1
01:00:01,250 --> 01:00:02,000
Good morning.

2
01:00:03,958 --> 01:00:06,041
And welcome to morning cereal

3
01:00:11,833 --> 01:00:13,666
Okay, good morning and welcome to Monday.

4
01:00:14,333 --> 01:00:15,541
Well, we had the time

5
01:00:15,541 --> 01:00:17,000
spring forward this weekend,

6
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:18,833
and on the positive side of that

7
01:00:18,833 --> 01:00:19,791
is that it's gonna stay

8
01:00:19,791 --> 01:00:21,166
brighter at night now, longer.

9
01:00:21,541 --> 01:00:23,125
But of course, we all missed out

10
01:00:23,125 --> 01:00:24,875
on an hour of the weekend as well,

11
01:00:24,875 --> 01:00:27,000
and potentially an hour of sleep too.

12
01:00:27,750 --> 01:00:29,625
But luckily for us, the universe is

13
01:00:29,625 --> 01:00:30,541
trying to compensate

14
01:00:30,625 --> 01:00:33,375
because today is National Napping Day.

15
01:00:33,833 --> 01:00:35,250
So we can just use this

16
01:00:35,250 --> 01:00:36,875
Monday to make up for any sleep

17
01:00:36,875 --> 01:00:38,333
that we may have lost over the weekend.

18
01:00:39,208 --> 01:00:41,208
It's also National Skirt Day,

19
01:00:41,333 --> 01:00:43,625
so the way I'm going to interpret that

20
01:00:43,625 --> 01:00:44,708
is that's the universe

21
01:00:44,708 --> 01:00:46,291
again, trying to be optimistic

22
01:00:46,833 --> 01:00:48,000
that we are legitimately

23
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:49,833
moving forward to spring.

24
01:00:50,500 --> 01:00:51,458
And trust me, those of

25
01:00:51,458 --> 01:00:52,291
us that have been sitting

26
01:00:52,291 --> 01:00:54,541
on the soccer sidelines all winter long,

27
01:00:54,541 --> 01:00:55,916
we are definitely ready

28
01:00:55,916 --> 01:00:57,583
for spring to be ushered in.

29
01:00:57,833 --> 01:01:00,083
Today's quote, one fun, nostalgic quote

30
01:01:00,083 --> 01:01:01,083
to jumpstart your day

31
01:01:01,083 --> 01:01:02,416
in a positive direction.

32
01:01:03,041 --> 01:01:04,250
And here it is, it's from

33
01:01:04,250 --> 01:01:05,875
Debbie Gibson who said, quote,

34
01:01:06,375 --> 01:01:07,333
"I've learned to have a

35
01:01:07,333 --> 01:01:08,708
sense of humor about myself.

36
01:01:09,250 --> 01:01:10,208
Lord knows everyone

37
01:01:10,208 --> 01:01:11,500
else does," end quote.

38
01:01:12,041 --> 01:01:13,541
And for the record, Debbie,

39
01:01:13,708 --> 01:01:15,041
I've never laughed at you,

40
01:01:15,041 --> 01:01:16,541
but I agree, it's super nice

41
01:01:16,541 --> 01:01:18,416
to break free of that weight

42
01:01:18,416 --> 01:01:19,708
of just caring about what

43
01:01:19,708 --> 01:01:20,875
everybody else thinks about you.

44
01:01:21,166 --> 01:01:22,041
Thanks for that, Debbie.

45
01:01:22,625 --> 01:01:24,208
Well, today's news facts and birthdays

46
01:01:24,208 --> 01:01:25,125
are from March 10th,

47
01:01:25,125 --> 01:01:25,625
and we're gonna start

48
01:01:25,625 --> 01:01:28,916
back in 1913 in Toledo, Ohio.

49
01:01:29,083 --> 01:01:30,125
That's when William Knox

50
01:01:30,125 --> 01:01:31,708
became the first bowler

51
01:01:32,125 --> 01:01:34,708
to bowl a perfect score of 300.

52
01:01:36,041 --> 01:01:39,125
Then in 1969, that's when James Earl Ray,

53
01:01:39,166 --> 01:01:40,541
he pled guilty to murdering

54
01:01:40,541 --> 01:01:41,791
American civil rights leader

55
01:01:41,875 --> 01:01:43,000
Martin Luther King Jr.

56
01:01:43,500 --> 01:01:45,583
He was sentenced to 99 years in prison.

57
01:01:46,500 --> 01:01:48,916
Then on a more positive note, in 1997,

58
01:01:49,291 --> 01:01:51,250
that's when Buffy the Vampire Slayer,

59
01:01:51,791 --> 01:01:53,125
the TV show starring

60
01:01:53,125 --> 01:01:54,125
Sarah Michelle Geller,

61
01:01:54,541 --> 01:01:56,583
it premiered on this date on the WB.

62
01:01:57,416 --> 01:01:58,375
All right, well, happy birthday.

63
01:01:58,375 --> 01:01:59,375
If today is your birthday,

64
01:01:59,375 --> 01:02:00,250
you share a birthday

65
01:02:00,250 --> 01:02:01,166
with a lot of people.

66
01:02:01,750 --> 01:02:03,541
Apparently this was the day to be born.

67
01:02:04,291 --> 01:02:06,250
Singer Bad Bunny, no idea

68
01:02:06,250 --> 01:02:08,166
who he is, but he's 31 today.

69
01:02:09,125 --> 01:02:10,833
Actress Olivia Wilde, I know her.

70
01:02:10,833 --> 01:02:11,916
She's 41 today.

71
01:02:12,416 --> 01:02:14,250
Singer Carrie Underwood, I know her.

72
01:02:14,250 --> 01:02:15,458
She's 42 today.

73
01:02:16,208 --> 01:02:17,708
Actor John Hamm, he's 54.

74
01:02:18,916 --> 01:02:21,750
Actress Sharon Stone, she's 67 today.

75
01:02:22,208 --> 01:02:23,875
And finally, Chuck Norris.

76
01:02:24,166 --> 01:02:25,250
He is karate chopping

77
01:02:25,250 --> 01:02:27,375
his way into his 85th year.

78
01:02:28,541 --> 01:02:29,166
And the number one

79
01:02:29,166 --> 01:02:31,541
movie on this day in 1997

80
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:32,833
was Private Parts.

81
01:02:33,333 --> 01:02:34,583
Now I've never seen this movie,

82
01:02:34,583 --> 01:02:36,958
partly because it starred Howard Stern.

83
01:02:37,208 --> 01:02:39,041
And Howard Stern back in the 90s

84
01:02:39,250 --> 01:02:40,958
was way too far out there for me.

85
01:02:41,583 --> 01:02:43,083
But I will say now that

86
01:02:43,083 --> 01:02:45,125
Howard Stern in his older years,

87
01:02:45,375 --> 01:02:46,541
I've been listening to him

88
01:02:46,541 --> 01:02:47,625
and some of his celebrity

89
01:02:47,625 --> 01:02:49,083
interviews, and I got to say,

90
01:02:49,291 --> 01:02:50,916
first off, he's very insightful.

91
01:02:50,916 --> 01:02:52,166
He's a very intelligent guy.

92
01:02:52,666 --> 01:02:54,000
And some of those interviews

93
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:55,291
are just really incredible.

94
01:02:55,666 --> 01:02:57,208
So Howard's kind of grown on me,

95
01:02:57,208 --> 01:02:58,791
but I think I'll still skip on his movie.

96
01:02:59,375 --> 01:02:59,916
And the number one

97
01:02:59,916 --> 01:03:01,625
song on this day in 1989

98
01:03:02,250 --> 01:03:04,666
was Lost in Your Eyes by Debbie Gibson.

99
01:03:05,541 --> 01:03:07,708
If you grew up near the 80s, take a

100
01:03:07,708 --> 01:03:08,541
listen to this song,

101
01:03:08,541 --> 01:03:09,875
if you haven't heard it in a while,

102
01:03:09,875 --> 01:03:10,833
and it will take you

103
01:03:10,833 --> 01:03:12,583
straight back to 1989.

104
01:03:13,541 --> 01:03:14,541
This song was Debbie

105
01:03:14,541 --> 01:03:15,541
Gibson's biggest hit,

106
01:03:15,875 --> 01:03:17,791
and it spent three weeks at number one.

107
01:03:18,458 --> 01:03:19,541
After you listen to this,

108
01:03:19,541 --> 01:03:20,250
tell me you don't

109
01:03:20,250 --> 01:03:21,250
feel like doing some laps

110
01:03:21,416 --> 01:03:22,250
around the roller rink.

111
01:03:23,083 --> 01:03:24,166
Okay, well, I'm gonna send

112
01:03:24,166 --> 01:03:25,500
you on your way this Monday

113
01:03:25,500 --> 01:03:27,375
with my takeaways from chapter 11

114
01:03:27,875 --> 01:03:29,000
of Dale Carnegie's How to Win

115
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:30,291
Friends and Influence People.

116
01:03:31,083 --> 01:03:32,666
And Carnegie says this, quote,

117
01:03:33,041 --> 01:03:34,125
"That is what every

118
01:03:34,125 --> 01:03:35,625
successful person loves.

119
01:03:36,041 --> 01:03:37,583
"The game, the chance

120
01:03:37,583 --> 01:03:38,708
for self-expression,

121
01:03:39,291 --> 01:03:40,791
"the chance to prove his or

122
01:03:40,791 --> 01:03:42,625
her worth to excel, to win.

123
01:03:43,291 --> 01:03:44,208
"That is what makes

124
01:03:44,208 --> 01:03:46,333
foot races and hog calling

125
01:03:46,666 --> 01:03:47,458
"and pie eating

126
01:03:47,458 --> 01:03:50,208
contests, the desire to excel,

127
01:03:50,625 --> 01:03:53,250
"the desire for feeling of importance."

128
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:54,333
End quote.

129
01:03:55,041 --> 01:03:57,125
And in Carnegie's chapter entitled,

130
01:03:57,541 --> 01:03:59,291
"When Nothing Else Works, Try This,"

131
01:04:00,041 --> 01:04:01,916
Carnegie's principle number 12 is,

132
01:04:02,500 --> 01:04:03,625
throw down a challenge.

133
01:04:04,375 --> 01:04:05,375
This chapter really

134
01:04:05,375 --> 01:04:06,458
struck a chord with me.

135
01:04:06,458 --> 01:04:07,625
Call it a challenge or

136
01:04:07,625 --> 01:04:08,708
a chip on my shoulder,

137
01:04:09,125 --> 01:04:09,875
but I've always

138
01:04:09,875 --> 01:04:11,583
responded in a positive way,

139
01:04:11,916 --> 01:04:13,750
or at least attempted to respond,

140
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:15,083
to step up to any

141
01:04:15,083 --> 01:04:16,250
challenge that came my way.

142
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:17,875
I wonder if you're the same way.

143
01:04:18,166 --> 01:04:18,958
Well, here it comes.

144
01:04:19,166 --> 01:04:20,041
I challenge you to

145
01:04:20,041 --> 01:04:21,875
absolutely conquer this Monday.

146
01:04:22,333 --> 01:04:23,541
But remember, you can't

147
01:04:23,541 --> 01:04:25,041
climb a mountain in one leap.

148
01:04:25,833 --> 01:04:26,833
Thanks for joining us today.

149
01:04:27,083 --> 01:04:27,708
Come back tomorrow,

150
01:04:28,083 --> 01:04:29,791
