3 Things: Ari is the Only Artist to Achieve this!

We knew WIcked would do well in the box office, but I forgot Ariana hit these other major milestones in 2024!

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
When you need to know she's got you.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
It's three things with tip.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Good morning. We're just before nine o'clock. A reminder at
nine oh five, I have your chance to win that
free trip to Miami for our iHeartRadio jingle ballots right
before Christmas, so you get a little vacation before you
spend the holidays. Yere, maybe a little bit of both.
Don't go far all right, let's start off with the bridge.
So weather wise, mild temperatures right now, they'll start to

(00:32):
decline Wednesday. If you're traveling north, you might see rain
snow mix. If you're around Cincy for the holidays, you'll
see temperatures in the forties with more rain. As far
as what time that rain comes, we'll know more as
we get later into the weekend. That'll vvv. It'll be
very chilly over the weekend. So what does that have
to do with the bridge? The Brent Spence typically sees

(00:55):
a higher volume of traffic during the holidays, like most
major bridges, but even more so this year. Oh boy,
it's gonna be a little bit of a nightmare. Wednesday,
it was formerly the biggest travel day of the year.
It started to shift to Tuesday, now, so you'll start
to see traffic. You might even start to see it tonight.
You'll have to pay attention to that one and report
back to me. But the bridge demolition starts the day

(01:19):
after Thanksgiving, so this Friday, and that will take them
until the end of December. Then from there the restoration
and the repairs will start. So we'll be in this
situation for a while, and I think that was to
be expected as soon as we saw those photos. Woo,

(01:40):
good news is them. We're starting to see that time
where things slow down, vacations starting to kick in a
little bit more. So hopefully it will alleviate some stuff
until we can really move forward with this. And also
praying for good weather when this is happening. I feel
all right. All of our crews that have to work
out there in like the middle of December and January,
trying to get this bridge fixed not a fun job,

(02:01):
so everyone's going through it. Pack your patients. Second, in
three things you need to know this morning, I could
not be more invested in the fact that we could
potentially be getting a women's soccer team here.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
We're really enthusiastic about the final three prospects that we
have in the process. Those three markets are Cincinnati, Cleveland,
and Denver.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
I was NWSL Commissioner Jessica Berman, who's going to Cleveland?
Who in Cleveland wants to go to a soccer game?
I mean, come on, Denver. I don't know, can't speak
to them, but if we lose to Cleveland, I'm going
to be so mad. I did report last week that
Caitlin Clark is a major investor.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
Her accomplishments and contributions to women's sports is incredible, historic.
It's changed the game for everyone, and she's amazing. Having
her interest in the NWSL is an honor. We couldn't
be more excited about her. Having shared her own personal
story about having been a young soccer player and loving

(03:05):
the game, and her messaging around being a multi sport
athlete is so important.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
I am so excited. I really hope we get it.
We'll know by the end of this year if we
will have one fingers crossed, all right? And then lastly,
and three things you need to know this morning, A
big congratulations to Ariana Grande. Now I'll get to some
wicked stats for you here in a hot second, But
Ariana Grande, excuse me, as the first artist to have

(03:33):
a number one album, a number one song, and a
number one movie within a calendar year. Eternal Sunshine was
the album that came out in March. And here's the
single that went when that went number one, Carter No,
I Lie. That was from Our Last Three Things, and
that was Kendrick Lamar's album Here It Is Okay, Here we.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Go payclus sentence. Wait.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
I loved that song we Can't Be Friends and don't
you remember? And of course the number one movie is Wicked.
You remember she put that album out in March and
we were like, oh, new album, maybe a new ariana
grande tour. She shut that down real high, and I
now understand why with the amount of press that went
into Wicked. Who speaking of you want to talk numbers
one hundred and fourteen million one weekend, one hundred and

(04:34):
fourteen million dollars in the United States of America, one
hundred and sixty four point two million globally crazy big
movie weekend. Second place was Gladiator at fifty five million.
You notice they didn't do a single ounce of advertising
for Gladiator. I was curious about that. I haven't seen it.
I was recommended though to see it in theater. If

(04:55):
you are speaking of the theater outside of Wicked and Gladiator,
you've got Mouana coming out on things. Well, it's going
to be a busy weekend, all right. That is three
things you need to know for the twenty fifth of November.
Coming up next, we're going to talk TV, one of
my favorite things to do on a Monday. What did
you watch? What are you recommending? What do you want
to see? What's your comfort show right now in the
holiday season? Talk back with Tiff on iHeartRadio. When you

(05:15):
search Kiss, you'll see the microphone right next to the
play button. You can contribute to the show.
