WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Here we go with a Minnesota goodbye. Let's start off

2
00:00:03.680 --> 00:00:08.560
<v Speaker 1>with a rant from our friend Juanita. You guys, ready, yeah, right,

3
00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:09.720
<v Speaker 1>let me find her and I get to puh a

4
00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:11.640
<v Speaker 1>couple of buttons. I should push these buttons in advance,

5
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:13.560
<v Speaker 1>because every week when I play her rent, I always say,

6
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:15.839
<v Speaker 1>let me go push some buttons. But I think we're ready,

7
00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:21.280
<v Speaker 1>And here we go with Juanita chicken. Wait, hold on, wait,

8
00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:23.480
<v Speaker 1>got to back it up, back it up. Here we go.

9
00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:29.039
<v Speaker 2>Hey, hey, y'all, So this week's rent is about chickens.

10
00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:34.799
<v Speaker 2>So since when has chickens become the Beyonce Barnyard. I mean,

11
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:36.759
<v Speaker 2>back in the day, I did not pay the same

12
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:38.560
<v Speaker 2>price for a pack of chicken wings that I did

13
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:39.799
<v Speaker 2>for a fucking chicken breast.

14
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:42.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is getting ridiculous.

15
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.359
<v Speaker 2>It's like suddenly a six piece nugget is worth more

16
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:49.240
<v Speaker 2>than a bitcoin. But the other issue that I'm having

17
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:51.960
<v Speaker 2>with chickens is where the hell are we getting all

18
00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:55.280
<v Speaker 2>these fucking chickens from. So I looked it up and

19
00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:58.759
<v Speaker 2>they said that during the Super Bowl last year, America's

20
00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:02.719
<v Speaker 2>consumed over one point four to seven billion chicken wings.

21
00:01:03.159 --> 00:01:06.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean, seriously, and that's just for one day. Where

22
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:09.439
<v Speaker 2>the fuck are we getting all these chickens? For that

23
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:11.319
<v Speaker 2>amount of chickens that means that you usually will be

24
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.079
<v Speaker 2>able to open your door and there's just chickens walking

25
00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:14.840
<v Speaker 2>up and down the street.

26
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:15.560
<v Speaker 1>What's up?

27
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:18.719
<v Speaker 2>What's up with two? It's like, damn, where the hell

28
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:21.680
<v Speaker 2>are we getting all these fucking chickens? Well, that's my

29
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:22.480
<v Speaker 2>rant for this week.

30
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>I love you guys, by I have wondered the same thing,

31
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:27.840
<v Speaker 1>because there are think about it. There is chick fil A.

32
00:01:28.680 --> 00:01:35.120
<v Speaker 1>They're selling canes, KFC chicken, Caesar salad, Buffalo Wild Wings,

33
00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:38.319
<v Speaker 1>chicken is everywhere you go into cub, you go into

34
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:41.640
<v Speaker 1>Buyerley's Rotisserie, chickens are stacked up by the registers. Yeah,

35
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 1>there are is. And it's like, these chickens are coming

36
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:47.439
<v Speaker 1>from somewhere, and I think, where do they? I mean,

37
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:51.120
<v Speaker 1>obviously they're being raised somewhere, probably some little town like

38
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:55.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Wilma or man Cato or something like that. Yeah,

39
00:01:55.120 --> 00:02:00.680
<v Speaker 1>and then you think about the byproduct of a dead chicken, feathers, feathers, guts, legs, beaks,

40
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:03.840
<v Speaker 1>and heads. Where does all this go? It's the same

41
00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 1>with cows.

42
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:06.640
<v Speaker 3>Well, feathers. Can't you use those for pillows?

43
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:09.080
<v Speaker 1>No, that's gooseh chicken feathers. Let me tell you, grown

44
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>up on chicken farm, they are not soft feathers. I

45
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.080
<v Speaker 1>guess in a real pinch they would work. But yeah,

46
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:17.319
<v Speaker 1>I think that people don't realize that the food supply

47
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:21.879
<v Speaker 1>chain is massively demanding and chicken's gotta eat and drink

48
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:22.400
<v Speaker 1>water too.

49
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:22.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

50
00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:25.319
<v Speaker 4>Well, I mean I can understand the reason there's so

51
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:28.599
<v Speaker 4>many chickens because that's like a universal.

52
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:29.159
<v Speaker 3>Meat that everybody likes.

53
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Everybody loves it.

54
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:33.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, everyone likes chicken. Huh, I love chicken.

55
00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:37.719
<v Speaker 1>Well, there's so many though, So I thought Juanita. I

56
00:02:37.719 --> 00:02:40.280
<v Speaker 1>think Juanita and I, in another lifetime we would be

57
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:43.879
<v Speaker 1>happily married until one day she got tired of me

58
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:46.039
<v Speaker 1>and woke up and killed me with a skillet. It

59
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:47.080
<v Speaker 1>was a skillet, I.

60
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:49.560
<v Speaker 5>Mean, just like one whack across the head. You think

61
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:53.479
<v Speaker 5>she Wania seems like a strong woman. She could do

62
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:56.520
<v Speaker 5>one song whack by Dave.

63
00:02:56.919 --> 00:02:59.560
<v Speaker 3>The brand of the skillet is engraved on your face.

64
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, all right, I love this email. I preread it.

65
00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:09.280
<v Speaker 1>It's so interesting and I just love it. Don't say

66
00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:11.719
<v Speaker 1>my name close friends know this story, and I truly

67
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:14.439
<v Speaker 1>hold no shame, But you never know how listeners might

68
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:17.840
<v Speaker 1>feel about this one. It's an embarrassing coming of age story.

69
00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:21.759
<v Speaker 1>At what point does this story become funny not traumatic?

70
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:25.520
<v Speaker 1>It is said that tragedy becomes comedy with the application

71
00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:29.199
<v Speaker 1>of time. I experienced that firsthand. I'm going through puberty,

72
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:33.199
<v Speaker 1>so you got to figure twelve or thirteen. I'm full

73
00:03:33.199 --> 00:03:36.560
<v Speaker 1>of the brooding frustration that came with the rejection of boys.

74
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 1>I was a plain girl and I discovered Google Images.

75
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Not only did I discover Google Images, I discovered what

76
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:45.719
<v Speaker 1>porn was at the age of twelve. Only I thought

77
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:50.280
<v Speaker 1>it was spelled po rm, like mechanic porm. So with

78
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:52.520
<v Speaker 1>this horrible new information, I ran home from school and

79
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:58.319
<v Speaker 1>quickly googled porm. Google said, did you mean porn? Well, well, sure, sure,

80
00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:01.639
<v Speaker 1>I suppose I did mean that carefully on my own

81
00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>account that the family shared the computer, I with a

82
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:06.719
<v Speaker 1>safe search that I didn't know how was applied. I

83
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:11.199
<v Speaker 1>saw all sorts of adults in various levels of undress, kissing,

84
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:14.639
<v Speaker 1>embracing in other ways I had no business of viewing.

85
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:19.279
<v Speaker 1>I googled everything boys kissing, girls kissing, any juvenile thing

86
00:04:19.319 --> 00:04:22.160
<v Speaker 1>I could think of. Carefully and with a judgmental eye

87
00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:24.759
<v Speaker 1>of a shrewd expert, I slowly put together a wonderful

88
00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:28.920
<v Speaker 1>collage on Microsoft words of the images I thought were

89
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:33.560
<v Speaker 1>most compelling. I then admired my artful collage and printed

90
00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:36.160
<v Speaker 1>it off on the home computer using family toner. I

91
00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:38.199
<v Speaker 1>quickly hit it away in my room and told no

92
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:43.480
<v Speaker 1>one of my lacivious creation. Then my mother found my

93
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:46.800
<v Speaker 1>art while I was away at summer camp. Subsequently, I

94
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:49.800
<v Speaker 1>dealt with the horrible humiliation of my mother finding my collage.

95
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.439
<v Speaker 1>It wrecked me at the time, but now, looking back,

96
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I think the entire story is hilariously funny. I realized

97
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:58.160
<v Speaker 1>that every one of us has our own story of discovery,

98
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:01.759
<v Speaker 1>and the early teen years are truly a whirlwind experience

99
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:06.079
<v Speaker 1>for all of us. Anyway, hopefully it makes you laugh

100
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:08.279
<v Speaker 1>and look back with some forgiveness on our past selves,

101
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:10.720
<v Speaker 1>take care and lots of love. And she signs her

102
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:15.399
<v Speaker 1>initial J. I think that's adorable. I think that the

103
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:20.279
<v Speaker 1>first time that we discover porn is kind of shocking.

104
00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:24.920
<v Speaker 1>Playboy was like the go to when I was a

105
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:28.920
<v Speaker 1>kid and my friend's dad had old Playboy magazines and

106
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.600
<v Speaker 1>we would look them up and it was like wow.

107
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:35.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean we were like fourth or fifth grade and

108
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:39.319
<v Speaker 1>we didn't get aroused. I don't think more just like cure,

109
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.480
<v Speaker 1>there's a naked woman, there's your boobies.

110
00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:41.920
<v Speaker 4>Whoa.

111
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:46.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So anybody have a similar story to share. If not,

112
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:47.040
<v Speaker 1>that's okay.

113
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:49.319
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I think it's hilarious that she made a

114
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:51.199
<v Speaker 4>collage because I used to do that all the time

115
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:53.560
<v Speaker 4>with like you know, the Harry Potter actors and whatever.

116
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:57.399
<v Speaker 4>But I don't think I ever like discovered porn.

117
00:05:57.800 --> 00:05:59.839
<v Speaker 3>I read the book Catcher.

118
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:04.040
<v Speaker 4>In the Rock and it explained like in detail masturbation.

119
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:05.279
<v Speaker 3>That was the first time I ever heard of that.

120
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:06.839
<v Speaker 1>Oh really, I read that in seventh grade. I don't

121
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:07.439
<v Speaker 1>remember that part.

122
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:07.839
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

123
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:09.439
<v Speaker 3>I think it was Catcher and the Rye.

124
00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.720
<v Speaker 4>It was some kind of like you know Indie Emo

125
00:06:12.839 --> 00:06:15.319
<v Speaker 4>book that like everybody said you should read, and I

126
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:16.639
<v Speaker 4>think I was in ninth grade and I read it

127
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.160
<v Speaker 4>and I was like, tho foo, it was wild.

128
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:21.480
<v Speaker 3>Okay, interesting, But that was kind of it for me.

129
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:25.879
<v Speaker 1>I think that is a very funny story, and it is.

130
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:27.399
<v Speaker 1>It's like at the time, you can imagine if you're

131
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:29.839
<v Speaker 1>twelve or thirteen and your mom finds your porn collage,

132
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:34.560
<v Speaker 1>your collage there on pain Yeah, and then you're mortified.

133
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:40.439
<v Speaker 1>But looking back, it's totally normal and totally adorable and funny.

134
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Maybe not adorable, but totally understandable. Next one says, listen

135
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:48.040
<v Speaker 1>to the Thursday's Minnesota Goodbye podcast. You mentioned on a

136
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:50.399
<v Speaker 1>scale of one to ten how happy you are, and

137
00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:53.040
<v Speaker 1>it got me thinking. I sit at a five most

138
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:56.600
<v Speaker 1>of the time, neither super happy nor super sad. So

139
00:06:56.680 --> 00:06:58.759
<v Speaker 1>my question is, how do you make yourself feel happier.

140
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:01.160
<v Speaker 1>I was talking with partner this week about how I

141
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.399
<v Speaker 1>feel stuck in a rut. I work from home most days.

142
00:07:03.399 --> 00:07:05.560
<v Speaker 1>The office is close by, but I choose to stay home,

143
00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:07.959
<v Speaker 1>so it feels like I'm really just moving around my

144
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:10.160
<v Speaker 1>house to different rooms, or I'm in the car driving

145
00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:12.720
<v Speaker 1>my kid all around the Metro for their sports practices.

146
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I consider myself an introvert, but I'm feeling more and

147
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>more cooped up these days. I have a handful of hobbies.

148
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:22.600
<v Speaker 1>I enjoy them, but a lot of them are hobbies

149
00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:26.399
<v Speaker 1>that don't involve others, like reading, crafting, walking, etc. I

150
00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:28.399
<v Speaker 1>have one close friend outside of my partner and a

151
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:30.920
<v Speaker 1>few others that go through ebbs and flows of friendship.

152
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:33.759
<v Speaker 1>What do you suggest to make my life feel not

153
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:36.160
<v Speaker 1>so monotonous. That's a good story. I'm going to send

154
00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:37.680
<v Speaker 1>that to you, Jenny, because I think that's a good

155
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:40.720
<v Speaker 1>story for the radio too. Jenny, there we go, So

156
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:43.519
<v Speaker 1>we'll maybe use that next week. What do you think

157
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:44.279
<v Speaker 1>what would you give her?

158
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:47.759
<v Speaker 4>Oh Man, I feel like if you're looking to meet people,

159
00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:51.519
<v Speaker 4>I always tell others to take a class, take a workshop,

160
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:54.680
<v Speaker 4>like something that you're interested in learning. How to do

161
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:55.959
<v Speaker 4>that is something.

162
00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:59.000
<v Speaker 3>Like creative that you have to like enroll.

163
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.199
<v Speaker 4>In something and start showing up every week to go

164
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:04.560
<v Speaker 4>and do it, like improv classes or dance classes or

165
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:07.480
<v Speaker 4>whatever you want to go do. Because I met pretty

166
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:10.360
<v Speaker 4>much everybody I know through some kind of class or.

167
00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:12.279
<v Speaker 3>Community event like a play or something.

168
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, now she does say, now it's interesting that you

169
00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:19.439
<v Speaker 1>went to meeting people. She doesn't say she wants to

170
00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:23.040
<v Speaker 1>meet people, although that could add to her happiness. That

171
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:26.160
<v Speaker 1>adds to your happiness. She wants to be happy, but

172
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:27.839
<v Speaker 1>she's not sure what will make her happy.

173
00:08:27.879 --> 00:08:30.480
<v Speaker 4>So star, well, if it's not, If you don't want

174
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:33.720
<v Speaker 4>a monotonous life, I think that's the learning something. The

175
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:36.720
<v Speaker 4>learning aspect is what makes my life not monotonous if

176
00:08:36.720 --> 00:08:39.759
<v Speaker 4>I'm constantly learning, So going to classes, yeah I get

177
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:41.679
<v Speaker 4>to meet people, but I'm also learning something at the

178
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:44.559
<v Speaker 4>same time, and I think that makes it makes my

179
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:46.240
<v Speaker 4>life not monotonous.

180
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:49.159
<v Speaker 5>I think also Facebook groups are huge right now to

181
00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:53.919
<v Speaker 5>like either make friends like Bailey a suggesting or maybe

182
00:08:53.960 --> 00:08:56.759
<v Speaker 5>just learn things yourself. And I think that that's less

183
00:08:56.799 --> 00:08:59.879
<v Speaker 5>intimidating than what Bailey probably did to go out and

184
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:02.519
<v Speaker 5>do new things and meet people, because you don't have

185
00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:05.039
<v Speaker 5>to go do anything I'm a part of like a

186
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:08.120
<v Speaker 5>camper van Facebook group, a hiking Facebook group, like all

187
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:10.360
<v Speaker 5>these things that are like interests of mine, and I

188
00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:12.759
<v Speaker 5>usually just go to them to learn things or see

189
00:09:12.759 --> 00:09:15.039
<v Speaker 5>what people are posting. But I don't really do a

190
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:17.679
<v Speaker 5>whole ton, but it helps me with things that are

191
00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:21.120
<v Speaker 5>hobbies to me. So I think Facebook groups can be helpful.

192
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:25.879
<v Speaker 1>I would say try something new and maybe that it

193
00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:30.360
<v Speaker 1>does involve a group like I don't know, yoga or

194
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:34.639
<v Speaker 1>something new, because reading, crafting, walking, that's great. You sound

195
00:09:34.679 --> 00:09:39.399
<v Speaker 1>like a very I don't know, like they're very sedate hobbies. Yeah,

196
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:42.919
<v Speaker 1>maybe you need something that's a little more active. You

197
00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:46.320
<v Speaker 1>do walk. Yeah, So I would say, maybe try something new,

198
00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:49.240
<v Speaker 1>Maybe try learning an instrument. Maybe go down and buy

199
00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:52.240
<v Speaker 1>a guitar and learn to play guitar. They're not that

200
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:56.440
<v Speaker 1>hard to learn the basics on a guitar. I did

201
00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:58.039
<v Speaker 1>the ukulele and I love it.

202
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.240
<v Speaker 4>So or joined like a book club if you like reading,

203
00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:04.039
<v Speaker 4>that's a good idea too. Then you're having conversation about

204
00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:06.279
<v Speaker 4>the book and you're going to a thing. I know,

205
00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:09.600
<v Speaker 4>like the going places isn't for everybody, and like you know,

206
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:11.240
<v Speaker 4>facebook groups you could join like an.

207
00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:14.879
<v Speaker 3>Online book club. But I always I like going places.

208
00:10:14.519 --> 00:10:16.720
<v Speaker 4>Because it holds me accountable to actually do the thing,

209
00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:20.039
<v Speaker 4>versus holding myself accountable to do the things like on

210
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:22.279
<v Speaker 4>my own, Like okay, I have to rely on myself

211
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:24.840
<v Speaker 4>to do this versus oh well I have it. Six

212
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:27.799
<v Speaker 4>o'clock on Wednesdays is book club, so I have to show.

213
00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:28.039
<v Speaker 3>Up, you know.

214
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:28.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

215
00:10:28.559 --> 00:10:31.080
<v Speaker 5>I would argue though that like if it's intimidating and

216
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:32.840
<v Speaker 5>you go to the thing a couple times and you

217
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:35.639
<v Speaker 5>don't like it, don't force yourself. Because there's like something

218
00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:38.639
<v Speaker 5>that I've done recently where I've kind of just started

219
00:10:38.639 --> 00:10:39.919
<v Speaker 5>to bail on it because.

220
00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:41.320
<v Speaker 1>It was yeah.

221
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:43.080
<v Speaker 6>I mean it's the softball league I joined.

222
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:44.519
<v Speaker 1>Okay, it wasn't your thing.

223
00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:46.639
<v Speaker 5>Truthfully, I'm still going to show up to the games

224
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:49.080
<v Speaker 5>that are coming up, but I've bailed on one week

225
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:50.759
<v Speaker 5>and it's been rained out every other week, and then

226
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:52.320
<v Speaker 5>this past week I was at that retreat so I

227
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.320
<v Speaker 5>couldn't go. So I've literally only been to the first

228
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.080
<v Speaker 5>games of five weeks of games.

229
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:58.759
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of rained out, are we doing a lake patrol

230
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:00.919
<v Speaker 1>this summer? Have we heard anything about lake patrol?

231
00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:02.000
<v Speaker 6>Have not turned any?

232
00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, because we live in Minnesota. About fifteen years ago,

233
00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:08.200
<v Speaker 1>I came up with the idea, yes, I'll take credit

234
00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:11.639
<v Speaker 1>for it, of lake patrol. We live in the land

235
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:13.440
<v Speaker 1>of ten thousand lakes. Let's go out on a boat

236
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.159
<v Speaker 1>and give away prizes. Okay, brilliant. We did it every year,

237
00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:21.399
<v Speaker 1>we maybe missed one for years, ten or fifteen years,

238
00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:23.799
<v Speaker 1>and we'd go out on Lake Minatanka or Prior Lake

239
00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:25.799
<v Speaker 1>or whatever, and we had a great time. But we

240
00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:28.759
<v Speaker 1>had heard anything about doing it this summer, so I

241
00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:31.600
<v Speaker 1>hope we do. Last summer. I think every appearance that

242
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:33.159
<v Speaker 1>I did on Lake Patrol, I had three of them.

243
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:34.200
<v Speaker 1>It was rained out every time.

244
00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:36.360
<v Speaker 5>And I say, I don't think you the last like

245
00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:39.240
<v Speaker 5>two summers. I think you and Fallan both like never

246
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:42.039
<v Speaker 5>had to do your life patrols because of rain. Yeah,

247
00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:43.279
<v Speaker 5>and Bailey and I had ours.

248
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:45.200
<v Speaker 4>We had one and it was rained out, like we

249
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:46.960
<v Speaker 4>drove all the way there and then they were like

250
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:49.480
<v Speaker 4>it's rained out. They're like, well, I guess we're gonna

251
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:50.799
<v Speaker 4>just turn around and go back home.

252
00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:51.120
<v Speaker 3>I know.

253
00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:53.320
<v Speaker 5>And I can't remember if because usually we do two

254
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:55.360
<v Speaker 5>a summer, and I can't remember if I got out

255
00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:56.039
<v Speaker 5>for one other one.

256
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:57.600
<v Speaker 6>I feel like I did last summer.

257
00:11:57.799 --> 00:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they were a lot of fun because we get

258
00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:00.600
<v Speaker 1>a boat. We go to lake to talk on the

259
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:03.320
<v Speaker 1>north side of Big Island. They call it cruisers Cove,

260
00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:06.600
<v Speaker 1>and we would pull up and get a bullhorn, and

261
00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:09.879
<v Speaker 1>and I just tell you a little bit of what

262
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:12.639
<v Speaker 1>a bitch I am, but also what a perfectionist I am,

263
00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:14.639
<v Speaker 1>because you know it's it's like my idea and I

264
00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:16.879
<v Speaker 1>want to do it the right way. We always needed

265
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:19.639
<v Speaker 1>a bullhorn. You need a bullhorn when you pull up

266
00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:22.840
<v Speaker 1>so you can go he everybody goes katieb And if

267
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:25.559
<v Speaker 1>you want some prizes, yell and scream and we'll bring

268
00:12:25.600 --> 00:12:30.240
<v Speaker 1>some prizes over to you, and fifty percent of the

269
00:12:30.279 --> 00:12:33.960
<v Speaker 1>time the interns would either forget the bullhorn or they

270
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:36.120
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't test it out and the batteries would be dead.

271
00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:38.840
<v Speaker 1>And I would get so frustrated because how do you

272
00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:41.879
<v Speaker 1>let people know you're there on lake patrol without a

273
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:44.919
<v Speaker 1>bullhorn yelling? Go so and you try to yell, but

274
00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:47.320
<v Speaker 1>people can't really hear you. But if you got the bullhorn, man,

275
00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:50.159
<v Speaker 1>people would come out of the fucking would work to

276
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:53.279
<v Speaker 1>get a like a key ring that said katiewb on it,

277
00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:56.840
<v Speaker 1>or a can of PEPSI like it was liquid gold.

278
00:12:57.440 --> 00:12:59.120
<v Speaker 1>But if you don't have a bullhorn, it was it

279
00:12:59.159 --> 00:13:01.639
<v Speaker 1>was lame. And I would I would write to the

280
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:04.159
<v Speaker 1>people in charge, like, can we got to have a

281
00:13:04.200 --> 00:13:06.759
<v Speaker 1>bull horn? Well we had one last week? Yeah, but

282
00:13:06.799 --> 00:13:08.879
<v Speaker 1>the batteries were dead. So it was just me being

283
00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:09.320
<v Speaker 1>a little bit.

284
00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:12.639
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you got to be heard. People come out

285
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:15.240
<v Speaker 4>their little boats, did you hear Katie.

286
00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:19.000
<v Speaker 1>This next one is about Jenny. Jenny, I was listening

287
00:13:19.039 --> 00:13:21.039
<v Speaker 1>to the podcast last night, and your absence on the

288
00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:24.799
<v Speaker 1>show was noticeable, almost as noticeable as when Dave is gone.

289
00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:27.759
<v Speaker 1>To me, that's a huge compliment because it simply doesn't

290
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:30.080
<v Speaker 1>feel the same without you. Don't get me wrong, the

291
00:13:30.080 --> 00:13:32.679
<v Speaker 1>show is still great. Everybody is wonderful, but the noticeable

292
00:13:32.759 --> 00:13:34.879
<v Speaker 1>lack of your presence shows how far you've come on

293
00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:37.799
<v Speaker 1>this show. Go Jenny. Thanks from one of the many

294
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:40.240
<v Speaker 1>many Sarah's in their thirties that ride into the Minnesota

295
00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:45.000
<v Speaker 1>Goodbye that is Sarah. Thank you, Sarah, love it well.

296
00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:48.080
<v Speaker 6>Thank you, Sarah. I appreciate that. I can't. I don't know.

297
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:50.639
<v Speaker 5>It's weird to compare my absence to Dave's because I

298
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:52.879
<v Speaker 5>feel like when Dave's gone its constant, like Wor's Day,

299
00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:59.399
<v Speaker 5>wors Day. There's maybe a text one I'm gone there, he'll.

300
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:00.879
<v Speaker 3>Be back tomorrow.

301
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:04.639
<v Speaker 1>I found this next email kind of funny. It is

302
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:09.639
<v Speaker 1>basically for Bailey. Bailey, guys, aren't everything. Sixty four year

303
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.000
<v Speaker 1>old Irish singer Enya has never been married, never had kids,

304
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:15.919
<v Speaker 1>and lives in a castle with her nine cats. And

305
00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:18.279
<v Speaker 1>those shows a picture of Anya sixty four years old.

306
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:21.759
<v Speaker 1>She's beautiful and her house is a castle. It's a

307
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:25.720
<v Speaker 1>freaking castle, and she has nine cats. Now, you don't

308
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:27.200
<v Speaker 1>have the money to live in a castle.

309
00:14:27.240 --> 00:14:28.519
<v Speaker 3>I have any money, I can.

310
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:30.279
<v Speaker 4>See you with it with nine cats I could have

311
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:32.399
<v Speaker 4>nine cats if I had a house that had like

312
00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:34.440
<v Speaker 4>nine rooms, because I could have a cat in every room.

313
00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:35.399
<v Speaker 3>That'd be really nice.

314
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:39.000
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, I don't. I know, guys aren't everything. Sometimes

315
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:41.559
<v Speaker 4>you just want somebody to squeeze a little bit, that's it.

316
00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:44.679
<v Speaker 4>And I don't have any money. I feel like if

317
00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:48.720
<v Speaker 4>I had any money, i'd be way happier. Obviously, I

318
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:50.480
<v Speaker 4>have a sun like a sun porch.

319
00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:53.320
<v Speaker 3>Maybe that's nice. Or yeah, you have little twinkly lights.

320
00:14:53.480 --> 00:14:55.279
<v Speaker 1>There's an idea you and Jenny should move in together

321
00:14:55.320 --> 00:14:57.320
<v Speaker 1>because Jenny is now she's you know, got some extra

322
00:14:57.399 --> 00:14:59.320
<v Speaker 1>room in the house, so you should move in. Jenny's

323
00:14:59.320 --> 00:14:59.960
<v Speaker 1>got a sun porch.

324
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:02.200
<v Speaker 4>I think Jenny and I wouldn't or we would clash

325
00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:05.240
<v Speaker 4>a little bit in terms of living together because Jenny

326
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:07.759
<v Speaker 4>is a minimalist and I'm a maximalist. Oh, and I

327
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:09.200
<v Speaker 4>think we would combine.

328
00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:12.399
<v Speaker 5>I think we probably would because I am also a

329
00:15:12.440 --> 00:15:15.240
<v Speaker 5>clean freak. And I mean when I did have someone

330
00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:17.639
<v Speaker 5>living with me, that person was decently clean, but like

331
00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:20.879
<v Speaker 5>not to the extent that I wanted. And I realized

332
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:23.159
<v Speaker 5>once I lived alone again that like, I feel a

333
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:25.720
<v Speaker 5>much more at peace in my house because of the

334
00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:26.720
<v Speaker 5>cleanliness that.

335
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:27.320
<v Speaker 3>I keep up with.

336
00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:28.519
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, I get that.

337
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:31.080
<v Speaker 4>I wouldn't say I'm unclean. I just sometimes fold my

338
00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:33.039
<v Speaker 4>laundry and let it sit there for like a week.

339
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:35.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, before I don't do that. I don't like

340
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:40.000
<v Speaker 1>to mess around the house. But when I leave the show,

341
00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:43.159
<v Speaker 1>this big pile of shit over here to my left

342
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:47.480
<v Speaker 1>will all disappear. There are two deck levels, A deck

343
00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:50.159
<v Speaker 1>and B deck of my shit that is stacked over here,

344
00:15:50.399 --> 00:15:52.559
<v Speaker 1>and once I leave, I think it'll all be thrown away.

345
00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:55.279
<v Speaker 6>Well, you're not going to take it in a box home.

346
00:15:56.519 --> 00:15:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't want that puppet. I don't want the other puppets.

347
00:15:58.600 --> 00:15:59.840
<v Speaker 3>Hey that my aunt made.

348
00:15:59.840 --> 00:16:01.159
<v Speaker 1>That I do, but I don't have a place for

349
00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:01.960
<v Speaker 1>that in my home.

350
00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:03.799
<v Speaker 3>There's a million places in your home. You have a

351
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:04.480
<v Speaker 3>big mansion.

352
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:08.000
<v Speaker 5>No, no, Well, because he has too much shit already,

353
00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:10.039
<v Speaker 5>he's like working on getting rid of it. That's why

354
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:13.320
<v Speaker 5>it's like hard to get you presents now for Christmas

355
00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:15.039
<v Speaker 5>or your birthday, because it's always like, I know, he

356
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:16.919
<v Speaker 5>probably already has everything, and I don't want to give

357
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:17.879
<v Speaker 5>him more shit.

358
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:20.399
<v Speaker 1>Gift card to Culver's always works for me.

359
00:16:20.519 --> 00:16:23.039
<v Speaker 6>We do, I think we do to gift cars quite often.

360
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:24.399
<v Speaker 1>You guys, give me a Father's Day present.

361
00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:26.080
<v Speaker 3>I just remembered it's in my car. I have to

362
00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:26.480
<v Speaker 3>go get it.

363
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Are you serious to get a Father's Day present for me?

364
00:16:28.279 --> 00:16:29.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's in my car.

<v Speaker 1>You're not joking, are you? Okay? Well let's wait, Well
