Some of the new emojis dropping with iOS twenty six,
A trombone, a treasure chest, a Harry creature on Apple
Core an Orca ballet dancers in one called distorted Face.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Joan Mario Lopez and some really sad news yesterday, Kelly
Clarkson's ex husband, Brandon Blackstock, has passed away.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
Apparently he was privately battling.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Cancer for the past three years, and he passed away
peacefully with his family by his side. Sources to say
this is the reason Kelly recently canceled her Vegas shows
and took him away from her daytime.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
Talk show as well.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Kelly, of course had two children with Brandon while they
were married for seven years.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
She is really good about huming her private.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
Life private, and people were running with rumors that she
was going to quit her show and going to focus
on music. And you never know what people are going through.
That's why people just sort of go with any sort
of narrative, and she never corrected anyone. She made one
statement saying she's dealing with stuff and unfortunately a little time,
just speculated right, and then this happens. It really should

(03:59):
put people in check and make it think like, you
know what, Let's pump the brakes before we start jumping
to conclusions. God bless Kelly Carson and her family.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Right now, Mario Lopez will be right back.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
If yours have it, parents, you may be wondering what
to do with the kids on these hot summer days.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Well, here are some ideas.

Speaker 4 (08:25):
Well. You can keep them entertaining comfortable at indoor ice
skating or roller rinks.

Speaker 6 (08:29):
That's fun.

Speaker 3 (08:30):
That's something we haven't done. We might have to hit
that up.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
Won't be doing it either. You can also google arcades,
indoor playgrounds and trampoline parks. Our kids love. They love
the Tramplin, the trampoline place, they love the arcades. A
classic air conditioned bowling alley is good for all ages.
And of course you can always catch a movie because
it does give you the parents some silent time if
you will. Rigo does their summer movies, Express AMC has

(08:56):
Summer Movie Camp, and Cinemark has their summer movie Clubhouse.

Your topic today is washing the bottom of your feet.
I'm pro washing your pro washing the bottom of your feet?

Speaker 2 (10:11):
So it being summertime, everyone is running around barefoot. If
you're running around barefoot indoor outdoor, it's good to feel
grounded out there. However, your feet do get a little funky,
so you do need to wash them, specifically the bottom.
I go next level and get pedicures.

Speaker 6 (10:27):
Missus Lopez.

Speaker 3 (10:28):
We don't live in New York City.

Speaker 6 (10:40):
Say, those motions of your hand, what mister Lopez.

Speaker 3 (10:44):
Wow, it's flip flop.

Speaker 6 (10:46):
Whether it's sandal season, the feed are exposed. You need
to get in there, especially if you do self tanner
like someone. I know, it looks like a nasty stain
on the bottom. Well, see the problem is, you're you're done. No, no,
you're done. She has she has a rebubfal you're done,

(11:06):
you're done, You're done.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
I don't put self tanner on the bottom of my feet,
so oh, I.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Know that's why it looks right.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
So I don't need to scrub a dub dub three
men in a tub like how they used to on
the bottom of my feet.

Speaker 6 (11:20):
I think we all lost.

Speaker 1 (11:22):

Speaker 3 (12:22):
Camara Courtney Lopez wasted no time getting right to the
comment of the week. Who's this one from? Honey?

Speaker 4 (12:27):
This is from at Dolores Delores. She's like three hours
in there. After the era of malls ends, eventually someone
will say what if we shopped online but in real life,
and then malls will be reinvented.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
There are literally only a few handful of malls that
are hanging in there and actually thriving. Shout out to
my boy Rick Caruso, who makes an experience these sort
of outdoor malls with.

Speaker 6 (12:54):
Ice skating rings and fountains and trolleyss.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
And trolleys and the whole.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
But the old school mall like I grew up going to,
like a Plaza Benita.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
Those are old relics.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
It's hard to find which used to be so much
fun back in the day. But I think they will
continue just to develop outside with more experiences.
