Okay, we are going to do the Minnesota Goodbye. We have a real
shortage of emails today. So I was going to talk about things side hustles
when you're a kid. So side hustles when you're a kid, what did
you try to do when you were a kid to make money. I think
that I had a lot of things to sell when I was a kid.
I was one of those kids that would buy like you get in the back
of a comic book or whatever, and it would have like sell flower seeds
or sell greeting cards to make money. And the problem was I live in
a rural area. I grew up in a rural area, so for me
to sell anything, there's only about five neighbors nearby that I knew. And
I was not going to ride my bike twenty miles around black Forest, Colorado,
with a neighbor every half mile and sell flow. So I never really
did. Anyone did well and then so I never really had like a money
making thing. I did have a lemonade stand. One time I had one
customer come by, and that is why I always stop at lemonade stands because
I was so happy I made like a dime or something. Back then,
but that's why I always say stop at lemonade stands, because it makes them
so happy. Here's the problem, Balan, What's that nobody carries no cash,
no more. That's true, but unless a kid takes Benmo got one
of those little squares, you can't get at the stop at eliminate stands.
Last year, at the Fourth of July Excelsior Parade thing they have, there
were kids with lemonade and cookie stands and they had their parents of Venmo up
and it was baller. I was like, God, of course an Excelsior.
But I never had a kid at any kids side hustles and do anything.
You kind of grew up in the same situation that I did. I
mean, you know, there's no paper route. I mean the houses were
too far apart for a paper route. I think some kids would have like
a backyard carnival or something and charge other neighborhood could kids. Oh they didn't
have that, that's fancy. Yeah, well we never did that either.
But I would say, other than shoplifting candy from Black Forest store, didn't
really have a side hustle. Well, you know, it's weird. I
so I grew up without any money, but I didn't have a job until
I went to college. And I feel like, usually when you don't grow
up with a lot of money, your parents will like get your ass to
work in as soon as you turn like sixteen or fifteen in some cases.
Yeah, but I didn't, so yeah, I got my first job when
I was sixteen. Now I think I was fifteen. I worked at the
Air Force Academy at the football game, selling hot dogs and coke, and
I would make like five bucks. And I remember one time my dad picked
me up and he said, how much you make today? And I said
five bucks. He's like five bucks. I drove all the way over here,
spent more in gas than five bucks because we did like a twenty five
mile drive to the Air Force Academy. And so he said, next week,
stay home and I'll give you five bucks. That's hilarious. I will
tell you this side hustle that I saw my neighbors and I lived in Minneapolis
do it. It was so amazing. They set up a lemonade stand,
but didn't do elimonade. They sold iced coffees. And I was like,
honestly, what a genius move, because adults would way rather have an iced
coffee than a lemonade. That's probably true. Yeah, I mean it's got
to be done well. Yeah. I mean I think that you know what
you're getting when you buy something from a you know, a kid, but
yeah, from a kid. Yeah, and sometimes they go bonus and they
have cookies alongside them, or brownies or something too. And you know what.
I there was one I didn't stop at a couple of weeks ago because
I didn't have any cash. And there's these cute, probably ten year olds
that are waving with a hopeful smile on their face, and I waved back,
but I didn't stop. I didn't have any cash. Yeah, And
so I went to Allison's house and I told her about it. I said,
on the way home, do you have any cash on you so I
can stop with this kid's lemonade stand? And she said, I get a
ten and three quarters. So I took her ten and I went in three
quarters. And then I decided not to stop because I didn't I just didn't
want to ask them if they had change and then awkwardly give them a ten
dollar bill. So wow, So he just took ten dollars from your daughter
and they didn't even use it. For the lemonade that's sick. Dave got
him a terrible dad terrible Let's check out Minnesota Good Buying emails and see what
we've got. You all have been mentioning the movie Sound of Freedom on the
podcast, and I have some thoughts because Sound of Freedom is the movie that
talks about all the human trafficking and the sex trafficking. And we got a
really interesting email yesterday for and I can't remember their name, but it's very
thoughtful, and they said, I've been studying on this, and they said
that there is more made worldwide from human trafficking than all the airlines in the
world combined. And I said, I have to question that because I was
at the Denver Airport yesterday thinking that thought, and I thought, I'm just
at the Denver Airport. Everybody here has bought a ticket for multiple hundreds of
dollars and this is just one airport. So I said, you know,
I hope it's not one of those things that's made up, because people want
to make things up. So I basically was like, I'm questioning that.
So anyway, this is what goes on to say, and it's fascinating.
Obviously, human trafficking exists and it's horrific. However, claims of its prevalence
are greatly exam rated. I highly suggest listening to two podcasts of my second
favorite podcasts behind yours. The podcast is called You're Wrong About and the episodes
are called Human Trafficking and Way Fair and Human Trafficking Statistics. So she says,
essentially, with multiple agencies reporting inconsistent qualifications for being reported, and the
same people being reported multiple times, it makes numbers of trafficked individuals seem high,
far higher than they actually are. Again, is not saying the actual
trafficking should not be stopped or it doesn't exist. Of course it should,
but the issue has been very inflated and has become a propped up issue of
right wing and religious groups. I didn't know that there was one group that
was propping it up. I truly didn't, and I would not understand the
interest in why right wing and religious groups are propping it up. I don't
know why. I understand if you don't read this on the podcast, because
I know you guys try not to get political. However, I feel this
is very important content or context. You guys rock You know I don't have
a problem reading it because I don't feel it is political. I feel it's
misinformation, and there's nothing political about misinformation unless you say, why are people
politicizing misinformation? In other words, I'm going to say there is some inflated
statistic about this. What is my political gain though? I'm not sure?
Yeah, I don't know. Interesting. I will check out that podcast.
Thank you. Another Minnesota goodbuye email. I was watching reels and an ad
popped up. It was an ad about male private part growth pills, and
it showed the real thing, like a real penis. Oh. I was
a bit shocked as I was watching reels while I was at work and on
my break in the lunch room. Good thing I didn't have the sound on,
says no heating chow. I think that you can show a real penis
if it's done under terms of medical information. Maybe yeah, I bet so.
I bet so, But it is still surprising. It's still surprising when
you see like body parts, which is so crazy in this day and age.
There's no pill that grows male junk. There's no pill that makes it
bigger. It might be able to give you a boner. I love that
word boner, but it doesn't make it bigger. I will be honest with
you. There's an ad right now that runs on porn Hub, and I
don't look at porn hub, but I was looking over shoots Susan short right,
yeah, obviously, and it's like, you have a small It literally
says your dick is small. Wow, try this gummy once a day for
two weeks and add up to five inches to your penis size. And it
shows a like a graphic illustration of a animated penis growing from like flaccid to
like ginormous. Yeah, And it shows a woman dressed as a doctor who
is holding a gummy, then a guy chewing the gummy. And there is
nothing that is out there that is going to enlarge your penis. We just
had a thing I can't remember if I honestly don't remember what was roses or
group therapy or what it was about a penis pump. And funny enough,
this most recent episode of And just like that, the Sex and the City
show the woman her guy's like, hey, sometimes I have ed issues.
I hope that's not a problem. She's like, oh, I don't care,
and he's like, oh great, I'm so glad you're understanding, and
he hops up and grabs a penis pump and she's she's like shocked, and
he pumps it and they hook up and she's like the sex was good,
Like, I don't care that he uses it, but of course, in
you know how sex and the city works. The next time they hook up,
he finishes and she pulls out her vibrator and he's like, I'm sorry,
what are you doing? And she's like, what do you mean?
And he's like, I'm not okay with that. She's like, so you
think it's I should be okay with you pumping your penis. He's like,
that's totally different, and she's like wow, and then he like leaves because
he's uncomfortable with Harry using a vibrator, and I just thought that was funny.
I don't understand. I can see his point, though, because if
he's got a rectile this function and he uses a penis pump to get hard,
that's different than him not pleasing her. One is like a physical condition.
So I wouldn't be mad if she used a vibrator. No, but
I totally see the difference. There is a difference, well, there is,
but it's also a little bit like that helps you get off. Him
using the penis pump helps him to get off because he couldn't with he couldn't
have sex if that did not give him an erection. Well, it's like
using lube. I mean, if she could not lubricate, then she used
lube. I wouldn't shame her for that, right, maybe, like you
have a problem with lubrication, go ahead and use it. I don't see
them. It's sex in the city and it's fictionalized, and I think it's
bullshit. But I think of again, some of those reptile dysfunction brought from
like real like stories, you know, how like people sit around the writers
room like Okay, I know my friend that did this or whatever. So
I think some things are kind of loosely, loosely based off of real storylines,
you know. I don't think that a penis pump works to give you
an erection. I don't know how this was. Yeah, I don't think
it works to give you an direction because I think that you're you use your
hand or something to give yourself an erection, or her hand to give you
an erection. I don't see what your a penis pump would do that your
hand couldn't do. It must be some kind of pressure that builds that a
hand doesn't provide. You're gonna you're not gonna want to know this. But
I was in a period of my life a few years ago where I was
so stressed that I could not get I hate even talking about this, but
I could not. There is no way. And Susan was like, what's
wrong, and I'm like, it is not you. It is just I
am under just an amount of stress and I'm just not happy. And even
if we wanted to have sex, there's no way because it was not going
to happen and it was a temporary thing. But a penis pump or a
hand or nothing would have worked. Yeah, you know, Yeah, I
know other people who have had issues with that too. Someone else I know,
and I can't remember what he said he did. I can't refer It
was like a medication he was on, so he got off of, or
medication he got on to try to help or something. I can't remember what
it was. But yeah, I believe a lot of antidepressants will cause directile
dysfunction in guys. And so that's one of those side that's called they call
it certain sexual side. Effects, and I've seen them on like in the
ads they give all the side effects of the you know, whatever this drug
is could cause certain sexual side effects. It's like, well, what does
that mean? It means you can't get you dick up? So okay,
is that too graphic? I'm being just a little bit too vulgar. On
this podcast you talked about eating ass before. I think you're fine. I
think a penis pump is advertised as to like make your junk bigger. And
I gotta tell you, I've brought this up before and people are gonna say,
well, Dave must have a small penis, because I feel bad for
guys that have a small penis. Some guys do, and there's not a
lot you can do about it. I only have one guy I've ever been
with, and we didn't have sex that I even like, can I can
think of like, oh, that was a rather small penis the only one
person that even comes to mind. I don't think it's that common. I
don't think it is, but it's it's kind of like, you know,
I don't know, missing a leg. It's not that common, but I
feel bad for people that are missing a leg or have a small penis,
because you know they'll compare them. People will say something like, yeah,
i'll bet he's got a small dick. Oh, he drives a big truck.
I'll bet he's making up for a small dick, as if having a
small dick is a personality flaw right. You know, you wouldn't say,
well, yeah, she's only got one leg, that's why she's a bitch.
You know, it's just it's unfair. And as a man with two
sons, I just find it unfair that guys with small dicks have to be
made to feel that way. All right, next one, I think we
only have one more, Dave. I heard on the news there is a
unicycle event happened in this weekend. But I also saw a guy and a
unicycle waiting at the bus stop. It made me think of you, thank
you. I'm out of town, or I might even consider going to the
unicycle event. I bought a unicycle that arrived in the mail a week ago.
I've tried writing it. It is very, very tricky, but doable.
Didn't you say Dylan learned your steps? An No, Jake's brother and
I didn't say an hour. I think I said it in one day.
Yeah, they say it takes like eight to ten days to learn to ride
one. Well, it's like, well, how much time are you going
to put in? Yeah, so folon it terrifies me. Well, I
understand it told you that. I don't know why you would go from rollerblades,
which seemed much safer than a unicycle, to being like I'm terrified to
get on rollerblades, to then going to a unicycle. I think that there's
something wrong with you. What's going on there? I like adventure, oh,
but I don't like to get hurt. Yeah. Fair, It's kind
of like, what do you want to do this adventurous? I mean you're
not a big adventurer or you like to go hiking or whatever, but you
have no desire to go like climb a mountain or do like repelling or anything
like that. Right. Well, I mean I'd like to climb a mountain,
but it'd be great if someone could pull me up the mountain. Actually,
they actually have a term for that. It's called short roping. Yeah,
and a lot of rich people will go to Mount Everest. They'll hire
a sherpa to basically short rope them up the mountain. Oh wow, their
first is not that hard. I mean relative is not that hard to climb,
they say, compared to like K two and other big mountains. Yeah,
it's just the tallest in the world. That's why it's got the you
know, the fame and notoriety. But they say it's not that difficult to
climb. I have no desire. I used to think that'd be fun one
day, But at eighty ninety thousand dollars to go do it, the six
or eight weeks it takes to do it, and the danger of dying,
uh huh, that's not not not worth it, and go by the pool.
Let's just going to lay by the pool instead. Let's say for anything
else to add to the Minnesota combined. We gotta wrap it up. There's
someone apparently it's been in the hallway this entire time waiting for a photo,
so I gotta lave it there out there for twenty minutes. So we gotta
wrap it up. Send your emails too, Ryan Show at KDWB dot com.
