Speaker 1: Here we go with today's Minnesota Goodbye. Today is Wednesday,
Speaker 1: June fourth, twenty twenty five. This is I think my
Speaker 1: thirtieth anniversary, thirty second anniversary at KTWB, And I'm not
Speaker 1: exactly sure, and it's weird that I don't remember, but
Speaker 1: I think when you're starting something, it's kind of like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, you maybe have a baby and forget
Speaker 1: to like, you know, write down their first word, and
Speaker 1: then years later you don't remember their first word right,
Speaker 1: or you know, the first place you ever went with
Speaker 1: your husband for dinner, maybe you don't remember. So I
Speaker 1: don't remember my first day, but I think it was
Speaker 1: June fourth, okay, because I got here on a Tuesday night,
Speaker 1: and I came into the station the next day and
Speaker 1: I watched Steve Cochran had been fired, so it was
Speaker 1: Lee Olswick and then Michael Knight, the late night guy
Speaker 1: filling in. I remember him, Niyah, yeah, And so I
Speaker 1: think I watched them for maybe a day or two,
Speaker 1: no longer than that, I don't think. So my anniversary
Speaker 1: is either the third the fourth seems right, but it
Speaker 1: also could have been the seventh, June seventh, Monday, Okay.
Speaker 2: So are we going to celebrate on the seventh as well.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: I mean, the funny thing is I don't I do care,
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, but I'm not a big celebrate
Speaker 1: myself kind of a person. The twenty fifth I said
Speaker 1: that this was the story in the twenty fifth. Stephen
Speaker 1: Fallon worked here, and I think Jenny you were here too,
Speaker 1: here yah, And I said, you know what they're gonna do.
Speaker 1: And I told Fallon, I said, you know what they're
Speaker 1: gonna do. It's gonna be a round star party. They're
Speaker 1: going to bring me out on stage or roll out
Speaker 1: of fucking sheet cake. And I said, if they think
Speaker 1: that's the way they're going to celebrate my twenty fifth
Speaker 1: anniversary of being on KTWB, I'm going to burn that
Speaker 1: fucking place down, I said so. And Fallon and Steve
Speaker 1: they were so sweet and so kind. They said, yeah, Dave,
Speaker 1: really and not in a dick sort of a way.
Speaker 1: Dave is kind of jokingly hoping for a bigger thing,
Speaker 1: and twenty five years is big, whether it's a marriage
Speaker 1: or whether it's a you know, a job anniversary whatever.
Speaker 1: So they threw me a giant party on the rooftop
Speaker 1: of seven Downtown and we got to invite some people
Speaker 1: who listened to the show and family and friends and neighbors,
Speaker 1: and it was really cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah you invited me and my mom, but we couldn't come,
Speaker 2: Oh did I? Yeah? Oh oh.
Speaker 1: And what was cool is like nearly everyone whoever used
Speaker 1: to work on the show was there. Yep, Lena, Angie, Extreme, Jamie, Miranda,
Speaker 1: Intern John was there.
Speaker 2: Came out here for that. That's cool.
Speaker 1: Lee Volsvick was there. And it was very It was
Speaker 1: so very sweet. And I looked around and I was like, Wow,
Speaker 1: I'm really proud of all the people that I've worked
Speaker 1: with here.
Speaker 3: I have a story from that night that I don't
Speaker 3: think I've ever shared. Oh so, so intern John was there,
Speaker 3: and John and I are really good friends, and so
Speaker 3: we went out. So he was staying in a hotel downtown.
Speaker 3: We went to the hotel for drinks afterwards with me
Speaker 3: and him, Tina, I think his brother, maybe a couple
Speaker 3: other people, and then we went to Deja Vu, the
Speaker 3: strip club. Okay, nobody was there because what it was
Speaker 3: a Thursday night or something and whatever.
Speaker 2: It was like ten pm. It wasn't super late or anything.
Speaker 2: We went to the strip club.
Speaker 3: I think John threw a bunch of money at the
Speaker 3: strippers to like dance in front of me and Tina
Speaker 3: and whatever. Well, I had had like a decent amount
Speaker 3: to drink at that point, so I shouldn't drive whatever.
Speaker 3: And John's like, you can just stay in my hotel room,
Speaker 3: and I was like, I don't know, like maybe I
Speaker 3: could just uber home. He's like, just it's fine. So
Speaker 3: I did end up sleeping in John's hotel room. However,
Speaker 3: he had a pull out couch, so obviously whatever. But
Speaker 3: we both said that we would never tell that story
Speaker 3: because we didn't want anyone to think anything of it.
Speaker 2: Like we were both single.
Speaker 3: It wouldn't have mattered one way or another in terms of, like,
Speaker 3: you know, we weren't disrespecting a relationship, but we didn't
Speaker 3: want the radio people to gossip, like, oh shit, and
Speaker 3: let me.
Speaker 2: Tell you something.
Speaker 3: Love John as a human If he ever listens to this,
Speaker 3: what up? But fuck no, would I ever do anything
Speaker 3: with John. I love him, but he drives me. I
Speaker 3: would never I'm not sexually attracted to him. I would
Speaker 3: never like him in a romantic way. But he's my buddy, Okay,
Speaker 3: fair enough.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't think that you would need to explain that.
Speaker 1: I'd be like, oh, I totally get it. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, I think there was something like that not
Speaker 1: too long ago. And I'm trying to remember the circumstances.
Speaker 1: It was somebody who was drunk or something. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: it was a coworker and it was at Star Party.
Speaker 1: I remember this clearly. It was a few years ago.
Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna say the coworker's name. They don't
Speaker 1: work here anymore. But you know her Jenny, and she's
Speaker 1: very charming and she's around my age, and she got
Speaker 1: kind of drunk at Star Party and she got a
Speaker 1: little bit flirty and she was, you know, we were
Speaker 1: at the Myth and I usually don't go home after
Speaker 1: Star Party because it's like, you know, midnight, and I
Speaker 1: got to work the next morning, so I just stayed
Speaker 1: there at a hotel, a dumpy hotel called the Emerald
Speaker 1: Inn over Instam Maplewood. Maplewood. Yeah, And I said, listen,
Speaker 1: you're drunk. You should not be driving. You can come
Speaker 1: and stay at my hotel room with me. And I said,
Speaker 1: I truly, seriously, I'm sincere about this. When you should
Speaker 1: not be driving, I'll drive you two blocks to the
Speaker 1: dumpy Emerald In and I'll sleep on the couch and
Speaker 1: you'll be fine. And she's like no, And I don't
Speaker 1: know how she got home, but I know she got
Speaker 1: home safely. But there was nothing weird about it. And
Speaker 1: I probably would have told Susan, even though that would
Speaker 1: have been a weird thing to say. Yeah, so so
Speaker 1: and so at work slept in my room at the
Speaker 1: Emerald Inn.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I see.
Speaker 4: I don't think it's weird either, because I've said, like,
Speaker 4: to save money, oh, we should share a hotel room
Speaker 4: with like friends of mine who are married men, and
Speaker 4: they're like, no, that's weird because I'm a married man.
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, I just trying to save money. I
Speaker 4: wasn't trying to do anything. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think sometimes it can be totally innocent like that.
Speaker 1: So you fucked in turn, John, Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I wasn't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely not. Absolutely. I'm going to get back to
Speaker 3: him too, because he will message me.
Speaker 1: Every titled this episode Jenny fucked into the job. Please
Speaker 1: do not do not.
Speaker 3: He always hears when we talk about him on the show,
Speaker 3: because he'll text me He's like, heard you guys talked
Speaker 3: about me today.
Speaker 2: When did it happen. He loves to go back and listen.
Speaker 3: But there was one day, though, I think Dave, you
Speaker 3: had said some really nice things about him, so he
Speaker 3: was curious what you had said. So what I said, Yeah,
Speaker 3: just like one day on air, I don't know, you
Speaker 3: were talking about him and just his accomplishments or something.
Speaker 2: So he was wondering when we had talked about him.
Speaker 3: But there's a good chance that John, someone will tell
Speaker 3: John we talked about him on this podcast, and he'll
Speaker 3: be like, He'll text me, Well, John, if you.
Speaker 1: Do hear about this podcast, you're a dick. Whoa dick?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: God, No, I love intern John. He is one of
Speaker 1: the most grateful people ever. And he he texted me
Speaker 1: the other day, goes, guess what it was exactly eighteen
Speaker 1: years ago today that I started as an intern, or
Speaker 1: maybe twelve eighteen seems like excessive, twelve years ago today,
Speaker 1: something like that, that I started as an intern. And
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's great. I'm so proud of John because
Speaker 1: a lot of interns that you know, move on from
Speaker 1: the station. They don't really get into radio. And John
Speaker 1: is He's got a huge show in Buffalo Low and
Speaker 1: Deep Buffalo Baltimore and DC, and he's won awards and
Speaker 1: he does a stand up tour.
Speaker 3: You know, he also co owns a restaurant bar like
Speaker 3: lounge thing now too.
Speaker 1: Not surprised, Yeah, because he really he does it all.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wanna, I'm probably gonna try to go out and
Speaker 3: visit him and his co host Shelby. I'm pretty good
Speaker 3: friends with you, and I'm going to try to get
Speaker 3: out there and visit them.
Speaker 2: I want to see the new spots.
Speaker 3: But yeah, John, John is a hustler, and he's also, yes,
Speaker 3: like you said, a grateful human. And he's also a
Speaker 3: good friend, like he has reached out to me multiple
Speaker 3: times in the past years when he knows I've gone
Speaker 3: through some shit and just like checks in and stuff.
Speaker 1: So yeah, he's a good guy. Okay, next email, listening
Speaker 1: to the Morning Show podcast and the Daily Bailey about
Speaker 1: skipping work, and I've got a story. The year is
Speaker 1: two thousand. I'm a freshman working at McDonald's. One day,
Speaker 1: my friend called to say their dad had four tickets
Speaker 1: to the King of the Game concert tour with Lincoln
Speaker 1: Park and pod. The show was that night and something
Speaker 1: had come up and he couldn't go, so he says,
Speaker 1: you can have the tickets, and so the first issue.
Speaker 1: I was supposed to work that night. I was young
Speaker 1: and dumb. I did all the thing where you fake
Speaker 1: puke and pour water in the toilet. My poor boss.
Speaker 1: They had to know I was lying, but I had
Speaker 1: successfully called out of work, so they called in and
Speaker 1: I've never heard that one pour water in the toilet.
Speaker 1: We invited two other friends and then had started talking
Speaker 1: to all of our parents to get permission. We lived
Speaker 1: in Rice Lake, Wisconsin at the time. My parents didn't
Speaker 1: want us to drive to the cities alone, and they
Speaker 1: didn't want to drive on such short notice. It was
Speaker 1: a weeknight, so we lied. We told our parents the
Speaker 1: other set of parents were driving, and away we went.
Speaker 1: Reminder is the year two thousand. We printed directions from
Speaker 1: map quest and drove two hours in the dark to
Speaker 1: the big city from small town, Wisconsin. Our parents never
Speaker 1: found out till we told them as adults. Our bosson
Speaker 1: McDonald's totally knew. But she was awesome and funny, and
Speaker 1: I still talked to her this day. Twenty five years later.
Speaker 1: Fast forward, Matt and I have been married eighteen years
Speaker 1: with three boys, and we're talking to our oldest taken
Speaker 1: our oldest to see Lincoln Park at Target Center in August.
Speaker 1: So that's a cool full time circle story. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was a fun memory to share. Have a great day.
Speaker 1: Dart lick, Sarah, I'm going.
Speaker 2: To use that a throwing water in the toilet thing.
Speaker 1: I've never heard of that one before.
Speaker 2: I haven't either, Actually, Nah.
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever called in fake sick in
Speaker 1: my life.
Speaker 2: Oh, I've never called in fake sick.
Speaker 1: Now. Yeah, have you called in fake sick, Jenny?
Speaker 3: Yes to the worst job I ever had, which was
Speaker 3: a bus girl when I was fifteen years old, and
Speaker 3: I had to work at like seven every single Saturday
Speaker 3: and Sunday morning, and I was in I was like
Speaker 3: a freshman in high school. Yeah, like that's early, but
Speaker 3: it was. Honestly, it was a really hard job. I
Speaker 3: was constantly carrying huge bins of dishes. I didn't work
Speaker 3: out back then, like in a way where I was strong,
Speaker 3: so I hated that job. I had to wear the
Speaker 3: diner dress with nylons. My dad worked at that restaurant
Speaker 3: for years, so that's why I worked there. But yeah,
Speaker 3: I definitely called in sick. I think once or twice
Speaker 3: to that job, and my parents knew like I was lying.
Speaker 1: Okay, you see, I've never I wouldn't know how to
Speaker 1: put on the sick voice, like, yeah, I'm not feeling
Speaker 1: very good. Is when I all in sick, I'm deathbed sick,
Speaker 1: and I don't need to fake my voice.
Speaker 4: I'm like, anytime I do call in sick, I always
Speaker 4: think they think I'm lying. They're gonna think I'm lying,
Speaker 4: even if I'm actually ill, Like I almost came in
Speaker 4: to work with a freaking kidney infection, but I was like,
Speaker 4: they're gonna think I'm lying.
Speaker 3: She was like texting me and the day before and
Speaker 3: I literally was like, barely stay home.
Speaker 2: No, I'll fine, you don't need to come in tomorrow.
Speaker 2: We'll be fine.
Speaker 1: The great thing about everybody on the show is you're
Speaker 1: all reliable and you never show up late. And I
Speaker 1: always say, everybody shows up late once in a while.
Speaker 1: Everybody misses their alarm or everybody you know forgets to
Speaker 1: set it or gets a flat tire.
Speaker 2: Or car out of the snow.
Speaker 1: Dig your car. Everybody's late once in a while. Never
Speaker 1: have any problems. However, there have been certain people on
Speaker 1: the show. Jenny and I could name at least one
Speaker 1: that were consistently late. And but we're not gonna say
Speaker 1: any names. Fallon, Oh kidding, Fallen was never late.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she actually was like the lat later part of
Speaker 3: her being on the show. She was always in before
Speaker 3: me and you, Dave, I.
Speaker 1: Think so yeah, yeah. Ranger Jessica writes in we love
Speaker 1: her new Star of the Minnesota Goodbye. What a happy
Speaker 1: ranger heart. I have to hear such a fun discussion
Speaker 1: on trees yesterday. To answer Dave's question, the huge cotton
Speaker 1: woods you see around the metro are relatively not that old.
Speaker 1: The species here usually live to be one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty to two hundred years old, so pretty life short
Speaker 1: lifespan for a tree, Bailey is correct. They grow fast.
Speaker 1: Compared to a burr oak of the same size, the
Speaker 1: oak would probably be closer to three hundred years old.
Speaker 1: Oh and now she gives us some cottonwood facts. Sweet
Speaker 1: cottonwoods are very hollow on the inside. They can hold
Speaker 1: up to five hundred gallons of water at any time.
Speaker 1: The hollowness is one of the reasons they were used
Speaker 1: by Native Americans to carve canoes out of I think
Speaker 1: of what a fucking sure. The natives had to carve
Speaker 1: a canoe because back before they had iron axes, they
Speaker 1: chisel them out with like a bone or something, you know,
Speaker 1: or a rock or some.
Speaker 4: Probably rocks, because then they can't you just make a
Speaker 4: you can turn a rock into like an axe, like
Speaker 4: by you know, chinking away at it.
Speaker 2: I don't know that that's exactly.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's how they made arrowheads. They'd use a
Speaker 1: harder rock. Yeah, yeah, to chink away. And that might
Speaker 1: even be the right term to check away at, you know. Okay,
Speaker 1: I was gonna talk about arrowheads for a minute, but
Speaker 1: we're not going there. The bark of the cottonwood tree
Speaker 1: was used by natives for medicinal purposes like toothaches, and
Speaker 1: it was later found the bark has the same chemical
Speaker 1: punk compound that is used in aspirin. Wow, trees are fun.
Speaker 1: Tree you all later, Ranger Jessica. Is there anything that
Speaker 1: you want to hear about from Ranger Jessica? Is there
Speaker 1: any request you'd like to make about like nature, nature animals?
Speaker 3: We all said this on a podcast that didn't end
Speaker 3: up getting posted because there was like audio fed in
Speaker 3: the background, And now I can't remember because we all
Speaker 3: did have a request and I can't remember.
Speaker 4: I mean, I like learning about birds in general. I
Speaker 4: saw a loon once. It was so cool, and I
Speaker 4: want to see more loons.
Speaker 3: I think I think mine was How like, how were
Speaker 3: mushrooms discovered to be what they are?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I think we talked about this, Like people
Speaker 3: probably just ate them and experimented and either died or
Speaker 3: got high or whatever.
Speaker 2: But that's a curious thing for me.
Speaker 1: Well, you think about anything, like anything that we can
Speaker 1: eat or can't eat. At one time somewhere in back
Speaker 1: in the day, Yeah, somebody said, you know what those
Speaker 1: things bananas? They look kind of tasty. Should we I'm
Speaker 1: not going to try it? Yeah, well you tomatoes. I
Speaker 1: think we didn't eat tomatoes until about one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty years ago. And I'm not making this up because
Speaker 1: we thought they were poison well.
Speaker 4: Because I think they're in the night shade family. I
Speaker 4: believe tomatoes are, and so they're similar to other things
Speaker 4: that you can't eat that are poison Well.
Speaker 1: Think about the idiot who had to eat poison ivy
Speaker 1: for the first time. It's like, hey, Roy, try it oka, or.
Speaker 4: Like rhubarb, you can eat the stems. But the leaves
Speaker 4: are poisonous. Really, I don't know if they'll kill you,
Speaker 4: but they'll make you sick. Okay, but you can eat
Speaker 4: the stems.
Speaker 3: Is it?
Speaker 1: Thanks shout out to our ancestors who tried all of
Speaker 1: this stuff so we would know what was that able.
Speaker 2: Appreciate you.
Speaker 1: Here's an interesting email for the Minnesota goodbye. Hold on,
Speaker 1: I just lost it. Here we go. Kristin writes back
Speaker 1: with another Rando question. Do you have an app on
Speaker 1: your phone you think most other people wouldn't? For me,
Speaker 1: it's Find a Bird, Okay. It's an app that allows
Speaker 1: you to identify types of birds based on their feathers
Speaker 1: and various other aspects. I downloaded it because I go
Speaker 1: on walks all the time with my doggies and I
Speaker 1: pick up feathers. Sometimes I don't know what bird it
Speaker 1: comes from, So that's mine darting and licking at your discretion, Kristin,
Speaker 1: I have one called the Merlin Bird Finder I think
Speaker 1: it's called, and that does the same thing. It'll identify
Speaker 1: if you take a picture of the bird, or if
Speaker 1: you describe the bird and tell the color whatever where
Speaker 1: you found it, and it'll give you the bird that
Speaker 1: you're watching. But my favorite one that nobody else has
Speaker 1: is flight Radar twenty four to seven.
Speaker 2: You talk about that one a lot.
Speaker 1: I think it's called twenty four, So flight Radar twenty
Speaker 1: four maybe is called and it's basically I think it's
Speaker 1: a paid app, but you can buy a get a
Speaker 1: free version and if you look up at an airplane,
Speaker 1: you open up the app, it'll find your location. You'll
Speaker 1: see that airplane in the sky. You tap on it,
Speaker 1: it tells you where it's coming from, how fast, how high,
Speaker 1: and where it's landing, and it's just super thick and cool.
Speaker 1: Flight Radar twenty four to seven.
Speaker 2: I feel like.
Speaker 4: All of mine are pretty useful and not like weird
Speaker 4: at all. I do have one. When I joined the
Speaker 4: church choir, I cannot read music, period and we would
Speaker 4: never like go through all of our parts very much,
Speaker 4: so you'd kind of be on your own, and I'm
Speaker 4: an alto, so it'd be rough. So I downloaded one
Speaker 4: called Music Scanner, and I actually think I had to
Speaker 4: pay like five dollars for it. Okay, but you take
Speaker 4: a picture of the sheet music and you say which
Speaker 4: part you are, and it will just play the part
Speaker 4: that you sing no kidding, which is actually.
Speaker 2: Really helpful when you don't know how to read music. Okay,
Speaker 2: that's kind of nice.
Speaker 1: That's cool, Jenny.
Speaker 2: Well, the question is there an app on our phone
Speaker 2: that we don't really use?
Speaker 1: Is no, you don't think anybody else will.
Speaker 2: I mean, mine's probably not like that unique.
Speaker 3: But there's something called ski tracks and it just records
Speaker 3: what you've done when you're out skiing or snowboarding. And
Speaker 3: I love it because it tells you how many runs
Speaker 3: you've done, your average speed, your altitude, your vertical and
Speaker 3: my favorite is the fact that it shows your max speed.
Speaker 3: And I just went to it to see what my
Speaker 3: max speed was. Ever, guess how fast I went.
Speaker 2: On snowboard on a snowboarding.
Speaker 1: To say, forty miles an hour?
Speaker 2: Oh, you like nailed it really, forty two point six. Wow. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I didn't think I had gotten that fast. I thought
Speaker 2: I was pretty fair.
Speaker 3: I thought it was like thirties at the quickest. But yeah,
Speaker 3: So I use that every single time I go, whether
Speaker 3: it's at Apton or if it's in the Rockies in Colorado.
Speaker 2: I use that.
Speaker 4: On my old phone, I had one called walk to
Speaker 4: More Door where it would track how many miles you
Speaker 4: would walk, and then it would liken it to Sam
Speaker 4: and Frodo's journey in or the Rings.
Speaker 1: It's going to beat you up right now, Bailey.
Speaker 2: Over halfway to Mortar.
Speaker 4: And then I got a new phone and it canceled
Speaker 4: out all of my stuff. So I was like, fuck it,
Speaker 4: I'm not going to try again.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to start over re sign into your account. One. No,
Speaker 2: it was like attached to my phone. Stupid.
Speaker 4: Anyway, I got probably cried that day.
Speaker 2: I did.
Speaker 4: I probably did because I raised so much. They like
Speaker 4: walked thousands of miles and I was over halfway.
Speaker 1: Enough of you know what, Mordor is next one, that's
Speaker 1: your friendly airline employee. We were talking about bringing weed
Speaker 1: through TSA and we said, if you know, let us know.
Speaker 1: So TSA is federal weed is not federally legal, so
Speaker 1: it is illegal to bring weed through TSA. There's your answer. Okay,
Speaker 1: you can try, but if they find it, you could
Speaker 1: still get in trouble, probably depending on the agent that
Speaker 1: you get. Yeah, so if you get a friendly agent
Speaker 1: that does weed or whatever is very liberal, then they'll
Speaker 1: probably be like, yeah, you know what, I didn't see
Speaker 1: anything or if you get somebody who wants to be
Speaker 1: like letter of the law, they'll be like, okay, yep, okay,
Speaker 1: hold hands up, you're under arrest. They have a great day,
Speaker 1: and I will see you at the port. So thank you,
Speaker 1: they said that, being said, I work for the airlines,
Speaker 1: not TSA or security of any time. But that's valuable information.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 2: Ye you probably know more about it than we do.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: Let's see if I get another one here. There are
Speaker 1: a lot that are a little bit long, so I'm
Speaker 1: going to see if I can filter out here for
Speaker 1: a shorter Minnesota Goodbye. Oh here's a good one. I
Speaker 1: like this one. This is kind of funny. I had
Speaker 1: to write in and tell you about how Bailey had
Speaker 1: me in tears when she started talking about aunt killing
Speaker 1: Dave or aunt killing an aunt killing Dave with kill
Speaker 1: Dave's pray.
Speaker 4: Aunt.
Speaker 1: This came up because there were I mean a thousand
Speaker 1: swarming ants on one little spot on my driveway and
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell if they were like looking for something
Speaker 1: sweet or what. So I went and got the ant spray,
Speaker 1: and I felt kind of bad because they're just little
Speaker 1: creatures living their aunt life. Yeah, and I sprayed them
Speaker 1: and I watched them have seizures, literally have seizures. They
Speaker 1: twitched and twitched and then they died. And it was
Speaker 1: kind of because I love little creatures, but I also
Speaker 1: don't want an ant invasion in my house. So Bailey
Speaker 1: made a joke about the ants coming to get me.
Speaker 1: It was this pall part of the show, but it
Speaker 1: hit that little hypothetical laugh button. You know that button
Speaker 1: bury deep inside you only get jokes or a few
Speaker 1: jokes or situations really hit. It creates one of those
Speaker 1: laughs where it's involuntarily because your body is just doing it.
Speaker 1: And then she started talking about Dave season up like
Speaker 1: the ants and cue the tears. Man, Bailey, thanks for
Speaker 1: the laugh.
Speaker 2: You're welcome.
Speaker 4: I pictured it like a honeye shrunk the kids situation
Speaker 4: and one of them big ants coming for you. And
Speaker 4: then you're running and going oh and it's coming, yeah, coming.
Speaker 1: She goes on to say, and I'll wrap this up
Speaker 1: quickly because we're running short of time. Have there been
Speaker 1: seasons of your life where you've laughed more? Do you
Speaker 1: laugh less as you get older? I'm forty years old.
Speaker 1: When I think about it, I noticed most of the
Speaker 1: laughter I day have these days is a socially appropriate
Speaker 1: contrived laugh. But when I was a kid, I would
Speaker 1: laugh the big belly laugh. I think that becomes true
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit. I mean, you guys make me
Speaker 1: belly laugh once in a while, But I can count
Speaker 1: on one hand in the last ten years where I've
Speaker 1: just lost it so hard where I couldn't stop laughing.
Speaker 4: For me, you have to go and find a really
Speaker 4: good improv group. Improv comedy has made me laugh more
Speaker 4: than I've ever laughed in my entire life. And I've
Speaker 4: only been going and watching it for like seven years.
Speaker 4: But before I started, I didn't realize it existed. And
Speaker 4: then after I started, I laugh all the time now
Speaker 4: because I've found like good people who are actually really funny,
Speaker 4: and I'll be like rolling on the floor laughing.
Speaker 2: So got to find it somewhere, Okay.
Speaker 1: And that's going to wrap it up for the Minnesota goodbye.
