The "Boomer Habits" Younger Gens Started Doing Because They Realized They're Genius:
Millennials and Gen Z might poke fun at “boomer habits,” but some of them are pure genius. From heated blankets to early dinners and comfy pants, we dive into the old-school habits the younger gens swear by.
How To Keep Your Spirits & Brain Bright This Holiday Season:
The holidays can be tough, so we’re sharing six brain-boosting tips from neurologist Dr. Joel Salinas to help you feel brighter—like picking up a new hobby, moving your body, and staying connected in whatever way you can.
What's Trending:
We cover everything from K-pop Demon Hunters accolades to a Waymo birth, Gaga concert drama, property tax deadlines, National Lager Day, and the latest Powerball excitement. It’s a little news, a little weird, and a lot to talk about.
Second Date Update:
Shawn met Isabelle on Match and took her to a Thai place in Berkeley for date number one. He says she was cute, grounded, and had that contagious, full-body kind of laugh. They bonded over their dogs, favorite cooking shows, and horror-story dates from their past. Shawn thinks he crushed it… and now he wants to know what happened to her.
Wardrobe Drama:
Things got interesting fast when Marcus walked in wearing a shirt Taylor’s ex practically lived in. Cue the debate: should Taylor buy Marcus a new shirt?
Good News:
We break down the story behind the “29-year-old grad behind the landline phone.” Stanford grad Catherine Goetze is reviving retro tech with Bluetooth landline-style phones that help people unplug. Gen Z and Gen Alpha are buying them up—and thousands of units later, the analog comeback is real.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
More variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today
it's Star one on one three. It's Marcus right before
six o'clock Wednesday day. Good morning, everyone, Good morning. He's
got producer Taylor in the studio because I have just
received some terrible news. Apparently the shirt I am wearing
is giving you PTSD. That's all she told me. Now
you have to tell me why.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
That was my ex boyfriend's shirt. Okay, he had the
same one, and it's bringing a lot of memories back
for me. Right now, I might need you to change.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
It's not how I wanted to start my.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Morning, you know me, neither, Marcus, me neither.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I was liking you until I took my jacket off
and she went, oh no, oh, no, Lucky Brand. It's
the Lucky Brand shirt with the with the playing card
King on it. Now now it's just I'm just nothing
but a memory.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Just to burn it great, I'm gonna go change my shirt,
all right.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
What do we have given on the way this morning?
We have more tickets for the Exploratorium. They have the
coolest thing going on for the holidays. It's the Art
of Life this winter with glow luminous artworks inviting you
to connect, play and get inspired. So we'll have those
at eight oh five, with the trivia game on the way. Next,
talking about boomer habits that the younger generations have started
(01:13):
doing because they're genius. This is a sign for your
kids to start listening to you. Finally, are these legit habits?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Taylor's basically an old person in a young person's body.
So if you want to follow her online at Taylove
with two Eyes, you can follow me at It's Marcus D.
We will discuss next at six fifteen. Keep it here.
I want to see where you're at with this, these
boomer habits that the younger generations have started doing because
they've realized their genius. I'm sorry, do the older generations
know what they're talking about? Is that what you're telling me?
(01:44):
Is that what's happening. I don't like to call them
boomer habits, not that I'm a boomer, I'm a gen xer,
but it makes me feel old. So physically I'm fifty two.
Mentally well, emotionally I'm about twenty seven. Mentally I'm about nine.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Is that fair?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Yeah, that's a fair assessment.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Producer Taylor is here or she's the one that found
this article. I love it, and you are basically an
old person trapped in a young lady's body.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
To be fair, yes this is true.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
So let me give you some examples off this list.
Someone said, going to a nice restaurant and eating at
the reasonable hour of four thirty PM for dinner. I
turn on close captioning on anything I watch on TV. Well, yeah,
is this your vibe?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
I always have the closed captions on and it's funny
because my parents get.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Mad about it. Your parents get me.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Right, I'm like, you're wearing glasses just to even watch
this show. You might need them more than me. For me,
it's daily walks, okay, going on just a little walk
at the blood flowing That feels so good to kind
of get connected with nature.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
I gotta tell you. With somebody with the diabetes, it's
so good for regulating your blood sugar. Like I've seen
it in real time. I have literally had the little
censor in my arm and watch my blood sugar drop
like twenty points just after about fifteen minutes. Pro tip,
if you go over thirty minutes, your body starts stressing out,
and that is not good for your blood sugar. Your
(02:59):
fight or Flight kicks in to thirty minutes. Just FYI
get out check in on this if you don't mind.
Eight hundred eight hundred and one oh one three. I've
got Melanie on holding Walner Creek. Give me one of
your old people habits, I mean marguts. I've got all
the people cut all of them, gets up early, goes
to bed early.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I need Hella snacks like But I think my favorite
old person story is how I can no longer twork
because I threw my back out the.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Last time.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
I had to go to the chiropractor to get fixed.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
You were dropping it a little too low, a little
too often, making it Oh my god, I did not
have that. It's a little early for twerk talk. I'm
not gonna lie it's a little early.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
I apologize.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I'm keeping it real here.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
It's tough being an og battye am I right right,
absolutely all right. Thank you for the call. Throwing your
back out wall tworking. That is a visual I will
carry with me for the rest of the day. Again,
the number eight hundred eight hundred one one three or
the talkback is open as always could be part of
the show. Hit the Little Red microphone on the iHeartRadio app.
If you're streaming Star one on one three right now,
you can leave a thirty second message it's Star one
(04:10):
oh one three. This is something we were talking about yesterday,
but it bears repeating because I love all this info.
With the holidays coming in hot, a lot of us
going to see family. But what if you're not, What
if you're truly alone? What can you do to keep
your brain active and keep yourself in a good space.
This neurologist checked in with like six things that I
love and I want to thank producer Taylor good Morning
(04:31):
for bringing these to my attention. Side note, she's been
super helpful behind the scenes. We love her. You should
meet her at Tay Love with two E's on Instagram
if you want to drop her a follow right now.
All right, things you can do to stay sane if
you're alone during the holidays. Number one, I'm starting with,
get your groove on private dance party in the living
room for the win. Can I tell you, when I
(04:52):
was talking about it yesterday how much my life changed
over the weekend when I discovered that the new Apple
update allows you to use your your iPhone microphone is
now your karaoke microphone on your Apple TV. Plus, I'm
never gonna leave the house again.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
It's over.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
I don't need to talk to anybody ever again. I'm
just doing backstree boys in the living room all day.
I love it. Over the weekend, my girls were at
their holiday tea with their friends and I literally was
just I had band practice and I can't share any
of the videos on the nestcams because I was in
my long underwear and nothing else running around in the
living room like a maniac. There's a visual for you. You're welcome,
sorry to everybody having breakfast right now. So private dance
(05:29):
party gets the brain going, definitely mind boosting. I'm gonna
lump these other two together. Start a hobby, work on
a puzzle. Now you're the hobby Queen Taylor. How many
hobbies do you have? Give me like three, one hundred counting.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
But I love to crochet, I love to paint, I
love to draw.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
And you go all in right, Oh yeah, when you
start a hobby, you're like all the stuff. Oh yeah,
give me all the things, all right. We're talking about
things you can do if you're alone for the holidays.
Embrace technology to connect I'm not a big fan of
the zoom happy hour, but if that's all you got,
that's better than nothing. Find like minded people overall, stay active,
find creative ways to get your steps in. See also
(06:07):
band practice in the living room in your long underwear.
There's that visual again. You're welcome if you roll solo
and you've got some ideas, let us know. This is
a perfect talkback moment. It's the little red microphone on
the iHeartRadio app. If you're streaming Star one on one
three right now. Also keep the number handy eight hundred
eight hundred one on one three. You can always check
in what I'm talking about. It's what's trending on Star
(06:30):
one one.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Three, what's happening in entertainment news, the biggest stories of
the day, and everything people are talking about today in
the Bay.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Before we get to the fun stuff, a little bit
of adulting. And I'm sorry to have to say this,
but if you are a homeowner in the Bay, your
property taxes are due today. No fyi, I've paid my
late last night. After today must be postmarked by five
o'clock otherwise you get the penalty. Okay, just fyi, Okay,
onto the fun stuff. Let's start with K Pop Demon Hunters,
(06:59):
because that's where I like to start. The song gives
me life. Apparently everybody else too, as K Pop Demon
Hunters has been named Times Breakthrough of the Year, becoming
a massive global hit on Netflix, featuring this song Golden,
which I play in the bathroom during my affirmations every morning.
(07:20):
That was too much info. I just gonna let it
play out a little bit. God, I love it so
so good? What a great I mean, how many times
have we seen this movie Netflix over and over on repeat?
Speaker 3 (07:33):
All? Right?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
What else is going on that? Australian influencer Jonathan Wen,
who is known as Pajama Man, who routinely will bum
rush celebrities like Ariana Grande, Katie Perry and others just
to get the selfie, just so he can post, just
to be a troll, got kicked out of a Lady
Gaga concert in Brisbane, Australia before it even started. Worry
(07:53):
about that, I guess. I guess if you post on
the Internet, people can see it, including like security and
police and stuff. Right, and they frowned on bum rushing people.
I guess. I guess that's the deal. Yeah, I guess,
so he got escorted out. Everybody was going just being
imagine being blued by an entire stadium for being a troll.
(08:14):
I'm here for it. Why is he not in jail?
I thought he was going to jail.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I think he was only in jail for a couple
of days.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Oh no, yeah, all right. And then the other big
story here locally is the lady here in the city
who gave birth insight of a Weymo while on the
way to the hospital. So she called the Weimo because
you know, water broke. She was on her way. Waimo's
support team noticed something was wrong, checked in, called nine
to one one. The Robotaxi beat the emergency cruise two
(08:44):
UCSF Medical Center right down the street here from the
radio station. Mom and baby are fine.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Oh thank god.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I love and and you know they now security. I'm
not security, but emergency protocols are in place with the car.
It's going to go out of service for a little bit,
but it'll be back on the road. Let's see Powerball
jackpot has jumped to nine hundred and thirty million dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Oh my goodness knows.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
By the way, you know the rule on this show.
Producer Taylor is here. She's new. She's been helping me
out behind the scenes backstage. Love her to death. In fact,
drop her a follow on Instagram while I'm thinking about it,
Please at Taylove to East. The rule on the show is,
if you win the jackpod, I have to you have
to break me off ten mil and I will reciprocate.
Is that the rule? That's the rule?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
I'm just being informed buff this now?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Speaking of the star one on one three fm Instagram,
we have a poll up. What is our poll for today?
In the stories?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yes, it is National lagger Day, so we want to
know what is the best food pairing with a logger?
Do you like a burger, a pizza, wings, or are
you gonna pair it with just about anything?
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
I thought, I'm so dub I thought we were shouting
out people that cut trees down.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Like it's Marcus and we are back with second date update.
Let me explain how it works. So you go on
a first date, you get ghosted, you call me, We
get your date on the phone and with you listening
in and try to figure out if something went wrong
or if we can grab a second date. Sometimes it's
a misunderstanding. So let's say good morning to Sean. Sean, Hello, Hey,
good morning, Hey man, I want to hear all about Isabelle.
(10:14):
So let's start with, like, how you guys met and
then tell me what you did on your first date.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
Well, we met on matched and that was great. Everything
was really great there. We met up for dinner. We
went to a Thai restaurant, which again really great. I
thought everything was going well. Man, she's incredibly cute. She
just seemed like this is gonna sound corny, but she
seemed like real. She seemed grounded. You know, she did
that thing where when somebody laughs, they laughed with.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Their whole body. Yeah that was her.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
Yeah, that was her. We kind of clicked. I thought.
We talked about we love both of dogs. We both
are joking that were dog parents, some of our favorite shows.
We both love cooking shows. We talked about the worst
dates we'd bet on. So I thought everything was good.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
That's funny because I just took a cooking class last
week and it was thy food. I think this is fate, Sean,
I really do. We're cosmically here together. So okay, just
to recap, though she has ghosted.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
Yeah, yeah, I guess you could say that.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Yes, okay, we're doing second date update. I've got Sean
on the phone. We've been chatting. So he went out
with Isabelle after meeting on match. They went to Berkeley
for some ty food. Great first date, super cute. And
you said she laughs with her whole body? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (11:28):
The shoulders, neck, stomach, like, the whole laugh. It's great.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
All right, let's call her, try to figure out because
I know she's ghosteds. Go ahead and meet your phone.
We're gonna give her a shout right now, okay, all right,
thank you. Hello, Hi, I'm looking for Isabelle. She available.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
This is Isabelle.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Isabelle Hyatt's Marcus from Star one oh one three. How
are you? Good morning?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Hey, do you listen in the morning?
Speaker 3 (12:01):
Yeah, I definitely do. I do. I know who you are.
I know second date update?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Great?
Speaker 3 (12:07):
So that means somebody's on the phone. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Well you're ready to go? Huh?
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Yeah, I already know. I know, all right, right.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Right, Yes, I've got Sean on the phone. Are you
okay if I bring him on and talk about your date?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I mean might as well.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
We're already We're already here.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
We're here Sean Isabelle. Obviously, Sean would love to take
you out again, and he enjoyed your first date. So
did you ghost and if so, we'd like to know
what happened.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Yeah, I mean, yes I did. I don't normally do that.
But look, he's not son, You're not a bad guy.
I just felt like things were super awkward.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Okay, why we sit down.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
And we order something to drink and he tells the
server like right away, Hey, this is a big deal.
I don't go on many dates, and so can we, like,
you know, have some kind of thing to celebrate this date.
It was just kind of awkward. I just kind of
let it go because, yeah, like it's the first date.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Who doesn't like to be l Yeah, I don't know
it was.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
I wasn't expecting it.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
So this is where you tell me there's more.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Yeah, definitely there was more. So okay we start just
he asked me like, what was the worst date I've
ever been on? So I'm telling him and he leans
in and he's like, hey, this is going way better
than my therapist that it would.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
What does that mean?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
I didn't get into it. I kind of just laughed
and I don't know, I don't know what how to
take it. So, yeah, like there was just a lot
of moments like that. It was just like comments, he
would say. And then towards the end of our meal,
he looked at the couple next to us and he
asked them to rate our chemistry on a scale from
(14:06):
one to ten. He just asked this quote. I don't know,
I thought it was so weird.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Okay, Sean, let's go to you.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
I'll let you slide on the whole. Let's make this
a huge deal with the server thing like that. Okay,
but then, look, I'm a big proponent of mental health
and stuff, but that might be a little much about
to comment with your therapist or whatever that was.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
I'm told Isabelle, I've not really done a lot of this,
and my therapist was kind of setting me up to
manage expectations and it was going.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Great, and then bugging of the other couple, I'm just
going down the list here.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
I mean, yeah, you know, like you get excited about
something and I don't know, I guess maybe in hindsight
it might just seemed a little silly. But I wanted
to see if other people were noticing the kind of
fun evening that I thought we were having.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
But Son, they were on their own date night. They
told us they have three kids. They were trying to
just get out and relax. We should have just let
them enjoy their meal, you know.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
I guess my thought was that was an experienced couple
who might have some insight as to what's happening with us,
and if it was going well, who better to tell
us than those people, I guess.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
But they could have pared less what was going on
with us?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Okay, yeah, I wasn't noticing that. I guess is it
worth asking?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Here?
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Is it about? Could we get a second shot on this?
Sean's got a little self awareness here.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
I don't know. I feel like he might have some
things he's got to work through. Important. Yeah that's a
now all right.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Hang on, you guys, hang on. I mean respect for
keeping his mind right, But that may have been an overshare.
Second date update. We have an issue in the studio.
I'm going to call it a wardrobe malfunction. Producer Taylor
is here because I have apparently triggered you this morning. Yes,
you had not in a good way. Now, So Taylor
joined a couple of months ago and has been really
(15:44):
helpful in the transition to a new show. Thank you
for all the work that you do backstage. I do
think you should get a shout out at Taylove on
Instagram if you want to follow her. And you learn
things about your coworkers when you work together in close
quarters every single day. I learned things about my old
partner Sandy. I learned things about Core. I learned that tailor.
I learned today that Taylor hates the shirt I'm wearing.
Tell them why.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
My ex boyfriend had that shirt and it was his
favorite and I saw him wear it all the time
and I hated it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Okay, I don't know what to do because it's my shirt,
the only other shirt I have that I could possibly
wear today. I brought in for our Christmas content grab
and it's a gigantic picture of Santa Claus and it
says big Nick with an N energy on it. And
it's red and it's okay, very loud. It's serviceable. But
(16:33):
I don't want to trigger you.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
We can't, Yeah, we can't have you wearing this shirt
any longer.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
But I'm vacillating between change my shirt because I'm a
reasonably nice guy or frankly, this is more like fear
factor in making you face your fears.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
I don't know about that. Maybe we can turn it
inside out or something.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
The other problem is you and I are hosting the
premiere for the new movie Song Sung Blue, that Neil
Diamond tribute band movie. We're gonna be at the Metreon
night at seven o'clock. Before that, to warm up, we're
gonna be singing Neil Diamond songs at the Mint at
about five o'clock if anybody wants to join us in
the castro. I can't be wearing a Christmas shirt in red,
arguably my worst color. I have to look fierce today.
(17:14):
I have to look rock and roll today. This was
my rock and roll shirt. I don't know about that,
but this is apparently toolbox vibes.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
It is lucky brand is missing a shirt and it
needs a bat.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
So here's what I need. If you're listening right now,
if you shop in the city, I need to know
where I can go buy a new shirt because that's
what I have to do today. That's my only option.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Help us both out. Please spare me. Help Marcus. That'll
be great. We'll love you for it.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
So I don't even care where. Hit me up eight hundred,
eight hundred one oh one three, or you can leave
a talk back a quick little message. I just need
a cute t shirt shop for dudes.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Please please, I'm begging you.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Try to save Taylor's sanity. Thank you in advance for
your health. Check out both shirts online at its Archesti
or at Taylove with two e's. We're gonna post them up.
It's time for good news one.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Sometimes all you need is there one a good thought
to make it a great day. So let's do this.
It's good news on Star.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
One one three, So we do good news twice in
the morning. It's seven forty just to make you smile
a little bit, maybe restore your faith in humanity. We've
got a cute story for you. This hour brought to
you by a shreeven company, Luxury time Pieces, Fine Designers,
Flawless Diamonds. There is a twenty nine year old content
creator and entrepreneur, a Stanford grad who is behind a
(18:37):
viral landline style phone that she says helps reduce screen time.
So those of us that remember landlines, I still have
one at my house. This was the one attached to
your wall and pick it up with a cord on it,
and that's where you take all your phone calls. So
this is she's billing it as vintage design with modern tech,
(18:59):
and it's The phone itself is super cute. It looks
like something from the twenties, like something you'd see on
Downton Abbey almost.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
But.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
This allows you to literally hold a vintage handset. You
have nothing to be distracted by. You're one hundred percent
locked in on the that conversation with that person because
how many times do we get on our phones and
maybe you're talking to somebody, but for how we're weirdly
scrolling at the same time at the same time. This
(19:30):
vintage phone has Bluetooth capability. It doesn't have to be
plugged in except when it's being charged. So you've got
the modern technology with that vintage feel and helps reduce
screen time screen time anxiety and keeps you locked in

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Play with us again at weekday mornings at eight o
five am.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
And what you know about that podcast is a preset
on our iHeart app and never miss an episode. We
are having some fun this morning because I saw an
article about things that quote boomers do that the younger
generation has adapted and adopted because they think they're genius.
This has morphed into old people habits that I have.
(25:39):
What's your name? My name is Joe. What do you
call it from?
Speaker 5 (25:41):
Joe?
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Wood City, Nevado? Tell me, brother, what's your home? Per Savage?
Speaker 3 (25:45):
So I have two. One.
Speaker 5 (25:46):
I don't go out of the house in my pajama bottoms.
I mean I see so many people, young people, mostly
walking around in their flannel sleep fans.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Yeah, they're showing up to the Starbucks. Frankly, isn't wearing
your pj's and your ugs to the Starbucks? Like, isn't
that standard Nevado uniform?
Speaker 5 (26:03):
Or do the airport?
Speaker 4 (26:04):
What's up with that?
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Some would say comfort over fashion. Some would say, but
I'm with you, man, So but it's not even fashion.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
It's just showing respect to the people around you.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Is there something to be said for You never know
who you're going to run into. You never know who's
gonna see you exactly.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
The other thing I don't do is I don't wear
my baseball cap at the dinner table.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Oh mah me neither.
Speaker 5 (26:27):
I guess that's just they're just like old school decorum rules.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Sure, because you had good parents. Because every time I
sit down with my baseball cap on, I hear my
mom's voice. No hats at the dinner table every time.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
Exactly dude, that's exactly.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Right, Producer Taylor and I about to get out of here.
Welcome Jillian, Good morning, Good morning. How are you.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Oh, I'm okay.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
How are you guys doing? We're doing great, We're doing.
We were just going over a song I stumbled on
last night. Now, nobody's gonna know the first band. There
was a band back in the day called Boys Like Girls.
They were kind of an emo rocker. Yes, but the
third single from the band was this lead singer's duet
with Taylor Swift and what's the name of it again?
Speaker 2 (27:08):
It's two is Better Than One?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Yes, do you remember that song two is better?
Speaker 2 (27:15):
She does?
Speaker 1 (27:16):
She wouldn't be a true Swifty if she's say, Jillian's
a cavalcade of all the songs.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
I never heard of it. We were just listening it
to its Yeah, it was in the two thousands and
then they dated.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
They know that's right. Yes, everybody go to the iHeartRadio
app at some point today, not now because Jillian's getting
on the radio, but go explore Boys Like Girls featuring
Taylor Swift Two is Better Than One? And then you
can read up on how the lead singer was her boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
I'm sure it's really good.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Follow it's Marcus d for more musical nuggets. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
I love that, Marcus.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
I love that you know that song? I'm a swifty
at heart. What can I say? Hey, what's coming up
on the show.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
There's a research done yes that has picked the most
annoying Chris Smith song in the history of Christmas songs.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Oh, I know what it is. Yeah, I'm not gonna say.
I don't want to steal your shine?
Speaker 2 (28:08):
How high can you get your voice?
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Right?
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Exactly? All right? That plus Star music for your workday,
Jillian's on the way, don't go anywhere, and we'll talk
to you tomorrow. Star one on one three
More variety from the two thousands, the nineties, and today
it's Star one on one three. It's Marcus right before
six o'clock Wednesday day. Good morning, everyone, Good morning. He's
got producer Taylor in the studio because I have just
received some terrible news. Apparently the shirt I am wearing
is giving you PTSD. That's all she told me. Now
you have to tell me why.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
That was my ex boyfriend's shirt. Okay, he had the
same one, and it's bringing a lot of memories back
for me. Right now, I might need you to change.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
It's not how I wanted to start my.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Morning, you know me, neither, Marcus, me neither.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I was liking you until I took my jacket off
and she went, oh no, oh, no, Lucky Brand. It's
the Lucky Brand shirt with the with the playing card
King on it. Now now it's just I'm just nothing
but a memory.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Just to burn it great, I'm gonna go change my shirt,
all right.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
What do we have given on the way this morning?
We have more tickets for the Exploratorium. They have the
coolest thing going on for the holidays. It's the Art
of Life this winter with glow luminous artworks inviting you
to connect, play and get inspired. So we'll have those
at eight oh five, with the trivia game on the way. Next,
talking about boomer habits that the younger generations have started
(01:13):
doing because they're genius. This is a sign for your
kids to start listening to you. Finally, are these legit habits?
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Taylor's basically an old person in a young person's body.
So if you want to follow her online at Taylove
with two Eyes, you can follow me at It's Marcus D.
We will discuss next at six fifteen. Keep it here.
I want to see where you're at with this, these
boomer habits that the younger generations have started doing because
they've realized their genius. I'm sorry, do the older generations
know what they're talking about? Is that what you're telling me?
(01:44):
Is that what's happening. I don't like to call them
boomer habits, not that I'm a boomer, I'm a gen xer,
but it makes me feel old. So physically I'm fifty two.
Mentally well, emotionally I'm about twenty seven. Mentally I'm about nine.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Is that fair?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Yeah, that's a fair assessment.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Producer Taylor is here or she's the one that found
this article. I love it, and you are basically an
old person trapped in a young lady's body.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
To be fair, yes this is true.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
So let me give you some examples off this list.
Someone said, going to a nice restaurant and eating at
the reasonable hour of four thirty PM for dinner. I
turn on close captioning on anything I watch on TV. Well, yeah,
is this your vibe?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
I always have the closed captions on and it's funny
because my parents get.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Mad about it. Your parents get me.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Right, I'm like, you're wearing glasses just to even watch
this show. You might need them more than me. For me,
it's daily walks, okay, going on just a little walk
at the blood flowing That feels so good to kind
of get connected with nature.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
I gotta tell you. With somebody with the diabetes, it's
so good for regulating your blood sugar. Like I've seen
it in real time. I have literally had the little
censor in my arm and watch my blood sugar drop
like twenty points just after about fifteen minutes. Pro tip,
if you go over thirty minutes, your body starts stressing out,
and that is not good for your blood sugar. Your
(02:59):
fight or Flight kicks in to thirty minutes. Just FYI
get out check in on this if you don't mind.
Eight hundred eight hundred and one oh one three. I've
got Melanie on holding Walner Creek. Give me one of
your old people habits, I mean marguts. I've got all
the people cut all of them, gets up early, goes
to bed early.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I need Hella snacks like But I think my favorite
old person story is how I can no longer twork
because I threw my back out the.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
Last time.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
I had to go to the chiropractor to get fixed.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
You were dropping it a little too low, a little
too often, making it Oh my god, I did not
have that. It's a little early for twerk talk. I'm
not gonna lie it's a little early.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
I apologize.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I'm keeping it real here.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
It's tough being an og battye am I right right,
absolutely all right. Thank you for the call. Throwing your
back out wall tworking. That is a visual I will
carry with me for the rest of the day. Again,
the number eight hundred eight hundred one one three or
the talkback is open as always could be part of
the show. Hit the Little Red microphone on the iHeartRadio app.
If you're streaming Star one on one three right now,
you can leave a thirty second message it's Star one
(04:10):
oh one three. This is something we were talking about yesterday,
but it bears repeating because I love all this info.
With the holidays coming in hot, a lot of us
going to see family. But what if you're not, What
if you're truly alone? What can you do to keep
your brain active and keep yourself in a good space.
This neurologist checked in with like six things that I
love and I want to thank producer Taylor good Morning
(04:31):
for bringing these to my attention. Side note, she's been
super helpful behind the scenes. We love her. You should
meet her at Tay Love with two E's on Instagram
if you want to drop her a follow right now.
All right, things you can do to stay sane if
you're alone during the holidays. Number one, I'm starting with,
get your groove on private dance party in the living
room for the win. Can I tell you, when I
(04:52):
was talking about it yesterday how much my life changed
over the weekend when I discovered that the new Apple
update allows you to use your your iPhone microphone is
now your karaoke microphone on your Apple TV. Plus, I'm
never gonna leave the house again.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
It's over.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
I don't need to talk to anybody ever again. I'm
just doing backstree boys in the living room all day.
I love it. Over the weekend, my girls were at
their holiday tea with their friends and I literally was
just I had band practice and I can't share any
of the videos on the nestcams because I was in
my long underwear and nothing else running around in the
living room like a maniac. There's a visual for you. You're welcome,
sorry to everybody having breakfast right now. So private dance
(05:29):
party gets the brain going, definitely mind boosting. I'm gonna
lump these other two together. Start a hobby, work on
a puzzle. Now you're the hobby Queen Taylor. How many
hobbies do you have? Give me like three, one hundred counting.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
But I love to crochet, I love to paint, I
love to draw.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
And you go all in right, Oh yeah, when you
start a hobby, you're like all the stuff. Oh yeah,
give me all the things, all right. We're talking about
things you can do if you're alone for the holidays.
Embrace technology to connect I'm not a big fan of
the zoom happy hour, but if that's all you got,
that's better than nothing. Find like minded people overall, stay active,
find creative ways to get your steps in. See also
(06:07):
band practice in the living room in your long underwear.
There's that visual again. You're welcome if you roll solo
and you've got some ideas, let us know. This is
a perfect talkback moment. It's the little red microphone on
the iHeartRadio app. If you're streaming Star one on one
three right now. Also keep the number handy eight hundred
eight hundred one on one three. You can always check
in what I'm talking about. It's what's trending on Star
(06:30):
one one.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Three, what's happening in entertainment news, the biggest stories of
the day, and everything people are talking about today in
the Bay.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Before we get to the fun stuff, a little bit
of adulting. And I'm sorry to have to say this,
but if you are a homeowner in the Bay, your
property taxes are due today. No fyi, I've paid my
late last night. After today must be postmarked by five
o'clock otherwise you get the penalty. Okay, just fyi, Okay,
onto the fun stuff. Let's start with K Pop Demon Hunters,
(06:59):
because that's where I like to start. The song gives
me life. Apparently everybody else too, as K Pop Demon
Hunters has been named Times Breakthrough of the Year, becoming
a massive global hit on Netflix, featuring this song Golden,
which I play in the bathroom during my affirmations every morning.
(07:20):
That was too much info. I just gonna let it
play out a little bit. God, I love it so
so good? What a great I mean, how many times
have we seen this movie Netflix over and over on repeat?
Speaker 3 (07:33):
All? Right?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
What else is going on that? Australian influencer Jonathan Wen,
who is known as Pajama Man, who routinely will bum
rush celebrities like Ariana Grande, Katie Perry and others just
to get the selfie, just so he can post, just
to be a troll, got kicked out of a Lady
Gaga concert in Brisbane, Australia before it even started. Worry
(07:53):
about that, I guess. I guess if you post on
the Internet, people can see it, including like security and
police and stuff. Right, and they frowned on bum rushing people.
I guess. I guess that's the deal. Yeah, I guess,
so he got escorted out. Everybody was going just being
imagine being blued by an entire stadium for being a troll.
(08:14):
I'm here for it. Why is he not in jail?
I thought he was going to jail.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I think he was only in jail for a couple
of days.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Oh no, yeah, all right. And then the other big
story here locally is the lady here in the city
who gave birth insight of a Weymo while on the
way to the hospital. So she called the Weimo because
you know, water broke. She was on her way. Waimo's
support team noticed something was wrong, checked in, called nine
to one one. The Robotaxi beat the emergency cruise two
(08:44):
UCSF Medical Center right down the street here from the
radio station. Mom and baby are fine.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Oh thank god.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I love and and you know they now security. I'm
not security, but emergency protocols are in place with the car.
It's going to go out of service for a little bit,
but it'll be back on the road. Let's see Powerball
jackpot has jumped to nine hundred and thirty million dollars.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Oh my goodness knows.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
By the way, you know the rule on this show.
Producer Taylor is here. She's new. She's been helping me
out behind the scenes backstage. Love her to death. In fact,
drop her a follow on Instagram while I'm thinking about it,
Please at Taylove to East. The rule on the show is,
if you win the jackpod, I have to you have
to break me off ten mil and I will reciprocate.
Is that the rule? That's the rule?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
I'm just being informed buff this now?
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Speaking of the star one on one three fm Instagram,
we have a poll up. What is our poll for today?
In the stories?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yes, it is National lagger Day, so we want to
know what is the best food pairing with a logger?
Do you like a burger, a pizza, wings, or are
you gonna pair it with just about anything?
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
I thought, I'm so dub I thought we were shouting
out people that cut trees down.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Like it's Marcus and we are back with second date update.
Let me explain how it works. So you go on
a first date, you get ghosted, you call me, We
get your date on the phone and with you listening
in and try to figure out if something went wrong
or if we can grab a second date. Sometimes it's
a misunderstanding. So let's say good morning to Sean. Sean, Hello, Hey,
good morning, Hey man, I want to hear all about Isabelle.
(10:14):
So let's start with, like, how you guys met and
then tell me what you did on your first date.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
Well, we met on matched and that was great. Everything
was really great there. We met up for dinner. We
went to a Thai restaurant, which again really great. I
thought everything was going well. Man, she's incredibly cute. She
just seemed like this is gonna sound corny, but she
seemed like real. She seemed grounded. You know, she did
that thing where when somebody laughs, they laughed with.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Their whole body. Yeah that was her.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
Yeah, that was her. We kind of clicked. I thought.
We talked about we love both of dogs. We both
are joking that were dog parents, some of our favorite shows.
We both love cooking shows. We talked about the worst
dates we'd bet on. So I thought everything was good.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
That's funny because I just took a cooking class last
week and it was thy food. I think this is fate, Sean,
I really do. We're cosmically here together. So okay, just
to recap, though she has ghosted.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
Yeah, yeah, I guess you could say that.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Yes, okay, we're doing second date update. I've got Sean
on the phone. We've been chatting. So he went out
with Isabelle after meeting on match. They went to Berkeley
for some ty food. Great first date, super cute. And
you said she laughs with her whole body? Is that right?
Speaker 4 (11:28):
The shoulders, neck, stomach, like, the whole laugh. It's great.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
All right, let's call her, try to figure out because
I know she's ghosteds. Go ahead and meet your phone.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
We're here Sean Isabelle. Obviously, Sean would love to take
you out again, and he enjoyed your first date. So
did you ghost and if so, we'd like to know
what happened.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Yeah, I mean, yes I did. I don't normally do that.
But look, he's not son, You're not a bad guy.
I just felt like things were super awkward.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Okay, why we sit down.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
And we order something to drink and he tells the
server like right away, Hey, this is a big deal.
I don't go on many dates, and so can we, like,
you know, have some kind of thing to celebrate this date.
It was just kind of awkward. I just kind of
let it go because, yeah, like it's the first date.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Who doesn't like to be l Yeah, I don't know
it was.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
I wasn't expecting it.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
So this is where you tell me there's more.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Yeah, definitely there was more. So okay we start just
he asked me like, what was the worst date I've
ever been on? So I'm telling him and he leans
in and he's like, hey, this is going way better
than my therapist that it would.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
What does that mean?
Speaker 3 (13:42):
I didn't get into it. I kind of just laughed
and I don't know, I don't know what how to
take it. So, yeah, like there was just a lot
of moments like that. It was just like comments, he
would say. And then towards the end of our meal,
he looked at the couple next to us and he
asked them to rate our chemistry on a scale from
(14:06):
one to ten. He just asked this quote. I don't know,
I thought it was so weird.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Okay, Sean, let's go to you.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
I'll let you slide on the whole. Let's make this
a huge deal with the server thing like that. Okay,
but then, look, I'm a big proponent of mental health
and stuff, but that might be a little much about
to comment with your therapist or whatever that was.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
I'm told Isabelle, I've not really done a lot of this,
and my therapist was kind of setting me up to
manage expectations and it was going.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Great, and then bugging of the other couple, I'm just
going down the list here.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
I mean, yeah, you know, like you get excited about
something and I don't know, I guess maybe in hindsight
it might just seemed a little silly. But I wanted
to see if other people were noticing the kind of
fun evening that I thought we were having.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
But Son, they were on their own date night. They
told us they have three kids. They were trying to
just get out and relax. We should have just let
them enjoy their meal, you know.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
I guess my thought was that was an experienced couple
who might have some insight as to what's happening with us,
and if it was going well, who better to tell
us than those people, I guess.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
But they could have pared less what was going on
with us?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Okay, yeah, I wasn't noticing that. I guess is it
worth asking?
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Here?
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Is it about? Could we get a second shot on this?
Sean's got a little self awareness here.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
I don't know. I feel like he might have some
things he's got to work through. Important. Yeah that's a
now all right.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Hang on, you guys, hang on. I mean respect for
keeping his mind right, But that may have been an overshare.
Second date update. We have an issue in the studio.
I'm going to call it a wardrobe malfunction. Producer Taylor
is here because I have apparently triggered you this morning. Yes,
you had not in a good way. Now, So Taylor
joined a couple of months ago and has been really
(15:44):
helpful in the transition to a new show. Thank you
for all the work that you do backstage. I do
think you should get a shout out at Taylove on
Instagram if you want to follow her. And you learn
things about your coworkers when you work together in close
quarters every single day. I learned things about my old
partner Sandy. I learned things about Core. I learned that tailor.
I learned today that Taylor hates the shirt I'm wearing.
Tell them why.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
My ex boyfriend had that shirt and it was his
favorite and I saw him wear it all the time
and I hated it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Okay, I don't know what to do because it's my shirt,
the only other shirt I have that I could possibly
wear today. I brought in for our Christmas content grab
and it's a gigantic picture of Santa Claus and it
says big Nick with an N energy on it. And
it's red and it's okay, very loud. It's serviceable. But
(16:33):
I don't want to trigger you.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
We can't, Yeah, we can't have you wearing this shirt
any longer.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
But I'm vacillating between change my shirt because I'm a
reasonably nice guy or frankly, this is more like fear
factor in making you face your fears.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
I don't know about that. Maybe we can turn it
inside out or something.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
The other problem is you and I are hosting the
premiere for the new movie Song Sung Blue, that Neil
Diamond tribute band movie. We're gonna be at the Metreon
night at seven o'clock. Before that, to warm up, we're
gonna be singing Neil Diamond songs at the Mint at
about five o'clock if anybody wants to join us in
the castro. I can't be wearing a Christmas shirt in red,
arguably my worst color. I have to look fierce today.
(17:14):
I have to look rock and roll today. This was
my rock and roll shirt. I don't know about that,
but this is apparently toolbox vibes.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
It is lucky brand is missing a shirt and it
needs a bat.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
So here's what I need. If you're listening right now,
if you shop in the city, I need to know
where I can go buy a new shirt because that's
what I have to do today. That's my only option.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Help us both out. Please spare me. Help Marcus. That'll
be great. We'll love you for it.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
So I don't even care where. Hit me up eight hundred,
eight hundred one oh one three, or you can leave
a talk back a quick little message. I just need
a cute t shirt shop for dudes.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Please please, I'm begging you.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Try to save Taylor's sanity. Thank you in advance for
your health. Check out both shirts online at its Archesti
or at Taylove with two e's. We're gonna post them up.
It's time for good news one.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Sometimes all you need is there one a good thought
to make it a great day. So let's do this.
It's good news on Star.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
One one three, So we do good news twice in
the morning. It's seven forty just to make you smile
a little bit, maybe restore your faith in humanity. We've
got a cute story for you. This hour brought to
you by a shreeven company, Luxury time Pieces, Fine Designers,
Flawless Diamonds. There is a twenty nine year old content
creator and entrepreneur, a Stanford grad who is behind a
(18:37):
viral landline style phone that she says helps reduce screen time.
So those of us that remember landlines, I still have
one at my house. This was the one attached to
your wall and pick it up with a cord on it,
and that's where you take all your phone calls. So
this is she's billing it as vintage design with modern tech,
(18:59):
and it's The phone itself is super cute. It looks
like something from the twenties, like something you'd see on
Downton Abbey almost.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
But.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
This allows you to literally hold a vintage handset. You
have nothing to be distracted by. You're one hundred percent
locked in on the that conversation with that person because
how many times do we get on our phones and
maybe you're talking to somebody, but for how we're weirdly
scrolling at the same time at the same time. This
(19:30):
vintage phone has Bluetooth capability. It doesn't have to be
plugged in except when it's being charged. So you've got
the modern technology with that vintage feel and helps reduce
screen time screen time anxiety and keeps you locked in
on that one person that you're talking to.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
You.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I'm here for it. I think this is pretty great.
So again, her name is Samantha excuse me, Catherine, Catherine Goats,
and she's behind this company called Phish Phones out of
la but she's from Stanford, so go Trees. It's Marcus

The other thing I don't do is I don't wear
my baseball cap at the dinner table.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Oh mah me neither.
Speaker 5 (26:27):
I guess that's just they're just like old school decorum rules.
Speaker 1 (26:30):

sit down with my baseball cap on, I hear my
mom's voice. No hats at the dinner table every time.

last night. Now, nobody's gonna know the first band. There
was a band back in the day called Boys Like Girls.
They were kind of an emo rocker. Yes, but the
third single from the band was this lead singer's duet
with Taylor Swift and what's the name of it again?
