- 0:02Speaker 1: with Kubby and Christine in the morning. Producer Christen hanging
- 0:05Speaker 1: out producing our show. I got to tell you We've
- 0:08Speaker 1: talked about this many times, but I want to bring
- 0:10Speaker 1: it up again because maybe you're new to our show
- 0:12Speaker 1: and you haven't heard this. But Christine, your birthday is

- 0:18Speaker 1: Producer Kristen is the twenty ninth. For those that haven't
- 0:21Speaker 1: heard your take on what it's like having a birthday
- 0:24Speaker 1: the day after Christmas. You've lived with it your whole life. Yes,
- 0:27Speaker 1: you're used to it now, but I am you feel
- 0:30Speaker 1: forgotten about?
- 0:31Speaker 2: Well yeah, well like every t Umber.
- 0:34Speaker 3: Twenty I'm going to speak on behalf of producer Kristen
- 0:36Speaker 3: and myself. We both kind of feel like we have
- 0:39Speaker 3: no expectations any longer. We just this has been it
- 0:44Speaker 3: our whole lives. I think when we were little, our
- 0:46Speaker 3: parents tried a couple of parties. Kids didn't show up
- 0:48Speaker 3: because they weren't around. So after a while it was like, Okay,
- 0:51Speaker 3: we're not going to do that. And even as an adult, Cubby,
- 0:55Speaker 3: I'm trying to get like a couple of friends together,
- 0:57Speaker 3: just like let's go to a restaurant. You can't get
- 1:00Speaker 3: people together. They're tired. It's the day after Christmas. Nobody
- 1:03Speaker 3: wants to do anything.
- 1:04Speaker 2: You totally understand that, but it stands the same time.
- 1:07Speaker 3: But I have to be understanding every year. And yeah,
- 1:11Speaker 3: and I am.
- 1:12Speaker 1: Back when you were like in elementary school, you never
- 1:15Speaker 1: got cupcakes because school was out, Like I think about
- 1:17Speaker 1: that for people that were born in like July or August, like,
- 1:20Speaker 1: they've never had a school birthday party, so you never
- 1:23Speaker 1: had a school birthday party.
- 1:25Speaker 3: They usually don't have a work birthday.
- 1:26Speaker 2: Party, right because we're on vacation.
- 1:28Speaker 3: No offense, but so that never happens. I have a
- 1:32Speaker 3: little science behind me because there's there's studies about this. Seriously,
- 1:36Speaker 3: I'm sure you read all these studies. Oh I saw
- 1:39Speaker 3: this this morning. I saw December birthday blues. I was like,
- 1:43Speaker 3: let me read this. Study shows just how much we
- 1:46Speaker 3: miss out. The average person not born in December gets
- 1:51Speaker 3: around six gifts on their birthday. Those born in December
- 1:55Speaker 3: far less. The worst thing you can do, honestly is
- 1:58Speaker 3: give the combo present, Like just don't bother that's terrible, right,
- 2:01Speaker 3: like just pick one or the other. But like say
- 2:04Speaker 3: this is a combination gifts birthday. I'll remember that come May.
- 2:09Speaker 3: And for for most of our December, part of December
- 2:15Speaker 3: is Sagittarius. But now we're we're flipping over to Capricorn.
- 2:18Speaker 2: So like this week, right, if not today.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Yeah, we're we're on the cusp. We're almost there. So
- 2:24Speaker 3: I'm Capricorn. Producer Kristen's Capricorn. We are the most rare
- 2:29Speaker 3: zodiac sign, and we have the least common birthdays Christmas Eve, Christmas,
- 2:34Speaker 3: New Year's Day, the least amount of babies born. Uh,
- 2:38Speaker 3: those are all Capricorns. So even if we feel a
- 2:41Speaker 3: little ignored around our birthdays, we have to remember Producer
- 2:45Speaker 3: Kristin that we're very unique. That was that was the
- 2:48Speaker 3: positive spin. You may get cheated out of gifts, but
- 2:52Speaker 3: you are very special, so you're important.
- 2:55Speaker 2: It makes you feel better. It's kind of cool.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Okay, you know what other birthdays kind of stink?
- 3:02Speaker 2: I know my sister in law is New Year's Day.
- 3:05Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's right in there.
- 3:07Speaker 1: You mentioned that, right, Yeah, what other I guess February twenty.
- 3:10Speaker 2: Ninth is kind of cool.
- 3:12Speaker 3: Yeah, but stinks. At the same time, you'll, you know,
- 3:15Speaker 3: still celebrate it. Yeah, a lot of people just in
- 3:18Speaker 3: winter birthdays kind of complain about their birthdays. Yeah they're
- 3:22Speaker 3: not good ones, hard for people to get together. But
- 3:25Speaker 3: I'm sorry. We take the cake right here, Okay, yes,
- 3:29Speaker 3: right around Christmas we get we get the biggest complaint,
- 3:33Speaker 3: the biggest whaf.
- 3:33Speaker 2: I will say, we're doing our morning show gift exchange
- 3:36Speaker 2: later in the in the day.
- 3:38Speaker 1: Yes, and I have both birthday presents and Christmas presents
- 3:42Speaker 1: for both of you. And thank you to my lovely
- 3:44Speaker 1: wife Coco for helping me and steering me in the
- 3:46Speaker 1: right direction too.
- 3:47Speaker 3: So you guys are incredibly thoughtful. Thank you.
