1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,239 Speaker 1: I went through your last night, cleaned out the email 2 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: box of the Minnesota Goodbye, and found some old emails. 3 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: We're gonna go way way back and look at some 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,399 Speaker 1: of the old emails that we did not get to. 5 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 1: For example, from July seventh, Wow, you were talking about 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 1: good and bad waiter customer stories, and this is Ashley saying, 7 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,080 Speaker 1: I want to share one years ago pre COVID, I 8 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: was the sales manager at a convention center that was 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: also a wedding venue. Table of about four or five 10 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: people at least in their mid sixties were building the 11 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: pyramid of their empty plastic beer cups. One of my 12 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 1: banquet staff members walked up at the table and started 13 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,199 Speaker 1: clearing off the table. One of the drunk old hags 14 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: had the audacity to grab my server's wrists and said, 15 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: don't take down that pyramid. We've been working really hard 16 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: on it. My server informed me the situation. I was 17 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: fuming nobody puts their hands on my staff. I walked 18 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: over the table explained putting hands on my staff or 19 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: being rude was unacceptable, and if it happened again, you're 20 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: gonna leave. I told the banquet staff to avoid that table. 21 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 1: I also stationed one person from security to watch over 22 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: the guests at that table and to radio me the 23 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: second they left the table unattended. I got a call 24 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: from security that everybody at the table went up to 25 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 1: the bar for another round. It's my time to strike, 26 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: Like I was in a national cup stacking competition. I 27 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,479 Speaker 1: took down their massive pyramid of beer cups and had 28 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: the table cleared in seconds and walked out with a 29 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: stack of cups. Man, I do wish I had eyes 30 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: in the back of my head because the security guard 31 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: said the look on their faces when they noticed their 32 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: pyramid what's gone, was priceless. I was absolutely shocked to 33 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: their behavior. A beer pyramid is something we see guys 34 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: in their early twenties doing, not retirees. All right, have 35 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: a great day, guys from Ashley. 36 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 2: Wow. 37 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's kinda harmless unless they 38 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: were like drunk and you know, annoying. Let them make 39 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: their beer pyramid. 40 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 3: Mean, But like how classy was the venue? 41 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 2: I don't know. 42 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 3: I think it depends on I think there are some 43 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 3: situations that maybe we just don't fully understand. 44 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: Baby, all right, another one, this goes to July sixteenth. 45 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: My random topic from Kendre is running slash walking. I 46 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: need advice. What kind of shoes do you recommend? I 47 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: would go down to a dedicated athletic foot store. I'm 48 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: not going to say one of the big box stores 49 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,359 Speaker 1: in the mall because I went to a big box 50 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 1: store in the mall and they were, you know, seemingly helpful, 51 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: but I did not get the best shoes. And they'll 52 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: be like, oh, yeah, this one's great. So if you 53 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: go to a dedicated athletic foot store, like and I 54 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: can't think of one, is marathon sports still around? 55 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 2: Maybe Mill City running? 56 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: Okay? 57 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 3: One that like we'll see what kind of arch you 58 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: have in your foot and stuff like that you're with 59 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 3: and all that stuff. 60 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, they have you stand the good ones have you 61 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: stand on like a little it looks like a mat 62 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: that will you know, map your foot and they'll be like, oh, 63 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: you have a small art, you have no art.

Oh, and 65 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: if you're serious about it, I mean, walking is probably 66 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: one thing. Running is definitely something you should invest in. 67 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: Good shoes. I went to Walmart one time because I 68 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: was on vacation and got a six dollars pair of 69 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: running shoes from Walmart. Ran ten miles in them, and 70 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: I could definitely feel the difference tear them away. 71 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, truly. 72 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 4: I've had cheap shoes before too, which and I go 73 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 4: on a lot of walks, so I started investing in 74 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 4: nice shoes changes the whole thing. 75 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: You got hokahs, right, and I do have hokahs. 76 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:30,839 Speaker 1: Yeah. 77 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 4: I got mine at Peterson's Shoes and a Noka. It's 78 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 4: I don't know if they like map your foot kind 79 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 4: of thing, but the people actually know what they're talking 80 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 4: about there, which is nice. 81 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 3: Okay. 82 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. Also, I live in southern Minnesota. I hate being 83 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: stuck on the treadmill all winter, so when I can 84 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: get outside, it's glorious. However, do you know what's the 85 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: safest way to run outside on country roads against traffic 86 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: or with it no trails around here unless I'm driving 87 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: to the next county, I would say definitely always run 88 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: against trap That way, you can see if a car 89 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: is coming, especially with people texting and driving, you can 90 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: see if they're like, you know, moving over for you. 91 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: If they're not moving over, you can hop into the 92 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: ditch or run off the side of the road or whatever. 93 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: So I would say, always run with the traffic, against 94 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: the traffic, yeah, yes, And then for safety tips vest 95 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: and in protective measures the I would say, yeah, I 96 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: mean sure you'd wear an orange or a yellow vest. Sure, 97 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: why not? Why not? It doesn't hurt, or just a 98 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: shirt that's bright orange or bright yellow. 99 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 3: I mean I would say that, like sometimes if it's 100 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 3: dark though, you do need the reflective gear. So if 101 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 3: you are running crue and a headline, I think I 102 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 3: don't know. I had a really awkward situation last spring 103 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 3: when it was dark out and a guy like came 104 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 3: at me and yelled at me because I did not 105 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 3: see him. And I'd pulled into a caribou parking lot 106 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 3: right at that intersection and I almost hit him, and 107 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 3: he was wearing a bright shirt, but it was it 108 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 3: was dark out and it wasn't reflected. 109 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I didn't see him. 110 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: Still, and I apologize, but this man was fucking angriest 111 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 3: hell at me, and I'm sorry, like I didn't see you. 112 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: She finishes my saying, thanks time, thanks for taking time 113 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: to read this, Love you guys, and Bernie calling the 114 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: show bit top tier entertainment. 115 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 4: Thank you so much, appreciate you'd appreciate it. 116 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: Thank you, Kendra. Next one, this one says, I've been 117 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: listening to the Minnesota Goodbye and I've always wanted to 118 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: write in. What caught my attention was all the women 119 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: named Sarah writing in I'm an eighties baby. Grew up 120 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: with several other Sarah's in my grade. I feel this 121 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: is largely due to popular songs Sarah Smile, Starship Song Sarahrah, 122 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: and Fleetwood Mac Sarah. It's interesting to look at how 123 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: music has influenced people's lives, or how many memories are 124 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: associated with music. I could remember singing Queens, we Will 125 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: Rock You in the truck with my dad clapping along, 126 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: listening to Billy Joel's cassette tape Stormfront over and over 127 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: in the car with my mom, listening to Boys to 128 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: Men and Spice Girls from my boombox with my friends outside, 129 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: buying my first CD Shanaia Twains Come On over, and 130 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: listening to CDs over and over again in my room. 131 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: There are so many more. I have two older stepdaughters 132 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: who were in high school, and they could care less 133 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: about music. They don't listen to music in their rooms. 134 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: They don't talk about music, and if I asked them 135 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: who's their current favorite artist, they wouldn't be able to answer. 136 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: I was talking to a coworker about this. She feels 137 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,799 Speaker 1: the same way about her too high school age girls. 138 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: Why do you think this is? She feels it's due 139 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: to how disposable music is now. You can easily access 140 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: and then dump music, so you don't have a commitment 141 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: to your whatever album you're Shanaia Twain CD. 142 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 143 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 3: Also to add on to that, I feel like we'll 144 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 3: start playing a song on the radio and we won't 145 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 3: know the artists, we won't know the song name or anything, 146 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 3: but we start hearing it and we realize it's like 147 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: a trending song on social media. So maybe that's something too, 148 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 3: where it's like, Oh, these kids might know the trending 149 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 3: song they're hearing, but they don't know the artists, they 150 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 3: don't know the name of the song. Yeah, they just 151 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 3: like the song and they hear and they're like, oh, 152 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 3: that's a cute song with this trend. 153 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm hoping to teach my younger daughters more about music. 154 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: I feel I have so many core memories associated to music. 155 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: It has helped me through some challenging times huge, thank 156 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: you for the four of you for lifting my spirits daily. 157 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: I'm a social worker and like to listen to the 158 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: Minnesota Goodbye on my way home to de stress. I 159 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 1: appreciate all of you. Dart Lick from a nineteen eighties Sarah. 160 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 2: I just checked in my phone. 161 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 4: I have six Sarah's just in my phone and really 162 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 4: best friends Sarah. 163 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: I definitely went to school with a lot of Sarah's 164 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 3: I don't have. I'll let me say, okay, because I 165 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 3: feel like. 166 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 4: If of all the names, it's Sarah Sarah, like Sarah, Katie, Andy, 167 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 4: and Ryan are the ones that I have the most of. 168 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 2: I think, no four, I. 169 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: Have two to Sarah to Sarah, Yeah, and I don't 170 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: recognize either of their names.

Here's 171 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: a note one listening Monday morning to the show when 172 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: the babysitter came on and wondered why the family she 173 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: sat for ghosted her. Then she revealed that she drank 174 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: their wine and took the bottle with her. I sensed 175 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: that you were all trying to see her point of 176 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: view and not completely roast on the air. But I 177 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: gotta know what did you really think? Because come on, 178 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be calling a sitter back either if I 179 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: came home and saw an entire bottle of wine and disappeared. 180 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: I was on her side until that review reveal she 181 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: was playing plurretty loose and wild with their invitation to 182 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: quote help herself. I think we were pretty honest about it. 183 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: I do, if you didn't hear it. She was a 184 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 1: babysitter and they said help yourself to anything. She was 185 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 1: legal age. She had a bottle of wine. She opened it, 186 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: and then she didn't want them to know that she 187 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: had a bottle of wine, so she took it with 188 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 1: and she's worried they found out or maybe sorry drinking 189 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: wine on it? And what about the glass unless she 190 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: chugged it right out of the bottle, you know, the 191 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: glass ends up in the sink. I guess, sir, Well, 192 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 1: if you're cleaning the glass, is that admitting to yourself 193 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: that you know you shouldn't have done it? Because if 194 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: you had a glass of milk, would you put it 195 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: in the dishwasher? 196 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 3: No? I mean when I baby said, I always did 197 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 3: the dishes of any kind of dish that I dirtied, 198 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 3: So I don't think that that necessarily provides guilt. 199 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: But oh okay, next one, Howdy, says Kaylee. First of all, 200 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: like to say how I appreciate all four of you. 201 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: You helped me get through the passing of my mother. 202 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: I wrote in last October when she was diagnosed with als, 203 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 1: and she passed last month. I'm so sorry to hear 204 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: that because of her passing, I'm behind on the podcast 205 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: listening of The Big Show. My two dogs always yanked 206 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: our arms when walking. Then we found the brand Halty 207 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: on Amazon works tremendously, and she goes onto some details 208 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: on that one because I'm really trying to figure out 209 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: how to get Bernie to not pull. He's a strong 210 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: boy and sometimes if he's going this way then darts 211 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: the other way, he'll like really really pull. Also, you 212 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: discussed the cashiers with pens the check and see if 213 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: your hundred dollars bill is counterfeit. The pens aren't for 214 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: marking then holding the bill up to the light. A 215 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: real bill will mark a very light, almost translucent yellow, 216 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: whereas the counterfeit marks a deep brown. It tests the 217 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 1: level of linen in the bills. I didn't know, huh. 218 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 4: I didn't know that either, And I used to work 219 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 4: in retail, and we used to have to mark stuff, 220 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 4: but they would just be like, yeah, you're gonna write 221 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 4: this thing on here, and then we weren't like told, Okay, 222 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 4: what do we do with that now that we have 223 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 4: this marker on here? 224 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 3: Like okay, really I knew that, like I think we 225 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 3: only I think we only ever looked at like one 226 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 3: hundred dollar bills when I worked at it. But yeah, 227 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 3: I knew that if it had like a dark mark 228 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 3: on it, that that was kind of fit. Uh. 229 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: That is from Kaylee from Ohio. Kaylee, thanks for listening 230 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: all the way in Ohio. Hello morning crew. Sarah here 231 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: from Hudson. Thanks for bringing the energy as always, all rock. 232 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: I love Theday motivation this week, which was I will 233 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: read it to you again. I actually put it on 234 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: my Instagram because people seem to like it so much. 235 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: So the Monday motivation was most people's work ethic is 236 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: trash because they're waiting to feel motivated. Motivation is for amateurs. 237 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: Discipline is doing it when you don't feel like it 238 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: every single day. That's the difference. Stop waiting for feelings 239 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: and start operating on standards. And I read that yesterday 240 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: expecting a big backlash from people who didn't want to, 241 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: you know, do it on days that they don't feel motivated, 242 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,839 Speaker 1: but so many people support it. Everybody did so, she says. 243 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: I'm the manager of college aid students and it can 244 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: be exhausting to constantly try and motivate them. I found 245 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: the quote you shared so relatable because you really are 246 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: the driver of your own success. I often think one 247 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: word that describes it is grit. People that have a goal, 248 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: set their mind to it, and follow through with intention, 249 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: and they succeed even if you miss. You tried and 250 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 1: learned something along the way. Thanks to each of you 251 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: for sharing your success and failures with us. Both are 252 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: important to grow and set and you guys set great examples. 253 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: And then she goes on to talk about slow cooker 254 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: Sundays and I'm gonna save these recipes for French onion 255 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 1: pot roast, turkey meat turkey meatball soup, green chicken chili, 256 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: and for vaunt my favorite crock pot pork chops with 257 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: apples and stuffing. PS. Jenny, you were right, opal Lite 258 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: is great. That's my favorite. What are the rest of 259 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: you like? From Taylor's album Go Pack, Oh, Go Pack, Go, 260 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: She says, Oh, have a great day. I don't know 261 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: about Taylor's album, and I'm not particularly interested, just like 262 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: you might not be interested in Passions of mine. Yeah, 263 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: and I don't have anything against it. It just is 264 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: not that interesting to me. 265 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 4: It is also not my I'm not interested in Taylor 266 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 4: Swift either, and not because I don't like her. 267 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 2: I just don't care about her music, that's all. 268 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 3: I will still stick with Opallite is my favorite. I 269 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 3: would say the Fate of Ophelia probably comes in second, 270 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 3: and then The Life of a show Girl is third 271 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 3: for me. And there's some songs on that I could 272 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 3: care less about. Ruin the friendship eldest Daughter. You don't 273 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 3: really care about any. 274 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: Of those, Okay, last one on the Minnesota Goodbye Dave, 275 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: Jenny Bailey. I need a little advice. This is from 276 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: a guy named Austin. I have a first date later today. 277 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: This was written this morning, about an hour ago, and 278 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: it's my first in a while, and I'm thinking about 279 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: bringing her a bouquet of flowers or a single rose? 280 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 1: Is that a little too much for a first date? 281 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 1: We've never met and only talked on dating sites. The 282 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: internet gives me mixed reactions. I'm looking for your feedback. Thanks. 283 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: Don't share my name please. Okay, I'll go back and 284 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: I will delete the part of this conversation where I 285 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: said your name Jenny. What do you think? 286 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 3: I personally think it's sweet. I don't know what your 287 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 3: date is, so I think that that maybe would play 288 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 3: a role. But I do think it's sweet to show 289 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 3: up with a bouquet of flowers. I think some people 290 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 3: might take it the wrong way, but I would not. 291 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 3: I would think that that it was very like chivalrous, 292 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 3: very kind, and very thoughtful. 293 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 4: Okay, if you're going to get a bouquet, don't get 294 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 4: a single rose. Yeah, the single rose is weird. 295 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 2: I agree.

There 342 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: are some that are really long, and honestly, I look 343 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: at the ones that are really long and I kind 344 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: of skim through them to see if there's something I 345 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: can get from there, and sometimes there is and sometimes 346 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: there's not. And I hate to reject anybody's email because 347 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: I feel that if you wrote to the show and 348 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: you care enough to write, I really want to read 349 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: your email. But you know, some of them just really 350 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: are a little bit too long, or there's something that 351 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: we've talked about many many times, or you know, for 352 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: whatever reason. But always thank you for writing and if 353 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: you wrote before and we read it right again, and 354 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: if you've never written, write for the first time. And 355 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: if you wrote before and we didn't read it, hey, 356 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: try us again.
