Key Segments

---

1. Joanna’s Half Marathon: An Accidental Runner’s Triumph

[01:31–08:43]

• Joanna’s Motivation and Lack of Preparation:
  Joanna decides to run a half marathon to support her boyfriend, Jason, who’s running the full marathon, despite only training for a week and not even owning running shorts.

  • “I had every intention of going to the gym, but I ended up going home and taking a nap. So I never woke up.” – Joanna (02:10)
  • She borrows old tennis shoes and buys shorts the night before; her dad drops her off at the start.

• At the Starting Line:
  She’s comically unprepared, even forgetting safety pins for her number, and has to beg a Walmart employee for some.

• The Race:
  Gets swept up in the two-hour pace group, doubts herself at mile 1, but keeps going, inspired by high fiving people on the sidelines.

  • On runner’s high:
    “It’s a legend runner’s high.” – Bert (06:10)
    “It’s alleged runner’s high. But I quickly was like, you know what? No, no, I'm going to keep going. And the next thing I know, I'm at mile 10.” – Joanna (06:11)

• Final Push:
  Powers through the last mile, inspired by a Train song, and finishes in 2 hours, 17 minutes—all without walking.

  • “I finished in 2 hours and 17 minutes.” – Joanna (07:19)
  • “And I finished... and I finished a half marathon.” – Joanna (07:44)

• Aftermath:
  Emotional at the finish line, gets hooked by the experience, and wants to continue running.

  • “I could have kept going... probably not a whole marathon, but I could have gone a couple more miles.” – Joanna (08:00)
  • Crew jokes: “All you gotta do is run a half marathon. Then you’ll get into running.” – Jeff (08:36)

---

2. Melissa’s High School Connection: Navigating A Reunited Spark

[08:53–13:33]

• Reconnecting:
  Melissa gets an unexpected email from an old high school acquaintance (a soccer player, one grade above).

  • “He was kind of friends with everybody... I think that's all I'm gonna say right now.” – Melissa (10:13)

• Reluctance and Build-up:
  She’s sick before Thanksgiving but exchanges numbers with him via email. He’s very forward (crew jokes about “if he wasn’t hot, it’d be creepy” – Jeff, 09:54).

• Group Date:
  She goes out with him and several friends—nothing happens beyond a kiss, and Melissa teases the crew amid their prying.

  • “There was no making out.” – Melissa (12:43)
  • “She’s having breathing issues, so she couldn’t kiss for very long or she’d suffocate.” – Melanie (12:55)

• Crew’s Riffing:
  Playful interrogation about future plans and whether the guy is listening in live.

  • “Do you love him?” – Jeff (13:31)
  • “Stop asking me questions.” – Melissa (13:28)

---

3. Miley Cyrus Concerts: How Young Is Too Young?

[15:37–27:36]

• Parental Expectations vs. Reality:
  Bert’s wife, Stacey, took their 7-year-old to a Miley Cyrus show and found it more adult-themed than expected. Discussion on stage costumes, dance moves, and the changing demographics of Miley’s fans.

  • “I don’t want to be over the top about it... but she is Hannah Montana... one and the same person.” – Stacey (18:19)
  • “She was on a pole... when she would dance with some of the guys on stage... it was pretty sexy.” – Stacey (18:57)

• Audience Opinions:
  Multiple callers recount being uncomfortable (especially with Miley’s brother’s opening act). Parental perspectives versus those of teens and child-free adults.

  • “He was disturbing to look at... telling kids, you know, that they want to take their clothes off and stuff.” – Susan (20:03)
  • “It was just not something that little kids need to see.” – Stacey (23:26)

• Callers’ Takes:

  • Melissa: Suggests distinction between “Miley concert” and “Hannah Montana” experience.
    • “Seven year olds have no business at a Miley Cyrus concert. However, they can go to the Hannah Montana viewings. They’re two totally different things.” (24:18)
  • Casey (teen): Attended and loved the concert as an 18-year-old and points out Miley never claimed these shows were for children (25:32).

• Crew’s Reflection:
  On the blurry lines of pop stars growing up—and what happens to their young audiences as they do.

  • “She has to squeeze out of that... this is it. And yeah, she is probably navigating it better than most.” – Melanie (26:06)

---

4. Christmas Without Children: Adult Holiday Alternatives

[29:43–37:34]

• Melanie’s Dilemma:
  No children in the family, and the traditional holiday spirit feels hard to muster, prompting a quest for new traditions.

  • “It is hard to wrap your mind around a Christmas without children. But that is what I’m looking for, and that’s why we’re lost.” – Melanie (35:38)

• Alternative Traditions from The Crew and Listeners:

  • Garage Sale White Elephant:
    • Find the tackiest, funniest gifts at garage sales and do a hilarious gift exchange.
    • “It became this really hilarious Christmas thing because it was like, oh my Lord, what are we gonna unwrap next?” – Melissa (33:36)
  • As Seen on TV Gifts: This year, only gifts bought ‘as seen on TV’—raising the stakes for gift-swapping.
  • Re-Gifting: Only use items already in the house for an unpredictable gift swap.
    • “We do re-gifting... take items that are in our houses...” – Jamie (37:05)

• Cherished Quotes:

  • “Going out and getting the present and then sending you the receipt for the present you bought for yourself is... a worse offense.” – Bert, about a sibling buying her own Christmas present (31:27)
  • “That's creepier than anything sexual you've said today.” – Bert, after Jeff jokes about setting up dolls for a kidless Christmas (36:14)

5. The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show: To Watch or Not To Watch (With Your Partner)

[39:59–50:32]

• Who Watches and Why:
  Funny speculation about who the audience for the annual lingerie show really is—frat boys? Women? Couples?

  • “You can’t be too invested in the show or she’s gonna be insulted.” – Bert (40:50)
  • “If you comment on your own, I think it’s gonna hurt her feelings.” – Melissa (41:32)

• Callers Share Their Traditions:

  • Brittany: Has a tradition of watching with her dad, even right after delivering her own baby—crew is both amused and creeped out (43:22).
  • Stephanie: Watches with her husband and uses it as an opportunity for shopping and relationship insight.
    • “I’m overweight, probably by about 30 pounds... but I feel great about my body because my husband lets me know I should be. I love the show... And I get a new bra every year because of it.” (44:58)
    • Bert explains: “Find the one that most closely resembles what your wife looks like, and that's the one you say verbally, out loud.” (46:00)

• Advice for Couples:
  Multiple listeners and hosts suggest discretion for men (“enjoy internally”), or to be smart about which model you praise.

  • “If you seem bored with her throughout the day, and then you turn on this Victoria’s Secret thing and then you’re all enthusiastic, you ain't having sex for a long time.” – Melanie (48:25)

• Lighthearted Takeaways:
  The crew wraps up with more playful banter, including using the show as leverage for new lingerie or how to act if caught watching alone.

[Bert]

Dear Burcha, so you're supposed to run the half marathon this weekend?

[Joanna]

Yes. Yes. So the night before when I got home from work.

[Jeff]

Well, first tell us how long you trained for this half marathon.

[Joanna]

About a week.

[Bert]

A week?

[Melanie]

It was a full marathon Thanksgiving morning, but there's a half and a full.

[Joanna]

And Jason signed up to do the full marathon. So I decided to be a supportive girlfriend and I said, you know what? I'll run the half. We won't be running together, but I'll be there in spirit and I'll meet you at the end.

[Jeff]

Can't you also support him by standing next to the road and throwing bananas? I had him in the cheek of his.

[Joanna]

I don't know why that didn't cross my mind. I don't know.

[Bert]

And before this weekend, I think you said the most that you ran in preparation for training was like, four miles

[Joanna]

or something like that. Yeah, like five miles, I think, was the most I've done. But before that, I don't run. I mean, I'm on a treadmill for 10 minutes, and I'm exhausted. And so I really had no training. I mean, I don't know how clearer I can be about that. So the night before, when I got home from work, I was like, you know what? I'm gonna go to the gym, and I'm just gonna see how far I can run on a treadmill. So I had every intentions of going to the gym, but I ended up going home and taking a nap. So I never woke up. And I woke up in time to go to the sports authority to get running shorts. Cause I didn't even have running shorts. And I have tennis shoes that I bought, like, five or six years ago still. So I am, like, not prepared at all. I show up at the starting line.

[Melanie]

I had.

[Joanna]

First, I had my dad drop me off. Cause Jason wanted me to get there, like, an hour and a half early. And I wasn't gonna have that to

[Bert]

do that silly stretching thing.

[Joanna]

Yeah, I don't need stretching.

[Melissa]

Whatever.

[Joanna]

I don't know what that is. I need extra time for makeup because they're gonna be taking pictures. So I had my dad drop me off, and everybody just looks like runners. Like, they had. Some people had the water around their belt. You know, some people were stretching. Some people were running to the starting line.

[Jeff]

You didn't even have shorts the day before.

[Joanna]

I didn't even have shorts. And some people were, like, running to the starting line. And then the best part is that my number, but I forgot safety pins. So I'm holding my number in my hand, and everybody's already on their shirt and they're ready to go. I had to run into Walmart, Begged the lady to give me a safety pin. I had to haggle with her to just give me two, because four was too many. So, anyways, so I get started, and

[Bert]

even before we get into the actual run, were you happy with the level of cuteness that you had achieved before you started running?

[Joanna]

Yeah, because I had my little pink Braves hat on. So that covered, you know, my. Like, my hair and everything. Yeah. Shoot under a hat.

[Melissa]

Yeah. Especially a pink Braves hat.

[Joanna]

Yeah, exactly.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Joanna]

So. And it matched my pink sneakers.

[Bert]

Of course it did.

[Joanna]

And Anyway, so we get started and I accidentally got in the line where you know how people pace themselves and they're like, oh, I'm gonna run this in X amount of mile.

[Melanie]

Or I'm nodding like, I know, but

[Stacey]

I. I don't know.

[Joanna]

Well, I absolutely got behind the two hour people. And I didn't realize it. And so we started to take off and they're running really fast and I'm like, why are these people trying to get away from me?

[Bert]

And then what's your rush, people?

[Joanna]

I know, it's a not a race, right? That's what they say. So anyways, I get behind these people and after the first.

[Jeff]

Many people find a marathon also to be a race.

[Joanna]

No, but you know what they say. You're not supposed to like, it's not a sprint. Yeah, it's not a sprint. You're supposed to take your time. And after the first mile, I start to kind of doubt myself. And I was like, am I really about to run 13 miles? Is that really about to happen? And I saw people start walking after the first mile. I was surprised. But I assume those people had no intention of really running the whole thing. Maybe they were just doing it in support of somebody else.

[Melanie]

And you had said on Wednesday that you had no intention of walking any part of this route.

[Joanna]

There was no walking allowed for me, so. Oh, and then I also forgot. Jason gave me these little jellies that are supposed to give you energy and I forgot them in the car.

[Jeff]

Oh my God.

[Joanna]

I was really not prepared.

[Bert]

So all the odds are against me.

[Stacey]

Yeah, exactly. So.

[Joanna]

But I keep going, you know, and we're running down Peach Street. So I keep picturing in my head, like, where I am. Cause I'm like, oh, I've been to that bar. And I've been to that bar along Peach Street.

[Melanie]

Like a bar crawl, but a bar run. So. Yeah.

[Joanna]

So we're running and then I get to the five mile mark and I see somebody I know on the side and I wave at them. That gives me a lot of energy, gets me excited. And then five miles is a lot for me. I've already been five miles, so five miles is already doable for me. Right. So it wasn't until I got to mile seven that I was like, I could probably stop now. You know, like seven miles is a lot. It's a pretty big accomplishment. It's two miles more than I've ever done. You know, everybody else is finished or everybody.

[Melissa]

And you're still running at this point.

[Joanna]

Yeah, but I'm Still. I'm still running. Haven't felt this high yet either. I'm actually.

[Bert]

It's a legend runner's high.

[Joanna]

It's alleged runner's high. But I quickly was like, you know what? No, no, I'm going to keep going. And the next thing I know, I'm at mile 10.

[Melanie]

Okay.

[Stacey]

All right.

[Joanna]

Exactly. And I just. This weird feeling just comes over me where I'm like, oh, my gosh, I've ran 10 miles. This is so awesome. And the only bad part is I don't have anybody around me to celebrate it with because I'm by myself. So I just start high fiving people on the side, you know, just to give myself.

[Jeff]

You're like, we're not done yet.

[Bert]

But still, now, I mean, the moment, the momentum of running 10 miles could certainly carry you the next twice as

[Melanie]

far as you've ever been.

[Joanna]

Ever been. And so I keep going, and I realize I'm at the last mile. I've got one mile to go. And I just pick it up. Like, I just start running faster and faster. This really inspirational song came on my ipod. It was almost like a sign. It was weird because.

[Bert]

Is it that new R. Kelly song that we play this week?

[Joanna]

Yeah, it was pretty knocked up. It was weird how I had that on my ipod already. No, it was this really song, and it just helped me out. And I finished the half marathon.

[Bert]

You ran the whole way.

[Melissa]

That's so awesome.

[Joanna]

And I finished in 2 hours and 17 minutes.

[Melissa]

Wow.

[Melanie]

Congratulations, Joanna. That's fantastic.

[Joanna]

And it's really exciting. And everybody's at the finish line. Everybody's high fiving you. And I have pictures. I haven't posted them on my phone, but they did take pictures along the way. And it's just. And I didn't realize I saw people crying. And I was. At first, I was like, why are these people crying? But the minute I saw Jason finish, because he finished after me.

[Melissa]

That's so cool.

[Joanna]

I was just overcome with emotions because I finished a half marathon.

[Melanie]

I ran 13 shows.

[Melissa]

And he did the full marathon.

[Joanna]

He did the whole thing.

[Stacey]

Wow.

[Joanna]

Yeah.

[Melissa]

Good for you. You guys should be on Amazing Race.

[Jeff]

Nicely done.

[Melissa]

I should cast you, too, because they

[Bert]

just don't say no. Like, no is not in the vocabulary. I gotta finish it.

[Joanna]

And I'll tell you what, when I was done, I thought I would be exhausted. I wasn't even that tired, really. I was like, I could have kept going. I could have. I mean, probably not a whole marathon, but I could have gone a couple more miles.

[Melissa]

That's so.

[Jeff]

Congratulations.

[Melissa]

I don't know what song that was.

[Bert]

Yeah, what was the song?

[Joanna]

It was. It was a song by Train, and it just has a lot of meaning to me. I don't want to get into it, but.

[Melissa]

Okay.

[Bert]

Oh, now I gotta know.

[Melanie]

Oh, yeah. Don't tell that to burn.

[Bert]

Okay. So anyway, so you do it. You're 13 miles.

[Joanna]

Yeah. But now I'm all. I'm into running now. Good for you. It feels like I went out the next day, and I was like, let's go run.

[Jeff]

Well, there you go, Melissa. All you gotta do is run a half marathon. Then you'll get into running.

[Stacey]

I love it.

[Bert]

Congratulations. That's fantastic.

[Joanna]

I'm not the high.

[Melanie]

I'm much older than Joanna.

[Bert]

Still didn't get the high. All right, Javi, that's awesome. Congratulations. All right, so, Javi, let's reset this whole thing, because it potentially could have been a very exciting weekend.

[Melissa]

Yeah. Before going home, I had gotten an email from this guy I went to high school with. And I didn't know him very well in high school, but he was, like, the great ahead of me. And, you know, we were kind of friends. Like, I think he dated a girl in my grade. Like, we didn't know each other really very well, but I got a really nice email from him that he was reconnecting with people and had moved back to Florida, had been living overseas for a while. And I was like, oh, that'd be cool. But I didn't really think too much about it. And then right before we left for Thanksgiving break, when we were in here and you guys brought. You brought it up on the air, I was looking. I looked on the Facebook picture. I was like, oh, he's really cute. Whatever.

[Joanna]

Really cute.

[Bert]

Yeah.

[Melissa]

And he looked. You know, I just remembered it was like, a familiar, you know, face or whatever. And so when we had emailed back and forth, we had exchanged phone numbers, and I had gotten a text message. Like, let me know if you come down. I look forward to seeing you. And.

[Jeff]

And that text message came, like, right after you sent him your phone number, right?

[Melissa]

Yeah, it was. Yeah, it was pretty much right away.

[Jeff]

Like, if he wasn't hot, it'd be creepy.

[Melissa]

No.

[Melanie]

Well, she didn't know what he looked

[Joanna]

like when he sent it.

[Bert]

So.

[Melissa]

Yeah. So. And this is somebody that. And you guys know I went to a teeny, tiny, little private school, whatever, high school. So everybody kind of knew each other, whatever. So it's a very, like, comfortable thing.

[Bert]

What was his reputation back in high School.

[Melissa]

He was kind of friends with everybody. Yeah, he was a soccer player. I think that's all I'm gonna say right now.

[Bert]

Okay.

[Melissa]

Anyway. Okay. So then I was like. I was like feeling really sick, like still, you know, kind of like head cold or whatever right before going home. So I was like. I just wasn't sure I was in the mood to do anything except veg with my family, you know? So I get home, I veg with my family for most of the time. And then Friday I get a phone call from him. He leaves a very nice message. Just wondering what you're up to or whatever. I was like, ah, still not feeling great. Don't know if I feel like doing anything or leaving the house, but I'll give him a call back. So we had a really great phone conversation, chatted it up, and then I ended up meeting out with him later.

[Bert]

You did?

[Melanie]

On Friday night?

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Joanna]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

And.

[Melissa]

And it was good.

[Jeff]

How good?

[Melissa]

It was really good.

[Jeff]

Really?

[Bert]

Look at her smile, man.

[Joanna]

I mean, did she go to dinner?

[Bert]

She started. She started smiling spontaneously, like during commercials two and a half hours ago, yesterday. And it was like. Yeah. I mean, obviously it went great.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

Is he a good kisser?

[Melanie]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

Okay, what else is he good at?

[Melanie]

That's all I know. That's all I know.

[Bert]

How long did you guys spend together?

[Melissa]

Well, it was actually. No, I am a lady.

[Jeff]

Melissa.

[Melissa]

What?

[Melanie]

Yeah.

[Melissa]

Oh, geez. You guys are disgusting. I'm really glad there's not video cameras in here.

[Stacey]

There are.

[Jeff]

We just don't know.

[Melissa]

So it was actually like sort of a group situation because I just wasn't sure how that was gonna go. And so one of my girlfriends that I went to high school with came out several other friends from high school. It was kind of like it all sort of evolved and connected and there was probably about 10 different people out. But it started with my friend and a friend of hers and me and him. And so we had, like, great conversation and it was really super fun. And it was.

[Melanie]

It that was that. Are you gonna see each other at Christmas?

[Melissa]

Maybe before that?

[Jeff]

Is he gonna come up?

[Melissa]

I don't know. There's.

[Jeff]

Is he here right now?

[Melissa]

No.

[Jeff]

Oh, that's ridiculous. It's crazy.

[Bert]

Is he in your car right now? Waiting for 10 o'? Clock?

[Melissa]

He's in the truck.

[Melanie]

She left the window cracked.

[Melissa]

A little water while we're in the

[Bert]

car from the group date.

[Melissa]

I don't have all my eggs in that basket, people.

[Bert]

Later on in the night, you guys broke off by yourselves and group date. Over and then hanging out one on one?

[Melissa]

No, he just walked me to my car.

[Melanie]

Goodbye.

[Jeff]

And that's when you guys made out?

[Melissa]

There was no making out.

[Melanie]

Hey, Jeff.

[Joanna]

That's cute.

[Stacey]

They've kissed.

[Melissa]

There was no making out.

[Jeff]

How long did you guys not make out for?

[Melissa]

That is way too much question.

[Jeff]

I thought there was no making out.

[Melanie]

She's having breathing issues, so she couldn't kiss for very long and she'd suffocate.

[Jeff]

Well, I thought Bert loaned her the app.

[Melissa]

I've taken enough DayQuil to, like.

[Stacey]

Hang on one second.

[Jeff]

You're a really good kisser, but I gotta go clear up my sinuses. Can you do me a favor? Hold this neti pot.

[Bert]

Did you just put one finger over your nostril and blow out while he was right there?

[Joanna]

Congratulations, Jenna.

[Jeff]

It's a baseball.

[Bert]

Clear.

[Melanie]

Are you gonna see him this weekend? You going down back to Florida? No.

[Bert]

Is he coming up here this weekend?

[Melissa]

No.

[Jeff]

Okay, when are you gonna see him again?

[Stacey]

Yes.

[Jeff]

Is he listening?

[Melissa]

Stop asking me questions.

[Jeff]

Is he listening online right now?

[Melissa]

I don't think so.

[Jeff]

Do you love him?

[Bert]

[Bert]

The Birch show alright, if you were at the Miley show last night, will you give us a call here real quick? 404-741-Q100 My wife took our 7 year old Hayden last night and I talked a little bit about this earlier this morning and she, my wife was just, you know, she's a little taken back. She thought there were some things going on on that stage last night that were more adult than they were for a 7 year old.

[Melissa]

What, like sexy dance moves or what was it?

[Bert]

I'd have to get her on to talk about it because sometimes with those

[Melissa]

shows like they'll have like videos on the screens on the stage or if it was what Miley was doing or what her dancers were doing or the choreography or I don't know.

[Bert]

404-741-Q100 I asked her the question, I'm like is, was it her clothing, was it the way she was dancing? And she said yeah, it just seemed a little bit at times. I wasn't expecting sexy at all. Now we've got a seven year old. So probably a couple of years ago it probably would have been like what's the big deal? Like if you don't have kids you'll probably be there going like what's the big deal? You know. But now that you're, you're there with your child, it really does change the way you view things. Yeah.

[Melanie]

Yeah. The only time that I felt that way is when I went to one of the Britney Spears shows and this was not, this is probably, God, I think three tours ago, you know, like, or three, it's been about three or four years ago and I noticed the little kids in the audience. So when you're standing next to a little kid and I'm, you know, enjoying the show very much because some of the songs are very adult and she was, you know, having, you know, you know, dances with the men on the stage and seeing this little eight year old girl next to me, that's the one time I thought, wow, this is. I don't think I would have brought a little kid to the show.

[Bert]

And you really do. Like, I remember when I didn't have kids and I would hear like a radio guy talking about this very same thing, I would be thinking to myself, what are you overreacting about, dude? But when you do have kids and you're there with them, it does change things.

[Joanna]

Well, Miley Cyrus does have that younger audience though, so you would expect it to be a little more tame.

[Bert]

But I think Melissa hit it on the head too. Is that that younger audience is getting to be in the teens now.

[Melanie]

Yeah. My feeling is if she was out being Hannah Montana. Cause I'm thinking from her perspective, it's like, how do you make that change? Because she's trying to by being Miley Cyrus now. You don't really call her Hannah Montana anymore. And then, you know, she still has really poppy songs, I guess where Britney Spears songs got a little more adult. But yeah, I can see from her perspective how difficult it would be to change that. Like, I want my original fans to still be my fans, but I'm not really looking for any new little kids,

[Bert]

you know, here's my wife, Stacey. Hey, babe.

[Stacey]

Hey.

[Bert]

Hey. How are you?

[Stacey]

I'm good. How are you doing?

[Bert]

Good. I'm trying to put my finger on exactly what you saw at that show last night that you thought, nah, not for seven year old.

[Stacey]

Well, it wasn't. I don't know, I don't want to be like over the top about it or anything or crazy because I mean, they see stuff every day. But when, when you all made the comment about, you know, she's trying to move into being Miley Cyrus and not Hannah Montana and she's never. I don't think you can separate that for kids. I mean, she is Hannah Montana. You know, it's there one in the same person. So I don't know if she'll ever be able to separate that. And if she decides to, then that that generation of kids is just going to have to go away.

[Bert]

But what was she doing? Was she like on the pole? I mean, what was she doing?

[Jeff]

Stay off the pole, Miley.

[Stacey]

She was on a pole, but she was when she would dance with some of the guys on stage. It was, you know, it was pretty sexy. And her outfits were not subscribed. They weren't too sexy, but they weren't clean cut either. So there was just a fine line she was walking that I kept. Like there were just little times where little things would happen. I'd be like, I wish he didn't see that. Or, you know, I wish he. She didn't have to go that far, you know, in that. In that dance move or whatever.

[Bert]

So she's gone from G to PG really, is what she's done.

[Stacey]

Yeah. PG 13.

[Bert]

Here's Susan here.

[Stacey]

More than PG, I would think.

[Bert]

Hold on one sec, babe. Susan here agrees with you. Hey, Susan.

[Stacey]

Hi.

[Bert]

Hi. Were you at the show last night?

[Stacey]

I was.

[Bert]

And how old are your kids?

[Stacey]

I have a nine year old that I brought.

[Bert]

Was there any time during the concert last night where you're a little.

[Melissa]

I don't know.

[Stacey]

Well, there were several things. I mean, number one, I thought her brother, the opening act, I thought was completely inappropriate. Totally inappropriate.

[Melanie]

Why is that?

[Stacey]

I. He was disturbing to look at. And then lifting his shirt up and telling kids, you know, that they want to take their clothes off and stuff like that, I thought was completely inappropriate. He looked like he was on drugs and he looked like he hadn't taken a shower. That was a little strange.

[Bert]

You said he was disturbing to look at.

[Stacey]

He was disturbing. He was covered in tattoos and I don't mind. I don't mind some of it, but it was just. I mean, his whole entire body was covered in tattoos.

[Bert]

Didn't Miley make some kind of point like that to you guys about her brother? She was like, you can't really judge. That was the point. That sort of. He. That's why he does this.

[Stacey]

Yeah, yeah. But you know what I mean, getting on stage with a bunch of small children and talking about taking your clothes off and stuff like that, I don't think that that was appropriate in the least bit.

[Melissa]

And that is a young crowd. I mean, Wendy and I saw it from the kids that are gathering outside with their parents to go into Phillips arena. And then the people through Q100 who won the passes into the soundcheck party to see her beforehand. Like, that is a young, young crowd. I mean, we're talking four, five, six year old kids, average age.

[Joanna]

There's not very many teenagers.

[Melissa]

Yeah, it wasn't like the tweens and the teens. It was like little, Littles.

[Bert]

Hey, Heather. Good morning. You're part of the Bird show.

[Stacey]

Hey, how are you guys?

[Bert]

Good, Good.

[Stacey]

I took my 8 year old daughter with one of my friends last night and we had really high seats, but I think if we were closer, I would have been a little bit more shocked. But mainly on the screens, what we saw is her just shaking her booty on there. I'm not joking either. It was. It was really a little too much for eight year olds.

[Bert]

Well, it sounds like this is the way that she sort of has to go though, if she. It almost sounds like it's perfect. Like if she's evolving now into Miley Cyrus, she hasn't gone completely R yet. And it doesn't even really sound like she's gone PG 13. It sounds like she's gone PG. And if you were there with kids like 7 years old, it was too much.

[Stacey]

Mm.

[Joanna]

Yeah.

[Bert]

Which is really what she's trying to do now.

[Melanie]

Cause I'm wondering if her people are curious if they're surprised by that, the ticket sales for that audience. Like, I'm wondering if they expected to be more tweens and teens and end up being young kids. But, you know, either she had.

[Melissa]

This is the end of her tour. I mean, she's been out for a while, so I'd be surprised if the Atlanta crowd was in a younger, you know what I'm saying, than the other cities.

[Melanie]

But I know that she either has to make a decision on being Miley Cyrus, who I think she wants to be, you know, getting older, or the Wiggles, basically. And she doesn't want to go the route of being the adult performer for kids, you know. So how do you do it, Stace?

[Bert]

When you looked around Phillips last night, was it mostly like 6, 7, 8, 9 year olds or were there some teens there too?

[Stacey]

No, there was a few teens, but it was. I'd say it was six years old to about eight or nine. It was young. It was really young. Her music's gotten harder. It's not as poppy. That Dance Party in the USA song or whatever that is, that's the poppiest. She was. She was hard. Rock and roll. It was definitely rock and roll. And her brother. The comment that the woman was making about the brother, first of all, he couldn't sing at all. It was a horrible performance. I mean, it was. It was like you doing karaoke. It was horrible.

[Bert]

What are you trying to say?

[Melanie]

She's probably talking to me.

[Stacey]

It was. He could not sing. The guy in his. The other guy in his band couldn't sing. And he was disgusting looking. He was just it was just not something that little kids need to see.

[Bert]

I don't know what disgusting looking means. Like just. Just because he's all tattooed up makes him disgusting looking.

[Stacey]

Babe, I'm telling you. I mean, I don't judge about tattoos, you know that I don't care. But this kid was. His hair was like greasy and dirty and he was really thin. And I mean, swear every inch of his body except his face was tattooed. And I just don't think 8 year olds need to see that. I mean, adults, fine. Rock and roll, fine. I totally get it. It's cool with me. I have tattoos. Doesn't bother me. But it was just weird. It was. It didn't make any sense that they were opening act and they were awful.

[Bert]

Hey, Melissa. Good morning. You're on cue 100.

[Stacey]

Hey, good morning. How you guys doing?

[Bert]

Good, thanks.

[Stacey]

What you guys need to understand is there's a big difference between a Miley concert, Miley Cyrus concert, and a Hannah Montana show. Mm, there's both. Okay? Seven year olds have no business at a Miley Cyrus concert. However, they can go to the Hannah Montana viewings. They're two totally different things. You know, one is her little stage show and one is her actual, you know, kind of grown up, more grown up self. And I mean, you guys, come on, she's dancing on a stripper pole on award shows. I mean, what did you really think you were gonna get, I wonder?

[Bert]

You know, we put, we're putting all these ratings now. We've got this new rating system for movies. I wonder why they don't do it for. For concerts they should.

[Jeff]

Yeah, I mean, they could for kid

[Bert]

only concerts, but I mean, Jonas Brothers, let's see the Miley Cyrus show, Britney, when she was making that transition, Britney

[Melissa]

Circus tour should have had a rating. You know,

[Bert]

obviously people didn't.

[Melissa]

I mean, some parents thought they were going to a pop show and people had to leave with their kids during the middle of that show because that was an overtly sexual performances and you know, that was the crux of the whole concept.

[Bert]

Now here's Casey, who's 18 years old. Hey, Casey.

[Stacey]

Hi. Good morning. How are you guys?

[Bert]

Good, thank you. Did you go last night?

[Stacey]

Yes, I did. I was 10th row on the floor.

[Bert]

Okay.

[Stacey]

And I thought it was a fabulous show, but I'm 18 and Miley's 17 and I mean, it's definitely not a show for kids at all. I would never recommend it for children, but nowhere has Miley ever said in an interview that this is targeted for kids.

[Bert]

Yeah, It's a real, for a seven or an eight year old, it's a real slippery slope. It's a real clouded, you know, like a blurred line. It really is. Especially if you have kids that are seven and eight because they know that Hannah Montana is a character. But still Miley Cyrus on stage is one and the same person to them.

[Melanie]

And she's still gotta sell Hannah Montana so she can't do things, you know, she can't. She has to squeeze out of that. And we've said this about every, like Disney star, you know, how do they make the transition to adulthood, you know, in their profession? This is it. And yeah, she is probably doing navigating it better than most, but still trying to cut that loose. But yeah, Hannah Montana's still this huge franchise that she can't abandon. So she can't, you know, really make these parents angry to where they never want to see her or buy her stuff again.

[Bert]

That said, those days you're like not so unhappy with her that you're bummed that you took him last night though, right?

[Stacey]

No, I'm not angry about any of it. And I'm not. I would not take him to a show again. I mean, I would take him again.

[Melissa]

Really?

[Stacey]

Yeah. There were just little bits and pieces that were glimpses of what I think is going to happen. And I think she's going to do the Britney thing and I think she's going to change. And the thing that bothered me the most about it is I just wish she didn't have to. I wish she would just be okay with being Miley Cyrus, but also this other person, Hannah Montana.

[Jeff]

Bert says that all the time. He just wants to keep Miley cyrus at age 16 forever.

[Melanie]

I think at 17 you're ready to grow up too.

[Bert]

I've been saying that about Taylor Lautner now for a couple of weeks.

[Stacey]

Ye.

[Melanie]

Well, I think sometimes for women and everybody's in school, right? So this is a adult comment, but I think especially for girls, there is a significant change in how you feel about life once you've had sex. And I think that my interpretation of these women that are in this position and once they go to older, you know, more sophisticated music is because in their personal life they have made a change.

[Jeff]

She's from Tennessee. She had sex years ago. Hey, the Bird show.

the Bird show

[Melanie]

so Christmas really is about children. That sounds like a psa, I'm about to say. But I mean seriously, anything you like about Christmas usually stems from when you were a kid. You know, because I love the blanky lights. Anything about Christmas? I love the lights. I love lit and the Christmas trees and anything that's lit. Cause when I was a kid it was fascinating to me and it stuck with me all these years. So I mean, everybody. And then if you have children in your home, of course you're gonna make this extra effort. I'm learning that you usually make an extra effort to make your home more decorated and more special because there's kids around, and you want to share Christmas with them and teach them all about the holiday now that they're young, so that they can have this experience to carry on with them. Well, in my family, the issue is there's no kids around. So it is my brother. It is my sister. Neither one of them have children. It is Katie and I. We don't have children. Mom is, you know, older, and she, you know, doesn't claim any of us. And, you know, and Katie's family, same thing. I mean, her cousins, you know, are older. And so it's. We realize that there are no children in our home for Christmas. And so my sister brought this up over the holiday while we were home for Thanksgiving and said, you know what? I really wish that we could come up with something, some alternative way to celebrate Christmas with each other since there's no kids around. Because, of course, when children come in to play, then we'll do the whole family's together. We have the tree, we have the presents.

[Melissa]

We do.

[Melanie]

You know, we spoil the kids. But right now, as adults, I mean, I'm gonna call her out. Okay? I love you, Melanie, but my sister went ahead and bought her Christmas gift already.

[Bert]

She bought her?

[Melanie]

Yes.

[Bert]

She bought her own?

[Melanie]

Yes, she bought her own. She let us know.

[Jeff]

She did that to you last year, didn't she?

[Melanie]

Yeah, I believe she did. This is a consistent thing. She's consistent.

[Jeff]

And didn't she just mail you the receipt?

[Melanie]

She may have. And she didn't get an issue.

[Jeff]

Yeah, it was, like, two years ago. I remember this because I can't think

[Bert]

of something less Christmassy than that.

[Melanie]

I remember even she wants to make sure. Now, I'm not saying it's the oldest kid thing or anything, but she wants to make sure that everything's perfect and she gets the perfect gift, and so she can only give that to herself.

[Jeff]

I remember being upset at that, and I'm the king of practicality, but it was a couple years ago, and she did it again. You came in and vented because you drew her in. Secret Santa. So she just mailed you the receipt, and you could mail her a check

[Bert]

that is a step higher than what I consider to be be. One of the biggest Christmas infractions is when you give somebody a catalog and you circle exactly what you want in that Catalog Stacey. Like that. To me, actually going out and getting the present and then sending you the receipt for the present you bought for yourself is an even. That's a worse offense.

[Melanie]

Well, it just shows you. It kind of shows you the temperature in our home when it comes to Christmas, because it is. Because it's us. And we feel like, I guess we can treat ourselves better than anybody can treat us in the family that we're. You know, it's so. And it's ironic that she's the one that brought this up, but she did. Want to know if I had heard of any alternative Christmas ideas that families do when there are no kids in the house.

[Bert]

404-741-Q100. So what do you do when. I mean, to me, it would just be the same as it would be with kids in the house, except ours is different.

[Melissa]

I have an idea. My family started doing this. Now my cousin has two little girls, so of course, everybody gets them gifts. And usually we go over to their house now that her girls, you know, because Santa comes to their house and that kind of thing. So they do their Christmas thing in the morning. We do ours at home, and then the big extended family does the big dinner and everything together. And we started doing this years ago, and we're actually changing it up this year. So there may be two ideas for you where we went out and got, like, the tackiest garage sale gifts that you could ever find. Okay. Like, the most horrendous, ugly. You name it. I mean, from lamps to paper towel holders to. There was this one thing that was this.

[Bert]

Footsteps.

[Jeff]

You're speaking to the sister of the girl who bought her own Christmas present

[Joanna]

two years in a row.

[Melanie]

That would screw Melanie, because nobody's gonna reimburse her for that gift.

[Burt]

Exactly.

[Melissa]

But that was our rule, is that it had to be found at a garage sale. And then we do the whole white elephant thing where you choose numbers and then, like, all the. And you wrap it up like it's a normal gift, like, all pretty paper and everything and, you know, ribbons and the, you know, tags or whatever. And then you. We would all draw numbers and, you know, you'd go through. And then it became this really hilarious Christmas thing because it was like, oh, my Lord, what are we gonna unwrap next? That's just, like, tacky and horrible and hilarious. So it was. It was about the family getting together and having fun and laughing at what each other found, you know, like crocheted oven mitts and, I mean, just the most random stuff you can do the

[Jeff]

same thing with DVDs or sex toys.

[Melissa]

Jeff says, disgusting. You're talking about my grandmother.

[Melanie]

And again, guys are creepy.

[Melissa]

Exactly. So anyway, so that was it for a long time.

[Bert]

Don't judge all guys on Jeff.

[Melanie]

And we can.

[Melissa]

Yeah. And so we had a ton of fun doing that. And then that idea kind of started. Well, over the years, like, there would be different garage sale gifts that would keep showing up year after year. And then whoever hosted it, whether it was my family or my cousin's family at their house, you know, or my aunt's house or my grandmother's house, we would stash the gifts. So whoever hosted would find all these garage sale gifts, like, throughout the year or whatever. So it just kind of became funny. And then now this year, we're changing it up a little bit because we've done the garage sale thing for probably the last, like, I don't know, seven years or so. We're doing only as seen on tv.

[Melanie]

Oh, that's a great idea.

[Melissa]

So you have to purchase something that is as seen on tv. I know that's. That's gonna make the competition for who gets to barter for it and steal and that kind of thing a little bit better. But they all have to be as Seen on tv.

[Bert]

People can't. Our Burt show community can't wrap them their minds around not doing anything children related with Christmas, because the suggestions are coming in that are like, you know, take somebody else's kids to shelters and help, you know, like, philanthropy type things, which I don't think is what you're looking for.

[Melanie]

No, I mean, we've. And we've done the angel tree, and we've done stuff like that. But, yeah, I mean, a kidless Christmas. And. And the one thing that we would do if my mother was younger would be take a vacation. But unfortunately, Millie Pete doesn't travel as well. So it is one of the. It's a situation in which a trip is not an option. But, yeah, it is hard to wrap your mind around a Christmas without children. But that is what I'm looking for, and that's why we're lost.

[Jeff]

Why don't you just set up a table in the house and put, like, dolls around it and give them all names and then refer to them throughout, like, oh, Kimmy, would you like some more eggnog?

[Bert]

That's creepier than anything sexual you've said today.

[Melanie]

It's an American girl Christmas.

[Bert]

Hey, Tammy. Good Morning. You're on Q100.

[Stacey]

Good morning.

[Bert]

Hi.

[Stacey]

I think Melissa needs to do a White elephant Christmas.

[Bert]

That one's pretty standard.

[Melanie]

Like Jan was saying.

[Stacey]

Yeah, everybody just brings a gift, and then you pick numbers.

[Melanie]

I think that's a great idea. And I love bringing this home to my sister now that she's already purchased her own gift, because that's what you get for donut.

[Melissa]

She can return her own gift. That's right.

[Bert]

Has anybody ever called her out on that and said, look, next year, this is not acceptable. You cannot.

[Melanie]

My sister. But yes, it doesn't do any good. It doesn't work.

[Melissa]

That is really over the top.

[Bert]

It slaps Christmas in the face of everything that Christmas is not supposed to be.

[Melanie]

You can't tell me.

[Bert]

Good morning, Jamie. You're on Q100.

[Stacey]

Hey, how you doing?

[Bert]

All right.

[Stacey]

Okay, listen, my family, we do re gifting. We just take items that are in our houses and just draw numbers and see who gets the best items.

[Melissa]

That's pretty funny.

[Bert]

Now it's re gifting with items that you guys did not give each other before. These are from other people, right?

[Stacey]

These are from other people in our houses. Yes.

[Bert]

Okay.

[Melanie]

Okay, cool.

[Joanna]

You should just do one of these ideas every year.

[Melanie]

Just change up the idea of where you're gonna get the gifts from.

[Melissa]

Yes.

[Joanna]

A different gift every year.

[Jeff]

What if, like, the gift next year is all stuff that you shoplifted, so you have to actually steal it?

[Joanna]

Merry Christmas.

[Melanie]

Jeff and the cops showed up. The Carter family Christmas this year.

[Melissa]

Millie Pete would be like, oh, I got a salt and pepper from Ponderosa. Just

[Stacey]

get it.

[Bert]

You're on the Burt Show. So this Victoria's Secret fashion show is tonight, right?

[Melissa]

Yeah, 10 o' clock, CBS tonight.

[Bert]

And I'm not exactly sure where to go with this, but like, who watches it? I think the ratings are pretty good on it every year. But I mean, are these like fraternity dudes just sit down. Or is this like, who's watching that thing tonight?

[Melanie]

Didn't this thing start on the Internet and it got such good, you know, good viewers ratings that it now is televised. So it started out online only. So I don't know because I have never seen it.

[Bert]

Me neither. Not once.

[Jeff]

Pay per view. I remember. Watch. It's one of those things that Jessica will put on and then I'll pretend not to watch. I can't believe you're watching this.

[Bert]

You got to be. That's a really tricky situation tonight if you're watching with your wife or your girlfriend, like, you can't be too invested in the show or she's gonna be in. She's gonna be insulted.

[Stacey]

Right?

[Melissa]

Like there's a potential to get really insecure if you were way over the top into it. Yeah, well, I don't think I Think your wife would be like, all right,

[Jeff]

I'm not throwing my stuff down and sitting crisscross applesauce on the floor like it's Saturday morning cartoon. But I think because of what it is, because it's the Victoria's Secret fashion show, at least with Jessica, like, there's an acknowledgement that those women are flawless. So you're allowed to watch that.

[Melanie]

There are things that you'll say that women will absorb that you don't know they're absorbing. You know what I mean? Like what Jen saying is, you better

[Bert]

sit there in silence. Don't even. I mean, you gotta really monitor. If you're a guy, monitor your breathing.

[Melanie]

Yes.

[Melissa]

If I were you, I would pretend I was on your BlackBerry or reading the magazine or doing something else. And then kind of every once in a while, like, take a look, check it out. If she says anything, then you can comment. But if you comment on your own, I think it's gonna hurt her feelings. It wouldn't mind.

[Jeff]

Anyway, there is a. I'll address that part second. But first, I wanna tell you about this thing I came across online yesterday.

[Bert]

Hey, Brittany. Hold on one sec, okay?

[Stacey]

Okay.

[Bert]

It was just launching into a two pronged story. We may be here a while.

[Jeff]

It was a thing that you rig up to your laptop. Like you use your. It was for a Mac, but you use your little webcam thing on your Mac or whatever. And it was instructions on how to turn the webcam so that it was pointed at the tv and then watch. Like you're basically watching, but then replay whatever's on the webcam on your computer screen so you could pretend to not be watching. So you could sit in the same room while it's on with your wife or girlfriend and pretend like you're answering emails. Meanwhile, you're watching the whole thing.

[Bert]

How offended would she be up in

[Jeff]

the corner of the screen.

[Bert]

And if you're a guy, I mean, you can't be in your living room watching that alone when your wife or girlfriend walks in the room.

[Melanie]

No, no, no.

[Bert]

She has to initiate the set tonight. Right. Because you can't volunteer for that.

[Stacey]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

Speak. A reminder. Oh, don't forget that fashion show. What is it? The.

[Melissa]

You can't even do that.

[Bert]

It has to entirely be her idea.

[Joanna]

Absolutely.

[Jeff]

You can just turn it on the channel and hide the remote.

[Bert]

Hey, Brittany. Good Morning. You're on Q100.

[Stacey]

Good morning, guys. Hi. Yeah, I was just listening. And I watched the fashion show every year. I love it. The whole. The wings and I don't know, everything's just so pretty, and I actually end up watching it with my dad.

[Joanna]

With your dad?

[Stacey]

Yeah.

[Bert]

That's kind of creepy, isn't it?

[Stacey]

Well, kind of. I don't know.

[Jeff]

Isn't that, like, taking your dad?

[Stacey]

And I walked in, I was like, what are you watching? Like, I'm watching the Victoria's Secret fashion show. I was like, I'll sit down and watch, I guess.

[Bert]

And then you got roped in. You've been watching it every year since.

[Stacey]

I have. And actually, my son's three years old. And when I was in the hospital after I had him, it was on tv. And I remember watching it then while I was in the hospital after I had my son.

[Bert]

So you would think, like, women that just delivered a baby would be least apt to watch a show like that because, you know, you're not feeling all that confident about your body.

[Jeff]

You watch that Heidi Klum, though, for motivation.

[Bert]

That's not motivated. She's doing more harm than she's doing good.

[Melanie]

Yes. Anybody in the spotlight that loses baby weight so fast is, ugh. It frustrates me that women in the regular world think, wow, they've done something special. And it's like, well, if I had a nutritionist and I had a workout guy and I wasn't going to work, you know, during the day, then, yeah, I could lose that too, in three months.

[Jeff]

I think it's positive energy. I think it's. Hey, it can be done. Hey, look at. Look at what's within your reach. You know, I think if you're.

[Bert]

If you're a woman, would you rather watch it with your dad or with your husband?

[Jeff]

Never your dad.

[Melissa]

It doesn't sound like a father daughter bonding thing.

[Melanie]

Oh, my God.

[Jeff]

Come here, honey. Sit on my lap. We're gonna watch a special TV show.

[Melanie]

Jeff, shut up.

[Bert]

It's a new tradition. Good morning, Stephanie. You're on Q100. Hi.

[Stacey]

Hey, guys. How you doing today?

[Melissa]

Good.

[Bert]

How are you?

[Stacey]

Good. Okay. So my husband and I watch it every year.

[Bert]

Really?

[Melissa]

You don't get offended at all?

[Stacey]

I don't get offended. And get this. I'm actually overweight. I'm overweight, probably by about 30 pounds. I feel great about my body because my husband lets me know so that I should be. But that's not the point. I love the show. He loves the show, but guess I get a new bra every year because of it.

[Bert]

See, there's always intent with a woman that's right there.

[Stacey]

Like, I don't get, like, the diamond gem one, but I get A new bra every year, and it's one of their new lines, and that's the ticket.

[Joanna]

And those are expensive guys.

[Melissa]

Bribery.

[Melanie]

That's the way to get you to watch it is to promise, honey, I promise you I will buy you a Victoria.

[Joanna]

That's what they're hoping for.

[Stacey]

Absolutely. But I also get to see, like, I don't know, it sometimes helps. You guys were talking the other day about how you compare butts or whatever at the. At the mall. Well, this is my chance to see exactly, like. So which model does he love? Like, he's always responding to a certain model. And thank God it's usually one that's brunette with long hair. Because I have brunette hair and it's long. So things like that. Like, I get to compare and say, okay, so that's the girl that he likes. That's the one I want to look like.

[Bert]

Okay. I want guys to listen to what she's saying very, very closely here, because you can learn a lot from what Stephanie's saying. Because Stephanie is saying when she asks her husband, while they're watching, which Victoria's Secret model is the hottest. Guys, listen to this. Find the one that most closely resembles what your wife looks like, and that's the one you say verbally, out loud. That one. And she'll pick up on. That's an important lesson right there.

[Melissa]

That's a good lesson.

[Bert]

That's a real good lesson right there.

[Melanie]

If you say anything at all.

[Melissa]

So no brunettes, Burt.

[Bert]

No.

[Melissa]

No pointing out any brunettes for you.

[Bert]

I would. I don't. Well, A, I'll be sleeping by 10 o' clock tonight, but B, that is certainly not something that Stacy and I would sit down and watch together.

[Melissa]

She wouldn't do that. She would.

[Bert]

I don't think she would right now. No, I don't think she would. Good morning, David. You're on Q100.

[Jeff]

And if she did, hide the golf club. All right.

[Bert]

Hey, dav.

[Melanie]

And moving on.

[Jeff]

Awkward moment. Awkward moments.

[Melissa]

But I'm not going to.

[Bert]

I appreciate you, Del, and everybody making noise.

[Jeff]

And we're back to the show, Hong Kong.

[Melanie]

Don't look in front of the eye. Don't look in front of the eye.

[Bert]

Well, there's a good reason, but I just don't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't publicly say it unless she knew I was gonna say, we're making noises.

[Jeff]

Making noises. Making noises.

[Melanie]

Don't look for the eyes.

[Bert]

Hey, David. Good morning.

[Stacey]

Hi. Good morning, guys.

[Bert]

Hey, what's up?

[Stacey]

I got a quick tip for the guys who would like to watch this with their girlfriends. They know they're going to be in the room. You got to approach it the same way that women approach watching, you know, a football game, any kind of sports. You know, men's sports where they're sweating and the bodies are showing off. You have to make subtle comments to let them know that you're interested but that you're not, you know, totally into it and totally enthralled with it. You know, you've had this in your planner for weeks now. Same way that women watch football. They're not watching football for the actual competition. And you know, they don't know the stats and all that stuff. I mean, that's not.

[Melanie]

That's not accurate.

[Stacey]

There are some. There are no select few. And I completely appreciate that. But most women are watching it to look at the guys packages,

[Bert]

to look

[Melissa]

at the guy's packaging.

[Bert]

If you get past the second argument, I think his first point is really valid. That if you're a guy and you're watching it tonight, you're allowed to enjoy it. Just don't let her know you're enjoying it.

[Joanna]

Yeah.

[Melanie]

And because you have to also, especially if you're in a relationship in which she complains about how you don't seem interested in things that you're doing together anyway. Like if you seem bored with her throughout the day and then you turn on this Victoria's Secret thing and then you're all enthusiastic, you ain't having sex for a long time, this is where you should be consistent. Seemed bored with it, but enjoyed internally.

[Bert]

Hey, Hannah. Good morning. You're on Q100.

[Stacey]

Good morning. I wanted to say that I watch it every year with my friends because it's so much fun. It's just a performance. It's kind of campy with all the costumes. And then don't forget you have the musical performances at the end.

[Bert]

Oh, I forgot. Black Eyed Peas are on this thing tonight.

[Melissa]

Right.

[Jeff]

That's why I'd be watching.

[Stacey]

And then this year it's the Black Eyed Peas. But it's just fun. The costumes are humongous and it's totally unrealistic. I mean, I don't watch it to emulate them, but. But it's just good entertainment.

[Bert]

That's the way to get into it tonight is go, hey, there's a Black Eyed Peas, a live Black Eyed Peas concert on TV tonight. Do you want to watch? And then you turn it on and there's all these Victoria's Secret models. And you're like, where is this Damn concert.

[Jeff]

You gotta start. You gotta start loving Black Eyed Peas. Like, you gotta come home wearing a Black Eyed Peas concert T shirt. Where'd you get that? Well, don't you remember when I traveled to the Black Eyed Peas show? I was on roll with him for three weeks.

[Melanie]

Man, you guys can pull off acting like that.

[Stacey]

Who knew?

[Bert]

Good morning, Andrew. You're part of the Bird show.

[Stacey]

Hey, guys. I was actually told last week when the catalog came in the mail that we're watching it by my wife. She's like, heidi Klum just had that baby. I want to see how she looks.

[Melanie]

And you're like, really?

[Bert]

Okay, now, is she hoping that Heidi Klum does or does not look good?

[Stacey]

Well, she. She watches. I mean, we watch Bravo all the time and all those shows, so she knows what she looks like already. But. But she's just. I'm listening.

[Melanie]

I'm like, okay, it's on Lifetime now.

[Bert]

Did you sort of like, mentally high five yourself when she made that suggestion to you?

[Stacey]

I've done that many times in my life with her, so this is just one of the many. But, yeah, it was totally. I was like, darn. But it makes up for me sitting through four seasons of Dancing with the Stars now.

[Bert]

So there's your payoff.

[Stacey]

There you go.

[Jeff]

Here, Bird show.
