WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:03.879 Well, you're ready to do the Minnesota Goodbye? Yeah, okay, 2 00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.719 we're loaded up on cookies because staff writer Breed came 3 00:00:06.759 --> 00:00:09.480 by with some crumble cookies for my birthday. And I'm 4 00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:11.400 not as sweet. What have I said a million times? 5 00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:14.080 I'm not a sweet person. No, my kids hate me 6 00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:16.359 saying that, and I say it just to annoy them. Dad, 7 00:00:16.399 --> 00:00:18.519 you want a cookie. I'm not a sweet person. But 8 00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:22.160 there's a part in my book Bailey J where I say, 9 00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.480 when a child offers you cookies that they made, you 10 00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:27.480 fucking take that cookie and you tell them, and you 11 00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:29.879 tell them how great it was. If you're you know, 12 00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:32.960 if your niece or nephew made brownies and they look 13 00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:35.359 like shit and they're raw around the edges and burnt 14 00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:37.000 in the middle, and they got a fucking thumb print 15 00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:39.240 of pubic hair on the top of them, you take 16 00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:41.240 that pubic hair and you fucking eat that thing. 17 00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:42.399 WHOA. 18 00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:45.079 I don't know where a six year old would get 19 00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.880 I don't know exactly a hair or a cat hair instead, 20 00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:52.320 But but I mean, think about how if you know 21 00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:54.479 it's in my book because I think that I ran 22 00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.479 across that one time where some little kid had made 23 00:00:57.479 --> 00:00:59.880 cookies and I'm like, yeah, i'll have one later, and 24 00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:03.719 her face fell. And so the other day, Ava, who 25 00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:09.000 is four, that's Alison's daughter, decorated a little round pancake, 26 00:01:09.159 --> 00:01:11.799 you know, and she not a pancake but a pan cake. 27 00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:15.640 And she, you know, helped mix the batter and poured 28 00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:17.359 it in and then they baked it. And then she 29 00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:20.000 picked out the color of frosting and some red jelly 30 00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:23.480 other frosting and some sprinkles, and she was so proud 31 00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.640 of it. She's like, Pepa, I made you a cake. 32 00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:30.799 And I don't like cake. No cake is dull, but 33 00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:33.560 I ate the fuck out of that cake. And I 34 00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:36.079 told Ava how great it was, and she was so 35 00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:37.000 proud and she's like. 36 00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:39.200 Yeah, and I helped. There's like eggshells in it, and 37 00:01:39.239 --> 00:01:41.640 I'm like, this is so good, so crunchy. 38 00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:45.159 H Here comes an email from Sydney, who is a 39 00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.799 regular staff writer. Dave, I'm curious to know how the 40 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.400 relationship with Gary started and why does the morning show 41 00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:54.920 for you for free? Okay, So we met Gary years ago, 42 00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:59.159 like maybe twenty five or so years ago, because we 43 00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.719 used to have a psychic named Allen Cunningham and Allen 44 00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.359 was a dear old lady that I'm sure she's gone 45 00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:10.039 now because this was so long ago, and a l E. N. E. 46 00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:15.719 Cunningham and she was really good, but then she lost 47 00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:19.800 her fast pitcht lost her fastball. 48 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.680 Sure and lovely, she looks beautiful. 49 00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:23.520 Is she still around? 50 00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:27.159 I can't. Oh nope. She died in twenty sixteen at 51 00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:27.879 ninety four. 52 00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:31.080 Oh wow wow. And she was so sweet, but she 53 00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:35.639 seemed confused and her son was I thought that it 54 00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:37.520 was like, okay, he needs to let her retire, but 55 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:40.199 that was his meal ticket, so he would bring her 56 00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:44.199 around to the radio station, and so we stopped using her. 57 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:47.080 And then somebody told me about Gary Spivey. And I 58 00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:49.520 remember the first time Gary Spivey got off the elevator 59 00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:51.039 and we looked at him and I thought he was 60 00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:56.680 wearing an inflatable plastic, inflatable football helmet, because that's what 61 00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:59.080 my mind told me, right exactly, And because he has 62 00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:03.199 this big white wig and he gets off the elevator, 63 00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:04.960 I look at him and and my mind was like, 64 00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:07.960 inflatable plastic football helmet. Yes, No, that's his hair. And 65 00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:11.000 it's gotten bigger and more outrageous every year he does 66 00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:15.719 the show for free because we plug his eight hundred number, 67 00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:18.719 so in exchange for him being on, we give his 68 00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:20.599 number and to say go get a reading, and so 69 00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:26.280 he charges for readings, so and people love him a 70 00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:29.199 You've also mentioned, Dave you're skeptical about psychics, but also 71 00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:31.879 you've also say you've confide it a lot in Gary. 72 00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.759 So which is it? It's both? 73 00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:37.199 I mean, I feel like you can you can still 74 00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:40.199 be skeptic of what they're saying to you because they 75 00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:43.560 don't have like proof, so you can still like be skeptic. 76 00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:45.360 But then if they say something that you connect with, 77 00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:46.400 you can still believe that. 78 00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:48.919 Yeah. Yeah, And I think I've told the story a 79 00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:50.639 million times. I'm not going to tell it again about 80 00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:52.840 my dad dying and Susan and that type of thing 81 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:55.039 and how Gary nailed that. So that gives me some 82 00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:58.639 faith in Gary. But I would not personally pay to 83 00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:00.719 go see a psychic. But when Gary comes in and 84 00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.759 I ask him something about something deeply personal, and Gary, 85 00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:06.319 like I said, there's been things I've talked about Gary 86 00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:11.039 that are deeply personal, and Gary knows about the thing 87 00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.199 that was, you know, like in twenty twelve that was 88 00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:17.120 very very awful and upsetting to me, and so Gary 89 00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:21.560 knows about that, and so but I mean Gary comes 90 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:24.680 in and you're like, you know, you make conversation Gary, 91 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:27.959 tell me should I move to Toronto? You know that 92 00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:29.759 type of thing. Yeah, doesn't mean you're going to like 93 00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:30.800 write it down and. 94 00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:31.759 You know what exactly? 95 00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:35.120 It's always like, you know, believe what resonates with you. 96 00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:39.199 But here's a good question. What would you ask Gary 97 00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:43.839 Spivey if you knew his answer would be the correct 98 00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:52.759 answer accurate? So I will start Gary, how what do 99 00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.959 you see me doing in the next like five or 100 00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:59.160 ten years career wise? Because I'd really be curious to 101 00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:01.399 know what I should should do? What should I do? 102 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:03.839 Not what I should what will I be doing? Because 103 00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:05.480 he might say, well, you're gonna get fired to work 104 00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:07.959 at TSA, Yeah, but what should I be doing? What 105 00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:09.360 would you ask Gary man? 106 00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:12.480 Can it be kind of can I copy you? Because honestly, 107 00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:15.120 I do want to know. I guess like, I'd like 108 00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:18.279 to know if my career goes off in a way 109 00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:21.319 that I can afford to buy a house, because I 110 00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:23.519 would love to have a house someday. I would love 111 00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:26.959 to have I don't know, a yard, a deck, I 112 00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:29.160 wonder if Gary can tell me whether or not I 113 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:31.600 will ever have a deck with twinkly lights on it. 114 00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:33.319 Okay, Jenny, what about you? 115 00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:35.600 Will I ever move to a state that I dream 116 00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:36.399 about living. 117 00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:40.199 In, like Oregon, Washington, Colorado. 118 00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:43.439 Wyoming, Pacific Northwest Ish or Colorado? 119 00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:44.439 Probably? Yeah? 120 00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:51.240 Okay, next one, this is from Don't Say My Name. 121 00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:53.639 Thanks for putting that up front. I was listening to 122 00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:56.360 the Minnesota Goodbye podcast talking about dating people with the 123 00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:59.319 same name as your family members. I briefly dated a 124 00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:02.759 guy in college with the same first and last name 125 00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:07.639 as my dad. So, what is your dad's first and last. 126 00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:09.439 Name, Jenny, Glenn Lutenberger? 127 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.439 Glenn Lutenberger, So can you imagine dating a guy named 128 00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:15.639 Glenn lutenbergerg what's your dad's first and last name? Greg 129 00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:18.519 has Greg Hes, So could you ever imagine dating named 130 00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:19.319 Greg Hess? 131 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:20.920 I think it'd be cool if I dated somebody with 132 00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:22.360 the last name of Hess, but it would be weird 133 00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:23.160 if his name was Greg. 134 00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:26.079 I honestly didn't think it was that weird because I 135 00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:28.959 don't call my dad by his first name. Okay, so 136 00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.680 there's that. The ridicule I got from my friends was 137 00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:35.519 less not one of my finer decisions I made as 138 00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:37.480 a twenty one year old, but I have no regrets 139 00:06:37.519 --> 00:06:39.439 because it makes for a funny story ten years later. 140 00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:42.319 Just had to share this with you guys.

She does not send 150 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:07.439 a video rant this week, but I think I haven't 151 00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:09.319 pre read it, but I have faith in Anita that 152 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:12.040 it'll be an entertaining Still going to send my end 153 00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:13.759 of the week RAMT, but wanted to get an opinion 154 00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:16.160 on a situation that just went down involving my son. 155 00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:20.040 He is fifteen and has always been a very respectful 156 00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:22.439 kid that's never given me any problems except for the 157 00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:25.920 fact that he couldn't sweep or mop to save his soul. Lol. 158 00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:28.240 He's got a couple of friends that he hangs out with, 159 00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.759 regularly at the YMCA, but there's one in particular that 160 00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:33.079 kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Sure as shit, 161 00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:36.519 yesterday I got a call from the Onoka County Sheriff's 162 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.879 office saying there's a situation at the WHY involving my 163 00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:43.759 son and his friends. Come to find out, that little 164 00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:46.839 shit that I didn't trust in the beginning, stole another 165 00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:53.360 kid's headphones. He had an excuse, I thought they were mine. 166 00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:55.680 My son and his other friends said, they told him, dude, 167 00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:59.240 those aren't yours, but he didn't listen. The kid that 168 00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:01.959 owned the headphone told his parents and they called the police. 169 00:08:02.040 --> 00:08:04.160 Now here's the part where I ask, should I be 170 00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:05.600 pissed or what? Was this the right thing to do? 171 00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:06.360 So? 172 00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:08.399 Because all the boys were together, and even though they 173 00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:11.160 know exactly who took the headphones, they are all banned 174 00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:14.519 from the WHY for a period of one year. They 175 00:08:14.600 --> 00:08:18.839 even said, though my son didn't nicely participate in the theft, 176 00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:22.319 he's at fault because he didn't do anything to prevent it. 177 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:25.399 I mean, really, he's fucking fifteen years old. What the 178 00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:27.279 fuck did they want him to do? Tack a little 179 00:08:27.319 --> 00:08:29.879 asshole to the floor and say, don't take those damn headphones. 180 00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:32.200 So should I be pissed at the why for banning 181 00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:34.320 my son or should they have done that? Thoughts please, 182 00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:35.919 I'm going to come down to the side of the why, 183 00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:39.000 but I could be convinced otherwise. I could be persuaded 184 00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:42.039 otherwise because I think it's a good lesson for your 185 00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:46.000 son that fucking a there are some consequences. And also, 186 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:49.519 don't hang out with little assholes because your friends become 187 00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:52.759 your luck. I'll say it again, your friends become your luck. 188 00:08:53.000 --> 00:08:55.080 You hang out with little asshole all of a sudden, 189 00:08:55.200 --> 00:08:58.679 wall fuck, I lost my backpack. Ah, fuck I missed 190 00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:01.320 the bus. I'll fuck I was late for school because 191 00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:04.679 your friends become your luck, and you'll blame it on anything. 192 00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:07.919 Oh I missed the bus. Well, my alarm didn't go off. 193 00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:11.840 Your friends become your luck. So this kid's friend, if 194 00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:14.679 your son hangs out with him, it's not going to 195 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:18.600 be good for your son. And you might be like, well, 196 00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:20.679 he's kind of got a rough life and his parents 197 00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.720 are shit. Not your problem. I would say, I'm not glad, 198 00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:28.960 but I think it's good your son realizes by hanging 199 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:32.759 out with a little fuck that he will not go 200 00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:34.960 to the why for a year. So what do you 201 00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:35.440 guys think. 202 00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:37.960 Well, I would say that it's really hard to convince 203 00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:40.120 a kid not to hang out with someone, though, because 204 00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:42.279 my mom did not like a couple of my friends 205 00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:44.960 and they were still my quote unquote best friends throughout 206 00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:48.120 all of my years. And it took me to like 207 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.440 college to really understand how bad of influences certain people are, 208 00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:54.960 or if they're like not a good person. But when 209 00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:56.759 you're in school, you just want to hang out with 210 00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:59.279 the people that you like, have fun with, and yeah, 211 00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:02.080 they might like trouble making things like that, but outside 212 00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:04.399 of that, I'm sure like that kid is having fun 213 00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:06.679 with the other one, you know, that's why he's hanging 214 00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:08.559 out with them. Yeah, so I think it's very hard 215 00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:11.159 to convince a kid not to hang out with someone 216 00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:14.240 because their trouble. My mom always thought my best friend 217 00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:16.960 Carissa was a bad influence, but I was the one 218 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:19.679 who was underage drinking. My friend Chrissa didn't even care 219 00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:21.519 about drinking and she didn't even want to drink. And 220 00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:24.000 she always thought Chrisa was the bad one because she 221 00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:27.519 was loud and she just was like kind of put 222 00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:29.960 off by her. And then my mom realized she's a 223 00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:32.840 good person. She just wasn't like she's just loud and 224 00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:36.200 a little bit wild in that way. But my mom 225 00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:38.120 always thought she was the reason I was like drinking 226 00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:40.159 and stuff. But I was the reason I was drinking. 227 00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:43.639 I understand that. Yeah, would you have changed your mind 228 00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:47.720 about Carissa if she stole? Would you look back and go, yeah, 229 00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:49.240 she stole, she was a bad person. 230 00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:49.679 I would. 231 00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:51.960 I would look back on like certain things like that 232 00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:54.559 because I was at least like a moral Well you 233 00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:56.519 could maybe argue against that since I said I was 234 00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:59.600 underage drinking, but I had good morals for the most part, 235 00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:03.080 grow up and so certain in a situation like that, yeah, 236 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:06.240 I probably would know the difference between hanging out with 237 00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:09.279 someone who's stealing versus just like someone loud. 238 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:12.679 I think the fact that the kids stole while his 239 00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:15.399 friends said those aren't yours, or at least that's what 240 00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:19.480 they claim, and then the little asshole said I thought 241 00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:23.240 they were mine and couldn't even apologize and couldn't even 242 00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:25.279 come clean and say, yeah, you know what, I shouldn't 243 00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:27.120 have done that. So here's a kid that I'm going 244 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:30.360 to make a prediction that in this is what I've 245 00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:34.320 said before, the trouble kids get into when they're five 246 00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:37.919 is cute. It's adorable. Yeah, they put like I don't know, 247 00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:40.919 they poured baking powder all over the carpet. It's adorable. 248 00:11:42.279 --> 00:11:46.639 When they're ten, it's not so adorable. It's troublesome. Like 249 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:48.840 they got into a fight at school and punched a kid. 250 00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:52.279 The trouble they get into at fifteen is either illegal 251 00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:56.200 or dangerous. Here we go, kid's fifteen years old. It's illegal. 252 00:11:56.840 --> 00:11:59.200 So and I don't see that kid. Honestly, I don't 253 00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:01.279 see Hi getting ay better, and it's not worth get 254 00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:04.120 rolling the dice on. But you're right, Jenny, good luck 255 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:05.720 getting him to hang not hang out with that kid. 256 00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:08.039 Yeah, I feel like I wonder if you can divert 257 00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:10.240 your son because I'm trying to think of like a 258 00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:13.320 solution for it, And like, is your son interested in 259 00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:15.000 any after school activities? 260 00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:15.679 A sports? 261 00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:18.200 Well, he goes the why. So there's like basketball, so 262 00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:18.840 he goes the why. 263 00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:20.720 But then he goes the why with his ship friend. 264 00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:23.159 So like, how can we get him away from the 265 00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:24.759 ship friend without making it seem like. 266 00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:27.320 Shit in my house? Similar to my house, I'll take 267 00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:29.039 care of him I was just like, kid. 268 00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:32.080 If you get your son to meet other people and 269 00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:35.360 make other friends, then the shit kid is just going 270 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.200 to slowly, you know, not be as you know, prevalent 271 00:12:39.279 --> 00:12:40.200 in his life anymore. 272 00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:42.799 So try and divert if possible. 273 00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:44.840 Because if I feel like, if you tell a kid 274 00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:46.639 not to do something, they're gonna do it even harder. 275 00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:48.360 So if you say you can't hang out with your 276 00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:51.440 ship friend, he's gonna be like, Okay, I'm gonna run away. 277 00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:53.039 We're not going to hang out with my ship friend 278 00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:53.600 all the time. 279 00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:56.960 Yeah, very interesting, Monny, Thanks for that and good luck. 280 00:12:57.000 --> 00:12:59.919 I would be curious to know. I bet I don't know. 281 00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:03.159 I'm on the side of the YMCA because they're serious 282 00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:06.320 about this and there are consequences. I think it'll be good. 283 00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:09.360 Next one. Don't same a name first rhyme writer. I 284 00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:11.240 want first time writer. I want to start out by 285 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.120 saying I've been listening since twenty twenty one. I love 286 00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:16.480 the show. The addition of Vaunt and Bailey perfectly fits 287 00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:20.600 into the show. On to my topic backstory, my parents 288 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:22.879 got divorced when I was younger, and my mom never 289 00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:24.840 got rid of her ring. I now have an amazing 290 00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:27.960 girlfriend who I plan on proposing to in the future. 291 00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:31.759 So mom got divorced and she still has the ring. 292 00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:34.879 A few months ago, my mom offered me that ring 293 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.480 from her relationship with my dad to use to propose 294 00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:40.000 to my new girlfriend. I'm not sure if I want 295 00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:41.320 to use it or not. I feel like it'd be 296 00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:44.000 a little weird to use that ring from my parents' relationship, 297 00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:45.440 But on the other hand, it'd be nice to save 298 00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:47.639 a bunch of money on a new ring. I'll be 299 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:49.919 able to customize the ring, so it's not the exact 300 00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:54.120 same ring, but still it'd be the same ring. She'll 301 00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:56.039 probably pawn the ring if I don't take it, but 302 00:13:56.039 --> 00:13:58.240 I'm not sure if my girlfriend would find this weird 303 00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:02.360 or not. I'm curious what your thoughts are on this one. Me, No, 304 00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:05.679 don't use the ring. You already answered your own question 305 00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:09.240 by saying you feel funny about it. There's your answer, Jenny. 306 00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:13.000 No, do not use that ring? Bad juju uh uh? 307 00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:15.000 I would I would toucher. 308 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.480 Yeah, I would never accept my mom's ring if she 309 00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:20.200 offered that to me because her and my dad had 310 00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:21.159 a bad relationship. 311 00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:24.080 So no, Bailey, and I'm just gonna agree with you. 312 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:26.879 Both you said everything that needed to be said about it. 313 00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:29.440 Yeah, I think that just because you feel bad about it, 314 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:31.559 there's your answer right there. Yeah, you'll save some money, 315 00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:35.159 but in ten years that money won't matter. I know 316 00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:35.480 what I mean. 317 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:37.799 It is the stone for it. Maybe you could just recess. 318 00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:39.919 I say no to all events. 319 00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:42.039 See, I think even a resetting is it is a 320 00:14:42.039 --> 00:14:44.240 brand new ring and then it's yours, and then you 321 00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:46.240 have something that belonged to your mother that you wear 322 00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:47.120 around with you. 323 00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:50.240 Yeah, but mom probably has other kind of jewels that 324 00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:55.159 he could give to his future fiance that would be 325 00:14:55.320 --> 00:14:56.320 like more sentimental. 326 00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:03.399 Here's one that I have not pre read, but let's 327 00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:05.320 see what we have. It's a little bit longer. And 328 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:07.799 we always hesitate on the longer ones because sometimes we 329 00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:10.600 get into it and we realize that it's just too 330 00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:13.600 long and it's not the best, most interesting. But I'm 331 00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:16.919 going to give it a chance. Just binge listening to 332 00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:20.559 the Minnesota Goodbye on iHeartRadio while working from home. Definitely 333 00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:23.399 being super productive. Longtime listener all the way back to 334 00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:26.679 Dave Lee and Pat days. I love that I can 335 00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:28.879 always count on the day Ryan showed to brighten my morning. 336 00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:32.240 So I so appreciate that. Well, whether or not this 337 00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:34.080 is on air worthy, I wanted to reach out to 338 00:15:34.080 --> 00:15:36.600 the woman who wrote in about her mom having recently 339 00:15:36.639 --> 00:15:41.320 diagnosed with ALS. This is on October fifteenth. My mom 340 00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:44.639 passed in twenty fifteen from lou Garrig's disease for more 341 00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:48.120 than five years. Thankfully, my family was able to provide 342 00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:51.360 care for her in our home until she passed. Please 343 00:15:51.399 --> 00:15:54.279 tell her to look into the ALS Association of Minnesota. 344 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:56.799 If you remember the ice Bucking challenge, it's the same thing. 345 00:15:57.039 --> 00:15:59.879 They have so many resources for people diagnosed with ALS. 346 00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:05.240 And with that said, if you want to, you're welcome 347 00:16:05.240 --> 00:16:07.720 to give her my email if she ever wants to connect. 348 00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:12.399 I love the community sometimes on the Minnesota Goodbye because 349 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:15.320 somebody will hear something about this and they'll be like, oh, 350 00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:17.720 I went through the same thing. If she ever wants 351 00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:20.720 to reach out to me, let her know so if 352 00:16:20.720 --> 00:16:24.000 she reaches back, and I will give her your email. 353 00:16:24.399 --> 00:16:26.320 Thanks for all that you guys do.

There's 357 00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:43.039 one more, one more, one more, Hello Dave, Jenny Bailey Vaught, 358 00:16:43.480 --> 00:16:46.799 even though he's not there. A writer from Tuesday's heavy 359 00:16:46.879 --> 00:16:54.240 Load Minnesota Goodbye mentioned the Office Cast watchback podcast and 360 00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:56.240 they said they wish Breaking Bad or Parks and Rec 361 00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:58.679 had one. I don't know about Breaking Bad, but Parks 362 00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:01.840 and Rec has one called Parks and Recollection. 363 00:17:02.159 --> 00:17:02.919 Oh that's cute. 364 00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:05.480 It's very clever. I haven't listened to it personally, but 365 00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:08.960 I know of it being promoted through Conan Conan's Team 366 00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:12.799 Coco podcasts. No need for a staff writer sticker. I 367 00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:15.400 got one already for a brief funny story. In a 368 00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:17.480 past email, I had one of my employers listed in 369 00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:21.680 my email signature, no addresses for them, but apparently the 370 00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:25.119 address looked and mailed was looked up and mailed to 371 00:17:25.160 --> 00:17:28.519 me through my work. I also don't work there. Okay, 372 00:17:28.559 --> 00:17:30.480 you lost me. I'm sorry. I'm probably read it wrong, 373 00:17:30.559 --> 00:17:34.039 but thank you very much. From Peter, he says, thanks 374 00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:40.119 ah Rt dart Lick.

I think give you listen 377 00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:47.160 to the Minnesota Goodbye. You probably know by now because 378 00:17:47.160 --> 00:17:49.400 we've explained it so many times. I know we get 379 00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:51.559 new listeners, so maybe ever once in a while we 380 00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:55.079 got a we got a mom butt in there once 381 00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:55.519 a quarter. 382 00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:59.119 All right, well, all right, if you don't know what 383 00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:02.880 dart lick means, it is our usual. It's kind of 384 00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:05.519 like the behind the scenes secret code word of the 385 00:18:05.559 --> 00:18:08.640 Minnesota goodbye. And I'm not going to tell you now, 386 00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:09.880 but send me an email if you don't know what 387 00:18:09.960 --> 00:18:12.039 it means. We'll see how many emails we get. And 388 00:18:12.079 --> 00:18:17.519 then the all right comes from the chef at Old 389 00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:21.680 Country Buffet in the classic like nineteen eighty nine training video. 390 00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:23.960 He's cutting off a slice of beef and he's like, 391 00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:26.440 do you want that thick or thin? I'll have it thick. 392 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:31.400 Oh right, what do you like hot fudge Sundays?
