Speaker 1 (00:00):
Makes one of something night, Good day, Hello Liz, Luda,
Hey and TJ.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Good morning.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
What are you freaking out over there?

Speaker 4 (00:08):
Man?

Speaker 2 (00:08):
I mean there's a lot to freak out about. I
sat in the parking lot for ten minutes because it
was pouring, and somehow I decided, Hey, Liz, let's wear
white pants today. Why was that the choice I made?
I don't know. And so finally I've run in here.
All of my belongings are soggy, and I like post
our videos and things on social media. It's a big
thing for me. And uh, I'm logged out of my Facebook.

(00:30):
It keeps giving me an error message. It won't let
me back in. I'm so thankful that you are also
having issues. So maybe there's like an outage or something.
Because I got I got scared, I got hah.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
She was panicking.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Andy felt like there's nothing we could do.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Yeah, you guys aren't helping me, Like, what do you
want me to do? There's nothing I can do to
help you, and you know what you did to help me.
You want to own account And the same thing happened.
I felt a little reassured, but still, if you enjoy
watching our videos, which you should, you should go and
watch them every single day. It might be a little
late today.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Yeah yeah, go through uh you know the mix, uh
Facebook page, Instagram, all that sort of thing. And then
we also have our own Liz Luda. Yeah, and Matt Harris,
which is sometimes hard to find. There's a million of us.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Our Instagram has a video up this morning. We got
that on there, but not our Facebook.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
I know it is very if you lost Facebook for
a day, would you just lose your dang mind?

Speaker 2 (01:21):
As long as I knew that it was like an
issue with Facebook that they hacked into your system. Yeah,
Like I'm afraid that, like people are going to start
getting those really creepy like requests for me or click
this think or you don't yeah yeah yeah, So if
you get any suspicious messages for me today, please do
not open them, just as a safety precaution.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Have you when's the last time you went like twenty
four hours without social media? Who was it before the
invention of social media?

Speaker 5 (01:47):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:48):
I do I do that kind of often?

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Oh you do?

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:51):
Really?

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Yeah, like all like over Christmas and stuff like that.
Really yeah, because I'll just schedule posts.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Oh yeah, yeah, I mean I don't think it's You're
unusual if you didn't. I mean, I'm not necessarily call
you out. I think most most people probably don't go
a couple of days without social media.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
I like casually open it, but like I won't. Yeah,
it'll just be out of habit and I'll be like, oh,
you don't need that.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Yeah, I'm not sure that I've gone very many days
without you know, looking at it. Yeah right, Like I
don't think I've gone a whole weekend without looking like
me not necessarily, like I said, just scrolling once in
a while. I'm not deep into it, but I don't
think I can't take a lesson. I went like, yeah,
it's been a few longshore glancing at it.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Yeah, right, it.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Would have been when we had like our Christmas holiday.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Yeah, you're able to put it away.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
But it's like two days I didn't touch my phone,
your phone period. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Wow, that's amazing.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
I use let me let me phrase that. I use
my phone as a camera because like my kids memories
and stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
But like other than that, no, wow, I don't I know,
I haven't done that. Yeah, I definitely haven't. Oh it's
good for you, Oh yeah, definitely, I'm not not not
saying it's not. I'm sure it is, but I like
I for a lot of things in the morning, I
look at sports scores or news or something or whatever.
It's not we're addicted to it. It's just the habit
of like dude phone the old days, you'd get the

(03:09):
newspaper in the morning. True, right, I mean a lot
of times I'm just looking at some sports scores or
highlights or whatever.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Yeah, right, so is that? I mean the only thing
I ever paid attention to in a newspaper was the comics,
So like, do you want to read a comic? Probably
in a lot a long time. So I I think
I'm okay. Honestly, I think I do better sometimes when
I have no idea what's going on?

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Oh yeah, I can. I ignore the political world for sure,
and just.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
In general everything, and then I'll just be like, oh, oh,
aliens are really good. That's good. Good morning, Harrison, Liz Luda.

and I had no complaints. There's no marriage at well
oh yeah, right, okay, Well, I mean Susan Olson is
sixty four. That is Cindy from the Brady Bunch. I'm

(04:48):
gonna go ahead and step to the side and Mac
go ahead and tell your Susan Olson's story.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Oh, just one morning did a radio show.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
She was on it, and we started doing shots brighton
early throwing back to Kila, like five point thirty in
the morning, and it got pretty uh, pretty blurry after that.
I just I remember sharing a taxi with her to
get her back to her hotel.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Well, the next time you watch The Brady Bunch and
you see little Cindy, the youngest one with the pigtails,
just remember Matt and her guy, gay guy.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
We got a little.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Tipsy together, little tipsy, a lot of tipsy. Also celebrated today,
Sarah Brightman is sixty five. She is Christine from the
Phantom of the Opera. Her ex husband's Andrew Lloyd Webber,
and so he wrote the musical version of Phantom, so
he kind of knew from the beginning he was going
to cast her as the role. And she's got crazy
good voice. She has a big noness that you're ready,

(05:51):
and it just keeps going and going. I'm gonna go
a little higher. I'm I'm a musical theater person.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
But I did not like Phantom of the Opera. You know, yeah,
I did not like it.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
I was originally introduced to the story by Wishbone the
dog on Babs, and he did a great job selling it,
so I like it. It's good stuff. Magic Johnson is
sixty six. Rusty Wallace is sixty nine, NASCAR Hall of
Famer and Jack Harry sixty nine, and I best know
her as the mom on Sister Sister, and sometimes you know,

(06:24):
she just she just really, you know, was fabulous.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
It's perfect to just dance that night away and it's
wrinkle freethel you be's fat and when you make that
wall of shame, you'll call him morning after, And with
this dress, it will be a morning after.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
She like designed dresses on the show. Can you ever
meet a woman named Jackie and not say jack Kay?
I don't think so.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
It's impossible, right, Yeah, even.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
As I like to pronounce her name, now, I'm like
jack Kay. I know I have to. Danielle Steele is
seventy eight, taking up tons of room on bookshelves in
the nineties, and then Steve Martin is eighty and he's
done so many amazing things with his career that I
feel like the only way we can honor him is
with a muppet and a banjo. Yeah it was okay,

(07:08):
but I think you missed a note here.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
I think that was your note. That last note was
you please?

Speaker 2 (07:11):
I haven't missed a note in three years.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
Yeah, you know, for like three seconds.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
But the frog the only one feuding with Steve Martin.
It's a good documentary about Steve Martin that was on
for a while.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
I find it. It's really good, look.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
For I've never seen that one. Yeah, I do appreciate
his banjo playing. And then finally, it is National Creamsicle Day,
which I think is such an underappreciated flavor.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
That's good, but I would never pick it.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
I I don't think I've had one in like twenty years.
But now that I'm thinking about it, it's all I want.
Yeah if yeah, like when you.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
Go and get popsicle, you're probably not picking creamsicle, but
you know it's good.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Yeah, but it's probably not the one you're picking. Weird.
You're right, I'm going to have a creamsicle. I'm gonna
celebrate this holiday.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
What was your go to with the ice cream truck?

Speaker 2 (07:57):
So I'm really lame. I loved slushies. It was always
a blue raspberry slushy. I never chose the like ice
cream on a stick, push up, the orange. Always like
the one that was like ice cream on a stick
that like looks like it's rolled in cookies. Oh yeah,
the strawberry short cake one, chocolate one.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
Yeah, yeah, the chocolate one because I was a strawberry
my brother was a chocolate one.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Okay, yeah, maybe they called it the bubblegum eyes though,
because they are so wonky when you took the package off.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
I can't handle Therris Liz Luda out of Lawns, South Carolina,
Like that's the upstate, I guess.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Preer Greenville able to imagine.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Two miners are facing charges as their officers said they've
broke into railroad facilities and caused the derailment. The two
broke into the Carolina Piedmont Railroad and CSX Transportation Railroad
between five and eight and they got in there and
they started up an engine that was connected to two
others and drove the three engines around the yard. Oh,

(08:59):
the chief police chief said they learned how to do
it from YouTube.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
What you learn how to wow these days? I mean,
let's just be honest. Yes, I've fixed a washing machine
one time, and I should not have that skill set.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
That's the scene. They didn't stop there. They drove onto
the rail line heading toward Greenville on their way back.
Though things didn't go according to plan. The track switched
after they went past it. Oh, so when it came
back they ran into the cars that were on the
same line. Oh so the closet with the parked railroad
cars caused the derailment and damage to one of the cars. Uh,

(09:34):
you know to police say that stunt might sound like
something out of movie, but the consequences are real. Uh yeah,
of course can be very dangerous. Uh Not the the
companies themselves aren't dangerous, they say. But not knowing what
you're doing and driving an engine around.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Damn and not like checking the schedule knowing who's gonna
be on which track, Like this is very scary stuff
because you never know what's on those those different train cars.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Yeah, and they don't stop on a dime when they collide.
I collide that, he says. The miner's been charged with burglary,
second degree grand larceny over ten thousand dollars, milicius, damage
the property for ten thousand, wilful destruction of railroad property,
injury to railroad, blah blah blah blah. They're in custody
the Juvenile Justice Department.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
I think of as those poor parents, like, could you
imagine getting that all? And they listen, you can't do that,
you can't do that. But they were just like on
summer vacation, they like randomly saw YouTube. You know what
I mean. I'm like creating a whole backstory. By the way,
I am prior knowledge of the story. Whether they're good
kids are bad cads, we don't know, but just like
being the parent that's like, I'm sorry, they committed a

(10:37):
federal crime with a train, right, and there was a
derailment and there's how much damage is like, oh my god.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
They took a train for a joy ride. It's bad
enough if you like they took my car, right, yeah? Yeah,
which you did? How dare you okay?

Speaker 2 (10:54):
I did? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (10:55):
Tej Didi never got a train.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Well, YouTube didn't exist when I was in high school,
so true. Yeah, because it's hard to imagine that they can.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
You can get in there, like you think there'd be
some right or security or do you take the keys out?

Speaker 3 (11:09):
What do you think?

Speaker 2 (11:10):
I'm advisor?

Speaker 6 (11:12):
Yeah, like you just get the coals started, right, Yeah,
just shovels. That's what I've seen from cartoons, exactly.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
Right, he Liz Luda.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
It spends hours and hours hours on social media, except
for now because Facebook is down.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
Bring it back up. I'm not even gonna touch my phone.
Let me just let me just put it on the
other side of the room. There's no need for it.
But the big thing that's been trending on TikTok for
the last couple of days are people trying to figure
out am I acutie patuity or a batty? And some
people are self identifying in some in other cases they're
asking people, Hey, what kind of energy am I giving?

Speaker 3 (11:46):
So it's that's what they explain. What that you explain
what they are.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
So if you go and look up like the slang
definition or whatever, A batty is confident, stylish, attractive, and
very self assured. So like a battye, they don't need
your help. They can do it on their own right.
A cutie patuity is cute, charming, endearing, all those things.
And so what's happening is there's a lot of cutie

(12:09):
patuities that are emerging saying, you know what, I've wanted
to be a battie, but I embrace my cutie patuity
nature and I am a cutey patuti And so I
don't know, I thought it'd be fun. What what what
are you? Are you a cutie petuity or a battie?

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Well, I mean.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
It's many and women.

Speaker 3 (12:28):
I guess I got to be a cutie patuty.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
I give you more batty energy. I would give you
batty Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
So I don't know.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
You say confident, right, yeah, but like you're confidence is
not like out loud. Oh okay, like you you like spiral.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, okay, I see what they're saying.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
You might not know that I'm spiraling on the inside. Yeah,
nobody knows across is confident.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Yeah, but you're like, that's right, it's like one hundred degrees.
I'm going to go for a run. What's that.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Okay, I'm going.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
To get my Hello fresh meal or whatever it is
delivered to my house and I'm gonna make it myself.
Like yeah, okay, energy.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Yeah, because I'm definitely because I wasn't thinking cutie petuity,
but I was leaning towards the confidence threw me off.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
TJ's cuty petuity energy.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Probably, we just got to put that out there. Yeah,
you look, he's a cuty energy is off true chill,
mellow yeah yeah, like happy happy yeah yeah yeah, because
that's good pint.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
I'm not a happy guy.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yeah, that's off like like like silent vibes, you know
what I mean, like, don't talk to me.

Speaker 3 (13:31):
So then you're a batty.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
That's the thing. I think. I am a baddie who
is cuty petuity presenting because I tried, I tried to
self identify across is confident? Oh do I in some ways?

Speaker 7 (13:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, yeah, definitely.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
But we know you're not.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
But you across it. I mean, you wouldn't dressed like
that if you aren't confident, right.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
It's true, solid solid, all right, yeah, and I'll take that.
You don't have to. I have energy, That's right.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
You would know, so you would you would have went
the other way.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
No, I think that I like charming, not curling, okay,
just like kind and maybe a little bit on the bubblier.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Side, okay, a little bit.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
And so I I thought I was a battie, but
then I didn't want to say it because then, like
I don't know, I didn't want to be that person's like, yeah,
that's right. And then if it is like no, you
are there, So you want something in between? Is there?

Speaker 1 (14:24):
There should be something in between, is what you're saying.
Maybe not everybody's in one or the other.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
Yeah, but I think right now we've only got to
to to choose from, so I know one for you, Yeah,
but it's all right, And then can I mention my
other thing really really good? I'll do it really quickly.
So I am a septic shock survivor, I feel like
this is very important. There is a nationwide recall on
a lot of different soaps from the company Derma right,
and it is got a bacteria in it called Burkeholderia capecia,

(14:53):
and it's resistant to antibiotics. If you are not somebody
who's immuno compromised, it's probably not going to bother you.
But if you you are, they're saying it could lead
to life threatening injuries such as sepsis. And I can
tell you that one of the products I had in
my shower and had to throw away. I cannot remember
where I purchased it, just know that some of them
have been sold in this area. So google it. So

(15:15):
pre call Morning Mix better in the morning.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
It's the Morning Mixed with Matt Harrison Liz Luda MIXX
one seven nine.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
You need to do this with your spouse to make
the relationship strong. Gossip gossip gossip gobels that couples that
gossip together stay together. Couples were special devices, greed other
conversations recorded throughout the day. Fourteen percent of their entire
day was taped, and researchers found we spend an average

(15:44):
of thirty eight minutes a day gossiping. Twenty nine those
minutes gossiping with your sick other. So they're the biggest
partner in crime, and it thinks they think that maybe
the gossiping brings us closer because it's like emotional bonding
and reinforces we're on the same team. We're in this together.
And it doesn't matter if it positive or negative gossiping.
Oh even negative gossiping with one's romantic partner on the

(16:06):
way home from a party, you know, you get like, oh,
you see so and so. We're back from a family
thing or whatever, could signal the couple's bond is stronger
than with the friends at the party and could prolong
the fun experience you had because you're talking about what
happened at the party, what happened with the family.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
So gossip not always bad.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
No, does it count if it's like you're gossiping about
reality TV show characters, because if so, I do this often.
Otherwise I'm saying I'm a little worried about my marriage then,
because I don't. We don't. We're not gossipers, me and
my husband. You don't talk about your families with each
other and anything like that, like big happens or something

(16:45):
really annoying. But I wouldn't say it's on a daily basis. Yeah, yeah,
just if like somebody does something that really frustrates me,
you know what I mean, or vice versa for him.
But like we're not wes speak positively of people with us.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Yeah, it doesn't matter if it's positive gossip or negative. Gods,
it's God just talking about people.

Speaker 6 (17:05):
I think too much of that negative though, that can
really bring down the mental state of both of you.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Yeah. Yeah, but I think.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
That you know, you go to the you leave it,
let's say, leave a party or something, or leave a
family of band. There's always that little bit of part
of the right now the law, Yeah, for sure, so
and so.

Speaker 6 (17:22):
But when it's every conversation you have, oh yeah, is
now that's just and that will and especially if you're
not the instigator of it and you're basically listening to
this over and over again, Yes, that ends up.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Being a drag to you. Yes, sure, it's supposed to
be gossiping. I guess the idea is of gossiping together, right,
not like just one person, you know, bitching about everything
and the other person's like okay.

Speaker 6 (17:43):
All right and having to defend people at times it's
like uh yeah, they say.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
The idea is you want to be like create this,
we're on the same team thing, so you're I would
imagine the idea is that you're agreeing with the god
stuff like it's right, and it's never I'm sure most
of the time it is just like something you saw
that happened, right, yeah, because it says negati over positive
doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
Okay, yea, because usually we're just talking about the food
when we leave, or like if it was a game night,
like hey, did you see how well I did.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
Miscompetitive?

Speaker 2 (18:11):
Right? Like I about their day?

Speaker 5 (18:14):
Right?

Speaker 1 (18:14):
What happened to work today? Oh blah blah blah, So
and so did this, So it's right. Never, yeah, you
know that that's gossip. That counts as gossip. Yeah, okay, yeah,
so uh go ahead, and gossip. I don't know about
gossiping about people on reality TV is the same, I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
But if it's on a show you're watching together. Yeah,
maybe I can see that. We watch a lot of
stuff together. And then like I do the deep dives
and I'll be like I went on their Instagram and
I saw their story and this was in the background,
so you know they're lying on the show Real Housewives Gossip. Yeah,
I still like that.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
I'll ask the the people who did the study. Does
that count?

Speaker 4 (18:49):
It's The Morning Mixed with Matt Harris and.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
Here's your latest popa beat.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
It's all te Swift, all the time.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
I know so much Taylor news. So last night was
her appearance on the Kelsey Brothers podcasts. On it, she
shared the cover, the track list, and the release date
for Life of a Show Girl, and one point three
million people watched live wow, so much so that it
ended up going like black the screen did, and then
it got cut and they had a technical error because

(19:18):
there were so many people watching it, and they had
to say we'll be back shortly.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
They were in an hour and forty four minutes into it.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
Yeah, and then they were finally able to get it
back on. Everybody could watch again, and there were so
many fascinating things that we learned from it. So it
is her twelfth album, It's Life of a Showgirl. It
is already available for pre order, and we knew something
was coming because there were like these locks and these
keys and stuff all over her social media beforehand. There's

(19:44):
a limited amount of four different CDs, each with a
different cover and accessory like a necklace or keychain, which
of course there is. It's coming out on October third,
so we're not too far off. There's not any bonus songs,
she said, it's something that she already knows exactly what
she wants on it. She's been wanting to make it
for a long time. There are twelve songs on this album,

(20:07):
and twelve songs you shall get. She said. She chose
the orange color because it felt energetic, as her life
has felt, and it was kind of like what's going
on behind the scenes in her inner life during the
Aras tour. And I'm so excited about this because Taylor
said her goal for the album was to create quote
melodies that are so infectious that you're angry at it,

(20:28):
and lyrics that are just as vivid, but crisp and
focused and completely intentional. And she went on to say
it's a lot more fun, upbeat pop excitement and a
complete one eighty from a lot of the songs on
Tortured Poets for Sure, which I love a poppy tailor.
I'm gonna be very honest, like she's gone on a

(20:49):
journey with Evermore in midnights. I'm excited to see some
pop come back though. And then she did this album.
While on the Aras tour, she talked about how she
would get three days off, like in the middle of
her tour, she would fly to Sweden, she would record
what she could get done, and then fly back to
whatever the next city was that she was performing in,
which is insanity, like the ability to just I just

(21:15):
non stop perform.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah, but I mean it's also a little easier than
flying commercial, that's true.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
Yeah, the plane's gonna wait for you. You're gonna be
able to set.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
Through all the stuff you get on it.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
You can sleep on there, you can write, you eat
on there, you can write on there, you can play
on there and whatever.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Yeah, probably way better snacks too, And she said it
was kind of the album theme is what was happening
to her on stage? Uh, you know, so that's like
a big thing. And she said she's got rules for
Easter eggs for fans that they always point to her music,
they are never about her personal life. So don't use
any of the Easter eggs you're seeing to try to
gas like, oh is he going off her balls? You're

(21:51):
gonna have to leave it alone. Everything that she's putting
out there is about her music. And then she also
wants everyone to know that she's currently obsessed with making
sour dough bread. It takes about sixty percent of her
time now. And if you remember, Selena Gomez had her birthday,
like I don't know, a couple of weeks ago, maybe
a month at this point, and what did she send
her some of that homemade sour dough bread. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
Yeah, So it's true that she's.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
We know it's out there that she's actually doing it.
And Taylor, I would like your starter if you'd like
to send me Will I will buy the limited edition
that comes with the charm necklace or charm bracelet if
you put it on your website, it is I will.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
I'm interested to see the the podcast numbers because I
have the YouTube numbers.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Well, that YouTube, the last like check in that they
like officially did, had over eight million views already. Really,
so it's still climbing, climbing, climbing.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
And they got a whole bunch more subscribers too. They
already had a couple of million subscribers, which is amazing.
But yeah, and not just the YouTube, so the podcast,
the audio part.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
I'm gonna yeah, it'll be interesting to.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
See Spotify and Apple Music and all that.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
Yes, yes, it's gonna be It'd be nice if you
had a spouse to get pop on. And yeah, just
by talking to you make you a gazillion dollars, right right, right,
let's do that. And just a real quick note. Joe
Jonas Uh, he was on the Hot Ones verses we
eat the Hot Stuff and the guy says, you know,

(23:16):
read the latest entry in your notesapp out loud and
he picks it up and he says, read camp Rock three.
No for me, maybe a third movie in the franchise
is in the works. Nick put his drink down, looked
up in surprise, crew laughed, Kevin chuckled, Oh that's a
pretty good one. Joe seem unfazed. The crew continued to laugh,

(23:37):
and he goes, sorry. Disney. So camp Rock debuted Disney
Channel in two thousand and eight, and yeah, that was
right when my kid was right into it.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
I was at Camp Rock multiple times.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
I'm excited for camp Rock.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Yeah, Taylor Swift stuff all over the place. And if
you want to know what your Tailor Swift song is,
is that what it is?

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Or yeah, so there's something the Taylor's of track list, which,
by way, this is brought to you by Mark Spain
and all that good stuff. But what you do is
you take your birthday month, and then you take your
birthday day and you look it up in whatever album
and song that corresponds to. Is how you find your track.
And the great thing about Taylor Swift is she has

(24:18):
so many versions of her albums that for most of
the months, you're good. So your birthday is October twenty eighth,
so you go to the tenth album. The tenth album
is Midnights. Now you're the three Am edition of Midnights.
And the twenty eighth track is Dear Reader.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Okay, I don't write the song, but I don't know
any of it, but I would write a letter to
somebody who reads because I don't.

Speaker 2 (24:41):
You're probably the most lack luster I think TJ's and
I fits our personalities more TJ. Because you are September
twenty first, so that would be the ninth album, which
is Evermore and the twenty first song Yours is Coney Island. Okay,
I don't know that. I don't know like hot Dogs. Yeah,
that's hot Dogs come on roller Coaster. Yeah, so you

(25:02):
get a face value, okay, and then mine really fits
me because I'm March eighth. So the third album is
Speak Now eights song is never Grow Up, which I
lived by that mantra every time. Okay, there you go,
here's the millennial in denial.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
Now we know you.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
What do you collect again? Versus is the big one
Beanie Babies Lisa frank items and the Beanie Babies isn't active.
I just can't. I can't part with them. I have
a lot of collections anything that's Goose themed that goes
in the kitchen. The late eighties early nineties was a
ribbon fine line between collecting right and just hoarding. I

(25:39):
also have a lot of the Burger King glasses from
the nineties that you had to pay extra like two
dollars when you got a meal, the Disney edition ones.
I keep them in tubs in the garage.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
Okay, so what wow are you as weird as these celebs.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
Some of them are weirder, which I'm really surprised by.
And they're more expensive, probably celebrities. Oh yeah, Well so
Tom Hanks owns more than three hundred vintage typewriters. Yeah, yeah,
And he says he types letters on them and then
gives them his gifts. Not the typewriters, the letters that
he types switched. I am that's a lame gift. H Well,
I mean, I'm sure he writes a very heartwarming note.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
It's not like just like Hi, I'm Tom right, you know,
hopefully you would like, because you always say you want notes,
handwritten notes.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Now when you're that rich, it's more like, what do
you remember when I was in toy story, I'm Tom Hanks. Ha.
Johnny Depp has an enormous Barbie collection, including limited editions
like Beyonce, Elvis and Lindsay Lohan. But the part that
is devastating about that is he uses them to improvise
scenes with his kids, which means they're out of box.

(26:43):
How can you be a collector and not keep them
in big condition. Reese Witherspoon has a huge collection of
antique embroidered dresses, jackets, and accessories. That's just having clothes,
isn't it. Yeah. Ron Stewart has a massive model trained
city in his home. Now we're talking, Yeah, okay, you
want weird weird? Nicholas Cage collects shrunken pygmy heads and

(27:05):
haunted properties. You got. Penelope Cruz has an obsession with
coat hangers, and she collects them in different shapes, sizes,
and designs. That is bizarre a word, different designs. Amanda
Seyfried from Like Me and the Girls and all that
he collects taxidermied animals.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
Yeah, that's kind of weird creepy, but I guess we
were like, but it'd be cool, like if.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
It was a really unique animal maybe or something. Oh sure, okay,
oh that's one we already knew. But Elton John he
owns fifteen thousand pairs of sunglasses. Yeah, yeah, that's got
to kill her record collection. Angelina Jolie has a collection
of knives, yet again, not too surprised on that. Martha
Stewart collects baskets, and she's done it for so long

(27:49):
that she has a shed on her estate that's dedicated
specifically to housing them.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
I know people that were in the baskets the longer
burger basket.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
Yes, that was so huge and now they're not worth anything.

Speaker 3 (27:58):
I don't think the Ohio they have the big giant whatever.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
You have a big get a picture with. Yeah, no,
well you've seen them all the time and thrifting. Oh yeah,
they're like humbles, you.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Know right, Yeah, I had diet of a ton of humbles.
But yeah, no, it didn't really pan out for her,
didn't like for her death. Matt Harris, Liz Luda, producer
DJ question.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
Should moms and or parents get special accommodations in the workplace?
So the internet's kind of torn apart. It started with
a video of this woman who's really frustrated because she'd
been at a place of employment and she left every
day around fifteen to twenty minutes earlier than everyone else,
and it is because she had to be able to
pick her kid up in time and her workplace. After
like a year of this came back and said, hey,

(28:43):
we can no longer do this because other people that
aren't able to leave at the same time are complaining.
And so the internet kind of got torn apart where
people are like, well, yeah, if you allow this for
one person, you should allow this for all people. Why
should everybody else have to sit there? But then the
other side of the internet is like, don't have villages anymore?
All right, if you're a working mom, you got to

(29:03):
go and pick up your kid. You got to pick
up your kids. So now you what are you not
supposed to have a job. How do you facilitate this?
How do you change the hours? Like what do you do?

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Yeah, I mean if it's something like fifteen minutes. First
of all, I would never complain.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
I do my thing. I really care what he does.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
If it's a situation like the one person was saying
that the mom only has to come to the office two.

Speaker 3 (29:23):
Days a week.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
Oh yeah, where she has to come in four days
a week or whatever it is. Yeah, that's something you've
got to negotiate out of the gate or something, right.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
Because I think whatever you were hired as you know
what I mean, or like that was some contract negotiation whatever,
Like you can be frustrated that they don't have to
come in as often as you use that as your
tool later on down the road when you get the
chance to negotiate and be like, hey, but I get
I mean totally get where they're coming from.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
And I think.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
You shouldn't. I don't think you should get special accommodations.
Like let's say you have a rule or whatever, and
then you have a kid at the same place and
now they're saying she only has to come in one
once a week. I can see why other people be like,
what's the deal on that? Yeah, definitely, But the management
should be.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
Like I think management in general, not ours.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Ours is great here, I know what I'm saying, but
they should be more flexible in like, hey, are you
doing your job or not doing your job? We don't
care how you do it, where you do it, how
much time you spend here or whatever.

Speaker 6 (30:25):
Right in my business, if they're getting everything done and
I'm not having to pick up the slack that they're
dropping in that fifteen minutes, yeah who cares who? But like, yeah,
you know, but there there may be a habit of well,
just using that as kind of an excuse. Yeah, Like
I've got a kid, and then like, well can you

(30:46):
take care of this for me? You take care of
this for me, And then that starts piling on to
the people with out kids or with older kids or whatever,
and that's when it becomes a problem.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
You're dropping off your work on other people. Yeah, Hell yeah.
So I'm gonna go ahead and preface this but that
I am an imperfect human who has who's learned and
grown as I have gotten older. And I'll tell you
back in my youth, I used to get so mad
at it. I would get really frustrated because there was
somebody specifically I worked with who had a kid and
I did have to pick up their slack. And I
remember a conversation complaining about this multiple times with my sister,

(31:19):
and I was like, I don't understand. Why should I
have to work more? And I even went so far
as like when my husband was a police officer, he
would always, uh before we had a kid, volunteer to
work the holidays so that people with kids could get
the day off, and I remember getting mad at him,
like no, what about So now I'm in a different

(31:40):
I have grown. I am a better human.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Thought, and it is fair to think that way if
they're doing it consistently, if it is a situation, well
my kids got to do it whatever, that's right. Yeah,
that would never be a problem.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
But now karma, whatever you want to call it, has
paid me back multiple multiple times with things like my
kid's bus not showing up to take them to school,
or like my kid getting called from the school and
me having to leave work to pick him up. Like
I have learned. I have learned my lesson. I spoke
very much but out of turn in my twenties and
was a kid. I was like, oh, life got substantially

(32:15):
harder once the kid was involved.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
I wasn't justify you dumping work on somebody.

Speaker 6 (32:19):
Right, consistently, because you you don't do that when when
the emergency has come up, You're not just like, hey,
can you take care of all this these recordings?

Speaker 2 (32:29):
You don't do that.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
Every once in a while.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
Of course we'll do for anything, even if you didn't
have kids and your dad's sick or whatever. Yes, exactly,
but that's consistent. Then you have a right to complain, Right,
I got work just because you have a kid.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
That's not right.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
That's gonna build resentment regardless, Like yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Because flip flop it and the person was like, oh,
you gotta do my work because I got to go
home and take care of my cat. Right, and they
did it every day every day, Right, you'd be like,
I don't want to do your.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
Work at hide sight though, Like I was abroad in
the morning.

Speaker 4 (33:00):
It's the Morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz Luda, I'm
mix having nine.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
It's the Morning mixed Matt and Liz. And who's this
It's Micky Misty.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
What is your thoughts on this?

Speaker 2 (33:12):
Accommodations for moms and parents?

Speaker 7 (33:16):
I was the same as Liz, Like I worked with
parents that would be leaving, running out the door at
the end of the day, and I'm like, why do
I have to stay? Why is it fair that I
have to be the one here late every day because
they have something to do. But now I'm a parent,
I see the other side, So I think that we
should give a little bit of grace. And it's depending

(33:37):
on the situation. But you know, everybody, why why should
you be PENDI because I have kids? And why should
I be penalized because I choose to have a family.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
So like, I see both sides. You know what the
real issue is management? Now, the management where I work now,
I don't we're previously talking about like the place I
worked in my twenty which I whatever that that was
the issue was them not creating a situation in a
system of fairness.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
Yes, yes, And if you do it if you're not
passing a lot of a lot of work to somebody else, right,
that's the key.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
Yeah, then right, yeah.

Speaker 7 (34:14):
And I'm even in a situation now where my daughter's
in middle school and I have to take my lunch
to go pick her up and take her to where
she needs to go and my whole that's my whole
lunch hour. But I'm doing that because I don't want
to inconvenience my coworkers, because it's not their fault either.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
So that's hard.

Speaker 7 (34:32):
It's hard for parents now.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
So we don't have a village. I've heard about the
grandparents in a village back in the day, Where the
heck are they?

Speaker 3 (34:41):
Yes?

Speaker 7 (34:41):
Yeah, yeah, they don't live near me.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
So meet me either.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
I didn't have those built in babysitters around either. Yes,
And sometimes Dad just don't get the you just looked
at the same way with the moms and I'm going
to pick up my kid or something sometimes right.

Speaker 7 (34:56):
Well, And then my husband we both worked the same hours,
and I actually work with several people, whereas he's usually
by himself or with one of the persons, So it's
easier for me to take that time and do what
needs to be done. He helps, went he can, but I.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Get you all right, Thank you, appreciate the call. You go,
momy bye. I'm also a mom and I'm gonna be
working this Sunday. Yeah. By that, I'm throwing the first
pitch out at the Charlotte Night's game. And it's a
family fun night, and it's Princess Night, and it's gonna
be really, really great. And we have your chance to
win four tickets.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
Yeah, four pack for you and the kids the Princess

Speaker 1 (35:40):
Mixed Matt Harris, Liz Luda, Liz throwing out the first
pitch at.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
The Charlotte Knights game on Sunday.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
It's also Princess Day and night at the Night's game
on Sunday, and we've got tickets and Lauren and Morrisville
has got the tickets.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
Hi, Lauren, Hi, how are you?

Speaker 3 (35:56):
We are great. We'll see you there.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Sunday, but we're gonna make you jump through a little bit.
Whop okay, okay, Now, Liz knows nothing about sports.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
I'm not very sports issue.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
When she's sort of that first pitch, you should wear
a helmet and be safe, Yeah, even in the stands.
So I'm gonna ask her a couple of baseball questions
and you will guess whether she was right or wrong. Okay, Okay, Okay,
So Liz, the Minnesota baseball team to the Minnesota what Vikings?

Speaker 2 (36:21):
Lauren?

Speaker 3 (36:21):
Is that true or false?

Speaker 2 (36:23):
That's true?

Speaker 3 (36:24):
No?

Speaker 2 (36:25):
No, I.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
In Minnesota Twins. Minnesota Twins. The football team is the Viking's. Okay,
I'm gonna give you.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Don't believe I'm as confident as I sound.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Okay, there's two baseball teams in Los Angeles?

Speaker 3 (36:40):
Can you name them?

Speaker 2 (36:41):
The Dodgers in the Angels?

Speaker 3 (36:46):
True or false? Lauren?

Speaker 2 (36:47):
I think that's true.

Speaker 1 (36:51):
All the marbles, I'm gonna made three three people, Okay,
only one of them is a baseball player.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (36:58):
Is it Kelly Trapuka, Bryce Harper or Alonzo Morning?

Speaker 2 (37:03):
What was the first one?

Speaker 3 (37:05):
Kelly Tripuka.

Speaker 2 (37:06):
I can't pronounce their name, so I feel like I
haven't heard their name before. So they would probably be
playing sports if they were famous for anything.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
So you're saying Kelly Tripuka.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (37:14):
Is she right or wrong?

Speaker 2 (37:16):
Lauren? I have zero clues, but I'm gonna say she's right.
She is wrong, But I'm still giving you the ticket at.

Speaker 3 (37:26):
Yes you are.

Speaker 1 (37:26):
Bryce Harper is the baseball player Alonzo Morning, Kelly Tripuca.
We're old Charlotte Horney.

Speaker 7 (37:33):
Morning, Charlotte Hornet. But I didn't know.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
The first you knew, Alonzo.

Speaker 3 (37:37):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
Pryce was a panther, Nope, he's a Philadelpha Philly. Is
there a panther named Bryce? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (37:43):
Probably, I don't know, No, I don't Yeah, Bryce Young
the quarterback, Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
The quarterback.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
I thought that was the country music star Bryce Young?
Right right? Whatever is a Bryce? That's a yeah? I
don't know.

Speaker 6 (37:56):
It sounds like a country sounds like the newest country star.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
He only does anyways, Chan's the one again tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (38:03):
Yes, yes, Yes, morning mixed. Matt Harris, Liz Luda and
you're playing rock paper scissors.

Speaker 3 (38:10):
What do you usually go with? Liz scissors?

Speaker 2 (38:13):
Uh? Rock rock?

Speaker 1 (38:15):
Well, this is a survey. Thirty four percent of people
usually go with rock, twenty three percent said scissors, twenty
percent said paper.

Speaker 3 (38:25):
However, I went.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
Into the thing to find some other things about it,
and uh, women are still most likely to throw rock
according to this survey, but scissors is number two, where
guys number two is paper. So oh, and then I
saw another survey found that said women are throwing likely
to throw scissors.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
But you're you're there, so it's there.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
Was that trying to remember where if you compliment somebody's
shirt or something about them as you're playing rock paper scissors,
they're more likely to shoot scissors. Oh really, Like tried
it out with a bunch of people in the building
and then they all got sick of trying to play
games with me because they didn't know what I was doing.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
Yeah, but so yeah, so a lot of times people
are going to be throwing rocks, so you might want
to go paper.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
Okay, now nod and uh, yeah, I go paper because
I'm not switching my.

Speaker 1 (39:07):
Game flipping a coin. Are you more likely to call
heads or tails? Survey said what?

Speaker 2 (39:13):
I think? The survey said tails, But I always call heads.
I always call tails.

Speaker 7 (39:18):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (39:18):
Fifty nine percent said heads?

Speaker 2 (39:20):
Really?

Speaker 3 (39:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (39:22):
What is there is a rhyme?

Speaker 3 (39:22):
Right?

Speaker 2 (39:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (39:24):
You in tail?

Speaker 7 (39:25):
No?

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Oh, what is it? Anyway?

Speaker 1 (39:28):
I think I always go tails, But almost sixty percents
to go ahead.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
So that's uh, if.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
You're choosing a number between one and ten, thirty six
percent clear.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
Winner by far is seven seven. That is correct. Yeah,
I always go too because I feel like nobody's going
to go that low. I feel like if you say
one or two, they're least likely to guess it. And
that's just based on as a kid, when my mom
would make us pick a number, which, honestly, who knows
if she was lying or not. She could have changed it,
but yeah, she never chose low numbers.

Speaker 1 (39:57):
One percent of people said they're go to number is one?
Oh really yeah, and two percent said ten. Yeah, so
if you want to guess wrong, if they're thinking it,
you could go with one or nobody. Nobody ever picked
one in ten, okay, which is I guess you're right.
I don't think I would ever say.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
That's why. I like, if I told somebody to pick
a number between one and ten, I'm always going to
pick one or ten. Then it's easier to figure out
who one. I don't have to do any quick math.

Speaker 3 (40:22):
Yeahh like who's closest? Yeah, yeah, you're right, exactly right? Yeah?
Between so used to seven is like, yeah, go.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
To I feel like everybody says seven. And then if
your answer was like, well, I don't know how many
numbers off? Is that from that? Like, you're good if
it's a one.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
Or ten, they're remotely the most lately there is. Uh,
it's I mean it's way far away. Thirty six percent
say number seven. Uh, then twelve percent say number five
or say five. I guess eleven percent said six.

Speaker 2 (40:49):
So there you go.

Speaker 3 (40:50):
No, you know now you know?

Speaker 2 (40:51):
Nine percent said I'm not sure. Well, just to answer
the just pick one, be sure about something.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
I mean, I'm not sure. I really probably I'm not.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
I always making it, but if so would serve me,
I'll say, I say right, never have some backbone people.

Speaker 2 (41:05):
Alright, morning mixed Matt and Liz.

Speaker 3 (41:07):
Who's this?

Speaker 2 (41:08):
Hi? I'm victim, Hi victim, question about sorry good? I
had a question about the between you one and ten.
Technically between with me, you could only pick two through nine,
between zero and eleven. You had siblings growing up, didn't you.

(41:28):
I feel like you've really negotiated and argued this one out. No,
I've never thought about it a minute. But you know,
if you say you live between.

Speaker 3 (41:39):
Cherry and Maine, that's true, you don't.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
Live on Cherry and you don't live on Maine.

Speaker 7 (41:45):
You live between them.

Speaker 1 (41:46):
That's that was a really good point. Maybe that's why
only one percent of people said one two percent ten
because they're like ticul literally yeah between what That is
very good point, that's solid.

Speaker 7 (41:57):
I had never thought of it before.

Speaker 5 (41:58):
I guess my accounting brain is.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
How would we word it then that we would say,
pick a number between zero and eleven.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
From one to ten, pick a number ten. There you go,
you go, You're smart. Thank you, Vicky. Thanks for starting
your day with the Morning Mix.

Speaker 4 (42:15):
It's The Morning Mixed with Matt Harris and Lizzeth Banel.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
Here's your latest pop.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
Up day and pop is powered by Mark Spain Real
Estate and it's all abou z about t Swift.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
Yeah. So Taylor Swift was on the Kelsey Brothers podcast
last night and they're saying that she broke the internet
because in real time, there were one point three million
fans watching it live and at one point, like all
the screens went black and then they posted on social
media we'll be back shortly, and eventually the stream just
got cut off because it just got overwhelmed by how

(42:46):
many people were joining Since then though, on YouTube, it's
had well over eight million views, and she dropped a
lot of information about her new album, so we know
it's the twelfth album, The Life of a Showgirl. She
let us see the album cover, which it's kind of
scary looking to me because it says the life of
a Showgirl and then she's dressed like a show girl,

(43:07):
but she's in a I don't know if it's a tub.
It's like water, but it also looks kind of plastic y.
It looks scary to me.

Speaker 3 (43:13):
It looks scary to me, but you know, we look
at different things.

Speaker 2 (43:17):
Yeah, yeah, we are, yeah yeah, yeah yeah. But anyways,
people are very very excited for it, and it's going
to be coming out on October third, so we're getting
very close to it. But right now it is already
available for pre order. She has shared that there will
not be any bonus songs. There are no other songs coming. Okay,
so a lot of her other albums she's like had

(43:37):
additions that she's added to them, gone back, other songs,
things from the vault, things like that this is It.
There's just the twelve tracks. She said she chose the
color orange because it felt energetic and how her life
felt at the time and what was going on behind
the scenes and her inner life during the Aras tour,
and she said it was just electric and vibrant. Her
goal with this album was to create melodies that are

(43:59):
so infectious that you're angry at it. Oh, you'll get
to more like shake it off vibe. I'm so excited. Yeah,
she said it's going to be a complete one eighty
from a lot of the songs that were on the
Tortured Poets for sure, because she said it's going to
be very fun pop excitement, so tortured the title of
the Yeah, it's true, that's true. And then I don't

(44:20):
know how she did this, but she recorded this album
while she was on the Aras tour in Europe, so
I guess it's not as far of a flight. But
she said she would perform a show and whatever, and
then when she would get three days off, she would
fly to Sweden, go to a recording studio there work
on the album, and then fly back to where her
next location was not like doing an almost two year

(44:40):
tour itself wasn't enough, like overwhelming work, and she said
the melodies are very crisp and intentional, and it's about
what was happening to her on stage. And then she
did let us know all of the Easter eggs she's
leaving are about her music. It is not about her
personal life. It is never her personal life, So she
doesn't want us speculating like, oh, is this song over

(45:03):
here about the Kelsey's? Is this song you know? Oh?
Is she getting married? Oh? People will still do it,
but yeah they will, but that's not what it's about.
And then also her last thing she shared us with
I'll shared with us is that she is obsessed with
making sourdough bread. She said it takes about sixty percent
of her time of her life now and I like that.
I'm here for the sourdough era as somebody that appreciates it.

(45:24):
And not that long ago she gave Selena Gomez some
sourdough bread for her birthday, so we know that was
a tailor crafted loaf.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
Does she take sourdough on the road with her?

Speaker 2 (45:32):
I hope. So, I mean you gotta at least bring
the starter with you.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Yeah, as you said this, this episode, it broke a record.

Speaker 3 (45:40):
Do you who had the previous record?

Speaker 1 (45:42):
Most have listened to episode No, it was Kylie Kelsey's Life. Wow,
Swiss episodes are past Kylie at eight point six million
for a September twenty twenty three episode, like Kylie was
on right episode like the Kelsey Brothers.

Speaker 2 (46:02):
Oh, I thought it was Kylie's own podcast, because like Taylor,
if you want to get along at the holidays, you're
gonna have to go on Kylie's podcast. Yeah. Well, Kylie's
does in the top ten numbers.

Speaker 1 (46:12):
Yeah, yeah, but Kylie had eight point let's say eight
point six million when she was on their episode, and
she broke that within twenty four hours, and they talked
about it. I guess on there, Kylie's like, I'm so
happy for it. I'm glad I'm not number one on
there anymore. And they went on to say that she
loves playing with the Kelsey kids. They've four kids, I think, yeah,
or they've a five year old, four year old to

(46:33):
two year old to four month old. Can you imagine
Aunt Taylor Swift's coming over?

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Uh and so yeah. I mean, I guess they're a
little young to right, they don't understand the scope of
the scope of it. Yes, right now, But if you
had like a ten year old and all of a
sudden you're dating.

Speaker 2 (46:49):
Well, right, you fel like if they're traveling and they're like,
why why is Ann Taylor getting in a suitcase to
travel from one location to the other? You know what
I mean? Like she used to hide and those boxes
and stuff so that nobody would get paparazzi pictures of
her from the house to the car. Oh, even on
her concerts, there's all these things where she used to
be putting. It looked like they were stage hands, just

(47:09):
pushing equipment to the stage and Taylor is hidden in
the box. Oh, I got you so, like could you
imagine being seven and be like, why is he a tailor?
You know, twisting up like a pretzel? Lookit in a
box to get out of the house in the morning.

Speaker 4 (47:21):
It's a morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
Ludo, Liz.

Speaker 3 (47:27):
Why are we rebels?

Speaker 2 (47:29):
Because you never check out of a hotel? You just
walk out?

Speaker 3 (47:32):
Ye how every time?

Speaker 1 (47:34):
And I saw that uh stand up guy do something
on it and jen Z is saying, only old people
check out one hundred percent.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
Well, I'm an old person. Go ahead and call me Nana.
I don't think there's ever been a single time I've
stayed in.

Speaker 1 (47:45):
The hotel and I haven't checked out in the last
I mean it's only been like five years probably that
I started just walking out.

Speaker 2 (47:51):
Yeah, very few years ago.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
You do it, but now there's no reason they got
your card, you already paid whatever, Just get back out
of there.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
I want to make sure there's no charges on the
card that are going to go through that are not me. Well,
you can argue that someday down the road. I don't
want to have to get on the phone with customer service.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
I'll be there, mess up. They don't mess up, no,
very rarely. And you know, unless you're like charging by
I mean there's some exceptions. Maybe you're at like a
Disney hotel and you bought a bunch of merchandise and
you're on your room or something like some kind of
places where it's a lot going on. Maybe even if
you're buying a bunch of uh room service or something.
Maybe right, but even then you get the bill, you

(48:27):
see it. But a lot of times they slip the
bill for the whole stay overnight in the morning.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
I think nicer hotels than men.

Speaker 1 (48:36):
Even like a Marriott is going like a fancy, fancy
come on it is courtyard.

Speaker 2 (48:44):
But the other thing too, is like I want to
let them know when I'm checking out, because what if
that room is going to be used that evening. I
want to let them know that they can have it
cleaned and done that way that if that person comes early,
they're able to check in early. They're not going to
do that anyway.

Speaker 6 (48:56):
They're on a schedule every they have this room, that room,
right room, they're just working down the hallway.

Speaker 2 (49:01):
I've ever been knocked on the.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Door, like when you're still there and they're like ready
for clean I'm like, yeah, it's not quite eleven or
whatever yet, right, I got ten.

Speaker 2 (49:08):
Minutes, yes, and I'm taking all of that ten minutes. Yeah.
I want to make sure they know you can go
ahead clean that room out. We're good, we're out, We're
out of here.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
I feel like I don't think they're even going to
tell anybody, no, the checkout persons, not even to call
room servers proudly, especially if.

Speaker 2 (49:23):
They like probably have like something on the computer and
it like shows now that this room is vacant or whatever.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
Right, But I don't want to wait in line either.
A lot of times definitely happen to line.

Speaker 2 (49:31):
Well, I will be honest, and so many people are
rebels like you. There's not really a line but no,
And a lot of times there's like a box upfront
to put your key in, which encourages that. So they
want you to just drop your key off and leave.
So I check out and then I drop the key
and walk out. It's just there so you don't forget
to hand the key over.

Speaker 1 (49:50):
I ay, I often don't find a hotel key in
my pocket, but yeah, home for sure.

Speaker 2 (49:54):
I know. I used to get so paranoid about that.
I thought I was gonna get charged for the key
until somebody was like, no, they just rea they like
remat progress.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
Yeah, it's just a yeah, I know, there's no way
I'm checking out, no way, no way.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
Yeah, I can't believe you don't.

Speaker 6 (50:07):
Unless now, if I am ordering room service or something
like that.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
Maybe maybe I would. That sounds like I would probably would. Yeah,
oh my gosh, that way.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
You know what, You're also the same person that had
a recurring thing that was getting charged to your credit
card and you had to get to the bottom of
it after what two years of its showing up everything
mon Yeah, yeah, yeah, So I feel like maybe I'm
following the finances very closely.

Speaker 3 (50:33):
Yeah, I'm not great as finances.

Speaker 2 (50:35):
And we are talking Ashville again with Mickey. How are you?

Speaker 3 (50:38):
