Speaker 1: I just saw a meme a minute ago on the
Speaker 1: way back from the bathroom that was really interesting. It says,
Speaker 1: if women are supposed to have a low body count
Speaker 1: and men a high one, then who exactly are men
Speaker 1: sleeping with? Now that is a mathematical quandary because I
Speaker 1: think for every partner that a man has, there has
Speaker 1: to be a woman, so the woman body count should
Speaker 1: be the same. The only way I can figure it
Speaker 1: out if there's one woman that's sleeping with all the guys,
Speaker 1: So every guy has slept with this one woman and
Speaker 1: everybody else is like only slept with two guys. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't have another way to explain it, But do
Speaker 1: you think that maybe there's something there that maybe there
Speaker 1: are certain women who like Julie Lover, she had a
Speaker 1: high body count. Jenny and I both admit that we've
Speaker 1: got a higher body count. So maybe Jenny and Julie
Speaker 1: and I are like the high body counters and somebody
Speaker 1: else might have like, you know, five or something like that.
Speaker 2: I just googled Arthur more men or women in the
Speaker 2: world to mathematically figure out if it was like possible
Speaker 2: for somehow for that meme to make sense. But I mean,
Speaker 2: there's more men than women in the world, so that
Speaker 2: would it makes sense like if there was more women
Speaker 2: in the world, Okay, then there'd be more opportunities for
Speaker 2: women to be spread out, okay and like sleep with men.
Speaker 2: But mathematically that's not how it works out.
Speaker 1: So I think the only thing is I mean, it's
Speaker 1: probably true that women have a lower body count, but
Speaker 1: they're definitely women I know that have got a higher
Speaker 1: body count.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it, no shame in it.
Speaker 1: Who cares what.
Speaker 2: My friend group's a mixture. Some of us have higher
Speaker 2: ones and some of us are pretty low. And love
Speaker 2: love it for everyone. Whatever your body count is, it
Speaker 2: could be zero, it could be five hundred.
Speaker 1: If it made you happy and you don't regret it,
Speaker 1: then then it's fine. Yeah, if it.
Speaker 2: Makes you see.
Speaker 3: What yeah said, start saying.
Speaker 1: Let's dive into the emails and see what we've got.
Speaker 1: Hello y'all from Brita. She says, you brought up the
Speaker 1: January bucket list again and asked if anybody had done
Speaker 1: anything from that list. I thought I would that I
Speaker 1: did three things that I took from that list so far.
Speaker 1: I wrote and sent a handwritten letter, bought myself flowers
Speaker 1: and made a suncatcher. My New Year's resolution this year
Speaker 1: was to do a new thing every day because of
Speaker 1: the past few years, I found myself stuck in the
Speaker 1: monotony of just work and then at home watching TV,
Speaker 1: reading or scrolling my phone. As someone who used to
Speaker 1: be really adventurous, it absolutely began weighing on me. Doing
Speaker 1: a new thing every day has been amazing for my
Speaker 1: mental health, even though some days where I'm tired, It's
Speaker 1: been something small like listening to a new song or
Speaker 1: watching a new show. Also, just want to say I
Speaker 1: love your show and listen every time every time I
Speaker 1: go to work. I'd love a staff writer sticker. If
Speaker 1: you end up reading my email, PS, I'm counting sending.
Speaker 1: This is my new thing for today. I like that.
Speaker 1: That's very ambitious. I will tell you that I've been
Speaker 1: going through this too, and I talk about this with
Speaker 1: friends like a groundhog day, where every day is not bad,
Speaker 1: but it's so much the same. Especially in the winter
Speaker 1: time I work, I might go to the gym, go home,
Speaker 1: have a light lunch, take a nap, wake up. My
Speaker 1: indulgence in the afternoon is a hot green tea or two,
Speaker 1: and then really the rest of the day kind of disappears.
Speaker 1: The sun goes down, it's time for dinner, and we
Speaker 1: watch something on the couch every day and I try
Speaker 1: to mix it up. I went and played cribbage with
Speaker 1: my friend Mel the other day, and I had lunch
Speaker 1: with a friend Brenda yesterday. But a lot of the time,
Speaker 1: it's just so much the same, and it is like
Speaker 1: a groundhog day, and it's my own fault because if
Speaker 1: it is to be, it is up to me.
Speaker 2: I feel like the expectation, though, to do something like
Speaker 2: extravagant during the work week is it's far fetched. I
Speaker 2: think that, like you should feel okay with this pact,
Speaker 2: that your life is kind of groundhog day. Maybe spice
Speaker 2: it up by doing something different, but you don't have
Speaker 2: to leave the house by doing something different, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean. Like, I feel like there's so much
Speaker 2: pressure from society to be, like you need to be
Speaker 2: like going out and living life. But it's like, okay,
Speaker 2: But I also mentally have to be prepared for work
Speaker 2: every day, and that doesn't leave a ton of time
Speaker 2: to like do all these extra things.
Speaker 1: No, You're absolutely right. I found so that I want
Speaker 1: to share with you guys, and it's in my phone
Speaker 1: here somewhere, and I saved it the other day, and
Speaker 1: of course now I'm not finding it. But it was
Speaker 1: basically like, you know, hey, life is good if you
Speaker 1: have this, this, this, if you sit around on the
Speaker 1: couch and like have time to relax and whatever. I'll
Speaker 1: try to find it later because I think it was
Speaker 1: really interesting and I'm not finding it at all right now.
Speaker 1: I did find a meme that a friend sent to me.
Speaker 1: You want to hear it what it is? Yeah, no
Speaker 1: matter how poor you are, if you have a warm butthole,
Speaker 1: you have a way to make some money.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's.
Speaker 1: Meant to be offensive. No, it's meant to be Yeah, No.
Speaker 3: I fully get that. I just don't. I guess I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Those aren't the kind of memes I'm
Speaker 2: usually seeing.
Speaker 3: Mine usually involved dogs.
Speaker 1: My friends are disgusting. And you know what, you know,
Speaker 1: who sends them to me? Women send them to me?
Speaker 3: Really? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, women. It was definitely a woman who sent me
Speaker 1: that one. And I've got more offensive ones in my phone.
Speaker 1: And that's what friends are for, to shock and offend
Speaker 1: each other.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, sometimes I think the most recent meme
Speaker 2: I sent to Andrew, He's the main person I sent
Speaker 2: him to.
Speaker 3: It was about a nap A nap.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like a little cat where it was
Speaker 2: like when you were going to take a twenty minute
Speaker 2: nap but wake up hours later and don't know what
Speaker 2: planet you're on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's a cat. Look at look at the cat.
Speaker 2: It looks all disheveled, and it's like.
Speaker 1: His face is all mush.
Speaker 3: Well, he's cute. What's going on?
Speaker 4: You know? Most of my memes are just cat memes
Speaker 4: that I send back and forth on TikTok.
Speaker 1: I'm so bummed I can't find this, Oh buddy, we
Speaker 1: were talking earlier things Bailey, for the simply, we were
Speaker 1: talking earlier about the amount of junk we have on
Speaker 1: our phones, and I've got pictures of I'll screenshot when
Speaker 1: somebody says, hey, here's a show you should watch, then
Speaker 1: I'll take a picture of it, and then tons of
Speaker 1: those are left in my phone and then I don't
Speaker 1: know pictures. So we went to the RV show this weekend.
Speaker 1: Bless you, Bailey, thank you, And I don't know okay anyway,
Speaker 1: Next one, thank you, Britta, appreciate that. Next email, Hello
Speaker 1: Morning Show. I was the one who wrote in last
Speaker 1: month about the January bucket list calendar. While I wasn't
Speaker 1: able to complete everything for January, here's February to help
Speaker 1: inspire some listeners. Wear pinker red on Valentine's Day. Learn
Speaker 1: to say I love you in another language. I adore
Speaker 1: mea Moore. Isn't that from a song?
Speaker 4: Well, mea Moore is my love? In Spanish, you would
Speaker 4: say themo meamir is I love you mea Moore?
Speaker 3: Theamo?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, catch up with an old friend, take a
Speaker 1: picture with a loved one, send a letter in the mail,
Speaker 1: Try a box of chocolates, make a craft with hearts,
Speaker 1: make a strawberry smoothie, bake something heart shaped, have breakfast okay,
Speaker 1: find a unique Valentine's card, watch a romantic comedy, buy
Speaker 1: yourself flowers, plan a spa home night. Write ten things
Speaker 1: you love about yourself. Love to you all from Kaylee.
Speaker 1: I like that, Kaylee, thank you very much, and maybe
Speaker 1: somebody will be inspired and want to do something. Okay,
Speaker 1: that one I cannot read, but I appreciate it. Alexandra
Speaker 1: uh Next one another random email from Kristen speaking of
Speaker 1: bringing back fashions. What is a trend er fashion article
Speaker 1: that you had when you were a kid that you
Speaker 1: would definitely still wear today. For me, I had these
Speaker 1: lime green and purple goosebumps tennis shoes and the souls
Speaker 1: had skeleton feet on them, so that's the print that
Speaker 1: they would make when you walk, and they said Google
Speaker 1: talk on them. I would rock those all day, every day.
Speaker 1: Thanks guys, love you all right. From Kristin, is there
Speaker 1: anything that you wore when you were a kid that
Speaker 1: you would absolutely wear today?
Speaker 2: I feel like I guess I'll do. I mean, bell
Speaker 2: bottom jeans were kind of in style a little bit
Speaker 2: when I was younger, and I still wear those today
Speaker 2: because it kind of came back in style in the
Speaker 2: last few years.
Speaker 3: So that's it for me.
Speaker 1: Okay, I really didn't have a fashion when I was
Speaker 1: a kid. I would say Levi five oh one jeans
Speaker 1: that fade because when I was a kid, we did
Speaker 1: not have the money to shop and buy Levi's. We
Speaker 1: bought jeans at Kmart, and Kmart jeans did not fade.
Speaker 1: You could boil them, you could pound them with rocks.
Speaker 1: They did not fade. And then I think around junior
Speaker 1: high or so maybe high school. I was like, Mom,
Speaker 1: I want to get LEVI five oh ones because when
Speaker 1: you wash them they fade, and that was really cool.
Speaker 1: But other than that, I don't really have a fashion
Speaker 1: that I would wear anybody else.
Speaker 4: Honestly, I was so unfashionable as a kid, like I
Speaker 4: wore the stupidest step but has clothes that I got
Speaker 4: made fun of all the time. So I don't know
Speaker 4: if I would bring back any of that stuff. But
Speaker 4: also I just kind of turned into the adult version
Speaker 4: of wearing stupid clothes that at least fit, So I
Speaker 4: don't know, I'm already doing it, just wearing dumb stuff.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, let's try another one. This is a little
Speaker 1: bit involved and it's really interesting, but it's long, so
Speaker 1: I'm going to kind of skim through it. Guys, it's
Speaker 1: me the woman whose mother is convinced that she is
Speaker 1: dating Teddy Swims. Now I remember this a few weeks ago.
Speaker 1: It was a mom who is somehow convinced that Teddy
Speaker 1: Swims is corresponding with her and they have a relationship.
Speaker 1: You had me on for group therapy. Oh, this is
Speaker 1: the end of September. I've got an update up until
Speaker 1: a week ago, nothing had changed. She was still talking
Speaker 1: and sending money to a Teddy Swims scammer. Well, I
Speaker 1: texted my mom a screenshot of a post Teddy made
Speaker 1: on his Instagram story of an event he'd be playing
Speaker 1: in May. I texted her on a texting app with
Speaker 1: a number I've texted her with before, so although it
Speaker 1: was a new number, she should have recognized it as
Speaker 1: a message from her daughter. I said, I'm sure he'll
Speaker 1: be getting you before and you'll go with him, right, sarcastically. So,
Speaker 1: in other words, he was talking about an event and
Speaker 1: the daughter wrote to Mom and said, oh, he's going
Speaker 1: to pick you up. You're going to go with him, right.
Speaker 1: I have no idea why. She responded, thinking that I
Speaker 1: really was Teddy Swims, saying, I think you sentenced to
Speaker 1: the wrong person. Baby. I'm sure you didn't mean me.
Speaker 1: So anyway, they played back and forth with Mom, and
Speaker 1: so she has spent over sixty thousand dollars being scammed
Speaker 1: in the last year with just this scammer alone. I
Speaker 1: am hoping she will realize she will never get that
Speaker 1: money back, and finally this is the end of it.
Speaker 1: So I think that somehow she must have gotten mom
Speaker 1: to realize that this is not Teddy Swims. That's all
Speaker 1: I got. Hopefully it all made sense. It's a little
Speaker 1: bit of confusing to explain. Yeah, that's why I didn't
Speaker 1: read the whole thing because I read it earlier and
Speaker 1: it really is a little bit confusing.
Speaker 3: Well, it sounds I mean, it's a convoluted situation too.
Speaker 1: Well, just confounds me how somebody could actually think. And
Speaker 1: it's not uncommon that Teddy Swims would be dating somebody
Speaker 1: he's never met in a random state, yeah, who is
Speaker 1: probably a little bit too old for him, because you know,
Speaker 1: this is a mom, she's probably sixties or seventies, and
Speaker 1: that Teddy Swims has, you know, a fake Teddy Swims
Speaker 1: has convinced her and then said, oh, I need money,
Speaker 1: even though Teddy Swims is worth a hundred times more
Speaker 1: than the rest of us, Yeah, he needs money and
Speaker 1: I'm a lonely woman.
Speaker 4: Weird too, is that, Like, even if I was dating
Speaker 4: someone who was real life flesh and blood, I saw
Speaker 4: them every day, I still wouldn't give them sixty thousand
Speaker 4: dollars for whatever. And she's giving it to someone she's
Speaker 4: never seen their face before in real life except you
Speaker 4: know in pictures, which I guess is her rationale.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the thing is like if I was dating
Speaker 1: somebody new and they really wanted money, no matter if
Speaker 1: they were especially fishy, if they were wealthy, but even
Speaker 1: if they were just average. Like I meet somebody and
Speaker 1: they're just average and they're like, yeah, Dave, go on,
Speaker 1: I really need to borrow ten thousand dollars. I'd be like,
Speaker 1: you got the wrong guy.
Speaker 3: I'd be like, sorry, you gonna happen.
Speaker 1: I mean, if I really, if I was in love
Speaker 1: with somebody and they needed ten thousand dollars, I would loaded.
Speaker 1: Drake needed twenty five hundred dollars and I loaded to
Speaker 1: him got paid back one thousand. I never got my
Speaker 1: other fifteen hundred dollars back. But no, don't date somebody
Speaker 1: who's like, hitch up for money.
Speaker 2: Well, I think that those are the type of the
Speaker 2: people who be a fall victim to this are not
Speaker 2: good with money, and at the beginning, because if you're
Speaker 2: good with money, you're not giving a random stranger that
Speaker 2: amount of money.
Speaker 1: That's in a huge amount of money, especially for somebody
Speaker 1: who's older and probably on a limited income. So yeah,
Speaker 1: it just you know, My friend Nate went through that.
Speaker 1: His mom thought she was dating James Spader, and James
Speaker 1: Spader was going to take her to the Academy Awards
Speaker 1: as his date, and they were going to buy a
Speaker 1: house together. The house was nine hundred thousand dollars and
Speaker 1: he was going to pay most of it, but she
Speaker 1: just needed to chip in like one hundred thousand dollars,
Speaker 1: so she sent this fake James Spader.
Speaker 3: Money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and of course there's no house. They were never
Speaker 1: going to get married, and then I think they finally
Speaker 1: convinced her. Terrible next one, our friend Aarin in Plymouth says,
Speaker 1: if you haven't already watched, I recommend Severance on Apple TV.
Speaker 1: It is more compelling than Silo. Severance is a delightfully
Speaker 1: trippy series. As for why washing machines were used to
Speaker 1: be exclusively in the basement, we talked about this last week.
Speaker 1: Why are washing machines in the basement. Yes, it's because
Speaker 1: of worries about water leaks. You definitely don't want to
Speaker 1: flood from the upper levels. In addition, there's the extra
Speaker 1: gas or electrical line needed for the dryer. Easier to
Speaker 1: do that stuff in the basement. When washers are when
Speaker 1: washers are upstairs, now they need to have an emergency
Speaker 1: drain pan underneath. That's from Aaron in Plymouth. Well that
Speaker 1: makes sense because that you know, you use to keep
Speaker 1: washer in the basement, Yeah, next to the dryer, because
Speaker 1: if it flooded, it would only flood the bottom level,
Speaker 1: not your top two level home. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow, Thanks Aaron for all the insights.
Speaker 1: I really had no idea.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: And then a drainage pan. So in other words, if
Speaker 1: it starts to leak, it will drain into the pan
Speaker 1: and then drain down to the basement. I guess. Okay,
Speaker 1: so no, no, right, honestly I think that might be
Speaker 1: Let's see if I got another one here. I very
Speaker 1: much disagree with Vaunt's take on wearing a speedo. Vance
Speaker 1: said no man should ever wear a speedo, right, Yes?
Speaker 1: Is that what he said last week?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 1: I don't disagree that every man should have to wear
Speaker 1: one in public, especially since it's pretty socially unacceptable to
Speaker 1: wear them outside of specific context like swimming, diving, water
Speaker 1: polo in this part of the world. But if you
Speaker 1: have access to a more private body of water, like
Speaker 1: a backyard pool or a beach with nobody around absolutely
Speaker 1: tries swimming in a speedo. The way you glide through
Speaker 1: the water kind of similar to gliding on ice skates,
Speaker 1: but in water there's a lot less resistance and it's
Speaker 1: kind of fun. It's also nice to have not have
Speaker 1: wet swim trunks rubbing up against your thighs and legs
Speaker 1: and cause irritation. Definitely feels awkward the first few times
Speaker 1: to wear one, but after a while you don't really
Speaker 1: think about it that much or even at all. Once
Speaker 1: you get over the initial awkwardness, it's actually really comfortable.
Speaker 1: I don't wear them in public. I'm weird, but not
Speaker 1: about to set an set a weird trend, but totally
Speaker 1: would if more people did. I doubt I changed any minds,
Speaker 1: but hopefully I get better reasons than the non reasons
Speaker 1: given in the audio clip that Von paid the not
Speaker 1: really new lineup, The not really new anymore lineup is great.
Speaker 1: Thank you. I love listening every day. Keep up the
Speaker 1: great work from Lucas and that'll wrapper up for the
Speaker 1: Minnesota goodbye for today. We do need some emails because
Speaker 1: I think we are pretty much tapped out, So unless
Speaker 1: you want to hear us talk about I don't know
Speaker 1: crafting tomorrow.
Speaker 3: I do like craft.
Speaker 1: Oh you know, it's not everybody's cup of tea, but
Speaker 1: we might resort to that tomorrow. So send you an
Speaker 1: email whatever's on your mind. We'd love to hear from you.
Speaker 1: We can definitely turn it into something and if we
Speaker 1: read it, you get a staff writer sticker. So include
Speaker 1: your mailing address and we'll see you tomorrow here on
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Goodbye. Oh the email address it's always ryanshow
Speaker 1: at KDIWB dot com. Thank you
