Bounce Mornings With Matt - Sound Bites

We've all got those meals we go to when we're close to payday, or even just can't be bothered to throw anything remotely complicated together. From Grilled Cheese to a plain tortilla, there's lots out there! 

We sparked a surprisingly heated debate: what actually makes something a burger versus a sandwich? Is it the meat, the bun, the way it’s built, or just what we’ve always called it? Add chicken, fish, and veggie burgers into the mix, and suddenly there are no rules… just strong opinions.

Comedian and actress passed away on Friday, and Matt talks a bit about the impact she had on him growing up. 

I've realized my morning routine is about as simple as it gets. Wake up, shower, get dressed, and head out the door. No breakfast, maybe stop for a coffee or energy drink on the way in to the station. But I'm curious, what does YOUR morning routine look like! Let me know, and I just might try it out and report back! 

I thought it was going to be something fun to play casually, but I am fully hooked on Mario Kart! After getting a secondhand Nintendo Switch over the Holidays, I have become OBSESSED with kart and tire combos, character selection, and even watching videos on the best "racing line" on a level! It's more or less harmless, but it's become a complete obsession! Do you have any harmless obsessions? 

The Holidays have come and gone, and I had an absolute blast! I was able to visit my parents, and see some other family, which is always a lovely thing. One of the biggest highlights for me was my conversation with my cousin's kid. He was very bright, and kept me on my toes! 

This time of year, Christmas music is a guarantee, no matter where you go. And most of us have songs we like, or at least can tolerate! But, sometimes, we encounter some Christmas songs we just can't do. For me, Randy Bachman's "Takin' Care of Christmas", and "Christmas Shoes" by Newsong do it for me. What about you? Let us know in the comments, or text 321-321!  

Love it or hate it, Christmas music is a pretty inevitable thing this time of year. But I think it's safe to say each of us has at least one or two Christmas tunes we can get on board with! What are yours? 

Frozen the Musical brings all of the fun, and heartfelt goodness that the movie has, to the WMCA stage this week! I was able to chat with James and Tiana about the upcoming show! 

This weekend, Bounce is getting into the Holiday spirit with the Countdown to Christmas! Think of it as dipping your toes into the Christmas Music that inevitably shows up this time of year. It's inevitable, like your co-worker Donna's homemade butter tarts showing up, and just staring at you from the staff kitchen! 

It's a delicious tradition in Brandon, and it's back for another year! The MICA Holiday Buffet will be next week, and tickets go on sale today! 

Boiled hot dogs don’t count, unless you’re really leaning into the chaos of National Men Make Dinner Day. This one’s for the guys who usually avoid the kitchen but are now armed with a spatula and a dream. The rules are simple: four ingredients, one real utensil, and no outsourcing the cleanup. If it all goes sideways, just pivot to National Sandwich Day and call it a win.

It’s “Use Your Common Sense Day” — and we’ve got a few reminders that should be obvious... but aren’t.
From elevator etiquette to grocery cart gridlock, it’s time to celebrate the little things that keep life running smoothly.
