Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, Killing Nash. It's tomorrow's show. Thank God, it'll be
Friday on the Morning Rush.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I think it's gonna be Friday everywhere. Well, I mean,
I mean, we'd like to just make it for us,
and so it's an exclusive Morning Rush offer.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
That'd be great. What is every day of every day's
Friday on them?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
We could pull that off, brother, we'd have a big
time national radio show. We'd be like Bobby Bones out here.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Bobby, we could never reach Bobby Bones level.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
All right, well, we're going to give it a shot
tomorrow with your choice, Willy or Billy? Whose tickets do
you want? We got the summer of live promotion. This
is four thousand different concerts have been reduced to just
thirty dollars now. These tickets only last for a week.
Two of those shows are happening at the Firefly Distillery
in North Charleston. One would be Willie Nelson playing on Sunday,
(00:51):
May twenty fourth. The other is Billy Currington with special
guests Kip Moore Thursday, September tenth. You get to pick
your show. Is it Willy or Billy? The word of
the day for what you're talking about crepescular. Crepescular.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Oh wait a minute, this is diffused.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Diffuse like a.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
You know, the the bathroom windows made out of the
clear blocks. Oh, this is diffused.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
That's an interesting analogy that you're using crepescular means of
or like twilight. Oh okay, so the fact that you
were using the block windows is kind of accurate, but
not exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
But that's okay. So that's why we give you the definition.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Oh yeah, and that's the one we want. We don't
want you to look it up. No again, whatever Miriam said,
we don't give a rip.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Let me quote one of our greatest politicians right now.
We don't give a damn, but marry him what he says.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
So with that in mind, you now have the answer
of or like twilight. That's the answer. You can be
reminded of it on the Morning Rust blog. In fact,
we'd actually prefer you to go there, just because we
want the ticks or the clicks for the ticks. But
you get to choose tomorrow morning six thirty ish. Never before, no,
always choose wisely.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Right after six thirty, we'll give you the number again.
I'll tell which number to be when we go to
the phones, and you have to be already know the definition,
which is plainly written there on the morning rush block.
But then we're going to ask you Willie or Billy
and you can need to have an answer.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
What a great opportunity for somebody that's fun to get
to pick your concert tomorrow. The other thing is picking
is according to the Solid Security name numbers, we're getting
some weird baby names again, so unexpected baby named stats.
According to the Social Security Administration, Detta Nova has now
(03:01):
surpassed the name Grace for girls Nova Yeah. Nova five
and forty four girls last year were named Nova Wow,
making that the thirty ninth most popular name in America.
Interesting Nova yes.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
The fastest rising name for girls is Iceland. One word
icce e l y n n Iceland.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Are these names that off some kind of new television
show or something not that I'm aware of. Okay, Iceland
sounds like it came off of one of those shows,
one of those movies for kids.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'm sure that whoever these people are with their names,
they're gonna have to go through their life when they say,
and who are you? I'm Iceland like the country. No,
not like the country. There's no d at the end
of it. But that does sound like Iceland. It does Iceland.
And the name Thomas is traditionally one of the most
(04:00):
popular boys names out there. I got one of those,
but this year it's been jumped by Maverick.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Shut the hell up, Maverick. That's great is.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
That this year's thirty six the most popular boy's name
is Reacher on the list.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I had to stop off and watch a little bit
of Reacher last night. I was skinning through the Guide
and it was on. I had to watch it. Oh really, yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Classic. I don't know what's going on in New Mexico,
but there's apparently I'm assuming because New Mexico, for those
of you who don't know, dominated by witchcraft and the
home of area fifty one four, isn't it fifty four?
I don't know. Yeah, we're getting the UFO updates coming soon.
(04:46):
Yeah the uh. But New Mexico one of the most
witchcraft dominated states, I think, probably the most witchcraft.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
I would have thought it would have been Louisiana, just
based on New Orleans.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Very popular there as well. But there must be some
sort of Bible movement happening in New Mexico. Some of
the most popular names this year, Liam, Noah, and suddenly Ezekiel.
Ezekiel is the third most popular boy's name in New
Mexico this year. Don't know what's going on there.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Something's happening there.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
And also, Genesis is now a very popular girl's name,
not just in New Mexico but throughout the country. Genesis
has jumped the name Sophie Genesis.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
I would have never thought about naming a child Genesis.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
And I don't have the audacity to name my child
what the Oney seven and thirty four parents did to
for their son audacity. No, No, Messiah, what is your name?
I am Messiah? Messiah. Seven hundred and thirty four boys
(05:59):
got that name year.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Making that was in New Mexico as well.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
No, that's just in the country two hundred and three.
The two hundred and third most popular name in the
country for the years and now, falling behind Messiah is Patrick.
So Patrick not as popular as a boy's name as Messiah,
which again that is a that's quite a burden.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Anybody knows Messiah, I don't know one.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I've never met. I don't know other than Jesus that
the Messiah that I'm aware of. But I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
I don't know how that Genesis.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, I don't know how that became in the beginning
was Genesis. And it's also, i'm told, the fine automobile.
So you got that going.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Much more popular than Exodus numbers.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I'm wondering if you know what was the name, like,
what was it? Portia was like a popular stripper's name.
There was some there was like there was a wave
of like like sports cars that were becoming like strip
his names for a while. I'm wondering if Genesis will
make that list.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
That is good. Maybe it was inspired by the car.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yeah, that's how did you pick your kid's name? That's
always an interesting story when people you know, finally reveal it.
Like for me, I didn't have and my son still
thinks that it was because I liked Michael Jordan, which
I did, but it had nothing to do with it.
I just liked the sound of it, Okay, No no
(07:32):
backstory to it other than I just think that name
sounds cool. My what my his mother wanted to name
him Bernard, and that almost led to a fistfight almost
because I was like, hell, no, no, and if your
name Bernard.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
I apologize but just don't like that name.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
And she liked it because I guess in Russian or
something it meant little bear, and she thought that was adorable.
It'll be my little bear. He will also get his
ass kicked for the rest of his life.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Hi, Bernard, he could be known as Bernie.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Wasn't Wasn't? Was Bernard the name of the elf in
uh the Santa Claus? I think it was, now that
I just thought about that, I think Bernard is the
chief Elf. Yes, I believe that is the case as well,
he should be. Yes, with a name like Bernard, that
is the perfect name for the chief elf as well.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
He should.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Now who am I quoting Morgan.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Walling quote always come as well? You should, sir?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
You know I'm I am gen X. Gen X Apparently
the people who give the crap the least about their
eye health.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I health. Yes, I'm not sure I ever considered my
eye health. What should I be considering? Maybe? I'm uh,
maybe I'm a brother kindred here.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Well, the average gen xer has spent more than a
decade since they're last visit to the optometrist.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Oh, okay, I get my eyes jacked every year. Yeah,
baby boomers are good at it and now you get
a certain age like me. Of course, it's brought on
by the fact I've been wearing these headphones cranked up
too loud for the past fifty years of my life.
That to go for a here, I need to go
in for another hearing test. I'm sure it's that will
be good news.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
I always say, why bother?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Why bother?
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Yeah, well exactly, it's like if you if you broke
a toe, and yeah, I know I'm gonna limp. What
now what? But yeah? The also gen X leads the way.
Not only do they not check their eyes, they also
do the most damage to their eyes because they spend,
on average, the most time in front of a screen,
(09:42):
which is fifty two hours a week for Gen X
baby boomers spend forty eight hours a week.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
What are those glasses called blue lip blockerslock? Blue blockers?
Do you ever wear? You have a pair of blue blockers?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah, I don't believe in them. I think they're full
of craft. Oh, I don't think that they do anything.
I've tried him on them.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
David is blue bloggers because he sits in front of
a screen all day.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, I don't think they do anything. My wife has
him to and her eyes suck. Oh. Gen Z is
spending less time in front of screens than the gen xers,
which is crazy to me. But for most of the
gen xers it's related to work. For gen Z, most
(10:29):
of it is entertainment. So baby boomers also now have
segued into the it's for entertainment more so than it's
for work.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Gamers.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Gamers are baby boomers gamers now too? I mean, these
are your these are your fellow sophisticates. Are they the
people you went to high school? Have they segued into gaming?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Not to my knowledge? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
What are they looking at?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
I think that the phone games is a pathway drug.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Okay, it's like the marijuana. Next thing the marijuana.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
But all Sally does a lot of phone games, but
she has not transitioned to big screens.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
What is the Asian game that's taken over?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Now?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
You mentioned it to me the other day when I
brought it up to you. It's like marrajion.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Oh yeah, I don't know anything about this game. It's
a card game. I don't know anything about this game
or even how to pronounce it correctly. I just know
that one of Sally's best friends plays this like religiously
every Wednesday, like five, like the New Bridge Club.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
I mentioned that one of our fellow clients has a
wife who's taking classes on this the game Mayrajian or
whatever it is. And I mentioned that to my wife
last night. She said, oh, that's a very popular thing
to do. And she said, right now, they're offering for
ten think about this, ten thousand dollars. You have the
(11:56):
opportunity to go to I think it's Mount Pleasant for
a week and play Maragon for a week and you'll
be there with you'll have you'll have games in the morning,
classes after lunch on how to get better, and then
you'll play more games at night. And so for a
week for ten thousand dollars. Wow, people are signing up
(12:19):
to go play Maragon for a week or whatever the
hell it's called. It's it's like hotter than pickleball. Yes, yes,
is pickleball already over? Have we already lost pickleball?
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Because this friend also played pickleball?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Okay, so pickleball and I know it social with an M,
so like a M and P kind of gal back
to just wrap up that study, by the way, So
they basically that study was talking about screen time, but
more importantly I health. I did not realize this that
(12:53):
the GLP one medications one of the potential side effects
is total blindness and permanent blindness.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I know that's one of the things listed in the commercial.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Only thirteen percent of the people on GLP ones knew that.
That seems like something You should let him know up
front that like two percent of these people are going
permanently blind.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Should permanently blind?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Yeah, now it's worth it, I guess if you're want
to be hot looking to those to those of us
who can still see. But that is a legit, like
what they're going blind.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
I you know, I get it with a GOP one thing,
and I'm not. There are a lot of things that
I have to overcome in my life that are not
great habits, but over eating is not one of them.
But I was looking at a guy yesterday. He was
coming out of a restaurant. Now, this dude, because I
specifically I felt bad about it. I specifically set my
(13:56):
car to wait and see which car is he going
to try to get into.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
He's too bad for a regular car, way too big.
Did he have a truck?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
No, he did not. He got it As a matter
of fact, he got it to the back seat of
what appear to be like a suva by the size
of the Forerunner. It wasn't. It wasn't a huge vehicle.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Did the vehicle grunt?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Yes, it did. Oh see, that's a great example of
why we need GOP once this. Obviously he cannot just
stop eating too much or wrong foods or whatever his
choices are. Yeah, he has to have this help.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
And trust me, Uh, I was big. I was over
three hundred puns at one point. When you're that big,
it's not fun. He knows he's in trouble, and he's
not sleeping well, and he's I'm sure it's tiring, probably
to walk from the restaurant to the car. He's exhausted
all the time he's hearts racing. I mean, it's there's
(14:57):
just no fun in being morbidly obese. But like you said,
there's an addiction, and it's an easily served addiction. I mean,
it's not like I'm a heroin act.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
I can't imagine how tough it actually is because just
like on the restricted Calorica intake that I'm in right now,
I haven't had a piece of bread in like four.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Weeks that seems insane as well, or a potato.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
So just no starches, and my sugar intake has been
greatly reduced. I'm sure there's some sugar still in my
coffee creamer. I just use it, but my sugar intake
has been greatly reduced. I haven't had a soft drink.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Now, do you feel better? Like is it like, eh,
you've pushed through and you're like, actually, I kind of
feel better. I do.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
I don't want to. And you know, he was this
person was coming out of a Mexican restaurant. I have
not had a chip, a Mexican chip, and they're everywhere.
Maybe it's because I haven't had one, but everywhere I
turned now they're gigantic bags of chips.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
But do you want one?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Now I look at it, they go gosh, I remember
eating the but no, not really.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah, that's the interesting thing, like like fast food. I
did have a McDonald's burger or something like maybe a
month ago, and that was probably the first time in
over a year that I'd had like fast food drive
through type of thing. Yeah, and I was like that
was a total mistake, that this thing hurts. I don't
want it. I'd like to get rid of it from
(16:23):
my system.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
You know how much I do miss French fries. I
miss French fries, I said.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I don't miss them, miss them. I don't miss the
French fries.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
But I understand why that would be something that a goop,
because I was the gop once. I thought, okay, that's
not that's not healthy, but compared to what and this
is why the administration has come down like a have
now and it's been kind of a change in attitudes
for a lot of reasons having to do with the
Maha movement. But I certainly understand how statistically speaking, just
(16:51):
for the average American of you certainly better to lose
a lot of that weight than would be to worry
about the stipulation or the other possibilities, even the blindness,
because stat physically speaking, you're still much better off.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
And you can go blind from being obese because it
leads the diabetes, which the elevated blood sugar affects all vessels,
but particularly in the eyes, which are you know, the
most gentle ones. And I had a coworker once years ago,
I shouldn't say a co worker, he was actually my boss,
and he put on a massive amount of weight, like
one hundred plus pounds, and he said what he was
(17:26):
doing was his wife demanded that he stopped smoking. Demanded it,
and so he said, the only way I could convince
myself to do it was every time I wanted a cigarette,
I'd have something sweet to eat. Oh well instead, And
so he put on like a hundred pounds. He quit smoking,
(17:49):
and his doctor told him, you should go back to
smoking because it's an actual appetite suppressant and you would
be You have a lower chance of lung cancer than
you do just a heart attack right now. Wow, So
go back to smoking a pack of day, take that
weight off.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Wow, But I get it. Been trying to think weight
off and I have lost a lot of weight.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
But you don't need to lose any weight though. Really,
I mean, would you say one seventy six or something?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Sedat I got, I had it collecting around my waist,
had to get rid of it. Sally said that she
wanted me to get rid of that guy. Now my
girlfriend said the same thing, and I thought, okay, yeah,
now I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Two or more. Gathering your man anyway, So we got
all those stories and then finally Jonathan on the Morning
Rush blog. We're hearing from a young lady who typically
I would think this would go the other way, So
this one kind of threw me a little bit for
a loop. Yep, she has got a boyfriend where things
are going great. I guess things are nice. And I
(18:53):
think she said they've been together for almost a year,
so again, they've already got through the rough patches or whatever.
Here we go. He keeps bringing up this thing. He's
upset that I haven't deleted photos of my ex boyfriend
off social media. And I get it that he doesn't
want them to pop up in memories or something like that,
but it's also was a huge part of my life.
(19:16):
I don't want to erase my early twenties just to
make him feel more comfortable. I enjoyed a lot of
that time with my ex boyfriend and the places we went,
the vacations we took, and all of that, and so
I know that it bugs him, but I don't think
I'm ready to just delete all that and not have
it around. So am I the jerk or is he
the jerk?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Now? Any totally, We're going to hear a lot of
different reasons. Absolutely, Sam, you're a particular part of the
argument or not, but only average should this? Should those
photos not? Why? Why would you react to that?
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Why would I, as the boyfriend react to her? I'm threatened.
You haven't let go that. You you haven't moved on.
You take the time to figure out a way to
photo shop them out of the.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Photos, especially now, I mean technology is readily Yeah, you
went to the Grand Canyon. That's great, Get rid of him.
You could put a herse right here, a little real
it look real. It looked like you're hugging on the loose.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
You're a disney World Replace him with Mickey Mouse. Mickey
Mouse is actually posing for the photo with you at Disneyland.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Is available.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Yeah, you went to Paris.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Then you still already know I know.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
And every time she looks at that photo, she's thinking of.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Him, exactly. You got to think about Mickey Mouse now.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
So now she's got to just delete that part of
her life from twenty one to twenty five didn't exist.
Some of my best years.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Chime in on that one tomorrow. Hey, what's going on
in your neighborhood? We should be talking about what you
got going on? How you liking this cold weather in
the rain, so.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I don't like the cold weather. I wish it was raining.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
What's up?

the overnights.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
That'd be great. What is every day of every day's
Friday on them?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
We could pull that off, brother, we'd have a big
time national radio show. We'd be like Bobby Bones out here.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Bobby, we could never reach Bobby Bones level.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
All right, well, we're going to give it a shot
tomorrow with your choice, Willy or Billy? Whose tickets do
you want? We got the summer of live promotion. This
is four thousand different concerts have been reduced to just
thirty dollars now. These tickets only last for a week.

in North Charleston. One would be Willie Nelson playing on Sunday,
(00:51):
May twenty fourth. The other is Billy Currington with special
guests Kip Moore Thursday, September tenth. You get to pick
your show. Is it Willy or Billy? The word of
the day for what you're talking about crepescular. Crepescular.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Oh wait a minute, this is diffused.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Diffuse like a.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
You know, the the bathroom windows made out of the
clear blocks. Oh, this is diffused.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
That's an interesting analogy that you're using crepescular means of
or like twilight. Oh okay, so the fact that you
were using the block windows is kind of accurate, but
not exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
But that's okay. So that's why we give you the definition.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Oh yeah, and that's the one we want. We don't
want you to look it up. No again, whatever Miriam said,
we don't give a rip.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Let me quote one of our greatest politicians right now.
We don't give a damn, but marry him what he says.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
So with that in mind, you now have the answer
of or like twilight. That's the answer. You can be
reminded of it on the Morning Rust blog. In fact,
we'd actually prefer you to go there, just because we
want the ticks or the clicks for the ticks. But
you get to choose tomorrow morning six thirty ish. Never before, no,
always choose wisely.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Right after six thirty, we'll give you the number again.
I'll tell which number to be when we go to
the phones, and you have to be already know the definition,
which is plainly written there on the morning rush block.
But then we're going to ask you Willie or Billy
and you can need to have an answer.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
What a great opportunity for somebody that's fun to get
to pick your concert tomorrow. The other thing is picking
is according to the Solid Security name numbers, we're getting
some weird baby names again, so unexpected baby named stats.
According to the Social Security Administration, Detta Nova has now
(03:01):
surpassed the name Grace for girls Nova Yeah. Nova five
and forty four girls last year were named Nova Wow,
making that the thirty ninth most popular name in America.
Interesting Nova yes.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
The fastest rising name for girls is Iceland. One word
icce e l y n n Iceland.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Are these names that off some kind of new television
show or something not that I'm aware of. Okay, Iceland
sounds like it came off of one of those shows,
one of those movies for kids.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'm sure that whoever these people are with their names,
they're gonna have to go through their life when they say,
and who are you? I'm Iceland like the country. No,
not like the country. There's no d at the end
of it. But that does sound like Iceland. It does Iceland.
And the name Thomas is traditionally one of the most
(04:00):
popular boys names out there. I got one of those,
but this year it's been jumped by Maverick.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Shut the hell up, Maverick. That's great is.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
That this year's thirty six the most popular boy's name
is Reacher on the list.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I had to stop off and watch a little bit
of Reacher last night. I was skinning through the Guide
and it was on. I had to watch it. Oh really, yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Classic. I don't know what's going on in New Mexico,
but there's apparently I'm assuming because New Mexico, for those
of you who don't know, dominated by witchcraft and the
home of area fifty one four, isn't it fifty four?
I don't know. Yeah, we're getting the UFO updates coming soon.
(04:46):
Yeah the uh. But New Mexico one of the most
witchcraft dominated states, I think, probably the most witchcraft.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
I would have thought it would have been Louisiana, just
based on New Orleans.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Very popular there as well. But there must be some
sort of Bible movement happening in New Mexico. Some of
the most popular names this year, Liam, Noah, and suddenly Ezekiel.
Ezekiel is the third most popular boy's name in New
Mexico this year. Don't know what's going on there.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Something's happening there.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
And also, Genesis is now a very popular girl's name,
not just in New Mexico but throughout the country. Genesis
has jumped the name Sophie Genesis.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
I would have never thought about naming a child Genesis.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
And I don't have the audacity to name my child
what the Oney seven and thirty four parents did to
for their son audacity. No, No, Messiah, what is your name?
I am Messiah? Messiah. Seven hundred and thirty four boys
(05:59):
got that name year.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Making that was in New Mexico as well.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
No, that's just in the country two hundred and three.
The two hundred and third most popular name in the
country for the years and now, falling behind Messiah is Patrick.
So Patrick not as popular as a boy's name as Messiah,
which again that is a that's quite a burden.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Anybody knows Messiah, I don't know one.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
I've never met. I don't know other than Jesus that
the Messiah that I'm aware of. But I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
I don't know how that Genesis.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, I don't know how that became in the beginning
was Genesis. And it's also, i'm told, the fine automobile.
So you got that going.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Much more popular than Exodus numbers.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
I'm wondering if you know what was the name, like,
what was it? Portia was like a popular stripper's name.
There was some there was like there was a wave
of like like sports cars that were becoming like strip
his names for a while. I'm wondering if Genesis will
make that list.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
That is good. Maybe it was inspired by the car.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Yeah, that's how did you pick your kid's name? That's
always an interesting story when people you know, finally reveal it.
Like for me, I didn't have and my son still
thinks that it was because I liked Michael Jordan, which
I did, but it had nothing to do with it.
I just liked the sound of it, Okay, No no
(07:32):
backstory to it other than I just think that name
sounds cool. My what my his mother wanted to name
him Bernard, and that almost led to a fistfight almost
because I was like, hell, no, no, and if your
name Bernard.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
I apologize but just don't like that name.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
And she liked it because I guess in Russian or
something it meant little bear, and she thought that was adorable.
It'll be my little bear. He will also get his
ass kicked for the rest of his life.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Hi, Bernard, he could be known as Bernie.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Wasn't Wasn't? Was Bernard the name of the elf in
uh the Santa Claus? I think it was, now that
I just thought about that, I think Bernard is the
chief Elf. Yes, I believe that is the case as well,
he should be. Yes, with a name like Bernard, that
is the perfect name for the chief elf as well.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
He should.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Now who am I quoting Morgan.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Walling quote always come as well? You should, sir?
Speaker 2 (08:36):
You know I'm I am gen X. Gen X Apparently
the people who give the crap the least about their
eye health.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
I health. Yes, I'm not sure I ever considered my
eye health. What should I be considering? Maybe? I'm uh,
maybe I'm a brother kindred here.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Well, the average gen xer has spent more than a
decade since they're last visit to the optometrist.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
Oh, okay, I get my eyes jacked every year. Yeah,
baby boomers are good at it and now you get
a certain age like me. Of course, it's brought on
by the fact I've been wearing these headphones cranked up
too loud for the past fifty years of my life.
That to go for a here, I need to go
in for another hearing test. I'm sure it's that will
be good news.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
I always say, why bother?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Why bother?
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Yeah, well exactly, it's like if you if you broke
a toe, and yeah, I know I'm gonna limp. What
now what? But yeah? The also gen X leads the way.
Not only do they not check their eyes, they also
do the most damage to their eyes because they spend,
on average, the most time in front of a screen,
(09:42):
which is fifty two hours a week for Gen X
baby boomers spend forty eight hours a week.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
What are those glasses called blue lip blockerslock? Blue blockers?
Do you ever wear? You have a pair of blue blockers?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah, I don't believe in them. I think they're full
of craft. Oh, I don't think that they do anything.
I've tried him on them.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
David is blue bloggers because he sits in front of
a screen all day.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, I don't think they do anything. My wife has
him to and her eyes suck. Oh. Gen Z is
spending less time in front of screens than the gen xers,
which is crazy to me. But for most of the
gen xers it's related to work. For gen Z, most
(10:29):
of it is entertainment. So baby boomers also now have
segued into the it's for entertainment more so than it's
for work.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Gamers.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Gamers are baby boomers gamers now too? I mean, these
are your these are your fellow sophisticates. Are they the
people you went to high school? Have they segued into gaming?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Not to my knowledge? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
What are they looking at?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
I think that the phone games is a pathway drug.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Okay, it's like the marijuana. Next thing the marijuana.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
But all Sally does a lot of phone games, but
she has not transitioned to big screens.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
What is the Asian game that's taken over?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Now?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
You mentioned it to me the other day when I
brought it up to you. It's like marrajion.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Oh yeah, I don't know anything about this game. It's
a card game. I don't know anything about this game
or even how to pronounce it correctly. I just know
that one of Sally's best friends plays this like religiously
every Wednesday, like five, like the New Bridge Club.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
I mentioned that one of our fellow clients has a
wife who's taking classes on this the game Mayrajian or
whatever it is. And I mentioned that to my wife
last night. She said, oh, that's a very popular thing
to do. And she said, right now, they're offering for
ten think about this, ten thousand dollars. You have the
(11:56):
opportunity to go to I think it's Mount Pleasant for
a week and play Maragon for a week and you'll
be there with you'll have you'll have games in the morning,
classes after lunch on how to get better, and then
you'll play more games at night. And so for a
week for ten thousand dollars. Wow, people are signing up
(12:19):
to go play Maragon for a week or whatever the
hell it's called. It's it's like hotter than pickleball. Yes, yes,
is pickleball already over? Have we already lost pickleball?
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Because this friend also played pickleball?
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Okay, so pickleball and I know it social with an M,
so like a M and P kind of gal back
to just wrap up that study, by the way, So
they basically that study was talking about screen time, but
more importantly I health. I did not realize this that
(12:53):
the GLP one medications one of the potential side effects
is total blindness and permanent blindness.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
I know that's one of the things listed in the commercial.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Only thirteen percent of the people on GLP ones knew that.
That seems like something You should let him know up
front that like two percent of these people are going
permanently blind.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Should permanently blind?
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Yeah, now it's worth it, I guess if you're want
to be hot looking to those to those of us
who can still see. But that is a legit, like
what they're going blind.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
I you know, I get it with a GOP one thing,
and I'm not. There are a lot of things that
I have to overcome in my life that are not
great habits, but over eating is not one of them.
But I was looking at a guy yesterday. He was
coming out of a restaurant. Now, this dude, because I
specifically I felt bad about it. I specifically set my
(13:56):
car to wait and see which car is he going
to try to get into.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
He's too bad for a regular car, way too big.
Did he have a truck?
Speaker 1 (14:04):
No, he did not. He got it As a matter
of fact, he got it to the back seat of
what appear to be like a suva by the size
of the Forerunner. It wasn't. It wasn't a huge vehicle.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Did the vehicle grunt?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Yes, it did. Oh see, that's a great example of
why we need GOP once this. Obviously he cannot just
stop eating too much or wrong foods or whatever his
choices are. Yeah, he has to have this help.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
And trust me, Uh, I was big. I was over
three hundred puns at one point. When you're that big,
it's not fun. He knows he's in trouble, and he's
not sleeping well, and he's I'm sure it's tiring, probably
to walk from the restaurant to the car. He's exhausted
all the time he's hearts racing. I mean, it's there's
(14:57):
just no fun in being morbidly obese. But like you said,
there's an addiction, and it's an easily served addiction. I mean,
it's not like I'm a heroin act.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
I can't imagine how tough it actually is because just
like on the restricted Calorica intake that I'm in right now,
I haven't had a piece of bread in like four.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Weeks that seems insane as well, or a potato.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
So just no starches, and my sugar intake has been
greatly reduced. I'm sure there's some sugar still in my
coffee creamer. I just use it, but my sugar intake
has been greatly reduced. I haven't had a soft drink.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Now, do you feel better? Like is it like, eh,
you've pushed through and you're like, actually, I kind of
feel better. I do.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
I don't want to. And you know, he was this
person was coming out of a Mexican restaurant. I have
not had a chip, a Mexican chip, and they're everywhere.
Maybe it's because I haven't had one, but everywhere I
turned now they're gigantic bags of chips.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
But do you want one?
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Now I look at it, they go gosh, I remember
eating the but no, not really.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah, that's the interesting thing, like like fast food. I
did have a McDonald's burger or something like maybe a
month ago, and that was probably the first time in
over a year that I'd had like fast food drive
through type of thing. Yeah, and I was like that
was a total mistake, that this thing hurts. I don't
want it. I'd like to get rid of it from
(16:23):
my system.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
You know how much I do miss French fries. I
miss French fries, I said.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I don't miss them, miss them. I don't miss the
French fries.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
But I understand why that would be something that a goop,
because I was the gop once. I thought, okay, that's
not that's not healthy, but compared to what and this
is why the administration has come down like a have
now and it's been kind of a change in attitudes
for a lot of reasons having to do with the
Maha movement. But I certainly understand how statistically speaking, just
(16:51):
for the average American of you certainly better to lose
a lot of that weight than would be to worry
about the stipulation or the other possibilities, even the blindness,
because stat physically speaking, you're still much better off.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
And you can go blind from being obese because it
leads the diabetes, which the elevated blood sugar affects all vessels,
but particularly in the eyes, which are you know, the
most gentle ones. And I had a coworker once years ago,
I shouldn't say a co worker, he was actually my boss,
and he put on a massive amount of weight, like
one hundred plus pounds, and he said what he was
(17:26):
doing was his wife demanded that he stopped smoking. Demanded it,
and so he said, the only way I could convince
myself to do it was every time I wanted a cigarette,
I'd have something sweet to eat. Oh well instead, And
so he put on like a hundred pounds. He quit smoking,
(17:49):
and his doctor told him, you should go back to
smoking because it's an actual appetite suppressant and you would
be You have a lower chance of lung cancer than
you do just a heart attack right now. Wow, So
go back to smoking a pack of day, take that
weight off.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Wow, But I get it. Been trying to think weight
off and I have lost a lot of weight.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
But you don't need to lose any weight though. Really,
I mean, would you say one seventy six or something?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Sedat I got, I had it collecting around my waist,
had to get rid of it. Sally said that she
wanted me to get rid of that guy. Now my
girlfriend said the same thing, and I thought, okay, yeah,
now I'm gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Two or more. Gathering your man anyway, So we got
all those stories and then finally Jonathan on the Morning
Rush blog. We're hearing from a young lady who typically
I would think this would go the other way, So
this one kind of threw me a little bit for
a loop. Yep, she has got a boyfriend where things
are going great. I guess things are nice. And I
(18:53):
think she said they've been together for almost a year,
so again, they've already got through the rough patches or whatever.
Here we go. He keeps bringing up this thing. He's
upset that I haven't deleted photos of my ex boyfriend
off social media. And I get it that he doesn't
want them to pop up in memories or something like that,
but it's also was a huge part of my life.
(19:16):
I don't want to erase my early twenties just to
make him feel more comfortable. I enjoyed a lot of
that time with my ex boyfriend and the places we went,
the vacations we took, and all of that, and so
I know that it bugs him, but I don't think
I'm ready to just delete all that and not have
it around. So am I the jerk or is he
the jerk?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Now? Any totally, We're going to hear a lot of
different reasons. Absolutely, Sam, you're a particular part of the
argument or not, but only average should this? Should those
photos not? Why? Why would you react to that?
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Why would I, as the boyfriend react to her? I'm threatened.
You haven't let go that. You you haven't moved on.
You take the time to figure out a way to
photo shop them out of the.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Photos, especially now, I mean technology is readily Yeah, you
went to the Grand Canyon. That's great, Get rid of him.
You could put a herse right here, a little real
it look real. It looked like you're hugging on the loose.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
You're a disney World Replace him with Mickey Mouse. Mickey
Mouse is actually posing for the photo with you at Disneyland.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Is available.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Yeah, you went to Paris.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Then you still already know I know.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
And every time she looks at that photo, she's thinking of.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Him, exactly. You got to think about Mickey Mouse now.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
So now she's got to just delete that part of
her life from twenty one to twenty five didn't exist.
Some of my best years.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
