WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:05.080
Well, we have an interesting Minnesota
goodbye today and we're gonna talk about Drake

2
00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:08.919
and leaving the show because this is
I don't know. I've always prided this

3
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:14.679
up, the fact that we're pretty
open and honest with you and things happen

4
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:20.640
on the show. Okay, I'll
give you an example. Steve was he

5
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.879
was laid off from the show because
we had budget cuts and we love Steve.

6
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:29.519
We didn't want to see Steve go. And I'm gonna go ahead and

7
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:31.960
jump in. I'm gonna go ahead
and take credit for a couple of times

8
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:36.280
they said we need to cut budgets, what about Steve? And I said,

9
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:40.679
no, you cannot cut Steve.
Okay, next time budget cuts rolls

10
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:44.200
around, we need to cut budgets, who can we cut? Can we

11
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:47.439
cut Steve? I said, no, you can't cut Steve. Finally,

12
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:50.479
they did it without asking me because
they needed to cut and they didn't give

13
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:54.159
me a say. And that's honest, it's the truth. And we missed

14
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:57.679
Steve and we love Steve. And
you know, Steve is just such a

15
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.479
He's just such you know Steve too. He was a smart ass, He

16
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:06.400
was funny, He could take the
tension out of any moment, and he

17
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:08.879
was let go and not let go. He didn't do anything wrong. They

18
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:12.079
just said, find a place in
the budget where we can save this amount

19
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:15.319
of money, and they said,
okay here. It is kind of the

20
00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:19.480
same with Tina. I mean Tina, we love Tina, and I know

21
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:25.239
that they purposely looked past Tina many
times until they couldn't anymore. Does that

22
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:30.920
make sense, Yeah, I mean
her position around the country basically wasn't existing

23
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.120
in most markets anymore, and they
did keep her around like much longer than

24
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:38.840
other markets that had that similar position, and that person was gotten rid of.

25
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:42.439
There have been other people in the
show who have left. I mean

26
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:45.959
Angie Taylor left for a bigger show, not a bigger show. She left

27
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.560
for another show, I'm not going
to say a bigger show. And now

28
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:52.239
she's got her own big radio show
years later. I mean she's been gone

29
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:56.359
twenty years. Corey Foley left because
she just wasn't really you know, for

30
00:01:56.400 --> 00:02:00.680
whatever reason, she didn't want to
do it anymore here and now she does

31
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:06.400
radio somewhere else. Intern John left
for a different opportunity and now he's a

32
00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:10.000
huge DJ in d C and Baltimore. So and then there have been people

33
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:14.240
who have been fired, and I'm
not gonna pick on anybody, because you

34
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.479
know, even after all these years, I don't want to embarrass anybody that's

35
00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:23.560
been fired from the radio station.
But I can only tell you that when

36
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:30.759
somebody gets fired, whether it's from
your place or from a radio station,

37
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:34.840
you don't just go, hey,
you know what, you know what sounds

38
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:38.319
good? You're gonna fire somebody?
You know? You just you just don't.

39
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:40.080
Yeah, I mean, And that's
really all I can say about it,

40
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:44.080
and there's really not and I will
go a little bit deeper with Drake

41
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:46.599
as a person. Drake was kind
of, like I joked earlier, I

42
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:50.680
said, he's like the son that
I never wanted. Drake was kind of

43
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:55.520
a you know, goofy, irresponsible, laid back, very funny, friendly,

44
00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:00.759
positive, always a warm hello,
always a war goodbye, always acted

45
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:07.000
like he was glad to see you. So there's no personal animosity with Drake

46
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:12.759
at all, and we wish him
well. And is there anything that I

47
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.360
missed? No, I don't think
so. I think that's pretty much everything.

48
00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:19.879
I will only go on to say
that, you know, I've been

49
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:22.560
doing this for a long time.
I've been at thirty almost thirty one years

50
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:24.960
here at this station. People come
and people go. Sometimes people last.

51
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:28.479
For you know, Steve was here
for fifteen years, Fallon was on the

52
00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:31.280
show for twelve years. She moved
up to her own show. So a

53
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:35.120
lot of people thought, and it's
funny how people want to speculate, just

54
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:38.000
like we look at the the Kate
Gate thing with Kate Middleton, we're like,

55
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:45.039
oh, there's something people aren't telling
us. And maybe it's like,

56
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:47.039
hey, maybe she's sick and she
doesn't want people to know. Well,

57
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:52.080
there's nothing that we're not telling you
except what we can't tell you. And

58
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:57.439
I will tell you that We've gone
through this before and we always bounce back

59
00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:00.240
and we always will. And people, I mean, it was so funny

60
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.840
because when people when Steve left the
show, people said, that's it.

61
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:06.599
I will never listen to the show
again. That's it. I'm done.

62
00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:11.879
I'm done with this show. And
the ratings actually got bigger after Steve left,

63
00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:15.919
not because Steve left, but for
whatever reason. And when and when

64
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.160
Lena left, oh, people were
like, oh god, well, now

65
00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:21.680
that Lena left, I'm never going
to listen to the show again. But

66
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:28.839
then they fell in love with fallon, So I don't know it will will

67
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:31.759
move on because that's what you do. You know. It's kind of like

68
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:34.480
if you break up with somebody.
You don't go, well, I'm going

69
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:38.680
to become a nun and I'm never
gonna date ever again. You go,

70
00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:42.279
well, this sucks, and then
you sit around and mope about it for

71
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:46.519
a while, and then you go
date somebody else. Exactly, Jenny,

72
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:50.040
you're not much help today, but
I appreciate you why you're doing analogies.

73
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:54.800
I don't know what else do you
want me to add to it? I

74
00:04:54.839 --> 00:05:00.720
don't know anyway, So Drake is
not here anymore, And if you want

75
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:03.680
to know more than I guess,
you could say, ask Drake. But

76
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:06.519
then again, you know he might
not want to talk about it either.

77
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.480
All right, I do want to
talk about this. I brought this up

78
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:13.399
earlier. It's funny because we were
trying to record the podcast earlier and we

79
00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:15.000
got about two minutes into it.
Of what the computer froze up? Jenny,

80
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:17.959
I don't know. Something started firing
off in my headphones and you didn't

81
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:20.560
hear it, and then I got
scared something was happening with a station,

82
00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:26.319
so we just had to stop we
were talking about a friend of mine who

83
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:30.759
and this is kind of a conversation
I want to have that's nothing to do

84
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:33.839
with what we just talked about.
But she said, I'm a mom,

85
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:39.959
I'm a grandma, i am a
wife. I do everything for everybody.

86
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.519
Nobody ever does anything for me.
She said, I'm getting tired of doing

87
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:46.959
things for other people and nobody does
anything for me. And I said that

88
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:50.040
sucks. And I said, I'll
bet we all feel like that at some

89
00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:54.120
time or another. Whether I think
a lot of moms feel that way because

90
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:56.399
they got a couple of rotten kids
they got to take care of. They

91
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:59.720
might have a partner that you know, doesn't really help as much as they

92
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.959
should, or they don't appreciate it. And I think a lot of people

93
00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:08.319
do. And I think sometimes there
are the people who do, and the

94
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:13.240
people who let other people do,
and the people who let other people do.

95
00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:15.439
Maybe we're guilty sometimes have taken them
for granted. Would you say that's

96
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:19.639
true? I mean absolutely, there
are definitely people in my life. My

97
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:24.439
mom, for example, I've definitely
taken her for granted. She's there for

98
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:28.959
me through like everything, and I
get annoyed sometimes when she calls me and

99
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:30.839
just wants to talk and I'm busy, you know, but she's always there

100
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:33.279
for me. Yeah, And I
think that's true. It's kind of like

101
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:39.800
I think I feel that way sometimes
too, because I really like doing things

102
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:43.240
for people, and I'm not talking
about monetary things, and I'm not talking

103
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:46.600
about you know, whether it's monetary
pick you up at the airport, or

104
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:48.959
help somebody along in their career or
whatever. And a lot of the time

105
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:53.720
there's just no it's like, what
are you gonna do for me? I

106
00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:56.519
mean, I've had people like friends
of mine say hey, will you take

107
00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:58.560
me flying? Will you take me
flying? Will you take me flying?

108
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:02.600
And I've kind of stopped in a
way because they just don't seem appreciative,

109
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:05.519
you know. Yeah, it's like, oh, you take me flying,

110
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:09.120
Well, it's gonna cost me about
four hundred dollars to take you flying.

111
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:13.240
I love to take you flying,
but when I get so little appreciation for

112
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:15.560
it, I'm just like, eh, no, but I'll give you a

113
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:18.399
phone number as somebody who will,
but you gotta pay for it on your

114
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:27.720
own. So if you feel unappreciated, you're not alone. Yeah, Ben,

115
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:29.600
if you got a story about it, send me an email to Ryan

116
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:32.360
Show at KTWB dot com. Let's
get into the emails. Jenny, you're

117
00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:35.040
ready, I'm my day. Let's
see what we got here. Hold on,

118
00:07:35.079 --> 00:07:39.680
I got to push the right tab
and see what we have. Some

119
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:46.120
have come in from earlier this morning. Let's try this one. What's up,

120
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.800
gang, I hope you're having a
great day. I'm emailing to ask

121
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:51.399
why Drake is gone. Okay,
so that's funny that you asked that,

122
00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:59.439
and basically we just we just talked
about that, so there's your answer already.

123
00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:03.560
But thanks, totally understand you asking. And then let me move down

124
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:09.079
to this one. Happy Tuesday.
I hope you're all having a dart licking

125
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:11.519
week. To make it short and
sweet, I would love advice and opinions

126
00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:16.199
from you guys and listeners regarding your
parents trying to help you with your finances

127
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:22.920
as a young adult. Here are
the details. Is it normal for your

128
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:26.759
parents to ask about your finances as
a young adult. My dad is my

129
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:30.399
best friend and has helped me budget
and knows how much I make, and

130
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:33.799
I ask him for advice before taking
jobs or paying to do anything that costs

131
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.720
a lot. But is it normal
or does this happen more than I realize.

132
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.120
I absolutely know it's none of his
business, but I also know he's

133
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:43.720
trying to help me and get me
set up for my future. I'm also

134
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:48.120
very thankful for that. But overall, I'm sure somebody has some type of

135
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:50.320
situation. How do you handle it? I don't mind you saying my name,

136
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:52.120
but if you can avoid it,
I would appreciate it. Case my

137
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:58.759
dad listens from Alabama, Thanks in
advance, and keep on dart licking.

138
00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.720
I would like a stay Rider sticker
if possible, so I will take a

139
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.159
picture of your address and send you
one. I think it's really cool that

140
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:09.519
your dad knows all your finances,
because this is somebody who, as your

141
00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:13.879
dad, wants nothing but the best
for you. Did she say how old

142
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:18.360
she was or no? She said
young adult. She does not say exactly,

143
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.679
but no, I'm gonna guess probably
mid twenties or so. She lives

144
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:28.320
in Texas, by the way,
which is really cool that she listens in

145
00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:31.919
Texas. They say, I know
it's none of yours, none of his

146
00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:37.919
business. He's also trying to help
me. Is this common? Susan helps

147
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:41.559
Carson a lot with his finances because
Carson. He makes a lot of money

148
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:43.840
when he's doing the tours, but
then he makes a little bit of money

149
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:48.200
doing his part time job when he's
not touring. And I'm not good with

150
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:52.320
money in finances because I just don't. My basically thing with money in finances

151
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:56.559
is I just I don't really spend
it. I'm not a money hoarder kind

152
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:00.000
of a person, so I don't
concern Susan is much more concerned with money,

153
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:05.200
so she advises Carson on finances.
Alison doesn't need it, Beth and

154
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:07.919
Chase don't need it. What do
you think. I just never had a

155
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:13.039
parent who was involved, like new
enough themselves to be able to help me.

156
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:16.320
So my parents have never been in
my business about finances. But I've

157
00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:20.919
had other people who I'm like envious
of their relationship with their parents because their

158
00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:26.000
parents help them get like an investment
portfolio going and helped with roth Ira and

159
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:28.440
all of this stuff. And so
I think, like, if that's where

160
00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:31.720
your parents are helping you, then
it's I would be willing to tell my

161
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:35.039
parents how much I was making them, But for right now, there's no

162
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:39.200
reason that I would tell my parents. Yeah, yeah, I totally get

163
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:43.279
that. I think that some people
are very involved in their kids' life and

164
00:10:43.320 --> 00:10:48.240
finances. And I know a lot
of parents give their kids money because they

165
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:52.240
could afford and the kids need money. And we've been guilty of that too,

166
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:56.240
because Carson lives in LA and the
only way to get deep into the

167
00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:58.039
music business is to live in Los
Angeles. Well, when you move to

168
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:01.960
Los Angeles without a job, you
can't afford to live in Los Angeles.

169
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:07.559
So we've helped him out with the
idea that you know, hey, you've

170
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:09.159
got to be really ambitious and you
get to really work in a high try

171
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:13.759
hard, and he has so yeah, no regrets. This email is mostly

172
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:18.159
for Jenny. I've been on a
recent binge of old Amazing Race episodes and

173
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:20.279
I think you and Andrew would be
the perfect pair to compete on the show.

174
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:24.039
From what I can tell, both
of you are in great shape for

175
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:26.559
the physical aspect of the game,
intelligent for mental challenges, seem to have

176
00:11:26.600 --> 00:11:31.080
great communication with each other, very
sociable, and of course love to travel.

177
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:35.440
You've also got a decent social media
presence and appear very marketable for TV.

178
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:39.200
I can't help but think how you
would kick ass racing around the world.

179
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:41.679
You can have about this though,
right we have. There was like,

180
00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:45.159
I don't know, a year ago, it got brought up somehow and

181
00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:48.879
we thought about it, and so
we were like watching audition videos from people

182
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:50.639
like who literally like they were on
the show, and they explained what they

183
00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:54.200
did in their audition videos, and
it kind of we kind of forgot about

184
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.080
it, honestly because we're like,
oh, we should try it, But

185
00:11:56.120 --> 00:12:00.399
then it did seem like a lot
of work because you can't just you can't

186
00:12:00.440 --> 00:12:03.919
just fill out an application and like
be like cool, maybe they'll reach out

187
00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:07.480
to me. You have to put
some effort into your audition videos, and

188
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:11.919
it just never was like a top
priority. Andrew wants to be on Survivor

189
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:13.919
more than anything. But when it
comes down to it, and we've discussed

190
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:18.440
this recently, Andrew doesn't have a
TV presence. He is not a public

191
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:22.960
speaker. He shuts down when a
camera gets put in front of his face.

192
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:26.240
Even if it's just me hanging out
with him at home and I try

193
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:31.519
to record something funny he's doing,
he stops. So I just don't foresee

194
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:33.440
us. And I'm not saying we
wouldn't ever try, but I don't foresee

195
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:37.799
us getting picked as like a couple
because I don't know that we would stand

196
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:41.879
out and be like the characters that
they're looking for those shows. I get

197
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:43.720
you, because you know what they
are characters. I mean you think about

198
00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:50.879
like when it goes all the way
back to like what's the one Big Brother?

199
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:56.480
Right big Brother? And Survivor and
Jersey Shore, all of those people

200
00:12:56.559 --> 00:13:03.480
that are supposedly on a reality show. They don't cast people who are quiet.

201
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.600
They cast people with big personalities.
If you think back to the original

202
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:13.639
season of Survivor, they had Tina
the white trash or Tina the nurse.

203
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.519
They had the white trash trucker.
They had Richard the gay guy, and

204
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.360
they were all characters and none of
them were like, you know, polite

205
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:24.919
and shy, and if they did, they did not last very long.

206
00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:26.960
So I get it. You and
Andrew would be great on Amazing Race because

207
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:31.039
you would fit all those things.
But Andrew just probably would kind of shrink

208
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:37.080
if he was on TV. Yeah. Yeah, Hello, Dave. I

209
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:39.440
want to ask for any tips of
resources for the Pinewood Derby, anything from

210
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:43.840
websites to cool recommendations or just things
you've learned through experience. Would be incredibly

211
00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:48.000
helpful. It's my son's first year
in Scouts and first time participating. He's

212
00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:52.000
so excited. My husband's pretty handy, but it's his first time doing it

213
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:54.799
as well. Hearing about your love
of Scouts and good things you've had to

214
00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:58.559
say about it made me feel good
about getting him involved. I know you're

215
00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:01.879
busy, so thanks in advance and
I'll email her back. But I thought

216
00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:05.679
it was kind of funny. There
are actual books of how to make your

217
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.759
racer go faster, and a lot
of it is they I think it's a

218
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:13.600
five ounce weight limit. You put
the drill a hole in your racer,

219
00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:16.240
and you drop fishing sinkers in there, and you weigh it on a posted

220
00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:20.879
scale until it is five ounces,
and then you go to the way in

221
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:24.200
and then you be ready. If
it's a little bit heavy, you be

222
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:28.919
ready to take some of that would
fill route and take a weight out,

223
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:33.679
but get your up to five ounces, and then also put graphite powder on

224
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:37.320
the wheels. The wheels are so
important. They get to spin freely.

225
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:41.679
And we did really well in the
Pinewood derby. Because there are actual books

226
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:46.440
that you can buy that'll tell you
how to build a good racer. Okay,

227
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:48.279
maybe I would say, maybe I'm
naive to this, but is that

228
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.639
a boy scout thing? Yeah,
it's all okay, okay, okay,

229
00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:54.799
because I was like, I don't
remember ever doing anything like that. Girl

230
00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:58.679
scouts do it too, and I
think it's open to any groups. I

231
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:01.840
mean, it's not exclusively a cub
scout thing, but that's kind of what

232
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:05.559
cub scouts are for. And I
I mean, that's not what they're for,

233
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:07.440
but that's where they usually do it. And she shows a picture of

234
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.240
her little eight year old Cub scout
and his name is Jonas and he is

235
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:16.960
adorable. He looks so proud.
And I'm gonna tell you that scouts,

236
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:22.080
I'm a big, big scout advocate
because if you're gonna play sports, you're

237
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:26.279
gonna recognize that the people who say
accel like sports are fast, big,

238
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:31.639
tall, or strong. A scout, whether they're a boy or a girl,

239
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:35.679
doesn't have to be any of those
things to succeed in scouting. Like,

240
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:39.919
for example, I mean, Allison
played volleyball and she was tall,

241
00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:45.759
but not fast and not really strong, and she also didn't have that you

242
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:46.639
know, like you can call it
the eye of the tiger, you know

243
00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:50.440
what I mean, like the her
factor. Yeah, she didn't have that.

244
00:15:50.840 --> 00:15:54.480
You can succeed in Scouts without any
of that. You can be a

245
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:58.120
quiet kid, kind of shy kid, and you're gonna love it. You're

246
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:00.200
gonna have a great time. So
there's my lug for Scouts. Yeah,

247
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:07.840
okay, I think we're getting kind
of near the end here. Here we

248
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:11.919
go real quick. I too heard. Oh they were talking about the Okay,

249
00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:15.080
never mind, they're talking about something
they heard on the show that they

250
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:18.399
didn't like but they thought was funny. So I'm gonna move on from that

251
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:25.120
one and I'm gonna go up to
let's do this one. Last week on

252
00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:26.799
the Minnesota Goodbye, you were talking
about the woman who asked for advice on

253
00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:32.320
owning her a new home. You
mentioned how you keep your pets in your

254
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:36.480
own yard. She wanted advice on
buying a new home, right, Yeah,

255
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:38.440
just to be like a homeowner.
Any advice of being a new homeowner.

256
00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:42.799
And I said, go meet your
neighbors because they're going to be great

257
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:45.360
when you need somebody to like,
Oh, I forgot to shut my garage

258
00:16:45.399 --> 00:16:48.960
door. Will you shut my garage
door? Or Skippy is gonna need to

259
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.919
be fed for a week. Can
you feed Skippy while we're out of town?

260
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:55.159
Can you get my mail while we're
out of town? And plus,

261
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:56.559
it's nice to be able to walk
out of the mailbox and see somebody that

262
00:16:56.600 --> 00:17:00.559
you know, even if you don't
need them for a favor. You mentioned

263
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:04.839
keep your pets in your own yard? Can we talk about that more,

264
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:10.319
particularly where people that their cats roam
the neighborhood. I'd like to give a

265
00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:12.400
PSA. In most cities, it's
illegal to let your pet off leash outside

266
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:18.920
your property that includes cats. Please, people, keep your damn cat in

267
00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:22.000
your own yard. I keep my
dog in my own yard or on a

268
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:23.960
leash. Cat owners should be just
as responsible. It's not that hard.

269
00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:29.559
I'm so tired of one my dog
trying to eat all the cat shit deposited

270
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.119
all over the sides of the street
walk, and two trying to keep a

271
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:36.519
dog quiet in her own yard while
the neighbor's cat sits five feet out of

272
00:17:36.559 --> 00:17:40.960
reach and sits in stairs taunting my
dog. Keep your damn cats off the

273
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:45.279
streets, please, dart lick Kate
for Motamede. We have a street cat

274
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.400
in our neighborhood and that's well,
it's like someone's cat, but they let

275
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:52.400
the cats roam whenever the cat loves
to go outside, and I thought it

276
00:17:52.440 --> 00:17:55.759
was a missing cat. Once I'm
coming home from the gym and I see

277
00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:57.200
it and I was like, here, kitty, kitty, like trying to

278
00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:00.200
talk to it. And then I
realized the owner was outside and I was

279
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:00.759
like, oh, is this your
cat? And they're like, yeah,

280
00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:06.839
she just likes to roam. It's
like, oh, okay. I used

281
00:18:06.839 --> 00:18:08.599
to be guilty of that. I
used to have a cat that I would

282
00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:15.599
let go outside and I never even
thought about it, and he would roam

283
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:18.000
around. We live by a marsh, and he would roam down by the

284
00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:22.880
marsh, and I think one of
the neighbors finally said something about the cat,

285
00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:25.319
like they'd call and they'd be like, your cat's in our backyard,

286
00:18:25.759 --> 00:18:27.200
and I was like yeah, So
then I finally got the idea. So

287
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:30.279
then I don't remember if I put
the cash out the cat out on a

288
00:18:30.359 --> 00:18:33.160
tie out or what. I don't
remember, but I was guilty of that,

289
00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:36.839
so I never even thought about it. Was it because like did you

290
00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:38.680
grow up with like barn cats or
something? Because I was gonna say,

291
00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:42.359
I'm my best friend's family. Growing
up, they had so many barn cats,

292
00:18:42.359 --> 00:18:45.960
so like that was pretty normal for
the cats to just roam outside and

293
00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:48.839
do whatever. Yeah, it wouldn't. I'll be honest. It wasn't really

294
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:51.000
a barn cat. It was a
pet cat. But we lived on five

295
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:53.680
acres and the cat would go outside
whenever they wanted to. It was like,

296
00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:57.680
oh, cat wants outside, and
they'd go roam around and yeah,

297
00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:02.680
so and that is going to do
it for the Minnesota Goodbye. If you

298
00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:07.039
want to comment on anything about Drake, don't ask me too many questions because

299
00:19:07.039 --> 00:19:11.000
I can't answer. Also, if
you want to talk about whether you feel

00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:14.599
like you're appreciated or not, and
what you go through and what you do

301
00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:18.640
for people but you don't get things
back in return, and anything else you

302
00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:22.839
want to bring up on the Minnesota
Goodbye, send that to Ryan's show at

303
00:19:23.039 --> 00:19:26.440
KDWB dot com and thanks for listening.
