WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:03.960 I have ideas for the show, and I have learned that if I don't 2 00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:07.679 write them down or record them into my Apple Watch Voice memo thing or my 3 00:00:07.719 --> 00:00:10.800 iPhone voice memo thing, yeah, that I will forget them. And then 4 00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:13.640 the only thing I'll remember is I had an idea, yes, and I 5 00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:17.440 won't remember it. Last night, I woke up the middle of the night, 6 00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:21.440 couldn't get back to sleep, laid there an idea popped into my head 7 00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:27.879 that was so glorious that I thought, there's no way I'm going to forget 8 00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:33.640 this idea, and you forgot it. And I woke up and the only 9 00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:40.240 thing I could remember was I had an idea. And I remember as I 10 00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:43.960 lay there, thinking, Okay, it has to do with a certain body 11 00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:48.640 part. Let's say your knees or something. So if I rub my knee, 12 00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:53.960 it will help me remember what the idea was. Sure, nothing, 13 00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:58.280 nothing. Only I woke up remembering that I had an idea that I loved 14 00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:02.280 and it's gone. Did you you should keep like a patent paper next to 15 00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:07.079 your bed. I've done that before. The problem is if I have an 16 00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:11.280 idea that I dreamed, then sometimes I do. I'll wake up and I 17 00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:15.280 don't want to wake up enough to write it down. Sure, So I 18 00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:19.640 think I need a tape recorder, Yes, a genuine tape recorder, a 19 00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:25.040 giant one with reels of tape on it, and a microphone that I hold 20 00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:29.040 that i'll read my ideas into. I feel like that would take just as 21 00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:32.760 much effort to wake up. Now you're on your tape recorder. Yah it, 22 00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:34.319 you're yeah, You're right. I would away talk into your watch like 23 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:40.920 a little. I don't wear to bed, though, charge your I don't, 24 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.719 not hard. I've actually thought about getting two Apple watches, one to 25 00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:49.400 wear to bed in case I have ideas. That's the boogiest thing I've read. 26 00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:53.480 I know I'm not gonna do it anyway. I did have a dream 27 00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.799 the other night about my son Chase, and it was he won a bunch 28 00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:00.400 of contests and I don't know what the story was, but he won this, 29 00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:02.840 then he won this, then he won this, and the winner is 30 00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:07.120 Chase go lightly and I'm like, what the fuck, Chase, how are 31 00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:09.719 you winning all this? Any interesting dreams lately, Bailey, I honestly don't 32 00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:15.680 dream a lot. The only one that I remember the I remember waking up 33 00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:21.400 because I was scared only because in the dream, I remember seeing a woman 34 00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:25.879 who was clearly like dead, and someone grabbed her and her back was turned 35 00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:29.159 away from me, and they grabbed her and pulled her up, and like 36 00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:31.039 blood came out of her face. Oh, and that's all I remember. 37 00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:35.360 But I didn't see her face. I just remember blood coming out and her 38 00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:37.719 back was to me. And that's the only thing I remember, because I 39 00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:43.039 was scared. But I don't really dream a lot anymore. I dream usually 40 00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:46.400 very very pleasant dreams, and I wake up and like the the like a 41 00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:50.639 happy mood, a very calm, happy mood. Yeah, And then I 42 00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:53.159 have no idea what I dreamt about. Yeah, ever, a calm and 43 00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.759 happy mood. It's just like a calm and yeah. So I don't. 44 00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:00.000 I rarely have nightmares. Knock on wood. I know some people, do 45 00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:02.800 you ever sleepwalk? No? Never? Never? I never have either, 46 00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:07.800 I know Vontas I heard that too. Yeah. Our neighbor next door, 47 00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:14.400 a woman around my age, she was sleepwalking and she fell down the stairs 48 00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:17.599 and broke her fucking leg. Yeah, sleepwalking, I don't wake you up. 49 00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:23.080 Yeah, And uh, and you know, I mean not that anybody 50 00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:28.360 who is sleepwalking is abnormal, but she's just a normal neighbor and she slept 51 00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:30.199 walk and you know it's like, what do you do? You like velcrow 52 00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:34.520 yourself to the bed. That's so. There's a comedian. His name is 53 00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:38.599 Mike Bribiglia, and he has really awful sleepwalking and he has this whole show 54 00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:42.639 about it. But he literally has to like he zips himself into like a 55 00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:46.879 wow, like a sleeping bag and has to like for like, yeah, 56 00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:50.240 kind of vell crow himself down onto the bed so he doesn't get up and 57 00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:53.199 walk out the window because he walked out of a window at all. Woww 58 00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:59.120 Yeah, because he's that big of a sleepwalker. I couldn't what that would 59 00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.400 Oh, that would make me so nervous. Yeah, I'm very glad that 60 00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:05.400 nobody in our family sleepwalks. And I don't either. Yeah, there was 61 00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:08.680 one thing that's going to bring up. And this is just kind of it's 62 00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:13.639 not I'm not complaining. I'm just kind of rolling my eyes a little bit. 63 00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:19.360 Once in a while somebody will ask, Hey, we're doing this big 64 00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:24.439 charity thing. Can I come on your show and talk about it? Or 65 00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:28.800 we're doing a big i don't know, like a big walk, like a 66 00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:33.079 charity five K or we're doing a big charity garage sale or a big charity 67 00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:39.680 flea market, or you know, can I come on the radio and talk 68 00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:44.040 about it? And it doesn't annoy me, It just makes me roll my 69 00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:46.319 eyes a little bit, because if you listen to our show at all, 70 00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.920 you know, we never have guests on to talk about something we can talk 71 00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:53.879 about ourselves, sure, because and the reason we don't have guests on is 72 00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:56.639 because a lot of the time they're not very good. And that sounds really 73 00:04:56.759 --> 00:05:01.120 arrogant. But just because you know something about the big Walk five K charity 74 00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:06.560 vaccination, raby shot fundrais or whatever it is, doesn't mean that people are 75 00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:10.199 good on the radio. And most people are, Let's be honest with you. 76 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:14.000 Most people are not good on the radio, just right, just like 77 00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:17.560 the same way I would not be a good obstetrician. There is a town, 78 00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:23.040 there is a skill set to it, and most people find it uncomfortable 79 00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:25.279 to do the things that you need to do to sound good on the radio. 80 00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:29.000 They don't want to talk into the microphone. They literally will stand over 81 00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:33.199 here away and they won't talk with enough you know, energy, and so 82 00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:36.360 then we tell them get closer to the microphone and they do for about three 83 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:41.120 seconds. It'll be like and then they do this. And I'm not making 84 00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:43.639 fun of people who are not good on the radio. It's just not a 85 00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:48.160 natural skill set and so and and then people will get nervous and they'll clam 86 00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:54.040 up. And some people are naturals. We've had people on the phone on 87 00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:59.480 like Benjamin who comes in and does trivia. He's a natural performer. Ham 88 00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:02.360 I'm excited him. I've never met him. Hey you met Benjamin. Oh 89 00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:05.560 you're gonna love him. He's a great guy. But there, I don't 90 00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:10.480 know. It's just interesting that Again, I'm not complaining and I'm not ridiculing 91 00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.800 these people, but it's like, do you ever listen to our show? 92 00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:17.839 How often do you ever hear us have somebody on with the Coon Rapids yard 93 00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:23.399 sale fundraiser? Not often In the time that I've been on. We've had 94 00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:28.920 one charity person and that was like that push up contest thing, and I 95 00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:31.639 just remember being like, what is happening? Why is this? How why 96 00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:34.079 is this going on? Well it was the Burpie thing, yeah, the 97 00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:38.399 Burpie thing. Yeah yeah, yeah they were nice, Yeah they were nice. 98 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:41.519 Yeah, they did fine, they did fine. We had somebody on 99 00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:44.199 from Livia a couple of weeks ago, and she was great. She talked 100 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:47.680 about the the B twelve light bo injections. She was nervous though, but 101 00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:50.439 she was nice. Yeah, she was nervous. But I would be nervous 102 00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:53.839 too. If they were gonna have me on Carrie Levin right now to talk 103 00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:57.800 to Belinda about gardening, I'd be nervous stare at the camera the whole time. 104 00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:01.600 Oh all right, Let's move on to some of the emails, which 105 00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:06.160 are the heart and soul of the podcast. Dave, Jenny Vaughn to Bailey. 106 00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:10.399 I've been listening for years. I love the show. Dave, you 107 00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:14.160 did it again. You landed on a great lineup. Ah, you did 108 00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.480 it. Oh you guys, Oh you got a lineup? Yeah? Oh 109 00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:23.839 you and vont Oh. I was like, what light what? I don't 110 00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:26.959 know if people realize how rare it is to keep a show humming for as 111 00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:30.439 long as you have. I want to say something about your job offered to 112 00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.399 the Hawk to a girl, and how brilliant that was. Oh, I 113 00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:38.279 like this already. You took something that everybody was talking about it and you 114 00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:42.079 related it to katieble Tobe, who else does that. Most other shows in 115 00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:46.560 town spend their time being silly or doing the same bits we hear on every 116 00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:48.959 station all over the country. But you figured out a way to make it 117 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:54.720 uniquely katib tob. And as for the haters who thought it was awful you 118 00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:58.600 offered a woman a paining job, Shame on them. Do they actually think 119 00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:01.879 that everybody with money should be ashamed of how they spend it? So if 120 00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:05.480 I take my husband out for his birthday and spend two hundred dollars, that's 121 00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:09.120 shameful and I should have donated it to charity. Get fucking real? Can 122 00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:16.519 I say that? Sorry? I just did wow? Nice? Oh and 123 00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:20.040 it should be pointed out that you've got a ton of advertising on TikTok and 124 00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:26.879 Instagram and how much money did you actually spend? Nothing? Not a penny. 125 00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:30.240 Brilliant. By the way, I'm not in your target demographic, as 126 00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:35.399 I'm forty nine years old, but I own a marketing firm and always interested 127 00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:37.679 in what businesses do to get attention. Yes, you ruffled some feathers, 128 00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:43.639 but it was harmless and most importantly successful. Good for you from Claire. 129 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:46.200 Now see that gives away a lot. We know that Claire is forty nine 130 00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:52.240 years old and she also owns an advertising agency. I wonder if people are 131 00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:54.279 going to figure out who that is. We can look her up, but 132 00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.679 she's probably smart and did not give her real name, or she lied about 133 00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:01.639 her age. She made the whole thing up. Betsy could see that a 134 00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:05.759 marketing firm at all. Yeah, it could be, but thank you for 135 00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:07.159 that. I appreciate that. I'm going to find my tabs and open up 136 00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:13.480 another email. Hold on, here we go since this topic comes up off 137 00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:18.200 and I want to share this story with you. Over the weekend, we 138 00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:22.639 were up at my parents' camper. They lease a specific lot of the campground. 139 00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:26.440 Some guys driving his dog around on a golf cart stop to let the 140 00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:30.639 dog off so the dog could poop right in the grass of our camp site. 141 00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:33.159 We immediately started yelling at this guy, telling him pick it up. 142 00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.320 He just sat there looking at us, and he said, I don't have 143 00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:41.279 a bag. I made sure to get a good picture of this asshole. 144 00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:43.960 After having my family pull me away because I was yelling at the guy, 145 00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:48.000 I got a bag and I picked up the poop. I then proceeded to 146 00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:50.679 take the bag of dog poop and show people the picture of him to see 147 00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:54.440 if they knew where his campsite was. People didn't even ask questions, just 148 00:09:54.559 --> 00:09:56.200 oh Stan, Yeah he's the first one at the end of this row. 149 00:09:56.279 --> 00:10:01.639 Oh Stan wasn't there. So I tripled tie the bag of dog poop on 150 00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:05.080 the door of his camper and I went about my day. Some people won't 151 00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.480 agree with my actions, but it was really damn satisfying and I have no 152 00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:13.440 regrets. Hopefully he learned a lesson. Love you guys, Lexi Fromatzigo. 153 00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:18.360 I support your decision one hundred percent, Lexi. Yeah, that's such a 154 00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:24.080 slice. Lexi'd be like, I'm gonna go find this guy. Hell yeah, 155 00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.919 absolutely, have you seen this man with the poop? Like, have 156 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:31.039 you seen this man? I don't know. We talk about poop and stuff. 157 00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.840 We really burn people out on poop and poop bags and dogs off fishes, 158 00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:37.840 so we're not gonna I mean, I could go on for a long 159 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:39.720 time, but you've heard me do that before. It's always relevant. Good 160 00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:46.879 story, LEXI, Love you. Next one, a quick question about the 161 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:48.720 mixtape game. I think it is already know I know the answer. How 162 00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:52.720 come the mixtape game is not in the podcast? I was so excited when 163 00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:54.600 you announced it was coming back because it was always one of my favorite bits. 164 00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:58.480 I only listened to the podcast and then bummed. I haven't been able 165 00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:01.320 to hear it the past few weeks. Is it because you are not able 166 00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.320 to play music clips on your podcast? The same thing happened on the Bobby 167 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:07.480 Bone Show. At first they could only play five seconds of a song, 168 00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:11.480 and now they cannot play song clips at all. Is this an iHeart decision 169 00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:16.279 or some behind the scenes music industry thing. Is there any loophole you can 170 00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:20.639 find to bring back to the podcast? My apologies, you already answered this 171 00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:22.639 one. I guess I'll have to start tuning in live on Friday mornings. 172 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:26.960 Yes. Also shout out to my college room mate Anna in Savage, Minnesota. 173 00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:33.159 We are both Dave Ryan and Minnesota. Goodbye super fans, A right 174 00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:39.159 Dart Liquors. Happy Monday from Olivia. Yeah, you nail that we cannot 175 00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:43.320 play music clips on the podcast because we don't have the licensing rights to play 176 00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:46.799 them on the podcast, only on the radio. And like I think, 177 00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:52.279 for a time I was trying to like get it worked in especially like if 178 00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:56.159 we were talking over the music, but then it turns into like an editing 179 00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:58.159 nightmare to get all of it to edit it out, So you just take 180 00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:01.919 out the entire mix. The whole thing has just gone. Now. Yeah, 181 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:05.919 And that's kind of the way it is, which is it's a shame, 182 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:09.919 but I guess that artists want their slice of the pie. We use 183 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:16.000 their music on our podcasts, which is funny because a lot of music artists 184 00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:24.039 will blatantly steal a hook or a loop from somebody else's music, make a 185 00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.440 song out of it, and then get paid millions for it, and then 186 00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:35.399 never pay the original artist. So here we are advertising their music. No 187 00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:39.360 shit, it's true. They should be paying us. Yeah, okay, 188 00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:45.879 so this is from Remember last week we talked about somebody who was like putting 189 00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:48.519 their foot in their mouth, and they said they were in awe of the 190 00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:54.679 fact that somebody in my family told her seventy five year old uncle here just 191 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:58.519 you were just a male carrier in Vietnam. Oh yes, I remember. 192 00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:01.559 And then we talked about foot in mouth moments and I said, I wonder 193 00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.639 what they're referring to. So they wrote back they said, I was excited 194 00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:07.919 to hear my email on the Minnesota Goodbye. It quickly dawned on me that 195 00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:11.879 I did not explain the scenario very well. We are not Vietnamese. The 196 00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:16.840 uncle was drafted at twenty years old and sent to the Vietnam War, and 197 00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:20.679 after having an average experience as a drafter soldier, being sent to Vietnam, 198 00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:24.679 to be accused of simply going over and being a mail carrier for the military, 199 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:30.039 I thought was absolutely appalling. I could say more, but I better 200 00:13:30.080 --> 00:13:35.840 not. Just thought i'd share a little family drama with you, because it's 201 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:39.679 not like he just went over to Vietnam to sat on his ass. You 202 00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:45.320 know, we are generation. You know, my generation missed Vietnam by probably 203 00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:52.240 five ish years, maybe a little bit more. But you think about somebody 204 00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.879 who is so young and how that they could have been drafted in the Vietnam 205 00:13:56.919 --> 00:14:01.440 War. I think of somebody like Carson Age, and I think about like 206 00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:09.279 Carson getting his haircut, taking a flight to training at like Fort Dix or 207 00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:15.559 whatever, and being shipped off to Vietnam, and how awful and scary that 208 00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:20.559 is, And that is so far removed from our lifestyle. We can't even 209 00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:24.159 imagine. There hasn't been a draft and active military draft in like fifty years. 210 00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:26.679 People are always like teasing it like there's gonna be a draft soon. 211 00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.559 There's gonna be a draft. I doubt it. No, there's too many 212 00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:35.039 volunteers now too well, volunteers are down, there's no question volunteers are down. 213 00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:37.960 But they don't fight with soldiers the way they used to. They fight 214 00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:43.279 with drones and they fight with you know, airplanes and tanks and things like 215 00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:48.039 that. So there's not as many like you know, soldier foot infantry soldiers. 216 00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:50.639 Yeah, which is good, but it is a little bit for I 217 00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:56.600 remember when I was in high school, they were like my friends were saying, 218 00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:58.159 Oh, there's gonna be a war. There's gonna be a war. 219 00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:01.039 There's gonna be war, and there wasn't. And then a couple of years 220 00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:03.120 ago when eracted something, they said, oh it's going to be World War 221 00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:07.879 three. And then Ukraine and then Israel. They're like, oh, it's 222 00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:09.720 going to be a war. It's going to be war. But I think 223 00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:13.480 one of the things that we all want to avoid is a war with actual 224 00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:18.720 infantry on the ground. Pass and that's going to kind of wrap it up 225 00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:22.279 for the Minnesota goodbye. If you have any emails, you know, it's 226 00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:26.600 so funny Bailey because some days we get eight emails, twelve emails, other 227 00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:30.159 days we get one, sometimes none, And I think it's sometime it's a 228 00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:35.360 matter of you know, whatever we say that might inspire or motivate you to 229 00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:39.559 send in an email. But if we didn't inspire you today, then bring 230 00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:41.039 up something that you want to talk about. Yeah, if you want to 231 00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:45.480 bring up oh, I don't know, over tourism. Here's one that I 232 00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:48.519 think is interesting. Over tourism is a problem. I saw it on the 233 00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:52.759 news the other night. They said, because we haven't traveled a lot since 234 00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:56.399 before COVID, and now everybody's like, you know, well, let's go 235 00:15:56.440 --> 00:16:00.320 travel. So all these touristy spots that are supposed to be remote, you 236 00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:06.960 can't get near him anymore, like Yosemite or Yellowstone or Glacier. Sure is 237 00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:11.919 just crowded with people in places where you go to get away from crowds. 238 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:17.200 Wherever you saw or read this, did they have like solutions for over tourism 239 00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:19.240 or they just like highlighting the problem? They do. Actually they say that 240 00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:23.000 they're now issuing permits. Okay, so for example, if you want to 241 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:29.200 go you know, like I don't know to what's the Blue Lagoon in Iceland? 242 00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:33.440 Sure you, Now this is an example. Instead of going for free 243 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:38.000 or five dollars, it's now one hundred and five dollars to go. This 244 00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:41.200 is just an example. Yeah. Yeah, And they said there used to 245 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:47.679 be licensing for tour guides in like Amsterdam or somewhere, and it was five 246 00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:52.799 dollars to become a licensed tour guide in Amsterdam. Now the fee is like 247 00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:56.320 five hundred dollars. Wow, so there will be fewer licensed tour guides. 248 00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:02.840 Sure. So you can't really tell people don't but if you charge them more 249 00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:06.720 or make it so you have to have a reservation. Like in Colorado Springs, 250 00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:11.359 there's this very very popular attraction called the Manitou Incline, and it is 251 00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:17.880 a steep former railroad track that is straight as an arrow that goes up the 252 00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:21.400 side of a mountain. And it used to have two trains on a string, 253 00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:23.720 one train at the end of one string and the other train at the 254 00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:26.920 other end of it, and each train weight would pull each other up the 255 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.680 mountain, so in other words, one would go up and one would come 256 00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:36.480 down. And it collapsed in a mudslide probably thirty five years ago. So 257 00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:38.839 they tore the trains in the track out, but it's now used as a 258 00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:44.720 hiking trail. But it's so popular that you now have to make a reservation. 259 00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:47.480 Oh, it looks cool. I just googled it. Yea, it 260 00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:49.680 looks kind of fun. Yeah it is. It is probably the most popular 261 00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:55.680 hiking trail and one of the most challenging in Colorado because it is so steepah, 262 00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:59.279 and it's about a mile and a half, and it's so popular and 263 00:17:59.319 --> 00:18:02.599 people it's right there in the city, so you drive like ten minutes from 264 00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:04.720 your house and you're at the foot of the incline. Wow. But they 265 00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:08.720 basically instead of making it free for all, you have to reserve your spot. 266 00:18:08.880 --> 00:18:11.839 So when you get there, I don't know if there's a gate or 267 00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:15.759 a turnstile or what, but you have to enter your taking tickets right exactly. 268 00:18:17.359 --> 00:18:19.119 Go check it out and what else you want to talk about. Send 269 00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:25.319 your email to ryanshow at KDWB dot com. Seriously, I love how many 270 00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:27.680 people love the Minnesota Goodbye. That's that means a lot to us. We 271 00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:33.000 have said this is probably my favorite part, maybe sometimes even more fun than 272 00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:36.559 the show, because it's a little bit more like what do you want to 273 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:40.680 talk about. So it's entertaining to us because we don't know what you're going 274 00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:42.119 to say, and we can just go on and on and on and on 275 00:18:42.160 --> 00:18:47.240 and on. Essentially, we can just keep on talking exactly. Let's do 276 00:18:47.359 --> 00:18:49.160 that for the next fifteen minutes. All right, we'll wrap it up and 277 00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:55.079 we'll see you tomorrow. Send your emails to Ryan Show at KDWB dot com.
