Please stop trying to look up Chelsea's home.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Right, it's twenty twenty five, and that's Alison.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You could see that even the sweetest thing, even the
nicest thing, could come across creepy yea.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
But yeah, we're gonna be out there.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Our nurses from Children's Hospital Michigan will be out there
with us. As always, Alan Longstreet will be out there.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
We'll talk and check with him. In a little while,
we'll be broadcasting live with him, and then just meeting you.
Here's the deal.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Kids that are on the school lunch program throughout the
year often get breakfast and lunch at school for free.
Well back in the day when I was a kid,
if if you're on the school lunch program, you got lunch.
But now they do breakfast in lunch. So usually in
the morning you can go right into the cafeteria and
get a bagel or something like that.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Oh that's great.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
I remember seeing people eat like breakfast in my high school,
but I didn't really think there was like a breakfast thing. Yeah,
I would see people getting a cart and of milk
in an apple, but I guess there was breakfast too.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
But yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
So what happens is for a lot of kids in
Southeast Michigan when the school year ends, depending on what
the situation is at home, sometimes those kids don't have
access to food. So the nurses will tell you the
cereal is great because you don't eat it with milk.
You don't need I mean, it's nice with milk, but
you don't have this ary have to fridge. Handful of
cereal is better than nothing.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
One of our promo girls that was with us in Southgate,
who I had not met yet, so I can't remember
her name.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I feel terrible about that, but she's new. I think
she asked Chelsea and I She's like, I don't want
to sound stupid. She's like, but she wanted she didn't
and that's fine.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
She didn't understand the purpose of it, so we explained
it to oh yeah yeah, and she was like, oh wow,
I mean it is like it's hard to imagine that
school would end and kids would struggle to eat.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Well, yeah, because when that's not your everyday life and
a worry of yours, like how am I gonna I'm
gonna be really hungry all summer? Like you just don't
think about it very much. But I mean, this is
fifteen years. I think we got to go all out. Yeah,
so listen, here's the deal.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
If you don't have time to like at this point,
go out and get tons of boxes of cereal, that's okay.
If tomorrow is that one day that if you if
you stop buy on your way to work or make
your way out to Royal Oak, the Serial Drive goes
on from six till noon. We are there from six
until ten live. So you come by. If you can't
bring cereal, just give it. Give us a little bit
of money because we can take the money and go
(02:59):
get cereal and we get a really good price on
the cereal too, so that helps.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
Not only that, but our nurses are so good at
finding the cereals that there's the most the most servings
for what you're buying.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Yeah, so they're really really good at that.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
So anyway, we'll be out there tomorrow. That'll be fun. Hey,
I want to give a shout out quickly. They asked
me to collab with them on Instagram and it's such
a sweet video.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
It's amazing. I can't believe they did that.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Blown away, but this is the Mount Clemens Montessori Academy
and what they did was they collected a bunch of cereal.
And I don't want to get in trouble with this song,
but anyway, there's all kids in this hallway and they
do it, you know, like when you knock dominos down
of cereal boxes that I'm I'm blown away because all
(03:47):
the way down the hallway but all the kids are
cheering on the cereal. You see the whole school, Thank.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
You so much.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
That's going to help out so many families and kids
and getting the whole school involved like.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
That is that's so, I said.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
It makes you like a cereal, a cereal champion, a
cereal warrior.
Speaker 1 (04:05):

Speaker 3 (04:06):
