WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:03.399 We're going to start off the podcast with something a little bit different. So 2 00:00:04.320 --> 00:00:06.960 my wife this I don't want to really talk about this on the radio, 3 00:00:07.000 --> 00:00:12.400 but Susan, about five or six years or so ago, went in for 4 00:00:12.439 --> 00:00:17.399 a gallbladder operation. So her belly really hurt all day long, all day 5 00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:21.640 long. She finally drove herself to the two twelve Medical Center and she called 6 00:00:21.679 --> 00:00:24.160 and she said, they got to take my gallbladder out. So they took 7 00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:30.079 her in an ambulance from the from two twelve down to Waconia to do the 8 00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:33.439 operation. The next day, they do the gallbladder operation, and I'm on 9 00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:36.560 the couch, I'm taking a nap and I get a phone call from the 10 00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:38.399 doctor and I said, how did it go? And she's like, well, 11 00:00:38.439 --> 00:00:45.240 it went good, but she said, we found something that doesn't look 12 00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:49.159 good. There's a mass in her belly and it doesn't look good. And 13 00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:53.280 I said, could it be cancer? And she's like, well, that's 14 00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:56.200 kind of what we're thinking. And I'm like, oh my gosh. So 15 00:00:56.960 --> 00:00:59.799 it was probably about the size of a shoe, if I remember, like 16 00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:07.319 real big, but a smallest shoe. So one of the doctors got the 17 00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:11.920 woman who did the gallbladder surgery, and an on collogist came in and they 18 00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:15.040 go, yeah, it looks like it could be cancer. You know, 19 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.000 we'll get it tested and in a week we'll find out what the results are. 20 00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:22.840 So we get the results and a week later. It took a week 21 00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:25.359 and we're on pins and needles, thinking, oh my god, she could 22 00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:26.560 die. That was the story. Remember when she looked at me and she 23 00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:32.640 said I don't want to die. Yeah, And so I called my friend 24 00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:37.799 Brentley, and I love telling the story. Susan has eyes that when she 25 00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:41.439 gets tired, they look different ways. And so Brentley's been my friend off 26 00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:44.599 and on for a long long time. So I called Brentley, very upset, 27 00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:46.560 needed to talk to somebody, And I said, Brentley, she looked 28 00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.040 at me and she said, I don't want to die. And Brentley said, 29 00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.879 well, how could you tell where she was looking? Which was the 30 00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:56.640 perfect laugh that I needed at that moment because it was such a tension breaker, 31 00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:00.519 and I was like halfway crying, and that motherfucker made me laugh by 32 00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:05.000 saying that. So and then anyway, she it was a weird sort of 33 00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:10.240 cancer that is benign but very serious, and they took it out and I 34 00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:13.639 was on pins and needles. They took it out and blah blah blah. 35 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:20.319 So she has to go back in for an MRI or scan or something every 36 00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.759 year. So today is the day she goes in for that. Everything's been 37 00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:28.199 fine and this is the last one that if she doesn't have anything, then 38 00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:31.039 then she's, you know, got a clean bill of health. Good. 39 00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:36.000 So but they do the test day and it takes a week to get the 40 00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:42.120 results back, so she won't have her results until next Friday. Next Friday, 41 00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:47.080 I'm going to be in Colorado. Oh And I said, should I 42 00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:51.599 stay here? And she's like no, I said, what if the results 43 00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:53.280 are not good? And she's like, well, then we'll deal with that, 44 00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:59.120 but don't miss your trip to Colorado. So that's kind of what we're 45 00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:00.360 dealing with, you know what. I And every time we do it, 46 00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:05.560 everything turns out fine, but of course you still get nervous. You know, 47 00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:07.639 it's been five or six years. Yes, I can imagine. I 48 00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:13.400 mean any kind of appointment where you know there might be like the tiniest negative 49 00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:17.639 outcome is scary. Like your health is just you literally like don't think about 50 00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:22.639 your health until something could be going wrong with it. You know, you 51 00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:24.680 just go through your daily life and then when something comes up all of a 52 00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:28.879 sudden, it like consumes you. And we've learned that this year with my 53 00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:31.599 little sister and her stroke. Yeah. Right, still dealing with tons of 54 00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:37.159 like after effect things with that. Because with your little sister and her stroke, 55 00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:39.680 I mean, she was like doing she was running and active and yeah, 56 00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:44.080 doing her thing, and she's like thirty is it's only twenty eight. 57 00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.759 Oh, she's twenty eight, okay, and you don't think about health and 58 00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:49.680 then all of a sudden she had a stroke, yeah, which is like, 59 00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:51.919 you don't even think about having a stroke when you're twenty eight. You 60 00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:54.120 don't worry about anything with your health most of the time when you're twenty eight 61 00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.759 years old. Right, how is she doing now? She's doing good. 62 00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:00.520 She did just try to get this sten put in because she has this blood 63 00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:04.759 blockage in her neck from some artery damage. Yeah, and they weren't able 64 00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:09.080 to do that, so she still has to remain on blood thinners. And 65 00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:13.520 it's just it's the weirdest thing that you don't realize could happen. But you 66 00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:16.279 know, she barely bumps her hip on the side of a door or something, 67 00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:20.319 and she's got to bruise the size, like twice the size. Yeah, 68 00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:25.319 or she this is a weird example, picks a z it and it 69 00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:29.079 bleeds and it starts just bleeding and bleeding and it won't stop. It will 70 00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:32.839 coagulated tooth thin. Yeah. So unfortunately they could not get the stent in. 71 00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.519 It was too It just wasn't safe enough. I'll try it, let 72 00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:38.839 me try it. I don't think that that's how we're going to go back 73 00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:42.560 to. I am a red car, I'm Red Cross trained, pretty sure 74 00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:45.879 I can do this. Yeah, there's it reminds me of an interesting movie 75 00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:46.959 scene. I'm kind of all over the place today because we don't have a 76 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:48.959 lot of emails, to be honest with you, so Jenny and I got 77 00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:54.439 to come up with her own content. There's a movie with Russell Crowe called 78 00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:58.600 Master and Commander, and it was an overlooked movie from twenty years ago, 79 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:01.319 and it's so oh good. It's kind of made a resurgence and if you're 80 00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:05.279 looking for a movie, it's it's such a I'll be honest with you, 81 00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:09.160 it's a little bit more of a dude movie because it's all these dudes on 82 00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:13.560 a ship back in the seventeen hundreds and they're warring with another ship off the 83 00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:16.319 coast of South America whatever, and Russell Crowe is one of the commanders. 84 00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:23.360 So you talk about self surgery or amateur surgery. The doctor on the ship 85 00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.519 is one of the heroes of the movie. You get shot in a battle, 86 00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:30.240 but he doesn't die. He's got the bullet lodged in his belly and 87 00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:33.240 he's got to get it out or the bullet in his belly will kill him. 88 00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.839 Ok. So the assistant doctor, who is kind of a buffoon, 89 00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:43.120 is like, i'll do it. I'll take it out, and he's looking 90 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:46.240 at books and he's like trying to thumb through pages to try to figure it 91 00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:47.800 out. And the Doctor's like, if I have this guy do the surgery, 92 00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:53.680 he's gonna kill me. So the doctor operated on himself. He not 93 00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:57.199 a movie, but still yeah, but I think that's actually happened before in 94 00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:00.560 history somewhere. But he has somebody hold a mirror up, cuts into his 95 00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:04.839 belly and removes the bullet and he lives. Master and Commander Actually a really 96 00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:09.160 good movie that reminds me of the time that I pierced my own belly button 97 00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:13.399 myself. Tell me about that. So we got a what was called the 98 00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:16.279 cow needle from Fleet Farm, so it was a hollowed out needle. Yeah, 99 00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:20.199 okay, And I had already pierced it once and it got like all 100 00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:23.639 messed up, so I let it close and I was like, I still 101 00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:27.040 want it pierced. So I got it pierced again, and my friend who 102 00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.759 was supposed to be doing at that time, got weirded out halfway through. 103 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:32.759 So I just stood up because I was like laying on the ground and she's 104 00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:35.000 like doing it. I just stood up, looked in a mirror and just 105 00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:39.800 did it. You're a badass, Jenny, Seriously. Next week on the 106 00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:43.480 show, Jenny's going to take out her own gallbladder and that'll be really dope. 107 00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.600 Now, I'll hold the mirror, Drake will get it all on Instagram 108 00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:48.120 Live, and you take out your own gall bladder. It'll be a good 109 00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:50.920 bit. All right. Let's move on some emails. We do have some 110 00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:54.839 here. It's a little bit slow for emails. So if you have something 111 00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:57.480 you want to talk about and you're going I want an email on the show, 112 00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:01.079 then please send it into Ryan Show. At Katie listen to the show 113 00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:04.480 yesterday had to write in about getting a puppy for Christmas. There was a 114 00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:09.160 sister who called in and said, my sister is making a dumb mistake. 115 00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:12.560 She wants to get my mom a puppy for Christmas, and I don't want 116 00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.000 her to. So we had a big debate about that, and so many 117 00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:17.000 people texted it about that. One not sure if you want to read this 118 00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:19.800 on the show to help out Stephanie and Marissa, this happened to my family. 119 00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:24.480 I work in an animal shelter and I always sent my mom puppy picks. 120 00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:27.759 My mom and dad already had two dogs, both four years all the 121 00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:30.240 time, but my mom wanted a puppy so bad, so she schemed with 122 00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:36.439 me to surprise my dad with a puppy for Christmas. Let's just say it 123 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:44.319 went about as bad as it could. We surprised my dad with a puppy 124 00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:46.480 and he stared blankly at it and said is that yours? And I said 125 00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:51.040 no, it's your new puppy, and he just walked away. Then we 126 00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:55.240 introduced the new puppy to the other dogs, who proceeded a growl and snap 127 00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:58.199 at it. It was the most tense and awkward Christmas. Ever, and 128 00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:01.480 to top it off, the puppy got sick the next day. Wow, 129 00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.920 well that is horrible. I'm sorry that that turned out. That's terrible. 130 00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:11.079 Fast forward eight years later, and that puppy is my dad's absolute best friend 131 00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:16.879 and gets along great with the other dogs. So I guess it all worked 132 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:18.800 out in the inn. I say, get your mom that puppy if you're 133 00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:22.720 ready for a potentially awkward holiday. Also, please adopt. So many puppies 134 00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:26.680 need homes, and shelters have return policies. If it ends up not being 135 00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:28.759 a good fit, you will get your money back. Your mom can pick 136 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:31.279 up the dog. She pick the dog she wants, and the puppy will 137 00:08:31.320 --> 00:08:33.600 get a new home. Better yet, just get her a gift card to 138 00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:37.519 a shelter and go pick out a puppy with her. You could wrap the 139 00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:41.360 gift card and a caller and dog toys and it'll be just a special good 140 00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:43.919 luck Jessica. That's a great story. It is a great story. Someone 141 00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:48.840 had called in on the show yesterday and said that a dog picks you like 142 00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.759 so he was saying it's not a good idea because like the dog should pick 143 00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:54.279 the mom, and I brought that up to Andrew and I was telling him 144 00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.519 about the segment last night, and he when he got Mickey, the dog 145 00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:01.519 that we used to have, he saw her on the Animal Humane Society website. 146 00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:03.279 It was like, oh my gosh, she's so cute. I want 147 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:07.480 her. But he said that that is so true that when he went and 148 00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:09.879 saw her at the Humane Society, like she did pick him and he could 149 00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:13.399 tell that she wanted to go home with him. I think that's so true, 150 00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:18.840 Jenny, because I've heard that when you go to pick out a dog, 151 00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:22.559 you want to get the dog that pays attention to you, not the 152 00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:24.519 other dog. So my first experience that with that. We got a dog 153 00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:28.279 named Gracie. We saw her back when people used to read the newspaper. 154 00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:33.080 There was the dog of the week at the Golden Valley Humane Society, so 155 00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:37.919 there was a golden yellow lab whatever and it was the dog of the week. 156 00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:39.480 We went down there, and of course that dog had already been adopted, 157 00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:43.320 but we saw this collie that was so skinny. She looked like a 158 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.799 greyhound. She was so skinny, but had collie fur and colors on her, 159 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:50.519 and she was so excited when we came by her little kennel and she 160 00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:54.360 would get up on her hind legs and put her paws up on the kennel 161 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:56.559 fence because she was so excited to see us. Yeah, and then we 162 00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:00.480 took her outside. And they say, if you take the dog out to 163 00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:03.960 the play area and it's busy sniffing other dog's butts and running with other dogs, 164 00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:09.960 that dog is not necessarily a great dog. But Gracie that was the 165 00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:11.519 name that they gave her. We never changed it. She wanted to be 166 00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:15.480 with us, and we took her home and she was such a good girl. 167 00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.799 And Josie was the same way. We got Josie at a pet store. 168 00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:20.279 I'm not ashamed to admit I got her at a pet store. I 169 00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:24.080 won't do it again. Yeah, but we got her at a pet store 170 00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:28.919 in Colorado and she was probably i don't know, ten weeks twelve weeks old, 171 00:10:28.919 --> 00:10:31.240 and her and her brother were both for sale, and so we looked 172 00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.960 at both of them, and her brother was kind of like aloof and was 173 00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:37.639 like trying to get out of the little visiting, you know, little room 174 00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:41.480 or whatever. But Josie was so happy to be with us, and she 175 00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:46.600 has been the best dog I've ever had. Yeah, it is so true. 176 00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.080 They do kind of choose you. But I'm glad it really worked out 177 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:54.759 all right. So yesterday we got an email from Kelly, and Kelly had 178 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.399 said, hey, you might remember this one. She talked about the state 179 00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.919 seal and why there is a French phrase on it, and then she said, 180 00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.879 well that is the state motto. And she talked about how it's tattooed 181 00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:09.960 on her arm. And remember we looked at this arm and we said, 182 00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:13.919 oh, that's a guy. Yeah with the wait, there's no hair on 183 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:16.320 this arm. That's a woman's arm with a lot of muscles. So Kelly 184 00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:20.200 heard that. She laughed and she said, thanks for reading my email today. 185 00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:24.480 Just got to say women can have strong muscles too. Oh, doesn't 186 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:26.039 say Kelly. I don't know where I got the word Kelly. Well wait, 187 00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:30.799 it is Kelly, but she sent it from Rachel's email. So okay, 188 00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:33.639 Rachel, Kelly's using your email. Just let you know. But no, 189 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.919 obviously women can have strong muscles too. But she's pretty ripped. Yes, 190 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:48.759 a very good bicep. Next one, here we go year's long listener 191 00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:54.120 and a fifth or so time emailer. You can say my name Kevin. 192 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:58.080 Someone on today's podcast asked about the Space Needle studio, and that reminded me 193 00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:03.240 that I am wondered the same thing you've said previously. You're on the sixtieth 194 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:05.720 floor, so I got curious and I looked up the building on Google street 195 00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:09.559 View, and I said, he's full of shit. That's not a sixty 196 00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:11.759 story building. Fifth floor makes much more sense. Also, not wanting to 197 00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:16.639 be gullible, I was hesitant to believe when you said at one point that 198 00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:20.639 the top floor spins like the real Space Needle. As silly as it sounds, 199 00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:24.799 please confirm if this is true or false. As much as I don't 200 00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.080 believe it, my curiosity wants to know. You mentioned today you faced East, 201 00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:31.240 so I think it pretty much confirms my skepticism. But I had to 202 00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:37.600 ask, No, the top of the building doesn't revolve. But I'm glad 203 00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:41.639 that we got an image in your head that makes everything seem a little bit 204 00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:45.879 more magical. Yeah, it's just an office building that if you drove by 205 00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:48.480 it, you would think there'd be a law firm or an acupuncturist clinic in 206 00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:54.440 this just a building. Secondly, you guys touched on parents not allowing children 207 00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:58.519 to date, including someone who did not date until nineteen years old. I 208 00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:03.879 am twenty five. For my parents were chill, but sim similarly have yet 209 00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.399 to be in a serious relationship, aside from a girl in my high school 210 00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:11.759 I've message in FaceTime with but claims her father won't allow her to date under 211 00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:16.120 his roof despite being an adult. That's a story way too long for the 212 00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:20.120 podcast, But the realist in me decided, I just need to accept what 213 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.000 it is and that I'll be happier just embracing being single, thinking positively. 214 00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:28.240 Being single allows me to focus on my job, my personal wellness, and 215 00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:31.440 travels, which are my therapy. The more I focus on myself right now, 216 00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:35.200 the more ready I'll be to make that jump into the dating scene in 217 00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:37.840 a couple of years, when I'm more established in my new home, career, 218 00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:41.600 et cetera, and perhaps in a better mental headspace to handle heartbreak. 219 00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:46.679 Just wanted to add this to my perspective, add this to share my perspective 220 00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:50.679 and maybe help those in my situation realize that being single isn't such a bad 221 00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:52.840 thing. You just need to have the right mindset. I've got my family, 222 00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:56.480 friends, a cat, and trips on the books and that's all I 223 00:13:56.519 --> 00:13:58.919 need right now anyway, want to share that story because I thought it's so 224 00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:01.600 what tied end. Thanks for all you do, dart lick and have a 225 00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:07.480 good weekend. Here's the address for stickers if you have any left, and 226 00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:09.679 I will make sure I get you one. There we go, Kevin, 227 00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:18.000 I would say, it is a little surprising that you're twenty four and haven't 228 00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:22.559 dated, but you know what, if you're happy with it, that's fine. 229 00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:26.360 Carson doesn't date, and he would not listen to this podcast, so 230 00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:30.879 he'll never know that I was talking about him. But he doesn't date because 231 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:33.519 I think somehow he's gotten in his mind that if you date, somebody's got 232 00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:35.879 to be serious. It's like, no, go on a date. Just 233 00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:39.039 go on a date. You might never want to go on a date with 234 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:43.120 them again, but it doesn't just go on a date. And because I'd 235 00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.080 love to have him to have a partner of some sort, and I've said, 236 00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:50.240 Carson, don't be so afraid of dating and be intimidated. I said, 237 00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:56.320 there's a girl or a guy out there for you that you would love 238 00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:58.519 to have around to have a pizza with, to get up on a Saturday 239 00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:03.120 morning and make break breakfast with or to go on a walk with. Because 240 00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:09.080 having a partner is so to me, so joyful, such a big part 241 00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:11.440 of your life. I mean, Andrew is such a big part of your 242 00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:15.120 life. You really can't imagine not having Andrew around at this point in life. 243 00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:16.480 No, I could not imagine not having him around. But when I 244 00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:20.919 was Carson's age, I wasn't dating either, like I really was. But 245 00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:24.559 I like to be fair, I was out partying and I was going home 246 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.120 with guys and stuff like that dating but you were hooking whatever. Yeah, 247 00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:31.879 but I really wasn't dating like I wasn't. I don't think dating apps were 248 00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:35.440 a huge thing quite yet at that point. But I like went on a 249 00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:39.879 date here and there, but it just like wasn't my thing at that point 250 00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:41.600 in life. Like I was just I wanted to like go out and have 251 00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:46.600 fun, and I also was very focused on career stuff more so, and 252 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:52.320 so I just didn't I didn't put any focus into dating. But yeah, 253 00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:54.679 I mean I was still kind of seeing people. I had people. Oh, 254 00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.320 I get it. No, I totally get that. Yeah, Carson, 255 00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:02.360 I think really wants a date because we've talked about it. He doesn't 256 00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:04.240 like to talk seriously a lot of the time. He just doesn't that's very 257 00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:07.320 personal to him. And a year or so ago, we were driving that 258 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:10.600 long road trip to LA when he moved out there, and I said, 259 00:16:10.639 --> 00:16:11.679 you know, we talked about dating. He said, it's not as easy 260 00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:15.840 as you think. He said, I've been on some of the apps and 261 00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:18.519 it just doesn't work. And it was about six months ago. I think 262 00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:22.559 I told you he went on a date with a girl who he had canceled 263 00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:26.919 twice and he picked her up really late at night. She fell asleep in 264 00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:30.120 the movie theater and fell asleep on the way home, and she didn't speak 265 00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.960 much English, and it was a disaster. Yeah, And I thought that 266 00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:37.360 sucks because now that's a bad experience. It's kind of like if you go, 267 00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:41.399 I don't know, you go to the water park and you have a 268 00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:45.200 bad experience, you don't want to go there again. Go to the water 269 00:16:45.240 --> 00:16:47.799 park, you have a great time. You're like, I can't wait to 270 00:16:47.799 --> 00:16:52.600 come back to the water park. So anyway, what else can I end 271 00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:56.360 to that? Not a lot. I will say that Kevin attached a picture 272 00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:02.679 of you from the Real Space Needle Studio. Real space Needle in Seattle and 273 00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:07.839 that is really cool. So there's Mount Rainier in the background. Kevin, 274 00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:10.880 thanks for sending that along. And that is pretty much it for the Minnesota 275 00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:17.359 Goodbye. I appreciate all the emails.
