Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's John Jay and Rich John Jay coming in a
little bit later this morning, but Kyle's here, Peyton's here, Hello,
Rich is here. I'm here. And this is typically where
we do stacks and hacks and John Jay has, you know,
stacks of things he likes to get to, and I
have live hacks. Now I have I have a hack,
but I don't have stacks.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Okay, I sit next to John Jay.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Yeah, that's a lot of paper.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
That is probably the amount of paper that you would
buy like a like office smacks like stackream Yeah, like
a real stream of paper, that's what they're called.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
That's what that is.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
I'm honestly nervous holding John.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
Jay's stack, I know, because you cannot mess it up
or you will never hear the end of it.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
So like for us, we look at this and it
just looks like it looks like total chaos.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
But I know he's got everything in a certain order.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
And I've actually pulled some stacks.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
John Jay, please don't kill me.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Okay, maybe he won't notice. I mean I know he will.
He's going to notice that. Even the paper clips at
a slightly different position. Yeah, I did.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
Six some of his paper clips, So I'm hoping he
is appreciating that probably.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Won't necessity breeds, you know, a vandalism.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Sometimes we made it better and not vandalized it.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
So all right, go ahead, Kyle, what do you got
for some stacks? Okay?

Speaker 4 (01:15):
So John J picked this one out, and I think
this is so funny because I know exactly why he
picked it out, and when I tell you what it is,
you'll be like, oh yeah. So a guy actually in
Russia is facing two years in prison for filing a
false report claiming his car was stolen, all because he
did not want to go on a shopping trip with
his wife.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
John's like, I relate, who.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Wants to go shop with a wife. I know he's
talked about going shopping with wake quite often, and he's
a good sport. Though I think he does actually go.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
So we are entering the holidays and a pole actually
found seven and ten. People feel pressured to act happier
than they really are this time of year. Do you
guys feel that pressure or are you full of the
actual Christmas joys?

Speaker 3 (02:00):
I'm not really feeling like the joy of Christmas season
quite yet, but I'm also not like a scrooge about
it either.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
I think they said.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
Most people just like they try to cover the stress
of the holidays by acting cheerful when.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
It is stressful.

Speaker 4 (02:13):
It is stressful trying to like budget out how much
you're gonna spend on Christmas and you want to make
everybody happy and you do all things, and it's like,
we also got to pay your bills too, so that
kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
But then it's the holidays, so you have to be happy.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
I don't think I've reached that level of adulthood yet,
Okay for me to like stress about.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
The holidays, I'm kind of like, well, sorry, I didn't
get you to go. It's not even that. But like
some people are just trying to like not enter January alone,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
They don't do about that pressure of like, oh, I'm
going to the family gatherings without a significant other, that
kind of stress.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah, I think I would say I'm generally in a
fine mood, so the holidays don't stress me out anymore
about you, but not stressed, I.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Mean generally, I think I'm I usually always try to
look at the bright side, but obviously it's like you
can't go through life not acknowledging the stresses and the
things that are roadbumps.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
But I also feel like.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
The holidays are such a good excuse to just only
think of the positive, even when the bad things happen,
Even when the negative things happen, It's like, just focus
on the positive and then you feel that holiday cheer.
Plus I think people are generally nicer during the holidays,
so I think it's kind of easier to.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Feel the cheer and the joy. In any case, we
got one more.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
They found, Uh, one in eight Americans have now taken
GOLP one weight loss drugs like ozempic.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
We have a we gov zep bound all this stuff.
One in five want two and.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Aren't they supposed to be getting cheaper allegedly And then yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
Yeah, so they're saying, like basically all of America is
GLP one. Curious They're that it makes sense. It makes sense.
Obviously next week is Thanksgiving. So if you're assigned pies,
I don't know how you guys do it, but our
family always does, like pot lick style, and we're each
assigned one thing or whatever. If you're making everything and

(03:54):
you're going which pies. They have found that pumpkin pie
is still apparently the favorite over apple pie, although apple
pie is a very close second, and then pecan pie.
But they're saying depending on where you live, you know,
like sweet potato pie, French silk pie, and maybe you
really got to feel it out with a group that
you're with. But if you guys could kick one Thanksgiving dessert.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
To the curb, but what would it be Because I'm thinking,
like the best pie in the world, honestly is Costco.
So if I had to kick one to the curb,
I'd probably kick their apple to the curb and keep
the pumpkin and the pecan.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Out of all of those or any kind of.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
I'm kicking apple just I'm Thanksgiving desserts, which are generally
all the pies.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
I would honestly probably I don't really like I don't
think fruit should be warm, so I would say that.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Scott, my husband's the same way. He does not want
anyway on a dessert ever.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
But I love apple pie like a good like a
good Dutch apple pie with the crumbles on top, and
I could kick put a pecan pie of the curb.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
An, Okay, all right, now that you've made everything all positive,
let me scare the crap out of you. Your kitchen
sponge is trying to kill you.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
Oh is that what that thing is growing on it
right now?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yeah, I'm about to ruin your entire morning coffee here.
But this is good. Your kitchen sponge. That innocent little
yellow friend is basically a hotel for bacteria. So they've
compared it to a toilet seat. And guess what way
more bacteria on your sponge? How much you might ask,
you might say to me, I will tell you there
are three hundred and sixty two different species living inside.

(05:33):
It is a full bacteria hoa in there. Here's the hack,
so stop using the same sponge all week. So here's
what you can do your sponge. You're only using the
corners of it anyway, so cut it into four squares.
So once the sponge becomes four, use one square a
day and then throw it away so it's not gonna
cost you any more money.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
You know what's so funny is my sister in law.
She's a nurse and she will not touch a sponge.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
I could see why she goes to your house.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
You have a sponge, you will throw it away from
Oh my.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Gosh, that's so funny. She used just like a like
a wash rag that she can put in the washer.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
Yeah, she uses it, well, she uses one of the brushes,
the brushes, but then she puts it in the dishwasher
like on the top rack, top top rack.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Or if you're using that, well, you just said the
brush thing, you can put that in the microwave because
even a sponge or the brush kills ninety nine percent
of the nasties in the microwave. So I'm really not
sure how to put it in how long to put
it in the microwave, but get it at least in
fifteen twenty seconds. That hack and many more can be
