Speaker 1 (00:00):
Thank you for having us on. Good morning, I'm Cobby
(00:01):
with Nina in for the vacation in Christine Naggy. We
got producer Kristen. LIGHTFM is on on this big real
ID day. Throw out the fake IDs, get at your
real IDs. No, it gott be thinking, you know, like
we're on the air at a time where people are
going to the airport right now. Sure, and you might
be on the shuttle bus at the Newark off site
parking and going to the There's one shuttle bus company
(00:23):
that has light FM on all the time, and you
might be on that bus right now. Everyone to your terminal.
Good morning, Hi there, do you have the real ID?
Are you prepared? So if you don't have that little
star on your license, because today's the day you have
to have it, Yeah, they will still let you fly.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Right, they will still let you fly for now, that's
the quote from Homeland Security. However, they're gonna hold you
up a little bit. They say you might have to
do additional steps, which probably means additional screening. If you
have your passport. There's certain things like a passport card
or a passport you can use that in lieu of
a real ID for the foreseeable future.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Yeah, if you have a passport and the passport's brand
new and you have ten years left on it, you
can use that for ten years if you want to
be fair.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
They did say, I don't know about New York State,
but I saw the other day New Jersey has the
lowest compliance with real id's. It's only like thirty percent
of people in New Jersey have them, so lots of
people do not have these things. And yeah, I don't
have one.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Now what does that mean?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Eris because we don't care. Yeah, we'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Yeah, well, so my license expires anyway at the end
of May.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Oh do you have a real idea yet?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I don't, but they told me, Well, the mail said
I could actually get it while I renew my shore license. Yeah,
because did you. I didn't know that every now and
then you can't renew your license online. Yes, you can
do it every time. But this one came in the
mail and it said you must go to a DMV
to get this one done. Maybe it's been what too long?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
I think maybe your face changes or something, right.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Right, you know, And speaking of traveling, you're telling me
there's like travel deals out there, so check with your
favorite airline.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Well, remember, I think these are specific to Newark Airport.
I do not know about JFKN Laguardi. But because Newark
Airport is having so many issues, there is a deal
right now, a big United domestic sale out of Newark
Airport to NonStop flights around the country from Arch to
May to Atlanta to Austin to Chicago, to Cincinnati to Columbus.
All these flights are under two hundred bucks. You can
(02:07):
go to going dot com, which is kind of like
a flight deal site, and they have a ton of
cheap flights, probably because people are a little nervous to fly.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Well. Yeah, and Newark's a hot mess right now.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Yeah, if you want to put up with a hot
mess for lesson two hundred bucks, there you go.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah. And today's National Tourism Day, a good day to
book a trip.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
We're coming right back with three pretty cool things right
here at LANTFM.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Covey and Christine in the morning more next on one
o six point seven light FM's pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
It's three pretty cool things you need to know.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Hey, they always say it's a great thing if you
can be an organ donor, you know. Yeah, I am
not full disclosure. I've been thinking about it, are you.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I think I mean to be, but it's not on
my driver's lessons now, right, Kristen, No.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I know it's important. I know there's a weight list.
But did you know that the Pope cannot be an
organ donor?
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Oh? Why?
Speaker 1 (02:56):
The Catholic Church views the pope's body and therefore his
organs as belonging to the church, preventing him from being
an organ donor. Any pope and the future pope, whoever
the new Pope is in a few days, cannot be
an organ donor.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
That seems like a mistake, but he does have to
have real id Oh sure of course?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Or were you gonna say, Christina?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
No, I find that interesting.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
I'm surprised. I didn't know that. Yes, as a as
a Catholic, but it makes sense.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
It does well.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
But if they did it, it would be such an
encouragement for all the people because the wait list is
years and years and years long.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
True.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Do you know? Maybe I think it would be useful.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
The new Pope can change that and become an organd doze. Well,
we'll see, all right, what do you have, Nina?
Speaker 2 (03:34):
The cliche happy wife, happy life actually true?
Speaker 1 (03:39):
You're preaching to the choir man.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
In a study involving couples married for four decades, it
was found that when the wife was happier, it holds
greater weight than her spouse when it comes to maintaining
a harmonious relationship. You make the ladies happy, they are
nicer to you and you will live longer.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah. Yeah, and you can relate and Christian can relate.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, sure can, Yeah, absolutely, all.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Right, producer, Kristin, what do you have is your cool thing?
Speaker 3 (04:03):
We are living through NBA history right now. So the
conference semifinals are happening as we speak, and it's the
first time in NBA history that all four road teams
won game one of the divisional conference semifinals in the
same season.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
So the Knicks beat the Celtics in Boston, the Pacers
beat the Cavaliers in Cleveland, the Nuggets beat the Thunder
in Denver, and the Warriors beat the Timberwolves in Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
That's impressive.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yea going home sad?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Yeah like me? Yeah, you're you're a Boston Celtics fan, Kristin.
And they play tonight up at the TD Garden. Yeah,
let's go nixt Sorry.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Kristin more Cobby and Christine and the great music variety
you expect next on light at them.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Well, we did the Whitney Houston Challenge and I think, well,
you guys nailed it. Me not so much. It's Cubby,
Nina del Rio, we got producer Kristen and light FMA
is on good our Instagram page and is it the
first video up there? Is it's not under the story,
is it? But it's like up there it's a real
correct that's correct. Go to one oh six seven light
FM on Instagram and check out what me and Nina
(05:08):
and Kristen did yesterday. And if you could, in a nutshell,
even though I could do it, produce a christin. How
would you describe the Whitney Houston Challenge? So what's the
name of the song? I Will Always love You?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Okay, I will always love you.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
It's the part where I guess it's right before that
powerful part of the chorus comes in, but there's like
a couple seconds of silence. So the whole point is
that you have to try to hit the beat exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And it's an odd beat, like it's hard to time
out even if you tap your foot it's a little
bit strange. Right, So there's been a challenge online and
two of us did it.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, well all three of us did it, but you
two nailed it. Yeah, but you could do it, and
we had two chances though, yes, it takes us a
little bit, so there is that. But I had two
chances and I didn't do very well. You did worse
the second time. I was overthinking it. I was overthinking
it really hard. It really is so like basically, here's
what you'll hear, and people try to match the beat
(06:03):
right on target.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Here.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
You just did it well because I could see the file.
I have a computer here that tells me when it's
gonna come in. But yeah, so people all over social media.
You don't need a drum. We had a drum, but
you could do it with a like a spoon and
a pan. Yeah, you can do it at home. But
it's been viral and we finally got a chance to
do it, and I think it's pretty pretty funny. And
(06:34):
again I saw you, by the way, doing the the count.
You're kind of like doing the four count.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, but I think it's like five. It's be honest,
it's on the upbeat of five.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
So that's the trick without looking well, I can see
the file here.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Try it, Try it again.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yeah, put your hand in the air. Now, when does
the beat come in? She got it.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
I was like half a I was a little I
don't know what I was, but I wasn't on it.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, the Whitney Houston Channel. Okay. Interesting.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Check it out on Instagram one six seven Light FM
on Instagram.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
More Covey and Christine and the great music variety you
expect next on Light at.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Them Hello there Covey with Nina and for Christine, producer Christen.
The toughest job in America, according to this nationwide survey,
A firefighter at number one. I get it totally. I mean,
but you could argue a lot of these others could
be number one, like construction worker at number two. Job
couldn't do it? Construction worker, you lose a thumb. Yeah,
(07:36):
Military number three, certainly, doctor number four, that's mental, police
officer number five, that's stressful, number six, e M t
or paramedic number seven.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
An astronaut, some astronauts certain ones.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Yeah, Michail King, Katie Perry, No, no, no again. Toughest
jobs in America farmer.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Farmer's very hard and very stressful.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Now, what is it about being a farmer that's so hard?
I know it's hard. Is it the hour of the weather.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
I think the weather is a lot of it, and
I think the stress of it.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Okay, yeah, this has been in the news at number
nine air traffic controller. Very suctressful. Yeah, a lot of
lives at stake, right. Number ten is an oil work.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
You have to work on one of those rigs out
there in the ocean.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
You know what I always heard was the toughest and
it's not on here. And they said the deadliest is
a lagger, a logger, you know how you're out there,
like you have to climb the trees, trees falling, you're
getting the river with the you'd have to be on
the river, and like they said, that was the biggest
cause of death or the most likely cause of death.
And work when you have to, you know, put the
logs on the river and they float them down or
maybe fall in between and get crushed. Ooh yeah, not
(08:41):
that we have a lot of loggers around here, but
all right, I got always sticks in my head.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Number eleven is a nurse. Number twelve is a roofer.
Thirteen is an electrician. They must get electrocuted all the time.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Oh my god, imagine their fingers.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Even to me, even the smartest electrician must get electrocuted
all the time. Of course, it's so many wires. Let's
get to the bottom here. Home builder number fourteen, an
engineer number fifteen, a pilot number sixteen, a teacher number seventeen.
Shout out to all the teachers. I know your job
is very hard, but also very rewarding. Lawyer eighteen, carpenter
(09:13):
number nineteen, and that's a woodworker or a cabinet maker
as well. And finally at number twenty, a drywall or
plaster installer.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
There's a guy on Instagram. I wish I could remember
his name who does drywall, and he's like a magician
with the drywall, you know, putting it up so quickly
and cutting it and could put the whole sheet up
like it's a whole skill set. Notice how most of
these a lot of these have to do with construction.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Does anything here surprise you though? On the list, it
all makes sense to me.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Lawyer's tough in what way? Like mentally, like you hate
your client and you got to defend them. Yeah, is
that what that is about?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Well, number, what number was lawyer? Oh, you're right, it's
number eighteen, so it's near the bottom of the top twenty.
But still, I guess you just have to have all
your facts, right man, You got to like have everything.
Sleepless nights, sleepless night.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It's a lot of a lot of work, a lot
of reading. But ah, you know, kristin your thought, I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
I think there's certain I guess the order, you know,
I would think that you know, a policeman, maybe police officer.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't know. Was it higher?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Well, shout shout out to your dad, by the way, Oh.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Thank you. My dad's retired. Yeah, my brother is too.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Yeah cool, Yeah, dad served for a long time.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And what area did they work in?
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Well, my dad was he retired detective for the Port
Authority okay, and my brother now works for Oh he changed.
He was NYPD, now he is Rockland County Okay, he's
in rock County.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Name and badge number police, Yeah, No, I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
I don't know all that.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
You know, technically, I think by law they have to
give their name and badge number if you ask, right.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Maybe, like if you don't like, like you're giving me
a ticket? Why I need your name and badge number?
That kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Or you can just go up to a police officer
at random.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Like if they're having lunch, well don't they wear it?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
They do wear it.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
It's like Smither's four or five eight nine.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
But if you can't read it. I think by law
they have to say their name and badge number. They
can't go why do you want it?
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Like?
Speaker 1 (11:01):
They can't do that. They have to say it. Correct
me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
At four four someone will more Covey and Christine and
the great music variety you expect next on light F them.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
One on six point seven light FM, Cubby and Nina
del Rio and for the Vacation in Christine Nagy producer Kristen.
Another fun thing that Reddit did. People are chiming in
on how comfortable they are disclosing their age, and most
people are kind of comfortable with it. It just depends
those variables involved.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Well, the people who responded to this survey are comfortable.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Very true. A lot of them said they're before twenty five.
They're very comfortable. After twenty five, maybe they become a
little less comfortable, which I get but some people say,
no problem at all. I'm forty seven and loving this
phase of my life and completely at ease with myself.
So once said, outside of a work setting, I don't
consider disclosing my age as taboo.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I find that really interesting about the work. Isn't it
funny how one day you're the youngest person in the office,
and the next day you look up and you're the
oldest person in the office.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
That's how I got my nickname because I was the
youngest kid in the office, Hubby ten years old. I
was on the radio and people said, you're a baby,
You're a cubby, and that became my nickname. And look
at you now, fifty three cubby or sometimes I'm chubby
depending on the typo on the text messages, or you know, krabby, Hey,
crab rabby, you getting there.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's funny.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
But so I'm fifty three. There you go. I'm fine
with itty three. It's funny because I know your age
because we're the same year.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Yeah, we're very close.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
And I'm June first, and don't tell me you're July
twenty eighth or twenty nine seven, twenty seventh birthday? All right, right?
Producer Kristen, how cool are you with your age disclosure.
I'm pretty cool. I'm thirty seven. Thirty seven, yeah, December
twenty ninth.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Oh, it's my birthday right around Christine. Yes, she's twenty six.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
So I respect people that don't give out their age,
but I also, you know, you know it, don't see
a big deal.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
You know. What's an interesting thing though, I have noticed
of getting older maybe and I don't know if it's
true for women, but it's definitely true for women. I
think you get past a certain age and first of all,
you stop not that you want them, but you stop
getting like looks in general. But also you get to
a certain age, and if you're with people who are
in their twenties, I feel like if they know my age,
(13:04):
they immediately turn off, like I'm their mother's age, and
so they kind of like like we don't have anything
in common. But the older you get, you're still as
stupid as you were when you were younger. You just
have more experience. That's it, right, you know. I think
that's the one thing you don't know about getting when
you're younger, that older people just have more creaks, but
they're just as dumb. You know.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I think that's why women to have that wall up there.
You'll I think you'll notice more women holding back their
age as opposed to men. That's how I feel at
least and what I've seen, what I've experienced, especially in
what we do.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Yeah, you know there's a thing there for sure.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
So give us a text right now, like AOL back
in the nineties, age sex location.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Don't enter that chat room.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Give us a text at four four three six three
if you're comfortable, tell us your age seriously, all right?
Or what are your thoughts about if you don't give
your age and why you don't? Yeah, all right, we're
coming right back with a crazy first date more.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Cubby and Christine in the morning. Does one six seven
light up out? It's coming in good Seine's crazy first date.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Hey, Carrie, tell us about your crazy first date. And
how did you meet this particular person?
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Yeah, so I met this person just through an app,
so we'd never met in person before this. Okay, And
so we met up at a bar and we go
in and we sit down, and then I look up
and one of my ex boyfriends happens to be sitting
like three feet from us.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Is it a fresh ex or like a long time
ago X.
Speaker 5 (14:34):
It was a fresh X. Okay, So fortunately this person
I'm on, you know, pretty good terms with it. He
came over starts talking to me, and I'm like, oh god, no,
I don't talk. So we talk her a minute. He leaves,
and the guy I'm on the date was, It's like, oh, oh,
my ex, and you know, we kind of laugh it off,
kind offward whatever. A little bit later, I go to
the bathroom, I'm walking past the bar, and then another
(14:56):
one of my ex boyfriends about the bar.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Wow, kidding me.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
I know, what are the odds of this? This is
just bizarre. And so that one I'm all of such
good terms with, so that we kind of had just
a little bit of an awkward interaction, and you know,
I go back and guys like, oh, who were you
talking to him? And go another ex boyfriend and maybe
I should have just lied and made it less weird,
but I didn't. And then a security guard is in
(15:22):
there doing rounds and it's my high school boyfriend. You
are kidding me.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
I'm actually I'm fearful of you turning around right now
who you're going to run into.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
Well, so I'm just like you know what, I think
this is a sign we need to get out of here.
And it's just it's probably the most awkward date I
have ever been on. I'm like, this guy probably thinks
I've dated half the city. I did not hear from
him again, Who is just weird?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Was it like a local bar that you always go
to or you went to when you were younger? Because
I have those around, Kubby, I'm sure you know if
you went home too, you would go to a local bar,
you'd see all your friends.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Correct, Yeah, everyone has that one water right.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
Yeah, it's not even really that kind of a situation.
It was just the weirdest coincidence of all time.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Honestly, what you failed to mention is the bar was
called X's. Yeah, should have been Yeah, well, what's up
with your current status right now?
Speaker 5 (16:17):
So that actually happened like five years ago. I am
married now to someone else. I've never heard of that
guy again, and I don't blame him that. I'm sure
he is probably recounting that story to people to this day, like,
oh my gosh, this girl's dated everyone.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
We gave Carrie something for sharing her crazy first date,
and you know what, we have a bonus today If

what you all three of yours?
Speaker 3 (18:35):
I have like a little music note thing on one ankle.
I have a celebrity autograph on another ankle on the
other ankle. And then at eighteen, I got a tattoo
as well on my hip and I didn't like it,
so I covered it up. And that's a bunch of roses.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
So interesting is that the first one?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
That would have been the first one?
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Right?
Speaker 2 (18:52):
How long did it take for your mother to find out?
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Boy, well I came home. This is a funny story.
Actually I got the tattoo with an next.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Boyfriend, uh huh.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
And I went home and I said, Mom, I gotta
tell you something. She goes, oh my god, you're pregnant.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, I got
a tattoo.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
She was like, all right, I'll play you my favorite tattoo.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Oh, mister arc.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Yeah, I'm going back in time with Fantasy Island. On
that with tattoo, I knew where
Speaker 2 (19:26):
That was going.
Thank you for having us on. Good morning, I'm Cobby
(00:01):
with Nina in for the vacation in Christine Naggy. We
got producer Kristen. LIGHTFM is on on this big real
ID day. Throw out the fake IDs, get at your
real IDs. No, it gott be thinking, you know, like
we're on the air at a time where people are
going to the airport right now. Sure, and you might
be on the shuttle bus at the Newark off site
parking and going to the There's one shuttle bus company
(00:23):
that has light FM on all the time, and you
might be on that bus right now. Everyone to your terminal.
Good morning, Hi there, do you have the real ID?
Are you prepared? So if you don't have that little
star on your license, because today's the day you have
to have it, Yeah, they will still let you fly.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Right, they will still let you fly for now, that's
the quote from Homeland Security. However, they're gonna hold you
up a little bit. They say you might have to
do additional steps, which probably means additional screening. If you
have your passport. There's certain things like a passport card
or a passport you can use that in lieu of
a real ID for the foreseeable future.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Yeah, if you have a passport and the passport's brand
new and you have ten years left on it, you
can use that for ten years if you want to
be fair.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
They did say, I don't know about New York State,
but I saw the other day New Jersey has the
lowest compliance with real id's. It's only like thirty percent
of people in New Jersey have them, so lots of
people do not have these things. And yeah, I don't
have one.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Now what does that mean?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Eris because we don't care. Yeah, we'll figure it out.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Yeah, well, so my license expires anyway at the end
of May.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Oh do you have a real idea yet?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
I don't, but they told me, Well, the mail said
I could actually get it while I renew my shore license. Yeah,
because did you. I didn't know that every now and
then you can't renew your license online. Yes, you can
do it every time. But this one came in the
mail and it said you must go to a DMV
to get this one done. Maybe it's been what too long?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
I think maybe your face changes or something, right.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Right, you know, And speaking of traveling, you're telling me
there's like travel deals out there, so check with your
favorite airline.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Well, remember, I think these are specific to Newark Airport.
I do not know about JFKN Laguardi. But because Newark
Airport is having so many issues, there is a deal
right now, a big United domestic sale out of Newark
Airport to NonStop flights around the country from Arch to
May to Atlanta to Austin to Chicago, to Cincinnati to Columbus.
All these flights are under two hundred bucks. You can
(02:07):
go to going dot com, which is kind of like
a flight deal site, and they have a ton of
cheap flights, probably because people are a little nervous to fly.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Well. Yeah, and Newark's a hot mess right now.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Yeah, if you want to put up with a hot
mess for lesson two hundred bucks, there you go.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah. And today's National Tourism Day, a good day to
book a trip.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
We're coming right back with three pretty cool things right
here at LANTFM.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Covey and Christine in the morning more next on one
o six point seven light FM's pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
It's three pretty cool things you need to know.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Hey, they always say it's a great thing if you
can be an organ donor, you know. Yeah, I am
not full disclosure. I've been thinking about it, are you.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I think I mean to be, but it's not on
my driver's lessons now, right, Kristen, No.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I know it's important. I know there's a weight list.
But did you know that the Pope cannot be an
organ donor?
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Oh? Why?
Speaker 1 (02:56):
The Catholic Church views the pope's body and therefore his
organs as belonging to the church, preventing him from being
an organ donor. Any pope and the future pope, whoever
the new Pope is in a few days, cannot be
an organ donor.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
That seems like a mistake, but he does have to
have real id Oh sure of course?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Or were you gonna say, Christina?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
No, I find that interesting.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
I'm surprised. I didn't know that. Yes, as a as
a Catholic, but it makes sense.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
It does well.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
But if they did it, it would be such an
encouragement for all the people because the wait list is
years and years and years long.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
True.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Do you know? Maybe I think it would be useful.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
The new Pope can change that and become an organd doze. Well,
we'll see, all right, what do you have, Nina?
Speaker 2 (03:34):
The cliche happy wife, happy life actually true?
Speaker 1 (03:39):
You're preaching to the choir man.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
In a study involving couples married for four decades, it
was found that when the wife was happier, it holds
greater weight than her spouse when it comes to maintaining
a harmonious relationship. You make the ladies happy, they are
nicer to you and you will live longer.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah. Yeah, and you can relate and Christian can relate.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, sure can, Yeah, absolutely, all.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Right, producer, Kristin, what do you have is your cool thing?
Speaker 3 (04:03):
We are living through NBA history right now. So the
conference semifinals are happening as we speak, and it's the
first time in NBA history that all four road teams
won game one of the divisional conference semifinals in the
same season.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
So the Knicks beat the Celtics in Boston, the Pacers
beat the Cavaliers in Cleveland, the Nuggets beat the Thunder
in Denver, and the Warriors beat the Timberwolves in Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
That's impressive.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Yea going home sad?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Yeah like me? Yeah, you're you're a Boston Celtics fan, Kristin.
And they play tonight up at the TD Garden. Yeah,
let's go nixt Sorry.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Kristin more Cobby and Christine and the great music variety
you expect next on light at them.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Well, we did the Whitney Houston Challenge and I think, well,
you guys nailed it. Me not so much. It's Cubby,
Nina del Rio, we got producer Kristen and light FMA
is on good our Instagram page and is it the
first video up there? Is it's not under the story,
is it? But it's like up there it's a real
correct that's correct. Go to one oh six seven light
FM on Instagram and check out what me and Nina
(05:08):
and Kristen did yesterday. And if you could, in a nutshell,
even though I could do it, produce a christin. How
would you describe the Whitney Houston Challenge? So what's the
name of the song? I Will Always love You?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Okay, I will always love you.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
It's the part where I guess it's right before that
powerful part of the chorus comes in, but there's like
a couple seconds of silence. So the whole point is
that you have to try to hit the beat exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And it's an odd beat, like it's hard to time
out even if you tap your foot it's a little
bit strange. Right, So there's been a challenge online and
two of us did it.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, well all three of us did it, but you
two nailed it. Yeah, but you could do it, and
we had two chances though, yes, it takes us a
little bit, so there is that. But I had two
chances and I didn't do very well. You did worse
the second time. I was overthinking it. I was overthinking
it really hard. It really is so like basically, here's
what you'll hear, and people try to match the beat
(06:03):
right on target.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Here.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
You just did it well because I could see the file.
I have a computer here that tells me when it's
gonna come in. But yeah, so people all over social media.
You don't need a drum. We had a drum, but
you could do it with a like a spoon and
a pan. Yeah, you can do it at home. But
it's been viral and we finally got a chance to
do it, and I think it's pretty pretty funny. And
(06:34):
again I saw you, by the way, doing the the count.
You're kind of like doing the four count.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, but I think it's like five. It's be honest,
it's on the upbeat of five.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
So that's the trick without looking well, I can see
the file here.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Try it, Try it again.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Yeah, put your hand in the air. Now, when does
the beat come in? She got it.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
I was like half a I was a little I
don't know what I was, but I wasn't on it.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, the Whitney Houston Channel. Okay. Interesting.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Check it out on Instagram one six seven Light FM
on Instagram.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
More Covey and Christine and the great music variety you
expect next on Light at.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Them Hello there Covey with Nina and for Christine, producer Christen.
The toughest job in America, according to this nationwide survey,
A firefighter at number one. I get it totally. I mean,
but you could argue a lot of these others could
be number one, like construction worker at number two. Job
couldn't do it? Construction worker, you lose a thumb. Yeah,
(07:36):
Military number three, certainly, doctor number four, that's mental, police
officer number five, that's stressful, number six, e M t
or paramedic number seven.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
An astronaut, some astronauts certain ones.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
Yeah, Michail King, Katie Perry, No, no, no again. Toughest
jobs in America farmer.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Farmer's very hard and very stressful.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Now, what is it about being a farmer that's so hard?
I know it's hard. Is it the hour of the weather.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
I think the weather is a lot of it, and
I think the stress of it.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Okay, yeah, this has been in the news at number
nine air traffic controller. Very suctressful. Yeah, a lot of
lives at stake, right. Number ten is an oil work.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
You have to work on one of those rigs out
there in the ocean.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
You know what I always heard was the toughest and
it's not on here. And they said the deadliest is
a lagger, a logger, you know how you're out there,
like you have to climb the trees, trees falling, you're
getting the river with the you'd have to be on
the river, and like they said, that was the biggest
cause of death or the most likely cause of death.
And work when you have to, you know, put the
logs on the river and they float them down or
maybe fall in between and get crushed. Ooh yeah, not
(08:41):
that we have a lot of loggers around here, but
all right, I got always sticks in my head.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Number eleven is a nurse. Number twelve is a roofer.
Thirteen is an electrician. They must get electrocuted all the time.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Oh my god, imagine their fingers.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Even to me, even the smartest electrician must get electrocuted
all the time. Of course, it's so many wires. Let's
get to the bottom here. Home builder number fourteen, an
engineer number fifteen, a pilot number sixteen, a teacher number seventeen.
Shout out to all the teachers. I know your job
is very hard, but also very rewarding. Lawyer eighteen, carpenter
(09:13):
number nineteen, and that's a woodworker or a cabinet maker
as well. And finally at number twenty, a drywall or
plaster installer.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
There's a guy on Instagram. I wish I could remember
his name who does drywall, and he's like a magician
with the drywall, you know, putting it up so quickly
and cutting it and could put the whole sheet up
like it's a whole skill set. Notice how most of
these a lot of these have to do with construction.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Does anything here surprise you though? On the list, it
all makes sense to me.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Lawyer's tough in what way? Like mentally, like you hate
your client and you got to defend them. Yeah, is
that what that is about?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Well, number, what number was lawyer? Oh, you're right, it's
number eighteen, so it's near the bottom of the top twenty.
But still, I guess you just have to have all
your facts, right man, You got to like have everything.
Sleepless nights, sleepless night.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
It's a lot of a lot of work, a lot
of reading. But ah, you know, kristin your thought, I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
I think there's certain I guess the order, you know,
I would think that you know, a policeman, maybe police officer.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't know. Was it higher?
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Well, shout shout out to your dad, by the way, Oh.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Thank you. My dad's retired. Yeah, my brother is too.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Yeah cool, Yeah, dad served for a long time.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And what area did they work in?
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Well, my dad was he retired detective for the Port
Authority okay, and my brother now works for Oh he changed.
He was NYPD, now he is Rockland County Okay, he's
in rock County.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Name and badge number police, Yeah, No, I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
I don't know all that.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
You know, technically, I think by law they have to
give their name and badge number if you ask, right.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Maybe, like if you don't like, like you're giving me
a ticket? Why I need your name and badge number?
That kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Or you can just go up to a police officer
at random.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Like if they're having lunch, well don't they wear it?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
They do wear it.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
It's like Smither's four or five eight nine.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
But if you can't read it. I think by law
they have to say their name and badge number. They
can't go why do you want it?
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Like?
Speaker 1 (11:01):
They can't do that. They have to say it. Correct
me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
At four four someone will more Covey and Christine and
the great music variety you expect next on light F them.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
One on six point seven light FM, Cubby and Nina
del Rio and for the Vacation in Christine Nagy producer Kristen.
Another fun thing that Reddit did. People are chiming in
on how comfortable they are disclosing their age, and most
people are kind of comfortable with it. It just depends
those variables involved.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Well, the people who responded to this survey are comfortable.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Very true. A lot of them said they're before twenty five.
They're very comfortable. After twenty five, maybe they become a
little less comfortable, which I get but some people say,
no problem at all. I'm forty seven and loving this
phase of my life and completely at ease with myself.
So once said, outside of a work setting, I don't
consider disclosing my age as taboo.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I find that really interesting about the work. Isn't it
funny how one day you're the youngest person in the office,
and the next day you look up and you're the
oldest person in the office.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
That's how I got my nickname because I was the
youngest kid in the office, Hubby ten years old. I
was on the radio and people said, you're a baby,
You're a cubby, and that became my nickname. And look
at you now, fifty three cubby or sometimes I'm chubby
depending on the typo on the text messages, or you know, krabby, Hey,
crab rabby, you getting there.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's funny.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
But so I'm fifty three. There you go. I'm fine
with itty three. It's funny because I know your age
because we're the same year.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Yeah, we're very close.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
And I'm June first, and don't tell me you're July
twenty eighth or twenty nine seven, twenty seventh birthday? All right, right?
Producer Kristen, how cool are you with your age disclosure.
I'm pretty cool. I'm thirty seven. Thirty seven, yeah, December
twenty ninth.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Oh, it's my birthday right around Christine. Yes, she's twenty six.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
So I respect people that don't give out their age,
but I also, you know, you know it, don't see
a big deal.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
You know. What's an interesting thing though, I have noticed
of getting older maybe and I don't know if it's
true for women, but it's definitely true for women. I
think you get past a certain age and first of all,
you stop not that you want them, but you stop
getting like looks in general. But also you get to
a certain age, and if you're with people who are
in their twenties, I feel like if they know my age,
(13:04):
they immediately turn off, like I'm their mother's age, and
so they kind of like like we don't have anything
in common. But the older you get, you're still as
stupid as you were when you were younger. You just
have more experience. That's it, right, you know. I think
that's the one thing you don't know about getting when
you're younger, that older people just have more creaks, but
they're just as dumb. You know.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
I think that's why women to have that wall up there.
You'll I think you'll notice more women holding back their
age as opposed to men. That's how I feel at
least and what I've seen, what I've experienced, especially in
what we do.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Yeah, you know there's a thing there for sure.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
So give us a text right now, like AOL back
in the nineties, age sex location.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Don't enter that chat room.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Give us a text at four four three six three
if you're comfortable, tell us your age seriously, all right?
Or what are your thoughts about if you don't give
your age and why you don't? Yeah, all right, we're
coming right back with a crazy first date more.
Speaker 4 (13:57):
Cubby and Christine in the morning. Does one six seven
light up out? It's coming in good Seine's crazy first date.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Hey, Carrie, tell us about your crazy first date. And
how did you meet this particular person?
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Yeah, so I met this person just through an app,
so we'd never met in person before this. Okay, And
so we met up at a bar and we go
in and we sit down, and then I look up
and one of my ex boyfriends happens to be sitting
like three feet from us.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Is it a fresh ex or like a long time
ago X.
Speaker 5 (14:34):
It was a fresh X. Okay, So fortunately this person
I'm on, you know, pretty good terms with it. He
came over starts talking to me, and I'm like, oh god, no,
I don't talk. So we talk her a minute. He leaves,
and the guy I'm on the date was, It's like, oh, oh,
my ex, and you know, we kind of laugh it off,
kind offward whatever. A little bit later, I go to
the bathroom, I'm walking past the bar, and then another
(14:56):
one of my ex boyfriends about the bar.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Wow, kidding me.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
I know, what are the odds of this? This is
just bizarre. And so that one I'm all of such
good terms with, so that we kind of had just
a little bit of an awkward interaction, and you know,
I go back and guys like, oh, who were you
talking to him? And go another ex boyfriend and maybe
I should have just lied and made it less weird,
but I didn't. And then a security guard is in
(15:22):
there doing rounds and it's my high school boyfriend. You
are kidding me.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
I'm actually I'm fearful of you turning around right now
who you're going to run into.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
Well, so I'm just like you know what, I think
this is a sign we need to get out of here.
And it's just it's probably the most awkward date I
have ever been on. I'm like, this guy probably thinks
I've dated half the city. I did not hear from
him again, Who is just weird?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Was it like a local bar that you always go
to or you went to when you were younger? Because
I have those around, Kubby, I'm sure you know if
you went home too, you would go to a local bar,
you'd see all your friends.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Correct, Yeah, everyone has that one water right.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
Yeah, it's not even really that kind of a situation.
It was just the weirdest coincidence of all time.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Honestly, what you failed to mention is the bar was
called X's. Yeah, should have been Yeah, well, what's up
with your current status right now?
Speaker 5 (16:17):
So that actually happened like five years ago. I am
married now to someone else. I've never heard of that
guy again, and I don't blame him that. I'm sure
he is probably recounting that story to people to this day, like,
oh my gosh, this girl's dated everyone.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
We gave Carrie something for sharing her crazy first date,
and you know what, we have a bonus today If

Yes we did.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
How many tattoos do you have? If any? Nina del Rio?
Speaker 2 (18:05):
One?
Speaker 1 (18:05):
You have one?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah? Where is it on my hip?
Speaker 1 (18:08):
Okay, I'll show.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
You later another day.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
And how about you, Kristen?
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I have three?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Oh how do you have zero?
Speaker 2 (18:16):
See this works?
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I'm not against it, just.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Never never, never got around too.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yeah. Can I ask you what your tattoo is? Nina?
Speaker 2 (18:22):
It's a yin yang. I got it when I was eighteen. Oh,
all right, at a Metallica show of all things. Well,
I know what I know?
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Yeah, surprising that is cool. Yeah, how about you, Kristin
what you all three of yours?
Speaker 3 (18:35):
I have like a little music note thing on one ankle.
I have a celebrity autograph on another ankle on the
other ankle. And then at eighteen, I got a tattoo
as well on my hip and I didn't like it,
so I covered it up. And that's a bunch of roses.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
So interesting is that the first one?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
That would have been the first one?
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Right?
Speaker 2 (18:52):
How long did it take for your mother to find out?
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Boy, well I came home. This is a funny story.
Actually I got the tattoo with an next.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Boyfriend, uh huh.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
And I went home and I said, Mom, I gotta
tell you something. She goes, oh my god, you're pregnant.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, I got
a tattoo.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
She was like, all right, I'll play you my favorite tattoo.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Oh, mister arc.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Yeah, I'm going back in time with Fantasy Island. On
