Speaker 1: Well, Bailey just stepped out of the room. Oh, here
Speaker 1: she comes. All right, we're going to start to Minnesota. Goodbye,
Speaker 1: and here we go. So later today, I'm lucky enough
Speaker 1: to get to go to that. I think I told
Speaker 1: you yesterday. I have the heart scan and the calcium
Speaker 1: monitor and all that stuff. And I hope that they
Speaker 1: don't do the the what is it when they stick
Speaker 1: the needle in the ivy in the back of your hand.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, I think they do, because I
Speaker 1: think they have to put the blue dye or something
Speaker 1: in your heart and your lungs and whatever. Oh, I
Speaker 1: don't know, but I've had it done before, and I
Speaker 1: think that they stick a needle in your in your hand,
Speaker 1: and I have very thin skin on the back of
Speaker 1: my See you got fatty little on the back of
Speaker 1: your hands there you have a lot of skin and cushion.
Speaker 1: I got nothing but skin and like bones, nothing, there's
Speaker 1: nothing there. And so they're digging around from my vein
Speaker 1: under there. I hate it. I hate the feel of
Speaker 1: a like a thing in my vein. And then you
Speaker 1: get to go in the little like an MRI booth
Speaker 1: or whatever, and then they start scanning. Yeah, that's my.
Speaker 2: Day to day MRI booth and everything.
Speaker 1: See, I don't mind MRIs. A lot of people are
Speaker 1: like they freak out because you're in it. You ever
Speaker 1: had an MRI, Jenny, No, I am.
Speaker 3: So terrified the day I have to have one, though happens.
Speaker 3: Why Because it's just something that I know would give
Speaker 3: me anxiety. I would feel claustrophobic. I would start like panicking,
Speaker 3: and I know you got to just like, don't you
Speaker 3: have to just sit still for like like.
Speaker 1: A thirty minute hour? Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I would hate it.
Speaker 1: I've actually fallen asleep during my MRIs.
Speaker 3: There's two different types of people I think that get MRIs.
Speaker 3: It's you who fall asleep and me who is like
Speaker 3: having a panic attack.
Speaker 1: Well, I think that you know that you're going into
Speaker 1: a tube. You're sliding in on a little table that
Speaker 1: you go into the tube, and there's a lot of
Speaker 1: thumping and a lot of noise. But I just close
Speaker 1: my eyes and forget that I'm in a tube, and
Speaker 1: then my mind tells me, well, I've got my eyes closed,
Speaker 1: I can't see that I'm enclosed, and then I might
Speaker 1: as well be in you know, just on a table
Speaker 1: in an open room. Yeah, so it doesn't bother one
Speaker 1: never had one?
Speaker 2: No, I don't want one.
Speaker 1: Well, no, nobody wants one. Yeah, here we go, Hello Dave,
Speaker 1: Ryan Crue from Hannah. A question directed toward day but
Speaker 1: really all can answer. Under what context? Would you call
Speaker 1: your child the C word or a bitch in a literal,
Speaker 1: non joking way, Just asking because my dad called me
Speaker 1: these names, and I was just wondering, as a dad
Speaker 1: to two daughters, would you ever call your daughter that?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Well, no, that is a bad dad. I did say
Speaker 1: once to Carson, fuck you Carson. And that was about
Speaker 1: a year ago. And I've told this story before on
Speaker 1: the podcast because I get so mad at Carson because
Speaker 1: he's so noncommunicative sometimes, and so, you know, I'm a
Speaker 1: dad and I want to talk to my son and
Speaker 1: so he's out on the patio and he's wearing some
Speaker 1: colorful pair of pants and I'm like, Carson, what's up
Speaker 1: with your pants? And I said, let me see him
Speaker 1: and he goes their pants and I said, fuck you, Carson,
Speaker 1: and I stormed inside and I was so mad because
Speaker 1: this wasn't this is like after a childhood of one
Speaker 1: word answers and he's now twenty three. He turns twenty
Speaker 1: four on April first, and is like, make conversation, you know,
Speaker 1: like i'd be in Colorado and I call him, like, Hey,
Speaker 1: put Carson on the phone. Hey buddy, what are you doing? Nothing?
Speaker 1: What have you been doing all day? Nothing? All right? Cool?
Speaker 1: All right? So you doing anything this weekend? No? And
Speaker 1: I god, fuck a, just fucking give me something. So
Speaker 1: but I would never call my daughter or my son
Speaker 1: the sea word or a bitch, not even I might
Speaker 1: say bath of your Oh, Beth, you're a bitch. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I would never say the sea word. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: not a funny joke. And I would never say I
Speaker 1: might say to Alison, oh, Alison's being a little bitch today,
Speaker 1: and she would laugh. But no, for your dad, no
Speaker 1: good dad would never call his daughter or his wife
Speaker 1: a bitch or a sea word.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and no, that's yeah.
Speaker 2: My dad has never called me those things. Sorry that
Speaker 2: your dad is that that's a bummer. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: My favorite swear word is fuck. And I don't believe
Speaker 1: in acupuncture either. Absolutely love everything you guys do, all right,
Speaker 1: From Hannah, I needed to write about my experience as
Speaker 1: Caitlin about with a hypnotist because we were talking about
Speaker 1: hypnosis at our post prom in high school. We would
Speaker 1: have a hypnotist come and do a show where we
Speaker 1: could volunteer to be hypnotized. I volunteered the whole time.
Speaker 1: I consciously knew what was going on, but I couldn't
Speaker 1: tell myself to do anything other than what he was
Speaker 1: saying to do. At one point, he said, stand up
Speaker 1: in front of the audience. Imagine you're at a petting
Speaker 1: zoo and everybody in the audience is an animal. I
Speaker 1: opened my eyes, I saw all of my friends in
Speaker 1: the audience, and I started sobbing hysterically. I remember making
Speaker 1: eye contact with one of my friends, who in my
Speaker 1: mind was now a goat at a petting zoo.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: He had to walk me back to my chair and
Speaker 1: put me under for the remainder of time because I
Speaker 1: was so traumatized. It was the weirdest experience. Whoa, whoa,
Speaker 1: it is right. Then she goes on to say, I've
Speaker 1: always had an issue with sleeping growing up. I would
Speaker 1: sleep walk and almost have the same experience. I'd walk
Speaker 1: around my room in the middle of the night and
Speaker 1: tell myself to go back to sleep. I knew it
Speaker 1: was the middle of the night, but my brain wouldn't
Speaker 1: let me and would continue to walk around. So the
Speaker 1: hypnotist was a very similar experience to sleepwalking for me. Anyway,
Speaker 1: Thanks for being awesome, Caitlin.
Speaker 2: I wondered could we talk about that on like the
Speaker 2: regular show too, about people who've been hypnotized. I think
Speaker 2: that's fascinating.
Speaker 1: People, because that is.
Speaker 2: An interesting story. And now I want to know from
Speaker 2: anyone else who's been hypnotized. If there is a lot
Speaker 2: of people. Maybe there is not. I don't know.
Speaker 1: That's well, maybe we can write that down and bring
Speaker 1: that up, is like we can do. Is it's an
Speaker 1: old radio bit. Is anybody listening who has been genuinely hypnotized? Right?
Speaker 2: Because this person sounds like that's been genuinely hypnotized genuinely.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 2: Cool, it also sounds traumatic in general.
Speaker 1: I'm going to bring this up because she talked about sleeping.
Speaker 1: I'm listening to a podcast called The Backstory, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna find it for you. She's a radio woman out
Speaker 1: of New York and she's got the most amazing delivery
Speaker 1: and voice. Okay, give me one second, because it's there's
Speaker 1: short little episodes like eight or nine minutes. The backstory
Speaker 1: with Patty Steele. And Patty Steele is like a New
Speaker 1: York rock DJ, and she's probably, I don't know, got
Speaker 1: to be in her fifties. She's been around forever and
Speaker 1: she's just got this really cool voice. And she did
Speaker 1: an episode yesterday. I was down at Snap Fitness. I'm
Speaker 1: on the treadmill or the stair stepper, and she's talking
Speaker 1: about how did we sleep before the light bulb? And
Speaker 1: I'm like, what, Well, now we wait until it's dark
Speaker 1: and it's nine o'clock, ten o'clock, the light bulbs are on,
Speaker 1: and then when we're ready to go to sleep, we
Speaker 1: turn it off. We go to sleep, and then in
Speaker 1: the morning we wake up and if it's dark outside,
Speaker 1: we turned the light on. Well, how did we do
Speaker 1: that before the invention of the light bulb one hundred
Speaker 1: or so years ago?
Speaker 2: Candles?
Speaker 1: Yes, but she says candles were tricky and didn't gave
Speaker 1: a lot of light. So here's apparently how we slept
Speaker 1: for thousands of years before there was electricity. We'd go
Speaker 1: to bed at about early, like seven o'clock or so.
Speaker 1: We'd wake up at about ten or eleven, and we'd
Speaker 1: work or do something until about three. Then we'd go
Speaker 1: to sleep at three and sleep until it was light outside.
Speaker 2: How can we work and do something if it's.
Speaker 1: Dark light candles, I get. I don't know. That's a
Speaker 1: good question. But it was really interesting because she's like,
Speaker 1: how did we never talk about this? That they called
Speaker 1: it second sleep? So people would get up and eat
Speaker 1: and go socialize or do something and then go back
Speaker 1: to bed at about three o'clock in the morning and
Speaker 1: then have their second sleep until the sun came out.
Speaker 2: Sounds kind of nice, okay, I think?
Speaker 1: So all right, that's a personal one Jennifer about my
Speaker 1: favorite World War two books, and I will not bore
Speaker 1: everybody with answering that one on the podcast, So let's
Speaker 1: scroll back up here. Here is one. I agree with
Speaker 1: Bailey that the topic of men shaving their chest hair
Speaker 1: is interesting, so I asked my husband see a screen shot.
Speaker 1: I thought you might have get kick out of the answer.
Speaker 1: Happy Friday, Junior, here we go, she says on via
Speaker 1: text message screenshot. The radio's doing a bit where they
Speaker 1: ask men why do they shave their chest hair? So
Speaker 1: that makes me curious, why do you shave your chest hair, babe.
Speaker 1: His answer keeps down on smell and makes me look thinner. Hmm.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I didn't know what to expect, but
Speaker 1: it wasn't that that makes.
Speaker 2: Sense with smell though, because like, if I go too
Speaker 2: long without shaving my armpits, I do think they smell worse,
Speaker 2: so then I have to shave them. I do think that.
Speaker 2: Here's a hot take. I feel like men should not
Speaker 2: necessarily like shave their armpits, but at least like trim
Speaker 2: it because long armpit hair is so nasty to me, really, yeah,
Speaker 2: because then it gets like sweaty and wet and yeah,
Speaker 2: that's true gross, and when it touches you, it's.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, I don't really give a lot. I like,
Speaker 1: some hairy guys are just gross. I mean you see
Speaker 1: like a guy at the beach or the guy at
Speaker 1: the pool or something, and he's just hairy, like more skin,
Speaker 1: more hair than skin is showing.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I know a couple of people like that do. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but like they can't help it.
Speaker 1: No, they can't help it.
Speaker 2: So I definitely think landscaping is important regardless from head
Speaker 2: to toe. Landscaping is important.
Speaker 1: Good to know, all right, here we go next one
Speaker 1: from Juanita. Here comes our weekly rant, and make sure
Speaker 1: I get all the buttons pushed correctly, and I think
Speaker 1: we're ready to go.
Speaker 4: Hey hey, So I'm trying to get my boss to
Speaker 4: let me he take a Friday out so I can
Speaker 4: come down to the station with some Crumble cookies and
Speaker 4: we can do the mixtape game. But he acts like
Speaker 4: the company's gonna crumble if I'm not there on a Friday,
Speaker 4: So I'm a bitch.
Speaker 5: Anyway. My brand for this week is about my big
Speaker 5: ass son and his big ass friends. So now that
Speaker 5: the basketball season is over, go Huskies.
Speaker 4: My son and his buddies usually go up to the
Speaker 4: Wine and they usually shoot around or go work out
Speaker 4: or whatever. So one day my son texts me and
Speaker 4: asks me if I could come pick him and his
Speaker 4: friend singular up so I can give his friend the
Speaker 4: ride home.
Speaker 5: So I said, okay, cool. So I get up to
Speaker 5: the wy and my son and his friend are coming out.
Speaker 5: Mind you, my.
Speaker 4: Son is fifteen and he's six three. The friend that
Speaker 4: came out is about the same height, but behind them
Speaker 4: was about five or six more boys that are also
Speaker 4: about the same hike, so they're all walking up to
Speaker 4: my truck, I'm like, what the hell is y'all going?
Speaker 4: They're like, well, can you give us a ride home
Speaker 4: to t So I'm like, y'all's not fitting in here?
Speaker 4: Now I got a U kind of nolly and it's
Speaker 4: not the Excel is just the regular one. So all
Speaker 4: of a sudden, all my doors are opening, all these
Speaker 4: kids are piling in. So now I got kids on
Speaker 4: the floor, kids sitting on top of each other. So
Speaker 4: now I'm riding around and over looking like I'm fucking
Speaker 4: smuggling teenagers. But what I want to know is why
Speaker 4: the hell of the kids today so fucking big?
Speaker 5: They're huge.
Speaker 4: There's no way in the fifteen year olds back in
Speaker 4: the day, we're not damn near the same size of shack. Now,
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, I have to rend might break
Speaker 4: my neck to try to look up just to talk
Speaker 4: to a kid.
Speaker 5: God damn it.
Speaker 4: What the fuck are they putting in the milk these days?
Speaker 4: Well that's my rant for this week. I hurt you guys.
Speaker 5: Do you get it? Okay? I know that was lame. Well,
Speaker 5: I'll talk to you guys next week.
Speaker 1: Love you bye, love you back.
Speaker 2: I feel you want to it a because I work
Speaker 2: in a high school and I when I walk in
Speaker 2: and it's like dismissal time, and all the kids are
Speaker 2: walking around me, I feel like a salmon going upstream.
Speaker 2: They are all so so tall. I know, maybe like
Speaker 2: a handful that are my height or smaller. Everyone else
Speaker 2: is taller than me, and I feel like a small,
Speaker 2: little baby person, even though I think I'm an average
Speaker 2: hype woman.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna read some reasons. I just went on
Speaker 1: Google and googled why are kids taller now? Here we go,
Speaker 1: children are generally taller now than in the past due
Speaker 1: to improvements in nutrition, health care, and sanitation, leading to
Speaker 1: better growth and development. Here are some detailed explanations. Improve nutrition.
Speaker 1: Better access to a variety of nutrition's foods have reduced
Speaker 1: rates of malnutrition and have allowed children to reach their
Speaker 1: full genetic potential for height. Wow, I do know that,
Speaker 1: you know. I was reading some about the Civil War
Speaker 1: and they're talking about how tall the average soldier was
Speaker 1: back during the Civil War five foot six. Wow, So
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty, one hundred and sixty hundred and
Speaker 1: eighty years ago whatever, they were five foot six and
Speaker 1: a tall man was five foot ten. Yeah, so because
Speaker 1: back then you had everything from like childhood diseases, no vaccinations,
Speaker 1: poor nutrition. They ate a lot of lard and salt
Speaker 1: back then a lot of bacon, pickles, bright. So better
Speaker 1: health care leads to lower infant mortality rates and fewer
Speaker 1: childhood diseases that can stunt growth, better sanitation and hygiene,
Speaker 1: better brain sensory discovery. Okay, whatever that is, genetic factors,
Speaker 1: historical context. Data on human height from the past is
Speaker 1: often limited to specific groups like soldiers or criminals, which
Speaker 1: may not accurately reflect the entire population. So, like I
Speaker 1: just said, soldiers, yep. And rural versus urban. Research suggests
Speaker 1: that rural children in wealthy countries are now slightly taller
Speaker 1: than kids in cities due to improvements in nutrition and
Speaker 1: health programs in rural areas. So it's basically health and
Speaker 1: wellness has gotten better, allowing us to thrive more.
Speaker 2: I always say there's something in the water. It's because
Speaker 2: they're eating all the processed foods, but it's actually because
Speaker 2: their nutrition is better. That's fascinating.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it really is. I'm average height. I'm five
Speaker 1: foot ten. I think I've shrunk a little bit, maybe,
Speaker 1: like a quarter of an inch and or half an inch.
Speaker 2: My mom shrunk like three inches three inch. She's so
Speaker 2: tiny because she's shorter than me now. And I remember
Speaker 2: her being I mean maybe she was five six or something,
Speaker 2: but she's little now.
Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. Well, they say little old
Speaker 1: lady and little old man, because as you get older,
Speaker 1: your spine compresses. And so this is why I laid
Speaker 1: down a lot, so my spine won't compress.
Speaker 5: That's why.
Speaker 2: Not just because you're.
Speaker 1: Lazy or I'm lazy. And that is it for the
