Speaker 1: We're gonna start off the podcast with remember Juananita, who
Speaker 1: writes in every couple of days with a rant about
Speaker 1: things that get on her nerves. And I said, Janita,
Speaker 1: I would love to hear you vocalize this. So here
Speaker 1: she comes, God bless her. Pee pick a little heart.
Speaker 1: Juanita has sent in a video. Now, because we have
Speaker 1: a low tech operating system here, I'm gonna have to
Speaker 1: hold my microphone up to the little speaker for you
Speaker 1: and to be able to hear this. So it's a
Speaker 1: little bit primitive, but I'm going to play a little
Speaker 1: bit of Juanita and her rant with me holding this
Speaker 1: up to the speaker. JANKI I know, here we go.
Speaker 2: Hey yo, hey, it's one even here with the video
Speaker 2: of random shit that gets on my nerves. Sorry, it
Speaker 2: took so all long to get it to you, Dave.
Speaker 2: I tried to get my husband to do it while
Speaker 2: he was watching the preseason game, and it was like
Speaker 2: follow the phone, follow the phone, because he kept fucking moving.
Speaker 2: I'm like, be still. But anyway, there's some more random
Speaker 2: shit that gets on my freaking nerves. This one has
Speaker 2: to do with my kids. So I got a fourteen
Speaker 2: and a seventeen year old. I work nights. My husband
Speaker 2: works days, so when I'm at work, he's home. When
Speaker 2: I'm home, he's at work. I can be home all day,
Speaker 2: all until I get ready to go to work. Them
Speaker 2: two kids won't say a goddamn word to me. As
Speaker 2: soon as I leave the house and punch into work,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, I get fifteen texts a piece
Speaker 2: from each of them. You say to me when I
Speaker 2: was there? Why do you have everything to say to
Speaker 2: me now? But here's the part that pisces me off.
Speaker 2: So this is a typical texting conversation with my kids. Mom,
Speaker 2: what's for dinner? Spaghetti and me balls? Where's the palmersan cheese?
Speaker 2: It's in the cabinet. Is there any more garlic? Bread?
Speaker 2: Where's your damn dad sitting on the couch? Why the
Speaker 2: fuck would you text me? And I'm working fifteen miles
Speaker 2: away from you. Your dad's two feet away from you.
Speaker 2: Why is it that kids don't like to talk to
Speaker 2: their dad. I just don't understand it. It gets on
Speaker 2: my goddamn nerves. I'm a CINGC machinist, so I'm in
Speaker 2: the machine. I'm doing the setup of running parts in oil.
Speaker 2: Have that oil all over my fucking hands. Now you
Speaker 2: have to wipe my hands off the sea to make
Speaker 2: sure that it's not something an emergency for something wrong. Nope, Mom,
Speaker 2: have you seen my black shirt?
Speaker 3: My hat?
Speaker 2: Do I wear into this shit? Do?
Speaker 4: Why?
Speaker 3: They would?
Speaker 2: I know where you're stuff at And like I said,
Speaker 2: your dad's on the fucking count, don't ask me. Thanks
Speaker 2: again for listening to my rants. I love you guys.
Speaker 1: It doesn't get any better than that. And I want
Speaker 1: to thank you personally Wannita for sing that in And
Speaker 1: I'm just so happy that that it like semi technologically
Speaker 1: worked and the recorder recorded it, so I actually watched
Speaker 1: the waveform to make sure. Word Juanita, I I want
Speaker 1: you to do this maybe once a week because his
Speaker 1: corner and I love it because you should do stand
Speaker 1: up because I love the way that you pepper in
Speaker 1: unexpected words that a mom wouldn't normally use, like what's
Speaker 1: your fucking problem? I mean it's aggressive and it's funny,
Speaker 1: and you don't normally hear a mom talk about her
Speaker 1: kids that way. So Juanita, applause to you. You actually
Speaker 1: you pretty much made the podcast today. So I'm looking
Speaker 1: for hold on, I got to find the window, and
Speaker 1: now I can't find it. Hold on, let me see
Speaker 1: if I can find it here. Oh I think I
Speaker 1: closed the window. You get a minute, a minute there, Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: hold one, just talk about it something like amazing.
Speaker 4: Yesterday I tried the fried Ranch at the Affair and
Speaker 4: I liked it and vanted not but I want to
Speaker 4: say that, Jenny, you were talking about like the prime
Speaker 4: spot at the top at Lulu's and I got literally
Speaker 4: the exact same spot. We were like right looking down
Speaker 4: below at the line.
Speaker 3: Were you the one who posted a photo of it?
Speaker 4: Okay?
Speaker 3: Because I was like, oh, got itt And someone messages
Speaker 3: me and they're like, wait, how do you get that spot?
Speaker 3: I go, it's lost.
Speaker 4: I was like, you don't.
Speaker 3: Just like I was like, I don't have a hook up.
Speaker 3: I had a hook up to get That's why I
Speaker 3: was like, you just like gotta keep your eyes. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love it. People watching them, Oh, we did
Speaker 4: so much people watching. I also saw a lot of
Speaker 4: people I know. Which is my favorite game to play
Speaker 4: in any public situation is who sees the person that
Speaker 4: they know first? And I won.
Speaker 3: So yeah, well yeah, I guess.
Speaker 4: But the fact, vont doesn't have any friends. He's been
Speaker 4: here a year, broke and have some friends, so that's
Speaker 4: on him.
Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, thanks for calling. I appreciate that. Next one, Hey, Gang,
Speaker 1: I know Dave is the only one with kids who
Speaker 1: were grown, but I'd like anybody's input as the rest
Speaker 1: of you might have nieces and nephews young age kids.
Speaker 1: My question is how young is too young to give
Speaker 1: kids electronics, cell phones or an Apple Watch? I asked because
Speaker 1: our neighbor got their six year old and Apple Watch
Speaker 1: but for security purpose aka a locator or tracker to
Speaker 1: see where their kid is. Doesn't that seem too young?
Speaker 1: Or is it normal in this day and age of
Speaker 1: the world. What happened to no electronics and just trusting
Speaker 1: they'll be okay and be back at the time they're
Speaker 1: supposed to be? Isn't it scary? We you just can't
Speaker 1: trust the world anymore? Thoughts lick lick dart, lick lick
Speaker 1: dart dart. Ooh, that's wind nice.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 1: I think there are watches that are pretty much solely trackers.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I think that if you
Speaker 1: have that available and you worry about your kids and
Speaker 1: they're in situations where you might worry about them. Sure,
Speaker 1: but I think most kids don't need a tracker, you know.
Speaker 3: I agree, Well, I don't know. I say that now
Speaker 3: as someone who is not a mother, as a person
Speaker 3: who has anxiety and thinks about what I would be
Speaker 3: like as a mother, I probably would want a tracker
Speaker 3: on my child when they're young, because I would be
Speaker 3: very nervous all the time of like if they're home
Speaker 3: ten minutes late. I used to be scared as a
Speaker 3: kid if my parents were home late from work. I
Speaker 3: thought they got in a car, so the sad died. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so like i'd know that as a parent, I'd probably
Speaker 3: I probably would give them a cell phone earlier than
Speaker 3: I thought I would, because I want them to be
Speaker 3: able to contact me.
Speaker 4: And yeah, I think it's one thing. If like you're
Speaker 4: trusting your kid to like come back home after playing
Speaker 4: with the neighbor like in the backyard, Like that's one thing.
Speaker 4: But if they're like going out to like the mall,
Speaker 4: then and you want to track them or I don't know,
Speaker 4: I because same sort of thing. If they have an
Speaker 4: adult that's keeping watch over them, then I would trust
Speaker 4: that and they don't need a tracker or like an
Speaker 4: electronic to communicate with you. But if they're there alone
Speaker 4: with their friend at the which usually you wouldn't do
Speaker 4: until you're in at least middle school anyway, then yeah,
Speaker 4: I'd want to know where my kid was and have
Speaker 4: some kind of way to contact them, be it a
Speaker 4: tracker or a cell phone.
Speaker 1: All right, on to the next one. There's a weird
Speaker 1: plethora of Minnesota goodbye emails today. Okay, so here we go,
Speaker 1: Minnesota goodbye question. All right, Flugelbinder, Ryan, I got a
Speaker 1: question that you might not even know. I listened to
Speaker 1: the morning show on iHeart, just wondering why they played
Speaker 1: different songs when there is a break. Normally older songs
Speaker 1: also will start a commercial that are on the radio.
Speaker 1: Then halfway through it'll either restart the same commercial or
Speaker 1: switch to a completely different one. Just curious, is all
Speaker 1: dart lick dart lick so long on the lick? I
Speaker 1: think it's because the if you buy a commercial, let's
Speaker 1: say that you're Coca Cola and you buy a commercial
Speaker 1: that runs on the radio station, you are not getting
Speaker 1: that same free commercial on the iHeart platform. So, in
Speaker 1: other words, there are commercials that are different priced. It's
Speaker 1: kind of like buying something over it, I don't know,
Speaker 1: like Pennies, and then buying something at Target. So just
Speaker 1: because you bought it at Pennies doesn't mean you get
Speaker 1: a free one over at Target. So there's my analogy.
Speaker 1: If you buy advertising on KATIEWB, the radio station, you
Speaker 1: don't get that same commercial for free on the iHeart app. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so there would be something different.
Speaker 4: Like local commercials are on the actual radio station because
Speaker 4: I listened to iHeart when I would be like getting
Speaker 4: ready for work and then I would listen to the
Speaker 4: radio station in my car. So on the iHeart app, yeah,
Speaker 4: you get like more nationwide commercials. I will just say
Speaker 4: sweet hack on the iHeart app. If you're listening and
Speaker 4: you're like, okay, there's been like too many songs in
Speaker 4: a row. I'm pretty sure they should be talking by
Speaker 4: this point. Just hit refresh, okay, and then it'll be
Speaker 4: like your voice talking like suddenly, and I'll be like,
Speaker 4: oh man, I should have hit refreshed earlier.
Speaker 1: I will give a shout out to the iHeartRadio app,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna make fun of me, and rightfully. So.
Speaker 1: So there's an artist named Gordon Lightfoot, and he's mostly
Speaker 1: known for the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, but he
Speaker 1: also did a bunch of other great songs, and I
Speaker 1: kind of grew up listening to his music and I
Speaker 1: had this, you know, his record and whatever. So I
Speaker 1: found the Gordon Lightfoot channel on iHeart Radio and it's
Speaker 1: like a mix of his music and other similar music.
Speaker 1: And it's on iHeartRadio and it's free, and I listened
Speaker 1: to it last night. I was out driving and I
Speaker 1: had on the Gordon Lightfoot channel, which is like, you know,
Speaker 1: like totally like not cool to listen to. But I
Speaker 1: think the cool thing was you can look for like
Speaker 1: any channel. You could do the Britney Spears channel or
Speaker 1: the I don't know name somebody current the Halsey channel,
Speaker 1: and it'll play her music interspersed with music that's similar
Speaker 1: to And it's on iHeartRadio. And I didn't really know
Speaker 1: about this. I knew you could do like, okay, classic
Speaker 1: hits or songs from the nineties, but I didn't know
Speaker 1: you could pick an artist and be like, I want
Speaker 1: Halsey and songs similar to hers. So a little plug
Speaker 1: for the iHeart app and I.
Speaker 4: Listened to all of my podcasts on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1: I try to do that too. Yeah, I usually try
Speaker 1: to listen. If I find a podcast, I'll be like,
Speaker 1: well is it on the iHeartRadio app?
Speaker 4: Ye?
Speaker 1: So, Charis writes in she showed up the state Fair
Speaker 1: with her lovely daughter, and she's always so very sweet
Speaker 1: and supportive and we just love you. Hello, my favorite
Speaker 1: morning show crew, Charise, and I find myself needing some advice.
Speaker 1: I'll give you a condensed version. My male cousin was
Speaker 1: engaged to a young lady and they have two children together,
Speaker 1: one and two. She's twenty five and he's thirty one.
Speaker 1: By the way, they broke up in March. Since I
Speaker 1: had just broken up with my ex and was looking
Speaker 1: for an apartment, she said we should become roommates to
Speaker 1: save money. I'm too. I used to say no, and
Speaker 1: I agreed. Now that's a big thing to be nice about,
Speaker 1: like let's be roommates. Yes, I agree to be nice.
Speaker 1: I am now regretting that decision. Before we moved in.
Speaker 1: We agree to pay half the bills water, internet, gas, electric.
Speaker 1: We moved in August. First the first bill came of
Speaker 1: the mail. When I said okay, she said. I told her.
Speaker 1: She said, since she bought all the household items, she
Speaker 1: shouldn't pay as much for the bills. Now, since we
Speaker 1: are roommates, I've been purchasing my own food and cleaning supplies, dishes, toiletries.
Speaker 1: She has not purchased anything for me, and I don't
Speaker 1: expect her to. I just want to know how to
Speaker 1: have a civil discussion without yelling or arguing. We are
Speaker 1: renting a house and I stay in the basement and
Speaker 1: she has the upstairs. For context, I even bought my
Speaker 1: own microwave to put downstairs, and everything she purchased for
Speaker 1: the house and stuff that she wanted never consulted me once,
Speaker 1: and I don't mind. I never used the upstairs unless
Speaker 1: I'm doing something in the kitchen. Sorry for the long email.
Speaker 1: Any advice would be appreciated by the way. I enjoyed
Speaker 1: talking with you guys at the State Fair this past Saturday.
Speaker 1: Sharishi have beautiful eyes. I can point that out before
Speaker 1: I do anything else. You have beautiful, shockingly beautiful eyes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, the most beautiful.
Speaker 1: I don't have any idea what to tell her. I've
Speaker 1: never had a roommate Jenny or Bailey.
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, it's just it's tough because you made an
Speaker 3: agreement about the bills. So I think if she's saying
Speaker 3: she bought more household items, then you should be like, okay,
Speaker 3: well let me know how much the household items that
Speaker 3: you were willing to split with her, because you said
Speaker 3: she did buy things that she wanted for herself and
Speaker 3: then like somehow equate that to bills. So maybe knock
Speaker 3: off some of the stuff she owes you, because like,
Speaker 3: you guys did need like I'm thinking like pots and pans, right,
Speaker 3: if she bought all that, then I do see like
Speaker 3: sort of her point of view. Yeah, So I would
Speaker 3: say just like a civil conversation would be like, hey,
Speaker 3: let's just like knock out, like sit down and kind
Speaker 3: of look over the cost.
Speaker 4: Of all this, right, and it's I would definitely use
Speaker 4: the word like communal expenses, like what are these communal
Speaker 4: things that we've been using, and tell me how what
Speaker 4: the price says of those things. So and then if
Speaker 4: you kind of turn it on you, it'll feel less
Speaker 4: awkward of a situation where if you kind of approach
Speaker 4: it like so that I can make sure that we're
Speaker 4: split evenly versus saying so I can make sure you
Speaker 4: are paying the right amount, so if you put it
Speaker 4: on you, then it'll be less like you're calling her out.
Speaker 4: So that's my recommendation. And then use that word communal.
Speaker 3: And then also don't live with her again in the
Speaker 3: gesture No, I'm just kidding. I'm sure she might be lovely,
Speaker 3: but you never know.
Speaker 1: Dan writes in, And Dan is a smart ass. And
Speaker 1: you've heard Dan on the show a couple of times,
Speaker 1: and we always give Dan his backstory. Dan is probably
Speaker 1: forty ish and he's had a traumatic brain injury because
Speaker 1: he wrapped a four wheeler around a tree to the
Speaker 1: point where the two front tires touched. And he'll call
Speaker 1: in once in a while, and he's funny and he's
Speaker 1: a smart ass. He writes in It says, Dave, when
Speaker 1: you were gone the other day, the show that I
Speaker 1: absolutely really enjoyed listening to was Benny and a Chen
Speaker 1: and Bailey. So I think he's trying to make a
Speaker 1: smart ass remark that the show is better when I'm
Speaker 1: not here. Fuck you, Dan, I will only say, sincerely
Speaker 1: Dan from Apple Valley PS Bailey, xoxo.
Speaker 4: Oh Dan, thanks, that's cute.
Speaker 1: And finally I got an email from Shane from Woodberry
Speaker 1: and I really appreciate it was kind of longer email,
Speaker 1: but I'm going to I'm gonna sum it up because
Speaker 1: it is a very helpful public surface announcement email Keep
Speaker 1: your keep your pets away from your weed. Basically, they said,
Speaker 1: I've got a couple of dogs and they seem to
Speaker 1: be sick, and then I realized that they got into
Speaker 1: my weed, and that so keep your Since weed is
Speaker 1: legalized more and more common, keep all your weed away
Speaker 1: from your dog because their dog's a weed. Long story short,
Speaker 1: they had to go to the vet and it cost
Speaker 1: four hundred and twenty dollars. So be responsible with your
Speaker 1: weed products. And if I the person that did this,
Speaker 1: I will go all alien romulus on their ass. I
Speaker 1: think that means they'll pop out of their chest. Yes, exactly,
Speaker 1: And hopefully it's short enough to be read, and I
Speaker 1: would love a sticker. If so, Shane, I will send
Speaker 1: you a sticker and thank you for writing in on
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Goodbye. I am not a weed person, so
Speaker 1: I don't have to worry about that. I've tried weed
Speaker 1: enough times to know that it does not make me
Speaker 1: experience the things that I want to experience, but I
Speaker 1: saw a guy walk it through. Okay, So I was
Speaker 1: watching this movie the other night. It was called Blink Twice,
Speaker 1: and one of the things they do through the entire
Speaker 1: movie is smoke weed. They're partying on an island and
Speaker 1: they smoke weed all day, and I'm like, I don't
Speaker 1: get it. What is the pleasure Like when I drink,
Speaker 1: I get a warm, soft, little comfortable buzz, But weed
Speaker 1: makes me tense up. It heightens my awareness of every
Speaker 1: little sound, and it makes me paranoid.
Speaker 4: And I think that's a unique experience for you because
Speaker 4: like some it's like they get chill, like they chill out.
Speaker 4: So that's why they would smoke it all day. I
Speaker 4: really wish I did continue that. Yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 3: Well I was just going to say, I think that
Speaker 3: some people can do it and some people can't, and
Speaker 3: it's all comes down to your brain chemistry almost because
Speaker 3: mine and Dave's experiences are very similar. I become paranoid,
Speaker 3: I start panicking, my heart's racing, I think I'm dying.
Speaker 3: It's pretty much my entire experience with weed. And then
Speaker 3: there's people like my boyfriend who it is like a
Speaker 3: relaxing thing for him, and I'm like, good for you.
Speaker 3: For me, I don't want to feel like I'm having
Speaker 3: a heart attack. And that's what it does to me.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it does. I feel like I am
Speaker 1: going to die. And I get up and I have
Speaker 1: to pace the floor and I'm walking back and forth
Speaker 1: and I'm going, oh my god, I'm going to die.
Speaker 1: And if it works for you, I'm glad it works
Speaker 1: for you. But I also if it worked for me
Speaker 1: and I thought, wow, I'm going to smoke this every
Speaker 1: single day, I wouldn't like that either. And I know
Speaker 1: that weed is kind of benign as far as health risks.
Speaker 1: It's not as risky as other drugs or alcohol, but
Speaker 1: I also would not want to rely on a chemical
Speaker 1: to get me through the day.
Speaker 4: I mean same with alcohol too, Like I feel like, yeah,
Speaker 4: you could end up smoking weed every day, you could
Speaker 4: end up drinking every day, but like I would feel
Speaker 4: weird not ever being sober. Yeah, yeah, either way, that
Speaker 4: would be strange to me because like, oh, I can't
Speaker 4: think completely the same.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I like me the way I am and I
Speaker 1: like experiencing life as it comes at me, the good
Speaker 1: and the bad, And I don't want it to be
Speaker 1: filtered or negated because I'm on something that makes everything
Speaker 1: seem like it's okay. You know, Like if I had
Speaker 1: to take Josie to the vet and spend a bunch
Speaker 1: of money on her, I would want to feel that
Speaker 1: and experience that without a filter in the same way
Speaker 1: that I'd want to experience like, oh oh, I don't know,
Speaker 1: bring back sharesas story spaghetti and meat balls and garlic bread.
Speaker 1: I want to experience that fully without a chemical filter.
Speaker 4: Also, can I say too, not just hiding weed from
Speaker 4: your pets, but like anything that they could potentially ingest.
Speaker 4: That's bad. My mom's cat ate bath salts ones and
Speaker 4: he was never the same after he like he lived
Speaker 4: for quite a while, but she thought he was gonna
Speaker 4: die because he ate these like those lavender epsom sust things. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and he got into that bag that was sitting next
Speaker 4: to the bathtub, and he lost so much weight he
Speaker 4: would like stumble around. So she was like, he has cancer,
Speaker 4: but he didn't have cancer. And he ended up living
Speaker 4: like three more years, but he never gained any of
Speaker 4: that weight back. So he was like a weird skeletor cat.
Speaker 1: I didn't know dogs couldn't eat grapes. And I was
Speaker 1: about to give my dog a grape and I think
Speaker 1: somebody said, don't give your dog. I didn't know that
Speaker 1: dogs can't eat grapes. It can kill them. Did you
Speaker 1: know this?
Speaker 3: But I feel like that's not just one grape, but
Speaker 3: they have to get into I think it's just one grape.
Speaker 3: But there are plenty of food. Like they say, chocolate
Speaker 3: also is really bad for dogs too, So.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the grandkids were trying to feed Josie chocolate
Speaker 1: m and ms the other day and I'm like, no, no, new,
Speaker 1: stop it. And that is going to do it for
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Goodbye. A special shout out to Juananita for
Speaker 1: your contribution. That was very special. We've never done that before.
