Speaker 1 (00:00):
Interns, and you're a morning show. Happy Wednesday friends, Welcome

Speaker 1 (00:20):
I don't know, fair Fair fair Rose? Hello, Hello, got

three eight to text DMS at wymous Radio. Sauce, if
you started spring.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Cleaning, I guess I feel like I'm always cleaning.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Okay, fair Rose, we started spring cleaning bits and pieces
you see, kind of yes, I have not there we
go so coring this new study, the average American says
thirty four percent of the junk they own is stuff
they don't really need or rarely used. Yeah that number
seems low, Yeah, thirty four percent. It's probably half the

(00:57):
stuff my place. I'm like, I've never even I think.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
That when you're trying to like go through your stuff,
you're rationalizing why you need it, for sure. Yeah, Because
even I was trying to go through my kitchen a
few like a month ago, and I kept rationalizing why
I needed stuff. But I don't use most of that stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
It's like I could find old baseball uniform bike, but
I might. I might when my friends say, hey, do
you want to play baseball today? And I need my
uniform from seventh grade.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
He's never known.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
You never know could happen. They say. Twenty one percent
of it is definitely don't want but haven't got rid
of yet. Ten percent is other people's definitely sim lined
up with, which is kind of funny.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
That was me like years ago. We're always leaving stuff,
and I would put it in this drawer that I had,
and I would keep trying to give it back to people.
But then I'd be like, oh, they might want it later, sir,
but I it's stuff that I finally donated.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Thirteen percent is pure junk, sure, twenty seven percent of
stuff for hanging on to percentimental reasons.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
I had that problem with like old radio shirts. I'm like,
how this is? I want to go this shirt because
you never had my first station. It's like, yeah, probably
should make it one of those quilts. Yeah, like one
of those things. One nine percent of it is quote collectibles, okay,
or real least stuff that we think is collectibles. It's
kind of like that vibe or I Am at spark Joy,
So not really junk according to this. It's also the rationale.

(02:12):
It's like you said, junk, this is my this is
my life.
