All right, let's get started on the Minnesota goodbye and see what we have
in the email. I did preread them because we have a new policy of
prereading all of the emails so I won't be surprised by something. This one
says hello from Kaylee. On Friday, you were talking about cat calling and
creepy men. This came up because there was an article that I found,
I think on BuzzFeed where guys realized that they were being creepy and then they
decided not to be creepy anymore. And my favorite example was a guy who
worked at an amusement park and there was a new girl. He was like
sixteen or eighteen whatever, new girl first day, and he purposely flirted with
her and would get in her way while she tried to walk around him and
like block her way, and because he thought she was cute and he was
being flirty, and she didn't show up for work the next day, and
at sixteen or eighteen years old, learned a valuable lesson that she was so
upset by him what he thought was harmlessly flirting, that she never came back
and he felt so bad that she was just there to earn some money.
That he really learned something. So we're talking about guys being creepy, she
says, I kid you not. While I was listening to the replay,
I was walking my dogs from my local park. There's an area where there's
nothing but green ponds and typically no one around. I off leash my tupups
here so I can get some running in. Dave, don't hate me for
having him off a leash. Yeah, I'm not a big fan of that
because I've known people who have gotten bit by dogs or off leash, but
I'm not here to judge about that. Anyway, my dogs alerted me to
this man by their weird reactions while I was giving them water. The man
was circling me. I carry a knife, but it still freaked me out.
I also felt rude by keeping my attention on him, so he knew
I knew of his close proximity. Don't feel rude. A decent guy would
not put you in a position of feeling unsafe. Yeah, so, even
if you are completely safe and he is not a predator or whatever, a
decent man would be like, you know what, I don't want that woman
to feel unsafe. I'm going to go head over towards the picnic table and
look on my phone for a little bit rather than circling her. Also,
one thing about a knife. Knife scare the shit out of people because even
if you don't know how to fight with a knife, nobody wants to get
cut or stabbed, and if you get close enough, they will get cut
or stabbed. So a knife is a great weapon. Oh yeah, for
sure better than nothing. For sure better than nothing. Yeah. So Kaylee,
leash your dogs and you didn't. I mean no, you did nothing
wrong. If you felt rude, that's part of the problem. You were
not rude by being you know, your what your radar going off? I
really yeah. I realized that like some guys who are like the majority of
men are obviously innocent. They're not trying to like grab a girl on a
trail. I feel I get that they might be like, oh god,
I don't want to. Like if they saw you looking at it, he
was an innocent guy and he saw you looking at him like oh, I
don't want to be that guy. He wouldn't be like, oh, what
a bitch, she has a knife or she's looking at me. He'd be
like, oh, A normal person be like I don't want to be that
guy and they would mosey on. Yeah, that's kind of what I said,
is that you're like, when I'm on a trail and I come up
behind a woman on a trail, I will fump No, I will thump
my feet down really hard so she'll hear me approaching, because I never wanted
to suddenly appear on her left and startle her. And that's just because you
know, I'm a dad and I'm not there to scare anybody. And I
know that as a guy, I don't have a responsibility to make her aware
that I'm there, but I feel like it's the right thing to do.
It is so weird when I've gone out and like gone on a walk and
I feel kind of alone, like it'll be a three mile walks in my
head, I know now I'm like at a halfway point, no either direction
I go. I'm not close to my car now. It is so weird
to pass someone that gives you an immediate feeling, like where your hair stand
up a little bit and you can't explain it. And I've even done the
thing in my head where I'm like, am I having this feeling over a
certain type of person? Like is there a certain look or I know,
I joke about the gene. I was going to ask you what not,
just that I don't know. I don't know what it is. Okay,
I'm like, it isn't like I don't know, I don't know how to
explain it. It's like so weird because I even have thought about that.
Is it any guy that like is extra thin? Or is it any guy
that's extra large? Is it any guy like? And there's no rhyme or
reason to what it is. It's like a weird and immediate feeling in my
body. Let's say you see me and I'm wearing shorts, and I'm wearing
like a you know, like a workout shirt, like you know, one
of those like kind of shiny whatever they're made out of. H And I
got a water bottle strap to my waist and I'm sweating and I'm running.
That wouldn't frighten you, because you know the guy is not there to be
a predator. Runners don't worry me at all because they are They don't even
look at you. Usually they're so in their running zone. Men and women,
you can tell they're like literally either completely checked out mentally or they're like
training for something, so I think, yeah, no, normally not a
runner, but so maybe I would eliminate runners. It's the walkers like me.
Apparently that's it. I don't blame you. You know you can't help
the way you feel about that. Hello to my favorite morning show. I
heard you discussing the Luke Combs cover a Fast Car on the show this morning.
While I am sick of hearing this song, I think it'd be cool
if Fallon did a deep dive on the Ogs song. Just a thought with
love from Aaron. I would consider it. I don't. I honestly don't
know if Rich would be okay with me playing that old of a song.
Yeah, it's thirty five years old. You play it my deep dive three
different times, and so I try to not choose songs that are crazy old.
So that's interesting though, since it is a remake and everyone knows the
remake now, I don't know. Maybe just look and see if there's anything
interesting about out it, because you know, if it's not interesting, then
there and that is that happens like Jenny. Every time I'm like, guys,
what should I do it? On? Jenny always brings up nickel Back.
She's obsessed with nickel Back, and I'm like, they have the most
boring stories. Like I looked up Photographed and I was like, yeah,
I just saw an old picture of my friend and wrote the song. Wow,
great story there. I mean, it was like, there's nothing to
tell an interesting chord progression. What does photograph? No, I ask you,
does it have an interest and being stupid because that would not make it
more interesting? All right, here we go nexting man, it says,
listening to my backlog of episodes, I hadn't listened to of your Minnesota Goodbye
June twenty eighth episode about your kids and how quickly kids grow up, Dave,
you said that you would try to take a mental picture of what it
was like to have a little boy. This is so true because time passes
so quickly. I remember one time in the kitchen, Carson was probably seven
or eight, and I'm gonna get emotional just talking about this, when I
said, I'm going to take a mental picture of what this moment is like
because he was just four. Now he's seven or eight. Let me take
a mental picture what does it feel like to have a seven year old boy?
And of course I took the mental picture but I don't remember. I
mean I kind of do, but I don't. She goes on to say,
I've got an almost eleven year old boy and he is our only.
The other night before bed, he was in our bedroom talking to us.
He said, what's your favorite memory? When I was blank age like six
years old or ten years old, I had a few memories that I loved,
and I had documented pictures Facebook post the like. However, I couldn't
recall certain age. It made me so sad to think that I can't remember
certain ages. Let me tell you something, Mom, you will be shocked
at how little you remember. In certain ways. You remember everything, but
remember their voice before their voice changed? Did you know Dylan before his voice
changed? Yeah, and we have. We are lucky our gen ration that
we can record voices so easily to go back and listen to their cute little
kid voices. Well, here's the problem with that is that Carson grew up
being videoed first before iPhone came along on like a video camera, and so
we got plenty of videos. We had them all transferred to DVD. We
don't have a DVD player, right, I mean somewhere we do. But
I remember a few years ago, what did Carson's little boy voice sound like?
Oh my god, I'm gonna get emotional, and I couldn't remember.
So I went back and I found him with his little boy voice, and
it was so cute. Dylan had a little raspy voice, which I think
is so when I had a little raspy voices. He grew out of the
rasp for some reason. But yeah, she goes on to say this year
has been his last elementary school year. I work at the middle school he's
attending next year. I found his first day of elementary school photo with him
and I on our front step, but left for a few minutes so I
could go back home and get the same shot for his last day. I'm
so glad I did that, and it is one of my favorite pictures.
I will attach it so you can see which you want. So it's basically
I love this so much. It looks like it's a different front porch.
I'm ninety percent sure. There's mom holding him. He's adorable on his first
day of elementary school, and then trying to hold him on his last day
of fifth grade. And I love how the fact that dog is stunging to
stand in by like, do you want me in this picture? Do you
need me in this picture? Thanks for a reminder of enjoying the time and
moments we have while he is still my little boy. Love you guys.
Page. I haven't a little This is a recommendation I would make. And
I have a little journal, and I try to every two or three bunths
or something write down things about Olive so that I'll remember. I don't do
a daily journal like Dave does. But like even now, if I went
and looked at her baby book, I wouldn't remember any of the stuff in
her baby book. I don't remember when she first had her solid food or
this or that, but I haven't written down, and it's stayed with like
why I had Jake document our entire birth story and delivery because I knew i'd
get it, and so I'm so happy he did. And then but like
I'll write down a few things, like here are the catchphrases she's saying,
Here's what shows she's into, Here's what food she's into, Here's something funny
she did, here's a trip or vacation we did, And just kind of
like a few bullet points about her, And I'll do that every few months,
and I do it for me, but I also do it so that
I can give it to her one day if she wants to look. And
that's cool. My mom kept a baby book for me. I'm going to
guess somebody gave it to her as a gift, but after six she would
have never bought one for herself, I don't think. And after she filled
it in a little bit, but not much. It says first gift a
ball. I got a ball for a first gift. Okay, that's great,
But she didn't write much in it, because I'm going to guess after
six kids, she didn't care and it wasn't really her style. I do
keep a journal almost every day, and that's another story, because I don't
do it like I used to every day. I used to do it,
and I was looking through once in a while and it said something like,
Carson did this tonight and when I put him to bed, and he did
this and it was so cute and I'll never forget it. I read that
and said, I don't have any idea what I'm talking about. I don't
know what it was, So you will forget a remarkable amount, but you'll
remember the overall vibe for sure. Next one questions, Dave, do you
ever get in trouble for talking badly about the head company iHeart? Well,
no, I don't really say anything too disparaging, And when I do say
something, I'll, for example, I'll say something like, you know what
the iHeart. Social media people do such a gross job with the garbage they
post. It's like, oh, Pat say, Jack offends another contestant on
Wheel of Fortune. I don't know who they're banging over a wheel of Fortune,
but every week they had some kind of Wheel of Fortune post and then
it was like something really stupid, like oh bb Rex's steps out with new
hairstyle. Shut the fuck? Who cares? But then I'll go and I
always try to say something positive, like of all the radio companies out there,
I heeart is no question to me absolutely the best or one of the
two or three best, because there's a lot that are not good. Oh
yeah, we're very innovative. We try to get by on not a lot
of money. We don't have the money that's some radio companies do, but
we got a lot more money than other ones do. So I just think
it's part of, like, you know, my brand of being honest,
because I'm not going to sit there and say, oh, my heart is
so wonderful. I get pissed because I Heart doesn't quite understand how to run
ads during a podcast, like when we do the Minnesota Goodbye and they run
the Chumba Casino ad. God loved Chumba casinover spend money. But my thing
was like, there's obviously somebody who's in charge of the podcast that doesn't respect
the listener experience. So I get pissed. But no, I don't get
in trouble because I'm not. I don't have anything bad to say about the
company. Okay, question for you fallon, is it awkward doing a Travis
Scott story when he's performing at the iHeart Radio Music Festival. No, not
even romally good. The good news is that there aren't a lot of stories
to cover with Travis Scott, honestly, But I wouldn't not share, Like
at the astral World tragedy happened. Now, I would still report it,
I guess, unless I was specifically told by corporate do not cover this story.
Well, I think they've they've kind of forgiven him now because if they
hadn't, like, you know, as a society forgiving him or moved past
it. He would not be at the iHeartRadio Music Festival, whereas I think
Chris brown would probably never be invited to the iHeartRadio Music Festival because people would
say, are you Some people have he seems to be doing just fine,
no matter, and he's gotten in more trouble since then, So it's like,
and that's what I mean, some people have. But I think it's
kind of like when Michael Vick was you know who Michael Vick is, and
he was like, you know, dog fighting and that type of thing,
and used to drown dogs and buckets of water, and people were like,
I never want to see him in the NFL again, And then he got
back in the NFL and people forgave him, but I'd still to me,
I would never have any respect for Michael Vick. No, I would never
have any respect for Chris Browne. There are certain things you do where it's
a mistake, and there are certain things that show your character. Beating up
a woman or drowning dogs in a bucket is a show of character. Are
Hello, Morning show crew? I was listening Today's Morning Show when Dave expressed
concerned about falling on his tailbone. It hurting himself fallon said, maybe a
tie a pillow round your waist. Well, I'm here to tell you that
music. Okay, got it, Thank you, Jenny Audio Emergency. I'm
here to tell you there are products designed specifically for butt falls. I've seen
tons of people rocking butt pads when learning to ski and snowboard and summer shaped
like turtles. How cute. I've really only seen kids wearing the turtle ones.
But you're gonna fall, at least your butt has a cute thing to
soften the landing. Thanks for the daily laughs, Leah. I'm going to
check that out. I got on my unicycle last night and I'm holding onto
the kitchen counter as I'm unicycling, and it is weird a f because when
you pedal a unicycle forward, your body stays back here. Now you want
to fall off backwards, so you got to keep leaning forward because as your
wheel goes forward, it doesn't carry your body with it. You've got to
move. It's weirdly put your feet down to stop. No, can you?
Is it like a kild bike where if you push the pedals backwards it
breaks? No? Well, no, I mean that's the thing. It
doesn't have like the gears and like you know, on a ten speed you're
pedaling and then you push backwards, it'll just spin. But it's not like
a kid's bike where you put on the brakes by stop. I haven't gotten
that far yet. You stop peddling. I don't know. Trust me.
I'm just now trying to move a couple of rotations forward at as saying at
the time, I hate it. I don't like it. I don't want
you on it. It scares me. Falin and be honest with you.
But so far, so good. I didn't worried about you doing it in
the kitchen. It's gonna hit your head on the counter, you know.
I'm not. I do concern. It gets concerned about that. I hit
myself and the balls with the seat last night, and that was not good.
All right. Next one, it says, new philosophy. Let's see
what we've got. I have a new philosophy. Instead of tribe striving for
perfection, I've decided that each day, if I don't work out, I
will at least floss my teeth. Okay, then I have something healthy and
habit for me that I accomplished and can be proud of. So ask yourself
each day, do you want to do a workout or go flosh your teeth
or you can do both. Either way you're winning. What do you think?
Pass it on? Rachelle? I like it. If it works for
you, it works for you. I don't think that flossing your teeth should
ever be an option. I think it's something you absolutely should do regularly,
if not every day. I floss every single day. And the reason I
do is because even though I floss every day, my hygienist, Heather shout
out, she's awesome. She's like, you got a floss or they're going
to recede or you're going to expose some root. And that might not happen
when you're twenty two or thirty two, but by the time you're forty two,
if you have not flossed, you're going to start exposing some roots.
By the time you're fifty two, they're gonna start pulling teeth out. Plus,
when you floss, even after you brush, and you see what it
produces, you're like, holy crap, am I glad I floss? Yeah,
you'll pull an entire t bone steak. How do your back molars and
you're like, damn, I'm really glad that I flost. Seriously, when
you see what flossing produces, you'll floss more often. Yeah. How often
do you floss? I don't floss very often at all. I just did
this week once. Yeah. I'm not going to sit here and preach at
you, but it is a is a good thing. Yeah they what do
they say? Floss only the teeth you want. Yeah. So all right,
that's it for the Minnesota. Goodbye, have a great day. Send
your emails about flossing or creepy guys or anything you want to bring up.
