It Mac and Schmitty in the Morning on Star one
on five point seven, Good more to Smitty, Good morning,
Welcome into a Monday here where. Man, what a gorgeous,
gorgeous weekend we just had.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Yeah, a shout out to my neighbor that hadn't closed
his spool yet. Small it was like eighty five. Yes,
thing was eighty eight on Saturday. We barely made it
through the Pulaski Parade. It was so hot.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
I love the idea of a husband that's like, no,
how do I swear? I think we're gonna get more?
You shot of it open just a little bit longer. Yeah,
you just had to be outside and enjoy it. I
got to go to a Michigan football game with my son,
had a blast and got a wicked sunburn. That felt
like the right way to add the last big eighty
degree weekend. But this week it starts where we need
(00:55):
some rain, I know, especially up there in the Rockford area.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Smitty, well, it's gonna cool down. Forget the rain tomorrow,
today's eighty something, tomorrow sixty something. So if you've been
waiting for the sweater weather, here we go. Welcome to it.
We're gonna have a lot of fun this morning because
comedian Brian Reagan is coming to GLC Live at twenty
mon row. We love a good comedy show and we're
gonna get you hooked up at seven thirty this morning.
He's fantastic, it really is.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
And on top of that, it is that time of
the year where basically every sports is in play all
at once, especially when you got to playoff baseball like
our Tigers right now. But that means the return of
hockey and our Grand Rapids Griffins their home opener a
little bit later on this month, October seventeenth, going to
be there at Van Andel Arena you to try and
make this another run at a Calder Cup this year.
(01:41):
We'll have those tickets for you, a four pack for
the family every day this week eight fifteen, where we
play battle at the sex.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
It's the Celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Well, if you missed the breaking news that came down
Friday evening, did he send Tints to just over four
years in federal prison, longer than what he wanted. His
legal team was asking the judge for a fourteen month
sentence on those two counts of a man conviction, while
prosecutors were pushing for eleven years behind bars. Did he
(02:16):
ultimately given fifty that's five zero months, required to pay
a five hundred thousand dollars fine, but did not have
any restitution imposed. After announcing the sentence, the judge did
have some words about these strong women who testified against
Diddy about their quote unquote horrific stories. We did hear
part of the letter that Ditty wrote to the judge.
(02:38):
He did express serious regret and apology to Cassie, hoping
that he did not inflict any further physical or emotional
distress on her. The hearing lasted several hours, So fifty
months is what he will.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Get, fifty months after they went for eleven years. And
I'll be honest, I think, like most people, when all
of these stuff, all the charges came out, and then
all of the witness testimony and everything else, I thought
that he was going to jail forever. Schreddi Yeah, not
gonna lie.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I really did, no, man, He's already spent over a
year in jail, and that will be credited as time served.
Taylor Swift continues to be riding that high of her
new album, and we saw a new video come out
over the weekend, dropping the video for the Fate of Ophelia,
a song which she likens herself to the character from
that famous Hamlet play, and the entire song is really
(03:29):
based around Travis Kelcey kind of saving her from that fate.
But this is very cool. She reunited with all of
her Era's tour dancers. She said this is the first
time everyone had gotten back together since that tour ended.
She made sure each individual scene was a different story,
revealing they had everything shot in just one take. You'll
(03:51):
see cuts from one scene to the other, but everything
was done exactly like a live show would have been done.
In her Instagram post, she wrote, I wanted each one
takes scene to feel like a live performance and remind
us all of how it felt to be at those
shows together, making every moment count. It's a journey through
the chaotic world of show business. It also happened to
be Travis Kelsey's birthday over the weekend, and quite a
(04:15):
few Swifties made sure to pop into the comments to
wish him and his Redwood forest a happy birthday. Finally,
singer Bad Bunny is having a lot of fun with
some of the haters that are not necessarily looking forward
to his Super Bowl halftime show. Bad Bunny making a
return to Saturday Night Live as a host over the
(04:36):
weekend with this as part of his opening monologue.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
I'm doing the Super Bowl half done show, and.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I'm very happy.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
I'm very happy, and I think everyone who's happy about it.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
Even folks news bad Bunny.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
This is my favorite musician and he should be the
next president.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Just funny, lighthearted. Clearly none of these haters or trolls
online are stopping him from being really, really excited about
this big deal coming.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I was gonna say, even in that opportunity to have
a spot after you've heard a lot of people talking
about how they wish you weren't doing the Super Bowl show.
I liked that he just took the high road.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Just play all right, all of your celeb Scoop at
West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Is Dominal five point seven. It's Mack and Schmidty feeling
good right now, and I am looking to put you
in the right frame of mind to tackle this day.
Maybe the Lions set your soul at ease after they
got their fourth win in a row yesterday over the Bengals,
or perhaps you look elsewhere for that. Some people Schmiddy
loved to get themselves listening to ASMR. Do we know
(05:44):
what that is? ASMR is those like sound videos that
people make where their nails.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Kind of against the microphone.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Is saymr Autonomous Sensory Meridian response if you need to know,
But now I want you to turn down anything else
that's going on around you and enjoy twenty seconds of
A'man Ross Saint Brown, the Detroit Lions star receiver, providing
you with arsb ASMR. This is awesome.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Welcome to airsb ASMR. Sit back, relax. There are several
triggers to that value to your relaxation time. Give you
a little load taper faide.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Imagine that's much better the sounds of a low taper
fade given to you by Aman Ross Saint Brown. Pretty funny.
It was actually the Lions putting that out on Saturday
night together with little Caesars of just giving you a
moment of calm before getting ready to watch the Lions
kick some butt yesterday. But pretty funny, all right.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
A Spanish teacher at Ionia Middle School is using TikTok
to travel. Craig Gurney aka Send Your Gurney to his
Spanish students, has officially raised enough money he need to
help sixteen kids travel abroad, demonstrating the power of culture
and community. So he actually started back over the summer.
When he realized that TikTok will pay you for popular videos,
(07:12):
he thought, why not? This could be fun. Gurnie now
has more than sixty two thousand followers, but more importantly,
he has completely opened up a new way for people
in the community to help fund kids learning. He said,
it's something he never expected to happen.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
It's just fun.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
It's like a wait for an introvert to be extroverted,
and I'm a little introverted at times.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
But then people started.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Reaching out and said, well, I would like to pay you.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
How can I help you?
Speaker 4 (07:36):
And I thought okay, and then they started, will you
start a go fund me, I'd like to contribute to
your goal funm and I was completely blown away at
how much money I received. People want to help students travel,
people want to help students with their education, and people
just kept stepping up and they told me, we want
to help we just didn't know how, and you gave
us that platform to help. And that's what really opened
(07:56):
my eyes that there are great people in this world
that are willing to help. They just need to know how.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
They just need to know how. He tells what TV.
His goal is to inspire his students to become global
citizens that become an active part of their world. And
how fun that we're part of a community right here
in this small town that makes that happen. It's pretty amazing.
I've got all the info up. If this is something
that strikes her fancy, and you're like, hey, I would
give West Michigan Star dot.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Com, movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Let's all go ahead and act shocked. Taylor Swift not
only dropped the biggest album of the year so far
on Friday, but AMC Theaters has released her surprise Cinematic Experience.
The official release party of A Showgirl made cinematic history. Yes,
biggest album debut event in cinema history, and that was
(08:52):
only opening day domestic sales. That does not actually include
the entire weekend. Literally, just the start of Friday show
shows broke the record no Thursday previews and no morning shows.
That means her first movie showing started at three pm
on Friday, and she had already pulled in a jaw
dropping fifteen point eight million dollars. As of later that night,
(09:16):
Domestic weekend box office forecasts were about thirty million for
this thing, and you could see videos all over the
Internet of packed theaters and just the swifties going wild. Yeah,
(09:43):
Leonardo DiCaprio and Dwyane Johnson ate her dust at the
box office.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I gotta say, my daughter, my wife, and my daughter's
five friends all went to the Starletar five point seven
release party of A Showgirl at AMC eighteen over there
on Alpine. I gotta say they absolutely loved it. Oh
so cool to see the behind the scenes making of
a video that Taylor not only directed, but she wrote
the whole thing and basically the entire ninety minutes is
(10:12):
a love letter to the making of that music movie
The Fate.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Of Ophelia, And that is actually what is on our
site right now, West Michigan Star dot com where you
can see a bunch of that behind the scenes look.
Britney Spears has fans very concerned after she says she
hurt her knee after falling at a friend's house. Another
kind of odd cryptic post from Britt over the weekend,
saying her boys had to leave and go back to Mao.
We remember she's been working on getting some more visitation
(10:37):
time with them, and then simply said, pist, I fell
down the stairs at my friend's house. It was horrible.
My knee now snaps out every now and then, not
sure if it's broken, but I did snap it back
in thank you oo. So we don't have a video
of that happening or anything like that, but again kind
of just the fans rallying going, but like who's around
(10:59):
you right now to make sure all of that is
indeed okay? And it was the perfect call. Over the weekend,
New England taking on Buffalo in one of the NFL
matchups when a ball thrown by Josh Allen actually made
its way into the crowd and that band took full advantage, piecing.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Out it's a catch there.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
Oh, he's gone, Milano, Milano's gonna go. He's in row ten,
he's in row fifteen. He might get a beer. Mala,
where are you going, man, that's your moment. Milano or
forty led by Allen. He's gonna take it the distance.
Maybe it wasn't his seat, Maybe he doesn't want to
be on TV.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
He's gone.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
So that was Mike Triico on the call. It was
a fan wearing a Milano jersey and then his buddy
wearing an Allen jersey. Was like, you could see them
look absolutely shocked and then just sprint out of the
stadium with the ball. It was beautiful.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Well, you were just talking about that at the Michigan
game when they kicked a field goal and it went
over the netting and so somebody behind the field goal
caught it. And I said, honestly, if that were me,
I'd want to keep the ball. I'd want to leave
because he.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Can't through it.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I was like, yeah, this ball would be mine.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
All right, Ill of your celeb scoop at West Michigan
start off on good morning to you, all right, So
forget the dating apps? Would you join an app to
meet moms? Okay, let's not be weird. This could be interesting,
but I'm curious if someone's ever used it. So over
the weekend, my brother and sister in law came into town.
They've got a year and a half old son, my nephew,
(12:26):
and she was telling me about something called the Peanut
App and I was like really, and she said, well,
I just want to I just went on my first
peanut date and I was like, I've never heard of this.
So the Peanut app is designed for moms to meet
other moms, schedule play dates, or share stories or ask questions.
She's like, you can literally do everything on here. I
(12:48):
had a mom reach out because I knew of a
breast milk bank in the area, and she was like,
how does it work? Can I give? Is there a
way to receive? Like how all of that is in
this app? But it is still very similar where you
swipe left, you swipe right, you put down kind of
your personal profile is the ages of your kids. There's
parents on there that have kids with severe food allergies
(13:11):
and they're like, it'd be great to have a playdate
with someone else that has the same kind of food situations.
I looked at this and I thought this is so
cool because I feel like we all talk post twenty five.
It feels very hard to make adult friends. It really is.
And this she's gone on three different Peanut dates with
three different moms, and I'm like, how do they go?
(13:33):
And she's like, it's awesome. I'm actually gotten really tight
with the second woman that I met. She has a
little guy who is four months older than my nephew.
She said, We've gone to the playground, We've gone to
this free concert in the park. She goes, but I'm
nervous because I think we're going to take the next step.
And I'm like, what's the next step? She goes, I
think we're going to have them over to our house.
(13:54):
And it's so wild to hear the way she's it's
like a dating app, it really is. And you're doing
all of this background on these people because you want,
obviously to get along with the parents. Are our kids
gonna get along? She went out like got a new outfit.
She made sure that, like my nephew, Ledger was like
ready to go the special snacks.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Does this come with like sort of those same dating
website cruxies where you feel like people are putting for
maybe the best presentation of themselves instead.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Of a true looked this up to get some feedback
on it, people asking who's been on Peanut and this
one mom said, I've been on Peanut for nearly a year.
I've met some really amazing women. However, don't get discouraged
when moms don't respond. I have swiped right on quite
a few moms who have also swiped right on me,
and then they've kind of left me on red and
(14:45):
ghosted me. She said, the problem is that with moms
it's very busy, so you might be getting a message
three or four weeks later that's like, yeah, I would
love to meet up. But I'm so curious about these
kinds of things because this is my friend did something
very similar on bumble. Bumble has a friendship side of
the app, not dating, and she has met three of
(15:07):
her best friends in San Francisco on the bumble app.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
I agree with you one hundred percent that it's weird
finding new friends as adults. It winds up being your friend,
your kids, friend's parents.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Have at the times you don't like to be honest.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Yeah, sometimes sometimes it works out great, and maybe your
kids wind up not liking each other and then it
gets awkward for a whole other reason. This is really interesting, though,
to just put it on the moms. The part that
creeps me out about it shimiddy though, is the swipe left,
swipe right. I'll be honest, I can't get over the
idea of looking at someone and just snap judging them
as a parent right then and there.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
See, I think it's more you're judging the kids, Like
I'm wondering, do you have I don't know if she
has pictures of your kids on the app. But the
other thing too, is like the dads have nothing like
I think it would be so weird to see you
on this app, like I'm a like, because it would
it would come off like you this guy's out like
trolling for tail. You know, it's kind of weird. But
(16:03):
I'm I'm curious if you're a parent, you would you
ever try something like this app? Have you? And how
do you do it? Because she joined this app and
now that she's made a couple of friends, she's gonna
put my brother on it with her. I like it, well,
but he doesn't have dad friends, and like, what do
you do friends?
Speaker 2 (16:23):
I got to be really really like.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
It is you guys want to be able to sit
home and do absolutely nothing kind of that's lame.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
My thing is like I just don't have time for
the friends that I already have. I feel guilty all
the time that I don't spend.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Yeah, but this is like going out with your kids.
This is like, hey, let's meet up with the family
six one six, four five eight one oh five seven.
If you're a good parent and want to be active
in your child's life, would you join an app like this?
Or have you ever had an experience where you are
dating for adult friends? I would love to hear some
feedback on it, because I might join. I looked, I
(16:57):
looked at a few women in my area. Did you
like I did?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Look okay? So when you when you reject them, are
you swiping left right? I'm sorry, you're swiping left? You're
swiping left? What made you swipe left at a couple
of a couple of people?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
No, I didn't. I didn't do any of the swipe
bank I was just able to preview it and kind
of see who's on thet'll breaking interesting.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Here are the facts with human torch was denied at bankload.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Let's make it happen. Getting into the week's very best
at well.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
A black Swan named mister Terminator has been evicted from
a Stratford upon Avon's Lake in England after attempting to
drown more than twenty other swans by swinging its neck
and keeping them underwater.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
His name is mister Terminator. What did you expect? Schmitty?
New Florida mom wins gaming tournament while holding five day
old baby. This is insane. A Florida woman known as
Legion what Immortal Combat exceled tournament on Saturday while holding
her five day old baby after an emergency C section
(18:02):
after her uterus nearly ruptured during delivery. Unbelievable. She had
to beat her husbands all of the above, all for
twenty eight dollars an entry into another video game turn.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Okay, I was gonna say after that I'd be playing
video games for those medical bills too. Adye, a college student,
has incriminated himself after allegedly confessing to ax of vandalism
to chat GPT. A nineteen year old at Missouri State
University arrested and charged with felony property damage after asking
chat GPT how much trouble am I in for this?
(18:37):
And will I go to jail? They were even able
to geo locate his phone and time stamp it, so
they knew exactly what and when and where he did it?
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Who knew AI was at narc ad? Bye Schmid. A
woman damages Little Caesar rest Little Caesar's Restaurant after being
charged one dollar for extra sauce. Brianna Haynes called it
an order. When she came to pick it up, she
asked for extra sauce, the worker explained it would be
a dollar charge, and she flipped out, causing one thousand
(19:05):
dollars worth of damage. Yeah, I mean, honestly, the crazy
bread is legitimate. Godbye.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
And a psychology student says a new study out proves
the smarter a man is, the harder it is for
him to get a girlfriend. I bring this up because
those of you that are married just went, oh, okay, okay.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
That hurt all right. Portland organizers plan emergency naked bike
ride to protest federal troops. Portland activists are organizing an
emergency naked bike ride with hundreds of expected riders to
protest the Trump administration's deployment of federalized National Guard troops
to the city.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Yeah, they do that every year for the regular time, right.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Honestly, though, if you see, you know, hundreds of people
biking towards you naked, you are going to turn around
and run in the other direction. I don't care how
tough you are. That's this week's best headlines. You're seeing
ay good ones out there, make sure you send them
our way West Michigan.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
Starck.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
It's the celebrities goop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Well, I was watching this story unfold over the weekend,
kind of in real time, and it is wild. Former
NFL star and now broadcast commentator Mark Sanchez hit with
three misdemeanor charges for his role in a violent altercation
with a truck driver that left Mark with stab wounds.
(20:32):
So here's the deal. Apparently, surveillance footage shows Sanchez approaching
a delivery driver who was unloading frier oil from his
truck at a hotel loading dot. This went down on
Saturday in Indiana. Surveillance footage shows Sancha's walking to the
driver's side door opening and having some kind of conversation
(20:54):
with the driver for several minutes. Then the driver hit
made a beeline for hotel secure, Sanchez chased him. Then
you can see them exchanging words before the confrontation turns physical.
Sanchez grabbed the victim, through him against the wall, was hitting, punching,
and this truck driver happened to be armed with a
(21:14):
knife and in self defense, he's claiming stabbed Sanchez multiple times.
Sanchez was taken to a hospital. Here's a piece of
that nine one one audio maybe.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
One three one out of one five to nine person
just assaulted.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Two four one was Washington Street at the Western Hotel.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
There's a lot for four you can this person.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Stabbed for now.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
The NFL commentator released from the hospital early yesterday, a
little more than twenty four hours after he was stabbed.
According to authorities, he is going to be hit with
battery resulting in injury, public intoxication, unlawful entry of a
motor vehicle, and they were saying from eyewitness reports he
(21:54):
wreaked of booze when this was going down. It's absolutely insane.
So far, the NFL has had anything publicly. Obviously we're
not going to be hearing him call games for a bit,
but this is pretty wild. He was in the NFL,
playing four games across four different teams. He was scheduled
to commentate on the Colts Vegas game yesterday. Obviously not there.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
This is insane. The part that surprised me though, is
because they have a photo of the alleged victim in this,
the man who actually did the stabbing of Mark Sanchez,
and he looks.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Terrible, absolutely beaten to a Ye.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, and so I can't believe when I saw this
that the guy has only been charged with three misdemeanors.
I have a feeling that those are going to be
upgraded at some point in time.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Police said they are still very much investigating this and
they're working to find more footage. Apparently there weren't a
ton of cameras around in the alleyways where some of
this went down, so they are still working on that.
The singer Charlie XCX seems to have responded to Taylor
Swift's rumored diss track off her new album, simply stating,
guess who's back in the studio. So remember this is
(22:58):
really wild for Swifties because Taylor and Charlie used to
be super super tight. In fact, Charlie toured with her
back in twenty eighteen. They did some reputation collaborations together.
But if you listen to Life of a Showgirl, there
seems to be a song called actually romantic that kind
of maybe has some beef with the two. Charlie is
now married to one of the band members from nineteen
(23:19):
seventy five. Of course, that is Taylor's ex boyfriend. A
lot of Swifty's thinking that maybe Charlie was not super
supportive in that breakup. We'll leave it to Charlie to
simply post over the weekend, I'm back in the studio.
Oh my god, this is going to be so much fun.
You're gonna love what I have to come.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
Which can literally mean anything. And it's smart of her
to capitalize off of this, but every Swiftybee will be
waiting to see if she responds.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Speaking of Life of a Showgirl off to quite a
start on its first day of release Friday, two point
seven million copies in just traditional album sales across all
of the versions that Taylor has given us. That is
Taylor's biggest week ever, second largest sales week for any
album in the modern era since we began tracking data
(24:07):
back in nineteen ninety one. Only larger sales week in
that timeframe was Adele's twenty five. But no worries, Taylor
will probably be smashing that soon.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Whose twelfth album is as relevant as this. That's all
I kept thinking about, is like, who has their twelfth
studio album have the entire world hanging on every lyric.
It is just unbelievable and never seen before.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
It's Taylor's world. We're simply living in it. All right,
all of your celebscoo but West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (24:36):

No, well, buddy, buckle up. It's an experience your first
time flying up there, getting to look out the window
and see those clouds. But it can turn into a
nightmare real fast if you're sitting next to the wrong person. So, Kayla, Zaden,
gotta tell me. One hundred guys were asked to name
the worst person to be seated next to on an airplane.
(25:56):
What's the top answer?
Speaker 3 (25:58):
A crying baby?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Crying baby, Zadan? Do you have any brothers or sisters?
Two sisters? Are they older or younger? Older? Older? Well,
I can tell you at one point in time, you
probably drove them nuts with your crying, for sure. And
whether it's a car, an airplane, you're stuck in an elevator.
A crying baby's never never something you want to deal with,
(26:21):
especially when it's not yours. Crime babies the top answer, guys, Yeah,
nicely done, Zayden. You're gonna get to go check out
the Griffins first home game of the season. Dude, congrats,
thank you, thank you, you are so welcome. Gonna be
a blast October seventeenth as the Griffins take on the
Manitoba Moose, don't you know. And you guys are gonna
(26:42):
be there with four tickets and we'll do it all
week long. Battle of the Sexes. Gets you in here
on Star one oh five point seven. Have a great Monday, guys.
Thank you. Good morning to you. It's Mack and Schmitty
and I feel a tiredness this morning, Smitty that I
don't think I felt in years.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
We both do because we both had the six experience
over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
WHOA, So as your kids get a bit older. I
didn't think that there could be so much about parenting
babies and toddlers that you could forget just because it's
such a focal point of every moment of your life
in that age. But that's not true at all. And
every parent whose kids get older or grandparents who haven't
had to deal with that in a long time, who
(27:22):
suddenly are watching an infant or a toddler, you're like, oh, yeah,
I remember this. Dear God, please pray for me. That's
how it was. My sister let us enjoy her daughter,
my niece Izzy, all weekend long. We're talking Friday night
all the way till last night at like seven eight
o'clocks middy, So we had her for everything.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
And how old is she?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
She has eighteen months? She is eighteen months old. She's mobile,
Which is such the hard part because that's the first
thing that hit me in a wave was simply that
you do not remember what it's like to have every
single moment of your mental energy expended to just thinking
(28:05):
one thought, what is this child doing right now?
Speaker 1 (28:09):
What are they choking on? What did I not baby proof?
What does their wingspan reach?
Speaker 2 (28:13):
What are they sticking in their mouths? What did they
just pick up? What did they pull out of that drawer?
Like it is non stop having to just focus in.
Do you think you're gonna sit down on the couch?
You can't sit down on a couch. Are you out
of your mind? The second that you do, that kid
is in the other room going through your bedroom, dresser
drawers and stuff like that. And then that didn't even
(28:34):
include all the diapers, and then the overnights where you
know what you're away from home. Guess what needs to happen.
You need to come in bed and snuggle it up
with whatever adult is willing to soothe your needs until
you fall back asleep again. And that was my wife
on Friday night, and that was me on Saturday night.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
And do you really sleep because you've got this tiny
thing in your bed and you're like, I could roll
over it end you.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
Honestly, I was dead out smitdya.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Oh my gosh, I could never My wife.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Struck me hard enough that there was no way I
was going to be sleeping through my parental duties that
have been thrust upon there. But there was so much
that immediately I was like, I completely forgot how difficult
this was like. And I can't imagine doing that as
a grandparent like my parents have been doing for the
last several years. After your kids are literally grown, you
haven't dealt with anything like that. And then your first
(29:23):
child has their baby and you're like, oh, I can't
wait to watch my grand baby. Uh huh, yeah you can,
because it's imposting.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
I care since start till they were like four or five,
they did they didn't do it, I just because, honestly,
and this isn't anything against a grandparent or whatever. I
was just nervous about it. I'm like, there is a
lot to do here. You are on your feet twenty
three hours of the day, and that's a lot to
ask from somebody who has not done it in thirty
plus years. My nephew in town over the weekend. He
(29:50):
is twenty months old, and the biggest thing I forget.
You can't negotiate. They don't understand what you're saying. You
cannot make sensible arguments to them. I have a four
and a seven year old. I can look at them
and say, hey, you're not having that snack unless you
have the apple we talked about. He just goes ah,
like I forgot. You can't have conversations with little kids
(30:13):
like that. You are so right, because don't you get it.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
One of the biggest meltdowns we had all weekend was
as my niece is sitting there screaming, Doggie, doggie, and
I'm trying to figure out why because she's been playing
with the dogs the whole time. It was because the
dog stopped licking her toes and she just wanted the
puppy to keep licking her toes. But couldn't at all.
That turned into a five minute long screaming meltdown.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
Yep, we simply wouldn't open the slider door, so he
would just walk into the glass repeatedly.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
Oh man, all I'm saying crazy is that for all
the baby and toddler parents out there, the grandparents that
are getting them for the first time. God speed, God speed,
Stebono fine point seven. It's Mack and SCHMIDI I see
that sun shining out there. We're bringing things up too.
Feeling good right now. And stubenho fine point seven. What's
going on? All right?
Speaker 1 (30:58):
So we're talking about the big once again for our
Lions yesterday taken down the Bengals, but it was an
especially great moment for running back David Montgomery. So David's
sister Kekey. Of course, they both grew up in Cincinnati,
but a year and a half ago she had a
pretty awful car crash.
Speaker 7 (31:18):
A year and a half ago on Valentine's Day, his
sister Keke was in a horrible car accident and she's
currently paralyzed from the neck down. This is the first
time today she has been able to see him play
in the person in the press.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
The smile on his face, the smile on her face.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
It was unbelievable. The first time Kiki has gotten to
see her brother play in person ever, and how perfect
that it would lead to a touchdown. We are so
happy that it's gone to David Montgomery, Engineer Gibson, so
happy the Keki was here.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
To see that today.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
It's so moving, you guys, and to see the smiles,
to see the absolute love between this brother and sister.
I think it was cooler than the Lions win itself.
West Michigan Star.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Yeah, I mean that was maybe his best game with
the season so far. To do it in front versus
just that's very cool. All right, Mandy, Let's keep it
in football and keep it even local. But it was
Saturday morning. Millions of people wake up Saturday, flip on
ESPN before college game day. And if you're there a
couple of minutes early, well you're still watching Sports Center
and that's Sports Center Top ten. Well, the number one
(32:21):
play this week was from right here in West Michigan.
It was actually Hudsonville versus Rockford in Rockford Friday night.
Want to be an incredible game that came down to
the wire with Hudsonville getting a thirty five to twenty
eight win, all because of Lawson Weber bringing down an
insane pass from the Hudsonville quarterback that made the number
(32:43):
one play in the nation on Sports Center's Top ten
Number one.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
It's high school football again.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Friday night lights in Michigan, the d Hudsonville in Rockford.
Speaker 5 (32:54):
Look at the bottoms, is say, Jadinson Studio? Are these
schools any good?
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Jason, Hudsonville and Rockford.
Speaker 5 (33:00):
You're from Michigan. No, all right?
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Loss and whoever?
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Insane one handigrap. We know that play was good, insane
one hundred grab is right. This is basically one of
the best catches you'll ever see. And to have it
be to win a game like that, imagine going to
school today for loss in Schmidty.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Yeah. By the way, I don't know who you are, Jason.
Rockford and Hudsonville are very very good. They're really good.
And it was insane. We we had zero points at
halftime and Rockford got that close to coming back. It
was unbelievable at that stadium Friday night.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
The number one play in all of America. That's pretty cool.
Congratulations to Loss and Weber and the Hudsonville football team
getting that win there. But I'll put the video up
for you West Michigan Star dot com and of course
we're always here to share the great things that are
going on out there with you. We'll do it again
tomorrow six forty five and nine twenty here on Star
Mack and Schmidt in the morning weekdays starting at six
am on Star one oh five point seven
