Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good Morning mixed with Harrison Liz ludaeventeenth.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Of November, Power by Mark Spaniels and Isaac Hanson is
forty five.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
He's the eldest of the Hanson brothers. Obviously they had
the big song Bob. But there is something about when
you're younger. Whoever the oldest member of the boy band is,
they seemed so old. Yeah, and now that like I'm older,
I'm like, oh, he's only seven years older, which I get,
I get is a huge difference. But when we're strouder,
I was like, how dare you make smaller?

Speaker 4 (00:34):
How dare you?

Speaker 5 (00:35):
But he's forty five?

Speaker 4 (00:37):
Forty five?

Speaker 5 (00:37):
Yeah, that is crazy to think about, right, I.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
Know, right, all those little kids run around in that
music video. And then Rachel mccadams is forty seven. Obviously
she's had two of the most iconic roles ever. She
was in The Notebook and Mean Girls, and let's give
some iconic Rachel mccadams.

Speaker 4 (00:53):
Bretchen told me that you like Aaron Samuels.

Speaker 6 (00:55):
I mean, I don't care, do whatever you want, but
let me just tell you something about Aaron. All he
cares about his school and his mom and his friends.

Speaker 5 (01:05):
Is that bad.

Speaker 7 (01:05):
But if you like.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Him whatever, I can just about it.

Speaker 4 (01:09):
All he cares about is you know, the important things?

Speaker 5 (01:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:12):
Oh, how is that?

Speaker 5 (01:13):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (01:14):
I then also celebrating today, RuPaul is sixty five. Give
me some Rooe, Let's have a girl. My guilty pleasure
is RuPaul shragg Race. I have seen every single season,
every episode, and I wish I could do death drops,
but I in fact cannot. So happy happy birthday to Rue.

Speaker 8 (01:37):
That is the first time I have heard that song.
I think I've heard you reference it, what but I've
never heard it? Actually, yeah, I don't think I have either.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Oh yeah, I thought that was like a mainstream song.

Speaker 5 (01:51):
Well, I know, I don't know it.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
No, it was like released in the nineties. It's like
a fix okay, you know what? Okay? And Danny DeVito
is eighty one, and I think the funniest thing I've
ever seen Danny DeVito in is an episode of Friends
where he shows up and he is the male entertainment
for Phoebe.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Now, if you just pay me my three hundred dollars,
I'll be on my way.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Three hundred dollars. Are you kidding? Because it's okay.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Let me just give my check book.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
You're not gonna pay him. He didn't do anything.

Speaker 5 (02:22):
Didn't do anything. I took a bus all away from Hoboken.
I don't know what, like a billion stairs.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
It's not like I could take them two at a time.

Speaker 4 (02:34):
I just like Danny DeVito.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Oh yeah, everybody loves Danny DeVito. He's great and always
sunny in Philadelphia.

Speaker 5 (02:39):
Oh yeah. And it's hard to believe he's eighty one.
He've done eighty one, he doesn't.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
It just seems like he's always looked the same, or
maybe we've always seen him. So sometimes you don't see
somebody and you see him again, they age, but right,
he feels I feel like he's the same.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
He looks like he's been fifty five for forever, but
he's been in taxi like going all the way back.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
Right, you look exactly the same as you do.

Speaker 8 (02:59):
And he has just it's like how younger energy? Yes,
and what definitely not eighty one?

Speaker 5 (03:05):
Yeah, everybody works with him. Always seems that they like
him a lot, right. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:08):
I think the thing is too, is like he never
necessary he never really looked young even when he was young.
Maybe that's just got to be looking old. And then
Lorne Michaels is eighty one from SNL, Martin Scorsese is
eighty three, which okay. And then finally, there's two different
national holidays today. One I celebrate when I don't when

(03:29):
is a National on friend Day, which seems a little mean.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
Yeah, the other one necessary so yeah, sometimes it's healthy.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
And then the other part of today is it's National
Butter Day, which I do like to celebrate every day
butter not just on Butter Day, but.

Speaker 7 (03:46):
In the morning.

Speaker 9 (03:46):
It's the morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz Ludam.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
Oh, good day, friends, Happy what day you say Monday
tried to ignore?

Speaker 5 (03:57):
How are you?

Speaker 4 (03:58):
I'm fabulous?

Speaker 2 (03:59):
And TJ Hey, good morning. How about those Panthers we
win yesterday.

Speaker 5 (04:03):
It's a fun game to watch, it was.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
They're just half a game out of first place, which
is the first time.

Speaker 5 (04:10):
I spend like that in a long time.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Oh yeah, so that's pretty amazing, great game for Pryce Young.
And I can't believe it's only what nine days something
like that, ten days till Thanksgiving from this Thursday.

Speaker 5 (04:22):
Yeah, so close. It is so close.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
And do you know what the average amount of money
people are spending on Thanksgiving?

Speaker 5 (04:29):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (04:30):
I think it's substantially less and more this year.

Speaker 4 (04:33):
So I'm gonna.

Speaker 5 (04:34):
Say, uh, you are close TJ. Yeah, I'm gonna I'll
go one eighty try one thousand, one thousand.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Average america'll spend thousand dollars on Thanksgiving this year.

Speaker 5 (04:47):
WHOA, Okay, that's not just dinner.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
So it's like travel too, Yes, yes.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Your gas plane tickets, hotels, that sort of thing, you
got kids, whatever, So about two hundred ninety three on travel,
one hundred and many five on food. And they say
sometimes people do multiple Thanksgiving, so you have a little
bit more there, right, because it's kind of a some
people say it's Thanksgiving season sometimes you've got this thing
going on or a friends give friends whatever. One hundred

(05:13):
and ten on drinks seems low. They're eighty three on decorations,
center pieces and tablecloths and whatnot, and then about three
hundred on random stuff.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
I no, no, you no, no to everyone that's spending
one thousand dollars, good for you. But when you say decorations,
like I pull out the same dusty dollar tree decorations
of like a turkey made out of crepe paper every year,
right right, Like I'm not out buying new for Thanksgiving.
It is, it is a meal.

Speaker 5 (05:41):
It's only eighty three bucks.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
So I mean if you just even did like one
little decoration or a tablecloth or something, you get pared
pretty quickly.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Right.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
Yeah, Well my mom had the same pilgrim candles yeah
when I was like seven. Yeah, they've never been lit,
never been lit, They're always there.

Speaker 4 (05:58):
And the salt and pepper shaker. Did you have that?

Speaker 5 (06:00):
Oh you have that?

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Oh yeah, that's the one.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Yeah, yes, but I imagine eighty three by Yeah, but
the travel is that not everybody's traveling that far. But uh,
I could see hundred and seventy five bucks on Thanksgiving
dinner easy.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
Yeah. Yeah. Different deals that they're trying to run this
year though, where they're trying to make it for like
forty dollars.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
But that goes more than that.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Yeah, I mean we're talking about everything included, and maybe
you're also going somewhere like the day before the day
after they get it. I could see it right, uh,
and one hundred ten on drinks. That'd be just me. Yeah,
if it's possible, But yeah, you're not traveling, you're not
traveling much. I'm gonna I'm going to Charleston, uh for Thanksgiving,

(06:41):
So hopefully we'll have a Are we gonna have a
warm one?

Speaker 5 (06:44):
We always get back and forth. Sometimes it's warm, sometimes
it's cold.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (06:47):
It could change a thousand times change in the next day.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Then right now, you'll be at Charleston, so you can
like go to the beach.

Speaker 5 (06:54):
You always say that, but we don't go to That.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
Blows my mind that your family lives there and you
just never go show you drive all the way there.
You got like the sand.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
To go to like a you know, Folly or QA
or Seabrook. It's still a little bit of a another
forty minutes, maybe not for.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
Muller and eat your turkey sandwiches on the sand.

Speaker 5 (07:18):
You're nuts. You're nuts.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
Yeah, that does sound miserable. And I love the beach, right,
but sand and turkey? Yeah, no, I'm out well together. Yeah,
morning mixed man, Harris Liz Luda and there's not. Two
idiots in our home state in North Carolina are facing
charges after a fight over Thanksgiving turkey turned into a shootout.
Tommy's sixty four year old Mark Boy fifty five year
old Antonio Johnson shopping at a food Lion and high Point.

(07:44):
One of them got into it with an employee over
the price of a turkey.

Speaker 5 (07:49):
They had a deal where.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
You get one for twenty nine cents a pound, but
you had to spend thirty five dollars first. One of
them didn't understand the deal and got leppy with a cashier,
so the other guy stepped in. It turned into a fistfight,
and then from there it went to the shoot him
up in the parking lot, and here is some of
the audio.

Speaker 4 (08:14):
He got a gun.

Speaker 6 (08:16):
Crustomer came from rest to six, ran over to the
man that was all in my face, was like this
is a woman talked to.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
Me like that.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
Next thing, you know, they right there, confrontation go on.

Speaker 6 (08:28):
They fighting.

Speaker 5 (08:29):
The man was steady.

Speaker 6 (08:30):
Tossing and trying to get his gun out of his
pouch to shoot the other man, and the man was like, oh,
you want to pull out a gun. They meant right
there where the officers at and started shooting.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
It looks like Antonio was one trying to break up
this guy getting the cashier's face. Yeah, they were fighting
to the front of the store and then they both
leave the store. But Antonio is like, I got my
own gun, right, so when they got out there, Antonio
was shot in the arm. Could be all right, but
thank you no one else. Both men are facing charges
for quotes, simply simple freight and going armed to the

(09:06):
terror of the public.

Speaker 5 (09:07):
Yeah, some of those things.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
But that's gonna end up being way more expensive in
core costs and just paying full.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
Price for the turkey.

Speaker 5 (09:13):
Yeah yeah, yeah, exactly right.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
It's thirty five dollars in groceries before you add the
price of the turkey. That is how you You got
to got to make sure you do this right. If
you're going to be coupon and doing the deals, you
got to always read that fine.

Speaker 5 (09:26):
Brain right right, But.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
Forgetting and then don't pull out a weapon.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
Yeah that's yeah, that's probably big. Yeah, that's probably the
bigger thing you can rule.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
Number one, you fight at Thanksgiving with your family of
your own holor.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Thanks for starting your day with The Morning, Miss.

Speaker 9 (09:40):
It's The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison Liz lud and
now here's your latest pop update.

Speaker 5 (09:45):
Has Powerman, Park, Spain, real Estate, and train.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
The band is going viral because they performed outside of
a subway train and I just think how cool would
that be? Your like commuting, going about your day. You
get off the train and you just hear the assuming.

Speaker 10 (10:00):
Yeah, the audio doesn't sound as good all of a sudden.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
It's everybody recording on their phones.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yes, because we did it with a station years ago.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Train with the train, we did a some may remember
there used to be a trolley now it's before light rail,
and that trolley would only.

Speaker 4 (10:24):
Go it's like three stops or something that.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
Yeah, yeah, so we did train. It was a train
depot or was called there at the time or something.
So train and train. Yeah, we did more.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
Than had listeners come over and all that sort of thing.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
I think that's really cool.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
And they're doing it to promote the fact that they're
going on tour B and L naked ladies, which I
know those are your people, and should I should I
do the whole thing here? We actually do have your
chance to win if you text Charlotte C h A
R L O T T E to seven one zero
zero seven. That's Charlotte is seven one double seven because
they're going to be at P and C Music Pavilion
on July fourteenth, and I don't know, maybe they could

(10:59):
stand outside our train as he could.

Speaker 7 (11:03):
Ye know.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
Yeah, I'm glad to see he's lightened up a little bit.
He kind of took himself seriously whatever that was yeah,
ten years ago or so.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
You know, we all go through phrases. But he looks
a lot like Jason Bateman now, huh. I never saw
it until very recently. I don't know if he changed something,
but he looks like Jason Baban's like brother or cousin.
Like there's familiarity there.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
Jelly Roll just shaved his face for the first time
in ten years. Oh wow, people losing their mind. He
only told us he shaved it and hasn't given proof yet.
His wife, Bunny is it Bunny x oh yeah, broke
the news In the video she posted on Instagram. She
says she has never seen him without facial hair, but
since he's lost so much weight, lady, she choked, it's fine,

(11:44):
the time to let that jawlne shine. Then he stepped
off camera started trimming, but the camera's on Bunny's face
while he cycled through a bunch of different looks. He
tried out to go tea a copstash and then the
full clean shave. But we have yet to seen it.
I've seen it as last I knew, but when he
was done shaving, bunny grass covered her mouth admitted the

(12:07):
naked face was not terrible.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
Maybe maybe he hasn't de beauty yet though, because he
wants to be able to walk around at the holidays
and not get noticed.

Speaker 10 (12:15):
You know.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Yeah, But I will say, as a woman, I'm jealous
of men's ability to grow beards, because.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
I mean, I guess I could really try.

Speaker 5 (12:22):
I don't know how far I could.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
But you can use it to cover that turkey wottle
too as you start to age. It's not fair.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
I know when I when I had mine, uh a beard,
well yeah, little, I.

Speaker 5 (12:32):
Had a beerfull lit.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
But even when I shaved, even just this van Dyke
or go tea, whatever it is, the kids were like,
oh god, no.

Speaker 8 (12:40):
Yes, even myself. I feel weird when I don't have
facial hair.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
I think it because if you're what you're used to
and asestally bad it just like you're I think you
can freak out over what it. No, it's bad when
I do it. It's real bad.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
I've seen your license. Yeah, it's pretty bad.

Speaker 5 (12:54):
It's bad. It's real bad. I don't know because you
have a full I.

Speaker 8 (13:00):
Had a full beard for a while. Yeah, for like
fifteen years.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
So I thought, I did you with a full beard?
Mine's little patchy. Yeah, whatever what it was, that's it. Yeah,
that's what we'll go with.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
H I didn't know you had a beard. I didn't
realize that's what was happening over there.

Speaker 5 (13:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
No, I have not had a beard since I've known you.
The Panthers won, by the way, Bryce Young, great game.
They are above five hundred. They're a half game out
of first. Things are looking good.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
Good morning mixed with Matt Harris and Liz Ludah.

Speaker 5 (13:31):
Who's the problem?

Speaker 2 (13:32):
Seven o four five seven one seven nine man Liz.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
I told my mom I'm not coming to Thanksgiving this
year because she said my girlfriend is not invited. So
we have only been dating for six weeks, but she
does not have any family that lives close by. I
don't want her to be alone. My mom said it
is too soon. She'll be in the photos and she's
sick of all my exes being in pictures from holidays pass.

(13:58):
She said she's still around next year, or she can come.
I tell my mom, I guess I'll wait until next
year too. She says, I'm blowing the whole thing out
of proportion and need to suck it up and come
over on Thanksgiving? I said, no, am I the problem?

Speaker 5 (14:13):
Wow me? Yeah? Yeah he is the problem. No, he's
not the problem.

Speaker 4 (14:18):
Yes he is.

Speaker 5 (14:19):
No, bring whoever you want.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
We're open, like, bring your people in, and you know
you can the picture thing.

Speaker 5 (14:25):
It's just Thanksgiving picture, but you can.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
You could say to him, all right, but bring her,
but can you have her be the one who holds
the camera, or yeah, we do put her on the
end so we can wipe her out.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
Or if she would have just said she's a friend
or a person that doesn't have anywhere to go, then yeah,
but when you say girlfriend, you're putting pressure on it.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
Mom's got other things.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
She's got to worry about that date. She's got to
be friendly and polite to this lady. Make a good fresh.

Speaker 5 (14:48):
Should be friendly and polite anybody, right.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Yeah, but if you ever cooked a turkey and gotten
real sweaty and you're just like trying to do all
the things, and then you've got somebody you've never met
before who's trying to be all like in quiz and
you're like, I don't got time for this let me
make these mashed potatoes so they're not lumpy. Like, I
feel like you're putting too.

Speaker 4 (15:06):
Much on no pressure.

Speaker 5 (15:07):
There should be no pressure.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
And I believe in the Thanksgiving like, oh, but you're
sure bring you ever you want?

Speaker 5 (15:13):
You know somebody who doesn't. It doesn't matter if it's
a girlfriend, friend, Yes, whatever it is. Bring people. We've
got enough. Let's do this well that.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
And then also in theory, though I feel like I
would get too emotionally attached. Don't six weeks.

Speaker 5 (15:26):
No one Thanksgiving, you're gona emotionally attached. Yeah, because one,
if you do, it's not your relationship. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
But then when they break up, as they inevitably will
based on his track record, it looks like no more.
You're like, well, I missed the ex girlfriend. Maybe that's
part of it, is she misses the girl.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
That came to Thanksgiving last year or the year before.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
That is a problem before that, Yeah, you know you
can't miss it. If that's the problem, then you are
the problem.

Speaker 8 (15:50):
If you don't invite her and it does go well,
then you're just creating resemble down the road.

Speaker 2 (15:56):
Good point, because you already you've built up this thing
now right, it's the first.

Speaker 5 (16:00):
Time, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Now where does it.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
Mean she just said, whoa, let's wait.

Speaker 8 (16:05):
You're not in me, you don't have anywhere to go
on Thanksgiving and you can't go to your boyfriend's house.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
Well, I'm just.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
Saying like he should have set it up differently. He
should have handled this situation and been like, it's just
a friend or mom. There's no pressure.

Speaker 5 (16:17):
Lie to your parents. That's what you're always jerious.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
My brother was one of those for a while, but
it was always just like, uh, who's there bringing this time?

Speaker 5 (16:26):
Right, there's gonna be a plus one.

Speaker 8 (16:27):
We don't put them in the picture on the first Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
I get that if they're smart enough that girlfriend would realize,
Like I remember going to my ex for the first
time and I was like trying to hold back.

Speaker 5 (16:38):
Yeah, and they're doing their pictures.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
Absolutely, I'll take the picture or you guys, it's just
be just immediately like right, you just try to not
make them feel awkward about it, right, or let's just
all get in this one. But how about we doing
with just the blah blah blah, right or whatever.

Speaker 8 (16:51):
I suddenly have to go to the restroom and be
gone for the next twenty minutes.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
I'm really gready taking pictures. I just think you're putting
too much pressure on mom. There's too much already happening,
and you got the holidays. And then the other thing too,
is like I feel like holidays are when families fight
and you gotta be like, ah, no, I gotta be
on my best nobody turkey leg gets somebody down the table.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
She's gonna be around for a while. Throw him into
the fire man needs to know, and he's bringing her.
He's bringing her so he knows what she gets it.
The pressure is on him, not on the mom anyway. Yeah,
The Morning Minutes Man Harris Liz ludas super quirky and
looks at social media eighty seven hours a day.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
And one of the big holiday trends this year is
paper chains. I am on board with this. I have
paper chains in my holiday decorations and it's because my son,
when he was in kindergarten and like first grade, we
would sit around and we would make them together. And
if you're not familiar with the chains, what you do
is you go to like the dollar store, you buy

(17:49):
construction paper, you cut it into slips, and then you
make like a loop and then you put some glu
or tape, and then you take the next little slip
and you make a loop and you put some gluor
tape and it ends up being a giant chain of paper.
And my son always liked doing it because one it
kept us busy, it gave us a craft, but two
it made it feel like he was involved in the

(18:10):
day corps.

Speaker 5 (18:11):
You've kept it?

Speaker 3 (18:12):
Yeah, wow, yeah, absolutely, They're just construction, you know.

Speaker 5 (18:15):
But that's what I'm saying. Why I keep them?

Speaker 2 (18:16):
Then, Like you know, they're all like banged up and
smashed and getting old vaka.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
I mean, if they look bad, yeah, we'll throw them
out and make new ones. But like it's just kind
of a thing we've always done. But apparently this is
like some new trend and different companies are selling them
pre made to hang.

Speaker 5 (18:32):
Which come on, they're.

Speaker 4 (18:34):
Made out of paper.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
But now there's people on TikTok in different places that
are doing how to video on how to make them,
and they're buying really expensive paper and they're going and
buying like wall paper that's a holiday theme or the
more expensive that used to be the scrap booking holiday paper,

(18:56):
and they're saying it's because, oh, the construction paper, it's
just not durable. It's been durable enough the last sixty years.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
Has to make our paper chains.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
That forever for decades. So if you're seeing it pop
up everywhere because people are getting upset because they're selling
out places, what the pre mad the pre made ones.
Literally wow, just cut your construction paper into slips, make
the slip as large as you want the chain to be,
and then just sit there and start doing it. And

(19:26):
the people are like, ow the construction papers, heavy pulls,
use paste, use double sided tape, there's many options.

Speaker 5 (19:34):
It doesn't look good to me, but David, Oh, I
love it.

Speaker 3 (19:36):
I like the little homemade feel, especially because people are
going a lot simpler this year for the holidays.

Speaker 5 (19:40):
Like the kindergartener was at my house decorating. It was
that's the kid did it. That's fine, but yeah, like
does this still occupy your kid? Like can you do that?

Speaker 8 (19:49):
And I was like, yeah, I'm about this, Yeah, really okay,
you can do that.

Speaker 5 (19:55):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
Well, I don't know what age they he still loves
cutting things out with scissors.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
I don't know what age that goes away because I
hate that and then the other thing. Do I have
time to talk, I'm gonna go through a very quick rant.
There is this butter that is shaped like a turkey.
It is molded like a turkey. It's made by Keller's Butter.
I lived out West for a little while. I'm originally
from here. It was my favorite part of the holidays.
I saw TikTok of a woman at a grocery store

(20:22):
chain that we do have here outside of Raleigh, and
she found it. So I spent my weekend chasing butter
around the city where it said that it was in
stock and I would show up it was not there.
It was not there. The butter is a lie.

Speaker 5 (20:38):
Okay, So it's.

Speaker 4 (20:40):
Shaped like a turkey.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
It's molded to look like a turkey, and I love
it so much. I don't know why it makes me
so happy to have my food in the shape of
an animal, but it does. So if you have a
hot tip on where I can find turkey butter, not
butter for your turkey, but butter shaped like a turkey,
please let me know if you've seen it out, because
I literally went to seven grocery stores on Saturday alone.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Oh my, did you did you drag your husband and
my kid and your dog, my dog.

Speaker 5 (21:11):
Oh oh, and they.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
Would say, they would say in stock and I would
even go to the aisle and it wasn't there. And
every employee I showed it to they said, never seen that.

Speaker 5 (21:21):
And I'm like, it says into you're so weird.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
But if you are a Turkey Buttery Morning Mix, Matt
Harris is loot up TJ and people are going to
see the giant troll by renowned to Dan Danish artist
Thomas Dambo.

Speaker 5 (21:39):
It is huge.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
Uh's enormous and terrifying.

Speaker 5 (21:43):
Terrifying, sixty five feet tall.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
Yeah, that's that's large.

Speaker 5 (21:49):
I think it looks cute. It's like, though it's not
standing up, people should know.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
So it's sixty five feet kind of like long high.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
Even more terrifying.

Speaker 5 (21:59):
It's an in the.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
River district along the Kataba River, kind near the airportish
kind of.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
So I looked it up and it says if you
put in nine thousand River District drive into your GPS,
it will get you there. It's off Exit six Westwood Boulevard,
off I four eighty five. Okay, it says it's under
construction in that area though. So the roads are kind
of hard to navigate with your GPS because they're like building.

Speaker 5 (22:25):
A bunch out there.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
The statue is constructive recycled wood sourcement surrounding community in
the Kataba River region. And you when I first sawved these,
because some of them were coming to Asheville, You're like, oh,
I would never go see that.

Speaker 4 (22:38):
I do not like them.

Speaker 5 (22:39):
It is crazy to me, but.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
I respect his art.

Speaker 4 (22:42):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
So I'm originally from here. I'm from Stanley County, but
I lived out in the Pacific Northwest for a while
and they got their their troll art I don't know,
a few years back from the same guy. And the
whole purpose is that he would hide them and so
people would just be hiking and encounter them. Which how
terrifying is that nowhere it has like a sweet face

(23:03):
on it. It's not like a scary troll face. Okay,
just the same way the boo boos don't look terrifying
the same category.

Speaker 4 (23:11):
It's got a face like that.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
All right. I don't like them, and I obviously support art.
I think it's so cool. It's getting people outside and
nature and whatever.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
Kid, he's seen enough, you know, he's seen.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
Enough in his life to not need that troll.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
Wow, it a but you can go see it. I
see some people on pictures socials to see it. Yeah,
and now that it's.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
Not crowded, it's hard to get a picture of yourself
alone with it. But even some of the videos I've seen,
people are very.

Speaker 4 (23:40):
Like, nothing's scarier looking.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
Then I thought it's sixty five feet.

Speaker 4 (23:44):
Of course it's terrifying.

Speaker 5 (23:47):
Oh okay, it's just chill, man, It's just chill.

Speaker 8 (23:50):
Gonna is so like, don't there's nothing terrifying about this thing?

Speaker 5 (23:56):
What I don't see it? Nothing?

Speaker 3 (23:58):
I mean, just the fact that you could get horrible
splinters alone from touching him. Get your technists before you
go business.

Speaker 5 (24:07):
You might as well not leave your house at this point.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
Morning Mixed Man Harris Liz Luda Chance at Hornets Tickets.
In just a couple of moments, this teacher Mommy Underscore
and Underscore Zachi. She did a clip that would viral
five six million views or something like that. At this point,
uh and as a teacher asking parents, like you need
to help us out a little bit, because when they
get to third grade, we have to teach them like

(24:31):
some basic stuff, which takes a lot of time which
we should be spending on other stuff. And here's the
things that they say that they wish you would work on. Okay,
so reading reading an analog clock with confidence?

Speaker 5 (24:45):
All right, this is a third grader, chap.

Speaker 4 (24:46):
I don't have to have confidence in that first.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
But okay, uh, writing in cursive I don't know what ever.
Knowing their parents' names or phone numbers and their home addresses.

Speaker 4 (24:56):
My kid knew that.

Speaker 5 (24:56):
By My kids always struggled.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
And I'm like, yeah, you'll think how to count money
and the names and denominations of coins by third.

Speaker 5 (25:06):
Grade they wouldn't know. Yeah, but I get it. You
don't use money much.

Speaker 4 (25:10):
Yeah, that's the thing is.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
There's not like change, like lying around like it used
to be. Like sometimes my kids still confuses a quarter
with a nickel, and I'm like, buddy, they are pretty similar.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
How to tie shoes, yeah, because everyone's got the belt
crow things or whatever.

Speaker 5 (25:24):
What year they were born?

Speaker 4 (25:26):
Okay, got that.

Speaker 5 (25:27):
I don't know if my kids, I don't know they
were born.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
I mean, I don't know what you know, you're minor
easy because their round numbers, oh, five to ten?

Speaker 5 (25:34):
Got it?

Speaker 2 (25:36):
How to use a dictionary, putting things in alphabetical.

Speaker 5 (25:39):
Order, is what they're saying, Like, oh getting that?

Speaker 2 (25:42):
What?

Speaker 5 (25:42):
What? How alphabetical order works?

Speaker 4 (25:44):
Okay?

Speaker 5 (25:45):
How to follow multi step directions?

Speaker 3 (25:49):
Yet again, I would have to stop struggling with that first.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Import that knowledge on my child.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
And granted there are some you know, you've got kids
who can't do whatever is up some of these things,
but uh, those were the things that were on there.
And I don't know what year my kids learned these stuff.
I remember trying to teach him the phone numbers and
home addresses and making them into.

Speaker 5 (26:10):
Song, and then yeah, we moved, and then oh, yeah, the.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Thing I wish they would give you like a handout
on these are the things your kids should learn this year,
because I'm more than happy to teach him. But sometimes
I just don't even realize. Yeah, my dad was like
really really young. One time we went to the pediatrician
and he tried to get my kid to make the
sounds of animals on a farm. And I was like,
oh was I was? I supposed to teach him that.
We haven't gone over this, right, I didn't know, Like

(26:36):
you don't know what.

Speaker 5 (26:36):
You don't Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Yeah, the address the phone number. I know that, like
I know to do that, so I and parted that.
But some of the things, like I would know that
I'm supposed to.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
I've been my kids don't know my phone number now.
Whenever we taught it through, I forgot it because I
don't know my.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
Kids phone numbers. Oh I don't. I don't know. I
mean it's on it's on the phone, so I don't.
I don't know it. Yeah, Oh, I don't know. And
nobody's phone.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
I'm trying to think if I know anybody's phone number. Literally,
I don't think I know anybody.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
Oh my, I mean my son knows mine and my
husband's and I know mine, my husband, my sister, my mom,
I know, like.

Speaker 5 (27:13):
All of them. Well yeah, yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 8 (27:15):
I think I have like four numbers I can remember,
do you know four? Yeah, like my in this family,
like yeah, I was it a landline that you had forever?

Speaker 5 (27:23):
One of them is.

Speaker 8 (27:24):
Yeah, but also all the cell phones they've had for
twenty years okay at this.

Speaker 5 (27:29):
Point, yeah, yeah, yeah, I bet my kids don't know mine.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
I'm guessing that, yeah, probably, I don't know theirs.

Speaker 3 (27:35):
I just think, like hopefully we don't wind up in
this situation. And it might just be based on things
I've seen in movies. But you get one call if
you get arrested, right, you got to be able to know.

Speaker 4 (27:44):
The numbers to die right?

Speaker 5 (27:45):
Right?

Speaker 7 (27:46):
Right?

Speaker 5 (27:46):
Did they let you look up your in your contact one?
Who did? Who was arrested? They did let them look
in the context. Okay, good to know.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
I can know everybody's gonna be that same. But yeah,
I would be screwed. I'd have to I don't know
what I would do, Holly would I don't know what
I would do. I have one phone call, I'll be
like I could I have and I have lawyers in
here in my phone.

Speaker 5 (28:04):
You call from jail, help help one Ofody's phone numbers.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
Yeah, I know, I'm trying to think. I don't know
anybody's phone number. I just I never thought of it
right now.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
Till now.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
I used to know my exes because you feel that
informs and stuff, right, right? Is it like at your
university your No, I don't even know. I don't even
know the first part of it.

Speaker 3 (28:24):
We're gonna teach you a song or something before to
remember his phone number, because you need.

Speaker 8 (28:28):
To make sure you have what well, you know the
radio station's number, so you could just call you ever
see if they answer.

Speaker 5 (28:35):
Yeah, Like I make our requests. Could you look up
somebody's phone number?

Speaker 6 (28:39):
Four?

Speaker 2 (28:40):
I guess I should learn somebody's I'll just write it
down and keep it in a shoe case.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
I get arrested. Not a bad plan. I barely know mine.

Speaker 9 (28:48):
In the morning, It's The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison,
Liz Luda.

Speaker 5 (28:54):
Chicken stew.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
Yes, uh, you saw it on social media TikTok.

Speaker 3 (29:00):
There's a video of a lady who has been she
moved here a few years ago, and she said that
all the locals in North Carolina do this thing called
chicken stew. And I was like, oh, this must be
a tradition that was brought by someone else, right, And
so you go to someone's house and one person is
in charge of making chicken stew. And then the comments
were just stacked with people that were like, my mom

(29:23):
has a special fire pit specifically for making chicken stew.
It's chicken stew time of the year, and they're like
showing it and it's like almost a bonfire type gathering.
People come together and they eat chicken stew. And I
have never in my entire life ever heard of this.
And the people in the comments, they were all like, Oh,

(29:43):
it's because it's a country thing. It's because it's a
southern country bah blah blah blah. I grew up in
Stanley County, all right, Oakboro, North Carolina, to be more specific.
It does not get any more country than that.

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Hard Yeah, But I found out about it from somebody
from Lexi in North Carolina a few years ago said
they went to this big chicken stew, you know, a
bunch of I don't know if it was like an
actual festival, but more like just a bunch of families,
maybe a church thing. Okay, I got to get it.
I'm like, chicken stew, never heard of it in my life,
And I looked up online and some people call it

(30:18):
chicken mull uh they say, and that it is a
you know, the North Carolina, upstate South Carolina and Georgia.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
Like I've had chicken soup, chicken noodle soup, chicken and dumplings,
Like I've had the soups with the chicken.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (30:35):
Yeah, obviously we've all had chicken noodle soup, right.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
Well, not obviously, because somebody out there is seeing some
called chicken stew that I have. I've had Brunswick stew.
I have never encountered the chicken stew. And who's having
these chicken stew parties? How do I get an invite?

Speaker 8 (30:49):

called chicken bog that has like this kind of a
stew and it has like sausage and stuff in it too, right, right,
but where it's not like a gathering meal necessary, maybe
a family gathering meal, but not right right?

Speaker 2 (31:06):
I mean it looks it looks like something I might
have had before, just not cold chicken stew. They say, Well,

Alabama that popped up when I googled it.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Thank you very much, pickle, appreciate it. Morning mix Man Harrison,
Liz Luda and Priser TJ. You have about what fifty
Christmas weaters or something.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
Something like that.

Speaker 5 (35:41):
You didn't do one today?

Speaker 4 (35:42):
I didn't.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Oh wow, shocking and so you might be going to
get rid of some of those. You say you have
too many of a lot of things.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
I have T shirts still left over from six ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
There's a thing called the endowment effect, which is you
over value things simply because you own them. Yes, so
you have to ask these questions, not that it'd matter.
But what's true, But I didn't already own this item?
Would I buy it again?

Speaker 3 (36:06):
Well, that's the thing is, there's been so many times,
Like right now, I'm a little frustrated because I recently,
about like a year ago, had gotten rid of some
skirts because I was like, oh, you'll never wear those again.
They're trendy again, you know what I mean? Like, yeah,
the original ones I threw out. They were like fourteen
years old.

Speaker 4 (36:22):
But that's basically vintage, and I wish I had them.

Speaker 3 (36:26):
And now I'm like, dang it, I'm gonna buy the
same thing I already had. If you wait long enough,
everything comes back in style.

Speaker 5 (36:32):
Yeah, well maybe not everything and storage.

Speaker 6 (36:35):
You know.

Speaker 5 (36:35):
And then how much would you pay for it?

Speaker 2 (36:37):
The second question you have to ask, Well, I would
never pay a lot for anything. If I lost my
luggage with this item inside it, would I miss it?

Speaker 5 (36:44):
Would I repurchase it? Oh that's a good one. Yeah
you would, Yeah you would. We would.

Speaker 3 (36:52):
I was driving one time on the Interstate and I
had like a Duffel bag strapped to the top of
my car on like our little rack, and we lost
the duffel bag and I went down the exit to
turn around to come back, and I had to go
like five miles to go the next exit and had
my husband drop me off and I went into the

(37:13):
woods and forged it out.

Speaker 5 (37:14):
Okay, I get that.

Speaker 2 (37:15):
Okay, it was to get that close, But you have
to presume that it's lost loss. That's different. You're getting
right for free. So would you miss it and would
you would you buy it again?

Speaker 6 (37:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (37:24):
Not would you go walk to the woods to find it,
but would you buy it again?

Speaker 4 (37:27):
Wow?

Speaker 5 (37:27):
Really?

Speaker 4 (37:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (37:28):
So these items that you haven't worn in twenty years,
like if you lost it, you would buy it again.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
Some of it's nostalgia base, but yeah, that's like even this.

Speaker 5 (37:36):
Doesn't even help, This doesn't help what you're crazy?

Speaker 4 (37:39):
Crazy?

Speaker 3 (37:39):
Yeah, even when we did the little Little Halloween thing
and we were podcasters for our costume, that jumpsuit I
had that made me look like I was going to
change the oil in your car or stand in the
river and.

Speaker 4 (37:49):
Fish I had it.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
Had I worn it in three years? No, But it
was for moments like that, because you never know when
something's going to pop up that is themed or you
need something and you go, I've already bought that, don't
have to buy it again.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
If your friend was cleaning out their closet and offered
you the same item, would you be excited or would
you pass on it? I'd be excited. I love free things.
You don't know you don't you don't love every free thing.
I've seen you turn things down here that you know
because they don't fit or whatever.

Speaker 5 (38:15):
You know? You would uh, you.

Speaker 3 (38:17):
Wouldn't remember how excited I got when we unearthed a
box of old T shirts for the radio station. You
don't remember me getting moched by the other stations?

Speaker 5 (38:26):
Sucks? Get sign that is true? She did. So you
can't change a horror. I guess with ye, I guess yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:32):
Logic doesn't work, and I understand. I understand that it should,
but it just doesn't, Matt, because things.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
Belonging if somebody, uh like if something you know, if
I if I lost the riffer, could I borrow or
rent something similar if I needed to?

Speaker 3 (38:48):
And this body shape now hard it is to find
things that fit this well.

Speaker 2 (38:52):
A lot of by your body, your things you say
don't fit you anymore, but you still keep.

Speaker 4 (38:55):
Them because I know I'm gonna yoe you my way
right back.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
We're down to him I'm trying to help you, husband, Jimmy,

Speaker 1 (39:05):
For starting your day with The Morning Miss It's.

Speaker 9 (39:07):
The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
Liz, now here's your latest pop up daw.

Speaker 2 (39:12):
About Panthers only a half game out of first place.
Who would have thunk it?

Speaker 7 (39:17):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (39:17):
And Bryce Show had a record setting day four hundred
and forty eight passing yards, three touchdowns, new Panther franchise record.

Speaker 6 (39:25):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
And also either the game winning drive which is a
pretty amazing how many he's had so far h in
his history ten game winning drives in the fourth quarter
ot since entering the NFL. They're saying that is the
most by any quarterback in that span, So that that's
pretty amazing. So a half game out of first one
of the you know, it's way better than I think

(39:47):
most people thought they were gonna be this year.

Speaker 5 (39:49):
Oh yeah, and so there you go.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
Keep pounding, just keep doing better.

Speaker 8 (39:53):
Yeah yeah, try your best, scoring just a little more
points than the other team.

Speaker 5 (39:58):
Try better than your best. Yeah, what do you got?

Speaker 3 (40:02):
So train the band as the name of you know,
public transportation a train. So there's videos going viral over
social media. People that were in New York City. They
were getting off the subway and then they just see
pop Pat man Monahan, I can now talk today singing
along with a keyboard player, and it's it's basically trained.

Speaker 5 (40:26):
In the subway.

Speaker 3 (40:27):
This is a subway. Yeah, so you get off the train,
you see train, and you hear trained and it just
feels like a very fabulous experience.

Speaker 4 (40:35):
I'm really glad.

Speaker 3 (40:36):
They're not doing Hayesel's Sister though, because somebody would have
had to whip out a whole other set of instruments.

Speaker 5 (40:41):
Right, Yeah, we need like twelve people for that song.

Speaker 10 (40:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:44):
I would bet most people didn't even acknowledge it, Like,
didn't even look up.

Speaker 8 (40:47):
Right, That's what I was gonna say. Do you even
notice that it's Pat Monahan or do you just like.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
No, I think you're just most people are just doing
their routine right there.

Speaker 5 (40:55):
Right, they're on their way to work.

Speaker 8 (40:56):
You're just on your way to work, and there there's
always That's what I was gonna say, like, oh, well
that you made quiet.

Speaker 5 (41:02):
Wow, that guy's really good. Sound so much like the song.

Speaker 2 (41:05):
Yeah, but just keep moving, Yeah, head down, even if
you didn't notice to do, yeah, you're gonna do.

Speaker 3 (41:10):
I would call into work and be like, I'm so sorry,
I'm gonna be running late, and then I would just
make up a lie for why I'm running late until
late yeah, until they saw my social media and then
they'd be like, were you watching train perform? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (41:23):
I sure was, but I.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Would like to say, God after God, that was They put.

Speaker 4 (41:26):
It right there.

Speaker 2 (41:27):
We uh we did train for the train thing first, Yes,
Market Market years ago, the train little depot thing when
they had the trolley that just went a few stops
or whatever.

Speaker 5 (41:39):
We listeners meet train in the I think they had.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
Some sort of memorabilia in there too, as I recall,
but like a little barn train barns okay.

Speaker 5 (41:47):
Yeah, so they were there, met the vasions and all
that sort of thing. So I got you.

Speaker 4 (41:50):
Some people were late for wherever they were going that.

Speaker 7 (41:53):
Day in the morning.

Speaker 9 (41:55):
The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz Luda seven nine.

Speaker 5 (42:00):
Have you named your Wi Fi anything goofy over the years?

Speaker 4 (42:04):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (42:04):
Oh you have? Is it one currently you have? Or
can you say what it is?

Speaker 3 (42:09):
I won't say what it Well, it's always a Golden
Girls themed one, oh okay, and so like like right
now it's the Luni okay.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
All right, you'll like some of these because these are
punt related. So ready to a thread. What did you
name yours? One person said pretty fly for a Wi Fi?

Speaker 5 (42:25):
Oh I like that? All right?

Speaker 2 (42:27):
Uh. This person says, girl's gone wireless. Another one, uh,
hot signals in your area, Get off my Landla, that's.

Speaker 5 (42:40):
A good one. This guy says it was.

Speaker 2 (42:42):
A house was next to a Walgreens, so he labeled
his Walgreens public Wi Fi and people are constantly going
to the walk Walgreens people?

Speaker 5 (42:51):
How do I signed into that? But it was his?
That's funny.

Speaker 2 (42:54):
This one was a rebellious Amish family. Your friendly namehood
spider Land.

Speaker 5 (43:01):
Yes, I like Bill?

Speaker 2 (43:04):
Why the science five cancer beam? H not da met
sting operation? Because he lived in exit. He lived in
a trailer park and he thought they'd really like that.
But uh, the the people set.

Speaker 5 (43:20):
One up for me one time and it was FBI surveillance.

Speaker 4 (43:23):
Oh that's a big one.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
Yeah yeah yeah, minus Bill and Ted's excel Land adventure.
Somebody said, not mine, not the bat Cave, And then
this one said they labeled it my neighbor.

Speaker 5 (43:36):
Smells like belief.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
And years later they were hanging out with a dude
who randomly mentioned he'd seen a Wi Fi named in
his complex. He lived there, and he said, for years,
I was wondering if the neighbor was talking about me. Oh,
but he was, but that just ran into him.

Speaker 3 (43:52):
See, I think everybody should name their WiFi because it's
so hard to find it otherwise. Because I'm gonna go
ahead and complain about my mom. So she lives in
one of those fifty five plus unities, not a single
one of them names their dang wi fi. All of
them are the exact same name. It's three letters and
then like seventeen numbers, and I'd be like one or
two numbers different, and I'll be like, Mom, I cannot

(44:12):
find your WiFi. And she'd be like, she like has
it like written down on a postal card and she
takes out her readers and reads it and she's.

Speaker 4 (44:19):
Like, I'm telling you the correct one.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
I'm like, there are seventy three options of almost that
exact identical and then I just give up and we
use data when we're at her house.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
Right, Mine's just a some sports reference of some sort.
But yeah, that would be annoying if you had.

Speaker 3 (44:34):
This, because everyone in her neighborhood. They're all fifty five plus.
Not a single one of them is named. They're Dan wrote,
not a single one of them.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
He found them on the internet, so they must be
true Matt's odd Fax Corner.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
I would never have guessed this, but forty six of
the fifty states I have at least one town or
city named Riverside.

Speaker 4 (44:54):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (44:55):
Springfield is second most common in thirty four states.

Speaker 4 (44:58):
Because there's the whole running Joe on the Simpsons.

Speaker 3 (45:01):
You don't know where Springfield actually is because there's so
many states that could be here.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
Yeah, it's thirty four out of fifty if you're wondering.
But Riverside number one surprising to me. Do you know
Riverside near here?

Speaker 6 (45:10):
No?

Speaker 5 (45:10):
I can't. Maybe one of them.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Yeah, there's like a Rivergate neighborhood Riverside. Is this the
riverside the US state? That's the US state that is
farthest from the ocean. Oh, it's one thousand and thirty
miles from a golfer ocean.

Speaker 3 (45:26):
I am going to guess South Dakota.

Speaker 5 (45:30):
You are correct.

Speaker 4 (45:31):
Oh, you saw it.

Speaker 5 (45:34):
Two US states closest to Africa.

Speaker 4 (45:36):
Oh, that one I already knew, can I ruin it.

Speaker 5 (45:39):
Yeah, Maine in Florida. Yeah, that's correct. Yeah, you saw
the tech talk.

Speaker 3 (45:43):
I don't remember if I saw it or not, but
that one I knew because Main's closer than Florida is,
which always blows my mind.

Speaker 2 (45:48):
From twenty eleven through twenty twelve, China produced more cement
than the US did throughout the entire twentieth century.

Speaker 5 (45:56):
Whoa one year, they may.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
More we did the entire twentieth century. Lobsters are cannibals.
When they're hungry and looking for food, they'll happily and
other lobster very expensive, but they don't mind.

Speaker 5 (46:07):
It's cut butter.

Speaker 3 (46:09):
I don't need lobster, so I'm not surprised by this.

Speaker 2 (46:12):
A guy brought or yeah, brought twenty four wild rabbits
into Australia in eighteen fifty nine. They multiplied so fast
that in less than seventy years there were ten billion.
What they were were reproducing at a reign of eighteen
to thirty for every single female rabbit per year. So

(46:32):
twenty four rabbits he brings into Australia eighteen fifty nine,
less than seventy.

Speaker 5 (46:36):
Years later, there's ten billion.

Speaker 6 (46:38):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (46:39):
They are not happy with him.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
No, there are more species of sponges than mammals.

Speaker 3 (46:44):
Oh wow, that surprising.

Speaker 5 (46:47):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (46:50):
And finally, the most common name for cities in the
United States is Fairview two hundred seventy three cities with
a two or seventy three places a fair View, Midway
a second. So the other ones they gave you were
just the most states that had somebody with that name.

Speaker 5 (47:08):
Okay, we have one here. Did you check.

Speaker 8 (47:09):
There's a neighborhood in South Carolina, but not a not Yeah, it's.

Speaker 5 (47:13):
In Lancaster, but not a town.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
Riverside, right, so we're one of the I guess we're
one of the only four states that don't have a riverside.

Speaker 5 (47:19):
There's you
