02:21All right.
02:21Yep, yep.
02:22But it's the mixtape in the Loot Sports Radio 610 presented by Share of Injury Lawyers.
02:27So, Taylor Swift got the Swifties out here going crazy, and it kind of got me worried
02:33about our co-worker and our Swiftie correspondent, Jesse Watts.
02:38So, here is Inside Edition with a story of a radio host, which is very ironic.
02:49Amanda in Raven Show, who decided to protest Taylor Swift by doing something crazy.
02:56This woman is wearing her wedding dress to work, and she says for good reason.
03:02She wants Taylor Swift to finally release a photo of her wedding gown.
03:07Do you think we're going to get a photo of it?
03:09I mean, yes, but when?
03:10I thought for sure it was going to be earlier this week, and we still haven't seen it.
03:14So, when is she going to drop the photo?
03:15We're ready for it.
03:16J-Lo was there.
03:17Anna Zapp, host of the radio show, Anna and Raven in Milford, Connecticut, made a video
03:22asking other women to join her in the playful protest.
03:25In honor of Taylor Swift getting married, and we still haven't seen her dress, post a picture
03:30of your wedding dress.
03:32It could be what you wore on your wedding day, if you just want to put it on today and
03:34chill
03:35on it until we get that photo.
03:36Let's do it.
03:37Let's see your dress.
03:38Swifties across the USA are answering the call, following Anna's example and posting
03:43photos of themselves in their wedding dresses.
03:45Are you going to wear your dress until she does?
03:48Well, yes, absolutely.
03:49So, Taylor, could you please put us out of our misery and just post one photo?
03:53Just post one photo.
03:54Why do you want to see her wedding dress?
03:55Because we all have a fantasy.
03:57You know, a fantasy of what that day is going to be and what that day is going to feel
04:00like,
04:01and she finally got her fantasy, and it's fun for us to relive it, too.
04:04In true Taylor Swift fashion, just like she did her engagement announcement, it is extremely
04:09likely, if not guaranteed, that she is going to drop this on Instagram, and we are all
04:14on the edges of our seats until she does.
04:17This is another level, guys.
04:19Wait.
04:20This is another level.
04:21I try not to be too judgmental about this type of stuff.
04:25Now, go ahead.
04:25Go ahead.
04:25Go ahead and cook.
04:26And, of course, in me saying that, I heard it too.
04:31Um, but she sounds legitimately pressed, and the reason she gave made zero sense in the
04:37world, right?
04:38The idea that, you know, well, you know, we all have fantasies, and I was like, about
04:42somebody else, but, you know, we just want to, you know, live through our fantasies through
04:46her.
04:46And I'm like, by wearing the wedding dresses that you already have, sounds like you already
04:49had your fantasy to some degree.
04:51And you pressing me about releasing my pictures of my wedding, of my wedding?
04:56Just say that you are obsessed with her.
04:59Right.
04:59Like, just say that explicitly.
05:01Right.
05:01And that you might be a little bit strange.
05:04Well, here's the thing.
05:05I actually won't go so far.
05:06Well, yes, they are a little bit strange.
05:08At least a little strange.
05:09I won't go too far in it, because I think sometimes people really do enjoy doing the,
05:13oh, man, look at these crazy people.
05:15And we all have our things that we are somewhat engaged in.
05:18The only problem is, I have been scratching my head, trying to think, what is the thing
05:23that would get me to be this kind of press?
05:26Like, there's got to be something in life that most of us have some level of, is like,
05:30our, our white whale is all that's coming to mind.
05:32I don't know why Moby Dick is here, but, like, it's our thing.
05:35Our obsession, our thing that we're fascinated by.
05:38And I'm trying to think, what is that for me?
05:40And would I ever be so pressed to act like this woman is right now at her job?
05:43But what are you demanding somebody to release?
05:45Like, I'm thinking about in history, like recent history, and not to get political,
05:50but we had the birther conspiracy way back in the day.
05:53I saw.
05:54They made my man release his birth certificate.
05:57We got the Joe Mixon.
05:59Hey, somebody tell us what happened to Joe Mixon, right?
06:02Like, there's always the Epstein files of today.
06:05All of this stuff.
06:06Like, people have their things that they are obsessed with.
06:10Hey, I need this thing to be released.
06:12For some people, it's the wedding dress.
06:15And specifically for women, like, this is one of the ones where we just cannot identify.
06:19We were talking earlier about shows that your girls make you watch.
06:23My wife, back in the day, would watch that Say Yes to the Dress,
06:27and, boy, I would try to watch that with her,
06:29but that didn't have none of the compelling nature that Love Island got.
06:32I'm just like, bro, I don't care nothing about these Vera Wangs
06:36or whatever the hell it is that they're talking about.
06:37Look at you bringing Vera Wang out the back pocket.
06:39I see you, dog.
06:40That's a popular one.
06:41It is, it is, but still.
06:42Yeah, so I decided to ask Jessie.
06:44Oh, we got Jessie appearing on the...
06:46Okay, very good.
06:47Yeah, yeah, so I asked her,
06:48have she even seen any pictures?
06:52I know the answer to this because I've talked to her about this.
06:54Yep, so this is what she had to say.
06:56No, I'm glued to my phone waiting for someone.
06:58I know I shouldn't want someone to leak it,
07:00but I do want someone to leak it,
07:01and no one has leaked anything yet.
07:03How would you feel about wearing your wedding dress to work?
07:06Would you do this?
07:08I thought about it.
07:08I wanted to.
07:10One of our listeners DM'd me and was like,
07:11you should wear your wedding dress to work to support Taylor,
07:13and I thought, yes, but it's in Michigan,
07:15and I will ask my parents to FedEx it to me.
07:18I would do it in a heartbeat.
07:18Are you kidding?
07:19That was a lot of money for that dress.
07:20To wear it again?
07:21Yes!
07:22She's a sensible person.
07:23I do love that at least she came to it from a sensible place.
07:26That back-end logic that she threw in there at the end,
07:28I can get with that.
07:30Hey, I paid a lot of money.
07:32Somebody paid a lot of money for this dress.
07:34So any reason I had to break this bad boy back out?
07:36I mean, to wear it more than, I don't know, once.
07:39Yeah.
07:40This is how I'm starting to feel about the tux that I got.
07:42Now that I now am a proud owner of a tuxedo,
07:44I'm looking for reasons to wear this tux.
07:47Can somebody throw a nice of a...
07:51I might could.
07:52One of these days, I might could come up here.
07:54That's a salute to Travis Kelce or something, man.
07:58On the text line from the 346,
08:00they said they're like that about Aerosmith.
08:01They have clothing that Steven Tyler wore.
08:03Is there anything that you could imagine?
08:05Like, what is it that you, that, B. Scott, you go,
08:08this is the thing that I am the most ravenous or fan,
08:12I don't know what the ravenous about,
08:14I guess I can't find the right word.
08:15Yeah, no, I understand what you mean.
08:16I think, so, I don't have one of these,
08:20but I will say, like,
08:22the first time I went to Landry's house years ago,
08:25he had a Kobe Bryant sweatband.
08:27Oh, that's crazy.
08:28And I was like...
08:29Well, unless he, like, gave it to him.
08:32I think he might have.
08:33Okay, cool.
08:33No, he did, yeah.
08:34Okay, good.
08:34Well, then, for some reason,
08:35my brain immediately went to,
08:37I bought that as a memorabilia item.
08:39No, he actually got it from...
08:39Oh, yeah, no, that's hot.
08:40And honestly, I cannot remember
08:42if that was before or after Kobe
08:45had already died at that point.
08:46I think it was before.
08:47Yeah.
08:48Well, I'm talking about when I saw it.
08:50When I saw it, you know, obviously,
08:51he didn't pull it off the...
08:54Oh, no, no, whoa, okay.
08:56I wasn't even going that far.
08:58I felt like it was before, though,
09:00like, before COVID.
09:01Yeah, I think it was.
09:03Before COVID.
09:03Because after COVID,
09:04we wouldn't really have been
09:05in each other's houses like that
09:06until way, way later.
09:08Yeah.
09:08This was definitely, like,
09:09early on in knowing Landry.
09:10I thought it was before COVID.
09:12Yeah, yeah.
09:13So, I would say, like,
09:14I wouldn't obsess over that,
09:15and I'm not saying that even Landry did,
09:17but that was kind of cool.
09:18Yeah, yeah.
09:18On the text line,
09:20somebody said,
09:20any Astros injury
09:21in the last five years
09:22I would like to know about.
09:23And you know what?
09:24Great answer.
09:25Good answer.
09:26Yeah.
09:26Good answer.
09:27Because I would be...
09:28I'd be at Dana...
09:30Let us know!
09:31Is his foot broken or not?
09:34Yeah, we was doing that
09:35with the Texans for sure
09:36with Joe Mixon
09:37and what's his name?
09:38Chris?
09:39Oh, Christian Harris?
09:41Yeah.
09:41Yep.
09:42Any update, Coach?
09:44Yeah.
09:44I'll give you the update
09:45whenever I get it.
09:46I'm trying to think.
09:47Is there anything that I am so...
09:49Well, hold on.
09:50Why is the 713 asking
09:51what was really wrong
09:52with Kyle Tucker
09:53when we saw that man
09:54shatter a baseball off his shin?
09:56On live television?
09:58Yeah.
09:58We did see that, right?
10:00Yeah.
10:00That was televised for the people.
10:02Yeah.
10:02Hey, who was the center
10:04for the Texans
10:06when Lovie Smith said,
10:08hey, I'll give y'all
10:08the details on...
10:09Remember, he never came back.
10:11Justin Britt.
10:11Justin Britt, yeah.
10:12I'll never forget.
10:13I want to know more
10:13about that story.
10:15Yeah.
10:15Look, I told y'all
10:16what I did with that, right?
10:18Nah.
10:18So I ran into Justin Britt
10:20by accident at a corner store
10:22and I was just curious,
10:23like, what is he up to?
10:24So I ain't, like, stalk him,
10:27but I did kind of follow his vehicle
10:30to see where he was headed.
10:31Went to a little apartment
10:33off of Fondra.
10:35Wait, so you didn't stalk him,
10:36but you stalked him?
10:37It's what I heard.
10:37Yeah, yeah.
10:38Okay, I just wanted to make sure
10:38that I heard that right.
10:39I didn't, like, park and stay there
10:41and see, like, how his movements were.
10:43I was like, man, where is he going?
10:45Because it was also
10:45one of those gas stations
10:46where I was like,
10:47I ain't in your pockets,
10:50but you making a little too much money
10:52to be hanging where I'm hanging.
10:53So where are you headed?
10:55And then he ended up driving
10:56to an area that wasn't even as nice
10:59as where we were.
11:00Uh-oh.
11:00So I was just like, you know,
11:02I don't know.
11:03Yeah.
11:04And who knows what kind of company
11:06he was keeping.
11:07It could have been a girl.
11:07I mean, I have no idea.
11:08That was where my brain went.
11:10No, I thought a lot more about me
11:11than anything,
11:12but that is where my brain went.
11:13But I was like, man,
11:14we can't get no details
11:15on Justin Britton.
11:16Here he is just right off of Fondra
11:17at this nondescript apartment.
11:18It's funny you said that.
11:20Somebody got...
11:20I might know the apartment
11:21you're talking about.
11:21Yeah, it's funny
11:23because a listener ran into me
11:25right around the corner
11:26from my house.
11:26I was at a gas station
11:27and he was like,
11:28Figgy, Figgy.
11:29Like, what you doing over here?
11:31I'm like, buddy,
11:32I live over here.
11:34I'm the people.
11:34I thought you'd be over
11:35on the nicer side
11:36on the other side.
11:38First and foremost,
11:38bleep you.
11:39Yeah.
11:40I'm like, hey,
11:41I'm in the hood.
11:42I'm in the hood.
11:43Whoever owned the place
11:44is like, what you saying?
11:45Right.
11:45Yeah, I'm like,
11:46I'm in the hood, man.
11:48It is funny
11:49when people drastically
11:51overestimate our status
11:52and who we are.
11:53Oh, boy.
11:53Yeah, man.
11:54Yeah.
11:55The microphones are cool
11:56and everything
11:57and the job itself is cool.
11:58It's fun.
11:59We got his perks.
12:00As I like saying,
12:01we are not digging ditches
12:02over here.
12:02We really aren't.
12:03It's a blast,
12:04but I guarantee you
12:05every last one of y'all
12:06make more than me.
12:09I guarantee that.
12:10How did we end up here?
12:11Oh, we was talking
12:12about Taylor Swift somehow.
12:13Yeah.
12:13Somebody said,
12:14y'all need to quit hating
12:14and then simultaneously
12:15somebody said,
12:16another level of stupidity.
12:18So, hey, there you go.
12:19Hey.
12:19Okay.
12:20Yeah, I was out of,
12:21we have run the gamut
12:22apparently somehow,
12:23some way.
12:23The 832,
12:24I'll just let us read that
12:25together by ourselves.
12:27Oh, yes.
12:27No, I saw that one.
12:28That was really funny.
12:28Yep, yep, yep, yep.
12:29No, I mean,
12:30we say it on here.
12:31They said they just
12:31wanted to let you know
12:32that they didn't want
12:33to say it out loud.
12:34However, WPS, you know,
12:36and probably, probably.
12:39Yeah.
