00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.200
Bailey got her first letter versus snail
mail letter. Do you want to open

2
00:00:03.240 --> 00:00:05.160
it up? But we're not on
the air, we're doing the Minnesota Goodbye.

3
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:09.279
Oh okay, yeah, I'm sorry
it's confuse, So yeah, do

4
00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:11.160
you want to open it? And
see? This is a big deal because

5
00:00:11.160 --> 00:00:14.960
it's not anthrax, and a lot
of people it's not anthrax. A lot

6
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:19.079
of people they don't let it.
They don't write letters anymore. But Bailey

7
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:25.320
got a letter and it looks colorful. Oh that's funny. It is,

8
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:30.760
oh cool. It's for car wash
honestly, but like it's because they were

9
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:36.439
listening and I during Vont doing his
slow jam about washing a car, I

10
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:38.679
said that I didn't want to waste
my money on washing my car, so

11
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:42.520
she sent me some coupons. So
are you serious? Yeah? And oh

12
00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:47.200
it's uh it's in Arden Hills because
she said she heard I worked at Mountaine

13
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:51.960
High School. Go mustangs. Yay, that's dope. Cool, Okay,

14
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:55.520
that's cool. It would be as
sexy or exciting as Von's rendition of how

15
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:59.640
to get a car clean. But
there's laser lights and rainbow colored soap and

16
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:03.560
it will offer really get the job
done. Cool. I love it.

17
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:07.359
Okay, good, Well we didn't
get anything. Did you get anything?

18
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.400
I dope that I did not,
But that's okay, because you know what,

19
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:17.840
I don't need anything. I just
need your love. Got this?

20
00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:25.959
Why you cry? It's uh,
it's fun to get snail mail, So

21
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:30.159
okay, cool. I'm looking for
something and I can't find it right now.

22
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.040
But I found this online yesterday and
it was really interesting. And I

23
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:36.560
don't want to talk about this on
the radio. So this is something because

24
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:40.680
I don't I don't want to come
across as weird and this definitely makes me

25
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:44.239
feel weird, and it worries me
that if people meet me, they will

26
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:49.439
think that I am weird and they
won't appreciate my joy in meeting people.

27
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:52.560
What do I mean by that?
So we've talked about this before, but

28
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:55.239
I don't want to talk about in
the air. I found an article yesterday

29
00:01:55.280 --> 00:02:02.560
in National Geographic online about propygnosia,
which which is facial blindness, and I'd

30
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:07.120
never read an article about it.
But that is something that I have had

31
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:13.759
a problem with over the last ten
or fifteen years, where if you have

32
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:20.919
trouble recognizing the difference between faces,
and they say it is a neurological thing

33
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:27.960
where your part of your brain doesn't
recognize faces the way other people do.

34
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:30.879
Now, of course I recognize Bailey
because I come in every morning and I

35
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:37.240
expect to see you. In context, I recognize every face. But my

36
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:39.360
biggest story when I realized there was
a problem was years ago, and I've

37
00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:43.719
told this story before. Carson was
about ten years old and we were doing

38
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:46.919
a broadcast from Caribouo Coffee and Chan
Hassen and so I'm sitting there at the

39
00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:50.840
table talking on the microphone on the
radio and a little boy comes up to

40
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:53.879
the table and he's probably about six
or eight feet away, and he's like

41
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:55.400
really cute. And I'm like,
oh, this little boy came by and

42
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:00.680
his mom brought him by. Oh
fuck, that's Carson. And I recognize

43
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:05.120
my own son because out of context, I wasn't expecting him. So I

44
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:09.360
read this article and that is exactly
how they describe it. They say,

45
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:13.639
in context, if you walk into
your home and you see your wife,

46
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:17.879
well it's in context if you are
at the State Fair and you don't expect

47
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:20.919
to see your wife there. I
don't know why you wouldn't, but let's

48
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:25.080
say you see her there out of
context. I might not recognize my own

49
00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:29.560
wife's face. Now that's a bad
example, because I've seen her face so

50
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:31.520
many times. I would a lot
of times too, so I know.

51
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:40.000
And they say that people will find
coping tricks. If you are talking to

52
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:46.080
somebody that you don't recognize and you
know that you should recognize them, you

53
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:47.439
can say things like, oh,
well, hey, what have you been

54
00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:52.479
up to lately, hoping they'll give
you a clue about who they are.

55
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:55.080
This happened at Allison's grad party.
There was a woman that lives down the

56
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:59.520
street and she's in my kitchen and
I'm standing next to her. I'd met

57
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.000
her a dozen times and I'm talking
to her and I had no idea who

58
00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:06.439
she was, no idea, And
later I found out that it was a

59
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:11.360
woman that lives about four houses away, but I couldn't place it. Angie

60
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:15.319
Taylor worked with my show for years. I saw her at a morning show

61
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:19.120
convention. She comes up behind me, she grabs my ass because that's Angie

62
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:24.199
Taylor's style. She's funny, you're
using context clothes based down right. I

63
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:27.279
turn around and I'm like, hey, hey, what's going on? And

64
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:32.079
she's like, Dave it's Angie.
I did not, out of context,

65
00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:38.480
recognize Angie's face. So they say
a lot of the time, we feel

66
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:44.800
like we're am I to aloof Am
I too selfish? Do I feel like

67
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:47.519
I don't care about people? And
it's like no, no, and no.

68
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:53.800
It's more like I just don't recognize. And there's different degrees kind of

69
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:58.000
like autism. Yeah, there's a
spectrum where it's really bad or it's just

70
00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.319
kind of a slight nuisance. Mine
is like a slight nuisance. Yeah.

71
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:02.959
I have a friend who also has
face. Do you really Yeah? Yeah.

72
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.680
And they're always on about like if
we're in a public place together,

73
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:11.920
I will just consciously like go out
of my way to explain who people are

74
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:14.480
as they walk up. Yes,
And I do that with Susan. Two.

75
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:15.879
If we go to like a neighborhood
party, I'm like, I'm going

76
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:18.800
to meet somebody that I've met a
dozen times. You're going to need to

77
00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:25.519
help me because there's nothing more.
It's fucking embarrassing. And Jenny and Steve

78
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:28.480
and Fallon used to give me a
hard time. They're like, don't introduce

79
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:33.199
yourself to anybody in the hallway because
you've met them before. You just did

80
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:38.040
something the other day actually at an
event that we had, and you introduce

81
00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:41.160
yourself to someone. But to be
fair, I don't want to like call

82
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:44.720
it specifically what it was, but
you introduce yourself to someone. And I

83
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:47.120
saw that person be like, yeah, I've been working here for two years.

84
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:50.120
And I was like, oh,
Dave, no, Lie, is

85
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:55.480
that Tessa? No, her name
is Ellie. Oh, and she was

86
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:57.800
a little bit hurt. Yeah,
she was yeah, And I was like,

87
00:05:57.920 --> 00:06:00.480
oh, like I just I felt
I feel bad because, to be

88
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.639
fair, we rare like we have
so many Street Team members and we don't

89
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:08.079
work like it's not like if we
work an event, we work with the

90
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:11.399
same ones. It's always like randomly
that we see them around. Yeah.

91
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:14.079
So I saw that happen and I
was like, oh, Dave, you

92
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:16.199
know better than to be like,
it's nice to meet you. Oh.

93
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:17.879
I said, well, hi,
who are you? And she's like it's

94
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:21.680
Ellie and I'm like and then she
she didn't give me the stink eye,

95
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:25.439
but I could tell that it doesn't
make people feel good, and that's one

96
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:29.399
of the really shitty things about it
is it makes people feel like they were

97
00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:31.879
never important enough for you to remember
and it's like, oh, Dave,

98
00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:34.800
Ryan must think he's like, you
know, the big shot or whatever because

99
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:40.199
he doesn't remember me. There's this
lovely couple that comes to my Rogers rescue

100
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:45.240
ride every year. They're lovely,
they're so sweet, and I never remember

101
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:48.199
their faces. But I think she
knows that I have trouble with that,

102
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:53.399
so she introduces herself and her husband
every time. I just introduced myself to

103
00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:56.639
people constantly, even if I know
they've met me before, because they're going

104
00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:00.519
to forget me anyway. You're a
pretty memorable person, really, No.

105
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:03.040
I've a lot of people I've met
millions of times and they're like, hey,

106
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:05.279
have we met I'm like, yeah, like four times, let's see.

107
00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:08.680
I totally disagree with that. I
don't think you give yourself enough credit,

108
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.399
Bailey. No, I'm telling you
real things that have happened in my

109
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.000
life to try and relate to your
conversations. Dinged, Okay, sorry,

110
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:19.759
And it does. It kind of
makes you feel like it's embarrassing. Sure,

111
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:23.480
and you don't like to make other
people feel like And we meet a

112
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:27.240
lot of people. That's part of
our job. So I did I do?

113
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:30.319
I just try to avoid Oh,
here's a trick that I've learned.

114
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:34.279
Yes, so, uh, there
is somebody who works here that and I

115
00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:36.399
want to give too much because I
don't know who listens. I don't want

116
00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:41.759
to embarrass anybody. But they worked
here in the past and now they work

117
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.399
here again, and I did not
remember their face. And I said,

118
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:49.519
hey, but I recognize their face
from a poster, like the TV monitor

119
00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:54.160
in the lobby says welcome, so
and so. So I recognized the face

120
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:56.720
from the TV monitor. I saw
him in the hallway, but I did

121
00:07:56.879 --> 00:08:01.120
not recognize his face from years ago. He's like, hey, good to

122
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:03.600
see you again. I'm like,
yeah, it's been a while. He

123
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:07.439
says, yeah, I used to
work here back in two thousand and four.

124
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:09.639
I'm like, yeah, I was
going to say it was about twenty

125
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:13.040
years ago. All of this has
made up, sure, but it got

126
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:20.199
me out of something embarrassing where I
literally didn't remember the face last comment.

127
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:24.319
I'll watch TV shows and I won't
I'll get the characters mixed up. It's

128
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:26.879
like, who's that again, and
Susan will have to say, well,

129
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:30.920
that's the sister of the main character. Oh well, they all look the

130
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:35.600
same anyway, they all got long
blonde, curly hair, a lot of

131
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.200
work done on their face. OK. Yeah, So anyway, if I

132
00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:43.159
ever meet you and I introduced myself
to you, please don't be offended.

133
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:45.320
But that's one of the things that
I didn't want to talk about on the

134
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.360
radio because I don't want to seem
weird and I don't want to seem like

135
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.320
I don't care, because I do
care deeply for people who listen to the

136
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:56.159
show. I appreciate you more than
you'll ever know that you're here. But

137
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:58.240
if you meet me and I say
HI, good to meet you, just

138
00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:03.200
say you dumb motherfucker something like that
we've met before, and then you're gonna

139
00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:07.000
forget that you told people to say
that, and then you're like, wow,

140
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:11.399
that person question me. Jenny knows
me too. Meat. All right,

141
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:15.039
let's get into our Minnesota goodbyees.
We're gonna start off with one that

142
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:18.320
says, don't same a name.
The more I listen to the Minnesota Goodbye,

143
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:22.039
the more I understand how non traditional
your work schedules are. Of course,

144
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:24.679
I understood that you're waking up and
starting work very early, but I

145
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:28.759
didn't realize how many additional things you
do all day long. Now I wonder

146
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:31.279
with such a non traditional work schedule, how do you schedule the rest of

147
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.519
your life without going crazy or is
it disrupting your personal relationships too much?

148
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.799
For example, if you're during the
morning show, then stay at the office

149
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:41.799
for several hours of meetings, then
you have to go to a do scheduled

150
00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:46.559
postings on your social media channels that
evening, plus occasional events you have to

151
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:48.799
attend, et cetera. Do you
try to protect certain hours of the day

152
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:52.879
for personal things like every day we're
always going to spend certain hours with our

153
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:58.360
partner or exercising, or are you
required to be constantly flexible and moving your

154
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:03.120
schedule around on a daily basis?
How does that impact your ability to keep

155
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.080
up with self care routines with your
partner and friends. Jenny, I'll let

156
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.559
you start. I don't think it's
as difficult as you think it might be.

157
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:11.960
I think we're like pretty set of
being here during a certain amount of

158
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:16.039
time, usually like noon, we
can bank on being here till like eleven

159
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:18.559
thirty noon, and that's like for
sure. Throughout the day. There might

160
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.759
be random things that happen, but
we know about events well in advance,

161
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:26.159
so that's not like that hard to
plan around. I think it's just that,

162
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:28.879
like certain things happen in the world
and we have to like be on

163
00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:31.559
top of it as a morning show. So like when something big happens,

164
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:37.080
like the damn in Mankato, it's
like, Okay, I like might go

165
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:41.360
out of my way at three pm
in the afternoon to DM someone and try

166
00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:43.960
to get someone on the show.
Right. So it really I don't think

167
00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:48.320
it's as difficult as you might think. I don't know, but I also

168
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:50.879
live with a real estate agent,
so like he's on call at all times,

169
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:54.600
so I feel like we're able to
balance each other's schedules because I mean

170
00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.320
we don't have weekends together like we
like I have weekends, he's out,

171
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:03.480
yeah, so we're just constantly kind
of having to work around random schedules.

172
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:07.600
I try to be respectful of people's
weekends. I don't bother people on the

173
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:13.240
show on Saturday or Friday afternoons.
We work together on Sunday, but I

174
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:18.919
don't expect everybody to like be right
there answering text messages on Sunday afternoons from

175
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:22.519
like the time we get out of
the building until in the evening. I

176
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:26.360
don't really bother people on the show. If I'm like, oh, Jenny,

177
00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:28.480
I need you to do this,
I'll send her an email rather than

178
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:31.960
a text message, because it's like, you know what, you get a

179
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:35.720
few hours off every day, and
Saturday is a our really only true day

180
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:39.519
off every week except for in the
summer. Basically, we've got events a

181
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:43.600
lot of times. Yeah, lake
patrol or whatever it might be. But

182
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.519
it's not bad, and honestly,
most of it is kind of fun,

183
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:50.559
Like going to the Pride five K
is kind of fun. Have you noticed

184
00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:54.799
anything like dealing with like personal time, Bailey, No, Honestly, like

185
00:11:54.960 --> 00:12:00.320
I'm just going off of what my
job was before this, and I work

186
00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:05.240
less now than I did before.
In our busy seasons, I work like

187
00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:07.639
fifty to sixty hours a week.
So like being able to walk out here

188
00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:13.080
by noon and then like go on
a walk and enjoy beautiful weather and not

189
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.840
have to think about work is lovely. And also like some of the stuff

190
00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:20.919
that I just do in my pastime
is work now, So like scrolling on

191
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:26.000
TikTok counts as work, especially if
I'm like saving ideas, Yes, it's

192
00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:28.200
actually kind of true, and that
what I would have been doing anyway,

193
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:31.919
so might as well just to capitalize
on that. Next one is from a

194
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:35.080
regular staff writer that says, please
don't say my name. The other day,

195
00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:37.679
I heard you guys talking about a
lady with a neighbor being loud.

196
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:41.600
I've got a different issue. I
live in a smoke free building and I

197
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:45.919
have neighbors who smokes pot. We
can smell it through the event. I

198
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:48.679
already let the office know about it. We can smell it every now and

199
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:54.240
then. Still the neighbor has their
bathroom fan on all day and all night.

200
00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:56.799
That'd be annoying. I think one
of the things about living in an

201
00:12:56.840 --> 00:13:01.759
apartment is like neighbors and I don't
like to smell a pot. I don't

202
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:03.879
smoke pot. I don't like it. You know, I wish I did

203
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.600
like it. I wish it did
relax me. It makes me anxious.

204
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:13.080
But I don't know what to tell
you, but that sucks. You know,

205
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:15.320
people do love their weed, and
you're supposed to be able to,

206
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.320
like what, legally smoke it in
your house or no. I think you

207
00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:22.039
are. But if I mean,
if you're in a smoke free apartment,

208
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:24.279
then that's like a whole different story. So I guess I don't know where

209
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.679
you legally can. I mean,
I was just at a kick Paul Field

210
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:31.039
last night and there was a good
portion of people smoking weed there. That's

211
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:35.000
heard. Yeah, But I don't
know if that's legal or not to do

212
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.039
out in public. I don't think
it is, definitely. I think even

213
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:43.840
in Colorado, it's absolutely permissible in
a private residence or building, but not

214
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:46.559
out in public. Even in Colorado. I go to Colorado, I smell

215
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:50.000
it all the time. You walk
downtown, you smell weed all the time,

216
00:13:50.039 --> 00:13:52.440
and it's like, really, there, could you the invented weed?

217
00:13:52.480 --> 00:13:58.120
There is like can you really not
go without weed long enough that you have

218
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:03.039
to smoke it on the streets in
Colorado Springs? Yeah? I mean yeah,

219
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:05.720
I don't know. Some people can't. I guess. Sesna, a

220
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:09.080
regular staff writer, writes in Good
Morning, wanted chime in about the hiker

221
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:13.200
that went missing and how Jenny isn't
sure she believes it. Tell us the

222
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:16.559
story. My gu went missing,
and I think the Santa Cruz Mountains in

223
00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:20.480
California for ten days, and then
when they found him. I just thought

224
00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:24.600
his statements were a little bit weird, like he was able to find water

225
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.240
and drink water, but like usually
water can help you bring you back to

226
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.840
civilization, so you should follow the
water to civilization. And he also said

227
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:37.279
something about like it was a really
cool experience or something. I don't know.

228
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.879
So it just was like kind of
strange. It was a little bit

229
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:45.679
saying so, Sesna writes in and
she says, last year, there was

230
00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:48.440
a story of this girl in Alabama, and you might remember this, when

231
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:50.679
she saw toddler on the side of
the road late at night and she called

232
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:54.919
the cops. While on the phone
with the cops, she pulled over,

233
00:14:54.440 --> 00:15:00.679
got out and went missing. There
were some weird things about how she went

234
00:15:00.799 --> 00:15:05.120
missing, like she bought snacks and
a robe, and those items weren't in

235
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.240
her car anymore. After like forty
eight hours or so, she was quote

236
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.679
found unquote running down the street to
her home. The whole thing was made

237
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:18.240
up. She was just trying to
scare her on again, off again boyfriend

238
00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:20.320
or something crazy. She had somebody
pick her up on the other side of

239
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:24.840
the trees, on the side of
the interstate. You were family, knew

240
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:30.799
and faked not knowing. It was
a crazy story. Anyway, I'll link

241
00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:33.360
it if you want to know more. I don't have the woman's name,

242
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:37.679
but if you want to google,
the story is like missing Alabama woman fake

243
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:43.480
just google that. Yeah, I'm
gonna go ahead and tell you it's spoiler

244
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:48.399
alert the Sherry Panini story. Yeah, because we talked about it on the

245
00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:50.759
radio. But I don't want to
spoiler it on the radio, So I'll

246
00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:52.159
tell you on this and if you
don't want to hear it, then fast

247
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:56.320
forward, fast forward, fast forward, or skip. But it's a great

248
00:15:56.440 --> 00:16:00.600
show on Hulu and it's fairly new, it's trending, and it's the perfect

249
00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:06.279
wife the kidnapping or whatever of Sherry
Panini. Sherry Panini was probably about thirty

250
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:10.799
five is years old, and she
was beautiful, but one of those faces

251
00:16:10.840 --> 00:16:12.519
where you look at him and you
go, something's amiss. Got a crazy

252
00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:18.879
way, yes, and she was
beautiful, but something was a miss and

253
00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:22.399
it turned out okay. So she
went missing. They found her cell phone

254
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:25.679
at the end of the driveway and
she was missing for twenty two days,

255
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:30.320
and they did the searches and the
posters and the TV appeals and and it

256
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:32.360
was, you know, interesting.
It was kind of the missing white woman

257
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:34.200
syndrome, which you've heard of,
right, Yes, of course, Yeah.

258
00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:37.279
Is it like gone girl kind of
thing. No, it's go ahead.

259
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:41.159
Well, what they mean by missing
white girl syndrome is like when a

260
00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:44.720
white woman, especially if she's attractive, it goes missing. It's all over

261
00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:47.480
the news. Yeah, it's all
over NU see nightly news, it's all

262
00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:51.559
over CNN. But if it's a
woman of color and maybe she's not as

263
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:55.399
attractive, then it's like, oh
well, it doesn't get the attention.

264
00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:59.840
So missing. So because it was
a beautiful, youngish white woman, the

265
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:03.960
world went crazy. I mean every
news outlet in the world was wondering where

266
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:07.319
this woman is for twenty two days. So twenty two is late. Days

267
00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:11.799
later, she shows up running down
the road, partially chained up, covered

268
00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:18.119
with bruises, covered with burns.
They branded the word exodus into her back,

269
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:23.160
and she is like, oh my
god, I was kidnapped by two

270
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:27.200
Mexican women. I don't know why
she chose Mexican women. One was young,

271
00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:30.559
one was old, one was cruel, one was nice. After twenty

272
00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:37.240
two days of mistreatment, malnutrition,
beatings, burnings, the younger one drove

273
00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:41.079
her out and let her go.
So she comes home. She's found by

274
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:45.960
the side of the road crying screaming, and she says she really can't remember

275
00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:49.519
anything, and they absolutely believe her
story at first. Now I'm getting into

276
00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:55.200
the spoiler part. She made the
whole thing up. Wow. She was

277
00:17:55.279 --> 00:18:00.920
picked up by her ex boyfriend,
taken to his house not hour drive away,

278
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:07.759
where she basically watched news stories about
her being missing, and she would

279
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:11.640
have him beat her, like she
ran across the floor. And he was

280
00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:15.640
a hockey player, like a former
hockey player, and so we would hold

281
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:18.920
up a hockey stick. She'd run
across the floor, break her nose by

282
00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:22.160
because he wouldn't actively beat her,
he wouldn't do it, Yeah, but

283
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.119
she would beat herself up. She
ran nose first into the hockey stick,

284
00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:32.160
broke her nose. She said,
shoot hockey pucks at me. So she

285
00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:34.640
was covered with bruises. She had
a burn on her arm from cleaning with

286
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:41.319
some sort of bleach that burned her
arm. And then he actually was asked

287
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:45.519
by her to go to the Ace
hardware store to buy a wood burning kit

288
00:18:45.640 --> 00:18:52.079
to burn the words exodus into her
back. Wow. Crazy Yeah, And

289
00:18:52.279 --> 00:19:00.519
little by little this story broke down
and her poor husband didn't know whether to

290
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:03.440
support her or not. She's like
you've got to believe me. You're the

291
00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:07.839
only person left in the world who
I can trust. So he didn't.

292
00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:12.319
And then finally the cops found out
without a doubt that she made the whole

293
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:17.400
thing up. And the whole question
is why. Yeah, that's what I

294
00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:18.839
was gonna say. Did you find
that out? And know that? It's

295
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:22.759
like she was having marital troubles,
so she ran off to this old boyfriend,

296
00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:26.920
but they never had sex, and
the boyfriend was so enamored of her
