As soon as the round is over there. They're supportive.

don't see that. But yeah, a lot of the guys
are all buddies, and I'm.

Speaker 6 (02:02):
Yeah, I'm so boring. I slept.

Family came and checked on me. They were worried.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
And let me see it, just like put the mirror

Speaker 6 (02:20):
They were joking about. They were like, I had to
come make sure you're still breathing. Okay, she's good, She's good.

That would that would be my parents whenever you'd sleep
in as a kid or teen. Yeah, they're downstairs like, oh,

join us. We thought you were dead.

Speaker 6 (02:40):
Yeah, it's like, yeah, it's basically that was my husband.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
But like when I left work on Friday, I got
out to the car and I was like, why am
I waddling so much like waddling happens.

Speaker 6 (02:49):
And it wasn't until I sat down in.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
The car I realized, literally the entire day, my shoes
were on the wrong foot.

Speaker 6 (02:55):
So when I thought I was lacking.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
The arch support, it was actually the arch on the
outside to my foot.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Pushing me forwards.

Speaker 6 (03:03):
I like literally was like, well, that explains that.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
I just thought I was really struggling about the kind
of shoes you wear.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Right, you can't get away with.

Speaker 6 (03:12):
It, right, but a wide footed lady. Okay, they're made
for special fee.

But this is probably my favorite.

Speaker 1 (03:57):

She went on to do private practice and I I
couldn't put any anyways.

Speaker 6 (04:55):
I have a clip go. It means you'll be coming
with me. Nice to meet everyone. I'm doctor Addison Montgomery.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Can you must be the group that's been screwing up
the program?

Speaker 4 (05:08):
And that's a throwback to the first season when she
showed up on the show and Meredith was in love
with Derek, and when she approaches, she goes, oh, you
must be the internnuts, and she.

Speaker 6 (05:18):
Uses a similar phrasing.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
That I wasn't gonna use, but it's an iconic line
in the series.

Speaker 6 (05:23):
And she's just fabulous.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
My daughter's name is Addison, and people like, oh, you
named it after Gray's Anatomy, But I didn't watch Grey's
Anatomy and my kid was before or like pretty close.
Here's all right, yeah, but if anybody says to her
you graised it, She's like, no, never saw.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
It, don't know.

Speaker 6 (05:39):
Well, she's a strong character. I always liked her.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
Marie Osmond is sixty six, Sammy Hagar.

Speaker 6 (05:46):
Is seventy eight, and then Paul Simon.

Speaker 4 (05:48):
Is eighty four, and listen, there are things that I
should know, all right. I did not realize that Paul
Simon was half of Simon and Gar.

Speaker 7 (05:56):
No.

Speaker 6 (05:57):
I am one hundred percent with you right now.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Until yesterday I was pulling audio, yeah, and I was
like what he no, No, really yeah, because I was
like Paul Simon, I know the name, but like, what
song does he even have? And then I landed on
you can call me al and as somebody that played
saxophone and like a pet band, it would like play
at basketball games and college and football games and high

(06:21):
school and all that.

Speaker 6 (06:23):
This was this is an iconic song to us.

Speaker 8 (06:25):
If you would be that can be alone, so you
would play that, Yeah, just play that, And I honestly
I was kind of disappointed with the real version.

Speaker 6 (06:44):
I was like, I think it's better as a pep tune.
You never heard the real version?

Speaker 3 (06:47):
No, wow, because you guys are the same age, so
I just think it's an age thing. But you're well
aware of it.

Speaker 5 (06:53):
Yeah, I've heard that song my whole life, like it's everywhere.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
Well, yeah, I've heard it everywhere, but I've never heard
that version. And then you dropped the little fact I
watched that music video like three times because I was like,
this is kind.

Speaker 6 (07:03):
Of cringe, right.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
That was great.

Speaker 4 (07:07):
You let me know it's Chevy Chase and I was like,
that's Chevy Chase in there.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
You've learned a lot Chase.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
Also, just so you know, for future reference, Michael Jackson
is from the Jackson five.

Speaker 4 (07:19):
That one I know, Okay, but I went on a
whole musical journey yesterday, So thank you for that.

Speaker 6 (07:24):
Paul Simon, and.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
I read where he uh it was based on a
real life thing where he was at a party and
some famous person I don't know know him though, called
him al the whole time. Oh, they called his wife Betty. Oh,
so that's where it comes from. This guy called him
and so he's like, okay, you can.

Speaker 4 (07:42):
Call me out, you know what, you can call him
al indeed, because you know what, I wouldn't recognize him
walking him walking back on the street cam or Chevy apparently.

Speaker 6 (07:51):
And then finally, you know, we got a big national
holiday today. It's a National Note broad Day.

Speaker 4 (07:57):
And I think we can all celebrate that, bring us
together and celebrate in no week.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
And I'm getting close and closer to eating one.

Speaker 4 (08:03):
So I celebrate every single day when I get home.

Speaker 6 (08:06):
Sometimes if I can't wait in the car, it's.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Matt Harris slows Luna.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
It's your TJ guy in Oregon named Peter Higginbotham.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
So it's a funny name for a funny story.

Speaker 3 (08:16):
Had his ninety six nineteen ninety six Toyota Camery hot
wired and stolen last year. The twenty nine year old
car wasn't exactly the picture of health. That even had
a bumper sticker on it that said, quote, the book
value of my car is when Baja blast. About a
month later, the car and its thief turned up and
the vehicle was a mass. The insurance company declared it
totaled and totaled me in seventeen hundred dollars and.

Speaker 6 (08:38):
A Baja blast.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Well.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
A thief was named Shazzari Walter, and she was charged
with an authorized use in possession of a stolen vehicle,
both pelonies. Peter asked for the judge to drop the
charges against her in exchange from Mountain.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Dew Baja blast to honor the bumper sticker.

Speaker 3 (08:56):
The judge eventually agreed and told the defendant, you worked
out a smoking hot agreement. Peter got his Baja blast.
Didn't like it. He said, I'm not a big soda guy.
I'm a little sit to see you, a little pineapple e.
But maybe it was better if I was beating the taco.
Peter's still fine with the deal, though, he said, you
want to see someone.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Go to jail over this.

Speaker 3 (09:13):
Prosecution was not happy about the side deal because she's
had prior convictions.

Speaker 1 (09:16):
But she told the judge's working to get her life together.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
So yeah, but he got his Baja blast, which is ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
Yeah, that's a very Oregon story. I can say that
as someone who once lived there. That is a very
Oregon story. Every piece of that story.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
Just lines up perfectly right from beginning. Car bumper sticker,
get somebody out of trouble. Yeah, and this real quick
from Tampa. Guy arrested for attempting to rob a bank
because his mom turned him in beautiful. The Sheriff's office
reported that the suspect, thirty three yeld aarre and Spencer
and her truest bank to mad him money from the
teller by implying he had a pistol. He didn't, fled

(09:53):
the scene on foot, and it says discarded his clothing
in a parking lot nearby.

Speaker 6 (09:56):
I don't know, or just running naked through the streets.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
So later a woman called nine one one saying her
son and just robbed a bank and she was on
her way to turn him in.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
By the ways, you know, I said, thirty three years old.
They got the money he was charged with.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
This is the weird charge, charged with robbery with a
firearm while wearing a mask.

Speaker 5 (10:15):
Oh that is it? Is it like efferent escalates the charge.
I guess maybe.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Firearm while wearing a mask.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
Uh So he's currently unbond, but he was currently out
on bond from another robbery. So yeah, so when they
that's bad though, when you go into jail, like, how'd
you get caught?

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Man?

Speaker 3 (10:34):
My mom called? Right, yeah, trying to jail anymore. But
obviously bad dude, right if your mom's turning you in.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Right morning, mixed, I'm not heressed. The quirky Liz Luda.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
Looks at social media thousand hours a day, so you
don't have to.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
And the big Turen going into the holiday season this
year is what is referred to as a quote unquote
Ralph Lauren Christmas.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
So fancy fancy fants.

Speaker 4 (10:57):
Yeah, except not really. So the big trend this year
and I was like, what is what is this?

Speaker 6 (11:02):
I have to figure this out.

Speaker 4 (11:03):
Right, And it's using classic colors like red, green, gold,
maybe a little bit of plaid thrown in there, and
then using old school bows like you would find at
the dollar store. And uh, basically it's how all of
us have been celebrating. The rich people are crossplaying over again.
They're like trying to make it all trending, and they're like,

(11:24):
think of an old VHS from the eighties, to which
I said, we didn't even have VHS recordings of my
childhood in the nineties, But think of it that way,
like an.

Speaker 6 (11:33):
Old classic Christmas with the reds in the green.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
They just call it just are they selling raffling it?
Like they're just calling it.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
I think it's because there's the plaid involved with it,
like just very Americana, old school eighties nineties Christmas. And
as somebody that may or may not have boarding tendencies,
I got myself covered because last year, you know, the
big trend was it was it was like bakery. It
was very pink Christmas. It's very gingerbread oriented, and it

(12:03):
was hard because I was like, none.

Speaker 6 (12:04):
Of us fits my color scheme.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
I guess I'm out, but I'm swooping in this year
and I am accidentally trendy.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
Well, I think a lot of people don't replace it.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
Every year, sleep and right, So we're all just automatically
on trend. But so if you go on like any
of the social media, like the influencers and the celebrities,
they're all referring to it as a what Ralph lurin Christmas.
I think it's just their easiest way they can brand
it to make it sound fancy but relatable.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
I think I picked that brand of all writings. That's
what I don't know.

Speaker 4 (12:33):
That like it just I think because you're like associated
like with the Olympics and like that Americana in that
whole field.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
Because there was not a name for a brand name
for when they were doing that whatever you said last
year gingerbread or.

Speaker 8 (12:44):
So this is.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
I think they're trying to make it more like something old,
like I don't know, this Saturday evening post or whatever that.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
Thing right like that, I think, like trying to make
it sound cooler than it is. But we're just pulling
out all of our old decorations from years past.

Speaker 6 (12:59):
And that's okay.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
On the problem. Yeah, that's the problem.

Speaker 4 (13:07):
It's a Monday, that's the problem, all right, So today,
says Matt and Liz, Am I the problem for telling
my coworker that she can't give used items out of
baby shower. One of our coworkers is pregnant and having
a baby shower, and I feel like our other coworker
is using this as a way to get rid of
baby stuff sitting.

Speaker 6 (13:23):
Around her house.

Speaker 4 (13:24):
I understand not everyone can give an extravagant gift, but
at least show up with a new onesie or pack
of diapers, not your old pack and play.

Speaker 6 (13:32):
Am I the problem? You're one hundred percent the problem.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
No, no, no, you've got to bring some mean.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Okay, if you want to do something on the side
where you give, you're used to it.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
But at the party, you've got to bring something new.

Speaker 6 (13:43):
Some of the stuff, though, is so expensive.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
Right maybe if you're doing some few hundred dollars item,
but if it's just some you know, toys, oh.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
Yeah, but everything, everything helps and counts, especially to be
your first mom, first time mom.

Speaker 6 (13:56):
Oh my gosh, I would have loved that.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
I love it, and I'm not gonna it's worth it.
I am saying. The question was should you bring something
new to a baby shower.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
And I'm saying yes, times are tough. You show up
with what you show up with.

Speaker 6 (14:09):
But I had when I was pregnant with my son,
there was a lady.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Who was like, listen, I got this really expensive baby.

Speaker 6 (14:15):
Carrier at my baby shower and my kid hates it.
Do you want it? And I was like, absolute, But see,
that's different.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
They asked. They did not bring it as a.

Speaker 4 (14:24):
Gift, that's true, but that was the only gift she
did give, and my kid used it, and then my nephew.

Speaker 6 (14:29):
Used it too.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
It got like like six years of use out of it,
and I think it got passed on from there, and
I don't know what kid's being carried in it.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
Not against giving passing on things like that. What I'm
saying is for the part, for the the what do
you call baby shower, bring something new you can.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
You can do the side items on us, you know,
on the side, that's cool. Okay.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
There might be an exception if it the thing costs,
if it's a used two hundred dollars right, three hundred
dollars him or something. Yeah, but if it's some old pacifiers.

Speaker 5 (15:05):
Yeah, or like clothes, you don't bring like used baby clothes, right.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
And there's nothing wrong with giving them, not at all,
but not as the main present you're bringing.

Speaker 5 (15:14):
Okay, So what if it's like a vintage I don't know,
changing table or something like that. Vintage I mean just
like redone. I'm pretty sure.

Speaker 4 (15:25):
Whenever it involves babies, we don't use anything that says vintage,
which is fine.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
It looks vintage, it looks like.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
Yeah, yeah, it's furniture. We're not we're not talking.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Like that's cool. I mean you and you read it,
you did some work to it, right, Okay?

Speaker 1 (15:41):
Cool?

Speaker 4 (15:41):
I mean and I can see your side. They don't
give it used uper genie. There's something it just can't
ever be cleaned enough. Right.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
Smell is great though, memory for memory, if you want
to tell you in seven four or five, seven one,
seven nine. I was always weird even about giving used
things to Like I wouldn't just bring them to somebody.
I would be like, Okay, I have some used stuff.
Do you want and like, explain what you know?

Speaker 1 (16:04):
Clothes? Do you want it? Like, I would never just
give it to somebody without asking.

Speaker 6 (16:08):
Oh, I'd show up with trash bags. I'd be like,
here you go.

Speaker 5 (16:11):
So you definitely can't put it in a trash bag.
You have to at least wrap it.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
I think I don't know.

Speaker 4 (16:17):
I want you to know, like when I'm showing up,
I'm not trying to pass this off as brand new,
but listen.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
That's a side. That's a side thing.

Speaker 6 (16:23):
I got like thirty onesies.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Here you go, I gotta ask for it.

Speaker 6 (16:28):
Have enough fox bows and ribbons to wrap.

Dyankean passed away over the weekend. So she was seventy nine,
and it was I think, I think it was a
really big surprise one. I didn't realize she was seventy nine,
but they said it was very unexpected. Her health had
recently declined in the past few months. Did choose in
a lot of stuff, I mean, First Wives Clubs, something's
got to give.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
Father of the Bride, she won Academy Awards for As
Good as It Gets and Andy Hall.

Speaker 6 (17:07):
Yeah, so she's been in a lot of movies.

Speaker 4 (17:09):
She started out with The Godfather movies, and you know,
I best know her from Father of the Bride. And
so there is a thing that Steve Martin shared on Instagram,
and it was an interview where Martin short asked Diane
Keaton who's sexier him or Steve Martin, to which Diane
Keaton responded, I mean you're both idiots.

Speaker 6 (17:28):
And so Steve Martin shared that on his social.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
Media and basically said that basically summarizes their entire relationship
of working and everything perfect.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
I don't know if anybody's seen the video, but Billy
Eilish has hit me hard and soft tour Land in
Miami and one.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Fan took the hard part a little too seriously.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
Video from the gig shows Billy walking in between stage
and the Barry King, you know, high five and fans
gonna go out, and then when fool grabs her arm
and yanks her toward the crowd, Billy pulls free with
help of securities. She looks pretty annoyed as she walks away,
as well you would be. And they found the guy.
He was rejected from the concert. But I always wanted that,
Like when you see guys, especially on stage doing it,

(18:08):
you know they're high five people, Yeah, they're elevated. Yeah,
And I know, and I don't know why we give
s sort of watching how they do it. And if
you watch, they're very careful about really quick in and out,
in and out, Yeah, because you could easily, not even on.

Speaker 5 (18:23):
Purpose, especially if you're up and the crowd is down,
like you can pull you down.

Speaker 3 (18:29):
That's what I always think when I see that, And
and so I always I don't know why if my
brain has gone there every time I get it on,
Like I watched to see how quickly they do it.

Speaker 4 (18:37):
Yeah, because just like like made a handshake almost motion,
if something you can accidentally jerk you in. And then
like when you watch the Billie Eilish clip where she
gets pulled in, like.

Speaker 6 (18:48):
It looks like he told you, but like what if
he just made too much contact somebody bounds? Yeah, like
you never know, but it's terrifying.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
And all I can think is, I think she needs
more security guards down there. One guy really came in
and handled it, but dang, I was nervous.

Speaker 3 (19:01):
But then you see these people that you certain acts
will do, like the crowd surfing, or they'll go out
in the crowd and sing and stuff. So I mean,
you know, it's cool. Let's see what else we have here,
Oh Taylor Swift.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
Yeah, so there's the Halloween decoration in New Jersey and
it is called the Graveyard of Heartbreak and basically it
has a bunch of tombstones in it, and it's all
the names of Taylor Swift's exes, Harry Styles, Joe Jonas,
John Mayer, Jake chill and Hall, Matt Healy, John Allen.
And then you know what people always forget, Calvin Harris.

(19:34):
She did it Calvin Harris for a long time too.
He was not included. Oh, Tom Hidleston was not included.
Taylor Laudner was not included.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
They only had so many didn't want to go out
and buy more tombstones, right, I guess.

Speaker 4 (19:45):
I guess like Taylor Launer has like this little podcast thing,
and I feel like he likes to bring up Taylor
Swift whenever he can, like, oh, yeah, you know, we
used to we used to date. So I bet you
he's sitting at home and he's like, I wasn't included
in the decorps.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
The guy who should have done it is the guy
she did in high school.

Speaker 5 (19:59):
Oh yeah, in his yard with his face right and name, yeah.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
And I know want to do that whole thing where
it's like she's more than just her exes, I know,
but like, who doesn't love a good pop culture reference
in our decorp And she's thirty three years so five
thirty five, I mean, so yeah, you gonna have some exes, right.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
And finally, the Carolina Panthers, Yeah, in the Super Bowl,
they did it. They're three and three and they beat
the everybody can agree they hated Cowboys.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
Yes, ohh back.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
And forth battle thirty twenty seven for a win for
the home team with their last second field goal. Bryce
Sung was great Rico Dawdle, who's now the running back.
Was a revenge game for him because it came from
the Cowboys and they get the victory. And there was
a ton of Cowboys fans in the stands ha ha,
because it's a lot of people are saying.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
It felt like a more Cowboys than Panthers.

Speaker 5 (20:50):
Easy, right, normally when the Cowboys come to.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
Town, the U three and oh the Panthers at home
this year are right. They've won two consecutive games for
the first time since twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
I don't think so. I think it was twenty twenty one.

Speaker 3 (21:01):
Well, two consecutives since twenty twenty five, second winning streak
of the Canalis era. And also I think first time
they've been five hundred since twenty twenty one something like that.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
So it's been a while. But there you go.

Speaker 6 (21:14):
I'm proud of them. You know what we say, we said,
play better and you know what they are.

Speaker 3 (21:18):
So that's all you had to say, right Like I Liz,
Good Morning, mixed Man, Harris Liz Luda, would you have
your wedding sponsored by a brand? Sixty one percent American
said they would.

Speaker 6 (21:30):
Heck, yeah, absolutely, I would have.

Speaker 4 (21:34):
And uh, you could paint me up like a NASCAR
You could put sponsorships all over that dress.

Speaker 6 (21:39):
Pay a little extra for that back bumper.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
I am there for the back bumper.

Speaker 3 (21:44):
They they that sixty one percent that they would do it.
They consider it. But the brand would have to cover
more than half the cost of ceremony.

Speaker 4 (21:50):
Oh yeah, you better be paying for the ceremony.

Speaker 6 (21:53):
I'm covering myself.

Speaker 3 (21:54):
Yeah, cover yourself. But I would take it. You know,
small little you know, you get certain things for a
third of it or something. I don't need a brand
to do half of it.

Speaker 4 (22:03):
I need you to do the entire thing, and I
will go all out for your brand in exchange for that.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
If there, let's say your wedding is twenty thousand dollars
or thirty thousand dollars, that's a kind of average. Is
they're giving you a ten grand You're not gonna consider that.

Speaker 4 (22:17):
So I will say that I did my entire wedding
in twenty fifteen for a little around seventy five hundred
eight thousand people do.

Speaker 6 (22:25):
Yeah, And so I mean I worked the bargains for that.

Speaker 4 (22:29):
So I would have expected them to put the bill
on that entire thing. Yes, And in exchange for it,
I will hang a banner with your logo and will
give you rights to put me on your social media,
put me in a TV commercial.

Speaker 6 (22:41):
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
TJ.

Speaker 5 (22:42):
You're in right, Yeah, I'm definitely only thirty two percent.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
We're like, no, I could not happen.

Speaker 6 (22:46):
That's the rich people I got. I've gotta keep my
wedding call.

Speaker 4 (22:50):
Or they haven't been married yet and they don't realize,
like man, that money really could have gone somewhereas right,
or they're just sounding like it's so fifty eight percent,
we'd be okay with a.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
Brand inspired cocktail. Why not?

Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yeah, fifty This is if they are covering one hundred
percent of the wedding. Yeah, but I would consider anything
I could do hover U fifty. Allow brand logo reception tables,
on signage and on invitations.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
Absolutely sure, as long as there's no like long term
body modification, like I'm not going to tattoo your logo
across my forehead.

Speaker 6 (23:23):
That is where I graonifize tattoo, I do want to
face tattoo, but I want it to be my choice.

Speaker 5 (23:28):
Four percent.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
Allow the brand to hand out product samples.

Speaker 6 (23:30):
Absolutely.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
I didn't no, remember those little wedding gifts like those
were such a pain to like tie the little tiny
bag and like nobody wants that, But I don't care
what it is. You could literally be an adult diaper
and I would stand there as the bride passing those out.
You blow the bubbles as I walk to the car,
and I will throw them into the crowd.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
So, yeah, you're you're limiting it to maybe something that.

Speaker 5 (23:54):
Yeah, I'm not doing adult diapers or something like that.
It's got to be some you know, like a drink company. Yeah,
I'm down with that.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
But here's when you would love and you would do
it for free? Yeah, thirty three percent only, but allow
the brand's mascot to attend a wedding.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Oh my gosh, you do that even if they didn't
give money.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
I would ask if I could walk down the aisle
as the mascot.

Speaker 5 (24:18):
Does Budge Angles have a mascot?

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Yeah, you would do that, yes.

Speaker 6 (24:22):
Yes, oh my gosh, yeah a Harpye.

Speaker 3 (24:25):
That was twenty percent would allow the mascot or brand
rep to officiate the wedding.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
Some people pay to get mascots at their weddings, So like.

Speaker 3 (24:33):
I mean, but only twenty percent and only eighteen percent,
but would mention the brand and their wedding vows?

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (24:39):
I would.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Yeah. I mean I know some people are super relates,
but you could still drop it in there.

Speaker 5 (24:43):
Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 6 (24:43):
Yeah, but like the whole.

Speaker 3 (24:46):
Of a carpenter, speaking of carpenters brought here carpentry and dismiss.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
But like, honestly the ceremony, like you've already signed the
marriage certificate at that point, right, Like is it's just
just theater at that point?

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Seventeen percent would put the brand logo on the wedding dress. Absolutely, Yeah, yeah,
I know I can see why.

Speaker 6 (25:06):
I can't tell you though I charged more for that
back bumper.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
What it depends what they're putting back there in the
back that. I don't care if you're paying no, but
whatever you want back there.

Speaker 6 (25:14):
Absolutely.

Speaker 6 (29:33):
Everything, sound like John Depp.

Speaker 1 (29:37):

be locked up. I'll take the hold on.

Speaker 3 (29:45):
We need more information from you. You sat through that
you deserve all the love in the world. Hold on
any more info.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
In the morning, It's the Morning mixed with Matt Harrison
Liz Luda.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
Say Renfest tickets away. We're gonn give away every day
week seven and forty five. So I was going to
the Renaissance Festival yesterday. My daughter Avery loves it, loves it,
and she had a fend with her. This is the
only weekend they can go because they're up at school,
and so that's important the story. So I get them.
I'm trucking on down the road and my car loses power,

(30:20):
like it drops, just quickly dropping, you know, like sixty
sixty five, thirty whatever. But I have enough to get
off of an exit by the outlet malls.

Speaker 6 (30:28):
Yeah, get off.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
There and get into a parking lot. But no, now
I know it's dead. It's dead. I mean, it's there's
no sense going any further.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
So now I am in my head, I'm like, Okay,
problem solve here.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
How do I get because calling a friend is not
going to help me. No, because that's that if I
had one, so kind of.

Speaker 6 (30:50):
Called me old, But what would have happened?

Speaker 3 (30:52):
Like what there's nothing to help me get that's not
gonna help me. Someone about to bring two cars drive
me to the rest. So then I go, okay, Uber
to and from and then uber to work tomorrow. But
then I start adding up that that going through my head.
The numbers on that are, yeah, it's forty from where
I was, and I'm from forts, so would probably put
another seventy eight.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
And then but then I realized I can Uber to
work tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (31:13):
Because I got to take them back to school.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
In Virginia today and a half hour drive, so I
have to have a car.

Speaker 6 (31:19):
You have to drive all the way to Virginia too
afterwards today.

Speaker 3 (31:22):
Yes, yes, So now I'm like, okay, what the heck
do I do? So I said, okay, I'll call rental
companies and have them bring a car to me. So
I call one and they're like, we don't, we don't
bring it to you. I'm like and and well, first
I call and they're like, well where are you?

Speaker 1 (31:39):
And I'm like I don't. I'm buy the outlet also.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
Like right, but this is somebody in wherever the country
like like okay. So I'm like, I guess it's so
I have to look on the weather to try to
figure what zip it. And anytime I put rental car
near me, it just comes up. And any call I
make goes to the national things. So if they get okay,
what do I do here? So then I'm like, ah,
I kind of I can hear planes.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
I know I'm near the airport.

Speaker 6 (32:02):
I know you're near the airport because I know exactly
where you are. You're right by my house.

Speaker 1 (32:05):
And I'm like, are I yes? But I guess I
could have gotten you to get me to the airport.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
Because what I do then is I thinking, okay, I
will uber to the airport. Oh to get a rental car.
So I call the rental car company, I line up
a car and then wait fifteen minutes whatever to get
the upert the uber it takes me there to the Ubert.
I've never gotten a rental at the Charlotte Airport. Yeah,
I've gotten in a lot of places, and usually it's like, uh,

(32:30):
you know, either you drive to it or take a
shuttle to it. Right, it's a separate place, right, and
it used to be at Charlotte Airport because I remember.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
A getting I swear it used to be.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
So the Uber guy pulls up and he's just at
the departures or whatever, yeah, and I'm like, he's like, dude,
there's no.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Rental car place here, and I'm like, let me call.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
So I try to call, but when you call, you'll
get the national and the national person says to me
in broken English, like, uh, what is your question? I said,
My question is I don't know where the rental car,
the name of the place, by whatever, where it is.
I just need to know where it is because I'm
sitting and jammed Charlotte's Sunday Airport, right yeah, and I

(33:08):
need to know where to go because I don't want
to be dropped off.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
And the person they just hang up.

Speaker 3 (33:13):
And now, mind you, here's what I have because we're
going to un Fest and it was gonna ring, so
I have I'm carrying two umbrellas, a handful of like chargers,
and right, like you know, I get on my car,
like my registration, like all this stuff, and my kids
carrying stuff, the other girls carrying stuff, and so it's

(33:33):
not like is this convenient for me to just to
be dropped off and try to find my way right right,
So he says, you got to get out because I
got another ride.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
Like okay, So I gathered my stuff.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
It's just handsfuls of stuff and my daughter's friends.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Very very soft, like stocks, really soft. Yeah, she goes,
I know where it is. I'm like, you know where?
What is where? The budget rebl card place is what?
She goes. I said that in the back, but I
didn't hear you. She goes follow me.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
She's like, okay, all follow So it's inside. You have
to go inside.

Speaker 6 (34:04):
Yeah, your baggage claim is right.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
Yeah, and then you get an elevator that goes up
to a bridge, and.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
Then you go over there, and then you get another
elevator that takes you there. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
Wow, so she knew.

Speaker 3 (34:12):
But once I got inside, I did see signs, but
there was no signs really the probably signs outside, but
I didn't notice.

Speaker 6 (34:17):
Right, you're all frazzled. Yeah, I think I'm in.

Speaker 3 (34:20):
And I've never noticed it before because I never needed
it there before.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
Right, last time we got a rental car from Charls.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
I swear it was a lot somewhere right, So anyway,
I go in there, and then I realized she's usually
returning the car tomorrow at noon or whatever.

Speaker 1 (34:33):
I'm like, I can't return it tomorrow because I got
to take them.

Speaker 3 (34:38):
So that comes a hass im like, oh, we got
to find you one for that, blah blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (34:42):
We get the thing things.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
So I did get the rental, you know, get to
the Renaissance Festival.

Speaker 6 (34:47):
A great to the Renaissance Festial. I have to give you,
mad I.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
Was not going to let her miss the Renaissance Festival.
That's a special outfit for it and everything. I was
gonna make it get there.

Speaker 5 (34:56):
Out of the year, at least of the Sunday.

Speaker 1 (34:59):
And I'm because its rain is coming when we leave
our house. It's sunny.

Speaker 3 (35:03):
By the way, we leave our house at like tennish.
We should have been there by ten forty five eleven. Yeah,
we got there at one.

Speaker 6 (35:11):
Honestly, that's not that bad. That's going to tell you
right now.

Speaker 4 (35:16):
Though the fact that you did not call me I
would have helped you figure something out.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
I didn't call anybody at the very worst, like the.

Speaker 6 (35:22):
Very least, like you could have. I could have driven
to the airport. Yeah, my housband.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
He could have driven the rental car to you and
just dropped it off, and then I would have just
gone back.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
I know it was. It was. It was oh good fun.

Speaker 4 (35:33):
But yeah, is your car just randomly park somewhere now?

Speaker 1 (35:38):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (35:40):
Okay, yeah, I got to deal with that because there's
nobody opening on a Sunday for me to take it to.
So now today while I'm driving to virgin you're gonna
try to figure out. And I realized I have the
keys to the car, so I don't even think in
toe without the keys. Maybe the count tow without the keys.
But when the places they take it, they.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Can turnout the keys, right, Yeah, but you didn't like
turn the tire real tight, right?

Speaker 6 (35:58):
No, they can tell I parked in.

Speaker 3 (35:59):
A place, can get in the front of the back
or whatever. It's all I gotta figure out.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
Nightmare.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
Huzza morning makes Matt Harrison Liz loot up. Some DJ
and online people are talking about things people only pretend
to enjoy. They give an example of networking events where
you're sipping bad wine forcing smiles. I don't pretend to enjoy, please, Yeah,

(36:29):
what would want on your brain?

Speaker 6 (36:31):
Sunrises?

Speaker 4 (36:32):
The people that are like, oh, I've got to get
up early to watch the sunrise. It always feels very
pretentious to me, and.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
I'm that guy.

Speaker 3 (36:38):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Guy.

Speaker 4 (36:39):
The thing is is, given the hours that we work
every single day, just look out the window.

Speaker 6 (36:43):
We literally see it every day. So maybe I'm just spoiled.

Speaker 4 (36:47):
But like, if I'm on vacation and people are like,
let's go and watch the sunrise over the ocean or something,
I'll do it. That's what vacation's for, is to not
watch the I'll do it.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
I'll give you.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
And I hope you and I are too alike in
that one, because even when I was visiting a friend
of mine in PA not too long ago, and I
was in the guest bedroom, he goes, You're gonna love
listen here. Sometimes I sleep in here just because you
can look out the window and see the sunrise. I'm like,
I am, I'm I'd like to see you do is
open my eyes and I'm not gonna do a little
walk And he says, yo, So you don't want to
be in our text chain or they have a texting

(37:18):
where they send pictures of sunrise.

Speaker 5 (37:20):
I don't want that. That's too far. Those people need
to be stopped that job.

Speaker 4 (37:25):
I am drawing the curtains so it doesn't awaken me
from my slumber before I wanted to.

Speaker 3 (37:31):
One that I definitely have is the grade school and
even maybe middle school performances of your even your kids.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
Oh no, you go to them. Do you enjoy them?
Just like you just Actually I don't get through them.
I love I like the awards thing. Your kid never wins.
The same two kids win every year, so that one, you're.

Speaker 4 (37:51):
Just like, all right, I got to figure out how
to talk to them afterwards and mentally prepare you still
did great, buddy.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
Oh, they don't even notice, they don't care. They know it.
So and so and so and so we're gonna win, right,
Something in your mind.

Speaker 5 (38:02):
I think people who run for exercise, I think they're lying.
I think you're lying.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
I know, I know.

Speaker 3 (38:07):
I don't enjoy See, I don't enjoy the actual running.
I enjoy the benefits of it, Okay, I like, like,
you know, anxiety and whatever, health and all that, but
I don't actually enjoy doing it.

Speaker 5 (38:20):
But some people claim they're like, I know, I can't
wait to get out on this run.

Speaker 1 (38:24):
I'm like, no, you are lynding the.

Speaker 4 (38:26):
Entire time, I'm like counting down, like, okay, only eight
more minutes, minutes in fifty nine seconds? How closely can
I count to sixty to watch the minute change?

Speaker 1 (38:36):
And I'm a runner and I do the same thing.
I mean, I don't want to have a runner, but I
do run.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
Somebody said cold plunges.

Speaker 4 (38:42):
My my husband enjoys those. I think there is something
wrong with him.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
Though smoothie's made from greens. I'm into that.

Speaker 6 (38:50):
You weren't here one day. I almost get mad at TJ.

Speaker 4 (38:53):
I'm like, just eat the greens and then enjoy the smoothie.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
What I would do it again for the benefit not
enjoying it.

Speaker 5 (39:01):
Yeah, but there's enough fruit that like balances that.

Speaker 6 (39:04):
You know what I mean, You're ruining the taste of
your fruit.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
Just have your miserable thirty seconds of shoving the greens
in your mouth and chewing it, and then reward yourself
with the sweet beverage.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
I'm with you, right.

Speaker 3 (39:17):
Somebody said Instagram and Facebook people just pretend like I
gotta do this or whatever because of family or pressures
or whatever.

Speaker 6 (39:25):
I enjoy social media, but is my least favorite.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
Liz Luda blows up and earn Halloween. You can see
go go to.

Speaker 3 (39:31):
Liz Luda on Facebook Morning Mix Matt Harris Liz ludas
TJ Wich.

Speaker 4 (39:35):
You got there's a new method for flirting, and I
am I'm appalled.

Speaker 6 (39:41):
I don't know how else to say it.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
I think I'm embarrassed more than anything else. But they're
calling it the triangle method, and it's been around for years.

Speaker 6 (39:49):
I can't I'm not making any eye.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
Contact, and so they describe how you do it, and
it is that you look at somebody and you look
at one of their eyes, then you look at their
other eye, and then you look at their mouth.

Speaker 6 (40:00):
And then you bring it back up your gaze back
up to.

Speaker 4 (40:02):
Their eyes, and that when you do that, you're subconsciously
like sending a signal that you're interested. Now, the reason
I'm massively embarrassed is because of someone who is socially
awkward and hates eye contact.

Speaker 7 (40:16):
This is like a trick they taught us a decade
ago for how to basically make eye contact with people
without freaking them out because I'm either looking to the
left or I'm making well, it's.

Speaker 3 (40:27):
Not as bad as when you do it MAP, but
I know I bore a hole in somebody's soul, very
intense eye contact.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
So this was supposed to be our little work around,
and apparently the entire time it looks like you're flirting.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
I don't think you know, that's the thing.

Speaker 3 (40:40):
When you brought it up right away, I'm like, oh, yeah,
I do that so I don't have to stare them
in the eye exactly.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
And if you get on control or anything, all the
AI stuff everything pops up and it's.

Speaker 6 (40:49):
Like the triangle method.

Speaker 4 (40:50):
It says, quote a technique used for flirting or showing interest,
and then there's Reddit threads on it and it's like
telling other people how to do it, and I'm like,
wait a.

Speaker 6 (41:00):
Second, Well I didn't Is that I've.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
Been scaring women for years?

Speaker 8 (41:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (41:05):
But like I didn't. I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
I don't know. If you can tell, though, can you tell?

Speaker 4 (41:08):
I don't know?

Speaker 6 (41:09):
But I don't want to look at you. Do you
see it?

Speaker 1 (41:13):
Whoa?

Speaker 5 (41:13):
You're like, you're like giving me eyes.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
That's the thing.

Speaker 5 (41:18):
It's like the focused eyes.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
It's like, wow, I know at any time, I don't, Hey, what.

Speaker 5 (41:23):
Are you doing Friday night?

Speaker 1 (41:24):
Yeah? Doing the triangle? Now? Whoa?

Speaker 3 (41:29):
Yeah, I don't know, Like whatever, anybody talks about eye contact,
no one can look.

Speaker 1 (41:33):
I don't know what if it's just me or anybody else.

Speaker 3 (41:35):
If he talks about eye contact and you look at teach,
I don't know, look at me, you talk about eye contact.

Speaker 6 (41:40):
I hate icon general.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
She was immediately uncomfortable.

Speaker 6 (41:44):
It's a me problem.

Speaker 4 (41:45):
Oh gosh, though, there's something about yours that's just like, I.

Speaker 6 (41:49):
Know, like a Disney staring out of the woods at me.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
I'm doing the triangle with a full head motions.

Speaker 5 (41:56):
Yeah, yeah, that is. That is less concerning when you
do your whole ahead.

Speaker 3 (42:01):
Decades, I've been trying to learn how to do eye contact,
but every time I do, people are like.

Speaker 1 (42:05):
That is way intense. Dude.

Speaker 3 (42:07):
I'm like, I don't know how to date. I can't
control my intensity. It's probably intense. Toot somebody.

Speaker 6 (42:13):
I can't do it.

Speaker 4 (42:15):
My husband we're going into our ten year anniversary and
I think I've made eye contact with them three times
in the marriage.

Speaker 3 (42:20):
So maybe I want everybody out there to try just
talk to somebody, go work or whatever about eye contact
and then look at the person and see, because you
brought it up, it gets weird, and then do the trual.

Speaker 6 (42:31):
I said and see if they're like, what staring my mouth?

Speaker 1 (42:34):
I mouth, eye mouth, eye mouth. Thanks for starting your
day with The Morning, Miss.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
It's The Morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz lud No.

Speaker 3 (42:42):
Here's your latest pop update, and man it's powered by
mark'spiring real estate.

Speaker 4 (42:46):
Dankane passed away over the weekend, so she was seventy
nine years old.

Speaker 6 (42:50):
The news broke on Saturday.

Speaker 4 (42:52):
They're saying that in her final months she was surrounded
by her closest family, who kept things very private, but
then her death was unexpected. Her life or her health
had been declining rapidly in recent months. Diankee's one of
those people though you just kind of always assume is
just gonna be there.

Speaker 1 (43:07):
I don't know I was with you. I did not.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
I mean, obviously I could figure it out if I
sat that and thought I knew she'd be seventy nine,
But yeah, off the top of I don't know if
she just hasn't been seen at a Lionel or something,
because it did seem like died and I just imagined
her younger, and all of a sudden, she's.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
Like almost eighty, right, yeah, she's like oh yeah, oh.

Speaker 6 (43:24):
All right, but she was in tons of movies.

Speaker 4 (43:27):
You know, she did some stuff with Godfather, she was
nominated for Andie Hall. And then what I best know
her for is like the nineties movies she did like
Father of the Bride. Yeah, and you know, Steve Martin
shared a thing that apparently one time in an interview,
Martin short asked Diane Keaton who was sexy or him
or Steve Martin, and she said, you're both idiots. So

(43:49):
I love that she was in First Wives Club. Something's
gotta give.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
She wasn't a lot of it gets.

Speaker 3 (43:55):
Julianne Moore as a fitness tip, doesn't just do your
body good, it's good for your brain too, She says,
I remember I had a trainer used to say you
should take the opportunity to walk backwards. So every once
in a while, I just go ahead and walk backwards,
she says, especially up a hill. Just get your body
and brain. Anything that gets you out of your normal
routine does.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
I Actually I.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
Heard like brush with your opposite hand, stuf. Have you
ever tried just randomly walking backwards. I've tried running backwards
and not in a long time.

Speaker 6 (44:23):
Yeah, I think I can do it. I'm like gone
up the stairs backwards.

Speaker 3 (44:27):
Before you've gone up the stairs backwards. That seems harder
than it is hard. Yeah, to be hard, but I
mean it makes sense. It'll be like make your brain
work a little differently, I guess.

Speaker 5 (44:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (44:37):
And running backwards, try to see how long we can
do that in a day before anyone notices or says something.

Speaker 6 (44:43):
We just walk backwards all day.

Speaker 3 (44:45):
Running backwards is like a training thing. People run backwards
to train.

Speaker 5 (44:48):
But yeah, that seems more difficult.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
Sure walking back Yeah, I won just walk backwards walkwards.

Speaker 4 (44:54):
Just see if anybody notices, they're just going to be like, whoa,
that's a lot on my contact.

Speaker 6 (44:59):
On the other way.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
Taylor Swift graveyard.

Speaker 4 (45:01):
Yeah, so there is like a display in New Jersey
where some people made tombstones and they put them out
front and they're all covered with Taylor Swift's ex boyfriend's names.
So there's Harry Styles, Joe Jonas, John Mayer, Jake Jillen Hall,
Matty Healy, Joe Alwen, Calvin.

Speaker 6 (45:17):
Harris wasn't included.

Speaker 4 (45:18):
I don't know, but they did have a skeleton of
Travis Kelcey down on one knee opproposing to a skeleton
Taylor I thought.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
Maybe they would have him as like a murderer that
killed all this.

Speaker 6 (45:27):
Oh yeah, because he did save her.

Speaker 9 (45:30):
From the food of ophilia.

Speaker 6 (45:33):
That was a reach. That was a real reach.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Kel leads us into football. Oh okay, why not, right Panthers?
Who didn't? The Cats are going to the Super Bowl?
Maybe not?

Speaker 3 (45:44):
But they're five hundred for the first time in like
four or five hundred means three and even wins and losses.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
Oh, why wouldn't that be fifty, like fifty fifty, it's
a five percentage?

Speaker 6 (45:54):
Oh, should put them together?

Speaker 3 (45:58):
Well, they wons beat the crappy Cowboys.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
We all hate. We all agree on one thing.

Speaker 4 (46:04):
Can I Can I make something up instead of congrats?
Can we say p cats?

Speaker 1 (46:10):
You can't say that. I don't think it's going to
catch on.

Speaker 6 (46:13):
I think it will.

Speaker 4 (46:14):
Yeah, okay to the panther cats, All right, go lick
your wounds.

Speaker 2 (46:23):
It's the Morning mixed with Matt Harrison, Liz Ludo.

Speaker 1 (46:28):
You say that the bad mother in law moment?

Speaker 4 (46:31):
Oh my gosh, this is one of the worst that
I've ever seen. So there is a video of a
gender reveal. It's going viral on social media and there's
been a lot of parody accounts that have recreated this event.

Speaker 6 (46:44):
And I thought it was all like a joke.

Speaker 4 (46:46):
I thought the entire thing was stage, but apparently the
original one.

Speaker 6 (46:50):
Her name is Gianna Woolf. And so she and her
husband they.

Speaker 4 (46:56):
Have those little poppers things like that where you like
in the dust comes out and it tells you.

Speaker 6 (47:01):
Like, if it's blue, it's a boy, and it's think
it's a girl.

Speaker 4 (47:04):
And so as they're like getting into frame and getting
all set up, and you see, you know, somebody's filming.
You see the mother in law walk in front of
them and she gets on top of some like cement
bricks where like the like landscaping.

Speaker 6 (47:18):
Is or whatever.

Speaker 4 (47:19):
And the mother literally says to the mother in law,
what are you doing? And she says, don't be nosy,
minds your business, okay.

Speaker 6 (47:27):
So they go and they let the poppers off for
the dust to go.

Speaker 4 (47:31):
The husband and wife do, and there's a blue one
and a pink one, and they look very confused because
they're not having twins. And then the mother in law says,
don't worry, I've got it covered, and she pops the
balloon and pink confetti comes out, and she stole the
entire moment to let them know that it was going
to be a girl. And so apparently they were just.

Speaker 6 (47:50):
Trying to like include the mother in law.

Speaker 4 (47:52):
Like hey, we'll let you tell you, We'll let them
tell you the gender, and then you just provide the
stuff and then.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
We'll do all the open yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (48:01):
But so the fact that the mother in law was like,
I'm not gonna let you reveal the gender of your baby.

Speaker 6 (48:05):
I'm going to reveal it for you.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
She was just trying to make it a practical joke.

Speaker 6 (48:10):
She laughed pretty maniacally. She was doing it.

Speaker 4 (48:13):
And I feel like in that moment, if I had
been that mom, I'd have been like, hmm, it's time
for the mother in law to leave and we're going
to redo this entire thing without her presents.

Speaker 3 (48:24):
We've seen them before, right, We've seen other ones where
the mother in law like ruins, ruins it or does
something about it that message.

Speaker 6 (48:31):
Why why would you do that?

Speaker 3 (48:32):
I didn't one she grabbed it or something and set
it off instead of letting the.

Speaker 6 (48:39):
I get that you're excited.

Speaker 4 (48:40):
I understand you're excited, but like, let them have their moment.

Speaker 6 (48:45):
It's not about you, mom in law.

Speaker 1 (48:47):
There's a lot of a lot of problems coming up
there in the future.

Speaker 3 (48:50):
I'm just I would love to interview the secretly interview
them and see were they surprised or was that totally
in character?

Speaker 1 (48:58):
Oh? Yes, you would.

Speaker 4 (48:59):
Do true well, the mom to be like you see
the disappointment and just the disgust on her face, Like
you see her go from like excited to confuse.

Speaker 6 (49:09):
To oh what? And I need to see the anger,
like what is wrong with you?

Speaker 4 (49:15):
And the fact that I don't know. I'd get mad
at the dad. I'd be like, you need to get
your mom in check.

Speaker 6 (49:20):
Everyone else.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
Check whatever. He found them on the internet, so they
must be true. Matt's Odd Facts corners is right up
your alley list. You might know the answer.

Speaker 3 (49:32):
The most common sentence in the Harry Potter books is
nothing happened.

Speaker 6 (49:39):
Oh I didn't know that.

Speaker 3 (49:41):
The most common sentence in the Twilight books is spider monkey.

Speaker 1 (49:46):
It must common sentence in Twilight books is I sighed?

Speaker 4 (49:50):
Yeah, I can see that there's a lot of sighing
in those books.

Speaker 3 (49:53):
The word dilemma originally made a choice between two tough options.
Three options would be a pri lemma for options a quadrilemma,
and so on and so forth.

Speaker 6 (50:04):
Interesting, I say we bring it back, bring it back.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
People would be like, shut up.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
Yeah, uh, you won't find orange chicken in China probably
not anyway, because it's not Chinese. It was invented by
Panda Express in nineteen eighty seven.

Speaker 6 (50:17):
Now that's what I actually knew, because I watched an.

Speaker 4 (50:19):
Entire i'm gonna call it a TikTok documentary, and they
had the chef and everything and all the different variations
he went through to get to that one.

Speaker 6 (50:26):
Yeah, yeah, I know. And you know what, it's delicious.

Speaker 1 (50:30):
It's a variation of general so chicken.

Speaker 3 (50:33):
Another one that you won't find in China, the both
americanized mutations of sweet and sour dishes.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
That do exist in China. And nachos. I get it.
This one another food one for you.

Speaker 3 (50:42):
It's after it's named after the person who invented it,
Ignatio Nacho a Naya, who was a host at a
Mexican restaurant called the Victory Club in nineteen forty three.
US Army Knives came in late, I said knives. US
Army Wives came in late. The chef had already left,
so Nacho win the kitchen to throw some things together,
which was basically what we know is not Joe's.

Speaker 1 (51:03):
It was popular, it took off.

Speaker 4 (51:04):
The last time I asked about it, I was told
it's not your business. I mean, I can add to
this surprising things.

Speaker 1 (51:11):
Ship away at the fact.

Speaker 6 (51:12):
Yeah, when I lived on.

Speaker 4 (51:13):
The West Coast, keeso keso does not exist out there,
And I was like, what do you mean qeso doesn't exist?
It was invented in Arkansas, like you get at the
Mexican restaurant, but.

Speaker 1 (51:22):
It doesn't even how does it not exist out there?

Speaker 4 (51:24):
Like you go to a restaurant, if you ask for kaeso,
they will bring you like some shredded cheese on a plate.

Speaker 1 (51:30):
That would be very disturbing, right, I know.

Speaker 7 (51:32):
I know.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
Guinness Book and World Records has discontinued some of its categories.

Speaker 1 (51:37):
Can't do these anymore.

Speaker 3 (51:38):
Raw egg consumption, heaviest pet and most beers consumed in
an hour.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
Yeah makes sense.

Speaker 3 (51:44):
The most abused social Security number ever has been used
in fraud by at least forty thousand different people. It
belonged to a secretary at a wallet company and nineteen
thirty eight social Security cards were new, and the secretary's
boss wanted people to see how they looked in a wallet.
One of the walls came with a sample social Security
card inside with her number on all over.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
That's fantastic.

Speaker 6 (52:07):
Now with the robotic uprising, the next.

Speaker 4 (52:10):
One will be zero zero zero zero zero zero one.

Speaker 3 (52:17):
When a drunk zebra fish is introduced to a group
of sober ones, a drunk zeeper fish.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (52:23):
The sober zebra fish will follow the drunk individual as
their leader.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
Oh does that happen in real life? That probably not,
but that's it.

Speaker 6 (52:31):
Maybe they're just worried. They're worried about them. You just
want to watch them.

Speaker 5 (52:35):
You've got the confidence, they've got drunk confidence.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
The other thing in liz Loz besides food is octopuses.

Speaker 6 (52:40):
Oh my gosh, they terrify me.

Speaker 3 (52:41):
They don't have eight arms, six arms and two legs. Oh,
two of its limbs work as legs to help it move.

Speaker 1 (52:48):
All the six arms grab food.

Speaker 4 (52:50):
Okay, I did know that they had ten tickles.

Speaker 7 (52:55):
Boo
