Speaker 1: I've been having a sneezing attack, so I'm not sure
Speaker 1: how far I'll get into this podcast. Here's a little
Speaker 1: fun fact for you. We did the podcast for about
Speaker 1: ten twelve minutes and then the computer screen said error error,
Speaker 1: and everything froze up. Classic, so it hadn't happened in
Speaker 1: a while. Yeah, I deleted huh we were we were due? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I went back and I deleted a bunch of files.
Speaker 1: So it should work now. As we say KDWB, the
Speaker 1: best music and the worst equipment. People do come in
Speaker 1: here sometimes and they look at our board and they
Speaker 1: go who because it's kind of like an old Honda Civic.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, Yeah, like a nineteen ninety
Speaker 2: two in ninety.
Speaker 1: Two Honda Civic. If you look at it and go,
Speaker 1: huh is it still run?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: It runs fine, gets good mileage. It smokes a little
Speaker 1: bit when you start it. But I mean other than that,
Speaker 1: but yeah, it works okay, And.
Speaker 3: We don't you always tell those people, wow, our equipment
Speaker 3: works great, works great.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah you say yeah. Yeah. So anyway, so let's
Speaker 1: start over again and read the same emails that we
Speaker 1: read earlier. Amazing, but they are really good, So Alexa
Speaker 1: writes in she says, Oh my god, Hi guys, my
Speaker 1: name is Lexi. I'm twenty six years old them and
Speaker 1: listening to you guys since the beginning of my time, Dave.
Speaker 1: I remember when I first got on the Internet, one
Speaker 1: of the first things I did was Google a picture
Speaker 1: of you, and to my surprise, you were not the overweight,
Speaker 1: white haired man I pictured for many years that I
Speaker 1: had in my head. That's a great thing. I'm also
Speaker 1: sad to hear about your sweet girl, Josie. My heart
Speaker 1: aches for you often. My two year old black lab
Speaker 1: Porter is the love of my life and I can
Speaker 1: not imagine a waking moment without her by my side.
Speaker 1: So much love to you. Porter. What a great name
Speaker 1: for a girl dog.
Speaker 2: I love a good beard name.
Speaker 1: And she sends a picture of Porters a black labb.
Speaker 1: If you've been paying attention, I didn't mentioned.
Speaker 2: Black lab black flab.
Speaker 1: And there's a picture of Porter. He's wet because I
Speaker 1: thinks wet. She's wet, and because I think she works
Speaker 1: at a hatchery, because hatchery works at a hatch or no,
Speaker 1: fuck you goddamn it, no, I'm confused. Lexi works at
Speaker 1: a hatch. Reporter must hang out with her there because
Speaker 1: there's porter wet faced on a boat. So let's talk
Speaker 1: about the hatchery. Let's get down to this one, she says, Bailey,
Speaker 1: sweet pea, you hold a special place in my heart.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why. Last year I was working for
Speaker 1: the Idaho Fishing Game add a fish hatchery and would
Speaker 1: listen to you guys on iHeart. That was around the
Speaker 1: time you started filling in on the show. And man,
Speaker 1: there was something about you on the show that really
Speaker 1: filled my heart with joy and made me feel like
Speaker 1: I had friends from home while I was sweeping fish
Speaker 1: poop out of the raceways in the middle of nowhere.
Speaker 1: Idaho raceways must be an industry term where the fish swim.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, you added such a great voyage
Speaker 1: to the show and I can't imagine you without you.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Do you think people are coming around, because you know,
Speaker 1: when people start on the show, they go I hate Fallon,
Speaker 1: I hate Lena, I hate Corey. They hated me when
Speaker 1: I first got here. Yeah, do you feel like people
Speaker 1: are come like getting accustomed or what's the word with
Speaker 1: you used to me?
Speaker 2: They're going to use to me.
Speaker 1: That's a simple word.
Speaker 2: Becoming fond. Yes.
Speaker 3: I So last week we posted the thing on our
Speaker 3: social media about like where would you want to sit
Speaker 3: on the plane, and like who would you want to
Speaker 3: sit by of the four of us? And I feel
Speaker 3: like that this is stupid, that that like airplane post
Speaker 3: really made me feel better about people liking me, because
Speaker 3: I I did get a ton of hate, like right
Speaker 3: at the beginning, for quite a few months, and now
Speaker 3: I've been here like nine months, and people were like, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I want to sit by Bailey because she has the
Speaker 3: best stories, or I want to sit by Bailly and
Speaker 3: Dave because they're so funny. I want to sit by
Speaker 3: Bailly and Jenny because girl time or whatever. And it
Speaker 3: was really nice to see how many people wanted to
Speaker 3: sit by me on a plane.
Speaker 1: And I think that's true. I think that whenever there's change,
Speaker 1: people will be pissed. And I'm going to be really
Speaker 1: flat out honest with you. But when Jenny called in
Speaker 1: sick today, my first thought was, oh, God, I hope
Speaker 1: she's feeling okay. I wonder if it's her anxiety firing
Speaker 1: up or whether she's got you know, something flu or whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But then, because this is the way I think. I thought,
Speaker 1: what if Jenny has a job interview for another radio
Speaker 1: station and she's taken the day off. Now, that's not
Speaker 1: likely because I think Jenny might be a little bit
Speaker 1: upfront with me about that. But then I don't know,
Speaker 1: So then my head starts going around like, Okay, well
Speaker 1: what if Jenny left the show the same thing. It's
Speaker 1: such a pattern that's so predictable, and I'm not blaming anybody,
Speaker 1: but the pattern is always, Oh well that sucks, I'll
Speaker 1: never listen to the show again. Yeah, Oh, it's never
Speaker 1: going to be the same again. Oh well, Jenny made
Speaker 1: the show. It's never going to be the same again.
Speaker 1: When Drake left, No diss on Drake. I really don't
Speaker 1: think Drake made the show, and he was a good contributor,
Speaker 1: but I would It would be stressed for me to
Speaker 1: say Drake made the show, but there were people who
Speaker 1: say Drake made the show. I'm not going to listen
Speaker 1: anymore Steve. When Steve left, he was here for sixteen years.
Speaker 1: So Jenny, you better not have a fucking job interview
Speaker 1: today and leave the show because I don't want to
Speaker 1: deal with that.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Well, there's only one constant in life. And
Speaker 2: that's change.
Speaker 1: They're gonna say, Dave, Dave, Yeah for now, wait for now?
Speaker 3: What do you know.
Speaker 1: Anyway? Ps at the hatchery, I did not watch fish
Speaker 1: pro create all day. Sorry to ruin that dream of
Speaker 1: year's Dave, because I said, one day I want to
Speaker 1: retire work at a fish hatchery. You said why, I said,
Speaker 1: someone wants the fish getting on. That'd be kind of hot.
Speaker 1: It's kind of making me horny just think about it now.
Speaker 2: See.
Speaker 3: I think it would be fun to go to a
Speaker 3: fish hatchery in general, because I've never been to one.
Speaker 3: I have no idea what they do there. It would
Speaker 3: be an entirely brand new learning experience.
Speaker 1: I actually have, now that you bring it up. I
Speaker 1: went to one in Great Falls, Montana, and I don't
Speaker 1: know with the technological differences now is a long time ago.
Speaker 1: They're big pools. They look like a big round pool. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they have a whirlpool current, so the fish always feel
Speaker 1: like they have something to swim against.
Speaker 2: What are they four?
Speaker 1: Oh for like for either putting in streams and rivers
Speaker 1: and lakes and things like that. So they're a hatchery nut.
Speaker 1: So you can, you know, put it in the freezer
Speaker 1: down at cub but so they can stalk lakes and
Speaker 1: rivers and that type, I believe.
Speaker 2: So, yeah, I had no.
Speaker 3: So it's like, so it would be kind of the
Speaker 3: same thing if we were like, hey, we're getting low
Speaker 3: on birds, so we would have a bird hattery and
Speaker 3: then just let them loose.
Speaker 1: I think. I mean, there's never that. There's got to
Speaker 1: be commercial hatcheries too, now that I think about it, Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you know, you'll say like wild caught salmon, and
Speaker 1: like Jenny was harping the other day like not I
Speaker 1: only eat wild caught salmon and cage free eggs. I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: but you're still killing the salmon and killing the eggs.
Speaker 1: So but I think that there are fish hatchery salmon
Speaker 1: and fish hatchery trout.
Speaker 3: Huh.
Speaker 1: And so I don't know. Maybe maybe Lexi.
Speaker 2: Can write to us, Yeah, LEXI tell us what a
Speaker 2: hot tree is for.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think it's for stalking, especially when you
Speaker 1: work at the game department. She works at Fish and Game,
Speaker 1: So interesting, she said, Although part of my job was
Speaker 1: to spawn fish, which required retrieving milt, which is sperm
Speaker 1: from the males and eggs, can you imagine how what
Speaker 1: a difficult job that would be to jack off a fish.
Speaker 1: I mean, you got to find a little fish dick
Speaker 1: and jack him off.
Speaker 3: You show them a little picture of like big old boobies,
Speaker 3: fish boobies.
Speaker 2: You're like, hey, check this out, and then.
Speaker 1: You give a little jerk off and then he comes
Speaker 1: into like a little petry dish or something. Well, then
Speaker 1: you move on to the next one.
Speaker 2: So I'm sorry you have to go through that anyway.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you get this fish sperm, but whatever,
Speaker 1: and she said, then you got to get eggs from
Speaker 1: the female broodstock. Anyway. I could talk all day about
Speaker 1: anything with you guys, but I'll leave it at that.
Speaker 1: I love you and I hope you have the best
Speaker 1: day ever. Love Lex and Lex. She sends in pictures
Speaker 1: of herself and she is probably she looks like a model.
Speaker 1: She's probably twenty eight ish years old. I'm not good
Speaker 1: at this.
Speaker 2: Did you say she was twenty six in her email?
Speaker 1: Did she say?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Uh? So?
Speaker 2: Sheld wow.
Speaker 1: Well I also said she looks like a model, so
Speaker 1: you know, I was off by two years. And in
Speaker 1: this one she's holding what looks like a sawkey salmon.
Speaker 2: Now I made that up.
Speaker 1: I don't know what the fish is that she's holding.
Speaker 1: But she's holding a large live fish.
Speaker 2: Cool.
Speaker 1: You know, my cousin Myron holds the world record for
Speaker 1: sawguy caught through the ice.
Speaker 3: Yes, I remember you telling me that and I had
Speaker 3: to google saguy. I think it was on a Minnesota
Speaker 3: goodbye like a year ago, and we talked about it
Speaker 3: for like an hour.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, it doesn't come up very often, but
Speaker 1: it's just such a family fun fact. My cousin, Myron Kibbler.
Speaker 1: Look it up. He holds the world record for saguy,
Speaker 1: which is a cross between a saga and a walleye,
Speaker 1: and he caught it through the ice twenty thirty years ago.
Speaker 3: You should be in the museum, the Freshwater Fish Museum
Speaker 3: that's in Wisconsin. If he's not already, it might be because
Speaker 3: I went to that this fall. Honestly, super fascinating. I
Speaker 3: was surprised there fish everywhere. It was so cool.
Speaker 1: I'm surprised that you went there. I mean, was this
Speaker 1: Dungeons and dragon shop nosed or what trip was like?
Speaker 3: If you want to go to something that's kind of
Speaker 3: like dorky and fun, like, go to this fish museum.
Speaker 3: And it was so funny. They had like a giant
Speaker 3: fish outside that you could walk into. Okay, but then
Speaker 3: the whole museum itself just had a ton of fish.
Speaker 1: When did you go there, October? I remember seeing a
Speaker 1: picture from there. Yeah, yeah, so we post a picture.
Speaker 3: So cool.
Speaker 1: Next one, Kelly writes in Hello there, morning crew. I
Speaker 1: wonder if there's anybody else there like me that's making
Speaker 1: little mental notes or sticky notes in your head about
Speaker 1: what they can write in about when they finally have
Speaker 1: a minute to write into the Minnesota Goodbye. With that
Speaker 1: being said, I have finally found that minute I wanted
Speaker 1: to write. In response to jan Nita's rant about a
Speaker 1: month ago or so ago when she was talking about
Speaker 1: people that take forever to back out of a parking spot, Well, sorry,
Speaker 1: wan Nita, but I'm gonna have to admit that I'm
Speaker 1: one of those people that's gonna pish you the hell off.
Speaker 1: I'm a mom of a one and a half year
Speaker 1: old and a three year old, and sometimes that little
Speaker 1: extra time I get to spend in my parking lot
Speaker 1: in my car doing absolutely nothing is the only time
Speaker 1: I get, only me time I get. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: might be scrolling on my phone checking my grocery list
Speaker 1: to see where my next stop should be, answering texts
Speaker 1: or calls because I'm not messing around on my phone
Speaker 1: while I'm actively out running errands. And I got my
Speaker 1: kids and if they're strapped in, I don't got to
Speaker 1: worry about them, so I get a few minutes. So yes,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take time. And if I see somebody hind
Speaker 1: me with their blinker on trying to rush me out
Speaker 1: of me time, you sure as hell better believe I'm
Speaker 1: gonna sit there even longer, because why should you be
Speaker 1: allowed to rush me out? But I can't slow you down.
Speaker 1: The day before, when Nita sent in a rant, I
Speaker 1: had the exact opposite rant in my car while another
Speaker 1: vehicle just circled the spot while I was in like
Speaker 1: a vulture, even though there were other levels on the
Speaker 1: ramp that they could go up. Let's hope want Ee
Speaker 1: and I don't end up in the same parking lot.
Speaker 1: Ha ha. On another note, regarding parents sitting in the
Speaker 1: first class section of the airplane with their baby, I
Speaker 1: think it's perfectly okay. The parents don't know. The parent
Speaker 1: didn't know their baby was gonna cry, and likely got
Speaker 1: the seats to have a bit more room, specifically to
Speaker 1: care for their baby and all the things that come
Speaker 1: with it. I've never traveled with my kiddos, but I
Speaker 1: definitely get first class if I could afford it. Also,
Speaker 1: first class isn't much of a thing anymore. Business class
Speaker 1: is the place to be nowadays.
Speaker 2: What's the difference?
Speaker 1: Well, here she explains it. My husband and I got
Speaker 1: business class for our honeymoon, and you get your own
Speaker 1: little pod area that you can lay all the way
Speaker 1: back and relax. Would I bring my baby in there?
Speaker 1: Just bb Anyway, I don't want to empty my entire
Speaker 1: sticky note list in just one email. So I suppose
Speaker 1: this is where I will leave you today. By from Kelly.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that's what business class was Carson when
Speaker 1: he was on the lou tour that they flew kind
Speaker 1: of all over the world in business class, and Carson
Speaker 1: would send a picture of himself, you know, at twenty two,
Speaker 1: twenty three years old, laying back on like a like
Speaker 1: a couch with a TV and a refrigerator, at a
Speaker 1: golf simulator and a you know, I mean, it was
Speaker 1: like it was like, Wow, that's kind of cool. That
Speaker 1: apparently is business classness class.
Speaker 3: It's interesting that that's kind of fancier than first class.
Speaker 3: Just you wouldn't think business versus first.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have thought so either, because first is first.
Speaker 2: Now I want to sit in business class.
Speaker 1: Well, I really like first class. We've sat there a
Speaker 1: few times. There have been a couple of times where
Speaker 1: we said let's just spring for it. Yeah, and other times,
Speaker 1: because you know, we fly enough, that were like diamond
Speaker 1: something or other. I don't understand all that, but it's like, okay,
Speaker 1: you can upgrade to first class. Here's the experience in
Speaker 1: first class. You get to get on first Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: that's one thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: While you're sitting there, you're in a more comfortable chair.
Speaker 1: Instead of three across, it's two across.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 1: You get a bigger arm rest, so you both have
Speaker 1: an arm rest. There's a cup holder built into the seat.
Speaker 1: You get a little bit more leg room. They bring
Speaker 1: you coke zero or cocktails or wine while you're waiting,
Speaker 1: and then while the plane's in flight, you get your
Speaker 1: cocktails and diet coke for free.
Speaker 3: Oh really cocktails for free?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, man, I would get shit faced on that plane.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean it probably would maybe one day
Speaker 1: you should maybe, And I think that's kind of about
Speaker 1: it's just more spacious.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And they usually only let first class people use the
Speaker 1: lavatory up front.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because they got the little curtain and.
Speaker 1: They get the curve. Yeah. So if you can spring
Speaker 1: for it, if your honeymoon or an anniversary and you
Speaker 1: can afford it, I'd say spring for it, just to
Speaker 1: kind of experience it. We don't fly first class that often,
Speaker 1: trust me, because I don't mind sitting back in coach. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't mind.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't. I mean it's it's much.
Speaker 1: It's not horrible.
Speaker 3: A small amount of time in my life. Like even
Speaker 3: when I flew to London, I rode coach because I'm poor.
Speaker 3: But it only bothered me on the way back because
Speaker 3: we had a bank of four seats in the middle
Speaker 3: of the plane and the lady sitting next to me
Speaker 3: took up the three seats.
Speaker 1: Who's sitting next to you, so it was.
Speaker 3: Four seats and it was me this woman. Yeah, so
Speaker 3: I was on the aisle. This woman was sitting next
Speaker 3: to me, and then the two seats next to her
Speaker 3: were open, and so I assumed she would move down
Speaker 3: to the other side.
Speaker 1: Of the air and she didn't.
Speaker 3: No. She what she did was she put down. She
Speaker 3: put up all of the armrests so that she could
Speaker 3: lay down on all three seats. But I couldn't call
Speaker 3: her out for it because she didn't speak English and
Speaker 3: she seemed like a nice lady, so I didn't want
Speaker 3: to annoy her or be upset.
Speaker 1: That's interesting. Was it that rude? Or was that okay?
Speaker 2: Isn't that?
Speaker 3: It was so weird too, as when she laid down,
Speaker 3: her feet touched me so like I didn't even have
Speaker 3: my own seat to myself because she was in it.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's really interesting to me, so weird. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to think whether that's rude. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, were open next to me, I probably
Speaker 3: wouldn't have laid down, but you.
Speaker 1: Would have moved over. I would have moved on, would
Speaker 1: have moved over. And I think maybe the right answer
Speaker 1: would be sitting the opposite aisle seat, yes, and then
Speaker 1: lean over. Now you're in two seats, in two seats.
Speaker 2: So I can have two seats. But she didn't. She
Speaker 2: laid down on all three seats.
Speaker 1: It's funny how, just like how people, some people just
Speaker 1: don't feel that way, and it was only.
Speaker 2: When she was napping. When she wasn't she was sitting
Speaker 2: in the seat directly next to me.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: Move.
Speaker 1: We flew all the way to Japan six years ago,
Speaker 1: back in coach and we were fine. And that's like
Speaker 1: a fourteen hour flight something like that. And it's one
Speaker 1: of those flights where you get on it and you're
Speaker 1: in for the long haul. Yeah, and you pull out
Speaker 1: your switch, and you pull out your puzzle book, and
Speaker 1: you pull out your magazine, and you pull out three movies.
Speaker 2: On the way to London. Yeah, there on the way back,
Speaker 2: three movies.
Speaker 1: And that's a Does it ever frighten you? And this
Speaker 1: is the thing that frightens me about overseas flight. The
Speaker 1: engines go out, you got nowhere to land? Yeah? Does
Speaker 1: that ever occur to you? I mean dozens or hundreds
Speaker 1: or thousands of flights happened between here and Australia and
Speaker 1: Japan and Hawaii and London and France every day.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: You never hear about a plane, like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: running out of gas or having an engine go out
Speaker 1: over the middle of the Atlantic. Yeah, but that is
Speaker 1: one thing that when I do fly that way, it
Speaker 1: worries me a little bit.
Speaker 3: I always think, you know, if the plane goes down,
Speaker 3: I'd rather it hit the ocean than hit a building
Speaker 3: or something, because I feel like if it hit the
Speaker 3: ground or hit a building, I would die instantly.
Speaker 2: If it hit the ocean, I could float.
Speaker 3: Maybe, and hopefully someone would find out that we were
Speaker 3: there and they could come rescue OUs.
Speaker 1: Okay, let me give you a little dose of reality.
Speaker 2: Oh no, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: The ocean as you're thinking of it is flat. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well it's not. It's covered with waves and troughs and
Speaker 1: things like that. So if the plane is coming down,
Speaker 1: it's going to hit one of those waves or troughs
Speaker 1: at probably about two hundred miles an hour, breaking the
Speaker 1: plane into a b
