Hey you.
Hey you. You like hot honey? I do like hot honey. So does a lot of other people and now they are coming out with a hot honey flavored bacon. Oh yeah it's hot honey all the things. I've said this before that hot honey is the new pumpkin spice.
I said that before. We've said that before that hot honey is the new pumpkin spice. I'm not gonna try to argue about who said it. Roll back in the podcast archives if you're that into the hot honey and figure out who said it and send us an email. It's wakeupclassy97atgmail.com which by the way you can use that email to email the show anytime. You got comments, you got things you want to talk about, you want to be a guest on the show maybe. I don't know. Why not?
Wake upclassy97atgmail.com you can send us an email. And somebody who listens to the show go back in, figure out who originally brought up hot honey is the pumpkin spice of today. I'm pretty sure it was me. I'll give you five bucks if you can find out that it was me and tell me that and include the audio. I will give you five bucks. There's monetary investment now.
You're gonna pay someone five dollars if they go through all of the previous episodes and figure out who was the first one to say hot honey is the new pumpkin spice. Yeah. Man, I'm pretty sure it was me.
But that's all right. We'll find out. If it was her, she'll pay you five bucks. If it wasn't her, you'll owe her five bucks. No, you won't owe me. No, but she'll be so angry.
I will be so mad at you. Yeah. Anyway, Smithfield Bacon is claiming that the combination of hot honey and bacon is the best of tradition and trend on one plate. You'll be able to get this at grocery stores nationwide throughout October. So if you keep your eyes open for Smithfield hot honey bacon, I would like to try it.
Me too. I'll tell you, I like it a whole lot more than maple bacon because maple bacon, it'd be gross. I don't like it when people put maple in stuff. I don't.
I do. That's why I hate the McGrittle. I love the McGrittle. I don't because it's got maple flavor. And I actually like putting sausage on my or putting syrup on my sausage and on my bacon. You put it on your eggs.
You put it everywhere. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not into syrup. Sugar water. Sugar water. What's not to like?
I don't understand your beef. I like raw maple on a paleo pancake. One of my favorite things we've ever made.
Or with the almond butter on there. Yeah. Love it. Love it. Love it. Love it.
Love it. Do that with a little bit of that raw maple. I don't like the imitation maple syrup. I think it's disgusting. Sugar water.
It's gross. It's not even water. With brown food color. It's sugar.
It's liquefied sugar. Yeah. With brown coloring. Gross. Gross. But I also like, I don't like maple bars. Why? I don't. And I don't like it when people put bacon on top of a maple bar. Stop it.
Okay. I don't like maple. I don't like maple bacon. I like the raw maple syrup. I don't like the maple flavoring. It's not real.
And it doesn't taste like actual maple syrup. Okay. That's all I'm saying.
It's okay. So give me Mike's hot honey bacon. I might like that. Give me Mike's hot honey donut.
I might be like, this is it. Put bacon on it. Hot honey is so good.
Yeah. Quit making maple. Start making more hot honey.
Hot honey all the things. Yeah. All right. You said that first. I said hot honey all the things. Or did I say that hot honey is, is the, is the new pumpkin spice. Yeah. I said that. I don't think you did. We're going to find out. Wake up classy 97 at gmail.com.
Let's start the show. Well, happy new music from Taylor Swift Day. The album came out last night. And so if anyone is awake this morning, it's only because they stayed up all night listening to the new album over and over and over. It came out last week. What? No, the actual full album release was last night.
Like today you can like people were lined up at the store to buy it at like midnight. I see. Kind of kind of thing. So when she was on the podcast, she was announcing a new album.
Oh, here's my new album. Okay. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. So the life of a showgirl is is out. It's yeah. So I think like 10 o'clock our time or so it came out because it comes out everywhere at the same time. Well, congratulations, Swifties. Yeah. I did not listen. And apparently people are loving it. The one song that I have heard, I haven't heard the whole thing at all, but one song I did hear sounded like it was Teenage Dirtbag from Weedus. What?
Yeah. Why'd she take that song? I don't think she took that song. It's just that like the way she structured that song, you could lay it over the top of the music from Weedus. Taylor, Swift, don't be doing that.
Oh, she could have given writing credit if she needed to. Yeah, that Teenage Dirtbag song. I know you do. And if she takes claim to that and all the Swifties are like, that's her song. No, they're not the same song. I understand what you're saying. It doesn't sound the same.
I'm just saying that melodically you could put the you could layer them. I'll find it. I'll play it for you.
You'll hear it. I'm not excited about it. Now I'm mad. Don't be mad.
There's nothing to be mad about. One, you're not Weedus. You're gatekeeping Weedus. Yeah.
And then two, you're not Weedus. So there's nothing to be upset about. Getting all worked up about something that isn't a thing. I get worked up about stuff sometimes. I know that about you.
I know that about you. Yep. Anyway, big party for a lot of people. And I'm trying to think what else. I think that's it.
That's it for the whole day. Well, no, I haven't looked ahead. I just, it's Friday. That's good. We got that going for us. Congrats.
We're here. Today is National Boyfriend Day. I had a boyfriend once. Did you?
Yeah. And then he turned it to my husband. Oh, you're talking about that guy. Yeah.
What's his name? I don't remember. Yeah. Forgotten. Sure. Sure. It's also Techies Day and Techies.
Yeah. Techies. Like anybody who likes tech?
Like people that techies. Yeah. Okay. And then Smile Day and No Sugar Day. So.
No Sugar Day. Get out of here. Yeah. You get out of here with no sugar. Get out of here. Get out of here.
Why? Yeah. Yeah. That's what I know. That's it.
That's everything. And it's Friday. This is Friday.
Good one. As we were leaving this morning, you said, I got to quit the sedentary lifestyle. That's what you said to me. I didn't say it to you. I said it near you as more to myself. Okay. I kind of said it at you. Okay. I didn't, you know, whatever.
Does that matter? Well, I just didn't want, you know, it sounded maybe like you were lumping yourself into it. Like I was saying you also shouldn't have a sedentary lifestyle.
That's true. I just feel like I have been doing a lot of sitting as of late. Same.
I haven't been like going on a walk like I like to. I know. I agree with you. That's why I've got a new trend for you. What is it?
And me. It's called the 50 jump trend. 50 jumps?
Yeah. What are we jumping? The minute you get out of bed, you jump in place 50 times.
That's it. It's supposed to be a quick way to get your blood flowing first thing in the morning. And it also gets oxygen to your brain first thing after waking up. We aren't renters, but could you imagine somebody every morning at early when we wake up, you got two people jumping up and down on your ceiling?
No. I would lose my mind. I would lose my mind too. Like stop.
What are you doing? Yeah. No way.
Get out of here. If you're not in the habit of exercising. That's me. Weak. Hey. To me, I was looking in the mirror. I was winging at myself. What mirror? You're looking at me. I'm not a mirror.
No, I have a mirror right here. Something quick and easy you can do and you're more likely to follow through with it since it doesn't involve putting on shoes or going outside. 50 jumps.
50 jumps. Okay. First thing in the morning. Jumping rope is a big deal. How high do you have to jump? Nothing. You just jump as high as you can. You didn't say that. It doesn't say like a height thing.
Like am I supposed to jump real high and smack my knees with my hands while I'm in the air? No. That's good. You just like quick little bursts. Are they hops? Or jumps? It jumps.
Okay. Is that bigger than a hop, would you say? Oh. I feel like a hop is little.
Okay. So then just do some hops. No, if you have to classify it as a jump, it's not just like you got to jump. You see the difference?
That's the difference between a hop and a jump. Okay. When we get done with this break, we're going to try it. We are? Yeah. We're going to do 50 jumps. 50's so many.
I know. What if the blood starts flowing? That's what then we're going to be awake and moving in a light.
A light, I was going to say, alive and alert. We're going to give it a go. Oxygen's going to come to our brains.
I could use some of that. Okay. 50 jumps.
50. I want to see your jumps. I want to see what you classify as a jump and not a hop. I'm going to just do, if you're classifying the little jumps as hops, then I'm just going to hops. I'm going to have to look up hop versus jump, aren't I?
I'm going to have to do research. One specialist said, hey, listen, is this effective? Movement is movement. He said any movement is good.
So if this makes you move, keep doing it. Okay. So if I squeeze in a few hops, it's going to be okay. Yeah, we're going to do it. I'm going to end this break. Okay.
Are you ready to be a hop and jumper? Yes. Okay. Here we go.
Oh, this is a cool good news story. So there is a Doberman named Knight. N-I-G-H-T. Knight. Okay. Knight.
Just inducted into the Purina Animal Hall of Fame. What'd he do? Well, I would guess a guy. I don't really know. I don't think it, yeah, it's a he.
Okay. Back in May of 2024, Craig Campbell and Knight went for a hike on a trail near their home in Alberta. That is when they encountered a mama grizzly bear in her two cubs. The bear stood up on its back legs and was poised to attack. Craig said it happened so fast he didn't have time to get his bear spray out of his pocket.
Oh no. It was a very surprising thing and that is when Knight jumped in, literally leaped between his owner Craig and the grizzly bear and that gave Craig enough time to arm himself himself, but he didn't need to because the bear huffed and then went back to her cubs and Craig said most dogs will flee from a bear. My dog runs at them. He's a very brave dog and for saving his owner from a grizzly bear, Knight is now in the Purina Animal Hall of Fame. Oh, what kind of dog? Doberman. Oh, I thought it was going to be a jack russel.
Negative. Although she probably would run at it too. I bet she would. I bet our dog, and listen, she's a little bit fierce. She's fast and feisty. Yes, she is. She's got a little bit of an attitude, so I bet she would be like, oh, not today bear. Right.
Yeah, that's not happening. She would do that noise, especially if it's you. If the bear was coming toward me.
Mm-hmm. Do you think she'd protect me? Yeah, you get out of the range of where she can reach and she freaks out. Yeah, she will protect you.
I think she would too. She's your buddy. She is my buddy. She's pretty cute. She's a scruffy one right now. I know, she's got these little horns on the top of her head.
Little cowlicks. It's pretty great. I kind of want to see how shaggy she can get. I know. It looks like she has pants.
I know, she's got on furry shaggy pants and starting to get onto the sides, onto the flanks. Have you seen those those TikTok videos where the owners pretend that they're being burglarized to see what their dogs will do? I don't know. Like there's a burglar quote, unquote, but it's like a friend of theirs, but they've got like a mask on and they come into the house and it's set up. It's a set up to see what the dogs will do. Most dogs will go, hey, hey, hey, what's going on here? But there are some dogs that are like, oh, someone's here.
Yeah, I don't want to deal with this. I'm curious to see what our dog would do. She would bark a lot. Yeah, she would. But would she attack you think? No, I don't know.
Maybe. I think she'd go for some feet. She hates, yeah, she hates feet. So you think she'd attack ankles? I think so.
Very possible. She might jump and push at them too. She's good at that. She's a big pusher. Well, good job.
Congratulations tonight for saving his owner from the bear. That's what I'm saying. That's good news. All right, I've been trying to do some research. Sweet and low, the little sugar packets, I've been finding them in different places. And I found out yesterday that there is a little brass sweet and low holder that a bunch of people had made monogrammed and everything in the 60s. In the 60s. Yeah, huge deal to have this little brass sweet and low sweetener, little purse thing that you could carry it in. And I'm trying to figure out who originally made it and why and whatever.
But here's the deal. Sweet and low in 1957 kind of capitalized on being a calorie free sugar alternative, a sweetener, right? But for the first six years of its launch, it was not available at the grocery store. So you could only get it if you went to a restaurant, which means if you wanted to have sweet and low at home, you had to take it from the restaurant.
And so to help people carry it around because it wasn't something you just had readily available, they made these little carrying cases so that people could grab a few packets from the cafe or diner or whatever and then carry them with them. And that's what that's about. And there you go. It's been driving me nuts. Why is it been driving you nuts? Because why is there a little brass monogrammed sweet and low case?
Why did this exist? And a lot of people have them. There's a ton of them posted online. And I can't find out who made them because sweet and low didn't make them. They're branded. So when you open it up on the inside, it says sweet and low.
But it still doesn't make sense. Like who was like, people want to carry this around. People were like modifying other things so that they could carry carry their sweet and low. Yeah, they were modifying other cases and little clutches and different and different little pouches and stuff to be able to carry the sweet and low. But they anyway, the monogrammed little brass case is for real a thing.
And that's all I have to say about that. Okay, it's for real a thing because you saw it. No, I know, but I thought it was a one-off. I thought like this is this the only one of these that exists?
I actually thought that too. I thought it was specially made. No, it's it is not that it is actually put together by somebody specifically to carry sweet and low.
So anyway, there you go. If you need a sweet and low container, there is one. Hey, make them. You can get a fancy little case. I'm trying to think what else you could put in there. You could put actual sugar packet. Yeah, you could.
Any other small pouch packet of something. Let's catch up. Catch up.
You could put catch up packets. Those you probably wouldn't because the sweet and low lays a little bit flatter. But the catch of packets are a little bit thick. You know what I mean? I see.
So you wouldn't be able to hold as many ketchup packets as you could sweet and low. Right. I get what you're saying. See what I'm saying.
I do. You know, you can buy, you know, the little tabletop things that you find at the little restaurants that hold the little sugar packets. You can just buy those. I have one.
The little box that you stack all the little sugars and stuff. You have one. Yeah. What for? And where did you get it?
I played the fifth. Oh, why do you have it? Because I wanted one. Huh. I've had it for years.
So where is it? What's the statue of limitations? I don't know what the statute of limitations is. Did you say statue? I did say statue. This right here is called the statue of limitations. It stands next to David. This is the statue of David and this is the statue of limitations. It's a poorly sculpted.
It has arms. I'm just saying. I'm not going to tell you how I procured that item or where I can't even remember where the item came from. Was I there when you did it? I can't be sure. If you made me an accessory. I can't even. It was in my younger days.
I was young and stupid and dangerous. Where is it now? I am almost sure that it is. I don't know. I think it's. Okay. I'll go home and find it.
All righty. Today. Today? Do you think it's in the pantry or is it somewhere else? No.
It's. Josh Allen. Quarterback of the bills.
Yes. I'm going to call him good guy, Josh Allen. What I know from his backstory is that he played in college, but he wasn't necessarily good enough to turn the NFL's eye and he transferred to a college in Wyoming and he desperately fought for the NFL to look at him, but they just didn't really seem to think that he was anything great and he like wrote right letters to them and then finally he did get the attention of them and was drafted.
I think he was drafted seventh in the seventh round. Okay. That's not bad.
I believe I could be completely wrong by that. Anyway, and he's great. Like he's a really good quarterback. So now I bet all those people who like didn't think anything of him are like, oh, we should have given that.
I love stories like that. Right. Where he's like, you missed me. You missed your opportunity.
Yeah. But he's a good guy. Like it would be so easy for him to have kind of an ego and be like, yeah, see what I can do. Like all you jerks wouldn't pay any attention to me.
And now look, now look at me. Yeah. Do you know who he's married to? No.
Hailey Stein. Yes. I knew that. I don't necessarily know who she is. Oh, she is an actress and a singer. She was in like Pitch Perfect two and three.
She was in True Grit. Okay. Anyway, they got married this year. This story is not about her. No, I'm just saying. You just didn't know who she was.
I watched a bit year right. I did ask. I'm sorry. I'll just be over here.
Go on now. I watched a video yesterday. And I don't know when this video was taken, but he goes around to all of his team and tells them how much he loves them. Oh, does he give them all like high fives and hugs and things? No, it's like he just like goes around and he's like, Hey, man, I love you. I love you.
And I think that is awesome because I think men need to show more displays of affection for other men. I see. And I think sometimes that's like a social taboo and you can't do that. And what better place to do that than in a very masculine sport?
I see. Where the years these masculine dudes that are like, Hey, man, you're on my team. You're my bro. Yeah.
Nothing but love. I liked it. I thought it was cool.
Yeah. I think Josh Allen is a good guy. Good guy, Josh Allen. And if I didn't already have committed my fandom to the Minnesota Vikings, you think you'd be a Bill's fan? And the Baltimore Ravens.
Who are struggling? I know my Ravens are doing so bad this year. Then the bills, I'd say the bills are my fourth pick.
Okay. Because I know in that mix, you've got the Vikings, the Ravens, the Lions, which are a rival of the Vikings by the way. And then you have the bills is what you're saying. And the dolphins are in there somewhere.
Dolphins are five. Okay. Yeah, that's my order.
Good job. Yeah. You listen to me when I talk about stuff. I know. I know.
All the time. Those are, yeah, those are my top five teams. The dolphins are slipping real big in a big way though. What are you going to do? I don't know. Mike McDaniel is, he is off the rails. He's got that wet look that I really don't like.
I know. He didn't used to look like that. No, he looks wet when he's not fresh out of the pool. And I know it's humid. So I get it, but grab a towel, but I know I don't know what's going on with the dog. I don't know guys what's happening. Anyway, this is not a story about reach out to flipper and say, Hey, how can we be better dolphins?
Stop called Dan Marino. Yeah, he's already there. Uncle Dan's already walking the halls. He like lives at the campus.
He's always, or the complex, he's in the sports complex. I like to, I didn't pay attention to football until recently, but like my dad and brother always watched football. So I can like hear old timey football names and be like, ah, I know about Jerry Rice or I know about John Elway or I know about Steve Young. I know about Dan Marino because of Ace Pintura.
Exactly. Laces out Dan. Who's, who's the famous prior Buffalo Bills player? Do you know? Call our son. He will answer that question for you in about 13 seconds.
Yeah, he will. I'm like, this one, this one, this one, this one. Oh, Jay Simpson. Was it, it's not where he ended his career. Oh, really? I don't think so.
It says he 11 seasons primarily with the Buffalo Bills. No, we're not going to, we'll find someone else. You sent me a text yesterday that said, show note, post office free for all. I am disappointed in people is what happened. I had to go to the post office. I've been trying to sell some things on eBay. I sold a CD, if you believe it. I sold a CD on eBay.
$40. Well, yeah. I mean, that includes shipping and everything, but it's a, it's a limited edition still in the, in the plastic CD. It's a cool thing. Not a limited edition. It's just an original release edition of an album.
It doesn't matter. The point is I sold a CD on eBay. You have multiple boxes of CDs you could sell. I have sold one, but that was, that was kind of cool. And I've been meaning to get to the post office to, to ship it like since Friday last week.
And because that's when it sold. And I'm supposed to like hustle on getting this stuff in the mail. Like I'm, it's supposed to be like the next day that you, next business day or whatever you put it in the mail.
And I was, I was just busy. I haven't been able to run to the post office. I got it all packaged yesterday. I said, I'm going to drop this off. And so, so I did. But when I got to the post office, they have repaved the parking lot.
It's very nice. Very difficult to navigate. They have not painted lines yet. And you know how in the winter time, when there's no lines, because you can't see them because of snow, it's just a free for all in the parking lot. Oh, this was a early fall free for all at the post office. And nobody knew where to park. And there was a good number of people there, but there weren't, there was no line.
Like there were only like two people in line in front of me. But there were like 30 cars in the parking lot. And they also have redone the speed bumps.
And so they had just put up those traffic candles, the little sticks on top of the speed bumps. So you couldn't even drive through that part of the, so everybody's backing up and turning around and going every which way. It's chaos.
It's chaos at the post office, I tell ya. But that is a large parking lot. And everybody's parking just wherever they want.
There's no rhyme or reason to it. You know how they make the lines kind of, they'll draw a big long straight line and then they'll make the parking spots come off that big long straight line? Yeah, that big long straight line is real important. It's real important to keeping everything in line in the parking lot. Because without it, those lines were curvy little like all over the place. Nobody can like line up your mirrors to the car next to you. That's so easy.
Line up your car next to the car and get out. It's, I was super disappointed in people. It was a mess. It was difficult.
I like when you get upset by things. It was difficult to get into the parking lot. And I was following someone who was just as surprised as me. And then I went, you're gonna have to back up because you can't go over that speed bump. That means I have to back up because I can't go over either and I'm behind you. Here we go.
It's all back up now. Great. This is fun.
It was not a good time. So I'm glad that I don't have to frequently go to the post office. Well, you could be able to, I mean, it will be fine next week probably once they paved a lot or once they, yeah, until the snow flies. But it was, it was not an enjoyable experience yesterday.
Sorry. Because that parking lot, while it does look very fancy and new, is not functioning properly. There's a real issue with that parking lot. So good job on your new lot. Let's get some lines on that bad boy. ASAP.
That's all. Because people can't be left to their own parking devices. They are not good at it. You really angered Josh. Look at him go. Just park right. Just park right. How are they supposed to park right when there's no lines? Line up your mirrors to the car next to you and then get out. That's it.
That's all you got to do. It really depends on the person who goes first. The person who parks first has got to be on task. Yes, there's a lot of responsibility, even in the snow, when the first person that arrives in the parking lot determines how everyone else will park. I would say person number one has a big responsibility to set the tone. Person number two, you better not mess it up. You're saying person two has a bigger responsibility. Person two has a bigger responsibility than person one.
Okay. Person one needs to be on task. Person one needs to go, this is a, this is a normal way to park.
Not all weird. You go, this is, if I were here and there were other cars and there were lines I could see, I would park normally like this. And then you go, okay, I'm parked.
And then person number two can't come in there and go like, I'll just park sideways next to this guy. It'll do. It'll do. I got places to be. I can't see the line. So I guess I just park where I park. Right.
And you can't be like, I'll park two spaces away and then be like a space and a half and then people can't park. You know what I'm saying? It gets to be a whole mess.
I do. And then everybody's all and that lasts for eight months. That's true.
That is true. Okay. Yesterday, about this same time, I talked about how I wanted to record myself sleeping so that I could see how often I moved in my sleep. You're not a fan of this. No, did you do it? No, but you also didn't think that I could do the research to find out what I would need to do this.
And guess what, Josh? I did the research. All right. What do you need? My phone. Okay. My phone has a time lapse. Excellent. So I can do that.
I need a power cord. Yeah. Have it. Okay.
I need a tripod. Got it. Okay.
And I need a nightlight because it records better in the nightlight. Got it. Correct.
I'm set. I should have recorded last night, but I was too tired. Now, I also did a poll on Facebook. I wanted to see if people, if I should do this. So I, on Facebook, I said, I want to record myself while I sleep. Josh thinks it's creepy and wants nothing to do with the footage. Should I do it out of normal curiosity?
Do you think it's a creepy horror movie vibe? Or only okay if you post the bloopers. And I got responses that it's only okay if I record the bloopers. I don't know what the bloopers are going to be. What are the bloopers?
I don't know. What are sleeping bloopers? I also want to record it because I want to see how often you encroach on my side of the bed.
Zero encroach. No, wrongo, because even though I didn't record last night, I woke up to your face on my pillow and I went, Your pillow is softer. It is a soft pillow. No, you know why your pillow is softer?
Why? Because when your head's squishing it down, the other side is up. And so then it's like, nice. Share a pillow. What's wrong with sharing a pillow? There's nothing wrong with sharing a pillow. But when I need to move and I can't because you're in my space, then I go, I guess that pillow is super long.
It's half the bed. Yeah. Yeah. Pillows are.
No, I know. Your little pillow is not the one you're talking about. We're in the bed and you wouldn't even know. But you weren't on your side of the bed.
I was probably. Okay. Well, tonight's the night. Oh, great. Here's the thing. I was like, you didn't think I'm going to do the research.
I can do the research. It can't be that difficult to do this anyway. Josh doesn't think I can do it. I'll do it. I'll do it. So tonight's the night. I did the research.
I have the tools. You've looked at your phone to figure out the stop motion mode. Yes.
You already have. The time lapse mode? Yes.
Okay. Where's it at in there? It's on my video. Oh.
Yeah, I see that. And guess what? What's the frequency? What do you mean?
The time lapse speed. I don't know the answer to that. I didn't click on it actually.
I haven't done all the research. Don't do that. Shut it. Okay.
We'll see. Now I lost what I was going to say. Oh, darn it.
Sorry. Tonight's the night you said though. Yeah, tonight's the night. I'm going to record. I want to see.
There's two things I want to see. I want to see how often I move and how often you encroach on my side of the bed. Zero.
Zero encroach. You were telling me about a little buddy mode on a video game. Yeah, well, it's not a real thing. No, it's not. It's a solid idea.
But it should absolutely be. This person posted online they were babysitting a four-year-old and they said, I'm now convinced that video games need a little buddy mode where a kid can have a character that just jogs along with you and can help and get their own encouraging score, but they can't be harmed by any of the bad guys in the game. And I think that's awesome. I think that's awesome too. And might I propose that this would work great for little buddies, so like little brothers, little kids, so you could make the course easier.
You're small sibling. Well, you don't even have to do that. Like if they fall off the map, they bounce right back up. But they would need help jumping sometimes, I think, over stuff. But I also think, this is my proposal, that you need like a wife mode too. What's that? Oh, that's when. Tell me about wife mode because I'm going to tell you what I think wife needs.
Go on. What is wife mode in a game? Depending on the game.
We played a game recently. It takes two. Uh-huh. And wife had some trouble jumping. There was like some swingy parts where you had to jump up and swing.
That was hard. So wife mode would be like, hey, make this jumping a little bit easier. Do you know what I really like about that game? That game teaches you a lot of video game mechanic fundamentals, rotating cameras, timing jumps, things like that. Like it's very, very good at teaching you controls that you use in a lot of different game platforms. It has multiple different ones. There's rhythm games. There's a lot of different stuff built into that one game that you had many challenges with. Did I ever once, ever even once go, no, I'm not letting this on you.
But I'm saying. How many times did. Wife needs to practice and play that game more because the hard parts are hard by design, but not impossible or impassable. And you just need to, you just need to, excuse me, wife just needs to. It just needs to keep going. And we finished that game.
That game was so much fun. But I think there are other games like we started another two player game and there's another, another game from the same people that made it takes two that we haven't started. Oh, but remember, we started the one with the little rope people. Yeah, I forgot about that.
Actually, we haven't played the string. I don't want that one as much. I understand. But if you haven't played it takes two, I mean, you'll need a partner. Yeah, it's it takes two fun game, but it's so much fun. Yeah. And hey, listen, if you're playing with somebody who may not be so good at video games, be patient. Yeah. Just encourage them. Like my partner did.
Yeah. Well, that's what I really enjoyed about the game was it was challenging for me as well because the way it gets actual real video game mechanics with so many different things it was, it didn't feel cheesy playing it. No, like I didn't feel like I was playing like, oh, this game. Like I felt challenged. I felt like I was having, I was, you know, really into it.
You have to solve puzzles and figure out, you know, all kinds of different stuff. So it was really good. But it also, I think, improved your gaming capability as we played the game.
That's what I'm saying. Play that again and work on some of those things. You're going to be even better. Oh, Astro Bot did the same thing. Oh, I can't handle that. That's the VR one. That is the VR one. I can't.
That makes me so dizzy. But it was super fun. It is fun.
It's really beautiful in that headset. Yeah, I know. Whoa.
Whoa. I just say, listen, if you're only good at Mario Kart, which I am, then there's no need to play any other video games. I could say something. Say, I was just going to say, good when you aren't playing against me, bro. I knew you were going to say that.
You are only good at that game. Here we go. Here we go. Until I showed you how to drift and I showed you how to do this and I showed you.
Come on. You should practice. You should practice. Nothing more to say. You can be better.
Okay. No, why did we start talking about Buddy mode? Little Buddy mode. I think that's a great idea. I think little Buddy mode needs to be activated on all games because then they feel like part of it. And then you don't have to worry about your controllers are plugged in. Yeah. They could have a real working controller.
They just wouldn't affect your game. Be great. It would be great.
Plus, you know, then you're sharing that experience, which is awesome. That's all they want to do. They just want to play with you. Little Buddy mode. Little Buddy mode. Come on, little Buddy. I think it's awesome.
I do too. Do that video game developers. Build Buddy mode. Little Buddy mode. All right. You want to be my little Buddy?
Sure. This is kind of cool. There is an AI feature for ring cameras to help find lost pets. Oh, interesting. So what you'll be able to do is connect with other ring users in your neighborhood. Yeah.
And let them know if your pet went missing and then AI will automatically detect cats and dogs and tell you if there's a possible match. Interesting. I know. Creepy. Why is it creepy? It's just, it's just interesting. I mean, that's, you know, look, we're talking about video doorbell surveillance thing anyway, but I'm just saying that like it's just using an AI to recognize that then they're going to roll out facial recognition next is what I'm saying.
That's why I said this has consequences. This has, you know, a little bit of a lean into a little bit of a weird space for me. I can see that. But, you know, I get it.
Like, I think that's a great way to use the technology. Like that's, I don't think the cats and dogs are like, my freedom. They're our dog is. Well, I get it. But you know what I'm saying, I get that like this is a cool technology. I think that's, I think that's a fun way to use it.
And hopefully that is beneficial to people that, you know, have a runaway animal that they can find them quicker, at least get an idea of where they might have been seen and when that's a big deal. So it's called the feature is called search party. And you have to open the ring app on your phone. Okay.
And then you have to navigate to the control center, choose search party option. Nothing good. And then you activate the lost pets. It says search for lost pets.
Yeah. Activate the feature. And then you set up a lost pet profile.
Yeah. I was going to say, then you would, they have to upload pictures of your animals so that it knows who to look for. Like this is a white cat. Right.
This is a Jack Russell dog. Yeah. I got it. And then you receive notifications.
Yeah. If something's been tagged and then you can review footage. Without the permission of the person who owns the ring doorbell.
I guess they've activated the mode to give you permission for that. I think everybody, each individual. Sets up their own setting. That's what I'm saying. And then you can review your own footage and then you can choose to share it with the lost pet owner.
So if like your neighbor, you don't like lost their dog. I'm just messing with you. Oh no. Haven't seen anything. Checked all the footage. Nope. Didn't go past my place. Be a good neighbor. Yeah.
I don't even know. We have a ring doorbell, but I don't even know if I have the app for it. Do you have the app for it?
Yeah. What is it? What is it? Is it called ring? No. Is it the alarm one? Yeah.
I have that app. Yeah, I know. I'm like, you know this. You've looked at it before. Yep.
I was to make sure. Cause we get notifications when everybody comes home. And so I always, sometimes I watch as people leave. I know.
I watch when our daughter leaves for the school bus. Right. Cause she has to cross the road. Oh. And I'm always worried that. That she doesn't know how to cross the road at this point. She better know how to cross a road.
She's 16. You better pay attention. Come on.
You come on. Well, anyway, anyway, yeah, it's a cool idea. I think it's, I think keep it in the right lane. Don't abuse it.
That's probably a good place to be. I like it for what it is, but let's not let that technology get out of hand. Okay. That's what I'm trying to say. I get what you're trying to say. But thanks for letting me know about it. Thumbs up, pal.
It's difficult for me to live in a house with my family. What? And this is the morning show. What does that mean? It's difficult to live in the house with your family. It's difficult to eat meals with you guys. And I'll tell you what I mean by that. Because there's too much stuff on the table?
No. What I mean by that is that I always see recipes that look really, really good. And then I go, my family will never eat that.
I see what you're saying. What recipe did you see? Butternut squash soup.
Just make it. And then I'm going to eat a butternut squash. I know. And what else? It's not just that in like broth. What else is in it? Well, I don't know.
You caught me off guard. But then I always see stuff with cranberries. You guys don't want to eat cranberries. All of the stuff, all like all of these fall recipes that I'm seeing all have like acorn squash. Delicious. You guys won't eat it. I see vegetarian meals all the time with like chickpeas.
I saw something yesterday. It was like a chickpea and pinto bean taco. You love a bean. I do.
You love a bean. And I went, that looks so good. Make it. And I would eat that in a second. Just make it. But I'm going to be the only one that eats it.
That's not true. Okay. So this butternut squash soup has onions. Apples, flowers, vegetable broth. Flower. Did I say flowers? Yes. Flower. Flower.
Okay. Butternut squash, cayenne pepper, cheese, thyme, honey. And then you put a pecan crumble over the top. Okay. You can just make that on the side. I will try the soup. The soup sounds fine. Is there a meat? Nope. Could there be like a sausage in it?
Nope. Because I don't want sausage in it. So we'll put it on the side.
Yeah. I'll do sausage crumbles on top. How about this? And you do pecan crumbles. I'm going to make this.
Yeah. And then you do whatever you need to do for dinner. But I'm going to, I think sometimes we need to make.
That's what I'm saying. Make it. Two different meals. Just make what you want.
Because this looks so good. And the chickpea taco thing sounded fine. It's chickpeas and beans.
I know. And I'll just put some meat in it. That's precisely what I don't want in it. No, I understand. But I'm just saying, I'll just throw some meat in it. Okay.
You make it. I'll just cook some meat on the side and add some meat. Okay. That sounds fine with me. Or I'll just eat it the way it is and be fine.
Yeah. But you always make, you don't say anything, but you kind of make a face. Where you go? What's that mean? I don't say anything, but I make a face. Yeah.
About, about what? About like the vegetarian meals that I have ideas for or that I sometimes cook. And then I go, oh, that sounds so good.
Then make it. And then you just go, hmm. I don't say that. I don't go, hmm. I don't say that. You don't.
You don't. That's what I said. I said, you don't say anything, but you make a face. What face? The face is, hmm, it's a face.
What does that mean? Is this it? Is this all that's for the meal? That's, that's the face you make. What are you trying to starve me to death?
Where's the meat? Is that, was that the face? That is the face. The face conveys.
I'm not going to complain because this is food and I appreciate that you made food. But where's the rest of it? Right. It's like when you're like, here's a bowl of soup and I go, and.
You go have this soup. And what else? That's the face. That's the face you make. Where's the chicken?
Yeah. Is there, is there more to it? What else, what else goes in this soup? A meat?
Oh, these pecan crumbles. Oh, it's not that. Yes. It is that. It is.
I know. That sounds very nice for you. And I will eat the soup. I just, it felt like I could add like that.
The recipe you said you gave felt like if I had a little bit of sausage crumbled, add to it, it'd be nice. I don't know. I think that sounds like, I don't think that's a good pairing. I mean, maybe it is. Yeah.
What kind of sausage crumble like an Italian sausage? Okay. Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to make it. Yeah. And then I'm going to ruin the whole batch. Okay.
Is what I'm saying. You make it. I'm just going to crumble up some sausage so I can drop some in. So I get a little meat. I like a little meat.
You know, that's all. And is that enough of a meal or do you need to have something else with it? I'll let you know when I eat it. Are you going to make the face? Like what the face? What the face? I just explained what the face. I know what's it look like. It goes like this.
The what? That's a side eye. That's like a, oh, trust this.
What is this? That's a different kind of. I don't think I make that face. You have made that face before. Is that going to get any closer to me?
Should I be frightened by? No, you've made that face when we've had meals with tofu before and you go. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly.
That. So there's this trend. I think it's a trend. I just, I think it's a trend because I've seen it all. I see it everywhere. I see it at bookstores.
I see it. I just went to the vintage market recently and there was a whole bunch of vendors that had these for sale. I also went to a store and they had these for sale. It was like a. Well, what is it? You're eluding. I know.
You're like, suspenseful. What's the, what is it? Well, you know how when we were kids and we wanted to buy toys, we would just go to the store and buy what we wanted. We saw the package, we knew what was in the package and we bought the package. All right. The thing that we wanted.
Okay. And then when our kids were little and even now. It's a blind, it's like a mystery. Yeah. Blind bag, they call it. Yeah.
Or a blind box. And our kids love that kind of stuff. Um, listen, there was a little bit of it when we were growing up. Vending machine culture was huge and you didn't know what you were going to get, but it only cost you a quarter. But you had a basic idea of what you were going to get. You knew you were going to get a sticky hand.
Okay. Or you knew you were going to get a sticker, but you weren't sure which one you might have got. You weren't sure which, which one you were going to get. Uh, sport, sports cards, baseball cards, football cards have always been blind.
You don't know what you're going to get in the pack. And that was always something. So that's been around for a long time.
All right. And then I would say there was, there was the grab bag. And I think the grab bag started as a fun thing, but it's quickly become how to get rid of stuff we couldn't sell on clearance. And I don't appreciate what the grab bag has turned into. I think the grab bag was, was a, used to be fun, or you would get like one thing of value and maybe a few things you were like, I don't really care about that. But the one thing of value was like a win. But I think the grab bag has just turned into, we can't get rid of this junk. Throw $10 worth of stuff in a bag and sell it for five. Yeah. Because we couldn't sell it on clearance.
Okay. So here's the new trend that I've been seeing a lot lately. It's a blind book in a bag, like a mystery, mystery date. I, yeah, I've seen the blind book date. Yes. I've seen that too, where it's got just a, just a cover. Yep.
And then they've decorated on it like mystery. Uh-huh. Yeah. And it'll give you an idea of the genre like romance or memoir or. Okay. And then the, they've packaged it so it looks pretty and you get like a thing of tea and you get like a bookmark and you get a sticker and you get.
So our daughter. Is this, is this the same thing though? Are they getting rid of books they can't sell on clearance? Probably.
I'm not. Are you going to open it up and it's like mystery novels for dummies and you go, I didn't want this. I don't know, but I don't like, I like to know exactly what I'm getting. I don't like the mystery stuff. I want to know, but I also don't like surprises either so much.
So I'm like, no. So she saw this idea and she was like, I love this. So the store, the one store that we went to, like they had pre-packaged stuff or you could build your own. So the, the, the books were still packaged so you couldn't see them, but you could add your own little pieces to it. So that's what she opted to do.
Well, that's interesting. And I said, okay, like what book are you going to pick? And she goes, I don't know. I think I'm just going to randomly pick one.
And she did. And then I go, that's so, I don't know. There's so many books that I want to read. I can't take a chance on getting and purchasing a book that I won't necessarily want to read.
Okay. So she got a book. She opened it up and I go, do you like that book?
And she goes, mm, right. That's the hardest part. I know.
Is that now you, now you got a, mm, kind of book. Yeah. Exactly. And if you're not excited about it, then it takes away all the fun of the whole thing.
Right. And I know she's not going to read it. And then I'm like, well, now you've just wasted money because I know you're not going to read that book. So the whole, like the idea of it's great, but it's not a book that you're ever going to read.
So what a wasted. I guess, I mean, if there's probably a type of person out there who's like, I just, for the joy of reading, we'll read. And maybe it's something that I don't love, but I'll get into it, you know, or I'll read through it and I don't like it. Or maybe I'll read and I go, I just, this isn't for me. And I'll put it down and not, not finish it. But I don't know.
I feel like you, you, you are definitely taking a risk when you do the blind thing. But I also, I would, I mean, are there like top tier big time books in there? Are they going like, nobody buys these books.
And so we're just going to wrap them up and then we can get people to buy them at a discounted price. And then, you know, I, if I was the author, I'd feel bad. I'd be like, why am I ending up in, in the bin?
Like, what's the deal? I read a book a couple of years ago and I really, really loved the book. And then I saw it maybe a year or two later at the dollar store.
Right. And I got really sad because I went, no, this is a really good book. This doesn't belong at the dollar store. I mean, but then you've also got access to people to grab that book. That's true. That's fair. That's fair. So more people can enjoy it.
True. Maybe I shouldn't have to pay a premium just to read your book. Maybe I was just upset because I paid full price. Yeah, that might have been where your head was.
Why did I have to not pay at all? Because I hear, I, a lot of people are book collectors and I'm a book collector too, but I only buy books if I love the book. Correct. So my library is books that I've. This is very true. Otherwise I just get them from the library and then I go, mm, I don't care enough about that one to own it. It was a fine read, but I know I'll never read it again. Right.
So that's why this mystery book thing I go, mm, mm, mm. That's too, that's too big of a chance. Yeah, I wouldn't have done it. I mean, I struggled with, with baseball and football cards enough going like, I don't care about any of these players. Or I didn't get a good card. Like, but you know what?
I didn't get a good card that's now sitting in a box. Like, what does that even mean? Yeah, it's just stuff.
Yeah, look at all this stuff. All right. Put it in a grab bag. Call it a day. There are nine stoplights from our house to the radio station.
This is true. And I have counted them myself because I have counted, uh, how many green ones and how many red ones. And there are days where it's all reds. And it's a bad day. Today was an all red one for me.
Was it? Every single one. All nine?
All nine. That's horrible. Yeah, it was awful.
Please feel sorry for me. I do. I've been there. I've been on that side of things.
Okay. So as I was sitting at one of these red lights, I go, where did the idea of stoplights come from? Who decided this idea? And why did they decide like a color one instead of like a number one or like a stop and a go one?
I don't know. Uh, I know I've heard lots and lots and lots of complaints about how the, uh, traffic light flow is in Idaho Falls specifically. Okay. And that it's not good.
I don't know who, uh, engineers that I don't know who maintains that, but I've heard that it's not great. And there are, I have my own frustrations. My biggest frustration is that if someone, uh, pulls up to the light in the right turn lane, they should delay changing the light for a longer amount of time.
Because if someone pulls up into that right lane and has the option to turn right and the whole light system stops for them to just turn right, which they can do on red, that's a bad system. That's my biggest one. Okay. I did some research on how stoplights came about. Oh, you want to learn something today?
I guess let's learn something. So in the mid 1800s, when railroads were a thing, they already had colored lights. So red for stop and that meant danger, right?
In green was like, or something else is on the tracks. Proceed. Yes.
Like another train. And then they had white, which generally meant all clear, but then this caused confusion because if a lens broke, a red signal could look white. Oh, that's a problem. So then they had a fatal train wreck in 1914 and green became go and yellow took over as the warning. So there is no white anymore. Yep.
Okay. Then they had a gas lit traffic signal in London. A what now? Signal. A gas lit signal.
Signal. In London in 1868, it only had red and green, but it exploded. Whoa.
Due to a gas leak and it wasn't used again. Okay. Then cars come about.
Yeah. And the first electric traffic light was installed in 1914. Red and green only. It was just red and green. Where was it? In Chicago. No, Cleveland.
Cleveland? Okay. Now I need to know, do they have the original one still like in a museum somewhere because there's no way it's still hanging or is it still hanging? Yeah, I don't know. And if it's not on display, what a missed opportunity to have a cool piece of history.
Cleveland. Also know that they had semaphores for a while too. Did they have actual people out there doing that? Unsure. Or was it mechanical?
I think it was a mechanical device. Really? Yeah. Interesting. Do you know enough semaphore to know what you would be looking for? Sure don't. I got nothing. I got like arms crossed is like no. I think I'm trying to remember.
Okay, then in 1920, there was a police officer who invented the modern three-color traffic light because they realized that they needed a warning between go and stop. Makes sense. Not that that matters anymore because I see people just going through that.
Like they don't even see that warning sign. So, hmm, how about that? How about it? How about it. So there you go. That's what I know about traffic lights.
The semaphore was mechanical. It's very interesting. It is able to be switched by people, but then it, I mean, they just had the flags. And so if the flag was out at a 90-degree angle, that was stop. If it was down at a 45, that's clear. So that it was really that simple. And so it wasn't like they had to really work very hard to make it either stick out at a 90 or down at a 45. I see.
So it wasn't super tough. But they moved on from that, which is good. That's a good thing. I dig it. All right. Well, interesting. Thank you for helping me learn something.
You're welcome. I still want to know if I can see the original stop light. I'm curious about it. I just also want to remind people that yellow means that you should probably slow down and come to a stop. And red is definitely don't keep going through the intersection. Yep. Yeah. I don't know if everybody knows that.
I don't think anybody knows that. Let's say it louder for the people in the back. If the light turns yellow, slow down to stop. If it is already red, don't go through the intersection. Yeah, that means no go.
Stop. Red is no go. Green is go. Yellow is slow. Just your reminder. Red is no go.
No go on red. Your friendly, friendly reminder. Yeah.
Stop running red lights. Yeah. Yeah. Friday edition. Is it Halloween edition still?
All right. Would you rather this or that? Would you rather be chased by 100 tiny zombies or one giant spider? Oh, zombies. Zombies, I know. Zombies. Zombies. Because I bet they're so cute. Yeah, until they get you.
How fast are they? You could just do the head thing. Hold them away.
With your hands. I was imagining when you said tiny, I was thinking they were like, I don't know, six inches tall or something. Yeah, let's see. Like smaller than a Barbie. Let's say they're now tiny. Because how tall is a Barbie? Almost a foot.
Is about this big? Like I'm thinking like, you know that Skipper Barbie? Yeah. That little one?
Barbie sister. That's how big I'm thinking. They're that big. Oh, the little one?
Yeah. The little one. Skipper is a little bit smaller than Barbie, but the little one. What's her name? I don't know. Yes, you do. I can't remember. I did know once because I remember when they made that one and I went, oh, for the first time when they made that one for the first time, I went, oh, that's so cool.
But I was aging out of Barbie at that time. Chelsea. Yep. It's the Chelsea doll. That's the one that I'm talking about.
That height. Okay. There's so little. A hundred of them though. They're so little. And they're angry. But how fast are they?
Bite, yeah. They're pretty fast. And they go, nuh, nuh. But they have little legs.
Yeah, I know. So they can run fast, but. To scale. It's not so fast. That's what I have in my head. I know. But if they catch you, like it's going to be a bad day.
But you could also step on them. What's that, what's that movie with Jack Black where he's a normal-sized man? But all the little people tie him down. What's that called? Gulliverse Travel. Yeah, that's it. That's a book. I know it is. But I just, the visual of Jack Black, you know what I'm saying? It's what popped in my head. Yes.
That right there is, everything's a book by the way. That is what I imagine they would do if they caught you. They would just tie you down? Well, they got to keep you down once they get you. That's true. How are they going to get you down?
Sheer numbers. Just tackle, yeah. But anyway, I'm going to be chased by those. Same. I don't want anything to do with that big spider.
Me neither. Nothing. Keep it away from me. I have some incredibly exciting news for you. And I don't think you're ready because of how much this consumed you earlier this year.
I have no idea what you're talking about. January 1st begins Egg Watch. Oh, they have more? They're going to have more eggs?
The eagles are going to have more eggs? Jackie and Shadow have been hanging out in the nest. What they're calling doing nest, what do they call it? I got to find the right word. Nest.
Find the right word. Well, so it's called renovations, but they tried to make it. They tried to make a pun with nest in there. Anyway, I can't find their little word. But anyway, they have been hanging out in the nest over the past couple of days, and they have been doing nest erations. That's the word. Nest erations to the nest. They've been moving sticks around.
They've been hanging out in there together. Again, January 1st begins Egg Watch, depending on several different factors, specifically how much light they receive each day depends on when they actually lay the eggs. The more light they have, the sooner they will lay the eggs.
It could be anywhere between January 1st and April that they lay the eggs, but this is kind of an indication that they're going to have another season of eggs and baby eagles for you to watch this year. It's a big deal. I'm excited. It's a very big deal.
Now, in addition to that, Friends of Big Bear Valley have performed multiple camera updates for the Big Bear Eagle Nest Cams. I was going to ask, how they win and how do they? Well, so everything they did, they did from the ground. They didn't have to climb the tree this year, which is a big deal. They had a broken microphone.
They had a couple of different things that happened, but they were able to do all of this stuff without climbing up into the nest and disturbing anything, which is a big deal. Here's what they did. They put a new wide view camera with improved pan and zoom for better visibility of the eagles. They got a new microphone on Cam 2.
They were able to fix the cable that was broken for the camera at the nest, so you can actually get nest audio again, which is good. And they did some internal software updates as well. So they have smoother functionality and connectivity.
They added a larger battery bank so that they don't have to worry about power outage. Like you're going to have great connectivity with the camera this year. And you're going to have an enhanced viewing experience with this new system. It's going to be very cool.
I really like watching those little eagles. Yeah, I know you did. That's why I knew you'd be very, very excited that they're back in there. And I'm preparing for what could be new eggs in the very coming couple of months. Egg watch starts in January, but they could lay eggs anytime between January and April. Historically, Jackie's favorite month to lay eggs is January. So if you're looking for baby eagle updates from Big Bear Valley, start counting down to January 1st. Because right there at the new year, that's what we've got.
Her babies are like, hey, mom, can you pick a different month? Yeah. Well, I mean, they're just an egg at that point. But I mean, we watched them getting snowed on in March. I know.
And that's so she has to stay there and keep them all warm and cozy. That is correct. So.
Oh, that's good news. As for the eaglets, Gizmo and Sunny, they are not sure where they are. They weren't banded. So like they have no tracking, right? And they can't identify them. There are tons of juvenile eagles around. So they don't know for sure where those two ended up.
But they're probably out there just flying around eating fish doing eagle stuff. And that's fine. And they're their own mates and that's right. And they're best life.
Yep. They have fledged there out of the nest. They're living their eagle life. That makes my heart so happy. I know.
I like it so much. I know. Big news.
Big news. January 1st, 2026. Egg watch begins. You going to be watching? Of course. Of course. All right.
