WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:04.639
And here we go with a Minnesota
goodbye, and let's see what he is

2
00:00:04.679 --> 00:00:09.839
going on now. I will tell
you that I have not preread these,

3
00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:13.919
so we'll see what we get.
I'm gonna tell you that there's one thing

4
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:18.600
that we don't. If I see
a really, really long email, I'll

5
00:00:18.679 --> 00:00:21.320
skim it really quick, but I'll
be usually be like, this is really

6
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:25.199
way more than we can do on
the show. So shorter ones are sometimes

7
00:00:25.239 --> 00:00:28.600
better, But if it needs to
be long, that's fine too, Dave,

8
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:30.320
as far as you make it up
with your friend. I also have

9
00:00:30.359 --> 00:00:34.719
a friend that I find so exhausting. This is talking about my friend Brentley,

10
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:38.159
and I was thinking about calling him
yesterday because I really do miss him

11
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:39.960
and there are things I want to
talk to him about and see how he

12
00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:43.399
is. But I also don't want
to get the brent lead that I don't

13
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:45.840
like. Yeah, I want to
get the Brentley that's like, hey man,

14
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:48.240
what's going on? You know how
you doing? Not the one like

15
00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:51.840
yeah, what what do you want? Because you never know which kind of

16
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:56.640
Brentley you're going to get. Yep, they I want to say. We

17
00:00:56.679 --> 00:00:59.719
don't talk nearly as much as we
used to. Every time I do,

18
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:03.600
I get a guilt trip from him
about how much we don't hang out and

19
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:06.640
how I like all my other friends
more than him. I told them already.

20
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:08.599
I've got a wife. I don't
need another one. I think if

21
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:12.040
a friend as a chore to have, they're not really a good friend.

22
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:15.599
I'm going to read that again.
If a friend is a chore to have,

23
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.959
then they're not really a good friend. I like that, Todd,

24
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:23.879
Thank you very much for that one. All right, here we go listening

25
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:26.640
to the Minnesota Goodbye episode from May
twenty fourth, talking about college costs.

26
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:32.599
Get this, The state of Illinois
family court systems so different than in Minnesota.

27
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:36.319
If one parent petitions for college costs
to be shared, then the courts

28
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:41.280
are required to order each parent to
pay a portion of their kids college costs.

29
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:45.680
My ax got pissed at me for
filing a petition for his NonStop court

30
00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:52.519
violations, so in retaliation, he
filed a petition for college costs. Basically,

31
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:57.159
it's that's one thing that I've noticed. Two things take away from this

32
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:01.120
without reading the entire thing. Sometimes
people do things just to retaliate. In

33
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:05.120
other words, you do something and
they're like, oh, f that I'm

34
00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:08.000
going to retaliate. And there was
something going on in my family in the

35
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:14.680
last few months where it was like, don't retaliate because they are also going

36
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:21.639
to retaliate, and sometimes it just
sucks to just not do that. Moral

37
00:02:21.759 --> 00:02:23.879
is do not get divorced in Illinois. Yikes. Okay, I love you

38
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:30.120
by I'll keep that in mind.
Yeah, good to know. Listening last

39
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:32.719
week, some of these would be
better on the air, but I'm gonna

40
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:36.240
go ahead and read this anyway.
You weren't here, but we were having

41
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:38.800
a discussion about running in a cemetery, whether it's rude to go for a

42
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.759
run, ride your bike, or
walk in a cemetery. I saw the

43
00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:45.400
video because I saw Jenny thought it
was fine and you thought it was rude.

44
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:50.280
Yeah. I was listening to the
show her the discussion, and I

45
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.280
want to pass this along my wife
and I've been pondering, is everything is

46
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:59.319
being buried in a cemetery selfish?
When you're buried in a cemetery, you

47
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:02.599
are there for eternity, taking up
space that can never be used for anything

48
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:07.080
else ever. Again, I live
pretty close to Lakewood Cemetery, which sits

49
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:13.039
right on lakefront property in the heart
of Minneapolis. That huge plot of land

50
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:15.960
can never be used for anything else
ever again, because you can't dig it

51
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.520
up, dig up the graves,
or put something else like housing, trails,

52
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:22.759
etc. On top of them.
While a recently buried person might have

53
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.199
people that visit their grave for a
few years, let's be real, few

54
00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:30.240
are going to visit after a handful
of years, and nearly no one will

55
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:34.759
visit after that. But that grave
will have to be there for hundreds of

56
00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:38.960
years with populations larger than ever.
Is it selfish to take up a space

57
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:46.360
in a cemetery? Wow, that's
from Henry, He sayss Lakewood Cemetery is

58
00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:51.240
beautiful. They're trying to rethink what
they can They're trying to rethink what they

59
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:55.479
can be to be a place where
people who've lost anyone, whether there or

60
00:03:55.479 --> 00:04:00.080
somewhere else, can come to remember. Maybe we need to all rethink cemetery.

61
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.520
Hey, I agree. I think
about that occasionally too. It's like,

62
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:13.120
Okay, you're buried, You're going
to be there for unless society gets

63
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:17.000
so fucked up at some point where
future generations three hundred years down the road

64
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:24.480
say these people are dead, we
don't care about them. We don't honor

65
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.439
their memory. You know, as
the world changes, there might be people

66
00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:30.360
that come into our country and say, hey, we don't care about the

67
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:35.639
past of America, or maybe just
our generations will evolve where we go.

68
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:40.439
Cemeteries are awful. We need the
land. Yeah, So I guess my

69
00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:43.680
question would be because I absolutely see
your point of view, Henry, and

70
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:47.240
I've thought about that myself as well. I think I know Jake put in

71
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:54.120
his power whatever his will, to
be cremated, and I think I may

72
00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:58.240
be selected the same thing, but
there are My question would be, where

73
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:01.240
do you bury people then that is
against their religious beliefs, because that is

74
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:05.360
very much against certain religious beliefs cremation, I think. So, yeah,

75
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:09.680
you're supposed to, like I think, go to heaven in your with your

76
00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:13.279
body fully intact or whatever it is. I'm getting it wrong, Please forgive

77
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.000
me, you know what I'm saying. So I wonder what would be the

78
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:20.240
option for those people whose religious beliefs
are against it. That's a good question

79
00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:23.800
because I'm sure there are I don't
name know what they are, but there

80
00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:30.480
are definitely some that don't like cremation. I would rather be buried, but

81
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:34.000
I don't have anywhere that I would
want to be buried in by. In

82
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:38.800
other words, I don't have a
family cemetery. Susan's got a family cemetery

83
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:43.279
in somewhere in Ohio where her mom
and dad are buried in their mom and

84
00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:46.720
dad and their mom and dad.
But Susan probably wouldn't be buried there because

85
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:53.399
I would want to be buried there. But I guess I'll be cremated.

86
00:05:53.480 --> 00:05:56.759
My mom and dad are sprinkled on
the hill behind Scattered is a better idea,

87
00:05:56.759 --> 00:05:59.800
I guess scattered on the hill behind
her house in Colorado. And I'll

88
00:05:59.839 --> 00:06:01.680
be honest with you, there's I
don't feel them there. I don't.

89
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:05.839
I don't experience any like connection when
I go there. And I have a

90
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:10.680
friend who lost her sister when her
sister was about nineteen, and she's buried

91
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:13.519
somewhere in Saint Louis Park and she
visits her grave once a year, and

92
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:16.079
she says she's not there. There's
no connection, there's no She misses her

93
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:19.560
sister, she always will, but
she doesn't feel her presence when she goes

94
00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:24.879
there. With cremation. I wouldn't
want my family to feel like they had

95
00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:28.000
to keep my ashes in an urn
forever, you know what I mean?

96
00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:32.879
Like I joke that if I die, Jake has to keep my ashes and

97
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:38.439
a photo of me next to the
bed so he can he can remarry,

98
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:42.040
but that photo and the ashes have
to stay there to make them uncomfortable.

99
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:46.399
Oh god, joke. But I
would not be upset if they, yeah,

100
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:50.600
like sprinkled me as you said somewhere. Yeah, I don't think a

101
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:55.480
lot of people keep the urn anymore. I think obviously some people do,

102
00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:59.759
and I think especially when children die, I think people are more they want

103
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:01.720
to keep the urn. That would
be different, Yeah, totally. But

104
00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:05.959
for example, Chase's mom died.
She wants to be scattered in San Diego

105
00:07:05.959 --> 00:07:10.879
because they love the beach in San
Diego. Guess what it is illegal or

106
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:14.959
not permitted to walk up to the
water and pour ashes in or people would

107
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:18.040
do it all the time. Chase's
plan is to go under the cover of

108
00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:23.480
night, yea and pour her in
the sand that like they do. You

109
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:28.399
think of the scene I do from
White Lotus when Jennifer Coolidge is trying to

110
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.040
drop the ashes, but it's like
Wendy and she can't get a good spot.

111
00:07:31.160 --> 00:07:35.600
I think it is and it's just
like so funny. Yes, anyway,

112
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:39.920
I'm gonna tell you that is a
thing. We've scattered ashes before,

113
00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:44.279
mom and dad and a brother in
law. And be careful when you do

114
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:46.079
it, because you'll be surprised how
the wind will pick it up and you'll

115
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.480
get it on your clothes and now
you will have dead relative dust on your

116
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:53.360
clothes. I am not making that
up. Henry a really good point,

117
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:58.519
that is really thought provoking. And
I you're right, because how long I

118
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.079
mean, as people die, cemeteries
get more and more and more full.

119
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:07.360
What happens in four hundred years when
the country in the world is completely different

120
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.759
and just like you know, listen, when Europeans came here, there were

121
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:16.079
Indian mounds all over. Indians had
different traditions. Natives had I'll call them

122
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:22.600
natives instead of Indians had different traditions. Some natives would put you in a

123
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:26.120
tree or bear you on They would
put like a rack made out of logs

124
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:31.800
and wood and set them body on
fire. But the lot of Indians natives.

125
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:37.360
And there's some down in not Shakopee, Chaska, in the center of

126
00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:41.080
town, there are still Indian mounds, burial mounds and a lot of the

127
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:45.919
time. Back in the thirties,
forties, fifties, Europeans are building roads.

128
00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:48.799
They come across a burial mounds.
They didn't care. They just plowed

129
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.039
right through it because it was just
so disrespectful. So, in other words,

130
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:56.879
what I'm saying is future cultures might
not give a shit yeah about our

131
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:03.480
current cemeteries. Okay, moving on, all right, Okay, that's a

132
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:07.559
little bit long, so I'm gonna
come back to that one, all right,

133
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:11.159
Please don't use my name. I
have a co worker sixty two.

134
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:13.960
He's difficult to say the least.
Oh she is not tech Savvy's an understatement.

135
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:18.480
She doesn't understand Google Docs, Outlook, dropbox, email, trouble shooting,

136
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:20.600
how to scroll on the laptop,
track, padded setter. She's always

137
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:24.080
talking about, oh, I'm not
that tech smart, as if it's cute,

138
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.399
and always asks other co workers for
training on how to do things.

139
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:31.080
It slows down everybody's workflow and meetings
are off installed because of her. For

140
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:33.840
reference, I'm twenty nine. If
I don't know how to do something,

141
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.919
I google it or troubleshooting before talking, taking up somebody else's time and asking

142
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:41.919
questions. My own parents are older
than this co worker, and they do

143
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:43.360
the same as me, so I
know it's not all boomers that do this.

144
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:48.840
It's frustrating because I would have not
have I would not have been hired

145
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:50.120
if I didn't know how to do
these basic things. So how was she?

146
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:54.080
The same co worker also interrupts people, talks over them, and does

147
00:09:54.120 --> 00:10:00.559
that thing where she says what you
just said, but louder, as if

148
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:05.279
to take credit. When she asked
me a stupid question, I find myself

149
00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:09.960
suppressing the urge to say Google is
free. At what point do I approach

150
00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:11.799
leadership with these concerns or do I
suck it up and wait for her to

151
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:16.639
retire. If she's gotten this far
without learning basic tech, who's to say

152
00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:20.039
she will change. Maybe you can
make a PSA for the older generation that

153
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:24.799
your younger co workers are not your
personal IT tutors. Being older, I

154
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:30.759
would say, you're right. It
is not cute for her to say,

155
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:31.799
oh, I'm not tech smart.
I don't know how to do this.

156
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:35.320
I don't know who to do this. But I always ask myself, like

157
00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:39.080
I asked Fallon, how do I
do this on Google? How do I

158
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:43.279
do this on Instagram? And honestly, sometimes Falin knows and sometimes she doesn't,

159
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.480
but a lot of it I learned
myself, Like there's an app that

160
00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:50.960
I use to make videos for the
show called Vixer, and I learn how

161
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:54.120
to do it, and I'm really
it's so she can learn these things,

162
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:58.039
but it's not up to you to
say you need to learn it. I

163
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:01.240
think maybe a talk to your boss, talk to your manager and say,

164
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:07.200
Marjine has to stop asking me how
to use dropbox. We had a really

165
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:11.879
similar email to this, I want
to say it six months ago, and

166
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:16.679
it was so similar, and a
lot of people were more on the Margie

167
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:22.600
side of it, and what they
said was they the older generation spent years

168
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:30.759
teaching your generation how to do things, so guess what, now it's your

169
00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:33.360
turn to help teach them a little
bit. It's a good point, and

170
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:37.320
it was a good point, but
I also would absolutely feel your frustration.

171
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:39.200
So I can sit here and be
like, no, no, it's your

172
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:43.320
turn to teach. But that doesn't
mean my mom. It's funny, I'll

173
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:48.000
get frustrated with my mom trying to
show her something. She gets so frustrated

174
00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:54.080
with her mom, And Jake gets
honestly annoyed watching how frustrated. My mom

175
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:58.080
gets with her mom. Jake's like, why is she so like short tempered

176
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:01.799
with her mother? She's eighty something
years old. Of course she doesn't know

177
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:05.600
how an iPhone works, like think
of all the things she's seen in her

178
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.960
generation. But I do agree that, like, if you're going to continue

179
00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:15.240
working in a atmosphere where things are
going to continue to progress and most are,

180
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.799
you have to like do the things
you need to do to learn.

181
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:22.360
And so I think Dave's right.
Maybe it's just like a quick chat with

182
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:26.639
your boss of like, this is
slowing down my production and that's not fair

183
00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:30.480
to you and old people. It's
a cliche, but it's true. They

184
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:33.759
don't like technology, and I think
the reason is they've seen it change so

185
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:37.559
much that they're not aware there's a
new fucking way to do it. Are

186
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:43.759
you kidding me? My father in
law had a VCR and he recorded his

187
00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:48.039
Prices right and Wheel of Fortune and
Jeopardy every day. And we got him

188
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:50.639
a TiVo back when it was called
a TiVo, and we got it for

189
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:52.960
him and I showed him how much
easier it was, and he did not

190
00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:56.600
want to understand it, even though
it was so easy and I kind of

191
00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:01.000
forgive him a little bit because in
his life he's seen the advent of television,

192
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:05.720
he'd seen the rise of radio,
the cassette tape, the compact disc,

193
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:09.759
Beta Max cable, and it was
like, fuck, I'm tired of

194
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:13.679
changing technology. And I think that
made part of it. But it's a

195
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:16.919
very good point, all right.
Next one, Dave, It's true what

196
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:22.279
you said about it will only get
better from here. As my past life

197
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:26.120
experiences, I know that to be
true. Also last week my car broke

198
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:30.279
down and my wife's car broke down, but I kept listening to what you

199
00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:33.320
said because I know it will get
better. Thanks for reminding me that.

200
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:37.679
From Chow Chow, I will tell
you I'm glad you got it. Something

201
00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:39.639
out of that that wasn't mine.
That was somebody who wrote in and they

202
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:43.480
said they've used that all their life
or in a recent anyway, that things

203
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.120
will get better. The word this
is the worst it will be was the

204
00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:50.679
phrase they use. This is the
worst it will be, And sometimes that's

205
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:54.840
not true. But sometimes if you
tell yourself that, and it went back

206
00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:58.399
to my phrase, no hill goes
up forever. But Chow, I'm glad

207
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:03.799
you got something that. Thank you
for writing. I think one of the

208
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:07.679
new scams is people asking for your
email address because they say they have a

209
00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:11.919
Venmo business account instead of a regular
Venmo account. Not sure, but I

210
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:16.000
have two people asking for my email
so they can venmo me to place my

211
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.159
marketplace items on hold. I don't
give them my email address. That is

212
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:24.799
a random fucking email. But I
agree with what you're saying. There's so

213
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:28.279
many scammers out there. Don't even
heard of that one. But you do

214
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:31.960
not need someone's email address for Venmo. So no, you don't write,

215
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:37.600
you just need code. Thanks for
the heads up on that one. Okay,

216
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:41.279
let's go to this. One says
howdy this morning, six seven you're

217
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:46.559
playing games, which included oh this
is from this morning, which included password

218
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:48.039
Alexa. And it made me think
of a possible idea. Is Dave smarter

219
00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:52.679
than Alexa? You can ask David
a question like why do radio shows promote

220
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:56.080
giveaways at seven am? Then ask
Alexa to see how close Dave was to

221
00:14:56.120 --> 00:15:01.519
the right answer. That's kind of
funny. Maybe have to pre check the

222
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:03.279
questions asked to ensure you get an
answer from Alexa. Do you want to

223
00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:07.440
try a round of it right now? Sure okay had her Okay, okay,

224
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:11.000
go ahead and pull a microphone over
there by, Alexa, and then

225
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:13.720
I know it's kind off the top
of your head, but plugged in.

226
00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:18.840
She's Alexa. Good morning, Oh
don't good morning? Here we go.

227
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:22.200
Birthday to actor Liam Neeson, born
on this day in nineteenth. Every time

228
00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:26.639
the star of the take In film
series has a very particular set of skills.

229
00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:33.279
Stop Alexa, stop God okay,
question morning, Happy birthday to Alexa.

230
00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:37.440
Stop okay? So what questions should
have happen? I mean anything,

231
00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:43.360
just the general knowledge question that's not
a yes or no. Okay, Alexa,

232
00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:48.840
when did you ask me first?
Okay, David, you'd act like

233
00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:54.639
her. It is a masterpiece of
Renaissance sculpture. Cree Alexa. Stop one

234
00:15:54.720 --> 00:16:02.759
in fifteen oh four? Alexa stop
so far good David. What was the

235
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:11.480
last port the Titanic sailed out of? What city? Uh? Morning before?

236
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:18.720
It was somewhere in Ireland? I
don't exactly know, but she'll know

237
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:22.440
that one. So I think it's
got to be more of a description,

238
00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:27.960
like what caused the Civil War?
Or um, I don't know, how

239
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:33.120
does a rocket work? Or something
like that. I don't know, though,

240
00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:37.600
right, Yeah, example, let's
try the radio one. So that's

241
00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:41.960
let me let me try this one. Um So, how does a rocket

242
00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:45.519
work? Well, a rocket works
by burning liquid or solid fuel h and

243
00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:52.080
it will then propel the rocket into
space after the fuel is ignited and it

244
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:56.639
burns off to propel the It's kind
of like am I close? Isn't it?

245
00:16:56.879 --> 00:17:02.120
Alexa? How does a rocket work? According to NASA, rocket engines

246
00:17:02.120 --> 00:17:06.720
are propelled forward by their exhaust as
they burn fuel into hot gas. Rockets

247
00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:10.400
can fly into space because they don't
need air to operate like other engines.

248
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:15.200
Yeah, okay, good, you
know what, we'll try it out.

249
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:17.920
That's not a bad idea, but
it's a little bit like am I close?

250
00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:19.839
And I don't want to be shown
up by Alexa every time? But

251
00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:25.920
I do like that, Thank you, Sidney. See if there's another one

252
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:29.960
that is a shout out? Let
me scroll down a little bit because here

253
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:33.359
is an interesting one. Dave,
how did you come up with your stage

254
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:40.119
name? This is from Christy Owen's
real tur so Christy, I would say,

255
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:42.519
when I was seventeen years old,
they got a radio job at a

256
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:48.119
top forty radio station in my hometown
of Colorado. Springs, and they didn't

257
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.039
ask me if I wanted to come
up with a fake name, but I

258
00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:53.880
thought, oh, well, so
many people on the radio, especially back

259
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:59.559
then, had a fake name.
And so I sat there and I thought,

260
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:06.480
what, I don't want to be
Dave Kibbler that's my real name because

261
00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:08.519
it's kind of a funny name.
People spell it wrong and it sounds it's

262
00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:11.960
just not a like a graceful,
cool name. So there was a DJ

263
00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:15.119
named Dan Ryan that worked at a
radio station in Denver that I used to

264
00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:18.279
listen to. So I thought Dan
Ryan Dave Ryan. So that's where I

265
00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:22.119
stole it from. And I used
it for a few years. And then

266
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:26.200
I think I've told you the story
that when I got my job doing mornings

267
00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:30.279
in Las Vegas, I almost changed
it to Dave Saint Germain, which I

268
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:33.359
think would have been a badass,
motherfucking name, because it's just it's got

269
00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:37.960
more pizzas to a Dave Saint Germain, you know, look like Elvis Duran

270
00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:42.440
or Bobby Bones or Howard Stern.
They have a unique name. Dave Ryan

271
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:47.079
is so vanilla. That's all those
names you just gave are very simple though,

272
00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:51.079
and Saint Germaine's too much, but
it's stuff that AAA sound to it.

273
00:18:51.319 --> 00:18:56.079
Dave Saint Germaine, more long lines
of Bobby Bones like Howard Stern's simple

274
00:18:56.440 --> 00:19:02.920
kind. I guess you know Billie
Island. No, that's another cool unique

275
00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:06.079
name. That's a that's a cool
unique name, and that is going to

276
00:19:06.119 --> 00:19:08.000
do it for the Minnesota Goodbye.
Thank you very much for sending your emails.
