Between the stress of Christmas, not really knowing her coworkers, and zero energy to hunt down the “perfect” gift, she’s wondering if skipping it makes her the bad guy.

All I do with me, we mean no mat no,
what fucking money.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Every time.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Everybody and I stayed and they say, that's right. The
Tennessee Titans finally snapped that brutal losing streak over the weekend,
uh beating the Browns.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Now, granted it's.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
The Browns, but we still got a game. We won
uh thirty one nine and Cam Wore tossed two touchdowns,
Tony Pollard ran wild for one hundred and sixty one
yards and two scores, and the boys actually closed the
game out for the first time of week So yeah,
Titans fans can breathe at least for a minute. Although
with that win yesterday, according to tankathon dot com, the
(01:17):
Titans have now fouled to the number two overall pick
and next year's draft Giants now holding number one. Also,
if you're a Tennessee Vols fan, the volunteers are officially
headed to the Music.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
Boy, oh boy, does it feel good to have a
victory Monday here with you rock Classic Rock it the
right Nashville's Classic Rockets battle in the morning. So let's
talk about the big question everybody asks this time of
the year. Are we getting a white Christmas in Middle Tennessee?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Short answer, Eh, probably not.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
It turns out, according to the Stats Nationale chances of
waking up to a white Christmas are less than ten percent. Now,
I will say that we've had a handful of white
Christmases over the year, just enough to keep hope alive
and keep us checking the radar. But the reality is
on Christmas, we're more likely to get cold, rain, cloudy skies,
(02:35):
or you know that weird Tennessee weather where it's like
sixty five degrees outside. So you know, if you're dreaming
of a white Christmas this year, keep dreaming.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I'm just saying that. According to wk are In, six.

One five seven, three seven, one oh five nine is

the Rock is teaming up with two rivers Ford in
the Metro Nashville Police.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Department on the Highway to help.
Speaker 1 (05:22):

five nine in the Rock and two rivers Ford, the
South's most trusted for dealer. Hey, coming up here around
seven ten. We will get into it. And am I
a jerk? Well not me, you might say, yeah, you
are a jerk, but well, here from you. Every Monday

(06:12):

decide if they're a jerk or not. I'll do it
after seven o'clock. It's what O five nine in the right?
National's Classic Rockets Battle in the Morning. It's one O
five nine in the right Nashville's Classic Rockets Battle in
the Morning. Six one, five, seventh three seven, one oh
five nine is the number to jump in on the show.
Every Monday we do it, Am I a jerk? It's uh,
(06:33):
we're members of the rock family. It's a call in
and tell us what's going on in their life and
then we determine if they're a jerk or not. So
let's go to the phones. Let's see what we have
this morning. It's what oh five nine in the rock? Hi?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Who's this?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
This is Jenny, Jenny. What is going on this morning?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
You got a little bit of a situation that you
want to find out if you're a jerk or not.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
So I'm just wondering if if it makes me a
jerk if I opt out of the company secret Santa.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Okay, I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
I've just got like a lot going on with my
own Christmas. I don't really know everybody in the office
so well, and I just I can't even think about
what it would take to find the right gift for
someone in the office, right. I just don't really have
that kind of energy.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Am I the night jerk?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Here's the thing. I don't think you're a jerk at all.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
If you don't want to participate in the company Secret Santa. Now,
if somebody got you a gift, then obviously you have to, like,
you know, partake in the company Christmas Ana, because then
that means somebody else is left without a gift. Maybe
go to your boss and say, hey, look, I don't
want to do this because I don't know Stephanie in sales,
and uh, you know, if that's who it is, then
(07:40):
that's who it is. I don't think it's a jerk
move at all. But we'll see what the Rock family
thinks about this. Six one five seven, three seven one
five nine is the number again? Six one five, seventh
three seven, one oh five nine is the number?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Is Ginny a jerk? If she doesn't.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Participate in her company Secret Sannah will take your phone
calls next.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
And Nashal Classic Rock the Rock? Am I a jerk?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Six five seven, three seven, one oh five nine is
the number if you missed it.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Jenny called in earlier and had this to.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Say, So, I'm just wondering if if it makes me
a jerk if I opt out of the company Secretsanna.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Now here's the deal. A lot of people have their
thoughts and opinions on this. I already gave mine. I'd
love to get your two cents. Six one five, seven,
three seven, one oh five nine is the number. Let's
go to Stephanie and the borough. Stephanie, what are you thinking?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
She absolutely has a right to say no right now, Like, uh,
the economy is, it's a mess, and so if.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
She doesn't have the fun for.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
That, or even the time for that, like, let her be.
It's her life.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I am right there with you, and I appreciate you
calling in this morning. You don't know what people's financial
situations are at work, and then you're asking them to
go out and get somebody else a gift.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
They could have kids that.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
They're trying to get gifts for. But I don't think
our friend Jinny is a jerk. If she doesn't want
to participate in the Secret Santa thing at her office.
Six one, five, seventh, three seven, one oh five nine
is the number we'll get your phone calls and thoughts. Next,
Is Ginny a jerk if she doesn't want to participate
in the office secret Santa? Six one, five, seven, three seven,
(09:22):
one oh five nine.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Is the numbers? Oh five nine? The rock guy? Who's this?
Speaker 1 (09:26):
What's going on?
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Battle?
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Jim?
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Hey Jim? What's that? Brother?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Hey man?
Speaker 2 (09:30):
On the Secret Santa thing?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
No, she's not a jerk at all. I used to
work for a company that did kind of a similar thing,
and I didn't know half the employees, but the company
would get us like a twenty dollars gift card for.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Like Kroger or whatever when I started.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
When I started for this company, I watched it grow
from like ten people to over seventy in like five years.
But none of the employees got raises, but all the
all the people in the front offices did, right.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I don't believe in all.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
That Secret Santa staff, you know. I mean, it's just
if you want to buy something to somebody you like
at at the shop, that's something different. But to participate
in something like that. No, she's not a.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Jerk at all. I just I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's my thought on it.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Yeah, I'm right there with you, Jim. I appreciate you
calling in this morning.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Man, I'll have a good day brother, you too, brother man,
name the luck in the morning. Sure, nine the rock?
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Who's this credit? Hey? What's going on this morning?
Speaker 5 (10:31):
I'm comming to take a final?
Speaker 2 (10:34):
What what kind of final are you taking this morning?
Speaker 5 (10:36):
I'm in nursing school.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Well, good luck on your final? Is this? Is this
the last one? And then you become a nurse after
this one?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
No, I have about a year or less in the program.
But this is the hardest semester, everyone says. So if
I get through this week, I think I'll be good.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Well, we are wishing you the best of luck because
we need more nurses in the world like you.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Thank you. You got a thought on this whole secret
Santa thing.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
Yeah, I think I like you said, I think you
don't know other people's financial situation. And it's not like
she's asking to get a gift and not give a gift.
She's just not wanting to be a part of it.
If she was like, get me something and I'm not going.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
To get anything.
Speaker 5 (11:16):
Then that would be kind of jerky. But I think
this time of year especially, you have to just give
people grace. And at least she's like saying she's not
able to do it and then just stepping out of it.
Like it's just like people who buy angel trees and
then don't want to like fool the kids. Like these
kids get the second best all year round, like they
deserve to get good things. So at least she's not
(11:37):
agreeing to do it and then getting some crappy gifts
because she can't afford a good one.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Right, Absolutely, I agree with you one hundred percent on
that one.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
For sure.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
I appreciate you called it this morning in good luck
on your exam today.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Absolutely, you have a good one.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
Okay, you too.

So apparently President Trump wants to rename football yes, you
know the football that we watch on NFL Sundays.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
He says that soccer is the real football and that
the American sports should be renamed, So of course people
online are speculating what American football should be renamed. Some
of the options include grid iron, big skin, full contact chess.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Who the hell wants to call it full contact chess?
Speaker 1 (17:39):
That sounds dumb. Can we just leave it American football
or just leave it as football?
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Like I get it.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Soccer is football and in America, football is a completely
different thing.

It turns out, according to the Stats Nationale chances of

I will say that we've had a handful of white
Christmases over the year, just enough to keep hope alive

the Rock is teaming up with two rivers Ford in

Speaker 2 (05:19):

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Join us on the Highway to help from one O
five nine in the Rock and two rivers Ford, the
South's most trusted for dealer. Hey, coming up here around
seven ten. We will get into it. And am I
a jerk? Well not me, you might say, yeah, you
are a jerk, but well, here from you. Every Monday
we do it. Somebody calls in, ask the question, am
(06:12):
I a jerk? For something that they did? And you
decide if they're a jerk or not. I'll do it
after seven o'clock. It's what O five nine in the right?
National's Classic Rockets Battle in the Morning. It's one O
five nine in the right Nashville's Classic Rockets Battle in
the Morning. Six one, five, seventh three seven, one oh
five nine is the number to jump in on the show.
Every Monday we do it, Am I a jerk? It's uh,
(06:33):
we're members of the rock family. It's a call in
and tell us what's going on in their life and
then we determine if they're a jerk or not. So
let's go to the phones. Let's see what we have
this morning. It's what oh five nine in the rock? Hi?
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Who's this?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
This is Jenny, Jenny. What is going on this morning?
Speaker 1 (06:48):
You got a little bit of a situation that you
want to find out if you're a jerk or not.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
So I'm just wondering if if it makes me a
jerk if I opt out of the company secret Santa.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Okay, I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
I've just got like a lot going on with my
own Christmas. I don't really know everybody in the office
so well, and I just I can't even think about
what it would take to find the right gift for
someone in the office, right. I just don't really have
that kind of energy.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Am I the night jerk?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Here's the thing. I don't think you're a jerk at all.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
If you don't want to participate in the company Secret Santa. Now,
if somebody got you a gift, then obviously you have to, like,
you know, partake in the company Christmas Ana, because then
that means somebody else is left without a gift. Maybe
go to your boss and say, hey, look, I don't
want to do this because I don't know Stephanie in sales,
and uh, you know, if that's who it is, then
(07:40):
that's who it is. I don't think it's a jerk
move at all. But we'll see what the Rock family
thinks about this. Six one five seven, three seven one
five nine is the number again? Six one five, seventh
three seven, one oh five nine is the number?
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Is Ginny a jerk? If she doesn't.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Participate in her company Secret Sannah will take your phone
calls next.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
And Nashal Classic Rock the Rock? Am I a jerk?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Six five seven, three seven, one oh five nine is
the number if you missed it.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Jenny called in earlier and had this to.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Say, So, I'm just wondering if if it makes me
a jerk if I opt out of the company Secretsanna.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Now here's the deal. A lot of people have their
thoughts and opinions on this. I already gave mine. I'd
love to get your two cents. Six one five, seven,
three seven, one oh five nine is the number. Let's
go to Stephanie and the borough. Stephanie, what are you thinking?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
She absolutely has a right to say no right now, Like, uh,
the economy is, it's a mess, and so if.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
She doesn't have the fun for.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
That, or even the time for that, like, let her be.
It's her life.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I am right there with you, and I appreciate you
calling in this morning. You don't know what people's financial
situations are at work, and then you're asking them to
go out and get somebody else a gift.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
They could have kids that.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
They're trying to get gifts for. But I don't think
our friend Jinny is a jerk. If she doesn't want
to participate in the Secret Santa thing at her office.
Six one, five, seventh, three seven, one oh five nine
is the number we'll get your phone calls and thoughts. Next,
Is Ginny a jerk if she doesn't want to participate
in the office secret Santa? Six one, five, seven, three seven,
(09:22):
one oh five nine.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Is the numbers? Oh five nine? The rock guy? Who's this?
Speaker 1 (09:26):
What's going on?
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Battle?
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Jim?
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Hey Jim? What's that? Brother?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Hey man?
Speaker 2 (09:30):
On the Secret Santa thing?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
No, she's not a jerk at all. I used to
work for a company that did kind of a similar thing,
and I didn't know half the employees, but the company
would get us like a twenty dollars gift card for.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Like Kroger or whatever when I started.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
When I started for this company, I watched it grow
from like ten people to over seventy in like five years.
But none of the employees got raises, but all the
all the people in the front offices did, right.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I don't believe in all.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
That Secret Santa staff, you know. I mean, it's just
if you want to buy something to somebody you like
at at the shop, that's something different. But to participate
in something like that. No, she's not a.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Jerk at all. I just I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's my thought on it.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Yeah, I'm right there with you, Jim. I appreciate you
calling in this morning.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Man, I'll have a good day brother, you too, brother man,
name the luck in the morning. Sure, nine the rock?
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Who's this credit? Hey? What's going on this morning?
Speaker 5 (10:31):
I'm comming to take a final?
Speaker 2 (10:34):
What what kind of final are you taking this morning?
Speaker 5 (10:36):
I'm in nursing school.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Well, good luck on your final? Is this? Is this
the last one? And then you become a nurse after
this one?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
No, I have about a year or less in the program.
But this is the hardest semester, everyone says. So if
I get through this week, I think I'll be good.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Well, we are wishing you the best of luck because
we need more nurses in the world like you.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Thank you. You got a thought on this whole secret
Santa thing.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
Yeah, I think I like you said, I think you
don't know other people's financial situation. And it's not like
she's asking to get a gift and not give a gift.
She's just not wanting to be a part of it.
If she was like, get me something and I'm not going.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
To get anything.
Speaker 5 (11:16):
Then that would be kind of jerky. But I think
this time of year especially, you have to just give
people grace. And at least she's like saying she's not
able to do it and then just stepping out of it.
Like it's just like people who buy angel trees and
then don't want to like fool the kids. Like these
kids get the second best all year round, like they
deserve to get good things. So at least she's not
(11:37):
agreeing to do it and then getting some crappy gifts
because she can't afford a good one.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Right, Absolutely, I agree with you one hundred percent on
that one.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
For sure.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
I appreciate you called it this morning in good luck
on your exam today.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Absolutely, you have a good one.
Speaker 5 (11:50):

So apparently President Trump wants to rename football yes, you
know the football that we watch on NFL Sundays.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
He says that soccer is the real football and that
the American sports should be renamed, So of course people
online are speculating what American football should be renamed. Some
of the options include grid iron, big skin, full contact chess.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Who the hell wants to call it full contact chess?
Speaker 1 (17:39):
That sounds dumb. Can we just leave it American football
or just leave it as football?
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Like I get it.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Soccer is football and in America, football is a completely
different thing.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
