  Speaker 1: Nobody got the McDonald's caviar for me. Come on, I
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: thought you guys were looking out for me. Sorry, Chubby Christine,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: producer Christen here LIGHTFM. That was a big thing a
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: couple of days ago.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: It was free, right, yeah, I mean we had talked
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: about it and let it. We shared that you could
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: get this free kit from McDonald's mcnuggetcaviar dot com one
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: day only on Tuesday. These kits were going to be
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: given away on the site, right.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: So McDonald's is giving you there.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: They found that people like a mix of their McNuggets
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: with caviar, the real deal, like good caviar. It's worth
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: at least ninety five dollars and even a mother of
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Pearl spoon plus a twenty five dollars arch card, so
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: you can go buy your McNuggets when you get your
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: caviar kit. That again, Tuesday morning they opened it up
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: to give it away for free. It was quote unquote
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: sold out for lack of a better term, within minutes.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Actually the site crashed because there were so many bots
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: on their scooping up the freebies.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Hamburgler and now yeah probably, but you know, got to
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: trace it.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: Now it's on eBay and it's anywhere from like two
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: fifty to seven to fifty upwards.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, producer Kristen was just looking them up and that's
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: what she saw. Anyway, like that upper hundreds range. Yeah,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: there's like a two fifty like you said, but yeah,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: they were going for hundreds.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was just like where the biddings started.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: And that's a shame about the whole bot thing. It
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: happens all the time with concert tickets. On concerts, I
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: thought they were getting better at kind of stopping this.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know what goes on. You know.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: I wanted to see Lady Gaga. She's coming to the Garden, right,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: So Ticketmaster sent out an email and I hopped on
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: there and then by the time I got to it,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: we're talking. You know, this isn't for months. They said, Okay, Ticketmaster,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: we're all sold out. But these are legit second party sellers.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Those tickets were like a thousand, two thousand, but they
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: were like her ticket, they're verified.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: But yeah, but.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Even though they're not bots, they're taking advantage of it.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: It's just it's endlessly frustrating.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Christine. Remember the days of getting free tickets because we
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: were in radio No, that stopped about twenty years ago.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: People still hit me up, like, friends of mine, can
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: you give me tickets for blah blah blah.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I would love to, I'd like yeah.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: But you know what, in this day and age, you know,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: especially an artists like Gaga, you can sell every seat.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Every seat is a money maker and they don't give
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: out comps like they used to. So when we give
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: out tickets on LIGHTFM, it's a blessing.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all we got yeah, all right, we're coming right back.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: What do we have? Oh, you know what we're doing today.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: We're doing a Battle today because you have today. We
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: did a throwback track. We're bringing back the Battle and
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: we'll play in about fifteen minutes.
