Speaker 1 (00:00):
Whether I was today. It is cold. It's just a
(00:01):
cold start to the day.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Today, it's nine degrees right now, we're getting up to
just twenty seven degrees today.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
I just don't understand. Chelsea mentioned my video earlier that
I made yesterday. Yeah, fine, And I even said this
in my I was like, it's winter, what do we expect?
Speaker 1 (00:18):
But there's some kind of middle ground we could have
come to.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Cause if you're coming at us as hard, now, what's
January going to be?
Speaker 4 (00:24):
Like?
Speaker 1 (00:24):
I'm terrified? Oh, I know, I literally terrified.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
I like even the National News I was listening to
this morning, like it was like, and the big story
across the country is from the Midwest to the east
going it's just talking about how cold it is. Want
to hear about ten things that happened ten years ago
this week, ten.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Years ago this week.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
It's fun a little we'll stroll down memory lane. Willard
Scott officially retired from The Today Show. I would have
assumed that happened twenty years ago.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Seriously, when's the last time you thought of or heard
or saw Willard's Is he is he still with us?
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Willard?
Speaker 4 (00:59):
He is not. He died in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
At eighty seventies.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Yes, that's right. Al Roker had been doing the job anyway.
He was just kind of like checking in every day
from like DC. I think he was doing full time weather.
Ten years ago, a study found that ending your text
with periods makes you sound rude. People over twenty five
were confused and shocked. Gen Z had already embraced the
no punctuation. I like a nice period at the end
(01:23):
of the sentence. I want to know that you've moved
on to the next thought.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
I feel bad when my text goes through before the
period got in there.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
It depends, though, because I've had people who will send
a text that's okay period, Well that's that's different.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah. Crystal Pepsi made a short comeback. I don't even
remember that. They announced that they were giving away thirteen
thousand and six packs. They eventually brought it back for
the real, for real, and the next summer it went
away again.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Crystal Clear Pepsi was a thing, was the nineties.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
It was really dumb.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Mister van Halen song right now, yeah, remember.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
No, I don't remember I remember the song, but I
don't remember that campaign.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, that was really dumb.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Why did they that would be like, oh, new Coke
celebrating our failure.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
It was ten years later, right, it was basically pepsi. No,
it was just clear. Yeah, that's right, that's all. And
it messes with your head because you don't really need
cola to even be that color.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
No you don't.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
But it's just like the green and purple ketchup, like
you can't read can around eating that.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
I don't know why this is a big thing that
happened ten years ago this week. It must have been
short on ideas, but a poll by Glad found that
hot chocolate was the number one holiday smell.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
But I think that has probably changed in ten years.
That's not right.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
What do you think the smell is now?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Like m P that's.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
Pumpkin spice stuff for Christmas Christmas?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Don't you think it carries carry over?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
What I think like cinnamon evergreen smell, Christmas tree smell.
You see a lot of those candles. Yeah, I think that.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Also the big short hit movie theaters ten years ago
this week, Americans understood the basics of the two thousand
and eight financial crisis, with some help from Margot Robbie.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
Wait, wasn't that movie really confusing?
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Though I don't mean I didn't see it or I
don't remember it.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Carrell, Ryan Gosling, Brad pitt All in it.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
That's so sad that no one saw it then and
I don't remember it now.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Ten years ago, everybody was seeing it. Where are they though,
I guess
Whether I was today. It is cold. It's just a
