Oh my god, that's brilliant, we gotta do that. Sarah and Vinnie. Alice, 97-3. Yeah. Whoa, paradise. Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi. Welcome to Paradise. Here we are in Paradise. It's true. I like it here. Oh, it's very nice here. Yeah. Here we are in Paradise. It's true. I like it here. Yeah, oh, it's very nice here. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Spring is springing. It's nice. I mean, I could live without the time change, but other than that. Wow, wow, wow, is it nice out? God, it was late. So light, so late yesterday. I know. Ah. I mean, I don't mean to not sort of commiserate with you,

3:07but I, yeah, this week, it's not a great night, a great week for sleep. Nope. Just weird. I hate it. I hate readjusting. I hate change. I mean, I'm not the most brilliant person, but they're, she posted a video. Did you post that video? My brain's not working. Like, I just, I'm not getting enough sleep. I'm not getting enough brain power to my mouth. What do you mean, what's happening? What did you post it a video of? And I was trying to just think of a whole word. The torch. I would see myself blaming stick malfunctioning. I'm like, oh my god. Go into protest with flaming sticks. Jesus Christ. Poor brain. What's hilarious, though? I don't know who assert that. John signed up for some, it's like, it's games, but he was reading some article, which I suspect was like an ad for this game that he wound up paying, like, $99 for a year of it. I'll give it to him. It's supposedly, you play it every day,

4:08and it improves your brain function. It constantly pushes you, like, it makes it a little bit harder, a little bit harder, and you'll even give you a ranking like if you did well. But then it keeps making it harder for you. But then, if you start to screw up, it'll walk it back a little bit, and take you back to where you were doing pretty good. Let you do that for a while, and then move it forward. It's all these different things, like, that's great. Yeah, I was thinking, maybe I should do that. I play a lot of games, though. I do a lot of, like, word games, and I spit all over myself. Why are you spitting on yourself? I was wrong. I guess my lips are getting off lapping. Yeah. Well, I think I'd just need better sleep. But maybe I need a game, too. I feel like, as I get older, the thing I am most worried about is, like, dementia, and losing it, and being that person that tells the same story over and over. I'm already that person. Are you?

5:08Radio people in general are, I mean, come on. Well, I'm not saying we don't tell our stories more than once on the air. I'm saying, I just told you, and now I'm telling you again, and in five minutes, I'm going to tell you again. Oh, well, we're asking the same question over and over. I don't know. I want to try and stay sharp, you know? Yeah. Just ring as much alike out of this as I can. Bad before my mom died, that was the deal. It was tell me something. Then tell me the same thing five minutes later. And then you just get frustrated. And you're like, mom, I've heard this. You told me this 300 times. Oh, but then, and then I'm sure her reaction is, oh, no, I'm losing it. And then she forgets about that. Yeah, exactly. Well, yeah, it might also be, you don't have to be so mean about it. Yeah. I know. Terrible child. I mean, I am aging right before your eyes. Hello. Getting grayer by the moment. But, you know, I worry about it because I don't have kids or anything. Like, you know, I'm just, you know, I worry I'll end up being this dude living, you know,

6:09by walk out, no one will miss you. Like it'll be, you know, we just walk it around, thinking you're going to get on the bus. And talking to the neighbors and showing up at their house. Oh, I am here. Yeah. Well, you're, you're talking about a hopeful scenario where the kids actually have time to take care of dad and reality there across the country doing their thing. Yeah. Don't worry about that. Yeah. I'm not going to hold it against my kids if they don't want to live on my street so they can keep an eye on me. I don't expect them to do that. I'm super glad my brother and sister lived near my parents. And I'm like, oh, that's, I'll just drop in for a visit now. Yeah. That's actually, it is. Hmm. My sister's so good too. She like, really, she's so patient with them. And they're actually, they're great right now. Your parents. They are 86 and 80 and they're just they're holding steady. It seems like they're marking time. They love it. I'm feeling pretty good about Sandy too. She's not doing the exercises that I want her to do

7:12but that's, I can't make her do stuff. You can't. My old man, she's a walker now. He's 90, you know, still lives alone. Still hunts. Yeah. And goes to all the girls basketball games for the high school and softball games. Does he? He's like a mascot for the team. They, they, they just adore him. Hmm. All right. That's nice. Yeah. He puts on clothes and exits the house and gets himself to the high school basketball game. And then someone helps him get a seat and everything. But so that's just, he does it because now he's out of the house. Now he's in the house. My, my sister was a college basketball player. He loves women's basketball and he loves softball. So, yeah. So, yeah. He's just, you know, that's his, I love that he's got that, you know? It's great. But it's worrisome because we got to move him out of the house soon. Like, it's just too much. Yeah. And then he'll have to move to Virginia Beach probably because that's where my sister lives.

8:12Oh, yeah. Is she volunteering? Yes. Yeah. He doesn't like Alameda. Oh. Oh, that'd be perfect roommate. Yeah. Yeah. Come to the loft, dad. Yeah. That would be fine. Here's your corner of the loft. None wrong with that. I don't know. That's a no. Oh. But I would, I do see myself moving back east at some point to be close to him before, you know, it gets real bad. He starts forgetting stuff. He's 90. Sorry. Are you leaving tomorrow? His mom lived to be 106. Oh, my God. And, uh, I'm a long line of long-lived people. Yeah. I'm losing it, you know, around 99, 100, then then they just kind of, you can't really blame them. Yeah. Listen, aren't you happier topics? Oh, yeah. I would like to say that, uh, Steven Jenkins does, you know, Steven Jenkins, he just doesn't understand what I'm asking of him. I'm convinced. I think that he feels like it's an appearance and he wants to have stuff to promote, which is fine.

9:13So he wants to come on, but he says, I got a date, I'm getting a date for pride. And I'm, I got this bottom of the hill thing is he's going to do some solo shows and, um, so I think he's coming on in two weeks from tomorrow. Great. Yes. Um, so in the meantime, why do you think he doesn't, I think he just wants, he has, he has these as well though. Sure. Okay. I mean, he could call in and tell us he's got a gig any time he wanted to, which I tried to express to him. And he was like, yeah, but if I'm coming in there, like I'm like, yeah, but it's, we're going to play a game. It's a, just a quick little, I know what you're saying, but I get it. He's just thinking practical for himself. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I get him. He's, he's saying, yes, I'll do what you want. You need to do what I want, which is let me promote my thing in my voice live on the air in real time. Yeah. And he wants to roll it all into one appearance, I guess, because you know, he is a rock

10:16star. I'm sure seven o'clock in the morning is a little on the early side for him because he could literally come in anytime he wanted to really. Well, we have Matt Nathan said, and these guys that live locally, it's like, come on in. I'm with you. Pat on a hand. We don't know how busy their days are. Maybe they actually do have full days. He does seem busy. Yeah. Where they're like, travels a lot. I don't wake up and, you know, slow walk my way through a day. I got stuff to do. Yeah. Or maybe that's just an image he needs to be to have out there. Maybe. Like, you don't need to know that I wake up and do and doodle. Right. And play my game. I subscribe to it. My bad to make sure I don't get to make you know that because I'm a rock star and need to keep the image up. Yeah.

13:22at the best price. I am working on questions for tomorrow, and they're good. I feel like I did find some good ones, and Bob and I are going to do our questions to each other from now on, because I feel like she might not like the wording on mine, or I might not like the wording on hers, or we settle on what the answer can and can't be. There have been times when I've been itchy listening to her questions, and I'm sure she feels the same way. Why do you think it's ultimately it's about entertaining the listeners, and we want to win? Yes, of course. Every time. You want to beat Bob. The kids, right? Oh, just Bob. Get her. Get her. Get her. But you know, I mean, we're running out of people in this building too. That's for sure. Like, we are scrambling to find someone for tomorrow, which we'll be fine.

And phone calls are tough, so you'd have to make your way in. And if you're willing, we have an email address, Sarah and Vinny Radio at gmail.com. Let us know that you could be here at 7.30 in the morning on a Wednesday morning. You probably want to park in. There is no parking around here. Well, there is, but it's pricey and it's walking.

15:26You got to be a zillennial, either a millennial or a Gen Z or a Gen X or a boomer, I guess.

Actually, we're live on YouTube right now. Yeah. We watch it on YouTube. We're so available. I love that bad advice segment. Probably the most. Really? I love it. I like that we all, we everyone experiences turmoil and troubles in their life and there's

16:30no doubt that you find yourself sort of in a pickle and it's nice to talk to someone about it. I love it. I like working through things that aren't my own problems because I, you know, because I don't feel your problems. Yeah. I have this guy who's written me, he's written me basically the same letter about, about probably four or five times and it started out really long with tons of detail and he keeps shortening it and shortening and shortening it. We're getting there as your point. Yes. Really? Keep it succinct. Like, you can give me some examples and stuff, but I feel like, I think his name is Marco and I read his, I read his letter and it's an interesting thing, but I'm like, ah, it's just a little rambly. I'm going to do these other ones. So Marco, I think you might have it now and I might get to yours this week. I do think sometimes when you're explaining a problem, you're hopeful for a certain response

17:31or answer to confirm your views. Absolutely. Absolutely. You might be including details that are unnecessary for our purposes in that we're trying to be neutral parties. Yeah, don't manufacture the answer with the information that you share or you've wasted your time. Give us a plain telling of the situation so we can give you an unbiased opinion, write it all out, stick it in chat, GPT, say, shortness thing up. Oh, summarize this, make this a little bit more radio friendly. I think in most situations, you have a hopeful outcome, even if you're completely wrong, you still are. Well, I have an argument for this. Yeah. Well, it's a good situation because it's family, which is always harder. There's that whole extra layer of, well, you can't, I mean, you can, but it's hard to

18:32write off somebody in your family. So it's even if you do write them off, it sucks. Yeah. You don't want that. Well, now there's sides in the family and now there's what, well, who's coming to the holidays? Exactly. Oh, they're going. Well, they haven't confirmed yet. Well, then I'm confirming. Well, but I also, I know you're just in this thing where family is avoiding each other at the times when you're supposed to be together. It's really tough. It can be really hard. So we had a lot of family dynamics problems, but we'll take any problems, whatever you got going on, we would love to help you figure it out. And we're so good at it. We call it bad advice on Fridays. All right. It's, but none of that matters today is Tuesday, K LLC, K LLC, HD one San Francisco, Seren Benny, Alice's morning show right after this.
