Speaker 1 (00:02):
Wakem It gets my day going and makes me laugh.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
I love it. Mac and Schmitty in the Morning on
Star one O five point SEVENO. Good morning Smitty.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Oh it's a good one too. It's a Friday morning.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Welcome into your Friday. Thanks for sharing it with us,
Smack and Schmitty. As we're about to heat up a
little bit, go through a heat wave. I actually just
saw our friends from wood TV eight on there talking
about the weather and they had a humidity index. Yeah,
that did include the words oppressive, and we were moving
up towards oppressive on the humidity scale, which I thought
was pretty impressive.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Here's the deal. I'm just praying every single teacher next
week has ac in the classroom, because it's not done
just this weekend. We're in for a few days of
summer record heat. It feels so weird because I was
out last night and it was I mean, a nice
body and leggings weather, not even shorts, and I'm thinking,
this is so nice, this is so crisp. I'm literally
(00:59):
going to be wearing anything that tries to hide my
sweat for the next six days. But you know what,
if you wanted a little last sip of summer look
on the bright side.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
It's the celebrities goop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Well, he may be used to running the courtroom, but
now Judge matthis star Greg Mathis is headed to the
divorce courtroom. The iconic TV judge.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
In my courtroom. The disputes are real, the cases are real.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
It's time for hard decisions and tough love.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, the sixty four year old TV judge is going
to be divorcing wife Linda after almost forty years of
marriage Linda as the reason. They say irreconcilable differences as
the reason for the split, Linda listing their date of
separation as July seventeenth. Greg and Linda have two adult
(01:58):
daughters and two adult sons. Linda is asking for spousal
support in the filing, also moving to block the court's
ability to award Greg with spousal support.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Do you think he has a hard time not shouting,
but he's in the courtroom like on the other shout.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I just wonder if he comes in with a good
story like the plaintiffs and defendants always saying like, what
are you gonna tell us about? Greg, what kinds of
kind of dirty laundry will we see? Speaking of divorce, Obviously,
the not bombshall news about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez
does not mean Ben Affleck is getting back together with
ex wife Jennifer Garner. There have been reports surfacing, especially
(02:37):
over the last couple months, with how much time the
couple has spent together, that maybe they're rekindling their love.
Not the case. Source is very close with Jen say
she is still happily in a relationship with boyfriend John
Miller and nothing will be changing about that. Apparently she
worked very hard to try and help Ben with his
(02:57):
marriage to Jalo. We saw multiple times where she was
visiting with Lopez. Obviously they took family trips together, and
while Ben and Jen are doing an expert job at
cold parenting, that's it. And seeing them flying in a
private jet together earlier this week was just simply dropping
daughter Violet off at Yale.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
I mean, how full circle would that be? Though, SHWITTI
how ridiculous would it be?
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Do you want to do that? Though? No, you don't know.
If you're Ben Affleck. You just got done doing that
and it didn't go well.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Imagine how much stuff that he has monograph that says
Ben and Jen on it. I mean he's got three
relationships worth of that stuff, all right.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Finally, Drew Barrymore says she's going to try something new
when her talk show returns this fall. Take a step back,
maybe a little less handsy. The Drew Barrymore Show just
got picked up for a sixth season. She talked with
Entertainment Tonight about how excited she is and how she
gets that the handsy thing might not be great for everybody.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I'll try to practice physical distance, which is not my.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Never so hard that pandemic was for me.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I was alone in a studio by myself. Not everyone's favorite,
but I'm sorry to those people.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
It's interesting, though, She gives a little preview of what
we'll see these upcoming seasons.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Since I did ET when I was a kid, I
was very convinced that people want a collective experience, They
want community, they want to watch something and experience something together.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
We need this, We need the life affirming. We need
to feel and believe in the good.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Because it's there and I will spend every day finding it,
and by the way, it's needed for when it's not there.
Because that happens too, and life is the roller coaster.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
But what a lovely ride. I like her, So here's
the deal. Next month starts the fifth season. CBS is
greenlit a sixth, so she's good for a bit.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I'm sorry, I just couldn't take the piano in the
background during that thing. It was just too sad story
for me.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
All Right, all your celebscoop, But West Michigan StarTAC.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Apps some damn I get a good v Well, let's
dive into it. Welcome into your Friday morning. Hopefully you
were excited for a weekend here in West Michigan. We'll
kick things up in knots too. Feel like good?
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Right now?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
In Starmano found points seven, it's Mack and Schmidty, and
you don't feel like good. I've put a lot of
rescue stories I feel like in here, not many of
them involved this much chin.
Speaker 5 (05:18):
Though.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Earlier this week it was a California search and rescue
crew that was looking for a seventy eight year old hiker.
Now this guy, though, was an experienced climber. His name
was Kaisu Yang and he had gone missing on August seventeenth,
And it was two days later that this crew was
out there. He had been. They had been searching for
(05:38):
more than thirty hours at this point, but all of
a sudden, on the side of the mountain Schmitty, they
encountered Jay Leno. Oh, jay Leno just happened to be
at a ranch that was halfway up this mountain while
in the national park there, the Angeles National Park, and
he was getting ready to go out on one of
(06:00):
his very fancy car rides. But turns out jay Leno
did not know where the missing hiker was. Spoiler alert
right there. However, he did thank the volunteers profusely and
sent them on their way with some extra photos. And
maybe he was good luck because it was less than
a couple hours later they found the guy. They found
the guy right after running into Jay Leno. He's gonna
(06:22):
be okay. They did airlift him out there as a precaution,
but seventy eight years old was trying to sum it
a mountain there, so he's doing okay. These guys the
heroes of the situation, and they've got pictures with Jay
Leno in all of their geared too interesting rescue for sure.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Wouldn't this be such a dream for you? Baseball fans.
A lucky nine year old from New York got to
call an inning at the Mets game earlier this week.
Nine year old Kingston name Corn lives in Manhattan. He's
in fourth grade and lived out his Mets dream expertly
(06:58):
calling an inning alongside themed analysts Scary Cohen, Keith Hernandez
and Ron Darling. This is the fourth inning of the
Mets Orioles game.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
This is so good kixty. Fifth pitch of the day.
It is Schmack through the wall of a rack that'll.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Scorn Alan Joe and Alvarez pulled in a chicken with
an RBI single for Tyron Taylor.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
That's nally three nothing against the Baltimore.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Orioles on the boy, isn't he a fay thing?
Speaker 5 (07:26):
So?
Speaker 3 (07:26):
This is part of Sportsnet New York's annual kid Cast contest.
The video is everywhere with fans of just about every
MLB team in the country saying can we do this?
Speaker 2 (07:38):
This is so cool?
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Kingston said, I'm most excited by the play by play.
I think it's very exciting. I've been practicing for years.
Really sweet. I put this up on our stories if
you make sure to follow us on Instagram. At West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Star Man, that kid is too good. Lookout but natty.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
It's the Salle. Celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Ooh, this could get real messy. Nineties and two thousands
heart throb Joey Lawrence, part of the famed Lawrence Brothers,
facing a divorce that could get ugly. Joey's wife of
only two years, Samantha, just filed to divorce him, listing
June as their date of separation. But here's where it
(08:23):
gets a little interesting. Allegedly, Joey carried on an affair
with an actress he starred alongside in an upcoming movie.
And this is according to the actresses now estranged Ugby.
Actress Malina Elvaz's estranged husband, Edward Ryder, makes the adultery
accusations in new documents from their divorce he filed in
(08:44):
New Jersey. The timeline is very revealing. The documents say
that Molina's estranged husband claims he found out in late
March that Joey and Molina were hooking up. He makes
the allegation that a few weeks this happened just before
Joey's wife than filed to end their marriage. Joey and
Melina are accused of having this affair in California, which
(09:06):
is interesting because they start alongside each other in the
upcoming movie Socked In for Christmas, which is coming to Hallmark.
And apparently Molina has scrubbed her Instagram of any pictures
that she originally had up of her and Joey.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Oncept, I feel like it'd be wrong to answer with
anything other than WHOA Yes.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Speaking of divorce cases, Jennifer Lopez ain't wasted any time
asking a court to drop Affleck as her legal last name.
Who so here are some more details. Apparently, sources say
Jenny Ben have been trying to hash out a settlement
for months behind the scenes, with as little publicity as possible.
(09:52):
That's why she just a few days ago officially filed
documents of divorce. But while the sources say talks her continuing,
they become increasingly acrimonious. There are even points where Jen
and Ben are refusing to speak to each other at all,
so you can sense the bitterness here genfile docs checking
the box to have her legal name restored. So right
(10:14):
now she is Jennifer Lynn Affleck and now wants to
be Jennifer Lynn Lopez as soon as this sal gets
worked out.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yeah, Jenny from the block. Affleck didn't really have the
ring to it not working great.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Finally, Lions fans, are you ready for this? At least
according to Sports Illustrated, you're winning the Super Bowl. Their
football preview issue, which dropped yesterday, features players Jared Goff,
I'm and Ross Saint Brown and Penny Sewell, plus a
classic Cadillac convertible on the cover with the headline drive
(10:48):
to revive the resurgent Lions, Right team, right town, right time.
According to the writers, they say, I just think you
get a feel for some of these teams. You know,
how complete they look, how well coached they are. But
the Lions just seem to have every kind of biomarker
of a successful team. Look at the most complete team
(11:09):
in football right now. It's the Lions. And they're saying
super Bowl winner.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I mean, come on, schmitty, it is. You know we're
not talking about the same old Lions here anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Exfinitely, you want to hype it up. I'm very superstitious
about this. I would be It's like the cover of
NFL Madden and you don't want your team to be
on there.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Guys, it's fun news, but like, I.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Hope it's okay. All of your celeb Scoop I put
up that entire article as well. They had a lot
of good things to say about your lions. West Michigan
Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Good morning too, Happy Friday. It's Mac and Schmidty. And
you know often say looking at life through the eyes
of a child, I wish you could be amazed by
things like you can for a kid.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Learn so much. I got to do the coolest thing
last night. Finally. I talked about this on the show.
I took Will to the drive in guy, Where's to
see Twisters? At the Getty Drive in and Muskegan. It
was like magical as an understatement.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And last night was gorgeous.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
That is the coolest thing to do, first and foremost,
if you have kids and you've never gone to the Getty,
it is amazing. We decked out the truck bed, pillows, blankets,
perfect night. It was the coolest best seat, like, it
was just awesome, me and him. It was kind of
his end of summer treat. I was like, you know,
(12:30):
we're not I'm gonna bring your sister. This will just
be you and I. We got concessions. It was so cool.
He got to stay up late nights. We didn't roll
home till like midnight, and it was amazing. But as
we're sitting there, he's looking around and if you've ever
been out to Getty, they've got four screens out there
that are showing movies. So you've got this giant field
(12:50):
with like these poles that you park between. It's just
it's kind of like an old school driving, only you
don't have to take the speaker and hang it on
your car window anymore. And he's looking at me, and
he's trying to figure out what's happening here, because he
kept thinking we were going to a real theater because
just what five days ago he went to his first
ever movie in a theater when we went to see
Despicable Me four. So he's like, so it's gonna be
(13:12):
on that screen. I said yeah, and he goes, can
we sit outside? I go yeah, isn't that so cool?
He goes, but how does it work? How did they
get a TV out here? I go, well, like it's
with a projector. He's like, what's a projector, and I'm like,
I am too dumb to explain this, Like all of
(13:32):
this is so foreign to this six year old because
he's never seen old school technology like this. Yeah, and
then so the previews start and he kind of understands, like,
all right, I don't know how this works, but whatever,
this is like the coolest screen time I've ever gotten.
And then I go to turn the car battery on
so we can listen through the radio, and that, I mean,
that was like another ten minute conversation. He's like, well,
(13:52):
where's the sound coming from. I go, it comes through
the radio station. He goes, your radio station. I said no,
and I'm explaining, like it's you know, a short form frequency.
It's just here, you do it. He's like, but where's
the wire And I'm like, there's no wire. It's just
kind of like a like a blue tooth. He goes, oh,
so like it's coming from my tablet and I was
(14:13):
like no. And I'm sitting here thinking, all right, I'm
really losing the magic of this. And I can hear
there were probably like twelve fifteen other cars right around us,
and I can hear other people having this exact same
conversations with like they're teenagers and you just cannot figure
out how to explain technology to your kids that they've
(14:35):
never seen before. The same thing happened when we were
at the Henry Ford two weeks ago in Detroit.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
He saw an iMac from nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
One of the big colorful ones, huge ones.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I think I think we got him in my school
when I was in like second grade. Yeah, and he
looks at me and he goes, Wow, what a weird
colorful TV. I was like, well, that's actually a computer,
and he goes, no, it's not.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I have you ever seen a computer?
Speaker 5 (14:57):
Mom?
Speaker 2 (14:58):
I think I know it if I saw a computer.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
It's kind of hard to realize generationally. I'm now at
the age we're just the things that I had and
the things I grew up with are going to be
so mind blowing to them.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
I think it's interesting too to look at it from
the perspective of when it's an older piece of technology.
Now you can also get that sense of amazement because
that's the stuff that they never seen. Like, my kids
are blown away by like old timey music boxes. You know,
they're like, oh, the needles, move on it. That's insane.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
They just set up our record player in the living
two weeks ago and I was like, don't touch it.
Then natle scratch, you know.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
And they don't know that mechanical typewriters. They're like, are
you like you would have to type every single word
on this.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
I don't think my kids have ever seen a typewriter
in real life. I don't think they'd even know what
that is.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
They just like the sound of it. We have like
an old one that doesn't work in the basement, and
the kids are like nineteen twenty four newspaper reporters down there,
like it's hot off the Bronts. I a scoop for you.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
When we were at that museum, I remember showing them
a laser disc and I was like, to be fair,
you guys, that technology never took off.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Key time with this spilling tea, Take time.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Spill the tea, Sweetheart, all right, Star one oh five
point seven. It's Mack and Schmidty. So every Friday we
talked drama, and this is your drama stuff that's going on,
and you're not quite sure how to handle it. This
is a hard one because it's like we've only been
back in school for some of West Michigan for days.
We've already got carpool problems. Got an email, we'll call
(16:25):
her Melanie. She said, I know you guys have been
talking about back to school all week. We started Tuesday,
and there's already drama. I am in a carpool with
two other neighbors. One, i'll admit, helicopter mom that decided
after one day she didn't trust the other mom in
our carpool. But she won't say anything. She just keeps
making weird excuses. Now the third mom is mouthing off
(16:47):
to me leave the carpool or tell the helicopter mom
to own it and speak up. I don't have time
or energy for carpool chaos.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Oh the good news is this is why they make
the bus people.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
But what everybody can bus like? We don't have bussing. Okay,
so we live so close to my son's elementary school,
we are not offer a bus route. So for a
lot of people, this is what you have to do.
Were you ever in a carpool?
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I was never in a carpool, not one that was
like consistently.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I did twelve years of carpooling, and let me tell
you it, it can be incredible, and like this, it
can be really really hard. Like we had some issues
where at one point we actually had to kindly tell
a family they could no longer carpool in our group
because their kids were like so out of control in
the car.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
That has to be so awkward to have that conversation
with some other pets. Like you don't even have that
room of like being a teacher or a principal, where
you have this authority. It's just some of the parents.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Maybe that's why I'm coming at this from a certain way.
Bail on this carpool, get out, get out, find find
some other neighbors, Melanie, or like, I know that it's
probably exceptionally stressful because I bet you start work way
before your kids have to be dropped off, And that's
why this is so helpful. But if you're with another
parent that can't have an adult conversation about problems they're
(18:03):
having and something as simple as a carpool, I do
not think you want to deal with this for an
entire sployer.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Can you just call out the helicopter mom and just
say to them, like, hey, if you want to take
your kid to school every day, do us a paper
and take ours too. Let's change this carpool. We get
all you helicopter mom.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
And what if this is your kid's best friend's mom. Yeah,
and suddenly she don't want to be around you anymore
and your child doesn't have that friend. It can get
so sketchy. I say, back it off and find another way.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
All right, Well what do you think we got this going?
On Facebook? Their opinions differ over there too. A's West
Michigan Star on this And of course each and every
week we'd like your drama spill it with this will
keep you anonymous tea time every Friday, hit us up.
That's West Michigan Star.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
It's the celebrity scoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Well, this was definitely a letdown for Beyond Say fans.
Last night marked the end of the DNC in Chicago,
and all day. All day, rumors had been flying that
Queen Bay was going to be a big surprise performer
as VP Harris accepted the Democratic Party's nomination to run
(19:17):
for president. I mean, out looks like TMZ. We're even
guaranteeing that she was going to be there. Last night,
and turns out no. The big surprise guest, none other
than Michigan Representative Alissa Slockin, took the stage. Okay, check
out John Stewart on The Daily Show. After this all
happened last.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
Night, speculation was running wild today there would be a
surprise guest.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Boy, did they deliver?
Speaker 7 (19:46):
Please welcome Michigan Representative Alissa Sluckin, Fredo, I am.
Speaker 6 (20:07):
In the slot, Tive, you thought there was Beyonce because
everybody thought that it was gonna be Beyonce coming out there.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
All yeah, Like half of the d NC was even
dressed in like cowboy Carter outfits. I mean everyone thought
Beyonce was gonna be there last night. Not in the case.
There had also been some rumor that Taylor Swift was
going to show up as well. She also did not
make it last night. One Superstar War surprise, though, was
Steph Curry, who recorded a video and sent it a lot,
(20:41):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Kind of an underwhelming hit right there when you built it.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Up to did we get to talk about someone in Michigan?
Speaker 2 (20:47):
I love it, which is great. I mean it would
have made sense. She could have been out there, She
could have came out Schmidty to like, yeah, all over
did not deliver.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
For the Internet, which had quite a few things to
say last night, This could be very exciting news. The
Kelsey brothers maybe making a few visits to the Mitton State.
Filings with the Treasuries, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade
Bureau show that founder's brewing company could become the brewer
for Garage Beer. This is a brand partially owned by
(21:24):
Jason and Travis Kelsey. I have to give a big
shout out to wood TV that literally wrote the headline
Taylor's boyfriend could be brewing in Michigan. Now, this is
still in the very very early stages. Garage Beer has
not announced anything yet. In fact, they tell Cranes the
partnership is still in the very early stages and they're
not in a place to comment too much. However, Andrew Sower,
(21:47):
who is co founder of Garage Beer, had nothing but
great things to say about founders, great respect for the business,
The quality and standards that they have for their products.
As a brewer is just unmatched. So could be exciting
things that maybe kind of like Mark Paul Goslier who
lives for founders and make stops there like all the time,
on the DL.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
I didn't know Zach Morris was into that Big.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Time loves Founders that maybe, I don't know, we could
see Jason and Travis maybe coming to Michigan to try
a few things out. And you know that they tend
to travel with the people they love, which I'm just
saying could lead to a Taylor visit.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
You know, you say something like that and all of
a sudden, Swifties are making a tent city outside of
Founders waiting to worship there.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
There's the worst places that Big Garden is pretty accommodating.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
True.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Finally, Channing Tatum admits, like any dad would, he is
not ready for his daughter, Everly, to watch his magic
mic performance. The actor was on SETH Meyers last night
talking about his new movie Blink twice when he brought
up the fact that him and his uh girlfriend not
fiance yet right Zoe Kravitz were at the latest Eras
Tour shows in London, and admits his dancing at the
(22:54):
Air's tour far different than what his daughter might eventually see.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
I'm so grateful that she doesn't know how I did.
When is that gonna it's gonna happen. It's going to happen,
and it's not gonna happen because you sure no, and
like it's going to be horrifying when it does.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
But but like you know, it's a lot of like
this stuff and like you know, I'm like, I'm gonna
keep it in that area. It's really it's going to
be like a reverse of like she's going to be
the parent the first time she sees Magic Mike.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
You're gonna come home and she's gonna like flip on
a lamp and be like we need to talk.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Oh my, Like it's Channing Tatum, but still weird that
that would be your dad.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Yeah, it's awkward for it. I mean, honestly, watching your
dad dance at any point in time in life is
awkward watching it be Channing Tatum and Magic Mike.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
Different level all of your celeb scoop a West Michigan
Star dot.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Com shot on a five point seven and let's fight
on this Friday morning in is battle of the sexiest
time and your opportunity to get out for an absolute
blast with the kiddos talking about hot wheels, monster trucks,
live below party. They just keep leveling it up with
each word that comes out of that sentence, I feel
like that.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Yeah, making its return to Van Handel September fourteenth and fifteenth.
Mark it down, put it in your phone, because we're
gonna manifest this win for you. One hundred men surveyed
what's your sign on a date to show you're not interested?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Sign on a date? Well, I left, went to the
bathroom and never returned. No, pretty, I mean it's a
direct cent worse direction.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
If you do that, do not be friends with me?
Speaker 5 (24:19):
Uh uh?
Speaker 3 (24:19):
That is not okay. At least give them half the bill.
That's the rudest you can be six one, six, four, five,
eight seven. One hundred men surveyed, what's your sign on
a date to show you're not interested? Caller seven? First
chance at the number one Anserday and you and the
fan ed to Monster Trucks, Live Hot Wheels, bring in
the glow party with Star win. Oh five point seven?
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Good morning star?
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Who's this?
Speaker 3 (24:46):
I'm sorry?
Speaker 2 (24:46):
What's your name? Michael? Michael? Where are you calling from today?
Man Calumba Zoo? How old are you? Michael? Eleven? So
I'm gonna I'm gonna go out on a limon say
you haven't gone out on very many dates in your
life yet. Well, hopefully your mom or dad in the
car can help you out with this one, buddy. Because
(25:06):
one hundred men were asked to name a sign you're
gonna give a date that shows you are definitely not interested.
What do you think? The top answer is, won'ts get
off of their phone?
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Do you have? Do you have tablet? Michael? You've got
a phone?
Speaker 5 (25:27):
You?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Does your mom or dad constantly have to tell you
to get off of your phone?
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Yeah, it's because you're not interested in listening to them.
And when you're doing that on a date, it's definitely
a bad sign, and that's why it's the top answer.
Ignoring your date is the top answer, Michael. Congrats, buddy. Yeah,
you're going to Hot Wheels of Monster Trucks Globe party
over at Van Andelerena next month. It's gonna be awesome.
I want you won last year too? Man? You are
(25:56):
you know what? This is perfect for you? Then? Did
you have a blast last year? Well, you're gonna do
it again this year? My friend and eleven years old?
Does that mean you're a fifth grader? This year sixth grader? Dang,
that's a big one, man. We'll have a great year. Okay,
oh thanks man. More chances to win coming next week
with Battle of the Sexes eight to fifteen. You're on
(26:16):
stallin oplop points. Good morning too. It's Mack and Schmidty,
and let's talk really quickly, schmitty about our favorite pastime
when we're not on the radio or in front of
our children or in front of our children. Good call,
mostly true.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
I try not to swear. I'm not always successful, but
I tried.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, we all are trying. Let's talk about swearing for
a second. Because they just put out this massive study
of the states that swear the most, and it was
based off of GEO tagged tweets. Schmidty.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
Yeah, they actually did this around the world and found
the US was the worst.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Does that surprise you?
Speaker 7 (26:52):
First?
Speaker 3 (26:52):
And Forema, we're very impatient people.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
One point seven million tweets were analyzed, and I was surprised. Though,
where would you feel like Michigan should come in on
this list?
Speaker 3 (27:01):
I think if you're talking when we're out driving, I
bet we're extremely profane.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
I would have thought that that would be true only
when we look at our car insurance bills. I mean
I think everybody, everybody's in chirch with there out of
the road. Michigan's top ten, yeah, top ten, number nine,
most sweary state in your head, though, if you thought
of a state, like if you just used all of
your stereotypes, all of your biases, Florida or Texas, thank you.
I knew it was gonna be Florida, honestly.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
And I'm looking through this and we're like kind of
weird because most of the Midwest is kind and hospitable,
like they're low on the list, and then it's like
you get to Michigan with our potholes, and we can't
keep our mouth shut.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Oddly enough too, oddly enough Smidty and Arbor. The city
in America that swears the third least any city in America,
Detroit probably the fourth most.
Speaker 3 (27:52):
And I got to tell you as soon as you
hit that four ninety six interchange right past Lancing, you
know what I'm talking about. You might not be able
to hear this, but you can see them.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Maybe we work things into everyday discussions more than I realize,
especially when our MIC's rap. I was talking to you
earlier and you're just you know, on telling me about
some you know, your favorite show right now.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
So watching the new volume four, I think it is
of unsolved mysteries, and besides the paranormal stuff, I am
super interested. Okay, all right, I see I did not
you guys, because you know what, being named Schmidty comes
close enough to an FCC violation. I am so careful
(28:32):
around microphones, whether they are on or of.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Some does that get a good feeling?
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Okay? So obviously we talk a lot about how the
Lions look on the field, but this time it's a
performance off the field for Lions running back Sioni Vaki.
It's no secret that generally new Lions players have to perform,
if you will, for coach Dan Campbell. And see how
he actually blew him away. This from yesterday's press conference.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
I don't know if it's the best performance, but as
far as the best voice that I've heard, probably it's
up there. Faki's voice is. The performance was in the voice.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
It was.
Speaker 5 (29:19):
It was pretty phenomenal, it really is. So maybe he'll
sing for you guys. Sometimes you need to ask him.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Well, ask and you shall receive. Waki was asked during
that press conference and delivered.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Shinte by the Shine and ohways, praise name, praise, on name,
praise un name to e.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
W.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
I'm just saying petition to get se only Vaki doing
the national anthem. He was incredible the way he looks
so nervous. The videos wonderful. West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
All right, Schmitty, a fall tradition is back. Of course,
that's going to incredible corn mazes and getting maybe lost
in some And I would suggest a specific soundtrack for
maybe the one you do at Robinett's this year. Schmitty.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Yeah, look's so good.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Let's do it Peanuts style, because Robinettes is celebrating the
seventy fifth anniversary of Peanuts, the classic Charles Schultz comic strip,
and so they have done up a six point four
acre corn maze Schmitty that is done entirely as Charlie Brown.
(30:41):
Like this looks so awesome from up above, Alan Robinette said,
it's a really exciting thing. We all love Charlie Brown,
and it's a great thing for families to come and
visit on the farm. This thing is pretty huge. It's
from the nineteen sixty six Halloween special Charlie Brown and
the Great Pumpkin. But you get to go through with
your family while enjoying Charlie Brown. There's all sorts of
(31:03):
facts and stuff in there too. I just thought this
was really cool. By the way, this is happening at
about seventy five corn mazes around the country, but here
in Michigan. Gold Meadows Farms near Richland and Uncle John
Cidermill in mid Michigan also doing Peanuts themes to celebrate
the seventy fifth.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Anniversary for Fine.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
I love that feeling good comes at you twice today.
I always want to tell you about great things going
on out there. We'll do it again for you on Monday.
Be here at six forty five in nine twenty every
weekday on Star one oh five point seven Mack and
Schmidy in the morning weekday starting at six am on
Star one oh five point seven
Wakem It gets my day going and makes me laugh.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
I love it. Mac and Schmitty in the Morning on
Star one O five point SEVENO. Good morning Smitty.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Oh it's a good one too. It's a Friday morning.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Welcome into your Friday. Thanks for sharing it with us,
Smack and Schmitty. As we're about to heat up a
little bit, go through a heat wave. I actually just
saw our friends from wood TV eight on there talking
about the weather and they had a humidity index. Yeah,
that did include the words oppressive, and we were moving
up towards oppressive on the humidity scale, which I thought
was pretty impressive.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Here's the deal. I'm just praying every single teacher next
week has ac in the classroom, because it's not done
just this weekend. We're in for a few days of
summer record heat. It feels so weird because I was
out last night and it was I mean, a nice
body and leggings weather, not even shorts, and I'm thinking,
this is so nice, this is so crisp. I'm literally
(00:59):
going to be wearing anything that tries to hide my
sweat for the next six days. But you know what,
if you wanted a little last sip of summer look
on the bright side.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
It's the celebrities goop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Well, he may be used to running the courtroom, but
now Judge matthis star Greg Mathis is headed to the
divorce courtroom. The iconic TV judge.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
In my courtroom. The disputes are real, the cases are real.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
It's time for hard decisions and tough love.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Yeah, the sixty four year old TV judge is going
to be divorcing wife Linda after almost forty years of
marriage Linda as the reason. They say irreconcilable differences as
the reason for the split, Linda listing their date of
separation as July seventeenth. Greg and Linda have two adult
(01:58):
daughters and two adult sons. Linda is asking for spousal
support in the filing, also moving to block the court's
ability to award Greg with spousal support.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Do you think he has a hard time not shouting,
but he's in the courtroom like on the other shout.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I just wonder if he comes in with a good
story like the plaintiffs and defendants always saying like, what
are you gonna tell us about? Greg, what kinds of
kind of dirty laundry will we see? Speaking of divorce, Obviously,
the not bombshall news about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez
does not mean Ben Affleck is getting back together with
ex wife Jennifer Garner. There have been reports surfacing, especially
(02:37):
over the last couple months, with how much time the
couple has spent together, that maybe they're rekindling their love.
Not the case. Source is very close with Jen say
she is still happily in a relationship with boyfriend John
Miller and nothing will be changing about that. Apparently she
worked very hard to try and help Ben with his
(02:57):
marriage to Jalo. We saw multiple times where she was
visiting with Lopez. Obviously they took family trips together, and
while Ben and Jen are doing an expert job at
cold parenting, that's it. And seeing them flying in a
private jet together earlier this week was just simply dropping
daughter Violet off at Yale.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
I mean, how full circle would that be? Though, SHWITTI
how ridiculous would it be?
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Do you want to do that? Though? No, you don't know.
If you're Ben Affleck. You just got done doing that
and it didn't go well.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Imagine how much stuff that he has monograph that says
Ben and Jen on it. I mean he's got three
relationships worth of that stuff, all right.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Finally, Drew Barrymore says she's going to try something new
when her talk show returns this fall. Take a step back,
maybe a little less handsy. The Drew Barrymore Show just
got picked up for a sixth season. She talked with
Entertainment Tonight about how excited she is and how she
gets that the handsy thing might not be great for everybody.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I'll try to practice physical distance, which is not my.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Never so hard that pandemic was for me.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I was alone in a studio by myself. Not everyone's favorite,
but I'm sorry to those people.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
It's interesting, though, She gives a little preview of what
we'll see these upcoming seasons.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Since I did ET when I was a kid, I
was very convinced that people want a collective experience, They
want community, they want to watch something and experience something together.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
We need this, We need the life affirming. We need
to feel and believe in the good.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Because it's there and I will spend every day finding it,
and by the way, it's needed for when it's not there.
Because that happens too, and life is the roller coaster.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
But what a lovely ride. I like her, So here's
the deal. Next month starts the fifth season. CBS is
greenlit a sixth, so she's good for a bit.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I'm sorry, I just couldn't take the piano in the
background during that thing. It was just too sad story
for me.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
All Right, all your celebscoop, But West Michigan StarTAC.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Apps some damn I get a good v Well, let's
dive into it. Welcome into your Friday morning. Hopefully you
were excited for a weekend here in West Michigan. We'll
kick things up in knots too. Feel like good?
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Right now?
Speaker 2 (05:10):
In Starmano found points seven, it's Mack and Schmidty, and
you don't feel like good. I've put a lot of
rescue stories I feel like in here, not many of
them involved this much chin.
Speaker 5 (05:18):
Though.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Earlier this week it was a California search and rescue
crew that was looking for a seventy eight year old hiker.
Now this guy, though, was an experienced climber. His name
was Kaisu Yang and he had gone missing on August seventeenth,
And it was two days later that this crew was
out there. He had been. They had been searching for
(05:38):
more than thirty hours at this point, but all of
a sudden, on the side of the mountain Schmitty, they
encountered Jay Leno. Oh, jay Leno just happened to be
at a ranch that was halfway up this mountain while
in the national park there, the Angeles National Park, and
he was getting ready to go out on one of
(06:00):
his very fancy car rides. But turns out jay Leno
did not know where the missing hiker was. Spoiler alert
right there. However, he did thank the volunteers profusely and
sent them on their way with some extra photos. And
maybe he was good luck because it was less than
a couple hours later they found the guy. They found
the guy right after running into Jay Leno. He's gonna
(06:22):
be okay. They did airlift him out there as a precaution,
but seventy eight years old was trying to sum it
a mountain there, so he's doing okay. These guys the
heroes of the situation, and they've got pictures with Jay
Leno in all of their geared too interesting rescue for sure.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Wouldn't this be such a dream for you? Baseball fans.
A lucky nine year old from New York got to
call an inning at the Mets game earlier this week.
Nine year old Kingston name Corn lives in Manhattan. He's
in fourth grade and lived out his Mets dream expertly
(06:58):
calling an inning alongside themed analysts Scary Cohen, Keith Hernandez
and Ron Darling. This is the fourth inning of the
Mets Orioles game.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
This is so good kixty. Fifth pitch of the day.
It is Schmack through the wall of a rack that'll.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Scorn Alan Joe and Alvarez pulled in a chicken with
an RBI single for Tyron Taylor.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
That's nally three nothing against the Baltimore.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Orioles on the boy, isn't he a fay thing?
Speaker 5 (07:26):
So?
Speaker 3 (07:26):
This is part of Sportsnet New York's annual kid Cast contest.
The video is everywhere with fans of just about every
MLB team in the country saying can we do this?
Speaker 2 (07:38):
This is so cool?
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Kingston said, I'm most excited by the play by play.
I think it's very exciting. I've been practicing for years.
Really sweet. I put this up on our stories if
you make sure to follow us on Instagram. At West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Star Man, that kid is too good. Lookout but natty.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
It's the Salle. Celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Ooh, this could get real messy. Nineties and two thousands
heart throb Joey Lawrence, part of the famed Lawrence Brothers,
facing a divorce that could get ugly. Joey's wife of
only two years, Samantha, just filed to divorce him, listing
June as their date of separation. But here's where it
(08:23):
gets a little interesting. Allegedly, Joey carried on an affair
with an actress he starred alongside in an upcoming movie.
And this is according to the actresses now estranged Ugby.
Actress Malina Elvaz's estranged husband, Edward Ryder, makes the adultery
accusations in new documents from their divorce he filed in
(08:44):
New Jersey. The timeline is very revealing. The documents say
that Molina's estranged husband claims he found out in late
March that Joey and Molina were hooking up. He makes
the allegation that a few weeks this happened just before
Joey's wife than filed to end their marriage. Joey and
Melina are accused of having this affair in California, which
(09:06):
is interesting because they start alongside each other in the
upcoming movie Socked In for Christmas, which is coming to Hallmark.
And apparently Molina has scrubbed her Instagram of any pictures
that she originally had up of her and Joey.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Oncept, I feel like it'd be wrong to answer with
anything other than WHOA Yes.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Speaking of divorce cases, Jennifer Lopez ain't wasted any time
asking a court to drop Affleck as her legal last name.
Who so here are some more details. Apparently, sources say
Jenny Ben have been trying to hash out a settlement
for months behind the scenes, with as little publicity as possible.
(09:52):
That's why she just a few days ago officially filed
documents of divorce. But while the sources say talks her continuing,
they become increasingly acrimonious. There are even points where Jen
and Ben are refusing to speak to each other at all,
so you can sense the bitterness here genfile docs checking
the box to have her legal name restored. So right
(10:14):
now she is Jennifer Lynn Affleck and now wants to
be Jennifer Lynn Lopez as soon as this sal gets
worked out.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yeah, Jenny from the block. Affleck didn't really have the
ring to it not working great.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Finally, Lions fans, are you ready for this? At least
according to Sports Illustrated, you're winning the Super Bowl. Their
football preview issue, which dropped yesterday, features players Jared Goff,
I'm and Ross Saint Brown and Penny Sewell, plus a
classic Cadillac convertible on the cover with the headline drive
(10:48):
to revive the resurgent Lions, Right team, right town, right time.
According to the writers, they say, I just think you
get a feel for some of these teams. You know,
how complete they look, how well coached they are. But
the Lions just seem to have every kind of biomarker
of a successful team. Look at the most complete team
(11:09):
in football right now. It's the Lions. And they're saying
super Bowl winner.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I mean, come on, schmitty, it is. You know we're
not talking about the same old Lions here anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Exfinitely, you want to hype it up. I'm very superstitious
about this. I would be It's like the cover of
NFL Madden and you don't want your team to be
on there.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Guys, it's fun news, but like, I.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Hope it's okay. All of your celeb Scoop I put
up that entire article as well. They had a lot
of good things to say about your lions. West Michigan
Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Good morning too, Happy Friday. It's Mac and Schmidty. And
you know often say looking at life through the eyes
of a child, I wish you could be amazed by
things like you can for a kid.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Learn so much. I got to do the coolest thing
last night. Finally. I talked about this on the show.
I took Will to the drive in guy, Where's to
see Twisters? At the Getty Drive in and Muskegan. It
was like magical as an understatement.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And last night was gorgeous.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
That is the coolest thing to do, first and foremost,
if you have kids and you've never gone to the Getty,
it is amazing. We decked out the truck bed, pillows, blankets,
perfect night. It was the coolest best seat, like, it
was just awesome, me and him. It was kind of
his end of summer treat. I was like, you know,
(12:30):
we're not I'm gonna bring your sister. This will just
be you and I. We got concessions. It was so cool.
He got to stay up late nights. We didn't roll
home till like midnight, and it was amazing. But as
we're sitting there, he's looking around and if you've ever
been out to Getty, they've got four screens out there
that are showing movies. So you've got this giant field
(12:50):
with like these poles that you park between. It's just
it's kind of like an old school driving, only you
don't have to take the speaker and hang it on
your car window anymore. And he's looking at me, and
he's trying to figure out what's happening here, because he
kept thinking we were going to a real theater because
just what five days ago he went to his first
ever movie in a theater when we went to see
Despicable Me four. So he's like, so it's gonna be
(13:12):
on that screen. I said yeah, and he goes, can
we sit outside? I go yeah, isn't that so cool?
He goes, but how does it work? How did they
get a TV out here? I go, well, like it's
with a projector. He's like, what's a projector, and I'm like,
I am too dumb to explain this, Like all of
(13:32):
this is so foreign to this six year old because
he's never seen old school technology like this. Yeah, and
then so the previews start and he kind of understands, like,
all right, I don't know how this works, but whatever,
this is like the coolest screen time I've ever gotten.
And then I go to turn the car battery on
so we can listen through the radio, and that, I mean,
that was like another ten minute conversation. He's like, well,
(13:52):
where's the sound coming from. I go, it comes through
the radio station. He goes, your radio station. I said no,
and I'm explaining, like it's you know, a short form frequency.
It's just here, you do it. He's like, but where's
the wire And I'm like, there's no wire. It's just
kind of like a like a blue tooth. He goes, oh,
so like it's coming from my tablet and I was
(14:13):
like no. And I'm sitting here thinking, all right, I'm
really losing the magic of this. And I can hear
there were probably like twelve fifteen other cars right around us,
and I can hear other people having this exact same
conversations with like they're teenagers and you just cannot figure
out how to explain technology to your kids that they've
(14:35):
never seen before. The same thing happened when we were
at the Henry Ford two weeks ago in Detroit.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
He saw an iMac from nineteen ninety seven.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
One of the big colorful ones, huge ones.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I think I think we got him in my school
when I was in like second grade. Yeah, and he
looks at me and he goes, Wow, what a weird
colorful TV. I was like, well, that's actually a computer,
and he goes, no, it's not.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I have you ever seen a computer?
Speaker 5 (14:57):
Mom?
Speaker 2 (14:58):
I think I know it if I saw a computer.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
It's kind of hard to realize generationally. I'm now at
the age we're just the things that I had and
the things I grew up with are going to be
so mind blowing to them.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
I think it's interesting too to look at it from
the perspective of when it's an older piece of technology.
Now you can also get that sense of amazement because
that's the stuff that they never seen. Like, my kids
are blown away by like old timey music boxes. You know,
they're like, oh, the needles, move on it. That's insane.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
They just set up our record player in the living
two weeks ago and I was like, don't touch it.
Then natle scratch, you know.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
And they don't know that mechanical typewriters. They're like, are
you like you would have to type every single word
on this.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
I don't think my kids have ever seen a typewriter
in real life. I don't think they'd even know what
that is.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
They just like the sound of it. We have like
an old one that doesn't work in the basement, and
the kids are like nineteen twenty four newspaper reporters down there,
like it's hot off the Bronts. I a scoop for you.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
When we were at that museum, I remember showing them
a laser disc and I was like, to be fair,
you guys, that technology never took off.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Key time with this spilling tea, Take time.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Spill the tea, Sweetheart, all right, Star one oh five
point seven. It's Mack and Schmidty. So every Friday we
talked drama, and this is your drama stuff that's going on,
and you're not quite sure how to handle it. This
is a hard one because it's like we've only been
back in school for some of West Michigan for days.
We've already got carpool problems. Got an email, we'll call
(16:25):
her Melanie. She said, I know you guys have been
talking about back to school all week. We started Tuesday,
and there's already drama. I am in a carpool with
two other neighbors. One, i'll admit, helicopter mom that decided
after one day she didn't trust the other mom in
our carpool. But she won't say anything. She just keeps
making weird excuses. Now the third mom is mouthing off
(16:47):
to me leave the carpool or tell the helicopter mom
to own it and speak up. I don't have time
or energy for carpool chaos.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Oh the good news is this is why they make
the bus people.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
But what everybody can bus like? We don't have bussing. Okay,
so we live so close to my son's elementary school,
we are not offer a bus route. So for a
lot of people, this is what you have to do.
Were you ever in a carpool?
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I was never in a carpool, not one that was
like consistently.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I did twelve years of carpooling, and let me tell
you it, it can be incredible, and like this, it
can be really really hard. Like we had some issues
where at one point we actually had to kindly tell
a family they could no longer carpool in our group
because their kids were like so out of control in
the car.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
That has to be so awkward to have that conversation
with some other pets. Like you don't even have that
room of like being a teacher or a principal, where
you have this authority. It's just some of the parents.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Maybe that's why I'm coming at this from a certain way.
Bail on this carpool, get out, get out, find find
some other neighbors, Melanie, or like, I know that it's
probably exceptionally stressful because I bet you start work way
before your kids have to be dropped off, And that's
why this is so helpful. But if you're with another
parent that can't have an adult conversation about problems they're
(18:03):
having and something as simple as a carpool, I do
not think you want to deal with this for an
entire sployer.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Can you just call out the helicopter mom and just
say to them, like, hey, if you want to take
your kid to school every day, do us a paper
and take ours too. Let's change this carpool. We get
all you helicopter mom.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
And what if this is your kid's best friend's mom. Yeah,
and suddenly she don't want to be around you anymore
and your child doesn't have that friend. It can get
so sketchy. I say, back it off and find another way.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
All right, Well what do you think we got this going?
On Facebook? Their opinions differ over there too. A's West
Michigan Star on this And of course each and every
week we'd like your drama spill it with this will
keep you anonymous tea time every Friday, hit us up.
That's West Michigan Star.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
Movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
It's the celebrity scoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Well, this was definitely a letdown for Beyond Say fans.
Last night marked the end of the DNC in Chicago,
and all day. All day, rumors had been flying that
Queen Bay was going to be a big surprise performer
as VP Harris accepted the Democratic Party's nomination to run
(19:17):
for president. I mean, out looks like TMZ. We're even
guaranteeing that she was going to be there. Last night,
and turns out no. The big surprise guest, none other
than Michigan Representative Alissa Slockin, took the stage. Okay, check
out John Stewart on The Daily Show. After this all
happened last.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
Night, speculation was running wild today there would be a
surprise guest.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Boy, did they deliver?
Speaker 7 (19:46):
Please welcome Michigan Representative Alissa Sluckin, Fredo, I am.
Speaker 6 (20:07):
In the slot, Tive, you thought there was Beyonce because
everybody thought that it was gonna be Beyonce coming out there.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
All yeah, Like half of the d NC was even
dressed in like cowboy Carter outfits. I mean everyone thought
Beyonce was gonna be there last night. Not in the case.
There had also been some rumor that Taylor Swift was
going to show up as well. She also did not
make it last night. One Superstar War surprise, though, was
Steph Curry, who recorded a video and sent it a lot,
(20:41):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Kind of an underwhelming hit right there when you built it.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Up to did we get to talk about someone in Michigan?
Speaker 2 (20:47):
I love it, which is great. I mean it would
have made sense. She could have been out there, She
could have came out Schmidty to like, yeah, all over
did not deliver.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
For the Internet, which had quite a few things to
say last night, This could be very exciting news. The
Kelsey brothers maybe making a few visits to the Mitton State.
Filings with the Treasuries, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade
Bureau show that founder's brewing company could become the brewer
for Garage Beer. This is a brand partially owned by
(21:24):
Jason and Travis Kelsey. I have to give a big
shout out to wood TV that literally wrote the headline
Taylor's boyfriend could be brewing in Michigan. Now, this is
still in the very very early stages. Garage Beer has
not announced anything yet. In fact, they tell Cranes the
partnership is still in the very early stages and they're
not in a place to comment too much. However, Andrew Sower,
(21:47):
who is co founder of Garage Beer, had nothing but
great things to say about founders, great respect for the business,
The quality and standards that they have for their products.
As a brewer is just unmatched. So could be exciting
things that maybe kind of like Mark Paul Goslier who
lives for founders and make stops there like all the time,
on the DL.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
I didn't know Zach Morris was into that Big.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Time loves Founders that maybe, I don't know, we could
see Jason and Travis maybe coming to Michigan to try
a few things out. And you know that they tend
to travel with the people they love, which I'm just
saying could lead to a Taylor visit.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
You know, you say something like that and all of
a sudden, Swifties are making a tent city outside of
Founders waiting to worship there.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
There's the worst places that Big Garden is pretty accommodating.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
True.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Finally, Channing Tatum admits, like any dad would, he is
not ready for his daughter, Everly, to watch his magic
mic performance. The actor was on SETH Meyers last night
talking about his new movie Blink twice when he brought
up the fact that him and his uh girlfriend not
fiance yet right Zoe Kravitz were at the latest Eras
Tour shows in London, and admits his dancing at the
(22:54):
Air's tour far different than what his daughter might eventually see.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
I'm so grateful that she doesn't know how I did.
When is that gonna it's gonna happen. It's going to happen,
and it's not gonna happen because you sure no, and
like it's going to be horrifying when it does.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
But but like you know, it's a lot of like
this stuff and like you know, I'm like, I'm gonna
keep it in that area. It's really it's going to
be like a reverse of like she's going to be
the parent the first time she sees Magic Mike.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
You're gonna come home and she's gonna like flip on
a lamp and be like we need to talk.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Oh my, Like it's Channing Tatum, but still weird that
that would be your dad.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Yeah, it's awkward for it. I mean, honestly, watching your
dad dance at any point in time in life is
awkward watching it be Channing Tatum and Magic Mike.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
Different level all of your celeb scoop a West Michigan
Star dot.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Com shot on a five point seven and let's fight
on this Friday morning in is battle of the sexiest
time and your opportunity to get out for an absolute
blast with the kiddos talking about hot wheels, monster trucks,
live below party. They just keep leveling it up with
each word that comes out of that sentence, I feel
like that.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Yeah, making its return to Van Handel September fourteenth and fifteenth.
Mark it down, put it in your phone, because we're
gonna manifest this win for you. One hundred men surveyed
what's your sign on a date to show you're not interested?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Sign on a date? Well, I left, went to the
bathroom and never returned. No, pretty, I mean it's a
direct cent worse direction.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
If you do that, do not be friends with me?
Speaker 5 (24:19):
Uh uh?
Speaker 3 (24:19):
That is not okay. At least give them half the bill.
That's the rudest you can be six one, six, four, five,
eight seven. One hundred men surveyed, what's your sign on
a date to show you're not interested? Caller seven? First
chance at the number one Anserday and you and the
fan ed to Monster Trucks, Live Hot Wheels, bring in
the glow party with Star win. Oh five point seven?
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Good morning star?
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Who's this?
Speaker 3 (24:46):
I'm sorry?
Speaker 2 (24:46):
What's your name? Michael? Michael? Where are you calling from today?
Man Calumba Zoo? How old are you? Michael? Eleven? So
I'm gonna I'm gonna go out on a limon say
you haven't gone out on very many dates in your
life yet. Well, hopefully your mom or dad in the
car can help you out with this one, buddy. Because
(25:06):
one hundred men were asked to name a sign you're
gonna give a date that shows you are definitely not interested.
What do you think? The top answer is, won'ts get
off of their phone?
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Do you have? Do you have tablet? Michael? You've got
a phone?
Speaker 5 (25:27):
You?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Does your mom or dad constantly have to tell you
to get off of your phone?
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Yeah, it's because you're not interested in listening to them.
And when you're doing that on a date, it's definitely
a bad sign, and that's why it's the top answer.
Ignoring your date is the top answer, Michael. Congrats, buddy. Yeah,
you're going to Hot Wheels of Monster Trucks Globe party
over at Van Andelerena next month. It's gonna be awesome.
I want you won last year too? Man? You are
(25:56):
you know what? This is perfect for you? Then? Did
you have a blast last year? Well, you're gonna do
it again this year? My friend and eleven years old?
Does that mean you're a fifth grader? This year sixth grader? Dang,
that's a big one, man. We'll have a great year. Okay,
oh thanks man. More chances to win coming next week
with Battle of the Sexes eight to fifteen. You're on
(26:16):
stallin oplop points. Good morning too. It's Mack and Schmidty,
and let's talk really quickly, schmitty about our favorite pastime
when we're not on the radio or in front of
our children or in front of our children. Good call,
mostly true.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
I try not to swear. I'm not always successful, but
I tried.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, we all are trying. Let's talk about swearing for
a second. Because they just put out this massive study
of the states that swear the most, and it was
based off of GEO tagged tweets. Schmidty.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
Yeah, they actually did this around the world and found
the US was the worst.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Does that surprise you?
Speaker 7 (26:52):
First?
Speaker 3 (26:52):
And Forema, we're very impatient people.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
One point seven million tweets were analyzed, and I was surprised. Though,
where would you feel like Michigan should come in on
this list?
Speaker 3 (27:01):
I think if you're talking when we're out driving, I
bet we're extremely profane.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
I would have thought that that would be true only
when we look at our car insurance bills. I mean
I think everybody, everybody's in chirch with there out of
the road. Michigan's top ten, yeah, top ten, number nine,
most sweary state in your head, though, if you thought
of a state, like if you just used all of
your stereotypes, all of your biases, Florida or Texas, thank you.
I knew it was gonna be Florida, honestly.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
And I'm looking through this and we're like kind of
weird because most of the Midwest is kind and hospitable,
like they're low on the list, and then it's like
you get to Michigan with our potholes, and we can't
keep our mouth shut.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Oddly enough too, oddly enough Smidty and Arbor. The city
in America that swears the third least any city in America,
Detroit probably the fourth most.
Speaker 3 (27:52):
And I got to tell you as soon as you
hit that four ninety six interchange right past Lancing, you
know what I'm talking about. You might not be able
to hear this, but you can see them.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Maybe we work things into everyday discussions more than I realize,
especially when our MIC's rap. I was talking to you
earlier and you're just you know, on telling me about
some you know, your favorite show right now.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
So watching the new volume four, I think it is
of unsolved mysteries, and besides the paranormal stuff, I am
super interested. Okay, all right, I see I did not
you guys, because you know what, being named Schmidty comes
close enough to an FCC violation. I am so careful
(28:32):
around microphones, whether they are on or of.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Some does that get a good feeling?
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Okay? So obviously we talk a lot about how the
Lions look on the field, but this time it's a
performance off the field for Lions running back Sioni Vaki.
It's no secret that generally new Lions players have to perform,
if you will, for coach Dan Campbell. And see how
he actually blew him away. This from yesterday's press conference.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
I don't know if it's the best performance, but as
far as the best voice that I've heard, probably it's
up there. Faki's voice is. The performance was in the voice.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
It was.
Speaker 5 (29:19):
It was pretty phenomenal, it really is. So maybe he'll
sing for you guys. Sometimes you need to ask him.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Well, ask and you shall receive. Waki was asked during
that press conference and delivered.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Shinte by the Shine and ohways, praise name, praise, on name,
praise un name to e.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
W.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
I'm just saying petition to get se only Vaki doing
the national anthem. He was incredible the way he looks
so nervous. The videos wonderful. West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
All right, Schmitty, a fall tradition is back. Of course,
that's going to incredible corn mazes and getting maybe lost
in some And I would suggest a specific soundtrack for
maybe the one you do at Robinett's this year. Schmitty.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Yeah, look's so good.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Let's do it Peanuts style, because Robinettes is celebrating the
seventy fifth anniversary of Peanuts, the classic Charles Schultz comic strip,
and so they have done up a six point four
acre corn maze Schmitty that is done entirely as Charlie Brown.
(30:41):
Like this looks so awesome from up above, Alan Robinette said,
it's a really exciting thing. We all love Charlie Brown,
and it's a great thing for families to come and
visit on the farm. This thing is pretty huge. It's
from the nineteen sixty six Halloween special Charlie Brown and
the Great Pumpkin. But you get to go through with
your family while enjoying Charlie Brown. There's all sorts of
(31:03):
facts and stuff in there too. I just thought this
was really cool. By the way, this is happening at
about seventy five corn mazes around the country, but here
in Michigan. Gold Meadows Farms near Richland and Uncle John
Cidermill in mid Michigan also doing Peanuts themes to celebrate
the seventy fifth.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Anniversary for Fine.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
I love that feeling good comes at you twice today.
I always want to tell you about great things going
on out there. We'll do it again for you on Monday.
Be here at six forty five in nine twenty every
weekday on Star one oh five point seven Mack and
Schmidy in the morning weekday starting at six am on
Star one oh five point seven
