Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're waking up with four kiss one all right, write energy,
but wrong number. Have you ever gotten a wrong text
from someone? And have you ever indulged in that text message?
I've got an Annie update for you, and it's been
a minute since I've had an anti chronicle update on
the show. By the way, Annie's the keyword for the
old Dominion postgame concert tickets with the Reds this Thursday.
(00:23):
That's happening in like less than ten minutes or so.
So just to update you, I've been getting text messages
for a woman named Annie, for I would say the
better half actually for a year, actually just one year ago.
Around the fourth of July. I started getting text messages
from an eight to six oh area code. I think
that might be Connecticut. And I'm talking pages and pages
(00:45):
like I'm scrolling with my finger as we speak, from
this woman. And every time I get them, I read
them on the air. I'm at the point now where
I need to I need your help on whether or
not I should respond to these. I'm gonna read them
and then we'll go from there. Annie. Sorry I didn't call.
I hope you had a good day. I'm upset I
lost that necklace. Tom gave me and the earrings he
(01:07):
gave me one earring broke. It all happened today. Concierge
is not on tonight, so hopefully tomorrow someone might find
the necklace. Since I've been here, I've lost four earrings.
None of them been found. What a bitch. On that note,
I will say good night, love Mom. I'll keep going.
Before my thoughts Annie, I received a phone call from
(01:28):
Gail and she wants to visit me at the time
of my birthday. I do not know when she can come,
but I guess at my birthday. I told her to
call you and see when she should come because I
thought we could get together. We have new updates for
her ninetieth birthday. If this sounds convoluted to you, imagine
where I stand right now. I don't know how to respond.
(01:50):
We've talked about it on the show so far. We
think that Annie and her mom might have a little
bit of an estranged relationship, because how many times would
you you text your daughter and have her not respond
to you before you would call nine one one. Hey,
I've been getting text messages from Annie like for a year,
like a year, as it responded a one text, who
(02:12):
is she texting. The newest development here is that this
woman is she must be in some sort of nursing home,
and she's ninety years old. And she said in a
text message, I lost my necklace in my earrings. What
a bitch.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Like?
Speaker 1 (02:30):
I said, right energy, wrong number. I don't know what
to do in this case at this point, I need
to know whether or not I should respond or maybe
you have a story five one three seven four nine,
one oh seven one. If I were to respond, what
do I say? Good morning? You're waking up with Tip
in the morning on kiss one oh seven one, right energy,
wrong number. I have an any update for you? If
(02:52):
you're just walking into the show. Should I respond back
to these random text messages that I've been getting for
a year? Good morning? We'll start with you. I think
that if you do reply, definitely reply with no compassion
because as a widow who still texts her husband's phone number,
so Annie could be you know, dead, and it.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Could be her mother just breathing a lost taxing.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, now I'm learning number one she lost the necklace
in the earrings, and and that is a tough that's tough, right,
But now that I know that this, she might be
ninety this is that's the newest development on the text thread.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Yeah, that's a tough one.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I would just leave it. I would just leave it. Well,
thank you for the call. I appreciate you. Gil. If
you're just walking into the story stoting, I've been getting
text messages for a woman named Annie for like the
better half of the year, and she just hit me
up over the fourth of July, and we have new developments.
(03:59):
You know, be ninety years old, so I'm genuinely not
sure what to do with these anti text messages he's had.
All right, here's what we're gonna do. If you can
give me three minutes, I still have time to filter
through some of your talkbacks. If you have yet to
leave me one, now might be the day to do it.
(04:20):
Microphone's in the top right hand corner when you search
kiss on iHeartRadio. Three minutes from now, I'm gonna give
you a chance to stamp her. Since the summer passport
with the Reds tickets to go see Old Dominion on Thursday,
it's their postgame concert. Because you're winking up with Tiff
in the morning on Kiss one O seven to one,
Good morning, You're two minutes out from your chance to
(04:40):
win the Reds tickets to see their postgame concert with
Old Dominion on Thursday. But I genuinely don't know how
to respond to these text messages that I've been getting
for the better half of a year now for a
woman named Annie right energy, wrong number. We've discovered today.
This woman's in her nineties. So I don't know how
(05:01):
to go about this. Good morning, you're on the air.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Well, I will just say that I write text messages
to my dead mom, and when you read those, I
really thought maybe her daughter's dead. And that's the only
four expression she has for her.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Okay, so you're you are coming from experience. That's why
I haven't said anything to this woman yet, because I
don't I want to tread lightly.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yeah, nobody's ever responded to my messages. I send my
mom a message probably once a month, just tell her
what's going on in my life. I know that number
isn't hers anymore, it's somebody else's. I know they get
her messages. I appreciate that somebody probably takes the time
to read them. Yeah, a response back might freak me
(05:47):
out a little bit, But if the lady's old, maybe
she's got dementia, and that's the only way she has
left to communicate with what's left her daughter.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Right I was thinking the dementia route as well, but
she seems like very articulate in the tech messages. So
I'm glad that you shared your story. And it sounds
like you might have a touch of emotion in your voice,
unless you're losing it just because of you know, the
weather and such, outside of.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Emotion, because you were talking about king about old dominion
as well, and not with my mom's songs, so she
was very heavy in my mind when we were talking
about that. Oh my god, I want to share.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
I'm well, I'm so glad that you called and shared,
and I bet she's listening right now, and I am
glad that we could make this little connection. You have
to remind me of your name of a neighborhood you're in.
My name's Candace, and I'm friend Candace. I'm sending you
all the good vibes in love today. Thank you have
a great day, you too, Girly well, I sid so
so far the answer is no, I should not respond.
(06:42):
I'm going to check one talk back before we do
the tickets because we're here. Might as welcome morning, sev
would I would text her back and say, hey, this
isn't Annie.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Or maybe give her a call since she's a ninety
and maybe y'all can be friends.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
You know what. I appreciate that talk back with Tiff.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm like, well, what if,
like you know, Annie and I become like long lost
friends and then I go and I spend Thanksgiving with her?
This is where my mind is going. You know, my
mind is also here as well. He had. My favorite
(07:17):
part about Annie is she said this one thing about
her necklaces. She lost a pair of necklaces and earrings,
and she said in the text message it all happened today.
Concierge is not on tonight, so hopefully tomorrow someone might
find the necklace. Since I've been here, I've lost four earrings.
None of them have been found. What a bitch lover like?
(07:37):
I said, right energy, wrong number? All right? Collar ten.
If you're still here, you're locked in. Hopefully you have
a hint as to what the keyword was based off
of that song. I just played five win three seven
four nine one O seven one. I will stamp here
Since the summer passport with tickets to see the Reds
this Thursday in the postgame concert to see Old Dominion
as well. Good luck in the meantime, we are still
(07:59):
commercial free. You're waking up with Tiff in the morning
on just one O seven one and good morning. I'm
hoping you have a keyword for me.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I do? Is it?
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Annie? Annie's the keyword? Congratulations gallum stamp in your Sincy
summer passport. You're going to the Reds game Thursday and
you'll see Old Dominion.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Are you on the side of the road. Do you
need help?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I am. I'm at work and I'm working a stop,
so I'm glad to be quiet.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Okay, I understand what's your name with neighborhood? You waken
up a man?
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Really.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Thank you for listening to Tiff in the morning on
the iHeart radio app amongst your job. Thank you, of
course I always welcome that, and I hope you have
a wonderful day and enjoy the concert.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Thank you very much, definitely.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Will it was a little loud when you told me
where you work? Can you repeat it again on what
you're doing?
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Yeah, I actually work at Signature Engines. It's in engine
repair shop.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
So well, hell yeah, you got me on in the garage.
Oh definitely, Oh hell yeah, I love that. Do you
think I should text any back? What do I say?
I would say no, just because I have a grandma
with Alzheimer's, so she could be stay for my mom
all the time, right, and I.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Just play along with it.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Okay, all right, I would say, just.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Don't and let her keep thinking that you're Annie.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Okay, good point, good good take. If you're just walking
into the show, you'll have to get caught up on
the podcast. Just search Tiff in the morning. If you
took an Ellen the Old Dominion tickets and you want
to go to the Reds postgame concert on Thursday, set
a reminder to come home with John John later on
this afternoon. He'll hook you up around three thirty ish.
All right, if you can trade me three minutes. We've
(09:45):
got a big week here in Cincinnati, including Burger Week
and more abby from everything since you will join us
