WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.160 I'm going to start off with the Minnesota Goodbye, an apology for yesterday's Minnesota 2 00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:08.880 Goodbye, because apparently it was not the episode. Originally. We did fix 3 00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:13.759 it, but it was about four minutes of me recording promos for today's show. 4 00:00:13.919 --> 00:00:16.920 Did you say anything inappropriate in those promos? Because I fucked it up. 5 00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:20.320 I'm the one who uploaded the wrong thing, So did I screw something 6 00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:23.960 out? I got damned so stupid idiot. Well that's what I do, 7 00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:25.839 and I don't know why I do it, but I'll be like, Okay, 8 00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.320 tomorrow on the day Ryan Show, We're gonna be ba God damn it, 9 00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:32.920 you stupid fuck and show. That's just what I do because I like 10 00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:36.520 chied myself and I like I don't know, but nobody said anything about that. 11 00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:39.960 They just said it was four minutes long and just recordings for the actual 12 00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:43.119 warning show. Probably a technical air, but I'm curious if I was the 13 00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:47.520 only one this happened to. No, we had a bunch of messages yesterday, 14 00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:51.520 so we did get it fixed at about four o'clock yesterday. After Dude, 15 00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:53.920 I don't know what I was doing. I must have been doing multiple 16 00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:57.439 things at once because there's no reason I should have uploaded that instead of the 17 00:00:57.479 --> 00:01:00.359 actual podcast, so I apologize it is my fault. Yeah, well thanks 18 00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.560 Jenny. If it does happen again, you know, let us know. 19 00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:10.400 And because sometimes we make mistakes too, Dave Ryan's show. My girlfriend is 20 00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:11.840 a huge fan of your show, but listening to you guys for years, 21 00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:15.359 I'm not sure how to do this, so I hope this works. I 22 00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:18.519 want to give her a birthday shout out during the Minnesota Goodbye. Her name 23 00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:22.040 is Rachel. She's from Corkoran, Minnesota, and now we live in Seattle, 24 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:25.159 Washington. Her birthday is Saturday the fifteenth. Would it be possible to 25 00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:29.120 give her a shout out sometime this week during one of the shows. Absolutely, 26 00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:36.040 happy birthday to Rachel in Seattle, Washington from Chris and everybody here on 27 00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:38.760 abb birthday. That is super cool. I'm going to be out your way 28 00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:42.599 in a few weeks on hiking or climbing out there. Yeah. I'm going 29 00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.359 to be in Seattle for like a day or two, and then we're going 30 00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.560 to be near Lovenworth, Washington for a few days to hike. See. 31 00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:53.879 I envy that so much because I love hiking and I'm probably gonna go do 32 00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.000 the Pike's Peak hike at the end of July. So I had to pump 33 00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.159 it back from the end of June because there's still snowed toward the summit and 34 00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:04.640 you literally have to wear snowshoes to get up there. I am not wearing 35 00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:07.840 snowshoes hiking up Pike's Peak. Does this snow ever fully melts though near the 36 00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:10.599 summit? Okay, guess i'd say because that is the highest peak in Colorado. 37 00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:15.719 Correct? Absolutely, Actually it's not. That's kind of the misconception. 38 00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:20.360 There are about twenty they call them fourteen ers that are peaks above fourteen thousand, 39 00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:23.680 and there are probably about twenty of them, and they're probably Pikes Peak 40 00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:27.120 is maybe the seventh highest or something like that. Yeah huh. Next one 41 00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:31.840 from Sarah from the southeast edge of Minneapolis. She shares, I love Bigger, 42 00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:36.120 better, Blacker and Bailey Mornings. Seriously, Bailey and Vont are amazing 43 00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:38.080 additions to Jenny and Dave in the morning. I'm so proud of all of 44 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:43.039 you for your dedication and hard work. It does not go unnoticed. First, 45 00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:46.000 Bailey, you are a bright light. You've inspired me to lengthen my 46 00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:50.479 daily walks from about a mile to three to six miles. So thank you 47 00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:53.879 for that boost. I'm impressed with how seamlessly you joined the show. Did 48 00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:57.800 we read this yesterday? Yesterday? I think we read it out of the 49 00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:00.080 air, did No? I think we've read it on Minnesota goodbye. Oh 50 00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.719 okay, well I'm gonna read it again. Okay, you are hilarious. 51 00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.120 Please never stop being exactly you and fuck that guy that said you're homely. 52 00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:08.759 Yeah, we did read this yesterday. Can I say sure you didn't read 53 00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:12.479 this one? I wasn't in the studio because I don't remember them. I 54 00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:15.199 think I read it to Bailey off. Oh, I think you did, 55 00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:16.400 because I feel like I might not have been in the studio because this is 56 00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:20.199 new to me. Oh, I have a comment about the walks that. 57 00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:23.919 First of all, I'm proud of you for lengthening your walks. Great job. 58 00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:27.879 But yesterday I went on a seven mile walk. It was so nice, 59 00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.759 and the week before the day before that six point five. Usually I 60 00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:34.759 only do like four and a half to five miles, but it's been so 61 00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:38.680 beautiful. The weather is truly the most perfect weather ever. So I was 62 00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:39.439 like, you know what, I have to go on a walk and I 63 00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:43.840 started walking through like Saint Louis Park and I could feel Jenny in the air. 64 00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:46.560 So I get a text her like where do you live? I feel 65 00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:50.759 like I'm walking by your home and I was nowhere near Jenny's home. She's 66 00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:52.960 like, I feel your presence right now? Where do you live? And 67 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.599 I was like, all right, creep. I was like no, yeah, 68 00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:59.080 she said she has a little wait, can I get your walking motivation 69 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.680 and routine? In other words, what motivates you? And also do you 70 00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:04.400 carry like a water bottle? Do you got your earbuds in? What do 71 00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:09.000 you do? Yeah? So it's funny because the whole motivation thing I definitely 72 00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:12.560 agree with the if you make it a habit, it turns into you know, 73 00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:16.560 motivation that way. So obviously it's the weather that motivates me. And 74 00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:20.360 like the first I don't know, fifteen minutes of a walk is just like 75 00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:24.879 okay, here I go. But then you like hit adrenaline or whatever and 76 00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:28.160 you're like, yeah, I'm breathing the air, I got vitamin D. 77 00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.199 I'm just gonna keep on going. And now I feel like a dog where 78 00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:33.279 I'm just like when's walk time? Can I go on? A walk. 79 00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:35.800 When is the walk I want to go on a walk. And yeah, 80 00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:41.800 I listen to a podcast usually or audio books on my walks. But then 81 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:46.040 sometimes like if the birds are really singing pretty, I just turn off my 82 00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:49.399 audio and I just listen to birds. And then I look at houses that 83 00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:53.240 I want to live in, and then I google the houses, and so 84 00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:56.279 usually I'm looking up you know, the number on the house and the street 85 00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:59.480 address and everything, and I'm looking it up to see if I can find 86 00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:00.920 pictures of the house on the inside. Oh that's cool, Like you look 87 00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:03.800 up Zillow or whatever and see whether it's yeah, where you can look inside. 88 00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:06.040 Yeah, And it's always like a nice houses, right one hundred. 89 00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:10.720 Well, no, usually they're like tiny, I mean tiny quote unquote cottage 90 00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:13.439 kind of looking houses because I just want a little house. Yeah, And 91 00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:15.240 I look them up to see could I afford that house? The answer is 92 00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:17.680 no, No, I could never afford that house. We did that. 93 00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:20.040 We were in any Dinah the other day for a party and we were looking 94 00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:23.800 at houses that were like across the street to see what they sold for. 95 00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:26.800 And I was surprised they didn't sell for as much as I thought because they're 96 00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.319 not on a lake. You put that same house any Dina on a lake 97 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:31.920 double the value. You take a two million dollar e Dina house, put 98 00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:33.879 it on a lake, and now it's four million dollars. Yeah, I 99 00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:39.800 could maybe afford a house on a highway. So fingers crossed. Good luck, 100 00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:42.639 get good luck getting out of your driveway. Yeah, yeah, no 101 00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:45.680 kidding. I'm with you, though. When I hiked up Pike's Peak, 102 00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.079 I also didn't have music on or a podcast. I just wanted to enjoy 103 00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:54.759 the sounds of like birds and wind. So yeah, feeling you need to 104 00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:59.040 have music on. Second, I want to mention how absolutely hilarious it is 105 00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:03.160 to me when Jenny calls Dave babe most recently heard on Friday's Minnesota did buy 106 00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:06.560 like tears streaming down my face, laughing. I can't tell if it's accidental 107 00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:10.920 or it's like when you say to a dude, oh hey girl. Either 108 00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:14.639 way, I love it and please never stop. Thank you, especially David 109 00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:18.199 for being my strongest and longest Paris social relationship. It means more than I 110 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:21.839 could ever say. Hold on, we're going to adjust some volumes. Okay, 111 00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:27.279 we're adjusting volumes. Okay, good love y'all, Sarah T from the 112 00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:31.279 southeast edge of Minneapolis. So thank you Sarah a very positive, nice email. 113 00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:38.279 Here is another Sarah without an h Hello everybody. I was shocked when 114 00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:42.519 Dave brought up the movie Untamed Heart on the podcast today. That was a 115 00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:45.439 movie we watched all the time growing up, and so many people haven't heard 116 00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:47.199 of it. I had no idea it was filmed here in Minneapolis. Now 117 00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:50.879 I want to rewatch it and see what locations I can recognize. Here are 118 00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:54.959 some other topics I want to hear you chat about, Dave. Are you 119 00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:57.720 going to do the Twin Cities ten miler this year? Probably not. I 120 00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:00.720 have no plans to Bailey, did you I was supposed to though last year, 121 00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:04.800 right, I wasn't was canceled because of the HEU Right? Yeah yeah, 122 00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:09.160 Bailey. Did you enjoy working in Disney? I told my husband I 123 00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:11.800 want to move there in fifteen years after the kids are grown, to work 124 00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:15.720 there. My dream would be to work at the Golden Grill Garden I'm sorry, 125 00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:19.519 Garden Garden Grille. Yeah. My husband keeps sending me tiktoks of alligators. 126 00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:23.600 Bailey, what's your favorite ride? What's your favorite resort? Do you 127 00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:27.079 like Hanted Mansion. That's Dave's favorite ride, and I don't get it. 128 00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:30.240 So let's go back. Did you like working there? Yes, I liked 129 00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:32.879 working at Disney. I worked there for about a year and a half and 130 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:36.279 I really did enjoy it because you got to be with your friends, you 131 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:40.319 got to go to the parks all the time. But I ended up leaving 132 00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:45.639 because they pay you garbage, really absolute garbage when I started. Granted, 133 00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:48.879 I started in twenty thirteen, and I got paid seven seventy three an hour, 134 00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:54.480 and a lot of our payment was taken out for rent, so you 135 00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:59.199 would get maybe one hundred dollars a week to live. Oh wow, and 136 00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:01.800 then a lot of that money you recycle back into buying, you know, 137 00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:05.360 like mini mouse ears that you wear in the park because you go constantly. 138 00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:09.519 But overall, I loved that job and I can close my eyes and picture 139 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:13.120 myself anywhere in Disney World, which is a blessing. Did you get food 140 00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:16.920 along with the rent? No? No, no, wow, No, 141 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:20.959 Bailey. What's your favorite ride? My favorite ride is probably Haunted Mansion. 142 00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.439 I do really like that one. What is your favorite resort? The Boardwalk? 143 00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:28.279 I've never stayed, but I like Jelly rolls, which is a dueling 144 00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:33.879 piano bar that's on the boardwalk. Okay, cool, and Jenny, have 145 00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:35.840 you tried physical therapy for your knee. I'm no expert. It's a long 146 00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.840 time runner and frequent googler, and I found my knee pain was resolved after 147 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:45.840 I started doing lots and lots of clamshells. It builds up the stabilizing muscles 148 00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:52.519 in the glute meds, it says. Okay, anyway, Jenny, no, 149 00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:56.320 I have not. Honestly, I had to do physical therapy for my 150 00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:58.000 risk for a while until they finally told me I needed surgery, and then 151 00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:03.480 I did about eight months physical therapy after the surgery. So physical therapy does 152 00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:05.320 not sound very fun to me right now. So I just endure the pain 153 00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:09.039 and maybe in a year or two I'll look into it. And I probably 154 00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:13.039 should sooner rather than later, because I'm getting old and I don't want to 155 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.799 have bad knees when I'm like forty five, to the point where I'm like 156 00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:20.639 struggling to do things I like to do. So, Okay, my wife's 157 00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:24.279 got bad knees, and she they said, put off getting a knee replacement 158 00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:26.879 as long as you can, because that's going to last you for life. 159 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:30.600 So if you get your knees replaced you I guess you can only do that 160 00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:37.799 one arm snakes. Let's get onto snakes any right, san We got snakes 161 00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.039 in our yard. Now this came up because our landscaper said, oh, 162 00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:46.240 you got snakes out by your pond, snakes and ants. And we said, 163 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:50.279 okay, well we call this snake removal person and we said, come 164 00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:52.320 by, we got snakes. They said, okay, we'll come by. 165 00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:58.000 Then an actual park ranger, like a certified naturalist scientist park ranger said, 166 00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:01.639 no, snakes are good snakes in Minnesota not poison in most parts. You 167 00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.200 probably got a little garter snake or maybe like a bowl snake or something that's 168 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:07.639 a little bit burt bigger. But they eat rats and voles and mice and 169 00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.039 other varmuts, so they're actually a good thing. So unless you've noticed them 170 00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:15.960 and they're a nuisance, don't get rid of snakes. They're harmless, they 171 00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.480 said. We live on two and a half acres of mostly woods and new 172 00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:22.879 olms, so they're definitely around. My husband is tairfied of snakes. Apparently 173 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:26.960 he saw a snake skin in our yard. And he freaked. Last summer, 174 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.679 my dog got a snake and it must have bitter face. She swelled 175 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:33.039 all up. I called the vet said it's probably a little infection, not 176 00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:35.360 venomous. The swelling went down on its own. She's a happy, healthy 177 00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:39.799 girl. So just to let you know if something ever happens with Josie. 178 00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:43.039 I saw an old baby snake in our basement last week. Our house is 179 00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.200 one hundred and fifty years old, so not crazy weird, I told my 180 00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.840 husband. He said, if we see anything bigger than that, we are 181 00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:54.159 moving asap. And he won't let me get rid of our cat now because 182 00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:56.919 he caught it before I noticed the snake. Not that getting rid of that 183 00:10:56.960 --> 00:11:01.039 little mouse catcher was ever an option. But yes, nakes are everywhere. 184 00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:05.639 As long as they're outside, I don't mind. But in the house is 185 00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:09.600 a different story from Hannah. Let's go back to the fact that your house 186 00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:13.440 is one hundred and fifty years old. That would put it in eighteen seventy 187 00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:18.879 four. Now, New Alm is a really really old town. German it 188 00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:22.919 is, yeah, And as matter of fact, there's a statue outside of 189 00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:26.360 town called Herman the German. Did you know that? Yes, it's called 190 00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:28.639 Herman the German. He's wearing like a helmet and he's got a sword in 191 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.039 his huge he is huge. New Alm is such a charming, very cool 192 00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:37.399 little town. We usually go down there once a year and we stay at 193 00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:39.639 the holiday Inn and swim at the indoor pool and we go to beagles Kaiserhoff 194 00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:45.000 and then they're shopping along the main street and it's just cool. But New 195 00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:50.399 Olm was during the su uprising of eighteen sixty two, which you never heard 196 00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:54.679 of, No I have have you heard of? Thee and in the New 197 00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.480 Alm like historical Society, and it's interesting because it's like written by definitely two 198 00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:03.080 different groups of people. So it's like one side is like the Native Americans 199 00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:05.519 were in the wrong, and then the other side are the Native Americans were 200 00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:09.200 in the right. And it's a very interesting museum. Yeah, and so 201 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:13.159 that's where a lot of the settlers. So here's what happened in eighteen sixty 202 00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:16.519 two. Here's a little bit of history, and it's fascinating. The Indians, 203 00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:20.600 the Natives, they got treated like garbage. And there was an in 204 00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:24.200 they're gonna use the word Indian because that's what they called them back then. 205 00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:28.000 But no, disrespect. There was what they called an Indian agent who was 206 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:31.919 supposed to bring the Indians their flour and their sugar and their coffee and their 207 00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:35.679 whatever it was. And they were late all the time, and they were 208 00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:37.919 supposed to pay them, but they were late all the time. And so 209 00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.320 this Indian agent said, let him eat grass. Those were his words, 210 00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:46.399 let them eat grass. The Indians were pissed, rightfully so, because they 211 00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.159 were starving. So there was an uprising and they went around and they killed 212 00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:54.159 and raided a bunch of settlers homes, about four hundred, they don't know 213 00:12:54.240 --> 00:13:00.559 for sure. European settlers died because the Indians were like, let's fight back, 214 00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:03.759 and you can't blame them because they're starving. And the Indian agent was 215 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:07.559 found with it. He was found dead with his mouth stuffed full of grass 216 00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:11.960 because he had said, let them eat grass. So a lot of the 217 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:18.600 Europeans fled to New Olm for protection, and there's a great story about that. 218 00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:22.320 They also fled to a fort called Fort Ridgely, which is on the 219 00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:28.799 Minnesota River. And the Indians were terrified of cannons because they didn't know what 220 00:13:30.080 --> 00:13:33.279 you know, Cannons were scary and they were loud, and so they used 221 00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:37.399 the cannons to keep the Indians away. And you can still visit Fort ridgely 222 00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:43.120 and there's the footprint of all of the buildings in the square of the fort 223 00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.000 and it's historic and it's fascinating and it's isolated and it's beautiful, and there's 224 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:52.120 such rich history out there. And New Alms got really cool. That historical 225 00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:56.240 society is really neat. And I will say a lot of Native Americans also 226 00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:58.840 died in that uprising as well, not just the Europeans. Well, no, 227 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:03.120 of course. Yeah, but here's the tragic end of the story. 228 00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:09.759 So they found something like hundreds of Native Americans guilty and they were going to 229 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:16.240 be hanged, like one hundred or more, and then President Lincoln said, 230 00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:22.320 we're going to pardon or excuse most of them. But thirty eight Natives were 231 00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:28.519 hung in man Cato, all at the same time in a big square, 232 00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:33.840 huge scaffolding, and that's like the largest mass execution ever ever in the United 233 00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:39.360 States history. So yeah, just a tragic, sad end. And so 234 00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:43.159 there's a little bit of history. There's a lot of very rich and tragic 235 00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:48.399 Native history in Minnesota. Let's move on to the next one. Let's see, 236 00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:56.519 I'm going to go back to some episodes that I missed and I had 237 00:14:56.519 --> 00:15:01.840 to email in about January twenty ninth. Gushion about discovering things your significant other 238 00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:05.960 is spending money on. Long story short, my husband and I wanted to 239 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:09.080 buy a house, so I pulled our credit reports. Holy cow, what 240 00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:13.320 was on his report was a shock. His scores were the lowest I've ever 241 00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:18.879 seen. And we found out that my husband's ex wife took out multiple twenty 242 00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:22.919 five thousand dollars car loans with my husband listed as either the primary or co 243 00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:28.840 signer. Then she did not pay any of them. So not his spending 244 00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:31.919 halfits, but definitely discovered his lack of attention to things, including that he 245 00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:35.759 doesn't open his mail. It took me a couple of years, but it 246 00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:37.600 got fixed and we were eventually able to buy a house and I manage all 247 00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:43.080 the mail and bills now lol, And we've recently added identity theft alerts on 248 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.519 all of our credit bureaus. That's all nothing too exciting, but a psa 249 00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:50.279 that people should definitely monitor their shit. Credit Karma is free. I didn't 250 00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:54.759 know credit krma no that either. Do you have a good credit score. 251 00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.159 I don't know. How do you know what your credit score is? I 252 00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:02.200 don't know. I mean usually comes when you do things like take out a 253 00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:06.000 loan or something like that. You can see like a car loan, get 254 00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:08.440 a preapproved for a house, stuff like that, but you can just like 255 00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:14.320 go check as well. I think a lot of apartments require a decent day 256 00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:18.879 scot or four nowadays. I think, I mean I pay my credit card. 257 00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:21.360 Do you pay it all off at once? I do every month, 258 00:16:21.399 --> 00:16:23.000 So then you're probably pretty good, okay. I think when you carry a 259 00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:27.360 high credit card balance, sure, that is when things are not so good. 260 00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:30.120 But it's also more than just credit cards. It's like your debt in 261 00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.879 general. Yeah, so if you have like student debt, like I can 262 00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:37.679 take a hit on you sometimes too if you're not paying that. Yeah. 263 00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:41.480 I miss like two student loan payments right at the beginning because I didn't know 264 00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:44.960 how it worked. But then so I probably had bad credit and then it 265 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:48.039 now it should be okay. No, I don't think missing too. Did 266 00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:52.320 you pay them later? Yeah, I think you're probably fine. It wouldn't. 267 00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:56.120 It maybe knocked you down a little bit at the beginning, but you 268 00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:57.759 should be fine. This will never buy a house now. I have terrible 269 00:16:57.799 --> 00:17:03.079 credit creditible you should your credit card. I don't think so creditre is free. 270 00:17:03.119 --> 00:17:06.359 I will check it out. I'm googling it now. I think though, 271 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:08.839 that there when every time you check your credit it affects your credit though, 272 00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:14.960 so they not is that true, that's a myth. Oh, I 273 00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:18.920 heard the same thing. I heard that if you check your credit it lowers 274 00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:22.240 your score. But then somebody else said that's a myth. Somebody will let 275 00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:25.079 us know. We got all kinds of intelligent finance people that listen to the 276 00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:29.720 podcast, so hush no. I was lucky that I think when I think 277 00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:33.759 that some people that grow up poor are end up being really bad with money, 278 00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:37.319 and then some people that grew up poor are really good with money. 279 00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:41.000 I'm not. I wouldn't say I'm good with money. I just don't spend 280 00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:45.079 a lot, so we save a lot, and I always have. Even 281 00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:47.799 when I made, like, you know, seven hundred dollars a month, 282 00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:53.920 I still didn't overspend. And I got a Seers credit card with a two 283 00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:57.200 hundred dollars balance on it, and I was like, damn, I got 284 00:17:57.200 --> 00:18:00.279 a credit card. Well, back then, you could buy a lot more 285 00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:03.799 for two hundred dollars, but I always paid it off. Is so I 286 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:07.160 just never really carried a balance. I think it's just like, I don't 287 00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:10.680 know, it's whatever makes you happy, because I grew up with no money, 288 00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:12.960 and me and one of my sisters are very very good with money and 289 00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:17.279 more very frugal. Another sister, though, is not so much. She 290 00:18:17.359 --> 00:18:21.240 spends money like she's rich as can be, and she does well for herself, 291 00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:22.880 but she doesn't do as well as what she spent. She spent. 292 00:18:23.119 --> 00:18:27.720 Yeah, would you say that's my sister too. She eats orders out all 293 00:18:27.799 --> 00:18:30.480 the time all the time, Like, girl, with what money? You 294 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:34.920 have a baby? What are you doing? Anyway? I have family members 295 00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:37.319 that are also, like you know, nobody in our family is rich. 296 00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:41.880 I mean, if they are, they're distant families like uncles or cousins or 297 00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:47.000 whatever. But there are people in my family that they are not rich by 298 00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:49.640 any means, but they spend like they are rich. And I used to 299 00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:53.119 get some details of like, yeah, well this and this and this, 300 00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:56.599 we couldn't qualify for this. And I don't really hear the stories about their 301 00:18:56.599 --> 00:19:02.240 finances anymore, which kind of tells me that they're not good. I think 302 00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:06.720 just some people. I know people that when they get money they have to 303 00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:10.839 spend it. It's almost like a disease, like I got three hundred dollars 304 00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:14.920 at the casino. I must go spend this money. Well, it is 305 00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:18.200 a form of addiction. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, because you get like 306 00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:22.279 a dopamine head every time you buy something, or like I mean, online 307 00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:26.160 shopping has screwed so many people because it's like, oh, one little click 308 00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:27.960 and then I get to or something arrives at my door and it makes you 309 00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:30.559 happy. How easy do you remember? On Amazon? It used to be 310 00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:33.000 buy with one click, so you would see something like I don't know a 311 00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:36.880 pair of shoes, yeah, and you would hit buy with one click. 312 00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:40.519 And it doesn't let you do that anymore. Well really, yeah, you 313 00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:44.319 have to take two steps. Still, it's very easy. Yeah, but 314 00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.279 it's no longer buy with one click. You must spend some time on it. 315 00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:52.599 That is going to do it for the Minnesota good bye, Thanks for 316 00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:56.440 being here.
