he's doing all the right stuff.He's doing all the long time. Yeah,
and he knows. He's just impatientbecause the numbers on the scale aren't
moving. I'm like, come on, man, it's leaving a few weeks.
My trainer used to say the scaleis a lie because you know you're
building muscle, and so like,it's really about what his body fat is.
And he'll know he'll feel it oncehe starts really dropping little squeezers like
(01:49):
the body. The pictures CalPERS iswhat they're called. You want to make
me vomit, start squeezing my bellyand stuff. That's I mean, see
where you're at. That's what he'stalking about. Measuring the fat now he's
uh, he's yeah, he's doingall the right things. He's just impatient.

cute. Yeah, that's cute.How come we not riding with him?
No, he's using his bike becauseI have the car. Oh. I
see he's getting to the gym.Yo like it. I'm trying to plan
a little mini getaway vacation now thatwe have the first week of the year
cleared out, and trying to rallyother families is damn near impossible. What
(02:38):
other families just our crew. Thisis our crew that we rolled with during
the pandemic, and so we alllike like to vacation together because you know,
we all have kids, and thekids like to hang out together.
And when the kids are heading tobe in charge, somebody else adult charge
organizing that. And so I gotthis house in the Mesa, Phoenix Scottsdale
area with a pool that I wantedat a charity auction, And I'm like,
(03:01):
you, guys, here are thedates? Just come out? And
man, trying to rally everybody islike, but you have it booked.
Well, I have the house booked. But everybody's got it now. They
now that we have our vacation datesset, they have to all arrange their
lives to get on the plane.You're good, don't worry about them.
You just book your stuff, beexcited about it. And if they can
(03:23):
get theirs together and show up,then good for them. They can't,
then I will. But if nobodyelse shows up, then my daughter will
have no one to play with ofher age. And so that what are
you thinking. No one's going toshow up. I don't know. I
don't know if they are. Welldid you ask? Yeah, one person,
so I got a check. Somebodystarting a new job. Well,
(03:45):
it'll work out. It'll work itselfout. Everybody's excited about it. It's
just trying to move the pieces.The Jason's going through this right now because
he's trying to get his whole familyto Hawaii. We might not even be
going to Hawaii anymore because with theextended family. There's a certain amount of
peace people that you can wrangle.I feel like six is the limit.
Like we went some friends and Iall went to Vegas. It was three
(04:06):
couples, and it was the perfectnumber because if you wanted to hang out
with everybody, you could. Ifyou want to do your own thing,
you could. Everybody kind of gotup when they wanted. There was no
like, all right, everybody,here's your oinerary. But once you get
past six, starts getting a littlenutty. And it's not even about itineraries.
It's just about getting everybody there,right Jason, Yeah, totally,
(04:26):
No, we might. Our suggestionfrom the beginning is like, look,
if you guys just want to havesomewhere to go and chill, Phoenix literally
is gonna be a lot cheaper becausewe got an estimate for the Hawaii get
away, Like, uh, Idon't want to pay that, So I'm
just like, dude, Palm Springs, let's do something you want to do
that way cheaper. Yeah, butI'd be getting families and friends together so
(04:49):
hard. The per family I'll sayit, based on the per family cost
for the three night getaway in thisbeautiful house is going to be. Oh,
that's for the whole same. That'slike, that's what one hundred and
fifty at night or something. Wewere looking to go into Tahoe for Christmas
and we can't. It's just it'sjust too expensive. Anyway, How are
(05:14):
you, Jason, What do yougot going on with good? I didn't.
I actually didn't get a lot ofsleep either, because I was just
like losing myself in the Christmas spirit. There was more Amazon what does that
mean? Showed up yesterday Kid's Presence, so like after the kids went to
bed, I was wrapping those andthen wow, you're rapping already. Yeah.

going to get around till it toit till the end of the week.
Marcus. I take my foot offthe gas as soon as my wife and
daughter are handled. And that's theproblem. I don't think about anybody else.
Do you have to shop for well, you know, I want to
(05:55):
send something to my mom. Ineed to send something to my niece and
nephew. It's easy. The immediatefamily like my wife and kids is easy
for me. The tough thing mywife left a couple of our Christmas cards
on my dresser and I was like, am I supposed to do something with
this? She's like, yeah,like who your people? Like you know,
your parents or whatever? And Iwas like, oh, I can't
(06:16):
deal with this right, Like it'saddressing an envelope, but like the weight
of just the extended family that's outthere, I can't deal with it.
I forgot about all those people.I'm gonna It's hard though, because like
my mother in law yesterday, Iwas like, what's on your Christmas list?
I don't know. I don't wantto just get unnecessary stuff. Yeah,
you know, I just I justdon't want you don't waste your money
(06:38):

be you gotta think like that,like what's the stuff that I What do
you need for your house? Yeah? What do I need? Like how
I was talking about yesterday, Ineed a leaf blower and get in that
mindset because there's gotta be stuff.We have so much stuff because we downsized.
Even send a list to my mom. She does a thing that we
just I love her to death.But you could send her a list in
(07:00):
in December and then you'll get itin June. What. Yeah, that's
how we should get you for Christmas. She just shoot, it's coming and
then it shows up. Even mydaughter's like, so it'll get here in
the summer. Oh my god.So that's just how our family is.
Every family's a little quirky. We'regoing to talk about that in a little
bit. Yeah, all right,six eleven. Don't forget to keep the
radio on because we have more ticketsfor circ to So lay at eight oh
(07:21):
five this morning with the trivia game. All right, that's coming up.
It's Star one one three, morevariety from the two thousands, the nineties,
and today it's Star one O onethree. It's Marcus and Corey.
It's six twenty one. Good morning. I heard this stat and about fell
out of my chair. What's up? What we're talking about? How much
a good date should cost? Yes, yeah, no, kidd right,
I know we're in the Bay Area, but still so singles say a good
(07:48):
date should cost about one hundred andninety six dollars, so basically two hundred
bucks, but one in eight thinka good date should cost at least three
hundred Who are you dating? Why? How are you putting a number on
it? My husband took me toNoodles in company for our first dates.
The restaurant, you order it,the counter, they bring you your food.
(08:11):
You got to tell everybody why hedid that though, because he was
testing me to see if I washigh maintenance, to see if I would
be disappointed where he took me,and I was like, I knew what
you're doing. Nice try it worked. H Yeah, we're married. He
who locked you down? Hey,I like noodles. He was the one
who was crazy. I like noodles. But two hundred dollars? Are we
talking a first date like you're tryingto impress somebody? Hi? It sounds
(08:37):
like that if you say it's single. Sa I stacked the deck. Though.
You have to understand when I andwhen my wife and I started dating,
it was the second time we'd kindof met each other, and I
had it in my head that Iwas not going to let her go this
time, Like this was my lady, This is happening. I will pull
out all the stops. I alreadyknew what she was about. I already
knew she was awesome. But youset the bar that high on the first
(09:00):
I know, and it has notNo, it has not lowered since.
So we we did sushi and thenI went out. I can't believe I'd
admitting this to you. I wentto Macy's that afternoon and bought a new
outfit. Okay, And then sothere's money right there. That's money spent
on her first date. And thenshe texted me and was like, is
(09:22):
it okay if my best friend comeson your dates? Yes? And I
was convinced that she thought I wasgay. I don't know, maybe we're
hanging out. Maybe I wasn't clearthat this was a date you want to
bring your friend. That is abad sign. But I but it was
a miscommunication because we were going toa show that night. We were going
to a place that doesn't exist anymorecalled Slims to see a band called Dashboard
(09:43):
Confessional. And her friend just wantedto go to the show, okay.
But I took it as oh,she wants to come to dinner too,
So I'm like, and I thoughtto myself. If I say no,
then I'm a weirdo because I haven'tcommunicated it's a date. But if I
say yes, now it's just agroup thing and I'm gonna be friend zoned
and it'll be this is my head, this is what's going on my hand.
(10:05):
I feel like you obligated to payfor the friend. I don't.
I think I did, because atthat point then it was just two ladies
that I was entertaining at that point. But the dinner went great. We
went to sushi, which was notcheap, and then we went to the
show and now granted I got ticketsthrough the radio station, which was fine,
so I didn't pay for those.But then afterwards we did pizza,
(10:28):
so we ate twice. Is thefriend still with you? No? She
bailed after so my wife and Imade out at the club, thank god,
and then her friend peeled off andleft, took an uber and left.
Very weird, very nineties, thevery nineties. Was it nineties?
No, it was, dude,it was twenty ten. Really, well,
(10:48):
it's twenty twenty three, bro,I know we think the nineties were
five years ago. So my firstday was very unorthodoxy, Yes, it
was, well, the fact thatI paid for three people. Yes,
it was over three hundred bucks.Over three d bucks for sushi for three
people. Where are you having sushi? Well out of those right across the
street from the venue. It wasdown there eleventh in fulsome I don't know.
(11:11):
I don't remember the name of theplay rock and roll Sushi or someplace
not there anymore. Who cares?That's just a lot, dude. How
much is expensive? We have sushiall the time. It's not that expensive.
How much do you think you payfor two people to have sushi?
We're sidebarring. Now. Let's sayJeff gets two rolls. I get nagiri
and some soup and maybe a roll. Okay, my wife gets fifty bucks
(11:37):
for two no for what I justsaid, or maybe okay, at the
very most, I'll say one hundred. But like even we just did sushi
with Postmates and it wasn't it didn'tbreak a hundred. I guess my wife
likes the most expensive stuff on themenu, as does my daughter. They
like sushimi, which is not cheap. Anybody who eats sushi knows it's not
cheap. So my wife will get, you know, eight pieces of sashimi
(12:01):
my daughter wants eight pieces of sashimi, then my wife wants the tempera role,
and then my daughter wants those avocadorolls. You know that there's never
going to be a man that's goingto be able to satisfy your daughter.
I understand that that's the plan.Okay, So this number three, he's
nine. This is not what we'retalking about. We're talking about. Don't
(12:28):
judge me and what I do,Daddy, I wanted krember lash Stop.
She is not like that. Iwanted eight pieces of Oh whose kid you're
referring to? It's not mine.My kid's awesome. Uh. Here's here's
a funny stent on this though.We're talking about what people think an average
first date should cost. Most peoplethink about one hundred and ninety six bucks.
(12:48):
One in eight think a could dateshould cost over three hundred. My
point was, why is it anumber thing? It shouldn't. It shouldn't
be if it costs this, itshould be did I have fun? Did
I have a quality time? Yeah? Did I have a quality time?
You know, my wife is atthe point where she gets me now and
it's like, let's find let's figureout how much money we can't spend tonight.
See that's fun for me. Well, how much fun can we have
for almost nothing? I mean that'sthe lady actually in the Bay Area.
(13:11):
Yeah, I mean, if youcan find good food for not extremely expensive
prices, that's great. Here's here'sthe funny thing was you would think this
is not to be gender specific,but in your head you're going, oh,
it's got to be the lady.That's that's you know, cost more
or whatever, or wants it tocost more. But the guys. It
says men have higher expectations that theybelieve good dates cost around two hundred and
(13:33):
twenty bucks, while women say agood dates should cost about one hundred and
seventy. Now I wonder if thisis because he's hoping to get a little
luw. I hate that dessert.I hate the fact that dessert is attached
to I hate the mentality of Itook you out for a nice dinner,
therefore you owe me something. Ihate that, I really do. I
don't think people really think like that. Yes they do. One hundred guys
(13:56):
think that way. Well, youapparently don't scroll TikTok and reels enough.
No, I don't, And I'mokay, with that. You should get
dessert on your own merits, notbecause you spent a number. Jeff did
not get dessert on our first date. I did not either, Thank you.
Anyways, all right, how muchshould a good first date cost?
(14:18):
This is a little ridiculous. Nettlesand Company, man, do it?
You get the right lady? Justtake her for nudes olive garden. Yeah,
some endless breadsticks. I'm yours,all right? Six twenty eight.
We're gonna check what's trending in afew what do you have? So the
lottery is once again growing. Powerballis continue to grow. We haven't had
a winner in a while, sothat's getting up there. Also, Mega
Millions is getting up there. Andthe blind Side, that whole story behind
(14:43):
the Blindside movie scandal. It's takinganother ugly turn. Well, variety from
the two thousands, the nineties,and today it's star one O one three
share DJ play a Christmas song withone of my favorite lyrics of the season.
What was it? Red and Green? It's got me feeling just right.
Yep. There's something like, dude, come on, come on,
(15:03):
it's a club banger. It totallyis. Uh. I'm gonna get a
little introspective here small things you shouldbe proud of yourself for. Okay,
I believe this was a Reddit thread, but these are things that we don't
think about, and I think theseare important for people like me. If
you're out there and like you're oneof those people that's always very critical of
(15:24):
yourself, or you don't you don'tyou don't think about your small wins,
or maybe you never feel good enough. These are definitely a little more touchy
feely than I thought, because like, I'm proud of myself when I fold
the laundry. Yeah, yeah,just getting chores done around the house.
I think folding laundry is up.It's in my top five of things I
don't ever want to do. Numberone thing I never want to do I
(15:48):
did yesterday, which is get myteeth cleaned at the dentist or go to
the dentist for any reason. Andmy dentist is a homie and I walked
in there one time, he's like, bro, how you doing. I
go, well, I'm here,so I can't be doing that good.
I just I don't like a lotof people in my mouth. At the
same time. I mean, it'slike I just I get claustrophobic and weird.
Sure, but I've got a greatdentist and and same I love who
(16:10):
teeth cleaning noise. Anyway, we'reoff topic a little bit. Small things
you should be proud of yourself forNumber one on the list, showing up
regardless of how you feel, Youput in your face on, you get
out there, and you do whatyou gotta do. There are some things
you got to show up for.There's a difference, in my opinion,
between showing up for something regardless ofhow you feel because you shouldn't have to
(16:33):
be there and showing up because youfeel some sort of guilt. If you
don't. To me, that's nottaking care of yourself. You didn't want
to tap out because you didn't wantto have the conversation. But there are
things sometimes you just got to strapyour boots on and you got to get
it done. Yes, yes,uh. For some reason, a funeral
comes to mind. Oh I don'tknow why. That's that's that's deep and
(16:57):
dark andology for that. But somethingelse, small things. You should be
proud of yourself for being compassionate andkind to others. Feels very basic to
a lot of people, but compassionand kindness are almost a lost art these
days. Sometimes they never know whatI'm going to be walking into in the
morning, So sometimes I'll just preemptivelytext you before I get there and go,
(17:18):
don't be mean right away because I'mhaving a bad morning. You have
to understand. We talked about ityesterday. Corey and I troll each other
NonStop, yes, so hard allmorning. There are sometimes we have to
stop and go, hey, yeah, you know, it was just funn
and right. You know, Iwas just kidding because it can get a
little nuts. So being compassionate ishuge, right, Looking after yourself and
(17:42):
your body. Self care is veryimportant, very important. Not giving up
even when you really want to.There's nothing better than pushing through and then
looking back and realizing I did that, you know what I mean? Yes,
yeah, many times I wanted totap out while I was taking care
of my dad. Sure, justI can't do it, literally on the
(18:03):
stairs. I can't do this.It's a lot. And pushing through and
then going you know what I gavethat old man, you know, the
the last chapter that he deserved.Yeah, and feeling really I guess pride
is is is a thing, accomplishingthings on your own I like that.
Yeah, it's funny because Jeff alwaysgives me a hard time, and it's
like there was a time when Itook care of myself when you weren't around.
(18:26):
I actually I can take care ofmyself because he's always given me a
hard time. But he goes outof town now over the other week,
so it's like I have I canfunction. They don't have your number one
on here. Small things you shouldbe proud of yourself for cry would like
some kudos for showing up on timefor work two days in a row,
two days in a row. Dude, that's not on here. Dude,
(18:47):
I technically beat you here. How'sthat? Because I was getting out of
my car when you were still pullingin, but I got into the studio
before you, just because you walkedfaster than I do. Everybody does.
Well. You also take the elevator, and the elevator is extremely slow.
Uh, you know what? Ilike this one. Saying no to someone
(19:07):
you know isn't good for you,even though it makes you feel guilty.
I'm gonna couple that with letting goof toxic people in your life. Yes,
I had a friend who's younger thanme, and she said, it
makes her feel sad that her friendcircle is getting smaller. I'm like,
yeah, but your friend circles gettingmore quality, right, You're getting the
toxic out. The older you get, the more quality your friend's circle gets.
Less drama, way less drama.I like that. Let's end right
(19:32):
there. We'll get into some moreof these later on. If you can
think of one, would love tohear from you on the talk back on
the iHeartRadio at that little red microphone. Just think small things that people should
be proud of themselves for. Hitus up. Let us know, showing
up fun time two days in aroad to work impressive. You're on time
and mind time are different, obviously. Yes, six forty four, let's
(19:55):
what's trending coming up next with youguys. Your lottery tickets, not just
Powerball but also Mega millions. Theyare getting high up there. Get into
that and more coming up at sixfifty it's Sarah Brellas, It's Star one
O one three sucked about, It'swhat's Trendean on Star on what's happening in
entertainment news, the biggest stories ofthe day and everything people are talking about
(20:17):
today in the Bay. Trending isbrought to you by Disney's The Lion King,
now on stage at San Francisco's OrpheumTheater through December thirty. It's so
good. Okay, I just sawthis video and I'm gonna ask Jason to
put it online. This is crazybecause I saw a celebrity posted it.
This was in San Mateo. It'svideo of a man stealing a Christmas tree
(20:38):
off somebody else's car. R Oh, I saw that, Yeah, I
saw that yesterday. Was that yesterday? Uh huh? That's in San Mateo.
They literally went into where were they? I don't remember, you know
it was. They weren't a shoppingcenter. They had just gotten their tree
dipped out for ten minutes. You'returd and that is a full blown grnch
who steals a Christmas tree. I'msending crampis your way. That's what you
(21:03):
deserve. Powerball jackpot continues to growafter no grand prize winner in last night's
drawing. That means tomorrow's drawing isgonna be worth at least four hundred and
thirty five million, and tonight's MegaMillions is three hundred and seventy seven million
M that'd come in handy we're onthe holiday season. I tell you what.
So we heard about The blind Side, you know, the movie about
Michael Or, the football player,and earlier this year he's come out and
(21:27):
said they took advantage of him,they took his money. They were the
only ones who made any money offthat movie. Well, yesterday it took
another ugly turn. Sean and Leannetoo, we have accused Michael Or of
extorting them for millions and threatening themif they didn't send him money. Their
attorneys shared screenshots of alleged text messagesby Orr in which he calls them thieves
(21:48):
and demands they send him upwards afifteen million or else he'd go public with
their dispute over the financial earnings fromthe two thousand and nine film. Well,
that's just this whole thing is justawful, because you watch the film,
you're super inspired, and now it'sjust gotten gross. I will be
very interested to see who comes outon top of this, because these allegations
are over the top from both sides, From both sides, it's just it's
(22:12):
gross. And you know how,I feel most sorry for Sandra Bullock.
Sandy Bullock they were talking earlier,should take her offscrew away that has nothing
to do with anything. She'd gotthat oscar for a good acting job.
She Messa with Sandy Mullock. She'sany national treasure. She really is.
If you're a fan of Elf themovie and I am one of the most
memorable scenes when Buddy makes his spaghettibecause it's got some unusual toppings, well

probably gonna sell out, you justneed to go to the website Hellofreshelfspaghetti Dot
(23:19):
com thank you. I think Ijust got diabetes doing this. Where to
begin? Hey, I heard thatthe wag Brigade at SFO is celebrating its
tenth anniversary. What is the wagBrigade, you ask? I love this?
Thank you. These are therapy animalsthat they have at SFO. So
(23:41):
should I've known about this before whenI was traveling all the time. This
was launched. It at SFO tenyears ago. It was between the SPCA
and then an organization called the AnimalAssisted Therapy the AAT, and they just
roam the terminals. I love it. I never saw them. I wish

(24:27):
I mean, you know who doesn'tneed to cuddle so congratulations going out the
wagrigate at SFO. I love thatreminder. There is a strike sit to
happen at SF State today. I'venever heard of a rolling strike. The
CSU system is doing a yeah,rolling strike, so they're doing different strikes
at different schools around the state.What I know about what's going on is
(24:52):
that there was a stalin labor negotiations. The unions are asking for a twelve
percent raise in twenty twenty three.CSU instead of is opposing a fifteen percent
salary bump over the next three years. What I found interesting was both sides
have had what they're calling a neutralinvestigator as a fact finder in order to
mediate the terms of whatever they wantfor their deal. So we'll keep you
(25:15):
posting on that, but it shouldbe affecting SF State today. So shout
out to all of our people thateither go to school there or work there.
Stopping education sucks. I hope,I hope everybody gets an amicable deal.
I can't say gets what they wants, because gets what they want,
but that's not gonna happen. ButI hope we get an amicable deal as
soon as humanly possible. They justreleased the list of the best pizzas out

Both of those definitely worth checking out. Jess what's trending every weekday Morning
(25:59):
on the fifties. That's at sixfifty seven fifty AM. And connect now
with the Marcus and Corey socials andblogs. That's at one O one three
dot com. A variety from thetwo thousands, the nineties, and today
it's Star one on one three.It's Marcus and Corey back again with second
Date Update. You know what timeit is. We like to help you
get yourself a second date. That'swhat we call it second date Update.
(26:22):
You go on a first date andmaybe you haven't heard from them. We
tried to figure out why Gigi's onthe phone high Gigi, Hey, what's
up? How are you? I'mgood? How are you guys doing it
good? Tell us about Steve.It looks like you guys been on Bumble,
So let's start there. That's wherethe ladies in charge. Yep,
that's what's up. Yes, SoI messaged him on Bumble because he looked
(26:45):
really cuteness pictures and you know,it doesn't happen a lot, but he
was actually really fun to talk toand he was like into reading and art
and traveling, just kind of likea well rounded fun person, which I
feel like doesn't happened in online datinga lot. Right, And then we
agreed to meet up, and Ipicked a restaurant that my friends had recommended,
(27:07):
a super cute Italian place, andI didn't end up making a reservation
because whatever, I didn't think itwould be a big way. But sure
we got there and we were hangingout. We were talking at the bar
and we had a couple of drinksand I felt like it went really well.
The conversation was as good as itwas over messages, and I just
felt like I could really open upto him. He was super easy to
(27:29):
talk to. I maybe talked alittle too much, but it just was
exciting to have someone who was agood listener, and I thought the rest
of the night followed from there.I had a great time, and then
I just never heard from him again, And not to bring up old stuff,
but how often does it happen wherelike, in text they're amazing and
then in person they're a complete toadexactly from a personality standpoint, right,
(27:52):
you'd helpe not that they're super cleverin their text, and you would think,
but I don't know. I mean, do you you're the one dating?
What's the percentage of guys that cancarry over like he did? I
mean very rare. I think messagingwell in general is like a lost art.
I don't know what it needs tobe taught in school. Sure,
(28:14):
well you can chat GPT it two. Oh do you could be to somebody
completely different? Yeah? So whathappened? Did he is he ghosted?
Is he gone? Yeah? Imean I texted him and he kind of
has like blown me off a fewtimes. And I don't want to be
desperate, but I'm also like,and I just understand what happened. I
thought we had a great time orI had a great time. Well,
(28:34):
I mean it's what we do.Let's call him. Hang on the line,
take a deep breath. We're goingto play a song and then we'll
hit Steve up and see what hethought of the date. Okay, all
right, we'll do whatever this.It's it's Second Date Update Star one on
one three variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today it's Star
one O one three. It's Marcusand Corey and we're doing Second Date Update.
(28:55):
We've been talking to Gigi. Let'stalk about this guy Steve for a
sec. So the big headline onSteve Gg, if I if I'm not
mistaken, is that he was justas awesome in person as he was on
text and messaging. Is that accurate? Yeah? I thought so. Okay,
so you said you didn't make reservations. How long was the wait for
(29:15):
your table? No? Wait,I mean it was like a happening place,
so it ended up being like maybea forty five minute wait. Right.
I feel like if there's a cutebar and you can hang out and
talk there, it's like, yeah, you know, it's not a big
deal. It's part of the experience, and if he likes the person you're
with, then there's there's no bigdeal there. Yeah, all right,
well exactly, you're like, we'realready together. Right, let's call him,
(29:37):
So go ahead and mute your phone. Let's give him a shado.
Okay, well Steve, Hi,Steve, It's Marcus and Corey at Star
one oh one three. Hey Steve, it is hey wow. He actually
(30:00):
I was happy to hear a familiarvoice, so I'm happy to hear from
you guys. Yeah, yeah,this is this is great. Okay,
what are we doing? Well?Check your watch, check your phone.
Do you know a second date update? Yeah? I do. I
love second date up date. Idid not think I would ever be on
(30:21):
it. What if you were wouldthat still right now? I mean I
never thought of the side of it. I hope it's still fun. But
that means have you been on adate recently? Have you been in a
date recently? He just said,so, you know here, Hi,
(30:45):
So we're all here, Steve lovedthe date with you. Then she's feeling
like you're kind of way cooled off. So it's something happened on date.
You've been busy. Would love toscore her a second day, hundred percent
transparency. Where are we at?I mean I had, I had,
you know, high hopes going in. I liked her from profiles, you
(31:07):
know, I liked when we firstmet, like she's super attractive, like
the it was like easy to talkto her. It was a great start.
We were at Where's this restaurant thatwas kind of like, it's not
ideal, like I probably would haveliked to have had reservations with kind of
a long later's restaurant, and sowe're sitting at a bar, and I
guess the main thing I remember wasjust how quickly she got into her pino
(31:30):
grease man she got. She'd alreadydown two and she was she'd ordered her
third before I'd finished my first one. And I know people get nervous,
you know, on a date,but it was just it was real fast,
and like I felt like we weretalking great at the beginning, but
like after a few wines, thewheels came off the bus and it was
(31:52):
an out of control bus, andI just basically had to watch it for
the rest of the night. Idon't think I got a word in after
fifteen minutes. For the rest ofthe night. I just had to watch
the whole thing happened. And Iand like, I like, you seem
great, Gugi, but at thatpoint it's just like this not for me,
and I was just kind of waitinguntil I could get out of there.
So Gigi, Yeah, back toyou WHOA. I don't know.
(32:13):
I felt like it was a Fridaynight. I had just gotten off of
work and was ready to like letloose a little bit, and I was
having a good time, so Ithought we were like matched in what was
happening. I don't think I wasmessy at all. I just think that's
what meeting a new person. AndI don't know, I didn't think it
(32:35):
was that big of a deal.You know, I had a conversation.
I feel like the conversation was justlike it was all it was. It
was just the Gigi show that Iwas getting to watch. It was not
like I was actually part of thisdate at all. And I feel like
a lot of people in the restaurantalso got to watch it. It was
very loud. That makes me reallyembarrassed. So yeah, it was kind
of a tough. It was atough one for me. You seem very
nice before and again now, somaybe there is a a perfect date for
(33:01):
you that would go that same wayand everybody would have a great time,
But this one was very one sidedand not for me. Okay, point
take, And I did not realizethat you were so uptight, So I
guess I'm gonna pass too, allright, hang on, hang on,
Yeah, that's not a match.They were not for each other. All
right, let's move on. SecondDate update seven oh five Weekday Mornings replaces
(33:23):
it nine oh five, as youknow. And then we have the podcast.
Of course, on the iHeartRadio app, you can go binge listen more
variety from the two thousands, thenineties, and today star one oh one
three. It's Marcus and Corey sevento twenty one. And now for an
interesting twist on holiday travel, Coreyhas a question. So I was watching
a movie last night, and Iguess you can call it a Christmas movie.
(33:45):
It was Crampus, and I reallyenjoyed it. It's just the one
thing I thought was so interesting isas this one family is preparing for her
sister's family to join them, they'reall miserable. Why are they misiting it?
They're already counting down to when they'releaving, because why is she cousins
are bullies? The sisters they're very, very different, Like she makes fun
(34:07):
of the food because she's got likea toddler, kind of a slash baby,
very young, and she's like,oh don't you love how your aunt
makes all this food you can't pronounce, you know, And then she goes
in the kitchen and back, andyou've got a foodie on one end,
and then you've got a lady tryingto navigate a toddler on the other end,
and nobody's needs your being met.Cousins don't get along. Cousins don't
(34:27):
get along. They're just I mean, they're already counting down to when they
leave. They haven't even gotten thereyet, and they're already ready for them
to go. And I think Isaid to my husband three separate times,
why are you spending the holidays together? You don't It's obviously you don't like
each other. Is that inherently thequestion? Why do families that don't like
each other get together? Yes?Is that the question? Yes? Because
I mean there's a couple movies likethis, like Four Christmases or Reese Witherspoon.
(34:51):
They go to the tropics every year, and one year they can't go.
The flights are canceled, so theyend up having to do four different
Christmases with people they don't like.So in instead of going to see family,
they go to the tropics. Exceptthis one year they couldn't do it
right, flight was canceled. Yeah, and the families found out because they
were on the news, So thenthey were obligated to go to their family's
(35:12):
houses. Are they obligated though,that's my question. It's like, if
you really don't enjoy your time withthese people, why would you spend one
of the most magical times of theyear with them. So I can only
give you my perspective. I enjoymy family. It's just it's hard to
get to my mother's house. Ifshe had her way, we would probably
(35:32):
be at her house twice a year. But to get there, it's literally
planes, trains and amobiles. Shelives about twenty five miles south of the
Canadian border, little town called Bellingham. Beautiful place. But to get there,
you gotta fly into Seattle. Yougotta brave Seattle traffic, you gotta
rent a vehicle, you gotta drivetwo more hours. Sometimes it's snowing,
(35:52):
sometimes it isn't. You're also travelingduring the holidays, traveling during the holidays.
And then, inasmuch as we wouldlove to stay at grandma's house,
it's it's not conducive to visit her. She has guest rooms that doubles her
and her husband's offices and they arealways piled with stuff, and so in
order for her to be ready forus, it would put her through a
(36:13):
lot of work to clean this upand move this and do this. And
then the beds are twins, solike my wife and my daughter sleep in
one, and then I end upon the couch. That's the thing.
That's not what I mean like comfortwise. The last time I would to
visit my dad, which is alsonot an easy travel because we're going across
the country. Last time we moved, we stayed in a hotel and it
was way better because he likes tokeep the temperature high, right, and
(36:37):
Jeff and I run hot right,And uh yeah, it's just like my
sister caught onto this years ago.She and her husband always stay at a
hotel because that way, you're notyou don't have to get up on anyone's
schedule, you're not in anybody's way. You've got your own bed. I
sent that president years ago, andat first my mom was offended because she
(36:58):
wants everybody at grandma's house. Nowmy in laws would be sad with them.
And it's not that you don't likethem, No, it's just not
it's not comfortable. Do I likebeing there first thing in the morning,
Mom's cooking and music's playing in Christmastree. I love it, but it's
but it's not comfortable. No,no, there's They're not in this house
(37:22):
anymore. But when I first wasdating Jeff Would, we didn't sleep in
the same bed because there was enoughroom for both of us. Right,
I was on the pullout, hewas in the bedroom. And then the
other issue is, you know whenis our big vacation every year? It's
at the end of the year,right, basically our big vacation. You
and I take too big. Wetake a big vacation at the end of
the year, big vacation in thesummertime. And I told my mother,
(37:42):
I said, we're not going tobe able to come see you every year
because as a kid, I neverdid any traveling. I want to do
my traveling. I have a buddy. He and his family just came back
for they went to Italy for Thanksgiving. Wow, and I was so jealous.
That's what I'm doing next year.Yeah, like I somebody better call
the in laws because we're not coming. We have friends who go to Hawaii
everything, you know what I mean. So I told my mother, we
(38:05):
will make it to your house everyother year. Ish. I just don't
know that was offensive. You shouldn'tforce a holiday just because your blood.
I know that sounds terrible, right, that's back to the original question.
What if you just absolutely I wouldlove somebody to check in. You absolutely
don't get along with your family,but you go anyway and making snarky comments
(38:30):
and it's uncomfortable. The only otherthing I can think of is and then
crampus shows up because you want thecousins to play together. You want your
kids to grow up together just becauseyou're I'll say it, just because your
generation couldn't figure it out, ormaybe your parents' generation couldn't figure it out.
You want your kids to play togetherbecause even when my sister and I
(38:50):
are not happy with each other,we still want our kids to grow up
together, so we'll still show up. Does that make sense? Yes,
maybe that's it. But like justreferencing I know this is a movie real
life, but even just referencing thismovie, the daughters of the sisters family
were so mean to this kid.They read his Christmas letter to Santa at
the table. I mean, Ifeel like that's for comedy I'm not sure
(39:12):
if that's real life or not,but maybe maybe the Crampst family's out there
and they're listening right now and theycan shed some insight as to why they
still get together. Anyway, letus know, all right, let's take
a pause. Use the talkback featureon the iHeartRadio app, the hard hitting
questions we ask on this show thatlittle red microphone. Leave us a message.
You can send us a DM.You can also hit us up eight

That's a fairly even us. Shine. It's time for good news with
(42:05):
Marcus and Corey. Go. Sometimesall you need is the won a good
thought to make it a great day. So let's do this. It's good
news on Star one one three.We gave you good news twice in morning
Seveny just trying to brighten your day. As always, Corey's gonna kick us
off with her good news. We'reheaded to New Jersey, where a unique
Christmas event was held at a housethat was decorated to resemble the setting from
(42:30):
the film National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation oneof my favorites. We watch it every
year. Now. Chevy Chase,who starred in the nineteen eighty nine movie,
was there, which drew a lotof fans. They did a screening
of the movie, followed by chevyChase re enacting the moment in the movie
when he lights his homes Christmas lights. Do it, Corey, It was
not really much to do. Youjust kind of slam your hands together.
(42:50):
Oh, I thought there was aline. You always have a line,
I will. Some of my favoritelines from that movie are dirty. But
let's move on. AnyWho, thisis good news now. The event supports
George's House, which is a nonprofitdedicated to helping children and families in need
by providing toy donations and transitional housing. The founder first came up with the
idea for the event after decorating hisown home like the Christmas movie. And
(43:15):
now it's gotten huge. That's great. Yeah, and I love that chevy
Chase was there to say the chevyChase nice, we're doing good news right
now. So my good news isabout a hero who evacuated basically his entire
apartment building after a big fire brokeout. Wow, he's not being hailed
a hero. His name is Phil. So the fire breaks out at two
in the morning last Wednesday. Thisis in a little town in Colorado.
(43:37):
And he gets his family out andthen he goes back in and starts banging
on all the neighbors' doors to makesure they all get out as well.
That's great. And he and hisfamily lost everything in the fire. That's
the worst part about I think abouta fire is you lose a lot of
memories, you know, h alot of people still have, you know,
physical photos and things like that.At any rate, he works at
(44:00):
a like a local automotive in town. They gave him ten grand so he
could pay for housing and replace allthe Christmas gifts that they lost in the
fire. Oh, that's so nice. And then they said that's just who
he is, that's just his characterputting others first. So Phil, out
there in Thornton, Colorado, you'remy hero today, and that's my good
news. Seven forty three. We'llcheck what's trending next. What do you
(44:21):
have the story behind the movie.The blind Side took another ugly turn yesterday.
You thought it was getting weird before. Ugh. This is what I'm
talking about is what's trending on starton what's happening in entertainment news, the
biggest stories of the day, andeverything people are talking about today. In
the Babe, power Ball continues togrow. There was no Grand Prize Winter
(44:44):
last night, so tomorrow's drawing's gonnabe worth four hundred and thirty five million,
and then Mega millions tonight. That'sthree hundred and seventy seven million.
I'd take it that would help aboutChristmas very much. The story behind the
movie The blind Side took another uglyturn yesterday. So Sean and Leanne Towey,
if you remember that movie, theyfound a guy who's down on his
(45:06):
luck in high school and invited himinto their home. And now Michael Orr
apparently is extorting them for millions ofdollars and threatening them if they didn't send
him money, according to them,according to their attorneys, Their attorneys shared
screenshots of alleged text messages by Orin which he calls them thieves and demands
they send him upwards of fifteen millionor else he'll go public with their dispute
(45:29):
over their earnings from the two thousandand nine film. This is just so
sad, because I really enjoyed thatmovie and now it's all tainted gross still
a good movie. Though, it'sstill a good movie. But now that
you know this story isn't exactly whathappened on screen, but I don't know.
The movie Elf celebrating its twentieth anniversaryand one of the most memorable scenes
(45:51):
when Buddy makes spaghetti with its unusualtoppings. You can get an actual Buddy
the Elf spaghetti kid from Hello Fresh. Now. Somebody said it was sold
out today, but we did geta talkback saying it was sold out for
today. Maybe there'll be more,maybe tomorrow. This is just spaghetti with
maple syrup. Correct, No morespaghetti maple syrup, chocolate syrup, marshmallows,
(46:13):
chocolate candies, and chocolate frosted pastries. Okay, and that's a lot
of ingredients. I was gonna say, just build it yourself, but that
is a lot of ingredients. Plusit also has for the anniversary these plates
that have the four main ELF foodgroups on them. Candy, candy canes,
candy, corn, and syrup.This is all on the website Hello
Fresh Elf Spaghetti. But like Isaid, someone Collin said it was sold
(46:35):
out for today, but maybe keepchecking back. It does sound like a
lot of fun. I'm not gonnalie a lot of fun and I might
have to cut a toe off.That's a lot of sugar going on in
there. Let's see locally. Ifound out the wag Brigade at SFO celebrating
its tenth anniversary. Now, whatis the wag Brigade? Are we all
familiar? I am? Now,these are therapy animals that there was an
(47:00):
SPCA project and they just roam theairport. If you have anxiety traveling,
you can hook look up the wagBrigade. I wonder if they are in
certain terminals because I never saw themwhen I was flying back and forth.
They were never bellied up at katKorra drinking chardonnay. No, I would
really if they weren't, then you'dnever see them like a Welsh rabbit,
(47:23):
you know, having some meatballs nextto me or something. Anybody. I
thought that was cute, so verysweet. Shout out to the wag Brigade
there at SFO, helping travelers travelwith less anxiety. Strikes set to happen
today at San Francisco State. Idon't know if it's already popping off or
not. To be honest with you, this is part of a rolling strikes
(47:44):
in the CSU system this week,and what I know is that there's a
stalin labor negotiations. Obviously, unionsasking for a twelve percent salary raise.
CSU is proposing a fifteen percent salaryraise. What I did find interesting was
that both parties have hired neutral investigatorsto be fact finders in trying to find
(48:05):
the terms for the next deal.I think the rolling strike is interesting because
not everybody's striking all the time,correct, So that's kind of a benefit
for students. It's going up anddown and through the system. What is
the most popular holiday cocktail per state? Am I going to agree with this?
I don't know. I'm going toask you something called where is it?
(48:28):
Where? Oh? Say? Okay? So in Minnesota they prefer the
maple old fashioned. You've been there, you lived there for a while.
California prefers the Irish coffee. Thatmakes sense, no shocker there. It's
an Irish coffee, it's got liquorin it. It's it's coffee with the
Irish cream, Irish whiskey. Yeah, and then like whipped cream restaurants.
(48:50):
Its delicious I'm not sure I knowwhich one you're thinking. I should know
this answer right off the top ofmy head, but I don't remember.
Now, let me ask you this. Have you ever heard of a coquito?
A coquito? C o q u? I t o coquito? Apparently
this is the number one holiday drinkin Florida? Is it like a mohito?
I don't know, doesn't say,I'm gonna have to look that up.
(49:13):
I don't know. Wow, I'venever heard of it. Oh,
straight, eggnog. I do likeeggnog. And then I just read and
this has been going on for awhile. Scoma's down in Fisherman's Wharf sells
a sixty dollars eggnog. Whoa sixtydollars house made eggnog? So eggnog is
Washington? Wait? Is that oneorgan that sixty dollars eggnog? Is that
(49:36):
with the alcohol in it? Yes? Okay, okay, So I learned
that eggnog is almost don't quote mebecause I'm not a doctor, but eggnog
is almost shelf stable. When youput the liquor in it, the liquor
keeps the bacteria away. They dida study double check people. I did
a deep dive. When you don'tput liquor in it, it is teeming
with bacteria. Sure, but ifyou put liquor in it, somehow it
(49:58):
keeps it more shelf stable. VeryI have to do the low fat otherwise
it's too much. Oh yeah,let's see what else? Okay, so
real quick check on the sports desk. The Sharks are in New York.

you know about that? The Starone oh one three more variety from the
two thousands, the nineties, andtoday it's Star one oh one three.
It's mark because in Corey eight fourteenthey asked a bunch of adults what they
think constitute's a good date? Andapparently there's a price tag on it,
and these I think these are singleadults too. Well, of course,
(55:09):
hopefully married people not going on toomany dates. Well, they go on
dates with each other. Oh that'strue, sir, I don't know where
my head was. Hey, Hey, so singles surveyed a proper date should
cost at least one hundred and ninetysix dollars. That just seems ridiculous to
me. Ridiculous. I mean maybeif you're getting a bottle of wine,
(55:32):
it could be that much. Butlet's say entrees at the most are like
fifty bucks each. It's one hundredbucks for two entrees them. What what's
the ninety six? A bottle ofwine can run you sixty bucks? Yeah,
maybe dessert and dessert. Maybe anappeteasers going to run you twelve to
fifteen bucks. Appeteezer is gonna runyou another twelve to fifteen bucks, possibly
(55:58):
twenty. Am I getting the ahpoke? Not sure. It's when I think
about my first date with my husbandand other first dates that I went on.
We went to Noodles in Company.Now there's a strategicy to it.
He took me to Noodles and Company, which is a chain that you ordered
the counter. He did it onpurpose. He wanted to see if I
was high maintenance. So he's playinggames. Yeah, I knew exactly what
(56:19):
he's doing. Sucker. I don'tknow who's the sucker. It worked,
it works, but it was perfectlyfine for me. You know. It
was like, we're getting to knoweach other. And I think if you
pull out all the stops on thatfirst date, you sit in the bar,
real high says here. Men saythey tend to spend a little more
on their partners four hundred and thirtybucks while women average two hundred seventy two.
(56:43):
Now, this is gifts, giftswhile you're dating. Wow, And
I can't help but think that thereis some level of expectation hanging over there
for dudes. I know it soundsvery nineties, but I feel badly for
ladies where you go out to dinnerand then the guy is like quote un
quote expecting something. I hate that. I hate that. Well, don't
get the lobster, but it shouldn'tbe that way. I know. It's
(57:07):
like like a theme. I wasjust watching some clips from movies from like
the nineties, and the stuff thatused to be okay is not okay.
It's not okay. Give me alight example, every episode of Three's Company.
That's not really nineties, that's moreeighties. But just like one of
my movies that people like around theholidays that I don't is The Family Stone
(57:29):
and what universe would brothers all ofa sudden go, you know what?
I like your girlfriend better? Let'sswitch? Is that the premise of the
movie. That's part of it.We're getting off topic. We're getting off
topic. But dating wise, Ijust I don't think you should like I
don't know, hearing is gentlemen.You should not set an expectation based on
how much you're spending on the date. And you know what I mean by
(57:49):
expectation, I don't like it.I think that you know, if there's
gonna be any sort of consent,it should be because you're a good dude,
not because of how much money youshelled out, of course not.
But when it comes to the Iwant to know if people agree with this
amount one hundred and ninety six dollarsfor your first date. I mean I
think so. I think so.In the Bay, I mean we just
(58:12):
ran through it. Two entrees plusappetizer plus dessert, don't forget tax and
tip. Yeah, and if you'rein the city, there is the uh
what is it the workers tax orthe health tax. I don't know.
There's just a bunch of fees onthere. You know what I mean.
You get to two hundred bucks prettyeasy, Okay, I mean I guess,
I guess it makes sense, especiallyif you're going to be drinking alcoholic
(58:32):
beverages. Yeah. I was soglad when my wife and I and when
we dated for sure, and thiswas before kids or whatever, but that
we got so comfortable so quickly,because I always said, like, dating
is exhausting, it's expensive. Yeah, you know what I mean, And
yes they do. You're trying toattract, hopefully if you're into it,
that long term mate, but youknow, the dance is real. I
(58:57):
usually went on two dates and thenI was like, for you figured out
where I figured out if that's ifthis is gonna happen. And because I
was just like, I don't wanto waste my time. I don't waste
time like pretending that you and Ihave something. My wife became that person
where let's see how much we can'tspend on this day because we just enjoyed
each other's company so much. Ohyeah, we would just go to Does
(59:19):
anybody else go to Target on aSaturday and just wheel around because it's fun?
No, how do you save moneyat Target? You go into Target
to get batteries, you leave onehundred dollars. Not wrong, but there
was just something about going up andso strange. You go up and down
the aisles and you just talk.You know, we don't really have time
to do that anymore with kids,But like back in the day, that
was a good Saturday night. Man, pick up some toilet paper if you
(59:43):
needed it. You know the bigroles. I know, weird. It's
weird. I mean because I'm thinking, like i'd like, you know,
if we want to chat, I'lljust go for a walk in Target.
But then you spend money, Yeah, you're right, anyway, one hundred
and ninety six bucks for a properdate. I don't think there should be
a price tag on here. Onein eight people say three hundred is the
number we're getting A Yeah, Idon't know who these people are, but
(01:00:07):
I hope there's like more than twopeople on the date you come, going
on dates four time, once aquarter at that point, A right,
eight nineteen Coming up in a fewminutes, we're going to be talking about
small things that you should be proudof. Thanks, we forget to remind
ourselves of that we should be proudof. We'll get into that. Coming
up after Whitney Houston. It's Starone O one three. More variety from
(01:00:29):
the two thousands, the nineties,and today it's Star one O one three.
It's Marcus and Corey eight twenty three, Tuesday morning, Good morning.
I thought this was interesting, Smallthings that people should be proud of themselves
for stuff you don't think about.A lot of this list reads as how
to be a good human. Yeah, you know what I mean. I
mean it sounds simple, but youknow, I don't think you think about
(01:00:51):
this on the daily. Number one, being compassionate and kind to others.
Yeah, it's amazing to me howmuch we've lost that here in twenty twenty.
You're constantly telling me all the time, you don't know what they're going
through, you don't know what's happening. I'm like, let me just have
my emotion. I know it's atoo, It's it's a double edged sword,
because the way Corey processes is ifanybody else is like this, and
(01:01:15):
she gets fired up about stuff,and then I want her to see it
from the other point of view,and so I say dumb things like well
you should really, I'm just verballyvomiting. I don't necessarily need you to
help me. I struggle with thatso much. My wife tells me,
listen, sometimes people want advice andsometimes they just need to be heard.
(01:01:36):
Yep. And you need to knowthe difference. Yep. But you should
be compassionate to others. Sure,I can come in here and say whatever
I want, because I'm not goingto say it in the hallways. I'll
say it here and then show compassionout there. My father used to say,
Mundo, every every head is itsown world. Everybody's got something going
(01:01:59):
on, you know. I mean, yeah, I really like letting go
of toxic people in your life.Yes, Because I have a friend who
was sad that her friend circle wasgetting smaller as she got older, And
I said, that's because you wereremoving the toxicity from your life. Man,
I have my friend circle whittled downso tight. It's so lovely.
Every single person that I can thinkof. If I spend time with him,
(01:02:20):
it fills my cup and it feelsgood. We've talked about that over
the last month because I'm trying tobreak up with somebody and it's not easy.
No, it's not easy, especiallyif you have history with somebody.
Yeah, and I'm a firm believerthat you shouldn't keep somebody in your life
just because of longevity, like,oh, I've known them since elementary school,
or I've known them since junior highor we went to high school together.
(01:02:42):
I mean, I are a goodperson. Well, it doesn't mean
and they may be a good person. You may be a good person,
but you're may be no longer compatibleon some level. Yeah, you know
what I mean. Yes, I'llpiggyback letting go of toxic people with saying
no to someone you know isn't goodfor you, even if it makes you
feel good. That's in the samevein. It's okay to say no.
(01:03:05):
That's a lot you know. Also, something that. I notice people do
a lot like I say I'm sorryto everything. My friend Kim does it
too, right, Sorry Sorry?Are you really sorry? Do you need
to be sorry? Or is itjust a habit. I try not to
do that all the time. Ihad somebody say that to me when I
was super young. I was inmy twenties and I was saying sorry all
the time, and he stopped me. He goes, Marcus, stop saying
(01:03:27):
you're sorry all the time. Toyour point, what you just said,
You can't possibly be sorry every singletime. You don't mean it, say
it when you mean it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, another small thing.
You should be proud of yourself formaintaining and nurturing friendships. Yep,
friendships ebb and flow. My bestfriend and I have broken up at least
nine times. Oh really where wejust need a break from each other and
(01:03:49):
we'll call it out too. Ithink it happens. I think we need
to break up right now. Ialso like making decisions that feel right to
you. Yeah, do what's bestfor you. Don't decide on something because
somebody else tells you to. Youknow. I had a friend named Scott,
and I think I'll end with this, but he had a nineteen year
(01:04:09):
old that i'll be frank like tosmoke wheed and and he didn't approve of
it, didn't like it, butalso didn't want him out on the streets
doing it. So he said,okay, you can do it in the
backyard. It's okay. And Ithought that was just And my daughter was
just born. This was a decadeago almost, and he said, here's
(01:04:29):
the thing about being a parent,Marcus, he goes on the in the
vein of making decisions to feel rightfor you. He said, I don't
know if it's the right decision,but I'm the dad and it's my decision.
There you go. And I wasthat was so profound to me as
a new father. I was like, that's that's parenting right there. I
don't know if it's the right decision, but it's my decision. I like
that exactly. All right, Smallthings you should be proud of yourself for.
(01:04:53):
If you want to add to thelist, use the talkback feature on
the iHeartRadio app that little red microphone. Hit us up, let us know
what's on your mind at all times. Eight twenty seven, We're gonna check
what's trending here in about a halfhour. What do you have, got
some big jackpots coming up in theBay Area and a Buddy the Elf pasta
kit. Yes, you can makeyour own Buddy the Elf spaghetti. The
(01:05:14):
ingredients alone, oh god, areridiculous. Yes, we'll get into that
at eight fifty. Hang on,it's a good girl. It's time for
good news with Marcus and Corey.Go. Sometimes all you need is one
good thought to make it a greatday. So let's do this. It's
good news on Star one one three. You already know we do good news
(01:05:35):
twice in morning seven, trying tomake you, make you smile, trying
to brighten your day a little bit. Corey's gonna kick us off with her
good news. We're headed to NewJersey, where a unique Christmas event was
held at a house decorated to looklike the house in Christmas Vacation with Chevy
Chase. Now that movie came outin nineteen eighty nine, was just a
few years ago, and lots offans came out to this event because Chevy
(01:05:56):
Chase was there himself. They doa show of the movie and then afterwards
he re enacted the moment in themovie when he lights his house up with
the Christmas Lights. The event actuallysupports George's House, which is a nonprofit
organization dedicated to helping children and familiesin need by providing toy donations and transitional
housing. The founder of it cameup with the idea for the event after
decorating his own home in the themeof the Christmas Favie. But I love
(01:06:19):
that Chevy Chase was actually there inperson. That's pretty neat for a good
cost too, Yeah, pretty awesome. I'm doing good news right now.
My good news is a guy inThornton, Colorado who's being hailed a hero.
His name is Phil, and theapartment building he lived in caught fire
last Wednesday, like two in themorning. Yikes. So Phil evacuated his
own family and then he ran inand knocked on every single neighbor's door.
(01:06:42):
That's increasing, so a lot ofapartments. He just wanted to make sure
that any and he helped everybody getout safely. Everybody was cool, even
though he and his family says theylost everything in the fire. That's awful.
He went right back to work andhis employer, which was a local
a motive spot, gave him tengrand in recognition, so he could pay
(01:07:03):
for housing and replace the Christmas giftsthat burned up in the fire. Oh
that's so nice. So a touchof good news there. And somebody who
worked for the company said that,you know what, that's just how Phil
is. That's his character. Heputs others ahead of himself. So failure
my hero today. Nice work man. Anyway, we're gonna check what's trending.
Coming up next. What do youhave? There's more details in this
(01:07:26):
saga behind the blind Side, thatmovie from two thousand and nine. It's
just taking another ugly turn making itickier and Ickier tell you all about it.
Coming up at eight point fifty,it's just Star one on one three.
Good morning, train, It's Starone on one three. It's Marcus
and Corey, Good morning. Thisis what I'm talking about. It's what's
trending on Star one one three,what's happening in entertainment news, the biggest
(01:07:48):
stories of the day, and everythingpeople are talking about today. In the
bab powerball jackpots continuing to grow afterno winter and last night's drawing. That
means tomorrow's drawing will be worth atleast four h three five million and then
mega millions tennight that's at three hundredand seventy seven million. I'm mad at
that. I take it. Thestory behind the movie The blind Side has
(01:08:10):
taken another ugly turn, because earlierthis year we were Michael Or had come
out and said that story is notthe true story. I didn't make any
money off that movie, and that'shis side of things. Well, Sean
and LeeAnne Touhey, their attorneys,are now stating that he is demanding money
from them, and they showed allegedtext messages by Or in which he calls
(01:08:32):
them thieves and demands they sent himupwards of fifteen million dollars or else he'd
go public with their dispute over thefinancial earnings from that movie in two thousand
and nine, which Sandra Bullock wonan oscar for. And when this all
came out that he wasn't really adopted, that they didn't give him any money,
people were like, oh, takeaway her oscar. She didn't have
anything to do with that. Sheplayed a very good role. She did
(01:08:55):
a great job. I know peopleare so weird AnyWho. That's just really
disappointing because I liked that movie andnow you're finding out this stuff. I
don't know who's telling the truth.Hopefully we'll figure it out. The good
news is that Elf, you know, the movie Elf, celebrating its twentieth
anniversary. Well, HelloFresh is bringingthem back the Buddy the Elf Spaghetti Kit.
(01:09:17):
Now. It's sold out for today, but keep checking back. It
debuted last year and it includes spaghetti, maple syrup, chocolate syrup, marshmallows,
chocolate candies, and chocolate frosted pastries. It it also comes with a
plate featuring the four main Elf foodgroups candy, candy, canes, candy,
corn, and syrup. There's alsoan apron that looks like Buddy the
(01:09:38):
ELF's signature green suit, and youcan even get a plastic resealable bag to
pack your spaghetti for lunch, justlike Buddy did. Love it. The
website is Hello Fresh spa Elfspaghetti dotcom, HelloFresh Elfspaghetti dot Com. There
you go. Let's see. Theyreleased the list of favorite holiday cocktails by
(01:09:58):
state. In California, it isthe ubiquitous Irish coffee, of course,
invented at the Buena Vista Cafe outthere in Fisherman's warth nineteen fifty two.
It's tasty, yeah, very good. That's where you get the original.
May I also suggest the Chieftain andthe Irish Bank. If you're in San
Francisco looking for a good Irish coffee, what else do I have for you?
(01:10:20):
So, the wag Brigade at SFOis celebrating its tenth anniversary. If
you don't know what the wag Brigadeis, this is a collection of professional
animals that are there for as nottherapy, but emotional support. Emotional support.
Thank you when you're traveling. Uhhuh, Well it's a cute doggies
and kiddies and buddies and again it'scalled the wag Brigade at SFO. If
(01:10:42):
you have a lot of anxiety whileyou're traveling, look it up. I
love it. I wish they hadcome to the cat cor bar in the
Alaskan Terminal. Bunny rabbit bellied up, drinking charred Yeah, telling Correot's problems.
Yes, how it happens. Strikehappening at San Francisco State University.
There is a so it's a rollingstrike. So they're striking throughout the state
(01:11:06):
system. There's a stall in labornegotiations. Union's asking for a twelve percent
salary raise in twenty twenty three,CSU is proposing a fifteen percent salary bump
over the next three years, andso we'll see what happens there. Obviously
they're not agreeing, and that's whythat's happening. But shout out to anybody
who I guess classes were suspended.But it is a rolling strike, so
(01:11:29):
it's different school, different school everyday. Yeah, in the CSU system
and striking just in general sucks,and I hope everybody gets at least some
sort of compromise so we can getthis thing done and get back to learning.
Let's see, we'll go to thesports desk really quick, Sharks or
in New York to take on theIslanders this afternoon, four point thirty puck
drop. Let's go shark. Guesswhat's trending every weekday morning on the fifties.
(01:11:51):
That's a six fifty seven eight fiftyAM. And connect now with the
Marcus and Corey socials and blogs.That's dot Com, Olivia Rodrigo, Star
one on one three, it's Marcusand Corey. Best believe the countdown has
burned in my brain for her andher two shows at Chase Center next year.
Yeah, quicker than that she's gonnabe on Saturday Night Live this weekend.
(01:12:15):
Yes, if I'm not mistake.Driver made the mistake of telling my
nine year old, and now she'strying to make the case to stay awake.
Oh I just watch them the nextday. I know you do,
but you know, tell her justbe patient. Yeah, nine two.
We're talking holidays, We're talking holidaytravel. We have a little bit of
an unorthodox question. Well, Iwas watching a movie last night called Crampus,
(01:12:39):
and it's about Christmas time and thefamily's getting ready for the mom's sister
to come into town with her family, and they're all miserable, Like the
little boy doesn't like his cousins.The girl was complaining about the cousins,
and the cousins are kind of likebullies. The husband's like kind of a
redneck. And it's just I'm sittingthere and I turn to my husband like
(01:13:03):
three times, I'm like, whyare they even getting together? They all
look miserable, And then when theyget there, the little digs and the
snarky comments come in. Does anybodyget along in this movie? Well,
you know, they got a bandtogether to fight Crampis, so okay.
You know, it's a little bitof it, you know, if they
see the light bit of a twist. But I just thought to myself,
(01:13:25):
why do we force ourselves into scenariosthat we know we're not going to enjoy?
Do you have to? I've beenthinking about this for a few hours,
and I think the answer is notevery it's I don't know that it's
possible that nobody gets along, right, So, like, on one hand,
from a from a from a son'sperspective. On one hand, mom
(01:13:47):
wants everybody to get together. Shejust wants all of her kids to get
along. Maybe she maybe you havea few brothers and sisters or whatever,
for one day out of the year, can we all just get along.
That's on one hand, right,Yeah, maybe you have one brother that
you like, one brother nobody,nobody likes you and your sister get along,
okay, as long as there's wineinvolved. I'm just I'm spitballing here.
(01:14:10):
But sometimes it's on the other endof the spectrum. If there's wine
involved, correct, that can alsobe grenades. And then maybe you're okay
with going, but your significant otherwants nothing to do with your family,
or vice versa. I love myin laws, I don't like traveling during
the holidays. That's a big onetoo. Whether you're flying or driving,
it's going to be a pain inthe butt. I just think that you
(01:14:31):
shouldn't force something if you know it'snot going to be a good time.
Yes, I would agree with that. Now for us, I love my
mother. Her husband's fantastic. ButI have invited her to our house a
thousand times. Mom, just buya plane ticket and get here. You
can stay at the house, youcan stay downstairs. But she wants everybody
(01:14:55):
at Grandma's house for Christmas. It'slike a thing. Well, she probably
doesn't want to travel, but Imean she wants to see you experinanially easier
for her and her husband to rallybecause they don't you know, they're retired,
they don't have children in the house. They have a dog they have
to deal with. But that's itas it as opposed to my family where
you know, that's an extra planeticket, plus we got to rent a
(01:15:17):
car. Then we got to drivetwo more hours. She lives up in
Bellingham, Washington. It's not easyto get there, and so it's stressful.
Now once we get there, everything'sfine. See I'm talking more about
sure you're talking about people just notget along. I'm talking about people who
are like actively making digs because likein this movie I watched last night,
(01:15:38):
they were talking trash about the foodand she spent all this time making the
food, and I just you know, there's those questions that I love.
I love it when the singles goon social media and they're like, well,
I can't wait for Aunt Debbie toask me when I'm gonna get married.
I can't wait for Uncle Larry totease me about being single again.
I feel like every family, inherently, and I again broad strokes, I
(01:16:00):
could be wrong. Every family inherentlysort of mostly gets along and then there's
like one or two grenades, oneor two live wires that just blow it
for everybody. Yeah, that feelsaccurate to me. I feel like this
movie maybe they played up just forthis. It's a movie. It's a
movie, but I mean that's youknow, there's these ridiculous movies out there
where you're just like, I don'tget it. Like The Family Stone.
(01:16:21):
Everybody loves that movie. I hatethat movie. Is We're You spontaneously brothers
just go you want to switch girls? What is there anybody out there where
your family just absolutely does not getalong. And every year you say to
yourself, what are we doing?Why do we get It's a great question.
Used to talk back. Would loveto hear from you that little red
microphone on the iHeartRadio app. Youcan also just hit us up eight hundred,
(01:16:44):
eight hundred, one oh one three. More variety from the two thousands,
the nineties, and today it's Starone oh one three, it's Marcus
and Corey. It's nine forty one. There is a video on the Marcus
of Corey instagram that was reposted byJerry O'Connell and putting San Matteo on the
map, and not in a goodway. I saw this on Jerry O'Connell's
instagram and thought, oh, whata grinch. Somebody pulls up next to
(01:17:09):
a car that has a Christmas treeon it, uh huh, and in
seconds they steal it, they clipthe ropes and take it. And and
then when I looked at it andgot more details, it's here. It's
in San Mateo and he's driving likea sixty thousand dollars getaway vehicle. That's
my other favorite part. You,I mean, that is just the ultimate
definition of grinch. If you know, if it's at the Bridge Point shopping
(01:17:30):
Center, which you know, that'smy target, that's my home depot.
Yeah, that's my Uh, there'sa barbecue joint out there, Armadillo Willie's
awesome. Sorry, Why am Ithinking about robecue right now? I don't
know. At any rate, it'sbig, lots of people, my total
wine is there. I mean,we all shop there if you live in
(01:17:50):
that area. I just can't believe. I'm wondering if somebody saw him doing
this and was just like, whelp. I mean, it happened so fast.
I mean, but but the thevideo looks like camera security security video.
The video is sped up because apparentlyit took this guy four minutes.
Okay, still you run in torun an errand after getting your tree and
(01:18:14):
then nucks man, you just thinkto yourself, there's no way somebody would
stoop this low. There's no way. And the fact that they're driving an
expensive car like they can afford this. They don't need to ruin somebody's holiday
season. Like your friends Kim andFred when they came to half Moon Bay.
They came to get a tree fromSanta's Tree Farm, and then they
parked their vehicle outside of our ofthe bar there you pl And when she
(01:18:40):
told me that they did that,my first thought was, man, I
hope nobody gaffles your tree. Butthen I thought nobody would do that.
Who would do that? You needto be prepared against the rules, because
that guy had a tool to cutthe ropes. I mean just need you
need an exact on knife. Butstill, and then you have to have
a way to get it into yourcar. I'm in your car if you
are okay, there are two scenarioshere. If you're bent on stealing Christmas
(01:19:05):
trees, then you're gonna be readywith your exact knife, your nylon rope,
a little little blanket to protect yourto protect your lid. I would
not I could never bring myself totalk to this person because I would just
you're the worst person in the world. Well, I mean there's worse people
than that. But the idea ofstealing a Christmas tree being prepared just like
(01:19:26):
actively seeking a tree to steal,because the only the only other, the
only other scenario is crime of opportunitybecause a if I'm thinking like a criminal,
the trees are not cheap. No, you know, it's not easy.
And that's the thing. It's noteasy to run a Christmas tree farm.
The trees aren't cheap, and it'sa crime of opportunity. You see
(01:19:48):
a tree on somebody's car and yougo, I want that, right And
then now you're not totally prepared,but you're prepared enough to go grab it,
but you better have some rope totie it down. Check out the
video. It's awful. The bestpart is I think the tree lot gave
them another tree. Oh they did, so that part's cool. That is
cool. But still they're gonna seethis and you're gonna be like, how
(01:20:11):
in the world can somebody stoop thislow? Like when I read about people
we were talking about it last week, people stealing from animal shelters. You
know, it stole that dog food. They stole all that fifteen hundred bucks
worth of dog food from an animalshelter and it's it's senior dogs. So
they steal toys from toys for tots. It's like, what happening. Thankfully,
we do good news and know thatthere's a lot of good in this
(01:20:33):
world, but this is one ofthose moments. Anyway, Sam Matteo on
