Busting Love Myths · Podcast - Big 98.7

• 0:00
  I have a few myths I want to bust like that MythBuster show when it
• 0:04
  comes to love. Okay, for example, and I know you're one,
• 0:07
  you've always talked about love languages marriage. That was like our pre marriage counseling
• 0:12
  was words of affirmation. It's like, okay, well this love expert has
• 0:16
  thrown that out the windows, saying basically the love language, saying while everybody
• 0:20
  thinks they identify with like one or two of the love languages, yeah,
• 0:23
  because you get an actual score and you do research shows though that we like
• 0:26
  them all. You know what I mean? Words of affirmation, yeah,
• 0:29
  sure, great, quality time, I guess, so, receiving gifts,
• 0:33
  love gifts, acts of service heck yet? And then don't even get me
• 0:37
  started on physical touch. You know, so do we really all have one
• 0:42
  love language or we just those all the lean into other things? So I
• 0:46
  can see how it works for some marriages or relationships. Which one was your
• 0:50
  least favorite physical touch? For sure? Okay? Okay, perfect. Another
• 0:56
  love myth I like to debunk happy wife, happy life, not no mo.
• 1:02
  Well, they say that the phrase we should be focusing on is happy
• 1:06
  spouse, happy house. Oh my gosh, I love that yes, I
• 1:10
  mean in twenty twenty four, where we're focused on equality. I think that's
• 1:12
  great because what a silly, outdated thing to say happy wife, happy life,
• 1:17
  Like, who cares how happy you are? You piece of garbage?
• 1:19
  Did you ever go as long as your wife's happy? It's great to a
• 1:23
  wedding where they have you feel out like, hey, some advice for the
• 1:26
  couple. Almost ninety percent of them are happy wife, happy life. Remember
• 1:30
  that nick owenky face. Yeah, I got you one more myth if you
• 1:34
  don't mind. Yeah, come on, foster. Unplanned intimacy is better.
• 1:41
  It's always better and more fun to be spontaneous. This love expert says,
• 1:45
  no, while it might sound more exciting, the research they've done is that
• 1:49
  basically, whether it was totally spontaneous or you had it scheduled on your calendar
• 1:53
  for six months, generally it ends up going about the same. Pretty exciting,
• 1:57
  I mean honestly, right you think about it, yes, yeah,
• 2:00
  like it's fun to like out of nowhere, Oh I didn't see this coming.
• 2:02
  Here we go, right, But then when it's all said and done,
• 2:06
  it's like, well that was much like the last time and the time
• 2:07
  before that, so oh no, oh stop it. You know what I
• 2:10
  mean. I'm saying, if you scheduled it, you're still gonna enjoy it.
• 2:14
  You know, you don't schedule you know, move by move like blow
• 2:17
  by blow. You don't have a plan of attack by any means. I'm
• 2:22
  just I'm saying, you don't even have a guy. A man is trying.
• 2:25
  It's like the old TV guy you used to get in the mail and
• 2:28
  you get super excited about it and be like, Okay at five pm,
• 2:31
  this is what's going on. All right, here's what I'm thinking. I'll
• 2:38
  do this. You ever just start laughing? Though? Sometimes did you ever
• 2:42
  get into a place and it's like do you just call it off? You're
• 2:44
  like, okay, this isn't Workay, listen, I've never called it off.
• 2:47
  We're going to see it through. But I'll be giggling the whole way
• 2:52
  like an in the morning, Big nutty eight point seven. I was a
• 2:54
  little offended the other day. A man and I were talking and I mentioned
• 2:57
  how my wife Lauren and I we share We are each other's locations on our
• 3:01
  phones, which is an option so that way I can look at my phone
• 3:05
  right now and it will show me a map and exactly where my wife currently
• 3:09
  is and vice versa, and you were just disgusted. I wasn't disgusted.
• 3:15
  I was just like, oh, wow, I we don't share our locations.
• 3:17
  I was just thought, you know, when we have kids, of
• 3:20
  course, I'm going to want to know where their location is at some point
• 3:23
  when we cross that phone bridge, which I hope that's a long way's way.
• 3:27
  But and I'm not trying to hide anything. It's just weird. But
• 3:30
  even now in your marriage, you don't think it would be not only not
• 3:32
  weird, but like beneficial to know your husband's locations at all time. He
• 3:38
  literally yesterday eta question Mark, he said, four thirty seven, I'll be
• 3:42
  rolling back in from wherever he was traveling to for work. I don't got
• 3:46
  to send that text because I know, obviously it could be something you're doing
• 3:49
  because you're insecure and you're suspicious. But if it's not the case, then
• 3:53
  it's just great. It's glorious. Not only do I share my location with
• 3:55
  my wife, but like my band, we all have each other's locations.
• 3:59
  Okay, stop it. Like my wife has my sister's location, so it's
• 4:01
  never a matter of oh, are they on their way? Are they coming
• 4:04
  is isn't there really see? I like this interpersonal communication where I can like
• 4:08
  call and you know, hey, how's the road tripped on? Yeah?
• 4:12
  You know that kind of thing. I'm a little suspicious why you won't share
• 4:15
  your location? That's where I'm at. But we were talking to somebody,
• 4:18
  And the reason this got brought up is because somebody we know who's like just
• 4:21
  dating somebody after what two dates? I think it was one date they were
• 4:27
  still talking and had done the like, hey location share and thought it was
• 4:30
  being cute. Nikes. No, I mean if somebody's asking that after one
• 4:34
  or two or three or even ten dates and then also no kind of like
• 4:39
  gaslighting this person to a why do you think this is so weird? Like
• 4:42
  why wouldn't you want to know where I'm at? But I just met you
• 4:45
  five seconds ago. This is why I feel like it's a little uh what's
• 4:48
  seven oh one two eight zho one ninety eight seven? What do you think?
• 4:50
  Good morning? Who's this? My name's Jessica. What's up, Jessica?
• 4:55
  Yeah, I think it's a good idea. Honestly, personally, are
• 4:57
  you in a relationship? No, at the moment, I'm not. I
• 5:00
  do have it on my child though, But even in a relationship, I
• 5:02
  think like for safety measures, like if something happened to say they were on
• 5:08
  a road trip, they amana, Susan wasn't a road trip and like he
• 5:11
  wasn't communicating, he wasn't responding, Boom, you got his location, Like
• 5:15
  something happened. Totally it's brilliant. But now I will say it from my
• 5:18
  experience. For example, if my wife's like traveling coming from Duluth or something,
• 5:23
  I'll just look at my phone and see where she's at, and it
• 5:25
  sometimes it glitches, and if it shows me that she's like stopped on a
• 5:28
  road like then I start to panic, like, oh my god, is
• 5:30
  she get in a car accident? You know she okay, yeah, no,
• 5:32
  I get that for sure. On your kids, I am not against
• 5:35
  that at all. In fact, if I could microship my kids right now,
• 5:39
  I would do hare tag them. The new relationship thing is the one
• 5:44
  that really got me uncomfortable. How soon into a relationship do you feel like
• 5:47
  you would be willing to share your location for me personally, probably like six
• 5:51
  months to a year, like, but anything before three months now that's weird.
• 5:57
  It would have be a red flag for you. If you did ask
• 5:58
  somebody and they refute to share their location, I mean, if they were
• 6:01
  like, oh, I'm just a private person, then yeah, you gotta
• 6:03
  go. That's a red PLA. Yeah. I just got a text message
• 6:06
  here with somebody who does their husband, their kids. But also they're close
• 6:10
  co workers. So, Pike, should we be sharing locations with each other?
• 6:13
  I already have yours. I did one of the you know, like
• 6:15
  in the movies you see them like sneak a little thing underneath the car when
• 6:20
  yeah, I have those on all my coworkers. Oh god, thank you
• 6:24
  so much. Like, yes, have a good day. I think you
• 6:28
  guys ought to do it. Amanda, I think you and your husband should
• 6:30
  share each other's locations. What do you think? We asked Nick? Sure,
• 6:32
  okay, because funny enough, I have him on the phone right now.
• 6:35
  Nick, are you there? Oh here? Yeah, Nick, we're
• 6:38
  throwing around the idea of Amanda and you sharing each other's locations on your phone.
• 6:42
  What do you think of that. The day that happens, I'll get
• 6:45
  a flip phone. Oh come on, what are you trying to hide there?
• 6:48
  Sir? Get Amanda in the morning. No, Amanda stills let's see,
• 6:57
  Let's see brought to buy Valley Service Mechanical. Katy released her track list
• 7:01
  for her upcoming album, The Tortured Poets Department yesterday, sixteen songs in total,
• 7:05
  plus a little bonus track called Manuscript. I think if you get the
• 7:09
  vinyl. But she's got some collaborations, interesting post Malone being one of them,
• 7:13
  and Florence in the Machine. The one song title that got me was
• 7:16
  Floriad with three exclamation points. I'm like, is this just like a Florida
• 7:21
  girl's anthem? Like they went down and partied. I just have so many
• 7:26
  questions. I can't wait to hear it. You know the last song that
• 7:28
  was about a weekend partying in Florida. What Vanilla ICE's renowned track Ice Ice
• 7:33
  Baby that was in Florida? Yeah, a one a beat front avenue.
• 7:40
  Oh my bad, you know a little. I talked to him one time,
• 7:45
  you know, did you Vanilla? And I was on stage with you
• 7:47
  them one time and didn't know until I saw the pictures. I was like,
• 7:50
  oh that was a fun night, Amanda. Oh good embarrassing. You
• 7:54
  had a little loosey goosey, didn't you? You were there? Yeah?
• 7:57
  I know. Well, anyway, I'm talking to Vanilla as I call him.
• 8:00
  I was like, hey, dude, what was that song about?
• 8:03
  And it was a dumb question, probably, but you say I explained it
• 8:05
  was about one wild weekend in Miami. Really, yeah, I gotta go
• 8:09
  back and hear the lyrics because I'm thinking, like, Ice, Ice baby,
• 8:13
  what does that have anything to do with having a good time. It's
• 8:16
  deeper than that. I know. It's not underestimate his songwriting. Now,
• 8:20
  Okay, you said he was featured on the new album Taylor sw I don't
• 8:22
  even know why we started talking about Vanilla Ice. Well you brought it up,
• 8:26
  Oh Florida. Yeah, okay, Oh so post Malone on the track.
• 8:31
  Though, that sounds like a guaranteed hit, I would think, Yeah,
• 8:33
  No, I'm super excited. Demi Moore, she was with Drew Berrymore
• 8:37
  yesterday talking about a lot of different things, but she ended up dishing that
• 8:41
  she still has some of the pots in her home that she created with Patrick
• 8:46
  Swayzey from that infamous scene in Ghost. She said that the saddest looking things,
• 8:50
  but I still kept up. I'm like, that's awesome. I've never
• 8:54
  seen that film. No way, you've never seen Ghost. No, it
• 8:58
  sounds interesting. There was a famous pottery scene. Is that right? Get
• 9:03
  out of here? Is that like the whole plot of the movie your girl
• 9:07
  Whoopye is in this? Yeah? I know, does Whoopee have any nude
• 9:11
  scenes? I need to shut this program down, Drake. Yesterday there was
• 9:18
  a video that was released of him laying in bed and he was just there
• 9:20
  by himself, let's just say, hanging around. It was very uncomfortable.
• 9:26
  He is not ashamed of it at all. Oh, we don't know that
• 9:28
  for sure. Well, he was sending his buddy laughing emojis when the guy
• 9:31
  called him out, saying like, well, way to go, bud.
• 9:35
  He might be ashamed because it might be so excessive that it'd be like almost
• 9:39
  embarrassing. You know. Oh come on, I mean there's a point,
• 9:43
  right, Isn't there a line where it's like, okay, a little there's
• 9:46
  a little much. Don't you think it was a little much? Well,
• 9:50
  if there's a line, he found it Amanda in the morning on Big seven.
• 9:56
  Does money buy happiness? I mean you hear that all the time.
• 10:00
  Have money? Now you hear money? What do you hear all the time?
• 10:01
  Is money doesn't buy happiness? And it's just the easiest thing to be
• 10:05
  like, yeah, right, that's just what they tell us. But really
• 10:09
  they put it to the study A manded. They did this whole study across
• 10:11
  the globe where basically they went into these little like villages and communities where people
• 10:16
  like really have no income in all. Yeah, absolutely, and you know
• 10:18
  what they found. They found they indeed were happy. And so the conclusion
• 10:22
  was that money does not buy happiness. I like this. I think of
• 10:26
  some of like the happiest moments that I have, and it's typically like the
• 10:31
  smallest things, if that makes sense. Like for me, it's like the
• 10:33
  nostalgia of going back to where I grew up at the lake and being there,
• 10:37
  like that's my quote happy place, you know what I mean. But
• 10:39
  you also got to have a lake place. So that's where I grew up.
• 10:41
  But a lot of people, like for my husband that he enjoys it
• 10:45
  now, but his happy place is just being back in Iowa with the corn
• 10:48
  No, I'm just kidding whatever, you know what I mean, wherever that
• 10:50
  nest a lake house, he had a corn house. He had a cornhouse.
• 10:54
  Yeah, big cornhouse, guy. Uh, But you know what I
• 10:56
  mean. I feel like that's what truly makes you have is when you're in
• 11:01
  those moments or those places. Well, it's one thing when you're a kid,
• 11:03
  because obviously you don't even have a context so what money even is.
• 11:07
  And you can have just as much fun with a rubber tire as you can
• 11:09
  with the most expensive you know, gaming or play devices, totally, but
• 11:13
  obviously as an adult there is something to the fact that, like, if
• 11:16
  you're financially just crippled, you know, you're drowning in debt, you can't
• 11:20
  make ends meet financially, that's the struggle that is adding some negativity to your
• 11:26
  life. Whereas if you had a bunch of money and none of those things
• 11:28
  existed, yeah, that would help a lot. But rich people still find
• 11:31
  problems, of course, sometimes even more so. I think we adjust to
• 11:35
  whatever your situation is. Whether you were a caveman who had no money and
• 11:39
  you just had like some rocks, you think they found some happiness. I
• 11:43
  bet they did, especially if they found a heart rock or something like,
• 11:46
  Hey, they don't even the modern day heart shape wasn't invented until the late
• 11:52
  eighteenth century. Are you crazy? You think? Are you think you think
• 11:56
  a homo erectus was finding a hard shape a drop and going and then going
• 12:01
  over to somebody else and going I don't know how they talked. How did
• 12:05
  they talk? You know how it came man like going up, Oh yeah,
• 12:09
  like kind of the tarzan ish like going up to say it's Jane and
• 12:13
  you found the heart. It's like she's because they're super and she goes no,
• 12:18
  I'm thinking more like if they managed to take down a t rex,
• 12:22
  imagine the happiness there. Probably chances aren't good. No way way are you
• 12:28
  taking down You're telling me Homo erectus couldn't take down a t rex. Have
• 12:33
  you seen dinosaurs skin? As a matter of fact, man that I haven't
• 12:39
  trending. Now here's what you need to know. Well, in case you
• 12:43
  missed it, Yesterday was Red Tuesday and it's a holiday that kind of continues
• 12:48
  up until Valentine's Day. If you're in a relationship that you're like, what
• 12:50
  does Red Tuesday? I know, But as far as the breakup, I'm
• 12:56
  getting there. Hang on, so this I think it's only a one day
• 12:58
  thing. Red Tuesday was yesterday and it is all the lead up to Valentine's
• 13:03
  Day. If you're with somebody that you may be you know it's not going
• 13:07
  to work out. You have since yesterday all the way up until Valentine's Day
• 13:11
  to cut it off, and Pizza Hut wants to help. They've launched Day
• 13:13
  Goodbye Pies. It is a limited edition hot Honey Goodbye Pie that they'll deliver
• 13:20
  the spicy news in a sweet way for free the custom piece of pizza box.
• 13:24
  You can like write their name, like, hey, whoever it is,
• 13:28
  you're out of here. Still, let me give me a sure getting
• 13:31
  this right. Red Tuesday goes for about a week. That's one of the
• 13:35
  longest Tuesdays I've ever heard. But hey, if you know they're not the
• 13:41
  one, definitely break up with them before Valentine's Day. That was the thing.
• 13:46
  I think Red Tuesday's like the kickoff of it, Like, hey,
• 13:48
  like Fat Tuesday. Yes, exactly, there we go. Sorry, thank
• 13:52
  you for clarifying that. Of course, everybody else who was super confused.
• 13:56
  What Super Bowl commercials? I cannot believe seven million dollars a pop for a
• 14:01
  thirty second ad is really they could charge whatever they wanted. It's the single
• 14:07
  greatest piece of advertising real estate that exists. Yeah, the most people,
• 14:11
  it's the most watched television event every year by far. Some of these people
• 14:16
  are doing a great job about teasing. Like I just was on Instagram and
• 14:20
  I saw a it looks like Frank's Red Hot Sauce. Ye and Jason Kelsey
• 14:24
  are teaming up for something, but they've just done like this ridiculous, like
• 14:28
  fifteen second clip of him shaking a bottle of Frank Sauce and it says like,
• 14:33
  look forward to the actual ad. I appreciate that kind of marketing because
• 14:37
  some of these others they're not even spoilers, or they're spoilers because they're just
• 14:41
  showing you the entire commercial already. Who cares they're commercials. I don't know
• 14:46
  they're advertisements. I missed the good old days. Call me a boomer.
• 14:50
  I used to love watching the Super Bowl for the commercials like Jennifer Anison,
• 14:54
  David Swimmer, Jelly Roll, the Beckhams, and Usher. They're starting to
• 14:58
  start in a commercial for Uber Eats. Arnold Twartzenegger is going to be teaming
• 15:03
  up with Jake from State Farm, Aubrey Plaza, Nick Offerman from Parks and
• 15:07
  rec. They're going to have reunion for Mountain Dew, and then there's going
• 15:09
  to be a bud Light New super Bowl Genie that is going to be granting
• 15:13
  wishes with Peyton Manning and post Malone, Okay and more. We've already seen
• 15:16
  the one where they're trying to get a bunch of people, actors, musicians
• 15:20
  are trying to get over this mountain and seeing this this is how it goes.
• 15:24
  I couldn't even tell you what the product was. I've seen the commercial.
• 15:26
  They've already say then that's probably Go Daddy, because isn't that their stick?
• 15:31
  Like you watch an entire commercial and you have no idea what it's about,
• 15:33
  and then it's Go Daddy does. For years, I didn't know what
• 15:35
  Go Daddy was. Danica Patrick was just being all sexy in the commercial and
• 15:39
  I just remember that. But then you know, eventually I would need to
• 15:41
  create a website and I was like, oh, okay, that's what Go
• 15:45
  Daddy does. I know. I'm trying to think. There was a couple
• 15:46
  over the last years where you have no idea and then they have you like
• 15:50
  either scan the QR code or they'd have like a follow up and you're like,
• 15:54
  oh my gosh, that's what about. See those are the commercials that
• 15:56
  I think were if I was a marketing expert, and you are. I
• 16:00
  am, all right. ESPN, Fox, and Warner Brothers Discovery announced they
• 16:04
  have a plan to launch a brand new streaming platform. They're all coming together
• 16:08
  and at least fifteen different networks and all four major professional sports leagues are teaming
• 16:14
  up for this app. We don't know how much it's going to be supposed
• 16:17
  to launch in the fall. I'm guessing this one isn't going to be your
• 16:19
  nine to ninety nine, fifteen ninety nine. They were thinking more, and
• 16:22
  we were reading this expert saying that if they come in right under what you
• 16:26
  would pay for normal like TV service, so like seventy to one hundred dollars,
• 16:30
  maybe under that just a bit, But then it's just what are you
• 16:33
  getting. It's not going to be an app that has every game of all
• 16:36
  of those four major sports, right. It's not going to show you every
• 16:38
  NFL game, because that already on its own is one hundreds of dollars subscription
• 16:44
  a year with the NFL Ticket Sunday NFL Ticket. So there's no way that's
• 16:48
  just football. Yeah, but football is so much bigger than any of those
• 16:52
  other sports. I don't know, I just I saw this, I'm like,
• 16:53
  yes, this is exciting. I bet my husband is jacked about this.
• 16:56
  But it's like, okay, so now we're adding another one because we
• 16:59
  already have ESPN Plus, but that's with Hulu and Disney. So the expert
• 17:03
  also did say when they were talking about this, you can just go ahead
• 17:06
  and add that into the bundle. I don't think, honestly, for anybody.
• 17:08
  This is just for like if you're living alone and you're just a sports
• 17:11
  guy or girl. But if you want to watch any other TV at all,
• 17:15
  you're better off just getting a normal TV, Hulu, Live, YouTube
• 17:18
  TV, a cable search. We have mid co. Sure yeah, sure,
• 17:22
  Like we're old school. We like it like the normal, the normal
• 17:26
  television. Well, yeah, that's fine. Is that nice? I don't
• 17:29
  know how much do you pay? I'll tell you how nice. It is
• 17:32
  very cost effective. Like in a minute in the morning on Big Nuddy Points,
• 17:38
  I've asked this question a million times, never had an actual good answer
• 17:42
  for it. But are you a sparkling water gal, I'll drink it.
• 17:45
  I actually am just kind of like a regular water and lemon girls, Well,
• 17:49
  then choose the side. Because for those of us that are sparkling water
• 17:55
  people, it's a lifestyle. But the question has always been is it just
• 17:57
  as healthy as regular Does it hydrate you just like water? Is it good
• 18:02
  for you? And I've got the answers, okay, okay, So one,
• 18:04
  the question of whether or not it hydrates you like your normal regular flat
• 18:08
  water. Experts say the effects of the carbonation on the hydration negligible, as
• 18:15
  in not really making a difference. So yes, it hydrates you just as
• 18:18
  much. Okay, good to know, because my kids love sparkling waters.
• 18:22
  Sparkling water, it's just something about it. It's just a little bit of

  this, of course, they say, it does hurt your teeth. The
• 18:49
  old sparkling they say, when you drink it, there's a chemical reaction in
• 18:53
  your mouth that turns carbon dioxide into an acid and then erodes the enamel on
• 18:59
  your teeth. Ye, there's some given here. Yeah, everything is in
• 19:03
  moderation. And also just like financially, just stick with the regular H two
• 19:07
  l beg of lemons is usually a lot cheaper than do you ever just do
• 19:11
  water with lemon? No mint, you number, no nothing. Sometimes I'll
• 19:15
  put a pickle in there, do you big pickle water guy? Pickle pw
• 19:19
  is I called. We're not talking beer like we're we're talking H two oh.
