About last night at the Pistons game...

Cross-exam on WNIC, something we do every Tuesday. Allison, how's it work? We're going to ask each other three questions. They could be silly. They most likely will be. Maybe serious. Play along in your car with your co-workers at the dinner table with your family. Use your own names. There's only three answers you can give when we play. It's Jay, Allison, or Chelsea. Holiday-inspired? Yes, absolutely. Question number one. Who's most likely out of the three of us to have a full-blown meltdown untangling Christmas lights? Oh, my God. That's so easy. Who would have a full-blown meltdown? Oh, my God. I can see it. I can see it. I certainly can hear it. Yeah. Question number two. Who is most likely to steal a parking spot from someone who is waiting for, you know, who's most likely to steal a parking spot from someone who's been waiting? We wouldn't do that, but one of us of the three most likely would. Yeah. Yeah. It's like a very vivid memory. But we really wouldn't do that. Of me being in a packed mall parking lot with my parents. Yeah. And my dad waiting for a parking spot. And someone did it? I think my dad got out and tried to fight him. Oh, no. Yeah, my dad was that guy back in the day. Do you remember? It's over in the malls, though. The malls would be so packed that you would be circling the parking lot for a spot and then you'd end up all the way in the very, very back and take you like 10 minutes to walk into the mall. The heyday of malls. Wow. By the way, a public service announcement. If you're going to the Somerset Collection, stop circling in front of Macy's and just give yourself an extra 30 seconds and drive down to Nordstrom. There are more spots over there. You can circle in front of that Macy's all day. You're not going to get a spot, but take yourself down to Nordstrom. And guess what? You'll find a few spots. Or go over to Capital Grill and Valet Park. Or you can do that. Or you can do that. Yeah. Um... And then last but not least, who's most likely... Wait a minute. Wrong one. Sorry. Who's most likely to tell a stranger at the mall to control their child? That's really hard. I know. Because we all think it, but who's going to actually say it? Well, yeah, but... So who's most likely to steal a parking spot from someone who is waiting? No, that's not the first one. No, no, no. The first one was who's most likely to have a full-blown meltdown, untangling... You're going out of order? No, no. You were right. Okay. Who's most likely to have a full-blown meltdown, untangling Christmas lights? Should we say it all at once? One, two, three. Chelsea. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's like you're in my house. I can't even... I'm watching it happen in my brain. I mean, she has a meltdown when the printer runs out of paper. Question number two, who's most likely to steal a spot from someone who is waiting? I said Allison, not because she would do it deliberately, because that's not her, because with that one eye of hers, I could see the car waiting for the spot, being in her blind spot, and her... Pulling in and just saying, yeah, I'm going to take the spot. No, no, no. It's not even going to be like that. She's going to be like, nailed it. No, I don't think she would do that. Nerve. No, no, no. Not that she stole someone's spot, but she found a spot, not even realizing that she Didn't hit any cars pulling in. Exactly. Nailed that part. And yes. And for the reasons you said, thank you. Yeah. Because it was going to have to be me, but I would never intentionally do that. But the odds of me not seeing you at any given time are very good. Pretty good. Last one this morning. Who's most likely to tell a stranger at the mall to control their kids? Now, that's not us either. None of that. But however, I do see myself like engaging in what seems like friendly conversation to try to get a point across. Like, oh my God, is he hungry? I mean, I think there's a food court over there because he's, you know, taking everything and throwing it. Oh, I could see that. I would do it that way if I had to, but even that's limited. Oh, okay, I like it. I thought I was going to have to take another one for the team. Oh, no, I was thinking I was going to have to take that one. But the reason I laughed so hard is Sunday, I was getting out of my car to go into a restaurant to pick up breakfast. So I parked right up there by the door where people come out. And as I open up my car door to get out, this was just random, no one did anything wrong, but it was incredibly startling. Like a six-year-old girl was... runs right up to my door as i open it opens it uh open it and screams and i go jc and her parents were right behind her and i was like no one's fault like not hers not mine scared me i literally almost died yeah so in a way i did say get a hold of your screaming child oh yeah you got your point across all right well there's cross exam this morning holiday season is here it's 42 degrees christmas time oh you've been singing this all morning We'll be right back. Oh, I love it. This is the Saw Soul Orchestra. Mmmmm Remember the song? I do. Oh, oh. It was a merry time last night. I feel better. No, me too. I've been singing it all morning. I couldn't get it out of my head, and then I finally found it. I think it's hilarious that you have been singing it. Allison asked what song it was, and you're like, I don't know. I don't know. Because I wanted to save it for the bit. Oh, whatever. What am I going to do? If I reveal everything, then what kind of show is it? You just can be so dismissive sometimes, and you know what's going on. I'm not dismissive. Is this all an act, acting like you don't know what's going on? I think so. Am I still in charge here? I don't know. That's my favorite line. Mm-hmm. You've said that so many times the past couple weeks. I know. Did you actually play the game last night? I was in the game for a little while. Wait, are you drinking out of someone's shoe? How close are you talking about? That's the imagine thing I'm still editing. This is something else. You're legit. Hey, look who I found. Oh, Kev. Look it. There's no greater place to be. What night is it? Tuesday? It is Monday. It's a Monday. God, I love Kev. It happens. It happens. Say hello. Hello. It's my television neighbor. Hi. So does Kevin sit out on the floor? I always thought he was up in some technical booth. No, he's out on the floor. Yeah, so Kevin, who's on Mojo's show, is our friend who does killer at these Pistons games. He's great. It's like the in-host arena, right? Yeah, where Mason is the announcer for the game, Kevin's the guy that's out there when Hooper does stuff, when they do contests, when he hypes people up. He's so good at it. Oh, my God, he's good at it. And you talk about a guy that works hard. I mean, this guy, because how many games do they have? And he's got to stay till the end. And then he's got to go home. He's got his responsibilities. He gets up early. I was on a work call with him the other day. It was me, him and a future client. He hyped like everyone up the entire time. I'm like. Bro, you're not at a Pistons game right now. You don't have to. He is just a hype man 24-7. He is so good at what he does. Here's me later today. I'm going to go back to the iHeart building. I'm going to sit at my desk. You know where to find me. I'm going to just be looking at my phone. And Kevin's going to come out of Mojo's studio. He's going to be like, there she is. He's going to run to me and hug me. Yes. That's what he hypes. Like, even in the, you know, like. I even said to him, I was like, you know, I'm a little, I'm tired. I didn't know a whole lot of sleep. And then, you know, the schedule's crazy. But God's got us. Like, he does got us, doesn't he? Oh, I'm looking forward to seeing him later. Well, it's all good. A couple things here. Your seats were on the floor, though? Yes. Okay. It was with Anthony. Great seat. You know, at one point, my girl called me, and she said, you need to stop eating popcorn. She could see you? I am eating popcorn. I am. The fact that He called out. Oh, my God. You buried the lead. That's the story. Multiple people are like, I'm totally seeing you eat. Wait, how many buckets of popcorn did you eat? I got a little bag of popcorn, but for some reason, everybody keeps telling me, I saw you eating on TV last night. If I knew that we could actually see you in the game, I would have watched. Oh, you will do. We'll see us. Anthony's dad was like, I see you at the game with Jay. That's hilarious. And we were right there. We were sitting next to Washington's bench. So it's like Anthony, me, and that team sitting down, taking the stuff off, putting it back on, taking it off. Those are Anthony's seats? Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. The cameraman couldn't get enough of you. Guess who else I saw there? Who? Jumana. Oh. She was right across from me. Seriously? What? You didn't make your way to her to tell her I'm obsessed with her? I was going to. I wonder where she's been. I don't know, but I've been obsessed with her for decades. She was so popular, you couldn't go anywhere without seeing her billboard. Then I feel like she went away for like four years, and now she's back, and I see her billboards again. Okay, I was going to say, there's a billboard, I see it. Yeah. Cade, Duncan Robinson. Oh, are you guys on first name basis? Come on. Our friend Duncan Robinson, killer last night. Another 22 points. John Collins had a big night, 24 points. Cade, 17. No, Cade. Yeah, Cade. Jenkins. I mean, my God, this guy, 22. I was blown away. I couldn't get enough of this game. Our guy, S.R. Thompson, he was fantastic. Thank And the best part was where I was sitting, I had in front of me the little, it was the snacks, the candy jar for the other team. Did you even watch any of the game or were you just eating the whole time? I wasn't allowed to eat that. That was theirs. you. It just happened to be sitting in front of me. It's like a breakfast buffet. But it's like every player, every coach, I mean, every second they have their hands in this thing. And I tell you what. It was by far a little bit gross with your sweaty basketball hands. The Hi-Chews, the Hi-Chews were and the Jolly Ranchers are still king. That's what the players were having over there every second. What did Kate have? Did you just say he wasn't on my side? Jolly Ranchers are still king. Who are you? Well, I'm just saying that's on the floor. They had to replenish them several times. But like. I've literally never heard you use that phrase before. No one saw you on TV last night eating popcorn, Chelsea. I hope things start picking up for you. I know. Your life sucks. You know what I mean? That'd be rough. It's Monday night. Look at it. That's how close you are. I wish that we would have been at the Pistons game last night as well. Me and you would have been so far up now. No one would have saw us eat anything. Ever. And those seats, we would have had to ask Kevin to sneak us in. They would have actually had to have binoculars to spot us. Yeah. I heard Allison and Chelsea would be at the game. Where? They're mopping up after. We get mop jobs. We'll take some mop jobs. God is good. By the way, one other thing. Our friend Chris at the Pistons, who hooked us up with a special guest for our trailer, he came over to say hello, and he said, He said, hey, you know, my mom's a big fan of yours. I'm like, oh, I'd love to meet her. He goes, oh, are you sure? I'm like, well, yeah, of course. Are you kidding? Why not? He goes, really? I'm like, yeah. I'm like, what am I, some kind of jerk? Why wouldn't I? Go get her. It had nothing to do with that. Oh. She was all the way up at the top, so we had to walk all the way up to the top of the arena. Well, how would you have known that's what he meant? I was so fat and winded. Oh, my God. I got up there. I was all huffing and puffing. Why does he have his mom all the way? At the top, where is she in some fancy suite? No, no, no. She said that's how it was. She was in our seats. Yeah. She was in Allison's seats. He's going to get a mop job, too. It was a great job. And thanks to Anthony, by the way. Yeah, that's so cool. It was great to see him and hanging out with him. I ate like a pig last night. I don't know. We go down that little room, and I'm like, oh, I had wings. I had pizza. I had brisket. I had it all. Was it brisket? No, I had short ribs. Short ribs. Oh, yum. Yeah, fries with some stuff on it. I mean, just fantastic. Then they have candy down there. I was like at the Wonka factory. Wow. I'm at the game. I'm drinking Diet Coke. I'm having gummy bears left and right. And I didn't wear a hat. No, look at you. I didn't wear a hat. Wow. Yeah, I was a whole new Jack. You're like a new person. I'm like a new me. Hey, Pistons, call me an Allison. Oh, by the way, the Pistons won. All right, there you go. 100.3 WNIC. On this day, 251 years ago in 1775, the U.S. Marines were born by an act of Congress during the Revolutionary War. We need Marines is what we need, and that's what they do. Oh, they're older than us as a country. 57 years ago, in 1969, Sesame Street debuted on PBS. I always thought that was even older than that, but nope, that's all, just 57 years old. It was such a part of, well, everyone's childhood, but it was such a part of my childhood, the things I still remember to this day. Like, just little things, not even, like, major things, but, like, Warren asked me to pick up milk the other day, and I just remember, do you remember a quart of milk? Carton of eggs, loaf of bread, or something like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it was just like little stuff like that. And I'll still think about it. And I learned how to say open and close in Spanish. Can you, what are they? Abierto cerrado. Abierto cerrado. I took Spanish for like eight or nine years, and I do not remember that. Sesame Street did it. I miss that big bird costume that I had. Hazon, hazon. Como se llama la chica nueva? Okay. Huh? What did he say to you? Como se llama la chica nueva? Who's your girlfriend? I don't know. Oh, yeah. I don't know Mrs. Clackholz. I know I'm in pre-Spanish for the second year in a row. You mangled like three sentences together. Who's your girl for chicken sundae? I got Rondell Taylor sitting behind me calling me baby boy. Asking me if there's any way I can get tickets to some show in Philadelphia. And mind you, I'm in middle school. Mrs. Clagghold's yelling at me, Hasson, which I don't know what I'm saying. So, yeah, two years of pre-spam. Hasson. Oh, Jason. Yes. Did you say the guy sitting behind you was named Rondell? Rondell Taylor. Wow, I've never heard that name before. Yeah, he was the first to ever call me baby boy. I was baby boy in middle school. Wow, you're so cool. Yeah, 25 years ago in 2001, the first iPod went on sale. I think I had mine in 2004. Do you still have it? I think so, yeah. I never had one. This comes up sometimes. I had an eye touch. Yep. You still got that account, though, with that locked email that you can't get into. I don't know where to, I can't get into it, but. Nine years ago, in 2017, Taylor Swift released her sixth album, Reputation, featuring Delicate, ready for it. And look what you made me do. That was a great album. All right, WNIC Dearborn, Detroit. It's time for Hollywood Minute. It is brought to you this time around by Moran Chevrolet. National Geographic doing a special about the real Frozen. And Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Jonathan Goff, and Josh Gad are all going to return for it. Which is kind of cool. Oh, all right. It doesn't sound like Daniel Radcliffe is going to be watching HBO's Harry Potter series. He said, I've been in a lot of Harry Potter already. And also, I don't watch any TV. I do not understand these actors who do not watch. You are Harry Potter. I would just take on that persona for the rest of my life and keep getting paid. Go ahead. But I don't understand. That would be like us saying we never listen to the radio and we never listen to podcasts. This is what you do for a living. How do you not watch TV? It's also annoying across the board when anyone says it. Oh, yeah. I will seriously watch TV. That's where you learn all your stuff, like Spanish. Right. And that other thing I learned. Mm-hmm. Henry Winkler said that Dolly Parton's trash became a souvenir on the set of A Smoky Mountain Christmas. So she was working on music and an actor took home a crumpled piece of paper that she threw in the trash. Oh, my God. Yeah. How does Henry Winkler know that? Well, he must have been on the set with her or some part of the film. Mm-hmm. Russell Brand sentenced to 10 years and six months in a UK prison yesterday. Wow. Yeah, he was found guilty last week of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault involving four victims between 2004 and 2009. 2009. A judge said that the attacks were fueled by his staggering arrogance and that while he was becoming famous and charismatic 20 years ago, he also became a predator. Now, he must serve at least two-thirds of his sentence before being eligible for release. Police also- He is staggeringly arrogant. I mean, I've picked up on that. What's two-thirds? Like six years? Like almost six and a half years, right? Yeah, it's going to be a while. I'm also hearing that Katy Perry's people might be shopping around like Hulu and Netflix to do some sort of like a documentary on her life married to him. I don't know. Wouldn't she want to just distance herself from it? Why would you want to rehash it? Because there's not really anything going on with her. No one's talking about her. Madonna fans might have to be patient for the long-awaited biopic. So Julia Garner, who has been attached to the film for a couple years, sat down with CBS Sunday morning and said that the status of the film is, like, unknown. She said, you know, it kind of changes. In a way, every hour. It's not up to me if the project moves forward, but at the very least, I made a friend out of it, Madonna. I feel like we have been talking about this bio for as long as you got here. I mean, we've been talking about it so long. It's really important that it's done right, so I don't have a problem with them taking forever. I don't even know why everyone gets a biopic when you're still alive. You really should be gone before we see the movie of your life, but whatever. But also, let's stop talking about it until it's ready to go. Right. Be quiet. Yep. I'm going to start a diet on Monday. That's what that is. Oh, my diet starts on Monday. It never does. No, of course not. It never does. David Schwimmer paid tribute to the Friends episode, The One with the Red Sweater, in a new ad for the clothing company brand Quincy. He's on a parched... Park Bench, when he sees a guy go by wearing a red sweater, he chases, later sees a dog wearing one. It's, I don't know. What's that? What episode is that? I'm drawing a blank. He's wearing a red sweater, or he has a red sweater. It keeps coming up throughout the episode? I feel like it's like at his ex-girlfriend's house, and I don't know, something. It's usually when a campaign is built around a famous episode, like if he was doing Gardner White, Couches. Or maybe that's how him and Rachel were caught being back together. I'm not really sure. TV Today, we have Dancing with the Stars and NCIS. Yeah, figure it out later. Yeah. Yay, Allison. Sometimes I like to get to the bottom of it here on the air. Why don't we just make the show an escape room, and then everybody can just talk about how to get out. Let's just do that for an hour. Power. I love that Jay Tower's in the morning. It's like listening to Escape Room. They just work their problems out. I don't really know if I've learned anything. By the way, that's when they figure out that Ross might be Rachel's baby daddy. Oh! Yes. Well, that changes everything. Incredible. Time for That's Incredible, incredible stories from around the world and beyond. Two people in Maryland are facing charges after allegedly luring an 81-year-old man to a home, tying him to a chair, and then pouring syrup on him to get the combination to his safe. They tortured him with hot syrup. Hot syrup. Hot syrup. It's just so vile. They also stole eighty dollars from him along with some jewelry and the keys to several vehicles, including a brand new Corvette. I'm assuming... He's going to be okay. I'm assuming because we know this story, we found those perps. Oh, yeah. They've been... Yes. We hot syruped them real good. Yeah, eye for an eye. Uh-huh. Only hotters here. Uh, A report looked at U.S. census data and compared the ratio of men to women in each state. It shows that cold states have more men and more humid states are stacked with women. That's incredible. I heard a statistic in Alaska, the ratio of men to women is like 24 to 3. So you're a hot commodity if you're a woman? Yeah. It doesn't even, whatever kind of, I mean, you're good. You're good. You're going to find somebody. Yeah. Man, I think I need to go to Alaska. Maybe you should be on the next episode of Port Protection. I think Curly's looking for a girl. You can get like 80 proposals. Uh-huh. Some people are taking vacation days just to play video games and mental health experts have a pretty good argument on why that's not a bad idea. It can help reduce burnout. I think that's a non-story because they're your vacation days. They're yours. You can use them to do whatever you want. It is funny, though, that we can be judgy about how people use their vacation days. Like my brother, his job, he had a family birthday party to go to over the weekend. He works on weekends. And my instant reaction was like. Do you really need to go to this birthday party yet at the same time they're his vacation days? What do you care? He doesn't need to explain himself. What a bossy sister. I know. I can't imagine. So annoying. And I'm John. Haven't we learned anything from how your sister treats you? By the way, my sister just texted me and said, let's set the record straight. Our house is 68 degrees, not roasting. That's incredible. Oh. A good Samaritan. Oh, let me not do that one. In a viral stunt, hundreds of people tried and failed to move the massive bean sculpture in Chicago. It weighs 110 tons. So you can all lean and push that thing. It's not moving. That's incredible. What is wrong with anyone that thought they could? 110 tons? Yeah, not going to happen. Atlanta residents spent most of 2025 on OnlyFans with nearly $26.2 million spent. Orlando next, followed by Miami. Those are your big cities using the OnlyFans. That's incredible. I saw Lamar Odom, you know, Khloe Kardashian's ex-husband, is on OnlyFans. He made like 50 grand in a day. Wow. You really? People are spending that. A lot of interest. A private jet carrying three passengers and two pilots landed safely at Charleston International Airport Friday after striking and killing an alligator on the runway as it took off. That's incredible. Oh man. Who would have thought? Outs. This one for Allison Martinick. Flying is not getting more dangerous, despite the headlines you may see. Commercial airliners have become safer over the last 25 years. But that said, private jets, small aircraft, and helicopters are a little riskier. That's incredible. Well, I currently need to vet all of my facts in like 12 sources now because of AI. So I'll double check that later. Oh, really? It is frustrating. And I never know what's a real story. And you can't. And you can't. It's crazy. How do you think I feel? What do you think it's feeding me every day? I'm going, wait a minute. Christopher Reeve never shot that scene in Superman. But it sure looks like him every day. Well, luckily you're a Superman historian. Well, you got that right. Many air traffic control facilities in America. This will scare you. Still rely on floppy disks and decades-old computers to manage critical flight information. The FAA says we're finally replacing the technology by 2028. My computer can't even handle a floppy disk. I was so excited when I was a little kid in elementary school. The big thing was like, and at the end of the week, on the last day. Of our computer training course, we're going to be taking apart a floppy disk so you can see what the inside looks like. And I was like, I can't wait. Oh my nerd. Taking a floppy disk apart. I know, I know, I know. All right, there you go.
