those shoes?
Speaker 4 (00:39):
You're not supposed to wear them for anything other than
just walking from the sofa to the kitchen to get
yourself something to drink.

(01:30):
Heidi small Well.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Today is a special day in my book. It's Tony
Shaloub's birthday.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I too, I love I love him and then I
loved him on Monk.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
I love him and everything he's ever been in and
he's always completely different characters. The man is a brilliant.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
EPs And there was a movie we're watching and it
was It took me a bit for me to go, wait,
aitute is that Tony show? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Isn't that crazy? She's so talented? But anyways, we know
him most from Monk, which is a murder mystery we
just showing. It is a fantastic show. If you've never
watched Monk, I really do recommend.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
We've watched it up lately.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
But I found a cocktail called Murder Mystery in his honor,
and this actually sounds delicious. It's Scott Raspberri's blackberries, blueberries,
strawberry syrup, lemonade, gin or vodka and ice and it
sounds super yummy.
Speaker 3 (02:19):

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Now, surveys and studies and such clutter might seem harm less,
but a new survey says it is not, at least
not to your love life. The storage center pulled a
thousand people in relationships. They found more than one third
feel a messy partner can make them less attractive.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
I can't handle clutter. It's off.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Did you notice a tidy this?
Speaker 4 (03:17):
M yeah you did.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
When I say that, I mean I took it from
a giant stack and I put it into four little, small,
small stacks. But women are especially fed up. Sixty two
percent say their partner's chaos drives them crazy. Fifty percent
of men think the same way. Dirty laundry is the
main culprit. Thirty percent say clothing this piled up like
a volcano is a big turn off. Nineteen percent complained
about socks and underwear scattered everywhere, clutter, sparks, conflict. Sixty
(03:42):
one percent said it causes regular blow ups and something.
Some even admit to secretly tossing or accidentally breaking their
partner's things.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
He do what it is, we'd break your things?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
No, you donate my things. And I said, you know
where that is? And then she'll say, I don't know
where that is right now, because I know I dropped
it off behind the donation center. I don't know where
they put it. I've got a link to all of
this in the show notes for today at Johndeidishow dot com.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Heidi. Did you know that researchers at the University of
British Columbia have created the NFCEST, a system that lets
credit cards authenticate purchases through air gestures, so it's like
swiping or tapping or sliding rather than traditional pins, unlike
code gestures that are harder to observe or steal. Built
in near field communication gestures already powers contactless payments. What
(06:31):
does that mean?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
NFC just analyzes the electronic signals a card emits when
it's moved near a reader, so it's kind of like
tapping by training machine learning models to recognize none unique
movement patterns. It adds gesture based securulator, protecting users if
their card is lost or stolen. So so now I
just pull my card out and wave it and that
will charge the card. Does that seem where are we
(06:56):
fixing problems?
Speaker 4 (06:56):
We don't. It seems really bizarre because if you have
a card, you only have to remember nine different gestures
and try it all of them. Sooner or later? Are
you going to find the right ones?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Ecuse me, sir? What are you doing over there?
Speaker 7 (07:07):
I'm clapping try to pay for my groceries. You don't
have a card? Is that doesn't work?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
I do that now with paper towel things because I'm
used to you, like you wave your hand and it
spits them out, and then I'm in there just doing
this and then the guy next to me reached over
and just grabs it and pulls it out. I'm like, sorry,
I thought that was one of them fancy ones. We
don't know everything, but now we know this the Jon

beautiful bride, Heidi Small. What do you got for me?
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Heidi therapist says to her patient, you are addicted to
drinking break fluid, and the man says, I can stop
anytime I want.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
I see what he did. Hey, I want to just
make sure we tell people don't drink break fluid. It's
just a joke. Don't drink.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
Everybody knows that, I would hope.
Speaker 3 (08:11):

John and Heidi Show.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
Time Now for the scoop of the day. Take a
listen to this. A Rhode Island beer delivery truck tipped
over and spilled alcohol all over the freeway. Can you
even imagine that's a mess? I remember there was a
time where one of the beer trucks, you know how
the big doors roll up, they didn't roll the door
all the way down, and when they drove away, like
they hit a bump and it rolled up. And then
(09:06):
when they turned a bunch of beer cans fell out,
nikes and a lot of the beer was fine, but
it was all over the road for like two hours.
There's people out there picking up beer cans. I thought, wow,
that's not good and Chinese airline this is interesting. They're
set to launch what they're calling the world's longest flight
route December fourth, linking Buenos Aires, Argentina to Shanghai, China.
(09:30):
The journey is twelve thousand, five hundred miles. That's about
half of the globe's circumference. It's going to take twenty
nine hours, so over twenty four hours than twenty nine hours,
including a two hour stop in New Zealand where passengers
likely would not be allowed to leave the plane. What. Yeah,
they would just be refueling a Boeing seven seven seven
(09:52):
dash three.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Th better beer. We are very comfortable airplane.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah. They say they're going to fly this route twice weekly.
Eastbound flights will last twenty five hours. Well, the return
flight takes four hours longer. How much for this unique
form of torture economy? Fares are priced at fourteen hundred
to two thousand dollars business class just over four thousand
and five hundred dollars. So I don't think I would
be interested in that, because I remember we took a
(10:17):
flight that was what five hours or six hours or
somethe time I've.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Been on an eight It was a nine hour flight.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Miserble was that the one I don't know miser We
were on a flight that it seemed like it took
forever anyway, and I was like, yeah, not for me.
That is your scoop of the day on The John
and Heidie Show.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
The jonant Heidie Show.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Thank you so much for listening to The John and
Heidi Show. Brought to you in part by jascasemedical dot com.
Do you have a Ja's case. You can get all
of the details for free right now at jscasemedical dot com.
Time now for dear John letters. All right, Heidi, you
(10:56):
gotta pay attention over here, Dear John, my husband, My
It's easy for me to say. My husband and I
are at odds over Halloween. We have three kids, two
younger daughters and a son who just turned thirteen. He's
been watching scary movies with my husband the last few weeks.
They have a plan to watch a bunch of the
scary movies. My husband likes this whole month. This has
(11:16):
become a bonding thing for these two. I don't mind
them watching the movies. Our son is only thirteen, but
he's very grown up for his age. I'm spending the
same time with our girls, and we're having fun watching
other stuff. My son has always dressed up for Halloween
in the past, and it's always been something fun. This year,
he wants to dress up as something less fun and
more gory. I kind of want my little guy to
(11:37):
be a little guy for a few more years. I
feel like I'm talking out of both sides of my mouth, though,
because I'm okay with him watching these movies. I'm just
concerned that he might be the only thirteen year old
to be dressed more scary than fun. What do you
think Am I making this a big deal when it's not.
Should I step aside and let my husband and my
son get his costume on their own? Watching my little
(11:58):
guy grow up has been a lot of hard, harder
than I thought, signed mother, no longer Mommy, So I'm
gonna turn the tables here and ask my beautiful bride,
what do you think you have a mortified look on
your face.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
He's thirteen, Yeah, put the Barney costume away, mom, He's
not a kid anymore. He's a teenager now.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
I don't know that he was doing Barney stuff, but
I remember, I absolutely remember this when our kiddo went
from I want to be a firefighter and then like
it was the next year, he's like, I want to
be Freddy Krueger.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
He was seven.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
But what I'm saying is, I remember when that happened.
Was he seven?
Speaker 4 (12:31):
When he was seven?
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Okay, well, yeah, there's a big difference.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
First of all, I'm surprised that thirteen he's still even
going out trick or treating.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
He doesn't necessarily say he's going trick or treating, but
I think you know at school they do the dress
up stuff and costume thirteen, No you don't think so? No,
how old do they quit doing that?
Speaker 4 (12:51):
I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I did that till I was thirty. Maybe not quite that.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
No, if he wants to dress up, it's definitely time
for scary costumes at age thirteen. I'd be very concerned
if he wasn't wanting to be something more grown up
at this point.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
So here's one of the things while we're talking about this,
and I know this wasn't part of the question, but
I will say this.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
May probably don't make bluey costumes in his size.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
I will say this one of the things that took
me by surprise because we had not been home for
Halloween in a while, like we we had, you know,
done a little trips and we'd and it wasn't ever by design,
like I didn't. It's like we were trying to avoid it.
But it must have been last year or two years ago.
We happened to be home on Halloween, which was odd.
And I saw the kids, you know, come in to
(13:37):
the house. And one of the things that I was
a little taken aback by were some of the costumes
for little kids that were I didn't think they were
kid costumes at all. And it wasn't scary stuff. It
was like stuff that I thought was a little too scay. Yeah,
stuff where you know, like you go to an adult
(13:58):
Halloween party and you have some dress is like a
sexy nurse, that kind of thing. And there were some
of the costumes that I saw for little kids that
I was like, I don't know that I would addressed
my daughter in that outfit. So I don't know if
that's just young adults who have kids and they're like, oh,
I want my kid to look you know what. I
don't know that I was shocked by that this whole
concept here a thirteen year old being more scary than fun.
(14:22):
I think, Mama, I think your little boy is a
little man. He's officially a teenager now, so even last
year you could have said twelve, is twelve a teenager
because you don't say teen when you say twelve, But
now you say thirteen. The name thirteen, and when you're
(14:42):
saying you just don't want him to be the only
thirteen year old dressed more scary than fun, I think
that you'd be surprised, because, again, like my wife was saying,
our son, I didn't realize he was only seven. I
thought he was older than that when he was doing
that kind of stuff. But my wife and your husband
both like the scary movies. You would watch scary movies
(15:03):
with our son when he was a little guy. And
our daughter's not really a big scary movie person, is she.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
No? I mean she's getting better now.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
That she and I would watch all the teen dramas together.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
Oh my gosh, And you still do you still watch
these romance these?
Speaker 3 (15:18):
My daughter crame?
Speaker 7 (15:18):
Who have you seen this? It's a Hallmark movie. It's great,
good love. I don't want to ruin the ending, but
they get together. It's not quite that bad.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
No, here's what I will say if you would like
to chime in with some advice. This Dear John letter
is posted on our Facebook page. It's been there for
a few days already, and there's some really good comments
out there. You can chime in as well at Facebook

Me newsdesk with my beautiful bride, Heidi, what you got
(17:16):
for me?
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Heidi?
Speaker 4 (17:17):
The chicken McNugget totally changed chicken consumption.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
It did.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
It did at prior to nineteen eighty when the McNuggets
were introduced, beef was seventy six point four pounds of
consumption compared to forty seven point four pounds of chicken,
So that's a big difference. Then the McNugget was introduced,
(17:43):
and there was an immediate switch and that for the
first time ever, chicken outperformed beef with sixty six point
five pounds of chicken per person versus sixty five point
nine of beef. So it just bare topped it. But
it was like a quick turnaround and it's still just.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Had this discussion with a plumber friend of ours, how
do we get on chicken nuggets?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
With him?
Speaker 4 (18:08):
I have no idea.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
And then he was like, and I remember the first
time I ever heard their sweet and sours. And we're
reminiscing about our childhood because the chicken nugget became a
thing when we were all kids. Yeah, and they're different now.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
And now today Americans eat about twice as much chicken
as they do be Wow, And ninety percent of that
chicken is sold with the bones removed. And yeah, so
that's a big deal and that's news to me.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
I knew that?
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Cute? Is that did?
Speaker 4 (19:15):
The Taylor used to hiccups all the time because she
was a thumbsucker.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Even and when she was born she was sucking her
thumb too. It took forever to get her.

I see I have five, and I do use wine.
I have more. I probably have more than that, but
I use one.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
I have religiously cologns and I use one. You know
why the pump on the other one doesn't work. It's like,
I don't know what's wrong with this thing. And then
I dug around and I found the old one. I'm like,
there's still some of this left. What is this called turpentine? Yeah?
That works well.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Before you throw that other one away, make sure you
let me look at it, because if it was an
expensive one, we'll find a way to refill your other bottle.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
We'll just break it open. And that is your question
of the day on The John and Heidi Show. Did
Heidie thank you so much for listening to The John
and Heidi Show, brought to you in part by jscasemedical
dot com. Do you have a jays case? You can
get all of the details for free right now at
jscasemedical dot com. Time out for something special with Heidi Small.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
What do you have for me, Heidie, I've got some
more interesting grave site.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Oh yeah, we talked about this yesterday.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
Oscar Wilde.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
His tomb is decorated with a carved limestone figure bearing
wings the supernatural beings. Male genitals were in full view,
which caused quite the scandal in nineteen twelve when it
was revealed. I'll bet in nineteen sixty one the genitalia
were removed by some vandals. Oh well, and then the
entire stone, the entire monument now sits behind glass to
(23:48):
protect the stone.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Well that's better.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Johnny Ramone, who was the lead guitarist for the Ramones,
which I love the Ramones, always have he is his
is more elaborate than any of his music. Of his
music because his music was very punk, very different, but
his tombstone is elaborates and it's adorned with a life
(24:10):
size statue of him playing his instrument. I would actually
really like to see that. I'm gonna look that one
up and just see the picture. And Nicholas Cage, who
of course is not dead, but he's so interesting. This
guy is just so unique. Yeah, he already has he
already has it. He bought his plot in New Orleans
oldest cemetery. It's called Saint Louis Cemetery number one. Again
(24:33):
we did not get to go. And he has a tombstone.
But anyway, he commissioned a nine foot tall stone pyramid.
It's inscribed with the Latin phrase omni ab uno, which
is everything from one. The dude's interesting.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
He's interesting.
Speaker 4 (24:51):
He's not dead, but he's got it ready to go
for when he is. So anyways, yeah, I found that interesting.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
That is very interesting, something special with Heidi Small.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
Time now for the list. According to communications expert and
former world champion debater Kate Mason, PhD, many professionals are
overly concerned with ruffling feathers or being bothered or being
a bother at work. So here are some things to
not say in the workplace. Phrases you should avoid. It'll
just take a second. It's meant to be polite, but
(25:52):
it backfires because nothing takes a sea, and you're downplaying
how much work it really is. So it almost feels
as though what you're saying is I would have done
this in a second. It took you five hours, but
now it's going to be another one. No worries if
not this phrase weekends your request. If you're like, hey,
can you do this? It's really important. If you can,
it's not a big deal, Well then why you asked
(26:13):
me to do it if it's not a big deal.
And then another one. I'm not an expert, but by
saying that you're not an expert, it undercuts your authorities.
If you're going, hey, I know this is your world, sure,
but why don't you do this? I don't understand what
I'm saying, but can you explain it to me? So
those are some things, according to an expert, that you're
not supposed to say at work. And the last thing
(26:35):
is everything I say here we go not supposed to say.
That is the list on The John and Heidi Show,

(26:58):
We always like to wrap things up around here with
good and I think this is just a beautiful, lovely,
wonderful story. An old VHS tape remember those?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Oh Yeah?
Speaker 3 (27:06):
An old VHS tape helped this mother get her voice
back after twenty five years. Sarah Ezekiel found an old
VHS tape from the nineteen nineties. She thought it was
going to just be a neat little home movie of
her changing her changing her daughter's nappy. What is a
nappy a diaper?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Okay, so this is England. Hidden in this eight second
clip was something priceless the sound of her real voice,
her real voice. She was diagnosed with motor neuron disease
in two thousand lost the ability to speak. Since then,
she's relied on assistive technology to give her a robotic,
computerized voice.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
Oh, I know where this is going.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Children, Aviva and Eric, never heard what their mother really
sounded like. That change now because the family found this
short clip and while they were visiting, they found out, hey,
it's only eight seconds long, but is that enough? It
is enough. They took this eight second clip of her
voice and they utiliz is a think called smart Box,
a Bristol based assistive technology company. So cool to create
(28:06):
an actual voice of her voice. Now when she's talking,
it's her voice.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
That's cool.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
So Smartbox admitted this. They were doubtful at first. They said,
there's no way we're going to be able to do
anything using just eight seconds, but after looping the sample
through some different AI tools, they were able to do it.
When Sarah first heard it, she was overwhelmed. I love
having my voice back, she said. I almost cried when
I first heard it. It was a very emotional experience
and this was a gift for her children. The impact
(28:34):
for them was just as powerful. It was amazing, really
special and emotional to be able to hear her as herself,
no longer as a robot. Her son agreed, said, it
really does sound like her. It just comes across more
how she feels. I think this is really neat. I've
got a link to this story. It's in the show

Today is a special day in my book. It's Tony
Shaloub's birthday.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I too, I love I love him and then I
loved him on Monk.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
I love him and everything he's ever been in and
he's always completely different characters. The man is a brilliant.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
EPs And there was a movie we're watching and it
was It took me a bit for me to go, wait,
aitute is that Tony show? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Isn't that crazy? She's so talented? But anyways, we know
him most from Monk, which is a murder mystery we
just showing. It is a fantastic show. If you've never
watched Monk, I really do recommend.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
We've watched it up lately.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
But I found a cocktail called Murder Mystery in his honor,
and this actually sounds delicious. It's Scott Raspberri's blackberries, blueberries,
strawberry syrup, lemonade, gin or vodka and ice and it
sounds super yummy.

Now, surveys and studies and such clutter might seem harm less,
but a new survey says it is not, at least
not to your love life. The storage center pulled a
thousand people in relationships. They found more than one third
feel a messy partner can make them less attractive.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
I can't handle clutter. It's off.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Did you notice a tidy this?
Speaker 4 (03:17):
M yeah you did.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
When I say that, I mean I took it from
a giant stack and I put it into four little, small,
small stacks. But women are especially fed up. Sixty two
percent say their partner's chaos drives them crazy. Fifty percent
of men think the same way. Dirty laundry is the
main culprit. Thirty percent say clothing this piled up like
a volcano is a big turn off. Nineteen percent complained
about socks and underwear scattered everywhere, clutter, sparks, conflict. Sixty
(03:42):
one percent said it causes regular blow ups and something.
Some even admit to secretly tossing or accidentally breaking their
partner's things.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
He do what it is, we'd break your things?
Speaker 3 (03:53):
No, you donate my things. And I said, you know
where that is? And then she'll say, I don't know
where that is right now, because I know I dropped
it off behind the donation center. I don't know where
they put it. I've got a link to all of
this in the show notes for today at Johndeidishow dot com.

Speaker 3 (06:04):
Heidi. Did you know that researchers at the University of
British Columbia have created the NFCEST, a system that lets
credit cards authenticate purchases through air gestures, so it's like
swiping or tapping or sliding rather than traditional pins, unlike
code gestures that are harder to observe or steal. Built
in near field communication gestures already powers contactless payments. What
(06:31):
does that mean?
Speaker 4 (06:31):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
NFC just analyzes the electronic signals a card emits when
it's moved near a reader, so it's kind of like
tapping by training machine learning models to recognize none unique
movement patterns. It adds gesture based securulator, protecting users if
their card is lost or stolen. So so now I
just pull my card out and wave it and that
will charge the card. Does that seem where are we
(06:56):
fixing problems?
Speaker 4 (06:56):
We don't. It seems really bizarre because if you have
a card, you only have to remember nine different gestures
and try it all of them. Sooner or later? Are
you going to find the right ones?
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Ecuse me, sir? What are you doing over there?
Speaker 7 (07:07):
I'm clapping try to pay for my groceries. You don't
have a card? Is that doesn't work?
Speaker 3 (07:16):
I do that now with paper towel things because I'm
used to you, like you wave your hand and it
spits them out, and then I'm in there just doing
this and then the guy next to me reached over
and just grabs it and pulls it out. I'm like, sorry,
I thought that was one of them fancy ones. We
don't know everything, but now we know this the Jon

Speaker 3 (08:02):
I see what he did. Hey, I want to just
make sure we tell people don't drink break fluid. It's
just a joke. Don't drink.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
Time Now for the scoop of the day. Take a
listen to this. A Rhode Island beer delivery truck tipped
over and spilled alcohol all over the freeway. Can you
even imagine that's a mess? I remember there was a
time where one of the beer trucks, you know how
the big doors roll up, they didn't roll the door
all the way down, and when they drove away, like
they hit a bump and it rolled up. And then
(09:06):
when they turned a bunch of beer cans fell out,
nikes and a lot of the beer was fine, but
it was all over the road for like two hours.
There's people out there picking up beer cans. I thought, wow,
that's not good and Chinese airline this is interesting. They're
set to launch what they're calling the world's longest flight
route December fourth, linking Buenos Aires, Argentina to Shanghai, China.
(09:30):
The journey is twelve thousand, five hundred miles. That's about
half of the globe's circumference. It's going to take twenty
nine hours, so over twenty four hours than twenty nine hours,
including a two hour stop in New Zealand where passengers
likely would not be allowed to leave the plane. What. Yeah,
they would just be refueling a Boeing seven seven seven
(09:52):
dash three.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Th better beer. We are very comfortable airplane.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah. They say they're going to fly this route twice weekly.
Eastbound flights will last twenty five hours. Well, the return
flight takes four hours longer. How much for this unique
form of torture economy? Fares are priced at fourteen hundred
to two thousand dollars business class just over four thousand
and five hundred dollars. So I don't think I would
be interested in that, because I remember we took a
(10:17):
flight that was what five hours or six hours or
somethe time I've.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Been on an eight It was a nine hour flight.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Miserble was that the one I don't know miser We
were on a flight that it seemed like it took
forever anyway, and I was like, yeah, not for me.
That is your scoop of the day on The John
and Heidie Show.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
The jonant Heidie Show.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Thank you so much for listening to The John and
Heidi Show. Brought to you in part by jascasemedical dot com.
Do you have a Ja's case. You can get all
of the details for free right now at jscasemedical dot com.
Time now for dear John letters. All right, Heidi, you
(10:56):
gotta pay attention over here, Dear John, my husband, My
It's easy for me to say. My husband and I
are at odds over Halloween. We have three kids, two
younger daughters and a son who just turned thirteen. He's
been watching scary movies with my husband the last few weeks.
They have a plan to watch a bunch of the
scary movies. My husband likes this whole month. This has
(11:16):
become a bonding thing for these two. I don't mind
them watching the movies. Our son is only thirteen, but
he's very grown up for his age. I'm spending the
same time with our girls, and we're having fun watching
other stuff. My son has always dressed up for Halloween
in the past, and it's always been something fun. This year,
he wants to dress up as something less fun and
more gory. I kind of want my little guy to
(11:37):
be a little guy for a few more years. I
feel like I'm talking out of both sides of my mouth, though,
because I'm okay with him watching these movies. I'm just
concerned that he might be the only thirteen year old
to be dressed more scary than fun. What do you
think Am I making this a big deal when it's not.
Should I step aside and let my husband and my
son get his costume on their own? Watching my little
(11:58):
guy grow up has been a lot of hard, harder
than I thought, signed mother, no longer Mommy, So I'm
gonna turn the tables here and ask my beautiful bride,
what do you think you have a mortified look on
your face.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
He's thirteen, Yeah, put the Barney costume away, mom, He's
not a kid anymore. He's a teenager now.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
I don't know that he was doing Barney stuff, but
I remember, I absolutely remember this when our kiddo went
from I want to be a firefighter and then like
it was the next year, he's like, I want to
be Freddy Krueger.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
He was seven.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
But what I'm saying is, I remember when that happened.
Was he seven?
Speaker 4 (12:31):
When he was seven?
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Okay, well, yeah, there's a big difference.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
First of all, I'm surprised that thirteen he's still even
going out trick or treating.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
He doesn't necessarily say he's going trick or treating, but
I think you know at school they do the dress
up stuff and costume thirteen, No you don't think so? No,
how old do they quit doing that?
Speaker 4 (12:51):
I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
I did that till I was thirty. Maybe not quite that.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
No, if he wants to dress up, it's definitely time
for scary costumes at age thirteen. I'd be very concerned
if he wasn't wanting to be something more grown up
at this point.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
So here's one of the things while we're talking about this,
and I know this wasn't part of the question, but
I will say this.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
May probably don't make bluey costumes in his size.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
I will say this one of the things that took
me by surprise because we had not been home for
Halloween in a while, like we we had, you know,
done a little trips and we'd and it wasn't ever by design,
like I didn't. It's like we were trying to avoid it.
But it must have been last year or two years ago.
We happened to be home on Halloween, which was odd.
And I saw the kids, you know, come in to
(13:37):
the house. And one of the things that I was
a little taken aback by were some of the costumes
for little kids that were I didn't think they were
kid costumes at all. And it wasn't scary stuff. It
was like stuff that I thought was a little too scay. Yeah,
stuff where you know, like you go to an adult
(13:58):
Halloween party and you have some dress is like a
sexy nurse, that kind of thing. And there were some
of the costumes that I saw for little kids that
I was like, I don't know that I would addressed
my daughter in that outfit. So I don't know if
that's just young adults who have kids and they're like, oh,
I want my kid to look you know what. I
don't know that I was shocked by that this whole
concept here a thirteen year old being more scary than fun.
(14:22):
I think, Mama, I think your little boy is a
little man. He's officially a teenager now, so even last
year you could have said twelve, is twelve a teenager
because you don't say teen when you say twelve, But
now you say thirteen. The name thirteen, and when you're
(14:42):
saying you just don't want him to be the only
thirteen year old dressed more scary than fun, I think
that you'd be surprised, because, again, like my wife was saying,
our son, I didn't realize he was only seven. I
thought he was older than that when he was doing
that kind of stuff. But my wife and your husband
both like the scary movies. You would watch scary movies
(15:03):
with our son when he was a little guy. And
our daughter's not really a big scary movie person, is she.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
No? I mean she's getting better now.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
That she and I would watch all the teen dramas together.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
Oh my gosh, And you still do you still watch
these romance these?
Speaker 3 (15:18):
My daughter crame?
Speaker 7 (15:18):
Who have you seen this? It's a Hallmark movie. It's great,
good love. I don't want to ruin the ending, but
they get together. It's not quite that bad.
Speaker 3 (15:29):

Speaker 4 (17:17):
The chicken McNugget totally changed chicken consumption.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
It did.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
It did at prior to nineteen eighty when the McNuggets
were introduced, beef was seventy six point four pounds of
consumption compared to forty seven point four pounds of chicken,
So that's a big difference. Then the McNugget was introduced,
(17:43):
and there was an immediate switch and that for the
first time ever, chicken outperformed beef with sixty six point
five pounds of chicken per person versus sixty five point
nine of beef. So it just bare topped it. But
it was like a quick turnaround and it's still just.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Had this discussion with a plumber friend of ours, how
do we get on chicken nuggets?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
With him?
Speaker 4 (18:08):
I have no idea.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
And then he was like, and I remember the first
time I ever heard their sweet and sours. And we're
reminiscing about our childhood because the chicken nugget became a
thing when we were all kids. Yeah, and they're different now.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
And now today Americans eat about twice as much chicken
as they do be Wow, And ninety percent of that
chicken is sold with the bones removed. And yeah, so
that's a big deal and that's news to me.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
I knew that?
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Cute? Is that did?
Speaker 4 (19:15):
The Taylor used to hiccups all the time because she
was a thumbsucker.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Even and when she was born she was sucking her
thumb too. It took forever to get her.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
To stop to I think she still does.

Fun fact for you. Ray bands are called that because
they ban raise from the sun. I thought somebody's name. Yeah,
and we'll do one more fun fact for you, Heidie

Now, Bon appetite, Brooklyn Sea Wolf, the hip seafood joint
in the city is seeing a rising trend in pet
friendly establishments. They just unveiled a new menu, but only
for pups that get to see four legged Foodies can
now dive into or dig into a three course meal
a la bark menu for just nine dollars, which doesn't

sell that bad terrible, complete with a salmon jerky starter,
beef and sweet potato maine, and a coconut puppuccino for dessert.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
I love that. I would totally do that with myppuccino.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
The human grade house cuisine. I'm sorry. The human grade
hound cuisine comes courtesy of pet food brand. Ali, a
restaurant rep says that Seawolf wants every pet to feel
special just like their humans.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
I love that. So that's a great idea.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Would you be inside eating when they're in this area eating?
Or do you just drop the dogs off and go
we're going to the movies. We'll be back out.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
No, and I think you have to be there as well.
Speaker 3 (21:33):

more expensive for you. I'm sure you're news right here

Time out for the question of the day. This one's
for you, Heidi. The average woman has five of these
but only uses two of them regularly. What are they?
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (22:20):
My god?
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Five? I know you've got more than one. I don't
know if you've got five though. Bags no perfumes? Oh yeah, because.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
I see I have five, and I do use wine.
I have more. I probably have more than that, but
I use one.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
I have religiously cologns and I use one. You know
why the pump on the other one doesn't work. It's like,
I don't know what's wrong with this thing. And then
I dug around and I found the old one. I'm like,
there's still some of this left. What is this called turpentine? Yeah?
That works well.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
Before you throw that other one away, make sure you
let me look at it, because if it was an
expensive one, we'll find a way to refill your other bottle.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
We'll just break it open. And that is your question
of the day on The John and Heidi Show. Did
Heidie thank you so much for listening to The John
and Heidi Show, brought to you in part by jscasemedical
dot com. Do you have a jays case? You can
get all of the details for free right now at
jscasemedical dot com. Time out for something special with Heidi Small.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
What do you have for me, Heidie, I've got some
more interesting grave site.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Oh yeah, we talked about this yesterday.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
Oscar Wilde.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
His tomb is decorated with a carved limestone figure bearing
wings the supernatural beings. Male genitals were in full view,
which caused quite the scandal in nineteen twelve when it
was revealed. I'll bet in nineteen sixty one the genitalia
were removed by some vandals. Oh well, and then the
entire stone, the entire monument now sits behind glass to
(23:48):
protect the stone.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Well that's better.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
Johnny Ramone, who was the lead guitarist for the Ramones,
which I love the Ramones, always have he is his
is more elaborate than any of his music. Of his
music because his music was very punk, very different, but
his tombstone is elaborates and it's adorned with a life
(24:10):
size statue of him playing his instrument. I would actually
really like to see that. I'm gonna look that one
up and just see the picture. And Nicholas Cage, who
of course is not dead, but he's so interesting. This
guy is just so unique. Yeah, he already has he
already has it. He bought his plot in New Orleans
oldest cemetery. It's called Saint Louis Cemetery number one. Again
(24:33):
we did not get to go. And he has a tombstone.
But anyway, he commissioned a nine foot tall stone pyramid.
It's inscribed with the Latin phrase omni ab uno, which
is everything from one. The dude's interesting.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
He's interesting.
Speaker 4 (24:51):
He's not dead, but he's got it ready to go
for when he is. So anyways, yeah, I found that interesting.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
That is very interesting, something special with Heidi Small.
Speaker 8 (25:00):

Speaker 3 (25:32):
Time now for the list. According to communications expert and
former world champion debater Kate Mason, PhD, many professionals are
overly concerned with ruffling feathers or being bothered or being
a bother at work. So here are some things to
not say in the workplace. Phrases you should avoid. It'll
just take a second. It's meant to be polite, but
(25:52):
it backfires because nothing takes a sea, and you're downplaying
how much work it really is. So it almost feels
as though what you're saying is I would have done
this in a second. It took you five hours, but
now it's going to be another one. No worries if
not this phrase weekends your request. If you're like, hey,
can you do this? It's really important. If you can,
it's not a big deal, Well then why you asked
(26:13):
me to do it if it's not a big deal.
And then another one. I'm not an expert, but by
saying that you're not an expert, it undercuts your authorities.
If you're going, hey, I know this is your world, sure,
but why don't you do this? I don't understand what
I'm saying, but can you explain it to me? So
those are some things, according to an expert, that you're
not supposed to say at work. And the last thing
(26:35):
is everything I say here we go not supposed to say.
That is the list on The John and Heidi Show,

(26:58):
We always like to wrap things up around here with
good and I think this is just a beautiful, lovely,
wonderful story. An old VHS tape remember those?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Oh Yeah?
Speaker 3 (27:06):
An old VHS tape helped this mother get her voice
back after twenty five years. Sarah Ezekiel found an old
VHS tape from the nineteen nineties. She thought it was
going to just be a neat little home movie of
her changing her changing her daughter's nappy. What is a
nappy a diaper?
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Okay, so this is England. Hidden in this eight second
clip was something priceless the sound of her real voice,
her real voice. She was diagnosed with motor neuron disease
in two thousand lost the ability to speak. Since then,
she's relied on assistive technology to give her a robotic,
computerized voice.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
Oh, I know where this is going.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Children, Aviva and Eric, never heard what their mother really
sounded like. That change now because the family found this
short clip and while they were visiting, they found out, hey,
it's only eight seconds long, but is that enough? It
is enough. They took this eight second clip of her
voice and they utiliz is a think called smart Box,
a Bristol based assistive technology company. So cool to create
(28:06):
an actual voice of her voice. Now when she's talking,
it's her voice.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
That's cool.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
So Smartbox admitted this. They were doubtful at first. They said,
there's no way we're going to be able to do
anything using just eight seconds, but after looping the sample
through some different AI tools, they were able to do it.
When Sarah first heard it, she was overwhelmed. I love
having my voice back, she said. I almost cried when
I first heard it. It was a very emotional experience
and this was a gift for her children. The impact
(28:34):
for them was just as powerful. It was amazing, really
special and emotional to be able to hear her as herself,
no longer as a robot. Her son agreed, said, it
really does sound like her. It just comes across more
how she feels. I think this is really neat. I've
got a link to this story. It's in the show
notes for today at Johnandeidishow dot com. Time say good bye, Heide,
(28:56):
good Bye Heidi, Goodbye everybody. Have a great day. Thank
you for listening to The John and Heide Show. On
