Speaker 3 (00:37):
A holiday spirit showtime.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Oh happy chocolate covered anything day because everything tastes better
covered in chocolates. And I think the semi year it's
magically calarie free and one of the miracles of Christmas. Well,
I remember a couple few days ago and it was
I felt like at least thirty four degrees below zero outside.
We have thirty four that's our current temperature wind advisory

(01:04):

When was it going to be forty tomorrow?

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Forty four to day forty tomorrow and then really?

Speaker 4 (01:39):
Okay four right now? Okay, Yeah, it was a beautiful drive.
And when is this wind going to pick up? Because
it was just a nice, pleasant trip up to down
to Grand four.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
I'm going to guess when the sun comes up.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
Oh, that's going to do it. Okay, that should do it.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Okay, So yeah, I last I checked, I think it
was a sustained fifteen mile an hour wind.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
So sustained fifteen yes, okay, not sustained fifty because I know,
I know, okay.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
That'll happen because Tuesday's Trevor's garbage day and every other
Tuesday it's the recycle wednsday are out too, so off
to go home and retrieve all of.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
Those Oh yeah, but don't you just love that?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
But hey, anyway, at this time of year, we can
get Now it's thirty five degrees, we can get plus
forty degrees. We'll take it. Got to come with four
thousand miles a week.

Speaker 4 (02:24):
It has to, it has to. That's it. You know
in North Dakota, Minnesota that if you have a nice day,
something's coming behind it. Right, there's always a big bud,
there's a butt, Yeah, there's yeah. Yeah. Well, welcome to
the party, pal. Oh hey, thanks, buddy. I just read
something today. I just read it. I don't this might
not be the Yeah, that's the time. It's the Tuesday, buddy.

(02:47):
Do you know I love tangent Tuesdays. When do you
think it's too old? And I just read this from
the American Heart Association. When do you think it's too
old to shovel? When are you too old to shovel? Snow?

Speaker 2 (02:59):
I mean, each person's different, everyone's built differently, different aches
and pains. But if I had to throw a number
out there.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
Yeah, sixty five, sixty five day, Yeah, I did bad, right, No,
forty five that's what the American Heart Association says. Forty
five you're done. That means you shouldn't do it. You shouldn't.
That means you're too old to shovel now. I'm not
there yet, but I'm going to. You know, I it's
a bittersweet story for me because I'm thinking that's gonna

(03:28):
be a great excuse for me not to have to
do this.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
This statement coming from my buddy who put off shoveling
for multiple winters and it's been on top of it
this year, and yeah, you can suddenly pump the brakes
because you're getting statistic and you just want to be safe.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
In my late twenties early thirties, when I was just like, yeah,
this is great, I didn't shovel because I was just
you know, I didn't want to right. So now as
I'm older, an adult, I'm thinking it's time to be
an adult here and shovel now apparently almost too old
to do it.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
You just need to do it smart, a little bit
at a time. There's days where it's light snow, oh,
there's days where it's headway.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
Yeah yeah, well yeah, the heavy. But I just couldn't believe.
You don't expect to see forty five. You're basically done.
So in STORGI come into her association.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
With positive news that you're going to retire from shoveling,
just to be safe, just to be so you're taking
care of the number one yourself.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
I think that's how I'm going to spin that. Yeah,
good for me, I mean I think so. But but
as much as I'm excited to use that as an excuse,
I'm a little bit put off by that. You know,
in no article do I want to see? Forty five
is over? Anything's over at forty five? You know what
I'm saying, Frank, I'm going to make feel better. Hekay,
please do joaqum that you are healthier than the average individual.

(04:41):
Oh you think so, you're above the bar? Okay you think, well.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
Yeah, I'm creeping up on that age. But I give
me a shovel. I'm feeling good. I'm okay, I'm above
average at a certain category. We are going to defy
the American Heart Association. If it's the last thing I do.
Good luck do you?

Speaker 4 (05:02):
Okay? Okay, I just thought i'd share that because there's
gonna be there's a lot of forty five year ols
out there. Well, I guess I'm out. I don't worry
about that this weekend.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
And you meant a lot of significant others, very unhappy ones.
These guys will be dropping these excuses.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
That's true. That's true. I hope they blame you. Hopefully
they forget r J said it and blame you. That's
my home or a team buddy. You take blame, I
take play. Okay, okay, TV, the entertainment world and whatever.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Here's what you missed on Excel ninety three.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
Remember the snack bugles?

Speaker 4 (05:39):
What do I mean? Remember them? As if they're not
around anymore? I enjoyed there's still from time to time, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Bugles and sometimes, but I know they're still around.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
They're they're good. Pick the little baby bugle up. Every
has to put them on their fingers. I mean, even
if you're you.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
And you put one in your mouth that.

Speaker 4 (05:57):
One I haven't. I haven't. I haven't done that. I
haven't done that. But if they were actually shaped like
real bugles, I would absolutely do that. But yeah, I
still put them on my fingers like their nails.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Well this might be devatuating for you too.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
Oh no, what what by doing? Now?

Speaker 2 (06:14):
This guy's life problem kind of hilarious. He discovered his
old school snack is no longer the way he remembers it.
As we know, things like to evolve for the worst
exactly the food department. Yeah yeah, even though it still
pictured that way in the bag. We're talking about bugles
that used to be shaped like little horns.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
Uh huh.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
The fact that he calls them hats for fingers is
just too funny too.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
I bought this bag of bugles for the first time
in like fifteen years, and I bought them because I
wanted to put my finger. None of them have an
opening for the hat.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
None.

Speaker 4 (06:49):
Is this a dorito bugles? What? What?

Speaker 3 (06:53):
What?

Speaker 2 (06:54):
Customer a devastated to find bugles don't fit on his
fingers anymore?

Speaker 4 (06:58):
There's no opening at all, or his are too large.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
I want to believe No, that's what I thought at first, too,
is going to be his fingers were too large, But
it sounds like they were just like basically flat, or
I want to believe they were just a crushed bag.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
Well, then they can't be called bugles anymore. Okay, have
you researched this?

Speaker 2 (07:15):
No? Not at all?

Speaker 4 (07:16):
Okay, Well I don't, of course, not, of course not.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
I'm just hoping it was a crushed bag, so they
really should still be I'm sure they're made with weaker materials,
they break easier now something, But I'm hoping that's the story.
I didn't want to research it and be devastated like that.
Guys on my mind, I had a in your mind,
but it's like, I bet that's what happened.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Okay, take the safeway out.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
I respect that you can research it if you want.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Well, I think I'm kind of like you. I don't.
Maybe it's better not to.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Don't want to be disappointed, not yet.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
I just learned that I can't shovel past the age
of forty five today, Strob, what do you think I
don't need any more bad news.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
That's a good news.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
Bad news though, Yeah, yeah, that's true.

Speaker 2 (07:53):

odd but thoughtful gift for my buddy here momentarily, Okay,
I'll whip it on momentarily yet, yeah, I don't want
to wait fairly soon. Don't wait for what for me
to whip the gift out?

Speaker 4 (10:31):
You know I don't want to wait.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
I didn't think so.

Speaker 4 (10:33):
Yeah, but I just was wondering how soon momentarily is?
That's all Ron says.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
Now. The oddist gift ever received had to be a
singing fish mounted on a plaque. You think it's just decorative,
but no press of button and it bounces out classics.
Imagine my surprise when I walked past it one night
and it started suddenly singing and serenading me with don't worry,
be happy.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
I remember that the fish, right, that's what you said. Yeah,
billy bass.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Or whateverly bass, billy bass.

Speaker 4 (10:59):
Yeah, that's I'm just looking at the picture that Teresa
posted on your page. There the Danny de Vito picture,
Danny DeVito pillow right. It's one of those sequence things
where you can rub it one direction. There's a picture
also Danny DeVito's beautiful mug shows up. That's a good one.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
That's fantastic. Yeah, that'd be great. I can see the
weirdest thing, right, I've seen old days.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
There you go. I could see you won in one
of those.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
That's odd. Yeah, it is odd, creepy, maybe even tried tough.
Where did that come from? I'd like to hear the
backstory on that one. Yeah, this is a significant other gift?
Is this a holiday party gift? The best gift I
ever got was an actual star in the sky. My
friend named a star after me. At first I thought
they were joking, like, oh, you bought me a star?

(11:43):
Did you pick it up at the grocery store? But
they showed me the certificate. Now, I tell everyone I'm
out of this world.

Speaker 4 (11:50):
Literally, oh yeah, yeah, I don't know about those. It
sounds good on paper. And then you're like, well, is
anybody ever it's not like the world's going to go
well that's uh yeah, Joe.

Speaker 2 (12:04):
I thought about it the other way around too, like
alien invasion. If it's because this one guy named like
McCluskey from Mars, someone bought him his Star Wars Earth, right, and.

Speaker 4 (12:18):
They're just coming down here just to see you know,
their pertificate, right, yeah? Because he technically would I suppose.
I'm not familiar with intergalactic law, but I believe that
that that's how that goes.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
I would hold up an intergalactic court, sure would, sure
wintergalactic jury. What is the oddest gift that's a twofolded
question today? Was the pastor otis gift you've ever received
or given? So I was north of the border of
this past weekend again, okay, family with my uncle was
in town from the East coast, so that was kind

(12:50):
of the reason why I got there on Friday and
hung out for the rest of the weekend, and we
did have a little conversation. I did my little per
usual grocery.

Speaker 4 (12:59):
What do we get our j was that the conversation.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
We're going to get my buddy? It is Christmas month. Yeah,
speaking of odd gifts, I've been hyping up the bread.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
So you're gonna have to take this home and do
whatever people do with bread and get back to me
on it.

Speaker 4 (13:31):
Okay, Canadian ryber. I thought ryebread was blue or black
or whatever. This looks like normal.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Well, there's different. You can get the multi colored ones.
I mean, this is kind of the basic loaf.

Speaker 4 (13:44):
I got to tell you, I'm kind of excited for this.
Thanks Trevor. It does smell really good, Thanks Trevor.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
If only we had some butter or some spread.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
Yeah, you need to have a stroke. You need to
have a spread. Yeah, but without a spread, without a shmear,
you know what I'm saying. That plain bread, No, that
would be weird.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
That would be weirder than giving your buddy.

Speaker 4 (14:02):
No, no, no, no, this is a great gift for ever.
I'm so excited I will have for you. I have
to post a picture of this.

Speaker 2 (14:08):

said post right that post I did? That's weird. I
guess it's getting to me already.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
Trending test egg trending on XL ninety three.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
Trending Newness around the Holidays today.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
Yes, today, Trevor, we are talking about I just lost
my uh my thing, majigger here Trevor slacks. Yeah, I
lost my slacks, Trevor. That's what we're going to talk
about today on trending. I put the thing, I put
the thing aside, and then I lost it. Okay, that
people are obsessed with seeing these tree nudes, right, and
I like you, I first saw this headline, I'm like,

(17:46):
oh no, this is U n FSW Right.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Are we going to have to choose the second most
trending story too.

Speaker 4 (17:54):
Exactly so this naked Christmas treat trend growing going viral
is basically what it sounds like, a without any ornaments.
Oh I don't think that's exactly what it initially sounded
like to me. But no decorations, no tinsel, and sometimes
even without lights. Okay. Common look is a bear tree
sparsely lit with just softwhite lights, just light ones. It's

(18:17):
a modern minimalist thing which has been picked up by
various influencers, celebrities including Julian Moore and Michelle Fibers, all
those holiday weirdose. Of course they would like this. People
who like to like it argue that it's a less
is more thing where you can enjoy the feeling and
clean look of a tree without the clutter the overstimulation

(18:38):
of the clashing colors. Okay, it's supposed to be elegant
and peaceful.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
I don't think any of the celebrities are putting up
their own.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
And they aren't even writing out their own tree, or
maybe they were. Maybe that's what it came from. One
of them decided to try and you know, exert that
energy to put the tree up there. Like I just
don't have it in me to put the lights on.
I'll just take a picture of this and just call
it a trend.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Right, So in this summer, everyone will take those decorations
they didn't put up the year and be putting them
on their outside trees in July.

Speaker 4 (19:08):
There you go, yeah, exactly. So, however, others say it
looks unfinished, I would say unfinished and joyless is what
they say. Yeah, a Christmas tree looks terrible without lights.
You put it up, you know, it's so pretty when
the lights are on. You shut the lights off, You're like,
what is that dark? You know, looking blob of green
over there in the corner.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
There's an eight foot monster in the corner.

Speaker 4 (19:30):
Yeah, but what is the deal with minimalist Trevor? Everything
is minimalist in streamline these days, and everything just looks
so ugly.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
That's the fancy word for lazy.

Speaker 4 (19:41):
For lazy. Okay, that's it too. Yeah, look at buildings, man,
buildings used to look pretty cool, the old classic downtown
buildings and stuff are old Victorian houses. Now everything's just
a square the giant window, but just an ugly box.
And this is that trend. Minimalist, no lights, no decorations,
no frill. Pretty soon it'll be just a action painted triangle,

(20:01):
wouldn't I woulden't triangle on a stick that.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
I mean, that's even lazier than my option was going
to be. Bring the tree home from the tree lot.
Just put it in the corner with the rope still
around here. You go, just lay it, there's my tree.
Don't even say that out loud. Hollywood is listening, Trevor,
and they'll do that. They always are, They're always listening.

Speaker 4 (20:21):
Yeah, that'll be the true That will be the next
trend is lay your tree in the corner, or you know,
just don't even pull it out of the box. You
just set the box down. Yeah, more trends, more trend
Nice man, we're getting this TikTok and social media thing
figured out. I think I know what to do. Now,
just do something ridiculous, post it and somebody be like,
this is the trend.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
We're going to have dozens of followers in no time.
But no time. It wouldn't take that long.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
Bet you didn't know random facts coming at you now,

I Also, it's funny you mentioned that he is closer
to the death of Thomas Jefferson in eighteen twenty six.
His birth is closer to the death of Thomas Jefferson
in eighteen twenty six than it is to now.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Was that just a file of perspectives?

Speaker 4 (21:30):
That was all that was? Hey, that was a pile
of perspectives. Oh yeah, I thought you'd enjoy that. Football fact.
Bench didn't know.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
Since the NFL Draft began, percentage of the number one
picks that have been quarterbacks? What would you guess? Two
sports guys say eighty forty one forty one percent, forty
one pick he's been quarterbacks. That's that's thirty seven out
of ninety. It's been even more popular in recent years,
with twenty one of the past twenty eight number one

(21:59):
picks being quarterbacks. Okay, okay, we sounded like two knowledgeable
sports teams there kind of except for the fact that
I was forty percent off less than fifty good point,
couldn't be worse. Last half full? All right, Beach didn't
know pretzels eighty percent and the US are made in Pennsylvania.

(22:20):
I don't know if that's that fascinating. But there's a
fun city interesting fact. I didn't know Pennsylvania. Does it
say that in our license plate Home of the Pretzels.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
I don't know. I've never seen a Pennsylvania license.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
Well, I start with the P. I guess that makes
perfect sense. Pennsylvania, Bania.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
We are the Pennsylvania Pretzels. Huh Pretze Pennsylvania. It's called
Pennsylvania as of right right now? Okay, so clever.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
Trevor oh Man, I love me some good laziness. Pop tarts,
betch didn't know. Their sales went up every year from
nineteen eighty two to twenty fourteen, and it's possible they're
still going up. Twenty Fourteen's just the last time Keleeg's
announced any pop tart sales stats.

Speaker 4 (23:01):
We're done with the stats.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
In twenty twenty three, collegs became Kelenova and just recently
it was acquired by Mars Inc. But they haven't had
any new pop tart stats in a decade. Okay, Betch
didn't know TV lying to us movies filling us nonsense.
How long it would take to knock someone out by
holding a rag soaked with chloroform under their nose? Oh,
I think it's about a minute. Five minutes, movies two seconds.

(23:28):
I guess they're just better at it. Some chloroform we
can't get our hands on here. When you just walk
into chloroform world.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
In the mall, it's probably a good thing that I
think about five minutes. I don't think you want anything
on the market there that would done.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
People be using that all the time. So good news
to wrap up. Betch didn't know today, now you know.

Speaker 3 (23:49):
Let me put it this way. You're Tuesday morning. More
on a war, Yes, more on my Nexcel ninety three.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
More on a War Today, brought to us by fast
Lane Unlocks, Locked Out, Life's too short to wait, called
Fastening Unlocks Today Today, going to New Zealand today for
a little tale. New Zealand famously has more sheep than people,
so I guess you used what she got for a story.

(24:19):
Woman with a long list of offenses. Recently stole a
lego lamb from a grocery store in New Zealand, then
brandished it as a weapon.

Speaker 4 (24:27):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Thirty year old Nama Johnson walked out with over two
hundred and fifty dollars with a stuff in her cards,
including a leg of lamb. An employee tried to stop her,
but she kept going. She loaded on the groceries onto
a city bus but couldn't or wouldn't pay the fare.
She demanded someone else pay it for her. She eventually
got into it with the transport officer. She grabbed the

(24:50):
leg of lamb and raised it over her head like
she was about to club them with it.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
Oh, I've heard these frozen lambs are deadly.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
That sounds like that would be horrible. Thank you. She
did put the leg of lamb down and left the bus,
but she stole the driver's cash box on her way out,
with one hundred and twenty five dollars in it. This
all happened in April, but she was just in court Thursday,
and turns out she'd stolen all sorts of stuff over
the past year. She pled guilty to twenty six different charges.

(25:19):
One of those crimes involved an adult toy she stole
from an adult store two weeks after the legal Lamb thingked.
The store said it was a Playboy branded toy worth
two hundred and seventy dollars.

Speaker 4 (25:31):
Oh wow.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
Now, despite the long listed charges, the judge went easy
on her. He gave her six months on house arrest,
but said it's her last chance. Next time, she's going
straight to jail. Wow, lady stole a leg of lamb
and used it as a weapon, and she will sheepishly
re sheepishly. Tuesday Morning, More on a War.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Very good, Trevor. That was terrible. That was good.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
That was my ending line. Was terrible.

Speaker 4 (25:58):
Yeah, good story. Different love their lamb over there, apparently.
Have you ever had lamb, Trevor, porky lamb chops my lambs.
Yeah it's been it's been some time. I'm overdue for
some lamb. Yeah, you probably Are's make some lamb next
time you cutt You got to know microwave, dude. You
need to know what you're doing for that lamb stuff.

(26:18):
I had some South African friends that would make they
knew what they were doing. That was good. But every
time I've tried failed okay, here fail unless you know
somebody from New Zealand, Australia or South Africa. I would
even try.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
We have a toaster in a microwave in the break crow.
Not gonna make lamb.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
I'm not gonna cut it. No, no, no, no, all right,
we'll try. Thank you, try too hard?

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Thank you? Yeah, if something's hard to do, it's not
worth doing, Trevor. That is often the case. Keep answering
our question of the day too. We're down to single
digit countdown to Christmas morning. What's the best or oddest
gift you've ever received or given?

Speaker 4 (26:53):
I gave someone brain flows before brain flows.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
Yeah, it's brain flows.

Speaker 4 (26:58):
It is a string that is run through a bendy
straw of some sort of little bendy rubber straw, and
then you put it it's clear, and then you put
it behind your head and pretend you're floss in your brain. Yeah,
Spencer's I know this is like nineteen eighty six, so

(27:19):
probably not, but no, not eighty six, nineteen ninety. I
gave it to my best friend Kurt.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
Guys are still buddies.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
They cared for it, and he said that's one of
his favorite gifts. He's ever gotten. Excellent, Yeah, brain flaws.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Let's give my brother a jar of nothing for his birthday,
literally a jar with a label that said nothing. He
always says he wants nothing whenever I asked what he'd
like for his birthday, so I thought, why not? Look
at his face? Priceless. It became a legendary story in
my family.

Speaker 4 (27:44):
Ah jar of nothing, and he deserved it.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
I mean, you're creative about it to make a little
sign for it. That's fine, unless, of course, he gave
you a here's a two thousand dollars set of golf clubs.
Then you'd feel.

Speaker 4 (27:58):
Brain Then you would feel a little bit bad. Yeah, funny.
I don't know. I'm just trying to think. I don't
think anybody's given Maybe one of the oddest gifts I've
ever received was a loaf of bread this morning from Trevity.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
That might actually happen less than an hour a gap,
and that.

Speaker 4 (28:10):
Might be one of the strangest things.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
See, that's not necessarily bad, No, absolutely not.

Speaker 4 (28:14):
It doesn't have to be something you didn't like, because
I gotta say, this is a great gift.

Speaker 2 (28:17):
Didn't expect it, Yeah, didn't even see it coming. Stephanie
says a couple of years back, the best gift I
ever got was a laundry basket with new towels, cleaning
supplies to a few other things I needed for adult takes.

Speaker 4 (28:30):
See that that is a great present. It was very thoughtful.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
That's funny how adulting gifts somehow get us, sometimes get
us very excited. Gotta be careful with some of them,
like the old way back. One of my first memories,
my dad bought my mom some some new pots and pans,
and she cried.

Speaker 4 (28:51):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
I think there were tears of joy though.

Speaker 4 (28:53):
I'm sure. I'm sure they got all up in the kitchen.
I'm sure they were. Yeah, yeah, I remember hearing stories
about that. I believe my dad I'd got my mother
a blender at one point. This is before I was born.
It's funny I was born then after this, But yeah,
I believe that there was like a blender and maybe
even a vacuum and to happen. And apparently those aren't.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Good ideas unless somebody says vacuum. You were right, right,
because sometimes sometimes you need one want one. And if
your wife or girlfriend does say that, I still I
wouldn't believe her. Know me too, that's a trap. Just
stay away from that. Don't do the vacuum. That good advice.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
Yeah, it's always a trap. Just basically everything they do
is a trap. Believe nothing. What do you think of that?
That's probably even the best advice. That's the best advice you'll.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
Hear if you want to stopped two sentences ago.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
If she's talking, she's trapping. You're welcome.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
That's why we don't have a couch in here. Guys
just gotta spew non sense over the microphone. Alright, let's
let's swip out some sign. It's here a festive topic,
peak season for constipation. Oh it is the season.

Speaker 4 (30:05):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
A lot of stuff we eat more of around the
holidays can leave you feeling backed up. There's a lot
of fiber and Christmas cookies and the booze and that
egg no can leave you dehydrated, which doesn't help either. Luckily,
science just figured out the top foods to add your
diet that can lead to less straining in the bathroom.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
Okay, Trevor timely on top of them.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
Researchers at King College in London found these are the
three foods that are the best ones to eat if
you're backed up first one of classic, but you might
not guess the other two.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
I would say prune. Yep, that's right there. I've never
had a prune.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
I've had prune juice.

Speaker 4 (30:40):
I have not had either, but it was well, they're
just dried plums, aren't they.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Kind of a bigger smaller than a plum, but bigger
than a raisin.

Speaker 4 (30:48):
Well wait a take in here, Max. A prune is
just a plum, isn't it dried up? And then the
raisin is a dried up grape?

Speaker 2 (30:56):
So yeah, you're right?

Speaker 4 (30:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (30:57):
Am I?

Speaker 2 (30:57):
Right? Am? I?

Speaker 4 (30:58):
Actually right?

Speaker 2 (30:58):
I think you are?

Speaker 4 (30:59):
You ever had cow prunes?

Speaker 3 (31:00):
No?

Speaker 2 (31:01):
That's jerky, then I yess I okay. Prunes hin fiber
also have something called serbitol. It's using certain types of
over the counterlaxatives. Eight to ten prunes per day can
get things moving again a lot.

Speaker 4 (31:15):
That is, who's going to eat eight? I don't even
think great grandparents anywhere are eating that many.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
Pers I don't think they. Most people have eaten that
in all life too exactly. Kiwi, according to science, one
of the top three foods to eat. They have a
specific enzyme that breaks down proteins and helps with digestion
two or three a day for one month can help
keep your regular.

Speaker 4 (31:35):
Okay for one month. Does sound like this is going
to help you, like in an emergency scenario.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
You have a Kiwi in your pocket at all times,
and rye bread is on the line.

Speaker 4 (31:46):
And I was just going to say so, Trevor, were
you looking out for my digestive health today? Trevor gifted
me this morning, for those who missed it, a loaf
of natural bakery, health baked Canadian rye bread. And this
came from I'm guessing Canada, right, Yes? Yeah? Is it
traditional cut? Cute? Today? I can't read nothing. What does

(32:10):
that say? Trevor's reading French? Do you see the cut?

Speaker 2 (32:14):
It's shiny? Oh? Okay, here take it. Yeah, spend a
lot of time with this bread today for traditionality. Traditionally
cut Okay, See that's what I thought. Traditionally cut but
rye bread best option it comes to bread. Studies have
found it can even work better than some laxatives. I
just noticed, when you're here and I haven't said it,
I've found a good way to say it out loud

(32:36):
that I don't see us the bathroom. Ever, when you're
in the building here, so you're going to quiet. You
were to be the silent solution.

Speaker 4 (32:47):
What an interesting morning?

Speaker 3 (32:48):
This is?

Speaker 2 (32:49):
Sure is it's interesting? Is a good word?

Speaker 4 (32:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
Coffee another option that can get things moving because it
stimulates the muscles in your coal and just don't drink
too much or it can leave you behydrated. Cups to
day Max is what they say interesting. Some fine science
right there. Top three. Food seat, though, feeling backed up,
Brune's Kiwi and Rye brother sounds like a delicious sandwich.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
Doesn't it, though. I'll take a prune and Kiwi sandwich.
Please unrye, please on rye.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Yeah, excel mighty three.

Speaker 4 (33:19):
Bye, good morning.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
I caller number nine. Hey, Hey, who is this?

Speaker 5 (33:27):

Speaker 2 (33:29):
Stephanie, what's the best artist gift you ever received or given?

Speaker 5 (33:33):
The best gut that I've ever received is going to
be a laundry basket with new towels, cleaning supplies and
other adulting stuff. I feel like it was very thoughtful
and I loved it.

Speaker 4 (33:46):
Beautiful. That's the kind of thing you don't think that
you would like when you're fourteen, But.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
How much you cry if you're fourteen, you open that up.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
Right, but you would have cried if those first adult years,
you're like, that's pretty much appreciated. Yeah, I get it.

Speaker 5 (34:00):
Oh yeah, when you're thirty, that's the best thing ever.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
Stuff you need and then you also don't have to
go out.

I don't know any guests, Stephanie. I know that the
latter is Hobbes, but what's his first name?

Speaker 4 (36:28):

Speaker 2 (36:29):
All right, Stephanie, Hey, that very nice. Let's go three
for three. Are you familiar with the Kenosha Kickers? They
were a big polka band from this city. They're a
big poke band in this city. This is from the
movie Home Alone. Do you know the city?

Speaker 4 (36:47):
Do you know the name of the city, New York City?

Speaker 6 (36:52):

Wrong.

driving and John can he is like, hey, have you
ever heard of us?

Speaker 2 (37:02):
You know?

Poke? We were very big in what city?

Speaker 5 (37:06):
Chicago?

Speaker 3 (37:07):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (37:07):
It starts with a shot, It starts with a shoe.

Speaker 2 (37:10):

Speaker 3 (37:33):
That help?

Speaker 6 (37:33):

and I hope so. Well. We've got tickets to Wake
Up for Good for you at River Cinema and we're
going to get your little gift card to Bangkok. Can
you tell us my station sprouts of your dinner and
the it's a connection.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
Three tough for one more thing on Xcel ninety three
one more term fun more fun more.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
It's December, so it's the end of year list time.

Speaker 4 (38:16):
I love this time of year, I really do. I
love wrap ups and reviews and things like that. And
a couple of weeks ago we were talking about I
think it was the Oxford Dictionaries Ward of the Year,
which was rage bait. Right. Well, this time we're going
to talk about Miriam Webster's Dictionary and their word of
the year is slop.

Speaker 2 (38:34):
Slop.

Speaker 4 (38:34):
That isn't like pig slop. We're talking ai slop now.
It's I think we can appreciate it. Yeah, that is
starting to get a better picture here now. So they
defined it as digital content of low quality that is
produced usually in quantity by means of artificial intelligence. AI
content got so cheap and easy this year. It is
now unavoidable, from cookie cutter writing full to uh writing,

(38:58):
you know, full of botched fast to that fun video
you know of a kiddy on a sled or something
like that. Right, AI slop is everywhere, And they say
they picked it because it managed to sum up the
problem in just four letters and gave us a fun
way to mock AI slomp. Okay, And here's a quote

(39:20):
the words. The word sends a little message to AI
when it comes to replacing human creativity. Sometimes you don't
seem too super intelligent. What do you think the AI.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
Answers that you get anytime you google anything? Now, sometimes
it just seems like really interesting. And I think those
are the times where it's just completely man. You know
that it's wrong, Yeah, because if you've ever caught it
in a lie before, yeah, then it just sounds ridiculously dumb.

Speaker 4 (39:47):
Well, and I'll tell you where it's just I don't
know if it's outright line, but you'll see the AI answer,
and then after that you'll see you Because I don't know,
I use the Brave app because there's no ads. It's
the greatest saying. Chrome can go straight to Shiel, which
is I think hebre for health anyway, So anyway, because

(40:09):
I wanted it's a family show, right, I didn't want
to say the other one. So anyway, I got a
Brave app. So underneath the Brave app or at the top,
it'll it'll have the AI answer, and then right under
that it will be Reddit, right, and then you'll see
in Reddit, I could just see the preview of Reddit,
like some dudes answer which AI has used to answer
your question. So that's where it's getting. It's getting all

(40:29):
of this crap from garbage that we've we've fed into
it too, but it's our fault just as much, and
we're all to blame. We're all to blame. So shut
it down. N okay, good advice. Yeah, what do you
think slop slop? Hey, there's no AI slop. There's not
even I slop on this show.

Speaker 2 (40:48):
No, there is very rare, barely any I.

Speaker 4 (40:51):
Yeah, exactly. There's no I in team and there's no
I in Trevor and RJ.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Wow, I didn't need to sit. Yeah, buddy, mind blown
Wow nine sleeps till People's Christmas. And also, don't forget
