Speaker 1 (00:00):
Happens to the best of us. You get to that
point with your phone and the battery gets down. What
point is it for you where you start like really
like starting to panic.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Because of where.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
I guess it depends on where I'm at and what
I'm doing, But for me at Disney or like a
theme park, because i know there's gonna be times where
I'm stuck in a line twenty thirty percent. If I
hit that twenty percent and I see the warning pop
up and it switches my phone to low battery, I'm
a little in panic mode at that point.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
I let it get pretty low before I start like
exiting out of all my apps and like, okay, I
can't take any more pictures, Like I need this for
the Uber home.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
What's it? What's yours? Seven seven percent?

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Seven percent?

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Oh, I could never I know.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
That's like really the only part of my life that
I'm like a risk taker. Otherwise I'm not a super risky.
I'm a risk averse person.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
I just know how much I use the phone. I'm
I know that I could blow through that seven percent
in seconds.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
Yeah, Like I'm not watching TikTok seven percent, but like
twenty percent, I can get a few more videos in yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
See, And I think we use our phones differently a
little bit too, because sometimes my phone is a YouTube TV.
It's not even my phone, like the kids are using
it for something, just to just to get by and
whatever it is we're doing.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
That's true. I didn't think of that.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
So I can't get below a certain percentage. Otherwise we're
we're fighting for our.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Life at times.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
I'm not even going to share what my screen time
is like per day, because even though you have three kids,
I bet mine's more.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
What is what is yours?

Speaker 1 (01:30):
It's bad?

Speaker 2 (01:31):
Is it a double digits?

Speaker 1 (01:33):
No? Not quite as close? Okay, yeah, well close, but
that's only because I take a nap during the day.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
I'll tell you why. Well it's eight hours right now.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
Okay, yeah, yeah, mine's a little bit more.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
A little bit more.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Yeah, but I had a moment this weekend where so
when you're running around Disney or Universal or any of
these parks, really they now have like maps in like
apps you can go to we'll tell you wait times
for everything, and you could bounce around and that's how
you get in to certain places and you see as
much as you can see. So you're on your phone
a little bit more outside of pictures and everything than

(02:06):
you normally would. And I found I don't know if
anybody's ever don this, if you have like a funny
or random place you've charged your phone. I found every
outlet that I possibly could at these places I'm talking.
We sat in restaurants by like trash cans because I
walked through, cased the place, walked through and said, there's
an outlet behind that table.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
We could sit there.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
We went to Starbucks and like, while you're waiting in line, Yeah,
there's an outlet.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
There always is. I didn't realize that, but there always is.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
If you go to Starbucks you were waiting in line
charging your phone.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Oh absolutely. We went to there.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
People behind you like what is this guy doing?

Speaker 3 (02:41):
There's there's certain rides and I don't remember which one's
off the top of my head, but you could sit
in line. And they have to have outlets, right because
they have to like clean the place at some point. Oh,
so like you could find an outlet somewhere. And I
got one of those superchargers so I could plug it
in and gain thirty percent just by sitting there for
a minute.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
And so I need to get me.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
One of those is where it's at? Yah, super tighter
of one hundred percent where it's at. But like, where's
the most random place you charged your phone? I did
it in a bathroom at one point.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
I've never charged my phone in a bathroom.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
It's awkward.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
But I have charged my phone behind a bar in
New Orleans when I was there for jazz fuss.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
Who watches your phone? When you do that?

Speaker 1 (03:20):
The bartender that's you have to be really really nice
and you got to buy a lot of drinks.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
You tip really well.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
You have to tip really really well. You kind of
got to let them know that. But you know, when
you're a younger lady and you're like, I'm from out
of town and my phone's about to die and I
don't know the area and I need this for uber,
They're like, okay, dummy, give me your phone.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
Hey, y'all, sound to get down with your favorite moaning show.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Don't matter if you went home a road already.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Time.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Mooning.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Good morning, Welcome to the B ninety three Morning Show.
What's your name and where are you from?

Speaker 4 (04:04):
My name is Anthony from a.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Stockbridge Anthony, Where did you charge your phone? Oh?

Speaker 4 (04:08):
This was gonna be good for all the Army people
out there. Okay, when I was in the Army, I
was in the infantry over in the first half, and
then Bradley fighting vehicles, which like a armor like vehicle
where people ride.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
In the back.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
There's ramps that comes down. Is everyone be in the
back of the Bradley fighting vehicle. And there was nowhere
to charge your phone where they had a little light
up at the top, wire up like a charger. You'd
have to tape like a little nipple on the end
of it. Wire it just right. But if you put
it in the light, tug the light and get charge
your phone that way the army mechanics, so I always

(04:44):
get so mad at us do it over and over.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
First off, thank you for your service.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
We appreciate Youah, that is kind of genius and dangerous.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
Oh it was awesome though. I be able to play
a little bit of music just changes a lot, you know.
Yeahciate you so much.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
This isn't like a weird place to charge your phone.
But I do think that this is weird phone charging behavior.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
What's that?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yimthy? My boyfriend he does not plug his phone in
at night? Why why he just doesn't he plugs it
in like during the day. Is that not panic inducing?

Speaker 2 (05:23):
How does he wake up in the morning.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
It's it's fine. His phone charges or holds enough battery
overnight to like keep it charged for his alarms. My
anxiety would never let me do that.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Uh there.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yeah, there are days where every night I have to
and I attribute it to just being late.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
A couple of times.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
I'll check my my alarm and make sure I have
a enough battery. Yeah, but b that I've set the
right alarm. I'll take it like three times. Did I
set it?

Speaker 2 (05:51):
I said it? No, I know, I said it.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
No, That's why I have like seven alarms. How in
the world I know? I know he must get up
at a normal time, like a regular time during the day.
I actually don't know what time he gets up. I'm
never there.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Whatever he watched, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
But yeah, I know that's bad for your phone. They
say just to like leave it when it hits one
hundred percent, just like leave it on the charger. Never
but it just has to happen with the alarm situation
and the time that we wake up in the morning. Yeah,
it could never be me.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
I woke up this morning at three o'clock, which is
not the normal time I get up and just stayed
up because I'm like you, I know, I know, I
was awake.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
I was awake. I agreed, agreed, But like.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
Did you get up and like gets loved one or
did you just like way there?

Speaker 2 (06:41):
I scrolled.

Speaker 3 (06:44):
Well, as I'm sitting in my phone my car yesterday
in the pickup line, I don't. Luckily my phone my
car has one of those chargers those like I don't
know what they're called, but.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
The charger that's in the center council like a charging path. Yes, yeah, yeah,
Alpha has one of those. It's the first time ever.
Usually I'm plugging into like the cigarette lighter or something,
but this is the first car I've ever had where
it just has the mat that you just like put
it right in the game.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
Oh one hundred percent of game change. So nice.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
But I was at I was at Disney over the weekend,
and I you have to use the map on there
so much that I'm draining my battery fast. So I
turned into like uh CSI of being able to find
an outlet in that place, I would find them everywhere,
and then as I'm charging it, people are looking at me.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Like, what is this guy doing? Why are you on?

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Why are you charging your phone at the happiest place
in the entire world. There are roller coasters here do
you know that?

Speaker 1 (07:38):
But not just somewhere in the park.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Oh, now we're specifically well, there was a Starbucks, there
was a the gift shop. I sat on the floor
in the gift shop one time, and then the next
day I did it in the bathroom.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Because there's outlets.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
You think about all these different places they have to clean, right,
so there's got to be an outlet somewhere. I one
time we went to a restaurant and I didn't need
to charge it, but I'm like, this is a prime
time to do it. Yeah, And I went walked through.
It was in the How To Train Your Dragon World.
I walked through the entire restaurant and found the only
table with an outlet, and we sat right there.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
And where else? The ride in line for a ride?

Speaker 2 (08:17):
They have them everywhere if you look hard enough, they're
just hidden.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Where is the weirdest place you've ever charged your phone?
Six one, six two four to two ninety three ninety three?
Can anybody beat in line at a ride at Disney?
What is the weirdest place you have had to charge
your phone. I feel like there are more places when
I have traveled than here at home. Yeah yeah, but yeah,

(08:42):
pick a bar in New Orleans, Vermont, Like it just
you run out and you panic because you gotta get
ubers in these places and ride shairs. And then it's like, hey,
I'll give you a really big tip and I'll order
lots of lots of drinks if you charge my phone
behind the bar.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
And you never, like nine times out of ten, you
don't walk into a room and immediately look for an outlet.
But when that phone hits a percentage, whatever your percentage
is for me, it's like twenty thirty, yeah percent, I
immediately am like eyeing every corner, every angle, every possible
place to charge my phone.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah. I ducked into like a little boutique hotel in
Denver when I was there this past summer because my
phone was like almost dead and I needed a charge.
It wasn't my hotel, it was somebody else's hotel, but
they had outlets and I just needed to sit there
for like ten minutes and get at least a couple
more percent worth it. Yeah, six one six two four two,

(09:38):
ninety three, ninety three.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Good morning, Welcome to the ninety three Morning Show. What's
your name and where are you from? Nick?

Speaker 5 (09:43):
From Wyoming?

Speaker 2 (09:44):
Nick? Where did you have to charge your phone?

Speaker 5 (09:46):
So? Waita. Whenever we go to concerts, we are always
like the first ones in line. We stand hours for
like stand in the line for like ten hours a day.
So we run out of battery in our phone. One
day at the Intersection they had an outlet right in
the front row next to the stage. We had security
plug our phone.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
Oh and they're so good about it too. That's awesome.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
Shout out to the Intersection this morning.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
That is so cool.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Thanks for the call, Nicky.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
You two.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Okay, somebody on the TikTok live stream, I'm not gonna
say who it is, but they said, I charged my
phone at a random house outside.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
Like you walk up to the side of the house
and just plugged in. Could you imagine could you imagine
a seeing somebody do that, but being the other end
of that and getting caught?

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Like what do you even say?

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Everybody has like a doorball camera these days. Somebody sit there,
There's no way you don't get caught.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
Good morning, Welcome to the ninety three Morning Show. What's
your name and where you're from? All right, Todd, where's
the strangest place you charged your phone?

Speaker 4 (10:54):
So during Killing the Zoos, like Ribfest and all that,
during the festival behind well.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
Not behind, I guess, kind of almost out front.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
They had a bunch of extension chords and people were
plugging in, you know, cooking off of them and everything else,
and I'm like down to five percent, and I'm like,
screw it. I just plugged in right in front of
all the cooks and right there and stood there and.

Speaker 3 (11:16):
They're all looking at me like, uh, should you be
my mind?

Speaker 5 (11:20):
Back here?

Speaker 4 (11:20):
This is like staff only, and I'm like just charging
my phone. Sorry, guys, if.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
I'd if I've learned anything by doing this. Now, if
you just do it and pretend like you're supposed to
be doing it, like you plug in an act like
that's your job to be doing that, nobody questions it,
nobody says a word.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
Oh, You're just like hey, nope, I'm part of the staff,
and walked away, went.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
Right back in the crowd.
