Speaker 1 (00:00):
When I was six point seven FM. Good Morning Jack
and Nina. We have producer Kristen here today Friday. You guys,
as kids ever have taco Night?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
You build your own tacos. Yeah, make it us even
free kids, you do it.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Okay, it's like your mother's night off. She just put
stuff on the counter and leaves.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
So last thing, you know. I go to my dad's
ninety two and I bring him dinner every once in
a while and sometimes I sit and eat. So I
brought a taco kit and I his eyes lit up
like a four year old, like wow, I haven't had
these in years. And then I made the first one
and put it on his plate and he goes, you
made it. I want to make it, Like dude, Well.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
It's like your mother cutting your cutting your steak or something.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
I think he was as excited about making his taco
as he was eating it. So I had to give it.
I ate that one. Well I made it.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
That's very oh nice taco night. The credivis you don't
need everybody to do everything. Sometimes you just want to
get in there and do your own thing. Right.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
I'm telling you, I think you evolve around as a
child once again, because as soon as I mentioned dessert,
he will push his plate away and go all right,
bring on the chocolate pudding. Wait till half the dinner's gone.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
With a hottail, more music and more Covey and Christine
coming up. One O six point seven light at them.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
It's three pretty cool things you need to know a right.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
So, scientists have created contact lenses that can give people
super vision, allowing you to see beyond visible light range. Oh,
you can see with your eyes closed. It is so intense.
They could be a replacement for night vision goggles. And
they don't require a power source. You just pop them
in the eyes and I can see for miles and miles.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I feel like when my eyes are closed, I don't
want to see. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Yeah, I close my eyes. It's for a reason.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
I'm kind of done. Yeah, here's what for the morning people.
Your mental ability goes up and down during the day
by as much as thirty percent. You are most creative though,
in the morning. It's the ideal time for writing, for
working creatively, for discussing tough topics, all those kind of things. No,
no mornings, we're here Netflix. They are opening a brick
(02:10):
and mortar called Netflix House. So it's going to be
a chain of entertainment venues. It's going to open near Philly, Dallas,
and in Vegas. The venues are going to be more
than one hundred thousand square feet. They're going to feature
experiences inspired by some of the shows like Wednesday, Squid Games,
Stranger Things, along with other shows. The Philly and the
(02:30):
Dallas locations though, are going to have a restaurant inside
as well. That interesting. Yeah, there is a squid Game
down by Macy's like thirty third and sixth Avenue that's
really popular. Yeah, it's got a big bowl of money.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
When you mentioned brick and mortar, I thought you had
to go back there and get seed. You know, VCRs
and CDs those things. Again, I was like, what I.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Wish more Covey and Chrissine and the great music variety
you expect Next on Light at.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Them six point seven. Good morning. It is Jack and
Nina producer Kristen. We are celebrating today. I am at
least first day of summer.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
You're wearing a very summery Hawaii looking T shirt shirt.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah, well it feels comfortable. It's going to be a
heat wave coming.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
It didn't mean very Friday when you came in. It
did occur to me, maybe you're on a boat later.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
I'm going to be doing something later and it's not
going to be work related.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Today is the first day of summer, the longest day
of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. Sunset tonight is
eight thirty one pm, which is fantastic. It's already bright outside.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Oh she would stay that way for like a few weeks, right,
and then start to get short.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
It starts getting short immediately.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
It's depressive.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
It's very sad by the time we get to December.
But today is the shortest day in the Southern Hemisphere.
So think about that. No, I can't. It's a weird thought,
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
But why does that freak you out? Like I don't
say it's winter time now in Australia because.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
June July August for us in summer. I can't picture
it any other way. And like like you mentioned off
the air Christmas for that is in the summertime.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yes, why hurts my head? I don't know why. Because
you never see pictures of Santa in short that's true,
and I'm sure he has them when he goes down there.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Sure, So I'm trying to do the math in my
head and this is so basic. I feel really not
smart trying to figure this out. But my brother in
law's Australian. He just went home for three weeks. They
live in Brisbane because it's it's winter there, or it's fall, right,
they're coming into fall? Is that what they would be
right now?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
I believe today is the winter solstice?
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yeah first?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Oh, yes, this is their December twenty first, so they're
heading into winter.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yes, right, short days. Yeah, does it get real cold?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I just looked it's like sixty degrees, not super cold,
and they live on the beach.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I do care when So yeah, forget.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
More Covey and Chrissine and the great music variety you expect.
Next on light at that one six.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Point seven light FM, it's Jack and Nina and producer Christian.
This morning, we're discussing our eye color. Yeah, things get
kind of quiet around here on a Friday when I
was stuff to talk about.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Well, it's because researchers found people tend to rank brown
eyed folks as more trustworthy than those who do not
have found you.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Say that because both you and Kristen have brown eyes.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
No, this is science.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Oh what color?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
What color your eyes are? Like? Blue? Right? No, they
look like the color of your shirt from here.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Well, I think that you know, whatever you're wearing sometimes
will change your eye color. But they're hazeled. According to
my license, they're hazel.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
That means you're shifty, which means what.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Right, you're just brown.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
We could wear green yellow, they're just brown.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Yeah, but it's true, right if you have a light
colored eye.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
My wife has some brown and blue, and depending on
what she wears, they look dark or they.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Look blue, brown or blue. She has two colored eyes.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
No, they're both the same, two colors. They match.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
People do have two colored eyes, that's true. David Bowie
had two colored eyes.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Has two colored eyes. Was sports, he's said he was
a picture for the masks. We shipped them off somewhere else.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
So no one cares anymore.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
So people trust brown, brown eyed people more.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
And if you think about like movie villains, they always
have red eyes or yellow eyes or something like that. Right,
it's true, Kristin would know.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yeah, those old westerns, the bat always had blue eyes.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Oh interesting, were they blonde hair and blue eyes?
Speaker 5 (06:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Yeah, they always looked freaky because it was always staring
at things.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Isn't that interesting? Because for so many years too, they
also made the villains really dark, so you had that
as well, you know, yeah, well, yeah, that's tough with
the blue eyes anyway, trust the Browns.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
More Covey and Christine coming your way online at that.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
When I was six point seven Light FM. It's Jack
and Nina and producer Kristen On Friday, June twentieth, good
to be with you. It is summer Solstice, but perhaps
more interestingly for today, it is the fiftieth anniversary of Jaws.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Came out fifty years ago to day. Incredible, right, Who
hasn't seen Jaws? True, even if you weren't around then.
It's so iconic.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
It's one of those movies that when your kids get
a certain age, you've got to watch this. Yeah, and
then you play it.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
It's scary, but it's it's good scary, I think. Right
in the end, there's a happy ending except for the shark.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, if you're a shark, plan don't watch this spoiler alert.
He dies.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
So one of the great things about that movie is
that movie was so successful in so many ways. It
became the template for all these kind of disaster films
and creature films that came later. Yeah, and yesterday the
Times put out a list of fifty movies that fit
a very specific template. They have nine things that they fit.
For instance, just a couple of them, Like, there's a creature.
There is a victim that happens in the beginning, so
(07:20):
you get a little scared. There's a reluctant hero, remember
Roy Scheider, Like he doesn't want to go Captain Brodie
to go in whim. Yeah, there's a major sacrifice. Remember
when Quinn gets eaten by the shark. One of the
major characters gets eaten, and at the end, the creature
obviously disappears or goes away in some form.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I remember the summer that that came out. Everybody said,
what a dumb idea, This is the dumb who's gonna
go watch a shark? And then we went to watch it,
and then you went to watch it. Then I live
out by the water, and I did not want to
drive home over the bridge.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I didn't want to go out in the weeds in
the backyard of our house because the weeds were scary.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Everything was scary.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Like that was scary. So this list of movies that
are exactly fit the template exactly. The first one was
actually Alien. They pitched it as Jaws in Space get Out,
So if you go and look at the format of Alien,
it's exactly the same. Yeah, So this list includes movies.
They're not all perfect like Alien, but a lot of
them are very close, like Piranha if anybody remembers that movie,
(08:21):
the Thing which came out in eighty six, a rachnophobia.
Jurassic Park is also on the same map Twister, except
for the end because the tornado doesn't blow up, it
goes away. It goes away, it ends in a happy ending.
And a Conda follows that same thing Contagion, remember the
movie about the.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
I don't know if these are a quality of Jaws.
There's a grid, so you've got a map over there.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
There's a literal map of all these films that are
like like A Quiet Place is another one that has
a very specific format that goes after Jaws. That's interesting
and that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
We've got our summer viewing all set up. Fifty movies,
these things and a.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Little Scared, Yes, more Covey and Christine and the great
music variety you expect. Next on light at them a
little loving min It's covey and Gristine. Crazy first dates.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
All right, we're here with Beth. Beth, you've got a
crazy first date story to tell us. Start from the beginning.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
I guess, okay, So I am the youngest of six kids,
three above me or all girls. So we four girls
are in five years, born in five years. Wow, I
got the tail end of everybody's goodness and badness. And
one of those good and bad stories is for my
sister who decided at the last minute she didn't want
(09:41):
to go on a blind date. And so, sitting home
as an underage, anxious girl who wants to get out, says, yeah,
let me go. I'll go. And it sounded like a
great idea at the time, so got dolled up. She
gave me her id, came to the door. Hi, I'm
I'm an We go out. I am hopping in the
car with this blind date and two other folks, and
(10:02):
we go out and we're having what seems like a
good time until I meet up with other friends who
I was having a better time with, and this poor
guy unfortunately got dumped by me and unbeknownst to him,
dumped by my sister in the same night.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Now you mentioned that you were the underage or the youngest.
Now you met friends out. I assume this was a
restaurant or a club or where did you guys go?
Speaker 5 (10:31):
It was a club and you know so, like I said,

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Them one six point seven light FM. It is Jack
and Nina and producer Christin. Thanks for having a son.
I think we were gonna I mean, it's the first
day of summer, so.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
T shirts, short sleeves, Yeah, everybody's you notice that really
quickly in the summer, right, like all of a sudden,
everybody's in flip flops and no sleeves and shit, well
it's about to hitting heat waves. It's all hanging out everywhere,
and I've got all my T shirts.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Yeah, you know out ready have moved the sweaters into
one drawer.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Adult men in graphic T shirts, how do you feel
about this? Man?
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Adult men? There's a statement right there.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
They are all childish, So.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I stepped in that.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah, but the idea of adult men wearing you know, shirts,
that like a fourteen year old boy would wear. Is that?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Is that their favorite band or some.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Logo or some ridiculous comment about the world, you know
what I mean, like smart men don't apply here, or
I'm just making stuff up, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
My theory is and I have some shirts like that.
Not like that. No, I have T shirts. If the
logo or the statement is bigger than the name tag,
I won't wear.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Oh interesting, you have a million T shirts, million all
your wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
It's all the years, and it's the same ones. I
keep repeating.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Hawaiian shirts and shirts you got in trade. Like Jack
went to an event and they gave him a T shirt.
It came out out of a box in the closet,
and that's his wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Except if my daughter gives it to me. She gave
me one for Father's Day, which says, leave me aloney,
I'm drinking in the GRONI. So I have to wear
that's cue. I have to wear that. But I think
other than like Harley Davidson, I mean, if he was
wearing that, I'm not gonna say anything.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
It's a vibe.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
It looks good, right, It's all good.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Even christ I have not seen you wear yet a
T shirt with like words on it? Oh, do you
wear any Do you have any clothes?
Speaker 1 (15:33):
I have a lot of back you've seen.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You wear Disney? Actually take that back, you were Disney
joke the other day.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
I do. I have a I have a lot of
Disney shirts. But when it comes to men, I feel
like it depends because like if they're wearing Jackie brought
this up like a c DC or something like that,
like band teas. I guess are okay, But like, have
you gone to stores and you see like Taco Bell logo.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
On a T shirt? Like what would you let your
husband not leave the house wearing? Does he have a
shirt that you go No? Do not? You can wear it,
but I can't.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Be around well no, because I shot for him, So
she nips it in the bud, right. No.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
I have a few shirts from back in the day
that my wife says, yeah, feel free to wear them.
I just won't be around. Yeah, fair enough anywhere near
you
When I was six point seven FM. Good Morning Jack
and Nina. We have producer Kristen here today Friday. You guys,

So think about that. No, I can't. It's a weird thought,
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
But why does that freak you out? Like I don't
say it's winter time now in Australia because.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
June July August for us in summer. I can't picture
it any other way. And like like you mentioned off
the air Christmas for that is in the summertime.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yes, why hurts my head? I don't know why. Because
you never see pictures of Santa in short that's true,
and I'm sure he has them when he goes down there.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Sure, So I'm trying to do the math in my
head and this is so basic. I feel really not
smart trying to figure this out. But my brother in
law's Australian. He just went home for three weeks. They
live in Brisbane because it's it's winter there, or it's fall, right,
they're coming into fall? Is that what they would be
right now?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
I believe today is the winter solstice?
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yeah first?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Oh, yes, this is their December twenty first, so they're
heading into winter.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yes, right, short days. Yeah, does it get real cold?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I just looked it's like sixty degrees, not super cold,
and they live on the beach.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I do care when So yeah, forget.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
More Covey and Chrissine and the great music variety you expect.
Next on light at that one six.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Point seven light FM, it's Jack and Nina and producer Christian.
This morning, we're discussing our eye color. Yeah, things get
kind of quiet around here on a Friday when I
was stuff to talk about.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Well, it's because researchers found people tend to rank brown
eyed folks as more trustworthy than those who do not
have found you.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Say that because both you and Kristen have brown eyes.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
No, this is science.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Oh what color?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
What color your eyes are? Like? Blue? Right? No, they
look like the color of your shirt from here.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Well, I think that you know, whatever you're wearing sometimes
will change your eye color. But they're hazeled. According to
my license, they're hazel.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
That means you're shifty, which means what.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Right, you're just brown.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
We could wear green yellow, they're just brown.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Yeah, but it's true, right if you have a light
colored eye.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
My wife has some brown and blue, and depending on
what she wears, they look dark or they.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Look blue, brown or blue. She has two colored eyes.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
No, they're both the same, two colors. They match.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
People do have two colored eyes, that's true. David Bowie
had two colored eyes.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Has two colored eyes. Was sports, he's said he was
a picture for the masks. We shipped them off somewhere else.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
So no one cares anymore.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
So people trust brown, brown eyed people more.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
And if you think about like movie villains, they always
have red eyes or yellow eyes or something like that. Right,
it's true, Kristin would know.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yeah, those old westerns, the bat always had blue eyes.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
Oh interesting, were they blonde hair and blue eyes?
Speaker 5 (06:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Yeah, they always looked freaky because it was always staring
at things.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Isn't that interesting? Because for so many years too, they
also made the villains really dark, so you had that
as well, you know, yeah, well, yeah, that's tough with
the blue eyes anyway, trust the Browns.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
More Covey and Christine coming your way online at that.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
When I was six point seven Light FM. It's Jack
and Nina and producer Kristen On Friday, June twentieth, good
to be with you. It is summer Solstice, but perhaps
more interestingly for today, it is the fiftieth anniversary of Jaws.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Came out fifty years ago to day. Incredible, right, Who
hasn't seen Jaws? True, even if you weren't around then.
It's so iconic.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
It's one of those movies that when your kids get
a certain age, you've got to watch this. Yeah, and
then you play it.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
It's scary, but it's it's good scary, I think. Right
in the end, there's a happy ending except for the shark.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, if you're a shark, plan don't watch this spoiler alert.
He dies.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
So one of the great things about that movie is
that movie was so successful in so many ways. It
became the template for all these kind of disaster films
and creature films that came later. Yeah, and yesterday the
Times put out a list of fifty movies that fit
a very specific template. They have nine things that they fit.
For instance, just a couple of them, Like, there's a creature.
There is a victim that happens in the beginning, so
(07:20):
you get a little scared. There's a reluctant hero, remember
Roy Scheider, Like he doesn't want to go Captain Brodie
to go in whim. Yeah, there's a major sacrifice. Remember
when Quinn gets eaten by the shark. One of the
major characters gets eaten, and at the end, the creature
obviously disappears or goes away in some form.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I remember the summer that that came out. Everybody said,
what a dumb idea, This is the dumb who's gonna
go watch a shark? And then we went to watch it,
and then you went to watch it. Then I live
out by the water, and I did not want to
drive home over the bridge.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I didn't want to go out in the weeds in
the backyard of our house because the weeds were scary.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Everything was scary.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Like that was scary. So this list of movies that
are exactly fit the template exactly. The first one was
actually Alien. They pitched it as Jaws in Space get Out,
So if you go and look at the format of Alien,
it's exactly the same. Yeah, So this list includes movies.
They're not all perfect like Alien, but a lot of
them are very close, like Piranha if anybody remembers that movie,
(08:21):
the Thing which came out in eighty six, a rachnophobia.
Jurassic Park is also on the same map Twister, except
for the end because the tornado doesn't blow up, it
goes away. It goes away, it ends in a happy ending.
And a Conda follows that same thing Contagion, remember the
movie about the.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
I don't know if these are a quality of Jaws.
There's a grid, so you've got a map over there.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
There's a literal map of all these films that are
like like A Quiet Place is another one that has
a very specific format that goes after Jaws. That's interesting
and that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
We've got our summer viewing all set up. Fifty movies,
these things and a.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Little Scared, Yes, more Covey and Christine and the great

All right, we're here with Beth. Beth, you've got a
crazy first date story to tell us. Start from the beginning.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
I guess, okay, So I am the youngest of six kids,
three above me or all girls. So we four girls
are in five years, born in five years. Wow, I
got the tail end of everybody's goodness and badness. And
one of those good and bad stories is for my
sister who decided at the last minute she didn't want
(09:41):
to go on a blind date. And so, sitting home
as an underage, anxious girl who wants to get out, says, yeah,
let me go. I'll go. And it sounded like a
great idea at the time, so got dolled up. She
gave me her id, came to the door. Hi, I'm
I'm an We go out. I am hopping in the
car with this blind date and two other folks, and
(10:02):
we go out and we're having what seems like a
good time until I meet up with other friends who
I was having a better time with, and this poor
guy unfortunately got dumped by me and unbeknownst to him,
dumped by my sister in the same night.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Now you mentioned that you were the underage or the youngest.
Now you met friends out. I assume this was a
restaurant or a club or where did you guys go?
Speaker 5 (10:31):

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Them one six point seven light FM. It is Jack
and Nina and producer Christin. Thanks for having a son.
I think we were gonna I mean, it's the first
day of summer, so.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
T shirts, short sleeves, Yeah, everybody's you notice that really
quickly in the summer, right, like all of a sudden,
everybody's in flip flops and no sleeves and shit, well
it's about to hitting heat waves. It's all hanging out everywhere,
and I've got all my T shirts.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Yeah, you know out ready have moved the sweaters into
one drawer.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Adult men in graphic T shirts, how do you feel
about this? Man?
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Adult men? There's a statement right there.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
They are all childish, So.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I stepped in that.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Yeah, but the idea of adult men wearing you know, shirts,
that like a fourteen year old boy would wear. Is that?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Is that their favorite band or some.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Logo or some ridiculous comment about the world, you know
what I mean, like smart men don't apply here, or
I'm just making stuff up, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
My theory is and I have some shirts like that.
Not like that. No, I have T shirts. If the
logo or the statement is bigger than the name tag,
I won't wear.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Oh interesting, you have a million T shirts, million all
your wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
It's all the years, and it's the same ones. I
keep repeating.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Hawaiian shirts and shirts you got in trade. Like Jack
went to an event and they gave him a T shirt.
It came out out of a box in the closet,
and that's his wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Except if my daughter gives it to me. She gave
me one for Father's Day, which says, leave me aloney,
I'm drinking in the GRONI. So I have to wear
that's cue. I have to wear that. But I think
other than like Harley Davidson, I mean, if he was
wearing that, I'm not gonna say anything.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
It's a vibe.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
It looks good, right, It's all good.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Even christ I have not seen you wear yet a
T shirt with like words on it? Oh, do you
wear any Do you have any clothes?
Speaker 1 (15:33):
I have a lot of back you've seen.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You wear Disney? Actually take that back, you were Disney
joke the other day.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
I do. I have a I have a lot of
Disney shirts. But when it comes to men, I feel
like it depends because like if they're wearing Jackie brought
this up like a c DC or something like that,
like band teas. I guess are okay, But like, have
you gone to stores and you see like Taco Bell logo.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
On a T shirt? Like what would you let your
husband not leave the house wearing? Does he have a
shirt that you go No? Do not? You can wear it,
but I can't.
