phone number, and their email address and answer this question.
And the first segment of the show, Ben asked us
if we've been using what lately? He asked us how
much we were using something? If you were listening, you
know the first person, I'm sorry, the third person that
(00:37):
tells us. With the iHeart app on that talkback featured name,
phone number, email address, and the answer to the question what.
Ben asked us what we were using lately? You will

And now it's time for Basins week Day Up Day,
featuring veteran news anchor kt fun tweets here of the
important stories he's currently tracking from around the world.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Got the Pantera. The Stars start their playoffs tomorrow night.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Let's go. They are rare and in the form they
are not. They stumbled to the finish line seven straight losses.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
I think so, but you know, got Sagan back, but
then Jason Robertson got hurt, so and we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
They got Carl Sagan back and that's the problem.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
Hang in there.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
No, he's still Tyler. He hasn't switched to Carl yet. Guys,
can we stop goofing? Sorry?
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Colin County health officials are warning about a measles exposure
in Plano. It's now very close to us. It's been
getting closer and closer after its spread from that Minnnight
village out in West Tahos and unusually, yesterday we learned
that someone who spent a little time in Colin County
(01:49):
on April tenth and eleventh, that's one week ago, has
tested positive for measles. We know where they went, the
Walmart at six thousand and one North Central Breassway, right
up seventy five.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Then you hang out there a lot, don't you. I
do go there sometimes just to hang out.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
That's your personal Walmart. This is my store.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
A Ross Dress for Less at thirty three hundred North
Central Expressway.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Okay, I know that Ross. I know they're still around.
Oh they crush a week.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Ago today from five to ten pm. So if you
were in that window, look out.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
I went there right after the show.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I wance bounced to check there in nineteen ninety's dope, Man,
did you get a nice three peace suit?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Ben?
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I want you to start wearing three piece suits. I
bounced two checks in my life. One was to my
girlfriend's dad. One was to Bross.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Oddly enough, your girlfriend's dad named Ross, which makes it
very strange.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
He had a monkey named Marcel Art.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
Also, the Dollar Tree twenty four oh four k Avenue
right there downtown Plano.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
So they're a conscious shopper, more of a dollar store guy.
Well really, what do you mean? Dollar stores better than
Dollar General?
Speaker 5 (03:04):
Yeah? Yeah, you can tell he loves it. It's his thing,
This yellow one, the green ones a dollar tree.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Does Dollar General have an animated character that's a military leader.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
That insurance general? It's a Dollar General? Is he doing
commercials of the check? It makes no sense. I'm shuck.
I'll endorse anything.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Measles is one of the most contagious viruses in the world.
And here's how it spreads. I do not know this
until the day. Like we've been hearing a lot about measles,
but I didn't know this. I think via pub It
spreads through the airs when the infected person coughs, sneezes,
or just opens their mouth to talk or breathe.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Or the wind blows through their pubes.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
These particles can linger in a room fro up to
two hour hours after the infected person has gone. So
it's just like in these stores. And now we're gonna
get up. We're up to close to six hundred cases.
And I think we're good in the world. But if
you've seen a picture of someone with measles, it's enough
to make you go, I don't want that.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, six hundred cases in the world now in Texas.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Well, it's not happening anywhere else. Right, we had eradicated
this disease, Yeah, but now it's back.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
It's back with a vengeance.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
And I don't know how.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I don't know how long the measles vaccination lasts. And
I also, you know, I'm assuming I never got to
recharge on It's probably something I got as a kid
to go to school.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
We all assumed do we got it when we were
It's not real sure, who knows.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
It's tough to know.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Back in the day, they wouldn't let you in public
school if you didn't have your mm what's it called
mmrs or whatever?
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Is that different? Now? I don't know. I don't know either.
I don't care what kids are doing seventeen and nineteen.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I just I don't even know. I wish, I wish
I didn't know. I will say Ross. If we're gonna
play Dollar Tree, Family, Dollar Dollar General, now the Ross
side side pieces would be like TJ.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Max, Yeah, Coles Holes. I'm going there, there's the final
something on the clear truck. Maybe what a nice hat.
It kind of makes me sad when I go in there.
You feel sad me too, But I don't know why?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Why?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Why is it you guys are discount rack snobs? No, no,
I don't know why. What is that? I mean, I
definitely am, but why why does it make me sad?
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Because you guys are at the forefront of new fashion trends?
What you can buy there was a fashion trend three
years ago, and that's why it's new. But you can
get it at a discounted rate.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
That's what they're saying. That's what they're saying.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
They're saying all the newest stuff that's still technically new,
that's been out of fashion for eighteen months.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah, that's kind of what they deal. It feels like
a little chaotic, all right.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
