Speaker 1: Al alrighty, let's get started with today's Minnesota Goodbye. Thank
Speaker 1: you for listening. If you've never tuned in, tuned in, hey,
Speaker 1: you nobody tunes in anymore, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's like you don't tune into a podcast in. And
Speaker 1: then people used to say, don't touch that dial. You
Speaker 1: remember that phrase, don't touch that dial, Yeah, which meant
Speaker 1: don't touch that radio dial. But it used to be
Speaker 1: a literal dial, but now it's anything is spinny thing. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And now everything's numerical or digital or whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we still use the pictures of the old
Speaker 2: stuff to like explain that.
Speaker 1: No, it's true. I like that. Eh, let's see what
Speaker 1: we got ha Minnesota goodbye, Mike writes in Hello my
Speaker 1: radio family. Love you guys. You're like my family perspective.
Speaker 1: Maybe this because I'm a little bit older than your
Speaker 1: target demo. If I go to a concert, if you
Speaker 1: are not on the stage performing, shut it. I did
Speaker 1: not pay money one has to pay to go to
Speaker 1: a concert to hear you scream sing the songs. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's great to be so intense and dedicated fans of
Speaker 1: your favorite artists. Great, please continue to do so. If
Speaker 1: you would don't have to. This is a request please
Speaker 1: listen to the artist sing. You don't have to prove
Speaker 1: your fan worthiness by competing with said artists during the performance.
Speaker 1: They are doing as always, Thank you my wonderfuls for
Speaker 1: doing what you do, and bless so many just for
Speaker 1: being you. No dart lick here, all right, that is Mike,
Speaker 1: I would probably kind of agree with that one. I
Speaker 1: would say probably the worst, or probably the Taylor Swift
Speaker 1: concert people who have to show their allegiance to their
Speaker 1: cult leader. Because Taylor Swift fans are kind of like
Speaker 1: a cult. They'll buy thousand dollars seats, they'll buy one
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, this, thousand dollars this, whatever, They'll buy their
Speaker 1: friendship bracelets, and then they scream sing the songs I
Speaker 1: knew you were travel away and you walk yeah, to
Speaker 1: show their loyalty to the cult leader.
Speaker 3: Sure, or do you think that they want to a
Speaker 3: concert to sing the songs, because that's what you do
Speaker 3: at a concert, You sing the song that artist.
Speaker 1: I mean or that yeah, one of the other death Man.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I don't agree with this at all. I
Speaker 3: think everyone should be allowed to sing songs at a concert.
Speaker 3: That's the point of a concert.
Speaker 2: There is it?
Speaker 1: Is it?
Speaker 3: It is the point to go to a concert and
Speaker 3: sing along with your favorite songs. You're studying money to
Speaker 3: go see an artist, and right now ticket prices are obnoxious.
Speaker 1: I would disagree with you, but I see your point
Speaker 1: that I don't think that the point of going to
Speaker 1: a concert is to scream sing along. A concert is
Speaker 1: to watch your favorite artists perform. And if I am
Speaker 1: sitting there, let's say I'm going to the Taylor Swift
Speaker 1: concert and I can't wait until she does. I know you,
Speaker 1: and then you get up. You got a beer in
Speaker 1: one hand, you got your arm around your stupid, loud,
Speaker 1: drunken girlfriend, and you're both singing ANI and you're scream
Speaker 1: singing it. I can't hear Taylor Swift. You are ruining
Speaker 1: my enjoyment of the show.
Speaker 3: I feel like everyone screams singing, though at that point
Speaker 3: it's not one person over the other you're hearing. You're
Speaker 3: just hearing an entire chorus of people in the crowd.
Speaker 1: Who's right, Bailey, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I think there are times to scream sing at a concert,
Speaker 2: but I wouldn't say that is the entire concert.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's say you're gonna go see who's a more
Speaker 1: mellow kind of an artist. Maybe you're gonna go see
Speaker 1: John Mayer. I don't know you see John May. Can
Speaker 1: you go see John Mayer and he's doing an acoustic set?
Speaker 1: Are you singing really loud along with John Mayer? Because
Speaker 1: you're there to scream sing? No, I want to hear
Speaker 1: John Mayer sing. I don't want to hear you. And
Speaker 1: that's why you're not scream singing.
Speaker 2: I will scream sing when they take their microphone and
Speaker 2: they pointed at the audience, well, because clearly they want
Speaker 2: us to sing there, or like at a build up
Speaker 2: of like here's where the beat drops, I will yell
Speaker 2: out the like beat drop line. Potentially, I think.
Speaker 1: That I think you and I will differ in a
Speaker 1: basic fundamental of concert going. I think a concert is
Speaker 1: to watch and listen to your artists perform, like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, they're doing this just at this one time
Speaker 1: for this audience. Do you go to your niece's band
Speaker 1: concert and there she is lead clarinet doing Frosty the Snowman.
Speaker 1: Are you standing up going Frosty?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Because you are there to watch the band play no
Speaker 1: the end.
Speaker 3: Because I'm busy scrolling on my phone being like, what
Speaker 3: is this going to be?
Speaker 1: All right? What do you think? That's a really interesting debate.
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with really either side. I think if
Speaker 1: you're at a fun loud concert, sure then screams sing along,
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I kind of want to
Speaker 1: hear the artist. You know, they're the ones who sing
Speaker 1: the song. Yeah, okay, Sean wrights In says hello. I
Speaker 1: was listening to an older episode of The Minnesota Goodbye
Speaker 1: where Dave talked shit about the cherry and the spoon
Speaker 1: the Walker, and it reminded me of a funny story.
Speaker 1: I spent my first year of college at the Milwaukee
Speaker 1: Institute of Art and Design ten years ago. In a
Speaker 1: freshman illustration class. We had a fairly open ended assignment
Speaker 1: with a two week deadline. When the assignments are due,
Speaker 1: the class comes together to critique everyone's art. Most people
Speaker 1: had a beautiful drawing or painting after the two weeks,
Speaker 1: but one guy brought in four jars of bodily fluids
Speaker 1: and trimmings her toenails hair. One jar even had a
Speaker 1: little bit of jiz on the bottom. The heck the
Speaker 1: entire now it says what, oh okay, it's a guy. Okay,
Speaker 1: not a guy. It's a guy, not a woman. The
Speaker 1: entire class was pissed at his audacity for bringing in
Speaker 1: bullshit art after the rest of us worked our asses off.
Speaker 1: I just wanted Dave to know that even in institutions
Speaker 1: that trained the artist, that trained the artist to make
Speaker 1: art for places like the Walker, we see right through
Speaker 1: the lazy shit and really value art that takes talent.
Speaker 1: Happy holidays from Sean.
Speaker 3: Well, did he sorry at the beginning? Did he say
Speaker 3: what institution?
Speaker 1: This was at Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design and
Speaker 1: it was a freshman illustration class.
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, like, was is it one of
Speaker 3: those things where you were required to take a class
Speaker 3: to give you like libed requirements or whatever it is.
Speaker 3: But it sounds like he probably had to be taking
Speaker 3: that class for his major, so he shouldn't care. The
Speaker 3: person who brought the jiz thing, Yeah, the jizz.
Speaker 1: Thing, Yeah, wow, really interesting. I'm glad that people will
Speaker 1: call people out on there being a limit to what
Speaker 1: that looks like that is spam. Here is Charisse, she says,
Speaker 1: Dave Bailey vant and Jenny is Charisse, I get a
Speaker 1: question for Dave and Jenny. I got COVID for the
Speaker 1: second time in August. Before I caught it again, I
Speaker 1: was at the gym four to five times a week,
Speaker 1: but afterward I never went back in. So remember she
Speaker 1: was in the gym four or five times a week.
Speaker 1: Now I'm ready to resume my workouts again. I was
Speaker 1: wondering if you guys have any tips for I can
Speaker 1: how I can stay motivated so I don't quit again
Speaker 1: after a week. Also, nothing to do with the workout question,
Speaker 1: but you guys were talking about well, let's cover one
Speaker 1: question at a time. So do you have any tips
Speaker 1: Jenny for staying motivated go to.
Speaker 2: The g H.
Speaker 3: Yes, I think that one of the biggest ones is
Speaker 3: just getting your ass out the door and into the gym,
Speaker 3: and then usually you can get yourself to work out.
Speaker 3: But the other one that I'm learning because I'm so
Speaker 3: sick of doing the same weight training and string training
Speaker 3: like recipe that I do. I just like go in
Speaker 3: and start doing something and then I figured it out
Speaker 3: from there. Like yesterday I did twenty minutes on the
Speaker 3: stair master, which I don't normally do. I'll do like
Speaker 3: a warm up or something, and for like five minutes
Speaker 3: and then you can I stop and ask.
Speaker 1: You a question, Yeah, what rate of stairs per minute
Speaker 1: do you usually put it on?
Speaker 3: I don't know what rate I do because you always
Speaker 3: ask me that. I just do levels, and every Staremaster
Speaker 3: is different, but.
Speaker 1: Usually they have a setting that'll tell you stairs steps
Speaker 1: per minute. Because if I played with the one at SNAP,
Speaker 1: it'll tell me the level. Level five is usually what
Speaker 1: I go on, and that's about forty eight steps per minute,
Speaker 1: but I get to dick around with it before it
Speaker 1: tells me the steps per minute.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't pay attention to check it out next time.
Speaker 1: I want to see whether I'm faster or slower than
Speaker 1: you usually at.
Speaker 3: Like for a warm up pace, I'm at like a
Speaker 3: ten on the StairMaster at the gym, but then like
Speaker 3: the StairMaster classes I go to at flight, I'm at
Speaker 3: like a six or seven and more so as like
Speaker 3: the warm up pace, So it just depends. But I
Speaker 3: would say go in and like, don't just do something
Speaker 3: to get started and then go from there, because sometimes
Speaker 3: when you have an idea in your head of like
Speaker 3: this workout, you're like God, that sounds miserable. Well, then
Speaker 3: don't do that. Just like do something to get started
Speaker 3: and keep moving after that and figure out what you
Speaker 3: want to do.
Speaker 1: I think part of it all. So I think that
Speaker 1: there are things at the gym that I really actually
Speaker 1: kind of enjoy, Like the stair master. I don't really
Speaker 1: love it, but it's easy, and I can listen to
Speaker 1: a podcast and I will get on the StairMaster and
Speaker 1: I'll listen to a podcast and exercise equipment like that.
Speaker 1: I don't mind it. It's the lifting and the goblet
Speaker 1: squads and the crazy all of that shit. I hate it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but don't You can't just do cardio, Sure you can.
Speaker 1: You can absolutely just do cardio, but I try to
Speaker 1: mix it up. You should feel my thighs now, not literally,
Speaker 1: because I'm not going to ask you to feel my
Speaker 1: thighs because you're creepy. But my thighs are like.
Speaker 3: That, we're taking you off on a single offer of
Speaker 3: feeling your muscles. So why would I suddenly want to
Speaker 3: feel your thighs.
Speaker 1: My thighs are like rocks, they really are. Listen to this,
Speaker 1: I'll tap on it. Yeah that's my thigh.
Speaker 3: Wow, your thigh That was literally the bore that you
Speaker 3: just tapped your pen onto, you little deceiving bitch, you.
Speaker 1: Little deceiving crystal rites in Hello radio friends, I've listened
Speaker 1: to Fridays Minnesota Goodbye. I have the reach Outfitters deck
Speaker 1: of Cards. Now, remember we talked about this. This was cool.
Speaker 1: It is a scratch off deck of cards, and I
Speaker 1: think Bailey might have googled it, and it has different
Speaker 1: things to do in Minnesota, like Gooseberry Falls or Apostle Islands,
Speaker 1: like a.
Speaker 2: Bucket list for Minnesota things, and.
Speaker 1: It actually looked really cool. The cards are broken into
Speaker 1: categories like active dining, what season is best, how much
Speaker 1: time it will require, and the cost. All of that
Speaker 1: being said, I got of her black Friday twenty twenty
Speaker 1: three and I have not yet scratched a single one. No,
Speaker 1: many cities all across the state are included, not just
Speaker 1: the metro. It sounds cool to me, I don't miss.
Speaker 1: The problem is Susan is not an adventurer and she
Speaker 1: doesn't want to go to the Apostle Islands and go kayaking.
Speaker 1: She would be grudgingly yes. And I think that's one
Speaker 1: thing that is really it is difficult is finding somebody
Speaker 1: and I think in a relationship you should have the
Speaker 1: same sense of adventure. She really doesn't like adventure, and
Speaker 1: she's like, ah, my balance isn't what it used to be.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you're letting yourself turn into an old person.
Speaker 1: Go out and do your thing.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well what does she do? Because we obviously we
Speaker 3: know what your hobbies are, what your interests are, because
Speaker 3: we work with you and we hear about them. But
Speaker 3: what does Susan like to do that potentially the two
Speaker 3: you could do together?
Speaker 1: Match three D? She likes to play Match three D.
Speaker 3: Okay, anything else?
Speaker 1: No, that's really all I like that. That's really all
Speaker 1: I can think of.
Speaker 3: I mean, do you guys, You guys will do like
Speaker 3: trivia nights sometimes. Yeah, that's something fun and simple and
Speaker 3: not dangerous. Doesn't have to risk her balance. Yeah, well,
Speaker 3: I don't know, if you're staying on a barstool, you
Speaker 3: might be a little wobbly there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, no, let's continue. Secondly, on the topic
Speaker 1: of breast milk brownies, this came up on the show
Speaker 1: if you missed it. Somebody made brownies for a pot
Speaker 1: luck and they somebody they raved about them, and somebody
Speaker 1: said how did you What do you put in these brownies?
Speaker 1: She's like, I put breast milk in them. So they
Speaker 1: feel free to pass on this question. I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to cross any boundaries, but since you said you've tasted
Speaker 1: Susan's breast milk, I can't help but wonder straight from
Speaker 1: the tap or already bottled straight from the tap? Oh, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's definitely straight from the tap.
Speaker 3: I'm the same.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you are the same.
Speaker 3: What straight from the tap isn't what you just said?
Speaker 1: Yeah, you tasted breast milk straight from the tap.
Speaker 3: No, I thought we were talking about water. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: be honest. I was reading an email from someone saying
Speaker 3: thank you for Christmas wish today, and so I thought
Speaker 3: we're talking about water. I would like to drink it
Speaker 3: straight from the tap. Though, what you're talking about.
Speaker 2: You've had it straight from the tap, Dave baby, obviously.
Speaker 1: Well, the interesting thing is with breast milk is if
Speaker 1: you squeeze your breast, it'll squirt in multi streams all
Speaker 1: over the place. You're looking at me like I'm making
Speaker 1: this same.
Speaker 2: No, I just wanted to. I want you to finish
Speaker 2: the story about you trying it.
Speaker 1: I don't really have much of the story. But but
Speaker 1: if a woman who is like lactating, if she takes
Speaker 1: her boobs and squeezes them, they'll spray in multiple streams,
Speaker 1: like all over the place.
Speaker 2: I like you doing with this.
Speaker 1: It's true, it's like and you don't squeeze the nipple.
Speaker 2: What did it taste like that?
Speaker 1: Kind of like butter like butter, like sweet sweet? It's sweet.
Speaker 1: It was very sweet, like crank buttery. Ye delicious.
Speaker 2: From the tap. Guys.
Speaker 1: Also, I know you've got no control over this, but
Speaker 1: the current commercial and repeat for Bartisian is the worst.
Speaker 1: I would take one hundred chumb of casino ads over
Speaker 1: that any day. I know it's a national commercial, but
Speaker 1: the way the guy says jollier sounds like vaunt. I
Speaker 1: don't know it. I'm sorry you put up with that.
Speaker 1: Final thoughts, what's the oddist gift somebody got you that
Speaker 1: showed how little they really knew you. I personally got
Speaker 1: a box of eight assorted can goods right from Crystal.
Speaker 1: Dated a girl one time when I was probably twenty,
Speaker 1: and she got me an ice buck with a cow
Speaker 1: ice bucket with a cowboy theme, like you go into
Speaker 1: a hotel room, you know the ice buckets near by
Speaker 1: the TV. Yeah, she got me an ice bucket. The
Speaker 1: top was a cow a horse's head, and the handles
Speaker 1: on the side looked like stirrups with fake leather wrapped
Speaker 1: around it.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: And I knew that it was because she didn't have
Speaker 1: any money and she probably found it at the dollar
Speaker 1: store for you know, like a really good price. And
Speaker 1: I opened it and I'm like, what the fuck? But
Speaker 1: I pretended, like, what use does a twenty year old
Speaker 1: half for a ice ice bucket?
Speaker 2: Zero?
Speaker 1: What about you?
Speaker 2: Well, I can't. I mean I would have to think
Speaker 2: about it. But I know for a fact, like in general,
Speaker 2: if someone doesn't know what to get me for Christmas,
Speaker 2: which apparently is often, they get me things with unicorns
Speaker 2: on them. Because I saw unicorn once when I was fifteen,
Speaker 2: and it was my whole personality for a little bit
Speaker 2: of time. And people know that about me, and so
Speaker 2: they're like, you know what, Bailey likes unicorns, So they
Speaker 2: just get me unicorn stuff. And I'm so sick of
Speaker 2: unicorn stuff. You guys, stop buying me unicorns.
Speaker 1: You know. It's funny because I remember when Fallen was
Speaker 1: doing Bee keeping because up to about six or seven
Speaker 1: or eight years ago, Fallin had a bee hive out
Speaker 1: in her backyard and she would I remember, she would
Speaker 1: tend to them and feed them, and she had the
Speaker 1: goofy looking little hat with the net over the face
Speaker 1: and the gloves and all that, and so every gift
Speaker 1: she got was bowles with bees on them, towels with
Speaker 1: bees and them, spatulas that were shaped like bees. And
Speaker 1: she's like, God, people need to stop getting me be shit. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, guilty.
Speaker 2: Once they know the one thing about then they're like,
Speaker 2: well this is it forever. Yeah, Like, oh, man, get
Speaker 2: to know me. I'm more than just a unicorn.
Speaker 1: Girl, Jenny. Any gift that you got that was a
Speaker 1: proof they didn't know you.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: My dad's just the king of buying anything off QVC
Speaker 3: because it's always buy one, get one free or something.
Speaker 3: So he'll buy something for one of us, one of
Speaker 3: the sisters, and then the other one gets the other
Speaker 3: like discounted version of it whatever. So it's just always
Speaker 3: random shit. So if he has to sit and explain
Speaker 3: some random mechanism to us that he thought was so
Speaker 3: cool on QVC, that's usually where I'm like, Dad, did
Speaker 3: you even think about this? Or were you just sold
Speaker 3: by the people on QVC? He was sold?
Speaker 1: Okay, I think you told me that about your dad,
Speaker 1: that he's just a little bit clueless as far I
Speaker 1: think we we had a big discussion not too long
Speaker 1: ago about older people and parents, but especially grandparents, that
Speaker 1: they don't know what to get you. Yeah, and they try,
Speaker 1: you know, that's the thing. They really are trying, but
Speaker 1: they don't know. And a lot of the time they
Speaker 1: don't have any money, all right. Next one, Ashley writes
Speaker 1: in says, want to drop in a very quick note.
Speaker 1: As I was listening to the Minnesota Goodbye and I
Speaker 1: heard you and Jenny talking about walking hiking poles, simply
Speaker 1: wanted to offer up that the main most common use
Speaker 1: for poles, and likely why Dave said he saw somebody
Speaker 1: walking on a sidewalk, which struck him as unnecessary, is
Speaker 1: to keep the swelling down on your hands. I'm from Minnesota,
Speaker 1: but I lived in Colorado for years, and between the
Speaker 1: altitude and the long time spent swinging your arms hiking,
Speaker 1: you're in trouble. If you got any rings on your
Speaker 1: fingers as your hands and fingers swell to chubby little
Speaker 1: hot dogs after a few hours, and good luck on
Speaker 1: getting those rings off at the end of the day.
Speaker 1: It's very uncomfortable, to say the least. By using poles,
Speaker 1: you keep blood from pooling up in your fingers and
Speaker 1: it is much more comfy experience. I guess if it
Speaker 1: is easier on your knees or has additional benefits for
Speaker 1: train added bonus. Thanks for all you guys do. I
Speaker 1: love listening and can't get enough of y'all. Cheers from Ashley.
Speaker 2: That makes sense, Thanks for that explanation. Yeah, because my
Speaker 2: hands do swell up when I go on walks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just from the swinging.
Speaker 3: Your hands are using down more until the blood's going
Speaker 3: down to them.
Speaker 2: That makes sense.
Speaker 1: I was going to say that when I was training
Speaker 1: for Pike's Peak, I hiked up six miles and back
Speaker 1: twice to train, and then once all the way to
Speaker 1: the top thirteen miles, and all three of those times,
Speaker 1: my fingers swelled up so much, and I was concerned
Speaker 1: about it, like is this some sort of in my mind,
Speaker 1: I came up with the term pulmonary edema. Now I
Speaker 1: don't even know what that is. This sounds right, though,
Speaker 1: and I thought, is this pulmonary edema, which I don't
Speaker 1: even know. Look up the definition if you will, Bailey
Speaker 1: A pulmonary edema. Bailey's always really handy with the Google
Speaker 1: pulmonary pulmonary edema? Is what is this? What does it do? Anyway?
Speaker 1: What are the symptoms?
Speaker 2: Okay? Well, a pulmonary edema is a life threatening condition
Speaker 2: that occurs when fluid builds up in the lungs, making
Speaker 2: it difficult.
Speaker 1: To break lungs. Okay, not the fingertips, not your finger tips, okay.
Speaker 1: So what I would do is I would feel my
Speaker 1: fingers getting like kind of messages. Yeah, and you can
Speaker 1: feel it, you can actually feel it. So I would
Speaker 1: put my hands above my head as I walked up
Speaker 1: for like, you know, like a few hundred yards. And
Speaker 1: then I thought, Okay, anybody who sees me is going
Speaker 1: to think that I'm praising Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, exactly.
Speaker 1: And I don't care if people think that I'm praising
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. As I got my
Speaker 1: hands up in.
Speaker 2: The air, that are your surrendering or I'm surrendering like
Speaker 2: please or don't shoot or right exacactly.
Speaker 1: There. I'm unarmed is another one. But yeah, so I
Speaker 1: found out it was just kind of a natural thing.
Speaker 1: But I don't like hiking poles, and I'm not going
Speaker 1: to use hiking poles. I will rather just put my
Speaker 1: arms up in the.
Speaker 2: Air, okay, and praise praise him. People do that a lot.
Speaker 3: A lot of the times. People just rest their hands
Speaker 3: on their head, like, yeah, oh yeah, I've I mean
Speaker 3: since I started hiking, like a handful of years ago.
Speaker 3: I always do that when I hike, eventually, because I
Speaker 3: hate the feeling of my sausagey fingers. But you can't
Speaker 3: do anything about your feet. Your feet just blow up
Speaker 3: and you.
Speaker 2: Deal with it.
Speaker 1: So it's not pulmonaryan demons. It's not that. Remember on
Speaker 1: Friday we were talking about Patty's wedding misadventures. Yes, and
Speaker 1: Patty continues with the wedding misadventures, and let me see
Speaker 1: if I can pick up where we left off. The
Speaker 1: ceremony lasted about twenty minutes, including the sermon from the
Speaker 1: pastor in which he mentioned the divorce the word divorce
Speaker 1: six times. Yes we counted it was said in the
Speaker 1: context of Bible verses, but really not a very uplifting
Speaker 1: message for this young couple. Now, if you missed the
Speaker 1: first part, you can go back and listen to Patty's
Speaker 1: first part of the email. But basically it was just
Speaker 1: a very instagrammy weird kind of a wedding. Yeah, strange,
Speaker 1: very strange. After the ceremony, the couple walked back down
Speaker 1: the aisle and the bride insisted that her groomed dip
Speaker 1: her and kiss her so the photographer could capture the moment.
Speaker 1: But once was not enough, as the entire congregation stood waiting.
Speaker 1: This couple recreated the dip and kiss two more times
Speaker 1: so they could retaking the photo. I'm sure the picture
Speaker 1: will be on the bride's social media as a spontaneous moment,
Speaker 1: but we had to stand through it three times. Cocktail
Speaker 1: hour outdoors, I saw workers from the venue carrying the
Speaker 1: same flowers from the chapel that were on the floor
Speaker 1: during the ceremony. They put them on the tables. Later,
Speaker 1: with the plates full of food were placed on the tables.
Speaker 1: The baby's breath in the large bouquet was hanging over
Speaker 1: my plate. Yes, the same one that had been on
Speaker 1: the floor of the chapel was now touching the food.
Speaker 1: I was about to eat EWW. After dinner came the toast.
Speaker 1: Here we go. The best man started it off. He
Speaker 1: was a good speaker, but he went on far too long,
Speaker 1: telling story after story about very specific times in the
Speaker 1: life of himself and the groom, whom he's known since
Speaker 1: elementary school. Here comes the mate of honor. She giggled
Speaker 1: her way through another way too long speech that she
Speaker 1: read off her phone. I'm just going to tell you,
Speaker 1: reading anything off your phone looks like shit. It really does.
Speaker 1: At least have the grace of putting it on a
Speaker 1: piece of paper.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I know it's easier off your phone, but it looks
Speaker 1: like shit. I saw a comic one time, like an
Speaker 1: like it was, what do they call it, amateur night?
Speaker 2: Oh sure, yeah yeah, amateur night.
Speaker 1: Stand up and read their routine off their phone, And
Speaker 1: I thought, fucking memorize your comedy routine.
Speaker 2: I've seen so many stand up like amateur nights where
Speaker 2: they look at their notes so much, either on their
Speaker 2: phone or on a piece of paper. But I'm like,
Speaker 2: you couldn't you have taken like an hour just to practice,
Speaker 2: smit some of these to memory practice.
Speaker 1: That shit, practice it. You don't see carrot Top, who's
Speaker 1: my favorite comedian? Come out, yes, come out and start
Speaker 1: reading his shit off his phone. So practice, yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean seriously. And if you don't practice your speech, then
Speaker 1: it's going to suck. I will tell you that right now.
Speaker 2: Oh no matter.
Speaker 1: She went into too much detail describing how they met
Speaker 1: in elementary school, had so much fun in high school.
Speaker 1: Even detailed their school schedule, fifth period English, seventh period history.
Speaker 1: Then yeah right. Both the best man and maid of
Speaker 1: honor told so many inside jokes that were not funny
Speaker 1: at all, so no one was laughing. The worst was
Speaker 1: the father of the bride, who pulled the speech out
Speaker 1: of his pocket and proceeded to read it. From where
Speaker 1: I was sitting, it looked like a full page, single spaced,
Speaker 1: handwritten speech, but no, there were four pages. He also
Speaker 1: went into way too much detail. Listen to this detail,
Speaker 1: describing times with his daughter throughout her life, starting with
Speaker 1: time with we would play with the plastic food in
Speaker 1: her pretend kitchen. There was a plastic steak and some
Speaker 1: plastic vegetables. Know how much detail you need to get into.
Speaker 1: This is one of the things we once in a while,
Speaker 1: we'll get a caller on the radio who you know,
Speaker 1: they have a great story, but they give us way
Speaker 1: too much detail, and I'll choke and I'll be in
Speaker 1: an asshole and I'll say what color shoes were you
Speaker 1: wearing that day?
Speaker 2: They'll be like, well, I get maybe it was great
Speaker 2: because you were my blue shoes.
Speaker 1: I think that with a good storyteller, they know what
Speaker 1: Because people think details make the story. Yeah, some details do.
Speaker 1: I think maybe details of how you felt make the story. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But details of what color shoes you were wearing.
Speaker 2: Does not matter too the trajectory of the dramatic structure.
Speaker 1: The whole time, we were trying to look happy because
Speaker 1: there were three, yes, three photographers and a videographer documenting
Speaker 1: the wedding. We didn't want to be caught rolling our
Speaker 1: eyes or looking bored. When they finally ended, I looked
Speaker 1: at the time and realized those three speeches had taken
Speaker 1: thirty five minutes. That's an average of about eleven and
Speaker 1: a half minutes apiece. Way too, way too long.
Speaker 2: They're supposed to be two minutes.
Speaker 1: Do you think two minutes is about Ryan?
Speaker 2: Well, like I usually say like two to four minutes.
Speaker 2: You say one thing about the bride, you say one
Speaker 2: thing about the groom or whatever the couple is, and
Speaker 2: then you say one thing about them together and that's it. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm done.
Speaker 1: Have you ever given a mative honor speech?
Speaker 3: Jenny, Yes, and my sister's wedding, and I did about
Speaker 3: like a quick, like six second intro. Then I did
Speaker 3: a rap to the Fresh Prince of bel Air of
Speaker 3: their love story that lasted about two minutes, so I
Speaker 3: probably got mine done in under four minas.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, here we go three.
Speaker 3: Oh don't I don't remember my rap?
Speaker 1: You don't remember it? I don't written down somewhere.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do.
Speaker 1: Well, Oh, tomorrow on the Minnesota good Bye Bye.
Speaker 3: I have the audio somewhere actually because I had to
Speaker 3: like change my email recently, so I had all this
Speaker 3: stuff on a drive and I did see the audio
Speaker 3: recently of it, so.
Speaker 1: I'll look for it all right tomorrow on the Minnesota Goodbye. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Jenny's wrap to the Fresh Pint, Right, I can't wait.
Speaker 2: I I did a made up on our speech in
Speaker 2: saying as well, if I could use your ukulele because
Speaker 2: I did a little yukulele song.
Speaker 1: Are you serious?
Speaker 2: We'll both do?
Speaker 1: This will be a big show tomorrow. Wow, don't miss
Speaker 1: tomorrow's Minnesota Goodbye and send in your thoughts. Concert thoughts
Speaker 1: would be good. I'd love to hear your opinion on
Speaker 1: that one, whether people should stand up and scream saying
Speaker 1: through the entire show, or whether you're there to listen
Speaker 1: to the artist. Let us know Ryan Show at KDWB
Speaker 1: dot com and we'll see you tomorrow with a very
Speaker 1: special Minnesota Goodbye.
