However, maybe you do something that you grow 16 00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:47.719 it out until this happens. 17 00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:49.520 So what would this be for you? 18 00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.679 Like like a lot of people will grow out their 19 00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:55.000 beards until they're oh I. 20 00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:58.000 See, Like I say, yeah, whatever. 21 00:00:57.719 --> 00:00:59.640 It is, okay, So it's like, what could it be 22 00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:01.479 for you?

Just saying let's dive 32 00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:33.680 into the emails on the Minnesota Goodbye Hello Dave. Jenny 33 00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:36.560 Bailey vaught from Charis. She says, I want to comment 34 00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.359 on something Dave mentioned yesterday in the podcast. My mom 35 00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:43.400 was the only parent my sister and I had. When 36 00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:46.400 she passed away in twenty twelve, I was thirty three, 37 00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:48.560 and I felt like I was six, and I felt 38 00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:50.480 like my world was ending and my life was over, 39 00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:53.280 and I didn't know what to do without my mom. Now, 40 00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:55.280 I'm not saying this for pity. She had been ill 41 00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:57.400 for a while and we knew it was coming. She 42 00:01:57.439 --> 00:01:59.079 had cancer, by the way, so it was not a 43 00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:02.879 surprise when she asked away, even knowing that it was coming. 44 00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:05.760 She told me not to be sad, and I had 45 00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:08.639 to keep living and I had to be strong for 46 00:02:08.719 --> 00:02:10.560 my two girls, who were only two years old in 47 00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:14.120 five months when she died. So, Dave, you were absolutely 48 00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.759 correct about parents wanting their kids to be sad for 49 00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:19.840 a time but then go on living. I'm still sad. 50 00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:22.680 I miss my mom every day and my oldest daughter 51 00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:24.960 is so much like her, but I made myself go on. 52 00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:27.719 Listening to your show every day makes me happy. Love 53 00:02:27.759 --> 00:02:30.639 you guys, all right. I don't know how it came 54 00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:32.520 up yesterday, but I was talking about how a friend 55 00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:35.919 of mine knowner since junior high and don't know her 56 00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.120 well anymore, but her parents died around the same time 57 00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:42.240 ten years ago, and she has just let it devastate 58 00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:46.360 her life. Everything is sad. Everything is just sad because 59 00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:48.240 she can't get past it. And I don't know that 60 00:02:48.280 --> 00:02:50.000 I've told her this, but maybe I haven't. I said 61 00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:52.919 it on the podcast Your Parents. Being a parent myself, 62 00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:57.400 you would be so sad to know that when you died, 63 00:02:57.479 --> 00:03:00.919 your child could never be happy again, or refuse to 64 00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:04.520 really be happy, or refuse to laugh again. I remember 65 00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:07.719 Billy Crystal did a show called five hundred Saturdays or 66 00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:09.360 something like that. Have you heard of it? No, the 67 00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:12.199 one man Show, and basically it was about how his 68 00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:14.439 dad died when he was like twelve, so he only 69 00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:17.000 got five hundred Saturdays. Now my math is wrong, so 70 00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:20.520 don't add it up. So but Billy Crystal said, I 71 00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:23.280 was never really happy after my dad died. Until I 72 00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:25.719 went to college and got on the college radio station 73 00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:29.080 for the first time since my dad died, I was happy, 74 00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:32.080 And I thought that's really sad because his dad would 75 00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:36.639 be just fucking heartbroken knowing that his little boy could 76 00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:40.680 never be happy once dad was gone. Now a little kid, 77 00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:42.479 you can't say, hey, be happy. Dad would want you 78 00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:44.280 to be happy. But you know, if you're a thirty 79 00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:46.039 four year old or a forty four year old or 80 00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:48.439 a sixty four year old and you lose your parents, 81 00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:54.080 they would be fucking heartbroken if they thought you cannot 82 00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:57.840 get over it. So do them a favor and don't 83 00:03:57.840 --> 00:03:59.599 get over it, but be happy. 84 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:00.960 Try your best. 85 00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:03.680 I will say, from like someone who deals with a 86 00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:06.159 lot of mental health issues, I think that that's easier 87 00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:08.319 said than done for some people who deal with grief 88 00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:12.560 and depression and anxiety, because I do think that I 89 00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:15.479 will struggle a lot when my parents pass away, like 90 00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:18.959 much more than the average person. And it's not that 91 00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:21.160 I don't understand that like my parents will want me 92 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:24.240 to be happy. It's just that, like my brain doesn't 93 00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:28.519 work that way. My brain will like think of everything 94 00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:31.279 and how they're not there for it anymore and stuff 95 00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:33.959 like that. So it's like, and I get that eventually, 96 00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:36.759 time heals a little bit. It doesn't like heal you. 97 00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:38.439 It heals a little bit. But I do think it's 98 00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:40.639 a little harder said than done. 99 00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:43.240 Well, true, but you're not a parent, So I'm giving 100 00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:46.160 you my perspective that, yes, you're right. It's easier to 101 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.600 say it's like cheer up, well, good luck, cheer up right, 102 00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:52.560 That doesn't work that way. But maybe it's a little 103 00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.079 bit of consolation to say I'm a parent, and I 104 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.879 know if I knew that Carson, I think Alison will 105 00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:00.720 be okay. I think Chase will be okay. I think 106 00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:03.240 Beth would be like, where's my money? Yeah? How much 107 00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:05.319 do I make in the will? But Carson, I think 108 00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:08.079 will be devastated. And if he's not going to be pissed, 109 00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.120 but he can't be devastated for like six years, Yeah, you. 110 00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:12.279 Do know what I mean do to haunt him. If 111 00:05:12.279 --> 00:05:14.959 he's not devastated, you're gonna come down and I'm. 112 00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:16.800 Gonna come back. Oh yeah, I'm gonna come back and 113 00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:22.160 like surprise him in the shower. You're right, you're right, 114 00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:24.360 that's weird. Okay, you're right. I'm gonna surprise him while 115 00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:27.959 he's making love. But you're like, oh, hey, ho, hey, 116 00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:29.920 hell you what what are you doing there? Just to 117 00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:30.920 fucking freak him out? 118 00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:33.079 Yeah? You know, yeah, I. 119 00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:33.759 Haven't thought it through. 120 00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:39.959 Don't give expect I mean ideas though, But okay, we'll expectations. 121 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:41.439 We will work on what you're going to do to 122 00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:42.079 haunt Carson. 123 00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:48.680 Okay, I am going to play one Nita's rant, but 124 00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:50.759 I got to push a couple of buttons here first 125 00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:53.360 to make sure I've got this right. So this is pushed. 126 00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:56.759 That's pushed, This is pushed. Here is your weekly rant 127 00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:58.480 from Waneda that this. 128 00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.439 Is the reason why you're my best rip. So I 129 00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:04.040 sent this clip because I thought about this when I 130 00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.120 heard b Bailey and Jenny say that I would be 131 00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:07.800 the one to help bury the body, and you're right, 132 00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:11.920 I would. But here's my rant for this week. So 133 00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:14.240 I s my son went to go play wanted to 134 00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:16.439 go watch his friend play basketball, and it was gonna 135 00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:18.839 cost them ten dollars to get in. So I stopped 136 00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:20.519 at the gas say, she got a couple celsias in 137 00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:22.680 the back of sunflower seeds came up to ten dollars 138 00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:25.279 and seven cents. So I'm like, cool, I give her 139 00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:27.160 twenty dollars and seven cents. She give me a ten 140 00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:31.040 dollar bill back. I'm on my way. Nope, so I 141 00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:34.720 gave her the twenty dollars and seven cents. She looks 142 00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:36.399 at me and she goes, well, I can't you gave 143 00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:38.680 me too much. I said, oh, I gave you the 144 00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:40.560 seven cents cause I don't want ninety three cents back 145 00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:43.560 and change. She goes, why we can't do that. I'm like, 146 00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.000 why the hell not? She goes, because that's gonna throw 147 00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:47.879 my register off. So I looked at the guy that 148 00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:49.959 was sitting the line behind me, and he just looked 149 00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.079 at me and sh and shook his head and shrugged 150 00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:54.800 his shoulders. So I'm like, how the hell is that 151 00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:58.199 gonna make your register off? And she goes because it 152 00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:01.600 once I pushed this button, it's gonna spit your change out. 153 00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:03.600 But if I put the seven cents in there, then 154 00:07:03.639 --> 00:07:06.560 it's gonna throw my register off. I said, But if 155 00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:09.600 you don't hit that button. You just hit twenty oh seven. 156 00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:12.399 It's not gonna spin any change out, and you can 157 00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.759 just give me a fucking ten dollar bill back. She goes, well, no, 158 00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:18.560 I can't do that. This girl could have been no 159 00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:21.079 more than about eighteen nineteen years old. I almost called 160 00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:22.680 her a bitch, but I said, no, this is somebody's 161 00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:24.759 got so I'm not gonna disrespect her. But you can 162 00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.040 just imagine I called her all kind of names in 163 00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:30.040 my head. What the fuck are they learning in school, Harry? 164 00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:33.519 You're not learning any math because you can't count. How 165 00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:35.639 the hell is that gonna throw your register off? So 166 00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:37.279 I said, fuck it, I'm not gonna go back and 167 00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:39.279 forth with you on this. Just give me a goddamn 168 00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:42.680 change so I can be on my way. So, as 169 00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:45.079 you know, I stormed out of the store because what 170 00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:47.680 she pissed me the fuck off. So I get in 171 00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:49.600 the truck and I gave my son the nine dollars 172 00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:51.680 in the change. He looks at me and he goes, mom, 173 00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:53.720 why'd you give me all this change? I said, boy, 174 00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:57.720 not today, not today. Well that's my ride for this week. 175 00:07:57.839 --> 00:07:59.600 I love you guys, bye. 176 00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:02.519 Love you back. That is kind of funny that I'm 177 00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:04.879 gonna be honest with you. That always confused me because 178 00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:07.319 we did a like a problem day with that in 179 00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:09.839 math in about fifth grade. It's like, Okay, the bill 180 00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:14.560 comes to a dollar ninety three, I'm going to give 181 00:08:14.600 --> 00:08:19.959 you two dollars and three cents. Why am I going 182 00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:21.560 to give you two dollars and three. 183 00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:23.360 Cents so that you can get a dime back? 184 00:08:23.439 --> 00:08:26.519 So the dime is I didn't. I had trouble understanding 185 00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:29.879 that that was weird. That was weird to me. I 186 00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:32.080 feel like it's I get it now. It was weird. 187 00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:33.639 It's hard if you don't have the change in front 188 00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:37.399 of you to figure it out. But also, like I know, 189 00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:39.279 I feel the same way as Wanita because I used 190 00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:42.080 to work in retail and it gets to a point 191 00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:45.440 where you like memorize what like you can get back, 192 00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:46.200 so makes it. 193 00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:49.159 Then I would ask people like do you have seven cents? 194 00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:49.559 Yes? 195 00:08:49.799 --> 00:08:52.600 And then I could do it that way. But what 196 00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:55.480 I hated was once I entered it into the system, 197 00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:57.759 if somebody gave me like a twenty dollars bill and 198 00:08:57.840 --> 00:08:59.960 it was like thirteen fifty three, they give me a twenty. 199 00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:01.919 I entered in and then they say, hold on, I 200 00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:05.879 have two quarters, but it's not the exact change throws 201 00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:06.279 me off. 202 00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:09.480 I'm like, oh difficult, I can't do it. 203 00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:11.080 And they're just like, just count the change back, and 204 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:12.759 I'm like, I was never taught how to count the 205 00:09:12.840 --> 00:09:15.039 change back. I do not know how to do that. 206 00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:17.600 It's not gonna happen for me. Just let me give 207 00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:18.320 you change. 208 00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:20.799 Did you ever? This is funny because I remember when 209 00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:25.440 I was a kid very clearly wanting to get change back, 210 00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:27.200 and I could never figure out why I didn't get 211 00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:28.879 change back. So I don't know what I was buying. 212 00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:31.000 But let's say I was buying a twenty five cent 213 00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:33.799 candy bar. I'd give him a quarter and I wouldn't 214 00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:35.960 get my change, get any change. But I'd watch my 215 00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.039 mom get changed back, and I was like, why don't 216 00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:41.519 I They don't give me any money back, and I 217 00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:44.759 didn't know why. And my dad told me that he 218 00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.759 did the same thing when he was a kid. He 219 00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:51.360 couldn't figure out why he wouldn't get change back. You'd 220 00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:53.240 give him a die, you know, back then you buy 221 00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:56.440 like a new pair of shoes for a dime or whatever, 222 00:09:56.919 --> 00:09:58.679 And so he give him a dime, and he'd be like, 223 00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:01.240 where's my change. Another thing, my dad told me he 224 00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:03.519 once about an all day sucker. You ever heard of 225 00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:05.200 an all day sucker? No, they don't really call him 226 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:07.399 that anymore. It's a giant lollipop. 227 00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:08.720 Okay, Oh yeah, yeah, I. 228 00:10:08.679 --> 00:10:09.080 Know what that is. 229 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:11.480 Yeah, and he was disappointed because it didn't last all day. 230 00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:13.639 And I thought that was very cute. You think my 231 00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:15.639 dad was once such a little boy that he was 232 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:18.200 like five years old and bought an all day sucker, yeah, 233 00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:21.519 which is probably a sucker the diameter of a hockey puck. Yeah, 234 00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:24.639 a large sucker. Yeah, And he was disappointed and didn't 235 00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:28.240 last all day. He's like, oh, nah, all right, next one, 236 00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.879 Hannah says, Oh, she says, don't say my name. Well, 237 00:10:30.879 --> 00:10:32.480 I'm not going to say your last name, so people 238 00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:36.080 won't know who you are. Pertaining to kids talking back, 239 00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:38.799 My kids are great and really sweet, but my husband 240 00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:41.120 works sixty hours a week and I stay home, so 241 00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:43.399 it's me and my kids a lot. For the most part, 242 00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:45.759 I handle it, but every once in a while they 243 00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:48.240 definitely need daddy to step in and set it straight 244 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:51.559 if they get too mouthy. He tells that they cannot speak. 245 00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:53.360 He tells him that they cannot speak to me in 246 00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.440 that way, and it definitely snaps them back to reality 247 00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:57.559 when they get really mouthy. And then he sticks up 248 00:10:57.559 --> 00:11:00.519 for me and the manage they respect me. Ah, that 249 00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:02.840 man does it for me. Sometimes. It seems like kids 250 00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:05.120 need it every once in a while from someone who 251 00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:09.399 isn't their primary caregiver. I think that's true because you 252 00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:13.919 get so used to your mama or your daddy scolding you. 253 00:11:14.759 --> 00:11:18.240 But if grandma does it, yes, then it's a different story. 254 00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:22.399 You don't disrespect grandma, but I would never you would. 255 00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:23.679 Oh, you should see my mom. 256 00:11:23.799 --> 00:11:27.039 So I have a my niece, my sister, and my 257 00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:30.519 sister's spouse, and my dad, especially my dad, let her 258 00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:34.960 do whatever she wants. You say that again, So my sister, well, 259 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:38.759 my sister, my sister's spouse, and my dad let my niece, 260 00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:40.879 my sister's daughter do whatever she wants. 261 00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:43.320 Oh and so even your sister does. 262 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.600 Yeah, Like I mean, she occasionally is like, hey, don't 263 00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.080 do that, that's not nice or whatever. But if my 264 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:54.080 mom witnesses my niece like hit somebody, she'll be like, 265 00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:56.679 we do not hit. She'll like turn into this like 266 00:11:56.840 --> 00:11:59.279 devil woman. Yeah, but somebody has to. 267 00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:01.960 Well, why is it your sister does become. 268 00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:04.960 I mean she probably does, but like it's it's more 269 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:07.840 like a okay, buddy, let's not do that, Like stop 270 00:12:07.919 --> 00:12:11.039 that now unless she's being really bad. Okay, But like 271 00:12:11.120 --> 00:12:13.840 my dad will just let this child hit him and 272 00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:16.480 he'll be like, oh, it's fine, it's it's nothing, it 273 00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:17.080 doesn't hurt. 274 00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:20.000 Yeah, but she's learning to that hitting is mine. 275 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:24.200 Yes, And you'll learn boundaries. You learn not only specific boundaries, 276 00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:26.360 but the fact that there are boundaries. 277 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:28.799 My dad loves to enable, but my mom will have 278 00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:29.360 none of it. 279 00:12:29.759 --> 00:12:31.279 I think that's good because I think one of the 280 00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:33.519 reasons that I turned out to be a moderately responsible 281 00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:36.240 adult is because there were serious boundaries in my house, 282 00:12:36.759 --> 00:12:40.320 especially with my dad. And to even learn that there 283 00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:43.960 are boundaries is a very valuable tool. And I think 284 00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:45.919 a lot of kids grow up not knowing that they 285 00:12:45.960 --> 00:12:48.200 are boundaries, and that's why they are bad in school, 286 00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:51.840 bad in class, bad after school, bad when they're an adult. 287 00:12:51.960 --> 00:12:56.240 So they go on to say, Dave, are you taking 288 00:12:56.399 --> 00:13:01.600 ukulele lessons at Bud's Music in Hopkins. Yes, I am. 289 00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:05.759 I took ukulele guitar lessons there When I was younger. 290 00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.960 My cousin teaches there, Tommy. He's such a great teacher. Yes, 291 00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:13.879 I am from Tommy. I have a ukulele lesson tonight. 292 00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:15.440 Oh fine, and I'm. 293 00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:17.279 Kind of excited about it because I've been playing for 294 00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:19.639 about eight years or so and I'm plateaued and I'm 295 00:13:19.639 --> 00:13:21.039 not getting better, and i want to figure out how 296 00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:25.720 to get better. So thank you for that email. Next one, 297 00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:32.519 let's see no no to that one. Kristin back with 298 00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:35.879 another random question. What's a tourist destination or spot that 299 00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:38.519 you highly recommend? And on the other side, what is 300 00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:40.639 one that you think is overrated and not worth seeing. 301 00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:43.039 I wish I had some stories to share, but I don't. 302 00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:47.360 Haven't been fortunate enough to travel a lot. Someday, Thanks guys, 303 00:13:47.399 --> 00:13:52.919 springtime dart licking season From Kristin. I will say Black Hills. 304 00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:58.879 Black Hills are like another world and it's a nine 305 00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:01.320 hour drive away or not even I don't know how 306 00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:03.759 far it is. Love the Black Hills. There's so much 307 00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:07.440 to see. There's history, there's scenery, there's luxury, there's simplicity. 308 00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:13.840 There's food, there's fast food. Black Hills are an amazing 309 00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:17.240 place just nine short hours away. And it's not just 310 00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.960 one thing to do. There's so many things to do. 311 00:14:21.440 --> 00:14:27.200 Bear Country, USA, or the Mystery Spot, or Cosmos or 312 00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:31.039 the Reptile World or the Caves. There's so much in 313 00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:35.519 the Black Hills. Wow, Mitchell, South Dakota, the Corn Palace, 314 00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:37.039 And I don't want to rip on the Corn Palace 315 00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:39.000 because that's all Mitchell has to offer. And I'm not 316 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.360 here to rip on little Mitchell, South Dakota. But you 317 00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:43.320 see signs for the Corn Palace all the way there, 318 00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:44.799 you stop and it's nothing. 319 00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:49.799 So Jenny, I would say the place I absolutely love 320 00:14:49.879 --> 00:14:52.200 is the Grand Tetons. The entire National Park is just 321 00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:55.679 absolutely beautiful. And then a place I would say never 322 00:14:55.720 --> 00:14:58.399 go to in your entire life, and I think this 323 00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:01.840 will offend people is Gatlinburg, right outside the Smokies. It's 324 00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:04.679 the most tourist trap city I've ever been in in 325 00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:06.919 my life, and since the Smokies is the most visited 326 00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:08.000 National park. 327 00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:09.200 And it's it. 328 00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:12.000 It is, oh because if you think about the national 329 00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:14.639 parks and how they're spread out throughout the United States, 330 00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:16.679 like the big Ones, the Smokies is one of the 331 00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:19.600 few ones on that side of the United States, you know. 332 00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:22.919 So it's just it's very highly visited. So Gatlinburg is 333 00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:25.279 just a shit show. And it's not my scene. I 334 00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:27.080 worked at Bubba Gums at the Mall of America for 335 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:30.799 so long, So walking into a city that's like Margeritaville, 336 00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:33.879 Bubba Gum stuff like that, Like, it's just not my vibe. 337 00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:37.200 And I know some people who love it and that's great, 338 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:39.519 but for me, I hate it. It's one of the 339 00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:42.559 only entrances into the Smokeyes, so it's busy because it's 340 00:15:42.559 --> 00:15:44.399 a tourist city on top of the fact that it's 341 00:15:44.440 --> 00:15:46.279 one of the only entrances into the smokies. 342 00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:49.759 Okay, gotcha. What's funny is like bordering Yellowstone Park, there's 343 00:15:49.799 --> 00:15:53.080 no big touristy cities there really isn't. I mean, there's 344 00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:58.039 like I think Red Redwood or something. It's on the 345 00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:02.120 north side of Yellowstone Park. And then there's Billings, which 346 00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:04.519 is one hundred or so miles away from Yellowstone Park. 347 00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:10.279 But there's no big bordering city. Yeah, okay, what so 348 00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:12.360 you say stay away from Gatlinburg, Bailey, what do you got? 349 00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:14.919 That question? Is what's worth it? And what's not worth what. 350 00:16:14.879 --> 00:16:18.320 Tourist definition destination or spot would you highly recommend, And 351 00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:20.639 then on the other side, what one is overrated not 352 00:16:20.759 --> 00:16:21.039 worth it? 353 00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:21.679 Jeez. 354 00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:24.879 I mean I don't go on a ton of vacation 355 00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:28.279 in general. Obviously, I've been to disney World a lot, 356 00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:31.559 so I would recommend disney World. But I feel like 357 00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:34.320 everyone and their mom would recommend disney World. There's not 358 00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:36.759 like a lot of unique places I've gone because all 359 00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:39.120 of my traveling I did as a kid. Like my 360 00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:40.960 mom used to travel for work and we would go 361 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:44.519 along with her. So I honestly, I don't really have 362 00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:45.559 a horse in the race. 363 00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:48.519 I never had anything in the in Minnesota that you 364 00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:51.320 can think of that you don't that I wouldn't like 365 00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:53.879 because I feel like you go to I feel like 366 00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:56.639 you're like a museum person or yeah, you love to 367 00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:59.200 see like something that is like symbolic. 368 00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:02.200 Well okay, well, I guess if we're thinking about museums, 369 00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:04.240 I used to work at Mill City Museum.

And I think they're a 372 00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:11.960 handful of museums that you can go to one time 373 00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:13.640 and you never need to go again. That is one 374 00:17:13.680 --> 00:17:16.400 of them, and I work there every day. But yeah, 375 00:17:16.440 --> 00:17:18.039 I do a lot of stuff in the city.
