The Morning Mix Podcast: Gettin' Fleeced

In this episode of The Morning Mix, Matt Harris and Liz Luda dive into a heated debate about the difference between a coat and a jacket. Liz's husband thinks a fleece is a suitable substitute for a coat, but Matt disagrees, leading to a humorous argument about the importance of having a real winter coat on a chilly 17-degree day. They also discuss the latest pop culture news, including the passing of legendary director Rob Reiner and his wife, and the best Christmas songs for a holiday workout playlist.

If you want to be a celebrity and today's your birthday,
you probably should go for it.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Because Pickens were slim this morning.

There is not that many famous people celebrating. And you
know that that's true because I'm starting off with Camilla Luddington,
who is forty two. Yeah, okay, Doctor Joe Wilson on
Gray's Anatomy, No, you can talk now that he's probably
not septic, so he's going to be fine, although his
white self count is elevated, so I should probably keep

(00:40):
an eye on that. In fact, I will keep an
eye on that. So go to the pit trying not
to kill anybody. And that's us some famousness there, all right,
All right, now slightly more famous Adrian or not Adrian,

He wasn't the writer now like one of.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
The biggest shows at the time.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
But it's still associated with it. You just like he
has done good work, was my point.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
Yes, yes, that's a better option next time if you
want to play some sound.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
One of those things, though, is like you go back
and you like watch these things and you're like, oh,
in my memory, this was so much better.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
They were so witty, you know, they in fact were not.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
And then celebrating today is done Johnson who was seventy six,
he was Miami Vice. And then when I was younger,
my bedtime was nine pm, except on Fridays, I was
allowed to stay up until ten pm to watch Nash Bridges.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
And this was just sound in my childhood. Oh yeah,
I should remember had a yellow car.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
Actually it changed from episode to episode. I've seen every
episode of this show multiple times. And then when I
was in college, they started replaying it on TVs, and uh,
you know, also one of those shows in your memory that.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Was so much better.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
I think when you go back and watch it, you're like,
those one liners were.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
Well the bar keeps raising for TV in movies in general,
so it's like when you go back, it's like, oh, yeah,
the things we settled for for so long.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Yeah yeah, yeah, well that was one of them.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
I love that show.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
I was calling that a classic anyway. Nash Bridges, I
love big shows.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Like I was like an elementary school. I was like
favorite shows Nash Bridges, Walker, Texas, Rager, I can get that,
and Home Improvement because all three of them allowed me
to stay up past my bedtime and watch. And then

Speaker 3 (04:12):
I can't take it. I'm done.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
I Like, I woke up this morning in a bad
mood and it's just because it was cold.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
That's all it is.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
I'm just cold spiraling.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
Now. Yes, it's just set off a whole day and it's.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Not pulled inside. It's not like you're gonna an outside job.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
I don't have an outside job, which makes me a brat.
I get that. But like I usually have those little
hot hand things that people take hunting or whatever. I
usually have those, like in my shoes and in my pockets,
and I didn't have any, and I just wasn't prepared today.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
Just winy wine wine.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Yeah, I am gonna wine. I am I'm entitled to
a wine every now and then.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Yeah, I would love a nice blass of wine right now,
but that's not happening.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
But your wine is.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
That's all right. Just you're allergic to the cold or something.
I am not, really though. I mean our people are Actually.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Was when I was a kid, I used to get hives.
I like grew it, but now I like just complain. Okay,
So that's I don't know if Benadryl is gonna help
with that, though.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
That's pretty exciting for you. Uh, does your kid have
school the rest of this week?

Speaker 7 (05:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:17):
He does well this week.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
And full week and then he's on holiday break.

Speaker 4 (05:21):
So just this week.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah, done, And I'm ecstatic.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
I could tell No, I really am, I really am.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
I got one of those life size it's like a
giant cardboard house that you can color.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
Oh, looks like a gingerbread house. Yeah. And so you
just put it up in the.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Living room and you watch holiday movies and you just
randomly color as you go.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
It's much more wholesome than my family. My kids would
be like my coloring and with you and watching it.
I guess when they were really young. But by the
time your kid's nine, they were maybe they'd watch Elf.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
Maybe you probably could watch ELF.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
I still could do Elf with my other kid, but
other than that, tough cell to watch, like a Frosty
or something.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
So there's two Diary of a Wimpy kids. That's okay,
they're both Christmas or holiday and yeah, ok so we've
watched this.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah that's good. And that's you're watching like the old school.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
Uh he won't.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Yeah, yeah, he won't.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
I even try to Shrek the Halls and that was
too old for him.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
Was weird?

Speaker 4 (06:22):
Yeah it is? That was my kid.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah, so I thought you're watching like Field sitting there
watching the old classics.

Speaker 4 (06:26):
Nothing.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
He will watch the.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
Charlie Brown one, but I don't have Apple Bus.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
So that was out, and he'll like Home Alone. He doesn't.
He doesn't like because it's too older.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
I think he thinks it's too violent. He's like, why
would you do wow?

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Because they're bad guys.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
He's like very logical while he's watching it. He's just like,
this doesn't make sense. Why doesn't he ask for help?
Like that's a great question about a different times. That's
what he should have done.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
A different time.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
The Morning Mixed Matt Harris, Live Luda and te Jays
here computer to shut down. That's okay, everybody, This is
going to be great when you get to it. I
believe it's one of the world's dumbest criminals.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Last minute entry.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Wilmington, Delaware guy got arrested last week after called the
cops and told them, hey, I stole a car. The
owner reported it missing a day earlier. They told police
they were letting their Hyundai Sonata warm up in front.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
Of their place and when they came back, it was gone.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Right.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
The cops didn't know it until they got another call
the next day from a twenty one year old Kane Baxter,
who says I took the car. But here's why he called.
He said, I stole this car and then where I
parked it and got towed.

Speaker 4 (07:44):
But I got some of my own personal belongings I
need out of this car.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
No, so he wanted his stuff back.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
I thought maybe he had a guilty conscience he was confessing,
or so.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
He's just an idiot. They tracked him down. They eventually
own the car nearby tow lot. Belongis were still in that. Uh,
and you know, maybe I'll get him back after he
faces his felony theft of promotor vehicle charge.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
I mean possibly pen that it would be worth reaching
out like that.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
I know, why don't they mention it? I don't.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
I just there's something obviously disturbed about that Feller. And
there's a lawyer in the news because she's sue in
the i r S demanding that people's pets count as
legal dependents.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Oh wow, you know, okay, I will say this.

Speaker 3 (08:33):
I get I get that a pet and a child like,
I'm there, right, but my dog has cost me more,
probably in the last year than I think my kid has.
So i'm your by argument.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
You can buy your separate your health insurance for dogs.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
Right now, for pre existing I know, I know, she says.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
There eight year old golden retriever has no independent income
really besides expl leave with her and has annual expenses
exceeding five grand. Yeah, that satisfies the IRS intent of dependency,
except for the part about being human. Currently, pets are
considered property about the arras not eligible for human dependent

(09:14):
tax benefits. There's probably nothing going to come of this,
but she is saying that it's discrimination to treat tax
payers differently based on whether they're dependents are human or animal.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
No, sorry, I mean that that is taking it to
quite the level. But honestly, if I could declare my
dog as a dependent, I think I would. I'm going
to be honest.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Anything right now would be real helpful.

Speaker 4 (09:38):
That was the old Wiener dog.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
She got surgery on Thursday's.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
Coming up on Thursday.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
This Thursday.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
Yeah, okay, well, good luck.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
I know that you took her around and she stayed
in the car with your husband.

Speaker 4 (09:49):
Yeah, you got your haircut.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
Yeah, sitting outside of the hair place with a dog.
Wells listening there? How many hours?

Speaker 3 (09:57):
Oh it's only like fifty minutes.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
So sometimes people had we would go to there and
during for hours. Oh that's long enough.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
Yeah, yeah, I think I'm out on that.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
And while the dye sits on my hair, my kid
gets his haircut.

Speaker 6 (10:10):
Thanks for starting your day with The Morning, Miss.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
It's The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz Luda.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
You know, here's your latest pop update.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Actually just absolutely horrific, horrific news. Legendary director Rob Reiner
and his wife Michelle passed away yesterday, found dead in
their home in Los Angeles in an apparent homicide. Rob
was seventy eight, his wife was seventy. Rob and his
wife report Lee suffered quote lacerations consistent with a knight.

(10:38):
Ongoing investigation sources say they were murdered by their thirty
two year old son, Nick, Nick has had a history
of homelessness and drug addiction. Rob and Michelle also share
another son, Jake and her daughter romy Orrami and Robobson
adopted daughter Tracy.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
My first marriage to Penny Marshall.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
He began his career as Steve Martin's writing partner on
Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. In nineteen sixty eight, he joined
All in the Family as Archie Bunker's liberal son in
law Michael Meathead and Stimmock, and he directed This Is
Spinal Tap, which kicked off his legendary career of directing
stand By Me, The Princess Bride, When Harry met Sally, Misery,

(11:19):
Few Good Men, American President, Pucket Lists, and The Spinal
Tap two, the nd continues, which just hit streaming this weekend.
And so there are all kinds of reactions from all
the people across Hollywood and politics about their sadness. And
I believe Billy Crystal lived right next door, and so
there was reports of him being one of the first

(11:41):
people to get over there, which it has to be horrifying.

Speaker 4 (11:44):
Yeah, so that's it.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
Rob Reiner and wife Michelle found dead yesterday in.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Their La home.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
All right, swinging to another topic. Yeah, hard to make
us say, way, but we got a little difficult.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
All Lindsay Lohan is going to voice Maggie Simpson on
this Sunday's episode, and that's a big deal because Maggie
Simpson doesn't really talk. Sometimes they'll do episodes in the
future and like the whole joke is that she'll have
laryngitis or she doesn't have a voice, but she has
had a voice.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
A couple times over the history of the show.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
And Lindsay Lohan is joining some really great company on
this because Elizabeth Taylor has been her voice.

Speaker 4 (12:22):
Oh oh right, I forgot about that.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Yeah, Carol Caine, James Earl Jones, which I could be incorrect,
but I believe that is from one of the Treehouse
of Horror episodes, and then Jody Foster and now Lindsay Lohan.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
So I think that's really cool. Good for Lindsay, that's
pretty good. She had to be excited. I would imagine
when you get that call.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, I mean, think about it.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
She kind of went into hiding for a while. Then
she came back with her holiday movie was it last
year or the year before? That was like on Netflix?
And then she had The Freakier Friday. And they're already
talking about the Freakiest Friday where there's gonna be.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
A third one like together, which is great.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, what is not great is the Panthers lost, but
they're still tied for first, right, which, like you said, TJ.

Speaker 5 (13:10):
That's better than I would have ever expected in August.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
Yeah, ave been a few months ago. Yeah, a few
weeks ago.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
So they'll play.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
Tampa Bay coming up and that'll be important. But this
wind really hurts their chances. But they still got it.
They still got a shot. They still got a shot.
Just being in the conversation is cool.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
It's pretty amazing.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
And Justine mentioned as an honor.

Speaker 4 (13:31):
Yeah, yes, right uh.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
And then Dick Van Dyke's hundred.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
He's earned one hundred on Saturday, and I think this
is really cool. So we celebrated with his family. There
were tons of pictures and whatnot that were taken. It
was him his grandkids, which I thought his grandkids would
be older.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Candidly, he's turning a hundred, like, right, yeah, how old
is the grand kids? They all look like kids kids.

Speaker 8 (13:50):
Oh those are great grand children.

Speaker 4 (13:54):
I have got to look into this. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
But so happy birthday to him. I was getting nervous
because for the last three months people kept like like
like clickbaiting you on social media where it'd be like
Dick van Dyke big news, and then you'd like get
worried about him, and then it'd be like he's turning
a hundred, right, yeah, finally reached that milestone. And then
I also was impressed because he showed off his little
workouts that he does in the morning.

Speaker 4 (14:18):
Oh yeah, I saw that.

Speaker 3 (14:19):
Just stay limber and the hips and stuff, because hip
health is very important once you reached you know, three digits,
so yeah, triple digits.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
His first son was born in nineteen fifty.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Oh and then so they're older, so maybe they were
great kids and the kids they you are great or
great great great or something. Yeah, that looks like they
were all born in the fifties. Okay, so somebody was
leading you Australia, I think.

Speaker 3 (14:45):
I mean, oh no, I just saw the pictures of
him and it set him and his grandkids, and I
thought they would be great grandkids that would be older okay,
either seven grand kids or is great great He does.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Have a great grand creat too, Yes, yeah, you're one hundred.
I think there would be like several generations, right exactly,
especially first ones.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
We're in the fifties.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
Yeah, so let's say they started cranking out kids in
the seventies and eighties.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Yeah, okay, I just know. I was like, oh wow, but.

Speaker 4 (15:14):
He made one hundred. Good job there.

Speaker 6 (15:17):
The Morning Mix with Matt Harris and Liz Luda.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
We do it every day or every day this time,
and we have a new number, which you should know.
Nine eight zero three eight zero one zero zero nine.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Are you singing?

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Nine eight oh three eight oh one zero zero nine
nine eight three eight oh one zero zero nine.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
That's that's we're on it. We're on it.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Okay, think about his band's gonna make a song for us. Okay,
but that is the number. We want to chime in
on this problem.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
Which I'm gonna be honest. This week's made me laugh,
all right, mad Liz, am I the problem because I
return an empty castle, old dish. My neighbor dropped off
some home made goodies at my house last week. They
were delicious, and I thanked her when we returning her container.
My husband said I was acting like quote, a real
Yankee for sending it back empty. He said, I'm supposed

(16:14):
to bake something in the dish and then return it.
That doesn't feel right to me because I didn't ask
for the holiday goodies in the first place. I thanked her,
and that should be enough. Am I the problem?

Speaker 1 (16:25):
I've never heard of this in my life.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
That's because you're acting like a really.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Twenty five years i've met her. You're never supposed to
return an empty dish.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
I've never heard that in my entire life, and I've
and I have returned them, and no one ever said.
And I know if people have returned empty ones to
me and how they think about it.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
Yeah, I've always heard that, But I've also seen empty
dishes returns both ways.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
I wanted empty, to be honest with you, emptied and
cleaned you. Yeah, turned maybe something now I've got And
where does it end?

Speaker 3 (16:55):
Right? Because they make something for you, you make something
for them, and then that's where it ends supposed to be.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
I did this just because I don't expect anything or
want anything in return.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
Well, yeah, but you're still going to get talked about
because like the audacity of returning the empty container. Like
if I didn't expect anything to be returning the container,
I would have just bought one of those little foil
ones you can throw away.

Speaker 5 (17:15):
Right, that's the real move. That's is to make the
disposable pain.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah, sometimes you're just like make you like, oh, that's right,
I gotta make so and so something because of something,
and like I don't really want to run out, or
you're taking something into a part.

Speaker 4 (17:27):
How about taking no party?

Speaker 1 (17:28):
You have to do it? Then?

Speaker 2 (17:29):
What do you mean let's say I take a castrole
to a party? Yeah, oh, not like a let's take.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
It if you leave with your dish at the end
of the night.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Oh no, no, not always.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
No, Oh I left it behind because it's it's not
all gone and I'm leaving before everybody else.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Just get you.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
Just keep it, you guys, you know you've got a
big family or something. Just keep it, return it you
do it right. Yeah, I wouldn't take it necessarily, Oh
I would take it.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
But if I didn't, I guess I would assume when
it's returned, it should at least have us stofers in it.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
What about it?

Speaker 5 (17:57):
What about like you know, when someone passes away or
something you make them, are you expecting.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
Them to return?

Speaker 3 (18:04):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (18:05):
That's like that because that's.

Speaker 3 (18:07):
Messed up greeving you don't expect anything in return from
them in that moment. But if you give it to, say,
like a secondary person who gives it to them who
it comes through, then maybe that person could but they
don't have to separate. How about if it's uh so,
is it just that I know you're feeling attacked because
your neighbor gave you banana bread and you haven't.

Speaker 4 (18:30):
Bread like a container.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
It was you know, cardbirdy cardboard, And I haven't found
that banana boy around anywhere, so I still don't know
if I stole his banana bread or what? Uh the
the Is it just like if you're doing it as
a like a gift like a or is it like
if you're just contributing to a pot luck or something or.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
It's a holiday things? Yeah, like holidays or something.

Speaker 3 (19:00):
No, so it's more holiday were you in it? Like
if it's Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Fourth of July giving?

Speaker 2 (19:08):
Oh yeah, but I'm not going to break something over
to somebody for thanksgiving him.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
I no, I'm definitely not doing that.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
I mean, if you make some really good roles and
you give me, like, hey, I made some extra roles,
here's a pan of them, I'm not going to return
it empty.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
How about it?

Speaker 4 (19:21):
How about a ton of cookies?

Speaker 3 (19:23):
Yeah, that's fine.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
That changes it too.

Speaker 5 (19:26):
When you said I have these extra oh versus like
I made these cookies for you, just for you.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
Yeah, and somebody gives you cookies, hold on, you gotta yeah,
you gotta fill the cookie tin back up?

Speaker 5 (19:36):
Oh no way, no, no, wow. Yeah, I'm all for
being nice, but that is too nice.

Speaker 4 (19:45):
That's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
If I gave you, if I give you a popcorn thing,
don't you have to fill it back up with popcorn.

Speaker 3 (19:50):
I've never thought about it, but that would be delicious.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Cause I assume a cookie tin or a pocket that
is not transfer back right, The whole, the container and
everything is the gift.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
Yes, Oh, I thought you meant like, if somebody gives you,
like in the little tupperware, the little cookies, you fill
that back up.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
With No, no, and you don't even expect the tupperware to
be returned.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Oh well, then you don't get name baradever. You're getting
ziplocked best, right.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, a class casserole dish or whatever. I see that.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
But like, if you're just giving me a plastic container
for you don't get the thing back.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
If it's name brand, i'd better be.

Speaker 1 (20:30):
You know, Okay, what do you for?

Speaker 3 (20:32):
Top Aware?

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yeah you want to return that?

Speaker 5 (20:35):
Not you you got a gift in something else, because that's.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
The gift is the whole thing at that point, you're
not a topper Aware.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
No, right.

Speaker 3 (20:43):
Are you talking about like the little like the tiny ones,
like the ziplocky ones, or are you talking about like tupperware.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
A container for leftovers whatever you want to call it,
the tupperwar like the name brand, but like just a
container that you would put leftovers in, Like you know,
what do you call it, glad ware whatever?

Speaker 4 (21:00):
Anything?

Speaker 1 (21:00):
A plastic thing. You don't get that back?

Speaker 3 (21:03):
Yeah you do?

Speaker 1 (21:04):
No?

Speaker 3 (21:05):
No, well you're acting like a real Yankee. Nine.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
I want nothing back because I just give to give
Morning Mix one hundred pointnine to ninety nine point three.
Matt Harris lis Luna's quirky and looks at social media
fifteen hours a day, so you don't have to.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
And apparently we were supposed to be getting dressed up
for our kids holiday performances.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
I had no idea how dressed up.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
Well, so there's this lady who made a video who
was like, do we not dress up for our kids'
holiday performances anymore? I remember my parents getting so dressed up,
and I showed up at my kids thing and everybody
was wearing pajamas and sweatpants and acting like they just
rolled out of bed to show up. And I will
say that she has since taken the video down because

(21:49):
she got roasted more than chestnuts off or an open fire,
like my holiday job I.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
Just worked into there. That's a lot of mental focus anyway.
So she took it down because were like, what are
you talking about?

Speaker 3 (22:01):
What do you mean we're supposed to get dressed up
for our kids' holiday performance.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
I wouldn't say I've seen people dressed up sometimes, and yes,
I think there was a time when people but I'm thinking.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
It's not the ballet, like if it was not. I
think pajamas is.

Speaker 3 (22:15):
A little bit slacky holiday pajamas, and sometimes the line
is very blurred, especially with Grinch apparel.

Speaker 5 (22:22):
I feel like I would see my dad dress up
in like a button up shirt versus like a T shirt.
That's when I've been still jeans and yes, a button
up shirt like a collar, like, yeah, exactly, Yes, that's
what I feel like, But.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
That's how clothing was, Like, I don't think I stilled there.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
There's gotta be some effort. You're not going to Walmart,
you're going to the kids thing.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yes, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Yeah, I'm not saying a suit and tie or fancy
evening gown dressed.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Hey, you showed up for your kid to support them.
That's all that should matter. That is great.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
I mean, but if we're yeah, I mean, yes, of course,
it's all that matters.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
But I still think.

Speaker 5 (22:57):
The point of dressing up is that you're putting the
effort into it, making it something, to making it an event,
versus just like, hey, yeah, this is what I wore
to McDonald yesterday.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
Right now, you're going to like I'm going to the theater, right,
I mean, actually you can.

Speaker 5 (23:13):
It's not a suit and tie because you're at an
elementary school.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
Right right, But let's put a little effort in.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
I just don't I mean, yeah, put some effort in.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
I guess, like I think that's sweatpants pajama I think
that's fine.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
I mean, I don't want.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
To like, have you arrested or taken from your kids?
But I think that that's not I would think that.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
As it's it's okay.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
So if you it was just pajama bottoms. I'm not
here to put judgment on anybody else what.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
We do anybody again, but it's not the judgment kind
of like I don't like them and we'll never hang
out with them. But there's certain things in life, like
on an airplane I want I don't want a guy
in a tank top next to me with the flip flaps.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
He doesn't mean I hate the guy or anything.

Speaker 5 (24:01):
Here's rules you also are trying to like, are there's
an association with your kid there, Like you don't want
to give kids a reason to make fun of your kids.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
You know, parents are cool, They're not wearing something called slacks.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
I don't think that's how it works. Jeans are nice,
Jeans would be okay. I mean, oh jeans, No, you just.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
Don't like jeans, but okay, but whatever pair of pants
is what I'm saying, Like, I don't want to like if.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
You if you don't want to be pajama mo.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
One of the things that she pointed out to though,
was like leggings in a holiday sweatshirt.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
I think that's fine.

Speaker 4 (24:35):
Probably, yeah, yeah, that's probably fine.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
I mean it's not what an effort.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
Listen, it's for your kid. You're there, you're showing up,
and I believe that you're only supposed to get dressed
up for fancy events.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
And by that, I of course mean something like this.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
Oh TJ.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
Why didn't get the cue? Guys?

Speaker 1 (24:55):
There we go dressed up? Right?

Speaker 3 (25:00):
Yeah? I see. I'm not going to win the arguments
any argument made.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
Have you ever want to chime in? Get this number
in your brain nine to eight oh three, eight oh
one hundred and nine.

Speaker 4 (25:12):
It's the Morning Mix.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Morning Mix, My Harris, Liz Luda, a'd be grand there.
Why does the internet think your marriage is over?

Speaker 3 (25:21):
Because apparently you're supposed to wear your wedding ring all
the time. And I had no idea. So this all
started off. I saw a TikTok video. This lady was
mixing a ground of beef with her bare hands. She
was like making meat loaf, and she took her ring off,
and the comments section was filled with all these people
that were like, oh my gosh, you're never supposed to
take your wedding ring off. Blah blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Crazy.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
That seems disgusting and like you're harboring a lot of
bacteria in that ring. But whatever. So I ended up
making a video and I was like, I take off
my wedding ring as soon as I walk in the door,
when my bra comes off, my wedding ring comes off,
and my shoes. I don't wear my wedding ring around
the house. I don't do it for anything leisure. I
put it on and I leave it uncomfortable something. Yeah,

(26:02):
I don't know. I don't want to It's just it's there.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
I don't know, like I'll lose it, I'll drop it.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
I don't know. And my fingers they swell up and down.
I never know exactly how it's gonna fit. I can't
commit to that, and I'm afraid if I'm sitting on
the couch, I'll just start like fiddling with it and
then like lose it out. Yeah, if I go out
of the house, I'll put it on, but like I'm
definitely not showering in it. And I all these feel
they were commenting and they were like, I've had medical

(26:29):
procedures and made them put tape over my ring. And
then people were like, that's just I guess the difference
in our generations.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
When we put our wedding ring on, we never took
it off.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
And I just want to say, if you're mixing me
and your wedding ring, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
My priorities are a little different.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
I mean, I love my husband, I hope we have
a very long marriage. And then are you okay, iff, Yeah,
neither of us wear it around the house. We both
are the only grown ups in the house. We both
know we're married to.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
Each other, right, okay, so outside the house, if UK yeah,
I would be like, I'm with you.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
I'd never heard that you're supposed to wear it all
the time.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
We both know we're married.

Speaker 4 (27:06):
I've been married a couple of times, so what do
I know.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
And then the.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
Other thing too, I have this irrational fear that I
have no idea what it's based on, but I cannot
sleep in a ring. And this is even before I
got a wedding ring, engagement ring, whatever. I have this
fear that I'm going to wake up in the middle
of the night and I'll have eaten my wedding ring
and I'm just taking it off my finger and just
like popped.

Speaker 1 (27:27):
It down and ate it.

Speaker 4 (27:29):
That is crazy.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
I have no idea where that comes from.

Speaker 3 (27:32):
The fear of eating my ring and being uncomfortable while
sitting on the couch.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
I'm not doing it.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
Oh my gosh. I don't sleep with any jewelry on.
I don't like it because I might need it.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
Well, you know you're not gonna eat it, right, irrational?

Speaker 3 (27:45):
I you know I.

Speaker 4 (27:47):
And if you did, and so what it will pass?

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Yeah? Can you imagine? And I don't know why that
would be my first thought if I like took it
off in my sleep and I couldn't find it, is
I just be like, oh.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Gosh, I ate it.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
I knew that was gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
I knew that's what was gonna happen.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
The number is ninety oh three, eight oh one, zero
zero nine, if you want to chime in, if you're
supposed to wear it all the time.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
I also don't go on vacation with it because if
you're traveling a lot, Yeah, I'm going to get on
a plane, I'm going to be swelling, like you know what.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
I mean, I don't want to wear a comfortable ring.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
That is very weird that you don't wear it if
you're on vacation. That's just a weird thing. And that's
sleep that's weird too. They're both weird anything.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
I just I'm not I'm not wearing it on a plane.
That's uncomfortable.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Wow, that is, but that's different.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Morning Mix Man Harris, Liz LUDENDJ and I I kind
of babble like but nobody needs to hear it, Like
I've just talked to myself.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
You nonsensically just say things and you kind of mutter
it underneath mutters, yeah, mutter. Well, you're doing things like
if you're looking something up on the computer or posting
something or whatever, or not like actively engaged in conversation
with other people. There's a full blown conversation going on
just between you and you, and I.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
Don't even know that I'm doing it. I'm totally unaware.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
And it somehow tends to be show tune oriented.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
Yeah, like cursing.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
It's actually usually a mixture of both, but we'll focus
on the show tunes because the swears is I cannot recreate,
uh find me in person and I'll try my best,
but even then I who have some choice words. But
your thing that you always do is yeah, I got
that cute it's little babe face, but it's whatever you're doing.

(29:32):
So like, if somebody is doing I don't even know,
like I've got I've got a morning MiGs.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
You got that cut morning. You guys told me this.
I didn't believe.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
It, and then you caught yourself doing it.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
Over and over again, like because I do not believe
you guys.

Speaker 5 (29:47):
And it's it's so funny, and but the annoying part
about it is it gets stuck in my head.

Speaker 3 (29:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (29:54):
So yeah, It'll be ten o'clock at night and I'll
just be going da to cut a.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
Line and I'm just like, ah.

Speaker 4 (30:03):
No, not like I'll just read something.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
Yeah, and so like, especially because you do your true
crime stuff, it'll be like, you got the cutest little
murd or face, and I'm just like, what the heck
is going on over there? And sometimes TJ and I'll
just stare at each other, and then we'll stare at you,
but you're so oblivious to the world around you you
don't even notice that We're like, what did he just say?

Speaker 1 (30:24):
What's going on over there.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
I don't know how that's possible that I've not known,
because I really didn't believe when you guys said that,
I'm like, maybe I said it once or something.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
No, like probably daily at least four times a week.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
Oh, I would say lose four times a day. Like
somehow it gets like worked into just random things.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
And one morning we've been like it was so frustrating.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
We tried to record you doing it, and every time
we'd hit record, you just start muttering swears, and they're like,
we didn't, and so we'd stop recording you. And as
soon as you'd stop recording, you be like a cuteess
what office supply face?

Speaker 1 (31:01):
And you're like, oh my gosh, what man?

Speaker 4 (31:06):
I am a mess?

Speaker 9 (31:08):
It's you got that massy face. I don't understand. I
don't know why I do it, how I did it?
When did I start? Because I don't many memory of
doing it until you point it out. Then every once
in a while, I catch myself, Oh, I'm doing that
thing right. Yeah, I have no idea, So I don't
God forbid that how many years I've been doing this?

Speaker 1 (31:28):
You shrust your kids?

Speaker 2 (31:29):
If that's what I was gonna say, should I should
ask them, they would see if they've ever noticede if
you ever catch them singing it right right, that would
be the one.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
Because they picked it up from you. Yeah, because it
gets sucking your head. It's so dang catching.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
What if you picked it up from them?

Speaker 4 (31:43):
Ye oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
But I think I think you should like do our
jingle for like our our new station or whatever.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
The Morning nine ninety nine point three put the jazz
hands into it. Come on, they see those I do though,
I want you to come in. It is a morning man.

Speaker 6 (32:04):
Thanks for starting your day with the Morning Mix with
Matt Harris and Liz Luda.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
There is this neuro scientist, neuro scientist named lou Anne Brisandine.
She wrote the book The Female Brain, and it's slightly
controversial that everybody agrees the stuff that's in it. But
Whitney Cummings interviewed her and she said, like, what is
the one thing that you, being a female neuroscientist, would

(32:30):
want every girl to know?

Speaker 4 (32:32):
And this is what the answer was.

Speaker 7 (32:34):
That your boyfriend is not your girlfriend. You come in,
you talk about your day, you have ten minutes. That's
not the person you talk to about Well, Abigail the
bridesmaids dresses are just not right. And then it doesn't
call your girlfriend because if you're going to bring everything
to your man, your girlfriendships.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
Are going or your guy friendships are going.

Speaker 7 (32:50):
To deteriorate, and you're putting too much pressure on that
one person to be everything to you, and that's not
fair to anyone. I grew up with music that was
like you're my son, you're my moon, I'm incomplete without you,
all this toxic stuff. No, you're one of the many
things in my life. My friendship's, my job, my hobby,
my balance.

Speaker 4 (33:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
Yeah, that's interesting, huh because they were saying, like, you know,
not everybody can hell all the emotional lifting you put
on one person.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
She's saying that it can be too.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
Much, even for the best of relationship, the best of
the guys or gals, whatever it takes.

Speaker 4 (33:22):
Maybe, but you uh, oh well, hitting close to home
a little bit.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Yeah, I mean, like, I get it, I.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
Get it you need to have people outside of your person,
But I do think your person should be able to
you should be able to give them more than ten
minutes of like unwinding about your Yeah, definitely saturating to
make every day, but like there should be times when
I feel like you should be able to go and
tell them everything because my husband's my best friend too.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
And I know people say that that's unhealthy, but here
we are right, ursus not.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
She's not one hundred percent correct necessarily. There's tough a
person about.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
This, but she I mean, I agree you should have
relationships and friendships outside of your marriage or your partner.
I think that's very important.

Speaker 4 (34:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
Yeah, and that person can't be everything, like because it's
too much pressure. Yeah, everything everybody, it is, right, Yeah,
And that is like the the millennial dating thing survey
that they just did. That was one of the things
in there that like, I've got to have this other
person and it's not cheating, but I have this person

(34:36):
that I talked to about some things that he or
she doesn't want to hear, right, not even want to hear.
But they've got their own crap going on.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
It's I mean, that's having friends. I think it's okay
to have friends.

Speaker 8 (34:46):
I think that's great and important even yeah yeah, yeah,
but it's a lot.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
I didn't realize it was going to hit you close tough.

Speaker 3 (34:56):
We got a disagreement this morning about the difference between.

Speaker 1 (34:59):
A jacket and a co Okay, we're just having a day.
It's fine.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
But you talk a lot, You take a lot more
than most people do with their their spouse.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
I think, wait too, Yeah, yeah, and I need that
and he has to be that in some capacity for me,
because otherwise it wouldn't work. Yeah, because I don't know
how to stop talking. So whoever I wound up with
had to be able to listen for long periods of time.
And he talks too.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
Yeah, I'm sure he does.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
Sometimes I have to breathe nine eight three eight oh
one year zero nine. You have an opinion? Ninety oh
three zero one years zero.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
Nine Morning Mix either one hundred point nine or ninety
nine point three.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
You can stream us at the.

Speaker 3 (35:42):

So for all our friends going out towards Hickory, that's

can take us everywhere in anywhere.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
So what are you arguing? What a dumb argument you're
having with you with your man?

Speaker 3 (36:00):
Gosh, the difference between a coat and a jacket. So
I'm gonna go ahead and preface this by saying, I
love my husband, and he's fantastic. He goes above and beyond.
I am in no way talking poorly of him. I
think that he is right, I am wrong whatever I
have to say right now. But I am cold all
the time and he is hot all the time. And

(36:22):
I am very accommodating to how hot natured he is
that I will let the air conditioner be on ridiculous levels,
like all, let him run it.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
At sixty four in the summer, and when we go.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
Into the winter months, I don't even make him turn
the air conditioner off, like I've caught him.

Speaker 4 (36:40):
Justify yourself. Now, get to your problem.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
It's how cold is it seventeen degrees right now?

Speaker 1 (36:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (36:46):
I kept telling my husband all weekend that it's going
to be really cold on Monday if he could please
help me get my winter coat out of the garage
because I can't reach the box.

Speaker 4 (36:55):
It's storage or storage, ye, And he.

Speaker 3 (36:59):
Just not doing it, And I just kept, hey, be
really nice to have my coat. And I tried to
kind of do a little passive aggressively at first, not
passive aggressing but just like dropping reminders, different hints.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Yeah. And then finally yesterday, because.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
I was getting ready to go to bed, I was like,
I really like my coat to wear tomorrow. It's gonna
be seventeen degrees. Look, the temperature's just dropping. We're in
the twenties right now. And this man had the audacity
to hand me a fleece and I said, a fleet
a jacket exactly. No, that is not a thing.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
It is not a coat.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
And I said, what the heck is that and he
said it's a police that's fine, And I said, a
fleece is a jacket, not a coat.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
I need a coat because it's a coat. And he said,
what do you think is in a coat?

Speaker 3 (37:44):
And I said, yeah, that's the bottom layer, but there's
more layers in the cut coat. You can't just give
me a fleece. And he said, well, then, what's the
point of having a fleece And I said, fifty or
sixty degree weather, that's the point of a face, not
wearing a fleece. But it's seventeen degrees outside. And then

(38:04):
he looks at me like I'm crazy, Like that's more
than enough.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
You want a winter, like a full on winter, coat.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
Yeah, it's yeah, it's seventeen degrees. I believe if there's
ever a time that you should have your winter coat, it's.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
When it's seventeen to your side, right, I mean that.

Speaker 3 (38:22):
Was his arguments ago, or you can take three steps
outside of the car.

Speaker 1 (38:25):
And I was like, does he did warm.

Speaker 3 (38:27):
Up the car?

Speaker 1 (38:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (38:29):
No, no, But then when I get in the car
this morning, his idea of warming it up was like
putting the heat at seventy Yeah, it's seventeen degrees.

Speaker 9 (38:40):
Yeah, but then it's warmed up, so now you can
get it warmed up.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
It's schools in there. And he didn't even turn my.

Speaker 5 (38:47):
Seat, I gotta say, And he put it on seventy five,
It would not have been any warmer when you got
in there.

Speaker 1 (38:55):
Like I never would have caught up your saying like, yeah.

Speaker 5 (38:57):
It would until you got moving. It wouldn't be warmer
than seventy degrees anyway.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
And you know when the sea warmer turned on too,
is that.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
A fleece is not made for seventeen degrees on that
He just kept looking at me like.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
Well, then what's the point of it? Why do you
own what? Because sometimes I don't need a full coat.

Speaker 3 (39:19):
Seventeen degree whether calls for a full coat and so
I sweater on?

Speaker 2 (39:25):
Shut you got a sweater, So a fleece and a sweater.
That should a service. The car's nice and warm and toasty.
And then you come in. You gotta walk, you know,
ten steps inside here. It's not like you're out there.
You know how to get a ditch?

Speaker 3 (39:41):
All right? All right, how dare you it's seventeen degrees out?

Speaker 1 (39:46):
I should have the w I have a coat for
a reason. Somewhere in there, somewhere in your garage.

Speaker 8 (39:51):
Yeah, maybe if you wouldn't hoard so much, you would
know where it is, right, And that's the argument he brings.

Speaker 3 (39:55):
He's like yeah, He's like, if you don't have so
many books is out there? And I'm yeah, but oh
my belongings and boxes and put them in the garage.
If I could have them in the house where I
could see them, I could very easily access my coat
right now. Put all the cleaning supplies in the hall
closet where the coats are supposed to hang.

ID have a coat? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (40:16):
Anyways, everything's going great, don't worry.

Miss It's the Morning mixed with Matt Harrison Liz Louden.

Speaker 1 (44:53):
No, here's your latest pop up tea.

Speaker 4 (44:56):
Sad news broke last night.

Speaker 2 (44:57):
A legendary Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, the
producer Michelle Singer Reiner have died, according to a spokesperson
for the family, who added quote, we are heartbroken by
this sudden loss. LA Police Department Homicide to Texas are
at the Reiners' home investigating an apparent homicide. Investigators are
also interviewing a family member Sunday evening regarding the deaths.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
A law enforcement source familiar with.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
The investigation told CNN Rob Reiner's prolific work included directing
when Harry met Sally, the Princess Bride a few good Men.
He was also in All in the Family as a meathead.
And the bodies were found in the swankie Brentwood neighborhood
west side of la And it is the person of

(45:41):
interest who they're talking to right now is their son,
who had for many years struggled with addiction issues and homelessness.
And they were both found stabbed to death. Oh, just awful.
And yeah, so that's that and hard to segue, but
we shall.

Speaker 3 (45:59):
All right, Well, we'll go ahead and move on. So
they put out a list of the top ten Christmas
songs to work out too, and it's because you want
something between one hundred and twenty and one hundred and
fifty beats per minute, because that's good.

Speaker 1 (46:09):
Cardio, not like crazy woe fast cardio.

Speaker 3 (46:13):
And apparently the best one is All I Want for
Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey.

Speaker 2 (46:17):
Well, a lot of Christmas songs are slower tempo. Yeah
see how that Yeah, that that can get you up
and moving.

Speaker 3 (46:24):
Yeah, And so then it also goes Felice Navi Dodd Okay, Yeah,
don't be followed by jingle bells, the Frank Sinatra version
rocking around the Christmas Tree grandly.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
Definitely, and it's short so you only got to work
out for two minutes. Jingle bells Michael Bouvley don't know it,
but sure, sure.

Speaker 3 (46:43):
But one that I really like is this one. This
is only if you're like really good in your physical fitness.
Is Ariana Grande's Last Christmas got an honorable mention because
that one's two hundred and six beats per.

Speaker 1 (46:54):
Minute probably length to it. Yeah, so you gotta you.

Speaker 3 (46:56):
Gotta be able to go quickly, or if you on
a cool down period, you can use Kelly Clarkson's Underneath
the Tree at ninety five beats permitted. So that might
be better like doing yoga. Yeah, some nice stretches.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
I would think Run Run Rude Off by Brian add Oh,
there you go. That one might be quicker. Yeah, has
running it all right?

Speaker 5 (47:15):
Run?

Speaker 4 (47:16):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (47:17):
Zutopia two past the one billion global box office milestone
after just seventeen days in theaters, shortest amount of time
for any PG rated or Hollywood animated film ever. Disney's
other movie at the box office this weekend was Ella
McKay from James L.

Speaker 4 (47:33):
Brooks who does The Simpsons.

Speaker 1 (47:35):

Speaker 4 (48:27):
But we're gonna talk about cookies because you buy a
one billion Okay.

Speaker 1 (48:30):
So holiday cookies.

Speaker 3 (48:32):
When you have this conversation, you talk about holiday cookies.
It's all the feelings in nostalgia, all the different ones
that you only see one time a year. And you
came into the party and you said, what is the
best holiday cookie?

Speaker 1 (48:43):
Chocolate chip?

Speaker 3 (48:44):
That's not a holiday cookie, that's a cookie.

Speaker 5 (48:47):
Eight chocolate chip cookie deserves to be in any conversation
about cookies.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
I will say that's homemade.

Speaker 4 (48:53):
Like my mom would make chocolate chip cookies.

Speaker 1 (48:55):
I don't think she.

Speaker 4 (48:56):
Maybe she did, but.

Speaker 1 (48:57):
I also don't you a lot of cookies, so for.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
Me round thing, but.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Oh man, you're missing out holiday cookie.

Speaker 3 (49:05):
When I think of a holiday cookie, I want something
that is a sugar cookie with fancy icing that looks
like sancha, or I want are they called the Danish
wedding cookies where they're covered in.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
The powdered sugar. Yeah, no idea what that is?

Speaker 3 (49:19):
Or my all time favorite is the rainbow cookie where
you have the different it's almost like an almond sponge
cake and you make three layers and it's red, green
and yellow, and in between you put the apricot jam
and then you cover it in dark chocolate.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
It's a cookie, it's not a cook it's called what
is it like a cake.

Speaker 3 (49:40):
Want you encompass it in the chocolate it becomes it
becomes a cookie better answer than chocolate ship.

Speaker 4 (49:48):
Yeah, I'm list on rank.

Speaker 2 (49:50):
Or it was Christmas cookies one hot drinks or food,
So Christmas cookies and hot chocolate than chocolate and chocolate
chip cookies, then cookies ginger bread.

Speaker 8 (50:00):
Then after that, what about like short bread cookies? Did
you decorate as long as they're decorating?

Speaker 1 (50:07):
About that one?

Speaker 4 (50:07):
It looks like a pin wheel type thing.

Speaker 1 (50:09):
Oh yeah, I like that one too, I'm talking about
it comes in the.

Speaker 4 (50:12):
Too large kind of it's kind of larger.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Oh, spirts cookie.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
I don't when you say it comes out of tin,
I think of the blue one that you use for
sewing supplies.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
I think they're called pin wheel cookies, are they not?

Speaker 3 (50:24):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (50:24):
I don't think there's not really much flavor.

Speaker 2 (50:26):
To it, to be honest, but uh oh no, there's
so there's two different conks.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
Now that's the kind of kind I was thinking of.

Speaker 3 (50:31):
Or like the peanut butter cookie.

Speaker 1 (50:33):
That's yep, I was just thinking that. Or I've never
encountered that in my life. My mom used to make
these all the time. Monster cookies. Oh, man, they're so good.
It's a little bit of everything.

Speaker 2 (50:46):
There's there's one that what is it called it's like
a it almost is like a star so but it's
like it's thin, it's it's it breaks.

Speaker 1 (50:54):
Oh what is it? The only time me you I
ever see the dang thing?

Speaker 5 (50:57):
I mean, it has like the weird sugar are weird
sprinkle on it.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
I don't know what I'm gonna make myself angry now,
but I can't. I'll figure it out. But I do
like the one. So you guys don't like them as
much as I do. I think my kids always called
them the kids and the Devil cookies or something, or
Satan's cookies.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
Or the ones that the angel cookies or what.

Speaker 2 (51:18):
We went devil, yeah, because you can't resist or whatever.
The ones that are super.

Speaker 3 (51:22):
They're like at the Cory store, thick icing and then
it's always like a vanilla sugar cookie.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
But it's yeah, I know what's like. You take one
bite and you're like, my teeth hurt.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
Your teeth hurt. You start worrying about what insurance playing
you enrolled and open enrollment, Like can I handle the
diabetes after this?

Speaker 1 (51:41):
I can't. I can't I can't do those because I
would plow right through them. I love them.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
Yeah yeah, but then also you always were like in Ohio,
like hat, there's the Buckeye cookie, the one that's.

Speaker 5 (51:51):
Like, yeah, I wouldn't count that as a cookie, that's
just like a dessert.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
Because it had like chocolate on top of it up.

Speaker 5 (52:00):
Yeah yeah, Like I think, well, it's like peanut butter
wrapped in chocolate, right, but.

Speaker 1 (52:05):
Yeah, yeah, peanut butter. Yeah yeah, but uh, they're delicious.
Though I've been talking to cookies. I'll tell you.

Speaker 3 (52:10):
That's not the right answer.

Speaker 1 (52:11):
Elves and everything.

Speaker 5 (52:13):
I have not had enough cookies this year. That's what
I am learning out of this problem.

Speaker 4 (52:19):
He found them on the internet, so they must be true.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
Matt's Odd Facts Corner.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
Doctor diagnosed the injuries that the two wet bandits suffered.

Speaker 4 (52:27):
During home alone and home alone too okay.

Speaker 2 (52:29):
Figured out twenty three of those injuries would have killed them.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
Oh yeah, definitely, that seems low.

Speaker 4 (52:36):
That does seem low, right.

Speaker 3 (52:37):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
John Hughes came up with.

Speaker 2 (52:40):
The idea to do home alone because of his own
travel anxiety.

Speaker 4 (52:44):
During a family trip to Europe.

Speaker 2 (52:46):
John's son James remembers his dad thinking what if one
of the kids had been accidentally left behind and it
was off and running, And he wrote this first script
in nine days. Wow, Joe Kreshy actually bit McCaulay calls
finger during one of the rehearsals mccaukey, and McCauley says,
he stills a white scar on his right index finger.

Speaker 4 (53:07):
Wow, jeez, you told me this the other day, and
here it is.

Speaker 2 (53:10):
The owners of the McAllister house still lived in it
during filming.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
Yeah, that's insane, he said. Sometimes they had to crawl.

Speaker 5 (53:17):
Yeah, they did a lot of filming at night apparently,
and they had to crawl from room to room so
that they didn't show up in the windows. A lot
of the filming was being shot from outside.

Speaker 2 (53:27):
Side and the movie McCauley actually cuts down a real
tree in the backyard. Yeah, oh, the iconic after shape scene.

Speaker 4 (53:37):
This was an accident.

Speaker 2 (53:39):
McCauley was only supposed to quickly touch his space, but
instead he kept.

Speaker 4 (53:42):
His hands there.

Speaker 1 (53:45):
So he's the genius.

Speaker 4 (53:46):
He's the genius.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
Right.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
Spider webs and Christmas trees are considered good luck and
some cultures, Oh.

Speaker 3 (53:53):
No, no, no, for me, that's the last I had
a spider nest in Christmass the last year I had
a real one.

Speaker 2 (54:02):
Come on, it gets us good luck, specially being of
the Ukraine. The first known use of the word eggnog
was seventeen seventy five. The word mistletoe means dung twig
in ancient languages. It's just under the dung twin. Okay,
there's a a in Italy. Instead of watching a Christmas

(54:26):
story like we do on repeat, Yeah, it's become a
tradition to watch trading places.

Speaker 1 (54:31):
Yeah, what a great movie.

Speaker 3 (54:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (54:34):
Is that crazy?

Speaker 2 (54:36):
Back to eggnog, The term nog derives fromn old, English
word for strong beer, or from noggin, a small cup
used to serve alcohol. Also, many people call eggnog milk punch.
I've never heard anybody.

Speaker 1 (54:49):
Called I don't like that.

Speaker 4 (54:50):
I don't like it easier either.

Speaker 2 (54:54):
Eggnog became a staple of Christmas celebrations in America, with
George Washington famously serving as own recipe at Mount Vernon,
so he kind of started it.

Speaker 3 (55:03):
So.

Speaker 4 (55:03):
The popularity surge.

Speaker 2 (55:05):
Even sparked a riot at the United States Military at
the United States Military Academy at West Point in eighteen
twenty six, when cadets to fight a band of alcohol
during a Christmas party.

Speaker 4 (55:15):
Drink and spiked eggnog.

Speaker 5 (55:16):
Yes, the eggnog Ryan, the Regna Ride of eighteen whatever
it was.

Speaker 2 (55:21):
So there you go. Now, you know, I'll just give
you one other. It's not really Christmas, but it's drinking,
which is great. Ben Franklin once published a book called
the Drinker's Dictionary, two hundred different terms described being drunk.
They included things ranging from He's seen the Devil to juicy. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (55:41):
I always think it's so funny when you sopp any
thing about like the Founding Followers and that, you know,
like they wore the powdered wigs or whatever.

Speaker 1 (55:47):
But at the end of the day, they were basically
just like frat boys. Be like, oh yeah, you know
what I mean. Yeah, you'll go and look at it and.

Speaker 3 (55:53):
You'll be like they were nineteen Who was nineteen year old?

Speaker 5 (55:57):
Man?

Speaker 1 (55:57):
They made a lot more of America. I don't make
that a.

Speaker 2 (56:02):
Lot more inventions than most of the true I'm just
they write code.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
Now, maybe there's something that right did a lot of
weird inventions, a lot
