Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
We were talking about this off the air. What's a
house rule you thought was annoying when you were a kid,
but now you swear by it. It's one of six
point seven light FM Cubby Nina and for Christine and
producer Christen. So let me go to your house. Let
me go into Nina do Rio's house. Right now, I
open the door. Is there a rule that you'll let
me know that you.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Are are a stickler about the shoes? Okay?

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Us two, no outdoor shoes in the house.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
And as a kid, did your mom and dad enforce
that because my mom and dad never enforced that as
a kid.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
No, we only have started doing that. I don't know,
like twenty years ago. Maybe not when I was a kid.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Right right, Well, No, when I was a kid, I'd
come in from outside when my ses on.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
My mom never said anything.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
I don't feel like I wore shoes a lot. I
think it was barefoot a lot of my childhood, like
dirty feet, running in the street.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
All summer long. Totally. Yeah, mosquito bites everywhere with house.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
Phones, you disappeared. That was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
So the shoes for you? Yeah, shoes for me.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Now as I've gotten older, I'm all about shoes off
right when you walk in the house.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
And how about you, Kristin, no shoes.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
In the house. Even growing up, that was like the
number one rule in my house.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Good for you.

Speaker 4 (01:03):
Yeah, my parents were very but I also and this
is something I hated doing as a kid. But now
I tell my kids, especially my son when he comes
home from school, I don't like street clothes on the bed.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
That makes sense, that's good, especially in the New York
City area.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
That's good.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Right, Or if you sat down in the subway, you
don't want to sit on the bed.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
I try to keep my subway clothes off, the couch
off the bed.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Right right, right, it's gross. What is your opinion is this?

Speaker 1 (01:27):
I'm reading here on Reddit too about this topic. Is
this kind of old school? Or is this when you
walk into someone's house and they say, yeah, look around,
can you go in their bedroom? I haven't or should
you ask permission before you walk in that part of
the house.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
I don't even take people upstairs. I find it weird
when you're in like someone takes you on a tour
and they take you in like the master bedroom.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Yeah, what if they want a tour? What do you
do I.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
Don't take them up there out their business, but do
they ask?

Speaker 4 (01:54):
I don't know. I think if it's like if you
have a new home, right, don't offer then because I
think people expect to see every room if you're giving
them a tour, So I wouldn't even.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Offer a tour.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Safety from clean it upstairs.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
That's true, that's the main race, totally.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Uh well, hit us up at four four, three, six three.
Give us a house rule that you thought, maybe as
a kid, was kind of annoying, but now you swear
by it as an adult.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
It's light FM
