  Speaker 1: A 45-year-old candidate for lieutenant governor in Iowa is being
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: sued by his own parents for unpaid rent. They say
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: he owes them $ 275, 000.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Good Lord. How many years has he not been paying
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: them back rent?

  Speaker 3: to run for office or something.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Tacoma, Washington set up those speed cameras, and they caught
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: over 400,000 speeders in the first month.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: That's a lot of tickets.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: A lot of speeders.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: The city says they don't have the ability to cite
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: that many people.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, so they're just throwing that money right down the drain.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: This falls under the category of food news, kind of.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: And I think this is kind of big news, but
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Kentucky Fried Chicken, KFC, officially dumped Pepsi last week and
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: switched to Coke.
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: I think that's a big deal.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: I thought Pepsi owned KFC.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Taco Bell, by the way, is sticking with Pepsi.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: So your Mountain Dew Baja Blast is safe. I think
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: they're all owned by the same people.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Speaking of Taco Bell.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: No, that's actually such a bummer, though, what, Rich, about
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: Taco Bell?
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: My kid Christopher just got hired at Taco Bell, his
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: first gig. Oh, he needs to bring in Taco Bell.

  Speaker 2: Easy.

  Speaker 1: Domino's just announced that they're launching six collectible Minecraft-themed pizza
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: boxes to pair with their new square pizza option.

  Speaker 1: I brought this up yesterday briefly, but the Ford Maverick,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Ford Maverick owners are reporting that their cars are starting
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: randomly without a driver's inside. My friend Chris has one
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: of those, and he says, yes, it happens to him
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: quite a bit.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: That is scary.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: That is very terrifying. It's on.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: It's dangerous if that's in a garage. That's real dangerous.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Do you remember they hit, the 1980s hit Mickey?
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Of course. Tony Basil. Oh, Mickey, you're so fine.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: You're so fine.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: You blow my mind.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Hey, Mickey.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: Hey, Mickey.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: She was dressed as a high school cheerleader in the video.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: She's 83 now. Oh, my God.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, I feel like the only
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: reason I know that song is because it's like in
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: all the bring it ons.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: So that's crazy.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: I didn't know it was the music video.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: She's 83.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: You just totally blew my mind right there.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: It's crazy.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Wow. The guy who invented the Keurig K-Cup coffee system
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: sold his stake in the company for $ 50, 000 in 1997.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Now, we talked about this recently on one of our
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: podcasts about how plastic is all in these things and
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: how unhealthy they are for you. He says he regrets
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: inventing it in the first place because those little cups
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: are terrible for the environment and the machines are way
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: too expensive and it's filling everybody with microplastics.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: I thought he was going to regret selling it for
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: only $ 50, 000 because it's probably worth way more now.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: In pet news, this is interesting for pets.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: A two-year-old cat named Rolo just got an emergency blood
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: transfusion from an unusual donor. It was a four-year-old cocker spaniel.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Rolo was critically ill. There was no feline blood available,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: so the veterinarian used some blood from her own dog
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: as a one-time emergency treatment.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: And it worked. Oh, my gosh. I would think that
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: wouldn't work, but it worked.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I saw a fun article on some artists that are everywhere.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: There's a time where you see these artists everywhere, and
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, they're gone. It's a list
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: of artists that are just gone, and it's pretty... When
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: I bring it up to you, you're going.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: To go, oh, yeah.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Like Owl City?
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: That's a great one. What happened to Owl City?
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't remember seeing Owl City, but I just
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: remember the song everywhere. But like, for example, Fergie. Fergie
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: exploded when she joined Black Eyed Peas. She had a
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: nice solo career after that. She released her last album
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: in 2017 and then stepped back to raise her son
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Axl and focus on investments.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: You don't really see Fergie anywhere ever again.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: I don't think that like the national anthem thing did
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: anything good for her.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: That's because that's what you see the most.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: You don't see Boom Boom Pow as much as you
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: do the national anthem.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: Iggy Azalea.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: She sold her music catalog in 2022 to concentrate on
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: business ventures. She said, quote, I feel more passionately about
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: design and creative direction than I do about songwriting.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: That be the act, Iggy.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Although she recently announced she's.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Got new music, but she also was everywhere.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Well, yeah, but she was like dating Playboi Carti, and
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: then there was a whole Swaggy P thing, and then
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: I got ice in my veins, it was a whole thing.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: What about Psy? Dang him, Psy.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Everywhere. But we needed him to come.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: He was never able to replicate that success. He's still
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: releasing music and running his own label in South Korea.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Do you remember our big controversy with him?
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I do remember that. What was that?
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: We did an interview with him, and we did the
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: wrap it up thing with him. It was pretty funny.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: But we would go, wrap it up, wrap it up.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: And they told us not to air it.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: And he thought it was terrible. He didn't like it,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: and he told us never to air it.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: Vitamin C had a smash in 1999 with Graduation.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: After kicking around a few more years, she went behind
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the scenes working as a music executive for Nickelodeon.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Now she works for Netflix.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: Oh, wow.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: And this is a big one. Go T.A.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: He had a number one hit with Somebody I Used
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: to Know in 2011 and swept the Grammys in 2013,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: then nothing.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: In 2017, he said, quote, I'm not interested in selling
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: my music.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: And honestly, though, what's crazy is I am shocked that
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: Dochi's Anxiety, that they didn't do like a remix or
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: like something like that. Because Anxiety, I mean, you listen
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: to that and you think it's Somebody I Used to Know.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: It sounds like he's over it, just the whole music
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: industry in general. He wants to be someone we don't
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: know anymore.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Rich, what do you got for life hacks?
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Okay, so when you light your jack-o'-lantern on fire on
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Halloween night, here's something that's kind of fun, a little
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: life hack. Sprinkle some cinnamon or pumpkin spice spice on
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: the inside of your carved pumpkin. Then when you either
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: use a battery-powered candle or a real candle... It heats
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: it up a little bit, and your porch is going
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: to smell fantastic. So instead of that kind of gross
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: pumpkin smell that, you know, we all know very much
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: because our pumpkins are probably a few weeks old, it's
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: going to smell like pie on your patio.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: That smells good.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Kind of nice, huh? That life hack and many more
• 6:02
