  Speaker 3: New Jersey.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: And what's number one?
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: Hawaii, which makes sense to me.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: That does make sense. Are you sure you don't have
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: this list upside down? You know, I'm wondering. So you

  Speaker 1: go from Hawaii, yay, we're happy.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: To New Jersey, just as happy.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: That's amazing.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Now, I don't want to put you on the spot,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: but does this article say why we're happy?
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, WalletHub did this annual ranking of the happiest states
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: in the U.S. They base it on emotional and physical well-being.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: work environment, community, the environment itself, whether people are in
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: happy relationships. And apparently we're doing okay in New Jersey.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Like we're checking off all those boxes. That's amazing. Now
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: let's talk about taxes in New Jersey. Yeah.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: So again, how we're number two. So yeah, number one
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: is Hawaii, New Jersey. Then it's followed by Utah, Idaho, Maryland, Nebraska. Connecticut, Minnesota, California,
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: New Hampshire, and then coming in at number 11, which
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: really isn't too bad if you think about it, is
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: New York. Wow.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: But Jersey, peeps, we're up there at number two.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: And you're happy, right? You live in North Jersey.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: The love and joy I have for New Jersey. Born
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: and raised.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Does that have the whole list, by the way, or no?
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: If not, it's no big deal. I'm just curious who's last.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Oh, who was last?
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: That's okay.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: I always feel bad having to say it, but maybe
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: you're not listening this morning.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, you do have it?
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: I do have it.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Please tell me, I beg.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: It's West Virginia.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, poor West Virginia.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Louisiana came in number 49.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: And you love New Orleans.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: New Orleans.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I wonder if weather plays a factor there.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: That's what I think, right?
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: But poor West Virginia.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, West Virginia came in last.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Where the state flower is a satellite dish.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: That was an old joke because with satellite dishes, cable
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: wasn't around everywhere.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So you could get it if you had a
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: satellite dish and everyone had a satellite dish in West Virginia.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: That was the only way to get it. Because there
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: was no cable. But I think they now have cable
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and internet there at West Virginia. Yeah.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Working telephones.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: All of it. All right.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: We got Sting concert tickets coming up. We'll do that
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: around 725 and we'll begin another trivia battle here on
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Light FM.
