WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:03.560 Well, here we go with the Minnesota Goodbye. Hopefully it'll go better than 2 00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:08.199 yesterday's Minnesota Goodbye, which you probably heard. We did about twenty minutes or 3 00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:11.160 so, and then we looked at it was not recording. Yeah, so 4 00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:14.519 that we did ten minutes. So let's see what happens this time. It 5 00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:17.199 is a Friday. I want to mention I want to plug this because I 6 00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:20.600 would love to let you have you come with your kid. I'm doing Toddler 7 00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:25.679 Tuesday Mall of America Tuesday at four o'clock in the rotunda, reading my book 8 00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:29.800 to kids and doing a little magic and selling the book and signing it and 9 00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:33.439 getting pictures and that type of thing. Toddler Tuesday. Don't look at me, 10 00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:35.560 Jenny, I know you're not going to show up. I don't expect 11 00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:37.679 you to. Well, that one feels like a weird event for me to 12 00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:40.640 show up. That feels like one where kids, parents bring their kids. 13 00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:44.200 I don't have a child. I might act like a toddler sometimes I don't 14 00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:46.560 have one myself. Anyway, I'd love to have you come out there. 15 00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:51.359 So just another plug to get your kid this delightful book, Little Dave's Amazing 16 00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:57.079 Day. Let's start in with the Minnesota goodbye emails and here we go. 17 00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:02.479 Hey, it says, the piggyback of your worst song ever is a song? 18 00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:06.959 Is there a song that encompasses you or your journey or personality? Mine 19 00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:11.040 is flowed on by modest mouse. You guys are amazing and thanks for all 20 00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:14.599 you contribute to my mental health. The podcast of Jenny and the Old Susi 21 00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:19.040 Wager has lived in my head rent free ever since it's airing. There are 22 00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:26.439 so many quality that's what she said jokes signing off a right or maintain your 23 00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:30.719 booty hole? Didn't we we? We? We we named a podcast one 24 00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:34.560 time, maintain your booty hole. I have no idea. I'm sure we 25 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.359 have, but there have been so many ridiculous names of polo. Like yesterday 26 00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.879 I named the podcast mullets, and it's like we only we did talk about 27 00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:45.599 mullets for a little bit. But like, I don't ever remember for sure 28 00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:48.959 what that podcast was about. If I went back to it, we could 29 00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:53.959 call this one either float on or maintain your booty Hole too. Part two. 30 00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:57.120 I forget what we were talking it was about. It was like wipe 31 00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:00.840 carefully something like that. I don't remember for sure, Oh, I know 32 00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:04.640 what it was. Yes, I know what it was. I was saying 33 00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:07.959 that if you have a little kid that's eight years old and they got brown 34 00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.680 streaks in their underpants, they're eight years old, who cares. But if 35 00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:15.360 you've got a thirty four year old husband that still has brown streaks in his 36 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:19.280 underpants, he needs to grow the fuck up and learn to maintain his booty 37 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:22.280 hole. You need to take care of that thing. And I'm not going 38 00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:25.000 to get into specifics because I have a podcast about it. No, I'm 39 00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:30.719 kidding, but seriously to that go this one. But it's like, Okay, 40 00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:34.000 if you are eighteen years old and you still have brown streaks in your 41 00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:37.919 underwear, men or women, you got to grow up maintain your booty hole. 42 00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:39.120 And I think I was telling the story about how one time I was 43 00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:42.960 with a girl and like, you know, the next morning or whatever, 44 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.360 got out of bed and there was her underpants on the floor and they were 45 00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:49.479 white, kind of like regular underwear. They weren't like your sex underwear, 46 00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:53.759 because you know, you have your sex underwear. And I remember there's a 47 00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:57.400 big brown streak, and I was like, God, yeah, gros, 48 00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:00.719 but did she have like big like juicy about cheeks because then I feel kind 49 00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:02.879 of bad, like what if she can't get in there she needs? Okay, 50 00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:07.400 you can't get in there because I have a large behind. And I'm 51 00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.199 not going to go into details, but I please do. Let's hear the 52 00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:15.439 details. I feel her pain, like I'm sorry. We also have a 53 00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:16.879 bi day at home. Shout out Cookie, because Cookie, who listens to 54 00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:21.000 the show, gave me that a day and it's amazing. But like I'm 55 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:24.360 be honest, I have to do different things to clean the area because of 56 00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:29.080 how large my backside is. Yeah, so maybe I feel bad for that 57 00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:36.560 girl. Okay, I mean I guess that is I've never thought. I've 58 00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:39.800 never thought about that before. I did. Used to work with a woman 59 00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:45.520 named Corey Foley who used to work with a really large guy on the radio, 60 00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:47.039 and she asked him, like, how do you wash? He said, 61 00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:51.080 With a rag on a stick? He literally, I guess, would 62 00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:53.919 have a rag on a stick to reach everything from like you know, his 63 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:57.599 groin area to his booty hole or whatever with a rag on his stick. 64 00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.479 And so rag on his stick was kind of a running joke on our show, 65 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:03.120 Rag on a stick. Maybe you call the episode rag on a stick. 66 00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:08.639 I don't know anyway, Let's go back to her original question. Original 67 00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:13.560 question, is there a song that encompasses you your journey or personality? I 68 00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:17.240 would say I really love It's an old song. It's by a band named 69 00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:20.439 Boston from the seventies. It's called Don't Look Back, and the lyrics are 70 00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:23.600 just kind of like I just like him. It's like, don't look back, 71 00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:26.920 basically, look ahead. It says, don't look back. A new 72 00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.439 day is breaking. It's been too long since I felt this way. I 73 00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:33.040 don't mind where I get taken. The road is calling. Today is the 74 00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:36.720 day. So it's about a band basically, but it's more to me. 75 00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:40.439 It's like, don't look back at all this shit that's in your past. 76 00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.079 It's a new day. And I really like that song. It's like, 77 00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:46.120 oh, it gets me a little chill just thinking about it because it tells 78 00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:50.600 you move on, move ahead, don't look back. Is there a song 79 00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:54.839 that encompasses your life? I'm not sure about like my whole life, but 80 00:04:54.920 --> 00:05:00.160 there's a song that I've listened to essentially, like any time that I've had 81 00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:05.600 either an interview or if I've felt down, like about myself and my abilities 82 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:10.519 because in general, I'm always kind of in my head like, oh, 83 00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.959 you are kind of dumb. You don't know anything. But it's not that 84 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:16.040 I don't know anything, it's just that I haven't learned it yet. And 85 00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:20.360 so I listen to this song called I'm a Star and it's sung by a 86 00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:26.160 Broadway lady. Her name's Natalie Weiss, and it's just her talking about like 87 00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.360 how she deserves what comes to her and that she's she has passion, she 88 00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:35.399 has guts, she deserves it and it shows and that everybody should kind of, 89 00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:39.560 you know, notice that she's a star. And I just listened to 90 00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:45.800 that literally, like the loudest possible before any kind of interview. I listened 91 00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:48.680 to it like every single day before I met with Rich for my interview here. 92 00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:51.279 Really wow, I was just like, I'm a star, I'm a 93 00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:55.879 star. I'm a star, because that's great. I believe it eventually. 94 00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:58.920 I guess if you tell yourself something enough times, and if you tell yourself 95 00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:00.079 that, you know that it goes the other way too. If you tell 96 00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:02.959 yourself negative things enough times, you start to believe it. Jenny, what 97 00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:08.160 song encompasses your life? I think Unstoppable by Sea is a good one because 98 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:10.279 there's lyrics in it. I just pulled it up. It's like I put 99 00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:12.600 my armor on, show you how strong I am. I put my armor 100 00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.240 on. I'll show you that I am. And it's like I I put 101 00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:19.199 out a front a lot of times when I'm dealing with things because I don't 102 00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:23.600 always want people to know I'm dealing with things. But I will keep going 103 00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:27.279 no matter what. So you might not see me going through some shit, 104 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.480 but I might be, but I'm going to get through it because I am 105 00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:33.519 unstoppable. And stop say I love that. I love that, you know, 106 00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:35.639 I never thought about that one. A song that kind of like gets 107 00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:41.199 you pumped up or kind of encompasses your life. So good question. Yeah, 108 00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:43.920 if you've got one, let me know. Send me your email with 109 00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:46.560 a song that encompasses your life. And why thank you, Rhiann? I 110 00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:50.079 think is how you say your name for an excellent staff writer email. Here's 111 00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:55.560 our old friend Demante Matthews. He says, why don't why doesn't vont want 112 00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:59.800 people to know his name is Davante as a Demante, I take offense to 113 00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:03.199 that. L I'm super happy you all got him and Bailey on the show. 114 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:06.000 You all go together well, and I'm excited about this combo. I 115 00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:09.879 want to give some advice for people who are listening to the podcast and want 116 00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:13.480 to skip commercials. Let's hear it without pulling out your phone. I've tried 117 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:15.879 to tell listeners about this, but Dave keeps skipping over it in my emails 118 00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:20.319 for some reason. Sorry, let's try again. I guess if you double 119 00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:26.040 click your earbud, it will skip about thirty seconds ahead, and if you 120 00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:30.720 triple click, it rewinds fifteen seconds. I'm not sure it works for any 121 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:34.879 earbuds, but I got Apple Beats. And also, since Vonte or vont 122 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:41.120 is a much better employee than Drake could also it's okay I read it again. 123 00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:45.360 Also, since Vonte vont is a much better employee than Drake could ever 124 00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:48.480 be Sorry, but I could tell Drake was a slacker. Can you get 125 00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:54.240 him to try and put the hour by hour podcast in backwards order so they 126 00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:57.240 play in the correct order without having to go on the app and close and 127 00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:00.720 choose the next hour. That makes sense? Peace and blas things to all 128 00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:03.759 dart Lick, right, But we do that? Do we do that? 129 00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:07.759 I don't know how it works. I thought that you I thought that that's 130 00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:11.800 how it was. I'm locking. Yeah, that's how it should go. 131 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:15.759 So you should be able to hit the six o'clock hour and then it moves 132 00:08:16.120 --> 00:08:22.519 backwards to the seven o'clock is how it should go. Maybe different podcasting platforms 133 00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:24.639 are different. I think I know what it is on iHeart though, So 134 00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:28.199 if you go into your if you go into the Dave Ryan Show podcast and 135 00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:31.919 then sort it when you're up at like all episodes, sort it by newest 136 00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.919 instead of by oldest. I think that'll unless you already have that done. 137 00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:39.279 And I'm just kind of being like, you know what you should do, 138 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:43.200 but mine plays in order. I mean, you just got to sort it 139 00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.200 by newest. You go back and listen to the podcast, do you really? 140 00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:48.399 Yeah? Okay, that's interesting. I don't. Oh well, and 141 00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:54.240 that's fine. I'm curious why you do, because I'm proud of myself. 142 00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:58.440 Okay, fair enough. Yeah, I mean there there used to be something 143 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.519 when I was new, and it was called an air check, and it's 144 00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:05.720 still called an air check, but it's basically records just the talking part of 145 00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:07.399 the radio show. Doesn't record the songs, doesn't record the music, but 146 00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:11.519 whenever the microphone on you would have back in the day, you'd put a 147 00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:15.360 cassette in the air check machine and then you would go back and listen to 148 00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:18.919 your show to see how you did. Yeah. I've got a basement full 149 00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:24.360 of thousands of air check cassettes going back to when I was seventeen or eighteen 150 00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:26.919 years old, and I never listened to them. And I don't listen to 151 00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:33.159 the show today because I probably should, but I'm glad that you do, 152 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.200 because you want to hear how Oh that was dumb on me to say, 153 00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:37.759 oh, that was really that really worked that type of thing, right, 154 00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:39.799 I think, Oh, I really sucked at that part, And then I 155 00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:41.879 listened to it back and I'm like, oh, it doesn't sound bad though, 156 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:45.759 so in my head I sucked. Can I tell you you reminded me 157 00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:50.200 of something I saw an article that oh I got to pull it up and 158 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.320 maybe we can expand on this. But the article was something that was so 159 00:09:54.879 --> 00:10:01.039 telling about like our mental health and a way to feel healthier about socializing and 160 00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:05.919 that type of thing. They did studies and I won't repeat back the results 161 00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:07.840 because I don't know him off the top of my head, but the studies 162 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:11.519 basically show we do way better in a conversation than we think we did. 163 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:16.799 And I thought that was really fascinating, because when we meet somebody at an 164 00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:20.279 office party or a wedding or whatever, we walk away going, oh, 165 00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:24.720 that person probably thought I was stupid. Yeah, But the other person, 166 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:28.000 when they asked, they say, oh, yeah, they were funny, 167 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:31.399 they were engaging, they were great. But don't we all have a tendency. 168 00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:35.799 I know I do that. When you walk away from a conversation with 169 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:41.480 your boss or your boss's wife, or a coworker at a work party or 170 00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:43.919 a wedding or whatever, you'll tend to say, ah, I was so 171 00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:48.559 boring and stupid, And I bet they thought I was stupid when actually they 172 00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:52.360 did a big study instead the other person they kind of feel that way too, 173 00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:56.559 but they thought you were really engaging. Isn't that interesting? It is? 174 00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:58.879 I just experienced it last night. We had a retirement party for a 175 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:03.600 coworker and I feel like I was talking to this one sales girl and I 176 00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:05.440 like brought up eyebrows at one point, and I feel like I had the 177 00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:07.960 conversation going for too long and I was like, oh my god, do 178 00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:11.279 you have nothing of better substance to talk about right now, Jenny, Like, 179 00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:15.399 what the hell? But she was fully engaged in the conversation. It's 180 00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:16.399 not like she wasn't. But at the same time, I was in my 181 00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.799 head, like, think of something more interesting to talk about, Like, 182 00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.840 I mean, I was there and I witnessed this conversation and she seemed like 183 00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:28.080 she wanted to talk to you about it. I like it, right so 184 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:31.679 then, but that's how exactly what Dave just described. I was in my 185 00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:35.159 head about it, but you've witnessed that she seemed into it. Weally wants 186 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:35.960 to talk about it. We need to talk about that in the radio. 187 00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:39.360 Can you make a note for next week? Because I've read that yesterday and 188 00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:43.320 I saved the article because it was so interesting, because I think that is 189 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:48.440 something we all have in common, probably even extroverts. And you're more of 190 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:50.960 an extrovert than me. I'm kind of a quiet I can turn on the 191 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:56.759 extrovert part because I do enjoy it. Yeah, I'm just not I can't 192 00:11:56.759 --> 00:11:58.519 do it for a long time, right, you know what I mean? 193 00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:01.360 In a room full of If I'm in a room full of strangers, which 194 00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:05.960 was last night at this retirement party, gosh, I fo no, you 195 00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:11.720 did great. I saw so many familiar faces, and I looked over and 196 00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:13.080 Bailey was on her phone standing alone, and I said, I'm going to 197 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.320 go rescue Bailey. So I went and grabbed Bailey and introduced you to the 198 00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:20.600 boss and the boss's wife. And I did like the boss's wife. She's 199 00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:22.399 very charming. Yeah, and you know what, You're very charming. But 200 00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.039 I think it's around It's like all of us, are you too, listening 201 00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:30.000 to the show, You're also charming when you're around the people that you love 202 00:12:30.039 --> 00:12:33.919 and you're comfortable with. You're probably not shy around your best friends. No, 203 00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:37.360 you're fun around your best friends, all right, So yeah, make 204 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.519 a note next week, we'll talk about that. It is really interesting. 205 00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:43.960 Next one. Rachel says, good morning, Dave, Ryan's show crew. 206 00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.200 I'm super excited about the changes of the show with the addition to vont and 207 00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:50.000 Bailey, and so grateful for all the hard work that you put into making 208 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:56.480 a show that quite literally makes my mourning every day. Soak that in for 209 00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:00.440 a minute. It quite literally makes her mourning every day. I love that 210 00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:05.159 so much that anybody feels that way about the show. I am no longer 211 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:07.639 in Minnesota, but I still listen every day, and I have for the 212 00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:11.399 last fifteen plus years. With the changes on the show, I'm curious if 213 00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:16.679 you be able to share each other's show, each show member's job titles and 214 00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:20.720 responsibilities on the show. I'm nosy and I like to know the behind the 215 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:22.600 scenes details, and I'm sure there are other listeners who feel the same. 216 00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.960 I'm already a proud owner of a staff writer sticker, so no need for 217 00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:31.440 another one. Ah right. That's from Rachel and we do the alright sign 218 00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:37.639 off because it's a spin on the old Country Buffet training video where he's like, 219 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.679 would you like the roast beef for lasagna? I'll have lasagnah right, 220 00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:46.519 And so that's where all right comes from. Jenny, you're the producer of 221 00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:50.639 the show. Describe each person on the show's title and duty. Well, 222 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:54.840 I mean, Dave is clearly the host. I think I'm technically still executive 223 00:13:54.840 --> 00:14:00.679 producer and co host. I don't truly know what Bailey's title is. She's 224 00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:05.279 co host, helps with production like kind of a system producer at the same 225 00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:07.960 time, like she's gonna she helped well, I mean she's just learning. 226 00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:11.320 So yeah, we don't even know. We don't even know for sure exactly 227 00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:16.440 her responsibilities. But so we don't really have set responsibilities for Bailey yet, 228 00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:20.840 except for like a few things that you've been doing. Vont is our social 229 00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:26.960 media guru, slash co host, slash a system producer, slash phone screener, 230 00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:31.799 slash vant does fucking everything. I don't know. You know, it's 231 00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:35.799 funny because somebody mentioned a little while ago, Demante mentioned that he could tell 232 00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:39.960 that Vont is very ambitious and absolutely and I worry about Vont sometimes because I 233 00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:45.840 don't want him to get burnt out, and he does not do the night 234 00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:48.320 show anymore, so he's got plenty of time to have the afternoon to himself. 235 00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:52.200 But truthfully, I don't know what Vont does in the afternoon. I 236 00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:54.159 don't know that he's made friends here yet, and I do worry about him 237 00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:56.559 a little bit. That if you and I've been this way too. When 238 00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:00.000 I moved to Las Vegas for my first morning show, I was Vont's age 239 00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:03.519 and I didn't really have any friends. But I got a girlfriend and that 240 00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:05.559 made the biggest difference in the world, because now I had somebody to hang 241 00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:09.799 out within the afternoon. Vont's girlfriends in New Jersey. Yeah, so I 242 00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:13.159 worry about Vont a little bit because he really has nothing right now but the 243 00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.799 show. Yeah, so I think that we should all take him golfing. 244 00:15:16.840 --> 00:15:20.960 What do you think golfing? Yeah, well it's just a night bowlding, 245 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:22.480 know if Yeah, I was gonna say maybe more like bullying, because gold 246 00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:26.960 is not I don't think vonts into sports, and golfing is definitely not a 247 00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:31.960 sport you just go play one day, okay, oh, bowling, mini 248 00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:37.279 golf. I'm trying to get him into into improv I'm slowly. I've gotten 249 00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:39.679 him. I've met he's met people because of me. So really, yeah, 250 00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:43.120 okay, cool, I've got his back. I've invited Vont to things 251 00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:46.039 that I know he doesn't want to go to, like watching sports events, 252 00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:50.639 and then he doesn't want to come because it's not his thing. Yeah, 253 00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:54.799 I get that, you know. I I think that, you know. 254 00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:58.840 My responsibility on the show is, I mean, probably what you expect. 255 00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:02.120 I get to make all the big decisions about, you know, who to 256 00:16:02.200 --> 00:16:04.120 hire. I don't get to decide who to fire. I really don't. 257 00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:08.039 People are like you fired Drake. No, I did not fire Drake. 258 00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:12.879 You fired Steve No I fought for Steve. He was on the chopping block 259 00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:17.039 probably six times, and I fought for him every time. I said, 260 00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:19.600 anybody but Steve, anybody but Steve, anybody but Steve. And they finally 261 00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:22.960 did it without asking me. Yeah, because the budget cuts and they and 262 00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:27.720 they had to so but you know, it was like, do you like 263 00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:30.879 Vont, Yeah, let's get him on the show. So we worked really 264 00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:33.919 hard and Jenny helped too to help get Vont on the show. And Bailey 265 00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:37.519 also, it's like, you know, we need somebody who's wacky, quirky, 266 00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:41.039 something, you know, to like add a different element to the show. 267 00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:42.519 Let's get Bailey on the show. So now I think we have a 268 00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:47.759 well rounded show. But I also, you know, I'm the one who 269 00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:51.480 you know, we all contribute ideas, but I guess I have the responsibility 270 00:16:51.519 --> 00:16:53.200 of being the final yes. No. So if Jenny's like, let's do 271 00:16:55.159 --> 00:16:57.919 fart in a can and win, and I'd be like, ah, Jenny, 272 00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:00.279 do you think that's the best idea, She's like, it sounds really 273 00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:03.960 funny, and so she brought in a Folgers coffee can and she farted into 274 00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:07.759 it and it sounded it was really funny. But I said, it's not 275 00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:11.319 really our brand. Well, you know what, I think we should change 276 00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:15.480 our brand then, because I feel like it could be No. Yeah, 277 00:17:15.920 --> 00:17:21.039 Dave definitely, like Dave helps molled a lot of ideas too, like we 278 00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:23.359 can all have kind of like starter ideas, and Dave makes it to be 279 00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:27.400 like what it is on the radio a lot of times, so there might 280 00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:33.240 be some farting and can ideas. One Day's on vacation, Yes, pans 281 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:37.839 girls day part in the can you know that's right? Valin? Who was 282 00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:41.359 it that came up with toot and Tuesday? And she was joking, it's 283 00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:45.400 like, okay, we're gonna do toot and Tuesday. And there was an 284 00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.960 intern on the show and his name is Dylan and he's got got got an 285 00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:55.240 idea for a bit what's your idea for a bit paper tube Tuesday? So 286 00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:57.200 you bring in a paper towel tube and you talk into the paper tube on 287 00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:06.279 HiT's and I said that's funny once. But what was funnier was how passionate 288 00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:11.559 he was about this stupid bit paper tube Tuesday. And that was funnier than 289 00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:15.440 because we would make fun of him because it was so stupid. But he's 290 00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:18.160 like I'm passionate. This is it, this is my this is my thing 291 00:18:18.160 --> 00:18:19.359 that I'm contributing. We know, it's funny. His name is Dylan. 292 00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:22.359 Did you ever know Dylan? I did, but he intern at the same 293 00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:26.000 time as me, but we were on opposite days. So the only time 294 00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:27.799 I ever met him was I think we all went to like all the interns 295 00:18:27.799 --> 00:18:30.599 went to a jingle ball together. We weren't working, we were just actually 296 00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:33.920 got to go and like watch it. And he was so funny and like 297 00:18:34.119 --> 00:18:37.839 out there. Dylan was great, He really was. And he was like 298 00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:41.519 kind of like he reminded me of intern John because he's kind of a smart 299 00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:45.000 ass, very funny and always willing to do whatever. And he is now 300 00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:49.519 a pretty big deal program director in Portland Portland now wow, So yeah, 301 00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:53.680 he's kind of a big deal in the company. And he's he's very likable. 302 00:18:55.160 --> 00:19:00.319 He's just a very likable non it's not about Dylan, it's about you, 303 00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:02.559 and Dylan makes it about you, and I thought that's very cool. 304 00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:06.480 Intern's coming out of kW B really themselves well you know they have. And 305 00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:11.720 who's what Mackenzie was, She she was an Internalso was an intern. Kensey's 306 00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:15.799 a big star in Chicago now was in Sam san Severe, an intern never 307 00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:18.319 on my show. For some reason, I thought she was okay. Then 308 00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:22.759 maybe a different show, we did have an intern DJ, Sammy Sam and 309 00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:29.440 she is now like a big producer over on Fox nine. And so intern 310 00:19:29.519 --> 00:19:30.920 John came out of this show. He's huge, he's on. He's like 311 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:36.519 an award winning big DJ in d C and Baltimore. Angie Taylor came out 312 00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:41.920 of this show fallon Lina No. Angie Taylor was a beer tub girl at 313 00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:47.240 Waterworks Beach Club in Centerville, and then she started hanging out on the at 314 00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:49.960 the radio station and she filled in on the morning show. And she was 315 00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:56.079 a natural, just a natural, like a smart ass, funny, brash 316 00:19:56.160 --> 00:20:00.240 bold and she was a natural. And so she went on to work in 317 00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:03.759 Philadelphia, I think. And then now she's got her own big show in 318 00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:07.400 Chicago. Yep, she's crushing it. She is. Okay, I think 319 00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:14.920 we have time for maybe one more or do we have time for money? 320 00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:18.039 Okay, good, Okay, here we go. Mike one of our staff 321 00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:22.359 writers, he says, Heidi Ho Dave Ryan show Peep says, always so 322 00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:26.000 appreciate what you do for all of us in radio and iheartland out here. 323 00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:29.559 Thanks for making the start of each workday so much easier and fun. Well, 324 00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:32.960 thank you comments on today's War of the Roses. First of all, 325 00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:36.960 a six and eight year old almost setting the dog on fire? How do 326 00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:40.359 children that age get that idea, let alone? What would they need to 327 00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:42.240 set the dog on fire? I didn't think about that, but that's a 328 00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:47.759 good question. Vanessa first sounded like she was complaining. In reality, she 329 00:20:47.839 --> 00:20:51.279 was communicating her situation.
