  Speaker 1: Pink, sober, something I'm not. 106.7 Light FM, Cubby and Christine,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: producer Kristen. I'm kidding. I'm actually sober. I did have
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: a beer last night. Okay. I had a Guinness. You
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: know where I went last night?
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Where?
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: For the first time in about 20 years, hula hands.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, hula hands.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. We were talking about hula hands off the air yesterday,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: but there are not many around, I feel.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: There's not. No.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: And Naomi, my six-year-old, has a German class in Holmdel,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: New Jersey. It's every Monday from 4.30 to 6.30. So
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: I had two hours to kill. So I got on
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: my phone. I said, places to eat near me. And
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: a hula hands popped up. I said, you know what?
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go. And can I tell you, as
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: I ate there, I was so depressed. Why? Because it
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: reminded me, I ate so often there when I was single. Yeah.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: It reminded me like when I was kind of in
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: my downtime.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: And were you feeling like you were single again? Because.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: You had no company.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: And I texted Kristen a picture of hula hands because
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: she's a hula hands fan. And she's like, and I
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: told her the same thing. Yeah. I'm enjoying it. I'm
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: kind of having a nostalgic feel right now. And I'm
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: also kind of sad because I ate so often here
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: by myself. And she said, but this time you have
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: a family to go home to. So you know what?
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: See, Kristen's good.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: I'll take another Guinness.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: She's a good therapist.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: And I was talking to the bartender. He said there's
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: only a few locations left. Brick, Holmdel, which is where
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: I was at, Paramus, Ramsey, and the one in Secaucus,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: which was apparently the most busiest one ever, is closed now. Oh.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: It closed?
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: He said during the snow last year, the roof collapsed
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and they never came around to fix it. Wow. And
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: they never had the budget or something, but that one
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: apparently is no longer operational.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: That used to be one of the ones I would
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: go to.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: That was a go-to. That was near you. Yeah.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Uh-huh.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: So anyway, hula hands, you brought back some memories. The
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: food was great. I don't mean to bring you down
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: because I was depressed, but yeah, it did bring back
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: because the decor was the same and the people that
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: were there, like.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: The- Like it's like walking back in time a little
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: for us.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a little bit. Well, we're walking into the future.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: As we prepare for fall. Yes. It's not officially fall.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Not till 8.05 tonight.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: But you, my friend, Kristi Nagy, have declared it by
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: what you're wearing.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: I am wearing official attire, my pumpkin spice season sweatshirt,
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: and my Uggs.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: There.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: It's fall.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: That's fall right there.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Boom. Don't even look at the calendar or the clock
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: ticking down on summer. It's now officially fall.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: It's done. And what did the hubby think of that outfit?
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Is it hubby approved?
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: No.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: No.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: It is not, Cubby. It's not. So, you know, like
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I always joke, I'm like a kid. I lay out
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: my clothes the night before because we get up so early.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I do the same.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: So I was kind of taking this out because now
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I'm looking for sweaters and that sort of thing. And
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I held it up for Eric and I said, oh,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: look at this. I should wear this tomorrow. And I
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: just saw his face like, oof. And I said, what, what? Anyway,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: and he knew he was like, he was caught. He's like, um.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I'm doing a face plant right now.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: He's going, should I say what I'm supposed to say
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: or do I have an opinion?
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Doesn't a partner know to keep his mouth shut? His mouth.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: That's what I would have done. But he doesn't have
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: poker face.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, so he really, he said it with his face.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Yes, it was his expression. I said, well, now that
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I've seen your expression, you might as well tell me.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: I don't like it. Well, why don't you like it?
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I just, I don't like it. I'm like, well,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: it's like, not like, serious, you know, it's like, it's
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: a fun, Hey, it's fall sweatshirt.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Would you be open to doing a picture and have
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: a social, you know, vote on it?
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, yeah. I don't know if I want to
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: leave myself open.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Because one negative comment will bring us down. Right. I'm
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: the same way.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Many on Eric's side.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: It's very cute. Again.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: It's just meant to be playful and light.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Pumpkin spices and sweatshirt.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: The Uggs. And Uggs. And like my coffee means fall.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: All you need is a good autumn song, which there
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: are not enough of.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: There's not.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I went online and one that popped up was by
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. Autumn in New York. Here
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: we go. This is for Eric, your future hubby, who's
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: a jazz guy. Yeah, he is. Well, not really. He's
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: a drummer, but he likes jazz.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: This is beautiful. But I can.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Hear him playing in the background. Why does it seem.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Do you know this song? Because I didn't remember it.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Of course. Sorry, it's a standard.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I do think, though, there are not enough songs about
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: fall and autumn. And if you want to make money,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: you put a song out about autumn and fall. Because
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: yesterday we played September, of course, by Earth, Wind & Fire.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's such a good one.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I did put this in there for you.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: This is Taylor Swift's Cardigan, which is... I love this.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: This is fall-like. If you have a good fall or
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: autumn song, hit us up at 44363.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Autumn Leaves by Nat King Cole, I know, is a
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: good one.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: And don't forget Taylor's adorable video when it's time for fall.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: I hope somebody posts it and I'll repost it.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Talking about the outfit and breaking out the leggings and
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: all that.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: She's like, and plaid and burgundy.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: She goes through the whole thing.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Fall is here, and it feels like it. Cloudy today, chilly,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: and a high of 64. It's Light FM.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: More Covey and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Next on Light FM.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I need to tell you two things.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Covey and Christine's.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Two pretty cool things. I feel weird doing a cool
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: thing about a disaster, but it has an interesting story
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: behind it. All right, the Hindenburg. Yeah. We all remember
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: the footage. Yes.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: 1937.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: It was destroyed in New Jersey when it was coming
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: in for a landing. The Hindenburg blimp.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: That's, oh, the humanity, right?
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: That one, yeah.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: That famous radio call. Amazingly, though, an unopened bottle of
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: beer survived the famous disaster. It's going up for auction
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: in England, and it's apparently going to sell for up
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: to $ 8, 000. Whoa. The bottle of Lowenbrau Lager is one
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: of only six known to survive the fire. What happened was, Christine,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: a local fire chief pulled the six-pack from the wreck,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: buried it to hide it from the police, later dug
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: it up to share with his team. The green bottle
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: still has its original fire damage label and liquid inside. Wow.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: And auction experts warn that while it's a rare piece
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: of history, the nearly 90-year-old beer is completely undrinkable.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Right. Right. But crazy out of that disaster of the Hindenburg, that,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: and again.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: That is crazy.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I remember seeing that footage young in history class.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: It didn't affect you deeply?
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Yes. It affected me. It's like, whoa, my God. It
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: was in Life Magazine. I remember that picture. Horrible. And
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: right in our backyard. But there you go with that beer.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: What do you have as a cool thing, Christine?
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: It's a little more lighthearted. Back to Starbucks. I know
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: we talk about Starbucks a lot, but- They have been
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: named by nutritionists, dieticians, as their favorite fast food chain
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: because you've got some options if you're running into Starbucks
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: and you need to get food on the go. Dietician-approved
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: orders include the unsweetened roll and steel oatmeal, egg bites, spints,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: feta and egg white wrap, egg and cheddar protein box,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: and fresh fruit. And they said when it comes to drinks,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: they suggested the unsweetened cold brew iced tea or a
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: sugar-free vanilla protein latte.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I used to get that protein box a lot. Remember
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: that Starbucks we had in our old building in Tribeca?
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: They always had that. I loved it. Yeah.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: And fruit.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: And fruit. Right, right. All right. Cool things right here
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: on Light FM.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Next on Light FM.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Time for Tech Talk on Light FM. It's Cubby, Christine,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: producer Kristen. We're talking about our phones off the air. Mm-hmm.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: iOS 27.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Doing the updates. Is it slowing your phone down? Because
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: it is for us, but that's supposedly short-lived, according to Apple.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm trying to pay attention to that. You told
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: me that, and I think I did notice the battery
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: might be trickling down quicker. But you said, like you
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: just said.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: After a few days, it should balance out. Otherwise, it's
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Apple saying, time for you to get a new phone.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: Right. But we have a couple of things that are problematic.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: What's really cool about iOS 27, and you have the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: first one, and then I have one too. Okay.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Well, I think this one could save the day because
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: there is an anniversary reminder on call for you.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Save a lot of guys' days.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, it would. So you go into your contacts app,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: you enter anniversary or any important dates, and then when
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: you go on a certain day to contact that person,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: it says, reminder, you and Coco are celebrating your anniversary today,
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: like that kind of thing.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, I hope to never forget.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: The longer you're married, time goes by faster. It creeps
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: up on you quicker. Yes.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sure you could do that with birthdays
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: and everything.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. So if you have the new iOS 27,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: there's a feature that's off by default right now, but
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: they're saying you should probably turn it on. It's really cool.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: It can help detect when you might be getting pulled
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: into a impersonation scam. Oh. So it's not guaranteed. Yeah.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: But again, it's off by default. If you're running iOS 27,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: you want to go to Settings. Privacy and security. And
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: then you'll notice impersonation risk detection. Wow. And it says
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: it's not going to magically stop every scam. But if
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: your phone can give a supported app another signal that
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: something looks suspicious before you make a payment or maybe
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: change important account information, it'll like warn you. And unfortunately,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: I have a lot of senior friends that and my dad, too.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: They've come darn close to getting scammed.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Because the impersonation phishing things or whatever.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, they're getting really good.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: They're getting better and better.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: So, again, if you have iOS 27, you go to Settings,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Privacy and Security, and then click Impersonation Risk Detection. That's
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: going to be off. But if you want to use it,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: you want to turn that on. And, again, it might
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: help with impersonation scams. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Really good. I think this one sounds excellent too. There's
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: a new feature that's called call context. So this tool
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: pulls up relevant information like flight details from email. So
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: while you're on a call, like say you're calling an
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: airline or trying to reach out, It knows what your
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: confirmation number is and it'll just pop up for you.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: You won't have to go search.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: That's really good.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Remember a few years ago when you needed a code
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: and you had to input that code on the app
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: and they would text you? Yes. Now that shows up automatically. Yes.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: So I love that.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: It knows. Yeah. Like I'm talking to United right now.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I need the number.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: I need that number now.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah. All right. Pretty cool. And you'll need your phone
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: to call us at seven twenty five. Journey tickets. Journey's
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: coming to town at Prudential Center in October. We have
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: your hookup coming up.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: Next on Light FM.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: All right. If you're a boss and you're in charge
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: of hiring people, how would this go over in your office?
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: It's 106.7 Light FM. Cubby, Christine, producer Kristen. Take it away, Christine.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: You're going to a job interview and you show up
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: with an iced latte in your hand. All casual. So
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: what does the person interviewing you think? There's a little
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: debate happening online where a job recruiter is saying, please
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: don't do this. Because it looks like your interview was
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: just like, hey, just stopping in between errands.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, thank you.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Like you said, really cash. And then it goes like towards,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: you know, age has a lot to do with it.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: The younger generations are saying, that's ridiculous. You don't judge
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: somebody over a cup of coffee.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: Well, I think we do. It's not the coffee. It's
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: how it's portrayed as you're walking in the office and
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: everything is being picked apart.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: That's the thing.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: How you're walking in, your confidence, what you have with you.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: I know you don't like thinking about that because it's unnerving,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: but it really is what's happening. Yeah, that's what the
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: recruiter is saying. And, you know, people who have had
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: more of this life experience are saying exactly that, Covey.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: It's the optics. It's not... okay, I have coffee. It's
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: the appearance that you're giving, that you're just not really
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: taking this seriously. And they said, you come in and
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: a lot of times, like it can distract you because
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: you're like shaking the ice, you're doing things. It just
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: can pull focus.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: And you don't want to do that.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: But I wonder if any research has been done on
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: what if you are going in for a job interview
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: and you have a cup of coffee and you brought
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: another cup of coffee for the person interviewing you. That
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: might go over well, right?
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Wonder.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Hey, I hope you like, you know, black coffee or
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: a nice latte. And then you hand it in front
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: of him or her and then you can sip on yours.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: This is this is hard because when I was doing
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of auditioning, like sometimes actors would do that.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: They would bring treats for casting people. Yeah. But then
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: the casting people were like, no. They didn't like it
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: a lot of times because they thought... It is schmoozing. Yeah.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: So I don't know. I think it's tough. I think
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: maybe just go in there without coffee for yourself or
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: the person.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I think.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Just do the best you can do.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: But maybe we're wrong.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: And get coffee on the way home.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Right. I think that's the best. But your opinion, please. 44363.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Especially if you're a person, like I said, that maybe
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: hires people on the regular basis.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: You can tell us.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Tell us what you would do if somebody came in
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: for an interview with a cup of coffee and just
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: acted very cash 44363 more cubby.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: And christine and the great music variety you expect next
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: on light.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Fm all right 658 tuesday morning christine has everything you
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: need to know good morning christine.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Good morning cubby the airport's getting back up to speed
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: this morning because we had an hours-long ground stoppage yesterday
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: some issues the faa said everybody's got to stop this
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: was between Philadelphia and Newark Airport specifically affecting JFK and
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: LaGuardia as well. It is car-free day on Long Island.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying, I wish you the best.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Well, you'll get there quicker if you can walk, probably.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: That might be.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Compared to all the traffic that's usually happening. Exactly.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: And it's probably a good day for that because UN
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: General Assembly underway and we've got gridlock conditions in town.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, we come in here Five in the morning
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: and streets were already closed off.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: Did you see him towing trucks or trucks were towing cars?
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Oh, no, I did not.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: That were like illegally parked. They weren't playing around. They
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: were towing everybody, especially up Sixth Avenue. OK. Yeah.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: So, yes, heed the warnings. Definitely use mass transit today.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: President Trump will speak at the General Assembly this morning.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: And he'll also be meeting with Gulf leaders whose nations
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: have faced the impact as the war with Iran continues. Also,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: the White House launching what it calls Trump TV. 24-7
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: streaming channel on YouTube, updated in real time. The White House,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: right now, the press pool is no longer covering President
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Trump's events after he barred some outlets from the White House.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: In sports, the Giants lost to the Rams 28-6. Did
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: we also lose Jackson Dart?
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: We did.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I know he was injured early on in the game.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But the good news is it's not a season-ending injury.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: It looks like a high ankle sprain, I believe. He'll
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: be out for a few weeks, but that'll be determined later.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: But a lot of people, a lot of Giant fans
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: were like holding their breath.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Okay. And this is great news if you're waking up
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: right about now. According to, well, Mother Nature and scientists,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: People who are waking up by 6.58 a.m.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: 6.58.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: That's what we landed on.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Two minutes ago.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Do better in the workplace and have a lower chance
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: of being depressed, stressed, or overweight. Morning people tend to
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: be healthier, happier, as well as thinner. So, yay. Good morning.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Applause to you. Congratulations for waking up.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Light FM. It's kind of hard to wake up on
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: a day like today, though. Cloudy. Dark. Yeah. Chilly. Fall
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: begins at 8 o'clock tonight. 8 o'clock-ish.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: 8.04. 8.04. 8.05. Somewhere in there, yeah.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: We'll be counting down.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Next on Light FM.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Variety from the 80s through today. 106.7 Light FM. Good morning.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: I'm Cubby. That's Christine. That's producer Kristen. And that's you listening.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much. I don't know if I'll ever
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: be able to pick up my son Miles again from daycare.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Why? What's going on?
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: I am really embarrassed. I just want to put my
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: head in the sand.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: So remember I mentioned at the beginning of the show
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: that every Monday Naomi has German class? So I take
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: her to Holmdel, New Jersey. It's quite a hike. Okay.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: But I'm with her from 4.30 to 6.30 every Monday. Yeah.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: That's until like May. In case you're wondering, I'll be
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: at Houlihan's in Holmdel. Very nice. Killing time every Monday.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: I'll just take the class with her.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: I should.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you should learn some German while you're there.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: That's actually a great idea. So I usually pick up
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Miles from daycare, which is much closer to home. Well,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: I didn't pick him up yesterday. In fact, it's been
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: a while since I haven't picked him up. Mommy picked
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Miles up yesterday.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: And mommy sent me this video as I was in
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Houlihan's Killing Time waiting for Naomi to finish German class.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Now, if you can't make out what my son says,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I will kind of recap it for you after it plays. Okay.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: But this is the video my wife Coco sent me.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: They're driving home from daycare after she picked him up
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: for the first time in a long time. Miles, what'd
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: you just say?
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Good thing mommy picks me up because every time daddy
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: picks me up, then my kids laugh because daddy doesn't.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Have any hair. So every time daddy picks him up,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: the kids laugh because I have no hair. And I
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: have noticed them giggling.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: You did?
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: And I thought maybe I was just the fun dad
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: picking up. Because I'll be like, Miles, what's up? And
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: then he'll run to me and then maybe he'll make
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: a goofy face. So I'm thinking they're laughing maybe at
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: everything going on with the pickup. But little do I know.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I'm the butt of all the jokes with the four-year-olds. Daddy,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: the dad with the bald head.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Are you okay? Did this hurt your feelings?
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I'm going to start wearing hats. I went to the
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: closet this morning before I left work looking for all
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: the extra hats I have around because that hurts. I'm sorry.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: There's no other dads that are bald. There has to be.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's just my whole physique between the bald and
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I got the little beer gut. I don't know what
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: it is, but... I thought it was extremely cute. That
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: is adorable. My wife Coco said, yeah, the four-year-olds have
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: had you tricked because you didn't know until yesterday. So
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: all along, it's been this joke for months.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: They were laughing at you.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Because she takes them to school every day.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: But I pick them up usually every day. And this
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: is the first time she's picked up Miles from daycare.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: So anyway.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: You thought they were laughing with you.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: They're laughing at me.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Are you okay? Wow, this could trigger some, like, way
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: back insecurities or something.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: You think? You think? That show, Kids Say the Darnest Things?
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know where that show is, but
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: it's apparent why that show is popular. Right, right. Because
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: kids really do say the.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Darndest things, and I love it. Miles is just being honest,
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: but are you going to pick him up today?
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Hell no. No, I'll be there, but with a hat on.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: Love you, Miles.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 19:21

• 20:25
  Speaker 1: apples called? Were they A, winter tomatoes, B, winter bananas,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: or C, winter plums?
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say winter plums.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Winter plums is a good guess, but it's incorrect. The
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: answer is winter bananas.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Where did they come up with that? Okay. Okay, Jason,
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: here we go. Jason, what was fall originally called? Was

• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Yes, that's correct.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: All right, so it's 1-0, Jason. Kim, which of these
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: is the natural color of leaves? A, yellow, B, green,
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: or C, brown? I'm going to say yellow. Yellow is correct.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Not good if it's snow, but if it's leaves, it's okay.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: One to one. Okay.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: Jason, who was the first group of people in history
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: to use scarecrows? A, ancient Egyptians, B, ancient Greeks, C,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: early Japanese farmers.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say C.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: Nope. I'm sorry. It wasn't the Japanese farmer. It was
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: actually the ancient Egyptians.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: But we have a great game going on. We're tied
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: up 1-1. Kim, here's your third and final question. What
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: fall month will you see a full corn moon? A, September, B, October,

• 21:59
  Speaker 1: it's September. It's this month.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Jason, you can take it if you guess this one.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Which U.S. state has named apple cider their official state drink?

• 22:23
  Speaker 2: New Hampshire.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Three seconds. I'm going to say Vermont. Nope.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it's New Hampshire, which brings us to a tie.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: All right, well, Kristen, write down a number between 1
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: and 250. Our fine producer, Kristen, is writing down a
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: number between 1 and 250. And whoever's closest will win
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: the game, okay? Kim, what do you think she wrote down? 118.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: And Jason? I'm going to say 23. Oh, my gosh. Kristen, control.

  Speaker 2: Yeah, you win.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Kim, thank you for playing. You have won before. That's

  Speaker 1: We are family, I feel. And Kristen and I were
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: having a sidebar about how life is moving so fast
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: and the kids are growing up quick and We were just,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: and then you chimed in, Christine. We were just talking
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: about how, I think we mentioned this yesterday, how time
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: just gets quicker and quicker and quicker.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: It does.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: And I said, you know what? Before time gets away
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: from us, let's schedule a meetup. Pull out your iPhone
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: right now. We all pulled out our iPhones a moment ago,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: and we have made plans to have a meetup on
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: June 23rd, 2040 at noon.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: And it's in the calendar.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: 2040. So when you first said, let's plan a meetup,
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: I thought you were like, hey, in a couple of weeks,
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: why don't we catch up and just have breakfast? Nope. No.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: 2040. Well, how about the date I originally proposed?
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Oh, June 21st?
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: I said June 21st, 2040. What did you say?
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: No, that's a Thursday. That won't work for me.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: That's a Thursday. Yeah.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: Like, why are you picking a Thursday?
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: So I'm thinking 2040. Like, my Naomi will be 20.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Miles will be 18. Wow. Kristen's two kids, Jagger, will
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: be 19. And Bowie will be 17. Wow. So we
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: got to get this in the books. I don't know. Look,
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: maybe we'll be working together still. I hope so.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: I hope so.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: But how funny is it going to be in 14 years?
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: When we get that reminder in our calendar?
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: You're going to be like, when did I put this in?
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: But you did it, right?
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: I did it.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: I'm wondering how we're getting there. Is it like at
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: that point, is it flying cars? Is it Waymo? That's
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: a great point.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: How are we arriving? 14 years ago from this year
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: was 2012. And that seems like last week. Yeah. So
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: in 2012, if you told me, what do you think
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: 2026 will be like? I would have said flying cars.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: But nothing around quite yet. Yeah. We've got drones.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: They're coming.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: They may be in 2040.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: And where should we go? That's the only thing I
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: don't have in the calendar.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: Well, you just mentioned hula hands.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a new go-to spot. I thought Houlihan's
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: were kind of closed forever.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: But I found one in Holmdel, New Jersey. So I
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: went last night and it felt like 2006 to me.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Okay. So for that retro feeling, we're going to want
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: to feel 2026.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: What feels very 2026?
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: What would be something that people are talking about right
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: now that will be probably done in 2040?
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Everything is like so Instagram moment quick now.
• 25:59
