We got a brand new full hour for you with a mass speaker confession.

A guy found a new way to make male friends, which I'm all about male friendship, but this is,

this is sketchy.

Yeah, this is extra.

Yeah, and a brand new awkward Tuesday coming up, but first, we always love to open with you.

You're the highlight of our life.

Yes.

What comment do you like today? Today's highlight is Adela creative. Hala, not sure if you're reading these comments, but thank you for keeping me company during my working hours over here in Bulgaria. Oh, that's okay. So he wasn't saying Ola. No, no. Yeah. I had to double check that. I was like, wait a second. You know. Bulgaria, high on my visit list. Oh, top five. Top five travel. I want to go. Brooke may move. She's becoming such good friends with Bulgarians. Wait, you'll hear why tomorrow in our what's on your mind. Yeah. But today is your brand new full hour that starts right now.

This year, the penny officially went away.

That's right. All right, Penny.

After 238 glorious years, they went ahead and killed it.

But now there's something else that might be ending soon.

What?

And Brooke, your mom is not going to like this. Oh my God, am I going to die? It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. She loves James. Jake, you're safe, I think. But I know my mom's definitely not going to like it either. It better not be the shot caller because this is the favorite part. She loves this part of the show. Everything is downhill after this for my mom.

Sounds right. No, but there is a chance that by this time next year, paper checks will no longer be accepted. Oh, no. I accidentally found my checkbook this weekend. My mom is like, she's a controller. She doesn't really use paper checks anymore.

Oh, I'm just saying, you know, do not underestimate Arlene Fox.

Okay. Yes, a youthful 80 years old. I love that.

Last year, more than 90% of surveyed consumers said they would rather use anything else than a paper check to pay their bills.

Although 6% of Americans still do it. The only reason I have used my checkbook in the last six months is just for the routing information on the bottom. Yeah. You know what I mean? You're writing an eject? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's a lot easier than looking it up on your phone. But the government's already stopped sending out paper checks for federal benefits. It's all done digitally now. Plus check fraud has gone way up in recent years.

Brooke, I'm sure you don't know anything about that. I am not smart enough financially to commit

fraud. Yeah. She's not a lot of work. There's a reason I had to order a new checkbook and I can't remember.

It's like, it's a closet for something. And I'm like, who uses checks anymore? I literally never own a checkbook in my life. Yeah. I don't see the use for it anymore. Well, it is possible. Paper checks are officially on their way out. But I know the 90 and over crowd listening is saying, not so fast. I like writing my checks at Albertsons.
