(00:02):
on a staycasion. She's still local, but she's sleeping in
right now. Producer Christen's back. Welcome back to you, Christian,
thank you. We're all over the place this week. It's
going to be an odd schedule. We've talked about this
briefly yesterday.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
But hey, summer, everybody's out of pocket doing.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Their thing, and this really feels like the last week
of vacation for a lot of people. How to get
it in. Some schools start this week, I think, but
a majority of them are next week.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Yes, starting before Labor Day is depressing.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Sorry, kids, I agree. I grew up after Labor Day.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
That was my thing, always after Labor Day.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
But like in Georgia and South Carolina and Alabama, it's
like it was like three weeks ago already.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Thank goodness, we're not there.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
I think they're used to that though, But there are
some Jersey schools that started yesterday for sure.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Yeah, so Nina, you're in for Christine all week. Yes,
you'll be in that seat all week. Yes, I will
be here all week except for tomorrow. My daughter Naomi
has her kindergarten orientation, So we get to meet the
teachers and just see the routine that she have. I'm
looking forward to that a lot. And then you're not
going to be here Kristin on Thursday for your kids oriented.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
That's right, pre K four orientation.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yeah, so it's happening. Wow. I can't believe I'm going
to be that parent that post a picture of my
kid at the bus stop saying first day of kindergarten.
I never thought i'd be that parent, but I'm going
to be contributing to social media with that first day
of school pick.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Congratulations.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
I know it's like a rite of passage, right absolutely. Yeah,
speaking of kids, producer Kristin has a really tough issue
and so far it's going okay. But so you're trying
to pack for a surprise trip, yes, that the kids
don't know about.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
They have no idea. And you know, my daughter Bowie,
she's only two years old, she has no idea what's
going on. But my son Jagger, he's four, and it's
very smart, and it's like, why is the suitcase out?
Where are we going? Why are doing so much laundry?

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Mommy? I'm like, oh my.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
God, why are you doing so much laundry, Mommy, why
so much?

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Questions? Exactly?

Speaker 3 (01:55):
So, you know, we're going down to Disney World this
weekend for a labor day and it's very difficult to
pack with them not knowing that this is happening.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Why did you decide to make it a surprise. Well,
because we.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Weren't sure we were definitely going to take the trip
and we didn't want to plan it in their heads,
especially Jagger's head. And then right, and if we canceled,
it would have been Yeah, it would have been a thing.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
So when you put them in the car the morning,
you're going to the airport, right, what are you going
to say to him?

Speaker 3 (02:22):
We're going out? And then when we get to the
airport he will figure it out one hundred percent because
we only go to the airport to go to Disney World.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
So and you only go to Disney.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
World as of right now?

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yes, that's really really do pass holders? Right?

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:36):
We have annual passes?

Speaker 4 (02:37):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Wow? Wow? So how many times do you think you
have to go to pay off or not or take
advantage of the season pass?

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Not?

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Not a lot.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
If you go to a park, I'd say between six
to eight times. Yeah a year, Yeah, you pay for it. Yeah,
that still seems to me.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
That seems like a lot, because every time you it's
the trip, the tickets, the whole or deal. Not the
park's great, but it's the ordeal of getting there of course.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Well yeah, the flights, the hotel, committed everything.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Yeah, Well you know, it's what we do, that's what
we spend our money.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah. Yeah. And last question, did you book Victoria Parking?
Not yet? Not yet? You gotta do that yet. Yeah.
You know, there are a lot of places you can
park outside of Newark, you know, the off site parking
spat Yes, and I've done a lot of them. But
I want to shout out Victoria Parking. All right, They've
never given anything free to me. I've always paid. But
every time I get in their shuttle bus to go

(03:28):
to the airport to go to the terminal, uh huh,
they have light FM on. Oh so Victoria Parking, shout
out to you. It will every time I get in
their little shuttle to go to the terminal, Light FM
is always playing. I love it.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
So if you're driving the shuttle right now, hey, hey.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
All right, four four three six three, give us a text.
If you're tuned in four, four, three six three on
text more Cubby and Christine coming up. But first, if
you're a parrot, you totally know this.

Speaker 5 (03:54):
The average four year old child will ask over three
hundred questions a day, most of them one more.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Why light FM? Pretty cool? It's three pretty cool things
you need to know. This is really cool. We just
found how how old Jupiter is. No one knew how
old Jupiter was until just recently. Scientists have determined Jupiter
formed about four point five billion years ago thanks to
ancient rain drops found in meteorites. These rain drops, known

(04:22):
as chand rules, have enabled researchers to date the planet's
origin for the very first time. Now we know Jupiter
is four point five billion years old. Wow, we never
knew it.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
So we went and snatched a rain drop? Is that
what happened?

Speaker 1 (04:34):
That's all it took? Can you believe that? How is Earth?
By the way, How old is Earth? How old is Earth?
Are we older than four point five billion? Well?

Speaker 3 (04:44):
No, we are approximately four point five billion years old.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Wait wait, also Jupiter and Earth the same age where
we created in one big bang?

Speaker 1 (04:53):
It has to be it's the Big Bank.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
Is that the Big Bang theory? That's more than a
TV show. There's an actual line.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
I'm a believer in that old All right, what do
you have as a cool thing, Nina? So this is
a cool thing.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
I actually had a little involvement, and so on Friday
night there was the Yankees Red Sox game. I was there.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Not really was that the game where like the Red
Sox blew them out?

Speaker 2 (05:13):
They blew them out? All yeah, well they won to zero.
It was not a great game except for a squirrel
that ran on the field. So there was a squirrel
that came out and uh, stop gameplay for a little bit,
and Tops gave the squirrel a baseball card.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Oh that's so cool. You could trade it now.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Well it's already sold out, but yes, you could trade
this little baseball card for the squirrel. The squirrel came
out and ran to home plate and then ran to
the first base and then it sort of disappeared into
one of the signs. And every once in a while
they wishure was signed, and there was like a squirrel,
you know, all fours spread out inside the signs on
the outfield.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
And you were at that game, and I was at
that game.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
That was the only good thing in that game because
it was one to zero red sox right.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
And the next day I think they lost ten nothing
or something like something horrible. There's not a great week.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
And you said it was sold out. Yes, you know
how much that's going to be worth something. It's going
to be worth something.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Yeah, yep, all right, you're up, Christian.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Okay, well we're staying in the in the baseball realm.
We're gonna do a little today in history. On August
twenty sixth, nineteen thirty nine, the first televised Major League
baseball game was broadcasted on experimental station W two x BS.
The game was between the Cincinnati Reds and the Brooklyn
Dodgers in Brooklyn, the Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
Back when you can watch a game for free over
the air, sure, before you have to pay on a
streaming of device or Amazon.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
WXB two x or whatever is the name of the channel,
W two XBS.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
They were to experimental station.

You more Covey and Chrissine and the Great Music Variety
fact next on Light at Them.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
Do you really think we should do this topic because
it's gonna make people feel older? But no, no, no,
it's interesting though. It's one of six point seven Light
of FM. Cubby Christine Kristen, we found this list here.
Seven sounds people born after the year two thousand wouldn't recognize.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
You know, I feel bad for them. They don't know
these sounds. Yeah, we wore them a nostalgic.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
We live these sounds, Yes, we lived them. Seven sounds
people born after two thousand might not recognize. And producer
Kristin loaded the sounds in the computer and Christine give
me the seven sounds that people after born in two
thousand won't know that well, like your kids, right, they exactly.

Speaker 4 (10:39):
They will not recognize the sound of a floppy disk.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Drive, which sounds like this, remember like.

Speaker 4 (10:49):
Loading it in a little weir in the buzz and
then it pumps out. Loved pushing that.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Button, Yes, right, it felt good, right, it just right?

Speaker 4 (10:56):
How about a cassette tape and you had to rewind it?

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Yeah, this is the audio of a rewounding or rewinding cassette.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Oh maybe we.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Don't miss that one? No one that that I miss
again just for nostalgia because it appels so old school.
Is phone operatorside for one one?

Speaker 1 (11:24):
Yeah? You can call four on one still, can't you?

Speaker 4 (11:28):
I don't know with four one one for information?

Speaker 1 (11:31):
That's a great question. Can you call for one one?
Let me try it? Yeah? Would it work? Like you
don't give the dollar like out of a company line like.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
The cell phone, my cell phone? Yeah all right? How
about if you were really upset with somebody slamming a
landline phone it felt so good.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
Can you imagine slamming your cell phone now you're mad?
That's what I'm saying. You would literally break it.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
That only happens like in the movies and TV shows.
They're like so angry and they take their phone.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
I used to call Christine all the time when I
first met her, like in ninety six, and then she'd
be like, cubby, cubby, please. Do you know, by the way,
you know how to end a phone call on a
cell phone if you want someone to think that the
call failed. Yeah you know this right, Kristen. You put
in an airplane mode Oh, if you're on a call and
you don't want them to know, like you hung up, Yeah,

(12:28):
you hit airplane mode. And then it'll go call failed
on their and they'll think that you hit a bad
signal or something, you know, call them back for five
more hours or something. Yeah, and was in a bad
spot for five hours or five hours spot. Another sound
that people born after two thousand might not know.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
I can remember people falling asleep to this cubby static
on the.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
TV in the national anthem.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
Oh, when it's really over, Yeah, we would call it snow, right, snow.
Snow would come up on the TV.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Christen looked at me weird when I mentioned the national anthem.
Do you know what I'm talking about?

Speaker 4 (13:04):
Programming was done for the day.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
And like one or two in the morning, TV would
go off the air. You would hear a static and
then the national anthem.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
Or no, the national anthem, and then your status and
then static until you got cartoons in the morning or
so right exactly, Okay, I miss some typewriter keys hm.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Somebody born after two thousand would not know what that is.

Speaker 4 (13:24):
No, that sound, but maybe Taylor Swift is bringing it
back a little bit. And finally, oh, love these old
cash register sounds.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yeah, you know you're in a classic store. If you
hear that.

Speaker 4 (13:36):
That looks so fun to hit those little buttons and
the door opens instead of.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Boop the scan sound. Yeah, that's hit us up on
text at four four three six three. I'm sure there
are other sounds that people born after two thousand wouldn't recognize,
and if you think you have one, let us know
about it.

Speaker 5 (13:55):
Starting at A twenty three hours of commercial free, NonStop

flashback track snippet. We have to address something. Nina, you
have no idea what we're doing here, but Kristin and
I do. We got a text at nine o'clock at night,

Only Christine. Christine, of course, being on vacation, was very
sad that she wasn't going to be here today because
she couldn't announce that public public PSL is Pumpkin spice
latte at Starbucks. Yes, and it starts today.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
She could have had it. She could have come back
for that.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
I would have been happy to go home. That explains it.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
She's very happy about it.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
She likes she clearly star Starbucks specificlarly Christine, it's pumpkin
spice Latte day.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
We have your note, right, we got it all right?
The world knows, so Duncan was last week today Starbucks
and pumpkin spice everywhere, right, every you know? I had.
I had pumpkin spice beer at Buffalo Wild Wings on
Friday that it was actually pretty good. I was looking
for something on draft and they had all the little
draft things. What do you call them that you pour draft?

Speaker 3 (16:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (16:22):
Called a nozzle? Sure, a draft nozzle. What do you
call the thing you pull down? So I saw like
your typical I saw your butt light, your mickeylbe and
all that stuff. And then I saw a black and
orange draft puller thing Halloween, and I said, what is that?

(16:42):
They go, It's just pumpkin spice beer.

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Someone Texas and tell us what that is. But yes,
it was good.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
I thought it was gonna be nasty, but it was
actually really good.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Okay, that's an endorsement. I thought it was going to
be nasty, but.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
It was good. I can't remember the name of it though.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
The menu for all the Starbucks stuff, actually there's some
good stuff that sounds pretty good. There's iced pumpkin cream. Hi,
I like the sound of this, pecan crunch oat milk latte.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
This sounds good to you. Sounds good. Sounds okay, But
what else?

Speaker 2 (17:08):
Pumpkin cream cold brew?

Speaker 1 (17:10):
All right, yeah, that's kind of the menu. Well, I
hope Christine's happy that we broke the news and it's official,
you know, because Starbucks said so. And let's fall again.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
Hmm yeah, sure, I'm gonna go get one after the show.

Speaker 4 (17:23):

expect next on Light Out.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
Them Cubby and Christine in the Morning is the show.
But Christine is off today, Nina's in, Hello, producer, Christen's in.
And there's a chance for a listener to win Billie
Eilish concert tickets right now. And there's actually a chance
for you to win something, right now, Nina del Rio,
there is yeah, because we have a twenty dollars bet
on this.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
Well one to twenty, yes, so we'll be doing double
or nothing. What is it we can do double? I
don't want to do double?

Speaker 1 (17:52):
All right. So here's here's the thing we were talking
about off the air. I've picked a ninety song. We're
going to play a clip of this song and you
tell us the title and artist. And Nina told me
that I don't think anybody's gonna get that.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
I think it's kind of a challenging one.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
And I told Nina that I think the first caller
is going to get this.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
Really, Kristin, what do you think we bet on the
first caller or just in general?

Speaker 1 (18:15):
It's the first correct caller to identify the title and
artist of the song snippet we are about the Okay?

Speaker 3 (18:20):
Does that does that change your answer?

Speaker 4 (18:21):
Nina?

Speaker 2 (18:22):
No, I still think people are not going to get it,
all right.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
It's a song from the nineties. Title and artist, first
correct caller, You're going to Billy Eilish here we go.
So easy, man, It's it's easy.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Yeah, I think it's easy.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
Okay, But but Nina del Rio, says Covey. I think
you picked a hard one. I think we're even take
your money. How about that? I mean, whoa one more time?
What song is this? Title and artist? One hundred two
two one oh sixt seven. You're going to Billy Eilish
if you get it right?

Speaker 5 (18:57):
More Covey and Christine and the great music you expect
next on light FM.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
Well U six L seven light FM. Cut me Christine
produce a Christian But you're not Christine, she's on vacation.
You're Nina del Rio. And you said that you'll give
me money or I give you money. Money. Well, here's
the deal. We're going to play a snippet of a
ninety song, a little snippet. You claim, Nina that it's
too hard and that no one's going to get it
on the first try, and in fact, if they do

(19:24):
get it on the first try, I will win money
from you.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Right, No, I'm going to give you a dollar. You're
gonna give me twenty. That was the best, all right, right?

Speaker 1 (19:32):

It's Tuesday and yeah, all right, so this is anything
anytime you talk about a death here it's it's a
dark topic that's super humorous. It is not very funny,
but you can learn something from this. Two thousand deaths
occur annually in America due to people falling down the stairs. Ay,

(20:58):
that's a lot of people.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
It's a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
And I think we all have a story where we've
fallen down the stairs. Didn't it.

Vana Trump die from falling down the stairs.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
I think you're right. Yeah, yeah, I think you're right.
That happened.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
That happened in the last couple of years. Yeah, yes, yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
I fell down the stairs about two years ago. We
have a layout similar to you, producer Christen, because we
were talking off the air, where you go down a flight,
there's a landing pad kind of like a to stop
your fall. Yeah, like a little square and you go
down more though, did you go all the way down?
I went down the first part, all the way down,
and like I was on my back the whole time.

(21:34):
Oh you get my ribs hurt? Oh? I remember thinking
I broke a rib for like a week. It was
just a bruise, but it was like, you know, not
that was me. My gosh, We've all done it, have
you dot? I mean I slipped. Not so long ago.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
I was going in the basement and I had wet
shoes on, and I just went down on my like
my tailbone, I really And I hit my arms too.
I hit like my my forearms right, and I thought
I broke a bone for like, I don't know, two months.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
It hurt. Wow. Was anybody home when that happened? Because
when mine happened, my wife wasn't at home, and I
was like going, oh, at the bottom of the landing thing.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
I was home alone. I thought I was gonna throw up. Like,
I hit it so hard it was like nauseating.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, now I know why. I like, like they have
life alert for the for sure, because I thought I
need I might need help. But eventually, you know, after
like two minutes. But I'm like, man, that was scary.
How about you, Kristen.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
I you know what two years ago, I fell down
the stairs when I was pregnant. Oh yeah, it was
a couple of stairs. But you know, when you're yourself, Yeah,
I thought myself it was very scary. But two weeks
ago my husband fell down the stairs. I think I
think I told that.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
By the way, I haven't checked it. He's okay, but
you never brought it up, so I figure he's okay.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
Yeah, he had some like wrist pain. But he took
the gate because you know, we have a gate up
because of the kids. I ripped out of the wall.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
It was scary. Yeah, socks on or anything.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
He did it socks so he didn't have socks on.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
When the I've taught the kids, you know, they're five
and three, when you go down the stay hold on
to the railing every time. Yeah, And they do a
pretty good job at that. Every now and then they
get a little wobbly, and I get nervous.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Everybody needs to hold on though. You know, you're just
not paying attention, you're on your phone, you got wet
shoes or socks or something, and before you know it.

Speaker 1 (23:12):

The beach, you got, the mountains, you get it all here.

One of six pointy seven light a FM. Cubby Nina
and we got producer Kristen and Christine's on vacation. So
every May, right before Memorial Day. They ask radio people
when I say they like, you know, like a Billboard magazine.
You know, they'll wonder what's going to be the song

(25:32):
of the summer, And everybody tries to predict what song
will be the song of the summer, and it looks
like Ordinary by Alex Warren is indeed the song of
twenty twenty five based on the fact how long it
was number one, how often it was played, played sales,
all that so and I get it. That was a
huge hit. Still is Yeah, So shout out to Alex
Warden the song of twenty twenty five Ordinary. Interesting. You

(25:56):
actually have a list of other I have a summer.

Speaker 2 (25:58):

Speaker 1 (26:17):

no no, it was vision of Love, Can't let Go, Someday,
and then I don't want to cry.

Speaker 2 (26:51):

like those were the only two that were She was
a song at summer.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
What was your high school, Nina? What year? What year?

Speaker 2 (27:00):

Eighty seven it was oh it's right here waiting Richard Marks,
which is not a bad song, but I want something
