Speaker 1 (00:03):
Wakem It gets my day going and makes me laugh
it Mac and Schmitty in the morning on Star one
on five point seven, Good morning, Welcome into Friday. Doesn't
that feel good?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Especially on a good Friday.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Yes, good Friday is upon us as we roll into
Easter weekend, and we're all just fingers crossing that the
weather cooperates with any of those Easter egg hunts today.
Look at it some thunderstorms. As a matter of fact,
on my way in, I could see quite a bit
of lightning off to the north as that was coming.
But really they see the rain and possible thunderstorms coming
(00:41):
later on this morning for a while.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Yeah, let's play it the storm to May, because I
think it's gonna be very dependent on where you're at.
There was quite a lightning storm south of Grand Rapids,
a couple of our coworkers coming in, and we did
get downgraded to just like a one. I'm not exactly
sure what that means. So again, storm teammates got it covered.
If you have outdoor.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Played the day, movies, music and all the gossip in one.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Place, it's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five
point seven.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Well, he is promising this to be an earth shattering podcast.
A list. Actor Terrence Howard has just announced he will
not be pulling any punches taking on big time Hollywood
media companies in his newest business venture. He's describing it
as a studio's nightmare and every actor's dream. He says
(01:29):
he recently started recording this podcast that will pull back
the curtain on the entertainment industry and does intend to
release it to the public in the very near future.
So what exactly does that mean? Well, Howard says he
plans and is already speaking to powerful figures behind the
scenes in Hollywood. Specifically, he's going to address his ongoing
(01:50):
legal battle with CIA, that is his talent agency he
alleges asked him to accept a lower salary while he
worked on Empire. He also says he has got serious
drama about some of the big head hon shows at
both Disney and Fox. He's going to dish about his
time on set with Empire, business betrayals, shady transactions, and
(02:15):
everything he has endured in his long career. He plans
to show fans how the industry really operates, and he
doesn't care who he upsets.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Terrece Howard is one interesting guy. He's done a bunch
of podcasts about like physics and theoretical computations that have
been going on and debated for centuries among scientists, and
saying that he solved these math problems. And I can't
tell whether this guy is an absolute genius or just
really good at faking it, because it's pretty incredible.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
He is not so far planning to have any major
celebs on. He says he's not going to drag celebrities
into this. He just really wants to call out kind
of the old boys club of Hollywood, do it. Katy
Perry is really regretting her Blue Origin flight, at least
if you ask friends and sources close to the singer.
(03:07):
That Blue Origin space mission that took off back on
Monday with the all women crew has faced its fair
share of backlash. Now, remember some of the celebs aboard
included Katy Perry and Gail King, as well as fiance
A founder Jeff Bezos Lauren Sanchez. But people have been
talking about the insane price tag, the CO two emissions,
(03:28):
the fact that these women are like, we're saving the
Earth when they're not. Most recently, Katie's been told she
shouldn't call herself an astronaut. Pretty much everyone calling it
tone deaf and embarrassing. It is really been hard on Katie,
according to these sources. They're saying she is really really
bummed about how public of a spectacle she made of it.
(03:50):
Shouldn't have kissed the ground when she got off of
the capsule, shouldn't have held up the flower while floating
in space. She's also really regretting that super weird post
flight interview where she said she felt very connected to
love and love was all around us and love was
what we needed and she loves the world. Yeah, it
doesn't sound like it's a really positive experience post mission.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
I don't know. Maybe the air was just extremely light
up there. Maybe they didn't have the ochaitec Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah, Well, speaking of that, Wendy's has touched a nerve.
Have you been kind of following this back and forth?
So back on Monday, the site pop Crave posted a
picture on Twitter of Katy Perry and said simply, Katy
Perry has returned from space. Well, the official Wendy's account
popped into the comments and said, can we send her back? Yeah?
(04:41):
Now we know Wendy's has had some expert trolling in
the past up, but a lot of people were like, oh,
that's not really classy, that's kind of a cheap shot.
Some fans going after the brand who refused to walk
it back. In fact, yesterday they made an official statement
to People magazine saying, we always bring a little spice
(05:01):
to our socials. But Wendy says a ton of respect
for Katie Perry and her out of this world talent,
but no, we're not apologizing.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Good like that's just fun tongue in cheek. I'd love
when a brand is not afraid to stack their neck
out just a little bit to have a little.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Mama Salita Bergers are delicious. All of your celeb scoop
at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
It's telling a fine point seven. Its Mack and Schmidty.
Feeling good on a Friday. It's just easier to do.
But if you're a Pistons fan, you gotta be feeling
good because you're about to see your team in playoff action.
And not only is that a rarity that you haven't
seen in several years, but it's history. Because the Detroit Pistons,
who hit rock bottom basically last season, had the worst
(05:43):
record in the league for the second season a row.
They also had the longest single season losing streak in
the history of the NBA. Not good in a one
year now though, after winning just fourteen games well, the
Cade cutting Ham led Pistons were forty four and thirty
eight this season, becoming the first NBA franchise to triple
(06:05):
its total number of wins from the previous year in
a regular season. Ever, it had never been done before.
This is a absolutely unprecedented turnaround for a team, and
as I mentioned, Cade Cunningham the Detroit Pistons twenty twenty
two number one pick. Talking to ESPN, he says, it's
all about the culture there Detroit.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Definitely just a culture that we've established. Now we talk
about all the time, like how it's crazy that we
bond the way that we do.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Don't test me, I'm sizzlingling.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Oh yes, So many different personalities on the team, but
everybody has a chip on their shoulder. Like having a
group that has that type of edge throughout. I think
that's what makes us a different group and it kind
of separates us from the pet Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
The Pistons now head into the playoffs for the first
time in twenty nineteen. But they're looking to erase some
other history too. They actually got swept in the first
round of the playoffs in twenty nineteen, and got swept
the time before that in twenty six which means the
Pistons have not won a playoff game. Get this schmitty
since May twenty sixth of two thousand and eight, two
(07:08):
thousand and eight. It has been seventeen years. Piston's looking
to get that monkey off their back, though. Take it
on the New York Knicks Saturday night, six pm. Go Pistons.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
A quicksand like hole at a Lake, Michigan beach turned
almost deadly and then into a romance. I love this story.
Mitchell O'Brien is his name. He was hunting for pretty
blue rocks along the shoreline at Van's Beach in Leland
when his left foot went straight down into lu sand.
(07:40):
We've all been on the beach, we felt that right,
except Mitchell went all the way past his waist. He
struggled for fifteen minutes, sinking further and further before thankfully
a friend he was with, Breezeka, called nine to one
one for help. It was while talking to dispatchers to
save Mitchell. They both realized something they've been keeping a
(08:02):
secret for a very long time.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
I referred to her as my girlfriend that's trying to
call as well.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
At the exact same time, she got through to another
operator and said, my boyfriend is stuck in the sand.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
Two years of this guy being my best friend and
just trying to hide everything how I felt, and then
he tried to die on me and becomes my boyfriend
in the middle of it.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Luckily Leland Township Fire and Rescue were on scene within minutes.
They were able to free O'Brien from that sand, and
the two have recently updated their relationship status on social media.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
I'll take me a little quick, Sand.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I think that's so sweet.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
That is very cool. Now I'm feeling good covin at
you a couple times a day. I always wanted to
share something awesome with you. Let's do it again later
on this morning at nine twenty here on Star.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Movies, Music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
It's the Celebrity Scoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
All right, well, it seems like the two of them
are pretty Amica ben af flag popping off with some
un United raw thoughts about now ex wife Jennifer Lopez
while at his accountant Too Premiere, and he could not
say enough kind things, especially praising j LO for her
ongoing relationship with his kids.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
For the record, like Jennifer Lope spectacular great to my kids,
great ongoing relationship them. I love her kids, They're wonderful.
She's enormously important, tremendous person of a lot of integrity
who I door and I'm grateful to. I'm thrilled that
kids are here with me. And you know that's the
kind of thing, like the relationships that you could have
(09:38):
with children, like that's so joy.
Speaker 7 (09:40):
Of my life.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
He went on to tell Entertainment Tonight that truly she
is working very hard to be that present person still.
When the host said, you're a great daddy, said, I'm
just trying to set a really great example of being
able to still be a good person with those around you,
especially very kind.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
You know, I know he was singing the praises at
j Lo. But do you think Ben Affleck seems like
a pretty great ax right between the two. Jennifer firsts
a come a.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Long way and done some really good things in his life. Wow,
Chloe Kardashian says her kids will not be coming over
for a sleepover anytime soon. Newest episode of our Chloe
Kardashian podcast had Dana White on as a guest, and
the two of them talked about some very strict rules
they hold as parents. The biggest one sleepovers. I don't
(10:32):
let my kids sleep anywhere. I'm very strict about it.
Times are different, so I won't let my daughter or
my son who's two and a half, but they're not
allowed to have sleepovers just because I'm one of those
type of I just I think too much. I've watched
Dateline exactly. You said, times are very different, and Dana
(10:52):
actually talking about his own childhood and how his parents
were very similar in that way, and he said, listen,
we just grew up a little faster than most knowing
what actually goes on in the world, you know, which
will terrify any parent listening with doubt. And finally, oh man,
oh man, could we honestly be getting a sequel to
The Big Lebowski. Jeff Bridges has revealed this very interesting
(11:17):
idea about whether or not brothers Joel and Ethan Cohen,
who of course brought out the cult classic back in
nineteen ninety eight, wouldever look at a sequel. In fact,
it's something him and Julianne Moore talk about quite a bit.
This was during an evening with the Dude in La
The other night.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Dude would have longer to meet the little dude, Julian
Coorse of coorse Man Julian and I who would have.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Fantasize about that time we even see Joe say gee,
it's all set up for a sequel, you know.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
But no, I don't think the brothers are gonna do that.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I don't think that's their I will say, they surprise
us all the time.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
You know, if they called me up and say, hey,
let's do it again, I'd say absolutely. He'd say absolutely.
If you don't know it, The Big Lebowski is the
entire foundation of my marriage. So this would be a really,
really big deal if they did indeed decide to do
a Big Lebowski sequel.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
You know, Smitty, all I have to say to that.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Is, yeah, well, you know, that's just like.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Your opinion.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Man, That rug really tied the room together. All of
your Celebscoop at West Michigan start off at good.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Moving to you. It's Mac and spitty and yeah, the
joys of other people's actions making you feel ridiculously old
hits all the time.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
It's the words, though, I think it's the word that
comes out where you go. Oh, I couldn't possibly be
called that. I'm not that old. So last night it
was my son's spring concert and we're in Rockford and
it was at the high school, which I had never
actually been to or inside of. And it's massive, if
you know this, And there's just a ton of different
(13:12):
parking lots and like some of them were closed off.
I know they had sports practices last night. So I'm
driving around. I'm meeting Chris and the kids because we
literally went from school to swim lessons. They put their
clothes on in the locker room, and then I was
bringing them dinner to eat in the parking lot. That
was the kind of day we had yesterday. So I'm
driving around trying to figure out how to get into
the parking lot where we were going to meet. Everything's
(13:34):
fenced off, everything's closed. I'm feeling like a total senior citizen.
I'm like, I cannot, I don't know what I'm doing.
I've circled the school like three times. People are noticing
I'm embarrassed, and so I'm like, oh, I'm gonna have
to ask for directions. That's fine, somebody will be able
to help me. And there's this very very sweet girl
obviously headed to lacrosse practice, and so I kind of
(13:55):
pulled over and I put my window down. I said, hey,
excuse me.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
She came over.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
She's very kind. I said, I feel so dung. I
am trying to get to that parking lot, like right
in front of the main entrance to the school's auditorium,
but all of these are gated off. She goes, oh, yeah,
no problem, she said, actually, you know, take this straight down,
take a leftier you'll circle around and you'll see the
opening where you can get into that lot. I said,
oh my gosh, thank you so much. She goes, no problem, ma'am, ma'am.
(14:21):
I have never been called ma'am.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
No I have.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
This is the first time babysitters lovely people at a restaurant,
and when survey, I've never been called ma'am. I would
take miss because I understand like she was trying to
be respectful. Ma'am. I about keeled over. It has bothered
me so much. I've been thinking about it all night
till this moment right now.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
I've never called you ma'am. I feel like I even
called young girls man like our two professionals do that. No,
it's when I say casually. It's like what you said
when they do something nice. You were running fair, Thanks,
thank you, ma'am. I say, I call everybody sir all
the time.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Sure is different than ma'am. Let me give you a
heads up. They hate that you do that. They won't
say it to your face, but they cannot see it.
I don't think there is any woman that likes being
called ma'am if you are not living in like the
South and it's all very cute, see old school. I
don't think anyone likes being called ma'am.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Do you think when you get older, when your kids
are adults and they start maybe wanting to have kids
of their own, are you gonna be that grandma who's like,
you can't call me grandma?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I'm Grandma's fine. Ma'am is the worst. I only use
it when I'm talking to my four year old daughter
and she's doing something sassy, and I go, ma'am, can
we fix our face? Otherwise I guarantee those poor promotional
interns that are twenty one years old leave the studio
going if you would just stop calling me ma'am, that
(15:48):
would be real great. Is there a word that is
as triggering to you? Four five, eight, one oh five seven.
I've clearly got a deep rooted hatred of ma'am.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Honestly, I there's no words that would get me. I
don't feel like but I did have one of the
kids on my baseball team give me the okay boomer response.
I'm like, I'm like, bo what you do? Dad's a boomer?
What are you talking about? I guess it's all the
same when you're only ten.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I guess six one six, four five eight, one oh
five seven. What's the triggering word for you? I clearly
did not handle ma'am very well.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Mack and Schmidty in the Morning on Star one oh
five point seven.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Time Spilling Tea Take time spill the too, sweetheart.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
We have no problem sharing your drama each and every week.
It is tea time, So make sure you send us
your message is you can hit us up anonymously. All
right at West Michigan Star, what's going on.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
As there's some serious drama here and actually I'm really surprised.
Our listeners are very split on what to do here.
My brother's dealing with possible drama at our parents this weekend.
It's obviously Eastern. We all go to their house to celebrate.
T other thinks it's a fun idea to officially introduce
his new girlfriend to them while we're all together for
(17:05):
the holiday. I love her, but she's definitely edgier than
other women, he's stated before, tattoos, some piercings. It's probably
going to catch my parents a bit off guard. They
are pretty strict, and my brother thinks he should warn
his girlfriend. But wouldn't that upset you if you were her?
I actually have no idea how my parents are going
(17:26):
to react, So I told him to bail on the
weekend and do it when it's way less intense.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I think that My first reaction when I read her emails, like, ooh,
warning your girlfriend, that's a bold movie.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I feel like that's the wrong thing because I feel
like it puts a negative connotation on your parents. And
I feel like, also, if you were trying to give
your even your parents a heads up to be a
negative connotation about your girlfriend, I think you just let
this one play out. It sounds like a fun and
entertaining easter to me.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Oh, is that what you call stress and terrible times?
Speaker 1 (17:57):
It's stressful as your girlfriend that okay?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Well you you have always known people to introduce relationships
to families, and families are like, oh do you love them?
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Then?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Because our listeners are very back and forth on this,
April says, hmm, holidays are already filled with added stress
and pressure. If she's someone you think will be around
for a while, I guess no reason to wait. She
needs to get used to the crazy. Stacy says. Your
brother's decision, whatever he wants to do. But there's a
lot of tough people that are like, oh, never do
(18:29):
this at a family holiday. Never, Teresa, a family holiday,
never the best time. Family holidays aren't always easy anyway,
do not do it right now?
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Hi, See, I feel like I wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I wouldn't do it.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Clearly, this guy likes a little spice of life. Schmitty.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I guess lay the groundwork, dude. Send some snapchat pictures,
like you know in your family group thread, be like
you know, oh, I've been hanging out with so and so.
You know, lay the groundwork, because if they are really
strict pairs and the worst possible thing is they have
a reaction like oh, or say something about it, and
that takes forever. Maybe I feel like to recover from.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Maybe meet up at church for the first time, maybe
like start the whole journey right there at church.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
All right, Bryson left us a talk back inside our
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 7 (19:17):
Yeah, that's a tough one. I've definitely had parents that
would like judge you like that, So I guess you
just have to be open about it and kind of
be like, hey, you know, my parents are kind of conservative,
and you know they're not really with that sort of era.
Get maybe tone it down, you know, just when you're
around them, you know, just the smooth things over.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
I still think tone it down it going over well either,
you know, a few mimosas and this will get interesting.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
What do you think some drama at Easter with the
parents meeting the new girlfriend. Is this even a good
idea to do at a family holiday? You can chime
in in the comments. Head to our Facebook at West
Michigan Star.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
That's where you can also share your drama with us
each and every week tea time every Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
CDs music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Well, new details are emerging following the arrest of former
child star Haley Joel Osmon, who was arrested at Mammoth
Mountain in California earlier this week on suspicion of intoxication
and being under the influence of a controlled substance. Some
bodycam footage has now been released, actually showing him attempting
(20:34):
to get on a chairlift without a snowboard. He's being
very volatile, being very loud. That's when ski patrol and
officers were first called to the scene. Now we're learning
that he may have dropped some offensive language, including a
racial slur, at cops trying to arrest him at this
ski resort. Law enforcement sources say the arresting officer reported
(20:57):
Haley was belligerent taking him into custom he said. The
officer claimed Haley hurled the K word at him, the
Jewish slur, but then oddly enough, also labeled him a Nazi.
Source to say the police interaction was a really, really
bad moment for Haley, and in fact, all of that
body cam footage is expected to be released. He was
(21:20):
officially booked on intoxication and controlled substance, which we're hearing
was cocaine.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
I mean the fact that it's all on video too
is absolutely awful news for this guy. You know, he
struggled with some substance abuse stuff in the past.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
You wait to see it because he was doing so
well and you just wonder like, oh no, did we
fall off the wagon? And this is just going to
be so harmful rapper Acon, you know it my millennial girlies,
you remember this from college? How would you feel if
it had a bit of a honky tonk vibe to it?
That's right. Acon is planning to re record his entire
(22:02):
discography as country music. He was out signing autographs in
New York this week when he said he's actually been
working on this for the past five years and we
will be hearing it soon.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
I'm actually redoing my whole catalog and country.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Knowlge this play.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
So what gave me the idea?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Like this idea for years ahead?
Speaker 8 (22:26):
Again, it's been emotion for the last but starting next month,
you'll start seeing all the releases.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Next month he's releasing all the new releases, so I'm
not sure who might be a part of this. Obviously,
people are stoked that maybe he would work with the
likes of a Jelly Roll, a Morgan wall In something
like that. But you're gonna get country econ.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Honestly, as soon as you said it, I go, Okay,
here comes here comes jelly Roll Collaborations. Who hasn't Roll
collaborative five years.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
He's been working on this though, so I'm pretty excited
to hear it. Finally, there's a huge event going on
in Japan this week, Star Wars Celebration, and a ton
of announcements were made yesterday, including the newest celebrity joining
the Star Wars universe. And if you've heard the rumors
(23:17):
about Ryan Gosling, that rumor.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Is one hundred percent true.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Is Ryan Gosling is joining the Star Wars universe. He
came out on stage in Japan last night to absolute
thunderous roar of eruption. It was so cool. He is
going to be a part of Star Wars star Fighter.
It is the latest movie to be announced. It hits
theatre's Memorial Day weekend of twenty twenty seven. It will
(23:46):
take place approximately five years after Star Wars. The Rise
of Skywalker, and Gosling will play a brand new character,
teased by his appearance on stage. My favorite part of
this entire story, the one men's section on this video
is fantastic with a bunch of people typing, he's just
Ken Noby uh. It's really great. There were a couple
(24:11):
of other huge announcements, including never before seen trailers for
the New and Or season on Disney Plus. Got it

Speaker 7 (25:23):
Is their top answer by eight am?
Speaker 1 (25:26):
What made you say eight am? Why are you thinking eight?
Speaker 8 (25:30):
It's just what it's like around the same time the
kids wake up for school, or a little bit earlier.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
You know, I was wondering if people would go later.
I was never allowed to go into the chocolate until
after church, so it was always like ten or eleven
before I could get into any of the candy. But
you know what, sometimes you gotta eat the candy before
you go to church. Maybe because eight am was the
top answer, when to go Sarah, it was eight, followed
by ten, then twelve and nine am, rounding out those
(25:59):
top four answers, and you are going into Easter weekend
knowing you got some awesome comedy plans for this fall.
Speaker 7 (26:05):
That's amazing.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
You're so welcome, Gabriel Iglecias as well as Jeff Dunham
together Alligan County Fair this September. You want some tickets,
we got them for you over at West Michigan Star
dot com. If you didn't win this week, but congratulations
to all of our winners and happy Easter, Sarah.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Package Schmidty. And we all get super excited when something
that we're passionate about becomes available. But the problem is
is that if you're passionate about it, there's a decent
chance that a lot of other people are too, and
it makes it very difficult to get tickets to things sometimes,
or in my case, it made it impossible for me
to live my burger dreams. Smider. Yesterday, I spent way
(26:46):
too much time attempting to get Red Robbin's Burger of
the Month club discounts because Red Robin, if I didn't
I didn't know this beforehand. First off, May is National
Burger Month, and so Red Robin was doing this thing
that I happened to see yesterday in the morning that
said for twenty dollars they are going to be selling
(27:09):
a burger pass for the entire month of May. That
for that one to twenty dollars purchase, you get a
burger and an unlimited side every single day for the
month of May. Oh that's like four hundred and fifty
dollars worth of saving.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
I did, as every parent does.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I had to do the math and Schmitty, this is
the best part. I have never, one time in my
entire life waited online to buy something the moment it
went on sale. I've never done it with tickets. I've
never done it with a phone or anything else like that.
I have never done it until yesterday, Schmitty. I spent
no less than thirty minutes hitting refresh on my phone
(27:46):
as well as on the computer trying to get the
twenty dollars Burger card for red Robin and the like.
There was a limited amount, a limited amount. The website
crashed the second that it happened, so many people tried
to buy them all at once. About ten minutes in,
they put up a warning saying, hey, our website is
crashed because of the demand. But keep trying because there's
(28:07):
still cards available. I even got to the point where
I was on the purchase screen, but I just had
one of those spinny wheels you had.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
The Swiftie fifty.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
I almost got to live the dream of eating a
burger every single day for an entire month, Smitty, and
I was here for I was ready for it, Smitty.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
I don't think I've ever done something like that, never
in your life. Oh, I'm so sorry. I'd rather nap
this terrible person.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Get this one. So Christy Tate mcray and Van and
Marina coming later this year. She said she was online
twenty five thousand people out of her in the queue.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Unsuccessful because when she added that Van Andels show, people
got into that and they were like, oh man.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Hey, Christy, just so you know, right here on Star
gonna be hooking you up with those tickets at some
point before that, so be listening. But Tony, listen to
this Phil Collins Palace of Auburn Hills, hopeing a surprise
his wife. This is back in the day. So he
literally went to the box office, waited outside huge lound
of people that were there for some RV show. So
they let him go in front and right at ten
(29:05):
am she got it. Voi la, he says, front Row Center.
His wife was able to give Phil Collins a rose.
He said. This was about nineteen ninety or nineteen ninety one,
before all the fancy.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Ticket buydou I would totally camp out for tickets. You
mean it the most interesting people you got.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
You got to give Phil Collins a rose? That would
make it worth it. I mean, is it as good
as burgers every day for an entire month? I mean
not quite, but close. Well, let's dive into something positive
to stick with you to the rest of your day
and into your Easter weekend. It's feeling good here on
Style one A five point seven. What's up?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Well, Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood is making headlines for a
very different reason today. Surprising his favorite high school security
guard with a brand new car, Underwood went back to
his alma mater, Belleville High School, to sit down and
chat with security guard Mike Darty for an interview. That's
all Darty thought. It was just interview where the two
(30:01):
talk about how much they turned out to meet each other,
how much they mean to each other, and how much
they will mean to each other going forward, He had
no idea he was going to have the keys handed
over to a brand new vehicle.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Check out the moment show car to drive for this segment.
Speaker 8 (30:18):
This is your car gag for real. This is.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Just absolute astonishment at being gifted a brand new car.
As for Underwood, it was a no brainer. He said
that Mike is the guy. He shows up for everyone
in his life.
Speaker 8 (30:36):
Honestly, you know, he's been a great person to all
of the athletes at Beillville. He just cheats everybody like
they are regular people in his earths. And I couldn't
think of nobody. O there there, Mike, you know, because
of what do you hit me with the first time
I ever met him, you know, it was just an
experience that you know, you could even ask for, you know,
just going across somebody that means nothing but right bite.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Underwood teamed up with Feldman Automotive for the big surprise, saying,
Mike shows up everybody, anybody, no matter what they do,
no matter who they are. This is the example of
an incredible human. The video's pretty sweet. West Michigan Star dot.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Com All right, Schmidty, this is just wild. As we
approach graduation season, across the country in San Bernardino, California,
there's a graduate who's a little bit different than her
peers because she is only ten years old but graduating college.
Her name is Alisa Perellas, and she's set to graduate
next month from Crafton Hills College in San Bernardino, but
(31:33):
not one, but two degrees. She began taking college level
classes at age eight, gonna be the youngest student to
ever graduate from the college. Her final GPA is basically
a four point zero as well, and she describes the
experience very fun, compares it to playing outside or riding
a bike, but instead she is working very hard at
(31:53):
some pretty intense different subjects too. Check this out. If
she'd actually stay one more semester, she'd get two more
degrees in computer science and physics. As it is, she'll
be graduating already with degrees and pursues to and plans
to pursue a career in artificial intelligence technology. I'm sorry, smart,
(32:13):
it's crazy to me that there are even human beings
out there like this, ten years old and getting four
points in colleges with multiple degrees in i mean just
barely in double digits, just absolutely wild. But also at
the same time, just pretty incredible, feeling good. Always want
to share amazing things out there, just like that, or
people doing incredible things. We do it for you each
(32:34):
and every morning, six forty five and nine to twenty
right here on Star Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekdays,
starting at six am on Star one oh five point
seven
Wakem It gets my day going and makes me laugh
it Mac and Schmitty in the morning on Star one
on five point seven, Good morning, Welcome into Friday. Doesn't
that feel good?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Especially on a good Friday.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Yes, good Friday is upon us as we roll into
Easter weekend, and we're all just fingers crossing that the
weather cooperates with any of those Easter egg hunts today.
Look at it some thunderstorms. As a matter of fact,
on my way in, I could see quite a bit
of lightning off to the north as that was coming.
But really they see the rain and possible thunderstorms coming
(00:41):
later on this morning for a while.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Yeah, let's play it the storm to May, because I
think it's gonna be very dependent on where you're at.
There was quite a lightning storm south of Grand Rapids,
a couple of our coworkers coming in, and we did
get downgraded to just like a one. I'm not exactly
sure what that means. So again, storm teammates got it covered.
If you have outdoor.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Played the day, movies, music and all the gossip in one.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Place, it's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five
point seven.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Well, he is promising this to be an earth shattering podcast.
A list. Actor Terrence Howard has just announced he will
not be pulling any punches taking on big time Hollywood
media companies in his newest business venture. He's describing it
as a studio's nightmare and every actor's dream. He says
(01:29):
he recently started recording this podcast that will pull back
the curtain on the entertainment industry and does intend to
release it to the public in the very near future.
So what exactly does that mean? Well, Howard says he
plans and is already speaking to powerful figures behind the
scenes in Hollywood. Specifically, he's going to address his ongoing
(01:50):
legal battle with CIA, that is his talent agency he
alleges asked him to accept a lower salary while he
worked on Empire. He also says he has got serious
drama about some of the big head hon shows at
both Disney and Fox. He's going to dish about his
time on set with Empire, business betrayals, shady transactions, and
(02:15):
everything he has endured in his long career. He plans
to show fans how the industry really operates, and he
doesn't care who he upsets.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Terrece Howard is one interesting guy. He's done a bunch
of podcasts about like physics and theoretical computations that have
been going on and debated for centuries among scientists, and
saying that he solved these math problems. And I can't
tell whether this guy is an absolute genius or just
really good at faking it, because it's pretty incredible.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
He is not so far planning to have any major
celebs on. He says he's not going to drag celebrities
into this. He just really wants to call out kind
of the old boys club of Hollywood, do it. Katy
Perry is really regretting her Blue Origin flight, at least
if you ask friends and sources close to the singer.
(03:07):
That Blue Origin space mission that took off back on
Monday with the all women crew has faced its fair
share of backlash. Now, remember some of the celebs aboard
included Katy Perry and Gail King, as well as fiance
A founder Jeff Bezos Lauren Sanchez. But people have been
talking about the insane price tag, the CO two emissions,
(03:28):
the fact that these women are like, we're saving the
Earth when they're not. Most recently, Katie's been told she
shouldn't call herself an astronaut. Pretty much everyone calling it
tone deaf and embarrassing. It is really been hard on Katie,
according to these sources. They're saying she is really really
bummed about how public of a spectacle she made of it.
(03:50):
Shouldn't have kissed the ground when she got off of
the capsule, shouldn't have held up the flower while floating
in space. She's also really regretting that super weird post
flight interview where she said she felt very connected to
love and love was all around us and love was
what we needed and she loves the world. Yeah, it
doesn't sound like it's a really positive experience post mission.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
I don't know. Maybe the air was just extremely light
up there. Maybe they didn't have the ochaitec Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yeah, Well, speaking of that, Wendy's has touched a nerve.
Have you been kind of following this back and forth?
So back on Monday, the site pop Crave posted a
picture on Twitter of Katy Perry and said simply, Katy
Perry has returned from space. Well, the official Wendy's account
popped into the comments and said, can we send her back? Yeah?
(04:41):
Now we know Wendy's has had some expert trolling in
the past up, but a lot of people were like, oh,
that's not really classy, that's kind of a cheap shot.
Some fans going after the brand who refused to walk
it back. In fact, yesterday they made an official statement
to People magazine saying, we always bring a little spice
(05:01):
to our socials. But Wendy says a ton of respect
for Katie Perry and her out of this world talent,
but no, we're not apologizing.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Good like that's just fun tongue in cheek. I'd love
when a brand is not afraid to stack their neck
out just a little bit to have a little.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Mama Salita Bergers are delicious. All of your celeb scoop
at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
It's telling a fine point seven. Its Mack and Schmidty.
Feeling good on a Friday. It's just easier to do.
But if you're a Pistons fan, you gotta be feeling
good because you're about to see your team in playoff action.
And not only is that a rarity that you haven't
seen in several years, but it's history. Because the Detroit Pistons,
who hit rock bottom basically last season, had the worst
(05:43):
record in the league for the second season a row.
They also had the longest single season losing streak in
the history of the NBA. Not good in a one
year now though, after winning just fourteen games well, the
Cade cutting Ham led Pistons were forty four and thirty
eight this season, becoming the first NBA franchise to triple
(06:05):
its total number of wins from the previous year in
a regular season. Ever, it had never been done before.
This is a absolutely unprecedented turnaround for a team, and
as I mentioned, Cade Cunningham the Detroit Pistons twenty twenty
two number one pick. Talking to ESPN, he says, it's
all about the culture there Detroit.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Definitely just a culture that we've established. Now we talk
about all the time, like how it's crazy that we
bond the way that we do.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Don't test me, I'm sizzlingling.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Oh yes, So many different personalities on the team, but
everybody has a chip on their shoulder. Like having a
group that has that type of edge throughout. I think
that's what makes us a different group and it kind
of separates us from the pet Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
The Pistons now head into the playoffs for the first
time in twenty nineteen. But they're looking to erase some
other history too. They actually got swept in the first
round of the playoffs in twenty nineteen, and got swept
the time before that in twenty six which means the
Pistons have not won a playoff game. Get this schmitty
since May twenty sixth of two thousand and eight, two
(07:08):
thousand and eight. It has been seventeen years. Piston's looking
to get that monkey off their back, though. Take it
on the New York Knicks Saturday night, six pm. Go Pistons.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
A quicksand like hole at a Lake, Michigan beach turned
almost deadly and then into a romance. I love this story.
Mitchell O'Brien is his name. He was hunting for pretty
blue rocks along the shoreline at Van's Beach in Leland
when his left foot went straight down into lu sand.
(07:40):
We've all been on the beach, we felt that right,
except Mitchell went all the way past his waist. He
struggled for fifteen minutes, sinking further and further before thankfully
a friend he was with, Breezeka, called nine to one
one for help. It was while talking to dispatchers to
save Mitchell. They both realized something they've been keeping a
(08:02):
secret for a very long time.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
I referred to her as my girlfriend that's trying to
call as well.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
At the exact same time, she got through to another
operator and said, my boyfriend is stuck in the sand.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
Two years of this guy being my best friend and
just trying to hide everything how I felt, and then
he tried to die on me and becomes my boyfriend
in the middle of it.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Luckily Leland Township Fire and Rescue were on scene within minutes.
They were able to free O'Brien from that sand, and
the two have recently updated their relationship status on social media.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
I'll take me a little quick, Sand.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I think that's so sweet.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
That is very cool. Now I'm feeling good covin at
you a couple times a day. I always wanted to
share something awesome with you. Let's do it again later
on this morning at nine twenty here on Star.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Movies, Music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
It's the Celebrity Scoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
All right, well, it seems like the two of them
are pretty Amica ben af flag popping off with some
un United raw thoughts about now ex wife Jennifer Lopez
while at his accountant Too Premiere, and he could not
say enough kind things, especially praising j LO for her
ongoing relationship with his kids.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
For the record, like Jennifer Lope spectacular great to my kids,
great ongoing relationship them. I love her kids, They're wonderful.
She's enormously important, tremendous person of a lot of integrity
who I door and I'm grateful to. I'm thrilled that
kids are here with me. And you know that's the
kind of thing, like the relationships that you could have
(09:38):
with children, like that's so joy.
Speaker 7 (09:40):
Of my life.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
He went on to tell Entertainment Tonight that truly she
is working very hard to be that present person still.
When the host said, you're a great daddy, said, I'm
just trying to set a really great example of being
able to still be a good person with those around you,
especially very kind.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
You know, I know he was singing the praises at
j Lo. But do you think Ben Affleck seems like
a pretty great ax right between the two. Jennifer firsts
a come a.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Long way and done some really good things in his life. Wow,
Chloe Kardashian says her kids will not be coming over
for a sleepover anytime soon. Newest episode of our Chloe
Kardashian podcast had Dana White on as a guest, and
the two of them talked about some very strict rules
they hold as parents. The biggest one sleepovers. I don't
(10:32):
let my kids sleep anywhere. I'm very strict about it.
Times are different, so I won't let my daughter or
my son who's two and a half, but they're not
allowed to have sleepovers just because I'm one of those
type of I just I think too much. I've watched
Dateline exactly. You said, times are very different, and Dana
(10:52):
actually talking about his own childhood and how his parents
were very similar in that way, and he said, listen,
we just grew up a little faster than most knowing
what actually goes on in the world, you know, which
will terrify any parent listening with doubt. And finally, oh man,
oh man, could we honestly be getting a sequel to
The Big Lebowski. Jeff Bridges has revealed this very interesting
(11:17):
idea about whether or not brothers Joel and Ethan Cohen,
who of course brought out the cult classic back in
nineteen ninety eight, wouldever look at a sequel. In fact,
it's something him and Julianne Moore talk about quite a bit.
This was during an evening with the Dude in La
The other night.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Dude would have longer to meet the little dude, Julian
Coorse of coorse Man Julian and I who would have.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Fantasize about that time we even see Joe say gee,
it's all set up for a sequel, you know.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
But no, I don't think the brothers are gonna do that.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I don't think that's their I will say, they surprise
us all the time.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
You know, if they called me up and say, hey,
let's do it again, I'd say absolutely. He'd say absolutely.
If you don't know it, The Big Lebowski is the
entire foundation of my marriage. So this would be a really,
really big deal if they did indeed decide to do
a Big Lebowski sequel.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
You know, Smitty, all I have to say to that.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Is, yeah, well, you know, that's just like.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Your opinion.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Man, That rug really tied the room together. All of
your Celebscoop at West Michigan start off at good.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Moving to you. It's Mac and spitty and yeah, the
joys of other people's actions making you feel ridiculously old
hits all the time.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
It's the words, though, I think it's the word that
comes out where you go. Oh, I couldn't possibly be
called that. I'm not that old. So last night it
was my son's spring concert and we're in Rockford and
it was at the high school, which I had never
actually been to or inside of. And it's massive, if
you know this, And there's just a ton of different
(13:12):
parking lots and like some of them were closed off.
I know they had sports practices last night. So I'm
driving around. I'm meeting Chris and the kids because we
literally went from school to swim lessons. They put their
clothes on in the locker room, and then I was
bringing them dinner to eat in the parking lot. That
was the kind of day we had yesterday. So I'm
driving around trying to figure out how to get into
the parking lot where we were going to meet. Everything's
(13:34):
fenced off, everything's closed. I'm feeling like a total senior citizen.
I'm like, I cannot, I don't know what I'm doing.
I've circled the school like three times. People are noticing
I'm embarrassed, and so I'm like, oh, I'm gonna have
to ask for directions. That's fine, somebody will be able
to help me. And there's this very very sweet girl
obviously headed to lacrosse practice, and so I kind of
(13:55):
pulled over and I put my window down. I said, hey,
excuse me.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
She came over.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
She's very kind. I said, I feel so dung. I
am trying to get to that parking lot, like right
in front of the main entrance to the school's auditorium,
but all of these are gated off. She goes, oh, yeah,
no problem, she said, actually, you know, take this straight down,
take a leftier you'll circle around and you'll see the
opening where you can get into that lot. I said,
oh my gosh, thank you so much. She goes, no problem, ma'am, ma'am.
(14:21):
I have never been called ma'am.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
No I have.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
This is the first time babysitters lovely people at a restaurant,
and when survey, I've never been called ma'am. I would
take miss because I understand like she was trying to
be respectful. Ma'am. I about keeled over. It has bothered
me so much. I've been thinking about it all night
till this moment right now.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
I've never called you ma'am. I feel like I even
called young girls man like our two professionals do that. No,
it's when I say casually. It's like what you said
when they do something nice. You were running fair, Thanks,
thank you, ma'am. I say, I call everybody sir all
the time.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Sure is different than ma'am. Let me give you a
heads up. They hate that you do that. They won't
say it to your face, but they cannot see it.
I don't think there is any woman that likes being
called ma'am if you are not living in like the
South and it's all very cute, see old school. I
don't think anyone likes being called ma'am.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Do you think when you get older, when your kids
are adults and they start maybe wanting to have kids
of their own, are you gonna be that grandma who's like,
you can't call me grandma?
Speaker 2 (15:26):
I'm Grandma's fine. Ma'am is the worst. I only use
it when I'm talking to my four year old daughter
and she's doing something sassy, and I go, ma'am, can
we fix our face? Otherwise I guarantee those poor promotional
interns that are twenty one years old leave the studio
going if you would just stop calling me ma'am, that
(15:48):
would be real great. Is there a word that is
as triggering to you? Four five, eight, one oh five seven.
I've clearly got a deep rooted hatred of ma'am.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Honestly, I there's no words that would get me. I
don't feel like but I did have one of the
kids on my baseball team give me the okay boomer response.
I'm like, I'm like, bo what you do? Dad's a boomer?
What are you talking about? I guess it's all the
same when you're only ten.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I guess six one six, four five eight, one oh
five seven. What's the triggering word for you? I clearly
did not handle ma'am very well.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Mack and Schmidty in the Morning on Star one oh
five point seven.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Time Spilling Tea Take time spill the too, sweetheart.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
We have no problem sharing your drama each and every week.
It is tea time, So make sure you send us
your message is you can hit us up anonymously. All
right at West Michigan Star, what's going on.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
As there's some serious drama here and actually I'm really surprised.
Our listeners are very split on what to do here.
My brother's dealing with possible drama at our parents this weekend.
It's obviously Eastern. We all go to their house to celebrate.
T other thinks it's a fun idea to officially introduce
his new girlfriend to them while we're all together for
(17:05):
the holiday. I love her, but she's definitely edgier than
other women, he's stated before, tattoos, some piercings. It's probably
going to catch my parents a bit off guard. They
are pretty strict, and my brother thinks he should warn
his girlfriend. But wouldn't that upset you if you were her?
I actually have no idea how my parents are going
(17:26):
to react, So I told him to bail on the
weekend and do it when it's way less intense.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
I think that My first reaction when I read her emails, like, ooh,
warning your girlfriend, that's a bold movie.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
I feel like that's the wrong thing because I feel
like it puts a negative connotation on your parents. And
I feel like, also, if you were trying to give
your even your parents a heads up to be a
negative connotation about your girlfriend, I think you just let
this one play out. It sounds like a fun and
entertaining easter to me.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Oh, is that what you call stress and terrible times?
Speaker 1 (17:57):
It's stressful as your girlfriend that okay?
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Well you you have always known people to introduce relationships
to families, and families are like, oh do you love them?
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Then?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Because our listeners are very back and forth on this,
April says, hmm, holidays are already filled with added stress
and pressure. If she's someone you think will be around
for a while, I guess no reason to wait. She
needs to get used to the crazy. Stacy says. Your
brother's decision, whatever he wants to do. But there's a
lot of tough people that are like, oh, never do
(18:29):
this at a family holiday. Never, Teresa, a family holiday,
never the best time. Family holidays aren't always easy anyway,
do not do it right now?
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Hi, See, I feel like I wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I wouldn't do it.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Clearly, this guy likes a little spice of life. Schmitty.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
I guess lay the groundwork, dude. Send some snapchat pictures,
like you know in your family group thread, be like
you know, oh, I've been hanging out with so and so.
You know, lay the groundwork, because if they are really
strict pairs and the worst possible thing is they have
a reaction like oh, or say something about it, and
that takes forever. Maybe I feel like to recover from.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Maybe meet up at church for the first time, maybe
like start the whole journey right there at church.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
All right, Bryson left us a talk back inside our
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 7 (19:17):
Yeah, that's a tough one. I've definitely had parents that
would like judge you like that, So I guess you
just have to be open about it and kind of
be like, hey, you know, my parents are kind of conservative,
and you know they're not really with that sort of era.
Get maybe tone it down, you know, just when you're
around them, you know, just the smooth things over.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
I still think tone it down it going over well either,
you know, a few mimosas and this will get interesting.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
What do you think some drama at Easter with the
parents meeting the new girlfriend. Is this even a good
idea to do at a family holiday? You can chime
in in the comments. Head to our Facebook at West
Michigan Star.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
That's where you can also share your drama with us
each and every week tea time every Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
CDs music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Well, new details are emerging following the arrest of former
child star Haley Joel Osmon, who was arrested at Mammoth
Mountain in California earlier this week on suspicion of intoxication
and being under the influence of a controlled substance. Some
bodycam footage has now been released, actually showing him attempting
(20:34):
to get on a chairlift without a snowboard. He's being
very volatile, being very loud. That's when ski patrol and
officers were first called to the scene. Now we're learning
that he may have dropped some offensive language, including a
racial slur, at cops trying to arrest him at this
ski resort. Law enforcement sources say the arresting officer reported
(20:57):
Haley was belligerent taking him into custom he said. The
officer claimed Haley hurled the K word at him, the
Jewish slur, but then oddly enough, also labeled him a Nazi.
Source to say the police interaction was a really, really
bad moment for Haley, and in fact, all of that
body cam footage is expected to be released. He was
(21:20):
officially booked on intoxication and controlled substance, which we're hearing
was cocaine.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
I mean the fact that it's all on video too
is absolutely awful news for this guy. You know, he
struggled with some substance abuse stuff in the past.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
You wait to see it because he was doing so
well and you just wonder like, oh no, did we
fall off the wagon? And this is just going to
be so harmful rapper Acon, you know it my millennial girlies,
you remember this from college? How would you feel if
it had a bit of a honky tonk vibe to it?
That's right. Acon is planning to re record his entire
(22:02):
discography as country music. He was out signing autographs in
New York this week when he said he's actually been
working on this for the past five years and we
will be hearing it soon.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
I'm actually redoing my whole catalog and country.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Knowlge this play.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
So what gave me the idea?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Like this idea for years ahead?
Speaker 8 (22:26):
Again, it's been emotion for the last but starting next month,
you'll start seeing all the releases.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Next month he's releasing all the new releases, so I'm
not sure who might be a part of this. Obviously,
people are stoked that maybe he would work with the
likes of a Jelly Roll, a Morgan wall In something
like that. But you're gonna get country econ.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
Honestly, as soon as you said it, I go, Okay,
here comes here comes jelly Roll Collaborations. Who hasn't Roll
collaborative five years.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
He's been working on this though, so I'm pretty excited
to hear it. Finally, there's a huge event going on
in Japan this week, Star Wars Celebration, and a ton
of announcements were made yesterday, including the newest celebrity joining
the Star Wars universe. And if you've heard the rumors
(23:17):
about Ryan Gosling, that rumor.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Is one hundred percent true.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Is Ryan Gosling is joining the Star Wars universe. He
came out on stage in Japan last night to absolute
thunderous roar of eruption. It was so cool. He is
going to be a part of Star Wars star Fighter.
It is the latest movie to be announced. It hits
theatre's Memorial Day weekend of twenty twenty seven. It will
(23:46):
take place approximately five years after Star Wars. The Rise
of Skywalker, and Gosling will play a brand new character,
teased by his appearance on stage. My favorite part of
this entire story, the one men's section on this video
is fantastic with a bunch of people typing, he's just
Ken Noby uh. It's really great. There were a couple
(24:11):
of other huge announcements, including never before seen trailers for
the New and Or season on Disney Plus. Got it
for You with your scoop at West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
The Battle of the Sexes could get you to the
Allegan County Fair to see two of the premier comedian's
tour In Today.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Super Stove Jeff Dunham and Gabriel Gabriel Iglesias come into
West Michigan Market Down. It's September fifth. We've got your
tickets with today's number one answer one hundred men surveyed
what time on Easter does a kid take their first
bite of chocolate?
Speaker 1 (24:41):
The second that they find the first egg that's got
any chocolate in it.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Oh, honestly, last year, my daughter woke up in the
middle of the night and ate, so it was like
two thirty in the morning.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
He's an overachiever, all right.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
Six, one, six, four, five, eight, one oh five seven.
One hundred men surveyed what time on Easter does a
kid take their first bite of.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Chalkl Good morning? Start? Who's this Sarah? Sarah? Where you
calling from today? All right, Sarah, let's see we get
you into Jeff Donough and Gabriel Iglacius at the Elegant
County Fair. You just got to tell me as we're
rolling into Easter weekends. As one hundred women were asked,
at what time on Easter does the average kid take
(25:19):
their first bite of chocolate? What are you gonna say?
Speaker 7 (25:23):
Is their top answer by eight am?
Speaker 1 (25:26):
What made you say eight am? Why are you thinking eight?
Speaker 8 (25:30):
It's just what it's like around the same time the
kids wake up for school, or a little bit earlier.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
You know, I was wondering if people would go later.
I was never allowed to go into the chocolate until
after church, so it was always like ten or eleven
before I could get into any of the candy. But
you know what, sometimes you gotta eat the candy before
you go to church. Maybe because eight am was the
top answer, when to go Sarah, it was eight, followed
by ten, then twelve and nine am, rounding out those
(25:59):
top four answers, and you are going into Easter weekend
knowing you got some awesome comedy plans for this fall.
Speaker 7 (26:05):
That's amazing.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
You're so welcome, Gabriel Iglecias as well as Jeff Dunham
together Alligan County Fair this September. You want some tickets,
we got them for you over at West Michigan Star
dot com. If you didn't win this week, but congratulations
to all of our winners and happy Easter, Sarah.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Package Schmidty. And we all get super excited when something
that we're passionate about becomes available. But the problem is
is that if you're passionate about it, there's a decent
chance that a lot of other people are too, and
it makes it very difficult to get tickets to things sometimes,
or in my case, it made it impossible for me
to live my burger dreams. Smider. Yesterday, I spent way
(26:46):
too much time attempting to get Red Robbin's Burger of
the Month club discounts because Red Robin, if I didn't
I didn't know this beforehand. First off, May is National
Burger Month, and so Red Robin was doing this thing
that I happened to see yesterday in the morning that
said for twenty dollars they are going to be selling
(27:09):
a burger pass for the entire month of May. That
for that one to twenty dollars purchase, you get a
burger and an unlimited side every single day for the
month of May. Oh that's like four hundred and fifty
dollars worth of saving.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
I did, as every parent does.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
I had to do the math and Schmitty, this is
the best part. I have never, one time in my
entire life waited online to buy something the moment it
went on sale. I've never done it with tickets. I've
never done it with a phone or anything else like that.
I have never done it until yesterday, Schmitty. I spent
no less than thirty minutes hitting refresh on my phone
(27:46):
as well as on the computer trying to get the
twenty dollars Burger card for red Robin and the like.
There was a limited amount, a limited amount. The website
crashed the second that it happened, so many people tried
to buy them all at once. About ten minutes in,
they put up a warning saying, hey, our website is
crashed because of the demand. But keep trying because there's
(28:07):
still cards available. I even got to the point where
I was on the purchase screen, but I just had
one of those spinny wheels you had.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
The Swiftie fifty.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
I almost got to live the dream of eating a
burger every single day for an entire month, Smitty, and
I was here for I was ready for it, Smitty.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
I don't think I've ever done something like that, never
in your life. Oh, I'm so sorry. I'd rather nap
this terrible person.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Get this one. So Christy Tate mcray and Van and
Marina coming later this year. She said she was online
twenty five thousand people out of her in the queue.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Unsuccessful because when she added that Van Andels show, people
got into that and they were like, oh man.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Hey, Christy, just so you know, right here on Star
gonna be hooking you up with those tickets at some
point before that, so be listening. But Tony, listen to
this Phil Collins Palace of Auburn Hills, hopeing a surprise
his wife. This is back in the day. So he
literally went to the box office, waited outside huge lound
of people that were there for some RV show. So
they let him go in front and right at ten
(29:05):
am she got it. Voi la, he says, front Row Center.
His wife was able to give Phil Collins a rose.
He said. This was about nineteen ninety or nineteen ninety one,
before all the fancy.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Ticket buydou I would totally camp out for tickets. You
mean it the most interesting people you got.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
You got to give Phil Collins a rose? That would
make it worth it. I mean, is it as good
as burgers every day for an entire month? I mean
not quite, but close. Well, let's dive into something positive
to stick with you to the rest of your day
and into your Easter weekend. It's feeling good here on
Style one A five point seven. What's up?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Well, Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood is making headlines for a
very different reason today. Surprising his favorite high school security
guard with a brand new car, Underwood went back to
his alma mater, Belleville High School, to sit down and
chat with security guard Mike Darty for an interview. That's
all Darty thought. It was just interview where the two
(30:01):
talk about how much they turned out to meet each other,
how much they mean to each other, and how much
they will mean to each other going forward, He had
no idea he was going to have the keys handed
over to a brand new vehicle.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Check out the moment show car to drive for this segment.
Speaker 8 (30:18):
This is your car gag for real. This is.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Just absolute astonishment at being gifted a brand new car.
As for Underwood, it was a no brainer. He said
that Mike is the guy. He shows up for everyone
in his life.
Speaker 8 (30:36):
Honestly, you know, he's been a great person to all
of the athletes at Beillville. He just cheats everybody like
they are regular people in his earths. And I couldn't
think of nobody. O there there, Mike, you know, because
of what do you hit me with the first time
I ever met him, you know, it was just an
experience that you know, you could even ask for, you know,
just going across somebody that means nothing but right bite.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Underwood teamed up with Feldman Automotive for the big surprise, saying,
Mike shows up everybody, anybody, no matter what they do,
no matter who they are. This is the example of
an incredible human. The video's pretty sweet. West Michigan Star dot.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Com All right, Schmidty, this is just wild. As we
approach graduation season, across the country in San Bernardino, California,
there's a graduate who's a little bit different than her
peers because she is only ten years old but graduating college.
Her name is Alisa Perellas, and she's set to graduate
next month from Crafton Hills College in San Bernardino, but
(31:33):
not one, but two degrees. She began taking college level
classes at age eight, gonna be the youngest student to
ever graduate from the college. Her final GPA is basically
a four point zero as well, and she describes the
experience very fun, compares it to playing outside or riding
a bike, but instead she is working very hard at
(31:53):
some pretty intense different subjects too. Check this out. If
she'd actually stay one more semester, she'd get two more
degrees in computer science and physics. As it is, she'll
be graduating already with degrees and pursues to and plans
to pursue a career in artificial intelligence technology. I'm sorry, smart,
(32:13):
it's crazy to me that there are even human beings
out there like this, ten years old and getting four
points in colleges with multiple degrees in i mean just
barely in double digits, just absolutely wild. But also at
the same time, just pretty incredible, feeling good. Always want
to share amazing things out there, just like that, or
people doing incredible things. We do it for you each
(32:34):
and every morning, six forty five and nine to twenty
right here on Star Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekdays,
starting at six am on Star one oh five point
seven
