Speaker 1 (00:00):
Bailey and I were having a discussion about religion a
little while ago, and without getting too deep into the
weeds on that one, I'm listening to a fascinating podcast
and I want to recommend it to you if you
like true crime. I discovered it I was at Snapped
the other day looking for something to listen to. It's
called Deadly Mirage Deadly Mirage, and it is a dateline
(00:22):
kind of a podcast, and it's basically about this religious
couple and then she meets another guy who is also
very religious. The other guy kills the husband and he
decides it's God's will that he should kill this husband
(00:43):
because it's God's plan for them to be together. And
he actually and she does too, actually justifies the fact
that he murdered him because that's God's plan for them
to be together. And they sit and they tap their
phone call and they're like, yeah, Heavenly Father, please forgive
us of what we've done, but we know it's your
(01:05):
plan for us to be together, and it's justified that
we have sinned, but you know that's your plan. Blah
blah blah. And I'm listening to this and the cops
that are commenting are like, I've never heard anybody use
religion as a justification to murder somebody so you could
steal their wife. And it was just like the things
(01:26):
that people will use religion to justify.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yeah, isn't it one of the commandments that you can't
covet your neighbor's wife something like that?
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I think there's a what are
the what are the ten commandments? So thou shalt not kill,
thou shall not steal thou.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Happy hours at five?
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Okay, that is one. That is the seventh commandment? Yeah, kill, kill, steal,
covet Dabor's wife, Commit adultery, wear white after labor day.
I'm not really sure.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Whatkay, So commit adultery, not steal, honor, Your father and
your mother are not bear false witness, keep the Sabbath holy,
have no other gods not killed, not murder.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Those seem like the same thing.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Not covet. We said that, Okay, you shall not make
idols and you shall not give false testimony.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
What does make idols mean?
Speaker 1 (02:15):
There should be no other gods before you, just God, oh,
just the God, just the Lord, our God.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Idols to worship.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
You shall not take the Lord's name in vain, remember
to keep okay, Yeah, make any idols work.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
I don't know. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
I think that means don't make another god. There is
no other.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
God, different commandment.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I don't know. This is what you know. This is
the AI condensed version. So I feel like it told me.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Anyways, a fascinating podcast, and if you want to check
it out, it's called Deadly Mirage. And it's interesting because
the first thing when I hear this story and I
hear them talking, you want to see what they look like. Yes,
and she is kind of a attractive yet funny looking blonde,
probably thirty five years old, and her husband is a
(03:02):
good looking guy. They were all swingers. By the way.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I was like, wait, the husband that was murdered or
the guy that wanted to be with her.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
The husband was, you know, a bald guy, good looking guy, beard, whatever,
and the other one was a young twenty four year
old firefighter and they were all religious. But apparently, I
don't know, there's more to it. I don't want to
get too deep into it, but it's really good show
recommending that one.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
I feel like that twenty four year old's going to
h you double hockey stick well, I don't.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Want to spoiler it. Have you ever listened to a
podcast and you get bored so you like you google
it to see how it ended.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
I don't listen to podcasts like that. I listen to
ones that are like weekly and talk about random shit.
I don't listen to our episode. I need to listen
to five.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
But I do that for like books, though, Dave, Like,
I'll get fifty percent through a book and I'll be like,
I don't know if I like this, and then I'll
look it up on Goodreads and see that other people
don't like it. I'll be like, kind of dang it. Well,
I'm already halfway through, so I guess i'll finish it.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
I've done that before, where it's like you're reading a
book like I'm just not getting into this so and
then you've wasted, like, you know, reading half of the book.
All right, Emails, let's check and see what we got here, Dave,
Jenny Bailey, please don't say my name. I need some
quick advice, and Dave might be the best answer. I'm
going to the Boundary Waters for the first time next month,
(04:18):
and I'm very nervous. I'm worried. I worry that I'm
extremely unprepared, although the group I'm going with has all
the gear, equipment, tense, et cetera. My boyfriend absolutely loves camping,
especially backpack camping, and I told him I would give
it a try. I love hiking, kayaking, being outdoors, but
I've never done anything this remote. The most camping I've
done is car camping at a popular state park. I
(04:39):
think the idea of how remote it will be, how
dark it will be, is what freaks me out the most.
The route we chose is very beginner friendly, though I
just have no idea what to expect. Dave any advice.
I went there with the boy Scouts in twenty sixteen
and it was my favorite boy Scout trip, and I
also was nervous. I was nervous because I'd never gone
on a self contained week long trip like that. Before.
(05:04):
You carry all your food. There's no convenience stores, there's
no a little grocery store out in the boundary waters.
You carry all your food everything, you carry it in.
I will recommend a mosquito net face mask because the
bugs can be bad, and there were many times when
we just sat around with the out on the water
(05:27):
there's no mosquitos out in the water, really, but once
you get to the campsites, the bugs can be bad.
So invest in a mosquito net face mask.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
What does that look like? Is that like a net
around your hat or it hangs.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
If you put it on like a hood, kind of
like a hood and you can see through, it keeps
the bugs out. You will be You'll be glad you
had it. Bug spray for sure. And then I'm trying
to think if there's anything else you might see a bear.
We saw a few bears from a distance.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
You got to tie up, which you do You're going
with people who already know.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
I think we tied our food up, or we had
it in a bear box, I think, and I don't remember,
but be prepared for that too. Yeah, because there are bears.
You don't want them to take your food. You don't
want them to wander into your camp. For sure.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
I know people who would go and they packed like
way too much food because they thought they'd want to
snack at night. But then they had already tied their
food up to keep it away from the bear. So
then they realized that that was a dumb mistake to
bring all the sexual food because they thought they'd be
snacking at night.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Okay, interesting, Yeah, you will do probably some portaging. Bring
a GPS. Absolutely, make sure somebody has your GPS.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
What do you mean by that though, because my GPS
is my phone?
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Okay, yeah, I guess that's true. That's a good point
I brought. This is maybe back before phone GPS got popular,
so I had a handheld GPS, and the boys would
always say how fast are we going? How much farther
till the next campsite. Other things is the campsites are
on demand, they're not reserved, so it's kind of first come,
first serve.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Which I've heard like some people have poor and gotten
to so many locations and how to keep going, keep going.
So I've heard that like if you if it seems busy,
go to the first one you see as available. Kind
of true risk having to keep portaging to new ones
because there's not enough space.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
True, And I would say camp earlier in the day
before people decide to camp. If that works for you,
And other than that, it's it's great. I mean, the
remoteness is part of the joy of the boundary waters.
Because there's no motorized craft, they limit the number of
permits so it's never busy. And get a map because
(07:35):
the maps just kind of make it fun. So you
can see, like, how, oh, that island is right there.
And I will give you one more hint. If you're
looking at the map and it looks kind of like
what you're looking at but not exactly, then you're in
the wrong place because the maps are one hundred percent
spot on.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
We fooled ourselves many times by going, well, I think
that's that rock there, and I think that's that island there,
but that one that's not on the map, Well, it
turned out we were not in the right place. So
trust your map. Have fun. Wear a mosquito net hood
right next one. Let's see state fair shirt idea one
(08:15):
of seven listeners. Okay, that's kind of cute. That's from Nicole.
Thank you. Brianna wrote in a bunch some of them,
I like. I like this one. I break for Cariboo.
What do you guys think of I break for Cariboo.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
I don't get it, Like the coffee.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Place, the coffee place, I break for Cariboo. How can
you not get that? I break? I put on my
breaks for Cariboo coffee.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
I know, but like we don't say that.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
No, but it's still like I like it. I don't know,
I like is Q Yeah, Dave Ryan, Minnesota's original influencer.
I think the thing is we got to figure whether
people will wear this or not.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
Yeah, so it has some like dual purpose, not just yes,
that's a great joke that Dave says. Yeah, well it's
not really a joke. It's actually quite factual. But are
you gonna wear a shirt that says that?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Probably not?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Yeah, probably not. No, Yes, I even wear it, Dave. No, right, Yes,
I'm single. Please come mingle.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yes, that's already in the books.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Is it in there?
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Okay, good, it's been submitted.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
We also submitted You're kind of hot. Yes, I do
like the eyebreak for Caribou because I just think that's
people here love Cariboo.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
They do, indeed.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
But I also don't want to give Caribou thousands of
dollars of free advertising.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
They would need to pay us.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
All right, thank you, Breeve appreciate that one. Hitting delete
on that one. There are people that are still writing
in that want to advertise on the live stream on
the video. We don't we unfortunately, don't do that anymore.
So I will get back to them and let them
know that we don't do that anymore. Here's one from Nova.
They say, funions greater than sign Dorito's No on God
(09:50):
Dark Lick. Funions greater than Dorito's discuss Jenny.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
No, absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
I mean, like, there's probably certain flavors of Doritos. Sure,
but if you you are giving me the og ones,
the Natcha cheese or the cool Ranch, no, no chance.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Funions are better than those.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Okay. One Nita writes in called the T shirt ideas
for the State Fair Hell Yeah Pimpin, which is two
inside yeah, I think. And the story behind behind Hell
Yeah Pimping was we were at Star Party probably twenty
years ago, and we were interviewing ray J, who was
in the Kim Kardashian sex tape that made her famous,
(10:26):
and so I had brought him a button, like a
button that goes on your shirt with a picture of
Kim Kardashian with a big green check mark on it,
like yep, done that. And then I'm talking to him
and he's pretty cool. I said, so you got two
cell phones? What are they for? Well, one's for business
and ones for pimping, and I said, hell yeah, pimpin,
(10:46):
And that became like a infamous hallmark of the show
for a while.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
I still say it my every day It's in my
every day vocabulary.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Hell yeah, yeah, pimpin.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
And then another shirt she comes up with is that
shit pisses me the fuck off, which is funny, but
of course we can't do that one. And I think, honestly,
that is all of the new emails that we have.
So I will open it up to the floor. The
floor is open. Anything that you would like to discuss,
Bailey Jay, Is there anything going on in my life?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Just anything at all you want to talk about. For example,
we were talking about give something Away Day today today
is International Gives Something Away Day, and I said, I
want to give away all the books in my downstairs library,
which is not a library at all, but there's a
ton of books. And you said, take them to half
Price Books.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
Yeah, half price Books. I've I've brought lots of books there.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
And the only thing is when you bring anything there, books, DVDs, consoles, whatever,
they barely give you any money for them, but to
get rid of them. Yeah, I usually bring my books
to the closest little library to me, because there are
so many little libraries everywhere in neighborhoods and.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Talking about like the free little every little.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
Library, small library, the free little library.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
And usually I throw my books in there, and then
it's honest kind of fun because every time I walk by, I.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Can be like, did somebody take my books?
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Were?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
My book's a good option? So I think putting them
in the free little libraries is also a good good idea. Dave,
we have some random books that are in the breakroom
right now, and if those stay there for another few days, yeah,
I'm going to take them and put them in a
free little Okay.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
It's interesting. On a side note, we in the kitchen breakroom,
free stuff will appear because people will bring by stuff
for the radio station and the DJs, and God love them.
A lot of the time we can't use them or
we already have so many. So for example, last week,
the City of Plymouth must have visited one of the
(12:39):
iHeart Shows stations in our building and they left some
City of Plymouth great look and travel mugs and coffee mugs,
I mean not ceramic, but the ones that are insulated
like a Stanley and there's one that said city of Plymouth,
and I said, that's for me, So I took it.
Shout out city of Plymouth. Yeah, it's beautiful, and I
used it camping over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
Oh nice.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
So there are other things like muffins or pizza or
tacos or bags of bread or chips or whatever will
appear in the break room.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
And now there's a bunch of books in the break room.
So I feel like if those stay for longer, I
will take them.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
What is something that you get for free at your workplace?
Literally we get I can't think of anything that we
consistently get for free here.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
I mean food, though, Okay, restaurants will drop off food
hoping they get a free plug on the radio, or
if it's a National Donut Day, all these donut places
drop off for donuts.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I guess that's true. Yeah, I was thinking like something
that the company provides. Oh yeah, like the company provides
really nothing.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
We have a water machine.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
We do have a water machine, free bad copy. Once
in a while. If we really want tickets, we can
ask for them, but we don't get them.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
They're notteed, no, never knowing. I'm on the list for
a handful of things.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
Well, so salty because I wanted to see Hosier at
the Minnesotaya Club this week, and apparently we only got
a few pairs of tickets for the entire festival. Last year,
we had so many. I got my brother in law
his friends from taking.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Oh wow.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
When I was a kid, my mom used to work
for Pillsbury, so she would bring home pastries and donuts
and like things like that all the time. So we
always had like a box of donuts at home because
she worked for Pillsbury.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
That's what they gave you for free.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
I'm gonna get a job at Old Dutch.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Do it, and then you can bring chips.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
This girl I knew in high school, Hannah Arklen, her
dad worked for Lay's and they always had chips at
her house always.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
That would be awesome. I think Angie Taylor's mom worked
for Old Dutch and they always had chips too, So jealous.
You know somebody who works for like Benjamin Moore Paints
or Toro or something like that, It's like, where are you?
What are you doing this weekend?
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Well, the company's flying us off to San Juan Puerto, Ricosh.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
That sounds nice.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
And it's like, oh man, that is cool. I won't
complain too much because I get to go to the
iHeartRadio Music Festival and I get some vikings tickets for free.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Well speak for yourself. Me andom missed out on everything.
Jingle Ball Star Party.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
You really you don't get any of that stuff?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Anything.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Back in the day, we used to go to Disney
and Universal every single year. We would go during their
off season to advertise for the upcoming spring break season.
And it was super cool. We broadcast I think from
New York one time, La Universal Studios, lots of Disney.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
The Olympics.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
We did the Olympics too. We did them in Australia
and Salt Lake City.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
This was back. It was a different world back then
when companies would budget wildly for promotions. So Coca Cola
flew us over there along with dozens, if not hundreds
of other DJs from around the country, to broadcast from
the Sydney Olympics from the Coca Cola Coca Cola village.
I think it was just like the coke products in there.
(15:51):
And they gave us expensive ski jackets, they gave us
expensive backpacks. It was really fucking cool, and those days
are just done now.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I feel like every job I've ever had, I always
come in to it late.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
A little bit late.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Yeah, Like, oh, it's so it's COVID right now, so
you can't go on the New York trip you would
normally go on. Or oh it's a COVID right now,
so you can't go on the Washington, d C. Trip
you would normally go on. And it's like, okay, great,
tell us about.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
The benefits or perks of where you work. I mean,
if you work for all of America, do you get
gift cards? Do you get to shop like after hours?
Or do you get free passes to Nick Universe or
so what are your perks? I mean, I love telling
the story. It's not a great story, but it really
struck me. I went to a business called Marketing Architects
(16:40):
and I don't even know if they're still around anymore,
to record some voiceovers, and they have like a chef
in the kitchen to make lunch. After lunch, there's a
wide open kitchen with grab and ghost snacks for free,
potato chips, pop, gatorade, Pepsi's milk, whatever, and it's like
you can just walk in and take it like, well, yeah,
(17:02):
sure we'll do. People abuse it, well, I mean, nobody
comes in with a shopping bag and loads up.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
They should, but.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Let us know what perks you have at your business.
Last story, I worked at a radio station that had
what they called the honor box, So it was instead
of a vending machine, it was a box full of
candies and chips and things like that. Yeah, with a
little coin slot, and it was the honor system. So
if you got a bag of you know, a Frido's,
(17:31):
you would put your dollar in the coin slot, and
if you didn't have a dollar that day, you would
come back the next day and pay your dollar, or
maybe you'd put in an extra dollar to make up
for people who didn't pay. It lasted about a month
because those fucking DJs. DJs are just terrible, terrible teas
slimy people. Those fucking DJs assaulted that honor box and
(17:54):
took her for everything that she had without pain. So
it didn't last long, all right, What is your story?
What is your perke at work? Send it perk at work?
Send it to Ryan Show at KDWB dot com.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
M
