On top of my dryer right now at home is an item that Bailey and
I often sing the jingle when it comes on the radio, Swift for power
Mop, Swift for power Mop. And I saw it on top of my
dryer the other day and I'm like, Swift for power Mop, and I
thought of you, Bailey, did you For a second? I thought you
were doing an ad and I wasn't gonna interrupt. This is Minnesota, good
vibe, Minnesota, Goodbye. Swift for power Mop, Swift for power Mob.
And I saw that Susan bought one. Now here's let me ask you
a question, Jenny, because you're a dog person. Love that man.
Josie peas all the time now and it is so frustrating. She's old and
she's losing her marbles, but we still love her. But she will go
outside to pee. She'll come back in immediately, scratch on the other door
to go outside, and we're like, you just came inside, you don't
need to pee, And then she will pee on the floor and it goes
and now she poops on the floor and she really is to the point where
it's like we bought her like disposable diapers and little plastic pants that you would
put on a baby. Yeah, because you put a dog diaper on the
dog, she'll fill it with pea and then walk around and slash it all
over the floor. So dog diapers don't work. But we're gonna we bought
plastic pants. They arrived on the doorstep last night, so it's a disposable
dog diaper. I guess they're all disposable. Yeah, no, no they're
no, they're not. Actually, no, they're not. And then plastic
pants so she doesn't leak all over the place. But let me ask you,
here's the question, Jenny Yep speaking of swiffer power mops. When the
dog pees, Susan will take a swiffer and mop it up, and I
said, no, you're just spreading it around. So I use a towel.
I don't like to use paper towels because I like to keep my you
know, waste to a minimum, So I'll use a towel and wipe it
up. Then I'll use like two paper towels to like you know, wind
decks the pea stink off the floor. Would you agree with Susan just use
a swiffer mop and smear the pee around, which I don't do or would
you do it my way on a hardwood floor. I don't know. I
think I've done both, honestly. Usually we get like a full bucket bucket
and mop and stuff with soap in it, and then we clean the floors
if we have incidents like that in our house. But I usually clean it
up with the papertel verse and then I do something else over it, whether
it's a bucket with a mop or swiffering. Okay, I mean, not
the most fascinating conversation, but if you're a dog owner, this is something
you're gonna run into. How do you clean it up? And Josie,
seriously, I love her so much, she's my girl, but she can't
hear anything anymore. She wondered, if we don't chain her up outside,
we put her on a little lead, and if we don't, she'll wander
off, she'll walk right into the street. And so how old is she?
Fifteen? Holy crap, you got those bonus years going with her.
That's what Andrew always said. Once Mickey hit like ten, it was bonus
years after that. Unfortunately she didn't live too much longer after that. But
yeah, let's get into the Minnesota goodbye. Let's start off with Melissa.
Hello, morning show people. It's your girl, Melissa coming at you with
a conversation starter for the Minnesota goodbye, which she abbreviates MMNGB. I like
that one. What is something about your partner that you accept but would be
an absolute deal breaker if you had to start a new relationship. I'll go
first. My partner is an incredibly picky eater, like meat, rice,
potatoes, no seasoning. I accepted this early on in a relationship, but
in hindsight it should have been a deal breaker. I love to try and
eat at new restaurants. I love to cook. It's impossible for us to
share these experiences together. While I would never leave my partner over this,
if for some reason I had to have a new partner, I would never
put up with this again. How about you? Love you all? Already
rocking my staff rider sticker on my apparently uncool Stanley cup because apparently they are
no longer cool. What is it? Koala o wala YEA Susan has no
hobbies or interests, and this is it? Really is? It is?
It is very It's disappointing because I have so many hobbies and interest and she
doesn't like to do things. And she did crochane for a sh short while.
She's never had a hobby. She took karate for a short while,
but she's never had a hobby or interest. And I will tell you it's
good to be interesting to your partner. And I'm not saying she's boring,
but I wish that she had something like pickleball or you know, karate again
or something. But there's too many times she's content to sit on the couch
and play on her phone. And that to me is not life. That
is a break from life. So but I would never put up with that.
And somebody new, but what can I do now? So does she
used to have hobbies? As never had a hobby in her life. But
you liked her before, but I was young. She used to play piano,
and she plays piano beautifully, and we have a piano. She never
plays it. And I said you should take lessons. She's like, I
don't need lessons, and I'm like, okay, staying out of this one.
Everybody could use a lesson, Jenny, what do you got? I
would say that. Andrew interrupts me a lot in the middle of me telling
a story, and it frustrated the hell out of me when we first started
dating. But now I just realized, like, it's just how his brain
works. He's not trying to be rude. It's just that like he'll forget
what he wants to say if he doesn't like interrupt me in that moment.
And he's gotten so much better because I've taught him. I was like,
Babe, you're interrupting a woman speaking. If you do this in your work
environment, it's going to come off as very disrespectful. And so he's he's
learned a little bit, but he still gets like excited and wants to tell
me. He's like, I'll forget what I want to say otherwise whatever,
And that's the one thing that like frustrates the hell out of me. But
I'll call him on and I'll be like, stop talking, I want to
finish what I was saying first, and he will stop talking and let me
finish. So that's mine, Bailey. What about you and your imaginary boyfriend?
Yeah? What do I hate about my imagining? I mean, I
can list everything I hated about my ex boyfriend, but like I wouldn't stand
for it because I didn't stand for it in the first place, which is
why I don't have anybody. So, uh yeah, I don't I don't
have any Okay, I guess I don't have anyone to guess. That's one
thing that you wouldn't do in an next relationship that came from us. Oh
well, this one, similarly to Susan, is very content. Uh well,
he was very content with sitting around watching TV and playing video games all
day, and he had like a part time job, but that was kind
of it. He just had a part time job because he was like an
artist. So anyway, I don't think I would ever date somebody who didn't
have us like a full time job. It doesn't have to be salaried,
but if you're not working enough to like live, I know, I'm not
here for all that that is. I mean, that is so like step
number one, you know what I mean you would think. I mean,
it's weird when you're in like an art community kind of thing because like you
never know when you're gonna get some kind of like a booked. It's a
gig economy kind of thing, so you never know when you're gonna get booked.
But you should have something to pay to live and not just sit and
watch YouTube all name you even though you are in the artistic community and you
would love to make a living with the chan Hassen Dinner Theater and you would
be loved to be cast in you know whatever. You also worked at the
History Center, Yeah, because you needed a full time job. Yeah.
I got salaried, so like I had a real job, and I had
multiple jobs. Literally, like I've spent my entire twenties working and saving money
and this man did not. It's fine, it's whatever. He's not a
bad person. I just would not stand for that time. I totally get
that. That's a really good question, So thank you for that one.
Next one, Yello Morning Show crew, I have a question about kissing.
Oh, I realize the other day when I was making out with my day
that every man I have made out with prefers my bottom lip to kiss and
suck on. It dawned on me because I tried switching my lips around immediately
went back to my bottom lip. I think back now and all the guys
I day to do this? Is this a guy thing? This is so
random. I want to know your experiences in kissing and maybe a funny story
like one time in high school. I got to kiss my crush finally after
your years of ntiss patient. But he completely engulfed my whole mouth and his
when he kissed me, Like I swear he got some of my nose.
I'm not sure it was a blur of panic for not being able to breathe
and slobber. He wasn't my crash longer after that. Ha ha ha ha
love y'all. Wah from Alison. Okay, I think that the bottom lip
is juicier, it's plumper, it's more accessible because you have to reach out
to get to the top lip. But I guess I can see. But
a good kisser has got to mix it up a little bit. You know,
you don't just do one motion. And I will tell you this.
When melissamer TONI beautiful, beautiful girl in college, everybody wanted to like hook
up with melissamer Tony. And one time we kissed one time and one time
only, she opened her mouth like a bass, like a h and she
engulfed my mouth and just went I don't like like open and closed. I'm
like, how can such a hot woman not know how to kiss? And
I think that some people they just they've never they've never learned how to kiss,
and maybe they don't like it. So I don't know what about the
lip thing, Jenny. I mean, I think it's just different with every
person you might kiss. I don't really think I've ever kissed someone who like
goes aggressively on the bottom lip. I think there's a lot of motion and
like, you know, you're speaking a language with your lips and stuff,
so you just you figure out what language works for the two of you eventually,
and it's good when you speak the same language, right, Like not
too much tongue. Yeah, I remember I was kissing cricket. I was
new at kissing, and she's like, well, you stop sticking your tongue
way down in the back of my throat. And I honestly thought that's what
you were supposed to do. Yeah, And so she taught me. And
then I realized women don't like and I'm gonna guess guys don't either. Don't
like you to try to gag them with your tongue. I think too much
tongue. It's I had to tell people before, like pull it back a
little bit, Okay, I don't need to know what you had for breakfast,
dinner, and lunch. Good God. My first boyfriend I had when
I as a senior in high school. He was the worst kisser ever.
And it would be like kissing your grandma. So it was just like a
peck but then held for longer. Yes, So he would just hold this
like peck kiss for forever. And I literally was like, could you like
put some more umph into this somehow? And so instead he just did this
peck kiss that he held in one place and then just moved his head from
side to side like he was judging it in like you would rub in chapstick.
It was awful. I think that again, some people don't know and
so they're bad at it. It's kind of like if you don't know how
to play tennis, you're going to be bad at it. But if somebody
tells you, like how to hold the racket and maybe like, you know,
put your feet here, yeah, then maybe you'll enjoy it more.
I don't know. Yeah, I'm a really good kisser because I practiced on
my Harry Potter poster growing up. I had plenty of bredas just your pillow.
Oh yeah, And when I was very single in my twenties, i'd
like treat my pillow like it with my lover, but then it gets all
old the engross. Well, I mean I wasn't like deep throat is like
schies here and there I was saying the same thing, Yeah, how are
you gonna get that pillow from being wet? But you say you were not
deep throating your pillow? Good to know. Here comes Cassie. Cassie says
on the Morning Show, I heard Dave praise Billie Eilish because she seems so
down to earth, doesn't care, and how sometimes she looks like she just
got done cleaning out the garage. She doesn't care, et cetera. And
I am cracking the fuck up and I have tears in my eyes l O
l O L because it just came out so casually, and the convo kept
flowing, and wow, where do you come up with this? Holy shit?
I'm gonna use that next time I'm telling my friends I'm looking grubby,
et cetera. Instead of I'm not all done up, I'm not ready and
no makeup, I'm gonna say I look like I just got done cleaning out
the garage. Thanks for the last is always live, laugh, Love your
Morning Show and the Minnesota Goodbye, Thanks so much for all you do.
XO xo Cassie another email. Are you ready yep? Okay, Hello,
my favorite humans. I just wanted to comment on the conversation of proper etiquette
when a guy buys a drink at a bar. The only input I have
is, do not ever accept a drink directly from the person buying it.
Always always, always get it from the bartender. That is, if you're
willing to accept a drink. Just my PSA for the day, Stay safe
out there, Peace and love from Stacy. Yeah. I picked up on
that too, Like you'd never want to, like have a guy come over,
even at like a backyard party if you don't know him, and be
like, hey, got you a drink because you never know, Yeah,
you never know what could be in it. But could you imagine if you
were. I mean, first of all, if you are at a backyard
party and I come over and I buy, like, I've got you a
beer, Well, first of all, why am I getting you a beer
if I don't know you? And if I know you, then you know
me well enough to know that I didn't spike your drink right exactly? Okay,
but at a bar, Yeah, that makes sense. Okay, I
wouldn't take and take something from somebody, uh spitting it too, even if
it's just spit. I don't want to gross. I don't know, Patty
writes in Patty is a regular supporter of The Day Ryan Show, so let's
find out what she says. I was in Cooperstown this weekend for Joe Mauer's
induction to the Baseball Hall of Fame. It was option, it was awesome.
Wow, so many Twins fans were there. Adrian Beltray from the Texas
Rangers. She names a bunch of players that I don't know because I don't
follow baseball. We're also inductive with Joe. Definitely got the loudest cheer from
all the Minnesotans who traveled. There was a parade of legend Saturday afternoon,
so we got to see about forty five additional Hall of Famers. The players
and their families attend a private reception at the Hall of Fame on Saturday,
so they need to get from the VIP hotel across town to the reception.
So rather than just shuttle them there in private limos, they did a parade,
so fans line the streets. We get to see them up close.
I've attached a few pictures from the parade Joe and other former twins Bert Blylevin,
Dave Winfield, Rod Grew, and Tony Oliva. Wow, I made
a sign to hold up at the induction ceremony on Sunday when Joe was introduced,
and I've included a picture of that too. It said, well played,
maur I love, but she spelled it m A y e R maybe
mayor maybe she Maybe it's a bit maybe I don't not sure, which is
an appropriate centiment. But also a great line from a very funny commercial for
the MLB the show video which Joe was in. Google it if you're curious.
Maybe that explains the Joe so an amazing once in a lifetime experience.
I'm a big baseball fan, but even if you aren't, you can appreciate
the history of it all. Here's a question for the Minnesota Goodbye. What
is a once in a lifetime experience that you had? Thanks for all you
do every day, Patty or Patty. And there's a picture of Joe Mauer
and Bert Blylevin and Dave Winfield and Tony Oliva. Oh it's no, she
did spell it right, says well played Maer m a U E R.
I always think he was in like a milk commercial once and his mom said,
nice catch Joe. And she has the biggest Minnesotan accent ever. So
my mom are always like, nice catch Joe. We loved Joe Mauer.
I was really into baseball when I was like fifteen. I met Joe like
at least three or four times. He was always nice. Yes. I
went to a couple of charity events and then you see Joe Mauer and you
can't miss him because he's tall, and he's you know, he's Joe Mauer.
There Joe Mauer, and you don't want to be like, you know,
there's usually not a crowd of people around Joe Mauer and an event like
this because everybody wants to be respectful and not be a groupie and go over
and go and can you call my kid and sing happy birthday? Because there
are claude hoppers that will meet a celebrity and they cannot be graceful enough.
But at a charity event, you know when there's other like celebrities like Chasin
d Russia or I don't know, other celebrities, Jason Russia. Yeah,
the biggest celebrity out there. You you just kind of like you you let
them have their space. But I will go up to Joe Mauer and I've
done that maybe once or twice, and I'm like, hey, I just
want to say hi, you know, big fan. Can I get a
selfie? And he's very like, how are the kids, how is the
family? Whatever? And he's very charming, but a little bit shy,
you know, And I think it comes from you just kind of are on
guard. Yeah, if you can't even stand in the grocery line at cub
without some idiot like me coming up and going, um, you're always on
guard a little bit. But he was very charming and friendly. I will
not say the same for Chris Humphries, who was a little bit stand offish.
Oh yeah, because you met him at that fancy like backyard party that
you went to. Yeah, but again, he didn't owe me anything.
He doesn't Chris Humphries doesn't owe me shit. I just because you know,
I might be a Timberwolves fan or a Chris Humphreys fan, doesn't mean that
he owes me the time of day. He is at a party, he
is not at a charitable function. He is not at a Timberwolves convention.
He's at a friend's wedding party and he doesn't owe me shit, and and
he didn't know you didn't lead with Hi, I'm Dave Ryan. No,
I would never do that. He might know me Ryan in the morning.
That's me, Katie w B. I know you would never do that,
but however, in certain situations, that does give you like a little bit
of an upper hand for people to be more interested in talk. You know.
Yeah, like those sounds conceited, but it is like it's kind of
just reality. Yeah, like, Hi, I have a reason to be
speaking to you right now. Yeah, I think that's kind of true.
But I always hate to use that. I would rather not use it and
be unknown and not welcomed in the conversation than to have anybody think what a
pampas? Did you think she's a big deal because he's on the radio.
So no, I just yeah, I just usually don't tell you a quick
story about the one time I met Joe Mauer. I was probably like fifteen,
and I didn't know what to say to him because I didn't know how
to speak to Joe Mauer. And I said, you look cute and glasses
because he was wearing glasses at the time, and he was signing something and
he said thanks you too, and I internalized that, and I was like,
Joe Mauer is into me, yep, and wants to marry me because
he said I was cute. So did you just like decorate your room with
posters of him? Literally? I still have a poster of Joe Mauer and
Justin Mornau in my childhood betroom at my mom's house. I love that.
But I loved lou Ford lu Ford was my favorite baseball player when I was
fifteen. Lou Ford lou Ford did he play for the Twins? He did?
And this was like two thousand and five. Okay, I know that
name. A life size poster of lou Ford in my room. He like
advertised for milk. I'm surprised, honestly. You don't strike me as like
anything to do with baseball. Oh. I was huge baseball, right,
I'm surprised. I didn't know that about you till right now at fifteen sixteen,
like when they were really they were really good back in that day.
Okay, but I still like baseball. If somebody said you want to go
see a baseball game, I would be like heck, yes, bring me
along. You mentioned your room a minute ago, and I want to bring
up something that happened with me and Carson yesterday and see where you fall on
this spectrum. So Carson needs a flashlight for his work. He's going to
be the tour manager for David kush Kesh Kushner, Good God. And so
you need a flashlight because you're walking around dark spaces backstage, and Carson needs
a flashlight. I said, your grandpa, my dad, gave you a
flashlight for your birthday, a nice one when you were two years old,
which was an impractical gift for a two year old, but a very dad
gift from my dad, because he gave very practical gifts. So he gave
him this flashlight, a little pocket flashlight. And I said, if we
find that flashlight, that will be the perfect thing for you to use because
it's from your grandfather. We tore his room apart and we could not find
it anywhere, and I know it's in there somewhere. We would have never
thrown it away. But this is what I discovered as we're going through Carson's
room. He doesn't know his room, he knows his bed, he knows
his shelf, and he doesn't. He's got a desk full of souvenirs and
pictures and trophies, autograph hockey puck and and like this that I made for
him, and that that I bought for him, and this that he bought,
and all of this shit that he never touches. He never know.
He didn't know what was in his desk drawers. What We found an autographed
Ed Sheeran picture in his desk drawer, and he's like, WHOA, that's
cool. I didn't know I had that. I'm like, don't you know
your own bedroom? Well no, and not really. I opened up his
bottom dress or drawer. There were a couple of souvenir shirts and like concert
shirts that he didn't know that he had. We looked in his closet.
It was full of old things that he didn't remember, old toys, like
a box of kindamas. You know what a kindama is? No? Is
that thing that looks like it's a ball on a string. Oh yeah,
and you throw it in the air and try to catch it ball in a
stick. I don't like that. And he didn't know that he had those.
He didn't know that he had this. He didn't and I'm like,
do you not know your own room? He's like, I guess not.
And I was so intimately familiar with everything in my bedroom. And I think
it's because I spent so much time in my room, and it dawned on
me. He never other than sleeping, he doesn't go in his room.
He doesn't go in there for homework, video games, sure, hanging out
with friends. When he had friends over, it was always downstairs. Yeah,
when he had sleepovers, it was always downstairs, never in his room.
They could probably tell you where everything is downstairs, very likely. Yeah,
So my question is for you and you as you're listening to the podcast,
did you spend a lot of time in your room? I did.
I listened to the radio. I fantasized about being a radio DJ. I
did my homework, I lifted weights, I did everything in my bedroom.
It was my room, it was MySpace. Did you hang out in your
room a lot, Bailey, No, because my room was really small,
so you couldn't. You could really just fit the bed and like a bookshelf,
and that's all so like, if you were going to sit in my
room, you'd have to sit on the bed, and that's like, you
don't sit on the bed to do your homework. I would go into the
kitchen and do my home Okay, So no, I didn't really spend a
lot of time in my bedroom, and like today, I don't really either
unless I'm putting on makeup or sleeping or like scrolling and rotting on my phone.
But yeah, I guess I don't really spend a lot of time in
my bedroom when there's time to be spent in the living room. Okay,
but when you were a kid, that was not your hideout, your hang
out, your you know whatever. No, I mean my sister and I
shared a room for a while, but then she hung out in her room
all the time. She was always in her room. What about you,
Jenny. Yeah, no, for me too, because I shared a room
with my sister un till I was about thirteen. So it was just easier
to go live my life somewhere else than in a bedroom that I shared.
And then when my parents got divorced, we didn't really have bedrooms. My
dad only had one extra bedroom besides his, so we'd kind of like switch
off where we were sleeping at my dad's house. So I was always just
like outside when it was nice weather or doing something. Yeah, it's so
interesting because I don't know, I just thought that was it was. It
made me a little bit sad that here is this bedroom full of all of
his past that he doesn't remember or appreciate. You know, you think that
your childhood bedroom is like one of the most sentimental things that you will ever
have in your entire life, and it's just really not to him. Yeah,
but he spent all this time in the basement with like his friends,
right, true, So all of his sentimental memories are with his friends in
the basement. I think that's more valuable than spending any time like, oh,
here, there are my trophies that I got in eighth grade that are
sitting in my bedroom. Yeah, it's the memories with friends, Dave,
I guess it is. Yeah. Well, that's going to do it for
the Minnesota Goodbye. I send your stories or opinions or thought starters or whatever
you want to send to ryanshow at KDWB dot com and we'll get you on
for the next Minnesota Goodbye. Oh the email address why not Ryan Show at
KDWB dot com.
