Speaker 1 (00:01):
In the morning.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's a morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz.

Speaker 3 (00:04):
Ludax Morning Luda and DJO Morning sixty seven now eighty
one for your high today, only seventy on Thursday and
cooler on Friday chance of morning showers.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
New report American office workers estimate over half their day
fifty one percent goes to busy work. Man, Wow, that
is a lot, right, fifty percent. But what do they
you know, some people probably call busy work, but it's
still vital for the operation, all right.

Speaker 4 (00:36):
There's also a lot of people though, like in general,
I'm a fast worker.

Speaker 5 (00:40):
I'll get my stuff done quicker than other people.

Speaker 6 (00:42):
Which is so amazing to me, I know, right, right, But.

Speaker 4 (00:44):
Then the problem is is you finish your work and
then you're like, I still have the other half of
the day, right, and so you have to just like
pretend to be busy that way is like you know,
not here, but like yeah, in other settings, like with
management or whatever, you're like, oh, oh, I gotta I
gotta look like I'm doing something.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Right, So is that busy work or is that just
fake work? Because that's a good question, right, because they
define busy work as reading and writing, emails, data entry,
searching for files, pulling teeth to get things you need
for your task, like other people waiting, like trying to
get them.

Speaker 6 (01:18):
To do whatever they need to do.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Meetings, filling out forms, timesheet, expense reports, which I don't
know if that's busy work, right, because those things need done, right.
I always think of busy work as well.

Speaker 5 (01:31):
Something that doesn't need to be done is just to
keep you busy.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
But I think busy work they might be defining it
is just something that is mind numbing. Yeah, okay, okay,
you look into it, right, because you do need to
do time sheets and.

Speaker 6 (01:42):
You need to do well.

Speaker 7 (01:43):
There's some jobs that are all busy work. Then there's
a lot of jobs out there, not this one, but like.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Yeah, yes, but they say that, you know, we don't
work in like a normal job, so we have a
lot of that. But they're talking about, hey, AI may
be to take away some of that the busy work stuff.
It's not gonna take away like going to a meeting, right,
which is what people A lot of people don't like
to but right, some of these things might be able
to be taken away. I don't know, but it is

(02:12):
interesting because like you said, busy work. In my mind,
I kind of think of like, yeah, you're just killing time.

Speaker 4 (02:16):
I'm like reorganizing my desk drawers.

Speaker 5 (02:19):
I'm cleaning my desk again.

Speaker 4 (02:21):
I'm making fun tabs to put on the top of

Speaker 6 (02:24):
Like, yeah, that's just non.

Speaker 4 (02:26):
Say, guys, really gonna do any of that.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Eighty five percent of workers say repetitive task trigger stress
four times a week.

Speaker 6 (02:33):

kind of like on the movie day. Yeah, and hopefully
you like how it changes right in the morning.

performs with horns, and he's so funny in interviews because
he's brutally honest. Because of all his songs, this is
his least favorite.

Speaker 5 (03:14):
Anything.

Speaker 6 (03:17):
I like this one.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
And if you go through like his interviews, he's like,
I hate that song and if you like it, I
don't know why you do.

better yet morning Mixed Man Harris, Liz Luda and from
W S O. C.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
And Joe Brugos are Scary crime and folded at a
North Charlotte Family Dollar on Monday, and that's been at
the North Graham Street location of Family Dollar near Camp
North End. A family member of person inside the store
says the instant started when a woman complimented another woman on.

Speaker 6 (07:08):
Her NASCAR shirt. That's a beautiful shirt.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
You have a really into that racer because think I'm
telling me the driver is, but then demanded it off
of her whoa.

Speaker 6 (07:17):
She asked her to give her the shirt.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
She wanted the shirt, so the lady course said no
is according a new witness, she wasn't going to give
her the shirt.

Speaker 6 (07:25):
That led to a fight between the women.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Witness said the woman who demanded the shirt at one
point was throwing water bottles out of the cooler at people.
But then things got a little bit more disturbing after
that when she briefly left and came back inside with
a gun. Oh, employees got most of the customers at
the back of the store called police.

Speaker 6 (07:42):
They him and arrived and subdued the woman making the
arrest not escalated very quickly. Yeah, guess from the compliment like,
oh I love that driver. That's great. I want your shirt, right,
oh man? You know, and.

Speaker 5 (07:55):
Sometimes you did you get jellous of other people's shirts.
You're like, man, I've never seen that one before. That
one's really good.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
But what did she expect her to do? Strip down
and you handed over? And then did she even offer money?

Speaker 6 (08:05):
Sure? Did you offer trade?

Speaker 5 (08:06):
Yeah, like you gotta at least swap shirts with me?

Speaker 1 (08:09):
And her first fight was whipping water bottles. That he's right,
oh man, yeah, all right, so that thentle scary?

Speaker 6 (08:16):
So then this.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
People in Australia are built differently, at least according to
the movies and shows we see. This happened this week
and man in his fifties was out surfing and was
bitten not once.

Speaker 6 (08:27):
But twice by a shark.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
Oh wow, once bitten twice, shy, Yes, he was surfing
and not only that. After getting bit twice, made his
way to shore got into his car, drove himself to
the hospital.

Speaker 4 (08:42):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (08:42):
So like did he get bit the first time?

Speaker 4 (08:44):
And he's like, God, it's just a surface spot.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
I'll just go right back out there.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Yeah. He was attacked by what is believed to be
a bronze whaler shark. The shark, they say, was chasing
after his seal when the attack occurred. This place, the
surface called the sewer in the seal used the surfer
as a decoy. Right, so the surfer sees the shark

(09:08):
is like from behind this guy.

Speaker 6 (09:10):
Yeah. The these kind of sharks and grow.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Up to almost eleven feet in length and weigh six
hundred and sixty pounds.

Speaker 6 (09:16):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
The wound sustained by the surfer were non light threatening,
but he did have to undergo emergency surgery.

Speaker 4 (09:22):
But it drel himself, so he said on the ambulance level. Right,
is that how that works?

Speaker 1 (09:27):
He's now recovering an ustable condition. There have been four
fatal shark attacks in Australia this year and for some
reason they feel like they need to put this at
the end. All the attacks seem to be unprovoked. Well, yeah,
just so you don't blame him in the shark I guess.
But that's a weird little sentence at the end, like, ah,
I got the sharks. Oh one provoked, right, but really

(09:47):
the seal was the one to play in there, right,
This is so delicious. Yeah, I know the seal us
the guy's a decoy. Yeah so he like that. Yeah,
you can't do That's not cool, seal. Yeah, even though
you have that Bluopis mark on you, you still shouldn't be
out there. Morning Mixed Matt Harris. The super quirky Liz
Luda spends hours and hours on social media and finds
things like this.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
I love animals. I have to start with that.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
I'm fascinated by them, and every time I learn a
fact about an orca, I think they're even cooler than
the last thing I learned.

Speaker 6 (10:17):
You are addicted to orca.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
I mean, I know that they were sinking yachts a
couple summers ago or whatever, but apparently orcas have been
offering humans food. And this has been an over twenty
year study, So this has been going on for a
long time, and they have certain instances that they've studied
all across the world.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
All right, so off the coast of California, Norway, New Zealand, so.

Speaker 4 (10:39):
It's not just a specific pod that's doing this. And
the orcas are offering humans food while they are in
the water, so like if they're scuba snorke laying, kayaking, whatever, if.

Speaker 5 (10:50):
They are on boat, and they've even gone.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
As far as to try to come up on land.
The giving them fish, all sorts of different things from
the sea, and so this is where it gets absolutely adorable.

Speaker 5 (11:02):
As it started out, they were trying.

Speaker 4 (11:04):
To give like whole big pieces of like meat from
the sea, and the humans would push it back and
be like no, thank you, and the orcas would be
like no, no, no, go ahead, and they'd push it back again,
and then the humans would push it back, and so
then they saw the orcas came back the next time
and they brought it all chewed up and spit back
out for him like, oh, the humans must not be

(11:26):
able to handle a piece of meat this big.

Speaker 6 (11:28):
Let's do this.

Speaker 4 (11:29):
And then it evolved from there to after the humans
said no thank you, and they pushed it back again
and they had this song and dance. Then they started
offering the humans sea kelp se so they were like, oh,
I'm sorry, are you a vegetarian?

Speaker 5 (11:43):
Let me offer you something else from the ocean.

Speaker 4 (11:46):
And so it's happened in all these different places.

Speaker 5 (11:48):
It's happened to different people.

Speaker 4 (11:49):
Some of it are like their actual scientists that are
like in different places. Some of it it's just been
people's accounts and they try to like rule out and
so they did a big write up on it, and
it's been a twenty year study, and so they can't
actually figure out why the orcas are doing it. And
the biggest theories that they have right now is one manipulation.
We're not sure what they're trying to manipulate us into doing,

(12:11):
but it's something.

Speaker 5 (12:13):
To befriending us. They're like, hey, the humans, they're like us,
but on land.

Speaker 6 (12:17):
I wonder if they do it with other creatures.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
They with each other with each other, But orcas are
kind of known as the jerks of the ocean. They
like take down sharks and things that they shouldn't and
the other whales don't like them because they attack like
baby whales.

Speaker 5 (12:33):
Okay, that's why they're called killer raales. But some people
are really offended by that term.

Speaker 4 (12:39):
And then the other thing is they think they might
just think we're terrible hunters and they're worried.

Speaker 5 (12:43):
About us, and they're just bringing us food.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
And so it's almost like the thing with cats where
cats always are worried about like are you eating?

Speaker 5 (12:50):
Are you hunting? Can I bring you something?

Speaker 1 (12:52):
Maybe they are thinking if I give you this, you
won't eat us.

Speaker 4 (12:57):
We don't bother them, doesn't the frequently and then yeah,
but they might think that issues might.

Speaker 6 (13:03):
Think possibly that we could. So they're like, right, yeah,
he fill up on this stuff.

Speaker 5 (13:07):
Over twenty years so of trying to feed us.

Speaker 6 (13:10):
Comfortable, and then they're gonna eat us.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Oh, tatten us up and bring us into the ocean
for the food. And then they're like, ha, that's some
manipulation right there. You saw it right through it, Matt, exactly.

Speaker 6 (13:21):
I know what they're up to.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
This is The Morning Mixed Matt Harris Lives Luda.

Speaker 6 (13:26):
In the Morning.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
It's The Morning Mixed with Matt Harrison Liz Luda Mix ninth.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
It is in World Space Week, and so they're breaking
down where do people see UFOs and your old Pacific
Northwest of course at the top.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
Yeah, I would like to take a moment though, give
the phone number off, because if somebody has an experience,
I would love to do that today.

Speaker 6 (13:45):
What is even get a.

Speaker 4 (13:46):
UFO or Yeah, you've ever seen anything in the sky
you can't explain?

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Seven o four five seven seven nine seven four five
seven seven nine.

Speaker 6 (13:54):
Even if I saw something that I couldn't explain, I
would just be like, I can't explain it. I'm dumb, right, Yeah,
I wouln't even think of it.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Seven or four five seven one to seven nine A
Washington top spot. Yeah, sighting for.

Speaker 6 (14:07):
Every little over a thousand residents.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
It was second place earlier this year, but it's jumped
up Oregon number two.

Speaker 5 (14:15):
Yeah, I can see that.

Speaker 6 (14:16):
Then you go to.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Florida, Delaware and New York Delaware Florida both have major bases.

Speaker 4 (14:24):
I think it's wherever you've got that really heavy military presence,
and that's where you start seeing some weird stuff in
the sky you can't explain, and you're like, is that
ours or is that of the other worlds?

Speaker 6 (14:37):
But it takes a special brain to go there.

Speaker 4 (14:39):
I think, Yeah, we were talking and I lived in
I lived outside of Portland, Oregon, and it's like North Carolina.
South Carolina is to Charlotte, so I was technically in
Washington state, and they'd have to like let us know
ahead of time for training exercises. And the first time
that they let us know, I was like, that's weird.
But if you didn't know, and you looked up and
saw some of the stuff that they were flying, you'd be.

Speaker 5 (15:01):
Like, whoa, whoa, what's going on? I would get very nervous.

Speaker 6 (15:04):
I would not I would be taking a video.

Speaker 5 (15:05):
I'd be posting it to like Twitter back in the day,
like you yes, because it would.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Be because I would not, even I've seen weird looking
planes and stuff.

Speaker 6 (15:15):
It have to be very weird looking. Hovery it had
weird like it's some military thing.

Speaker 7 (15:22):
Right, I'd probably dismiss it, but it have to be
very strange.

Speaker 6 (15:26):
Ohoh it was. It was not that. Come on.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
Louisiana the state where you're least likely to spot a
flying saucer, followed by Mississippi, Alabama, New Jersey, Virginia, Tennessee, Uh.

Speaker 6 (15:39):
South Carolina, and North Carolina. We're you're kind of near
the bottom.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
One sighting for every twenty two hundred residents in South Carolina.
North Carolina one sighting for every twenty seven hundred residents.

Speaker 6 (15:51):
So it's it's way down at the like the bottom third.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Of things in Canadate's Alberta. So there's about a hunt
undred and seventy six thousand, six hundred and sixteen UFO
sightings across the nation, which is not as many as
I thought there would be.

Speaker 5 (16:10):
Right, those are the documented ones, and the.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
Odds of seeing one are zero point zero five two
nine percent, So I.

Speaker 4 (16:20):
Mean that's comforting. I guess, right. I don't know if
i'd want to see one. Honestly, I think I definitely.

Speaker 6 (16:26):
Do, definitely do. But again I would probably write it off.

Speaker 7 (16:29):
And be like a but no, I want to see
something so weird that it catches my attention and I'm like, man,
what what like fills me with wonder?

Speaker 4 (16:39):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (16:39):
Yes, like maybe it lands even Oh yeah, okay, yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:44):
I know.

Speaker 5 (16:44):
I'm good with I don't I don't actually want to
make You.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Don't know really No, you wouldn't like to like meet
an alien or something like it, I like, or see
a spaceship and land in your backyard.

Speaker 5 (16:55):
Oh gosh, No, I'd be so scared. I saw signs.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
Yeah, but maybe what if it just after the fact,
like it lands and it takes off.

Speaker 4 (17:04):
No, because no one would ever believe me would you
believe me if I told you?

Speaker 5 (17:07):
No, No, definitely, no one would ever believe me.

Speaker 6 (17:10):
If you have video, Yeah you would have video.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
Hey, I know you would never know.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
True.

Speaker 6 (17:16):
Good point.

Speaker 4 (17:16):
So I'd spend my entire life with everyone just assuming
I'm crazy, and then I would live with this fear
of what the happened?

Speaker 5 (17:22):
Did I hallucinate?

Speaker 6 (17:23):
Was this real? True? What's the difference? Yes? Yes, yes,
yet that mighty regular like that is true.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
I think you're walking around to getting crazy. I do
see the downside of it, like I would be the
only one.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
But I love to hear other people's stories. I heard
one guy one time. He told me I think he
lived in like Iowa and it was the shape of
a school bus, but it was like multiple colors and
it came down and a lot of people didn't believe him.
And so that's the moment when I realized, oh, oh,
I don't know if I want to be in that
unbelieved crowd.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Yeah, listen to one of this crazy overnight radio shows
on AM radio.

Speaker 6 (17:56):
You'll hear right, yeah that that? Do that?

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Uh? Find the UFO East of the Rockets because they
never land on a major city, No, never like I'm
in the middle of New York City.

Speaker 6 (18:07):
You're Charlotte or the middle of it ever.

Speaker 5 (18:09):
Your heart, it is the fine parking.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Look, well they don't want to pay, Yeah, they don't
have a place. Ballidates or not deserves validate.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
And we start telling you it's powered by Mark Spain
real Estate. And then some sad news.

Speaker 5 (18:31):
Yeah, I mean, I'm gonna be optimistic.

Speaker 4 (18:34):
But Dolly Parton's sister is calling for prayers for Dolly.

Speaker 5 (18:37):
She posted up on her social media. Frida, her sister.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
Did quote last night, I was up all night praying
for my sister Dolly. Many of you know she hasn't
been feeling her best lately. I truly believe in the
power of prayer, and I have been led to ask
all of the world that loves her to be prayer
warriors and pray with me. She's strong, she's loved, and
with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know

(19:00):
in my heart she's going to be just fine.

Speaker 5 (19:02):
God speed, my sissy, Dolly. We all love you, and
so we know what was like a week ago.

Speaker 4 (19:07):
Maybe she ended up rescheduling where she's gonna be performing
in Vegas, but she did.

Speaker 5 (19:12):
Book a date next year, and she talked.

Speaker 4 (19:15):
About it and said, you know, she's got some procedures
that you know usually involve a plastic surgeon, but this
time they're not plastic surgeons.

Speaker 5 (19:22):
So what she said, Oh yeah, she made a joke
about like, I.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
Know, I'm usually having surgeries, but this time it's not
plastic surgery, but that she needed to take care of.

Speaker 5 (19:31):
So we don't really know what's going on.

Speaker 4 (19:33):
It's probably not any of our business, but we know
that she's still not feeling her best and that her
sister is asking for our positive thoughts and prayers.

Speaker 6 (19:41):
She's seventy nine years old, I know, and she's.

Speaker 5 (19:43):
Had a rough year. She lost her husband Carl.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
Like Ooh Moore Taylor Swift stuff. She is denying the
rumor that she turned down the Super Bowl lftime show
because it doesn't pay. She says she's not interested because
she's too locked in and what Travis Kelcey is doing
on the field.

Speaker 6 (19:58):
On the tonight.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
Show, she he said that jay Z's team will sometimes
reach out to her people and ask just in general
sense how she feel about doing it. But there's never
been an official offer or any official conversation. It's true
that she's not interested, she says.

Speaker 6 (20:12):
At least not now because of Travis.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
Taylor calls football dangerous and violent chess and she says,
quote men for the whole season locked in on what
the man is doing on that field.

Speaker 6 (20:24):
The decision did not come from Travis. She said. He
would have loved for me to do it, but I'm
just too locked in. I believe that.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
I mean, also, what if he ends up playing You
don't want to be missy because you're doing whatever, and
then as he's.

Speaker 5 (20:37):
Going to be worried about you, and then you're worried
about him.

Speaker 1 (20:40):
And he just got done and she just got done
doing a lot of touring and stuff, and she's maybe, like,
I get enough. And Taylor swipt the new album. She says,
if you don't don't like it, she's okay with it.
She says, you can go ahead voice your opinion out loud.
She says, don't in her own words, quote, I welcome
the chaos. The rule of show business is if it's

(21:00):
the first week of my album release and you are
saying either my name or my album title.

Speaker 6 (21:04):
You're helping right and art.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
I have a lot of respect for people's subjective opinions
on art.

Speaker 6 (21:09):
I'm not the art police.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
It's like everybody is allowed to feel exactly how they want,
and what our goal is as entertainers is to be
a mirror. She said she's been waiting in her retire
career to make an album like the Life of show Girl,
to have fun, to exhibit mischief and be a little
flirty and fun and make jokes. She says often music
is sometimes too serious and sad and karth.

Speaker 6 (21:33):
Like good for you, but not She's not in that
place right now. Right now. She wants it's funny.

Speaker 4 (21:38):
She chows the uplifting story of Ophelia. You know, I'm
just kidding. She gave it a happy ending.

Speaker 6 (21:44):
Yeah, And I mean it's just one funny yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
So whoever, either she's being great and honest or her
pr people are great to tell her how to react
to it, because I hate.

Speaker 6 (21:51):
When people are like, how do you not like it?
She's like, you don't you like it? Whatever?

Speaker 5 (21:55):
That's taping.

Speaker 4 (21:55):
If you watch it, it's all swifties in the audience
because when they start playing parts of her song.

Speaker 5 (22:00):
Everybody is singing along. They know every single word already already, and.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
You're like, oh, she she's surrounded by love in that room.
So yeah, she feels comfortable because like if somebody had
been in the crowd had been like you fuck, you know,
if she would.

Speaker 5 (22:12):
Have been probably a little less graceful.

Speaker 6 (22:16):
Real quick.

Speaker 4 (22:17):
So tire Banks moved to Australia to sell hot ice cream.

Speaker 5 (22:20):
What's hot ice cream? You ask, Let's Tira tell you.

Speaker 8 (22:23):
I feel like I'm going crazy. It's like I don't sleep,
these ideas you keep coming in my head. It's just
like bam, wake me up. And then this one, this
one came to me. Hot ice cream, silky ice cream
that you can drink. And no, I'm not talking about
a latte. I'm not talking about hot chocolate that has flavors.

Speaker 5 (22:41):
I'm talking about hot.

Speaker 8 (22:42):
Ice cream innovation that took me over a year to
get right.

Speaker 5 (22:48):
You're gonna be able to taste it.

Speaker 6 (22:50):
And the name of it is hot Mama.

Speaker 5 (22:53):
It looks like melted ice cream.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
It looks like room temperature melted ice Yeah, thic yeah,
because it's not cold. Well, no, it's unnier than that
though it looks like to me based on what I've
seen on social media they're saying it's like a flavored
on glace, which is a fancy word that I don't
really understand. But yeah, no, it's basically just melted ice crea.
In America, it's in Australia right now. It's only at

(23:15):
her ice cream shop called Smize and.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
Dream Stop Morning Makes Matt Harris Liz Luda, I am

Speaker 1 (23:36):
Half of American's fifteen percent, we don't know the right
amount to give, even though fifty percent feel pressure to
spend a certain amount on gifts.

Speaker 6 (23:46):
And I I guess pressure.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
I don't know if pressure is the right bird because
I know that they're for a wedding, say, for instance,
something I know what I don't know, it's pressure.

Speaker 6 (23:56):
You just know what you should, right, I feel it
should just try talk to me.

Speaker 5 (24:00):
What's left on there?

Speaker 6 (24:02):
Yeah? In my price?

Speaker 4 (24:03):
Right?

Speaker 1 (24:03):
Yeah, sometimes if it's depending on how close they are
to be, but in general, fifty to one hundred bucks.
So if I'm gonna give a if it's a hundred
buck person, and maybe I can find something for.

Speaker 6 (24:12):
Like eighty eighty oh yeah, yeah, that kind of thing.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Oh yeah, like like I like this person, they're a
fifty dollars person, but if I can find something in
the registry versus one hundred and twenty thirty nine dollars, right, yeahea, ridiculous,
I don't give them the extra eleven dollars, right, But for
gifts for adults, what do you think the average people
birthday gift for adult to adult?

Speaker 5 (24:34):
Thirty?

Speaker 7 (24:35):
Yeah, twenty five, thirty fifty six. Okay for the kids, Oh, for.

Speaker 4 (24:41):
A kid, I'm going to go thirty again because it
depends like we're talking like little kids because their stuff
is cheaper. I'm hoping at a Lego set, we're going
at least seventy.

Speaker 6 (24:49):
Well, I'm hoping this means your own kid.

Speaker 1 (24:51):
Oh yeah, it doesn't say that, but the fact that
it says eighty three dollars. Oh yeah, I'm not doing
any three dollars this mother kid, no way, No, there's.

Speaker 5 (25:00):
Twenty birthday parties for.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
That, a holiday gift, oh, per gift or overall just for.

Speaker 6 (25:08):
Per person by one person.

Speaker 5 (25:09):
Oh oh, but not kids anymore.

Speaker 6 (25:11):
No, it's just that you're buying dollars.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
I think thirty dollars is my fifty dollars sixty four, okay,
wedding gift fifty.

Speaker 6 (25:19):
Fifty eighty five, okay, Valentine's gift.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
I want friends. We celebrate Gallentines. But it's basically just
cards and candies. So we're coming in at like fifteen.

Speaker 1 (25:29):
Bus this is fifty one. Whoa wow. But I guess
I guess I can't be for your mate, right because
I would have I mean I could be, I guess
for your mate.

Speaker 6 (25:38):
Yeah yeah I could.

Speaker 5 (25:39):
Yeah, yeah, I would.

Speaker 6 (25:40):
Spend fifty dollars.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
Mom's Day is fifty five, Father's Day thirty nine and
uh yeah difficult. Seventy three percent by birthday gifts for
other adults. Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 7 (25:53):
Only if I find something that I'm like, that's something
Matt Harris is gonna love, gotcha.

Speaker 6 (25:59):
But you know, in the shopping me no, no, right.

Speaker 5 (26:02):
Now, I'm gonna pay attention to something that you say you're.

Speaker 6 (26:05):
Good at that you are, Yeah, you really are. I'm
terrible at.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
It unless I'm sick, and I promise I'm still going
to bring in doublet eggs.

Speaker 6 (26:11):
One.

Speaker 5 (26:11):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 4 (26:13):
When his birthday fell, I was sick and I was like,
you don't want me making double eggs, Like this is.

Speaker 6 (26:18):
Not a good mix.

Speaker 7 (26:19):
Right now, those are the eggs I want it if
I get it for a guy and it's I'm out
and I buy my beer, right yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
I just feel like when you're an adult, and I
know that, like when you're a kid, it is supposed
to be more special and whatever, but sometimes when you're
an adult, it's.

Speaker 5 (26:32):
Like i'd like to be celebrated too.

Speaker 4 (26:34):
I don't, and it's not even necessarily me, but like
I want to make other people feel special, and so
I think that's why I lean into doing gifts, is
because like it makes you kind of feel like a
kid again for.

Speaker 5 (26:44):
Just a little second.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Sometimes it makes the person receiving the gift feel guilty.

Speaker 6 (26:49):
Doesn't always make them feel special. I know it is
on me.

Speaker 5 (26:51):
Yeah, yeah, you shouldn't feel guilty.

Speaker 6 (26:53):
They people give gifts to make them.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
They say they rather make the the person feel good,
but I think they really do because it makes them
feel good.

Speaker 6 (26:58):
Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 4 (26:59):
No, I don't think think that's necessarily true. Because though
one thing, the first thing I ever got you, what.

Speaker 5 (27:04):
Was it called the It was like a drub daddy.

Speaker 4 (27:07):
No, it was that Halloween thing and it was a skeleton.

Speaker 5 (27:09):
In the restaurant.

Speaker 7 (27:10):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah, and it had the stupidest name.

Speaker 4 (27:14):
And so I was like I saw that, and I
was like, yeah, Matt doesn't decorate.

Speaker 5 (27:18):
I have now found the decoration to.

Speaker 6 (27:19):
Go on dismantle.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (27:21):
But it's not because it made me feel good. It's
because I was like.

Speaker 6 (27:23):
Oh, something funny like that. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Sixty six percent or sixty percent sake gift gifting culture's gotten.

Speaker 6 (27:30):
Out of hand. Yeah, yeah, it has a little bit.

Speaker 7 (27:34):
If you're giving all your friends sixty dollars birthday present lot.

Speaker 6 (27:37):
Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
I haven't gotten out of control for TJ and I
because we are just non caring people.

Speaker 6 (27:41):
I guess how much of.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
People spending on their pet's birthday gifts.

Speaker 6 (27:43):
It did not put that on here, but I'm sure
I could find it at least twenty.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
I would say thirty three percent of people have told
their friends no gifts this year, don't do it.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
I have a friend who says that they say the
best gift is no gift at all. Can I say, Okay,
Merry Christmas, you don't get anything?

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Morning Makes Matt Harris, Liz Luda, and a producer TJ.

Speaker 6 (28:01):
Liz thinks she has.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
The spider sense and she can tell what our favorite
kind of French fry cut is.

Speaker 4 (28:08):
Yeah. So there was this thing going around and you're
supposed to rank the French fry shapes and there's nine
different ones. And I played this game with my husband
and I got him. I immediately knew what he would
rank them ass And I was thinking about it, and
I think I can do it with y'all as well.

Speaker 6 (28:21):
Did he do it with you?

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (28:22):
And he failed miserably.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Failed, miserably absolutely. I wrote down for you and for
TJ too, But I'm just I don't know. It's just
kind of a wild guess. I guess.

Speaker 6 (28:31):
So what do you think, okay? And what are the choices?

Speaker 4 (28:33):
Our choices are curly straight cut, wedges, steak cut, smiley, shoestring,
waffle crinkle cut or tater Tots, which I don't.

Speaker 6 (28:47):
Even consider that a French fry, but for the sake
of the gate.

Speaker 4 (28:49):
Right, and I'm going to say right out of the
gate because TJ's.

Speaker 5 (28:52):
Like, ooh, I've got three. I'm going to give you
your three, okay.

Speaker 6 (28:55):
All right?

Speaker 5 (28:56):
What I believe they are.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
I believe that yours is tater tot, steak fry, and
a wedge. And the only reason I chose steak fry
over Arby's is because I know how much you love
bow Jangles and they have a steak fry in shape
because if not, I would swap that out for an
Arby's fry like a cur curly.

Speaker 6 (29:13):
But yeah, but your curly other places. But you got
one out of three. Theater is number one.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
Yeah, I put that on him, like that's what I
did number one for you. I put you tots straight
and waffle.

Speaker 7 (29:26):
I got tot for me, Tater tots, curly fries, and
shoe string.

Speaker 6 (29:31):
Oh I was off.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
I don't know why I thought you'd enjoy a wedge.

Speaker 6 (29:34):
It felt like I don't hate a wedge. Yeah, I
don't hate any of these.

Speaker 4 (29:38):
Yeah right, all right, all right, Well, so I mean technically,
if I hadn't thought of bow Jangles, I would have.

Speaker 5 (29:42):
Had the first.

Speaker 6 (29:43):
Yeah, that's fair. That's fair for you, Matt.

Speaker 4 (29:46):
I gave you curly, and I gave you shoe string
because I know that you like delicate like spaghetti noodles
and angel hair pasta, and I feel like that is
the angel hair of the potato is the shoe string, Okay.
And then I gave you waffle because I feel like
that's what your youngest daughter eats and you just settle
for it.

Speaker 6 (30:02):
So that's what you used to close.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
Curly is one, I guess got that one, yeah, and
then straight was two, and then shoes string was three.

Speaker 6 (30:09):
Okay, so you're pretty close.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
Yeah, look at that, But you live all right as
waffle tots and Crinkle.

Speaker 6 (30:18):
I had Crinkle on your list for you to absolutely
not what.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
No, I am steak curly. Yeah, I'm steak curly than
straight and the steak yet again, it all comes back
to bow Jangles.

Speaker 5 (30:32):
It's yeah.

Speaker 6 (30:34):
Yeah, So I wasn't thinking in the fast food brain. No,
I wasn't like that either general.

Speaker 4 (30:41):
Yeah, And when I moved away and we didn't have
bow Jangles, my sister at the holidays would buy the
seasoning and the drive to Yes, I'd be like, we
got bow Jangles at home.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
We all put Smiley at the bottom though, right, Oh gosh,
it's the worst.

Speaker 4 (30:55):
My my husband, he guess he guessed Smiley and Waff
and I was like, sir.

Speaker 5 (31:03):
You well that's what he said.

Speaker 4 (31:04):
He said, well, those are the ones you buy the most,
And I said, for our child, smile.

Speaker 5 (31:11):
Yeah, there's no choice for me. I'm getting them for him.

Speaker 6 (31:14):
Nothing.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
Yeah, I think on the day, like like the wedges
and the steak are just too much.

Speaker 6 (31:18):
Yes, in my general yes life.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
I like the stick fry.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
You know why because I like to lift a lot
of condiment with it, and it's it's got the ability
to not bend and snap.

Speaker 5 (31:27):
And that's the other reason I knew that you were
going to be a shoe string.

Speaker 4 (31:30):
You're you're a dainty condiment here, Yes, yeah, you're You're
not going to need a huge scoof to get in there.

Speaker 6 (31:37):
Just reminds me of home too much, like yeah, I
was a kid or whatever. It's yeah, special reminds me of.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
Like like you know, when you like go to a
high school football game, maybe that's what it is, like
like what's it called the concession stand? Yeah, and they're
always overcooked and it's like, is this a chip or fry?

Speaker 5 (31:53):
What's happening?

Speaker 7 (31:55):
See? I always find them undercooked in that situation, which
is worse.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
Yeah, maybe I wait, no, minor, because you rush like
I don't want to wait any longer. So check them
out of the oven and eat them. And who is

Speaker 4 (35:42):
Would you rather always have your food be too wet
or too dry?

Speaker 5 (35:46):
And that means all foods, so even like chips would
be wet.

Speaker 6 (35:50):
I definitely go wet, though I think definitely wet.

Speaker 4 (35:52):
I'd go wet too, because some dry man it gets
caught in the gullet. The next thing you know, you're
making those annoying coughing noises.

Speaker 1 (36:01):
Would you rather every time you yawn a squirrel runs
into the room, or every time you sneeze ten pigeons
burst out of nowhere?

Speaker 6 (36:07):
Squirrel? Squirrel?

Speaker 7 (36:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (36:09):
Well, here's the thing about the sneeze too, because a
lot of times you'll do.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
A youht you oh, thirty pigeons.

Speaker 4 (36:15):
In Yeah, but I feel like I could use the
squirrel for my power, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Like?

Speaker 4 (36:20):
Yeah, So, like if you're sitting in a boring meeting
and you're like, I'm gonna yawn and cause chaos, and
who's gonna say, Oh.

Speaker 5 (36:27):
Liz yawned. That's why the squirrel.

Speaker 6 (36:29):
Is right, you know what. Nobody's making that connection. But
a fake yaw might not work. It's gotta be legit.

Speaker 4 (36:33):
I think I always have that yawn bubbling under the circle.

Speaker 6 (36:36):
Once you start a fake yon, the real one is following.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Yeah see, yeah, no, she just did what so how
much if it were ten squirrels and only one pigeon?

Speaker 5 (36:44):
You didn't yawn at my yawn?

Speaker 6 (36:45):
No? I didn't.

Speaker 5 (36:46):
Doesn't that mean you're like a psychopath.

Speaker 6 (36:48):
Or something which I I didn't either.

Speaker 5 (36:50):
Well you didn't see me.

Speaker 6 (36:51):
Though I saw you, but I looked away.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
What a change if you had ten squirrels or and
one pigeon, you reversed it the sneeze.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
The sneeze comes unexpectedly, yawn. I feel like you can
lean more into I want the chaos of the cute squirrel.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
You think there's not chaos when ten pigeons flying away,
there's gonna be a lot of chaos.

Speaker 5 (37:11):
Yeah, But I can't.

Speaker 4 (37:12):
I can't just randomly be like, man, I'd like to
get out of.

Speaker 5 (37:15):
This A shoe A shoe?

Speaker 6 (37:19):
Did you have another one over there?

Speaker 4 (37:20):
Would you rather have an hour snuggling fluffy puppies or
five dollars?

Speaker 6 (37:25):
What are you doing the fluffy puppies?

Speaker 5 (37:27):
I figured you'd pick take the money out.

Speaker 6 (37:29):
Of course, I'm taking the money.

Speaker 5 (37:30):
I know you would, but take the five dollars.

Speaker 6 (37:32):
Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
I think that experience is worth at least fifty hours
a long time.

Speaker 6 (37:38):
Yeah, that's a lot of cudding five dollars not to
do it, but not for an hour.

Speaker 5 (37:44):
Imagine if they were all wiener dogs too.

Speaker 6 (37:46):
I'm definitely out.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
But that was that's a weird Would you rather that
take or five dollars? There's nothing really horrible and either
one of them, but yeah, I would.

Speaker 6 (37:59):
I would doesn't always have to do.

Speaker 5 (38:02):
Well, it's two hours.

Speaker 6 (38:03):
I mean, people love dogs, I get it, but an
hour is a long time.

Speaker 4 (38:06):
An hour snuggling with dogs sounds amazing, or five dollars
also amazing.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
I'm not amazing, but I just don't have an hour
to give to that.

Speaker 6 (38:17):
Yeah, what if it was six hours?

Speaker 5 (38:20):
I take the six hours?

Speaker 4 (38:21):
Wow?

Speaker 6 (38:21):
How about if it was a thousand dollars or an
hour of cuddling? I take WHOA?

Speaker 7 (38:29):
I don't want to hear you complain about money ever again,
you're lying, you're.

Speaker 4 (38:33):
Like all the.

Speaker 1 (38:36):
And I was about to because I knew she would
take the thousand in real life. So if she took
a thousand, sake, But you can never cuddle a dog again.

Speaker 5 (38:42):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 4 (38:42):
And I'm definitely cuddling the millions.

Speaker 6 (38:46):
But never cuddle a dog again. Oh I'm taking that million?
Hell yeah?

Speaker 5 (38:50):
What about my dogs I already have?

Speaker 4 (38:51):
Though?

Speaker 5 (38:52):
Is that just no more stranger dogs?

Speaker 6 (38:55):
You can have your dogs, you can't cuddle them.

Speaker 5 (38:57):
She would feel so like.

Speaker 6 (39:00):
A million dollars worth of a million. She might be sad,
but I'm offering you a million dollars. I'm offering you
a million dollars.

Speaker 5 (39:08):
Oh don't do this?

Speaker 6 (39:09):
Would you do it? You take it? That's a yes.

Speaker 5 (39:11):
No, I choose my dog. She's like my best.

Speaker 7 (39:14):
Killing them though, yeah, they're still around that.

Speaker 5 (39:18):
She'd give me that, like, why won't you put me?

Speaker 1 (39:20):
Won't you drop up at a million dollars therapy?

Speaker 5 (39:24):
She won't understand, all right, she would pick me over
the money.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
I guarantee you my kids would take a million forever
me hugging them ever again? Oh yeah, my kids are like,
they're not big huggers.

Speaker 4 (39:36):
If you told me I couldn't hug my son again,
or a million dollars, I'm hugging my son.

Speaker 6 (39:41):
Five million.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
I'm hugging my son. I don't think there's a number
that exists.

Speaker 6 (39:45):
Wow, I definitely would take it.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
I would explain to espresson what I could explain to him,
like you know, and they'd be like, all right, how
much do I get?

Speaker 6 (39:51):
Right? That's what I was about to say, Like, and
sometimes my kids get annoyed, would be hugging.

Speaker 7 (39:55):
I wish my parents had had the option to not
hug me ever again and have five a million dollars.

Speaker 5 (40:01):
I mean, what is money? It's just some commas and numbers.

Speaker 6 (40:04):
What is a hug? But just like his.

Speaker 5 (40:07):
Personal contact and I don't need it?

Speaker 4 (40:09):
Love?

Speaker 7 (40:10):
Oh what is a hug that a good handshake? Can't
just meet that same goal?

Speaker 1 (40:14):
Here, here's a bunch of money, roll around in it.
Morning Mix Matt Harris, Liz Luda. Some dating trends that
could help you if you're in the dating world.

Speaker 6 (40:21):
They're supposed to help you.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
In twenty twenty six, Plenty of Fish pick these five
dating trends based on responses from a survey of its members.

Speaker 6 (40:28):
Let's see if you can tell by the title what
it is.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
Uh, keem ristree keem riztree chemistry you're.

Speaker 5 (40:38):
Using so you're charisma chemistry.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
Use being more open to catching unexpected chemistry. Something about
twenty five percent say they are ready for keem riz tree.

Speaker 6 (40:51):
It's with a big ris in.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
The middle point is many times you don't see the
riz in someone initially. You have to give a time
to emerge. This person says, I think this is a
bit much. He says, you should go out with everybody
three to five times before you make.

Speaker 6 (41:05):
It a dicisi.

Speaker 5 (41:05):
Oh my god, that kind of time.

Speaker 6 (41:08):
Five times.

Speaker 4 (41:09):
I think you know, you know pretty much within the
first date if somebody's the right one, sometimes you got
to go into a second.

Speaker 5 (41:16):
But like if you're going on to this knowing.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
Like, hey, this is a date, I think what I
could accept here is like sometimes if you see a
picture of someone, a picture doesn't do them justice, and
then once you meet them in person, their whole persona,
the way they move, the way they do, all of
that can elevate them with the camera's street yes or whatever.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
But I see the point she makes about social anxiety.
I do say that on a first date, can you
truly judge? Because people get nervous and they do some
weird things that might not really be them. So I
could see her saying two or maybe even three maybe, but.

Speaker 6 (41:51):
Five five is too much. I think two is a
fair give somebody a second shot, unless.

Speaker 1 (41:56):
It was a complete like there's no Kenny, there's nothing
but do like I can see people mess up, right, yeah, Like.

Speaker 4 (42:04):
I mean my first date with my husband did end
with a bro hug because I thought he wasn't interested
in me, right, and so like like we ended up
going on a second date and it turns out he
was very interested in me.

Speaker 6 (42:13):
But like.

Speaker 4 (42:15):
Three to five lot five is so much if you're
like putting yourself out there in the like online dating world,
Like you're obviously not exclusive to the people that you're
talking to.

Speaker 6 (42:25):
A necessarily something four people, just four.

Speaker 5 (42:29):
And now you're going on five dates. That's twenty dates
and maybe a month.

Speaker 6 (42:32):
That's a lot.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
Well, some people go exclusive for that person till the
next one.

Speaker 6 (42:36):
I mean it's like, right, a lot of people do that.

Speaker 4 (42:39):
Why would you do that if you're just texting with.

Speaker 1 (42:41):
Them, like you don't know that you're right, No, But
you go on a date and then you don't date
anybody else, and you go to the second date you
go to or whatever, and then you date somebody else.

Speaker 4 (42:49):
Like that first date was terrible, but I'll give him
a second chance and not talk to anyone.

Speaker 1 (42:53):
I don't know if they're hot, yeah no, but even hot,
not even hot, but there's a connection, Like basically you're
like you kind of overlook me.

Speaker 6 (43:02):
Okay, maybe they were nervous or something.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
Uh. Curveball crushing, curve ball crushing.

Speaker 6 (43:08):
Forty two percent of people said they've experienced.

Speaker 1 (43:10):
This is where you end up really connecting with someone
outside your usual type or usual checklist item.

Speaker 6 (43:14):
So it's like a curveball.

Speaker 1 (43:15):
You're crushing on somebody who was normally you're like, write
it down the lane kind of person in some physical attraction.
Maybe you didn't said you never dated a red haired
person before, so don't you teach it, Or you didn't
date somebody who was you know, in whatever job.

Speaker 6 (43:31):
Or whatever it is. This is just you're trying something different. Okay,
that makes sense. Yeah, go on a leg giving a shot,
curveball crushing, curveball crushing. Then you have uh, love louring.

Speaker 1 (43:43):
Oh, it's like a love love love law is slang
for history, stories or legends behind a given person, So
love lauring is adding to your lore thirtyven percent to.

Speaker 6 (43:52):
Do you go on dates for the story where the
story leaves?

Speaker 5 (43:55):
Oh wow, everybody does that least fun? Oh gosh ya.

Speaker 4 (44:00):
If you're like this person, they are interesting, Let's see
where this goes. But sometimes you get yourself in situations
where you're like, this is not going anywhere good.

Speaker 5 (44:08):
You need to go ahead, leave in.

Speaker 1 (44:10):
The middle of this day and get in your car
and never talk about you're saying it's it's for the story.

Speaker 7 (44:15):
Really, wow, I think I've talked to women before, like
I kept the conversation going more because the story, because
the story was like this is so bonkers or whatever,
like I just had to.

Speaker 6 (44:30):
Know, But is it?

Speaker 7 (44:31):
Ye? Dating seems like more of a hassle than just
the end of a story, right.

Speaker 4 (44:35):
Yeah, or like I mean, this is no like shade
or judgment or anything.

Speaker 5 (44:40):
But like if you say, like, hey, this.

Speaker 4 (44:41):
Is our first date, would you like to go to
like a comic con with me, I'd probably go just
so okay, go to that side and be like I
met this dude and this is where we went.

Speaker 6 (44:50):
Like it's a story.

Speaker 5 (44:51):
Yeah, I meant married.

Speaker 4 (44:53):
I can see that leaving my husband for somebody that's
in goassplay, But.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
That's one story. Like I thought it meant like you're
continuing to date him because.

Speaker 6 (45:01):
Right, we've got shot. I'll go to this weird thing.

Speaker 7 (45:04):
We've gone on two dates and then like I'm gonna
keep dating.

Speaker 6 (45:07):
I'm gonna keep dating because something weird may happen, or
like I want to see what what is this guy? Yeah,
I'm out on that. Then there's true casting.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Uh, that's which is just to show up at the
first date, and you're very authentic do you love me
or leave me approach?

Speaker 6 (45:22):
You just don't even well, no, not necessarily.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
You want to always put your best foot forward when
you're meeting any job, interview, a date.

Speaker 6 (45:29):
You said that.

Speaker 4 (45:30):
Farlow let them go because like, if you're not going
to be meeting those expectations continuously.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
How many women have said this guy didn't even put
in any effort on the first date.

Speaker 5 (45:40):
And shower.

Speaker 4 (45:40):
But I mean, like personality wise, like be don't don't
act away that you wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
Not necessarily, but you also you can ease into some
of your personality traits sometimes.

Speaker 6 (45:52):
Right, I throw it all out there.

Speaker 1 (45:54):
And status flexing the last one, which is it's just
instead of situationship and it just you state right upright.

Speaker 6 (46:00):
This is what we're doing, which is okay, you know
what they just called sat.

Speaker 3 (46:04):
Thanks for starting your day with The Morning, Miss It's The.

Speaker 2 (46:07):
Morning mixed with Matt Harris and Liz And.

Speaker 6 (46:09):
Now here's your latest pop up date. It's powered by
Mark's been real Estate.

Speaker 5 (46:14):
Got to give an update on Dolly Parton.

Speaker 4 (46:15):
So yesterday we were all beside ourselves emotionally because Dolly
Parton's sister posted on social media asking for us to
pray for Dolly Parton, basically saying she hasn't been feeling
her best lately.

Speaker 5 (46:27):
That she had been up on my praying for her
older sister.

Speaker 4 (46:31):
And you know, once that started spreading, everyone's like, oh no,
it must be bad. Because Freida Parton doesn't post very
often at all on social media.

Speaker 6 (46:39):
When it comes to.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Even if she doesn't do it a lot, that is
a one that kind of statement says things are dire,
right right.

Speaker 6 (46:46):
We don't say like I have a cold, pray for me.

Speaker 4 (46:49):
Well yeah, But so anyways, everybody started freaking out, and
so she has posted again and basically has just said.

Speaker 5 (46:58):
I want to clear something up.

Speaker 4 (47:00):
I didn't mean to scare anyone or make it sound
so serious when asking for prayers for Dolly. So maybe
Dolly's just a little under the weather, you know what
I mean, And I that's that's the best case.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
Her sister didn't realize the gravity of saying something like that, yeah,
or that somebody.

Speaker 4 (47:15):
Was gonna screenshot, who was gonna send and then screenshot
and post and then it was gonna get picked up
by TMZ and People magazine and everything.

Speaker 1 (47:22):
And I assume her sister's like at least in her seventies,
maybe eighties, so she's right seventy nine, So she's you know,
she doesn't necessarily know what would happen if you put
something like that on a real quick Taylor Swift and
I the rumor she turned down the Super Bowl halftime
show because it doesn't pay.

Speaker 6 (47:35):
She she's not interested.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
She's locked in on the trevilest Travis Kelsey her Man
and his football and all that sort of thing.

Speaker 6 (47:42):
She said.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Jay Z's teams once in a while reached out to
her team, but nothing ever official, all general type stuff.

Speaker 6 (47:48):
And so maybe she's waiting for him to retire.

Speaker 1 (47:52):
And then this crazy thing that we saw. An AI
created a WWE wrestling match between Bob Ross, you know,
the happy painter guy, and mister Rogers. And it looks amazing.
It looks amazing. It's funny. They like, they even climb
on top of a ladder. At one points they walk
in with beauties under arm. But here's some of the sound.

(48:15):
Kate said, mister Rogers walk into the rings and he's
got Marilyn.

Speaker 6 (48:19):
Been Row on his arm. I never thought i'd see
this on Monday night. Mister Rogers. It's a beautiful day
to paint this canvas with your blood.

Speaker 5 (48:27):
Rogers swings, what kind of like a happy.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
Little painter just did, mister Rogers.

Speaker 6 (48:39):
World Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Champion, mister Rogers. Of course, as
a line, you're in my neighborhood.

Speaker 5 (48:44):
Now, yeah, I do not like this at all.

Speaker 4 (48:46):
I do not like all this AI generated stuff, and
I understand that that isn't good fun.

Speaker 5 (48:51):
But what was it like?

Speaker 4 (48:52):
Two days ago, Robin Williams's daughter, she released a statement
asking people, basically begging them to stop making AI videos
with her deceased father because like the family members don't
want to see this.

Speaker 6 (49:04):
You don't know that case her case. But what was it? Robert?

Speaker 1 (49:08):
I want my anything you want with my body, and
especially was funny like this bring it on, you know,
as as long as the guy's not making money off
of it, and I'm not getting you know, my family's
not getting to share, I guess.

Speaker 4 (49:20):
But it's just like, as long as people are making
money my family.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
Okay, I don't want them making money off my image
without sharing it with my you know, leftover people.

Speaker 5 (49:30):
I think they are, though some of the.

Speaker 6 (49:31):
People are not creating them. I can see that.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
That's the only time other than that or making me.
Do you do something I've seen if you want to
really there?

Speaker 6 (49:38):
Yeah, do I care?

Speaker 5 (49:39):
You might have done it while you're alive.

Speaker 6 (49:40):
That's true. People would believe it. Yeah, it's impossible to
believe anything in the morning.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
It's the morning mixed with Matt Harrison Liz lud.

Speaker 1 (49:50):
Happy National Pet Obesity Awareness Day.

Speaker 6 (49:55):
Are you aware that your pets a beest?

Speaker 1 (49:57):
A full third of pet owners admit their cat or
dog could stand to lose a little weight. Thirty three
percent of cat owners thirty five percent of dog owners
say their pet is overweight or obese.

Speaker 5 (50:07):
I buy for the term chunky chunk.

Speaker 1 (50:10):
Okay, but studies have found the real numbers are like
sixty percent probably. Oh wow, Yeah, you know, we have
ourselves to play as pet owners, Right, you're going to
feed them.

Speaker 5 (50:20):
I'll say this, Neither of my dogs are obese.

Speaker 4 (50:24):
I had a dog when I was younger though that
that she she was a wiener dog and she did
get a little obese. I feel like as a fat
person you get judged more by the vet where they're
like now, I know you're the one that's feeding them.
You need to make sure like you don't put your
bad decisions on your pets.

Speaker 6 (50:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
Fifty four percent say they given with their pet bags
for treats. Yeah, I mean the best way is to
feed them last. But she might be able to exercise
them a little bit too. But there's coming out with
a pet zempic. It's been approved by the FDA and
it could be ready the next few years that vets
can go on.

Speaker 6 (51:00):
I guess said they consider it.

Speaker 5 (51:03):
Yeah, and doggie diabetes is real.

Speaker 6 (51:06):
Over half of BET said they would it was proven
safe and effective. They're in.

Speaker 1 (51:10):
They looked at the top words bets used while telling
their pet owners that the pets need to lose weight,
because they say it's not easy to bring up little
you know, so it's a touchy subject.

Speaker 6 (51:21):
The top three words they use are overweight, obese.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
They do do that and just bluntly telling people your
pet is fat.

Speaker 6 (51:31):
That's number three.

Speaker 1 (51:31):
Then they also use chunky and chuppy yeah okay to
say yeah.

Speaker 4 (51:36):
I also like, have you ever been somewhere where they
have the Garfield chart and.

Speaker 5 (51:39):
It's it's still like as a joke, but it'll be.

Speaker 4 (51:41):
On the wall, like you go to a doctor's like
the different like medical things or whatever, and it's like
your cat on a scale of one to ten.

Speaker 1 (51:48):
Garfields, Well, most of the people I have known that
have had obese pets have always been yeah, I got
a fat cat.

Speaker 6 (51:58):
Yeah I got a fat dog. Right, is not the
healthiest thing.

Speaker 1 (52:01):
But but won of eight people say they're embarrassed when
the bet tells in that whoa.

Speaker 5 (52:06):
My mom has a fat cat.

Speaker 4 (52:07):
That thing weighs like thirty eight pounds, all right, it
is giant. And she's always like, I just have her.
She has her dry food and I give her some
wet food in the morning and that's it.

Speaker 5 (52:17):
And then I was there one night and she was feeding.

Speaker 4 (52:20):
It a lunchable and I said, wachable, wow, lugible, just wow.

Speaker 5 (52:25):
She doesn't eat the crackers.

Speaker 4 (52:26):
And I was like, oh, thank goodness, she's counting her cars.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
Morning makes Matt Harris and Liz Luda TJ.

Speaker 6 (52:34):
Liz loves Halloween and.

Speaker 4 (52:37):
Random science facts as well. And when you start talking agriculture,
I lean in and I say, tell me more. And
I encountered a video on TikTok and it's talking about
giant pumpkin facts, and I think they're fascinating in general.
And there is a difference between a giant pumpkin and
a regular pumpkin. It's actually a different species. And there
are the ones that grow huge, and so the longest

(53:01):
or not longest, the largest one that's ever been recorded
was over twenty seven hundred pounds.

Speaker 6 (53:06):
Whoo.

Speaker 5 (53:07):
So when we say huge, we mean huge.

Speaker 6 (53:09):
Can you eat those? Are they? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (53:12):
Technically you can. I mean it's still like a squash gourd,
you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (53:16):
Is it going to be good? Who knows?

Speaker 4 (53:17):
Right?

Speaker 5 (53:18):
But they can grow up to fifty.

Speaker 4 (53:19):
Pounds per day, and scientists say if they had the
right circumstances and everything was absolutely perfect, ideally they could
actually grow up to twenty thousand pounds oh my god,
he which is giinormous.

Speaker 5 (53:36):
But so what's really cool with these.

Speaker 4 (53:38):
Though, is so because they grow so quick, what happens
is they usually start out with like a whole field
filled with them, and then they kill off all of
them except the one that they think is going to
be the biggest, and so they focus on just that one.
And because they grow so quickly, their skin on them
can crack, so they cover them in wet blankets to
keep them moist as they're like growing bigger and bigger.

Speaker 6 (53:58):
Their only goal here is the set of record basically.

Speaker 5 (54:01):
But because they're so.

Speaker 4 (54:04):
Sought after after you have that, if you grow one
of these ginormous pumpkins and it does win awards, the seeds,
one seed from that pumpkin could sell for eight hundred
and fifty dollars. And then this is the part I
get excited about because I've been lucky enough to see
this twice in person when I was living out in
the Pacific Northwest in Oregon is where they grow a

(54:25):
lot of the giant pumpkins. And what they do is
after the fair season and they get all the seeds
and everything out of them, they hollow them out and
they make regattas, which is.

Speaker 5 (54:34):
A boat, and then they have races.

Speaker 4 (54:38):
And then the people with the they and it's like
it's like yachting with pumpkins, because you can win a
lot of money if you're regatta is the one that wins, right.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
And so they're only good for one race probably while
you can probably get.

Speaker 4 (54:52):
A couple races out of it, because I mean they're
thick though that wall is thick, and think about the
fact they've had wet blankets on them as they were growing.

Speaker 6 (55:00):
The pictures are incredible.

Speaker 4 (55:01):
And so like people decorate them up and so you wanna,
yeah see, and so they just have one person getting them.

Speaker 5 (55:09):
And I'm actually too large.

Speaker 4 (55:11):
I do believe I've never been invited onto anyone's pumpkin
rettic because they're afraid.

Speaker 6 (55:15):
I must sink it.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
I imagine just their head picking up, but at least
half their body is.

Speaker 4 (55:18):
The cut half of it off the top, and then
they scoop everything because they want to sell the seeds
because they're so expensive. And then you just use paddles
and then they paddle and they race in them, and
it's like a really lucrative and a fun thing to do.
And there's something so magical about seeing a pumpkin boat.

Speaker 6 (55:37):
I guess, yeah, yeah, apical picture. Yeah no, I would
go watch that if I was in town.

Speaker 5 (55:43):
I feel like you are black also, I am.

Speaker 4 (55:47):
Yeah, I'm down for a god time.

Speaker 5 (55:51):
Don't squash my dreams.
