Well Travis Kelsey is officially a doggy daddy and apparently he is loving it. So insiders are saying the Travis is quote, pretty obsessed with his new Samoyed Wendy and they say that he treats her like a child, which honestly I do the same with my dog, so say. But Wendy is apparently Travis's little shadow and the insider says she's incredibly sweet and super cuddly and that she's so attached to him. He brings her literally everywhere he can. I'm obsessed. And yes, Taylor is very much part of
this dog parent situation too. Don't worry. They had talked about getting Wendy for a while and apparently they've had it for quite some time. Now Travis even suggested bringing Wendy to his Tommy Hill figure campaign and the photos. Oh my god, they were so so so cute. Now Wendy is a little over a year old and has officially joined Taylor's three cats, Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson and Benjamin Button making it a four pet household for the newlyweds. If you want to get more on this, of course I got you on my blog. Now moving on to Kelly Rowland. She has some really good girl group wisdom for the ladies of CatSai. Now they've been dealing with some major lineup changes and I mean who better to give advice than Destiny Childs Kelly Rowland. But two members of Menon and Sophia have both stepped back from CatSai to focus on their health and well-being and now CatSai is performing as a four piece and Kelly knows a thing or two about lineup changes. Now Destiny Child went through their own shakeups as we know but her biggest advice. Take care of yourself individually while still supporting the group. She says your health is one of the most
sacred things that you have and she also told the girls to listen to themselves, be kind to themselves and continue supporting one another through every season. And we're going to wrap up this morning with Sydney Swini and Scooter Braun because they are keeping their relationship very public. The two of them were just about kissing during a gondola ride in Venice and honestly it's just giving like chick flick vibes and I'm obsessed but they were photographed getting very cozy in the water before walking through the city hand in hand. Now Sydney is in Venice for the Venice film festival where she's promoting some of her latest projects and attending events as in our money beauty ambassador. But Venice is definitely full circle for them. They first met at Jeff Basso's in Lawrence Sanchez's wedding last year which was also in Venice. The pictures are really sweet though. If you want to check them out and get more on all of these stories, I got you kiss957.com key with Savannah and until next time the best tea is the kind you can't sip. All right it is kiss 757 Walmart Jeff hanging out with you and I am joined by the voice of
Yukon football Mike Crispino from Fox Sports Radio 979 Mike welcome to the show. Walmart good to talk to you. Yeah it's always good to talk to you. That means football is here and yeah the big game is tomorrow Yukon taking on Lafayette at the rent starting at noon a new year a new coach and new players Mike tell us everything we need to know. Well Jeff it's it's the unbelievable what's happening in college football and all college sports now with so many people transferring to different schools but especially when you get a new football coach Jason Candle came from Toledo where he was very successful had no losing records in 10 years won 81 games lost just 44. Wow I went to seven bowl games so the good news is Yukon was able to hire a quality coach when Jim Moore went to Colorado State and Jason Candle brought a lot of Toledo rockets with him which is helpful to get the roster you know some momentum and 60 new players from the portal 87 new players
total there's a couple guys you'll remember a Shemar Porter from last year wide receiver he's back and the offensive lineman who transferred from Notre Dame Tide can is back as Yukon gets set to take on Lafayette which is an FCS school they play in the Patriot League smaller schools like a Fordham Georgetown Villanova Holy Cross schools like that so it'll be a good test to start the season there's a lot of you know question marks right now but who's gonna play quarterback I'm gonna talk to coach Jason Candle later today and he's gonna probably tell me who the starter is but right now it could be a colleague Osborne where's number seven he came from Toledo big guy 64 218 and or Jake Merleick Merlinger who is from Tennessee and he's a big guy two six three two fifteen he wears number four so we don't know the QB is gonna be we'll probably know tomorrow obviously when they
snap the ball but that's one of the big question marks beginning the season we're talking to Mike Crispino voice of Yukon football Fox Sports Radio 97 nine Yukon kicking off their game tomorrow at the rent versus Lafayette and the weather for your tailgate and football viewing pleasure looks great it looks like it's gonna be like upper seventies low eighties partly sunny partly cloudy whatever you want to call it it's gonna be a great day for college football right Mike yeah Jeff I'll tell you is there nothing like being in a stadium when college football starts we haven't seen it obviously in eight months so people are pretty excited I gotta tell you I was that Walmart in windum on the weekend last weekend and all the cheerleaders came and Jonathan the Husky was there and when you're in person with the folks that are on the field and the players obviously who watch them at practice it's exciting because it's like that hands on thing right where you see everybody in action that's why you go to the stadium I think because there's nothing like it
you can watch games on TV you can listen on radio that's all good but there's nothing like being there and physically watching a game in the environment that the rent has I mean you get 30 thousand people in there at least and it gets crazy it gets loud and it's fun and of course you got your tailgate's going we play it noon so you get there you have breakfast a lot of people are cooking sausage and eggs and all kinds of stuff ribs anything in the morning to get them it's just a blast and I just can't tell you how exciting that is because it's September now that's October best time of year to watch football absolutely a hundred percent and Mike I will say I was also at that Walmart up in windum and it was so cool because all the Yukon students were heading back to the dorms and it was so cool seeing all the Yukon students and families buying Yukon and all that great stuff up there so Saturday tomorrow the stadium is going to be buzzing can't wait for the first football game of the new season Mike tell everyone where we can check out
the game. Jeff is 97-9 FM Fox Sports locally and then the Borsany Network app is great because people around the country or Yukon fans pick up on that a lot of people tell us they listen to us all over the country also it's on serious XM263 so there's a lot of places you can pick up on it we start our coverage around 9 a.m. Bob Joyce has a great free game show all the information you need so it tons of great interviews so while you're coming to the game while you're tailgating two nattin on Fox Sports 97-9 of the Yukon Sports Network. Awesome Mike thank you for your time have a great call during the game tomorrow and we will talk week two you've got it Jim thanks I cannot believe it is Friday Labor Day weekend it is Kiss 957 oh my gosh you're here the unofficial end of summer Courtney. I know I'm going to be shout out to anybody I see going down the farming tin because we are a group whole group of us doing probably the last farming tin river run on our
paddle boards and kayaks and canoes. Is it busy where you're running into other people literally on the farming tin court. You know what Jeff we really don't run into anybody there's like ball the eagles. Yeah just us it's pretty cool. It's pretty cool so anyway last river run how about you guys are you camping warmer Jeff. Yeah I'll be camping and relaxing and I may hit up like the woodstock fair. Oh yeah. Because we camp out in that area and it's just a hop skip jumping away. You will love it. There's lots of fairs happening this weekend at 750 I'll tell you where to go for sure and Savannah who's going to trump the both of us while I'm easily paddling down the farming tin on my paddle board and Walmart is camping by a river somewhere. Where are you going to be Savannah Saturday night going to see Harry Styles at Madison Square Garden with my friends. I can't have you ever been to a concert at MSG. Yeah I saw Queen with Adam Lambert. Okay yeah it's a good place. It was a phenomenal show by the way like so good. All right and you're going to give us a full report. I'm going to give you a full report and if you want to keep up with all the insta stories and everything going down you can follow me on insta at real savanna G. All right well Jake is standing by he went
on a first date. That totally ghosted. Sounds like he got his heart broken and we're going to find out why we're going to call his date second date update coming up next. All right Windsor is where we're going. Yeah my hometown. Jake is on the line that goes to after a first date and needs answers. Good morning Jake. Good morning. Hey welcome to the show. Tell us about this first date you went on. Yeah thanks. It's very confused. The date went great. Okay. There was I would say like an immediate attraction that we had and I took it to this winery. You know so we had wine and chatted for hours and then we went back to her place. We watched a movie. You know it was just like a great time. I don't really I've keep looking back and thinking like how could it have gone any better. How so Jake the date. So you're telling me the date was so good that you ended the day back at her place. In Hacley. Did you guys hook up? Yes. Stop. It's actually good. Do a little dance to the Hoki Poki.
Yes. Well, well, well, a gentleman doesn't kiss and tell. Okay. Yeah. I like that. Congratulations. When you say that everyone knows. Still, I mean, you can read between the lines if you'd like, but I just thought, and I don't want to get into details. I think it's best to leave it at that. Okay. You have a great date. You end the night at her place. Do you did you send her a text or call her after the date? Well, they texted her the next morning and this was a few days ago. She didn't respond. Question. Did you go through her drawers? Because I had a friend that that happened too. Which drawers? Oleg dresser drawers? Yeah. Like he went through her stuff once. Yeah. No. Okay. Just go through her drawers. All right. Sorry, Jake. Okay. So you did reach out to her and you got ghosted. Exactly. She didn't respond and yeah, it was just such a perfect evening. I just don't understand what happened. I really can't even speculate. Okay. What we're going to do is put you on hold. You're going to be listening in. We're going to call up Hannah and we're going to
ask her how the date was. At any point, if you want to jump in, you can. Okay. Okay. Let's do it. Keep it clean, Jeff. I mean, you don't have to like, oh, go into Pound Town on that stuff you say. I mean, you just said it. You didn't need to. I know. What was up with that? Because I know it's coming out of your mouth. Hello. Hi, is Hannah there? This is Hannah. Hi, Hannah. It's Courtney. Hannah, it's Walmart Jeff. Hey, Hannah. It's Savannah. How are you? That was really cute. Thanks. I try. Hannah, we're calling from Kiss 957. You're on the radio this morning. Okay. Yeah. You're on something called second date update. I'm sure you're familiar with it. If somebody goes on a first date, they get ghosted after a great first date. We try to get the answer. So we just want you to be honest with us. All right. It's honest as you can be. Let me refresh your memory. Jake called us. You guys went out to dinner. It was a fabulous date. It was such a good date that he ended up back at your place watching
movies. Yeah. Where you guys may or may not have hooked up. We didn't get a straight answer. Yeah. We didn't get a straight answer as to what you actually did at your house. But he says he's he reached out to you the next day and stuff and you're totally ghosting him. So how was the date for you? The day was great. I you know, the attraction was there. We had a great time. We had some wine. We we chatted a lot. You know, we were really vibing and I just feel like once we spent more time together, he just doesn't seem like my type of guy. Like he I'm looking for someone that's a little more confident. Confident. Okay. All right. So the day was great. Wine vibing, but he wasn't confident. Like when you got back to your house, he wasn't confident. Yeah. Can we clarify a little bit here? He just doesn't like a take torch kind of guy like that confident. He's smooth. He's got swagger. Yeah. Like a swag. He wasn't a guy that I would normally
go for. Okay. Did you guys hook up? I mean, I hate to ask the question, but it needs to be asked. Was he not good? Was he not good in bed? Did he cry at the movie? Oh my god. Girl, worse. He cried after we hooked up. Wait, wait, wait, wait. So he didn't cry. Savannah. So he did cry. Oh my god. So you guys were intimate and then he cried? Yeah, and I couldn't shake that. It's like all I kept thinking about and I was like, I can't do this. I mean, who cries after? You know how that made me feel? Like what was it? Like that? Right. Yeah. We're there. We're there. Tears of joy or why? Why did he cry after sex? I don't know. He was just really emotional and it just made me uncomfortable. You know, like he wasn't manly. I don't know. It was so weird. Can we just? Hey, Jake, why are you crying after sex? What's up with that? Oh, I'm doing crying.
Well, first of all, I'm very disappointed to hear her going into details like this. It was a magical evening for me. It meant a lot to me. So yeah, they were tears of joy. I would say the fact that we're even talking about this is just embarrassing. Honestly, like, oh, wait, he shouldn't kiss and tell you there. This is like kind of what? This isn't someone I'm looking to see anyway. I'm kind of glad this all came out now because you just not have to type of person I'm looking for. She could have over a lady than I am. What are you talking about? Exactly. Who cries after doing it? Right. I just was he sitting like at the edge of the bed on the corner of the bed? I was like, yeah, or like, I don't know. Maybe I triggered some trauma or something, but it was like he just saw the notebook. You know what I mean? Like, it was just crying.
All right. So we got to the bottom of it. Jake, I feel like you guys just, you made a connection at some point and then it went south just because he shed a couple of tears. Well, hold on. Was it a couple of tears? It was a ballin. There was a, it was water works and keep in mind it was after we did it. Okay. Yes. That's the worst time to cry. You should ask him if he wanted some cheese with that wine. Stop. Stop shaming him. All right. Well, listen, we usually offer to pay for another day to, if you guys can work through things, but I feel like it's just not a match. You know what I mean? No. Jake, maybe. Absolutely not. Let somebody a little more sensitive and Hannah, you want somebody a little less cry. Yeah. Let's cry. Yeah. Listen, you got your answer. Hannah, I appreciate you being honest. And I wish you guys both well in the dating world. Thanks. You know, we're headed into fall when your makeup just doesn't look the same anymore. It is kiss 95 seven. What is your good news Savannah? Yeah. So the biggest fall makeup trend we're going to be seeing is suede eyeshadow.
What? No, it's that. It's kind of like a cousin of the smoky eye, but it's a little bit more cozy. It's softer. It's matte slightly sheer and it's blended out. I'm sitting instead of being like super dramatic. And you keep all of like the traditional smoky shades like tan, buff, chocolate, taupe. And what's really cool is it's super wearable. Like you can literally just put one shade across your lid and then just blend the edges. So nothing sparkly. We're getting out of the whole sparkly, getting into the mat. Yeah, into the mat into like that very warm kind of palette. All right. Good news for brides. It's still bridal season. There's lots of, you know, weddings in the fall. Hines ketchup just unleashed or unveiled a limited edition $57. Silk bridal bib designed to protect your wedding dress from late night snacks. Genius. Like French fries and burgers. It's made from ketchup red silk. It's got a little Hines ketchup bottle stitched into, you know, stitched into it. Yeah. Ruby accents model Jordan Woods was the first to actually wear it. Of course. Had it during her wedding reception. That's pretty cool. So if you want it,
you got to look it up on the Hines website. That is my good news. Walmart. How about you? Yeah. Tomorrow is a big day for you. Con football. Courtney. There's season kicks off at the rent. In East Hartford playing Lafayette on new at noon. Okay. New coach. New season. And if you want to listen to the game on the radio tomorrow afternoon, if you're driving around, yes, box sports radio 979 is where you can catch it. I love it. All right. Stung on pop. Who's with my mother? Gale on my dad JP. They live in New Hampshire. They listen on their smart speaker. And they have to answer the questions correctly. If not, Savannah gets a done Walmart job, which is a very satisfying feeling. I must know. No, no, we should try stunning. So what else? But we're going into fall and he's wearing, you know, he's going to have a living on daddy. Yes, dear. Good morning. Oh, what's going on? Um, phone doesn't work anymore. Well, we don't ever call your house phone. We actually call your home phone, don't we? I mean, we call your cell phone. You just call your chest. Just call the home phone. So how does it not work if we just call that and you didn't answer, but you knew we called right?
Right. Okay. Something. It rang. But you couldn't hear me. It's 30 years old. The **** is a bed. Okay. Okay. Did you just swear, dad? Well, you guys have you guys **** the bed. Okay. All right. Have you guys been listening? Yes. Of course. All right. Absolutely. This should be good. I just want to. All right. This should be easy. Here we go. Question number one is done. God. Pop. Cause of my mother, Gail, my dad, JP, which artist just married her brother last weekend? Billy. I wish. No hesitation. Wow. Give them right on it today. Yeah. Right on. She officiated her brother's wedding. So that brings me to this question. Do you know any of our relatives that married each other? No, I don't. Oh, I really don't. All right. No, nothing quite. Okay. Nothing. Nothing current. Nothing current.
Okay. Let's move on. Stung gum. Pop quiz. Question number two. How many gift cards were in Walmart Jeff's wife's purse? I'm going to boy that one. I'm going to say 23. Oh, wow. That's how we want to give her a chance. Give her a chance. She said 23. Yeah. You said 23, right, mom? Yes. No. 17. 17. Well, that's still a lot. It is. Yeah. But we're looking for the right answer. We weren't looking for the one that was a lot. Well, I was. I was. Yeah. You're always looking for the right answer. That's right. That's right. All right. The last question. Here we are. Stung gum. Pop quiz. What article of clothing does Savannah's father not wear? I've been in a boat. I've been in a slime ball. Stop. Stop. Stop. Don't know. It's not a block. But Janet. What's the answer here? I'm so excited.
She got it. The banana balls like like sunscreen. Now and then my dad said the banana saw. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You probably said so. Okay. I like banana slings. You guys threw out a bunch of different banana references right there. Too many for comfort honestly. Right. Yeah. I'm. All right. Mom, did dad ever rock a banana hammock? Not that I remember. Oh, okay. All right. Well, guess what? We're going to send you a Courtney and kiss in the morning. But a hammock in the mail for winning the Stung gum pop quiz this week. As long as I can lay in it and scream by the trees. That's not a pandemic. Stop. I don't know. That's not a problem. She's like, oh, I can't deal with this. Oh, I'm really, really. She probably could lay in a dash. She's like, oh, yeah.
All right. There's been that roommate for her. Okay. All right. Well, I love you, mom. I love you, dad. I hope you have a wonderful day. Thank you. Bye, Walmart. Bye, Savannah. Happy maybe day weekend. Naked men, marijuana and turtles. One I actually really like. It is kiss 95 seven time for Walmart. Just Jones is that the figure out which one? Friends. Turtle. I know. Turtles. So basically I find some news headlines from Florida because a lot of crazy things happen in Florida. And throughout the world, I'll read you a news headline. You just have to tell me where it happened. Okay. And I love when you Courtney and Savannah team up together and talk things out to figure it out. Okay. All right. And these are all listener submissions except one. Okay. The first one comes from Debbie on Instagram who is a total milk, by the way. Oh, and I can say that because I've known Debbie for like 20 years. Okay. So I feel like that's kind of insulting or rude. Not to the milk. No, they like it. They like it. They like it. Okay. Debbie sent me this headline. Woman says she found marijuana
in her nieces happy meal. Did that happen in Florida or somewhere else in the world? So then I'd like to go world just because I know that marijuana is not yet legal in Florida. I was thinking the same thing. Interesting. But if you have a medical card though, you can. I'm still going to go somewhere else in the world. I agree. All right. You guys are correct. Yeah. I'm not saying we're smart. That actually happened in Middletown. Oh, wait, which McDonald's? I don't know. Oh my god. Okay. This next one comes from Evalina on Instagram. I hope that didn't screw that name up. Okay. The headline reads, woman caught smuggling turtles inside her bra. Where did that happen? Did that happen in Florida or somewhere else in the world? Wait, I saw this. I saw this on social media. Okay. Shoot. Can I just say I would like to lean towards turtles because I participated in a turtle release program on Flagler Beach once, which is Florida. Oh, we also we also did one in Jamaica, Courtney.
Yeah, you and I did it in Jamaica too. So it could be somewhere else in the world. But I feel like Florida has a big like turtle thing going on. I forget which airport this was at. Oh my god. Come on. I can't remember Florida. Florida. Florida. She's talking out. I say Florida. Florida is correct. Oh, I literally saw it. It was so crazy. Also don turtles bite. No. Some turtles snapping turtles too. Yeah. Snapsnap. This next headline, this is something that keeps me up at night when I'm thinking of my friend, Courtney. Okay. Man exposes himself during Facebook market place meetup. That happened in Florida or somewhere else in the world. Courtney is a big fan of the old Facebook marketplace. It's weird. You can make money on Facebook marketplace. I can but there are also a lot of weirdos out there. Yeah. Yes. Quite a few. I think I'd like to go somewhere else in the world. I was just saying it's giving world. It's giving you guys our correct. Did we get free for three? Three for three. We're so smart.
That one actually happened in Will Mantek. Wow. Hello. Hello. Mantek. Yeah, Connecticut coming up with these four to headlines this week. Oh my god. If you find any of these crazy headlines, you can slide into my DMs on Insta at Walmart Jeff. I cannot believe it is Friday the 4th of September. It is kiss 95 seven going into labor day weekend.

You've got Woodstock Fair, had him neck fair and goch and fair this weekend. Well, the had him neck fair might hit up the Woodstock fair for the first time. Really? Yeah.

It is kiss 95 seven time for your vibe, Czech Savannah. Yeah. So new travel trends are taken over in 2027. And I'm kind of in on a lot of these. They're really cool. OK, because you're our traveler here. I could care less. I would much rather travel by RV and see my country. Yeah. That's just my that's just me. Yeah, there's a lot to see. And you get an RV. There's a lot to see. Yeah, my wife doesn't fly. So I'm not sitting on an airplane. Well, I also don't like to fly. But Savannah, you're our flyer. Well, there's a great big world out there. Lots of people, cultures, places to see. I want to see them all. OK. And if you want to travel to, here's the trends you should be following next year. So follow is actually going to be the new summer, especially like with European travel. Usually like June, July, August, big months. Now people are shifting to September and October, which is pretty cool. OK. Best of travel is going to be super hot. So traveling around the holidays, Christmas, New Year's. OK, I love New Year's trips. I feel like it's more expensive, though. You got a fan of them and you're like,
let's go away for Christmas. Those plane tickets are super expensive. But you know what, it's, I really do like a New Year's trip because you have something to do. And no matter what you're doing, you're just happy to be there. My parents would take us to the tropics during hurricane season because it was cheap. Oh, nice. We weren't going, you know, we weren't going. Yeah. When you're supposed to go. All right. Well, if you want to check out city, city travel is back for a while. I feel like people were really into like the rule kind of situation. Cities are back. And luxury cruising is going to be a big thing in 2027. Yeah, cruising is big. My friends all loved you. Like to cruise at all? You know what? I do love cruising. I think it's super fun. All right. Walmart Jeff, you're like, no, just in my RV. I cruising down to Connecticut River.
