WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:02.879
All right, here we go with
a Minnesota goodbye. You know what.

2
00:00:02.960 --> 00:00:05.000
On the way into work this morning, I thought of something we should talk

3
00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:09.679
about, and of course now I
can't remember at all what it is,

4
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:12.240
so that's all right. We'll just
go to the emails and here we go.

5
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:16.600
Rachel writes in good Morning, David
Bailey. Hi, I never thought

6
00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:19.120
there'd be a day that I called
my mom and said, Mom, you're

7
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:21.559
gonna be so proud of me.
I was just on Katie WGB and talked

8
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:25.280
about how I think Max from a
Goofy movie is hot. But today or

9
00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:28.519
yesterday, depending on when you read
this, was that day. I did

10
00:00:28.559 --> 00:00:32.640
google it, and yes, both
Rocks and in Powerline are dogs. The

11
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:37.000
Mickey Mouse world is just full of
animals. Makes sense. What an observation

12
00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:42.320
fun fact about me? Before I
went to teaching interviews, I would play

13
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:47.240
power Line song stand Out on repeat
to pump me up and get myself in

14
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:51.159
the right mindset to get the job. It was the perfect song. So

15
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:53.679
if you ever find yourself in a
situation where you need to stand out,

16
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:59.119
try listening to that bang Ah.
I already proudly displayed my staff writer sticker

17
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:03.599
on my water bottle and I hope
you have an amazing week. Right.

18
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:07.560
That's from Rachel. Do You reach
Out? That is a really great song,

19
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:10.439
but I too, I is a
better song. I think. Give

20
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:14.079
me a little bit more of either
one of those. We're doing it too?

21
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:15.959
Ah? Is it a power line
song? Yeah? That's those are

22
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:21.159
both power lines Stana. I wish
I knew the actual words to any of

23
00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:23.480
those songs, but I don't.
I watched that movie with Allison when she

24
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:26.120
was little several times, and I
always felt bad for Goofy because he wanted

25
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.040
to you know, Max was such
a little asshole. Yeah, and it

26
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:34.200
really made me feel bad for Goofy
because he was really trying to bond with

27
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.719
Max. Yeah. And it's hard
to bond sometime with your kids and you

28
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:41.079
try to find something they like to
do. And well, I say,

29
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:45.519
it's hard, it's not. You
find something they like to do, sure,

30
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:48.519
and then you bond that way.
But I agree. I never I

31
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:52.480
did not like watching the Goofy movie
because it made me so uncomfortable because poor

32
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:57.079
Goofy was just like shot on by
Max the whole time. Now, uncomfortable.

33
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:00.680
Bailey and I in Vaughant thought of
a funny bit that we're never going

34
00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:05.079
to do because we you know,
we have a wicked sense of humor around

35
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:07.640
here, Like Fallon and I.
When Fallon was on the show, we

36
00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:09.719
have a TV up in the corner
of the screen of the room and we'd

37
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:13.520
be watching, you know, like
the Today Show or whatever, and Fallon

38
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:16.039
and I had a goofy bit that
we used to do where if a woman

39
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:21.639
was an astronaut and she's on the
news, Fallon would be like, look

40
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:27.199
at her dressed up like an astronaut, Like they'd have a woman astronaut,

41
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:30.199
of course, and we'd laugh.
And if there was a woman cop,

42
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:32.000
I'd look up and I'd go,
look at that. She must have borrowed

43
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:37.919
her dad's cop uniform, And so
we'd laugh because it was so over the

44
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:44.400
top sexist, stupid doctor, So
write a lady doctor, can you imagine?

45
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:47.520
So Bailey and I in vant we're
talking about how here would be a

46
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:53.240
really funny bit where you get a
big dick pic on your phone and then

47
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:55.319
you go, Bailey, look,
there's a cute little baby panda, like

48
00:02:55.719 --> 00:03:00.240
a panda, and then I show
her yes, and so it's a dick

49
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:04.039
pic. And so we've been doing
it all morning without a dick pic.

50
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:06.680
No, but I'll hold up my
phone and I'll like, oh, Bailey,

51
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.360
look at what Susan found a target. And then I'll show Bailey.

52
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:15.120
And so then Bailey started joining in
too, so go give me around here,

53
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:16.360
go ahead, You're like, oh, Dave, I saw this really

54
00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:19.800
beautiful poem. I'd love for you
to read it. Here you go,

55
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:24.639
Oh my eyes, it's a dick
pic. And so we actually thought about

56
00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:30.000
doing a skit about it, and
we'd walk around the station, like showing

57
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:35.080
different people and like as if that
were a funny bit where it's actually it's

58
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.719
a very Michael Scott is kind of
a bit, yeah, where Michael Scott

59
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:40.719
would walk around the office and say, oh, I'm going to show this

60
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:45.000
to Pam. Oh, Pam,
look it's a kitten and it's a dick

61
00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:50.120
pic. And Pam is like oh, and then Michael would be like,

62
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:53.800
oh, that's very funny, right
exactly? Did you watch The Office?

63
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:58.879
I live on the Office. I
love the Office so much. Yeah,

64
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:02.680
I love that too. So all
right, yeah, Angela writes in,

65
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:06.439
and she says, waffles. We
made waffles for dinner last night. It

66
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:11.000
came up on the show today.
I love waffles. I usually put whipped

67
00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:14.680
cream on my waffles with syrup.
I also love putting blueberries in my waffles.

68
00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:16.720
I would love his taff Rider sticker. You know what, I'm gonna

69
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:19.399
get you one. She's like,
I have something to say about waffles.

70
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:21.600
Here it is thank you. There, it is very brief. Thank you.

71
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:29.839
Susan made cheddar tree cheddar cheese broccoli
chicken noodle soup yesterday. It was

72
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:33.040
so good, and she said,
I think I know the reason why.

73
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:40.720
She put a quarter cup extra of
salt into the soup in the crockpot.

74
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:44.639
I don't know if she'd like tipped
the salt shaker upside down or what,

75
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:46.000
but she said, once it was
in there, what could I do?

76
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:49.439
What are you going to start over
again? So it was really good because

77
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:55.519
there was a quarter cup extra of
salt. Salty soup of salty, so

78
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.680
good. I love salt, but
I get salt hangovers now where if I

79
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:00.560
eat too much salt, I wake
up and I feel like I have a

80
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.959
headache. I get that. It's
so weird. It just started recently,

81
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:05.879
so I'm old now. I guess, well, no, you're not.

82
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:11.839
Well. It's funny because Bailey and
I were talking about this earlier. You

83
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:15.720
were talking about how you were showing
me a picture of you and I met,

84
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:19.399
you know, like we were at
a party or something with the station

85
00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:23.240
or something when you were twenty two. Yeah, and You're like, god,

86
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.680
look how thin I was. Yeah, Look how great my skin looks.

87
00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:30.480
My makeup looked amazing, Like,
no, you just weren't old yet,

88
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.040
like that's why. And I told
her, and I'll tell you the

89
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:40.639
same thing that one day, when
you're fifty two or forty three or whatever,

90
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:44.120
you will look back at pictures of
you today and go, damn,

91
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:46.560
I looked really good. And I
didn't know that I looked good because I'll

92
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.639
bet you, when you were twenty
two in that picture, you probably thought

93
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:54.839
I got a big, old fat
ass and I got crows feedby my ugly

94
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:59.639
I saw a picture of myself maybe
twenty years ago, and for the first

95
00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:00.680
time I know to crow's feet,
and I'm like, oh my god,

96
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:06.439
I got crows feet, and I
felt really bad that I had crow's feet.

97
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:10.800
And now it's like, I would
love to look like I look twenty

98
00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:16.839
years ago. Look at me then, So don't feel bad if you don't

99
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:20.680
like the way you look now,
because in ten years you're gonna look like

100
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:27.079
shit exactly. So we'll live it
up now, appreciate it now. Okay,

101
00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:29.600
I'm gonna skip that one. That
is more of a Jonathan Fogel question.

102
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:30.800
We're gonna move down to the ones
that I put a little flag on.

103
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:38.199
Here we go. I want to
start off by saying I was the

104
00:06:38.279 --> 00:06:41.800
kid with the cool bus driver back
in elementary school that had the Dave Ryan

105
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:44.160
in the Morning show playing on the
way to school. I'm now thirty one

106
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:48.920
years old. I listen to the
show every day Live Minnesota, Goodbye,

107
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:53.319
on the podcast Fallon and Jenny's podcast. I'm still fun and I try to

108
00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:55.839
listen to Fallon and Colt when I'm
able to. There have been a lot

109
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:58.959
of changes on Katie, but you'd
be lately. Some are sad Steve Otina,

110
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:00.480
Fallon Drake, but that's okay.
No matter what, the show will

111
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.639
be still be an amazing part of
my day. I love hearing all the

112
00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:08.279
new people on the show, Bailey
vont Aaron and as always, Jonathan Fogel

113
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:12.160
from Fogel Family Law. I've been
lucky enough to work with Fallen a few

114
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:16.079
times in my makeup artist hairstylist career
back in the day. I did her

115
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:20.959
makeup once again once which was super
fun. I also worked in an event

116
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:27.079
at a Veda's Arts and Sciences with
Jenny and Tina that said keep up the

117
00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:33.000
good work everyone, dart lick and
taking your kids to school, hashtag staff

118
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:40.720
writer, hashtag Jenny in the morning
zoo, and hashtag uh right. That's

119
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:43.759
from Tanner, Jay Tanner, j
thank you very much. You know,

120
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:47.920
the changes have been frustrating, But
the most frustrating part of the changes to

121
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:53.279
me is people thinking there's something nefarious
going on in the background. And that's

122
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:56.319
what really pisses me off. Is
like people, you know, change,

123
00:07:56.360 --> 00:08:00.879
they've sucked and there's been a lot
you know, Fallon and then Dre and

124
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:05.160
you know, I mean Steve and
then Tina. There's been a lot and

125
00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:09.920
it's been a period of a lot
of change over KTWB. But for the

126
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:13.800
most part, we've been really lucky
to have the same staff for many years.

127
00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:20.920
Most people at most radio stations the
entire staff turns over every three years.

128
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:24.480
Sure, here it just doesn't work
that way. But what really does

129
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:28.720
bother me is when people think,
oh, well, Dave couldn't stand Drake,

130
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:33.320
and so Dave had Drake fired.
Not the case. Did you know

131
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:37.159
that I loaned Drake not too long
ago, twenty five hundred dollars. He

132
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:39.120
said, Hey, I need twenty
five hundred dollars, and I said,

133
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.120
hey, no problem, I will
gladly. Maybe not gladly, but I

134
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:45.879
said I will loan you twenty five
hundred dollars. You wouldn't do that if

135
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:48.759
I didn't love Drake. I loved
Drake. People are like, oh,

136
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:52.200
well Dave couldn't stand Fallen or Fallon
couldn't stand Dave, and that's why she

137
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.440
moved to the afternoon. Fuck all
that shit. It just really pisses me

138
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:58.159
off, right, also, like
you don't have that kind of power.

139
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:03.879
I don't think, No, I
really don't. But I also I'm very

140
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:09.639
happy with how well I treat people. I treat people nicer than people treat

141
00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:16.320
me. I really do. And
I get tired of being nice, nice,

142
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.240
nice, and then people kind of
stabbing me in the back and and

143
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:24.960
to be nice and then be accused
of being an assholes Like, but I'm

144
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:30.240
not an asshole, and it really
is. So if you hear shit about

145
00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:35.679
me, just know that I think
they're the only people that don't like me

146
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.720
are people who are assholes anyway,
and they don't like the fact that I

147
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:48.679
probably call them on their bullshit.
Sure, so so get out god damage

148
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:50.000
all right, listen, Oh,
I know what I was going to think

149
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:54.399
of. This is my question,
sure that I was thinking about. On

150
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:58.000
the way into work. I heard
an ad this morning. I was listening

151
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:03.000
to a po podcast and I heard
an ad for another podcast that said,

152
00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:07.240
hey, join me on my podcast
three hours every week. I said,

153
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:13.720
holy fucking hour, snap and assholes. Holy fucking snap and assholes three hours

154
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.679
away. Three. So I thought, our podcast is usually about fifteen minutes,

155
00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:22.559
yeah, fifteen twenty should we make
it longer? And I'm asking you,

156
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:28.320
as you're listening, this is targeted
toward you and your lifestyle and your

157
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:33.559
experience. Would you like the podcast
to be longer? Would you like it

158
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:35.360
to be twenty five minutes or even
half an hour every day? Because if

159
00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:41.320
you want it, we'll make it
longer. But we have to have enough

160
00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:46.480
content. So if you if you
want the podcast to be longer, let

161
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:50.519
me know. If you think fifteen
minutes is the right digestible amount of time,

162
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.039
then let me know, interesting,
three hour seems way too long.

163
00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:58.559
Not doing three hours. Nope,
even three hours an hour. That's a

164
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:03.039
sweet spot because an hour's as long
as a television episode, or thirty minutes

165
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:05.759
long as a television episode. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think thirty

166
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:09.159
minutes is probably a good But if
you want it longer than fifteen minutes,

167
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:18.679
let me know. Ah right,
let's get get it much Sundays. If

168
00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.639
you tried to Lisagna, it's my
favorite. Got to bring up the latest

169
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:24.919
Chumba Casino ad because it's so absurd. I didn't think this company could get

170
00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:30.039
any more annoying. It starts with
Ryan Seacrest admitting that he's a fun fanatic.

171
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:33.320
First of all, this guy works
like ninety jobs. There's no way

172
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:35.360
he has any time for fun,
and if he does, it's not playing

173
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.519
fucking Chumba Casino. Next, he
explains that on the last recent flight he

174
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:43.159
was on, he looked over the
person next to him and it was so

175
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:46.679
crazy they were also playing Chumba Casino. Seacrest, come on, you're trying

176
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.159
to tell us something that you were
trying to tell us. You're flying commercial

177
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:54.200
and rubin elbows with lowly commoners.
I just don't understand why a gazillionaire like

178
00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:58.320
Ryan Seacrest is resorts of doing a
fake gass chumpb of casino ad. I

179
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:01.039
roll my eye so hard every time
I hear it, which is like ten

180
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:07.200
times every day. Ah right,
staff writer Molly, Molly, you know

181
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:11.600
what? You cracked me? The
fuck up? Chum but chum but Chumba?

182
00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.080
Is that how the jingle goes?
Yes, it is. It is

183
00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:20.080
the most obnoxious because I listen to
the show podcast after I'm done to see

184
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:22.960
if I to analyze how I did. M Oh yeah, yeah, sure

185
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:28.159
yeah. The Chumba casino ads play
absolutely constantly, constantly, and it's good.

186
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:31.159
That's how it goes. Chum but
chum but Chumba. I feel like

187
00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:35.039
I'm missing out. Hey, I'm
Ryan Seacres and I love Chumba Casino?

188
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.200
Do you Ryan? Do you?
No? You don't. I am a

189
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:43.679
fun addict. I'm so fun.
I think that is gonna be about it.

190
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:48.200
There are some longer emails and ones
that are a little bit outdated,

191
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:52.120
but they go back a couple of
weeks, so I'm not gonna I don't

192
00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:54.399
think I'm gonna do those. Let
me see if I can do this one.

193
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:56.519
Okay, here's a good one,
uh Dave. I planned on going

194
00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:00.240
to your book signing Saturday with my
almost two year old, but he ended

195
00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:03.080
up coming down with hand foot and
mouth disease, so we had a day

196
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:07.039
at home watching Blues Clues instead.
I just ordered your book on Amazon and

197
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:09.720
I will have to make my way
to another event so you can sign it.

198
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.799
Also wanted to rant for a hot
second about how many illnesses are running

199
00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:18.320
rampant right now. Just since January, We've dealt with an ear infection,

200
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:22.200
then I got strep throat twice back
to back. Then I had the worst

201
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:26.879
sinance infection in my life. Then
we all had COVID, and now hand

202
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:28.559
foot and mouth has been rough to
say the least. Have a great week,

203
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:31.559
rachel Is. I mean, you
know, I think it goes back

204
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:37.200
to when it's cold and flu season, everybody's indoors and you're coughing and spreading

205
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:39.679
and touching instead of being outside.
Have you ever had hand foot mouth disease?

206
00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.360
Don't even know what it is?
Oh God, it's awful. It's

207
00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:46.320
like kids get it a lot and
daycares and things. I had it one

208
00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.039
time because I was near a kid
who had it. It was probably one

209
00:13:50.039 --> 00:13:54.480
of the worst pains I've ever felt
in my life. My feet itched so

210
00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:58.600
bad, and it was when super
bas Nicki Minaj is super Baso. Yeah,

211
00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:01.240
and I couldn't sleep because that song
was stuck in my head and my

212
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:03.639
feet. It's so bad. Anyway, I looked it up and apparently it's

213
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:07.759
worse than shingles. Oh God.
Anyway, So handfot mounta disease, knock

214
00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:11.039
on wood. You never get it. It's awful. I've heard of it,

215
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:13.759
but I didn't really know that it
was a real thing. I literally

216
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:18.279
thought it might have been like something
that people made up. You get like

217
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:20.440
a rash all over your hands,
your feet, and inside of your mouth,

218
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:24.720
and mine were just mostly bad on
my feet and my feet looked like

219
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.559
the bad side of the Phantom of
the Opera's face, you know the Phantom.

220
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.679
Yea, yeah, that's what my
feet looked like because they were just

221
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:35.120
ravished by handfoot and mouth. Is
it? Where do you get it?

222
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:39.480
Is it flying a locker room floor
or no? I don't know. I

223
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:45.120
think it's like it's airborne, but
it's mostly kids who get it. So

224
00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:48.039
yeah, me and me and my
ex boyfriend had at the same time because

225
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:50.480
his niece gave it to him.
So it was like, how romantic is

226
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:54.639
this? And it's funny you remember
that Nicki Minaj was big, Yeah,

227
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:56.799
cause it was that's let's go to
the beach each let's go get away.

228
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:01.279
And that was stuck in my head
for the entire night time because I did

229
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:05.360
not sleep one wink because my feet
hurt so bad. Oh so it was

230
00:15:05.440 --> 00:15:09.440
just like, well they do like
ointments. My mom had, Like this

231
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:15.120
probably isn't the right thing, but
my mom had this anti anxiety medication that

232
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.000
she took and she just gave me
one of them. She's like, this

233
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:20.600
will make you forget that you itch. And it did, and it did.

234
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:24.600
Clonopin maybe that's what it was.
Yeah, Okay, it maybe fell

235
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:28.399
fall asleep instantly because I wasn't thinking
about my itch anymore. I got it.

236
00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:35.080
I took klonopin for anxiety about twelve
ish years ago, and it's so

237
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:39.240
it was so fascinating to me because
I would take like a quarter tablet,

238
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:43.399
little tiny tablet, little green thing, and I would take about a quarter

239
00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:46.240
of it or a half of it, and I could feel when it kicked

240
00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:50.919
in, like the anxiety part of
your brain shut off, melts away.

241
00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:52.399
It just melted away. Yeah,
that was the first day and last time

242
00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:56.200
I ever have had it. Probably
would do me good sometimes. Yeah,

243
00:15:56.240 --> 00:16:00.799
but you know what I'm not.
I'm how do I want to say this.

244
00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:06.279
I'm so afraid of becoming addicted to
anything. Yeah, I'm not ever

245
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:10.759
gonna say don't take these drugs,
but I will always say, at least

246
00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:14.960
to myself, don't become addicted because
something like klonopin I've heard, is very

247
00:16:14.960 --> 00:16:18.080
addictive like alcohol. Because you love
the way it makes sure. I guess

248
00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:22.080
that makes sense. Yeah, next
one, and we were talking about the

249
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.600
party that nobody came to, and
it all started with me talking about how

250
00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:29.559
I didn't want to do my book
signing and not have people show up.

251
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.559
You told a very sad story about
Mollie. Well, Mollie, I love

252
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:37.080
her, She's so great. Give
us a story again in case you missed

253
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:40.200
it. So Molly invited me to
her birthday party, probably in six or

254
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:45.519
seventh grade, and it was a
slumber party birthday. And when I got

255
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:48.360
there, like everything was set up. There was like snacks, games to

256
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:52.919
play, like it was, you
know, a big sleepover slumber party,

257
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:56.039
and I was the only one who
came. No one else showed up,

258
00:16:56.159 --> 00:16:59.039
and so we were just kind of
like, well, I guess we can

259
00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:03.159
just get started doing fun stuff.
And so we did fun stuff together and

260
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:07.559
then maybe two or three hours passed
and I started to get a stomach ache,

261
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:08.559
so I had to call my mom
to come and get me. And

262
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:11.920
I felt so bad because I was
the only person who went to her birthday.

263
00:17:12.599 --> 00:17:17.640
But it's fine now we're both we
both made it out alive. Well,

264
00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:22.839
what what puzzles me is that why
did so many people not go to

265
00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:29.119
Molly's birthday party? Yeah? I
mean did Mollie she was to ask around.

266
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:30.960
She was kind of like a weird
girl, but like, so was

267
00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:34.119
I. So I mean I was
having a great time. But yeah,

268
00:17:34.119 --> 00:17:38.480
we were both kind of weird girls. So maybe that's the reason why.

269
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:42.720
I mean, I've never had a
birthday I never had a birthday party when

270
00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:45.119
I was a kid, so I
didn't have the opportunity to have Stop that.

271
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.720
Okay, hold on, we're going
to talk about this on the show,

272
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.440
but I wanted a little bit.
I'm going to write this down right

273
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:56.880
now. Okay, great, your
name is Baby is Bailey? Bailey b

274
00:17:56.960 --> 00:18:02.519
Ail. Why had a birthday?
Ay birth I'm writing it down. My

275
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:04.599
sister had one, just one singular
one. Talk to me about why you

276
00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:07.400
never had a birthday party? I
just never did. I feel like,

277
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:11.880
Okay, I love my mom and
my dad, but my parents were divorced.

278
00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:15.640
But I love my mom so much. But I think a lot of

279
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:18.200
birthday parties are put on the parents. Your parents have to plan the birthday

280
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:23.559
party for you and then send out
the invites to your little bitty friends and

281
00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:26.680
then you know, make it happen. You know, buy all the snacks

282
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:30.039
and all of the games and whatever. And my family never did that.

283
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:34.720
So I've had cake on my birthday
with my family. I used to share

284
00:18:36.279 --> 00:18:38.319
like birthday time with like my grandpa. We'd go out to dinner with my

285
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:41.839
grandpa. That was like for my
birthday. But I never had a birthday

286
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:47.079
party. Ever. I don't know
what to say. I just found this

287
00:18:47.160 --> 00:18:49.559
out about you. Well, So
when I turned thirty, because that's what

288
00:18:49.599 --> 00:18:52.920
I mentioned last week too. When
I turned thirty, I was going to

289
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:56.440
throw myself a big birthday party.
It was going to be a huge deal,

290
00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:59.039
and I was going to say,
like dress up, like it's two

291
00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:02.200
thousand and two, going to do
like fun stuff because I never got to

292
00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:04.160
have one when I was a kid. And then it was COVID, so

293
00:19:04.319 --> 00:19:07.640
no one came to that birthday party, which was outside and like out a

294
00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:14.839
brewery for ventilation. So all of
my plan went down the drain. When

295
00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:18.480
is your birthday? September nineteenth?
Okay, if you and I still friends

296
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:21.160
in September, you'll throw me a
party. We're gonna throw you a motherfucker

297
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:22.880
of a birthday party. Yeah.
We're gonna gonna rent out Valley Fair.

298
00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:29.799
Yeah, and we're gonna have a
like a helicopter drop balloons and a giant

299
00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:33.039
cake that sounds dope with like a
sailor popping out of it. Hot sailor,

300
00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:40.680
a hot sailor, who take it? It sounds fine? Okay.

301
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:45.319
I wrote that down because I found
that so interesting. We I had birthday

302
00:19:45.319 --> 00:19:48.839
parties when I was a kid.
Small. I never had the giant birthday

303
00:19:48.839 --> 00:19:52.240
party, but we would go down
to the local ice cream parlor and get

304
00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:59.720
cake and sandwiches and play pinball and
ski ball and win prizes. And we

305
00:19:59.799 --> 00:20:03.119
go to you know, like I
don't know, the local pizza place and

306
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:06.200
yeah, I had birthday parties.
I never had like, you know,

307
00:20:06.319 --> 00:20:10.319
like a huge birthday ranger. Never
had a rager. No, yeah,

308
00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:14.279
my sister had one. It was
a Spice girl's birthday party. Oh cool.

309
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:15.920
I turned eight, So I was
like in that I was invited to

310
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:19.039
that. Well you better have been. Can you imagine stay in your room,

311
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:25.759
Bailey. Let's read this one from
somebody who says they had a quick

312
00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:29.599
story about a party and nobody came
to. I had just transferred to a

313
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:33.079
new college and I'd made fast friends
with a group of around eight or ten

314
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:36.440
other transfer students. The fact that
we all got along so well right off

315
00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:38.160
the bat was kind of crazy.
So I felt really lucky to have so

316
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:41.640
many friends right away. There was
always at least a couple of us hanging

317
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:45.799
out here and there studying, and
I even dated one for a few months.

318
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:51.759
Lol. As the school year crept
into winter and then spring, I

319
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:55.359
noticed I hadn't seen some of them
as much, and I'd gotten and had

320
00:20:55.400 --> 00:20:59.680
not gotten text for Facebook messages as
often. I just assumed that spring term

321
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:02.519
looked different for them, and they
just wanted to figure out, you know,

322
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:04.759
I just wanted to figure out how
to get the gang back together again.

323
00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:08.720
I used to be a huge NASCAR
fan, so I used the first

324
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:12.599
race of the season as an excuse
to throw a party in my dorm apartment.

325
00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:17.359
Kind of lame, but your girl
loves a themed party. I sent

326
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:22.559
out a Facebook invite and a group
text and got busy planning. I had

327
00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:26.160
a huge crocpot full of wings,
tons of chips, pop pizza, and

328
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:27.759
a few other snacks to make sure
I could feed the whole group. I

329
00:21:27.960 --> 00:21:32.200
deep cleaned my apartment and I even
made a couple of my own decorations.

330
00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:36.000
I love a craft every now and
then. I was so excited to see

331
00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:40.960
my friends again, but sadly,
as you already know, nobody came to

332
00:21:41.000 --> 00:21:45.200
the party. Wow. One of
my neighbors and her boyfriend stopped by for

333
00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:47.480
a few minutes to say hi,
but they were on their way to another

334
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:51.519
event. I'm not exactly sure what
happened, but I think I was being

335
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:56.319
phased out of that group, and
nobody ever said anything to me. We

336
00:21:56.440 --> 00:22:00.480
did have one random party that I
was invited to about six months after my

337
00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:02.640
party. I went. I had
a pretty good time, but it was

338
00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:06.079
kind of awkward and obvious. They
didn't want to prioritize hanging out with me

339
00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:10.680
like they had before, to make
the longest story short. Now, See

340
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:15.319
the thing about her email is it's
long, but it's all relevant to the

341
00:22:15.319 --> 00:22:19.559
story, right. I ended up
finding a few different friends and stayed close

342
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:23.039
with them through graduation and beyond,
so there is a happy ending. It

343
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.319
taught me that sometimes you just don't
click with people and that's okay, and

344
00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:30.599
other times you'll only be friends with
people for a little while and that's okay

345
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:33.400
too. Thanks for reading. Love
the show, loved the podcast. I've

346
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:37.920
been a listener for over twenty years
and it's been a constant source of comfort,

347
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:41.839
laughter and joy for me. Thanks
for all you do. If you

348
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:48.480
have any staff writer stickers left,
I would love one, Jenna from Lincoln,

349
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:52.279
Nebraska, and we will send you
one. That's very painful, and

350
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:56.160
you sound like you took it really
well. That nobody nobody showed up.

351
00:22:56.359 --> 00:23:00.599
Yeah, and it's that it was
so themed and like so much work was

352
00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:03.519
put into it. That's a bummer. That's a huge bummer. And what

353
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:07.400
a shitty way for your friends to
signal to you that they're not really interested

354
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:10.599
anymore, which is also so sad. Like you lost a bunch of friends

355
00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:12.039
all at once, like, oh
golly, do you think that there was

356
00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:17.000
anything Jenna where people said, yeah, Jenna is having a party, don't

357
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:21.240
go? Or are you going to
Jenny's Jenna's party? No? Okay,

358
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:25.559
good, I won't either because it
sounds deliberate. Yeah, it sounds like

359
00:23:25.640 --> 00:23:29.880
snaky that they that they did not
want to come. I think it's really

360
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:33.319
shitty. But anyway, ah,
you can come to my birthday party.

361
00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:36.640
And now we're going to have a
birthday party for Bailey if we still are

362
00:23:36.680 --> 00:23:40.960
friends by September, we're gonna have
a big motherfucker of a birthday party.

363
00:23:41.559 --> 00:23:42.119
Where do you want to go?
Where do you want to have it?

364
00:23:42.240 --> 00:23:47.079
And if you say, if you
say like the Renaissance Festival or something nerdy,

365
00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:49.240
well, Renaissance Festival is cool.
It is cool. So but if

366
00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:52.519
you say something like a Dungeons and
Dragons theme party, I don't need a

367
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:56.839
done. I want it to be
like tween tween themed, like you know,

368
00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:02.160
like uh Nickelodeon Disney two thousand and
two, two thousand and three.

369
00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:08.519
I can do Nick Universe, eh. I don't need it to be at

370
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:12.160
like a like a park or anything. It can truly or we could do

371
00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:18.880
like Disney Broadway karaoke and just rent
out a big old room somewhere and do

372
00:24:19.319 --> 00:24:22.599
cool, fun karaoke. But it
has to have a theme. I've had

373
00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:26.359
ideas for themed parties and then just
never show. They never came through.

374
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:29.359
Well, you have a few months
to think about it. So you have

375
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:32.799
like about five months to think about
it. Let's see April, May,

376
00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:37.240
June, July, August, September. Six months to think about it.

377
00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:40.839
And like I said, if you're
still friends with us, Bike, then

378
00:24:41.480 --> 00:24:45.440
we are going to throw you a
motherfucker of a birthday party. You're you're

379
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:48.880
going to get a tattoo that you
don't remember. That sounds great. You're

380
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:52.960
going to be taken to er for
alcohol poisoning, oh god, and you're

381
00:24:53.000 --> 00:25:00.000
going to get pregnant with a guy
from probably Costa Rica. From Costa Rica,

382
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:02.400
Yeah, is he hot? Well
of course, well no, it

383
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:04.599
doesn't matter because you're drunk. Well, but you're willing. I'm willing.

384
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:11.720
Is he hot? And that is
all we've got for the Minnesota goodbye.

385
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:14.640
Thank you. Jenna really appreciate that. That was a really touching, very

386
00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:18.200
sweet email, and I really appreciate
that when our time now is twenty five

387
00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:21.039
minutes. So, how did twenty
five minutes feel for a podcast length?

388
00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:25.599
How long do you want the podcast
to be? If you want them fifteen

389
00:25:25.640 --> 00:25:29.039
minutes, let me know. If
you want it to be longer, let

390
00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:32.319
me know, and we'll see what
we end up with. So and maybe

391
00:25:32.359 --> 00:25:33.680
some will be long and some will
be short, but if you want to

392
00:25:33.720 --> 00:25:36.960
try to make them longer, we
can try that. That's it. Have

393
00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:42.680
a great day. Send your emails
to Ryan Show at KDWB dot com.

394
00:25:44.039 --> 00:25:49.960
I'll sign up by saying dart lick
and right
