Well, today's Comic book Day. It is, yes, And I

named cocktails. And there's one for Ironman, there's one for
Black Widow, there's one for Superman. There's one called the
Hammered Hulk.

Speaker 2 (01:16):

Now surveys and studies and such. Heidi, what's my favorite?

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Fly? Quick?

Speaker 3 (02:00):
You don't have a favorite?

Speaker 2 (02:01):
I do too? Tulips your two lips. Well, according to
a new survey, one in four of us don't have
a clue. The poll of two thousand people in the
US found that just twenty four percent of those who
believe their partner had a favorite flower were able to
name it. Twenty two percent couldn't even identify what it
would look like. Still, flowers play a big role in relationships.

(02:23):
About seventy three percent said they'd accept them as an apology.
Twenty nine percent would forgive a missed Valentine's Day if
they gave them flowers, twenty eight percent of forgotten birthday.
A quarter said they'd received flowers monthly, so monthly, twenty
four percent yeah crazy, a few times a year, nineteen
percent never is, nineteen percent a few times a year.
That is just wild? And some other interesting results. Seventy

(02:46):
six percent were able to identify these flowers, Seventy six
percent knew what a sunflower was, sixty eight percent knew
what a rose looked like, thirty eight percent knew what
an orcid look like, and only nine percent could identify
a rankulus.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
I could identify all of them, but are rankular?

Speaker 2 (03:01):
I know what that is? Rose is a favor for
the older generation. Gen Z likes tulips and sunflowers. Millennials
like lilies and sunflowers, interesting surveys and studies and such
on The John and Heidie Show, The Jon.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Yeah, I still do. I kind of like those movies.
A Superman movie has flown into HBO Max streaming service. Now.
The film made six hundred and fifteen million dollars at
the global box office this summer. I'm assuming it's six
hundred and fifteen million. I'm gonna put an m there.
It just said six hundred and fifteen dollars. I think
it did better, probably a little more, and Colin Farrell

(04:06):
accidentally dropped a naughty word while he was on The
Today Show and it was the F bomb. Ooh yeah,
he was problem Yeah it is. So he was talking

When they were chatting. She said something and then he said,

(05:49):
joke of the day with my beautiful bride, Heidi Small.
What do you have for me? Heidi?

Speaker 3 (05:53):
The most currup CEOs are the ones that run pretzel companies.
They're always so twisted.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
I was confused for second. I'm like why would they
be correct? I see what you did there, little play
on words. Yeah, that is the joke of the day
from my beautiful bride, Heidi.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Time out for the scoop of the day. This is interesting.
A study found that only nineteen percent of adults would
buy a used hat. Would you buy a used hat?
I don't buy hats, so it doesn't my head is
Isn't that weird?

Speaker 3 (06:56):
I won't even try on hats, and I mean I
see people trying on hats and stores it's like, oh,
that's a that's a bad idea.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
I think I probably would buy a used hat if
it was a cool hat, then I'd make sure it's
nice and clean before, so I don't know, maybe I'm
a weirdo. Two of the Internet's most notorious names are
joining forces. LimeWire, once associated with pirated music downloads, has
now purchased the rights to the infamous fry Festival or
fire Festival I always say it wrong f y r

(07:25):
e Fire Festival brand. The deal was sealed in September
through an eBay auction, with LimeWire outbidding somebody else that
really wanted it. You know who he wanted it. Ryan
Reynolds was the second bidder Okay, his creative agency. Several
other contenders as well, but those two were the two biggies.
The final price came in at just over two hundred
and forty five thousand dollars, relatively modest sum for a

(07:48):
name that still commands headlines years after its downfall. The
Fire Festival captured attention in twenty seventeen when luxury villas
and gourmet catering and the Bahamas were promised, but does
aster ensued, stranding festival goers and causing the now iconic
cheese sandwich photo that went viral. So twenty seventeen, that's
how long ago that was?

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Yeah, that doesn't seem like it was quite that far.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
And here's the thing, why would you want that brand?

Speaker 3 (08:13):
I don't know. I mean, I guess because I mean
it's not good name recognition, So I have no clue.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah, I guess we'll see what they do, so we'll see. Yeah,
I just think that boy, I would have come up
with my own name. So well, Ryan, you still have
time scoop of the day right there on the John
and Heidie Show.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
The Heidie Show.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Thank you so much for listening to The John and
Heidie Show, brought to you in part by jacecasemedical dot com.
Do you have a JAS case? You can get all
of the details for free right now at jscasemedical dot com.
Time now for Dear John letters. J all right, I

(08:54):
got a nice Dear John letter here and uh, here
goes Dear John. My husband has four grown children, one
from a first marriage and three from his late wife.
Talk about drama. Who talks to whom? Who can't stand whom?
Who gets annoyed when one of them comes to visit us.
They could be BFFs today and tomorrow stab one another
in the back. Social media has only made matters worse recently,

(09:17):
my husband has been saying he'd like to see his
four children and all of his grandchildren together. Actually, his
exact words were, I guess the only time I'll see
my grandkids and kids all in one room is when
they come to my funeral. Well, my husband has a
milestone birthday approaching. I've been thinking about having a surprise
party for him at a restaurant and inviting all of
the kids and all of the grandkids. I thought about

(09:39):
texting or emailing all of them with a note letting
them know their dad's wishes and asking them to be
civil to one another at least for a few hours,
just for Dad. I also wanted to know that if
they cannot do that, they should just not accept the invitation.
How do I make that happen? Signed the adult in
the room. Well, I think this is sad that this

(09:59):
is probably more common than most people realize. I know
that there are people in many of the families that
I know that don't necessarily come to things because they
don't get along with the other people. I feel very
blessed that my family, for the most part, gets along
really well. Oh yeah, and there are times where there's
a you know, I had a brother that says something

(10:20):
horrible to a sister when she was getting married. Thank goodness,
that's all behind us now, he goes, I'll just come
to the next one. Yeah, how horrible is that? I'm like,
why would you say that? Anyway? Yeah, I think this
is more common than you realize. And I'll bet there's
a lot of people that do have some good advice.
Do you have an advice, any advice for this young lady.

Speaker 3 (10:40):
I say it's a good idea to reach out to
all of them ahead of time and say, your dad,
it would mean a lot to him if you guys
could all get along just for this day. Yeah, but
still invite them all. It doesn't matter if they don't.
They're the ones that look bad, not you. Yeah, exactly,
So it's no skin off your back. If they decide
to act like a bunch of children and store them out,
let them do that. But but definitely invite them all.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
And here's the thing that I will say. My beautiful
bride over here, when she and I first met, part
of the like deciding whether or not it was going
to work with us, was she said, Christmas Eve, my
family does a thing Christmas Eve, and this is where
I'm going to be three hundred and sixty four days
out of the year, whatever you want to do, but

(11:24):
this day, for sure, and we did that. And sadly,
when Grandma and Grandpa passed away, we've done that.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
The last fell apart, it did, It doesn't happen anymore.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Social media is to blame for that. It absolutely is,
because there was like, you know, a little spat and
you've got friends and I'm not I say friends, relatives,
people that are loved ones that you're not even connected
on social media.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
That I was like one of my cousins, I was
best friends, friend, and now we don't even speak and
it's so sad.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
Yeah, but you know what, when there were funerals, we've
gotten together. Everybody's been there. And I think if there
was somebody in the family celebrating a milestone birthday, I
know that you would rise above and behave and I
think think they would too. So I think it's possible.
I don't think that this is an impossibility, but everybody
on both sides need to realize that, you know, even

(12:10):
if we don't agree on everything, we can agree that
we love dad and we want to be there for
him and if his birthday is somewhere, you know, a
special and it's a surprise party, the biggest surprise of
the day could be him watching all of his family
get together. Yeah, and that would be the nicest gift
of the day as well, you know, no matter what

(12:31):
he's getting as far as gifts for his birthday, the
best gift would literally just be him seeing all of
his grandkids and all of his children together and not
squabbling and fighting. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
So absolutely, And I.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Know there's more, and you know, in this particular one
one child from his first marriage, three from his late wife.
You know. So, But it doesn't it doesn't even have
to be different different spouses, even families where they're all
from the same two can have the problem. I don't
know what I was trying to say it I don
my brand in the middle of that sentence, but I

(13:04):
would love it if you would chime in with advice.
And I bet you've got some good advice. You can
do that on our Facebook page Facebook dot com slash
John and Heidi Show.

Yeah, eye before E except for nine hundred and twenty
three other ways.

weird news. The thirty fifth annual ig Nobel Prizes were
handed out in Boston recently, celebrating quirky science that makes

(17:38):
people laugh before making them think. This year's winners included
researchers who found that painting cows with zebra stripes cut
horsefly bites by nearly half. Rip on the rainbow lizards
in Togo prefer four cheese pizza. The Literature Prize went
to William B. Bean for tracking the growth of his
fingernails over thirty five years, while the Pediatrics Honoree study

(18:00):
how garlic in a mother's diet affects nursing infants. Other
awards recognize studies on narcissists being told that they are intelligent,
eating teflon to feel full, alcohol's effect on foreign language skills,
smelly shoes, and the effects of alcohol on the flights
of bats, and pasta sauce. Physics experts say such curiosity

(18:22):
driven research, however, odd often lays the groundwork for major breakthroughs.
The tradition at the irreverent event, however, we say that
the audience now it says irreverent, so I think I
did see it right. The audience once again honored winners
by throwing paper airplanes at them. So yes, never been
to it probably won't be going anytime soon. Here is

on the John and Heidi Show.

have to fill out a form or anything.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
Try to make your own delicious pumpkin spice latte at home,
then dump it out because the recipe was a big
fat liar. Then go to the store and get the
real fat. Paint your nails nice fall shades of cocoa
that actually make you look like you stuck your fingers
in poo. Don't do that one. Get lost in a
corn maze, I mean, like really really lost, Watch a

(22:52):
spooky movie with your kids, then subsequently let them sleep
in your bed for two weeks and remind them that
witches are not real. Big pumpkin bread, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin roll,
pumpkin pie. Then cry when you realize you've gained thirteen pounds.
Hang a decorative wreath on your front door so you'll
have to use brute force just to get your door
shut for the next thirty days. And we'll do one more.

(23:15):
Make a a warm apple sighter to enjoy on a
sunny on a Sunday afternoon. Then remember sighter is actually
gross and you hate it. A realistic fall bucket list.

to wrap things up around here. With good news, and
I think this is good news. What a cool story.

(23:48):
Here's the headline, bride's landlord becomes the father figure she
never expected. So when a Cincinnati bride, Chicole Fox, imagined
her wedding day, one part of the celebrate she always
felt incomplete the walk down the aisle. She never knew
her dad most of her life. She believed that fact
wouldn't bother her, but as her big day was getting closer,

(24:08):
she admitted, boy, this has really kind of become painful.
When I thought, who would I want to ask to
walk me down the aisle? She was trying to think
what would that look like? And then she came up
with a really cool idea the most unlikely person ever,
her seventy nine year old landlord, Gil Pulliam. How cool
is that he owns the studio space where she works

(24:30):
as a makeup artist and is known as kind of
a tough, but kind hearted man. Though she never asked
Pulliam since the moment might be difficult for her, and
he's decided to offer something that she never expected, so
she said, yeah, I would absolutely love to have you
do that. Because she had been talking about I don't
know how I have to do this. You know, it
was really bothering her. And that's what he's like, if

(24:50):
you want you know, I don't need to, but if
you want me to, I'll walk you down the aisle.
They happened to be connected by him owning a building
where she rents a space, and I love the fan
act that now he's a bigger part of her life
because of that, and.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
I can see how that would be. This is yet
another area where having a father figure in your life
is so so important. And I love that this man
stepped up and said I would love to do that
for you. It helps make her day that much more special.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
So the music is playing, I'm getting ready to walk
down the aisle, and he grabbed my hands so tight,
and it was a really good feeling. Yeah, it still
is like a wound has now been healed in my heart.

Speaker 3 (25:24):
Oh.
