Speaker 1 (00:00):
I was not here for the Minnesota Goodbye. I was
in Colorado. Here's it. What's interesting. I didn't want to
listen to the show because I was up early enough
to listen to the show. But I didn't want to
because I would get too like, oh, they're doing that wrong.
Oh that was funny. Oh I don't like that one.
Oh we're going to remember that one. Oh. Then i'd
start taking notes and I said, fuck that, I'm not
going to listen to the show. So but I did
(00:21):
try to listen to the Minnesota Goodbye because I really
liked the Minnesota Goodbye, and Alexa would not play it.
So but I didn't know this. Let me let me
try Alexa play the Minnesota Goodbye on iHeartRadio. She's spinning, spinning,
(00:42):
hold on and then she does nothing, so it doesn't work.
And as it, let me know if you if it's
ever worked for you, because you can definitely say you know.
And I don't want to say it because she'll do
it to play Katie WB but she says she's playing
the Minnesota Goodbye, but she doesn't.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
So should I try on our Alexa, I'm here.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah, try it on yours?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Yah?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you have to plug it in.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
She's plugged in, Billy, will you put that mic up
to her? Alexa play the Minnesota Goodbye on iheartradioinning Oh and.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
She doesn't do it. No, Yeah, that's that happened yesterday too. Anyway,
So I was I was going to brag and say, oh,
here's another way to listen, but you can't. So let's
get into the emails because that was really weird. Okay,
this one's from Julie. She says, hello there. I'd love
to hear Dave share what he's learned about people through
doing magic. I imagine there's some interesting insights about human
(01:45):
behavior and attention that he's discovered from performing. Thanks for
brightening my day, is Julie, Writer and animal advocate. Julie.
That's a really interesting question. I've learned that people love
to be a maid. They love to be amazed, and
they just get a thrill out of it, like a
childlike thrill out of like you know, you put a
(02:07):
quarter in your hand and you close your hand, you
open up, the quarter's gone, and they're like wow, or
you know, do a card trick or whatever. People love
wonder and I think that's maybe something I've learned is
people love wonder and some people are dicks about it
and they'll be like, I know how you did that,
and it's like, you know, okay, I also know that,
(02:28):
like you know, CGI isn't real, but I don't let
it ruin the movie, you know, And I think.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
That that maybe that's what I was thinking.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
She was asking, is like, what do you learn about
people like specific person to person when they react to
your magic? Because there are the little kids who are
amazed and they think it's cool. And there's the little
kids who you can tell are like younger kids who
you can tell they probably understand what you just did,
but they go along with it. But then there's the
little assholes that are like I saw exactly what you did.
(02:56):
So then I would immediately think, oh, that one's a
handful in the classroom to they're teach, you know.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Yeah, that was a little bitch.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Now, I know that kids are sometimes the worst because
they they don't look where like if I'm doing something
fishy with my left hand, they and I'm supposed to
like have them look at my right hand, they look
at the left hand. Because kids don't have rules and
adults have like you know, like cultural society norms where
it's like, oh, he's suggesting that he's looking at his
(03:23):
right hand, I'm gonna look at his right hand too,
and me, meanwhile, my left hand is doing something fishy.
So it's just interesting. But I will say that for
the most part, people really love it. They love wonder
and kids and adults, and adults can be very polite
about it. Most adults, even if they're not really that impressed,
they'll be like, oh, that was really cool, so interesting question.
(03:46):
Never had that one before. Here is one for this
is from Chad. I have not read it. He says, Hello,
fantastic morning show crew. It was wonderful to meet all
four of you with the great Minnesota get together. That
is fun saying hi, though a little tough when it
was all four of you at once. I had little
topics I wanted to ask each of you about, so
(04:06):
I did my best to navigate. Y'all are the nicest
and fun to talk to. Anyway, there's finally a topic
I can contribute to. Yesterday, Jannita wrote in asking about
her fear of flying and wanting to overcome it. I've
come across as a pilot on social media that does
a great job explaining different aspects of flying to help
(04:27):
people put him in ease who haven't flown much. His
name is Captain Steve with three e's, actually that's four
because it's st e e e ve. Topics range from
odd noises you hear before you take off, what happens
when a plane is struck by lightning, what turbulence really is, etc.
He takes the camera to the cockpit, the fuselage, and
(04:49):
even below wing ops to teach us what goes on
before and during a flight. It helped put my mind
at ease, knowing what's normal and what to expect on
your flight. Check him out. Q. The more you know thing.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Bai, the more you know how it goes, well, it
just kind of goes bombom. Okay, I don't know that.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yeah, anyway, I hope this helps. That's Chad from Minneapolis
and he wants a staff rider sticker, so I will
send him one. I have no fear of flying, but Jenny,
I think, is not a great flyer, right.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Yeah. No, I mean I've pretty much gotten over it.
But I used to be absolutely terrified, like panic attacks,
anxiety days up like leading up to the days of flying.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
But I've gotten over it, and I really don't.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Know exactly how I have, outside of the fact that
I know that the destination I want to get to
is going to make me so happy that I just
remember that when I start getting stressed, like I'm really
happy to be flying to wherever I'm going and this
is the way to get there.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
That's a good way to think about it.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
I think, now here's a pilot. Josh listens to our show,
and I think that he is a flight instructor, lives
in Texas and he still listens to the show. It's
a little bit long and it kind of covers some
of the things. But Josh writes in also about jan
Nita's fear of flying. I've been flying for over fifteen years.
Far As started out in small airplanes. Dave was the
(06:14):
one who actually got me into flying. Wow. And now
I fly for one of the big airlines. Oh, he's
not only an instructor, he's a commercial pilot. I can't
say which, but it's prominent in Minnesota. Wow. I'm really
proud that I got him into flying and he's a pilot.
Now that's amazing. Yes, what you hear is true. Flying
is safer than driving. You are more likely to have
(06:36):
an incident driving to the airport than flying. I understand
that giving up control is hard, but knowing what goes
into those planes and the pilots whom operate them might
help put you at ease, at least calm your hesitation.
Those jets have so many redundant systems, backups of backups,
everything from computers, hydraulics, to engines. Just testing and manufacturing
process is extensive, all overseen by the FAA. As for
(07:00):
US pilots, we've had thousands of hours on airplanes, let
alone those big jets to qualify for the role. Just
our training and those jets very extensive, detailed and grueling.
We've done dozens upon dozens of simulations of things going wrong,
everything from simple crosswind landings that's where the wind is
blowing the plane sideways across the runway and it makes
it hard to land, to engine failures and if we
(07:22):
don't make the grade, we are out. And that's not
just the initial training. We have to go back for
recurrent training every six months to a year to maintain proficiency.
One of the sayings we have is we aren't paid
to fly them. We are paid to get passengers to
their destination safely, especially when things go wrong. Hope this
(07:43):
helps out. Want to keep it short, I can help
to answer other questions you or might have about the
airlines and safety of flight. That is from Josh Darting
and circling the rim with a lick.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Okakay al, I'm gonna send that to get him a
staff writers to two. So any comments on that.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
I mean, I feel like the comment at the end
threw me off from the entire rest of the email.
But no, it's nice to hear from all of these
people because it does still ease my fear.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I just hope.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
So, Dave, just so you know what you miss history
was wanting to She just has never flown period and
she's or she never has it all, never wants so
she just like doesn't even know what the experience is like.
So I think that these are all really helpful for
her to understand better.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Okay, yeah, for sure, you know, I get it. I
think a lot of it is giving up control, and
you know, I mean, what a horrific way to die
if you're going to die in a plane crash, what
a horrific way to die. But I will tell you
this one that plane crashes are so so so uncommon.
Now you can almost statistically say they never happen commercial planes.
(08:54):
It used to be. God when I was a kid
growing up, maybe even back into the eighties, there would be.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
When the Right brothers invented flying.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Nineteen oh four Bailey, but thank you, but they a
plane would crash regularly. I mean probably three or four
times a year. There would be a serious, major fatal
plane crash in the seventies in the eighties, and it
was not common, but it was not uncommon. And knock
(09:24):
on wood, there hasn't been a major plane crash in
the United States in a very long time, can you.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, there was one, like in the last year.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
There was, but help me remember it.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
It was the collision one with like an army plane
or something. Yes, yeah, that's right or something.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
And it's just horrible, and it's so sad because you know,
you think about these people on an airplane, A lot
of them are kids. They're going somewhere happy, they're excited
to be landing, they're excited to get home or whatever,
and then all of a sudden boom. So all right,
let's not dwell on that one. Yeah, let's dwell on.
Sorry teenage love. Here we go. This may be more
(10:02):
of a question for Dave since he's a parent, but
I'm interested to hear what Jenny and Bailey think too.
My oldest daughter is fifteen, and she asked me about
having a boyfriend. I had no idea what to say
because my mom was super overprotected because my older sister
was the rebel and when she was a teenager, long
story short, she ended up pregnant at sixteen, so mom
really kept the wraps on the person writing this letter.
(10:26):
So my mom is really strict with me. I didn't
have a boyfriend till I was nineteen. Is fifteen too
young the right age? I'll take whatever advice you guys
have to offer. By the way, I've been calling for
a week to get in Boo Bash. I'll tell you what.
If you're listening, send me an email with your with
your name which will be on there, your phone number,
and your email address, and I will get you into
(10:46):
Boo Bash'd love to have you there. I don't know
what do you guys think I would say a fifteen
year old to have a boyfriend. Yeah, I would be okay,
but I would obviously keep an eye and limit their
private time.
Speaker 5 (10:58):
Right, Yeah, I think it's a good thing to have
a boyfriend, like if they have a relationship, because I know,
like I had a quote unquote boyfriend when I was
in seventh grade and all we did was like hug
before school and.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Then talk on the phone at home.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
So I think, like a relationship when you are young,
like fifteen, fourteen, whatever is going to look different in
general than what a relationship looks like when you're thirty.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
So I don't know.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
If you should necessarily hold a teenager to like the standard.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Of like, hey, this is what they could potentially be doing.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
Like, yes, somebody could get pregnant, but that's why you
be like super communicative about like what they should be
doing should not be doing, so that they're not like
in the dark there or you know, trying to. I mean,
I guess if you schoold them and you know, punish
them all the time, they're gonna act out and be
like Okay, well I'm gonna rebel then and I'm gonna
(11:56):
do what I want.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
So my sister did right exactly.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
So I just think like if you are there for
them and like be a parent but also a friend
to talk.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
About like their relationship.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
I think that I don't know, that's what I because
I know a lot of teenagers because I coached for
a speech team, and if they want to talk to
me about boys or girls, I'm like, dish, like what
do you want to tell me about?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Because sometimes they just don't have anyone to talk to
you about it mm hmm.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
And I think that could kind of put on any
like poor decisions, that's.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
My take, Jenny, anything to happen, I.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Think, well not really. I think Bareley kind of covered it,
but I don't know. I mean, I remember having quote
unquote boyfriends when I was in middle school already, and
I kissed a boy one of my boyfriends a couple
of times when I was like thirteen, but just like
pex not like you know French in right, that's how
you call it, like different, Oh did you French kiss them?
But I would see My experience was watching my older sister,
(12:56):
who I know was like doing things and like having
boyfriends all the time and always like fighting with my
mom about it. And I was like never the one
to have a boyfriend. So I feel like if I
have kids someday, I would try to balance the in
between of how my mom reacted to her versus then
like there was me who was just out there there too,
out there drinking instead.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
So yeah, so I don't know.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
But I also feel like my mom was very uptight
and so she like didn't talk to us about a
lot of things. We just got in trouble, And I
feel like I would be more of, like a little
bit more of a friend mom to a child of
that age, even though they will want nothing to do
with me.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I'm aware of that.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
I'm sure they will treat me just like I treated
my mom, which was I was a brat.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
I think like with specific content like why is like
in your life that's happening to you, you have to
be kind of like a friend mom. But then still
have you know, I'm still a parent and I'm still
gonna parent you. But if all you're doing is parenting
and admonishing your kid and like you're getting they're getting
in trouble and stuff because you're their parent, then they're
gonna want to do whatever they want.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
To do, And so you kind of have to be
like a So did you kiss Bradley?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Oh no, oh my god, Now tell me about him?
Speaker 5 (14:07):
What do you like about him and just like turning
it into a friendlier communication piece than you know.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Now you better put out a condom.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
And I'm not going to tell you why, but I'm
going to be upset if you don't, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
The whole thing is is kind of mind boggling to me.
We never had that issue with Allison, and if we did,
I never knew about it because that was a Susan
Department thing. But I I know somebody now who's got
a daughter who is she just turns seventeen, I believe,
senior in high school and she is having sex and
she's on the pill. And I thought, is that weird
(14:42):
you out to know that your daughter is like having
you know, sex with you know, a boy and they're
not using a condom this, I mean, that's just weird.
That seems so intimate to me at sixteen years old,
so incredibly intimate. I mean, condom sex is that's really
intimate too, but without a condent scene. And she's like, well,
(15:04):
she's gonna do it whether I get her on the
pill or not. And I'm like, that would be a
weird discussion, And how do you address that? I don't
know the answer to be like, Okay, my daughter is sixteen,
she's social, the boys like her. Do I get her
on the pill, which will give her basically permission to
have sex? Or do I say no, you're going to abstain,
(15:25):
and then chances are she's going to do it anyway,
and very possibly any girl can get pregnant, whether she's
the bad girl or the good girl or whatever. I
wouldn't know what to do. I really wouldn't. And I
admire parents who do. I have this friend of mine.
I admire her for being open with her daughter and
getting her on birth control because her daughter's going to
have sex, and her daughter's a fun, pretty girl who
(15:47):
the boys like. So she's probably had I don't know,
four or five boyfriends in the past couple of years.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
See, I don't think it gives them permission like, oh,
you're on birth control, so now you have permission to
go off and have sex with whoever you want. Just
makes it safer to do so. So I think it's
it's the way that you approach it. So if you're like, well,
if you're going to have sex, we'll get you on
birth control because you're being slutty or whatever. If you
approach it like that, then yeah, that's what it's going
to seem like. But I don't think it's giving permission.
(16:16):
I mean, you could give verbal permission like Okay, you
can go off and have sex with your boyfriend, but
here's like.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
The stipulations here was what might happen kind of thing.
I think.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
I don't think having birth being on birth control is
that means that you're out having sex with people.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
It just means you're on birth control period.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
All right, very good, and that is going to do it.
We are out of time for the Minnesota Goodbye. Need
some emails. What do you want to comment on? What
do you want to ask us about? What do you
want to bring up? What do you want to rant about?
What do you want to compliment us on? Maybe you
want to criticize something on the show, its like there's
too much blah or you guys need whatever. I'd love
(16:55):
to hear from you. Maybe you want to do something
different on the Minnesota Goodbye. Besides just emails, I mean,
we can do whatever you want, but I'd love to
hear from you. Send an email to Ryan's show at
KDWB dot com
I was not here for the Minnesota Goodbye. I was
in Colorado. Here's it. What's interesting. I didn't want to
listen to the show because I was up early enough
to listen to the show. But I didn't want to

hold on and then she does nothing, so it doesn't work.
And as it, let me know if you if it's
ever worked for you, because you can definitely say you know.
And I don't want to say it because she'll do
it to play Katie WB but she says she's playing
the Minnesota Goodbye, but she doesn't.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
So should I try on our Alexa, I'm here.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah, try it on yours?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Yah?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you have to plug it in.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
She's plugged in, Billy, will you put that mic up
to her? Alexa play the Minnesota Goodbye on iheartradioinning Oh and.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
She doesn't do it. No, Yeah, that's that happened yesterday too. Anyway,

Now that's amazing. Yes, what you hear is true. Flying
is safer than driving. You are more likely to have
(06:36):
an incident driving to the airport than flying. I understand
that giving up control is hard, but knowing what goes
into those planes and the pilots whom operate them might
help put you at ease, at least calm your hesitation.
Those jets have so many redundant systems, backups of backups,
everything from computers, hydraulics, to engines. Just testing and manufacturing
process is extensive, all overseen by the FAA. As for
(07:00):
US pilots, we've had thousands of hours on airplanes, let
alone those big jets to qualify for the role. Just
our training and those jets very extensive, detailed and grueling.
We've done dozens upon dozens of simulations of things going wrong,
everything from simple crosswind landings that's where the wind is
blowing the plane sideways across the runway and it makes
it hard to land, to engine failures and if we
(07:22):
don't make the grade, we are out. And that's not
just the initial training. We have to go back for
recurrent training every six months to a year to maintain proficiency.
One of the sayings we have is we aren't paid
to fly them. We are paid to get passengers to
their destination safely, especially when things go wrong. Hope this
(07:43):
helps out. Want to keep it short, I can help
to answer other questions you or might have about the
airlines and safety of flight. That is from Josh Darting
and circling the rim with a lick.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Okakay al, I'm gonna send that to get him a
staff writers to two. So any comments on that.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
I mean, I feel like the comment at the end
threw me off from the entire rest of the email.
But no, it's nice to hear from all of these
people because it does still ease my fear.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I just hope.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
So, Dave, just so you know what you miss history
was wanting to She just has never flown period and
she's or she never has it all, never wants so
she just like doesn't even know what the experience is like.
So I think that these are all really helpful for
her to understand better.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Okay, yeah, for sure, you know, I get it. I
think a lot of it is giving up control, and
you know, I mean, what a horrific way to die
if you're going to die in a plane crash, what
a horrific way to die. But I will tell you
this one that plane crashes are so so so uncommon.
Now you can almost statistically say they never happen commercial planes.
(08:54):
It used to be. God when I was a kid
growing up, maybe even back into the eighties, there would be.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
When the Right brothers invented flying.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Nineteen oh four Bailey, but thank you, but they a
plane would crash regularly. I mean probably three or four
times a year. There would be a serious, major fatal
plane crash in the seventies in the eighties, and it
was not common, but it was not uncommon. And knock
(09:24):
on wood, there hasn't been a major plane crash in
the United States in a very long time, can you.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, there was one, like in the last year.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
There was, but help me remember it.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
It was the collision one with like an army plane
or something. Yes, yeah, that's right or something.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
And it's just horrible, and it's so sad because you know,
you think about these people on an airplane, A lot
of them are kids. They're going somewhere happy, they're excited
to be landing, they're excited to get home or whatever,
and then all of a sudden boom. So all right,
let's not dwell on that one. Yeah, let's dwell on.
Sorry teenage love. Here we go. This may be more
(10:02):
of a question for Dave since he's a parent, but
I'm interested to hear what Jenny and Bailey think too.
My oldest daughter is fifteen, and she asked me about
having a boyfriend. I had no idea what to say
because my mom was super overprotected because my older sister
was the rebel and when she was a teenager, long
story short, she ended up pregnant at sixteen, so mom
really kept the wraps on the person writing this letter.
(10:26):
So my mom is really strict with me. I didn't
have a boyfriend till I was nineteen. Is fifteen too
young the right age? I'll take whatever advice you guys
have to offer. By the way, I've been calling for
a week to get in Boo Bash. I'll tell you what.
If you're listening, send me an email with your with
your name which will be on there, your phone number,
and your email address, and I will get you into
(10:46):
Boo Bash'd love to have you there. I don't know
what do you guys think I would say a fifteen
year old to have a boyfriend. Yeah, I would be okay,
but I would obviously keep an eye and limit their
private time.
Speaker 5 (10:58):
Right, Yeah, I think it's a good thing to have
a boyfriend, like if they have a relationship, because I know,
like I had a quote unquote boyfriend when I was
in seventh grade and all we did was like hug
before school and.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
Then talk on the phone at home.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
So I think, like a relationship when you are young,
like fifteen, fourteen, whatever is going to look different in
general than what a relationship looks like when you're thirty.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
So I don't know.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
If you should necessarily hold a teenager to like the standard.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Of like, hey, this is what they could potentially be doing.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
Like, yes, somebody could get pregnant, but that's why you
be like super communicative about like what they should be
doing should not be doing, so that they're not like
in the dark there or you know, trying to. I mean,
I guess if you schoold them and you know, punish
them all the time, they're gonna act out and be
like Okay, well I'm gonna rebel then and I'm gonna
(11:56):
do what I want.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
So my sister did right exactly.
Speaker 5 (11:58):
So I just think like if you are there for
them and like be a parent but also a friend
to talk.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
About like their relationship.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
I think that I don't know, that's what I because
I know a lot of teenagers because I coached for
a speech team, and if they want to talk to
me about boys or girls, I'm like, dish, like what
do you want to tell me about?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Because sometimes they just don't have anyone to talk to
you about it mm hmm.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
And I think that could kind of put on any
like poor decisions, that's.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
My take, Jenny, anything to happen, I.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Think, well not really. I think Bareley kind of covered it,
but I don't know. I mean, I remember having quote
unquote boyfriends when I was in middle school already, and
I kissed a boy one of my boyfriends a couple
of times when I was like thirteen, but just like
pex not like you know French in right, that's how
you call it, like different, Oh did you French kiss them?
But I would see My experience was watching my older sister,
(12:56):
who I know was like doing things and like having
boyfriends all the time and always like fighting with my
mom about it. And I was like never the one
to have a boyfriend. So I feel like if I
have kids someday, I would try to balance the in
between of how my mom reacted to her versus then
like there was me who was just out there there too,
out there drinking instead.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
So yeah, so I don't know.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
But I also feel like my mom was very uptight
and so she like didn't talk to us about a
lot of things. We just got in trouble, And I
feel like I would be more of, like a little
bit more of a friend mom to a child of
that age, even though they will want nothing to do
with me.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I'm aware of that.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
I'm sure they will treat me just like I treated
my mom, which was I was a brat.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
I think like with specific content like why is like
in your life that's happening to you, you have to
be kind of like a friend mom. But then still
have you know, I'm still a parent and I'm still
gonna parent you. But if all you're doing is parenting
and admonishing your kid and like you're getting they're getting
in trouble and stuff because you're their parent, then they're
gonna want to do whatever they want.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
To do, And so you kind of have to be
like a So did you kiss Bradley?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Oh no, oh my god, Now tell me about him?
Speaker 5 (14:07):
What do you like about him and just like turning
it into a friendlier communication piece than you know.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Now you better put out a condom.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
And I'm not going to tell you why, but I'm
going to be upset if you don't, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
The whole thing is is kind of mind boggling to me.
We never had that issue with Allison, and if we did,
I never knew about it because that was a Susan
Department thing. But I I know somebody now who's got
a daughter who is she just turns seventeen, I believe,
senior in high school and she is having sex and
she's on the pill. And I thought, is that weird
(14:42):
you out to know that your daughter is like having
you know, sex with you know, a boy and they're
not using a condom this, I mean, that's just weird.
That seems so intimate to me at sixteen years old,
so incredibly intimate. I mean, condom sex is that's really
intimate too, but without a condent scene. And she's like, well,
(15:04):
she's gonna do it whether I get her on the
pill or not. And I'm like, that would be a
weird discussion, And how do you address that? I don't
know the answer to be like, Okay, my daughter is sixteen,
she's social, the boys like her. Do I get her
on the pill, which will give her basically permission to
have sex? Or do I say no, you're going to abstain,
(15:25):
and then chances are she's going to do it anyway,
and very possibly any girl can get pregnant, whether she's
the bad girl or the good girl or whatever. I
wouldn't know what to do. I really wouldn't. And I
admire parents who do. I have this friend of mine.
I admire her for being open with her daughter and
getting her on birth control because her daughter's going to
have sex, and her daughter's a fun, pretty girl who
(15:47):
the boys like. So she's probably had I don't know,
four or five boyfriends in the past couple of years.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
See, I don't think it gives them permission like, oh,
you're on birth control, so now you have permission to
go off and have sex with whoever you want. Just
makes it safer to do so. So I think it's
it's the way that you approach it. So if you're like, well,
if you're going to have sex, we'll get you on
birth control because you're being slutty or whatever. If you
approach it like that, then yeah, that's what it's going
to seem like. But I don't think it's giving permission.
(16:16):
I mean, you could give verbal permission like Okay, you
can go off and have sex with your boyfriend, but
here's like.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
The stipulations here was what might happen kind of thing.
I think.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
I don't think having birth being on birth control is
that means that you're out having sex with people.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
It just means you're on birth control period.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
All right, very good, and that is going to do it.
