  Speaker 1: it right, kind.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Of watching what we're seriously spending on. I know times
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: are tough, and you know, keep getting stories like I
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: have a news story this morning how we're rethinking what
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: we're paying for because everything's getting so expensive. Ninety two
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: percent of people in this survey said they are slashing
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: things like streaming services, high end coffee and coffee make
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: and paper towels, using re usable cloth towels instead, Like
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: these are some of the things. Like as you follow
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: the economy, you see people aren't using these things.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: You know, it's tough and it's sad we have to
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: do it, but it's also smart. I mean we need
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: to kind of watch our heading. Well know, I know
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: everything's high and the grocery store is high, the gas
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: is high.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: Do you want to hang out with Eric?
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Am? Well?
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. So Friday, he's driving up to his gig
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: in Connecticut, right and he does a lot of driving
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: for his work, and I get it he's trying to
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: conserve gas as much as he can. But you know,
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: gas is over four dollars a gallon, so it's really
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: high right now. And we had to go up to
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: nod Hill I think that's rich Field, Connecticut from New Jersey.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Drums are loaded in the back of the car. I'm
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: going with him and he's not putting the air conditioning on.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Smart and okay heavy. It was Friday. Friday was like
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: he said, it's sixty seven degrees outside. I'm like, I
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: I understand that it's sixty seven degrees outside. It's eighty
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: something in the car, you know, the car like retains the.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Heat like a greenhouse. When that sun comes in, the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: car is always much hotter.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: So we're getting onto the Garden State Parkway and he
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: still has all the windows rolled down and I'm like, Eric,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: my hair, I can't do this, and he's like, do
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: you know how much gas prices are? And I said
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: you are being such a dad right now.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: No, he's being very you know, no money conscious.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: He was. He was being a dad. He was telling me,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: he's like, if we just all four windows are down
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: just a little bit, we'll get the cross ventilation. Your
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: hair will not exactly not. It was so uncomfortable in
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: that car. No, Like, I can't tell you how long
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: until he finds like, okay, put the AC on.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Well, the one thing he could have done, actually, he
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: could have brought all the windows down all at once, yes,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: got that cross ventilation and then put them up. Then
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: the AC wouldn't have to struggle to bring the temperature
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: down so quickly.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: That's basically what he did. We did. Okay, thank you
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: Dad Number two, the other dad I hang out with.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the question at four four three six three,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: what small things like your fiance Eric, do you do
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: to save money? Because I think these are all smart things.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I think you really need to kind of like you
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: mentioned streaming services. I go through what you're paying for
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: you might forget.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: And I think I'm doing that.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: You're paying for something you totally don't use.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: You just never use. I think there's a bunch of
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: stuff in the house Yeah, I'm really gonna have to
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: look at but AC and the cars is kind of important.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: You do want to breathe? I get four four three
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: six three on text Please more Covey.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: And Christine and the great music variety you expect next
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: on light them Right.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Let's say you're driving to work right now, and you
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: have to be at work at seven o'clock, but your
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: GPS currently says you're gonna be arriving at seven oh seven.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Oh that's the average, right that we feel stressed according
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: to a study. We're about to tell you here at
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: light FM. It's Cubby and Christine and there's more right.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: Well, yes, at what point do we te to freak
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: out that we're running late? When do we get stressed?
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: And seven minutes right is the exact mark where you're like,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: oh no.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: They did a survey with two thousand adults and they
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: believe early is on time, with one quarter admitting they
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: are obsessed with timekeeping and the survey anything past eight
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: minutes is classified as late, and sixty seven percent plan
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: ahead to ensure they are never running behind schedule. Yes,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: and forty six percent swear by being early, with a
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: quarter believing no amount of time is acceptable to be late.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: And this is for social events or work meetings, you
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: name it. If you're given a time, just give me
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: the time. And if you're running late for it, I
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: know I am like I will freak out.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: I will too. Yeah. I don't know how my wife
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: does it because she's always chill and she always makes
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: it on time.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Eric's the same way.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like she's like Ferris Bueller. It just works
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: out for right, like everything happens as falls in her lap.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: It's like they don't stress, so it's okay. So maybe
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: there's something to be said for our stressing. I don't know, but.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: I like to be early.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: I yeah, me too.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: It is to me the best part of it being early.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: So you're in the parking lot for a little you
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: hang on your phone, yep, catch up on some emails.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: You don't have to worry that you're running late. Yes,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: I would rather be there early than stress about getting
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: there just on time or having to find parking Like
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: I made it, but now I've got a park or
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: whatever it is.
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Wonder if us radio people have this time thing in
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: our head, because if we're running late, it's noticeable, Like
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: when I got in radio in nineteen eighty eight. I
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: was so nervous about being late because I knew if
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: I was late, you wouldn't hear me on the radio.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: So I couldn't lie and say, oh, I wasn't late.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Somebody's got to play that Michael Jackson song, you know.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So I just never wanted to be late.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: And I don't know what about you, like, you're the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: same way, Like you have an incredible work ethic. You're
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: always at this, You're always at the same spot every
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: day at the same time. Like you and me, what's
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: up with us? Are we heard? Yeah?
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so. I think I think radio like
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: definitely got into our brains because it is all about timing.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: We're all about timing out the song the you know.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: This commercial has to play, then this song has to
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: play then.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: So we're super super aware. I'm just somebody who can't, like,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: from my well being, I can't run late. Even if
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: people are wonderful and forgiving and understanding, which they usually are.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: I'm the first one to say, hey, I'm running, and
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: I will tell you eight minutes late, nine minutes late,
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: five minutes. You know how a lot of people I'm
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: running five minutes late and that means an hour. Yeah, no,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: I will say exactly precisely. I'm twelve minutes late. I'm
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: so sorry or whatever it is, but I can't handle it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: And here's my final question. So if the average is
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: seven minutes late, you start feeling stressed. When do you
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: start feeling stressed when you're like twenty minutes early.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, when I'm arriving just on time and I
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: haven't that seems like I haven't allowed time. Like I said,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: sometimes you've got a park I need to be early.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I plan for all all the things going wrong,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: like that's what I plan for normally, plan on traffic
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: that wasn't expected, something going on with my car. I
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: don't know why. I always buffer for extra things happening.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Hit us up at four four, three, six three. The
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: question is when do you start feeling stressed as far
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: as if you're running later or not. What do you
• 13:18

• 13:45
  Speaker 1: New York City also did not make the top ten.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: It may be famous for walking, but it didn't even
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: crack the top twenty actually for most walkable cities in
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the world this year, according to a new global ranking
• 13:57

  Speaker 1: city to make the list.

  Speaker 2: Yeah, of most walkable, the.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Most walkable cities, I mean.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: There's a kind of prizing.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: There's a ton of walkable cities in America.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Yep, we're not, but they're all over the world.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Here here are the top ten most walkable cities around
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: the world. Number ten Berlin, Germany, Number eight. I'm sorry,

  Speaker 1: why did I skip? Number nine? Number nine, London, England,

  Speaker 1: Number eight, Barcelona, Spain, number seven, Porto, Portugal, number six, Amsterdam, Netherlands,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: number five, Lisbon, Portugal, number four, Prague, Czech Republic three Budapest, Hungary,

  Speaker 1: two Madrid, Spain and number one Rome, Italy.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Well, also some gorgeous cities we're listing off here, and
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: you've you've walked around with your kids, no less like
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: you guys walk through Italy in the summer.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Correct, Yeah, that was brave. But what makes you walk
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: so far from what I remember? We did a lot
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: of walking. Yeah, and you had to walk wild to
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: get to the next whatever, mind you.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if they're basing it on. You
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: know how certain cities have areas that are closed off
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: to traffic, and it's a lot of time it's the
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: European cities because of the way they were built. Okay, right,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: so maybe they mean it that way. Yeah, they never
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: explained what like the lay of the land, like the terrain,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: like if you're not going uphill downhill, uphill downhill, maybe
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: it's walkable.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Again, you and I are guessing because they really never
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: clarify about what makes it a walkable city. But anyway,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: Rome is number one. You know you know what city
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: in America looks walkable but it's not Las Vegas.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, you think you're close to something.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: You're in your hotel, you go go to that hotel
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: over there. No, but it takes like thirty minutes.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah that yeah right, it's so far away, and I
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: know it has the reputation and it's true. Do not
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: try to walk in la oh forget. Don't even try,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: because when I first started going, I did that. I
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: thought I'm from New York. I can handle Okay, No,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: I could even cross the street here.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: What about your how about your thoughts on New Orleans?
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I know you've been there multiple times. You just went
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: there last week. I mean to me, that's fairly.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Walkable, that's really walking.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Why would that not be on the top ten.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: And we took the little street car, the Saint Charles
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: street car, which is like one of the I think
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: the oldest in the country. So if you can't walk,
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: you can go on that. And it's like ding ding
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: ding ding. You would love it. I was right up
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: front by the driver ding like that's letting you know.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: And then she has to like hit the brake and
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: switch tracks and it's like conk like every time.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: So can you isolate these sounds and playing back at
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: a later date, I can't wait?
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: So well, my point is that that was only a
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: dollar twenty five. Right, we were in the Garden District.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: You could take that little trolley car and then you're
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: back at the French Quarter and you can walk and
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: walk and walk. So it is spread out in a
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: way New Orleans, but then there's area that are highly walkable.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Right. Well there you go. Well, I don't know what
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: I have cunk in my head right now.
• 17:07

  Speaker 2: And all the worlds that open up to you absolutely
• 26:04
