Speaker 2 (00:36):
We got picked up this past Thursday morning at the
same time two cars. Yeah, at five am. Our flights
were leaving at the same time, but we had different airlines.
I'm like, I'm getting picked up in my car.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
It's ridiculous. It's so wild. Well, because he had to go.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
To another airline, maybe they were saying, I we just
didn't think about it.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Yeah, Yeah, And he's in New York shooting The Revenge
of la Oh, which is in the Conjuring Universe, the
sequel to the film The Curse of Lina, which is
an old Mexican folklore about this woman who drowned her
kids because her husband was cheating on her.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
She wanted to get back at them, and then she
kid's fault exactly, but she wanted to hurt him that way,
and so she was sort of sentence. Then she drowned
herself and sentenced purgatory down there haunted net she haunts people,
and yeah, now she haunts people. So it's pretty spooky.
And the first one was pretty good. But I'm proud
of my boy. He's gonna be in that film ironically
with a friend of mine, Jay hernandez Oh. Look at
(01:29):
that they're both in the same film together. And then
he rolls right into another film called Mission Merry Christmas.
Speaker 3 (01:36):

business of Christmas films.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Dominic killing it out.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
There, Nice Flora, Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Mario Lopez here, keeping the music coming your way. As
Fraser tells us about a few new things hitting TV
and streaming.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Netflix begins streaming Splinter Cell death Watch, a series where
I retired Sam Fisher is pulled back into the espionage
world to help a new recruits unravel a global conspiracy
involving a green tech company and the children of a
former adversary.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Blah blah blah ooh, espionage and global conspiracies sounds like
being pulled back in is always pull in.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Of course, AMC and Shutter have the series premiere of
Guts and Glory, an unscripted horror competition series where contestants
face terrifying immersive challenges that tests their fear, skill and intellect.
So fear factor basically fear factor, I think, yeah, but
maybe a little spookier instead of gross. And CBS kicking
off new seasons of in CIS, n CIS Origins, and
(02:30):
NCIS Sydney, while Bravo has the series premiere of Wife
Swap The Real Housewives addition, So when.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
You get a franchise that works, boy, they go in there.
For example, NBC has Chicago PD, Yes, Chicago MED, Chicago Fire,
Chicago Fire, and I believe there's another one, but Chicago's
on lock.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
The Chicago's like all of their emergency services have their
own drama series.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
And CSI at one point was the same thing. Wellsie Si,
then CSI Vegas, there was CSI faiw Orleans.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
There have been franchises of C Side that have shut
down at this point, and they're probably gonna open one
on Mars soon.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And now n cis n cis well obviously Sydney's in Australia,
but n cis origins. H that's interesting.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
I don't understand that one.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
But it's okay on Mario Lopez. As I mentioned earlier
at Kordo is out, so Fraser's gonna step in with
a life hacker too, all right, any.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Hands, these are ways and tips to prevent yourself from
becoming the subject of a dateline episode.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
I got to pay attention to that, back with it
in ten first more music. You're on Mario Lopez, not
for a fresh life hacker too, since Cordo's out, Fraser's
got some for us.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
What you got are these are tips to prevent yourself
from ending up on a dateline episode as the victim.
Okay one. Don't be the life of the party ever.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Right Keith Morrison always says she was the life of
the party.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Just fade into the background. Don't want to be the
life of the party.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It's true.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Never go to a second location. Only go to one
location and back to your house.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Yes, it's always that second location.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Someone's like, oh, hop in my car, we'll just go here. Nope,
it's not gonna end. Well, aparently you don't need to
sleep because bad things happen when you sleep.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Ooh, that's gonna be tough.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Don't go on cruises. You do not.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
But aside from all the drama that's happening on cruises,
it's just, oh my gosh, just the poop cruise alone
wasn't enough to discourage you.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
I still haven't watched that full documentary. Don't visit foreign land.
In fact, don't travel at all.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Well, I know we're gonna be talking to Tony Danza
coming up, but when we were talking off air, he
was telling me about when he was traveling back in
the day. Did you know you didn't need an ID
when you bought a plane ticket. You could just go
with the ticket. He goes, back in the day that
was ID. We're talking the eighties. Yeah, you didn't have
If you just had a ticket, you didn't need if,
(04:40):
he goes, I just went back then you didn't need Ancho,
you didn't need an id and he goes, No, you
just all you had was the paper ticket.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
You just handed them ticket and went in the ticket.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
That was it. And you didn't need an idea.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You didn't have to prove you're the right person. Nope,
in that wild that's insane. Like I kind of remember that.
I have trouble remembering back to like before nine to eleven,
Like I remember, you could go, you could like go
to the gate and quick for them to.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Like you could do all I have to wait for
girls at the gate at the gate, I remember that.
I remember that. I'm saying that missus Lopez not here

Speaker 1 (06:56):
More Mario Lopez coming.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Up, getting back to Tony Danzy was hanging out on
Zoom with us. Mario Lopez here and Tony. You got
a bunch of stuff going on. But first off, you're
in this new movie Reelection. It's a comedy. H looks
pretty funny. What's the premise here?
Speaker 5 (07:09):
It's about a guy, you know, It's like I think
it's relatable. It's about a guy who feels like there
was a moment in his life that didn't go his
way and it changed his whole life. And he's sort
of he's been I play his father, and he's been
sitting around Adam Sawnd this terrific kid, he wrote, directed
and starting a picture. So but he he's he's sitting
(07:32):
around doing nothing. He decides he wants to go back
to high school. And it was the incident was he lost.
He was the student body president freshman, sophomore, junior year,
senior year.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
He gets licked and the.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Guy ends up with his girlfriend and then goes on
to be the governor of the state.
Speaker 6 (07:49):
So his whole life was that was the guy took
his life. And so finally he decided to go back.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
But you know, going back to high school when you're
forty six or whatever he is, know, things have changed. Yeah, yeah,
it's and it's it's a lot of fun. And I
think it's you know, I think you know. One of
the things I worry about a lot is is, you know,
young young generation struggling, uh, you know, to get out
of college. They did everything everybody said they were supposed
(08:17):
to do. They took on a lot of debt and
a lot of cases too, and then they can't find
a job. They can't find they don't they can't live
up to their own expectations. And it's so different from
when even you grow up. I mean, I'm much older
than you, Marrio, but even when you grow up, it
was so much it's so much different than it is now.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
No, you're exactly right. Is that one of the things
that sort of drew you to this role, Tony, the
fact that it was sort of a father son relationship,
and yeah, well I explore that.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
The fathers and relationship really stuck, stuck struck me. And
it also, yeah, this, you know, this is this is
one of those little independent movies that had something to
say too, you know.
Speaker 6 (08:53):
So it's kind of cool.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
It's really I'm I'm pleased with it. I'm really pleased
with it. So I hope people are like it.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I love it, I love it.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Look forward to checking that out, Tony hank Tight. We're
gonna have more coming out. The first one music al

taken it and charted it for a symphony orchestra.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
In other words, going to do the act.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
But instead of having four pieces, you know, my drums, guitar, bass,
in piano, I'm gonna have like sixty nine pieces.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Wow. My band's going to be there too. Of my
band's in there.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Yeah, but I'm playing with a symphony which is at
the Tillis Center on Long Island and Old Brookville in Brookville,
I mean not Old Brookville, Brookville.
Speaker 6 (09:55):
So it's kind of cool. I'm excited.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
You know, it's it's my stopping ground, so I'm going
to see a lot of people, I think.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
So that is I got to get to sing with
a symphony, or that.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Is not your first time getting to do that. I
was just gonna ask twice.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
Before, Mario, I've done it twice before. But it's you know,
it's it's my buggle.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I can't imagine. Oh, that's going to be awesome. Which
that's something you got to see in person right there
for sure. All right, more with Tony Dance on the way,

This one is from at Treylon. If zombies ever attack,
just go to Costco. They have concrete walls, years of
food and supplies, and best of all, the zombies can't
get in without a Costco membership card.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Traylon, that's brilliant.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
That actually is really brilliant. Yes, I mean, I don't
think anyone's going to check for the membership card, but
you're right about all the other things about Costco.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
If the zombies attack, if there's any sort of apocalypse,
you want to head into Costco.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
I like that. More fun on the way on with
Mario Lopez.

to nominate a public school teacher making a difference, giving
him a shot to be one of our next winners,
hooking them up with five thousand dollars to make over
their classroom, which is really cool. So help us continue
to say thank you to the educators shaping our future.
(16:22):
Nominey your favorite teacher right now at almamara dot com
slash teachers. Hi, a little more music, Gonna talk about
the Bigger Man I'm hosting later this week Mario Lopez.
Here in the meantime, Frasers gonna make us think with
a random thought, what do you got.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
When you think about the muffin man? Do you picture
the muffin man as a man who sells muffins or
a muffin with a face.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
The man who sells muffins.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
See, I always pictured it as a muffin with a face.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
No, When they say do you know the muffin man,
the muffin man, I was thinking, like the milkman. You know,
you know the Ian Yeah, because like the milkman.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Well, when you were younger, there was a milkman.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
The milkman and the muffin man should roll together because
muffins would. Milk is a good one too, punch and
we no longer have milkmen or muffin men. No, you
should bring them back, am Mario Lopez. Returning to the
daytime Emmy stage this weekend to host it. It's been
(17:14):
a while. I've hosted it once before.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Maybe twice, I think twice. Yeah, yes, that's right.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
But this time I'm doing it solo. I'm very excited
and nominated for a few Daytime Emmy Awards for my
show Access Daily and as a host for Access Hollywood.
So cross your fingers and prayers up. Hopefully we'll take
home a statuette. It's going down Friday at the Pasadena
Civic Auditorium right here in LA and wish your boy luck.
(17:42):
Onmrio dot com for all the info and how to
check it out.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
More. Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Well, if you're sick of those annoying spam calls, some
good news apples. iOS twenty six has a new call
feature to screen them out. Mario Lopez here. It uses
Siri to ask unknown callers why they're calling before your
phone rings respond. This is our transcribe, and you can
choose to answer, ask more questions, or reject the call.
Go into settings and turn on screen unknown callers. Previously
(18:08):
iPhone users needed third party apps to do this, but
now it is built in.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
For some reason, spam callers love my phone.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Oh, mind too.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
It's relentless all day and I block them and somehow
they still come on.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
They just get to use different numbers.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
They just use different numbers. It is the band of
my existence. Mario Lopez here at getting close to the
end of our radio fund. Just one last thing to
get to, plus probably enough time to play a request
or two before I get out of here at all
on Mario on X all Mario Lopezz. Time to head
home for the night, but not before we get to
one last thing. We lost another legend this week. Diane
(18:45):
Keaton passed away at the age of seventy nine. And
this has been a really tough year for celebs that
we we love passing and wow, this one seemed to
come out of nowhere. Only about a year and a
half ago I interviewed her for her last project, and
I believe it was the last time she did an
interview promoting a project, and she was the sweet as always.
(19:08):
She looked great and it hasn't been disclosed on why
she passed. She was maybe battling something that we were
not aware of. I don't know, but she was always
very very nice and gracious with her time and will
be known of course, for her brilliant work in the
Godfather movies Annie Hall, for which she won an Oscar
(19:29):
Father of the Bride, First Wives Club, so many great films,
her films with Woody Allen. She leaves behind quite the
body of work, and she also leaves behind two kids
that she adopted in her fifties, So God bless her
and her family during this time.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Poor Mario Lopez.

Lopez a Mario Lopez no Quardo. Today, Missus Lopez had
to hop a flight to the East Coast because our
son is shooting another movie.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Did you guys pass in the air? We it's funny.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
We got picked up this past Thursday morning at the
same time two cars. Yeah, at five am. Our flights
were leaving at the same time, but we had different airlines.
I'm like, I'm getting picked up in my car.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
It's ridiculous. It's so wild. Well, because he had to go.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
To another airline, maybe they were saying, I we just
didn't think about it.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Yeah, Yeah, And he's in New York shooting The Revenge
of la Oh, which is in the Conjuring Universe, the
sequel to the film The Curse of Lina, which is
an old Mexican folklore about this woman who drowned her
kids because her husband was cheating on her.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
She wanted to get back at them, and then she
kid's fault exactly, but she wanted to hurt him that way,
and so she was sort of sentence. Then she drowned
herself and sentenced purgatory down there haunted net she haunts people,
and yeah, now she haunts people. So it's pretty spooky.
And the first one was pretty good. But I'm proud
of my boy. He's gonna be in that film ironically
with a friend of mine, Jay hernandez Oh. Look at
(01:29):
that they're both in the same film together. And then
he rolls right into another film called Mission Merry Christmas.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
All right, so very proud of following in the family
business of Christmas films.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Dominic killing it out.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
There, Nice Flora, Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Mario Lopez here, keeping the music coming your way. As
Fraser tells us about a few new things hitting TV
and streaming.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Netflix begins streaming Splinter Cell death Watch, a series where
I retired Sam Fisher is pulled back into the espionage
world to help a new recruits unravel a global conspiracy
involving a green tech company and the children of a
former adversary.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Blah blah blah ooh, espionage and global conspiracies sounds like
being pulled back in is always pull in.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Of course, AMC and Shutter have the series premiere of
Guts and Glory, an unscripted horror competition series where contestants
face terrifying immersive challenges that tests their fear, skill and intellect.
So fear factor basically fear factor, I think, yeah, but
maybe a little spookier instead of gross. And CBS kicking
off new seasons of in CIS, n CIS Origins, and
(02:30):
NCIS Sydney, while Bravo has the series premiere of Wife
Swap The Real Housewives addition, So when.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
You get a franchise that works, boy, they go in there.
For example, NBC has Chicago PD, Yes, Chicago MED, Chicago Fire,
Chicago Fire, and I believe there's another one, but Chicago's
on lock.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
The Chicago's like all of their emergency services have their
own drama series.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
And CSI at one point was the same thing. Wellsie Si,
then CSI Vegas, there was CSI faiw Orleans.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
There have been franchises of C Side that have shut
down at this point, and they're probably gonna open one
on Mars soon.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And now n cis n cis well obviously Sydney's in Australia,
but n cis origins. H that's interesting.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
I don't understand that one.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
But it's okay on Mario Lopez. As I mentioned earlier
at Kordo is out, so Fraser's gonna step in with
a life hacker too, all right, any.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Hands, these are ways and tips to prevent yourself from
becoming the subject of a dateline episode.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
I got to pay attention to that, back with it
in ten first more music. You're on Mario Lopez, not
for a fresh life hacker too, since Cordo's out, Fraser's
got some for us.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
What you got are these are tips to prevent yourself
from ending up on a dateline episode as the victim.
Okay one. Don't be the life of the party ever.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Right Keith Morrison always says she was the life of
the party.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Just fade into the background. Don't want to be the
life of the party.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It's true.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Never go to a second location. Only go to one
location and back to your house.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Yes, it's always that second location.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
Someone's like, oh, hop in my car, we'll just go here. Nope,
it's not gonna end. Well, aparently you don't need to
sleep because bad things happen when you sleep.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Ooh, that's gonna be tough.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Don't go on cruises. You do not.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
But aside from all the drama that's happening on cruises,
it's just, oh my gosh, just the poop cruise alone
wasn't enough to discourage you.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
I still haven't watched that full documentary. Don't visit foreign land.
In fact, don't travel at all.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Well, I know we're gonna be talking to Tony Danza
coming up, but when we were talking off air, he
was telling me about when he was traveling back in
the day. Did you know you didn't need an ID
when you bought a plane ticket. You could just go
with the ticket. He goes, back in the day that
was ID. We're talking the eighties. Yeah, you didn't have
If you just had a ticket, you didn't need if,
(04:40):
he goes, I just went back then you didn't need Ancho,
you didn't need an id and he goes, No, you
just all you had was the paper ticket.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
You just handed them ticket and went in the ticket.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
That was it. And you didn't need an idea.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You didn't have to prove you're the right person. Nope,
in that wild that's insane. Like I kind of remember that.
I have trouble remembering back to like before nine to eleven,
Like I remember, you could go, you could like go
to the gate and quick for them to.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Like you could do all I have to wait for
girls at the gate at the gate, I remember that.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
More Mario Lopez coming.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Up, getting back to Tony Danzy was hanging out on
Zoom with us. Mario Lopez here and Tony. You got
a bunch of stuff going on. But first off, you're
in this new movie Reelection. It's a comedy. H looks
pretty funny. What's the premise here?
Speaker 5 (07:09):
It's about a guy, you know, It's like I think
it's relatable. It's about a guy who feels like there
was a moment in his life that didn't go his
way and it changed his whole life. And he's sort
of he's been I play his father, and he's been
sitting around Adam Sawnd this terrific kid, he wrote, directed
and starting a picture. So but he he's he's sitting
(07:32):
around doing nothing. He decides he wants to go back
to high school. And it was the incident was he lost.
He was the student body president freshman, sophomore, junior year,
senior year.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
He gets licked and the.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Guy ends up with his girlfriend and then goes on
to be the governor of the state.
Speaker 6 (07:49):
So his whole life was that was the guy took
his life. And so finally he decided to go back.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
But you know, going back to high school when you're
forty six or whatever he is, know, things have changed. Yeah, yeah,
it's and it's it's a lot of fun. And I
think it's you know, I think you know. One of
the things I worry about a lot is is, you know,
young young generation struggling, uh, you know, to get out
of college. They did everything everybody said they were supposed
(08:17):
to do. They took on a lot of debt and
a lot of cases too, and then they can't find
a job. They can't find they don't they can't live
up to their own expectations. And it's so different from
when even you grow up. I mean, I'm much older
than you, Marrio, but even when you grow up, it
was so much it's so much different than it is now.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
No, you're exactly right. Is that one of the things
that sort of drew you to this role, Tony, the
fact that it was sort of a father son relationship,
and yeah, well I explore that.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
The fathers and relationship really stuck, stuck struck me. And
it also, yeah, this, you know, this is this is
one of those little independent movies that had something to
say too, you know.
Speaker 6 (08:53):
So it's kind of cool.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
It's really I'm I'm pleased with it. I'm really pleased
with it. So I hope people are like it.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
I love it, I love it.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Look forward to checking that out, Tony hank Tight. We're
gonna have more coming out. The first one music al

taken it and charted it for a symphony orchestra.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
In other words, going to do the act.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
But instead of having four pieces, you know, my drums, guitar, bass,
in piano, I'm gonna have like sixty nine pieces.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Wow. My band's going to be there too. Of my
band's in there.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Yeah, but I'm playing with a symphony which is at
the Tillis Center on Long Island and Old Brookville in Brookville,
I mean not Old Brookville, Brookville.
Speaker 6 (09:55):
So it's kind of cool. I'm excited.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
You know, it's it's my stopping ground, so I'm going
to see a lot of people, I think.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
So that is I got to get to sing with
a symphony, or that.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Is not your first time getting to do that. I
was just gonna ask twice.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
Before, Mario, I've done it twice before. But it's you know,
it's it's my buggle.
Speaker 2 (10:14):

That actually is really brilliant. Yes, I mean, I don't
think anyone's going to check for the membership card, but
you're right about all the other things about Costco.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
If the zombies attack, if there's any sort of apocalypse,

Here in the meantime, Frasers gonna make us think with
a random thought, what do you got.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
When you think about the muffin man? Do you picture
the muffin man as a man who sells muffins or
a muffin with a face.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
The man who sells muffins.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
See, I always pictured it as a muffin with a face.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
No, When they say do you know the muffin man,
the muffin man, I was thinking, like the milkman. You know,
you know the Ian Yeah, because like the milkman.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Well, when you were younger, there was a milkman.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
The milkman and the muffin man should roll together because
muffins would. Milk is a good one too, punch and
we no longer have milkmen or muffin men. No, you
should bring them back, am Mario Lopez. Returning to the
daytime Emmy stage this weekend to host it. It's been
(17:14):
a while. I've hosted it once before.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Maybe twice, I think twice. Yeah, yes, that's right.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
But this time I'm doing it solo. I'm very excited
and nominated for a few Daytime Emmy Awards for my
show Access Daily and as a host for Access Hollywood.
So cross your fingers and prayers up. Hopefully we'll take
home a statuette. It's going down Friday at the Pasadena
Civic Auditorium right here in LA and wish your boy luck.
(17:42):
Onmrio dot com for all the info and how to
check it out.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
More. Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Well, if you're sick of those annoying spam calls, some
good news apples. iOS twenty six has a new call
feature to screen them out. Mario Lopez here. It uses
Siri to ask unknown callers why they're calling before your
phone rings respond. This is our transcribe, and you can
choose to answer, ask more questions, or reject the call.
Go into settings and turn on screen unknown callers. Previously
(18:08):
iPhone users needed third party apps to do this, but
now it is built in.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
For some reason, spam callers love my phone.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Oh, mind too.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
It's relentless all day and I block them and somehow
they still come on.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
They just get to use different numbers.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
They just use different numbers. It is the band of
my existence. Mario Lopez here at getting close to the
end of our radio fund. Just one last thing to
get to, plus probably enough time to play a request
or two before I get out of here at all
on Mario on X all Mario Lopezz. Time to head
home for the night, but not before we get to
one last thing. We lost another legend this week. Diane
(18:45):
Keaton passed away at the age of seventy nine. And
this has been a really tough year for celebs that
we we love passing and wow, this one seemed to
come out of nowhere. Only about a year and a
half ago I interviewed her for her last project, and
I believe it was the last time she did an
interview promoting a project, and she was the sweet as always.
(19:08):
She looked great and it hasn't been disclosed on why
she passed. She was maybe battling something that we were
not aware of. I don't know, but she was always
very very nice and gracious with her time and will
be known of course, for her brilliant work in the
Godfather movies Annie Hall, for which she won an Oscar
(19:29):
Father of the Bride, First Wives Club, so many great films,
her films with Woody Allen. She leaves behind quite the
body of work, and she also leaves behind two kids
that she adopted in her fifties, So God bless her
and her family during this time.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Poor Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
