A SpaceX crew capsule successfully docked with the International Space
Station early yesterday morning, which brings four new astronauts into
the orbiting lab. Now, I actually saw a picture of
one of the astronauts on board the ISS welcoming the
new astronauts wearing an alien mask, which I just.
Speaker 4 (00:25):
Appreciate that humor.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
I think that's but this arrival now allows NASA astronauts
of Butch Wilmore and Sunny Williams, who have been stuck
in space for the last nine months, to finally.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Prepare for their return home. Crazy.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
So the new crew members will spend the next two
days familiarizing themselves with the station before Butch and Sunny depart,
and they are scheduled to leave tomorrow with the plants
splashdown off the coast of Florida. So finally coming home.
I hope there's a huge party party back for them.
There's a DC man that has been accused of using
his job at the Postal Service to steel checks, and
(00:59):
he has been found guilt tea.
Speaker 4 (01:00):
By a federal jury.
Speaker 3 (01:01):

Speaker 5 (01:38):
Catching cheeters War of the roses less than hour away.
They've been together seven months. I guess she travels a
lot for work. She came home in surprise in this
past weekend. He had not seem receptive of the surprise.
Is he cheating? Seven tenants?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Will do that?
Speaker 5 (01:52):
Not by the radio? Download the free iHeartRadio app. You
can search the station, listen live right there, or grab
the podcast. I thought this is interesting too. These psychologists
are talking about how restaurants trick you into spending more
money with many psychology, which is crazy I make I
guess it kind of makes sense, like nothing's done randomly. Yeah,
Like there's like whole books about the science of grocery
(02:14):
stores and like how they lay out each store and
it's like crazy crazy stuff. So not that surprised. And
they say for most restaurants, the goal is to drive
repeat business.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yes make sure.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Yeah, that means their top goal of restaurants for customers
to leave feeling satisfied.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
So if a restaurant encourages a diner to purchase more
than they want, they may over eat or feel bad
about wasting money or food.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
I think that's kind of care.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
Yeah, ma, if you feel like you got screwed over.
But if you like if they if the server is
like if I was you like four or five plates
and then it comes out and it's like, oh, you
were probably up charging.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Yeah, like a major up sell.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
They say if a bill is higher than customer intended,
their surely factor that final pression and choosing restaurants. So,
according to Delish, menus often obscure the prices, putting the
number last or dropping the dollar signs, so it reads
nine instead nine dollars.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah. Okay.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
So the goal of restaurants is to put food first,
the price second the customer's mind.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
One way they do this is by literally listing the
food first in the price second, which is fair, Like
can they mat restaurants with the prices first?
Speaker 4 (03:21):
I feel like that weird to me.
Speaker 6 (03:24):
Yeah, yeah, because you want to like see what you're
going to be ordered, like, you want to see the
food then to sign.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah, they say.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
Restaurants may also put the most expensive dishes in a
separate section, like within a box or printing a different
color font to bring into attention.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
That's what the fancy restaurants do.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Yeah, with like the steaks and that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
From the pasture and it's like cow.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
I that once, whereas it was like, you know, the
Smith family farms and it's like, oh it sounds great,
but it was like a meat practices and plant down
the street.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
It wasn't like a farm. Yeah, it was a lie
all right? Cool?
Speaker 6 (03:57):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (03:57):
They also places items on top of the menu because
of the primary effect, mean customers only read a first
few things in the list and not the rest.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
That is true. I am guilty of that.
Speaker 6 (04:06):
I feel like my brain doesn't work that way, though
I wouldn't be like, oh college, like psychologically I want this.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Yeah, and that's probably fair.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Because I know what I want when I go that restaurant.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yeah, that's true too. I feel like you probably at
least have an idea. Yea.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
They say some restaurants try to see dinaists by placing
slightly more expensive items in the top of the menu.
This makes all the other dishes appear to be more
bang for your book.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
That confuses me because if I went to a restaurant,
because all the fancy restaurants, I feel like they have
the page of all your entrees, but usually it's in
the middle where all the more expensive stuff is, and
then as the bottom asides and the top is just
like chicken.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
I feel like, at.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Least when I look at a menu, my eyes go
to the middle of the page first, especially if it
is like separated in its own box.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
So maybe that's why they put that there.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
But like, if I'm reading a menu from top to
bottom and I find something I like and it's towards
the top, I'm not reading the rest of the menu.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
So that could be another reason. Why they're putting more
expensive things the top.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
They say poor photos also can be uh downgrade. I'll
say this, I don't want photos unless it's like an
ethnicity I'm not positive about. If I can't read the language, oh,
then like a photo makes sense.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
But how often are there pictures on menus like some
diners have.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
I think sometimes if it's like again, if it's the
menus in like Greek, or if it's in Spanish and
I don't know that I need to.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
See look at here.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
But I feel like most chain restaurants would have pictures,
which I appreciate because sometimes I just want to look
at the picture and if it looks good.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I'm like, yes, waffle houses pictures. Yeah, classic establishment right there.
Damn Yeah.
