Speaker 1 (00:00):
Bread show. This is what's trending. Some text. How do
you like them apples?
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Oh? Yes, that was made famous again by Goodwill Hunting
the movie how do you like them apples?
Speaker 3 (00:12):
He used to say that all the time to my brothers.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
You did, yes, how do you like them apples?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Burning the candle from both ends? People are sending us
their old timey phrases here. Well, I'm just reading through
all these. Oh, happy birthday, Radio, Bella. I hope the
hammer brings it down tonight. The Hebrew Hammer, as we
learned this week, that's what. I don't know who's calling
her husband that, but people had been calling him the
(00:41):
Hebrew Hammer for some time now. He used the catchers.
From what I understand, he's burning the candle at both ends,
if you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, yeah, I asked Bella.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
I said, what are you getting for your birthday today?
What's the Hebrew Hammer going to do? And she goes,
you know what he's gonna do? And I was like,
wait a minute, that sounds like more of impressive for him, then,
you you know, I mean, that's that's you know, I
guess for some people, birthdays are it's like a mutual
gift everybody gets a little, a little something on the birthday.
You know, it's supposed to be more about did you
just now figure out this week? This week you're out to.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Lunch, man, I'll cetch you guys later, see you at
the meeting for God.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
That's my Nanna used to say, golly sakes, don't even
know what that man, golly sakes and anyway, So yeah,
but birthdays, it's supposed to be more about the birthday person.
But nobody really loses in that game, do.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
They, No, not that you're both you know, getting what
you need.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Right, So, guys, did the pope watches on and apparently
he's miraculously healed. Now he was on earlier in the week,
and he was Wednesday he was nearing death while drinking
coffee and reading the newspapers. So I mean it was
like a very casual death nearing situation for him, which
you know, Hey, look, if you're the Pope, you got
to be feeling pretty good about things. I think life
probably gets better for you if you're the Pope and
(02:00):
you go to heaven. I gotta think you know, I mean,
you're going right to the front. Let you are tsa PreCheck.
You are clear. Plus you are you are going, you
have the digital ID. No one's stopping you. You know
what I mean. But apparently it's some good news. He's improving.
A Vatican spokesperson said of the eighty eight year old
Pope Francis has no fever and that his key heart
(02:20):
parameters continue to be stable. He is talking about in
early retirement, though, which I think has only happened a
couple of times Pope Benedict, who became the first pope
to retire in six hundred years in twenty thirteen. Pope
Francis maybe the second person to do that. He might
decide to resign. Apparently he's written a resignation letter after
(02:41):
he was elected in case medical problems kept him from
carrying out his duties. But if he can't come into
contact with people, then he might resign and make somebody
else the pope. And then remember they put all the
cardinals like in a room somewhere the Vatican, and then
when a white smoke comes out the top, that means.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
We got ourselves a new pope.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I don't want to get ahead of myself here, but
I am in consideration. Yeah, uh huh, yeah, they they've
inquired they called my agent. They were wondering if I
if I was interested in the role.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Oh you too, Yeah, I've been seeking after me, I
know decades.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I didn't want to bring it up because I didn't
want to cause any sort of like, you know, any
sort of rivalry in the room.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Obviously you were an altar boy.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
Yeah, and you know so I live the perfect lifestyle.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
We both had.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Questionable choices in the light, in the eyes of the church,
but you know, all he's forgiven, that's right.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
But you hey made the best man win. You know
what I mean.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Vatican, We're gonna beat the Vatican. The white smokes gonna
come out. We're gonna take a co papal roll. You
and me both goa popes co hopes. It's gonna hang
out in our white cloth thing. And you know what
I mean, we're a little hat and just chill.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Nothing underneath. I wouldn't well me.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Hear the pope. Who's gonna stop? You get the popemobile to.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Go, man, I've always wanted cruising that. Yes, the Minnesota Senate.
I don't know why this isn't I mean, if this
isn't federal, I don't know why. But the Minnesota Senate
targets use of AI to make people look naked, so
they're trying to get ahead of AI abuses. It's considering
a bill that would ban the use of AI technology
that can alter an image and make a person appear naked.
(04:21):
The newification, which I guess is a word legislation calls
for a penalty of five hundred thousand dollars for each
unlawful access or download to these altered images.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
That should be federal. If it's not, I'm not sure when. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Apple has launched a new phone, a budget friendly phone,
which is only six hundred dollars, Only six hundred dollars
for its phone, which I guess the normal ones are
like over one thousand, So okay, so this is a
smaller version of the iPhone. It does come with AI.
The mid raged pricing strategy is aiming to woo price
(04:54):
sensitive customers in countries like China and India and boost
adoption in lower end markets, but on a global scale,
Apple still faces an uphill battle in luring new customers.
It's smartphone sales have declined sense peaking in twenty twenty two,
and its global shipment share has Phonen nineteen point three
percent in twenty twenty three. That's because it's the same
phone over and over again. We've been over this HM
(05:19):
iPhone one, revolutionary iPhone two, like double iPhone one, iPhone
three was like, oh my gosh, change the shape, everything's different,
it's faster and does all this stuff and take the
button away whenever they did that. And now I just
feel like it's the same phone. Oh now we added
an extra camera. Now there's another four lenses, got the
same thing. I don't know what the fourth lens does.
(05:39):
The pictures look the same to me, exactly the same,
not really sure. It's crazy tho because think about it.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Growing up, we all had like different phones, and now
I'm looking around the room.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Obviously we have the same phone. It's it's an iPhone.
Looks the same.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
But you would have like a razor or, you would
have like a side chocolate, a chocolate like I had the.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Oils, the flip one. Was that the razor?
Speaker 3 (05:56):
The flip one?
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Yeah, the razor which was like thin, right, it was
extra thin. Yeah, And like the what it's called the
BlackBerry blueberry.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Black back BlackBerry.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah, that one.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
So it's just like crazy to think, right, there were
like ten different brands or whatever.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Yeah, and like now we're all just literally getting the
same phone over.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
And no key.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Remember that Nokia phone everybody had, Yes, yeah, yeah, So Jason,
you're to sports reporter, so you of course you've heard
about this. But the Mets, which is a what kind
of team? It's a baseball team in Memphis, right, the
Memphis Mets of the of the Basketball League. Yeah. One
Soto plays for the Mets. He was traded or signed
(06:34):
with I don't know if he's traded to sign with
the Mets and for seven hundred and sixty five million dollars.
But he wanted to wear number. Was it twenty two?
He wanted number twenty two to wear, you know when
he was playing baseball. It's baseball and it's New York actually,
but another guy already had that number.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
So what did he do.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
He bought him an eighty thousand dollars Chevy Tahoe RST.
And the guy gave up his number. I guess earlier
in the season he sang with the team, He's like,
I want that number. The guy's like, what's my number?
He said, well, no, I'll give you something for it,
and he gave him a new car. Wow, so that's
the story. He get himself a new car. Now, the
guy did just sign a seven hundred and sixty five
million dollars deal. I might have aimed a little higher
(07:11):
than if I had the number. I might have been like,
tell you what, five million bucks? Yeah, And I know
that's kind of a jerky thing to do to your
new teammate, you know, but it's like, hey, you just
seven hundred and sixty five million dollars. You can do
something nice. And I hate to be the guy that's
the pessimist, but you can do something nicer for me
than an eighty thousand dollars car. I'm also wondering because
(07:32):
they gave it to him at spring training, which is
in like Arizona or Florida or something. Now, No, but
now you guys got to drive it home to New York.
That's not very nice. It's shipping included, right, Thank you
for the car. Are you going to get it back
to my house in New York? Are you going to
drive it? I sound ungrateful right now, but I just
sticks are making sense for me. I think it could
have been a little better. Yeah, And finally, in Calyn,
(07:54):
this is kind of along the lines of something that
you know. We've talked about Paulina two, but they've done
a full study on what they're calling text isms. We
all likely spend a fair amount of time analyzing text messages.
It's not always easy to gauge a sender's feelings from
written words, as facial expressions and pattern patterns of rhythm
and sound often used to shape meaning in spoken conversations
(08:14):
are absent when you text. However, now this isn't quite
as sensitive as you are with the texting. But they
talked about non standard methods of writing texts, like abbreviations,
intentional misspellings, irregular capitalization, using a different line for each word,
and putting periods between each word, and they said that
(08:36):
those forms of texting are more intense than other forms
of texting now, not using proper grammar and sentence structure,
that's not the problem. Caitlin doesn't like it when I
write a paragraph with periods and exclamation points like I'm
not allowed.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
To use via I did last night.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I did last night to somebody. I don't know who
I did. I think it was to you, Jason.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I said thank you for something, and I said thank
you yeah, you'll get exclaanation.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Point thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
But like I, I the first of all the phone automatically,
so I would have to make an effort to not
capitalize the first letter of a sentence.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I'm okay with capitalization.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Oh you are okay. You just don't like periods in
full sentences.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Just stop hurting us. Yeah, I don't like periods. Periods
are the worst.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
But how do I stop a thought?
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Then? That's what I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
That's what I mean. I'm just gonna write you a paragraph.
I was going to be efficient. This is what I
have to say.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Where are the emojis?
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Boom boom by?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Where the gifts?
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Instead of what? Instead?
Speaker 2 (09:31):
I would have to write you like seven lines of
a text message. I think that's aggressive.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Just be happy. Just love me.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I am happy, I do love you. Catch what you
have has already told you that it's okay.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
I've already I've already accepted that.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
I'm gonna get punctuation, and I'm just gonna have to
wonder if you hate me.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I'm supposed to write non punctuated sentences to Kayla because
it hurts her feelings.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
You can do eight exclamations and a heart and it's
a glitter.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
And then I'll know you guys.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
I'm worse so because and Kaylen does this to me
and I never told you this, but it hurts my feelings.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Let's get it out. Let's get it out.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
You know, I think everyone here has done it to me.
I'm pretty sure I don't like a thumbs up. When
you thumbs up something, Oh, it is very passive aggressive.
It makes me sad.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I think there are different formats of that's when you
would like click on the message and make it, make
it a thumbs up, or respond with a thumbs up.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
I respond I got it, Like got it, I've read it,
I've received, I'm good, or like when you like my message,
like don't thumbs up it, like put a heart or
an exclamation point to be.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Cool, Okay, you're on? Or may I please?
Speaker 6 (10:33):
The reason that I thumbs up because you're referring to
when you tell me what I text you good morning.
I get carpool that you're the only person that gets
a good morning text. That is true, so were that.
But you tell me what time you're going to pick
me up, and sometimes the time changes, and if I
don't acknowledge that the time change. Even though I saw it,
you will call me and worry that I didn't see it.
(10:55):
So I try to do a thumbs up so you
know I saw it.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah, it is a way of ignoring. I think it
depends on the context, like for example.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
That is, but I'll do a heart. I apologize.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
It's been a very busy couple of weeks. We've been traveling,
we doing all kinds of stuff. This week's been really busy,
and a friend of mine's been trying to track me
down and I haven't been responsive. And it's not on purpose,
it's just every time I think to respond, I haven't.
And so finally it was like the person was like, hey,
I'm actually kind of worried about your non response. So
I were, oh my god, I'm really sorry, like this
why I traveled yesterday, this is what I've been doing.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I've been doing this and everything.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
And I was very apologetic, and what I got in
response was a thumbs up.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
No.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
That was a passive aggressive way of saying you know
what I mean.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
It's an text that was somebody going.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
To Okay, you know, got it, you know whatever, because
they even though I said I was sorry and I
and I acknowledge why I wasn't able to be responsive
in that case.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
It was passive aggressive.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
But a heart would have been okay, right, if he
sent a heart.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Would have been cool or hey, thanks for whatever, just
because look, I'm sorry, it's just been a little nutty
around here.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Later, I mean, we just I just changed it down here.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
She did no more thumbs ups myself again. Yeah, I
don't know why I take things so personal. I would
never thumbs up something like that though. That is like
it's like we are at war.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
No, actually, I actually thought that was actually going to rude.
I actually actually let me say it again. Actually I
actually thought it was kind of right.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
So he wants a response from you. You give him
finally what he wants.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
And it was a girl.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
So I hate to say this, but I know it would.
I know it was massive aggressive for that reason.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
You guys hate you left her, you ignored her for days.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Yeah, all right, you've it, But no I don't because
if you're actually but I didn't do it on purpose.
I just realized I had done it, and I was like,
oh my gosh. Because a lot of times what happens
is people will text me at eight o'clock nine o'clock
at night and I'm asleep. Yeah, and so I wake
up at three thirty four and I see it, and
I'm not going to respond then, because I don't know
of your deliveries and I don't know how I'm not
(12:45):
going to respond to you at three in the morning
or four in the morning, yes, when I first see it,
and sadly, by ten am or whatever, when I finally
get back to whatever else I had to do when
the show's over, I've kind of forgotten about what happened
at three or four.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
In the morning exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
So I don't mean to not respond. It's just depending
on when you text me. I may not respond to
you out of courtesy because you know, maybe your phone's on,
and so if I text you for one more dang,
I wake you up. Now that's rude. So anyway, but
I think people take this too seriously. If you write
me in all capital, if you write me with a
bunch of exclamation points, you know, there are certain things
(13:20):
that definitely say to me like you're trying to convey
an attitude or mentality. But if I just write you
a complete sentence with a period at the end, because
I have a four year degree in English, and my
mom would be very upset with me. Well, I mean
I may use it, mayfull use it for something sentence structure,
you know. But then Helen, it won't talk to me
for seven weeks. So we just got to the end
(13:41):
of seven weeks and I texted her, so I think
it's another seven weeks have no touch. No, I don't
think it is. It's not National Supermarket Employee Day to day.
It's National Caregivers Day today as well. The Entertainment Report
will do blogs Waiting by the Phone's new all next
French show Backuum two minutes.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Come Punch. Yeah, they talk better than they sit.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
These are the radio blogs on the Fredge.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Life running in our diaries, except we say them aloud.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
We call them blog. Jason Brown's got one.
Speaker 5 (14:08):
Go Yes, thank you, dear blog.
Speaker 7 (14:10):
So I'm in a very petty fight with my boyfriend Mike,
and it's been going on for this is day five.
So on Monday I had a dentist appointment, but it
was also very cold where we're at currently, and so
when Mike got up and when tried to go to work,
both of his cars that he normally drives were dead
(14:32):
in the driveway. So he's like, I got to take
your car. And but then you know, because he had
to go open the gayage right exactly, like the garage
has to be open. Work starts today. So I'm like, well,
the guy's a mechanic too. You think you go out
to hey, the cars will run. Who's gonna fix it?
Speaker 8 (14:48):
Right?
Speaker 5 (14:48):
Exactly?
Speaker 7 (14:48):
You need like a jumper box or something that was
at the shop. So we had to go to get
the ge So he took my car to the garage
and was like, Okay, as soon as I get a
break and the guy that works with him, as soon
as he comes in, I'll come back and switch your
car out. So an hour goes by, two hours go by,
three hours go by, he doesn't come back with my car,
(15:09):
and so I'm like, okay, he's busy. I get it,
like let me be patient whatever. But then I start
getting mad because I'm like, okay, now you're not thinking
about me, right, Like you're not thinking, yeah, I told
you I had to go to the dentist. For those
that don't know, I'm phobic of the dentist. So I've
already committed to go to the dentist. I've made the appointment,
which is hard enough as it is. I'm going so
instead of calling him, I'm like, I'm gonna be petty
(15:30):
and take an uber right to my dentists appointment.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
So that.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
So I call an uber, getting the uber on my
way to the dentist. I'm like, so I call him
and I'm like, hey, He's like, oh, I got a sorry,
he got busy. I gotta I was gonna come in
search a car. I'm like, it's okay, I'm in an uber.
Don't worry about it. It's fine. But can I pick
my car up on the way. I'll have the uber
drop me at my car on the way back to
show the cab or do.
Speaker 5 (15:56):
You still need my car? Is what I said. Mind
you let me just umbrella this real quick.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
He gave me the car, right like, it's very much
his car that he gave me.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
I did not pay for it. Okay, so here here's
me a title.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
I mean that he doesn't need to follow through on
what you know. I love Mike, but that doesn't mean
that he doesn't need to do what he said he
was gonna do. Because you have a place to go to,
right and if he's not going to do that, then
he just needs to tell you I'm not going to
do that, right, and then you you know, go about
your business right the Uber.
Speaker 5 (16:24):
So then I get an Uber back to the shop.
Speaker 7 (16:26):
I get dropped off at the Gayarage to get my car,
and so he's like, oh, you know, I'm the mechanic,
but you know my cars are broken. I was like, well,
I'm the one that's got Uber everywhere today. It's just
spending fifty dollars in Uber he wore on the dentist, right.
So then he comes home that night then leaves fifty
leaves fifty dollars.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Cash by my wallet. I was like, I don't want that.
You're not paying for that.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
It might be right, right, yeah, done cash money right.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
So then I get up the next morning and I
leave it back by his stuff.
Speaker 5 (16:53):
Here's the fifty dollars cash.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Right.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
I come home, it's back by my stuff.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Right.
Speaker 7 (16:57):
So this has been going on for five days now
that we are passing cash back and forth and I'm
leaving it. At what point do I just give it
in to keep my money? Because keep the money your girl.
Your girl doesn't have a pay pay day for a
week or so, so.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Keep the mind he's yeah, I like that.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
Has it been enough time? Has he learned his lesson?
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You think? No, I can't believe this, No lesson has
been learned. Really can't get this.
Speaker 8 (17:20):
Man is putting his feet on the ground, going to work,
trying to make a coin to take care of Jason.
He's given Jason the car. He's not y'all like Mike
is down at the hooter.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
It's having a good time.
Speaker 8 (17:32):
Like, no, he's at work. He got busy. Jason could
have called any of us to get a ride.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Yeah, this is entitled with the car. He gave my
car back.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
You are, Yeah, he's spoiled.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Tell me the last petty fight that you got in
with Big Tim, Tim, don't fight with me. Tell me
tell me the last time you were petty with Big Tim,
though I guarantee you was in the last seven days.
Speaker 8 (17:58):
Me petty never. But now Victim doesn't entertain any of
my foolishness. Like if I would have did that, like
I'm in an uber. He was like, Okay, let me
know how your appointment goes. But like I have a
good day. It is like, yeah, that man has a
sense of peace that only.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Want one.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
I kind of do the same thing, which makes me
look insensitive. But I'm just gonna be okay, Like if
I know, if I know that, if I know we're
headed in the direction it's not going to be like
healthy and fruitful. Then it's like if I know that
I'm being baited, Okay, Okay, yep, you win, Okay, you
know because smart man. But it just it really disarms
(18:43):
the petty.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
Most of the time that is me because he's very
much like the vocal one, the yeller, and I will
not like it will. It's got to take woo to
get me to that level. Like I could probably kind
on one hand how many times that's happened in our relationship
in fourteen years. But like I'll be the one that's
like okay and just walk away.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
You really him on this way, I'm in the look
at me, I'm an independent match money.

Bread show. This is what's trending. Some text. How do
you like them apples?
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Oh? Yes, that was made famous again by Goodwill Hunting
the movie how do you like them apples?
Speaker 3 (00:12):
He used to say that all the time to my brothers.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
You did, yes, how do you like them apples?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Burning the candle from both ends? People are sending us
their old timey phrases here. Well, I'm just reading through
all these. Oh, happy birthday, Radio, Bella. I hope the
hammer brings it down tonight. The Hebrew Hammer, as we
learned this week, that's what. I don't know who's calling
her husband that, but people had been calling him the
(00:41):
Hebrew Hammer for some time now. He used the catchers.
From what I understand, he's burning the candle at both ends,
if you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, yeah, I asked Bella.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
I said, what are you getting for your birthday today?
What's the Hebrew Hammer going to do? And she goes,
you know what he's gonna do? And I was like,
wait a minute, that sounds like more of impressive for him, then,
you you know, I mean, that's that's you know, I
guess for some people, birthdays are it's like a mutual
gift everybody gets a little, a little something on the birthday.
You know, it's supposed to be more about did you
just now figure out this week? This week you're out to.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Lunch, man, I'll cetch you guys later, see you at
the meeting for God.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
That's my Nanna used to say, golly sakes, don't even
know what that man, golly sakes and anyway, So yeah,
but birthdays, it's supposed to be more about the birthday person.
But nobody really loses in that game, do.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
They, No, not that you're both you know, getting what
you need.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Right, So, guys, did the pope watches on and apparently
he's miraculously healed. Now he was on earlier in the week,
and he was Wednesday he was nearing death while drinking
coffee and reading the newspapers. So I mean it was
like a very casual death nearing situation for him, which
you know, Hey, look, if you're the Pope, you got
to be feeling pretty good about things. I think life
probably gets better for you if you're the Pope and
(02:00):
you go to heaven. I gotta think you know, I mean,
you're going right to the front. Let you are tsa PreCheck.
You are clear. Plus you are you are going, you
have the digital ID. No one's stopping you. You know
what I mean. But apparently it's some good news. He's improving.
A Vatican spokesperson said of the eighty eight year old
Pope Francis has no fever and that his key heart
(02:20):
parameters continue to be stable. He is talking about in
early retirement, though, which I think has only happened a
couple of times Pope Benedict, who became the first pope
to retire in six hundred years in twenty thirteen. Pope
Francis maybe the second person to do that. He might
decide to resign. Apparently he's written a resignation letter after
(02:41):
he was elected in case medical problems kept him from
carrying out his duties. But if he can't come into
contact with people, then he might resign and make somebody
else the pope. And then remember they put all the
cardinals like in a room somewhere the Vatican, and then
when a white smoke comes out the top, that means.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
We got ourselves a new pope.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I don't want to get ahead of myself here, but
I am in consideration. Yeah, uh huh, yeah, they they've
inquired they called my agent. They were wondering if I
if I was interested in the role.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Oh you too, Yeah, I've been seeking after me, I
know decades.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I didn't want to bring it up because I didn't
want to cause any sort of like, you know, any
sort of rivalry in the room.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Obviously you were an altar boy.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
Yeah, and you know so I live the perfect lifestyle.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
We both had.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Questionable choices in the light, in the eyes of the church,
but you know, all he's forgiven, that's right.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
But you hey made the best man win. You know
what I mean.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Vatican, We're gonna beat the Vatican. The white smokes gonna
come out. We're gonna take a co papal roll. You
and me both goa popes co hopes. It's gonna hang
out in our white cloth thing. And you know what
I mean, we're a little hat and just chill.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Nothing underneath. I wouldn't well me.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Hear the pope. Who's gonna stop? You get the popemobile to.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Go, man, I've always wanted cruising that. Yes, the Minnesota Senate.
I don't know why this isn't I mean, if this
isn't federal, I don't know why. But the Minnesota Senate
targets use of AI to make people look naked, so
they're trying to get ahead of AI abuses. It's considering
a bill that would ban the use of AI technology
that can alter an image and make a person appear naked.
(04:21):
The newification, which I guess is a word legislation calls
for a penalty of five hundred thousand dollars for each
unlawful access or download to these altered images.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
That should be federal. If it's not, I'm not sure when. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Apple has launched a new phone, a budget friendly phone,
which is only six hundred dollars, Only six hundred dollars
for its phone, which I guess the normal ones are
like over one thousand, So okay, so this is a
smaller version of the iPhone. It does come with AI.
The mid raged pricing strategy is aiming to woo price
(04:54):
sensitive customers in countries like China and India and boost
adoption in lower end markets, but on a global scale,
Apple still faces an uphill battle in luring new customers.
It's smartphone sales have declined sense peaking in twenty twenty two,
and its global shipment share has Phonen nineteen point three
percent in twenty twenty three. That's because it's the same
phone over and over again. We've been over this HM
(05:19):
iPhone one, revolutionary iPhone two, like double iPhone one, iPhone
three was like, oh my gosh, change the shape, everything's different,
it's faster and does all this stuff and take the
button away whenever they did that. And now I just
feel like it's the same phone. Oh now we added
an extra camera. Now there's another four lenses, got the
same thing. I don't know what the fourth lens does.
(05:39):
The pictures look the same to me, exactly the same,
not really sure. It's crazy tho because think about it.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Growing up, we all had like different phones, and now
I'm looking around the room.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Obviously we have the same phone. It's it's an iPhone.
Looks the same.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
But you would have like a razor or, you would
have like a side chocolate, a chocolate like I had the.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Oils, the flip one. Was that the razor?
Speaker 3 (05:56):
The flip one?
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Yeah, the razor which was like thin, right, it was
extra thin. Yeah, And like the what it's called the
BlackBerry blueberry.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Black back BlackBerry.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah, that one.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
So it's just like crazy to think, right, there were
like ten different brands or whatever.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Yeah, and like now we're all just literally getting the
same phone over.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
And no key.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Remember that Nokia phone everybody had, Yes, yeah, yeah, So Jason,
you're to sports reporter, so you of course you've heard
about this. But the Mets, which is a what kind
of team? It's a baseball team in Memphis, right, the
Memphis Mets of the of the Basketball League. Yeah. One
Soto plays for the Mets. He was traded or signed
(06:34):
with I don't know if he's traded to sign with
the Mets and for seven hundred and sixty five million dollars.
But he wanted to wear number. Was it twenty two?
He wanted number twenty two to wear, you know when
he was playing baseball. It's baseball and it's New York actually,
but another guy already had that number.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
So what did he do.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
He bought him an eighty thousand dollars Chevy Tahoe RST.
And the guy gave up his number. I guess earlier
in the season he sang with the team, He's like,
I want that number. The guy's like, what's my number?
He said, well, no, I'll give you something for it,
and he gave him a new car. Wow, so that's
the story. He get himself a new car. Now, the
guy did just sign a seven hundred and sixty five
million dollars deal. I might have aimed a little higher
(07:11):
than if I had the number. I might have been like,
tell you what, five million bucks? Yeah, And I know
that's kind of a jerky thing to do to your
new teammate, you know, but it's like, hey, you just
seven hundred and sixty five million dollars. You can do
something nice. And I hate to be the guy that's
the pessimist, but you can do something nicer for me
than an eighty thousand dollars car. I'm also wondering because
(07:32):
they gave it to him at spring training, which is
in like Arizona or Florida or something. Now, No, but
now you guys got to drive it home to New York.
That's not very nice. It's shipping included, right, Thank you
for the car. Are you going to get it back
to my house in New York? Are you going to
drive it? I sound ungrateful right now, but I just
sticks are making sense for me. I think it could
have been a little better. Yeah, And finally, in Calyn,
(07:54):
this is kind of along the lines of something that
you know. We've talked about Paulina two, but they've done
a full study on what they're calling text isms. We
all likely spend a fair amount of time analyzing text messages.
It's not always easy to gauge a sender's feelings from
written words, as facial expressions and pattern patterns of rhythm
and sound often used to shape meaning in spoken conversations
(08:14):
are absent when you text. However, now this isn't quite
as sensitive as you are with the texting. But they
talked about non standard methods of writing texts, like abbreviations,
intentional misspellings, irregular capitalization, using a different line for each word,
and putting periods between each word, and they said that
(08:36):
those forms of texting are more intense than other forms
of texting now, not using proper grammar and sentence structure,
that's not the problem. Caitlin doesn't like it when I
write a paragraph with periods and exclamation points like I'm
not allowed.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
To use via I did last night.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I did last night to somebody. I don't know who
I did. I think it was to you, Jason.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I said thank you for something, and I said thank
you yeah, you'll get exclaanation.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Point thank you.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
But like I, I the first of all the phone automatically,
so I would have to make an effort to not
capitalize the first letter of a sentence.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I'm okay with capitalization.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Oh you are okay. You just don't like periods in
full sentences.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Just stop hurting us. Yeah, I don't like periods. Periods
are the worst.
Speaker 5 (09:20):
But how do I stop a thought?
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Then? That's what I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
That's what I mean. I'm just gonna write you a paragraph.
I was going to be efficient. This is what I
have to say.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Where are the emojis?
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Boom boom by?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Where the gifts?
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Instead of what? Instead?
Speaker 2 (09:31):
I would have to write you like seven lines of
a text message. I think that's aggressive.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Just be happy. Just love me.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I am happy, I do love you. Catch what you
have has already told you that it's okay.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
I've already I've already accepted that.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
I'm gonna get punctuation, and I'm just gonna have to
wonder if you hate me.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
I'm supposed to write non punctuated sentences to Kayla because
it hurts her feelings.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
You can do eight exclamations and a heart and it's
a glitter.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
And then I'll know you guys.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
I'm worse so because and Kaylen does this to me
and I never told you this, but it hurts my feelings.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Let's get it out. Let's get it out.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
You know, I think everyone here has done it to me.
I'm pretty sure I don't like a thumbs up. When
you thumbs up something, Oh, it is very passive aggressive.
It makes me sad.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I think there are different formats of that's when you
would like click on the message and make it, make
it a thumbs up, or respond with a thumbs up.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
I respond I got it, Like got it, I've read it,
I've received, I'm good, or like when you like my message,
like don't thumbs up it, like put a heart or
an exclamation point to be.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Cool, Okay, you're on? Or may I please?
Speaker 6 (10:33):
The reason that I thumbs up because you're referring to
when you tell me what I text you good morning.
I get carpool that you're the only person that gets
a good morning text. That is true, so were that.
But you tell me what time you're going to pick
me up, and sometimes the time changes, and if I
don't acknowledge that the time change. Even though I saw it,
you will call me and worry that I didn't see it.
(10:55):
So I try to do a thumbs up so you
know I saw it.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah, it is a way of ignoring. I think it
depends on the context, like for example.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
That is, but I'll do a heart. I apologize.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
It's been a very busy couple of weeks. We've been traveling,
we doing all kinds of stuff. This week's been really busy,
and a friend of mine's been trying to track me
down and I haven't been responsive. And it's not on purpose,
it's just every time I think to respond, I haven't.
And so finally it was like the person was like, hey,
I'm actually kind of worried about your non response. So
I were, oh my god, I'm really sorry, like this
why I traveled yesterday, this is what I've been doing.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I've been doing this and everything.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
And I was very apologetic, and what I got in
response was a thumbs up.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
No.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
That was a passive aggressive way of saying you know
what I mean.
Speaker 5 (11:31):
It's an text that was somebody going.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
To Okay, you know, got it, you know whatever, because
they even though I said I was sorry and I
and I acknowledge why I wasn't able to be responsive
in that case.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
It was passive aggressive.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
But a heart would have been okay, right, if he
sent a heart.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Would have been cool or hey, thanks for whatever, just
because look, I'm sorry, it's just been a little nutty
around here.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Later, I mean, we just I just changed it down here.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
She did no more thumbs ups myself again. Yeah, I
don't know why I take things so personal. I would
never thumbs up something like that though. That is like
it's like we are at war.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
No, actually, I actually thought that was actually going to rude.
I actually actually let me say it again. Actually I
actually thought it was kind of right.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
So he wants a response from you. You give him
finally what he wants.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
And it was a girl.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
So I hate to say this, but I know it would.
I know it was massive aggressive for that reason.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
You guys hate you left her, you ignored her for days.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Yeah, all right, you've it, But no I don't because
if you're actually but I didn't do it on purpose.
I just realized I had done it, and I was like,
oh my gosh. Because a lot of times what happens
is people will text me at eight o'clock nine o'clock
at night and I'm asleep. Yeah, and so I wake
up at three thirty four and I see it, and
I'm not going to respond then, because I don't know
of your deliveries and I don't know how I'm not
(12:45):
going to respond to you at three in the morning
or four in the morning, yes, when I first see it,
and sadly, by ten am or whatever, when I finally
get back to whatever else I had to do when
the show's over, I've kind of forgotten about what happened
at three or four.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
In the morning exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
So I don't mean to not respond. It's just depending
on when you text me. I may not respond to
you out of courtesy because you know, maybe your phone's on,
and so if I text you for one more dang,
I wake you up. Now that's rude. So anyway, but
I think people take this too seriously. If you write
me in all capital, if you write me with a
bunch of exclamation points, you know, there are certain things
(13:20):
that definitely say to me like you're trying to convey
an attitude or mentality. But if I just write you
a complete sentence with a period at the end, because
I have a four year degree in English, and my
mom would be very upset with me. Well, I mean
I may use it, mayfull use it for something sentence structure,
you know. But then Helen, it won't talk to me
for seven weeks. So we just got to the end
(13:41):
of seven weeks and I texted her, so I think
it's another seven weeks have no touch. No, I don't
think it is. It's not National Supermarket Employee Day to day.
It's National Caregivers Day today as well. The Entertainment Report

Speaker 5 (14:01):

Speaker 2 (14:04):
Life running in our diaries, except we say them aloud.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
We call them blog. Jason Brown's got one.
Speaker 5 (14:08):
Go Yes, thank you, dear blog.
Speaker 7 (14:10):
So I'm in a very petty fight with my boyfriend Mike,
and it's been going on for this is day five.
So on Monday I had a dentist appointment, but it
was also very cold where we're at currently, and so
when Mike got up and when tried to go to work,
both of his cars that he normally drives were dead
(14:32):
in the driveway. So he's like, I got to take
your car. And but then you know, because he had
to go open the gayage right exactly, like the garage
has to be open. Work starts today. So I'm like, well,
the guy's a mechanic too. You think you go out
to hey, the cars will run. Who's gonna fix it?
Speaker 8 (14:48):
Right?
Speaker 5 (14:48):
Exactly?
Speaker 7 (14:48):
You need like a jumper box or something that was
at the shop. So we had to go to get
the ge So he took my car to the garage
and was like, Okay, as soon as I get a
break and the guy that works with him, as soon
as he comes in, I'll come back and switch your
car out. So an hour goes by, two hours go by,
three hours go by, he doesn't come back with my car,
(15:09):
and so I'm like, okay, he's busy. I get it,
like let me be patient whatever. But then I start
getting mad because I'm like, okay, now you're not thinking
about me, right, Like you're not thinking, yeah, I told
you I had to go to the dentist. For those
that don't know, I'm phobic of the dentist. So I've
already committed to go to the dentist. I've made the appointment,
which is hard enough as it is. I'm going so
instead of calling him, I'm like, I'm gonna be petty
(15:30):
and take an uber right to my dentists appointment.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
So that.
Speaker 7 (15:36):
So I call an uber, getting the uber on my
way to the dentist. I'm like, so I call him
and I'm like, hey, He's like, oh, I got a sorry,
he got busy. I gotta I was gonna come in
search a car. I'm like, it's okay, I'm in an uber.
Don't worry about it. It's fine. But can I pick
my car up on the way. I'll have the uber
drop me at my car on the way back to
show the cab or do.
Speaker 5 (15:56):
You still need my car? Is what I said. Mind
you let me just umbrella this real quick.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
He gave me the car, right like, it's very much
his car that he gave me.
Speaker 5 (16:06):
I did not pay for it. Okay, so here here's
me a title.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
I mean that he doesn't need to follow through on
what you know. I love Mike, but that doesn't mean
that he doesn't need to do what he said he
was gonna do. Because you have a place to go to,
right and if he's not going to do that, then
he just needs to tell you I'm not going to
do that, right, and then you you know, go about
your business right the Uber.
Speaker 5 (16:24):
So then I get an Uber back to the shop.
Speaker 7 (16:26):
I get dropped off at the Gayarage to get my car,
and so he's like, oh, you know, I'm the mechanic,
but you know my cars are broken. I was like, well,
I'm the one that's got Uber everywhere today. It's just
spending fifty dollars in Uber he wore on the dentist, right.
So then he comes home that night then leaves fifty
leaves fifty dollars.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Cash by my wallet. I was like, I don't want that.
You're not paying for that.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
It might be right, right, yeah, done cash money right.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
So then I get up the next morning and I
leave it back by his stuff.
Speaker 5 (16:53):
Here's the fifty dollars cash.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Right.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
I come home, it's back by my stuff.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Right.
Speaker 7 (16:57):
So this has been going on for five days now
that we are passing cash back and forth and I'm
leaving it. At what point do I just give it
in to keep my money? Because keep the money your girl.
Your girl doesn't have a pay pay day for a
week or so, so.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Keep the mind he's yeah, I like that.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
Has it been enough time? Has he learned his lesson?
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You think? No, I can't believe this, No lesson has
been learned. Really can't get this.
Speaker 8 (17:20):
Man is putting his feet on the ground, going to work,
trying to make a coin to take care of Jason.
He's given Jason the car. He's not y'all like Mike
is down at the hooter.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
It's having a good time.
Speaker 8 (17:32):
Like, no, he's at work. He got busy. Jason could
have called any of us to get a ride.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Yeah, this is entitled with the car. He gave my
car back.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
You are, Yeah, he's spoiled.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Tell me the last petty fight that you got in
with Big Tim, Tim, don't fight with me. Tell me
tell me the last time you were petty with Big Tim,
though I guarantee you was in the last seven days.
Speaker 8 (17:58):
Me petty never. But now Victim doesn't entertain any of
my foolishness. Like if I would have did that, like
I'm in an uber. He was like, Okay, let me
know how your appointment goes. But like I have a
good day. It is like, yeah, that man has a
sense of peace that only.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Want one.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
I kind of do the same thing, which makes me
look insensitive. But I'm just gonna be okay, Like if
I know, if I know that, if I know we're
headed in the direction it's not going to be like
healthy and fruitful. Then it's like if I know that
I'm being baited, Okay, Okay, yep, you win, Okay, you
know because smart man. But it just it really disarms
(18:43):
the petty.
Speaker 7 (18:43):
Most of the time that is me because he's very
much like the vocal one, the yeller, and I will
not like it will. It's got to take woo to
get me to that level. Like I could probably kind
on one hand how many times that's happened in our relationship
in fourteen years. But like I'll be the one that's
like okay and just walk away.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
You really him on this way, I'm in the look
at me, I'm an independent match money.
Speaker 5 (19:05):
