Speaker 1: Let's jump into the emails on the Minnesota Goodbye. Welcome
Speaker 1: to the Minnesota Goodbye. I'm sure every day we get
Speaker 1: a few first time listeners who've never heard it before. Basically,
Speaker 1: we spend the next fifteen to twenty minutes or so
Speaker 1: talking about shit we don't get to talk about on
Speaker 1: the radio and reading emails, and we do get to
Speaker 1: swear and be more. I like the word spicy because
Speaker 1: I don't want to say dirty, because dirty just sounds
Speaker 1: like gratuitous, like a couple of fifteen year old boys
Speaker 1: talking about boobies on the school bus. Yeah, so we're
Speaker 1: not dirty, but we're a little bit more spicy, and
Speaker 1: we can talk about it anything that you want. And
Speaker 1: let's get started with an email that probably is not
Speaker 1: so spicy, but let me push the right button and
Speaker 1: we'll get to it. Dave Bailey, Jenny Jenny's not here today,
Speaker 1: by the way, longtime listener, first time rider. Happy to
Speaker 1: be listening to the Minnesota Goodbye on the regular now
Speaker 1: after I found it last summer. Been listening to KATIELBDB
Speaker 1: since the nineties, and my way back memory is the
Speaker 1: Last Chance Summer Dance from nineteen nine nine, where Backstreet
Speaker 1: Boys canceled. It was the most god awful hot September day,
Speaker 1: and five had to save the show and sing their
Speaker 1: one hit for a second time. That's at least how
Speaker 1: I recall it in my forty year old brain. No,
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right. I've told the story a million times.
Speaker 1: It was blazing hot that day, about ninety five degrees
Speaker 1: late September. Backstreet Boys were the headliner. They were at
Speaker 1: their peak. And I want to say it was not
Speaker 1: ninety nine. I want to say it was ninety eight,
Speaker 1: but it also could have been ninety seven. Not ninety
Speaker 1: eight sounds right, Yeah, I think it was ninety eight. Okay.
Speaker 1: So anyway, if Backstreet Boys canceled, they couldn't make it
Speaker 1: because three of the four three of the five were there,
Speaker 1: but the other two could not be there. They said,
Speaker 1: we can't go on. All these girls had lined up
Speaker 1: against the fence in the hot, blazing sun, and they
Speaker 1: would not leave because if they left to get water,
Speaker 1: they would lose their spot. Yeah, so they didn't get
Speaker 1: water and they got to hydrated and start to drop,
Speaker 1: oh god, like flies. So there's more to the story,
Speaker 1: but you've got most of it right, And I mean
Speaker 1: I'm I guess happy you remember it, but also not
Speaker 1: happy that it went down that way. I always mean
Speaker 1: to ride in, but after the conversation about how Jenny
Speaker 1: and Bailey feel like the old ladies of the group,
Speaker 1: I invite them to join me down here in Florida
Speaker 1: at the local Moose Club. For the average age is
Speaker 1: over seventy five. I'm the ripe old age of forty
Speaker 1: four and mostly the youngest in the crowd. While the
Speaker 1: sound of the older crowd might turn you running the
Speaker 1: other way, those octogenarians can throw down on a Friday
Speaker 1: night to uptown funk like no other. They are lovely,
Speaker 1: fun and so welcoming. There's a lot to learn from
Speaker 1: the cross generations, and mostly is to learn how to
Speaker 1: continue to have fun as you age. I echo all
Speaker 1: the sentiments about how much I love the morning crew.
Speaker 1: Thank you keep doing your thing. I would love a
Speaker 1: staff rider sticker for the guest room mini fridge, says Elsa,
Speaker 1: and I'm going to send this to her right now.
Speaker 2: Oh fun to live in a space where everyone's like
Speaker 2: over seventy five. I think that'd be fun. Those people
Speaker 2: are usually quite delightful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially if they're out. If they're not, like, you know,
Speaker 1: partying that type of thing, then they probably are quite
Speaker 1: delightful and they got the best stories. I always loved
Speaker 1: talking to old people because they always have like the
Speaker 1: best surprising story. Jan Nita writes in, and I also
Speaker 1: have a rant from her coming up now. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you remember this story, but she writes in
Speaker 1: and she says, hey, hey, y'all, Hey, just wanted to
Speaker 1: reach out and tell you, guys, guess who I ran
Speaker 1: into yesterday at the gas station. It was the lady
Speaker 1: I ranted about that was in Target. It had that
Speaker 1: little shit bag son that kept calling her a bitch.
Speaker 1: Now remember it was a month or so ago, and
Speaker 1: Jannita said that she was in Target and there was
Speaker 1: a little kid calling his mom a bitch and you're
Speaker 1: giving your bitch for not buying me this and blah
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. Yeah, that's awful, And so Wannita
Speaker 1: went over and said, you stop it, you're being a
Speaker 1: little shit or something like that. Is that how you remember?
Speaker 2: I think so that she called the kid out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So when Ian into her yesterday, she immediately ran
Speaker 1: up to me and thanked me for what I did.
Speaker 1: She said, ever since that happened, he has not called
Speaker 1: her that name or given her problems in public or
Speaker 1: at home. She said, whenever they go out, before he
Speaker 1: gets out of the car, he looks around first, as
Speaker 1: if to make certain I'm not anywhere around. She said
Speaker 1: he had asked, Mom, do you think that crazy black
Speaker 1: lady is in the store? I thought that was hilarious,
Speaker 1: and I told her don't worry. Just reach out to
Speaker 1: me anytime she thinks she might need some readjustments, she wrote.
Speaker 1: She said she wrote the Minnesota Goodbye several times because
Speaker 1: she just started listening due to her being on medical
Speaker 1: leave from work, and she heard me talk about it
Speaker 1: on my ranch. She said. Her email hasn't been read.
Speaker 1: Her name is Sarah and gives a last name, but
Speaker 1: she didn't want her name said over the radio. I
Speaker 1: just thought I would share Sarah. I didn't see that email,
Speaker 1: but I'll go back and see her. Juanita. I didn't
Speaker 1: see it, but I guess I can go back and look. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, do you want to find a Janita Rant?
Speaker 2: Sure?
Speaker 1: Okay, let me see if I can find it. I
Speaker 1: should have been ready as well.
Speaker 2: I'll have I have one thing to say about when
Speaker 2: you call out some kid for something like sometimes they
Speaker 2: need to hear it from somebody other than their parent
Speaker 2: in order to like act on it or you know,
Speaker 2: adjust themselves. Because when I worked for the Minnesota Historical Society,
Speaker 2: the teachers would be like, I've said this to these
Speaker 2: kids a thousand times, but now that you're saying it
Speaker 2: to them your brand new voice, so they're going to
Speaker 2: listen to you.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah that makes sense.
Speaker 2: It'll be like I'll trust it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, Needa, if you sent in a rant recently, I
Speaker 1: cannot find it and it could be that I accidentally
Speaker 1: hit the little garbage can icon, So send in another one.
Speaker 1: If you still got it, send in another one because
Speaker 1: we miss your rant. Sarah writes in Minnesota, goodbye, good
Speaker 1: Morning radio Friends. Was listen to the show mentioned real ID?
Speaker 1: He is correct. Go to your local DMV. You got
Speaker 1: to take a new picture. You need proof of citizenship
Speaker 1: two forms and two forms of proof of residents. Also,
Speaker 1: there's two real IDs enhanced a regular. Both can be
Speaker 1: used for air travel. The intensity enhances an extra fee,
Speaker 1: but it allows you to travel to Canada and Mexico,
Speaker 1: but it's not necessary if you don't travel there. If
Speaker 1: you end up traveling to those areas, then an additional
Speaker 1: passport is required cost maybe forty five bucks. Make an
Speaker 1: appointment online at your DMV. It can take up to
Speaker 1: two months wow to get your new card. Love y'all
Speaker 1: From Sarah the massage Therapist.
Speaker 2: I think I'm just going to get a new passport
Speaker 2: because my passport expired I think in January of last year,
Speaker 2: and not that. I mean when I got my passport
Speaker 2: ten years ago, I wanted to be a flight attendant,
Speaker 2: which is why I got it. I went on one
Speaker 2: international flight in the entire ten years that I had it,
Speaker 2: but hey, you never know. It's good for ten years,
Speaker 2: so I'll probably go on another international flight, maybe one
Speaker 2: in the next ten years.
Speaker 1: Why didn't the flight attendant thing work out?
Speaker 2: I didn't get hired.
Speaker 1: Oh you wanted to be, but they wouldn't hire you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't hire me. I mean I applied. I
Speaker 2: think I applied for two different airlines and they just
Speaker 2: didn't hire me. So, but you had to have a
Speaker 2: passport in order to apply.
Speaker 1: What do you think your shortcoming was?
Speaker 2: I don't know. Because I like wearing a little outfit.
Speaker 2: I would have worn heels if they needed me to.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I require you to anymore.
Speaker 2: Dwayne, back when I applied for it, Maybe I don't
Speaker 2: know why I didn't get it, but I just didn't
Speaker 2: I got I didn't get a lot of jobs that
Speaker 2: I applied for.
Speaker 1: Okay, I was gonna tell a story, but I've told
Speaker 1: it before and it's not that interesting, so I'm gonna
Speaker 1: move on. Akay, Hello Morning Show, my favorite crew. I'm
Speaker 1: back with another random question from Kristin. She was the
Speaker 1: one who wrote in about yesterday about how her pupils
Speaker 1: are not in the center of her eye. And she
Speaker 1: sends a picture, so I won't dwell on the picture.
Speaker 1: I'll show it to you later because we are an
Speaker 1: audio not a video content show. But she has a question,
Speaker 1: what is this song you skip immediately anytime it comes on?
Speaker 1: For me? It's Anything by Alison Chains. It's so boring. Next,
Speaker 1: off the top of my head, I would say Beyonce,
Speaker 1: and I don't dislike the I just don't like Beyonce.
Speaker 1: I realize she's like one of the world's biggest artists,
Speaker 1: but I'm just not a fan in the same way
Speaker 1: that some people might say, well, you know, if I
Speaker 1: hear a Beatles song, I'm gonna skip it. It doesn't
Speaker 1: mean you hate the Beatles. It just means it's not
Speaker 1: your thing. Yeah, So off the top of my head,
Speaker 1: I would say, op a tip a tip, Op a
Speaker 1: tip a tip. I skipped that. I've heard it too
Speaker 1: many times. And any Beyonce song I.
Speaker 2: I speaking of the Beatles Beatles during the Christmas season,
Speaker 2: I always skip War is over and simply having a
Speaker 2: wonderful Christmas time. Okay, I hate both of those songs.
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is about them, but I
Speaker 2: hate them both. So the second they come on, I
Speaker 2: switch the channel fair.
Speaker 1: Enough, and I would say, for me, it's rocking around
Speaker 1: the Christmas Tree. I've heard it a million times. I
Speaker 1: don't want to hear it again. I don't even like
Speaker 1: it that much. So what about you? That's an interesting question.
Speaker 1: Give me a list or a song or two. Send
Speaker 1: me an email. There's something everybody has you're going I
Speaker 1: want to write to the Minnesota goodbye. I want to
Speaker 1: hear my email on the radio, but I don't have
Speaker 1: anything to talk about. Everybody's got one. Jot a quick
Speaker 1: little note and let us and send it to Ryan's
Speaker 1: show at katwbat on com. What song you skip every
Speaker 1: time you hear it? Come on the radio. Let me
Speaker 1: see here. I've been behind on podcasting, but I heard
Speaker 1: a question you asked on the one January twenty third
Speaker 1: show of what you Do if a loved one dies
Speaker 1: far from home? Well, I can tell you my brother
Speaker 1: was in rehab in California in twenty fifteen and overdosed. Yes,
Speaker 1: while in rehabit their facility. Sorry to hear that. Anyway,
Speaker 1: we live in Ohio. We had to have his body
Speaker 1: flown back for burial. They put the body in storage
Speaker 1: beneath the plane. There's probably been several flights you've been
Speaker 1: on not knowing they're cargoing a body beneath Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: actually pretty common, Oh, because you know, people don't always
Speaker 1: get buried or the service where they die, so they
Speaker 1: fly it back home. Well, where do you put it?
Speaker 1: And you book it with United and they put it
Speaker 1: in the cargo area?
Speaker 2: Can you you might know this answer? Can you explain
Speaker 2: what the cargo area looks like? Because I know you
Speaker 2: put like pets down in the cargo area as well,
Speaker 2: and I just assume it's like rounded, like a plane
Speaker 2: and you just toss things into it. So I can't
Speaker 2: imagine just a body being down there with dogs.
Speaker 1: I don't think that the baggage goes in the same
Speaker 1: compartment as dogs, because the baggage area is not pressurized. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: So pressurized means there's oxygen and equal pressure. So in
Speaker 1: other words, they it's kind of like the cabin is
Speaker 1: pressurized because they pressurize the cabin they close the doors,
Speaker 1: and then that's why, because if it didn't, your ears
Speaker 1: would pop mercilessly as you flew up to thirty eight
Speaker 1: thousand feet. So it's pressurized with oxygen, so the air
Speaker 1: pressure feels about the same as it does on the ground.
Speaker 1: Your ears still pop once in a while. But in
Speaker 1: the baggage section, your suitcase doesn't need to be pressurized.
Speaker 1: But if there's a dog or a cat down there,
Speaker 1: there's I believe, a special compartment that is pressurized.
Speaker 2: What does it look like, do you know?
Speaker 1: And I've never been in one.
Speaker 2: Don't person down there? No, no, no, So those dogs
Speaker 2: and cats and everything are just down there.
Speaker 1: A lot a lot of people don't want to fly
Speaker 1: their pets in the pressurized pet.
Speaker 2: Compartment, but buy an extra seat, have them sit next
Speaker 2: to me.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't you know, I see all the time.
Speaker 1: I travel about once every six weeks to Colorado or somewhere.
Speaker 1: I see dogs in airports all the time, and a
Speaker 1: lot of them. A lot of airlines are cracked down
Speaker 1: on the service animal thing, yeah, because people would go
Speaker 1: on Amazon and they'd buy a service animal vest for
Speaker 1: their dog that has absolutely no service animal training, and
Speaker 1: they would take on an airplane. Because you used to
Speaker 1: not be able to ask, like if I work for
Speaker 1: American Airlines, yeah, I can't say, excuse me, ma'am, is
Speaker 1: that really a service dog?
Speaker 2: Yeah, we couldn't ask when we worked at the museum. Yeah,
Speaker 2: really a museum.
Speaker 1: So I think a lot of people took advantage of that,
Speaker 1: and now I think it has I don't know, maybe
Speaker 1: somebody who works for an airline or has a genuine
Speaker 1: service dog. But it always kind of irked me when
Speaker 1: you would see a dog that was not a service.
Speaker 2: Dog pulling on the leash, right, yeah, pulling.
Speaker 1: Around and like, you know, sniffing at other people's fast
Speaker 1: food and.
Speaker 2: So unlikely.
Speaker 1: You know, I've flown a dog under, you know, in
Speaker 1: the cargo department before compartment, and they say that it's miserable,
Speaker 1: it's loud, and it's colds and kiddies.
Speaker 2: I guess that's kind I guess that's kind of freaky.
Speaker 2: But I get I get it.
Speaker 1: Uh, and I believe honestly, I think that's it. I
Speaker 1: think we're out of Minnesota Goodbye emails already, all right?
Speaker 2: People need to email us. Then it sounds like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let us know what you what is on your mind,
Speaker 1: because we'd love to get you on the Minnesota Goodbye.
Speaker 1: Whether you want to send an email or I mean
Speaker 1: that's the main way to get a hold of us,
Speaker 1: or you have something you want to bring up or
Speaker 1: a topic, because really that is the heart of the show.
Speaker 1: Is there anything else that we want to bring up
Speaker 1: that we can't bring up on the radio?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got I got a picture here. You want
Speaker 2: to see this picture. It's it's boobies.
Speaker 1: Whose boobies are those?
Speaker 2: Oh? It's yeah, I don't know. It's it's a headless woman,
Speaker 2: but she's got boobies.
Speaker 1: Here is her head cut off?
Speaker 2: No, it just the picture doesn't show it.
Speaker 1: It doesn't do anything for me.
Speaker 2: Boobies Dave hold on the bus Driver's coming.
Speaker 1: Okay, you're ridiculous. What are you? Fourteen?
Speaker 2: Called a call back, It's called a callback to what
Speaker 2: was happening at the beginning of this podcast where you
Speaker 2: said we're a couple of fifteen year old boys on
Speaker 2: the bus. This is an improv tactic. It's called a
Speaker 2: call back. You know what.
Speaker 1: It's funny back because back in when I was in
Speaker 1: broadcasting school, we called it familiar open, familiar clothes. Oh,
Speaker 1: and then it's kind of the same thing because if
Speaker 1: you watch the news, they'll establish a shot of Frank
Speaker 1: Vassilero and Amelia Santanello, like you know, with a camera
Speaker 1: above the newsroom floor with a broad shot of a
Speaker 1: million Frank, and then that's the open. And then at
Speaker 1: the end they will close the news by saying good night,
Speaker 1: We'll see.
Speaker 2: You tomorrow, and then go back to that shot, go back.
Speaker 1: To that shot, familiar open, familiar clothes. And that is
Speaker 1: something that I didn't know extended to other things, called
Speaker 1: a callback.
Speaker 2: We do it in improv all the time. People love
Speaker 2: a callback.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that.
Speaker 2: I learned show today black it at once, and then
Speaker 2: you bring it back later. People will be like, oh
Speaker 2: my gosh, I remember when they said that the first time.
Speaker 1: That because we did say we were like a couple
Speaker 1: of fifteen year old boys on a school bus bus.
Speaker 1: What were we talking about?
Speaker 2: That this show is spicy, that we can but not
Speaker 2: but not dirty?
Speaker 1: Yeah, because dirty is like what boys say on the bus, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I saw my sister naked in the bathroom last night.
Speaker 2: That creepy Dave.
Speaker 1: Well, that's a bad exing. And that with that with
Speaker 1: a Minnesota goodbye. I love your emails. Please send to
