Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I felt like I was stepping out into half this morning. Haw. Yeah, Oh,
it wasn't that bad. It was freezing. I think it
was colder this morning than it wasn't that game yesterday. Yeaheah,
I was chilly went out yesterday and today.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
It's eight degrees right now, feels like negative seven.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Yeah it is. And it's windy. That's the thing that
sucks the worst inside the stadium. It wasn't windy. It
wasn't I wasn't even that cold. Oh you got lucky. Yeah,
that's nice. Our city pretty windy a little bit. You know,
it's not because of the wind. It's because of the
hot air from the politicians. Have you ever heard of Oh?
Is it? Yeah? Oh is it? I got many more
fun facts, Yeah, please share more.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
This is the morning mash bit on Rock ninety five five.
My name's Maria Palmer.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
I'd be Maresh, I'm Michael.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
We're getting there. We are feeling the end of the
year burnout with you.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yes. Oh, it's vacation, right, We're on vacation. We're all
on vacation for the rest of the year.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
I mean mentally, we're going to be dissociated for the
rest of the year, that's for sure.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
I mean, we've got a Christmas party exactly. It's over.
The executives will not be here for the next two weeks.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
We never started working. So the good news. No change
of routine for us.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Lots of fun stuff on the show today. I'm going
to tell you about a holiday treat, a new viral
holiday treat that I don't know if I think, I
don't know if I want.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
To try it or not. It's got to be tried,
but it's not at the top of my list.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, I don't even know what it is and I
don't want it. Okay, vanilla ice cream with wine on it?
Well now black, Okay, you'll get a little drunk. That
could be kind of fun to say, maybe.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Although I feel like they've been trying to do the
wine an ice cream thing forever. There's some stereotype of
like a chick crying after a breakup and eating drinking wine, and.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
They're like, it must be because it's a good combo.
Like No, by the way, did you guys hear the
Bears are in first place? Number one? Yeah, let's go
get after it.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
Don't stretch your wings too far. We still got three
weeks of football.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Up well by me to be stretching his wings. They're bears.
I love you sometimes twy two. I don't love you
right now. Ooh, Packers fans and Chiefs fans. There's a
lot of people upset with a new music. I'm knocking
ninety five fives. Michael's obsession with clouds cannot be overstated.
It went up to the cloud and you can't get

(02:21):
it down from Nobody understands the cloud. It's a mystery.
Here's weather, it's shorts out, it's warming up. Not today,
though today's going to be very cold, still high twenty
four to low six. Maria, you were just saying, what
was it like? Feels feels like negative sevens. Feels like
negative nine right now in my computer. Yeah yeah, and
a little windy, which is obviously keeping the temperature down.

(02:43):
But by Thursday forty five degrees. I hate that. That
feels so relieved. I know, right, I feel like twenty
two or something. But break out the bikini, but donning it.
So Thursday forty five, Friday high twenty four, but then
Saturday day and Sunday high forty one and thirty five. Boy,
balmy ball me indeede a tropical paradise in Chicago. Lamb,

(03:06):
this is in November. I want to lake dip, lake dip,
a little lake dip, although Thursday is going to be
rained too, So will you do a polar plunge with me? No? Why?
I literally when I I'm not Maria, this is no.
It'll be now a requirement on the show. Guess what
it's in my contract. I don't have to. There's two

(03:28):
things in my contract that we refuse to do. That
is one of them. My body does not do well
in cold water, especially a polar plunge, and plus like,
I don't want to be skinny and shaken like a chihuahuah,
but at their natural state. You know how much worse
it is. And then I'm mad because I'm so cold
it hurts.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
What about an ice bucket challenge? No, you don't even
care about als.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
No polar plunge, no eating competitions. That was my two,
my two things. You seem like a kind of guy
who wouldn't eat. No, I'm just shoving glizzies down my
throat from a crowd of people.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
I'm glad you didn't ask me, because I've been the
same reacity.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
There are conventions. No, I hate polar plunges. I think
they're great because they like raise money for charities and stuff,
But it's just not my ideal. Maris. Would you do
a polar plunch with her negative? Oh you would do one, Maria?
Hell yeah, Well all right, we'll find you on the
polar plunge. People are calling already.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah, but I want to like do it, like, I
don't want to go by myself. Like I'm not spending
a random Saturday afternoon just being like, oh well I
have free time, let me go dip into icy lake Michigan.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
Well what about the charity. I'll do it for a charity.
But like you guys gotta do it too.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
No way.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
There's a guy there jumps in the lake. He still
does it lake jumper on Instagram or something. Every morning
he goes and jumps in the lake. Yeah you know
who else does that? My mother really? Yes, she loves
just a cold. I can't believe, but she does it
like once a week.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
What about She says it resets her nervousness. There's a
lot wrong with our family. I'm evidence of that.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
The that's all we get it is the morning match
fit on Rock ninety five five just no fronto. The
head is going to be after eight today and we
got led Zeppelin two tickets up for grabs, so be
on the lookout for that.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Show number one for led Zeppelin two because there's two
shows there. You go, got it. That's too much math.
We only have so many fingers.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Okay, So we know that we are similar enough to rats,
that's why we use them for studies in science. But
never have ever felt so connected as hearing that this
study found rats are more likely to use cannabis when
they're stressed.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Yeah, we truly are.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
So they had rats in this little cage thingy and
they were able to watch them over three weeks, and
they had access to cannabis vapors. So they're not like
forcing the rats to yeah, to smoke weird a little joint,
but if they wanted to and.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Still gonna get stolen.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
So the rats that had the stress hormone cord costs,
corda coaster oonne that one cordostro and cord coaster were
more likely to use the cannabis, and then they became
calmer than the other rats.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
So just behavior, it's animal behavior. I was gonna say,
I don't think they needed to do a study on this,
but I'm so glad they did. They wanted to get
rats high, They got rats high. I just want to
get one of these for a pet.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
If you want to get rats high, you go and
you smoke your joint outside in the Chicago and you
blow downward.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
You just see him like good, been around a corner.
What's that? The rats don't need the munchies more than
they already have them.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Actually, you want to slow them down, just leave a
weed brownie out and then came here.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
Yeah, but then it'll be like that raccoon that got
drunk like was laid out the bathroom floor.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Yeah, you're gonna have a bunch of rats just like
chilling outside being like yo, you got chips.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
But you just you catch them. We solve the rat problem.
Master splinter, is that you probably did. I mean, he's
pretty calm. He was taking care of for uh, teenage
newtant ninja turtles. So yeah, teenage Newton. That's so crazy.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
That thing I've heard them referred to as mean age
to needle tootles.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
I never heard of it before. Fible goes West a
rat was fible a rat he's a mouse. The mouse,
damn mouse probably get high too though. Yeah, of their
famous rats.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
I mean, if you look at animals in the wild
eating fermented fruit, they're chasing that.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Well fermented, that's alcohol.

Speaker 3 (08:07):
I mean, but they're chasing. They're chasing another plane. They need, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
The dragon.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
They're not trying to be stuck here in this Monday life.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
They grave in abriation. Even the rats need something.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
Five ish things you almost certainly need to know. All right,
let's start with a giveaway. Eight four four nine five
ninety five fifty. We want you to go to PBR
Unleash the beast. Hell yeah, headed over to United Center
on Friday, December nineteenth. This is gonna be some old
riding and we're gonna see who can last eight seconds.

(08:49):
If you want to go eight four four nine five
five ninety five fifty, I.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Can almost ask last eight seconds. Almost. Oh, you'd be
a great bull rider, getting a two. Don't forget about
mutton busting. Just hold. They wrapped their arms around a
sheep and they see how far they can go. It's
not it sounds like not at all.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
Speaking of the drunk raccoon that we brought up a
little bit earlier. He is a mischievous little raccoon, and
I'm not sure how they know that this one is
the specific one. On social media, you may have seen
a drunk raccoon laid out at a bar because he
had I love him Chase the elephant, the elephant, the
pink elephant.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Okay, yeah, you remember that from learning zones. Yeah no, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
But he's been caught breaking into karate studios, a DMV
and stealing snacks from all over the city.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
And I guess they're just going to let him live
his best life. Yes, that's awesome. No surprise here.

Speaker 3 (09:51):
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation is the top holiday film across
the country, the top movie in thirty one states, along
with a Christmas Story coming in at Second Home Alone
Else and Santa Claus.

Santa Claus was six.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
Doctor Seuss How the Grinch Stole Christmas was number five,
great one.

that from start to finish.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Ever, which one the Grinch? Oh? You know how they
do Every year, I watch The Grinch and I make
Grinch Margarita's It's Maara Green Margarita's. But then you cut

and ninety five dollars coming in adult sizes what and
they will be dropping on National Syrup Day.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
Do you know how many grand slams I can get
for that? Probably three weeks worth.

Speaker 3 (11:06):
A gentleman who has got a complaint for a tackie
declarations responded in the best way possible. After trying to
order a four foot Santa, he ended up with a
twenty foot Santa. So this year he ordered a twenty
foot Snowman to go along with that, and the HOA
was not happy. They sent him a letter which led

(11:27):
to him buying a sixteen foot grinch to add to
his giant displays.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
And I got to say, that's the best way to
clap back. I'm unfamiliar with h oas if you screw up,
do they find you. They can't find it, and they'll
charge you money. I'd never pay it. Let me get whatever,
take me to Cork. Basically, that's how it goes. And

Speaker 3 (16:36):
Thank you for joining us today for Dungeons and Dragons. Maria, Yeah,
you got a recap for us?

Speaker 1 (16:41):
I sure do. Hey, Steve, have you played D and
D before? Oh, like thirty five years ago? Okay? Cool?
Forget everything that you know. This is basically choose your
own adventure.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
So we are on the quest to build the perfect
Chicago hot dog from the finest ingredients assembled across Chicago
good Land. We have just gotten the hot peppers and
the celery salt from Whole Foods. We have decided last
time that we're going to steal our tomatoes from corporate
Chill James's garden. So today the gang is still within

(17:16):
the Whole Foods.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
They've decided where they're going.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Now they have to decide how they're going to get
from Whole Foods, do corporate chill James's house in Lincoln Park.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
So, Marius, yes, what do you propose. Let's hail a
rickshaw off the street?

Speaker 4 (17:34):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (17:34):
Okay, we have a rickshaw Asanovich.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
What do you propose? Oh? Do I have to do it? Okay,
We're going to get through the list first. I want
to say Uber Black.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
And Uber Black okay, and either or of Steve. How
do you propose we travel as a gang?

Speaker 1 (17:52):
Oh, let's take a oh a boat? Okay, all right,
I like it.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
All right, We're gonna start with Marius's remind me what
yours was?

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Rickshaw?

Speaker 2 (18:04):
The Rickshawshaw, Let's get Mesonovich for our Uber.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
Black, get the heaters on and the free waters and
plugins for our phones.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Pick up five five okay, okay? And for our boat.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
We gotta find ourselves a boat.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
On the bright side, we're at a Whole Foods.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
You want to know.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
Who goes to Whole Foods, the boat owning population. Yes, indeed,
so the gang travels just outside the doors of the
Whole Foods.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
They look around the parking lot outside. They don't see
too much.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
On the bright side, there's a whole second level you guys,
head up a little icy ramp, shout out Chicago land
weather and all the snow. Luckily you get your bearings
in the salt as you travel up there, and lo
and behold a boat, for some reason, still.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Hitched to a truck in the middle of winter.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
It's very icy and snowy, and there is a tarp
on the boat. So therefore this one has clearly been abandoned,
which means it's free for the.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Taking, a little stealing. Indeed.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Indeed, now, either or of Steve, we have this boat
just sitting here. Would you like to try to take
the boat in and of itself?

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Would you like to try to get in the truck,
or would you just like to first investigate and see
what you're working with.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Let's investigate first, Let's investigate roll for how great he
has that investigating?

Speaker 1 (19:51):
Oh number one, it's so bad at investigating. It's kind
of a joke. The team tries just send you over.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yeah, I actually don't know how that happened, but they
just stay away from it.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
Don't mean at gold and I can't stop it now,
so good at it?

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Yeah, Mary is a Masanovich. Ask either ord to go
check it out. Either or is a little little shy,
a little nervous. He doesn't want to go check out
with that thing. So he goes, yeah, it's all good,
and they go, hey, man, you didn't even walk over there.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
He's like, I can see it.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
That's fine, and we will see what happens tomorrow on
MMP Dand.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
All right, Steve, thanks for that investigation there. But you're
going to see Brad Williams the comedian. He's going to
be over at the Chicago Theater on Friday, October sixteenth,
twenty twenty six, planning well ahead for next year. If
anybody else is looking to get tickets, head on over
to ticketmaster dot com.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
All thanks to our friends at Live Nation. Do you
know who that applause is for? Hw me?

Speaker 3 (20:54):
Because I just found out today today, years old, that
that is a David Bowie cover. Oh yeah, con fact,
I got something to listen to on the iHeart Radio
app on the way home today.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
Oh the iHeartRadio App.

Speaker 2 (21:08):
I hear that they have all your favorite music and
all your favorite podcasts.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
And your favorite radio shows. You could even listen to
this show commercial free and music free. You could just
slam through the talking parts.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
And money free Yeah, it's just free.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
I like that we're still camera free.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
But we'll keep doing those apps anyway. What I'm not
going to do is sit here and pretend that we
should be mimicking everything about British cuisine. But I kind
of like what these two soccer teams in England did,
or should we say football, Brentford and Wolves. They've dropped
their beef burgers at their stadiums and replaced them with

(21:47):
venison burgers.

Speaker 1 (21:48):
You're gonna say plant based burgers. I can do venison
all day. Oh we're going deer meat. Buddy, never had venus.
It's really good. It takes I'll have my dad sound
some Okay, we grew up on venison. He hunted to
feed our family. We're kind of poor.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
So I would compare venison to other meats that are around.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
It's you can't very specific to it's pretty specific taste. Yeah,
I can almost taste. I don't know how to explain
it though. It's a little more gamy than beef.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Okay, next question, the difference between chicken and duck.

Speaker 1 (22:22):
If you get them like a spike or like a
small deer, young deer, it can be super good. Yeah,
super tender, and.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
The same way that duck is better than chicken, I
would say the same ways that venison is better than beef.
Absolutely really yeah, it's a little gameier, a little more
rich in flavor.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Then we'll get you some venison. There's got to be
some hunters out there. I saw so many people in
hunter outfits of that.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
On Hey Dad, I know you're listening right now, Steven r.
If you could get us a deer this season.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
That would be great. He does that awesome.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
Yes, So this more than twenty sporting venues in the
UK and Ireland have done exactly the same thing. It's
part of an environmental push because venison has a much
lower carbon footprint than beef.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
Are the deer fart and less than the cows?

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Well yeah, and they're smaller too, so less gas as well.
And it's they're serving it on a seaweed lined tray
in a brio style bun that's formed through regenerative flowery okay,
and it's all, oh, okay, so this is where we're
going to make changes because again we left that monarchy

(23:32):
for a reason. It's all topped with ketchup and mayonnaise
and p from surplus vegetables sounds horrific. I don't want
ketchup on venison.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Oh okay, it wouldn't Mark.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
I don't think you don't want unless you're some weird British.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
I have different tastes. I guess I'm not British again.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
There's a reason that we colonized over here, and we
decided to get away from there. And the food was
one when we wanted cheesy fries and that is the
American way.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
So we'll make it better. But I do like the
venison burger. Okay, so this is a good thing. I
like it. I can't wait for you to try it, Maris.
We'll have to bring it in and do it on
the air. It'll be fun.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Well a little venison for breakfast, sure, yeah, yeah, we
really do need to you. I do venison and eggs.
Likes taking eggs kind of. You don't have any like
hunters in your family? I guess not.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
Hey, I'd like to raise my hand as the black
guy in the studio. You know what we don't do
in the middle of the fall, go hunting. Really, I
know there are black hunters out there. It wasn't my family,
not in.

Speaker 1 (24:34):
The least well, mine did a lot. You have a
black family, No, no.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
Deef Leopard and they're a festive holiday song about decorating
Christmas cookies on Rock ninety five five.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Oh my god, I love that one. Thank you, thank you, Mike,
you take it away. Let's do a little rock news.
Tom DeLong has turned fifty too. O. There we go,
we got it. Wow, where are you?

Speaker 5 (25:11):
And I'm so sorry my childhood.

Speaker 1 (25:15):
Tom DeLong is fifty years old. That doesn't make you
feel a little And Matt Cameron joined Taylor Momson on
stage and Everett Washington over the weekend. They played a
sound Garden song halfway there together feeling more rumors that
Taylor Momson will be the lead singer that will tour
with Soundguard. I'm love that so good on so many levels.

(25:35):
And then speaking of Soundgarden, we saw Brandy Carlyle also
sing with Soundgarden. She was she was at a big
show this weekend. There was a company called what's their name?
Darn it, it doesn't matter. There's a company Eldridge Industries. Okay,
there we go. They're worth nine billion dollars through a
holiday party. Are they hiring it? Do they have cameras?

(25:59):
The performers at their holiday party were Young Blood, Brandy
Carlyle Read Hot Chili, Pepper's front named Anthony Keatis and
drummer Chad Pearl, Jams, Eddie Vetter and Bruno Mars.

Speaker 6 (26:12):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (26:12):
You know, normal holiday show. That's an easy one, and
we have some audio from this. Let's go to Bruno
Mars covering Smells like Teen Spirits.

Speaker 4 (26:20):
Oh Jesus, I.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Like the little subtlety there, a little change without.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
It's a hard song to cover because Bruno Mars is
a really, really good vocalist. And what made Kirk quirk
was that he wasn't that good, but he was good
at what he was good at, you know what I mean.
Like he had those grunge vocals that said, I'm not
trained in this, but you like what you're hearing. You
don't know why cigarettes we know why we like Bruno Mars.

(27:02):
He can do those riffs, he can hit all those notes.
So you kind of have to do an impression of
Kurt to make Kurt's music work.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
But then you always hear the impression. Give me young Blood,
start me up. Yeah. By the way, all the musicians
are out there, splashes out there playing Jock mccagan's out
there playing Chad from the Chili Peppers is on the drums.
I love this use of young Blood's voice.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
I would never think of like a Stone's being a
good spot for that kind of vocalist with that emo
sort of like struck me yeah, because he's got that
sort of emo wine to his voice, which can be
annoying if you're not into the emo wine.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
As we all know, Pearl Jam my favorite band, So
this is my favorite cover. Eddie Vedder, young Blood, Anthony Keatis,
all the guys on the instruments doing Johnny Be good
Bye Chuck Berry, and then they closed the whole They

(28:11):
closed the whole show out with Rocking in the Free
World Neil Youngcover, Eddy Better young Blood, Anthony Kias, Brandy Carlile,
I Am Bruno mars All singing, Oh my God, I
mean I are the world. This just makes me so
excited for our iHeart Christmas party and what he'll be
at that. I'm sure they'll pull out all this stop.

Speaker 3 (28:30):
I'm assuming there's going to be an email going out
who wants to sing Christmas?

Speaker 1 (28:34):
I mean, Riya, you're up and you're not getting on
for all.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Yeah, there was one yesterday, So it's all good news.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
All of the well, I mean really depending on how
you look at it. If you put a positive enough
spin on it, this is all good news, but it
is in fact bad news. Bears women found dead inside
dollar tree freezer.

Speaker 1 (29:37):
Jeez, a call down.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Wow, and we assume what employee just kind of went
in and put a dollar tag right on her she.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
Was in the freezer.

Speaker 2 (29:48):

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Veterans, I E. Stone call Sean Michaels the undertaker.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
Yeah, should we hit the bulls?

Speaker 1 (31:52):
I can hit it real quick. Don't hit the bulls
the charts. That's bad news. Bawls have lost seven out
of their last eight and dropped another one of the Pelicans. Uh,
last night, sorry, not last night? Four? Yes, well last
night one fourteen to one four at the United Center.
It's just turned bad for the bulls. You know what,
Marson asking your questions. It's bad for the bulls. The

(32:15):
Bulls had a great start when Kobe White came back. Yep,
the team started not playing as well. To think there
was a just a vibe, I don't. Yes, it's clear
place the vibe changed completely. But the bench has not
shown up.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
The team has not shown up, and it's a rejelling
of sorts needs to happen, and.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
It has not happened. Doctor shols on that nobody is
really showing up for this. But can we talk about
some good stuff?

Wow, what a game? I still only know those lyrics.
Let me tell you a move for Winter Games. Here,
wait till the game starts and buy a ticket fifty.
I was sitting fourteen rows up from the I was
right behind the bear's bench. This also only works if
you live near the state. I didn't think about that. Yeah,
or you could watch it indoors. That's true too. It

(33:14):
was really fun though. There was really something cool about
being You were telling me this, and you're right, these
cold weather games.

Speaker 3 (33:20):
Everybody's bonding in that moment because of the weather.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
So it's just a lot of fun. One of the
most funchable was just looking at how everybody was dressed,
because some people were in like full bear costumes. Yeah,
and everybody's just so warmed up. One guy looked like
you just took every blanket off the back of the couch,
just wrapped himself up in it. But there was Santa
was there. I mean it was awesome. What you gotta do.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
You won't do a polar plunge, but you will sit
in freezing temperatures for hours on end.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
I just wore snowboard here. I was warm. Yeah, I
actually wasn't cold at all. It was nice. You got lucky.
The wind wasn't with it. Yeah, it wasn't at all.

Speaker 3 (33:53):
Bears beat up on the Browns, and I thought this
might have been a trap game just because Miles care
and then Shuder Sanders has absolutely nothing to lose. But
the Bears prevailed on this one. Yeah, secondary making Shuder
look like a rookie quarterback yesterday, Miles getting close to
the sack record.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
But not. Some times I forget.

Speaker 3 (34:20):
Sometimes I forget, But yeah, impressive game by the Bears.
Packers are next on Saturday, and yep, mke got persons
won't be playing. Oh, Packers lost half their team. They
really got decimated. Man, even I was seeing on Twitter,
like even they're like, come on, man. I was listening

night and don't ask, and there's one guy on the
radio and he was like, no, the Bears are gonna
get to the super Bowl. They're going all the way

Thanks Lyra and we here have the most polite coworker.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
His name is Michael Mason.

Speaker 3 (41:00):
When he has to toe, he gets a running start
towards the door, flings the door wide open, yells clear,
and rips ass. I apologize, man, laugh, And what he
doesn't realize is you are effectively trapping us in the
studio and we can't leave because you rip right outside

(41:21):
the door.

Speaker 1 (41:21):
No, it takes a few seconds to come out of
the pants, so the door is closed by the time
it comes out. That is not how it works, all right, Well,
yoll clear, So everybody outside the door can know to
get out of the way and then no.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
Justing straight to the window, so if they gotta go by,
they're not gonna wait.

Speaker 1 (41:38):
For it to just Well, you seem to look right
and left like I'm crossing the streets.

Speaker 4 (41:42):
I know.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
And it's very polite of you. Re done, Michael, and
we have been dusty. Oh oh boy, Do I have
a treat for you? Here is not another Well, there's
a new viral trend going around where people are pouring
red wine on vanilla ice cream for like a holiday snack.

(42:02):
It feels like it would be weird.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
It feels unnecessary just eat ice cream and drink wine?

Speaker 1 (42:10):
Why would we pour it onto the ice cream? What
makes that good? Whist and drink diet coke? I don't
mix them. Yeah, here's Sully the diet coke. But it's
the best. But we've we've had boozy ice cream before. Right, Well,
there's bourbon, there's bourbon or whiskey drizzle on ice cream.

(42:31):
They pour the eggnog poured over ice creams. Another thing,
espresso over ice cream.

Speaker 3 (42:35):
I'm thinking of Jenny's ice cream specifically, where they have
like bourbon and fuseed flavors wrapped into the ice cream.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
Do you give it that flavor?

Speaker 2 (42:44):
Not doing it for flavor or for for the buzz?

Speaker 1 (42:49):
Why do we drink? Well, that's my question. Tasty drink.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
Yeah, but sometimes you use the bourbon and stuff for
those flavors, Like say you want to bring out the
vanilla notes, the nothing notes whatever, You're not eating that
bourbon thing to have bourbon, needing the thing to bring
out the.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
Understood and on. That is a wine for flavor or
a wine for drunk. Bourbon makes a lot of sense.
Whiskey makes a lot of sense. Yeah, the red wine
at the top of my line.

Speaker 2 (43:13):
That's my question, right, And that's where I'm like, first
of all, the flavor doesn't sound good enough for this
to be a flavor thing, So you would think it
would be a drunk thing. But you're not having nearly
enough of the wine to get the buzz by just
drizzling it onto ice cream.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
There's not a lot of wine around the studio anymore.
But what I was thinking is maybe tomorrow I could
bring some wine in and pour it all over ice
cream and we could have we're talking about. I mean,
that's wine and coffee. Well, what you do is you

(43:50):
take a coffee cup. Sometimes you get skim I think
it just would taste weird, right, Mars, you're having the
same thing where it feels.

Speaker 3 (43:58):
Like this wouldn't be good. I feel feel like it
had to be almost a sweet wine. It worked a
lot better, like something more berry driven, but not just driven.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
What a Verry driven wine cream is.

Speaker 3 (44:18):
We're gonna not have wine in studio with ice cream
tomorrow shows we are ninety five minutes commercial free next.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
Right, literally though, what was she wearing of songs on
Rock ninety five five Stone tumble.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
Pilot sex type thing?

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Nay, wow, I mean it is anyway, Mikey, Yeah, I
get a horrible story here.

Speaker 1 (44:40):
This is kind of crazy. One of the bigger stories.
So that's breaking today. Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle
this is coming from TMZ had their throats slit by
a family member, possibly after an argument inside their Los
Angeles home, leading to their tragic deaths. This is coming
from TMC. It's unclear what exactly triggered the violence, which
went down Sunday afternoon in Brentwood, but Rob's one of

(45:02):
Rob's daughters found her parents dead and told police that
a family member had killed them. That's terrible. Yeah, that's man.
People magazine reporting that it is their son Nick, which
obviously that is you know, allegedly. We don't know. But
I didn't realize when I started seeing what Rob had done.
The Notebook. I didn't know Rob Reiner was the Notebook.

(45:25):
That was a great movie. He's so much.

Speaker 2 (45:27):
Also The Princess Bride, what yeah, that junk movie, which okay, yeah,
see I was going to be like, I hope it's
not too soon to say this, but now I don't
think it is at all.

Speaker 1 (45:42):
You killed Rob. I hate The Princess Bride. Michael Mason
killed Rob Reiner. Also, this is spinal tap Yeah, that's
another one. What. The guy had a pretty cool career
with regards to what he made it. There a lot
of really good acting credits. I remember him most from
New Girl. I never watch a New Girl, you know what.
I remember him the most from all in the Family.

Speaker 3 (46:04):
I didn't now we did talk about that off Mike.
I didn't realize that was him. Yeah, is it me
and Low for Meatball? Which one was he was in
the in the show? Wasn't his name like meet Low
for Meatball?

Speaker 4 (46:15):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (46:16):
Yeah, what did they call him? I can't remember head.
I bet it was meat It's just it's Gloria's husband.

Speaker 4 (46:21):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (46:21):
Yeah, I that's where I used to watch him, because
we used to. I think I've seen every single episode
of Ball in the Family that was right. Yeah, well
no TV Land. Yeah, well it was a favorite in
the Palmer household. I can imagine because that's basically what
the Palmer family was.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Kind of crazy story. By the way, if you ever
think about hurting someone, I just want to put it
out there, just don't call someone, call someone else, get
some help, because this, if this is his son that
did this, his life's over and their lives are over,
and it's such a mess, like, no matter how upset
you are, this is not the route to take.

Speaker 2 (46:55):
I mean to be fair, I don't think that he's
in the mindset of like, Okay, let me do something
more logical, like go to a therapist.

Speaker 1 (47:02):
No, he's trying to kill his parents. Well you said
that over the years he had struggled a little bit with.

Speaker 2 (47:08):
Yeah, he had started being in and out of rehab
in his teens as a pattern.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
Here dispatch audio captured La the lapd just calling for
backup at the Brentwood mansion around three thirty pm yesterday.
Larry David and yeah, who's the other Guydilly Crystal have
been seen at the house. Rob was seventy eight, Michelle
was sixty eight. Awful, absolutely awful, horribles going out to
the family or Shizzle is really what for Shizzle's He'll

A Russian company says it's developing remote controlled spy pigeons,
complete with brain implants, GPS cameras.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
And tiny solar powered backpacks. I think this is a
thing already, isn't it. They did it with cockroaches. That's awesome. Yeah,
but now we got pigeons. The operators can steer the.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
PJ one PJN one, Yeah, pigeon biodrone pigeons mid flight
using electrodes implanted into their brains, sending them on missions
that can stretch hundreds of miles. The pigeons live normal
lives while quietly collecting video with AI blurring faces and
sensitive details.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
Yeah right, as sounds like I thought you meant they
were fake pigeons. This is again, a real pigeons. Wow,
that's incredible.

Speaker 2 (48:59):
Yeah. Uh. The company openly claims the same tech could
be used on any animal after surgery, you know, like
a human.

Speaker 1 (49:07):
They got it. It's in my hand right now. I
have a camera everywhere. I don't even need to implant.
I love this. Hey, I blurs faces and sensitive details. No,
it doesn't shut up. You're one of you seen Black Mirror.
It's on the first episode or first season at watched it.

Speaker 3 (49:23):
You should because it's it's hidden home on a lot
of this stuff because it's happening. But like one of

through exploding you know, grocery stores and all kinds of stuff.

(53:53):
Someone left to comment here, Oh, Bob left to comedy says,
raccoon could help you find the perfect hot dog condiments.
We could, you know, roll for a raccoon. It'll get
a one or a twenty. Yes, it will either be
all all around from the six three to oh if
you guys like that. We're talking about how Venison is
being switched up in the UK. For cow meat because
it's better for the beef, better for the environment.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Same thing, right, Yeah, cow.

Speaker 3 (54:20):
Meat count burger specifically at stadiums.

Speaker 1 (54:24):
Yes, from the six three to Oh if you like venison,
get your hands on some elk. He's not kidding, Absolutely
delicious and my favorite. Grew up in Wyoming and went
hunting with dad every year. Elk is the s It
is so good. I don't think I've had it yet. Oh,
it's the best I can confirm. I haven't had it either.
I like anything a hunter gets. If I'm being honest,

(54:45):
I'd try it all. There has to be a restaurant
in town or something that does gain animals. I wouldn't
doubt it. We've got enough. Yeah, a butcher or something.
Let's see here.

Speaker 3 (54:55):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
Joe says, we grew up poor and got these generic
Christmas cookies call jingle cookies, and to this day I
still love them. They taste like Christmas. Somebody google Jingle cooking.
I'm looking it up right now. Let's see your Bob's
back added, He says, our tradition for Christmas is making
checks muddy buddies. I do love some checks mixed muddy buddies.
So that it's like chocolate. Is it buppy shoe?

Speaker 2 (55:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (55:20):
Are we just calling it a different name? I believe.

Speaker 7 (55:22):
So.

Speaker 3 (55:23):
The jingle cookies are the sugar cookies with the red
and green sprinkles. They're fun too hard, Yeah, but it's
I think it's more of the nostalgia.

Speaker 1 (55:32):
Yeah, yeah from the eight one four Venison is speed
beef you gotta cut. It's true because there are a
lot of muscle cook with extra oil or butter because
there's not a lot of fat on the muscle.

Speaker 6 (55:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (55:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (55:44):
Same with those antelope. Remember in Wyoming people would chot
antelope and they're like, it's not great eating. They're antelope
in Wyoming. Fascinating speed goats. I had no idea. I
was driving one time and there's a whole bunch of
them just running next to the car, and I was like,
let's see how fast you can go. I was to
like forty five miles an hour. I just surely thought
you were setting up a joke. No, okay, she's just shot.

Speaker 2 (56:07):
I thought in my head when I think antelope, I
think like the lion king.

Speaker 1 (56:13):
Did you think of the right animal?

Speaker 3 (56:16):
I'm assuming there's antelope, and like deary continent because they're
like deer.

Speaker 1 (56:20):
Yeah, deer of the planes. Deer of the planes. Let's
see here from the two one four. That's the Southern way,
Boys and girls. You can't have chili without a cinnamon roll.
Dustin from Arkansas, Arkansas, checking in this morning. Love that.
Maybe you're thinking prong horn.

Speaker 2 (56:37):
Prong horns are the closest thing to antelope that we
have in the US.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
All right, that's what I was thinking. I'd probably just
calling antelope. They look a lot like them, right, same people,
the same Yes they here? Is this what you're thinking?

Speaker 2 (56:48):
That's yeah, prong Hell boy, I sound the Super Books
with Michael Wayson.

Speaker 1 (56:55):
I don't know I believed it.

Speaker 2 (56:56):
I don't think that that's like that far out of
the round possibility.

Speaker 1 (56:59):
Yeah cluck from the sixty three to oh well, our
buildings closed this morning due to boiler issues, so I
get to stay home and spend the day with the morning.
Oh hell, love that. I love a good random day off.
That's no one's fault, like a bomb threat. Remember a
good bomb thread. Oh yeah, we had one of those.

(57:21):
It was not real at all. That's just a good,
enjoyable day for everyone. Good way to get time off
if you're willing to pull the trigger.

Speaker 2 (57:28):
Unless you're someone that searches for bombs, in which case
now you have extra work that day.

Speaker 1 (57:33):
But you can always text us a four fur and
yeah Pearl Jim giving us a waltz of sorts. The
Last Kiss I'm rocking ninety five to five. You could
do it at your wedding, would you? No? Why? Absolutely not?
Why that's that song? Why doesn't get Eddy vetter than
that you sent me up? Isn't that song about a
woman dying? I'm losing a lover called a Last Kiss?

(57:56):
So it's romantic something?

Speaker 4 (57:57):
Right?

Speaker 1 (57:57):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (57:58):
Yeah, we picked wedding songs off titles, not what they
actually mean.

Speaker 2 (58:02):
I love a happy song. You know another great happy song?
Semi charmed Life by Third Eye Blind one of my
favorite happy, sunshiny songs.

Speaker 3 (58:10):
I was thinking of Foo Fighters ever Long Acoustic would
be a good side.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
Also very definitely not great one.

Speaker 1 (58:20):
Yeah, you know what?

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Hinder Lips of an Angel one of the most romantic
songs you could ever play for someone, especially if you're
like trying to pull them for the first time.

Speaker 4 (58:30):
You know what?

Speaker 1 (58:31):
It almost works? Yeah, and by almost you mean it didn't. Yeah,
Like there was a fifty to fifty shot and it
went the other way like seventy thirty, and it still blew.
It still Lions almost won yesterday. I'm right now.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
I was about to say the Browns almost one in
that same way.

Speaker 3 (58:56):
You enjoy this, I know I am, because you know what,
when Week eighteen comes around and my phone is blowing
up because of the chaos, it's going to be happening
at Soldier Field.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
I can't wait, Maris, I cannot. Do you know what
team I am rooting against this week? Who are you
rooting against this week? Maybe? I hope I'm not wrong,
but I read that if the Bears beat the Packers
and the Detroit Lions lose, we are set for the playoffs.
It sounds about right. Damn, So I gotta root as
your team.

Speaker 3 (59:26):
Lion's gotta win out to stay relevant and then get
some help with you guys beating the Packers and then
the Packers got to lose a few.

Speaker 1 (59:34):
Who are you guys playing this next week? We have
the Steelers? Oh damn, you should beat them. That would
be an interesting game, all right, unless they steal it.
They could fun.

Speaker 3 (59:52):
Before before we fully wrap up. Okay, I know my
niece is in school. It should be in school today,
but it's her tenth birthday. Happy birthday, niece.

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
Uncle Marius at the mic, I like the side of
you family man, an uncle, but you've known this uncle. Yeah,
you're un Frankly, I'm learning. I'm unk too. I'm just
I look at these kids and I'm like, I don't
even know what you're talking about. No clue, I'm young

(01:00:21):
and cool. Well what do you have nieces and nephews? Yeah?
What do they call you? Aunt? What?

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
Aunt? No?

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
Aunt?

Speaker 2 (01:00:35):
I do get called aunt aria because they couldn't say
Maria when they were little.

Speaker 1 (01:00:41):
That sounds real bad. It sounds like Michael Head when
he ran into the hole. I crab my pants at
least not getting out of the studio, not tooting around.
You guys in school, they did call me Maria diarrhea.
So yeah, I want to unpack that.

Speaker 2 (01:00:57):
No one ever wants to unpack at See you tomorrow.
