Let's hope because last winter wasn't that bad. We're talking
about this off the year. The last winter wasn't that bad. Boy,
we're getting smoked cold.

Speaker 5 (00:29):
We just didn't get any like sticking snow for reckoning.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Yeah, winter.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
The reckoning this though, specifically, is the morning mush bit.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Hi there, my name is Maria Palmer.

Speaker 6 (00:41):
I'm Maris. Happy hump Day. I'm drinking coffee out of
a wine glass. I'm Michael.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
I'm working on six hours of sleep on the past
two days.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
That's not kalua no no. I put a lot of
the result that is, child, don't get me started.

Speaker 6 (00:53):
Off right, Thanks for not drinking this earlier.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Appreciate you seemed like a nest quick kind of go
damn right.

Speaker 6 (00:58):
Oh I like that rabbit, Oh god, I like characters
from brands.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, but you like a very specific kind of character,
anyone that is slinky in nature but has a floppy
element to them. You really like You like a rabbit,
You like a jar jar banks.

Speaker 6 (01:20):
Yeah. I never even thought about it, but you're right.

Speaker 5 (01:22):
Yeah, yeah, deep on that floppy element.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
And I have a tendency to point out hyper specific
details of people.

Speaker 5 (01:33):
This is the morning, a beautiful days. Let's get to
your weather after this.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
I'm in man, I'll get you all caught up. It's
gonna be a weird day. So if you got to
drive this afternoon.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Stay off. It is going to be a weird day.
I'm glad the outside is now checking the inside.

Speaker 6 (01:47):
You're sleepy.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
I'm so sleepy.

Speaker 6 (01:49):
Did you just have a hard time sleeping? Sorry? I
took that dirty small sun. Michael's obsession with clouds not
be overstated. It went up to the cloud and you
can't get it down. Nobody understands the cloud. It's a mystery.
Here's weather. Don't understand the cloud. Yeah, yeah, there's gonna

(02:10):
be a lot of them today.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
Unfortunately, what do you understand about clouds?

Speaker 6 (02:14):
Understand that they're gonna drip drip drip. Uh and rainy.
We had a little rain.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
It didn't freeze like I was supposed to last night,
so we kind of lucked out. I think that, you know,
it's just wet, got rid of some snow, melting off
some snow.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
It helps like the rest of my little bit of shoveling.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
You know, when you try to shovel and then you
have the freezies and all the other stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
It got rid of that nice.

Speaker 6 (02:33):
Yeah, so you shoveling, My god, you know what I.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Do more though, honestly, that I think is more effective
and is less work.

Speaker 5 (02:39):
I sweep, sweep the snow if you if you get
it while it's soft, that's the easiest way to do
because then you're not like forcing and lifting and forcing
your back.

Speaker 6 (02:48):
If you get a leaf blower, whoa.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
I saw a video of a guy in the suburbs
and he was like he went and like cleared the
block with a leaf blower in like.

Speaker 6 (02:59):
And his neighbors were like, thank you.

Speaker 5 (03:00):
As long as you have extra batteries to get that done,
it's awesome.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
Oh do they make like little ones for small checks
A little bit?

Speaker 5 (03:10):
When I got I've seen it it was like on
super sale, Like it was out of date or something.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
So, hey, Dad, I know you're listening right now. Santa's around.
What's up?

Speaker 3 (03:26):
So yeah, So it's a little rainy now, it's as
warm as it's going to be today right now, and
the temperature is just going to drop down to twenty
three degrees throughout the day and as we go, starting
at eight am, we're going to start seeing more mixed
snow and rain, and then it's just gonna as it
gets colder, it's going to turn into snow and it's
gonna be snow in this afternoon. So your drive home
is going to be could be rough, let's put it

(03:46):
that way.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Love that case, you'd need someone to say it, just
to say it to you. Take care of your mental
health right now, and don't be ashamed of that because,
like I noticed yesterday, well I'm not sleeping and that's
a big one, but my house is getting more cluttered,
I'm not eating as much so and a lot of
that is because weather like this is keeping me inside

(04:10):
and like kind of forcing my body into a version
of like physical depression that then exacerbates a mental one.

Speaker 6 (04:15):
Are you under the covers, I'm under the cover, I'm
under the covers a lot. I put.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
I put a heater like a little plug in. Yeah,
little heating pad in the bed. I'm never getting out.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah, you're like a lizard on a rock. I get it.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Anyway, take care of yourself and like that's a totally
fine and in fact a responsible thing to do.

Speaker 6 (04:32):
Yeah, thank yeah, thank you.

Speaker 5 (04:34):
Yeah, we're going to go over the top ten most
popular touring artists of the millennium. Then I think we're

Speaker 6 (05:42):
Is this international or just domestic? The next one's great?

Speaker 3 (05:46):
This is internet international. Okay, the next one's great. A
new artist landing on the list, Bonavustovius. Wow, thirteen point
nine million.

Speaker 7 (05:57):
They have been busiest.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
That's a lot of progress to make in such a
short amount of time.

Speaker 6 (06:02):
Jow Bonjovin. I didn't know Bonjovi had it like that,
if I'm being honest.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
I mean sometimes these new bands they come out of nowhere,
but they have so much talent that like it's easy
for people to get behind.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
They have a really good team.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
Yeah, number eight, As we said, Metallica with fifteen point
six million. Number seven mister Kenny Chesney with yeahteen point two,
My boy, Kenny, what's a feet on the Water song?

Speaker 6 (06:26):
Or no, that's that.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Brown band you're thinking? No shoes, no shirts.

Speaker 6 (06:31):
So you're saying the songs all sound the same.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
I don't know, no, but there's definitely a brand of
beach vibe country.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
I did go to one of his shows because I
was doing a little country radio for like years and
years ago. It's stadium packed top to bottom. He's out
there with no shoes on. He's like four feet tall.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
No shoes, no shirt.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
No problems, nor do I because that six pack is
beautiful to look at and keep the hat on.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
We know that there's nothing.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
Number six on the list Bruce Springsteen and the E
Street Band selling eighteen point six million tickets.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
I would love to go see them, actually, because I
think that that E Street Band is just I mean,
was obviously too, but the EA Street Band, to me
is what makes them incredible.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Is all that music behind that orchestra orchestral sound.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
Number five a favorite of the young people in America
and around the world. Taylor Swiftington at eighteen point nine
million tickets.

Speaker 6 (07:25):
You know, Okay, that's what you're counting there.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Say what you want. She puts on a show.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
Yeah, I'll give her credit for what was the tour
showed like snakes coming up out of the ground.

Speaker 6 (07:34):
Yeah, sane.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
I'm not paying that much for a ticket, but I
got respect for putting on a big show like that.

Speaker 6 (07:39):
Yeah. And what she's done.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yeah, a little girl from Nashville, like little guitar back
in the day and she's one of the biggest stars
in the world is incredible. Number four Dave Matthews Band,
nineteen point five million. What you don't like Matthews, Well, just.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Dave Matthews after Taylor Dave.

Speaker 5 (07:58):
Dave Dave's doing is without releasing new music, just goes
on tour every year.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
Very pearl jam of him, but they're released. There is
a cult exactly.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
That's well, they don't have to worry about like septic
fees or anything like that. Dropping that pooh, Yeah, they
just just dump that off a bridge.

Speaker 6 (08:17):
All right.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
Top three Number three Ed sheeron nineteen point six million tickets.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
He very much interests me. I haven't done a deep
dive on Ed Sharon.

Speaker 6 (08:27):
I don't. I don't get it. Yeah. I enjoy his music,
but that seems high.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah, that's what I don't understand. I do think he's
very talented, but it's not like he's on stage with
a bunch of dancers putting on this insane is production. Yeah,
and his band, and he's got like attorney stage every
now and then that he like just kind of skips
around on.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
And the top two two bands. I can't stand Number
two you too, twenty point two million.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Yeah, but again they put on a show and who
it's for. It's really really for you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (08:54):
Yeah, yeah, no, totally. It's very much like Dave Matthew's
Pearl Jam. There's this built in audience that no matter
where they go or what they do.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
Yeah, kind of like atmospheric.

Speaker 6 (09:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Yeah. And number one Okay, cold Play. I was gonna say,
any joke, Okay, cold Play? I remember, was it super bad?
There's a funny joke in there your game?

Speaker 5 (09:14):
Cold Play being at the top of this list is
the most justified thing that I've heard.

Speaker 6 (09:18):
I have never seen them.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
Tickets to see them once, I skipped the show because
they were just free tickets.

Speaker 5 (09:23):
I wish I would have went. I hear around all
of that. I'm intrigued to nowhere Beyonce sits on this list.

Speaker 6 (09:30):
She yeah, she is there. She's just right below that.
That blows my mind that she wasn't in the top ten.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
Thirteen she's right behind the Rolling Stones and right in
front of Madonna. Madonna is still this is an upset you.
Pink landed on the list higher than Beyonce.

Speaker 6 (09:47):
Pink.

Speaker 5 (09:47):
I get, really, I get because she tours regularly without
releasing new music.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
All right, well, and here's the thing, cold Play, you
get your gossip into.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Wow, I don't know, number nine of all the bands
in the world, Iron Maiden, Oh, that's pretty good. Eighteen Fish,
seventeen Eagles, sixteen GNR, Madonna, Beyonce, Stones, Pink and then we're.

Speaker 6 (10:11):
Into the top ten Fish. Who'd you see this year?

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Right?

Speaker 6 (10:14):
Four four fifty? What was the best show you see?

Speaker 3 (10:20):
We'll hear that voice again soon on Sound Garden finishes
up that new album that they're doing with old Chris
Cornell tracks, which is pretty cool. Rock ninety five five,
Chicago's rock station in the morning match Pit is on
and it's time for a war.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yes, yes, it is an inevitable one, an inevitable Here
my advissras wall news.

Speaker 6 (10:38):
From the front of the inevitable human robot war.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
Hyundai is recalling some of their g ninety generous Genesis
for another Luxurious Sedans, but only the ones painted in
a very specific shade of silver because the car's radar
system is getting infused by its own paint job.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
The no way because it's reflecting. Yeah, it's the automatic.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
I don't know if I am saying this right. Savile silver,
Saville silver. There's a silver color. It contains aluminum flakes
that reflect radar signals and that makes the car think
that another vehicle is in the next lane, and this.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Is causing the brakes to slam on without warning when
drivers try to change lanes at low speeds.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
That's awesome, amazing. It's a pretty good look at car.
Actually it's like a big four door like Sedam, but
it's a gorgeous car for a Hyundai.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Yeah, and they said it's basically the car equivalent of
an animal freaking out at its own reflection.

Speaker 6 (11:43):
If you see that bear video where he sees the
mirror and you just like beat the crap out.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Of the mirror.

Speaker 6 (11:47):
I watch you.

Speaker 5 (11:49):
To the engineer that came up with that color and
was like, Ah, this is going to be great in
this car.

Speaker 6 (11:54):
You know what's weird is it's it's a silver, but
it doesn't look like it almost looks charcoally like it's
a darker silver, which is gonna wink.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
I'm gonna be such a nerd about this. This is
endlessly fascinating to me, the intersection of art and science
and like math and stuff, because like there's that there
is that art aspect where you want your functional vehicle
to look as cool as physically possible and still function A.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
Very very important point.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
But really this is how they get you, because then
the robots become so common.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
You have to set your robot apart by having.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
Its own unique little personality and its own special little
pink color that makes it too stupid things like slam
your brakes on we're trying to drive. Then you've just
sacrificed safety for aesthetic. And that's how they're with.

Speaker 8 (12:46):
This one's news from the front of the Inevitable Human
Robot War.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
New bands bon Jovi, I'm Rock ninety five to five.
They are, in fact halfway there. They clearly have the talent.
You can hear that on Chicago's rock station, and they're
already on your airwaves.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
I assume if they just keep at it.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
You know, try to get some longevity behind you, you'll
be something one day.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
That's how you start building a brand damn straight.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
A large scale study published in the Journal of Psychological
Science gives us the top ten life decisions people stress
over most. Oh God, you want to shoot from the
hip and give me one that you stress over paying bills?

Speaker 4 (13:24):
Okay, Well, life decisions, there's so many. Marriage that's a
one of them, for sure. That is a hold on
marriage is at number eight on the list. Whether to
get married kids number ten, Whether to move to another
country number nine, Whether to get vaccinated number eight, Whether
to get married number seven. Whether to have surgery if

(13:47):
you need, like an elective surgery of some sorts, Like, no,
you could get that fixed, or you.

Speaker 6 (13:51):
Could live with it.

Speaker 9 (13:52):
Yeah, Whether to buy a house. Yeah, I'm not stressed
about that because I can't do it. Yeah unless I
go to like a small town and get a little house.
I mean, it's boss.

Speaker 6 (14:04):
And now I'm thinking differently.

Speaker 5 (14:06):
But at the same time, why because I'm interested in this.
It's just the level of responsibility. Yeah, Like you're always
dealing with the roof something turned to someone else and
say take care of this.

Speaker 6 (14:16):
I have to take care of it, right, Yeah, I
do like that.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
That's why I'm not doing it too.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
Yeah, I mean like also, I don't have my hellolo well,
but like even if I someday do fingers crossed.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
I don't know that I'm going to.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
I I will buy when I know where I want
to land.

Speaker 1 (14:36):
But otherwise why would I do that too?

Speaker 3 (14:40):
I was gonna say eventually, Murray, I expect that you'll
have a couple of like rental homes or something that
that you know, you pay a company to take care
of and all that, and that just makes money.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
I hope I am never that much of the.

Speaker 6 (14:49):
Man you're already.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
Let's to hear nobody to do. Number five whether to
be self employed or start your own business. Number four cars,
whether you want to drive when you're tired, buzzed, car problems,
bad weather, tires showing flatness.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
There is a whole lifestyle around cars.

Speaker 6 (15:11):
Yeah, yes there is.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Number three Whether to invest money and how yep? Yeah
that sucks?

Speaker 6 (15:18):
Yes all right?

Speaker 3 (15:19):
Number two where to quit your job without or without
another gig? And number one whether to accept a new
job or not. Oh, these jobs will change your life,
especially if you got to move.

Speaker 5 (15:30):
I did quit my last job without having anything, and
it was a great summer until I ran out of money.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Yeah, exactly my last job quit me and then called
me back like a desperate X. So we have a
disorganized attached relationship.

Speaker 6 (15:43):
Eight fifty What do you stress? What's your number one stressor?
Got a couple others in the list here? Top twenty
five children, education, and then insurance, which is weird.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
I'm stressing right now about who's going to be are
either or that's right?

Speaker 1 (16:00):
You d d Yeah, Sonny, you'd have to wrap me up.
I was agagnized.

Speaker 5 (16:04):

Speaker 1 (16:32):
Okay, I want them to do a sequel to cars.

My, whoa, that's so dark that oh.

Speaker 6 (16:43):
My god, wish rock ninety five to five. Are we
speaking with Bob? Good morning?

Speaker 5 (16:56):
Oh great to hear from you as always, Bob, and
thanks for joining us for Dungeons and Dragons this morning.
You were going to be playing the role of either
Or as we tried to find all.

Speaker 6 (17:07):
The ingredients for the perfect hot dog. Maria.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Yeah, recap okay, So on our quest to assemble the
perfect Chicago hot talk from the finest ingredients in Chicago Land.
We're back at the stupid Whole Foods that we were
trapped in for like a month before. Oh we destroyed,
and then my two favorite imbeciles over here decided to
send us back, so.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
That is awesome for me.

Speaker 6 (17:32):
You're welcome.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
So last time, Marius searched around the back room and
found celery salt on a top shelf about twelve feet
up with the counter beneath it that he could theoretically
climb up, So he's an eye in that celer resalt
right now. Either Or called out to get Masonovich the
hell off of his foot that he was stepping on,
pressing him into glass. Masonovich stopped injuring his companion and

(17:57):
called out to see if Marius had made it inside
the Whole Foods, and good notes he did. He's in
the back room buying the cellar result ten steps ahead
of Masonovich on brand And this is where the gag
finds themselves today.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Either or of Bob.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
As you have recently been freed from Masonovich's foot stepping
down on glass, you decide to limp your way towards
Marius's voice.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
So you're attempting to weave through all.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
The debris in the aisle and all the sour dose
starter and the brine and the glass.

Speaker 6 (18:35):
Now, how do.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
You want to try to navigate that wreckage? Do you
want to try to find a map? Do you want
to try to follow the signs that are probably pointing
a whole bunch of different directions because this place is
reminder absolutely annihilated and wrecked.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
So what would you like to do? Either or of Bob?

Speaker 2 (18:59):
I think I'll go with directions this morning, like looking
up and trying to find the signs.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
All right, let's see how he does with that?

Speaker 6 (19:05):
All right, here we go.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah, unbelievable, Hey Bob, No, Bob, what do you think
that he got?

Speaker 1 (19:19):
Cool?

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Of course, Bob, it's a one, Bob, he got a
one one for you.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Bob, I've.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Truly you can't Well, maybe Blackjack is here way to go.

Speaker 1 (19:33):
Okay, so either.

Speaker 2 (19:35):
Or tries to follow the signs to head towards Marius.
He can tell the Barrius' voices coming from the back
is trying to find his way to the back. Unfortunately,
guess what, everything's amazed because all the aisles have been
scooted around to where he could go down one. He's
now running into dead ends. He's looking up at signs.
They're not even pointing to aisles that exist anymore.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Nothing makes sense. He's entirely lost.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
And now you are lost in the maze of whole foods,
either Or of bobry About that, Marius, your eye in
that cellery salt in the back room. You're completely oblivious
to Masonovich and either Or's trials and tribulations out in
the front of house.

Speaker 6 (20:12):
Damn it, I'm climbing. You're climbing, climbing, climbing.

Speaker 8 (20:20):
Uh success, Well yeah, Marius goes over to the shelves.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
He reaches for the celery salt and grabs. It turns
out that shells were.

Speaker 2 (20:39):

and he just completely overestimated it, and it's perfectly within reach.
He now has a cellary salt and he's put it
in his pocket. I'll win for Marius Massonovich. Yeah, yeah,

to reunite with Marius who was in the back. Which
one would you like to focus on and how would

Hey, hey, look look, Pope Leo got in. Some things

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Do you see anything terrible happening in the world? That's
because Chicago sports are doing well. God's focused up right,
that's right.

Speaker 6 (23:34):
Last weekend I went three last weekend. We're really on
that one.

Speaker 3 (23:39):
Oh let's see here, he's got to find himself. Bears,
of course taking the Browns this weekend. It's Soldier Field,
and the forecast for this game is looking, I say, scary,
negative twenty, negative twenty on the windshills.

Speaker 6 (23:54):
Sitting out there in the stands, windchill. Okay, Well, your.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Weather reports sounding the same right now, and then it's
because you're reporting on the sports weather that makes a
lot more sense.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
Yeah, they start at game time, it will be it
could have windshills of negative twenty.

Speaker 6 (24:08):
That's what they're expecting. Okay, damn.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
Can you imagine like living in a place like oh,
I don't know, Florida, Southern California, eat Texas, where you're
used to sunshine.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
You go into sports, you can't wait.

Speaker 2 (24:21):
To live the life, startle, you want to bang models,
you want to go.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
At all these cool events.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
Then you get drafted by the Bears or the Packer. Yeah,
and you have to live in the freezing cold.

Speaker 6 (24:34):
I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 5 (24:35):
I've been to some of these games that have been
ten or whatever once. If you get lucky and the
sun comes out, it's not bad. I have layered up
to high hell, so I'm in a good situation. I'm
talking about three socks, plastic jewel bags inside the socks
to help you insulate your feet, because your feet will
go first.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Yes, Maria, three socks or three layers of socks import distinction.

Speaker 5 (25:01):
Three socks on each foot, sock episod.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
Where's that third sock going? We're protecting and fair.

Speaker 6 (25:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (25:10):
You just if you're gonna go, drink your beer quick
because it probably will freeze. Crazy to talk about, but yeah,
you just get a little liquored up, have some fun.

Speaker 6 (25:19):
It's gonna be a great running game. Also, I do
have good news. It's gonna be sunny all day. Actually
that helps.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
So the temperature high of twelve degrees. Yeah, it's gonna
feel way colder, but sunshine all day.

Speaker 6 (25:30):
Yeah. Why what do you mean?

Speaker 7 (25:32):
Why?

Speaker 1 (25:32):
Why is it that worth it to go to the
game to sit out in that?

Speaker 6 (25:36):
Absolutely?

Speaker 3 (25:37):
I actually would like to go to the game because
I want to see Sugar Sanders play too.

Speaker 5 (25:40):
I know it sounds crazy, It is one of my
favorite things to do for whatever reason, the Lions and
Bears have landed at the end of the season at
Soldier and it's just a great time.

Speaker 6 (25:52):
It's a tradition and oh my god, what you could
go to this game really cheap this week? Guy, Yeah,
there's a ticket right now for one hundred and twenty
seven dollars.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
Where yeh see, I'm not paying one hundred and twenty
seven bucks to sit in nose pleads.

Speaker 3 (26:08):
The front of the three hundred level. It's like the
front row of a three hundred level. I bet it's
the cold that's dropping these tickets.

Speaker 8 (26:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (26:13):
But also if you're planning on going, well, you're going
to get to watch a Bear's wing.

Speaker 6 (26:18):
Yeah, exactly, I might go to this it's that cheap.
I mean even if you went for an hour, little
little cheat code.

Speaker 5 (26:26):
With the wind coming off the lake, be very strategic
about where you want to buy your tickets, because if
you're sitting on the west side of the stadium, you're
going to catch that wind. Okay, if you sit on
the east side and you're going to get blocked as
long as it's blowing off the lake, So.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Okay, West west side tickets one hundred and forty four
east Side. Hold please, cheapest ticket is three hundred and
sixty seven.

Speaker 6 (26:49):
There, it is there, it is you can.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
I would also buy my ticket strategically for that game,
and I would buy them strategically placed inside a bar with.

Speaker 6 (27:01):
It's different. I'll stay in bed.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
One of my favorite stories from twenty twenty five was
Vince Neil hitting on an AI model on the internet.

Speaker 6 (27:16):
It's so difficult to tell she's not real.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
She posted a picture that said leave a comment to
see my nudies, and he just commented yes.

Speaker 6 (27:25):
Chicago's rock station, The Morning March Fit is on.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
How would you know how real women speak if you
don't ever listen to that's true?

Speaker 6 (27:32):
You know, well, he knows about girls ai girls, girls.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
Girls, And you know what that a man has a
healthy relationship with women when he calls a song as
a grown adult girls girls girls.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
I know I like to be referred to as a
girl anyway.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Yeah, speaking of dudes making interesting decisions, although this one
I have quite a bit of empathy for dudes aren't
going out as much because they prefer to stay in
and play a video games online instead of going out
at bars with their buddies.

Speaker 6 (28:04):
It's expensive drinks are too expensive. One, that's one thing.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
That's one of them. But let's not pretend that men
aren't spending a bunch of money on.

Speaker 6 (28:18):
For eight hours.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
I heard they spend a lot of money on video
game things.

Speaker 5 (28:29):
Within this study, if guys aren't going out, are they
at least inviting their boys over to play with them
or is this all focused on I have my consol
at home meet up with me in the chat room.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
The latter it is it is that they're not meeting
up in real life at all. They're like getting on
the headset together.

Speaker 5 (28:48):
So I've done a few guide trips this year, and
the one thing that we did was we played every
game I had on the switch, like the games that
we've never touched, some games that we've played before.

Speaker 6 (29:03):
And like, so you went on a trip and played
video games.

Speaker 5 (29:06):
Yeah, we just left town and went and played video games.
And the one thing that we all said at brunch
when we were leaving was like, I haven't done that
since I was a kid.

Speaker 6 (29:15):
That's cool. So, like, those were some of the best
time overnights.

Speaker 5 (29:19):
The ease of gaming at home, amazing, talking trash online,
fantastic talking trash in person.

Speaker 6 (29:27):
Or they can hit something so different.

Speaker 5 (29:28):
So like, if you're one of these guys, I challenge
you to just get to get the guys over and
have a land party in the house. Land because when
you can yell across the room and see how visibly
upset somebody is and you just keep jabbing at it,
it's fun. Stop looking yes the screen, watching like it's
just being in that same environment. I know how easy

(29:50):
it is to just game at home, but get out
and get the guys.

Speaker 1 (29:53):
I think, yeah, this is also revealing an issue.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Clearly we haven't really mastered the art of the video
game slash arcade bar because what we are hearing is
there's a hunger for this. Like you guys want to
meet up in real life, don't necessarily want to go
out to a bar.

Speaker 5 (30:09):
There they are there. I know there's one place are
there you can just come in and you can do
a land party there. They've got it all set up.
I'm sorry, I don't remember the name right now. I'll
share it later on my socials. But it's like I'm.

Speaker 6 (30:22):
Thinking of like emporium. It's I think, being a grown
person and being like, hey, can I.

Speaker 5 (30:27):
Jump in on this arcade cabinet with you is a
little weird, especially since we're all shouldered up and taking
up the entire machine.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
Yeah, that's true. And that's what my question is is
what part of it are we getting wrong? Because we
are getting something wrong.

Speaker 5 (30:40):
So for me when I go, when I have gone
to the arcades, I try to be as open as possible. Yea,
if like if we got if we're on a four
person cabinet and there's two left, I'll try to shimmy.
Or if I see somebody like peeking, I'm like, hey,
jump in, just like hey, come on in. And then
and then it's just fun.

Speaker 8 (31:00):
You know.

Speaker 6 (31:01):
It really just depends on the circumstances and the people.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
I also feel like specifically, what you're doing is you're
mixing kind of a nerdy group of human beings that
might not be the most socially adept.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
And then when you try to put that in a
bar where you have the.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
Pressure of like there's going to be girls here or
you know, whatever you're into, and that is the kind
of location where you have the pressure to go try
to do something about it. If you can remove that
sort of like social pressure, I feel that maybe you
would have more success.

Speaker 6 (31:32):
That's kind of where I was going.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
I was watching a psychologist just earlier this week, and
he was talking about the fact that men are not
drinking as much is actually bad for them. Yeah, because
awkward young dudes need something to help them. And so
what's happening is everybody's staying at home. They're staying awkward.

Speaker 6 (31:47):
Yeah, I mean, have you met some of these And
I don't mean disrespectfully, but some of these young people
these days, like they can't hold a conversation.

Speaker 5 (31:53):
It's the pandemic sets back. Yeah, you're right, socially, socially.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
And again because we're not getting out because I don't like,
I know that we're focused on men and a lot
of these studies are about men.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
But I don't think it's just men. I think it
is women too.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
We're better at talking to each other anyways, we're kind
of used to that. But think about what it's like
even with us three, we're in the room with each
other every single day. We have jokes that no one
would laugh at if you weren't listening to the show.
Every single day we can look at each other in
a total voice somehow and make each other crack up.

(32:26):
But like that, in and of itself is almost isolating
because you're only hanging around the same people.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
That becomes an echo chamber at some point.

Speaker 3 (32:33):
Moral of the story, go get wasted and have some
unprotected fun sets. No, let's get backing bad decisions.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
So make sure you're taking life advice from people whose
life you would like you mimic, and not from people
whose life you would like to avoid and maybe learn
from as a not to do.

Speaker 5 (32:53):
Hey, I get a big social giveaway coming up, tea
Box tickets in five things going all the Way on
Rock ninety five five.

Speaker 6 (33:02):
Five ish things you almost certainly need to know.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
Wow, five whole things. That's a lot of things, and
that's a lot of music to be happening a time.

Speaker 6 (33:13):
So just tell done. There we go, got Doctor Drever,
the greatest of all time. Baby, that's right. You want
to go to tea Boxes this weekend.

Speaker 5 (33:25):
Got a pair of tickets for you to enjoy over
twenty bars, all kicking off at the Gubby Bear.

Speaker 6 (33:31):
So twenty ninth annual We want you to go.

Speaker 5 (33:33):
Eight four, four, nine, five ninety five fifty sad news
from Oreo.

Speaker 6 (33:39):
Don't know they're adding a zero sugar cookie to the lineup.
Oh that's a failure. And I get it. Some people
can't handle the.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Sugar, Yes, like people with diabetes.

Speaker 6 (33:50):
I get it. You're missing out. Yeah, they know, they
don't want to. They're gonna have an original and a
double stuff do it.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Look at someone in a wheelchair and go like, man,
you're missing out on stairs dog.

Speaker 6 (34:04):
Wait, how do you do a no sugar double stuffed?
What are they do? They replacing a sweeter.

Speaker 5 (34:10):
Forwards listed on here that are the sugar substitutes. And
I'm not even gonna try to do that, But good
job Oreo helping out those that can enjoy regular sugar
like me. Someday a lucky lady found two thousand dollars
in a piggy bank, thought the piggybank was cute at

(34:30):
the thrift store, spent ten dollars to make two twenty
eight dollars.

Speaker 6 (34:36):
Someone put it on the shelf full. Now, now craye
is all.

Speaker 5 (34:42):
Cash folded up and bundled in a little bit, so
it was it was still light and it wasn't going
to be shakeable.

Speaker 6 (34:49):
Yes, ma'am, you know what this means.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
That basically puts the gambling odds at a thrift store
as the same at a gas station. So when I
go thrifting, I could theoretically be providing for my family
even I am by thrifting.

Speaker 6 (35:04):
You let me know how that goes. KFC has five
new menu items. I'm intrigued in all of these.

Speaker 5 (35:11):
They've got a chicken tarryockey ball, a classic chicken Caesar,
brussel Bites, Puffies, which is a dessert. It's a poppable
pastry that's gonna have raspberry sauce. And then the most
interesting of all, the late night Kitchen Sink Grandito. Okay,
this comes with KSE egg crinkle cut fries and chopped

(35:31):
chicken candies on a giant ortia.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
What I'm doing in KFC?

Speaker 3 (35:38):
Four Oh, put some gravy on Popeyes kfs? Okay, just
make sure I'm going for lunch.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Do you venture outside your normal orders at fast food
restaurants like that time?

Speaker 6 (35:51):
Do you really? Yeah? If they got something new, I'm
trying it. See, I don't life now.

Speaker 5 (35:59):
I'm not gonna say every thing is great, but some
of those things were really good.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
I have, like my KFC order, my Rby's order, m
like I have my order to go to Yeah.

Speaker 5 (36:07):
And finally, if you're in prison trying to get a
drone to drop off steaks, crab legs, weed and other smokes.
Drop it here, don't because they're gonna steal it from you.
And they absolutely ate that lunch and took the weed home.

Speaker 6 (36:23):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (36:24):
Fascinating enough, Old Bay was included in this as Oh.

Speaker 1 (36:29):
I thought like they were trying to deliver it to
the prisoners.

Speaker 6 (36:32):
No, they like the drone dropped it in the yard.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
I thought you meant like there was a drone trying
to drop things off and the prisoners intercepted it, and
I was like, I think that they should have it.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
Crab legs, no, bolt cutters, Huh, you will find a way.
If you got a crab leg in prison, you might
have to chew through that thing, but you will find
a way. And Nina, congratulations, you're going to tea box.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
You got a pair of dice, D and D.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
I rolled one twenty Yeah, I rolled one, one and
two twenties. Can I roll again and see if my streets? Yeah,
I don't do it right. I got thrown it across
the room, big nerf dice, you got fifteen.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
That's a higher world than you usually get.

Speaker 6 (37:19):
The really between four and seven.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
All right and take us away, Mikey Rock News.

Speaker 6 (37:22):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
Megadeth has announced their final album and farewell tour and
more news coming out on Why that is. Apparently, Dave Mustaine,
I feel this in my foot, has a nasty arthritis
in his hands.

Speaker 6 (37:36):
Can you imagine as a musician. Yeah, you really got
to have those hands working.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
Yeah, the band's upcoming album, which will be out next month,
will be there last officially, and they'll spend the next
few years touring around the world as a proper goodbye,
and then Mustaine says it is over, he is retiring. Yeah,
I hate arthritis. I went to the doctor right the
first time in my life has ever happened. I said,
I got a will hurt hurt foot situation to my foot.

(38:00):
He said, well, you got arthritis. I said I got what?

Speaker 1 (38:03):
Yeah, because I.

Speaker 6 (38:03):
Only ever heard about that with Nana and pop pop
who had arthritis in their hands.

Speaker 5 (38:08):
I think I had my knee surgery probably five years ago,
six years ago. Doctor was just like, Yeah, you're just
gonna have authritis.

Speaker 6 (38:15):
That's just going to be a thing you're going to
have to deal with.

Speaker 11 (38:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
Piano piano hands.

Speaker 3 (38:20):
Two Metallica fans are now finding themselves facing a lifetime
ban from Perth's Optimist Stadium due to a stunt they
pulled while trying to get a better look at the band.

Speaker 6 (38:29):
Not only did they sneak.

Speaker 3 (38:30):
Into the stadium, but then they were caught attempting to
scale one of the speaker towers during the show to
get up on it to watch the show. My thought
is like, how is everybody's going to see you climbing
the speaker stack. Security's going to drag you out of here.
But needless to say, they ended up in court over it,
and they are twenty years old, twenty three and no
longer allowed to perform, to go to that arena.

Speaker 6 (38:52):
Ever got in lay Low? Yeah, exactly like the dumbest
thing you could have done after you got inside. You guys,
ever sneak into any concerts? Negative? Michael? You know what
I did one time?

Speaker 1 (39:04):
I have seen it too a concotle.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
I had seat levels, seat tickets on the lower level
for Green Day, and I wanted to be on the
floor because like a fifteen foot drop, and I waited
till the lights went out and I just jumped it
and ran into the crowd.

Speaker 6 (39:17):
It's crazy it's actually it worked. Okay, they didn't come
after me.

Speaker 7 (39:20):
It was great.

Speaker 6 (39:21):
I had to duck down. I'm tall.

Speaker 3 (39:23):
Sleep Token the number one song on the New York
Times Best Songs of twenty twenty five list. The song
Caramel h me devil in, not offense, not impressed, no
man like. There's a lot of hype around this band.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
There's a mood for it.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Yeah, well, Sleep Token again, there's a mood for it.
It's not bad in any by any start of the imagination.

Speaker 6 (39:54):
But is this the hook? The hook? Yeah, I just
want to hear it. I haven't listened to a lot
of Sleep Token, if I'd.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
Mean honest, this just feels like an interesting combination of
voice and music.

Speaker 6 (40:06):
They call it a huge, gloriously silly and brutally effective
ow olm amalagam of abandoned styles right for revigorating rat metal, dream,
prague pop reggae.

Speaker 11 (40:18):
It's amalgam Amalcolm, what's that mean? A mashup, amalgamation, You
just a mashup. It is the morning mashpit and it's
a little gloomy out there today. Temperatures dropping, right, Michael.

Speaker 6 (40:37):
Yeah, it was. It's the hottest.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
It's going to be today right now, it's just continuing
downhill from here snow this afternoon, Maria, can you pick
us up a little.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
Bit, you know, I'll do my very very best. Unfortunately,
there are some forces working against us. They happen to
be the news websites. It turns out the headlines are
akin to rage bait. There used to be information out there.
I swear there was.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
Yeah, like it existed at some point in time. I'm
pretty sure. But now you might as well be reading
a tabloid. It is just ridiculous click bait, rage baiting.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
And so what we're gonna do is keep you informed,
but bring you up with the positive spin on the
news headlines.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
This is bad news.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Bears missing senior, sound dead and submerged car.

Speaker 6 (41:30):
That was a long pause.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
I wanted to give you a little hope.

Speaker 6 (41:36):
Wait, was that the girl upside animal cars?

Speaker 2 (41:37):
I was just said, yeah, barn fire injures woman kills animals.

Speaker 6 (41:45):
Oh, I hate that because they're stuck and they don't.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
Know how to It's like take the woman out the
animal barbecue.

Speaker 6 (41:54):
Well, I mean, let's not waste what not?

Speaker 8 (41:58):
Man?

Speaker 1 (41:58):
Please, it's guilty to killing dog breeder.

Speaker 3 (42:02):
Some dog breeders are scumbag. It's not that anybody who
deserves dive. Don't look at me like that. I'm gonna
continue saying that.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
And finally man says stabbing was about principle, probably dog breeding.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
Okay, all of this is just bad newspaper.

Speaker 5 (42:24):
We're going to talk about why Irish goodbyes are actually
healthy for you.

Speaker 6 (42:29):
Don't forget. You still have time to get your walkie talk.

Speaker 5 (42:33):
Back in with your opportunity to win Chicago and Sticks
tickets will be in town in twenty twenty six in
which we want you to take part in that over.

Speaker 6 (42:42):
Yeah, that's all. We need a message from you.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
On the iHeartRadio app. Just push the little microphone button
and it sends it right here into the studio.

Speaker 6 (42:48):
Bang bang.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
I love a good holiday party. When you're around like
minded individuals. You know what the room is going to
be like. That's fun.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
But you don't always get to go to those very
specific parties.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
And sometimes you have to go to the work ones
and the ones that aren't exactly work but they're not
exactly fun, but you're still expected to show up.

Speaker 6 (43:07):
Your wife's part.

Speaker 2 (43:10):
And those ones there's for me. There are three moments
there that I hate navigating. It's one when you first
arrive and you need to see if anyone that you
even know is there. Otherwise you're gonna have to like
find a spot playing yourself awkwardly and that.

Speaker 6 (43:24):
Maybe do I go say hi to everyone and the circle.

Speaker 2 (43:28):
Because then that would bring you to the next part
that I hate navigating is the small talk with the
people that you don't really know and you know that,
like what you you don't really have anything in common.
So the only thing that you can talk about a
small talk.

Speaker 3 (43:41):
That's what am I go to is the weather, But
we can't talk about whether I should shut up everything.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
We're going to help you with the third one that
sucks a lot, and that is the goodbyes. That's not hard, yes,
it is when you have to work all the way
around the room everyone that can take people off sometimes
whatever you do that in the wrong room, I'm just saying, I'm.

Speaker 6 (44:03):
Mad I didn't say goodbye.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
Sometimes so well, But there's a depending on the room
that you're walking into. If it's a family room, that like,
oh family.

Speaker 6 (44:11):
That's a no go. Family. You got to say good
bye absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
What do you mean you say, there's no Irish goodbye.
Ye yeah, exactly right.

Speaker 2 (44:19):
You don't always it's not always an option to do
an Irish goodbye.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
We're doing the company Christmas party here soon we will
be Irish good bye exactly.

Speaker 6 (44:27):
I'm out.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
That is always an Irish goodbye.

Speaker 6 (44:29):
With that one.

Speaker 5 (44:30):
Specifically, if you're in my route out of the building,
you're gonna get a handshake.

Speaker 6 (44:34):
Yeah, there you go. I like that, but I'm not hey, man,
see I'm taking off. Good to see you, good to
see a good see.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
I was going to say, you're not even getting a handshake,
you're getting an eye contact and like one of those
little finger solutions.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, yeah.

Speaker 6 (44:47):
I was like, oh, here's this check than joy Christmas.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
Here's the thing that's actually pretty much correct.

Speaker 2 (44:53):
Okay, so we have like a step by step here
of how to do an effective but quick goodbye so
that you don't have to do the around the room
kind of deal. First up is the departure statement, something
real quick, like all right, heading out, I'll do that.

Speaker 6 (45:08):
I'll look at a bunch of people. I'll be like, hey,
I'm taking off, see you.

Speaker 5 (45:10):
No covered, Yeah, that's a trap because somebody will start
a conversation with you. Hey, you know, I'm just and
then you're talking for twenty minutes.

Speaker 2 (45:19):
We'll have to do a full separate procedure for the Midwest. Goodbye, yeah,
because that's an all right heading mountain. Then two hours
later you've moved from the living room to the foury at.

Speaker 6 (45:31):
The pat on the top of your legs. All right, yeah,
get out of here.

Speaker 2 (45:36):
The second part is expressing gratitude to the host. So
you go step one, alright, it's about time. Step two
is great party.

Speaker 9 (45:45):
You do.

Speaker 2 (45:45):
Got to say thank you to the such fun thanks
for having me. And then your third step you throw
in a little one liner. You add some humor, something.

Speaker 1 (45:54):
Like I'm gonna head up for I hit the buffet
for round five. It's a killer. Like my grandfather always said,
if you yawn, you're gone.

Speaker 6 (46:06):
These are these are called traps.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
Oh, it's a killer.

Speaker 6 (46:10):
This This is nothing but a trap.

Speaker 5 (46:12):
That's too much engagement to wait your grandpa, tell me
about your grand Shut up, Sarah.

Speaker 1 (46:18):
Well saying goodbye.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
You some non verbal cues, smile, nod your head, maybe
put your hands up in a shrug show.

Speaker 6 (46:25):
There's nothing I can do.

Speaker 9 (46:26):
Just time to cow.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
It's not about you. I'm leaving a kid.

Speaker 6 (46:30):
I would blame stuff on kid all the time. I
got to go home kids. This list is leading to
failure for me, really think so yeah, I think the
best way is just disappear.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
It's just just yeah and well, And ultimately that's what
they summarize as they conclude, rather as well. They're like,
technically used to be considered rude to leave without saying goodbye,
But in this day and age where you can text
and follow up and be like, sorry, I had to
head out, it's really not yeah, like you can follow back.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
It's not the same thing as if they left.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
I won't know for hours whether or not they're even alive,
because it takes them an hour to get home.

Speaker 1 (47:06):
And that's true if they've already planned on calling me
to let me know they've.

Speaker 2 (47:09):
Made it, and a message on my answering machine right now,
we're all sharing location. Anyway, we look and we go, oh, yeah,
he left, he'll be back tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (47:19):
I think if it's a small party, you say goodbye
to people, But if it's a big Christmas party or something,
just go.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
Who cares if your money is dependent upon it, be polite. Otherwise, oh, yeah,
it's time to drk out.

Speaker 5 (47:44):
Hopefully you got to take part and trade anything day
over at that lovely store by the name.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
And anything secrets.

Speaker 6 (47:54):
That's funny.

Speaker 5 (47:56):
There was a long list of things that you couldn't
trade in, but secrets on eighty thousand people got around it.
They got their five dollars gift certificate to GameStop. Some
of the top items that were traded in of note taxidermy,
a bobcat, awesome stuffed goose, tiny Jesus, Oh speed limit sign,

(48:22):
bowling ball, and there was an extensive creepy dog collection
along with some air Jordan's and a literal can of
wool ass.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
You know, I appreciate GameStop self awareness as the pawnshop
of the video game world.

Speaker 6 (48:38):
I mean, they just threw a bunch of that away.
Smart marketing.

Speaker 5 (48:44):
Some of somebody tried to trade in a dog was
turned away, like you said, dog, a dog, A dog,
a dog, a wolf wolf. Somebody else tried to trade
in their social Security card. That doesn't sound smart at all,
I'll take it. But a majority of the people did
take time to.

Speaker 6 (49:04):
Actually donate something nice and.

Speaker 5 (49:06):
They brought in a food, uh non perishable food for
food banks and pet shelves.

Speaker 6 (49:13):
It was like a food so yeah, well done, nerds,
well done.

Speaker 2 (49:19):
Yeah, it's like really no stop, like this isn't good
or we literally, I literally was just talking about how
pumped I was.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
The rain washed away all the rest of the shoveling
that I had to do and gright.

Speaker 6 (49:32):
Now guess what we was lost on that progress? I apologize.
I have ADHD In case you didn't know, I.

Speaker 5 (49:39):
Noticed from both of you every minute every day from
six am to ten am.

Speaker 1 (49:44):
I think we hide it.

Speaker 6 (49:45):
Well you don't. There is no hide it is. It
is full bore well eighty.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
HD, there's a hide on the full bore.

Speaker 6 (49:56):
Oh you know what? Trade that into game stuff? Where gone? Nice?

Speaker 5 (50:00):
Go commercial free next year On Rock ninety five to five, Man, I.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Hate coming down from Bush, but it has to happen.

Speaker 6 (50:10):
That's why you got to stay up. That's an easy
come down.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Everything's everything has to end on Rock ninety five to five.

Speaker 6 (50:18):
I used to like Bush.

Speaker 1 (50:18):
Mooregone like him.

Speaker 6 (50:20):
Less Australia did Gavin Rossdale?

Speaker 1 (50:22):
Do you he cheated on Gwen Stefani, cheated.

Speaker 6 (50:26):
On Gwen Stefani in front of me? What else did gather?

Speaker 8 (50:30):
Now?

Speaker 6 (50:30):
He came to do a show one time when they
were together.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
Oh you mean like actually and he said, hey, I
was talking about I was talking to another friend about
my massage therapist friend and he.

Speaker 6 (50:37):
Was like, oh, you got a massage therapist? Could she
come massage me? On the bus? He was together with
Gwen at the time.

Speaker 3 (50:42):
Ew what a new law went into effect in Australia
that band's social media for kids under fifteen.

Speaker 6 (50:53):
Do we think that's a good idea? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (50:56):
I think with everything there is nuance to it. I
see good and bad. Go on, I need more details please.

Speaker 3 (51:01):
They are not allowed to have accounts on any major
platforms including Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat and even YouTube.

Speaker 5 (51:09):
Okay, so with this, I would like some media training
as well, so that when they do get the reins
being a sixteen year old of being able to have
access to social media. These are things you can do.
These are things that will ruin your life, Like this
is going to stay. The Internet exists for ever and

(51:33):
we communicate that. Yeah, it's a communication tool where we've
had to adapt and grow into this, whereas the newer
generations it's here and their parents have already subjected them
to social media without their permission and at a certain level.
So let's just get some general media training for the
new pups that are about to jump into the world

(51:55):
and essentially change what the social landscape is.

Speaker 3 (51:57):
But are you guys getting as many ads for Instagram
teens as I am? Like, it's Instagram now has teen accounts.
It's like, I think they think I'm a parent. So
they're like, you know, push them, I as guante.

Speaker 2 (52:11):
Yeah, no, no, no, They're like, mentally this person seems
about twelve.

Speaker 6 (52:19):
Well, his spelling, we should start pushing him.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
It's time for him to explore the teenage side matures.

Speaker 6 (52:25):
He's not even using the A to spell well, no,
I am.

Speaker 3 (52:29):
The law passed last November, so then they have to
kind of figure out what they were doing. A poll
found seventy seven percent of Australian support the idea. That's
a's a good number. Fans think it'll get kids off
their phones and encourage them to hang out in person again.
Other people think it'll backfire and leave them less informed
and less connected.

Speaker 2 (52:44):
I have so many thoughts and I will try to
make them so quick. One yes, maris on your like,
it is still important to learn the Internet in media training,
and we kind of take for granted that we did
come up with the Internet, But also like think about
how resting is to try to explain Internet things to
someone a couple decades older than you, right, and things

(53:06):
that seem so obvious to us because we have been
on the Internet from a young age, they're completely blind to.

Speaker 6 (53:13):
So imagining handicapping them in a weird way, arguably. Yes.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
Another thought that I have is that we are so
concerned with getting these kids off their damn phones and
damn tablets and all these studies with depression and anxiety,
And yes, true, and I don't want to undermine that.

Speaker 1 (53:29):
I'm not a scientist. I don't know what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (53:32):
Get them off their phones to do what the parents
are also on their phones and we're not taking our
kids to things. We literally just did a whole study
about how people aren't leaving their house.

Speaker 1 (53:41):
That is also parents too. Whether or not you have
kids is not a factor there.

Speaker 2 (53:47):
So if you are going to be off your phone
also and engaging with your kids and giving them something
creative and good and not also unhealthy to get into instead, dope,
I just don't think that taking into consideration the fact
that this is kid's third place. They're not hanging out
at the electrical box. You're right outside the telephone poll

(54:08):
at seven pm anymore and waiting till the lights come
on when it's dark.

Speaker 3 (54:11):
But texting kids are already finding ways around it. There's
a Reddit thread up right now that where kids are
talking about how they can buy those realistic masks you've
seen so they can skirt the system, you know, all
that stuff.

Speaker 6 (54:22):
So I mean kids are gonna figure out a way
around it. Yeah, what But for my.

Speaker 1 (54:25):
Strict Catholic school days, I've just gotten good at lying.

Speaker 3 (54:28):
If I had a kid, I'm in. I think that
being being introduced to certain things too young is detrimental
and can hurt people.

Speaker 2 (54:35):
So I like it.

Speaker 6 (54:36):
I think it's great.

Speaker 1 (54:37):
Yeah, give them away from porn bang.

Speaker 6 (54:40):
Terrible just in a cream not now here's a bit
only the blug it.

Speaker 5 (54:57):
We got tickets for you to see Evans, So yeah,
Box is gonna be on that tour along with the
Nova Twins.

Speaker 6 (55:03):
It don't get no better than I love God girls. Yeah,
they don't get no better than that.

Speaker 5 (55:08):
They're gonna be a Credit Union one Amphitheater on Wednesday,
July eighth, and we want you to be there.

Speaker 6 (55:13):
But first, yeah, play a little game with us.

Speaker 5 (55:16):
Okay, we're playing Fun to the Head right now, trivia
game where you've got to answer questions and we get
shot with nerves.

Speaker 1 (55:24):
Shoot, what do we get?

Speaker 6 (55:25):
We get shot with nerves shots?

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (55:27):
Yeah, that.

Speaker 5 (55:32):
You can also take us hostage to provide you to say,
but we need you eight four four ninety five fifty Michael,
how does that number go?

Speaker 6 (55:41):
Eight for four jing Nobell Rock Collar ten rock ninety
five five. What's going on?

Speaker 4 (55:53):
Larry?

Speaker 6 (55:55):
Okay, so.

Speaker 2 (55:57):
Let's let's start off with a big round of applause
for corporate absolutely crushing it with the best equipment for
the number one radio broadcasting company and the country. Our
audio equipment did not record our call with Larry on
Fun to the Head. But Larry, I would like you
to recap what you just experienced because we can tell

(56:19):
them what happened. We know how things go down from
the show's point of view. I want to hear from
your point of view, as dear listener.

Speaker 7 (56:26):
I mean, just one some awesome tickets. The trivia that
you guys are very.

Speaker 1 (56:35):
Tricky, Yeah, did you feel trick?

Speaker 7 (56:38):
We had a forest reference, you know, having heard that
in a while.

Speaker 6 (56:51):
Yeah, this is better than the contest.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
I love about the forest comebaccentus. No one does it
well and not using and of itself doing it well.

Speaker 2 (56:59):
Very nue It's like weird southern drawl. Oh, incredible, Larry.
We're sorry to not hear that beautiful version of Fun
to the Head.

Speaker 6 (57:12):
It was great and corporate.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
We'll be talking soon, Cala.

Speaker 5 (57:18):
We'll have more Evans's tickets and Fun to the Head
later this week.

Speaker 6 (57:35):
It is your time to shine right here.

Speaker 5 (57:37):
On Rock ninety five to five with the morning mash
bit because it's text time.

Speaker 6 (57:44):
I absolutely love text time. Yes, I love hearing from you.
It's so much fun. Everybody's out there, they're doing different things,
they're going different place, they're going to work.

Speaker 3 (57:54):
It's fun to get in the world that you're living in.
And let's start at the seven one six. Cold Play
for me ranks right up there with Nickelback, Oasis and
Theory of a Dead Man is some of my favorite
music ever. Nice Coldplay landed at the top of the
top ten most ticket sales for the millennium.

Speaker 1 (58:12):
Those are just constantly touring too, and that helps.

Speaker 6 (58:14):
That's true eight fifty. By the way, if you want
to get your textsin or let's see here from the
eight four to seven go to home depot, get yourself
a Milwaukee M eighteen leaf blower or it says electric,
or spend good money to buy a gas powered one.
You could use it on your car, use it on
the snow, and clear the whole neighborhood.

Speaker 1 (58:35):
Yeah, they're talking about for snow.

Speaker 2 (58:37):
We were talking about earlier how I was so excited
that I had just finished shoveling and then it rained
and so it had washed away all the remnants.

Speaker 1 (58:44):
And then it just snowed on top of this. That's awesome.

Speaker 6 (58:47):
And how I like you're sweeping.

Speaker 1 (58:49):
I like to sweep instead of shovel. Here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (58:52):
Even that's still expensive. I need a snowblower that's like
a handback.

Speaker 6 (58:57):
Yeah, tiktoking about shot. Just go on, TikTok. It's a
really good one too. It looks good ex census no nothing.
I don't know how much it is, but I've seen it, Okay.

Speaker 3 (59:08):
From the eight one five. Hey, Mike, I've been working
at Navy Pier for the Corps, and I know you
like ramen. Any good ramen near River North, Yes, Streeterville, Poke, Poke,
there's a lot of good ramen actually around there, but
that's my favorite place.

Speaker 6 (59:22):
And that's pretty close.

Speaker 8 (59:23):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (59:24):
From the six three to oh, the number one stressor
is my husband. That's from Amber. Where were we talking about.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Stresses and we were talking about life events that are
major stressors for.

Speaker 1 (59:33):
People, is like the tents with your motion, marriage.

Speaker 2 (59:35):
Kids, buying a house, and for Amber jes her husband
and I know way out of that it's oh my god,
don't take there.

Speaker 1 (59:45):
I don't necessarily recommend it.

Speaker 3 (59:46):
But arthritis came up on the show today in Maris
You got a little knee, I got some in my foot,
You got any aritis?

Speaker 2 (59:54):
Yet I feel like I'm starting to get the beginnings
of it in my fingers.

Speaker 1 (59:59):
From Piano too Clear and also from your.

Speaker 6 (01:00:01):
Mom from those six three yoh, did we just hear
the origin of Michael's arthritis? How about that fifteen foot
drop to get onto the floor for a Green Day
show and the lights went out?

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
Could have been maybe that one, maybe one of the
other million times you've thrown yourself off of something or
into something something.

Speaker 5 (01:00:21):
Crack my heat fair snowboarding Michael did get attacked by
Jojo the mascot from jewel Osco last year.

Speaker 6 (01:00:27):
I was thinking about that this morning.

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
I thought that that mascot jumps on me again because
it like it legitimately hurt me.

Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
No, I think it's your time, do your turn to
do a sneak attack.

Speaker 6 (01:00:36):
Yeah, my lawyer will be there tomorrow. Speaking of tomorrow,
from the nine to one nine. Somebody wants to pre
donate before the event tomorrow, I say just wait and
donate tomorrow.

Just helping the kids, man, helping the families who are
having a tough time this season. It's an incredible thing.

Speaker 1 (01:01:01):
We're taking donations over the phone, text online. The bells.

Speaker 6 (01:01:05):
Was it a bell last year? When somebody donates, we
can that bell.

Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
You know what I love about doing it around this
summer or two is you know how you feel a
little guilty when you're buying Christmas presents for people and
then you throw one in and then you're like, oh,
but I shouldn't because I should only buy things for
other people.

Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
If you donate here.

Speaker 2 (01:01:21):
Then you also kind of like buy yourself a little
good will to get yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:01:25):
Something, you know what I mean. It's like going for
a jog and then eating ice cream.

Speaker 6 (01:01:30):
So nice. Sounds like jogging. Upset.

Speaker 2 (01:01:34):
This is your exercise of goodwill to reap your just
rewards from bezos on Amazon later probably, Let's be realistic.

Speaker 1 (01:01:43):
Hey, you're shipping and handling to the kids.
