2:09
Speaker 1: not need. And I didn't buy anything, but I mean,
2:11
Speaker 1: you could buy everything from lawn equipment to toys to
2:15
Speaker 1: I thought of you because there were some saltines there.
2:18
Speaker 1: Someone was selling a bunch of saltines. You're kidding, because
2:20
Speaker 1: we feel like, as a show, we need saltines around
2:23
Speaker 1: here because sometimes their stomachs aren't crazy and they're never around.
2:27
Speaker 1: I almost bought a huge, I mean a massive, like
2:29
Speaker 1: Costco style box of of what do you call them? Saltees?
2:33
Speaker 1: And I didn't do it because I'm like, why buy?
2:35
Speaker 1: Would you ever buy food from a flea market?
2:38
Speaker 2: I never, I never thought of it. I never saw
2:41
Speaker 2: saltines at a flea markets.
2:43
Speaker 1: And that's exactly why I didn't buy them.
2:44
Speaker 2: Okay, we'll shop today, Okay.
2:47
Speaker 1: And one cute thing that I noticed, so Naomi, my
2:50
Speaker 1: six year old, is learning about money in kindergarten, so
2:54
Speaker 1: she had three dollars on her, like, three dollars and
2:57
Speaker 1: ten cents, and so she was spending the whole flea
3:00
Speaker 1: market going through and picking out and trying to find
3:03
Speaker 1: out what she could buy, yeah, and picking out things.
3:06
Speaker 1: And we were like, honey, you don't have to spend
3:08
Speaker 1: it all today, right, but she was determined to spend
3:10
Speaker 1: it all today, okay, and she did yesterday. She spent
3:13
Speaker 1: three dollars and five cents on a bunch of these things,
3:16
Speaker 1: you know, those key chip She puts key chains now
3:19
Speaker 1: all over her backpack and Kristen's nodding. Kids are so
3:23
Speaker 1: into this.
3:24
Speaker 2: So we're adults really Yeah, chains on the back, charms
3:27
Speaker 2: trying charms on their hand.
3:29
Speaker 1: But her backpack now weighs about ninety pounds. Yeah, oh yeah,
3:32
Speaker 1: because she's putting things on.
3:33
Speaker 2: That's why I won't do it.
3:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, So she spent all her money on that. And
3:37
Speaker 1: then Miles kind of learning about money, and he bought
3:39
Speaker 1: a couple of cars. Was how cute he's addicted to cars? So,
3:42
Speaker 1: my fluarirl loves cars, you loves charms?
3:45
Speaker 2: Did you teach them the bargain?
3:47
Speaker 1: No, that's funny. You know, I could have taught him
3:49
Speaker 1: to haggle, right, Yeah, the prices were so good. I'm like, yeah, if.
3:52
Speaker 2: It's a dollar miles off for fifty cents for seventy.
3:55
Speaker 1: Five, Yeah, all right, Coming up, we got three pretty
3:58
Speaker 1: cool things. That's right. I'm gonna do three today. Coming
4:01
Speaker 1: up on LIGHTFM.
4:02
Speaker 3: More Covey and Christine and the great music variety you
4:04
Speaker 3: expect next on light F them.
4:07
Speaker 2: Okay, I need to tell you two things.
4:10
Speaker 1: Coin's two pretty cool things. Thank you Christine for this
4:15
Speaker 1: cool thing, because you said I would like this story,
4:18
Speaker 1: and I love it. According to a new study, chimps
4:21
Speaker 1: in the wild might be better at predicting the weather
4:24
Speaker 1: than humans. Researchers found that these apes don't just wait
4:29
Speaker 1: for the rain to start. Instead, they sense when a
4:31
Speaker 1: storm is coming and prepare their beds hours in advance.
4:35
Speaker 1: On nights that they're going to be cold or wet,
4:37
Speaker 1: they build thicker, deeper nest and pick taller trees with
4:41
Speaker 1: thicker leaves to stay on. The big breakthrough here is
4:46
Speaker 1: that chimps aren't just like reacting to the weather that
4:49
Speaker 1: they see right now. They're planning for the weather that's
4:52
Speaker 1: coming later. It's like they have an internal vibe of
4:54
Speaker 1: the forecast. So it's all about preparation. So yeah, I mean,
4:59
Speaker 1: forget Pucketon Phil, how about like Charlie the Chimp.
5:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, when he's building a big nest, we're in trouble.
5:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be a cold winner or whatever. That's
5:07
Speaker 1: that's really really cool. What's your cool thing, Christine.
5:10
Speaker 2: Well, this is great for Barbie fans and people who
5:12
Speaker 2: love to collect from the post office. The US Postal
5:15
Speaker 2: Service is rolling out a fun new set of ten
5:18
Speaker 2: Barbie Theene stamps this summer. So we're going to have
5:21
Speaker 2: Barbie as an astronaut, a surgeon, a soccer player, sign
5:25
Speaker 2: language teacher, all the cool stuff, all the careers that
5:28
Speaker 2: Barbie has, and they'll be part of the Forever Stamps
5:31
Speaker 2: and they'll which is now seventy eight cents by the way,
5:34
Speaker 2: so yes, yeah, just make sure you get them. So.
5:37
Speaker 2: Their official debut is July eleventh, it's the National Barbie
5:41
Speaker 2: Doll Collector's Convention in Austin, Texas. At that point, my
5:45
Speaker 2: cousin Jeanie goes to that she loves it. I hope
5:47
Speaker 2: she's hearing this story. You can now get the stamps.
5:49
Speaker 1: Can you say collectible?
5:50
Speaker 2: Collectively?
5:51
Speaker 1: It's going to be pretty popular. I thank you. Yeah, absolutely,
5:53
Speaker 1: all right. We're coming right back with a little music
5:55
Speaker 1: from the K pop demon Hunters.
5:56
Speaker 3: Next on LINFM, more Covey and Christine and great, here's

6:10
Speaker 1: a good ring.
6:11
Speaker 2: Too, Yes, of course.
6:12
Speaker 1: All right, well, Christine, I'm a I'm a Lukewarm, not
6:16
Speaker 1: Luke Skywalker, Lukewarm Star Wars fan. I don't hate it,
6:20
Speaker 1: don't love it, but you are probably the biggest fan.
6:23
Speaker 1: You and Kristin in the room.
6:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, and Kristin knows are Star Wars really
6:27
Speaker 2: well too?
6:27
Speaker 1: So because it is Star Wars Day, let the debate begin.
6:30
Speaker 1: What's the best Star Wars movie? And why? Okay, we're
6:33
Speaker 1: going to open the texting at four four, three, six
6:35
Speaker 1: three if you're really into it. But according to Entertainment Weekly,
6:38
Speaker 1: these are the top three. Can you tell me, because
6:41
Speaker 1: you are the Star Wars connoisseur, if you agree with
6:43
Speaker 1: these number one? Star Wars Episode five, The Empire Strikes
6:48
Speaker 1: Back nineteen eighty. I do remember that one. I do
6:51
Speaker 1: like that one, but I haven't seen all of them
6:54
Speaker 1: to say if it's you know, a good number one,
6:57
Speaker 1: but is it a good number one in your opinion
6:59
Speaker 1: or do you think there's other ones or better?
7:01
Speaker 2: Yeah? I get I yes for many reasons. Yes, and
7:06
Speaker 2: just because we don't have enough hand solo, you know. Yeah,
7:11
Speaker 2: it might fall to number two for me.
7:13
Speaker 1: Well. Number two on this list is Star Wars episode four,
7:16
Speaker 1: which is basically the original Star Wars Yeah, came out
7:19
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy seven.
7:21
Speaker 2: I might make that my number one yep.
7:23
Speaker 1: And then at number three Star Wars Episode eight, The
7:26
Speaker 1: Last Jedi from twenty seventeen. Now, according to voters on
7:32
Speaker 1: ranker dot com, what I just did was Entertainment Weekly.
7:35
Speaker 1: This is ranker dot com. Yeah, Number one is Star
7:37
Speaker 1: Wars episode five, The Empire Strikes Back from nineteen eighty
7:41
Speaker 1: so they both have that at number one, okay. Number
7:44
Speaker 1: two is Star Wars episode four, A New Hope nineteen
7:46
Speaker 1: seventy seven, So again along the lines of Entertainment Weekly,
7:50
Speaker 1: and what number three is is different. Number three is
7:54
Speaker 1: Return to the Jedi from eighty three, which didn't make
7:57
Speaker 1: the top three for Entertainment Weekly, so.
7:58
Speaker 2: They like the original three correct, Yes, so would you
8:02
Speaker 2: are you?
8:03
Speaker 1: Sir?
8:03
Speaker 2: Kristen likes all the you know, when we focus on
8:06
Speaker 2: Darth Vader Anakin.
8:08
Speaker 1: Revenge of the Sith episode three, or Revenge of the
8:10
Speaker 1: Sith or episode.
8:12
Speaker 2: She's giving us hand signals episode three. Yes, Natalie Portman
8:16
Speaker 2: comes into the picture and that whole series.
8:18
Speaker 1: By the way, it's her fav side note, there's a
8:20
Speaker 1: reason Kristin can't talk on the radio. And I'm thinking
8:22
Speaker 1: about starting a podcast where we address the situation. That's
8:25
Speaker 1: a whole another story.
8:26
Speaker 2: That'd be cool Kristen and we call it Kristen Speaks.
8:29
Speaker 2: There you go, yeah, because you were thinking of a
8:31
Speaker 2: name and Kristen's here too, something like.
8:34
Speaker 1: That Kristen Covey and Christine's podcast and Kristen Speaks or
8:39
Speaker 1: something that you're working on that all right? So, if
8:42
Speaker 1: you're a Star Wars fan, hit us up at four
8:43
Speaker 1: four three sixty three. Do you have anything you want
8:45
Speaker 1: to add to this whole Star Wars conversation, Because again,
8:48
Speaker 1: I'm not a huge fan and you're much more of
8:50
Speaker 1: a fan.

Speaker 2: I feel I should they just make me happy. The
8:55
Speaker 2: movies just make me happy. If I'm ever flipping around
8:57
Speaker 2: TV and there they are for whatever reason, and I

14:33
Speaker 2: It started in a mattress warehouse along Courtland Street, quickly spread.
14:37
Speaker 2: All public schools in Belleville are closed, and the sudden
14:41
Speaker 2: collapse of Spirit Airlines continues to impact thousands of employees
14:44
Speaker 2: and travelers. Other airlines are trying to help pick up
14:48
Speaker 2: the slack. McDonald's getting rid of self serve soda fountains
14:52

Speaker 2: the grocery store, who isn't. Where do you get the
15:28
Speaker 2: most bang for your buck the wholesale clubs. So first
15:31
Speaker 2: of all, Costco and BJS have low prices all the time.
15:34
Speaker 2: But if you don't want to do a membership fee,
15:37
Speaker 2: there's discount chains like Winco, which I don't think we have.
15:41
Speaker 2: And if you want a major supermarket, Walmart is the
15:44
Speaker 2: number one ranked national chain for affordability.
15:47
Speaker 1: Or a flea market. I talked about this early in
15:50
Speaker 1: the show. Went to a flea market yesterday in Pennsylvania
15:52
Speaker 1: with a family, and you could find toys, you could
15:55
Speaker 1: find old electronics stuff, and then you can find a
15:58
Speaker 1: blanket of like tiede and toilet paper. Wow, and people
16:04
Speaker 1: were selling it. We didn't buy anything. Yeah, it looked
16:06
Speaker 1: pretty affordable. Okay, So don't knock a good flea market. Yeah,
16:09
Speaker 1: let's go if you need something like that.
16:11
Speaker 3: More Cubby and Christine and the great music variety you expect.
16:15
Speaker 1: Next on Light sixty seven, light FM, Cubby and Christine
16:18
Speaker 1: in the morning, producer Christian producing in the background, and
16:22
Speaker 1: coming off the weekend. There was a lot going on
16:24
Speaker 1: this weekend, but I gotta tell you flying a few
16:29
Speaker 1: stories made the headlines, and I mean, where do we start.
16:33
Speaker 1: We got we got Spirit going out of business. You
16:35
Speaker 1: have United hitting a light pole.
16:37
Speaker 4: I mean that that was crazy, right, Okay, let's start
16:41
Speaker 4: with that, because we were saying earlier, you've driven on
16:44
Speaker 4: the New Jersey Turnpike right and you feel like, wow,
16:47
Speaker 4: the planes feel so close that sometimes I duck, which
16:49
Speaker 4: I know is ridiculous, but it must be just some
16:52
Speaker 4: you know, nervous system reaction.
16:54
Speaker 1: Uh huh.
16:55
Speaker 2: But yeah, plane coming in from Italy clipped a light pole,
16:58
Speaker 2: which then hit attract a trailer. So that driver, thank goodness,
17:03
Speaker 2: he's okay, right, very scary, but he has to be
17:06
Speaker 2: pretty shaken up.
17:07
Speaker 1: My wife showed me the video of inside of this
17:09
Speaker 1: vehicle and the drivers just kind of, you know, vibe
17:13
Speaker 1: into the music, yes, kind of notice the plane and
17:16
Speaker 1: boom it just goes off like yeah, here a crash
17:19
Speaker 1: and all that, and like, like you said, he's okay.
17:21
Speaker 1: But when they're when they're approaching, when I say they
17:24
Speaker 1: when the planes are approaching runway two nine, which is
17:28
Speaker 1: usually you know, on windy days, when they're flying, they're
17:32
Speaker 1: landing towards the west, so they're coming around kind of
17:36
Speaker 1: bayone and Newark Bay, and then they're flying right over
17:39
Speaker 1: the turnpike. And that's when you said, you see the
17:42
Speaker 1: landing gear, you feel like you can touch it. And
17:44
Speaker 1: it happens all the time. And sometimes I say to myself,
17:47
Speaker 1: you know what, the plane's so big, it looks like
17:49
Speaker 1: it's a lot closer than it really is. But apparently
17:51
Speaker 1: I was wrong, because this thing again clipped a light
17:54
Speaker 1: pole on the turnpike. And again nobody heard.
17:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're fortunate, everyone's okay. And then did you wake
18:00
Speaker 2: up Saturday morning and find that Spirit Airlines had shut down?
18:03
Speaker 1: And when they shut down, they meant it, they meant it.
18:06
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, the app wouldn't open.
18:07
Speaker 2: I heard no customer service.
18:09
Speaker 1: No customer service, So if you had.
18:11
Speaker 2: A flight, they can't help you to, you know, find
18:14
Speaker 2: a different airline. So I mean, what's nice is the
18:16
Speaker 2: other airlines like Jet Blue and United and Delta. I'm
18:20
Speaker 2: sure American they're stepping up and they're offering flights at
18:24
Speaker 2: you know, reasonable prices for people who were kind of
18:27
Speaker 2: in a jam, one way non refundable flights to get
18:29
Speaker 2: them to their destination. But that's only like within a
18:32
Speaker 2: certain window, right, I think until.
18:34
Speaker 1: Like middle of May. The link I saw in United
18:38
Speaker 1: it was like I had, if you had travel plans
18:40
Speaker 1: from now into like May eighteenth or something, we'll try
18:43
Speaker 1: to accommodate you. Use this link, right and you'll get
18:46
Speaker 1: a deal.
18:46
Speaker 2: Because Eric and I had we almost booked something on Spirit.
18:50
Speaker 2: We were just just looking for a flight recently, and
18:53
Speaker 2: we almost went with Spirit, but it had been in
18:56
Speaker 2: the news that they might be shutting down because bankruptcy.
18:58
Speaker 1: You're apprehensive about it, so we.
19:00
Speaker 2: Didn't do it. So ultimately I'm relieved we didn't do it.
19:02
Speaker 2: And they're saying like people will get their money back
19:05
Speaker 2: right away if you booked directly with the airline, but
19:08
Speaker 2: if you used a travel agent or like Expedia or
19:11
Speaker 2: something like that, it's it's going to be a little while.
19:13
Speaker 1: When I was traveling on the turnpike this morning, you know,
19:15
Speaker 1: I'm going coming from East Brunswick, coming north and I'm
19:18
Speaker 1: coming towards the city. And when I passed Newark on
19:20
Speaker 1: the left hand side. I saw about twelve Spirit flights,
19:24
Speaker 1: not flights, but planes just lined up and dark. Oh
19:27
Speaker 1: and it was kind of sad, like this said, they
19:29
Speaker 1: were just parked and I don't know what they're going
19:31
Speaker 1: to do with them. I mean, maybe another airline will
19:33
Speaker 1: swoop in and buy those planes. There's also a hope
19:36
Speaker 1: of maybe revitalizing.
19:38
Speaker 2: And get wonder there's a movement where people, the people
19:42
Speaker 2: are so Spirit yeah, are like we can buy it,
19:45
Speaker 2: you know, like let's get together people and buy Spirit Airlines.
19:47
Speaker 2: I mean, it's got this huge ripple effect because there's
19:50
Speaker 2: all these people losing their jobs. Then there's the options
19:53
Speaker 2: for flights that are no longer on the table, you know,
19:56
Speaker 2: and Spirit could be more affordable. So it's tough. And
19:59
Speaker 2: then the there's the story. Did you hear about this
20:01
Speaker 2: Spirit pilot John Jackson. It was supposed to have been
20:04
Speaker 2: his final retirement flight on Saturday, but the airline shut
20:09
Speaker 2: down hours before, meaning he missed it by one day. Ah,
20:14
Speaker 2: So we flew back home on Southwest as a passenger
20:16
Speaker 2: with his son, which could have been anticlimactic, but Southwest
20:20
Speaker 2: caught wind of it and they set it up so
20:22
Speaker 2: that he had a mini retirement party with their staff
20:24
Speaker 2: at the arrival gate.
20:26
Speaker 1: Oh I'm glad that he was able to at least
20:28
Speaker 1: celebrate that moment.
20:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, boy, I said in his speech, He's like, is
20:31
Speaker 2: very overwhelming. I can't thank you all enough. As spirit
20:35
Speaker 2: goes down. This is a sad day and you guys
20:36
Speaker 2: made it incredible. Thank you so much.
20:38
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we're thinking about all the people that
20:40
Speaker 1: were impacted by it. It's tough right now. Yeah, we're
20:43
Speaker 1: coming right back. We do have a trivia battle on
20:45
