Speaker 1 (00:00):
Real vegs for starting your day with the Morning Mix

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Oh, Happy Birthday. It is the uh what is the eleventh? Yeah, eleventh,
the eleventh of December and Morning Mixed Birthday is powered
by Mark Spain Real Estate. Yeah, n's are no Strong.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Hailey Steinfeld is twenty nine, so happy birthday to her,
and then Ryder Strong is forty six. As I've gotten older,
I've liked Boy meets World less and less. But when
I was growing up, you could not tear me away
from TGIF because I had the biggest crush on Riders
Strong and he was the bad boy.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
It's boring. That's why the whole feudalism thing didn't work out.
They got bored out of their freaking minds.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
What it's too far? No, you know, just.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Once, I would like to learn something somewhat relevant to
our lives.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
WHOA it was like so edgy in the nineties, by
the way, That was.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Him supposedly drunk real class, Yeah, next class. Yeah, that's
him out of control because he was a bad boy.
Speaker 6 (01:00):
Matt, I know, I know he wasn't he adopted?
Speaker 5 (01:03):
No, Yeah, he had a rough home life, right, Yeah, well.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Because that's because he's out next door. I remember the
big dramatic scene where you don't understand the other dad
yelled the other their fighting and I love you though
finally a guy loves me.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
I think you're describing. Mostly it comes from the nineties.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yeah, that always seemed to be a big scene that
happened I And then I'm just gonna lean strongly into this.
Speaker 5 (01:23):
Brenda Lee is eighty one.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
She made this song rocking around the Christmas Street when
she was thirteen.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
She sounds like she's sixty singing it.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Fucking to the man Business Street at Christmas.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
She does, doesn't she imagine a thirteen year old walking
up to you just talking like that, I'd.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Be like, I mean, she'd already been smokeing for like
eleven years.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
That's true.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
That was a different time, Hey mom, hang it, doell it.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
And then you know, I absolutely, just you know, love
that song.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
But then Rita Moreno is ninety four, and you and
I both get into the show tune.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
So I picked my favorite. I feel pretty, oh.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
So pretty, I feel pretty and witty and gay and
I pity any good who's in need.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
West Side Story Baby, I love that one. Yeah, real bad,
bad but in that gang of jets and sharks.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Yeah, well, once you're a jet, your jet all the way.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
And Brenda Lee knows from your first sea.
Speaker 6 (02:24):
Together, Joe the finding.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Today's National Holidays.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
It's a National app Day, and I want to tell
you how disappointed I am. It's app like the app
on your phone or your iPad or your tablet. I
thought we were leaning into the triple dipper at Chilis.
I thought they meant like appetizers. But I feel like
you can celebrate by scrolling.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
An app and eating an app.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
There you make it like.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
A full moment, you know.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Do that?
Speaker 6 (02:47):
Do that?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
It is mixed one hundred point nine or ninety nine
point three Matt Harris, Liz Luda for your TJ.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Thanks for starting your day with the Morning Mix with
Matt Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Good morning Luda, Good morning t J. Mornay thirty six
degrees right now, I'll get to forty eight fifty three Friday,
fifty seven on Saturday, and then it's winter again on Sunday. Winter.
Speaker 6 (03:13):
Yeah, you're right, highs on the Sunday forty Well, it.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Was like nineteen or something.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
My husband's already prepared me.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
He's like, I know you're gonna be extra saucy, so
extra socks.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
It's gonna be fine, all.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Right, you won't be doing well for the next few months. No,
they just openly admit they did a survey study on
millennials and relationships and it's called the nerd normal. Somebody
one percent say nerds are sexy, okay, not educated, not capable,
actual nerds. They describe it as bookworms, dungeons and Dragons players,
(03:47):
obsessive with deep knowledge about niche topics. Yeah, they And
they say it's because millennials grew up with chaos.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
We just don't care.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Financial crisis is political volatility, burnout culture. So they want
stability and competence and someone who disappears into a passion. Uh,
nerds have depth. Well, I don't know if that's true necessarily,
because sometimes it's all they know.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Right.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, it doesn't mean it's depth just because it's a
complicated game.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah, it's not that though. It's a you find joying
what you want to find joy. And so rather than
pretending to like have the hobbies that the adults had
before us, now we're like, you know what I do
like to collect Funko Pops or my Beanie Baby collection
should be on display. I'm gonna sit over here on
a Friday night and brush the tail of my my little.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Pony and watch the Boy Beats World reruns.
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Not what I think they're talking about.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I think they're talking about more of the women be
attracted to the guys who do those things, not guys
being attracted to women who like my little pony.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Is this the big Bang theory theory?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Yeah, I guess there you go.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
It's just like all these nerds get these smoking hot girls.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah right, yeah, yeah, I mean it's I mean, I
don't know. I'd like to know what the stat was
before or was it, because if you ask people, it's
one thing to say it right, it's another thing to,
you know, be the guy at the bar who's talking
dungeons and dragons.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Right.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
It might not be in practice as much.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
As it is.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, like if you open with this
is my dungeons and dragons too, like.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
It might take pause.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
But I like to see people that are passionate about.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I'm wrong with them about it.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
I'm just not necessarily saying that.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I don't know if in practice there are people are
hanging outside that you know, the game play and stop. Yeah,
women are there, like I hope you know Doorkerson comes
out here. But that's good though, that's good for I
think that I'm a nerd in the sense maybe of
could you be a nerd and be like deep into
(05:47):
like football or is that doesn't count? I don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Football. Yeah, I think that.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
If you're that can make you nerdy involves Matthew.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
Okay, I'm gonna try to figure out how way to
be nerdy.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Yeah, you know what though, like your your hobbies are
watching sports and then true crimes, so like that, honestly.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Red Flag.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
And like the cat.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
I would feel like you probably would probably do better
if you did get into dungeons and dragons.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Yeah. Probably, You're probably right. I didn't need some help.
By the way, my true crime podcast Impact of Influence.
Check it out wherever you gets your favorite podcast. And
we have our podcast too. Yeah you still get that.
That'll be available on the website, which is mix Charlotte
dot Com Morning Mixed Matterrisless, Lota and uh, you have
(06:39):
a problem with SpongeBob.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
I know, Oh my gosh, it's because he plays his
nose like a plute and I hate it so much
in the stupid opening song.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
But the the Burger King folks, you know they have
their limited time collaboration. Maybe oh yeah, that's part of
a new SpongeBob's movie promotion. Yeah, it looked like they
have like mister as Cheesy Bacon Todds bottom bundle.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Yeah, we've already hit the drive now.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
But what happened is that these customers are now coming in.
Instead of ordering, they're playing parts of SpongeBob into the
speaker to prompt the workers. So there's a customer plays
and over the tap Krabby patty preparation jingle, which ends
in shouting preparing the Krabby patties, and that's how they order.
(07:27):
And then so that right now they they'll put them
a TikTok and the you know, the drive through person,
it's like, okay, Gabe Vindel or whatever it is, right
because they've seen it herd a ten thousand times. Uh
there's one where they play the whole uh oh, the
customer starts playing I'm a goofy goober. I guess there's
a SpongeBob song or something. So they play out all
(07:48):
these things so they'll take like a squidward saying something
and they'll play it into the thing. And these people
have just about had enough. Yeah the ten thousand times.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Yeah, they're making minimum way, come on.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I will say this though, it does give you a
little bit of job security because I hate ordering from
AI when you're in the drive through, and I bet
you AI would get very confused and be like, we
don't have crab here.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
And then also the West Coast fast.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Food chain In and Out Burger.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Oh yeah, they've removed the number six seven from its
ticket order system, you know, like the deli number type thing,
because the payp were getting tired of it of people
every time they set it out, like I said, but
so they removed it. It's just just jumps from six
to six to six eight.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
But that's kind of be a problem. What once a day,
I know, come on.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
They're probably ordering it intentionally just to hear it.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah, yeah, but you'd have to wait, right, it's.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
The number that you go in order.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Have you ever been to an in and out though quickly? No,
it is like hundreds of people. It feels like every
single time.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
They say people wait. Yeah, so they're just clogging up
the area because they're just waiting for the six seven things.
Give us the word of the year, by the way,
and yeah, so and then there is another six number
that they've already removed. Yeah, which I would have thought
that would right, that was the good old days, right,
(09:18):
And then just one of their sing a saul on
the old innerweb because I want you not to do this.
I don't know who has pet turtles, and I don't
know who have to tell this to, but apparently people
think that if they have turtles, turtles apparently bury themselves
to hibernate. They're going out and burying their pet turtles. No,
and a self described turtle expert, it's telling people, you know,
(09:38):
don't don't do that. It's it's not really how they
do it. They kind of and they bury themselves. It's
probably not gonna go well, it may and may not,
but don't bury your turtles.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
So do you remember in the nineties, Uh, well, we
found out later. But hamsters they'll do this thing where
they'll kind of, I don't want to use the term hibernate,
but their heart will really slow down.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
And a lot of people thought that their hamsters had passed.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
I like from the tree.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Oh, they were.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Burying them and they were re emerging, and it was like, yeah, yeah,
they were putting a thing out that was like, hey,
maybe you should take your hamster to the vet to
get it checked out, just to make sure Jesus hamster
an event.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Thanks for starting your day with The Morning, Miss It's.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
The Morning mixed with Matt Harris and now here's your
latest pop.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Up in real estate.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Billboard did their year end charts and it turns out
that Taylor's Fist Life of a Show Girl is the
album of the year, Morgan Wallen is the Artist of
the Year, and Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars Die with
a Smile is the Hot one hundred song of the year.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
So they do this thing where they released their end
of the year charts.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
This is the twenty twenty five ones, and you know,
there were some other stuff that made it into it
in the top one hundred Hot one hundred songs. Tipsy
by Shaboozi made it, which that kind of rolled over
from the year before. I think, right, I.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Don't remember, that's what time.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Yeah, and then the top two hundred albums or whatever,
it's Life of a Showgirl, Taylor Swift. I'm the Problem
Morgan Wallen, and then Sos Sizza and then in the
global songs Birds of a Feather Billie Eilish.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
I liked that one. It was a little slow though,
but I like it.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I like it. I'm a fan.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
And then top artists Morgan Wallen, Kendrick Lamar, Taylor Swift
kind of what you expect, but in the top duo
group Hunterricks made it from K.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Bob demon Hunters, demon Hunters, and.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
If we break it down by female and male artists,
it throws a Sabrina Carpenter in the mix. And then
Drake Okay, and then Best New Artist Alex Warren, which
we kind of probably knew because he's been everywhere.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Morgan wall I saw it was the most listened to
album on Apple Music worldwide.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
He had thirty seven songs on the Hot one hundred
in one week, in the first country to artist to
hit number one since Taylor Swift in O nine.
Speaker 5 (12:00):
Geez not to downplay his success.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
I feel like if K pop Demon Hunters had come
out sooner, though, they might have beat him in the
streams because that's been so huge with all the parents
and the kiddos.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
I saw this Conan O'Brien has a podcast or whatever.
But Conan O'Brien's parents died within three days of each
other last December, right, and he had a weird way
that I would do too of dealing with it. He
ended up in this text conversation with will Arnette. You know,
Will Arnett is yeah, and Jason Bateman and he so
(12:31):
will Arnette text him and basically says, sorry to hear
about that.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
That's you know, that's awful. Bl blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
This was when the dad died before mom died, and
he said, yeah, he says, but tell Bateman, I know
he did it, and so so they laughed about that.
Then all of a sudden they found will Innett found
out that CON's mom died few days later, and he
texted him and said, sorry about that. Do you want
me to tell Jason Bateman where your sister lives? You
(13:03):
know what?
Speaker 3 (13:03):
Then we all cope in different ways, and humor is
probably his best way to go.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Yeah, there's like eight million views on it on an X.
He says, he Conon explains that, you know what's weird.
I swear to God, this is how I grieve. It
was so comforting me to screw around with you guys
at that moment, and it would makes me a madman,
then so be it so? And then he wou When
he asked for her sister's address, Coon did give it
to him, but said make it look like a burglary.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
I'd be like, how dare you?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Right?
Speaker 2 (13:29):
How dare you? But you got to know your audience
on those Yeah, yeah, but that is that is exactly
how I deal with things like that.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Yeah, and one of the quest This is an all
little segue going from something as bright and happy as
that Triture year would doesn't take a Christmas tree down
until Garth's birthday in February.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
She said she.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Doesn't put like any real rules out. Once it goes up,
they celebrate it. They keep it holly jolly. They have
a party. They invite everybody over to do Christmas cookies
and you have to bring your favorite recipe and everybody bakes.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Together and it's just so that's a great time. They
probably don't even see their tree. It's probably one of
their eight thousand rooms.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Yeah. I figured it wasn't going down till the sun
came up.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
You go, you got trees in low places yeah, I don't.
Speaker 6 (14:12):
Even know, but yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
But because car that ties together because Garth Brooks a
serial killer, we know, right.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
That is taking everybody down a hold of drabbit hole.
Speaker 6 (14:23):
That is Tom Sagur I think started that.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Yeah he did, he did.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
This is a mix one hundred point nine and ninety
nine nine point three and our phone number we have
a new one. Yeah, we do nine eight oh three
eight oh one hundred nine.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
So go ahead and try to remember that because we're
not for a couple of days. But if you like
write it down, just put us in your phone, like
when you're parked or you're stopped somewhere.
Speaker 5 (14:48):
That way you're able to join in on the.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Funds for starting your day with The Morning Mix with
Matt Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
And Google Trends. I told you a moment ago that
South Carolina google's Grinch sweaters more than Santa sweaters, where
North Carolina it's the opposite. There's only five states that
do the Grinch sweater more than the Santa sweater. South
Carolina's very grinchy, but Grinch is big this year apparently. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
I mean we saw just with the McDonald's Adult meals
the Grinch socks.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And there's also one of the like a Walmart or
a Target or something has a Grinch or I don't
know whereas there's a bunch of Grinch commercials, but they
don't Grinch.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
This year look a.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Little bit off from the the who that you see
the movies, right, yeah, definitely, and then the the This
is an all time high. Christmas villain clothing is an
all time high this year. I mean it's like way higher.
We're talking about Marvin Harry costumes. It's the home alone guys, right,
you're right, yeah, what do you I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Well, actually dressed like them when it's not the holidays.
You know, I'm just a beanie a sweater with a
jacket over the sweatshirt.
Speaker 5 (15:56):
Like that's that's a typical Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
And and the Grinch outfit, and I mean it has
shot up over the last couple of years, but this
year it's an all time high. We're loving, loving the
villains even more. Grinch door decoration all time high. Greench
socks searched over ten times more than Santa Sox.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
I think that that.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Has something to do with those McDonald's socks though, because
people were going bananas for them.
Speaker 5 (16:22):
Because I have the yellow pair.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
I wanted the blue pair, but like I was happy
to get what I got, But I saw where people
are reselling them for.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
Like really twenty dollars a pair, So maybe.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
They're searching not to necessary buy him, but to find them, to.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Find them or to resell them, or to see if
someone has a specific collar, like even if you get
on Facebook marketplace right now, that seems to be a.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Real hub for the socks.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Yeah, and then there's also people that are like, I've
got two reds I'll trade somebody a red for green,
like everybody's talking about their socks.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Yeah, I think the greench socks should be green and
nothing else. I think it's an out right yes.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Oh no, they're curing, no no, no. There was the
green ones that were the Grinch. The red ones had
the McDonald's logo and then the Grinch. The blue ones
had the Grinch's dog that looks like a Wiener dog,
which is why I wanted the blue. And then the
yellow ones have Cindi lu who which is fine, But
the yellow ones are gonna show they're wear and tear
first because it's a light colored sock.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I've never really dove that deep into sock world. So
you yelled at me for you know, if I wear
my socks for just a few hours, I'll wear them again.
But see they wear out. You just well, I'm saving
Oh yeah, okay, if I just wear them like today,
you know, home by eleven or twelve, it's only six
hour wear or.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
Something that's pretty nasty long, too long?
Speaker 6 (17:38):
I question, you know, it depends. I'll smell them first, grench.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
If you very stink stanks dunt it is, yeah, very
sink stanks dunk. And also search interest in funny white
elephant gifts all time high.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
Can we talk about how all I've seen on social
media are the people that are showing up with the
rotisserie chickens to the white elephant.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
I hate this.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I hate it so much because one that is not
kept at a room safe temperature for you to be
able to ingest it too, those meaty juices are gonna
get on that paper.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
So I don't like that.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
I don't know it's gonna get on the carpet or
the little the little Christmas tree skirt, I don't know.
I don't like the idea of putting a rotisserie chicken
and wrapping paper and then letting someone unwrap it three
hours later.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
You can't eat it.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
You're just gonna say three hours?
Speaker 4 (18:28):
Ye, three hours?
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And room temperature, Well, you bought it hot and then
so it probably takes a lot of cool down. What
three hours?
Speaker 5 (18:38):
Maybe if you wrap it in foil first.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I don't know. That does not feel safe. You're supposed
to be funny anyway, right, I guess, but it feels Yeah.
I'd rather have that than another sinking chia pet, which
is also trending.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
Oh, I do love the chia pets, though you do not. Yes,
I do.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I have a Sofia one. I spray painted it from
Golden Girls. I spray painted it gold It's a conversation
piece in my home.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
The this says not left or tistory chicking, not to
be left out of a room tempter more than twelve hours.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
Twelve hours, okay.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It says two. There's no way. There's no way. This
just is not you.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
This is just asking for tummy troubles, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Hours? That's hard to believe, right, No, it's not hard. Definitely. Yeah,
we'll think about turkey, right, dinner that's out for way
more than two hours.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Absolutely, absolutely not.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
That's the last thing you pull out of the oven.
And then the other thing.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Is that he's gonna take at least an hour, probably longer.
You're not going to clean up until whatever.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Right, Yeah, but you put the jerkey up first. That
is a poultry. You're just asking, like telling.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
You're eating habits, our foul. It is true. More mix
one oun point nine and ninety nine point three. Both
those dial numbers will help you find us. One hundred
point nine and ninety nine point three.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
I'm assuming you're on one of them right.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Now, the streaming, the streaming, or you might be if
you move out and then from one of those it's
things start to get a little weird. You can switch
over to the other one. Yeah, just go back and forth,
back and forth. There you go. So, uh, let's look
a super quirky and she looked at social media eighty
seven hours a day, so you don't have to.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
They got rid of the divider, and I'm outraged. I'm
so upset about this. So the popcorn tin that has
been a holiday classic my entire life.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I used to get the.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Popcorn tins for Christmas from aunts and uncles that didn't
know me that well, I'd buy my own and it
always has the plane popcorn, the Shutdar popcorn, and the
caramel popcorn. And you would open the tin and they
would be separated by this little cardboard divider. And over
the years it's evolved and changed.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
The tin has.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Gotten smaller, and there was still the divider, and then
there'd be a bag that you could open and dump
into each divided section.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
The divider is now gone.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
I had the bag part.
Speaker 5 (20:54):
Well, the bag part started about like eight years ago.
I think it was, I don't know, but so anyways,
now the divide is gone.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Now it's just mayhem, like they're not all blended together.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah, but how are you gonna have all three flavors
at the same time and keep regrated.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
They're in a bag, right, They're in a bag.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Yeah, I'm saying. What I'm saying is it's not like
they're all dumped loosely.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Well, but even if you went like caramel plane and
then cheddar. If you're having the Cheddar and you decide
you want to dig down for that caramel, now you're
mixing it. You're just mixing all the popcorn together and
I don't like this.
Speaker 6 (21:28):
Oh yeah, you gotta get your own divider.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I guess I sound very angry about this, and it's
because I am.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I don't like this.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
It's unacceptable, and I want the divider to come back everywhere, though.
Speaker 5 (21:37):
I don't know. I don't know if it's everywhere. So
if you if you know, if you've got to like.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
The idea of all of it mixed in, because you
up doing.
Speaker 6 (21:44):
That anyway, right right?
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (21:45):
No, but butter, cheddar and caramel, like all in one bite,
like that sounds great?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yeah, a little you can't. We're back to my you know,
I like a surprise everyone in my mouth. Yeah, so
you put it in there and you're like, whoa, there
was a cheddar in there.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Yeah. See. I like the ide you have making your
way around the wheel, you know what I mean. You
go cheddar, then you go plane, then you go caramel,
and then you just every bite is a transition bite
and I am here for it and I don't like it.
And I feel like that just one more thing where
they're like, you know, they made the tin smaller, now
they're taking the divider.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Give me my divider.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
I don't know maybe I'll go in patent like a
divider you can buy and just keep it home.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
I think it's called the bubble pieces of cardboard.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Right, yeah, yeah, they were so perfectly perfect.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
And then also that number nine eight oh three eighth nine.
Speaker 5 (22:32):
Can I do my song?
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Nine eight oh three eight oh one zero zero nine.
Speaker 5 (22:38):
Nine at three?
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Yeah, n three eight one zero zero nine.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
If you're out there, it's just Mike gone. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (22:46):
I don't even know if anyone can hear.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Us but you. But if you tell us about that divice,
is it exists? It doesn't exist.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
Have you encountered it this year in the wild?
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Or you want too much.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Division in this country?
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (22:57):
This is the unification.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
We need the popcorn again.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
Yes, I think it's a big popcorn.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Just paying for one less thing in my tin and
then you know what else bothers me. I'm just going
to get on my little soapbox today because food is
what I get passionate about. You know, bugles, how when
you get them when you were a kid, you put
them on your fingers and you pretend that they were
like fingernails, and then you eat them off and you
always be like they don't fit on your fingers anymore
because your fingers got bad.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
Right, That's how I diagnose it on me.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Yeah, America.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Now there's some of them that are slightly flattered. There's
no consistency, you mean, like, it's.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Not just you were a kid and now you're adults.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Listen, I wore for like most recently eight years ago.
I do remember specifically being in a car ride and
eating bugles off of my fingers, and so I don't
know what happened, but it's if the magic's gone.
Speaker 5 (23:51):
There's no divider.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I can't be a lady with witch fingernails eating my bugles.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I just can't. Yeah, I don't like change are going today, guys,
Morning Mix Matt Harris is ludaprous RATEJ. We all want
to be a little more likable, or maybe not, maybe
we don't give a crap. But here's some habits that
you should do. This is a respond to compliments with
genuine curiosity. Okay, let's assume you get them, oh yeah.
Instead of a deflecting praise or just saying thanks, you're
(24:20):
supposed to ask follow up questions like what made you
notice that or what specifically stood out?
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Oh I hate that?
Speaker 3 (24:29):
That wouldn't make you more likable to me If I like, hey,
I like your shirt. If you were like, what do
you like about my shirt? And I'd be like, I don't.
Speaker 6 (24:35):
I don't think I would say it like that. That
the tone you gave me a.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Yeah don't right, but I feel like that's how it
would come across.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
But if I would say it like, oh cool, what
do you like about you like the color, you like
the design? I don't know. I wouldn't do that, but
that's I guess what they're saying.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
I had somebody when I was younger that I used
to work with that said I needed to learn how
to accept compliments because whatever they would be like, oh
I like your you know whatever, say outfit, I'd be like, thanks,
I got it on sale.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
A typical woman think yeah, And I.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Would be like, just because I'm saying it was all
sale doesn't mean I wasn't accepting it.
Speaker 5 (25:05):
I was letting you know in case you really did
like it, right.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Yeah, But it is kind of deflecting because so you're
supposed to say or what stood out? I guess if
someone said, ay, we like your shows, like, oh, what
specifically did you like about it?
Speaker 4 (25:18):
I would now that's different than like something about your
appearance or something I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Like so that is a tough one. Yeah,
remember one specific thing about each person you meet.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
I do that. Yeah, I tried to do that.
Speaker 5 (25:33):
It's never their name, but it's something else.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Usually that could be their dog's name, they're renovating their kitchen,
they love horror films, whatever it is. It makes you
seem like a memory wizard. Minimal effort and they're gonna
be feeling great about it. Sometimes I'll remember if somebody
you're the guy who likes whatever team yes, yeah, yeah,
that's probably enough. Yeah yeah, But other times I don't
have any clue. I gotta be better the the the.
Speaker 6 (25:59):
The ask about the story behind things.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
So you say, instead of a nice haircut stead of
nice county, you say, oh, what made you decide to
change your hair?
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Oh that sounds insulting.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
I understand being inquisitive and asking questions. I think people
like to talk about themselves, so you like to give
them the opportunity.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
But I think there's a different way to approach that.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Yeah, I had I had a date ask me one
time why I had long hair, And I always thought
that was weird.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I could Okay, maybe she's saying like, maybe it has
a meaning or something.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Yeah, I don't follow any rules, you're a bad boy.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
It just felt weird to me. It did not feel
it felt like, hey, why are you doing that? You
shouldn't be doing that, so why are you doing it?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
But maybe it's just like you know why. I would
be like, what made you decide to stop cutting your hair?
Or when was the last time you cut your hair?
Would it be better?
Speaker 4 (26:52):
That would be definitely better? Cra of it? You know.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
I know you're trying to give us tips, But I
feel like if somebody said, uh, why did you stop
cutting your hair?
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I'd be like, does it look bad?
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Right?
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I don't know. Okay, that better one where they say
instead of just saying, oh, that's a great watch, saying
is there a story behind that watch? Okay that I
like that?
Speaker 4 (27:10):
I don't like that.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Then again, it's like no, I mean I don't have
a story, body, Yeah, just got.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
It on sale, let me tell you all the details,
and deflect again.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
People love sharing the background of their choices, makes them
feel seen, makes you feel like you're really interested.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
I think getting it on sale is part of that. Story.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Yeah, yeah, but you know, but that's you're giving it.
They're saying, this is what you have to ask. Oh,
so that would be like, where did you get that?
I like your shirt?
Speaker 5 (27:35):
Did you get it on sale?
Speaker 6 (27:40):
What is the return policy?
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Now?
Speaker 5 (27:43):
Why did you choose that shirt?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
It is the morning mixed or a new number because
you'll need to hear in a minute, maybe nine eight
oh three eight oh?
Speaker 3 (27:52):
You want to sing the song, don't you? Nine eight
oh three eight oh one zero zero nine.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
I think I changed ad You got a right, No,
I met the song.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Because this is the question, it's ever changing. What did
you say when you're saying sassy Rudolph? As a kid,
so I didn't realize we had different versions, but growing
up it would be rude off.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
The red nose reindeer. Reindeer had a very shiny he knows.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Like a light bop had. That's okay, And so.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
He couldn't enjoin in any reindeer games like Monopoly, which
in hindsight really doesn't make sense. I've never seen a
reindeer play Monopoly.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Have you seen him fly? Have you seen him with
with a red and shiny beeping nose?
Speaker 3 (28:31):
I have seen, but at the end you go down
in his story, what did you say as.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
A kid like George Washington?
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Like Washington?
Speaker 3 (28:42):
Apparently that changes from region to region, and not even
just like from state to state, it changes from like
town to town what people might say. And so I
posted a video asking this because my mind was blown,
because think about it, if you're outside of the United
States too, like are the yelling George Washington? And so
it turns out that people say things like Christopher Columbus.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
That's problematic.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
The next person commented and they said, like the Jackson's.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Which okay, okay, all right, little hipper.
Speaker 5 (29:15):
Elvis Presley, Okay, I.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
Don't have a ring to it.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Well, also like history, all those music acts history, but
there is history.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
I guess somebody in England told me that they said
queen Queen Elizabeth, So that like George Washington. But there's
all sorts of different answers that people have been giving
the games to.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
Yeah, but those.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Ones weren't as interested in football.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Oh, a lot of people say football.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Apparently that's big in Alabama, but I think it's related
to their colleges.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's all.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
They have to look forward to in Alabama syllables.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
What everything would have to work right, like monopoly.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Like football, the gootball doesn't work, like parties, I guess,
I guess wouldn't work.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
So it's just so funny to me that people have
different things that they say, and I never really thought
about it. And then some people said they said Pinocchio
twice like the Lack and call you names like Pinocchio,
and then then you'll go down in his story like Pinocchio,
which seems very redundant.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Yeah, definitely, but that's because it's the chorus. It's it's
a because that's the comedy of it. Like they called
him name like Pinocchio, but the turn of events is
he also went down in history.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
So at first they're making fun of him.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Oh, but then it wraps around that's very history. I know,
I'm smart.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
So another person they said they would yell out like
the Flintstones.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Okay for the history.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
Yeah, I don't like.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
Some people said Fred Flintstone specifically.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
This person said that they said, John Wayne, you'll go
down in his story like John Wayne Pilgrim.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I guess right, eight oh three eighth one zero zero
nine nine eight o three eighth one zero zero nine, and.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Then another big one apparently was Abraham Lincoln okay.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
And then I also had a couple of people say Nixon, okay, wow,
Richard Nixon. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (31:18):
Did you ever think about it?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Though?
Speaker 5 (31:19):
Like yesterday, my mind was so blown by this.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
I was like, wait a minute, We've been saying different
sassy things.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
And I never heard it called sassy. No me neither
never heard that term.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Rudolph I might have made that one, okay.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
And I never heard the adding like Pinocchio or whatever
until I was way into my like thirties. Oh really,
So my husband, my husband tried to heard that.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
He said that it's because I'm younger than him, that's why,
because he said he never did that growing up.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
I never did it.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
And then I got to prove him wrong because the
lady that commented and said they said like the Jackson,
she said that she learned it in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
So I was like, for sure, well, your husband and
I are respective of the song. And it's to this
songwriter with it a classic ves.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
For starting your day with the Morning Mix with Matt
Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
New number of your staying with us, We're gonna give
it to you, not who you want to give me?
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Sing it nine Nato three Nato one zero zero nine
nine Nato three Nato one zero zero nine.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
Sure that'll get him. The thing that you saw was
something on TikTok. Somebody was talking about it. Something that
I lived as as a child. Oh and I'm still
living this life.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Anything that my kid wants at this point, I tell
him Christmas is coming, you mean, oh yeah, so like
if he wants, I mean, I'm not gonna be so
far as to go like he can't have toothpaste, but
you know, basic necessities. I don't know, maybe Mommy will
put it under the tree, like I have to buy it.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
Anyways, everything is a president at this point.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
I always whoever was doing the talking Santa or whoever
you have in your house, he I would get. As
a kid, we always got a toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoos, sometimes odorant,
the odorant, you know, stuff like so you know, an
orange in the bottom of course.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
Yeah, and then but.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
A depression was hard for a lot of the breaking
my day. But we didn't get We would get like
my brother remember one time got a giant for then
at that time, giant catch a bottle. He left ketchup,
so we got yeah, sixty four ounce hind ketch a bottle. Yeah,
and I would go to a lot of people don't
even know you get pizza in a box. Oh yes,
(33:32):
chef boy alardy pizza. Y. Yeah, I would because you
can put it's not frozen, it's just so. I guess
like it though too, So I would get that under
the tree.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
Get to make your own holiday pizza.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Well, I mean I probably didn't. They probably just took
it then and made it. So there was all kinds
of things like that you would get growing.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
I did it the other day. They gave out free
potato chips.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
Here at the radio station. Yeah, I put in a
box and I said, that's going under the tree.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
Oh yeah, Mommy's giving you potato chips for Christmas this year.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
Yeah yeah, I think. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
I thought I was doing the same thing for my niece.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
But I don't think that's unusual. I think it's always
been a thing. You get sock shoes whatever it is, right,
But you just reminded me by the way. Uh, the
folks here at Mixed we had a holiday party and
they gave you like things to fill out. You put
them in a container and I won the Moe's gift card.
Speaker 5 (34:27):
Oh yeah, thank you, I know you did.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Yeah, And I went to Moe's yesterday. That car has
expired and I'm like, she's like, I'm not why it's working.
She's calling, like the advantage over. She's calling somebody on
the phone. So I picked up my phone and decided
(34:49):
to call the number on the back and they're like,
I'm sorry, this promotion has ended. Okay, thank you guys.
Another kick to the old scrodie. Well, yeah, I laughed
and laughed, but I worked over the six or seven
or whatever.
Speaker 5 (35:07):
Yeah, what are we gonna do?
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (35:11):
That was my day.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
Merry Christmas Morning mixed Matt Harris and Liz look at
for TJ.
Speaker 6 (35:17):
Go ahead, get it off your chest.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
I'm gonna sound so ungrateful, but I'm gonna go ahead
and just put this out in the universe.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
I Anything that anyone gets you is a blessing. And
I'm so thankful to have family that loves me. But
I have the world's tiniest freezer, all right, And my
husband's brother and his family for Christmas this year, they
sent us one of those meat subscription packs. And it's
nothing but a ton of meat, and there is no
(35:44):
room in my freezer for anything else.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
There is nothing in my freezer.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
But meat, which I know, I know sounds like such
a stupid thing to get upset about. But there's nowhere
for my popsicles or my vegetables or my anything.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
It's just filled with meat.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
And sometimes you just want to pop a bag of
steam fresh veggies in there, let them go and eat.
Speaker 5 (36:08):
And that what am I supposed to do?
Speaker 2 (36:10):
Make fresh veggies for everything?
Speaker 5 (36:12):
Pull the cans out.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
There's nothing in there but meat right now, a cooler,
A cooler and some mice. I don't even eat that
much ice starting Sunday, but right, cooler and some ice
for your vegetables. You eat them. You don't eat the meat. Really,
I don't.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
Really eat very much meat. I just it's the older
I get, the less I want it.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
But like I think TJ and I would appreciate a
good steak for.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
St regifting it out because they said it in the
mail and when I when it showed up, it was
this giant box and I was like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 5 (36:39):
What did they send you?
Speaker 3 (36:40):
And then as soon as they opened it, I was
like well maybe there'll be like some sides or something
in there.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Right, Nope, just straight up.
Speaker 4 (36:46):
Beat beat Christmas. Yeah, Christmas.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Like I'm so thankful and what a blessing to have food,
Like I get that.
Speaker 5 (36:54):
I'm not trying to be one of those people, but.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
I have no freezer space.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
I have nowhere to put anything else.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Well, I said, I know a couple of guys that
would you take that meat off your hands?
Speaker 4 (37:04):
I mean, I can bring the web or grillet we
can have in George Forman.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
No, I mean I don't want to like eat my
husband's whole Christmas gift or anything like that.
Speaker 4 (37:15):
He's invited.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I got you blow it all out here like quickly.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
Yeah. But so I was just so frustrated last night
because I was like, I have I.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Have nothing to a place to put your vegetables.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
There's nowhere for anything, Like you couldn't even fit a
thing of ice cream in there if you wanted, Like
all my favorite things are not in there because it's
just me. And I told him, I was like, why
don't you cook some of that? Like why don't you
go ahead and eat some of that? It's like I
don't really feel like it. And I was like, so,
not only is my freezer full of meat, No, I
have to cook it.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
I don't want the meat. You can meat breakfast, lunch,
and dinner.
Speaker 4 (37:49):
Yes, oh.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Yeah, put it in a stocking, meat stocking.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
I sound like such a brad who's so ungrateful.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
But I just I mean, yeah, yeah, you do.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
I know, but it's just a freezer full of meat.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
I want, Yes, I I okay, put it. If someone
had bought me a bunch of vegetables and it filled
up my freezer, I would say, but uh right, I
don't want to freeze.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
And I have a freezer that's so tiny because I
have the side by side fridge freezer that like, even
when we get a frozen than No, but even we
get the frozen pizza, we'd take it out of the
cardboard box and slide it.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Okay, so's a lot of meat you got there, and
it's filling that up.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Yeah, I mean, thank you.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
They were great.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
I mean amazing for them to spend that money on us.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
But like I just you take it and sell it,
you know, at your local gas station. I've seen that happen.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
It was a little signed cardboard sign on for for Yeah,
I won't even be a meat truck.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
I would just be a.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Meat chevy, like a little meat chevy. Oh, this is
the Morning Mix Morning Max, mat Harrisliz Luda Preser tj
I said, it's National breakup Day.
Speaker 6 (38:58):
We did not break up with you.
Speaker 2 (38:59):
Hopefully you found does one hundred point nine to ninety
nine point three, so you're listening. Obviously found us in
one of those. But those are the options plus course streaming. Yeah,
we have our app.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
It does still have the little one oh seven to
nine picture on the app, but that's the correct app.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
It's gonna work. It's a gas Yeah, the picture just
hasn't changed.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
Podcast will be there too, But a couple of people
you want to shout to. And incidentally, if you are listening,
and maybe you made the change at work nine eighth
three to eight zero one zero zero nine, or as
Liz likes to say, nine eight three eight oh one
zero zero.
Speaker 5 (39:34):
Nine, how did you take my song and make it better?
You're so talented.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
We'll give you a shout out if you made the
switch with us at work. But I do have to
give a shout out to Steven Shugart, he said, diversified
recycling and rock Hill made the switch. It is in
all their service vehicles. Love you guys, girls number one
a pre set.
Speaker 5 (39:55):
Thank you Steven, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
We needed that positive comment in the And yeah, if
you just run.
Speaker 4 (40:02):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
And if you just want to, you know, randomly, go
on our social media and just give us positive comments
and let us know that you made the change. That
would really help drown out some of the other comments that.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
Getting to our self esteem. My mixed Charlotte, Yeah, my
mixed Charlotte is Facebook, yeah, Instagram, all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
And then the other thing is if you are having
some fuzzy signals, if you have an HD radio in
your car, if you do right, I think so if
you switch to the HD two for one oh seven nine,
we'll still be there, which might cover a little bit
more area than maybe one hundred point nine is yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
And I got a text from our friend Bill Bartie
from Jesse Brown's Outdoors and he said, show sounds great.
I need more of Matt and Liz there.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
All right, I'll take that. I'm taking my shirt off
right No no, no, not that cut, no more skin,
no more app okay, So I will stop keep you up.
And I mentioned a breakup day, right, Yeah, so I
started fifteen years ago. Facebook statistics said that people are
most likely to change their status from in a relationship
(41:09):
to single on December eleventh, And there was another study
from a dating app that found three and four online
daters experienced a break up during the Christmas season. Yeah,
and some people say this is like the time because
it's you're not too close to be considered cruel, but
(41:30):
it's far enough away that you can skip buying him
at present you don't have to go meet the families
or whatever.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
And then you're also stressed out at the holidays just
in general, so you're probably not the best version of
yourself at times.
Speaker 5 (41:42):
You know, slip puts pressure on a relationship.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
I will say, I personally got an argument with my
husband on the phone on the way to work this morning,
so I need to be a little nicer.
Speaker 6 (41:51):
I just talk to him. Nless would be the answer there.
Don't call him at four in the right, come on me?
Speaker 5 (42:00):
He called me.
Speaker 6 (42:01):
Well that was it.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Yah, It's it's bad. I'll send him a text later.
So yeah, I mean that's the answer there. And I've
told people before though, I don't think it matters when
you break up in December or whatever, you're gonna be
a bad guy or gal. Right, Yeah, it's just it
doesn't matter if it's three days before Christmas, two weeks
because they're good, I say, I can believe they broke
up now.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
Yeah, break up always hard, but at least you have
like holiday like time off from work sometimes that you
can emotionally work through it well.
Speaker 4 (42:30):
And it's worse to stay in the relationship when you
know you should be out of it. Yeah, you know,
just sticking around just because because holidays are coming up, Like,
that's not a.
Speaker 6 (42:39):
Good I know people that do that, right right, Yeah,
get through.
Speaker 4 (42:41):
I'm gonna wait till January.
Speaker 2 (42:42):
I want to hear them right now.
Speaker 4 (42:44):
That's not a good idea.
Speaker 3 (42:44):
See, I mean, I'm other than our our disagreement this
morning with my husband, I'm in a solid, strong marriage.
But I think the holidays would be ideal though, for
the breakup, because there's lots of food around.
Speaker 5 (42:54):
I could eat my emotions, okay, you know what I mean,
I can.
Speaker 4 (42:57):
It's kind of like a reset of the.
Speaker 2 (42:58):
Yeah, yeah, okay part do you like you don't drink,
but I would do lots of that perhaps.
Speaker 5 (43:02):
And then you know, you go into the new year,
you do the whole new year. Knew me?
Speaker 3 (43:06):
Right?
Speaker 2 (43:06):
Oh sure, yeah yeah, yeah I did have a year.
Speaker 4 (43:10):
I did get broken up with on Christmas Eve before
and it was a pretty big one. Uh but like.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
That's kind of I mean, if you don't have kids,
it might be okay.
Speaker 4 (43:19):
It did kind of work out because I did have that,
like you know, a week of doing nothing.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
Where and there's always there's always pie too.
Speaker 5 (43:30):
For some reason, there's pie at the holiday.
Speaker 4 (43:32):
There's a lot of support going on. Yeah, it wasn't terrible.
Speaker 2 (43:35):
And people have time off to hang out with you,
right yeah exactly, like, hey, come on and hang out loser,
right yeah, were you there?
Speaker 6 (43:43):
Yeah, yeah, I've been there.
Speaker 1 (43:45):
For starting your day with The Morning, Miss It's.
Speaker 5 (43:48):
The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
No, here's your latest pop.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
Up day.
Speaker 6 (43:54):
Real Estate.
Speaker 5 (43:55):
And there's some stuff you might not know about.
Speaker 3 (43:57):
A Charlie Brown Christmas, which hands down is the holiday
special every single year.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
I love it.
Speaker 5 (44:03):
Oh I could just oh play that good music.
Speaker 3 (44:07):
So it's been sixty years since this came out and
it still stands the test of time. Used to be
able to tune into CBS to watch it. That's where
it was originally. Then it ended up going over to ABC.
It's now on Apple. That's fine.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Didn't even like I was a kid, I went to
the record.
Speaker 3 (44:23):
I love it. I've loved it so much. It was
always a tradition.
Speaker 4 (44:26):
I think as an adult, I've realized I just like
jazz music. Yeah, Like I didn't really like it. I
just liked the soundtrack.
Speaker 6 (44:32):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (44:33):
I feel that.
Speaker 6 (44:33):
I did.
Speaker 2 (44:34):
I feel that.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
But when it first debuted, over half of all households
with the TV tuned in to watch it, Like, that's huge.
That's a lot of people. And everybody saw it together.
And so it was the first ever TV special based
on Peanuts, the comic strip, and it had a budget
of only seventy six thousand dollars and it was from
CBS in Coca Cola, So yeah, taking that PEPSI.
Speaker 2 (45:00):
The CBS execs didn't like a Charlie Brown Christmas.
Speaker 6 (45:04):
Here's one of the people talking about it.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
The two network executives who looked at it really didn't
like the show. They thought it was too slow, they
thought that the music didn't work, they thought the animation
was too simple. And I really believe if it hadn't
been scheduled for the following week. There's no way they
were going to broadcast that show because it was just
they had no time to do anything about it.
Speaker 3 (45:24):
I like that it does move so slow though, dance
like they do in the one scene when they're on
stage and like Snoopy's playing the bass guitar and everything,
Like I I love to do that side to side dance. Yeah,
there's no joy in your heart for this. It only
took six months to make, though, which is honestly for
(45:45):
that time, because that's how long it takes to make
an episode of like The Simpsons still at this day
and age, our technology simple but had to be drawn
by hand like that. And they wanted to originally add
a laugh track, but Charles M. Schultz was like, no,
no laugh track is going to happen here. And they
thought that the jazz music was awful, but they ended
(46:08):
up playing it and I love it.
Speaker 2 (46:10):
I love it it.
Speaker 3 (46:11):
To say that it hurt Aluminum Tree sales though, so
that was probably the end of we all went to
the real one and now we're back to the fake ones.
Speaker 2 (46:19):
And you know, he'll hear it. They'll come sing here
for a second and you can enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (46:26):
About that.
Speaker 3 (46:27):
When I was a kid, I thought the beginning of
this song was Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown hark.
Speaker 2 (46:34):
It was real awkward in church. But here's the thing.
The child actors there they were not paid. Oh they
were from Saint Paul's Episcopal Church in California, and they
had a magazine articles that they were taking a recording
studio in San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (46:49):
And when we're given ice cream for the.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
Records, there was only a bunchet of seventy six thousand
or so to get it made. But the producers made
millions especial over the years. Obviously, how about throwing these little.
Speaker 3 (47:02):
I know, hopefully they can book a comic con or something.
Speaker 2 (47:06):
Come on, I was some rocky road. It was like
the paycheck was the football.
Speaker 3 (47:12):
That The thing is though, is I don't think any
of them really went on to continue doing voice work.
And this isn't related to the Christmas special, but one
of my favorite random Peanuts facts is in the eighties,
Sally Charlie Brown's little sister, the one with the blonde hair,
I was voiced by Fergie. And then when I was
a kid in the nineties, they ran the reruns on Nickelodeon,
(47:34):
and so I always thought that was so cool that
that was Fergie the whole time.
Speaker 2 (47:37):
As a kid. I'm not going to give any and
I'm not going to get Charlie Brown a break. I
just Marry Christmas.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
Thanks for starting your day with the Morning Mix with
Matt Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (47:53):
You got to go to a Christmas show tonight? I do.
Speaker 3 (47:56):
My kid is putting on his holiday concert at his
school and I'm really excited.
Speaker 2 (48:00):
Yeah, and they're gonna be singing songs and that sort
of thing they will. Yeah. This this ki went viral.
His nine year old kid in England. He didn't really
understand the assignment for the Christmas concert. Uh, his role
was Elvis the Elf, but he didn't tell his parents
the elf part. Oh, everybody is dressed up as elves
(48:22):
in the picture that they took except for him up
amazing and the other sign on him it says elf.
But that is great, isn't it. Yeah, So you know
that's that's more memorable than if he would just one
of the Absolutely. It's funny. The kids in the parents
are like, Okay, he's gonna be Elvis. Okay, all right,
(48:45):
you know they.
Speaker 5 (48:46):
Should have called him elfish.
Speaker 3 (48:50):
But I will say this, my kid, he's in score
right now, so I know I'm not going to embarrass him,
but he will not tell me any details about anything
like this.
Speaker 2 (48:59):
It's not gonna get any better as they get to
eight teams, probably, I know, but I'm.
Speaker 5 (49:02):
Sure like that kid probably was like I don't know.
Speaker 3 (49:04):
I'm just like Elvis, you know, like, yeah, I didn't
say anything about the program because like I've asked my kid,
like what songs are you singing?
Speaker 5 (49:12):
Christmas songs? Okay, which ones you know? But yeah, but
which ones you know? Just some of them you know? Yeah,
And I'm like, what is this?
Speaker 2 (49:23):
What is this like?
Speaker 5 (49:24):
Tell me, like, give me a rundown.
Speaker 2 (49:25):
I'd like to know.
Speaker 5 (49:26):
He gave you nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing, And I'll go ahead.
Speaker 3 (49:29):
I'll go ahead and spoil it. I found out from
his music teacher he has a solo. He didn't even
tell it. He still hasn't told me it's tonight.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
I have no Well that's.
Speaker 4 (49:38):
A good move on his part, yeah, right, added pressure
on their surprised Yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:45):
And then last night he even said, mom, don't don't
sing with will you come? And I was like, what
have I ever come to one of your concerts and
turned it into karaoke? I'm not gonna sing with Like,
you don't have to worry about that, Like, yeah, I
might sing Christmas songs, but like not you're school.
Speaker 2 (50:00):
Funh Yeah, well I don't remember. We talked about Carollers
the other day and she said, if they were came
to the door, you would be singing.
Speaker 4 (50:06):
You were excited about them.
Speaker 6 (50:08):
You can't control yourself.
Speaker 2 (50:09):
Maybe that's it. I don't get you know, the songs
he's singing. I don't get to know about to be surprised, right,
I think you could probably probably if you named ten
Christmas songs, I bet you five of them are going
to be the ones, right, the old standards, right, Yeah,
I might Hearris and Liz ludablus Er TJ. My adulta
comes homes from the USC namecock World today. You know
(50:32):
for a long time she's gonna do a study abroad,

I mean she may, she may. I think you're just
her to do. I lay on the couch.

Okay, that's what you have to do as a parent.
Speaker 2 (51:32):

the eleventh of December and Morning Mixed Birthday is powered
by Mark Spain Real Estate. Yeah, n's are no Strong.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Hailey Steinfeld is twenty nine, so happy birthday to her,
and then Ryder Strong is forty six. As I've gotten older,
I've liked Boy meets World less and less. But when
I was growing up, you could not tear me away
from TGIF because I had the biggest crush on Riders
Strong and he was the bad boy.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
It's boring. That's why the whole feudalism thing didn't work out.
They got bored out of their freaking minds.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
What it's too far? No, you know, just.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Once, I would like to learn something somewhat relevant to
our lives.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
WHOA it was like so edgy in the nineties, by
the way, That was.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Him supposedly drunk real class, Yeah, next class. Yeah, that's
him out of control because he was a bad boy.
Speaker 6 (01:00):
Matt, I know, I know he wasn't he adopted?
Speaker 5 (01:03):
No, Yeah, he had a rough home life, right, Yeah, well.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Because that's because he's out next door. I remember the
big dramatic scene where you don't understand the other dad
yelled the other their fighting and I love you though
finally a guy loves me.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
I think you're describing. Mostly it comes from the nineties.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yeah, that always seemed to be a big scene that
happened I And then I'm just gonna lean strongly into this.
Speaker 5 (01:23):
Brenda Lee is eighty one.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
She made this song rocking around the Christmas Street when
she was thirteen.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
She sounds like she's sixty singing it.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Fucking to the man Business Street at Christmas.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
She does, doesn't she imagine a thirteen year old walking
up to you just talking like that, I'd.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Be like, I mean, she'd already been smokeing for like
eleven years.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
That's true.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
That was a different time, Hey mom, hang it, doell it.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
And then you know, I absolutely, just you know, love
that song.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
But then Rita Moreno is ninety four, and you and
I both get into the show tune.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
So I picked my favorite. I feel pretty, oh.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
So pretty, I feel pretty and witty and gay and
I pity any good who's in need.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
West Side Story Baby, I love that one. Yeah, real bad,
bad but in that gang of jets and sharks.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Yeah, well, once you're a jet, your jet all the way.

Together, Joe the finding.

Today's National Holidays.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
It's a National app Day, and I want to tell
you how disappointed I am. It's app like the app
on your phone or your iPad or your tablet. I
thought we were leaning into the triple dipper at Chilis.
I thought they meant like appetizers. But I feel like
you can celebrate by scrolling.
Speaker 5 (02:42):
An app and eating an app.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
There you make it like.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
A full moment, you know.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Do that?
Speaker 6 (02:47):
Do that?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
It is mixed one hundred point nine or ninety nine
point three Matt Harris, Liz Luda for your TJ.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Thanks for starting your day with the Morning Mix with
Matt Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Good morning Luda, Good morning t J. Mornay thirty six
degrees right now, I'll get to forty eight fifty three Friday,
fifty seven on Saturday, and then it's winter again on Sunday. Winter.
Speaker 6 (03:13):
Yeah, you're right, highs on the Sunday forty Well, it.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Was like nineteen or something.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
My husband's already prepared me.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
He's like, I know you're gonna be extra saucy, so
extra socks.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
It's gonna be fine, all.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Right, you won't be doing well for the next few months. No,
they just openly admit they did a survey study on
millennials and relationships and it's called the nerd normal. Somebody
one percent say nerds are sexy, okay, not educated, not capable,
actual nerds. They describe it as bookworms, dungeons and Dragons players,
(03:47):
obsessive with deep knowledge about niche topics. Yeah, they And
they say it's because millennials grew up with chaos.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
We just don't care.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Financial crisis is political volatility, burnout culture. So they want
stability and competence and someone who disappears into a passion. Uh,
nerds have depth. Well, I don't know if that's true necessarily,
because sometimes it's all they know.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Right.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, it doesn't mean it's depth just because it's a
complicated game.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah, it's not that though. It's a you find joying
what you want to find joy. And so rather than
pretending to like have the hobbies that the adults had
before us, now we're like, you know what I do
like to collect Funko Pops or my Beanie Baby collection
should be on display. I'm gonna sit over here on
a Friday night and brush the tail of my my little.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Pony and watch the Boy Beats World reruns.
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Not what I think they're talking about.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I think they're talking about more of the women be
attracted to the guys who do those things, not guys
being attracted to women who like my little pony.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Is this the big Bang theory theory?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Yeah, I guess there you go.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
It's just like all these nerds get these smoking hot girls.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Yeah right, yeah, yeah, I mean it's I mean, I
don't know. I'd like to know what the stat was
before or was it, because if you ask people, it's
one thing to say it right, it's another thing to,
you know, be the guy at the bar who's talking
dungeons and dragons.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
Right.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
It might not be in practice as much.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
As it is.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, like if you open with this
is my dungeons and dragons too, like.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
It might take pause.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
But I like to see people that are passionate about.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I'm wrong with them about it.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
I'm just not necessarily saying that.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I don't know if in practice there are people are
hanging outside that you know, the game play and stop. Yeah,
women are there, like I hope you know Doorkerson comes
out here. But that's good though, that's good for I
think that I'm a nerd in the sense maybe of
could you be a nerd and be like deep into
(05:47):
like football or is that doesn't count? I don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Football. Yeah, I think that.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
If you're that can make you nerdy involves Matthew.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
Okay, I'm gonna try to figure out how way to
be nerdy.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Yeah, you know what though, like your your hobbies are
watching sports and then true crimes, so like that, honestly.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Red Flag.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
And like the cat.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
I would feel like you probably would probably do better
if you did get into dungeons and dragons.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Yeah. Probably, You're probably right. I didn't need some help.
By the way, my true crime podcast Impact of Influence.
Check it out wherever you gets your favorite podcast. And
we have our podcast too. Yeah you still get that.
That'll be available on the website, which is mix Charlotte
dot Com Morning Mixed Matterrisless, Lota and uh, you have
(06:39):
a problem with SpongeBob.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
I know, Oh my gosh, it's because he plays his
nose like a plute and I hate it so much
in the stupid opening song.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
But the the Burger King folks, you know they have
their limited time collaboration. Maybe oh yeah, that's part of
a new SpongeBob's movie promotion. Yeah, it looked like they
have like mister as Cheesy Bacon Todds bottom bundle.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Yeah, we've already hit the drive now.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
But what happened is that these customers are now coming in.
Instead of ordering, they're playing parts of SpongeBob into the
speaker to prompt the workers. So there's a customer plays
and over the tap Krabby patty preparation jingle, which ends
in shouting preparing the Krabby patties, and that's how they order.
(07:27):
And then so that right now they they'll put them
a TikTok and the you know, the drive through person,
it's like, okay, Gabe Vindel or whatever it is, right
because they've seen it herd a ten thousand times. Uh
there's one where they play the whole uh oh, the
customer starts playing I'm a goofy goober. I guess there's
a SpongeBob song or something. So they play out all
(07:48):
these things so they'll take like a squidward saying something
and they'll play it into the thing. And these people
have just about had enough. Yeah the ten thousand times.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Yeah, they're making minimum way, come on.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I will say this though, it does give you a
little bit of job security because I hate ordering from
AI when you're in the drive through, and I bet
you AI would get very confused and be like, we
don't have crab here.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
And then also the West Coast fast.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
Food chain In and Out Burger.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Oh yeah, they've removed the number six seven from its
ticket order system, you know, like the deli number type thing,
because the payp were getting tired of it of people
every time they set it out, like I said, but
so they removed it. It's just just jumps from six
to six to six eight.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
But that's kind of be a problem. What once a day,
I know, come on.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
They're probably ordering it intentionally just to hear it.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah, yeah, but you'd have to wait, right, it's.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
The number that you go in order.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Have you ever been to an in and out though quickly? No,
it is like hundreds of people. It feels like every
single time.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
They say people wait. Yeah, so they're just clogging up
the area because they're just waiting for the six seven things.
Give us the word of the year, by the way,
and yeah, so and then there is another six number
that they've already removed. Yeah, which I would have thought
that would right, that was the good old days, right,
(09:18):
And then just one of their sing a saul on
the old innerweb because I want you not to do this.
I don't know who has pet turtles, and I don't
know who have to tell this to, but apparently people
think that if they have turtles, turtles apparently bury themselves
to hibernate. They're going out and burying their pet turtles. No,
and a self described turtle expert, it's telling people, you know,
(09:38):
don't don't do that. It's it's not really how they
do it. They kind of and they bury themselves. It's
probably not gonna go well, it may and may not,
but don't bury your turtles.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
So do you remember in the nineties, Uh, well, we
found out later. But hamsters they'll do this thing where
they'll kind of, I don't want to use the term hibernate,
but their heart will really slow down.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
And a lot of people thought that their hamsters had passed.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
I like from the tree.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Oh, they were.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Burying them and they were re emerging, and it was like, yeah, yeah,
they were putting a thing out that was like, hey,
maybe you should take your hamster to the vet to
get it checked out, just to make sure Jesus hamster
an event.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Thanks for starting your day with The Morning, Miss It's.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
The Morning mixed with Matt Harris and now here's your
latest pop.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Up in real estate.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Billboard did their year end charts and it turns out
that Taylor's Fist Life of a Show Girl is the
album of the year, Morgan Wallen is the Artist of
the Year, and Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars Die with
a Smile is the Hot one hundred song of the year.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
So they do this thing where they released their end
of the year charts.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
This is the twenty twenty five ones, and you know,
there were some other stuff that made it into it
in the top one hundred Hot one hundred songs. Tipsy
by Shaboozi made it, which that kind of rolled over
from the year before. I think, right, I.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
Don't remember, that's what time.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Yeah, and then the top two hundred albums or whatever,
it's Life of a Showgirl, Taylor Swift. I'm the Problem
Morgan Wallen, and then Sos Sizza and then in the
global songs Birds of a Feather Billie Eilish.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
I liked that one. It was a little slow though,
but I like it.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I like it. I'm a fan.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
And then top artists Morgan Wallen, Kendrick Lamar, Taylor Swift
kind of what you expect, but in the top duo
group Hunterricks made it from K.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Bob demon Hunters, demon Hunters, and.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
If we break it down by female and male artists,
it throws a Sabrina Carpenter in the mix. And then
Drake Okay, and then Best New Artist Alex Warren, which
we kind of probably knew because he's been everywhere.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Morgan wall I saw it was the most listened to
album on Apple Music worldwide.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
He had thirty seven songs on the Hot one hundred
in one week, in the first country to artist to
hit number one since Taylor Swift in O nine.
Speaker 5 (12:00):
Geez not to downplay his success.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
I feel like if K pop Demon Hunters had come
out sooner, though, they might have beat him in the
streams because that's been so huge with all the parents
and the kiddos.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
I saw this Conan O'Brien has a podcast or whatever.
But Conan O'Brien's parents died within three days of each
other last December, right, and he had a weird way
that I would do too of dealing with it. He
ended up in this text conversation with will Arnette. You know,
Will Arnett is yeah, and Jason Bateman and he so
(12:31):
will Arnette text him and basically says, sorry to hear
about that.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
That's you know, that's awful. Bl blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
This was when the dad died before mom died, and
he said, yeah, he says, but tell Bateman, I know
he did it, and so so they laughed about that.
Then all of a sudden they found will Innett found
out that CON's mom died few days later, and he
texted him and said, sorry about that. Do you want
me to tell Jason Bateman where your sister lives? You
(13:03):
know what?
Speaker 3 (13:03):
Then we all cope in different ways, and humor is
probably his best way to go.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Yeah, there's like eight million views on it on an X.
He says, he Conon explains that, you know what's weird.
I swear to God, this is how I grieve. It
was so comforting me to screw around with you guys
at that moment, and it would makes me a madman,
then so be it so? And then he wou When
he asked for her sister's address, Coon did give it
to him, but said make it look like a burglary.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
I'd be like, how dare you?
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Right?
Speaker 2 (13:29):
How dare you? But you got to know your audience
on those Yeah, yeah, but that is that is exactly
how I deal with things like that.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Yeah, and one of the quest This is an all
little segue going from something as bright and happy as
that Triture year would doesn't take a Christmas tree down
until Garth's birthday in February.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
She said she.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Doesn't put like any real rules out. Once it goes up,
they celebrate it. They keep it holly jolly. They have
a party. They invite everybody over to do Christmas cookies
and you have to bring your favorite recipe and everybody bakes.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Together and it's just so that's a great time. They
probably don't even see their tree. It's probably one of
their eight thousand rooms.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
Yeah. I figured it wasn't going down till the sun
came up.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
You go, you got trees in low places yeah, I don't.
Speaker 6 (14:12):
Even know, but yeah, there you go.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
But because car that ties together because Garth Brooks a
serial killer, we know, right.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
That is taking everybody down a hold of drabbit hole.
Speaker 6 (14:23):
That is Tom Sagur I think started that.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Yeah he did, he did.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
This is a mix one hundred point nine and ninety
nine nine point three and our phone number we have
a new one. Yeah, we do nine eight oh three
eight oh one hundred nine.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
So go ahead and try to remember that because we're
not for a couple of days. But if you like
write it down, just put us in your phone, like
when you're parked or you're stopped somewhere.
Speaker 5 (14:48):
That way you're able to join in on the.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Funds for starting your day with The Morning Mix with
Matt Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
And Google Trends. I told you a moment ago that
South Carolina google's Grinch sweaters more than Santa sweaters, where
North Carolina it's the opposite. There's only five states that
do the Grinch sweater more than the Santa sweater. South
Carolina's very grinchy, but Grinch is big this year apparently. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
I mean we saw just with the McDonald's Adult meals
the Grinch socks.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And there's also one of the like a Walmart or
a Target or something has a Grinch or I don't
know whereas there's a bunch of Grinch commercials, but they
don't Grinch.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
This year look a.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Little bit off from the the who that you see
the movies, right, yeah, definitely, and then the the This
is an all time high. Christmas villain clothing is an
all time high this year. I mean it's like way higher.
We're talking about Marvin Harry costumes. It's the home alone guys, right,
you're right, yeah, what do you I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Well, actually dressed like them when it's not the holidays.
You know, I'm just a beanie a sweater with a
jacket over the sweatshirt.
Speaker 5 (15:56):
Like that's that's a typical Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
And and the Grinch outfit, and I mean it has
shot up over the last couple of years, but this
year it's an all time high. We're loving, loving the
villains even more. Grinch door decoration all time high. Greench
socks searched over ten times more than Santa Sox.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
I think that that.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Has something to do with those McDonald's socks though, because
people were going bananas for them.
Speaker 5 (16:22):
Because I have the yellow pair.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
I wanted the blue pair, but like I was happy
to get what I got, But I saw where people
are reselling them for.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
Like really twenty dollars a pair, So maybe.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
They're searching not to necessary buy him, but to find them, to.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Find them or to resell them, or to see if
someone has a specific collar, like even if you get
on Facebook marketplace right now, that seems to be a.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Real hub for the socks.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Yeah, and then there's also people that are like, I've
got two reds I'll trade somebody a red for green,
like everybody's talking about their socks.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Yeah, I think the greench socks should be green and
nothing else. I think it's an out right yes.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
Oh no, they're curing, no no, no. There was the
green ones that were the Grinch. The red ones had
the McDonald's logo and then the Grinch. The blue ones
had the Grinch's dog that looks like a Wiener dog,
which is why I wanted the blue. And then the
yellow ones have Cindi lu who which is fine, But
the yellow ones are gonna show they're wear and tear
first because it's a light colored sock.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I've never really dove that deep into sock world. So
you yelled at me for you know, if I wear
my socks for just a few hours, I'll wear them again.
But see they wear out. You just well, I'm saving
Oh yeah, okay, if I just wear them like today,
you know, home by eleven or twelve, it's only six
hour wear or.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
Something that's pretty nasty long, too long?
Speaker 6 (17:38):
I question, you know, it depends. I'll smell them first, grench.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
If you very stink stanks dunt it is, yeah, very
sink stanks dunk. And also search interest in funny white
elephant gifts all time high.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
Can we talk about how all I've seen on social
media are the people that are showing up with the
rotisserie chickens to the white elephant.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
I hate this.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I hate it so much because one that is not
kept at a room safe temperature for you to be
able to ingest it too, those meaty juices are gonna
get on that paper.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
So I don't like that.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
I don't know it's gonna get on the carpet or
the little the little Christmas tree skirt, I don't know.
I don't like the idea of putting a rotisserie chicken
and wrapping paper and then letting someone unwrap it three
hours later.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
You can't eat it.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
You're just gonna say three hours?
Speaker 4 (18:28):
Ye, three hours?
Speaker 2 (18:30):
And room temperature, Well, you bought it hot and then
so it probably takes a lot of cool down. What
three hours?
Speaker 5 (18:38):
Maybe if you wrap it in foil first.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I don't know. That does not feel safe. You're supposed
to be funny anyway, right, I guess, but it feels Yeah.
I'd rather have that than another sinking chia pet, which
is also trending.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
Oh, I do love the chia pets, though you do not. Yes,
I do.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
I have a Sofia one. I spray painted it from
Golden Girls. I spray painted it gold It's a conversation
piece in my home.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
The this says not left or tistory chicking, not to
be left out of a room tempter more than twelve hours.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
Twelve hours, okay.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It says two. There's no way. There's no way. This
just is not you.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
This is just asking for tummy troubles, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Hours? That's hard to believe, right, No, it's not hard. Definitely. Yeah,
we'll think about turkey, right, dinner that's out for way
more than two hours.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
Absolutely, absolutely not.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
That's the last thing you pull out of the oven.
And then the other thing.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Is that he's gonna take at least an hour, probably longer.
You're not going to clean up until whatever.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Right, Yeah, but you put the jerkey up first. That
is a poultry. You're just asking, like telling.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
You're eating habits, our foul. It is true. More mix
one oun point nine and ninety nine point three. Both
those dial numbers will help you find us. One hundred
point nine and ninety nine point three.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
I'm assuming you're on one of them right.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Now, the streaming, the streaming, or you might be if
you move out and then from one of those it's
things start to get a little weird. You can switch
over to the other one. Yeah, just go back and forth,
back and forth. There you go. So, uh, let's look
a super quirky and she looked at social media eighty
seven hours a day, so you don't have to.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
They got rid of the divider, and I'm outraged. I'm
so upset about this. So the popcorn tin that has
been a holiday classic my entire life.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
I used to get the.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Popcorn tins for Christmas from aunts and uncles that didn't
know me that well, I'd buy my own and it
always has the plane popcorn, the Shutdar popcorn, and the
caramel popcorn. And you would open the tin and they
would be separated by this little cardboard divider. And over
the years it's evolved and changed.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
The tin has.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Gotten smaller, and there was still the divider, and then
there'd be a bag that you could open and dump
into each divided section.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
The divider is now gone.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
I had the bag part.
Speaker 5 (20:54):
Well, the bag part started about like eight years ago.
I think it was, I don't know, but so anyways,
now the divide is gone.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Now it's just mayhem, like they're not all blended together.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah, but how are you gonna have all three flavors
at the same time and keep regrated.
Speaker 6 (21:08):
They're in a bag, right, They're in a bag.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Yeah, I'm saying. What I'm saying is it's not like
they're all dumped loosely.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Well, but even if you went like caramel plane and
then cheddar. If you're having the Cheddar and you decide
you want to dig down for that caramel, now you're
mixing it. You're just mixing all the popcorn together and
I don't like this.
Speaker 6 (21:28):
Oh yeah, you gotta get your own divider.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
I guess I sound very angry about this, and it's
because I am.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
I don't like this.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
It's unacceptable, and I want the divider to come back everywhere, though.
Speaker 5 (21:37):
I don't know. I don't know if it's everywhere. So
if you if you know, if you've got to like.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
The idea of all of it mixed in, because you
up doing.
Speaker 6 (21:44):
That anyway, right right?
Speaker 3 (21:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (21:45):
No, but butter, cheddar and caramel, like all in one bite,
like that sounds great?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yeah, a little you can't. We're back to my you know,
I like a surprise everyone in my mouth. Yeah, so
you put it in there and you're like, whoa, there
was a cheddar in there.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Yeah. See. I like the ide you have making your
way around the wheel, you know what I mean. You
go cheddar, then you go plane, then you go caramel,
and then you just every bite is a transition bite
and I am here for it and I don't like it.
And I feel like that just one more thing where
they're like, you know, they made the tin smaller, now
they're taking the divider.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Give me my divider.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
I don't know maybe I'll go in patent like a
divider you can buy and just keep it home.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
I think it's called the bubble pieces of cardboard.
Speaker 5 (22:24):
Right, yeah, yeah, they were so perfectly perfect.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
And then also that number nine eight oh three eighth nine.
Speaker 5 (22:32):
Can I do my song?
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Nine eight oh three eight oh one zero zero nine.
Speaker 5 (22:38):
Nine at three?
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Yeah, n three eight one zero zero nine.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
If you're out there, it's just Mike gone. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (22:46):
I don't even know if anyone can hear.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Us but you. But if you tell us about that divice,
is it exists? It doesn't exist.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
Have you encountered it this year in the wild?
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Or you want too much.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Division in this country?
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (22:57):
This is the unification.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
We need the popcorn again.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
Yes, I think it's a big popcorn.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Just paying for one less thing in my tin and
then you know what else bothers me. I'm just going
to get on my little soapbox today because food is
what I get passionate about. You know, bugles, how when
you get them when you were a kid, you put
them on your fingers and you pretend that they were
like fingernails, and then you eat them off and you
always be like they don't fit on your fingers anymore
because your fingers got bad.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
Right, That's how I diagnose it on me.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Yeah, America.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Now there's some of them that are slightly flattered. There's
no consistency, you mean, like, it's.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Not just you were a kid and now you're adults.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Listen, I wore for like most recently eight years ago.
I do remember specifically being in a car ride and
eating bugles off of my fingers, and so I don't
know what happened, but it's if the magic's gone.
Speaker 5 (23:51):
There's no divider.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I can't be a lady with witch fingernails eating my bugles.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I just can't. Yeah, I don't like change are going today, guys,
Morning Mix Matt Harris is ludaprous RATEJ. We all want
to be a little more likable, or maybe not, maybe
we don't give a crap. But here's some habits that
you should do. This is a respond to compliments with
genuine curiosity. Okay, let's assume you get them, oh yeah.
Instead of a deflecting praise or just saying thanks, you're
(24:20):
supposed to ask follow up questions like what made you
notice that or what specifically stood out?
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Oh I hate that?
Speaker 3 (24:29):
That wouldn't make you more likable to me If I like, hey,
I like your shirt. If you were like, what do
you like about my shirt? And I'd be like, I don't.
Speaker 6 (24:35):
I don't think I would say it like that. That
the tone you gave me a.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Yeah don't right, but I feel like that's how it
would come across.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
But if I would say it like, oh cool, what
do you like about you like the color, you like
the design? I don't know. I wouldn't do that, but
that's I guess what they're saying.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
I had somebody when I was younger that I used
to work with that said I needed to learn how
to accept compliments because whatever they would be like, oh
I like your you know whatever, say outfit, I'd be like, thanks,
I got it on sale.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
A typical woman think yeah, And I.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Would be like, just because I'm saying it was all
sale doesn't mean I wasn't accepting it.
Speaker 5 (25:05):
I was letting you know in case you really did
like it, right.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Yeah, But it is kind of deflecting because so you're
supposed to say or what stood out? I guess if
someone said, ay, we like your shows, like, oh, what
specifically did you like about it?
Speaker 4 (25:18):
I would now that's different than like something about your
appearance or something I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Like so that is a tough one. Yeah,
remember one specific thing about each person you meet.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
I do that. Yeah, I tried to do that.
Speaker 5 (25:33):
It's never their name, but it's something else.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Usually that could be their dog's name, they're renovating their kitchen,
they love horror films, whatever it is. It makes you
seem like a memory wizard. Minimal effort and they're gonna
be feeling great about it. Sometimes I'll remember if somebody
you're the guy who likes whatever team yes, yeah, yeah,
that's probably enough. Yeah yeah, But other times I don't
have any clue. I gotta be better the the the.
Speaker 6 (25:59):
The ask about the story behind things.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
So you say, instead of a nice haircut stead of
nice county, you say, oh, what made you decide to
change your hair?
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Oh that sounds insulting.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
I understand being inquisitive and asking questions. I think people
like to talk about themselves, so you like to give
them the opportunity.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
But I think there's a different way to approach that.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
Yeah, I had I had a date ask me one
time why I had long hair, And I always thought
that was weird.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I could Okay, maybe she's saying like, maybe it has
a meaning or something.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Yeah, I don't follow any rules, you're a bad boy.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
It just felt weird to me. It did not feel
it felt like, hey, why are you doing that? You
shouldn't be doing that, so why are you doing it?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
But maybe it's just like you know why. I would
be like, what made you decide to stop cutting your hair?
Or when was the last time you cut your hair?
Would it be better?
Speaker 4 (26:52):
That would be definitely better? Cra of it? You know.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
I know you're trying to give us tips, But I
feel like if somebody said, uh, why did you stop
cutting your hair?
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I'd be like, does it look bad?
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Right?
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I don't know. Okay, that better one where they say
instead of just saying, oh, that's a great watch, saying
is there a story behind that watch? Okay that I
like that?
Speaker 4 (27:10):
I don't like that.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Then again, it's like no, I mean I don't have
a story, body, Yeah, just got.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
It on sale, let me tell you all the details,
and deflect again.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
People love sharing the background of their choices, makes them
feel seen, makes you feel like you're really interested.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
I think getting it on sale is part of that. Story.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Yeah, yeah, but you know, but that's you're giving it.
They're saying, this is what you have to ask. Oh,
so that would be like, where did you get that?
I like your shirt?
Speaker 5 (27:35):
Did you get it on sale?
Speaker 6 (27:40):
What is the return policy?
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Now?
Speaker 5 (27:43):
Why did you choose that shirt?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
It is the morning mixed or a new number because
you'll need to hear in a minute, maybe nine eight
oh three eight oh?
Speaker 3 (27:52):
You want to sing the song, don't you? Nine eight
oh three eight oh one zero zero nine.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
I think I changed ad You got a right, No,
I met the song.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Because this is the question, it's ever changing. What did
you say when you're saying sassy Rudolph? As a kid,
so I didn't realize we had different versions, but growing
up it would be rude off.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
The red nose reindeer. Reindeer had a very shiny he knows.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Like a light bop had. That's okay, And so.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
He couldn't enjoin in any reindeer games like Monopoly, which
in hindsight really doesn't make sense. I've never seen a
reindeer play Monopoly.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Have you seen him fly? Have you seen him with
with a red and shiny beeping nose?
Speaker 3 (28:31):
I have seen, but at the end you go down
in his story, what did you say as.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
A kid like George Washington?
Speaker 2 (28:41):
Like Washington?
Speaker 3 (28:42):
Apparently that changes from region to region, and not even
just like from state to state, it changes from like
town to town what people might say. And so I
posted a video asking this because my mind was blown,
because think about it, if you're outside of the United
States too, like are the yelling George Washington? And so
it turns out that people say things like Christopher Columbus.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
That's problematic.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
The next person commented and they said, like the Jackson's.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Which okay, okay, all right, little hipper.
Speaker 5 (29:15):
Elvis Presley, Okay, I.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
Don't have a ring to it.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Well, also like history, all those music acts history, but
there is history.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
I guess somebody in England told me that they said
queen Queen Elizabeth, So that like George Washington. But there's
all sorts of different answers that people have been giving
the games to.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
Yeah, but those.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Ones weren't as interested in football.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Oh, a lot of people say football.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Apparently that's big in Alabama, but I think it's related
to their colleges.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's all.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
They have to look forward to in Alabama syllables.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
What everything would have to work right, like monopoly.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
Like football, the gootball doesn't work, like parties, I guess,
I guess wouldn't work.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
So it's just so funny to me that people have
different things that they say, and I never really thought
about it. And then some people said they said Pinocchio
twice like the Lack and call you names like Pinocchio,
and then then you'll go down in his story like Pinocchio,
which seems very redundant.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Yeah, definitely, but that's because it's the chorus. It's it's
a because that's the comedy of it. Like they called
him name like Pinocchio, but the turn of events is
he also went down in history.
Speaker 6 (30:33):
So at first they're making fun of him.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Oh, but then it wraps around that's very history. I know,
I'm smart.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
So another person they said they would yell out like
the Flintstones.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Okay for the history.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
Yeah, I don't like.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
Some people said Fred Flintstone specifically.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
This person said that they said, John Wayne, you'll go
down in his story like John Wayne Pilgrim.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I guess right, eight oh three eighth one zero zero
nine nine eight o three eighth one zero zero nine, and.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Then another big one apparently was Abraham Lincoln okay.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
And then I also had a couple of people say Nixon, okay, wow,
Richard Nixon. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (31:18):
Did you ever think about it?
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Though?
Speaker 5 (31:19):
Like yesterday, my mind was so blown by this.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
I was like, wait a minute, We've been saying different
sassy things.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
And I never heard it called sassy. No me neither
never heard that term.
Speaker 4 (31:29):
Rudolph I might have made that one, okay.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
And I never heard the adding like Pinocchio or whatever
until I was way into my like thirties. Oh really,
So my husband, my husband tried to heard that.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
He said that it's because I'm younger than him, that's why,
because he said he never did that growing up.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
I never did it.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
And then I got to prove him wrong because the
lady that commented and said they said like the Jackson,
she said that she learned it in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
So I was like, for sure, well, your husband and
I are respective of the song. And it's to this
songwriter with it a classic ves.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
For starting your day with the Morning Mix with Matt
Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
New number of your staying with us, We're gonna give
it to you, not who you want to give me?
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Sing it nine Nato three Nato one zero zero nine
nine Nato three Nato one zero zero nine.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
Sure that'll get him. The thing that you saw was
something on TikTok. Somebody was talking about it. Something that
I lived as as a child. Oh and I'm still
living this life.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Anything that my kid wants at this point, I tell
him Christmas is coming, you mean, oh yeah, so like
if he wants, I mean, I'm not gonna be so
far as to go like he can't have toothpaste, but
you know, basic necessities. I don't know, maybe Mommy will
put it under the tree, like I have to buy it.
Speaker 5 (32:49):
Anyways, everything is a president at this point.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
I always whoever was doing the talking Santa or whoever
you have in your house, he I would get. As
a kid, we always got a toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoos, sometimes odorant,
the odorant, you know, stuff like so you know, an
orange in the bottom of course.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
Yeah, and then but.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
A depression was hard for a lot of the breaking
my day. But we didn't get We would get like
my brother remember one time got a giant for then
at that time, giant catch a bottle. He left ketchup,
so we got yeah, sixty four ounce hind ketch a bottle. Yeah,
and I would go to a lot of people don't
even know you get pizza in a box. Oh yes,
(33:32):
chef boy alardy pizza. Y. Yeah, I would because you
can put it's not frozen, it's just so. I guess
like it though too, So I would get that under
the tree.
Speaker 5 (33:41):
Get to make your own holiday pizza.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Well, I mean I probably didn't. They probably just took
it then and made it. So there was all kinds
of things like that you would get growing.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
I did it the other day. They gave out free
potato chips.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
Here at the radio station. Yeah, I put in a
box and I said, that's going under the tree.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
Oh yeah, Mommy's giving you potato chips for Christmas this year.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
Yeah yeah, I think. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
I thought I was doing the same thing for my niece.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
But I don't think that's unusual. I think it's always
been a thing. You get sock shoes whatever it is, right,
But you just reminded me by the way. Uh, the
folks here at Mixed we had a holiday party and
they gave you like things to fill out. You put
them in a container and I won the Moe's gift card.
Speaker 5 (34:27):
Oh yeah, thank you, I know you did.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
Yeah, And I went to Moe's yesterday. That car has
expired and I'm like, she's like, I'm not why it's working.
She's calling, like the advantage over. She's calling somebody on
the phone. So I picked up my phone and decided
(34:49):
to call the number on the back and they're like,
I'm sorry, this promotion has ended. Okay, thank you guys.
Another kick to the old scrodie. Well, yeah, I laughed
and laughed, but I worked over the six or seven
or whatever.
Speaker 5 (35:07):
Yeah, what are we gonna do?
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (35:11):
That was my day.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
Merry Christmas Morning mixed Matt Harris and Liz look at
for TJ.
Speaker 6 (35:17):
Go ahead, get it off your chest.
Speaker 3 (35:19):
I'm gonna sound so ungrateful, but I'm gonna go ahead
and just put this out in the universe.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
I Anything that anyone gets you is a blessing. And
I'm so thankful to have family that loves me. But
I have the world's tiniest freezer, all right, And my
husband's brother and his family for Christmas this year, they
sent us one of those meat subscription packs. And it's
nothing but a ton of meat, and there is no
(35:44):
room in my freezer for anything else.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
There is nothing in my freezer.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
But meat, which I know, I know sounds like such
a stupid thing to get upset about. But there's nowhere
for my popsicles or my vegetables or my anything.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
It's just filled with meat.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
And sometimes you just want to pop a bag of
steam fresh veggies in there, let them go and eat.
Speaker 5 (36:08):
And that what am I supposed to do?
Speaker 2 (36:10):
Make fresh veggies for everything?
Speaker 5 (36:12):
Pull the cans out.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
There's nothing in there but meat right now, a cooler,
A cooler and some mice. I don't even eat that
much ice starting Sunday, but right, cooler and some ice
for your vegetables. You eat them. You don't eat the meat. Really,
I don't.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
Really eat very much meat. I just it's the older
I get, the less I want it.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
But like I think TJ and I would appreciate a
good steak for.
Speaker 3 (36:32):
St regifting it out because they said it in the
mail and when I when it showed up, it was
this giant box and I was like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 5 (36:39):
What did they send you?
Speaker 3 (36:40):
And then as soon as they opened it, I was
like well maybe there'll be like some sides or something
in there.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Right, Nope, just straight up.
Speaker 4 (36:46):
Beat beat Christmas. Yeah, Christmas.
Speaker 3 (36:51):
Like I'm so thankful and what a blessing to have food,
Like I get that.
Speaker 5 (36:54):
I'm not trying to be one of those people, but.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
I have no freezer space.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
I have nowhere to put anything else.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Well, I said, I know a couple of guys that
would you take that meat off your hands?
Speaker 4 (37:04):
I mean, I can bring the web or grillet we
can have in George Forman.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
No, I mean I don't want to like eat my
husband's whole Christmas gift or anything like that.
Speaker 4 (37:15):
He's invited.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I got you blow it all out here like quickly.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
Yeah. But so I was just so frustrated last night
because I was like, I have I.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
Have nothing to a place to put your vegetables.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
There's nowhere for anything, Like you couldn't even fit a
thing of ice cream in there if you wanted, Like
all my favorite things are not in there because it's
just me. And I told him, I was like, why
don't you cook some of that? Like why don't you
go ahead and eat some of that? It's like I
don't really feel like it. And I was like, so,
not only is my freezer full of meat, No, I
have to cook it.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
I don't want the meat. You can meat breakfast, lunch,
and dinner.
Speaker 4 (37:49):
Yes, oh.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Yeah, put it in a stocking, meat stocking.
Speaker 5 (37:57):
I sound like such a brad who's so ungrateful.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
But I just I mean, yeah, yeah, you do.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
I know, but it's just a freezer full of meat.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
I want, Yes, I I okay, put it. If someone
had bought me a bunch of vegetables and it filled
up my freezer, I would say, but uh right, I
don't want to freeze.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
And I have a freezer that's so tiny because I
have the side by side fridge freezer that like, even
when we get a frozen than No, but even we
get the frozen pizza, we'd take it out of the
cardboard box and slide it.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Okay, so's a lot of meat you got there, and
it's filling that up.
Speaker 5 (38:32):
Yeah, I mean, thank you.
Speaker 2 (38:33):
They were great.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
I mean amazing for them to spend that money on us.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
But like I just you take it and sell it,
you know, at your local gas station. I've seen that happen.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
Yeah, definitely.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
It was a little signed cardboard sign on for for Yeah,
I won't even be a meat truck.
Speaker 5 (38:48):
I would just be a.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Meat chevy, like a little meat chevy. Oh, this is
the Morning Mix Morning Max, mat Harrisliz Luda Preser tj
I said, it's National breakup Day.
Speaker 6 (38:58):
We did not break up with you.
Speaker 2 (38:59):
Hopefully you found does one hundred point nine to ninety
nine point three, so you're listening. Obviously found us in
one of those. But those are the options plus course streaming. Yeah,
we have our app.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
It does still have the little one oh seven to
nine picture on the app, but that's the correct app.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
It's gonna work. It's a gas Yeah, the picture just
hasn't changed.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
Podcast will be there too, But a couple of people
you want to shout to. And incidentally, if you are listening,
and maybe you made the change at work nine eighth
three to eight zero one zero zero nine, or as
Liz likes to say, nine eight three eight oh one
zero zero.
Speaker 5 (39:34):
Nine, how did you take my song and make it better?
You're so talented.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
We'll give you a shout out if you made the
switch with us at work. But I do have to
give a shout out to Steven Shugart, he said, diversified
recycling and rock Hill made the switch. It is in
all their service vehicles. Love you guys, girls number one
a pre set.
Speaker 5 (39:55):
Thank you Steven, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
We needed that positive comment in the And yeah, if
you just run.
Speaker 4 (40:02):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
And if you just want to, you know, randomly, go
on our social media and just give us positive comments
and let us know that you made the change. That
would really help drown out some of the other comments that.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
Getting to our self esteem. My mixed Charlotte, Yeah, my
mixed Charlotte is Facebook, yeah, Instagram, all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
And then the other thing is if you are having
some fuzzy signals, if you have an HD radio in
your car, if you do right, I think so if
you switch to the HD two for one oh seven nine,
we'll still be there, which might cover a little bit
more area than maybe one hundred point nine is yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
And I got a text from our friend Bill Bartie
from Jesse Brown's Outdoors and he said, show sounds great.
I need more of Matt and Liz there.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
All right, I'll take that. I'm taking my shirt off
right No no, no, not that cut, no more skin,
no more app okay, So I will stop keep you up.
And I mentioned a breakup day, right, Yeah, so I
started fifteen years ago. Facebook statistics said that people are
most likely to change their status from in a relationship
(41:09):
to single on December eleventh, And there was another study
from a dating app that found three and four online
daters experienced a break up during the Christmas season. Yeah,
and some people say this is like the time because
it's you're not too close to be considered cruel, but
(41:30):
it's far enough away that you can skip buying him
at present you don't have to go meet the families
or whatever.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
And then you're also stressed out at the holidays just
in general, so you're probably not the best version of
yourself at times.
Speaker 5 (41:42):
You know, slip puts pressure on a relationship.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
I will say, I personally got an argument with my
husband on the phone on the way to work this morning,
so I need to be a little nicer.
Speaker 6 (41:51):
I just talk to him. Nless would be the answer there.
Don't call him at four in the right, come on me?
Speaker 5 (42:00):
He called me.
Speaker 6 (42:01):
Well that was it.
Speaker 2 (42:01):
Yah, It's it's bad. I'll send him a text later.
So yeah, I mean that's the answer there. And I've
told people before though, I don't think it matters when
you break up in December or whatever, you're gonna be
a bad guy or gal. Right, Yeah, it's just it
doesn't matter if it's three days before Christmas, two weeks
because they're good, I say, I can believe they broke
up now.
Speaker 3 (42:23):
Yeah, break up always hard, but at least you have
like holiday like time off from work sometimes that you
can emotionally work through it well.
Speaker 4 (42:30):
And it's worse to stay in the relationship when you
know you should be out of it. Yeah, you know,
just sticking around just because because holidays are coming up, Like,
that's not a.
Speaker 6 (42:39):
Good I know people that do that, right right, Yeah,
get through.
Speaker 4 (42:41):
I'm gonna wait till January.
Speaker 2 (42:42):
I want to hear them right now.
Speaker 4 (42:44):
That's not a good idea.
Speaker 3 (42:44):
See, I mean, I'm other than our our disagreement this
morning with my husband, I'm in a solid, strong marriage.
But I think the holidays would be ideal though, for
the breakup, because there's lots of food around.
Speaker 5 (42:54):
I could eat my emotions, okay, you know what I mean,
I can.
Speaker 4 (42:57):
It's kind of like a reset of the.
Speaker 2 (42:58):
Yeah, yeah, okay part do you like you don't drink,
but I would do lots of that perhaps.
Speaker 5 (43:02):
And then you know, you go into the new year,
you do the whole new year. Knew me?
Speaker 3 (43:06):
Right?
Speaker 2 (43:06):
Oh sure, yeah yeah, yeah I did have a year.
Speaker 4 (43:10):
I did get broken up with on Christmas Eve before
and it was a pretty big one. Uh but like.
Speaker 2 (43:16):
That's kind of I mean, if you don't have kids,
it might be okay.
Speaker 4 (43:19):
It did kind of work out because I did have that,
like you know, a week of doing nothing.
Speaker 3 (43:24):
Where and there's always there's always pie too.
Speaker 5 (43:30):
For some reason, there's pie at the holiday.
Speaker 4 (43:32):
There's a lot of support going on. Yeah, it wasn't terrible.
Speaker 2 (43:35):
And people have time off to hang out with you,
right yeah exactly, like, hey, come on and hang out loser,
right yeah, were you there?
Speaker 6 (43:43):
Yeah, yeah, I've been there.
Speaker 1 (43:45):
For starting your day with The Morning, Miss It's.
Speaker 5 (43:48):
The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
No, here's your latest pop.
Speaker 3 (43:52):
Up day.
Speaker 6 (43:54):
Real Estate.
Speaker 5 (43:55):
And there's some stuff you might not know about.
Speaker 3 (43:57):
A Charlie Brown Christmas, which hands down is the holiday
special every single year.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
I love it.
Speaker 5 (44:03):
Oh I could just oh play that good music.
Speaker 3 (44:07):
So it's been sixty years since this came out and
it still stands the test of time. Used to be
able to tune into CBS to watch it. That's where
it was originally. Then it ended up going over to ABC.
It's now on Apple. That's fine.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Didn't even like I was a kid, I went to
the record.
Speaker 3 (44:23):
I love it. I've loved it so much. It was
always a tradition.
Speaker 4 (44:26):
I think as an adult, I've realized I just like
jazz music. Yeah, Like I didn't really like it. I
just liked the soundtrack.
Speaker 6 (44:32):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (44:33):
I feel that.
Speaker 6 (44:33):
I did.
Speaker 2 (44:34):
I feel that.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
But when it first debuted, over half of all households
with the TV tuned in to watch it, Like, that's huge.
That's a lot of people. And everybody saw it together.
And so it was the first ever TV special based
on Peanuts, the comic strip, and it had a budget
of only seventy six thousand dollars and it was from
CBS in Coca Cola, So yeah, taking that PEPSI.
Speaker 2 (45:00):
The CBS execs didn't like a Charlie Brown Christmas.
Speaker 6 (45:04):
Here's one of the people talking about it.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
The two network executives who looked at it really didn't
like the show. They thought it was too slow, they
thought that the music didn't work, they thought the animation
was too simple. And I really believe if it hadn't
been scheduled for the following week. There's no way they
were going to broadcast that show because it was just
they had no time to do anything about it.
Speaker 3 (45:24):
I like that it does move so slow though, dance
like they do in the one scene when they're on
stage and like Snoopy's playing the bass guitar and everything,
Like I I love to do that side to side dance. Yeah,
there's no joy in your heart for this. It only
took six months to make, though, which is honestly for
(45:45):
that time, because that's how long it takes to make
an episode of like The Simpsons still at this day
and age, our technology simple but had to be drawn
by hand like that. And they wanted to originally add
a laugh track, but Charles M. Schultz was like, no,
no laugh track is going to happen here. And they
thought that the jazz music was awful, but they ended
(46:08):
up playing it and I love it.
Speaker 2 (46:10):
I love it it.
Speaker 3 (46:11):
To say that it hurt Aluminum Tree sales though, so
that was probably the end of we all went to
the real one and now we're back to the fake ones.
Speaker 2 (46:19):
And you know, he'll hear it. They'll come sing here
for a second and you can enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (46:26):
About that.
Speaker 3 (46:27):
When I was a kid, I thought the beginning of
this song was Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown hark.
Speaker 2 (46:34):
It was real awkward in church. But here's the thing.
The child actors there they were not paid. Oh they
were from Saint Paul's Episcopal Church in California, and they
had a magazine articles that they were taking a recording
studio in San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (46:49):
And when we're given ice cream for the.
Speaker 2 (46:51):
Records, there was only a bunchet of seventy six thousand
or so to get it made. But the producers made
millions especial over the years. Obviously, how about throwing these little.
Speaker 3 (47:02):
I know, hopefully they can book a comic con or something.
Speaker 2 (47:06):
Come on, I was some rocky road. It was like
the paycheck was the football.
Speaker 3 (47:12):
That The thing is though, is I don't think any
of them really went on to continue doing voice work.
And this isn't related to the Christmas special, but one
of my favorite random Peanuts facts is in the eighties,
Sally Charlie Brown's little sister, the one with the blonde hair,
I was voiced by Fergie. And then when I was
a kid in the nineties, they ran the reruns on Nickelodeon,
(47:34):
and so I always thought that was so cool that
that was Fergie the whole time.
Speaker 2 (47:37):
As a kid. I'm not going to give any and
I'm not going to get Charlie Brown a break. I
just Marry Christmas.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
Thanks for starting your day with the Morning Mix with
Matt Harris and Liz Luda.
Speaker 2 (47:53):
You got to go to a Christmas show tonight? I do.
Speaker 3 (47:56):
My kid is putting on his holiday concert at his
school and I'm really excited.
Speaker 2 (48:00):
Yeah, and they're gonna be singing songs and that sort
of thing they will. Yeah. This this ki went viral.
His nine year old kid in England. He didn't really
understand the assignment for the Christmas concert. Uh, his role
was Elvis the Elf, but he didn't tell his parents
the elf part. Oh, everybody is dressed up as elves
(48:22):
in the picture that they took except for him up
amazing and the other sign on him it says elf.
But that is great, isn't it. Yeah, So you know
that's that's more memorable than if he would just one
of the Absolutely. It's funny. The kids in the parents
are like, Okay, he's gonna be Elvis. Okay, all right,
(48:45):
you know they.
Speaker 5 (48:46):
Should have called him elfish.
Speaker 3 (48:50):
But I will say this, my kid, he's in score
right now, so I know I'm not going to embarrass him,
but he will not tell me any details about anything
like this.
Speaker 2 (48:59):
It's not gonna get any better as they get to
eight teams, probably, I know, but I'm.
Speaker 5 (49:02):
Sure like that kid probably was like I don't know.
Speaker 3 (49:04):
I'm just like Elvis, you know, like, yeah, I didn't
say anything about the program because like I've asked my kid,
like what songs are you singing?
Speaker 5 (49:12):
Christmas songs? Okay, which ones you know? But yeah, but
which ones you know? Just some of them you know? Yeah,
And I'm like, what is this?
Speaker 2 (49:23):
What is this like?
Speaker 5 (49:24):
Tell me, like, give me a rundown.
Speaker 2 (49:25):
I'd like to know.
Speaker 5 (49:26):
He gave you nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing, And I'll go ahead.
Speaker 3 (49:29):
I'll go ahead and spoil it. I found out from
his music teacher he has a solo. He didn't even
tell it. He still hasn't told me it's tonight.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
I have no Well that's.
Speaker 4 (49:38):
A good move on his part, yeah, right, added pressure
on their surprised Yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:45):
And then last night he even said, mom, don't don't
sing with will you come? And I was like, what
have I ever come to one of your concerts and
turned it into karaoke? I'm not gonna sing with Like,
you don't have to worry about that, Like, yeah, I
might sing Christmas songs, but like not you're school.
Speaker 2 (50:00):

Speaker 2 (50:09):
Maybe that's it. I don't get you know, the songs
he's singing. I don't get to know about to be surprised, right,
I think you could probably probably if you named ten
Christmas songs, I bet you five of them are going
to be the ones, right, the old standards, right, Yeah,
I might Hearris and Liz ludablus Er TJ. My adulta
