Speaker 1 (00:53):
My gosh, I know, John dumb could you be to

do things. I was in the room when it happened,
and you'd be Murriam, I'll be I'll be John. Here

(01:14):

It's the night of Knots and I'm going to be exhausted.
We got to get down the knots. And Val wants
us there early. Okay, Okay, I understand.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Maybe you could just stop by, you could just stop,
you could just start it.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
Like start it. No, but I mean if I started,
then I feel like it's weird if I walk away,
So you'll start it and but no, but I have
to go to knots. Murriam, I have to vows like
a he's a slave driver. Man, it's just like it's tough.
So this is not at all how it went down.
He'll start, Okay, yeah, no, I'll do it. I'll do it.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
I'll do it. I'm sorry, I'll do anything for you.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:50):
No, Brian had it right. She was like, how about
you just started? And I was like, okay, if you
really need me, She's like, I'm no one else just started.
I was like all right, I'll start well.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
And she's okay, she said, I have no one else.
Just start it. Didn't you catch on? I have no
one else? So who was going to finish it?

Speaker 4 (02:04):
Well?

Speaker 6 (02:04):
I thought she was gonna worry about that, so I
was like, yeah, I get started. And then she's like, okay,
well you just stay for a half hour. And I
was like, well, I will be there for a half hour,
like you're gonna see me in the crowd. I'm gonna
go anyway. And she's like, then, why don't you just
host the whole thing and if.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
You gotta leave, we'll figure it out.

Speaker 6 (02:19):
You leave when you leave, just just host until you
can't anymore. And I was like, dang, she made a
great case.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
You're late to not because of this party. I'm late.
You're enough. You don't know why, because I've been hosting
these parties.

Speaker 7 (02:38):
My FM listen anywhere with the free iheard radio app what.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
A four three my FM? It is Valentine in the Morning, Welcome,
Welcome to the show. On this Thursday morning, how many
days till Christmas? Fourteen fourteen, two weeks ago? Wow, Wow,
what are you getting? Jeff?

Speaker 5 (02:57):
Okay, So he sprung this on me yesterday. Usually we
don't do gifts. We just say, you know, we're either
going to do like an experience or usually we're gone
during the holidays, which we're not doing this year because
we can't afford it with IVF. So we he said yesterday,
what do you want for Christmas? I was like, oh no,
we're not doing gifts. He's like, maybe we do gifts
this year, Like, oh no, what do you want for Christmas?

(03:20):
We both couldn't think of what we wanted. We're like, well,
I guess we could spend the money on maybe redoing
the bedroom because the room has nothing. It's just very bare.
The rest of the house, you know, is decorated, but
our room is just super So you.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Don't mean like construction or stuff like that, like maybe
some paint or wallpaper, or just like a new piece
of furniture, a new bed.

Speaker 6 (03:41):
That's so funny because we have the exact same situation.
Our real apartment is completely decorated. Nothing is in our room,
and we said, like one of the Christmas presents to ourselves.
This year, we'll be doing our bedroom perfect.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Okay, great, My wife said, our Christmas gift to each
other is this family vacation and we're taking with Colin.
But I've been married to her for twenty seven years.
She may say that's my gift. My gift is the
family vacation we're taken. You don't wrap that up under retreat.
It's not in a box you can open. So I
still get to figure out what she wants. I think

(04:11):
I might get her that new Atari system they have.
I have seen that, the retro Atari. This's got most
pac Man everything on it, and you got the joysticks
like back in the Day and everything. So it's a
cute little Atari system from back in the day, which
is a game that we played so often as a kid.
And I don't think it's too expensive. I haven't looked,
but I've seen it online, so I may check into that. Okay, Yeah, yeah,

(04:33):
what about you, Briy. You got plans for the old
wife there?

Speaker 3 (04:36):
For christ the gift, we've already discussed it. She gave
me a suitcase, she already gave it to me to
get out, and I'm giving her some money towards a
phone because I can't afford an entire iPhone myself. That
we're not big gift people. And it was just it's
very like, kind of practical, not romantic at all. So

(04:58):
there's the Oh my god, that's more expensive than I thought.
The Atari twenty six hundred plus pac Man Edition console
game and a wireless joystick one hundred and sixty nine bucks.
But that's I mean, it's not that's fine. Huh, yeah,
that's not too bad.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
But is it like some thought in it too? I
like this gift? Yeah, and it says Atari on it.
It looks like the old Atari console. See John, you've
never seen one of these, have you?

Speaker 5 (05:21):
No?

Speaker 1 (05:21):
I don't know what that is? Seriously? Really yeah, I've
seen them like online and stuff, right, not so, I assume,
But it doesn't Is it made by Atari? The brand
is deep silver, so maybe not. I don't know if
Atari even exists anymore. Somebody probably brought the rights or
something like that. I'll have to check into that. That's
my idea there. That's cute getting a suitcase. I already
got it at my house right now. Huh what do

(05:43):
you think that means? I don't like did you need
a suitcase?

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Kind of yes, I did, and she was like, there's
this Black Friday deal I just for you.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
I'm not missing out on Black Friday next year. There
was some stuff that I should have got because now
it's like double the price. I'm like, oh man, Black
Friday Monday. I missed out because I'm too cheap. I
didn't want to pull the trigger. My kid was getting
stuff left and right. It's not fair. He made out
like a bandit. You know, all right? It is one

my list?

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Is is it really? Oh yeah? Do they do shots
at Knots? Yeah? Really? Oh yeah? I thought they just
served like you know, little he brings in his own bottle.
I think you do not do. Listen, the shots are happening.
How they happen is none of your business. Okay, let
me just fire a shot across the bow, so to speak.
Are you coming in Friday morning?

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Well, yeah, I'll come in right.

Speaker 1 (07:48):

a shot that you might be.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Like, oh my god, what do One shot is not
gonna kill you?

Speaker 1 (08:03):
When have you ever in the history of ever just
settled on one shot never never. What do you like
to what do you like to shoot? Sandra? What's going
down the old pipe pole for you?

Speaker 8 (08:18):
It's been a while since I've taken shots. I'm like
a you know mom, so I have to like kind
of be on yeah, not you know, radar.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
But if I.

Speaker 8 (08:27):
Were to take a shot, it would probably be some
sort of tequila.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Okay, tequila shots? All right?

Speaker 5 (08:35):

Speaker 5 (13:51):

Speaker 1 (13:55):
There was one year you get very, very sick. This
is before John. Yeah, and me and the other guy
we didn't get sick because we wore gloves, yes, And
then you got super sick because you didn't.

Speaker 5 (14:06):
And this was right before COVID. And I promise you
I had COVID.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Oh you think so.

Speaker 5 (14:10):
I feel like it was because I was. That was
the most sick I've ever been in my child life.
Remember you guys called me on like day four of
my sickness and you put me on the air and
I could barely even talk and I.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
Felt so bad.

Speaker 9 (14:23):
No, we did.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Why are you laughing when I said that we felt
so bad. Yeah, really, yes, Why would it be feeling
great if our friend was sick and not working.

Speaker 5 (14:32):
I remember there was one time I was getting an
MS transit like a steroid that I had to have
at home when there was an IVY drip and I
told you guys I was going to be out, and
you guys called me at like six point thirty in
the morning and it was something about like what font
do I use for the weather? And I was like,
oh my gosh, you guys.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Should Jill types up the weather piece of paper. And
I love her fonts, so that sounds accurate. Do you
remember the time you get a cold oscar and we
called me to the book your colon?

Speaker 5 (15:01):
Oh yeah, yeah, I remember that.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
It's your coldon talking here looking good? Oh so good?
On the should We can't do it for a second
without you, right, So were some gloves you know, wear
gloves tonight, but you do have para gloves.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
I do wearing glove gloves, all right.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Not it's very far. Your ticket's coming up this hour.
It's Valentine the morning.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
Text Valentine in the morning at three one oh four three.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
I don't know, Maybe it's a problem my marriage. We'll
find out, right, John has got a warning for couples.
I understand it. And John, being an expert on coupledom,
we now go to him for this.

Speaker 6 (15:37):
Yeah, it's come to my attention. Today's somewhat of a holiday.
The most popular day of the year that people break up.
Oh no, is today.

Speaker 1 (15:46):
Eleventh. It's kinmember eleventh. Really, Yeah, isn't that kind of interesting?

Speaker 6 (15:49):
Apparently, like fifteen years ago, a bunch of researchers used
to like study Facebook statistics, you know, like I used
to put your status on Facebook like single and sure
whatever that was. So they studied that for a matter
of time, and over the years they determined that December
eleventh was the most common day that people would change
their status and break up. So Ever, since then, today's
labeled breakup day.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Well, by the way, those researchers not together anymore. I
will say, this is one of the first surveys you've
got that I actually look at as somewhat credible.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Now, I take these somewhat credible and put that right
there little italics, because within my little papoo world, I'm
very good at this game. I'm very good. Ats I
should have worked in statistics, right, because in my somewhat
credible view, yes, the very basis for the research is
very good because you're saying, hey, over fifteen years, I
looked at when people post their statuses, Right, do people

(16:45):
post right away? Not necessarily, so maybe they didn't break
up in the state whatever. So put that to the cible.
Let's say maybe they did break up today. Well, and
it's only people who are prolific and active on social
media networks. That's a very certain group of the community
as well. Also, then age specific comes into it. They
tend to say that this is particularly for boyfriends or girlfriends.

Speaker 4 (17:05):
Right.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Marriages, Yeah, you know what I mean, that could end
at any moment, and the marriages don't necessarily post the
day they break in right, right, right, because it's such
a hard thing with the marriage versus I've been dating
her or him for a month or two.

Speaker 6 (17:17):
Well, they gave some of the thinking too, which I
thought was kind of interesting. They say, it's not too
close to the holidays for it to be too cruel,
uh huh, But it's also like far enough away so
you don't really have to like engage in the presence
with them, and you don't really have to bring them
around the family for the big family events, and especially
for newer relationships, like sometimes Christmas can make a new
relationship feel more serious than it is, so like if

(17:38):
you're not serious about it, now is the time a
lot of people cut it off before you get into
that window where they're meeting mom and dad and all.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
I didn't have that back in the day. I do
remember back and then I think Jill knows the story.
I'm not sure if you know the story of Shannon.
But this girl I dated before my wife and Dallas,
and we were dating and uh, it was fine, but
then it wasn't fine, and we just knew it wasn't right.
But we already committed to visit her parents for the holiday,
and so we had to visit her parents for the holidays.
But we both knew and said our hearts like we're
just men for each other. We're gonna break up. Yeah,

(18:06):
And so a matter of parents like knowing this and
going through motions because neither one of us was adult
enough at that moment to tell the other that hey,
it isn't working out, and that adultness hopefully comes to
all of us throughout the years. But it wasn't there
for me in my early twenties, wasn't there for her.
So we went through the motions and pretending to be happy.
But yet I knew she'd be in the kitchen with
her mom or dad going come Monday, I'm done with this,

(18:30):
I figured, always saying, Oh, you just got to tell him,
just be honest, she's going to your brother's basketball game.
He never forget that stuff, right, It stays with you
all these years later.

Speaker 5 (18:40):
I was broken up with on Christmas morning.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yeah, which one was it? I do know who that is.

Speaker 5 (18:46):
Yeah, he didn't want to go to my family's Christmas
or not.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
It was intercellar. No, you don't talk inception inception.

Speaker 5 (18:55):
Right, but he didn't want to one to my family's
Christmas parties. So he broke up with me that morning.
And then December twenty sixth, he was like, ah, gosh,
you know I thought about it. I'd like to swear,
and I.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Was like, no, that's how you get out of a gift.
You know, you break up Christmas morning, no gift. December
twenty six let's get back together. Nice Christmas is all?
You didn't your other boyfriend on the twenty fifth catch
you something maybe you saw somebody while we're broken up
for a day. The inception was because I went to
see the movie with the guy, yeah, and Jill and
my wife and stuff. So that's the only way she
could keep me without saying a name. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

(19:26):
that's pretty funny.

Speaker 6 (19:27):
Hey, think of the plus side though. If a bunch
of people are getting dumped right now, there's a lot
of new single people on the.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
Market for those who are getting dumped. He sorry. Holidays
are tough though. I mean, we all, you know, get
happy and cheerful and jump up and down for the
holiday music and stuff like that, and it straight down
the hall and everything. There's Christmas decorations everywhere and honekan decorations,
people celebrating quans and all these things. But there are
people that deal with difficulties at the holidays. You might

(19:53):
be one of them listening to our show right now, going, oh,
what a fun topic. But it's important, I think for
you to know that other people wreck recognize that in
the world that maybe the holidays for you aren't the
big joyous celebration that they are for a lot of
us right now. And that might be just for this year.
It might be for a number of years, so it
might be a bummer of times for you. Whatever it is,
people recognize that and hopefully recognized and that it's not

(20:17):
just perfect for everybody, helps those people get through it.
What are you eating over there? What are you doing?
You're doing a cards. You're still doing the cards.

Speaker 5 (20:27):
You're doing all the extra ones that we did.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Oh my god, we're stuffing Christmas cards yesterday, by the way.

Speaker 5 (20:33):
And who's your girl?

Speaker 1 (20:35):
You're my girl wife, because you were doing it right,
you were listening, paid attention. Is your boy? That did
it fastest. I didn't want the job done fastest. I
wanted the job done right. He's over there, go boo.
People are getting cards upside down. You gotta put him
in the right way. People are getting doubled cards. Probably.
Then he's in charge of the Christmas card list, like

(20:57):
he maintains it on a Google doc. He sends it
to me the other day and I look at it
last night. So many people entered their name, like three
or four times. You Egypt? Oh no, sorry, a higher
sturdy word. I thought you would have placed it, so
I should go in. I got to take out line
by line, and people that have entered it twice. I
got port Chat GPT looking for duplicates, going, I don't know.

(21:19):
This thing is a mess. Oh god. So if you
get more than one Christmas card, you're a bad, bad
person and I'm gonna come spank you.

Speaker 5 (21:27):
Some people might like that.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
He's a new Queer Eye, Yeah, the right one because
I was friends with the old guys og Queer Eye. Yes,
and they came in put me on the show one
time and decorated me. Back in the day when they're
trying to get pressed for the show when it first
came out, and so you were going to address this
radio star. They came in and did me did a
whole makeover. Yeahat, do you have photos?

Speaker 5 (22:25):
Because I don't think I was.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
You know, you weren't with me, then I might have been.

Speaker 5 (22:28):
I might have been there. That sure, photos, I'd love
to see.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
It's probably the most put together I've ever looked.

Speaker 5 (22:38):
I saw this video yesterday on TikTok. There was a
woman who said that actress Hillary Swank, you know her
from a Million Dollar Baby, Karate Kid ps, I love you.
She said she ran into Hillary Swank at La X
in baggage Claim, and she and her family were there
because her son was on his Make a Wish trip
going to Disneyland and she was taking pictures of him

(22:59):
in baggage claim. Apparently, Hillary Swank went up to her
and really got angry that she was taking photos, and
this mom posted about it on TikTok and was saying like,
I don't know what I did. I wasn't even taking
pictures of her. I was taking pictures of my son.
I saw this video yesterday, I was like, oh gosh,
that seems a little harsh. Hillary Swank has reached out
and apologized to the woman. I guess this video went

(23:21):
viral and now they're saying that she apologized. Really, what
was happening was she thought the woman was taking photos
of her kids, who she's very about.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
She's taking pictures of her kid.

Speaker 5 (23:30):
Right, her kid baggage claim. So I know that this
video is going viral. So if you see it, just
know Hillary Swank has apologized. Oh okay, I'm Jill with
their an team in headlines.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
Yeah. I guess if you're a big star and you're
there with your kids, you're super famous and stuff, and
you see somebody snapping photos like, oh, they're going after
my kids.

Speaker 5 (23:44):
Yeah, maybe it was a long travel day.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
Yeah, and truth be told, I'd be there doing that. Go,
I don't even know who you are, Like the worst
you like this slept going, he stopped taking pictures of me.
I don't know you, Like literally, we didn't know Hillary Swank.
But I'm the worst at recognizing people. Jill and I
always joked if we're doing red cartage, she has to
do all that because I'd be like, unless you're Tom Cruise,

(24:06):
I just I don't recognize people when they walk in
Tom Cruise or my cousin Marlon. That's it one of
four three fabu is Valence out of the morning. A
few minutes ago, joke goes, I have a great idea.
I have a great idea. What if we do this?
This is perfect, it's great. We do the party not

(24:28):
to marry Farm, then we go to bed at Knots
Mary Farm's hotel. Then we get up in the morning,
broadcast live from the hotel lobby and invite people like
to stay over they should have stayed over at the hotel,
and then we all broadcast live from the lobby. Isn't
it a great idea for Notts? Then nobody has to
drive home to Riverside or far away places, or drive
from Notts to Burbank or anything. It's a great idea,

(24:51):
right right, I go. I think it's kind of hard
to turn around for tomorrow. Well just thrown step out there,
you know. Twenty twenty six, twenty twenty six. I'm trying
to make it through twenty twenty five, but I appreciate
the efforts. It's one of four to three my FM

(25:15):
one four three, My mem it is Valentine in the morning.
What's going on? Seven o eight? If you guys got finals,
midterms coming up by this week, next week or something
like that. I hope you don't okay with that. And
a lot of kids stress on that stuff. Hang tight,
juniors and seniors. I was if I was tweeting or
xing about it the other day, and I'm like, why
am I doing this? None of them read X or Twitter.

(25:36):
Oh you know, kids in school, I don't think they're
on that platform. Yeah, probably not. Some athletes are because
they try and interact to different coaches and stuff like that,
especially like in the football world. I guess they're big
on there and stuff. My kid in the soccer world
not so much in that. Do you guys hear about
the head coach University of Michigan. No, no, out, one
of the biggest coaching jobs in America, University of Michigan,

(25:59):
And I believe that's school. Yeah, and he's out And
then he was in jail. You get arrested for something too.
It's a whole big thing. At ESPN, they're talking about
this wedding. Oh it's kind of crazy, but what a
coaching job. And then I thought, wait a minute, would
would Tom ready to do that?

Speaker 2 (26:14):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Tom, he might go back and play again to Philip
Rivers is back playing?

Speaker 3 (26:22):
Right?

Speaker 1 (26:23):
What's up my man? Philip Rivers back down in the field.
They're playing for the cults, right? Goodness? Gracious, do I
still have some eligibility left?

Speaker 4 (26:33):
You know?

Speaker 1 (26:34):
It's a Yukon marching band.

Speaker 5 (26:36):
Need another drawing man, right, get back out the back.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
On the field. See if the pants still fit? All right?
Kevin up later on this hour. Did attending weddings make
you go broke this year? John?

Speaker 6 (26:50):
Yeah, dude, I feel like there's some people out there
that feel me. It's like twenty five to thirty five,
I think is that range? And I'm just right in
the middle of it.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
I have six weddings this year, like in different states
to and it just like really takes a toll on
your bank account, you know. Yeah? Who was the most
expensive find a new jersey for a wedding? Carla Marie?
Name them? Name them Carla Marie and Anthony. What are
you doing? You made people broke?

Speaker 4 (27:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (27:17):
Well, I will say, though I do respect how extravagant
that way a great way fly for a wedding.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Make it worth people? Were you part of the bridal
party or party or just a guest?

Speaker 10 (27:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (27:28):
I wonder what they gave out to their grim spin
and stuff and their bridle parties. It's gotta be something
they spent that much. Because you said her dad was
like mob or something. It seems like it. He worked
like in the recycling garbage or something in Italian from
Jersey and they had a bafo. If you work in
garbage recycling in Jersey, aren't you like a allegedly rumored

(27:49):
to be Yeah, well sleep with the fishes?

Speaker 3 (27:54):
All right?

Speaker 1 (27:55):
Wow, so you went broke your poor thing. Yeah, man,
it spent tough year. I didn't really get to save. Yeah,
it was just this say, like a public announcement of this,
just because Olivia is listening to your girlfriend. Now we
haven't got her chrismas gift.

Speaker 6 (28:06):
She's about to step into that world too. We're both
in it because now she's my date to weddings and
now her friends are starting to get into that phase too.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
So it's just the next couple of years. Yeah. But
in my history of relationships, I think you've got to
go bigger than she does at Christmas. And that's may
have been something that what's wrong in my marriage for years.
Here I'm learning that because I'm a bad gift giver. Yeah,
she's like spot on dude. Oh, she has like a
list from the entire year. Then that pressure is on.

You can wait for the news ten more seconds. Sage
and three things you need to know right now now.
If you bought anything from the Google Play Store between
twenty sixteen and twenty twenty three, you might get some
money back. Google has agreed to a seven hundred million

(33:29):
dollars settlement overclaims that they overcharged customers and limit to
their app choices. The average payout will be about two bucks.
Oh okay, that could be even higher depending on how
much you spent. So you spent a lot in a
Google play store. I didn't. I'm an Apple guy, so
I don't know, but maybe you did. The Powerball jackpot's

(33:50):
grown to a billion dollars. Nobody won last night Your
Next Chance to Play Saturday Night, one of the biggest
Powerball prizes ever. Of course, a large check whatever was
two billion dollar grand prize won by a man alt two.
Since then, this guy, he's purchased several multimillion dollar luxury
homes in southern California. He's gone like wild and people
know who he is and where the homes are and stuff. Well, yeah,

(34:12):
your money, do what you want with it, John Comuci,
what is training your music?

Speaker 5 (34:17):
So?

Speaker 1 (34:17):
Billie Eilish has a concert film coming out for her
hit Me Heart and Soft Tour. This thing is in
three D. She just dropped the trailer for it.

Speaker 6 (34:24):
It looks super cool, and that's probably because it was
directed by James Cameron, Jill's bestie and creator of the
Avatar movies. So it comes out in theaters in March
of next year. But he even said no one has
shot a concert film on this scale before. It's going
to be super cool. So if you're curious, we linked
that trailer up on our Instagram in the stories at
Valentine in the Morning, I'm John Comuci.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
That's what's trending in music. John, thank you for the
legal disclosure as well. Say you clearly took your iHeart
training and knew which bucket to put that in.

Speaker 5 (34:51):
When you started the story, I was like, please, don't please, don't.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
Well, listen to you, James Cameron and your brother in law.
It's a whole thing.

Speaker 5 (35:00):
I met James Cameron.

Speaker 4 (35:01):
Uh huh.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
And boy, the way you guys have that speech down
so well, you know what I mean. It's like it
was a rehearsed almost. Yeah, another chance at tickets to
a private holiday party. Not very farm. Get a bunch
of those before eight o'clock. Plus, did weddings make you
go broke this year?

Speaker 5 (35:15):
Like Nadia who texted in that said, I've learned from
my mistakes this year, no weddings, and I was able
to go on a vacation from all the money I saved.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
Oh gosh, it's funny. Yeah, destination weddings. Weddings are across
the coast. John spent a lot. John went on six
weddings this year. Have you spent a lot of money
on weddings this year, John went the six weddings. The
most expensive was Carla, Marie and Anthony's wedding. Shout out, yeah,

(35:45):
they should know. They cost you a lot of money,
a lot of money. John is a wearing fruit of
the loom underwear now instead of his regular like stance
and parthees and all the severywhares right, recycled, recycled Yes
from who ooh, I can't say all right, that's odd,
that part's odd. So textan three one oh four three.
Have you spent a lot of money on weddings this

(36:06):
pass year?

Speaker 5 (36:07):
Like this text says, my two nephews got married, one
in September and one November. Very expensive, but they are
thirty six and thirty eight, so it was about time.
Another text says, yes, I went to a destination wedding
that was only a few hours away. I wasn't even
in the wedding and so still somehow spent eight hundred dollars.
And then this text says, honestly, I love love, but

(36:28):
not four hundred dollars worth of it per weekend.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
Wow, this one it makes sense because says heck, yes,
my one and only daughter got married eleven, twenty twenty
five cost me a bundle, but it was so worth it.
Well as your daughter though, So yeah, that's nice. Eight

Please know your stuff about the met Gala.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
I do Met Gala. I know myself. I'll never go
to it. I'll never be allowed near it. I'm not
a fashionista. I have no fashion sense, but I do
find it fascinating culturally. Hi Christine, Hello, Hello, So Christine,
I have spent too much on weddings this year. Yes, really,
we had.

Speaker 10 (37:38):
We had three weddings, two were out of town and
so we had to travel a lot and one was
in Baton Rouge and then the other one was north.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
Let me throw someone out there, and I'm thinking about
you and John Beau. Johnny had how many wedding six
at six this year? Yeah, and you had three Christina
and a lot about of town. Should they be and
we could put caveats on it bookends so to speak,
ten years, five years, twenty years, whatever. Right, if it
doesn't work out in the first five years of the marriage,
should those people refund you travel expenses something? Is there

(38:12):
anything to that? Or you say the first year whatever
it is. I don't know, mussul be and refund the
gift or something. You know, if you're giving a really
nice kitchen aid stand mixer, you know, put some of
the guests in the prenup. Right, I'm with you on that,
my man, John, you're having it hot. Put in the
gift of the prenup. What do you think about that?
That Christine? You think about that?

Speaker 4 (38:34):
No?

Speaker 11 (38:35):
No, I don't think that's right.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
All right, Well, you've got a good heart. But odds
are out of those three you went to, one of
them is going to argue over who gets a kitchen
aid mixer probably probably, and you know which one. If
you're a betting woman, don't you.

Speaker 12 (38:54):
Maybe?

Speaker 1 (38:55):
Yeah? Are you married?

Speaker 9 (38:56):
I am?

Speaker 1 (38:57):
Is it more annoying to go to weddings after you're married?

Speaker 6 (39:00):
Because as of right now, at least I'm going to
these weddings, and I'm like, all right, these people at
least have to bring it back around for mine someday.

Speaker 1 (39:05):
But now, yeah, he's a point. No, things are's so
much more expensive. The gifts are bigger. People are getting experiences.
I didn't get experiences. I didn't get, Hey, we're gonna
pay for your entire scuba session of the island of Malli.
You know, I got like a paper play. I don't
even if you got that.

Speaker 5 (39:27):
I feel very attacked for this whole ENTI I know.
But like the divorce, you want to give back.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
We gave the very nice What did we give you?

Speaker 5 (39:42):
I don't remember. John Peak, our boss, gave us the
kitchen aid mixer that is still on my counter to
this day.

Speaker 1 (39:52):

Club is the best place to Valentine the morning. My
friend just texted me on this topic. He goes, Hey,
my first marriage lasted three years, So I guess I
owe you guys that toaster. I'll drop it off next week.
There's no he said Leilani. Right, he goes, I'll tell
us send Leilani back that toaster. There is no way

(40:54):
that we got somebody a toaster for a wedding gift.
It was like supernice, long time ago, not buying somebody
a toaster.

Speaker 5 (41:03):
It's on their registry.

Speaker 1 (41:04):
Yeah, but just a toaster. Now there's something like high
tech ones.

Speaker 4 (41:08):
But this is no no.

Speaker 1 (41:09):
This is years ago though, So this would have been
like twenty twenty five years ago. So like this wedding,
we're talking about a four slicer like matters it for you.
Instead it doesn't utter it for you. There are nice
toasters out there, though, but I just don't think and
the tech wasn't there like twenty plus years ago. I
don't think we got this person a toaster. We would
have gotten them something more than a toaster. My high
school buddy, I got him a toaster.

Speaker 3 (41:31):
That was it.

Speaker 5 (41:32):
Maybe it was more, Yeah, but they kept it what
I don't know. I don't know what, but he kept
I was cleaning my glasses and I just zoned out.

(43:37):
forward or what is it flash forward? Fast forward?

Speaker 1 (43:40):
I'd say fast forward?

Speaker 5 (43:42):
Fuck, I don't know, fast forward?

Speaker 1 (43:44):
Yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 4 (43:45):
Uh.

so wow, every single one is for tickets.

Speaker 5 (45:11):
Sad face emojis like.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Yeah and then what emoji? That probably shouldn't have been
said that vegetables should probably not be used when asking
for Notts tickets. Brandon, my man, thanks for holding on.
How many weddings have you been to this year?

Speaker 7 (45:28):
So I went to the mouth six weddings this past year.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
Six weddings, just like John six. Yeah, were you in
any of those? In the party?

Speaker 2 (45:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (45:36):
Then three of them, four of them.

Speaker 5 (45:42):
And with ladies, there's the dress, the makeup, the hair,
the bridle shower, the bachelorette, the shoes, the jewelry. There's
so much being in a bridle party.

Speaker 7 (45:51):
Oh yeah, and the fun The funny thing too, is
the one that she was in that was last minute.
It was all the way in Mexico, in Wa Lahara,
and so we had to go like three days in advance,
and then after we had to stay the nextra day
and it just it piled up.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
It's a lot, and that's very expensive, all that stuff.

Speaker 3 (46:09):
Oh yeah, oh yeah it is.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
But it was a lot of fun.

Speaker 7 (46:12):
Uh we're we're saying we're not going to do the
same thing next year, but we've already been invited to
like three three more.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
Today is the day. Today is the day that a
lot of couples break up. So there's that people relationships
and put that to the side. But maybe in the
new year, you guys stop making friends.

Speaker 3 (46:35):
You know.

Speaker 7 (46:36):
And the funny thing is a lot of them weren't
our immediate friends, and we were actually surprised that we
got like in the bridal party and the crews party.

Speaker 1 (46:44):
Who they weren't you, like, true true friends and you
got asked to be in the party, the wedding party.

Speaker 3 (46:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (46:49):
I think it's because my my fiance issue was in
PA school and so we would always go over there,
or at least I would, And I guess they just
really ended up liking her and I, so they put
us in all their their activities together and well.

Speaker 1 (47:06):
Ones of the group. Truth be told, you two are
probably pretty attractive, because I know some couples that just
want to have good wedding photos and stuff, so they
hire or they ask attractive people to be in their
wedding party.

Speaker 7 (47:21):
Maybe maybe who knows, but we'll take that as a compliment.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
Or wait, conversely, maybe you're not attractive and they wanted
to make sure that they were the most attractive in
the photos. Probably that makes more sense now, No, Brandon,
You're the best, buddy. Have a great day. Thanks for
listening to the show. Appreciate you man, Hey, thank you
so much.

Speaker 2 (47:44):
Guys.

Speaker 1 (47:44):
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, my friend, bye bye bye bye.
Hi Casey, Hello, how much did you hello?

Speaker 5 (47:52):
Is that you?

Speaker 1 (47:55):
How much you just spend on weddings this past You're
a lot?

Speaker 9 (47:58):
Yes, thousand dollars on hotels alone because it was over
three weekends.

Speaker 1 (48:03):
I'm sorry, what was that number?

Speaker 4 (48:05):
A thousand?

Speaker 6 (48:06):
Oh my gosh, I just spent that much going to
New Jersey. I know, but I only had to do
one major destination. But yeah, they also had a dress code.
It was like all black and I didn't like have
a fitting black suits. And then I had to pay
for one of those two.

Speaker 1 (48:18):
Oh yeah, it adds up. Man, Yeah, all black. You
should have rated my closet. I know, are you going
to judge them if the gift you gave exceeds the
gift they give?

Speaker 3 (48:29):
No?

Speaker 9 (48:29):
I think you know what kind of bounces out?

Speaker 1 (48:31):
And does it? John? Do you have a little mental
checklist to the gifts you're giving?

Speaker 6 (48:34):
The gift I don't care for because I'm not a
gift giver. But like, if I have a destination wedding
and I came to your destination wedding, you better be
on that flight.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
Yeah, okay, all right, thanks for Colin, case you have
a great day.

Speaker 9 (48:46):
Thank you on the Christmas list picture.

on Year Live. And our boss Paul Crimino and John
Peek will be finding out as we do it now

what happened at your company's holiday office party that you
had to deal with if you work in HR, Because
we have a company holiday party today. Yes, John Camucci
will be dancing on the main stage at the holiday
party and hosting as well. One of those things is
true now after a few minutes and sag now, probably

I tell you something else? And this is like, this
is only for people that it's gonna affect, and it's
a small amount. Advertisers of iHeart, call your salesperson today
at like two because they'll probably be tipsy and you

your commercials when you call your salespeople after the holiday party.

the last day to win nots tickets with y'all. I

(51:32):
melted inside a little when he said yes please. I'm
quietly dying sitting next to him, wanting to turn the
radio back on to see if it's time to call

a win. This kid needs a night off to decompress
and have some fun creative. Well, he's a sophomore. The
junior year sometimes arguably one of the most important years
in your college world as you head towards college and

(51:55):
stuff from high school. But if you're listening right now,
you would have known that I said you win. But
since you're not listening, you'll never know. That's rough.

Speaker 1 (53:53):
I appreciate that. Coming up in three Things you Need
to Know, Triple A's predicting that people will be traveling
in record breaking numbers this holiday season. Is there a
good day to travel and a bad day to travel?
We all get that Thanksgiving thing, we know when the
bad days there, But of Christmas, this day might actually

(54:14):
shock you that you don't want to be on the
roads on this particular day. That's coming up. Three Things
you Need to Know, Three Days you need to Know
right now, Part eight twenty two. It's Valencie in the morning.
This is one of four three mile AFM if you're
headed in the school today. I have a great day
at school. Shout to my son Colin headed in the school.
Have a great day, buddy. I love you. I know
you said you listen to your dad three out of
five days of the week. So that's not fad. Maybe
this is one of them. Something Yeah, three out of five.

(54:37):
I actually said to my god, how much you listen
to a show? Hey say, you're hitting about a three
out of five? Thanks Sunday. All those words are come
out of your dad's mouth. Pay for everything that you're doing.

Speaker 4 (54:47):
No, no, no, no no.

Speaker 1 (54:49):
Americans are hitting the road and record number is this
holiday season. Triple expects over one hundred and twenty two
million people to travel between December twentieth and January first,
so here in southern California, the busiest days, the busiest
days on the roads of Sokel will be the weekend
before Christmas. They said. The twentieth and twenty first are

(55:09):
very high travel days, combined with last minute shopping days.
Most people plan to drive to their destination. Around the country,
gas prices are below three dollars a gallon across the country,
but here in sunny southern California, where we enjoy that
winter blend and that summer blend prices are closer to

(55:29):
hold on a minute for sixty a gallon the rest
of the country paying three bucks. So I say we
all hit the road, drive to Texas, phillip or tanks
and drive back. Okay, that'll teach them, Mackenzie Scott. I mean,
my gosh, Mackenzie Scott. I would love to meet Mackenzie Scott,
not to try and get money, but just to say

(55:50):
thank you. She's given Calsey Northridge a massive sixty three
million dollar donation, her second gift to the school after
a forty million dollar donation in twenty twenty one. So
I don't know what you guys are paying and tuition
over cals eight, but raise the red flagg when my
bit I an't thingk At those points.

Speaker 5 (56:08):
When I went there, I remember it being somewhat reasonable
compared to what all my friends were paying.

Speaker 11 (56:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:16):
Mackenzie Scott is a philanthropist, obviously, with a net worth
of thirty three billion dollars, which comes from Amazon share
she received after her twenty nineteen divorce from Jeff Bezos.
She has donated seven billion to schools and charities this
year alone the year before that, I think was like
three billion dollars. She donates so much money and to listen,
you're like, she's got thirty three billions. She did it

(56:36):
seven You're like, oh, wow, you're really you kind of
knocked that down a bit. But the money she makes
probably in a regular basis for not just interest, but
her accounts is probably massive in the stock and I
don't know if there's a dividend with Microsoft stock, I
have no idea or Amazon stock rather, I don't know
if there's a dividend with that. But wow, what a person.

Speaker 5 (56:56):
Ye to donate that much money as a matador? Thank you?

Speaker 1 (57:01):
Do you get any of that money?

Speaker 5 (57:02):
No, but it's just you know, helping our school.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
But seven billion dollars she has donated this year, that's awesome.
More billionaires learn from this woman, she leads away, learn
from her. John what's training your music?

Speaker 6 (57:15):
So if you spend any time online, you might remember
when Taylor Swift's recent album came out, there's a lot
of chatter back and forth about it. Well, there is
some news research that shows that a lot of the
outrage from Taylor Swifts The Life of a Showgirl wasn't
organic at all. This group looked at twenty five thousand
posts and found that a huge chunk of that conversation
was kicked off by bot like inauthentic accounts, and then

(57:38):
real fans they.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
See that, they respond, they argue, and then it just.

Speaker 6 (57:43):
It turns out nearly forty percent of posts in those
conversations came from accounts that weren't even real. Really, that's
how we're saying, And it's strange to learn, like how
coordinated this stuff could be sometimes, But it's a good
reminder that, like, not every discourse online is necessarily real.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
You're just feeding into the drama. I'm John Kamud. That's
what's trending in music. So maybe the Kansas City Chiefs
aren't that bad. Maybe it's a bunch of bots talking
about there's a score to prove that. One Okay, you're right,
A twenty five it's my fam, do you work in
hr calls up?

Speaker 2 (58:12):
If you dobo dream high in the quiet of the night.

Speaker 12 (58:15):
And all that, I got it.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
One A four to three, my fam, it is valance
out in the morning. It's eight twenty eight. Oh my gosh,
it's at this time of the year. You have to
let this stuff go, Jill, she's all fired up. Kiss
FM had a Christmas party for their staff yesterday and
we're not having one for us. We're still waiting on
the pizza party for being number one with the iHeartRadio presets.
We still haven't got that. But these things will drive

(58:43):
you crazy. You've got to let them go. My love,
You've got to let him go.

Speaker 5 (58:47):
In twenty twenty six, I would love a button over
here that overrides phone.

Speaker 1 (58:56):
I am such a brat. I am such a brat
when it comes to that. Yeah, you need a button
over there for your own mic because I have to
turn on everybody's mics, turn them off and watch the
levels and stuff in charge.

Speaker 5 (59:04):
Of our own mics.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
Yes, absolutely, yeah, you work at that fore well yes,
so Kiss had a big Christmas party. Yes, what you're saying, guys, Well,
John B could take notes. We're still waiting on the
pizza parties.

Speaker 5 (59:17):
We'll get it.

Speaker 1 (59:18):
We'll get it right eight sixty six five four to
four my event. Do your work in HR. We're curious
about the some of the things you had to deal
with after holiday parties.

Speaker 5 (59:29):
You can text us at three one oh four three.
This tech says after ten years. In HR, almost every
year there is someone that gets fired or demoted no
for making a fool out of themselves with too many drinks.

Speaker 1 (59:41):
I thought people kind of realized that that stuff happens.
Don't do that anymore. That was very much like a
nineties thing.

Speaker 6 (59:47):
You would think, maybe, but I feel like if you
have a problem, you don't really know that you're going
to get there.

Speaker 5 (59:51):
You know, this tech says our company had a real
missiletoe at our party, and we had an issue with
too many co workers at actually kissing under the mistletoe,
which you can imagine is a major HR issue. We
could not unsea. That's fun kissing your coworkers.

Speaker 6 (01:00:11):
Anyway, Go ahead, Brian will say something security guard just
kissed you the other day, and you had a flip
out of that.

Speaker 1 (01:00:17):
Yeah, the security guard kissed you. Our security guard kissed
like five people or something, because other people started talking
about it like he was a kissing bandit that day,
you know, like the wet bandits from hold On. He
was like the kissing bandit.

Speaker 5 (01:00:30):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:00:31):
I was crazy just walking around kissing dudes out of
like nowhere. No ladies are right, no, no ladies. But
some guys have secret. Yeah, all right, then.

Speaker 5 (01:00:42):
This text says someone slow danced with the CEO's wife
when the CEO was not present, and it ended up
being a massive company scandal.

Speaker 1 (01:00:51):
Slow dancing with the CEO's wire huh. Eight sixty six
five four for my.

Speaker 2 (01:00:57):
FM Valentine Morning three one four three, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:01:03):
The weather today sunny, warm, tep seventies to mid eighties
sixty two and Downtown La sixty to one. Nataheim Joel's
got the entertainment headlines coming.

Speaker 5 (01:01:11):
Up Sidefeld star Julia Louis Dreypis has something to say
to people who are still dressing like Elaine. I'll tell
you what she said. Coming up at eight fifty.

Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
There's a like company wide holiday party today for iHeart
here starts like eleven thirty John eleven o'clock, eleven o'clock. Really,
John's hosting it. John's a solid guy. Then he's got
Knotsberry Farm tonight. Everything that we're doing with you. It's
a big deal though, so company holiday parties. And this
is for all the radio stations, all the people behind
the scenes here at iHeart Los Angeles, and we know

(01:01:42):
now from John there's an open bar.

Speaker 6 (01:01:46):
Yeah, they pretty much do that every year, and I
thought they would take it away at some point, but
we've just been informed yet again we have an open bot.

Speaker 1 (01:01:53):
Wow, okay, And I understand that currently we know of
some people up and down the hall that are pregaming
for this as well, which seems kind of like a
bad idea, but there it is so anonymous. You work
in h R. What are some of the things that
you've had to deal with? Go ahead?

Speaker 12 (01:02:11):
Well, I worked at this company for over ten years
and it's a really small company. Everyone gets along really well.
But one year we have the holiday party at a
bar that the owner has part ownership, and so it
is open bar as well, right, And one year a
ployee came in and very obvious. He had already been drinking,

(01:02:32):
and we tried to get him some food, but it
didn't work out and he just got you know, more intoxicated,
falling off the bar stools, things like that. But the
icing on the cake was he tried to kiss the
owner's wife at the party.

Speaker 5 (01:02:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (01:02:48):
No, of all of all the women and the party,
he had to choose the owner's wife, right, A big deal, Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:02:57):
A big deal.

Speaker 12 (01:02:58):
And he was immediately terminated the next day of course.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Oh my gosh. And then that poor guy not poor guy.
But the next day is like, wait, what did I do?
You tried to kiss the owner's right and did you
have to terminate him? Were you the one that pulled
him aside?

Speaker 12 (01:03:13):
Luckily I was not. I was the second in command
at that time, so my boss did it, and so
I didn't have to do that. But I'm not sure
he even remembered.

Speaker 1 (01:03:23):
Right right, Oh man, crazy holiday port is gotta be careful.
You can't be drinking too much because you're interacting with
you know, bosses and higher ups and stuff like that.
So you want to put on a good face, still
have your holiday cheer and everything, but be cognizant of
that and don't pregame for those people like this guy
and for those up and down the haliday heart you know,

(01:03:44):
thanks Anonymous, appreciate you calling it a great holiday, says okay,
you too. Okay, but bye? But hi Vanessa, Hi, you
work in HR.

Speaker 9 (01:03:57):
No, I'm a chaperone at the time of the story.

Speaker 1 (01:04:01):
Wait a minute, what is it. What do you mean
by chaperone? Is that another word for something else?

Speaker 9 (01:04:06):
Well, basically, at our company, they would drive us up
to Las Vegas on buses. We would, Yeah, so everybody
would get on these buses and there are five or
six buses and everybody was assigned a bus. So I
and my twin sister at the time were assigned to
a bus and we basically just made sure that everybody

(01:04:26):
was you know, good and uh on our When we
got back, unfortunately, about five people we were dismissed because
on one of the buses, when the chaperone was dismissed
because I have to say, we we would set up
jello shots and wait a.

Speaker 1 (01:04:45):
Minute, your chaperone, and on the bus to Vegas for
the company Christmas party.

Speaker 9 (01:04:52):
As a chaperone, we were allowed to you know, to
make jello shots and just allow people to have a
blast on the buses on our way to Vegas. But unfortunately,
one of the buses they also had drinks and they also,
you know, they partied a little too hot. Let's hit it. Yeah,
but it was really, really bad.

Speaker 1 (01:05:09):
Don't say it again, she said a word of what
happened on the bus. Okay, yeah, gotcha, Yeah, but it
was it was bad.

Speaker 9 (01:05:17):
So a lot of people were dismissed when we got there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
Sure, yeah, yeah, but I will say this, and you
know I used to be a police officer, right, Oh, okay,
citizens of rest. No, I was a police officer in
the state of Connecticut for a number of years. Some
people know that, some don't. Then radio just kind of
took off for a career, right. And Jill's dads are
retired D three homicide detective. So his vast experience absolutely

(01:05:40):
dwarfs my experience from me an officer in Connecticut. Mine
is a much more chill job. Dave had to really
see stuff I might be leaning towards entrapment with you,
you know, the jello shots and stuff like that, setting
things up and you're on a bus running all then no.

Speaker 9 (01:05:59):
Seriously, but ended very quickly after that trip, No more Vegas.
Everybody had to either you know, you know, book a
flight or what have you. But that ended right after
that because there was a big liability.

Speaker 1 (01:06:11):
Yeah you don't want that responsibility. Yeah, you got them
on the bus. It's fine stuff and you're doing that
so safe driving of course, no drug driving, which we love,
but all the other stuff and then people's spouses probably
finding out about some of those things.

Speaker 4 (01:06:22):

ABC Company. I'm not gonna save.

Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
ABC like just a joke. ABC Network. Guess it's true.
I'm not good at one. It's one of four three

(01:07:15):
mile fam It's valence of that morning. We had to
during the last conversation and this is surprising to me,
we had to hit the dump button the Calting radio
because the word was said on the air, which can't
be said on the air. And I saw the faces
around the room kind of confusing what the word was.
You've never heard that word before? Never, you've never heard
that word. No, okay, you've never heard it either. Philippians

(01:07:38):
a tube. Yeah, and you have two of them, right,
I think you do.

Speaker 5 (01:07:45):
I've never heard that word though, you.

Speaker 1 (01:07:48):
Never heard that word? And Brian, you know it right?

Speaker 4 (01:07:50):
I know it?

Speaker 3 (01:07:51):
Well?

Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
Did you know it? Well? Oh god, I don't care
for the way I how okay?

Speaker 5 (01:07:57):
Like is it a sexy word?

Speaker 3 (01:07:58):
Like?

Speaker 5 (01:07:58):
Could I say to my husband you should really?

Speaker 1 (01:08:01):
Yes? Could she?

Speaker 5 (01:08:06):
Uh? What what does it mean though, just.

Speaker 1 (01:08:10):
Big so they were doing on the bus, was doing
on the bus?

Speaker 5 (01:08:18):
Oh oh gosh. I was wondering, like what the people
on the bus were doing who weren't participating in that.

Speaker 1 (01:08:25):
I feel like you can hide that stuff, yeah, Like
are they in.

Speaker 6 (01:08:27):
The back, Like the back of the bus is where
stuff happens to be honest, that's the minu business section.

Speaker 1 (01:08:35):
If you're in the back seat of a bus, you're
in the zone. You're in that area. Like even in
high school on band trips, I didn't go back there
because I was a timid young man. I didn't have
a girlfriend. I kissed one girl once in high school.
My first kiss was in high school. Never had a girlfriend.

Speaker 4 (01:08:51):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:08:52):
I was a very very late bloomer and that was okay,
and I'm okay with that and that was just me
and my morality and like the recipe. But that back
of the bus stuff happened back there.

Speaker 5 (01:09:02):
We had an eighth grade trip to Tijuana with my
Bible class. Yeah yeah, And on the drive back, stuff
was going on to the back of the bus and
I went up and I sat with the bus driver
because I.

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
Was like, I got so far you had to go
to the bus driver, not even the front row. You
sat on the bus driver's lap, right but no.

Speaker 5 (01:09:23):
No, I sat right behind the driver. And the whole
time contemplated do I say something to him? Because I
could not believe what was going on in.

Speaker 1 (01:09:30):
The back of the bus. What was going on the
back of the bus.

Speaker 5 (01:09:33):
It was like looking, you say that word because that's
the word. Of course, of course, one O four three,
my FM, here's what's coming up in entertainment headlines. AI
powered scams are hijacking the identity is a big artist

(01:09:54):
to steal money from fans. I'll tell you who they're
impersonating right off traffic one O four.

Speaker 2 (01:09:59):
To three s entertainment headlines.

Speaker 5 (01:10:02):
AI powered scams are taking the identities of major artists
to steal money from fans or saying TikTok. Instagram and
x are considered quote high risk entry points for fraud
and brand damage and AI is really making it harder
to spot the scams, which make the scam so much
more effective. And they said the top five most impersonated

(01:10:23):
artists are adele Bts, Billie Eilish coming in at number three,
Sabrina Carpenter, and then Taylor Swift is number one, and
they said the scams took five point three billion dollars
from fans this year alone. So just know if you
get a message from Billie Eilish saying that she needs
some money, it is not Billie Eilish. And Seinfeld star

(01:10:44):
Julia Louis Dreyfus, she is begging people not to wear
the nineties looks that you see on Seinfeld, like oversized
blazers and floral dresses. She played a lane on Seinfeld
and Julia Louis Dreyfus was on Amy Poehler's podcast and
she just said, I don't know what to say. I'm
just so sorry, I really really am. If anybody in
America is listening to this, please don't do the nineties again.

(01:11:07):
I love an oversized blazer. I just recently watched all
of Seinfeld and for the first time ever, and I
loved Elaine's look. Really, I'm gonna bring the nineties back.
And I'm so sorry.

Speaker 1 (01:11:19):
Did Julie Lee Drivius oversized? You're into that? I love
oversized My wife's outfits the past two days. Oh yeah,
she had a really really big puffy jacket last night
and I thought she looked like Cartman. That didn't go
over well. Oh and she also had like a Christmas
party with some friends or something, and she wore like
these oversized pants or something like they were super flaring

(01:11:42):
at the bottom. Yeah, like oh wow, yeah, but these
were wicked flaring and they were rubbing together. I thought
she was wearing ski pants.

Speaker 5 (01:11:50):
Oh yeah, that's that's it.

Speaker 1 (01:11:52):
That's it right now. It wasn't that bad. But she
took her heels off and she walked in and all
I heard is, yeah, I was my fault because I go,
