Speaker 1: You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
Speaker 1: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2: It's Later with Mo Kelly in a very special pre
Speaker 2: Mother's Day show. As we're celebrating moms everywhere, those who
Speaker 2: are still with us, those who.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately may have left us and passed on.
Speaker 2: I wanted to put the call out to you so
Speaker 2: you would give us a call and let us know
Speaker 2: maybe some sage advice your bomb gave you. Maybe you
Speaker 2: want to shout out your mom who's maybe not physically
Speaker 2: with you, but could be listening, or could be watching
Speaker 2: even on YouTube or maybe Instagram live. Or maybe there
Speaker 2: was just something that came to mind that made you
Speaker 2: think about your mom and you felt compelled to call in.
Speaker 2: That's why we wanted to hear from you. Let's first
Speaker 2: hear from Kathy in Anaheim. Kathy, how are you tonight?
Speaker 1: Good mo?
Speaker 4: Thank you for doing this.
Speaker 3: Absolutely.
Speaker 4: My mom's been gone ten years now and I miss
Speaker 4: her terribly. She was a little Italian American woman, the
Speaker 4: only member of her family born here, and so I
Speaker 4: got a very rich heritage from that, especially you know,
Speaker 4: her parents left a life of affluence to get away
Speaker 4: from Mussolini and I've been dealing for the last couple
Speaker 4: of years with cancer, and I know my mom would
Speaker 4: be hollering at me to take care of myself and
Speaker 4: hollering at everybody to help me out. Yeah, and I
Speaker 4: was really missing her. And one night I had a
Speaker 4: dream where I was back in the childhood of my
Speaker 4: kitchen childhood, and I could smell her homemade pasta sauce
Speaker 4: with sweet Italian sausage, and it felt so comforting, because
Speaker 4: you know, nobody can do a home cooked meal like
Speaker 4: your mom.
Speaker 3: Am I right, Oh, you're not wrong.
Speaker 2: In fact, I was going to ask you about any
Speaker 2: particular dish that she would make or that you miss
Speaker 2: and you beat me to it. There is something about
Speaker 2: Mom's cooking, and it's more than just the dish. It's
Speaker 2: about the love that's connected to the dish and the
Speaker 2: memories connected to the love, and also those meals. I
Speaker 2: completely understand, and I am so thankful that you called
Speaker 2: in tonight, Catherine, because you set the tone and you
Speaker 2: understand completely about the importance of Mom. Even though she's
Speaker 2: unfortunately no longer with you, she still remains inside of you.
Speaker 3: Is that fair to say?
Speaker 4: I think that's very fair. And my mom was a
Speaker 4: practical person who would say, use your common sense, don't
Speaker 4: do stupid stuff, make good choices. It was just, you know,
Speaker 4: real basic.
Speaker 2: Like that, and it stuck with you for life, didn't it.
Speaker 4: It has You know the phrase someone could talk to
Speaker 4: you like a Dutch uncle. I've heard my mom could
Speaker 4: do that with anybody. She could give anybody advice. If
Speaker 4: you screwed up, she'd tell you, but then you knew
Speaker 4: she still loved you.
Speaker 3: Mm hmmm hm.
Speaker 2: Did you pass Did you pass any of this advice
Speaker 2: onto your children or other extended family members?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I told my kids you make good choices. If you
Speaker 4: make good choices, you'll have probably have a good life,
Speaker 4: and that if you want things like a family, an education,
Speaker 4: all of that, start making those good choices now.
Speaker 3: Kathy, thank you for telling us about your mom.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry that Mother's Day can be difficult for many
Speaker 2: people just like you. You have these wonderful memories, but
Speaker 2: there's also there's a great sense of loss still connected
Speaker 2: to those memories. I completely understand, and I wish you
Speaker 2: a wonderful Mother's Day because you are a mother, and
Speaker 2: I also hopefully you have a peaceful Mother's Day, even
Speaker 2: though you may miss your own mother.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Molly. You have good evening too. Happy Mother's
Speaker 4: Day to your mom.
Speaker 2: Happy Mother's Day. She's listening right now. Thank you so much, Kathy.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Valentina in Cabazon, Valentina.
Speaker 6: How are you Hi, I'm doing good.
Speaker 7: How are you?
Speaker 3: I'm doing well.
Speaker 2: I'm glad that you could call in tonight and share
Speaker 2: some memories of your mom. Or let me ask is
Speaker 2: your mom still with us?
Speaker 8: She is, She is still with us, and she's a KFI.
Speaker 3: Listener, outstanding, outstanding.
Speaker 2: Tell us something about your mom, maybe some sage advice
Speaker 2: that she gave.
Speaker 9: You, you know what.
Speaker 8: Before I get into advice, I just want to say
Speaker 8: when I was in high school, we'd be driving to
Speaker 8: school every morning and we would listen to KFI. And
Speaker 8: now that I'm in my thirties, I now listen to
Speaker 8: KFI because of her, and we follow all of the
Speaker 8: all of the shows that you guys produced, and it's
Speaker 8: the first thing I put on in the morning on
Speaker 8: the way to the gym. And so I thought it
Speaker 8: was really special that you guys were doing this because
Speaker 8: I wanted to call and give a shout out to
Speaker 8: my mom and her name is Terry, and she has
Speaker 8: been just an incredible person in my life, always so
Speaker 8: supportive and always helping people, no matter what stage of
Speaker 8: life she's been through.
Speaker 2: Is there any particular advice that she gave you long
Speaker 2: ago that you still remember and live by today.
Speaker 8: So one of her advice is not a life advice,
Speaker 8: but it's actually just something that we do because we
Speaker 8: live in a Hispanic Mexican household, is to not walk
Speaker 8: around barefoot without socks. And it's just a Mexican thing.
Speaker 8: She feels like, you will get sick or you'll catch
Speaker 8: a cold without socks if your feet are on the
Speaker 8: bear tile floor.
Speaker 2: Did you carry that to your Are you a mother yourself?
Speaker 1: I am?
Speaker 3: And what do you tell your kids?
Speaker 6: So I do try to remind them, you know, they
Speaker 6: need to put sauce on their feet, but they but
Speaker 6: they are feral children and with crocs, with wearing crocs
Speaker 6: these days, you know, it's pretty difficult. But my kids
Speaker 6: love to ground themselves, as they say, in dirt, so
Speaker 6: it's hard to get them to.
Speaker 10: Keep talks on.
Speaker 2: Valentina, you brought a smile and a chuckle to my face.
Speaker 3: I love it.
Speaker 2: Once again, these lessons that we get from our mothers.
Speaker 2: They stay with us for life. We most likely passed
Speaker 2: them on to our kids as well. We probably hated
Speaker 2: them growing up, and now we swear by them as
Speaker 2: parents ourselves.
Speaker 3: Thank you for calling in tonight, Valentina.
Speaker 8: Thank you so much for having me.
Speaker 3: Have a good night, Have a great night.
Speaker 2: It's Later with mo Kelly. We want to continue with
Speaker 2: your calls. We'd asked you to call it ad eight
Speaker 2: hundred and five to zero one KFI. We want to
Speaker 2: hear about your mothers, whether they're still with us or not.
Speaker 2: Maybe there's some great advice, Maybe there was a great
Speaker 2: something that she passed along to you that you hold
Speaker 2: dear even now many years later. Maybe you've passed it
Speaker 2: on to your children as well. So we want to
Speaker 2: hear about your mother's, maybe that mother figure in your life.
Speaker 2: Eight hundred and five two zero one five three four.
Speaker 2: We're doing this the rest of the hour as we
Speaker 2: pay homage and also celebrate the mothers to all of us.
Speaker 1: You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
Speaker 1: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2: It's Later with Mo Kelly, and we're live on YouTube.
Speaker 2: We're live on Instagram and we're listening to you right
Speaker 2: now as we talk about your mother's your memories, maybe
Speaker 2: recipes that your mom had passed down. Maybe there was
Speaker 2: some wonderful advice that she gave you. And maybe it
Speaker 2: wasn't your mother, it was just a mother figure. Could
Speaker 2: be a step mom, could have been a counselor could
Speaker 2: have been someone in your church, someone who guided you,
Speaker 2: someone who helped you, someone maybe who even rebuked you
Speaker 2: and punished you on some level, but made sure you
Speaker 2: stayed on the street and narrow. And that's why we
Speaker 2: had opened up the phones, because we wanted to hear
Speaker 2: from you talk about your mother's on this Mother's Day weekend.
Speaker 2: And now our three we'll have named that movie called Classic.
Speaker 2: Of course, nothing but Mother's Day movies. Let's go back
Speaker 2: to the phones. Let's talk to Michael in Lake Forest. Michael,
Speaker 2: thank you for calling in this evening. Tell me about
Speaker 2: your mother.
Speaker 5: Hey, bro, thank you so.
Speaker 11: Much for having me on the program this evening. A
Speaker 11: I just want to give a shout out to my mom, Shelley.
Speaker 11: She is a very very faithful KFI listener. We grew
Speaker 11: up I'm thirty years old. We grew up listening to
Speaker 11: KFI and I just have to say my mom is
Speaker 11: the most brave and courageous woman I think I've ever met.
Speaker 11: She spent you know, I have an identical twin brother,
Speaker 11: and she raised two twins and my older sister and I,
Speaker 11: and she was a waitress for over twenty years, and
Speaker 11: she would work at night and she would be a
Speaker 11: student teacher volunteer at our school during the day. And
Speaker 11: when I was eighteen, I joined the Marine Corps and
Speaker 11: she signed on the dotted line. And it was my
Speaker 11: dad who was hesitant on me joining the military, but
Speaker 11: my mom was like, yes, do this.
Speaker 5: I'm totally supporting you.
Speaker 3: And she was just so.
Speaker 11: Courageous, and she really just wanted to foster that independent
Speaker 11: spirit and just you know, we can do anything to you,
Speaker 11: said our mind too. So she signed that dotted line.
Speaker 11: And I actually moved back to California about eight months
Speaker 11: ago just because I recently received a OCD diagnosis and
Speaker 11: she basically nursed me back to health. I was twenty
Speaker 11: five pounds underweight and going through a very intense mental
Speaker 11: health battle. And she's been working with me the whole time,
Speaker 11: encouraging me to take the medication, and she's been on
Speaker 11: my care team and then nothing but a churedly this
Speaker 11: whole entire time. And I can say I probably would
Speaker 11: beat that without her. So I just want to give
Speaker 11: a shout out to you, Mom.
Speaker 5: Love you.
Speaker 2: Let me just say this, Michael, first, thank you for
Speaker 2: your service and all that you've done for our country.
Speaker 3: That's very important to once to acknowledge that.
Speaker 2: And also when you say that you are only thirty
Speaker 2: years and oh, that you've been listening to KFI like
Speaker 2: all your life, what was that like growing up and
Speaker 2: having CAFI on all the time. And I'm quite sure
Speaker 2: you probably were not into it when you were a
Speaker 2: young kid.
Speaker 5: Were you. No, we were not.
Speaker 11: You know, my mom would be doing her makeup in
Speaker 11: the morning, we'd walk.
Speaker 10: Into her room, but we could just hear.
Speaker 11: Kfive going off in the background, and that just continued
Speaker 11: to go on every morning, every night. It would just
Speaker 11: be on and it was just like a part of
Speaker 11: the family.
Speaker 2: Well, Michael, you have really I think filled my spirit
Speaker 2: and the spirit of everyone listening. Hopefully your health is
Speaker 2: much better now than what you were telling us of
Speaker 2: what you were going through. But like all of us
Speaker 2: when we're sick, there's nothing better than the care of Mom.
Speaker 11: That's right, Amen. And you know I'll just say this,
Speaker 11: some sage advice that she's given me recently in this
Speaker 11: battle has been you have all the tools that you need,
Speaker 11: and you know, she's just been that cheerleader that I
Speaker 11: can do hard things. And so I love you Mom.
Speaker 3: Amen to that.
Speaker 2: Michael, have a great Mother's Day weekend, and hopefully we'll
Speaker 2: get to hear from you again in the future.
Speaker 11: All right, sounds good.
Speaker 5: Thank Je.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Rebecca in del mar Rebecca, thank you
Speaker 2: for holding Tell me about your mom or the mother
Speaker 2: figure in your life.
Speaker 12: Hi, So there's not a day goes by that I
Speaker 12: just missed my mom so much her. I do anything
Speaker 12: just to get like a hug, just to hear her
Speaker 12: voice again. She passed away, and about the year I graduated,
Speaker 12: I went back to school for my masters at USC.
Speaker 12: It was a battle, and I regret not visiting her
Speaker 12: as much. She lived about an hour away from me. Ironically,
Speaker 12: she is resting at the near mar Cemetery, which is
Speaker 12: like not even two miles from where I live. So
Speaker 12: when I'm off the freeway, I'm like, Hi, Mom, I'll
Speaker 12: talk to her. I miss her.
Speaker 9: Green Enchiladas.
Speaker 12: I miss her jokes. When I was in college, she
Speaker 12: would have the key to my apartment and come over
Speaker 12: and she would kind of like get upset, saying, I
Speaker 12: can't believe that you don't make your bed in the morning.
Speaker 12: And I'm like, mom, I'm a busy college student. And
Speaker 12: she said, all you're doing is inviting the devil to
Speaker 12: sleep with you.
Speaker 3: And one day I said.
Speaker 12: Well maybe, I said, well maybe. One day I said,
Speaker 12: well maybe I do want the devil to sleep with me.
Speaker 3: Oh, I know that didn't go over well.
Speaker 12: So I miss her a lot. I know she's resting peacefully,
Speaker 12: and she's very proud of me and my kids. And
Speaker 12: she's a great example, just like the previous caller. She
Speaker 12: volunteered a lot, a huge advocate. She was also a
Speaker 12: foster parent at one point, raised seven kids on her own.
Speaker 12: And I thank you so much for doing this mo
Speaker 12: for all of us. I appreciate it. And tomorrow it's
Speaker 12: actually Mexican Mother's Day. It's always on the tenth, no
Speaker 12: matter what day it falls on, so we're blessed to
Speaker 12: have those two celebrations.
Speaker 2: Rebecca, before I let you go, I have to ask you,
Speaker 2: is there anything that your mom told you or reprimanded
Speaker 2: you fourth that you reprimand or expect of your kids
Speaker 2: now beyond maybe making your bed.
Speaker 12: Oh boy, I can't really remember right now, but she
Speaker 12: was when she would discipline. My parents were not great
Speaker 12: at all that, like the say you're grounded, and then
Speaker 12: they forget about it. Because there are so many of
Speaker 12: us in the household, they would forget about which one
Speaker 12: is disciplined. And I'm the youngest, so I kind of
Speaker 12: got like.
Speaker 9: The better end of the deal.
Speaker 12: But you know what, there's one thing she did that
Speaker 12: will never forget. She waited in line twelve hours and
Speaker 12: then went to work to cook at a restaurant right
Speaker 12: after staying in line for twelve hours for Duran Duran
Speaker 12: tickets remember back on Yes, Yes, and then they would
Speaker 12: give out the stupid wristbands. It was crazy, It was
Speaker 12: I cannot believe she did. And I was only in
Speaker 12: eighth grade at the time, and she didn't complain at all.
Speaker 12: She would just talk to everyone in line. Yeah, So
Speaker 12: I that just those little things that she did. It
Speaker 12: was just incredible, and I do the same thing for
Speaker 12: my daughter, like the Taylor Swift tickets or kicking carry. Yeah,
Speaker 12: we do we do those things. Thank you so much
Speaker 12: again though I appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, Rebecca, thank you for those anecdotes. I hope you
Speaker 2: have a wonderful Mother's Day in your own right. Thank
Speaker 2: you so much for calling in to I'd have a
Speaker 2: wonderful Mother's Day weekend, and hopefully we get to hear
Speaker 2: from you again in the future.
Speaker 12: Yes, thank you everyone.

Speaker 2: we're still live on YouTube if you want to see
Speaker 2: what the show looks like, especially on occasion like this,
Speaker 2: we're live on Instagram. But it's not about me, It's
Speaker 2: about you. It's about your stories, your memories of your
Speaker 2: mother's or mothers, of mother figures in your lives. Maybe
Speaker 2: there was some great advice that she gave you a
Speaker 2: great recipe, or just maybe you already even have fond
Speaker 2: memories of your mother, but she still made an impact
Speaker 2: on you. She maybe is no longer with us, but
Speaker 2: she might be the guide for how you raised your children,
Speaker 2: and maybe you passed on some of her wisdom or
Speaker 2: recipes or some of her discipline to your children. That's
Speaker 2: why we opened up the phones. We wanted to hear
Speaker 2: from you. Eight hundred five two zero one five three four.

Speaker 2: honor and remember all of our mothers and mother figures
Speaker 2: in our lives. Let's talk to Sean in Sherman Oaks, Shawn,

Speaker 10: Three and a half years.
Speaker 3: How long has your mom been gone?
Speaker 5: Ten?
Speaker 10: She died a Turkey day.
Speaker 3: What do you usually think about this?
Speaker 10: This is a hard man.
Speaker 3: It's all right.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know what. Me and my ex girlfriend used
Speaker 10: to call my mom when we had like a question.
Speaker 10: She was so smart. I'm smart, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 10: But man, my mom was so so smart. She cot
Speaker 10: his answer or something on the whip of the dime.
Speaker 10: I missed my mom.
Speaker 2: What do you think your mom would say right now
Speaker 2: if she were here, would she say, clean up your house?
Speaker 5: Would she say, I'm a virgo?
Speaker 10: I'm a virgo? My house was spotless.
Speaker 3: Was she very strict?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 10: She was strict, but lenient, you know. I mean I
Speaker 10: grew up in the seventies. You know, pot was everywhere.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 10: It's just like, but you know, I just miss mom.
Speaker 3: There's nothing wrong with that. You need not apologize.
Speaker 2: What do you think up do you talk to your
Speaker 2: brother during moments like this during Mother's Day weekend?
Speaker 10: I just my brother just left about forty five an
Speaker 10: hour and a half ago.
Speaker 3: So you're still very close with them.
Speaker 10: Oh yeah, he only lives around the corner. I live
Speaker 10: in Sherman Oaks and he lives in Sara Karita.
Speaker 2: That's close enough. That's close enough. What do you think
Speaker 2: he'll do this Mother's Day weekend? Even though it may
Speaker 2: be a painful memory that she's gone, But is there
Speaker 2: anything that you may do in remembrance of her this Sunday?
Speaker 10: No, what I'm gonna do is. I'm gonna give Pam
Speaker 10: a thing of carnations mm hm, and then all this
Speaker 10: prayer to God.
Speaker 3: Nothing wrong with prayer. Prayer changes things.
Speaker 10: That's the one thing my mom gave me is to believe.
Speaker 10: And I still do believe.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 3: Look, weeping may endure but for a night, but joy
Speaker 3: comes in the morning. Remember that.
Speaker 10: There. I just I just miss my mom.
Speaker 3: That's all right, that's all right.
Speaker 10: And I got extra moms and they're they're they're just
Speaker 10: they're they're not moms. You know what I'm saying. You know,
Speaker 10: you understand me.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, they're they're not replacements for them but for your mother.
Speaker 2: But they don't have to be. It's okay. That's why
Speaker 2: your mom was so very special because there is no
Speaker 2: one like her and no one.
Speaker 3: Will be like her.
Speaker 10: Thank you for that.
Speaker 2: Hey, Sean, I gotta go, but I do want you
Speaker 2: to have a special weekend. Even though your mother may
Speaker 2: not be with you, it is clear that she is
Speaker 2: still very much with you.
Speaker 3: And I don't know.
Speaker 2: I do this every single year, and and there are
Speaker 2: a lot of people who call in who don't have
Speaker 2: the types of memories that you have, who don't have
Speaker 2: the type of connection that you have with your mother,
Speaker 2: and their mothers might even still be here. So I
Speaker 2: would consider you, my word, blessed to be able to
Speaker 2: have such positive memories of your mom, and the also
Speaker 2: someone that you can share those with who also knew
Speaker 2: her in your brother. So she may be gone, but
Speaker 2: she's clearly still with you.
Speaker 10: Thank you, Sean.
Speaker 3: Will you call us again sometime? Yeah, I didn't have
Speaker 3: a good weekend, as best you.
Speaker 10: Can right, will have a great weekend.

Speaker 2: about Mom. We've been asking about the stories in which
Speaker 2: you want to share about the special nature of your mom.
Speaker 2: Maybe there was some great advice, Maybe there was a
Speaker 2: time she disciplined you and you use that to discipline
Speaker 2: your children now.
Speaker 3: And maybe you don't have fond memories of your mother.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to lie to you and say that
Speaker 2: everyone had a fantastic relationship with their mom or mother figure.
Speaker 3: That would not be true.
Speaker 2: But I definitely wanted to hear from you about your
Speaker 2: mom and why, in one way or another she is
Speaker 2: or was.
Speaker 3: So very special.
Speaker 2: And so we put the call out to you, and
Speaker 2: you've responded, and there is no wrong emotion to feel.
Speaker 2: There is no wrong emotion to feel because Mother's Day
Speaker 2: is for many of us a very emotionable, emotional time.
Speaker 2: With that in mind, let's talk to Jerry in West Covina.

Speaker 2: you would know the answer to that, because she's made
Speaker 2: such an indelible mark on you. And I'm sorry that
Speaker 2: she's gone, But like so many people that we've heard
Speaker 2: from tonight and who I are watching in the chat
Speaker 2: on our YouTube stream, she will never be forgotten and
Speaker 2: she will always serve as a very important person in
Speaker 2: your life presently, even though she may be gone, she
Speaker 2: is still of the utmost importance. And also, as I
Speaker 2: said before to someone else, I want to thank you
Speaker 2: for your service, because if not for how you were raised,
Speaker 2: you may not have been willing to serve.
Speaker 3: So I thank you for that.
Speaker 2: And Jerry, I have to go at this point, but
Speaker 2: I want you to remember that even though your mother
Speaker 2: is gone. She clearly is still impacting your life in
Speaker 2: a very positive way.
Speaker 3: Am I wrong?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know what. I just give me one word, teach,
Speaker 13: I don't go Chili. Okay, teach, I don't go Chile.
Speaker 13: And oh no, who else knows it in there?
Speaker 7: Oh my, she taught me how to make it, and
Speaker 7: I know how to make it. But I know that's
Speaker 7: because you know it's really bad for your heart and
Speaker 7: all that other stuff. But you'll need it once here.
Speaker 7: You'll need it once here.
Speaker 3: Hey, Jerry, I got a rush. But thank you for calling.
Speaker 7: Oh that's who I understand, and I think you know
Speaker 7: all and everybody.
Speaker 5: Hey, thank you guys. You guys all have a happy
Speaker 5: Mother's Day for your mom's.
Speaker 2: Happy Mother's Day for you as well. Keep your spirits
Speaker 2: and thoughts on mom this weekend.
Speaker 3: I will all right, be well. Jerry.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Kelly in Long Beach. Kelly, tell us
Speaker 2: about your mom.
Speaker 9: My grandmother was my mother.
Speaker 4: I had.
Speaker 9: A bad situation of abuse and but not to go
Speaker 9: into any of that. But I only know a mother's
Speaker 9: love because my grandmother just she did everything for me.
Speaker 9: She was always there for me. She taught me how
Speaker 9: to cook, to be kind of people. She made the
Speaker 9: best pies in the world. She taught me how to
Speaker 9: do all the cooking of the things that I do
Speaker 9: make now, I could never make one Grandma's pies. Pies
Speaker 9: are a difficult thing to make. Those crests, Oh there,
Speaker 9: they're hard, but got it. They were just so good.
Speaker 9: And she's always with me. I missed her so much
Speaker 9: that she's always with me. She'd worried about a lot
Speaker 9: to you know. She'd always worried if I was going
Speaker 9: somewhere or going to swimming somewhere. She was always afraid.
Speaker 9: You know, they're being accidents, worried something.
Speaker 3: And grandmother's worried. That's what they do.
Speaker 9: And you know what I turned out. I'm a worrier now,
Speaker 9: I think, even wren than she was. And she used
Speaker 9: to drive me nuts right right.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 9: I would go somewhere and I'd say, okay, I'll be
Speaker 9: back at nine o'clock. And i'd actually get in early,
Speaker 9: say maybe eight forty five, and she was already outside,
Speaker 9: pacing up and downside walk and was like, oh man.
Speaker 5: But.
Speaker 9: She passed it on to me.
Speaker 12: Yes, yes, she passed on a lot of good things.
Speaker 9: Now, and oh we used to listen to the radio
Speaker 9: all night, talk radio, so I do that right now.
Speaker 9: I have KFI on.
Speaker 5: My radio just.
Speaker 9: Goes all day and all night. And I think I
Speaker 9: enjoyed that so much with my grandma. We you know,
Speaker 9: laying in bed at eleven or twelve o'clock and the
Speaker 9: talk radio would be on, and my grandfather was on
Speaker 9: the far departments. So when I wasn't with her, she
Speaker 9: you know, would have our radio, and you guys keep
Speaker 9: me company because I'm pretty much alone now. So I
Speaker 9: I just think the shows are fantastic. They're so enjoyable.
Speaker 9: They really are.
Speaker 3: Kelly, thank you for the compliment.
Speaker 2: But I'm more impressed by your grandmother how she was
Speaker 2: able to instill some things in you, some skills she
Speaker 2: gave to you, some recipes that she gave to you.
Speaker 3: And it sounds like Kelly in Long Beach she turned
Speaker 3: out okay.
Speaker 9: Oh well, that's sutatable. I think she's her coffin. Sometime
Speaker 9: she'd have to bless her heart. But everything always turned
Speaker 9: out all right.
Speaker 2: I can say from what I can where I'm sitting,
Speaker 2: it turned out all right, Kelly, and I want you
Speaker 2: to have as good a Mother's day weekend as you
Speaker 2: can reflect on your grandmother and all the beautiful things
Speaker 2: that she's done for you in your life.
Speaker 3: And hopefully we get to talk again in the future.
Speaker 9: That'd be great. I really enjoy your show. Well, thank
Speaker 9: you so much.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Kelly.
Speaker 2: I really do appreciate that, because as far as I'm concerned,
Speaker 2: it's all about family.
Speaker 3: We're here to laugh together.
