Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, We're starting the Minnesota good Bye with an
email from Taylor. She says, I'm Taylor that sends in
the Honey Game cards here and there. Met Jenny at
the fair this weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Yes, we met, she said.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
I was so excited to meet her. I need to
send a disclaimer that I am normally a very conversational person,
but really clam up with you all. I'm sure so
many others feel this same way.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Oh no, Taylor, I don't.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
I mean, we didn't have a long conversation, but I
feel like we had a quick chat.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
It was great.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
It is funny how people will come up and they like,
I'm starstruck, and I'm like, dude, I grew up on
a chicken farm. But I get it. And sometimes you
turn like really shy, you know. I mean, if I
got to meet, like, I don't know, Jason from the
Jason Show, I'd be like, one, yeah. Questions from the game,
what was your favorite childhood TV show? Depends on how

(00:53):
far back you're going. I'm gonna say Captain Kangaroo or
The Brady Bunch, and then Happy Days.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
What came to mind for me immediately was like more
teenage years probably, or like middle school rocket Power.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
I love the show rocket Power. Oh so good.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
What would your warning label say if you came with one? Ooh,
that's a tough one. Let's come back to that in
a second. What is your guilty pleasure? Snack? Cheese and
meat sticks? That is a danger. I sometimes will go
home and have something very healthy and I'm like bor,
I'm stroll hungry. I'll get in the refrigerator drawer meat

(01:30):
sticks and slices of varieties of cheese.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
I always say it wrong, but Bailey can correct me.
Is it tolenty to Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Yes, the gelato to lenty tlenty.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Tlenty gelato comes in a pint and I can't control
myself and there's three servings in it. So next thing
I know, I've had all three servings because I ate
the whole pint. So yes, that's mine guilty pleasure snack.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Oh flame and hot cheetos. Okay, good bye, I could
eat a whole bag.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Bailey just walked in. What was your favorite childhood TV show?

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Scooby doo Oh?

Speaker 4 (02:00):
For a while, Rugrats was great, all that, I don't
know anything kids watched back in the day.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
And then here's the one we had to think about
a little bit. What would your warning label say if
you came with one. Mine would say gets bored easily
and also doesn't want to come to your event.

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Yeah, mine would say if she starts crying, she probably
won't be able to stop for a good amount of
time and can sometimes be a little stinky.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, mine would probably be like hyper fixates lives in
fantasy world.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
While I'm done, Okay, Secretary Bree sends in an email
and it says, hey, friends, just need to send a
quick email as I am fresh off to hand deliver
a staff writer sticker. Okay, so the listener that lives
in Apartment one in Howard Lake, Your sticker was hand
delivered to a very confused looking young man. Although I

(02:58):
understand I made I've looked a little frightening. I'm fresh
off of a weekend up north with no makeup for days.
I documented the hand delivery adventure on TikTok at Brianna
Quinn if you want to check that out. Won't keep
you long. I'll see at the fair on Thursday. Oh
and I just celebrated my four months yesterday Tuesday. Woohoo. Okay,
gotta run catch up on the podcast but first, Dave,

(03:22):
my oldest son Elijah is so shy but adamant. He's
going to ask you to take him flying, But don't worry.
You haven't out. I told him you don't take kids
under age sixteen. Not sure if you'll do seven years
from now, but he's if he's still asking, see you soon.
I did take brief flying, I think last Summery and
her and her husband met me out of the Buffalo
Airport and I took her a flying for a while.

(03:43):
So let's see delete that one, and okay, here's one.
The other day, we were talking about what we call
our significant other, like whether it's like you know, I
don't know, fart box, or whether you have a funny
nickname not de or honey or whatever. I call my
BF boyfriend and my friends don't really like it and

(04:08):
tell me to call him by his real name. I
tried that, but Dale just doesn't seem really right. We're
seven and a half years into it. He started calling
me GF GF. Fast forward two a year or so ago.
We had a big fight and even then he asked
me to call me him by his name, and I
still can't. It's embedded in my brain for life. I'm
thinking of ever marrying him. He's going to change his

(04:29):
name to husband. What do you think? Lol? Anyway, I'd
love for you to do a Minnesota goodbye on couples
who use their GPS when you go on vacations and
get into huge fights over directions. I have Android, he
has Apple. It makes me fucking insane. Okay, well we

(04:50):
just use one of our GPS's.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
Yeah, I don't know why you're both navigating and there's
always a passenger Princess, that's the person who's navigating.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Here exactly right, yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Or it's just like up on a screen if you
have a fancy car, you know.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Right exactly. I use the Apple Car Play and it's
a miracle. GPS is a miracle. Is you know what
else is a miracle? When it tells you there's traffic
backed up ahead of you? How the fuck does your
phone know and turn your map red if four ninety
four is backed up from one sixty nine to thirty five?
W How does it know? How does it know?

Speaker 3 (05:23):
Phones are all connected to Google and then Google can
track that?

Speaker 5 (05:26):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (05:26):
What it is?

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Is it like if our phones see us going really slowly,
it will send a message to whatever and then it'll
I don't.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Think it's a matter of they can tell the how
fast we're going. I think it's a matter of it
can tell how many phones are in a specific area
at a specific time.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Oh, you think that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
I think that's what Okay.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
So it can tell that the Dunwoody exit, there's five
hundred cars along that exit, So it's going to put
the red line there because it knows there's a ton
of cars.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Okay. I never I thought up until the other day.
I thought it was traffic cameras, and then I thought,
there's no traffic camera around this part of town, so
it must be the concentration of phones that are there.
That totally makes sense. Genius, Jenny, all right. Last one,
Bailey stepped out to go to the bathroom. Apparently, she said,
I listened to Minnesota Goodbye while I'm folding laundry, which

(06:13):
is almost every day with three kids. I like all
the topics, and I thought I would add a stupid
one based on my husband and I recently. When I
was in high school, I was using the soap and
windshield wipers and after a few seconds, my boyfriend at
the time said stop. He said, if I held the
windshield wiper fluid on for too long, my car would explode.

(06:35):
I'm not kidding when I say I didn't put this
together that it wasn't true until well into my twenties.
So if you push the windshield wiper spray thing too long,
your car will explode.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
Okay, what the heck?

Speaker 1 (06:48):
She never even questioned it until in her twenties. My husband,
who was in his fifties, just discovered that if you
press the start button on the microwave, it just runs
for thirty seconds.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Off all of it like that.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
I was going to say, I don't think they are yeah,
he says. She says, for thirty plus years he's been
typing in thirty seconds each time he wants to heat
up his coffee. I don't know if that's true. I
know most microwaves now have a plus thirty seconds button.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
Yeah, which is nice.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
What stupid things did you learn or believe until later
in life? I would have to think of about that. Oh, well,
here's one that I brought it up, and whenever I
bring it up, people go, you're so old and stupid.
Most garage door openers, when you close them, you don't
have to enter the code because the door's already open,

(07:37):
so you just push the inner button and it'll close.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Oh did you not know that? I mean, I don't
have a garage. No, that doesn't concern me.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
Thanks for a great show, Dave. I've been listening to
you since the nineties with Lee and Jenny. I look
forward to you and Fallon's podcast every week. You have it.
When my husband overhears it, he says, is that Jenny
and Fallon again, love all your distinct voices. Have a
wonderful day for From Laura.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Here's something I thought of.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
So when I was a kid, like little bitty kid,
my sister would go to kindergarten and I was stayed
at home, so my dad and my mom, depending on
who I was with because they were divorced, they would
take me to Coburns, which is a grocery store up
in Saint Cloud, which is where I lived, and we
only ever got donuts there, so I would call it

(08:23):
the donuts Store, and that's what I thought it was called.
And I truly did not realize Coeburns was the name
of that place until I was probably in high school.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
I think the donut donuts.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Well, that's funny, and that's just what it was called
the donut store, and it's still there anyway. That's a
special memory if you have a kid that's at home
when the other ones at school take that kid to
get a donut macs.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
That's all I remember from like being four years old,
is going to the door.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
War Uh. Somebody sent in and it's very cute. Sarah
sent in a picture of her mother in law taken
back in the seventies. And people will do this once
in a while. They'll say, this woman looks just like Jenny.
And she is in her seventies now, so she doesn't
look like that anymore. But it is a very beautiful
kind of a Marcia Brady looking. One of those black
and white photo booths where you would sit in the

(09:11):
photo booth and there would be a curtain, you'd close
the curtain, you would spin the stool to get it
to the right height. It would say look here, and
for a dollar or whatever, it would take four black
and white pictures in a little strip, and she does
she looks a lot like Jenny.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
I feel like if you put the eye makeup that
Jenny does onto that girl, she would look more like Jenny,
and also just different.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
Eyebrows but all the rest.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yeah, it's kind of like the eye structure, I think
is what I said, looks a little bit different, but yeah,
it's She's a very beautiful woman, So thank you for something.
She's hot, because I feel like a lot of times
day will just show me a picture of a blonde
and be like, this looks like you, and I'll be like, ah.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
No, not what I look like you look.

Speaker 5 (09:51):
I mean.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
I showed a picture the other day of Joe Elliott,
the lead singer and def Leopard, and I said, Jenny,
this guy looks just like you.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
I was like, oh yeah, and if you look up.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
If you look up Joe Elliott Death Leopard D E
F L E P P A R D, it looks
just like Jenny. That's what Jenny looks like. Okay, I'm
kidding with you guys. By the way, Jenny is not
nearly as attractive as Joe Elliot.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Okay, but my hair is better than his. Okay, yeah,
a thick.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Yeah. It's in my book. I think one of the
chapters is called most Young Most old People were young ones.
Oh and I kind of thought that was kind of funny.
Most old people were young ones. Well they all were,
but we forget that sometimes. So you look at this
hot probably it is taken back in the seventies, and
she's probably twenty years old back then. Now she's seventy.

(10:39):
So you look at somebody like that and it's like, man,
the life that she lived, because she wasn't always an
old bag. No, I mean, think about it, not to
call your mother in law an old bag and being funny.
But you look at like a seventy eight year old
man in a Rascal scooter and you go, he's a
seventy eight year old man and a Rascal scooter. Currently
he is, yeah, but at one time he was. He

(11:00):
was a test pilot, he was an engineer, he was
an acrobat in the circus. You look at some old
bag who's being pushed around in a wheelchair at the
state Fair, and you're going, God's, yes, she is currently old,
but at one time she was like the toast of
the town, Bailey.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
And also like with this new social media generation, now
there's going to be such more of a digital footprint
for us. For if we were to have kids and
grandkids to look back on. I hope that if I
do have kids and grandkids they look back at the
photo of me and Tahiti on a beach in a swimsuit.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
That's the only photo that I want them to be
like Grandma, Grandma slate.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Damn, look at that assaw, Grandma, I don't need.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Like kids and grandkids saying that.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
But it's kind of like the first time I ever
saw my grandma. She was the fair, the first fairest
of the fair for Fondolac County is fair really, and
we found the picture of her when she got it,
and I think she like didn't even want to enter
her friend's force or two.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
Whatever it was.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
It was a cute story and we found the picture
put it on display. She was so embarrassed by it.
Oh so beautiful and like, yeah, we would not let
her live that down.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
Once we found that photo and we were like, Grandma.

Speaker 5 (12:14):
I feel like, regardless of what will happen with your
grandkids and kids or whatever, the style is going to
be so different that it'll just still look like an
old picture when they see your rocking, rocking bot on Tahiti.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
That's true, it'll be like what a dated look.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Let me just let me just tell you something is
as you are young and attractive. And if you are
young and attractive right now, man, I'm going to tell
you enjoy that shit to its fullest because it is
not going to last forever. As as somebody who used
to be moderately attractive a long time ago and now

(12:48):
I look like somebody hit me in the face with
a shoe. Let me tell you you will miss being
young and attractive, so enjoy that shit. But it's kind
of like saying, enjoy your kids while you're young. While
they're young. Well, you try, but you can't freeze that moment.
You can't freeze it. They're gonna get old.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Sometimes they're little issues and they are enjoying them the
whole time.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
Well true, but you will miss being young and attractive
when you are old and there are veins growing in
your face. So I'm just giving your heads up.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
All right.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
That's it. Have a great day, Thank you for listening
to the Minnesota Goodbye. Our email is always Ryan Show
