<v Speaker 1>Jerry, Katie, and Josh. Fix 100.

<v Speaker 2>You believe we're already talking about the annual leaf peeping

<v Speaker 2>trips that people are planning?

<v Speaker 1>Just prepped right up on us.

<v Speaker 2>Colorado's unusual hot and dry year has stressed the aspen trees.

<v Speaker 2>If you go up there, all the aspen trees are smoking.

<v Speaker 2>They're taking their anxiety meds. They're saying that the stress

<v Speaker 2>could cause the leaves to change earlier than normal. Um,

<v Speaker 2>because more than three quarters of Colorado is experiencing severe

<v Speaker 2>drought right now. So they're saying just in a couple

<v Speaker 2>of weeks here, September 10th is when the leaves could

<v Speaker 2>start changing your best spots to go see those changes.

<v Speaker 2>Steamboat Cameron pass rabbit ears pass. And then just a

<v Speaker 2>few days later, September 13th, boy, they really got it

<v Speaker 2>narrowed down. They say you could start to see the

<v Speaker 2>changes in Rocky mountain national park, peak to peak highway, uh,

<v Speaker 2>The mountains west of Denver and Boulder.

<v Speaker 3>So the shift is going to start happening.

<v Speaker 1>Well, it makes sense.

<v Speaker 3>It's that time.

<v Speaker 1>It makes total sense because all the produce came a

<v Speaker 1>couple weeks early with the corn, the peaches, the cherries.

<v Speaker 1>All of it came early this year because of the weather.

<v Speaker 1>So it makes sense that they would change early as well.

<v Speaker 2>It makes sense, too, because like Walmart and Costco and

<v Speaker 2>Sam's Club, they already have the Halloween candy out.

<v Speaker 3>So the trees were like, well, I guess it's time.

<v Speaker 1>You wet! No.

<v Speaker 4>Whoop, whoop. We're not basic biatches.

<v Speaker 1>No, we don't raise our hands for that.

<v Speaker 5>Whoop, whoop.

<v Speaker 1>We don't want to be that, Jeremy.

<v Speaker 2>With your Lululemon pants and your Kate Spade bags and

<v Speaker 2>your Kia Telluride.

<v Speaker 3>Where you at?

<v Speaker 1>Whoop, whoop.

<v Speaker 3>I got a story for you.

<v Speaker 2>Starbucks is officially declaring its fall because the fall menu

<v Speaker 2>launches today, including the pumpkin spice latte.

<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

<v Speaker 1>I just want to celebrate.

<v Speaker 5>I just want to celebrate.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

<v Speaker 2>There you go. You can roll up and carpool today

<v Speaker 2>with your PSL.

<v Speaker 3>You excited, Katie?

<v Speaker 4>They need to just make that. You okay over there?

<v Speaker 3>Did I shock you?

<v Speaker 4>You're staring at me.

<v Speaker 1>Well, no, you didn't shock me. I just like when

<v Speaker 1>we talk about this specific drink, it kind of gets

<v Speaker 1>me going.

<v Speaker 3>It makes me disgusted because they're gross.

<v Speaker 1>No, I love it. They're absolutely delicious.

<v Speaker 3>It's for the basics.

<v Speaker 1>And it is something that needs to be available year-round.

<v Speaker 1>The fact that I have to special order my pumpkin

<v Speaker 1>stuff on Amazon in March is amazing. Absolutely bananas. I

<v Speaker 1>want it all the time. So that's what, the fact

<v Speaker 1>that they make such a big deal about it, I'm like,

<v Speaker 1>I want to be able to roll in at any

<v Speaker 1>time and get my pumpkin fix.

<v Speaker 2>Last year, Katie's daughter stole a jug of the pumpkin

<v Speaker 2>puree from Starbucks and Katie had it in the fridge

<v Speaker 2>here for like six months.

<v Speaker 3>It was nasty. Yep, I did. Anyway, happy PSL day today. Okay,

<v Speaker 3>here we go. My Starbucks, but pumpkin.

<v Speaker 2>Pumpkin spice sucks, I don't.

<v Speaker 1>Want it in my coffee.

<v Speaker 5>Pumpkin spice latte.

<v Speaker 2>Tell me why there's gonna.

<v Speaker 3>Be a long line.

<v Speaker 5>Tell me why I'm gonna be here till night. Tell

<v Speaker 5>me why this thing is way too sugary. spice latte

<v Speaker 5>yeah they're going all in i mean they got the

<v Speaker 5>pumpkin spice cold brew the cream chai the frappuccino the

<v Speaker 5>iced pecan crunch latte with some pumpkin in it and

<v Speaker 5>the list goes on and on they've got a new

<v Speaker 5>shaken espresso with pumpkin in it a new pumpkin spice

<v Speaker 5>chai a pumpkin cream matcha good god uh they're.

<v Speaker 2>Also going heavy i kind of like this With banana

<v Speaker 2>this fall season.

<v Speaker 4>Yes.

<v Speaker 2>The iced banana latte and the iced banana bread chai.

<v Speaker 2>And then something they call the chider, which combines chai

<v Speaker 2>and apple cider..

<v Speaker 3>Flavors.

<v Speaker 4>So it's like apple cider and chai.

<v Speaker 1>Why do I love that name so much?

<v Speaker 3>Chider? Yeah.

<v Speaker 4>I would try that, I think.

<v Speaker 1>I would too.

<v Speaker 3>I'm all in on the banana stuff too. I like banana.

<v Speaker 2>Oh, speaking of, did you know it's banana split day

<v Speaker 2>today too?

<v Speaker 1>Is it really?

<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

<v Speaker 1>I love me a good banana split. Do you? I do.

<v Speaker 4>I was reading this and I'm like... Who the hell

<v Speaker 4>goes in and says, I'll take a banana split? I've

<v Speaker 4>never seen anybody in my life order a banana split.

<v Speaker 1>Bananas hate to see me coming. No, I love it.

<v Speaker 1>Because there's nothing else that puts banana in the ice cream.

<v Speaker 1>Unless you get a special shake that is like a

<v Speaker 1>banana monkey shake or something like that. That's the only

<v Speaker 1>time you're going to get banana with ice cream. Otherwise,

<v Speaker 1>it's really the only traditional dish that we offer banana in.

<v Speaker 1>In the ice cream it is.

<v Speaker 3>That's a funny way to put it. It's a traditional

<v Speaker 3>dish featuring banana.

<v Speaker 5>It is.

<v Speaker 1>It's got the pineapple and the red.

<v Speaker 3>Sauce and the chocolate.

<v Speaker 1>And again, the combination of it is so good. When

<v Speaker 1>I went over to Grand Junction this weekend, there's a

<v Speaker 1>little ice cream shop called Graf Dairy that I love.

<v Speaker 1>And they have like four different options of banana splits.

<v Speaker 1>I've never seen anyone over 10 order a banana split

<v Speaker 1>in my life. I love them so much. I do.

<v Speaker 3>You know what it is? It's the best combo. It's funny.

<v Speaker 2>Anyone over 10 and then anyone under like, 76 let's

<v Speaker 2>say because it's always children ordering it and then you

<v Speaker 2>go in and there's always like a little old man

<v Speaker 2>sitting at the booth in Dairy Queen with denim on

<v Speaker 2>denim denim shirt tucked into his denim pants and a

<v Speaker 2>trucker hat kind of sitting right there just resting on

<v Speaker 2>the top of his head making that banana split his

<v Speaker 2>biatch that's the only time I see people yes.

<v Speaker 1>His weekly treat he gets to go into the DQ.

<v Speaker 2>And he's like on a first name basis they're like

<v Speaker 2>her I'll take the regular.

<v Speaker 4>Making a double banana today. I'm feeling saucy.

<v Speaker 1>Two whole bananas. I need the potassium.

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, my doctor says I'm low on the potassium.

<v Speaker 2>Well, it's no secret that when you do a morning

<v Speaker 2>radio show, God, all of us on here, we don't.

<v Speaker 3>Sleep very well.

<v Speaker 2>But Katie's got a suggestion as to how we start

<v Speaker 2>sleeping better.

<v Speaker 4>I guess.

<v Speaker 1>Stop leaving your loops open, Jerr.

<v Speaker 3>Excuse me?

<v Speaker 4>My loops?

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the texts that you have ignored, the vacation supplies

<v Speaker 1>you still need to order, the hard conversations you've been avoiding. What?

<v Speaker 1>All of these things. Repeatedly putting off tasks because they

<v Speaker 1>feel too daunting may seem pretty harmless, right? It's not.

<v Speaker 1>It's not. And I love the way this story talked

<v Speaker 1>about a specific thing. For example, a hole in your

<v Speaker 1>jacket pocket. You realize that every time you put your

<v Speaker 1>keys or your phone in there, it drops. You neglecting

<v Speaker 1>to fix it when you put your keys in there

<v Speaker 1>and they drop. That is you thinking, oh, no, I

<v Speaker 1>need to fix my jacket pocket. You do that a lot.

<v Speaker 1>And then you're just thinking like if you were to

<v Speaker 1>just fix that.

<v Speaker 3>Is that what I'm thinking about before I go to bed?

<v Speaker 1>If you didn't fix it, then you wouldn't have to

<v Speaker 1>have fought it five different times. So that's what they're

<v Speaker 1>saying is even though you think. Thinking, a thought, is harmless.

<v Speaker 1>It uses your brain energy. It uses your brain activity,

<v Speaker 1>and that is something your brain can't use for something else.

<v Speaker 4>Side note, I lost my keys about four weeks ago.

<v Speaker 1>I know you did.

<v Speaker 3>They're still lost.

<v Speaker 1>I know you did.

<v Speaker 2>If anyone finds my keys, it's got a little Ariat

<v Speaker 2>leather tag on it from Ariat, the cowboy company.

<v Speaker 3>It's leather.

<v Speaker 4>It smells good, and there's a lot of keys attached

<v Speaker 4>to it.

<v Speaker 1>There you go.

<v Speaker 4>If anyone sees those keys anywhere, please reach out.

<v Speaker 3>Jeremy at Mix100.

<v Speaker 1>Com.

<v Speaker 3>You still have them.

<v Speaker 2>I haven't checked my mail in weeks.

<v Speaker 4>Anyway, closing the loops.

<v Speaker 1>Well, that's it. How many repetitive thoughts that you're just

<v Speaker 1>carrying around and how much space that's taking up in

<v Speaker 1>your brain. And here, this is where I fall guilty

<v Speaker 1>to it. I have a routine at night. that I

<v Speaker 1>do the same thing. I get my purse in my

<v Speaker 1>bedroom and in my purse are my car keys and

<v Speaker 1>the garage door opener. And I make sure, and my sunglasses,

<v Speaker 1>they are in there. So when I leave in the morning,

<v Speaker 1>everything's ready.

<v Speaker 3>That's smart.

<v Speaker 1>Right?

<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

<v Speaker 1>But there are times at night, if I don't do it,

<v Speaker 1>it'll keep me up. Like I will get out of

<v Speaker 1>bed to make sure these things are in my purse.

<v Speaker 1>Even though if I'm like, this ready to go to sleep.

<v Speaker 3>At least you know where your keys are.

<v Speaker 1>Energy and emotional fatigue. And if you're doing this over

<v Speaker 1>and over again, it is tiring you out. So by

<v Speaker 1>the end of the day, cooking dinner, you're exhausted because

<v Speaker 1>you thought about your last keys all day.

<v Speaker 4>All day, all day long, just tiring you out. I

<v Speaker 4>guess it's nice in theory.

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, it's not a theory.

<v Speaker 3>You can't accomplish.

<v Speaker 2>Everything every day, so you're always going to have something.

<v Speaker 2>You're always going to have a loop that's not closed.

<v Speaker 2>It's impossible to.

<v Speaker 1>Close all your loops.

<v Speaker 4>But if you can close it, you should.

<v Speaker 1>If you can close it, you should.

<v Speaker 3>So don't procrastinate.

<v Speaker 1>If it's a small task that you're just avoiding because

<v Speaker 1>you don't want to, they're saying doing it is way

<v Speaker 1>better for you than just continuing to procrastinate it.

<v Speaker 2>So if I go home and scoop dog poop today,

<v Speaker 2>I'm going to sleep like a baby tonight?

<v Speaker 1>Oh, yeah. Because if you think about scooping dog poop

<v Speaker 1>all day until 7 o'clock when you actually do it.

<v Speaker 1>I do, actually.

<v Speaker 3>It's a problem I have.

<v Speaker 1>That's what I mean. This rings true also in just worrying.

<v Speaker 1>I think about this all the time. I try really

<v Speaker 1>hard not to worry about something before it's happened because

<v Speaker 1>why worry about something twice? If you're going to worry

<v Speaker 1>about it when it happens, why continue to worry about

<v Speaker 1>it before it happens? What are you worrying about right now? Nothing.

<v Speaker 4>Not going to worry about it until it happens.

<v Speaker 3>Not a care in the world?

<v Speaker 5>Exactly.

<v Speaker 1>You're not worrying about anything? Like a duck. What? Until

<v Speaker 1>it happens. I'm not going to worry about it.

<v Speaker 4>You have no boy trouble right now?

<v Speaker 1>No.

<v Speaker 3>Nothing.

<v Speaker 1>No.

<v Speaker 3>That's why you don't have any worries.

<v Speaker 1>I know.

<v Speaker 4>I am so free.

<v Speaker 2>Katie's not sending nudes to anybody right now.

<v Speaker 1>Look at me go.
