• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Unreal, my wife is awake and ordering things on Amazon. Hey, well, hi.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: We're on the air. It's Cubby Christine, producer Kristen. Morning,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Light FM. I'm just.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: How did you catch her, by the way?
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Because she just texted me and said, thank you for
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: letting me know. I just bought it. Are you familiar
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: with Amazon doing invites? If there's a product that's in
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: demand and you can't purchase it right away, you can
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: be asked to be invited. Then they'll send you an
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: email when you can order it. It's almost like you're waiting...
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: behind the rope at a club. Yeah. And you're waiting
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: for the door guy to open up the rope and
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: let you go in the club.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: But you better jump, right?
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So she told me, my wife said, because I
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: get all the Amazon emails, even though she's on the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: app ordering all the time, I get the emails.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Uh-oh, you know what's going on then.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: What's coming, yeah, you know, you know. So I got
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: an email about five days ago and she said, look
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: out for this. It says, invitation requested and received. We
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: processed your request. We send invites to qualified customers regularly.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: while supplies last. If you're invited to purchase, you have
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: an email with a link. It's valid for 72 hours. Now,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: we're trying to buy these Neetos. If you have a kid,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: you probably are aware of these. They're the hot thing
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: right now. It's basically just a squishy thing, but they're
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: all different kinds, Christy.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Almost like a stress ball.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: That's all it is.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Kind of that, yeah, smushes and stretches.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I don't get it. It's no big deal in my opinion,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: but all the kids love it. Naomi wants one. Miles
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: wants one. They have different colors, blah, blah, blah. So
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: a week ago, we got the invitation request received. That
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: was the email. And then at 4 a.m. this morning,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: I got the email saying, congratulations, you're invited. You now
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: have 72 hours from the time this email was sent
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: to complete the purchase. Oh, wow. So I forward that
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: email to Coco, my wife, at like 5.20 this morning.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Thinking she'll see this when she gets up.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Correct. 5.35, I get a text. Good morning. Thank you. Ordered.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: Yay.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Oh, wow. I thought she was sleeping until like right
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: about now, but apparently she was up.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: I think maybe like when it comes to shopping, we
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: sense something's going on.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Is that what it is?
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: We wake up and we can do it. We can
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: do it.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: It's like an alarm. It's like a superpower that we have.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know how long Amazon's been doing this,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: but I'm curious if you can text us at 44363.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I guess some things are just so in demand that
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: you can't get it at the moment. But hey, we'll
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: put you on the waiting list. And then you have
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: to be like, I was so fearful of missing this email.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Because she's like, keep an eye out for this email.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, if I miss this email, I'm in
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: the doghouse.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, there's clothing companies, right, where there's something I want.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: And it's like, sold out, we'll let you know when
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: it comes in. And you get an email. But it
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: doesn't feel, it's not quite like that. It doesn't feel
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: as urgent.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: This feels like she had to move.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: The only good thing is you do have 72 hours
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: from the time this email was sent, it says. But gosh,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: if I miss this email, and then all of a
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: sudden on Monday- She's like, you should have gotten it
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: by now.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: And I kind of, oh, man.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there it was. Crisis.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, he's good. You're good.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: You're covered. Going into the weekend. Pretty good so far. Yes.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: All right. Thanks for going well for me. How about you?
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: What are your big plans, Christine?
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm coming back tonight. Because you know me, I
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: can't get enough in New York City.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: You're escaping New York and then coming back.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Coming back to New York. And it is for a
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: good reason. Because there's a new musical. It just opened
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: last night, actually. I'm going to go see it with
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: my friend Ann Sayre. And it was Duncan Sheik's. Probably
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: the last musical that he worked on.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: No kidding.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Memoirs of Amorous Gentlemen. It's got an amazing cast, Sofia
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: and Caruso. I'm trying to look at reviews right now.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: I think it's going to be wonderful.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, we all... Look, remember Duncan Sheik? His
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: big hit, Barely Breathing? And then you think, okay, here's
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: a one-hit wonder. What did he do after that? He
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: did a lot after.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: A lot of, you know, Spring Awakening.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he just did some incredibly beautiful work. And it
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: feels like everyone who knew him... Just really, really loved him.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Great things to say about him and his talent and
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: the person that he was. So I'm really, really glad
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: we were able to get tickets to this.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: We'll get a full review on Monday from you. Okay.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Let's play Duncan Chic.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Go for it.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Barely Breathing. We lost Duncan a few weeks ago. We'll
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: play that next on Light FM.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Mort Covey and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Next on Light FM.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: You ever broken your finger in the middle of a
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: pillow fight?
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: No, not quite.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I'm reading some comments on a friend of mine's Facebook page.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: It's Light FM, Cubby, Christine, producer Kristen. And he posted,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: what's the dumbest injury you've ever given yourself? And somebody
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: said they broke their finger during a pillow fight. And
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I'm reading the comments and they are so funny.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. Okay.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: This one I can kind of relate to. It says,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I hiccup so hard I broke a rib. Two weeks later,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I sneezed so hard I broke another. Oh. I've done that.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: I have sneezed so hard where I thought a rib
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: was broken.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: But it ended up being a muscle. But I thought
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: the pain was so bad.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: It's incredible.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: I was like, it has to be a rib broken.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: It ended up being just a really tight muscle. Everything
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: tightened up after that. I was holding my breath to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: try to get rid of hiccups and passed out. Smashing
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: my head on the open dishwasher door. I pinched a
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: nerve scooping the litter box. Then laid on the floor
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: for two hours with my face six inches away from
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: the box until a roommate got home and held me up.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's awful.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: These are random comments. What's the dumbest injury you've ever
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: given yourself? Last winter, I went for a run and
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I was so focused on looking for icy spots that
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I slipped on a banana peel. I scratched my eyeball
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: putting on safety glasses.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, ouch.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Once again, I sneezed and pulled my back out and
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: pooped my pants at the same time.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Hard to ask for help at that point.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: What are you going to do there? So, I mean,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: you have to have a story, Christine. I thought of
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: you as a litter box.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: The door without banging into the frame do you know
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: what i mean like.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Crazy stuff like a couple years ago.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah i had sandals on.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: And you banged your toe oh oh really.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Bad oh there was blood it was it was bad
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: i think the door kind of closed it started to
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: close it was like the one day i was wearing
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: open toe shoes too.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: In the summertime oh i don't usually do.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: That i've done so many goofy things cubby i'm thinking
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: like because one person said they broke their finger Pillow fight?
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Having a pillow fight.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: I was trying to squeeze out the last bit of
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: toothpaste from a tube. And I squeezed so hard, I
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: dislocated my thumb. Don't. It's not worth it. Just let
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: it go. Not worth it.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: You were like, I know there's one more pinch.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Of toothpaste left.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, come on.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: And then I was like, uh-oh. Now I can't bend
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: my thumb. But I did. I was able to go,
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: you know, kind of like get it back. But no,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: not worth it.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: That gives me the willies, by the way.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Honestly, like, can't walk down the street. I'm the person
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: who trips over stuff. Or over nothing. You know when
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: you just walk and you trip and you're like, why
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: did that even, what was that?
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: That's just lack of sleep, man. We need more sleep.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I put the headphones on sometimes and I go, like,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: hit myself in the face rather than, they don't quite
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: make it to my ears.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: You know, just, ow.
• 6:59

• 7:37
  Speaker 2: It's gotten crazy.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I know.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: I did, like, last weekend, just kind of a simple
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: deli lunch, two sandwiches, one coffee, two glasses of water,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: and by the time I put the tip in, it
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: was 75 bucks. That's Manhattan.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: You know, at the airport over the weekend, we got
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: just a couple of breakfast sandwiches, two apple juices for
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: the kids, and a couple of coffees. Anyway, it ended
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: up being like $ 51 just for breakfast sandwiches. Right. I
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: happened to be on Twitter slash X last night and
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: the restaurant Ruth's Chris was trending.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we love that.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: And I love that. Yeah. I'm like, why is Ruth?
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's a treat for sure.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Like, why is it trending? And people are all
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: talking about this one person that posted a receipt and
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: the overall meal was three hundred and fifty nine dollars
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: for two people. And they were picking apart everything on
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: the receipt. Yeah. Like one filet mignon.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: $ 89. 95. Oh my goodness, really? I don't remember it being,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I remember it being maybe in the 40s.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was going to say maybe like $ 49 or something.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Because you and I used to go there a lot, Christine.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Right, well, like I said, that would be like special occasion, right?
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: If we were celebrating or something.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Cream spinach, $ 18. 95. People were talking about,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: are you kidding me? Cream spinach, $ 18.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: 95? Yeah, because you can make it at home.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Crab cakes were $ 32. 95. Anyway. Wow. Everything is expensive.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Does it even show the liquor on there? I
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: wonder if they had drinks because I've got a story
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: this morning about wine when you go to a restaurant.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Oh, wait.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: One Modelo draft, $ 15, and one red wine, $ 26. 95.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: One glass of wine.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: That's what it says.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: See, this is, okay, that ties into this. It's from
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Money Digest. They're doing a study about how much the
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: restaurants are marking up wine when we order dinner. 300%.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: For the bottle of wine at the restaurant. The glass. Oh,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: for the glass.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: They are marking it up 300%. The bottles, yes, they're
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: marked up the same, but they said as crazy expensive
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: as the bottles are, it's even more costly to get
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: it by the glass.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: That is unreal.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: And they said there's like kind of no way around
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: it because if you bring your own bottle, they give
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: you a corkage fee.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Well, I've done that too. I went out.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: It can't be as much though.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: It was $ 75 for a cork theater. No. Yes. $ 75?
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Back in spring when I had dinner with Sharon, our
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: old friend Sharon and Tom.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: That's crazy.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: It was $ 75 for the corking fee at the restaurant.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Can't you just like lean over and say, I can
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: do it. Thank you.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Pretty much.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Bring your own.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Bring your own opener. Yeah.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: And your own glasses.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Look, if you can afford it, great. I don't know.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I just feel like I'm so happy that we're not
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: in the dating world anymore because I couldn't take out
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: anybody anymore. It would really add up if you're going
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: out on a lot of dates. Yeah.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: But I mean, you know, like I said, I'm going
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: to the theater tonight. Ann and I want to go
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: get dinner before the show.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Well, it looks like Arby's. Yeah. Yeah. Is there an
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Arby's now? No. I'm going to see if she wants.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Chick-fil-A or White Castle.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Everything's expensive, like even all the fast food chains.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: I know everything has gone up, but wow. But yeah,
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: we always look at the drinks because we always wanted
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: to get like one fancy drink that you would. Never get,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: you know, or be able to make at home.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: And those, the fancy drinks are, you know, that could
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: be like $ 25.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Like a, like a Fufu Cosmo. Yeah. Yeah.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Something, not a Cosmo, but yes.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: You'd be a champagne person. I wonder how much a
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: glass of champagne is.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, that's what I like to get.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Lean champagne.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I'm going to. Really pay attention tonight. I just know
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: that any time we order a drink, it gets really expensive.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Yep, that's the way it is. Well, listen.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: Well, happy weekend.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: How do we be happy now?
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Still go out. No, no, no. You don't need a
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: drink either. You like coffee. Oh, wow. No. Okay, don't
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: want to take that away from you.

• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Texas saying, it's remarkable that Pope Leo's lung cancer was
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: picked up early before it had spread. Because once again,
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: as we know firsthand, this usually isn't found, unfortunately, until
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: it's late stage. He wasn't he wasn't somebody who would
• 13:10

  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Light FM, good morning. Happy Friday. Cubby, Christine, producer Kristen.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: It's Flashback Friday, and a couple of songs ago, we
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: played Janet Jackson, Miss You Much, from October 1989. It's
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: a great song. It's a great song. It sounded great.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I got to thinking about 1989, and I looked up
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: the price of things. I want you to tell me
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: if you can guess the price of items. Oh, wow.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: I know you're not going to get them exact, but
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: you can get kind of close. For example, so in 1989,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: a $ 100 bill had the same purchasing power as roughly
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: $ 271 today. Oh. So that kind of gives you perspective.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: You're going to be, you know, prices are multiplying by
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: about two and a half times. So I guess you
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: think about current prices today, what they were in 1989. Right.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: So if you get within 10 cents of this, I'll
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: be impressed. How much was a gallon of regular gas
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: today in 1989? On October 16th, 1989, ding, ding, ding,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: you pull up to the gas station. How much was
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: a gallon of regular gas?
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: Well, now I can't even use that math because the
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: gas is crazy right now. Was it like 99 cents
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: a gallon?
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: I'm going to give it to you. Between $ 1. 02 and $ 1. 12. Whoa, okay.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: And some spots were in the 90 cent range. How
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: much do you think a dozen eggs was?
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, my goodness.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: October 1989, a dozen eggs.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: 69 cents.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I almost gave it to you. 95 cents. Up to
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: a dollar. White bread. A pound of white bread. How
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: much do you think?
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: 1989.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: 250.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: 250.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: No, actually, it was only 67 cents. Oh, wow.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: It was 67 cents?
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: That's what it says.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: You're paying like $ 8 for a loaf of bread now.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: How much was a first class stamp at the post office?
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: You went in, you said, I want one stamp. It's
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: October 1989. How much were you paying?
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: 23 cents.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Wow. 25 cents.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Pretty good.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: All right, I got a couple more here.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: How much was a home? You're looking at a brand
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: new house. Now, I know. Whoa. There's an average.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: You've got low and high, but average. The average cost
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: of a new home in 89.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't even know where to begin.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I know it's tough. Because it could be a million.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: It could be 50,000. Okay, 50,000.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: I don't know, honestly.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: All right, go higher than that. It's between $ 100, 000.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Like $ 100, 000? A little bit higher.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: $ 120, 000? A little higher. $ 150, 000? Boom. There you go. Wow. $ 150, 000.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: And finally... We wish, right?
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Kristen's like nodding her head.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Like, please.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: What was the federal minimum wage? October 1989. I'm like... $ 3. 35.
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: Oh, my.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: You looked that up.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: I did not look it up. I did not look
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: it up.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: You Googled that.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: I did not, sir.

• 20:21
  Speaker 1: an hour. There you go. This week in 1989.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: How many hours would we have to work to... Well,
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: I guess it wasn't bad because the bread was $ 0. 67.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: And gas was $ 0.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: 95. Wow. Yeah, it's pretty incredible how times have changed.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they have.
