Speaker 1: Now here's a little behind the scenes fun. You know,
Speaker 1: we always have equipment problems on KTWGB because it is
Speaker 1: kind of like you get into uh oh, I like
Speaker 1: a nineteen ninety eight Camra and the door handle is
Speaker 1: broken and there is duct tape on the dashboard where
Speaker 1: the dashboard got melted in the sun.
Speaker 2: And then the like the roof is like hanging down.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the roofs hanging down. So that is kind of
Speaker 1: how the KTWB studio is. But so our recording system
Speaker 1: was not working. So I found another recording system that
Speaker 1: is something that you can download online. It's called audist Audacity.
Speaker 1: And look at us now, and here we are recording
Speaker 1: on Audacity. Now, I'm pretty sure this is going to work.
Speaker 2: Should we Should we test it and see if we
Speaker 2: can like export it once it's done. I don't know.
Speaker 3: No, I'm just gonna take care. I'm just gonna take
Speaker 3: our chances that we're gonna do it here. So let's
Speaker 3: dive in.
Speaker 1: We get a bunch of email we got to get to.
Speaker 1: But because I had to close the computer a minute ago,
Speaker 1: I'm going to have to reopen things here. But it
Speaker 1: shouldn't take that long, and Okay, so we'll go right
Speaker 1: to the Dave Ryan, Oh boy, I don't know our passwords,
Speaker 1: son of a bee.
Speaker 3: Son of a this.
Speaker 2: I wish I could help you.
Speaker 3: Okay, stall for me for a Seconday.
Speaker 2: So over the weekend, I had a really exciting weekend
Speaker 2: that I know Dave doesn't think it's exciting, but I do.
Speaker 2: So I went to go see improv on on Friday,
Speaker 2: and then I was in an improv show on Saturday
Speaker 2: and my mom came. And my mom never comes to
Speaker 2: any shows that I'm in, but she was there. But
Speaker 2: she doesn't know anything about improv or comedy. So at
Speaker 2: the end I gave her a hugg. I was like,
Speaker 2: thank you for coming in. She was like it was good,
Speaker 2: and I was like, okay, did you think I was funny? Mom? Mom?
Speaker 2: Was I funny? But one guy who listens to the
Speaker 2: show was there, so that was cool. Okay, good, thanks
Speaker 2: one person.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, thanks for salving.
Speaker 2: You're welcome. Thank you for letting me tell my story.
Speaker 3: Well it's not a good story, so I'm glad I
Speaker 3: was able to wrap it up real quick.
Speaker 4: Good.
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, I have a quick question. Dave mentioned he
Speaker 1: had a podcast about scams on his radar a week
Speaker 1: or so ago. Could you please say the name of
Speaker 1: it again. I haven't been able to find it. It's
Speaker 1: called scam Town and it's good, but I'm disappointed then
Speaker 1: a little bit regretful that I used it as of
Speaker 1: what's on my radar because there's only like four episodes
Speaker 1: of scam Town. It is a great idea for a podcast,
Speaker 1: but they only did about four or five, maybe six
Speaker 1: episodes scam Town.
Speaker 2: I just finished a podcast that I've been listening to
Speaker 2: for the last like four years called By the Book,
Speaker 2: where these two women live by self help books and
Speaker 2: they like read the self help books. They turn it
Speaker 2: into like a step by step system and then for
Speaker 2: two weeks they just live by this self help Okay,
Speaker 2: an amazing concept. The two women who are on it
Speaker 2: are so annoying. Oh after a while, okay, So I
Speaker 2: was like waiting for this to be over. I'm just
Speaker 2: trying to get through it. And I finally got through it,
Speaker 2: and now I'm done and I never have to listen
Speaker 2: to their voices again.
Speaker 1: That's really interesting. I listened to a podcast called Take
Speaker 1: to the Sky, the air disaster podcast, and I I
Speaker 1: didn't like the women at first, because they would giggle
Speaker 1: and make jokes about you know, like you know, like
Speaker 1: say inappropriate things about all these people who died, not
Speaker 1: not deliberately target but I'm like, you've got to be more.
Speaker 1: But I got to love them. I really, I really
Speaker 1: learned to love these two. Yeah, because they were just
Speaker 1: so human and they would be like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: they were just so human.
Speaker 3: About the opposite.
Speaker 2: I was like, I like these ladies, and now I don't.
Speaker 1: All right, next one, there's a bunch of emails. Here
Speaker 1: we go. Let me try this one. Regarding foot massages,
Speaker 1: Dave check out a reflexologist. They are a naturalist type
Speaker 1: of care and will not only take care of your
Speaker 1: foot pain, but they will also be able to find
Speaker 1: the root. Cause I went backpacking through Europe last summer
Speaker 1: found out that the source of pain was from my
Speaker 1: knee and hips. Love the show from Kayley, I wouldn't
Speaker 1: rule it out. I will say that my feet are
Speaker 1: much better now after masage, not just after the massage,
Speaker 1: but I honestly think it was crocs. Yeah, because I've
Speaker 1: been wearing crocs for most of the summer and I
Speaker 1: really think they mess with my feet. So right now
Speaker 1: I'm wearing very very supportive running shoes and they really
Speaker 1: help because I was like hobbling and I felt like, God,
Speaker 1: if they hurt this bad, they're only going to get worse.
Speaker 3: But I think it was Crocs, which is.
Speaker 2: So interesting because Crocs is supposed to be so like,
Speaker 2: I mean, not good for your feet, but like comfortable,
Speaker 2: which I think they are, which is why we wear
Speaker 2: them so much. And they slip right on, so it's
Speaker 2: really nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't wear I wear them in sport mode,
Speaker 1: which is when you get a strap back up on the.
Speaker 2: Top of probably better for you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, actually, because they said they're bad for kids' feet
Speaker 1: because kids have to curl their toes when they walk
Speaker 1: to keep them on.
Speaker 2: Right, But you don't want it's in sportboo right.
Speaker 1: Okay, here's an email from her shot. It says, uh
Speaker 1: uh why why why did I fan girls squeal when
Speaker 1: I heard you read my email on the podcast. I
Speaker 1: am a grown ass, thirty five year old man. It
Speaker 1: was absolutely unexpected but so real.
Speaker 3: Thanks. If my original email.
Speaker 1: Run the podcast qualifies for a staff writer sicker, I
Speaker 1: would love one, and I will get Secretary Breed to
Speaker 1: send you one.
Speaker 2: Thanks for emailing us.
Speaker 1: Yes, next one question for Bailey unless Jenny and Dave
Speaker 1: have become fans of musicals also, haha. I'm dying to
Speaker 1: find somebody else in the world who knows about and
Speaker 1: loves The Idol Maker The Idle Man. It was a
Speaker 1: movie from the eighties. Only person anyone would probably recognize
Speaker 1: is Peter Gallagher. I love the movie and the amazing songs.
Speaker 1: Most people have never heard of it, and I don't
Speaker 1: even know where or how I can watch it anymore.
Speaker 1: Do you know anything about that?
Speaker 2: I never heard of it, but I just looked it up. Yeah,
Speaker 2: American musical drama nineteen eighty The guy in It's like
Speaker 2: super cute, but I don't who is this guy? Oh,
Speaker 2: Peter Gallagher, Ray Sharky, Paul Land. I don't know good
Speaker 2: looking people. Okay, No, I've never heard of this. This
Speaker 2: is interesting because I do love a campy, random musical
Speaker 2: that no one's ever heard of. I'm gonna find this somehow.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna look up Maker streaming. I don't know technically.
Speaker 2: It says it's on YouTube, but I'm not sure if
Speaker 2: that's real or not. I want to watch it now.
Speaker 3: Oh, it looks good.
Speaker 2: Okay, it looks kind of like Elvis.
Speaker 1: Well, camping in random is totally you camping and random
Speaker 1: while you're looking at the Internet, and I'm going to
Speaker 1: read the next email. Yes, greetings to my favorite coworkers.
Speaker 1: You might as well be since I spend every day
Speaker 1: listening to you all. I feel like a creepy behind
Speaker 1: the scenes part of the crew. You may leave my
Speaker 1: name out to protect the innocent Annie Hooter. They say
Speaker 1: today when you talked about the crazy conspiracists that talk
Speaker 1: about the hurricanes being controlled by the government. This happened
Speaker 1: to me this week at the dentist. I was a
Speaker 1: captive audience, and she went off on how the government
Speaker 1: controls these hurricanes with silver in them and something called
Speaker 1: haarp out of morbid curiosity. I looked it up when
Speaker 1: I got home. Well, it was once a thing, but
Speaker 1: connecting those dots as wild. She also told me that
Speaker 1: FEMA is the mob. They steal all the supplies and
Speaker 1: keep it for themselves. She has friends in Florida and
Speaker 1: there is no weather there. I could go on, but
Speaker 1: I'll save you. I'm all for independent thought and ideas,
Speaker 1: but this is a business. I'm there for X rays
Speaker 1: and a cleaning, and I'm being held captive with sharp
Speaker 1: objects in my mouth. I can't do anything rather than
Speaker 1: mutterstrained sounds. When she started talking, I thought, oh no,
Speaker 1: not her again. In the past she has gone off
Speaker 1: about how the pandemic is fake and how mad she
Speaker 1: gets when someone wears a mask. So I was left
Speaker 1: with the struggle again of saying something, I'm a believer
Speaker 1: and okay, I was left with the struggle again of
Speaker 1: saying something, I'm a believer in live and let live.
Speaker 1: But this time I called the request to no longer
Speaker 1: her have her as my hygienist. Would you also, does
Speaker 1: anybody actively dry their feet when getting out of the
Speaker 1: shower or do you let the drug do it for you?
Speaker 1: When I asked my internet friends only about one of
Speaker 1: the nineteen responses said yes, I do actively try my feet.
Speaker 2: I dry the top of my feet and then the
Speaker 2: bottom of my feet get dried by the rug.
Speaker 3: When you dry your legs, do you prop them up
Speaker 3: on eight? Hold on? That means we're going to talk.
Speaker 1: Okay, hold on, panic and we'll be back. Okay, we
Speaker 1: are now continuing. There was a slight break in there
Speaker 1: because we had to play with the equipment for a
Speaker 1: little bit.
Speaker 3: But you found that movie.
Speaker 2: If the Idol Maker is on YouTube, like you have
Speaker 2: to sit through ads, like there's quite a few ads
Speaker 2: in it. But I literally looked up The Idol Maker
Speaker 2: streaming and it's on YouTube.
Speaker 3: The whole thing.
Speaker 1: Good to know. So let's talk about first of all,
Speaker 1: the hygienis. You are not wrong. If that bothers you
Speaker 1: hearing the hygenis talk about conspiracy theories.
Speaker 3: I think the thing.
Speaker 1: I'm really fascinated by conspiracy theories because I think one
Speaker 1: of the things that people forget is if it's a
Speaker 1: hard thing to explain and pull off, it's likely not true.
Speaker 1: So there's a philosophy called Ocham's razor that I really
Speaker 1: love occ u m apostrophe s Aukham's razor, I think
Speaker 1: is how you say it, spell it, And basically the
Speaker 1: philosophy goes, if all other things are equal, the easiest,
Speaker 1: simplest explanation is usually the true one. So if Bailey's
Speaker 1: not here, I look up and Bailey's not here, it
Speaker 1: could be that you spontaneously combusted. Yeah, oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's very possible that Bailey slipped into another dimension. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's very possible that Bailey has invented a time machine
Speaker 1: with the assistance of the mafia, and you have used
Speaker 1: the time machine to subversively do evil or you went
Speaker 1: to pe right, And I think and I think that's
Speaker 1: how conspiracy theorists kind of forget that. The simplest example
Speaker 1: is probably answer is probably the answer. And so when
Speaker 1: I hear things about, you know, conspiracy theories, everything from
Speaker 1: nine to eleven being an inside job, to chem trails
Speaker 1: to walking on the moon.
Speaker 2: Birds aren't real.
Speaker 3: Birds aren't real.
Speaker 2: Haven't you heard that one? Oh, there's a conspiracy that
Speaker 2: birds are drones so that the government can by on us.
Speaker 3: There's spent a lot of it.
Speaker 1: First of all, they don't they're not going to find
Speaker 1: anything interesting flying over my house or house or Vaughan's
Speaker 1: house exactly. And they've got a lot of expensive drones
Speaker 1: out there that they've spent a lot of money so that.
Speaker 1: But see, that's the thing. The simplest explanation is usually
Speaker 1: they're birds.
Speaker 2: Right, They're birds, period, That's it. That's all that they are.
Speaker 1: So but I'm going to go ahead and I'm going
Speaker 1: to give a little airtime to somebody who believes in
Speaker 1: conspiracy theories.
Speaker 3: So here comes Chad. Uh.
Speaker 1: Chad says, hi, I caught part of your morning show
Speaker 1: talking about conspiracy theories about this topic. I also heard
Speaker 1: you vomiting bs and total denial about this topic. You
Speaker 1: should really either shut up with your opinions until you
Speaker 1: know what you're talking about, or dig it to it
Speaker 1: with a bit of research, that's what he says. Or
Speaker 1: dig dig into it to oh into it. With a
Speaker 1: bit of research, you will find that the US government
Speaker 1: has been researching and testing and yes, manipulating wealth wealth
Speaker 1: maybe they mean weather with laser and harp technology since
Speaker 1: the sixties and so also slowly, I can tell your
Speaker 1: show is going more and more liberal and not neutral
Speaker 1: like you used to be. Know what you are talking
Speaker 1: about and don't spew disinformation, Chad, with all respect, Conspiracy
Speaker 1: theories to me have absolutely nothing to do with being
Speaker 1: liberal or conservative, right. They have to do with critical thinking. Now,
Speaker 1: I'm going to pat myself on the back. I am
Speaker 1: a member of the High IQ Society.
Speaker 3: Yessah.
Speaker 1: So I have a great way of rationalizing things that
Speaker 1: simpletons like you, Bailey are unable to.
Speaker 3: Keep up with.
Speaker 2: Okay, can you explain weather to me? Then?
Speaker 1: Yeah, weather is a naturally occurring phenomena.
Speaker 2: Great, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if we really did have control over the weather,
Speaker 1: I don't know that we would make it worse. We
Speaker 1: would probably make it better. Now to make the conclusion
Speaker 1: jump to the to far fetched a quantum leap, that
Speaker 1: we're not only able to manipulate the weather, but in
Speaker 1: a serious, the fucking way by coming up with a
Speaker 1: category five hurricane, I don't think the best use of
Speaker 1: that technology would be to wipe out billions of dollars
Speaker 1: worth of infrastructure, property, homes, and also and lives. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I don't know what I would like to know
Speaker 1: who the person is. I'm picturing somebody who mister Smithers
Speaker 1: from The Simpsons. Yeah, he's sitting in an office twirling
Speaker 1: his fingertips together.
Speaker 3: Like, yes, yes, let's send a hurricane.
Speaker 2: M let me play to the Carolinas.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes, And then and then when we do that,
Speaker 4: the government will slowly respond with FEMA, you see, and
Speaker 4: then therefore we can win the election.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, that's right.
Speaker 2: Once there's a lot of hoops, a lot of hoops
Speaker 2: to jump through, well to get the thing that you want.
Speaker 1: Right exactly, And it's like the most Again, Chad, due
Speaker 1: respect is the critical thinking will tell you that it's
Speaker 1: just too much trouble. Yeah, and very unlikely. Now, some
Speaker 1: conspiracies are very possible, like JFK. Who shot JFK? Well,
Speaker 1: the simple answer is Oswald. But even though it's pretty much,
Speaker 1: in my opinion ninety five percent that he did do
Speaker 1: it and act alone, nobody knows.
Speaker 2: Nobody knows for sure, that could have been set up
Speaker 2: and then he was just the one who carried it out.
Speaker 2: Kind of thing, right, did you This is a slight tangent.
Speaker 2: Did you ever watch that TV show nineteen sixty like
Speaker 2: nine or nineteen sixty eight or whatever.
Speaker 3: Whenever about the JFK assassination about JFKAS.
Speaker 1: I read the book is nineteen sixty three, I think, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I read the book.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was actually very fascinating and it was James
Speaker 2: Franco was in it and it scared the pants off
Speaker 2: of me.
Speaker 1: And I should go back and watch that one because
Speaker 1: I have not. But yeah, I don't, you know, I
Speaker 1: was just really I kind of like scoff at conspiracy theories,
Speaker 1: like you know, and this is probably really boring to
Speaker 1: Liszt and too, so if you never want me to
Speaker 1: bring it up again, say Dave, never bring up conspiracy
Speaker 1: theories again. But people like Chad. Honestly, Chad, you kind
Speaker 1: of crack me up because you are not thinking it
Speaker 1: through logically, Like the moon landing. If the moon landing
Speaker 1: was fake, why didn't the Russians say anything about it?
Speaker 1: Why didn't the Russians who we were Supposedly we faked
Speaker 1: the moon landing so we could scare the Russians into thinking, well, fuck,
Speaker 1: they've got killer technology. We don't want to go to
Speaker 1: nuclear war with them. But if the Russians, if anybody
Speaker 1: thought it was fake, it would be the Russians. Okay, Honestly,
Speaker 1: I would like to go a little bit longer because
Speaker 1: we have some more quality emails to read on the
Speaker 1: Minnesota Goodbye. But we're having equipment problems and we're using
Speaker 1: a system that I'm honestly not even positive that it's working.
Speaker 1: I won't know until I go to play it back
Speaker 1: and upload it, so we will see. I'll take a
Speaker 1: leap of faith oough and say that I think it worked,
Speaker 1: and thank you for listening to the Minnesota Goodbye. Send
Speaker 1: it your emails. I'd love to hear more conspiracy theory arguments.
Speaker 1: That's fun to me, but maybe you're bored with it.
Speaker 1: Send your emails to Ryan Show at KDWB dot com,
Speaker 1: m
