Speaker 1: Minnesota Goodbye is now officially the number fourteenth ranked podcast
Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app. Really no, I made that up,
Speaker 1: But that sounds impressive, doesn't it. If we were number
Speaker 1: fourteen out of all of the podcasts in the world
Speaker 1: on the iHeart radio app, that'd be pretty fucking cool.
Speaker 2: That would be pretty good.
Speaker 1: But we're we're not. I don't know what we're ranked,
Speaker 1: but I know we do very well.
Speaker 2: We do well.
Speaker 3: I just like they have huge podcasts from like celebrities
Speaker 3: on the iHeart app and stuff, so compared to some
Speaker 3: of those, I don't know what we do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we're We're probably not going to do
Speaker 1: better than something like you know, Barstool Sports or.
Speaker 2: Which one last cult ristas it's one of the biggest podcasts.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're not gonna do that well, but we do
Speaker 1: very well, and I really thank you. I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of like a hidden little gem
Speaker 1: of the podcast world because there's probably no other podcast
Speaker 1: quite like the Minnesota Goodbye Ye where three idiots read
Speaker 1: emails from other idiots.
Speaker 2: Probably a ton of podcasts out there, but.
Speaker 1: I think it too, right. Yeah, So anyway, let's dive
Speaker 1: in with another email from another idiot. Now I'm joking.
Speaker 1: It's a joke. It's a joke. Neil writes in from Atlanta, says, Dave,
Speaker 1: you've been talking about things you do in the winter
Speaker 1: to get you through it and made me think about
Speaker 1: what I did before break day was talking about how
Speaker 1: skiing and snowboarding is not really as fun as people
Speaker 1: think it is. The drive, the prizes, etc. Yes, that
Speaker 1: situation doesn't sound like fun, but I will say that
Speaker 1: Skien is the thing that got me through the dark,
Speaker 1: gray Minnesota winters when I lived there. I got my
Speaker 1: kids into skiing. They eventually joined race teams, so we
Speaker 1: were at the hill four to five days a week.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: Instead of sitting in the chalet, I decided to skien.
Speaker 1: It was exactly what I needed to get through the winter.
Speaker 1: I was outside and being active and sometimes Skien in
Speaker 1: the dark, essentially alone is surreal and calming. I would
Speaker 1: agree with that one because I did a twenty four
Speaker 1: hour snowboard marathon at Buck Hill fifteen or so years ago.
Speaker 1: That meant middle of the night, they kept one lift
Speaker 1: going and I snowboarded all night and being alone on
Speaker 1: the slope at two am. Yeah, was kind of calming.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can imagine, especially because you're surrounded by like
Speaker 4: all of the snow, and like the lights are kind of,
Speaker 4: you know, weird, very sort of.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sure it would be lovely.
Speaker 4: I've never skied or snowboarded in my life, but I
Speaker 4: have been outside in snow.
Speaker 1: There's a step right there. You've been outside of the snow.
Speaker 2: That's good at nighttime.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: Neil goes out to say, either way, I was addicted
Speaker 1: and ended up going almost every day and got one
Speaker 1: hundred and four days in in the twenty nineteen twenty
Speaker 1: twenty season. Either way as a lifelong hobby, and it
Speaker 1: helped me with the good old Minnesota seasonal depression. Love
Speaker 1: the show and podcast as always all the way down
Speaker 1: in Atlanta, the atl That's what I mean, Neil is
Speaker 1: it likes the podcast well enough that he listens even
Speaker 1: in another state. Yeah, I will kind of stick to,
Speaker 1: you know, personally, for me, I just maybe it's because
Speaker 1: I was never really very good at skiing and snowboarding,
Speaker 1: and every time I go, i'd kind of look forward
Speaker 1: to four thirty. Do you know what four thirty means?
Speaker 1: Lift lines close? Oh, and I'd be like, Okay, it's
Speaker 1: one o'clock all right, that means a couple of more
Speaker 1: are hot, or because I just didn't really enjoy it
Speaker 1: that much.
Speaker 4: So when I drive when I'm visiting trip in Northfield
Speaker 4: and I'm driving back up north through like Lakeville, I
Speaker 4: pass a giant like ski slope mountainey Hill.
Speaker 1: Where is this again?
Speaker 2: It's so when I'm driving up from Northfield back up
Speaker 2: to here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I'm going through Lakeville, I don't know what's
Speaker 4: passing buck Hill?
Speaker 2: Is that visit buck Hill?
Speaker 1: I don't know?
Speaker 3: Right is Highland?
Speaker 1: You can't see Highland from the freeway really right next
Speaker 1: to the freeway.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So, but it'll be dark and there will be people
Speaker 4: snowboarding and skiing. So does that how can they do
Speaker 4: that if with lights on?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: No, no, but I'm saying if the if the little cart
Speaker 4: like closes at four.
Speaker 1: Thirty, oh, I'm sorry. So on most like breck and
Speaker 1: Ridge or Spirit Mountain, they don't have night skiing, so
Speaker 1: they close. Yeah, they close special, and they close a
Speaker 1: little bit early because they want to get everybody off
Speaker 1: the slopes before it gets dark. So they'll close like
Speaker 1: an hour or so before dark to make sure, everybody's
Speaker 1: off the slopes, but what's the There's a terrible, terrible
Speaker 1: movie where like four people get stuck on a ski
Speaker 1: lift for they close for the season. For the season,
Speaker 1: they think they've gotten everybody off the ski lift. I
Speaker 1: think it's called Frozen, because I get to I think
Speaker 1: it's called Frozen, and it's a terrible movie. But there's
Speaker 1: four people that get stuck on a ski lift and
Speaker 1: there's actually a good explanation about how nobody notices they're
Speaker 1: stuck on the ski lift.
Speaker 2: Huh.
Speaker 1: Then they got to figure out how to get down
Speaker 1: and there are wolves involved. Oh geez, yeah, Frozen.
Speaker 4: Climb up the you climb up it, and then you
Speaker 4: zipline down because.
Speaker 1: You happen to have a zipline equipment in.
Speaker 4: The take one of your jackets, take it off, and then.
Speaker 1: You would never be able to survive in the wild
Speaker 1: Realize this. Who could survive in the wilderness the longest?
Speaker 2: Not you, Jenny.
Speaker 1: I can start a fire with you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I've watched Survivor a lot. Right, Let's
Speaker 1: move on, thank you, Neil. Let's go to Sydney. And
Speaker 1: this is an important email and I want to let
Speaker 1: you know, you know, we might need your help on
Speaker 1: this one. Dave Jenny Bailey. I know it's not something
Speaker 1: you can control, but I'm reaching out to my fellow
Speaker 1: DRS fans to see if anybody else is having issues
Speaker 1: with their Apple car play since the new iHeart app updated.
Speaker 1: I'm listening to the podcast, and about ten minutes into
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Goodbye, my entire car play glitches and turns off.
Speaker 1: I get to disconnect and reconnect to get the podcast
Speaker 1: playing again. It started happening after the iHeart update. But
Speaker 1: maybe they're not connected. Maybe it's just coincidence and I
Speaker 1: have an iPhone six. Maybe it's my signed to upgrade.
Speaker 1: Oh well, at least I have an iPhone on like baying.
Speaker 1: Thanks for passing along my concerns. Curious to know if
Speaker 1: I'm the only one staff writer Sidney H Sidney, nobody
Speaker 1: else has mentioned that, but that doesn't mean it's not happening.
Speaker 1: So if that's happening with you, please let us know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because that is something we would definitely want to know
Speaker 1: about because we want to make the show as easy
Speaker 1: as listen to as possible. Just Seller Rtesin loved hearing
Speaker 1: you guys mention the new Robbie Williams movie on the
Speaker 1: show today. Just want to drop a little psa. The
Speaker 1: movie is in theaters now. Not a ton of showings though,
Speaker 1: because let's be honest, Americans don't seem to fully appreciate
Speaker 1: how ridiculously talented Robbie is. I've been a mega Robbie
Speaker 1: fans since I was thirteen, growing up in Latin America,
Speaker 1: where he is a huge deal. Fun fact, the US
Speaker 1: seems to be the only place on the planet where
Speaker 1: he's not treated like royalty anyway. I saw him Vegas
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen twenty nineteen and even did a meet
Speaker 1: and greet. I was so starstruck I completely blacked out
Speaker 1: the whole interaction, no memory whatsoever. Luckily, Robbie himself saved
Speaker 1: the day by posting the entire interaction on his YouTube
Speaker 1: channel few weeks ago. Watching it back one of the
Speaker 1: best moments of my life. So word of advice, you
Speaker 1: ever have a chance to meet your favorite artist, do it.
Speaker 1: Don't overthink it, don't hesitate, just go for it. You'll
Speaker 1: thank yourself later, even if you totally embarrass yourself like
Speaker 1: I did. Cheers to Robbie and thanks y'all for talking
Speaker 1: about him. Keep doing the great work like you always do.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Just sella Robbie Williams is a international superstar
Speaker 1: but almost an unknown in America, right, and he was
Speaker 1: big in the I mean I don't know when he
Speaker 1: was peaking, but I think probably around the age of
Speaker 1: like ninety eight to two thousand issh. Yeah, and he
Speaker 1: had a single here in America, but it didn't go anywhere.
Speaker 1: We played it briefly, but it didn't go anywhere.
Speaker 4: But he was, yeah, big, big stuff over in the
Speaker 4: UK apparently. So now I want to see that movie
Speaker 4: just because he's a monkey. I think that's interesting.
Speaker 1: Did you watch the Have you seen the trailer? No,
Speaker 1: watch the trailer because it actually I think it takes
Speaker 1: away from the fact that that way, he never ages
Speaker 1: during the movie. And also then you don't sit there
Speaker 1: and stare at him and judge how attractive he because
Speaker 1: he's a monkey, Because he's a monkey the whole time.
Speaker 2: I'm cute monkey though, yeah.
Speaker 1: Next one from Rebecca. Longtime listener, first time writer Dave.
Speaker 1: I've been listening to your show for about twenty five years.
Speaker 1: Thank you. You've been a part of my mornings. Ever
Speaker 1: since I can remember. First off, my fiance works for
Speaker 1: the city of chan Hassen. I've asked him if you've
Speaker 1: seen Dave around. He said nope. I told him, if
Speaker 1: you ever had a water issue at your house, he
Speaker 1: better be good. Better take good care of you. You're welcome. Well,
Speaker 1: thank you. I've seen the show through many transitions, but
Speaker 1: I will say the hardest transition for me was when
Speaker 1: Fallon left. It took me a very long time to
Speaker 1: get used to the new dynamic. Bailey and Vaughan have
Speaker 1: been wonderful additions, and Jenny, you're my absolute favorite.
Speaker 3: Oh, thank you.
Speaker 1: Lastly, I have a question. Like I said earlier, I've
Speaker 1: been listening so long, however, I just started listening to
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Goodbye in the last year. What the fuck
Speaker 1: does dart Lick mean? I have a guest, however, I'm
Speaker 1: kind of curious to hear how you would describe it.
Speaker 1: Thanks for your time, love y'all. Rebecca, who wants to
Speaker 1: answer the question this time and explain how dart Lick
Speaker 1: came into being not I feel like.
Speaker 3: It has to be you because neither of us were
Speaker 3: part of that when it happened.
Speaker 1: Okay, so it was four or five or six years ago. Somehow,
Speaker 1: because we'll talk about anything on the show get Ready
Speaker 1: on the Minnesota Goodbye, yet it somehow came up eating ass,
Speaker 1: and Steve is Steve when he was on the show.
Speaker 1: Steve was a very sexually naive person. Steve was kind
Speaker 1: of the and I love Steve, but I felt bad
Speaker 1: for Christy because I think Steve was one of those
Speaker 1: people who thought the lights always had to be off,
Speaker 1: and you know, you take a shower before and after,
Speaker 1: and I think Steve was that way. I don't know.
Speaker 1: So somehow eating ass came up, but I don't remember
Speaker 1: how it came up. God knows, probably fall and brought
Speaker 1: it up, I don't remember. And Steve said exactly how
Speaker 1: do you eat ass anyway? And I said, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Dart lick, dart lick, dart lick. And we laughed our
Speaker 1: asses off because it was so stupid. And so somehow
Speaker 1: that became one of the signature lines on the Minnesota Goodbye.
Speaker 1: It's like an inside joke, like a code word.
Speaker 3: I would say, almost a catchphrase.
Speaker 1: Yes, And we had shirts made up of the Minnesota
Speaker 1: State fairry year or two ago, and they sold really well,
Speaker 1: dart Lick.
Speaker 2: And goes out there and get the people in the
Speaker 2: know were like, I want one for sure.
Speaker 1: I think the funny thing was if you're wearing it
Speaker 1: out to home depot and you're walking down the hammer
Speaker 1: aisle and somebody comes the other way and they read
Speaker 1: your dart Lick shirt and they get it, they'll be like, oh,
Speaker 1: Minnesota goodbye. Next we they say right off the bat,
Speaker 1: don't say my name. I'm listening to the Minnesota Goodbye.
Speaker 1: Oh did we do this one about swingers? Did we
Speaker 1: talk We talked about swingers. Yes, yeah, okay, and they
Speaker 1: talked about how my husband and I have been to
Speaker 1: multiple house parties, hotel takeover parties. That everything that was
Speaker 1: out okay, thank you. I don't know why I didn't
Speaker 1: delete it, and let's check on this.
Speaker 3: I want it because you wanted her contact to get you.
Speaker 1: No, I know why I didn't delete it. Do you
Speaker 1: want to know why she has an unusual name?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: I looked her up on Facebook, but there are fifteen
Speaker 1: people with the same because I wanted to see what
Speaker 1: a swinger looked like. What do you picture a swinger
Speaker 1: looking like?
Speaker 3: You know? Michelle has been on the show before.
Speaker 1: I can't picture her though. She's attractive.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's attractive because she's come up and said hi
Speaker 3: to us at the State Fair. She lives in Chicago,
Speaker 3: so she's not like local anymore.
Speaker 2: I don't think.
Speaker 3: I think she used to be around here from around here,
Speaker 3: but yeah, she's attractive. I think she has like brown
Speaker 3: Ruddish hair.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I guess I had describer.
Speaker 1: But I think the thing about a swinger is you
Speaker 1: might picture somebody who's like, you know, got big old
Speaker 1: fake boobies and she's got platinum blonde hair, way too
Speaker 1: much makeup, and then her her husband is like a
Speaker 1: Jim Rat overly tan, muscle headed idiot with lines shaved
Speaker 1: in the side of his head. That's what I picture
Speaker 1: as swingers.
Speaker 2: That is not what I would picture.
Speaker 1: Well, that's why I ask you, what do you picture
Speaker 1: when you picture a swingers?
Speaker 3: No, I picture a pretty average, like housewife like looking people.
Speaker 3: I know, not a housewife, because that's not the answer either,
Speaker 3: just kind of like average middle aged people. There's a
Speaker 3: show on Netflix, and I know I'm gonna get it wrong,
Speaker 3: but it's all it's this woman who was obsessed with
Speaker 3: this guy and Eventually they break up. She marries a husband,
Speaker 3: moves to the burbs of New York City, whatever that is,
Speaker 3: and she just misses this sex life. I think it's
Speaker 3: called sex life, honestly, And eventually I remember that one yes,
Speaker 3: she goes to a swinger party with her husband and
Speaker 3: it's all these like kind of wealthy people who are
Speaker 3: all attractive humans, and they are just going at it
Speaker 3: at these different parties, and then her husband gets a
Speaker 3: blowjob and she like kind of loses it because she
Speaker 3: was like really into it, but she's the one who
Speaker 3: like wanted to do all this and sure, so that
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 2: Is where I'm at.
Speaker 3: I don't imaly everyone to be these hot rich Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I imagine a gym teacher and his wife, like any
Speaker 4: gym teachers that you had in high school, and.
Speaker 1: That kind of tracks. I mean, I can kind of
Speaker 1: picture that. I think the thing about swingers is they
Speaker 1: look like your next door neighbor. Yeah, And I think
Speaker 1: that's kind of true because we knew some swingers and
Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell you how we knew them.
Speaker 1: But this is a long time ago, twenty years ago,
Speaker 1: when Allison was a little girl, her we're ninety nine
Speaker 1: percent sure that one of her friend's parents were swingers,
Speaker 1: and they were very average looking, not unattractive, but definitely
Speaker 1: not hot.
Speaker 4: Were they hot in high school? Because maybe that's been
Speaker 4: qualifyigh school. I'm just saying if they were hot in
Speaker 4: high school, that's that's what I would a picture for
Speaker 4: someone who's a swinger.
Speaker 2: If they're hot in high school. But now they're forty five.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were probably thirty ish back then, so they
Speaker 1: were they were attractive, but they were like whoa what?
Speaker 1: All right, moving on to the next one. Happy New
Speaker 1: Year to y'all while you're enjoying your much deserve holiday break.
Speaker 1: I was able to catch up on my podcast at
Speaker 1: the show, so needless to say, I didn't miss you
Speaker 1: too much and catch it up. I wanted to chime
Speaker 1: in on a few things you discussed earlier in December. Jenny,
Speaker 1: I think you the experience you discussed on the Minnesota
Speaker 1: Goodbye that you and Fallon went for your cleanses. I
Speaker 1: think the experience is kalonic cleanse Yes. It's most definitely
Speaker 1: a thing, a once or two a year type of experience,
Speaker 1: but it can help you get back on track. I
Speaker 1: don't know anything about your kalonic cleans.
Speaker 3: We just like a few years ago someone reached out
Speaker 3: and asked us to come in and try it. Okay
Speaker 3: now that yeah, yeah, and so yeah, we had just
Speaker 3: discussed it briefly, I think on an episode last month.
Speaker 3: So yes, it is a Kalana cleanse. I just forgot
Speaker 3: what it was called because we did it once and
Speaker 3: I never I was never going to do it again
Speaker 3: after that.
Speaker 1: Now, there's a famous scene from Nuttie Professor with Eddie
Speaker 1: Murphy where they're all sitting around the table and his
Speaker 1: mom says something like, I am thinking about going down
Speaker 1: and get in my calling Clint's thoroughly and uh, and
Speaker 1: then his dad is something like, how do you think
Speaker 1: you get a color on it? Cleants? Do you think
Speaker 1: you take your asshole by the car wash? And it's
Speaker 1: very funny and uh, maybe you remember that scene, a.
Speaker 3: Scene where they also farting at table.
Speaker 1: That's the only one I know classic Bailey. On the
Speaker 1: December eleventh episode, you talked about liking raising canes over
Speaker 1: Chick fil A. I don't know what the difference is
Speaker 1: between the two, but the only chicken I eat a
Speaker 1: Chick fil A is the spicy chicken sandwich, which is
Speaker 1: good but not the greatest. Ever, when I had Raising Canes,
Speaker 1: it was the blandest and most unsatisfying chicken I ever had.
Speaker 1: It could have been that one experience, but it completely
Speaker 1: turned me off of that one. I also recently had
Speaker 1: Zax Bees, which was also very disappointing. Anyway, I missed
Speaker 1: the chicken tender meal for McDonald's. I wish they would
Speaker 1: bring that back, but it was the It was a
Speaker 1: new meal that popped up pre COVID, and they took
Speaker 1: it away once COVID happened and it never came in.
Speaker 4: Yes, I remember the McDonald's ones. Those are chicken Selax.
Speaker 4: They were so good, but they were the worst thing
Speaker 4: for you on that entire menu. Because I remember looking
Speaker 4: it up. I always thought that Raisin Canes was the
Speaker 4: closest to Chicken Selects because their chicken strips were just
Speaker 4: like so moist and delightful. But the toast that they
Speaker 4: have at Raisin Canes tastes like heaven bread. It is
Speaker 4: so delicious, it really is. Yeah, Oh my god. The
Speaker 4: cane sauce, Yes, the cane sauce is so good. I
Speaker 4: just really like Raisin canes. I've had Chick fil A.
Speaker 4: I just don't care for them. And I had it once,
Speaker 4: maybe like thirteen years ago, and I have not had
Speaker 4: Chick fil A since. Okay, raisin canes. I think it's delicious.
Speaker 4: I think you might have had a bad batch.
Speaker 1: I love all of the Chicken restaurants and I there's
Speaker 1: one at the US Bank Stadium and I can't remember
Speaker 1: what it is, but they have different levels of like regular,
Speaker 1: medium and hot and I got it the other day
Speaker 1: when we were at the Vikings game and I got
Speaker 1: hot and so did Carson. And let me tell you,
Speaker 1: I like hot. It was hot, not like you couldn't
Speaker 1: eat it.
Speaker 2: Hot, sure, but hot. Ooh, So I want chick can
Speaker 2: know you guys.
Speaker 1: Sounds good. Dave mentioned on the Minnesota Goodbye twelve twelve
Speaker 1: episode that Susan had misplaced her wallet while shopping and
Speaker 1: she doesn't always carry a purse, and they go into
Speaker 1: quite an explanation about the promoting Apple air tags, and
Speaker 1: so I appreciate that one, so because I think that's
Speaker 1: a thing. If you misplace your wallet, you can just
Speaker 1: hang a little air tag on it and you know
Speaker 1: exactly where it is, or zip it inside a compartment
Speaker 1: so people don't know where it is. This guy says,
Speaker 1: I've got an AirTag on my keys. I had a
Speaker 1: case for my iPods to hold the tag, and I
Speaker 1: get a tag in my car when I park anywhere
Speaker 1: I can easily find it. They are, of course all
Speaker 1: my personal air tags and personal things. And I just
Speaker 1: thought to help your keep your wife, help her keep
Speaker 1: her cool next time she might misplace her wallet, which
Speaker 1: she does probably twice a year. That seems like a lot,
Speaker 1: it does. Yeah, Chris in Miami, thank you very much
Speaker 1: for that. We appreciate it, and I think that is
Speaker 1: about going to do it. Let me see. Oh there's
Speaker 1: one more. Laura writes in and this is Cookie. We
Speaker 1: know her as Cookie. She's a big supporter of the show.
Speaker 1: She goes on trash clean up on the freeway and
Speaker 1: she comes out to a lot of events and we
Speaker 1: love Cookie. She's super cool. Want to drop a line
Speaker 1: and say welcome back. You were missed, Bailey. I have
Speaker 1: the opportunity to go to Disney and Florida, and during
Speaker 1: the upcoming trip, I was on the fence because it
Speaker 1: seems like a bunch of lines and I don't like
Speaker 1: being that close to people. I don't want to breathe
Speaker 1: in strangers exhalations, but I decided I will go because
Speaker 1: of you, Bailey. Have everybody on the show write a
Speaker 1: few of those intro slogans that Natalie reads, but send
Speaker 1: them to Natalie directly and have it be a surprise
Speaker 1: for everyone and you listen together on the show. Maybe
Speaker 1: it could be a contest. Actually, maybe you've already done
Speaker 1: this bit. I mean, that's a good idea.
Speaker 3: We kind of I feel like we all have like
Speaker 3: sent them to you, Dave, and then you send them
Speaker 3: to Natalie. So a lot of times it is like
Speaker 3: new to most of us what we're gonna hear about ourselves.
Speaker 1: Yeah, write that down. That might be kind of a
Speaker 1: funny idea if we each and anonymously, like separately sent
Speaker 1: our ideas and then we played them back and then
Speaker 1: maybe people voted for the best ones. Yeah yeah. And
Speaker 1: then she also says life advice, have an animal or pet? Yes,
Speaker 1: I love that. Glad to have you all back from
Speaker 1: Cookie Slash Laura. We love you, Laura, and we love.
Speaker 4: You cookie message me. I'll tell you where to go
Speaker 4: at Disney where there's less lines.
Speaker 1: Okay, good to know ye out of time, Minnesota, Goodbye.
