She told me 25 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: that Santa wasn't a real person, but she still believes 26 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: in Santa because he is the magic of Christmas. She 27 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: told me there were time she didn't know how she'd 28 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: afford presents to put under the tree, but by some miracle, 29 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: it always worked out. I really liked that my mom 30 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: told me the truth but said she still believed in him. 31 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: It really made me love Christmas, but in a different way. 32 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: That's my two cents have a great day. 33 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 2: I like that.

It was like someone 38 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 3: was in line, like in a class in third grade, 39 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: and someone said it out loud, and I was like 40 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 3: what what? And I didn't believe him at first, And 41 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 3: then as a child does, I was snooping and I 42 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 3: saw presents in the basement that's from Santa. And then 43 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 3: when I woke up in the morning and there they were. 44 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 4: I was like, oh, exactly, you just kind of like 45 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 4: put two and two together. I don't feel like I 46 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 4: need anyone to tell me that Santa does not exist. 47 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 4: I just you find it out and then you decide 48 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 4: whether or not you want to be a buzzkill for 49 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 4: everybody else. And then if you're a real kid, definitely 50 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 4: wasn't going around telling me what. No, You're just like, oh, 51 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 4: that makes sense. But I still like Christmas, and I 52 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 4: do believe that Santa is the spirit of Christmas. 53 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: Santa was in the They did a Santa parade through 54 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: our neighborhood on Sunday night, and they had Santa and 55 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: sitting on top of a truck, and they had a 56 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: fire truck, and they had a bunch of kids and 57 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: some floats the neighborhood to kids to put together, neighborhood 58 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: to put together, and kids would run along and collect 59 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: your bag of donated groceries and food and that type 60 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: of thing, and and Santa was of course the last 61 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: entry in the float.

I don't necessarily know. 124 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 3: It was just because I was like naturally intelligent. If 125 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 3: we retain any of that, absolutely fucking not. 126 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 4: But mean as well, I'm like, well I could take 127 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 4: a test really well because I could cram. 128 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,919 Speaker 3: I know, that it's called like miss aphonia or something 129 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 3: and is an actual disorder. And I know that meat 130 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 3: Sauce on the Hall has it too, and everyone thinks 131 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 3: that meat Sauce is dumb, and he's actually extremely intelligent, 132 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 3: like because he plays. 133 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 2: The dope, it's very hard meat saush. 134 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 3: Kfan, but he really is actually quite smart.

We were doing a road trip 139 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 1: over Thanksgiving. And when you stop at a gas station, 140 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: what do you get snacks? What snack is very popular 141 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: at peanuts? Cornuts bingo. Corn nuts are the motherfucking loudest 142 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: food ever. So I'd eat them in the car and 143 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: she'd be like, how many more of them are you 144 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: going to have? And I'd be like what, ah, the chewing, 145 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: and then there were leftover. So I'm in the hotel 146 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: room or somewhere.

Next 151 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: one from thang Lee Rights in morning show. Seems like 152 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: this year there's not as many donations for Christmas Wish 153 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: based on what the show has been saying and doing. 154 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: I've been listening for many years now, and I think 155 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: almost every year there would be a day where a 156 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: company would match listener's donations up to a certain amount. 157 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,559 Speaker 1: For some reason, I keep thinking the matching donation today 158 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: was always after Christmas Wishes had started. Is there a 159 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: reason this match Day doesn't start earlier? This way there'd 160 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: be more funds for wishes from the beginning. Also, just 161 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,239 Speaker 1: wondering what's range for a year with the most money 162 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: donated versus the least. Oh, I don't know. Any other 163 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: insight would be interesting. Thank you, thank for asking. We 164 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: did start. We actually made a mistake and we should 165 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: have started match Day last week, but we got a 166 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: little bit confused. And so it is going on. By 167 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: the time you hear this, it'll be over, probably, But 168 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: it was Tuesday morning from six until ten, and it's 169 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: Treasure Island. 170 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 3: So and I will say that I know that person 171 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 3: said that it seems like we're behind on donations, but 172 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 3: I know so many people who wait until we do 173 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 3: Match Day to donate. Because my Mom had been texting 174 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 3: me last week. She's like, I've been waiting for match 175 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 3: day to donate, and I was like, yeah, we're doing 176 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 3: it Tuesday whatever. So I think people like really value 177 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 3: the match day so much and then we after today, 178 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 3: I think we will be doing pretty good with donations, 179 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 3: but we still have like twelve Christmas wishes to do, 180 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 3: so if you were thinking about donating, obviously, any amount 181 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 3: of money helps us out. 182 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: Okay, now this one, I may have read part of 183 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 1: it because it is a three parter topic email, So 184 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: if I read part of it, then I will just 185 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: let me know if I did, and we'll skip it. Okay, 186 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: here we go topic number one. I've noticed recently there's 187 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: been more of a push regarding non AI radio. I 188 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: think I heard Dave mention in a handful of times 189 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: over the past few weeks that iHeart doesn't have AI 190 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: radio DJs? Is that something other radio stations or companies 191 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: are using. Should we be worried that KWDB may switch? 192 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: KTBDB has been a part of my life for better 193 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: than twenty five years. I started listening in elementary school 194 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: and now look forward to beinging the podcast. I can't 195 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: imagine listening to AI instead of the lovely morning show crew. 196 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: You guys are local and relatable. I think that probably 197 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: some radio stations are using AI, but people hate it, 198 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: hate it, and the company has basically banned everything AI. 199 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: There were some that were like not DJ's but it 200 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: was like, you're listening to kd WB, the Twin Cities 201 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: number one hit music station. That would be done not 202 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: on our station, but for example, just one of those 203 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: simple things by AI. We don't do any of that. 204 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: And we used to have a song generator that would 205 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: create AI generated songs. We're not even allowed to do 206 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,839 Speaker 1: that anymore. Yeah, after I paid one hundred and thirty 207 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: dollars to subscribe. 208 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 2: To the service, you. 209 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 3: Want to subscribe from that or this is going to 210 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 3: be you're new whatever that you were subscribed to for years? 211 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 2: What was it called thing or whatever?

Immediately, we're canceling subscriptions. I was a 216 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: member of a gun range club where you go in 217 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 1: and you get like priority reservations and free targets and 218 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: things like that, and it comes up on the credit card. 219 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: Susan's like, why are you a member of this gun club? 220 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 2: You never go? And I said, you're right, so we 221 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: called and we canceled it. 222 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: Yeahow. 223 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: And there's other things like I have a big elliptical 224 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: at home. It's called an I Fit, And when you 225 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: buy an I Fit, you get like the first three 226 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: years of their subscription four it's included. But now the 227 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: if it's like upgrade to I Fit Pro for only 228 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: three hundred dollars, A fuck you.

Yeah, and it will do 231 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 1: like a peloton workout, like you'll go through the streets 232 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: of Greece or you know, around the Eiffel Tower or whatever. 233 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: I don't I watch TV.

No, that's a kind of thing. 237 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Joe Kenda Homicide Hunter is probably the best 238 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: show that I've watched since the twilight Zone. Wow, it's 239 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: so good. It's so good. But they're not new, so 240 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: I don't talk about it that much.

I consider gift giving my love language. 242 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: I spend a lot of time each year perfectly crafting 243 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: my gifts. I purchase similar to Jenny. I keep an 244 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: idea of a list of ideas on my phone, but 245 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 1: there are always those hard to buy for people.

I mentioned this on my radar a couple 252 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. Was the Sharper Image tire pump that 253 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: you keep in your car. Plugs into your charger and 254 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: you can charge. It comes with a battery and you 255 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: can charge up your flat or you can pump up 256 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: your flat tires. 257 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:36,719 Speaker 2: I have one. 258 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: I got one for Susan the other day, and they're dope. 259 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: They pump up pretty slowly because they're tiny little pumps inside, 260 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: but they work and they're much better than you know, 261 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: trying to find a tire pump or a gas station 262 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,079 Speaker 1: with a working tire pump. 263 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 4: I know that's always just I swear my tires. I 264 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 4: think I have a leak in one of them, if 265 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 4: not two of them, So I am constantly putting air 266 00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 4: into my tires. It's so annoying. 267 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: Well, especially this time of the year because everything freezes 268 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, your tires are low. Topic number three, 269 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: Jenny and Vonn had asked for some general ideas for 270 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: Christmas gifts, especially experiences.

Do you own 286 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: a meat thermometer anyone? 287 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 3: I got one thinking I would use it all the 288 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 3: time because I didn't think I was cooking chicken. Right, 289 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 3: I've never used it once. I just fucking realized what 290 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: my heart says. 291 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: Well, there's two kinds. There's the analog, which is like 292 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: it's got a dial on it and you stab it 293 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: in and you don't need a battery.

They compile a great list for men, women, teens, kids, 318 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: and their lists are also frequently based on price points. 319 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: Jenny also mentioned she loves Patina and that story is 320 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: so fun. What is Patina not familiar? 321 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 3: Patina is like a boutique little store. There's multiple locations 322 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 3: around the cities and I'm pretty sure it's just local 323 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 3: to the Twin Cities, but it basically has like the 324 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 3: most it's just very gifty, like you could find fun 325 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 3: mugs or really cute candles or like decor.

I mean, 327 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 3: I literally just spent an hour there on Sunday with 328 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 3: the person I'm seeing, and he found a presence for 329 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 3: like five of his nieces and nephews while we were there. 330 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 3: So it's just the most random shit, Like I don't 331 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 3: even know how to describe it.

I've never been to Patina, 337 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: but apparently there's one in the shops at Arbor Lakes. 338 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: If you're looking for a fun and unique experience, highly 339 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: recommend all Factory Sense Studio in Maple Grow as well. 340 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: You can create your very own candles, selecting from dozens 341 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: of cents. It's made on site and usually you can 342 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: stop buying pick it up after a few hours, enough 343 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: time for more shopping and a bite to eat. Hopefully 344 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: these ideas are helpful. Merry Christmas Day, Bailey, Jenny, and 345 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: vont Thank you. Aaron appreciate that, and I may have 346 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: time for one more. Kyle writes in I've been listening 347 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: to Minnesota Goodbye and that noticed that before the actual 348 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: content starts, I'm subjected to three, yes, three minutes of ads, 349 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: plus additional ads right in the middle of the podcast. Sometimes. 350 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: I know you guys have no control over the podcast ads, 351 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: but seriously, iHeart, what the actual fuck. I think a 352 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: little posse of Juanita Harrison Smith from the Vikings and Jenny, 353 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: because she's strong like Paul Bunyan, could march to HQ 354 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: and start wrecking shit till iHeart reduces the amount of 355 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: podcast ads. That'd be a good bit. Yes, I know 356 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: ads are essential because of money, stuff and all that, 357 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 1: but seriously, this shit pisses me the fuck off. Shout 358 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: out again to Juanita, thank you friends, and stay warm 359 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: from Kyle. You know what's funny is I was listening 360 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: to an iHeart station last night in Detroit and because 361 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 1: I just want to see what they were doing, and 362 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: you know, see if I pick up any tips or whatever. 363 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: We don't steal bits from anybody, but I wanted to 364 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 1: see how they did certain things. And I listened to 365 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: their podcast, same thing, three minutes of ads before their 366 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: podcast started. And I know people have complained about our 367 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: podcast in the past, like we'll just be talking, yeah, 368 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: and it'll interrupt us and play an ad. No structure, 369 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: no sense to it at all. And I heard the 370 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: same thing on this station in Detroit. 371 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 4: Oh well, dang. 372 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: So I think that as much as they push the 373 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app, there's still I don't know, somebody who's trying 374 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: to figure out the bugs or what. Can you, by 375 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: any chance to wrap up, Jenny, you talked about the 376 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: guy you're seeing. Can you tell the story about the 377 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: swingers club or no? 378 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 2: If no, that's. 379 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 3: Fine, I mean I think it'll be fine. Basically the 380 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 3: person I'm seeing. And I don't know when this happened 381 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 3: because this is a long time ago, but someone in 382 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 3: his neighborhood was a swinger and he was a single 383 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 3: man and a couple, you know, they were at swingers 384 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 3: parties whatever. Hit it off with one of the women 385 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 3: and him and that woman had like a relationship outside 386 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 3: of the swingers parties, while that woman's husband was not 387 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 3: okay with that. And this is a fucked up story. 388 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 3: He went and shot the guy, the single guy, and 389 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 3: then he went home and killed his wife and himself 390 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 3: for all of it. So it's it was a very 391 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 3: messy story. 392 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 2: Wow, there is a story. 393 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: There was a kid that was in my weblow's den 394 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: when I was a kid, and his name was Alan, 395 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: And I remember Alan from being a kid, but not 396 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: really well, but I remember him and I ran into 397 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: him in the bar in Black Forest, Colorado, because whenever 398 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,360 Speaker 1: I go to that bar, I almost always see somebody 399 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 1: that I knew from when I grew up there. And 400 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: this guy, Alan was caught in bed with another man's 401 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: wife and he got shot and he died.
