It was awesome, And you're helpingit with Street Street clean up today.
I am. I'm excited to behere. I think the thing is
(01:53):
that gradually we're going to let Briekind of take over my job on the
show, so I can kind ofjust fade away. It would mind,
Brie, what do you do normally? I'm a nurse. Normally I work

(02:14):
I hurt right here where like Iwoke up yesterday morning, right under
my chin where the lymph nodes are. But they're not swollen. You know
what? That is, just anotherchin growing in. Okay, thank you,
dam growing pain, this growing pain. Start off with the emails good
morning. Wanted to write in andgive a shout out to Bailey for knowing
(02:34):
where OGLV is. It's where Ilive, but not where I'm from.
Originally, my husband grew up there. That's how I made my way here.
We are the town where men Dotput up the population signs with the
name of this town spelled wrong.Oh didn't they really awkward? Also,
I just heard Tipsy by Shaboozi ona Saint Cloud country station last night.
(02:55):
I was a bit surprised to havebut happy to hear it. It is
definitely my song of summer. Havea great day, guys. And it
says no name please, So I'mgonna go back and I'm gonna edit her
name out of the podcast. SoI wonder why she doesn't want me to
say her name? Okay, wow, After it says Howdy hoe my favorites.
(03:21):
After hearing this segment on nicknames,I felt they must tell you a
little story about how I got mine. Kelly Karate. Picture it nineteen ninety
five, Nice suburban development. LittleKelly is five years old in her best
dress for her first day of kindergarten. She and her best friend have been
practicing their power Ranger moves all summer. She indeed held the strength of the
(03:44):
yellow Power Ranger as she stepped aboardthe first yellow school bus. Who was
she to encounter but a group offifth grade boys who yelled, who called
her, who called her and herfriend babies babies cue, best friend telling
Kellylly, show him some of yourmoves. So she loyally stood up and,
giving her best hi, yeah,gave a swift kick right to the
(04:09):
shins of mean Jimmy. From thatday forward, she was coined Karate Kelly.
Did she flourish in the kick assname? No, They would taunt
her in the Nana Nana Nana KarateKelly one hundred times a day. Did
she continue to kick like a karatelike Kelly Karate when teased? And yes,
(04:30):
there's a photo attached to me themoment before I got my nickname.
Oh and she wants a staff ridersticker. So I'm going to give you
another one, Breeody. And itis a picture of a little girl getting
on a bus. It is sofirst day of school. She's got her
little backpack on, she is wavingto mom goodbye, and she's wearing a
beautiful blue five year old girl dressand it's very sweet. So karate Kelly,
(04:55):
what a great story. Thank you. Next one, Okay, I
don't think I can read this onebecause it has to do with ratings,
and we're not allowed to talk aboutradio station ratings. I think I probably
can on the podcast, but I'mnot going to. I don't want to
stray into anything that I'm not allowedto get into. So basically, she
(05:16):
talks about how she listens to theshow. And if your name is Ali,
thank you. I cannot read yourentire email, but I will say
a question for Jenny, what hasbeen your favorite Survivor season that you've watched
so far? I would have tosay the Millennials versus gen x ers or
yea gen x that's what it was. I get confused because the millennials are
(05:41):
like what I feel like, aregen z age now because it's such an
old season, so I'm like,wait, what is it? But yeah,
that's definitely it. I really likedCook Islands and any season that has
Stephen Fishbok the love of my lifeblood versus water. Ooh, blood versus
I haven't seen that one yet.Oh, I love survivor what a vibe
really like furiously reading something right now? Yeah, some of them are not
(06:04):
for the Minnesota Goodbye, But thisis somebody who says, check your mailbox
tomorrow, Dave. You've been sucha huge part of my life. It's
the least I could do. Hoursof running entertained by you. So I
think she sent me a shirt.Yeah, okay, good, thank you,
Shannon, appreciate that. Okay,next one, Minnesota Goodbye. I
(06:28):
want to start out by saying howmuch I love this podcast. I drive
all day for work, and y'allare literally the only thing that I like
to listen to. My questions arefor you, Dave. I was listening
to an older podcast where you wereall discussing the fear of flying and how
you were saying that planes don't reallydon't crash anymore. I know you're a
pilot, so I'm wondering if you'veever had any scary moments or close calls.
(06:49):
Also, do you own your ownairplane or do you rent one when
you fly? I've always wondered howthat works. Have a great day.
Thanks for making my driving days ahoot from Hillary. Okay. Because of
technology and so much more safety,there really hasn't been a serious commercial plane
(07:10):
crash in the United States in fifteenish years and back. You know,
even like in the nineties or inthe eighties, there was one probably two
or three times a year, likea serious, fatal, massive, deadly
plane crash, and there really hasn'tbeen any lately. Knock on wood,
just like random fires every once ina while, or like the window blew
out on something. Yeah, andit doesn't mean there will never be another
(07:34):
one, but the one of thereasons, I'll give you a little thing
here on fline so you'll know,because I think it's kind of interesting.
There used to be a real hierarchyof like the pilot was God. He
was God or she was God.And if you are not and you're the
first officer or the engineer, younever questioned the pilot. So you would
(07:56):
get a pilot that would be fuckingup basically, and you would not tell
the pilot I don't think we shoulddo that or that's wrong, or ever
like grab the you know, thethe throttle or whatever from the pilot.
You would basically let the pilot justdo whatever, do whatever. Yeah,
And pilots are human, uh,And there's been so many where it's like,
(08:18):
are you sure we're ready to go? Are you sure we're good to
go? And they're like, oh, yeah, we're fine, and then
they would go and then the pilotwould kill everybody on. So now they've
had a shift in the way ofthinking in the last twenty or thirty years
where even if you're like the youknow, second officer on the flight,
you should question the pilot if youthink they're doing something wrong. There's like
(08:39):
a checks and balances system. Yeah, and it used to not be that
way. And there were several instanceswhere they let the pilot do whatever and
they all died even though they knewthat he was doing something wrong. And
how do they know this because there'sa cockpit voice recorder. Yeah, I
was gonna say, how did theyall die? And then how did they
say? Hey, he didn't listento me, right exactly. So there
was a cock pit voice recorder thatwould record all the dialogue in the cockpit
(09:03):
and on the radio, and therewere several instances where, without getting too
specific, where they'd be like,do you really think we should do that?
Oh? Yeah, it's fine.Are we cleared? Is the runway
clear? Oh yeah, it's fine, And then we'd take off and they
literally hit another plane they couldn't seein the fog because whatever. So yeah,
so filet flying is a whole lotsafer. I've never really had a
(09:24):
scary moment or a close call.When I was a student, I was
flying to Fergus Falls and it wasover SOT Center and my engine sputtered,
and I thought the first thing Ithought was this is how I'm going to
die. That was my first thought. And it sputtered and then it came
back to life, so it wasno big deal. But for a minute
(09:46):
there I really thought, oh shit. So not really a close call,
but the closest I've come to aclose call engine cuts out is are you
like dead for sure? Or canyou like slowly float to the ground.
You can slow float to the ground. There's actually something called best glide speed
that we pilots have to memorize.So if the engine goes out, they
(10:11):
say, the first thing that youdo is fly the airplane. So don't
panic. You will, but don'tpanic. Don't start like playing around with
all the equipment. Don't start tryingto whatever. Fly the airplane. Because
you are dicking around inside the cockpittrying to restart it, you look up
and you're like crashing into a fieldor whatever. So fly the airplane.
(10:31):
But then they call it best glidespeed. And every airplane has its speed
that it glides the farthest. Okay, so in my little airplane it might
be sixty seven miles per hour.So I'll get it to sixty seven miles
an hour. Now I can glidefor a really long way. I look
for a field over there or aroad, and then I go, oh,
I'll land in that farmer's field.Do you like, is there a
(10:52):
way to like tell someone that you'regonna land in a space that no one's
expecting a plane to be in.Good question, Bailey. Yeah. The
rule is aviate, navigate, andcommunicate. So in other words, aviate.
The first thing you do is flythe plane, navigate, look for
a place to land, and thenwhen you have time, if you have
(11:13):
time, then you communicate and yousay, hey, this is two four,
three, six November and we're goingdown. We're going down. So
yeah, you can call them andyou can say, hey, I'm four
miles west of Hutchinson. Yeah,and so they know where to find the
plume of smoke. Jez oh.And then I rent a lot of people
(11:37):
low on airplanes. I rent becausethen at the end of the day,
when I'm done, I hand themthe keys and I say I'll see you
next time. I think a lotof people have that misconception that you have
your own plane since you go toColorado, because I used to think that
you flew yourself to Colorado every timeyou went there. I had no idea.
I'm not. I thought the samething for a long time. Yeah,
a lot of people do. No. I just fly commercial, and
(12:00):
it would take a long day tofly to Colorado, and a lot of
the time the weather is not clearall the way from here to Colorado,
and I can't fly in anything butmoderately clear way. Are you only licensed
to fly in Minnesota? Oh?No, I can fly anywhere. Well,
I just don't ever hear you sayingthat you fly in Colorado, is
they're not some more close. Ihave flown in Colorado. But it's a
(12:22):
process. So when you go toa place they're not familiar with you,
you have to check out with aninstructor and go up with an instructor and
they fly for an hour and makesure you're competent, and then you get
to sign out all the paperwork.But when I go to where I go
now Thunderbird, they know me,and I come in, I sign in,
and I get in the plane andI go. So but yeah,
(12:43):
I can fly in other states too. Okay, here's one about the podcast.
It says, hello from Chelsea.I'm writing in response to the person
that wrote in the other day aboutthe podcast not playing in order. I
have the same issue, and itmust be for Apple podcasts. That's where
I listen. If you play anepisodisode once it ends, it will automatically
play the episode posted after that.So let's say I play the six am
(13:05):
episode from Monday, it will nextplay the nine am episode from Tuesday,
then eight am from Tuesday, soit's backwards. However, you can sort
and add to your queue to getthem in order. So I see how
it's confusing. I also like whenthe show was posted in one chunk rather
than hour by hour. Still loveyou guys, though, and we'll listen
no matter how it's posted from Chelsea. Any updates on that, I mean,
(13:28):
if it does it that way inApple, then that's I'm sorry,
Like, that's just how you're gonnahave to deal with it, because iHeart
is the main one that we use, and it works in iHeart that's what
you listen to it, right,really, I hear. So that's just
kind of how it is, unfortunately. I mean, I was just listening
to something on Apple podcast yesterday andas soon as the podcast was done,
it took me to another random likemusician I listened to, like it didn't
(13:52):
even go to that same podcast,So I don't understand how Apple works.
Yeah, I don't listen to ourpodcast, so I don't really know.
But it's always why would I youknow, don't you want to relive your
good times? No? No,no, no, I mean I love
the show, but I don't reallywant to go back and listen to it.
(14:13):
I love the show, but notthat well. Next one from Nicole,
She's a She lives in Hayfield,Minnesota. She says, good morning,
Dave and Crew. I wanted totalk about living in a small town
I grow. I grew up inthe Twin Cities from when I was to
until last summer when I was thirtyeight and I moved to Hayfield. Population
(14:35):
one thousand, three hundred and twentyfour. Wow, everybody knows everyone.
We got a bar, little grocerystore, gas station, homecoming parades.
Their town festival is next weekend.The town is so small. How small
is it? The elementary, middleschool, and high school are all in
one building. Wow. Yes,I will get bored in this small house
town. But Rochester is only abouttwenty five minutes away, so I'm not
(14:56):
going to go so crazy. Ilove this community seems to really do watch
out for each other. If someoneis in need of something, it sees
the community will jump into help.I feel like my theme song right now
is y'all Life by Walker Hayes.I don't know that song that money there,
but probably like country, it isall right. Last email from Charrase
(15:22):
and she is a regular staff writer. She says, I find myself needing
some advice, and you might remembershe's had some you know, like relationship
things and she says she broke upwith the younger guy that I was seeing,
and I took your advice, Dave. I've decided I'm not going to
deal with his behavior anymore. Heactually sent me a text message trying to
explain his behavior. He said theydidn't want the same things. She wants
(15:46):
marriage and kids one day, whichI was fine about. He just assumed
that I didn't want these things,and instead of discussing it anyway, I'm
over the whole thing. Here's theproblem. He's got some of my shit.
Now I'm paraphrasing, but he's gotsome of her stuff. And I
said give it back, please,and he said I'm not ready. I
don't know what that means. Idon't want to send an angry message demanding
my things back because I don't wanthim to destroy or throw away anything.
(16:08):
I even offered him a way toreturn stuff without talking to me or seeing
me, but he didn't take it. I'm at a loss what to do.
I really want my things back,but I don't want to antagonize him.
Any advice would be appreciated, Iwould. I'm curious, what are
your things? Is it? Ifit's a hoodie and a smart speaker.
(16:29):
Then I think you might just wantto cut your losses and say fuck it.
Yeah, you know, because itsounds like you're a little bit frightened
of his reaction, and you shouldnever be frightened of somebody's reaction, you
know what I mean. So himsaying like I'm not ready to give it
back yet, well, I'm readyto get it back, so give me
my stuff. That's totally disrespectful.That's so weird. Are you sleeping with
the sweatshirt? Like why? Yeah, I don't know. And I think
(16:52):
it sounds to me like he's justholding it ransom, like he wants to
somehow still control you. To me, it's like, you know what,
I would block him. I wouldsay keep the shit. Unless it's really
valuable, then I guess you couldmaybe call the police. I don't know,
but it sounds like if it's notsomething that you can replace, if
you can replace it, let himhave it. I wonder if you could
(17:15):
go get it from him, butbring somebody with you as like okay,
kind of you know, not ashield, but you know, like,
as I guess, just a wayto hold him accountable, like he won't
be like, no, you can'tleave stay forever. If you have like
somebody with you to also be there, yeah, like bring along a friend
(17:36):
or something like that, saying I'mcoming over, I want I'm bringing my
dad, yeah exactly. Or I'mbringing my big friend yeah uh, and
we want my shit back. Yeah. I don't know. It sounds there's
a I'm reading between the lines.I think there's something that she is a
little bit afraid of his reaction becauseyou never know, and you should never
be afraid of your person and theweird way they'd react. Yeah. Also,
(17:57):
it sucks that she feels response forhis emotions, which is stupid.
He should have those in check,sir. All right, that is it
for the Minnesota Goodbye. I loveyour emails. That's what makes the whole
podcast, Bri. You're gonna sendout these staff writer stickers which are literally
like four or five months overdue.Come on it. So thank you very
(18:18):
much and we will see you tomorrowhere on the Minnesota Goodbye email address.
