WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:03.960 If you can't afford to tip, then you stay home 2 00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:06.799 and you eat your own food. I say this to 3 00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:08.480 get your attention, kind of like you know when you 4 00:00:08.519 --> 00:00:11.480 watch an Instagram reel. If it's got something really exciting 5 00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:14.599 in the freeze frame thumbnail, then you'll watch it. But 6 00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:16.640 if it's like a box of ramen, you're gonna be like, 7 00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:18.320 fuck this, I'm not gonna watch this. I don't care 8 00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:19.800 about a box of ramen. You know what I'm saying, 9 00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:21.480 Attention getter. 10 00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:23.719 Start You can't paragraph essay with right. 11 00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:25.679 An attention getter. If you can't stay, if you can't 12 00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:28.199 afford to tip, then fucking stay home. I'm trying to 13 00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:31.280 get your attention. And this is part of the theme 14 00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:33.359 of the email here. So I don't know if that's 15 00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:35.439 an attention getter or I'm just being annoying. 16 00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:38.960 I think but getter in my opinion. 17 00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:40.960 But well, the reason I bring it up is because 18 00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:44.799 somebody writes in and they say, I've got a random topic. 19 00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:47.520 Curious you guys had any additions to my list? Made 20 00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:49.960 me think of this as these are a few things 21 00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.280 that have come up recently on the Main Show and 22 00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:55.119 the Minnesota Goodbye that I have strong opinions about says Rachel. 23 00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:57.719 These are not things that are illegal, but more like 24 00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:00.479 unwritten rules of society, and if you can't follow them 25 00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:03.280 that I think you should be not be doing set activity. 26 00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:06.480 Here we go. I agree with Dave, says Rachel that 27 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:08.120 he said in the past, if you can't afford to tip, 28 00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:10.040 you can't afford to go out to eat, because tipping 29 00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:12.680 is part of eating out in the United States, even 30 00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:16.400 if people don't like it. I mean, I've said that before. 31 00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:19.400 I would also say that it does suck if you 32 00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:20.920 are on a limited income and you want to go 33 00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:22.920 to Red Lobster and get some cheddar Bay biscuits and 34 00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:27.719 fire a bad surloin steak down your throat that you know, 35 00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:31.920 maybe maybe you can't afford to tip enough or a lot. Okay, 36 00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:34.239 I mean I think once in a while. But you know, 37 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:36.719 if you are a no tipper because you say the 38 00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:41.000 restaurant should pay them enough, well they don't. Yeah, so 39 00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.159 you are responsible for making up that difference. 40 00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:46.840 Any thoughts, I mean, I fully agree, I don't. I 41 00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.159 just feel like it's been a societal standard for a 42 00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:52.120 very long time. So, like the whole argument of the 43 00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:55.040 restaurant should pay them more. I don't really get that. 44 00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:57.400 It's like that's just how it's always been tip at 45 00:01:57.439 --> 00:01:58.319 a restaurant. 46 00:01:57.920 --> 00:01:59.519 And you can't really say, like, well, back in my 47 00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:01.719 day we have to tip, and now we have to 48 00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:04.239 tip all the time. Shouldn't we have been tipping this 49 00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:06.400 whole time. Like you said, it's a societal thing. It's 50 00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:09.199 been since the dawn of time. I get the whole 51 00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:12.719 like spinning the little screen around and it starts at 52 00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:16.280 twenty two, goes to twenty five, thirty percent. Just do 53 00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:20.039 customize and do twenty percent or customize eighteen percent or whatever. 54 00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:22.800 But you should be tipping every time you go out. 55 00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.879 We were in Manitou Springs, Colorado, at a very popular 56 00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.400 some burger place. They specialize in burgers, but it's basically 57 00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.439 like bar food, all kinds of sandwiches and just I mean, 58 00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:37.319 like an amazing menu. We waited forty five minutes for 59 00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:40.479 a table because it's very touristy. We finally got in 60 00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:43.000 and we sat down and it took a little longer 61 00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.800 than it should have to get our waters and our drinks. 62 00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.199 Then the server killed it. She was there every five 63 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:52.560 minutes to check on us. The food was great. It 64 00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:56.400 was hot, it was quick, she was very prompt, and 65 00:02:56.439 --> 00:03:02.080 I tipped her that probably fifty percent instead of twenty percent. Yeah, 66 00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:05.319 because I said you did so great. I mean, you 67 00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:08.560 were so good and we really came in expecting slow 68 00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:10.520 service because you're so busy, and she's like, oh, well, 69 00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:12.240 the cooks in the kitchen they really do a great 70 00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:14.400 job too. And I didn't say, look at me, I'm 71 00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:17.280 tipping you fifty percent, but I said you did really well, 72 00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:21.080 and therefore you earned a really big tip, because shit, yeah, 73 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.400 I really thought we'd be waiting for a long time, 74 00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:24.400 but no, it was very good. 75 00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:28.680 Right, even if the service isn't great, I still tip because, like, 76 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:30.360 like we said, like, they don't get paid a lot, 77 00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:32.560 so here's a little bit. 78 00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:34.039 It's and it always. 79 00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.080 Ends up not being that much anyway, because like, who 80 00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:38.240 here is going to a fancy, fancy restaurant and tipping 81 00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:39.000 one hundred dollars? 82 00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:42.840 Yeah right, not very often. Also, I think if you 83 00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:44.759 can't afford it or don't want to buy snacks at 84 00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:47.240 a movie theater, then you should stay home and watch 85 00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:50.080 it on streaming, or go see the movie and not 86 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:52.240 eat snacks for those two hours. This has been a 87 00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:56.080 big ongoing discussion, and nobody agrees with me. But it's 88 00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:59.159 not me that it's being you know, it's not me 89 00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:01.800 that's getting the ben fit of you not bringing your 90 00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:04.960 own food to the theater. People are proud that they 91 00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:07.319 bring in their own food and candy and dots and 92 00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:09.719 doctor Pepper to the movie theater. People were proud of that. 93 00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:13.000 But I've talked to several theater owners, including Michelle Mann 94 00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:16.920 who owns Like the Man Theaters, and she's like, we 95 00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:20.560 make nothing on movie ticket sales. We make nothing. It's 96 00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:27.079 all on concession. So even Jenny, who was anti buying snacks, 97 00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:30.160 went to the movie last night, and now you have converted. 98 00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:30.839 Oh. 99 00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:33.399 I wouldn't say I converted. I just simply didn't have 100 00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:35.319 time to buy snacks at No, it's not because that. 101 00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.240 It's the fact that, honestly, the snacks were much less 102 00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:40.079 at this movie theater I went to than they normally 103 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:42.079 are at other theaters. Like it's eight dollars for a 104 00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:44.920 junior men's pack at most movie theaters. It was three 105 00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:46.560 or four dollars at the one last night, And I 106 00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:49.120 was like, well, that's actually reasonable, even though there's still 107 00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.319 like a dollar twenty five at a gas station. So 108 00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:54.199 I did buy snacks at the movie theater last night. 109 00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:56.279 Here's one thing I'll say, and people can come at 110 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:59.399 me for this. It's not anything new that people bring 111 00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:02.079 their own food in to movie theaters. So why go 112 00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:05.319 into that industry, in that business if you know that, like, 113 00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:08.879 the business model is not the best because people bring 114 00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:09.519 their own food in. 115 00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:12.519 That's because people used to be ethical. I think people 116 00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:15.120 used to respect the rule, and now people are like, no, 117 00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:17.639 I don't want to it's too expensive. And again it 118 00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:20.480 goes back to if you can't afford to eat the 119 00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:23.199 junior Mints at the theater, then don't fucking go to 120 00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:25.079 the movie theater. It's like, if you can't afford to 121 00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:27.639 go to Red Lobster, you don't get to go into 122 00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:31.079 Red Lobster and enjoy the beautiful atmosphere and bring in 123 00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:33.439 a Jimmy John's. You just don't, you know what I mean? 124 00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:35.040 The movie theater. And if I'm like, well, I don't 125 00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:37.600 want to pay twenty bucks for a bucket of popcorn, 126 00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:39.279 I'm just not going to eat popcorn. 127 00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:43.160 But I can right, you don't need snacks during a movie. 128 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:44.759 I don't know. I just feel bad for businesses that 129 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:47.240 are trying to be ethical and they're like they charged 130 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:50.519 too much. Well that's they think about what it costs 131 00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:53.040 to make a cup of Caribou coffee or Starbucks coffee. 132 00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:56.360 It probably costs for Mike a cup of coffee every morning. 133 00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:59.360 It probably costs him maybe a quarter, and if you 134 00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:01.920 throw in labor costs, it might be double that. So 135 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:05.240 maybe it's fifty cents. They charge four dollars for a 136 00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:09.040 cup of coffee at Caribou, and I don't go into 137 00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:11.920 Cariboo and go this should be fifty cents because that's 138 00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:14.879 what it costs you. The businesses make a profit. Yeah, 139 00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.480 they got to pay their employees. Carol Ane needs money. 140 00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:20.199 She got rent due, you know what I'm saying. Next 141 00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:23.319 one all from Rachel. Thank you Rachel. If you can't 142 00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:25.279 put your cart in the cart corral after taking the 143 00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:27.839 things to your car, you should not be taking a 144 00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:29.720 cart out of the store. You got kids or something 145 00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:31.959 that makes it difficult to return your cart. There are 146 00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:35.319 many other options like having groceries delivered or doing drive 147 00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:37.680 up and having things put in your car, so you 148 00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:41.279 don't need to use a cart yourself. Sincerely, Rachel. You 149 00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:44.519 know it's just there's just common courtesies you do. I mean, 150 00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:47.079 I would forgive somebody who if they were a mom 151 00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:49.720 and they had a screaming toddler and another screaming toddler 152 00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:51.759 and they got it, they've got diarrhea and they need 153 00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:54.360 to get home and they you know, sometimes once in 154 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:56.319 a while there's an exception, but for the most part, 155 00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:57.720 you have put your cart in the corral. Right. 156 00:06:57.800 --> 00:06:59.959 If you're a chronic, not put your cart in a coraler, 157 00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:02.040 you're what's wrong with the world. 158 00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:06.560 Yes you are, Thank you, Rachel. Next one and it's 159 00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:09.720 your fishing buddy, Stephanie. I went fishing with Stephanie on 160 00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:12.560 Lake Minnetonka a couple of years ago. We got skunked, 161 00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:14.959 but we had a great time. She's a professional angler. 162 00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:17.199 She's been on the show a few times. Dan Cool 163 00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:20.000 writing in for the first time because I'm hoping for 164 00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:23.360 a staff rider sticker to put on my ice fishing buckets. Okay, 165 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:25.800 have any of you ever been at one of your 166 00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:28.120 live events and someone started heckling you like they would 167 00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:31.560 a stand up comedian. If yes, how did you handle it? 168 00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:35.519 The only time I remember, I was doing something to 169 00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:38.160 the State Fair and somebody walked by and it was 170 00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:40.680 like a boy, probably twenty years old. He's like, Katie, 171 00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:45.439 WB sucks and I said, your mom likes us, and 172 00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:49.079 the crowd laughed. But other than that, no, anybody. 173 00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:51.519 Else, No, never, I've never experienced any kind of heckling. 174 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:53.560 I have a weird not for me, but I have 175 00:07:53.639 --> 00:07:56.199 a weird heckling story that you reminded me of. At 176 00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:58.399 the State Fair. You know have they have like mascots 177 00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:01.040 that are like the chipmunks. Yeah, was a mascot once 178 00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:03.079 at the fair, maybe like fifteen years ago that was 179 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:04.879 a dog and he was kind of like made out 180 00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:07.399 of rags, and he came out and me and my 181 00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:11.120 sister were like, you know, petting this fake dog. And 182 00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:13.399 these little boys came up to this dog and he's like, 183 00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:16.120 They're like, we know you're not a real dog. We 184 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.399 know that there's a person in there, and just like 185 00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:21.800 heckling this dog mascot, and the dog mascot was like 186 00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:23.680 being a dog. And then he stopped, looked at these 187 00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:26.439 boys with his big dog head and he said, listen, pal, 188 00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:28.800 you gotta believe it, or you gotta leave. And it 189 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:33.120 was like, this dog's not supposed to talk, but he 190 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:35.559 was over these kids and they just were like ooh, 191 00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:38.519 and then left. But I remember that guy in that 192 00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:41.320 dog suit all the time, like, listen, boys, you better. 193 00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:44.080 Believe that funny good for the dog. 194 00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:46.559 Anyway, if anyone ever heckles you, you say, you better 195 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:47.639 believe her, you better leave. 196 00:08:47.919 --> 00:08:51.399 I like it. I love it. When I was probably ten, 197 00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:55.000 we went to a circus and they had a little 198 00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:58.679 side show and there was a guy he is a clown, 199 00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:01.440 and he sat on a board with nails sticking out 200 00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:03.559 of it. So just imagine a board with a bunch 201 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:05.480 of nails driven through it and they're maybe an inch 202 00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:08.440 apart and they're probably five inches long. And as part 203 00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:14.000 of his show, he sat down on this board of 204 00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:19.879 nails and everybody's like, oh my gosh. Well I knew 205 00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:22.399 how he did it, because even at ten years old, 206 00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:25.600 I knew like somehow magic tricks, some of them worked, 207 00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:28.240 and your weight is so distributed on this bed of 208 00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:30.080 nails that you're not going to sink into the bed 209 00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:32.960 of nails and kill yourself. So after the side show 210 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:35.879 was over, me and my friend Scott stayed and on, guy, 211 00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:37.240 let me do it. I want to do it. I 212 00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:38.440 can do it. I can do it. I want to 213 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:39.679 do it. Give me the bed of nails. I want 214 00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:40.759 to do it. I can do it. I can do it. 215 00:09:40.759 --> 00:09:42.159 I can do it. I want to do it. And 216 00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:47.639 the clown just sat there with the most annoyed I'm 217 00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:51.360 losing my patient's look. He no longer looked happy because 218 00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:53.200 it was just a guy. It was just a guy 219 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:55.279 in clown makeup that was putting up with a couple 220 00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:58.039 of little ten year old assholes that were trying to 221 00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:04.960 blow his cover. So Jenny, no, no, you yeah, next one. 222 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:08.399 I feel like the radio station says, pay fifteen dollars 223 00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:10.320 to the person to add the blue check mark to 224 00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:14.840 your accounts, making your individual Instagram's official. I would hate 225 00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:17.600 for someone to take your photos and start another profile. Well, 226 00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:18.720 I don't know, how do you do that? 227 00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:21.480 You can pay to get a blue check mark? 228 00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:23.039 Oh well, let's do it. Why can't we do it? 229 00:10:23.559 --> 00:10:25.240 I mean, it's up to you if you want to pay, 230 00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:26.960 how do we do it? Going to pay? Because I 231 00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:29.120 think that like the people who get the blue check 232 00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:31.840 marks like earned it. But then there's like I'm not 233 00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:34.799 gonna lie. I know someone that like does not have 234 00:10:34.840 --> 00:10:36.759 a huge following and they pay for a blue check 235 00:10:36.799 --> 00:10:39.200 mark and so they feel more official. But it's like, yeah, 236 00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:42.440 you have like a thousand followers. 237 00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:44.320 Like some tell me how to do it, and I'll 238 00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:44.600 do it. 239 00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:47.879 I haven't even looked into it. I'm sure google how. 240 00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:49.159 To get a blue check mark on Instagram. 241 00:10:49.200 --> 00:10:51.519 Okay, hell do that later. Yeah. Have you ever done 242 00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:54.759 a segment on the radio asking people to tell their rescue, dog, cat, 243 00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.879 etcetera story. I'll bet there's some touching roadside or shelter stories. No, 244 00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:03.919 we've never done that. I have a rescue dog story, 245 00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:06.840 but it's not exciting at all. Rex was our Collie 246 00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:09.120 and he was a breeding dog and he got too 247 00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.200 old to breed, so then they retired him and he 248 00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:12.720 was a foster dog. We drove all the way to 249 00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:15.759 Wisconsin and Alison and Susan picked him up and he 250 00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:20.799 was a delightful dog. But it's not an exciting story. 251 00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:21.080 Yeah. 252 00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:24.559 I feel like most rescue dog like rescue pet situations, 253 00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:26.600 is just that you get them from a rescue, but 254 00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:28.960 you don't know like the conditions that they were in. Yeah, 255 00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:31.519 well he was outside in the bitter cold and he 256 00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:34.480 was beaten off other cats, like leave me alone. But 257 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:36.360 I don't know that about my cat. I just made 258 00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:38.279 that story up about good story. Yeah, he lived in 259 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:38.799 the streets. 260 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:41.440 Seventy says. I've been a listener since the beginning of 261 00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:47.559 Dave's KTIEWV career. Love y'all, Thank you, Stephanie, we love 262 00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:52.080 you back. Next one, don't say my name. I want 263 00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:53.639 to let you guys know the impact you have of 264 00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:56.000 my life. I listened to the morning show each morning 265 00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:58.159 on my way to work, and listened to the Minnesota 266 00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:01.240 Goodbye on my way home each day. Yesterday I was 267 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.320 having an ab normally anxious day. The last two hours 268 00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:05.879 of my day were spent on the verge of a 269 00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:09.360 panic attack. I drove home in eighteen degree weather without 270 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:12.279 the heat on because my anxiety was so bad. But 271 00:12:12.360 --> 00:12:15.000 after turning on the podcast, I felt a little bit better. 272 00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:17.600 It was almost like a phone call with my best ease. 273 00:12:17.639 --> 00:12:19.399 It was calming. I just wanted to say that I 274 00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:24.759 appreciate you all and all that you do. Happy holiday season. 275 00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:28.440 Thank you. That is very nice, and I'm really I 276 00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:31.399 mean it is. One of the best things about our 277 00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:32.840 job is that we get to make a difference in 278 00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:36.000 people's lives and their moods. And I think one of 279 00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:38.000 the reasons that I love radio so much is because 280 00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:39.919 that's what it did for me when I was a kid. 281 00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:42.320 I think there's a lot of people who are on 282 00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:46.600 the radio for their own self gratification. And I'm not 283 00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:49.440 going to name any but I could easily name a 284 00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:51.960 handful of people that are on the radio for their 285 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:55.159 own self aggrandization. Is that a word, a grandization? 286 00:12:55.720 --> 00:12:57.679 I don't know, but gratification definitely is. 287 00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:00.320 Yeah. There because they want to be famous, they want 288 00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:02.279 to get attention, they want to be celebrities, they want 289 00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:07.399 to be special. And I feel special, but it's because 290 00:13:07.399 --> 00:13:10.799 of you. So I don't get on the radio because 291 00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:14.000 I want to, and I go home and I watched TV. Yeah, 292 00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:15.799 I don't go out in public and go, hey, it's 293 00:13:15.840 --> 00:13:17.759 me Dave Ryan, do you want to come meet me? 294 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:20.600 I don't. I go home and I watched TV, and 295 00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:22.720 I get on my computer and I play on my phone. 296 00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:26.799 I am not here to be anything more than there 297 00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:28.559 for you. It's kind of like a I'm going to 298 00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:31.600 compare myself to a doctor in that the doctor is 299 00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:33.360 not well. Maybe they are doing it to get rich. 300 00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:36.399 I'm not sure, you know what I mean. Doctors get 301 00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:39.000 satisfaction because she makes you feel better and gets rid 302 00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:41.639 of your disease, right, And if I get the privilege 303 00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:43.919 of making you feel better, it's for you, not for me. 304 00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:45.279 And I think that's one of the reasons that I'm 305 00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:47.840 old is the fucking hills and I'm still on the radio. 306 00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:49.240 Yeah, that's the hills. 307 00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:51.240 But don't you know some people in radio Jenny that 308 00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:53.720 are like they're all about how special they are. 309 00:13:54.679 --> 00:13:56.480 I mean, I can name a couple they have been 310 00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.200 in this industry quite as long as you.

We've been together 369 00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:28.559 for twenty years, and he busted out this piece of shit, 370 00:16:28.559 --> 00:16:33.240 Are you serious? Who loves you? Meh? First time, I 371 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:35.519 let it go, but it gave me super ick vibes. 372 00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:37.639 He kept saying it, and finally I told him it's douchey. 373 00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:43.120 He was like, what, I'm trying to use some new material, Nah, bitch. 374 00:16:43.840 --> 00:16:47.799 That gives me the fucking douchebag vibes, That drives a 375 00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:50.360 yellow convertible, gives you a punch on the bottom of 376 00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:52.720 your chin, and then likely steals the frozen pizza you 377 00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:56.279 didn't eat the night before. Peace, what's that fact? Give 378 00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:58.039 me the old material. It's what kept me here for 379 00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:01.679 two two decades. A dipshit.
