like over here and I over there? Christie, you're gonna
be in the other room? Is it me? Am I

Well, today's creamsickle day.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh okay, I know a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
That like creamsickles. They're a little too sweet for me.
But I did find a creamsickle cocktail, of course, and
it has vodka, orange liqueur, orange juice, and heavy cream.
I bet this would actually be really good at almost
kind of sounds like an orange Julius a little bit
to me.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Oh yeah, that does. Yeah, I think that's kind of
what a creepy.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
For the vodka and orange liqueur.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Depends on how you like you Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:48):

Speaker 2 (02:27):
Now surveys and studies and such. Tired of picking up toys,
bottles and stuffed animals all day and stepping on legos,
You're not alone. Chinese researchers say they may have a solution.
A new prototype robot can spot objects on the floor
and scoop them up for it gosh. It uses soft,
inflatable fingers. It responds to voice commands, maps rooms. It
can handle items up to about a half a pound
(02:48):
without crushing them. During lab tests, it successfully picked up
everything from teddy bears to oranges. To move around. It
uses the same kind of laser tech as a self
driving car. Its soft grip is designed to be safe
around pets and kids. The robot even lifts up and
down to reach different surfaces. It's still in early development,
but the future of tidy living maybe getting closer.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
People are not going to do anything for themselves anymore.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
That reminds me of Rosie from The Jetsons, because there
was a little robot that we're not cleaned up the house.
That's if we don't have a room. But if we
had one, I would name it Rosie, but we don't
have one. Surveys and studies and such. I don't think
that's any of those. I don't know why that's here anyway.
Here it is on The John and Heidie Show.

He's just a neat, neat dude. I'm excited to see that.
And recently, Chris Pratt was on the Jimmy Fallon program,
The Tonight Show, and he asked him, why did you
name your kid Ford? Because his eight month old son's
name is forty. Was that company paid me the most?
He said, he was almost Hyundai. Anyway, I'm pretty sure
he's kidding. And Dave Franco is open to the idea
(04:38):
of playing his lookalike Luigi whatever his name is, the
guy that killed the CEO of United Healthcare. So anyway,
he said, I've never seen what. Yeah, there's an image.
Somebody asked him, would you play them? He goes, yeah,
I would. Nobody's approached me about it, but yeah, I
would that, you know, if there was a good story.

Thousand teeth and twelve thousand teeth to It depends on
how big the snail is now. They're not like ours,
so don't be thinking about snails getting you know, ridiculous
toothy grins or anything. These snails have teeth all over
their light their file like tongue, so they got a
whole bunch of little teeth on their tongue. So yeah,

Time out for the joke of the day with my
beautiful bride, Heidi, What you got for us today? Heidi?
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Today, I asked my camp my phone Siri, why am
I still single? And it activated the front camera.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I know she's kidding because her phone doesn't have.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Siri, and because I'm married.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
And because you're beautiful. So all of those, all of
those reasons that that should not be a joke. That
should not have been the third reason that should have
been the first reason. That is your joke of the
day on The John and Heidie Show.
Speaker 1 (06:47):

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Time now for your scoop of the day. Take a
list of this. Billions of years from now, Earth will
have a thirty hour day. So they're saying that, you know,
things are gonna change and we're gonna have more hours,
but it's billions of years from now, so I don't
think we have to do anything to change anything right now,
Like you don't need to, you know, set up additional
hours for watering on the sprinkler. None of that fall
(07:41):
is here though. According to home Depot Anyway, who officially
made Skelley, It's twelve foot Halloween decoration available for sale recently,
the Ultra Skelley is there's a twelve foot version and
there's a six and a half foot version. Okay, these
are to let trigger treaters. You know, you know that
you're into the holiday spirit and all of that, and
(08:03):
you can actually talk to them through the small one
through an app fun so in kids Approach through Ultra
Ultra Skelley you can talk to them.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Well, that's fun.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
It also comes with thirty seconds of spooky modulated voice recordings,
has app controlled lighting and movement. Two hundred and seventy
nine bucks is what. I didn't realize how much those
were for a one night event. Yeah, and also joining Skelley,
they have Grays and Bone's collection, a sitting Skelley with
a dog and a Skelly cat which are both five
(08:33):
feet tall, so those are big. Halloween is still quite
a way's way, but Home Depot says they are ready,
apparently because they got it all out and ready to go.
Scoop of the day right here on the John and
Heidi Show Show. Thank you so much for listening to
The John and Heidie Show, brought to you in park
by Jacecasemedical dot com. Do you have a jays Case?
You can get all of the details for free right
(08:55):
now at jascasemedical dot com. Out for Dear John letters. John,
all right, this is an interesting one and I asked
for some fun letters, so this is kind of fun fun.
It's also kind of exciting. Really, I mean, think about
it all right, here we go, Dear John. My husband
(09:16):
and I got married a few weeks ago, and we
received a surprising gift from a woman who was not
even at the wedding. A few years ago, we were
dating and we hit a rough patch and broke up.
He dated this woman for a short time, then we
got back together. We've been solid for a few years
and I haven't thought about this woman. But now she
sent us a check for ten thousand dollars and told
(09:40):
us to go have an amazing honeymoon. I tried talking
about it with my husband and he reassured me that
he has not stayed in contact with her, and he
was just as surprised as I was to receive this.
At first, I was confused. I mean, it's been years,
and then to give such a large sum of money
is weird. I don't think he's lying to me, and
we could use the money, but I feel uneasy accepting
(10:01):
this money from a woman he dated. Am I being
too stubborn about not wanting to take it because of
who it's from. My husband thinks we should keep the money,
but to me, it's dirty. What would you do? How
would you handle this, signed surprised bride. Well, first of all,
congratulations on getting married. I think that's really cool. And
you know, it's not unusual for somebody to date and
(10:22):
then break up and then get back together. That happens
all the time. And then here's the thing, what do
you do during the times when you've broken up? Because
you know, if you guys broke up and he was single,
so that makes it a little different because if he
was cheating on you with this person, that would be
a whole different story in my mind. And that's also
where if he's stayed in contact with her, that's also
(10:44):
kind of a h maybe you don't do it an Yeah,
but if he hasn't stayed in contact and she sent
this saying you guys go have an amazing honeymoon, maybe
she's just really happy for him. And maybe he's happy
that you are making him happy and you guys, you know,
so maybe it is a good thing. What do you
think Heidi's got this, She's got a different look on
her face.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I'd be like, bomb voyage, Jim out of town, We're going.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I can't put all of that on the radio. Yeah,
so that's good to know. Our twenty sixth anniversaries coming
up with any ladies.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
From my past have an extra tend well in this stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
No, probably not. I think that's kind of I've never
really thought about that before. But I know I was
at a wedding one time where and I thought this
was odd. The best man and one of the other
groomsmen had also dated the bride before the room did.
Now here's the thing I will say this is I
was a wedding DJ for years. In all fairness, this
(11:47):
was in a very small town.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
So everybody eventually dated everybody.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Well, and that's the thing that I was going to say,
because when I was talking to her, you know, she
booked me. I was the DJ. So she's like so
and so, and then she was giving me the list
of aims for the wedding party, and she's like this,
she goes, I actually dated him and him in high school.
I was like, you did, and now there you're only three.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Other guys in the high school.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
So it's a small town. She's like, yeah, he dated
one of my my brides or not the bridesmaid, but
one of the what do you call the ladies? They're
not groomsmen? What are they bridesmaids. Yeah, why was I
thinking that was a different name.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Clearly, I need to take a break anyway. So I've
seen that, but I've never seen this. Have you seen
anything like this?
Speaker 3 (12:27):
No, it's a little unused now, so I wouldn't mind.
So if there are any actions of John's that want
to send us some money or I will take it.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
You know, our daughter's getting married next year or so,
any of her exes, of his exes, you know, ten grand,
that's ten grand is ten grand. I can understand where
you're uneasy, she says. I feel uneasy accepting the money
because it's from a woman he dated. But maybe what
you do is reach out to her and just say
you reach out to her, not him. You reach out
and say thank you so much. I appreciate this. I
(12:55):
just want to make sure there's like no strings attached,
there's no expectation. Why in the world did you do this?
I would talk to her about it, you know. And
and maybe it was supposed to be one hundred dollars
since she accidentally put a couple.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Extras now, because you'd have to write out ten I
suppose payment line.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
So I don't know. Well, then she certainly meant it,
so I don't know that just uh, maybe she's trying
to show him what he missed out.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
We missed on it. That's great. Yeah, you can show
him what he's got when you're on your fancy honeymoon.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
Yeah, Charles Manson follower, her name was Lynette, tried to
shoot forward when he reached out to shake her hand
at a public meet and greet. She pulled the trigger,
but the gun's chamber was empty. Just three weeks later,
another woman, Sarah Janemore, fired on Ford in a similar
crowd situation, but a bystander, noctr Armorway.

Fun fact for you, Heidie. We call red heads redheads
rather than orange heads because redheads have existed longer than
the word orange existed. Like that didn't even exist. Yeah,
fun fact for you, Heide. People using sign language also
have accents, so when you're signing, you can have an accent.
(18:20):
It's got a bit of a drawl. Fun fact for you, Heidie.
The word buffalo can refer to the animal a city
in New York. It can also mean to bully. Therefore,
the following sentence is grammatically correct. Buffalo buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo.
I don't know what it means, but it's grammatically correct.

France is considering cutting a couple of public holidays as
the government is looking for ways to save money. I
don't understand.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
How does that have to do with the government.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Well, the Prime Minister announced a series of spending cuts
recently as the government works to reduce the budget deficit
in France. Among the proposals for his suggestions were his
suggestions rather than Easter Monday holiday be canceled because no
longer has any more religious significance according to him, and
May eighth also Victory Day in Europe, which marks the
(19:49):
Nazi Germany surrender which brought a end of World War two.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Predict he's probably talking about paid holidays from government.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Predictably, backlash to the ideas have been intent.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Can you imagine saying I don't think we need holidays
anymore for Easter, you know? And I can't imagine saying
I don't think we need to celebrate the Victory Day anymore.
Can you even imagine?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
It's crazy?
Speaker 2 (20:10):
He must not be running for reelection. This is last
time weird news on the John and Heidi Show. My

Time Now for the question of the day. This one's
for you, Heidi. Which body part continues to grow after
(20:53):
you die?
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Knows?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
No?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Actually the answer is none. It is a myth. Skin
shrinks that makes things like hair and nails look like
they've grown, but they didn't grow. It was just your
skin shrinking away.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
So every I was thinking, the body part that continues
to grow? Your nose in your ears? Yeah, my two
worst features good an adorable nose.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Isn't it? Love your ears? She's my wife.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
I could have to say that.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
That is your question of the day on The John
and Heidie Show Show. Thank you so much for listening

with Heidi Small What you got for me? Heidi?
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Strange laws? Okay, in Devin, Colorado, it's illegal to walk
backwards after sunset?
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Why does that make any sense?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
No?
Speaker 3 (21:50):
None of these do? Okay, this one, Hilary I would
love to know the story behind this. In Connecticut, it's
against a lot of play scrabble while waiting for a
politician to speak.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Well, apparently some politician wanted to speak and they weren't
done playing.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
I don't know. Eating soup with a fork is against
the law in New York, all kinds of soup apparently.
And it's illegal to sell used confetti in Detroit.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Holy cow, Who was going around sweeping up confetti and
reselling it?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
And why couldn't you if you're going to put in
the work and somebody wants to buy it? Great?
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Wait a minute, is this pre owned confetti?
Speaker 3 (22:32):
This one's got some bed anyways, That's all I.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Got right, something special with Heidi Small.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Time out for the list. I have some common cat myths,
so like this. Cats should have a litter before they
are spade. No, it actually doesn't benefit them in any way.
Street cats are always healthier than purebread cats. Actually both
can be unhealthy, but mixed breed cats do not get
many of the genetic diseases common purebread lines. Do all
(23:30):
cats prefer canned food? Not true, many prefer dry food.
Cats cannot be trained well. In fact, they can be
trained to do tricks when they feel like it. Cats
like tasty food. What they eat is primarily based on
their sense of smell.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
So cats everybody likes tasty food.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
I do too. Cats will let you know when they're sick.
Their instinct is to hide when they're stick when they're sick.
I can't speak right now. Cats naturally know how to
use a litter back. No, cats actually understand the concept.
Not all cats understand the concept right away, And cats
are happier and healthier when they're outdoors. Actually indoor cats
have a much longer lifespan. So some common cat and
(24:12):
myths on the list on The John and Heidi Show.

to wrap things up around here with good news, and
I think this is a good news story. I love.
This comes from Wisconsin. Teenage workers save a restaurant as
(24:41):
the owner spends months in the hospital. So there's a
place called Urban Olive and Vine in Hudson, Wisconsin. It's
not unusual to be greeted by a teenager when you
walk in, or to have your food delivered by a teenager.
In fact, nearly the entire team is made up of teens.
Thirty teens to be exact, but that's by design. Owners
Chad and Carol always believed in giving young people a
(25:02):
chance to learn and grow in a real world environment.
Most of their staff are between ages fourteen and eighteen.
And they've always been eager to soak up knowledge and
do their best. But this year I think they did
more than their best. They actually saved the business. Last
September everything changed for Carol. She had a grand mall
seizure right on the restaurant floor.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
She was hospitalized for eight months. Much that time spent
in a coma. Chad stayed by your side, traveling back
and forth, and they would go to Minneapolis, and he
almost closed the restaurant, but he said, I didn't ask
one teenager to do anything extra. They all just did it.
Isn't that cool? So they all stepped up, teens took charge,
(25:43):
They prepped the food, They did every single thing that
needed to be done to make sure he could be
by his wife's love. That I do too. He said,
it's a family here. The sense of family didn't come
out of nowhere. Chad and Carroll had a long had
long supported their teen staff out of work, attending their
school events, sponsoring their activities, and offering with homework and
(26:07):
life challenges. So what a cool time.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
I love that story. What a great fat.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Choked up reading it. So I'm going to just stop
and we're going to put a link and if you'd
like to see that, you can. It's in the show

I bet this would actually be really good at almost
kind of sounds like an orange Julius a little bit
to me.

Now surveys and studies and such. Tired of picking up toys,
bottles and stuffed animals all day and stepping on legos,
You're not alone. Chinese researchers say they may have a solution.
A new prototype robot can spot objects on the floor
and scoop them up for it gosh. It uses soft,
inflatable fingers. It responds to voice commands, maps rooms. It
can handle items up to about a half a pound
(02:48):
without crushing them. During lab tests, it successfully picked up
everything from teddy bears to oranges. To move around. It
uses the same kind of laser tech as a self
driving car. Its soft grip is designed to be safe
around pets and kids. The robot even lifts up and
down to reach different surfaces. It's still in early development,
but the future of tidy living maybe getting closer.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
People are not going to do anything for themselves anymore.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
That reminds me of Rosie from The Jetsons, because there
was a little robot that we're not cleaned up the house.
That's if we don't have a room. But if we
had one, I would name it Rosie, but we don't
have one. Surveys and studies and such. I don't think
that's any of those. I don't know why that's here anyway.
Here it is on The John and Heidie Show.

He's just a neat, neat dude. I'm excited to see that.
And recently, Chris Pratt was on the Jimmy Fallon program,
The Tonight Show, and he asked him, why did you
name your kid Ford? Because his eight month old son's
name is forty. Was that company paid me the most?
He said, he was almost Hyundai. Anyway, I'm pretty sure
he's kidding. And Dave Franco is open to the idea
(04:38):
of playing his lookalike Luigi whatever his name is, the
guy that killed the CEO of United Healthcare. So anyway,
he said, I've never seen what. Yeah, there's an image.
Somebody asked him, would you play them? He goes, yeah,
I would. Nobody's approached me about it, but yeah, I

Speaker 3 (06:21):
Today, I asked my camp my phone Siri, why am
I still single? And it activated the front camera.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I know she's kidding because her phone doesn't have.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Siri, and because I'm married.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
And because you're beautiful. So all of those, all of
those reasons that that should not be a joke. That
should not have been the third reason that should have
been the first reason. That is your joke of the

Time now for your scoop of the day. Take a
list of this. Billions of years from now, Earth will
have a thirty hour day. So they're saying that, you know,
things are gonna change and we're gonna have more hours,
but it's billions of years from now, so I don't
think we have to do anything to change anything right now,
Like you don't need to, you know, set up additional
hours for watering on the sprinkler. None of that fall
(07:41):
is here though. According to home Depot Anyway, who officially
made Skelley, It's twelve foot Halloween decoration available for sale recently,
the Ultra Skelley is there's a twelve foot version and
there's a six and a half foot version. Okay, these
are to let trigger treaters. You know, you know that
you're into the holiday spirit and all of that, and
(08:03):
you can actually talk to them through the small one
through an app fun so in kids Approach through Ultra
Ultra Skelley you can talk to them.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Well, that's fun.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
It also comes with thirty seconds of spooky modulated voice recordings,
has app controlled lighting and movement. Two hundred and seventy
nine bucks is what. I didn't realize how much those
were for a one night event. Yeah, and also joining Skelley,
they have Grays and Bone's collection, a sitting Skelley with
a dog and a Skelly cat which are both five
(08:33):
feet tall, so those are big. Halloween is still quite
a way's way, but Home Depot says they are ready,
apparently because they got it all out and ready to go.
Scoop of the day right here on the John and
Heidi Show Show. Thank you so much for listening to
The John and Heidie Show, brought to you in park
by Jacecasemedical dot com. Do you have a jays Case?
You can get all of the details for free right
(08:55):
now at jascasemedical dot com. Out for Dear John letters. John,
all right, this is an interesting one and I asked
for some fun letters, so this is kind of fun fun.
It's also kind of exciting. Really, I mean, think about
it all right, here we go, Dear John. My husband
(09:16):
and I got married a few weeks ago, and we
received a surprising gift from a woman who was not
even at the wedding. A few years ago, we were
dating and we hit a rough patch and broke up.
He dated this woman for a short time, then we
got back together. We've been solid for a few years
and I haven't thought about this woman. But now she
sent us a check for ten thousand dollars and told
(09:40):
us to go have an amazing honeymoon. I tried talking
about it with my husband and he reassured me that
he has not stayed in contact with her, and he
was just as surprised as I was to receive this.
At first, I was confused. I mean, it's been years,
and then to give such a large sum of money
is weird. I don't think he's lying to me, and
we could use the money, but I feel uneasy accepting
(10:01):
this money from a woman he dated. Am I being
too stubborn about not wanting to take it because of
who it's from. My husband thinks we should keep the money,
but to me, it's dirty. What would you do? How
would you handle this, signed surprised bride. Well, first of all,
congratulations on getting married. I think that's really cool. And
you know, it's not unusual for somebody to date and
(10:22):
then break up and then get back together. That happens
all the time. And then here's the thing, what do
you do during the times when you've broken up? Because
you know, if you guys broke up and he was single,
so that makes it a little different because if he
was cheating on you with this person, that would be
a whole different story in my mind. And that's also
where if he's stayed in contact with her, that's also
(10:44):
kind of a h maybe you don't do it an Yeah,
but if he hasn't stayed in contact and she sent
this saying you guys go have an amazing honeymoon, maybe
she's just really happy for him. And maybe he's happy
that you are making him happy and you guys, you know,
so maybe it is a good thing. What do you
think Heidi's got this, She's got a different look on
her face.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I'd be like, bomb voyage, Jim out of town, We're going.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
I can't put all of that on the radio. Yeah,
so that's good to know. Our twenty sixth anniversaries coming
up with any ladies.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
From my past have an extra tend well in this stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
No, probably not. I think that's kind of I've never
really thought about that before. But I know I was
at a wedding one time where and I thought this
was odd. The best man and one of the other
groomsmen had also dated the bride before the room did.
Now here's the thing I will say this is I
was a wedding DJ for years. In all fairness, this
(11:47):
was in a very small town.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
So everybody eventually dated everybody.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Well, and that's the thing that I was going to say,
because when I was talking to her, you know, she
booked me. I was the DJ. So she's like so
and so, and then she was giving me the list
of aims for the wedding party, and she's like this,
she goes, I actually dated him and him in high school.
I was like, you did, and now there you're only three.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Other guys in the high school.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
So it's a small town. She's like, yeah, he dated
one of my my brides or not the bridesmaid, but
one of the what do you call the ladies? They're
not groomsmen? What are they bridesmaids. Yeah, why was I
thinking that was a different name.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Clearly, I need to take a break anyway. So I've
seen that, but I've never seen this. Have you seen
anything like this?
Speaker 3 (12:27):
No, it's a little unused now, so I wouldn't mind.
So if there are any actions of John's that want
to send us some money or I will take it.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
You know, our daughter's getting married next year or so,
any of her exes, of his exes, you know, ten grand,
that's ten grand is ten grand. I can understand where
you're uneasy, she says. I feel uneasy accepting the money
because it's from a woman he dated. But maybe what
you do is reach out to her and just say
you reach out to her, not him. You reach out
and say thank you so much. I appreciate this. I
(12:55):
just want to make sure there's like no strings attached,
there's no expectation. Why in the world did you do this?
I would talk to her about it, you know. And
and maybe it was supposed to be one hundred dollars
since she accidentally put a couple.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Extras now, because you'd have to write out ten I
suppose payment line.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
So I don't know. Well, then she certainly meant it,
so I don't know that just uh, maybe she's trying
to show him what he missed out.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
We missed on it. That's great. Yeah, you can show
him what he's got when you're on your fancy honeymoon.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
There you go.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
It was Gerald Ford.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
There were two ladies, wasn't it.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Yeah, Charles Manson follower, her name was Lynette, tried to
shoot forward when he reached out to shake her hand
at a public meet and greet. She pulled the trigger,
but the gun's chamber was empty. Just three weeks later,
another woman, Sarah Janemore, fired on Ford in a similar
crowd situation, but a bystander, noctr Armorway.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Isn't that wild?
Speaker 3 (17:20):
What are you doing upset the ladies so much? Anyways?

Fun fact for you, Heidie. We call red heads redheads
rather than orange heads because redheads have existed longer than
the word orange existed. Like that didn't even exist. Yeah,
fun fact for you, Heide. People using sign language also
have accents, so when you're signing, you can have an accent.
(18:20):
It's got a bit of a drawl. Fun fact for you, Heidie.
The word buffalo can refer to the animal a city
in New York. It can also mean to bully. Therefore,
the following sentence is grammatically correct. Buffalo buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo.
I don't know what it means, but it's grammatically correct.

France is considering cutting a couple of public holidays as
the government is looking for ways to save money. I
don't understand.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
How does that have to do with the government.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Well, the Prime Minister announced a series of spending cuts
recently as the government works to reduce the budget deficit
in France. Among the proposals for his suggestions were his
suggestions rather than Easter Monday holiday be canceled because no
longer has any more religious significance according to him, and
May eighth also Victory Day in Europe, which marks the
(19:49):
Nazi Germany surrender which brought a end of World War two.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Predict he's probably talking about paid holidays from government.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Predictably, backlash to the ideas have been intent.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Can you imagine saying I don't think we need holidays
anymore for Easter, you know? And I can't imagine saying
I don't think we need to celebrate the Victory Day anymore.
Can you even imagine?
Speaker 3 (20:09):
It's crazy?
Speaker 2 (20:10):
He must not be running for reelection. This is last
time weird news on the John and Heidi Show. My

Time Now for the question of the day. This one's
for you, Heidi. Which body part continues to grow after
(20:53):
you die?
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Knows?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
No?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Actually the answer is none. It is a myth. Skin
shrinks that makes things like hair and nails look like
they've grown, but they didn't grow. It was just your
skin shrinking away.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
So every I was thinking, the body part that continues
to grow? Your nose in your ears? Yeah, my two
worst features good an adorable nose.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Isn't it? Love your ears? She's my wife.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
I could have to say that.
Speaker 2 (21:18):

and Heidie Show Show. Thank you so much for listening

You can get all of the details for free right
now at jcecasemedical dot com. Time now for something special
(21:38):
with Heidi Small What you got for me? Heidi?
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Strange laws? Okay, in Devin, Colorado, it's illegal to walk
backwards after sunset?
Speaker 2 (21:48):
Why does that make any sense?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
No?
Speaker 3 (21:50):
None of these do? Okay, this one, Hilary I would
love to know the story behind this. In Connecticut, it's
against a lot of play scrabble while waiting for a
politician to speak.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Well, apparently some politician wanted to speak and they weren't
done playing.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
I don't know. Eating soup with a fork is against
the law in New York, all kinds of soup apparently.
And it's illegal to sell used confetti in Detroit.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Holy cow, Who was going around sweeping up confetti and
reselling it?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
And why couldn't you if you're going to put in
the work and somebody wants to buy it? Great?
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Wait a minute, is this pre owned confetti?
Speaker 3 (22:32):
This one's got some bed anyways, That's all I.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
Got right, something special with Heidi Small.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Time out for the list. I have some common cat myths,
so like this. Cats should have a litter before they
are spade. No, it actually doesn't benefit them in any way.
Street cats are always healthier than purebread cats. Actually both
can be unhealthy, but mixed breed cats do not get
many of the genetic diseases common purebread lines. Do all
(23:30):
cats prefer canned food? Not true, many prefer dry food.
Cats cannot be trained well. In fact, they can be
trained to do tricks when they feel like it. Cats
like tasty food. What they eat is primarily based on
their sense of smell.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
So cats everybody likes tasty food.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
I do too. Cats will let you know when they're sick.
Their instinct is to hide when they're stick when they're sick.
I can't speak right now. Cats naturally know how to
use a litter back. No, cats actually understand the concept.
Not all cats understand the concept right away, And cats
are happier and healthier when they're outdoors. Actually indoor cats
have a much longer lifespan. So some common cat and
(24:12):
myths on the list on The John and Heidi Show.

This comes from Wisconsin. Teenage workers save a restaurant as
(24:41):
the owner spends months in the hospital. So there's a
place called Urban Olive and Vine in Hudson, Wisconsin. It's
not unusual to be greeted by a teenager when you
walk in, or to have your food delivered by a teenager.
In fact, nearly the entire team is made up of teens.
Thirty teens to be exact, but that's by design. Owners
Chad and Carol always believed in giving young people a
(25:02):
chance to learn and grow in a real world environment.
Most of their staff are between ages fourteen and eighteen.
And they've always been eager to soak up knowledge and
do their best. But this year I think they did
more than their best. They actually saved the business. Last
September everything changed for Carol. She had a grand mall
seizure right on the restaurant floor.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
She was hospitalized for eight months. Much that time spent
in a coma. Chad stayed by your side, traveling back
and forth, and they would go to Minneapolis, and he
almost closed the restaurant, but he said, I didn't ask
one teenager to do anything extra. They all just did it.
Isn't that cool? So they all stepped up, teens took charge,
(25:43):
They prepped the food, They did every single thing that
needed to be done to make sure he could be
by his wife's love. That I do too. He said,
it's a family here. The sense of family didn't come
out of nowhere. Chad and Carroll had a long had
long supported their teen staff out of work, attending their
school events, sponsoring their activities, and offering with homework and
(26:07):
life challenges. So what a cool time.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
I love that story. What a great fat.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Choked up reading it. So I'm going to just stop
and we're going to put a link and if you'd
like to see that, you can. It's in the show
notes for today at Johndeidishow dot com. Isn't that just
the greatest?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
It's wonderful.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I love it. Time to say goodbye Heidi. Goodbye Heidi,
good by everybody. Have a great day. Thank you for
