Eight sixty six wash FM, thenumber one Chili I yield to you.
What's bringing you some joy this morning? What's making you feel good?
Well? I went to the mallyesterday, something I haven't done and I
can't remember the last time I physicallywalked into a mall. There's a new
store in Tyson's that I wanted tocheck out. I did, and it
was weird. It was great.It was great. I found a few
(00:43):
bargains. It's called Primark. Idon't know if you've heard of it,
but anyway, I went and Igot some cute pieces. I mean,
it's been a minute since I physicallyhave shopped in a brick and mortar place.
What about you? Right for me, it's the fact that I was
talking to my significant other last nightand I just kind of ran said,
tell me five reasons why you loveme? Oh wow, she gave me
the five reasons, and I wasjust, you know, kind of taken
(01:07):
aback by the fact that she keptnotes on little things that really means something
to her and I but just hearingit, you know, said like at
the drop of a hat, Iwas like, wow, maybe there is
such a thing as a someone Wellit's little things, you know. So
so I don't mean it's Sarah's stereotypically, Okay, it's a woman that will
ask a man, so, whydo you love me? What do you
(01:29):
love about me? Did you reciprocatethe answer? In other words, did
you give her five things you loveabout her? Didn't ask? I just
asked kind of at random before Ifell asleep last evening, And I mean,
I could give you more than fivereasons why I love her. And
one of those new reasons is lastnight, you know. I mean,
it's just you know, those thosereasons kind of you know, they shuffle
like a deck of cards. Sometimesdifferent things move to the top of it.
(01:51):
But you don't know what made youask. You just decided, you
know, I do kind of knowwhat made me ask. I was just
you know, there are times whenyou let yourself get it kind of lost
in your thoughts when it comes tocertain doubts, certain things or oh okay,
certain decisions you have to make,and maybe you're not sure yourself for
whatever reason. It's not that Ineeded to be reassured. I just asked
(02:12):
in random okay, and just hearingjust at the drop of a hat that
answer, it makes you realize whatyou're worth, you know what I mean.
It also makes you realize you've gotan amazing woman. I am pretty
lucky. Yeah, I'm pretty evenif I don't show it all the time,
you know, because life can bethat way anyway. What's making you
feel good? Before five o'clock thismorning, let us know eight sixty six
Wash FM, the number one eightsix six nineteen seven forty three sixty one
(02:36):
New Olympic sports are rolling out.There's stuff down the line that's got people
going hmm, either hmm like that'sawesome or m that's not. Like what
is that all about? We'll talkabout it next with Toby and Chilly in
the Morning. Lots of new Olympicsports coming Toby and Chilly in the Morning
ninety seven point one wash FM.Breakdancing makes it debut at this year's Olympics.
People are like, hum, breakdancing. Really. We had a lively
(02:59):
conversation about that earlier this week.Well, we also found out some new
games that are being considered for theOlympics, including gaming as in video games,
as in Valorant, as in Roadblocks, as in insert game here,
Rocket League. These are all gameswhich are highly competitive, which people around
(03:19):
the world play and they take veryvery seriously. I take it, Chilli.
You're not too into the idea ofgaming being an Olympic sports so not
in the official Olympics. I thoughtit was going to be Official Olympics.
But the IOC created esports games,Olympic esports games, So to me,
that's a whole different category and itmakes more sense if you know what I'm
(03:39):
saying. Well, I know thatthey're trying it out that way this year,
but then you know in a futureOlympics. Yeah, if it's successful,
that's how they did the break dancingthing. If it's successful, you
could be playing for the Golden RocketLeague. So this is where I'm going
to get a lot of heat.I think. I don't think that it
requires athleticism per se that other thingslike dance or other sports do. So
(04:03):
I just think they should be aseparate thing. Esports can stay esports,
but then like actual Olympics should bedifferent. I'm actually completely one hundred percent
in opposition to that. I thinkthat they should be because I think there
are many athletic things about esports andgaming, and I think it's a real
(04:24):
deal thing for people, Like thereare people who take this gaming so seriously.
It's an NCAA sport. Now whynot win the gold? You have
to train non stop, they getbig sponsorships. The second most watched sporting
event on the planet next to theNFL. Esports and gaming, so I
mean why not. I mean that'swhat the Olympics would be for to showcase,
(04:46):
Hey, the very best at whateverthat endeavor may be, to each
his own things on the video.To me, just don't compute as sport.
But hey, maybe my son oneday will That's what I was going
to say. One day your sonand my daughter are to be winning gold
medals for their Olympic contributions. Kyleis already a part of an NCAAE sports

next six months. Multiple agencies reportingarrests during a day of pro Palestinian protests
(09:05):
around DC. Nine arrests were reportedby DC police, eight by US Park
Police, and six by US CapitolPolice, and then a group of protesters
were pepper sprayed by US Capitol Policeofficers after allegedly refusing to move back from
a police line. The search ison for a bank robber in Alexandria,
(09:28):
police saying a man walked into aP and C Bank branch in the Old
Town area Tuesday afternoon and was ableto take money from a teller before fleeing
the scene. Olympic gold medalist DominiqueDawes now has a statue in her honor

She also graduated from the University ofMaryland back in two thousand and two,
(09:50):
and according to a recent survey,fifty eight percent of adults have witnessed

like they are stuck living where theyare. Many are also concerned about the
affordability of housing, crime, andmaking home repairs. Forecast for today cloudy
(10:11):
and humid, a chance of storms. Highs around eighty three. Right now
seventy two in College Park. Aboutan hour ago, we were talking about
the Olympics and new sports, specificallythe addition of East sports and gaming to
the Olympics. Yes, that's right. A gold medal in Rocket League or
perhaps a silver medal in Call ofDuty. Yes, this could be a
(10:33):
thing. They've greenled it. You'vegot thoughts we want to hear from you.
Talkback microphone wide open. If you'resending to your iHeart app, tell
us what you think about this.I'm sure you have. Some thoughts got
to be sent into the app touse it. Tap Speaks and we'll get
into it next week. The Greatis from Arlington. You had some thoughts
to share this morning. What's onyour mind. I'm just curious as to
how or why you think that itrequires athleticism to be a gamer. That
(10:56):
doesn't make sense to me. Oh, I don't know. I don't know
that they're all sitting down and there'sa lot of hand eye coordination and there's
a lot of skill that goes intothat. I've watched these gamers play.
They're pretty serious, man. Yeah, but serious and athleticism is different.
And I thought the Olympics were aboutathleticism and body movement and all that and
(11:18):
being able to do certain things.I think that might have been the case
once upon a time, but nowI think it's more about the spirit of
competition. Oh my. And ifthat's the case, then it makes perfect
sense that the sports and gaming wouldbe a part of the Olympics. So
I think what they're doing, littleby little is they're redefining what the Olympics
(11:39):
are about. Traditionally it's about sportsand athleticism, and they're shifting to a
more competitive nature. If that makessense, that makes total sense. They
didn't have snowboarding back in you know, ancient Greece when the Olympics began.
But see that still requires athleticism.I mean, being a snowboarder is not
just sitting there with your thumbs.I mean, come on, I don't
(12:01):
know. You gotta be in prettydecent shape to be able to play these
NonStop marathon Rocket League games. Well, I can tell you my son sitting
in front of screen is not ingood shape. I don't know, and
Chili comes home with a six figuresponsorship. You're telling me that my son,
if he's a couch potato, isgoing to be in great shape.
I'm just saying, there's a reasonwhy I have sports are the second most
(12:24):
watched professional sporting event next to theNFL globally. Nobody's doubting that it's popular.
We're just sitting here scratching our headswhy it even belongs in the Olympics.
That's all athleticism. Sometimes that athleticismis mental. You have to work
that mental muscle out. I thinkthat's ridiculous. You think it's ridiculous.

even if that was guilt. Tellus your story. We love listening to
them. Here at ninety seven pointone was CHEFM, and we love listening
to your crazy first date stories likeNancy and Gaithersburg, who has quite the
story to tell us about a dateshe went on. Yeah, her date
did something very bizarre with popcorn atthe movie theater, very bizarre. Indeed,
(20:08):
wait till you hear what happened next. It's Toby and Chilly's crazy birth
date Nancy and Gaithersburg. Good morning, Chili, and I cannot wait to
hear this story, so lay iton us. So I was going on
a first date with my best friend'sroommate and we went to a movie and
he bought this extra large bucket ofpopcorn, which he devoured on his own.
(20:32):
And then at the end of themovie, he decided, as we
were leaving, he walked down allthe rows and people that had not finished
their popcorn. He took it andpoured it into his empty bucket. Wow,
and filled up his bucket with otherpeople's abandoned popcorn well to take it
home for his roommates. Oh lord, that's a help yourself doggy bag here.
(20:53):
I thought you were going to sayhe was just trying to prevent littering
good grief. So as he's doingthat, are you making fun of him?
Are you saying anything or asking him? I think I was in shock.
I think I did say, whatare you doing? Like you don't
know somebody what they did in thatbag of popcorns? You know, popcorn
is a bit too intimate and personal. What did Freddie Frugel have to say
(21:15):
for himself? That's exactly I thinkwhy he was doing it, because he
was Freddy Frugal. Surely love him. Yeah, I was like, I
wonder if they know that this isa habit of his, that he's basically
bringing other people's finger touch popcorn.I think. So did you guys continue
or was that the end of theday. At that point I saw him
(21:36):
again because he lived with my bestfriend, so the roommate actually ended up
marrying him. He kind of grewon me, but we are not together
any longer, so than kind ofrealized this guy's kind of crazy. He's
the reason you filed for divorce becauseof his popcorn stuff, among other things.
Yes, did you ever tell theroommates about the popcorn and how he
(22:00):
brought them leftovers that first date?I did not, because the other part
of the story is I had drivento the movie and then when we got
back to his place, he leanedover to kiss me and spilled the whole
bucket in my car, and thenit was so embrare that he ran out.
Oh so you love to you witheverybody else's popcorn? I love this.
(22:22):
I can't believe you gave this anotherchance. I can't believe she divorced
him. Not wait a minute,yeah, I can't. Both of those
things are true. We'll be gladyou're done with him. I am hopefully
whomever you take to see this showwill not be into used popcorn. Absolutely,
that's fantastic. I'm so excited.Yeah, you're gonna get it.
(22:45):

such a thing as a someone Wellit's little things, you know. So
so I don't mean it's Sarah's stereotypically, Okay, it's a woman that will
ask a man, so, whydo you love me? What do you
(01:29):
love about me? Did you reciprocatethe answer? In other words, did
you give her five things you loveabout her? Didn't ask? I just
asked kind of at random before Ifell asleep last evening, And I mean,
I could give you more than fivereasons why I love her. And
one of those new reasons is lastnight, you know. I mean,
it's just you know, those thosereasons kind of you know, they shuffle
like a deck of cards. Sometimesdifferent things move to the top of it.
(01:51):
But you don't know what made youask. You just decided, you
know, I do kind of knowwhat made me ask. I was just
you know, there are times whenyou let yourself get it kind of lost
in your thoughts when it comes tocertain doubts, certain things or oh okay,
certain decisions you have to make,and maybe you're not sure yourself for
whatever reason. It's not that Ineeded to be reassured. I just asked
(02:12):
in random okay, and just hearingjust at the drop of a hat that
answer, it makes you realize whatyou're worth, you know what I mean.
It also makes you realize you've gotan amazing woman. I am pretty
lucky. Yeah, I'm pretty evenif I don't show it all the time,
you know, because life can bethat way anyway. What's making you
feel good? Before five o'clock thismorning, let us know eight sixty six

(02:36):
New Olympic sports are rolling out.There's stuff down the line that's got people
going hmm, either hmm like that'sawesome or m that's not. Like what
is that all about? We'll talkabout it next with Toby and Chilly in
the Morning. Lots of new Olympicsports coming Toby and Chilly in the Morning
ninety seven point one wash FM.Breakdancing makes it debut at this year's Olympics.
People are like, hum, breakdancing. Really. We had a lively
(02:59):
conversation about that earlier this week.Well, we also found out some new
games that are being considered for theOlympics, including gaming as in video games,
as in Valorant, as in Roadblocks, as in insert game here,
Rocket League. These are all gameswhich are highly competitive, which people around
(03:19):
the world play and they take veryvery seriously. I take it, Chilli.
You're not too into the idea ofgaming being an Olympic sports so not
in the official Olympics. I thoughtit was going to be Official Olympics.
But the IOC created esports games,Olympic esports games, So to me,
that's a whole different category and itmakes more sense if you know what I'm
(03:39):
saying. Well, I know thatthey're trying it out that way this year,
but then you know in a futureOlympics. Yeah, if it's successful,
that's how they did the break dancingthing. If it's successful, you
could be playing for the Golden RocketLeague. So this is where I'm going
to get a lot of heat.I think. I don't think that it
requires athleticism per se that other thingslike dance or other sports do. So
(04:03):
I just think they should be aseparate thing. Esports can stay esports,
but then like actual Olympics should bedifferent. I'm actually completely one hundred percent
in opposition to that. I thinkthat they should be because I think there
are many athletic things about esports andgaming, and I think it's a real
(04:24):
deal thing for people, Like thereare people who take this gaming so seriously.
It's an NCAA sport. Now whynot win the gold? You have
to train non stop, they getbig sponsorships. The second most watched sporting
event on the planet next to theNFL. Esports and gaming, so I
mean why not. I mean that'swhat the Olympics would be for to showcase,
(04:46):
Hey, the very best at whateverthat endeavor may be, to each
his own things on the video.To me, just don't compute as sport.

(09:05):
around DC. Nine arrests were reportedby DC police, eight by US Park
Police, and six by US CapitolPolice, and then a group of protesters
were pepper sprayed by US Capitol Policeofficers after allegedly refusing to move back from

She also graduated from the University ofMaryland back in two thousand and two,
(09:50):
and according to a recent survey,fifty eight percent of adults have witnessed

like they are stuck living where theyare. Many are also concerned about the
affordability of housing, crime, andmaking home repairs. Forecast for today cloudy
(10:11):
and humid, a chance of storms. Highs around eighty three. Right now
seventy two in College Park. Aboutan hour ago, we were talking about
the Olympics and new sports, specificallythe addition of East sports and gaming to
the Olympics. Yes, that's right. A gold medal in Rocket League or
perhaps a silver medal in Call ofDuty. Yes, this could be a
(10:33):
thing. They've greenled it. You'vegot thoughts we want to hear from you.
Talkback microphone wide open. If you'resending to your iHeart app, tell
us what you think about this.I'm sure you have. Some thoughts got
to be sent into the app touse it. Tap Speaks and we'll get
into it next week. The Greatis from Arlington. You had some thoughts
to share this morning. What's onyour mind. I'm just curious as to
how or why you think that itrequires athleticism to be a gamer. That
(10:56):
doesn't make sense to me. Oh, I don't know. I don't know
that they're all sitting down and there'sa lot of hand eye coordination and there's
a lot of skill that goes intothat. I've watched these gamers play.
They're pretty serious, man. Yeah, but serious and athleticism is different.
And I thought the Olympics were aboutathleticism and body movement and all that and
(11:18):
being able to do certain things.I think that might have been the case
once upon a time, but nowI think it's more about the spirit of
competition. Oh my. And ifthat's the case, then it makes perfect
sense that the sports and gaming wouldbe a part of the Olympics. So
I think what they're doing, littleby little is they're redefining what the Olympics
(11:39):
are about. Traditionally it's about sportsand athleticism, and they're shifting to a
more competitive nature. If that makessense, that makes total sense. They
didn't have snowboarding back in you know, ancient Greece when the Olympics began.
But see that still requires athleticism.I mean, being a snowboarder is not
just sitting there with your thumbs.I mean, come on, I don't
(12:01):
know. You gotta be in prettydecent shape to be able to play these
NonStop marathon Rocket League games. Well, I can tell you my son sitting
in front of screen is not ingood shape. I don't know, and
Chili comes home with a six figuresponsorship. You're telling me that my son,
if he's a couch potato, isgoing to be in great shape.
I'm just saying, there's a reasonwhy I have sports are the second most
(12:24):
watched professional sporting event next to theNFL globally. Nobody's doubting that it's popular.
We're just sitting here scratching our headswhy it even belongs in the Olympics.
That's all athleticism. Sometimes that athleticismis mental. You have to work
that mental muscle out. I thinkthat's ridiculous. You think it's ridiculous.

story to tell us about a dateshe went on. Yeah, her date
did something very bizarre with popcorn atthe movie theater, very bizarre. Indeed,
(20:08):
wait till you hear what happened next. It's Toby and Chilly's crazy birth
date Nancy and Gaithersburg. Good morning, Chili, and I cannot wait to
hear this story, so lay iton us. So I was going on
a first date with my best friend'sroommate and we went to a movie and
he bought this extra large bucket ofpopcorn, which he devoured on his own.
(20:32):
And then at the end of themovie, he decided, as we
were leaving, he walked down allthe rows and people that had not finished
their popcorn. He took it andpoured it into his empty bucket. Wow,
and filled up his bucket with otherpeople's abandoned popcorn well to take it
home for his roommates. Oh lord, that's a help yourself doggy bag here.
(20:53):
I thought you were going to sayhe was just trying to prevent littering
good grief. So as he's doingthat, are you making fun of him?
Are you saying anything or asking him? I think I was in shock.
I think I did say, whatare you doing? Like you don't
know somebody what they did in thatbag of popcorns? You know, popcorn
is a bit too intimate and personal. What did Freddie Frugel have to say
(21:15):
for himself? That's exactly I thinkwhy he was doing it, because he
was Freddy Frugal. Surely love him. Yeah, I was like, I
wonder if they know that this isa habit of his, that he's basically
bringing other people's finger touch popcorn.I think. So did you guys continue
or was that the end of theday. At that point I saw him
(21:36):
again because he lived with my bestfriend, so the roommate actually ended up
marrying him. He kind of grewon me, but we are not together
any longer, so than kind ofrealized this guy's kind of crazy. He's
the reason you filed for divorce becauseof his popcorn stuff, among other things.
Yes, did you ever tell theroommates about the popcorn and how he
(22:00):
brought them leftovers that first date?I did not, because the other part
of the story is I had drivento the movie and then when we got
back to his place, he leanedover to kiss me and spilled the whole
bucket in my car, and thenit was so embrare that he ran out.
Oh so you love to you witheverybody else's popcorn? I love this.
(22:22):
I can't believe you gave this anotherchance. I can't believe she divorced
him. Not wait a minute,yeah, I can't. Both of those
things are true. We'll be gladyou're done with him. I am hopefully
whomever you take to see this showwill not be into used popcorn. Absolutely,
that's fantastic. I'm so excited.Yeah, you're gonna get it.

costs like ten to fifteen bucks abucket. Why is that cup that costs
five to ten cents to make coststen dollars filled with some sort of beverage.
