Usually most people play doubles 147 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 5: with pickleball. It's kind of rare that there's singles, but whatever. 148 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 5: But yeah, so it's two against two, and yeah, it's 149 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 5: just it's crazy, it's intense. It's it really looks like 150 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 5: a way harder workout than pickleball.

And 201 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 5: then I felt like an asshole. But anyways, I didn't 202 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 5: know how intense pneumonia was. 203 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: I had pneumonia when I was in ninth grade. I 204 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 1: got sick for I missed school for three weeks. I 205 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: had pneumonia and scarletina, which I still don't know what 206 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: it is, but it felt like it was awful, and 207 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 1: I remember my mom told me later she thought they 208 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: were going to lose me. And I didn't remember being 209 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: that sick, but I do remember, because there's kind of 210 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: different kinds of sick. There's the sick when you sit 211 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: on the couch and you watch Prices right, and you're 212 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: in your bathrobe and your pj's yeah, and you get 213 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 1: chicken soup and you know you're really you don't feel 214 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: good enough to go to school. I was so sick 215 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: that I laid in bed, I didn't watch TV. I 216 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: laid in bed for about probably a week or so, 217 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: but I missed school for three weeks, and I remember 218 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,839 Speaker 1: my dad came in one night because I kept throwing up, 219 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: and he said, do you want to go to the 220 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: hospital and I said no, and he got annoyed and 221 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: he said, well, you're not getting any better here, and 222 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: I remember that. So they dragged me the hospital and 223 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: it was the Air Force hospital and they didn't have 224 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: room to put me in the hospital. And my dad 225 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: was pissed because you know, he was like a you know, 226 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: a moderately powerful officer, but he didn't have the juice 227 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: to get me into the hospital. So they brought me 228 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 1: back home. And I did get better, but I was pneumonia. 229 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 1: So that was my point. Pneumonia, and it's basically you're 230 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: and when you're getting better, you cough up things that 231 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: look like green sponges grow. And it was awful, yeah, 232 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: because it's your lungs clearing out. And here's a little 233 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,719 Speaker 1: ninth grade me, deathly sick, laying in bed. Yeah. 234 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 4: I feel like every time we want to get sick 235 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 4: in the way that you just lay on the couch 236 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 4: and eat soup and watch TV, and that's like, oh wow, 237 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 4: what I would give for one of those chill sick days. 238 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 4: But it's always like nope, I'm in bed and I 239 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 4: can't move and I if I moan, I'll feel a 240 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,719 Speaker 4: little bit better, So I'll just layter and go. 241 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: Huh isn't that true? If you moan, it's like a release, 242 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: you feel better. 243 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 4: I literally laid in, Ben just went. 244 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 2: It was awful. 245 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: No, that is awful.

The main reason I wanted to 292 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: write in is because I want to say I would 293 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: pay one hundred dollars for Vont to shave all his 294 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: facial hair. It's been getting out of control as long 295 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: as he's been on the show, and I can't hold 296 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: back anymore. This is not an attack, more of a 297 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: realization that he's part of a group of men that 298 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: just don't look good with facial hair. Now he does 299 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: ask for a staff writer stickery, saying that it's a 300 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: guy yeah Marco. 301 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 5: But at the same time, I feel like Vont looks 302 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 5: like a tiny little child. 303 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 4: When he'sace yeah facial hair. 304 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 5: He looks so. 305 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 4: Young I'm sure he would take one hundred dollarson and 306 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 4: shave it off. 307 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, he definitely probably would.

I think that Carson grows a 311 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: beard and facial hair because he thinks it makes him 312 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: look older, because Carson looks fifteen without his facial hair. 313 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, he does look young, but so does Yeah, vont 314 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 4: does have kind of a a child like bobblehead. 315 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: If he didn't have fair child like bobblehead.

Whereas I will 353 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 5: never forget when I was on a path around the 354 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 5: lakes one time and I was rollerblading, but I was 355 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 5: like on the left side because there was a ton 356 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 5: of cracks on the right, and a biker like berated 357 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 5: me for being on the left side as he was 358 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:09,880 Speaker 5: trying to get past, and I didn't hear them because 359 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 5: I had headphones in, and I remember that haunted me 360 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 5: all day.

So you know, everybody loves their 372 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: air pods and their earbuds or whatever, but I don't 373 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: dislike mine. I just prefer this this speaker, and I 374 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: canna recommend it. It is called the Knox Gear in 375 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: Ox gea R Speaker, and there's different price points.

Let's see what else we got here. This 385 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: is a long email, and I appreciate every bit of 386 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:43,719 Speaker 1: it from Christopher. He is basically writing in about ads 387 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: on the podcast. Here's one. The Dave Ryan podcast episode 388 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 1: from twelve to fifteen had fourteen minutes and five seconds 389 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: of ads. Now that is on the Minnesota Goodbye fourteen 390 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: minutes and five seconds of ads. Is that even possible? 391 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: He said? That was thirty eight point two seven percent 392 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: of your podcast was ads. I'm annoyed. I'm angered about 393 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: the recent changes with the ad breaks. I admittedly only 394 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 1: listened to Apple podcasts, but prior to the recent changes, 395 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: and like I said, it goes on for quite a while. 396 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: The ad breaks have been inserted to the podcast as well. 397 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: So not only is it three minutes before and three 398 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: minutes after, but there are three minutes in the middle 399 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: of the podcast, and the volume is always way off. 400 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 1: The ads are out of control. I don't I know 401 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: you don't have anything to do with it, but I 402 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: wanted to pass this along. Too many ads it makes 403 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 1: it difficult to enjoy the podcast while working or doing 404 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: anything when I'm not holding my phone, because when you 405 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: got your phone in your hand, you use the skip button. 406 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 5: Right. 407 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: Anyway, thanks for doing what you do. Despite the ads, 408 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: I still laugh every time I listen Dart Dart lick 409 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: lick Right. Your seventh listener, Chris, formerly from Miami but 410 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: now in Chicago. 411 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I I don't have any any like power over 412 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 4: the ads whatsoever, so I know they're annoying. But now 413 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 4: with our new like podcast uploader thing, I cannot publish 414 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 4: any podcast if I don't put an ad in it, 415 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,959 Speaker 4: So it's either they have the fourteen minutes of ads 416 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 4: or they're not uploaded. Like that's kind of that's all 417 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 4: I have a say in. 418 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: It is frustrating. 419 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 4: I can't I can't adjust the volume. I can't adjust anything. 420 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: Well, I will adjust the volume of one Nita this time. 421 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: But that is all the time we have for the 422 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: Minnesota Goodbye. We'll do one more episode Toosday and then 423 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: that's it. We'll have to hold us over because we 424 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: love doing the Minnesota Goodbye and we appreciate you so much. 425 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: It is such a fun thing to do. Because we 426 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: prepare the show on the radio. We always know what's 427 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 1: coming up.
