Kelly & Michael: How Young is Too Young for a Cell Phone?

Kelly & Michael: Kids with Cell Phones

How young is too young for a kid to have a cell phone? Kelly said any age. Michael’s twins have been bugging him for the last two or three years and they’re only nine now. Kelly told him not to do it. Michael got them a flip phone, but now they want an iPhone. They have an iPad and an iPod already though. Kelly called it a gateway phone.

60% of US parents offer cell phones to their 10- and 11 year-old kids. 80% of kids between 12 and 17 have a cell phone. That’s twice as much as two years ago. Michael’s kids want it because they’re friends have it. He said that when he was in school he saw his friends right there already, plus you shouldn’t use your phone in class. Sprint has a wego device that’s marketing cell phones to kids as young as five. That’s way too young. Kids should know how to interact with people and shouldn’t be on phones in school.

Kelly & Michael: Texting and Driving

Kelly brought up texting and driving. We already know that it’s bad, it can lead to death, but we’re learning that it’s even worse. A woman was impaled while texting and driving when she hit a pole. At least nobody else was hurt.

Kelly & Michael: Tough Mudder

They talked about Tough Mudder again and talked about their teams, which are Kelly, Michael, and Gelman, which Kelly thought did not get enough applause, and Nick & Knight and one of the founders of Tough Mudder, Alex Patterson.

They have a professional athlete, Michael, on their team though. But Michael said you wouldn’t want a retired doctor to operate on you. They didn’t think that Nick & Knight would accept their challenge; they’re even interrupting their tour for it.

They plugged I Heart Nick Carter, which premieres on September 10 2014 on VH1. It’s a new reality show, and he’s freshly married. Nick & Knight kick off their tour on September 15 2014 in Nashville, Tennessee. They couldn’t believe they said yes.

Time to Smile Travel Trivia: Liev Schreiber

The Time to Smile Travel Trivia dancer was Latisha Carrion from New York, New York. Kelly called her adorable and the tiniest woman ever. The contestant was Lorriane Gottschling from Ashburn, Virginia. Michael didn’t like the jersey she was wearing in her picture. She played for The St. James’s Club in Morgan Bay. It’s valued at $8,500. The question was:

What instrument did Liev Schreiber say he played in his high school band?

She couldn’t remember. She said trombone, but it was the bass clarinet. Kelly said it sounds terrible even when you play it correctly, but she said she was just kidding. She and number three for her three kids got a subscription to Netflix and a streaming device.
