WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:02.879
We're gonna start off with we got
an email from a doctor who is a

2
00:00:02.919 --> 00:00:06.519
surgeon who said that they will remove
Jenny's skin tag because Jenny's got a skin

3
00:00:06.519 --> 00:00:12.160
tag. And we're going to read
that on the radio tomorrow and see if

4
00:00:12.199 --> 00:00:17.640
we can get Would you be willing
to have a real genuine surgeon remove your

5
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:22.160
skin tag? Absolutely, if she's
doing it for free. Okay, good,

6
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:25.359
I mean, I hopefully because Jenny. Even the doctor said, I

7
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:28.280
know, Jenny's cheap, and that's
one of the reasons why very cheap.

8
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:31.079
It's under your right arm, and
it's the size of a pumpkin seed.

9
00:00:31.120 --> 00:00:37.479
How oh gosh, it's smaller than
that tictac tops tiktag. Okay, not

10
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:42.520
too bad. Here we go,
Rain writes in Jenny in the Morning Zoo

11
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:46.479
featuring Dave Ha ha Ha. A
month or two ago, Jenny recommended the

12
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:50.280
podcast Too Hot Takes, which is
hosted by a Minnesota woman who moved to

13
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:53.520
la Each episode is about an hour
and a half and it's been on since

14
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:57.520
twenty twenty one. You remember this, Jenny, Yes, So they're local

15
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:00.039
and it's such a weird tie in. I met them at the Minnesota State

16
00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:04.719
Fair two or three summers ago,
and actually they grew up listening I think.

17
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:10.439
And the woman is now engaged to
a guy who she bought a cameo

18
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:15.760
of You Dave, wishing the guy
a happy birthday one year because he is

19
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:19.439
a huge fan of the show.
So we actually kind of have a tie

20
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:22.280
to Two Hot Takes on top of
the fact that they're from Minnesota, they

21
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:25.120
like know of the show, and
I've met them before. That is super

22
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:27.680
cool. I'm really flattered by that. Anyway, I binged on about half

23
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:32.519
of the podcast. At this point, she mentioned how obsessed her fiance is

24
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:37.040
with Daveep. He comes on the
show frequently and will quote Dave like it's

25
00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:38.560
better to have it and not need
it than to need it and not have

26
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:44.159
it Dave Ryan, and it makes
me chuckle every time. So he comes

27
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.640
on their podcast and quotes me.
Yep. So it's her podcast, and

28
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:52.400
she has like kind of the same
rotating people on because they read crazy wild

29
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:55.480
stories from Reddit and then they do
their hot takes. That's why it's called

30
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:59.640
two Hot Takes. So her fiance
is on quite often with her as like

31
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:02.120
the other person with their hot take. Yeah, and it must be a

32
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:05.840
decently big podcast. That's huge.
It's actually blown up quite a bit.

33
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:08.800
She started it during COVID time and
it is one of those podcasts that took

34
00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:13.280
off and they're doing super well.
And I believe she used to do something

35
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:15.400
else full time and then the podcast
said so well, so I'm pretty sure

36
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:20.240
that's like her full time gig now
and then wow, fiance. I might

37
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.960
get this wrong, but he does
something really cool for like Disney, like

38
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:29.360
some kind of animation stuff. I'm
not even entirely positive, but they live

39
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:31.120
out in La. I got to
look for it really quick, too.

40
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:35.479
Hot takes. Is that what it's
called? Yep, hot there it is.

41
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:39.159
It pops up right away, Two
hot takes there it is Morgan ab

42
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:46.560
sure sound And you can tell how
many views they've got and that type of

43
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:52.360
thing by the number of reviews.
Okay, they've got five, seven hundred

44
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:55.680
and eight reviews. Yeah that's a
lot. That's a shit ton of reviews.

45
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:00.840
So wow, that is really really
cool. I'm looking to see if

46
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:05.800
her so there's Morgan anyway, it's
called two hot takes. I wonder how

47
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:07.800
many of view do we? I
don't think we look up on the podcast

48
00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:13.159
app our the Minnesota Goodbye. Can
we can look up how many listens The

49
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:17.240
thing is is I think the way
it works is it accumulates, so it'll

50
00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:22.039
say how many listens it's gotten over
the course of the podcast. I'm not

51
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:24.439
entirely sure, but I'll look right
now, all right. While you're doing

52
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:34.000
that, I am scrolling through the
Minnesota Goodbye podcasts, and so we average

53
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:38.439
about five thousand downloads a day.
Really, and that's a lot. It

54
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:43.400
is. Wow. I didn't know
that. And we've got millions of downloads.

55
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:46.400
But that's over the course of the
entire life of the podcast. Ye.

56
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:51.319
So, but yeah, it's about
five thousand a day day. Yeah.

57
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:53.800
Wow, it blows my mind,
Jenny, I really thought it was

58
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:58.319
like a few hundred or a few
thousand, like a thousand. Wow.

59
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:00.680
Okay, here we go. She
goes on to say, or their name

60
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.560
is Rain. I don't know what
their gender is. I have an observation,

61
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.759
Dave gets sillier when Drake is on
the air with him. I wonder

62
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:11.439
if it's because Drake is Carson's age
and it's a bonding thing. Any thoughts.

63
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:13.840
I don't know. Drake is fun
to be silly with. Yeah,

64
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:15.600
you're fun to be silly with two. But I think when we all get

65
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:19.279
together it's like three brats all trying
to like one up each other, so

66
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:25.120
completely unrelated. But I have a
random question. Whatever happened to Cassie?

67
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:29.360
I want to say she was on
the air after Filthy Foley and before Lena.

68
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:31.639
Was it just a fever dream?
Lol? Anyway, I love y'all,

69
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:34.079
wouldn't be mad if I got a
stick her. I will send you

70
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:40.000
one. Cassie is you know?
I don't want to insult Cassie. She

71
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:44.000
didn't work out. She was on
the show for a short time. Delightful

72
00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:46.639
person, good person, and I
knew she was a good person. We

73
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:48.759
hired her when Corey left, and
we knew we were taking a bit of

74
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:55.120
a chance. But she was very
delightful and wonderful, and I knew that

75
00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:59.000
she was a good person because you
just could tell. But I remember one

76
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:02.800
time we were doing a show from
Los Angeles and she said, well,

77
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:05.399
I'm going to call us a cab
to the airport before the days of Uber

78
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:10.959
And she did not ask me to
do it for her, which most people

79
00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:13.680
in her situation would have assumed,
Well, it's your show, you call

80
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:15.600
the cab. So she called the
cab. She looked it up on the

81
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:18.240
internet with the cab number, and
she's like, yeah, cab is on

82
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:20.759
its way. I gotta taken care
of it. I thought you didn't have

83
00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:24.399
to do that. You're a good
person. She was a good person.

84
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:27.639
She just didn't work out. Yeah, probably not just the best fit.

85
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:30.240
And she was before Lena. Then
right, what it was? Okay,

86
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:32.680
got it? Yeah. I hope
she's doing well. I don't know what

87
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:38.439
she's up to these days. Next
one, I'd like to stay anonymous.

88
00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:41.800
Catching up on the Minnesota Goodbye and
came across a listener who wrote about how

89
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.759
their grandma passed away and was looking
for a sign for comfort. I have

90
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.800
a story of my own I'd like
to share. My father recently passed away

91
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:55.839
earlier this year. We didn't have
the traditional father and son relationship. Long

92
00:05:55.839 --> 00:06:00.319
story short. Ever since the service, I've never gone back to visit him

93
00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:03.680
where we laid him to rest.
A few weeks ago, my wife convinced

94
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:06.800
me to visit, and when I
was there, I spoke my heart out

95
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:09.839
of how much regret I had.
Oh my god, I'm going to make

96
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:13.120
me tear up. I should have
called him more, told him I love

97
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:15.759
him more, and how much I
miss him, stuff like that. I

98
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.079
didn't think much of it after,
but later that night I saw my dad

99
00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:21.959
in my dream. He was telling
me, oh my god, Jenny,

100
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:25.360
I'm gonna lose it. He was
telling me how happy he was that I

101
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:29.040
decided to visit him. He was
telling me how much he misses us kids,

102
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:31.680
and how much he loves and wishes
that he had been a more loving

103
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:35.800
father. I woke up crying uncontrollably. I took that as a sign that

104
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:40.800
his spirit is always with us,
and I heard what he said, Sorry

105
00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:43.759
for bringing the house down, your
fellow dart lick. Okay, thank you.

106
00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:46.040
You made me smile a little bit. If you guys have any staff

107
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.000
writer stickers, I would love to
have one. Will you absolutely deserve one.

108
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:54.319
If you make Dave cry, you
get a stickery wow searing up a

109
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:59.600
teeny bed here, Okay, thank
you. Next one wrote in a few

110
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:02.040
weeks ago, asking who Bailey was. I was in Spain for two weeks

111
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:04.439
and I missed who she was.
I haven't had time to go back and

112
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:08.000
listen to what I missed from the
show, but I have caught up on

113
00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:13.279
mg Oh Minnesota goodbye. I'm not
sure if my ewos missed her somehow I

114
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:16.240
missed it. Okay, so let's
talk about Bailey for a minute. It's

115
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:20.160
hard to describe why she's on the
show. But Bailey is somebody that I

116
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:25.879
know that does improv and she's in
theater. And I know that Bailey's funny

117
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:28.399
on the radio because we've had her
on before to talk about her woes of

118
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:33.519
dating boys, and she was actually
very funny. And then when we need

119
00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:38.160
somebody when Jenny's out, so it's
not just two bros hanging out, Me

120
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:42.040
and Drake, we want a woman, the female presence. So I said,

121
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:46.000
well, Bailey is kind of a
natural because she's done improv and she's

122
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:48.720
done theater. And I go back
to that's what made Lena so good is

123
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:53.959
because she did improv and she did
theater, and people that do that are

124
00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:58.480
kind of naturals because they get that. A lot of our job isn't just

125
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:00.839
like, you know, say whatever
your comes to your mind. You've got

126
00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:03.160
to perform. You got to edit
yourself a little bit. You've got to

127
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:07.839
listen while the other person's talking,
you've got to respond to what they say.

128
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.920
And she in improv was a natural
for that. So that's why a

129
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:13.920
lot of the time, when we
have somebody on who's like, you should

130
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:18.279
have me on because I'm the funniest
one in our friend group. Well,

131
00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:22.120
that doesn't always work on the radio. Yeah, you might be great at

132
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:24.399
telling a story. I have certain
friends that are so so funny, but

133
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:28.000
if they were to have to like
converse back and forth with other people to

134
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:31.360
make it entertaining, it might not
go as great. There is a skill

135
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:37.240
set for what we do, and
it seems really natural because it comes really

136
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:41.600
natural to us. And I don't
even mind having a conversation with myself.

137
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:43.919
I mean a lot of the time, I'll you know, if you're in

138
00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:46.679
the bathroom or Drake is busy or
whatever, I will get on and talk

139
00:08:48.279 --> 00:08:52.240
just by myself. And I'm perfectly
comfortable having a conversation with myself. I

140
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:56.440
don't answer myself, but I can
talk for a long time with just me.

141
00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:01.399
But that is not something that that's
kind of a skill set. She

142
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:05.120
goes on to say, Jenny was
talking about her skin tag in her armpits.

143
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:07.480
Same girl. I wonder if it
comes with age anyway. I've got

144
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:11.320
recurring skin tags in my armpits as
well. Two or three times a year.

145
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:13.639
I use applesider vinegar to remove them
at home, pain free and not

146
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:20.200
going to the doctor. Soaked down
cotton in applesider vinegar, placed it on

147
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:22.799
the skin tag for thirty minutes daily, twice a day. Gone after seven

148
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.879
or nine days, doesn't hurt or
bleed. Google says the acidity of the

149
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:33.279
apple sider vinegar breaks down the tissue, causing it to fall off. Oo.

150
00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:37.919
I will just say not to get
into more details of my skin tag,

151
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:41.120
because I think we have just really
I know, I go, mine

152
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:45.240
is something I've had my whole life, and there's like a portion to me

153
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:48.840
that is questioning. Actually if it
could be like a mole mixed with a

154
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:52.039
skin tag, so there might be
a situation there where it's very different than

155
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:54.720
just like a skin tag that appeared
out of nowhere. Because my dad has

156
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:58.480
a lot of skin tags and a
genetic thing, he's developed them throughout the

157
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:01.639
years. But this is something I've
had my entire life. Okay, so

158
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:05.879
not an age related thing. No, Okay, gotcha. I'd like to

159
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.559
and they go on really interesting.
I'd like to add that I hope at

160
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:15.120
this day and age with the comfortability
and of sexuality and non shaming that most

161
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:18.240
women should know size does not matter. Because we talked about the guy with

162
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:22.039
the micro penis the other day,
and I said, I hate when people

163
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:24.360
make fun of guys with a micro
penis, because what a fucking awful thing

164
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.039
to go through life with knowing that
it's like the last thing that you can

165
00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:31.440
laugh at. Yeah, his dick
is real small. Ha ha ha ha

166
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.480
ha, And I thought, what
about the poor guy that's got the small

167
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.159
penis? How awful that is.
She says, size does not matter.

168
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:41.080
There are fingers, sex toys and
tongues for a reason. Am I right?

169
00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:46.720
She goes on to ask, and
I think I want to save this

170
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:50.559
for Naughty Tuesday. Okay, because
somebody asked the other day. They said,

171
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:54.559
can you when you do the Minnesota
Goodbye, can you save the dirty

172
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:56.960
stuff for later in the show.
I can't make that promise, but I

173
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:00.679
think they listen with their kids,
yeah, and they don't want to hear

174
00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:03.679
the dirty stuff. So maybe when
we ever were doing something kind of naughty

175
00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:05.759
we preface it with a little warning. Yeah, maybe maybe we do,

176
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:11.399
but let's save this for Naughty Tuesday. It asks this question. Have you

177
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:16.279
ever had a sexual partner with a
unique or interesting fetish or someone who asks

178
00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:24.279
you to do something weird during sex? Maybeka, Maybe I was the one

179
00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:28.320
that asked him to do something weird. Anyway, your bff and staff writer

180
00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:33.200
from Shattek, Wisconsin can't wait for
the sticker. Is it sit attack or

181
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:37.320
shit it? How do you say
attack? I knew two guys from there

182
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:39.639
that I went to the U of
M with Okay, I might be wrong,

183
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:43.159
though, I'm gonna pin that to
the top, so we'll get to

184
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:46.279
it next week. This one says, dang it forgot to sign off with

185
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:50.440
the staff writer. Could I pretty
please have a sticker? Love you the

186
00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:52.519
most? And that is from staff
writer Mary Anne and Blaine. Your sticker

187
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:56.399
is on its way. I sat
at the kitchen counter last night and hand

188
00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:01.840
addressed another fifteen or twenty staff sticker
the stickers to send out and here is

189
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:07.240
her email. Uh, this is
for the girl who is struggling with trying

190
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:09.120
to figure out if she wants to
have another child when her step son is

191
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:13.159
fifteen years old already. Do you
remember this email? Do you? It

192
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.480
was probably last week? But yeah, yep, I had my first child

193
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:18.320
at nineteen, never planned to have
anymore. Welp, as life does,

194
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:22.919
it throws you a curveball. I
got pregnant when my first son was twelve

195
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:26.279
and immediately embraced it. Planned to
have another one, immediately got the diapers,

196
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:30.120
bottles, bullshit, getting up in
the middle of the night, all

197
00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:33.399
the gross stuff out of the way, all at once. I did not

198
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:35.200
want to have two kids so far
apart. So my oldest son is now

199
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.320
thirty four, just about his first
house. I was able to help with

200
00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:41.600
that. My second child is my
only daughter, she's twenty two. My

201
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:45.879
third child is his second son.
He is twenty second and third or only

202
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:50.799
nineteen months apart. Girl, The
days go by slow and the years go

203
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:54.120
by fast. There is nothing I'm
more grateful for than having my children.

204
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:56.799
Not only do they keep you young. I was at the State Fair this

205
00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:01.320
year with my daughter, niece and
nephew, and I came up and imitated

206
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:03.159
Drake and my best shaggy voice,
and Dave played it on the air Monday

207
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:07.320
and said, this lady came up
to imitate Drake. Maybe she was thirty

208
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.759
four or so, thirty five or
so. I immediately texted in saying I'm

209
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:16.080
fifty three. I one hundred percent
Mary Anne, absolutely remember you because that

210
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:20.240
cracked me up. Well. We
also at first we were like, is

211
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:24.000
she kind of weird? Like we
didn't realize she was doing the impression of

212
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:26.639
Drake. And then I was like
and then I said, wait a second,

213
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:28.559
is that your impression of Drake?
She's like yeah. I was like,

214
00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:30.840
OK, I got it. I'll
never forget you. You were so

215
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:33.519
funny and it took such balls to
walk up to three people and do that

216
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:37.559
impression. That was so funny.
Having children fills your heart with the love

217
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:39.600
you never knew you had. When
you're young and have a child, the

218
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:43.080
struggle is real. When you have
your feet on the ground, got some

219
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:45.919
dough you can share, it's a
whole different world. I'm now a grandma

220
00:13:45.960 --> 00:13:48.159
of three. We are empty nesters. I love when my kids come home

221
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:50.840
and immediately look in my fridge.
I want to give them all I have.

222
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.679
I don't regret one fucking second.
Just for reference, I got married

223
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:58.120
when I was nineteen. Divorced that
guy, great guy, but not for

224
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.519
me. My second husband, who
was a POS and had my second and

225
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:05.200
third with him. Now on my
third marriage, been together twenty years,

226
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:09.919
we got six kids collectively, three
for him, three for me. Like

227
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.279
Nike said, just do it.
Love you, Dave, Jenny Drake more

228
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:18.360
than you know, xoxo, Mary
Anne. Just do it. I'm going

229
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:22.120
to live my life by that.
Now. Just do it, Just do

230
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:24.759
it, whatever, just do it, Just do it. And I totally

231
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:28.240
respect that some people just don't want
kids. We did a story yesterday about

232
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:33.120
celebrities that don't want kids, and
they talked about why they don't want kids.

233
00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:35.399
I will tell you when you say
the girls guys go by slow.

234
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:39.399
The days go by slow, but
the years go by fast. I am

235
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:50.080
just flabbergasted sometimes that not that long
ago I had a little boy, and

236
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:56.360
not terribly long ago I was changing
diapers, and now those years have flown

237
00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:58.960
by. They do seem like a
blur, But while you're in there,

238
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.320
they do not fly by. The
days go by slow. But then I

239
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:09.159
find myself now looking around an empty
house and looking in Carson's bedroom. And

240
00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:11.679
I don't go in Carson's bedroom and
sit on his bed and cry. I'm

241
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:15.159
not that way. But I look
in his bedroom once in a while and

242
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.440
I'm like, I can't believe he
is grown and moved out, and he

243
00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:22.960
is not just college moved out or
they come home during the summer. He

244
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:26.799
is moved out, and he'll come
and visit at Thanksgiving and Christmas. But

245
00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:30.720
he doesn't live at home anymore.
And I said that to Susan a couple

246
00:15:30.720 --> 00:15:31.720
of weeks ago, and she started
to cry, and she's like, stop

247
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:33.759
it, and I'm like, well, he doesn't. He doesn't live at

248
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:37.879
home anymore. But it is true. It is flabbergasting to look around my

249
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:43.200
house and go, they're all grown
up. How did that happen? How

250
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:46.879
do they all grow up? It's
crazy? Thank Mary Anne. And I

251
00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:50.519
think I have one more. Oh
yeah, that is from the surgeon that

252
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:54.240
wants to take off your skin tag. Oh okay, so we'll move on

253
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.440
to the next one. Please don't
say my name. This is a little

254
00:15:58.440 --> 00:16:02.120
bit deeper, so we'll get into
this one. I got married September of

255
00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:04.159
last year. For my wedding,
my dad gave a speech. I know

256
00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:07.480
people always say speeches are the worst
part of the wedding, but they've always

257
00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:10.960
been a favorite of mine. I
love hearing the stories they have to share,

258
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:14.360
and it's always so touching. My
dad is not a public speaker.

259
00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:17.840
He gave a speech about ten years
ago for my sister's wedding, his stepdaughter,

260
00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:19.200
and it was really sweet. He
did a great job for mine.

261
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:22.039
I knew he was nervous, but
I was excited to hear what he had

262
00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:26.639
to say because he basically raised me
by himself. I have a complicated history

263
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.039
and three moms, all of which
were there. I asked him to keep

264
00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:34.679
them all out of the speech.
That was my one request for the speech.

265
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:38.639
He started off well talking about how
I was a sweet little girl,

266
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:42.279
but quickly shifted to how I was
a nightmare in high school and was only

267
00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:48.879
managing me manageable because of my quote
forever mom aka my stepmom and now his

268
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:53.080
wife. We've never used the term
forever mom for her, and I was

269
00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:56.200
kind of shocked that he chose to
say this, especially as I asked him

270
00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:03.039
not to. We also found out
that most of my behavior as a child

271
00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:07.720
was due to undiagnosed mental illness that
now requires multiple medications, so hearing him

272
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:11.319
talk about that at that point in
my life seemed unfair and just deployed to

273
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:15.319
praise his wife. That's what I
was thinking. I'm gonna guess that the

274
00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:19.680
wife probably got together and said you
need to mention me. I deserve to

275
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:22.680
be mentioned. I'm going to guess
there was something like that in there.

276
00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:27.880
The rest of the speech was a
full page Bible passage that was really just

277
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:32.039
a lecture because I'm not religious like
my parents. A verse or two is

278
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:34.559
fine, but it went on for
literally five minutes. I have a pretty

279
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:38.119
decent relationship with my dad, but
I'm absolutely heartbroken by the speech he gave

280
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:41.920
over a year ago, and I
think about it almost daily. Do I

281
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:45.119
bring it up to him how disappointed
I am in his speech? Or do

282
00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:47.400
I just let it go? And
if I do, tell him, how

283
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:48.680
do I do it? Sorry,
it's long, no need for a sticker.

284
00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:56.920
Just looking for advice. My first
instinct is to say no, don't

285
00:17:56.920 --> 00:17:59.920
say anything. But if it heals
your heart, then maybe you need to.

286
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:03.039
That's how I thought too. I
probably wouldn't bring it up, but

287
00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:06.759
man, if it's something that's weighing
on you, how long ago did she

288
00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:10.160
say? This was a year?
Yeah, it might be something that you

289
00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:11.880
have to bring up eventually so that
you can just get the conversation over with.

290
00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:15.279
But you have to be prepared for
it to not go like in your

291
00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:19.160
favor, like if he defends your
step mom or something and is like,

292
00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:22.319
well I did this because of this, and then you take that personally even

293
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:26.039
more than what the speech was.
You know, I absolutely agree. I

294
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:30.000
got time for one more. Liz, a regular supporter of the show,

295
00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:33.960
listening to the Minnesota Goodbye from today, and the person that corrected you about

296
00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:38.480
the pronunciation of you g H came
off a little pretentious and clearly has never

297
00:18:38.559 --> 00:18:42.759
seen Charlie Brown. I pronounced it
ug when I say it, because that's

298
00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:48.119
how the Peanuts characters say it.
She said it's pronounced uugh, and I've

299
00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:52.119
always said ug. So she includes
a clip and I'm not sure that I'll

300
