1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: Alrighty, here we go with the Minnesota Goodbye Friday Day edition, 2 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: and it looks like today is going to be a 3 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,319 Speaker 1: lot of emails, which I love. I always love to 4 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: see what you're thinking of, and let's see what we got. Hello, Dave, 5 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: Jenny Bay Levant. This is from Anders First. I'm sure 6 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: you will read this in the morning. So Happy Friday. 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: My wife and I have today Friday off for work 8 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: of work for her twenty ninth birthday. Wondering if you 9 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: can give her a shout out. Her name is Alexandria. 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: Absolutely so happy twenty ninth birthday, Alexandria. Second, I listened 11 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: to the clarifying cows Ass episode from yesterday. Love the 12 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 1: title Bailey and the part where you're discussing young men 13 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: and Professor G's new book. As a thirty year old man, 14 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: I somewhat resonate with the loneliness feeling mostly stemming from 15 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: attempts to connect with other men around me on a 16 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: deeper level but getting mostly brushed off. I've got two 17 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: maybe three guy friends who actually listen to who I 18 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: feel actually listen when there's a serious topic at hand, 19 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: which is sad and as a man, I wish men 20 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: felt more comfortable talking to each other. But I think 21 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: for the young men who are coming into adulthood now, 22 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: for the last five years, a lot of them are 23 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: confused about their plays in this world. Society does. Societal 24 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: dynamics are changing, and for some reason, young men are 25 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: having perhaps the toughest time. Maybe not, I could be wrong. 26 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: I guess Scott Galloway's book may help shine some light 27 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: on the topic. Anyway, I wanted to share my thoughts 28 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: and thank you for discussing it. I think we need 29 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: to bring up the fact that men are struggling and 30 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: we need each other. So I think that's true, and 31 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: I think that, yeah, I think it's true. And I 32 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: worry about my boy Carson because I don't he's so quiet. 33 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: I never know exactly what he's thinking or worried about. 34 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: But I think he has buddies that he can talk to, 35 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like if something's going wrong, 36 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: I hope he has somebody to talk to. 37 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 2: Which I think I like about what Anders said is 38 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: that we need each other. And I think men need 39 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: each other like they need each other men, you know, 40 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: And I think that's where they could have, you know, 41 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 2: better relationships with other guys, so you know, talk about 42 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: your feelings because it's not gay to talk about your 43 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:10,959 Speaker 2: feelings or whatever. 44 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: Like I get to talk about my feeling I have 45 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 1: one friend that I really talk about my feelings, whether 46 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: that's Curtis, and Curtis is gay, and I think that 47 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: makes him softer, if that's the right word for it. 48 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: So I can talk about, you know, whatever's going on 49 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: that's troubling me or whatever. And he's a great listener 50 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: to the point where it's almost flawed. He is like 51 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: an interviewer. So how is that going with Alison? 52 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 3: Does he work in like therapy? 53 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 1: No, he and I told him one time, I said, 54 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: you should be a therapist. He works in design. He 55 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: works in it's a little interesting what he does. He 56 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,519 Speaker 1: is a buyer and a designer. So he goes to 57 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: shows and he'll set up a display for a company 58 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: that sells things, seasonal things, for example. So he'll go 59 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: to an empty space and he'll set up an entire 60 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: display of Christmas things, because there's an art to setting 61 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: up a display. Then buyers retailers will come by and 62 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: look at it and go, oh, those little lamps that 63 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: look like a Christmas tree. I want to order fifty 64 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: of those for my shop in shockapie type of thing. Okay, 65 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: but he's like nationwide, he goes to Atlanta. 66 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: What nothing about therapy? 67 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: Then nothing about therapy now so they want a staff 68 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: writers sticker and secretary Brie has got your email and 69 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: a mail and we're gonna send that over. 70 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: To you, Nance Anders and happy birthday to your wife. 71 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: Very cool. 72 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 3: I your friends, Anders, ask them how they are? 73 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: Well, I think that's the thing he said he does, 74 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: but again gets brushed off, like, you know, if somebody 75 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,119 Speaker 1: I don't know, if somebody came to me is like, man, 76 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: I'm just really having trouble, you know, with my marriage, 77 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: and you know, I mean I'd be like, oh. 78 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 3: That's what's a bummer to me. 79 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: And that's what I've seen with like people responding to 80 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: that Galloway guy. Like, I think he makes good points, 81 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 2: but I do think he's saying, like, hey, in order 82 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: to talk about your feeling, is like you kind of 83 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: need a wife or a girlfriend to talk about those 84 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 2: things too, and you don't. You just need friends who 85 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: will be able to talk to you about it or 86 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 2: willing to talk to you about it. 87 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 4: I think it's just the fact though that like men 88 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 4: were not taught to be vulnerable. Yeah, and that's what 89 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 4: the struggle is is, like you see it as such 90 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 4: a weakness, so you're not willing to be vulnerable with 91 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 4: your friends. 92 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 5: And I just I don't know. 93 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 4: I mean, I can speak as a woman, but let 94 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 4: me tell you, when people are vulnerable to me in relationships, 95 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 4: it makes me feel so much closer to them. And 96 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 4: I know that it's different like manned Man, I get that, 97 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 4: but I just wish there wasn't this stigma. 98 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: As a guy. I will say, it's that it's not 99 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: that we don't want a guy to talk to. There 100 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: just really is and always a guy to talk to. 101 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: My best friend Mike or Brintley was my guy to 102 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: talk to. And that's one of the reasons I miss 103 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: Brintley because I could talk to that guy about a 104 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: anything and we would like, you know, kid around and 105 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,119 Speaker 1: like he was just guy that you could do anything, 106 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: and he would laugh. Like I remember we were driving 107 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: in his truck one time and he was always very 108 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: proud of his hair and I'm like, you have the 109 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: prettiest hair. Stop it you have no seriously, can I 110 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,239 Speaker 1: touch it? I don't care. Go and I would actually 111 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: play with his hair to make him uncomfortable, and I 112 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: think he kind of liked it that it was very gay. 113 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: It was very gay, but we were no, it was 114 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: very gay, but we were pretending. There was no like 115 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: testing the waters. It wasn't like, well, now can I 116 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: play with your nipples? You know, look you're. 117 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 3: Tony where he's like, is it gay that I do 118 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 3: this with my friend? It's gay? 119 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 5: Yeah? 120 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 2: You know. 121 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: See, if I would have played with his nipples, I'd 122 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: be like, look at how gay you are. You're letting 123 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 1: me play with your nipples. You're gay. I could probably 124 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: take my pants off because you're so gay. You're gay, 125 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: all right? Next one, Kaylee writes in Longtime No Talk 126 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: life has been lifing, but I'm happy to be throwing 127 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: my two cents in again, Jenny. I was cracking up 128 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: when you were stirring the pot about people having both 129 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: a bridal shower and a bachelorette party, because honestly, you're 130 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: not wrong. And lately I've been noticing the same thing 131 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: with baby celebrations. There's a gender reveal, a diaper party, 132 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: and a baby shower. Like we're one onesie away from 133 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: a full blown festival, totally overwhelming. But hey, I guess 134 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: if it makes them happy, good for them. Also, sorry, 135 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: you're feeling sore, but get it girl. Dave says that 136 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: last part in the Alison voice for full effect. Please 137 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: and thanks. Okay in the Allison voice, Oh my god, dad, 138 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: Sorry we're feeling sore, but get it girl. 139 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 5: Yes, I will. No, I won't. Honestly, I don't want, 140 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 5: ever want to feel this pain again. 141 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: You will, though, I hope so, Bailey. I have been 142 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: thinking about what you said about not knowing if you're 143 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: actually having a good time on dates or you're just 144 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: the kind of person that people naturally have fun around. 145 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: As your resident gen Z therapist, let me say, being 146 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: the reason someone has a good time is kind of 147 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: the whole point. You're not accidentally enjoyable. You are enjoyable. 148 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: I would agree with that one. That's part of what 149 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: makes you you. And you're right one date isn't enough 150 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: for a long term verdict, but sometimes I think people 151 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: just need a second lap to show they can keep up. 152 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: You got this, girly, I think that's true. I think 153 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: there are people you remind me of, like Steve in 154 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: a way and extreme Jamie in a way. You're always chatty, 155 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: You're always comfortable to be around, and it's like you're 156 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: easy to talk to. Like when Jamie, I don't want 157 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: to be, you know, like weird. But when Jamie, who 158 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: used to work here years ago, when he would come 159 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: to work, he lit up the room when he came in. 160 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: He brought an energy with him that was like, hey, guys, Hey, 161 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: how's it going. He was always happy.

Next one. Lastly, Dave Bailey's impression of 203 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: you licking your lips on Instagram had me absolutely crying 204 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: laughing because I'm not gonna lie. It was painfully accurate. 205 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: Now I can see it when I watch YouTube live 206 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: and I kind of hate that for me. Lmaoh, all jokes, Dave, 207 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: Do I lick my lips a lot? 208 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 3: Yes? 209 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 1: I don't realize that at all. 210 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, You're not like you don't lick your lips. You 211 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: just like put your tongue down in the bottom, in 212 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 2: your bottom lip. Yep, that's what you do.

I can't see your face most 218 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 4: of the time, so I think Bailey gets the the 219 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 4: only thing I see all the time, your face weird. 220 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: But. 221 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: Truly was not aware of that. I'm not going to 222 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: try to change though. 223 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: No. 224 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: Next one, Tara writes in longtime Listener, first time writer here, 225 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: thanks for all you do. I look forward to listening 226 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: to the each morning on my commute to work, and 227 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: now in the afternoons through your podcast. My question is 228 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: for Dave and requires you to think back to the 229 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: early two thousands, specifically between two thousand and one and 230 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: two thousand and three. At the time, I was in 231 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,599 Speaker 1: junior high and your morning show was just a was 232 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: a part of my daily getting ready routine. At some 233 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: point in that timeframe, the radio station started dropping hints 234 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: or ads that the show might be going off the air, 235 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: pulling on my young heartstrings. It even got to a 236 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: point where the station had a countdown to some sort 237 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: of I have a stating news prompting me to fake 238 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 1: being sick so I could stay home and hear what 239 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: was happening and not miss out on this announcement. Long 240 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: story short, your show obviously did not get canceled, and 241 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 1: the news ended up being some other announcement related to 242 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: an event like a concert or whatever. But my young 243 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: globle self could not bear to miss it. Wondering, Dave, 244 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: if you remember this whole bit, because whoever was in 245 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: your PR marketing department did a fantastic job grabbing me 246 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: as a listener. If you have any details remember this, 247 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: it'd be fun to hear it. Thanks for all you 248 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: do for Tara, Well, Tara, thank you for listening all 249 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: this time, and thanks for writing in. I don't remember 250 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: specifically that one, but there was one where it's like 251 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: KATWB is turning off the power, KATWB is shutting out 252 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: after thirty years, KATWB is finally turning off the power, 253 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: and people thought that meant, oh, we're signing off, and 254 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: it was something like we're going to pay your electric 255 00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: bills something stupid like that. But I don't remember another one, 256 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: and that could be the one you're talking about. It 257 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: feels like the right timeframe. Did you say it was 258 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: two thousand and one to two thousand and three, okay, 259 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: And that would definitely fit the right time frame for that, 260 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna guess that's probably what it was. 261 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 4: When I remember because we had a different boss at 262 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 4: the time. We didn't have Rich and I remember I 263 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 4: was working at City ninety seven and he came in 264 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 4: and he was trying to teach me radio stuff because 265 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 4: I was very new, and he played me this promo 266 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 4: thing and it was like the Dave Ryan Show is leaving, 267 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 4: and I was like, oh, I remember that one. 268 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 5: And that was to promote you guys going to Mexico. 269 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 3: Yes, I reminded. 270 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 5: He was like, does that intrigue you? 271 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 4: And so you're just kind of teaching me what I 272 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 4: like what we do in radio to get people hooked 273 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 4: and wanting to listen and stuff, and it did. I 274 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 4: was like, new to radio, So I was like, what 275 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 4: does that mean of it where they goes? 276 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 3: Yes, I remember that one very specifically. 277 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: We were going to do something, but we don't have 278 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: the budget for it. Dave Ryan needs to leave and 279 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: put up billboards. Dave Ryan needs to leave. Dave Ryan 280 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: needs to go and make people go like, oh my god, 281 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: oh there are people that don't like Dave and yeah, 282 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: Dave Ryan needs to go, and then people would talk 283 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: about it, and then the the reveal on the billboard, 284 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: Dave Ryan needs to go to the Bahamas and you're 285 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: invited to go to So if that ever happens and 286 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: you see a billboard up that says Dave Ryan needs 287 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 1: to go, no, it's a it's a promo. We were 288 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: gonna do one, remember this one. And I don't think 289 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: you were here, but maybe you were. I think maybe 290 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: you were. We were going to do something blacker, bigger, better, 291 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: blacker is that what it was, And we were going 292 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: to put up billboards that said bitter bit, bigger, better blacker, 293 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: and then we really I was going to spend my 294 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 1: own money putting these up because it would make people talk. 295 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: But then vont rean it by some of his family 296 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,319 Speaker 1: and they said I kind of rubbed him the wrong way, 297 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: and we're like, well, the last thing we want to 298 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: do is piss off the black community or people who 299 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: would be pissed whatever. So we said, nah, sounded like 300 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: a good idea. It would definitely get attention, but. 301 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 3: Probably not the good people. 302 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 4: Also spilled the beans too early because you were going 303 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 4: to do it as like a surprise, and then you 304 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 4: started talking about it on the show right away and 305 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 4: you're like, I have this new. 306 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 5: Idea and we were like, no, shut up, we were 307 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 5: gonna maybe do this as a billboard.

Hello, 340 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: morning show. A couple of quick things I thought of 341 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: while listening talking about listening to audiobooks rather than reading sometime. 342 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: Something people often forget is the majority of humans existence 343 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: there there were no books. All stories, events, and history 344 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: were shared through the spoken word, same as audio books. 345 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: But I don't shame anybody who listens to an audiobook. 346 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: I think there's a different experience of cuddling up in 347 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: you know, with a cat on your lap and reading 348 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: a book, yeah, or listening to an audiobook on your 349 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: walk or in your car.

You're hearing 350 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: stories and learning whatever. 351 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 5: Faily really quickly, what can you get? 352 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 4: You can get something from the library that's digital, right, yeah, 353 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 4: so you can read. 354 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 2: The app is called Libby, and that's it's a library app. 355 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: So all you need is a library card and you 356 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 2: just connect it to the app and then you can 357 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 2: like borrow either like physical books quote unquote that are 358 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 2: on your phone or audio books. 359 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 5: And then okay, can you do like Kindle stuff with it, 360 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 5: do you know? 361 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 3: Yeah? 362 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 2: So I mean I don't have a Kindle, yeah, but 363 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 2: like I think you can download the Libby app to 364 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 2: your Kindle. 365 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 4: And just trying to figure out what to ask for 366 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 4: for Christmas from Santa.

She read Charlotte's Web to our class 411 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 1: in her little New Jerseyish accent, and she took us 412 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: to the Chayenne Mountain Zoo and the Pioneer Museum, and 413 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: it was just if field trips were what was the 414 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: best field trip? 415 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 2: Jo? 416 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 4: Mine was always town to Milwaukee. They had the Mitchell 417 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 4: Park domes and so it was kind of like what 418 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 4: the arboretum is and stuff like that. We're just domes 419 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 4: with flowers and stuff. 420 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: And but you loved it, loved it. Yeah. 421 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 2: I loved the Oliver Kelly Farm so much so I 422 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 2: started working there. That's fibulars. And then there was this 423 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 2: giant like wooden playground. I don't remember where it was, 424 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 2: but it was huge, a huge playground that looked like 425 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 2: a castle. And we would go there all the time. 426 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: I don't know why, but that was a field. 427 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 3: Trip for us. It's going to this giant wooden playground. 428 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 3: It was dope. 429 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that's cool when you're a little kid. 430 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 3: It was so cool. It had a big metal slide. Oh, 431 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 3: it was dope. 432 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: We went in high school to a recording studio in Denver, 433 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: and I still remember hearing. This is the only thing 434 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: I remember about it. None of the walls or even 435 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 1: the floor in the ceiling were perpendicular to each other, 436 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: because if they were, the echo would be wrong. Yeah, 437 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: so in a recording studio the ceiling and the floor 438 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: are not perpendicular or any of the walls, and they 439 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: tend to like bounce the sound into a corner. That's 440 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: all the time we have. Running out of time countdown 441 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: is on. Send your emails.
