Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is on with Mario Lopez.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Here we go halfway through the week. Mario, Courtney Lopez.
You're excited to be back in studio, hanging with you
for the next few hours of radio fun. Got a request,
get it in our mentions early at al Mario on
Facebook and X at all.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Mario Lopez on IG. That's right, you heard him.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
Let's we'll take up a fresh case in Cordos coretic
into the buzz to see what is trending. And we're
just a few songs away from honoring a good deed
with a coveted Lopez Award. You are on with Mario
and Courtney Lopez.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
All right, quickly putting the spotlight on someone trying to
do some good in the world.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
You're on, Mario Courtney Lopez. Who's getting our good deed
lopezi this week?

Speaker 2 (00:39):
Honey.

Speaker 4 (00:39):
It is six year old pim Neil who set what
seemed like an impossible goal to sell one hundred thousand
boxes in a single season.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
So she started by knocking on doors in her Pittsburgh
hall a four one two neighborhood and handing out flyers,
selling five thousand boxes. Then she posted a video on TikTok,
hoping it would give her a little boost. That quickly
racked up more than five million views, and Pim's sales
took off, and now the Kindergartener has sold more than

(01:10):
one hundred thousand boxes, something no girl scout her age
had ever done before. She says she'd eventually like to
reach one hundred and eighty thousand sold, which is the
all time record for any age, and she has a
month left to pull it off. I think if anybody
can do it, it is that Pittsburgh girl, Pim Neil.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
Where's that Pittsburgh neighborhood? I wonder you know what I
don't know? That is some serious sales skills right there.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
A little pimod She's cute to U saw a picture
of her?

Speaker 3 (01:39):
She's cute. Good luck.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Mario Lopez will be right back.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
On Layo Courtney Lopez keeping the music coming your way
as Cordo breaks down a few of the new things
hitting TV and streaming.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
It is season two on Hulu of Dinosaur, a Scottish
comedy drama series streaming on Hulu in the US that
follows Nina MacArthur, played by Ashley's story, an autistic woman
in her thirties with a passion for paleontology. Season two
picks up eight months after the events of the first season.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
There is a premise for you, an autistic woman with
a passion for paleontology.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Okay, Lost Women of Alaska on HBO Max. We don't
know where they are. It's a three part true crime
doc series which examines the crisis of violence against Indigenous
women in Alaska, focusing on the brutal murders of two
Alaska Native women, Veronica Abacek killed in twenty eighteen and
Kathleen Joe Henry killed in twenty nineteen.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
That was the exact premise for True Detectives last season
with Jodie Foster.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
That's right, the Frozen one.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Yes, yes, that is We stopped Aby, so we finished it.
We finished, So you finished it.

Speaker 4 (02:48):
ABC has a series premiere of their new Scrubs reboot,
and CBS is kicking off the fiftieth season of Survivor,
with Billie Eilish making a cameo in tonight's premiere. This
a bill that is random because I don't see her
out in nature trying to survive.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
Right, you're all Mario Courtney Lopez few more songs. You
got to take up a new case in Quarto's chords.
If you find yourself in a sticky situation, maybe in
a dispute with a friend or coworker, or just want
some advice, slide into our DMS over on ig.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
I'm with Mario Lopez and Judge Cordo could help you out. O.

Speaker 5 (03:23):
All right, hang time a third person.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Cordo Court is coming up next.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
All right, time to serve up to justice. You're all
Mario Courtney Lopez. All rise and welcome Judge Courtney Quardo Lopez.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
It's time for Cordo's Court. Too much, too much.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
Today's case comes from Bethany Torque, and she says, my
husband and I got married and had kids really young.
We're now in our mid thirties, and lately I'm beginning
to suspect he's lying to me about where he's going.
He's always gone to the gym five or six days
a week, but until about a month ago, he would
only be gone two hours. Then it became three hours
on a few days of each week. I want to
ask why he's later, it's always some random excuse. I

(04:03):
stopped asking because I started feeling like I was being
a nag. I've never had these kinds of trust issues,
but I can't shake this gut feeling that something is off.
If he's working out three hours a day and not
losing weight or getting dial.

Speaker 6 (04:15):
Are you seeing fitness progress correct?

Speaker 3 (04:19):
I think you need to ask that.

Speaker 5 (04:20):
There's evidence there, like whose quarter is this? Sorry? Okay,
Joey's got control. We're out of control.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
No, Bethany, he's up to no good. And you know what,
if I were you, I would retaliate. You go to
the gym, get yourself feeling good and get yourself a
young man.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
That's awful advice.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
Amazing advice.

Speaker 3 (04:45):

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Coming up you a Mario Courtney Lopez music rolls on
after some quick buzz. Not only is Tom Hanks returning
to the big screen as Woody and Toy Story five,
but he's also about to play a president.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Yes, where it is.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Hanks is set to play Abraham Lincoln in the upcoming
film adaptation Lincoln in the Bordo.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
All right, the story will center on Lincoln's relationship with
his recently deceased eleven year old son, and we'll explore
themes of love, empathy, and human capacity in the face
of unimaginable grief through the mix of stop emotion, animation
and live action. How this was so long ago? How
much information do you actually think they have?

Speaker 2 (08:02):
Well, if they know that his son passed at eleven,
which I was not aware of, by the way, I
guess they can have some creative liberty there.

Speaker 5 (08:10):
Huh, what an.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
Interesting take to have.

Speaker 5 (08:13):
The motion animation is a little odd.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well that and just this premise you're not going to
the war.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
You're not going, but you're going with that particular all right,
all right, let's.

fast food in the parking lot is similar to yournals,
like please don't pull up next to me. I'm doing
my business, so please get law don't stare at me.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
How does Liza know by journals? Okay, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (09:05):
That is a good question. I think I do agree
with the food thing. Yeah, like that is weird.

Speaker 3 (09:10):
Yes, but she used a very male no.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
Yeah, that's something that she probably wouldn't have known.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
Yeah, yeah, but I'm sure you heard it from brother's
husband or what have you. But yeah, you're right, that
is a good point. Liza, Let me eat in peace

Mario Courtney Lopez here ran across a fascinating conversation online
that I want to get to in a secment. First,
Cordo's gonna try to make a slap with another mom joke.
All right, let's hear it.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
What you got, honey?

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Well, I just wanted to apologize for being out yesterday.
I had to be hospitalized for being cringe. They put
me in the aukward Oh.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
My god, you go now, Oh my gosh. Speak. I'm
just kidding speaking of cringe to put you in the word.

Speaker 5 (10:33):
How was the delivery? You didn't yell at me about

Speaker 3 (10:35):
That was pretty good. That was pretty good.

Speaker 5 (10:37):
Hey, don't bring it up. He didn't bring it up.
Don't bring it up, right.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Yo, Mario Courtney Lopez.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
I ran across this clip from Justin La Boy's podcast Respectfully.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
He had his girlfriend Coy lay.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
On, and she had an interesting response when he asked,
what do you consider cheating liking photos?

Speaker 7 (10:56):
Is cheating.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
Why are you shaking your head?

Speaker 7 (11:04):
I don't think that's cheating. Why I don't think liking
a photos that's that's why?

Speaker 3 (11:10):
Tell me why I don't want to chase it?

Speaker 5 (11:12):
That why.

Speaker 7 (11:16):
Because you could be scrolling on your page and accidentally
like a picture.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Yes, you accidentally liked the picture. That's happened to me before, honey,
and by the way, that happens.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
To you every days.

Speaker 5 (11:30):
I got fat thumbs.

Speaker 3 (11:31):
Here's the thing, it's not cheating.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
Maybe it's uncomfortable or you find it a little a
little awkward, you don't like it, but come on, social
media has made people so insecure, and for no reason.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
What the heck do you have an Instagram for if
not for likes? And what have you?

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Not?

Speaker 3 (11:49):
That I even like anybody? Because I do.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
It's usually an accident that one here it is and
the new repost button.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
He has accidentally reposted that, yes, repost.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
His accident it is.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
But come on, you know it's not technically look on
the same lines as cheating. Let's be honest.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
It's it's whatever.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
It's it's an insecurity that you have if you feel
that you need to like I don't go sit there.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
And like, I don't like anybody. I don't go like
anybody on there. That's not true, but you do you boo,
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
More.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
Mario Lopez coming up Amaro Courtney Lopez music rolls on
right after a quick digital pit stop and on Maria
dot com, so Quardo can tell us what's trending. O.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
Rebecca Gayheart has broken her silence on husband Eric Dane's
recent passing.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Yeah, obviously very sad and they have two little girls,
so prayers to them.

Speaker 4 (12:36):
Hillary Duff speaks out and breaks down the most lonely
part about her rift with sister Hayley.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
Was not familiar with this. That's kind of sad.

Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yes, I didn't know that it's really.

Speaker 5 (12:45):
Been going on for a long time.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
Wow, that's sad.

Speaker 4 (12:48):
And also why Ariana Grande is sharing some praise for
her unstoppable friend Cynthia.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Arrivo now that we don't see them together all the time.
It's very different in their behaviors, in the way they're
acting now too, and their looks and everything. But okay,
they still got love for each other.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
They're unstoppable. Olmoro dot com for all that.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Mario Courtney Lopez here with a quick look at the
buzz reading Rainbow make it a comeback with a twenty
four episode order from Sony.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
Michael the Librarian will return.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
His host The show, which debuted on a YouTube channel Kutzuko,
aims to encourage kids to become avid readers with new
episodes and interactive content.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
Talks are underway to sell the full season to TV
networks and streaming services, continuing the legacy of the original
series that ran from nineteen eighty three to two thousand
and six on PBS.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Well, some bad news.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
If you're gen Z, you're on Mario and Courtney Lopez.
Apparently gen Z has become the first generation in history
to have a lower IQ than their parents, meaning they've
recorded a lower average IQ and cognitive test scores in
millennials in gen X.

Speaker 4 (13:54):
Experts link this shift to heavy dependence on AI tools, smartphones,
and short form digital content. Studies highlight reduced critical thinking,
memory and sustained attention, with global data indicating cognitive declines
beginning around twenty ten.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
This is not good news, and I hope it doesn't
continue with future generations because then we're pretty much starting
from scratch again.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
More Mario Lopez coming up.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
What I'm Mario Courtney Lopez.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
So you ever have a heart time choosing something to
watch on TV? Well, apparently most couples do. In fact,
news survey says ninety percent of couples spend more time
trying to choose something to watch than actually watching something.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
That was us last night. Well, we've gotten.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Pretty good actually because we narrow down to a couple.
Then we just got to decide.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
From that couple.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
However, our Apple TV wasn't working and we had to
go back to old school DirectTV, which we ended up
just watching the news and you fell asleep anyway, so
it doesn't matter. Well, yeah, al, Mario Courtney Lopez digging
into the bus because Hannah Montana has been spotted in

(15:23):
the WI.

Cyrus the breakout start she became.

Speaker 3 (16:10):
But I like the fact that she's going back to
do it. It's cool.

Speaker 4 (16:13):
Oh, it's cool.

Speaker 5 (16:14):
Well Billy Raby there though, Oh yeah, didn't he play

Speaker 3 (17:00):
Amaro Lopez.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
Paleontologists have discovered fossils of a new dinosaur species deep
in the Sahara Desert, marking the first indisputable evidence of
a new Spinosaurus species found in more than a century.
The carnivorous dinosaur, named Spinosaurus mirabellus, meaning astonishing in Latin,
was roughly the size of a Torontosaurus rex and roam
the Earth approximately ninety five million years ago. Okay, sure,

(17:24):
and I can't believe we're just discovering it now.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
This is insane.

Speaker 4 (17:28):
The dinosaur's Distinctive features include interlocking rows of teeth designed
for catching slippery fish. Sereno, who is a guy who
who found him and discovered him, plans to display replicas
of Spinosaurus mirabilus skull and skimmatar shaped headcrest at the
Chicago Children's Museum beginning on March first.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
What a trip you discover a whole new species. Now
Jurassic Park has to incorporate this because it sounds awesome.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
What I think is crazy is you never know where
you're walking, what truly is beneath the surface for Mario Lopez.
