the country. Said Atlanta is gonnabreak records this holiday season. They expect

(00:22):
two point eight million people going throughUH in the first few days on Wednesday,
Tuesday, Today and Wednesday. Soit would be one of those yeah
right, yeah right, the morningthat was really poor planning on your part.
It is what it is. Thisis what well. I mean,
you guys do have three kids,so it's kind of like when you're talking
to the grandparents about watching the kids. You're like, so, here's the

(00:44):
deal. We could leave on theworst day ever, which would be so
much more difficult, or you couldkeep it for another extra three days on
each side, and which just travelwhen it's light easy. I guess that
that's a hard seal though. Butif you're on the road traveling and things,
you're like, you are just stuckto that Wi Fi. That's important
because otherwise you got to talk toyour family. Yeah, wants to do

(01:04):
that. I always feel like mywife is like when I'm driving and I'm
like trying to talk to her,She's like, hold on second, I'm
I think she's doing an emails.She's always playing Candy Crush. Yeah.
No, so like not interested intalking to me. Do you know what
level I'm on for these some ofthese games like you need to wait?
Okay, So those networks are importantwhen you're traveling, and that's why if
you haven't thought about it, orif you need a good gift for a

(01:25):
holiday, Boost Infinite is the networkto be on because they've got a brand
new technology where it will actually switchnetworks to find the best one among like
three. What you can do that? Yeah, it seems like squatting.
So if you're on some of theother yeah, I like that better.
I'm gonna go ahead and just hangout to that one. They look nice
if you're on some of the othernetworks and things like, you're on your

(01:45):
network, that's it, right.But boost Infinite allows the fourth wireless network
with modern technology for the next fiftyyears, and it'll actually jump between networks
to give you the best one.If you're on the road, that's gonna
be incredible. I feel like yougot to get in on this one early
because no one else is doing thiskind of technology, and I feel like
when they find out, they're gonnabe like, wait a minute, what's
happening. So they're just like comingover here and just like grifting off of

(02:07):
our Wi Fi. Yeah, thatworks, especially when you're going through like
mountains, are these weird places whereit's spotty coverage and your game freezes and
you're like, no, no,no, no, nothing worse than a
flat tire in a no network areawhere your kids are like I can't watch
Blippy and you're like, I amgoing to throw myself off this mountain here
in Tennessee. Boost infinite dot comor eight five five fifty five boosts that's

(02:29):
where you can figure out all thedetails on that. And to be a
part of the ninety four point nineYou guys, y'all were great. My
face to face all ninety four pointnine mood kimmyan otis ninety four point nine
the bull. It's mood Kimmy otis. Thanks for hanging out with us on
your Tuesday morning eight thirty. Thismorning, we got a special thing.
We're doing a little Thanksgiving celebration herein the studio. My son Ronan,

(02:50):
who's ten months old. He's cateringit so infant Thanksgiving, an array of
foods that he will eat on Thanksgiving. You're disgusting looking forward to that.
It's mood. Kimmy and Otis getthe six ten headlines right now with Kimmi
Karuba. Well, I will tellyou what the day after Thanksgiving is really
busy for aside from shopping in justa minute. But first, the FDA
is warning people not to eat candlopefrom brands including True Fresh all the in

(03:10):
Vineyard Fruit and Vegetable Company because ofa salmonella outbreak, which is so far
to get forty three people. SoI'm just saying, if you see it,
you don't know where it's from.Thank Yeah, I wouldn't wildly important
to mention that though. And here'swhy. Uh, yesterday or the day
before, I bought a little mixedfruit assortment from publics Now. I don't
know if those cantelopes in that dicedup came from that, but I had

(03:34):
my wife not said anything, Iwould have been dicing up candlope for my
son's once to day. Are wegonna find out on the show today?
Yeah? I find out where thankfully? So yeah, make sure because in
the mixed fruit things, you'll they'lljust be one slipped in there. Yep,
exactly. Also, nearly one infour people are hiding a financial secret
from their partner. On new studyshows thirty nine percent of adults who are
married or living with their partners saythey have kept a secret financially from their

(03:59):
current partner, and more than halfof those adults say financial cheating is as
bad as physical cheating. Told percentthat it's even worse than that. Every
time she goes to TJ. Macnoum. It's also spoken like someone who's never
been really cheated on, right,exactly. There's no way that that's worse,
right exactly. Okay. Also,pie obviously a huge essential part of
Thanksgiving, Although all the love goesto pumpkin this holiday season, that is

(04:25):
not the most popular pie. Applepie beats out pumpkin and then the chocolate.
All right, why what would youput it? Pumpkin? Sure,
I'm from the capital of the world. I agree, I'm an apple gross
Okay. So the day after Thanksgivingis one of the busiest days of the
year. Four plumbers, because peopleare putting stuff down their disposals that you

(04:46):
shouldn't be. There's also like toiletsand all that kind of stuffing toilet from
the hundred guests you have in yourhouse. Spokesperson for Rota Ruterers says it
is oh super busy day for them. Fun times. I enjoyed that job.
Guys, great plumb plumbers. Youguys are angels. Really things.

(05:08):
We really to your new Bull Morningshow. I'm having a great time to
listen to y'all. It's ninety fourpoint nine Bull, ninety four point nine
The Bull. Moot Kimmy notice withyou. Thanks for hanging out with us
sundry Tuesday morning. You can grabthat free iHeart app and get the rest
of the show on demand anytime youwant to take us on your adventures over
the holidays as well. I'm BrianMoot. You're but why news story?

(05:29):
I saw this one yesterday on AtlantaNews. First almost fell down laughing and
also like just behouldered in shock.And it's vera Connor, Atlanta resident goes
the subway, buys the sandwich shealways buys, and then gets hit with
a credit card charge of seven thousand, one hundred and twelve dollars and ninety
eight cents. First this was sevenone hundred and twelve dollars and ninety eight

(05:54):
cent. Can you imagine your yawsaw that? I mean what you're like,
Well, you gotta be thinking yourself, like, who's robbing me?
Like I got scammed? Someone's likestealing like my credit card in front.
I'm motised I would be I'd havean er bill. After looking at that
receipt, no cheaper. It turnsout it was just because of an incident
on the little digital scanner. I'mnot exactly what it normally costs the four

(06:16):
cent, but take a look atthe recet. I was like, oh
my god, how does this happen? Look at that number on the tip
line seven and five forty four.Those are numbers from her phone number.
I was like, oh my god, this is my phone number. I
must have been canned in the padand the screens fit changed. That's a
big mistake. She probably was,yeah, typing in her you know,
subway rewards number with her phone number, and somehow maybe she hit the enter

(06:41):
and it moved on to the tipor she started early so she's just typing
in the numbers. That's a ninetip. And if you're that subway cashier,
you just saw that happen, rightright, You just let it happen.
You're a jerk. Yeah, hecashed that out at the end of
the night, for sure. Butshe's contacted her credit card, she's contacted

(07:03):
the subway. Nobody will pay herback. They said it was her mistake.
So she's just I mean, technicallyit is. It is. Technically
she typed in the tip and shehit in her But I feel like it's
one of those things where you justcalled customer service and they were like,
yeah, we don't want to talkabout it, not knowing that this is
such a ridiculous mistake that it's goingto be so much bad press for you.

(07:26):
Anybody looks at it knows it's gotto be a mistake. It's a
lot of money, and you know, I just I'm not that big of
a tipper. I'm definitely not.Oh, but I was thinking to myself,
if I worked in Subway and Isaw that roll across, I need
the money. I don't know,maybe she's one of those people who wants

(07:49):
like the viral story of I tippedten thousand dollars knowing celebrities. I don't
know this lady. Maybe maybe it'sTyler Perry's cousin or no, they weird
places. There's one the viral story. Here's a different Tyler. Tyler Hobber
dancing to the Country on ninety fourpoint nine The Bowl, ninety four point
nine The Bowl. Thanks for beinghere with us. It's Moot, Kimmy
and Otis. I'm Brian Moot.One hour from now. We got a

(08:11):
little dunkin coffee for you. Getyour week. Rolling out of these holiday
weeks if you're working or getting readyto travel, can be a bit on
the rough side. Body of is. Otis Tiffany from my hometown in Beuford.
You work in retail, So what'sthe one pet peeve, the one
thing you'd tell customers. Yes,I'm actually an assistant manager at Big Lots

(08:33):
in Buford. But restroom etiquacy,yeah yeah, treat it like your own.
Yeah. Basically it is absolutely theworst. And you know you would
think that, I mean, Iknow it's kind of probably ten little sexist,
but you would see that men arethe most disgusting. Women are the

(08:54):
I'll tell it. The first tosay women are the most disgussing about.
That's why I don't use that.The reason why I quit home depot working
at home depot. I was workingat home depot in college and they made
me because the janitorial staff quit andI was working in the lot. They
made me clean the bathrooms and Iwent into the men's first, and I
was like, okay, fine.Then I shut down the women's and went
in there and I was like,I'm just quitting. I'm not doing this.

(09:16):
How is this worse? How areyou guys worse? I've walked into
a bathroom like that before. Itdoesn't make you wonder how it even happened.
Yes, yes, they in thecorner of the top of the room.
That doesn't even make sense. Whatangle are you trying to use right
now so you don't touch the toiletexactly? I mean, how do these
people actually live in their own homepublic places like this? It's weird.

(09:39):
Wow, thank you so much.We appreciate you sharing, Tiffany. I'll
have to drop in the big lotsand say hi. Sometime. I thought
you're gonna say. I have todrop into big lots and check out the
crime scene and pop into the bathroom. I'll take you on a tour.
Yeah, fixed stupid, proven itwith mood Kim and Otis on ninety four

(10:03):
point. Something about the holidays reallyramps up the stupidity. I think it's
just everyone's tensions are running high.So look, if you're traveling in the
next few days, just try notto end up on this list. Right
here, it's can't fix stupid Otis. Who do we got in the attempt
and failed to rob a bank witha pringles? Can you should probably,
just like I say, reconsider yourcareer options. Flavor It does not say

(10:26):
in the police reports, I've gotto be sour cream on you. Yeah,
but an unidentified man he entered thebank demanding money and the cash drawer
was locked. The employee could notget into the drawer. The guy got
impatient. Was you gotta heard this? He didn't even wear the skies.
He's just got like ray bands onand a black like beanie planned well in
an arrow pistal shirt. So realthe real crime here? Wait, they're

(10:48):
still around? Yeah, we postle. He didn't get any money, ended
up getting so just upset with thecashier that he just left and police say,
uh, he reported to be holdinga Pringles clant can dressed in a
blue arrowpostel shirt, red and whitewriting on his blue g like was did
he have it under his shirt?Like you know, because you can't.

(11:09):
You can't like it hold the Prinklescan Like I'm gonna bledge in you with
this. But then also you yourholding it under your shirt. It doesn't
look like a gun like that.The barrel of that thing would be like
a tennis ball size, like whatyeah, exactly surface to air missile under
your shirt And the surveillance video isjust holding it in his hand, so
I have no idea what his thought. Pro was hungry trying to put a

(11:35):
string out of the top of itlike a cartoon stick of dynamite. Yeah,
it's disguised too, that says thatsays Pringles. Extra cheesy, sir,
Yeah, extra yea extra trouble foryou. You can't fix stupid.
And even if you'd fail at robbinga bank, you're still going to jail.
I mean, you have better oddsjust doing finger guns, just regular

(11:56):
you really do pretty much, Andlike, yeah, you don't want this
finger right in your face is whatyou don't? Are your eye right right
that's can't fix stupidry ball. Next, are you dropping a big secret or
have you done so during a holidaybehind everybody's back? And my parents don't
know this? Em and his wifethat may be the Hints have a huge

(12:16):
secret to drop on the whole familythat they don't know. But if you've
got one or have you done that? Four oh four seven four one ninety
four nine, we'll find out theirstory. Six fifty five. Thanks for

It's ninety four point nine the ball, ninety four point nine in the
ball we are commercial for here onMoot, Kimmy and Otis, thanks for

(12:37):
being here with us. I'm BrianMoot. Ask the show question for you.
Have you ever dropped an absolute bombof a secret or someone else done
it at holiday? Four oh fourseven four one ninety four nine, Michael
and Conyer's my name's Otis. You'vegot a secret you're about to tell the
whole family that may cause a stirNo one knows. I'm gone home for
the holiday and my fiance is actuallymy fiance. We went and got married,

(13:01):
and my parents don't know this.We did it for health insurance reasons
because she was running out of healthinsurance. Been there, it makes sense,
m hm, taxes, all thateconomic decision, right, But they're
gonna be grilling me about when's thedate, the venue, and we're getting
pushed ideas and stuff like that.So I'm like, do we just play
along? And because we want tohave like some kind of wedding or something,

(13:22):
you know, but do we justplay it out. I had friends
in this exact same scenario and Ialready married them. I was their pastor.
Nobody in the families either side knewthat, and I had to keep
my drunken mouth shut like the entirewedding and not spoil it. Oh they're
already married. I mean, Iwill say this though. The danger you
run into is my wife and Idid the same thing. It was COVID.

(13:43):
We got married at a courthouse.We'd always planned on going back.
We told my parents and her parentsafter the fact they knew we were engaged.
But then it's like, now wehave a child, we always plan
on doing some big thing. Youshould never I know, we should,
but it's like more organizing, isit. Pay. The thing that might
out you if you don't tell themis that you guys don't feel the pressure
to set a date ever, right, I don't know. I kind of

(14:07):
feel like you should just blow itall up, say it over turkey.
I think you just say it overturkey. How long ago did you guys
do this? It was like sevenand a half months. Again, you
kind of miss that window to belike, oh bt dugs back in June.
I don't think you say when youdid it. Yeah, it just
when happens. When's your anniversary date? We'll get to that at a later
date. Don't worry about it.I'll tell you this. If you do

(14:30):
drop it on, I'm like,hey, we are already married, but
we're gonna have a ceremony. You'llhave a lot less guests, so it'll
be cheapertless, you know what Imean. Yeah, the gifts never outweigh
the cost, unless that gift isa check for thirty five thousand dollars.
Never have to drop a little secreton the whole family during a holiday four
four seven nine ninety four point nineThe bullets moot cammi otis we are commercial

(14:52):

On Ask the Show This Morning,have you ever been heart of telling a
secret or seeing someone tell a bigsecret that just made chaos good or bad

Dean in Pea Street City. Hey, I'm otis So it was a twenty
three and me genetics test that costa huge fight on a previous Thanksgiving.

(15:16):
A couple of my siblings did thetwenty three in May and found out that
somebody had a genetic secret. Somebody'snot related. Is one of our grandparents
or something. Anyway, my brothertold me before we decided let's bury this.
We're not going to tell anybody.We're going into Thanksgiving. It's also
funny too when you do the twentythree and me. My brother Patrick did
it, and now no one elsein my family wants to do it because

(15:37):
he's the brother who doesn't look likethe other two. So you know what
I mean, Like, you can'ttake that back like you did it because
he you know, he had coloncancer and you wanted to see, like
genetically if there was any other precursorsand things like that. But because he
doesn't look anything like me, youcan grow a beard. He's four inch
shorter. We've always had the milkmanjoke. I wanted to remain a joke.

(15:58):
It's true. If you do itand you find out the answer and
you tell anybody, it's gonna comeout later. True. Yeah. And
also how do you keep that secretto yourself? Like you have to tell
somebody, right, it's a burden. You gotta be like, hey,
I got them, pass this along. Yeah, and rest in peace.
It's gonna turn it into a JerrySpringer episode. And okidding, if you
throw it down at the table,that's what happened. That's what happened at
Everything Living. It was a coupleof drinks. My mom is crying.

(16:22):
Everybody's freaking out. One of thecousins isn't related. Our grandparents were gonna
take it to their graves and nowlike twenty three and me ruined it.

to buy you back. Thank youfor spending your Tuesday morning with us.
Here on Mood, Kimmy and Otiswe are commercial free. I'm Brian Mood.
This story for your good vibes thismorning. One that hits close to

(18:36):
my heart as a former special educationteacher working with kids who have special needs
and how they interact in public.In public, but in certain situations can
be unique and different. Seventeen yearold Elijah, part of Marietta's Scout Troop
two thousand, just got his EagleScout Certifications badge. And what his project
was and what I love about itis it something very specific to a need

(19:00):
that he saw and it's called theMia Keeps Calm Kids. It's named after
his sister who's fourteen, who hasautism, and the whole point is to
help Cobb County Police officers when they'rein high stressed situations. They show up
to a call and maybe one ofthe children involved has special needs, is
very overwhelmed and stressed out. Thesekids have things in him that he identifies

(19:22):
that help kids kind of like remaincalm, like fidget spinners, yeah,
other things. But and there's stuffthat officers can just keep in their trunk.
And when this situation arises and thesekids are super overwhelmed while adults are
dealing with adult things that these kidsdon't have to have really traumatic experience,
Yeah, de escalate the situation forthem. They see and experience the world
in different ways. My niece Otis, My niece has autism, and I've

(19:47):
done all the walks and they supportedthe causes for a long time. This
is amazing because you know, whoknows if she's ends up in a situation
where she needs help and the officerdoesn't know how to interact with it,
that's amazing, And that's the really, really special. The thing about it
is that he thought of an idea, He saw a need. He knows
his sister, and he just thoughtto himself seeing some interactions met, whether

(20:07):
it's on TV or just talking topolice officers and knowing that sometimes those kids
just need, they need to haveresources to help them. Just kind of
take a deep breath, relax,not be feared, not be overwhelmed.
I think anything we can do tohelp police officers have more positive interactions with
kids, especially who are growing upsometimes in very high stress environments, in
areas where adults are getting in troubleand kids don't know how to process it.

(20:30):
So way to go seeing a realworld need that you identified and helping
fix that. It's always there's somegood vibes.
