of culture, and she is living in Maryland's capital of culture,
Calvert County.

Now, the family that she is living with. What is
the mom's name, Danielle Higginbotham. Great name, sounds fictitious, but
great name. So anyway, the yeah, there she is there,
she is.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
So she's from.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Italy and she came over and she is she has
spent this year her seat. Well it's not her senior year,
it's the school. So here's here's the weird thing. So
she is where she's from in in in Hactua they
are do you.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Think she knows who Hacktua is? Yes, absolutely, because she's international.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
The high school in Italy is five years, so this
is her fourth year. So she's graduating at is it
Huntington High School? She's graduating from Huntington High School? And
then we'll go back like she's going to walk with
the class, and then she'll go back and then do
her fifth year back in Italy in Italy and then
(03:20):
graduate there.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Culture shock A little bit, Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
But dude, how so I was reading all about her
and coming over here, she's got to be like, Wow,
this is not what I expected.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Calvert the.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
How does that work?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
When you apply from overseas? Are you randomly assigned or
like a counsel?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
So do you get do you student?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Do you know?
Speaker 5 (03:46):
No?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
If you're her and you're living in Italy, do you
want to study in the United States? Do you apply
for a state? Do you apply for A good question?
I don't know how broad could you be placed?
Speaker 1 (03:59):
That's a great question because when I was reading Krista,
will you see if you can find the people who
have a little bit of a more than I do,
a little bit more knowledge in the UH in the
FORID exchange program. Is that what it's called student Exchange.
My head'still a little love stuffy. Yeah, yeah, the like
fordn Exchange Program.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Are you saying have they changed the name.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
The I don't know what it's called the eight six
six to Elliott eight six six two three five five
four six eight Because I would assume here if you were,
if you were, if you were to apply to go overseas,
you would pick what country You're like, oh, I want
to go to France or but do you get more
specific than that? Do you say you want to go
to Paris? Do you say you want to go to
(04:40):
another city in France? Do you say you want city?
Do you say you want country?
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Like?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Was this girl sitting in Italy and was like, I'm
tired of like opera and culture. I'm going to Calvert County.
Stop the There's no way I can promise you. There's
no way she knows what Calvert County is in Italy. There. Now,
the other thing that I thought was interesting, and I
don't know if anybody knows the Higginbotham family.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
They said.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
That when oh, here we go, that when the Higginbothams
were going through a list of people that they wanted,
almost like they were shopping for a foreign exchange student.
So did she write down Maryland or did she just
write down US and you.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Get what you get.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
That's what I asked, And that somebody who is part
of the program goes shopping and goes, I want this one,
and then they go back to her and they're like, hey,
good luck or good news, you're going to Calvert County.
This girl could have been thinking, I bet Beverly Hills
is going to be awesome.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Now, May I ask about the photo here of her? Yes,
she is clearly in a cheerleader's outfit. Absolutely, girl a
part of the team.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
This girl has taken full advantage of her time in
Calvert County. She and she said that you should the yeah,
oh yeah, but also think the family's got to be
supportive of it. Also, the one that you're staying with.
So things that they don't have in Mantua or Mantua
(06:21):
that they do have here. They don't have cheerleading overseas,
or at least in Italy. So she was like, I
joined the uh, I joined the cheerleading team. Lacrosse. I
didn't know this. Lacrosse is non existent overseas, non existent.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
She had never even heard of it.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
She's played lacrosse for Huntington High School. She was able
to walk onto the team, which is one of two things.
Either like they were like, this is great and you
can be a part of the team and learn it.
Or and I mean this with no disrespect to anybody
on that team, they suck that somebody who never even
heard of the sport is a walk on senior varsity player.
(07:01):
So and I mean listen, if she's doing cheerleading in lacrosse,
she's obviously pretty good physically.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
One, we're talking Calvert lacrosse. Calvert lacrosse cross. We suck,
Elliott Tyler. The girl has never even seen a lacrosse stick.

Speaker 8 (11:08):
Yeah, So my brother was an exchange student in high school,
went to Denmark. My wife is from Spain. She came
to the States as an exchange student in high school.
And for the large part, people have no idea what
they're walking into. You're like, hey, I want to go
to the States, that'd be great. It's all the same, right,
it's totally crueless. And you want to talk about culture shock.
I mean my wife's high school had a bar in
(11:28):
it where the kids could go and skip class and
have drinks, play cards inane.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
I mean, it's just.
Speaker 8 (11:35):
Yeah, yeah, it's totally different. And he talked about culture shock.
I mean, yeah, the lacrosse. They don't even know lacosse
was the native of a more American sport. They have
no idea what lacrosse is in Europe.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Hey, let me ask you this, when when your wife
came over from Espana? Where where did where was she
an exchange student? Like where where did? Where did she go?
Speaker 8 (11:55):
She went to Kansas City and she said the first
time the kids had a party. She went there and
she'd been kind of you know, she was with a
French girl, two of them to exchange students in the
same house. And they're really excited about going to the
first party because they were thinking, oh, you know, there'd
be some beers, some boys. And she said she got
there in those Coca cola and chips and she got
really depressed.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
This a place that sucks. Hey, did she did she
choose Kansas City or did they just send her to
Kansas City?
Speaker 9 (12:25):
Well you do.
Speaker 8 (12:25):
You know, you get an option of cities and they're like, oh,
Kansas City. But they don't know anything, right, It's like
pick any town in France, pick any town in Spain,
and you're gonna says, sure it, it's Spain.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
It's the States.
Speaker 8 (12:37):
You know, it's all the same, right.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
I promise you, Thank you, sir, thank you. I promise you.
There is no way that this very nice young lady.
And again, no disrespect. There's no way. She was sitting there.
It was like, no, Galver County is for me. That
would be perfect, though.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
I bet she sounds nothing like that.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yeah, well, no, voicesn't as deep, no, it says here.

I was able to take take multiple AP classes, including
AP English. I took AP classes, but this she took AP, government,
pre calculus, biology, photography, theater.
Speaker 1 (13:21):

Speaker 3 (13:25):
Okay, Well, first of all, this one's a tryhard.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Also is because she's smart. The I take it to
AP Gove. I figured the AP. By the way, it's
AP and Calvert. Listen, I know they're lacrosse the MESSAKA.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
It's the same standards as the college board puts for it.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
The not if you're an exchange student. Okay, okay.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
According to her, it's been a dream come true.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Oh I bet, I bet. Listen. None, neither of my.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Kids have any interest in like study abroad or anything
like that.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
I was never exposed to it. I know, I never went.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I had friends. I didn't even have friends that went
study abroad. I didn't know anybody heard either.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
No, she said, the language is the culture. The travel
had her determined to pursue this opportunity.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Wait of being a foreign exchange student or specifically Calvert County.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
She doesn't say, we don't know yet.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Oh I dream of the lights over all of Los
Angeles in the beach.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
So she applied in February twenty twenty two with the
ass the American Scandinavian student exchange. I'm not familiar with
that now.
Speaker 7 (14:38):

Hi Elliet in the morning. Yeah, Hi, who's this.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Junie?
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Yes? What can I do for you? Were you an
exchange student or have you hosted?
Speaker 10 (15:00):
I was in a stage sent during that summer and
was able to live with a family just outside of
Paris and a vacation down in the Mediterranean, so it
was really cool.
Speaker 8 (15:16):
I was on the beach every day, you know, had.
Speaker 10 (15:20):
A great time and stayed with a French family and
they had two daughters and that were younger, so I
was hanging around with older kids and just having a blast.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Hey, were you, like, did you play any like did
you play any sports for your school or were you
in cheerleading for your school or anything? The one in France,
Like did you do any of that?

Oh no, no, no, It during the summer, so everybody
was on vacation.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Oh I got you. Oh. I don't know if I
like the summer. One summer I want to hang out
with all my friends. I don't want to go over there,
like summer is summer is my off time?
Speaker 10 (15:58):
Well, you know, I want to meet French kids and
we hung out and had a great time on the beach.
And I had the plan that also was an exchange
student went to France as well, but just stuck on
a farm and he just pat it in.

Damn it. All right, very good, very good, Thank you, ma'am,
thank you.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yes, it is funny too, Like I can see it's
nowhere near Rome or the Vatican, but you yesterday were
wondering if it's just cool to be around the conclave.
Oh sure, and she's here.
Speaker 11 (16:40):
Now.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Granted she's not from just outside Rome. In fact, i'm
reading why she's from the capital of culture in Italy right.
It says it's the city's historic power and influence under
the Gonzaga family between thirteen twenty eight and seventeen oh
eight made it one of the most artistic hubs with
especially musical exploration of northern Italy and Italy as a whole.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Oh wow, by the way, that little that little thumbnail picture, Yeah,
that looks beautiful. Lose I is right on the water.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
That's actually Huntingtown. The no that is that is what
are we deciding Mantua Mantua haktua.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yes, Ellie, he got away from that. No, that that's
the closest thing I can get to it. That's also
deals with water a little bit. Where am I going?
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Line one? Hi, Jellie in the morning.
Speaker 11 (17:34):
Hi. I hosted a foreign exchange student for a year
two years ago.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Wait you hosted?
Speaker 8 (17:42):
You said?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Or you hosted a foreign exchange student?
Speaker 11 (17:46):
Yes, I hosted a kid from Spain.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
And when you when you chose him, do you go
through a catalog and pick out who you want?
Speaker 11 (17:57):
Basically? Yeah, but I haven't done. And we let my
son pick and it turned.
Speaker 12 (18:03):
Out to be a really great bet.
Speaker 11 (18:06):
And he is two weeks younger than my son.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Bro, Where do you Where do you live? Where do
you live?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Oh? Okay, so they I mean that that's I mean,
that's fine right, Like you may as well. That's a nice,
nice area. You're good to go, Like that's cool. Did
the kid like it? Like?
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Did he get really involved in everything?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (18:29):
My gosh, the kid loved this country. He loved I
mean he even loved going to the grocery store and
the orthodontics with my son. And he loved it so much.
He's coming back here for college, even though he has
like a free ride in Europe.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Where is he American University's far superior?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Where is he? Where is he going to college?
Speaker 11 (18:54):
Georgia Tech?
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Oh, you know what, good for him? Good for him,
great campus right in the middle of Atlanta. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Yeah, I still think.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
I still think it'd be awesome to have one for
as much dog fostering as we do. I would definitely
be like a student foster, like that would be awesome.
Speaker 11 (19:12):
So it is because you become like a Washington, DC
tourist again, but it's expensive because you want to expose
them to everything, and plus you're feeding a teenage boy.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Yeah right, I know that.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Well, they were talking about a thank you, ma'am, thank you.
They were talking about this Italian girl in Calvert County,
Like they took her to Disney, They took her to
Philadelphia so she could have a cheese steak.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
She went somewhere else. I can't remember where she went.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I think they took her to a bunch of like
cities that she would have preferred to have gone to.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
Oh, Atlanta, that's it. Yeah, she went to Atlanta.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
So they were like close your eyes and imagine like
where do you wish you would have gone?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
And will take you, We'll take you.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
It says that her home city is also very famous
for their sumptuous cuisine and their iconic menu ingredient is pumpkin. Oh,
so you've got the arts, You've got the restaurant scene.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Mama, I go to the Chipotle A lot.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
There is by that high school. There is a seven to.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Eleven great displace in the world.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
And you mentioned seeing the waterways near Mantoa.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
You do have the Peduxent. H you know what great
point in Calvert. The water is a little different, darker,
more murky, lots of how do you say, garbage floaters? Oh,
you think she's a three plus floater? Hi, Ellie in
the morning, Elates, Yeah, Hi, who's this? Hell?
Speaker 12 (21:03):
Yes, hey, Eliot, it's so Tony calling from the Eastern Shore.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Yes, sir, what can I do for you?
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (21:09):
I lived in Italy from twenty fifteen to twenty twenty two,
just outside of Matcha, and we've been approached here on
the Eastern shore.
Speaker 8 (21:15):
The bos So.
Speaker 12 (21:16):
I can to kind of tell you how that little
program works from my perspective, from what.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
I've learned wait, hold on one second. So so this
the town of Mantua.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
They you're mispronouncing it. They they approached you and asked
if you would host kids from over there.
Speaker 12 (21:31):
No, no, no, there's a program here in the States
that they said, Hey, here's a list of students, and
some were from Italy, from Spain, some from France and
things like that, and you can kind of pick one.
But from what I understand, they've all kind of enrolled.
Let's say one of the students wants to be a
marine biologist and they're enrolled in a summer program where
it puts them like kind of either a Calvert County
(21:52):
or over here on the eastern shore and put them
in the summer where they learn kayaking and sailing and
all about the bay and the estuaries.
Speaker 8 (21:58):
And things like that.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
So I can see.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
So maybe this girl was interested in like kind of
getting away from it all.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Could be Yeah, yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Hey is is Mantua? Is it is it nice? It
looks beautiful?
Speaker 12 (22:13):
Actually it is.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
There's a lot.
Speaker 12 (22:15):
So that's in the Lombardy Lombardi region, just south of Venezo,
which is where we live. We were about thirty miles
west of Venice, So it's nice. We've blown through there
a few times on our way down to Tuscany. But yeah,
there's a lot of really cool little towns like that
around there.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
If you went from there to Calvert County, would it
be culture shock?
Speaker 12 (22:36):
Absolutely? I mean I grew up here and we lived
there for seven years, and I've been back three years
now and I'm still experiencing reverse culture shock.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
It's ridiculous. Is not the same, dude, Hey, I appreciate
the I appreciate the phone call.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Thank you, my friend, thank you. Do you think she's
ever turned on the on the show? Why? Why wouldn't she? Hey?

Speaker 4 (23:15):
It's a weekend problem?
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Friday or Saturday?
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Remember we learned Chris got screwed when he was in
high school. They had her on Monday.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Oh that's right, Saturday.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
It is a Saturday. If it's early enough, I could
do it.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Oh my god, you are not requested to be there.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
You don't know what if the school calls today and
they were like, uh, hey, are you want to come Atua?
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Who's who's chaperoning?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
You can't say why because they don't want to be public.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
What is it? But what does it say? That's just
that their chaperone?
Speaker 4 (23:46):
Yes, Ashley writes on Facebook. We had a girl from
Spain for a year in Saint Mary's. She played lacrosse
right her parents?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
So what suck?
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Her parents came to visit.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Did they take her and move her into a hotel?
Speaker 4 (24:02):
They said America was just like the movies, So that
can be bad.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Like what you know, a vast a lot of differentis.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
She also was on the cheerleading squad. I don't understand
what your problem is with that.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It just looks bad when somebody comes in this girl's
she's immersing herself in the culture.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
I think it's awesome. I think it's great.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Wants to have like a traditional United States high school experience.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Let's pretend.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Let's pretend that you live in Calvert County and you
go to Huntington High School and Marley has been in
in in gymnastics and tumbling, and her dream is to
be on the cheerleading team, and you got cut for
the girl who was like, I never even a scene
of this. I can't do a somersault.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
I do wish someone could get to her and she
could call before school starts and you could hear that
this stereotypical, disgusting h impression you're doing is so far
from reality.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Oh you don't think that's how Italians talk.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
It's absolute in video games. Yes, when you're driving cars.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
So what do you think she sounds like Diane?
Speaker 4 (25:29):
No? I think a year here can do wonders to
your Well.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Of course, if I lived in Mantua for a year,
I would sound more Italian than I do now. Yes,
but I still talking like an is. She's still Italian. Listen.
I've gotten into lubers with people who have been in
the States for a long time, and I can still
tell that they're not from here.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
You probably point that out. Laurel had an exchange student
in ninety five from Germany. We still talk every single day,
every day. Oh my god, ninety five Germany.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Well, I can't keep going back and forth with all
the languages.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Nine Where am I going? Line five? I like it
that of Barbee song. Hi Ellie in the morning.
Speaker 6 (26:21):
Hi, good morning.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
Yes, what can I do for you?
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Hey?
Speaker 13 (26:28):
So we actually currently have an exchange student, do you really?
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (26:32):
And we actually are hosting again next year?
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Where where is Do do you have kids with your own?
Speaker 4 (26:39):
We do?
Speaker 6 (26:39):
We have four?
Speaker 3 (26:40):
You have four?
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Now? You got five?
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (26:42):
They? Hey what all boys?
Speaker 6 (26:44):
Currently?
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Wait? Is the exchange student a boy?
Speaker 8 (26:47):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Well I guess would they let you have four teenage
boys and then a girl? Oh?
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Yes, because we're hosting a girl.
Speaker 13 (26:56):
Well, we don't have teenage boys. We have little boys.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Oh okay, gotcha. Oh so you got a babysitter.
Speaker 6 (27:04):
So yes, and no, they're actually technically not allowed to babysit.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Okay, well they're probably also not allowed to smoke, not
allowed to drink.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
And I bet she's like DC better.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Than Maroney, that's PERRONI whatever the hey, So let me
ask you this.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Let me ask you this the where where's the kid from?
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (27:26):
So my current exchange is from Italy?
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:28):
From Italy? Where do you know where in Italy?
Speaker 13 (27:32):
He is from the northern part, So I think about
an hour from Milan.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
How's his English?
Speaker 6 (27:38):
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Now does he sound like Elliott when he talks?
Speaker 13 (27:43):
No, he actually lost a lot of his Italian accent
throughout the year. He's about to go home, but when
he got here the accent was really thick and his
English was not so good.
Speaker 6 (27:52):
But he's he's done.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Amazing where And now he's saying, y'all and he's from
you said, he's from just outside of Milaude. Where where?
Where are you calling me from?
Speaker 6 (28:02):
I'm calling you from Richmond, Virginia.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
And when he when he came over, did he know
he was going to Richmond? Or was he like?
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I love La.
Speaker 13 (28:14):
So with the company's they actually don't get to pick
unless they pay extra. So they can pick like New
York or Florida or something a state if they pay
it's a lot of money they paid to pick those places.
Most exchange students do not pay that, so they just
get they go wherever a host's.
Speaker 6 (28:32):
Family picks them.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
I got you you you picked this kid?
Speaker 9 (28:36):

Speaker 3 (28:36):
What made you? What?
Speaker 1 (28:37):
What stood out about him?
Speaker 8 (28:40):
So?
Speaker 13 (28:41):
My husband is actually a race car fabricator. He makes
race for parts and he, my exchange student, works with
his parents.
Speaker 6 (28:49):

Speaker 3 (31:56):
Hey, so yeah, I was I was reading the I
was reading the story.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
I saw the story on on you guys hosting Emma
for the year. I will say this, for as much
as we're screwing around, to be to be on the
lacrosse team, to be on the cheerleading team, to be
in all the ap classes, like, she has really jumped
in with both.
Speaker 6 (32:13):
Feet, both feet, and she is the most precious, sweet
human being that I've ever encountered. And now we have
a new family member.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
The well, I mean until she goes back.
Speaker 6 (32:25):
Well, she's only going back to get the rest of
her stuff to come back here. Oh wait, that's what
I tell myself.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Oh okay, she told the news. I go back of
her my scene the year.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
Hey is she she does? She leaves in about five weeks.
Oh wow, We're pretty devastated. But it's been the most
amazing experience that we've ever had. And she has loved
every moment, and we've loved every moment with her.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
And you picked her right.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
I was reading in the in the story where where
I guess your your your mom, or maybe it was
both your parents had hosted before.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Yeah, so when I was a kid, we hosted some
exchange from the same program. It's called Asse and my
husband and I were talking. We're like, hey, it would
be cool because we have a son he's six. So
we went through the list and got in contact with
him and started going through and found her and she
kind of just like stuck out. She she was her
(33:21):
article was super bubbly and we picked her and that
the rest history.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Hey can I.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
Can I ask you this and please take no offense?
The yeah, like when she got to Calvert County? Was
she like where where all the movie stars? I won
a Hollywood?
Speaker 15 (33:43):
But I think when she got to Calvert she was like,
oh crap, nowhere? But she but she ad justed really quick.
Like I think joining the cheer team immediately was really.
Speaker 6 (34:01):
Good for her. And you know, she's really smart and understanding.
So and we've traveled around like we've gone to Miami,
we've gone to Atlanta, We've gone to all the big cities.
So I think she's getten the full experience.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Hey, did she like what happens if?
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Like if and listen, you don't have to if you
don't want to, but like, did she do anything while
staying with you that she got reprimanded for?
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Were like you and your husband had to kind of
lay down the hammer.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
No, actually, we're really lucky. We've never I've never had
to like discipline her. I've had to tell her like
you need to call me and you get me a
little in advanced notice when I have to pick you up
from school. But that's it.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
She is.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
She makes good grades, she doesn't get in trouble. She
doesn't like go do like teenager stuff.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Right yeah, right, So like she doesn't call and go like,
ooh too much of me? You no come and get
me yad?
Speaker 6 (34:53):
No, Well no she doesn't. But I but I also
live by the rule like if you're going to go
to a party, like you need to just I rather
you be safe and call absolutely absolutely, and then then
you get in a car with anyone and there'll be
no judgment. Of course, that's just kind of my that's
just our rule. Period. So she hasn't she hasn't, but
(35:17):
she hasn't had.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
To call you.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
She hasn't had to call you for that.
Speaker 6 (35:20):
WHOA, I'm not gonna say I'm not gonna dime around.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Yeah no, but that you know what, but that actually,
I mean, listen, that's great, I get it. But at
least she's like they drink into Calvert County.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
You do what they do, But what.
Speaker 6 (35:34):
Else is starting to do with Calvert County?
Speaker 1 (35:36):
Go to that seven eleven? Well, you know what, good

Speaker 3 (35:57):
Is she? Is she going to prom? In ten days?
Speaker 6 (36:01):
She is going to prom? You know what? Like, I
gotta say this. The guys at Huntingtown High School are too,
I think, intimidated to talk to her. So she's going
with her girlfriends, right.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
That's okay? Are they intimidating because they know that she's
from Hawktua?
Speaker 3 (36:23):
All right? All right, very good, very good.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Well tell Ema, we said, I don't even know how
you say hi in Italy?
Speaker 3 (36:30):
You say hi.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
They understand that isn't how goodbye, it's both.
Speaker 6 (36:35):
Hello and goodbye. Yeah, yes, he's fair. The only thing
she's taught me is curse words.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
So there you go, there you go, all right, very good,
very good a Riven Eric, very nice to talk to you.
Speaker 6 (36:46):

Speaker 3 (36:48):
That's awesome.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
That's great.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
And the best part is she sounds like I do.
When you were growing up in high school, not in
not in college, but when you were growing up in
high school, did you ever investigate being a foreign exchange student?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
No, we had a few, but I was never applied
to be one.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Now did you really you hosted several?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Yeah, we had two's Spanish girls and one French guy. Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Hey, what and why why did your family do that?
Had your had your had your parents had any experience
with foreign exchange students?
Speaker 2 (00:34):
My mom might have, but she she's pretty well traveled,
so she, you know, was something that she was interested
in doing, so she just applied for it. We got it,
and they would come live with us for the summer
and go to like English classes and just hang out
and do activities.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
And that's awesome, all right, very good. Three.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
That's a lot now that someone had one, Yeah, that's
a lot. Slim the and listen, I know foreign exchange
students have come up before.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Kristen on Monday, Maria, Oh, Maria, I remember that's riot
had that Spanish foreign exchange student selling celebrating Sinco to Mayo.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
That's right exactly.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
But I was reading about a girl who is from Italy?
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Where is she from?
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Mantua? Mantua. How do you say that? It's in Italy,
but I know how you're going to mispronounce it. Shortly,
the it is the capital of culture, Mantua, Mantua, Mantua.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Just say it?
Speaker 1 (01:36):
What come on, Oh, it's different.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Hoktua, that's how they say it over there. She is
from Hoctua, Italy.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
I'm not familiar with that city. I am not referred
to as the capital of Italian culture.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
It's her name is Emma Agazanni Agazania.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
She is from.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
She is from Mantua, Italy, a resident of Italy's capital
of culture, and she is living in Maryland's capital of culture,
Calvert County.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Stop.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Now, the family that she is living with. What is
the mom's name, Danielle Higginbotham. Great name, sounds fictitious, but
great name. So anyway, the yeah, there she is there,
she is.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
So she's from.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Italy and she came over and she is she has
spent this year her seat. Well it's not her senior year,
it's the school. So here's here's the weird thing. So
she is where she's from in in in Hactua they
are do you.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Think she knows who Hacktua is? Yes, absolutely, because she's international.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
The high school in Italy is five years, so this
is her fourth year. So she's graduating at is it
Huntington High School? She's graduating from Huntington High School? And
then we'll go back like she's going to walk with
the class, and then she'll go back and then do
her fifth year back in Italy in Italy and then
(03:20):
graduate there.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Culture shock A little bit, Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
But dude, how so I was reading all about her
and coming over here, she's got to be like, Wow,
this is not what I expected.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Calvert the.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
How does that work?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
When you apply from overseas? Are you randomly assigned or
like a counsel?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
So do you get do you student?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Do you know?
Speaker 5 (03:46):
No?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
If you're her and you're living in Italy, do you
want to study in the United States? Do you apply
for a state? Do you apply for A good question?
I don't know how broad could you be placed?
Speaker 1 (03:59):
That's a great question because when I was reading Krista,
will you see if you can find the people who
have a little bit of a more than I do,
a little bit more knowledge in the UH in the
FORID exchange program. Is that what it's called student Exchange.
My head'still a little love stuffy. Yeah, yeah, the like
fordn Exchange Program.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Are you saying have they changed the name.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
The I don't know what it's called the eight six
six to Elliott eight six six two three five five
four six eight Because I would assume here if you were,
if you were, if you were to apply to go overseas,
you would pick what country You're like, oh, I want
to go to France or but do you get more
specific than that? Do you say you want to go
to Paris? Do you say you want to go to
(04:40):
another city in France? Do you say you want city?
Do you say you want country?
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Like?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Was this girl sitting in Italy and was like, I'm
tired of like opera and culture. I'm going to Calvert County.
Stop the There's no way I can promise you. There's
no way she knows what Calvert County is in Italy. There. Now,
the other thing that I thought was interesting, and I
don't know if anybody knows the Higginbotham family.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
They said.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
That when oh, here we go, that when the Higginbothams
were going through a list of people that they wanted,
almost like they were shopping for a foreign exchange student.
So did she write down Maryland or did she just
write down US and you.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Get what you get.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
That's what I asked, And that somebody who is part
of the program goes shopping and goes, I want this one,
and then they go back to her and they're like, hey,
good luck or good news, you're going to Calvert County.
This girl could have been thinking, I bet Beverly Hills
is going to be awesome.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Now, May I ask about the photo here of her? Yes,
she is clearly in a cheerleader's outfit. Absolutely, girl a
part of the team.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
This girl has taken full advantage of her time in
Calvert County. She and she said that you should the yeah,
oh yeah, but also think the family's got to be
supportive of it. Also, the one that you're staying with.
So things that they don't have in Mantua or Mantua
(06:21):
that they do have here. They don't have cheerleading overseas,
or at least in Italy. So she was like, I
joined the uh, I joined the cheerleading team. Lacrosse. I
didn't know this. Lacrosse is non existent overseas, non existent.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
She had never even heard of it.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
She's played lacrosse for Huntington High School. She was able
to walk onto the team, which is one of two things.
Either like they were like, this is great and you
can be a part of the team and learn it.
Or and I mean this with no disrespect to anybody
on that team, they suck that somebody who never even
heard of the sport is a walk on senior varsity player.
(07:01):
So and I mean listen, if she's doing cheerleading in lacrosse,
she's obviously pretty good physically.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
One, we're talking Calvert lacrosse. Calvert lacrosse cross. We suck,
Elliott Tyler. The girl has never even seen a lacrosse stick.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
But you didn't say as much about the cheerleading squad.
They're tryouts for cheerleading.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Go fight win.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Calverteer leading. We also suck.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Be aggressive. So vava.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Let's go fight, go fight win.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Wait to say that again, go fight, go fight.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
No, No, but let me hear how they say, vaya combat,
Vaya combatre suck.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
We got spirit. How about you? Did she go to
prom SI? Yes, oh that's true. Maybe they does Calvern
have a problem.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Yes, well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:09):

Hey, good morning, Hey, who's this Nicholas?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Yes, Nicholas, what can I do for you.
Speaker 8 (11:08):
Yeah, So my brother was an exchange student in high school,
went to Denmark. My wife is from Spain. She came
to the States as an exchange student in high school.
And for the large part, people have no idea what
they're walking into. You're like, hey, I want to go
to the States, that'd be great. It's all the same, right,
it's totally crueless. And you want to talk about culture shock.
I mean my wife's high school had a bar in
(11:28):
it where the kids could go and skip class and
have drinks, play cards inane.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
I mean, it's just.
Speaker 8 (11:35):
Yeah, yeah, it's totally different. And he talked about culture shock.
I mean, yeah, the lacrosse. They don't even know lacosse
was the native of a more American sport. They have
no idea what lacrosse is in Europe.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Hey, let me ask you this, when when your wife
came over from Espana? Where where did where was she
an exchange student? Like where where did? Where did she go?
Speaker 8 (11:55):
She went to Kansas City and she said the first
time the kids had a party. She went there and
she'd been kind of you know, she was with a
French girl, two of them to exchange students in the
same house. And they're really excited about going to the
first party because they were thinking, oh, you know, there'd
be some beers, some boys. And she said she got
there in those Coca cola and chips and she got
really depressed.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
This a place that sucks. Hey, did she did she
choose Kansas City or did they just send her to
Kansas City?
Speaker 9 (12:25):
Well you do.
Speaker 8 (12:25):
You know, you get an option of cities and they're like, oh,
Kansas City. But they don't know anything, right, It's like
pick any town in France, pick any town in Spain,
and you're gonna says, sure it, it's Spain.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
It's the States.
Speaker 8 (12:37):
You know, it's all the same, right.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
I promise you, Thank you, sir, thank you. I promise you.
There is no way that this very nice young lady.
And again, no disrespect. There's no way. She was sitting there.
It was like, no, Galver County is for me. That
would be perfect, though.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
I bet she sounds nothing like that.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yeah, well, no, voicesn't as deep, no, it says here.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
She's been studying English since first grade.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Okay, I have two.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
I was able to take take multiple AP classes, including
AP English. I took AP classes, but this she took AP, government,
pre calculus, biology, photography, theater.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
That'd be cool if you do get a list of cities.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Okay, Well, first of all, this one's a tryhard.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Also is because she's smart. The I take it to
AP Gove. I figured the AP. By the way, it's
AP and Calvert. Listen, I know they're lacrosse the MESSAKA.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
It's the same standards as the college board puts for it.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
The not if you're an exchange student. Okay, okay.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
According to her, it's been a dream come true.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Oh I bet, I bet. Listen. None, neither of my.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Kids have any interest in like study abroad or anything
like that.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
I was never exposed to it. I know, I never went.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I had friends. I didn't even have friends that went
study abroad. I didn't know anybody heard either.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
No, she said, the language is the culture. The travel
had her determined to pursue this opportunity.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Wait of being a foreign exchange student or specifically Calvert County.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
She doesn't say, we don't know yet.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Oh I dream of the lights over all of Los
Angeles in the beach.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
So she applied in February twenty twenty two with the
ass the American Scandinavian student exchange. I'm not familiar with
that now.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
I love La line eight.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Hi Elliet in the morning. Yeah, Hi, who's this.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Junie?
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Yes? What can I do for you? Were you an
exchange student or have you hosted?
Speaker 10 (15:00):
I was in a stage sent during that summer and
was able to live with a family just outside of
Paris and a vacation down in the Mediterranean, so it
was really cool.
Speaker 8 (15:16):
I was on the beach every day, you know, had.
Speaker 10 (15:20):
A great time and stayed with a French family and
they had two daughters and that were younger, so I
was hanging around with older kids and just having a blast.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Hey, were you, like, did you play any like did
you play any sports for your school or were you
in cheerleading for your school or anything? The one in France,
Like did you do any of that?
Speaker 10 (15:43):
Oh no, no, no, It during the summer, so everybody
was on vacation.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Oh I got you. Oh. I don't know if I
like the summer. One summer I want to hang out
with all my friends. I don't want to go over there,
like summer is summer is my off time?
Speaker 10 (15:58):
Well, you know, I want to meet French kids and
we hung out and had a great time on the beach.
And I had the plan that also was an exchange
student went to France as well, but just stuck on
a farm and he just pat it in.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
That's my luck, that's my li. Like, that's this girl,
that's a gazzi. Like she's like, oh god.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Damn it. All right, very good, very good, Thank you, ma'am,
thank you.
Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yes, it is funny too, Like I can see it's
nowhere near Rome or the Vatican, but you yesterday were
wondering if it's just cool to be around the conclave.
Oh sure, and she's here.
Speaker 11 (16:40):
Now.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Granted she's not from just outside Rome. In fact, i'm
reading why she's from the capital of culture in Italy right.
It says it's the city's historic power and influence under
the Gonzaga family between thirteen twenty eight and seventeen oh
eight made it one of the most artistic hubs with
especially musical exploration of northern Italy and Italy as a whole.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Oh wow, by the way, that little that little thumbnail picture, Yeah,
that looks beautiful. Lose I is right on the water.
Speaker 4 (17:10):
That's actually Huntingtown. The no that is that is what
are we deciding Mantua Mantua haktua.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yes, Ellie, he got away from that. No, that that's
the closest thing I can get to it. That's also
deals with water a little bit. Where am I going?
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Line one? Hi, Jellie in the morning.
Speaker 11 (17:34):
Hi. I hosted a foreign exchange student for a year
two years ago.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Wait you hosted?
Speaker 8 (17:42):
You said?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Or you hosted a foreign exchange student?
Speaker 11 (17:46):
Yes, I hosted a kid from Spain.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
And when you when you chose him, do you go
through a catalog and pick out who you want?
Speaker 11 (17:57):
Basically? Yeah, but I haven't done. And we let my
son pick and it turned.
Speaker 12 (18:03):
Out to be a really great bet.
Speaker 11 (18:06):
And he is two weeks younger than my son.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Bro, Where do you Where do you live? Where do
you live?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Oh? Okay, so they I mean that that's I mean,
that's fine right, Like you may as well. That's a nice,
nice area. You're good to go, Like that's cool. Did
the kid like it? Like?
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Did he get really involved in everything?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (18:29):
My gosh, the kid loved this country. He loved I
mean he even loved going to the grocery store and
the orthodontics with my son. And he loved it so much.
He's coming back here for college, even though he has
like a free ride in Europe.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Where is he American University's far superior?
Speaker 3 (18:49):
Where is he? Where is he going to college?
Speaker 11 (18:54):
Georgia Tech?
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Oh, you know what, good for him? Good for him,
great campus right in the middle of Atlanta. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
Yeah, I still think.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
I still think it'd be awesome to have one for
as much dog fostering as we do. I would definitely
be like a student foster, like that would be awesome.
Speaker 11 (19:12):
So it is because you become like a Washington, DC
tourist again, but it's expensive because you want to expose
them to everything, and plus you're feeding a teenage boy.
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Yeah right, I know that.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Well, they were talking about a thank you, ma'am, thank you.
They were talking about this Italian girl in Calvert County,
Like they took her to Disney, They took her to
Philadelphia so she could have a cheese steak.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
She went somewhere else. I can't remember where she went.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I think they took her to a bunch of like
cities that she would have preferred to have gone to.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
Oh, Atlanta, that's it. Yeah, she went to Atlanta.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
So they were like close your eyes and imagine like
where do you wish you would have gone?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
And will take you, We'll take you.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
It says that her home city is also very famous
for their sumptuous cuisine and their iconic menu ingredient is pumpkin. Oh,
so you've got the arts, You've got the restaurant scene.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Mama, I go to the Chipotle A lot.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
There is by that high school. There is a seven to.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Eleven great displace in the world.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
And you mentioned seeing the waterways near Mantoa.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
You do have the Peduxent. H you know what great
point in Calvert. The water is a little different, darker,
more murky, lots of how do you say, garbage floaters? Oh,
you think she's a three plus floater? Hi, Ellie in
the morning, Elates, Yeah, Hi, who's this? Hell?
Speaker 12 (21:03):
Yes, hey, Eliot, it's so Tony calling from the Eastern Shore.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Yes, sir, what can I do for you?
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (21:09):
I lived in Italy from twenty fifteen to twenty twenty two,
just outside of Matcha, and we've been approached here on
the Eastern shore.
Speaker 8 (21:15):
The bos So.
Speaker 12 (21:16):
I can to kind of tell you how that little
program works from my perspective, from what.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
I've learned wait, hold on one second. So so this
the town of Mantua.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
They you're mispronouncing it. They they approached you and asked
if you would host kids from over there.
Speaker 12 (21:31):
No, no, no, there's a program here in the States
that they said, Hey, here's a list of students, and
some were from Italy, from Spain, some from France and
things like that, and you can kind of pick one.
But from what I understand, they've all kind of enrolled.
Let's say one of the students wants to be a
marine biologist and they're enrolled in a summer program where
it puts them like kind of either a Calvert County
(21:52):
or over here on the eastern shore and put them
in the summer where they learn kayaking and sailing and
all about the bay and the estuaries.
Speaker 8 (21:58):
And things like that.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
So I can see.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
So maybe this girl was interested in like kind of
getting away from it all.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Could be Yeah, yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Hey is is Mantua? Is it is it nice? It
looks beautiful?
Speaker 12 (22:13):
Actually it is.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
There's a lot.
Speaker 12 (22:15):
So that's in the Lombardy Lombardi region, just south of Venezo,
which is where we live. We were about thirty miles
west of Venice, So it's nice. We've blown through there
a few times on our way down to Tuscany. But yeah,
there's a lot of really cool little towns like that
around there.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
If you went from there to Calvert County, would it
be culture shock?
Speaker 12 (22:36):
Absolutely? I mean I grew up here and we lived
there for seven years, and I've been back three years
now and I'm still experiencing reverse culture shock.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
It's ridiculous. Is not the same, dude, Hey, I appreciate
the I appreciate the phone call.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Thank you, my friend, thank you. Do you think she's
ever turned on the on the show? Why? Why wouldn't she? Hey?
What do I listen to? I get in a dressed.
Speaker 4 (23:02):
By the way, we know someone who's chaperoning their prom.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Wait on May seventeen. Yes, his name is e Eliot. No,
what day of the week is that? What day of
the week is the seventh? Saturday?
Speaker 11 (23:15):
Right?
Speaker 4 (23:15):
It's a weekend problem?
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Friday or Saturday?
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Remember we learned Chris got screwed when he was in
high school. They had her on Monday.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Oh that's right, Saturday.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
It is a Saturday. If it's early enough, I could
do it.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Oh my god, you are not requested to be there.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
You don't know what if the school calls today and
they were like, uh, hey, are you want to come Atua?
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Who's who's chaperoning?
Speaker 4 (23:37):
You can't say why because they don't want to be public.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
What is it? But what does it say? That's just
that their chaperone?
Speaker 4 (23:46):
Yes, Ashley writes on Facebook. We had a girl from
Spain for a year in Saint Mary's. She played lacrosse
right her parents?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
So what suck?
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Her parents came to visit.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Did they take her and move her into a hotel?
Speaker 4 (24:02):
They said America was just like the movies, So that
can be bad.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Like what you know, a vast a lot of differentis.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
She also was on the cheerleading squad. I don't understand
what your problem is with that.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It just looks bad when somebody comes in this girl's
she's immersing herself in the culture.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
I think it's awesome. I think it's great.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Wants to have like a traditional United States high school experience.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Let's pretend.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Let's pretend that you live in Calvert County and you
go to Huntington High School and Marley has been in
in in gymnastics and tumbling, and her dream is to
be on the cheerleading team, and you got cut for
the girl who was like, I never even a scene
of this. I can't do a somersault.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
I do wish someone could get to her and she
could call before school starts and you could hear that
this stereotypical, disgusting h impression you're doing is so far
from reality.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Oh you don't think that's how Italians talk.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
It's absolute in video games. Yes, when you're driving cars.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
So what do you think she sounds like Diane?
Speaker 4 (25:29):
No? I think a year here can do wonders to
your Well.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Of course, if I lived in Mantua for a year,
I would sound more Italian than I do now. Yes,
but I still talking like an is. She's still Italian. Listen.
I've gotten into lubers with people who have been in
the States for a long time, and I can still
tell that they're not from here.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
You probably point that out. Laurel had an exchange student
in ninety five from Germany. We still talk every single day,
every day. Oh my god, ninety five Germany.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Well, I can't keep going back and forth with all
the languages.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Nine Where am I going? Line five? I like it
that of Barbee song. Hi Ellie in the morning.
Speaker 6 (26:21):
Hi, good morning.
Speaker 9 (26:22):

My name is m J.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Yes, what can I do for you?
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Hey?
Speaker 13 (26:28):
So we actually currently have an exchange student, do you really?
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yes?
Speaker 6 (26:32):
And we actually are hosting again next year?
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Where where is Do do you have kids with your own?
Speaker 4 (26:39):
We do?
Speaker 6 (26:39):
We have four?
Speaker 3 (26:40):
You have four?
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Now? You got five?
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (26:42):
They? Hey what all boys?
Speaker 6 (26:44):
Currently?
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Wait? Is the exchange student a boy?
Speaker 8 (26:47):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Well I guess would they let you have four teenage
boys and then a girl? Oh?
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Yes, because we're hosting a girl.
Speaker 13 (26:56):
Well, we don't have teenage boys. We have little boys.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Oh okay, gotcha. Oh so you got a babysitter.
Speaker 6 (27:04):
So yes, and no, they're actually technically not allowed to babysit.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Okay, well they're probably also not allowed to smoke, not
allowed to drink.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
And I bet she's like DC better.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Than Maroney, that's PERRONI whatever the hey, So let me
ask you this.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Let me ask you this the where where's the kid from?
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (27:26):
So my current exchange is from Italy?
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:28):
From Italy? Where do you know where in Italy?
Speaker 13 (27:32):
He is from the northern part, So I think about
an hour from Milan.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
How's his English?
Speaker 6 (27:38):
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Now does he sound like Elliott when he talks?
Speaker 13 (27:43):
No, he actually lost a lot of his Italian accent
throughout the year. He's about to go home, but when
he got here the accent was really thick and his
English was not so good.
Speaker 6 (27:52):
But he's he's done.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Amazing where And now he's saying, y'all and he's from
you said, he's from just outside of Milaude. Where where?
Where are you calling me from?
Speaker 6 (28:02):
I'm calling you from Richmond, Virginia.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
And when he when he came over, did he know
he was going to Richmond? Or was he like?
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I love La.
Speaker 13 (28:14):
So with the company's they actually don't get to pick
unless they pay extra. So they can pick like New
York or Florida or something a state if they pay
it's a lot of money they paid to pick those places.
Most exchange students do not pay that, so they just
get they go wherever a host's.
Speaker 6 (28:32):
Family picks them.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
I got you you you picked this kid?
Speaker 9 (28:36):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (28:36):
What made you? What?
Speaker 1 (28:37):
What stood out about him?
Speaker 8 (28:40):
So?
Speaker 13 (28:41):
My husband is actually a race car fabricator. He makes
race for parts and he, my exchange student, works with
his parents.
Speaker 6 (28:49):
In a truck infection stop in Italy.
Speaker 13 (28:52):
So with the automobile love between the both of them,
it's been an amazing year.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Oh that's cool, that's awesome, sir. I need the kids.
Speaker 3 (29:00):

the radio. I love of the music and the concerts.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
I love to run the errands for someone, erons get

Speaker 13 (29:14):
A lot of the kids in Europe love music because
they go out and may party at like.
Speaker 1 (29:19):

as we're screwing around, to be to be on the
lacrosse team, to be on the cheerleading team, to be
in all the ap classes, like, she has really jumped
in with both.

Feet, both feet, and she is the most precious, sweet
human being that I've ever encountered. And now we have
a new family member.

Well, she's only going back to get the rest of
her stuff to come back here. Oh wait, that's what

Oh okay, she told the news. I go back of
her my scene the year.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
Hey is she she does? She leaves in about five weeks.
Oh wow, We're pretty devastated. But it's been the most
amazing experience that we've ever had. And she has loved
every moment, and we've loved every moment with her.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
And you picked her right.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
I was reading in the in the story where where
I guess your your your mom, or maybe it was
both your parents had hosted before.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Yeah, so when I was a kid, we hosted some
exchange from the same program. It's called Asse and my
husband and I were talking. We're like, hey, it would
be cool because we have a son he's six. So
we went through the list and got in contact with
him and started going through and found her and she
kind of just like stuck out. She she was her
(33:21):
article was super bubbly and we picked her and that
the rest history.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Hey can I.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
Can I ask you this and please take no offense?
The yeah, like when she got to Calvert County? Was
she like where where all the movie stars? I won
a Hollywood?
Speaker 15 (33:43):
But I think when she got to Calvert she was like,
oh crap, nowhere? But she but she ad justed really quick.
Like I think joining the cheer team immediately was really.
Speaker 6 (34:01):
Good for her. And you know, she's really smart and understanding.
So and we've traveled around like we've gone to Miami,
we've gone to Atlanta, We've gone to all the big cities.
So I think she's getten the full experience.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Hey, did she like what happens if?
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Like if and listen, you don't have to if you
don't want to, but like, did she do anything while
staying with you that she got reprimanded for?
Speaker 3 (34:22):
Were like you and your husband had to kind of
lay down the hammer.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
No, actually, we're really lucky. We've never I've never had
to like discipline her. I've had to tell her like
you need to call me and you get me a
little in advanced notice when I have to pick you up
from school. But that's it.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
She is.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
She makes good grades, she doesn't get in trouble. She
doesn't like go do like teenager stuff.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Right yeah, right, So like she doesn't call and go like,
ooh too much of me? You no come and get
me yad?
Speaker 6 (34:53):
No, Well no she doesn't. But I but I also
live by the rule like if you're going to go
to a party, like you need to just I rather
you be safe and call absolutely absolutely, and then then
you get in a car with anyone and there'll be
no judgment. Of course, that's just kind of my that's
just our rule. Period. So she hasn't she hasn't, but
(35:17):
she hasn't had.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
To call you.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
She hasn't had to call you for that.
Speaker 6 (35:20):

Speaker 6 (36:01):
She is going to prom? You know what? Like, I
gotta say this. The guys at Huntingtown High School are too,
I think, intimidated to talk to her. So she's going
with her girlfriends, right.
Speaker 1 (36:14):

from Hawktua?
Speaker 3 (36:23):

she's taught me is curse words.
