- 0:38Speaker 1: How old is your cat going to be?
- 0:40Speaker 2: Thank you Covey, He's going to be six.
- 0:43Speaker 1: I'm giggling because you have a whole party play. I mean,
- 0:46Speaker 1: you have streamers in the house already. When you walk
- 0:48Speaker 1: in the door, the furly little you know, Yeah, what
- 0:51Speaker 1: do you call those things? Tensil all over the place?
- 0:54Speaker 2: Oh, he'll eat that, that's right, Yes, to make sure
- 0:57Speaker 2: that that's set high. Yes, so I asked him what
- 1:00Speaker 2: restaurant he wanted to go to first birthday? No response, Well,
- 1:04Speaker 2: so it will celebrate at home.
- 1:05Speaker 1: It'll be very busy on Mother's Day. You're right, you
- 1:07Speaker 1: know better to stay at home.
- 1:09Speaker 2: I don't know why Archie's birthday is taking a backseat
- 1:11Speaker 2: to Mother's Day, But okay, can.
- 1:13Speaker 1: I tell you a fond memory I have of Archie?
- 1:16Speaker 1: Of course, it was, of course a rough time. The
- 1:18Speaker 1: pandemic had just began. It was probably May of twenty twenty.
- 1:23Speaker 1: We were three months in, two months into the pandemic.
- 1:25Speaker 2: I adopted him, by the way, in August of what
- 1:27Speaker 2: of twenty twenty? Oh, he's a pandemic baby.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Oh so he was born around this time.
- 1:32Speaker 2: Yes, remember when it was like impossible to get a
- 1:35Speaker 2: puppy you or a kitten.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Because people were going to be at home. Yeah, okay,
- 1:39Speaker 1: so then then maybe it was probably late twenty twenty. Yeah,
- 1:42Speaker 1: when you got Archie and we were doing our show
- 1:45Speaker 1: from home, and of course I was on FaceTime. You
- 1:47Speaker 1: were on FaceTime, and occasionally you would leave to go
- 1:51Speaker 1: to the kitchen to get some coffee, maybe go to
- 1:53Speaker 1: the bathroom, whatever, But you were gone from your posts,
- 1:56Speaker 1: right and Archie would jump up on the desk and
- 1:59Speaker 1: just show us. But I mean like like like almost
- 2:02Speaker 1: like he knew he was messing with me. Yeah, and
- 2:06Speaker 1: there you go, there's a cat butt right on face.
- 2:09Speaker 2: Sorry for those close ups, but you did save some
- 2:11Speaker 2: video that's adorable of when he would look into the
- 2:14Speaker 2: camera and you just see this big green eye looks
- 2:16Speaker 2: like a space alien. I it's so big.
- 2:19Speaker 1: There were times I would talk to him he would
- 2:21Speaker 1: look around, Yeah, like do traffic for me?
- 2:23Speaker 2: Yeah, he would look like, oh okay at the mic.
- 2:26Speaker 2: Do you remember he knocks me off the air a
- 2:27Speaker 2: few times. That's right, he'd step on the mic and
- 2:32Speaker 2: hit a button. Yeah, you're on mute.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Remember times we said that.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Yes, he knocks me off the air. He put me
- 2:37Speaker 2: on the air when we shouldn't have been. Oh my gosh,
- 2:40Speaker 2: I'm very active little guy.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Well, enjoy your weekend with Archie.
- 2:42Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Hey, anybody listening right now, if you're looking for something
- 2:45Speaker 1: to do tomorrow, this is very cool. You know. I've
- 2:47Speaker 1: been going to Alliance Orthopedics. I go to the one
- 2:50Speaker 1: in East Brunswick, New Jersey, but they have spots all

- 4:13Speaker 1: And a pretty cool story involving our company iHeartRadio. Check
- 4:17Speaker 1: this out. We've kind of merged with map Quest, so
- 4:21Speaker 1: map quest is still alive and well. Okay, some people
- 4:23Speaker 1: might have forgotten about map Quest. MapQuest trusted navigation platform
- 4:27Speaker 1: used by tens of millions of people still each month,
- 4:30Speaker 1: and iHeartRadio announced a new partnership that brings live iHeartRadio
- 4:34Speaker 1: streaming directly to MapQuest dot Com, making it the first
- 4:38Speaker 1: ever audio integration in the platform's history. The integration allows
- 4:42Speaker 1: map quest users to listen to live iHeartRadio stations while navigating.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Users on map quest dot com will now see a
- 4:50Speaker 1: live radio button in the top right corner of the map. Okay,
- 4:54Speaker 1: and it will seamlessly pair into real time directions and
- 4:57Speaker 1: you can listen to light FM.
- 4:59Speaker 2: And now you'll get your direction.
- 5:01Speaker 1: We have to bounce around or even like that. Map
- 5:03Speaker 1: quest dot Com hit the live radio button and fine
- 5:07Speaker 1: lighte FM and it makes it one stop shopping.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Very nice.
- 5:09Speaker 1: I thought that was really really cool. What is your

- 6:29Speaker 1: Six forty light fmcuvey and Christine in the morning. Producer
- 6:32Speaker 1: Christen hanging out with us, and I said, six point
- 6:34Speaker 1: forty it's early in the morning. A good time to
- 6:37Speaker 1: make a decision, a big decision, Christine, decide what you're
- 6:41Speaker 1: going to paint the inside of your house, because don't
- 6:43Speaker 1: you have an article? First of all, you have two
- 6:45Speaker 1: things going on. Yes, you have an article about the
- 6:47Speaker 1: best time to make a big decision. Yes, And then yeah,
- 6:50Speaker 1: you have to make a big decision involving your home. Right.
- 6:52Speaker 2: So you know, I've been working with Serti Pro Painters
- 6:55Speaker 2: and they've been so wonderful and patient with me, and
- 6:58Speaker 2: we have a lot that we need done, and we
- 7:02Speaker 2: were just going to do the one room, the guest room,
- 7:04Speaker 2: but they're so good, Kubby, I'm gonna I contracted them
- 7:07Speaker 2: to do the whole house. Okay, the whole interior of
- 7:09Speaker 2: the house, which is wonderful, But now dun't dun'tu, I
- 7:12Speaker 2: have to choose a paint color.
- 7:14Speaker 1: And you're not you know, you're not of the ordinary here.
- 7:17Speaker 1: I mean everybody has a struggle.
- 7:19Speaker 2: The struggle is real. Who knew?
- 7:22Speaker 1: And the article that we're reading it says, don't make
- 7:24Speaker 1: big decisions late at night, like right before bed.
- 7:27Speaker 2: Your brain's tired.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Your brain's tired.
- 7:29Speaker 2: You're legit, you're done, So.
- 7:30Speaker 1: Pick the color right now, Chris, I can I tell you? Yeah.
- 7:34Speaker 2: So this is a study out of Pepperdine University. Cognitive
- 7:37Speaker 2: energy is not infinite. It is it is burning off
- 7:44Speaker 2: like throughout the day. So, uh, they're saying that when
- 7:47Speaker 2: you get up in the morning, that's when your brain
- 7:50Speaker 2: is like, okay, let's go. I'm sure after the coffee
- 7:52Speaker 2: and everything, but if you've been weighing a huge decision,
- 7:55Speaker 2: like for me, this is a big decision and it's
- 7:57Speaker 2: taking up a lot of brain space. And I really
- 7:59Speaker 2: feel like I have I don't know, decision fatigue if
- 8:03Speaker 2: that exists, because when I say the whole house, that
- 8:06Speaker 2: means you know, bedrooms and bathrooms and the main color
- 8:10Speaker 2: going throughout the house, and I keep changing my mind anyway,
- 8:15Speaker 2: we speak seriously working myself up, sort of pro come help,
- 8:19Speaker 2: and they are. But they' is telling you, first of all,
- 8:21Speaker 2: narrow down your choices. Keep cutting down the options. Human
- 8:25Speaker 2: mind can't comprehend more than three to five options at
- 8:27Speaker 2: a time. There is my problem right there. Consider your values.
- 8:31Speaker 2: Focus on the ideals you want to live up to,
- 8:33Speaker 2: and which one aligns most with your values. So this
- 8:36Speaker 2: is big decisions in life. Okay, save creative work for
- 8:40Speaker 2: the evening. It's when people edit themselves a little less
- 8:43Speaker 2: and feel more care free. That's interesting. And walk away
- 8:47Speaker 2: for a while. If you're struggling to make the call,
- 8:49Speaker 2: take a break, get perspective, if you can sleep on it,
- 8:54Speaker 2: and try again in the morning. So we're not just
- 8:56Speaker 2: talking about my paint color here. We're talking about you
- 8:59Speaker 2: and making decisions in life.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Yeah, but right now, your current big decision is the
- 9:03Speaker 1: color of the inside of that house that you are
- 9:06Speaker 1: going to be staring at for years.
- 9:07Speaker 2: You know, I have talked about this on air before.
- 9:10Speaker 2: Andy's like, just pick what you like, and it's like, oh,
- 9:12Speaker 2: you think it's that easy. I I walked into the
- 9:16Speaker 2: store thinking I would do that. I walked out, I
- 9:20Speaker 2: got coffee. I went back in because I said, this
- 9:22Speaker 2: is this is going to take a while. Then I
- 9:24Speaker 2: came home with some samples. There's now peel and stick samples,
- 9:27Speaker 2: which are great. You don't always have to get the
- 9:29Speaker 2: paint samples and you can move them around. And then
- 9:31Speaker 2: I've gone back like three times. Covey, it's I must stop.
- 9:37Speaker 1: Can I pile on here?
- 9:38Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 9:38Speaker 1: Another thing you worry about too, which I actually do too.
- 9:40Speaker 1: My wife does too when it comes to paint. Yeah,
- 9:44Speaker 1: you think about the different times of day and how
- 9:46Speaker 1: the sun can change the way certain paint samples look.
- 9:49Speaker 1: So then that can hamper your decision even more. Absolutely,
- 9:52Speaker 1: I love this color at ten am, right, oh it's
- 9:54Speaker 1: dark now it's eight o'clock.
- 9:55Speaker 2: Oh no, yeah, and again like sort of pro like
- 9:58Speaker 2: they'll guide you, but like, yeah, is your room facing east, west,
- 10:01Speaker 2: north south? Like all of that makes a difference in
- 10:03Speaker 2: the color you choose. And I'm sorry I took a
- 10:06Speaker 2: lot of flak last time, but I do want to
- 10:07Speaker 2: know what the trends are because just thinking forward, at
- 10:11Speaker 2: some point if you resell what like what's going to
- 10:14Speaker 2: hold the value better? You know? Like I keep reading
- 10:17Speaker 2: that gray is done and Greece and beaijor In. So
- 10:21Speaker 2: should I be going that direction?
- 10:22Speaker 1: And uh talk about over things nuts.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I do.
- 10:25Speaker 1: You're not alone? And prove to Christine she's not alone.
- 10:28Speaker 1: Text us at four four three six three. Make that
- 10:30Speaker 1: decision right now and text us at four four three
- 10:33Speaker 1: six three.
- 10:34Speaker 3: More Covey and Christine and the great music variety you
- 10:37Speaker 3: expect next on Light at Them.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Do you believe in UFOs? Covey, Christine Kristen hanging out
- 10:43Speaker 1: talking about that right now here online FM six fifty three.
- 10:46Speaker 2: In the news a lot lately too. I having a
- 10:48Speaker 2: little news story coming up about it.
- 10:50Speaker 1: Really. Yeah, Well, what's the one you have right now?
- 10:53Speaker 2: Well, if you're into UFOs, you're in a good spot.
- 10:56Speaker 1: With New York City or just New York City, New.
- 10:59Speaker 2: York City in particular, the cities where you're most likely
- 11:03Speaker 2: to see a UFO. Phoenix tops the list. New York
- 11:07Speaker 2: City is number two.
- 11:09Speaker 1: Which is surprising. Phoenix makes sense, and I know it's
- 11:11Speaker 1: a big city, but the desert, the desert more sorry skies.
- 11:15Speaker 2: Yes, you would think.
- 11:16Speaker 1: We have a light light pollution here in the Tristate area, but.
- 11:19Speaker 2: We're seeing them. This is according to even though we've
- 11:22Speaker 2: got the light pollution. According to the sightings to the
- 11:25Speaker 2: National UFO Reporting Center going back to twenty fifteen, the
- 11:29Speaker 2: city seeing the most UFOs they tend to peak around
- 11:32Speaker 2: nine pm and in November is your best time for
- 11:35Speaker 2: sightings apparently Phoenix, Arizona number one, followed by New York,
- 11:40Speaker 2: Las Vegas.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Desert, Portland, West Coast.
- 11:45Speaker 2: La Boise, Idaho, Albuquerque, Chicago, Seattle, and then Denver. Wow.
- 11:52Speaker 1: So it's almost like they threw in New York as
- 11:54Speaker 1: a favor, like, well thew New York number two.
- 11:57Speaker 2: Well, apparently we've called in a lot of sightings.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Now, what do you think of UFO is because a
- 12:02Speaker 1: UFO does not necessarily mean alien spacecraft unidentified. It merely
- 12:06Speaker 1: indicates that the object, the origin is unknown. Right, So,
- 12:10Speaker 1: but do you think they're aliens flying around or do
- 12:13Speaker 1: you think what what the heck is it? You know
- 12:16Speaker 1: about like the drone thing that happened was a year
- 12:18Speaker 1: never explained, right, Yeah, they kind of try to explain it,
- 12:22Speaker 1: but I feel like they never give me, they never
- 12:24Speaker 1: give me a good answer on that.
- 12:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I still I think I still see them the drones.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Yeah, when I'm driving in when I leave East Brunswick,
- 12:31Speaker 1: when it's still really dark before I get to the city.
- 12:34Speaker 1: I'm serious because I think like that, that's definitely not
- 12:37Speaker 1: a plane, and it's you what the drone? What?
- 12:41Speaker 2: I'm a radio DJ. I'm just trying to do a show.
- 12:45Speaker 1: At four am. I'm driving to work.
- 12:47Speaker 2: I swear it's not a plane the radio show. I promise,
- 12:50Speaker 2: I know. I of course, look at the Cosmos. How
- 12:54Speaker 2: can we explain all of that? It's so big and
- 12:56Speaker 2: huge and fast, but are beyond our comprehension.
- 12:59Speaker 1: But why do they come around only at night because
- 13:00Speaker 1: we can only see them at night?
- 13:02Speaker 2: Wasn't there something? There's some video going around on Instagram
- 13:06Speaker 2: or whatever that something was just cited in New Jersey
- 13:08Speaker 2: and they were like middle of the day and there were.
- 13:11Speaker 1: I want more of that to believe it.
- 13:12Speaker 2: There were like a few different videos. So and I
- 13:15Speaker 2: don't know what's AI anymore and what's not, but like
- 13:17Speaker 2: this just happened in North Jersey, right, I don't know, Kvey,
- 13:21Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 13:21Speaker 1: Well, give us your thoughts on UFOs. Have you seen one?
- 13:24Speaker 1: I love to know? Four four three six three? And
- 13:26Speaker 1: why is every video grainy? Whenever they have like a video.
- 13:30Speaker 1: It's like the Locknest Monster. Yeah, like or Bigfoot. Every
- 13:32Speaker 1: picture there's like one or two pictures. They're always grainy. Right,
- 13:35Speaker 1: gave me a clear picture of something landing at MetLife Stadium, believer?
- 13:40Speaker 2: Besides the World Cup?
- 13:41Speaker 1: Yes? Or do you have coming up in the news.
- 13:43Speaker 2: We're gonna check out those headlines and why being an
- 13:46Speaker 2: enthusiastic employee could backfire.
- 13:49Speaker 3: More Covey and Christine and the great music variety you
- 13:52Speaker 3: expect next on Light at.
- 13:54Speaker 1: Them seven oh two. Christine has your news.
- 13:56Speaker 2: Good morning Christine, Good morning, Kubby. I'm only going to
- 13:59Speaker 2: mention this because we were us talking UFO sidings. Trump
- 14:02Speaker 2: administration is set to start releasing the so called UFO
- 14:06Speaker 2: files starting to day. This is we're just learning of
- 14:10Speaker 2: this release during a meeting at the White House late yesterday. Answer,
- 14:14Speaker 2: then maybe I'm who knows or in more questions, President
- 14:18Speaker 2: Trump says the ceasefire with the Run is still active
- 14:20Speaker 2: after the two countries traded fire on Thursday. New Jersey
- 14:25Speaker 2: Transit train tickets to and from MetLife Stadium for the
- 14:29Speaker 2: eight World Cup matches go on sale next Wednesday. So
- 14:32Speaker 2: coming up, and we were going to have one hundred
- 14:35Speaker 2: and fifty dollars round fair, you know round trip fairs.
- 14:38Speaker 2: It's down to one oh five, which.
- 14:40Speaker 1: Is still like a five increase. Yeah, the normal price.
- 14:43Speaker 2: New Jersey Transit president and CEO says that's thanks to
- 14:47Speaker 2: private sponsors the New Jersey Transits that they couldn't bring
- 14:50Speaker 2: it down. Yeah, normally it's twelve ninety to go from
- 14:52Speaker 2: the Meadowlands to Penn Station. You have to the canvas
- 14:59Speaker 2: learning managements. I'm used by thousands of students and universities,
- 15:02Speaker 2: including Rutgers Princeton, Columbia. They've been hit by a cyber
- 15:05Speaker 2: attack and they say they're working hard on taking care
- 15:08Speaker 2: of that. In sports, baseball, Yankees beat the Rangers nine two,
- 15:13Speaker 2: Mets lost to the Rocky six to two. Basketball Nick's
- 15:16Speaker 2: play the seventy six Ers Game three tonight at seven
- 15:18Speaker 2: in Philadelphia. And I know you want to be positive
- 15:22Speaker 2: and up and enthusiastic about work, but according to experts,
- 15:26Speaker 2: take it easy. Being an employee who always shows enthusiasm
- 15:30Speaker 2: at work might seem the best way to succeed, but
- 15:33Speaker 2: new research shows it could backfire because when supervisors were
- 15:36Speaker 2: asked who'd they to sign extra work to, they're like, hmm,
- 15:39Speaker 2: I'd go with that cheery person right there, the office cheerleader,
- 15:43Speaker 2: because he or she acts so happy to be there
- 15:47Speaker 2: and do more.
- 15:48Speaker 1: We better be careful then, because we show our happiness
- 15:51Speaker 1: a lot.
- 15:52Speaker 2: Wipe that smile off your face.
- 15:54Speaker 1: Just walk around the sad.
- 15:57Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah more Covey and Grissine and the great.
- 16:00Speaker 3: He's a variety you expect. Next on light at.
- 16:02Speaker 2: Them when a six point seven light FM, good morning,
- 16:05Speaker 2: It's Covey Christine, producer Kristen and Covey. It is Mother's
- 16:09Speaker 2: Day weekend, and we take a moment for all the
- 16:12Speaker 2: incredible work that moms are doing.
- 16:15Speaker 1: I bowed down to you. Mom's oh my producer Kristen yeap,
- 16:18Speaker 1: my wife, every mom out there, I worship you.
- 16:21Speaker 2: I stand in awe of you. I do tell a
- 16:24Speaker 2: Flora did a little survey what do moms most want
- 16:27Speaker 2: to hear? And they say, it's a really simple message.
- 16:30Speaker 2: You're doing great. That's it. You're doing great. You're doing great, moms,
- 16:35Speaker 2: I promise, because they're saying that moms are experiencing mom guilt.
- 16:39Speaker 2: Ninety one percent of women surveyed so they suffer from
- 16:42Speaker 2: mom guilt ninety one percent.
- 16:44Speaker 1: They're putting too much pressure on themselves.
- 16:46Speaker 2: Well, and there is all that pressure they're feeling it. Yeah,
- 16:49Speaker 2: they feel like they're not doing enough as a mom
- 16:54Speaker 2: and just need some reassurance and of course some support
- 16:56Speaker 2: and being hit really really hard right now. Mom's millennial moms, right,
- 17:02Speaker 2: they're parenting experts. They say the pressure is just unbelievable
- 17:06Speaker 2: right now, because they're also looking at social media where
- 17:10Speaker 2: people are kind of making it look easy.
- 17:12Speaker 1: I can really mess with your head, you know.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Yeah, it sets up these different expectations. And in response,
- 17:17Speaker 2: Teleflora it's launching a campaign reminding moms that love matters
- 17:21Speaker 2: more than perfection.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, I mean that's that's kind of deep.
- 17:25Speaker 2: It is really deep and true, such an important message
- 17:28Speaker 2: because yeah, your moms are everything, They're doing everything.
- 17:33Speaker 1: And that's what makes a good mom too. Because I'm
- 17:35Speaker 1: not saying you have to worry if you're a mom,
- 17:37Speaker 1: but if you are worrying all the time, that's because
- 17:40Speaker 1: you're just fueled to be even better and better and better. Yeah,
- 17:44Speaker 1: and unfortunately that also comes with pressure on yourself, right,
- 17:48Speaker 1: but you're not sitting there with your feet up.
- 17:50Speaker 2: Oh no, no, I know. Also, like reading about the
- 17:53Speaker 2: lack of sleep moms are going through. And it's not
- 17:55Speaker 2: just because of the hours, so to speak. It's also
- 17:58Speaker 2: because of that anxiety, right, and the racing thoughts. Am
- 18:00Speaker 2: I doing enough? There's more to do?
- 18:02Speaker 1: Like, no, one day, it's not enough to celebrate moms.
- 18:05Speaker 1: I will say that. Yeah, Sunday's Mother's Day. We're gonna
- 18:08Speaker 1: acknowledge you, moms, but you every day. Really we should
- 18:12Speaker 1: stops as a partner, stop think about how amazing you
- 18:17Speaker 1: are and how you're keeping our house afloat. About you,
- 18:22Speaker 1: we'd be imploding and I'd be in a ditch. It's
- 18:25Speaker 1: not just about the kids, it's about me too. Yeah,
- 18:27Speaker 1: all right, We're coming right back. More variety from the
- 18:29Speaker 1: eighties through today and a trivia battle. You know, we're
- 18:32Speaker 1: celebrating moms, of course, but we're also celebrating teachers all
- 18:35Speaker 1: this week, uh huh, Teacher Appreciation Week, and we'll have
- 18:39Speaker 1: two teachers from my daughter's school, Naomi. Yeah, they're gonna

- 20:10Speaker 1: And what do moms want? I mean, I feel like
- 20:12Speaker 1: this never changes, but what do moms really want this
- 20:15Speaker 1: Mother's Day?
- 20:16Speaker 2: This is coming up as a theme cubby on Reddit
- 20:18Speaker 2: where we have direct quotes from moms, and it really
- 20:21Speaker 2: is some time alone and a clean house, those two things,
- 20:25Speaker 2: and they're not the ones cleaning the house. When mom
- 20:28Speaker 2: said a day alone a whole day. I sleep in,
- 20:31Speaker 2: I shower as long as I want, I nap, I
- 20:33Speaker 2: drink my tea and coffee hot, I go to the
- 20:36Speaker 2: bathroom uninterrupted. That was another mom who said I would
- 20:40Speaker 2: love to be able to make a trip to the bathroom.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Producer Kristen also reinforces that there she cannot go to
- 20:46Speaker 1: the bathroom without her little bowie h freaking out, you know,
- 20:50Speaker 1: so because you can't, like Miles does that with me too.
- 20:53Speaker 1: My son, he's gotten a little bit better. But if
- 20:56Speaker 1: I go to the bathroom, he comes with me. And
- 20:58Speaker 1: a lot of people say, we'll just shut the door. No,
- 21:00Speaker 1: they bang and then they cry and make them upset.
- 21:03Speaker 1: So in they go and they go.
- 21:05Speaker 2: But you guys want a little privacy every now and then.
- 21:08Speaker 2: And just a moment. One mom said, give me a
- 21:10Speaker 2: night in a hotel, just to sleep. And when I
- 21:12Speaker 2: come home, the house is clean, not by me, And
- 21:16Speaker 2: another said, a professional light cleaner coming in and doing
- 21:19Speaker 2: the whole house. So again, clean clean, clean time alone
- 21:23Speaker 2: and some bathroom time alone. Doesn't seem like they're asking
- 21:25Speaker 2: for too much.
- 21:26Speaker 1: Right, No flowers, vacations, yeah, just some meat time.
- 21:30Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:31Speaker 1: And it's going to be a beautiful day on Sunday.
- 21:33Speaker 1: We got some rain tomorrow, but sunshine on Sunday for
- 21:36Speaker 1: all your Mother's Day outings. And we're coming right back
- 21:39Speaker 1: with that Trivia Battle, Light FM.

- 26:05Speaker 2: and again.
- 26:05Speaker 1: Thank you for all you do. Teachers, you are amazing.
- 26:08Speaker 1: Can't forget about the nurses either. We've mentioned that many
- 26:11Speaker 1: times as well.
- 26:11Speaker 2: Yes we haven't. Mary Joe and new Rochelle, thank you.
- 26:14Speaker 2: I know you're a nurse and you're listening. We thank
- 26:16Speaker 2: you for all you do. It is also Nurse Appreciation Week,

- 26:30Speaker 2: the teachers, moms.
- 26:32Speaker 1: For Mother's Day, somebody will text us and we'll leave
- 26:34Speaker 1: somebody out. I'm sure you know I'm sure somebody will complain,
- 26:38Speaker 1: but I think we hit everybody right.
- 26:39Speaker 2: Whatever the powers that be are, can you separate teachers
- 26:42Speaker 2: Appreciation Week from nurses Appreciation Week? That's true because people
- 26:48Speaker 2: they're also important.
- 26:49Speaker 1: They're also important. Yes, yet we're trying to cover everybody right.
- 26:52Speaker 3: Anyway, more Covey and Christine and the great music variety

- 28:03Speaker 2: They sound great. That sounds like a very nice event too.
- 28:07Speaker 1: I think it will be a couple of showers around,
- 28:09Speaker 1: but don't let that scare you. We got plenty of
- 28:10Speaker 1: tents and some fun and then Mother's Day Sunday, beautiful
- 28:14Speaker 1: sunshine and a high and like the low seventies, and
- 28:17Speaker 1: you'll be celebrating Archie's birthday. Your cat, Christine.
- 28:20Speaker 2: Yes, he's going to me six. Actually believe it.
- 28:24Speaker 1: You've got him during the pandemic and we were doing
- 28:26Speaker 1: our shows from.
- 28:27Speaker 2: Home North Shore Animal League.
- 28:29Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 28:30Speaker 2: That's that's our little Archie.
- 28:32Speaker 1: You can be doing shots of fancy feast, like.
- 28:34Speaker 2: How do you whatever?
- 28:34Speaker 1: He wants to for a cat birthday.
- 28:37Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I want to go get get
- 28:39Speaker 2: like one of those little cat trees so we can
- 28:41Speaker 2: do some more climbing. Brand new cat tree, a brand
- 28:43Speaker 2: new cat tree. He needs something new to explore.
- 28:45Speaker 1: Maybe some of that. What's the stuff that makes them
- 28:47Speaker 1: all loopy?
- 28:48Speaker 2: Oh, catnip?
- 28:49Speaker 1: Catnip?
- 28:50Speaker 2: Yeah, and they like little puzzles, like if you give
- 28:52Speaker 2: them something where like you hide a tree and they
- 28:54Speaker 2: have to put their little paws in and seek it out.
- 28:58Speaker 2: And yeah, so he's a smart guy. So we'll be
- 29:00Speaker 2: celebrating that. Archie did want me to share with you
- 29:03Speaker 2: that today is National Animal Disaster Preparedness Day.
- 29:07Speaker 1: I've never heard of this. What is that?
- 29:08Speaker 2: It sounds really heavy, but it makes a lot of sense.
- 29:11Speaker 2: It's just a reminder to have an emergency kit to
- 29:15Speaker 2: go just in case you guys have to leave the
- 29:17Speaker 2: house in a hurry if something were to come up.
- 29:20Speaker 2: You want to make sure that you've got three to
- 29:23Speaker 2: seven days worth of food, water, medicines, and a first
- 29:26Speaker 2: aid kit in a waterproof bag, and you want to
- 29:28Speaker 2: make sure they're to go. Bag is like easily accessible.
- 29:31Speaker 2: So if you've got to make a run for it
- 29:33Speaker 2: for whatever reason.
- 29:34Speaker 1: I mean, it makes sense. You have a plan for
- 29:35Speaker 1: your family. Yes, your animals are your family.
- 29:38Speaker 2: Right, keep them in mind the same way you.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Have something for the kids ready to go.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Gotta have the pets.
- 29:43Speaker 2: Something for the pets. Also, make sure they've got their
- 29:46Speaker 2: like their chips, their microchips are up today, maybe their callers,
- 29:50Speaker 2: you know, for your dogs. And a buddy system, pet
- 29:53Speaker 2: friendly hotel or someone you could go to that accepts animals.
- 29:56Speaker 1: And again, what's today called again National.
- 29:59Speaker 2: Animal Disaster Preparedness Day?
- 30:02Speaker 1: All right, And we can't forget about the teachers, and
- 30:04Speaker 1: we can't forget about the nurses.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Because we love you guys, and we know your work
- 30:07Speaker 2: is so incredibly important. You add so much to our lives.
- 30:10Speaker 1: And I'm only giggling because we've said it so many times.
- 30:12Speaker 1: But still we get text messages that will say, hey,
- 30:15Speaker 1: you didn't mention nurses. Yes, hey you didn't mention teachers. Yes,
- 30:19Speaker 1: what is it about us, Christine? We're trying to please
- 30:21Speaker 1: everybody and we just can't do it.
- 30:23Speaker 2: We'd have to be on twenty four seven and then
- 30:26Speaker 2: they'd be asking us to leave.
- 30:27Speaker 1: That'd be a great iHeartRadio channel. It's a thank you channel. Yeah,
- 30:31Speaker 1: that's twenty four hours of thank you of.
- 30:33Speaker 2: Appreciation on the iHeartRadio app.
