1
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,840
Speaker 1: It's the radio segment that's making bank this holiday by

2
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: selling pre made snowmen to the rich. Because wealthy people

3
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: don't want to waste time building a snowman tree.

4
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 2: Scratch themselves. That's what poor people do.

5
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 3: It's like artificial trees, but artificial.

6
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: I have a pre constructed faux man ships directly to

7
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: your home, placed right on the front lawn of your mansion,

8
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: to let your neighbors know you are better than that.

9
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: Do it with laser stories, the segment where we read

10
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: weird news stories around the glove, just like everyone else does,

11
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,880
Speaker 1: except we've got a laser. Those are the frost freaks

12
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: just known. This first laser story is out of Boise.

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: Emily Cloud and her husband own their own wedding venue.

14
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: It's on four acres in a romantic garden setting with gazebos, ponds.

15
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: Big fruit trees.

16
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: Just an idyllic place to tie the knot that could

17
00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: be featured in any Hallmark movie.

18
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: All right, I can picture it, you know.

19
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: Anyway.

20
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: Last November, Emily posted a TikTok offering the venue for

21
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: free to anyone willing to give her Taylor Swift tickets.

22
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 2: Much Such a good idea, well, they're so hard to

23
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 2: get good boy.

24
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: She claims it was quote one hundred percent joke, but

25
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: somebody took her up on it, and Emily thought about

26
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 1: it for a few.

27
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: Days and said, Ah, why the heck not.

28
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,320
Speaker 1: So. Jennifer Bowerman and her husband Mike were married at

29
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: Vintage Rose on October eighth, after giving Emily three of

30
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: their six tickets to Taylor.

31
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 3: Swift woes for everybody's still not to.

32
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: Go too, Jennifer says, quote each ticket was three hundred bucks,

33
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: so we spent about nine hundred dollars on a forty

34
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars wedding venue.

35
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: Yes, that's great if their first dance wasn't a Taylor

36
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 3: Swift song, I swear.

37
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: Before the wedding, Jennifer and Emily sat side by side

38
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: at the Taylor Swift show, and in the end, the

39
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: Bowerman's were extremely grateful and thanked Taylor Swift for it

40
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: on social media, saying it couldn't be a more perfect way.

41
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 2: The way that it's turned out. You know that there

42
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 2: is something in the bride.

43
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 3: That's like, oh, I know, Taylor Show's gonna show up

44
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 3: at my wedding age.

45
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: This next lazer stories out of China. A couple in

46
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: Beijing moved into their apartments six months ago when they

47
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 1: noticed something odd. The boyfriend, Ming said, he realized they'd

48
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: been living there all that time, and neither him nor

49
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: his girlfriend had paid one water bill. Oh and yet

50
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: the water was never shut off.

51
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, okay or something. Yeah, that is not

52
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 2: the case.

53
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,679
Speaker 1: He was puzzled, so he went to check the apartment's meter,

54
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: and when they ran the water, the tap reading failed

55
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: to increase, literally no movement at all.

56
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 3: So the gauge, yeah, yeah, like it.

57
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: Maybe the gauge was broken or something.

58
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: Well, something else was going up, and that was the

59
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: number on the gray water meter. It clearly increased when

60
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: the taps were turned off. So the couple called in plumbers,

61
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: who were stunned to find an extra pipe linking the

62
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: toilet and the tap.

63
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 2: Water inside that apartment.

64
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: So immediately Ming and his girlfriend got sick to their

65
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: stomachs as they connected the dots because they had been

66
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: cooking with, showering with, and even drinking toilet water for

67
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: the last six months.

68
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 2: Or are they still alive.

69
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's extra minerals and you know, vitamins in

70
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: the water. The plumbers immediately fixed the pipework and didn't

71
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: charge the couple.

72
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: Who were visibly ill.

73
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: Ming is now seeking damages from the rental agency and

74
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: demanding all of his rent back from the last six months. However,

75
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: the company says they won't give it to him. When

76
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: he moved in, they gave Ming the option to either

77
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: use drinking water or gray water by adjusting valves, and

78
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: Ming did not pick the right one.

79
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: No show, this is the gray water.

80
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 3: Anyone want gray water through their tap?

81
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: Probably someone who doesn't know what gray water is. So

82
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: that's what it means. If you're dwarding gray water, go

83
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: to the doctor. If you own your own water filter,

84
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: you're like, sure, give me the gray.

85
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 3: Get more than a filter on that.

86
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: Next Lazer story is out of Holiday Headquarters. Here's a

87
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: random question making its way around the internet. How do

88
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: you eat a candy cane?

89
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 2: Tasty? That's interesting?

90
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 3: Okay?

91
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: The National Confectioners Association asked fifteen hundred adults about their

92
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: candy cane eating technique, and the most popular way to

93
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: eat them is straight end first, and.

94
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 3: The bent end is literally meant for holding. You know,

95
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 3: It's like hold on to it while but your tongue

96
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 3: fits perfectly inside the little loop.

97
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: Though you start with the loop on a big guy.

98
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: No, you don't even need well, you don't even need

99
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: your hands. If you start with the loop. There, you

100
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: just latching onto your tongue.

101
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 2: It's a giant. But fifty five percent.

102
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: Of us start by sucking on the straight end, twenty

103
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,799
Speaker 1: eight percent go for the curve den first, and seventeen

104
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: percent said neither.

105
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: Oh, they break it down into pieces. It's way better

106
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 2: in smaller bits. I can say that, Yeah, crumple it out.

107
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 3: It's so fun to see, like the plastic edging when

108
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 3: you finally pull it down again and you've got like

109
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 3: a shelf that you've.

110
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: Created, you know what I mean.

111
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: Or when you're like, oh, I've eaten a lot of

112
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: plastic I didn't realize.

113
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 2: I like to crush it up into powder and snort it.

114
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: Seventy three percent of us prefer classic peppermint candy canes,

115
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: twenty seven percent like the other fun flavors, including mac

116
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: and cheese, bacon, hot dogs, pickles, sardine flavored candy canes,

117
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: and even ones that are supposed to taste like possum.

118
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 4: How would you know?

119
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:55,239
Speaker 2: You just trust it would. Yeah, we are definitely trying

120
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: that one on the show.

121
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 1: Four Possum flavored candy cane Rush Delivery.

122
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 3: I think they're made with gray water.

123
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: The first one to finish with or loses. I'm not

124
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: really sure on that one. It's next Lazer Stories out

Speaker 1: now thinks a good date should cost one hundred and

128
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 1: ninety six dollars.

129
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: That's a nice restaurant. I was going to say one hundred,

130
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 2: but that was just the average answer.

131
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 3: One hundred and ninety six.

132
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 2: One in eight set at least three hundred dollars. Nobody

133
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 2: got to what is I mean going.

134
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: A super nice restaurant or some kind of experience right,

135
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:42,119
Speaker 1: like even a sporting event.

136
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess that's true, but like a movie

137
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: and a dinner that can't be up that high.

138
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 4: Dinner that's not a good gain good dates, bro, That's

139
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 4: why the restaurants the average guy said two hundred and

140
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 4: twenty bucks compared to just one hundred and seventy dollars

141
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 4: for women.

142
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,560

Speaker 1: People said that they'll spend just over three thousand dollars

144
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 1: on dates this year.

145
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 2: Then you tack on gifts.

146
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: Guys estimate they spend four hundred and thirty dollars on

147
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: presents annually. Women only spend two hundred and seventy two dollars.

148
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,840

Speaker 1: around a third of people said dates should get cheaper

153
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,560

Speaker 1: Where do you even take them on dates? Oh?

00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 2: Well, with the leather factory foot locker. That's well, that's

00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,000
