Speaker 1 (00:00):
I will say that it was very interesting driving into
work this morning because it was like very foggy and
like the moon was all lit up. I think it
might have been a full moon. The way it looked
definitely seemed like all the elements of a scary movie.
Thankfully Jason didn't come out and like stab me or anything.
It's twelve o five now the right Nashville's Classic Rockets

(00:21):
Battle in the morning. Welcome in to Tuesday show. Now,

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Let's take a look at what is trending this morning.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Now. I went to look at all the local headlines
and basically it's shooting in North Nashville, man Dad after
shootout with Nashville police. Somebody pulls a screwdriver on another
person and I was like, Yeah, let's try to find
something good to talk about other than people getting shot.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
They say that showering during the work.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Day actually helps employees become more productive and more creative.
According to a new study, four businesses, a restaurant, an
architectural firm, and an advertising agency, oh and a lingerie
company took part in the eight week study. They said
that employees that took a shower break took a shower break,
and results showed improvement across range of areas from mood
to productivity.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
I don't know about you, but if they installed a
shower in this building.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
It probably still would never get used.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Now, if you installed a jacuzzi, that's a whole different ballgame,
which maybe I could try to convince our boss to
install a jacuzzi. That would be great, especially on the
patio that we have overlooking Broadway.

lot of piercings, but I really like her. I think
there's something here and I think your parents will understand it.

Speaker 2 (08:32):

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Jerk if he's telling his girlfriend to take all of
her piercings out when he meets his parents. Six one

is letting his girlfriend meet his parents for the first time,
but she's got a face full of piercings, and he's like,
should I tell them?

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Should I tell her to take.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Them out to make a good first impression with my parents?

Speaker 2 (09:07):
Or should we leave them in?

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Six three, seven, one oh five, nine is the number
if you want to jump in on the show. Craig
and Mount Juliet, what do you think is Tom a jerk?

Speaker 8 (09:16):
Yeah, that's a tough one. I've definitely had parents that
would like judge you like that, So yes, you just
have to be open about it and kind of be like, hey,
you know, my parents are kind of conservative, and you
know they're not really with that sort of era. Yet
maybe tone it down, you know, just when you when

(09:39):
you're around them, just you.

Speaker 9 (09:40):
Know, just the smooth things over right.

Speaker 8 (09:43):
It sucks because you don't want to make someone feel
like they can't be.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
Who they are.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
But yeah, yeah, and I see where you're coming from.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
I think The thing is, though, is like, if you're
meeting the parents for the first time, I get the
whole first impression, But if you're serious about this relationship.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
She's gonna be around a lot more.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
The parents are gonna be like, oh, sweetheart, you got
a lot of piercings since last week when we saw you.
I say, just let her roll with the piercings and
just tell your parents, Hey, I like her for.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Who she is. She's got a lot of piercings. You
want to get in?

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Sixty one five seven, three seven, one oh five nine
as the number. Is Tom a jerk for wanting his
girlfriend to take out all of her piercings when meeting
her his parents. Six seven three seven, one oh five
nine is the number if you want to get in.
Tom wants to know is he a jerk or not
because his girlfriend is going to meet his parents for
the first time, and he's worried that that first impression

(10:35):
is not gonna be good because she's got a lot
of facial piercings like nose, ears, eyes, tongue, mouth, and
he's worried that his parents are gonna judge him for
it and judge her as well. Six one five seven,
three seven, one oh five nine is the number? Is
Tom a jerk or not? For you know, thinking about
telling her, hey, can you take all your piercings out?
Let's see Charles hanging out with us in Portland.

Speaker 2 (10:56):
What do you think, man?

Speaker 3 (10:57):
You know, I think it's something that they can have
a talk about. Personally, I don't think it's a good idea.
I think that you have to, you know, really present
to your family the person that you know, like.

Speaker 8 (11:10):
Her or are in love with.

Speaker 3 (11:11):
Right if you love her for her piercings and that's
who you are attracted to, I don't.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Think you should ask.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
Her to change who she is because you know your
ego and you're worried about your family's reaction. You know,
you know, don't be so worried about what people think.

Speaker 9 (11:27):
That can ruin I think that can.

Speaker 8 (11:28):
Ruin a relationship.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Oh absolutely, it could definitely ruin the relationship, especially you know,
if it's either a new one or if you've been
dating for a couple months and then you're like, hey,
by the way, I need you to take all your
piercings out to meet my parents, but you can put
them back in after we're done.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
You know what I think. You just tell your parents. Hey, look,
I like this girl for who she is.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
She's got a lot of piercings and it's fine, no harm,
no foul.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
Right, We'll get Tom.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Back here on the phone and see what he thinks
and what his final decision is before you know, talking
to his girlfriend about her peers things and meeting her parents.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
O five nine of the Right Nationals Classic Rockets Battle
in the morning. So a lot of people from the
Rock family chiming in this morning and said, Tom, basically, brother,
you should just, you know, have your girlfriend leave her
piercings in to meet your parents, because I mean, if
this is a real thing and a serious relationship, they're
gonna see her eventually down the road with the piercings. So, Tom,

(13:12):
final judgment, after you've heard everybody basically saying, hey, just
let her leave the piercings in and hang out with
your parents, what are you thinking, man?

Speaker 9 (13:20):
Okay, And if they have a point, maybe I just
go in and just hope for the best. So yeah,
all right, I'll do it.

Speaker 7 (13:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
And here's the thing, dude, I mean, if your parents
like her for who she is, they're gonna look past
all those piercings.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
And if you love her, bro, that's all that matters. Right.

It's two O five nine the Right Nashville's Classic Rockets
Battle and the Morning. So I saw this online and
I thought, huh, this is kind of interesting. BuzzFeed put
together a list of cringe worthy pop culture moments that
age like Milk twenty years ago, so going back to

(14:18):
two thousand and five. Some of the things on the
list Jessica Alba and her underwear for No Reason and
Fantastic four. Also Diddy hosting the two thousand and five
vams and having celebrities like Nicole Ritchie and Derek Jeter
talk about his legendary parties.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
Boy, that definitely did age like Milk.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Also, if you're a fan of the Office, they say
that the Diversity Day episode has aged like Milk. Now,
I've never watched the Office, Office show. I know program
director Jonathan that's his favorite show. I couldn't tell you
anything about the Office, but I guess if it's aged
like milk and it's the number one thing on this list,
obviously it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
A good one.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Program Director Jonathan will probably talk to me after the
show about that episode.

on number one on this list as much as we
deep fry everything, but hey, how about that Tennessee not
the most obese state in America. It's what O five
nine the right Nationhville's Classic Rockets Battle in the Morning.

we love about two for Tuesdays, or maybe the one
thing that I love about two for Tuesdays is when

Battle in the Morning. And I saw this story and
I was like, why how? But you know when you
gotta go, you gotta go. Female Amazon delivery driver was
caught on two security cameras going to the restroom on
the properties of two homeowners, both this past Sunday on Mother'sday.

(17:52):
Amazon says they know who the driver was and they
fired her. But here's one of the families talking about
stumbling across multiple packages on their front porch.

Speaker 6 (18:02):
When I woke up, my husband said he was going
to bring me some coffee in a pastry. He went
downstairs and was greeted by a not only one package,
but a second inappropriate discussing package, which was essentially like
human feces and you.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
Look to be urination.

Speaker 6 (18:16):
I kind of like clutch my pearls a little bit
because I'm hold.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
On, hold on.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Who still says clutching their pearls? Obviously, this lady. It
is a two for Tuesday. And you know what, how
about a song about fighting? Because well, one song about
fighting isn't enough. Let's give you two songs about fighting.
