Let's give it a shot. 5 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,159 Speaker 2: Hey y'all. Hay, So, this week's rent is kind of 6 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:20,279 Speaker 2: an extension of my No Phone Screen on Friday episode 7 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 2: about people who don't do the speed limit, but when 8 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 2: you try to get around them, all of a sudden, 9 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 2: they become speedy Gonzales. Nothing pisses me off more than 10 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 2: a person who's if the speed limit is fucking sixty 11 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 2: five miles an hour and you're doing sixty, I don't 12 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 2: want to do sixty, so I'm gonna go around you. 13 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 2: But why is it that these assholes, they're so fucking arrogant. 14 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 2: As soon as they figure out that you're trying to 15 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: get around them, all of a sudden, now they want 16 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 2: to pick up speed. All of a sudden, they get 17 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 2: this burst of energy to where they want to hit 18 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: the pedal now. So, Dave, this is where I propose 19 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 2: where I want to put on Dave. I want to 20 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: create a contraption. It's called oh no, you don't thousand 21 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 2: Where you push a button. It's almost like a car taser. 22 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 2: So whenever these assholes decide that they want to try 23 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 2: to pick up speed after you try to get around them, 24 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: you push this button and it tases their card and 25 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: puts them back to the speed that there were. Goddamnit, 26 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 2: these people really do piss me the fuck off. Also, 27 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 2: I kind of want to ask Ranger Jessica a question. 28 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 2: I can't remember the name of that bug, but it's 29 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: the one where the female eats the male actor she 30 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 2: gets through having sex with them. I kind of like her, 31 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 2: but I'm just wondering why does she do that? And 32 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 2: how is it that they keep populating if she keeps 33 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: chewing up all the men? And why are the men 34 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: bugs so fucking stupid? 35 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 3: It's like, is it that serious to where you're willing 36 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 3: to risk your life over a piece of buggy booty? 37 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 3: I mean, come on, I can just imagine all these 38 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: little male bugs sitting together drinking a beer asking each other, Hey, 39 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 3: is anybody saying Frank? 40 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 2: I don't know. Last time I saw him, he was 41 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: looking up with Linda. 42 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 3: Linda over there, she was. 43 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,399 Speaker 2: Looking kind of hot. Is that Frank? His head hanging 44 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: out of her mouth, Jesus Christ. The other bug goes. 45 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 2: I don't know, but I'm feeling kind of horny. I'm 46 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: going over. I mean, are they that fucking dumb? 47 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: Well? 48 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,399 Speaker 2: That's my rat for this week. You guys next week. 49 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: Love you. 50 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 4: If Wnita hasn't told you, I think she said before 51 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 4: that she doesn't smoke weed. But if she hadn't clarified that, 52 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 4: I would have been like, was this a high thought 53 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 4: that came into your mind? 54 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 5: I believe those are our praying mantises? Are the bugs 55 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 5: that do? 56 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: I think that sounds right. That sounds right. Thank you 57 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: Anita for the rant. Speaking of ranger Jessica, she wrote 58 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: in she says, sorry, I'm a day late in replying, 59 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: but vaunts little rhyme about bears is essentially true. Brown 60 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: laid down, black attack, and white good night, which translate 61 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 1: eight too. Here we go. If you encounter a brown 62 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: bear that's a grizzly, be quiet, back away slowly. If 63 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: it approaches or charges you, be still and don't make noises. 64 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: Grizzly are more aggressive and defensive, and you will likely 65 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: provoke provoke them if you yell and scream. 66 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 6: Well, then I was wrong. I thought you're supposed to 67 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 6: use the bear horn and be like. 68 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: Hey bear, Now, that is true on a black bear. 69 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: Now people think that there's a brown bear, a black bear, 70 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: and a grizzly bear. I don't know much about it, 71 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: but I've heard that black bears can be different colors. 72 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: They can be cinnamon colored, they can be brown, but 73 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: they're called a black bear. Don't literally attack a black bear, 74 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: but yell, scream, bang your water bottle on a rock, 75 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: throw things at it. Black bears are very passive and 76 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: easily scared, so do your best to scare them away 77 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: if they're coming close to you. That's good to know. 78 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, they're little babies. 79 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: They're little babies, so they'll get scared like a dog 80 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: that's jumpy. Like, Oh, they don't want to they don't 81 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: want to be bothered. If you happen to be caught 82 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: by a polar bear, well sorry, you're out of luck. 83 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: Try to get inside a building, your car immediately. These 84 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: bears are smart, huge and strong. They will outrun you 85 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: and you will not be able to scare them away. 86 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 5: Does she say anything about panda bears go up and 87 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 5: hug or oh they're adorable. 88 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're so gentle. 89 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, I just want to hide one one time. 90 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 4: And maybe I've told the story on the podcast before, 91 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 4: but when I was in Iceland, I learned that if 92 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 4: a polar bear makes it to Iceland, this is kind 93 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 4: of sad. They end up having, like on a chunk 94 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 4: of ice that broke off. They end up having to 95 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 4: shoot it because it's already like so hungry. 96 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 6: At that point, it's starving that it'll. 97 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 4: Be so obnoxiously aggressive that they can't do anything about it. 98 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: A bear to culvers, What the fuck? I mean, seriously, 99 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: you take the bear to culvers and give them a 100 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: butter burger. She's courage a butterburger. I don't know what 101 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 1: the I should be a scientist, you should. Jessica says 102 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: good rules for any time you're in bear country. One 103 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: carry bear spray. It works for black and grizzly. Number two. 104 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: Calling out, hey bear, or listening to music or any 105 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: type of consistent noise will ensure you don't surprise a bear. 106 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: A startled bear is a dangerous bear. If it hears 107 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 1: you coming, it's likely gonna leave before you even know 108 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: it was there. 109 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 4: See now, some people get pissed though, when you're hiking 110 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 4: on a trail and someone's playing music. But when I 111 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 4: hear that, I assume that they're doing it for safety purposes. 112 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, Yeah I would. I would, you know, 113 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: on a certain kind of trail, I guess, But you know, 114 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: hiking through like a you know, the Tailor's Falls or 115 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: Apton State Park, you don't need your music blairing on 116 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: your bluetooth. 117 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 5: Three. 118 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: Recognize the difference between bear species, so you know how 119 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: to react if you do run in at a bonus, 120 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: learn to IDs scat and tracks, and almost follow bear 121 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: safety tips when camping. Bear proof your containers, don't feed 122 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: the bears, don't approach bears, call out other people who 123 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: aren't following the rules, etc. Bears are coming out of 124 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: higher nation now and many animals are mating and nesting 125 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: in the spring. Give animals space this time of the year, 126 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: and don't take Dave's advice and just staying inside. Get 127 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: out and enjoy the wonders of nature. And if a 128 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: bear eats you while you're hiking, well at least she 129 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: got to be in the newspaper from Ranger Jessica, love 130 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: your Ranger, Jessica, Thank you very much. 131 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 4: There was a time this summer when I was van 132 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 4: camping wild camping by myself, and it was right off 133 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 4: of like a reservoir or something. And I woke up 134 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 4: the next morning and there were tracks in this little 135 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 4: beach area that I swear like. I posted a picture 136 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 4: of it. It looked some kind of some form of 137 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 4: like a cat vibe. I took pictures of it, tried 138 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 4: to compare online. I don't think it was like a 139 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 4: coyote or anything like that. And there was no one around, 140 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 4: like I was in a completely empty area, so I 141 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 4: also know it couldn't have been someone's dog. But I 142 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 4: was a little bit nervous because I was just like 143 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 4: bopping around in the area exploring, and I was like. 144 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 6: Oh, could I have gotten eaten by some kind of 145 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 6: a cat? But what kind of this was in the up? 146 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 6: What kind of an them? 147 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 3: All? 148 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:01,119 Speaker 5: Mountain lion? 149 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: Well? No, what could have been? I mean, well, there's well, sure, 150 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: now there's the people call cougars, mountain lions, and panthers. 151 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: They're all I believe, ranger, Jessica, and maybe leave it 152 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: up to you. I believe they're the same thing. They're 153 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: just different colors. 154 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 5: A panther, I feel like a panther is like a junglely. 155 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: I believe they're all the same thing, just different colors. 156 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't know, I mean, I don't know. I've never 157 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: seen a panther in the wild. However, in Colorado, it's 158 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: so interesting because when I grew up there, it was 159 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: so wide open around the Black Forest area that there 160 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: were no deer or elk or whatever. Now all of 161 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: their territory, their habitat, has been destroyed and built, and 162 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: so all of these deer. I saw a bobcat in 163 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: Black Forest a couple of weeks ago. A bobcat. Wow, 164 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: there was no bobcats before. But all of their territories 165 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: been developed and destroyed. So they're wild turkeys. There are fox, 166 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: there are deer, there are elk. I'd never seen a 167 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: bear in my Black Forest yard my entire life, but 168 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: last summer I saw one on my ring cam eating 169 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: out of the bird feeder. Because they're building up all 170 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: the territory. They're building. You know, so many people moved 171 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: to Colorado, just like they're building up so many places 172 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. Next one from Dara writes in April Fools Joke, 173 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: you definitely got me on the Minnesota vikings bit. I 174 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: should have known right away, but I figured out when 175 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: I googled it and couldn't find anything to back it up. 176 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: The best prank I did was April Fools on my daughter. 177 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: She was eleven and was big on doing pranks that year, 178 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: although her ideas and what she did were more like 179 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: a mess not a joke. She would take a decad 180 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: cards and scatter them throughout our room. So to get 181 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: her back, I took several of her underwear, got them 182 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: a little wet, put them in the freezer all night, 183 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,599 Speaker 1: then just before she woke up, I'd put them in 184 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: her drawer. She was so shocked and it was so 185 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: funny to see her reaction. I have a work issue 186 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: I want to discuss, but I'll send another day since 187 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: it's a long one. Hope y'all have a great Easter. 188 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,959 Speaker 1: Easter is Sunday Day. 189 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 5: Sunday, Sunday, Okay. 190 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: Next one. My name is Sidney, the same one who 191 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: thought Jenny was six foot tall earlier this week. Wasn't 192 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: she on the radio? 193 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, we got her. We call her. 194 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,839 Speaker 1: I've been listening to KTWB ever since I was a kid. 195 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: I wanted to share this photo from last year's Minnesota 196 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: State Fair, and I'll describe it to you. I was 197 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: super excited because my husband is from North Dakota. He'd 198 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: never been to the fair. I dragged him along with 199 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: my sister and her girlfriend to the KDWB booth. The 200 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: minute you guys arrived. I wouldn't consider myself a shyer 201 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: nervous person, but the minute I saw you guys in 202 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 1: real life, I forgot what words were. Luckily, my fiance 203 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: had the balls to ask Bailey if my sister and 204 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: I can get a photo featured below. If you notice 205 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: in the background, Dave appears to be screaming. 206 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 4: He was. 207 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: As this photo was being taken, Dave started yelling at 208 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: the crowd to stop requesting photos, as there was going 209 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,839 Speaker 1: to be a set time for that. I thought nothing 210 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: of it because I knew you're only yelling to get 211 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: people's attention and not to be mean or rude. I 212 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: wish I could have gotten a picture of all of you, 213 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: but Dave screaming in the background is a close second, 214 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: and sure enough, there I am in the background in 215 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 1: the booth, standing next to Jenny with my mouth wide open. 216 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't remember I think people would come up to 217 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: the booth and say hey, can I get a picture? 218 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: And I said, hey, we're going to make a line 219 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: over here in a couple of minutes to get pictures. 220 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 4: I think we also, like there were moments where we 221 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 4: had to record things for the radio. 222 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, so there were moments where we. 223 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 4: Had to be like, guys, we can't take photos right now, 224 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 4: like we have to go do a show. 225 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 5: Please please. 226 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: Next one. We got a lot of emails, so this 227 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: is good, this is good stuff. Let me know, Jenny, 228 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: We've got. 229 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 6: Plenty of time. I'll give you plenty of time to 230 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 6: get switched. 231 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: Over, okay, because we record during the show and then 232 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: we have to go back to the show and we 233 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: have to like reset all of the equipment to go 234 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: back to the other show. Here we go from Katie, 235 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: what are your Eastern traditions? Do you get together with 236 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: extended family every Easter? No, we don't. I mean when 237 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: the kids were little, it was always a basket and 238 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: we'd hide plastic Easter eggs around the house. We don't 239 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: really have any. We're not big religious Easter people. We 240 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: won't go to church on Sunday. I will finish up 241 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 1: by saying I have learned it not to inject my 242 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: life into Alison, my daughter's life with her husband and 243 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: her three daughters. I am not gonna say, Alison, you 244 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: must come over for Easter dinner and we got an 245 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: Easter egg hunt in the backyard, and we're gonna go. No. 246 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: She's got her own family, she's got her own girls, 247 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: she's got her own husband. Let them have their own 248 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: Easter thing. Grandma and grandpa don't need to be part 249 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: of it. However, if she said, Hey, want you guys 250 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 1: to come over, we'd be glad to come over. Yeah, 251 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: but I don't like it when grandparents automatically inject themselves 252 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: into their kids Easter for example. Yeah, let them have 253 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: their own. 254 00:11:58,520 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 6: Sure. 255 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 4: I haven't lived near my family for a very long time, 256 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 4: so it's been kind of up in the air. I've 257 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 4: celebrated Easter more so with like a partner's family in 258 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 4: recent years. But when I was growing up, my parents' 259 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 4: best friends put together this huge Easter. 260 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 6: Egg hunt and it was so fun. 261 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 4: They had a lot of like property, they use the 262 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 4: neighbor's yards, and once we got older the kids, the 263 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 4: older kids got clues and we had to find our 264 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 4: first like five eggs with the clues first. Before we 265 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 4: could just find random egs. So now my sister has 266 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 4: kind of taken on that tradition, and my niece's birthday 267 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 4: is coming up, so she kind of doesn't joined Easter 268 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 4: egg birthday party and hunt. And I was able to 269 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 4: make it last year. I'm not able to make it 270 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: this year unfortunately. So I don't really have traditions with Easter. 271 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 4: It's just it's a Sunday, so it's hard for me 272 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 4: when I live five hours away from my family. 273 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,559 Speaker 5: Yeah, I go to church every Easter with my mom, 274 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 5: and now we're both in the church choir, so we 275 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 5: sing on Easter Sunday as well. I think my niece 276 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 5: is and my sister and my niece are coming to 277 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 5: Easter Sunday church as well, so that's exciting. And then 278 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 5: I mean probably not this year, but in the past, 279 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 5: I mean we always go and get like food somewhere, 280 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 5: but we used to like I'd go home where when 281 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 5: I lived with my mother, and then we would watch 282 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 5: either the Sound of Music or The Ten Commandments or 283 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,839 Speaker 5: like some old sweeping movie that's big screen, but we 284 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 5: would watch it on our little TV. And that was 285 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 5: or like Gone with the Wind or something like that. 286 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 5: We'd always watch some long movie classic on Easter. 287 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: Second question from Katie have you watched Love Story on 288 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 1: FX the JFK junior Carolyn Bassett Story. Yes, I watched 289 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: the whole thing. I keep saying it was tasty, it's delicious, 290 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: it's scandalous, it is a lot of it is fictionalized. 291 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: She says, I can't help thinking about the plane crash. 292 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: I know hindsight is twenty twenty, but I have so 293 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: many thoughts. Well, you've come to the right person because 294 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: I know exactly what happened. How could they clear them 295 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: to fly in the dark if he wasn't instrument trained 296 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: when he couldn't see, why not fly back towards the 297 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: horizon and city lights to guide them? Okay, so first 298 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: of all, you don't get cleared. You are your own 299 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: clearer to fly in the dark. You do not have 300 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: to be instrant radem to fly in the dark. It's 301 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: more difficult to fly in the dark because everything looks different. 302 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: But you don't have to be cleared. There is no 303 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: clearance to fly that they don't like sign you off. 304 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: You decide on your own. So he wasn't instrument rated, 305 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: and that was one of the big things. So if 306 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: he flew into fog, he could no longer see the 307 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: lights on the shore. And that's what happened. He flew 308 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: into a fog. He got a later start in the movie. 309 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: They say that he was late because she wanted to 310 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: get her nails done, and he was pissed because if 311 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: she had not spent an hour and a half get 312 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: her nails done, they could have flown when it was 313 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: light and they wouldn't have crashed. I don't know whether 314 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: that's true or not, but there's a thing called spatial 315 00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: disorientation where you literally don't know up from down, and 316 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: he was probably flying straight down toward the ocean and 317 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: didn't realize it. He probably thought he was flying straight 318 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: and level or even climbing. 319 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 5: Doesn't it fit Onn't your like stomach feel weird though, 320 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 5: like because you're descending. 321 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: No, that's the thing about it, Bailey is because again 322 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: it's called spatial disorientation, where your brain and your inner 323 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: ear and your stomach tells you one hundred percent you 324 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: are straight and level or you are turning right, and 325 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: you gotta look at your instruments because your instruments won't lie. Yeah, 326 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: but your inner ear will tell you you're climbing, Yeah, and 327 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: you're descending. 328 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 6: That's so weird. I never knew that. You've taught me 329 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 6: that in the last year. 330 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a plane crash out in what town 331 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: of Victoria just a couple of years ago, and it 332 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: was soupy weather and somebody was coming in for a 333 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: landing and they got spatially disoriented. Didn't know up from down. 334 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: They say that if it happens to you and you 335 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: can't see the horizon or the ground or anything, gotta 336 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: look at your instruments and you've got to believe them. 337 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: But your mind and your interear is so overpowering that 338 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people don't and they die. 339 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 3: Wow. 340 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: Okay, and next one, thank you, Kate. And this is 341 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: hold on, Sorry he's taking me a second. Here we 342 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: go from Marie. A couple of questions. I'm sure it's 343 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: been pointed out to you before, but have you noticed 344 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: that the the in your show logo is off center? 345 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: It's so subtle, but it irritates me. Really, can anybody 346 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: see the show logo from where we are? 347 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 5: Yeah? 348 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 4: So it's above it's above the R instead of like 349 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 4: I think, what would have happened if we made it 350 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 4: centered is it would have been above part of the E, 351 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 4: over the space, and then part of the R. And 352 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 4: I think that that would have looked a little bit weird. 353 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 4: But I'm not a graphic designer, so maybe this person 354 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 4: has like a better I for things like that. 355 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 6: But it's true. 356 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: Okay, interesting, I've never noticed that. And I don't see 357 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: a logo from here, but I will look at one later. 358 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: Next one. I like this one. I like them all. 359 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: Hey y'all, Hey, I'm writing in with some thoughts about 360 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: the conversation regarding small talk. I like to think of 361 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 1: myself as someone with the gift of gab. And there's 362 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: this strategy I love for small talk. Oh this should 363 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: be good. Basically, pretend you already know them. Start the 364 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 1: conversation as you would with somebody you already know, So, 365 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: how is your day, What did you guys get up 366 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: to this weekend? Then the conversation more naturally flows into 367 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: topics that are easy to talk about with anybody. I 368 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: think people hate small talk when they put too much 369 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 1: pressure on themselves to find common ground immediately in the conversation. 370 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: No need to do that, Just start talking about anything. Really, 371 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: and the common ground will present itself eventually. Have a 372 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: great day. So I'm gonna go back and repeat that. 373 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: Pretend that you already know them, start the conversation as 374 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: you would with somebody you already know. So, how is 375 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 1: your day? What did you get into this weekend? I 376 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: think that's probably good advice. 377 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 5: I used to do that all the time when I 378 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 5: was going on first dates. Is I would make the 379 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 5: choice to go into the first date like I already 380 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,360 Speaker 5: knew the person, and it honestly helped me be way 381 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 5: less nervous and not have to worry so much. And 382 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 5: so what do you do for a living? Nice? So 383 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 5: are you close with your mom? 384 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 4: Uh? 385 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 5: Huh? Nice? And instead I was just like I would 386 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 5: talk to them like I had known them for five 387 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 5: years and that we were already friends. Granted, then I 388 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 5: feel like I gave the wrong idea to a lot 389 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 5: of dudes because they're like, Wow, she really likes me, Like, no, 390 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 5: not really, I'm just a friendly person, isn't it funny? 391 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,400 Speaker 1: Chemistry is such a funny thing because you never know 392 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: who you're going to have great chemistry with and who 393 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 1: you're going to like struggle for things to talk about 394 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: A old friend of mine called up the other day. 395 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: Knew him from high school and we just talked just 396 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 1: We could have talked for four hours, but after about 397 00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: forty five minutes, I was like, I got stuff I 398 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: gotta do. Yeah, people you go on a date with 399 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: them or you go to lunch and it's kind of 400 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 1: like you end up looking around the room for something 401 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: to talk about, like, oh man, those candles are something else. 402 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, well your friends too, Like I have friends that 403 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 5: are like that, where I'm just like, gosh, all you 404 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 5: really got to figure out what to say next. 405 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 6: Sheesh. 406 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: I remember the first time I ever talked to a 407 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: girl on the phone.
