And here we go with the men ahsota goodbye y'a all ready, yeah,
okay, here we go. This just occurred to me this morning and my
way into work now reading emails in case you don't know, maybe you've never
listened, or you're a new listener. Most of the Minnesota goodbye is emails.
But then again Fallon and I have our witty banter and we respond and
tell you things that are we're thinking about. And a lot of the time
we can swear we can be more volgel volgeal. We can also talk about
things that we can't usually talk about on the radio, like let's, for
example, talk about the iHeart Cruise. Now I'm going to bring this up
because I think it's hysterical. This is not the word I would use.
It's a yeah. So you know, we always talk about iHeartRadio and how
cheap they are, and you know, it's kind of a running joke.
But I will only say of all the radio companies, we are probably the
least cheap because our company, we do a lot of innovative things. We
do the iHeartRadio Music Festival, and you know, we pay our power bills
on time. The lights are still on and we generally like working for iHeart
Radio. But we just complained because it's like, yeah, we don't have
money to give away car or we don't have money for like you know,
like I don't know T shirts or whatever. But the funny thing is the
iHeart Radio yacht apparently was out somewhere. Was it in Europe or grease Shirt
France? Okay, And I don't know that they own it or they just
put an iHeart light sign on it, but they were in the news last
night because the iHeart yacht was out with a concert performance by Lizzo and the
DJ that they hired was Paris Hilton, and I guess they had to stop
the party because some partygoer got drunk and fell off or tried to fell off
the yacht because they had too many people. They went over their capacity basically,
so someone almost fell off. I think, so then the cops had
to come. Now I'm not complaining, I'm only saying, where did that
yacht come from? I thought we were broke. I didn't know we had
money to go for a yacht ride over in France. Most of the time,
when people complain about things that are higher ups do, I can understand
reasoning because I'm like, I get it, you have to spend money to
make money sometimes and not everyone's always going to get a raise. But that
one did annoy the ass out of me because I was like, really,
basically all of our executives who say we don't have money or on a freaking
yacht and can okay no other comment. Yeah, so you know, but
and I get it. You know, they probably had a lot of clients
out they had to woo clients and a wood home at a local Jimmy John
Well, I mean they could with a gift basket of fruit basket or a
cookie bouquet. But also I think that it's very possible that we do have
some brilliant people that work for a company and a couple of dumb asses too,
But we have some brilliant people, and I think probably to lure them
to work here instead of Coca Cola or Colgate Paul Malive, you got to
say things like some of the perks are free parking, free coffee in the
break room, and the cruise on the iHeartRadio yacht. Because let's say you're
being wooed by Coca Cola and Colgate Paul Malive, you got to you got
to decide, well, who's going to take me on a fucking cruise?
I heart? You know, so maybe that's what it is. Do you
think that's what it is? Let me ask you a question, what would
be the best perks? And you can join it on this one too.
I've went to and it's not uncommon, but it's not common a workplace.
There was a place in Plymouth called Marketing Architects, and I don't even know
if they exist anymore, to tell you the truth, but I went there
to record some commercials a few times and they had a break room all the
free food you wanted. Walk up and get a free pepsi bag of chips.
Lunch time, they had a chef come in would make you lunch.
You could bring your own or you could get it. You could you know,
buy ala carte or you could get the chef special. And I'm like,
they're like, do you want to stop in the break room and get
a milky way and a Pepsi? I'm like for free. They're like,
yeah, we get it for free. What the seriously? Yeah? Yeah?
I would love free stuff like break break room free food. And I
would also love like we used to go on Disney World trips every year,
Disney and Universal trips every year. We take listeners. That was the funnest
thing. Ever, What would you like as far as perks, I would
like a car service to take me to and from any work event. That'd
be great. That would be like so great because I saw that on The
Morning Show, Jennifer Anderson's character gets picked up by a car service and taken
in each morning, and I'm like, oh, that will be nice.
I don't know. I mean, yeah, free snacks would be great,
but then I don't need that. I don't need free access to service,
you know, I just don't. All right, here we go with an
email occurred to me this morning I drive into work. I'm currently pregnant with
my third child, and I just got a cute little note on one of
my apps about them being able to hear outside voices and noises starting this week
during my pregnancy. As I'm listening to show, I think to myself,
Wow, I listened to the Morning Show on the podcast literally all day at
the office, in the car to and from work, basically all day.
Then I think, holy Hannah, my kids probably think Dave Ryan's voice.
It probably knew Dave Ryan's voice at birth better than they know their own fathers.
Then I realized all of my kids love the car throughout their infancy while
all my nieces and nephews screamed, Dave, I think my babies were and
are comforted by your voice. I think my kids actually think that they're your
that you are their daddy. L ol. Happy hump day, you know
what. I would be honored, but I'm not buying a birthday presents,
so I'm not doing it. Next one says, what a girl Jenny was
almost lost? Remember she had an offer to go to Buffalo. I emailed
you reminding you of what happened with another previous member the Dave Ryan Show.
They decided to leave, and only then did you make offers that should have
already been made, But they left anyway. That is true. I don't
want to bring up their name, but that was a whole ugly situation,
and I don't want to talk about it. I said not to do the
same thing with whether girl Jenny. Take care of business now so that the
same situation is not encountered. Let me tell you I would trust me,
I would double jenny salary if it was in my power. It ain't my
power. It's not And Jenny, Jenny's listening right now. Don't get a
smirk on your face like you're gonna screw us over. But I will tell
you that, if you've got a job offer, I would fight tooth and
nail and probably fire fallon in order to keep you here. Yeah, honestly,
I don't blame him. That would make the most sense. Oh,
I want I want to lose with you guys, any of you guys.
Hey tell you I'm gonna give you. I thought about this last night,
and I'm not worried about losing you because I will do whatever to make you
happy. I thought Jenny's only worked on a couple of morning shows. And
I think that people when they leave this show, they're surprised how awful other
radio shows are to work for. And what I mean by that is,
you know, we have a really good working situation here, pretty good environment
of creativity slash freedom, slash you know, salary whatever. But I think
that a lot of people leave this show and they'd go work another radio station.
They go, what the fuck this place is a toilet. And I
don't think people realize everything from the host or the co workers. It's a
pretty unique situation here. Everybody on this show is a good human and sometimes
I've worked with and I won't name names, but I know somebody who left
this show and went and worked for another show, and they thought they would
just be in hog Heaven and they hated it because they did not get Mike
time. They had to sit back and laugh at the host stupid jokes,
and they didn't get treated the way they thought they should be treated. Yeah,
and they're like, I didn't realize how good I had it on Katie
WB. You need to keep that in mind next time Buffalo calls you,
Jenny, it's like, yeah, Jenny in the Morning Zoo, we want
to hire you out here. Well, if it's for Jenny in the Morning
Zoo, Yeah, But no, I don't think I'm going back to Buffalo.
Where are you going? That sounded weird. I'm not. I'm not.
I'm staying right here for now. That's fair. Okay. This is
another one. This one says I don't have a crush on a co worker,
but I have a crush on my son's gymnastics coach. Because we brought
up crushes on co workers on my son's gymnastics coach. I would never do
anything about it because I don't want to make things weird, but I definitely
admire from afar, says this woman to put it in context. Second question,
how do your significant other and family members having to feel about having to
be on the radio or being part of a bit Susan's been around a long
time. It is evolved with Dave and the show Andrew and now. Andrew
knew Jenny before the show, so he probably knew a little bit about what
he was getting into. But for Fallon, how long did it take for
you and Jake to talk about your job and him being part of the show?
Here and there have a great day from I'm not going to say her
name. I don't think we have like an actual legit conversation. I dated
Jake for I don't know, three or so months before I even brought up
that I was dating him on the radio. So I dated him for like
a handful of months kind of like imprivate if you will. And then I
don't know, I feel like it was pretty quick that I've told stories about
him, But then I don't know, Jake just doesn't care. And it's
interesting because Jake seems like a quiet person, so, but he loves attention.
When people are like, oh, I feel bad that you put that
video of Jake jerking on you know, TikTok, I like police. He
loves attention. If he really hated it, I would never do that to
him. I would have enough respect. So yeah, I don't know,
he doesn't. He just doesn't care. So it wasn't like a actual conversation,
I guess Susan, I don't remember how I started implementing her on the
radio, but radio is evolved over the years, and it was never You
would never put your spouse or your partner on the radio. You just wouldn't
unless it was for some sort of a wacky bit. I don't think Susan
appeared on the radio until maybe here fifteen or twenty years ago. She just
never did because we didn't do radio like that. Back then. We did
a lot of funny spots and commercials and parody songs and goofy stunts and that
type of thing. But now that we talk more about our personal lives and
our misadventures and your misadventures and your personal life, then she's on and she
totally gets it. She is a performer. She knows that that's part of
what makes the show interesting is when she's on and she performed. She doesn't
say I don't want to be on. She totally gets it. I have
worked with somebody who I've worked with several people in radio. They're like,
my girlfriend does not want me to talk about her at all, or my
husband won't let me talk about him on the radio, and I'm like,
that sucks. Yeah, you know, and I think that's one of my
conditions. If you're going to be on a radio show like ours, you're
going to talk about your partner because that's part of our lives. And Andrew,
of course doesn't mind at all. I mean, he doesn't love being
on the radio because he doesn't like public speaking. He's actually like terrified of
public speaking, and that's kind of what he's doing when he's on the radio
because he doesn't super love it. But yeah, I mean, he did
know what he was getting into by dating me, but he got a little
bit of a vacation for a while when we started dating because I wasn't like
Steve was still on the show back then, So when you guys at X
Factor, it wasn't me and Andrew. It was Steve and Christie. Yeah,
and so then when Andrew had to start doing it, he was like
a little surprised by that, but I mean he got used to it.
Yeah, And I think, you know, he might not like it,
but he's been very nice and you know, at least pretends that he doesn't
mind doing it all. Right, next email, say as I was list
of the episode you guys talking about the tree trimming prices and Dave's basement and
laughing a little. Dave, I think he got off easy with your basement.
Right now, the price is going to run about twenty thousand dollars or
more. They did do and his best dose inspection on two month Tuesday,
I think it was, and a woman came by cut some holes in the
basement wall and I and if it's his BESTO, you have to have it
his best to a certified team come in to remove it because it's poison and
toxic. I thought they're all in cahoots. She's gonna fake find asbestos and
then hire her friend's company to No. It came back and it was negative
for asbestos, and I was like, that's a good sign. Here was
a bad sign. Had some guys go out to the house last night and
immediately got a bunch of warnings from my security system that said, somebody's tampering
with your security system. Tamper alert, tamper alert, tamper alert, tamper
Literally every thirty seconds I get a tamper alert. So I called the guy
and I said, Hey, are you having any problems with my security pad?
I didn't want to say, hey, are you tampering with my security
pad? You have any problems with it? He said, it's going off,
but I'm not having any problems with it. How do you make it
stop going off? So I gained my pass code. Still got the tamper
alerts every minute or so until one this morning, and I thought, there's
no way that somebody's tampering with it. I call security company. They said,
something jostled at loose. Have him try to screw it back on the
wall. I'm like, well, not gonna yeah, yeah, all right,
here we go. Next one O that same one, Dave, You
got off easy with your basement. I know those numbers can seem high,
especially if you haven't done any major projects in the last five years. Home
projects are so expensive these days, and it's hard to find places to cut
in the budget because each line item seems necessary. Take whatever you think is
going to cost and double it. If you think you can do your kitchen
for seventy five thousand, it'll probably be one hundred and fifty thousand between labor
costs and supplies. It's tough to find a place to cut the fat without
cutting your project to part. Good luck with the mold from Rochelle. Thank
you, Rochelle, Great news, anything else? Oh? Okay? One
more email. Not sure if it's appropriate for to share or talk about,
but I stumbled across it. E White's update on him talking about last night
being his last live show. I was curious, who's gonna be taking over
for his evening night show? And when the time it's right, where is
he going? I can't say where he's going. UM, this is from
bestie, my thank you, my UM. I will only say, yeah,
they're gonna hire somebody, I'm sure, but they're going to take their
time and hire the right person. And other than that, I don't really
know. I mean, I've got I've got ideas who they should hire,
but I don't know if some people are going to cost the people that I
want, would to hire, would cost probably too much. And you know,
as we know, my heart's got a yacht. They got to fill
up with gas. So and that's gonna do it. For this, for
today's men, is so to goodbye.
