our eyes, we crossed our teas, all the paperwork should be in order

(07:00):
more than once. And so yesterdayyou were about to leave, and I
said, where are you going?So Corey and I went to lunch yesterday
because she can't be alone. No, that's not the case. I didn't
want to drive. So our hotelthat we're staying in is in Mill Valley,
and if we were to close,I didn't want to drive to Mill
Valley and then have to drive backto the city to close. So I
was like, what are you doing? What are you doing? And so

(07:23):
we had lunch to kill time.And I'm not hearing anything, and I'm
not hearing anything, and I'm reachingout to my real churm, my real
chers, reaching out to the loneguy, and blah blah blah, blah
blah, and I was just sodefeated. I was so defeated because I'm
like, I thought it was done. But luckily we booked the hotel last
night just in case. Right,So at around one o'clock, my husband's

(07:46):

I was, so I'm like,oh, and then I get a text

out of nowhere now approves. Wellwe got a close okay, but they're
not done. So they approved us. The documents have to go to this

what does that mean? Do Istay downtown or no? And then
they're like, well, we don'tknow. We're going to get the documents
all ready to sign. So I'mlike, okay, I'm just going to

going to take care of everything today. Wednesday. Get a phone call.

(08:33):
We got a notary coming to yourhotel at eight o'clock. I called it.

did because they were because when wegot the phone call saying Hey, we're
ready for you to sign. I'mlike, I'm not driving downtown at six
o'clock. There are people that willdo that. So the notary came to
a hotel at eight o'clock last night. Her name was Kathy. She was

(08:54):
awesome. Does Kathy have a catchynotary business name, like, uh,
notary to go or notary on thegotary. I gotta be honest with you.
At eight o'clock everything was a bloke. I was. So. She

(10:05):

barfs in Saturday, and that's reallysad that, Like my co workers are
coming up between the kitchen going,hey, how you doing you barf lately?

(10:26):
No, I got out of myhead. I said, I'm going
to own this game. It's timeto own this. Good for you.
I just read a story. Thisis slightly related. Um Bill Russell,
the All Star, All Pro,All World center for the Boston Celtics back
in the fifties and sixties. Oneof the greatest basketball players of all time
barfed before every game. Marshall Mathers, also known as Eminem, barfed before

(10:50):
the rap battle. See I mean, you're basically those guys, basically a
superstar basketball player, rapper, basically, Well, good for you you.
Yeah. I couldn't believe it.I couldn't believe it. I'm like,
what's happening. Yeah, that's awesome, that's awesome. There you go,
right six twenty five, We're gonnacheck what's trending. In a little bit.
What's up. I got some newsabout Chipotle and you're gonna like it

(11:13):
has to do with the playoffs forthe NBA and free stuff and free stuff.
So we'll get you cut up onthat at six fifty. Hang on
more variety from the two thousands,the nineties, and today it's Star one
to one three. It's Marcus andQuarry sixty one. Bad news. If
you are in the job market rightnow looking for a gig and you have
a Southern accent, you know,it's funny. I'm from Florida. We've

(11:35):
talked about it, but when Imoved out of Florida, the next state
I was in was Minnesota, andthey said, why don't you have a
Southern accent? And I said,well, Florida is a lot of different
things. You've got your Panhandle,You've got your Miami, and I'm from
the kind of the Bay Area,so there's the Tampa Bay Area, a
lot of transplants. Like my momwas from New Jersey, my dad was

(11:56):
from Chicago, so you didn't havea chance to to develop the something from
the scion. Now. When Iwent to school in Gainesville, there were
a lot of people with that Southernaccent, and that can happen. And
the thing is this study that wefound. I hate to say I agree
with it, but there's just somethingabout it. Here's the bad news.

(12:18):
If you have a Southern accent,it could cost you up to twenty percent
of a potential salary if you arelooking for a job right now. This
is a study out of the Universityof Chicago says people with strong regional accents
face a wage penalty of up totwenty percent compared to those who speak what
they call with a quote standard accent. I don't know what that means exactly,

(12:43):
Well, no accent, I wouldthink, I mean to people in
other countries, we have an Americanaccent, right exactly. But I mean,
what about Boston, Like, Ithink the Boston accents really my favorite?
I now do it, me,do it right now? Yeah,
it's hard to do without cussing.Hang on, wicked, it's gonna be.
It's gonna be wicked awesome. Letme tell you something about this job.

(13:05):
Right here, this jaw right hereis an amazing festival. Festival,
this job is amazing. Second ofall, there's no place to pock the
car. I don't know whether topock the car out front by the bus
stop or a pocket here in thebuilding where it's free. That wasn't bad.
No, I'm gonna give myself sevenon that one. But what is
it about? Because that's a veryspecific accent, So the Boston accent very

(13:26):
specific. What's different with this?Why does the Southern automatically go? I
think make you slow? And thisfascinates me because my dad was a linguist.
But I think that that's slow,drawn out drawl makes people think that
you're automatically stupid on the sun level. And we've watched way too many Forrest

(13:48):
Gump has been on television, waytoo many times, and so we equipate
he doesn't have a Southern accent.Well, he tries to, but it's
Tom Hank. Yeah, So weequate this mode of speaking with dumb and
slow and stupid. But it's notnecessarily No. I mean, who's who's
that guy that as the debater?Who the raging Cajun. He's bald,

(14:13):
he's he was in old school themovie. Okay, he's like, I'm
a very smart debater, but he'sgot a Southern accent. The other part
of it, I think is wehave so many stories out of Florida,
and eight out of ten times soI've seen this gator and the damn gator
came right up to the front ofthe house, right in front of the
porch. So I grabbed my thirtyOT six myself. Let's move away from

(14:33):
Florida. Let's get into the realSouthern states. Okay, Alabama. Point
being, Louisiana culture is such thatwhen we see somebody doing something less than
smart, in our opinion, nineout of ten times, they automatically come
with a Southern accent. So thereare preconceived notions. This is fascinating to
me. I could talk about thisall morning. Well it's I mean,

(14:54):
I hate it, but it makesme laugh. Basically, this study out
of Chicago says that people with Southernaccents have a potential to lose twenty percent
of a potential salary when looking fora job. Other people who would like
to change their voice, people thatdo what they call accent adjusting, People

(15:18):
from western New England. That's wickedawesome. I guess South Midland and New
Jersey were the most likely to altertheir accents. See, I think like
the New Jersey accents I couldn't evendo it if you ask me, is
more aggressive than a Southern accent,right, But maybe because it's more aggressive,
you would think that they're quicker andsmarter than someone who's more drawn out

(15:41):
with a southern drawl. And theydistilled it down to the most like industries
where somebody would change their accent prospectiveemployment, real estate, followed by tourism,
public service, information, technology andengineering, hospitality, finance, retail,
healthcare, and media. That's oneof my favorite Friends episodes where Ross
is teaching a new class and hehas an English accent for no reason,

(16:04):
and then he just tries to kindof subtly meet it out. Oh my
god, you just subscribe, Madonna. I did? All right, um
o, Well, let's let's let'stalk about this later because there's a lot
to unpack here. At any rate, we're gonna check what's trending coming up
next? What us you have?Would you like free Chipotle buried? Yes,

(16:26):
it has to do with the NBAfinals. Okay, talk about that
and more. Get you caught upat six to fifty Hang on Star one
on one three, It's Marcus andCory Wednesday. Good morning about what's trending
one, what's happening in entertainment news, the biggest stories of the day,
and everything people are talking about todayin the day. Taylor Swift's tour has

(16:48):
been huge, right, plays likewhat thirty songs? The show goes for
over two hours. Well, somefans who are going to the show are
having a problem. I can't rememberit. There are multiple reports that fans
are experiencing signs of amnesia after attendingher conserw is this? I love you
Swifties, but what's happening? Okay? So fans describe it as being separated

(17:11):
from reality and then literally not beingable to recall anything because they're having out
of body experiences. No, No, Taylor didn't work any sort of hocus
pocus. A neuroscientist says, aswell as being exhausting for the brain,
it's going to mean all the thingsyou experience will have a high emotional quality,

(17:32):
which means nothing stands out, andthat's important if you want to retrieve
a memory later. So the wayto prevent concert amnesia is to lower expectations
and try to remember this as amoment you do want to remember. This
makes me think of all the peopleI see at an event filming and not
being in the moment and see thatwas our guest? Was it because they're

(17:55):
not really paying attention, They're justvideoing for a video they're never going to
watch. I still haven't watched mywedding video. I was there, I
remember it right. We should probablydo that though. If you've gotten used
to Samuel Jackson or Melissa McCarthy wakingyou up or talking to you through your
Amazon Echo device, be prepared tosay goodbye. Come on. They are

(18:18):
getting rid of the celebrity voice optionsthough. No longer for sale and it's
going to be discontinued. They haven'tsaid why that they're acting it, but
after three years they're winding down celebrityvoices. No, that's the hallway.
That's people on the hallway. Thehaway shut up. Wow, the doors
closed too. No, thank godthey sound proof this place. Yeah,

(18:41):
it's really good. Sorry about that. Revealed behind the curtain. So customers
can continue to use these voices fora limited time, you can contact customer
service for refund if you want.Last day to use the voices, including
Shack Shack Diesel is September thirtieth.You're really hardy here Shack. When I'm
driving, he talks like like reallylow, but just sleep. He's really

(19:06):
low. Okay, here's some goodnews, huh. If a Denver nugget
hits a three pointer. Chipotle burritosare free during the twenty twenty three NBA
Finals, so it's the free pointerpromotion for Chipotle. Game one is tomorrow
between the Nuggets and the Miami Heat, right, and it doesn't matter if
it's a Nugget or a Heat player. If they hit a three point shot
during any of the matchups, Chipotlewill drop a text to win code on

(19:29):
Twitter. The first three hundred fanstext the code to a certain number will
receive a free Chipotle entrey. Okay, they plan to give up over ten
thousand of them, so you gota shot. Hey man, give up
aur barrito for some marketing. Absolutely, dude, I will take that burrito
every day. Great idea. Yeah, the finals start tomorrow. It's Nuggets,

(19:49):
it's Heat. This should be interestingbecause the Heat or a number eight
seed, which is the lowest seedin the Eastern Conference. They beat Boston
in the Eastern Conference Finals to wina place in the finals, which is
pretty fun. The last time theywere in the finals was twenty twenty,
which was the Bubble year. Ilike a Cinderella story. Yeah no,
that's good. And then on theother side you have the Nuggets with Nikolai

(20:11):
Joki. He's a two time NBAMVP. That guy can hit from anywhere.
He's fun to watch. This isthe first time the Nuggets have been
in the finals period. Wow,they've never won an NBA championship. I
think I'm going Nuggets. I'm notgonna lie just because just because of these
facts. Plus, you're from Florida, so you automatically get to take the
heat. That's not true because that'sMiami. I'm from Damba Bay. Nobody

(20:34):
cares. It's all the same placeyou brought it up. This should be
a good one, though. Watchtomorrow night. The NBA Finals are on
five thirty Pacific only on ABC.Don't miss out on that. Before we
leave, the sports, Giants lostA's one. Both have day games today
with twelve forty five starts. Giantstaken on Pittsburgh. I will be there

(20:57):
at the game. You're allowed totell your seats. My wife doesn't want
me to give out the seats.That's security risk or something. I don't
know. But if you but ifyou see me, holler, what if
like somebody had an issue with you, you tell what you're sitting and they
like dub a beer on you?Sam, that's what my wife thinks.
I don't know. I just wantto hug. Well, you know what,
I'm sure your wife will give youa hug or not, I don't

(21:18):
know. And then the A's areat home against Atlanta, So a twelve

relationship because his baby mom. Agirlfriend is twenty nine. It's really hard,
even though they say this is aplanned pregnancy and they are totally in
love. I need a shower.Her name is Norah, I'll follow.
She's eight months pregnant. She likesdating older guys. She dated prior to

(22:29):
her relationship with al she was linkedto Mick Jagger. Come on, she

can't pronounce, who was sixty atthe time. She apparently comes from money,
so think what you want. Butyes, she comes for money and
she knows how to get more money. This is true love, stop it.

(22:51):
And finally she should have led withthis. The c Bowl Bowling Alley

over sixty years and there was noway. The community kind of rallying,

Yeah, okay, So we're doinga segment called second Date update. We
would love for you to participate.It's our dating segment. Okay, sure

(28:22):
which date is this referring to?Um, So we want to ask you
about your date with Sandra because shewould love to go out with you again,
and to her, it's feeling alittle dodgy. So how do we
lock this down? Tell us aboutthe date from your perspective. First of
all, well, um, Imean it felt pretty good initially. You
know, all I saw was herphoto on the app first, and so

(28:45):
we talked like that, you know, via message and stuff, and I
got a really good vibe initially,and you know, after a little bit,
we thought it'd be cool because welive in the same area and a
Walnut Creek, so dating someone closeas a lot better. And sure,
I totally understood how great that wouldbe, you know, So we agreed

(29:06):
to meet up and then I don'tknow, I was kind of thrown off
when I got there and I sawher and she was gorgeous, very attractive,
but and I'm not like the conservativedude like that per se. But
she's got you know, a reallyshort short, super short shorts on.
You know, We're like her buttwas sticking out and she was wearing like

(29:26):
a top where it was pretty youknow, like her her whole stomach was
showing and stuff, but just alot of skin. I figured, for
like the first date, I didn't. I mean, I'm not sure if
if I'm being a little uh,you know, prude about it or something.
I don't think so. So itwas really kind of surprised. So
like too risque for you? Isthat the issue? I mean, not

(29:48):
necessarily on like the third fourth date, perhaps we've gotten to know each other,
but for the first date, itseemed like a lot. She said,
she's a good looking like she couldpull it off right, very attractive.
Yes, absolutely, And I meanI'm like I worked out a lot
too. I'm proud of my body. S get it. Okay, here's
the thing. Sander's actually listening rightnow. Um, sorry, so I'm
gonna I'm gonna pull her on,Sandra. Yeah, apparently you were too

(30:15):
hot for the table. So I'msorry, this is that is the most
ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Umwhat like what is this like nineteen twenty
like eighteen eighty like also it washot. I mean that's just why I

(30:38):
just can't get over how could somebodybe so conservative and prudish? Um and
how dare you, you know,cast judgments on what I'm wearing. I'm
a grown woman. I do havea good body. I'm proud of it.
You know it was hot Sandra?What was hotter you or Walnut Creek?

(31:00):
Asking? I would say me,okay, look back to Sean just
maybe it made him uncomfortable. I'mnot sure where to go from here.
I mean, is it something thatyou can get over or is this what
me I can't get I don't knowif that was a question for me,

(31:22):
but I don't want to date somebody'sas small minded and conservative. That's ridiculous.
Before I'm allowed to like show myshoulder? Is that? Is that
how you like expects women to behavearound you? I was actually asking Sean,
But now we have our answer.This makes it simple, all right?
Not a match? Hang on youguys, hang on, wow,

(31:47):
what just happened? I just think, you know, everybody has their own
sense of style. Everybody's got theirtype. Second Date Update it's seven or
five weekday mornings, replays at nineoh five. And of course the podcast
Don't Forget It's on the iHeartRadio app. It's literally called Marcus and Corey Second

they're saying more than it's been,like, it's gonna be the busiest vacation
time in a decade. I believethat when you're doing your vacation, they
have drilled down the way to havea perfect vaca. These are the top
twenty perfect moments to experience on vacation. Okay, already you're saying twenty and

(32:35):
that's exhausting that we have to dotwenty things to make my vacation where I'm
supposed to relax. Number one perfectwatch a sunset or sunrise with your friends
or family. Why do I haveto be with someone else I don't know,
so you can enjoy it in group? Is this like if you don't
have a significant other. I supposeif you're vacationing by yourself, just take
the time to wake up and watcha sunrise or a sunset. But this

(32:59):
is you have to do it withfriends or family. I think you could
do it alone. It's not psychoanalyzedtoo much. We're not going to get
past It's very specific. Enjoyed drinkswith food, or drinks or food with
a view. That means go outof your way to find a restaurant that's
got a view and make sure youenjoy the view. Like I needed somebody

(33:19):
to tell me that. So you'resaying I shouldn't pick a place that I'm
looking at a brick wall. Okay, make sure that something funny happens that
then becomes a story that you tellfor years to come. How do you
make that happen? You can't forcefunny. It has to be organic.
Okay, you guys, what I'mgonna do it with this bananappeal right here

(33:43):
before the waiter gets out here.It's gonna be hilarious. It just sounds
like a bad TikTok account. Yeah, Okay. Something else to do to
ensure a perfect vacation, make surethe orchestrat a vacation romance. Kiss what
I had? This happened to meno Acapa, Mexico, overlooking the Bay,
nineteen eighty eight. She was beautiful, I was thirteen. First kiss

(34:07):
boom. I will remember it.For the rest of my life. You
made that Nope, true story.Who was it was a scroll that okay
in Canada? Might have been afifth cousin there it is, might have
been there. Now you made memake it weird. No, you can't
force a romantic connection. But wehad one and it happened and it was

(34:30):
glorious and you're related barely semantics.This took took a weird turn. Let's
trying to have a good vacation andhere you are dragging it out of me.
Um. Something else you can doto experience a perfect vacation. Swim
in the sea. Why not?Have you been in the sea? Yeah?

(34:52):
Do you know what's in there?Hawaii is a beautiful place to go
swimming because it's basically a bathtub.Acapulco also great. The Girl of Dreams,
jelly fish. See, you're thekind of person that never wants to
leave the housing, right, No, that's not true. The beach.
I love to be by the water. I'm not going in it. It's
somebody's dinner table. I just watchedin the shallows the other day. Were

(35:13):
you traumatized in the water as achild? Is that where this is?
Is that where we are No.I've never even even been stung by a
sting, right, but I knowwhat's out there, And in fact,
we don't know everything that's out there. There's stuff we haven't even discovered in
the ocean. Someone needs to takeyour television. No, but I but
I'll I'd love to be in aboat. I love to be on the

(35:34):
water by the water, Okay,adjacent to the water. I don't want
to be in the water. I'lldo one more, make a connection with
a local person or group of people. I did this the last time we
went to uh Hawaii. We wentto South Shore, not Kna, what's
the one up north where they filmJurassic Park. We went to Kawaii wow

(35:54):
uh and we met the guy whocame to the hotel to teach the kids
how to play the local ale.I made friends with that guy and he
was he was a fun hang.You could never make fun of me for
being bougie ever again. Why so, the guy that comes to the hotel
to teach all the kids play theukule, you made friends. We went
to it and watched the sunset together, and then we had a romantic kiss.

(36:19):
He told me the greatest line.He said Marcus in Hawaii. We
don't eat till we full, weeat till we're tired. That sounds about
right. Yeah, that sounds awesome. I'm down with that. That will
stay with me forever. All right, we're gonna get more into these later

I got free burritos? Okay,okay, how about them apples?
Tell me about it. We'll talkabout it at seven fifty. Gets you
caught up. Hang on, it'stime for good news with Marcus and Corey.
Sometimes all you need is one agood thought to make it a great

(37:00):
day. So let's do this.It's good news on Star. I couldn't
stop myself and I couldn't say anything. I'm like, why is it so
quiet? You guys? I'm sosorry, and your head exploded. Hey
we're live. I had there wasnothing I could do. That was the

(37:21):
weirdest timing of all times. It'sa sneeze. Well yeah, it's okay,
because you see, you know,usually you could pinch it off.
No, hold it, I don't. I feel like if you pinch off
a sneeze. You will literally explode. I almost did. In fact,
I just did. Anyway, thankyou for enduring enduring that with me.
It is time for good news.He's trying to point to you in desperation
because oh I didn't even get that. Oh it's fine, Okay, Corey's

(37:44):
gonna kick us off with her goodnews. We're headed to Wiscans Yeah,
oh you're Darren. Twouldn't so.There is a kid named Lucas, and
he turned a community service project intohis full time hobby. This is a
five year old. He pledged tocraft a handmade birthday card for every kid
in his town. This Isntigo,Wisconsin. Wow. His mom says it

(38:06):
began as a means of fulfilling communityservice hours, but then it turned into
just Lucas's desire of giving back tohis community. He loved making these cards.
It's great. So he decided hewas going to make birthday cards for
everybody. And for his favorite part, Lucas explains, drawing inside the cards
and then outside the cards putting stickerson is my favorite. Love it so.

(38:27):
A woman whose son received a cardfrom Lucas said it made his birthday
that much more special spotlighting Lucas's wishto spread happiness and just share some joy
with the other kids, and he'sinspiring other people. How old is Lucas
A get five? Oh, mygoodness, he's a baby. That's great.
Yeah, very sweet. Doing goodnews right now. My good news
is the ultimate success story. It'sabout a guy from Washington, DC who

(38:49):
went from being a sanitation worker tograduating Harvard Law Good for him. I
love stories like this because it remindsme of the old man. So my
dad started in the lumberyard up insuper northern California, like Lasson County,
and then he ended up getting aPhD from Stanford and working the government for
twenty five years. So I lovestories like this. So this guy's name
is Rahan, and he grew upin DC. He overcame poverty and then

(39:15):
had a mysterious life threatening illness.They don't go into what exactly that was,
but he graduated from Harvard Law Schoollast week after initially working as a
sanitation worker. So what happened washe was working as a sanitation worker but
then also working really hard after hoursto get accepted to Harvard Law School.
The second that he did, hegot noticed by Tyler Perry, Oh,

(39:39):
who then offered to pay his waythrough school. Oh wow, I love
when celebrities given up. So thatwas in twenty twenty. Now he's got
a job working for a big timelaw firm waiting for him in New York,
and he has given back to hiscommunity, raising over seventy thousand dollars
for Harvard's jan and support staff,and then also founding an organization that uplifts

(40:04):
support staff workers. I think that'spretty great, awesome. What I love
the most is he realizes he didn'tdo it alone. He says, and
I quote, at every point inmy life, I can say it was
through the act of someone's reciprocity andthe community that I was allowed to get
to the next level. That's amazing. So like, this whole thing is
a group effort, and I justlove it, this guy from sanitation to

(40:25):
Harvard law respect. We're gonna checkwhat's trending in a few minutes. What
do you have? Would you likea free burrito from Chipotle? Yes?
Please? You just gotta watch theNBA finals. Oh. Also, I'm
going to tell you how you getit at free donuts from Krispy Kreme on
Friday. I like that. It'sa big day. Talk about that and
more. Get you caught up atseven fifty on Star one O one three

(40:45):
about what's trending on Star one onethree, what's happening in entertainment news,
the biggest stories of the day,and everything people are talking about today in
the day. What's Trending has broughtto you by Cash Creek Casino Resort Enjoy
world class game aiming nightlife and liveentertainment. Now, if you get to
see Taylor's Swift, that's huge becausewe know that the ticket prices are insane.

(41:07):
People like selling their card. Ifyour parents taught you tickets to Taylor
Swift, you should do whatever theysay for the rest of your life.
It's true, my child can't evenget tickets to Taylor Swift. Oh what
might even my child? Can't weget used to Reign concert tickets. Corey's

(41:27):
just mad because I call her Boogiethe other day. Now she's trying to
formulate any opportunity to call me.Really, I'm just reacting to your action.
It's a reaction to your action.So if you go see Taylor Swift,
people are experiencing signs of amnesia aftergoing. They describe it as being
separated from reality and literally not beingable to recall if anything of the show

(41:50):
now it's not Taylor doing some magic. It's a common problem when your emotions
are at a high pitch. There'sa neuroscientist that says, as well as
being exhausting for the brain, andmeans all the things you experience will have
a high emotional quality, which meansnothing stands out, and that's important if
you want to retrieve a memory later. So if you want to prevent concert
amnesia, lower your expectations and tryto remember this as a moment you do

(42:15):
want to remember. I just noticeanyone at a concert, anyone at an
event, they're always filming. Likeif you're Disney, you're filming the parade.
Do you ever really go back andwatch those videos, because nothing's going
to be as good as the realthing. You need to be in the
moment. Really difficult because everybody wantsto go viral. They want to get
that little video of Taylor doing this, that or the other thing, and

(42:37):
you lose that moment, You losebeing in the moment. I am as
guilty of it. The video isnot for you to rewatch. It's for
you to post so then other peoplecan tell you how great you are,
how cool you are for being there. I told Marcus earlier, I've never
even watched my wedding video, andnot because there's any reason I didn't,
but I remember I was in themoment. I wasn't filming Jeff while we're
saying our I do you know,just enjoy the moments POV. You're getting

(43:00):
married to the Jeff. If you'vereally enjoyed hearing Samuel Jackson or Melissa McCarthy
waking you up or talking through AmazonEcho devices, they are going away.
If if you had videoed the Jeffduring your vows, you would, it
would have just been twenty minutes ofhis broad chest and that was it.
That's it. I've moved on,I know, but he's still thinking about

(43:23):
Jeff. I know. I know. Any who, if you've enjoyed the
celebrity voices on Amazon Echo, theyare going away. I never wanted that
it was available. I forgot.But they're not going to be selling them
anymore. It's going to be discontinued. They haven't said why they're getting rid
of it, but after three yearsthey say they're winding down celebrity voices.

(43:46):
You can continue to use them fora limited time and you can talk to
customer service about a refund. Thelast day to use the voices is September.
Imagine that Samuel Jackson is your NAVvoice. I said, make a
look, that's what it. Yeah, I would not pick Samuel Jackson.
I would. They advertised it isit like that's desirable. No. I

(44:07):
like someone with a Scottish or Britishaccent. My lady has an Australian accent.
The only issue is she can't pronouncemy last name. She calls me
Marcus Nagara, which is whole heart. You kind of like it though.
I like the accent. Yeah,you like that. If you want to
free Chipotle burrito, you gotta checkout the NBA Finals because they announced for

(44:28):
their free pointer promotion. So Gameone is tomorrow between the Nuggets and the
Miami Heat tomorrow, So it doesn'tmatter what team. If any player hits
a three point shot during any ofthe games, Chipotle is going to drop
a text to win code on Twitter, and the first three hundred fans to
text that code, we'll get afree Chipotle on tree. Okay, so

(44:49):
be on Twitter be monitoring Chipotle.You hit a three, you do the
whatever? All right, that's nottoo bad. No, it's not like
you got to download an app orany that's good, all right. Yeah,
I mean you can get a burritoor a bowl or whatever. Can
I get free kuok rover is guokextra? They hit a lot of threes,
Yeah, a lot of free stone. That's a lot of that burritos

(45:10):
to the first they go bankrupt,it's still gonna be a lot of threes.
Yeah, you got a good chance. Game time is five thirty local
time as the Nuggets and the Heatare in Game one. That should be
a pretty good series. As wesegue to the sports desk, uh,
the Giants lost yesterday, the A'sone yesterday. Both have day games today

(45:32):
right around the twelve forty mark forthe first pitch, So go teams.
That'll be that'll be big. Theother thing I was talking about was getting
you free donuts on National Donut Daythis Friday. Plan for it. Krispy
Kreme offering everybody a free donut plusa dozen original glaze for just two bucks.
What do you have to do?Does nothing? There's no downloading and

(45:54):
nope, not not in this becauseKrispy Kreme knows how to do it right.
Okay, no, hoops. Youwait for that fresh red sign light
up and then you go in andyou get them. Everybody knows if you
know. You know. They justrelease the list of the top cities to
raise a family in the US.Number one Fremont, California. Wow.

(46:15):
No reaction from Jason, who livedthere for a year and a half.
But they always make the top list. That's because Fremont is amazing. It's
fine. But what is it aboutFremont. Well, they compared forty five
key metrics, including cost of housing, quality of local schools and healthcare systems,
and opportunities for fun and recreation.There was also a socioeconomic factor,

(46:36):
So apparently Fremont is the business.Those houses ain't cheap, No, they
ain't. Not at all. Othercities in California they made the list of
San Jose comes in number seven,San Francisco number ten, San Diego number
six, and California on the Irvinecomes in number three. So we're doing
something right people. Is this justCalifornia? No, Nope, nope,
nope. Overland Park, Kansas comesin number two. I believe that's outside

(46:59):
of the Kansas City area. IfI'm not mistaken. Uh so, this
is a national list of the bestplaces to raise a family. There you
go, Fremont, you get theprize. This year, the Script's National
Spelling B has begun. More thantwo hundred smart kids from around the US
are in Washington, DC this weekfor the National Spelling B. The semifinals
are today with a start time offive pm West Coast that's eight o'clock Eastern

(47:23):
final set for Thursday night. Mydaughter loves the Script Spelling B. It's
fascinating. The word that I loston and I'll never forget this. So
what grade you were you in?Eighth? Okay, go ahead. The
word was cadre, and if shehad pronounced it correctly, I would have
spelled it that way. Try wait, wait, what's the correct pronunciation?

(47:43):
First care she didn't say it,like, oh, what did she say?
Cadre? Oh boy, cadre?C A D R A R No,
No, no, no, no, that's c A d r E.
Is there takebacks? There's no takeback. Sea you meant to say
you would have gotten dinged, butyou are correct. Just see a d
r E. Here you go.I said c A D r y because

(48:06):
she said, KG, it's care. Don't you have to factor in the
Florida factor. I mean I wasin eighth grade. Okay, I gotta
wrap up. Alpaccino said to becomea dad for the fourth time. His
twenty nine year old actress girlfriend iseight months pregnant apparently, and she has
dated a lot of older guys shedated. So she dated Mick Jagger when

(48:30):
she was twenty two and he wasseventy four. Here's here's really drives me
crazy. Yes, men can procreatetill they die. But the problem is
you can't pick up your kid andyou're not going to see them graduates.
It is again, I'm gonna seehim reached kindergarten. Slightly selfish, but
he's got the Appaccino legacy. Idon't care. I get it. I
understand you're not gonna be a partof that child's life. I forgot.

mornings at eight o five am.What you know about that one Star one
one three for variety for the twothousands, the nineties, and today it's

(53:35):
Star one on one three. It'sMarcus and Corey eight twenty one. It
is Wednesday. If you're out therelooking for a job right now and you
have a Southern accent, Nope,I have bad news. Yeah. Study
just came out Southern accents could costjob seekers a twenty percent wage penalty,
that's a big amount. It fascinatesme, as the son of a linguist.

(53:57):
Accents fascinate me. The psycology ofhearing other people's accents fascinates me.
Do you think that someone with aBritish accent is going to get a better
way? I don't know what thatequates someone else. Do we automatically assume
someone with a British accent is moreeducated? Do you know what I mean?
It's like it's not true too anything, right, But then I think

(54:19):
it also depends on perhaps what typeof British accent, because like a Cockney
accent may not I don't know,governor may not sound as intelligent as a
quote unquote proper British accent. Idon't know. I'm speculating here. So
a Southern drawl some might find itscharming. I think a lot of people

(54:40):
just think because of the cadence andbecause it's just a little bit drawn out
and relaxed, that's slow equal stupid. But I don't think they think that
about Matthew McConaughey, and he definitelyhas that texas he does. But alright,
alright, point does it transcend endearingand just become what people perceive as

(55:06):
ignorant. And again I don't feelthis way. I don't think, but
like psychologically, as Americans, theystay say one of the top four accents
that people try to minimize our Southernaccents and then also New Jersey accents nor
there an England accents because job seekersthink they know that is Midwestern on their

(55:27):
Midwestern's not on here. Like myhusband did not watch Fargo for the longest
time because he felt like it wasmaking fun of his people because he's from
North to Dyoda. Fargo offend him. Well, I said to him,
like, listen, put aside theaccent. The movie is really good.
And we watched it and he agreed, the move is really good. But
literally, the character, the maincharacter, Merge, sounds like my mother

(55:49):
in law. You're darn tooton youfind something, Merge, Nope, just
gonna bar. I don't know ifMarge sounds dumb as much as does Midwest.
Does a Midwest accent people think you'resimple. It shouldn't because of the
most amazing people I've ever met inmy life. No, I'm not saying
any of this is right. I'mjust talking about our perception and also being
from Florida, people expect me tohave a Southern accent. But Florida is

(56:12):
everything from Miami to the Panhandle,so you're getting in a lot of snowbirds
end up relocating there. So they'retalking about New Jersey. My mom was
from New Jersey, my dad wasfrom Illinois. My buddy Nick, his
parents live in Florida, but they'reoriginally from Baltimore exactly. So if you're
in the Panhandle, you're definitely goingto get a Southern accent. What they're
saying is people that have a Southernaccent could be penalize of twenty percent of

(56:36):
a potential salary when looking for ajob. Another forty percent of job seekers
admitted to softening their regional accents duringinterviews because of negative stereotypes. One of
my favorite jokes was always something youdo with a Southern accent, and they're
like rectum damn near killed. Ohno, oh, Corey continuing to perpetuate

(57:05):
those Florida steris. What else ison here? Another factor here that I
wanted to share. Oh, theindustries in which people were most likely to
change the way they speak. Ohyeah, Number one was real estate,
public services. On here, informationstate, you really got to trust somebody.

(57:28):
Sure, I mean just I've beenthrough the real estate process a few
times. Let me flip the script, though, don't you inherent don't we
inherently trust people with a Southern accent? No? Don't they seem more trustworthy?
No? No? Who would youtrust more a British accent or a
Southern accent? Who don't we trustNew York accent? I try to trust

(57:52):
everybody like that. But I'm sayinglike I'm talking about, I'm talking about
people's preconceptions of someone's act, whichis too bad. It's bad that we
are judging merely on your dialect.I mean, if you go to the
coside right now and you have twocosiders talking to each other, and I
include myself in this equation, butit's a lot of dude bro raw See

(58:13):
that's that's most of us dialect asin slang. And it's like, is
that the last brob? Like youget this like thing when you're talking to
somebody Like I'm just out talking tomy boys. I'm on the opl.
We're going to check out Warren gon Saturday night. It's gonna be awesome,
dude, you know what I mean? But what does the rest of
the country think of that? Icould I could talk about this forever.
I mean, you're blowing my mindright now. There's one. It's funny

(58:36):
you said a statement. So oneof my favorite shows is Ridiculousness on MTV
and Rob dear Dick as the host, and his go to is you know
what I mean? No, whatI mean? After every sentence. It's
just a crutch. It's a crutch. But I mean, to distrust someone
just because of the way they speak, I'm going to ask the question anyway,
And I think you're Forest gumping.I would love for you that's the

(58:58):
problem. We've all seen Forrest Gumpmany times. I would love for you
to do use this as a talkbackmoment. So hit the little red microphone

six, we're gonna check what's trendinghere. In a little bit, We're

that's coming up at eight fifty standby. It's time for good News with Marcus
and Corey. Sometimes all you needis one a good thought to make it
a great day. So let's dothis. It's good as News on Star.

(59:39):
Good News is Our powered by ShrivenCompany, Luxury time Pieces, Fine
Designers, Flawless Diamonds. Corey kicksoff our good News. So there's a
five year old named Lucas who's inWisconsin and he's turned a community service project
into a full time hobby. Hehas pledged to craft a handmade birthday card
for every kid in his small townof it Tigo. His mom says that

(01:00:01):
it began as just doing some communityservice, you know, just contributing to
the community. But then he enjoyedit so much then he wanted to keep
doing it and give back. Hedecided he wanted to make birthday cards for
every kid, and that's what hewanted to do. And his favorite party,
says, is drawing the cards andthen putting stickers on my favorites.

(01:00:21):
So cute five years old. Andthen another mom whose son Eddie got a
card from Lucas said it made hisbirthday that much more special, spot letting
that Lucas's wished to spread happiness andshare joy with other kids. Was an
immediate inspiration and brought so much joyand pride to his mother. Handmade cards
just spread joy. My daughter's beengood at it for years. I'm like,

(01:00:43):
hey, so and so had ahard day. Hey, so and
so day, How to make acard? Yeah, she's like, mission
impossible. Damp stickers, drawings,stencils great. One year, for my
husband's birthday, I took a canvasthat I would normally paint on, and
I took a bunch of photos ofus, and then I took cards that
we've given each other over the yearsand cut out the stuff that was on
the cards and kind of did amontage on this thing. And I put

(01:01:07):
it out so he would see itfirst thing in the morning. Yeah,
I mean, it's it's fun.I enjoyed it. He enjoyed it.
There's thought in there. I loveit. Someone else isn't writing the words
for you. Good job on,little Lucas, five year old Lucas.
Nice work. My good news isjust a success story. And I love
these success stories. It reminds meof my dad. I was sharing last
hour. He went from sweeping thelumber yards in northern California, like Lasson

(01:01:30):
County of north of Sacramento, togetting his PhD, to working for the
government's got his PhD from Stanford,almost got picked up by immigration one time.
Really, I told the story athis funeral. It was pretty good
at any rate. This is thestory of rayhon Stanton, who grew up
poor, was a sanitation worker atHarvard and then ended up working really hard

(01:01:51):
to get accepted into Harvard Law.That's not easy, which is pretty crazy.
So he worked at Baits trucking andtrash removal. His co workers helped
him navigate the process of actually gettinginto college, got a degree from the
University of Maryland, and then hegot a weird life threatening illness in twenty
nineteen, studied super hard, andeventually got admission into Harvard Law School.

(01:02:13):
In twenty twenty. There was avideo of him receiving his acceptance letter,
and filmmaker Tyler Perry saw it andthen offered to pay his way through school,
asking to say, how did becausehe's not in Atlanta, where Tyler
Perry's base, I've had to bethis with social media. Yeah, it's
finest. Yeah. So in return, this guy has raised over seventy thousand

(01:02:34):
dollars for Harvard's janitors and support staff. And he also founded an organization that
is meant to uplift support staff workers. That's really wonderful that he's paying it
forward. He's already got a joblined up at a law firm in New
York, which I just think isgreat. Again, this guy goes from
being a sanitation worker to graduating HarvardLaw and he thanks everybody who helped him
out. He knows he didn't doit by himself, he says, and

(01:02:57):
I quote, at every point inmy life, I can say it was
through the act of someone's reciprocity andthe community that I was allowed to get
to the next level. I loveeverything about this story. Yeah, it's
really great. So it's my goodNews today. And again we do that
seven forty and eight forty weekday morningson Star one on one three. We're
gonna check what's trending. In afew what do you have who wants burritos
and donuts for free? Story onboth of those that was terrible. It

(01:03:22):
really was. I'm sorry Chipotle givenup the free burritos, Krispy Kreme given
up the free donuts. We'll tellyou how coming up at age fifty on
Star one on one three from theLittle Mermaid Movie. Obviously, I just
I don't think I'll ever get sickof that. Never. I could play
that for the rest of my life. Part of your world, Allie Bailey,
there is a video floating around ofCorey and I the duetting on that

(01:03:45):
song. The video you didn't evenknow you needed then now you have to
go rush watch. My friend Kimsaid it made her laugh or clams off.
It's I'm a Marcus and Corey Instagramright now, give it a full
What's trending on stee What's happening inentertainment news, the biggest stories of the
day and everything people are talking abouttoday in the day. So something weird

(01:04:10):
is happening at Taylor Swift concerts.People can't remember the show. Okay,
there have been multiple reports that fansare experiencing signs of amnesia after going to
Taylor Swift's concerts. And there's actuallya neuroscientist who is explaining what's happening.
So when you're super excited about something, it's exhausting for the brain. It

(01:04:32):
means all the things you experience willhave a high emotional quality, which means
nothing stands out, and that's importantif you want to retrieve a memory later.
So if you want to prevent concertamnesia, you should lower your expectations
and try to remember this as amoment you do want to remember. So
the entire Taylor Swift concert is soamazing you can't pinpoint one part to remember,

(01:04:54):
so you forget everything and you're soexcited. I mean, you think
about it when you cry at concertsor you painted a lot of times when
I don't remember a concert, ithas to do with how often I make
a trip to the bar. Butthat's definite, whole, separate sunset.
That's totally different. If you've reallyenjoyed your celebrity voices on your Amazon Echo,

(01:05:14):
they're going away. So if youhave Samuel Jackson, Melissa McCarthy,
shaqlle O'Neill, they're going away.It's no longer an option for sale and
it'll be discontinued. Amazon hadn't saidwhy they're getting rid of it, but
they did say after three years,we're winding down Celebrity Voices. Customers will
be able to continue using them fora limited time and you can get a
refund if you contact customer service.Maybe they have to pay too much,

(01:05:38):
because I would assume they have topay these celebrities. Voice definitely have to
pay the celebrities. Last day touse them is September thirtieth. Okay,
if you're a basketball fan, ifyou're a burrito fan. All the stars
are aligning. So the Denver Nuggetsand the Miami Heat have Game one of
the Championship in the NBA Finals tomorrow, and Holy has announced its free pointer

(01:06:00):
promotion. So anytime a player fromeither team hits a three pointer, they're
going to drop a text win codeon Twitter, and the first three hundred
fans to text that code get afree Chipotle on Trey. Okay, so
have your phone ready to text,and have Twitter on the Chipotle Twitter feed.
That's a lot of burritos or anyon Trey. Yeah, because three

(01:06:21):
hundred people every time there's a threepointer. A lot of threes in the
NBA these days. Yes, Speakingof the NBA obviously Finals tomorrow night in
Denver, as Corey mentioned, tipoff on that game at five thirty it
is Miami versus Denver. I'm takingDenver ory by default, being from Florida,
gets Miami. Yeah, but I'mnot from Miami. Don't care,
don't care. Record are we puttingmoney on this? If you want to

(01:06:43):
okay talking to the wrong guy,I'll do it, okay. Warriors GM
Bob Meyers leaving his post with theDubs to quote, spend more time with
my family. Twelve years or championships. He is credited with being the architect
of the current dynasty. He's fromDanville. He's gonna be stepping down and
heah the young dude. He is, dude. He is only forty eight,

(01:07:05):
which is not that old for aguy off his stature. He did
tell a cute story of like growingup a Warriors fan and if you were
a long time Warriors fan like iamy, you remember they were terrible for
a long time. He was bornin seventy five, which is the last
year they won a championship before thiscurrent run. And he talks about how
exciting it was for him to,you know, be partially responsible or wholeheartedly

(01:07:27):
responsible for their current success. Asa he used to get um Warriors tickets
as a kid when he on hisbirthday and a gift or not if they
weren't good, and then you wantto go see your boys. Right.
Oh, I know. I grewup with the Buccaneers and they suck.
Okay, yeah, see you getI get it, you get it.

My child had so many birthdays there, I'm sure, and they were great,
and they are great. The peoplethat owned it are retiring. They
sold off. I think it's goingto become apartments. You know, it
sucks because it would have been coolto somehow have the community be able to
have an opportunity to keep that placeas it was. But the Sea Bowl
