Speaker 2 (02:49):
Are you ready? TV? The entertainment world and whatever?

Speaker 1 (02:55):
Here's what you missed on Excel ninety three.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Well, TikTok? What's going on in TikTok? Trevor? People asking
me that all the time.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
There's a new game you heard of this on TikTok
called One is Poison that is gaining popularity. Basically, you
set out a bunch of candy on a table, Your
opponent designates one piece as poison, and you try to
eat as many as you can without eating the poison.
One for each piece of the candy you eat without
being poisoned. We're a theoretical one hundred thousand dollars. Here's

(03:30):
a couple explaining the game and playing One is Poison.

Speaker 5 (03:34):
Each of these kittles is worth one hundred thousand, However,
one of them is poisonous. How many are you willing
to try and eat? Okay, pleasure, I I'm going to
point to the poisonous.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
One, get rich to guide fine.

Speaker 5 (03:44):
I don't think that's that's been some money two three
hundred K, four, five hundred K seven, nine undred K.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
He did it once again, fictitiously playing no big whoop.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
I feel like we are going to have.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
Some of this blows up anymore, some terrible stories we
will be reporting on and chalking up to Survival of
the Fittest. I do not use poisonous stuff when you're
playing the One is Poison game on TikTok. But hey,
it's on TikTok, so I will not be shocked somebody's
in the er because they're playing One Is Poison on TikTok.

(04:24):
I'm craving some candy right now, after all that One
is Poison we talk this morning, At least I'm not.
I'm kind of craving to hear maybe some late eighties
early nineties poison the band. I'll see if I can
dig something up. I know it's not a throwback weekend
this weekend. Next weekend is, though. We are going to

(04:44):
be focused on summertime throwbacks, songs that were big in
summer months from the past few decades. And you can
help me out program this thing Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Monday, all day long.

Speaker 4 (04:56):
Here's that talkbag button on the iHeartRadio app. Should be
a talk back and me maybe your three favorite summertime throwbacks.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Let me know where you're going to be listening.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
Be sure to get those on for you next weekend.
Get a little foodie on a Friday today.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
Most overrated food.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
You're convinced people are just pretending to enjoy some answers
coming in Friends says foods with gold flakes. Oh, I agree,
there's booze you can buy with gold flakes.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
And every now and then, I've.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
Got these stories about something sprinkled with real gold, and
people are ingesting and ordering for five hundred dollars a plate,
even when I will not if but when I win
Mega Million's son, I won't be ordering that. Olivia's saying,
oysters disgusting, slimy never tried one as long.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
As I can help it, never will.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
I am most overrated foods are convinced people are just
pretending to enjoy.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Let's go to carry I shall ny three. Good morning,
Good morning. Are you calling to answer my question of
the day today?

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yes, I am.

Speaker 4 (06:02):
What's the most overrated food? You're convinced people aren't just
pretending to enjoy sushi? That's my number one answer to Well,
I just can't.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
You can't even write.

Speaker 4 (06:15):
I couldn't even when sushi was popular, and I guess
people still enjoy it.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
It's not as people in you're.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Facing you've got to have sushi are You're a horrible
person like it used to be?

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Right? And I can find when people were eating sushi.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
I can do the vegetable stuff, but why why bother
spending super extra amounts of money on vegetables.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
I can eat vegetables and rice at home front or
a bunk. Don't get me wrong.

Speaker 4 (06:40):
There's not a lot of people who try to invite
me to go out anyway. But good answer, and your
first shot to win will be about seven fifteen.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
Okay, thank you?

Speaker 2 (06:50):
Why are you? I am? Mourning Man by Krypton Decaffeinated Coffee.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
The trivity in the Morning Show six to ten am
weekday mornings.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Excel, let's get a little phony. Is nicial barbecue Day?
More on barbecue choices in trending. I'm going to play
that game with you guys here seven point thirty.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Question of the day today, most overrated food.

Speaker 4 (07:12):
You're convinced people are just pretending to enjoy, Josh, says Kale.
Another good answer, So look at everything so farther it's
come in. There's there's nothing that I am going to
argue back against.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Ed says scar Got.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
I think is how the French like to pronounce it,
the fancy, the snoody Snoodleton's pronounce it kind of the
slimy category is the oysters? Oh cavy are we can
throw that in there too, thanks, Chuck. Absolutely absolutely call,
he says. Cauliflower pizza. There's cauliflower crust pizza, right. I'm

(07:57):
fine with vegetables on pizza. I mean, here's the deal.
You can pick anything off pizza if you don't like it.
If it's an all one of these big, all inclusive pizzas,
you can pull it off. I know some of the
cheese comes off sometimes, but you put fish on pizza.
I don't think any pizza place actually has escargots, or
if they excuse me, anchovies anchovis.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
I think that's something.

Speaker 4 (08:20):
We only saw on TV shows and movies. But if
you put that on pizza, it would smell like fish.
That would ruin the whole pizza. That's the one exception.
I know a lot of people like Red Bull. That's
not my deal either. Randy going with red Bull Most
Overrated Food. I guess beverage counts too. You're convinced people
are just pretending to enjoy. Do some gift cards, use

(08:43):
your own adventure winning here shortly? Oh, Sally going with
Starbucks coffee. The menu blows my mind. I'm not educated.
I'm not a coffee girl to begin with. And it's
about eight and ken, I don't even know how much
normal frap of cappuccino is at Starbucks or any of

(09:03):
the Starbucks eat places. Okay, I'm going with Kamba KM
butcha I would have to google image search what that
even is.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
I know the.

Speaker 4 (09:18):
Term question of the day, most overrated Food. You're convinced
other people are just pretending to enjoy, And like I said,
so far, I am not arguing anybody's answers? All right,
rabbing ourselves a little grill out the burgers and dogs

(09:39):
on the grill.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
But you gon let only choose one.

Speaker 4 (09:40):
You can't have one of each wood you choose, and
there's some other options here too. We're you gonna go
through it all together. Happy National Barbecue Day. Trending on
the way on XCEL nty three. Excel naty three, Good morning, Hello, well, hey, hey.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Good day. Who is this brind Let's get a little food.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
What was the what is the most overrated food you're
convinced people are just pretending to enjoy.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
I'm going to say mushrooms.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
That's the first one on the list that I'm going
to argue back. I'm a mushroom fan. I can do
a mushroom pizza. I guess we can't be pizza pals.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Or spam I'm sorry, spam.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
Do you like spam?

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Spam?

Speaker 1 (10:25):

Speaker 4 (10:26):
No, that's not my bag, baby either. I don't know
what it really is. I remember growing up well north
of the border it was click, but it was basically
the same jar of slimy Again, I don't know what
it is. I don't know what to say.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
It is.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Lo fi you fried that up in the house, say
like for Sunday breakfast, it could still smell it Thursday evening. Yeah, functified.
But maybe we could be pizza pals. I would get
my own, you can get your own. We could do
it half and a half. We could still be friends bread.

Speaker 5 (11:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Well, what can I do for you here?

Speaker 4 (11:06):
I can It's gift cards, gift cards and more gift
cards this week and next week. I've got gift cards
to Hugos, Takes Pizza. Maybe I want some non mushroom pizza,
Buffalo Wild Wings. We could do the Bluemouosom River Cinema option.
Talk to me, let's do Hugos.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
How about fifty.

Speaker 4 (11:23):
Bucks to Hugos where you can go there and not
put mushrooms in your cart? Good Bren, what station is

Speaker 1 (11:34):
I am not trending testag trending on exceled ninety three.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
Well, it is officially grilling season, so what are you
cooking up?

Speaker 2 (11:49):
Recent poll found her favorite.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Food too grillies Burgers. I couldn't get offended when like
there's a get together planned and I mean nothing against
steak and everything else you can throw in the grow.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
It's more expensive, but people.

Speaker 4 (12:04):
Think dogs and burgers just it's insulting.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
To the company.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
I am the burger dog type of guy, fully enjoyed
burgers and dogs at the grill, Thank you very much.
Bron's polishes seventy percent of the vote, though burgers. In
an informal Buzzbeed pulled back that up. Here, fifteen thousand
people surveyed voting on popular barbecue food matchups.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
For each matchup, you can only pick one. I'm not the.

Speaker 4 (12:33):
Majority for all of these here, Burgers are dogs, Burgers
getting seventy eight percent of the vote, hot dogs.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Twenty two percent. Chicken are pulled pork.

Speaker 4 (12:41):
I don't really find a big difference, and I don't
make either one to be in with. We'll grilled chicken
from time to time, forty seven percent going chicken, forty
six percent pork seven percent.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
Wouldn't touch either sausage or ribs.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
I would pick ribs, ribs winning with fifty six percent
of the vote.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
It's a deal where I don't need ribs very often.
I would go ribs, but.

Speaker 4 (13:01):
I'm fine with the sausage, potato salad or cole Slow
one hundred percent every time. Potato salad for me, not
a coal slot guy sixty six percent, going potato salad,
macaroni salad, or mac and cheese. Mac and cheese, in
my mind, is something you make on the stovetop the Kraft.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
Macaroni and cheese.

Speaker 4 (13:19):
It's it's not going to be out Dante when it's
coming off the grill too, Macaroni or salad or mac
and cheese. I go macaroni salad, but mac and cheese
winning seventy seven percent of the voats. Watermelon or pineapple
sixty nine percent. Shut up, said, shut up. It's obviously watermelon,
watermelons the summer food.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
You don't grill a watermelon.

Speaker 4 (13:38):
You don't hot pineapple to me is ridiculous too, And
that's on the grill.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
I like cold.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
I love pot pineapple and watermelon. Baked beans or corn bread.
I'm going baked beans. Corn bread gets fifty eight percent
of the vote, and grilled veggies are corn on the cob,
not even close. Corn of the cops seventy percent of
the vote. Throw it in the pan on your side burner,
though for the corn of the cob adds some lemon juice.
Add a little bit of brown sugar there too to
sweeten it up. It is delicious that way. National Barbecue Day. Yep,

(14:05):
there is drooling my shirt. I should have eaten something today.
Trending up everything I shared with you do your own

Speaker 4 (14:31):
Ren Banks Today has used to be the animated show
that had the longest run on primetime TV history to
The Simpsons have since obliterated that record. The Flintstones. Bet
you didn't know. They promoted Winston cigarettes through their first
two seasons with commercials that aired during the show of

(14:52):
the characters smoking. I don't think they do anything inappropriate
on on The Simpsons ever, do they?

Speaker 2 (15:00):
I don't think so. Betch didn't know.

Speaker 4 (15:03):
Mark Twain was born just after Haley's comment was visible
back in eighteen thirty five. When Haley's comment was visible
again seventy five years later, in nineteen ten, Mark Twain
died the next day.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
That's serie kind of a.

Speaker 4 (15:17):
Different spin on Final Destination. That new movie opens up
this weekend, which to me looks like they've made about
three too many Final Destination movies.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
But who knows.

Speaker 4 (15:28):
Who knows how much money it'll make, Probably a lot.
Betch didn't know most of Steve John's wealth came from Disney,
not Apple. When Disney acquired Pixar from him in two
thousand and six, he got seven point four percent of Disney,
worth about four point four billion dollars, and he only
can you see him using their quotes on, only had
about two point one billion from Apple. Steve jobs most

(15:51):
of his wealth came from Disney. Betch didn't know until
the nineteen seventies insurance companies and vending machines at the
airport ticket counters, which sold life insurance policies in the
event of a plane crash.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
I'll have you know, I saw a documentary on this.

Speaker 4 (16:08):
You're much more likely to die on the way to
the airport.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
There's a wise limo driver who said that.

Speaker 4 (16:16):
And whipping out my geography minor from the University of
North Dakota today, bet you didn't know.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Mount Everest has gotten taller.

Speaker 4 (16:23):
It's up to twenty nine thirty one point seven feet,
two feet higher than twenty years ago. It could be
because of major earthquake and twenty fifteen shifted things. But
if you're going to climb it now, he can rub
it into the face of somebody who did it twenty
years ago because he had to go.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
How about two feet higher? And now you know, let
me put it this way your Friday morning.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
More on Award, Yes, more on my nexcel in ninety three, Let's.

Speaker 2 (16:49):
Go to California.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
California trip number five and twenty twenty five. Nothing worse
than coming home and discovering there was a break in,
except in this case it did keep getting worse. A
man in Los Angeles, the area of La came home
last Saturday after being away for a couple of days,
and when he put his key in the door, he
looked inside saw that his house had been ransacked. He

(17:13):
looked closer and found a naked man sleeping in his bed.
He called police and they hauled the guy off to jail.

Speaker 6 (17:22):
As I stuck the key and I could see the
entire kitchen had been ransacked, completely naked sleeping in my bed.
He was yelling to me and my friend and also
the officers.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
I'm going to kill you. I'm going to and kill you.

Speaker 6 (17:33):
He ate a box of ice cream sandwiches. He ate
dull wibbed a whole box of Beyond beef burgers. He
stuck in the microwave, cooked them and then ate them
and then spit a big wad of gum of the
size of a softball like on my kitchen table.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
He ate a bull box of sixty pieces. That's a
lot of gum self fall sized water gum. The intruder
also killed a possum on the back patio by using
a statue. Not surprisingly, the homeowner also found little BIG's around,
which were probably some kind of drugs.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Polase still investigating today.

Speaker 4 (18:06):
A man in La found a naked intruder in his
home last week, and the guy had eating ice cream sandwiches,
veggie burgers, chewed sixty pieces of gum in one big
wand spit it out. There's just say No to drugs
public service announcement today, kids, and there it is that
is now. On our fifth trip to California in twenty
twenty five, taken sole possession of second place morel awards

we creep up on your Memorial Summertime throwback long weekend
all Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday on xcel Nady three
next weekend your favorite Summertime three themed throwbacks to begin
your summer, temperatures creep back up into the seventies and

(20:37):
we're even going to flirt with eighties. We get into
a long weekend again, so we do have better weather
next weekend. We just have to wait for it. I
think is the term question of the day today, most
overrated food you're convinced people are just pretending to enjoy.
Got some Malle Bryce tickets for you guys. Eight thirty five.
We're gonna do a little game. We'll do that's a
fact Friday. I'll give you some facts are actual factual,

(21:01):
some are completely made up. Get three out of five
rights and we'll get you to leave Bryce show last
chance to win. Win thefore you can buy them tickets
as tickets go on sale later this morning. So we'll
play that game and keep answering the question of the day.
You should have some help you eat thirty five too?
What is the most overrated food? You're convinced people are
still pretending to enjoy? Jill just going vegetables. That's what

(21:23):
ranch is for. That's what cheese is for. Dipping stuff
and queso. You can't tell me there's a vegetable you
can't dip in caso. It will be ultimately delicious. Blue
Moose has their spinach caeso. You can get it with
the vegetables to dip in or chips, the broccoli and
the spinners. Caso with the Blue Moose is fantastic. But

(21:45):
that's what it's for if you're playing broccoli, might as
well he leaves off the tree while you're going for
a walk. Our popular answer brid going with sushi and
sam going horse radish, and like horse radish gives a
little spice.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
To whatever you're eating.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
You don't need to buy the tablespoonfy, they're not supposed
to horse radish.

Speaker 2 (22:03):
Not a lot of these answers I've argued against. Keep sharing,
We'll do more.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
Choose your own, adventuating lots of gift cards this next
week Tuck and Hugo's fifty dollars gift cards to Buffle,
Wild Wings, Deeps Pizza and more to get you ninety
three dollars gift cards to Bounds by Misty.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
I am now convinced every single reality show has been done.
We don't need anymore.

Speaker 4 (22:28):
I don't care who you voted for. We don't get
political on this show. Who you support again, I don't care.
If this happens, America has sunk to a new low.
Homeland Security Secretary Christy Nolmans reportedly backing a proposal for
a reality show where immigrants compete for a fast track
to US citizenship. She would even allow government officials to

(22:52):
be judges. The show is called The American and it
would have contestants riding around the country on a train,
competing in regionally specific contests like long rolling in Wisconsin,
for example. Been in Wisconsin many times, I didn't know
long rolling is a big deal there. The guy who's
pitching it is a writer producer who's worked on Duck

(23:14):
Dynasty and Millionaire Matchmaker, and he's an immigrant himself. And
he claims there's no political ideology behind the show.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
Quote.

Speaker 4 (23:23):
I'm merely trying to make the show, make a show
that celebrates what it means to be American through the
eyes of people who wanted most. The winner would be
sworn in on the steps of the US Capitol. You know,
it's both hilarious and depressing about this the nineteen eighty
seven movie. My first thought was the running man Arnold
Schwarzeneger in the nineteen eighty two book based on We're

(23:47):
both set in the dystopian future of twenty twenty five.
That's a fact. If I had a done done Dune
sound effect, I would have played that for you. And yeah,
I get that nobody's dying the show. At least that's
not part of the plan, But this doesn't feel like
a heck of a lot different.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
Speaking of great timing.

Speaker 4 (24:05):
Though, A new version of The Running Man is coming
out this November, starring Glenn Powell in the lead role.
Government backing a reality show where immigrants compete for citizenship.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
What could go wrong?

Speaker 4 (24:16):
All right, we've got our stuff together right now. One
more thing. It's getting my one more thing. We're gonna
see if you've got fake friends or not.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
I have an answer to my question of the day, Annie,
I have you put thought into this?

Speaker 4 (24:27):
I think I have food. Pretend food's most overrated food.
You're convinced people are just pretending to enjoy.

Speaker 8 (24:34):
I'm thinking like condiments like mushroom.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Mushrooms, like mushrooms in general.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
I think, Yeah, I.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
Thought we were good buddies.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
Well you love them.

Speaker 4 (24:46):
Can you do mush now? I wouldn't just need a
plane mushroom. Yeah, it's got to be on a pizza
or chopped up and stir fried to go on steak.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
See you the mushroom soup. I can do that too.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Okay, that's different.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
How's that It's still mushroom?

Speaker 8 (24:59):
Yeah, but it's different. I feel like that's its own
at that point.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
Mixed with other things.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
You know, you can you do.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
The stir fry like chopped up mushrooms onions.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
Some Well that's a little different too, that on top
of a steak.

Speaker 8 (25:13):
I guess when I eat it on top of a
pizza or yeah, stir fry, you can't really taste it.

Speaker 3 (25:17):
But that's the point, because that's what's a mushroom there.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
For It's just a waste of space, is what you're
getting at.

Speaker 3 (25:23):
So you seem healthy, like you're.

Speaker 4 (25:25):
Okay, see your angle right now? I think we can
still be friends. I still don't think you're my fake friend.
I don't think so. You guys might have fake friends, though.
We're gonna we're gonna give you some signs here next
Excel Muddy three. Hello, Oh my gosh, Hello, oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (25:44):
I did not think I was gonna get through.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
Well guess what you did.

Speaker 4 (25:50):
You're not You're like, oh, don't hang ups.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
Don't hang up? What's your name? Lindsay, Lindsay?

Speaker 4 (25:59):
Do you potentially want to see Lee Brice? Yes, well
potentially we're going to make that happen. It's not just
an automatic here. But luckily you've got she knows so
much about so much. Honie is here to say about that,
my Friday friend, to help you out. We're gonna play
that's a fact Friday.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
So I've got some facts.

Speaker 4 (26:19):
Some of these are actual factual and some are completely
made up.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Get three out of five right, and you're going to
be a winner.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
Oh gosh, Okay, all.

Speaker 4 (26:28):
Right, here we go, and Honie is your lifeline for
all of these questions. So I'm liking your confidence here,
here we go. I'm liking your odds. The odds are
ever in your favor. I think the line I came
up with question one, kickups can be triggered by sudden
temperature changes.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Is that a fact?

Speaker 8 (26:50):
Oh man, I didn't know how to be like a
scientist knows science.

Speaker 2 (26:58):
Are we going fast?

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Yeah, let's go fact.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
You both sound very confident. That's a fart. Cold drinks.

Speaker 4 (27:05):
Cold drinks are a change in air temperature can irritate
the diaphragm and cause hiccops. The cold drinks thing makes sense, though,
because sitting on maybe it'll beverages, take us swinging the
wrong way and you've got hiccops.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
For three hours.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
Speaking from experience, I see science.

Speaker 2 (27:21):
It was for science. That's why I did it. Oh, right,
next one.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
That's a fact, Friday. The heart is on the left
side of your chest.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
Is that a fact?

Speaker 3 (27:32):
Yes, yeah, let's do fact.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
I would have guessed that too, But that's not a fact.

Speaker 4 (27:37):
It's located near it's located near the center, just slightly
tilted to the left.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
I know, I just purposely gave you a wrong answer.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Basically, we put our hand over.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
All right, let's do this. One. Elephants can jump. Is
that a fact?

Speaker 3 (27:54):
No, I guess I've never seen one jump.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
I've seen a lot of trampolines. Never have I seen it?

Speaker 3 (27:59):
Now on one?

Speaker 8 (28:00):
Yeah, lindsay, what was your answer?

Speaker 3 (28:03):
No, Okay, let's go.

Speaker 4 (28:04):
No, elephants cannot jump due to the leg structure and
body mass. They do not like the Crisscross or Van
Hill and jump songs at all. It's taunting them. All right,
let's do this one. Ice sinks in alcohol.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
Is that a fact?

Speaker 3 (28:24):
I'm trying to picture you drinking beer, Trevor.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
You've ever Yeah, ice sinks in alcohol. No, re looking
more actual alcohol like we're going.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
No, not a fact, No, not a fact.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
Annie is really helping you out. It is a fact.

Speaker 4 (28:47):
Ice is denser than alcohol, so it sinks instead of floating.
So like a mixed drink, there's more water in there,
so that's why it's not going to float.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
But it's pure alcohol, it's going to sink. All right.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
It comes down to this one, whether you're going to
leave rice or not. Lindsay, you can start a fire
with ice?

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Is that a fact?

Speaker 3 (29:05):
No? I think that's true.

Speaker 7 (29:09):
True.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Honnie hasn't been out of school for a long time,
so if she saw.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
This in a science class, I don't know if I
doubt her. That's I've never heard of this, but I
wouldn't doubt her. That's the most confident she's she's had
so far in this game.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
What are we going with? It's true fact, that's a fact.

Speaker 4 (29:29):
A piece of clear ice, shaped like a lens can
focus sunlight to ignite tinder. Ever stuck in a snowstorm
next winter fire with ice?

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Ice? Baby, you're going to leave Brice? Brice baby?

Speaker 3 (29:42):
That is awesome, Thank you so much.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Lindsay tickets before they go on, said, what's that? What
station's proNT of me? Or leave Bryce concert connection.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
Excel ninety three for one more thing on Excel ninety three,
one more time.

Speaker 4 (29:56):
One more Oh, that's us big friends today.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
Big friends.

Speaker 4 (30:03):
They can be fun when you're young and they're imaginary friends,
but when you're an adult, fake friends can be toxic.
This is for the good of all today, not to
mess with your mind and make you think of us
this person fake friend of mine.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
I'm going to be wearying out every friend I have.

Speaker 4 (30:19):
How do you know if one of your friends is fake?
There's a list online here. Try to help the out
with warning signs if you're to look out for See
if this all makes sense, Dianni, if you feel like
your role revolves around pitying the other person, We've all
these people in our lives, but maybe they're not in
the official friends circle right when the friendship.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
Is on their terms. They only want to talk about.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
When it's about them, convenient for them, or will benefit
them in some way.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
Okay, they need a listener.

Speaker 8 (30:48):
They don't care how Yeah, Like they're always ranting to you,
never like, oh how's your son and so yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
Work with people like that before.

Speaker 4 (30:56):
Yeah, when friends keep secrets that have a BacT your life,
like knowing something questionable about someone you're dating and not
telling you.

Speaker 3 (31:05):
That's always hard.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Mm hmmm. I feel better about not having.

Speaker 3 (31:10):
Lots from us right now, because yeah, you don't have
to worry.

Speaker 4 (31:14):
Think as you get older, you weed out some of
these people. That's true, the good ones.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
Yeah, you know who. And what the signs are They.

Speaker 4 (31:21):
Never make time for you when they're in a relationship.
Encounters with them leave you emotionally drained. These are signs
you might actually have a fake friend. You have emotionally
draining people in your lives when you find yourself avoiding them,
are constantly complaining about them.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
That would make sense.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
They're just scared to make the cut.

Speaker 4 (31:42):
Yeah, when they stop caring and then explode when you
pointed out.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
Too, I know you're you're going to be thinking about
this all day long.

Speaker 8 (31:51):
Now, how are you going to be able to be
identisty thinking how this applies to our friendship, Trevor.

Speaker 4 (31:57):
None of it, None of it. I care every day.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
Yeah, we'll see.

Speaker 4 (32:02):
I was a couple of minutes from texting you to
just make sure you were coming or I was worried
something might have happened. If they won't accept you for
who you are and they try to get you to
change yourself, I think that's more a younger thing.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
That's a yeah, that's more like high school. Ye.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Yeah, at college, try to be cool, fit in.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
I'm not ripping on sororities. Fraternities.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
They do a lot of good things, but that might
be you all sort of think the same way, right,
per sorority, per fraternity, just observer looking outside or looking in.
After all my years of college and post college, let
me get my foot out of my mouth here and
going to the next point. When you realize the friend
creates ninety nine point nine percent of the drama you

(32:47):
and them get into it, and you're cleaning up ninety
nine point nine percent of it.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
That's a that's an old hecky ass, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (32:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (32:54):
And no accountability.

Speaker 4 (32:55):
There's no I messed up, I'm sorry, just excuses and
avoiding you signed you might actually have a fake friend.
Was this helpful or is this just going to get
your mind off doing anything else all weekend long as
you analyze every single person.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
In your life.

Speaker 8 (33:08):
I think it helps for some people to hear it,
because I think we all know the signs and you
feel it, but then hearing it from other people like
again again, makes you realize, oh wait, okay, this is
not just in my head. It's everyone else's head too.

Speaker 2 (33:21):
There's a lot of good ones in your circle.

Speaker 4 (33:23):
I'm not saying weed out all of your friends, but
there's those people you just you shouldn't even.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
I think is the term.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
Yeh, shouldn't even.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
You shouldn't even. Annie.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
