Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're waking up with in the morning. Good morning. I
know that spending money these days is just like tightening
up the melt here and there.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
But what is a recent purchase that you've made that
has brought you so much joy?

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Listening to Sarah LEAs, good morning, Sarah.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
Good morning.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Tell me about this Nikon camera that she bought for
her Instagram pictures and she took some photos at Great
American Ballpark the other night.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
Girl, It's not even as nice as a nikon.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Do you remember the one that we had in college.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
Yeah, it was the pink cannon.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
It was it a cannon. Yeah, it's a cannon.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
I had the little pink case that went around my
wrists and I carried that things everywhere like a wrist legs.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
It just dangled. The Verer Bradley lanyard, and the cannon
it just dangled.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
You're such millennials. I love it.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
I love it so much.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
But to this day, all of those pictures that were taken.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Are really bad. One into that to us lightly incriminating. Yeah,
just went unhited. Gen Z, just picture this.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Imagine taking photos, not even looking at them, and just
uploading them straight to social media.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
No, no, Edits just raw, just raw.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
You plug the camera photos, yep, you plug it into
your little laptop or your desktop whatever. There's probably fifty
to eighty from a Friday night out Yep. For me,
it was at Brick Street and Oxford m a Miami grad,
go RedHawks, and then you upload all of them into
one album title it something super cringed lady that Brick

(01:39):
and nobody really even really, I don't think anyone looked
at them. Maybe my mom now goes back and looks,
but it was so bad.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
You would go back and I bet there'd be one
like on the album that didn't even matter. Likest doesn't matter.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:52):
And I remember when I got to Miami and when
I finally got that edu email address. I was so
excited just to have a Facebook, because you couldn't have
Facebook unless you were in college. And then they finally
open it up and they were like, okay, high school
and eighteen and up, and it's just we've come so far.

(02:15):
I've come so far, but we've really seen the progression
of social media. Like as millennials, yes, we have imagine
raw photos unedited.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
It's so cringe good.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Morning that you were waking up with tip in the
morning on Kissuan oh seven when you're walking smack dab
in the middle of us talking about millennial nostalgia on
the show today, let's check your talkbacks.

Speaker 5 (02:38):
Morning tip.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
My millennial nostalgia thing is the pink Raser flip phone.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Remember those Those were literally.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
The best things ever and it was hot, so perfect.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
But there's only there was only one. The motorola was
hot pink. I mean it did not. I mean there
might have been other colors, but it really was the hot.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Pink one that did it.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Oh so good.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
There is there anything more satisfying than closing a flip phone.
That's how we ended our calls. I never hit the end,
but I just like you just close, so satisfying. The
reason why we're talking about it, and I've played this
clip before on the show. Ed Sheeran released photos yesterday
from his old iPhone and they are true gems and

(03:27):
you can relate to them because they're like unedited that
we're doing like they're doing, like just weird stuff.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Harry Styles, Taylor Swift.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
There's so many if you haven't come across these on
the internet. And this is the reason why.

Speaker 6 (03:39):
So I switched my phone off twenty fifteen and left
it in a box. And then when I went through
that lawsuit, I got my phone out again and had
to go through like all the voice notes and the
pictures and all that stuff for the lawyers, and I
switched on and it was like going into a time machine.
Like the first text was my friend that had passed
away the year before. The second text was like an
argument with an ex girlfriend. The third text with a

(04:00):
family member I hadn't spoken to in ten years. Full
text was an the mate that died. And I was
kind of like scrolling down. It really really spun me out.
And that day I wrote in my notes, like I
found my old phone today.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Isn't that cool?

Speaker 2 (04:11):
If you haven't heard a clip of the song yet,
here's a clip here.

Speaker 6 (04:15):
It is for you messages from all my excess I
kind of think that this was best left.

Speaker 5 (04:24):
They're in the past way it launch.

Speaker 6 (04:29):
I feeling overwhelming sadness of all the friends.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
That I do not have left.

Speaker 6 (04:36):
It's good seeing I'm a family has fracture, groving uphing
moving all.

Speaker 7 (04:46):
I found my own phone today.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
I cannot wait for that song to come out.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
There's no release date on it yet, And of course,
I think it'll be a part of Ed Scheeran's new
album when he finally does give it to us. But
it had me thinking about what is in your old phone?
If you were to turn that thing on today, who
would be in there? What would be in there? What's
in your archive?

Speaker 7 (05:09):
Five?

Speaker 2 (05:10):
One, three, seven four nine one oh seven one. Or
you can talk back with Tiff on the iHeart Radio app.
Let's see what we get. Good morning, You're waking up
with Tiff in the morning on a Kiss one oh
seven one. I'm so, so so excited to filter through
some of these talkbacks this morning on the things that
you have on your old phone. We'll start off with

(05:30):
our first talkback, which had me in tears.

Speaker 5 (05:32):
Okay, this is really bad because this is from like
five years ago. But when I was on Tinder, I
would save certain voicemails and play them for my girlfriends.
And there's one still on there from a guy that
I went on one date with that left me.

Speaker 4 (05:49):
I love your life, No call me back. I don't
understand I love you.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
I know that's terrible, but it's so entertaining every time
I play it for my friends.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Girl who is leaving voicemails even five years ago. Wow,
that is a true like, that's archaic. You need to
hold on to that for forever. Thank you for the
talk back with Tiff. It's an alternative way to contribute
and it's an iHeartRadio app thing. If you listen to
my show, there microphone is next to the play. Butne
you're the reason why we're even talking about this in
the first place is because Ed Sheeran yesterday just littered

(06:23):
the Internet with photos from his old iPhone from ten
years ago. We're talking oldies of Taylor Swift, Harry styles
and they're so like millennial nostalgia because they're unedited. They're
doing like the weirdest things, kind of like how we
used to just upload a million photos to Facebook without
a care in the world, no editing, nothing.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
So if you were to open up your old iPhone
or your old phone, what would be in there.

Speaker 4 (06:49):
One of my ex boyfriends and I sang the dream
song by the Everly Brothers and we just were drunk
and we just like recorded it and I push record
and he was like, oh, are you sure it's the
first time we're seeing this, and he played his guitar
and it's still there.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Well, that sounds like an important memory to you specifically.

Speaker 7 (07:12):
Oh, i'd Parlie say I have one with Well, all
pictures of my kids are valuable, of course, but I
do have some celebrity photos. I used to be a
really well stillium, a really huge Statchut Boys fan, and
I got to meet them, and so I've got that
photo on my phone. So if that went anywhere, I

(07:34):
would be devastated.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
I mean I would be devastated too.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
That's the one that you got to hang on to
for life, right, speaking of millennial nostalgia, all right, you
two can get involved in the conversation. It's funny that
we're talking about x's and stuff because I have been
going back through my Google photos and trying to clean
up some of my storage, and I keep coming across

(08:01):
pictures and videos of the Finance guy, and I have
a really hard time with the thought of deleting them.
They used to make me wicked sad, but now they
make me smile when I look back, So I don't
think I want to get rid of them. Conversation for
another day, But I had a dream about him last night.
Oh my god, we are going down memory road. Rock

(08:21):
your barde.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Im avie.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
You all bye right.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
Happy Wednesday. What is in your old phone?
