WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.280 And here comes the Minnesota Goodbye. Let's dive right into the content written by 2 00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:07.599 you, because remember you are the writers of the show. Thank you so 3 00:00:07.679 --> 00:00:11.279 much. And we are still working on the stickers that say official staff writer. 4 00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:14.400 And Susan was trying to design one last night that you go to these 5 00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:17.920 apps online that's like design your own sticker and you can put whatever you want 6 00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:21.480 on there. You can say, like, you know, Jenny's jailbirds and 7 00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:24.679 you can have a little clip art picture of a jailbird or whatever. But 8 00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:28.160 she's just not happy with it. So we're still working on that, but 9 00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:32.240 it is coming. First one says, please don't say my name Ryan show 10 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:35.280 crew. You guys are absolutely killing it with this new setup. Thank you 11 00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:40.119 for continuing to rocket even when rolls change. Smiley face emoji, thank you 12 00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:44.520 very much. My husband and I are in the position to potentially purchase a 13 00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:48.520 family property in the near future. It is beautiful, has some makreage, 14 00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:53.320 great place to raise our family and forever home. The only thing I'm struggling 15 00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.759 with is the fact that it's in my hometown. My hometown is fine, 16 00:00:56.799 --> 00:01:00.000 don't get me wrong, but I struggle with the idea of living within the 17 00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:06.840 same thirty mile radius my entire life. I know you guys are all transplants 18 00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:08.519 to the Twin Cities, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts and opinions on 19 00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:11.959 a third party that has no stake in the decision. Would you be disappointed 20 00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:15.640 living in the same town you grew up in? Would you feel like you 21 00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:19.560 missed out on the opportunity to create a life elsewhere? Thanks for doing what 22 00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:23.159 you do every day. You're the best, Anonymous. I moved away from 23 00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:27.680 my mom and dad's home in my hometown in Colorado Springs when I was twenty 24 00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:33.879 one years old. My biggest regret was missing all of the years with them, 25 00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:37.200 because I didn't. I saw them twice a year for the rest of 26 00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:40.120 my life, maybe a little bit more as I got a little bit older 27 00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:42.840 and I could afford to go see them more often. But yeah, I 28 00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.920 went from seeing them every weekend or every couple of weeks to want a couple 29 00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:49.480 of times a year. I'm really glad that I've got to live in other 30 00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:56.280 places. But if you love your hometown and this is your forever home and 31 00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.439 it's beautiful and you like it, I would say it's not terrible what do 32 00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:02.519 you think, Jenny, I was going to say, if you like your 33 00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:07.680 hometown, then go for it. Yes, personally, I'm not a huge 34 00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:10.560 fan of my hometown. I am very happy I got out and like experience 35 00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:15.120 more and gotten to like a big city and stuff. But that's like my 36 00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:19.360 experience. That's not like I don't think you should go off based off of 37 00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:22.280 that. But I also I'm not sure because she didn't give all the irky 38 00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:25.159 I'm not sure who it is give all the details of if they've lived elsewhere 39 00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:28.960 already, because it kind of sounds like I'm moving back. I don't know. 40 00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:30.719 I'm a little confused. It doesn't sound like she's ever lived or they 41 00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:36.439 I'm not sure whether they have lived anyway. It says I struggle with the 42 00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:39.919 idea of living in the same thirty mile radius my entire life, which could 43 00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:46.800 either mean that's where they would you know, that's the right, they're moving 44 00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:50.800 back to the same town, or maybe they've never lived away from hometown. 45 00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.599 I would just say that it's good to get out of your hometown for a 46 00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:55.199 little bit, but that doesn't mean you have to do it for forever. 47 00:02:55.719 --> 00:03:00.360 So but if you're happy with your hometown, and you like it and still 48 00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:04.240 go out and see the world and not live elsewhere. You have to go 49 00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:07.080 move somewhere to be able to experience the world. So I say go with 50 00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:10.840 it. If you like your hometown, it's a good opportunity with the property 51 00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.800 or whatever the situation is, I'd say go for it. And here's the 52 00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:20.680 thing. If you are in a position to buy that, you know you 53 00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:23.800 could always get I mean somewhere down the road you can get like a I 54 00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.039 don't know, a winter home in Arizona or a winter home in Florida or 55 00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:30.800 something like that. And here's the thing. Also, you are under no 56 00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:32.080 obligation to stay in that home for the rest of your life. If you 57 00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:35.159 live there for ten years and you go, you know what, it's not 58 00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:38.199 us anymore. You can always move, which is easier said than done. 59 00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:45.000 But you can always move. Next one, Hey, besties, I want 60 00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:47.319 to comment on what Dave said a few days ago about Carson not living in 61 00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:54.159 Minnesota anymore, because we saw him over the weekend in Las Vegas and we're 62 00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:57.599 driving home from the airport and I said, you and I, Susan have 63 00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.159 got to get used to the idea that Carson doesn't live at home anymore. 64 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:05.080 He lives in la he doesn't live at home. He's not coming home for 65 00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:09.879 more than a couple of days to spend. He doesn't live at home anymore. 66 00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:12.159 And she started to cry, and she said stop it, and I 67 00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:14.639 said, well, okay, I'm not going to keep on if it's making 68 00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:16.399 you upset. But it was true, and it's kind of a realization that, 69 00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:20.399 you go, my kid doesn't live at home anymore. As someone who 70 00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:24.439 moved out of state four and a half years ago, it's frustrating when my 71 00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:28.480 parents say when you come home, when they mean back to Minnesota, because 72 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:31.439 I don't call Minnesota home anymore. Home is where my apartment, my partner, 73 00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:35.120 and my cats are. So thank you for having that conversation with Susan, 74 00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:39.560 because Carson will really appreciate that, and it's a subtle way of showing 75 00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:44.199 that you respect his choices. Drake, I feel your pain about apartment hunting. 76 00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.079 It is the worst. I haven't lived in Minnesota for a few years 77 00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:48.800 now, but I found that Roseville was one of the cheaper cities while still 78 00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:53.920 being central and close enough to the city. Maybe look in Roseville for something 79 00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:58.439 that is not egregious. I don't know what the word egregious means, but 80 00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:00.480 I've heard it before. Do you know what agreges me? I don't know 81 00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:01.920 what it means either, but say I've heard, I've heard about it, 82 00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:06.240 know what it means, but I'm impressed with your vocabulary. One last note. 83 00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:11.000 Months ago, during the height of the Chumba casino ads, the first 84 00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:14.959 time somebody wrote about it, I cackled because I've been contemplating writing in about 85 00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:16.879 it too. Will they still play those ads? The other day I heard 86 00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:20.680 a new one about a product for thick discolored toe nails, and I just 87 00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:24.800 about threw up. Somebody told me that when they said it's like the gold 88 00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:30.519 bond commercial where it's like it's disgusting, I thought it was so funny and 89 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:32.079 disgusting. I had to write in to see if anybody else has heard those 90 00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:36.759 ads anyway. I love you all. Staff writer Laurel. Thank you Laurel 91 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:41.839 for being a staff writer. And I've heard about those ads, but I 92 00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:46.879 have not heard them. But leave it to good old iHeart to play a 93 00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:53.720 disgusting ad. But also thanks to the Toe Fungus Company for sponsoring the podcast. 94 00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:58.279 So appreciate that. My name is Madison. This is kind of an 95 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:01.000 on air but this is interesting. Madison is asking if she can come in 96 00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:04.480 and do a paper on us within the next months. I'd like to set 97 00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:09.279 up a morning show where I can observe the show and interview Dave Jenny Drake 98 00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:11.720 about their jobs. The opportunity not only to meet you guys, but to 99 00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:15.000 learn more about a radio show I listened daily. It would be amazing. 100 00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:17.759 Thanks for taking the time to read this email. Please reply as soon as 101 00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:20.480 possible. Can I forward this to you, Jenny, and then you'll get 102 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:24.319 back to her. Okay, So Madison, I don't know if she listens 103 00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:28.720 to the podcast, but I'm absolutely flattered when somebody wants to come in and, 104 00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:30.800 like, you know, do something about our show. I'll just tell 105 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:35.240 you a quick little story. Years ago, two students came in and they 106 00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:39.800 were probably high school, like ninth grade, tenth grade, and they came 107 00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:43.480 in to interview the show, observe the show. They came in and they 108 00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:47.879 basically were so bored. They had like a legal pad that they never wrote 109 00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:53.720 anything on. They were bored. They looked around. I think they pulled 110 00:06:53.720 --> 00:06:56.560 out their phones after a while, and they were just bored. And I 111 00:06:56.600 --> 00:06:59.959 could tell this was an assignment they didn't really want to do, but apparently 112 00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:03.439 the teachers stuck them with going to the radio station. But Madison, if 113 00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:08.560 you want to come down, we will absolutely set that up. Okay, 114 00:07:08.839 --> 00:07:17.040 let me find another one here. This one is about hypochondria, so let's 115 00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:20.720 do it. Listen to the podcast. You're talking about hypochondriacs and lumps and 116 00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:24.480 where your mind goes when you're going to see your doctor, because mine always 117 00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.040 goes like, oh my god, I've got a tickle in my throat. 118 00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:30.399 Of course it's cancer and I'm going to die. I better get my affairs 119 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:31.959 in order. Oh my god, I've got a pain in my big toe. 120 00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:34.519 I'm sure my foot's gonna have to come off. I'm sure this is 121 00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:38.839 what my mind does. I got to share my thoughts about my brother in 122 00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:42.879 law. Listen to this. When I first started dating my husband about eleven 123 00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:46.000 years ago, he told me that his brother had just been diagnosed with Parkins's 124 00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:49.959 disease. Well, it turned out not to be true. It went nowhere. 125 00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:53.079 Then we moved out of state, and I swear about once a year 126 00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:56.839 my husband would get off the phone with his brother in tears because his brother 127 00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:01.040 told him that he has another life threatening illness. He doesn't tell anybody else 128 00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:03.000 in the family, just my husband because we live so far away. I 129 00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.560 am the one left taking care of my distraught husband. It sucks. Most 130 00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:11.240 recently, a few months ago, my brother in law told my husband that 131 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:15.680 he has leukemia. Oh my god, this crossed the line, as my 132 00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:18.800 daughter has been battling leukemia since twenty twenty one. He told my husband that 133 00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:22.360 he had a follow up schedule with the doctor for a month out to get 134 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:26.279 a bone marrow biopsy. What the actual f That's when I knew it was 135 00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:28.319 made up. My daughter wasn't even allowed to leave the hospital when she got 136 00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:33.919 her diagnosis. Treatment began immediately, and the bone marrow biopsy took place right 137 00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.639 away. My husband loves his brother so much, but I'm having the hardest 138 00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:43.399 time dealing with this constant attention seeking bullshit. Who okay, Glad I got 139 00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:46.840 that off my chest. Also, the commercials are absolutely popping up mid sentence 140 00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:50.720 on the regular this week. Thanks for reading, love y'all. I'm gonna 141 00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:56.879 keep her name anonymous because it's a unique name. If I think it's interesting, 142 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.759 I don't really know at extent of a hypochondriac. But there was somebody 143 00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:05.879 who used to work here, and she was a lovely person, but she 144 00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:11.399 had every disease there was. I remember one time they called an ambulance because 145 00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:16.559 her feet were swollen and she was certain that she was like a needed immediate 146 00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:20.279 medical care, so they called an ambulance to come to the radio station because 147 00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.559 her feet were swelling. And I think she's still that way. She's always 148 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:26.919 like, you know, this is bothering me. I can't do this anymore. 149 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.480 And so I think some people are just that well, some people really 150 00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:35.159 do have health problems, but some people don't, and they just want the 151 00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:39.240 attention. Probably who is going to say that is crossing the line from that 152 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.120 person who emailed then, because clearly that person is making shit up if they're 153 00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:46.639 saying things that don't even make sense to what they're saying is wrong with them 154 00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:52.000 with the leukemia stuff. So that person, I think honestly needs some mental 155 00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:56.399 health because that's like really fucked up to continue and to worry your family about 156 00:09:56.399 --> 00:09:58.799 something that's not even true. Like I know someone who has gone to the 157 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:03.159 are probably four or five times this year because this person does think that there's 158 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.879 something wrong with them pretty often, but that person doesn't drag other people in. 159 00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:11.559 I think that this person legitimately just has anxiety and has these like anxiety 160 00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:16.320 attacks, and then it heightens his hypochondriac side of things, Okay, And 161 00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:20.240 so I know that like he's trying to work on that because he realizes and 162 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:24.200 he acknowledges that he's hypochondriac. He acknowledges it, Okay, Okay, he 163 00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:28.039 does, And so I don't know. I don't know if there's been further 164 00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:33.519 conversations with the brother in law and telling him he needs to stop because it's 165 00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.840 really like unfair to her husband and the rest of the family. I don't 166 00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:41.159 know that somebody like that can stop. Honestly, I think that there's some 167 00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:46.600 people just love attention and they'll do just about anything they can do right or 168 00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:52.600 wrong to get attention. I'll tell you a quick story, and I've talked 169 00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:56.320 about this before. When nine to eleven happened, there was a woman who 170 00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:58.919 claimed that she was in the tower. She burned her arm very badly. 171 00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:07.120 Her husband died in the other tower, and she became a survivor's group like 172 00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.320 leader, and she became a big kind of a public figure because she had 173 00:11:11.480 --> 00:11:16.080 survived in the South Tower and she got out and her story was very tragic 174 00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:20.519 that she lost her fiance and it was all a lie. It was called 175 00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:24.879 there's a book and a movie on whatever platform you go on, the woman 176 00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:28.159 who wasn't there. And and she got away with it for three or four 177 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.279 years until people started to go, wait, your story's changing and it doesn't 178 00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:35.480 quite add up. And they never could find this fiance that supposedly died. 179 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:39.960 She made she made that up. No, she made the whole thing up. 180 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:45.799 And the big question is why why? And they the psychologists say, 181 00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:48.879 some people just will do anything for attention. Yeah, and that's what she 182 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:54.639 wanted. Next email, curious if disposable vape pins is going to be the 183 00:11:54.639 --> 00:12:00.000 next problem. During COVID, we had disposable mass laying all over parking lots 184 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:03.559 and along the curb side near traffic lights. Now it's vape pins. They're 185 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.159 everywhere. Next time you stop at a light, look at the littered vape 186 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:11.240 pins laying around. So do we know why people find it most wise to 187 00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:15.600 toss him out the car window once spent? Is there a certain way to 188 00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:18.519 dispose of these? It would be that should be followed like batteries, I 189 00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:20.720 mean, a person is expected to take them to the local best buy and 190 00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.559 recycle them. I don't know. I have you noticed that vape pins are 191 00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:30.159 being thrown like out of the window. I haven't anyone that vapes that I 192 00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:33.960 know, which aren't too many people They have like reusable ones, I swear, 193 00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.240 so I've never I don't even know if I recognize. I mean, 194 00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:39.960 I'm sure it looks exactly the same as a regular vap pen, but I 195 00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:41.840 don't know if i'd know if it was a disposable one. I think the 196 00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:45.919 ones that are disposable, they look like a cigarette, and you suck on 197 00:12:45.960 --> 00:12:48.279 them, they light up and then they last for a little bit, then 198 00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:52.720 you throw them away. I hope that doesn't become a thing, because that's 199 00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:56.720 awful. It is. But I'm going to guess that the same people who 200 00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:00.399 don't probably have a problem with littering or throwing cigarette butts, we would do 201 00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:07.720 the same thing. Okay, ran story. We were talking about practical jokes 202 00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:13.200 gone too far, and the practical joke that spurred all this was Carson's Buddies. 203 00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:16.399 When he got back from his trip to Asia for five weeks. They 204 00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:18.480 said, oh, man, something's wrong. We got to tell you. 205 00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:20.080 No, we can't tell you what's wrong. We gotta tell you, we 206 00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:22.679 gotta tell you. Know, we can't tell you. And he's like, 207 00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:26.440 what tell me? And they kept him hanging for a day and he got 208 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.440 pissed. It turned out their practical joke was, Carson, your bathroom is 209 00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:35.039 haunted. They all live in a house together, which they kept in God 210 00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:37.639 And I said, that's a practical joke. That should have gone about five 211 00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:41.240 minutes. And it went on for a day, and it really upset Carson. 212 00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:45.279 Me and my cousin were aout twelve years old. We were at my 213 00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:48.679 grandma's for Thanksgiving. We got the bright idea to take the deer head mounted 214 00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:54.360 on her wall and peeking around the corner as Grandma's walking down the stairs. 215 00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:56.240 Can you imagine you're walking down the stairs and a deer is peeking around the 216 00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.759 corner. She screamed and fell down the stairs. She ended up being okay, 217 00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:05.000 but me and my cousin got lectures from everybody in the stink Eye for 218 00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:09.279 the next few years worth of gatherings. I know it's delayed, but I 219 00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:11.159 only listened to the podcast because I worked the late shifts, so I'm snoozing 220 00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:15.559 when you guys are busy entertaining. Thanks for making my nights go faster. 221 00:14:15.720 --> 00:14:18.679 That is from Chantel Chantel. That is very funny. Thank you, And 222 00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:22.200 let me check our time here, because we want to make sure we get 223 00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:24.360 another grandma. She's just trying to, like minor business, be a good 224 00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:26.759 grandma. And then you guys have to pull a little prank like that, 225 00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:30.759 and I get at your kids you do shit like that, but I would 226 00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:33.440 I would cry. I would feel so guilty if my grandma had fallen like 227 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.679 that, and I would just cry and be like I'm so sorry, Oh 228 00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:41.960 my god, yeah, no kidding. When my brother was in we called 229 00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:45.919 it junior high, but he was in like eighth or ninth grade. He 230 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:50.799 was in the art room and at school and there was a floor to ceiling 231 00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:54.840 window in the art room and a kid was about to sit down on a 232 00:14:54.919 --> 00:15:01.279 stool and my brother pulled it out from underneath him. The kid fell through 233 00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:07.879 the window and cut his arm wide open and had to get like, I 234 00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:11.679 don't know, it's been so long. Twenty stitches, thirty stitches tends to 235 00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:16.200 I don't know. The kid was pretty seriously hurt because my brother, as 236 00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.320 a joke, pulled his stool out from underneath him, and the kid didn't 237 00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:24.919 bounce off the window. He fell through the window and gashed his arm. 238 00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:28.000 There's a practical joke that my brother felt so bad about it, I didn't 239 00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:31.279 even bring it up with him anymore, because, you know, even though 240 00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:33.639 that was a long time ago, it still upsets my brother that it was 241 00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:39.480 something that went so wrong. I have a similar story did. It's not 242 00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:41.960 as bad, but it was pretty bad. I was in sixth grade and 243 00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:45.759 our lockers at the time were like half lockers, so you could have one 244 00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:48.360 a little lower, one a little higher, and the guy Jordan Peterson next 245 00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:52.399 to me, he had a higher one, and so as a joke, 246 00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:56.120 I kind of like moved his locker a little bit like in it was like 247 00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:58.840 wide open, and I moved the door halfway in the door, yes, 248 00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:03.679 sorry, And he had been bending over getting something out of his backpack, 249 00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:07.480 and he stood up and just nailed the corner of the locker on his head 250 00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:12.120 and started bleeding. And he didn't like feel a lot of pain for it. 251 00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.320 Luckily he wasn't crying or anything, but he gave me the worst look 252 00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:18.320 in the world. And I obviously wasn't trying to injure him. I was 253 00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:22.039 just trying to fuck with him and like shut his locker a little bit, 254 00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:25.440 and then he had to get some staples in his head. So yeah, 255 00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:29.679 I oh, I felt That was another instance where I cried and I was 256 00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:33.279 like, I'm never I'm going to get detention for over you. That was 257 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:36.960 in sixth grade. Sixth grade, so ten eleven or something, But yeah, 258 00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:40.960 I felt so bad. And all it was supposed to be was like 259 00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:44.000 us messing into each other because we were like brother and sister. We'd always 260 00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:45.720 like to argue out our lockers. We were kind of friends, but we'd 261 00:16:45.720 --> 00:16:51.759 like mess with each other. And yeah, I feel bad for a little 262 00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:55.320 sixth grade Jenny because you were just you didn't mean to hurt anybody, and 263 00:16:55.360 --> 00:17:00.159 you were such a kind person, which brings me to something that I I 264 00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:02.279 didn't mean to save this for last, but I want to cover this one 265 00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:04.400 because there's something on here that applies to you. Okay, you ready, 266 00:17:06.079 --> 00:17:08.359 So this one starts off. Hi, you three delightful people want to drop 267 00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:12.400 a line and say thank you for being kind to polyamorous people when that topic 268 00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:17.200 comes up on the show. I notice you're all very respectful. I mean 269 00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:21.359 we're respectful to anybody's whatever sexual you know, likes, dislikes, or whatever. 270 00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:23.799 As long as it's legal, we really don't care. It might not 271 00:17:23.920 --> 00:17:27.680 be our thing, but if it's your thing, that's your thing. It's 272 00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:33.880 kind of like you might love mushrooms on your pizza, which I think is 273 00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:37.920 disgusting, but I know you have a right to like mushrooms on your pizza. 274 00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:41.960 It is tough being polyamorous. It is getting better, though. There 275 00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:45.599 are abusers in every walk of life, but when it's a polyamorous person and 276 00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:48.599 an abuser at the same time, it really gets noticed. Makes it kind 277 00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:52.119 of hard for the rest of us. It is much better to be out 278 00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:56.079 either way feels more comfortable. So thank you for being so nice. Here 279 00:17:56.119 --> 00:18:00.039 are two things from listening to the show. Number one, be positive. 280 00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:04.160 Oh, I've two are things that I've learned from listening to the show. 281 00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:07.079 Okay, be positive. Look for the good, or at least don't look 282 00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:11.920 for the bad first. That is a habit we all could work on. 283 00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:15.079 You're more positive than me, but that's a very good point. Be positive, 284 00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:18.119 look for the good, or at least don't look for the bad first. 285 00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:22.240 There's something that I love to say to myself. We're about as happy 286 00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:26.359 as we choose to be. If you are always unhappy, you're always bitching, 287 00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:30.319 you're always you are, you've chosen to be unhappy, probably subconsciously. 288 00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:34.200 But we're about as happy as we choose to be. This is one that 289 00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:40.079 applies to you, Jenny. You don't have to say just kidding after every 290 00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:42.440 time that you are kidding. It makes it more funny if you don't clarify. 291 00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:45.160 Because Jenny is so nice, she'll say something like, God, that 292 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:49.359 shirt looks awful on you. Just kidding, And it's like, it is 293 00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:55.559 funnier if you are a little bit more brutal because I know you're kidding. 294 00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:59.119 You're my friend, and people listen to the show know that you're kidding stuff. 295 00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:02.440 You're like, oh odd, what happened to you? You look like 296 00:19:02.519 --> 00:19:04.599 shit today? Just kidding. I mean, that's not a good example, 297 00:19:04.640 --> 00:19:10.039 you know what I mean. That's actually mean. But it's like, you 298 00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:11.440 know, I don't want to invite you to my wedding because you would eat 299 00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:15.240 all the cake. Just kidding. Well, you don't need to say just 300 00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.200 kidding. Yeah, so don't do that. I know I'm guilty of it 301 00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:25.119 because I just I get scared sometimes because somebody from Montana that just moved here 302 00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:27.839 might have just tuned in and the first thing they hear is ME insulting you, 303 00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:32.759 and then they don't get my humor or the sarcasm or something, which 304 00:19:32.880 --> 00:19:34.799 we've learned sarcasm doesn't work very well on the radio. You've got to be 305 00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:38.400 pretty clear. Was stuff like that? I mean, kind well, here's 306 00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:42.920 it. Here's an example, like it came up like whenever a year or 307 00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:48.279 so ago whatever, somebody said Jenny has a horse face. So and Jenny 308 00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:49.640 didn't have a horse face. She's beautiful, but somebody said she did. 309 00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:53.000 And then I think Steve or me or Falon or piled on you and we're 310 00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:56.440 like, Jenny, I wouldn't say I have a horse face, but that 311 00:19:56.559 --> 00:20:00.039 saddle looks really nice on you. And that could sound kind of mean, 312 00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:04.640 but it's so obviously a joke that you know, I wouldn't at the end 313 00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:10.400 go just kidding, But I will say that if it just came up out 314 00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:12.440 of the blue, like you know, Jenny has a horse face, I 315 00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:17.839 would feel bad because it sounds like such a mean thing to say, so 316 00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:21.799 anyway, thanks for that. I appreciate it. And that one is the 317 00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:26.000 last email today on the Minnesota Goodbye.
