(00:23):
Today's question or clue if you will restaurants restaurant experts specifically,
he made it one word. I was trying to emphasize
the right thing, and I felt it in my bones coming. Okay,
take to court go. Restaurant experts say we should expect
to see this unusual food on menus more and more

(00:46):
in the upcoming years. Okay, we're at eight seven seven
nine eight one nine eight one. Cedric con Saminiteo, Good morning.
You've got a guest for us this Monday morning. What
is it?

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Oxtails?

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Oxtails? What is an ox tail?

Speaker 2 (01:00):
It's the tail of a cow. I don't know where
they got the ox from.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
People eat that.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, especially it's start off as a Southern staple book.
It's very popular now in all culture.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Oxtail stew I've heard of that.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Yeah, absolutely, But I can't eat beef because I'll get
the gout. But it's actually really good.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Get Hey, I'm right there with you. It's the gout
too if I if I eat too much too much
fatty food. Really, is that your liver the gout attacks? No,
what is it to build up of acid in your joints?

Speaker 2 (01:31):
In your joints, it's very, very, very painful. It's very debilitating.
It's it's something you never want to get. It hurts
so bad.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Do you keep a bottle of a leave in your
your ready? Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:42):
You know what really works for me is it's a
prescription that's preading its own.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Okay, yeah, hey guys, what time is your bridge match? Match?
Later today? I appreciate the answer about oxtail. It sounds
delicious minus the gout, but not the crank answer Cedric. No,

(02:06):
look all right, we'll have a good day. Cedric.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Yeah, you guys, talk to your food all right.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Bye bye, Tierra and Vallejo. What do you think the answer.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Is, Ostrich, I don't.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
That's a legit, guess that's an exotic food for sure. Yeah,
it's very different.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
I don't eat out a lot.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
I'm a vegetarian also, so I can say that that way.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
I'm really careful about what I'm.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Eating and consuming. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah, yeah, that's a tricky one for me because I
eat a lot of the same things, and unusual food
could be a vegetarian food. It could be like a
bean sprout butter. That's something. It sounds bean sprout butter. Yeah,
that's all vegetarian. Yeah, just not vegan. It's not ostrich.
I would imagine it's an ostrich and it's not bean
sprout butter. No, okay, cracked answer. Restaurant experts say, in

(02:55):
the upcoming years, you're going to see more and more
eel on rest I already get it in sushi. I
know a lot of sushi places we'll have eel on
the menu. Apparently we're going to see more and more
of it. And you know what, what's crazy about that
answer is that my mind went to something featfood related.
I don't That's one thing that before I even became

(03:16):
a vegetarian, I.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Was never interested in.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
I thought I did something ostridge also icky, but like
eel I don't think I've ever had eel on purpose.
I'm pretty sure I had it. I don't think I
meant to. That's hilarious. How does somebody sneak you in eel?
I think it's been in sushi. I've eaten a sushi
ro oh so gross. Okay, sorry on that note, Tiara,

(03:43):
have a great day. Thanks for calling and playing along.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Thank you so much, guys.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
I love listening to you guys. Okay, so ostridche eel gout.
This show might be we may have peaked at six
twenty two am. Yeah, we're this Our work is done.
Didn't have that on your more Morning Breeze bingo card. No,
I did not think we would discuss did not, but
the Morning Breeze brain teas we play every weekday morning
at six twenty certainly invite you to do so. Coming

(04:09):
up next. There is another debate online that people are
so fired up about, and it's something that like you
might do this at home every single day. Some are
saying you're doing it correct. Others are saying, Nope, it's incorrect.
If you've got kids, they're definitely doing it wrong. It's
a us absolutely for life. So it's a big debate.

(04:29):
We'll tell you what it is, see how you feel
about it. That's coming up next on the Breeze Brees.
It's Billy Joel. Good morning, Happy Monday to you. It
is the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Core. Thank you
for being here. We were saying a minute ago, there's
a debate that is making the news. This debate has
to do with your dishwasher and it's dividing families literally.

(04:53):
So the debate is do you rinse your dishes before
you load them into the dishwasher or do you shaking
my head over here, not rinse them. You just eat,
put the plate in the dishwasher, turn your back, walk away.
I get the hebe gbs even thinking about not rinsing
my dish. There's there's a middle ground here, and the

(05:15):
idea is the scrape. You're not obviously putting chunk large
chunks of food into your dishwasher. Let's say you've had
a plate of pasta, okay, and there's like a sauce situation,
obviously some noodles. You are saying you just scrape that. See.
I would take the brush, run water, do a little
bit of soap on it, and then I would put it,

(05:36):
and you can't do that. And that's the debate, right
is whether you should be rinsing or should be doing
that or not. If the rinse here's the thing. This
is my opinion, and I think this is the way
everybody should do it. If the rinse removes all the sauce,
all the dirtiness of the dish. Now granted it's not sanitary,
but it's at least been rinsed and everything's gone. You're
actually doing your Your dishwasher won't work correctly because modern

(05:59):
dishwashers require there to be some sort of filth. Because
you know how you turn on your dishwasher and it
does that first little rintse. Yeah, that's the analyzation. It
runs water over every really, yeah, it runs water through it.
That water drips off of everything, That water trickles down
somewhere in below, and there's a sensor that says like, oh,
there's a lot of dirt in here. It's analyzing how

(06:21):
much how dirty your dishes are, so then it knows
how much it needs to wash. Do you know that?
While you're talking, I am visualizing. I just put you
at Sears in nineteen eighty five, Like if you came
to my house to install a dishwasher, and you gave
me that same speech, I'd be like, this guy knows
what he's doing enough, Like I feel like you could
go have a side hustle as a dishwasher. Well, I

(06:43):
think this is a day. I never knew this. This
is a dad thing because at a certain point in
my life I became very passionate about the dishwasher, how
it's loaded, how it should be loaded, and why everybody
is wrong and how they're loading. How does this go
down at your house with Randy? Because Andy and I
usually agree on things, and I say, rinse the dishes,

(07:04):
I can't imagine Randy just throws there. No, like she
puts them in the dishwasher and they look like they
were clean. That's my girl. That's what I'm talking about.
That it's not good for your dishwasher. Your dishwasher needs that,
and so it's not cleaning them as well sanitizing as
well as it should be. Oh that is gonna. I
have a very distinct memory in my brain as a

(07:24):
as a teenager, my dad sitting everybody down and explaining
to everybody how we should be loading the dishwasher. And
here we are. Yeah, and I remember thinking what are
you doing? Dad? And then suddenly I'm doing it. Yeah,
I'm so passionate, goes cats of the Cradle. I will
come to your house and teach your family how to
load that dishwash. Okay, that is funny. That's funny. And

(07:45):
now I'm the child you're sitting down, but it's on
the radio in San Francisco and you're teaching the whole
Bay area. Do you need me to I'll come over
sometime this week. We'll sit down. I'll walk you through
the basics. Think you just did. We're good there, but
thanks for the offer. I appreciate it. So now we
know we're at eight seven seven nine eight one nine
eight one. I think you just made it no longer
a debate by the way you just threw the hammer

(08:07):
down there. All right, there's the right way in the
wrong way, and it sounds like you've been doing it
the wrong way. Okay, pretty passionate about that. You can
always send us a message with our iHeartRadio app. Use
that talkback mic on our app. Here's something not to that.
There should be no debate about which is sticking around
because later this morning, eight fifty We're going to give
you ninety eight minutes of commercial free music and that
is the best way to start your day. Yep, we're
telling you this is for real. We both agree on this.

(08:30):
Ninety eight minutes we're going commercial free. We do it
every weekday morning to start off your day. We love
it as much as you do. So be here at
eight fifty for that. On the Breeze. It's the Morning

(09:13):
a two time now now two time breast cancer survivor,
and every time when I get to look at her
and wake up next to her and do anything with her,
it's extra special.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Because of what we've gone through.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
Two times two times. Wow.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
Yeah, at forty one two times two times.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
That's incredible. So things are looking better now.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Always always looking good. I got to keep my head
up with all of that.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Bill, you sound like such a good guy, and she
is so lucky to have you as her support.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
You know.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
I try to be there for her.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
You know, and I'm sure she really appreciates it.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
I think we're a good team.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
You know, what's your wife's name, Christy? Well, Bill, give
Christy a hug for us, and tell her that we're
thinking of her. Okay, we'll do all right, take care
of Bill.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Thanks guys.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
These survivors are incredible.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
You know.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Over the weekend, Court, I was out at San Francisco Zoo.
It was the National Brain Tumor Society Walk in the
Bay Area in northern California. It happened to be at
the Zoo and I was the MC for the event
and seeing these incredible survivors. We had a moment where
we brought all the survivors up and I mean kids, yeah, adults,

(10:20):
and then they're families coming up and supporting them, and
you just realize, like the impact that something like that,
like Bill with his you know, with his wife with
breast cancer, or these people with the Brain Tumor Society,
you know who have experienced brain tumors and their survivors.
It's incredible when you see it for yourself in person,
it's really moving, and oftentimes you would have no idea.

(10:41):
You would you never suspect that these people have been
through what they've been through. No. As a matter of fact,
there was a lady that came up to me after
the event. She said, Hey, do you live on such
and such street in the conquered Clayton area And I
said I do, and she goes, oh, yeah, you're You're
the person's always walking a Golden Retriever. I said, yeah,
that's me, and she was there and it was her son. Yeah,

(11:02):
who this is probably six or seven years old and
he had a brain too much. This is one of
your neighbors. Yeah, she goes, I didn't realize my neighbor
was famous. And I'm like, she's not. And in turn,
you didn't realize that here you have a neighbor that
had been through something like brain cans. No, And I
walked past her house all the time, and she's out
there and her kids are playing. I never would have known,

(11:23):
so just it just incredible, these survivors like you know,
go guys and girls. Yep, oh, it's it's really it
takes my breath away. But we would love to hear
from you and hear your brighter side. We're at eight
seven seven nine eight one oh nine eight one. We
have people that sent us brighter sides with our iHeartRadio
app that talk back MIC. That's certainly an option for

(11:44):
you as well. Speaking of the free iHeartRadio AP, it's
a great way for you to listen to the Breeze
wherever you go and maybe pencil this into your calendar
your schedule for today. Yeah, eight fifty will be commercial free,
ninety eight minutes of NonStop, commercial free, relaxing favorites.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
We'll start that rite at eight fifty for your workday
on this Monday morning. Here on the Breeze, Madonna at
seven twenty seven. Here on ninety eight point one the Breeze.
You've got the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Corden. This
is the time of the show Carolyn where we turned
the reins over to the listener. I love it. Yeah,
we call it ask us anything, where you call in
and ask us anything that might be on your mind,
could be about something you've heard on the show, could

(12:20):
just be a random question that popped into your brain.
Eight seven seven nine eight one nine eight one. That's
how you reach us. So today's ask us anything. We've
got Arlene and Hayward on the phone with us, and
she is asking about how we stay fit, right, and
so for me, definitely exercise and with that comes diet.
I would like to be better at diet and exercise,

(12:42):
like getting a grip on it. Yeah, they kind of
go hand in hand. Oh yeah, No, no, I think
if you will, if you're if the goal is to
lose weight, the diet probably should come first, right right?
Are how's your How is your exercise routine? On a
scale of one to ten, I think it won't be
And that's pretty good. Wow, it's pretty good. Kind of

(13:03):
a worker outer here, Corey. Good for you. They call
him his worker outer. No, they don't, Okay, I just
did though. So Arlene, what is your go to exercise program?
What do you what do you do? I walk every
day for half an hour my lunch. I love when
I see people out walking at line just thow steps in. Yep,
and you sit all day long, right, so it's nice

(13:24):
to get up and walk around for a while for sure.
Fresh air, that's right, and get away from the work area. Yeah,
that's maybe the most important part. We could read between
those lines. Well, we won't ask you where you work,
but we do wish you a good day and thank
you for being on the show with us. I just
I just want to say thank you to both of you.

(13:46):
I always listen to you every morning. Oh but I'm
going to work. Yeah, that's so nice. I really appreciate it. Yeah,
we do appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
I appreciate you, all right, Arlene.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
It was great to hear from you, and I do
about I trade Carolyn to get about ten thousand steps
in every single day, and you do it, don't you.
I'm consistently over ten thousand. And I know that people
say you don't have to do ten thousand because it
was some sort of marketing gimmick I think for one
of the yeah step counters. Yeah, but ten thousand feels
good to me. I'm into strength training these days. I

(14:19):
used to be a cardio bunny. I would do NonStop
cardio miles and miles and now I'm into lifting weights
and I love it. I keep hearing it. I keep
pairing people that once you get into your thirties, forties
and fifties and on weight, like weightlifting is actually better
and better for you. I've heard that all and all
sorts of stuff, I hope. So we have this question

(14:40):
on our Facebook page as a matter of fact, ninety
eight one of the Breeze on Facebook, what is your
go to daily exercise? We've got a lot of walkers
in our audience, which I love. It's a minimal thing
you can do. Yeah, and it's easy, and it's free
and yeah, and it's good for the mental too. So
all right, that was a great ask us anything, Arlene,
thank you. If you've got one for us, you can
give us call eight seven seven nine eight one nine

(15:03):
eight one. A lot of people like to send a
talkback to our iHeartRadio app, so you can do it
that way. Our iHeartRadio app has a microphone button right
next to the play button. That is how you send
those talkbacks. And our app is free in your app
store download at ninety eight one. Theebreeze dot com. It's
the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and courtle end rhymes here
at eight oh seven, Welcome to your Monday. Yeah, in

(15:24):
a very special anniversary for our Carolyn mccartill. I'm I
gotta tell you I am super melancholy about this today.
Oh wait, let me set the stage here real quickly.
Let me oh oh, yes, yes, today, back when pigeons
delivered the mail, if they ever did in the eighteen hundreds,
that longer, you know, Carol, okay, was the day that

(15:47):
I walked across the stage back for high school graduation.
Back in the day, June sixteenth. The Conquer Pavilion is
where we had our graduation. That's a cool place to
have a graduation. Yeah, and today is like the let's
just say, it's been more than twenty years, maybe more

(16:07):
than thirty. I'm curious because so June sixteenth was when
you graduated. Every June sixteenth you think about it, right, Well,
here's what's funny. I'm I love like memories, and it was.
I loved high school, and I still talk to friends
from high school, and so I knew we were coming
up on the date, but I couldn't remember the date.
So I texted my friend Holly and asked her because

(16:31):
she's always got a yearbook at the ready. She's that
person where you're like, hey, do you remember like Neil Miller,
and she'll be like, here's his picture instantly yeah. Yeah.
So sure enough came a picture of like graduation said
June sixteenth, you know, eighteen ninety two anyway, And so
I started thinking about, like all the kids that are
graduating now and what a special day that is. I

(16:54):
mean I remember that. First of all, there was the pressure.
I don't know if you guys you had to find
the person to walk with for graduation. We didn't do that. No,
is it like a like a family member or so
it was a classmate. So when you walked from behind
for us at the Concer Pavilion which is now Toyota Pavilion,
but Concer Pavilion, we'd walk down, up and around and
down the steps to the stage. So you needed like

(17:16):
you walked usually with like a guy. It was like
a scaled down version of a prom date because there
was this pressure to find the guy to walk with
you down to the stage. Yeah, you guys didn't do that. No,
did you do a grad night? We did do a
grad night? Okay. They you'd go and it was a
lock in, so you'd go, you arrive, you had to
be there on time. You couldn't leave once you were there. Yes,

(17:37):
and do you remember I still do that? They do?
Oh yeah, my daughter Quinn had one a couple of
years ago. Oh I love that. And remember the parents
were the chaperones and I think about that now now
I'm not a parent, but let me ask you. It
was an overnight situation. If you were a parent or
are a parent, you had to stay up all night
chaperoning for free. By the way, typically in the middle

(17:59):
of the week. Those graduations are like on a Wednesday
or a Thursday. That's true. So when Quinn graduated, the
way her high school tried to do it was if
you were a senior parent, they didn't want you volunteering
because they're like, look, you just spent the day at graduation.
You've got family in town. It was a big to do.
So the junior parents were always asked to cover the

(18:19):
senior year the grad night. Can I remember my friend
Mindy's mom was one of our chaperons and she was
graduated with you there.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, we volunteered. My wife and I we volunteered. When
Quinn was a junior and so we helped out and
then when she graduated, we just took the night off.
That that is crazy and smart. Court You're like, we
did our time a year ago. We're good. But yeah,
to all of the graduates, like, congratulations. I mean, it
seems like just yesterday that we were graduating and now

(18:50):
it's these kids are graduating. It's we know what you're
like all the fields, right, it's so great. And to
the parents of the graduate and then you've got reunions
to look for, it's all so fun ish. We're at
eight seven seven nine eight one oh nine eight one.
You can always send us a message our iHeartRadio app
that talk back Mike. We love getting your messages through

(19:10):
our app. On the way. Later this hour eight fifty
as you begin your workday and your work week, will
help out with ninety eight minutes of NonStop commercial free
relaxing favorites. Great way to start your day. We're commercial
free at eight fifty right here,
