WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.040 I got a really nice email from a guy who's got a really cool last 2 00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:07.759 name. Taco is his last name Josh Taco Tcko, but it's pronounced just 3 00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:11.960 like Taco. So let's start off with his email on the Minnesota Goodbye and 4 00:00:12.039 --> 00:00:14.640 here we go, he writes, and he says, Dave, I know 5 00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:19.280 you're tired of hearing this, but you have affected many people over the years, 6 00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:25.519 especially me. I feel you are the OG influencer before influencer was a 7 00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:29.199 popular term like in today's society. In short, I've been listening to you 8 00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:33.799 since you came to Minnesota in ninety three when I was fifteen, and have 9 00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:36.719 ever since. I've enjoyed you your show, along with your life and family 10 00:00:36.759 --> 00:00:40.520 stories over the years, ones that hit home to me as your pilot adventure 11 00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:45.840 stories. It is what got me into aviation for myself. I started as 12 00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:50.399 a hobby and then progressed through certifications. I became an instructor and now it 13 00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:54.920 is my career. Two years ago I started flying for a small regional airline 14 00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:58.240 and now for a big airline. Let's just say it's the one painted like 15 00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:02.439 a big banana. Want to guess which airline that is? Jenny Oh a 16 00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:06.439 big banana spirit. Yeah, Okay, I was like, okay, I 17 00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:08.840 was thinking about the frontier has like animals on the wings, So I was 18 00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:11.640 thinking like just a banana was painted, Not like that. It looks like 19 00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:14.319 a whole bunch of Oh I get it. No, it's yeah, the 20 00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:17.760 big yellow one. Such an advancement from the small planes we started out in. 21 00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:21.359 Without your influence, I wouldn't be where I am today flying The quote 22 00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:23.439 big metal, I guess is what they call it in the airline industry. 23 00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:29.719 Thank you. Please never discount even however small you think it might be the 24 00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.959 role you play in others' lives. Okay, I'm gonna get cry. I'm 25 00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:36.239 gonna tear up here, Josh, with your reach over the years on the 26 00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:41.359 airways for what for that? It deserves a Lifetime Achievement award. Curious how 27 00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:46.239 you feel about people whom you've inspired or affected over the years. In closing, 28 00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:49.079 I want to do a sticker trade. I'll give you my address for 29 00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:53.879 a staff sticker, and I'll send you a pilot one my fiance and I 30 00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.879 created. That is he lives in Texas. Now. That's Josh. Taco 31 00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:02.519 Goods and good tail Wins and a dart Lick for good luck, and he 32 00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:06.359 shows him in the cockpit of the It looks like it seven thirty seven, 33 00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:08.120 but I'm not really sure. So, wow, Josh, that is so 34 00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:10.719 cool. There's a picture of Josh and I had my book signing a few 35 00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:14.919 years ago. As far as like being, you know, having an idea 36 00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:19.639 that our show or some of the things that I might have said or talked 37 00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:23.840 about over the years had an influence on people, I can't be more flattered. 38 00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.560 I mean, how could you you know, It's it's like having a 39 00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:30.159 kid tell you, Dad, I really appreciate that. I really when you 40 00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:35.800 told me this, this, this, I really appreciate that. Josh, 41 00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.039 God love you. I'm so glad you've done well. And if I had 42 00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:42.240 a little teeny tind of bit of inspiration in your life, it's an honor. 43 00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:45.560 I will say, you would have done wonderful things. Whether you ever 44 00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:49.879 listened to katiewb or not, I have no doubt. But it is really 45 00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:55.319 gratifying and humbling to hear that something that we said or did on the show 46 00:02:55.400 --> 00:03:00.360 made a difference in somebody's life. Yeah, super cool. I had a 47 00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:04.520 little speech with Carson the other day, and because you know, he's my 48 00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.680 main goal. All my other kids are doing great. I always have you 49 00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:08.759 know, if they need to, you know, to talk or whatever. 50 00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:14.960 I'm always there. But Carson has had an interesting up and down last few 51 00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.080 months. So you know that he was touring with Love and he was a 52 00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:21.960 tour assistant and he went to Asia. He was in Asia for five weeks, 53 00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:23.840 trip of a lifetime. He went with Lou to Florida. He went 54 00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:29.479 to with Love to Mexico. He toured with Lou. They did a show 55 00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:31.840 in Salt Lake City. He has worked on videos. He had to stand 56 00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:36.400 in for Love when they measured all where the lasers were and everything. So 57 00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:38.120 they said, Carson, stand on the stage. We're going to measure what 58 00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:44.240 the lasers need to be. So he was supposed to go to India with 59 00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:50.000 Loo's tour in a couple of weeks, and long story short, they canceled 60 00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:54.639 it and he didn't. There are him going okay, yeah, And I 61 00:03:54.719 --> 00:04:00.680 said, Carson, in your business, they're going to be ups and they're 62 00:04:00.719 --> 00:04:02.599 going to be downs, and this is a downtime. But I said, 63 00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:06.599 this is not the end of the path. If you never worked with Love 64 00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:11.479 again, you've got experience you'll go find somebody else to work with. And 65 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.759 he was very down, very down, and then he called the other night 66 00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:16.879 and he said, guess what, I'm back on the Love Tour. I'm 67 00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:21.480 going to be going to India with Love. And I took that moment to 68 00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:25.560 say, there are going to be times in your life where you're down and 69 00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:28.120 you don't think it's going to get any better, and then all of a 70 00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:32.439 sudden, boom, it does. Yeah. And that's not just in your 71 00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.639 life, Carson, that's in anybody's life. And I said, I've had 72 00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:40.560 my moments where it's down and it's like, oh, whether it's a breakup 73 00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:45.560 with somebody that you love, or you lose your job, or you get 74 00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:49.439 this scolded at work or unfairly treated by something, there's going to be And 75 00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:53.519 I said, Carson, remember when I said that in my book, No 76 00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:57.399 Hill Goes Up Forever. And of course he didn't remember it, but it 77 00:04:57.439 --> 00:05:00.720 was my lesson back in boy Scouts when we were high, and I said, 78 00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:02.959 God, when is this hill gonna fucking stop? This hill just keeps 79 00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:05.720 going up, and you'd get to what they call a false summit, and 80 00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:09.560 you'd be hiking toward this summit you know what a false summit is, right, 81 00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:13.560 And you think the summit is like the next till you're looking at you 82 00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:15.040 get to the top and you realize, oh my god, I'm only halfway, 83 00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:17.360 but no hill goes up forever. And I said, it's the same 84 00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:21.360 thing in life cars, And so I'm glad that there's things that we can 85 00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:25.639 say on this show. And Jenny says them too, and sometimes you don't 86 00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:29.759 even know you're saying them or doing them. But I always said the DJs 87 00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:32.360 are the original influencers, and I think especially on a show like ours, 88 00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:35.680 where we tell stories about our lives. Yeah, and a lot of DJs 89 00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:39.040 don't do that. A lot of DJ's talk about how cool they are, 90 00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:42.399 and a lot of DJs do silly, silly, wacky stuff. Well, 91 00:05:42.399 --> 00:05:45.360 we can't talk about how cool we are because we're not cool. I'm just 92 00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:47.839 kidding. No, it's true, we're not We're far from cool. I'm 93 00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:51.560 going to a Magic convention in two weeks, so we're far from cool. 94 00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:56.560 Thank you, Josh. Moving on to the next email, This one serious. 95 00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:00.519 Hold on, I'm gonna scroll around here a little bit. That is 96 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.439 a naughty Tuesday, So we're gonna save that for another time. This one 97 00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:11.560 basically reiterates the story that Jenny was sharing earlier this morning about the woman who 98 00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:16.120 had a nine year old daughter who got a Walmart version of the Stanley thermos 99 00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:20.439 for Christmas and she took it to school and the other girls immediately let her 100 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:25.040 know that it was not a Stanley Thermos. So she bought her daughter the 101 00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:29.560 Stanley Tumbler. And basically this is the text message, Facebook version. I'll 102 00:06:29.560 --> 00:06:32.279 read it to you. My daughter is getting bullied at school because she has 103 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:35.959 a knockoff Stanley tumbler. The other girls at school all have real ones, 104 00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:40.480 including the new pink one. They're making fun of my daughter because my husband 105 00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:43.680 and I got her a generic bottle from Walmart. I told my husband we 106 00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.920 should go and buy a real one so the teasing will stop. He says 107 00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:48.639 we should not. My husband thinks our daughter needs to grow thick skin. 108 00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:51.800 He says, our family can't be intimidated by a bunch of nine and ten 109 00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:57.040 year old girls. I think buying my daughter is real Stanley will make things 110 00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:00.480 easier for her. He says. She needs to learn that life is sometimes 111 00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:02.759 not easy. What would you do if you were us? Good question? 112 00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:06.319 I decided I would have bought her a Tumblr because let her be part of 113 00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:11.120 the cool crowd, you know, let her enjoy that and show off for 114 00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:13.879 Stanley Tumber Tumblr. And I told the story when I was a kid, 115 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:16.560 I couldn't afford Adidas and some kid pointed out that I wasn't wearing Adidas and 116 00:07:16.600 --> 00:07:20.000 I felt really stupid and small and I never forgot that. That was in 117 00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:26.879 ninth grade. So let your daughter enjoy that. Yeah, I struggle with 118 00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:30.639 it just because like I didn't have the option to get that. My parents 119 00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:32.800 had no spare money. Ever, Like when I wanted anything in life, 120 00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:34.839 I had to get a job, which is why I've been working since I 121 00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:40.399 was about eleven years old. But so I like struggle with that because I 122 00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:44.680 think I learned a lot from the way I was raised, and to just 123 00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:48.079 give in even though you have the money is like hard for me because you 124 00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:50.439 know, I didn't have that option growing up, and I think I became 125 00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:54.839 the person I am because I had to work for everything that I got. 126 00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:58.199 You know, yep, true, No, that's it's a very good lesson, 127 00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:01.079 there's no question. But sometimes it's like, yeah, you want to 128 00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:03.920 give him a little short cut. I don't know. My kids were so 129 00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:05.639 spoiled. It's like Carson always had, like, you know, the cool 130 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:11.279 sneakers, and Alison always had the Hollister top or whatever. So but you 131 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:13.639 know what, I could afford it, and I was very blessed to be 132 00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:16.639 able to afford it. Not all, not all families can remember the other 133 00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:20.879 day we were talking about awkward job interviews. Well, Renita writes in and 134 00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:24.839 she says this. She says, I was in a job interview and the 135 00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.279 creepy old guy interviewing me literally asked if I was Hispanic. In the middle 136 00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:31.920 of the interview, I said no, WTF. Apparently he only called me 137 00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:33.960 in for the interview because he thought I was Hispanic due to my last name, 138 00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:37.720 which I got from my amazing Mexican husband. But I am a super 139 00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:43.279 white Minnesota accent and all. He then proceeded to tell me how the person 140 00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:48.159 previously in the role was an Hispanic women woman and she did everything for him. 141 00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:52.879 I started to feel so extremely inappropriate with this, and he went on 142 00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:56.639 and on about this woman, and it became a parent that she was servicing 143 00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:01.039 him in ways that went beyond work duties. Gross. Oh, the woman's 144 00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:05.279 husband made her quit and they moved out of state. How do I know 145 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:09.679 this because mister creeper told me he went on and on about her so sadly 146 00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:11.720 like he was lost without her. I walked out of the building with my 147 00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:16.159 head spinning and also slightly concerned for the woman who moved away because this guy 148 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:22.519 was clearly obsessed. Wow that they had to move away to get away from 149 00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.159 this creeper. Yeah, amazing. Wow. Yikes. I'm assuming Rinita didn't 150 00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:28.480 get the job and or didn't take it. If she did get it, 151 00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:33.159 apparently not. No, apparently not. Dave, listened to yesterday's show. 152 00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:35.720 You were talking about what you were dared to do. Didn't your morning show 153 00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.240 broadcast live from a strip club one time? And have Chris Go lick a 154 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.600 stripper pole? Yes? Yes, it was back in the intern John days. 155 00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.679 He went down to the voo and he licked a stripper pole because we 156 00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:50.679 got in early and there was a couple of strippers that came in early, 157 00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:54.720 and Chris Go licked the stripper pole. Rachel, your memory serves you right, 158 00:09:54.840 --> 00:10:01.320 and his tongue fell off. Eh, it's not true, Jenny, 159 00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:03.799 really far off. Sometimes I think you're not even listening to me. I 160 00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:07.159 heard, but I didn't know if there was more of a punchline, so 161 00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:09.759 I was waiting for it. No, that's as funny as I get. 162 00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:13.799 Next one needs some advice. I'm a regular writer. I am forty five 163 00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:16.759 years old. I've never been married. For contacts, I've been with my 164 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:20.360 boyfriend for about four years, lived together year and a half. My boyfriend 165 00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:22.960 said, I am never gonna get married. I don't want to get married. 166 00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:26.720 He's never been married, nor is he a child of divorce. His 167 00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:28.840 parents are still married. Now, I'm not sure if this is a relationship 168 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.399 I should stay in. Remember, she's forty five, never been married. 169 00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:35.240 I'm not sure if I should marry If I would marry him now, even 170 00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:39.240 if he asked me, but I know it's now not a possibility. I'm 171 00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:43.320 wondering if I should stay in the relationship. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 172 00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.200 I'm confused she wants to get married or she doesn't care anymore. No, 173 00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:52.120 she seems to want to get married, but he says we're never going 174 00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:56.240 to get married. I would dig a little bit deeper and find out why. 175 00:10:56.759 --> 00:11:00.559 Is it? Because he's got his eye on somebody else as he doesn't 176 00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:03.120 take you seriously because he has money and he doesn't want to lose his money 177 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:07.120 if something goes wrong with the marriage. And that's a good point too, 178 00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:11.360 so I would say try to dig a little bit deeper and say why if 179 00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:15.720 he really deeply loves you. A lot of people don't get married because they 180 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:18.480 don't feel that they need to. There's advantages in being married, for sure, 181 00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:22.200 but I think that you know, maybe if you've got some experience with 182 00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.480 this one and you are not married and you're perfectly happy. I know somebody 183 00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:30.200 right now. She's about my age. She found what I thought was her 184 00:11:30.279 --> 00:11:35.399 soulmate fifteen twenty years ago, and she got married at about age thirty five 185 00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.039 or forty, and she seemed very happy. We don't talk that often, 186 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:43.200 but she texted me over Christmas and she said, I am so tired of 187 00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:48.519 fighting about things. I wish i'd stayed single. I was very happy single. 188 00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:52.320 And I'm like, wow, that's really interesting that she wishes that she'd 189 00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:56.840 stayed single after twenty or so years of marriage. I mean, yeah, 190 00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.759 it's hard to say. I feel like I can't ever com on like marriage 191 00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:05.399 of twenty years because I don't have that experience under my belt, and I 192 00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:07.799 have no idea what can happen? You know, it's a good point. 193 00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:11.480 This one is, well, that's for off the air, so I will 194 00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:15.799 read that one off the air. It's about something we did yesterday, Dave 195 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.320 and Jenny and Drake. I get a bit idea of and listening to the 196 00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:24.000 I really loved listening to the day's old sushi bit all week, even though 197 00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:26.480 Jenny chicked out at the end. It gave me an idea for a twist 198 00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.840 that you could do on this bit going forward. You could spend a lot 199 00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:33.120 of time building up the idea that Jenny or Drake could earn money by eating 200 00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:37.399 old Culver's or Taco Bell, just like the sushi bit, but this time 201 00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:41.320 Jenny and Drake would immediately pocket the ten dollars or the lowest money value on 202 00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:46.159 day one and enjoy the delicious free meal, thus foiling Dave. Day would 203 00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:50.679 be out ten dollars in the cost of the meal. If the bit were 204 00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:54.039 recurring, but Dave never figured out he's being had until it was too late. 205 00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:58.039 It could give the audience a chuckle. Sonya just a thought, she 206 00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.360 says, Keep up the good work. Sonya, I will say, you 207 00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:03.320 should have sent that email to just Jenny, and he's going to say, 208 00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:07.440 because how he knows? Now we know, but that's really creative. You 209 00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:11.039 should be a morning show producer. So I thought about eating it the first 210 00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:13.480 day, just to like guarantee I got that ten dollars, But me being 211 00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:16.960 greedy, was like, I can wait till Wednesday. I'll at least get 212 00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:20.679 thirty, and then I got in my head about it and didn't want to 213 00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:22.879 do it by Wednesday. That was the most asked question yesterday. I answered 214 00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:26.679 probably thirty different text messages, DMS, and phone calls texts from friends. 215 00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.080 Did Jenny eat the sushi? Know? Tell the story about in case you 216 00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:33.639 don't know it, Jenny was going to eat sushi and get paid for eating 217 00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:35.679 three day old sushi. Yeah, but you decided no. I decided no 218 00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.480 because I think it was Tuesday afternoon. I just started thinking about it and 219 00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:43.639 all the things that could go wrong, and thirty dollars was not worth making 220 00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:48.559 thirty dollars from eating bad sushi versus me potentially ending up in urgent care because 221 00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:52.159 I have food poisoning or other kinds of sickness. And then I really because 222 00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:54.440 I have anxiety, my brain goes to like the worst possible scenario. A 223 00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:58.759 lot of times I thought I would get some brain parasite and it would literally 224 00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:01.080 like kill me or something like. That's how far my brain went at that 225 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:05.799 point that I got too scared and I texted Dave and I said, I 226 00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:09.759 don't think I can do this and mentally yeah, And I told Jenny, 227 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:11.279 I said, that's fine. I said, I'm not gonna pressure you to 228 00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:15.639 do anything. I mean, we'll peer pressure each other a little bit, 229 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:18.399 but we're you know, I'm not gonna ask you to be like, come 230 00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:22.399 on, Jenny, it's just a flesh eating back to her. You don't 231 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:24.480 worry about it. Yeah, next one, and Sarah says, hey, 232 00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:28.039 there, love the show. I write in occasionally and text a fair amount 233 00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:30.840 too. I appreciate that Sarah. I wanted to write in about the people 234 00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:33.679 complaining about the ads in the middle of the podcast. I'm sure you need 235 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:37.120 to promote the iHeartRadio app, and I do use that to listen to the 236 00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:41.720 show, But for the podcast, I listened to it through the Apple podcast 237 00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:46.879 app, and I have no issues with the podcast. The commercials play at 238 00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:50.279 the beginning and the end like normal. I'm not sure if there's something like 239 00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:54.159 this for Android users, but hopefully this will help some people keep up the 240 00:14:54.159 --> 00:15:01.080 great work Dart Comma Lick period. Thank you, Sarah. Yeah, I 241 00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:03.519 mean, we definitely love the iHeartRadio app, and well, of course we're 242 00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:07.759 encouraged to encourage you to download it. I think it's a great app. 243 00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:11.240 But if they can't get their shit together and they have that jump up in 244 00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:15.399 the middle of the podcast, then I say go to the Apple podcast app. 245 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:18.240 You know, seriously, if they if they start to see that effect, 246 00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:20.960 then fuck them. They got to figure out how to get their act 247 00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:24.360 together, because if Apple has figured out how to do it, then certainly 248 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:26.279 Iheartradios has got to figure out how to do it because we are I mean, 249 00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:33.360 seriously, the iHeartRadio app is so huge and people love it because there 250 00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:37.480 are radio stations on there, so we not only have the music in the 251 00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:41.480 podcast, we're the only app that has radio station podcasts. So you can 252 00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:45.519 listen to this show. You can listen to Elvis Duran, you can listen 253 00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:48.240 to Mojo, you can listen to John Jay and Rich. You can listen 254 00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:52.080 to e White, who does the morning show in Salt Lake City. Don't 255 00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:54.519 I mean, don't listen to any of these people sell it, but you 256 00:15:54.559 --> 00:16:00.679 could if you wanted to. So it is a really cool app Another one, 257 00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:03.799 no to that one. Okay, here's one that says Minnesota Goodbye. 258 00:16:06.440 --> 00:16:10.600 It goes back to the other day. I was talking about Chase, my 259 00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:14.639 son, and visiting him after he has the baby. And you probably heard 260 00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:18.039 this conversation. But I want to go see Chase and his wife Matti when 261 00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:22.120 they have a baby in March, and should I go immediately, like the 262 00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:23.440 day after, or should I wait a couple of weeks? And there were 263 00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:29.440 strong arguments on both sides. So this text goes It's a long email and 264 00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:32.320 I probably won't read all of it. I probably spent way too much time 265 00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:34.799 thinking about this story while I was shoveling, But in my defense, I 266 00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:37.480 do have a long driveway. I love that. I think you should wait 267 00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:40.759 a few weeks to visit them, and take the money that you were going 268 00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:44.559 to spend on a flight in hotel and send them a big grub Hub door 269 00:16:44.679 --> 00:16:48.919 Dash gift card. Here's why all the things that you did to help Allison 270 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:52.039 with her babies, Maddie will have her own people down the street that can 271 00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:55.240 provide that kind of support. She does have her parents there, she will 272 00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:59.159 be breastfeeding every hour or two and may just want to have the baby napping 273 00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:02.799 on her skin, chest, skin to skin, even when not nursing. 274 00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:06.440 I felt trapped in my room when my mother in law came to visit because 275 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:10.119 I couldn't sit on the couch with my boobs out, especially like when I 276 00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:14.079 was getting the hang of nursing, which is hard by the way, I 277 00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:18.599 felt self conscious how my mother in law get constipation, pills or whatever else 278 00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:22.480 I needed to take care of my body. Compared to even five years ago, 279 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:25.839 almost everything can be delivered right to your door within an hour or two. 280 00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:29.799 Chase can do drive up, so they don't need me there to run 281 00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:33.319 down to the I don't know the Perkins did get breakfast, yeah, or 282 00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:38.880 to Dunkin Donuts. They may feel more protective than they even thought they would 283 00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:44.119 with the germs that people bring in. Also, it's not super fun to 284 00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:48.279 have people hold your newborn. There really isn't anything to talk about for the 285 00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:51.200 first week or two other than the birth story, which Mattie may or may 286 00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:53.519 not be comfortable telling details. After a few weeks. They can tell funny 287 00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:56.920 stories about a diaper blowout or other things when you visit. That makes fun 288 00:17:56.960 --> 00:18:02.799 conversation even if you're not holding the baby. Babies have unexpected timing to plan 289 00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:07.200 visit gives everyone something to plan on and look forward to. Are Mattie's parents' 290 00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:12.279 first time grandparents That might affect how they are feeling interacting Giving birth and postpartum 291 00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:17.799 makes you super emotionally and physically vulnerable, and I felt the most comfortable with 292 00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:22.720 just my husband around. Maybe make a video story with a video message about 293 00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:27.039 how when Chase was born or something. You can send it as here as 294 00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:30.359 you as soon as your labor is started. When you visit, be prepared 295 00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:33.119 to COVID test the day you fly, and wear a mask from the time 296 00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:36.839 you leave your house to the time you get into rental car, even just 297 00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:41.400 to ease their mind. Imagine any kind of respiratory illness in those tiny little 298 00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:45.680 navel pat nasal passages really is great. You want to be there for Chase. 299 00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.960 New dads need support too. I hope that you have a joyful and 300 00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:52.839 healthy delivery. Thank you very much. They'd said, don't say their names, 301 00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:56.359 so I will not. Those are really good points. Yeah, very 302 00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:59.720 good points, and I think that's what I'm leaning toward. I asked Chase 303 00:18:59.759 --> 00:19:00.720 what I do and he said, whatever you want, Dad, which I'm 304 00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:03.160 like, that's so Chase, but I think I probably will wait a couple 305 00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:06.440 of weeks. We got to wrap up, Dave, all right, well, 306 00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:11.119 wrap up, We are done. Send your emails to Ryan's show at 307 00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:15.319 KDWB dot com.
