I'm going to start off with a new 34 00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:37.519 unusual little observation. Bailey uses a paper planner, like a 35 00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:41.079 thin little It's about the size of an index card. 36 00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.359 It's in Hallmark and three and you get them for free. 37 00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:47.359 And that's interesting because I don't use a paper planner. 38 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:50.400 I use my phone, and I think I probably have 39 00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:54.599 been for I don't know many years, even before there 40 00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:57.519 was an iPhone, I had a palm pilot. Do you 41 00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:58.840 remember the palm plallots. 42 00:01:58.879 --> 00:01:59.760 I never had one of those. 43 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:03.359 They were, you know, they were the precursor to the iPhone, 44 00:02:03.359 --> 00:02:06.400 and they went away, and that's what I kept my 45 00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:09.520 schedule in before that, I think I also had maybe 46 00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:12.159 a paper planner. I'm not really sure, but I've always 47 00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:15.400 been like I love digital gadgets, So even back in 48 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:18.759 the eighties, I had a digital gadget that was part calculator, 49 00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:22.280 part planner, and I think that I've kept my schedule 50 00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:24.039 on that. But you prefer I like. 51 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:25.960 Paper, and I've always used paper. Even when I was 52 00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:30.479 like twenty two, I just printed out like pictures of 53 00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:32.960 like each month as a calendar so I could write 54 00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:34.599 in it. I like them because I can keep them 55 00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:36.960 in my purse and they just like sit right there. 56 00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:40.599 They're always there versus my phone is. I don't know, 57 00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:42.439 it could be like in the other room. Like I 58 00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:44.280 always know where my planner is, and then I keep 59 00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:46.479 little white out next to me or in my bag 60 00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:48.879 as well, so if I need to wipe something out 61 00:02:48.919 --> 00:02:50.360 rewrite something, I can. 62 00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:52.639 And that works. And so where it So where do 63 00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:53.919 you get it free? You go down to the hall. 64 00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:56.560 Mall market, Yeah, which there aren't very many hallmarks anymore. 65 00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:01.840 So Yeah, there's maybe like five total around the cities, 66 00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:05.159 but not like anywhere nearby. So there's one near Mounts 67 00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:07.800 High School where I coached speech. So I went yesterday 68 00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:09.159 on a special. 69 00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:10.039 Area was the front desk or what? 70 00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:11.240 Do they have them right at the front desk? 71 00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:13.360 And I always buy a card as well, so I 72 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:15.439 don't feel bad for just walking in and taking a planner. 73 00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:19.520 There's a Hallmark store in Eden Prairie Center. Other than that, 74 00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:22.120 I'm sure there's one in probably mall of America. Yeah, 75 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.439 but yeah, I think everybody gets their cards and everything 76 00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:29.240 either via like CVS or Walgreen or Target. And you 77 00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:30.960 don't really need to go into a Hallmark store, but 78 00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:33.280 they do much so much more. They do, you know, candles, 79 00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:36.919 and yeah, they had ornaments, ornament decorative things like do dads. 80 00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.199 There were a butt ton of ladies in Hallmark yesterday 81 00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:41.919 when I went in. Yes, they were all like over 82 00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.680 seventy five yep, but it was it was a pop 83 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:47.319 in place, and they had cookies by the door. 84 00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:49.919 WHOA, I got to take these cookie on my way out. 85 00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.639 First email from Kyle says, so Shaboozy's bar song has 86 00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:56.560 been on the top forty for a long time. Great song, 87 00:03:56.639 --> 00:03:59.520 great album, but the music video is pretty basic as 88 00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:02.000 there's probably no budget when they made it. Oddly enough, 89 00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.439 it might be the most stream music video on YouTube 90 00:04:04.759 --> 00:04:08.439 that was ever made in one single cut, one unbroken take. 91 00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:11.919 Now that might be. I would also say go back 92 00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:14.360 and watch Spice Girls Want to Be because that song 93 00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:18.199 was also done in one unbroken cut and it's really 94 00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:21.759 super cool. I got two Hot one style questions for 95 00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.079 the morning show crew, since their toes are dipped in 96 00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:27.319 the music industry. First, do you think the music industry 97 00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:30.519 cares about music videos anymore? What monetary benefit does a 98 00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:34.560 music video serve compared to streaming dues, merge concert sales. 99 00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.240 I don't know. I think they do, but I don't 100 00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:39.439 think that people really talk about the videos like they 101 00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:42.680 used to. I don't know. I think that if they 102 00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:45.000 have a great song, they will do whatever it takes 103 00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:47.680 to promote it. But it used to be, Yeah, get 104 00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:50.720 a video, make sure it's played on MTV. This was 105 00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:54.720 years ago. And if you go back and look at 106 00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:59.519 some of the early videos on MTV, they're bad, like early, 107 00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:04.480 like all and notes Phil Collins YouTube videos, They're just bad. 108 00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:07.399 And there were some really creative ones like Thriller and 109 00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:10.040 beat It in that type of thing. Thank you Von 110 00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:14.680 and you Smell Good by the way, Thank you, Hey, 111 00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.199 you guys, Von just came in and like moved a button. 112 00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:20.800 So I don't really know what the industry thinks about 113 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:23.319 music video. Second, what kind of influence do you believe 114 00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.120 you had over making this particular song popular. I know 115 00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.480 you're not the deciders, but you must have some say 116 00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:31.360 in what's worth playing and what's not. Does your popularity 117 00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:33.759 in this small market account for more than a larger 118 00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:39.160 market with a less popular listener, bass, I think that, 119 00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:42.040 you know. I said, Okay, I made this song a 120 00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:45.279 hit because I found this song back in March or whatever, 121 00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:46.399 and I said, this song is going to be the 122 00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:49.720 song of the summer, and then it really was, But 123 00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:51.720 it would have been the song of the summer without. 124 00:05:51.519 --> 00:05:54.560 Writing, without saying anything about her, I just. 125 00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:56.160 Kind of thought it was funny that I really liked it, 126 00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:57.959 and I was right about being such a big song. 127 00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:00.000 I said the same thing though, write at the big 128 00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:02.000 of summer when we all had to pick our songs 129 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:03.920 of the summer and I picked Chapel Rone and you 130 00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:05.319 were like, I don't know what the song is, I've 131 00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:07.000 never heard of it, And yeah, it wasn't the song 132 00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:08.360 of the summer, but it was a big song. 133 00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:11.480 Over the summer. So I invented chapel rone. 134 00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:14.639 You did invent chapel rone. Finally, love to hear what 135 00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:16.240 you think. I wrote emails before, but I would love 136 00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:19.000 a staff writers sticker. Now it's a pretty cool fan badge. 137 00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:21.839 Love the show. Thank you for everything that is Kyle 138 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:25.199 from E Dina and your sticker is on the way. 139 00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.120 I always loved When I was in high school, there 140 00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:32.680 was a channel called fuse on like like fancy cable, 141 00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:37.240 and they were like they played the emo music videos 142 00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:39.480 and like rock and roll and everything, and so they 143 00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:41.480 had kind of like a TRL sort of deal. 144 00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:42.199 But it was called. 145 00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:44.680 Steven's Unentitled Rock Show and it just showed a bunch 146 00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:48.759 of like rock and roll in emo music videos and 147 00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.279 I loved that show. But I used to like wake 148 00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:54.120 up early and like sit and watch VH one music 149 00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:56.279 videos and that was like every morning. 150 00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:57.800 And now like, I don't remember the last time I 151 00:06:57.800 --> 00:06:58.920 watched a music video period. 152 00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:01.519 Yeah. Same. If you know, you might go on YouTube 153 00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:03.959 and look up the latest Taylor Swift music video or whatever, 154 00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.519 but I don't. I don't really know how they, you know, 155 00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:10.439 find their audience. Now, I guess if you're a swifty 156 00:07:10.600 --> 00:07:12.759 or a big fan, then you will go look for it. 157 00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:14.680 But I don't know, that's a good question about videos. 158 00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:17.240 It used to be, and you predate MTV, which is 159 00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:22.120 now forty three years old. MTV came out in about 160 00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:25.360 September of nineteen eighty one, and I'll just give you 161 00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:28.600 a little history on it. It was really interesting because 162 00:07:28.680 --> 00:07:31.480 it first came out just in New York, New Jersey, 163 00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:36.439 Connecticut that area, and then cable companies wouldn't carry it, 164 00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:40.480 so you know, like your local cable company wouldn't carry it, 165 00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:44.360 and so they had a campaign where they would tell 166 00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:47.319 people call your local cable company and tell them, I 167 00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:48.600 want my MTV. 168 00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:52.439 I remember that, I mean just from like a trivia. 169 00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:55.000 And so there's a phrase like even in the song 170 00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:58.160 by Dire Straits, I want my MTV. 171 00:07:58.560 --> 00:07:59.600 That's maybe where I know it from. 172 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:04.680 And that song came out in eighty five, right as 173 00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:07.560 MTV was pretty much everywhere, but people would call their 174 00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:10.920 local cable company and say, I want my MTV. And 175 00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:14.959 MTV was something that I didn't have when it first 176 00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:17.800 came out, but when I got my first apartment when 177 00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:21.680 I was twenty, I loved MTV. I would sit and 178 00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:24.000 watch videos, and you would have your friends over and 179 00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:26.319 you would, you know, order a pizza and just sit 180 00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:30.720 and watch MTV. There was no commercials back then. There 181 00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:34.120 were no commercials, no commercials on cable because the reason 182 00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:36.679 there were no commercials on cables because you're already paying 183 00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:41.919 for the service, So why would they run commercials on 184 00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:45.559 a paid service. Then they found out they can get 185 00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:48.720 away with it, so they run commercials on everything now 186 00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:52.519 because they can get away with it. Yeah, MTV used 187 00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:56.200 to be no commercials, just videos. Yeah, kind of cool. 188 00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:56.679 It's nice. 189 00:08:56.799 --> 00:08:58.840 All right, here we go next one. Megan says, I 190 00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.600 fucking love one need. I was hollering and clapping in 191 00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:04.600 my quiet basement home office as I was listening to 192 00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:07.279 we're talking about blocking the A holes truck until he 193 00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:09.279 moved his car out of the cart out of the 194 00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:12.720 handicapped spot. Sticking up for the elderly, handicapped, and special 195 00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:15.480 needs has always been something I never hesitate with strangers 196 00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:17.559 or not. My boyfriend is waiting for the day he's 197 00:09:17.559 --> 00:09:19.480 gonna have to jump in and save my ass for 198 00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:22.279 calling out the wrong person. But my son has special 199 00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:25.559 needs and my mom relies on handicapped parking spaces so 200 00:09:25.639 --> 00:09:28.919 there's some strong protective feelings that tend to jump out 201 00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:31.519 before the filter turns on. I applaud while Nita for 202 00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:34.840 doing the same. Big hugs to her from me, which 203 00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:37.240 reminds me whatever happened to the Dave Ryan five K 204 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.840 for Special Olympics. My kids and I ran it it 205 00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:42.480 in twenty sixteen and it was such a great memory 206 00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:44.360 for the three of us. Thanks for getting up so 207 00:09:44.559 --> 00:09:47.600 ungodly early to make the mornings bearable for the rest 208 00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:51.519 of us. Love you guys. Cheers from Meg. We stop 209 00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:54.120 doing the Dave Ryan five K for Special Olympics because 210 00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:58.360 of lack of participation. We did it for I don't 211 00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:02.080 even know, probably ten ish years or so, and what 212 00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:07.360 happened was there were so many five k's every fucking 213 00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:11.360 weekend that we would compete with other five ks, So 214 00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:14.120 we had trouble getting people registering. So we even tried 215 00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:16.159 a no k one time where it was like, we 216 00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:18.600 don't run at all, we just drink beer, but you 217 00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:20.559 still had to sign up and you got a shirt, 218 00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:24.279 and that didn't really draw many people. But I remember 219 00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:26.000 one time we're doing the Dave Ryan five k and 220 00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:28.720 we started on one side of the Mississippi at like 221 00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:32.159 Boom Island Park, and there was another It's like a racetrack, 222 00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:35.240 so if you think of like a racetrack, you run 223 00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:37.720 down the Mississippi, cross the bridge stone Arch Bridge, you 224 00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:40.799 run up the Mississippi across another bridge. And there was 225 00:10:40.840 --> 00:10:44.840 another five k the same day using the same course. 226 00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.120 Because there were so many five k's, and we finally said, 227 00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:50.639 we don't know what to do to make this successful. 228 00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:54.399 Instead of getting five hundred entries, we got one hundred 229 00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:57.240 and three entries, so we finally just said let's yeah. 230 00:10:57.279 --> 00:10:59.919 It was like oversaturated the market, which. 231 00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:01.159 Is kind of I'm a shame because you know, it 232 00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:03.000 really was a cool thing and we loved helping out 233 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:07.120 with Special Olympics. This one is all the way from Austin, Minnesota, 234 00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:11.080 the home of Spam. Oh, good morning to my favorite 235 00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:13.360 morning show, says Jennifer. First off, I want to complain 236 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:15.879 about the fast food companies who constantly ask you to 237 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:19.000 round up when making a purchase. I almost always say no, 238 00:11:19.159 --> 00:11:21.639 wondering if they really donate the money to that organization 239 00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:24.039 when you do round up. Question for you guys to 240 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:26.279 round up when you are asked. I was also asked 241 00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:27.799 if I wanted to tip them when I get to 242 00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:30.639 the window. What the hell? When did we start tipping 243 00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:36.360 fast food restaurants? I usually round up when I encounter that. 244 00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:40.320 I don't see it very often, but like at McDonald's, 245 00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:41.600 I think it said, do you want to round up 246 00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:43.159 to give to the Ronald McDonald house? 247 00:11:43.240 --> 00:11:46.399 Right, well, yeah, sure, because there it seems like there's 248 00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.200 a direct connection to Ronald McDonald house. Because there are 249 00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:52.399 some places where they're like, hey, do you want to 250 00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:55.080 round up? And I think this is a giant company. 251 00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:59.000 Like I know, I'm good, but if I'm at like Goodwill, 252 00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:01.720 I always round up at Goodwill because I think, like, okay, 253 00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:04.240 well it's at Goodwill, so clearly this is going to 254 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:05.080 go somewhere important. 255 00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:08.720 Goodwill is a for profit enterprise. You know that, right, 256 00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:11.399 Yes it is. I think it has the image of 257 00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:14.399 a charity. Yeah, but I don't think. I don't. I 258 00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:18.000 don't know for sure, but it is a for profit. Surprise, 259 00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:19.120 it is not a charity. 260 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:22.159 I care about what they do at Goodwill, I don't. 261 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.679 Know, And that's the question. Maybe somebody knows what they do. 262 00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:25.240 Oh. 263 00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:27.279 I just know they hire people with like special needs 264 00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:29.879 and stuff, and I do appreciate that because okay, maybe 265 00:12:29.879 --> 00:12:31.639 that's what it is, old jobs, and so I want 266 00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:33.639 them to have jobs, so I will round up the 267 00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:35.399 twenty seven cents I. 268 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:37.799 Round up at Petco or pet Smart. When it says 269 00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:39.320 you want to round up for homeless pets, are like 270 00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:43.440 you want to donate five bucks? Yes, always do, And 271 00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:46.159 there's certain ones I don't round up on. I don't 272 00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:50.919 round up on a lot of food shelf charities because 273 00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:53.480 I think people abuse them and I don't and I 274 00:12:53.519 --> 00:12:56.360 don't even Maybe I'm a dick for saying that, But 275 00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:58.960 I know people that don't need to go to food 276 00:12:58.960 --> 00:13:02.440 shelves that, but they go anyway because they don't ask questions. 277 00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:05.000 When you, let's say, Bailey j Hess walks into you know, 278 00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:09.519 America Food Bank, Sure Food Bank of America, they don't say, okay, 279 00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:12.279 prove how poor you are. Okay, show me right now, 280 00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:14.639 show me how poor you are. They just let you 281 00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:16.840 go and get your rich crackers and your you know, 282 00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:17.799 flour and whatever. 283 00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:18.399 Yeah. 284 00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:21.919 But I know people, and they're not friends of mine personally, 285 00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:25.399 but it's usually friends of mine's rotten kids or rotten 286 00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:28.639 sisters who spend plenty of money on weed plenty of 287 00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:32.080 money on pizza and tattoos. Yeah, and then they go 288 00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:34.840 to the food bank. And so I don't always donate 289 00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:35.799 to food banks. 290 00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:38.000 Yeah, okay, that makes sense. I actually just read like 291 00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:41.399 an article that says that the food banks in Minneapolis 292 00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:44.399 right now are like struggling to keep their shelves full 293 00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:47.080 because people are like using them so much. 294 00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:50.720 And that makes sense because everything is so expensive, right, 295 00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:52.919 and and it is hard. I mean, like you go 296 00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:55.159 to like, you know, cub to buy you know, food 297 00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:57.600 for the next couple of days, and it's like seventy 298 00:13:57.600 --> 00:14:01.159 eight dollars. Yeah, and you're like, are you kidding? And 299 00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:04.360 so food is very expensive. But I don't know. I 300 00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:05.639 just don't round. 301 00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:05.919 Up for food. 302 00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:08.639 But now that I have calculated all my rounding up, 303 00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:10.600 it seems like yes, I do all the time. 304 00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:13.879 Okay. Second rant, jury duty? You ever been called the 305 00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:15.360 jury duty? I got a letter in the mail this 306 00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:17.080 week to serve at the beginning of the year. It's 307 00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:20.240 for two months. What this is my third time being 308 00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:22.679 called to do this A one. I'm only forty three. 309 00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:25.039 I know it's our civic duty, but seriously, it's soaking 310 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.840 inconvenient when you're a single mom working full time, and 311 00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:31.159 with my last two times doing this, I remember being 312 00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:33.919 such a waste of time, sitting around in a room 313 00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:37.679 for hours all while the case settles, then they send 314 00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:39.360 you on your way. Or last time I got on 315 00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:41.519 the jury, I was the last one, so I sat 316 00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:44.039 through the entire case only to be dismissed in the 317 00:14:44.120 --> 00:14:46.840 end because I was the extra so I never got 318 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:50.720 any say in the case. Uugha what anyway, Love you guys, 319 00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:54.240 thanks for making my morning, making my mornings. And can 320 00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:56.799 I get a staff writer sticker for another yetti cup? Please? 321 00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:00.559 And thank you? All right, yes, Jennifer to send that 322 00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:03.159 to you. Thanks to brief for doing that. Never been 323 00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:04.879 called for jury duty, which surprises me. 324 00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:07.440 Yeah, I wonder if this person has like a like 325 00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:10.000 an A, B or C last name or something that 326 00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:11.240 they're like first on the list. 327 00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:12.960 It's an F last name. 328 00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:14.639 Oh wow, I've I've. 329 00:15:14.480 --> 00:15:18.919 Been called one time and I remember calling in because 330 00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:21.120 they had you call in to see if you were needed, 331 00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:23.879 and I called in like the first two days of 332 00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:26.600 the like week long that I was called for, and 333 00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:28.360 they were like, Nope, we don't need you today. Nope, 334 00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:30.000 we don't need you today. And then I forgot to 335 00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:32.559 call after that, and he never got No one ever 336 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:35.120 sent out a warrant for my arrest, So I got 337 00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:36.919 there somewhere, and it probably. 338 00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:39.480 Is, honestly, like she never showed up for her civic duty. 339 00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:41.519 I think it would be fun, but honestly, I would 340 00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:43.279 live in some kind of like fantasy world, like it's 341 00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:44.320 twelve angry. 342 00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:46.879 Well right, and it is. You get jury duty, and 343 00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:48.840 you sit and you wait, and you sit and you wait, 344 00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:50.639 and then you don't get you know, on the jury 345 00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:52.039 you wasted a bunch of times. 346 00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:54.000 I just want to yell you can't handle the truth. 347 00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:55.840 I don't think they would like that. 348 00:15:57.399 --> 00:15:59.759 Please don't say my name, random subject. I'd love your 349 00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:02.919 thoughts on when is it time to call it quits 350 00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:05.080 with your company. My husband and I are in a 351 00:16:05.240 --> 00:16:09.679 unique situation and both work for the same company. I 352 00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.320 was recently passed up for an opportunity in the spring, 353 00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:14.679 and he was just passed up for a promotion last week. 354 00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:16.919 In my case, they chose somebody with a fraction of 355 00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:19.759 the experience that I have. In his case, a less 356 00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:24.120 experience and less respected people were chosen over him. When 357 00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:26.679 I asked for feedback from our boss, why I wasn't chosen. 358 00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:29.360 All I was told was the person who was chosen 359 00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:32.639 did better than me in the hiring process. Our boss 360 00:16:32.720 --> 00:16:35.000 is new with the company this year, and neither of 361 00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:36.879 us have a relationship with him like we did with 362 00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:38.639 our previous boss, so it's hard to have a real 363 00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:41.679 conversation with him. My question is, at what point do 364 00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:43.759 you move on to another company? It feels like we 365 00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:46.080 have no future here despite giving him eight years of 366 00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:49.000 our lives already. My husband is admittedly a much better 367 00:16:49.080 --> 00:16:52.000 human than I am, and is like by damn near everyone. 368 00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:54.279 It kills me that he wasn't chosen for a promotion 369 00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:57.200 that he deserves so much, and other people agree that 370 00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:00.799 decisions made were not right. It's really hard to not 371 00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:03.559 to play the this isn't fair game, but it just 372 00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:06.000 doesn't feel right in my gut. I know everybody thinks 373 00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:08.839 they're a hard worker, but I genuinely feel like we 374 00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:12.119 both do extra things to help the company out. I 375 00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:15.039 don't see there being any more promotions for a long time, 376 00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:17.880 so putting our heads down and working through it feels pointless. 377 00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:21.039 Love any thoughts that you or other listeners have. The 378 00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:22.920 first thing I thought when I read your email was, 379 00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:26.759 we don't quit our jobs. We quit our boss because 380 00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:29.400 our jobs are our jobs. But our boss is what 381 00:17:29.519 --> 00:17:36.480 makes an environment either tolerable, wonderful, or miserable. And I've 382 00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:39.519 worked for mostly great bosses, but I've also worked for 383 00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:48.240 some miserable bosses. I've never quit a job in radio. Well, 384 00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:50.839 actually that's not true. I never quit because I didn't 385 00:17:50.920 --> 00:17:52.960 like it. I quit because I had a better offer, 386 00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:57.119 or I got fired, or I got transferred, like I've 387 00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:01.400 been transferred a couple of times. But I would say, yeah, 388 00:18:01.559 --> 00:18:04.920 fuck them, they don't deserve you. And sometimes people get 389 00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:09.519 hired because they're younger, or prettier or friendlier, and I 390 00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:13.119 think seper too cheaper too. But I think absolutely people 391 00:18:13.119 --> 00:18:17.279 who are very social and well lubricated socially and easy 392 00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:20.680 to get along with, I think they also get promoted 393 00:18:20.759 --> 00:18:23.559 faster than maybe people who are a little bit more quiet, yeah, 394 00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:28.799 and a little more type B personality, a little more introverted. 395 00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:34.440 Right, No, I agree, I agree. I've never been like well, 396 00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:37.400 I guess so. I had an internship a while ago, 397 00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:39.920 and it was for like my dream job that I 398 00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:42.200 wanted so badly, And at the end of my internship, 399 00:18:42.240 --> 00:18:45.880 they hired two different positions in the same team that 400 00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:48.359 I was working for, and one of them was essentially 401 00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:51.039
