Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Morning Breeze, The Morning Breeze on Demand. It is
April sixteenth, twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
How are you court, I'm great, good, I'm up and
ready for the day. Who I think?

Speaker 1 (00:15):
You know what?

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Bye?

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Good?

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Well, We're glad you're here. Yesterday, for those of you
that commute to the East Bay from San Francisco and
even to the Peninsula, because I know somebody who lives
on the Peninsula in the South Bay, the traffic getting
out of the city yesterday afternoon was ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Do you feel like it was more than normal or
is that your standard day? So yesterday was Tuesday, it
was a stand or Tuesday. You normally don't do that
commute in the afternoon.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
Leave that late in the day. I left around four
four point thirty.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
I think what happened is there was a car fire
on the Bay Bridge yesterday afternoon, and that just ruined
everything for everybody, no matter what direction you were going,
because all of the approaches to the bridge yeh like
backed up into the city. People even that were trying
to get to the South Bay sure just to get
out of the city, they couldn't get to where they
were going on time, and it took hours for people

(01:08):
to get home, no matter where you were going. So
today is a new day and it's a fresh start.
But sorry about yesterday because I was in that with you.
That was brutal and you and.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
You're counting your blessings this morning that you don't have
to make that afternoon commute because there are people who
do that every single day.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Yeah, but I think yesterday might have been worse than
norm exception. But yeah, I thought about that multiple times
on my way home. My boy, people do this on
the daily. Now we are at eight seven seven nine
eight one, nine eight one. This morning on the show,
we have more chances for you to win tickets to
go see Little River Band at Cash Creek Casino Resort.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, we've been giving these away all week long and
we're throwing in the overnight stay. So you go to
the show and then you stay overnight. You don't have
to worry yourself about getting home.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Yeah, stay over night, just hang out and enjoy, eat
some good food, have a couple drinks, and just stay
at the beautiful Cash Creek Casino Resort. They've got everything
you need there. So that that is happening at eight
twenty this morning, We also have the Morning Breeze Brain
Teas that's coming up at six twenty five.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
All right, so this is something that can happen to
kids at any age and even adults, but experts say
it's something that happens the most between the ages of
ten and fourteen.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
And it's kids. It's not necessarily boys versus girls. Yeah,
just kids in general.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
And again it can happen to kids at any age
and even adults, so everybody can experience this, but again
experts say it's something that happens the most between the
ages of ten and fourteen.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
All right, let's see what people think eight seven, seven nine,
eight one oh nine eight one. That's how you reach
us with your guesses. We're going to play Morning Breeze
Brain Teas at six twenty five right here at Bueze Bruno,
Mars six twenty four, and it is the Morning Breeze
with Carolyn and Court. It is that time. It is
time for the Morning Breeze Brain Teas, which is sponsored

(02:52):
by Mike Counsel Plumbing. You're in clean hands with Mike
Council Plumbing and you can see them online at mc
plumbing dot com. Let's see about this one. Today.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
All right, today we're talking about something that can happen
to kids at any age and even adults, but experts
say it's something that happens the most between the ages
of ten to fourteen.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
All right, eight seven, seven, nine, eight one oh nine
eight one. Ed in Tracy, good morning. What do you
think peer pressure?

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Peer pressure?

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Wow? Yeah, that is such a good guess. I wouldn't
have even thought to come up without That is so true.
Did you guys have that as kids? Like as boys?

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, I mean someone are gonna push you to do
something as you know you're not exposed to, and some do,
some don't. I think that for boys the peer pressure
is more like on a physical side, just doing dumb things,
whereas with girls it's more of a psychological peer pressure.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
And you can still be peer pressured as an adult,
you can.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
Yeah, exactly. Nowadays it can go either way, no matter
male or female.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah, it's true. You should see what happens behind the
scenes here in this studio.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
Ed.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
He said, a bit is that the answer that that is.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Not the answer?

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Carolyn, Well, hey, Ed, have a good day, all ye,
good morning, Sue and Santa Rosa.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
I was breaking all kinds of bones.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
I was an active child, so ten to fourteen, man,
I was breaking ankles, arms, legs.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Wow, so you're saying breaking bones.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
I remember when I was a teenager, I was swinging
on my parents awning, yeah, on their backyard, and I
fell and landed on my tailbone. No, on my arm
and broke it. But I felt so cool because I
got to wear a cast and people signed it. Super cool.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
I brought up tailbone because my wife was swinging on
something I think a swing and jumped off and broke
her Tailbah, she broke it. Yeah, and you can't do anything.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
Oh, no, you cannot.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
So you broke a bone, Sue. How many bones have
you broken?

Speaker 3 (04:54):
For?

Speaker 2 (04:55):
A majority of which between the ages of ten and fourteen? Maybe, Yeah,
great answer, but the correct one.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
That's what I was doing at at age. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Experts say this happens the most for kids between the
ages of ten and fourteen, and that's experienced. Nightmares. Oh no,
mine started way young.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
I had them when I was little little. I always
had those falling dreams.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Yeah, from when I was a little little child.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
I don't know what that was about, but I had
them for years and years. Don't worry, Sue, I got you.
I'm looking you.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Have to do with I'm just gonna get insecurities and
not have feeling control of your life.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Court, you are correct. Falling dreams, according to AI, symbolize
the feeling of loss of control, anxiety, or helplessness in
one's waking life.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
I didn't need AI to tell you that.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
I guess Court is our new AI. On the Morning Breeze,
who knew, Sue? All right, we'll have a good day,
all right, take care all right, bye, Sue.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
It's the Morning Breeze brain tees. We do it every
weekday morning, six twenty five here on the Morning Breeze.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Coming up at six forty something we do every weekday morning.
It's ask us anything. We received an email yesterday from
Joan who listens to us, who is asking us a
question about something we talked about yesterday. Oh show very nice.
Follow up on Joan's email and answer her question and
see what you think is coming up on ask us anything.

(06:14):
It's six forty here on the Breeze.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Six forty three with Billy Joel here on ninety eight
point one the Breeze. It's the Morning Breeze. Carolyn and
Court and time now to ask us anything. This is
where you can literally ask us anything. And today our
question actually comes because of something we were talking about
yesterday during the morning Breeze brain teas.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yes, you had asked the question on yesterday's brain teas.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
The older you are, the least time you spend doing
this every day, and the answer was worrying. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
So we received an email from Joan who listens to us, and.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
She said, what that's all?

Speaker 1 (06:49):
She said, No, there's more. Okay, she said, I worry
now more than I ever did, not about the ZiT
on my face like I did in eighth grade. But
I guess it becomes more and more evident. There's not
a whole lot one person can control. Not that I'm
a control freak, I don't think. And then she said, Carolyn,
you sound like the nicest person in the world, so
I worry less when I know you and quarter on

(07:09):
the radio. Oh that's very sweet, and then she wrote,
but what do you worry about?

Speaker 3 (07:14):
Ah?

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Do you worry about?

Speaker 1 (07:17):
I would have to say the biggest thing that I
worry about is making sure that I'm doing enough for everyone.
Am I visiting my mom enough? Does she feel content
with the amount of time that I can give her
because my mom's an assisted living and is the dog happy.
By giving the dog enough time is like, I actually
care if my dog is happy, like I do care.

(07:38):
I don't want her to be sad. So my thing is,
am I giving all of my people and animals in
my life enough time but still being able to get
my own stuff done. So that's my probably big worry.
What's yours?

Speaker 3 (07:53):
Well?

Speaker 2 (07:53):
I know for me, just reflecting back on this, I
don't worry about the thing the same things they'd worried
about in my twenties and thirties, which was more kind
of superficial material things.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
That you didn't realize that at the time, right, Isn't
that so crazy?

Speaker 2 (08:05):
It's just because that's what was up for my face.
But kind of to your point. The things I worry
about are my two daughters. I've got two teenage daughters.
I worry about them and their happiness. I just want
them to be happy. I worry about my wife, same thing.
I want to make sure she's happy and she's content.
Charlie and Leo are little dogs. Want to make sure
they're happy and content doesn't take much, but yeah, I
want to make sure they're good.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
This just means you're a good person because you are
putting everybody ahead of your sort of like and you
care a lot about your people, so that that's a
good thing.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
On occasion, if I ever do some DIOI plumbing inside
the house, I worry that I might be flooding the basement.
But other than that, that's allgic. It's more, you know,
I worry about people more than anything else. That's a
legit concern, but good to know about the basement. So Joan,
thank you for your email. We really appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
You can call us at eight seven seven nine eight
one oh nine eight when you can send us a
talk back with our iHeartRadio app. And Joan did email us.
You can email through our website that's ninety eight one
the Breeze dot com.

Good morning to Alyssa in Santa Rosa. We understand you're
going to school doing something not a lot of women do.
What are you studying this time?

Speaker 3 (09:56):
I'm starting to be an auto mechanic.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
An auto mechanic that is so so cool. What do
you think you like most about working on cars?

Speaker 3 (10:04):
It's a giant puzzle.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
That's so someone brings a car into you and they say,
let's make it some funky noise. Tell us like what
goes through your brain? Like what's your process? What do
you do well?

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Where do they hear the noise coming from? What kind
of noise, isn't it Like, if it's a clicking it's
most likely the starter. If it's more of like a
knocking noise, it could be part of the engine that's
having problems. Or depending on the noise, it could be
low oil.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Alyssa, this is so cool.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
I love the I'm just envisioning your You're sitting in
class one day and your instructors is like, all right,
So if somebody comes in and they describe the sound
as then You're like, then that's got to be the carburetor.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
That is not usually one of the questions that I
take your okay?

Speaker 1 (10:56):
Or is she thinking this guy?

Speaker 2 (10:57):
I'm just curious to know how this goes, because I
think it's amazing when a mechanic can figure things out
simply by you describing a sound.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
I'm in my mom her cards hearing will vibrate twe
she slowed down, and that it's most likely a warped
break roader.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
Oh wow. I always wondered if my mom's minivan used
to do that. We could never figure it out. I
should have. I wish I'd known, Alyssa then gone, see Lyssa, Alyssa,

Good morning, it is the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Cork.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
Carolyn, I'm about to share with you and everybody a
very embarrassing moment that happened in my life. But there
is a hero to this story. Oh so recently I
traveled through San Francisco Airport SFO.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
Thank you for that much, you know, getting technical here. Thanks.
And I like to buy treats like little snacks take
on the plane.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
Oh yeah, So I.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Stopped into one of those little stores. It's got, you know,
the magazines, the books, the.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
Best travel pillows, kind bars, magazines, waters.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
That are like five times more expensive than they should be. Yes,
but nonetheless there I was buying myself some peanut butter
and Eminem's as you do. And the woman, her name
was Leah, came up to.

Speaker 5 (12:52):
Me and she said, excuse me, sir. I guess she's like,
there's some toilet paper stuff to the bottom of your shoe.
I had just come from the rest room and without
realizing it, you know, did that embarrassing thing where a
little bit of tailor toilet paper followed me out was
stuck to my bottom eye the shoe. But rather rather
than just telling me about it, which I was very

(13:12):
appreciative of, she put on she pulled on some rubber
gloves what actually removed it from my shoe and threw
it away. Did she work there?

Speaker 2 (13:19):
She worked there?

Speaker 3 (13:20):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Okay, Leah who worked at like I can't remember the
Newport News or whatever it's called. Those huts of Hudson Hudson.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
News, that's what it was, Newport News.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
Yeah, the Hudson News not only alerted me to it,
but she she took care of it for me.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
That's really nice.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Above and beyond.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
And then she charged you twenty dollars for a magazine.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
And then she charged me. Well, she didn't charge me.
She's not in charge of the price. I would never
hold that against her fault.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
She's there to help her customers have a great day.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
I just thought that was the kindest thing because she
was trying to be very discreet about it.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
Oh, that's really nice.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
It was very very kind.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
I feel like she her name's Leah, Leah somebody's mom,
Like that's a mom. Oh sure, because I would have
ignored you, that's all.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
You would have like snuggled.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
No, I would not have done that. But that is
really nice of her. It was very It was so
very kind. Would you do that for somebody?

Speaker 4 (14:14):
I don't know that I would if I didn't know them,
If I didn't know them, and they they they had
this embarrassing thing happening to them, I don't I honestly,
if I'm being honest, I don't know that I would have.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
I think I would have. If it was a woman,
I'd be like hapes, Yeah, but I wouldn't touch right, No,
she I mean she had she had all the the
she had the gloves there handy to help them out. Also,
why were her gloves so handy? Why were they already
I don't know, they just she's picking up pennies or
something these days.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Yeah, a lot of a lot of times people in
like convenience stores and stores whatnot, they don't want they're
touching money and all that.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Yeah, well, Leah, she is a hero, a hero. That's
a She's a toilet paper hero.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
And I wanted to make sure that everybody else knew
that Leah at s f O she's a hero.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
SFO Hudson News. Go see Lee and tell her thank
you on behalf of court. Did you thank her?

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Obviously thanked her profusely. Good.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Yeah, good, All right. Coming up this morning at eight twenty,
it's gonna be another chance for you to win those
tickets to go see Little River Band at Cash Creek
Casino Resort. This is happening on May second.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Yeah, we're not only sending you to the show, we're
also giving you an overnight State, so you can go
and enjoy the casino resort there at Cash Creek. You
can watch the Little River Band in the perfect venue, yes,
and then stay overnight.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Court was wowed by some Little Riverband hits behind the
scenes the other day. I kind of played a medley
for him and he was like like, oh yeah, yeah,
it loving it. So be here at eight twenty. That
is your next chance to win. Here on the Breeze.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
It's the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Court.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
So there is a debate on social media that moms
are questioning when did Easter become Christmas part two? Where
it's not about a small Easter basket with a couple
of treats it anymore.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
Which is what we were probably used to growing up.
That sounds like what you and I used to receive
when we were kids, right, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
It was an Easter basket. I mean it was generous,
but it was I hate to use the word simple,
but it was simpler than what is being described here
right now.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
Electronics.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
Yeah, videos on TikTok that are going viral of kids
getting these lavish gifts like Lululemon outfits and a kiddie
pool overflowing with candy. We're parents. It almost seems in
a way that parents are trying to outdo each other.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
That's exactly what's happening.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
And post those videos. But what do you think do
you feel like Easter has become Christmas? Part two? Eight
seven seven nine, eight nine eight one Terry and Rodeo, Like.

Speaker 6 (16:40):
You said, you got that Easter basket and you got
that little toy.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
That was that era.

Speaker 6 (16:46):
We're in a new era. We have a little more financially,
so why not go all out? And people only wait
for these holidays to celebrate Christmas, Easter, whatever the world says,
it's time for you to celebrate, that's what they celebrate.
Whereas I am around the culture where you go to

(17:08):
people's houses on the regular to have dinner, to play.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Games, so there's always a celebration going on.

Speaker 6 (17:15):
There's always a celebration going on, and it doesn't have
to be big, you know. But then they also are
looking at the kids anyway, are looking at well, they
got eastern.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
To they don't have longing for what the other kids have.

Speaker 6 (17:34):
But a wise grown up parent who guide in a
positive way, well they can see you're not really missing
if you want to think that. I'm going to try
to have you think it in a different way.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
That's when the parent has to become the parent.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
In exactly I mean to her point. I think that's
what's happening is and we mentioned this a minute ago,
is these parents become competitive with the gifts and with
social media. They want to post these gifts. It's almost
like it isn't about the child in some cases, and
that's certainly not for everybody, but you know when the
pairs are posting, look what I gave my kid, it's amazing.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
It's twofold. The pressure is the fomo and then it's
also keeping up with the Joneses. Yeah, both of those
things are at play.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
That's exhausting, Yes, it is. It's exhausting. Eight seven seven
nine eight one h nine eight one. Do you feel
like Easter has become Christmas? Part two? And are you
seeing these extravagant Easter baskets with people that you know
we'd love to hear from you or iHeartRadio app a
great way to communicate with us also.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
And coming up this morning at eight twenty, we're just
minutes away from this another chance to win tickets to
see the Little river Band at Cash Creek Casino Resort.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yes. And not only do you get to see this
great band play all the hits that they have, and
we mean all the hits, but we're gonna throw in
an overnight stay at Cash Creek.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
Your chance to win coming up at eight twenty here
on the Morning Breeze
