  Speaker 1: LNFM with Cubby and Christine in the morning. Producer Kristen
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: producing in the background. And it's a very autumn-like morning.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: It's currently 55 here in Midtown, but some of the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: suburbs in New Jersey in the upper 40s.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Yes. It's real, right? It was real. I stepped out
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: with just my denim jacket. That wasn't enough.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I have a hoodie on for the first time
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: this season. I love it. I love it. I love it.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I love being cozy.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: We have two pumpkins on our steps at home.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: We were in Pennsylvania over the weekend, and all the
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: pumpkins are out. So we grabbed a couple and, you know,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: got the Halloween stuff. Not full-fledged Halloween, but one Halloween
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: skeleton is on the door outside. We have a couple, like,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: little mini ghosts and stuff that are plastic we put
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: in the yard sometimes. Haven't done that yet, but it's here, man. Wow,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: you're getting close.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Okay, technically September 15th. They're like a month in, so
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: six weeks away, say, from Halloween.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: So I see nothing wrong with anything Halloween being out
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: You think it's time?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Well, if Spirit Halloween opened in July.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Well, yes.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Now it's definitely time.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Right. Because I was at Stop and Shop yesterday, and
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: I was looking at the mums and the pumpkins, you know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: and I was like.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: That's another fall thing, mums.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, do I?
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Is it time? I'm not sure. Like, it is going
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: up to the 80s later this week, right?
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: That's true. I heard Friday could be humid again and
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: all that. Right. This is the kind of weather that
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: you feel and you get inspired.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: You do.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: For what's to come.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: That's something to look forward to. Today's Snoopy release day
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: at Starbucks.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Oh, is it?
• 1:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, producer Kristen just looked up. Like, yes. Yeah. Like,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: if you want, remember the barista and how it sold
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: out in like a minute?
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Is this when Kristen made her run last year for us?
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: She did, and she couldn't get it. So there's one
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: that's like, it's, I think, even cuter because it's Snoopy.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: And like all the Snoopy merch is being released today
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: at Starbucks.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: So that will go probably pretty quick.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: You better be there now. Like they open at 6
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: and they usually get like 2.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Maybe Kristen could go down there and then call us
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: because she'll be a caller. Oh, yeah. Because she can't
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: talk on the radio due to the issues we have here.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: But maybe she could call on the phone and be
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: just a caller. caller because callers can be on the
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: radio see how kristen feels and do it up there
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: chris is like now.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Hell no it's cold out there we're putting her out
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: into the cold.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: And you're mentioning christine that you have a date now
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: of the snowflakes that are going to be coming uh
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: like the decorations.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Dude it's happening um november 18th i believe is the
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: giant snowflake on fifth avenue It's going up. People are
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: starting their Christmas shopping. We can do those stats in
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: a little while. It's like it's all going to come
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: rushing in now.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: I know. I want to hit the brakes, right?
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: All right, we're coming right back. We have two pretty
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: cool things. It's on the way next at Light FM.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Thank you for waking up with us. And welcome back,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Miss Corinne.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Next on Light FM.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I need to tell you two things.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Cubby and Christine's. Two pretty cool things. Did you know, Christine?
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: If you did, I didn't know. Pumpkins, squash, and gourds
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: are all technically the same species.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: That's right. Your zucchini... And jack-o'-lanterns are one and the same.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Cucurbita pepo, a species that originated in Mexico more than
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: 10,000 years ago. Farmers have since developed that into many
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: other things that we now use today. So pumpkin squash
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: and gourds, technically the same species.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Very nice.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: I thought that was rather cool.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Mexico, for pumpkin spice. Thank you.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: We owe it all to Mexico.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: We do.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Do you have a cool thing by chance?
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: I do. This is awesome.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Uber.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Uber has heard us. They have dedicated now accounts for
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: seniors for Uber rides. You can put it into a mode, right?
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: A simple mode. which provides larger text, bigger buttons, fewer
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: ride options, and saved favorite places. Loved ones can set
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: up the account, manage the payments, and track trips in
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: real time. And the seniors can call 1-833-USE-UBER. They don't
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: even have to use the app.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: And talk to somebody.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Yes, they can get a human. It's eligible. Some of
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: the health benefits, eligible medical rides can sometimes be paid
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: for using linked Medicare Advantage Flex Cards. I mean, this
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: is really, really helpful.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Very smart.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: For a lot of us who are trying to help
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: our friends and family navigate these appointments.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Because sometimes you have to book an Uber for somebody.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Now it might be easy enough for them to do
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: it themselves.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: They're going to feel so much better doing it themselves.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: And also when the Uber driver pulls up, they have
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: the option. They can text, they can ring the phone,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: or they can beep the horn. Hi, we're here.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Or like, you know, yell out the window.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Come out, your ride's ready.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Two pretty cool things, Light FM.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Mort Covey and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: Next on Light FM.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: You know what sound I really like? The sound of
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the dishwasher running in the other room while I'm on
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the couch pretending I contributed to the cleanup. Or when
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I hear the washer and dryer running.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: That sounds familiar.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: And I'm sitting. Uh-huh. You feel like something's getting done.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: But you're not doing anything. Although you filled up the
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: washer and dryer. Yeah. So I have the question here.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: What's an everyday sound? that you really like. Oh. Here
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: at Light FM, can you text us at 44363? Because
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking about like the sounds of dry leaves.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they're coming, the crunchy leaves.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: We had a few leaves in our yard, not like fall,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: like orange leaves quite yet, but you know, just probably
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: dead ones.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: They're starting.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: But the crunch.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: The crunch.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Love that sound.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: You know what sound I love and realize this morning,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: it's gone, is waking up to the sound of birds
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: chirping in the morning.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: That's a great point.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Like, even at 3 a.m., Cubby, they would be up
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: with me. I would hear the birds.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: And you hear them, like, even in Midtown. Like, if
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: we're walking from our parking garage to the radio station.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Like, at 5 a.m., you're... And this morning, no birds. Like,
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: they already skipped town.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Do you think they've already flown south?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Have they gone south for the winter, or are they
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: just sleeping in because, you know?
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Or is it because, yeah, the time change, I'm thinking.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: In the summertime, when we're.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Walking in here at 5 a.m., it's still kind of orange. Yes, right.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: But now the sun doesn't rise until like 7.15. Rain
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: on windows or roofs, I mean, nothing beats that.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: When you're safely inside.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: When you're safely inside. Yeah. But normally when it rains
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: real hard, where are you?
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: In a flood on Route 46.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know how that happens.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Oh, it does.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: You're always stuck in like flooding weather. Yeah. How about
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: a dog snoring and making random dream noises?
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: That's so cute.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: How about that for a nice sound?
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: That's cute. Kitties do it too.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Uh-huh. A coffee shop when it's busy but not slammed. Right.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Like a lot of hustle and bustle, but you've got
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: a nice seat and you hear the clanking.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: So there's like a little hum, yes, and you hear
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: the coffee being served, yes.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: That's really cool. But you're far away from the machine.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: It's not too loud.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Even on the Calm app, you can set it as
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: a background to calm down. Like you're in a coffee shop.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: They have coffee shop on there because people like it
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: that much. Interesting.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Give us a text. What sound do you really never
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: get tired of? You love hearing 44363. Hopefully the sound
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: of Light FM is on your list.

  Speaker 2: Cubby, every year I say I'm not going to wait
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: until the last minute. I go into panic mode to

  Speaker 2: my Christmas shopping, right? I'm not going to do it.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: This year I'm starting early. I haven't started early enough.

  Speaker 2: New survey finds. I know, fail before I even started. 34%
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: of consumers have already started their holiday shopping.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: And when you see that headline, does that make you
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: feel more behind?
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Yes, of course it does.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Every year I feel the, I'm sure we all do, 25%
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: have started their holiday shopping early to spread the cost
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: across several paychecks. A strategy especially popular with parents. I
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: know producer Kristen sharing with us and your family maybe
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: have gotten started. Certain items could be very hot this year.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Correct. Yes. Yep. We've gotten the ball going on that.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: And then, you know what? I have to hit the
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: kids up and we have to get a Santa list together.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: You know?

  Speaker 2: data centers, saying that that's a conspiracy that is only
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: benefiting China, that if people are raising concerns about that.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: Fashion designer to the stars Bob Mackie has passed away

• 13:09
  Speaker 2: account deposits. The first of the state's anchor program payments
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: are going out today. There is a plan that is
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: being looked at in New York City to make the
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: financial district a car-free zone.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Wow, that'd be big. I know.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: City leaders are considering the plan because, Cubby, as you know,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: there's some small winding kind of streets through there.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: In fact, the street I used to live on, Broad Street,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: is now completely cobblestone and gated off. Oh, wow. So
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: they're probably going to do more of that.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: More of that.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: But I don't know where all the other traffic is
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: going to go. Exactly.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: New Carnegie Deli opens today. They're back, right? We didn't
• 13:48

  Speaker 2: And I know gas prices are crazy at the moment.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: So the best time to fuel up, according to the experts,
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: would be Monday morning. So we'll keep it in mind
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: for next week. Prices are often lower at the start
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: of the week. Pay with cash. Many gas stations charge
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: about $ 0. 10 more per gallon if you use a credit card.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 14:27

• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Christine is going to tell us how you can turn
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: that mood around.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Oh, you turn that frown upside down. No, I'm not
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: going to be sickly sweet, I promise.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: Because that'll make it worse.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: And i'm hoping we put people in a good mood
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: with our music and our just you know random conversations
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: but sometimes you just wake up grumpy.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah you do and mental health experts say it's okay
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: it happens and they are not trying to like flip
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: it and make it completely positive but they say they're
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: just trying to like give you a moment that might
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: shift things.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: So there's little things you can do that might help
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: your bad mood. You wake up on the wrong side
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: of the bed. You literally make the bed. A quick
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: accomplishment first thing can create momentum for the rest of
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: the day.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: That's very true. I mean, you don't want to do it,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: but you like, well, I always make my bed. Well,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: if I'm there, I'm usually, but sometimes you just don't
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: want to, but if you can just do it, boom,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: it'll go a long way.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Yes. You cook a familiar meal. Repetitive tasks like chopping
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: and stirring can feel calming. A lot of people do
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: feel calm preparing food. It also feels like an accomplishment.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: Like you said, eat consistently because you want to keep
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: your blood sugar steady so you don't get hangry.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, I can do that. You know, I love eating consistently.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Me too.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: And sitting. Sitting and eating consistently. I love it.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: We got to get up and move, Cubby. Just every
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: now and then, we got to. Have a warm drink, coffee, tea,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: hot chocolate that can create a sense of comfort. It
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: actually helps your body relax. Like it's great for the
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: nervous system.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Hotty toddy.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: And sit and eat.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: And sit and eat and don't move. Sitting and eating.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: Rewatch a favorite show or movie. Anything familiar, predictable soothes
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: you because your brain already knows what's coming.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. I had an hour to myself
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: yesterday alone at the house and I was on my
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: laptop doing some Bill paying and had different strokes on.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: I knew we were going to end up with different strokes.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: I knew we were going there.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: I felt joy.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: That's your show.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Play uplifting music.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: Even just one upbeat song can shift your emotional state.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: E-consistently.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Smell something pleasant like vanilla or rosemary can give your
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: brain something positive to focus on. And finally, and this
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: is a little harsh for me, but okay. splash your
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: face with cold water it activates the body's calming rest
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: and digest response you.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Know one thing you um like you didn't mention that
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: i thought would be on the list because everything you
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: mentioned has to do within the house like it's all
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: in the house true sometimes if you're in a grumpy
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: mood and um i've done this before yeah you take
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: a different way to work i drive a different way
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: to work oh okay just a subtle different way not
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: a drastic difference yeah but Your mind is looking at
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: different things, thinking of different things.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: That's why we love going to different cities and new places.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: The discovery is wonderful. I thought you were going to say,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: you know, go out and take a walk because usually
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: the experts will say that, like get into nature for
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: a few minutes. But again, you don't believe in moving.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: I eat consistently and sit consistently. If possible. Light FM.

• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Selena Gomez's husband, you know, music producer. He's written a book.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: It's a four-letter word, F-Failure. The book, he says, is

  Speaker 2: about embracing your failure. He said after a while, he's like,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: I want you to read this and start to feel
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: good when you fail and realize that it's freedom and
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: you don't need to look back. So it sounds like
