WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Welcome once again to the award winning Minnesota Goodbye. We

2
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:05.599
<v Speaker 1>haven't won anything yet, but I think we will. I

3
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>think we're gonna be up for something. Totally made that up. Yeah,

4
00:00:09.119 --> 00:00:13.439
<v Speaker 1>here we go with a really really interesting email. My

5
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>name is Autumn. I need some help. I'm going to

6
00:00:16.079 --> 00:00:20.559
<v Speaker 1>Windstock on Thursday with my boyfriend and some friends. Windstock

7
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.879
<v Speaker 1>is in Winstead, Minnesota. It is a big country festival,

8
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:28.719
<v Speaker 1>camp in the mud type of a thing, and it's

9
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:33.600
<v Speaker 1>huge and I've driven by the festival grounds before and

10
00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:36.479
<v Speaker 1>it's just I mean, it's like, wow, okay, cool. My

11
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:38.520
<v Speaker 1>boyfriend and I went to Windstock for the first time

12
00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:40.840
<v Speaker 1>together last year. The campsite we stayed at had a

13
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:45.759
<v Speaker 1>wooden board on posts with holes cut in it, small

14
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:50.079
<v Speaker 1>holes to big holes, called the boobo meter. All of

15
00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.799
<v Speaker 1>the boys sat in their lawn chairs passing around a microphone,

16
00:00:52.840 --> 00:00:56.079
<v Speaker 1>offering jello shots to any woman that walked by in

17
00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:58.880
<v Speaker 1>exchange for a flash of their bare boobs in the

18
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:05.040
<v Speaker 1>holes of the boobo how demeaning. To my surprise, a

19
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>lot of women actually flashed everyone. I understand it was

20
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:11.280
<v Speaker 1>hard not to look, but seeing my boyfriend's smiling face

21
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:14.159
<v Speaker 1>while he stared at seventeen different bare boobs made me

22
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:16.640
<v Speaker 1>feel sick to my stomach. I told him how I felt,

23
00:01:16.840 --> 00:01:18.439
<v Speaker 1>to which he said he would try his best not

24
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:20.480
<v Speaker 1>to look at the women. I know they're gonna have

25
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:22.079
<v Speaker 1>the board set up again this year, and I don't

26
00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:23.719
<v Speaker 1>want my feelings to get in the way of having

27
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:25.840
<v Speaker 1>a good time. I feel like there is no way

28
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.040
<v Speaker 1>around this board. Even if we stayed at a different campsite,

29
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:31.079
<v Speaker 1>we'd still walk over there to hang out because his

30
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:34.319
<v Speaker 1>friends love to camp at that spot. My anxiety has

31
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:37.799
<v Speaker 1>been taking over about this dang board for too long.

32
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:40.840
<v Speaker 1>I feel stupid for being so butt hurt about this,

33
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:43.640
<v Speaker 1>and I am desperate to get some advice over this

34
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:48.040
<v Speaker 1>gross feeling. Maybe the boobo meter will accidentally start on

35
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:50.599
<v Speaker 1>fire this year laugh emoji. Or I'm going to make

36
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:52.640
<v Speaker 1>a ball loon meter for the men to use so

37
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>it's fair for us women. Thank you in advance, my

38
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:57.480
<v Speaker 1>apologies if it's too long, I love you guys, keep

39
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.680
<v Speaker 1>on keeping on own. Not too long at all. I'm

40
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:02.079
<v Speaker 1>going to stay out of this one and let you

41
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:05.040
<v Speaker 1>guys talk about what you want to say.

42
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, your feelings are very, very valid. I will be

43
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:13.759
<v Speaker 2>fully honest. I have done the boob of meter before country.

44
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:16.639
<v Speaker 2>Every country festival has that. It's different sizes. You put

45
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:18.479
<v Speaker 2>your boobs through if you want, and yes, they offer

46
00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:21.280
<v Speaker 2>you a shot. I was like twenty two years old

47
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.919
<v Speaker 2>back in the day single. Yeah, so I've done it.

48
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:27.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't really remember a crowd of people watching though.

49
00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:30.479
<v Speaker 2>It was usually just random people walking by. There wasn't

50
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.240
<v Speaker 2>an entire audience watching us, so that's a little bit

51
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:37.800
<v Speaker 2>different than your experience. But I do think it's okay

52
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.319
<v Speaker 2>to be upset with your boyfriend enjoying it a little

53
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:44.439
<v Speaker 2>too much. However, I would also be looking myself if

54
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:45.280
<v Speaker 2>I was near it.

55
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I would be looking at it. But

56
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:50.759
<v Speaker 3>I think the wording from your boyfriend saying I'll try

57
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:55.039
<v Speaker 3>my best not to look that, I like, if you

58
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 3>said I don't like you looking at this, he should

59
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:01.680
<v Speaker 3>be like, okay, I won't because then he can, you know,

60
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:05.080
<v Speaker 3>help out your comfort, and if your comfort is none

61
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:08.680
<v Speaker 3>is zero, then he should respect that. So I mean,

62
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:10.960
<v Speaker 3>I say, if you want to put your boobs in

63
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:12.840
<v Speaker 3>the boobometer, like, go ahead and put your boobs in

64
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:16.000
<v Speaker 3>the boobometer for a free shot. It's a free shot. Heck, yeah,

65
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:19.599
<v Speaker 3>my boobs probably wondn't fit in the boobometer. So but

66
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:24.560
<v Speaker 3>I think your boyfriend should respect your your ask of

67
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:27.599
<v Speaker 3>him to not look Okay, yeah, all.

68
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:31.639
<v Speaker 1>Right, right, next one, want to tell you guys an

69
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:35.080
<v Speaker 1>awful story from yesterday morning that will haunt my dreams.

70
00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Getting really kids ready for yesterday. And my four year

71
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:41.000
<v Speaker 1>old boy was like, Mama, what's all over your leg? Oh?

72
00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, all over my leg? I said, is it chocolate? Nope?

73
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:47.479
<v Speaker 1>Now stay with me, because your mind is going somewhere

74
00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:49.520
<v Speaker 1>in the wrong place. So I took a look and

75
00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>there was blood from his knee down to his foot.

76
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm oh, my god. I looked for a cut, no cut,

77
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:58.240
<v Speaker 1>but there was a smashed full dead tick stuck to

78
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:01.319
<v Speaker 1>the bottom of his foot. It was on the dog,

79
00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:05.360
<v Speaker 1>got full and detached. He stepped on it and it

80
00:04:05.479 --> 00:04:07.960
<v Speaker 1>launched blood all the way up his leg. I was horrified.

81
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:10.759
<v Speaker 1>We live in the woods, so ticks are unfortunately part

82
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:14.439
<v Speaker 1>of life here. So that was what happened, was blood

83
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:17.639
<v Speaker 1>from a smushtick splattered up his leg. Yeah. Yeah, gross.

84
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:20.879
<v Speaker 1>Ps myself, my six year old, four year old twins

85
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:24.040
<v Speaker 1>and eighth month old baby finally climbed the Herm and

86
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:26.439
<v Speaker 1>the German yesterday. We've lived here in New Olm for

87
00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:29.079
<v Speaker 1>ten years. I did the dang thing, trying to have

88
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.639
<v Speaker 1>a summer of just do it. Another thing off our list,

89
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 1>that's Hannah in New Ulm. Herm and the German is

90
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the giant statue that sits on the banks of the

91
00:04:37.519 --> 00:04:39.839
<v Speaker 1>Minnesota River right outside of New Olm.

92
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:41.759
<v Speaker 3>I climb that. I went to New Olm maybe like

93
00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.600
<v Speaker 3>three years ago. I climbed that, and I was so

94
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:48.160
<v Speaker 3>terrified because once you're up on the top, it's I

95
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:50.639
<v Speaker 3>don't like, there's not any really thing to hold onto.

96
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.199
<v Speaker 3>So I was just hugging the wall and it was

97
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:54.720
<v Speaker 3>windy and I felt like it was going to fall

98
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:56.639
<v Speaker 3>off of it. So, hey, power to you for climbing

99
00:04:56.639 --> 00:04:57.399
<v Speaker 3>Herman the German.

100
00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:00.759
<v Speaker 1>When you say climb it, how I ever noticed it

101
00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:02.920
<v Speaker 1>that it's worthy of Yeah.

102
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:06.120
<v Speaker 3>It's kind of like a gazebo almost, and Herman the

103
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:07.680
<v Speaker 3>German just stands on top of it.

104
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:09.720
<v Speaker 1>So like, you climb up it and it's like, how

105
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:10.720
<v Speaker 1>do you climb a hymn?

106
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:13.439
<v Speaker 3>No, So you climb the like gazebos, and.

107
00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:16.000
<v Speaker 1>It's just a really tall ice bo okay.

108
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:17.399
<v Speaker 3>And there's a lot of really steep steps, and then

109
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:20.199
<v Speaker 3>Herm and the German is like up behind you. When

110
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:22.439
<v Speaker 3>you're on the top of it and you can see

111
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:27.319
<v Speaker 3>for miles, it's really cool like from the top, but

112
00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:30.800
<v Speaker 3>it is absolutely terrifying from way up there.

113
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Now, Herman the German is based on the fact

114
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:38.000
<v Speaker 1>that New Olm was we were largely settled by Germans

115
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:41.040
<v Speaker 1>and Norwegians back in Minnesota, back in like the eighteen

116
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:45.720
<v Speaker 1>fifties or seventies or whatever. And New Olm still prides

117
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.519
<v Speaker 1>itself on its German heritage, which I think is really cool.

118
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:51.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's super cute, like little German Town. They've got

119
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:53.920
<v Speaker 3>like a big like a cuckoo clock that plays like

120
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:54.800
<v Speaker 3>little German music.

121
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm so cute. Yeah. I loved it there.

122
00:05:57.160 --> 00:05:57.920
<v Speaker 3>It was really fun.

123
00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:01.680
<v Speaker 1>I've mentioned it before. Eigels Kai is my favorite restaurant

124
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:05.560
<v Speaker 1>in Minnesota bar none. It is very authentic German food

125
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:08.959
<v Speaker 1>in a very authentic old ass setting that's probably been

126
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:12.480
<v Speaker 1>in the same building since the nineteen forties in New

127
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:13.399
<v Speaker 1>in New All.

128
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:17.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and the Shells Brewery we went on tour too. Yeah,

129
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:18.360
<v Speaker 3>I loved it there. It was so fun.

130
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:24.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, definitely recommend it very cool little town. Right, Let's see, honestly,

131
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:28.519
<v Speaker 1>that might be it some days on the Minnesota Goodbye.

132
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:30.839
<v Speaker 1>We are very short on emails, but let me see

133
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:34.480
<v Speaker 1>if I got one right here? Did we do this one?

134
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:39.000
<v Speaker 1>What is your most favorite memory childhood or adult? Oh, okay,

135
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:40.879
<v Speaker 1>that's a good one. I'm going to throw this one

136
00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:44.560
<v Speaker 1>out and I'm going to say vacations in Jordan, Montana.

137
00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:46.959
<v Speaker 1>Every year that was the highlight of our year. We

138
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:49.160
<v Speaker 1>would get in the Volkswagen bus and drive two days

139
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:52.680
<v Speaker 1>to Jordan, Montana and hang out, camp out, ride horses,

140
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:56.279
<v Speaker 1>shoot off fireworks, go on picnics, go to rodeos with

141
00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:59.160
<v Speaker 1>my cousins. In Jordan, Montana. It was the highlight of

142
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.920
<v Speaker 1>the kid year for me. That's my almost, no question

143
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:05.079
<v Speaker 1>favorite memory childhood memory.

144
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean, similarly, we used to go to Ohio. What

145
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:11.519
<v Speaker 3>we still do go to Ohio every year. I'm going

146
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:15.079
<v Speaker 3>on Thursday and we go to visit my grandma. And

147
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:17.839
<v Speaker 3>obviously when we were kids, like, it's fun because everything

148
00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:20.240
<v Speaker 3>is very wide open spaces. My grandma and grandpa had

149
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:23.120
<v Speaker 3>a golf cart. We would drive around and it was

150
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:26.519
<v Speaker 3>it was really fun. Every single summer going to Ohio.

151
00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, even though it's just simply Ohio, just Ohio.

152
00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:32.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I would probably say, just like as a kid,

153
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:34.879
<v Speaker 2>my sister and I always play it across the street

154
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:38.240
<v Speaker 2>from with like other girls, and so I feel like

155
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:41.079
<v Speaker 2>just being the kids that were out until the street

156
00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:43.800
<v Speaker 2>lights came on all the time and avoiding going in

157
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:45.959
<v Speaker 2>the house because we were scared our parents would make

158
00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:46.959
<v Speaker 2>us come in for the night.

159
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:49.319
<v Speaker 3>Oh so just like playing in the Call to Sack, Like.

160
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:51.360
<v Speaker 2>My mom's house is in a call to Sack, so

161
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:54.879
<v Speaker 2>we would just be outside all the time when it

162
00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:55.199
<v Speaker 2>was nice.

163
00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 3>I ask you a.

164
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Question, does your mom still live in the house you

165
00:07:58.040 --> 00:08:01.000
<v Speaker 1>grew up in? Yes, what is your old bedroom now?

166
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:04.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, my younger sister lives there now, so she is

167
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:09.480
<v Speaker 2>in my old bedroom, and so it's I mean pretty much. Well,

168
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:12.240
<v Speaker 2>she has her own furniture from when she moved out

169
00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:14.800
<v Speaker 2>of her ex's house, so she has her own furniture

170
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:17.480
<v Speaker 2>in there. But she did paint it because I used

171
00:08:17.480 --> 00:08:19.480
<v Speaker 2>to have it, like one wall was blue and the

172
00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:21.800
<v Speaker 2>rest were like a tan brown or something because I

173
00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:25.240
<v Speaker 2>loved blue. So she painted it all white when she

174
00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:29.279
<v Speaker 2>moved in, and there was a poster of I believe

175
00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Zach efron on the back of the door from like

176
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:36.360
<v Speaker 2>a People magazine or something that hung up until I

177
00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:38.519
<v Speaker 2>think she moved in. It was still there up until

178
00:08:38.559 --> 00:08:39.159
<v Speaker 2>she moved back in.

179
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:41.799
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I was gonna say, was there any little remnant

180
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:44.200
<v Speaker 1>of Jenny in that room?

181
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:47.360
<v Speaker 3>My entire room at my mom's house is the exact

182
00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:49.679
<v Speaker 3>same way it was when I graduated high school?

183
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Are you serious?

184
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:53.320
<v Speaker 3>Yes? Like, like how like everything is on everything on

185
00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:55.720
<v Speaker 3>the walls is the exact same. My bookshelf is the

186
00:08:55.759 --> 00:08:57.879
<v Speaker 3>exact same, The bed is the exact same. I have

187
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:02.639
<v Speaker 3>my whole bedroom. It's like a time machine to twenty ten.

188
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:04.399
<v Speaker 1>That's kind of cool.

189
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:07.080
<v Speaker 3>So, which is I mean cool? But like also I

190
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:10.519
<v Speaker 3>should go and like clean it out, But I mean,

191
00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:12.399
<v Speaker 3>my mom doesn't pester me to come and do it.

192
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:14.279
<v Speaker 1>I say, I'm going to tell you why. As a parent,

193
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:16.759
<v Speaker 1>there's a little tiny part of Mom's heart that loves

194
00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:19.000
<v Speaker 1>that Bailey's room is still the same. Yeah, I really

195
00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:20.960
<v Speaker 1>think so. When I moved out of my mom and

196
00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:24.320
<v Speaker 1>dad's house, I had probably forty model airplanes that I

197
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.600
<v Speaker 1>built hanging from the ceiling, and they took down a bunch,

198
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:30.919
<v Speaker 1>but they left a few, and as a parent, now

199
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.080
<v Speaker 1>I kind of understand that was a little piece of

200
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:37.000
<v Speaker 1>their kid. That was still just the way I left

201
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:40.440
<v Speaker 1>it when I was in eighth or ninth grade. But then,

202
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:42.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, they turned mine into a guest bedroom and

203
00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:46.159
<v Speaker 1>my mom had a doll collection, so she put dolls

204
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:49.639
<v Speaker 1>over in there. Alison's room is nothing like it was.

205
00:09:49.720 --> 00:09:51.759
<v Speaker 1>There's a crib in there for her girl, in a

206
00:09:51.799 --> 00:09:55.720
<v Speaker 1>little girl bed Allison's there's Allison's closet has still got

207
00:09:55.720 --> 00:09:59.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of Alison's stuff in there. Carson's room, he's

208
00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:01.080
<v Speaker 1>only twenty four and he still stays in there when

209
00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:04.080
<v Speaker 1>he comes home. His room is exactly like it was,

210
00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:07.639
<v Speaker 1>minus a few things that he's given away. Yeah. Yeah,

211
00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:09.279
<v Speaker 1>what about you, What did your mom and dad turn

212
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:11.559
<v Speaker 1>your bedroom into or what did you do with your

213
00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:17.000
<v Speaker 1>kids room? So maybe that's something there. Last one, Kathleen

214
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:18.919
<v Speaker 1>writes in says, I've been listening to you guys forever,

215
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.840
<v Speaker 1>even though I never lived in Minnesota. You're absolutely my

216
00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:24.759
<v Speaker 1>favorite fun podcast to listen to. Maybe one day I'll

217
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:27.200
<v Speaker 1>make it to Minnesota. Come to the fair. Yes, here's

218
00:10:27.240 --> 00:10:29.519
<v Speaker 1>the obligatory. Oh, now that I got that out of

219
00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:31.399
<v Speaker 1>the way, Dave, I need your help. I know Alison

220
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.679
<v Speaker 1>works at Target, so I'm hoping you can help solve

221
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:37.240
<v Speaker 1>this mystery. The good and gathered roasted Hobbannio salsa has

222
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:42.080
<v Speaker 1>been discontinued, replaced by an impostor called the Hot Honey

223
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:44.960
<v Speaker 1>hobby Nio. The og Salca was an amazing four point

224
00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:47.799
<v Speaker 1>seven star reviews. My friends and I were all obsessed.

225
00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:49.559
<v Speaker 1>I'd ordered ten at a time, so it was always

226
00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:53.600
<v Speaker 1>stalked in my house. Side note discontinued for months. I

227
00:10:53.679 --> 00:10:56.240
<v Speaker 1>ran out of my supply because I'm that obsessed. The

228
00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Hot Honey Salca barely has two point five stars and

229
00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:03.480
<v Speaker 1>is objectively not good. So why would Target throw away

230
00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:04.799
<v Speaker 1>such a good thing. I need to know if there's

231
00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:07.279
<v Speaker 1>any way to get back the best store bought salsa

232
00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>that ever existed. Please help. We need closure. That is

233
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:13.799
<v Speaker 1>from Kathleen, and she actually sends a bunch of Reddit

234
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:17.440
<v Speaker 1>threads and things, and she is very passionate about this.

235
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:21.559
<v Speaker 1>I asked Alison about that and she laughed, Yeah, there's

236
00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:22.840
<v Speaker 1>nothing that Alison can do.

237
00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:25.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because she's in what department.

238
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:30.519
<v Speaker 1>They move her around? She's done little girl accessories, laundry baskets.

239
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:33.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure what she's in right now, but she's

240
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:36.759
<v Speaker 1>a buyer for something could be microwaves or I don't know.

241
00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:40.440
<v Speaker 3>Get her into the salsa category a buyer for salsa.

242
00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:43.200
<v Speaker 1>I think that's funny. I wish I knew more about

243
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:45.879
<v Speaker 1>that salsa so I could get behind her on this one.

244
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:48.080
<v Speaker 1>And I wonder if there's any way to get back.

245
00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:51.480
<v Speaker 1>It was a It was the Good and Gather, so

246
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:55.000
<v Speaker 1>it was their own brand, so it's not available somewhere else.

247
00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Here's the funny thing about Good and Gathering any generics

248
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:02.000
<v Speaker 1>like that is it's not made by Target. It's made

249
00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:07.200
<v Speaker 1>by another salsa company, but it's their generic. So if

250
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:10.559
<v Speaker 1>you go to the store and you buy generic, I

251
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:13.919
<v Speaker 1>don't care. What's something that comes in generic pasta? Pasta

252
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:15.960
<v Speaker 1>that's a good one. So there's the one expensive stuff

253
00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:18.440
<v Speaker 1>in the blue box. Right then there's the Good and

254
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:21.519
<v Speaker 1>Gathered brand of pasta. It's made by the same people,

255
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.559
<v Speaker 1>but they don't advertise it. They don't have marketing. They

256
00:12:25.639 --> 00:12:27.399
<v Speaker 1>just put it in store, so it's cheaper, so it'd

257
00:12:27.399 --> 00:12:30.200
<v Speaker 1>be like twenty nine cents cheaper per box. It's the

258
00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:31.200
<v Speaker 1>same stuff.

259
00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:34.480
<v Speaker 3>I always get the store brand version of zething. Yeah,

260
00:12:34.679 --> 00:12:37.440
<v Speaker 3>because of why not? It's not any worse than it.

261
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:39.360
<v Speaker 1>I tell myself that it's a little bit better. If

262
00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:42.720
<v Speaker 1>I buy the stuff in the blue pasta box, I

263
00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:44.639
<v Speaker 1>tell myself it's a little bit better than the Good

264
00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:47.879
<v Speaker 1>and Gather or the Great Value is the Walmart brand. Yes,

265
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:51.240
<v Speaker 1>So if you go and buy salad dressing at Walmart,

266
00:12:51.279 --> 00:12:54.759
<v Speaker 1>there's Newman's Own, or there's what's another brand of salad

267
00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:59.679
<v Speaker 1>press Hidden Valley. But if you buy the the Great Value,

268
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:01.320
<v Speaker 1>it's the same shit, same thing.

269
00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:04.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's just the packaging that's different, you.

270
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:06.399
<v Speaker 1>Know, Kathleen. I wish there was something we could do,

271
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:08.639
<v Speaker 1>and I mourned the loss of your Good and Gathered

272
00:13:08.759 --> 00:13:12.159
<v Speaker 1>roasted habannio salsa. I'm sorry. That is it for the

273
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Minnesota goodbye. As you can tell, we need some emails,
