Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, here we go with today's Minnesota Goodbye. Let's
first address the live podcast we're doing December sixth. It
is going to be noon. We're working on pizza, so
when you come in, you get pizza, we'll get some
like prizes, things like that, I think. But the way
we're going to do it again where there's no perfect way.
We've never done this before, but I think what we're
(00:21):
going to do is have you if you want to
come to the live broadcast a live recording of the
podcast about an hour or so, and we'll kind of
hang out and mingle and talk and whatever afterward. So
probably noon until one thirty ish on December sixth here
in Saint Louis Park at the radio station, probably about
one hundred people. The skyroom capacity is supposed to be
(00:43):
eighty eight people. I think we can put more people
in there. I don't want it to look lightly attended.
I want people to go. Man. I went to the
Morning Show podcast and it was packed. That's what I want,
and I don't want so I want to pack the place. Yeah,
so I don't know what number that means, but here's
what we're going to do. If you want to go
(01:05):
we're going to limit it to to you and a guest,
so you can't bring like five people if you know
fight people that want to come. That's very flattering, but
we'll limit it to you and a guest. Send an
email to Ryan Show at KTWB dot com and put
in the subject line live podcast.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
That way we'll be able to put them in a folder,
the people that want to go to the live podcast.
Then we will email you back with a confirmation.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
If you got in.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
If you got in, yes, and if you don't get in,
it's not We're not going to be like, oh well
we liked her better than her or him better than him.
We're not going to like pick and choose. It's just
going to be like whoever we get to first, so
probably probably in the in the order they arrive.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Okay, So I would say, you don't have to sit
and send us like a paragraph of information or anything.
We just probably want their information themselves, right.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Like a name and really that's it, your name, yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Name, and we already will have your email since you're
emailing us, So I think that's all that.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
We'll need if you want to sell us on you
a little bit like oh my God, I just love
the Minnesota Goodbye and I've never missed an episode. Then
you know that might help a little bit.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Yeah. Also, do you want one ticket or two tickets?
Because I cannot imagine some people wouldn't need to.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that's a very good point. Yeah,
so send us an email Ryan Show at KTWB dot com.
If you get a confirmation back, that means you were chosen.
And if you didn't check your spam folder, because we
could be in there and we're going to try to
pack the place with about one hundred or maybe one
hundred and something people. Yeah, that'd be cool. Yeah, yay,
(02:39):
all right, let's get into Juanita's rant to kick off
the Minnesota Goodbye. Are you guys ready? Okay, here comes Juanita.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Wow?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
Well that's my ranch. Gee.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
I hope you guys have a blessed say happy Thanksgiving.
And I'm pretty sure that come next week I will
have tons and tons of rants for the live uh Minnesota.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Goodbye and I will talk to you guys next week.
I love you.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Bye, Okay, thank you? That was funny.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I thought about Wanita this weekend because Bernie loves her
little his little um somemore that she got him. And
Bernie is so funny because he's got a basket full
of toys and we pull we put all the toys
in his basket. He'll pull them out one at a time,
he'll put them on his bed. Then he'll go back
with another one and he'll pull him out one at
a time until he's like a little toddler with toys
scattered all over his bed. Yeah, and so thought about
you wanted it because he pulled his more out. And
(05:49):
I think you also gave a corn on the cob
and he loves that one too.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
I'd love to be a fly on the wall at
Juanita's Thanksgiving. And I also my favorite part of that
whole rant was at the end when it seemed like
she was going through a some papers because she had
written it all down.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
She's like, all right, that's everything.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I had some notes.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I so love me. Thank you, Anita. We we'll see
you at the Live Minnesota. Goodbye, all right? Next one,
Hello people. I was on Facebook flipping through pictures of
a wedding that I had received a save the date
for but was never actually invited to. I was wondering
if any of you had an instant like this for
a funny story. To be transparent, I'd moved away and
lost touch with the bride, so I don't falter one bit.
(06:28):
It's just funny to think. Huh, I was supposed to
be there. We lost touch because she is a snake
and sold me out to my former boss. But she
still deserves happiness though I'm so I'm proud of her. Forgive,
but don't forget, am I right? Lol? No, So she
had to save the date for, like, you know, like
March eighteenth, save the date, but never got an invite.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yes, I did have this happen. I got to save
the date for my ex boyfriend's wedding, which does sound weird,
but we dated for like two years, and then we
really didn't talk for like a year, and then we
just kind of got back into communicy and we ended
up being pretty good friends. And then I was invited
to his wedding. I got addressed for it and everything,
(07:08):
and I was planning. I'm just kind of sitting in
the back and being sad. And then literally two weeks
before his wedding, he called me and said I couldn't
come anymore, could not come, could not come anymore? Really, Yeah,
so I assume his wife told him that she didn't
want me there anymore, even though I had met her
a handful of times too, and she sees me you.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Were a former like former girl friend. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
Yeah, it's a bummer.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I really would have liked to be there since he
was a really good friend of mine, But pretty much
once I was uninvited to that wedding, I really never
saw him again as friends. Yeah, that's kind of a bummer.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Yeah, I was not invited to a friend of mine's
wedding because back before Susan and I were together, this
girl and I had dated and her husband. You know,
we've never had words and we've never had like any bitterness.
He just didn't want her former boyfriend there. Yeah, I
totally get that. So, yeah, all right, next one, Don't
Say My Name. I'm catching up on some old episodes
(08:01):
and you ask for feedback, positive or negative. I've noticed
sometimes they all don't really dive in deep and talk
about topics that come through. I want to hear more
of your thoughts before you move on to the next email.
I suppose it's a balancing act, keep it moving so
it doesn't get boring. Or sometimes you say, let's talk
about this on the radio, and I want to hear more,
but I don't have enough time to listen to three
hours of that week's show to hear you talk on
(08:23):
the topic brought up. I love this short format podcast.
It's so easy to listen to and keep up with.
Perfect for a short commute drive. Ending on a fun question,
what's your favorite Thanksgiving savory and sweet food item? Thankful
for your podcast? That is from Don't Say My Name?
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Can I speak to that please?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
So sometimes we'll read an email and then we'll have
to go and do something because sometimes we record the podcast,
like during the show, and so we'll have to pause
the podcast and go back and then come back to
it later, and when we come back to it later,
we don't know where we left off, so we just
start and go on to the next one before we
can actually get in deep to an email.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
True, and sometimes we really don't have a whole lot
to say about it, So I don't know. I think
that sometimes I would rather like not beat a dead
horse than try to keep doing a deep dive. Sure,
but I do appreciate the short form medness of the
Minnesota goodbye. So if you get bored with one topic,
or you don't care about an email about the vikings,
(09:26):
or you don't care about an email about car insurance,
then we move on fairly quickly. Although I will say
there have been a couple of Minnesota goodbyes that we're
all based on one email. Yeah, can't think of anything
right now, but okay. Ending on a fun question, your
favorite Thanksgiving savory and sweet food item. I don't like sweets,
but I'm going to go ahead and say Thanksgiving turkey
(09:48):
with gravy. If I'm going to go have more of anything,
it's going to be the turkey and the gravy.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Minus the asparagus.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I will always go back to the.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Asparagus over turkey and gravy.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Turkey's probably my least favorite around the Thanksgiving. I could
do without turkey as long as everything was aside, that'd
be great, but uh, asparagus, green bean cast role and
I also don't really care for sweets. If we didn't
have pie, it would be fine, Okay.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, Oh well, I like mashed potatoes with a lot
of gravy. I do the Little Volcano and then I
also like, personally, I have always baked an apple pie
with a crumble topping, and I do love that apple
pie a lot. So I'm a pie gal, which I
never used to be. Yeah, I used to not like pie.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I love pie.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I love pie.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
I just like e.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
It's like I'd rather eat eighteen helpings of baked hash
browns versus I'm a slice of pie. Okay, yeah, all right,
so am I will say I'm low key sad that
technically this year we are not doing Thanksgiving at all
because me and my mom are going to be out
of the state and my dad has family coming in
and they're just going to go out like for Thanksgiving dinner.
(10:55):
They're not making anything. And it's my favorite holiday. But
like this was the time we had days off.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
We're gonna love your trip so much. You're going to
Graceland in Memphis. Yes, you're gonna go to Disney.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Yep, that's where we're doing.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
What parks are you hitting again?
Speaker 4 (11:10):
We're doing Magic Kingdom and Epcot and then potentially Hollywood Studios.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Those are the best three in that order. Yet.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Yeah, no, I agree. I'm excited, And it depends really
on what my friends who are still there are willing
to give me for free. Honestly, because if they can
get me into three parks, then I want to go
to three parks. If they can only get me into two,
then two.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
It is all right, fair enough, let's go too. The
next email Dave Jenny Bailey vont late night writer here.
They wrote this at eleven thirty seven on Friday. I'm
on my way home from my serving job and listening
to the Minnesota Goodbye as I decompress. I remember Dave
mentioning his stomach pain a few weeks back and thinking,
oh my god, why doesn't he go to the doctor.
(11:51):
And now you went to the doctor's appointment? Do you
plan to tell us what happened? But my main question
is why have you not gone to the doctor. Is
it because as you're afraid, maybe from Susan's cancer scare,
because you don't think it's anything to worry about. Oh,
let me back up. I've been to the doctor about this,
probably twenty or more times. I've gone to the mayo.
(12:13):
The mayo said it was muscular. That didn't work. I've
been to a hypnotist. I've been to a chiropractor. I've
been to probably six or seven different belly doctors. I've
swallowed a camera pill. I've had a thing up my ass,
I've had it down my throat.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
The same time.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, and that was at the bus station, which was
really weird. But he seemed nice. Yeah, he seemed nice
and he was very gentle and conclusive. Yeah yeah, but
it sure felt good. So anyway, so no, I went
to the doctor and it was annoying because they're like, Okay,
this was a month ago, let's get you the camera
pill swallow. They never called me back, so I had
(12:51):
to call them. Then they never called me back again,
so I called them. Then they called me back, and
I've got it set up for next Tuesday. So there's
really nothing to reap. But yeah, it's kind of funny
that you have not heard enough of the story to
know that. I've been so many times.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Have you done a camera thing before or no, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah, that was probably ten or more years ago.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
So they're just stumped. They really just don't know. Well,
they said I could have pancreatitis, which a doctor told
me once. He's like, you don't want that, and I'm like, well, no,
probably don't want that. Yeah, I asked, because I have
a friend who's going through something similar with his throat.
He is coughing extra phleim, his voice is changing, et cetera.
(13:33):
But he refuses to go to the doctor because he
thinks that he has cancer and he can't face it.
Whether that's true or not, I'm not sure. I've told
him he should go. YadA, YadA, Just mainly clearious why
you prolong going to the doctor. I would assume that
you have insurance anyway, That's all. It's just so funny
what people miss, you know. It was like the other
day you weren't here for it, Jenny. But I think
(13:53):
I told Bailey my garage door wouldn't open and so
we could not get in the house. We didn't have
a key to the front door. The garage door opener
was not opening. It would open about eight inches and
it would stop, and we'd close it. It opened about
eight inches and it would stop. So finally I got
it open just enough for Susan to squeeze into. Jeez,
(14:15):
did you crawl under yes, exactly, And so then she
went and opened the door and I came in and
I was able to lift it up. So somebody I
had to turn the car around in the garage. I'm
not sure you saw the video. The video, yeah, of me.
He had skills job of turning the car around the garage.
And somebody commented, Dave, why didn't you just pull the
(14:37):
release handle? And I'm like, do you really think that? I? Oh,
that never occurred to me. It's like, Dave, have you
checked to see whether it's plugged in? Oh? That never
occurred to me. But I think sometimes we just assume.
It's kind of like I think the best analogy is
when you walk up to the elevator and there's Bailey
(14:58):
standing there with Vaunt and you walk up and you're like,
did she push the button? It's lit up? Yeah, but
did she push it? Or maybe it's not lit up?
Would you push it. I probably would just assuming, oh, well,
maybe they're just standing here. They forgot to push it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Yeah I was, But I wouldn't be like, hey, idiot.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Okay, ready for another one. Sure my name is oh
they're talking about this is somebody totally different. This is
somebody from They want to help out with Christmas wish,
soho and moving on to the next one.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
I I have a question about Christmas wish because I
have a handful of people who are messaging me or
emailing me saying they want to donate like items. Is
that a thing or is that not a thing?
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Let's we always say no because it is very hard
for us to coordinate if people want to donate, like,
you know, like who was it? Broadway Pizza donated one
one hundred dollars gift cards, twenty of them, so we'll
just send them out. But if somebody says something like, yeah, yeah,
we have a blank blank blank that we would like
(16:03):
to donate if a family needs it, we will try
to accommodate it. But a lot of the time we
just go we don't have a staff that's large enough
to keep track of all of that, and we're reading
the wishes ourselves and then we go through and put
them in the yes pile the no pile. We sort
it out, We get a hold of the person who
did the wishing to make sure that it's almost like
a background check, a follow up to see whether they
(16:25):
still need it, to see whether they sound like it's legit, because,
believe it or not, some people will try to scam
Christmas wish and we've gotten pretty good at recognizing those.
But I just say, make a donation. If you really
want to help out and your company wants to donate
a bunch of widgets to give to people with Christmas wishes,
that's really nice and I so appreciate that. I wish
(16:46):
we had the capacity to go collect the widgets and
to sort them and to make sure they go and
sometimes we do. If you want, just mail us something
like if you work at, for example, a widget company
and you think a widget is a great gift for
somebody to get for Christmas wish, just mail us a
bunch of gift cards for a widget and we'll take
(17:07):
them out and they can use them if they want to. Okay,
what are you smiling?
Speaker 4 (17:11):
Is that a widget is like an app on your phone?
Isn't like I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
A widget is it is now known as an app
on your phone, but it's kind of a generic term
for an item. Okay, just just an item. A widget
is like what do you do? I make widgets, which
is a nondescript thing item. Is that what you're looking at?
Speaker 5 (17:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I was just like, I wanted to know what you
thought a widget was because I thought it was a
thing on your phone.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
But it is.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Okay, we're both okay.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
And then the address if you want yeah something is
sixteen hundred Utica U T I C A Avenue, South
Saint Louis Park, Minnesota five five four one four one.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Six five four one six Okay, yes, but that's right.
Next one. I just got done listening to the Friday
Minnesota Goodbye about how you're gonna get people to sign
up for the Minnesota Live podcast. Well, they offer some help,
and I think we figured it out. I think we're
we're gonna, you know, like I said, email and let
(18:08):
us know you and your guests want to come. And
if it's just you, then just let us know it's
just you. Love the podcast. I listen to Minnesota Goodbye
as soon as I'm done with work and then I
go to the four hours of the morning show. Thanks
for blessing the fam with a great podcast we all
look forward to every day. Olivia in Austin, Minnesota, Dave,
(18:29):
if you ever need a little weekend adventure in the winter,
come on down to Austin. Go to the Spam Museum.
I would actually love to. You can then go around
the corner to the B and Jay for some spam
inspired food.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Fine called the B and J.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Nice.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
It's a place for me, all right, Billy Jay, Billy Jay,
I get it's my initials, Jenny.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Here's one I got it from Stephanie. I love the
idea of the Live Minnesota Goodbye episode. Here's some suggestions.
Have people write out what they're gonna say before they
say it. Having people talk off the top of their
head can be a little bumbly. Okay, well maybe if
you're gonna edit the podcast, then you can just pass
the microphone around. But if you're planning on filming it
and having it live, I would highly suggest having a
(19:15):
line where people can line up and read their questions
and have a queue of people so it can go quicker,
less of a weight from question to question. Topic to topic.
I have added some questions to my Dave Ryan quiz
so I can send those over if you want to
use some of them during your live podcast. That may
be a good crowd to know some of the hard answers.
I would love to go to something like this, so
(19:36):
with enough heads up, I would absolutely be there. Stephanie
has been a loyal staff writer of the show for
a long time. We would love to have you there,
so yeah, send in your email Ryan Show at KTWB
dot com. What did the live podcast? Is that what
we're saying through the subject line live podcast? Live podcast podcast? Okay,
(19:58):
and yeah, I had not thought about live streaming. Yeah,
but we could. We could live stream it on YouTube
or Facebook or something, right.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I know Voon's not usually on this,
but is going to be there right?
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yes, Yes, I know.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I've been gone for a week, so I guess I
don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Yeah, he'll be there.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Yeah, but so I know that he has ways to
be able to live stream it from the skyroom because
we've done that before with like when we had that
wedding in there last year or whenever.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
It was, Oh, it's going to be over a year ago.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Now it was like a Valentine's Day. It was this
past Valentine's Day.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
It was I thought it was Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
But okay, that is going to do it for today's
Minnesota Goodbye. If you want to come to the podcast
December sixth, then you've heard the details and we would
love to see you there, just send that email. And
if you don't want to be at the Minnesota Goodbye
Live podcast, but you want to send in an email
to be read on the show, send it to Ryan
Show at KDWB dot com
All right, here we go with today's Minnesota Goodbye. Let's
first address the live podcast we're doing December sixth. It
is going to be noon. We're working on pizza, so
when you come in, you get pizza, we'll get some
like prizes, things like that, I think. But the way
we're going to do it again where there's no perfect way.
We've never done this before, but I think what we're
(00:21):
going to do is have you if you want to
come to the live broadcast a live recording of the
podcast about an hour or so, and we'll kind of
hang out and mingle and talk and whatever afterward. So
probably noon until one thirty ish on December sixth here
in Saint Louis Park at the radio station, probably about
one hundred people. The skyroom capacity is supposed to be
(00:43):
eighty eight people. I think we can put more people
in there. I don't want it to look lightly attended.
I want people to go. Man. I went to the
Morning Show podcast and it was packed. That's what I want,
and I don't want so I want to pack the place. Yeah,
so I don't know what number that means, but here's
what we're going to do. If you want to go
(01:05):
we're going to limit it to to you and a guest,
so you can't bring like five people if you know
fight people that want to come. That's very flattering, but
we'll limit it to you and a guest. Send an
email to Ryan Show at KTWB dot com and put
in the subject line live podcast.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
That way we'll be able to put them in a folder,
the people that want to go to the live podcast.
Then we will email you back with a confirmation.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
If you got in.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
If you got in, yes, and if you don't get in,
it's not We're not going to be like, oh well
we liked her better than her or him better than him.
We're not going to like pick and choose. It's just
going to be like whoever we get to first, so
probably probably in the in the order they arrive.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Okay, So I would say, you don't have to sit
and send us like a paragraph of information or anything.
We just probably want their information themselves, right.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Like a name and really that's it, your name, yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Name, and we already will have your email since you're
emailing us, So I think that's all that.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
We'll need if you want to sell us on you
a little bit like oh my God, I just love
the Minnesota Goodbye and I've never missed an episode. Then
you know that might help a little bit.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Yeah. Also, do you want one ticket or two tickets?
Because I cannot imagine some people wouldn't need to.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that's a very good point. Yeah,
so send us an email Ryan Show at KTWB dot com.
If you get a confirmation back, that means you were chosen.
And if you didn't check your spam folder, because we
could be in there and we're going to try to
pack the place with about one hundred or maybe one
hundred and something people. Yeah, that'd be cool. Yeah, yay,
(02:39):
all right, let's get into Juanita's rant to kick off
the Minnesota Goodbye. Are you guys ready? Okay, here comes Juanita.
Speaker 5 (02:46):

even knew shay Shae was in jail.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Wow?
Speaker 5 (05:05):
Well that's my ranch. Gee.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
I hope you guys have a blessed say happy Thanksgiving.
And I'm pretty sure that come next week I will
have tons and tons of rants for the live uh Minnesota.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Goodbye and I will talk to you guys next week.
I love you.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Bye, Okay, thank you? That was funny.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I thought about Wanita this weekend because Bernie loves her
little his little um somemore that she got him. And
Bernie is so funny because he's got a basket full
of toys and we pull we put all the toys
in his basket. He'll pull them out one at a time,
he'll put them on his bed. Then he'll go back
with another one and he'll pull him out one at
a time until he's like a little toddler with toys
scattered all over his bed. Yeah, and so thought about
you wanted it because he pulled his more out. And
(05:49):
I think you also gave a corn on the cob
and he loves that one too.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
I'd love to be a fly on the wall at
Juanita's Thanksgiving. And I also my favorite part of that
whole rant was at the end when it seemed like
she was going through a some papers because she had
written it all down.
Speaker 5 (06:02):
She's like, all right, that's everything.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I had some notes.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
I so love me. Thank you, Anita. We we'll see
you at the Live Minnesota. Goodbye, all right? Next one,
Hello people. I was on Facebook flipping through pictures of
a wedding that I had received a save the date
for but was never actually invited to. I was wondering
if any of you had an instant like this for
a funny story. To be transparent, I'd moved away and
lost touch with the bride, so I don't falter one bit.
(06:28):
It's just funny to think. Huh, I was supposed to
be there. We lost touch because she is a snake
and sold me out to my former boss. But she
still deserves happiness though I'm so I'm proud of her. Forgive,
but don't forget, am I right? Lol? No, So she
had to save the date for, like, you know, like
March eighteenth, save the date, but never got an invite.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yes, I did have this happen. I got to save
the date for my ex boyfriend's wedding, which does sound weird,
but we dated for like two years, and then we
really didn't talk for like a year, and then we
just kind of got back into communicy and we ended
up being pretty good friends. And then I was invited
to his wedding. I got addressed for it and everything,
(07:08):
and I was planning. I'm just kind of sitting in
the back and being sad. And then literally two weeks
before his wedding, he called me and said I couldn't
come anymore, could not come, could not come anymore? Really, Yeah,
so I assume his wife told him that she didn't
want me there anymore, even though I had met her
a handful of times too, and she sees me you.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Were a former like former girl friend. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
Yeah, it's a bummer.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I really would have liked to be there since he
was a really good friend of mine, But pretty much
once I was uninvited to that wedding, I really never
saw him again as friends. Yeah, that's kind of a bummer.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Yeah, I was not invited to a friend of mine's
wedding because back before Susan and I were together, this
girl and I had dated and her husband. You know,
we've never had words and we've never had like any bitterness.
He just didn't want her former boyfriend there. Yeah, I
totally get that. So, yeah, all right, next one, Don't
Say My Name. I'm catching up on some old episodes
(08:01):
and you ask for feedback, positive or negative. I've noticed
sometimes they all don't really dive in deep and talk
about topics that come through. I want to hear more
of your thoughts before you move on to the next email.
I suppose it's a balancing act, keep it moving so
it doesn't get boring. Or sometimes you say, let's talk
about this on the radio, and I want to hear more,
but I don't have enough time to listen to three
hours of that week's show to hear you talk on
(08:23):
the topic brought up. I love this short format podcast.
It's so easy to listen to and keep up with.
Perfect for a short commute drive. Ending on a fun question,
what's your favorite Thanksgiving savory and sweet food item? Thankful
for your podcast? That is from Don't Say My Name?
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Can I speak to that please?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
So sometimes we'll read an email and then we'll have
to go and do something because sometimes we record the podcast,
like during the show, and so we'll have to pause
the podcast and go back and then come back to
it later, and when we come back to it later,
we don't know where we left off, so we just
start and go on to the next one before we
can actually get in deep to an email.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
True, and sometimes we really don't have a whole lot
to say about it, So I don't know. I think
that sometimes I would rather like not beat a dead
horse than try to keep doing a deep dive. Sure,
but I do appreciate the short form medness of the
Minnesota goodbye. So if you get bored with one topic,
or you don't care about an email about the vikings,
(09:26):
or you don't care about an email about car insurance,
then we move on fairly quickly. Although I will say
there have been a couple of Minnesota goodbyes that we're
all based on one email. Yeah, can't think of anything
right now, but okay. Ending on a fun question, your
favorite Thanksgiving savory and sweet food item. I don't like sweets,
but I'm going to go ahead and say Thanksgiving turkey
(09:48):
with gravy. If I'm going to go have more of anything,
it's going to be the turkey and the gravy.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Minus the asparagus.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
I will always go back to the.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Asparagus over turkey and gravy.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Turkey's probably my least favorite around the Thanksgiving. I could
do without turkey as long as everything was aside, that'd
be great, but uh, asparagus, green bean cast role and
I also don't really care for sweets. If we didn't
have pie, it would be fine, Okay.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
Yeah, Oh well, I like mashed potatoes with a lot
of gravy. I do the Little Volcano and then I
also like, personally, I have always baked an apple pie
with a crumble topping, and I do love that apple
pie a lot. So I'm a pie gal, which I
never used to be. Yeah, I used to not like pie.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I love pie.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I love pie.
Speaker 5 (10:30):
I just like e.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
It's like I'd rather eat eighteen helpings of baked hash
browns versus I'm a slice of pie. Okay, yeah, all right,
so am I will say I'm low key sad that
technically this year we are not doing Thanksgiving at all
because me and my mom are going to be out
of the state and my dad has family coming in
and they're just going to go out like for Thanksgiving dinner.
(10:55):
They're not making anything. And it's my favorite holiday. But
like this was the time we had days off.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
We're gonna love your trip so much. You're going to
Graceland in Memphis. Yes, you're gonna go to Disney.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Yep, that's where we're doing.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
What parks are you hitting again?
Speaker 4 (11:10):
We're doing Magic Kingdom and Epcot and then potentially Hollywood Studios.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Those are the best three in that order. Yet.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Yeah, no, I agree. I'm excited, And it depends really
on what my friends who are still there are willing
to give me for free. Honestly, because if they can
get me into three parks, then I want to go
to three parks. If they can only get me into two,
then two.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
It is all right, fair enough, let's go too. The
next email Dave Jenny Bailey vont late night writer here.
They wrote this at eleven thirty seven on Friday. I'm
on my way home from my serving job and listening
to the Minnesota Goodbye as I decompress. I remember Dave
mentioning his stomach pain a few weeks back and thinking,
oh my god, why doesn't he go to the doctor.
(11:51):
And now you went to the doctor's appointment? Do you
plan to tell us what happened? But my main question
is why have you not gone to the doctor. Is
it because as you're afraid, maybe from Susan's cancer scare,
because you don't think it's anything to worry about. Oh,
let me back up. I've been to the doctor about this,
probably twenty or more times. I've gone to the mayo.
(12:13):
The mayo said it was muscular. That didn't work. I've
been to a hypnotist. I've been to a chiropractor. I've
been to probably six or seven different belly doctors. I've
swallowed a camera pill. I've had a thing up my ass,
I've had it down my throat.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
The same time.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, and that was at the bus station, which was
really weird. But he seemed nice. Yeah, he seemed nice
and he was very gentle and conclusive. Yeah yeah, but
it sure felt good. So anyway, so no, I went
to the doctor and it was annoying because they're like, Okay,
this was a month ago, let's get you the camera
pill swallow. They never called me back, so I had
(12:51):
to call them. Then they never called me back again,
so I called them. Then they called me back, and
I've got it set up for next Tuesday. So there's
really nothing to reap. But yeah, it's kind of funny
that you have not heard enough of the story to
know that. I've been so many times.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Have you done a camera thing before or no, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah, that was probably ten or more years ago.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
So they're just stumped. They really just don't know. Well,
they said I could have pancreatitis, which a doctor told
me once. He's like, you don't want that, and I'm like, well, no,
probably don't want that. Yeah, I asked, because I have
a friend who's going through something similar with his throat.
He is coughing extra phleim, his voice is changing, et cetera.
(13:33):
But he refuses to go to the doctor because he
thinks that he has cancer and he can't face it.
Whether that's true or not, I'm not sure. I've told
him he should go. YadA, YadA, Just mainly clearious why
you prolong going to the doctor. I would assume that
you have insurance anyway, That's all. It's just so funny
what people miss, you know. It was like the other
day you weren't here for it, Jenny. But I think
(13:53):
I told Bailey my garage door wouldn't open and so
we could not get in the house. We didn't have
a key to the front door. The garage door opener
was not opening. It would open about eight inches and
it would stop, and we'd close it. It opened about
eight inches and it would stop. So finally I got
it open just enough for Susan to squeeze into. Jeez,
(14:15):
did you crawl under yes, exactly, And so then she
went and opened the door and I came in and
I was able to lift it up. So somebody I
had to turn the car around in the garage. I'm
not sure you saw the video. The video, yeah, of me.
He had skills job of turning the car around the garage.
And somebody commented, Dave, why didn't you just pull the
(14:37):
release handle? And I'm like, do you really think that? I? Oh,
that never occurred to me. It's like, Dave, have you
checked to see whether it's plugged in? Oh? That never
occurred to me. But I think sometimes we just assume.
It's kind of like I think the best analogy is
when you walk up to the elevator and there's Bailey
(14:58):
standing there with Vaunt and you walk up and you're like,
did she push the button? It's lit up? Yeah, but
did she push it? Or maybe it's not lit up?
Would you push it. I probably would just assuming, oh, well,
maybe they're just standing here. They forgot to push it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Yeah I was, But I wouldn't be like, hey, idiot.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Okay, ready for another one. Sure my name is oh
they're talking about this is somebody totally different. This is
somebody from They want to help out with Christmas wish,
soho and moving on to the next one.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
I I have a question about Christmas wish because I
have a handful of people who are messaging me or
emailing me saying they want to donate like items. Is
that a thing or is that not a thing?
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Let's we always say no because it is very hard
for us to coordinate if people want to donate, like,
you know, like who was it? Broadway Pizza donated one
one hundred dollars gift cards, twenty of them, so we'll
just send them out. But if somebody says something like, yeah, yeah,
we have a blank blank blank that we would like
(16:03):
to donate if a family needs it, we will try
to accommodate it. But a lot of the time we
just go we don't have a staff that's large enough
to keep track of all of that, and we're reading
the wishes ourselves and then we go through and put
them in the yes pile the no pile. We sort
it out, We get a hold of the person who
did the wishing to make sure that it's almost like
a background check, a follow up to see whether they
(16:25):
still need it, to see whether they sound like it's legit, because,
believe it or not, some people will try to scam
Christmas wish and we've gotten pretty good at recognizing those.
But I just say, make a donation. If you really
want to help out and your company wants to donate
a bunch of widgets to give to people with Christmas wishes,
that's really nice and I so appreciate that. I wish
(16:46):
we had the capacity to go collect the widgets and
to sort them and to make sure they go and
sometimes we do. If you want, just mail us something
like if you work at, for example, a widget company
and you think a widget is a great gift for
somebody to get for Christmas wish, just mail us a
bunch of gift cards for a widget and we'll take
(17:07):
them out and they can use them if they want to. Okay,
what are you smiling?
Speaker 4 (17:11):
Is that a widget is like an app on your phone?
Isn't like I don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
A widget is it is now known as an app
on your phone, but it's kind of a generic term
for an item. Okay, just just an item. A widget
is like what do you do? I make widgets, which
is a nondescript thing item. Is that what you're looking at?
Speaker 5 (17:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I was just like, I wanted to know what you
thought a widget was because I thought it was a
thing on your phone.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
But it is.
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Okay, we're both okay.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
And then the address if you want yeah something is
sixteen hundred Utica U T I C A Avenue, South
Saint Louis Park, Minnesota five five four one four one.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Six five four one six Okay, yes, but that's right.
Next one. I just got done listening to the Friday
Minnesota Goodbye about how you're gonna get people to sign
up for the Minnesota Live podcast. Well, they offer some help,
and I think we figured it out. I think we're
we're gonna, you know, like I said, email and let
(18:08):
us know you and your guests want to come. And
if it's just you, then just let us know it's
just you. Love the podcast. I listen to Minnesota Goodbye
as soon as I'm done with work and then I
go to the four hours of the morning show. Thanks
for blessing the fam with a great podcast we all
look forward to every day. Olivia in Austin, Minnesota, Dave,
(18:29):
if you ever need a little weekend adventure in the winter,
come on down to Austin. Go to the Spam Museum.
I would actually love to. You can then go around
the corner to the B and Jay for some spam
inspired food.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Fine called the B and J.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Nice.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
It's a place for me, all right, Billy Jay, Billy Jay,
I get it's my initials, Jenny.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Here's one I got it from Stephanie. I love the
idea of the Live Minnesota Goodbye episode. Here's some suggestions.
Have people write out what they're gonna say before they
say it. Having people talk off the top of their
head can be a little bumbly. Okay, well maybe if
you're gonna edit the podcast, then you can just pass
the microphone around. But if you're planning on filming it
and having it live, I would highly suggest having a
(19:15):
line where people can line up and read their questions
and have a queue of people so it can go quicker,
less of a weight from question to question. Topic to topic.
I have added some questions to my Dave Ryan quiz
so I can send those over if you want to
use some of them during your live podcast. That may
be a good crowd to know some of the hard answers.
I would love to go to something like this, so
(19:36):
with enough heads up, I would absolutely be there. Stephanie
has been a loyal staff writer of the show for
a long time. We would love to have you there,
so yeah, send in your email Ryan Show at KTWB
dot com. What did the live podcast? Is that what
we're saying through the subject line live podcast? Live podcast podcast? Okay,
(19:58):
and yeah, I had not thought about live streaming. Yeah,
but we could. We could live stream it on YouTube
or Facebook or something, right.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I know Voon's not usually on this,
but is going to be there right?
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yes, Yes, I know.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I've been gone for a week, so I guess I
don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Yeah, he'll be there.
Speaker 3 (20:16):
Yeah, but so I know that he has ways to
be able to live stream it from the skyroom because
we've done that before with like when we had that
wedding in there last year or whenever.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
It was, Oh, it's going to be over a year ago.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
Now it was like a Valentine's Day. It was this
past Valentine's Day.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
It was I thought it was Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
But okay, that is going to do it for today's
Minnesota Goodbye. If you want to come to the podcast
December sixth, then you've heard the details and we would
love to see you there, just send that email. And
if you don't want to be at the Minnesota Goodbye
Live podcast, but you want to send in an email
to be read on the show, send it to Ryan
Show at KDWB dot com

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
