  Speaker 2: six nine two seven forty three sixty one. Why are
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: you feeling good this morning there at Chilia mar.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: I'm feeling good because today's the open house for my
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: son's middle school. He's starting seventh grade, which is the
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: first year of middle school, and where we live in
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: Fairfax County, and so he gets to schedule today Toby, Yeah,
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: that's fun. This afternoon, my husband and I, along with
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: our son Donado, we'll go to the school together at
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: one o'clock and we will walk to his different classes
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: and classrooms and meet his teachers. So I'm feeling good
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: because I'm looking forward to kind of seeing how he
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: adjusts to this.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: New normal next week when school starts.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: So yeah, this is growing up to quote that Blink
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: one two song from back in the day, and I
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: remember those first days of school. They were always fun.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: There was anticipation, probably a degree of anxiety, but you
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: know what, back to school is on the brain of
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: everybody right about now in the DMV. I'm feeling good
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: because yesterday I did something proactive with our insurance company.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: You know how they require pre authorization for a lot
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: of things. M Well, there was some back and forth
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: that caused me to miss two months of physical therapy
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: because of approvals between insurance companies and hospitals. It was
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: kind of crazy, honestly. Well, knowing that I have six
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: sessions left from this approval, I went and shot the
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: fired off the shot across the bout with the insurance
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: company and said, hey, this needs to happen. It needs
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: to be seamless. I do not want to lose two
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: months of physical therapy again because of whatever. And so
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: they're on it. The good people at the insurance company
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: are on it today and I should expect an email
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: confirmation of different things that they're doing to make sure
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: that we're ready to go. I mean, I didn't come
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: across as angry, but I just called an asked, and
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I worked ahead and wasn't last minute, so little wins,
• 2:17

  Speaker 2: Now hang out for a few minutes here at ninety
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: seven point one wash FM.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Single moms are making mom munes really popular. This may
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: actually be a very attractive option for you and you'll
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: hear more about it.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: It's like a commune, only it's not. It's a mom mune.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: The question this morning here at ninety seven point one
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: WASHEFM with Toby and Chilly in the morning, is would
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: you raise your kids with your best friend. Seems like
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: single moms are choosing to do just this across the
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: country and what they call the mom mune.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there was actually a feature on the Today Show
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: two single mom teachers decided to move into a New
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: York City apartment together with their three kids to split
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: the housing finances and also the mental load of parenting.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: You know, it takes a village, and.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: It's certainly easier to do that when you have somebody
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: to share those responsibilities with.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: You know, then they're splitting up everything like you're cooking,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: the rent, the chores, the child care. But they're not
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: a couple, so don't get it twisted. They're just like, hey,
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: we're friends, sometimes best friends. I would say chilly that
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: a mom mune sort of a thing fascinates me because
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: sometimes that can be a little bit too much on
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: a friendship, and I wonder what that might entail if
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: a mom mune goes bad.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: I will say, I've thought about doing this if I
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: ever got forbid, got a divorce, or lost my husband
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: in any way, shape or form. You would have to
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: choose the right people or person to do it with.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: And the kids are the center of the home. So
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: this is all about helping you manage your life logistically
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: with the child and financially raising a child.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: It's six six, nine, seven, forty three sixty one. It's
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: the number you can also tap the talk back microphone.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: If you have some thoughts, would you raise your kids
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: with your best friend in a mom mune sort of
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: a situation.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: Or a dad june.
• 7:57
  Speaker 6: Well, well I didn't say that, but you know what
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: that is true.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, like I need that do it? I couldn't.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, what's good for the mom mune is good
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: for the dad yune. Right right. We just got a
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: talkback message from Brittany who is commuting into work this
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: morning with Aaron.
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Can we live together?
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: We have a mom mune and we wouldn't do anything
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: without it.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: It's amazing perfection.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Yes, thank you, and thank you for leaving that message.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Perfect she said, perfection, Chill.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: I think that in the area that we live in
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: and how expensive it is to raise kids, the mom
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: mune idea should continue to grow.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: There you go, think of a house. She could have
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: you split that rent between like two three four moms.

  Speaker 2: rewards program this morning? What are your favorite rewards programs?
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Are they useful? We're talking about it and you might
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: have some thoughts at eight sixty six ninety two seven
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: forty three sixty one. Is it worth it to you
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: these loyalty programs? Ninety seven point one, Washchef M. Toby
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: and Chile in the morning at eighty six six nine
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: two seven forty three sixty one, if you want to
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: jump into this conversation. Loyalty programs are a way that
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: businesses do get data about the customers. I will say that.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: Well, except you don't know how much data. And there
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: was a journalist for Wired. He requested his personal data
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: from McDonald's and he said he got back a five
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: hundred and fifteen page file that was packed with years
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: of his purchase history, his loyalty points, and even ai
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: predictions on exactly how often he would visit, what he'd spend,
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: and how likely he was to ever stop being a customer.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Are you using your mobile app for the order today?
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: I'd like you to know that we're keeping all of
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: your information for years.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: But they're using it in a smart I think, in
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: a smart business way.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: They're trying to see what this customer likes. How do
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: we keep this customer coming back? I have nothing against that.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: And by the way, can we admit that some loyalty
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: programs are much better than others and where you do
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: get the most bang for your buck.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, I'll give all the data that I can
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: to Southwest Airlines because their rapid rewards program is one
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: of the best loyalty programs on the planet, period, hands down.
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: Prove me wrong.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: I'll wait, that's funny you bring that up, because all
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: our loyalty points and programs are food related or restaurant related,
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: like for Silver Diner or Potbelly or all these places
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: where you order a certain amount and then you get
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: all these points and you can redeem it for sandwiches
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: and cookies and shakes.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, hello, pot Belly and Silverniner, tremendous loyalty programs.
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: Prove her wrong, she'll waits.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: I think that loyalty programs are what you make of them,
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: and if they really do payoff, then I don't mind.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: And as long as that data is not being used
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: against you, then I don't mind.
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Like, if this starts ending up on the deep web,
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: there's gonna be some sort of a class action Shenanigan.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: And y'all know what I'm talking about because you've seen
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: it in the news when loyalty programs go sideways. So
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: tell us what are the best loyalty programs in your opinion?
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: Are they worth it? Eight six six nine two, seven
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: forty three sixty one Give us call because we're talking
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: this morning. Let's talk loyalty programs. Eight six six nine
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: two seven forty three sixty one Toby and Chilly in
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: the Morning. In your opinion, what loyalalty programs would be
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: the best? They're totally worth it. You swear by them.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Even though you know that the company is collecting some
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: personal data on you to help them become a better
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: business for you.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: And here at ninety seven point one WASCHFM with Toby
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: and Chilly in the Morning. We wanted to take the
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: pulse of these loyalty programs, the ones that really do

  Speaker 2: talking to?
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: Good morning, This is mel Mel, thanks for listening to
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: us in Fairfax. So what dilemma are you having with
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: your boyfriend? So?
• 22:31
  Speaker 9: Okay, I go on this yearly vacation with my boyfriend
• 22:36
  Speaker 9: and his family, and because you know, they travel a lot,
• 22:40
  Speaker 9: they've racked up like a lot of miles, like a
• 22:42
  Speaker 9: lot of like airline miles, and they always, you know,
• 22:45
  Speaker 9: turn them in for vacation and they all get first.
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: Class ooh boogie.
• 22:52
  Speaker 9: Like including my boyfriend.
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: Okay, so what's the issue?
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: Then?
• 22:56
  Speaker 9: I don't have like all these airline miles. So I
• 22:59
  Speaker 9: end up coach like most of the time by myself.
• 23:02
  Speaker 9: And like, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to
• 23:04
  Speaker 9: be ungrateful. They pay for everything else, like when we're there,
• 23:07
  Speaker 9: like they hook us at you know, the hotel, the
• 23:09
  Speaker 9: dinners and all this nice stuff. But I just feel
• 23:12
  Speaker 9: so weird, and I'm like, do I say something? Do
• 23:16
  Speaker 9: I like ask my boyfriend to I don't know, maybe
• 23:19
  Speaker 9: come to coach with me or ask them to bump
• 23:21
  Speaker 9: me up with them. Like I'm just like, why is
• 23:23
  Speaker 9: this even a conversation? It feels so weird. I don't know,
• 23:27
  Speaker 9: I don't know what to do now.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: That is a slippery slope, you know, because you don't
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: want to look entitled. But then again, I think you
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: have a point. Why are you sitting back there all
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: by yourself? That's snowboino, So you think she should say
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: something to the boyfriend?
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, see if they're paying for everything else, Mel, who
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: cares if you're sitting by yourself during a flight, it's
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: just a few hours.
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: The rest of the trip is on their dime. Hello.
• 23:50
  Speaker 9: Yeah, Like I'm not a gold digger or something, but
• 23:52
  Speaker 9: it's like you're paying for this stuff, Like maybe just
• 23:54
  Speaker 9: do that too, or can someone take turns like being
• 23:57
  Speaker 9: with me and coach?
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: That's a fair It's clear you have some feelings, and
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I know some people that might have some opinions they
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: might want to share with you, And if you don't mind,
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: we'll bring them into the conversation at eight sixty six
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: ninety two, seven forty three sixty one and maybe we
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: can help you through this.
• 24:13

  Speaker 2: here's something that will make it sound even better as
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: you drive out.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: Our best of the eighties and nineties weekend. It all
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: kicks off Friday at five pm and goes all through
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: the weekend.
• 24:52

• 25:08
  Speaker 3: forty trillion dollars. We've got the latest on that story
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: and others on the way with Toby and Chilly in
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: the morning. A ninety seven point one wash FM.
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: Top Stories Top of the Hour.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: The Treasury Department says the national debt has now topped
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: forty trillion dollars, arriving sooner than analysts expected, partly because
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: the courts struck down some of the President's tariffs, cutting
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: into revenue that the government had counted on. One person
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: has died and another badly hurt after a possible house
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: explosion in Annapolis yesterday. Fire officials say a two story
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: home partially collapse, and investigators are now looking into whether
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: a pro pane delivery that was made just before that
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: blast played a role. Congressional Democrats are launching an investigation
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: into ice enforcement in northern Virginia after an agent pointed

• 26:32
  Speaker 3: to drive nearly nine and a half hours before deciding
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: to fly to their destination instead, although that cut off
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: swings by more than six hours depending on which state
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: you live in. Airfare delays in traveling with kids or
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: pets makes driving more appealing, while gas prices and traffic
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: push people toward the airport for flying. Forecast for today
• 26:57

• 27:14
  Speaker 2: few Why Mel hit us up a little bit ago.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: She does not like the idea of having to sit
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: in coach while her boyfriend and the family upgrade their
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: flights to first class. Now is she right on this,
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: wrong about her feelings on this? What should she do?
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: You've got thoughts and we'll get to hear them in
• 27:35

• 27:41
  Speaker 2: it's ninety seven point one watch FM and Mel had
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a problem with something.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: She lives in Fairfax and her boyfriend's family is paying
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: for this great trip and they do this every time,
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: treat her and the boyfriend. Problem is they upgrade their
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: seats using points to first class, while mal pays her
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: own way and sits in coach right.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: And the boyfriend, you would think, would you know, sacrifice
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: his seat in first to go be with his significant other,
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: But apparently that doesn't happen, and.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: She wants to know whether she should bring this up
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: to the boyfriend or is she crazy for thinking this
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: is an issue?
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: Alicia and for Washington thoughts.
• 28:21
  Speaker 10: That it's very telling, especially if they haven't been together
• 28:25
  Speaker 10: for years.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: This is a little foreshadowing.
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: You mean like they'll continue to exclude her from.
• 28:31
  Speaker 9: Some things, basically because if she's the only one they
• 28:35
  Speaker 9: everybody got upgraded except for her.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like.
• 28:39
  Speaker 9: They're trying to send a message as well.

  Speaker 2: in Stafford this morning.
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: You've got a different approach to all this.
• 28:54
  Speaker 10: My advice for her would be to when you get
• 28:57
  Speaker 10: to the kiosk to check in accidentally, this is their quote,
• 29:03
  Speaker 10: bump your ticket up to first class. It'll just charge
• 29:05
  Speaker 10: it to their card. Anyway, We're weare.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Will Well, that's very shady, but you should know she's
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: paying her own way, which is why she's sitting in
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: coach to begin with.
• 29:15
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and they just played dumb dude.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: You realize you're proposing theft by credit card. That's not okay?
• 29:20
  Speaker 10: We like Oh really, Oh I thought you guys got
• 29:23
  Speaker 10: me first class too. It's it's full proof.
