That's so funny.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
I remember playing that in like doctor's offices every time
I went to the doctor. That's the only toy they
had like to play was the water ring toss game, right.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Water ringtoss and the kids should have thought that with hilarics.
Well was followed like, well, yeah, back in the day.

This happened on Saturday at the Ravens tailgate, one of
our part time promotions. People lovely girl, her name is Ava.
Totally calling her out right now. I don't know if
she's listening.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
But we were talking about Billboard.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Billboard released their top Artist, Top Songs, Top Albums of
the century so far, and we were just talking about that,
and then we started talking about music videos and she goes, wait,
wasn't there like a whole TV channel that just played
music videos? I was like, oh my gosh, who don't
know about MTV like, Am I that old that this
person doesn't even remember a day when MTV like actually
(02:08):

people seem to really like texting. Seven seven nine six
' two is the number. Just start your message with
high or Hey, when was the last time something or
(02:29):
someone made you feel old?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Let's hear it.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Talking about the last time you felt to old. Let's
go to the text line here and see. I felt
old when my thirteen year old son grew a foot
in one year and was able to pick me up
and spin me around like I was a lightweight.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
In that moment, I felt very old.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Or your kid is just a humongous person, which it
could be really beneficial down the line if he can
carry you.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
My name is Rachel Green, and I noticed that ever
since I was eleven, people attributed that to friends because
that was Rachel's name on friends. I get that, But
this person says that they've worked in high schools middle
school now and no one says that anymore. I guess
the younger generations haven't adopted friends quite quite as much.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Let's see, I.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Told my husband I had found one of my old
burn CDs from high school, and my fifteen year old
asked why I'd keep a melted and burnt CD. He
had no idea, and we had to explain the entire process.
He thought we were nuts. Oh boy, kids, kids today,
they do not know what it.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Was like to have to deal with burn CDs, right.
I used to love doing that.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Also, somebody texted, how many commercials are you going to.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Play between songs? I will play as many commercials as
my company tells me to play. That's the answer to
that question.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
In Case You Won ninety three point one WPOC ninety
three point one WPOC, Today's and Best Country, we've been
talking about things that have made you feel old.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Let's go back to the phone here. I got Kathy
on the phone.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Well, it's been quite a few years ago, but my
daughter was talking to her girlfriend on the phone and
they were talking about this movie that this song was
playing then, and she says it was a ball I said,
that's a good ball. That's an OP fault because I
just came out in the movie. I'm like, well, no,
that doesn't make it. I said, I actually have it
(04:08):
with eight tracks. It's a truck.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
To tell her, just be thankful. You don't know what
a track is, y I know. I am so glad
I missed out on the eight trucks. Let me tell
you that.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Also. I think this person's name was Kendra.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
We didn't have a great connection, but I wanted to
make sure I played this, so, uh, Kendra, what is
up with you?
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Trust me? How old I'm getting?

you're at least you still don't have the you know,
the button, the necklace button that you have to press.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
You still were able to get up eventually, right.

time something or someone made you feel old. Got a
couple more text messages here to go through this and says, Hi,
