Speaker A

Let's go to the lightning round.

Speaker A

Jen, first question.

Speaker A

St. Patrick's Day is less than one week away.

Speaker A

What is your favorite St. Patrick's Day memory?

Speaker B

I know you don't love it when I talk about my alma mater, Michigan State.

Speaker A

Yeah, go ahead.

Speaker B

And I don't try to bring this up in every.

Speaker B

Every episode we do, but it just.

Speaker B

It just magically happens.

Speaker B

There's something about St. Patrick's Day and East Lansing that go really well together.

Speaker B

So I would say my favorite memory would have to be.

Speaker B

I cannot tell you which year, but it happens to get warm on St. Patrick's Day for the first time, everybody's out and about on campus.

Speaker B

A lot of green beer, a lot of sort of sunny day drinking, asleep.

Speaker B

By 5pm in East Lansing.

Speaker B

That definitely tops the charts for me.

Speaker B

So your lightning round question.

Speaker B

Chris, I can't wait to hear your answer on this.

Speaker B

A penguin wandering away from its colony toward the mountains has gone viral online, and I did look up that meme, and the Internet is calling it the Nihilist Penguin.

Speaker B

Chris, what in reit, in this retail world, makes you feel like that nihilist penguin?

Speaker A

Like a nihilist penguin.

Speaker A

What makes me feel like a penguin?

Speaker A

Jen?

Speaker A

That's your question?

Speaker A

That's what you're asking me?

Speaker A

What makes me feel like a penguin?

Speaker A

Oh, my God.

Speaker A

Off the top of my head, the only thing I can think of is my walk or my general gait.

Speaker A

As I get older, I feel like I'm walking more like a penguin with each passing year, Jen, I feel like that's.

Speaker A

That's what's going on for me.

Speaker A

I'm kind of waddling as I get older, which is not.

Speaker B

Not if you download the Move app from Dick Sporting Goods.

Speaker A

Right?

Speaker A

Yes.

Speaker A

Yes, yes, of course.

Speaker A

That'll hurt my knee.

Speaker A

And then I'll just be waddling with.

Speaker A

You know, without any.

Speaker A

Anything I could do about it, too.

Speaker A

But.

Speaker A

But.

Speaker A

All right, Jen, since you brought up Michigan State, I was going to try to preempt you, but you preempted me.

Speaker A

So March Madness is coming on very fast here.

Speaker A

What chances are you giving old Tom Izzo and your Spartans this year?

Speaker B

It's always hard to count Izzo out in March.

Speaker A

Yeah, it is, for sure.

Speaker B

But I did watch that loss to Michigan.

Speaker B

Was it this weekend?

Speaker B

This past week, actually.

Speaker B

Yeah.

Speaker B

That was really, really tough.

Speaker B

I thought we had them this time.

Speaker B

Close enough, but not a win.

Speaker B

So I'll give them a solid chance.

Speaker B

I'm not going to give it a percentage here.

Speaker B

I'll put Them in the middle of my bracket as the winner every single time.

Speaker B

But my husband's a Nebraska fan.

Speaker B

They are looking pretty, pretty great this year.

Speaker B

It's been a fun story.

Speaker B

We're also watching Illinois.

Speaker B

I'm from Illinois.

Speaker B

So it'll be a big ten year for basketball, I hope, and I'm going to give is a shot.

Speaker A

So probability, probability, probably they make the Final Four.

Speaker A

What are you giving it?

Speaker A

What are you giving it?

Speaker A

20%, 50%.

Speaker A

Oh, come on, Jen.

Speaker B

Did you say 20?

Speaker A

Yeah, 20.

Speaker A

Of course I did.

Speaker A

Yeah.

Speaker A

They just lost to Michigan.

Speaker B

Well, whatever.

Speaker B

March is different.

Speaker B

We can't lose three times to Michigan.

Speaker B

Okay, 85.

Speaker A

85%.

Speaker A

All right, you heard it here, folks.

Speaker A

You hear to hear 85%.

Speaker A

Michigan State is in the Final Four.

Speaker A

All right.

Speaker B

I'm loyal from.

Speaker B

All right.

Speaker B

Love it.

Speaker B

So, Chris, Friday.

Speaker B

This Friday is Friday the 13th.

Speaker B

Are you superstitious at all or is there one thing you just sort of won't mess with just in case?

Speaker A

Oh, that's interesting.

Speaker A

How superstitious am I?

Speaker A

You know, believe it or not, I am not superstitious about Friday the 13th.

Speaker A

I've never even seen a Friday the 13th movie.

Speaker A

Not a single one, if you can believe that, which is surprising given my love of movies.

Speaker A

But I don't like horror movies at all.

Speaker A

But I will say this.

Speaker A

I always knock on wood.

Speaker A

You know, if somebody says something, I'm always knocking on wood.

Speaker A

You do the same thing.

Speaker B

Yeah, I do.

Speaker B

I do, yes.

Speaker A

I'm always knocking on wood.

Speaker A

I don't know why, but.

Speaker A

So I must be superstitious to some degree, you know, for that reason.

Speaker A

So produce.

Speaker A

Ella, how superstitious are you?

Speaker C

Yeah, I'm pretty superstitious, I'd say.

Speaker C

Back in my sports days, I was athlete.

Speaker C

Yes.

Speaker C

Wearing the same ponytails.

Speaker C

I was doing my makeup the same way.

Speaker C

But when it comes to Friday the 13th, I kind of think it's a mindset, like the voodoo, the.

Speaker C

You know, if you think it's going to be bad, it might be bad.
