Speaker 1 (00:00):
Not gonna lie. I'm kind of nervous. It's light and
been kuby and Christine.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Christine told me while that song was playing, I want
to ask you a question on the air, and it's
kind of intimate. I'm like, where are you going here?
But go ahead. I don't know what you're gonna ask.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
I think this is important to know. Have you been
buying new underwear lately?

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Well? Yes, I have?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Actually you have? I have in the last eight months.
Maybe it was early this year. Yeah, my wife bought
it for me.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
But yes, what is this? What does this correlate to?

Speaker 3 (00:30):
Uh, the economy? We can go by how many pairs
of underwear you buy. It is predicting the economy?

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 3 (00:37):
Nope. Economists say they see a trend when men's underwear
sales drop.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Not men's underwear drop, We're going just sales drop.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
We're going through a change in the economy, and usually
not for the better. Very interesting men's get buying new
underwear when we're going through a tough time a recession,
if you will, say, we're going through recession. But they
did point back to the two thousand and eight recession,
and you guys were hanging on to like, holy underwear,
you really? Yeah, the sales went down.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Underwear sales and eight they weren't like hot, they were
not at all interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
They dropped off completely. They said, underwear sales easy to
track and aren't affected by style trends like other clothes are,
so they kind of keep a watch on that.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
So you better start saving money.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
If I'm going commando, we need the details.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Do we need to in your thoughts on this story
that Christine has brought up, I mean sounds accurate. I
think so, right. I mean, we probably buy them more
often than many you anyways, it.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Was just thinking we're in charge of the underwear though,
all exactly. And Eric his birthday was May twenty third,
so he just got some new underway.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Why is the guys that it's controlling the economy here,
that that decides the economy, But the women they underwear saved.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
Maybe that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yeah, that's that's very interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
They should look at us. Maybe the sales are going
down because you guys just aren't buying them anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
It's that's a good point. Actually, that's a very good point.
All right, But that's an interesting story.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
So all right, Monitor underwear sales men's underwear sales in particular,
because that could determine where we're going as an

Speaker 3 (02:12):
Economy, because you guys are trying to save money, all right,
