SPEAKER_01

Red, white, and win is still happening, but you've only got what four days left?

SPEAKER_02

That's it. And we need to say congratulations to today's winner. Patrika Leary.

SPEAKER_01

Patrick Leary.

SPEAKER_02

Patrick Leary.

SPEAKER_01

$250.

SPEAKER_02

And yeah, you can get $250. Friday is the last day for it. Okay. Which means you can still get on the app every single day and sign up. I would. Get on the Wink106 app, Twin Tears Magic, or My Radio Jams, and you'll see where it says 250, and then underneath it, red, white, and win.

SPEAKER_01

Nobody's stopping you from entering every day.

SPEAKER_02

Nobody.

SPEAKER_01

All right. Real quick here before I give you something. Will you help me with something? Sure. I I'm going to really be honest about something. And I haven't shared this with anyone at this point. Oh. I've been very concerned about the cyclospora outbreak. I know that here. Have you really? Because I ate a salad last night for dinner, all willy-nilly. I bought a hat of lettuce, and every time I look at it in the fridge, I stop myself.

SPEAKER_02

I'm like, come on, don't you want to lose 10 pounds?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Not that way. I just, you know, I mean, uh, because You don't want to do the show with a garbage can underneath your butthole. Wouldn't that be a fun sound? Um so I've I'm lacking a touch in the vegetable intake, and I freely admit this. Uh-huh. In fact, today's lunch is a baby cheeseburger and two hot dogs. They should mix in something. So I grabbed from the fridge a pack. Uh we got this at Trader Joe's, and I looked at it. Oh, well, I think that's fine because it's not Taylor Falls. Old. Well, yeah, exactly. But I I needed to look at this because, well, this was the last of the packs that I had in the fridge, and I can't find a damn expiration date on it anywhere. And you're like a maggot. Here, wait. Also, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Here you go.

SPEAKER_01

Does it still look acceptable to make today?

SPEAKER_02

Yes, it does.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Also, um, you know, I'm sure the sales of Taylor Farms have taken a drop, and I've always wondered.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know, they're all over Sam's Club still. I was in there on Sunday and they still have the bags of the uh chopped lettuce, like which I normally buy.

SPEAKER_02

That's what I that's what I was kind of curious about because how do they how did how does the store buy the Taylor Farms pre-packaged stuff? Well, I think. Like is it weekly, or do they have a contract that they have to fulfill and they just are basically keep putting on the shelves, knowing that less people are picking it up.

SPEAKER_01

I think that might be it because I did notice that even in the freezer section, they've now moved the toilet paper next to it. I'm just kidding, baby.

SPEAKER_02

By the way, the expiration date on this is July 10th. Like I know it's very, very cabbage-y, but I don't I don't like to mess around with no. So no, this is a no. That's a no. Okay, well. See, you guys have too much food in your fridge. We talked about this earlier in the show. You guys have too much food in your fridge. Every time I come over, it's like, who are we feeding? The whole neighborhood? This is how you waste food. I hate wasting food.

SPEAKER_01

So do I, but I I can't question that. You know what I mean? Like I can I cannot be doubled over. I'm sorry, I'm a whimp with that.

SPEAKER_02

No, I'm not saying you should eat that. What I'm saying is is that maybe you guys should buy just for uh food for a couple days. I I don't know why you guys buy so much food.

SPEAKER_01

Well, we do stock freezers because that's a smart way to buy things, you know. But uh sometimes it does get to be a bit much. Speaking of going to the grocery store.

SPEAKER_02

Because by the way, that's a it's called Dillish Salad. It's a dill pickle salad. Yeah. That would have been so good.

SPEAKER_01

I ate the other one weeks ago and just sort of forgot about it at that point. Anyway, yeah. All right, let me let me ask you what you think about this. Speaking of shopping, there's a woman that explains how there's now pink shopping baskets at now. This is happening in Finland. Okay, but if it's a good enough idea, you know that it'll travel around. Uh, and uh it they're doing this in Finland to help people find love. Listen to this. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I'm in a grocery store in Finland right now, and I've never seen anything like this. Okay, they have these pink baskets, and it's not so special because they're pink, it's because this basket is single. So it's a single basket that if you would like to find love at the grocery store, you can walk around with the pink basket, and maybe that's how you find a husband. So in Finland, you don't have to, you know, go out to the bar or the club to meet someone. You can just use a pink basket at the grocery store. Isn't that so funny?

SPEAKER_02

I love this because I don't want to go to the bar or a club to meet somebody, and we all have to get groceries, so of course we're gonna be there. And this reminds me of a 5k idea that I had years ago, which will never come into fruition, but that's okay. But it was where it was, I was gonna do this for Valentine's Day, and it was probably 10 years ago, where one bib would be your taken, one p one bib would be a certain like like it's let's say red means you were taken. So you had a red bib and it was your taken. If you had a green bib, that meant you were single. And if you had a blue green go. Yes, right. You had a blue bib, I don't know, maybe not interested or it's complicated. I don't know. I didn't really think about it.

SPEAKER_01

Swing for the same team? Yeah, I'm not really sure.

SPEAKER_02

But anyway, I love this idea because sometimes you want to approach somebody, but that's the scariest part, isn't it? And Scott doesn't even know when anyone's flirting with him when they're flirting with him. So I think that if you're at the grocery store and you both got the baskets and you're like, nice melons.

SPEAKER_01

Yes, that's the way to do it. Thank you. Okay, so you there was the the old adage years ago that a grocery store was a great place to meet somebody. Still is there is a safety safer factor there than there is, say, a bar or you know, just randomly a meetup.

SPEAKER_02

If you go to Wegmans, you're gonna meet a corning ink guy.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, if you're at the right Wegmans.

SPEAKER_02

Right. If you go to tops, then blue-collar America. Well, here's the And there's nothing wrong with that. Here's where I'm running into the problem is two things.

SPEAKER_01

One, I'll start with this. I'm walking in, all of a sudden, I just, you know, the the they're out of every other cart, and now I got a pink cart and I'm walking around and you're not single. And I nobody even knows. I would know you're hitting on me, you know, but I don't care about the fact that it's pink.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, I can I I I can Right, but you don't want to pick up the pink because you're not single.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, do I have to wait for somebody to bring back the other blue carts, you know, the blue baskets?

SPEAKER_02

Or you do how I do, and I just start loading up my arms. This is every time I go into Aldi's. I'm just I'm here for two things.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and then I load up 22.

SPEAKER_02

Yes, and then I load up my arms and I'm like, uh, and I'm running, dropping stuff on the way. So yeah, you can't take a ping.

SPEAKER_01

So now that's a problem. But here's the other thing, too. Are you really sure you want to advertise single and searching in the sense of you're in a public area?

SPEAKER_02

I don't know. I have to what's the difference between that and online?

SPEAKER_01

Well, because you have a little bit more control online. I would hate for someone to follow you out of the grocery store and potentially follow you home or do whatever. I don't know. I feel there's a weird safety thing with this. I get the cute factor of it. I get that, like, you know, oh you know.

SPEAKER_02

That you both are actually talking face to face.

SPEAKER_01

Well, if you've got the guts to do that, I don't know. That's why I got the basket. I I air to the side of the safety part that I'm not thrilled about broadcasting it in person. When you're on an app, you've got a little bit of a wall between you and that person, and to a point you've got some control. You can be like, well, slap and left on that. Yeah. Um, you're in the grocery store, you know, and sometimes think about this. And and this isn't even part of the safety thing, which sort of makes me nervous. A little, I'm not kidding, makes me a little bit nervous. Is the other part to it is let's say, all right, you grab the pink one, you are single, whatever, but you're also in a bit of a rush. Please don't follow me throughout the store.

SPEAKER_02

That's not when I'm getting I'm not picking up the pink one when I'm in a rush. But you can't. But hold on. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Aren't they aren't there people you haven't you ever felt like somebody sort of following you through the store? And you know, you kind of get a little bit weirded out by this. No. Really? I don't give off that vibe, I guess. But but I gives off the don't follow me vibe.

SPEAKER_02

Right? No, no, I give off the everyone talk to me vibe. Believe me. That's true. Go to Wegmans with me. It's terrible. Um, but but I think that when you're wanting to be social, and that's the thing, because dating is tough and it can and it can suck. So that way, let's just have it out in the open. Just don't follow me home.

SPEAKER_01

All right, you guys tell us, hit us up on the app, text us, or call us.

SPEAKER_02

Uh because I really like this idea.

SPEAKER_01

I I'm struggling on this one. It's more the safety part of it, more than anything. And also the chance that I'm gonna be lucky enough to walk in, and the only basket left on a Friday afternoon is a pink one. Now I'm like, oh, look at this. I I don't know. What do you guys think?

SPEAKER_02

You walk around. I'm not single, I promise. I'm not left. I just need cucumbers.
