Speaker 1 (00:00):
One six point seven. It is Jack and Nina with
you on a Friday morning. Actually, good Friday, Happy, good Friday.
If you have the day off, nice to be with you, Jack,
It's nice to be here. It's nice to be off. Yeah,
we like the day off. How about Easter Monday as well?
Would you like a real official four day weekend?

Speaker 2 (00:17):
You know, I think more days off is always a
good thing.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
It's hard to run a business week. I'll be honest.
It's hard if you run a business.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
It is because sometimes you find yourself working seven days
a week.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
But here's the thing. There are two there are two
Republican lawmakers now who are proposing an Easter Monday. They
make the point that the only two month gap in
the federal holiday calendar is April to May. And if
you had an Easter Monday, you would have, you know,
a three day weekend or a four day weekend if
you take Good Friday. I don't mind that one.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
No, I don't mind it either. Nope, I think it
has a chance to go better than Super Bowl Monday.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yeah, tell something about super Bowl Monday slaps me of
like laziness and sloth. But this actually so which I like.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
I know I'm on both of those.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
No I haven't. I well you've been. I mentioned it again.
I'm mentioning it on air. Let me just finish my sentence.
When I was a kid, once in my Easter basket,
my mother gave us all lingerie. I was probably like twelve,
and it was too big for me, and I was like.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
What is this? This is so weird.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
But I can't tell you how many times, as an
adult I think about that. You know what probably happened.
My mother was probably in her late thirties, forties. She
probably bought some Laungerie for herself and felt guilty and
then bought some us for us too. That's my thought.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
But you were twelve.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
I was twelve.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Time to be a woman. But I don't think that.
