Speaker 3 (00:58):
So cute, so cute. It is Friday, everybody, And I
said yesterday at the end of the show. This week,
every day this week has felt like Monday. When I
woke up, I was like, oh, what does this feel
like Monday? But today's Friday still feels a little like Monday.
But I don't care because it's Friday. How are you,
Anthony Dandy feeling good?

Speaker 6 (01:20):
Yeah?

Yeah, well within the Christmas spirit now I'm actually within.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
I'm doing alright with my gift buying and whatnot. I've
i my husband is going to be completely surprised this
year because he told me nothing to get him zero
donut nana, and I am still.

Speaker 5 (01:54):
Of it chef's kiss. Well he'll be. He'll be the
judge because I know my husband. He'll be.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
I know we have and therefore I have bought incredibly
good gifts that are perfect for him as I do.
Do you save a Do you.

Speaker 5 (02:08):
Have a Christmas list on your phone or anything?

Speaker 9 (02:10):
Do you do that?

Speaker 5 (02:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Yeah, because no, I mean for other people. Sometimes when
I hear somebody say something or they talk about something
that they.

Speaker 5 (02:19):
Like, and I have a little list I've been doing.
Why would I do that?

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Come on, is it weird that I bought my daughter
in law gift that I can't wait to play with.

Speaker 5 (02:34):
We need context.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
I know she doesn't listen, so I can tell you
I got her one of those given slackboard things. Have
you seen him?

Speaker 5 (02:42):
No clue, It's just.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
A you know what a slack line is, right where
people can balance on the slack line. Okay, this is
a smaller version of that. It's only about ya long
and it's attached to a board, so you have way
more stability than on a slack line. But it helps
with your your balance, your corese drength. There's a lot
of different things that it helps with, and it looks fun.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Has there been interest expressed in this?

Speaker 6 (03:03):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Okay, yes, No. I know she wants it. I know
she wants so I hope that today is not the
day that she decides to listen to the show. That
would be awful, because we're pretty sure it's a big
fat surprise anyway. But I can't wait to play with
it because if I like it, then I'm gonna buy
it for myself.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
You see what I'm saying. I see it.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
It's cool, isn't it. Doesn't It look fun in a
stationary sort of way. And when you're older, like things
that looked super fun when you were a kid. As
you get older, you have experience on those things. Remember,
and this is from my gen X brethren and sisters.
Remember when you first saw the big wheel commercial and
you were like, what, I have to have a big wheel,

(03:45):
And then inevitably somebody in your neighborhood not you, at
least we didn't get one, but my next door neighbor
Steve Moore, got one, and so after Steve, after the
new had kind of went off the big wheel a
little bit. Then we got to ride the big wheel
and immediately and all of the skin off of my
knuckles hitting the brake, and I was like, well, dang,
that's not as fun as it looked on TV. Anyway,

(04:09):
trying to think of other Christmas gifts that I have
gotten over the years that you know, fell flat in
terms of funness. I'm gonna be honest, like, what's up
with the light bright? That always looked fun in commercials too?
And then you get it and you put the pegs
in and you turn it on and you're like, all right, yeah,

(04:30):
I got nothing, light bright nothing. You can always text
us on the Common Spirit Health text line at five
six six nine zero, and uh, We'll be opening up
the phone lines throughout the show. I gotta tell you,
I had fun yesterday talking to our callers. It was fun.

Speaker 5 (04:45):
You guys were.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
Interesting and I enjoyed it. I missed it. So we're
doing a little bit more of that. But we got
to start off the show today. By the way, we
have the Humane Society coming up at twelve thirty Oh,

Thumbs up for claws. Thanks a Rod. Klaus, Klaus, You're welcome. Yeah.
Did you watch you?

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (07:00):
No, because I haven't watched a movie making last night
and I went to dinner with my husband.

Speaker 9 (07:05):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
Work this weekend.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Well, we're driving to Ohio for Christmas this weekend. No,
not this weekend, the next weekend, so I have plenty
of time, okay to watch it. Then all right, so
we got lots of time coming up after the holiday
season because I'm taking some time off at the end
of the year.

Speaker 5 (07:22):
I always do. This is where I.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Saved a vacation. Oh this person said, love my giving board. Mandy.
The plural of loose would be MEAs well.

Speaker 5 (07:31):
It did. It would be if English made sense, but
it doesn't.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
Mandy. My brother got my pass down, light bright and
make artwork for hours long after the batteries died or
the light bulb burned out. Not me, Mandy. You have
to turn the light right on.

Speaker 5 (07:48):
In the dark. I did.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
It just didn't speak to me. I'm just saying, Mandy,
I'm a Chiefs fan of forty three years. But what
a Rod said last Monday about the six seventh thing
was so funny.

Speaker 5 (08:01):
Actually, hopefully this week they'll be seven and seven. Yeah. Yes,
that means I just said I hope they win.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (08:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
Let's talk about Tina Peters for a moment, because I
don't need to spend a lot of time on this topic.
I am gonna extract. I am going to expand on
my thoughts on the entire TEENA Peters situation because some
people are haranguing me on social media about it, and
I just want to I want to clear the air.
First of all, Donald Trump, as every host on this

(08:32):
radio station has said, cannot pardon Tina Peters. You know why,
because the constitution says who he can pardon.

Speaker 5 (08:42):
Article two, Section two of the.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
US Constitution states, the President shall have the power to
grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States,
except in cases of impeachment offenses against the United States.
Every time this has been considered by the court, that
has consistently been interpreted to mean federal crimes only. And

(09:10):
Tina Peters was charged with state crimes. She was prosecuted
in Mason County under state crimes by a state prosecutor,
found guilty by a jury of her peers, and sentenced
to nine years in prison. Now we can argue about
whether or not nine years in prison is a ridiculous
prison sentence, but the notion that Tina Peters in any

(09:34):
way deserves a pardon I find deeply offensive. And here's why,
because Tina Peters clearly broke the law, no matter her intent.
She turned off security cameras, she used someone else's identity
badge to get into a secure space. She did all

(09:54):
of this completely hiding everything she was doing. If she
really believed that in election integrity was at fault, was
at stake, and she really believed that she was.

Speaker 5 (10:03):
Following federal law.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
Why didn't she call the FBI and say, hey, I
need somebody to come over here and watch this while
I back up these files. There's processes that other people
in the state used to ensure their election integrity.

Speaker 5 (10:17):
She didn't do any of those.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
She took active, shady ass steps to cover her tracks.
And additionally, if you want to know why t is
probably not going to get out of prison unless a
Republican governor is elected and commutes the rest of her sentence.
She's not going to get out of prison because she's
shown zero remorse. Do you know what judges hate more

(10:40):
than zero remorse? Practically nothing? Absolutely, I mean, she has
continued to present herself as a political prisoner when she
clearly broke state law. No matter her intentions, it really
doesn't matter what she was trying to do when there
were multiple other avenues other than turning off, you know,

(11:03):
video cameras and using false pretenses and fake ID to
get into a secure room. It's nuts. How would we
look at this as people from the right if this
was someone from the left, and all of a sudden,
they were just let go. Now, don't get me wrong,
I'm sure that's what would happen. And that's the real

(11:24):
kick in the teeth here, right, isn't it That There's
no doubt in my mind that if this were a
democratic clerk of court, they would already be out of
jail by now. But they probably also would have shown remorse,
They would have taken responsibility for their actions knowing it
would get them out of jail sooner. Tina Peters and

(11:44):
her people, the people that are enabling her right now
in believing that somehow Donald Trump is going to be
able to intervene federally and get her out of prison,
you are not helping her. Someone needs to be telling
her Tea, you need to take responsibility for your actions.
You need to be clear about the fact that you
went about all this the wrong way. You need to

(12:07):
drop the Oh, if we only do this, we're going
to be able to prove that the election was stolen,
because frankly, we've now had enough time, we've had enough investigations,
we've had enough people look at everything that there is
not convincing proof of any.

Speaker 5 (12:21):
Of it anywhere. No one can produce it.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
So it's just very, very irritating that I see so
many people that I like and respect who continue to
believe that Donald Trump can pardon Tina Peters using some
convoluted legal something, something that has never ever worked before.
I think it's sad. I think it's sad that she's

(12:49):
in prison for nine years, I really do. But I
also think she's a public official elected to ensure the
integrity of elections, and instead of following procedures or bringing
in outside law enforcement, she decided to go rogue and
break the law to prove fraud that was not there.
So it's just absolutely, absolutely annoying to me that people

(13:13):
who I believe to love the Constitution can't see Article two,
Section two of the US Constitution clearly prohibits Trump from
doing any sort of pardning. Okay, that's all I need
to say about that, Mandy. Have you seen the new
adult hot wheels big wheel rally dot com They came
out with not too long ago, that allow you to
do weird power slides and drifting extreme hot wheels. Okay,

(13:36):
so when I first got here, I think I was
still on k how there was a dude who brought
big wheels to the roundabout in front of the building,
and I raised one of my former colleagues, joe Bebuloqua
in the circular on a big.

Speaker 5 (13:51):
Big wheel.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
It was fine, but they made me wear a helmet,
and I felt dumb. I was like, I'm riding an
adult big wheel. It's got three wheels, they're all on
the pavement. You guys want me to put on a helmet.
What exactly do you think I'm gonna do on this thing?
What you know, Mandy, it's oh, it's the Texans owner,

(14:11):
not the Titans. Oh crap, yes, ay, Rod, Why didn't
you correct that for me?

Speaker 5 (14:16):
I was going to win the break off air? But
now that you say it, yeah, I.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
Get it right. Yeah, I still talk about a genius stroke.
So here's what happens. So the Texans play, they win. CJ.
Stroud is their young quarterback playing for the Texans, had
a great game. He comes off the field. The owner
of the Texans is standing there with his high five
hand up. He's got his high and CJ. Troud doesn't
see him and just keeps walking by. And a lot

(14:41):
of hay was made about this. People were like, what
does it mean that c. J. Stroud didn't give him
a high five. Well, the reality is c J. Stroud
just didn't see the high five. He was high five
and people in the stands whatever. It's fine. But the
owner of the Texans had some fun with it and
made a.

Speaker 5 (14:59):
Very very funny video. And here's my thinking.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
I don't know. Do you know anything about the owner
of the Texans? Do you know a single thing about
this guy? I don't either, But I do know this
that either he had a brilliant idea and his people
ran with it, or someone in his organization came to
him and said, sir, I've got a great idea, and
he went, great idea, let's run with it.

Speaker 5 (15:21):
Either way, I like it. I like it a lot.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
I'm going to fix the Texans right now. There we
go fixing it here. Yeah. If you guys think I
spend a lot of time proofreading the blog, just read it.
You'll see I don't, cause it's you know, it's something fast.
And I had a dentist appointment this morning, So it's
a lot.

Speaker 5 (15:45):
Of stuff going on.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
Mandy, my wife's birthday is on Christmas Eve. I want
to get a spa day for her. Any good recommendations,
I know you've recommended one before, but I can't remember
the name.

Speaker 5 (15:55):
Thanks.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
You must be talking about bou Massage, can Care and
Spa bvspa dot com. That's where I go for all
of my SPA treatments, and I love SPA treatments a
little bit spoiled that way. So on the blog today
you'll see that we have a lot of other stuff
that has nothing to do with Tina Peters. But if
you have any friends who believe that Donald Trump's pardon

(16:19):
means anything except being performative, you can just direct them
to my blog. In that section of the Constitution which
clearly delineates that he can't.

Speaker 5 (16:28):
I actually think that this.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
Has probably made it way less likely that any Democrat
governor would, in any way, shape or form think of
community her sense. So there you go, Mandy. Yes, Trump
saying you will pardon her as laughable, but not nearly
as laughable as nine years for what she did. Meanwhile,
some dude goes out on parole for the ump tenth

(16:50):
time and kills a family of five, So our system
is clearly broken. That is correct, That is correct. You know,
I do think the sentence was excessive, Mandy. We're in
Vegas for National Finals Rodeo. I walked ten thousand steps
a day and did the same yesterday in Vegas, and
my legs are smoked. Why do Vegas steps hit different?

Speaker 5 (17:14):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Because the weather's really nice there right now. You're not
even dealing with heat. Maybe because it's all on concrete.
I'm just guessing, and that's just wild speculation. I think
that's it. I'm going with that. Or you got super
drunk and your legs are tired today because of it. Mandy,
I know of murderers who didn't get nine years in prison.
Let the punishment fit the crime, and please Jannick Griswold,

(17:36):
shut up. I agree with all that. It's just I
don't even have anything to add. Coming up at twelve
thirty here in a few minutes, we are going to
have Mary Sarah Fairweather. She's with Humane Colorado. They have
a fun promotion if you've ever thought about getting your
family a pet, They've got a really good deal on
pets through the Humane Society. And I did a little perusing.

(17:57):
This is a bad mistake, Anthony, because after I have
an eight year old, she's well, she's seven and a half,
seven and a half year old, Saint Bernard, and after
she goes and Saint Bernard's list, they're like eight to twelve.
If you get twelve years out of Saint Bernard, you're
doing really well. But I already told Chuck, I don't
want another dog. And this morning I went to the
Humane Society website. I found like four dogs that I

(18:22):
could easily take. Does Poppy need a friend? They have
some friends that look like Poppy. I think Poppy would
do well with a companion.

Speaker 5 (18:30):
She would, She's a chameleon dog.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
But no, Jinks would hate having another dog demanding my
attention in the house.

Speaker 5 (18:35):
She would not like that at all.

Speaker 3 (18:38):
And now that she's well, you know what, though, what
if we told Jinks now that my dog thinks she's
a person because we put her in a T shirt
and now she won't take it off. What if we
told her we were getting her a p No, we're
not getting a pet. I don't want a pet. We're
not getting a pet. We're not getting another one. Not happening.
But in just a few minutes, we're going to talk
to the Humane Society because you should get another we'll

(19:00):
do that after this. What to bring the family for
the holidays? I have a guest who might have an idea.
We're welcomed or I'm joining a joined biwum. I am
welcoming Mary Sarah Fairweather. She is the vice president of
sheltering for Humane Colorado. Many of you know Humane Colorado
by their old name. They had a little rebranding change.

(19:23):
That used to be the Dumb Friend's League and now
they are Humane Colorado. Mary Sarah, first of all, welcome
to the show.

Speaker 10 (19:30):
Thank you so much. I'm really excited to be here.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
Well, we're thrilled to have you and you guys have
a big promotion going for the holidays. But I want
to start kind of before the adoption process. What do
families need to know about bringing a furry friend into
their house?

Speaker 5 (19:48):
What do we need? What do we need them to
be ready for? I guess.

Speaker 10 (19:55):
So we would love for people to do their homework
before they come visit us. I mean, people can visit
us anytime, but if they're if they if they're serious
about bringing home a pet, we would love for them
to do their research, really think about what they're looking
for in a pet.

Speaker 11 (20:11):
If they have.

Speaker 10 (20:12):
A very active home, are they looking for an equally
active pet, or if they have more of a quiet
home or are they looking for more of a couch potato,
whether that be a dog, a cat, or rabbit or whatever.
So and then and then come talk to us. We
are we have conversation based adoptions here. We don't require

(20:38):
a lot of any paperwork. This is all about what's
best for the family and what's best for the pet.

Speaker 3 (20:44):
I have had experience with some private rescues in the
past that the requirements for adoption got absurd. I mean really,
And I understand where their hearts are, right, Like, I
get it. They want to make sure that the animals
do go to a good home. But at some point
it's like, do you really need my birth certificate to

(21:04):
make this happen? It's like, so what do people have?

Speaker 4 (21:08):
You know?

Speaker 10 (21:08):
That's that's not a part of our process. We trust
our adopters. We are developing lifelong relationships with the well.
We we want this to be a partnership and a
long term relationship with the adopters. And so this is
we we we trust the people that we were talking

(21:29):
to and we hope that they trust us back. So
it's like I said, this is this is a conversation
that we have with our adopters.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
So what can people expect? You got this promotion going
on home for the Howl of Days, which of course
is very clever. So what is that?

Speaker 5 (21:45):
What is that promotion?

Speaker 10 (21:46):
First of all, it's really exciting. We actually started it
two weeks earlier this year, which we were really thrilled about.
So we are we are offering fit fifty percent off
the adoption fees on adult pets, and there's a covey
out there that's for cats and dogs that are.

Speaker 5 (22:08):
One year or older.

Speaker 10 (22:10):
And we are waiving the entire adoption fee for all
of our small mammals, regardless of their age. So small
mammals include rabbits, guinea pigs, et cetera.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
So that's a lot of I'm sorry, I didn't know
you guys had small animals too.

Speaker 9 (22:32):
We sure do.

Speaker 10 (22:33):
We have a lot of them, and they make wonderful pets.
And I always love talking about especially rabbits. They can
you can train them, they can be clicker trained. They
can even do a little steeple competitions that you're really
inclined to train your rabbit to do that, and they're
wonderful companions.

Speaker 3 (22:54):
I have multiple friends that have rabbit indoor rabbits as pets.
They're all litter trained and you're the sweetest you know.
You say cuddle bunny, they're actually cuddle bunnies. That's what
they are. So I had no id you had rabbits
as well.

Speaker 5 (23:07):
Uh, this is.

Speaker 3 (23:10):
One of my texters said. Also ask if they can.

Speaker 5 (23:12):
Afford the pet.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
How do you help people determine what the monthly cost
of owning a dog or owning a cat or any
of that stuff. Can you help them with that kind
of get a lay of the land for what they're
what they should expect.

Speaker 10 (23:25):
Oh, sure, yes, And that's part of our conversation that
we have with with our with our adoptors. We really
we don't we don't want costs to be a barrier
for our adopters, which is why one of the reasons
that we're running this this program, and we also have
a partnership with Fetch Pet Insurance and so that provides

(23:47):
an extra safety net for our adoptors. We have two
representatives that are here on site that work with all
of our adopters, and we often find that that veterinary
care is a huge barrier for pet ownership and one
of the reasons that animals are relinquished to us. So

(24:08):
by having pet insurance, we think that that will provide
that safety net that so many pet owners don't have.
And I know for you know, I'm a pet owner myself,
and those veterinary bills are really high, and so without
that insurance, without that safety net, it might not be possible.
So we think that having that is another way that

(24:32):
we can make pet ownership affordable. They're the human pet
bond is something that is it's intangible, but it's very,
very powerful, and we want to make pet ownership accessible
for everybody.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
The Home for the howladays promotion. Does it go through
the end of the month, Yes.

Speaker 10 (24:53):
It sure does. It goes through December thirty first, And
so far we have adopted out almost eighteen hundred animals
and yeah, across our three shelters here in Denver and
in Castle Rock and in Alamosa.

Speaker 5 (25:07):
That's amazing.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
So some smarty pants said, any newborn puppies or just
used dogs these or not. You don't call them used dogs,
you call them adult dogs.

Speaker 5 (25:18):
You know, that's mary fairly Well.

Speaker 10 (25:20):
We actually we do have We do have quite a
few puppies and kittens. They are not part of the promotion,
but they need homes too, and uh and and yes
we have we have lots of adult dogs and cats
that need that need loving homes, and and we there
there are there are families that are that come in

(25:42):
looking specifically not just for the adults, but the seniors,
and that provide homes for their for their twilight years.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
My late now late mother in law had probably six
or seven dogs in the last decade of her life
because she would go get the senior dogs from the
main society and then give them the best life they
ever had for the last few years of their lives.
And she just enjoyed it. She just liked knowing that
she gave them, you know, a great sort of golden years.

(26:11):
And I highly recommend that Mary Sarah Fairweather, you can
go to Humanecolorado dot org.

Speaker 5 (26:17):

mixed with the most expressive brown eyes you've ever seen.

Speaker 5 (26:30):
Don't go look at the puppies.

Speaker 5 (27:16):
All friends for Jings. Jing says, I need a friend,
she needs a pet. We'll be right back.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
The textor just said, do you know a trustworthy jeweler
that buys or consigns? So if you're looking to sell jewelry,
I don't know. I don't know the answer to that.
If you have a suggestion, you can text it to
us at five six six nine now and I'll share.

Speaker 5 (27:36):
Them with our audience.

Speaker 3 (27:37):
Please make it someone you've already done business with, that
you feel like you got a good deal from, you know,
had a good experience. The let's see here, I want
to I have a statement to make ladies and germs,
and it's been something that's been weighing on my heart

(27:58):
for a long time. I'm gonna be honest, I don't
feel good about being high IQ every day for a
lot of reasons. Because it's a point of privilege that
I get to move through the world in a way
so many of my other colleagues and friends and family
members in the community don't get to the privilege to
do that. And I'm just a female, but just a woman,

(28:21):
a white woman. If I were a white man, I
would be functioning from a point of even greater privilege.

Speaker 5 (28:26):
I'm sure.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
I think we're missing an opportunity when kids would have
a moment to reflect on how the number of their
IQ does and does not allow them to move through
the world. It's running to them trying to stifle that
and trying to say you shouldn't feel bad about your
high IQ. So we don't want to ever expose you
to something that's gonna make you have to pause and
maybe have some internal feelings.

Speaker 5 (28:48):
It's a missed opportunity for some really good dialogue.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
Sounds stupid, doesn't it really does? Can I have my
audio for just a second?

Speaker 5 (28:57):
Who said it?

Speaker 2 (28:58):
Well?

Speaker 3 (28:59):
She said something slightly different. This is representative Sarah Stalker
from the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

Speaker 8 (29:06):
I'm going to be honest, I don't feel good about
being white every day for a lot of reasons. Because
it's a point of privilege that I get to move
through the world in a way that so many of
my other colleagues and friends and family members of the
community don't get the privilege to do. And I'm and
I'm just a female, but just a woman, just a

(29:26):
white woman. If if I was a white man, I
would be functioning from a point of even greater privilege.
I think we're missing an opportunity when kids, When kids
have a moment to reflect about how the color of
their skin does and does not allow them to move

(29:47):
through the world, it's running running to them and trying
to stifle that and trying to say you shouldn't feel bad.
So we don't want to We don't want to ever
expose you to something that is going to make you
have to pause and have maybe some internal feelings. It's
a missed opportunity for some really good dialogue.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
So I reached out to my friends in Kentucky and
I was like, what is this dame about? What is
happening here? She was responding to a bill that would
ban DEI from the school system in Kentucky. And I've
got I got the longer video. I found the longer video.
I just haven't had time to go through and chop

(30:28):
it up for you. But let me just tell you
about where Representative Sarah Stalker lives in Louisville, Kentucky. She
lives in a neighborhood completely full of white people. It's
an upper middle class neighborhood. I know because I lived
in that same neighborhood. Louisville is a fascinating city because

(30:51):
what Representative Sarah Stalker is not going to tell you,
as she's virtue signaling here to make her make herself
look more aware, more you know with it. Louisville is
mostly segregated. Most of the black folks live in the
West End. Your upper middle class, your upper level black
folks will not live in the West End. But a
vast majority of the black folks live in an area

(31:13):
called the West End. And it's not that they have
a lot of racial animus. It does exist. But every
couple of years, a member of Congress used to be
John Yarmouth, don't know who it is now will show
up in the West End with a giant cardboard check
and then not do a damn thing for the people
living in the West End. Their educational system is an
unmitigated disaster. So all of her big talk about privilege,

(31:38):
all of that stuff. Never feel bad or conversely, never
feel proud about immutable characteristics that you had nothing to
do with that are just the stroke of the genetic pen.
Be proud of things you earn, but conversely, don't ever
feel bad about it either.

Speaker 5 (31:59):
Stuff you can't control.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
Children, white children should be made to feel bad about themselves.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
Good news.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
Though the Republicans run the House of Representatives in Kentucky,
this woman has little to zero influence, as it should be.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Accident and injury Lawyers.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
No, It's Mandy Connell, Mandy Dona KA, ninety one FM.

Speaker 4 (32:29):
God Way, Study Kenney, three Many Donald, keeping your sad bab.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
Well the Local.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Welcome to the second hour of a Friday edition of
the show.

Speaker 5 (32:44):
I'm Mandy Connell. I got right, there is Anthony Rodriguez. Together.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
We'll take you right through the three.

Speaker 5 (32:51):
P well the two pm, hour two. Never mind, Koe
sports are three.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
So I will let's see how we say that.

Speaker 5 (33:02):
That's a good one. That one's gonna be. That's a
keeper right there.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
I've been exchanging messages with a host that I used
to work with a long time ago. We had a
very acrimonious falling out, and he reached out and apologized,
and now we've began sort of reminiscing about the fun
stuff that we did. And he said, lately, I've been
thinking about all the drops, Anthony, apparently at some point
in my life, and if you don't make this a

(33:30):
drop here, because it would be stealing from another show
and it would be tacky. But at one point I
said the phrase, well then fart in your damn hand
and smell it then, And that's the one he reminded
me of. Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that one. Forgotten
about that one. I do want to go back in time, though,
because I thought about this yesterday. Back in the day,

(33:51):
like when you watch mad Men or one of those
old corporate traumas, is like, oh, I'm gonna get my
check for the big Christmas bonus, you know, back when
companies did a Christmas bonus. If your company still does
a Christmas bonus, I guarantee you you are among the few.
That being said, something popped into my mind and I
literally laughed out loud.

Speaker 6 (34:14):
So this was.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Two thousand and five, and as a Christmas bonus for
everyone in the building.

Speaker 5 (34:23):
At this radio station, the owners gave out honey baked ham.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
Not a ham, No, they gave out a coupon for
fifty percent off a half ham at Honey Baked Haam. Now, y'all, Honey.

Speaker 5 (34:39):
Bakedam was our client. They were on the air.

Speaker 3 (34:43):
So you think the owner could go and say, look,
you know what, let's do a little train, let's just
give everybody into building a ham. But for the owners
of this company, that was a bridge too far. That
was a little too much do. So they decided to
give us a coupon for half off a Honey Baked Tam.
By the way, I did not redeem said coupon because
at that time I wasn't making enough money at that

(35:04):
company to afford half of half of a Honey Baked Tam.
And I love honey baked tam. A nothing wrong with
a honey baked tamp. You know what they do really
well at the Honey Baked Tam store a rod and
this is in no way an advertisement. They do a
mean ham sandwich there. The bread is.

Speaker 5 (35:20):
Good, it has good lettuce on it.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
It's just a good, really good ham sandwich at the
Honey Baked Tam. A lot of people don't know you
can get the ham sandwich at the Honey Bakedam store.
Now I want one. I might have to have that
for dinner at some point, or lunch at some point.
That being said, I wonder if anybody else got a.

Speaker 5 (35:39):
Worse Christmas bonus.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
So I'd love to know that. You can text us
at five six six nine. Oh but Anthony, let's open
up the phone lines again. I know no, I just
want to see I just want to talk to people.
This week has just every days felt a little like drudgery,
trying to find news that isn't all negative or political
or whatever. So it's an ask me anything kind of day,

(36:04):
and we can do ask me anything via the text
line at five six six nine oher, or you could
call three oh three seven one three eighty five eighty five.
Three oh three seven one three eighty five eighty five
is the number. I'm going to the text lines, Mandy,
ask you anything. If you and a friend are out
for a walk and having a conversation and you go
under a bridge, just your.

Speaker 5 (36:25):
Voice cut out.

Speaker 3 (36:26):
Okay, that's really funny because when you are listening on
the stream and you go under a bridge, you know what,
the next time I am walking with a friend and
I walk under a bridge, I can assure you I'm
going to do this very thing. I'm my mouth is
gonna keep moving, by the way, I'm gonna keep I'm
gonna keep moving my mouth as we walk under, and
my friend will be confused, and then we'll get to

(36:47):
the other side and I'll just keep talking. I love that.

Speaker 5 (36:52):
Uh, Mandy, was Louisville below your standards?

Speaker 3 (36:57):
I'm not sure I could live around a weird city
life this So what they're referring to is I played
the audio of representatives Sarah whatever her name is, in
Kentucky and live. I lived in the same neighborhood she
lived in she lives in now. She was on the
town council before she was elevated to the legislature. I
loved my time in Louisville. I loved it. It's a

(37:19):
beautiful city and I'm just gonna say this for you guys,
and every time I say it, people are like, what
are you talking about? Louisville's food scene is off the hook.
It absolutely clobbers Denver's food scene.

Speaker 5 (37:33):
I stand by this.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
Okay, we have way better Mexican food and tacos here
in Denver. But other than that, in Louisville, Kentucky, you
can find any kind of cuisine at pretty much any
price point, and the food is always dynamite. They have
two culinary schools there, so young people go to culinary
school and then they open up these tiny restaurants that

(37:55):
are incredible. Their sort of gold standard restaurants are off
the hook. I mean, it's a neat, neat town. However,
the hardcore progressives there are the nastiest group of people
I've ever had to deal with in my entire career.

Speaker 5 (38:10):
Straight Up, they.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
Were nasty, they were vicious, and I don't I don't
like them, but they've lost a little bit of power
in Kentucky, just not in Louisville. Mandy, I work for
a company that gave us a certificate for a honey
baked tam not a practical gift for those who keep
kosher Now that's just bad form. They should have something
different for you. Here's a briskit. There you go, honey

(38:35):
baked tam bacon. Best I've ever had. Oh, I am intrigued, Mandy,
I'd rather have a membership to the Jelly of the
Month club. Great reference to Christmas Vacation. Well done, Mandy.
Oh Ay Rod's wearing his Christmas vacation shirt today, Mandy Mayo,
were mustard on the ham sandwich?

Speaker 5 (38:55):
Do I have to pick chest wine?

Speaker 3 (38:57):
And I like? I like like a grainy mustard your hand.
I know, I'm just saying, hey, I don't discriminate against mustard.
I just have mustards that go on different things. Nope,
for the instrument. The other day I met, I was
making a vinegrette salad dressing, a honey mustard vinegrette salad dressing.

(39:18):
And I went to my fridge and I opened my door,
and I looked at my mustard shelf, and I was like,
do I want the horse radish mustard, the stone ground
Dijon mustard?

Speaker 5 (39:27):
How about a little dill mustard? Nope? I do I
want to just stone ground? Do I want the yellow mustard?
What do I want yellow? I went with a horse
Radish mustard.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
By the way, barf yep, delish, barf absolute delish.

Speaker 5 (39:42):
Mandy, it's Nia. A station here in Denver gave us
a generic.

Speaker 3 (39:46):
Christmas card and a keychain from the station swag closet.
There you go, There you go, Mandy. Can you give
me two mustards in the Tokyo or Kyoto area for reference?
My kids are twenty Also two foods to try in
Japan okay so takeyami are the octopus balls. You can
get those in Kyoto. They're basically like no, they're like counkfitters.

(40:10):
They're like hushpuppies with octopus and they're delicious. You've got
to have the sushi in Tokyo at the it's now
kind of a tourist area. It used to be the
wholesale fish market, and I can't remember the name of it.
But if you say, where's the fish market where the
tourists go, they'll tell you everyone knows. The sushi there
is just like off the boat and incredible. Kyoto. I'm

(40:35):
telling you right now you could spend Chuck and I
actually are planning our twentieth anniversary vacation trip, which will
be in a couple of years and we're going back
to Japan for a week and we're gonna spend like
three or four days in Kyoto. By itself, it is spectacular.
There's so much history there. There's so much to see
in that area, and it's stunning. Like Kyoto, Osaka, my

(40:58):
favorite part. Tokyo is a big city, cool, big clean city.
But it's a big city. Right if you've been to
a big city, you've been to a big city. But
look up, there's all kinds of stuff to do. You've
got to go to the.

Speaker 5 (41:15):
Oh no, what's the name of the neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (41:16):
I cannot remember what the name of it's the neighborhood
that is the more traditional neighborhood in Kyoto where the
geisha are. And we saw geisha and they were getting
ready to go to an appointment and they were all
getting in a mini van, which was a little jarring.

Speaker 5 (41:31):
But there's so much to do.

Speaker 3 (41:33):
I would say, get a foters guide, some kind of
fod R.

Speaker 5 (41:37):
I love foters.

Speaker 3 (41:38):
I think they do the best job out of all
of them. Get a foters guide. They have tons of
stuff to do. One morning about Kyoto. If you're planning
on going to the monkey park, it's at the top
of a hill, like the tippity top.

Speaker 7 (41:54):
Of the hill. Good.

Speaker 5 (41:55):
You got to earn monkey time.

Speaker 3 (41:57):
Well, we earned it in the blazing heat and humidity.
By the time I got it to the top of
the monkey hill, it looked like I had just been
in a sauna in my clothes. That's how sweaty and
wet I was because it was so humid. Oh and
then it started just drizzling to make it even more humid.

Speaker 5 (42:13):
One must earn thy monkey time.

Speaker 3 (42:15):
I liked the monkey park. Chuck just called it monkey
poop Park because there was a lot of monkey poop.

Speaker 5 (42:21):
I thought it was cool. I liked the monkey Park.
I love monkey I'm just saying.

Speaker 3 (42:27):
Mandy Clark Griswold arguably got a worse Christmas bonus than
half a ham, Yes he did.

Speaker 5 (42:31):
And almost a kidnapping charge.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
Yep, Mandy, I saw this dad joke the other day
and loved it, so I'm passing it on.

Speaker 5 (42:36):
What do you call a wreath that is made of
one hundred dollar bills? Ready? A wreath of Franklin's. Yep,
that's good.

Speaker 4 (42:45):
I like it a lot.

Speaker 3 (42:48):
Mandy worked for Big Bus home improvement store and one
year we all received a twenty five dollars gift card
to the store, and you couldn't get cash back if
you bought something.

Speaker 5 (42:58):
For a dollar.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
That's unfortunate, Mandy. Lol, tacos are overrated and way too expensive.
Let me tell you something, A great taco. A great
taco for me is a work of art. What kind
of tacos do you like, a rod? Do you do
a variety or you like a one kind of taco?

Speaker 7 (43:17):
Guy?

Speaker 5 (43:17):
Uh? Typically, for the last while, it's been all pastor. See,
I like to get like three different kinds.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
If I'm going to a place that has six different
kinds of tacos, I'm getting one of three different kinds.

Speaker 5 (43:30):
That's what I'm getting, Auto bott of It's done right.

Speaker 7 (43:32):
Al Pastor is always a go to and recently, but
it has to be also done right b the Oh yeah, those.

Speaker 5 (43:39):
Are solid choices. But I always start. I always have
a shrimp taco first, and then I have something else
to go with it.

Speaker 3 (43:44):
I just don't know, Mandy. When you get back from vacation,
could you ask Michael to trade time slots with you?
I miss the Mandy rossover. Also, this would solve the
volume of your head phones.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (43:57):
Jared, that's funny. It's concerned people. It's concerned that Michael
Steff is a post Mandy. I don't know if this
is the worst bonus or not. My company is offering
seven hundred dollars to anyone that is available to work
for the twenty third of December to the second of January.
That's equivalent about one day's salary in my industry. I mean,

(44:18):
for one day. If they're gonna put that on top
of my salary. See, I was always the person that
volunteered for that stuff. It's like, Oh, you're gonna get
me a time and a half. Y'all be here, Mandy.
If you could do one radio show with a famous
DJ or radio show host, alive or dead, who would
that be? It would absolutely be Rush Limbaugh. And there
can be no other answer. Anybody who says else. I mean,

(44:41):
you know, anybody who says differently is is just lying.
Why wouldn't you all right? Opie is calling from Englewood.

Speaker 11 (44:48):
Once you got Opie, Mandy, longtime listener, first time caller,
I'm so pleased to talk to the person keeping ignorance
of faces pint.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
I'm trying, I'm trying.

Speaker 5 (45:01):
I think you're doing a You're doing a heck of
a job.

Speaker 3 (45:06):
Yeah, exactly. So what are you thinking about? You're just
calling to compliment me, which is perfectly fine, opie. I'm
perfectly called with shameless compliment calls. But I have a
feeling something else is on your mind.

Speaker 5 (45:18):
Okay.

Speaker 11 (45:18):
So I'm making peanut butter and jelly sandwich, right and
I'm trying to use the healthy peanut butter. The healthy
peanut butter. It's all that nasty goo. How do you
do you have a solution for stirring up nancy peanut
butter so it's all not all nasty and gooey. It
looks somewhat appetizing. Okay, absolutely for me.

Speaker 1 (45:33):
I do.

Speaker 3 (45:33):
When you buy the peanut butter, the secret is to
put it in your cabinet upside down, so that way
the oil works its way back up to the bottom
of the jar. And then when you open said peanut butter,
you just take a knife and you stab it like
you're trying to merge somebody. You just stir it as
hard as you can.

Speaker 5 (45:50):
But at least that way the oil doesn't all slop
out the top as you're trying to stir it together.

Speaker 3 (45:54):
Now here's a question. Are we talking crunchy? Are we
talking smooth? What are we looking at here?

Speaker 5 (46:00):
That's Kirkland brand, So it's it's this one smooth.

Speaker 3 (46:02):
Okay. See we we're a crunchy peanut butter family. And
for some reason, I find the crunchy version of the
natural peanut butter separates.

Speaker 5 (46:10):
Less than the regular version. I don't know why.

Speaker 3 (46:12):
I have no idea, but it seems to separate less.
But try the upside down thing. But if you've already
opened it, you're kind of screwed, and you just have
to hope for the best, just like put on a
rain jacket, you know, so you don't get it all
over you, and just shove that knife down there and
stir it around as as much as you can't.

Speaker 5 (46:28):
The key is, you got to use it enough. So
does it resettle?

Speaker 3 (46:31):
Right?

Speaker 5 (46:33):
That's my take on natural peanut butter. Ignorance is now
then kept it. Thank you so much, Matt Cophie.

Speaker 3 (46:39):
I'm a good one. I'm here to help people. I'm
here to help. Let's go to Tony in Firestone if
you want to call three oh three seven to one,
three eighty five eighty five Tony, what you got.

Speaker 12 (46:52):
Hey, it's a Japan thing. Are you gonna take the
bullet train?

Speaker 3 (46:56):
We took the bullet train on our trip in our
Mandy Connell adventure that we went in last June. Took
it from the port in Osaka to Kyoto and it
was glorious and.

Speaker 5 (47:08):
That wasn't very far. So what Chuck and I want
to do. We're gonna fly into Tokyo.

Speaker 3 (47:11):
We're gonna take the bullet chain up bullet train up
into the Kobe region, which we didn't get to go
to at all, and then back down to Kyoto and
Osaka and spend a few days in Kyoto and Osaka,
and then we'll take the bullet train back to Tokyo
to catch our flight home.

Speaker 5 (47:25):
That's kind of the rough sketch of what we're looking
at now.

Speaker 12 (47:28):
H All right, hey are you so? Are you going
to be in Osaka for a little bit.

Speaker 3 (47:34):
We're gonna try and do Osaka in Japan over like
four days. I mean Osaka and Kyoto over like four days, Okay,
so kind.

Speaker 5 (47:40):
Of that way.

Speaker 7 (47:41):
Okay.

Speaker 12 (47:41):
So there's a place you have to go. It's called
the Hanshin Department store, the hand Shin department department store. Yeah,
but the whole bottom floor is an amazing fresh fish
market with a ton of sushi.

Speaker 5 (47:54):
And that's in Osaka.

Speaker 12 (47:57):
Yeah, okay, right by the Hilton there.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
We didn't go to downtown Osaka. We went to like
the tourist area. Osaka is like the Orlando of Japan.
That's where all the theme parks are. It's very, very touristy.
So we were in the touristy part of Osaka, but
we were not in like the real.

Speaker 5 (48:15):
Part of Osaka, you know what I mean.

Speaker 12 (48:17):
Oh yeah, Well, look for the Osaka Hilton and then
you'll find the Hanshin Okay, you trust me, you'll be happy.

Speaker 3 (48:25):
I'll put it on the list because we were planning
and we're work a few years out, but that'll I'll
make sure I write that down. I appreciate the call, Tony.
I like little tips like that when you're traveling. I've
had people say things like, Okay, when you get to
this city, you got to go to this street and
there's a restaurant. You go to the right, there's a
tiny little restaurant and inevitably, it's the best food I've
ever had in my life. If we can find it,

(48:47):
you know, so I love those little tips for travel.

Speaker 7 (48:50):
I do as well, but I gotta be honest, I
don't really need them much anymore because Chad GBT oh
my god, traveling game changer.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
Yeah, chat is good, but I love the things where
people are like go in and tell Maury that we
said hi, and we go in and like hey, I
always do it just to see if they're going to
respond in inevitably no way. So then you get like
the star treatment, you know, and I love star treatment.
Who does it?

Speaker 5 (49:16):
I mean, I'll do that like hey, I know the owner,
but it's like, hey, we I had a good time there.

Speaker 3 (49:20):
It's like yeah, yep. Now I absolutely can't wait to
go back to Japan. And that's not what I was
talking about. That's that's I mean, that's not normally what
I do. Chuck and I liked it. We want to
see everything. I want to see the whole world before
I die parts of it. A friend of mine, I
want to see the world. You want to go to
Sea World?

Speaker 5 (49:40):
No, no, no, I want to see see the world. Okay.

Speaker 3 (49:44):
I've been to Sea World many many times. Okay, love
Sea World. It's still my favorite park out of.

Speaker 6 (49:48):
All of them.

Speaker 5 (49:49):
It's another office reference. I'm sorry, the Otter and the
Walrus show. Forget about it. That's like the best part
of SeaWorld.

Speaker 6 (49:55):
No.

Speaker 3 (49:55):
A friend of ours just told us today he and
his wife and his two suns are going on a
round the world trip from January to June eighty next year. No,
like one hundred and thirty days. They're spending a month
on four or five different continents. I just think that's
like the coolest thing ever.

Speaker 5 (50:14):
I want to know how much that costs. Well, they're
travel people in the industry.

Speaker 3 (50:20):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know how they're doing it,
but they're doing it, and I'm just like, dang it,
I'm doing that when I retire, I'm doing that somehow.

Speaker 5 (50:26):
That is my goal.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
You know, they say when you're in, when you're headed.
You know, I'm not near retirement. I'd love to be
near retirement, but I'm not, so I am you know.
At that point though, or Emily started to think about like,
what do you want to do in retirement, and they
every planner says, the bigger the goal you have, the
better you're going to be disciplined about saving for that goal.
So my goal is I want to travel around the world.

(50:48):
I'll take like six months and just zippity do to
around the planet. I just think that would be the
coolest thing ever. Anyway, So I did not mean to
go down that tangent. Nobody else has a worse a
worse one. Oh, here's a tip for Opie, Opie, if
you're still listening, Mandy, stick the peanut butter in the
microwave for about twenty five seconds or so to warm

(51:09):
it up, and it makes it a lot easier to stir,
so you don't wear us wear the oil. Yeah, I'd
spend radio airtime with Paul Harvey. That's a good one too, Kevin,
that's a good one, Mandy. We just got cookies, literally,
an individually wrapped cookie. It looks like a chocolate chip,
but I'm afraid to open it and be disappointed. I

(51:31):
don't mean to scare you, but it could be oatmeal raisin.
So maybe wait until somebody else opens the cookie. That
way you can manage your own expectations, or just throw
it in the garbage if it has raisins in it. Mandy,
what about Casey casem Guys, I'm a talk girl through
and through. I did music radio for three months, the

(51:53):
longest three months of my life, and no offense to
my wonderful colleagues here in this building.

Speaker 5 (51:59):
You're working music radio and just crush it.

Speaker 7 (52:02):
That is not for me.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
So I'd definitely be with a takost and not a
music person like Casey casem So there you go. Last
night my husband made ground elk and bacon tacos.

Speaker 5 (52:13):
They were a dream. That sounds delicious, man, Mandy.

Speaker 3 (52:19):
Mexico City, downtown, deep fried tacos unbelievable.

Speaker 5 (52:23):
You can go in before a Rockies game.

Speaker 3 (52:25):
I will probably never darken the doorstep of Mexico City
again in my life.

Speaker 2 (52:29):
Been there, done that?

Speaker 9 (52:31):
What was that?

Speaker 5 (52:32):
It's not the right part of Mexico.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
Well, I just did not have a good experience there.
I will not be going back, and I'm okay with that.
And Chuck doesn't care. Okay, we're gonna come back. Ask
me anything five six, six, nine oh three oh three,
seven one, three, eighty five, eighty five. If you want
to call Mandy, let's keep it real. You're never gonna retire,
You're just gonna run out of airtime. Oh, my friends,

(52:57):
trust me. If they keep me around until I'm ready
to retire. I will retire, or maybe they'll just fire
me before then. You never know. Don't make this a
drop here because it would be stealing from another show
and it would be tacky. Well, then fart in your
damn hand and smell it. Then the ancient Philip rivers
coming back. And I heard Ben say on the morning

(53:17):
show this morning. I was driving to the dentist, so
I was listening to Ross Rue in the day and
Ben said, there's a chance he might actually play this weekend.

Speaker 5 (53:28):
Oh, it sounds like it's more than a chance. Well, apparently,
be a surprise if he doesn't.

Speaker 3 (53:32):
And now this Texter said, Mandy Lindsey Vaughn won the
downhill at San Maritz. Wow, she's an old as well.
She's been out of ski. I mean, this is just
what you're gonna do coming on. Uh wow, I'm out
of that window.

Speaker 12 (53:45):
You know.

Speaker 3 (53:46):
I'm my fifties. Now, nobody's coming back into the NFL
in their fifties. Huh, not yet. No, nobody's downhill racing
in an incredibly high love in their fifties. It's not happening.
He noticed, how we have a senior golf tour right like,
and men play golf into their you know, on that

(54:06):
tour into their eighties.

Speaker 5 (54:08):
We don't have a senior football league. No, no, no,
the guys don't want to do it.

Speaker 3 (54:14):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 7 (54:15):
I've lost track how many ex NFL players I've come out.

Speaker 5 (54:20):
I have come out and said, oh, my arm's still good.

Speaker 3 (54:22):
I could do it like Philip yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (54:25):
Yeah, But what about the rest of you. He can't
take a hit exactly.

Speaker 3 (54:29):
Well, if you need Philip Rivers on the field, he'll
be in the pocket. Anthony.

Speaker 7 (54:33):
Well, that's the funny thing. If a wants to come back,
it's him. That's exactly where he was in his playing days.
He was not a runner every no, no, So here's
the thing, you guys.

Speaker 3 (54:41):
ACI Weather forecast Sunday's game between the Chicago Bears and
the Cleveland Browns. It's calling for a high of ten
degrees with wind chills around negative ten. It's expected to
be one of the coldest games in Soldier Field history. Now,
I I'll not share this with my husband, but if

(55:01):
you called him right now, Anthony.

Speaker 5 (55:03):
You know what Chuck would say about this football exactly.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
And I'm like, not for me, nope, And I want
to as Broncos fans that have been here for a
long time, that have gone to these games, what.

Speaker 5 (55:14):
Is the coldest you've ever gone to a Broncos game?

Speaker 3 (55:17):
Because I went to one game where, honestly, it was
a night game and it was like twenty five degrees.

Speaker 5 (55:23):
I was cooked by the by halftime, I.

Speaker 3 (55:26):
Was so cold. I could not get warm, and I
had on a coat and layers, and I mean, I
was just so cold. But there were crazy people at
that game not wearing shirts, And there's gonna be crazy
people at this game not wearing shirts, so they get
frostbite on their nipples and then they're going to be
really sad they didn't put on a shirt.

Speaker 7 (55:44):
December one, twenty thirteen, I believe, is the one I'm referencing,
Broncos hosting the Chiefs. I was security at the game.
I believe the temperature was twenty oh and I yeah,
it was freezing and I just had to sit there
and freeze to death.

Speaker 5 (56:00):
Yeah, man, it was cold. Yeah, a wind chill around
eleven degrees is what this says.

Speaker 9 (56:05):
That was no.

Speaker 3 (56:07):
No, And if you know those tickets that we get
here at the radio station, you'd think that because we
work for the Broncos station, we'd be like right next
to No, we're up close to God so he can
hear our prayers for the Broncos.

Speaker 5 (56:20):
So we're in where the wind is whipping up there.

Speaker 7 (56:22):
You said, chill of minus ten real feeling, that's what
they're looking at right now. Apparently January thirteen, twenty twenty four,
between the Chiefs and the Dolphins, the wind chill was
are you ready for this?

Speaker 5 (56:34):
Minus twenty seven. That's just absurd at some point, that's
just not safe to be out in.

Speaker 3 (56:39):
Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (56:41):
That's crazy, absolutely crazy.

Speaker 7 (56:44):
Broncos had went in October of five years ago fourteen
degrees and apparently the game in Kansas City that holds
a record for the coldest Broncos Chiefs game ever air
temperature on December eighteenth, nineteen eighty three zero degrees with
a windshill of minus thirty.

Speaker 5 (57:03):
Oh no, no, why would anyone? Why would anyone do that?

Speaker 7 (57:07):
And you know, Manny, my first thought here in the
temperature about that today, there are definitely gonna be those
shirtless dudes exactly, and.

Speaker 3 (57:17):
Then their nipples are gonna get frostbite, and then they're
gonna be miserable telling you don't do it, Mandy, when
your beer begins to freeze on the way back to
your seat. Fun, No, not fun. This is one of
the reasons that when I was a Miami Dolphins fan
and I work for sports radio and we have the Dolphins,
and they would say, Mandy, do you want tickets to
go to a game? And I'm like, oh, look at
the month September. No, thank you, because it's a billion

(57:39):
degrees there. It's like watching football on the sun, but
a swampy sun because it's humid, dew. It's miserable. You
buy a beer, you turn around, your beer's eighty five degrees.
It's awful. So I totally get that if your beer's
freezing on the way back to your seat. No, I'm
not doing that, Mandy Baltimore. Playoff game ra he More game?

(58:01):
So what year was the raheem More game?

Speaker 5 (58:02):
We're not talking about that game?

Speaker 2 (58:04):
What are we doing?

Speaker 5 (58:04):
People?

Speaker 13 (58:05):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (58:05):
Bringing up bad to get out god a game in
two thousand and three minus ten degrees. My water froze, Well,
that's your problem. You're drinking water. And I'm just kidding.
Raven's playoff game with the incredible ending yep, yep, yep,
a lot of people, Mandy, I do. I don't remember
the exact temperature, but I do remember that every time

(58:26):
I wanted to take a drink of my beer, I
had to jab a hole in the ice layer with
my finger.

Speaker 5 (58:31):
Pat, Do you know it's too cold at a game?

Speaker 4 (58:34):
You know?

Speaker 3 (58:34):
Yeah, Mandy, I don't know about this Christmas bonus stuff
you keep talking about. I can choose to take the
day off that if I take the day off, I
won't get a full paycheck, So I just work on
Christmas and all the holidays really, so that I can
have a full paycheck and not have to worry about
not getting a full paycheck. Do you at least get
time and a half? And if not, why do you
still work there? Genuine question?

Speaker 7 (58:56):
Apparently, according to AI okay, the coldest Broncos home game
ever December tenth, nineteen seventy.

Speaker 5 (59:02):
Two, nine degrees.

Speaker 7 (59:05):
No, but however, yes, since we're bringing it up, the
coldest home playoff game was indeed January twelve, twenty thirteen
against the Ravens, double overtime thirteen degrees. Ough that game
was repair and yeah, Jacoby Jones stared me in the
eyeballs when he got that touchdown, because I was working security,
and he looked at me right in the face, Mandy

(59:28):
and kissed to the sky as he stared me in
the eyes. So if anyone felt that any more than anyone,
it's yours, truly.

Speaker 5 (59:36):
I got to wines that first hand.

Speaker 3 (59:38):
Yeap, thank you for Kobe stabbing the knife in your throat,
in your guts as you were frozen, frozen to death
at the same time.

Speaker 7 (59:44):
And if you watch the game winning field goal that
of course upset the Broncos in that game, you can
see me in the video right there.

Speaker 3 (59:51):
Pretty much everybody is saying that Baltimore game, he's the
coldest game they've ever been to.

Speaker 5 (59:55):
Yeah, imagine now coldy were walking out after that stunning defeat.

Speaker 3 (59:58):
Mandy, did you sit that hih when you went to
the Taylor Swift concert? No, because quite coincidentally, we actually
won a drawing here at the radio station and I
got to sit in the suite in the in the
iHeartMedia suite for that concert. Mandy saw Jay Cutler's first
game at Mile High. I believe it was four degrees
at one point. Broncos lost. Here's an interesting tip brings

(01:00:22):
styrofoam or other material insulation to stand on for those
cold games. Yes, the metal and concrete just project the
cold into your legs.

Speaker 7 (01:00:31):
Yes, cardboard, styrofoam, anything to keep you off the concrete.

Speaker 3 (01:00:36):
Well, I know it was below freezing at the Broncos,
but was cold enough in the days where they used
bands to do the pre halftime in post I made
the mistake of licking my lips before putting the trumpet
mouthpiece up for the national anthem and had the mouthpiece freeze.

Speaker 5 (01:00:51):
To my lips. Ouch. Are you ready for me to
tell you the coldest NFL game?

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
Please?

Speaker 5 (01:00:58):
There are two?

Speaker 3 (01:00:58):
Okay, what is it called?

Speaker 5 (01:01:01):
The ice Bowl? Yep, minus thirteen wind chill minus forty eight.

Speaker 3 (01:01:05):
That's horrible.

Speaker 7 (01:01:06):
And then the freezer Ball in eighty two minus nine,
minus fifty nine wind chill.

Speaker 3 (01:01:14):
Who was that? What game was it?

Speaker 5 (01:01:16):
Angles Chargers in eighty two?

Speaker 3 (01:01:18):
Somebody just brought that up?

Speaker 5 (01:01:19):
A freezer bowl?

Speaker 3 (01:01:21):
How about the San Diego Chargers Cincinnati Bengals playoff game
in the eighties, obviously not played in San Diego where
the weather is always perfect. We'll be right back, hey, Pam,
thanks for calling. Three oh three seven one three eighty
five eighty five, as other people can do as well.
What's on your mind?

Speaker 13 (01:01:37):
Hi, Mandy, I'm originally from Jacksonville, Florida.

Speaker 6 (01:01:41):
Yes, and I love I love Crystal.

Speaker 13 (01:01:43):
Hamburgers, and I love mister bo Jangles Pride Chickens.

Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
You're my spirit sister. Where'd you grow up in Jacksonville?
Where'd you go to high school? I?

Speaker 13 (01:01:52):
Okay, so graduated from Sandelwood High School.

Speaker 5 (01:01:58):
We played against him in football?

Speaker 13 (01:02:01):
Yes, and the sandal Wood see yep. And I grew
up in Arlington. I moved to uh the south Side,
and then I moved to Bay Meadows.

Speaker 5 (01:02:13):
Oh there you go, moving on up there, sister.

Speaker 13 (01:02:18):
People don't know it at my feet, show it around
for a time every time, and I'm on a roll,
rock and roll.

Speaker 5 (01:02:24):
You're like butter baby, You're on a roll.

Speaker 2 (01:02:28):
I'm on the jelly roll exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:02:30):
You got anything else on your mind other than connecting
over our shared north you know, Eastern Florida heritage.

Speaker 13 (01:02:36):
I loved your show, Mandy, and I love I love
you and a Rod.

Speaker 11 (01:02:41):
Y'all are a great team.

Speaker 13 (01:02:42):
Teamwork makes the dream work and y'all are the a.

Speaker 6 (01:02:45):
Team, the awesome team.

Speaker 4 (01:02:49):
I love it.

Speaker 5 (01:02:50):
Pam, you can call anytime.

Speaker 13 (01:02:52):
Thank you very much. Have a great day, Happy Holidays.

Speaker 5 (01:02:56):
Merry Christmas to you.

Speaker 2 (01:02:57):
Pam.

Speaker 3 (01:02:58):
Let me give you some stuff that's on the blog today.
You can call and just give us compliments too. That's fine.
You can text us at five six to six nine
zero and also compliment us. But I do have some
things on the blog that I do want to get to,
so the ah Man, I forgot to link to the story.
I'll fix it in just a moment. Colorado is now
the third most expensive place to live in the United States,

(01:03:23):
and the Chamber of Commerce puts together this report every
year and they point out where things are going terribly wrong,
like these things. Colorado dropped from forty seventh to forty
eighth and housing affordability in the US News twenty twenty
five rankings. According to the Colorado Realtors Association, the average

(01:03:45):
home price in the Denver metro area stood at nearly
seven hundred thousand dollars in twenty twenty four. The state's
overall cost of living also lagged behind most of the
country the CNBC's ratings, so Colorado fell from six to
forty seventh this year. Colorado is the sixth most regulated

(01:04:05):
state in the country, which business leaders often cite when
expressing worries that the regulatory environment and red tape are
deterring companies from relocating to the state. That number comes
from the Chamber's own study conducted last year, which found
that about forty five percent of Colorado's nearly two hundred
thousand regulations.

Speaker 5 (01:04:26):
Are excessive or duplicative. Job well done, Job well done.

Speaker 3 (01:04:34):
Just remember who's been running the state exclusively since twenty
nineteen is Mandy Goetna holler darn tutin? If the Broncos
went on Sunday? Probably not, generally speaking. The only time
I yelled darn tutin is when I read it on
a text message, So that was pretty much.

Speaker 5 (01:04:53):
That was pretty much it.

Speaker 3 (01:04:56):
Mandy.

Speaker 5 (01:04:57):
This Ravens fan who's never been to a game is
enjoying this conver sa.

Speaker 3 (01:05:00):
I'll enjoy home.

Speaker 12 (01:05:01):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (01:05:02):
Here's a fun story, a really fun story. But we're
giving it to you a day too late. But I'm
giving it to you anyway because I would love to
do this. Do you guys know you could volunteer to
answer the phones for Norad as they track Santa. How
much fun would that be talking to little children looking

(01:05:22):
for Santa.

Speaker 5 (01:05:22):
You can give them updates.

Speaker 3 (01:05:25):
I love this. All of the slots are filled a rod.
I went to the sign up sheet and all of
the slots are filled. If I had nothing to do,
That's what I'm saying. If I was going to be
in town, I would love to do this. It would
be so much fun. I would bring a little thing
of bells with me so I could king ting ding
you know. Oh look, Mandy, I've worked for the State
of Colorado for twelve years and I still have to
frequently go to food banks to make ends meet. That

(01:05:48):
is insane.

Speaker 5 (01:05:51):
I wish I were surprised. Take a quick time out
when we get back.

Speaker 3 (01:05:56):
I have some stories on the blog that I want
to get to there a little heavier than we've done
this time around. But I also have some rather silly stuff.
Can someone tell me what a little Boo Boo is
and why I should care that it's at the airport.

Speaker 1 (01:06:12):
The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock

bab Welcome, uncal, Welcome.

Speaker 5 (01:06:39):
To the final hour of a Friday show.

Speaker 3 (01:06:42):
I'm Mandy Connle. That guy's Anthony Rodriguez. You can call
him a run. I will take you right up till
three pm and we will hand this station over in
perfect condition. I might add to those Ruffians on KOA
Sports f well, yeah, they're gonna have a full breakdown
of the up coming Packers game, which I'm super excited about.

Speaker 5 (01:07:02):
This I think is I'm looking forward to a really
good game.

Speaker 3 (01:07:07):
Don't you think I think this has been because honestly,
if I have one consistent criticism of the Broncos team
is that they play to the level of their competition.

Speaker 7 (01:07:18):
They do. I have gone back and forth on this one.
As of now, I'm leaning Broncos. I think there's a
chance because the Packers are really really, really good, really
good Jordan Love who's kind of been, as I say,
Jekyll and Love, kind of gone up and down in
his career, but he's playing extremely well.

Speaker 5 (01:07:36):
What right now, they beat the Vikings, Lions and Bears.

Speaker 3 (01:07:39):
Watch the last three games of theirs because they've been
on national TV. So I've watched the last three. They're
very impressive right now.

Speaker 7 (01:07:45):
But I think I think the determining factor for me
as I think our defense is gonna bring Jordan's back
down to earth a bit. But Josh Jacobs, if he
plays in this game, becau, he's kind of questionable. The
running back of the Packers. He in his time with
the Raiders has decimated every single game.

Speaker 3 (01:08:01):
We shall see me Lance in well Dona. First question, Lance,
where's Weldona?

Speaker 5 (01:08:08):
It's up near Fort Morgan.

Speaker 3 (01:08:09):
Oh okay, I know.

Speaker 5 (01:08:10):
Where that is.

Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
All right, Thank you for answering that question. What you
got for me today, Lance, Well, I.

Speaker 6 (01:08:15):
Got myself into something I was greatly unprepared for. Coaching
the Yeah, I'm coaching the girls JV basketball team. Wow,
oh my goodness. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:08:26):
How old are these jvs?

Speaker 4 (01:08:27):
So?

Speaker 6 (01:08:27):
What is that like?

Speaker 3 (01:08:28):
Ninth grade?

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
Yeah? Oh boy?

Speaker 3 (01:08:33):
So you you have, you have a squad of teenage
hormonal girls that you have to wrangle.

Speaker 5 (01:08:41):
What is your biggest issue right now?

Speaker 6 (01:08:45):
Well, I think they just don't have like a fire
in them, you know, like getting all crazy before a game.
Let's go win fight. It just kind of play.

Speaker 3 (01:08:54):
Let me let me give you a little window into
the world of teenage girls, because I you know, I
used to be one some time.

Speaker 5 (01:08:59):
Ago, and I have one at home.

Speaker 3 (01:09:01):
So one of my biggest things that I noticed when
my daughter was playing competitive volleyball was that girls are
much more concerned with not hurting the other team's feelings.

Speaker 5 (01:09:14):
So there's a different kind of competitiveness.

Speaker 2 (01:09:17):
With guys.

Speaker 3 (01:09:17):
You can say these little boys, you're like, let's go
kill them.

Speaker 5 (01:09:20):
And the boys are like, ah, because that's little boys, right.
With girls, you have to say things like, Okay, if
we win this game, we're one step closer to the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (01:09:29):
You have to keep it like goal oriented and you
have to say, okay, like this team's really good, so
we got to go out and play hard and whatever happens.
We're going to learn a lot in this game. And
I want you to do your best, like always make
it about individual, do your best. I know you guys
are going to crush it. You match up well against
this team. You know, whatever you have to say, it
doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter what words are actually

(01:09:51):
coming out of your mouth. But you can't make it.
They're never going to be like raw, raw, let's go
kill them. It's not going to happen. So you have
to give them a goal, and I would say even
give them specifically, individually goals that they need to work on. Hey,
let's try and get your serve over the net a
couple more times or one more time, or whatever it
is that they can focus on individually as they play

(01:10:13):
as a team. Girls are just wired different and you
can't use the same tactics on them that you use
on boys to get them motivated.

Speaker 4 (01:10:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:10:22):
Yeah, that's fantastic advice. But we have at the end
of the semester when we break for the holidays, we're
going to do a gift exchange. That's where I'm really
out of my league. I have no idea what to
give in this gift exchange. It's kind of like white Elephant.
But they want to be serious, right and the dollar

(01:10:42):
limits fifteen dollars Okay, I asked Chad TPT.

Speaker 5 (01:10:46):
And it was horrible. Yeah, I want to need your help.

Speaker 3 (01:10:49):
I'm going to tell you you just want to go
to the gift card route right now, that's what you
want to do. And I would get a gift card
to five below. Ah, yeah, get a gift card to
five below because as I hate to say this, but
as a male coach, like say you buy you know,
something kind of girly, like some lotion from bed, Bath
and Beyond or something like that. Then that starts to

(01:11:11):
get into why is the male coach giving the middle
school girls this? But if you just show up with
your gift card, maybe like a little teddy bear that
the gift card. You know, it's holding the gift or whatever.
You can't go wrong with a gift card in your situation.
I think that's your safest play perfect.

Speaker 2 (01:11:26):
You nailed it.

Speaker 3 (01:11:27):
I'm here to help Lance so much. I'm here to
help man because girls I might need you know what
anytime Lance I will want. And first of all, thank
you because obviously you're doing this because nobody else stepped up.

Speaker 5 (01:11:40):
Is that accurate?

Speaker 4 (01:11:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:11:41):
Okay, thank you for doing that.

Speaker 6 (01:11:43):
And nobody even applied for the job.

Speaker 3 (01:11:47):
So well, if you really want to get deep on
how to deal with teenage girls, there's a book called Untangled,
and it is phenomenal about the brain development of teenage girls.
The thing you really have to worry about out is
any kind of clicks that might be popping up. You
need to you need to crush that rebellion if it
starts to show its uglyhead and make it all about

(01:12:09):
the team, you can't let the clicks for That's where
disaster happens.

Speaker 2 (01:12:13):
Yeah, Lan, thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:12:15):
See this is why we do what we do. I'm here,
I'm here to help. Let's talk about laboo bos for
a minute, Ay Rod, what the what is a la
boo boo?

Speaker 5 (01:12:23):
I love that you're asking this and I love that.

Speaker 7 (01:12:26):
Yeah, la boo boo, to my understanding, is first of all,
a very very ugly stuffed.

Speaker 5 (01:12:33):
Animal doll, if you will.

Speaker 4 (01:12:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:12:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:12:34):
The concept behind it is they are extremely expensive, so
they're considered highbrow, fancy stuffed animals for the upper class
to look fancy yet be able to still carry one
of these.

Speaker 3 (01:12:48):
They're nicknamed after a Chinese TV show called The Monster's
Main Character. And apparently laboo boos are like the hot
gift this year or something, and they have them at airport.
But you know, if your kid wants some hot gift
and you don't feel like chasing your tail to try
and find it because it's not available anymore, why don't

(01:13:09):
you go tell your kids that you are going to
give them a hot.

Speaker 5 (01:13:12):
Gift and go buy them a cabbage patch tall or a.

Speaker 3 (01:13:15):
Beanie baby, or any of the other idiotic things that
we all spend a lot of money on that have
no value.

Speaker 7 (01:13:20):
Now, or if you're comfortable with a little white lie,
there are a million knockoff la boo boos that you
can't tell the difference, and you can.

Speaker 5 (01:13:27):
See they are they lobobos or lobobus or just you
know what? Do they call them both lobobos?

Speaker 3 (01:13:32):
Yes, Mandy, Please tell the coach that JV has to
be fun and anyone that shows that for practice should
get at least a quarter of playing time. Save the
win loss and limited playtime to the varsity coach. I agree, Mandy,
I highly disagree. When I played sports in high school,
we were very competitive. He is in middle school, he's
ninth grade, he's JV. Okay, you still got girls that

(01:13:57):
are awful at that age. I will tell you if
any country in the world ever tried to start stuff
with us again, we should just create an army of
teenage girls. We should send them into that country with
their cell phones. They will destroy the confidence of the
entire nation within ten minutes. The depths of the cruelty

(01:14:18):
that teenage girls are capable of is stunning, Jingus. God
got nothing on teenage girls. And don't get me wrong,
I was one and I have one. We're thankfully through.
I think the worst of that part. Middle school, good lord,
middle school, what a nightmare, Just a nightmare. Mandy, bet

(01:14:43):
your boots. I'm letting out of darn toot. And if
the Broncos win, well you knock yourself out. Mandy headed
to Florida tomorrow. Was your favorite public sandwich? That would
be a public's Italian sub? I wanted on white bread.
You heard me right, I'm gonna do mayo, little honey, mustard, lettuce, onion, jalapenos.

(01:15:04):
You're welcome. So good, I mean so good. Isn't Jacksonville's
Southern Georgia? It is, indeed, which is why my friends
and I call where I'm from in Florida, Sojhanofla South Georgia.

Speaker 5 (01:15:21):
North Florida.

Speaker 3 (01:15:22):
It's all exactly the same, just one giant region of
red decks. God love them all.

Speaker 5 (01:15:28):
That lady was pretty fancy, though she moved to Bayside,
so she was moving on up now.

Speaker 3 (01:15:33):
Multiple people reminded me to watch Klaus this weekend and
report back on Monday, so I have to do that.
I don't think a l Boo Boo is the not
so famous older sister of Honey Booboo.

Speaker 5 (01:15:44):
I mean, good guess, good guess, but wrong. We'll be
right back.

Speaker 3 (01:15:49):
I have a great story on the blog that is
so perfectly illustrative of why nutrition science sucks. Okay, why
it's so hard to get real solid nutritional information. We've
talked on the show before about how hard it is
to get people to just comply while they're part of
a nutritional study. But this particular article is about a

(01:16:12):
move by Coca Cola, and the most remarkable.

Speaker 5 (01:16:18):
Part, although if you follow along, you already know what
I'm going to say, is how captured.

Speaker 3 (01:16:25):
Organizations like the American College of Sports Medicine have been
by big food, in this case big soda, so Coca Cola.

Speaker 5 (01:16:34):
Back in two thousand and nine, they were concerned.

Speaker 3 (01:16:38):
Because people were starting to be educated more completely about
the dangers of just consuming liquid sugar, which is what
soda is. So a researcher at Coca Cola decided that
they were going to shift the conversation. They came up
with the ultimate look over here.

Speaker 2 (01:16:59):
Look over here.

Speaker 3 (01:17:02):
She decided that she was going to organize an event
at a nutrition conference in Bangkok, Thailand. The event would
be called Exercises Medicine, a global initiative to improve public health.

Speaker 5 (01:17:15):
Doesn't that sound awesome?

Speaker 3 (01:17:17):
One of the speakers at the event was University of
Colorado obesity researcher James Hill. She said, my pov, it's
time the calories outside of the equation was given more
prominence at these nutrition health meetings.

Speaker 5 (01:17:32):
Calories out meaning exercise.

Speaker 3 (01:17:35):
She also asked University of South Carolina obesity expert Stephen
Stephen Blair to help her organize this, and thus began
the Exercise is Medicine campaign that would not only conquer
the United States, it would soon.

Speaker 5 (01:17:50):
Have projects all over the world.

Speaker 3 (01:17:53):
Jim Hill, the University of Colorado obesity expert, delivered the
keynote speech. He used the opportunity to introduce the Global
Energy Balanced Network, a campaign promoting the erroneous notion that
maintaining a healthy body weight is simply a matter of
burning as many calories as you consume his white hair.

Speaker 5 (01:18:12):
Well, I'm not going to go on with that.

Speaker 3 (01:18:14):
The gist of the talk he gave was that the
calories outside of the equation deserves more attention, and he
actually said, I oftentimes say that Bill Gates is responsible
for as much obesity as Ronald McDonald. Now you know
that Michelle Obama picked up this and in addition to

(01:18:35):
making all school food completely flavorless by taking out all
the salt, she also had the Move initiative, and it
was all based on this. All of this stuff was
paid for by Coca Cola. So what do you think
they're going to say? It took the founder of Crossbit,
of all places, to start calling this stuff out and

(01:18:55):
make the connection and show people that so much of
the nutrition information they think they're getting from unbiased sources
is actually funded by big food.

Speaker 5 (01:19:03):
And big soda. Now fast forward, it was uncovered.

Speaker 3 (01:19:10):
The New York Times headline on August tenth was dramatic,
Coca Cola funds efforts to alter obesity battle. The beverage
Giant is teamed up with influential scientists who are advancing
this message in medical journals, at conferences, and through social media.

Speaker 5 (01:19:25):
To help the scientists get out the word.

Speaker 3 (01:19:27):
Coke has provided financial and logistical support and it goes
on from there. The reality is this, Any any rational
person will tell you that even when you're in a
calorie deficit. Losing weight is about what you put in
your mouth. You can out a run, you cannot outwork,
you cannot out exercise a crappy diet, and sugar is

(01:19:50):
the culprit. Sugar is a problem.

Speaker 5 (01:19:54):
What is I wish? I you know what, I'm gonna
look it up on this break.

Speaker 3 (01:19:57):
You got to hear the statistic, the statistic about how
much sugar Americans consumed in nineteen hundred versus now.

Speaker 5 (01:20:05):
I will find it because I know it is staggering.
We'll do that after this. Keep it on, KOA. I
just shared a story if you're just.

Speaker 3 (01:20:12):
Joining us, about how Coca Cola was trying to change
the OBCNY narrative and have us focus on calories out
instead of calories in. Now, it is really hard to
lose weight. We know this, but it's eighty five to
ninety percent of losing weight is what you put in
your mouth. Period.

Speaker 5 (01:20:33):
Exercise is great.

Speaker 3 (01:20:34):
It can help you build muscle mass, prevent you from
losing muscle mass, can make you look toned, which means
you're going to look thinner. But as far as trying
to exercise or outwork a bad diet it's not gonna happen.
And for Coca Cola to try and do that, they
did it because sugar was starting to get a bad rap.
And I wanted to share with you some statistics. And
these statistics are so hard to pin down, and I

(01:20:58):
would not say these are one percent accurate because record
keeping was not good for this kind of stuff back
in the day. But there have been studies where they
looked at recipes from certain time periods in the United
States and use that to figure out exactly how much
sugar people were consuming. Hey, Rod, how much sugar do

(01:21:19):
you think Americans were consuming in the seventeen hundreds. Al,
he's working on something, dang it. How much sugar do
you think people in America consumed in the seventeen hundreds
per year? How many pounds per year per person? Yeah,
like the whole per person, average person.

Speaker 2 (01:21:35):
Oh oh, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:21:37):
How about in seventeen hundred four pounds per year? Hardly
any okay, hardly any?

Speaker 4 (01:21:43):
Oh good.

Speaker 3 (01:21:44):
In eighteen hundred, consumption rose to approximately eighteen pounds per year. Then,
with the industrialization and the creation of candies and things
of that nature, by nineteen hundred, the individual consumption levels
had ballooned to roughly ninety pounds annually. How much do

(01:22:08):
you think Americans eat today?

Speaker 2 (01:22:11):
Now?

Speaker 5 (01:22:11):
The good news is is that our sugar consumption.

Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
Peaked at the end of the nineteen hundreds, so that
was when it was at the very very highest. What
was that again, some estimates put that estimate at one
hundred and eighty pounds of sugar per person per year.
More realistic, probably one hundred and fifty pounds of sugar
per person per year at the highest.

Speaker 5 (01:22:33):
Let's go double it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:34):
No, now we're lower. It's actually gone down. Yeah, so
right now we're probably one hundred to one hundred and
twenty pounds on average per person in the United States
of America. So we've gone from four pounds per year
per person to over one hundred pounds per person.

Speaker 5 (01:22:50):
So if you're eating.

Speaker 3 (01:22:51):
The other thing that's happened during that same time is
that we've started eating processed foods. Like back in the day,
when your mom made dinner, she didn't make it out
of a box. When women started working and convenience foods
became the norm, that's when we started eating food out
of a box. The only food you should be eating
out of a box is if your vegetables come in

(01:23:11):
a box. Boxes are not real food most of the time,
so just keep that in mind. I've got a bunch
of other stuff. It isn't ask me anything anything day.
You can call me three three seven one, three eighty five,
eighty five or just text them two five six six.

Speaker 5 (01:23:29):
And I know ay ride. Do me a favor.

Speaker 3 (01:23:32):
Can you google the Indian sleigh ride version? Please Indian
dudes singing please? It is hilarious. I laughed so hard
at this stupidity the other day, and I don't know
if it's offensive or inappropriate. I mean the folks that
I know who originated in India, they they I think, would.

Speaker 5 (01:23:53):
Have a sense of humor. It's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (01:23:55):
Did you listen to it?

Speaker 5 (01:23:56):
I think I heard it, but I think your note
was correct. What then it's interportant? Why it's funny?

Speaker 3 (01:24:03):
I don't know it's I think it's actually done by
Indian dudes. If it's done by Indian dudes, does that
make it?

Speaker 1 (01:24:09):
You know?

Speaker 4 (01:24:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:24:11):
Man, be careful, you don't want to upset Koa's advertise
the Sota weight loss plan. What do you think the
Sota weight loss Plan teaches people. I am merely telling
you I think that so D sota so O t
a s state of the art weight loss so ot
A weight loss time. Come on, play the Indian verse,

(01:24:32):
come on, do it?

Speaker 9 (01:24:33):
Do it?

Speaker 6 (01:24:34):
Do it? Do it?

Speaker 3 (01:24:36):
Do it?

Speaker 1 (01:24:38):
Do it?

Speaker 3 (01:24:41):
So frustrating, and I don't have the buttons, and I
can't even bring it up over here because we'll just
turn my computer off. Not cool, by the way. Speaking
of weight loss, Eli Lilly has been testing a new
weight loss drug that combines semi glue tide and a
couple other things, and it works so well that people

(01:25:01):
in the testing phases stop taking it because they lost
too much weight. People who are considered morbidly obese with
knee osteoarthritis signed up for this study. They lost up
to seventy one pounds on average. Seventy one pounds on average.
I am not upset about this weight loss drug thing,
and I mean, trust me, I think soda is a

(01:25:23):
superior plan for a variety of reasons. Number one, I'm
trying to think of a nice way to say this.
A lot of the people that are using glp ones
to lose a lot of weight quickly have fundamentally changed
the way their faces look like they're losing all of
their facial fat. You don't do that on Sota. You

(01:25:45):
actually look younger when you lose weight on.

Speaker 5 (01:25:47):
The Sota plan.

Speaker 3 (01:25:49):
Man, did you already post how we can try to
record your theme song and send it in? I did not, y'all,
like totally forgot so Monday's blog. I am working on
it this weekend, so we'll have it ready to go.
It's gonna have that information. Although I got an email
or a text message from Tye, the guy who wrote
the original theme song. Apparently he got some real people together,

(01:26:10):
so real humans to record it, so that may be
a contender. Okay, so I'm pretty excited about that. So Monday,
I promise guys, I will do it this weekend and
make sure it's ready to go on Monday.

Speaker 2 (01:26:20):
Tie.

Speaker 3 (01:26:21):
Yeah, Mandy, have you seen Joyless read thinks jingle.

Speaker 5 (01:26:24):
Bells is racist?

Speaker 3 (01:26:25):
I mean, but, sir or madam, is there anything that
joy Reid doesn't think is racist? I mean, that woman
can find racism in the snow. Why it gotta be white?
I mean, come on, she is the absolute worst. Mandy.
I'm going to a holiday concert tonight. Do I have
to jingle all the way or can I just jingle halfway?

(01:26:46):
I'm kind of tired, like, give it your jingle best.
But we can only do what we can do, that's all, Mandy.
I cast the Indian Christmas music around the house every year.
Makes me laugh my butt off every time. You know
what else makes me laugh? That is wildly inappropriate, and
I feel guilty every single time I laugh at it, Ayrod,

(01:27:10):
do you remember the ding Friiser done video?

Speaker 5 (01:27:12):
Of course, I gotta run, I gotta run. I laugh
so hard at that video and I just don't. I
don't want to laugh.

Speaker 3 (01:27:24):
Mandy. I didn't hear anything you just said because I
was listening to Indian sleigh Ride play.

Speaker 5 (01:27:28):
It says this Texter, do it?

Speaker 4 (01:27:31):
Do it?

Speaker 3 (01:27:33):
Mandy?

Speaker 5 (01:27:33):
Did you ever snap it before and after picture for soda?

Speaker 3 (01:27:36):
Nope? I did not. And that's what because I'm not
doing that, just not doing that.

Speaker 5 (01:27:44):
And there's actually a really valid.

Speaker 3 (01:27:45):
Reason for that. Lots and lots of cheesy snake oil
awful weight loss companies. They did this to a friend
of mine in radio who did it before and after
for a weight loss plan very much like the Sodo
plan that he did, and people started using his before
and as for their shady snake oil.

Speaker 5 (01:28:02):
Just take one pill, lose one hundred pounds.

Speaker 3 (01:28:04):
Crap, and he could not get it off the internet,
could not get it off the internet. So, yeah, Mandy
a ron is being awoke. Was it's not offensive?

Speaker 6 (01:28:18):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 5 (01:28:18):
I'm just saying, Oh, I think I've heard it. It's honey, Yeah, Mandy.
Do I still get to eat cap'n Crunch?

Speaker 4 (01:28:25):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:28:26):
You don't. You know cap'n Crunch? I don't. There's why
do you eat cap'n crunch?

Speaker 11 (01:28:29):
Cereal?

Speaker 5 (01:28:30):
Is it in your wheelhouse of cerealsymore?

Speaker 3 (01:28:33):
I don't really eat. If I eat cereal, it is
one of two and possibly a combination honeynut checks and
honeynut cheerios.

Speaker 5 (01:28:41):
Night cheerios and frosted flakes. Oh, frosted flakes would be
Do you mix cereals?

Speaker 6 (01:28:45):
Are you? Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:28:47):
No? I do?

Speaker 5 (01:28:47):
Oh never?

Speaker 4 (01:28:48):
Never?

Speaker 3 (01:28:48):
Oh I do? And if I go to one of those,
like you know one of those, Hey, you're staying at
this hotel, you get the free breakfast, which is basically
like four containers of cereal, some waffles that you make yourself,
and some eggs that are like there's military eggs where
they just add water. I always go to all like
I'm gonna mix all the cereals. I'm not gonna mix
fruit loops because that's like out of control. But you

(01:29:08):
got to you got some special k in there. You
got maybe even got some shred in mini weights. I
don't know, I might be feeling crazy. Put them all
in there. Put milk in there. It's like a it's
like a it's like a box of chocolates. You don't
know what bite you're gonna get next. Mandy, here's the
best Christmas Carol singer?

Speaker 5 (01:29:27):
And why is it not King Cole?

Speaker 3 (01:29:29):
I will see your night, King Cole, and I will
raise you Bing Crosby, ing, Yeah, Bing Crosby. And Baby
it's Cold Outside is predatory.

Speaker 4 (01:29:38):
It is not.

Speaker 3 (01:29:39):
Let me, I'm gonna do it one more time. They right,
I'm gonna do it this year, and I'm gonna do
it right now. Record it so we can make it
its own little podcast. Here is why, Baby It's Cold
Outside is not predatory. Baby It's Cold Outside is a
construct of the patriarchal culture that the women were living
in back when this song was written. They weren't allowed
to have sexual agency, and decide to stay late have

(01:30:00):
another cigarette. They were too loud because their parents would
be pacing the floor. Their brother would be so upset.
That song is not about him convincing her to stay.
It is about her making the appropriate excuses so he
knows she's a nice girl. It's all about her taking
agency while making excuses as to why she can't. You're welcome.

Speaker 5 (01:30:23):
I still love that.

Speaker 3 (01:30:24):
Song, Mandy. My favorite Christmas song is walking Around in
women's Underwear. It's to the tune of walking through a
winter Wonderland. It's hilarious. I am familiar. Oh here's one
for Ask me anything, Mandy. How much wood could a
woodchuck chuck? Well, if a woodchuck could chuck, would how
much wood would a.

Speaker 5 (01:30:43):
Wood chuck chuck? If a woodchuck could chuck, would.

Speaker 2 (01:30:46):
A lot?

Speaker 3 (01:30:47):
I wish a woodchuck would come take care of my
firewood situation. Anyway, I got more stuff on the blog today,
including a fascinating story, absolutely fascinating story. Now, if you
heard we had our futureist Thomas Ryan. It came out
one time and this was when we first started having
him on the show, and he was talking about nanobat

(01:31:10):
Nanobot technology that would be used in medicine, and it
was going to.

Speaker 13 (01:31:14):
Go like this.

Speaker 3 (01:31:15):
They were going to make these little inny bitty teeny
tiny robots that were going to be able to go in.
They would inject them into your bloodstream and then they
would direct them to go to wherever in your body
you had, say a tumor, maybe you have a brain
tumor and it's in your brain, and these little nanobots
would go in and they would start to either inject

(01:31:35):
poison into that tumor, in that tumor alone, so you'd
be able to hyper target chemotherapy. So you don't know, honestly, guys,
a lot of people die every year from the results
of chemotherapy. Their bodies become so weakened from the chemotherapy
that they then succumbed to a different sort of situation.
So if you could just target this stuff just on

(01:31:57):
the tumor, it would be amazing. Well, guys were one
step close. Researchers that built a robot with an onboard computer, sensors,
and a motor. The whole assembly for this little robot
less than a millimeter in size, smaller than a grain
of salt. How freaking cool.

Speaker 4 (01:32:17):
Is this.

Speaker 5 (01:32:18):
It is a wonderful time to be alive.

Speaker 3 (01:32:23):
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania and the University of
Michigan advanced medicine towards a future that might see the
tiny robot sent into the human.

Speaker 5 (01:32:32):
Body to rewire damaged nerves. I don't even think about that.

Speaker 3 (01:32:35):
Deliver medicines to precise areas and determine the health of
a patient sells without surgery.

Speaker 4 (01:32:40):
That is cool.

Speaker 3 (01:32:43):
It is being billed as the world's smallest robot able
to make decisions for itself. I absolutely love this. One
of the researchers said, in the future, say one hundred years,
anything a surgeon does today, we'd love to do with
a robot.

Speaker 5 (01:33:00):
Not there yet, we'll be there soon. That's just super
super cool.

Speaker 2 (01:33:06):
Mandy.

Speaker 3 (01:33:06):
Have you seen the John c Riley and Will Ferrell
do their take on Bing Crosbie and David Bowie video.
I have not, Well, no, I think I have no. Wait,
I've seen the Bing Crosby and David Bowie video. I
don't think I have seen the John c Riley and
Will Ferrell video. Mandy, you made my day. Please post

(01:33:27):
your rants about maybe it's cold outside? Can you make
that its own podcast, the old tiny minute and a
half podcast about maybe it's cold outside. Just people just
share it, Mandy. I put on my in sync Christmas
album every year when we decorate the house. My teenager
just rolls their eyes. But it makes my millennial heart
so happy. You do whatever makes you happy. Good grief, Mandy.

(01:33:49):
The eggs are not powdered. That was nineteen ninety. The
eggs are liquid and free of the coali and listeria.
They're actually used in most restaurants. And I don't have
to like them, now do I. I love, love, love eggs.
I eat eggs every day of my life. I don't
like eggs that used to be eggs that were then

(01:34:10):
somehow treated in some manner to make them seem eggish.

Speaker 5 (01:34:15):
But not actually eggs.

Speaker 3 (01:34:17):
So yeah, no, not doing it. You can't make me.

Speaker 5 (01:34:23):
Hey, Mandy. Why are the letters U, E, U E
in the word.

Speaker 8 (01:34:26):
Q u.

Speaker 3 (01:34:31):
Because uh in q oh nice?

Speaker 5 (01:34:37):
Because because English is stupid. Now I have to look
it up.

Speaker 3 (01:34:41):
No, we hang on, y'all are gonna look quem tomology.

Speaker 5 (01:34:47):
Let's see here.

Speaker 3 (01:34:49):
It is from the origin cowda in Latin, meaning tail,
and it was transferred over to French, where it became
q q u e ue.

Speaker 5 (01:35:01):
Of course it's French.

Speaker 3 (01:35:03):
It popped up in the late sixteenth century as a
heraldic term denoting the tale of an animal from French,
based on the Latin cawda.

Speaker 7 (01:35:12):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (01:35:15):
That is a little more information, but the French, I mean, really,
do you need any just the French. What's your take
on the Santa Baby song? I am not gonna lie.
I find it creepy and gross. What a show it's been.
We had a lot of like heavy shows this week,
so today was nonsense and food for raw. Ryan Edwards, Yeah,
I'm guessing that you have lots to talk about today.

(01:35:38):
I am excited about this game because my overarching criticism
of the Broncos this season has been that they played
to the level of their competition, and so the competition
is gonna be really good on Sunday, and I'm interested
to see how the Broncos win. I'm just gonna do
the assume clothes. Yeah, sure they're gonna win, and they're

(01:35:59):
gonna give me a heart attack to it.

Speaker 5 (01:36:00):
Sure they're gonna win.

Speaker 4 (01:36:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:36:02):
This isn't gonna be one of those comfortable games that
again another of them really have been comfortable. I say
last week was a little more comfortable, like you never
worried they were going to lose that game. But there
have been too many this year that have shortened the
lives of Broncos fans, and this is probably gonna be
another one.

Speaker 3 (01:36:19):
Yep, I'm looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to
it anyway. Now it's time for the most exciting segment
on the radio of its kind in the world. The
day that was one for the books.

Speaker 5 (01:36:31):
There, Brian, thank you. What is our dad joke? Please?
What do you call a kid who doesn't believe in Santa?

Speaker 3 (01:36:39):
I don't know?

Speaker 5 (01:36:40):
A rebel without a clause? Oh wow, that's actually pretty good.

Speaker 3 (01:36:43):
Well, yep, thank you please. It is an adjective, adjective, waggish, waggish, waggish. Yeah,
I'm gonna say that is someone who is kind of
a flirt, kind of like somebody who.

Speaker 5 (01:37:02):
You know, no, no, dang it, someone who is silly
and playful. Oh, I say you.

Speaker 3 (01:37:09):
I know today's trivia question because it was a Jeopardy
question on an episode I just watched like a week ago.
The first Winter Olympics took place in nineteen twenty four.

Speaker 5 (01:37:19):
Where was the event held? Probably somewhere in Europe. It
was in Europe?

Speaker 2 (01:37:24):
Yeah, nope, no one Russia.

Speaker 3 (01:37:29):
Chemin NOI shamin x shamanewah. I don't know how to
say the last shamine. I think the chamane chamany. You
don't say the ex chamany in the French shps.

Speaker 5 (01:37:38):
Oh, oh there you go. I can't remember how the

minus one? Somebody made the point. The piece of equipment
was the echo? Alexis the how did you beat him by?

Speaker 3 (01:39:21):

Speaker 7 (01:39:29):
So the tiebreaker because I knew it was BS food

got buns hun the you the untidy jose.

Speaker 4 (01:39:44):
