1
00:00:00.400 --> 00:00:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Big news on the Minnesota Goodbye Valley Fair opens this weekend.

2
00:00:06.879 --> 00:00:10.519
<v Speaker 1>A favorite ride of Valley Fair, Steel Venom Wild Thing

3
00:00:10.599 --> 00:00:14.160
<v Speaker 1>is a great ride. Steel Venom is terrifying. And this

4
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:15.919
<v Speaker 1>is the one that's shaped like a U. So you

5
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:18.239
<v Speaker 1>start at the bottom of the U. You back up

6
00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:21.600
<v Speaker 1>and then you go way to the top and then

7
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:24.640
<v Speaker 1>you sit there for a minute and then you wait

8
00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:27.600
<v Speaker 1>for it to drop and it clicks, but it doesn't drop.

9
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:29.600
<v Speaker 2>Is that the one that spins at the top two

10
00:00:29.719 --> 00:00:31.239
<v Speaker 2>like it twirls down.

11
00:00:31.039 --> 00:00:32.880
<v Speaker 1>A little bit. Yeah, it does twirl a little bit

12
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:36.320
<v Speaker 1>at the going forward end, I believe, And then it clicks,

13
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.039
<v Speaker 1>but it doesn't drop, and you think, oh my god,

14
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:40.679
<v Speaker 1>something's wrong, and then it drops. But now that I

15
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:44.039
<v Speaker 1>say that, No, my favorite ride is Power Tower, no question.

16
00:00:44.159 --> 00:00:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Power Tower is ridiculously high. Every time I go on it,

17
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:50.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm riding up. I can't believe how high I am.

18
00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:53.280
<v Speaker 1>I hate heights. But then I go, why am I

19
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:58.439
<v Speaker 1>on this ride? So any thoughts on rides at Valley Fair.

20
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:01.600
<v Speaker 2>I like a roller coaster, but it has to just

21
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:05.040
<v Speaker 2>be like a tame roller coaster. So is it one

22
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:07.040
<v Speaker 2>of the wooden ones I can? I can deal with?

23
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:08.519
<v Speaker 2>One of the wooden ones. But if it goes like

24
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:10.319
<v Speaker 2>up down, up down, up down, up down, I don't

25
00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:11.799
<v Speaker 2>like it. And if it goes like up up up

26
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:13.959
<v Speaker 2>up up up up and then has a huge drop,

27
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:15.920
<v Speaker 2>like if it's more than a sixty foot drop, I'm

28
00:01:15.959 --> 00:01:18.000
<v Speaker 2>not doing it period. I'm too scared.

29
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:19.560
<v Speaker 1>When are you gonna start living your life?

30
00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:22.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm too scared. I like I like Splash Mountain, I

31
00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:25.000
<v Speaker 2>like Evers, I like the Disney roller coasters, but I

32
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.439
<v Speaker 2>can't do I can't do a really big drop like

33
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:30.200
<v Speaker 2>the wild Thing is too scary. Can't do it.

34
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:33.079
<v Speaker 3>I don't think ben a Valley fair like twice. I

35
00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:35.640
<v Speaker 3>think total in my lifetime because I didn't grow up here,

36
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:40.439
<v Speaker 3>so I would say steel Venom's probably my favorite. However,

37
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:42.040
<v Speaker 3>I do have a story of I grew up going

38
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:45.560
<v Speaker 3>to Six Legs in Gurney, Illinois, and there was a

39
00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:48.879
<v Speaker 3>a wooden roller coaster called Viper, and we would purposely

40
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:52.239
<v Speaker 3>not try to have our seatbelts buckle as tight or

41
00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:54.719
<v Speaker 3>like the sing as tight because it was so rickety

42
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:55.959
<v Speaker 3>and it just like shut.

43
00:01:55.879 --> 00:01:58.280
<v Speaker 2>Like just shake really back. Yeah, and you'd like.

44
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:00.519
<v Speaker 3>Fly around and stuff, and I mean obvious, they still

45
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:03.079
<v Speaker 3>a common check and make sure you're like decently secure.

46
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.040
<v Speaker 3>But I remember, like, I'm pretty sure I peed my

47
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:08.080
<v Speaker 3>pants one time, laughing so hard because I was not

48
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:09.319
<v Speaker 3>in secure at.

49
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:11.120
<v Speaker 2>All and I was just flying everywhere and it was

50
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:11.639
<v Speaker 2>so fun.

51
00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:17.879
<v Speaker 1>Wow, nights bad idea. Yeah, A little myth that you

52
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.960
<v Speaker 1>might have heard is that the wooden roller coaster at

53
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:23.840
<v Speaker 1>Valley Fair used to be in the Excelsior Amusement Park.

54
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 1>That's not true, However, the carousel at Valley Fair used

55
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:30.360
<v Speaker 1>to be in the Excelsior Amusement Park, and you might

56
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:32.520
<v Speaker 1>be going, there was an amusement park in excels Here.

57
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:37.560
<v Speaker 1>There was right where Maynards is now. There used to

58
00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:41.439
<v Speaker 1>be an amusement park right along the shore of Lake Minnetaka,

59
00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:43.800
<v Speaker 1>and it was there from maybe the thirties until like

60
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 1>the seventies or so, and then they tore it down.

61
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Here's another fun fact. Yeah, and I bring this up

62
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.080
<v Speaker 1>once in a while. There used to be in the

63
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:55.080
<v Speaker 1>parking lot of Maynards, so you got Maynards on one

64
00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:57.520
<v Speaker 1>side of the road. Across the street from Maynards. There

65
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:01.879
<v Speaker 1>used to be a a nightclub, like a teen dance club,

66
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 1>and I forget what it was called, But the Rolling

67
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:09.400
<v Speaker 1>Stones played there one time before they were really really big,

68
00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:14.800
<v Speaker 1>and it was burnt down by some stupid thug that

69
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:19.120
<v Speaker 1>lived around there. And I was talking to somebody who

70
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:23.599
<v Speaker 1>rents jet skis in in Lake Minnetonka, and he said, yeah,

71
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:25.199
<v Speaker 1>I grew up with that guy. He was an asshole.

72
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh so yeah, so a little bit of history perience.

73
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, isn't it always creepy when you see the abandoned

74
00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:36.080
<v Speaker 3>amusement parks? Like there aren't any around here? I know, yeah,

75
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.080
<v Speaker 3>no one in Denver or no, there might have been.

76
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Maybe No.

77
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:42.479
<v Speaker 3>I think that that actually is like running. But I

78
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.159
<v Speaker 3>just feel like when you see those abandoned amusement parks,

79
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:49.199
<v Speaker 3>it's like, how many ghosts are haunting that ghost?

80
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:52.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm now thinking of a video game I played that

81
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:55.479
<v Speaker 1>took place in an abandoned amusement park, and now I

82
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:57.759
<v Speaker 1>can't remember what it is. But all right, let's get

83
00:03:57.759 --> 00:04:01.039
<v Speaker 1>on with the emails on the Minnesota goodbye and see

84
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:04.719
<v Speaker 1>what we've got here we go. Well, here's the announcement.

85
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>We're excited to open Valley Fair for the season Monday

86
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:13.759
<v Speaker 1>or Sunday, May eleventh, and if you are interested in

87
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 1>filming a story on May eleventh. Well, we don't film anything,

88
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, I got.

89
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:20.199
<v Speaker 3>That email too, jam, which is just always fun to

90
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:23.399
<v Speaker 3>get emails that. It's like, I work in radio. Yeah,

91
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:25.839
<v Speaker 3>I won't be bringing my news team out there.

92
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:26.720
<v Speaker 2>You know.

93
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:29.800
<v Speaker 1>We probably could though, because radio people do social media videoing.

94
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:32.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, we could, yeah, but I just feel like the

95
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:34.600
<v Speaker 3>way that it was worded was a very generic press

96
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 3>release sent out to all media personnel that they thought

97
00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:39.519
<v Speaker 3>are most likely TV people.

98
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:40.480
<v Speaker 1>That's true.

99
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:42.519
<v Speaker 2>You know. It's nice though, just speaking of ally Fair,

100
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:44.480
<v Speaker 2>if you go on their website and you can actually

101
00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:47.399
<v Speaker 2>watch little videos of all of their rides from like

102
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:48.879
<v Speaker 2>a point of view of being on the ride.

103
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh, that's cool.

104
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:52.560
<v Speaker 2>So I think I could handle Excalibur. That's the one

105
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:53.800
<v Speaker 2>that I'm looking at right now.

106
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's the one that me and Pattia Ebert wrote

107
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.680
<v Speaker 1>on one hundred and one times back in about nineteen

108
00:04:58.759 --> 00:04:59.439
<v Speaker 1>ninety four.

109
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.879
<v Speaker 2>This drop, I can see the bottom, so that's good.

110
00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:05.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's still there, so kind of a wooden one

111
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:07.319
<v Speaker 1>with a little bit of metal. I think the tracks

112
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:09.639
<v Speaker 1>are met well, most roller coaster tracks are metal. Now

113
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:10.560
<v Speaker 1>they think about it, How.

114
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Long did it take you to ride it? All day.

115
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:16.120
<v Speaker 1>We started it probably one Yeah, we started about eleven

116
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:18.600
<v Speaker 1>o'clock in the morning, I guess it was on a weekday.

117
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:20.560
<v Speaker 1>And we went out there and pat and I rode

118
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:23.480
<v Speaker 1>the EXCaliber and I think we rode probably too about

119
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:25.959
<v Speaker 1>thirty times, and then we started to feel sick, so

120
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.639
<v Speaker 1>we took a break and then we rode ten more times.

121
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 1>Then we were really sick.

122
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

123
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:36.079
<v Speaker 1>And I think it took until probably evening, like maybe

124
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>six o'clock, but we did get all one hundred and

125
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>one rides in. It was not a lot of fun, no,

126
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:45.360
<v Speaker 1>and there was a plaque at the loading area of

127
00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Excalibur for years that said Dave Ryan and Patty Eberts

128
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:50.120
<v Speaker 1>from KWB rode this hundred one times.

129
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:52.319
<v Speaker 2>Not there anymore, No, it's not there. I mean it

130
00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:54.079
<v Speaker 2>would have been so cute to like go back and

131
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:57.639
<v Speaker 2>remember that, though it would Yeah.

132
00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:58.399
<v Speaker 1>Well maybe this summer you should go ride it one

133
00:05:58.480 --> 00:05:59.120
<v Speaker 1>hundred one times.

134
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:01.399
<v Speaker 2>No, never mind, I'll write it once.

151
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>talking about. She is the one who wanted to write

152
00:06:56.120 --> 00:07:00.480
<v Speaker 1>she wrote about getting the puppy. Yes, Okay, isn't she Yeah?

153
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:02.160
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I don't know if she's the one, but we've

154
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:04.160
<v Speaker 3>been talking about someone who wants to get a puppy.

155
00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's her. So anyway, So she's heard some feedback

156
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:12.319
<v Speaker 1>from people saying, if you can't afford it, don't get it.

157
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:14.560
<v Speaker 1>Your mom and dad shouldn't be paying for things. I

158
00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:16.240
<v Speaker 1>want to clear some stuff up. I've been on my

159
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:18.360
<v Speaker 1>own since twenty two, paying my own bills, moved out

160
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:20.800
<v Speaker 1>at twenty three, and paying rent my own rent since

161
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:23.800
<v Speaker 1>the only thing my parents were paying for is my

162
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>car insurance, and that was because they bought the truck.

163
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:29.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure why we never transferred the payment. It

164
00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:31.160
<v Speaker 1>just never came up until I bought a new truck

165
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:34.560
<v Speaker 1>and obviously was then responsible for my own insurance. Okay,

166
00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:37.000
<v Speaker 1>and yes, every now and then I would get a

167
00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:39.680
<v Speaker 1>large scary bill from my old ass truck and would

168
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:42.839
<v Speaker 1>complain about it, not ask for money, and sometimes my

169
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:44.959
<v Speaker 1>parents would help by giving me money to help pay

170
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.959
<v Speaker 1>for it. I am a responsible adult who works full

171
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.720
<v Speaker 1>time with two part time jobs full time, two part

172
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.279
<v Speaker 1>time jobs. I just have a very expensive hobby, and

173
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:55.279
<v Speaker 1>sometimes my parents like to help me with that because

174
00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:57.759
<v Speaker 1>a horse truck and trailer is a lot to put

175
00:07:57.759 --> 00:08:00.279
<v Speaker 1>on a young adult. The maintenance of a truck alone

176
00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:02.680
<v Speaker 1>is a lot more expensive than a normal car. Regardless,

177
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:05.560
<v Speaker 1>I've always assumed at the expense that come with orning

178
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:08.959
<v Speaker 1>a horse truck and trailer. Anyway, I told my parents

179
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:10.920
<v Speaker 1>about the puppy. They took it very well. Maybe a

180
00:08:10.959 --> 00:08:14.040
<v Speaker 1>little annoyed at first, but overall they know my love

181
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:15.600
<v Speaker 1>for animals and they get it. They have an old

182
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:17.920
<v Speaker 1>dog at home and she is my girl. We know

183
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.079
<v Speaker 1>she doesn't have much time left, as she's been declining

184
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.680
<v Speaker 1>fairly quickly. I think the puppy is a good distraction

185
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:25.959
<v Speaker 1>for everyone but me, especially when the time comes. PS.

186
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Somebody said, buy a fucking plant. Remember that?

187
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, yeah, ps.

188
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:32.759
<v Speaker 1>I do have many houseplants, but they do not cuddle

189
00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:35.960
<v Speaker 1>quite the same as a dog does. Anyway, I appreciate

190
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the feedback. I'm very fortunate to have parents that have

191
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:40.600
<v Speaker 1>been able to support my hobby growing up, and even

192
00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:42.879
<v Speaker 1>more fortunate to have been able to continue to enjoy

193
00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:46.039
<v Speaker 1>my hobby through my early adulthood. I am really excited

194
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:48.919
<v Speaker 1>about welcoming a puppy into my life. You know what,

195
00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:50.840
<v Speaker 1>if it works for you, and it works for your parents,

196
00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:54.320
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't affect me, then I don't care. Good for you.

197
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, okay, and I hope it's cute and snuggy.

198
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:05.679
<v Speaker 1>Next one, let's see, here we go. This is it

199
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:07.840
<v Speaker 1>in New York City. I've been meaning to write in

200
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.519
<v Speaker 1>for a long time, so I'm currently typing this mail

201
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:15.200
<v Speaker 1>email at my desk at work. I'll try to be brief,

202
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:19.159
<v Speaker 1>but here are some random questions. My sister is having

203
00:09:19.200 --> 00:09:22.279
<v Speaker 1>a bachelorette party in Charleston, South Carolina, and we're trying

204
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:24.120
<v Speaker 1>to figure out a theme for one of our nights out.

205
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.639
<v Speaker 1>We're trying to strike a balance between fun and simple.

206
00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:28.960
<v Speaker 1>We don't want to make everybody buy new clothes or

207
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:32.240
<v Speaker 1>accessories because the trip as expensive as it is. What

208
00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:35.639
<v Speaker 1>are your thoughts. I have no thoughts on this. I

209
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:36.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know, m.

210
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:40.440
<v Speaker 3>Okay, because they don't want to buy accessories. I was

211
00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:42.559
<v Speaker 3>gonna say, just buy some cheap wigs, because I always

212
00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:44.200
<v Speaker 3>think that that's fun and easy, and then you can

213
00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:45.759
<v Speaker 3>wear whatever you want. But you know you're in the

214
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:47.759
<v Speaker 3>bachelorette party if you're wearing a wig. But if you

215
00:09:47.799 --> 00:09:49.480
<v Speaker 3>don't want to do that, I would say, just find

216
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:51.960
<v Speaker 3>a color scheme of like obviously, the bridewear is white,

217
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:56.440
<v Speaker 3>and I've seen a lot of like more like fluorescent

218
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:01.080
<v Speaker 3>colors together, Like just see what people have or color

219
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:04.519
<v Speaker 3>coordinates with what people have already. It's always easy to

220
00:10:04.600 --> 00:10:07.080
<v Speaker 3>just have everyone wear black and the brideware white too.

221
00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:09.639
<v Speaker 1>Okay, what about an activity? I mean, do you think

222
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:10.799
<v Speaker 1>she's looking for activities.

223
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:14.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh there's Charleston's like one of the top etcera destinations

224
00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:18.080
<v Speaker 3>now for hoping. So I'm sure they've got it planned

225
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:18.639
<v Speaker 3>by now.

226
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, then, Sid says commenting on the woman who

227
00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:25.159
<v Speaker 1>wrote in about getting a dog and still needing help

228
00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:28.120
<v Speaker 1>from her parents, which we just covered. In my opinion,

229
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:30.200
<v Speaker 1>if you can't afford something, you don't get it. To me,

230
00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:32.480
<v Speaker 1>if you're making a choice like that to spend money

231
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:35.279
<v Speaker 1>on something you don't technically need, you don't have a

232
00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:37.279
<v Speaker 1>right to ask your parents for help. You don't get

233
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.039
<v Speaker 1>to buy your wants and beg for your needs. Believe me,

234
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:43.879
<v Speaker 1>I totally understand early adulthood and parents helping out, but

235
00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:46.519
<v Speaker 1>this isn't the same thing. If you're concerned about pet cots,

236
00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:49.960
<v Speaker 1>look into pet insurance. Well that's when they can really

237
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:51.759
<v Speaker 1>nail you, is when you take your dog in because

238
00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:53.840
<v Speaker 1>they're you know, they can't poop or they won't eat,

239
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and then they go, oh, yeah, she needs surgery. It's

240
00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:58.879
<v Speaker 1>going to be thirty two hundred dollars, and that is

241
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, I mean, it's like you have a choice,

242
00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:04.799
<v Speaker 1>then let the dog die or get the surgery.

243
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:06.840
<v Speaker 2>And usually you'll get the surgery.

244
00:11:06.919 --> 00:11:10.759
<v Speaker 1>You will. My dog Rex could not poop. He was older,

245
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:14.519
<v Speaker 1>and I think we spent five thousand dollars to tighten

246
00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:18.759
<v Speaker 1>up his butt anal muscles so he could poop again.

247
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:21.120
<v Speaker 1>And he lived probably another year after that. But you know,

248
00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:23.200
<v Speaker 1>he was our boy, yeah, and we were fortunate to

249
00:11:23.200 --> 00:11:25.799
<v Speaker 1>be able to afford it. Question for the group, what

250
00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:28.039
<v Speaker 1>is on the top of your bucket list? Not your

251
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:31.080
<v Speaker 1>wish list bucket list, but the list of things you

252
00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:33.759
<v Speaker 1>will actually be devastated about if you don't get to do.

253
00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:36.840
<v Speaker 1>For example, I have items on my bucket list like

254
00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:40.600
<v Speaker 1>go into Wimbledon or traveling to New Zealand, but I

255
00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:44.559
<v Speaker 1>only have two items on my real bucket list, having

256
00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:47.879
<v Speaker 1>children living abroad. So I guess what she's saying is, Oh,

257
00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:50.759
<v Speaker 1>it would be really cool if I could own my

258
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:53.879
<v Speaker 1>own theme park one day, but that's not going to happen.

259
00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:57.240
<v Speaker 1>It's the thing that you really want to do, and

260
00:11:57.279 --> 00:11:58.759
<v Speaker 1>if you don't get to do it, you will feel

261
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.240
<v Speaker 1>like you missed out on something in life. Anything come

262
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:02.960
<v Speaker 1>to mine, Jenny, anything to come to mine.

263
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:06.440
<v Speaker 3>Ugh, I mean mine's all just travel based. I just

264
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:09.519
<v Speaker 3>wish I could go take six months off and travel

265
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:13.799
<v Speaker 3>all around like South America or Southeast Asia maybe eure up,

266
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:15.080
<v Speaker 3>that's probably mine.

267
00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:16.960
<v Speaker 2>And might's just go to Graceland with my mom and

268
00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:18.799
<v Speaker 2>own a house. Those are two things that I think

269
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:21.080
<v Speaker 2>I could potentially do in my life, okay, and I

270
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:23.480
<v Speaker 2>will likely do them both at some point in time.

271
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:26.559
<v Speaker 2>Me and my mom literally talked about Graceland yesterday and

272
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:29.799
<v Speaker 2>we're like, let's actually get some shit on paper, so

273
00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:31.759
<v Speaker 2>we do it instead of just talking about it.

274
00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:34.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't really have a lot. I do want to

275
00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:38.360
<v Speaker 1>ride the motorcycle to Alaska one day, so cool. I

276
00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:42.159
<v Speaker 1>think that'd be really cool. But now we might take

277
00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:46.080
<v Speaker 1>the RV. The problem Jenny with the RV is it

278
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:48.120
<v Speaker 1>gets and this is awful. This is what I fucking

279
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.240
<v Speaker 1>hate about it because I'm really like, I care about

280
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the environment. I pick up things when I go for

281
00:12:53.080 --> 00:12:56.320
<v Speaker 1>a walk. I picked up two cigarette butts and a

282
00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:59.159
<v Speaker 1>bread twisty tab you know the little square ones with

283
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.080
<v Speaker 1>a hole in it. Found that on the path, So

284
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't like fucking up the environment. The RV gets

285
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:09.039
<v Speaker 1>about eight miles to the gallon, which is like absurd.

286
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:13.080
<v Speaker 1>It is that means ten gallons of gas to go

287
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:15.440
<v Speaker 1>eighty miles. So if I'm going to go from here

288
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:22.799
<v Speaker 1>to Red Wigan back, that is ten gallons of gas. Ridiculous. Yeah,

289
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:24.360
<v Speaker 1>but I would like to do that. Also, would like

290
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:26.200
<v Speaker 1>to go to the Cascades. Like you know, I've never

291
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:31.440
<v Speaker 1>seen like mountaineer in Mount oly the Olympus. I don't

292
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:33.080
<v Speaker 1>know whatever is out there now.

293
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:34.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm blanket even though I've been.

294
00:13:34.679 --> 00:13:37.600
<v Speaker 3>I think it's Olympia. I'm going to look it up though,

295
00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:41.000
<v Speaker 3>because i've literally, oh it is No, that's in Greece.

296
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:43.879
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well mountain, but that's why I don't know anything

297
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:45.720
<v Speaker 1>about it. But I would love to see the Cascades,

298
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:49.399
<v Speaker 1>and that is on my bucket list I really don't have.

299
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:51.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm not like I want to go to Fiji. I

300
00:13:51.720 --> 00:13:53.039
<v Speaker 1>want to go to Iceland. I don't want to go

301
00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:55.240
<v Speaker 1>to Greece. I don't want to go I'm not a

302
00:13:55.399 --> 00:13:58.519
<v Speaker 1>traveler kind of a person. I think there's enough to

303
00:13:58.600 --> 00:13:59.399
<v Speaker 1>see here.

304
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:03.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, I have a lot of My algorithm

305
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:05.600
<v Speaker 3>is travel based, so I see a lot of things

306
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:07.919
<v Speaker 3>that it's like I've traveled the entire world and these

307
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:11.879
<v Speaker 3>are my top countries, and the United States is always

308
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:16.799
<v Speaker 3>in it because the just diverse landscape that we have here.

309
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:17.559
<v Speaker 2>It really is.

310
00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:20.399
<v Speaker 3>But also the United States is huge, whereas like Iceland

311
00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:22.480
<v Speaker 3>is the size of Texas or whatever, you know.

312
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:25.080
<v Speaker 1>So it's oh, I think it's even smaller probably.

313
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 2>And actually probably is.

314
00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:28.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, But a lot of people say, like, you know,

315
00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:31.720
<v Speaker 3>people feel like they have to go to Europe to

316
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:35.639
<v Speaker 3>experience different like the mountains in Switzerland and stuff, but

317
00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:38.200
<v Speaker 3>really there's so much in the United States too.

318
00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I've never been really to driven through Utah, but never

319
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:45.120
<v Speaker 1>through the pretty part of Utah. I've never been like

320
00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:50.639
<v Speaker 1>northern California in like the Redwoods, Washington, Oregon, what else

321
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:51.279
<v Speaker 1>is up that way?

322
00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:55.120
<v Speaker 3>Idaho, Washington. I just think like the Pacific Northwest is

323
00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:57.759
<v Speaker 3>probably my favorite area of the country. And I don't

324
00:14:57.840 --> 00:15:00.759
<v Speaker 3>know why, like what I could nail down, because there's

325
00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:04.679
<v Speaker 3>mountains in multiple different states. But it's like the smells,

326
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:08.600
<v Speaker 3>it's the trees, it's just like also being close to water.

327
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:10.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, I know about that.

328
00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:13.559
<v Speaker 1>But what troubles me is how crowded everything has become.

329
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.399
<v Speaker 1>Like in Colorado, I grew up there and it was

330
00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:20.720
<v Speaker 1>it never seemed crowded back then, But now to get

331
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:22.799
<v Speaker 1>up into the mountains on Interstate seventy. You go from

332
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Denver up into the mountains on weekends, there's a traffic jam.

333
00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:29.759
<v Speaker 1>Coming back. On Sunday afternoons, there's a traffic jam in

334
00:15:29.799 --> 00:15:32.759
<v Speaker 1>Colorado Springs. Going up in a highway twenty four, there's

335
00:15:32.799 --> 00:15:36.559
<v Speaker 1>a traffic jam and coming back. And that's what I

336
00:15:36.600 --> 00:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>worry about with the crowds. A friend of mine went

337
00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:41.519
<v Speaker 1>to the Grand Canyon last summer with his family. There

338
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>was a five hour wait to get into the front

339
00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:47.519
<v Speaker 1>gate or one of the gates at the Grand Canyon.

340
00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:51.159
<v Speaker 1>Five hours. Yeah, and I think about going to Yosemite

341
00:15:51.159 --> 00:15:53.240
<v Speaker 1>because I've always wanted to see Yosemite, But it seems

342
00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:57.919
<v Speaker 1>like it's just people, people, people, cars, cars, cars everywhere,

343
00:15:58.200 --> 00:15:59.720
<v Speaker 1>and I would be one of those. So I can't

344
00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:02.879
<v Speaker 1>blame the other people, but it just kind of where

345
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:06.279
<v Speaker 1>can you still go in the United States where there's

346
00:16:06.279 --> 00:16:07.039
<v Speaker 1>not crowds.

347
00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:08.799
<v Speaker 3>Well, you got to go in the off seasons.

348
00:16:08.879 --> 00:16:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's why.

349
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:14.200
<v Speaker 3>But unfortunately, you know, Glacier, you can't experience most of

350
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:16.840
<v Speaker 3>Glacier in the off season, like roads are closed down,

351
00:16:16.919 --> 00:16:19.200
<v Speaker 3>it's dangerous, like you don't have access to a lot

352
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:21.720
<v Speaker 3>of stuff. So that's why it becomes so busy in

353
00:16:21.720 --> 00:16:23.840
<v Speaker 3>the summer and there is such a long wait because

354
00:16:24.360 --> 00:16:26.559
<v Speaker 3>that's the only time you can go to certain things.

355
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, there's a thing in Glacier called going to the

356
00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:31.919
<v Speaker 1>Sun Road, and we tried to drive up, but we

357
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:35.080
<v Speaker 1>were there, I think in July and the snow was

358
00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:37.799
<v Speaker 1>still too deep on going to the Sun Road and

359
00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:40.399
<v Speaker 1>we couldn't go. Yeah, it's like, well fuck, if you

360
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:42.639
<v Speaker 1>go during the wintertime, there's no way you can go

361
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:46.879
<v Speaker 1>up that road. So anyway, what is on your bucket list?

362
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:50.200
<v Speaker 1>What would you recommend? Where do you go to get

363
00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:52.519
<v Speaker 1>away from the crowds? What do you want to talk

364
00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:55.639
<v Speaker 1>about on the Minnesota Goodbye? Send an email because we

365
00:16:55.759 --> 00:16:57.840
<v Speaker 1>always love your emails and that's really what the heart

366
00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:00.200
<v Speaker 1>of the show is is finding out what's on your mind.

367
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:02.360
<v Speaker 1>And you've given us something to talk about, so we

00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:06.599
<v Speaker 1>appreciate you. Send those in to Ryan's show at KDWB

369
00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:09.119
<v Speaker 1>dot com. Short or long, We love all of them.
