Speaker 1:Um, then we had to run into the guesting suite because the photographers insisted we come in there in a two second break to do photos that they wanted us to do. And who was in there? But the famous robert de niro, the actor, and, and all of a sudden the photographers start following us around and I was like what's happening in here? And then he spoke to us and the cameras went wild, because apparently he doesn't do photos, he doesn't do videos, he just stays silent. Well, not with us. He was petting us, talking to us. He was so nice, not with us. And his wife said they have 18 dogs, I know 18. I couldn't believe that. My head spun when she told me that I was like wait, what? There's only two of us, crazy, yeah, okay. Then we met Chris Olsen and Ryan Trainor, who were obsessed with us, taking us all over the place and Ryan's like my sister's coming out. She wants to see you girls. So we knew, oh gosh, meghan Traynor's going to come say hi to us.

So we go into our usual door and the lady's like no, you have to go around the block to the other VIP entrance and we're like no, this is our VIP entrance.
Speaker 1:And she's like no. So I was like, oh goodness, so out we go in the cold and walk to the other vip and let me just remind everyone that for some reason, yesterday was the coldest day ever.
Speaker 1:It was like 20 degrees in new york city plus a wind chill. So, needless to say, when human god is in there, she looked crazy, yeah, and we it was so cold, yeah. So we go to that other v VIP entrance around the corner and they say, no, what are you doing? What are you doing here? This is you got to go in the talent. You got to go in the VIP talent. I said they send us here so they go go back around. She's like you don't want to go in this elevator. This is like for the workers, the photographers.

Speaker 1:I don't care what elevator, I'll sit on someone's shoulders and go up there. Nope, go back around. Your hosts are waiting for you. Okay, here we go Back around to VIP. We walk in and all of a sudden it's like hi, wait, weren't we just here? That you don't remember? You told us no.
Speaker 1:And now you're like hi, yeah, now they're just like okay, go ahead. I'm like, seriously, I think the top people must have called them and yelled at them. I don't know, it was so strange, so strange, but whatever. Then we went up to floor five and there we are, went up and Everybody we went up to floor five and there we are. Everybody greeted us, celebration.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so many celebrations.
Speaker 1:Yeah, drama.
Speaker 3:Other drama. Well, if you guys don't hear already, we have our nice neighbor dog.
Speaker 1:Okay so I'm just going to say this Screaming barking. This is because we decided to do it today that we have to deal with his insanity. He's losing it because he's jealous of us? I guess so Of all of our adventures.
Speaker 3:He can't deal living near such famous pups.
Speaker 1:I saw this guy once. I was like I don't like you Go away. I'm like don't even think about it. Now he's really mad. So our studio is not bad Soundproof apparently Not at all. Yeah, so wait, you said Tink, you think there was more drama for us to spill?
Speaker 3:Oh well, there's just the other. So there was one artist that we were so excited to meet, oh yes, and then this whole story was fabricated. This whole story was fabricated, this whole story.
Speaker 1:I was like say it so, hold on, it was so ridiculous. So we were very excited to meet Gracie Abrams. Yeah, so excited. So we're there, we're working, meeting everyone. Everyone's hugging us, kissing us, throwing us all over Woo-hoo and the iHeart team goes over and goes. Guys, just so you know, gracie's highly allergic to dogs, so when she comes in, just don't go near her kind of thing.
Speaker 2:So I'm like oh okay.
Speaker 1:So Tink and I are like she's not allergic to dogs, she's got a dog. It's on her Instagram, yeah, she has a wiener dog, yeah, but we didn't say anything because it's okay, because we were wanted at the stage anyway for the end of Shibuzy and for some photos at stage. So we're like, okay, we'll do it then and we'll fit it in.
Speaker 3:So we come back.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So we saw the time that she was doing it and we're like, okay, I guess we have to, just, we'll just leave, because like didn't want to cause any. Yeah, so that's. The drama was that the her team made up a fake story that she's allergic to dogs. Well, you better delete them off her Instagram, because they're there with her Cuddling, cuddling and we are hypoallergenic. I don't think wiener dogs are.
Speaker 3:No, I just think. Like they didn't want to the distraction, yeah, they didn't want the attention taken away from her Because honestly, we do steal the spotlight.
Speaker 1:Not to be conceited or anything, but like I get it. She's kind of like not as big as everyone, so she's gotta be more herself. But, guess what? We could have shared you, gracie, and made you more popular. Whatever we're in Rolling Stone without you. So we know it wasn't you, we know it was your team, and one day we will meet. Yes, that's the tea. We will.
Speaker 3:One day.
Speaker 1:It wasn't bad tea.
Speaker 3:No it. It's just we knew it was her team made up a fake story.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was like that's like such a fake story yeah, like you should have thought of a better one, like all you had to say was we don't want her to touch the pups because just in case. Xyz, I don't know whatever made up a better story, but that was really bad. That was a bad story. Maxwell, get on that Stop it, stop it. So what? I think my favorite part was oh gosh, this is so hard. Could be Shibuzy or the Trainers, or Jimmy Fallon.
Speaker 3:For me, I think you have to go with the.
Speaker 1:Trainers yeah, I was with them for like an hour.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you were for a long time they were not going to let you go.
Speaker 1:I thought they were taking me home and I was going to get nervous soon, but then Jimmy came in. That's when Jimmy came in and he's like Need the dog. So all of a sudden it was peace out trainers and thrown in Jimmy's arms, yep, yeah, what was your favorite? I think my favorite was katie perry because, yeah, she held me, she held you and she's an icon yeah, she's like the biggest star there and like she was like so she actually was like.
Speaker 3:So nice though, like and you know what else so chill and the team was so chill yeah, and she told us people that are like not even I don't even know their name point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, these people who are not as big think you know whatever. Um, the other thing about katie perry was that she was so nice and she told us that her dog is an eternal puppy looking too, oh.
Speaker 2:She did.
Speaker 1:She's like, yeah, and then what else? I think it was just funny, shaboosie, because no one expected that He'd grab us like that.
Speaker 3:I know, even Shaboosie's team said that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, here Wait.
Speaker 3:Someone else? Oh no, I don't think he's going to do dogs.
Speaker 1:So we're standing there and what was the team that came over and said, uh, they're not gonna be able to say hi to you. Was that his team?
Speaker 3:no, whose team was that? No, that was um. No, oh no, I think. Wait, who was it?
Speaker 1:wang ho. No well, someone's team was like they're not going to be able to say hi, but they love you, we love you whatever, and we're like okay. And then, all of a sudden, we were whisked into their arms.
Speaker 3:They behind to us.
Speaker 1:Who was that? I forgot now. We'll think of it, but it was just funny, because the team thinks they're all that, but then the performers don't, they're just normal. The funny, because the team thinks they're all that, but then the performers don't. Then the performers, they're just normal, the performers. But the team is like oh, you got to do this, you got to do that, and the performers are like I know, it's so stupid.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's how it always is.
Speaker 1:Oh, I remember the girl McKenzie, mckenna Grace. Oh, was it her.

Speaker 1:So um, oh this must be about us, martha.
Speaker 3:Stewart yes.
Speaker 1:No not.
Speaker 3:Yeah, can I say something? She recycled gold pants and shoes at Jingle Ball in NYC for a second year in a row.
Speaker 1:Oh wait, so we said that.
Speaker 3:So when I yeah, when I saw her and you know me like I'm a fashion pup I realized she was wearing the same pants.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we see her coming towards us and Tink's like Bill, she's got the same outfit on. I was like she has the same outfit on, or at least, and I was like, yeah, let's get our pictures from last year, or I did remember the gold pants. And do a side by side.
Speaker 3:Yeah, which I didn't, but they did it for us, wow, but they did it for us, wow. They heard you and she wore the same pants and shoes. As last year, but just a different top and jacket and earrings. Yeah, and it's called recycled fashion. She's sustainable for the holidays.
Speaker 1:We're not. We wear something different everywhere we go.
Speaker 3:But I mean, it's not that bad.
Speaker 1:She's a nice lady. I like her a lot. Cute gold pants.
Speaker 3:Very nice lady.
Speaker 1:So nice to us Very jingle ball-ish.
Speaker 3:Yes, so that was my first story.
Speaker 1:I like it.
Speaker 3:Because I had to tell you that it made a story.
Speaker 1:It's what we said and in fact we were in the car and we were like yeah, I think that's what I'm saying, and like looked it up? Yeah, because they do a side by side and everything, yeah, and all the press is near us 24 7 when we're there, so it's not like you know they do hear us okay, so this week, yesterday was the queen's birthday. Yes, she didn't appear for us.
Speaker 3:No, she didn't appear what do you mean? At Jingle Ball. Because you were like, maybe she'll appear. I was like, maybe she'll be at Jingle Ball. Yeah, I was like I don't think so.
Speaker 1:Tink, Don't get your hopes up.
Speaker 3:No, but she was spoiled by Travis Kelsey at a private 35th birthday celebration. Travis Kelsey pulled out all the stops for Taylor Swift's 35th birthday Friday night, we're told the pop superstar and Kansas City Chief tight end also 35, rang in the milestone at a private celebration. Just them two. He got her a ton of gifts. There was speculation online as to whether Kelsey had to skip out on Swift's birthday plans, since he was spotted on Chiefs heiress Gracie Hunt's Instagram story attending a Christmas party for the NFL team. However, our insider confirms that, while that engagement was mandatory, the Super Bowl champ made sure to leave early to go be with Taylor for her birthday.
Speaker 1:Oh, I get it. He did the two things in the day.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so let's see, swift had a lot to celebrate after wrapping up her Blockbuster Hours tour on December 8th and yeah, I'm not getting any really info on like what they did.
Speaker 1:Where did they go to dinner In Kansas City, boy, that must be fun. Sorry Kansas City people, but I don't know. I would think she would want to be in New York or LA for her birthday dinner. Like, what do you get Taylor Swift for her birthday? Nothing, she has everything.
Speaker 3:Like? What do you? I don't know. It says that he has been shopping for Christmas and birthday gifts for her for quite a while. What, like? What are these items that you're buying for?
Speaker 1:her. He's probably buying her Chief's clothes to wear to the games.
Speaker 3:I like, really want to know. Yeah, inquiring minds want to know, I mean, I feel like she probably just wanted a chill birthday because she's tired. My next story was that not only I love this woman. She finishes her tour. What does she do a couple days later? Goes to a children's hospital.
Speaker 1:Yes, she did, but he went with her. Yes, but like I know she could have slept, I know she could have slept for the week Tours around the world. She could have slept for a week taken a week off, but she didn't.
Speaker 2:No, and she distributed and signed her book.
Speaker 3:Yeah, gave out her book, signed it. She made TikToks with kids.
Speaker 1:Yeah, One of the kids was like I don't want a book.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and there was one where, like the kid was not that into it, but the the dad, I think, was there and he was like the mom yeah, freaking out because the mom was like he was trying to like save time, like have taylor stay there as long as possible, because the mom was like rushing to the hospital because she's a swifty Mm-hmm, my gosh, but those videos they killed me.
Speaker 1:So good, so good, so good I was crying puppy tears. Yeah.

Speaker 3:I don't know, I'm not the biggest fan of this couple.
Speaker 1:I like her if she's happy, and she's gone through a lot and the ring is pretty, so gorgeous it's like a big Empire State Building on her finger.

Speaker 1:Yes, of course. Well, no, yes, of course they're going to get married.
Speaker 3:Well, I feel like people get engaged all the time but then don't actually. Sometimes they don't get Celebrities.
Speaker 1:Celebrities, oh you mean like just being engaged is like being married and that's all, like they don't need to go to the marriage. No, I just I don't know, maybe they won't.
Speaker 3:I don't know if they'll make it. They've only been dating for a year.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but he's saying his wife already, so maybe that's just it now. They just that's it.
Speaker 3:No, I don't think that. I'm just saying I feel like people get engaged a lot, celebrities get engaged a lot and then all of a sudden it's not happening anymore.

Speaker 3:I don't really know the guy. Well, yeah, I don't think anyone really does unless you actually know them.

Speaker 3:Okay, but that's not the question.
Speaker 1:Questions are they going to get married?

Yeah, um, and I want a better wedding dress than the one, and only murders in the village yeah, me too that wasn't very nice. Yeah, I want, I want a better dress, she deserves she deserves the best.
Speaker 1:Taylor can help her get a better dress.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, imagine going to shop for your wedding dress with Taylor Swift.
Speaker 1:No, I don't think they go anywhere. I think the person comes to them and says what do? You want, I will make it for you. Yes, the person will come, they're not going shopping to the stores, what they're going to do that show yes to the dress.
Speaker 3:That would honestly be the best. I think, like so many people that would. The ratings would go through the roof if it's like selena gomez and taylor yes to the dress with taylor and just a bunch of their other friends yeah I would watch that I know I would too, too, I'd watch that episode.
Speaker 1:Yeah, me too. Sure, why not? Yeah, but they're very happy together. I'm very happy for her because she's had a rocky road, me too. Smooth it out now.
Speaker 3:Okay, okay. And that's it. Honestly, okay, I didn't have that many stories because, because we're the stories today, because I was like we have a lot to talk about?
Speaker 1:Yeah, we do. I've just got a couple of quick little stories. Yeah, what are your stories? I'm moving on to my pup culture for today.
Speaker 3:Okay.
Speaker 1:Here we go. First story Labrador Retriever delivers 17 puppies. Her owner thinks the little dogs are a record-breaking litter. Labrador Retriever delivers 17 puppies. Her owner thinks the little dogs are a record-breaking litter. It's easy to lose count when tallying up Roxy May's puppies. The six-year-old Labrador Retriever gave birth to 17 puppies this month. Unfortunately, one of the puppies did not survive the delivery, according to the Illinois news outlet. So what is that 16 then? Roxy Mae's owner, john Swartz of Illinois, told my journal Korea that the Labrador started delivering puppies and continued through the next night. The first puppy was not breathing, but he said he was able to bring the little dog back using CPR. Wow.
Speaker 1:After the dramatic delivery, roxy Mae and her pet parents are focused on caring for the 16 surviving puppies, who arrived in an array of fur colors. Five of the baby canines are chocolate colored, like their mom, one has black fur, seven are silver and three are charcoal gray. Schwartz's other Labrador, rufus, is the dad of the litter. Look at it, okay ready. Here they all are. You can't even see them all. Whoa, that's crazy. So he thinks that 16 puppies could be the record breaker, even though they had 17, but it ended up with 16. The Guinness book lists a 24 pup litter born to a mastiff in 2004. But he thinks then this is the largest for the Labrador Retriever breed, so he's going to try to get the record. Okay, if there is one, but geez 16. Good luck feeding them.
Speaker 1:My second story Lost dog from Colorado walked 1,200 miles to Indiana before being reunited with owners. One pet owner got a surprise of a lifetime when her dog, diva, who had been missing for two months, turned up roughly 1,200 miles from her home in Colorado Springs. Colorado Veterinary technician Maggie and Elizabeth at the Oak Knoll Veterinary Clinic in Rolling Prairie, indiana, first met the dog when a good Samaritan brought Diva in after seeing her wandering down the road near her practice. Upon scanning the dog's chip and contacting her owner, they learned that Diva had been missing for two months and lived four states away. I didn't think I was going to ever see her again because she's been gone for two months, they said. The first question was how did she get there?
Speaker 1:Thornberry and Danielle volunteered to meet Diva's owner, maria Rodriguez, halfway at a dog park in Kansas City, missouri, making the eight-hour drive with the scared dog to reunite her with Rodriguez and her fiancé Green. It was a super fulfilling experience, she said. I'm applying for veterinarian school this month, so I'm so excited. The vet field can be so draining emotionally and incredibly hard at times, but it's moments like this that remind us why we do what we do. It was so heartwarming that we want to just do it over again.
Speaker 1:The adorable dog was anxious after being rescued by the practice, but, according to Thornberry, she turned into a completely different dog after seeing her mom. The reunion was captured on camera. The dog quickly rushed her aside, jumping up to greet her and wagging her tail. Rodriguez agrees that Diva recognized her upon the reunion, noting she remembered all of us and who we were. Diva is proof that dogs do know who their human is. So this is Diva. So they still don't know how she got 1,200 miles away and walked back. See, wow, walked back. Can you imagine? Walked all the way back.
Speaker 1:She's okay, and you know there's nothing wrong with her. She just walked 1,200 miles, jeez Okay. Last quick story Muppet, a tiny pink canine with a comb over and a few missing teeth, wins the ugliest dog title.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, Wait, it's actually not that ugly, I think.
Speaker 1:He's not that ugly. I don't think so either. He kind of looks like an.
Speaker 3:I don't know, like an alien, one of those dogs that are hairless Like an astronaut.
Speaker 1:Move over.
Speaker 1:Peggy, I don't even know, A new pooch has just been named Britain's ugliest dog. Meet Muppet, a Chinese crested dog from Peterborough. I think Muppet is cute too, with his tooth mouth, his tongue hanging out. The unique canine has a tongue that permanently hangs out of the side of his mouth and an intriguing hairstyle. The 12-year-old dog also has several missing teeth. She won the title after beating out seven others in a competition. The competition was aired live on ITV's this Morning Show. We didn't think we'd find another dog like last year's winner, peggy, they said, but Muppet manages to be both cute and ugly all at the same time, and we think that that is star quality. Look so Muppet's happy. I love the hair on top. Yeah, me too she has long hair.
Speaker 1:It's beautiful on her head, it's really cute. It's more human like.
Speaker 3:Muppets, the cutest, ugliest dog yeah, so go Muppet.
