WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:02.640
<v Speaker 1>And here we go with a Minnesota goodbye. With a

2
00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:05.879
<v Speaker 1>lot of quality emails today, so think you've heard much.

3
00:00:06.559 --> 00:00:09.599
<v Speaker 1>This one's from Kelly, and she says, I've been listening

4
00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:12.839
<v Speaker 1>back to past shows. June seventh, somebody asked about donating

5
00:00:12.919 --> 00:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>or selling their wedding dress. She says she didn't feel

6
00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:18.000
<v Speaker 1>right about donating it, but didn't know about selling it

7
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:19.519
<v Speaker 1>and wanted to know what to do with it. I

8
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:23.199
<v Speaker 1>recently heard about donating wedding dresses to a program that

9
00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:26.839
<v Speaker 1>makes outfits for babies that are born with their wings.

10
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I've heard of that.

11
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what it's called, so you'd have to

12
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:32.039
<v Speaker 1>look into it. But they make outfits out of the

13
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:34.079
<v Speaker 1>wedding dresses so the parents don't have to worry about

14
00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:37.679
<v Speaker 1>picking out an outfit for their angels, as most of

15
00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:40.200
<v Speaker 1>the time they don't make regular baby clothes small enough

16
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:42.119
<v Speaker 1>for them. Just thought i'd leave that out there for

17
00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:45.840
<v Speaker 1>everybody else wondering what they can do, but still still

18
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:46.920
<v Speaker 1>feel good about it.

19
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:49.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I've heard of that too, and I can't remember

20
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:51.240
<v Speaker 2>where I saw it, and I know I saved it

21
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:54.399
<v Speaker 2>because I thought it was fascinating. But they it's essentially

22
00:00:54.439 --> 00:00:58.759
<v Speaker 2>kind of like a communion not a communion dress. Baptism dress. Yeah, yeah,

23
00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:01.439
<v Speaker 2>that they make out of wedding dress. It's very sweet.

24
00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:03.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think if you have a wedding dress and

25
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:06.760
<v Speaker 1>you're divorced and you have no sentimental value for that dress,

26
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.319
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, what can I do with it?

27
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:09.599
<v Speaker 3>Right?

28
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:12.400
<v Speaker 1>So now there is an idea. Here's another really cool idea.

29
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:14.359
<v Speaker 1>And I like this a lot. Britney writes in and says,

30
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:17.680
<v Speaker 1>anybody wants a real Christmas tree but has limited space

31
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:20.400
<v Speaker 1>or budget or both. I went to a regular nursery

32
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:22.799
<v Speaker 1>this year, not one of those pop up Christmas tree places,

33
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.920
<v Speaker 1>and they showed me spruce tops. It looks exactly like

34
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.760
<v Speaker 1>a small Christmas tree. And get this, it was fourteen

35
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:31.680
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine.

36
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:32.439
<v Speaker 2>Wow, what a deal.

37
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:34.560
<v Speaker 1>It's about five foot tall, maybe two or three feet

38
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:37.159
<v Speaker 1>in diameter. She's a little less full than a regular tree.

39
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:40.439
<v Speaker 1>But I absolutely love this alternative. Just thought I would share.

40
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:42.159
<v Speaker 1>And she's sent in a picture for reference, and it

41
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.239
<v Speaker 1>is the top of a spruce tree. That's cute and

42
00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:48.680
<v Speaker 1>it's great, and it's like, you know, it's small, but

43
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:51.280
<v Speaker 1>some that might be exactly what you want.

44
00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:54.439
<v Speaker 2>Huh, Like a person living yeah, or you live by yourself.

45
00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:56.079
<v Speaker 2>You don't have a family. I have a teeny tiny

46
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:56.680
<v Speaker 2>little tree.

47
00:01:56.879 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Is a real tree or fake tree?

48
00:01:57.879 --> 00:01:59.519
<v Speaker 2>It's a fake tree. I have the one that has

49
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:04.480
<v Speaker 2>the like the gosh needles are fiber optics, so they

50
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:04.719
<v Speaker 2>like it.

51
00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:09.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah, I really like that one. And it's

52
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:12.719
<v Speaker 1>fourteen ninety nine. So and the Christmas tree we bought

53
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:14.479
<v Speaker 1>this year, and we bought it from the Lions Lot

54
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:16.960
<v Speaker 1>so it goes to a good cause. It was one

55
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:19.719
<v Speaker 1>hundred and twenty bucks. Crap, it's about an eight foot

56
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:20.280
<v Speaker 1>tall tree.

57
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:22.560
<v Speaker 2>Wow, I didn't know. I've never had a real tree,

58
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:24.719
<v Speaker 2>so I never know. Actually how much those cost.

59
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:29.479
<v Speaker 1>They've definitely gone up in price. Yeah, they have next one,

60
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.199
<v Speaker 1>it says a hello, favorite morning show. The topic of

61
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:38.319
<v Speaker 1>health results test results getting posted to an online portal

62
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:41.400
<v Speaker 1>rather than coming from your provider has come up twice

63
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:44.000
<v Speaker 1>on your show, so I wanted to quickly share why

64
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:48.439
<v Speaker 1>that is, because it's kind of interesting. Previously, test results

65
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:51.159
<v Speaker 1>needed to be reviewed by your provider before being posted

66
00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:54.479
<v Speaker 1>to your health portal, so your provider could leave comments

67
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:56.800
<v Speaker 1>or call their patients to tell them the results if

68
00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>it was bad news. However, people were getting mad because

69
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:04.280
<v Speaker 1>providers needing to review results obviously adds more time from

70
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:06.479
<v Speaker 1>when you get testing done to when you see the results.

71
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>I cannot remember if legal action was taken by a

72
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:12.280
<v Speaker 1>patient or regulation changed, but it's now a requirement that

73
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:15.680
<v Speaker 1>lab results be posted to health portals as soon as

74
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:18.960
<v Speaker 1>they are reported by the lab, and then providers add

75
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:23.360
<v Speaker 1>in commentary retroactively. Really great if you rapidly find out

76
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:26.080
<v Speaker 1>your results are good, but obviously unfortunate to somebody who

77
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:29.439
<v Speaker 1>founds out they have abnormal results with no explanation from

78
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:33.120
<v Speaker 1>the doctor. I had a result come back abnormal one time.

79
00:03:33.159 --> 00:03:34.759
<v Speaker 1>It turned out it wasn't a big deal, but because

80
00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:37.840
<v Speaker 1>my doctor didn't review before I received my results, I

81
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:41.479
<v Speaker 1>freaked out and thought something was horribly wrong. Luckily for me,

82
00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:44.439
<v Speaker 1>my mom is a doctor, so I called her freaking out,

83
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:47.319
<v Speaker 1>and she said it's nothing bad, and then proceeded to

84
00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:50.800
<v Speaker 1>go on a rant about how annoying this changed regulation

85
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.000
<v Speaker 1>is because it causes stress and upset for people for

86
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:57.919
<v Speaker 1>no reason. Now I know why it happens, Jenny, I

87
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:00.159
<v Speaker 1>am so happy you are okay.

88
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:03.000
<v Speaker 3>Thank you. One thing I missed part of that email

89
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:05.840
<v Speaker 3>because I just walked in. But one thing I'll say

90
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:08.039
<v Speaker 3>that was really helpful for me when I was waiting

91
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:10.560
<v Speaker 3>for test results. Is I just copied everything that was

92
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:12.919
<v Speaker 3>in my chart and put it into chat GPT, and

93
00:04:12.960 --> 00:04:14.599
<v Speaker 3>I said, can you put this in layman's.

94
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Terms for me now?

95
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:18.519
<v Speaker 3>And it broke it down to like the most basic

96
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:22.199
<v Speaker 3>thing to understand what it was. And I could understand

97
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:24.040
<v Speaker 3>it for the most part. But I wanted that backup

98
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:26.439
<v Speaker 3>before I heard from my doctorate because my doctor usually

99
00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:28.360
<v Speaker 3>couldn't get to things till like the end of the

100
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:30.920
<v Speaker 3>day or the next day or whatever. But that might

101
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.759
<v Speaker 3>be helpful for anyone who might be reading a chart

102
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:36.160
<v Speaker 3>and not fully understanding and like, just paste it into

103
00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:38.120
<v Speaker 3>chat GPT and be like, explain this to me in

104
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:39.040
<v Speaker 3>simpler terms.

105
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:42.720
<v Speaker 1>What a great tool. Next, one all the way from

106
00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Arizona says, good morning. I live in Arizona, but I'm

107
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:49.279
<v Speaker 1>originally from Minnesota, where I still have family. My nephew's

108
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:53.800
<v Speaker 1>wife and I both loved the Dave Ryan Show, so

109
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 1>when we had a bit when they had a baby,

110
00:04:56.040 --> 00:04:59.439
<v Speaker 1>I had to get her Dave's book. When she received it,

111
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:02.319
<v Speaker 1>she responded, Dave Ryan book, are you kidding me? I

112
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:04.839
<v Speaker 1>can't wait to read it to her available now on

113
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:09.199
<v Speaker 1>Amazon dot Com. I immediately felt connection with her because

114
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:12.439
<v Speaker 1>of our shared interest in the show. Living in Arizona,

115
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to find somebody who understands my love for it,

116
00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:16.600
<v Speaker 1>so it's wonderful to have somebody to share that with

117
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:20.079
<v Speaker 1>here in Arizona. Whenever I mentioned Dave Jenny Vont Bailey,

118
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:24.439
<v Speaker 1>people look at me and go who followed by, Oh yeah,

119
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:28.600
<v Speaker 1>your BFFs who don't even know you exist? Oh gee, wow,

120
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.920
<v Speaker 1>that's cruel. I know everybody says this, but your show

121
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:34.439
<v Speaker 1>has had a huge impact on my life. I've been

122
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:37.319
<v Speaker 1>a P one listener since Dave started in Minnesota in

123
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:41.079
<v Speaker 1>the nineties. Your show has been a constant source of joy, laughter,

124
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:46.000
<v Speaker 1>and comfort for me. Your humor and genuine connection brighten

125
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>my world and make each morning more bearable. You're always

126
00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:51.560
<v Speaker 1>you always managed to lift my spirits and put a

127
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 1>smile on my face even on tough days. Dave, you

128
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:58.199
<v Speaker 1>are truly amazing. When I grow up, I want to

129
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:01.279
<v Speaker 1>be like Jenny, even though I'm much older than she is.

130
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 1>You are an incredibly impressive woman, Bailey. Your positive spirit

131
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:10.439
<v Speaker 1>and energy are truly inspirational. Vaunt. I have children your

132
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:12.360
<v Speaker 1>age and I hope they can be as successful as

133
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:15.399
<v Speaker 1>you one day. I apologize for the link of this message.

134
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>It's challenging to be brief when there's so much to say.

135
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:20.839
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for everything you do, Nikki that I love

136
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:23.040
<v Speaker 1>that so much, And I will only say that it

137
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:26.839
<v Speaker 1>goes both ways because I feel such a connection with

138
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:29.920
<v Speaker 1>people who feel connected to this show that it really

139
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:33.439
<v Speaker 1>is not a one way street. And when your friend says, oh, yeah,

140
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:36.279
<v Speaker 1>you're BFFs who don't even know you exist, we are

141
00:06:37.079 --> 00:06:40.439
<v Speaker 1>critically aware that you exist. Even if we've never met

142
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:42.639
<v Speaker 1>or spoken to you. We are critically aware.

143
00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:46.279
<v Speaker 2>I think about you before I go to bed. Yeah,

144
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:49.240
<v Speaker 2>critically aware, and I go she's listening.

145
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:53.759
<v Speaker 1>So no, seriously, I think, you know. Sometimes I think

146
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:56.759
<v Speaker 1>it's why I love doing radio so much, because I

147
00:06:56.759 --> 00:06:59.879
<v Speaker 1>feel like I belong. I feel like I have a purpose,

148
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:03.000
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. And so thank you because

149
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:09.560
<v Speaker 1>you are critically important to us. Next one, this came up,

150
00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:11.560
<v Speaker 1>and I just wanted to kind of acknowledge this one.

151
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:15.319
<v Speaker 1>Vaunt about the right turn on Red was a pretty

152
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>controversial thing on Reddit, and they sent me a link

153
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and we talked about this at length on Monday, where

154
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:28.240
<v Speaker 1>says Vont KWB said something so dumb. I cannot even

155
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:30.920
<v Speaker 1>listen to their show anymore. I don't turn right on

156
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:32.639
<v Speaker 1>red get over it be late. You should have been

157
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:35.120
<v Speaker 1>in front of me. Then it's just one listener, but

158
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:37.519
<v Speaker 1>I can't listen to his voice after hearing that. Thanks

159
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:39.199
<v Speaker 1>for coming to my Ted Talk. I'll be sticking to

160
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:42.399
<v Speaker 1>ninety three X in ninety four point five exclusively. Now,

161
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Vont got a ton of reaction on Reddit, and a

162
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:49.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of people were really annoyed with him, But we

163
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:50.920
<v Speaker 1>just thought it was kind of funny.

164
00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:53.399
<v Speaker 2>That's the whole point of the bit on, not the bit,

165
00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:56.160
<v Speaker 2>but hit that segment. He's supposed to stir the pot,

166
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:57.839
<v Speaker 2>and so he clearly did.

167
00:07:58.439 --> 00:07:59.800
<v Speaker 1>He did, and I think that he was kind of

168
00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:04.199
<v Speaker 1>poking the bear. I don't know that he really believes that,

169
00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:07.079
<v Speaker 1>but Bunt is good at saying something that'll just pish off.

170
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Kenda writes in Southern Minnesota, p one listener, Hello, my peeps,

171
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.199
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to send an email to discuss some Christmas

172
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:16.879
<v Speaker 1>ideas with you guys. First, let's discuss favorite Christmas songs

173
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:19.800
<v Speaker 1>and least favorite Christmas songs. My favorite would be Carol

174
00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:25.959
<v Speaker 1>of the Bells, and least favorite would be Wham's Last Christmas.

175
00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I'd be interested to hear all of yours. I know

176
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Dave is going to say sleigh Ride for his favorite,

177
00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:33.759
<v Speaker 1>which he is overdue for to play and on the

178
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Morning show before Christmas break, So yeah, sleigh Ride. I'd

179
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 1>say my least favorite is hmmm, probably rocking around the

180
00:08:44.919 --> 00:08:47.159
<v Speaker 1>Christmas Tree. I don't know if I've just heard it

181
00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:49.240
<v Speaker 1>enough times, but if I thought about it longer, I'd

182
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:50.480
<v Speaker 1>probably come up with something worse.

183
00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:54.080
<v Speaker 2>I like the Scrooge song from them up at Christmas Carol,

184
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.679
<v Speaker 2>and I also like Merry Christmas Darling by the Carpenters.

185
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:57.679
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's pretty yeah.

186
00:08:57.799 --> 00:09:00.559
<v Speaker 2>But my least favorite Christmas songs, and this is where

187
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:04.399
<v Speaker 2>I feel the most vehemently, is simply having a wonderful

188
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:07.399
<v Speaker 2>Christmas time. Oh I hate that song and War is Over?

189
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:10.759
<v Speaker 2>I hate that song, okay, And so two Beatles have

190
00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:12.440
<v Speaker 2>the worst Christmas.

191
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:14.879
<v Speaker 1>Song Good Bad Choices Ah, so terrible.

192
00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:17.279
<v Speaker 2>I hate both those songs instant change the channel the

193
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:18.039
<v Speaker 2>second they come on.

194
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.600
<v Speaker 3>Jenny, I don't know that I really dislike any songs.

195
00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:23.960
<v Speaker 3>I like ones that have words, and no more so

196
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:27.080
<v Speaker 3>than they're just instrumental but I do. However, I also

197
00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:29.799
<v Speaker 3>like trans Hiberian Orchestra, so I feel like I'm up

198
00:09:29.840 --> 00:09:33.360
<v Speaker 3>in the air. But favorite songs I love. Christina Aguilera's

199
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:37.200
<v Speaker 3>like entire Christmas album Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday or no,

200
00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:38.200
<v Speaker 3>what's is that?

201
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:40.600
<v Speaker 2>Mary christinc One? Yeah, yeah, Marry Christmas, Habby Holidays?

202
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:43.000
<v Speaker 3>Hey blank? First Christmas are probably my favorite ones?

203
00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:46.240
<v Speaker 1>So good? Oh the in sync one right happy? Yeah,

204
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:49.840
<v Speaker 1>we haven't played that one yet either. Second if from

205
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:52.759
<v Speaker 1>Kendra is another idea, if it's not too personal, could

206
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:55.840
<v Speaker 1>you please make a reel of you all sharing your

207
00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:58.399
<v Speaker 1>Christmas trees and your favorite ornaments and what some of

208
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.639
<v Speaker 1>them mean or if they have special meaning behind them.

209
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:04.519
<v Speaker 1>I feel like Bailey would have something crazy on her

210
00:10:04.600 --> 00:10:07.879
<v Speaker 1>Christmas tree. Well I don't really have.

211
00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:10.799
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I have a tree, but it's small, and

212
00:10:10.840 --> 00:10:12.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't really have like ornaments to put on it.

213
00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:15.440
<v Speaker 2>My mom saved an ornament every year for me and

214
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:17.960
<v Speaker 2>my sister growing up, and she's like, Okay, now you'll

215
00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:20.360
<v Speaker 2>have ornaments when you get your very own tree and

216
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:22.399
<v Speaker 2>your very own house with your family or whatever. And

217
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.639
<v Speaker 2>I don't have a family, and I don't have a house,

218
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:26.679
<v Speaker 2>so I don't have a large tree, so I have

219
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:29.360
<v Speaker 2>a big box of ornaments that don't fit on my

220
00:10:29.399 --> 00:10:32.120
<v Speaker 2>tidy tree. So I feel like I am gonna disappoint

221
00:10:32.159 --> 00:10:34.559
<v Speaker 2>you there. But I do have a ceramic cat that

222
00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:36.480
<v Speaker 2>has a Christmas tree that's growing out of its head,

223
00:10:36.799 --> 00:10:38.559
<v Speaker 2>and I just thought that was funny, so I bought it.

224
00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:41.279
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's cute. Yeahah, anything Jenny come to mind.

225
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:43.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that I have anything sentimental, but when

226
00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:45.840
<v Speaker 3>we put up our tree this year, Andrew and I

227
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:48.320
<v Speaker 3>both were like, well, which one's your favorite ornament? And

228
00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:50.360
<v Speaker 3>it was just this one that's beautiful that my mom

229
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:53.639
<v Speaker 3>got me. There's not really, okay, anything like super crazy

230
00:10:53.679 --> 00:10:56.399
<v Speaker 3>story behind it, but it's just a really pretty ornament

231
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:59.200
<v Speaker 3>that I think stands out of against all the other ones.

232
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:04.480
<v Speaker 1>We've got kids, so we've got so many handmade little

233
00:11:04.639 --> 00:11:07.279
<v Speaker 1>kid ornaments with their pictures in them, and we've kept

234
00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>every single one of them. But my favorite is one

235
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:13.240
<v Speaker 1>I've had for thirty years, and it's a little old

236
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:16.879
<v Speaker 1>fashioned radio with a cat rubbing up against it affectionately,

237
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:20.279
<v Speaker 1>and you push them it plugs into a lamp like

238
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:25.440
<v Speaker 1>a light bulb socket, and it says something like it's

239
00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:28.679
<v Speaker 1>a radio announcer and it says something like this, just

240
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:33.039
<v Speaker 1>in Santa has been spotted overhead listen for Reindeer on

241
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:35.679
<v Speaker 1>the roof and I just love it and it lights

242
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:38.200
<v Speaker 1>up and I can't get it to work this year

243
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:40.559
<v Speaker 1>because it won't fit into the light socket because I

244
00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:43.240
<v Speaker 1>think light sockets have changed. I don't know, but yeah,

245
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:45.039
<v Speaker 1>maybe we can make a reel of all of our

246
00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:48.399
<v Speaker 1>Somebody remember that. Write it down, Jenny, write it down.

247
00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:50.399
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for bringing me joy every single day. And

248
00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:54.200
<v Speaker 1>Merry Christmas to all, and have a good holiday break.

249
00:11:54.720 --> 00:12:01.799
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, Kendra. Next one, uh oh, Sydney's been on Reddit.

250
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:03.320
<v Speaker 1>Sorry Jenny, that's how it starts.

251
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:03.840
<v Speaker 3>Let's hear it.

252
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:06.039
<v Speaker 1>Good morning. This morning, I had a chance to scroll

253
00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:08.399
<v Speaker 1>through Reddit. Found a question I thought you might find interesting.

254
00:12:08.720 --> 00:12:10.799
<v Speaker 1>I had so much fun reading everybody's answers, came up

255
00:12:10.840 --> 00:12:13.039
<v Speaker 1>with a few of my own. Curious, if you have

256
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:15.360
<v Speaker 1>any thoughts? What were you denied as a child that

257
00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:18.559
<v Speaker 1>you now indulge in as an adult? A few of

258
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:23.039
<v Speaker 1>mine perfume, scented lotions, and body spray. My mom was

259
00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:25.559
<v Speaker 1>always sensitive to smell, so none of these were allowed.

260
00:12:25.559 --> 00:12:28.320
<v Speaker 1>As a team. I vividly remember my mom searching through

261
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:32.039
<v Speaker 1>my room and car as if she was looking for drugs,

262
00:12:32.440 --> 00:12:34.840
<v Speaker 1>when she was really trying to find my contraband body

263
00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:38.559
<v Speaker 1>sprays and highly scented lotions. Now, as an adult, I

264
00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:41.399
<v Speaker 1>have an entire cupboard full of them, partly to use

265
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:45.840
<v Speaker 1>and partly just because I can. Anybody have anything that

266
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:48.080
<v Speaker 1>you were not allowed to have when you were a.

267
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:52.159
<v Speaker 2>Kid, snacks in general, snacks. I we lived in an

268
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:55.240
<v Speaker 2>ingredient household, and so if we were hungry, my mom

269
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:57.519
<v Speaker 2>would be like, you can make yourself a salad, and

270
00:12:57.559 --> 00:12:59.279
<v Speaker 2>we like, no, I don't want a salad, so we

271
00:12:59.399 --> 00:13:02.919
<v Speaker 2>have like carrots. We would have like lettuce, and then

272
00:13:02.919 --> 00:13:05.679
<v Speaker 2>maybe things to make, like if we wanted to make cookies,

273
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:08.159
<v Speaker 2>but then you'd have to like make the cookies. So

274
00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:10.879
<v Speaker 2>everything was an ingredient. Nothing was a snack. So now

275
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:12.120
<v Speaker 2>I can have snacks.

276
00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:14.399
<v Speaker 1>I can't really think of anything. I think any yeah,

277
00:13:14.559 --> 00:13:16.799
<v Speaker 1>good snacks, because we didn't have good snacks as a kid.

278
00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:19.639
<v Speaker 1>It was either I remember one time for a snack,

279
00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:22.600
<v Speaker 1>and this is not uncommon, you would sprinkle some salt

280
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:25.279
<v Speaker 1>into the left palm of your hand and then lick

281
00:13:25.320 --> 00:13:27.799
<v Speaker 1>a toothpick with the right one, and then dip it

282
00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:30.799
<v Speaker 1>into the salt, and that was a snack. And I'm

283
00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:31.639
<v Speaker 1>not making this up.

284
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:32.759
<v Speaker 2>That's so depressing.

285
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:37.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this during the Depression. It was during the Great Depression.

286
00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:39.080
<v Speaker 1>We were actually on the Oregon Trail.

287
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:39.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh.

288
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:42.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and yeah, and then my brother died of cholera colera.

289
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:44.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well at least it wasn't dysentery.

290
00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:44.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

291
00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:46.200
<v Speaker 1>And we had to shoot oxen.

292
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you had to shoot them.

293
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Where was I going, Jenny? Did you have anything that

294
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:52.159
<v Speaker 1>you were denied as a kid that now you indulge

295
00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:52.840
<v Speaker 1>in because you can.

296
00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:55.480
<v Speaker 3>I think it's just the matter of like everything about

297
00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:58.840
<v Speaker 3>my daily life, Like I stay up until I want to,

298
00:13:59.159 --> 00:14:03.279
<v Speaker 3>I'm a truck bedtime, I eat whenever I want. Like

299
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:05.080
<v Speaker 3>it was always like we eat at this time and

300
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:08.559
<v Speaker 3>this time and this time with my mom and I Also,

301
00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:11.679
<v Speaker 3>I would say probably watching TV in bed, because we

302
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:14.080
<v Speaker 3>do have a TV in our bedroom that we used

303
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:17.000
<v Speaker 3>to like never watch, but now we binge watch Survivor.

304
00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:20.759
<v Speaker 3>So sometimes we'll watch an episode before bed. But that's

305
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:21.159
<v Speaker 3>about it.

306
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:24.480
<v Speaker 1>She goes on to say another one we indulge in

307
00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:26.519
<v Speaker 1>now is drinks, any kind of drinks. We were a

308
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:29.480
<v Speaker 1>strict milk and water household, and I can't drink milk,

309
00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:32.919
<v Speaker 1>so it was just water. I still love me some water,

310
00:14:32.960 --> 00:14:35.320
<v Speaker 1>but I also indulge in flavored water packets of a

311
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:39.080
<v Speaker 1>wide variety, coffee, hot chocolate, juices, coke, teaese, lemonade, and

312
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:41.720
<v Speaker 1>the list goes on, wondering if you guys have any

313
00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:43.480
<v Speaker 1>thoughts what were you denied as a child that you

314
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:49.840
<v Speaker 1>indulge in as an adult? All right, from Sydney, G Sydney.

315
00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:50.600
<v Speaker 1>That was a fun one.

316
00:14:50.639 --> 00:14:51.279
<v Speaker 2>That's a good question.

317
00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, if you got any other answers, then let

318
00:14:54.159 --> 00:15:00.320
<v Speaker 1>us know. Hit the lead on that one and let see.

319
00:15:00.360 --> 00:15:02.600
<v Speaker 1>We do have a rant from Juanita, but I want

320
00:15:02.600 --> 00:15:05.120
<v Speaker 1>to check my time to see how we're doing, and

321
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:06.799
<v Speaker 1>we are about at fifteen minutes, so I'm going to

322
00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:11.080
<v Speaker 1>save Juanita's rant for tomorrow because that's always worth waiting for. Juanita,

323

<v Speaker 1>you are a joy. Thank you so much for doing that,

324
00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:17.960
<v Speaker 1>and I think that is going to do it for now.
