Speaker 1 (00:12):
Good morning, Schmitting, good morning. Nice morning for us. As
matter of fact, at Tamp's in the low fifties out
there right now, but today back up into the upper
seventies with a whole bunch of eighty degree days on
deck for us too. So I think I'm gonna make
it a point to go to the lake shore and
jump in Lake Michigan. I think this weekend, Oh, I
feel like I'm running out of the chances to do it.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Maybe do it now. This weekend looks a little rainy,
but for the next few days it's gonna be great.
Because I know I'm a real PSL lover. But ooh,
I napped for a couple hours and the hammock yesterday,
and there might be just like a little bit of
summer left to me.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
I really enjoyed that well, And there's certainly some summer
baseball left to play. Did you see our West Michigan
White Caps getting the weird.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
They took it baby seventy two over the Lake County Captains,
which means this could be it. On Thursday, and move
them to the next round. It's best of three for
this first playoff round. We want you there LMCU Ballpark
Thursday night for Game two. It's gonna be so much
fun and we're gonna get you hooked up with Battle
(01:12):
of the Sexes, this.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Line, movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Well, this is not how you want to celebrate one
of your new movies. Premiering at the Toronto Film Festival,
A chill knight turned into chaos for actor James McAvoy.
You would know him from the X Men movies. Randomly
sucker punched in the back of a heck who, sources say,
the actor, who is in town for the premiere of
his directorial debut California Schemen, got the shock of his
(01:47):
life at a bar called Charlotte's Room. Some wasted guy
was being like tossed out by security, turned around and
just absolutely smashed him. McAvoy was so stunned, fell over. Thankfully,
he's okay. He was looked at by paramedics, no major
injuries and no arrests. Still, because they're trying to figure
(02:09):
out what even happened with this dude? So he showed
up the next night with the big premiere of the
movie and said, yeah, well this was quite a welcome
to Toronto, but here we are enjoy enjoy.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
The show, and we thought Canadians were friendly. What's going on?
I mean, Professor Xavier getting punched in the back eleven.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Fifty five pm, Like this wasn't even like nothing good
happens after one am kind of thing. It's still pretty
much the evening. Jalen Carter's spit is going to cost
him quite a bit of cash. So the very first
game of Week one of NFL coverage went down Thursday
night between the Eagles and the Cowboys. This was even
(02:48):
before the first snap.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Whoa loah, So Jalen Carter the focus and the star
for the Eagles on the front line out for the
game before snap.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You'll remember Jalen's spit on Dak Prescott. It was announced
yesterday fifty seven thousand dollars fine. Yeah, days after this
went down, the leagues that stated the fine will be
Carter's game check. Just so you know, he makes about
fifty seven thousand per game. Yep, yeah mine too. He
was also suspended for one game, but the league said
(03:32):
because Carter was disqualified before participating in a single play,
the suspension is considered to have already been served. Nothing
big from Carter. He had apologized, and he just said
listen second half and again we're going back out there
to focus on the season. What an expensive loogie, I know, yuh.
And finally, Modern Family star Eric stone Street officially off
(03:55):
the market, the actor tying the knot with his longtime
love Lindsey Schweitzer after a four year engagement. The fifty
four year old sharing some snaps from their Kansas City
Dream wedding on Instagram, including their first dance, which was
a serenade by a squad of acoustic guitarists. It's very
(04:17):
much if Cam was planning a wedding on Modern Family.
It's really really cool though. A bunch of the Modern
Family stars were there, including Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who said,
of all second marriages, this one is my favorite. I
love you both. I'm so happy for you.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
It's good that they can be amicable after the split.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Right, Yeah, I've got some pictures up for you with
your scoop at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Well, always here to find the positive out there and
bring it to your day. Star one to five point seven.
That's Mack and Schmitte with feeling good right now and
this is pretty wild Texas firefighters. Family has been waiting
a very long time for something. The Sherman family SCHMITTI
for more than three generations going back now, has been
nothing but boys. Michael Sherman has one brother who has
(05:01):
nothing but sons. He himself has one son. His father
was one of three brothers who only had sons, and
his father was one of two brothers who also only
had sons. There had not been a single girl born
into the Sherman family in one hundred and seventeen years
until this coming March. It looks like because Michael Sherman,
(05:23):
he's a lieutenant with the Montgomery Fire Department down there
in Texas, and his wife, Jaquia, told ABC News she
was absolutely shocked when she found out that in fact
their second child will be a girl. She told ABC News,
we didn't think it was quite possible for us to
even have a girl, So once she found out that
this was happening, before telling Michael, she took what was
(05:45):
going to be a private and small family gender reveal
and said, now I gotta turn this out big time.
Everybody's got to be here for this, the first girl
in over one hundred years. And ABC News was there
as everything went down, and both of them beyond surprised
and happy about this big news.
Speaker 6 (06:04):
And there hadn't been a girl morning to the family
in over one hundred years.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
So once I found out it was a girl, I
decided we no longer needed to have a small in
commission I needed to have I.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
Just needed everybody here.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
I'm wanted him to be very, very surprised.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
I just feel honored that, like, finally I'm the one
that we're the one that bringing the baby girl into
the world, finally after over one hundred years.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Yeah, the last female in the Sherman family was his
late great great aunt Aura Belle Sherman, who was very
active during the Civil rights movement. And so they're hoping
to honor this new baby girl and possibly name her
after all.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Right, there is a group of retirees in northern Michigan
who've got a really cool new look on life. They
call themselves the Men's Shed. That's right. These are all
retired men that show up for camaraderie and community service,
doing everything from building camp chairs to creating pieces for
the Old Town Playhouse, even doing work for their local
(07:03):
hospice house. They told nine to ten News, it's a
really cool way to meet a really cool group of guys.
Speaker 7 (07:09):
So I'm just looking for something to get involved with
in some place to go and guys to maybe interact
with and be a part of the community. And Fountain
this and showed up and it was just a great
bunch of guys doing a good community service projects.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
It feels good to, you know, be retired but also
be able to do projects. That's a great group of guys.
So we laugh and drop together and find my tape.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Did you have my tape right there in your feet?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
That's what happens when you get a little older than
at all.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
You can tell it is such a great group and
they're always looking to add to that group. So I'll
put the video up and maybe you know someone in
Northern Michigan that would love this. At West Michigan Star.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Movies, music and all the gossip.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
In one place, it's the celebrities goop on Star one
oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Wow, this is a really wild story and you may
not recognize the name David. He's a very popular singer.
Guaranteed your kids listen to his music. His tesla now
part of a police investigation after a body was found
inside the trunk at a Hollywood towyard. So this happened.
It started Monday late night. Officers responded to a call
(08:22):
at the towyard from reports of a foul odor coming
from the tesla. Copsay human remains were found in pieces
and heavily decomposed. The remains found in a bag inside
the car's trunk. Now, the Emmy is working this as
a homicide. They have come out with a report late
(08:45):
last night listing the gender of the victim as a
female five foot one, seventy one pounds. She has wavy
black hair and a tattoo on her right index finger
that just reads Shdavid was informed about this, and apparently
the tesla was abandoned in the Hollywood Hills for the
(09:05):
last few days. That's why it was towed to this
tow yard. David was on stage performing in Minneapolis last
night and is said to be cooperating with the investigation fully.
But this is really really insane.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yeah, you got to think if he had nothing to
do with it. He'll be very quick to be like,
you know who had my.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Car exactly and it was never reported stolen, which is
also a very very key part of this investigation.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
I wonder if the fact that it's a Tesla, which
I'm pretty sure has cameras around the outside of it
basically at all times. I wonder if there's some evidence
that could be pulled from that.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
I don't know. I'll keep you updated. Patrick Mahomes and
Travis Kelsey's new restaurant not just about good eats, but
good drinks, and we've got some tailor swift themes of course.
The fifteen eighty seven Prime Steakhouse, gearing up for its
grand opening next week in Kansas City, already had its
soft opening a couple of nights ago where you saw
all of the celebs showing up and the drinks will
(10:03):
be inspired by the famous couples. So first off is
Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City quarterback co owner of this
steakhouse with Travis. His signature drink is Showtime, a mix
of aged rum blended with coconut coarse, light syrup, lime
and soda. That was interesting. His wife, Brittany has the
Queen Bee. It is gray goose with wildflower, honey, lemon
(10:26):
and vanilla. Travis went with the gentleman's cut, bourbon and
bullet rye along with some bitters called the Big Yetti.
And what did our girl Taylor decide on the alchemy?
It's vodka and Pierre Farran dry kerra cow. It has aronia, berry, cranberry, strawberry,
(10:48):
lime and oolong.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Does it come with a vinyl nyl.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It's interesting. Grand opening slated for September seventeenth, happens to
be the day Mahomes turns the Big Threat. They also
have meals dedicated to players on the team and the
Big Red Burger in honor of coach Andy Reid. Finally,
I said it. We are so excited and when I
saw this news drop on Instagram, I audibly screamed. Hillary
(11:15):
Duff is coming out with new music. The former Disney
Channel star set to release new music for the first
time in over ten years. She shared the update on
her Instagram yesterday, uploading a bunch of photos in the
studio and said, I am working on a new EP.
She's even signed a new deal with Atlantic Records, So
(11:36):
no idea what this is gonna be like. She's really
really excited and has said that she's promising some big surprises,
including potential collaborations on this album that we're gonna love.
You cannot Every single person I know is so excited
about music coming from Hillary Duff. We asked her, look
(11:59):
guna beach sound track the Hills. You do not have
your early two thousands without Lizzie maguire. All right, all
of your celebscoop at West Michigan.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Start doc, it's Smack and Schmidty. And you said, unhinged pet.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Unhinged pets. Okay, we've got a new one in the house.
And understand we have two dogs, so we're like kind
of a normal family. But a spider found their way
into my four year old daughter's room about a week ago.
And generally my kids will freak out at spiders. They're
not huge fans. But I don't know. Something has very
(12:32):
much changed for Sophia because this is now a member
of our family. His name is Bob. He showed up
on her ceiling and he's been there just over a week.
She talks to Bob, she plays imaginary things with Bob.
She shows her stuffies to Bob. I will hear her
talking to Bob and it's it's this spider. And I
(12:57):
posted a picture of Bob. He's actually very good. Look
he's not very scared, like you know, typically you come
into a room with a spider in Michigan and they're
kind of like, well, you know, they're not really poisonous.
I'm not super concerned, not a jumper. But she comes
in like she comes home from school and she'll go
in a room and the first thing she says is, hi, Bob.
This thing is now a friend of hers. She's told
(13:17):
other friends about Bob. We had a few people over
yesterday after school. She brought them inside. There's Bob. Like
it's weird, but she's so excited about Bob. And Bob
is just this spider in her house.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
I hope it's a Bob and not a Barbara. And
you're about to have a whole bunch of little Bob's right.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
You don't even know how I would know. I hope
it's a Bob. So I posted this to my Facebook,
and I'm like, they're half. There have to be parents
with kids that have unhinged pets, and you guys showed
up so good. Kristen said. My daughter Briley has a
pet worm. She put it in the garden and she
sings it lallaby.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Appreciates. I can't find the ears on the word, but otherwise.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
My friend bridget Oh, my daughter Robin has a spider.
His name is Tom Tom Ashley. My daughter Maddy asked
for a tarantula for Christmas when she was three and
already had a name picked out. Cookie. We actually, Christina
have a pet jumping spider, and we bought her from
the pet store. This is not just something we found outside.
(14:19):
Her name is Pebble. They're very curious, very friendly spiders.
I've personally never been a fan, but Pebble is so
cute it's impossible not to love her.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
These are like when people will tell me, like, you
want a pet bunny and they're like, no, no, you competit
and stuff, and it's like, no, you can't. It does
not want you to do that.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
I know, but it's kind of wild because it's like
teaching her responsibility. She's reading, like she wants books on
like what spiders will eat, what they need, And I'm like, honestly, girl,
this this pet is perfect because you can just leave
it alone. I'm gonna eat the bugs we don't want.
It's just Bob's gonna hang out in his own world
and you can just stare from ground level.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
I love your little girl is brave enough to have
made friends with the spider and is welcome into her room.
My question for you becomes, when does it become too
comfortable for her? Are you gonna be cool with her
like having it run between her fingers as she walks
around the house and we're gonna go outside.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Worry, Bob's got his space. They seem to be great roommates.
Nobody's bothering anybody else.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
He doesn't know her.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
It's just Fee and Bob. So I posted. I posted
Bob on our Facebook wat West Michigan Star. I would
love to hear about your kid's unhinged pet.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Yeah. I've had minnows and I've had painted turtles. We've
had those a.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Little bit named the minnows.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Uh No, did not name the minnows. We did have
the turtle named slow Poke, and slow Poke I had
to literally guilt them into realizing that slow Poke's best
chance at living a full turtle life was to be
put back into our creek.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Pained turtles are cool. They are really cool six one six, four, five,
eight one oh five seven chime in, does your kid
have or had an unhinged pet? Did they go live
on a farm? Kev'th a call because you just had
enough of it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
We'd go out east that I'd be asked whether or
not we could put hermit crabs in our suitcase.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Everybody had hermit crabs in the nineties. Oh my gosh.
I'm actually totally proud of my parenting because my kids
are very open about all of their things, and that
includes bodily functions. I figure I just need to apologize
to some of my neighbors. Last week, we had that perfect,
perfect rainy afternoon and I was attempting to take a
(16:34):
very relaxing video of like the sounds and the breeze
coming in the slow slide into fall and posted up
on my Facebook and my Instagram, and instead I caught
my son in the background, out in the rain, drenched
saying if I peed my pants right now, you couldn't
even tell the parenting I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
The best part about that is that it's entirely true.
Genius see these.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
It's the celebrities group on Star one oh five point seven. Well.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
One of the rumored places for the big Taylor Swift
Travis Kelcey wedding to go down is one of her homes,
a mansion in Rhode Island, and locals, along with politicians alike,
very eager to host the nuptials. Rhode Island State Representative
Brian Patrick Kennedy is on an absolute campaign to get
(17:30):
Taylor to host her wedding there. He said, this would
be fantastic. The wedding would be great for our state's economy.
Tay and Travis's celeb friends would likely flock to the
area and spend big bucks in our local economy, restaurants,
small business. This would be fantastic. He has talked in
(17:50):
multiple interviews saying it would be awesome if she highlighted
some local dishes. He's suggested menus and restaurants that would
be fantastic, the best Rhode Island clam chowder that could
be part of her reception dinner. It's hilarious, and he said,
while he's never officially spoken or even met Taylor, she
(18:12):
is a great neighbor who regularly pays her property taxes.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
You're trying too hard, bro, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
I love it. What you gotta do right. You're here
for the people. You got to get this woman to
spend her money with the people.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Now.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
A wild day on Capitol Hill yesterday during a congressional
hearing on YOUAP. That's what we now call UFO's unidentified
anomalist phenomena. I saw this video being posted everywhere. So
Missouri Congressman Eric Burlison dropped the footage yesterday showing an
MQ nine Reaper tailing a very mysterious orb over the
(18:51):
coast of Yemen back in October of last year. The
drone actually got the green light to fire, fired a
missile that literally bounced off whatever this thing is, and
then the thing zipped away at an unfathomable speed, completely unharmed.
So Burlison has been a big time advocate for government
(19:13):
transparency on these UAPs, and he says this new footage
came straight from whistleblowers. It is a bombshell. As part
of these hearings, three Navy and Air Force veterans also
testified testified under oath yesterday they have seen UAPs with
their own eyes and they are accusing the US of
(19:34):
running a full blown cover up on this stuff. Smitty,
it is a creepy video.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
All I kept thinking is, yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Everybody did. But it is a creepy video. Doesn't have
any sounds.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
But by the way, the X File premiered on this
very day back in nineteen mayence, I don't think so. No.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
I think we just got aliens everywhere and they're trying
to let us know it's all fine. Actor Killian Murphy
of Peaky Blinders and Oppenheimer fame is being praised for
coming up with a new term. It's not fomo, it's romo.
He was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert talking
about how he is actually not in the new Odyssey movie,
(20:18):
even though so many of Christopher Nolan's cast from his
past movies are, and he explained he's happy about that.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
But what I what I should clarify this.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
What I meant to say was that it's a real
gift to go and see Chris's films and watch them
without having the terrible burden of looking at my own
stupid head.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
So instead of fear of missing out, you have relief
of missing out.
Speaker 7 (20:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, So.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
So everyone will be using Romo from here on out
the relief of missing out.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
I'm bummed because I love him as an actor and
anything with Christopher Nolan behind the you know, behind the cameras. Oh,
we've got the.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Peaky Blinders movie. So I'm really excited that all of
your celeb scoop at West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Seven to five point seven. It's Mac and Schmiddy looking
to get you into playoff baseball. Taking Game one last night,

their air pods in. Have you noticed that? It's like

So are you let's see here, are you eleven or twelve?
I'm t you're twelve. My daughter is also twelve, but
I think she rolls her eyes at least at a
seventeen year old level. Would you say you're probably about
the same. Oh maybe, I bet your mom would say
you're about the same. Roll their eyes is the top
answer way to go to. Yes, it was roll their eyes,
(23:03):
followed by yell. Then the of course, very the very
sarcastic sigh comes in at number three. A frown is
number four. But June, you have got yourself four tickets.
You're bringing the family to go check out the white
Caps and playoff action tomorrow night. Congra hats, Oh good
(23:23):
morning to here. It's back in Schmitty, and I want
to talk to my pet owners, like yourself, Schmitty. What
is it in your house or that you have that
your pets just love to destroy. Yeah, they just can't
get over this very specific thing that they just always
go back to. It's their kryptonite, if you will. Because
I think I've discovered what my newest pet are Puppy
(23:46):
Juno's favorite thing is, and it is any snapback on
the back of my baseball.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Hats, which really ruins the hat.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
They're so I posted this picture up on our Facebook
at West Michigan Star of three of her latest victims
that all went at the same time. Because guys who
have a bunch of hats, you know, sometimes you stack
them right, like you put them in a pile that
they just sit on top of each other. Well, I
had these three actually all hanging together on the back
of my bathroom door. And most of the time she's
(24:15):
not even allowed in my bedroom except at night when
we're going to sleep.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
And she can reach that.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
She can not only reach at Schmitty. She got them
all down and destroyed all three of them. And the
amount of time it took my wife to take a shower.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
That's expensive.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
H three heads are gone. That now makes eight of
my baseball caps all destroyed in just three months. Now.
Schmitty in every single one of them. It's just the
snap back. That's all she wants to down. She just
wants to I would think like maybe you'd want my
like stinky sweat or whatever on the side or anything else,
(24:48):
like uh huh, No, I just want to eat the
plastic until it's all gone. Like she'll swallow it even
it's bad.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
And that's where you've got to be really careful. So
we're we've lucked out. Our dogs really have never had
anything destructive. They've been great even as puppies. But Here's
where I will warn you. My sister in law has
such a cute pop who really loves undies, but a
very specific thong kind of undy. Well, and two weeks ago,
(25:14):
seventy five hundred dollars later, what yeah, so.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I will get sure what's it made of?
Speaker 3 (25:21):
It gets spun gold, it gets wrapped around their organs.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
Oh my, Oh so because the surgery.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Forgery at the vet, so I put your hats up
a lot higher.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, seventy they had, thankfully, but yep, over over in
Detroy with seventy five hundred dollars for our lovely little
chip to have a little surgery to get unmentionables out
of his digestive.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
You're not song back, yeah, feeling.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
I wanted to kind of give you guys an idea
of just how cool some members of my family are.
And this is a very very uper story. So those
of you who are from failiar with the county fairs
and four h and raising your animals to show this
is really cool. So last week was the Chippewa County
Fair up in the up which is where a ton
of Chris's family lives, and our niece Mara had her
(26:14):
first year showing a pig and her beloved goat, Linus. Well,
for those of you unaware, like my city girl self,
when it comes time to show and someone buys your animals,
usually it's for food. Marra fell in love with her goat.
We heard all about him all summer. She was with
(26:34):
him every single day, training him, feeding him, taking him
for walks, getting him ready. So when it's tame time
for her to show him and sell him, she was
super due for emotional and without having any idea, Chris's
whole family pitched in and bought Linus. So now Chris's
(26:55):
grandma's farm up on the eastern end of the up
has two new goats. Actually, Linus and Dorothy both went
home together and they are now being introduced to the
cows and the new chickens that we have, and the
pictures are just so sweet. She started sobbing, started sobbing
when a bunch of the uncles and cousins stepped up
(27:16):
and bought her goats for her.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Did somebody buy the pig just out of curiosity?
Speaker 3 (27:19):
A business?
Speaker 1 (27:20):
A business bought the pig?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, yeah, I guess we'll call it this really so,
but I just thought that was the sweetest, sweetest thing.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
That is really cool of them to have done all right.
As a skateboarder myself, I would never dream in a
million years of trying to go a long distance on
a board. It is not a fun time to try
and do that. Brooke Johnson, though twenty nine year old,
felt a little bit differently and she just completed an
historic first. She has become the first woman in US
(27:53):
history to traverse the country on a skateboard three thousand,
two hundred and twenty six mile journey from Santa Monica, California,
to Virginia Beach in one hundred and nineteen days. She
spent out on the road and documenting the course the
whole thing. This was her as she finally left in Calli.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
We are heading out on the road.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
This was for Roger and everyone who has a spinal
cord injury.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
This one is for Roger and everyone who has a
spinal cord injury. The reason she said that was because
she was inspired to do this by her late stepfather, Roger,
who actually passed away after an accident left him as
a quadriplegic and a spinal cord injury. He passed away
about a year later, and he was the one who
actually encouraged Brooke to take this on and was a
(28:43):
source of inspiration the entire time.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
That was like, Roger's a really big country and he
looked at me and he goes, oh, you could do it.
He's like supported me through this whole thing of Roger
left me purpose and for that I thank him every
single day.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Yeah, And when she crossed that finish line in Virginia,
she jumped into the Atlantic with Rogers ashes contained in
a necklace around her neck and raised fifty thousand dollars
for spinal cord research through Wings of Life. Doing this
incredible journey but pretty wild over thirty two hundred miles
(29:19):
on a skateboard, but yeah, unbelievable. Feeling good coming at
you a couple times today. Always want to share amazing
stories with you. We'll do it again for you tomorrow,
six forty five and nine twenty here on Star Mack
Speaker 2 (29:28):
And Schmidty in the morning weekday, starting at six am
on Star one oh five point seven
Wakem It gets my day going and makes.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Me lab it MC and Schmidty in the morning on
Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Good morning, Schmitting, good morning. Nice morning for us. As
matter of fact, at Tamp's in the low fifties out
there right now, but today back up into the upper
seventies with a whole bunch of eighty degree days on
deck for us too. So I think I'm gonna make
it a point to go to the lake shore and
jump in Lake Michigan. I think this weekend, Oh, I
feel like I'm running out of the chances to do it.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Maybe do it now. This weekend looks a little rainy,
but for the next few days it's gonna be great.
Because I know I'm a real PSL lover. But ooh,
I napped for a couple hours and the hammock yesterday,
and there might be just like a little bit of
summer left to me.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
I really enjoyed that well, And there's certainly some summer
baseball left to play. Did you see our West Michigan
White Caps getting the weird.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
They took it baby seventy two over the Lake County Captains,
which means this could be it. On Thursday, and move
them to the next round. It's best of three for
this first playoff round. We want you there LMCU Ballpark
Thursday night for Game two. It's gonna be so much
fun and we're gonna get you hooked up with Battle
(01:12):
of the Sexes, this.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Line, movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Well, this is not how you want to celebrate one
of your new movies. Premiering at the Toronto Film Festival,
A chill knight turned into chaos for actor James McAvoy.
You would know him from the X Men movies. Randomly
sucker punched in the back of a heck who, sources say,
the actor, who is in town for the premiere of
his directorial debut California Schemen, got the shock of his
(01:47):
life at a bar called Charlotte's Room. Some wasted guy
was being like tossed out by security, turned around and
just absolutely smashed him. McAvoy was so stunned, fell over. Thankfully,
he's okay. He was looked at by paramedics, no major
injuries and no arrests. Still, because they're trying to figure
(02:09):
out what even happened with this dude? So he showed
up the next night with the big premiere of the
movie and said, yeah, well this was quite a welcome
to Toronto, but here we are enjoy enjoy.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
The show, and we thought Canadians were friendly. What's going on?
I mean, Professor Xavier getting punched in the back eleven.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Fifty five pm, Like this wasn't even like nothing good
happens after one am kind of thing. It's still pretty
much the evening. Jalen Carter's spit is going to cost
him quite a bit of cash. So the very first
game of Week one of NFL coverage went down Thursday
night between the Eagles and the Cowboys. This was even
(02:48):
before the first snap.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Whoa loah, So Jalen Carter the focus and the star
for the Eagles on the front line out for the
game before snap.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You'll remember Jalen's spit on Dak Prescott. It was announced
yesterday fifty seven thousand dollars fine. Yeah, days after this
went down, the leagues that stated the fine will be
Carter's game check. Just so you know, he makes about
fifty seven thousand per game. Yep, yeah mine too. He
was also suspended for one game, but the league said
(03:32):
because Carter was disqualified before participating in a single play,
the suspension is considered to have already been served. Nothing
big from Carter. He had apologized, and he just said
listen second half and again we're going back out there
to focus on the season. What an expensive loogie, I know, yuh.
And finally, Modern Family star Eric stone Street officially off
(03:55):
the market, the actor tying the knot with his longtime
love Lindsey Schweitzer after a four year engagement. The fifty
four year old sharing some snaps from their Kansas City
Dream wedding on Instagram, including their first dance, which was
a serenade by a squad of acoustic guitarists. It's very
(04:17):
much if Cam was planning a wedding on Modern Family.
It's really really cool though. A bunch of the Modern
Family stars were there, including Jesse Tyler Ferguson, who said,
of all second marriages, this one is my favorite. I
love you both. I'm so happy for you.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
It's good that they can be amicable after the split.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Right, Yeah, I've got some pictures up for you with
your scoop at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Well, always here to find the positive out there and
bring it to your day. Star one to five point seven.
That's Mack and Schmitte with feeling good right now and
this is pretty wild Texas firefighters. Family has been waiting
a very long time for something. The Sherman family SCHMITTI
for more than three generations going back now, has been
nothing but boys. Michael Sherman has one brother who has
(05:01):
nothing but sons. He himself has one son. His father
was one of three brothers who only had sons, and
his father was one of two brothers who also only
had sons. There had not been a single girl born
into the Sherman family in one hundred and seventeen years
until this coming March. It looks like because Michael Sherman,
(05:23):
he's a lieutenant with the Montgomery Fire Department down there
in Texas, and his wife, Jaquia, told ABC News she
was absolutely shocked when she found out that in fact
their second child will be a girl. She told ABC News,
we didn't think it was quite possible for us to
even have a girl, So once she found out that
this was happening, before telling Michael, she took what was
(05:45):
going to be a private and small family gender reveal
and said, now I gotta turn this out big time.
Everybody's got to be here for this, the first girl
in over one hundred years. And ABC News was there
as everything went down, and both of them beyond surprised
and happy about this big news.
Speaker 6 (06:04):
And there hadn't been a girl morning to the family
in over one hundred years.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
So once I found out it was a girl, I
decided we no longer needed to have a small in
commission I needed to have I.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
Just needed everybody here.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
I'm wanted him to be very, very surprised.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
I just feel honored that, like, finally I'm the one
that we're the one that bringing the baby girl into
the world, finally after over one hundred years.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Yeah, the last female in the Sherman family was his
late great great aunt Aura Belle Sherman, who was very
active during the Civil rights movement. And so they're hoping
to honor this new baby girl and possibly name her
after all.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Right, there is a group of retirees in northern Michigan
who've got a really cool new look on life. They
call themselves the Men's Shed. That's right. These are all
retired men that show up for camaraderie and community service,
doing everything from building camp chairs to creating pieces for
the Old Town Playhouse, even doing work for their local
(07:03):
hospice house. They told nine to ten News, it's a
really cool way to meet a really cool group of guys.
Speaker 7 (07:09):
So I'm just looking for something to get involved with
in some place to go and guys to maybe interact
with and be a part of the community. And Fountain
this and showed up and it was just a great
bunch of guys doing a good community service projects.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
It feels good to, you know, be retired but also
be able to do projects. That's a great group of guys.
So we laugh and drop together and find my tape.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Did you have my tape right there in your feet?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
That's what happens when you get a little older than
at all.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
You can tell it is such a great group and
they're always looking to add to that group. So I'll
put the video up and maybe you know someone in
Northern Michigan that would love this. At West Michigan Star.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Movies, music and all the gossip.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
In one place, it's the celebrities goop on Star one
oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Wow, this is a really wild story and you may
not recognize the name David. He's a very popular singer.
Guaranteed your kids listen to his music. His tesla now
part of a police investigation after a body was found
inside the trunk at a Hollywood towyard. So this happened.
It started Monday late night. Officers responded to a call
(08:22):
at the towyard from reports of a foul odor coming
from the tesla. Copsay human remains were found in pieces
and heavily decomposed. The remains found in a bag inside
the car's trunk. Now, the Emmy is working this as
a homicide. They have come out with a report late
(08:45):
last night listing the gender of the victim as a
female five foot one, seventy one pounds. She has wavy
black hair and a tattoo on her right index finger
that just reads Shdavid was informed about this, and apparently
the tesla was abandoned in the Hollywood Hills for the
(09:05):
last few days. That's why it was towed to this
tow yard. David was on stage performing in Minneapolis last
night and is said to be cooperating with the investigation fully.
But this is really really insane.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yeah, you got to think if he had nothing to
do with it. He'll be very quick to be like,
you know who had my.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Car exactly and it was never reported stolen, which is
also a very very key part of this investigation.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
I wonder if the fact that it's a Tesla, which
I'm pretty sure has cameras around the outside of it
basically at all times. I wonder if there's some evidence
that could be pulled from that.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
I don't know. I'll keep you updated. Patrick Mahomes and
Travis Kelsey's new restaurant not just about good eats, but
good drinks, and we've got some tailor swift themes of course.
The fifteen eighty seven Prime Steakhouse, gearing up for its
grand opening next week in Kansas City, already had its
soft opening a couple of nights ago where you saw
all of the celebs showing up and the drinks will
(10:03):
be inspired by the famous couples. So first off is
Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City quarterback co owner of this
steakhouse with Travis. His signature drink is Showtime, a mix
of aged rum blended with coconut coarse, light syrup, lime
and soda. That was interesting. His wife, Brittany has the
Queen Bee. It is gray goose with wildflower, honey, lemon
(10:26):
and vanilla. Travis went with the gentleman's cut, bourbon and
bullet rye along with some bitters called the Big Yetti.
And what did our girl Taylor decide on the alchemy?
It's vodka and Pierre Farran dry kerra cow. It has aronia, berry, cranberry, strawberry,
(10:48):
lime and oolong.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Does it come with a vinyl nyl.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It's interesting. Grand opening slated for September seventeenth, happens to
be the day Mahomes turns the Big Threat. They also
have meals dedicated to players on the team and the
Big Red Burger in honor of coach Andy Reid. Finally,
I said it. We are so excited and when I
saw this news drop on Instagram, I audibly screamed. Hillary
(11:15):
Duff is coming out with new music. The former Disney
Channel star set to release new music for the first
time in over ten years. She shared the update on
her Instagram yesterday, uploading a bunch of photos in the
studio and said, I am working on a new EP.
She's even signed a new deal with Atlantic Records, So
(11:36):
no idea what this is gonna be like. She's really
really excited and has said that she's promising some big surprises,
including potential collaborations on this album that we're gonna love.
You cannot Every single person I know is so excited
about music coming from Hillary Duff. We asked her, look
(11:59):
guna beach sound track the Hills. You do not have
your early two thousands without Lizzie maguire. All right, all
of your celebscoop at West Michigan.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Start doc, it's Smack and Schmidty. And you said, unhinged pet.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Unhinged pets. Okay, we've got a new one in the house.
And understand we have two dogs, so we're like kind
of a normal family. But a spider found their way
into my four year old daughter's room about a week ago.
And generally my kids will freak out at spiders. They're
not huge fans. But I don't know. Something has very
(12:32):
much changed for Sophia because this is now a member
of our family. His name is Bob. He showed up
on her ceiling and he's been there just over a week.
She talks to Bob, she plays imaginary things with Bob.
She shows her stuffies to Bob. I will hear her
talking to Bob and it's it's this spider. And I
(12:57):
posted a picture of Bob. He's actually very good. Look
he's not very scared, like you know, typically you come
into a room with a spider in Michigan and they're
kind of like, well, you know, they're not really poisonous.
I'm not super concerned, not a jumper. But she comes
in like she comes home from school and she'll go
in a room and the first thing she says is, hi, Bob.
This thing is now a friend of hers. She's told
(13:17):
other friends about Bob. We had a few people over
yesterday after school. She brought them inside. There's Bob. Like
it's weird, but she's so excited about Bob. And Bob
is just this spider in her house.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
I hope it's a Bob and not a Barbara. And
you're about to have a whole bunch of little Bob's right.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
You don't even know how I would know. I hope
it's a Bob. So I posted this to my Facebook,
and I'm like, they're half. There have to be parents
with kids that have unhinged pets, and you guys showed
up so good. Kristen said. My daughter Briley has a
pet worm. She put it in the garden and she
sings it lallaby.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Appreciates. I can't find the ears on the word, but otherwise.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
My friend bridget Oh, my daughter Robin has a spider.
His name is Tom Tom Ashley. My daughter Maddy asked
for a tarantula for Christmas when she was three and
already had a name picked out. Cookie. We actually, Christina
have a pet jumping spider, and we bought her from
the pet store. This is not just something we found outside.
(14:19):
Her name is Pebble. They're very curious, very friendly spiders.
I've personally never been a fan, but Pebble is so
cute it's impossible not to love her.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
These are like when people will tell me, like, you
want a pet bunny and they're like, no, no, you competit
and stuff, and it's like, no, you can't. It does
not want you to do that.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
I know, but it's kind of wild because it's like
teaching her responsibility. She's reading, like she wants books on
like what spiders will eat, what they need, And I'm like, honestly, girl,
this this pet is perfect because you can just leave
it alone. I'm gonna eat the bugs we don't want.
It's just Bob's gonna hang out in his own world
and you can just stare from ground level.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
I love your little girl is brave enough to have
made friends with the spider and is welcome into her room.
My question for you becomes, when does it become too
comfortable for her? Are you gonna be cool with her
like having it run between her fingers as she walks
around the house and we're gonna go outside.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Worry, Bob's got his space. They seem to be great roommates.
Nobody's bothering anybody else.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
He doesn't know her.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
It's just Fee and Bob. So I posted. I posted
Bob on our Facebook wat West Michigan Star. I would
love to hear about your kid's unhinged pet.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Yeah. I've had minnows and I've had painted turtles. We've
had those a.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Little bit named the minnows.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Uh No, did not name the minnows. We did have
the turtle named slow Poke, and slow Poke I had
to literally guilt them into realizing that slow Poke's best
chance at living a full turtle life was to be
put back into our creek.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
Pained turtles are cool. They are really cool six one six, four, five,
eight one oh five seven chime in, does your kid
have or had an unhinged pet? Did they go live
on a farm? Kev'th a call because you just had
enough of it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
We'd go out east that I'd be asked whether or
not we could put hermit crabs in our suitcase.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
Everybody had hermit crabs in the nineties. Oh my gosh.
I'm actually totally proud of my parenting because my kids
are very open about all of their things, and that
includes bodily functions. I figure I just need to apologize
to some of my neighbors. Last week, we had that perfect,
perfect rainy afternoon and I was attempting to take a
(16:34):
very relaxing video of like the sounds and the breeze
coming in the slow slide into fall and posted up
on my Facebook and my Instagram, and instead I caught
my son in the background, out in the rain, drenched
saying if I peed my pants right now, you couldn't
even tell the parenting I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
The best part about that is that it's entirely true.
Genius see these.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (17:04):
It's the celebrities group on Star one oh five point seven. Well.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
One of the rumored places for the big Taylor Swift
Travis Kelcey wedding to go down is one of her homes,
a mansion in Rhode Island, and locals, along with politicians alike,
very eager to host the nuptials. Rhode Island State Representative
Brian Patrick Kennedy is on an absolute campaign to get
(17:30):
Taylor to host her wedding there. He said, this would
be fantastic. The wedding would be great for our state's economy.
Tay and Travis's celeb friends would likely flock to the
area and spend big bucks in our local economy, restaurants,
small business. This would be fantastic. He has talked in
(17:50):
multiple interviews saying it would be awesome if she highlighted
some local dishes. He's suggested menus and restaurants that would
be fantastic, the best Rhode Island clam chowder that could
be part of her reception dinner. It's hilarious, and he said,
while he's never officially spoken or even met Taylor, she
(18:12):
is a great neighbor who regularly pays her property taxes.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
You're trying too hard, bro, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
I love it. What you gotta do right. You're here
for the people. You got to get this woman to
spend her money with the people.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Now.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
A wild day on Capitol Hill yesterday during a congressional
hearing on YOUAP. That's what we now call UFO's unidentified
anomalist phenomena. I saw this video being posted everywhere. So
Missouri Congressman Eric Burlison dropped the footage yesterday showing an
MQ nine Reaper tailing a very mysterious orb over the
(18:51):
coast of Yemen back in October of last year. The
drone actually got the green light to fire, fired a
missile that literally bounced off whatever this thing is, and
then the thing zipped away at an unfathomable speed, completely unharmed.
So Burlison has been a big time advocate for government
(19:13):
transparency on these UAPs, and he says this new footage
came straight from whistleblowers. It is a bombshell. As part
of these hearings, three Navy and Air Force veterans also
testified testified under oath yesterday they have seen UAPs with
their own eyes and they are accusing the US of
(19:34):
running a full blown cover up on this stuff. Smitty,
it is a creepy video.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
All I kept thinking is, yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
Everybody did. But it is a creepy video. Doesn't have
any sounds.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
But by the way, the X File premiered on this
very day back in nineteen mayence, I don't think so. No.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
I think we just got aliens everywhere and they're trying
to let us know it's all fine. Actor Killian Murphy
of Peaky Blinders and Oppenheimer fame is being praised for
coming up with a new term. It's not fomo, it's romo.
He was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert talking
about how he is actually not in the new Odyssey movie,
(20:18):
even though so many of Christopher Nolan's cast from his
past movies are, and he explained he's happy about that.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
But what I what I should clarify this.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
What I meant to say was that it's a real
gift to go and see Chris's films and watch them
without having the terrible burden of looking at my own
stupid head.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
So instead of fear of missing out, you have relief
of missing out.
Speaker 7 (20:43):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, So.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
So everyone will be using Romo from here on out
the relief of missing out.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
I'm bummed because I love him as an actor and
anything with Christopher Nolan behind the you know, behind the cameras. Oh,
we've got the.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Peaky Blinders movie. So I'm really excited that all of
your celeb scoop at West Michigan Star dot Com.

So are you let's see here, are you eleven or twelve?
I'm t you're twelve. My daughter is also twelve, but
I think she rolls her eyes at least at a
seventeen year old level. Would you say you're probably about
the same. Oh maybe, I bet your mom would say
you're about the same. Roll their eyes is the top
answer way to go to. Yes, it was roll their eyes,
(23:03):
followed by yell. Then the of course, very the very
sarcastic sigh comes in at number three. A frown is
number four. But June, you have got yourself four tickets.
You're bringing the family to go check out the white
Caps and playoff action tomorrow night. Congra hats, Oh good
(23:23):
morning to here. It's back in Schmitty, and I want
to talk to my pet owners, like yourself, Schmitty. What
is it in your house or that you have that
your pets just love to destroy. Yeah, they just can't
get over this very specific thing that they just always
go back to. It's their kryptonite, if you will. Because
I think I've discovered what my newest pet are Puppy
(23:46):
Juno's favorite thing is, and it is any snapback on
the back of my baseball.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Hats, which really ruins the hat.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
They're so I posted this picture up on our Facebook
at West Michigan Star of three of her latest victims
that all went at the same time. Because guys who
have a bunch of hats, you know, sometimes you stack
them right, like you put them in a pile that
they just sit on top of each other. Well, I
had these three actually all hanging together on the back
of my bathroom door. And most of the time she's
(24:15):
not even allowed in my bedroom except at night when
we're going to sleep.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
And she can reach that.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
She can not only reach at Schmitty. She got them
all down and destroyed all three of them. And the
amount of time it took my wife to take a shower.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
That's expensive.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
H three heads are gone. That now makes eight of
my baseball caps all destroyed in just three months. Now.
Schmitty in every single one of them. It's just the
snap back. That's all she wants to down. She just
wants to I would think like maybe you'd want my
like stinky sweat or whatever on the side or anything else,
(24:48):
like uh huh, No, I just want to eat the
plastic until it's all gone. Like she'll swallow it even
it's bad.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
And that's where you've got to be really careful. So
we're we've lucked out. Our dogs really have never had
anything destructive. They've been great even as puppies. But Here's
where I will warn you. My sister in law has
such a cute pop who really loves undies, but a
very specific thong kind of undy. Well, and two weeks ago,
(25:14):
seventy five hundred dollars later, what yeah, so.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I will get sure what's it made of?
Speaker 3 (25:21):
It gets spun gold, it gets wrapped around their organs.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
Oh my, Oh so because the surgery.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
Forgery at the vet, so I put your hats up
a lot higher.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Yeah, seventy they had, thankfully, but yep, over over in
Detroy with seventy five hundred dollars for our lovely little
chip to have a little surgery to get unmentionables out
of his digestive.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
You're not song back, yeah, feeling.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
I wanted to kind of give you guys an idea
of just how cool some members of my family are.
And this is a very very uper story. So those
of you who are from failiar with the county fairs
and four h and raising your animals to show this
is really cool. So last week was the Chippewa County
Fair up in the up which is where a ton
of Chris's family lives, and our niece Mara had her
(26:14):
first year showing a pig and her beloved goat, Linus. Well,
for those of you unaware, like my city girl self,
when it comes time to show and someone buys your animals,
usually it's for food. Marra fell in love with her goat.
We heard all about him all summer. She was with
(26:34):
him every single day, training him, feeding him, taking him
for walks, getting him ready. So when it's tame time
for her to show him and sell him, she was
super due for emotional and without having any idea, Chris's
whole family pitched in and bought Linus. So now Chris's
(26:55):
grandma's farm up on the eastern end of the up
has two new goats. Actually, Linus and Dorothy both went
home together and they are now being introduced to the
cows and the new chickens that we have, and the
pictures are just so sweet. She started sobbing, started sobbing
when a bunch of the uncles and cousins stepped up
(27:16):
and bought her goats for her.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Did somebody buy the pig just out of curiosity?
Speaker 3 (27:19):
A business?
Speaker 1 (27:20):
A business bought the pig?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, yeah, I guess we'll call it this really so,
but I just thought that was the sweetest, sweetest thing.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
That is really cool of them to have done all right.
As a skateboarder myself, I would never dream in a
million years of trying to go a long distance on
a board. It is not a fun time to try
and do that. Brooke Johnson, though twenty nine year old,
felt a little bit differently and she just completed an
historic first. She has become the first woman in US
(27:53):
history to traverse the country on a skateboard three thousand,
two hundred and twenty six mile journey from Santa Monica, California,
to Virginia Beach in one hundred and nineteen days. She
spent out on the road and documenting the course the
whole thing. This was her as she finally left in Calli.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
We are heading out on the road.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
This was for Roger and everyone who has a spinal
cord injury.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
This one is for Roger and everyone who has a
spinal cord injury. The reason she said that was because
she was inspired to do this by her late stepfather, Roger,
who actually passed away after an accident left him as
a quadriplegic and a spinal cord injury. He passed away
about a year later, and he was the one who
actually encouraged Brooke to take this on and was a
(28:43):
source of inspiration the entire time.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
That was like, Roger's a really big country and he
looked at me and he goes, oh, you could do it.
He's like supported me through this whole thing of Roger
left me purpose and for that I thank him every
single day.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Yeah, And when she crossed that finish line in Virginia,
she jumped into the Atlantic with Rogers ashes contained in
a necklace around her neck and raised fifty thousand dollars
for spinal cord research through Wings of Life. Doing this
incredible journey but pretty wild over thirty two hundred miles
(29:19):
on a skateboard, but yeah, unbelievable. Feeling good coming at
you a couple times today. Always want to share amazing
stories with you. We'll do it again for you tomorrow,
six forty five and nine twenty here on Star Mack
Speaker 2 (29:28):
And Schmidty in the morning weekday, starting at six am
on Star one oh five point seven
