Speaker 1 (00:00):
More variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today
it's a star one on one three, It's Marcus. It's
Monday morning. Back from the thanks Giving holiday, Producer Taylor
is here. It was really difficult to get back in
the swing. Oh yes, not tough to wake up this morning.
I'm not gonna lie. But for some reason, I was like, oh,
we're doing this again. Okay, we're good.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I know, gone from work for a week, and it's
like I forgot everything I ever knew.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Your outfit is giving me life today because you are
bundled up like an Eskimo.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
I am. I was not prepared for how cold it
would be getting back here.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Taylor went to Maui with her family. Oh yes, and
now here we are and it was forty six degrees
when I left the house this morning. It's so cold.
Do you need a parka?
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I know, right, I think I need to add more.
I'm still cold.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
You need some of those fingerless gloves and a beanie.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Have you ever asked or been asked what they're calling
the impossible interview question? Had some experts way in telling
you exactly how to answer it and get that job?
Producer Taylor is here, who incidentally just got hired. I
don't think I asked you this question. I think a
question and I asked you was, Hey, I really need
some help. You want to come hang out and have
some fun. Of course, isn't that what I said? Yes.
(01:09):
By the way, she's helping me out immensely since the transition. Obviously,
Corey's no longer here. It was layoffs about a month ago,
and I did not want to do this by myself.
So I heart you dearly. You can follow her, get
to know her. We love her. She's at tay Love
with to Ease on Instagram at any rate. The impossible
interview question is where do you see yourself in five years.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
That's a great question. I feel like I have clear
goals for growth, but I'm always open to where opportunities
will lead me.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
You're dodging the question, young lady.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I've not finished Marcus. In five years, I see myself
advancing into a role where I feel like I can
take on more leadership. I can take on bigger projects
that challenge me and hopefully contribute in a bigger way
this job specifically, I feel like going into the future,
I really want to grow as much as possible find
my footing, and I think the most important thing for
(01:58):
me is happiness and health. So making sure that I'm
just happy in the position that I'm in and I
feel like I'm succeeding.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Mm.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Flight risk. Oh gosh, what if I make you mad?
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I mean, that's a part of it, right, M.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
I don't know. I think you just talked yourself out
of the job. I'm not sure, Okay, So here's what
they say. I'm kidding, by the way, don't look at
it like that.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Give it me anxiety over here.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
So what they say is if you get asked the
question where do you see yourself in five years, A
lot of people will say I see myself married in
five years, or I see myself opening my own business
in five years. A lot of times employers will literally
see that as a flight risk. And here's what they
want to hear. They want to hear how you're going
to grow in their company at that job that they
(02:42):
are about to give you. So instead of focusing on
what they call personal milestones, focus on the next big
job with that company. The other trap that people fall
into is they will say in five years, I want
your job and that seems really like high end, but
it can be taken as being very eric. So instead
have a growth mindset. I want to take on more
(03:03):
direct reports. I want to take on bigger accounts. I
want to be your go to person four blank or
this would probably apply to you, Taylor. I want to
be speaking from a bigger stage. So there you go.
Next time you're in an interview, if someone says, where
do you see yourself in five years, you don't say
I'm going to be hanging out until you piss me off,
because that's what I just heard from Taylor five minutes ago. Anyway,
(03:26):
if you're a hiring manager, did this make sense? I
would love to know. You can check in on the
iHeartRadio app. It's that little red microphone if you're streaming
Star one on one three Right now, it's the holidays,
it's road trip time. I do love a good road trip,
so I want to know what your favorite road trip
of all time was. Please check in eight hundred, eight
hundred and one oh one three, where you can leave
a talk back on the iHeartRadio app to participate. Would
(03:46):
love to have me on the show this morning. I
was laughing because I was telling producer Taylor off Mike that, dude,
what's your favorite road trip? Couldn't you couldn't think of one?
And then she says the magic words. I usually just
fly everywhere, like, my god, it must be Dice, This
must be Dice. Where did you just come back from Malli? Yeah?
(04:06):
You can't road trip there?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Really?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
If I may suggest, they're just getting into the car
without a with a sketch plan is the best and
you don't know where you want to go. I've done
that a thousand times. My favorite, though, was the last
summer summer of twenty four, we flew out to the
East Coast. I'd never been out to the East Coast before,
and we ended up my daughter did a book report
(04:29):
on Burlington, Vermont, so we went to Burlington, Vermont. Well.
I woke up one morning, I was getting the itch
and I wanted to go somewhere, and I go, you guys,
we're ninety minutes from Montreal. Are we doing this? Everybody
saddled up, grabbed their passports, and we went into Canada.
Oh for the day. Was so good. Just ate our
way through the farmer's market and went downtown. I met
(04:51):
my favorite chef at my favorite restaurant in Canaday. Who
I used to watch on the Cooking Channel all the time,
Chuck Hughes, nicest guy in the world. What they don't
tell you about road tripping to Montreal is as soon
as you cross the border, everything turns into French.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Oh everything really.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
And and I learned my wife is no good at
the border. She panics, Oh no, it doesn't matter what
they ask her, ma'am, are you here for business or pleasure? Uh? Business, pleasure?
I don't know what do you mean. You don't know
us citizen, ma'am. We're not even there yet, ma'am. She
freaks out every time. Every' hilarious. Anyway, we get into
Canada and the just imagine, all of a sudden nothing
(05:31):
is in English. Now do you speak French?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
So like I'm driving. The only thing that saved my
bacon as I'm whizzing down the expressway at way too
fast speeds because kilometers was the fact that I had
Google Maps.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Oh thank god.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Google Maps is the greatest invention of our generation. It
is the greatest thing to happen to the road trip
since I don't even know what. Well, obviously we made
it out alive, but that was my favorite, So check
in on your favorite road trip of all time again
eight hundred eight hundred one O one three. Or conversely,
because Maggie's on the phone in Livermore, this was not
your favorite.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
It was not my favorite road trip. And now I
can never take a road trip with my dog.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Oh no, what happened?
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Yes, supposed to be a cool, romantic weekend down to
Santa Barbara. You know, no big deal. What is that about?
Five hours or so, maybe a little longer with a stop.
So get on the highway, headed down one oh one.
No big deal. And I'm thinking I don't want to
pay a dog sitter. We're staying at this cute little
like bed and breakfast. I'm going to bring my puck. Okay,
she can run around in the grass by the water.
(06:34):
It's going to be great. And I'm thinking she's gonna
love me.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Who doesn't love Santa Barbara? Even dogs?
Speaker 4 (06:39):
O mine, I learned does not like to ride in
the car, like at all, Like this is a non negotiable.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
This is where you tell me you learned it in
real time? Is that what you're gonna tell me.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
I pulled out of the house and she started like
acting a little like weird in her first road trip,
kind of a little bit of a whimper. But I thought, oh,
she'll calm down once I get on the highway. Once
I got on the highway, my dog started wailing, I know,
you know, murdered, started wailing in the back seat, started
like literally jumping, running back and forth from one side
(07:12):
of the car to the next, you know, back and forth,
like having the zuomies in the back seat. She was
like getting tangled in her little leash harness thing and
just wailing. So, of course, pull over, and I'm like,
she just needs to get out, get the mayor, just
take a little break. She'll be fine, get back in whaling.
Twenty minutes later, we'd like, pull over. Maybe she just
needs some treats. In the meantime, I'm trying to drive.
(07:33):
My boyfriend's trying to calm her down. It's a total
blank show, right, a complete dog poop show. And it's
just let's just say, like, what do you do. I'm
already now like an hour down the road. I'm not
going to turn around and go back. So five hours
of dog wailing to Santa Barbara.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
And stopping every twenty minutes.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Every twenty minutes pretty much, just to try to be like,
you're not gonna die. And then we got there and
I left her in the airbnb, you know, a little
bit and breakfast all week, and I mean we went outside.
I couldn't drive with her anywhere, left her there anytime
we went out. And then five hours of wailing to
come home.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Oh, poor, poor puppy. I know, don't they have like
doggy kludes or something or no? Am I crazy? No?
Speaker 4 (08:17):
If I want to give her that extreme I mean,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
I don't have a dog, so I'm probably speaking out
of school. That's awful.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
So a road trip I'd like to forget.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Sure, appreciate you sharing, all right again? Eight hundred eight
hundred one one three Favorite road trip or road trip fail?
Or Where should producer Taylor go for her road trip extravaganza? No, yeah,
it'd be great. This is what I'm talking about. It's
what's trending on start, what's happening in entertainment news, the
(08:47):
biggest stories of the day and everything people are talking
about today in the Bay stretch it out. Yeah, time
to open the chakras. Good morning, all right. The number
one story I think locally is going to be the
closure on Nineteenth Avenue. This is in San Francisco. There
is some planned construction going on, and you're gonna have
one lane traffic from Golden Gate Park to SF State,
(09:09):
both directions seven to three today. Am I getting any
of this information wrong? Taylor? You look this all up.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
No, you're spot on.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Great. Traffic will be diverted to Sunset Avenue and again
one lane open both directions during construction, which will be
daily from seven to three. Just be aware that's on
Nineteenth Avenue. Number one movie in America is Utopia. Two
pulled in five hundred and fifty six million dollars worldwide
since it opened last Wednesday. I'm pretty sure that producer
(09:37):
Taylor and I feel personally responsible for this.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Yes, it's a tear jerker.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I cried, She did cry. It's such a good movie too,
It really is. So we had Patrick Warburton, who plays
one of the characters. He voices the role of Mayor
wind Dancer. He was in studio promoting it a couple
of weeks ago. So again, that interview obviously put the
movie over the top. Oh yes, wor's the least ten
to fifty million between that movie, the Wicked movie, and Avatar.
(10:03):
Twenty twenty five said to be the biggest year for
movies since the pandemic. I'm here for it.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I'm here for it.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Humankind is back on the come up. Yes I like it.
If you want to see any of those interview pieces,
they are up on the Star one ONH one three FM, Instagram.
But yes, take the family, go see Utopia two. So good.
There's a reason it's number one this week. Our guy
has been confirmed to sing the national anthem at the
Super Bowl this year. Charlie Poof. I really like him.
(10:32):
Every time he comes to town, he visits the studio.
I can't say that's gonna happen this time around. I
don't know, but he's been here like three times. He's
the nicest guy in the world, and he's a musical genius.
He's one of those people that when he hears music,
he sees colors. Yeah, it's a phenomenal he does. So
what I want him to do during the Super Bowl.
I want him to do a thing where he like
(10:52):
loops his voice and makes beats and then sings over
that for the national anthem. That feels like a Charlie
poof move. Yeah, but anyway, it's gonna be Levi Stadium here.
We already know this. We have a pull up right
now on the Star one on one three FM Instagram
producer Tailor with the info.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Yes, it is National Pie Day today, so we're asking
which pie you are grabbing first? We want to know
is it the apple pie? Pumpkin pie? Do you like key,
lime or pecan?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah? A Lala berry for me?
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Okay, I like a pot pie? Does that count?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I might have to do that tonight. I got that
leftover turkey. By the way, today's the last day you
can take advantage of your leftovers. FYI technically now, I'm
a little dicey personally.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
I know.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I'll go like two more days, but clear out your fridge.
You're not supposed to be hitting those Thanksgiving leftovers much
after today. But I think tonight is going to be
turkey pot pie and then an Alala berry pie. Well,
see what happens. Let's see up on the Star one
oment one three fm Instagram our picks from the weekend.
I had a big holiday, so we did a cooking
class at syltab in Palo Alto. Let's see what else
(12:00):
did we do. My cousin was in town. I took
her all around half Moon Bay so I could stick
my toes in the ocean there in half Moon Bay.
That was fun. And then the best was Saturday night.
One of my top three bands of all time was
in town. So Andy Bell from Eraser came through and
played the Palace of Fine Arts.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Ooh exciting.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Took the whole family dressed up. I fully peacocked out
with my silver le made jacket.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Oh I saw on your story.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Uh and Taylor obviously dropping the flex on us because
she was in Maui with her family.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Yes, it was so much fun. We went on a
sunset cruise that was beautiful. I had the best shrimp
I've ever had in my life.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
You know it's good when you take a picture of
the shrimp.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Oh, yes, I had to. I had to show it
what It was so good. And then we did a
sunset selfie at the Luau on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Endurable cute family. You want to check them all out.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Star one oh one three FM up on Instagram right
now and that is what's trending. Second date update is
back from the weekend. We've got our guy David on
the phone David.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
This point everybody. He kind of knows how second date
update works. You went on a date. The lady's name
is Claire, and she ghosted, So we like to figure
out what happened. Specifically, I want to get you a
second date. But let's for a square one, like how
did you guys meet and then what did you do
for your date?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
So Claire and I met online and we did ramen
and cocktails at a place in San Mateo, and she
was amazing, smart, funny, total catch. We talked about everything,
our dogs or jobs and the best places and travel solo.
(13:36):
We had really good energy. Okay, and yeah, unfortunately she ghosted.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Okay, as I know you've replayed the date in your
head eighty seven times, you can't think of anything that
might have gone wrong.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
No, no, sir, okay, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Let's see if we can figure it out. We've got
our caller, David, and he was talking about his date
with Claire, and I do love, especially with the weather
as it is right now. David, good call, plus cocktails.
That's a total win. But she's ghosted, that's correct, unfortunately. Okay.
What I do like about this is and again, according
to you, you guys had real energy. So let's try
(14:14):
to figure this out. Go ahead and mut your phone.
We're gonna give her a call.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Okay, all right, sounds good.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Hello is this Claire?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (14:28):
This is she hy Claire. It's Marcus from Star one
one three? How are you?
Speaker 3 (14:33):
What?
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Not?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
What?
Speaker 1 (14:37):
There's that? There's always that momentary lull while I try
to figure out if you like my show or not.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
I love your show.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
You're amazing. Do you listen to a second you listen
to second Ight update? By chance?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
I do?
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Okay, have you been dating? Have you ghosted anybody recently?
I have so many questions?
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Well, you're calling me, so you aren't the answer to that.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Yes, So David is on the line, and we would
like to know what happened, because David, are you there?
I'm here, I mean spoiler alert, Claire. He really likes you.
I'm trying to back my guy up here. He said,
I wrote it down. He said you had real energy?
(15:26):
So is that is that in his head? Or is
that for real?
Speaker 4 (15:32):
Did he really say real energy? That sounds like something
a girl would way, Oh, like that's like Barbie movie lingko. Okay,
you know what I did have real energy, but there
were just like a few things and David, you're not
an idiot, Like I'm sure you're You're gonna know what
(15:53):
I'm going to say. Maybe not, I don't know, but
well you are because I pointed one thing out. First
of all, he came in where his earbuds, his bluetooth
earpiece on the state okay, and it was blinking blue
the whole darn time. And I did say something to
him about it, and he was like, oh, I'm sorry,
I just need to keep it in in case work calls.
(16:15):
They always call me after hours. I just have to
be on standby or whatever. But it literally kept blinking.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Like you could take a second.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Yeah, literally, And then at one point I was like, wait,
did I just have a stroke, Like what's happening? Like
he started talking about himself in the first person.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Give me an example.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
We went for ramen, So at one point we were
eating ramen and he just starts saying, David loves a
good bra and I'm like, does he can he take
out the bluetooth earpe relates that's just thing really okay?
So I was like super weird. Sure, And I just
felt like I was maybe hung up on those couple
(16:54):
of things. Okay, he just seemed kind of strange, even
though I thought it was too, He was kind of strange.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Is a good looking guy, though. I'm trying to see
if your dashing good looks will help you play through David.
But let's let's talk about this type for sure. Let's
unfold this a little bit. David, you do realize you
don't want to be you don't want to be wearing
anything that might divert your attention from the lady.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Yeah, I mean, I honestly forgot that it was even on,
and I can see how that would be annoying with
the flashing.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
What about literally referring to yourself from the third person
in actual conversation. That seems very strange to me.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
I was being funny and she didn't get my sense
of humor.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
I guess, Okay, what what is happening? So okay, let
me back it all the way up, because I've heard
the word energy and chemistry and Claire, what if now
that we have some self awareness, we can give my
guy a second shot. David, can you be less? I
don't even know, Claire, where are you at?
Speaker 4 (17:56):
Well? The chemistry was there. So when these things started happening,
it was like, oh man, you're low quirky David, but
you're cute at hell.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
I mean, well, thank Can.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
You leave the ear piece at home on our next
day and not negotiate the bill, just like, maybe, don't
even look at it, just put your card down.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I will have zero flashing lights on my person. Perfect.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
That's all anybody wants to hear. So Claire, Yes on
the second date.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Yes on the second date.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Yes, you guys, we haven't rang the cow bell in
so long it hurts my heart. The cowbell of destiny
has been wrung. We have a second date. Thank you, David,
Thank you. Claire made my whole week and it hasn't
even barely started. You guys are adorable. I'm gonna put
you on hold. Have you talk amongst yourselves? Okay, David
(18:44):
loves it. Stop Hey God, Hey God, don't move you
to so cute. This is the holidays that maybe you're
in a situation where you've been dating somebody long enough.
Now you're going to meet the family, and you have
a lot of uh, what's the word I'm looking for? Anxiety.
Here are some pro tips on how to win the
family over a couple of these things are not easy
(19:05):
because it basically says, be your authentic self, but not
that authentic. You gotta read the number one, read the room.
It says, right, I got producer Taylor with me, by
the way, she's helping me out behind the scenes quite
a bit.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Hello.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
You can meet her officially at Tay Love with two
E's on Instagram. But you said something funny to me
off the air. You said, we'll get into it in
just a second. I said, have you ever met your
boyfriend's parents, you know, when she's dating or whatever, And
she was like, yeah, they don't typically like me. I
don't know what's not to like. To be honest with you,
maybe I don't think I know your true self. I
think that's the problem. But what they do say is
(19:40):
number one, be yourself, but number two match their energy,
says this helps with anyone you're trying to impress, whether
it's your boyfriend's family or your new boss or anybody.
Match the vibe, reflect their energy. If they're reserved, you
be reserved. If they're over the top, get a little
over the top, but don't be performative. This is so hard.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
It is like be yourself, but actually change everything about you.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I saw this in real time over the holiday because
my cousin came to visit from Mexico City. We got
tickets to go see Billie Eilish. She is funny, but
she's reserved and I don't know her that well. Well,
my neighbors came over and they're horribly inappropriate. We sit
around it. This is what we do. Does anybody else
have these neighbors? You sit around, you drink, and then
you're just the worst jokes come out. So I literally
had to sit them down. Okay, you too, these are
(20:24):
grown ass adults. I was like, you, guys, my cousin's here.
You're going to be a mixed company. Please keep the
jokes as clean as possible. And I could physically see
in their faces when they wanted to crack jokes and
decided against it, like they would bite their lip, you know.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
And internal battle.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
The internal battle is real. So if you're trying to
impress your significant other's family, match the energy that's number one.
Unless you meet producer Taylor's mom. Her energy is not
to be matched. Oh yeah, she's she's her own thing.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
She is, she beats her own drums.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Number two on the list. Listen carefully active listening one
of the most important parts of communicating, so suggest this
expert says, A small head tilt, goes a long way
eye contact while the speaker is talking, shows your genuine interest.
That's an easy one. That's everybody pause before replying, half
a beat when somebody's done speaking, so you don't seem
(21:18):
like you're just waiting to talk. Okay, pause for half
of these are like just just life skills in general.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Right, this is what they teach you in communication classes.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Maintain good posture. The way you carry yourself can affect
your confidence and your anxiety levels. Stay grounded and at ease,
keep your back straight and your shoulders relaxed. Don't perform.
We've talked about we've covered that, be yourself. And then finally,
and this one has bit me in the butt more
than once. Use physical contact. Wisely, I'm a massive hugger.
(21:50):
There's nothing worse than meeting someone that's not a hugger.
And you didn't ask, you didn't get consent, you just
went in because you were excited. I had an ex
girlfriend and her family did not There was no physical
contact whatsoever. And I'm Mexican, so it takes like a
half hour to leave a function. Yes, if you don't
say goodbye to everybody and give kisses on the cheeks,
(22:11):
people get offended.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Oh yes, angry phone calls.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
But my ex like, literally we stood it through and
all right, but everybody goodbye, And I was like, that's it,
and I went in for a hug on her dad.
Oh God, awkward. He wanted to die and then I
wanted to die. Anyway, I think these are good how
to win your partner's family over the holidays. If you
have anything to add, I have one to add, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
I think that the best way to win people over
probably is to bring something. Don't come empty handed. Bring flowers,
bring a bottle of wine, Bring a good appetizer.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
What if it's a dry party and you bring a
bottle of wine? Now what?
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Okay? Well, Marcus, I just listened to three other things.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Any tips would be great. You can use the talk
back on the iHeartRadio app. It's that little red microphone
if you're streaming Star one on one three. Right now,
it's time for good news.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Sometimes all you need is one a good thought to
make it a great day. So let's do this. It's
good here on Star.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Super Late this morning. I apologize typically seven forty. I'll
be better next hour, but I love this story. I'll
keep it short. Her This girl's started a candle business.
She's a junior in high school. It literally is to
pay off school lunch debt. Her name's Ruby. She's a
high school junior in Austin, Texas. When she was in
(23:31):
the seventh grade, she saw one of her classmates get
a reduced meal because he didn't have any money left
in his lunch account. She learned about food insecurity. She
learned this situation is very common in her school district,
so she started a business called Lunchline Candles. Now you
order one and you get a note that explains that
every purchase of a candle provides a free school lunch
(23:52):
for a child in need in her area. She's trying
to expand, but she recently was able to present a
check to her middle school that was enough to pay
off the school's entire lunch debt. I think that is phenomenal. Again,
her name is Ruby. If you're interested, it's called Lunchline Candles.
I just thought that was really neat, So good on you. Ruby,
(24:12):
It's time to play the bas favorite trivia game is
called What You Know About That?

et cetera, et cetera, can pinpoint down to the scent
almost how much you're going to cost your company before
you die. How'd I do?
Speaker 3 (25:02):
You did? Great?
Speaker 4 (25:02):
And I'm guessing that's why you're not dating her anymore.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
She was boring as hell. You're great.

episode getting out of here. Appreciate you having me on
again this morning, wake up tomorrow morning. So many fun
things happening in Levi Stadium this year, between the Super Bowl,
I believe, the World Cup. I'm sure I'm missing something,
but Ed Sheeron's going to be here next July. We've
got your tickets tomorrow morning, right after seven, right after
(29:01):
eight thirty. Just be tuned in again. I love you
for doing that every morning. Super appreciated, but I want
to get you hooked up. Okay, Jillian's on the way
next with more star music for your workday. Let's all
keep warm together. I'll talk to you tomorrow morning.
More variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today
it's a star one on one three, It's Marcus. It's
Monday morning. Back from the thanks Giving holiday, Producer Taylor
is here. It was really difficult to get back in
the swing. Oh yes, not tough to wake up this morning.
I'm not gonna lie. But for some reason, I was like, oh,
we're doing this again. Okay, we're good.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I know, gone from work for a week, and it's
like I forgot everything I ever knew.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Your outfit is giving me life today because you are
bundled up like an Eskimo.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
I am. I was not prepared for how cold it
would be getting back here.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Taylor went to Maui with her family. Oh yes, and
now here we are and it was forty six degrees
when I left the house this morning. It's so cold.
Do you need a parka?
Speaker 2 (00:40):
I know, right, I think I need to add more.
I'm still cold.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
You need some of those fingerless gloves and a beanie.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Have you ever asked or been asked what they're calling
the impossible interview question? Had some experts way in telling
you exactly how to answer it and get that job?
Producer Taylor is here, who incidentally just got hired. I
don't think I asked you this question. I think a
question and I asked you was, Hey, I really need
some help. You want to come hang out and have
some fun. Of course, isn't that what I said? Yes.
(01:09):
By the way, she's helping me out immensely since the transition. Obviously,
Corey's no longer here. It was layoffs about a month ago,
and I did not want to do this by myself.
So I heart you dearly. You can follow her, get
to know her. We love her. She's at tay Love
with to Ease on Instagram at any rate. The impossible
interview question is where do you see yourself in five years.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
That's a great question. I feel like I have clear
goals for growth, but I'm always open to where opportunities
will lead me.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
You're dodging the question, young lady.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I've not finished Marcus. In five years, I see myself
advancing into a role where I feel like I can
take on more leadership. I can take on bigger projects
that challenge me and hopefully contribute in a bigger way
this job specifically, I feel like going into the future,
I really want to grow as much as possible find
my footing, and I think the most important thing for
(01:58):
me is happiness and health. So making sure that I'm
just happy in the position that I'm in and I
feel like I'm succeeding.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Mm.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Flight risk. Oh gosh, what if I make you mad?
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I mean, that's a part of it, right, M.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
I don't know. I think you just talked yourself out
of the job. I'm not sure, Okay, So here's what
they say. I'm kidding, by the way, don't look at
it like that.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Give it me anxiety over here.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
So what they say is if you get asked the
question where do you see yourself in five years, A
lot of people will say I see myself married in
five years, or I see myself opening my own business
in five years. A lot of times employers will literally
see that as a flight risk. And here's what they
want to hear. They want to hear how you're going
to grow in their company at that job that they
(02:42):
are about to give you. So instead of focusing on
what they call personal milestones, focus on the next big
job with that company. The other trap that people fall
into is they will say in five years, I want
your job and that seems really like high end, but
it can be taken as being very eric. So instead
have a growth mindset. I want to take on more
(03:03):
direct reports. I want to take on bigger accounts. I
want to be your go to person four blank or
this would probably apply to you, Taylor. I want to
be speaking from a bigger stage. So there you go.
Next time you're in an interview, if someone says, where
do you see yourself in five years, you don't say
I'm going to be hanging out until you piss me off,
because that's what I just heard from Taylor five minutes ago. Anyway,
(03:26):
if you're a hiring manager, did this make sense? I
would love to know. You can check in on the
iHeartRadio app. It's that little red microphone if you're streaming
Star one on one three Right now, it's the holidays,
it's road trip time. I do love a good road trip,
so I want to know what your favorite road trip
of all time was. Please check in eight hundred, eight
hundred and one oh one three, where you can leave
a talk back on the iHeartRadio app to participate. Would
(03:46):
love to have me on the show this morning. I
was laughing because I was telling producer Taylor off Mike that, dude,
what's your favorite road trip? Couldn't you couldn't think of one?
And then she says the magic words. I usually just
fly everywhere, like, my god, it must be Dice, This
must be Dice. Where did you just come back from Malli? Yeah?
(04:06):
You can't road trip there?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Really?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
If I may suggest, they're just getting into the car
without a with a sketch plan is the best and
you don't know where you want to go. I've done
that a thousand times. My favorite, though, was the last
summer summer of twenty four, we flew out to the
East Coast. I'd never been out to the East Coast before,
and we ended up my daughter did a book report
(04:29):
on Burlington, Vermont, so we went to Burlington, Vermont. Well.
I woke up one morning, I was getting the itch
and I wanted to go somewhere, and I go, you guys,
we're ninety minutes from Montreal. Are we doing this? Everybody
saddled up, grabbed their passports, and we went into Canada.
Oh for the day. Was so good. Just ate our
way through the farmer's market and went downtown. I met
(04:51):
my favorite chef at my favorite restaurant in Canaday. Who
I used to watch on the Cooking Channel all the time,
Chuck Hughes, nicest guy in the world. What they don't
tell you about road tripping to Montreal is as soon
as you cross the border, everything turns into French.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Oh everything really.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
And and I learned my wife is no good at
the border. She panics, Oh no, it doesn't matter what
they ask her, ma'am, are you here for business or pleasure? Uh? Business, pleasure?
I don't know what do you mean. You don't know
us citizen, ma'am. We're not even there yet, ma'am. She
freaks out every time. Every' hilarious. Anyway, we get into
Canada and the just imagine, all of a sudden nothing
(05:31):
is in English. Now do you speak French?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
So like I'm driving. The only thing that saved my
bacon as I'm whizzing down the expressway at way too
fast speeds because kilometers was the fact that I had
Google Maps.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Oh thank god.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Google Maps is the greatest invention of our generation. It
is the greatest thing to happen to the road trip
since I don't even know what. Well, obviously we made
it out alive, but that was my favorite, So check
in on your favorite road trip of all time again
eight hundred eight hundred one O one three. Or conversely,
because Maggie's on the phone in Livermore, this was not
your favorite.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
It was not my favorite road trip. And now I
can never take a road trip with my dog.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Oh no, what happened?
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Yes, supposed to be a cool, romantic weekend down to
Santa Barbara. You know, no big deal. What is that about?
Five hours or so, maybe a little longer with a stop.
So get on the highway, headed down one oh one.
No big deal. And I'm thinking I don't want to
pay a dog sitter. We're staying at this cute little
like bed and breakfast. I'm going to bring my puck. Okay,
she can run around in the grass by the water.
(06:34):
It's going to be great. And I'm thinking she's gonna
love me.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Who doesn't love Santa Barbara? Even dogs?
Speaker 4 (06:39):
O mine, I learned does not like to ride in
the car, like at all, Like this is a non negotiable.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
This is where you tell me you learned it in
real time? Is that what you're gonna tell me.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
I pulled out of the house and she started like
acting a little like weird in her first road trip,
kind of a little bit of a whimper. But I thought, oh,
she'll calm down once I get on the highway. Once
I got on the highway, my dog started wailing, I know,
you know, murdered, started wailing in the back seat, started
like literally jumping, running back and forth from one side
(07:12):
of the car to the next, you know, back and forth,
like having the zuomies in the back seat. She was
like getting tangled in her little leash harness thing and
just wailing. So, of course, pull over, and I'm like,
she just needs to get out, get the mayor, just
take a little break. She'll be fine, get back in whaling.
Twenty minutes later, we'd like, pull over. Maybe she just
needs some treats. In the meantime, I'm trying to drive.
(07:33):
My boyfriend's trying to calm her down. It's a total
blank show, right, a complete dog poop show. And it's
just let's just say, like, what do you do. I'm
already now like an hour down the road. I'm not
going to turn around and go back. So five hours
of dog wailing to Santa Barbara.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
And stopping every twenty minutes.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Every twenty minutes pretty much, just to try to be like,
you're not gonna die. And then we got there and
I left her in the airbnb, you know, a little
bit and breakfast all week, and I mean we went outside.
I couldn't drive with her anywhere, left her there anytime
we went out. And then five hours of wailing to
come home.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
Oh, poor, poor puppy. I know, don't they have like
doggy kludes or something or no? Am I crazy? No?
Speaker 4 (08:17):
If I want to give her that extreme I mean,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
I don't have a dog, so I'm probably speaking out
of school. That's awful.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
So a road trip I'd like to forget.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Sure, appreciate you sharing, all right again? Eight hundred eight
hundred one one three Favorite road trip or road trip fail?
Or Where should producer Taylor go for her road trip extravaganza? No, yeah,
it'd be great. This is what I'm talking about. It's
what's trending on start, what's happening in entertainment news, the
(08:47):
biggest stories of the day and everything people are talking
about today in the Bay stretch it out. Yeah, time
to open the chakras. Good morning, all right. The number
one story I think locally is going to be the
closure on Nineteenth Avenue. This is in San Francisco. There
is some planned construction going on, and you're gonna have
one lane traffic from Golden Gate Park to SF State,
(09:09):
both directions seven to three today. Am I getting any
of this information wrong? Taylor? You look this all up.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
No, you're spot on.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Great. Traffic will be diverted to Sunset Avenue and again
one lane open both directions during construction, which will be
daily from seven to three. Just be aware that's on
Nineteenth Avenue. Number one movie in America is Utopia. Two
pulled in five hundred and fifty six million dollars worldwide
since it opened last Wednesday. I'm pretty sure that producer
(09:37):
Taylor and I feel personally responsible for this.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Yes, it's a tear jerker.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I cried, She did cry. It's such a good movie too,
It really is. So we had Patrick Warburton, who plays
one of the characters. He voices the role of Mayor
wind Dancer. He was in studio promoting it a couple
of weeks ago. So again, that interview obviously put the
movie over the top. Oh yes, wor's the least ten
to fifty million between that movie, the Wicked movie, and Avatar.
(10:03):
Twenty twenty five said to be the biggest year for
movies since the pandemic. I'm here for it.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I'm here for it.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Humankind is back on the come up. Yes I like it.
If you want to see any of those interview pieces,
they are up on the Star one ONH one three FM, Instagram.
But yes, take the family, go see Utopia two. So good.
There's a reason it's number one this week. Our guy
has been confirmed to sing the national anthem at the
Super Bowl this year. Charlie Poof. I really like him.
(10:32):
Every time he comes to town, he visits the studio.
I can't say that's gonna happen this time around. I
don't know, but he's been here like three times. He's
the nicest guy in the world, and he's a musical genius.
He's one of those people that when he hears music,
he sees colors. Yeah, it's a phenomenal he does. So
what I want him to do during the Super Bowl.
I want him to do a thing where he like
(10:52):
loops his voice and makes beats and then sings over
that for the national anthem. That feels like a Charlie
poof move. Yeah, but anyway, it's gonna be Levi Stadium here.
We already know this. We have a pull up right
now on the Star one on one three FM Instagram
producer Tailor with the info.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Yes, it is National Pie Day today, so we're asking
which pie you are grabbing first? We want to know
is it the apple pie? Pumpkin pie? Do you like key,
lime or pecan?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Yeah? A Lala berry for me?
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Okay, I like a pot pie? Does that count?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
I might have to do that tonight. I got that
leftover turkey. By the way, today's the last day you
can take advantage of your leftovers. FYI technically now, I'm
a little dicey personally.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
I know.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
I'll go like two more days, but clear out your fridge.
You're not supposed to be hitting those Thanksgiving leftovers much
after today. But I think tonight is going to be
turkey pot pie and then an Alala berry pie. Well,
see what happens. Let's see up on the Star one
oment one three fm Instagram our picks from the weekend.
I had a big holiday, so we did a cooking
class at syltab in Palo Alto. Let's see what else
(12:00):
did we do. My cousin was in town. I took
her all around half Moon Bay so I could stick
my toes in the ocean there in half Moon Bay.
That was fun. And then the best was Saturday night.
One of my top three bands of all time was
in town. So Andy Bell from Eraser came through and
played the Palace of Fine Arts.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Ooh exciting.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Took the whole family dressed up. I fully peacocked out
with my silver le made jacket.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Oh I saw on your story.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Uh and Taylor obviously dropping the flex on us because
she was in Maui with her family.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Yes, it was so much fun. We went on a
sunset cruise that was beautiful. I had the best shrimp
I've ever had in my life.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
You know it's good when you take a picture of
the shrimp.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Oh, yes, I had to. I had to show it
what It was so good. And then we did a
sunset selfie at the Luau on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Endurable cute family. You want to check them all out.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Star one oh one three FM up on Instagram right
now and that is what's trending. Second date update is
back from the weekend. We've got our guy David on
the phone David.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
This point everybody. He kind of knows how second date
update works. You went on a date. The lady's name
is Claire, and she ghosted, So we like to figure
out what happened. Specifically, I want to get you a
second date. But let's for a square one, like how
did you guys meet and then what did you do
for your date?
Speaker 3 (13:16):
So Claire and I met online and we did ramen
and cocktails at a place in San Mateo, and she
was amazing, smart, funny, total catch. We talked about everything,
our dogs or jobs and the best places and travel solo.
(13:36):
We had really good energy. Okay, and yeah, unfortunately she ghosted.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Okay, as I know you've replayed the date in your
head eighty seven times, you can't think of anything that
might have gone wrong.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
No, no, sir, okay, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Let's see if we can figure it out. We've got
our caller, David, and he was talking about his date
with Claire, and I do love, especially with the weather
as it is right now. David, good call, plus cocktails.
That's a total win. But she's ghosted, that's correct, unfortunately. Okay.
What I do like about this is and again, according
to you, you guys had real energy. So let's try
(14:14):
to figure this out. Go ahead and mut your phone.
We're gonna give her a call.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Okay, all right, sounds good.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Hello is this Claire?
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (14:28):
This is she hy Claire. It's Marcus from Star one
one three? How are you?
Speaker 3 (14:33):
What?
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Not?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
What?
Speaker 1 (14:37):
There's that? There's always that momentary lull while I try
to figure out if you like my show or not.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
I love your show.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
You're amazing. Do you listen to a second you listen
to second Ight update? By chance?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
I do?
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Okay, have you been dating? Have you ghosted anybody recently?
I have so many questions?
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Well, you're calling me, so you aren't the answer to that.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Yes, So David is on the line, and we would
like to know what happened, because David, are you there?
I'm here, I mean spoiler alert, Claire. He really likes you.
I'm trying to back my guy up here. He said,
I wrote it down. He said you had real energy?
(15:26):
So is that is that in his head? Or is
that for real?
Speaker 4 (15:32):
Did he really say real energy? That sounds like something
a girl would way, Oh, like that's like Barbie movie lingko. Okay,
you know what I did have real energy, but there
were just like a few things and David, you're not
an idiot, Like I'm sure you're You're gonna know what
(15:53):
I'm going to say. Maybe not, I don't know, but
well you are because I pointed one thing out. First
of all, he came in where his earbuds, his bluetooth
earpiece on the state okay, and it was blinking blue
the whole darn time. And I did say something to
him about it, and he was like, oh, I'm sorry,
I just need to keep it in in case work calls.
(16:15):
They always call me after hours. I just have to
be on standby or whatever. But it literally kept blinking.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Like you could take a second.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Yeah, literally, And then at one point I was like, wait,
did I just have a stroke, Like what's happening? Like
he started talking about himself in the first person.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Give me an example.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
We went for ramen, So at one point we were
eating ramen and he just starts saying, David loves a
good bra and I'm like, does he can he take
out the bluetooth earpe relates that's just thing really okay?
So I was like super weird. Sure, And I just
felt like I was maybe hung up on those couple
(16:54):
of things. Okay, he just seemed kind of strange, even
though I thought it was too, He was kind of strange.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Is a good looking guy, though. I'm trying to see
if your dashing good looks will help you play through David.
But let's let's talk about this type for sure. Let's
unfold this a little bit. David, you do realize you
don't want to be you don't want to be wearing
anything that might divert your attention from the lady.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Yeah, I mean, I honestly forgot that it was even on,
and I can see how that would be annoying with
the flashing.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
What about literally referring to yourself from the third person
in actual conversation. That seems very strange to me.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
I was being funny and she didn't get my sense
of humor.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
I guess, Okay, what what is happening? So okay, let
me back it all the way up, because I've heard
the word energy and chemistry and Claire, what if now
that we have some self awareness, we can give my
guy a second shot. David, can you be less? I
don't even know, Claire, where are you at?
Speaker 4 (17:56):
Well? The chemistry was there. So when these things started happening,
it was like, oh man, you're low quirky David, but
you're cute at hell.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
I mean, well, thank Can.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
You leave the ear piece at home on our next
day and not negotiate the bill, just like, maybe, don't
even look at it, just put your card down.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I will have zero flashing lights on my person. Perfect.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
That's all anybody wants to hear. So Claire, Yes on
the second date.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
Yes on the second date.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Yes, you guys, we haven't rang the cow bell in
so long it hurts my heart. The cowbell of destiny
has been wrung. We have a second date. Thank you, David,
Thank you. Claire made my whole week and it hasn't
even barely started. You guys are adorable. I'm gonna put
you on hold. Have you talk amongst yourselves? Okay, David
(18:44):
loves it. Stop Hey God, Hey God, don't move you
to so cute. This is the holidays that maybe you're
in a situation where you've been dating somebody long enough.
Now you're going to meet the family, and you have
a lot of uh, what's the word I'm looking for? Anxiety.
Here are some pro tips on how to win the
family over a couple of these things are not easy
(19:05):
because it basically says, be your authentic self, but not
that authentic. You gotta read the number one, read the room.
It says, right, I got producer Taylor with me, by
the way, she's helping me out behind the scenes quite
a bit.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Hello.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
You can meet her officially at Tay Love with two
E's on Instagram. But you said something funny to me
off the air. You said, we'll get into it in
just a second. I said, have you ever met your
boyfriend's parents, you know, when she's dating or whatever, And
she was like, yeah, they don't typically like me. I
don't know what's not to like. To be honest with you,
maybe I don't think I know your true self. I
think that's the problem. But what they do say is
(19:40):
number one, be yourself, but number two match their energy,
says this helps with anyone you're trying to impress, whether
it's your boyfriend's family or your new boss or anybody.
Match the vibe, reflect their energy. If they're reserved, you
be reserved. If they're over the top, get a little
over the top, but don't be performative. This is so hard.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
It is like be yourself, but actually change everything about you.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I saw this in real time over the holiday because
my cousin came to visit from Mexico City. We got
tickets to go see Billie Eilish. She is funny, but
she's reserved and I don't know her that well. Well,
my neighbors came over and they're horribly inappropriate. We sit
around it. This is what we do. Does anybody else
have these neighbors? You sit around, you drink, and then
you're just the worst jokes come out. So I literally
had to sit them down. Okay, you too, these are
(20:24):
grown ass adults. I was like, you, guys, my cousin's here.
You're going to be a mixed company. Please keep the
jokes as clean as possible. And I could physically see
in their faces when they wanted to crack jokes and
decided against it, like they would bite their lip, you know.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
And internal battle.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
The internal battle is real. So if you're trying to
impress your significant other's family, match the energy that's number one.
Unless you meet producer Taylor's mom. Her energy is not
to be matched. Oh yeah, she's she's her own thing.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
She is, she beats her own drums.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Number two on the list. Listen carefully active listening one
of the most important parts of communicating, so suggest this
expert says, A small head tilt, goes a long way
eye contact while the speaker is talking, shows your genuine interest.
That's an easy one. That's everybody pause before replying, half
a beat when somebody's done speaking, so you don't seem
(21:18):
like you're just waiting to talk. Okay, pause for half
of these are like just just life skills in general.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
Right, this is what they teach you in communication classes.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Maintain good posture. The way you carry yourself can affect
your confidence and your anxiety levels. Stay grounded and at ease,
keep your back straight and your shoulders relaxed. Don't perform.
We've talked about we've covered that, be yourself. And then finally,
and this one has bit me in the butt more
than once. Use physical contact. Wisely, I'm a massive hugger.
(21:50):
There's nothing worse than meeting someone that's not a hugger.
And you didn't ask, you didn't get consent, you just
went in because you were excited. I had an ex
girlfriend and her family did not There was no physical
contact whatsoever. And I'm Mexican, so it takes like a
half hour to leave a function. Yes, if you don't
say goodbye to everybody and give kisses on the cheeks,
(22:11):
people get offended.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
Oh yes, angry phone calls.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
But my ex like, literally we stood it through and
all right, but everybody goodbye, And I was like, that's it,
and I went in for a hug on her dad.
Oh God, awkward. He wanted to die and then I
wanted to die. Anyway, I think these are good how
to win your partner's family over the holidays. If you
have anything to add, I have one to add, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
I think that the best way to win people over
probably is to bring something. Don't come empty handed. Bring flowers,
bring a bottle of wine, Bring a good appetizer.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
What if it's a dry party and you bring a
bottle of wine? Now what?
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Okay? Well, Marcus, I just listened to three other things.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Any tips would be great. You can use the talk
back on the iHeartRadio app. It's that little red microphone
if you're streaming Star one on one three. Right now,
it's time for good news.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Sometimes all you need is one a good thought to
make it a great day. So let's do this. It's
good here on Star.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Super Late this morning. I apologize typically seven forty. I'll
be better next hour, but I love this story. I'll
keep it short. Her This girl's started a candle business.
She's a junior in high school. It literally is to
pay off school lunch debt. Her name's Ruby. She's a
high school junior in Austin, Texas. When she was in
(23:31):
the seventh grade, she saw one of her classmates get
a reduced meal because he didn't have any money left
in his lunch account. She learned about food insecurity. She
learned this situation is very common in her school district,
so she started a business called Lunchline Candles. Now you
order one and you get a note that explains that
every purchase of a candle provides a free school lunch
(23:52):
for a child in need in her area. She's trying
to expand, but she recently was able to present a
check to her middle school that was enough to pay
off the school's entire lunch debt. I think that is phenomenal. Again,
her name is Ruby. If you're interested, it's called Lunchline Candles.
I just thought that was really neat, So good on you. Ruby,
(24:12):
It's time to play the bas favorite trivia game is

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
