Minnesota. Goodbye. Let's start with Dazy Good Morning, my favorite morning crew.
I listened to the podcast on iHeartRadio, so I'm not always super updated
on what to email in about. But a few days ago, Jenny talked
about not wanting to stay at her mom's house over Christmas, and it got
me thinking. I was born and raised in China. I moved to Minnesota
when I was nineteen. I'm now thirty five. My parents still live in
China. My mom was supposed to come visit in twenty twenty when my first
son was born, but that was canceled COVID blah blah blah. Since then,
I've had another boy. In twenty twenty two, all my parents could
do was FaceTime and saw their grand babies on the screen. Finally, this
year they were able to come visit and stay with us the entire summer.
I was very happy because they can finally spend some person in person time with
their grand baby. Summers coming gone. They flew back to China last month.
I took them to the airport and was able to get a companion ticket
to accompany them to their gate. I stayed until they boarded their flight.
I was sobbing uncontrollably. That's got to be home. After that, I
went home and I cried even more in the bedroom they stayed in. I
have said goodbye to them many times. Oh, you're getting me choked up,
but this time it really hit me hard. I think it's because we
were all getting older, and I really feel sorry for my parents for missing
out so much on their grandkids' lives. My husband and I are already thinking
of making this a yearly thing for my parents to come and stay with us
every summer. I apologize for the long email, but let's not forget a
wise man who once said, I'm taking your kids to skill. Thank you,
Daisy, staff writer for the Dave Ryan Show in Lakeville. I love
that that was so random, What a great story. I mean, it
is really hard to say goodbye when we cry when we say goodbye to Carson
and Chasing Beth, because it's going to be months until we see them again.
Yeah, so we always get choked up. Because I told you a
couple of months ago, or a couple of weeks ago, when Carson came
home from Asia on his tour, and then he met ICs in Las Vegas,
and then we said goodbye with no firm place to see him again.
And I told Susan on the way home from the airport in Las Vegas,
I said, we've got to come to terms with the fact that he doesn't
live at home anymore. Yeah, And she's like, stop it, and
she was crying in the car and I felt bad. But it's true because
little by little, he doesn't live at our house anymore, and it's a
realization. So those goodbyes can be really hard. Yeah. So I mean,
especially when your parents are getting older. If you're thirty five, I
think she said. I'm not sure. I kind of missed that, but
yeah, she's thirty five, so parents are probably in their sixties or so.
Thank you, Daisy, appreciate that one. Next one, hold on,
I'm scrolling down. I've done no pre reading. Oh I love that
this this hour, so let me check here. Here's one from Todd catching
up on a couple of podcasts. I'm on the episode where you're talking about
disclosing that somebody has died in the home that you purchased. Have you ever
thought about hotels? I worked at a hotel and people would die in the
rooms all the time when they were traveling and all you do is change the
bed sheets and put the next customer in there the next day. Just want
to enlighten you on that thought. The next time you stay at a hotel
that's from Todd in Ontario, Canada. Todd, watch for your sticker in
the mail. And people do die in hotel rooms. I know that.
I don't want to get more. But one of the most popular places for
people to end their lives sadly is in a hotel room because then it doesn't
devalue the house or bring any bad memories for their relatives, so they go
to a hotel room. Yeah, never think about that. I never think
about the people that were banging on the bed before I was there. I
never think of anybody who was like being gross in the tub. I never
think about that. To me, it's like it's almost as if I'm the
first person that's ever been in that hotel room. That's how I feel,
except for I have stayed at some pretty dumpy, one or two star hotel
rooms. And when I said those places, it kind of comes to mine
because the cleanliness isn't there. It's definitely not fancy, and so that's when
I feel like I think about it. But outside of that, no,
I go to a nice Airbnb. I'm like, okay, cool, this
is the first time they've ever had anyone stay in their Airbnb. This is
wonderful. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, because it's kind of like when I
go in the bathroom stall at work, I don't think about all the guys
that have been in that stall like earlier that morning. To me, my
mentally feel like I'm the first person who's ever been in there because I don't
want to think about it all. Right, next one and it says hello
Dart Liquors. I took my twenty two year old daughter out to dinner last
night and I was telling her stories I've heard on the Dave Ryan Show.
She said, you're still listening to them? Is Dave still on? I
said, yeah, I've been listening since I was in high school, like
when Dave started. I told her several stories about Drake. They're the same
age and have a lot in common. Lol. She said, you're gonna
have to start, She said, she's gonna start listening again. You will
now have eight listening love from staff writer Patty Ka Score eight listeners Net.
We're up to eight now, So but what if we lose one, What
if one of them says this show is garbage. I can't listen anymore,
so respound to happen. You're right, well, let's just stick with seven.
It's a good average. Next so one, it says on Instagram.
I keep getting reels that people can make some extra money with side hustles that
are worked from home situations. Do you know of anybody that has tried one
of these? And if they work? It seems like you can either review
things on Amazon or transcribe and make money per word you type, example,
transcribe me dot com, rev dot com, or scribby dot com. I
know Jenny keeps in walks out dogs to make extra money. Wondering if there's
any real and legal work from home jobs that actually pay. Love you,
guys, I missfallon as it's not routine to listen to the afternoon show.
My fault, not anybody else's. I suck. Everybody is kicking ass and
dart licking hard these days, and that is well. I won't say her
name, but Jenny, yes, tell me about the bark app. Is
that what it is? Rover, Rover and Wegg I do mostly Rover because
heads up like Wag takes a pretty big chunk of the percentage of what you're
paying. Rover takes less, so I usually do Rover. So I do
do that, and it's it's been very simple. But also we don't have
a dog anymore, so it's kind of like our way to still have a
dog around. So it's like, I mean, we've had some difficult dogs,
so it's not like the easiest side hustle sometimes, But in terms of
what you're seeing on social media to do all those things, I mean,
I'm on that side hustle side of TikTok too, and I feel like a
lot of them are kind of scams. They're kind of like your MLM things,
and but it's just disguised differently now because social media makes everything look pretty
and they glamorize things. But really a lot of that stuff is still am
I MLM the transcribing stuff that probably could be a legit thing, but like,
how long does that actually take to do to make money? And how
do you get accepted into stuff like that, because I've probably seen something like
that before too, But yeah, I don't know. I'm sure some of
that stuff is legit. You just gotta find the good stuff. I don't
blame people for trying to find a high side hustle. I don't. I'm
not a big fan of door dash because door Dash Carson did it. And
first of all, you're putting mileage on your car. You are buying gas,
and I think at the end of the day, if you work a
long day, Carson would make maybe one hundred and fifty dollars on a long
day of door dash, like all day, like lunchtime into ten o'clock at
night. Yeah, but you're using probably close to a tank of gas.
So now your one hundred and fifty dollars turns into one hundred dollars. And
then you got wear and tear, which nobody adds up. But you know,
every hundred miles or a thousand miles you drive your car, you're getting
closer to that required oil change and breaks and all that stuff. Next email
is kind of a fun one. This one says, hello, morning show,
just here to give you some content for the podcast. If you could
have listen to this, if you could have five liquids dispense out of your
finger tips on one hand, what would they be? Your answers could be
for survival mode or just for fun. For example, mine would be water,
doctor pepper, Triple Berry, Breezer, Bubbler, gasoline, and Chick
fil A sauce. Wow. I can't wait to hear what your answers are.
This is so interesting. Love the show. Keep up the great work.
Staff writer Franny from New Richmond, Wisconsin. You are brilliant. Gasoline
is one that I would not have thought of, but so I'm gonna go.
I'm gonna say gasoline, first, diet, Pepsi, hot coffee,
the hot mustard sauce for McDonald's, and lube, Jenny, lube, Really
that is not liquid enough. I feel like to be able to work for
this scenario. Well, it's my fingers. It's my lube, Jenny.
I mean think about it. Think of all the times that you needed loube
you didn't have any. Can I find all this? It's my fingers,
it's my lube. Can I tell you call it whatever you want to?
Yeah? Okay, what about you, Jenny? What's your five fingers?
I would do water because I'm boring, but also you gotta stay hydrated.
I would do doctor Pepper. It's like probably one of the few sodas I
still drink every once in a while. Also gasoline, because you know I'm
cheap and I want to get that free gasoline. Gas is expensive. That's
the best one. I feel like I'm copying you, though, iced coffee.
And then my last one, can I make it a cocktail. I'm
gonna do an espresso martini. You know that's I forgot that I should put
vodka on there, So maybe I'd go back and I would replace lube with
vodka. Okay, but it's funny because every time I drink vodka, I
need lube. My goodness, not true. Okay, thank you. That
was a that was a perfect example of a Minnesota goodbye content email. So
thank you very much. Let's do one that says I'm thought of you when
this happened. Want to see if it's ever happened to you, Let's find
out. I can never say I've had this issue before, not sure if
any of you guys have, But when my dad told me this today,
I immediately thought of you guys, and I had to share love you all.
By the way, my husband and I are moving blah blah blah.
Long story, something came up in our financial planning. We weren't planning on
medical wise, and it threw a wrench in the entire plans. Well,
now what I had to call Dad and said, I need a loan.
He said, I'll think about it. What's the worst you can do?
But ask I'll let you know. Of course. Half an hour later,
my stepmom calls back and says they have the cash. They're on their way
to the bank to put the money in, and they'll call when they're there
to wire the funds. Great. Well, fifteen minutes later, Dad calls
back and says it's gonna be a bit before we can send the money.
Okay. Bank won't take the money right now because they said it's too smelly
and it's a little moldy. I guess I have to go home and wash
it off. It gets smelly and kind of moldy sitting there in my safe.
When you buy a safety and you keep money, you got to buy
a little thing that absorbs moisture because safes are built with Yeah. Yeah,
I didn't know this either. I bought a safe years ago, and the
walls, the bank, the ball, the safe walls are kind of saturated
with moisture, so if there's a fire, it'll help protect the inside.
Fun fact about safe. So safe walls are insulated with fireproof whatever, but
they're also moist inside the walls, and the moisture will seep into the safe.
You didn't know that, did you. No, I had no idea.
So you gotta buy a little thing that absorbs the moisture in the safe
so it doesn't make your money moldy. Anyway, some of it still has
smoke smell from the fire. They don't like that, so it'll be a
little bit. Let me know, no problem, dad, Okay, yep.
Never can I say I've actually had to wash my money because it sat
around and got moldy or old smelling. What the actual f okay side note,
my mom and dad did have a fire at their house six or seven
years ago, and it was a total loss in their house, and they're
safe was there and they had some money in it, so I know that
was some of it. Two years later, my dad's garage burned down,
total loss and another safe in it, which was a lot of money.
But I know he had taken some of that money to the bank. But
I didn't know a bank refused money because it's stunk. It's money, isn't
money money. I would take it either way. I'm just saying thoughts.
Question mark question mark question mark from D. I don't really have any thoughts
on that, except I wouldn't think that a bank would mind that the money
smells. But maybe banks have a policy against moldy, smelly money. I
don't know. Yeah, maybe I have no idea. I've never bought brought
a bunch of money sitting around to a bank before, so I've never been
to the river ever washed like a dollar bill, or you put it it's
in your pants, pocket or something, and you wash it and it comes
out like shiny, squeaky clean. Oh, I've never had that happen.
I don't think, but I've definitely washed money before. I have because I
remember. But you know, money's made mostly not out of paper, but
out of fibers, so money will wash if you you know, I wouldn't
want to take a couple of hundred dollars and throw it in the washing machine,
but I guess you can maybe put it in a pocket and wash it,
or maybe put it like wrapped up in I don't know something, yeah,
and zip it shut and wash it. I don't know. Interesting,
No, thank you, Alyssa writes in I heard you guys talking about Turett's
on the radio this morning, and I wanted to resubmit my application to become
your resident Turetts having listener. I wrote in a while ago about my experience
with it, but I'd be happy to come in and talk about what it's
like. Or maybe you could pull up my email that I sent a couple
of months ago. I think it got buried because it was never read,
but please feel free to reach out. I got diagnosed when I was twenty
six, but I've been showing ticks since I was around five. Thanks Alyssa.
Thanks for the offer, Alyssa. I don't think I'm going to take
you up on that one, because I think that we can just pass along
the information just as easily by telling it rather than an interview. But I
appreciate that. The reason it came up is because I was on Instagram and
there's a woman probably sixteen to twenty four years old, it's hard to tell,
and she has serious turetts where she'll swear and got GTT and then she'll
swear, and then she'll talk normally for fifteen seconds, and then she'll say,
my dog has gonarrhea, which is actually one of her lines. And
you have a fucking little WIENI, you have a fucking little wini. You
have a fucking little WIENI got got goga. And I'm not trying to mock
her by saying it, but I'm trying to give you an example. And
people were saying it's fake. Nobody has tourettes like that, but other people
say it's like autism. There's this endo the spectrum and that into the spectrum.
So right, and I think that's kind of really all we needed to
know about it. Some people have just ticks, right. I know somebody
whose son has what they think is a very mild version and he blinks his
eyes really hard here and there and he can't avoid it, right, Yeah,
I mean I think is that considered if you have like kind of a
little tick like that where you're doing eyeblinking, that's considered tourettes. I think
it's undiagnosed. And I'm really not sure. Let's see what we got here.
If there's another one, and all right, sure, let's do this
one. It says good morning my favorite radio people. I was driving listening
to KTWB, that Selena Gomez song, came on. The title was single
soon. Well, I immediately thought of the bit where you play a song
and think the lyrics for one thing, but there another. I always thought
she was singing I'll be sinister, sinister, sinister, Okay. The end
of the week, a lady wrote in about signs from people who have passed
on. Well, my boyfriend was suddenly Uh, my boyfriend was suddenly killed
at the age of thirty one, four days before Christmas. And when he
had died for a long time, I was really really cold. So for
the first function that I had to go to to be around people, I
took an extremely hot shower and asked for a sign that it was going to
be okay, that is going to be able to get through it. And
when I got out of the extremely hot, long shower, the mirror was
completely clear with no fog on it. And the other one that was really
crazy that stand out stands out was when I was working in a hair salon.
I was shampooing to client's hair, nobody else was around, and a
penny fell from above me into the shampoo bowl. Wow. They say pennies
on the ground or a sign that your loved one is like reaching out to
you. You heard that before. I've heard that, I've heard you mentioned
that before, but I had to be reminded because for a second I was
like, does that mean something? I forget. That is says have a
great day, your non dart licking staff writer. You know, dart licking
ain't for everybody, Christy, So thank you, appreciate that one, and
that is going to do it for the Minnesota goodbye. Thanks for sending in
your emails, and we'll do tomorrow on the mope. I'm redundant on the
Minnesota. Goodbye, have a good day.
