which he's calling the start of a new era. We're
gonna be playing Disease all through the day to celebrate
new music Friday, so make sure you're one of the
first to hear it. Courtney Lopez time to learn a
new live act. What is the topic today at Courtney's Corner?
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Honey, vitamins and minerals. Two things that our bodies are
trying to tell us that we're low of when we
need certain nutrients. So look, this is a huge one
for men and women. If you can't sleep, you need magnesium.
Magnesium is so important, so eat an avocado. Okay, that
(01:43):
will help with that. If you have low energy, you
need iron, eat some raisin. If you feel weak, you
need zinc, so eat some dark chocolate.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Oh I feel weak every night.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
If you wake up tired, you need potassium, so drink
coconut water or you can eat banana right. If you
have a headache, you need sodium, so drink water with
pink him and lay and salt. And if you feel sad,
which I do all the time, you need vitamin D.
Get some sunlight. Vitamin D is so important, they usually say,
(02:15):
when you first wake up, go outside and just like
spend a couple of minutes. Yeah, just bask in the
sun and it kind of feeds your body.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Come back for Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Mario Lopez here with a quick reminder that the iHeart
Radio has a channel specifically for all the Halloween heads
out there, completely commercial free pack with spooky hits, great
throwbacks and scary anthems. Just search for Halloween Radio on
your Heart Radio app, or search for my personal Halloween
party list. What about Mario Lopez here? Today's guest has
(02:47):
twenty five Grammy Awards, which is more than any other
male solo artist. It is mister Stevie Wonder. He is
back with a new single, but also want to ask
him about the recent We Are the World Doc. Stevie's
gonna be zooming in have a few more songs, sobron
Mario Lopez joining me now on Zoom twenty five time
Grammy winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer legend himself,
(03:08):
mister Stevie Wonder, Welcome to the show.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
How you doing Mario, I'm doing well.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Thank you. So much for taking the time and congratulations
on the new single, Can We Fix Our Nation's Broken Heart?
That encompasses a lot right there. What inspired you to
write this, Stevie.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
I started working on this song about maybe five years ago,
the idea and just looking at where the world was,
and you know, you have all this misinformation you have,
you know, things that have nothing to do with democracy,
and you have a mindset of something that is not
going to work and will not bring us closer together.
(03:46):
But I think that it's so possible if we come
together as the United People and really commit ourselves to
doing something about it. Stop talking about it and being
about it and doing about it. But anyway, I started
the idea. I had the idea five years ago, so
and I had the title and all that melody. So
(04:09):
I did a demo, and about say three years ago,
I met this person, Molly Bonna, who was actually a vocalist,
and then train him and all that, and I said, listen,
I know you write songs, but I have something I've
been messing with, and I from the songs that I've
(04:31):
heard that you've done, I think it'd be a kind
of good thing for us to collaborate on this song.
He said, I'd love to give it to me and
let me see that I got and I heard the
lyric that he did along with the things that I
had said, and it just worked, wonder Plane, And so
I decided that I wanted to make it a single,
(04:52):
to really make it my love song to America, to
make it something that really brings people to things. Okay,
we do have this, and we do have that, but
we can if we speak with our spirits and with
our truths, we can fix it.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
So there you go.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
No, I appreciate that. With the new single is can
we fix our nation's broken heart? Let's take a quick
break and we're gonna come back with Stevie Wonder more.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Mario Lopez coming up, Mario Lopez here.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
My guest today is Stevie Wonder. And is there a
particular Grammy of the twenty five that you've won that
means the most to you, Stevie?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
The Grammy and the first Grammy that I received, yeah,
was for Superstition. Yeah, and I remember I gave it
to my mother. Oh, that is awesome. I think they
have a video of that.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
By then.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
I give it to my mother, and it was because
you know just what my mother meant to me. Yeah,
it will always mean to me. So you know I
gave it to us. I said, you know, if the
ever I do receive one, the first one goes to you.
And that's what happened.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
That is awesome. I danced my samba on Dancing with
the Stars to Superstition and I got a perfect ten.
So it's always a spurf. That's always a special song
for me.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
I love that.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Yeah, all right, Steve, you hold on mom, we gotta
play some more music. What Amara Lopez here? I got
Stevie wonder on zoom with me. Is there any particular
artists that you keep up with from today? Anyone impress
you recently?
Speaker 3 (06:28):
You know? I like Ken Lamar a lot, a lot,
a lot of that. There are a lot of people
that are out there that I like the different songs
that they've done.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
I'm a lover of music. So there is not any
genre that I can tell you I don't like. Yes,
So as much as I may have or inspire inspire
other people, they inspire me too. That's awesome. I listened
to the voices of singing the way that they do it.
(07:00):
I just want to hear from me more artists, the
young artist to music. That kind of motivates people, you know,
particularly in this time where we have so much misinformation.
But to me, the greatest motivation that moves us forward
(07:20):
is us hearing people singing about it, talking about how
through music we can create the positivity that we need
right but as well talking about things that we need
to confront and deal with.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Music is powerful. We got more to talk about, Stevie,
but right now I got to play some music. You're
al Mario Lopez. Been hanging out all hour with Stevie
Wonder and in the Weird of the World Dot, which
was excellent. I remember, I believe it was Swahili you
were trying to incorporate at one point, and.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Well, you know that was a whole mixed up. Listen
the whole things crazy. The reality is I wasn't trying
to get them to sing and swat because in uh
Ethiopia they don't mean him, don't speak spy helly, they
speak I'm hotty. So I was. I had a friend
(08:11):
of mine, Abdula had friends as well, you know, I
became friends with and we woke them up in the
wee hours in the morning in the morning, is that
whole thing lasted all those hours, right?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Stuff?
Speaker 3 (08:25):
But I wanted to come and kind of sink something,
and I'm hotting and then somebody saying, oh, he wants
to tease teaching me don't speak, I don't know, crazy whatever,
But you know, come on.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
That's funny. That's so great. Thank you for telling me that. Well,
got to take a quick break, but there's still more
to talk about. Hold time. We got more with Stevie
Wonder on the Way.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
You're the full interview now at on with Mario dot Com.
More Mario Lopez on the Way.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Mario Lopez here wrapping things up with Stevie Wonder and
last question, you were hanging out with the Obamas this uh,
this past week. How many presidents in world leaders you
think you've met throughout your career.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Oh my god. The first president that I met Nixon,
and I think I met most of the president since I,
you know, was a little boy's Unfortunately, I was not
able to meet President Kennedy. I wasn't able to meet
Robert Kennedy. But I have such love and respect for
(09:27):
the family and their commitment that they made and what
they trying to do with this nation, and I think
in this time what we have, this crazy confusion. We
have to have a conscious mind set of people. What
if a party they belonged to, understanding that the most
(09:49):
important thing really is not that party but the people.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
You're exactly right. I'd vote for you, Stevie.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I'm trying to get you in there day.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Come on, don't you know what ya? We just might
have to wait and see on that one. I appreciate that.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Hey, I got friends, you got friends.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
There we go do it. I love it, I love it.
I so appreciate you taking the time, uh to speak
with me today and listen. Can we fix our nation's
broken heart? Is on iHeartRadio or wherever you listen to music.
Please go to ALLMRI dot com for tickets and tour
dates for mister Stevie Wonder Stevie, thank you so much
for hanging out today.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
And thank you and I look forward to seeing you
very soon.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Yes, likewise, thank you, sir. What al Mario Lopez here
Ian McKellen bringing Gandalf back to the world of Lord
of the Rings. Two new movies are in the works.
(10:52):
One is called The Hunt for Gollum. The second is
yet to be confirmed. Andy Serkis, who plays Gollum, will
be directing the first one. That's kind of cool. Orlando
Bloom and Bigo Mortenson both expressed interest in returning. Ooh,
I like this, yalmar Corney Lopez. Time for your comments?
What you got today? Honey?
Speaker 1 (11:11):
This is from at mis Marty G. And she said,
what was your favorite moment from Eltoro's career?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Mis Marty G is talking about the legend himself, Fernando Vealezuela,
who just passed away at sixty three years old. Too young,
way way too young. And I saw him not that
long ago, and he looked incredibly healthy. Cause of death
still unknown, but it's just so sad. I actually got
little emotional and was very sad. One of the main
reasons why I'm a Dodger fan. Incredible story. He is
(11:39):
the only pitcher to ever win the cy Young Award,
Rookie of the Year and World Series MVP all in
the same year. And he was only nineteen years old
when he got the NOD, and I think he turned
twenty when it was time for the World Series. He
used to pitch a lot of complete games. My favorite
moment is probably Game three of the first World's Series,
(12:01):
where the Dodgers ironically played the Yankees.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Oh, it's a sign.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
I think it is a sign. And he threw one
hundred and forty nine pitches that game. If a pitcher
these days, nobody does that. If they get close to
one hundred, they pull you immediately. Win You're in the
nineties immediately. But he almost threw. He threw a game
and a half and they won. They ended up winning
the series. Very very impressive. He'll be missed. God bless him.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Hit us up on Twitter, On with Mario and hang
on more Mario Lopez on the Way.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Ro Mario Courtney lopezz got some celabs turning a year older.
We're gonna try to guess the agent. Who do we
got mister hotline bling Drake? Oh, Kendrick's boy.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Okay, Drake is forty one.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
I think Drake's till pretty young. I'm gonna say thirty five,
thirty eight, Ohky from the hit The Boy Is Mine Monica.
Monica has got to be forty two, forty five, forty four. Oh, okay,
We're gonna flank at him. And from White Lotus Season
two and Amadeus F. Murray Abraham, great actor from Scarface two?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Which one was this some white lotus?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
He was Michael Imperioli's dad.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Oh okay, yes, okay. Then he is seventy four.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Seventy nine, eighty five.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Wow, are you looking good?
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Murray F looking good at.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Or Mario Lopez coming up?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Mario Lopez here. And there's something to celebrate every single day,
and today is National Baloney Day. I haven't had a
maloney sandwich. I can't even tell you the last time
I had a boloney sandwich was a staple growing up.
But for some reason, you transition, I think from a
kid and you you go from beloney like ham. Yeah,
you don't really go back to it. I think the
last time I had it was like fried blooney. Oh yeah,
(13:50):
well that's good. That's different. What a Mario Lopez here.
I want to give a shout out to Jelly Roll,
who is committed to his fitness journey. He has now
dropped one hundred pounds from his peak at five hundred.
He's dropped thirty in the last six months. He says
when he goes out on tour in twenty twenty five,
he's going to be completely unrecognizable. Good for him, Congrats
(14:12):
you're all Mario, Courtney Lopez put on our thinking caps
this time for Courtney's a random question. What you got, honey?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
This was inspired by Sunday Night's football game. Yeah, if
you were caught on camera eating boogers, would you admit
to it or would you deny it?
Speaker 4 (14:27):
So funny. This is a reference, of course, to Aaron
Rodgers being caught on camera to what looks like he's
eating his boogers. I don't think he has, but I
couldn't believe it was a headline and I posted it,
and the headline said Aaron Rodgers denies eating boogers after
Sunday night football video goes viral, to which I said,
what am I reading? That's a real headliner?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Can I just tell you something though, I always, when
I'm in my car see men men at red lights
picking their nose and eating it.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
I I'm gonna throw up in my mouth, really eating it.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Under But they're not invisible. Just because you're at a
red light doesn't mean you disappear. I still don't want
to see your own car. I still don't want to
see you picking your nose. Yes, it's disgusting.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
More Mario Lopez coming up?
Speaker 4 (15:22):
What all? Mario Lopez here, And there's just a couple
of days left to catch up on this year's iHeart
Radio Music Festival. It's currently streaming on Hulu, but that
goes away on Sunday. Got to see the performances from
Halsey the weekend. Whence the fanie. It's one of the
only places to see them perform their newest singles live,
So head over to Hulu now. Maria Lopez here, and
(15:44):
we got a new message in our inbox courtesy of
the talkback button on the iHeart Radio app.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Let's take a listen.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Hi, this is Jody Heflin, an incredibly, incredibly beautiful wife.
I'm wondering if you could tell me there's a song
that has like fish parody that it's a really funny song.
I'm trying. I can't find it on anywhere. If you
could let me know where that is, I would really
appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Thanks Jody, Thank you so much for the message. It
was nice to hear from you. And I think you're
talking about the eighties song Wet Dream from comedian Kip
Data search trottin let me know if that's it and listen.
If you have something you want to say, just hit
the talk back button at the bottom of your heart
radio app Yo, Mario Corney Lopez. Time for one last thing.
(16:29):
I posted this headline that I thought was pretty interesting
just to get reaction from women specifically, and the headline
read men stress women out more than kids, says new study.
Relationship expert and parents share their thoughts, to which I said,
I'm convinced that a kid wrote this article. My wife
decided to say, Oh, I don't know you and Santino
(16:50):
are a close tie.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
I feel like I am pretty low maintenance. I beg
your pardon. I'm always in a good mood. I am
so easy to please. I just feed me and let
me get some sleep, and I'm good to go.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
And you know, so, maybe it wasn't like your throwback
guy that you thought earlier.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
But let me just say there has been many times
where I have understood Sherry Peppini.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
Wow, really well, not because of me. You have such
a rough life, honey. Oh you're so funny, You're so yeah.
I mean, I don't know how true this study is,
but I do sort of see the Mario Sonny comparison.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Oh cold as Ice More Mario Lopez on the way.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
All right, I am out of here, but I'm back

But to me, the greatest motivation that moves us forward
(07:20):
is us hearing people singing about it, talking about how
through music we can create the positivity that we need
right but as well talking about things that we need
to confront and deal with.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Music is powerful. We got more to talk about, Stevie,
but right now I got to play some music. You're
al Mario Lopez. Been hanging out all hour with Stevie
Wonder and in the Weird of the World Dot, which
was excellent. I remember, I believe it was Swahili you
were trying to incorporate at one point, and.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Well, you know that was a whole mixed up. Listen
the whole things crazy. The reality is I wasn't trying
to get them to sing and swat because in uh
Ethiopia they don't mean him, don't speak spy helly, they
speak I'm hotty. So I was. I had a friend
(08:11):
of mine, Abdula had friends as well, you know, I
became friends with and we woke them up in the
wee hours in the morning in the morning, is that
whole thing lasted all those hours, right?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Stuff?
Speaker 3 (08:25):
But I wanted to come and kind of sink something,
and I'm hotting and then somebody saying, oh, he wants
to tease teaching me don't speak, I don't know, crazy whatever,
But you know, come on.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
That's funny. That's so great. Thank you for telling me that. Well,
got to take a quick break, but there's still more
to talk about. Hold time. We got more with Stevie
Wonder on the Way.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
You're the full interview now at on with Mario dot Com.
More Mario Lopez on the Way.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Mario Lopez here wrapping things up with Stevie Wonder and
last question, you were hanging out with the Obamas this uh,
this past week. How many presidents in world leaders you
think you've met throughout your career.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Oh my god. The first president that I met Nixon,
and I think I met most of the president since I,
you know, was a little boy's Unfortunately, I was not
able to meet President Kennedy. I wasn't able to meet
Robert Kennedy. But I have such love and respect for
(09:27):
the family and their commitment that they made and what
they trying to do with this nation, and I think
in this time what we have, this crazy confusion. We
have to have a conscious mind set of people. What
if a party they belonged to, understanding that the most
(09:49):
important thing really is not that party but the people.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
You're exactly right. I'd vote for you, Stevie.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I'm trying to get you in there day.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I love it.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Come on, don't you know what ya? We just might
have to wait and see on that one. I appreciate that.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Hey, I got friends, you got friends.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
There we go do it. I love it, I love it.
I so appreciate you taking the time, uh to speak
with me today and listen. Can we fix our nation's
broken heart? Is on iHeartRadio or wherever you listen to music.
Please go to ALLMRI dot com for tickets and tour
dates for mister Stevie Wonder Stevie, thank you so much
for hanging out today.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
And thank you and I look forward to seeing you
very soon.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Yes, likewise, thank you, sir. What al Mario Lopez here
Ian McKellen bringing Gandalf back to the world of Lord
of the Rings. Two new movies are in the works.
(10:52):
One is called The Hunt for Gollum. The second is
yet to be confirmed. Andy Serkis, who plays Gollum, will
be directing the first one. That's kind of cool. Orlando
Bloom and Bigo Mortenson both expressed interest in returning. Ooh,
I like this, yalmar Corney Lopez. Time for your comments?
What you got today? Honey?
Speaker 1 (11:11):
This is from at mis Marty G. And she said,
what was your favorite moment from Eltoro's career?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Mis Marty G is talking about the legend himself, Fernando Vealezuela,
who just passed away at sixty three years old. Too young,
way way too young. And I saw him not that
long ago, and he looked incredibly healthy. Cause of death
still unknown, but it's just so sad. I actually got
little emotional and was very sad. One of the main
reasons why I'm a Dodger fan. Incredible story. He is
(11:39):
the only pitcher to ever win the cy Young Award,
Rookie of the Year and World Series MVP all in
the same year. And he was only nineteen years old
when he got the NOD, and I think he turned
twenty when it was time for the World Series. He
used to pitch a lot of complete games. My favorite
moment is probably Game three of the first World's Series,
(12:01):
where the Dodgers ironically played the Yankees.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Oh, it's a sign.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
I think it is a sign. And he threw one
hundred and forty nine pitches that game. If a pitcher
these days, nobody does that. If they get close to
one hundred, they pull you immediately. Win You're in the
nineties immediately. But he almost threw. He threw a game
and a half and they won. They ended up winning
the series. Very very impressive. He'll be missed. God bless him.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Hit us up on Twitter, On with Mario and hang
on more Mario Lopez on the Way.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Ro Mario Courtney lopezz got some celabs turning a year older.
We're gonna try to guess the agent. Who do we
got mister hotline bling Drake? Oh, Kendrick's boy.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Okay, Drake is forty one.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
I think Drake's till pretty young. I'm gonna say thirty five,
thirty eight, Ohky from the hit The Boy Is Mine Monica.
Monica has got to be forty two, forty five, forty four. Oh, okay,
We're gonna flank at him. And from White Lotus Season
two and Amadeus F. Murray Abraham, great actor from Scarface two?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Which one was this some white lotus?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
He was Michael Imperioli's dad.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Oh okay, yes, okay. Then he is seventy four.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Seventy nine, eighty five.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Wow, are you looking good?
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Murray F looking good at.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Or Mario Lopez coming up?
Speaker 4 (13:27):
Mario Lopez here. And there's something to celebrate every single day,
and today is National Baloney Day. I haven't had a
maloney sandwich. I can't even tell you the last time
I had a boloney sandwich was a staple growing up.
But for some reason, you transition, I think from a
kid and you you go from beloney like ham. Yeah,
you don't really go back to it. I think the
last time I had it was like fried blooney. Oh yeah,
(13:50):
well that's good. That's different. What a Mario Lopez here.
I want to give a shout out to Jelly Roll,
who is committed to his fitness journey. He has now
dropped one hundred pounds from his peak at five hundred.
He's dropped thirty in the last six months. He says
when he goes out on tour in twenty twenty five,
he's going to be completely unrecognizable. Good for him, Congrats
(14:12):
you're all Mario, Courtney Lopez put on our thinking caps
this time for Courtney's a random question. What you got, honey?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Well?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
This was inspired by Sunday Night's football game. Yeah, if
you were caught on camera eating boogers, would you admit
to it or would you deny it?
Speaker 4 (14:27):
So funny. This is a reference, of course, to Aaron
Rodgers being caught on camera to what looks like he's
eating his boogers. I don't think he has, but I
couldn't believe it was a headline and I posted it,
and the headline said Aaron Rodgers denies eating boogers after
Sunday night football video goes viral, to which I said,
what am I reading? That's a real headliner?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Can I just tell you something though, I always, when
I'm in my car see men men at red lights
picking their nose and eating it.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
I I'm gonna throw up in my mouth, really eating it.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Under But they're not invisible. Just because you're at a
red light doesn't mean you disappear. I still don't want
to see your own car. I still don't want to
see you picking your nose. Yes, it's disgusting.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
More Mario Lopez coming up?
Speaker 4 (15:22):
What all? Mario Lopez here, And there's just a couple
of days left to catch up on this year's iHeart
Radio Music Festival. It's currently streaming on Hulu, but that
goes away on Sunday. Got to see the performances from
Halsey the weekend. Whence the fanie. It's one of the
only places to see them perform their newest singles live,
So head over to Hulu now. Maria Lopez here, and
(15:44):
we got a new message in our inbox courtesy of
the talkback button on the iHeart Radio app.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Let's take a listen.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Hi, this is Jody Heflin, an incredibly, incredibly beautiful wife.
I'm wondering if you could tell me there's a song
that has like fish parody that it's a really funny song.
I'm trying. I can't find it on anywhere. If you
could let me know where that is, I would really
appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Thanks Jody, Thank you so much for the message. It
was nice to hear from you. And I think you're
talking about the eighties song Wet Dream from comedian Kip
Data search trottin let me know if that's it and listen.
If you have something you want to say, just hit
the talk back button at the bottom of your heart
radio app Yo, Mario Corney Lopez. Time for one last thing.
(16:29):
I posted this headline that I thought was pretty interesting
just to get reaction from women specifically, and the headline
read men stress women out more than kids, says new study.
Relationship expert and parents share their thoughts, to which I said,
I'm convinced that a kid wrote this article. My wife
decided to say, Oh, I don't know you and Santino
(16:50):
are a close tie.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
I feel like I am pretty low maintenance. I beg
your pardon. I'm always in a good mood. I am
so easy to please. I just feed me and let
me get some sleep, and I'm good to go.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
And you know, so, maybe it wasn't like your throwback
guy that you thought earlier.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
But let me just say there has been many times
where I have understood Sherry Peppini.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
Wow, really well, not because of me. You have such
a rough life, honey. Oh you're so funny, You're so yeah.
I mean, I don't know how true this study is,
but I do sort of see the Mario Sonny comparison.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Oh cold as Ice More Mario Lopez on the way.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
All right, I am out of here, but I'm back
tomorrow with Canadian country singer Owen Wriggling. Plus my wife
and I are going to face off in another fake debate.
Until then, this is Mario Lopez saying good night
