The Minnesota Mini State Fair wrapped up, and this episodic adventure with guest co-host Emily Hince captures all the chaotic goodness you'd expect from two friends let loose among food vendors and craft booths. From the moment we arrive, we're on a mission to indulge in every essential fair experience.
Our culinary journey begins with the mandatory Mouth Trap cheese curds - a unanimous favorite - before discovering the heavenly combination of warm mini apple pie topped with cinnamon ice cream. We share a passionate plea to ice cream manufacturers everywhere: why isn't cinnamon a standard flavor option? The food sampling continues with Tot Boss loaded tater tots and nachos and slushies, all strategically shared to maximize our tasting potential without falling into a complete carb coma.
Between bites, we encounter memorable fair moments including a particularly eyebrow-raising sight of a woman simultaneously breastfeeding while downing a 16-ounce beer (and ordering two more to go). The people-watching at these events truly remains unmatched, rivaled only by our own misadventures - breaking a wine glass at a vendor's booth and later spending 20 minutes desperately searching for a bright blue car in a sea of seemingly identical vehicles.
Shopping becomes another highlight as we continue our annual tradition of getting permanent bracelets, marveling that last year's still look pristine. The Better Goods booth captures our attention with irresistible animal-themed clothing, including a chicken-patterned sweatshirt that I simply couldn't walk away from, inadvertently starting a shopping trend among fairgoers behind us.
As our conversation shifts to recent entertainment picks, we dive into discussions about the Timberwolves playoffs, Ginny and Georgia's latest season, compelling documentaries about the Titan submersible tragedy, and book recommendations featuring psychological thrillers by Lucinda Berry and Lisa Regan. We wrap up celebrating Emily's recent graduation and the strange feeling of finally completing a long educational journey.
Grab your favorite fair snack, settle in, and join us for this quintessential Minnesota summer experience that has us already counting down to the main State Fair - though we're definitely not counting the exact 63 days, because who would do that?

Emily, I don't know if I've ever told you this in my
life, but I either need you totalk louder or I've got to
figure out my system.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I think you're the first person that's ever said
that, to me too.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Well, maybe it'd help if I turned your mic on.
Welcome to the show I've got tofigure it out.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Maybe it'd help if I turned your mic on.
Welcome to the show.
We got it figured out.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Thank you.
Thank you, however, you wereloud enough that I could pick up
on you on my own microphone, sothere's that.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I mean yeah, I mean Patrick always said I was his
favorite friend because he couldalways hear me.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
It will be definitely a good thing.
As we age, I won't have to belike what I can always hear me.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
You can always hear me when we're old ladies on the
porch, there we go.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
So today we're going to talk about the mini state
fair, and it did happen about amonth ago, but you know life,
here we are.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
It doesn't matter.
State fair is state fair.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
And we're still looking forward to the state
fair coming up in Two months.
Two months, who's counting?
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Not me 52 days.
I Not me because I don't have awhole week off around that time
frame and you don't either.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Me either.
Not at all.
Who would plan their vacationaround the state fair Minor?
All right, so some highlights.
First of all, let's talk aboutif you haven't been to the mini
state fair or you're such adedicated listener that you
listen to this show unlike Emily, in a different state and
you're not familiar.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I deserve it.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
We're going gonna tell you a little bit about it.
So one thing that usminnesotans pride ourself on is
that we have the second largeststate fair in the country.
Texas is first.
Texas was first.
And bigfoot bob told me,because he lives in texas and
he's my other guest co-host,that we're their state.
Because I'm like, oh, I kind ofthat'd be a really great excuse
to go to Texas, to go to thatstate fair.
And I happen to know somebodywho lives there.
(01:49):
But he told me it's in a reallysketchy part of the state
Really, where a lot of bad shithappens, interesting.
And he said, like you have tokind of be on your A game and be
watching out.
There's a lot of like theft.
We to be watching out, there'sa lot of like theft.
We do not have that problem atall.
I mean, I have heard of storiesof last year.
For example, there were peoplethrowing firearms over the fence
at night.
(02:10):
Um, but I feel like we'reusually out of there by 10
o'clock at night and lately,I've never seen any any of that,
but um, anyway, I don't know ifit's because we are just live
in oblivion or we're just sohigh on sugar that we can't tell
Both.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
I mean, I think we're in a carb coma and people
watching, you know, has hasreally made us not pay attention
to reality because the peoplewatching at any state fair event
is Primo Amazing.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
So yeah, so the mini state fair.
Anyway, every state has a statefair, and if you don't have a
state fair, I'm so sorry, don'tcome to ours, it's already too
busy.
I used to really worry aboutwanting people to come to the
fair, so it never ended.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
But it's out of control.
Social media has made it threetimes the size.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yeah, Search it up on your TikTok and you'll find out
how great it is.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
So many things, but don great it is so many.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But don't come because we already can't move
it's.
We're packed in like sardines.
So, highlights of the statefair mini state fair, our food.
What did we eat, emily, at themini state?
Speaker 2 (03:11):
fair um.
We had don't worry, I wrote itdown I'm trying to remember
exactly we shared cheese curdsfrom mouth trap from mouth trap,
which are the best cheese curdsfor sure, and this year you
actually got to go into the foodbuilding to pick them up, which
in years past you couldn't.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah Also no, have they ever even had Mouth Trap at
the mini fair.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
This was the first year they even had that they did
it at the drive-thru duringCOVID, but maybe not during the
mini.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
This might have been the first one during the mini.
The mini keeps expanding everyyear a little bit, yeah well,
the vendors do the space.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Doesn't have you noticed that it's been in the
same area each year?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
well, I feel like when we were at mouth trap, like
that little area was openbuilding.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Yeah and yeah, and it hasn't been open before the um
sky sky ride, the one that spinsaround like the seattle.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Oh, was that open it wasn't open, but it was right
there yeah, yeah, yeah, and Ifeel like that's new space that
they used to have taped off.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah what was the first thing?
We had mini apple pie, that's.
How can you forget?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
that cinnamon ice cream the best.
If you make ice cream Kemps,breyers, ben and Jerry ever, why
don't you make Cinnamon?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
ice cream, it's so good, it's so good.
And with a warm Slice of applepie.
Nothing better so good.
Nothing better so fucking good.
Oh.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
And we shared it.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Because I mean, we wanted To pace ourselves.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Because we wanted To fit a lot in.
Yeah, yeah, but you can easilyConsume that by yourself.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
It is, if people remember the caramel apple
empanada from Taco Bell, whichis one of my favorite things,
that they brought back for a dayand then got rid of again.
It's very similar in size andtaste to that, but I think this
is better.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
It's better.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I don't like that Taco Bell empanada and I am a
Taco Bell fan oh, it's one of myfavorite things, I miss it.
I'm a Taco Bell fan oh, it'sone of my favorite things, I
miss it.
And then we had food wise, Idon't think we had much after
that Tot Boss.
We had Tot Boss and I wantedwontons.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
But the wontons were sold out by three o'clock.
Everything at that food truck.
What is that food truck called?
It's Cuvette.
Oh yeah, cuvette, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Something, yeah, yeah , something, yeah, um, they had
every as wendy would say, asianinvasion.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
She would, she would.
She said that again today andI'm like you can't say that it's
offensive, poor wendy.
I'm like it's asian innovation.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yes, yeah, innovation oh my god, um yeah, by three
o'clock on sunday, a lot ofthings were sold out when it was
open till seven yeah, and whenwe went to al's malts, the only
thing they had left waschocolate yeah, and I didn't
know you could still get caramelno, didn't know that either.
It'd be nice if they told usthat it looked like it was just
chocolate and that you're likeit's two dollars more.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
I'm like I don't care , I'm at the fair.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
It's delicious, the amount of money I spend at these
things.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I don't, I don't count, I don't count, um.
So yeah, and then we had, so wehad them all that was all we
had to eat.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah, we didn't have.
And then we only had a fewdrinks.
We had that slushy when theband, the unicorn band, played.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Oh that unicorn band was good.
They were really good.
That Bruno Mars mashup was goodand I got a unicorn tattoo.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's right.
That was at Dino's yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
That's a really great place for live music.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
I've never hung out there for live music before.
It's always been Famous, dave's, really.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, even at the regular.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
State Fair.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Yeah, oh, I've had some really great times at that
Dino's.
They always have like goodcover bands.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Yeah, I've never.
I've only done the FamousDave's one a few times and that
was it.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
And then we had we went good, and then you had a
grape, grape, ape grape, yeah,yeah, yeah, that's good, and
then, and I'm, actually not afan of grape flavor, but that
grape is good every year.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
It's good they have it at the twin stadium in the um
drink coolers and you can getit in cans yeah, what brewery
makes that?
Speaker 1 (06:59):
uh, lift bridge.
Okay, that's what I thought,that's good.
Yeah, so they make the bomb poptoo.
Yeah, the bomb.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
And they have, and they had that in the cans too at
the Twins game the other week.
It was actually kind of cool.
I kind of like that you can goin a cooler and pick out
whatever you want and theoptions are endless.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Yeah, I really like going to Saints games.
For the food in the they havelike that craft beer area.
Snuffy's Malt there they'regetting fun.
I mean they're fun, but I, Ilove a good twins game, but I
prefer saints games.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yeah, same same and it's cheaper.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah, I think.
Yeah, it's funner, it's in acooler area I mean, I work two
blocks from there from thesaints game yeah, you could just
go after work a lot walk downthere yeah, scooter and get a
lime, scooter and just cruise ondown, I work in kind of a
sketch area.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
my office is next to a methadone clinic, the St Paul
Police Department and a doggiedaycare.
All three out of the fourcorners.
You're a brave girl.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I'm too much of a wuss.
I like to act tough, but I'mnot.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I'm so used to it.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
now my mouth is tough , my body is not, your brain is
like no, what did you just say?
Can you back that shit up?
So while we were having somedrinks at the ballpark cafe, for
the first time ever, I saw alady drinking and breastfeeding
at the same time.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
And it wasn't just one drink either.
It was a tall 16 ounce beer asshe was breastfeeding and then
took two more to go, and sheclearly had to feed her kid
later, so I don't know that sheyeah, she left the left, the
ballpark cafe, with two drinksin her herself in her um
(08:35):
stroller it was the giant wagonstroller thing and watching them
try to maneuver to get in thereand then like the way that they
took up space for their familyand then, like some other people
, tried to sit there and thedirty looks they gave.
I'm like we're in a tight area.
You cannot take up four tablesfor your family of like five,
(08:56):
and how do you judge when you'redrinking a beer and
breastfeeding your baby?
I like to say no offense to ourWisconsin listeners, but I like
to say that they're probablyfrom Wisconsin because I don't
think anybody in Minnesota woulddo that.
But that's just me beingprotective of Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
So I did go to work and ask about this because I was
really on my mind and they didsay like actually, they tell you
like if you're gonna breastfeedit's because of the time lapse
of the alcohol getting into yoursystem getting into the breast
milk Like it's better to drinkand breastfeed, but then you
have to wait like X amount oftime after that.
(09:32):
But that was my concern is Idon't think she was.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
The optics weren't good.
At the end of the day, theoptics weren't great, and
whether that was her first drinkor not, I'm going to be judgy.
I don't think it was?
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I don't think it was I don't think it was so.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Especially for how fast she was drinking them she
finished the 16 ounce before wefinished one 12 ounce oh yeah we
just easily easily so that wasprobably the oh and then.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
The other crazy thing has happened is you were
shopping and then you droppedthat glass first and where I
thought I lost my car yeah andthen we lost your car.
Oh, to be fair, when you getthere and you park, they just
shove you in and it looks sodifferent.
Right, it's not full and thenit's full when you leave.
Yeah, there's no like distinctparking lines nope, nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
And I was convinced that we did not park in the dirt
.
I vividly remember parking onasphalt.
That's what I was like.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
We don't need to look in the dirt, we don't need to
look when I called you and Ifound the car, you're like is it
in the trees?
I'm like it is, and you're likeI don't need to look.
When I called you and I foundthe car, you're like is it in
the trees?
And I'm like it is, and you'relike.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I don't remember that at all and normally I have like
a really good memory, like Ihave a sense of direction, like
my dad, where I can rememberthose types of things.
Nope, heck.
I parked at the airport andknew exactly four days later
where my car was in.
When I went to Arizona in April, knew exactly where my car was
without taking a picture, couldn, couldn't find this one.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I'm terrible.
I lose my car all the time.
I lose my car at Target, I losemy car wherever I am.
I'm just so excited that, like,whatever, like, I'm excited to
be at the mini state fair, soI'm not even paying attention to
parking.
I'm thinking about mini applepie.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Yes, I was like we're just going because we usually
get there right when it opens,and we stayed until what?
Five this time.
So we were there pretty longtime.
And then it's one thing.
It's something we have doneevery year since it started for
your birthday, and I love that.
For the first few years no oneknew about it.
They were like what do you mean?
You're going to?
What state fair, the greatestthing ever, you what?
(11:28):
I don't know what you'retalking about.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
And now this year was the busiest well, every time
it's busiest every time Justlike the numbers for the real
estate fair every year it's likeyou're there on the busiest day
.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, that's true.

Shirts everywhere, yes, um, butthis year it was just everybody
was wearing wolves gear and itwas.
I mean, I have never been a bigbasketball fan.
The last couple of years,though, I've really gotten into
it, and I think part of it isbecause the wolves have been so
fun to watch you went to moregames this year than I did.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I didn't't go to any.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I went to two, and both of them I brought my nephew
with me.

Without a bra on sweats and at-shirt, and maybe a glass of
wine in my hand.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
And no line for the pisser.

Mine stayed on, but it tarnished really bad, and so
then last year we got one and weboth still had it on.
And then this year we gotanother one added and that was
really cool.
They wanted to take picturesbecause we still had the other
one, and the quality is stillthere.
And we were even selling peoplebecause we're like oh yeah, we
got this one last year and it'sstill great.
And they're like can we see it?
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Can't even tell it's been worn and stuff.
I thought I was going to haveto cut it off back in December
when I had a procedure done, soI was a little nervous.
I'm like I can't get rid of it.
Speaker 1 (14:52):

No, I did.
I did buy a shirt, though I didbuy a shirt, I was like I need
to buy this and leave.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I need to walk away right now.
It was funny because there wassome other girls in there and I
heard like their guys that werewith them, like they came out
first and they're like what didyou break in there?
And they're like it wasn't us,wasn't us.
And I just came out, I'm likeit was us.
And then I could tell they werelike a little embarrassed, like
because they didn't think thatI could hear them say that no, I
will admit it, I was mortifiedand I think I was more mortified
because the guy was rude aboutit.
(18:39):
Like accidents happen are yougonna go back in there and the
real estate fair?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
yeah, I'll go back in there, yeah, and I might buy a
wine glass I might.
I did like it.
I want.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
It was a new pattern I was showing you, I know I know
, I, I remember, I rememberseeing it on the floor.
I know I was like look, it's socute.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Crash.
Oh god, I can't.
Oh, I was like you know what ithappens.
It was twelve dollars.
You know what it happens it was$12.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
You know what it's making me laugh, so that's good.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
I'm laughing at it now.
I know, yeah, you weren't.
I was like we're never talkingabout that again.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Then you just want to go home, and then you can't
find your car.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
I couldn't find my car for 20 minutes.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It wasn't even like five minutes, it was a long time
.
And then you can telleveryone's like, oh, they don't
know where they parked, okaythere was another guy that was
lost too.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Him and I were going trading aisles up and down.
I could tell that we were justtrading aisles up and down and
I'm like I don't know where itis.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
I just think it's funny that where we really
thought it was was nowhere nearthere.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
It's not like my car is hard to find either.
It's bright blue yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
You would.
You would be surprised how manybright blue cars there are when
you're looking for that's truenatalie.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
When she was little, she'd see a bright blue suv on
the road and go oh there's emmy.
She's like not even close, nother, not even close.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Well, that was me too , like when you first got that
car.
It was the only bright blue carI ever saw.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Now, you see them everywhere.
Yeah, true all right.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
What's on your radar?
What are you reading?
What are you watching?
What are you into?
Speaker 2 (20:08):
well, I'm gonna watch the final basketball game which
is tonight.
I mean, I'm for okc, so you arefor the thunder yeah, I don't
like indiana.
Why I've never liked indiana?
Speaker 1 (20:18):
why you can't just not like something without a
reason, the only reason I likeokc, sga, that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Okay, like SGA.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Chet Holmgren is from Minnehaha Academy.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Yes, there is a lot of Minnesota connections,
halliburton's dad, that wholesituation, tyrese Halliburton's
dad and how they handle thatwhole situation did not sit well
with me at all.
So the situation if you don'twatch basketball is that the dad
is crazy and he overstepped alot of boundaries and they don't
let him come to any games otherthan home games yeah, but he
(20:52):
got so aggressive towardsanother team and the fact that
they like didn't suspend himjust for the rest of the season
across all games, kind of Idon't know, it just didn't.
Like I'm all gave you the ick.
It did, it gave me the ick.
Like I'm all for supportingyour child, like I've been to so
many kids' sporting events.
They get nasty, the parents,the parents get so nasty and to
(21:12):
me it's like that's not whatit's about.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
It's about enjoying it Is it, though, when it's,
this is their career, this ishow they make money.
Kids, it should be fun teachinga lot of things.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
It's the player's career, but career but not the
parents career maybe it is hiscareer maybe maybe his income
depends on his kid that thatthen you still got to sit down
and shut up and be respectful,like that's my thing, like I'm
just trying to get you fired, Iappreciate it, but I'm like no,
that is so.
It just gave me the ick, so Iand I like, I like the ties that
(21:43):
sga has with his cousin inminnesota and everything like it
.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Just, I, just, just, I, just it's like a mini Kelsey
brother situation yeah, a littlebit, but cousins, in basketball
.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Yeah, um, so that I plan on watching and then
started the new season of Ginnyand Georgia only through episode
one.
You're further along than I am.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I only have one episode left.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I've heard it's really good this year, did you
like last?
Speaker 1 (22:08):
season.
I'm gonna try to not have oneepisode left.
I've heard it's really goodthis year, did you like last
season?
I'm going to try to not haveany spoilers here because I know
you haven't watched.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
it had to remember, really, when I watched the first
episode of the season, of likewhat happened, because it's been
so long.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
It really focused on Georgia and, like all the things
that she did, the first seasonwas focused on Ginny.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Yeah, I did like it, I did.
It seems like it's more Georgiafocused again.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I think that there's some really big hard topics that
they are that come up yeah,that I'm glad that they're
talking about.
There's something that happens.
That's a big thing that I'm notgoing to tell you, and I feel
like the way they handled it wasreally good.
Um, however, I feel likethere's a big piece that they
completely missed, and we'lltalk about that.
When you get that far, yeah,you'll know what I'm talking
(22:55):
about.
um, so I was a littledisappointed in in that,
especially like education forteenagers yeah um, but I really
like how this season like I feellike last season it was just
kind of showcasing Georgia andall the bad that she did and how
much harm it was causing herfamily.
And I feel like this seasonit's really showcasing how much
(23:18):
she cares about her family andhow families come together to
support each other in hard times.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Her intention, in my view, has always been good.
Yes, she's always had goodintentions with every decision
that she's made.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
And not making excuses for her, but she was
like 15 when she became a mom,exactly, and so she always was,
maybe in her eyes, trying to dowhat she thought was the best
thing, right, but has definitelylearned along the way and
questioned some of her decisions, and I think that's eye-opening
and like good that they'respotlighting that yeah, no, I
(23:51):
agree, I agree.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I'll be interested to finish it.
Um, you know, what I've beeninto is the documentaries that
have come out about the titansubmersible.
Is this like a history thing?
Speaker 1 (24:01):
it's from two years ago okay, it's oh submersible
that went underwater to go lookat the Titanic and imploded.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
So I know HBO has a documentary and Netflix has a
documentary.
I think Peacock might have onetoo.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
What are you watching it on?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Netflix there's two different documentaries that
I've seen so far.
I think there's a third one.
So the HBO one is more aboutthe actual crash and everything
that led up to that, whereas theNetflix one is a really good
backstory of how the companybecame, how they became, and
it's not a good company, not agood look.
Everybody in that company knewthis submersible was not safe,
(24:39):
but this guy was they tookeveryone's money he was a greedy
millionaire yeah, he thought hehad disposable money, like
family wealth, all these things.
He didn't care what anybody saidand he was like I'm just gonna
do it, but he didn't get on thething.
Yeah, he died.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Oh, he did die on it oh, I don't know much about it
was a playstation controlleryeah, I heard that, yeah, yeah
no, he got on it.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Um, and in one of the documentaries in the netflix
one when they did a test run,you could physically hear,
because it's made out of carbonfiber.
You can physically hear itcracking and expanding because
it's not meant to go that deep,yeah, yeah that much pressure
and everything and he's like, oh, it's fine, it's fine, no big
deal.
There was a huge crack in it atone point and they put a
(25:21):
band-aid on it and I think oneof the next underwater missions
they did it exploded why wouldyou sign up to go on that?
Speaker 1 (25:28):
did they disclose any of that?
Or did anyone do any research?
They're just like, oh, this isa great thing, so only he knew
it, but he still got on there hewould.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
He would fire people and then, when they tried to sue
, he would counter sue, and itcame into this whole issue.
Okay, so interesting thenetflix one was really
interesting, so that's, that waswhat I was watching mackie is
watching prison break oh, I'venever seen it.
You never watched it, super oldthrowback.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
So, uh, deacon and I watched it when it was like on
tv, and then mackie had wantedto watch it again because he was
seeing reels on like tiktok andI'm like, oh yeah, I saw that.
So he's like, will you watch itwith me?
So that's kind of been our show.
No, we're still watching dexterand we are on.
So here's the thing that I'mmad about dexter and dexter's an
old show, so this is not anyspoilers for most of the world
(26:16):
no, but mackie tells me thingslike oh, trinity kills rita why
would you tell me that?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
he told you that, yes , I know she's gonna die and
she's not dead yet.
One of the biggest spoilers,yes, and I will say the Trinity
killer is one of the bestcharacters I've ever seen.
He's from the third rock guy.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
He's the third rock guy.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
John Lifkow.
He is so good in that season.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
So the last episode that we watched, he killed.
Well, two episodes ago hekilled Lundy and shot Deborah
Yep and Deborah's.
Back on the force.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Now I cannot, and dexter's like befriending
trinity trying to get close tohim and now he's.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I know he's gonna kill rita and I'm pissed.
Hey mom, do you know thattrinity kills?
rita, fuck you why that is oneof the biggest spoilers of any
show ever oh, he also told mehey, mom, you know, um, he said
something about, oh, you knowthe ice.
The ice truck killer isDexter's brother.
He told me that before theywhat the I know?
I'm like why do you even wantto watch these shows?
(27:14):
Why are you watching it?
If you're going to watch allthe spoilers on TikTok, yeah.
If you already know whathappens, why are you watching it
?
That's so lame.
And then he falls asleep duringhalf of it.
So, like on the Walking Dead,I'll dead.
I'll ask him questions like ohhey, what's going on?
Blah, blah.
Like what's that guy's name?
I'm like, let me go on tiktokand find out.
Why do you even watch it if youjust sleep through it?
Because, oh, you've seen allthe highlights on tiktok, got it
(27:37):
?
Speaker 2 (27:37):
not how to watch a show is that what they do these
days?
Speaker 1 (27:40):
is that how they watch shows?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
I guess, oh, I need to watch.
What are you watching?
Prison break on netflix,netflix on netflix, okay.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
So also here's another worrisome thing about
mccoy.
Since he's not being on thepodcast, I'm just gonna rat him
out on all of his shit.
He's not gonna hear it.
So, ginny and georgia yep.
So he's asking me this isn't aspoiler why is?
Why is georgia on trial?
And I said she's on trial formurder?
And he goes well, who did shekill and why?
And I said, well, she's introuble because she's on trial
(28:08):
for killing this guy who was onhospice and he was gonna die
anyway, and she, kind of likeput him out of his misery
because the wife begged yeah,yeah, right, and she asked, and
that whatever I kind of leftthat part all out, but anyway,
um he go.
This is what he said mom, whydoesn't she just admit she did
it?
It's only first degree murderand she'll get like 12 years on
(28:29):
good behavior uh, wrong, why?
Speaker 2 (28:32):
why would you say that?
Also, you're gonna have aconviction on your record for
the rest of your life and you'renot gonna be able to do
anything.
Also, 12 years for first degree.
I want to know where you'regetting that right where are?
You getting these stats,usually 25?
No, that's first degree murder.
Where are you getting your info?
And I'm kind of scared I knowme too.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
I mean, I was also telling him about one of our
friend's friend, yep, who foundout she was pregnant.
Yep, 18 weeks along and youknow what he said to me mom,
that's too late for plan b.
How do you know what plan B is?
I know, I'm worried.
I'm worried about him.
I'm like plan B is actuallyplan Z, yep, because last resort
(29:16):
, you protect you, she protectsshe and you protect each other,
yeah, and you protect each other, and if somebody is not
protecting themselves, it's a nogo.
Yep, oh my God, I know I'mscared.
I'm scared for my future, areyou?
Speaker 2 (29:30):
reading.
What am I reading?
Oh, I just looked it up.
Hold on, let me see.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Well, I'll tell you what.
I just finished this book.
So one of my favorite authors,also from minnesota, lucinda
berry oh my god, she's the bestshe now.
I might not be 100 on this, butmy gist of her is that she
worked in child psychology,something like that, something
in that field, and so a lot ofher books are loosely over
(29:56):
dramatic interpretations, overdramatized situations that she
maybe saw in her line of work.
Yep, so this book that I justfinished is about a boy in high
school who is a pedophile, whoknows that he ends up like this
(30:17):
is not a spoiler he touches somegirls.
He's really avid like swimmer.
He over the summer teaches,like peewee, swimming.
There's some young girls in hisswim class.
He ends up touching them.
There's no penetration, nothinglike that.
It's more of like a rubbing upon situation, and I'm not trying
to say that that's not thatthat's right, but anyway he
feels super guilty about it andhe ends up like confiding in his
(30:40):
mom about it.
So they end up telling thegirl's parents what happened,
hoping that they'll just behappy that they, you know, told
them and they're not.
He's not, he's not gonna, he'snot gonna teach anymore,
whatever, whatever.
Well, whatever, he ends uphaving to like right, go to like
lock up juvie, whatever, and dothis like program, whatever,
(31:01):
and it just goes through whatthat family, the backlash of
what that family, deals with,the struggle that this boy has
of having pedophilia and notwanting to have pedophilia.
And it's just nuts, it's mine,it's mind blowing.
It's a really fast read,actually not that long the, the
audiobook's, not long either.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
when I picked it up last night I was like this is
not even.
I don't even think it's 300pages, yeah, but what's?
Speaker 1 (31:28):
good about it is it covers all the details.
You have no questions at theend.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
She's such a good writer.
I've never read a bad book fromher.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
She's low key like Frida McFadden.
If you like Frida McFadden, Ithink.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
I get better.
I like Frida.
If you can handle, but a lot ofit is like childhood trauma
it's the one, it's the blackcover with the pink balloon and
then like yes, yes, I haven'tread that one yet yes, and right
now I'm reading by, becauseonce I finished saving noah, I
just was, there was a big.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
I talked about this.
Uh, there was a huge, audiblesale and like there was a ton of
frida books, lucinda berrybooks, somebody else, uh,
natasha preston, she's anothergood author and they were all
like three dollars so I bought abunch.
So I was like, oh, I'm justgonna, now I'm on to phantom
limb is the book I'm reading now, and that is also lucinda berry
is it?
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I've never heard of that one yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
So it's about, uh, twin girls who were abused when
they were younger and kind oflike how they're dealing with it
now and then something Ihaven't got very far something
bad really happens.
I think it says in the synopsissynopsis one of the girls dies
and then it kind of startsdragging up the past.
The other one kind of has to gothrough whatever she came out
(32:43):
with a new book recently.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
I bought it.
I haven't read it yet, but I'venever read anything bad by her.
No, so good.
Yeah, um, I'm currently reading, so I started this.
It's a series this is the firstbook in this series called
vanishing girls by lisa reagan,and it's a detective jos.
This is the first book in thisseries called Vanishing Girls by
Lisa Reagan and it's aDetective Josie Quinn series.
That's the first book in theseries.
(33:04):
It's super easy read, justsomething quick.
I really like that the chaptersare short, so it just kind of
keeps the flow going.
So Josie Quinn is a detectiveIn this book.
She is currently suspended fromthe force and she happens to be
a witness to this accident.
And the person that survivesthe accident says a woman's name
.
She's like who is this?
I can't figure this out, kindof thing.
(33:24):
But it turns out that the guywho survives the accident has
connections to a girl that's alocal girl that's missing.
It's a small town inpennsylvania and it's just all
of these pieces are tyingtogether and she finds that you
know his niece.
Niece used to be the guy thatsurvived the accident.
His niece was captive.
She was held captive for a yearshe came out and ended up
(33:45):
killing a nurse in a nursinghome because she's so possessed
from the trauma she experiencedand things like that.
And so it's kind of going inand out of all of that stuff.
And I got just into a point I'mhalfway through it where her
fiance, who is a state trooper,got shot and might die, like it
just keeps going.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
You want to keep reading it?
Speaker 2 (34:06):
There's so many different twists and turns and
you're not sitting there readinga chapter for-.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I hate that when you're like looking like oh my
God, how many pages are left inthis chapter.
I hate that.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
When you're like looking like oh my God, how many
pages are left in this chapter.
I hate that, like I loveChristian Hanna books.
They're one of my favorite.
She's one of my favoriteauthors.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Historical fiction.
I can't do it.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
I love her books but again, her chapters are really
long and like.
So I have to be in the mentalheadspace.
If I want a quick, good, easyread, that's that, that, frida,
I'll do, or something like that.
Like, if I need to get out of areading slump, easy, quick
reads and it's like, oh yeah,this is why I love reading.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
Yeah, I do that sometimes if I read like a book
that I would really struggle toget through.
Then I'll be my instant go tois a Frida or a Lucinda Berry?
Speaker 2 (34:48):
or a Colleen Hoover.
I hate to be that trendy person, but I love her books.
I haven't read any of her newones.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Recently I read this book, that she wrote my most
recent book, that it was a whileback, but it's called hopeless.
Yep, I have that one, so goodis it so good.
That's why I've never read abad book, so I named my chickens
hope and sky from hopelessheartbones is such a good, oh
yeah, I read that too, yeah I?
Speaker 2 (35:13):
I think I did.
I don't dislike her books atall.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Layla was hard for me .
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Yeah, I couldn't get into it, so I need to pick it
back up because I know that it'sdifferent from what she
normally writes, and that's hardfor me when I have such a
preconceived like this is howher writing is, and then to
shift it, kind of weird to me.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
Yeah, that's the only .
I mean mean I read that bookand it was fine, but it was the
only book where I was like whatthe fuck am I reading?
And sometimes of hers, yeah,and like sometimes like on my
facebook, like things will popup from like thriller groups,
and somebody just recently wasright, this is the best colleen
hoover book I've read.
And I was like you're on, Ididn't say anything because I'm

life, but I either need you totalk louder or I've got to
figure out my system.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I think you're the first person that's ever said
that, to me too.

Welcome to the show I've got tofigure it out.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Maybe it'd help if I turned your mic on.
Welcome to the show.
We got it figured out.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Thank you.
Thank you, however, you wereloud enough that I could pick up
on you on my own microphone, sothere's that.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I mean yeah, I mean Patrick always said I was his
favorite friend because he couldalways hear me.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
It will be definitely a good thing.
As we age, I won't have to belike what I can always hear me.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
You can always hear me when we're old ladies on the
porch, there we go.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
So today we're going to talk about the mini state
fair, and it did happen about amonth ago, but you know life,
here we are.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
It doesn't matter.
State fair is state fair.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
And we're still looking forward to the state
fair coming up in Two months.
Two months, who's counting?
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Not me 52 days.
I Not me because I don't have awhole week off around that time
frame and you don't either.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Me either.
Not at all.
Who would plan their vacationaround the state fair Minor?
All right, so some highlights.
First of all, let's talk aboutif you haven't been to the mini
state fair or you're such adedicated listener that you
listen to this show unlike Emily, in a different state and
you're not familiar.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
I deserve it.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
We're going gonna tell you a little bit about it.
So one thing that usminnesotans pride ourself on is
that we have the second largeststate fair in the country.
Texas is first.
Texas was first.
And bigfoot bob told me,because he lives in texas and
he's my other guest co-host,that we're their state.
Because I'm like, oh, I kind ofthat'd be a really great excuse
to go to Texas, to go to thatstate fair.
And I happen to know somebodywho lives there.
(01:49):
But he told me it's in a reallysketchy part of the state
Really, where a lot of bad shithappens, interesting.
And he said, like you have tokind of be on your A game and be
watching out.
There's a lot of like theft.
We to be watching out, there'sa lot of like theft.
We do not have that problem atall.
I mean, I have heard of storiesof last year.
For example, there were peoplethrowing firearms over the fence
at night.
(02:10):
Um, but I feel like we'reusually out of there by 10
o'clock at night and lately,I've never seen any any of that,
but um, anyway, I don't know ifit's because we are just live
in oblivion or we're just sohigh on sugar that we can't tell
Both.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
I mean, I think we're in a carb coma and people
watching, you know, has hasreally made us not pay attention
to reality because the peoplewatching at any state fair event
is Primo Amazing.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
So yeah, so the mini state fair.
Anyway, every state has a statefair, and if you don't have a
state fair, I'm so sorry, don'tcome to ours, it's already too
busy.
I used to really worry aboutwanting people to come to the
fair, so it never ended.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
But it's out of control.
Social media has made it threetimes the size.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yeah, Search it up on your TikTok and you'll find out
how great it is.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
So many things, but don great it is so many.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But don't come because we already can't move
it's.
We're packed in like sardines.
So, highlights of the statefair mini state fair, our food.
What did we eat, emily, at themini state?
Speaker 2 (03:11):
fair um.
We had don't worry, I wrote itdown I'm trying to remember
exactly we shared cheese curdsfrom mouth trap from mouth trap,
which are the best cheese curdsfor sure, and this year you
actually got to go into the foodbuilding to pick them up, which
in years past you couldn't.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah Also no, have they ever even had Mouth Trap at
the mini fair.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
This was the first year they even had that they did
it at the drive-thru duringCOVID, but maybe not during the
mini.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
This might have been the first one during the mini.
The mini keeps expanding everyyear a little bit, yeah well,
the vendors do the space.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Doesn't have you noticed that it's been in the
same area each year?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
well, I feel like when we were at mouth trap, like
that little area was openbuilding.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Yeah and yeah, and it hasn't been open before the um
sky sky ride, the one that spinsaround like the seattle.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Oh, was that open it wasn't open, but it was right
there yeah, yeah, yeah, and Ifeel like that's new space that
they used to have taped off.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah what was the first thing?
We had mini apple pie, that's.
How can you forget?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
that cinnamon ice cream the best.
If you make ice cream Kemps,breyers, ben and Jerry ever, why
don't you make Cinnamon?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
ice cream, it's so good, it's so good.
And with a warm Slice of applepie.
Nothing better so good.
Nothing better so fucking good.
Oh.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
And we shared it.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Because I mean, we wanted To pace ourselves.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Because we wanted To fit a lot in.
Yeah, yeah, but you can easilyConsume that by yourself.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
It is, if people remember the caramel apple
empanada from Taco Bell, whichis one of my favorite things,
that they brought back for a dayand then got rid of again.
It's very similar in size andtaste to that, but I think this
is better.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
It's better.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I don't like that Taco Bell empanada and I am a
Taco Bell fan oh, it's one of myfavorite things, I miss it.
I'm a Taco Bell fan oh, it'sone of my favorite things, I
miss it.
And then we had food wise, Idon't think we had much after
that Tot Boss.
We had Tot Boss and I wantedwontons.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
But the wontons were sold out by three o'clock.
Everything at that food truck.
What is that food truck called?
It's Cuvette.
Oh yeah, cuvette, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Something, yeah, yeah , something, yeah, um, they had
every as wendy would say, asianinvasion.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
She would, she would.
She said that again today andI'm like you can't say that it's
offensive, poor wendy.
I'm like it's asian innovation.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yes, yeah, innovation oh my god, um yeah, by three
o'clock on sunday, a lot ofthings were sold out when it was
open till seven yeah, and whenwe went to al's malts, the only
thing they had left waschocolate yeah, and I didn't
know you could still get caramelno, didn't know that either.
It'd be nice if they told usthat it looked like it was just
chocolate and that you're likeit's two dollars more.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
I'm like I don't care , I'm at the fair.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
It's delicious, the amount of money I spend at these
things.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I don't, I don't count, I don't count, um.
So yeah, and then we had, so wehad them all that was all we
had to eat.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah, we didn't have.
And then we only had a fewdrinks.
We had that slushy when theband, the unicorn band, played.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Oh that unicorn band was good.
They were really good.
That Bruno Mars mashup was goodand I got a unicorn tattoo.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
That's right.
That was at Dino's yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
That's a really great place for live music.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
I've never hung out there for live music before.
It's always been Famous, dave's, really.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, even at the regular.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
State Fair.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Yeah, oh, I've had some really great times at that
Dino's.
They always have like goodcover bands.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Yeah, I've never.
I've only done the FamousDave's one a few times and that
was it.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
And then we had we went good, and then you had a
grape, grape, ape grape, yeah,yeah, yeah, that's good, and
then, and I'm, actually not afan of grape flavor, but that
grape is good every year.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
It's good they have it at the twin stadium in the um
drink coolers and you can getit in cans yeah, what brewery
makes that?
Speaker 1 (06:59):
uh, lift bridge.
Okay, that's what I thought,that's good.
Yeah, so they make the bomb poptoo.
Yeah, the bomb.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
And they have, and they had that in the cans too at
the Twins game the other week.
It was actually kind of cool.
I kind of like that you can goin a cooler and pick out
whatever you want and theoptions are endless.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Yeah, I really like going to Saints games.
For the food in the they havelike that craft beer area.
Snuffy's Malt there they'regetting fun.
I mean they're fun, but I, Ilove a good twins game, but I
prefer saints games.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yeah, same same and it's cheaper.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah, I think.
Yeah, it's funner, it's in acooler area I mean, I work two
blocks from there from thesaints game yeah, you could just
go after work a lot walk downthere yeah, scooter and get a
lime, scooter and just cruise ondown, I work in kind of a
sketch area.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
my office is next to a methadone clinic, the St Paul
Police Department and a doggiedaycare.
All three out of the fourcorners.
You're a brave girl.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I'm too much of a wuss.
I like to act tough, but I'mnot.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I'm so used to it.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
now my mouth is tough , my body is not, your brain is
like no, what did you just say?
Can you back that shit up?
So while we were having somedrinks at the ballpark cafe, for
the first time ever, I saw alady drinking and breastfeeding
at the same time.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
And it wasn't just one drink either.
It was a tall 16 ounce beer asshe was breastfeeding and then
took two more to go, and sheclearly had to feed her kid
later, so I don't know that sheyeah, she left the left, the
ballpark cafe, with two drinksin her herself in her um
(08:35):
stroller it was the giant wagonstroller thing and watching them
try to maneuver to get in thereand then like the way that they
took up space for their familyand then, like some other people
, tried to sit there and thedirty looks they gave.
I'm like we're in a tight area.
You cannot take up four tablesfor your family of like five,
(08:56):
and how do you judge when you'redrinking a beer and
breastfeeding your baby?
I like to say no offense to ourWisconsin listeners, but I like
to say that they're probablyfrom Wisconsin because I don't
think anybody in Minnesota woulddo that.
But that's just me beingprotective of Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
So I did go to work and ask about this because I was
really on my mind and they didsay like actually, they tell you
like if you're gonna breastfeedit's because of the time lapse
of the alcohol getting into yoursystem getting into the breast
milk Like it's better to drinkand breastfeed, but then you
have to wait like X amount oftime after that.
(09:32):
But that was my concern is Idon't think she was.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
The optics weren't good.
At the end of the day, theoptics weren't great, and
whether that was her first drinkor not, I'm going to be judgy.
I don't think it was?
Speaker 1 (09:45):
I don't think it was I don't think it was so.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Especially for how fast she was drinking them she
finished the 16 ounce before wefinished one 12 ounce oh yeah we
just easily easily so that wasprobably the oh and then.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
The other crazy thing has happened is you were
shopping and then you droppedthat glass first and where I
thought I lost my car yeah andthen we lost your car.
Oh, to be fair, when you getthere and you park, they just
shove you in and it looks sodifferent.
Right, it's not full and thenit's full when you leave.
Yeah, there's no like distinctparking lines nope, nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
And I was convinced that we did not park in the dirt
.
I vividly remember parking onasphalt.
That's what I was like.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
We don't need to look in the dirt, we don't need to
look when I called you and Ifound the car, you're like is it
in the trees?
I'm like it is, and you're likeI don't need to look.
When I called you and I foundthe car, you're like is it in
the trees?
And I'm like it is, and you'relike.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I don't remember that at all and normally I have like
a really good memory, like Ihave a sense of direction, like
my dad, where I can rememberthose types of things.
Nope, heck.
I parked at the airport andknew exactly four days later
where my car was in.
When I went to Arizona in April, knew exactly where my car was
without taking a picture, couldn, couldn't find this one.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I'm terrible.
I lose my car all the time.
I lose my car at Target, I losemy car wherever I am.
I'm just so excited that, like,whatever, like, I'm excited to
be at the mini state fair, soI'm not even paying attention to
parking.
I'm thinking about mini applepie.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Yes, I was like we're just going because we usually
get there right when it opens,and we stayed until what?
Five this time.
So we were there pretty longtime.
And then it's one thing.
It's something we have doneevery year since it started for
your birthday, and I love that.
For the first few years no oneknew about it.
They were like what do you mean?
You're going to?
What state fair, the greatestthing ever, you what?
(11:28):
I don't know what you'retalking about.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
And now this year was the busiest well, every time
it's busiest every time Justlike the numbers for the real
estate fair every year it's likeyou're there on the busiest day
.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, that's true.

fair because everyone waswearing wolf gear.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Oh, every last year too, there was all bring your
ass, bring your ass, bring yourass.
Shirts everywhere, yes, um, butthis year it was just everybody
was wearing wolves gear and itwas.
I mean, I have never been a bigbasketball fan.
The last couple of years,though, I've really gotten into
it, and I think part of it isbecause the wolves have been so
fun to watch you went to moregames this year than I did.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I didn't't go to any.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I went to two, and both of them I brought my nephew
with me.
So yeah first one was like agift to him.
Second one was he got the giftfor Christmas.
Oh, and he picked you.
Well, you were defaulted.
Well, when Nicole bought theticket, she's like I think we
have something else going onthat day.
Can you take Gabe?
And I was like sure, can, can.
And he told me he's like it'smore fun with you.
(13:16):
Anyway, I was like okay, soundsgood well, that's heartwarming.
Speaker 1 (13:20):

Thank you.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
I'd rather watch it front row at TV.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
On TV at home.
Without a bra on sweats and at-shirt, and maybe a glass of
wine in my hand.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
And no line for the pisser.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Correct, unless my cat's guarding my toilet.
But you can pause it, that'strue.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
That's true so my bet ?
Oh so at the state fair shouldwe do some shopping and they
have had way more vendors thisyear, which was exciting, was so
fun this year.
So fun, I okay.
So first of all, we always getwell, not not always Two years
in a row.
Two years in a row, I got apermanent bracelet, yep, and so
I.
And the first time I ever gotone, mine fell off at like nine
(14:21):
months.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
That was at the county fair.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Mine stayed on, but it tarnished really bad, and so
then last year we got one and weboth still had it on.
And then this year we gotanother one added and that was
really cool.
They wanted to take picturesbecause we still had the other
one, and the quality is stillthere.
And we were even selling peoplebecause we're like oh yeah, we
got this one last year and it'sstill great.
And they're like can we see it?
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Can't even tell it's been worn and stuff.
I thought I was going to haveto cut it off back in December
when I had a procedure done, soI was a little nervous.
I'm like I can't get rid of it.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
They don't make you.
Yeah, some stuff they're prettycool about now.
And then I saw this shirt thatI had to have.
It was a chicken sweatshirt.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
It had little chickens all over it.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
I'll post a picture for you on my social media.
And anyway, I was like, lookingat it, I'd already spent the
money on the bracelet, kind oflike try to have a budget of
like $100.
The bracelet was 70, to be fair.
We didn't eat much.
We did share a lot, yes and um.

to buy this and leave.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
I need to walk away right now.
It was funny because there wassome other girls in there and I
heard like their guys that werewith them, like they came out
first and they're like what didyou break in there?
And they're like it wasn't us,wasn't us.
And I just came out, I'm likeit was us.
And then I could tell they werelike a little embarrassed, like
because they didn't think thatI could hear them say that no, I
will admit it, I was mortifiedand I think I was more mortified
because the guy was rude aboutit.
(18:39):
Like accidents happen are yougonna go back in there and the
real estate fair?
Speaker 2 (18:44):
yeah, I'll go back in there, yeah, and I might buy a
wine glass I might.
I did like it.
I want.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
It was a new pattern I was showing you, I know I know
, I, I remember, I rememberseeing it on the floor.
I know I was like look, it's socute.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Crash.
Oh god, I can't.
Oh, I was like you know what ithappens.
It was twelve dollars.
You know what it happens it was$12.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
You know what it's making me laugh, so that's good.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
I'm laughing at it now.
I know, yeah, you weren't.
I was like we're never talkingabout that again.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Then you just want to go home, and then you can't
find your car.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
I couldn't find my car for 20 minutes.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
It wasn't even like five minutes, it was a long time
.
And then you can telleveryone's like, oh, they don't
know where they parked, okaythere was another guy that was
lost too.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Him and I were going trading aisles up and down.
I could tell that we were justtrading aisles up and down and
I'm like I don't know where itis.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
I just think it's funny that where we really
thought it was was nowhere nearthere.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
It's not like my car is hard to find either.
It's bright blue yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
You would.
You would be surprised how manybright blue cars there are when
you're looking for that's truenatalie.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
When she was little, she'd see a bright blue suv on
the road and go oh there's emmy.
She's like not even close, nother, not even close.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Well, that was me too , like when you first got that
car.
It was the only bright blue carI ever saw.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Now, you see them everywhere.
Yeah, true all right.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
What's on your radar?
What are you reading?
What are you watching?
What are you into?
Speaker 2 (20:08):
well, I'm gonna watch the final basketball game which
is tonight.
I mean, I'm for okc, so you arefor the thunder yeah, I don't
like indiana.
Why I've never liked indiana?
Speaker 1 (20:18):
why you can't just not like something without a
reason, the only reason I likeokc, sga, that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Okay, like SGA.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Chet Holmgren is from Minnehaha Academy.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Yes, there is a lot of Minnesota connections,
halliburton's dad, that wholesituation, tyrese Halliburton's
dad and how they handle thatwhole situation did not sit well
with me at all.
So the situation if you don'twatch basketball is that the dad
is crazy and he overstepped alot of boundaries and they don't
let him come to any games otherthan home games yeah, but he
(20:52):
got so aggressive towardsanother team and the fact that
they like didn't suspend himjust for the rest of the season
across all games, kind of Idon't know, it just didn't.
Like I'm all gave you the ick.
It did, it gave me the ick.
Like I'm all for supportingyour child, like I've been to so
many kids' sporting events.
They get nasty, the parents,the parents get so nasty and to
(21:12):
me it's like that's not whatit's about.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
It's about enjoying it Is it, though, when it's,
this is their career, this ishow they make money.
Kids, it should be fun teachinga lot of things.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
It's the player's career, but career but not the
parents career maybe it is hiscareer maybe maybe his income
depends on his kid that thatthen you still got to sit down
and shut up and be respectful,like that's my thing, like I'm
just trying to get you fired, Iappreciate it, but I'm like no,
that is so.
It just gave me the ick, so Iand I like, I like the ties that
(21:43):
sga has with his cousin inminnesota and everything like it
.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Just, I, just, just, I, just it's like a mini Kelsey
brother situation yeah, a littlebit, but cousins, in basketball
.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Yeah, um, so that I plan on watching and then
started the new season of Ginnyand Georgia only through episode
one.
You're further along than I am.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I only have one episode left.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I've heard it's really good this year, did you
like last?
Speaker 1 (22:08):
season.
I'm gonna try to not have oneepisode left.
I've heard it's really goodthis year, did you like last
season?
I'm going to try to not haveany spoilers here because I know
you haven't watched.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
it had to remember, really, when I watched the first
episode of the season, of likewhat happened, because it's been
so long.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
It really focused on Georgia and, like all the things
that she did, the first seasonwas focused on Ginny.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Yeah, I did like it, I did.
It seems like it's more Georgiafocused again.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I think that there's some really big hard topics that
they are that come up yeah,that I'm glad that they're
talking about.
There's something that happens.
That's a big thing that I'm notgoing to tell you, and I feel
like the way they handled it wasreally good.
Um, however, I feel likethere's a big piece that they
completely missed, and we'lltalk about that.
When you get that far, yeah,you'll know what I'm talking
(22:55):
about.
um, so I was a littledisappointed in in that,
especially like education forteenagers yeah um, but I really
like how this season like I feellike last season it was just
kind of showcasing Georgia andall the bad that she did and how
much harm it was causing herfamily.
And I feel like this seasonit's really showcasing how much
(23:18):
she cares about her family andhow families come together to
support each other in hard times.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Her intention, in my view, has always been good.
Yes, she's always had goodintentions with every decision
that she's made.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
And not making excuses for her, but she was
like 15 when she became a mom,exactly, and so she always was,
maybe in her eyes, trying to dowhat she thought was the best
thing, right, but has definitelylearned along the way and
questioned some of her decisions, and I think that's eye-opening
and like good that they'respotlighting that yeah, no, I
(23:51):
agree, I agree.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I'll be interested to finish it.
Um, you know, what I've beeninto is the documentaries that
have come out about the titansubmersible.
Is this like a history thing?
Speaker 1 (24:01):
it's from two years ago okay, it's oh submersible
that went underwater to go lookat the Titanic and imploded.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
So I know HBO has a documentary and Netflix has a
documentary.
I think Peacock might have onetoo.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
What are you watching it on?
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Netflix there's two different documentaries that
I've seen so far.
I think there's a third one.
So the HBO one is more aboutthe actual crash and everything
that led up to that, whereas theNetflix one is a really good
backstory of how the companybecame, how they became, and
it's not a good company, not agood look.
Everybody in that company knewthis submersible was not safe,
(24:39):
but this guy was they tookeveryone's money he was a greedy
millionaire yeah, he thought hehad disposable money, like
family wealth, all these things.
He didn't care what anybody saidand he was like I'm just gonna
do it, but he didn't get on thething.
Yeah, he died.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Oh, he did die on it oh, I don't know much about it
was a playstation controlleryeah, I heard that, yeah, yeah
no, he got on it.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Um, and in one of the documentaries in the netflix
one when they did a test run,you could physically hear,
because it's made out of carbonfiber.
You can physically hear itcracking and expanding because
it's not meant to go that deep,yeah, yeah that much pressure
and everything and he's like, oh, it's fine, it's fine, no big
deal.
There was a huge crack in it atone point and they put a
(25:21):
band-aid on it and I think oneof the next underwater missions
they did it exploded why wouldyou sign up to go on that?
Speaker 1 (25:28):
did they disclose any of that?
Or did anyone do any research?
They're just like, oh, this isa great thing, so only he knew
it, but he still got on there hewould.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
He would fire people and then, when they tried to sue
, he would counter sue, and itcame into this whole issue.
Okay, so interesting thenetflix one was really
interesting, so that's, that waswhat I was watching mackie is
watching prison break oh, I'venever seen it.
You never watched it, super oldthrowback.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
So, uh, deacon and I watched it when it was like on
tv, and then mackie had wantedto watch it again because he was
seeing reels on like tiktok andI'm like, oh yeah, I saw that.
So he's like, will you watch itwith me?
So that's kind of been our show.
No, we're still watching dexterand we are on.
So here's the thing that I'mmad about dexter and dexter's an
old show, so this is not anyspoilers for most of the world
(26:16):
no, but mackie tells me thingslike oh, trinity kills rita why
would you tell me that?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
he told you that, yes , I know she's gonna die and
she's not dead yet.
One of the biggest spoilers,yes, and I will say the Trinity
killer is one of the bestcharacters I've ever seen.
He's from the third rock guy.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
He's the third rock guy.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
John Lifkow.
He is so good in that season.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
So the last episode that we watched, he killed.
Well, two episodes ago hekilled Lundy and shot Deborah
Yep and Deborah's.
Back on the force.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Now I cannot, and dexter's like befriending
trinity trying to get close tohim and now he's.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I know he's gonna kill rita and I'm pissed.
Hey mom, do you know thattrinity kills?
rita, fuck you why that is oneof the biggest spoilers of any
show ever oh, he also told mehey, mom, you know, um, he said
something about, oh, you knowthe ice.
The ice truck killer isDexter's brother.
He told me that before theywhat the I know?
I'm like why do you even wantto watch these shows?
(27:14):
Why are you watching it?
If you're going to watch allthe spoilers on TikTok, yeah.
If you already know whathappens, why are you watching it
?
That's so lame.
And then he falls asleep duringhalf of it.
So, like on the Walking Dead,I'll dead.
I'll ask him questions like ohhey, what's going on?
Blah, blah.
Like what's that guy's name?
I'm like, let me go on tiktokand find out.
Why do you even watch it if youjust sleep through it?
Because, oh, you've seen allthe highlights on tiktok, got it
(27:37):
?
Speaker 2 (27:37):
not how to watch a show is that what they do these
days?
Speaker 1 (27:40):
is that how they watch shows?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
I guess, oh, I need to watch.
What are you watching?
Prison break on netflix,netflix on netflix, okay.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
So also here's another worrisome thing about
mccoy.
Since he's not being on thepodcast, I'm just gonna rat him
out on all of his shit.
He's not gonna hear it.
So, ginny and georgia yep.
So he's asking me this isn't aspoiler why is?
Why is georgia on trial?
And I said she's on trial formurder?
And he goes well, who did shekill and why?
And I said, well, she's introuble because she's on trial
(28:08):
for killing this guy who was onhospice and he was gonna die
anyway, and she, kind of likeput him out of his misery
because the wife begged yeah,yeah, right, and she asked, and
that whatever I kind of leftthat part all out, but anyway,
um he go.
This is what he said mom, whydoesn't she just admit she did
it?
It's only first degree murderand she'll get like 12 years on
(28:29):
good behavior uh, wrong, why?
Speaker 2 (28:32):
why would you say that?
Also, you're gonna have aconviction on your record for
the rest of your life and you'renot gonna be able to do
anything.
Also, 12 years for first degree.
I want to know where you'regetting that right where are?
You getting these stats,usually 25?
No, that's first degree murder.
Where are you getting your info?
And I'm kind of scared I knowme too.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
I mean, I was also telling him about one of our
friend's friend, yep, who foundout she was pregnant.
Yep, 18 weeks along and youknow what he said to me mom,
that's too late for plan b.
How do you know what plan B is?
I know, I'm worried.
I'm worried about him.
I'm like plan B is actuallyplan Z, yep, because last resort
(29:16):
, you protect you, she protectsshe and you protect each other,
yeah, and you protect each other, and if somebody is not
protecting themselves, it's a nogo.
Yep, oh my God, I know I'mscared.
I'm scared for my future, areyou?
Speaker 2 (29:30):
reading.
What am I reading?
Oh, I just looked it up.
Hold on, let me see.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Well, I'll tell you what.
I just finished this book.
So one of my favorite authors,also from minnesota, lucinda
berry oh my god, she's the bestshe now.
I might not be 100 on this, butmy gist of her is that she
worked in child psychology,something like that, something
in that field, and so a lot ofher books are loosely over
(29:56):
dramatic interpretations, overdramatized situations that she
maybe saw in her line of work.
Yep, so this book that I justfinished is about a boy in high
school who is a pedophile, whoknows that he ends up like this
(30:17):
is not a spoiler he touches somegirls.
He's really avid like swimmer.
He over the summer teaches,like peewee, swimming.
There's some young girls in hisswim class.
He ends up touching them.
There's no penetration, nothinglike that.
It's more of like a rubbing upon situation, and I'm not trying
to say that that's not thatthat's right, but anyway he
feels super guilty about it andhe ends up like confiding in his
(30:40):
mom about it.
So they end up telling thegirl's parents what happened,
hoping that they'll just behappy that they, you know, told
them and they're not.
He's not, he's not gonna, he'snot gonna teach anymore,
whatever, whatever.
Well, whatever, he ends uphaving to like right, go to like
lock up juvie, whatever, and dothis like program, whatever,
(31:01):
and it just goes through whatthat family, the backlash of
what that family, deals with,the struggle that this boy has
of having pedophilia and notwanting to have pedophilia.
And it's just nuts, it's mine,it's mind blowing.
It's a really fast read,actually not that long the, the
audiobook's, not long either.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
when I picked it up last night I was like this is
not even.
I don't even think it's 300pages, yeah, but what's?
Speaker 1 (31:28):
good about it is it covers all the details.
You have no questions at theend.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
She's such a good writer.
I've never read a bad book fromher.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
She's low key like Frida McFadden.
If you like Frida McFadden, Ithink.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
I get better.
I like Frida.
If you can handle, but a lot ofit is like childhood trauma
it's the one, it's the blackcover with the pink balloon and
then like yes, yes, I haven'tread that one yet yes, and right
now I'm reading by, becauseonce I finished saving noah, I
just was, there was a big.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
I talked about this.
Uh, there was a huge, audiblesale and like there was a ton of
frida books, lucinda berrybooks, somebody else, uh,
natasha preston, she's anothergood author and they were all
like three dollars so I bought abunch.
So I was like, oh, I'm justgonna, now I'm on to phantom
limb is the book I'm reading now, and that is also lucinda berry
is it?
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I've never heard of that one yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
So it's about, uh, twin girls who were abused when
they were younger and kind oflike how they're dealing with it
now and then something Ihaven't got very far something
bad really happens.
I think it says in the synopsissynopsis one of the girls dies
and then it kind of startsdragging up the past.
The other one kind of has to gothrough whatever she came out
(32:43):
with a new book recently.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
I bought it.
I haven't read it yet, but I'venever read anything bad by her.
No, so good.
Yeah, um, I'm currently reading, so I started this.
It's a series this is the firstbook in this series called
vanishing girls by lisa reagan,and it's a detective jos.
This is the first book in thisseries called Vanishing Girls by
Lisa Reagan and it's aDetective Josie Quinn series.
That's the first book in theseries.
(33:04):
It's super easy read, justsomething quick.
I really like that the chaptersare short, so it just kind of
keeps the flow going.
So Josie Quinn is a detectiveIn this book.
She is currently suspended fromthe force and she happens to be
a witness to this accident.
And the person that survivesthe accident says a woman's name
.
She's like who is this?
I can't figure this out, kindof thing.
(33:24):
But it turns out that the guywho survives the accident has
connections to a girl that's alocal girl that's missing.
It's a small town inpennsylvania and it's just all
of these pieces are tyingtogether and she finds that you
know his niece.
Niece used to be the guy thatsurvived the accident.
His niece was captive.
She was held captive for a yearshe came out and ended up
(33:45):
killing a nurse in a nursinghome because she's so possessed
from the trauma she experiencedand things like that.
And so it's kind of going inand out of all of that stuff.
And I got just into a point I'mhalfway through it where her
fiance, who is a state trooper,got shot and might die, like it
just keeps going.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
You want to keep reading it?
Speaker 2 (34:06):
There's so many different twists and turns and
you're not sitting there readinga chapter for-.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I hate that when you're like looking like oh my
God, how many pages are left inthis chapter.
I hate that.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
When you're like looking like oh my God, how many
pages are left in this chapter.
I hate that, like I loveChristian Hanna books.
They're one of my favorite.
She's one of my favoriteauthors.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Historical fiction.
I can't do it.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
I love her books but again, her chapters are really
long and like.
So I have to be in the mentalheadspace.
If I want a quick, good, easyread, that's that, that, frida,
I'll do, or something like that.
Like, if I need to get out of areading slump, easy, quick
reads and it's like, oh yeah,this is why I love reading.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
Yeah, I do that sometimes if I read like a book
that I would really struggle toget through.
Then I'll be my instant go tois a Frida or a Lucinda Berry?
Speaker 2 (34:48):
or a Colleen Hoover.
I hate to be that trendy person, but I love her books.
I haven't read any of her newones.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Recently I read this book, that she wrote my most
recent book, that it was a whileback, but it's called hopeless.
Yep, I have that one, so goodis it so good.
That's why I've never read abad book, so I named my chickens
hope and sky from hopelessheartbones is such a good, oh
yeah, I read that too, yeah I?
Speaker 2 (35:13):
I think I did.
I don't dislike her books atall.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Layla was hard for me .
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Yeah, I couldn't get into it, so I need to pick it
back up because I know that it'sdifferent from what she
normally writes, and that's hardfor me when I have such a
preconceived like this is howher writing is, and then to
shift it, kind of weird to me.
Speaker 1 (35:41):
Yeah, that's the only .
I mean mean I read that bookand it was fine, but it was the
only book where I was like whatthe fuck am I reading?
And sometimes of hers, yeah,and like sometimes like on my
facebook, like things will popup from like thriller groups,
and somebody just recently wasright, this is the best colleen
hoover book I've read.
And I was like you're on, Ididn't say anything because I'm
a very I don't like to be ainternet troll.
You're silent.

(38:01):
my master's and he's likecollege is overrated.
And I said not in my field,it's not.
And I said, if you work atanything in the medical field,
college educations meaneverything.
Speaker 1 (38:09):
It's how you make the money.
Speaker 2 (38:11):

opportunities Do.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
