00:00:01.280 --> 00:00:06.759
Transparency. We usually try to read
emails before we put them on the podcast,

2
00:00:07.519 --> 00:00:10.880
because sometimes they get a little bit
dark, or sometimes they get a

3
00:00:10.919 --> 00:00:14.240
little bit personal, or they'll ask
a question that we don't really want to

4
00:00:14.279 --> 00:00:18.679
answer, or sometimes it's just not
meant for the radio. But guess what,

5
00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:23.399
Jenny, I'm not pre read shit
today, not reprere. I don't

6
00:00:23.440 --> 00:00:26.679
know what I'm going to get into. Hello'll what a big week for the

7
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:29.239
show. Sad to see Fallon go, but I'm excited to see Jenny and

8
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:33.840
Drake shine even more than they already
do. Me too, I mean,

9
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:38.159
seriously, we've had such a great
time on the show this morning, and

10
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:44.799
I'm My only concern is Jenny being
overworked. And I told Susan about this

11
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:47.359
last night. I said, if
Jenny gets to the point where she is

12
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:51.359
so overworked and drained, She's going
to come in one day and say I'm

13
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:55.359
going to go work at the Rocky
Mountain Chocolate factory at Mall of America and

14
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:58.200
she won't come in anymore. I
did so much chocolate and then I have

15
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:02.799
a stomach ache even more than I
have here. Oh gosh, so how

16
00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:06.840
are you doing? Tell us like
somewhat candidly without getting serious, like how

17
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:08.840
are you doing with your I mean, you have a personal life, you

18
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:11.560
got a boyfriend, you got a
dog sitting thing on the side, that's

19
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.560
your side hustle, and you love
your dogs. But at the same time,

20
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:18.439
I don't want you to come in
every morning going, uh man,

21
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:22.920
this is too much. Yeah.
No, I mean, I, like

22
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:27.599
full honesty, have had like a
few moments of feeling very very stressed.

23
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:30.400
And I've never experienced a stress headache
before, and I did for the first

24
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:36.319
time last week, and that was
like not fun because it made me actually

25
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:38.079
like nauseous, and I was like, this is really fucking weird. I've

26
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:45.519
never experienced this before because I just
I'm always thinking of things to do,

27
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:49.640
things that need to get done,
whatever, and I just felt very overwhelmed.

28
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:53.400
So because I mean, we did
know last week. Obviously we revealed

29
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.400
this yesterday, but we found out
last week that all of these changes were

30
00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:00.480
happening. So there were moments of
like, I was very overwhelmed. I'm

31
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:07.239
doing fine right now. I mean, there's definitely some things I'm gonna need

32
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:09.000
to talk to Drake about having him
help me out a little bit more.

33
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:13.840
You need to do that, yeah, but I'm doing fine right now,

34
00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:16.360
just trying to like I don't know. I mean, it's a lot of

35
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:21.520
mindset stuff. You just gotta stay
positive, like change is hard for everyone.

36
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:23.240
Like I said, I love Fallen
and I'm like sad to not have

37
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:27.479
her on the show, but I'm
also really really excited for their show and

38
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.639
what they're going to do. So
it's like a weird mixture of like I'm

39
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:35.039
sad selfishly, but like also like
good for her to like move on and

40
00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:38.240
have her own show and stuff.
It really was like it's a good thing.

41
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:40.000
And people said, somebody wrote last
night. They said why, and

42
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:46.039
we said, well, because there's
a lot of you know, like in

43
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:49.840
radio. We've talked about this.
I don't want to get too deep into

44
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:53.680
it, but radio for music is
still a very valid thing where the Twin

45
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:58.800
Cities number one hit music station.
At the same time, people want companionship

46
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:02.719
more and more from rad and so
we thought, we've got two people on

47
00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:08.120
KWB at least that can do a
show like this. I'm one and Fallon

48
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:13.879
is the other. So that's why
Fallon is on in the afternoon to bring

49
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:17.159
more I don't know, content,
personality, connection to the afternoon show.

50
00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:22.000
Ye Zach is a music kind of
a guy, and he was definitely a

51
00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:24.680
TikTok kind of a guy, but
Fallon will bring a whole new connection thing

52
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:28.199
to it, and so kind of
that's what radio was headed for. In

53
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:31.000
the afternoon. She goes on to
say, I have been and continued to

54
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:35.280
be grateful to hear you. Also
speaks so candidly about mental and emotional health.

55
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:39.800
I related deeply to Jenny's shares about
anxiety as it used to be and

56
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:44.439
still is from time to time a
part of my daily life. One thing

57
00:03:44.520 --> 00:03:46.879
that has made a huge impact for
me has been breathwork. We even this

58
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:52.360
into short or longer session through my
week. I explained breathwork as meditation for

59
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:57.759
those who can't meditate. I started
my practice in twenty eighteen to twenty twenty,

60
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:03.560
was certified as a trauma inform to
breathwork facilitate or interesting Okay, not

61
00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:08.199
sure if it's something you tried or
would be interested in, but maybe supportive

62
00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:11.000
to you. You have questions or
want to try a session, I'd love

63
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:14.360
to givet a session to you.
This offer goes to Jenny everybody else on

64
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:16.240
the show. If you feel called
to it. Keep doing what you're doing.

65
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:18.800
So grateful you have a local show
that crushes it. From Megan,

66
00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:24.120
I'm gonna put this out there and
we'll talk about this, you know,

67
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:26.519
off the podcast, but maybe we
should get Megan on the show. I'll

68
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:29.480
bet a lot of people if we
talk to Megan for three and a half

69
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.079
minutes one morning about breathwork. I'm
going to forward this to you, Jenny,

70
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:38.480
and maybe we can get Megan on
the show because I don't know much

71
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:41.720
about breathwork and what you do,
but that could be really valuable for somebody

72
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:46.439
who's like got stress and anxiety.
So email forwarded. Let's go to the

73
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:53.000
next one. No, not interested. Like I said, I have not

74
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:58.680
pre read these, So hello Dave, Ryan crew. Congrats on the continued

75
00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:03.000
success of the show and the individual
success you are keep achieving. As a

76
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:06.959
longtime listener, I appreciate your ability
to navigate change, seeing it as a

77
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:12.439
necessary part of innovation and a long
term investment. Congrats to Fallon and Jenny.

78
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:15.360
I also want to share that is
a long time listener about nineteen years.

79
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:20.759
It's really easy for familiarity to create
comfort. Listening to you all oddly

80
00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:25.759
provides me a sense of comfort when
I need it. You're familiar. I

81
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:28.920
know about your families, we have
a history. I love it because I

82
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:32.079
feel so close to you in almost
twenty years. The announcement about Fallon felt

83
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:35.040
a bit strange today. It's obviously
a great opportunity for her and Jenny,

84
00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:40.800
but I can't help but feel it
all seemed a bit forced. It was

85
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:45.720
odd hearing Fallon quickly summarized her experience
on the morning show as it's been awesome,

86
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.240
and also how she randomly wrapped up
her time and you all said goodbye

87
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:54.480
in the seven o'clock hour. I
will say that we didn't have a rule

88
00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:57.800
book for how to handle it.
We didn't have you know, there was

89
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:00.959
nothing that was like, here's how
you do it. I thought that we

90
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:04.639
did a good job. We talked
about it for twenty minutes, and it

91
00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:11.519
wasn't as if Fallen was saying goodbye
forever. Right, she is moving to

92
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:14.959
the afternoon show, and I'm sure
she'll make guest appearances back on the show.

93
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:17.800
So it wasn't going to be a
big, morose kind of a sad

94
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:21.759
thing. And plus we're really bad
at sad because once it turns, something

95
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:29.240
turned sad one of us will make
a really inappropriate joke. So I you

96
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:30.120
know, like I said, there
was no rule book on how to make

97
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.279
the announcement, but I thought we
did the best we could. She did

98
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:36.920
also have to go work like another
shift during the day, so I know,

99
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:40.399
like she had jumped off the show
kind of after we had done the

100
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:45.279
conversation, but like it was like
we had her on until the moment we

101
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:47.360
announced it because we didn't want anyone
to be like, well, where's Falon

102
00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:50.279
like whatever, and so once we
announced it, it was like, Okay,

103
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:54.279
well this is the change happening.
And now Fallen has to also go

104
00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:57.319
work in afternoon shift, so we're
gonna let her get up the morning show

105
00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:00.319
this morning for the rest of the
morning, so she's not doing like a

106
00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:05.519
complete double shift for today. Yes, they say all that said, I'm

107
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:09.360
going to keep listening to the morning
show like I always do. Bonus for

108
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:14.040
me and katwb that now they've secured
my listenership twice a day. Smart move,

109
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:15.759
And honestly, I think that was
a big part of it was,

110
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:23.319
you know, it was like a
business programming decision. Let's see, hey,

111
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:27.920
this is from Dan the smart ass
Dan's the one who we have on

112
00:07:27.959 --> 00:07:32.000
the show. And you might recognize
Dan's voice because Dan, he's on probably

113
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:35.439
every Friday, on no phone screen
or Friday. He says, Hey,

114
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:40.319
my mostly friends, Dan here from
Apple Valley. I want to say that

115
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:44.279
Dave, yes, you're on AARP, doesn't mean that you're worthless and really

116
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:46.519
old. It's more the wrinkles on
your face. L L shut up,

117
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:50.639
Dan, Sincerely your friend, Daniel. We love Dan all right. Next

118
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:57.319
one, Minnesota. Goodbye, Dave. Jenny Drake. I'm sure you'll be

119
00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:03.319
flooded with Fallon questions, so I'll
just add another one on. I missed

120
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:07.000
the chemistry of you altogether. I'm
super happy for Fallon and love that I'll

121
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:11.800
get to hear Jenny even more.
How Come we didn't get much of a

122
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:15.839
warning she was leaving. It felt
so sudden, and, to be honest,

123
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.439
kind of weird. Maybe I'm being
dramatic, but the news just hit

124
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:22.360
me hard this morning. Some of
us don't deal well with change, and

125
00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:26.000
we need time to process. I
hope this doesn't come across as harsh.

126
00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:28.839
I still love you and appreciate all
your hard work. I think again,

127
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:35.120
I'll go back to Jessica that there's
no rule book for I mean, if

128
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.440
you announced it a month in advance, is that the way to do it.

129
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:41.080
I was gonna say, I don't. I don't. I've never worked

130
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:45.480
I've only worked really at this radio
station in City ninety seven, very briefly,

131
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:50.480
but I've never worked where someone left
the show to still be on the

132
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:54.320
station just like today. Nope.
So I feel like had Fallon been announcing

133
00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:58.840
that she was moving to New York
to go host a show out there or

134
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.519
something, we would have done like
a tribute of all kinds of things,

135
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:05.080
we probably did like all the best
funny bits and funny songs. Yeah,

136
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:09.399
but it was just a little bit
different because she's she's still here. It

137
00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:11.759
just was like announced that, like
now she has her own show and she'll

138
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:15.559
be doing it at a different time. But I know that probably hasn't really

139
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:16.799
giving you all the answer to you
on here. I mean, if I

140
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:20.240
was going to do it again,
I might do it a little bit differently

141
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:22.600
and say and play this and this
and this. But I think because it

142
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:28.679
did happen suddenly and we didn't really
get a chance to sit back and think

143
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:31.440
about how we wanted to do it. I think we did a good job,

144
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:35.919
and Foulon did a good job,
and listeners did a good job of

145
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.600
listening to find out what it was
all about. But if I was going

146
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.399
to do it again, maybe I
would change it up a little bit.

147
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.919
But like I said, there's no
there's no set of rules on how to

148
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:50.919
do it. So next, one
random question for you this morning. What's

149
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:54.000
the time in life when you thought, man, I must really love my

150
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:58.279
partner, and man, I really
love my partner, My man, I

151
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:03.240
really love him. Was last night
my husband burned his lower back work in

152
00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:07.039
construction. Picture of burn the exact
size and shape as an exhaust pipe on

153
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:11.039
his back. I was changing his
band aid last night. I was picking

154
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:16.120
off the old dead skin that was
dirty. I was like, holy shit,

155
00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:20.000
you're lucky. I love you,
my man, I really love him.

156
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:24.320
Was after my son was born.
I had to be put under and

157
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:28.080
sometimes when you have surgery under stomach, it's super painful to lift your arms,

158
00:10:28.559 --> 00:10:31.120
so I couldn't wash my hair.
I sat in the hospital shower on

159
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:35.080
a chair, crying in pain while
my husband shampooed, condition and brush my

160
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:39.320
hair. I knew I loved him, but that was a moment where I

161
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:43.399
was like, damn, I really
love him. It's one of my favorite

162
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:50.320
memories about him. I really like
that. I would say, that's a

163
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:52.679
hard one. I think there's been
a lot of moments. I know that

164
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:58.039
I was going through something really awful
tenish years ago and I said, I

165
00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:00.120
just need you to hold me.
I just needed to lay down and I

166
00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:03.919
need you to hold me. And
I think that and she did, And

167
00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:07.799
I think that was one of the
times where I said I really love her.

168
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:11.639
Do you have one with Andrew?
I have those moments very frequently,

169
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:16.240
so I couldn't recall the first time
that that's ever happened. But I do

170
00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:18.120
know that there's moments where I look
at him and I'm just like, holy

171
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:22.919
shit, I really love him.
But one specifically, I think it was

172
00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:28.279
like, honestly, it was after
Steve was let go and I was very

173
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:31.840
overwhelmed, and I just you had
to not only miss Steve, but also

174
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:35.639
would just do all of Steve's duties. Yeah, And all of a sudden,

175
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:39.039
I was getting thrown onto all these
extra segments. And I think specifically

176
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:43.039
that week, we were writing a
children's book or something, and I had

177
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:45.519
like twenty other things happening that day, and then I knew I still had

178
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:48.399
to write like a children's book to
present on the show the next day,

179
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:56.799
and so I felt so overwhelmed.
And Andrew had he had left a little

180
00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:00.799
like sorry, I got distracted because
I'm nervous that that has been playing the

181
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:05.000
whole time. Let me check,
how is the girlfriend crazy? It wasn't.

182
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:07.879
It wasn't. Sorry, I saw
that, and I got so nervous.

183
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.240
Okay, yeah, no kidding,
Okay, continue, where were you?

184
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:16.480
Yes, basic audio error. And
while I was at living in my

185
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.399
apartment by myself, Andrew left like
a little package of nice things at my

186
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:24.919
apartment which included like some cold brew
and then like a gift card to Target

187
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:28.320
or something just like a couple like
sweet things. And I'm not really a

188
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:31.320
gift person, like that's not my
love language. But it was one of

189
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:33.120
the nicest moments where he went out
of his way. He lived in Saint

190
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:37.080
Paul still at the time. I
was in Minneapolis, and he went out

191
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:39.679
of his way to leave me a
little nice note and care package basically because

192
00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:43.519
I was very overwhelmed at the time. That is a really interesting thing.

193
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:48.120
You say, what is your your
love language? Is presence. No,

194
00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:52.399
it's it's not gifts so much.
Mine is more quality time and words of

195
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:56.600
affirmation. Those are my top two. Gifts have never really been my thing.

196
00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:01.000
Okay, as I've gotten older,
I am more of a I like

197
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:03.559
to give gifts a little bit more
than I need to. But it's not

198
00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:09.320
really my love language of like I
want gifts from my boyfriend. That's I'm

199
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.879
the same way as you. I'm
not a gift person. I appreciate them.

200
00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:15.559
I think they're very sweet. I
guess because I'm like at a point

201
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:18.679
in my life where I don't want
more things. I'm trying to get rid

202
00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:22.360
of things. But I'm my own
worst enemy because I ordered things in the

203
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:28.799
mail. I think my love language
is gratitude and I just really like,

204
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:31.360
for example, like when somebody goes
and stays at my house in Colorado,

205
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:35.639
I just want to know they're having
a great time. They don't have to

206
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:37.879
call me and kiss my ass and
go Dave, thank you, thank you,

207
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:41.639
thank you, thank you. But
I just appreciate them saying thank you,

208
00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:45.480
we're having a great time. Or
if I take somebody flying, I

209
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:48.720
don't expect them to buy me like
a basket of wine. And cheese.

210
00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:50.840
That's not it. I just want
to know that they had a great time.

211
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:56.720
Yeah. And so sometimes when I
do something nice for somebody and I

212
00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:00.679
don't get the gratitude, I'm like, oh, well, that's kind of

213
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:05.039
my love language. So all right, last one, this email for you,

214
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:07.559
Dave. Oh it's not for the
Minnesota goodbye. So anyway, we're

215
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:09.799
gonna skip that one and not do
that one on the Minnesota goodbye. So

216
00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:15.840
we will pass that one, and
I think then that is it for the

217
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:18.840
Minnesota Goodbye. Have a great day. Send your emails to Ryan Show at
