Love, Cats, and Deal Breakers: Morning Brew's Tuesday Reflections

Ever wonder what makes identical twins live to 100? Bill and Jack Casey just celebrated their centennial birthday in England, complete with inflatable crowns and congratulations from King Charles himself. Their secret? Daily exercise, determination, and good genes. Bill, the "elder" twin by a mere 10 minutes, still exercises 20 minutes daily and credits computers as the most important invention of his lifetime. After serving together in the British Army and causing twin mischief in Malaysia, they're enjoying their golden years with painting, humor, and wisdom for younger generations.

Cat lovers will be thrilled to learn that science has confirmed what many suspected – mixed-breed cats and strays are genetically programmed to purr and vocalize more, making them especially endearing to humans. This evolutionary trait developed through natural breeding might influence your next pet adoption decision, suggesting rescues could provide the chattiest, most affectionate companions.

The Morning Brew crew delves into relationship territory with an entertaining discussion about dealbreakers that even love can't conquer. From chewing with an open mouth (which Jineane admits has ended multiple relationships) to a 38-year-old man calling his mother "mommy," the hosts hilariously dissect which annoying habits might be tolerable versus absolute relationship-enders. The segment continues with Paul from Beaumont, who reveals he could accept a partner with ten cats but draws the line at ketchup on steak. The show wraps with egg trivia for National Egg Day, culminating in Paul's cautionary tale about consuming 36 hard-boiled eggs in one weekend – a decision that apparently warranted medical intervention!

Morning Brew Introduction

Speaker 1 0:00

From the Horn Auto Center Studios Chris Bennett and the Morning Brew. Janine, are you over there? Yes, I am. Good morning, good morning, good morning, happy. Talk about something good. Tuesday, you ready to share some good news with each other? Yes, alright, I'll go first when we come back. We'll get yours here we go, here's mine. Today's Feel Good story comes from across the pond. That's right, we're identical twins. Bill and Jack Casey just celebrated their 100th birthday. Oh, my gosh, oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 0:32

They celebrated together in England and the centenarians, I think, is what they're called. They partied in style. They had cake, drinks, inflatable crowns, birthday cards from King Charles himself. The king contacted them on their birthday. Bill the older twin by 10 minutes he's a lot older credits his long life to clean living, daily exercise, determination and good genes. Janine, I don't have any of those, so it's not looking good for me.

Speaker 1 1:04

He still does 20 minutes of exercise a day and says the most important invention in his lifetime is the computer with all its amazing possibilities. Both these twins served together in the British Army and spent 15 months in Malaysia, where they got into plenty of twin-related mischief. And now they're both retired. I would hope so. They're 100 years old. Bill spends his days painting and making his neighbors laugh at his retirement home. His advice to the younger generation get into sports and stay active. Happy 100th birthday to those twins. That's some good news. All right, janine, let's hear your good news.

Speaker 3 1:43

All righty and my good news story. It's a little short one, but it's super cute. Do you know that researchers have found that the more cats purr like a cat purr is very soothing and the more people are likely to love that cat? Okay, when they purr and they're purring all over them. Well, it turns out that mixed-breed cats and strays are more likely to have it. It's a genetic thing, it's an evolution of the cats mixing together somehow. So if you are thinking of a cat in your life or a kitten in your life, a rescue or a mixed breed instead of a purebred might be what you're looking for. So there you go. That new study found that a specific gene that makes cats purr and vocalize a lot more of the mixed breed cats have that gene.

Speaker 1 2:29

So there you go, nice. I don't think I could purr, let me try.

Speaker 2 2:32

See it.

Speaker 1 2:34

Oh wow, oh dang, I just, I just, I can purr. I can purr baby.

Speaker 3 2:41

Yeah, but it's a chatty cat, so people like chatty cats.

Speaker 1 2:49

It is love conquers all day, janine, so I want to find out does love conquer all, or maybe not?

Speaker 2 2:57

Maybe there's some deal breakers.

Speaker 1 3:00

So we're going to find out what are some deal breakers to Janine Ford, you ready.

Speaker 3 3:04

Yes, I'm ready.

Speaker 1 3:06

My husband chews like a goat. Deal breaker.

Speaker 3 3:12

That's a deal breaker for me. Sorry, I just can't, but we know that we've talked about this before. I've missed it. Messaphonia, they call it. If you chew with your mouth open. I've pictured your death. So that's basically the problem there. Yeah, sorry, because that's probably a deal breaker. I stopped dating more people because the way they chewed oh my gosh. Actually, yes, yeah, uh, next one.

Speaker 1 3:32

My boyfriend talks during every movie, even one he's never seen.

Speaker 3 3:38

It's pretty annoying too. No, I don't think it's a deal breaker. I think you could say so. I don't know. I don't want to lash out at everybody for everything.

Speaker 1 3:48

Okay, you're going to be a little loving.

Speaker 3 3:50

Yeah, yeah, that one.

Speaker 1 3:51

So love conquers all. In that case, what about? He's 38 and he still calls his mom mommy?

Speaker 3 3:57

Oh, that is horrible. That's a deal breaker. What's wrong? No, mommy, hey mommy. Well, you know, and at some point she's going to pass away. I don't know, maybe not a deal breaker, I guess.

Speaker 1 4:11

All right, it's just gross. What about he wears socks with sandals?

Speaker 3 4:17

Oh, that's horrible. That's what my dad used to do. Oh yeah, yeah, not a deal breaker Again, just gross.

Speaker 1 4:24

We're finding out that love does not necessarily conquer all. Jeez Louise. Last one he uses a baby voice every time he orders food.

Speaker 3 4:36

Oh my gosh. What is wrong with people I don't know. Is that the same guy that calls his mom mommy? Probably I don't know. Yeah, that's a deal breaker.

Speaker 2 4:44

Yeah.

Speaker 1 4:46

That was Love Conquers. All except for a bunch of stuff, apparently. We love you, janine.

Speaker 3 4:52

Thanks for having fun with the steak. Love you stuff. Apparently we love you, janine. Thanks for having fun with this tape. All right, have a good one. Bye-bye, bye-bye.

Speaker 2 4:56

Woo, that's my blog, because Paul Beaumont said so.

Speaker 1 5:00

Yee-yee, yee-yee. It's everyone's favorite redneck from Beaumont, texas. It's Paul from Beaumont. Today, paul is love conquers all day. We found out that love does not conquer all. There are some deal breakers, according to Janine Ford. I'd like to play a game with you, called Deal Breaker or no Deal Breaker, to see if love truly does conquer all. You really Am I really.

Speaker 2 5:27

Are you really?

Speaker 1 5:28

Are you really? Are you ready? I'm doing like five things at once. All right, here we go. Deal breaker, or true love. She's sweet, cooks like mama and loves country music, but she owns 10 cats and they all sleep in bed with her. Is that a deal breaker? Heck, no.

Speaker 2 5:46

Oh, that is not a deal breaker, no man, she likes cats, yeah, she likes cats and she cooks good. Man, that's a winner, winner, chicken dinner.

Speaker 1 5:57

Ten cats, though, that's not too many.

Speaker 2 6:00

I mean, I'm not a lot of kids. You're changing that cat litter box about every 30 minutes.

Speaker 1 6:06

All right. Next one she's got a lifted truck, listens to Merle Haggard and bakes pies from scratch, but she refuses to pump her own gas. Ever Deal breaker, yeah that's a deal breaker.

Speaker 2 6:20

Well, I can't say deal breaker, because every time Rhonda wants me to go town with her and it's something fun it always ends up like I put gas in the car because it's on empty.

Speaker 1 6:32

So yeah, it's not necessarily a deal breaker. Okay, she's a looker, likes long rides and makes a mean meatloaf, but she insists on calling your truck Truckie Poo.

Speaker 2 6:46

Don't call my truck Truckie Poo.

Speaker 1 6:50

Have you named your new Chevy yet?

Speaker 2 6:54

No, I haven't, Really haven't thought about it. It's just bad. It's just one of the baddest Chevys on the road.

Speaker 1 7:02

It doesn't need a name.

Speaker 2 7:03

It'll take on the flood, it'll take on the rocks, it'll take on the highway, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 7:09

Oh, there we go. All right, last deal breaker she's everything you ever wanted, but she puts ketchup on steak every single time and it's a steak you cooked Bye. That is a deal breaker. We are learning. Oh, go ahead.

Speaker 2 7:26

Yeah, no, you put ketchup on a steak. Yeah, man, somebody didn't cook it right. We are learning that you don't even have to use A1.

Speaker 1 7:38

You don't need nothing on a good cooked steak, paul has found a new television series and he wants to tell us all about this brand-new TV series he just found out about and how great it is. What TV series are you watching? What are you reviewing?
