I'm Kiana. And I leveled up my business with Shopify. Once I figured out that Shopify was a thing, I never turned back. I can create a site with my eyes closed. Shopify thinks ahead of us, you know, and it thinks about the customer more than anything. Every day I'm thinking about some other new business, but Shopify is doing it to me because it's so easy to use. It's like, I can't stop. I'm addicted.
Burt
Start your free trial@shopify.com the Burt Show. All right, so these were our predictions going into 2009. The first one was, will Burt have a Wii in the house? And you remember my wife Stacy was like, no video games in this house. We are not gonna be a family that has video games. Our son's not gonna be raised on video games. Well, we got one and we love it. So here are our predictions for that. Will Burt's Wii still be in his house? Still be in his house? The Wii game that my wife bought us for Christmas, Even though for 14 years, she said we'll never have video games in this house. Never.
Wendy
Yes.
Jeff
Yes. And she'll be playing it more than you.
Melissa
Yes. But you won't be.
Burt
That's a different category.
Katie Jo
I'm gonna say yes. And you're gonna have a Wii too.
Melissa
A Wii too? What is that?
Katie Jo
I don't know if one's gonna come out again. No, I updated you.
Burt
There's another prediction right there.
Wendy
Are you drunk, Wendy?
Katie Jo
I don't know.
Burt
So two predictions from Wendy there. That I would have the Wii and that a new Wii would come out.
Katie Jo
I don't know where I was at that day.
Burt
We still have the Wii in the house. She's not playing it as much as I do, but we're not playing it nearly as much as I thought we would. Yeah, but it's there.
Jeff
It's there.
Katie Jo
That's good.
Burt
All right, the next one was about Big Papa. Will Big Papa be revealed? Will Big Papa from Real Housewives be revealed?
Melissa
No.
Jeff
Yes.
Wendy
I'm gonna say yes.
Melissa
So is it gonna be confirmed by her on the new episode?
Burt
I think that's probably the question. Will it be confirmed by her or him that he is Big Pop?
Wendy
I'm gonna still say yes.
Jeff
I'm gonna still say yes.
Burt
Yes. Yes.
Katie Jo
I say yes.
Burt
I say no. That's a tricky question because she has never confirmed it, but we all know it to be that Lenajara guy, right? So.
Wendy
So I think that's a wash.
Burt
It's a wash.
Jeff
But they never confirmed it.
Burt
They never did confirm it. So it's really not. Whoever said that it wouldn't be confirmed? It wasn't.
Jeff
So you and Jeff were right and the rest of us were wrong.
Kiana
Dang it.
Burt
I like when that happened.
Wendy
Too much information, Jeff.
Jeff
Oh, sorry.
Wendy
One sentence too far.
Jeff
I mean, to confirm that.
Wendy
Thanks.
Jeff
Well, that's the only occasion.
Burt
Celebrity deaths. Which celebrity do you think will die in 2009? Wendy goes to go with Amy Winehouse.
Wendy
I remember Gary Busey.
Burt
Busey.
Katie Jo
I'm gonna say a sad one. Patrick Swayze.
Wendy
Duh.
Burt
Yeah, I'm gonna say that too.
Melissa
Yeah, I'm gonna go.
Kiana
That was a good also.
Burt
That was a really good one.
Jeff
Yeah.
Burt
Patrick Swayze.
Wendy
Yeah.
Jeff
Jen Gerard Butler.
Melissa
Oh, who's the woman who was on Dance with the Stars?
Bluff
I'll take her.
Melissa
Give me her.
Wendy
Cloris Leishman's still alive. She's still around.
Burt
Wendy. The only one that got it right.
Katie Jo
I know. Sad, though. I liked him.
Burt
Hey, congratulations. Patrick Swayze, the guy you won. It's great. Will Dick Clark ring in 2010? Cause he was in bad shape.
Jeff
Remember last year?
Burt
Did he even do the show last year?
Wendy
I didn't watch it last year. He came on for the. For, like, at midnight, where Ryan Seacrest did most of the.
Jeff
But he did a lot this year.
Burt
Yeah, he was part of it this year, right? Yeah. Will Dick Clark ring in 2010?
Jeff
I'm gonna say Ryan Seacrest will host it alone next year.
Burt
You're saying no?
Melissa
No, I'm saying no.
Jeff
Mm. Mm.
Burt
No, no, no. I think we're gonna lose Dick this year.
Kiana
We were.
Wendy
All right.
Burt
I just don't like that. That sentence in itself.
Wendy
Save that somewhat.
Burt
We're going to lose Dick this year is what I said. That was my prediction.
Katie Jo
That may be true, but not Dick.
Wendy
Wow. Your prediction may come true.
Burt
Far as I know, we did not lose Dick.
Wendy
Just kidding.
Burt
Dick was around, and he did the show. Yeah. Okay.
Jeff
Wow.
Burt
Chin. And smoking. Will Jen have quit smoking?
Jeff
No, I'm gonna go with yes.
Burt
I'M going with yes, then no.
Jeff
No.
Wendy
Well, let's just go.
Jeff
Wendy and Melissa and Jeff being correct.
Burt
Well, you did quit and then start.
Katie Jo
She's a smoker,
Burt
so. Yes. Jenna's still smoking. Justin.
Jeff
Not as much, though. Does that count?
Katie Jo
No.
Burt
Oh, like being kind of pregnant and Jessica married. Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel married. Maybe. Will Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel get married?
Jeff
No. I think he's gonna bail on her right before the wedding.
Burt
Really?
Wendy
Yeah. No.
Katie Jo
I say yes.
Melissa
Not only will they not be married.
Burt
Yeah.
Melissa
But there's gonna be some sort of Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears collaboration, either romantically or musically.
Katie Jo
Booyah.
Burt
Negative.
Katie Jo
I think so.
Burt
Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel. Engaged but not married. They love each other. I miss him.
Jeff
You're wrong.
Burt
Who was right and who was wrong there?
Katie Jo
I was wrong.
Burt
I think I said that they would be engaged.
Jeff
Yeah, you said they'd be engaged, so you're wrong. I said they would not. Right.
Wendy
You know I said they wouldn't.
Burt
Will Katie Jo and Melissa be married? Will Melissa and Katie Jo be married by the end of 2009? You gonna be married this year?
Wendy
No.
Katie Jo
I was gonna say yes.
Jeff
I'm gonna say no, because Melissa's always said if it wasn't legal, then she wouldn't want to do it.
Melissa
I'm gonna say yes, but both to men.
Burt
I'll say no also.
Melissa
No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
