(01:04):
would you talk about on your on your podcast Firms show?
Is it really that important? What Valentine's Day being on
a Wednesday? Is it? Do you have to celebrate and
(01:25):
go out that night? Or can you wait till the weekend?
Can wait? You can wait? But there's one person in
this room, it's really bothering. Great, what happened to you?
He's not listening, but because it's you know, you're talking
about that Valentine's I mean the middle of the week
this year. What I've been saying that what weekend was
(01:45):
the proper weekend to take your love one out? I
think it could be either could be this past weekend
or next week, but it's not Valentine. If you if
you go last weekend, it's it's better than if you go.
If you go next weekend, it's like you forgot. It's like,
I do feel like the pre because there's more excitement
leading up to the events. Afterwards, it's like everyone already
celebrates am I the only idiot in here? That is?
(02:08):
But I feel like I feel like because it's a Wednesday,
it's in the center of each weekend, like if it
was on a Tuesday, then that week next year. I
think it's also like if you don't have any kids
and it's just you and your girlfriend or you and
your wife, and you don't have children, you can do that.
But if you have the kids, it's kind of difficult,
like rotrician, and to really go out and do something
on Wednesday, rather than being a weekend. Then it's much
(02:30):
easier for school, get a babysitter, then we can go
out and do something. This is a problem. What three
out of seven years like when it's in the middle
of the week. Okay, Thanksgivings on Thursday, right to made
up holiday? We can put on Thursday President's Day. We
took a bunch of birthdays. We made him on a Monday.
As a country, we need to come together Red states
(02:51):
and Blue states and move Valentine's Day to Friday. F cupid,
like it's not even a real thing, you know what, Listen,
I have always said, I always said that Halloween should
be like I'm a Saturday. So we're moving Valentine's Day
then now here. It gives me more room to stay
say that Halloween should be on a Saturday. It's about
(03:11):
Americans being happy more importantly before Valentine's Day, before Thanksgiving,
anything else. President's Day needs to be moved to the
Monday after Super Bowl? When when? Because guess what today is?
Today is Lincoln's actual birthday? Yes it is. You know
some schools are off Monday and Tuesday, and some schools
(03:32):
have the whole week off. So yes, you gotta put
a footnote. If they moved the super Bowl week again,
then the holiday moves with it because before the bye weeks,
the super Bowl was the week before, right, and then
they moved they ended the bye weeks, and now it's
a week later. So if you move it, the holiday
movement because this one you're not adding a holiday to
the calendar and people will be happy. Said you do
(03:52):
it on the day. When does America take a backseat
to a little fact. No, the problem is it's called
President's Day, so it's for Washington and Lincoln and their
birthdays are separated a little bit right, move them right exactly?
Either one of them is going to be upset same page.
So now that we all breathe, that we can move
Halloween to a Saturday. Yes, when Halloween would be much
(04:14):
better on a week your childless, what do you care?
You're going but your Halloween is that actual holiday. It
celebrates all Hallow's Eve, you guys are about. You don't celebrate,
You celebrate kids getting can And Valentine's Day is about
a saint. It's really Saint Valentine. That's there's a whole
(04:34):
day by that logic, Greg team, Then you're saying that
Valentine's Day has to be fixed on the fourteen because
it's a holiday. No, what I'm saying is because Derek
got mad and said no that Halloween and Halloween is
really a real religious holiday. And I'm and I'm saying, well,
if that's gonna be the case, then Valentine you have
to dissect and it's about a saint. And that's what
I want to forget about the religion and the whole
(04:55):
thing and go back to Brodie's case. That just make
it a Saturday, and it's a win for every body.
I'm done to address the home. I mean, you're done
with this religious stuff because it's convenient people you upset
by saying that. I don't mean to, but it's disrespectful
to people who actually we keep a then we make
(05:17):
a candy day with kids go trick or treating. That
should be the day about that observed? How how holidays observed?
I love that you're eerily quiet. I don't have a
I don't have a horse in this game. What kids?
How many kids? I'm not terribly religious. I'm spiritual, but
I'm not religious. Halloween. I adore Halloween, but I'm going
(05:39):
to celebrate it regardless of what day it's on, you know.
So it's like I think, if it but I also
think so many of these days are placed on arbitrary days,
so it it's not the end of the world to
move it, you know, like like Christmas is on the
Christmas is not actually is not actually the day that
you know, Jesus was born. It's just it was placed
(06:01):
there because it was convenient and it was already aligned
up with holiday calendars. Her So I think, if we
need to move it to a Saturday or whatever, we
should say. I can't like what he said. Forget the
religious part. I mean, no, of first, not like growing
up I grew up in a very religious household, and
Christmas was incredibly important, and so much of Christmas for
me is still like that sacredness of what the holiday
(06:24):
stood for, like when we were growing up and everything
and all of that, and and so I think that
that can be a really important part um. But I
think that it's not as necessarily tied to the calendar
as then it's okay. Then what I meant was we
can still have the religious holiday, but I would like
to bring bring out bring into it like that, you know,
the holiday observed on so like you would observe Halloween
(06:46):
on a Saturday, you would observe Valentine's. Can we move
New Year's even that? Yeah? Observed? Most people aren't the
first you can still you can. You can still have
your religious day and everybody can focus on being religious.
That's fine. And for those that don't, you still have
(07:09):
Wait a minute comes out on a Wednesday. Are you
going to tell your kids they can't get presents till Saturday? No?
I think again, we could observe Christmas on Saturday. Look
at the calor no, sorry, we got more Monday. If
you still want to go to church on Sunday on
I mean, go ahead, but thank you so much. Right,
but I'm not taking that away from you. I'm just saying,
(07:30):
observed on a Saturday. More reason why we should move
President's Day. It has no there no religion. Now you
know what we should move it to when they have
the car sales? Right? All right, So we have agreed.
Let it be written President's Day moves to the Monday
(07:51):
after the super Bowl whatever that is, okay, and we're
going to celebrate Valentine's Day on a Friday or Saturday.
Now next time the agenda Arbor Day. I don't even
know what Arbor Day. And I know this was this
is a hot is coming from the person Gregg t
who called my husband and whose British and said, do
(08:11):
they celebrate the fourth of July in England? It's the
bestive day. I mean, I understand the separation. I'm just
saying it's a separate it's that's a day you can't
move because it's tied to a Dayton history, right, correct?
What about Flag Day? That's that's what I don't let's
look it up. Flag get off a flag day. I
know what we're supposed to celebrate it by putting out
(08:33):
our flag. Although I tend to go out half masted
on Flag Day You All the Time fourteen commemorates the
adoption of the flag of the United States, which happened
on June fourteen, seventeen seventies seven, by resolution of the
Second Continental Concert. You can't move right right, so that
we can't sell about our birthdays when we want. Like, Oh,
(08:54):
this year, I've decided on people on my birthday in
June because I want to have a warm birthday in
a pool. Part know, most people I know celebrate all
months for their birthday, and I'm fine with that. Anybody
that has a birthday in December should be moved to
the summertime because it's too close to the holiday. That's right,
I like I like a winter birthday. Speak. Speaking of birthdays,
(09:14):
I've been friends with Great Tea now for about eleven years.
Great Tea one's my birthday. Wait, what what was the
big deal? I wouldn't go around the room on this one.
No one, no, no, no, because because I March March October,
it is I knew October. I know everybody else is
in the room. I'm pretty sure. Go ahead, bro do it. Well,
I forgive me. It's December, okay, you're March twenty nine,
(09:38):
February three, and you're April one like your daughter. You're
a your daughter is April fet mostly everybody yours is
the end of January, early February. Well, just happened. Just happened.
So what is it January? I know that because it's
(09:58):
four days before my try was scared eye, four days apart.
But that's but Garrett October fourteen. The other day, Garrett
and he was talking about something and and he's like,
Garrett's having a birthday any day now, isn't he. Garrett's like,
we just have you ever met someone who has a
birthday of the same month as you? And they're getting,
(10:19):
oh my god, my birthday is into Sember two, and
I got great the odds of twelve to one, big
fucking deal. That's not tons of other people have the
same like they go, oh my god, we have the
same birthday. What are the odds? I know? Not the
most unbelievable thing. Elvis Duran will never forget me because

Tripped over Daniel's watermelon bag? Okay I was telling that
I might have been wrong, but now I'm actually right.
It is NBC Olympics. If you're following it in the beginning,
you didn't say this on the podcast, so what I
was saying earlier was off the show. Okay. So I've
been following NBC Olympics on Instagram and it's very funny
because they have real people trying to emulate some of
(11:23):
these Olympic sports. For instance, I have to show you
this one. Okay, so as you look for that, but
on NBC on Instagram has it. They didn't realize it
was an NBC Instagram, but it is. But then you
found NBC NBC Sports, which it wasn't, but it is

Scary is ice skating rinks for the potholes on the
streets out hunt at the time. Do you really go
into that Corney Island place Scary wanted to do for
a living ice skates? No, it's you feel overwhelmed when

It's the mammal, the male camel toe. Yeah, that's interesting, mamal,
I saw that. I would like to lose. You know what, though,
I either you're athletic or you not. Either you're built
for it or not. And that's it. You have either
have the inherent talent you can't. It's not teach. I
think it's drive more than the athletic. I thought your

parents getting up at two o'clock in the morning to
take it. She's right, by the way. Speaking of ice skating,
can the men please wear man costumes? Okay? The guy
last night from Canada fantastic, by the way. I think
her her name was Tessa, and they were great. But
he wore like a black thing in the middle. But
his arms looked like he had pantyhose on his legs.
(15:07):
But they do know they have to do that for
to be flexible, for the for the ice skates. Stop
that they can wear sleeves. No they can't. Performing the
other men had sleeve They're gonna wear T shirts and cargos.
Why don't you have to wear to be flexible? What
I want to know with some of these these these
male skaters have me noticing if I'm apparent and I
got my I got up early like Danielle, and I
drove like two hours to like an ice skating rink
every day to get them to the Olympics. If you're
(15:28):
in the Olympics and you fall down on the ice,
shame on you. Seriously get up there. I didn't wake
up at four o'clock in the morning to get you
to an ice skating rink before school for you to
fall down in the Olympic. Honest. These are the greatest
athletes in the world, the greatest skaters in the world,
