Let's get started on the Minnesota Goodbye. Let me just let's talk for a
little bit about you know, we won't talk about this on the radio,
but it's so interesting. We went to Girls' night Out last night, and
it's so funny because, you know, we went to Cowboy Jack's the Barn,
which is a giant venue. It's bigger than a basketball court. It's
a huge venue. And we give away a ton of tickets because we want
to pack the place. And like any party that you have, even you
have a party in your backyard or a grad party or whatever, you want
a lot of people to show up. And we got there. I got
there at six fifteen. You were there right about the same time I was,
and the crowd was a little thin, and of course, as a
host and you know, it's our party, we're looking around going, oh
wow, yeah, not a lot of people in this giant, giant room.
And then it started to fill up and by about seven thirty it was
pretty much packed. Yeah, yeah, it was. It was a lot
of people. And I think we were nervous too, because last year we
had such so many snowstorms last year that girls and I out got pushed.
And then when it got pushed to the next date. Yeah, that's right.
Didn't end up having as many people show up because it wasn't the date
that was originally planned. But we couldn't exactly give away too many more tickets.
Yeah, we didn't know how many people would show up. So it's
always like it's a little nerve wrecking to know. And also a week night,
it's questionable who's going to like last minute and be like, I don't
know, like I gotta work tomorrow. I really admire the people who came
out because it's like, yeah, you know a lot of people have babies.
They get to work tomorrow. I talked to you, But one of
the girl who won the Twerking contest is an engineer. Really yeah, because
you know, I was stalling an interview and everybody up on stage and what
do you do, where do you live? Whatever? And there were I
don't remember the other occupations. There was a pharmaceutical tech like you know,
a pharmaceutical assistant, the one who whatever it worked at the pharmacy window whatever.
And but the girl who won was not somebody that you would think would
ever know how to tw work by looking at her, you know what I
mean? Yep, but Jenny did the demonstration, and good god, Jenny's
ass put out a couple of lights, broke some glasses at the bar,
except for when I look back at the video, one of our shout out
to Jess, our promotion staff, because she got this video of me,
and I looked so ridiculous because I'm wearing this pencil like skirt dress thing and
I can't move barely in it, so that's not exactly what you wear when
you're trying to tork like I had to kick my shoes off because I was
about to fall over, so I kicked those off within the first three seconds,
and then I tried to move, and then I just looked like I
was one of those flailing inflatable things at a car dealership. When I looked
back at it, I looked so ridiculous, but I was trying to prove,
like it's you gotta work pretty hard to do that contest, because the
contest was like this Kleenex box around your waist and ping pong balls in it,
and you had to get the ping pong balls out, and it's not
just as simple like move your butt a little bit. It's like you gotta
move yeah, bounce and move and yeah, you did a really good job.
The winners were a lot of fun. It was a little behind the
scenes thing. Lawrence was there. They're a brother sister band. Long story
short. The girl she did not she couldn't make it, and we were
disappointed, and so was the band and they were like, it's so apologetic,
they said, I'm so sorry. But she had something huge that came
up, and it was an opportunity to be in some cast of some show
and she found out three days ago and she had to go to LA for
this. We're like, no, we totally understand. I mean a bar
gig in Minneapolis versus being in a big show on HBO or it's like a
big opportunity for her. I don't know if we're allowed to talk about it.
So I was like, I can't be mad at her for missing because
of that, not at all. But it's it's really interesting because what we
basically do all night is we take pictures. That's really what we do.
We take pictures all night. Can I get a picture? Can I get
a picture? Can I get a picture? Well, of course we're never
ever going to say no. So the difficult part is if you're on your
way to the stage, or you're urgently going to try to find Drake or
urgently going to get somebody to do something. People will, you know,
they'll stand with their phone and they'll say can I get a picture? And
you don't want to ever say not right now. But sometimes I had to
go to the bathroom and I was like, on my way to the bathroom,
I had a couple of minutes and there was somebody who said, kind
of get a picture. I said, I'll be right back. She almost
followed me into the bathroom. Yeah. So, but whenever I meet people
that want to get a picture, I always try to this is there's no
reason I'm telling you this, but I always want people to walk away going
wow, he was really nice instead of god, he barely had time for
a picture. Yeah. So I'll talk to people like, oh, where
are you from or whatever, and you know, did you get away from
the family tonight or have you been out lately or whatever, because I always
want people to walk away going wow. Those people from KTWDB are really nice.
And you're so good, Jenny, You're so good with people. Not
having come from a radio background and doing this, you know, you've done
it for like six or seven years on KTWDB. But you do such a
good job with people too, thank you. I mean usually, like for
me, it would always be a matter of all of a sudden, I
hear you talking on stage because we were supposed to be doing something and I'm
in the back of the venue and I was like, guys, I'm so
sorry, but I'm supposed to be up there. And they're always like it's
cool, like run whatever. But I feel the same, like I don't
want to, like like someone will grab me as I'm trying to run on
a stage and I'm like, I'm so sorry. I just like I gotta
to go up there quick. I'll try to come back right after there.
Yeah, they understand, you know, I will give of all people.
It's something I think I would have learned anyway. But I'm gonna give credit
to an unusual celebrity that you would not expect. Brooke Shields. Okay,
okay, So I met Brooke Shields twenty five years ago at a big NBC
event in Burbank in California, and she came in and she was plugging a
new show that she had on TV. It was new called Suddenly Susan I
think. And she came in. She's very you know, polite and professional.
She's at that time probably thirty years old or so something like that.
And she comes in and I said, can I get an autograph? Back
when people would ask for autographs, nobody does anymore. And she signed a
long autograph and I said, wow, you wrote a novel on there,
and you know, like in a joking way, she said, well,
I always want people to think that, to know that they meant enough to
me to not just sign my name, but to put a little message in
there. And I thought that if Brooks Shields has time to sign something for
a DJ, that's a good lesson. Yeah, that, you know,
to let people know that they're important. And I tell people this all the
time. They say, I've been listening for years. I say, thank
you so much. We need you and we appreciate you, because we do.
We really do need you and appreciate you, and we never take that
for granted. So if you ever have a bad experience with me, I
hope that's I hope you understand it's because I what probably I had to poop
because if you like, walk up to me in quick trip and I'm like
hustling for the bathroom, and you're like, oh my god, I listen
to you all the time, and I'm like, I think, think by
thanks bye, and then you go, well, what a jerk. All
right, let's dive into the emails. This one is kind of fun.
It's not Naughty Tuesday, but let's call it freaky Friday. Oh. I
like that this is anonymous, but she says, I have a plethora of
places I've got my freak nasty on. And here we go. A picnic
table in a park in the middle of the night, two different fraternities,
chapter rooms, hotel rooms, we split with friends very drunkenly after weddings,
a roadie, a college classroom, et cetera. Your girl was wild back
in the day. Anonymously, she signs off with right, which is another
inside joke from the carving guy from the what is It They Buffet? Training
video? So thank you. I love that you sound like you like to
maybe have the potential of getting caught in public. Some people do, like
she saw like she's like on the edge, and it's probably something that turns
around a bit like ooh, there are people that I've dated that are like
I like doing it with the possibility of somebody watching, and I'm like,
really yeah. And you know what's funny is like, I guess if you
are young and it turns you on and you look good naked, yeah,
I guess maybe it would turn somebody on to get to have somebody watch.
Julie and I back when we were both young and hot, we were at
a hotel room one time and we did it in front of the open window
at like a courtyard by Marriott, And so there she was in your room,
but then you were right at the court yard, was right in front
of you. Yep, yep, yep, And so she was facing the
window naked with her arms like up on the window edges, and I was
behind her, and we knew it was at night, and we knew anybody
could see, and it wasn't my idea, but a guy looked up,
and he looked up again and he was watching. Then I think we both
got a little bit uncomfortable and like, you know, close the curtain or
whatever. So all right, thank you for that one. Let's move to
some other email we've got here. Sony writes in Dave Jenny Drake, Jenny,
I'd love to hear Andrew's opinion on this week's Survivor episode personally, fellow
staff writer Sarah, and I think this week's elimination was predictable. Also,
we want him to audition again, right, Sonia? What do you got,
Jene? I think Andrew's take was he thought it was brilliant. Well,
he didn't think it was brilliant, but like the whole someone made oh
my god, what are they called immunity idol, like a fake one,
and they made this girl believe she had one. Oh, so she used
it at God, I forget what all these things are called, but where
you get eliminated? She used it and she thought she was safe. And
then Jeff was like, this is not a real immunity. So someone gave
it to her, and so I thought that was brilliant. Apparently they've done
that before. But I think it was definitely predictable. And what was the
other question that he should maybe audition again. Yeah, I think Andrew did
it, But I said this, I think on the last time I talked
about it, Andrew gets really camera shy. He's not a public speaker.
He just like turns into someone he's not like, he turns into a very
introverted person when a camera's put on him. I get that. Like I
try to like record the funny shit he does, because Andrew is so funny,
but he'll be funny in the moment, and then if I get my
phone out, he can't perform then again. And so he just says that
he just doesn't think he could do Survivor. He'd be too shy around the
cameras and it would mess with his game. And that's so important in those
reality shows because they want you to be a character. And Andrew is funny,
but you know, when we put him on the radio, he gets
nervous or shy or whatever and and comes across differently than he does in person.
And I think that's you know, that doesn't really work well for a
reality show because they want characters. I mean, think about you know,
I mean, whether you watch Survivor or what's the other one that I used
to watch all the time. An Amazing Race was one fear factor? Oh
yeah, and they have like, you know, loud, obnoxious people.
They never have somebody who's like meek and like, you know, polite.
Yeah, it's like, yeah, bitch, I'm going to kick your ass
type of thing next one. Hello David Jenny. Last time we wrote,
we were. Last time we wrote you, we were driving a camp or
van completely around Iceland. Now we are enjoying the natural beauties of New Zealand.
Both amazing countries, but in New Zealand they drive on the other side
of the road. Luckily, my husband Josh picked it up quickly and is
being an amazing chauffeur. Whenever you go, we go, no matter how
remote. We always make sure to download episodes of your show. I so
appreciate that, even in New Zealand. Yeah, Ally and Josh are listening.
We were listening to the episode where Dave got back from Hawaiian talked about
what a small world it is. We had our own small world moment in
New Zealand. We stopped at a small town in a bakery and ran into
a girl we went to high school with. We haven't seen her since high
school. She wasn't originally supposed to be in this small town, but ended
up there when her flight got rerouted. Such a small world. Thanks for
all you do, riders, Ali and Josh. PS you ever all find
yourself in Iceland and New Zealand. I have some very detailed itineraries for you.
Those are both countries that are on the top of my list of places
I want to go. Yeah, those two and Norway are like the three
main ones and pretty much anywhere in Southeast Asia. But those three also okay,
yeah, I mean, you know what, I think. Iceland is
a very trendy or has been for a while, a very trendy destination.
I'd love to go there. New Zealand is one. I was talking to
my trainer, Phil shout Out the other day and he said, so you
got back to Hawaii. Do do you ever have any desire to go to
Europe? And I said no, I said, I've been there, you
know, I've been to the standard, Paris, Germany, and Italy.
I really don't, you know, I don't have the travel bug. I
really don't. There are places that I'd like to see. I went to
Japan. That was the most exotic trip I'll probably ever go on. But
I don't really have the travel bug that way, you know. I'd like
to go to the National parks, or drive to Alaska, or ride on
the motorcycle. I have just saw TikTok yesterday and it was a guy who's
said, oh, Americans are so ridiculous. They're not traveled, they're not
well traveled. This and this and that, and he was from Europe,
and he goes, let me tell you why Americans are not well traveled.
They don't need to travel. The United States has so much. He's like,
I feel like Europeans don't understand how big the United States is. Basically
going from one state to another is like going from one country to another in
Europe. He's like, so stop saying that Americans aren't traveled. They just
can travel within their country and get so many different things. And it's so
true. I mean, I like to go outside of the country too,
but I haven't gone to too many places myself, because I have gone to
amazing places in the United States. That's a really good point. I never
thought about that. When you want mountains, I mean, like world class
mountains, there's Colorado, there's Montana, there's Wyoming. You want the desert
and hot you got Arizona, you got Texas, you got New Mexico.
You want tropical, You've got Hawaii and Florida. You want you know,
river and hills and things like that. You've got Minnesota, You've got Tennessee,
you want the great planes you got Texas and Kansas. That's the Grand
Canyon is like an epic thing that people come from around the world and it's
right here in the United States. I never thought about that one. We
don't need to be as well traveled because we've got it all right here.
Wow, that's really that. I'm gonna remember that. She goes on to
say, oh, we're done, so thank you, Alli, I appreciate
that one. Next one, guys emailing about an odd experience I had while
I had the doctor with my husband. I'm gonna check the wave for him
really quick, Jenny, to make sure we're still good. Okay, good,
because we get nervous sometime, but we're not recording it and it's like,
no, okay. My husband was sick and he said he was going
to urgent care. I was still around after my first ultrasound with my baby
yay that he wasn't able to get off in time for so I tagged along
for his apartment. The appointment, the doctor touched his knee every time she
walked by him, so four plus times, and then when she checked for
straps, she stood up on the exam table footstool, so she was standing
directly in between his legs. She touched him a couple of other times where
she didn't need to. I wasn't gonna say anything because I'm not jealous of
a middle aged doctor with my husband. But after she left, he was
like, was that really weird? I felt like that was weird. Now
me and my husband both have a personality where we don't like being touched by
people except each other. Baby number four on the way, lol, So
this was weird or was it weirder just us? I'm not going to complain
about her, I'm just curious. I do have a take on that.
I've had doctors reassuringly touch me when I had my recent colonoscopy and indoscopy.
Both times when they wheeled me into the operating room just before they gave me
anesthesia, the doctor would come in and say, Hey, I'm doctor so
and so I'm gonna be taking care of you. You're gonna do great,
and he would kind of like pat me on the hip or on the side
or on the shoulder. I don't remember, but I thought that was very
reassuring. Also, that could be her motive. Also, I used to
work with a woman who was middle aged but used to be I'm sure a
smoke show, and I think that, and she still was very flirty,
even though it felt kind of weird that she was fifty or so years old,
And it was kind of weird because she was flirty and would do the
touchy thing and that type of thing, and I thought that probably used to
really work for her back when she was thirty two. At fifty, it
came off as a little weird. So maybe it's possible that this doctor has
always been a little flirty and she still does it because it's always worked the
same way that Once in a while you see an older woman with a hairstyle
from nineteen ninety two and you go, why does she still have the same
hairstyle? Well, because it has als. She thinks it still works for
when I don't know what I'm talking about, Jenny, what do you think
I get the reassuring like maybe taps on the knee thing, It just seems
a little extreme to do it, like every time she walk past him.
The strip test thing is a little bit strange. I was trying to think
because as a female, I sit with when you sit on that exam table
saying I sit when my legs closed as a male, usually you guys are
more of a spread a little bit kind of when you sit, but maybe
not. It's just like more comfortable a lot of times for guys to sit
that way. So I was like, well, that's weird that he was
spread open with his legs and she got in between it. But that is
probably where she would go to do it. But the fact that she was
standing on a stool on top, like the whole picture I'm getting from that
was a little bit strange to me. It seemed a little extra. But
yeah, I don't know the answer to that. I would say it is
a little bit odd though, that she was doing it. It is a
little bit and I can't figure that part out. And I just wonder if
she's just one of those people that doesn't really have any boundaries. Yeah,
like a close talker. Some people don't like to be touched, like Tina
does not like to be touched, does not like to be hugged. I
know, I forced hugs on her, and she's a get away And that's
just funny because most of us really like hugs. And like last night at
girls' night out, a few women, probably a dozen or so, would
say, can I hug you? And I'm like, well, yeah,
of course. And some people are just touching people and some people are really
just not I don't know. That's interesting. I'm really glad you're not going
to complain about her because it doesn't sound like I mean, especially because you
were right there with him. I'm one hundred percent certain that she was not
trying to be in any way over the line. Yeah, I will say
that if the tables were turned and that was a male doctor with a female
patient and she was alone, then it'd be a little concerning, like a
little extra to But even then would Okay, let's say, Jenny, let's
say you get a doctor, Let's say he's forty five years old, then
he touches you like a little too many times and then stands between your legs
while he's doing the throat culture, the strip exam or whatever. Would that
concern you? Probably, especially if I was by myself. I only go
and see female doctors. It just makes me much more comfortable. So I
don't know exactly how I would feel. It's just that you're in a lot
of times you feel like very vulnerable in a doctor's office, So I think
I would feel uncomfortable if it was me alone with the guy in the office
and him doing that. Yeah. I wonder if a lot of doctors won't
even see a female patient, especially if they're a guyno doctor without a nurse
in the room. I don't know there's a lot of guys that go into
gynecology anymore, probably because I think women prefer this, you know, the
upcoming generations prefer a female guynecologist. Yeah, I think so. I don't
know if a lot of guys do. I will tell you had a weird
experience of the doctor a few years ago. They had me put on the
gown, you know, the little cloth gown you're naked underneath it, and
and I put it on, and it, you know, ties in the
back and the doctor comes in. I said, why does it? Why
does my gown open in the back, And he said, because mine opens
in the front. True story, Jenny, True story. Like it might
have been a joke, but that's what your doctor's doing. I'm definitely not
seeing him. He takes that little hammer and he taps me on the knee
with it, and I said, how what was that for? And he
said, that's because you never call me back. Oh, I'm doing ambiguously
gay humor here, and that's probably very dated and inappropriate. But Jenny laughed,
So cancel Jenny. Jenny, You're canceled Jenny for laughing at the inappropriate
