Speaker 1 (00:00):
In turn, John, and you're morning show Kiss.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Happy Wednesday, friends, Welcome to the show Interns.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
John is my name, chel Besaus, Hello, Hello Rose, Hello,
good morning. Got to Eric here, Hoodie Savera.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
We just need to hear from you A nine nine
three three eight to text DM's open at WYMUS Radio.
I personally think this number is got to be higher,
but coring to a new study, eighty percent of us
have left a big event early to beat traffic.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
I have definitely done that all the time. Yes, all
the time.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
And my friends will get annoyed if we go to
like maybe a concert or really anywhere, and I'm like,
can we just leave rightfour end so we can try
to get out and beat everything. They're like, why would
we not want to say until the very end? I
hate that I.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Couldn't even think of the last event, non working that
I stayed towards the end.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Of Yeah, I know me neither, especially like if you're
going on a cap one, love it, but like if
you parked, good luck. Yeah, it's just such a pain.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
And they get an uber and then like you ever know,
there's nothing worse than downtown somewhere, and you don't know
what streets are closed for the event, and it feels
like nobody else does either.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah, that's like the absolute worst walk so far. To
find a newer I'll.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Get anxiety where it's like if it's if it's a game,
there's like two minutes stuff like we really should we
should go in now?

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Yeah, because it's gonna be bad, they say.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
A third of those people said they've regretted it before metro,
missing a big encore, not seeing their team come back
for a win.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
I don't think that's happened.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
Okay, yeah, I don't think I've missed anything like that.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
But I'm also the guy tea before a concert, I'll
check out like setlist dot com or whatever it is
and see like yep, yep when the bathroom break is,
when like when the like not come back. Yeah, I've
done all the time. We should really go. Seventy four
percent say they go to more events if they need.
Traffic wouldn't be such a nightmare, well for sure, at
least said the Metro. Yeah kind of helps. But the

(01:42):
then like leaving downtown on Metro is a disaster.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
It's all it's a lot, it's a lot. I've done
it for like all kinds of events, multiple different ways.
No matter what, it's still a lot leaving. But if
you have a good time and everything it makes up
for it. It's just still it's still stressful.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Listen, if you ever go into a reno with me,
just you know I'm planning leaving yeah early. This is
kind of the vibe. Love your thoughts, You over Tax
