Speaker 1 (00:00):
Thank you for being a Murphy Salmon Jony Podcast subscriber.
And while we're on vacation, we're flashing back to some
of our favorite moments. We'll be back with live shows
on Monday, the fifteenth of July.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
What not to do first thing in the morning for
a better day. And you know I'd love to make
you guys, guess I'll promise to get to it.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Oh I know, I bet you. I know exactly what
it is.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Drop it.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Do not look at your email, don't go back that
sucker right here, don't look at social Listen.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
To both of you.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
What is it?

Speaker 2 (00:26):
My work here is done? This is sleep. Experts and
doctors say that when you first wake up, just get up.
Go ahead, get up and get moving. Do not scroll,
lay in bed and scroll because when you wake up,
your internal clock needs to know when you wake up.
That's when you get up. You don't need to train
your body to when your eyes open that you just

(00:47):
lay there. It messes all parts of your sleep and
your awake cycles and all that.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
Yeah. Well, if I decided to lay there, I'm closing
my eyes.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
The times that I have gotten up and saying, oh look,
I have a work emails. As soon as I get
up in the morning, before I jump in the shower,
it throws everything off. Oh yeah, because my mind instantly starts, Okay,
I can do this and that.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
So you have to self regulate. Yeah yeah, So get up,
start moving around. Doesn't mean you have to get up
and run a marathon. It means get up and walk
to the coffee pot, let some light in, wash your face,
take a shower, whatever. But don't just lay there. Do
something physical.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
I like to do my call map, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
it's it clears the mind and when we're ready for
the day.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
If you lay there for even fifteen minutes, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
And I'm sitting up by the way and doing that.
When you meditate, you're really not supposed to be in
a sleep position. You're sitting comfortably, and I meditate for.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Eight hours a night.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Anyway. If you lay in bed for like ten to
fifteen minutes scrolling, you're training your brain that you know,
you're the you know, the bed means sleep, and so
it's confusing.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
I guess they say that's why I mean saying not
everybody has the luxury of being able to have a
home office somewhere else, but you know, I'll try to
do it in the living room or something like that.
Don't make your bedroom the home office.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
Yeah, I suggest you can help it.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
I had dinner with a friend the other night, and
she works from home all the time, you know, five
days a week, you know, three hundred and sixty five
days a year. And it's like, I even said, do
you ever get tired of being there? Because I get
cabin fever? Yeah, being in one place for too long.
And she was like, no, she loves it, but she
has difference. She does, she moves around, she changes her game.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
If you will, goes across the hall to the satellite office.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Yeah. You know, nothing really keeps me awake though at night,
more than looking at my phone and you know, watching
somebody try to outbid me on Evel. I mean, that
will keep you up all night.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
That's a whole other situation. It's funny our lives these days,
with these phones in our hands as soon as we
wake up in the morning, and more people working from home.
You have to train, you have to self regulate more
than ever. Yeah, just to feel right and feel better
because of the way we work today. Murphy and I
had a date to remember this weekend. Oh man, I'm

(02:56):
surprised he didn't. Did he text you about our date?

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Sam?

Speaker 4 (02:58):
Did he?

Speaker 2 (03:00):
You didn't?

Speaker 1 (03:00):
I didn't. I don't text such information.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
Oh okay. So we were, he and I were. We
were in different spots during the day, you know, running
errands here and there, and it's like, how about how
about let's meet for an impromptu dinner. Okay. So we
picked the place and Murphy arrived before me.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, and I only had two choices. There was a
big gathering. An organization had rented almost the entire restaurant,
so the only area is for the public for reservations.
That night, we're in the bar area. Got a choice.
I could sit at a high top or I could
sit at a table for eight, even though it was
just for two in the mark. Okay, well, Jody doesn't
really like high tops, so because their feet, no note,

(03:39):
not just ground, And that's what you say anyway.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
It's something that's not as relaxing about a high top
from you, that's all.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
So I picked the table for eight.

Speaker 5 (03:50):
Corn.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
So I sent Jody a text ahead of time. I said, look, yeah,
I'm at a table for eight. I know it's gonna
look weird and just coming on. We're seated by the piano.
No big deal. So Jody walks in and is kind
of like grinning and wondering if we should stay or
not because the piano. Actually we were seated literally right

(04:10):
next to it, on top of the it was being played,
so I recorded it. So here's where we're having conversation.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
No, we're trying.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah, but you can hear everybody else in the background.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
It was so loud, Sam, this doesn't do it justice.
So your day, right, that was the point of dinner.
How was your day? I was hanging out with my mother.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
I wanted to I can't hear what you're saying. Joy,
just like dinner.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
You know, we said to each other the most at
that dinner.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
What yeah, right, yeah, like what only for only when
he hit the high notes?

Speaker 2 (04:46):
You know, I literally at one point was thinking, I'm
looking around at other people because we weren't. We were
the closest to him. But it was so loud on anybody.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Heard anything was Oh he was awesome. Yes he was.
I recognized quite a few times American pop standards. Yeah,
he did a great job.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
I mean, I don't know how your day went. I
still don't know anything about that night except that my
ears are ringing. Well.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
At least you didn't have to sit at a high top, right.
It was fun. It was just different. Every day's the adventure.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
I almost would have chosen the high top over not
being able to hear you.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
Yeah. The only thing I got tired of was being asked,
so are we waiting for the rest of your guests
to arrive for the last time? A Yeah? Trending now
Jody's Hollywood.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
Outsider all worried by dairy Queen.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
There is a biopic coming based on the life of
comedian Chris Farley.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
I am thirty five years old, I am divorced and
I live in a van.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Those who knew and loved him, this is important, so
here are the details. It's being put together and directed
by actor Josh gadd Okay, I know you know that
name from Frozen and many other projects. Funny produced by
SNL's Lorne Michaels, which is very important. Also based on
the book The Chris Farley Show, a biography in three acts,

(06:07):
which was written by Chris Farley's younger brother, So the
family is all on board. The actor who will play
Chris Farley because that's important. You have got to get
this right. You got to get it right, so stylized right.
Actor Paul Walker Houser. That name may not mean anything
to you, but he certainly experienced. He did the movie

(06:27):
Richard Jewell. He was in Ititanya, he was in Cruella.
He won a Golden Globe and an Emmy for his
work in the miniseries Blackbird. So it's currently being shopped
around Hollywood. Who wouldn't want it? You know, he's on
board to play it. And I'm thinking, you have to
recreate a lot of SNL skits.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
The Beatles, you were supposed to be dead.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
You got to create the one with Patrick Swayzey with
all the dancing.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
I'm guessing it's got to be a blend of both
she and comedy.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Course, because he died at the age of thirty three
and nineteen ninety seven of a drug overduce coming up
with Murphy, Sam and Jody. A lot of strong feelings
from you about divorce rings. It's Keith the Wow Wednesday,
favorite day of the week.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Guys. You know Keith the Wow is Keith the Wow
is your personal motto.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
It is and I want to get to some of
your comments like Kelly's and Pamela out your you know,
keep the wow moments and mottos. But you guys understand
the significance of where I am today. I'm away from
you guys broadcasting you know I'm doing. I'm at a conference.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, that's why it sounds a little funny.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Doesn't sound funny, I'm sorry, No, no.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
No, it's all the jokes. You're talent must be that
in room wi. Okay, listen.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
The significance is this is the same conference. I can't
remember how many years ago. I know that you will
know Sam, that I came to this conference without the
two of you, and I was asked to speak and
be the first person to open a big session with
hundreds of people. Oh yeah, I was super nervous. I
was super nervous. And that is where Keith, the wow

(08:04):
was born for me in my head because after it,
you didn't know that it's where it was born. Okay,
So remember your father had passed away.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah, and I did remember that. I do remember my
dad passing away. I remember everybody being at the fil
except Jody, except Jody, who was We were keeping.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
The wow representing Murphy, Sam and Jody at a conference
and so you got you were supposed to be here
with me, but Murphy stayed back.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yeah, it was important to the funeral.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
Hey, thanks for keeping that wow, Murphy.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
That we stop.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Gotta stop. Anyway, after I was so nervous to open
this session and I made a little joke and it
did go over, and you know afterward that night, I
had a lot of people come up and go, oh
this is great, Oh wow, this was funny, oh wow.
And I heard that so many times. I was like,
oh wow, I'm going to keep this. I told myself
those words, I'm going to keep this wow, keep this feeling.

(09:05):
And I told myself that for years in my head
death That's how and why it was born.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
I love that that cool. It didn't it wasn't there
like a celebrity present or something that was that made
it extra nerve.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Yeah, there were several celebrities, some NFL players, and that's
when you went wow. Yeah kind of. To keep the
wow is just a personal motto to have in your
head for when you have done something that you've wowed yourself.
It's about confidence because I really needed it, Kelly says
on our Facebook page. It's always good to have a

(09:38):
motto and feel proud of yourself. It feels like things
are programmed to break us down and make us feel inferior,
but we need to build ourselves back up in our
own minds. So true, Kelly, you get it. Keep it coming.
We love hearing from you.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Three things to note. Today returns to it's normal time
when we get back from vacation. And in the meantime,
here's a little flashback.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Guys, we have an email from Murphysamonjody dot com. I
want to get to It's from Michelle. Thank you for
sending this in. Oh. You guys recently talked about hotels
and early and late check ins and outs. We were
talking about checking in, late, checking requesting a late checkout,
and how it affects everything. She says, you are absolutely housekeeping. Yes,

(10:25):
for housekeeping, you're absolutely correct that it affects the housekeeping
staff working in the laundry at a major chain. It
also also affects laundry who is typically one person. Oh
for a major chain is what she's saying, one person.
The longer it takes housekeeping to strip and clean rooms,
the longer it takes laundry staff to finish up for
the day as they are waiting for the late checkouts.

(10:47):
This can be frustrating, especially during a forty plus room
laundry day. For perspective, that wears me out right there, Michelle.
For perspective, a single room with one bed generates at
least two sheets, four pillowcases, a duvet and cover, a
mattress pad, two bath towels, two hand towels, and two washcloths.

(11:08):
Multiply that by forty two or add an additional bed
in the room, and you're talking laundry beyond belief.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah, that sounds overwhelming. And what I really don't get
is what is a duvet?

Speaker 2 (11:22):
I knew, I knew as soon as.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
I don't know what.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
It's the bed cover.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
It's the comforter.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
It's a comforter. It's another word for a comforter.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
And sometimes you have a bed spread and a douvet
cover the thing at the bottom that you just kick.

Speaker 3 (11:37):
Off, Yeah, and a cover.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
I'm just not he should have just.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Ask his number one girlfriend, you Sam. Anyway, back to Michelle,
laundry beyond belief. Thank you to the people that check
in and out as normal see Murphy. That makes because
we all.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
Own Murphy's never gonna want to check in earlier, check
out late.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
We check got, we request late checkout all the time
because we typically run late because of.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
Somebody I know, No, what's because he's folding the duvet.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
Okay, thank you to those who check in and out
as normal. I am the laundry lady and I love
my job. A fifty plus room laundry sure makes one sore. Michelle,
thank you for sending this and for enlightening us about
laundry and hotels. What work it is, keep becoming anytime

(12:30):
you can email us at Murphy Samandjody dot com. I
know we mentioned the other day that divorce registries are
a thing. Well, guess what else is the thing in
the divorce world? Divorce rings?

Speaker 1 (12:42):
Oh yeah, do those show up on divorce registries? I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
I don't think so. I think a divorce ring is
something you buy for yourself because you want to move on.
You want a new piece of jewelry to rock. Is
that correct, Sam?

Speaker 3 (12:54):
Yes, Well, it's like it's like your little gift to
yourself and with a little remembrance that I'm made it
through And so what finger does the divorce ring going?
The ones. That was not a loaded question, but that
does seem that seems appropriate.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
The wedding band? Is that what it is? On the
ring fingers?

Speaker 3 (13:14):
I can't tell the two people I knew that had them,
I can't tell where they were.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
They both exes of yours. No, well, I thought you
were gonna have a great X story, you.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
As a friend and another as an ex. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
And she had a divorce ring. Yeah, and she showed you.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
Yeah. I don't know if she got another one after me. No,
this was a divorce from another marriage.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Oh for you.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Which should have given me an indication.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
You have four divorce rings on your hand.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
No, don't, don't, don't.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
Can't we split up? I'd like another ring, Let's not.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Let's not throw divorce divorce guilt around anyway.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
I've heard m before, I've seen them before, and it's
a way to treat yourself for it.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
Yeah, you guys know I love. One of my favorite
stories in the Sex and the City movie is where
Samantha wants to buy a ring for herself and it's
in an auction and some he gets it instead of her,
but it's her boyfriend that gets it for her and
gives it to her and presents it and everybody's like, oh,
you should be so excited, and she's like, no, I
wanted to buy this for myself. It's about having it

(14:10):
for myself. And I got that. It's like, oh, she
wanted to get it. It was you know, it was about
her own thing. It sounds like what a divorce ring
is helps you move on to me. Also, if you're
a woman used to and you're used to wearing jewelry,
you lost a piece of jewelry, you want to rock
something else.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yeah, it doesn't have to be on that finger, but
you can put it there.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
It doesn't and it doesn't have to look like any
It can look like whatever you want it.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
So it's really just a personal thing, you.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
Know it is, And the word is it's a It's
a really good emotional move and self care. Yeah, you
know helps you whatever helps you move on.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
I should have a handful of those by now. Huh.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
Yeah again, No, no divorce guilt. You know, yesterday we
were talking about your voice and what it says about you,
your pitch, your volume, whether you mumble or you articulate,
and it made me realize something about myself because of

(15:07):
what we do. I over articulate. Sometimes I find that
in my life. When I'm ordering a diet coke, I'm
very you know, I don't like to mumble yeah. And
I've had friends that have pointed it out to me,
and I'm like, oh, that's just because of what we
do have the friends.

Speaker 3 (15:26):
Ever told you that it's you have the radio voice.
You have a regular voice and a regular radio ic.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
I've never heard that, and I hope I don't have that.
When my kids tell me that, do you sometimes talk
to them like this?

Speaker 3 (15:37):
Apparently I do.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
Well.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
I bring it up becausetype has happened to a lot
of people. My uncle Terry, who is a retired police
officer you know, is always looking at license plates and
is all he always just your work shows up in
your life. You don't know it, you don't intend. Phoebe,
our youngest Murph is currently waiting table. She's in school,

(16:00):
but her job is she waits tables. And do you
notice what she does when we go out to eat? Now,
when we take the girls out to eat, she's the.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
One who stacks the plates at the end of the meal.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
When meal is over, she starts stacking, pre clearing the
table for the weight staff and the weight the server
will come up and be like, oh thank you, you
must wait tables. Yeah, yeah, you know what you do
shows up in your life. You can't help it. And
so I asked on our Facebook and you know on
Facebook page, where does it show up in your life?

(16:29):
Because we want to know about it. Leanne says, I
do medical billing, so when I'm at a doctor's office
as a patient, it just clicks in and I ask questions.
I ask questions that other people wouldn't ask. Danielle says,
I mentally fix people's eyebrows and evaluate their skin. I'm
an esthetician. You know that's probably can't help yourself.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
You can't.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
Here's my favorite, Kayla. I'm a fullbotomist and I notice
veins every where.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Yeah that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
But my husband and I have both worked in the
service industry and we always try to pre bust the table.
That's what the call. That's what it's called. I guess
busting the table pre bus Teresa. I'm a pharmacy tech.
Anytime a loved one, our friend has a medication they
don't know about, my tech brain kicks in and I
fill them in. So keep it coming. We want to

(17:24):
hear about where your work shows up in other places
in your life. You can even give us a call
eight seven seven three one zero four MSJ. We always
love to hear about what you do, what is your work,
but we also don't want to know where it else
it shows up in your life because you can't help it,
like when a nurse goes in a nurse mode when

(17:46):
they're not at work.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
One of my friends who's an attorney, is always, you know,
catching the unintended tax consequences or egal ramifications of decisions
I make. That's right portray right, He's awesome.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Yeah, the best so from our Instagram and Facebook page. Man,
you really came in, came through with these.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
Yeah. Stephanie says, I give excellent customer service because it's
crucial for students to be treated like responsible young adults.
For the first time, I've worked at a university for
eighteen years.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Yeah, that's a big transition time. Rothie says, I always
notice grammar. As a court reporter, I had to proofread
my transcripts, so she always noticed his grammar, lack of punctuation,
misspelled words, and I get that.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
Man, No one could drive you nuts.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
Well, I'm sure English teachers probably do the same thing.
It just happens natural part of you.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Jody, you mentioned nurse. Well, Meredith is a nurse. She says,
I definitely go into nurse mode when needed. Like New
Year's Eve, a lady face planted on the sidewalk right
in front of me. Good Oh, I sobered up, immediately
grabbed a napkin to stop the bleeding from her nose.
Did neuro checks the whole shebang?

Speaker 2 (18:50):
WHOA thank goodness for you.

Speaker 3 (18:53):
Yeah, that's the place to have an accident in front
of a nurse. Yeah, Holly, I've been in education twenty
nine years. My son's as mom. You're always in teacher mode. Yeah,
my daughter in law is a teacher, and you can
see how teaching, yeah, takes overcomes a part of who
you are.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
Zeb has one here, Jody that it reminds me of
your uncle Terry, because Zeb was a police officer. Is
a police officer. It never sits with us back to
the door any place in public. Truth always watching behavior
in hands and.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
That being backs in a parking spots too. Vicky says,
I'm a court reporter, so I'm constantly proofreading signs and
news headlines.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah, for sure, here's one. Turning the tables, Amy, I'm
a mystery author. The question is how does what everyone
else does show up in my work?

Speaker 1 (19:41):
Interesting?

Speaker 2 (19:42):
Keep it coming and join us anytime. We love knowing
what you do and where else how else it shows
up in your life? Things to do to keep depression away.
We you know, mentioned some of them basics, which is
always the basics. Sleep, good e, good food, exercise, spend
time with people you love, be social, get outside a little,

(20:04):
all of that. So keep it coming. Eight seven seven
three one zero four MSJ.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
How are you, Mike.

Speaker 4 (20:13):
Doing great?

Speaker 6 (20:14):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (20:14):
Whenever I'm feeling down or bad or whatever, I just
take a piece of paper and make a list of
all the good things that happened in my life. And
that I mean that just you know, brightens my day.
I think about my kids, my wife, my job, you know,
my health. I mean, it's just a lot of things
to be thankful for. So you know, that's that that

(20:35):
helps me boost my time. And then if somebody is
feeling down, just be an ear for somebody to listen to.

Speaker 2 (20:42):
Yeah, getting it out and like on paper for yourself,
gets it out and then you can't help.

Speaker 4 (20:48):
But see it, and then that outweighs all the negative stuff.
At least it does for me. Yeah, and and it
makes me feel a lot better. And I'm like, hey,
you know why am I down? All the great things
have happened to me and in my life.

Speaker 2 (21:02):
Right, it's in your mind. Everything starts in your mind.

Speaker 4 (21:06):
So yeah, absolutely, But I love your guys. I tell you,
y'all have such great chemistry and all of that.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
It's wonderful.

Speaker 4 (21:14):
I laugh so hard at times my side hurts.

Speaker 6 (21:17):
Oh sweet.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
We know we don't like each other very much.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 4 (21:22):
I know y'all can't stand each other. I mean, I
think I'm going to go out and have a duel
at ten faces or something.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
Actually, Mike, every now and then I have to take
out the paper and make a list of the reasons
I like Murphy and Jody.

Speaker 4 (21:35):
All right, yeah, yeah, well that's such a short list.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:41):
Time, It takes no time.

Speaker 4 (21:44):
All right, Well, y'all have a wonderful day. I'm almost
at work, and y'all really brighten a lot of people and.

Speaker 6 (21:51):
People the good work.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
Thank you, Mike, very kind of you. We appreciate that. Yeah,
Mike's point is really good because your emotions can lie
to you. Sometimes you take your feelings as fact and reality,
and many times it's not the case. And when you
do something put pen to paper, you know, or talk
it through or even acknowledge it. Sometimes you realize, oh, okay,
you've been you've been grabbed by the feeling more than
you have and it kind of sweeps you away.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, And all you can do is try these things,
all these things we're mentioning you just try them, you know,
and get through. It's not like there's one main solution.
Every person is different. Keep it coming. We love hearing
from you.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Three things to note Today returns to it's normal time
when we get back from vacation. In the meantime, here's
a little flashback.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
Cannot love this more. All the ways that your work,
what you do, shows up in your life. Keep it coming.
In fact, give us a call with yours eight seven
seven three one zero four MSJ.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
It makes total sense. With as much time you spend
doing your work every day, every week, that's.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
Can't turn off those things. Edward says, I'm an eer nurse.
I've had to start CPR twice in restaurants where I frequent,
But if most nurses are being honest. Unless it looks
life threatening, we're not making eye contact.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
Okay, well that's Edward's opinion.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
I think he just sat on his floork he's going
to be okay.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Daniel Well, that's a personal decision when you're off that clock,
I guess. Danielle worked in custom whole self framing for
eighteen years, so whenever I'm out somewhere, I always notice
the art and can probably tell you who makes the
molding mats and where the prints came from. I can
also look at a picture and tell you what the
size is within one of two inches, just by eyeballing it.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
That makes sense to me. I bet I'll say, he
ses you're throwing a party at your house, he shows
up and that's hobby lobby right there. Somebody went cheap.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
I understand the other side of what you're saying, though, Jodi,
is it could wind up being a curse on your life.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
I mean, yeah, sometimes.

Speaker 3 (23:52):
I can't just like that. Every time you walk in
and you see a painting or picture.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
Jackie, Jackie, I worked at a bank for thirteen years.
I still turn my all the same way too.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
Oh yeah, yeah, for different reasons. Yeah, it's bad luck. Janine.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
I love this too. Janine says, I work in a
chemical lab. Measuring correctly is very important, so when I'm cooking,
I'm always serious about my measurements.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
That's cool.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
That was very cool. You're probably baking. You're probably perfect, not.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
Doing a pinch of this and a pinch of that.
It's all by the book.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
Cadet says, I work in retail and merchandising. When I
shop and shelves are a mess, I sometimes start putting
stuff where it belongs. My daughter has to remind me,
you don't work here. That's cute. I bet you're folding
it home is awesome too.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
I bet you probably memorize QW numbers too. Not a
little bit of the barcode stuff.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
I don't know if you memorize numbers, Murphy. I don't
think that means she memorizes.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
That's a replacement, right there, Charlie.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
I'm a medical laboratory technician, and I know enough to
be dangerous about lab results. My family will sometimes ask
me to review their numbers, and my favorite one, Trish,
I work in insurance, so everything else he jumps out
at me as a liability. It drives my family crazy.
I have to tell you a little couple story, a
little married couple story.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
Ab us.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Okay, so this is what's funny. Every evening for the
last few weeks, Murphy asks me a question, and I
know he's going to ask it same question. When he does,
I know we're onto something. Correct. I've always said it's
cool to have something. You have to have your own

(25:37):
separate lives and interests. Yes, but you also should share
some important things. I don't think it's healthy to share
every single thing or to have a completely separate life. Correct,
And so it's always important to maybe share something fun,
like a show like binging something. So every evening around
dinner time, Murphy looks at me lately and goes, do

(25:58):
you want to watch another episode?

Speaker 1 (26:00):
And I mean The Crown.

Speaker 3 (26:01):
The Crown is prominence.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
I find it's so cute and funny because out of us,
I'm the entertainment junkie and you are not. However, when
Murphy is on a show, he's different.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
I'm reinvesting into it. I'm reinvested in it. And the
only thing is with the Crown. Now that we're in
seasons five and six, they've changed the cast the actors
and actresses in and that takes getting used to because
like Olivia Coleman's amazing this Queen Elizabeth and now she's
not in the last two seasons because they have to
let the queen age, you know. Yeah, but it is

(26:37):
what it is. But yeah, I'm with you, Jo.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
Now I miss the other Philip too, oh man, the
other Phillip was my favorite.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
So great.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Anyway, I just think it's funny, you know, and it's
something to remember that it's something you can share no
matter how long you've been together with somebody, you can
share and it's an hour a day or less bond.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
It also creates the bens cheat situation. You feel guilty
if you go to watch an episode without somebody else.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
You know, we've never done that.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Well no, and that's what I'm saying. I know that
there are people that do that, but we don't.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
Wait, you haven't even done that, Jody, No way, if
you had an episode and something and why.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
Would I do that? No, It's a shared thing, yea.
Even when we were watching Now, I watched Mad Men
like a mad Woman by myself the first time through,
and then I knew and then we watched it together
tomorrow because one of the best.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Ever and for a couple, and it was like the
top five of that list of the greatest TV shows
of all time. That you do that more.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Yeah, But also if you feel like you don't have
the same sort of interest, that's okay.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
You can.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
You can find one show that you both would enjoy.
Maybe not everything, but one. It's a really good thing
to do together. You know, we love hearing from you anytime,
but when we're not here, you can always call and
leave us a voicemail at eight seven seven three one
zero four MSJ.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Never miss a call. Murphy, Sam and Jody twenty four hour.

Speaker 6 (28:05):
Voicemail Love y'all show. Got a not a complaint. I
just needed to voice this. I really miss Murphy's voice.
It's like, you're such a great blend, the three of you.
It's like the Morning Show without one of your voices

(28:25):
is kind of like having a bacon, egg and cheese
biscuit and they ran out of cheese. So it's good,
but it's just not the same. So love you show.
You've been up, Murphy. I can't wait to hear your
voice again.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Oh, thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah, it's I am back.
My voice is it's still recovery. But yeah, the fluvars
really did a number on me. So for a couple
of days last week I couldn't speak at all. But
I am back. Thank you. That means a lot.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
So y'all did catch that right?

Speaker 2 (28:57):
That Murphy's the cheese.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
Yeah got.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
I always thought Sam was the cheese. But you know,
I'll go with the bacon. I'll think bacon. Let's check
out the voicemail. I think we have another.

Speaker 5 (29:08):
Well, good morning, Love your show, longtime listener. Two points
the lol I got tickled because I have a friend's
mother who thinks WTL means well, that's fantastic, would send
out to all of my friends and didn't really understand
it's kind of funny. And then I also to this

(29:28):
point about saving voicemails. I do that as well. I
have a mother in law who passed away and I
still have her voicemails and it's important to me to
hang on to it. But anyway, love your show, take
care of everyone and each other.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
Bye bye. Thank you for that. The lol thing is
that I have a relative whom I adore, and I
would send him something, you know, even thoughtful you know,
our dog is sick, and he would send back Lol.
I'm like, it's not funny. But then I learned he

(30:03):
he thought it meant lots of love. Yeah, but WTF
meaning well, that's fantastic, is actually fantastic? It really could.
The newest home trend could end up being your favorite
little spot in your home, and it's really not that
hard to create. I think the hardest part is figuring

(30:26):
out where. And we mentioned that the other day in
Three Things to Know the Newest Home Trend, and you
can see them on social media and Pinterest. Rest corners
little places to chill out, take a nap. People are
taking little corner areas and putting up dividers or curtains
and putting their favorite like lounger or you know, you

(30:49):
know whatever, wherever you.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Would want your.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
Little Yeah, it's a place to sit and meditate or
take a nap. I mean straight up nap would be
my favorite.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Is it walled off though from the rest of everything
with a curtain or whatever? Does it have to be
or is it just as it should be?

Speaker 2 (31:05):
I mean no, there's no wrong way to do your
own resting corner. But a lot of people if you
google that and want to look at that. You're going
to find that they're being done in all kinds of
creative ways. And I love that idea. There are people
who have walk in closets who are using that as.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
Thinking that's perfect. It's got the door built in.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
Yeah, you used to have in your house a game
room for your kids. I remember it was still do
so that's the game.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
I mean, there's nobody there to play games.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
So what I'm saying is you could make it a
nap space.

Speaker 3 (31:35):
Well, yeah, but I also live alone, so I have
no one to get away from. Still, matter where I
go in the house area is.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
The rest corner. It's probably not as much to get
away from someone as it would be in the world
of meditation. For your having your cushion for example, Right.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
It's supposed to be a low traffic area. Yeah, a
place for you to decompress. A lot of people get.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Away from Gus your dog.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yes, a lot of people are using curtains and privacy screens,
moving furniture or whatever you have to do to make
you feel more secluded. It does make more sense if
you've got a lot of people in the family, A
lot of news here in the space. But I here's
here's another reason I like it, Murphy, follow me. There's
some real thought behind the idea of not napping in

(32:17):
your bed. Your bed should be for sleep at you know,
overnight or whenever you sleep.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
The bedroom in general. I've read that before a bunch
of times office.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
And I nap better when it's not in the bed.
I just do. It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
He maps best in the family room on the comfy couch.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:33):
Their sofa napping is wonderful. It just feels like it
just feels like you're camping or something. I don't know
what it is. Mentally, Sofa nappings.

Speaker 2 (32:41):
Just exactly what the rest corner spot is supposed to
be for. And if you have one, let us know.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
Ye hit us up eight seven seven three one zero
four MSJ.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
It's keep the Wow Wednesday, favorite day of the week, guys.
You know, Keith wow is.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
Keep the Wow is your personal motto.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
It is And I whant to get to some of
your comments, like Kelly's and Pamela out your you know,
keep the Wow moments and mottos. But you, guys understand
the significance of where I am today. I'm away from you, guys,
broadcasting you know I'm doing. I'm at a conference.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
Yeah, that's why it sounds a little funny.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Does it sound funny? I'm sorry, No, no, no, it's.

Speaker 1 (33:17):
All the jokes. You're talent and must be that in
room wi. Okay, listen.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
The significance is this is the same conference. I can't
remember how many years ago. I know that you will know, Sam,
that I came to this conference without the two of you,
and I was asked to speak and be the first
person to open a big session with hundreds of people. Oh,
and I was super nervous. I was super nervous. And
that is where Keith the Wow was born for me

(33:44):
in my head, because after it you didn't know that
it's where it was born. Okay, so remember your father
had passed away.

Speaker 3 (33:52):
Yeah, and I did remember that. I do remember my
dad passing away. I remember everybody being at the film
like that except Jody, except Jody, who was We were
keeping the.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
Wow representing Murphy. Sam and Jody at a conference, and
so you got you were supposed to be here with me,
But Murphy staid back.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
Important to the funeral.

Speaker 3 (34:15):
Hey, thanks for keeping that wow, Murphy.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
We stop stop anyway. After I was so nervous to
open this session, and I made a little joke and
it did go over. And you know, afterward that night,
I had a lot of people come up and go,
oh this is great, Oh wow, this was funny, oh wow.
And I heard that so many times. I was like,
oh wow, I'm going to keep this. I told myself

(34:41):
those words, I'm going to keep this wow, keep this feeling.
And I told myself that for years in my head.
That's how and why it was born.

Speaker 1 (34:49):
I love that cool. It didn't it wasn't there like
a celebrity present or something that was that made it
extra nerveous.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
Yeah, there were several celebrities, some NFL players, and that's
when you went wow. Yeah, kind of. To keep the
wow is just a personal motto to have in your
head for when you have done something that you've wowed yourself.
It's about confidence because I really needed it, Kelly says
on our Facebook page. It's always good to have a

(35:17):
motto and feel proud of yourself. It feels like things
are programmed to break us down and make us feel inferior,
but we need to build ourselves back up in our
own minds. So true, Kelly, you get it, keep it coming.
We love hearing from you.
