  Speaker 3: I bought really good Halloween candy, the minis, but they're
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: all my favorites.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: And they're in a, what is it? A five pound bag.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: It's a big bag, Toby.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Costco size slash Amazon bag.
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: It's sitting on top. It's Costco.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: It's sitting on top of my fridge and every day
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: I see it and every day I'm tempted, but I
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: got to say, I'm really proud of myself and I'm
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: calling myself out now. So I don't, Buckle and do
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: anything before Halloween. But I am not going to touch
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: that bag until Saturday night.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Would you like for me to bring some Halloween candy
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: in that I've got at the house? Because when I
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: was at CVS yesterday, I might have happened to see
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: a couple of things that made me go, that looks tasty,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: like Twix. But they have a special Twix for Halloween.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: And then they even have some of the Christmas chocolates
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: out already. So I might have grabbed some.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to tell you what to do, but
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: you can put in the kitchen and the vultures will
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: get to it.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Forget the kitchen. I'm going to put it in our
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: special little drawer in the studio where we hide our stuff. Yeah.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: I'm feeling good, too, because before I went to CVS
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: last night, I went by the what's it called? The
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: county council offices in Rockville for Montgomery County. And I
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: voted early and I got the sticker to prove it.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: You go to the Toby and Chili page and look
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: in the store. I'm telling you, it's easy to early vote. But, Chili,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: I got to tell you, there were a lot of
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: people there, more people than I expected. I thought I
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: was just going to just, you know, waltz in, do
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: my thing. I ended up having to wait a little
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: bit for one of the voting machines, which I'm not
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: unhappy about. Do you know why? It means people are engaged.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: And this whole thing works. This whole idea of America
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: works when people are engaged and they actually take the
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: time to go vote, you know. Anyway, this public service

• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Thank you for making us your choice to get your
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: day started here in the nation's capital. It's important that
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: we talk about how you're doing and is such your
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: morning mindset happens now.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: This is when we find a quote and share it
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: with you because sometimes someone else's revelation can be an
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: inspiration for you.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Well said, Chilia Marr, this early in the morning. We
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: turn to the words of John McEnroe, who is obviously
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: one of the greatest tennis players to ever play the game.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: John McEnroe says, everyone wants a great career. Don't miss
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: your life on the way to work. Everyone wants a
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: great career, but don't miss your life on the way
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: to work. You know why this is important? I think
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: it's important because, sure, a promotion matters. So does paying
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: the mortgage, and so does paying your bills. So does
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: making it to your kid's game. So does having dinner
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: with those friends that you maybe haven't seen in a
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: while or just enjoying Saturday without checking anything having to
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: do with work. via email, text, social media, whatever. Success
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: should not cost you everything that makes life worth living.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: And I will tell you that that is something personally
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: I need to work harder on. And I'm sure in
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: this town of a bunch of alphas running around that
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: we probably all need to take a step back and
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: remember what John McEnroe says. Everyone wants a great career,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: but don't miss your life. on the way to work.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Think about it. And by the way, if it spoke
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: to you, let us know. If you need to find it,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: you will. Toby and Chili page, washfm.com. Hopefully that helps
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: you this morning. And stay with us because in just
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: a bit here with Toby and Chili in the morning.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: You know, forget the spa.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: You need to book yourself or treat yourself to a
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: say no retreat.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Retreat yourself no we're toby and chili in the morning
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: it's 97.1 wash fm 866-927-4361 is the number to jump
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: in if you have any thoughts on anything you hear
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: no that's right no what is a say no retreat
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: and why is this making its way around the internet
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: of things today.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: So here's the concept. You dedicate an entire day and
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: you look at your calendar for the next few weeks
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: and even months and you ask yourself, what am I
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: doing that I don't actually need to do? And you
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: start by making a list, look at the calendar, consider
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: all the future appointments, even social plans, trips, any commitment
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: that you may have a dread about in the pit
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: of your stomach. And then you start saying no, Toby,
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: you start canceling things. it doesn't matter you just go
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: you know what that nope not gonna do that anymore
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: not gonna do that anymore and at the end you
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: feel like this i guess release of pressure because the
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: calendar doesn't look so full.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: So first things first you figure out what you don't
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: want to.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: Do yeah or need to do or need to do it's.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Important because you may need to go to the doctor
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: but you don't want to go to the doctor yeah
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: okay Nobody wants.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: To go to the doctor.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Make sure that you're looking at things you don't really
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: need to do as options to cancel.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: And they call this a say no retreat. Well, when
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: I think of retreat, I think of going someplace and
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: unplugging and doing nothing.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: Well, that sounds expensive. This is a lot easier. And
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: by the way, people probably feel overwhelmed with overcommitting. because
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: that's true they can't say no they don't feel or
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: when you commit to something this happens all the time
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: it's so far in the future you're like yeah i'm
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: sure i'll be fine doing it sure let's meet up
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: and then as it comes closer you're like oh i
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: wish i hadn't said.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Yes right so it's like that cruise that you put
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: a down payment on last week and you know it's
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: probably way too expensive for things right now go ahead
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: and circle back and say no to that that's up
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: to you i don't think i could That's true. Like,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: let's see. Hmm. Well, I better not list them. But
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: I do know this. If a say no retreat sounds
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: like something you want to say yes to, read more
• 9:17

  Speaker 2: Oh, this ain't going to be good.
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: OK, what rule exactly are you breaking here or did
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: you break?
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: I am falling for the guy and I want to
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: know if there's any way to turn the friendship off.
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: into something real and legit.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's real. All right. Those are real feelings that
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: you've caught toward your partner with whom you practice the
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: art of procreation.
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: Oh, no.
• 13:49
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Friends with benefits turning into feelings. Whoa, that's some risky territory.
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: I know you're not supposed to do that. But, you know,
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: what's better than a friend with benefits?
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: A partner with fewer complications, maybe. What is it about
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: this guy that you fell for him?
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: He calls me out on my stuff. And that's not
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: something that everyone is willing to do. And I like that.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: No harm, no foul. The heart wants what it wants.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: But are you going to tell him how you feel?
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: What are you going to do?
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: I don't know. We'll see. I need some help. Clearly.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Well, let's see what we can find that might help.

• 14:31
  Speaker 2: friend with benefits to be more than just a friend
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: with benefits thoughts what should she do call us we're
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: talking about it kim hang on the line and we'll
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: see what the opinion of those listening might be this
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: morning thank you So we in Chile in the morning
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: at 97.1 Wash FM in the midst of a little
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: bit of group therapy. This therapy is great. Do you
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: know why? Because it doesn't need to be turned into
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: your insurance and there is no copay. This morning, Kim
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: from Fairfax has entered the chat in need of some advice.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: So she's got a friends with benefits situation with this guy,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: but she's caught feelings. I mean, she likes him more
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: than just a friend. And now she doesn't know what
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: to do.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Stephen Damascus, do you have any thoughts for Kim?
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: Friends and benefits, that's a tough one because the guy's
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: probably just looking at it as a fun time. Even
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: if you're just friends and benefits over time, if it's
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: like a habitual thing and it's on a regular basis,
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: people always catch feelings.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: It's human nature.
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: Is that a good thing or not then?
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: I think that it's a bad idea because it's not
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: going to go anywhere with him because in his head
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: it was just a fling. Unless he also feels the
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: same way. That's something you should probably talk about.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: See, now that's where I do agree with you, because
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: if she doesn't say something to him, she'll never know
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: whether he feels the same.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: As someone who's been a friend with benefits and who's
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: had friends with benefits, I can tell you it is
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: a slippery, slippery slope. Chances are good it's not going
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: to end well.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: It's just friends with benefits thing, and it's known from
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: the get-go.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: It's a tricky situation.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: As it always is with matters of the heart, Steve. Exactly. Gracias, amigo.

  Speaker 2: Chili Carmen in Oxon Hill is hanging.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: What do you think she should do?
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: Ah. I say go for it because, you know, you
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: build that bond.
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: And I'm sure they're not just, you know.
• 16:24
  Speaker 7: Benefits with talking, having conversation and getting to know each other.
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: So what's the harm in trying it out? It's plenty
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: of fish in the sea. So if he doesn't want
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: to convert, then he don't get nothing.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: Yes, because as the saying goes, why buy the cow
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: when you can get the milk for free?
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Carmen in Oxon Hill, thank you.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Okay, Kim, you've been hearing all the feedback. What do
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: you think you're going to do about it?
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: Everyone is saying to just tell him and put it
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: all out there. And I think I'm going to have to.
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: I mean, what do I have to lose?
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: The benefits.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: The on-demand nature of things.
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: The rejection could hurt. I could lose my friend with benefits,
• 17:01
  Speaker 6: but you know. or it can turn into something even better.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: That is a very healthy perspective. And I wish you
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: the best. Hope it works out for you, Kim. Thank you.

  Speaker 4: Just adjust and Why do you feel that way?
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: I like tradition and it's the same day every year
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: and nobody has to think about it.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Well, the same could be said if it was the

• 29:33
  Speaker 8: have to go to work the next day. Most people.

  Speaker 4: But it's just a Saturday night vibe. I sense a
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: butt coming. Halloween is October 31st.
• 29:42
  Speaker 8: That is the day. And it is just so ingrained
• 29:45
  Speaker 8: in the holiday that it is October 31st. It ends
• 29:49
  Speaker 8: the month of October, which officially then marks essentially like
• 29:52
  Speaker 8: holiday season.
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: After that, I don't think it should move at all.

• 30:13
  Speaker 4: Kids want to go out and have fun.
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: So do adults.
• 30:16
  Speaker 7: Nobody wants to have to worry about like school and
