11:21
Speaker 2: We're Toby and Chilly in the morning. So let's talk
11:24
Speaker 2: about this funflation, shall we.
11:26
Speaker 3: It is true, well, it is very true, and I
11:28
Speaker 3: think this initially came up maybe last week World Cup
11:31
Speaker 3: ticket prices, Like even for somebody to go see a
11:33
Speaker 3: great soccer game, it's really expensive. So these sports games
11:37
Speaker 3: and stuff that people used to go to all the
11:39
Speaker 3: time now they can't afford.
11:41
Speaker 4: For us as a family, bowling.
11:42
Speaker 3: Bowling is something we used to do so much when
11:45
Speaker 3: my son was younger. But over the last i don't know,
11:47
Speaker 3: five to six years, even that's become a bit much.
11:51
Speaker 4: I don't think we can do this as often as
11:53
Speaker 4: we could before.
11:54
Speaker 2: It is absolutely true that everything is so much more expensive.
11:58
Speaker 2: I used to travel a lot to have experiences when
12:01
Speaker 2: my daughter Kyla was living with me. You know, now
12:03
Speaker 2: she's an adult out on her own. How you like
12:05
Speaker 2: all those expenses? No more funflation? For you. But you
12:08
Speaker 2: notice my significant other and I haven't gone really anywhere lately.
12:11
Speaker 2: And it's not about you know, recovering just from the
12:14
Speaker 2: knee injury and all this stuff and the knee surgeries.
12:17
Speaker 2: It's about everything being expensive, from our favorite places to stay,
12:21
Speaker 2: from our favorite places to travel to even the airfare
12:24
Speaker 2: to get there. Hold on to your wallet.
12:27
Speaker 4: It really is.
12:27
Speaker 3: So we were wondering, like, what's an example of funflation
12:31
Speaker 3: in your world? It used to be fun but it's
12:33
Speaker 3: just too darn expensive.
12:35

Speaker 4: Tell you what that was coming up?
16:05
Speaker 1: Top stories, top of the hour.
16:07
Speaker 3: The US World Cup men's soccer team will have their
16:10
Speaker 3: best player Falera and Belogan available for tonight's game against Belgium.
16:16
Speaker 3: He'd previously been suspended with a red card for stepping
16:19
Speaker 3: on another player's ankle. FIVA reviewed the play and suspended
16:23
Speaker 3: the penalty. Hundreds of masked Patriot Front members marched from
16:28
Speaker 3: Union Station to Eastern Market on the fourth of July,
16:31
Speaker 3: carrying American and Confederate flags. Interior Secretary Doug Bergham says
16:37
Speaker 3: although he disagrees with the group's message, he says they're
16:40
Speaker 3: entitled to the same free speech rights as anyone else now.
16:44
Speaker 3: Fireworks that were not properly put out sparked a fourth
16:47
Speaker 3: of July house fire in Ashbourne that spread to two
16:50
Speaker 3: neighboring homes, causing nearly one point two million dollars in damage.
16:54
Speaker 3: Three people went to the hospital. The administration says they
16:58
Speaker 3: will not rebid repairs to the Lincoln Memorial's reflecting pool.
17:03
Speaker 3: They say they're sticking with the same contractor they did
17:05
Speaker 3: the first time around. The repair could reportedly cost tens
17:09
Speaker 3: of thousands of dollars, and White House officials blame vandals
17:12
Speaker 3: for the damage. Three Red Line stations, Bethesda Medical Center
17:17
Speaker 3: and Grosvenor Strathmore, will close today through September sixth for construction.
17:22
Speaker 3: So Metro's running free shuttles between North Bethesda and Friendship Heights,
17:26
Speaker 3: but writers, of course, should expect twenty extra minutes or
17:29
Speaker 3: more on their commute. And finally, Bay Bridge travelers got
17:33
Speaker 3: a new site this weekend. It was a giant thirty
17:37
Speaker 3: by fifty foot American flag donated by local VFW and
17:42
Speaker 3: American Legion posts and officials say the flag is going
17:45
Speaker 3: to be flying on holidays like Labor Day, Veterans Day,
17:48
Speaker 3: and other federal observances.

Speaker 2: to play and win with your nearly impossible question. This week,
19:50
Speaker 2: Brian Adams tickets up for grabs. Now stay right there
19:54
Speaker 2: because next we Tellby and Chilly in the morning, as we.
19:57
Speaker 3: Do every Monday, we find a story we think will
20:00
Speaker 3: well make your Monday. This time, it's a Landover arena
20:02
Speaker 3: that recently turned into one giant baby shower for underserved moms.
20:07
Speaker 2: You gotta hear this. Don't go anywhere. Let's go over
20:10
Speaker 2: to Prince George's County for this story that we think
20:13
Speaker 2: might just make your Monday. Here at ninety seven point
20:15
Speaker 2: one washuf M, Toby and Chilly in the morning, hundreds
20:18
Speaker 2: packed into the Prince George's Sports and Learning Complex and
20:22
Speaker 2: Landover not for a game, but for a community baby shower,
20:26
Speaker 2: the kind where you walk in and you leave with diapers,
20:29
Speaker 2: maybe wipes, or a car seat and maybe just maybe
20:32
Speaker 2: a little peace of mind.
20:34
Speaker 3: So this was a free event and was put together
20:36
Speaker 3: by MedStar Health and also volunteers from Clinton Baptist Church,
20:40
Speaker 3: and it was designed with a very specific purpose, and
20:42
Speaker 3: that was to support the black and Latino families across
20:46
Speaker 3: the DC area who are trying to navigate the very
20:48
Speaker 3: real pressures of raising kids in today's economy. Now we're
20:51
Speaker 3: talking about families, we're buying formula or even a pack
20:54
Speaker 3: of diapers isn't always a given.
20:56
Speaker 2: But it's not just about the stuff, No, families, they
20:59
Speaker 2: also cannnected with resources for housing, insurance, snap Wick. It
21:04
Speaker 2: was a one stop shop for support that a lot
21:07
Speaker 2: of these parents well, honestly, they didn't have easy access
21:10
Speaker 2: to this stuff before they walked through the doors.
21:12
Speaker 4: And here's a bigger picture.
21:13
Speaker 3: Black and Hispanic mothers in Prince George's County face significant
21:17
Speaker 3: health's disparities when it comes to prenatal care, and infant
21:20
Speaker 3: deaths in the black community have been on the rise
21:23
Speaker 3: in recent years.
21:24
Speaker 2: This event is one community's answer to all of that,
21:28
Speaker 2: showing up, filling in the gaps, making sure families know
21:31
Speaker 2: they're not doing this thing called life alone. It's now
21:36
Speaker 2: in its third year and judging by the turnout, it's
21:39
Speaker 2: only getting bigger.
21:41
Speaker 3: So thank you so much to MedStar Health and also
21:44
Speaker 3: from the volunteers at the Clinton Baptist Church for putting
21:46
Speaker 3: on this community baby shower and giving us a story
21:50
Speaker 3: that really did make our Monday.
21:51
Speaker 2: And if you want to read more about it, get
21:53
Speaker 2: to the Toby and Chilly page at waschipfim dot com.
21:55
Speaker 2: Oh you've got a story that you think we should
21:57
Speaker 2: share that might just make our Monday, Well send it
22:01
Speaker 2: to us. We can't wait to read it. And as
22:04
Speaker 2: we keep things rolling. We've got Top Stories at the
22:06
Speaker 2: Top of the Hour coming up in just a few
22:08
Speaker 2: What are you working on.
22:09
Speaker 3: We all know that a lot of teens and young
22:11
Speaker 3: adults struggle with mental health, but you might be surprised
22:14
Speaker 3: to find where these young people are turning for advice.
22:22
Speaker 1: Top Stories, Top of the Hour.
22:24
Speaker 3: NATO leaders will meet in Turkey starting tomorrow, with European
22:28
Speaker 3: allies getting ready for a future where the US plays
22:31
Speaker 3: a smaller role in the alliance's defense. This all comes
22:34
Speaker 3: as the President keeps pressing for changes to how NATO
22:38
Speaker 3: operates well. The US continues its World Cup run today,
22:41
Speaker 3: with the men's team battling Belgium in the round of
22:45
Speaker 3: sixteen in Seattle. The US is trying to make its
22:48
Speaker 3: first quarterfinals appearance at the World Cup since two thousand
22:51
Speaker 3: and two. DC's nine one one Center logged thousands of
22:55
Speaker 3: calls this Fourth of July, with nine pm Saturday apparently
22:59
Speaker 3: as the busiest hour of the year, and most of
23:01
Speaker 3: those calls were about illegal or hazardous fireworks. Police say
23:05
Speaker 3: they made just four arrests on the mall, but more
23:08
Speaker 3: than a dozen fireworks related arrests citywide. The White House
23:12
Speaker 3: released a report on Saturday accusing Smithsonian leadership of pushing
23:16
Speaker 3: political activism over honest history. They singled out the National
23:21
Speaker 3: Museum of American History for allegedly downplaying the founders. This
23:26
Speaker 3: all follows an executive order from the President targeting what
23:29
Speaker 3: he called divisive historical narratives. Metro says, Everybody's okay. After
23:34
Speaker 3: a train derailed near the College Park station on Saturday,
23:38
Speaker 3: investigators blamed the extreme heat for warping a rail and
23:41
Speaker 3: causing that derailment, and a new study finds at about
23:45
Speaker 3: one in five teens and young adults turned to AI
23:48
Speaker 3: chatbots for mental health advice last year. Nearly two thirds
23:53
Speaker 3: kept it a secret from their parents or doctors, and
23:56
Speaker 3: researchers warned that chatbots upbeat responsive may reflect flattery rather
24:02
Speaker 3: than actual sound guidance. Forecast for today, we have a
24:06
Speaker 3: chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon, with highs
24:09
Speaker 3: around eighty six. Right now seventy seven in Beltsville.
24:13
Speaker 2: Well, in case you missed it, over the holiday weekend,
24:15
Speaker 2: there was a wedding of sorts at Madison Square Garden
24:20
Speaker 2: in New York City. I wonder who we're talking about. Well,
24:25
Speaker 2: in case you missed it. We'll tell you about this
24:27
Speaker 2: wedding and we'll unpack everything that we saw and share
24:31
Speaker 2: our thoughts in just a few She didn't know. It
24:37
Speaker 2: is National ice Cream Month and during the summer months,
24:39
Speaker 2: the average person eats eleven scoops of ice cream a week.
24:43
Speaker 2: Ninety seven point one Wash FM. We're Toby and Chilly
24:45
Speaker 2: in the morning.
24:46
Speaker 3: As far as favorite brands in Virginia, it's Coldstone Creamery.
24:49
Speaker 3: For Marylanders, it's Tilenti and in DC, Jenny's Splendid ice Cream.
24:56
Speaker 2: You had me at ice cream? Can we have some
24:59
Speaker 2: magic shell in bluebell on this list? So where do
25:02
Speaker 2: you want to start? When we talk about the Taylor
25:04
Speaker 2: Swift and Travis Kelsey wedding over the weekend, there's so
25:08
Speaker 2: many angles and nobody exactly knows what really happened except
25:13
Speaker 2: for the people who were inside. And well, of course
25:16
Speaker 2: you have that many people inside, some things are going
25:17
Speaker 2: to drip out. Ninety seven point one WATCHFM. We're Telby
25:20
Speaker 2: and Chile in the morning. Where do we begin?
25:22
Speaker 3: Well, I think one of the things that leaked initially,
25:24
Speaker 3: Toby was that Adam Sandler officiated the wedding and that
25:29
Speaker 3: there were no bridesmaids or groovesmen like Jason was Travis's
25:32
Speaker 3: best man and Austin, Taylor's brother, was the man of honor.
25:36
Speaker 3: Right on, So let's start with the Adam Sandler officiating
25:40
Speaker 3: and singing, like, does that surprise you in any way?
25:43
Speaker 2: Or that's Travis Kelsey putting his stamp on the entire thing?
25:46
Speaker 4: You think it was Travis?
25:47
Speaker 3: Ah, hey, sure put me in Happy Gilmore to let
25:49
Speaker 3: him officiate the wedding, right And I also think too
25:52
Speaker 3: that there's got to be some camaraderie between all three
25:55
Speaker 3: of them, between Taylor, Travis.
25:57
Speaker 2: And Adam Sandler. So it's kind of a cool thing,
25:59
Speaker 2: you know, and he's ordained, so you know what game on.
26:02
Speaker 3: Here's another thing we learned, TMZ saying that each of
26:06
Speaker 3: them gave twenty minute vows and that Taylor sang part
26:09
Speaker 3: of her vows. That's a lot of talking to each other.
26:12
Speaker 3: For the guests had to sit through forty minutes of vows.
26:15
Speaker 2: There was that, But I also really liked what I
26:17
Speaker 2: heard about those vows that they brought both of them
26:20
Speaker 2: to tears, and that's the sign of true love, real
26:23
Speaker 2: like a real connection.
26:25
Speaker 4: You know, they definitely have a connection.
26:26
Speaker 2: You can talk that long about one another, sing a
26:29
Speaker 2: song and then boom tears. Yes, I'm sure it was magical.
26:33
Speaker 3: And they were expecting other people of the twelve hundred
26:35
Speaker 3: guests to also cries, so they were all handed handmade
26:39
Speaker 3: handkerchiefs with two tees intertwined so that they could wipe
26:43
Speaker 3: their tears away while they.
26:44
Speaker 2: Were twined with hearts at this garden party inside the
26:48
Speaker 2: garden that is known as Madison Square Garden. It's just
26:51
Speaker 2: oh my, it'll all be real clear when the Disney
26:55
Speaker 2: Plus special releases later on this fall.
26:58
Speaker 3: Yes, you believe that's going to happen, right, Yes, going
27:00
Speaker 3: to be a televised something.
27:02
Speaker 2: Would not have had her video crews and people there,
27:05
Speaker 2: She would not have had that stage done up the
27:08
Speaker 2: way it was done. There's always something else.
27:10
Speaker 1: Paul McCartney singing, I mean a.
27:13
Speaker 2: Song that he hadn't sung in decades.
27:15
Speaker 4: I want to hold your hand. Yeah, I mean that's intense.
27:17
Speaker 3: So I think that there's a lot to that rumor
27:20
Speaker 3: that this is going to be televised because her fans,
27:22
Speaker 3: well they deserve all the Swifties deserve to be part
27:25
Speaker 3: of the ceremony.
27:26
Speaker 2: When she did bring them in too. She did announce
27:28
Speaker 2: it right there on Madison Square Garden when it was done,
27:31
Speaker 2: so it's not like the world didn't know. The world
27:34
Speaker 2: absolutely knew. And it was beautiful from what I'm told.
27:38
Speaker 2: I think Mamma Kelsey called it magical when she was
27:41
Speaker 2: asked during the Macy's Fourth of July parades.
27:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also now we just wait to see the
27:47
Speaker 3: door tucks and door dress she reportedly wore.
27:49
Speaker 2: Don't forget about the custom low bouton shoes either.
27:52
Speaker 4: We'll see if any photos leak Since straight up flex.
27:57
Speaker 2: Toby and Tilly in the morning at ninety seven point
27:58
Speaker 2: one wash Chef Ben, have you seen the fountains are
28:02
Speaker 2: flowing again. There's new stuff popping up all over DC.
28:06
Speaker 3: And now Freedom Plaza has reopened after months of rehab,
28:10
Speaker 3: including now a dozen life size statues of revolutionary war heroes,
28:14
Speaker 3: plus a new monument that honors the patriots who died
28:17
Speaker 3: on the British prison ships America.
28:22
Speaker 2: Is it just me, Chi Leaders, This seem like one
28:24
Speaker 2: of those weeks where people are like on vacation, And
28:27
Speaker 2: I think you're right, it's a little odd, a little
28:30
Speaker 2: quiet around here at the office. Hopefully it's a quiet
28:32
Speaker 2: week for you. Hopefully it's not too crazy. Thanks for
28:35
Speaker 2: joining us this morning. It's ninety seven point one washing

28:39
Speaker 3: Before we bounce out of here and have Jenny Chase
28:41
Speaker 3: come in, we always like to leave you with a
28:43
Speaker 3: quote to get you into a good morning mindset.
28:48
Speaker 2: The philosopher Plato would remind us on this Monday, the
28:52
Speaker 2: beginning is the most important part of the work. The
28:56
Speaker 2: beginning is the most important part of the work. It's
29:00
Speaker 2: kind of appropriate for a Monday, at brand new week.
