eight point one The Breeze. It's the Morning Breeze with
Carolyn and Court and time now for that Morning Breeze
Brain Tea sponsored by Mike Counsel Plumbing. You're in clean
hands with Mike Counsel Plumbing. Visit them at mc plumbing
dot com. Today's question, Carolyn, Yes, the average person will
(00:23):
spend five and a half months of their life waiting
on this.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Waiting on this mmmm. Okay eight seven seven nine eight
one is how you reach us. You can also send
us a message with our iHeartRadio app and that talkback
microphone if that's more convenient for you if you're commuting
in and just need to be quick. Yeah, we got you. Uh,
Teresa in Foster City, Good morning, you're up first. What
(00:48):
do you think the answer is? On hold? On hold?
Oh totally, if you add up collectively, I almost like
it's going to be more by five and a half months.
I think so too. Well, that's not the answer, I
take it. She's figured us out. Yeah, that's not the
correct answer. But it was a solid guest, and we
(01:09):
hope you have a good day, Teresa. Oh my god,
you too.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
All right, bye bye Michelle and Valeo. What do you
think The answer.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Is a financial breakthrough? Financial break Oh man? Yeah, you
wait and you're like, I hope I get that job,
or I hope I get that raise. Whatever, right, I
like that thinking.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Yeah, that is a great answer, not the correct one.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
What's the answer?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
The average person will spend five and a half months
of their life waiting for a web page or a
video to load on a computer, five and a half
months total.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah, over time, you wait five and a half months
just waiting for something to load. Well, if you work
in this building, you're gonna wait five and a half
months out of the year. Yeah that's true. That's true.
It is really bad. Yeah yeah, yeah, not very wow
yeah oha. Oh well oh well I'll try and you
call us anytime. Michelle, it was great to talk to you.
(02:04):
I'm swell you guys. Have a good bed. You too,
you too.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
It's interesting to think about, Carolyn, because when the internet
first came around, if we were going.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Back decades, I was just thinking about this and it
was dial up AOL yeah, and just how slow it
was then. But we didn't know any better. No, we
thought it was great as we were going out on
the web.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yeah, it was what it was. And now websites load
so fast that even if there's a small delay on them,
we're like, WHOA, what is this?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
I was totally just thinking the same thing. We're so mad.
It's so ridiculous too when you think about it. Oh
I had to wait five seconds or to load. I'm
so annoyed. Yeah, it's like, cool your jets. We're at
eight seven seven, nine, eight one, nine eight one. It
is the Morning Breeze Brain Teas and we do play
every weekday morning at six twenty Always love when you
(02:57):
join us.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Something else we do. We're going to do it at
six forty this morning. It's called ask Us Anything. And
actually earlier this week we made a little switch arou
on the Morning Breeze schedule because this was something we
have done later in the show.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Yeah, if you're used to tuning in at six forty
and or you know from this time until six forty
and hearing the more, you know, we now do that
at seven twenty five. That's where we were doing ask
Us Anything. Ask Us Anything is now at six forty, so.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
So ask us Anything. Is your chance to call into
the show and do just that. Ask us anything, anything
on your mind, if you're curious about something you've heard
on the show, or just have a general question for us.
We would love to hear from you eight seven seven
nine eight one nine eight one, or send us your
questions using the talkback feature on our free iHeartRadio app
Berthrez Natalie Imbrillia.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It's torn six thirty nine. Good morning. It is the
Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Cord, and it is time
for one of our favorite segments on the show. It's
called ask us Anything. Think of it as like a
radio version I guess of truth or dare, But you
take out the dare so true.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I was thinking you were going to say it's a
radio version of ask Me Anything, which is something that
happens on Reddit.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Sure we could do that too, and then honestly, that's
where I stole the idea from. So now that's out there,
so thank you, Court. But you throw out the questions,
we will answer those questions. Anything goes eight seven seven
eight one. We have people that send us messages via
direct messenger or post on our social Yeah, you can
send us a talk back with the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Or in this case, Rachel sent us an email. Carolyn, Okay,
she wrote, Hi Carolyn in Court. We live in Texas.
We listened to you on the app.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Thank you for that. Oh free iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Yeah, she says, we're planning a trip to the Bay
Area next year and want to know what are the
must see places?
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Oh, this is why you put that question on a
Facebook page, because I think both you and I could
answer this question, but we would miss a lot. So
this is cool. Yeah, so on our Facebook page, what
is the musty tourist attraction in the Bay Area? Okay,
that's where that came from. All right, So for you,
Lombard Street. I put Lombard Street, I mean and I
put Lombard Street because we already have so many great
(05:02):
suggestions on our page, the obvious Golden gate Bridge, Ken says,
Fisherman's Wharf, Bill says, Mirror Woods. Like, we have great suggestions,
so I just wanted to do something different. But Lombard
Street's awesome. Like I do think it's an absolute touristic I've.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Seen it from a distance, I have yet to actually
go experience it in a car.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
I have lived here since well four decades now. Yeah,
I've never done Lombard Streets. Should we get there? And
that I'm telling people to go see I've never met. Yeah,
should we get in the breeze get the breeze van
and would it fit it? Would we just have to
go slow? Yeah, I've seen some big cars on there. Okay,
we should court We totally should Okay, So what's yours
(05:42):
for me?
Speaker 2 (05:43):
When I and again I'm really I'm relatively new to
the Bay Area, so I'm still discovering places. But when
people come to visit, we always make sure we take
them to see the Golden gate Bridge, but not necessarily
drive across it, because it's it's great that way, but
you miss, you miss some.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Of you miss so much.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
So if you go down in the presidio, down to
the lower part where Fort Point is m hmm, which
right now I don't know if you can actually access
a lot of those areas because the government shut down. Yeah,
but if you get into that angle of it, and
if you even just get out of your car and
hike around the trails around there, you get some of
the most spectacular views of the Golden gate Bridge.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
I agree unbelievable. I will also say I was thinking
about this while you were talking. Keep driving and head
up to Napa, because oh, I think the Napa Valley
is gorgeous. And if I'm if somebody's coming in from
another state like Texas, you know, it's like make you're
going to be here for however long. Yeah, you're not
going to come in and leave right away.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Go to Napa. Well, experience how gorgeous that is. Here's
the other thing, and Bill pointed this out on our
Facebook page. Bill contributed, you need to go see the
mirror Woods. I know because my first experience in the
Bay Area was when I was sixteen or seventeen years old.
Came here on a choir trip and we did all
sorts of you know, Bay area San Francisco touristy things.
M hm.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
But it was seeing the redwoods for the first time
pretty amazing. It blew my mind. Yeah, as as a
young boy from Utah, where you know, we saw pine
trees every now and then. Mm hmm. Seeing redwoods is
just it's a little bit different. It's a game change. Yeah. Well,
so I on our Facebook page with this question said,
I think Lombard Street is a must and Christy just commented,
(07:20):
I think she's listening or read this and said, Lombard
is only truly beautiful in spring when the flowers begin
to bloom and show off all the different colors. That's
a very good point in the spring. So we'll check
it out. You check it out and weigh in on
that question at ninety eight one of the Breeze on Facebook,
or give us a call, ask us literally anything eight
seven seven nine, nine eight one.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
And coming up again this morning seven forty, so about
an hour from right now. It's another shot to win
those Sarah McLaughlin tickets when she hits the stage of
the Masonic in November.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
It's going to be such a good show and such
a great venue. So be here, yes at seven forty
your chance to win those tickets.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
On the Breeze, it's the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and
Core and Celine beyond at seven seven And because it's
seven oh seven, it's time for the Brighter Side, sponsored
by Shriven Company, luxury time pieces, find Designers and Flawless Diamonds.
The Brighter Side is all about the good things happening
in your life, whether that's at home, at work, anywhere
and you can call us at eight seven seven nine
(08:19):
nine eight one, or use the talkback feature on our
free iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
We mentioned a minute ago that this was a situation
of right place, Right time. This happened in Cameron Park
in northern California in El Dorado Hills or El Dorado County.
So Cole Weissman and his brother, they're a sleep in
their house the other night. Cole wakes up. He smells
smoke in the house. Yeah, he wakes up his brother.
(08:44):
They grab their cat. They're going down the hallway, which
is now completely full of smoke to the point where
they can't even see. They find their way out to
the street. They're able to get out in time. It
looks like their garage had caught on fire and so
the smoke was just super thick in the house. They
call nine one one. They're out front. His brother grabs
(09:04):
a garden hose. They start trying to like manage this fire,
which is now like pretty decent fire lo and behold
their neighbor, James Lee Giblin, who just happens to be
a firefighter with cal Fires Ponderosa Fire Crew. He's on
his way to work. He drives by, He's like, what
is happening at my neighbor's house? He stops, gets out,
(09:27):
not just help contain the fire, but help put the
fire out completely. Nice.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
So he was just on his way to work, yes,
and stumbled upon a fire, saw.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
The smoke as he's coming up the street, pulls over
and helps put it out. The captain of James Lee's
fire department said it takes about five minutes for the
full garage to be covered in smoke where you can't
see anything. So if James Lee hadn't been there and
knocked this fire down by the time the fire engine
got there, it could have eaten that fire easily could
have extended into the house. So this guy, James Lee,
(09:58):
this firefighter, saved the house essentially from burning to the ground.
So they have fire damage in the garage but and
some smoke damage inside. But all things considered, they got
really lucky. He kept it from spreading and making it
definitely worse. Yeah, if not a full loss. Absolutely wow.
So just a total right place, right time. What a
story that is.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
We wanted to share that with you and it's it's
good because I can only imagine if you you're witnessing
a fire and you know, obviously they were smart enough
to get the hose out and start attacking the fire.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Yeah, the two brothers, but they're not professionals. No, they
don't know. And that's what I think the difference was.
I think, you know, they were attacking it with the
hose and look, I am definitely not the personet. I'm
no expert, but I think that when James Lee came
on scene, like he probably knew this is where I
need to aim, this is where I need to attack
this from, like this actual location. So it's great anyway, Yeah,
(10:51):
we wanted to share that with you this morning. We
are at eight seven seven nine eight one oh nine
eight one. If you have a brighter side for us,
you're always welcome to call us share your b side.
We've had people send us brider sides with our talkback
Mike on our iHeartRadio op that's an option as well,
and a reminder coming up, INT's see, I gotta do
the math here, Kerry the thirty thirty thirty minutes. That
(11:11):
was pretty simple.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Coming up at seven forty this morning, We've got more
of those Sarah McLaughlin tickets. She's going to be at
the Masonic on November twenty eighth, that's the day following Thanksgiving,
and we've got a set of tickets for you.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I mean, look, you've got a long weekend that weekend.
Hopefully if you get that Friday off and now you're
coming into the city kicking off the holidays with Sarah McLaughlin,
it'd be great. How great is that? Be here at
seven forty your chance to win Smokey Robinson doing one
of our favorites here on the breeze, Cruisin at seven
twenty seven. It is the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Cord.
We do it every weekday morning at this time. It
(11:45):
is called The More You Know. And you said a
minute ago that waiting in line could be good for us.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Yeah, there's a few things that I hate to do,
and one of which is waiting in line. I like,
if I want to go to eat somewhere and I
walk up and there's a line, I'm out, I'm instantly out. Well,
according to science, waiting is actually not a waste of
your time. Research shows that it strengthens self control, helps
us resist short term temptations in favor of long term goals.
(12:19):
But it's not just waiting in line, simple pauses before eating,
like you sit down, don't eat right away, or maybe
waiting to spend some money, or replying to an email
or a text. You don't have to answer that right away.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Looking at you, I know, Court, I know if you
could be quicker on your text responses. No.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Cording to science creates space between impulse and action.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
It's just supposed to help you. It's supposed to be.
Is it supposed to just slow you down overall? Slow
down your heart rates, slow down sirens and waiting Foster's reflection, creativity,
better communication in nearly every everyday setting. It is funny
how sometimes you will get into a long line. I'm
thinking just grocery store. Right, you go to the grocery store,
(13:06):
you're in a long line. You look at the line
as you approach, and you go, ah, you do the
a lane from seinfelders Yeah, right, And then you get
in line and you realize, wow, I have a minute
to just sit here. Just maybe you meet somebody nice
in line and you're having a lovely conversation. It turns
out to be not so bad, so I kind of
understand your point here. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
It allows you to savor It allows you to have
those moments of reflection to think about something you're grateful for. Okay,
mindfulness can creep in in a good way.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
You buy into this the more you know.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah, so again, it's not just waiting in line, it's
just pausing before everything. It's that whole impulse and action
like it put a separation.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Between those two. Okay, you'll be better off on line,
all right, love it the more you know. We do
it every weekday morning at this time. By the way,
it is sponsored by the San Francisco Symphony. They are
the best. The holidays are coming and you can go
enjoy a show or two. Oh yeah, and it makes
a great holiday gift. Sure does I have to say, Yeah,
we are at eight seven seven nine, eight one oh
(14:09):
nine eight one, give us about ten minutes, we're gonna
have your next chance to win those tickets to see
Sarah McLachlin.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Yes, And I should point out because at seven forty,
we're gonna say call now to be color ten. Don't wait,
don't there should be no waiting, there should be no lag.
Don't create space between a same call now and dialing. Yeah,
I'm telling everybody to be patients and just take a pause,
don't make don't take a pause when we say to.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Call when it hits seven forty, get that heart rate
up and start dialing, is what we're saying. Undo everything
Court just told you to do. That's right. You want
to get those tickets and then you're gonna go to
Sarah McLaughlin. You'll be like and then you're back into
the mile of oh yeah. So seven forty your chance
to go see Sarah McLaughlin at the Masonic November twenty eighth.
Be here and it'll be your chance to win on
the breeze.
Speaker 2 (14:54):

Tickets at seven forty here on the breeze.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Simply right at eighth five here on ninety eight point
one in the breeze. It's the morning Breeze with Carolyn
and Courts.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
I said a second ago, I want to know if
this has ever happened to you or anybody listening. The
weirdest thing happened to me last night while I was
sleeping court and this is something that has never happened
to me before.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Uh can I can I make a guess of what happened?
This happens to me every now and then what I
will snore and it'll startle me awake.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
How is that what happened to you? I am happy
to report that was not the answer. That did not happen.
I just thought I would give give that a try.
See if that was the answer. Are you sure you
met snore? Yeah, no, it's story. Yes, no, that's not
what happened. So at unbeknownst to me, at two forty
three am, two forty three I remember it specifically, two
(16:20):
forty three am. Got out of bed this morning. I
stretched this morning and I was like, oh, my alarm.
I still feel kind of tired, but yeah, my alarm
just went off so I went into the bathroom and
I brought my phone into the bathroom and set it up.
I always have it in the bathroom just to make sure,
like I haven't gotten a call about my mom or whatever.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
And then you're you're at two forty three your alarm
is set for two forty three am.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Well, that's what I was going to say. I look
and I'm like, wait two forty three. As I'm coming too,
I'm like, my alarm didn't go off. I dreamt that
my alarm went off. Ah, yes, to the point where
I got out of bed, up, stretched, went put my
phone in the restroom and was like, I still have
an hour, and I went back to bed. Wow. Have
(17:06):
you ever done that where you dreamed that your alarm
gets off to the point that you actually get about yes?
Oh yeah. Have you gone farther than I did where
you get up and then you start getting dressed or
did you do what I did where you realize pretty quickly, Oh,
I dreamt that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
There's been times where I panic, like or or I'll
wake up. I have a dream where I've slept in
oh yeah, and then I wake up in a panic, overslapped.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Yeah, and then then I wake up and kind of gauge.
I'm like, wait a minute, this is it right. I
don't think I've ever fully gotten dressed. I have heard
stories about people that have done what I did, where
you dream that your alarm's going off to the point
where they get out of bed and they get in
the car and to work, or they go much farther
than I did. And I thought, oh my gosh, what
if that had happened. Oh, yeah, you'd walk in in
(17:54):
the morning, because the court's always here before I first
went in by a couple of minutes. Are you not
the first one in by a couple of minutes, A
couple of minutes, give me this by thirty minutes, yeah,
or sometimes more. Sure anyway, you would have freaked out
if you'd come in and I've been here before, you
have been like, what happened? Was going to your place?
Speaker 2 (18:15):
You hear about people who who go into work on
weekends too, same thing, Yes, where they just wake up there,
I don't back to work.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Yep. Oh man, I totally see that happening in my future.
So the lesson here is it could have been worse
for you. It could have been worse, but just wondering
if this has happened to anybody else. Oh, I can
guarantee it has. Send us a talk back with our
iHeartRadio app. You've got thirty seconds to tell your story.
You can call us eight seven seven nine eight one
nine eight one. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
And it's not just dreams. It's just a dream that
I mean not just an alarm clock going off, but
any dream that was so vivid and real to you
that you woke up from it thinking that was real.
You some some action on something that happened in the dream.
What was it? So call us or send us a
talk back.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
And we want to remind you that coming up later
this hour, eight fifty this morning, we will be commercial free.
We do it every weekday morning to start off your day.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Jan when you hear this, you won't be dreaming because
it's going to be ninety eight minutes of NonStop, commercial free,
relaxing favorites. And we'll kick that off at eight fifty
here on the morning Breeze
