to know to get you day started.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
All right? Want to play a fun game? Yeah, it's
a on this day in what year? Question?

Speaker 4 (00:24):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (00:25):
I love that. I love that game.

Speaker 5 (00:26):
At the beginning here, I'm going to give you something
that happened, and you have to think about what year
it happened, and I'll tell you at the end of it.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Don't google in your car or if you're running this
radio board, don't. I will not google.

Speaker 5 (00:38):
In what year did Michael Jackson dangle his baby over
the rail? Do you remember the balcony incident? Hung the
baby over the you know, and said, yeah, take a picture.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
What was that all about?

Speaker 5 (00:51):
A baby's name was Blanket at the time. What year
did that happen? All right, I'll tell you at the end.
The Orioles are trading Grayson Rodriguez to the Angels for
Taylor Ward, who hit thirty six home runs last year.
So that's good, right, I mean it's did we as
a team hit thirty six?

Speaker 3 (01:10):
No, yes we did.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
He plays left field, he's only been an angel, so
hopefully he'll be a good oriole.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Okay, we'll see.

Speaker 5 (01:17):
Weird story on the eastern block between Peer four and
Peer five. Yesterday a driver drove into the Inner Harbor
and had to be rescued. Apparently she's in critical condition.
I don't know if there was a medical situation that
something that made her drive into the I don't know.
Investigation is ongoing. So Cambridge Dictionary has named Paris social.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
It's twenty twenty five ward of the year. Okay.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
This is when you have invested a great deal of
social emotional like feelings towards someone who you don't actually know.
They're using Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey as an example.
People love them, they think that they're like friends with them,
but they're not.

Speaker 6 (02:04):
Right.

Speaker 5 (02:04):
Parasocial Okay, so if you hear that word, and you
probably will a lot going forward.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
That's fond to be friends with Taylor Swift and Travis
Kelsey maybe because they can afford to pay for dinner.

Speaker 5 (02:15):
Yes, the sentiment the Senates in the House trying to
pass this Jeffrey Epstein thing. The House voted four hundred
and twenty seven to one, which super suspicious, I think.
And then Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer says the Senate's
gonna unanimously agree to approve the bill as well.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Well, no one wanted to be accused of not being transparent.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
That's why that's what they said. Hmm.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
There's got to be something more at play here. Okay,
four and twenty seven to one. Yeah, Also, is that
one guy. He's from Louisiana.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
By the way.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah, And they were saying that he's a whacko. He
was being attacked for being the only guy.

Speaker 5 (02:56):
But I think it's weird that they all voted like
they couldn't agree. Take yourself back three or four weeks ago.
These people couldn't agree on anything, and now they're just
unanimously agree on something.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
What's up right? Something's going on?

Speaker 5 (03:10):
And then lastly, President Trump referred to a reporter as
Piggy on an Air Force one press briefing the other day,
and then yesterday in the Oval office, this happens.

Speaker 6 (03:22):
It's not the question that I mind, it's your attitude.
I think you are a terrible reporter. It's the way
you ask these questions. You start off with a man
who's highly respected asking him a horrible, insubordinate and just
a terrible question. And you could even ask that same
exact question nicely. You're all psyched. Somebody psyched you over

(03:46):
at ABC, and you're gonna psych it. You're a terrible
person and a terrible reporter.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Okay, everybody, Okay, take a deep breath. We're gonna be
all right.

Speaker 2 (04:01):

Some Lamy Wilson CMA hostess tonight. Now I shouldn't say hostess,
it's host right, correct, Yeah, that's improper to say hostess's.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
And this is the first time in I think thirty
four years.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
You got to go back to nineteen ninety one Bethany,
the last time a woman hosted the CMA Awards alone
by herself, Like, I think she's gonna be able to
handle it, don't you.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Michael Jay's Music City Minute in sixty seconds that.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Well, let's catch up with Luke Colins. He's one of
the biggest stars. He's up for Entertainer of the Year,
and Luke was asked in Nashville yesterday, Luke, is it
harder to keep up the momentum now that you're on top?
In other words, what's harder getting there or staying there?

Speaker 6 (06:58):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (07:00):
For me, now it's like not pressure. It's more like.

Speaker 9 (07:04):
You just like it's so it's a lot of work
to keep it going right. So in my mind it
was always like it's so much work, like getting the
plane in the sky right, like getting it to like,
oh my god, you're at the top, and it's like
it's all like this exciting like ramp up to like
where you're trying to go right, and then you're at
the top and it's like now you've been there for
a little bit and then you're going, well.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
Gosh, it's just as much work to just stay up here.

Speaker 9 (07:27):
But there's no like there's like the all the like,
oh my gosh, like we have so much to accomplish,
and then you're up there and you're like, well, now
I gotta work twice as hard to just accomplish the
same thing that I've been doing for the last three
or four years. So it's like that can be like
figuring that out mentally is interesting, but it's fun.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
It's fine. I still enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
Well, we wish him good luck tonight. He's not predicted
to win Entertainer of the Year. Poor guy. I don't
know why. I mean, I think it's great, But the supercomputer,
says Lady Wilson. Our dedicated dozens say more Wallin's gonna win.

Speaker 3 (08:01):

Michael J and Bethany here at ninety three point one WDPOC.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
We're having some fun on CMA day.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Remember tonight eight pm you can listen to the CMA
Awards here a ninety three point one WDPOC.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
Pretty excited about that.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Now, Bethany and I were talking about an assumption, actually
your perception.

Speaker 5 (10:29):
Well, yesterday we had the story about quitting that we
were talking about, like people quitting their jobs and how
fifty seven percent of people know someone who's revenge quit
a job. And then I was thinking about the people
just in my circle, like in my life, and how
no less than seventy five percent of the.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
People that I know and talk to regularly want to
quit their job.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
Have you ever revenge quit? In other words, so that
we were clear that just means where you you're I mean,
how did you just walk out? Are you do something wild?
I confess I've never told this story. Real quick, I
will confess. I was working at a radio station in
San Jose, California. This is back in the eighties, and

(11:14):
the program Doctor was on Mine altering products, and everybody
at it was just drugs, were so complacent. Just everywhere
it was crazy, and music meetings and like all over
the place, just nuts. And I wasn't really digging working
in this group of people because that's not my that

(11:35):
is not my crowd, that's not me. So that was
the first problem. But long story short, I asked him
when he hired me the preceding year if I could
have the week of Christmas off because I was going
to fly home to Baltimore. This was in California, and
so he I'd asked him several several times, we talked
about it, and he just blew it off. Well, the

(11:55):
week of Christmas comes, the schedule goes up, I'm on
the air and I was I already have an airplane ticket,
and so I quit. I just walked out. I mean,
that's it's super unprofessional. I had so much guilt after
I did that for years and years, and about fifteen
years later, I see the guy that was the boss yeah,

(12:16):
at a convention and I'm like, I got to talk
to him. I go over to him and I said, hey,
you probably don't remember me, and he's like, oh, yes,
I do. Oh yeah, So I apologize, he said, don't
worry about it. He's like, I should have told you
that you were off, and it was just it was just,
you know, it was a crazy time.

Speaker 9 (12:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
But so I'm just saying this story because I don't
know if I recommend revenge quitting.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
I think it's like, it's not the way to handle things.
You might regret it later on.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
Well, it's also just not the way to handle it,
you know what I mean. I would tell my kids
the same thing, like, you got to have even if
you're in an uncomfortable situation, you don't like your job, whatever,
handle it professionally, you know.

Speaker 6 (12:57):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (12:57):
So, I want to know how many people right now
driving to work want to quit? Do you fantasize about it?

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Do you think about it?

Speaker 1 (13:07):
You you think that three out of four people I
really do want to quit. I really do right this moment,
three out of.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Four prove me wrong. Seven seven ninety six two.

Speaker 5 (13:15):
Begin your message with higher hay or eight hundred three
two one thirty six ninety three, if you could, would
you quit today? I think I think the number is
wildly high.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
All right, we're gonna.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Find out and you can call and be anonymous as well.
At eight hundred three two one thirty six ninety three.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Things pretty much the same round neighbor steel shooting out
next Yuesday, boy steals. Let's a plan, but I got better.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Says.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Hello w POC. It's Michael J and Bethany. Go ahead,
you're in the air. What do you want to say?

Speaker 7 (14:09):
Yes, Hi, good morning. I wanted to comment on leaving
the work leaving the workplace and uh I. I left
a workplace earlier this year in March because it was
a toxic environment where I was physically getting sick and
about a third of the staff was revolving every four

(14:30):
or five months. So what I would say is I
agree with you. I gave my notice, you know, and
I gave my two weeks and it was automatically started
feeling better. The ambiance wasn't there, the environment wasn't there.
So what I say is if the heel is not there,
at your work, if your habit and beyond the environment

(14:51):
and the love is not there, if the heel's not there,
then I have to go all right.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
Well, I'm glad to hear you're doing all right, and
thank you very much for checking in with us. We
appreciate you. We all right. We literally have hundreds of
text messages. Wow, So let me just grab a couple
of quick lines here too. I mean, I've been doing the.

Speaker 7 (15:10):
Same thing for a long time, so sometimes I'm like,
it'll be nice to have a change of pace.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yeah, so he wants to quit. We got another guy here.
You say you want to quit, Go ahead.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
I've been thinking about that for about a year or so.
John from My name is John from Baltimore.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
I'm a big listener and I'm in love.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
With You're in love with Wilson. Oh yeah, we'll get
get in line.

Speaker 7 (15:38):
Listen to you. I've been listening to you.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
One more. Tell him radio that John wants to.

Speaker 5 (15:45):
Quit, all right, John says he's out. Well, Laney Wilson
likes people with jobs. I'm seeing Uh, yes, I'm out
bye with running MJ. I would quit today. If everything
in life wasn't so expensive, I would quit right now.

(16:06):
Definitely would not quit my job, says a net Someone says,
I absolutely would love to quit my job. This is
deb and I would quit today if I could. Let's see,
if my four to one K said I could, I
would walk out right now and never look back.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
So basically, you said three out of four people would
say they want to quit. I'd say it's a higher
ratio than that. Based looks like it's ninety percent. But like,
I don't know, I'm a middle school teacher. I want
to quit every single day. Teaching is not what it is.

Speaker 5 (16:36):
This is making me so sad because you know how
we always talk about how a lot of people are
feeling edgy, like when you go out in public, like
people are angry, people are beeping on the roads just
for no reason, Like people are on edge, and it's like, well, duh,
Like everybody hates their.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
Job, right, I don't know what are we gonna do
about it?

Speaker 1 (16:58):
That makes me feel that what we're doing maybe matters
a little bit more because while you're on your way
to your job, you get to at least have a
little fun with us. Yeah, right, And this gives us
a look into what's going on in your head. Hey,
I don't hate my job, but since my husband retired,
I hate my job. I think someone's envious that somebody

(17:21):
else is at home. I think that's what that's about.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
You can check into.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
We didn't care if people stud We make out in
a crowd somewhere, somebody tell us to get a room.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
It's hard to believe that was me and you.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
Now we keep saying that we're okay, but I don't
all settle for good not great. I missed the way
that it felt back.

Speaker 5 (17:51):
I mean.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
Ninety three point one do what do poc It is
the highlight of our day, Michael, jan and Bethany to
be able to spend time with you, and we hope
you feel the same where you at it.

Speaker 3 (18:07):
And are you thinking about quitting? That's the question this morning.

Speaker 7 (18:10):
I am driving to work and I'm calling in about
not wanting to do the work.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
Are you Are you thinking that you would quit if
you could right now?

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Actually I had that thought, but then I realized, as
I've got much older, that I enjoyed my work family
and I enjoyed my family, and being able to both.

Speaker 7 (18:32):
Has been a pleasure.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Right, So maybe it just comes with a little bit
of maturity.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
But we're hearing from a lot of people who have
been in their jobs for a long time and they
still want to quit. Bethany's got pages and pages literally
that have hit us in the last couple of minutes.

Speaker 7 (18:46):
Yeah, so I to understand the work environment.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
If that's that's more difficult.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
But I think at least in my career and I'm
in medicine, I've been able to change it up and
that has.

Speaker 5 (18:58):
Kept me active in it.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
Does any I think about the money part of it,
I'm like, yeah, I think that's why they're still going right,
you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Right, Like you have to like, we get it, you
gotta you gotta do it right, But I don't.

Speaker 5 (19:10):
It just makes me sad to think of all of
the people who if money wasn't an option, they'd be like,
see you later. But we are hearing from the other side.
A hairdresser says, I've been a hairdresser for thirty three years.
I love my job, but I would never not do
it even if I won the lottery. Our friend, attorney
Robert says, if people want to quit, they should, It's
bad for the employer and the employee. When it gets

(19:31):
to that point, and then he said, ps, I love
my job, right. And then we have a school bus
driver that says, I'm okay, but if I could afford it,
I would quit, And thanks for getting me through every day.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
You know, I understand what this guy is saying, Michael.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
K come him on, poor bake boy fants off and
get a job, say at work and make America pay again.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
That's what my dad would have said. I would say,
you know what I mean, like, you gotta go to work.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
It's like when you're a kid that was ground into
me as a kid, like it's your response ability. So
you know, you end up working in a job for
a long time and you don't even really think about it.
You just like, Okay, I gotta do my job. Keep
your head down, you know what I mean, Like you said,
make America great again. So there you go, a lot
of different opinions coming in.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
Well you can keep.

Speaker 5 (20:16):
Yours coming in. We love to hear from you. Seven
to seven nine six two. Begin your message with higher
hate or call eight hundred three two thirty six ninety three.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
And if you do want to quit today, find a way.
Is there a way to let's change the mental outlooks
that we can feel.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
Now just quit do it at ninety three point one
pc traffic.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
See that's the difference between Michael J and Methidy.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
But isay wow, I put a spin on it, insist.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
If you're not happy, you only live one you'll go
around one time. You're right about that. So yeah, you're right,
this is something you love. Yeah, you're right at least tolerate,
you know, right, all right?

Speaker 5 (20:49):
An accident on ninety five southbound at Fort McKenny Tunnel
has cleared, so that should be flowing a little bit
more freely now. But there's an accident on the inner
loop at Baltimore National like with two right lanes blocked
and things are stopping to go there for about twenty
minutes and then eight ninety five southbound before or it

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
