WEBVTT - Reading Cursive

0:00:00.090 --> 0:00:10.420
<v Speaker 1>Mojo and the Morning Show, Mojo and Shannon, Kevin, Anna, Bianca, Zach, Lydia.

0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:16.239
<v Speaker 1>Good to have you guys here. Can I ask you

0:00:16.260 --> 0:00:19.400
<v Speaker 1>guys a question? I love it. Do you guys ever

0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:23.860
<v Speaker 1>still write in cursive? Do you guys ever do? aside

0:00:23.890 --> 0:00:30.190
<v Speaker 1>from your signature. Oh, okay. Uh, no, I rarely write period.

0:00:30.210 --> 0:00:32.170
<v Speaker 2>My kids didn't even learn cursive in school.

0:00:32.310 --> 0:00:32.769
<v Speaker 1>That's true.

0:00:32.970 --> 0:00:35.089
<v Speaker 3>My grandma still does. You don't write anything.

0:00:35.110 --> 0:00:37.990
<v Speaker 1>Like I have, I have, you know, my paper and

0:00:38.090 --> 0:00:41.110
<v Speaker 1>pen here that I write. Yeah. And I also have

0:00:41.150 --> 0:00:43.710
<v Speaker 1>a notable, which is like kind of like a, an

0:00:43.830 --> 0:00:45.949
<v Speaker 1>iPad that keeps notes and then it will send notes.

0:00:46.580 --> 0:00:50.159
<v Speaker 1>But I, when I write, I write printing wise. Same.

0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:52.099
<v Speaker 2>The only person I know who only writes in cursive,

0:00:52.540 --> 0:00:52.960
<v Speaker 2>Is my mom.

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:57.120
<v Speaker 1>She writes cursive. Yeah. The reason I bring this up

0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:01.810
<v Speaker 1>is my sister, Mary Jo, is a manager of a

0:01:01.970 --> 0:01:05.990
<v Speaker 1>bakery for a grocery store chain. We don't have this

0:01:06.090 --> 0:01:14.590
<v Speaker 1>chain here in Michigan. But she got reprimanded and written

0:01:14.770 --> 0:01:19.850
<v Speaker 1>up by her boss's. And the thing was, she was

0:01:19.950 --> 0:01:22.590
<v Speaker 1>reprimanded and written up because she had to leave for

0:01:22.630 --> 0:01:25.010
<v Speaker 1>the day, and she left notes on what needed to

0:01:25.050 --> 0:01:28.210
<v Speaker 1>be done. Seems responsible. And when she wrote the notes

0:01:28.310 --> 0:01:32.270
<v Speaker 1>for her employees, she wrote it in cursive, and they

0:01:32.350 --> 0:01:36.350
<v Speaker 1>told her that that was not appropriate to do. When

0:01:36.390 --> 0:01:40.470
<v Speaker 1>they wrote her up, was it in print? I actually

0:01:40.500 --> 0:01:43.070
<v Speaker 1>sent a picture of it. Oh, for real? Yeah. Don't

0:01:43.130 --> 0:01:44.630
<v Speaker 1>post it because I don't want my sister to get

0:01:44.690 --> 0:01:46.730
<v Speaker 1>in more trouble by posting it. That's insane.

0:01:46.750 --> 0:01:48.080
<v Speaker 2>This is the dumbest thing ever.

0:01:48.220 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 1>It basically said on the side, it said, it said, note, prior,

0:01:55.460 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 1>what does it say here? It says, please print when

0:01:58.300 --> 0:02:03.780
<v Speaker 1>writing instructions to make things more clear, to make.

0:02:03.740 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 2>Instructions more clear. Okay, I'm looking at this now. First off,

0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 2>she has amazing handwriting.

0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:07.980
<v Speaker 1>She does, doesn't she?

0:02:08.260 --> 0:02:14.080
<v Speaker 4>Second, it's like cursive slash print it's kind of like

0:02:14.120 --> 0:02:18.980
<v Speaker 4>a mix and it is very very legible it's beautiful.

0:02:18.780 --> 0:02:22.639
<v Speaker 1>When can i read what she wrote uh yeah.

0:02:22.460 --> 0:02:26.040
<v Speaker 5>Okay maybe not after you finish the other items on

0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 5>the back wall of freezer are the single count cake

0:02:29.210 --> 0:02:33.670
<v Speaker 5>slices small long boxes bring to shop put in our

0:02:33.770 --> 0:02:36.790
<v Speaker 5>cooler you should be able to get anything done you

0:02:36.830 --> 0:02:39.030
<v Speaker 5>should get everything done leave the sheets on the counter.

0:02:39.100 --> 0:02:40.800
<v Speaker 1>Wait, do you see the note up there, though? Did

0:02:40.860 --> 0:02:41.840
<v Speaker 1>someone else write that?

0:02:41.860 --> 0:02:43.660
<v Speaker 2>Thanks, Mary Jo, with a little smiley face.

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:46.390
<v Speaker 1>No, please print when writing instruction. Yeah, that was written

0:02:46.430 --> 0:02:49.710
<v Speaker 1>by the manager. Yeah, that was the general manager that

0:02:49.730 --> 0:02:54.850
<v Speaker 1>did that. His handwriting's awful. When did they stop teaching this? Like,

0:02:54.889 --> 0:02:58.240
<v Speaker 1>what are stuff that they're, because I haven't been in

0:02:58.250 --> 0:03:01.060
<v Speaker 1>school in forever, and I still remember when the kids'

0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:04.060
<v Speaker 1>math was completely different than my math, which I never

0:03:04.139 --> 0:03:07.750
<v Speaker 1>understood why they changed the math. It never seemed to

0:03:07.810 --> 0:03:12.770
<v Speaker 1>me to make things faster or easier. It was kind

0:03:12.790 --> 0:03:15.220
<v Speaker 1>of just like some guy thought of something different. It's

0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:18.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of like in church when they changed the responses

0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:21.340
<v Speaker 1>that we had in the Catholic church and also with you.

0:03:21.380 --> 0:03:24.660
<v Speaker 1>And with your spirit. And with your spirit. It's like,

0:03:24.700 --> 0:03:26.260
<v Speaker 1>why do we have to change this stuff? We don't

0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:29.150
<v Speaker 1>need to change this. We've been doing it for so long.

0:03:29.210 --> 0:03:33.210
<v Speaker 1>Let's keep it the same. Can't change Jesus. Right. Exactly.

0:03:33.550 --> 0:03:35.590
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is still saying it the way he's saying it.

0:03:36.130 --> 0:03:39.480
<v Speaker 3>The last time I did cursive was probably like sixth grade, maybe.

0:03:40.100 --> 0:03:42.440
<v Speaker 3>And then it just went away for some reason. Nobody

0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:43.280
<v Speaker 3>ever talked about it.

0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:45.360
<v Speaker 2>Because you type everything.

0:03:45.460 --> 0:03:48.040
<v Speaker 1>Wait, so they stopped it when you were in school? Yeah.

0:03:48.060 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so.

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:50.680
<v Speaker 3>I know for a fact, when I was like eighth

0:03:50.700 --> 0:03:52.410
<v Speaker 3>grade going to ninth grade, we didn't do it in

0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:52.820
<v Speaker 3>eighth grade.

0:03:52.870 --> 0:03:54.310
<v Speaker 1>I know that for sure. When did you get a

0:03:54.330 --> 0:03:56.770
<v Speaker 1>computer in school? Like, when did you actually physically? Because

0:03:56.830 --> 0:04:00.860
<v Speaker 1>I had Texas Instrument Calculator. That was probably... The extent

0:04:00.900 --> 0:04:02.380
<v Speaker 1>of my... You mean like a personal computer or just

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:04.740
<v Speaker 1>a computer in the classroom? Like when did you finally

0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.020
<v Speaker 1>start using computers in your school? I know for a.

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:09.780
<v Speaker 3>Fact we had one in sixth grade because I remember

0:04:09.810 --> 0:04:12.410
<v Speaker 3>playing Peaches and Cream, the video in the Beckham is

0:04:12.450 --> 0:04:12.990
<v Speaker 3>Reed class.

0:04:13.010 --> 0:04:15.250
<v Speaker 1>But it was in the... Like I had a school...

0:04:15.010 --> 0:04:17.010
<v Speaker 1>I had a computer in the school. You had a

0:04:17.410 --> 0:04:18.650
<v Speaker 1>computer lab. Yeah, computer lab.

0:04:18.670 --> 0:04:19.030
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:04:19.310 --> 0:04:24.450
<v Speaker 1>I never had like the actual... Like my, you know, kids... Actually,

0:04:24.670 --> 0:04:27.169
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Joe, maybe not Joe, but Jacob and

0:04:27.230 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Luke I know always got... Like they got like whatever

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.180
<v Speaker 1>their Microsoft tablets or something that they could take home.

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:35.620
<v Speaker 1>Because I remember I had to pay for them at

0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:37.200
<v Speaker 1>the end of the year because they effed them up.

0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:40.230
<v Speaker 1>We didn't have that. Really? I'm too old for that. Oh,

0:04:40.250 --> 0:04:42.989
<v Speaker 1>they had Microsoft. Yeah. We didn't have take homes.

0:04:43.730 --> 0:04:44.050
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:04:44.110 --> 0:04:46.290
<v Speaker 3>We had a computer lab and then some classes had

0:04:46.330 --> 0:04:47.510
<v Speaker 3>like a computer.

0:04:47.170 --> 0:04:49.550
<v Speaker 1>In there, too. Yeah. I remember that. I remember when

0:04:49.570 --> 0:04:51.930
<v Speaker 1>you got to go to computer lab. Yeah. That was

0:04:51.970 --> 0:04:54.980
<v Speaker 1>the most exciting time ever. You know, but you didn't

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:57.360
<v Speaker 1>back then. We didn't look for porn. I was about

0:04:57.380 --> 0:04:58.719
<v Speaker 1>to say they didn't have any restrictions.

0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:02.219
<v Speaker 2>Oh, see, we had we had like a keyboarding class.

0:05:02.500 --> 0:05:03.820
<v Speaker 2>And that's where Mrs.

0:05:03.870 --> 0:05:04.610
<v Speaker 1>Glusky.

0:05:04.810 --> 0:05:05.120
<v Speaker 6>Yes.

0:05:05.529 --> 0:05:06.150
<v Speaker 1>Taught us.

0:05:07.310 --> 0:05:08.130
<v Speaker 7>Why?

0:05:08.210 --> 0:05:09.790
<v Speaker 2>This is where the why is.

0:05:10.010 --> 0:05:11.089
<v Speaker 1>I like remember all.

0:05:11.029 --> 0:05:11.650
<v Speaker 2>The little rhymes.

0:05:11.770 --> 0:05:14.750
<v Speaker 1>I took typing in high school and it was Coach Styler.

0:05:14.930 --> 0:05:17.510
<v Speaker 1>And half the time we would end up typing his

0:05:17.589 --> 0:05:20.360
<v Speaker 1>lesson plans for his other classes. Like that would be like,

0:05:20.380 --> 0:05:22.980
<v Speaker 1>all right, here, come up here and type the gym

0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:26.580
<v Speaker 1>teacher was the The computer teacher? No, Coach Styler. Coach

0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:31.339
<v Speaker 1>Styler taught. He taught typing. He taught business. And he

0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:34.120
<v Speaker 1>was the basketball coach. We had to print the schedules out.

0:05:34.140 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 1>He did everything. Yeah, he was the varsity basketball coach.

0:05:36.460 --> 0:05:37.339
<v Speaker 1>What's going on, Nicole?

0:05:38.300 --> 0:05:39.050
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Mojo.

0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:39.960
<v Speaker 8>Good morning, everyone.

0:05:40.060 --> 0:05:41.469
<v Speaker 1>Good morning. What's happening?

0:05:42.190 --> 0:05:44.870
<v Speaker 9>I just wanted to say I'm a very rebellious soul.

0:05:44.910 --> 0:05:47.570
<v Speaker 7>So you tell me to do something, I do the opposite.

0:05:47.830 --> 0:05:49.630
<v Speaker 1>And if I would have got written up over the

0:05:49.670 --> 0:05:52.010
<v Speaker 1>way that I wrote, all hell would have broke loose.

0:05:52.089 --> 0:05:53.510
<v Speaker 6>I would have been a rebellious.

0:05:54.470 --> 0:05:54.990
<v Speaker 1>bad.

0:05:54.770 --> 0:05:56.010
<v Speaker 7>Mouth in person that day.

0:05:56.070 --> 0:05:57.310
<v Speaker 5>Cause that is wild.

0:05:57.589 --> 0:05:57.770
<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

0:05:57.950 --> 0:06:01.130
<v Speaker 1>My sister is very, you know, much similar to you,

0:06:01.190 --> 0:06:03.870
<v Speaker 1>like where she does not like to be told, you know,

0:06:04.190 --> 0:06:07.390
<v Speaker 1>like to her, that's common sense. Like, okay, I wrote

0:06:07.430 --> 0:06:09.630
<v Speaker 1>in cursive. I get some people might have a problem

0:06:09.670 --> 0:06:12.729
<v Speaker 1>with this, but to write up over that, but, but I,

0:06:13.010 --> 0:06:15.550
<v Speaker 1>I will tell you that, uh, it is interesting to

0:06:15.589 --> 0:06:17.230
<v Speaker 1>know that there are some people that just wouldn't know

0:06:17.290 --> 0:06:18.370
<v Speaker 1>how to read it, you know?

0:06:18.850 --> 0:06:19.190
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:06:19.490 --> 0:06:21.200
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I would have told them to buck up, buttercup,

0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:24.760
<v Speaker 6>and learn how to read cursive because it's 2026.

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 1>There's still a lot of people that write in cursive.

0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:28.950
<v Speaker 8>My customers write checks in cursive.

0:06:28.650 --> 0:06:31.550
<v Speaker 1>All the time. Yeah. Not all cursive is made equally, though.

0:06:31.570 --> 0:06:32.430
<v Speaker 1>Who writes checks, though?

0:06:32.770 --> 0:06:32.990
<v Speaker 9>True.

0:06:33.010 --> 0:06:34.010
<v Speaker 1>That's the other thing, too.

0:06:34.029 --> 0:06:34.479
<v Speaker 5>That is true.

0:06:34.730 --> 0:06:38.049
<v Speaker 3>Like some cursive is more difficult to read than other cursive.

0:06:38.170 --> 0:06:41.430
<v Speaker 3>Like your sister's, that's a very legible cursive writing. There

0:06:41.450 --> 0:06:44.410
<v Speaker 3>are sometimes my grandma will write and it's very difficult.

0:06:44.089 --> 0:06:46.030
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes to read. You know, it's tough for me when

0:06:46.070 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I see social media posts and it's in Spanish or

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:51.299
<v Speaker 1>it's Arabic.

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's a different damn language.

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:56.580
<v Speaker 1>Well, no, if you're, no, but you're on, I'm on

0:06:56.620 --> 0:06:59.040
<v Speaker 1>like some of our posts, some of our posts and

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:02.339
<v Speaker 1>they're written because they, they're listeners that listen to us or,

0:07:02.940 --> 0:07:05.540
<v Speaker 1>that speak a different language. And I have to push

0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:08.750
<v Speaker 1>these C translations. Have you seen that at all ever?

0:07:09.890 --> 0:07:12.970
<v Speaker 2>Well, of course that's hard for you.

0:07:13.090 --> 0:07:17.910
<v Speaker 1>I understand that. Why can't I understand Mandarin? I try

0:07:17.950 --> 0:07:21.660
<v Speaker 1>to read the Spanish one. But here's the thing though.

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I try to read the Spanish one because I can

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:27.020
<v Speaker 1>understand in a lot of cases when somebody's speaking Spanish,

0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:29.180
<v Speaker 1>I know what they're talking about just because I know

0:07:29.260 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 1>certain words. But I try to see if I can

0:07:31.490 --> 0:07:34.450
<v Speaker 1>read it too. What's going on, Kim? Challenging yourself, huh?

0:07:35.070 --> 0:07:35.630
<v Speaker 1>I know.

0:07:35.650 --> 0:07:36.050
<v Speaker 6>You know what?

0:07:36.850 --> 0:07:39.030
<v Speaker 1>Let me see if I can read this man. I'm

0:07:39.070 --> 0:07:42.710
<v Speaker 1>taking a couple classes at OCC this year. What's going on?

0:07:42.750 --> 0:07:43.630
<v Speaker 1>How you doing, Kim?

0:07:46.270 --> 0:07:46.610
<v Speaker 9>Hello?

0:07:46.890 --> 0:07:48.330
<v Speaker 1>Hi. Hola.

0:07:48.610 --> 0:07:49.170
<v Speaker 3>Hi.

0:07:49.890 --> 0:07:50.310
<v Speaker 9>Hola.

0:07:50.350 --> 0:07:50.990
<v Speaker 5>Good morning.

0:07:51.710 --> 0:07:53.870
<v Speaker 8>My name's not Kim, so that's why I got confused.

0:07:54.050 --> 0:07:54.770
<v Speaker 8>I apologize.

0:07:54.790 --> 0:07:59.850
<v Speaker 1>What is your name? I'll fix it. It's Tracy, actually. Okay.

0:08:00.310 --> 0:08:01.100
<v Speaker 1>What's happening, Tracy?

0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:03.700
<v Speaker 8>Well, good morning, Jeff. Well, I work at a school.

0:08:04.400 --> 0:08:07.820
<v Speaker 8>I'm not a teacher, but I do see I have

0:08:07.870 --> 0:08:13.480
<v Speaker 8>interaction with a lot of kids. And unfortunately, they don't

0:08:13.630 --> 0:08:17.280
<v Speaker 8>do nothing with the pencil anymore. Um, it's all on

0:08:17.300 --> 0:08:20.100
<v Speaker 8>the tablet. Um, you never see the kids walking around

0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:22.240
<v Speaker 8>with pencil and a piece of paper to do anything.

0:08:22.260 --> 0:08:25.230
<v Speaker 8>And I don't even know if they would know how

0:08:25.310 --> 0:08:26.090
<v Speaker 8>to write cursive.

0:08:26.150 --> 0:08:28.950
<v Speaker 1>How do they get lead poisoning? Then if that's the case,

0:08:29.270 --> 0:08:31.750
<v Speaker 1>do you remember when you were a kid and some

0:08:31.810 --> 0:08:34.739
<v Speaker 1>kid like stabbed himself with a pencil? It's in the water.

0:08:34.790 --> 0:08:35.010
<v Speaker 8>Nah.

0:08:35.220 --> 0:08:35.600
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:08:36.220 --> 0:08:39.930
<v Speaker 8>That's, I remember putting glue on your hand and pulling

0:08:39.950 --> 0:08:41.770
<v Speaker 8>the glue off your hand and eating it, too, if

0:08:41.809 --> 0:08:42.670
<v Speaker 8>you remember that.

0:08:42.730 --> 0:08:43.790
<v Speaker 9>I never ate it.

0:08:43.870 --> 0:08:47.670
<v Speaker 1>You had me at the peel part. We used to

0:08:47.750 --> 0:08:50.320
<v Speaker 1>sniff glue. We didn't really. I was a marker sniffer.

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:50.860
<v Speaker 1>Were you?

0:08:51.380 --> 0:08:52.860
<v Speaker 2>I loved those smelly markers.

0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:54.900
<v Speaker 1>I remember that we used to have to have a

0:08:54.940 --> 0:08:57.300
<v Speaker 1>number two pencil. And I used to think that if

0:08:57.320 --> 0:08:59.240
<v Speaker 1>you didn't use a number two pencil, it would not

0:08:59.300 --> 0:09:00.420
<v Speaker 1>Scantron or whatever.

0:09:00.500 --> 0:09:01.640
<v Speaker 2>That's what they told you.

0:09:01.700 --> 0:09:01.940
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:03.470
<v Speaker 1>What's going on, Sarah?

0:09:03.490 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 4>Hi.

0:09:05.950 --> 0:09:09.730
<v Speaker 6>Hey, I train a lot of new people, and I'm

0:09:09.809 --> 0:09:12.809
<v Speaker 6>up there at like 35 years old, and I just

0:09:12.830 --> 0:09:16.050
<v Speaker 6>don't understand why they don't use ChatGPT to use everything

0:09:16.070 --> 0:09:18.210
<v Speaker 6>since they use everything for that anyway.

0:09:18.910 --> 0:09:24.079
<v Speaker 1>So why they don't use it in what? To decode cursive.

0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:25.840
<v Speaker 6>Like if they just ran it, it would have just

0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:26.860
<v Speaker 6>told them directions.

0:09:27.179 --> 0:09:30.020
<v Speaker 1>Could you imagine, by the way, if we were in

0:09:30.059 --> 0:09:35.559
<v Speaker 1>school again now with ChatGPT, It would do everything for me. Honestly,

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.730
<v Speaker 1>I probably wouldn't even go to class. That's what Bianca

0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:43.349
<v Speaker 1>would be. Pretty much. What's going on, Brandy? How you doing?

0:09:43.370 --> 0:09:46.030
<v Speaker 9>Good morning. How are you guys?

0:09:46.250 --> 0:09:46.450
<v Speaker 5>Good.

0:09:46.490 --> 0:09:47.050
<v Speaker 1>What's happening?

0:09:48.330 --> 0:09:49.070
<v Speaker 2>Oh, not much.

0:09:49.130 --> 0:09:51.330
<v Speaker 9>Just working a little bit and listening to you guys

0:09:51.350 --> 0:09:51.970
<v Speaker 9>this morning.

0:09:52.010 --> 0:09:53.890
<v Speaker 1>Thanks, Brandy. We appreciate it. Do you like the fact

0:09:53.929 --> 0:09:57.010
<v Speaker 1>that we stay on until 1030 and we, you know,

0:09:57.870 --> 0:09:58.610
<v Speaker 1>are here this late?

0:09:58.690 --> 0:09:58.849
<v Speaker 6>I do.

0:09:58.910 --> 0:09:59.109
<v Speaker 1>I do.

0:10:00.140 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 9>Home and I can listen to it as loud as

0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:03.440
<v Speaker 9>I want or whatever.

0:10:03.660 --> 0:10:05.300
<v Speaker 1>I like it. What's going on? Well, I.

0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:10.540
<v Speaker 9>Was calling in about your topic about writing in cursive

0:10:10.740 --> 0:10:13.860
<v Speaker 9>and they do not teach that anymore. My children are

0:10:13.860 --> 0:10:16.760
<v Speaker 9>24 and 21 and ask them to sign a document and.

0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:19.959
<v Speaker 5>They just write.

0:10:19.780 --> 0:10:22.750
<v Speaker 9>Their first initials of their first and last name and

0:10:22.770 --> 0:10:23.429
<v Speaker 9>then scribble.

0:10:24.250 --> 0:10:25.250
<v Speaker 1>Isn't that funny?

0:10:25.530 --> 0:10:26.930
<v Speaker 2>That's what I do.

0:10:27.270 --> 0:10:29.740
<v Speaker 9>They don't know how to They don't know how to

0:10:29.780 --> 0:10:32.780
<v Speaker 9>balance a checkbook. They don't know how to tell time

0:10:32.860 --> 0:10:34.780
<v Speaker 9>on a regular clock. They look at their phone.

0:10:34.820 --> 0:10:35.000
<v Speaker 6>Wow.

0:10:35.020 --> 0:10:37.640
<v Speaker 1>That's an interesting one. The time one's an interesting one.

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:40.280
<v Speaker 1>They need to be watching this Rachel at this point.

0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:42.020
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:10:42.220 --> 0:10:44.120
<v Speaker 9>And they have no sense of what a dollar is.

0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:45.839
<v Speaker 9>I mean, all they use is their phone.

0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:50.060
<v Speaker 2>The balancing a checkbook. You don't need to know how

0:10:50.100 --> 0:10:52.439
<v Speaker 2>to do that anymore. They're telling the time though.

0:10:52.460 --> 0:10:53.520
<v Speaker 1>They still teach that.

0:10:54.460 --> 0:10:56.360
<v Speaker 2>They do teach that on like an old fashioned question.

0:10:57.070 --> 0:11:00.590
<v Speaker 1>I know there's, but there are some people I can.

0:11:00.610 --> 0:11:02.939
<v Speaker 9>When I had clocked the house, my kids had no

0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:06.580
<v Speaker 9>idea what time it was. And I'm like, are you serious? Well, mom,

0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:10.130
<v Speaker 9>that's in Roman numerals. Okay, but still, if you look

0:11:10.190 --> 0:11:13.850
<v Speaker 9>at the clock, you can figure it out, guys. So, yeah,

0:11:13.929 --> 0:11:15.170
<v Speaker 9>they just put their phones in.

0:11:15.290 --> 0:11:17.690
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to lie, though. I have an Apple Watch,

0:11:17.850 --> 0:11:21.910
<v Speaker 1>and if it gets set on Roman numerals, I get confused.

0:11:22.130 --> 0:11:24.630
<v Speaker 2>Who knows? Nobody knows Roman numerals.

0:11:24.750 --> 0:11:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Stacia, what's up? I got to really take a minute. Hey,

0:11:28.880 --> 0:11:29.430
<v Speaker 1>what's going on?

0:11:29.460 --> 0:11:31.339
<v Speaker 7>Good morning, guys.

0:11:31.580 --> 0:11:32.220
<v Speaker 2>Good morning.

0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:36.040
<v Speaker 7>I just want to piggyback kind of off of the

0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:36.819
<v Speaker 7>last caller.

0:11:37.860 --> 0:11:40.730
<v Speaker 1>That her kids are dumb?

0:11:40.850 --> 0:11:41.090
<v Speaker 6>No.

0:11:41.110 --> 0:11:44.630
<v Speaker 7>I have a daughter who's going to the sixth grade

0:11:44.650 --> 0:11:47.630
<v Speaker 7>this year. They haven't even started teaching them how to

0:11:47.670 --> 0:11:49.429
<v Speaker 7>write in cursive, but I teach her.

0:11:50.890 --> 0:11:51.330
<v Speaker 1>Why?

0:11:51.550 --> 0:11:53.590
<v Speaker 7>I went down the rabbit hole and somebody told me

0:11:53.650 --> 0:11:58.490
<v Speaker 7>that they could be Like not teaching our kids how

0:11:58.530 --> 0:12:01.000
<v Speaker 7>to write in cursive so they won't be able to

0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:03.960
<v Speaker 7>understand the Constitution in the future.

0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:05.860
<v Speaker 1>Really? Oh, my God.

0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:06.420
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Come on, dog. I don't know how true that is,

0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:11.000
<v Speaker 1>but it makes sense. Who's reading the original Constitution? I

0:12:11.020 --> 0:12:11.790
<v Speaker 1>don't know, man.

0:12:11.830 --> 0:12:12.950
<v Speaker 2>Read what it says.

0:12:13.309 --> 0:12:14.270
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you what, though.

0:12:14.290 --> 0:12:16.730
<v Speaker 7>Not that they're reading it, but they, I don't know,

0:12:16.770 --> 0:12:19.969
<v Speaker 7>we have to follow the rules and stuff. If they

0:12:20.030 --> 0:12:21.840
<v Speaker 7>want to be able to, they won't be able to

0:12:21.980 --> 0:12:22.099
<v Speaker 7>do it.

0:12:22.650 --> 0:12:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Hold on. Hold on. What are you saying?

0:12:24.020 --> 0:12:24.220
<v Speaker 9>Lisa.

0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to trust that person anymore.

0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.900
<v Speaker 1>Lisa, is your comment similar to Stacia? You know why

0:12:29.940 --> 0:12:33.980
<v Speaker 1>they won't teach us. Lisa? The Declaration of Independence.

0:12:34.020 --> 0:12:34.380
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:12:34.580 --> 0:12:36.559
<v Speaker 7>The Declaration of Independence, too.

0:12:36.820 --> 0:12:38.950
<v Speaker 1>They don't want us to know cursive so that we

0:12:38.990 --> 0:12:40.829
<v Speaker 1>can't read the Declaration of Independence?

0:12:41.270 --> 0:12:41.530
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:12:41.929 --> 0:12:47.350
<v Speaker 7>We're getting lazier and lazier.

0:12:47.530 --> 0:12:48.730
<v Speaker 1>So the only way.

0:12:48.790 --> 0:12:50.530
<v Speaker 8>Other countries are ramping up.

0:12:50.750 --> 0:12:52.130
<v Speaker 7>So we need to step up.

0:12:52.750 --> 0:12:55.190
<v Speaker 1>Step up. It's all cursive. That's going to keep us

0:12:55.250 --> 0:13:00.570
<v Speaker 1>ahead of China. We just got to learn cursive. That's

0:13:00.610 --> 0:13:04.500
<v Speaker 1>the key. It's not China. That's the key. All this time.

0:13:04.790 --> 0:13:07.800
<v Speaker 1>It was cursive. Do you think they even have AI

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:08.260
<v Speaker 1>in China?

0:13:08.660 --> 0:13:11.400
<v Speaker 3>They are AI.

0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:15.219
<v Speaker 1>You can't spell China without AI. Hey, there you go.

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:17.980
<v Speaker 1>The more you know. All right. Now let's pull out

0:13:18.020 --> 0:13:19.540
<v Speaker 1>a clock and see if we know what time it is.

0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:22.950
<v Speaker 1>Come on. Go see. Where are the hands at right now?

0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:25.360
<v Speaker 2>Although, Kevin, I did take the, what did we take?

0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:26.300
<v Speaker 2>The states test.

0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:28.260
<v Speaker 1>That was difficult.

0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:29.580
<v Speaker 2>I all but failed.

0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Which state? It's a blank map of America.

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:34.030
<v Speaker 2>And you have to fill it out.

0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:35.650
<v Speaker 1>You have to fill it out with where it says.

0:13:35.670 --> 0:13:36.910
<v Speaker 2>Do you know I got 31 right?

0:13:37.410 --> 0:13:39.829
<v Speaker 1>That's it. Out of 50. Oh, my God. Some of

0:13:39.850 --> 0:13:41.689
<v Speaker 1>them you forget. Especially when you get to one more main.

0:13:41.710 --> 0:13:44.290
<v Speaker 1>Which one's like the whole West Coast you missed? Or

0:13:44.410 --> 0:13:47.130
<v Speaker 1>was it up? The East Coast. Northeast. Where's like Delaware,

0:13:47.150 --> 0:13:48.760
<v Speaker 1>New Hampshire. Oh, my God.

0:13:48.820 --> 0:13:49.800
<v Speaker 2>I had no idea.

0:13:49.820 --> 0:13:50.460
<v Speaker 1>You threw me off.
