First caller with the right answer getsit. This whole weekend, you just

(13:22):
go and lose yourself. It's apair. We've learned a lot about men
so far this morning, Harry.Men make better husbands. There's something about
having a lot of hair on one'sbody that makes that person funnier, smarter,
and more confident. I wonder ifit's a primitive thing, right,
maybe going back to caveman days.Yeah, maybe. And if you are

(13:43):
a hairy man but you wax orshave it all off, I think you
still have the hairy sensibility because youwere born that way and we love you
however you look or are hairy ornot. But question has to do about
men. Men talk about this tentimes a day. What do you think
that is? I think this one'skind of easy, but tell us what

(14:05):
you think it is. Men talkabout this ten times a day. Eight

about what ten times a day?Sports statistics. That's such a good guess.

Everyone's saying sports stats. I thinkI figured out why we do it
too. Yeah. Why It goesback to when we were children we had
baseball cards, we would collect cards, we would watch Sports Center, we
would know that, Oh my gosh, Dave Winfield just hit his forty seventh
home run and he's got one hundredRBIs And that's how we're wired as boys.

Fred Freeman, Freddie Freeman. Lookyou bet you're Freddie. It's going

(18:14):
to be a great, great timetonight in the Ravine and seasonal valley fever
fungus, typically common across the southwesternregion of our state, is spreading further
north than it usually does. Manybelieve that climate change is to blame.
According to a doctor's valley fever,scientifically known as copy delumycosis, is contracted
by breathing in bungal spores that's spreadthrough dust particles in the air after extreme

(18:36):
repetitive periods of rain and droughts.So in the valley we have one of
the highest levels of valley fever casesgoing on right now. Of course,
as the sun comes up and burnsup all the fungus. Everyone's going to
be okay. There haven't been anyhospitalizations yet. Hey, Smucker's leaders aren't
worried about their sparsely populated Ohio campus. The company, whose brands range from
Jiff peanut butter to Folger's Coffee andPopperoni Doctory, has adopted a return to

(19:00):
office strategy that is super unusual amongUS companies. Smucker expects it's roughly one
thousand workers to be on site asa little six days a month or twenty
five percent of the time, dependingon their roles. They just want everyone
to come in during their core weeks, which have I've been identified. Many
employees can leave anyway they want theUS as long as they make it to
the campus for those six days amonth. Can you imagine working seventy two

(19:25):
days a year and we do havea hot, scorching day today. Heat

get away from the camp and dosome stuff. So there's this place
called Hayman's Tree Historic Spot and it'sa little town, cool California. And
this is where they actually have likea noose on their football helmets on the
high school because they used to hanghang people sheet there like years ago in

(20:14):
the in the wild wild West.Yeah, so there's a bar and it's
called Hangman's Noose Historic Spot and it'slike a little hole in the wall.
It's a little brick brick place.And so he wanted to take his friends
to somewhere historic because they're kind ofexploring. And they went there and everyone
loved it. They had a goodtime. I mean, it's it's a

(20:34):
dark got to be haunted, right, yeah, it has to be right.
Yeah. Oh, anyway, we'llhang town. That's right here in
our state. So much history.Yeah, let's get to you, Calvin.
So you have a grown son,it's twenty tell us all about him.
What's up, good looking kids?He's involved with this girl who I

(21:00):
don't think she's for him, honestly. I mean, he's a go getter.
He gets stuff done. He's apresident of his class. He's on
a football team, he's on thetrack team. He's a go getter.
He's out doing that. She islike wallpaper. I mean, just there.
You know what I'm saying. Imean, excuse me. Is she

(21:22):
possibly shy because you are? Youare the dad? I don't think so.
I mean, I'm not intimidating anybodyyou meet me. I'm a pretty
nice guy. The thing is,I mean people ask me, do you
think she's the one for him?And I'm like, God, I hope
not. She has zero personality.Oh no, keep up a conversation and

(21:45):
it's just plain. I mean,they just don't match up, you hear
me. Okay, Well, here'sthe good news and the bad news.
The good news is your son isin love. Right. I'm not sure
he even knows what love is.I mean, he's he thinks he is,
okay, But I mean I wantthe best for him. That's the

(22:06):
only thing here. We took thisgirl to dinner with us, was with
our family. We're all sitting aroundtalking the whole time. All she did
was pretty much staring into her plate, try to involve her. We spoke
to her directly. I mean itwas like pulling teeth out of a painting.
It was all like, goodness,Calvin, Well, I bet she

(22:27):
is wonderful, and I bet shetreats your son so well. So I
think we need to give this time. They're both so young. That's the
thing. Think back to your twentyyear old self, and then think of
everything and everyone you've met since then. And although it may seem serious and
permanent now, it might not be. And if it is, maybe she'll
feel more comfortable around the family.But I bet that she is really sweet

(22:49):
to your son, Calvin, andthat you know, hopefully he's met someone
amazing as he is. You're beingvery nice about that. I literally I
look back and I had one thatI know now in hindsight, my parents
just thought and they didn't say anythingduring but man, she was a dud
and I see it now. Atthe time, I just got she had

(23:12):
nothing going on. But look whatyour parents did. They let you make
your own decision. Yeah, no, for sure, you're right, and
so in hindsight, hindsight's everything.But at the time you were able to
just be an adult about it.Yeah. I feel like if I was
such a brat back then when Iwas younger, if they told me something,
I would purposefully exactly that. Thatcould also be a play. Yeah,

(23:33):

How many nights I've laid awake,praying that God let me live long enough
to learn what happened to you,son, Jimmy mother Maria. His journey
to find the birth family he neverknew began and when he read news stories

(25:33):
about Chilean born adoptees who had beenreunited with their birth relatives with the help
of a Chilean nonprophet. It's callednospuskamo, so it's we seek right,
So he knew he was born inChile. He knew that he'd been adopted,
so he thought, you know whatI'm gonna do it. I'm gonna
find out where is my mother.I'm gonna find my mama. At the

(25:55):
age of forty two, he founderand they were just reunited. He had
been born prematurely placed in an incubator. Maria was told to leave the hospital.
When she came back for her baby, they said he has died,
but he was very much alive andthen adopted out. And wow, what
a reunion. How do you hugsomeone in a way that makes up for

(26:18):
forty two years? Hucks, fortytwo years robbed. Let still look from
us all crashing into this moment.Two years but not forty three. Nope,

never will. The Ellen k MorningShow on Coast one oh three point five

or a year or not at all. That's just how it was. I
think she had met so many thatI'm not kidding you. How long did

(30:11):
it take, then, Ellen foryou to sort of I don't want to
use the word wear her down,but I wore her down. Took me
probably two years to wear her down. It was I'll tell you. When
I knew I had hers, sheinvited me to Lynch, just the two
of us. She took me toa Magnolia cafe and she drove us and
she showed me some of the sitesof New Orleans where she lived. And

(30:33):
so I'm like, okay, Igot the mind, but it took a
long time. That's why I'm wonderingwhen Calvin the daddy called us earlier this
morning, if he's feeling threatened byanother person in his son's life. You
know, it's a bond that nowhas to make room for someone else.
And I know with my own sonCalvin, he's had girlfriends and he hasn't

(30:53):
had a you know, super seriousone. Girls have come over, but
I know that I always feel like, oh, they're just so you know,
he's twenty one. I'm like,oh they're so young, you're too
young. I always write it offlike that, I really do. So
I kind of see what Calvin saying. He's trying to find something not to
like. I don't do that.I find them adorable. But he's trying

(31:14):
to find something like because he doesn'twant his father's son bond broken up.
That's what I think. I don'tknow anyway, Ingrid, thank you for
calling. You have advice, Well, I would advice for him to kind
of get to know her more andpossibly get her to talk and you know,
kind of have a communication where theycan you know, find out what's
really going on. I mean Ican relate to that. I have a

(31:37):
son that on the other hand,if he's a shy one, but once
you get to know him, hecan be a chatterbox. But not until
you really get to know that person, you really can judge. Maybe she
is very shy and you know it'shard to get someone to talk. Yeah,
if she's staring at her plate thewhole dinner, I would think that
maybe it's even one of those thingswhere it could be an anxiety issue just
around people, right. Yeah,and my son has that, so I

(32:00):
really understand where you know she's comingfrom. But also the dad needs to
probably kind of find out a littlemore if she does have anxiety, maybe
that could kind of be turning herdown to talk. But you know,
especially nowadays, teenagers, you know, younger ones, they have a really
difficult time having any kind of communicationwhen they're surrounded by other people. And

(32:22):
hopefully he will just kind of backit up for a little while and let
his son figure it out. Yes, absolutely, let the sun figure it
out. He gave them their space. Absolutely. Thank you so much.
Thanks Ingrid, have a great day. Thank you. Likewise, Allan,
thank you. It's a big thingwhen you invite someone else into the family
fold. I love this. Isaw this wedding on Instagram and this dad

(32:44):
was giving away his daughter and shedidn't know how to throw a baseball or
a softball, so all he didwas throw the ball. Throw the ball.
That's what they did. Because shewas his only daughter. He didn't
have any son, so they threwthe ball. She made the team,
she won all kinds of awards,and then she's getting married. They're at
the wedding. The dad stands upand said, since the time you were
thirteen, what did we do?We threw the ball. So we pulled

(33:07):
out the mit and the ball,and they threw the ball at the wedding
and then he gave the mit tothe to the husband to be and said,
