WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.960 --> 00:00:03.839
<v Speaker 1>Final Minnesota Goodbye of twenty twenty four. Next time we

2
00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:09.000
<v Speaker 1>do this will be on Thursday, January second, and the

3
00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:12.960
<v Speaker 1>holidays will be over and we'll have the tree taken

4
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:18.760
<v Speaker 1>down and Christmas stuff put away. And isn't there always

5
00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:21.960
<v Speaker 1>like under your tree, like the day after Christmas there's

6
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:25.039
<v Speaker 1>one lonely present that the person didn't show up or

7
00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:28.120
<v Speaker 1>they weren't there, they couldn't make it. So there's one sad,

8
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:31.440
<v Speaker 1>lonely present sitting under the tree, like on January fourth.

9
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:33.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I did a photo shoot on my tree last

10
00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:36.079
<v Speaker 2>night because we don't have like a ton of gifts,

11
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:37.960
<v Speaker 2>because we don't do a ton with people, or my

12
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:40.520
<v Speaker 2>sisters handle the presence for like my parents most of

13
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:43.159
<v Speaker 2>the time. And so I took a picture of my

14
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:45.439
<v Speaker 2>tree before coming in this morning because I feel like

15
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:48.200
<v Speaker 2>your guys's gifts took up half of the Christmas gifts

16
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:50.960
<v Speaker 2>under the tree, and I wanted that like magical picture

17
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:52.520
<v Speaker 2>before I started giving away gifts.

18
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's true, and your tree looks great with presents,

19
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>but it looks so sad. Yeah, And then you know

20
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:01.000
<v Speaker 1>most people, if you're anything like me, you water your

21
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>tree diligently until about December eighteenth, and then you kind

22
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:07.680
<v Speaker 1>of go fuck it because it's gonna die anyway.

23
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:09.799
<v Speaker 3>You're the only person I know that has a real tree.

24
00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:13.319
<v Speaker 3>I literally put my tree out yesterday. Oh really, It's

25
00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:15.480
<v Speaker 3>just a tiny, little, like teeny tiny tree and it's

26
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:17.519
<v Speaker 3>got fiber optic lights on it. So all I had

27
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:19.000
<v Speaker 3>to do was take it out a box, and then

28
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:21.959
<v Speaker 3>I just never went to grab the box. So I

29
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:23.519
<v Speaker 3>was like, you know what, I have time, So I

30
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:25.000
<v Speaker 3>went and grabbed the box and threw it out. And

31
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:27.040
<v Speaker 3>I felt bad because my cat sat and stared at it,

32
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:28.439
<v Speaker 3>and I was like, you could have been doing this

33
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:31.879
<v Speaker 3>this whole time, and I was a bad mom.

34
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:35.480
<v Speaker 1>I one time, I Susan and I were not together

35
00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:36.719
<v Speaker 1>at this time. I don't know if you know this,

36
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.439
<v Speaker 1>but we've been broken up a couple of times and

37
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:40.959
<v Speaker 1>then gotten back together. I was actually engaged to somebody

38
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:44.159
<v Speaker 1>else for a while, but then one Christmas, I was

39
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>totally alone, lived in a nice town home, but I

40
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:48.640
<v Speaker 1>didn't have a tree. I didn't want to buy a tree,

41
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.560
<v Speaker 1>but I had a snow globe with a tree inside

42
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>of it. So that was my Christmas tree. Wow, that

43
00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:56.480
<v Speaker 1>was peticlt it.

44
00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:58.200
<v Speaker 4>In your hand shaking it back and forth.

45
00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:01.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I set it up on top of the fireplace.

46
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:03.560
<v Speaker 1>It was fine. All right, Here we go with the

47
00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:08.120
<v Speaker 1>emails all the way from Dodgeville, Michigan. Dave, Jenny, vont

48
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:11.479
<v Speaker 1>and Bailey. I've been a longtime listener but never emailed.

49
00:02:11.479 --> 00:02:11.599
<v Speaker 2>Then.

50
00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:13.759
<v Speaker 1>Of course I've thought about it over the years, but

51
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.520
<v Speaker 1>never took the initiative. I felt they had to write

52
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:20.680
<v Speaker 1>in after hearing Jenny mention Mount Bohemia. Yeah, I live

53
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.639
<v Speaker 1>in the up about fifty minutes from Bohemia. If Jenny

54
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:25.680
<v Speaker 1>and Andrew decide to make the seven hour trip up,

55
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>they can feel free to email me if you need

56
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.240
<v Speaker 1>recommendations in the area. It is a winter wonderland up

57
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:33.439
<v Speaker 1>here and really is beautiful. What did you say about

58
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Mount Bohemia, Well, we just we got.

59
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:38.319
<v Speaker 2>A season pass actually for Mount Bohemia because it's only

60
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:39.280
<v Speaker 2>ninety nine dollars.

61
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:41.120
<v Speaker 4>It was a ski area, Yes, it's a ski area.

62
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:43.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so we got a season pass and it actually

63
00:02:43.039 --> 00:02:46.080
<v Speaker 2>works at like other places too, including Spirit up in Duluth.

64
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 2>So we were like, well we might as well do

65
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:49.759
<v Speaker 2>that because we didn't go for like the big passes

66
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:52.159
<v Speaker 2>this year, like the Icon or the epic passes. But

67
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:54.680
<v Speaker 2>we are we don't know what we're doing yet for

68
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:56.400
<v Speaker 2>the holidays. We were going to maybe go up there

69
00:02:56.400 --> 00:02:58.639
<v Speaker 2>this weekend already, but they're not getting a ton of

70
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:02.240
<v Speaker 2>snow yet. And maybe this person emailing disagrees, but Andrew

71
00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:04.400
<v Speaker 2>says that it's only worth it to go there if

72
00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:07.360
<v Speaker 2>it's loaded with snow, because it's very steep runs.

73
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:08.639
<v Speaker 4>It's almost all black diamonds.

74
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.039
<v Speaker 1>Oh really Okay, yeah.

75
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:12.599
<v Speaker 2>But it's like a grey It's one of the better

76
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.000
<v Speaker 2>places in the Midwest because, as you know, a lot

77
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:17.520
<v Speaker 2>of our ski hills here are more hills, not mountains

78
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:17.960
<v Speaker 2>and stuff.

79
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:20.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I've been in the Up one time, and I

80
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:23.919
<v Speaker 1>remember how thinking how sparsely populated it was. Y. It

81
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:26.199
<v Speaker 1>just there's not a lot of people up there, and

82
00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:29.319
<v Speaker 1>I think it's because it's so remote. Did you know

83
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:32.360
<v Speaker 1>that to get to the Up, I think from before

84
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:34.520
<v Speaker 1>they built the macket is in the Macanaw Bridge, you

85
00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:37.039
<v Speaker 1>had to take a ferry, Like back until the sixties

86
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>or whenever, when they built that bridge, you had to

87
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:41.919
<v Speaker 1>take a ferry to get to the Up from lower

88
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>part of Michigan.

89
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I was gonna say, you meet from Michigan because

90
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:46.879
<v Speaker 2>I was like, you obviously can drive there from Minnesota

91
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>or Wisconsin, you just have to go a long route

92
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:52.120
<v Speaker 2>for Michigan. I will say that Andrew was telling me

93
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:54.960
<v Speaker 2>about mam Bohemia because I've never been there, and when

94
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:57.560
<v Speaker 2>we go, he says, you better get ready. It's going

95
00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:00.039
<v Speaker 2>to be just a sausage fest. It like girls, I

96
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:02.240
<v Speaker 2>don't really go there, and still it's like when you

97
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:04.400
<v Speaker 2>walk in, they're all going to be like shocked. And

98
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:08.639
<v Speaker 2>the best part about it is like their promotional materials

99
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:11.599
<v Speaker 2>have like women in bikinis in it because they got

100
00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:14.080
<v Speaker 2>this Nordic spa attached to it, and so it's like

101
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:16.079
<v Speaker 2>all these hot women in bikinis. And when you show

102
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:17.160
<v Speaker 2>me this, I was like, what are you going to

103
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:19.040
<v Speaker 2>the Hooters version of a ski resort?

104
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:19.279
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

105
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:22.759
<v Speaker 2>And he's like, yeah, there's never girls there, and I

106
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:26.079
<v Speaker 2>was like, so they're just like getting people to come

107
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:28.000
<v Speaker 2>thinking all these hot babes are going to be there

108
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:29.399
<v Speaker 2>and there's it's a sausage vest.

109
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:32.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna that's funny. I would have never realized that

110
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:34.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to throw out something that I think is true,

111
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:37.439
<v Speaker 1>but I could be wrong, and it's just kind of

112
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:41.399
<v Speaker 1>a thought, but skiing and snowboarding is not as fun

113
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 1>as people think it is. Now stay with me, okay.

114
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.600
<v Speaker 1>I think people do it because it looks cool, and

115
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:51.560
<v Speaker 1>it is cool and it's a vibe. So I don't

116
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.279
<v Speaker 1>really enjoy, Like, is it worth it to me to drive?

117
00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:59.319
<v Speaker 1>Like if I'm in Colorado to drive two and a

118
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:01.360
<v Speaker 1>half hours up to breck and Ridge, spend one hundred

119
00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:04.480
<v Speaker 1>and eighty nine dollars on a lift ticket to snowboard

120
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:08.160
<v Speaker 1>for four or five or six hours, and to spend

121
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty dollars on a burger and seven dollars on a

122
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:14.439
<v Speaker 1>diet coke and then drive home two and a half hours.

123
00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:18.319
<v Speaker 1>Is it really that fun? My answer personally, and I

124
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:19.800
<v Speaker 1>want you to turn this over in your mind a

125
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:22.839
<v Speaker 1>little bit. The answer is no, it is not that fun,

126
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:26.639
<v Speaker 1>but people do it because of the vibe, the fashion,

127
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:31.439
<v Speaker 1>the adventure being able to say I'm going snowboarding, I'm

128
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:35.120
<v Speaker 1>going skiing, But when I'm actually snowboarding down the mountain,

129
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:38.160
<v Speaker 1>which is the heart and soul of the snow sport,

130
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:43.079
<v Speaker 1>it ain't that fun. It's okay, maybe it's just me, Jenny.

131
00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I know you disagree, show Okay, then go ahead.

132
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.480
<v Speaker 2>I really do. I think it is just as much

133
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 2>of a hobby as it is for Bailey to go

134
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:53.399
<v Speaker 2>to the theater, for people who play pick a ball,

135
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:57.079
<v Speaker 2>for vont who likes to watch late night shows, whatever.

136
00:05:57.319 --> 00:05:59.160
<v Speaker 2>I think it's just as much of a hobby because

137
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:02.240
<v Speaker 2>I find so al much join it. I the fashion

138
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:04.480
<v Speaker 2>aspect of it is my least favorite part. I fucking

139
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:07.199
<v Speaker 2>hate putting on snow pants and all the layers. I

140
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:09.160
<v Speaker 2>don't care what I look like when I go snowboarding.

141
00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:11.000
<v Speaker 2>That's the best part about it, because you just put

142
00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:14.439
<v Speaker 2>on a goggles and a helmet and stuff. But I

143
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:17.519
<v Speaker 2>really do love to snowboard. I think it's very fun.

144
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:20.680
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, I mean Andrew and I just like go

145
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:23.160
<v Speaker 2>by ourselves and maybe get a picture of us at

146
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:24.600
<v Speaker 2>the top of the mountain every once in a while.

147
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:27.120
<v Speaker 2>But I don't think we do anything that's like for

148
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.680
<v Speaker 2>social media. I mean supposed I do like a cool jump,

149
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:32.319
<v Speaker 2>and by a cool jump, it's like when I get

150
00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:33.560
<v Speaker 2>like two inches off, like.

151
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:38.240
<v Speaker 4>And then you look back at the video and you're like, oh, wow, no,

152
00:06:38.279 --> 00:06:38.600
<v Speaker 4>I don't.

153
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:41.959
<v Speaker 1>And people love skiing and snowboarded long before social media

154
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:44.240
<v Speaker 1>and long before you know, taking like you know, digital

155
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.160
<v Speaker 1>pictures up on the on the slope. I don't know.

156
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I just that has been my experience. I've liked skiing

157
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.079
<v Speaker 1>and snowboarding. But when I look at it now and

158
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:54.000
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's like an age perspective, there's so it's a

159
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:56.759
<v Speaker 1>five hour round trip. If I gonna go like here,

160
00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.319
<v Speaker 1>I can go skiing over at Highland. It'll make me

161
00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:02.720
<v Speaker 1>thirty minutes to get there from my house. Then I

162
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:04.439
<v Speaker 1>got to buy the ticket, and then I got to

163
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:06.480
<v Speaker 1>wait in the lift line and cold, I got snow

164
00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:08.639
<v Speaker 1>going up my butt crack or down my butt crack,

165
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:13.800
<v Speaker 1>And to me, it's just not as fun as it

166
00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:15.839
<v Speaker 1>should be for the effort that you put into it.

167
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:17.279
<v Speaker 1>And that's a personal thing.

168
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.199
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever done like a ski and ski out place?

169
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:22.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah we have, hey, yeah, oh, Because I feel like

170
00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:23.759
<v Speaker 2>that's a different experience and a lot of times it's

171
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:27.319
<v Speaker 2>very expensive, but like in Keystone, Colorado, it's actually very

172
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:29.879
<v Speaker 2>reasonably priced. Where you're in the ski village, you walk

173
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.319
<v Speaker 2>to the lift and you're right there. So like, I

174
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:34.800
<v Speaker 2>feel like you have a different experience when it comes

175
00:07:34.839 --> 00:07:36.720
<v Speaker 2>to going to like the big mountains, because usually you're

176
00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:39.800
<v Speaker 2>just saying Colorado and then you drive from your Colorado house,

177
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:42.600
<v Speaker 2>so you're not doing the whole experience of staying in

178
00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:44.920
<v Speaker 2>the village and like stuff like that. That makes things

179
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:46.759
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more eat like easier.

180
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:49.079
<v Speaker 1>Okay, lad we've put it this way. I mean, what

181
00:07:49.240 --> 00:07:51.720
<v Speaker 1>concert would love go see? Is it's like Taylor Swift

182
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:55.319
<v Speaker 1>might be your favorite concert, would you spend eighteen thousand dollars?

183
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:58.279
<v Speaker 1>There becomes a point where you go, I like Taylor Swift,

184
00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:00.639
<v Speaker 1>but it's not worth eighteen thousand dollars. And I guess

185
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:03.519
<v Speaker 1>with me, I like skiing and snowboarding, but it's just

186
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:07.920
<v Speaker 1>the time, effort and expense is really what do you think?

187
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I get it. It's totally a personal preference thing,

188
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>and so let us know who's right. I think I'm right.

189
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:17.319
<v Speaker 1>Next one, I want to thank you guys from the

190
00:08:17.319 --> 00:08:18.800
<v Speaker 1>same person. I want to thank you guys for being

191
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:21.199
<v Speaker 1>a constant positive in my day. Over the years, you

192
00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:24.560
<v Speaker 1>provided many laugh one of my favorite being when Dave says,

193
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:26.720
<v Speaker 1>you have to take a break, but we won't even

194
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:29.480
<v Speaker 1>know you were gone. I wouldn't have known it if

195
00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Dave didn't tell us. Okay, that's funny. I will end

196
00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:33.840
<v Speaker 1>this email before he gets too long. I'd love a

197
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:36.320
<v Speaker 1>staff writer sticker if possible. Thanks for all you do,

198
00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:40.399
<v Speaker 1>and that is from Alana and Alanta. I will make

199
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:44.440
<v Speaker 1>sure that Secretary Brie gets you a sticker and shout

200
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:48.159
<v Speaker 1>out Secretary Brie for handling one of the more I

201
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:54.559
<v Speaker 1>don't know what tedious. Thank you, Jenny, so thank you

202
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:58.559
<v Speaker 1>so much. Next one, Tyler says, I got a slight

203
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:01.559
<v Speaker 1>complaint for Bailey. Oh she keeps saying the trip is

204
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:04.000
<v Speaker 1>from Northfield, but he is from He's from this I

205
00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:06.600
<v Speaker 1>get it, which is next to Northfield. If somebody works

206
00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:10.639
<v Speaker 1>in Dundas, I am sick to death of people thinking

207
00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:15.159
<v Speaker 1>we are Northfield. Lol. Please give the attention the little

208
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:16.639
<v Speaker 1>town's need. Thank you.

209
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:20.519
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I understand that he is from Dundas, but when

210
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:23.399
<v Speaker 3>I met him it was because of the Northfield defeat

211
00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:24.480
<v Speaker 3>of Jesse James days.

212
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:27.039
<v Speaker 5>So I want to make sure I plug Northfield. You

213
00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:28.200
<v Speaker 5>know enough for that.

214
00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:31.120
<v Speaker 3>And they're right next to each other. But yes, he

215
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:34.840
<v Speaker 3>lives in Dundas, right next to the two bars in town.

216
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:38.639
<v Speaker 5>Oh okay, so convenient, that's my boy.

217
00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 1>Happy holidays, y'all, Hoping each and every one of you

218
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.720
<v Speaker 1>have a great holiday season in New Year after today's

219
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:48.759
<v Speaker 1>podcast about servers and remembering orders. My questions for Jenny Jenny,

220
00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:51.159
<v Speaker 1>I wrote in the other week about being super anal

221
00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:54.080
<v Speaker 1>when going out to we eat, including checking the cleanliness

222
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:57.240
<v Speaker 1>of the restaurant, seeing how long a server takes, et cetera.

223
00:09:57.600 --> 00:09:59.960
<v Speaker 1>My question is how many drinks could you hold in

224
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.559
<v Speaker 1>two hands? At my prime of bartending and serving, I

225
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:06.600
<v Speaker 1>could put three glasses in one hand and one in

226
00:10:06.639 --> 00:10:09.279
<v Speaker 1>the other, so I could hand them out total of four.

227
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:13.080
<v Speaker 2>Yes, that's the top for me. I usually didn't do

228
00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:15.320
<v Speaker 2>the three in one hand because my hands aren't that big,

229
00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:18.120
<v Speaker 2>but I always did two in one hand and one

230
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:21.159
<v Speaker 2>in the other. Or I have gotten three in one hand,

231
00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:22.480
<v Speaker 2>but that's yeah, that's the top.

232
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:23.639
<v Speaker 1>I never carry a tray.

233
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:25.039
<v Speaker 4>What's up the tray?

234
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:25.679
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

235
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:28.120
<v Speaker 2>Trays are so inconvenient when it put down to it

236
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:31.320
<v Speaker 2>yet okay, And I had one awful situation when I

237
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:33.960
<v Speaker 2>was training at like a new restaurant job, where I

238
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:35.960
<v Speaker 2>was holding the tray full of like ten drinks and

239
00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:38.679
<v Speaker 2>I made the mistake of emptying one side too quick.

240
00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:42.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh oh yeah, fell over from the weight onto the

241
00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:44.159
<v Speaker 2>table onto one of the guests of a party of

242
00:10:44.200 --> 00:10:46.960
<v Speaker 2>like twelve, and I was like, ah, they're.

243
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:47.600
<v Speaker 4>Never going to hire me.

244
00:10:47.679 --> 00:10:50.159
<v Speaker 2>I was like in trading and like they were pretty

245
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:53.000
<v Speaker 2>the customers were pretty nice. But yeah, trays are not.

246
00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.480
<v Speaker 2>They're really more inconvenient than they are convenience.

247
00:10:55.559 --> 00:10:59.240
<v Speaker 1>I did know that. Interesting. Okay, let's see, he says

248
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:02.600
<v Speaker 1>at my primate bar attending I could Yeah, he says that. Okay,

249
00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:04.759
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a little tanky when someone tries to

250
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:09.600
<v Speaker 1>bring out three drinks but carries them with each hand

251
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:12.440
<v Speaker 1>on either side like a triangle, holding for dear life

252
00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:14.440
<v Speaker 1>not to drop them at that point. Get a tray.

253
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.440
<v Speaker 1>I also don't want your fingers in my diet coke,

254
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:21.519
<v Speaker 1>so you're sticking your fingers down into the glasses.

255
00:11:21.679 --> 00:11:23.879
<v Speaker 2>No, you don't do that bringing them to the table.

256
00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:26.000
<v Speaker 2>If you're clearing a table off. I've done that before,

257
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:28.759
<v Speaker 2>but like not when you're bringing them to the table.

258
00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:29.679
<v Speaker 5>Gross.

259
00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:32.799
<v Speaker 1>I have the same rule five and under. I can memorize,

260
00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:34.279
<v Speaker 1>but more than that, I write it down so I

261
00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:36.440
<v Speaker 1>don't fuck up. And when you get your little ship

262
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:39.720
<v Speaker 1>heads that want to split ten fucking ways right down,

263
00:11:39.799 --> 00:11:42.120
<v Speaker 1>helps too. Sorry a little rant there anyway, Have a

264
00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:46.039
<v Speaker 1>happy holiday until next time, Lucas ps. We still have

265
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:48.080
<v Speaker 1>a few days left in the year to get some

266
00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:49.080
<v Speaker 1>dart licking in.

267
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh right, Gus helped me pick out a refrigerator at Warnerstown.

268
00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Are you serious?

269
00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:57.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he works for them, so he helped me get

270
00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:00.679
<v Speaker 2>my refrigerator. Crapped out this time last year, and it

271
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:02.440
<v Speaker 2>wasn't cold out at this time, so you know, you

272
00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:05.159
<v Speaker 2>think you could just put your shit outside, so I

273
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:06.279
<v Speaker 2>had to get one really quick.

274
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:12.559
<v Speaker 1>Next one, Mike says, all y'all have been a highlight

275
00:12:12.600 --> 00:12:15.360
<v Speaker 1>of my twenty twenty four. I cherish your authenticity. You

276
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:17.440
<v Speaker 1>just being yourselves and talking on the radio. I feel

277
00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:19.519
<v Speaker 1>like I know you the people you are, not just

278
00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:22.720
<v Speaker 1>an image portrayed on the air. I appreciate that you

279
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:25.919
<v Speaker 1>bring an admirable life perspective. There are times to be serious,

280
00:12:25.919 --> 00:12:28.240
<v Speaker 1>but not all the time. Better to take life as

281
00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:31.399
<v Speaker 1>it comes, enjoy the ride, and then be serious when necessary.

282
00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for all of that. I love y'all so much.

283
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:37.919
<v Speaker 1>Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, enjoy your time off, looking

284

00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:52.080
<v Speaker 1>all of your astrological signs and let us know if

289
00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:54.240
<v Speaker 1>you relate to the description and traits of the sign.

290
00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:56.759
<v Speaker 1>It's a fun way to learn about people. I'm a Scorpio.

291
00:12:56.840 --> 00:12:58.759
<v Speaker 1>I truly don't know much about it.

292
00:12:58.799 --> 00:12:59.919
<v Speaker 5>You're like the suxy one.

293
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:03.279
<v Speaker 1>Sex fiends I've heard were sex fiends or something like that,

294
00:13:03.720 --> 00:13:06.200
<v Speaker 1>which is not true because I dated Cricket who was

295
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:09.120
<v Speaker 1>born on the same day, and she was far from

296
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:09.840
<v Speaker 1>a sex fiend.

297
00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:13.120
<v Speaker 5>Of course, she was a lot younger birthday. What how romantic?

298
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:16.919
<v Speaker 1>Exact same birthday, one year older than me? What is

299
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:17.360
<v Speaker 1>your sign?

300
00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:19.960
<v Speaker 3>I am a Virgo, which is apparently the ones that

301
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:23.200
<v Speaker 3>are very organized and kind of like anal retentive. And

302
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:27.120
<v Speaker 3>I feel organized but also like in a chaotic way,

303
00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:31.360
<v Speaker 3>So I don't necessarily one hundred percent agree with it,

304
00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:32.879
<v Speaker 3>but it does suit me.

305
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:36.679
<v Speaker 2>And I'm a Taurus and I'm just googled what characteristics

306
00:13:36.679 --> 00:13:42.600
<v Speaker 2>are It says I'm grounded. I'm also stubborn, Yes, sensual, yeah,

307
00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:43.320
<v Speaker 2>I feel like that does.

308
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:45.320
<v Speaker 5>Chores are strong willed well.

309
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:47.399
<v Speaker 2>It says tourists are very connected to their physical and

310
00:13:47.480 --> 00:13:51.799
<v Speaker 2>sensory experiences and take their physical wellness seriously, So I

311
00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:53.240
<v Speaker 2>would say that that does describe me.

312
00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:55.879
<v Speaker 4>I'm very ah, what's the word?

313
00:13:56.600 --> 00:14:00.240
<v Speaker 2>Just? Noises affect me a lot, Like I can walk

314
00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:02.759
<v Speaker 2>into a room and hear like a million noises, whereas,

315
00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:06.279
<v Speaker 2>like I think some people can tune things out. So

316
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:10.559
<v Speaker 2>I do think that, like my sensory ability is heightened,

317
00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:12.519
<v Speaker 2>but I altill think that's because of anxiety.

318
00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:15.279
<v Speaker 5>Bonta is a Leo and those are divas, and that

319
00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:15.799
<v Speaker 5>checks out.

320
00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Now that's funny because my brother is also a leo

321
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:21.799
<v Speaker 1>Leo and my ex fiance was a Leo and they're

322
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:23.000
<v Speaker 1>not divas at all.

323
00:14:23.159 --> 00:14:26.159
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think it's like an entertainer type and I

324
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:28.360
<v Speaker 3>just used diva because that suits fut.

325
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:31.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, hello, my favorite people. I hope your last

326
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:33.559
<v Speaker 1>day of work is going well. Question for Dave do

327
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:35.679
<v Speaker 1>you ever get tripped up by having two full names?

328
00:14:36.080 --> 00:14:39.679
<v Speaker 1>Switching from Dave Ryan to Dave Flugelblinder on a daily basis,

329
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:42.360
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like two different people. I get tripped up

330
00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:45.320
<v Speaker 1>sometimes from my married name and my maiden name because

331
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:47.480
<v Speaker 1>professionally I still go by my maiden name, but my

332
00:14:47.600 --> 00:14:50.440
<v Speaker 1>legal name is my married name. I have clients who

333
00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:52.559
<v Speaker 1>literally don't know my real name, because they all know

334
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:55.519
<v Speaker 1>is my professional maiden name. I imagine you probably go

335
00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:58.480
<v Speaker 1>through something similar anyway. Hope you guys have a wonderful

336
00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:01.120
<v Speaker 1>break and we'll hear from you next year. Anna, that's

337
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:06.879
<v Speaker 1>an interesting question. Not really, I don't have an example

338
00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:10.000
<v Speaker 1>of why it does or does not bother me. But no,

339
00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:12.960
<v Speaker 1>it's like my real last name, Kibbler. I don't try

340
00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:14.879
<v Speaker 1>to hide it anymore because a lot of radio people don't.

341
00:15:14.919 --> 00:15:17.679
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Jenny's last name is Lutenberger. There there's no

342
00:15:17.799 --> 00:15:21.039
<v Speaker 1>damage from giving your real last name. But I chose

343
00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Dave Ryan because you've got a chance to have a

344
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:27.320
<v Speaker 1>radio name, so I wanted a radio name. But no,

345
00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:29.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't really you know what, When I'm with the

346
00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:32.879
<v Speaker 1>boy Scouts, I'm Dave Kibler. When I'm hanging out with

347
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Ukulele Club, I'm just Dave. Dave. I'm just Dave. I

348
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:40.320
<v Speaker 1>don't really have a persona that's off the air. But

349
00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:42.200
<v Speaker 1>when I pay bills and go to the dentist, I'm

350
00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:45.639
<v Speaker 1>Dave Kibler. You know, yeah, I feel about like not

351
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:48.360
<v Speaker 1>that feel bad, but like fallen. She was fallin bon

352
00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.440
<v Speaker 1>set and now she's pretty much fallen. Gottler. I don't

353
00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:55.919
<v Speaker 1>know about on the radio, she's just Fallen Fallen Gottler

354
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:56.759
<v Speaker 1>or bon Set.

355
00:15:57.399 --> 00:16:00.120
<v Speaker 2>I think she usually goes by Valan Gottler, but I

356
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:04.000
<v Speaker 2>feel like we always still call their fallI B. Yeah, okay,

357
00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:06.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, like when she was on the show, I

358
00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:08.399
<v Speaker 2>feel like it was always fallI B still even though

359
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:09.960
<v Speaker 2>she changed her last name to Scholar.

360
00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:13.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, And I think that's all we have. Any

361
00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:15.879
<v Speaker 1>final thoughts for the year for the Minnesota.
