Stephanie good morning I hope everybody survived their Valentine's Day we had a great night we were over at Shipwrecked I was working oh there you go yeah so I mean we we had a great night for trivia

few months now oh wow so he is like definitely in our Our Lives good yeah and they spend a lot of time together and they do like cute dating things oh that's yeah it is really nice I hate where the the whole date is like on the phone I'm like no is that dating like you talk to each other they do they like hang out it's really cute and they take creative writing class with Ted Murphy together on Wednesdays oh oh that's very like them already I know right so they I can write a sentence we like them yeah and I even said to her on the way home and she's like last night I said how do you guys even connect and then she said to me what do you mean I feel like he's a lab and I'm a cat and we kind of just get along I was like kind of like it was very existential for a 16 year old it made me laugh that's you know owning a lab right now and the fact trying to see him with a cat right I I just had the whole visual you go Lily yeah raise the cat yep so today is National singles day and the only reason why I'm mentioning is because it's like the day after Valentine's Day so it's like oh well also we're gonna do something for single people yeah things are happening in your computer that's freaky I know I'm just gonna leave it where it is hi cliff and continue on with my show the ghost in my computer I'm seriously like I am so many things about new software like I was very impressed you're like bouncing around screens and hooking stuff up I love learning new things I get annoyed with my boys came home for the weekend we did the football thing and whatever that's right to take all the old desktops out of the basement because that's what I need right now in the chaos of my house is yeah bring more chaos upstairs to take the hard drives out then they wanted I have like a brick of storage for all my photos and all my like it's my Backup backup yeah here's the cloud here's my computer then everything is really important sorry continue it's backed up here and uh so they were like you know oh can we use it because I'm like no nothing's gonna happen to it you have plenty of space I'm like no no one touches that like if the house is on fire I'm taking that with me that's how important that is and I'm like I could get a virus it could be like I can't get him the other doing all the tech like I was a [ __ ] and I'm like and then at one point I looked at one of them who is a tech person I'm like couldn't it though since these are really old computers and we don't know what's on him he's like conceivably I'm like then step away yeah right step away from my memories in a box electronic memories in a little brick and don't touch it so this is Lisa she is bringing on all kinds of home projects right now she's is redoing everything she was just on the phone with the contractor by the way your contractor has such a Massachusetts accent that I was like drawn to your conversation I wasn't eavesdropping yeah yeah it's like very very bossy they'll be over there Massachusetts accent so I'm listening like he's the best DW remodeling he's in Falmouth he's been awesome his son's doing the tiling it's amazing I messed up I thought it was Home Depot that messed up it was truly me I'm proud of you for admitting that because I never would I so wanted it to be them good morning Gail and good morning Karen thanks for joining us I ordered the wrong size doors and then I you know I had them shipped barn doors and I thought oh for sure they messed up I ordered 36s they sent 30s I go and get my receipt no I have very little patience to measure things I'm also bad at directions when it comes to directions of north east west south like if you gave me a compass I'd probably be fine but when I'm trying to explain okay first of all you said north east west south no one says that I just did North South East and West like even where you said that I'm like wait what I actually did it like an nxs song that's what he did Michael Hutchence never mind never mind no way too much music sorry no I'm challenged that way too especially when the car is like Head East I'm like I'm gonna how do I know which way is east I know that was my meme so I'm explaining my meme today if you follow us on Stephanie in the morning for my morning show yeah it was just like head east or Head West it took me four days to decide which direction that route 6 ran upon and every time I hear there's an accident Westbound and I'm like but what is that does that mean heading towards the bridge or away from the bridge like you have to explain it in like places to me otherwise I have no ability to place that in my brain of which direction that I place my brain facing Boston and I go east is out towards the okay but you have to have a physical moniker I do Boston is north of me and then I go from there yeah that's my Easter good morning Miss Kai I still can't do upper lower middle whatever capes they are right who is upper Cape it's us right here okay but a lot of people think it's Provincetown right but it's not up we have to go down that's that's down cake that's outer and whatever Outer Cape I swear they do this just so we're all confused and no one knows what's happening and then they then they change all the exit numbers just to in case we weren't having enough I can't yeah I absolutely cannot process any of those whatsoever so yes I am directionally challenged and I'm like please just tell me which way am I heading to the bridge or am I headed towards p-town that's how you need to explain it to me all three roads do that 286 A6 so we're good with that which way am I going space be in the right direction please so my other question this morning was what was your favorite food as a kid uh and I was very specific I was very plain I did not like red sauces I was always Buttered Noodles I was really weird and I loved Wagon Wheel shaped pasta so for my birthday it was spaghetti and meatballs always my mom's homemade spaghetti and meatballs and I think and I still do live on Peanut Butter it's like a staple like peanut butter just I eat peanut butter every day you would think my son just discovered what peanut butter was because they were raised in no nuts at school just because of the allergies oh yeah so there was a jar on the counter and so Mom what's for lunch Mom what's for dinner mom what's her snack is that that growing boy age where he's always starving no matter how many calories the kid gets because they're so active and busy yeah so he's all of a sudden I'm noticing like full loaves of bread missing gone caught like ghosted like where where is the loaf of bread that we just bought like and I was just like uh oh Mom this is so good and he shows me I'm like it's called peanut butter and it's a staple of most people I'm seriously I don't know how you don't eat it I don't know how that that wasn't a thing in his Vortex of good time snacks so I'm thankful that he's doing it right now well then it's weird so if you're peanut butter in the United States when we went to Australia years ago Vegemite is like our peanut butter and no no and they don't even have peanut butter over there well maybe they do now but I was like can I get people they're like no try the Vegemite I'm like what is that and I tasted him like no thank you oh oh okay guys talking about directionally challenged she said had to MapQuest it with printed directions like an animal she said long trips required highlighted AAA trip ticks and I once had did you find a payphone in Rhode Island and I missed my turn off of 195 for water a bridge over water and she said it's the modern equivalent of uphill both ways walking to school and I'm like yes I agree with all of that we had math Quest or we didn't get there I still love a good map though I feel like I was better when I was younger about finding places to orient myself yes okay because we didn't have the option to just talk to the talking lady box in my phone and get to where I need to get well now I do it for stupid things I picked up something in a neighborhood two miles from my house and I put back to go home stop and shop also because I like that also because I like to know if there's traffic or the best police there yeah and how long is it gonna take me and the way it took me I didn't actually have to turn around I was like oh this neighborhood goes through awesome race Lane here I am I didn't know I know my spaces that is so amazing um So Lisa is joining us from the Cape Cod Children's Museum she's the director of fun over there director of play I like to call it we have February vacation coming up next week weather is looking weird but okay and you never know here on the cape what they say is not always what happens it looks like rain for the next two days and then Saturday looks freezing cold and sunshiny so I don't know yeah it's a toss-up but we have things going on all week yep and if you have school age children this is a big message we're trying to get out we are pushing everything ages five to ten five to twelve like we are opening a brand new steam room we have a scavenger hunt that you actually have to be able to read to use and so yeah so so don't think that we are just for little ones anymore I love that yes we are for fun fun and also a Patty's Day party that you've got coming up that you is a ticketed event that's a ticketed event we're running an on a Sunday when we're normally closed it's Irish Fest it is sold out the last two years and it just gets better every year like we were playing with all these green up lights and sparkly lights like like just just new stuff every yeah I got an inflatable leprechaun that you hang out the window which is all about the Inflatables and thank you Kai I appreciate that scared the bejeebas out of my dog the Lord's right over it's great and he's like what's happening I think that that's a good gauge though if your dog's afraid of it kids will probably be totally afraid of it yeah yeah he was not having he ran out of my office and hid under a desk down the hall I'm like oh you poor thing well he's not allowed out of my office just you know he's he's just big he's like a big [ __ ] that he's a lab dating a cat no yeah right isn't that funny I had a good laugh over it yesterday like this kid she makes me laugh uh so yeah you're so Irish Fest the 12th yes it's the 12 days tickets are on sale now they already went on sale for members who get a discount and they can buy them through March 1st but we've sold half of them already yeah that's pretty incredible excited yeah so if you want to attend this event I definitely suggest that you grab your tickets because you will sell out and then you will not be able to attend yes and you want to be able to go I have looked at the day ahead of us as to what everybody is talking about and I I laughed because a lot of my friends are so into True Crime right now even Kai you showed up at one of my lives at knock about and she had her True Crime book and she loves True Crime podcasts but apparently we're biologically drawn to True Crime some switch that we have in our body that we are like preparing ourselves it's preparedness we need to know how to not or how to navigate a situation and what and we might be taking we might know what's so it's funny yesterday I found out you know the guy that killed his wife in Cohasset yes okay so first allegedly allegedly the body was incinerated at the place where my son works and his new internship for Mass Maritime he works at a trash plant and they do incineration and the FBI showed up but then I found out over the weekend I know the person who whose house had happened in he rents it to them nope I've known him forever I bought my first car from him I'm like that's Peter's house oh my God because I knew vaguely where it wasn't Cohasset horrifying yes I was like oh and my friend's like he's never gonna rent that house again yeah right this is like an American Horror Story oh man seriously yeah and this is not your first brush with weird crime murdery situations I feel like you had had a boss that murdered got murdered or was murdered by her husband I know it's always the husband if you don't look at the husband first come on so do yourself a favor since it's National singles day don't get a husband you'll be fine you'll live longer anyway yeah for sure I don't know mine's mine's been testing me they're always testing when we were they always fail we work together so it's we never Escape each other and we're trying to like put ourselves in boxes of this is work time this is parenting time this is us this time yeah this is other like projects and things we're working on it it's definitely a work in progress it is not always smooth and we are cranky a lot well my husband is a teacher and he's home for the summer the whole summer yeah every day at least a lot of activities for us to do in the summer she's like where are we going how are we getting done be out of here well now I understand why you're a contractor and you're doing so much stuff outside because you need to be outside you need spaces we need spaces to separate from each other I think it's good time away is also good I'm a big fan he's not but I am we're very opposite that way he's a homebody I'm a traveler he is a homebody and also he's a reader so I feel like he gets his own little world yeah and you're okay from upstairs to downstairs come on now and I can only say this because I was putting the app on his phone and I ran out of time so I know he's not listening good morning Dave hagner happy Wednesday yes it's Lisa from the Cape Cod Children's Museum here with me for we Wednesdays there are so many fun cute little kid things that I was looking at today most educated states can you name the top at least two Massachusetts California no not even in the top five Massachusetts came in at number one undoubtedly Maryland Maryland Connecticut Vermont and Colorado round out the top five Colorado right I was pretty impressed go Colorado so those are our top five this is according to wallet Hub and least educated West Virginia Mississippi Louisiana Arkansas Alabama I don't think anybody's shocked by the southern states being in the bottom five as least educated doesn't mean everybody from down south is like that so definitely don't blow up I just recently watched Sweet Home Alabama and I'm a big fan of Reese Witherspoon I'm watching like light fluffy fun rom-coms oh funny they make my heart happy and I could just like shut my brain off for a little while and watch dumb things garbage television that's my gosh seriously you you 90 Day Fiance that's me I don't know how you watch this show no one does everyone my house says the same thing and I think I've just kind of stopped watching it because it's just getting worse and worse but it's just funny and actually like 90 Day Fiance the other way because they travel they're in Nigeria they're in Pakistan they're in you know Australia like I like to travel so I get to see in around these idiotic relationships like what what where did they live yeah so I enjoy it and it's mindless that's the point the whole point is that it's fluffy and bad yeah and I'll have to think Lisa is a learned author here joining us she has written several books on train travel and also organizing children you're working on a couple of Workshop programs coming up which is really pumped for and I I definitely am going to be scooped up in this journey yes her and I have a travel podcast that is rested and we're bringing it back women travel better in Paris because you never go anywhere without a pair whether it's your husband whether it's your puppy whether it is a girlfriend to go to the bathroom with so for sure So Lisa and I are going to be be revisiting that and reigniting it she has found this fun connection to the United States of meeting new people yeah that I think it's been kind of incredible for you talk to people about that a little it's been it is really fun it's I joined this house swapping movement if you will but it is based on people not houses and that's what I like about it so there's tons of Home exchange places out there that are all about whether you're an Airbnb or you know like Airbnb just had their first profitable year in Forever this month it's first profitable month because the reignition of everyone like let's go let's get out of here let's go somewhere okay and everyone's like I'd rather be in a b b because you can control it you can cook you can have a pet you can have kids I love myself a nice hotel don't get me wrong that's fine sheets and clean up my towels please thank you I actually now don't want to see I want to live where somebody lives I like want to see how you live I want to go to your grocery store I want to go to your Parks I want to go to your library like I'm weird like that I don't think it's weird I'll do the scenic things too but I'm over the tourist stuff I'm over you know none of that does anything for me so this is much more about that and we have now we have three families coming to stay with us that's awesome everybody wants to do on Cape Cod yeah it's an exchange you can't just go take a cake actually most people yes so that's part of the reason we're doing a lot of house projects because I'm like oh oh boy but also your kids are out of the house now I mean I feel like you were downsized in our own house yeah which my my kid one of my kids is like this is ridiculous like you're not 80. I'm like no but I and you're an empty nester's Colonial house and we don't need the upstairs anymore so we changed our living room and dining room into a master bedroom and bathroom we're on the same floor now we don't have to clean heat do anything for the upstairs and if you come visit us it's actually ready yeah that's nice like just go do your thing there's lots of beds I eventually want to get to that point now I just block off my whole kitchen area because I pretended home they're a lot my kids are a lot when they come home but you know it it it's working for us plus 22 years in the same house I need to change the scenery yeah for sure that was part of it too I'm like I'm done if I'm not moving to a new house we're committed to the cape to retire I guess retire to live here forever I don't know yeah right do we ever retire I don't know I won't he will he can't wait but he's just gonna change his his station though he's not going to retire retire I don't think that he's just gonna sit there and let him yeah no collect dust in a corner like a book on a shelf he's got a few more years but you know look at Dave hagner who's watching our live right now the man is done more in retirement than he ever did as a teacher he volunteers for Habitat for Humanity he is like building how did you teach with my husband is that how we know each other I don't know I don't think so no I think he was in Pennsylvania area I feel like I know him from somewhere I'm sure you do I'm sure you've met him out and about because the man has more of a social life than he ever did more while working I know well see that would be me but he also needed a break from the culture of being a teacher and I can't even imagine what that looks like today New Jersey that's what it was I knew it was more Southern but he was a teacher in New Jersey I didn't know him though to our Educators hats off to you I had a very funny weird news story where there was an educator this uh Mr Fred he's on Tick Tock and he is a kindergarten teacher and he was really excited to get all these like fun non-candy things for the kids for Valentine's Day and he went to Tic Tac before he actually gave them to his class and realized they were adult themed and he didn't really look at the packaging on it so could you imagine had he brought that into the classroom in this day and age where everybody's got a phone and everybody's got an opinion and everyone wants to share it with you how that would have gone and flown in classes because you know the kindergartens probably wouldn't have noticed or even whatever like why is there a bud on this and they laugh remind me disaster averted show you someday someone donated a puzzle to the museum which is great we accept you know donations of good quality toys and books and things if not we give them away this puzzle I was like oh this is cool it's got a whale got a beach it's got a ton of people on the beach let's put this out and I thank God looked at it one more time it's all like cartoon people boobs hanging out butts hanging out a guy taking a pee and I'm like it's hilarious it is so inappropriate can you imagine if I had it out in a museum for everyone to contribute so it's on my porch now I'm working on it myself it's very fun I love it I can't wait take a screenshot I want to see the dudes I will that this is ever thought to drop that off at a children's museum that did it for Laughs they probably did yeah absolutely they're like I wonder if someone will notice probably no we'll just throw that out and they almost didn't speaking to someone will notice I saw that the Oscar Meyer Weiner vehicle was in Vegas and somebody stole the catalytic converter from it oh no that's embarrassing can you imagine calling AAA for that thing Kinda Yeah because that would be a really funny call here I am and they ask you what color your vehicle is it's the hot sauce it's the Wienermobile it is a wiener what do you want my favorite food somebody said one of my pregnant friends right now was talking um about her Valentine's day yesterday and she said I love this man who did not even Flinch when I said all I wanted was macaroni and cheese and hot dogs for Valentine's Day and that's what he made for her and I thought it was really cute I ate so much sugar over the weekend watching the Super Bowl and having the kids around that I literally texted my husband do not bring chocolate in this house oh please I do not I tried to give it all away last night when I was working at um trivia but um no people brought me more he brought me a single red carnation I'm like beautiful oh that's nice I think he got it at school because they give carnations I don't care whatever however it happened thank you thank you Kevin you thought of your wife that's all that matters hey I got him grape juice which is his drink of choice the expensive one and I put it in the center of the refrigerator and he said he I usually don't he doesn't care about this stuff and I'm like hey your gift's in the fridge and he opens the fridge and he's like oh crepe juice thank you and I'm like I love that you said the expensive one the very expensive one yeah this one I think goes to like the very expensive one I think of wine you know you're married to a school teacher when I'm getting that expensive grape juice we splurged and it wasn't even on sale how's that well then I know it was a big night watch out he brought chocolate anyways and I did eat it that's awesome I'm getting rid of the rest of mine tonight if you want to join me over at tomatillos for a little bit of music Bingo good fun Wednesdays get over your hump day yeah oh I brought that upstairs and then Lily disappeared it so that's what I'm hoping I love Ferrara rochers those things are my kryptonite and I need to get them away from me I moved them over here there's more so there are more chocolate there's always more I think my husband's like oh she seems stressed out give her a Ferrara Rocher I don't need them yeah please stop two days strong on my Peloton I can't feel my butt so I feel like I'm doing a good job yay I have no idea what's happening down there not it's numb we weren't built to sit on those bikes I'm sorry there's no you were talking about your Super Bowl and we had the laziest Super Bowl ever but what are you supposed to do Play We well we had no friends we did nothing like we were like made a few people over but Grandpa Joe and Grandma Georgina from Willy Wonka we sat in bed side by side and every corner we got the new snack that we purchased from Lambert's heated it up and went back for the next quarter oh but that's that's awesome it was so cool I heated everything I did everything that was easy to eat heated up did everything before the game threw it on the counter there you go on it food's here food's there fridge is there get your salmonella I don't know how long it's out there for that's fantastic I had a roaring fire so that was oh that's nice yeah I haven't had a fire all well they really kind of haven't needed it yeah it's been updated like that one did it cold snap that we got good morning Sethi thanks for joining us so you can stay since Lisa and I are reigniting our travel I saw that you can stay in the Swedish Museum so it's indoor but they have an outdoor setting like you're outside and it's just like a bed in the forest and people are paying for this experience and it made me laugh I'm like it's a museum with just beds in the woods I wonder what people would stay pay to stay at a night in the museum and like play games that's fun I actually did that when I was a girl scout when I was younger we stayed at the Boston Science we've done it with kids I'm thinking adults like this could be a good money that Night at the Museum would be really fun yeah it could be like a grown-up gym with kids they need to go home but with the grown-ups I can leave them there if it's kids I'm gonna be like at midnight can you go home now I'm asleep on the front desk yeah right no you just hire people to watch them yeah that could be fun I like that as a fundraiser idea A Night at the Museum yeah would you go I would I wish you had had more artifacts or something fun like could this come alive it would all be like games and fun stuff yeah there would be no artifacts there would be no learning plastic apple is gonna do something let's get weird who's cooking in the kitchen I hear somebody wrestling we could do a Spooky Night at the Museum all right there was a study that I saw that uh college kids who get less sleep get worse grades I'm like wow who who funded that study I want to know who's funding the studies of the dumbest thing I've ever read in my entire life and how do I get that job yeah thank you or can I just have the money and I'll tell you the answer without doing a study bam no need I'll make up stats I'll save you money give me half the money and I'll still tell you what the result is yes now we do need to do a sleepover at one of the cape museums I think that that'll be super fun I agree I think it's great I also saw there was another study that said if you eat right and you take your vitamins that can cure your broken heart and things to eat for heartbreak versus things you shouldn't eat and it was just like The Usual Suspects when I go to eat my feelings Chinese food pizza like all the yeah all of the stuff we've just discussed all of those bad things don't have those because you'll feel worse well duh also I don't need a medical professional to tell me that that's going to make me feel better is it going to heal my broken heart I doubt it but it's going to make me feel a little bit better physically which makes my heart hurt less you're gonna feel better in the moment while the food is going down as you always do and you can regret it later these are my favorite dumb studies they're so dumb I don't know what to do with it it's like someone had extra money like here just use this and and ask that question I feel like they just do that to be relevant and have talking pieces there's nothing other than that oh boy yeah no no right
