Speaker 1 (00:00):
More variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and Today
star one oh one three Marcus and Coreyi six. Good morning,
it's Thursday. Yes, it is Friday eight going on, Corey.
I had the most.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Crazy wardrobe malfunctions this morning. But I had like a
fun little rap. I was gonna wear the little like
sweatery kind of rap and had way too much dog
here on it, so I was like, no, I can't
wear that. And then I put on something else and
I was like, oh, that's not flattering.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
It was like and then I look at the clock
and I'm like, really, what just happened? I lost twenty minutes.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
And I plan my outfits ahead of time, but sometimes,
like I'll walk into the second bedroom where I get
dressed so I don't disturb my husband who's sleeping, and
I'll look at what I laid out the night before
and I'm like, what was I thinking?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
That's ridiculous? I uh doude. Time burns really fast in
the morning. Yeah, when you're getting ready for work, it's crazy. Yeah.
The slowest time is when you're waiting for a frozen
breedo to come out of the micro that's the slow time.
But the fast time is like I gotta get in
the car and I need to go and I need
(01:06):
to get to work. Yeah, I want to thank you
Corey for holding it down. Yesterday while I went off
to the movies after the show, I was like, I
want to go see the new Bob Dylan biopic with
Timothy Chettamy.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
You get like a wild hair because you did this
with Gladiator two as well. Like we're sitting here where
we're working and you're like, I gotta go, and you're like, gone, It's.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
How brilliant this job is because I can say, like, hey,
it's pop culture. I gotta go see this movie. And
so Corey held it down. And when I left, did
our boss come in here at all?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Because I left right at eleven, I was gone. I
was here till about noon. Okay, that's not bad, No,
brilliant movie, good, just absolutely, you're gonna make fun of me.
But I cried three times? Shut up? What it was
that good?
Speaker 4 (01:55):
What kind of But what was happening that made you cry?
I mean, don't give away the movie, but just what
was going on? And Okay, even if you're not a
Bob Dylan fan, you may not even know who he is,
but it was the story of a struggling singer songwriter
trying to make it and the trials and tribulations, and
then the soundtrack kicked in and then they started playing
(02:15):
like a rolling Stone and he's on stage and I
just I lost it. And the sad part about this
is there's a guy just two seats down for me,
and I'm trying to hold.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
It together and at some point just water works. I can't.
I don't care. He said, Look, he's probably looking over
through his popcorn, like, is that guy okay? He came
in by himself, you know A Bob Dylan still live, right,
I do? And he's terrible live. I mean, I'll say
it's I'm saying, but watching him live in concert is
not enjoyable to me. I've seen it. I saw him
(02:47):
in Berkeley and he was okay. But his music, if
a his music meant a lot to me. And b
I think I was born in the wrong decade. I
think I'm a sixties guy. I really don't know. That's
had a lot of revelations in the theater yesterday and
I wept there. I said it.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
I have nothing to say because I don't want to
be mean it's a really good movie.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
And not only not only is Timothy chalow May amazing
in this movie my favorite role, but the actor and
her name I didn't write her name down, but the
actor that plays Joan Biez also amazing. She was a
lady singer songwriter from the sixties who probably paved the
way for every singer songwriter you've ever heard on the
(03:35):
radio period, full stop.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
That's a that's a bold statement because there are a
lot of very impactful female artists.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
It's a really good movie. Sorry, it's called a Complete
Unknown starring Timothy Shalloway. Anyway you start crying now, No,
I don't think so. I think I'm okay. I want
to hold it together. What's coming up? Lots of stuff.
We have more tickets to see Kathy Griffith at the
Masonic that's at eight oh five with the base favorite
(04:04):
trivia game called what you Know About That? And then
as it's New Year, new you here in twenty twenty
five the top things Corey's favorite phrase, the top things
to throw away in the New Year. Now, I love purging.
I was gonna say, you're not a proponent of being
a new person, but you do love purging. I do
love purging. Well, we'll get into that at six twenties
old variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today
(04:26):
it's Star one on one three, it's Marcus and Corey Thursday.
Good morning everyone.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
I'm getting amped looking at this list. New Year, New
you girl, I please stop saying that.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Guess what. I'm the same person I was, you know,
nine days ago. Things to donate or throw out to
start the new year. And I love this stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I love purging. I like, I don't like clutter. What's
your number one hitter on here of old makeup? Okay,
there is. I learned this when I was in college
because I took a costume and makeup class because I
was studying theater. There is an expiration day to make up.
What happens if you use expired makeup? You could, like
(05:06):
old mascara is not good. You can maybe get an infection,
your skin could break out. Definitely keep an eye on.
Like yesterday I was talking to my friend Kim. We
had lunch, and she's like, I used this lipstick.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
I'd used it in a while and it smelled really chemically.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Okay, Like, there's a point where you should stop using something.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
So I should throw out that eyeliner and potentially even
the flat iron I have from the early two thousands.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yes, okay, yeah, and I say for a friend, also,
stop telling people that another good one for things you
should get rid of expire or use gift cards. You
know you've got like that one gift card that has
like thirty two cents left on it, Sure get rid
of it.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
And now it's my understanding, somebody correct me. In the
state of California, Corey, gift cards are not allowed to expire.
I think maybe I think it's state law. I think.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
But if you have you ever had like a gift
card where you used it and then like there's maybe
a dollar left on it, and hold onto that.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
But fun fact, I was cleaning out my dad's in
law unit during the break and I found a Williams
Sonoma gift card with sixty eight dollars on its Williams
Sonoma for sixty I don't know a pot holder.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Uh, salt pepper shakers barely dull knives, yes.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Unless you can sharpen them and make them new again.
And also you know sidebar, but your local butcher might
actually shop sharpen your knives for like five bucks of pop.
That's nice.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Why that's nice? Worn out towels. I was just looking
at my towels the other day and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
When did I get these? I see your towels, Corey
and I throw in worn out T shirts? Worn out
t shirts?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Do you have any sort of like pitted shirts or
any stains or anything like that. What we do is
we take our old shirts and turn them into dog toys,
because when we buy nice dog toys, they just destroy
them in two minutes. So we tie our shirts and knots.
They have a heyday with them. Old spices. My spice
cabinet is a disaster. It's a project waiting to happen
(07:09):
because because I cook and I'm impossible to shop for,
when people buy me gifts, they bring me spices.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
So I have so many that it hit ahead over
the weekend when my wife opened the spice cabinet and
a piece of combu fell out. And now that is
a seaweed that you used to make ramen, you make
the broth. But it was like kind of whitish, and
she looked at me. She picks it up, she goes,
(07:35):
is this okay, no, no, but my spice situation is
a disaster, so yes, and your spices are typically only
good for a couple of years. Yeah, so that's a
good one to get rid of. Single socks. Yes again
once it get those turned into dog toys for us,
and you're never gonna find the other one.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Expired medications yep, and broken electronic dude.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
So when I was purging my dad's place, Yeah, I
threw out a lot of textbooks. I threw out a
lot of just books nobody's gonna read. But also I
found an entire container of just e waste old cords.
Yeah old you know, an old printer, hard drives, and
your local recycling center will typically take them no charge.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Because I realized we have the same thing we've got
like a drawer, like because every time you upgrade your phone,
the old chargers don't fit correct, you know, they want
you to buy the news stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
So also that CDs, tapes, vhs if you want to
get rid of any of that. I found a place
in Berlin game fun fact. It's called green Citizen, and
for a little cost they will take all that stuff
off your hands.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Nice, nice purging baby, It just god, I get excited.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
It's weird. It's one of those weird turn ons for me,
like cleanliness. Ooh yeah, baby, any of your top purges
to add to the list. Leave us a talk back
if you don't mind, on the iHeartRadio app that little
red microphone. If you are listening on the stream, Thank you.
Coming up next, a harrowing story of how Corey's husband,
the Jeff, defied death. I was just shocked the text
(09:06):
you send me. That's great, right, we'll tell you what happened.
Coming up after this, it's Star one O one three
more variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today
Star one O one three it's Marcus and Corey. I
always get the weirdest texts from you, Corey, and then
they turn into things we talk about on the show.
So last night I got a text that literally said
the Jeff, her husband defied death yesterday or today. I
(09:32):
and now I need to know all the details.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Okay, So I got my husband an eascooter for Christmas
because he can drive to work. He works at Levi's,
but it's a crazy commute and there's you know, the traffic's.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Nuts around there. Sure, but he can also take bart,
which he enjoys. The problem is the walks of the
Bart station can be the walked about bo Bar park
is a little too far. Well, if it's hot, he
gets sweaty. He doesn't want to be sweaty at work.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Blah blah blah blah. So this solution was an escooter.
He can e scooter to Bart, go to work. You
can fold up your scooter, bring it off backpack.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I feel kind of responsible. I gotta be honest, because
he and I had this conversation before Christmas when we
went to the Niner game and he was like, I'm
thinking about a scooter and then I thought to myself,
what scooter is going to hold a two hundred and
forty pounds man. So I found him the Platinum scooter
and then I sent the link to Corey at his behest.
So I feel personally responsible. I didn't get that. I
know you I know, but maybe I should have.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Why So I get a text from my husband yesterday
the screws fell out of my handlebars on the scooter
and this is the.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
First they were scared. That's why he saddles up and
they're like.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Oh hell no, because is the first time he used it.
I felt terrible. He's like are you trying to kill me?
So I said, are you okay? That's awful? Is it fixable?
He said, I'm okay, but now I know why it
came with so many extra bolts. I said, both handlebars?
Did you fall? And he said no, And he sent
(11:06):
me a picture where the screws are missing. Then he
says to me, he texted me later and says, I
have a story for you.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
It was a crazy journey home. I wish I had
a video of my amazing save. I get home. I'm like,
what amazing save?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
What are you talking about? So he got off bart after,
you know, leaving work. He's scootering to our home and
this whole thing collapses cause you know it's a collapsable eastcooter.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Oh yeah, we're definitely returning it. But think about this.
My husband is six ' three, very.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Large man, and the whole thing collapses and he's like
honkered down, scooting down hill, trying not to die, trying
not to fall right on his face.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I said, could you hit the brake?
Speaker 2 (11:59):
He's like, know, because I would have gone head over
feet yeah, and landed.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
On my faith. Physics always wins. I should have got
him the one I sent you I know now see
now I know the story. Now I want to pull
up the link because the wording in the description of
the scooter that I sent you literally said, do you
want the best of the best. The wording made me
think of your husband Corey. It made me think of
(12:25):
jeffs Do you want the best of the best. We
are the platinum player of scooters with a thousand pounds
weight capacity. And I said to myself, this is the
one from my guy, this is the one. No other
scooter can handle. The jets ready to spend that much money? Well, now,
how do you feel? You almost kill me? You know
(12:47):
you realize if you take the Jeff out, there goes
half your income stream. I mean, if we think about
the investment and even just income stream, might have to
take care of myself. We can't have that. I had
to prepare my own. What about the doors? I just
I just like I felt terrible, and then I started
giggling because.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
I imagine just him holding on for dear life with
this collapse scooter.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I'm imagining your two corgies and your German shepherd looking
at the young Excuse me, why you almost take out daddy? Oh,
don't do that.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
Excuse me, He's fine, been six minutes since we ate.
Where's daddy? Can we get the real scooter? Now you've
done messing around.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
He actually just texted me and said, I think I
fixed the scooter already.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Of course he did send it back, send it back
to Timu or wherever ordered it from.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Did not get it from Timu. And I read the reviews.
I did my research. All right, here we are just everybody,
you know, be calm. The Jeff is okay.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
This story just made I'm glad. He's like someone took
a video. One on one three. It's Thursday morning. It's
Marcus and Corey. Good morning. This is what I'm talking about.
It's what's trending on Star one.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Three, what's happening in entertainment news, the biggest stories of
the day, and everything people are talking about today in
the Bay.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
With the wildfires in Los Angeles, a lot of people
want to know how they can help because some of
the well, a lot of the focus has been on celebrities,
but many of the victims are just average people and
small business owners. So here are some places that are
legit that are helping out. There's the California Fire Foundation,
Wildfire and Disaster Relief Fund, World Central Kitchen, which was
(14:35):
founded by celebrity chef Jose Andres and they're doing like
sandwiches and water not just for regular people, but for
the firefighters and everyone out there. Salvation Army, California Community Foundation,
cal Fire Benevolent Foundation that's going to help out firefighters
and families in case they have any issues fighting these fires. Also,
(14:57):
don't forget the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, Pasadena Humane Society,
and the SBCA of LA because you know there's pets
as well that are are displaced, and sometimes when people
go to evacuate, they can't take their pets with them,
so there's a lot of opportunities here.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
There's a little sign of these fires slowing down, which
is super scary. And the last stat that I read
is over one hundred thousand people have been evacuated, thousands
of structures have either been damaged or destroyed. Chances are
you know somebody whose life has been effect that. I
was texting with some friends last night because a new
fire popped off in the Hollywood Hills. So that's the
fourth big one, and apparently it's headed for downtown Hollywood,
(15:37):
so super scary, and I don't have to say it
like we help out where we can.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
My sister used to live there, she used to live
in West Hollywood, and it's just.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
It's just scary.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
A couple of weeks ago, I was telling you about
a reboot for two thousands American Psycho, that movie, yes with.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Oh goshious loss Christian Bale.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
So they were talking about Austin Butler, who played Elvis,
was going to take on the role of Patrick Bateman,
and it wasn't going to be like a sequel or redo.
It was going to be like based on the book,
more about the book than the original American Psycho. Well,
the author of the book has come out and said, Nope,
this is not real, this is not true. No such
(16:21):
plans are in place. There's no contracts with Austin Butler.
I haven't talked to any Director's fake news.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
So there's still a movie coming, but it's not based
on the book. There's no movie coming.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
No. Oh, it was all just people just yapp yep
yeppys okay, making stuff up.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
Yesterday I was in a Walgreens and we are already
inundated with Valentine's Day. Well, bath and body Works is
collabing with Sweethearts. You know, the sweetheart little hearts with.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
The messages on them.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
So Bath and body Works is collabing with the Sweethearts.
There's going to be skincare, candles, decorse socks, even accessories,
limited edition fragrancies, fragrances. It's called four, the number four
ever sweet. This will launch January thirteenth.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
I love it. Did you read about the other thing
popping off for Valentine's Day? Eminem's debuting a new flavor?
Speaker 6 (17:16):
What?
Speaker 1 (17:16):
How do you debut a new Eminem's flavor? Making Valentine's
Day a little sweeter than ever with a limited edition
strawberries and cream flavor. I don't know how I feel
about it? Is that chocolate though, combining the creamy goodness
of white chocolate with a fruity strawberry twist. Okay, I
don't know. I try it. There's also going to be
the Eminem's Valentine's Day Peanut butter Megatube. Isn't that your
(17:40):
nickname in high school? Don't? Don't. It's not even seven
o'clock yet. I need you back up here and out
of the gutter. Can you have me a ladder, Good lord,
what else is happening? The only other thing of note, frankly,
is that President Biden has declared today a national day
(18:02):
of mourning for the death of former President Jimmy Carter.
There's no mail, no mail today. Government offices are closed
except for essential services. The stock market is closed today.
The Supreme Court has been shut down today. And we
were wondering this, but the last time they had a
(18:24):
day like today for the death of a president was
George Bush in twenty eighteen when he passed. So there
you go. On that reminder, join me tomorrow for the
Home Depot customer appreciation event. It's going to be huge.
We're going to be in Colma, which is already my
home Depot. Yeah, that's the one I shop at. Ishah

get your hoops. I'm not going to go unless the
Jeff comes. So that's going to be going on all day,
and the Home Depot brand ambassadors are going to have
a mystery gift cards to give away. That's my life's
dream to be a part of something like this. So

you come out and say hi, guess what's trending every
weekday morning on the fifties. That's at six fifty seven

back with second Date Update. Let's go how do we
get you the second date? Right?
Speaker 2 (19:35):
That's why it's called second date Update because you went
on the first date. Now we're going to figure.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Out how to get you that second day. The first
date was aces So you say, am I right? Emily?
Speaker 7 (19:44):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (19:44):
First date awesome? Yeah, Okay, Let's talk about this guy Ryan,
So how did you guys meet? And then tell us
about the first date.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
We met on Tinder and I thought like she was
really charming, but he also has like an adventurous side
as well, which I liked. He's a travel blogger photography
and we talked back and forth for a couple of
weeks and then we decided to meet for a picnic
(20:13):
in Golden Gate Park and we found like a sunny
spot near the Conservatory of Flowers, and the weather was perfect,
and we had brought food, and I thought that we
had like a great connection. We talked the whole time
and laughed. I texted him a few times, but I
haven't gotten anything like back. He hasn't responded, so I
(20:35):
don't know if I should keep like reaching out or
if I should just give up.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
At what point is it harassment?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I usually I feel like it's a maybe three, but
like twould be my limit?
Speaker 1 (20:48):
May I just say, before we get into your theory, Corey,
one of the things I love about living in the
Bay is that like, yeah, it could be December and
you could be like, yeah, we had a picnic and
Eatory Flowers exactly. I don't know that they can say
that anywhere else in the country. Nope. Anyway, Emily, so Corey,
your thoughts.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Here's what I'm thinking. Conservatory of Flowers. After the picnic,
they go their separate ways. He runs smack dab into
a bee cut to anaphylactic shock.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
I thought you were literally going bee or little Shop
of horrors.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Then he got eaten by a plant.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I don't do either well, variety from the two thousands,
the nineties, and today it's Star one O one three.
It's Marcus and Corey. We're doing Second Date Update. We've
got Emily on the phone. Emily, who has endured Corey's
daily theory of what happened to her date Ryan and
why he has not reached out about a second date.
Emily was a date at the Conservatory of Flowers. Correct, Yeah,
(21:47):
and Corey picnic you were theorizing that he ran into
a bee and he's allergic. Yeah, anaphylactic shock. Yes, all right,
let's call him and figure some things out for real. Emily,
go ahead and meet your phone. Here we go. Okay, Hi,
(22:10):

Speaker 6 (22:25):
Yeah, I'm familiar?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Yeah, amazing great? Are you familiar with Second Date updates?

That's fine.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
In effect, we bring Emily on now or later. Emily
say hello, Hi Ryan, Yes, right, hi Emily bringing people together.
It's twenty sixteen, so Ryan, we might as well cut
to the chase. She enjoyed your first date, would love
a second date. She's feeling ghosted. I'm not accusing you
(23:13):
of anything, but like, did something go down? You've been busy?
What's up? Can we get a second date? I have
so many questions.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
Oh man, I don't know. I don't think so, I
don't think so. Okay, Emily, Yeah, the parts of the
date were great. I was very excited to do it,
to go on a date with her. She seemed very cool.
She is very cool. I thought we were very compatible.
But if oh god, this is so awkward. There was
(23:40):
just a lot of complaining and I about everything, like
when we got there, oh god, this is Ellie just
complained about the ants on the blankets, and then she
didn't want to be so close to the flowers. There
was a passer by a person who asked for directions
and she had snap at him but it wasn't polite.
(24:00):
And then you know, there's other people in the park
and at some point, I don't know, I don't even
remember what happened, but a dog came over and knocked
over some of our stuff, and she she really lost
it on the guys. She called him irresponsible, and it
was just very that. It was embarrassing. Emily, I'm really sorry.
It was just really embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Can I can I go back to something you said
that she complained about being too close to the flowers. Yeah,
and you're you went specifically to the conservatory of flowers.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
I'm not trying to think that hard about it, because
if I do, I don't know if i'll Yeah, okay,
I just said I feel bad. I don't want to
be dog pilot.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
But yeah, you're okay, Emily, Emily, you see how this
might be off putting. I mean not really.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
I don't understand what's wrong with like expecting like a
perfect picnic, Like we planned.
Speaker 6 (24:51):
It that way. Okay, yeah, we did, we did. I
think maybe we just might have different ideas as to
what perfect might mean. Not saying either one is right
or wrong, just maybe different ideas.
Speaker 7 (25:05):
I don't know. I just thought that everyone like wants
a flawless experience, like when I go out, I better
be spoiled. So I don't really see what's.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Wrong with that.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
Yeah, so I think he should be. I think he
should be. I just don't know if I'm the person
to do it with. And that's fine. And I don't
know how many perfect dates actually exist. I don't know,
but I hope that you.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Get to go on it. You're so glasses have Ryan,
not for you.
Speaker 6 (25:34):
No, it's good and that's not a bad thing. That's
a perfectly fine thing. Just I don't think it's meant to.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Be with it?
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Got it? Got it? Okay, hang on you too, Hang
on one second, Ryan, either, I just want to go
on record to say she sounds like a lot. Yeah.
I feel like you correctly dodged a bullet here. I'm
just going to put that out there anyway, there was
a lot, sure, Son, Sure, yeah, yeah, hang on, hang
(26:02):
on all right. Don't sit too close to the flowers
at the Conservatory of Flowers. Does you to have a
picnic by the flowers? That we're too close to the flowers?
Second date update, more variety from the two thousands, the nineties,
and today it's Star one on one three. It's Marcus
and Corey. We take you to the UK where a
new college course has popped off and it's helping gen
(26:22):
Z handle phone call anxiety. Okay, I need more information, Okay.
So it's teaching college students how to make and take
phone calls. Everybody texts now, but they're saying this.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
The text heavy habits make using the phone as an
actual phone a stress activity, so.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
They're trying to make it so that it's not as stressful.
This is a Nottingham college in the UK.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
It really has Texting has really trained us to not
be a social Because now when my phone actually ring,
it doesn't ring, it vibrates in my iWatch will vibrate.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
The first thing my head does is, uh, oh, who's
calling me? Hat? The gen z ers never actually use
the phone in a vocal way, but they probably don't
even know how to use landlines. And at first when
I heard the story, I was like, oh my god,
are you serious? But now I think about it and
I go, you know what, yeah, because it's a lost art.
The art of conversation is a lost art. Human contact,
(27:20):
human connection, human interaction is important in my opinion. I
just I prefer it face to face. I don't know
why I don't like talking on the phone. Basically I
talk so much in real life. Maybe, but I'd like
catching up with people on the phone. You're weirdo. Nobody
likes to take a call from me. I literally can
count on one hand the number of friends that I
(27:41):
can call that will pick up and chat. I will
pick up.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
When you call me because I'm worried that something's wrong.
I will pick up for you. I will pick up
for my husband, my dad, my sister, and my friend Kim.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
And That's about it. Can you imagine, though, if I
called you just a chat, Oh, I'd hang up. I'd
be like, what's up, what's going on? And then you say,
I just want to see what you're doing. What are
you guys up to? And then what you do? Hear
nothing because I'd be gone. So in England there is
a university that is teaching a course on how to
take and make phone calls. And if you're older, you
(28:13):
know your gen X or a boomer or whatever, you
might think this is strange, but I'm all for it.
If you think about the way that society has evolved
to the fact that we just aren't on the phone anymore.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Because it's not about teaching them how to do it.
It's about getting them comfortable with the phone call itself.
They call it telephonophobia telephone photo. Somebody made that up,
But it's about the stress of actually having a phone
conversation that they're just not used to.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Homework in this class consists of having to call a
restaurant and making a reservation. That's hard. Again, it's weird
for us because we grew up with the phone, but.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Now you've got all these apps like open table or
you go directly to the website and you make your
reservation there.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
So having to call and talk to somebody and ask
them to do something is weird for a certain generation.
I know, you have to expand your mind a little bit.
It's the same thing when your kid tells you they
want to be a YouTuber and you roll your eyes.
But that's an actual, legitimate gig. My niece wants to
be an influencer, probably just as hard. And like when
(29:13):
we came up talking about I want to be an actor, right,
the same kind of thing could be a big payday,
but it's not easy because it was.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Like it started with like reality shows and then it
morphed into social media.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Anyway, expand your mind, that's all I'm saying. My off
base here a college course to teach kids how to
make and take phone calls effective or nah. Leave us
a quick note on the talk back that little red
microphone on the iHeartRadio app. If you're streaming Star one

and then he ran off found a stranger got them

even have a cell phone. So she was you know,
she's screaming and no one could hear her. I don't
know a single doggy mom influencer that doesn't hold her
phone at all times. But you know, all right, maybe

Speaker 7 (33:00):
Hello.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Here's a cute term I hadn't heard before. A holiday hangover.
Am I the last person to know about a holiday hangover?
You know, you got to narrow it down. That could
be a lot of things. Okay, you're right, it's not
specifically alcohol. This is the feeling that you get after
the stress of the holidays are over, both the social
stress and the financial stress.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Oh so social, I can see, there's a lot of
obligations to go places to see people.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Right, and financially, maybe you spend a little bit too
much as a result of what they're calling a holiday hangover.
Half the people surveyed, and they surveyed over two thousand people.
They're planning to quote hibernate during January, be less active,
to spend less money because let's be honest, you were
just talking about Corey, about going to lunch with your
(33:48):
friend Kim yesterday, and just just operating is expensive. Because
how much was a glass of wine at the restaurant
you were at?
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Twenty two dollars and it wasn't even like a nice
fa ancy wine.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
It was in a can. So the way people are
saving money. Half the people say they're they're not going
to go anywhere. One third say they're not going to
necessarily travel. By not going anywhere, I mean not even
leave the house. Oh god, that sounds amazing. And a
(34:21):
lot of people do dry January because guess what, Liquor
is expensive. Yeah, even if you're like not even going
out to drink, like forget happy hours, not even on
the table these days.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
Now.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
God, we were at two restaurants and my wife loves
this new cocktail and again it was twenty three dollars. Yeah,
and I was like, I'll just I've become that we
have food at home guy.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
As much as I hate to say it, but yeah,
I'm like, why spend money when we can drink and
or eat at home.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
And for those of you in the dating pool, a
lot of people are saying they're just not going to
date and that they could save about five grand. You're
just by not dating.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
It's just the time where like people break up so
you don't have to worry about Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Yes, okay, January is god Es, this took a dark turn. Sorry.
January is the number one month for breakups divorces because
everybody wants to get through the holidays. But to your point,
they want it's a it's the shoulder season for relationships.
You're in between the holidays, that's over, but you're not
(35:28):
quite to Valentine's Day, so you better hurry so cutting run.
I was gonna say, if you're thinking about cutting and running,
this is the week now, it's the time jan nine.
I don't want to put it on anybody's calendar. I
don't want to stress you out. But because terrible stop talking.
Okay anyway yet holiday hangover. Half the people surveyed said, yeah,
(35:50):
I spent too much, I hate too much, and drank
too much and I hung out with people way too much. Yeah,
and now I'm just going to hide. I love it.
