00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:03.399
We talked the other day about how
if you are languishing in life, that

2
00:00:03.439 --> 00:00:05.360
one of the things you're going to
do is socialize more So, I went

3
00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:10.439
out played cribbage last night at Loose
Line Brewery and that was fun with my

4
00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:15.759
friend Melanie, and so we did
that. We played cribbage with Trivia and

5
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:19.320
shout out to the manager Tim who
came by to say hi, and also

6
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:23.399
Olivia who randomly said hi, and
also shout out to the three girls at

7
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:26.600
Lagos Tacos in Plymouth. I walked
in and I'm picking up my to go

8
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:30.120
order because I'm headed over to the
brewery with a got to go over order,

9
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:34.240
and I heard I saw three women
about thirty years old looking at me,

10
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:36.560
and I knew it's not because I'm
hot. They're looking at me because

11
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:38.719
one of them is like, oh, that must be Dave Ryan. But

12
00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:41.880
I didn't know for sure that's why
they were looking at me till I heard

13
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:45.119
one of them say KATIEWB. So
I said, I got my order and

14
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.399
I walked over and I said hi. I said, I heard somebody mention

15
00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:52.119
KATIEWB. So you know, I
sat and chatted for about a minute or

16
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:55.079
so. So it's just fun to
meet people that are out, you know

17
00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:57.439
what I mean, then randomly listen, you met so you were out doing

18
00:00:57.479 --> 00:01:00.399
the fashion show last night. Yeah, I did that. There was a

19
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:03.040
handful of people there who were fans
of the show, so I got to

20
00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:07.519
chat with some people, and yeah, it was super fun. I was

21
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.840
I think the funniest interaction I've had
recently. I was at Bunnies and someone

22
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:12.879
was getting up to go to the
bathroom and all of a sudden, they

23
00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:18.280
like screamed my name, and that's
fine, and then y yeah, and

24
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:19.719
then they were like, oh my
god, did they say weather girl Jenny

25
00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:23.400
or just Jenny's Jenny? And then
they gave me a hug right away and

26
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:27.239
stuff like that. But also,
someone did yell my name as I was

27
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:30.680
walking into the fashion show last night, so I was still like outside,

28
00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:34.879
and I thought it was someone like
for the show trying to get my attention

29
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.719
or something. And I turned and
I looked and I waved like I was

30
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:40.719
supposed to know who they were,
but I have no idea who that person

31
00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:42.680
was. So if you're listening right
now, I hope you know I was

32
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:47.159
waving and everything, but I was
like kind of probably gave a weird look

33
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:49.959
at one point because I was like, wait, who was that right?

34
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:53.239
So see us out somewhere. I
mean, definitely feel free to say hi,

35
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:57.719
and I always try. I've really
made it a point to spend more

36
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.560
time saying hi. So you say
hi to me, be prepared for a

37
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:06.959
conversation, yeah, because that's just
what I do. All right. Here

38
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:08.280
we go with Cesna. She is
a regular writer on the show, and

39
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:12.360
she said, Hey, guys,
heard you calling for more emails from me?

40
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.159
Laugh emoji. Anytime you mentioned my
name unexpectedly in the podcast, I

41
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:19.919
get so excited. I feel so
loved. I talked to my friends about

42
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:22.599
you guys a lot, and a
lot of my stories start with I heard

43
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:27.159
on the radio. They just don't
understand my love for radio. Though.

44
00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:30.000
I was hyped to see that photo
of you day with the John Jay and

45
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:32.159
Rich crew. That's a show that's
down in Phoenix. I was down there

46
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:36.919
on Monday in their studio. I've
been listening to them for about ten years

47
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:39.199
and it was through their subreddit that
I found out about your show. In

48
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:43.960
June of last year, you guys
gained a lot of John Jay and Rich

49
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.439
fans through one post on there I
also recruited some John Jery and Rich fans

50
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:52.639
over to you as well. Thank
you. Fun question for the room.

51
00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.439
Here we go. I work overnight
stalking shelves at a massive grocery store chain.

52
00:02:55.520 --> 00:03:00.240
Because of this, I have learned
about some products I would have ever

53
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:04.520
known existed. If you were trapped
in a grocery store all night with access

54
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:07.159
to the grills of and fryers,
assuming you know how to use them,

55
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.560
what dinner would you make yourself and
where would you sleep? She says,

56
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:15.400
I would make a rotisserie chicken so
I can eat it fresh before bagging.

57
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:19.120
As for sleep, I'd make myself
a bed and a fort out of that

58
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:23.000
soft toilet paper and tuck myself in
at the very back of the shelf so

59
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:29.039
it's dark. Love youa Sesna.
I've thought about being in a bed store

60
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:31.479
or a target where they have beds, and like sleeping in the bed overnight,

61
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:35.759
but I've never thought about getting out
the grills and the fryers and making

62
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:39.039
food. So I don't have an
answer for you. But I would get

63
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:45.120
into the freezer section and probably make
a lot of the frozen like pizza rolls,

64
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.719
egg rolls, chicken wings, garbage
junk food. Yeah, because when

65
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:52.319
I walk by that, I try
not to buy it, but that'd probably

66
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:53.680
be my temptation. Yeah, Oh
my gosh, I would go in.

67
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:57.800
I would go so hard on some
ice cream. Oh. But then I

68
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.759
would maybe, like, if we
have to grill something, make actual food.

69
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:02.240
I probably grow some broth, and
then I'd just make it a whole

70
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:06.159
like kind of campfire situation, like
camping situation. I'd build one of the

71
00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:12.080
tents, I'd find one of the
air mattresses, I'd find a sleeping bag,

72
00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:16.120
and just like have a little camping
site inside of Walmart or whatever it

73
00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:19.439
might be. I like that idea. I think that's a better idea than

74
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.000
Cessna's idea of unrolling a bunch of
rolls of Sharman and making a bed out

75
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:27.879
of it. Because you're gonna sweat, Cessna, and then the toilet paper

76
00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:30.000
is going to stick to you.
You're gonna get up, go to the

77
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:32.519
bathroom, We're gonna have toilet paper
squares all over your body. So I

78
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:39.360
don't like your plant. I like. Another regular listener, Andrew in Ohio

79
00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:43.439
contributes, I was listening to the
morning show. You were talking about underwhelming

80
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:47.240
places to visit and people talked about, you know, they didn't like Mount

81
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:51.240
Rushmore, or they didn't like Niagara
Falls, or they didn't like you started

82
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:56.199
with Old Faithful and you said Old
faith wol was terribly disappointing. Mm hmm.

83
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.120
I did that, and I'm trying
to think of the other ones.

84
00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:01.560
It was like Peace Italy. Yeah, the Pisa, the Tower Pisa,

85
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:05.279
Yeah, the Alamo or maybe I
made that up. I always want to

86
00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:09.839
go right. Yeah. Yeah.
They go on to say I was surprised

87
00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:15.160
that nobody mentioned the antique archaeology store
from the show American Pickers. I used

88
00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:17.959
to watch that show. I didn't
know they had their own store. But

89
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:20.639
that's the one where they go find
rusty gold. So they go out to

90
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:26.399
somebody's farmhouse and they find like a
classic nineteen sixty nine, you know whatever,

91
00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:30.319
and then they try to buy it. And I've heard that show is

92
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:32.040
all set up, you know,
it's like it's all staged and whatever.

93
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.720
But Andrew says, I've not personally
ever been, but I have heard it

94
00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:39.959
would be a cool spot. But
then I've also heard it's pretty boring and

95
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:45.439
overpriced, so not worth it unless
you plan to spend some dough Right Tea

96
00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:48.439
signs off Andrew in Ohio. It
came up. The Pond Star Store is

97
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:53.839
a disappointment because it's cool that that's
where they do it. But you walk

98
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:56.600
in, there's nothing you want to
buy. There's a bunch of old rings.

99
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.920
It's like every other Pond shop if
you're there to buy old rings and

100
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.639
guitars. But they don't have for
sale the cool stuff that you see them

101
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:11.879
selling and buying on Pond Stars.
So I was definitely disappointed that the Pond

102
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:15.759
Star Store. The coolest thing in
the Pond Star Store is the souvenirs,

103
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:19.360
like the hats and the autographed chum
Ley's shirts and that type of thing.

104
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:25.959
Next one first thing they say is
don't say my name. I will say

105
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:29.079
that it's a long email, but
I read the entire thing. It's about

106
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:31.279
breaking up with a friend. I
just broke up with my best friend of

107
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:34.839
fifteen years, not really, I
kind of ghosted her. And they said,

108
00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:38.399
I've been going back and forth on
writing you about my story for a

109
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:41.560
few months now. I listen every
day and I noticed the topic of breaking

110
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:45.000
up with the friend has come up
multiple times. I finally decide I'm going

111
00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:47.279
to share my story with you after
you asked on the radio today if we've

112
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:51.279
gone through this. So there's a
long version, but it was really interesting.

113
00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:56.439
I won't read the whole thing,
but it was basically they had planned

114
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.920
a trip with an airbnb and they
were going to go somewhere with this woman

115
00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:03.120
husband and so two couples, and
they kept saying, well, where are

116
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:05.399
we going when we get there?
What do we plan on doing? Oh,

117
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:08.759
it's too early, I want to
wrap up twenty twenty three first,

118
00:07:09.279 --> 00:07:12.839
okay, so what we got a
plan when we get to this destination?

119
00:07:13.079 --> 00:07:15.399
Are we going to rent bikes?
Are we going to go snorkeling? Or

120
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:16.959
what are we going to do?
And then the other person said, you

121
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:20.519
know, I haven't planned. We're
not planning, and so it's getting closer

122
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:25.319
and closer, and they wouldn't even
tell her where the airbnb was booked,

123
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.199
and so finally they did and then
they said, well, what time do

124
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:30.759
you guys land so we can meet
you with the airport and whatever. And

125
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:35.839
they were so standoffish and rude during
the entire trip that it made her when

126
00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:40.360
she got home just say, you
know what, I don't like being treated

127
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:43.800
like this. I was respectful.
I asked about planning. I wanted to

128
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:46.879
plan I want to enjoy this,
and you blew me off like it didn't

129
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:49.519
matter. So she concludes with it
was the most difficult thing I had to

130
00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:53.680
do. She was my best friend
since freshman year in high school, but

131
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:57.839
she grew into a different lifestyle with
different morals and values that no longer aligned

132
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:01.639
with mine. I didn't notice how
poorly she had been treating me until I

133
00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:05.279
planned this trip with her and my
fiance pointed out all the rude things she

134
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.360
was doing. I can't believe I
allowed someone to stay in my life for

135
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:11.959
so long and called them my best
friend when all they cared about was making

136
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.959
money. We have been friends for
so long that I was blind to the

137
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:20.279
fact that she was so dismissive of
me for years. I just didn't see

138
00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:24.160
it because we were so close.
And that hurts. You know that when

139
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:26.120
you break up with a friend,
it hurts, and it's kind of like,

140
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:28.399
you know, I don't know,
it's like losing a little piece of

141
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:31.559
you. Of course, so well, and that's a long like from your

142
00:08:31.559 --> 00:08:35.440
freshman year of high school. You
guys have gone through some phases of life.

143
00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:39.000
If that's how long you've been friends
with her? Absolutely? Yeah,

144
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.039
if you were like freshmen in high
school, you've done graduation jobs. Probably

145
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:48.960
your first boyfriend, girlfriend whatever.
Samantha writes in she says, since you

146
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:52.519
need emails, and we always do. I saw TikTok recently of a woman

147
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:58.279
wanting validation that she's not alone with
her insanely expensive car payment of sixteen hundred

148
00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:03.919
dollars a month and her husband's is
one thousand dollars. Some of the comments

149
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.360
we're agreeing with her saying it's impossible
to get a car payment under eight hundred

150
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:13.559
dollars. Are people seriously okay with
spending literally thousands to have a new car?

151
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:16.240
It seems so irresponsible to me.
I'm lucky. I got great credit

152
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:20.720
and I had a sizeable down payment
to contribute when I got my brand new

153
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:24.039
car. But my payment is two
fifty a month, and I can't wait

154
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:26.759
to pay this bitch off. I
think two fifties a little high. Honestly,

155
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:31.559
I'd love to hear some conversation about
this, because it's absolutely bonkers that

156
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:35.200
people think this is normal. Okay, love you buy all right, Jenny?

157
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:37.480
What are your thoughts? I haven't
made a car payment. I've been

158
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:41.679
fortunate enough that I've been able to
pay off to buy my cars with cash.

159
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:43.879
We always by used, always by
used, because it's going to be

160
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:48.279
probably thirty percent cheaper than a new
car. Yeah, sixteen hundred and one

161
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:52.559
thousand dollars are way too high for
a car payment. Depending on the loan,

162
00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:56.840
I guess how long the loan is. But also interest rates for a

163
00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:01.200
car are really are really high too, and cars have gone up because of

164
00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:05.639
inflation quite a bit. So my
payment, I'll openly say it, because

165
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:09.639
I was in a lease and I
just bought out my car back in September,

166
00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:11.960
and I put a little bit of
money down, But my payment's four

167
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:15.759
to thirty four a month, and
that is so fucking high for me,

168
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:18.600
Like it really drives me insane.
I've always had a payment closer to like

169
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.120
two fifty or like in the two
hundred range, So that is a lot

170
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:26.600
of money for me, but it
was like the best I could do with

171
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.960
interest rates. Okay, awkward editing
the podcast. You probably won't even notice

172
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:31.679
it, but I want to.
I want to ask you a question,

173
00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:35.919
how long is your loan for your
car? Because I think that's what people

174
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:41.000
will do they'll get a seven year
loan on their car to lower their payments.

175
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:45.879
Problem is, the life span of
a lot of cars is struggling to

176
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.279
get this seven years. Can I
ask you how long? Yeah, no,

177
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:50.360
I don't care. Mine's three years. Oh that's a that's a really

178
00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:54.360
good term. Yeah. Yeah,
so, but yeah, I've the I'm

179
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:56.279
still on the side of sixteen hundred
is way too much for a car payment.

180
00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:58.799
I don't know what kind of car
she has, but like, if

181
00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:01.039
you have a little bit more of
a modest car, you shouldn't be paying

182
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:03.519
quite that much. Oh well,
I think that's the thing is a lot

183
00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:07.080
of people want to buy. I've
heard somewhere and I always like this.

184
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:13.440
It's like buy the most expensive house
you can afford, and the most practical

185
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:16.879
car, like the least expensive practical
car. In other words, you don't

186
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:20.759
want a junker that you spent twenty
five hundred dollars on, but you want

187
00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:24.399
something because your car. People love
their car and they love to show it

188
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:28.080
off. But the whole at appreciation, No, it does not, and

189
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:33.039
the home will appreciate, and that
is a difference. So I've always bought,

190
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:35.960
you know, listen, I don't
buy cheap junker cars. I buy

191
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:41.320
nice cars, but cars aren't important
to me. When I first made good

192
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.559
money, I bought a Porsche,
at least a Porsche. Yeah. The

193
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:48.960
payments were I want to say,
nine hundred dollars a month, and I

194
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:52.279
realized about three months in I am
not a car person. I don't care.

195
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:54.759
I don't care about a Porsche.
It was beautiful. People would stare

196
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:56.759
at me at stop lights and I
was like, what are you staring at

197
00:11:56.840 --> 00:12:01.000
you? Oh, it's because of
my car. And I realized that I'm

198
00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:03.080
never going to spend that kind of
money on a car again. But I

199
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:07.600
do think that there are people who
want to get that Mercedes or that range

200
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.639
Rover because cars look so cool and
it feels so cool. If you're a

201
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.000
car person, and I'm not,
you know, judging anybody who is a

202
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.360
car person, there's not important to
me. Yeah, it's one thing that

203
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:22.320
I admire a cool fancy car when
I see it. Like you go to

204
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:24.679
Wyzetta, You're going to see a
lot of fun, fancy cars there,

205
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:26.639
and I admire them. But for
me, I'm like, get me to

206
00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:31.200
point A and B and that's all
I need. Yeah, And I think

207
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:33.519
that there's part of that. And
but you have a nice car. I

208
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:35.279
mean you drive like a like a
CRV or something like that. Yeah it's

209
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:39.559
a Mazda CX five. Okay,
yeah, I wasn't even close. Next

210
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:45.360
one, don't use my name.
Longtime listener, first time writer. Having

211
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:48.360
major life changes, and I wanted
to throw it out to the group,

212
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:52.159
and here we go. I work
for one of Minnesota's biggest companies, and

213
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:56.720
I have a great job. Long
story short. I never thought this would

214
00:12:56.759 --> 00:12:58.519
be me, but I had a
baby a year ago and suddenly want to

215
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:03.320
spend every moment with the baby,
knowing nothing is forever. They grow up

216
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:07.519
so fast. So after my husband's
recent promotion, I decided I'm going to

217
00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:09.200
be a stay at home mom.
So I'm not gonna work anymore. Okay,

218
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:13.159
I'm pretty introverted, so he's worried
I'll be a home alone too much.

219
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:16.039
I'm excited to be with my daughter
all day and I don't have any

220
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:20.120
concerns about that. But what are
some ways I can be successful at this

221
00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:24.879
new job of staying home. I'm
so used to an office schedule routine.

222
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:28.240
I have worked since I was fifteen, so it's a major change. I'm

223
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:31.440
afraid I'm gonna mess it up.
Tips her mothers, stay at home moms

224
00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:35.840
if that term is still relevant,
would be awesome, or just general options.

225
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:39.279
Thanks, have a great day,
love y'all. I got nothing.

226
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:41.159
Yeah, I was gonna say,
we're gonna need some help with that one,

227
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:43.879
because neither Dave or myself or stay
at home moms. So I don't

228
00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:48.799
know any tips for that. No, and so if you got anything,

229
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:54.840
send an email to Ryan's show at
KDWB dot com. All right, hitting

230
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:58.080
the lead on that one. We're
getting in some longer ones here, running

231
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:01.720
a little bit out of time,
so let me go back to I've got

232
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:07.600
about three minutes left here. So
this one says morning show crew, love

233
00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:11.480
the show. I'm appreciative of the
full show being published in podcast form so

234
00:14:11.559 --> 00:14:15.240
I can listen to it on my
own schedule. Please don't say my name.

235
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:18.720
I don't need the hate. Lol. So they're basically talking about we

236
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.960
mentioned yesterday breakdancing is going to be
an Olympic sport, and I said,

237
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:26.919
that's interesting. I said, I
respect people got it wrong. I respect

238
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:33.000
dancing. It is You've got to
be super athletic to do breakdancing. I

239
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.039
know, exactly what it is and
what. But but then we kind of

240
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:41.080
joked It's like, well, is
it a sport or no? And I

241
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:43.759
think that there's always going to be
a little argument depending on your definition of

242
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:48.600
a sport. Is golf a sport? Well? Yeah? Is it an

243
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.480
Olympic sport? I don't know.
I think that the Olympics wanted to add

244
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:58.399
breakdancing to make it more relevant and
attractive to younger people. Yeastily. I

245
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:03.039
feel like the Winter Olympics are kind
a little sexier and fun with like snowboarding

246
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.480
and those kind of events, and
Summer Olympics, like volleyball's fun for me,

247
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:09.679
but there's not a ton in Summer
Olympics that I care about. Then

248
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:13.480
we talked about I joked about,
well, is hairstyling a sport? Or

249
00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:18.879
jump roping is a sport that's athletic
as hell, but is it a sport?

250
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:22.840
So? And then I said,
well, are they going to bring

251
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:26.279
in PoCA? Why don't they just
have dance in general? And it's not

252
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.519
a you know, a criticism of
break dancing. They go on to say,

253
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:35.639
I do like the rule that if
it's in we sports resort, then

254
00:15:35.639 --> 00:15:39.200
it must be a sport and should
be the Olympics. But this is rules

255
00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:43.279
that we eventually set along with my
friends. And they wrote this with bullet

256
00:15:43.279 --> 00:15:46.440
points and indentations and bold fonts,
and okay, so here we go.

257
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:52.320
We are lawyers, by the way, so maybe that tells you a little

258
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:56.960
bit about their organization. And Athletic
competition is any activity involving physical exercise,

259
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:03.200
bodily coordination, and skill where teams
or individuals are able to compete against each

260
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:10.320
other under subjective scoring metrics. Gymnastics, dance, jumping, rope, roller

261
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:17.039
skating, freestyle, snowboarding, or
surfing. And they refer to a bunch

262
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:21.759
of Disney movies and that's kind of
funny. Karate, Sorry, Ralph Machio,

263
00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:26.120
Karateo is not. Karate is not
a sport under this rule. But

264
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:33.320
then again, wrestling and boxing our
Olympic sports. A sport point two.

265
00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:40.320
A sport is an athletic competition involving
both strategy and an objective metric for scoring.

266
00:16:40.720 --> 00:16:42.559
Basketball, hockey, football, baseball, softball, tennis, soccer,

267
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:45.440
racquetball, golf, track and field, volleyball, across, rowing, rugby,

268
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:49.159
disc golf, ultimate frisbee, table
tennis, and bowling. Wait A

269
00:16:49.240 --> 00:16:56.200
second, involving only minimum body movement
and coordination. Hairstyle and Chess don't meet

270
00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:02.200
the requisite levels of physical activity to
qualify as either, and I wish I

271
00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:03.519
had time to read more of it. I am on a time crunch right

272
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:07.279
now, but I love the fucking
thought that you put into this, Tyler.

273
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:11.680
That is amazing, So thank you. I appreciate a letter from a

274
00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:15.400
lawyer. That is it for the
Minnesota Goodbye,
