Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Detroit's Christmas Station one hundred point three to you, and
I see it is Allison and Chelsea today. Look at
you finding buttons where music beds are. I can't believe
it right off the bat. I really shouldn't be allowed
to have this much power. There's a lot of I
don't honestly though. If we traded seats, this would not

(00:21):
have started off this wee, well, what.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Does this do?

Speaker 1 (00:24):
What does this button do? Jay's out today, poor, Oh
my god, He's so sick. He was not feeling his
best yesterday, but he did okay in the morning and
then it just really I think went downhill after that.
So I think it's just a testament to his constitution
because he shouldn't have been here yesterday, right, And Chelsea

(00:45):
and I are very selfish because we're only worried about
ourselves now. And did you and kick us? Listen though,
it's really close to Christmas and I have some fun
thing I have friends missed this weekend and I can't go.
I'm gonna be ticked. Yeah, there seems to be flu
thing going around and he's going to the doctor today
and we'll find out. Yeah, So I think I think

(01:05):
he's on top of maybe being a little sick, he's
completely burnout. It's the end of the year and he's
been going crazy. Yeah, if he needs a break. You
would might not have noticed if you weren't up close
to him like we were yesterday. But he literally looked
like he had raved for twenty four hours before yesterday.
I was like, wow, you have some bloodshot eye. Yeah,
your eyes are quite red. We'll talk about the car

(01:26):
giveaway from yesterday as well as you know, back in
the day Allison's Bubble Hollywood Minute. We got a lot
going on. We could do a crazy lines or I
could fit it in with the car forgot. We have
crazy lines today? All right, Jake Towers in the morning
on demand, here's the Hollywood Minute with Chelsea. Next month,
Survivor going to be launching a nationwide contest where they're

(01:49):
hiding immunity idols in each of the fifty states and
challenging you to find them with clues. To guys, you,
I don't know what that means. What it means is
the Survivor is going to add a little bit of
amazing race. Oh there God, immunity idols. If you get
voted out Survivor and I still I was thinking about
this not that long ago. Survivor was one of my

(02:10):
favorite top five all time shows, and then I just
kind of fell off when I just couldn't do reality anymore.
And it makes me sad to this day because I
love Survivor. I used to talk to Jeff Ropes all
the time. I used to angry tweet. But what happens
is someone gets voted out every week, okay, and usually
for terrible reasons. They'll vote out the best, most important

(02:32):
person because they want to win the money. An immunity
idol will save you and you pull it out and
you go bam, can't got it. Director James Cameron saved
a rat's life while filming a controversial scene in The Abyss.
He performed CPR on it and then kept it as
a pet named Beanie. Oh now I'm oh, no, I'm

(02:52):
friends with James Camera. I know you can't not be
You're gonna have to get past the five wives. I
think it's eight. And finally, Romey and Jake Reiner, two
of Robin Michelle Reiner's children, obviously, have released a joint
statement about their parents. They said, words cannot even begin
to describe the unimaginable pain. We are experiencing every moment

(03:15):
of the day. The horrific and devastating loss of our
parents is something that no one should ever experience. They
weren't just our parents, they were our best friends. Now
he has another daughter too. Yes it's not his, but
he adopted her when he was married to Penny Marshall. Okay, Tracy, maybe, okay,
we're hearing that they died from multiple sharp force injuries.

(03:37):
According to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner, Nick appeared
in court on Wednesday, so yesterday, and spoke only once,
when the judge asked him to confirm he was waiving
his right to a speedy arraignment, and he replied, yes,
your honor. The story just gets sadder and sadder, crazier
and crazier. Well that too, Romy did not realize that

(03:58):
her mom was dead, like I think she maybe saw
her dad and thought the mom was going to be somewhere,
not thinking that she was also gone. And also, it's terrible,
it is and it sounds like it happened right after
Conan's Christmas party. The fight started there, they went over.
Nick was staying in their guest house. It's just because

(04:20):
The moral of this story is these were two parents
that did not give up on him yep. In his
most volatile, dysfunctional state. They still housed him yep, and
were trying to help him and even tried to take
him to a Christmas party. It's so sad TV. Today
we have the great Christmas light Fight.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Grandma.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Thanks, Happy Thursday. We are going to be doing crazy
lines without Jay today. Yeah. And oh, I don't know
if I asked her her name yesterday, but one of
the people at the car giveaway came up to me,
one of the ladies, and she was so sweet and
she said, I just have to tell you you are
not crazy. And I was like, well, that's a loaded feeling.

(05:13):
You don't. You should spend more time with me, right,
But she said, when I do my crazy line, she
goes every one of them, do I do that too?
And I was like, well, I think we need to
question her. I was gonna say, maybe her and I
go in on a groupon for some sort of avery,
go what's your crazy line today? Actually it is about
the car giveaway, okay. And here's why I think it's

(05:34):
a little crazy. I didn't. I don't think I had
a feeling that everyone else didn't have. But it's how
intense I feel it. So obviously, how many people do
you think we're there? I think it was like one
hundred and twenty maybe, Okay, so that means one hundred
and nineteen people aren't gonna win cars, right, So we
kind of we pulled people in tens and they opened
boxes to see if they had the key. The first

(05:57):
one we did, we let each person go individually, and
we realize I was going to be time consuming. So
the next group of ten, all ten open their boxes
at the same time. Right, That's how we continue to
do it. But obviously only one person's gonna win the car,
and it came down to the wires. Huh. I honestly
have such guilt for the one hundred and nineteen people

(06:17):
I know, but like intense, like I can't watch. I
hate it so much. Hi, And it's what we're all
there for. Everyone knows. It's like when you buy a
lottery ticket, where are the odds? You feel bad though,
but it really like I literally want to walk away
for that part, like I don't want to be there.
We also are hearing from the listeners why they need

(06:39):
the money or need the car. And so when you
see that person then come up and not get it,
you just feel like you've taken all their hope away.
And then my brain starts swirling, like is there a
way to give everyone a car? No, that would be nice,
and that wouldn't be a contest. That's true, Okay, all right,
So for me, I don't think that mine is that crazy.

(07:00):
But I am not listening to anything in the car
unless it's holiday music right now, and I probably won't
again until the new Year. I think that's not crazy.
I think that's what the But I won't even take
a break, like you know how sometimes like oh, I
just I don't like this Christmas song. So I'm just gonna,

(07:21):
you know, flip the station and whatever. I'll come back
to it. I will sit through the song that I hate. Well,
there's only one Christmas station to listen to, So what
would you flip to? You are a playlist, oh right
or something? I don't know, a playlist of Christmas music
probably okay, Yeah, I don't know. No, I do think
that's normal. I think it's why we flip to Christmas

(07:41):
and we have a captive audience. You can't go anywhere
now because you can't stop listening. But yeah, I mean,
I don't know. I guess it's not that crazy, but well,
but I'm running out of things. No, it's not that.
It's it's something that you think about because it's outside
of your comfort zone. You normally flip around. It's like today,
I feel like doing this, but just doesn't feel right

(08:01):
now to holiday music. I mean, you wanted Christmas in July.
When we start in July, you're like, I can't wait.
I can't wait, So you should be sopping it up,
all right, So that's what makes us crazy? What makes
you crazy? You can always let us snow three one
three six three one one hundred point three. It is
going to be really warm today. Yeah, all of that
snow I think going to be melting. Here's an additional

(08:24):
crazy lines actually, since you brought that up. Yeah, I
can't enjoy today knowing the terror that's coming after midnight.
And obviously I'm exaggerating because that's what I do, but
I don't like to hear about And then it will
freeze and it will be icy and drizzly and freezing rain,
and driving in ice is way scarier than driving in

(08:44):
like bad snow. I think, Yeah, I mean it probably
won't be as bad as I always forget to be.
That's why I'm not allowed to officially do weather. That's
why the Allison Eld's Weather app hasn't taken off. No
one wants it. You're not gonna make it. Yesterday was
our our car giveaway that we have been gearing up

(09:05):
for for two months. Sent to sleave Yeah at Genesis
Chevrolet in East Point, and huge congratulations to Becky from Riverview.
You guys, I have to tell you this because you
weren't there. Becky won. We were down to as there
were one hundred and twenty people there. We were down
to one hundred people had gone opened their boxes. Ye

(09:28):
did not win. She was in the second to last,
was in the second. If this group didn't win, it
was going to go down to the final time. Yeah,
how the universe plans that, I don't know. She wins
it and she she shook her body, she dropped to
the ground. I literally wrapped my arms around her, huh,
not to hug her, like I'm so happy for you.

(09:50):
I held her. She was probably like you should probably
get off me now, but I was like, oh no,
I'm not going to I was literally trying to stop. Yeah, tremors.
I was like I was trying to stop or like
a you know, like when you put a blanket. Oh,
what's that T shirt you put on your the thunder
shirt for your dog. Oh? Right, I was doing the blanket. Yeah,
I was doing that. She was so, I mean she

(10:11):
drove a twenty fifteen Town and Country van that she
was at the point was either going to need to
like replace the engine or something super expensive because it
just kept leaking oil, or she was going to have
to get a new car. And I don't think that
was I don't think either were really an option at
that point. So to be able to win that car,
and I know she drove it off a lot yesterday

(10:32):
she said, she did, how quickly can I get this car?
And they said, well, if you've got everything in place,
like we we can get you in it today. I
love it when dealerships say we can get you in
it today. What about how'd she get there? I mean,
I think she drove her van. Oh and another part
she just came back with someone to get it later.

(10:53):
I think she might have turned it in. They might
have given her a little bit of money for it. Oh,
I'm not really sure. Yeah that's what I was hearing
when I bought my car. Yeah, they took the Flex.
I tried to talk them out of it. I was like,
you don't want You have such bad negotiation skills. And
that's coming from someone who's a bad negotiator. But why
would anyone ever want don't don't question it, don't care

(11:13):
they want to give you money for it? Bad for them.
I was like, did you see the Flex? Did you
see you? I feel bad for the Flex. I missed
that car. I do too. And there's a lady driving
around in Nipseilani right now and I'm gonna I'm at
stop lights next to her. I see her. She is
driving my Flex, bright red with the white top, and
it looks like it just got driven off a showroom

(11:34):
more and I'm like, I honestly have such now remorse
and jealousy, I know. And I was like, get out
in my car, lady. Yeah, my car never looked like
that though, even when we bought it. But I was like,
where did you come from? She's like taunting you with this.
I know, what are the odds somebody has my Flex?

(11:55):
But and they don't make it. Yeah crazy, so well,
congratulations to Becky and for everybody that came out, and
we honestly wish everyone could walk away a winner. We
hope most people tell us that they still had fun
and some people won Mannheim Steamroller tickets. Yes, a runner up, Pride.
It's an event. You get donuts, you get coffee, you
get to pictures with us, watch us one is that? Yeah?

(12:19):
So another very successful year. Thank you to Genesis Chevrolet
in East Point, and thank you. We're looking forward to
hopefully doing it again next year. Yeah, twenty twenty six,
we're all going to be winners. Ah, let's keep our
fingers crossed. Detroit's Christmas Station one hundred point three W
and I C. It is time for feeling Good in

(12:40):
the D. Feeling Good in the D is brought to
you by David Femininio. He'll do your law good. He
doesn't want you. I'm sorry, it's David Feminin Get David
get paid. This is such a cute story. There is
a reindeer in England that is going viral because he
thinks he's a dog. His name is Lars. He's seven

(13:02):
months old and his mom wasn't producing enough milk. So
the owners of the farm that he's on had to
bring him inside and too bottle feed him and whatnot.
And he spent a lot of time around their three
dogs and now thinks that he's one of them. Well,
and now he is one of them. Yes, so they
have to part of the path. Yeah, they have to
keep him as a dog.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
Now.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
I love that, yeah so much. We used to dog
sit for Mark and Sandy before Layla. They had Chloe,
and Chloe would come stay with us for two weeks
as they traveled the country, and they when they came
to get Chloe two weeks later. We had successfully turned
Chloe into a cat. She ate cat food, she laid
on the bed. She didn't do anything like what the
heck happened to our dog? Why do you do? The

(13:41):
star dog? So funny and so cute. Yeah, but that's
so sweet. And I hope that he gets to live
in the house with the dogs, sleep in the bed
do All of that is the Alison and Chelsea experience today.
See Chelsea already, I already messed up. I'm so sorry.
Oh man, Chelsea and Alison experience be bumpy today. Thankfully,

What's wrong with you over there? You hit the wrong knob. Yeah,
I turned on my old microphone. She does not a
big chair, very it's a big it's big, and you
can get lost in that thing. It's like way to
chuck in a little ridiculous. She don't even touch the ground.
They're dangling like a little kid out of the church pew.
That's right. We could have had Derek come in. That's
where he sits, right you thing? Oh he loves it?

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Little weather whiplash just for you, Alison, Love you dearly,
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Back in the Day. Back in the Day is brought
to you by bright Side Dental. Sixty four years ago.
In nineteen sixty one, The Lion Sleeps Tonight by The
Tokens hit number one. Oh yeah, that's that was a
song that people like. I like that song. Yeah, it's
not bad cute. Fifty nine years ago, in nineteen sixty six,
Doctor Seuss Is how the Grinch Stool Christmas aired for

(15:53):
the first time on CBS. Oh, I didn't realize it
was that old. I didn't either. That makes sense though, Yeah,
you've seen that right original? Yeah, yeah, I mean because
that's what you watch, right. I mean, there's a handful
of Christmas specials we grew up watching back when there
were only three channels. Children. What about what about the
Jim Carrey one? Have you seen that? I've seen that.

(16:14):
I like it too. It's funny, it is, yeah, very
very cute. Forty three years ago, in nineteen eighty two,
Hall of Oates hit the number one spot on the
singles chart for the fifth time with Man Eater. Yeah,
that's a sort of subject because you don't like that song. No, no, no,
just talking about hall of Oates. It's just also sad.
I just hate each other now, two people that can

(16:36):
put out, I know, great music. I will never understand
that fifty years they met in college, they've been together
ever since until like really hate each other I know
at this point. Yeah. Man Eater, by the way, is based.
It's not necessarily about a woman. It's about the city
of New York. Oh. I did a Google search one
day when I needed a fun fact on the Allison experience.

(17:01):
What's man Eater about I love your Alison experience. I
really do well. Catch it Saturday from two to six.
Oh my god. Sixteen years ago, in two thousand and nine,
the first Avatar movie was released. I believe, isn't it
this weekend? The new one's going to be coming out.
I don't know which one seven eight, fourteen, twenty seven,
number third. You know I told you iss this in

(17:22):
Disney World when we were there, Like, I don't hate Avatar.
It's just a lot of work and I don't like
giving I don't like getting a job. Right. But Warren
was actually at a friend's house one day and they
had Avatar on, and so he wound up watching about
forty five minutes of it, and he came back and
he told me, he goes, actually, Avatar is not for you.
And what he meant by that was he goes, you're

(17:42):
not gonna enjoy it because of all of the You're
just gonna feel sadness, like more sad like really because
he knows me, and he's like, I don't know our
animals or people or someone's being exting what are they?
I don't know, But he just advised me. He's like,
I gotta don't think you need to do it. I
will good. I mean, it's like a mean four hour

(18:03):
movie that you're gonna you will skip. I'm not gonna.
I never saw the March March of the Penguins. I mean,
I'm just I don't go there. I don't go looking
for trouble. And let's see three years ago in two
thousand or twenty twenty two, the Yellowstone prequel nineteen twenty
three premiered, starring Harrison Ford and Helen Nearn. I do
wish that you could handle Yellowstone because it is really good,

(18:28):
and I think that it would be right up your alley.
I was thinking about it just the other day. I
am so lost right now, I've got nothing but here'
and I love that man. Who's that's Tyler Sheridan Taylor Sheridan. Yeah, yeah,
I'm sorry, And I think that it's kind of on
par with that. Okay, but the first like five minutes
of Yellowstone is something to do with a horse, and

(18:49):
I know that you're not gonna like it and you're
gonna be deterred for the rest of the Why do
they have to do that? Yeah? Right, So I don't know,
but something to think about. Okay, Now, let's do the
Hollywood Minute. Hollywood Minute is brought to you by a
holiday instance from the Michigan Lottery. The Rosemont Police Department
in Illinois have closed Tara Reid's alleged drugging case due

(19:12):
to lack of evidence and the absence of hospital chemical testing. Now,
Tara maintains that she only had one drink believes she
was drugged despite no official report, authority say the case
could be reopened if new evidence is brought forward. If
that is true and she was drugged, I do feel
bad for her one hundred percent. But what I want
to know is, and I don't know who dropped the ball,

(19:32):
but here comes my sbu knowledge. Where was the talk screen? Honestly?
I mean why was it not performed? She took herself
to Did she take herself to the hospital feeling like
she'd been drugged? Isn't the best I know that she
went to the hospital. I think that something happened and
she just woke up and was in the hospital. Yeah,
because you can't go back and get that evidence. Selena

(19:53):
Gomez addressed ban questions about her changing voice during an
Instagram live, and she explained that hell fissues can cause
her throat to swell. She said, I get weird. My
throat kind of swells inside. Sometimes that's all she does talk.
You can kind of tech different than she used to. Yeah,
there was an episode in Only Murders where her voice
sounded because I noticed it. Not a huge difference, but

(20:17):
I did notice that her voice sounded a little different.
I was wondering a little less monotony. No, she's always
going to be that. She can't not do that. I
just don't get it, though, because she wasn't always like that,
and like I love Selena Gomes. Sure, but her voice
in her monotonous yeah in front of button is a
good thing. Yes. Yeah. Rihanna was reportedly called out by

(20:38):
a fellow concert goer while attending Mariah Carey's recent Las
Vegas show. She was there over the weekend the same
week and Jay was there, and she was seen, you know,
dancing away at Mariah's show like she should, and someone
yelled for her to sit down, saying that she was
blocking their view. I think they had like a little

(21:00):
exchange and then, uh so they knew who they were
talking to. I don't know, I don't know if I mean,
if Rihanna was in front of them, and you just
see some person that's kind of like blocking your view.
Maybe you just you don't care. It's a really tough
battle like who's right, who's wrong? And now because as
someone who just wants to sit now, I really don't

(21:20):
want you standing and dancing in front of me. But
I also think you have the right to do that,
So it's tough. And finally, Justin Bieber surprised fans by
covering Eminem's verse from Forget About Dre during a live
stream on Twitch. The clip obviously went viral. Fans have
mixed reviews about it. I did listen to it, though,
and he sounds great, does he? Yes? He can wrap.

(21:42):
Did I tell you that I'm gonna get a Twitch
account and you're you're gonna watch me play? To Jamin Earl? Yeah,
and what is that? It's a It's a dumb game
that I'm awesome at. And that's why it would be
funny because no one's playing. I mean, good, good with
you have to whip out your sega to no Actually
I think that's on the PS two Yeah TV. Today

(22:06):
we have the Great Christmas Light Fight. What it is
going to be coming up? In Allison's bubble. Well, I'm
going over it now. I think we're going to talk
about the way we talk around the country, our slang terms.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
All right, I am bubble.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
So when I first saw this bubble, I actually all
the bubbles I was looking at this morning were kind
of not really that exciting. But the more I thought
about this, because I put myself in the in the
test group, and I came out as having a definite
way that I say this. So the bubble is this,
people in the Midwest are far more likely to say
um than A. People on the East coast and in

(23:02):
the South are far more likely to say uh than UM,
and people on the West coast are split even late.
But so the only it sounds boring, But the reason
that I wound up doing it was because I thought
about what I do in that and I'd absolutely say OM.
And I don't know that I ever say uh. I mean,
I know that I say AM a lot. Yeah, me too,
And like I'm sure I say all these stupid words,

(23:24):
but yeah, but I know that I say I do.
I mean, I have a preference. And it's I wonder
why I know what the difference is between where you live. Yeah,
I wonder why too. I'm not sure, but they did
a study and they pulled the south side I know,
So there you go. Congratulations to Becky from Riverview who

(23:45):
won the twenty twenty six Chevy Tracks yesterday at Genesis
Chevrolet in East Point. That was a very, very exciting day,
one of the biggest things that we look forward to
every single year. Yeah, it's a huge thing to be
a part of somebody. I mean, and I know that
would be huge for me. You know, it would be
huge for you. Life changed to having a brand new
car dropped on you or twenty thousand dollars in cash.

(24:07):
And it's a nice thing to be a part of
Today's National Regifting Day. I didn't know that this was
a holiday. Well, I'm I'm concerned about why it's today
and not after Christmas when we get gifts. I don't know.
I guess people are already giving gifts to each other.
But it's weird, No, I mean, I'm not I'm assuming

(24:29):
other people. Maybe did we did get Sandy sent some
gifts home. Oh well that's nice. Yeah, so we got
we did get some gifts already. But I will say,
hopefully we'll be able to have our gift exchange tomorrow.
But if not, you know, we'll do it at some point,
whether it's next week or when we get back from break.
But I did go to five Below yesterday, did you, Yes?

(24:50):
And isn't that store great? It is? I was surprised
at I mean, it's for kids. Yeah, at the end
of the day, I mean, so that's they have a
lot of like great toys and you know, little things
like that. But something that I got you made me
laugh so hard. I've never seen anything like it, really,

(25:10):
And I was like, this is perfect and you're not
going to use it, but that doesn't matter. No, it
doesn't matter. So it's going to be great. Okay, that's awesome.
But a poll found that sixty one percent of Americans
think that regifting something you don't want is acceptable. Now
what's the percentage? Sixty one? Yeah, I've never understood why

(25:30):
anybody would if somebody gives me something. You wanted me
to have a gift, right, right, So that was the idea.
You wanted me to have a gift. And if I
find it's not something I can use or would use,
and I in turn give it to someone else, you
still gave me a gift. The gift of not having
to get them something, so everybody won. That's like, I

(25:50):
think that the biggest thing that I would regift are
either soaps that I didn't like the scent or candles
that I do not like the scent, because what's the
point of holding onto that and you don't want to
throw it out? No, because those are good gifts. I'd
enjoy both of those and expensive. But I don't know.
So a lot of people are going to be regifting.
And I had one other thing. Oh, today is the

(26:11):
last day to ship gifts without paying a lot more
so if you need to, if you need to mail
something the post Office, the cutoff for normal priority mail
is today, ups might it might be too late for
normal ground shipping. The cutoff for three day is the nineteenth,
For second day air is the twenty second, and then

(26:35):
FedEx again probably kind of too late. Well you're gonna
get yeah, I mean you want to get that done
now because when they're now in the in the home
stretch and you last minuted it. Yeah. Of course that's
going to cost everyone, so some people don't care. Like me,
I'll be like, how much do I have to pay
on Christmas Eve to get this there in the morning,

(26:55):
four hundred and fifty dollars do it? You know, I'm
so disappointed. So one of the gifts that I bought,
I had originally bought on Amazon and then realized that
like the finish of whatever it was was not the
correct color. Okay, So then I went I decided, I'm
going to just go directly to the website that the

(27:16):
company that sells this. I thought you were going to say,
I'm going to go directly to the warehouse.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Well, yes, let me get my car go to the warehouse. No,
But so I decided that, like, instead of going the
Amazon route, I'm just going to go directly to the
original website and get it sent that way. Okay, wrong move,
because it has been lost. They need it to be
lost for eight days before officially declaring it lost. And

(27:45):
I'm supposed to be giving this gift away at my
friends miss on Saturday, and that's not happening.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
And so now it's not going to happen. And it's like,
if I would have gone with Amazon, I would have
just gotten it in three days. And why did you
think it was better than not? You thought it would
be quicker. I don't not quicker. Sometimes I just liked
the actual company and Amazon. I feel like I'm winning sometimes,
like I'm supporting small business at it. You know, you

(28:12):
the whole transaction went that way. I thought you meant
just to return it. Oh, I mean you went there
to buy. I get, Oh that's a nice thought. I
get why you did that. But it's just like, yeah,
that's why Amazon wins because they figured how to do it. Yep. Yeah,
so uh, get your packages out today? Is Chelsea and
Alison this morning? Hoping that Jay's going to be feeling better.

(28:35):
I just texted him, Oh good. I just texted him
because I just want to He is a doctor's appointment today,
but you know he doesn't want to miss things. He
will he shouldn't. He probably should have been off yesterday
he was really under the weather. But he'll want to
power through because it's our gift exchange. So I just
wanted him to know before he even goes to the doctor.
We don't have to do our gift It's the only

(28:56):
thing on the docket for tomorrow is our gift exchange.
We don't have to do it, or we could do
it monday, but it's like whatever, if doctor, if your
doctor tells you to rest or Well, not only that,
but let us know sooner than later, because I am
going to the dollar store later today if we need
our gifts. I didn't by tomorrow. I wanted to sound
just all altruistic and not that I had an ulterior

(29:18):
motive high but's same. Yeah, I'm also I'm good to
shop or not whatever. I'm also a little concerned that
the budget is way too high. When I went to
five Blow yesterday, I was like, I'm going to need
to get a lot of things. I know to hit
fifty dollars, and that's a five blow. If you go
to the dollar store, it's a dollar I know. So yeah,

(29:39):
I'm getting a little nervous and I don't just want
to get you guys just like crap that we're just
gonna immediately throw away, you know. So it's supposed to
be fun, funny, usable yeah, you know, we had a
lot of challenges. It was not just a gift exchange,
but also kind of a challenge slash game. And then
I also have a funny story to share when Jay's
back about he was going to get something additional that.

(30:05):
When he gets back, I'll tell you how that went. Okay,
and we weren't supposed to go over budget. This technically
wouldn't have been, but it's an interesting story. An anonymous
man paid off about fifty layaway accounts totaling about eight
thousand dollars at a Delaware Burlington store just days before Christmas.
I love story like this. He just walked in, He

(30:27):
walked in, said I want to pay. I've got eight grand,
you know, and he doesn't use that for the layaway
and they just they just went and found accounts. And
what I love about that is someone's going to walk
in and they were stressing about it. I've got to
pay my Burlington and they're gonna be like, yeah, your
balance has been paid. I think it's what magical? How

(30:48):
does the store decide though, whose account gets that money? Right?
I don't. I mean, I would imagine it's just random.
But I feel bad for the people that are still
left on the list, you know. And Iowa Tattoo Shop
donated fifteen thousand dollars in toys for local families. Let's
see to a nonprofit that supports families facing financial hardship.

(31:11):
That's really sweet. That really is these We hear so
many stories of whether it's our Lions players or the
Pistons or whoever that are giving back to their city.
And I don't know, it just makes you feel good. Yeah,
I mean in a world where there's a lot of
terrible you could focus on. And that's the other thing
that's so great about this time of year is that

(31:32):
stuff gets highlighted. Yes, you know, and maybe it happens
all year long. You'd like to think it does. Probably not,
but well yeah, probably not. But people going out of
their way to do for the people that need it.
And finally, let's see, almost half of Americans say that
they are not staying up to ring in the new year.
Forty four percent of us will be in bed before midnight.
Do you stay up for the New Year? Absolutely? I

(31:54):
feel like it's I feel like you have to. I
don't know why. I feel like you absolutely have to.
There's and when I'm a million years old, if I'm
still here, I will still do that. I just think
you have to. Oh my god, I meant to tell you. Okay,
So we are all about manifesting and we want next
year to be our year. So I was at the

(32:16):
dentist the other day and Katerina, my dental hygiena. She's
from Peru, Okay, and in her country, she said, if
you wear yellow underwear on New Year's Eve, that's for
good luck, and if you wear red underwear, it is
to find love. Yeah, and she said that sometimes she'll

(32:37):
wear both, sometimes she just picks one or the other.
Yellow underwear is hard to find, but I think we
got to get some. Oh my god. Okay, no, I
will do it. And I'm all about that wo wo
stuff for sure. Whatever is going to work twenty twenty six, Well,
it can't. I don't want to challenge it ye this year.
But yeah, so we need to find yellow underwear. Did

(32:59):
you ask me I wear both? Did you ask her? Oh? Yeah,
you need to wear both? I do. Did you ask
her if it ever if she felt like it helped?

Speaker 2 (33:06):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (33:06):
Now I didn't, but I mean she's still doing it, okay,
And all right? Well, hey, also, let us know your things.
You're like superstitions, superstitions or things you grew up doing.
Because we are turning this ship around next year, turning
it around, doing every single thing that we can. On

(33:27):
New Year's Eve, We're wearing all the underwear, all of it.
That's incredible. Brought to you by Imagine Movie Theaters. Police
in California say they saw a box set outside with
the sign saying Merry Christmas, Free weed. There were dozens
of jars in it filled with marijuana. Now the big
problem it was very close to a high school. That's

(33:49):
that's where you went wrong, because otherwise, wow, how kind
of you and seems like something so standard for California.
You know, we're helping all the needy, but who's looking
out for the potheads? That guy was a coder in
Sweden launched a site where you can buy drugs for
Chat GPT. Now you can buy an ad code and

(34:12):
it makes it act like it's on various drugs like
weed or ketamine. AI experts say it's just a gimmick,
I would hope. So like spending money on that, Yeah,
like the app where we age ourselves, Like who needed
that either? Oh my god? So just a dumb like
silly thing. There's a Snapchat filter that makes you look
like an old lady and it's startling, Like I feel

(34:33):
like I look kind of like my grandma in it.
I'm not a fan, No, no one wants, no one
asked for that. No, I don't want to see my
face with wrinkles. No, give me the app where I'm
twenty two and had that same body. That's the app.
I want a man in the UK, it broke a
world record by singing or signing I should say Christmas

(34:56):
songs for forty two hours straight. No, it is singing
Oh my God without losing his voice. I just I'm
gonna point this out when Jay is back, okay, because
he would have never done that. No, no, he would have,
and you'd like to point it out, like why won't
you put on your glasses? Okay. In my defense, though,
look at this. The tops is singing and the bottom

(35:18):
says signing. Right, yeah, you're right, okay, all right, all right,
So I'm gonna take that as a win. You've been cleared.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
Today is National Twin Day, So if you know a
twin and give them a call. Twins have a special language.
I feel like, no, they do. I mean I've witnessed it,
I lived with it. Yeah, and they team up against
him up, and there's one that's always a little more
like you know what. I just feel like one has

(35:48):
a more demonstrative, yes, a more challenging personality then the other.
One would be like laid back. Speaking of twins, I
have no show to watch, okay, nothing. I am out
there miserable. I spent forty five minutes just scrolling through
all of my streamers.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
Nothing. So I settled on a show called Blackbird on Apple.
It's six episodes. I heard that's really good. It's really good.
I'm just about to finish it. But it's the serial
killer is a twin, and uh he's he's mental and
ugly and just a messed up and his brother is
not any of those things. And I guess there's this syndrome.

(36:26):
They mention it. I meant to google it to see
if it's real. But there's this syndrome where the one
twin in utero will feed on the other twin and
get all his nutrients. They were saying this in the show,
and so they came out and they're identical twins, and
when you look at them, you're like, and the the
serial killer guy he knows. And also it's like, who

(36:47):
goes and tells their children that because he's aware. He's like,
my brother fed on me in the world God and
got all got all my good stuff. Oh my God,
who told you that? Mom, that's not a conversation you
need to bring. I do know of a story though,
where the twin This is probably not like the right terms,

(37:08):
but basically ate the other one I've heard. Yeah, and
like there's also be a better term. We told you that.
I know you shouldn't know that if you are looking
for a show. Though. Did you ever watch all Her
fault on Peacock? I kept going, I kept scrolling around it.
Do it? Okay, Dakota Fanning, Okay, so good? Their sun
gets kidnapped, not Dakota's but okay, yes, but a sun

(37:31):
gets kidnapped, and the amount of twists and turns. Sometimes
the episode might feel a tiny bit slow, and then
you get to the end and you're like, well, I
have to watch the next one. They are really really
good at that. Yeah, because I'm going to fish Blackbird
as soon as I get home. Taco Bell bringing back
It's case Rito today for a limited time. They cut
it from their menu back in twenty twenty three. That

(37:51):
was one of my favorite things. Cay So rito was great.
I had we had Taco Bell for dinner last night.
Spent twenty seven dollars. Who spends twenty seven dollars of
Taco Bell these two we got everything, honestly, though not
hard to do anymore. The prices are insane, Yes, and
I didn't use my app and I should have had points.
I know I couldn't find it, would you not? Because

(38:12):
there was a thing I couldn't find because I wasn't
looking in the right place. I thought it was a
roll up. It's the steak poblano rolled casadilla and I
couldn't find it on the app, and I really wanted
to get that from Warren to try. I got spicy potato, tacos, cheese,
Casadilla's not Joe fries. He got five things. We just
went to Taco Bell Town. I love it. And finally

(38:34):
TJA Fridays is getting in on the six seven trend
for the rest of the month kids meals, come for free,
come with a free dessert. I should say between six
and seven pm. So I'm glad to know TJA Friday
still lives. Were is I don't know, but we lost
ours and it was one of my favorite places to go.
I wonder if there's still one in Novae. Yeah, we

(38:56):
lost ours in ann Arbor and I loved it. We
would go I mean, I would still go to t
JY Friday and say we're good.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
Yeah,
