Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here comes the Minnesota goodbye. Let's see what we got here, Dave.
I heard you talking on the show about oral exams
and chat GPT and taking tests on chromebooks and schools.
We were talking about how oral exams are making a
slight bit of a comeback because you sit down with
a student and you go, okay, so tell me the
importance of Benjamin Franklin's discovery of electricity or whatever, and
(00:23):
they can't cheat because they have to give you an
oral answer. So they said, I have a high school
freshman and have a few insights to share. First, when
kids have to write papers at our school, they're required
to write them in canvas. When they do this, the
teacher can actually go back and watch and fast forwarded
real time how it was composed, kind of like a
screen recording. So if it's copied and pasted in big
(00:44):
chunks or written suspiciously, it'd be more apparent to the teacher.
Of course, they also have software they used to detect
chat GPT text patterns. As far as tests, they're often
taken online, but proctering software is used. They could record
the student's face during the test.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Absolutely, I would hate that.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Wow. So they go on for a little bit, but
they said, I love you guys. I've been listening for
thirty plus years, have been through several cross country moves
on iHeart I currently live in Utah and love that
I can still get my daily dose of Minnesota winter weather,
which by the way, I don't miss. Thank you Beth
from Utah. Love that that you can listen. I mean,
(01:25):
that's so cool. There's so many people who have lived
out of state, moved out of state and still listened
to the Minnesota Goodbye. And this morning on the show,
we had a listener who is in prison in Phoenix, Maryland,
and I don't know if they've ever lived here, but
I just appreciate so much the number of people who
found our show that have never lived here. That always
blows me away that we're preferred over your local morning show.
(01:50):
But yeah, let's see. Juanita's here with a random rant.
Are you ready? Okay, let's pull up Juanita and her
random rant. I get to put a couple of buttons
in the right position, and I think we're ready to go.
Jannita take it away.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Yea Hey, So this week's Brint is about the medic
cases that these goddamn doctors keep trying to prescribe you.
So come March eighteenth of next year, I'll be probably
doing my rants line from my hospital man, because come
part seventeen, I'll be undergoing total nee replacement surgery on
my right knee. I've already had total nee replacement surgery
(02:28):
on my left knee before.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Now.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I currently have arthritis in my fingers, and I right
now I take id be probing for it. But my
doctor said it as a medication that they could prescribe
me to take away the pain in my fingers, And
I asked her, I said, so, what's the side effects
on this medication? Well, the side effects of suicidal thoughts
and constant diarrhea. Fitch, constant diarrhea, suicidal thoughts. So instead
(02:54):
of walking around looking like I'm trying to grab a bar,
I could I could possibly be oh myself or consistently
shit on myself.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I beg to differ.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
What the fuck is wrong with these goddamn doctors. Why
are the side effects of having these medications worse than
the problem that you're caught that you have? Are you
fucking kidding me?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
No?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Thank you God, These goddamn doctors pissed me the fuck off.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Well that's my reference week.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
I'll talk to you guys next week.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Bye, uh, thank you, Juanita. I think that when they
do those studies, and I don't know, but I think
I've read somewhere that that suicidal thoughts might show up,
but it also could be a little bit dum anecdotal.
So in other words, let's say, if I give Bailey
a magic bean, or I give five hundred people a
magic bean that's made out of plastic. It's harmless. I say,
(03:45):
keep it in your pocket for luck. There might be
four percent of people who have suicidal thoughts that is
not associated with the magic bean, because the magic bean
is a piece of benign plastic. But they have to
put that in the study because those thoughts are there
at a significant percentage that it might be a factor.
Now I don't know that's in this case, but I
(04:06):
know in medical studies they go, oh, yeah, like chronic
diarrhea and urge to bake an angel food cake. You know,
they just might show up, but they might not have
anything to do with the drum.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
That magic being gave me anal leakage, so I well
know I did, Yeah, I know and it really sucks,
but I'm being really brave about it. And I am
wearing a diaper.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
So I know what, Bailey, I want to say. Not
all heroes wear cakes. True, So thank you.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I do have to say.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Wannie to sent me a very nice message yesterday. But
on top of that, she did also say, ps, my
cousin Nuke Nuke wants to meet you. Trust me, stay
far away.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I closed the email dialogue box here, so if you
want to install for me for a second, just for
a second, if you're going to come up with something again.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
With regular guy, I feel like I every time.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Yeah, Tony, how's paddle board guy?
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I got that one.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
There's just not much to say. Oh, okay, to be honest,
So you, however, are moving in a direction where maybe you.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Were moving in. We're moving in together, we're having a baby,
but we are no.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
But you, guys, do you feel like you're going to
have some kind of conversation of are you banging anyone else?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Probably?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Well I can almost guarantee he's not, and I know
I'm not. So yeah, probably this weekend because I'm going
to see him quite a bit this weekend. I literally
have like barely anything to do this weekend, which is bonkers.
It is crazy for you morning plans every day, but
that's it.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
I have too much in the next couple of days
and it's driving me a little bonkers. To use Bailey's
favorite expression, Yeah, I've got a meeting that, I've got
lunch with a friend, and then Carson's coming home, so
I got to pick him upt the airport tonight. And
then when Carson comes home, I love him so much,
but he gets bored and he doesn't realize that I've
been running all day and I don't want to go
(05:58):
to the movie. I don't want to go there. I
don't want to go here. I don't want I just
want to come home and relax. But He's like, Dad,
I found a movie. It starts at four point thirty
at Eden Prairie, And I'm like, I don't want to
tell him no, but I also don't want to go.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
My question for you is is he asking you to
go or does he just want you to pay for everything?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Oh? No, he's he doesn't care about that.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
No, I don't expect my parents to entertain me whatsoever.
Anytime I've gone home my parents have I've just I
almost am always Like back in the day, I would
just go hang out with my friends all the time,
and my parents would get pissed at me that I
was like never even in the house.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Well, I think that, you know, he does his share
of going out with his friends, and I love that
he's got a million friends. But I think that's his
way of doing something together because Carson and I have
a lifetime of doing things together. I mean I could
sit here and list all that we used to do
so much together and now I you know, see him
a few weeks out of the year, right, So I
think that's his idea of, like, let's do something together.
(06:55):
And I don't like to say no because you know,
that's you know, that's what we like to do. Yeah,
he'll probably want to go snowboarding at Highland this year,
and I think my snowboarding days, honestly are kind of
behind me. I don't want to go get now what
because you're rickety? Now I'm rickety. Yeah, And when you
fall when you're forty, it's so funny because people who
are in their forties think they're really old, and it's
(07:16):
like row. Now that I've turned forty, you know, I
can't walk anymore and I can't see. It's like shut
the front door at forty years old. It's all relative.
You know, you think you're old. But but if you
think you hurt when you fall on your snowboard at forty,
wait till you get a couple of more years on you,
(07:36):
and then you don't want to even get off the
lift when you're older because you might fall.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
The lift is still terrifying, no matter how good the
lift is terrifying to me, still terrifying, not so much
as when I used to ski, but as a snowboarder,
it is not fun to get off the list.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Fucking hate getting off the lift. Yes, it's the worst
terrifying thing because there's usually a giant hill. Yep, you
might slip and fall. If you do, the snowboarders behind
you're going to crash into you, or they're going to
stop the lift and make you look stupid. Or you're
going to crash into thirteen year old Kayla who didn't
get out of the way when she got off the lift.
(08:13):
You know what I'm talking about. There's somebody in front
of you who didn't get off the lift right and
they're standing there. You get off the lift ha ha
bunk and you're knocking over thirteen year old Kayla and
you feel terrible. Yeah, all right, here we go. We're
talking about Albert Lee and the Taylor. I hope that's
how you say your name. Wrote in with some ideas
(08:35):
for Albert Lee. And this was for our friend from Turlock, California.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Yes, he's coming to Albert Lee soon and he wanted ideas.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Hey, first of all, I can read these tow you,
but I'm going to send this over to you too.
The Bend in the road. If you like to drink,
you can get the best mules. There so many flavors
to choose from. Summertime. Fountain Lake and Albert Lee is
a really nice lake to swim or they get a
great path to walk around about three or four miles.
It's beautiful willows in New Richland. They have great food.
The fish tacos are my favorite. Downtown Austin is super nice.
(09:05):
You're planning on going to the Spam Museum. You're already downtown.
Swing into Piggy Blues for a great meal. Diamond Joe's
Casino in Northwood, Iowa, maybe a twenty minute drive from
Albert Lee. On thirty five South. That's the first giant,
big casino when you cross the state line going south.
It's on your right hand side. It's called Diamond Joe's
and it's in the middle of nowhere. I've driven by
(09:27):
it and go why would they have a casino right here?
But sure enough they do nice sometimes they have great
bands and shows. Man Cato and Rochester are great towns
to visit. They're about an hour away if you're into solo.
If your solo or this is an adult only trip,
there is aragon a strip club in downtown Albert Lee.
It's an experience. Thank you. Bestie's from Taylor. I'm gonna
(09:51):
see if I can forward this. Stall me for me
for a minute. Here, okay, Joe.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Stall again.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Joe's gonna come here to go to some strip club. Yeah, sorry, Joe.
I can't remember if it was girlfriend or fiance or wife,
but she wasn't so I feel like she's probably coming
from this time that maybe they'll hit up the strip club,
but I would.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I think that's kind of fun. Actually, I mean, I
don't know. I've never been.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
There's a strip club in my hometown called the Op.
The other place, and let me tell you I've only
heard awful stories about them.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Really, I know one stripper and she's cool, so I
always just assumed that all of the strippers are cool.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I do love when I got sorry, Dave. I love
when I got to the age where my parents started
telling me stories that they never would have because I
did learn. I think at my dad's retirement party when
all of their buddies were talking because they used to
have like a bunch of couple friends, and so my
parents used to once upon a time be married, and
they were talking about how they all went to the
OPI one time, and I was like, what, my mother, what.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I have a variety of strip club stories in the
one was we stopped data place in Superior, Wisconsin. Me
and Extreme Jamie were on our way up there with
a bunch of guys for a ski weekend, and we said,
let's go to the strip club. It was like four
in the afternoon. There was one stripper working. I remember
she was wearing really like ugly glasses. She was a
(11:15):
little larger than most strippers, and she had a band
aid on her boob, and and so nobody was really
paying much attention to her stripping. And so she went
and got her sack lunch and sat at the bar
and made her sack lunch. Now that was just kind
of like a little it lost some of its magic
to see the stripper sitting there eating her sack lunch
at the bar. We went to another one across the street.
(11:39):
It was called the Lamplighter, and we called it the
limp Lifter, okay. And so it was a crowded Friday
night and Jamie and I are sitting there at the
stage and then right up on the on the stage
and the woman comes by and she's dancing, dancing, and
Jamie and I are waiting for somebody else, I guess,
and she slaps the floor at her feet and she
(12:00):
had money. Motherfucker. Oh fine, and she was right. It
was like we're watching her and she was not as like,
so we're like, oh, we felt like, chastise children.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
You're getting bullied into pain the stripper.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
So we got out a couple of fives and we
tipped her. And that's really kind of it. Julie did fall.
We went to Julian used to go like to go
to the strip clubs Chase's mom, and so we were
at an upscale strip club in Phoenix, one time and
she's like, I'm going to the bathroom and she didn't
come back, and she didn't come back, and she didn't
come back. Oh my god, what happened. Well, she went
(12:35):
into the restroom, slipped on a puddle and cracked her ankle.
My god, at the strip club. And so they were like,
you know, we'll pay your medical bills. We're so sorry,
We're so sorry. And she didn't sue them, but they
were afraid that she would sue them because she had
the attitude of somebody that would sue them.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
See, I would just assume that she was getting a
lap dance somewhere, but no, I'm in pain in the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yeah, And it's weird to go to a strip club
with co workers because you're kind of like you pretend
that you're not interested, but you are interested, that you're
really not that interested.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
And yet you went twice two times with extreme change.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Well, Jamie was a buddy, but we went with a
bunch of people who used to take radio station trips
down to Las Vegas, and I remember like twenty of
us went to a like an upper end strip club
and it was kind of like, Hai, this is weird.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
People think it's weird that I've seen multiple male strip
shows with my mom and people are like, why do
you go to that with your mom? Like because they're
hot guys, and we both find hot guys hot, Like,
nothing wrong with it, that's weird. I remember we went
to Vegas once though, and we went to go see
a male strip show. I think it was like the
Thunder from Non Under, and one of the strippers came
right up to my sister to like, you know, dance
up on her. And she put her hands up and
(13:49):
she goes, I have a boyfriend, and I wanted to
punch her in the face because I didn't get a
stripper up by me. My mom didn't get a stripper
up by her, and my sister did.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
She's like.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Please, oh no, so she it's like, you're it is
strip come live a little.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Like he's gonna see. Okay, you were gonna get this
guy's number, who's dancing on you? No freaking chill. Oh
she ruined them.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Ah, that's funny anyway. Strip club stories on the Minnesota Goodbye.
All right, A couple of more here. This one is
for Bailey. Are you ready Bailey? Reaching out? I'm hoping
you might know a local theater program for class or
classes for kids. My daughter's eleven, loves theater and musicals.
She's a big fan of watching, but a little shy
and not quite ready to jump into performing. I want
(14:35):
to start her op behind the scenes, like costume lighting,
you know, things like that. Is there anything that they
can do, Bailey.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Oh, okay, well there's So there's the Children's Theater Company
which is in Minneapolis, and they have a lot of
classes that they take. One of my friends, Jackie, who
Dave loves Jackie, she teaches Hi Jackie. She's a teaching
artist there, and I know a lot of people who
are teaching artists there. I don't know what kind of
classes they have at the children Theater, but I know
that they have them. And then Stage's Theater Company is
(15:05):
in Hopkins and that's also a children's theater as well.
Maybe they have classes as potentially, maybe at least like workshops.
Other than that, honestly, I would look into community education
in whatever city or county that you belong to, because
community education oftentimes has some cool stuff. I know your
daughter's eleven, but when she's in middle school, she should
(15:27):
get involved with the theater program. Unless she has one
at the elementary school.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
That's a good point. I mean, it's school, that's obvious.
I think I don't know much about it. Like cross
community players, they do like open auditions I think for
different shows, and they'll let pretty much anybody in and
she'll end up in the chorus and she'll be like
a girl in the background in the chorus, but she'll
be around all of the big scenes and the experienced people.
And it's just I mean that there was little girls
(15:52):
in our production of Oklahoma years ago. And it's funny
because I'll run into them once in a while now
and they're like, you know bold now They're all, yeah,
they're like twenty four now. No, so but yeah, that's
another way to get into it. Allison was she loved
theater when she was a kid, and she went to
a summer program at the Chanhassen Dinner Theater and she
just loved it.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
So yeah, look into uh yeah, stage's children's theater, any
community theater for sure.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Justin writes in and he says, is there any particular
element in any popular songs that you can't stand? I
was inspired to write this because when I listened to
smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson. I can't stand the snare
drum noise that they chose. It sounds so cheap. Is
there anything like that in a particular song that you
can't stand? Perhaps a lyric or melody that isn't quite
(16:38):
right to you? Now, that's a really interesting question. Yeah,
nothing comes to mind, although I'm sure that on the
way home I'll hear a song that's like, oh, Justin
that would have been perfect for this.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
I always think of I had some help with post
Malone and Morgan Wallen when it really literally starts out
with the weirdest little vibrato when he goes, You've got
a lot, and I hate it. Okay, Oh it sounds
like garbage.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It's funny how certain parts of songs, or certain songs
can rub us the wrong way. If nothing comes to
mind right away, what are the popular songs that everybody
loves that you can't stand? Mine? Go way back and
this shows my age, And I'll just tell you a
couple that I can't stand, Sweet Dreams, I'm made of this.
I hate that song. I hate it. I don't like it.
(17:29):
I don't know how it ever became a hit. Another one,
Tainted Love Tainted Love. I fucking hate that song. I
hated it from the beginning. When it comes on serious
xxim the eighty channel, click Boom by anybody else, That's
all I got.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I don't have anything. I can't think of anything else.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Period.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
There's some there's some songs on KATWB like black Horse
and the Cherry Tree. Remember that one from twenty years ago. Yeah,
I didn't like that one either, that one. Just I
think music is kind of like food. It's like, oh, man,
I really like that, Oh that's good, and other people
like boh disgusting fooy.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
I think the one thing I'll just say about music, though,
is like when people think that they're so much better
than you because of their music taste. Isn't the whole
point of music to be about it making you feel
a certain way? So why is my feeling towards a
certain music any less than your feeling towards a certain music?
Speaker 2 (18:25):
No, I agree. I feel like that when everyone says, yeah,
I really like all music except for country and rap,
and it's always except for country and rap. That's what
people say, I like all music except for country and rap.
You don't like all country and all rap, and you're
better than me, get out of here.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Well, I wouldn't think that I'm better than you. But
I appreciate all kinds because I know that it takes
some talent and skills or whatever. But I definitely. I mean,
I can appreciate country, but I don't listen to country.
I can appreciate rap, but it's not it's not my thing. Yeah,
some of it is. I mean, come on, Marky Mark
(19:01):
and the Funky Bunch, They're so funny. It's about that time,
brave true, the rhythm and the ribe. I'm gonna get
mine to get yours. I want to see sets coming
at your paws on and I am bringing it, bringing
it to the entire nation. Black white, red, brown field.
The vibration, I'm feeling it.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
I was thinking, and you were gonna bust up rappers delight, I.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Said a hip hop hippie hippie dib, a hip hip hoppy.
You don't stop or rocking to the bang bang boogie,
said up jump the booget to the rhythm of the
boogety beat. I was coming home late one dark afternoon.
A reporter stopped me for an interview. She said she's
heard stores and she's heard table fables that I am
vicious on the mic and the turntables. This young reporter,
I did a door so a buss's vicious Ryan like
(19:41):
I've never been before. She said, damn, fly guy, I'm
in love with you. The casting Ova legend must have
been true. And said, by the way, baby, what's your name?
She said, I go by the name of Lois Lane,
and you can be my boyfriend. You surely can. Just
let me put my boyfriend called Superman and said, he's
a fairy. I do suppose fly through the air in
panty hose. He may be very sexy or even q,
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and
(20:01):
red suit. I said, he need a man who's got
finesse and his whole name across his chest. He may
be able to fly all through the night, but can't
he rock about it to the early light? I said,
And I think that's all I remember right now?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Is that where it goes into the hip hop.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Hipch somewhere around there?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Yeah, rag Superman like that, I said, he's a fairy.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I do suppose. Now in nineteen seventy nine, when that
came out, calling somebody a fairy was funny. Oh, you're
a fairy because he wears pantyhose.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Because he wears pantyhose, SHO can't fit his whole name
on his chest.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
And that is it for the Minnesota Goodbye, ending on
a low note. For sure, we'll be back tomorrow with
another episode. We'd love to get your email on send
that into Ryan's show at katiewb dot com.
Here comes the Minnesota goodbye. Let's see what we got here, Dave.
I heard you talking on the show about oral exams
and chat GPT and taking tests on chromebooks and schools.
We were talking about how oral exams are making a
slight bit of a comeback because you sit down with
a student and you go, okay, so tell me the
importance of Benjamin Franklin's discovery of electricity or whatever, and
(00:23):
they can't cheat because they have to give you an
oral answer. So they said, I have a high school
freshman and have a few insights to share. First, when
kids have to write papers at our school, they're required
to write them in canvas. When they do this, the
teacher can actually go back and watch and fast forwarded
real time how it was composed, kind of like a
screen recording. So if it's copied and pasted in big
(00:44):
chunks or written suspiciously, it'd be more apparent to the teacher.
Of course, they also have software they used to detect
chat GPT text patterns. As far as tests, they're often
taken online, but proctering software is used. They could record
the student's face during the test.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Absolutely, I would hate that.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Wow. So they go on for a little bit, but
they said, I love you guys. I've been listening for
thirty plus years, have been through several cross country moves
on iHeart I currently live in Utah and love that
I can still get my daily dose of Minnesota winter weather,
which by the way, I don't miss. Thank you Beth
from Utah. Love that that you can listen. I mean,
(01:25):
that's so cool. There's so many people who have lived
out of state, moved out of state and still listened
to the Minnesota Goodbye. And this morning on the show,
we had a listener who is in prison in Phoenix, Maryland,
and I don't know if they've ever lived here, but
I just appreciate so much the number of people who
found our show that have never lived here. That always
blows me away that we're preferred over your local morning show.
(01:50):
But yeah, let's see. Juanita's here with a random rant.
Are you ready? Okay, let's pull up Juanita and her
random rant. I get to put a couple of buttons
in the right position, and I think we're ready to go.
Jannita take it away.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Yea Hey, So this week's Brint is about the medic
cases that these goddamn doctors keep trying to prescribe you.
So come March eighteenth of next year, I'll be probably
doing my rants line from my hospital man, because come
part seventeen, I'll be undergoing total nee replacement surgery on
my right knee. I've already had total nee replacement surgery
(02:28):
on my left knee before.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Now.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
I currently have arthritis in my fingers, and I right
now I take id be probing for it. But my
doctor said it as a medication that they could prescribe
me to take away the pain in my fingers, And
I asked her, I said, so, what's the side effects
on this medication? Well, the side effects of suicidal thoughts
and constant diarrhea. Fitch, constant diarrhea, suicidal thoughts. So instead
(02:54):
of walking around looking like I'm trying to grab a bar,
I could I could possibly be oh myself or consistently
shit on myself.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
I beg to differ.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
What the fuck is wrong with these goddamn doctors. Why
are the side effects of having these medications worse than
the problem that you're caught that you have? Are you
fucking kidding me?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
No?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Thank you God, These goddamn doctors pissed me the fuck off.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Well that's my reference week.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
I'll talk to you guys next week.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Bye, uh, thank you, Juanita. I think that when they
do those studies, and I don't know, but I think
I've read somewhere that that suicidal thoughts might show up,
but it also could be a little bit dum anecdotal.
So in other words, let's say, if I give Bailey
a magic bean, or I give five hundred people a
magic bean that's made out of plastic. It's harmless. I say,
(03:45):
keep it in your pocket for luck. There might be
four percent of people who have suicidal thoughts that is
not associated with the magic bean, because the magic bean
is a piece of benign plastic. But they have to
put that in the study because those thoughts are there
at a significant percentage that it might be a factor.
Now I don't know that's in this case, but I
(04:06):
know in medical studies they go, oh, yeah, like chronic
diarrhea and urge to bake an angel food cake. You know,
they just might show up, but they might not have
anything to do with the drum.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
That magic being gave me anal leakage, so I well
know I did, Yeah, I know and it really sucks,
but I'm being really brave about it. And I am
wearing a diaper.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
So I know what, Bailey, I want to say. Not
all heroes wear cakes. True, So thank you.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I do have to say.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Wannie to sent me a very nice message yesterday. But
on top of that, she did also say, ps, my
cousin Nuke Nuke wants to meet you. Trust me, stay
far away.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
I closed the email dialogue box here, so if you
want to install for me for a second, just for
a second, if you're going to come up with something again.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
With regular guy, I feel like I every time.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Yeah, Tony, how's paddle board guy?
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I got that one.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
There's just not much to say. Oh, okay, to be honest,
So you, however, are moving in a direction where maybe you.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Were moving in. We're moving in together, we're having a baby,
but we are no.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
But you, guys, do you feel like you're going to
have some kind of conversation of are you banging anyone else?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Probably?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Well I can almost guarantee he's not, and I know
I'm not. So yeah, probably this weekend because I'm going
to see him quite a bit this weekend. I literally
have like barely anything to do this weekend, which is bonkers.
It is crazy for you morning plans every day, but
that's it.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
I have too much in the next couple of days
and it's driving me a little bonkers. To use Bailey's
favorite expression, Yeah, I've got a meeting that, I've got
lunch with a friend, and then Carson's coming home, so
I got to pick him upt the airport tonight. And
then when Carson comes home, I love him so much,
but he gets bored and he doesn't realize that I've
been running all day and I don't want to go
(05:58):
to the movie. I don't want to go there. I
don't want to go here. I don't want I just
want to come home and relax. But He's like, Dad,
I found a movie. It starts at four point thirty
at Eden Prairie, And I'm like, I don't want to
tell him no, but I also don't want to go.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
My question for you is is he asking you to
go or does he just want you to pay for everything?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Oh? No, he's he doesn't care about that.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
No, I don't expect my parents to entertain me whatsoever.
Anytime I've gone home my parents have I've just I
almost am always Like back in the day, I would
just go hang out with my friends all the time,
and my parents would get pissed at me that I
was like never even in the house.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Well, I think that, you know, he does his share
of going out with his friends, and I love that
he's got a million friends. But I think that's his
way of doing something together because Carson and I have
a lifetime of doing things together. I mean I could
sit here and list all that we used to do
so much together and now I you know, see him
a few weeks out of the year, right, So I
think that's his idea of, like, let's do something together.
(06:55):
And I don't like to say no because you know,
that's you know, that's what we like to do. Yeah,
he'll probably want to go snowboarding at Highland this year,
and I think my snowboarding days, honestly are kind of
behind me. I don't want to go get now what
because you're rickety? Now I'm rickety. Yeah, And when you
fall when you're forty, it's so funny because people who
are in their forties think they're really old, and it's
(07:16):
like row. Now that I've turned forty, you know, I
can't walk anymore and I can't see. It's like shut
the front door at forty years old. It's all relative.
You know, you think you're old. But but if you
think you hurt when you fall on your snowboard at forty,
wait till you get a couple of more years on you,
(07:36):
and then you don't want to even get off the
lift when you're older because you might fall.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
The lift is still terrifying, no matter how good the
lift is terrifying to me, still terrifying, not so much
as when I used to ski, but as a snowboarder,
it is not fun to get off the list.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Fucking hate getting off the lift. Yes, it's the worst
terrifying thing because there's usually a giant hill. Yep, you
might slip and fall. If you do, the snowboarders behind
you're going to crash into you, or they're going to
stop the lift and make you look stupid. Or you're
going to crash into thirteen year old Kayla who didn't
get out of the way when she got off the lift.
(08:13):
You know what I'm talking about. There's somebody in front
of you who didn't get off the lift right and
they're standing there. You get off the lift ha ha
bunk and you're knocking over thirteen year old Kayla and
you feel terrible. Yeah, all right, here we go. We're
talking about Albert Lee and the Taylor. I hope that's
how you say your name. Wrote in with some ideas
(08:35):
for Albert Lee. And this was for our friend from Turlock, California.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Yes, he's coming to Albert Lee soon and he wanted ideas.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Hey, first of all, I can read these tow you,
but I'm going to send this over to you too.
The Bend in the road. If you like to drink,
you can get the best mules. There so many flavors
to choose from. Summertime. Fountain Lake and Albert Lee is
a really nice lake to swim or they get a
great path to walk around about three or four miles.
It's beautiful willows in New Richland. They have great food.
The fish tacos are my favorite. Downtown Austin is super nice.
(09:05):
You're planning on going to the Spam Museum. You're already downtown.
Swing into Piggy Blues for a great meal. Diamond Joe's
Casino in Northwood, Iowa, maybe a twenty minute drive from
Albert Lee. On thirty five South. That's the first giant,
big casino when you cross the state line going south.
It's on your right hand side. It's called Diamond Joe's
and it's in the middle of nowhere. I've driven by
(09:27):
it and go why would they have a casino right here?
But sure enough they do nice sometimes they have great
bands and shows. Man Cato and Rochester are great towns
to visit. They're about an hour away if you're into solo.
If your solo or this is an adult only trip,
there is aragon a strip club in downtown Albert Lee.
It's an experience. Thank you. Bestie's from Taylor. I'm gonna
(09:51):
see if I can forward this. Stall me for me
for a minute. Here, okay, Joe.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Stall again.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Joe's gonna come here to go to some strip club. Yeah, sorry, Joe.
I can't remember if it was girlfriend or fiance or wife,
but she wasn't so I feel like she's probably coming
from this time that maybe they'll hit up the strip club,
but I would.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
I think that's kind of fun. Actually, I mean, I
don't know. I've never been.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
There's a strip club in my hometown called the Op.
The other place, and let me tell you I've only
heard awful stories about them.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Really, I know one stripper and she's cool, so I
always just assumed that all of the strippers are cool.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I do love when I got sorry, Dave. I love
when I got to the age where my parents started
telling me stories that they never would have because I
did learn. I think at my dad's retirement party when
all of their buddies were talking because they used to
have like a bunch of couple friends, and so my
parents used to once upon a time be married, and
they were talking about how they all went to the
OPI one time, and I was like, what, my mother, what.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I have a variety of strip club stories in the
one was we stopped data place in Superior, Wisconsin. Me
and Extreme Jamie were on our way up there with
a bunch of guys for a ski weekend, and we said,
let's go to the strip club. It was like four
in the afternoon. There was one stripper working. I remember
she was wearing really like ugly glasses. She was a
(11:15):
little larger than most strippers, and she had a band
aid on her boob, and and so nobody was really
paying much attention to her stripping. And so she went
and got her sack lunch and sat at the bar
and made her sack lunch. Now that was just kind
of like a little it lost some of its magic
to see the stripper sitting there eating her sack lunch
at the bar. We went to another one across the street.
(11:39):
It was called the Lamplighter, and we called it the
limp Lifter, okay. And so it was a crowded Friday
night and Jamie and I are sitting there at the
stage and then right up on the on the stage
and the woman comes by and she's dancing, dancing, and
Jamie and I are waiting for somebody else, I guess,
and she slaps the floor at her feet and she
(12:00):
had money. Motherfucker. Oh fine, and she was right. It
was like we're watching her and she was not as like,
so we're like, oh, we felt like, chastise children.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
You're getting bullied into pain the stripper.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
So we got out a couple of fives and we
tipped her. And that's really kind of it. Julie did fall.
We went to Julian used to go like to go
to the strip clubs Chase's mom, and so we were
at an upscale strip club in Phoenix, one time and
she's like, I'm going to the bathroom and she didn't
come back, and she didn't come back, and she didn't
come back. Oh my god, what happened. Well, she went
(12:35):
into the restroom, slipped on a puddle and cracked her ankle.
My god, at the strip club. And so they were like,
you know, we'll pay your medical bills. We're so sorry,
We're so sorry. And she didn't sue them, but they
were afraid that she would sue them because she had
the attitude of somebody that would sue them.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
See, I would just assume that she was getting a
lap dance somewhere, but no, I'm in pain in the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yeah, And it's weird to go to a strip club
with co workers because you're kind of like you pretend
that you're not interested, but you are interested, that you're
really not that interested.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
And yet you went twice two times with extreme change.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Well, Jamie was a buddy, but we went with a
bunch of people who used to take radio station trips
down to Las Vegas, and I remember like twenty of
us went to a like an upper end strip club
and it was kind of like, Hai, this is weird.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
People think it's weird that I've seen multiple male strip
shows with my mom and people are like, why do
you go to that with your mom? Like because they're
hot guys, and we both find hot guys hot, Like,
nothing wrong with it, that's weird. I remember we went
to Vegas once though, and we went to go see
a male strip show. I think it was like the
Thunder from Non Under, and one of the strippers came
right up to my sister to like, you know, dance
up on her. And she put her hands up and
(13:49):
she goes, I have a boyfriend, and I wanted to
punch her in the face because I didn't get a
stripper up by me. My mom didn't get a stripper
up by her, and my sister did.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
She's like.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Please, oh no, so she it's like, you're it is
strip come live a little.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Like he's gonna see. Okay, you were gonna get this
guy's number, who's dancing on you? No freaking chill. Oh
she ruined them.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Ah, that's funny anyway. Strip club stories on the Minnesota Goodbye.
All right, A couple of more here. This one is
for Bailey. Are you ready Bailey? Reaching out? I'm hoping
you might know a local theater program for class or
classes for kids. My daughter's eleven, loves theater and musicals.
She's a big fan of watching, but a little shy
and not quite ready to jump into performing. I want
(14:35):
to start her op behind the scenes, like costume lighting,
you know, things like that. Is there anything that they
can do, Bailey.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Oh, okay, well there's So there's the Children's Theater Company
which is in Minneapolis, and they have a lot of
classes that they take. One of my friends, Jackie, who
Dave loves Jackie, she teaches Hi Jackie. She's a teaching
artist there, and I know a lot of people who
are teaching artists there. I don't know what kind of
classes they have at the children Theater, but I know
that they have them. And then Stage's Theater Company is
(15:05):
in Hopkins and that's also a children's theater as well.
Maybe they have classes as potentially, maybe at least like workshops.
Other than that, honestly, I would look into community education
in whatever city or county that you belong to, because
community education oftentimes has some cool stuff. I know your
daughter's eleven, but when she's in middle school, she should
(15:27):
get involved with the theater program. Unless she has one
at the elementary school.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
That's a good point. I mean, it's school, that's obvious.
I think I don't know much about it. Like cross
community players, they do like open auditions I think for
different shows, and they'll let pretty much anybody in and
she'll end up in the chorus and she'll be like
a girl in the background in the chorus, but she'll
be around all of the big scenes and the experienced people.
And it's just I mean that there was little girls
(15:52):
in our production of Oklahoma years ago. And it's funny
because I'll run into them once in a while now
and they're like, you know bold now They're all, yeah,
they're like twenty four now. No, so but yeah, that's
another way to get into it. Allison was she loved
theater when she was a kid, and she went to
a summer program at the Chanhassen Dinner Theater and she
just loved it.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
So yeah, look into uh yeah, stage's children's theater, any
community theater for sure.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Justin writes in and he says, is there any particular
element in any popular songs that you can't stand? I
was inspired to write this because when I listened to
smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson. I can't stand the snare
drum noise that they chose. It sounds so cheap. Is
there anything like that in a particular song that you
can't stand? Perhaps a lyric or melody that isn't quite
(16:38):
right to you? Now, that's a really interesting question. Yeah,
nothing comes to mind, although I'm sure that on the
way home I'll hear a song that's like, oh, Justin
that would have been perfect for this.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
I always think of I had some help with post
Malone and Morgan Wallen when it really literally starts out
with the weirdest little vibrato when he goes, You've got
a lot, and I hate it. Okay, Oh it sounds
like garbage.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
It's funny how certain parts of songs, or certain songs
can rub us the wrong way. If nothing comes to
mind right away, what are the popular songs that everybody
loves that you can't stand? Mine? Go way back and
this shows my age, And I'll just tell you a
couple that I can't stand, Sweet Dreams, I'm made of this.
I hate that song. I hate it. I don't like it.
(17:29):
I don't know how it ever became a hit. Another one,
Tainted Love Tainted Love. I fucking hate that song. I
hated it from the beginning. When it comes on serious
xxim the eighty channel, click Boom by anybody else, That's
all I got.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I don't have anything. I can't think of anything else.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Period.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
There's some there's some songs on KATWB like black Horse
and the Cherry Tree. Remember that one from twenty years ago. Yeah,
I didn't like that one either, that one. Just I
think music is kind of like food. It's like, oh, man,
I really like that, Oh that's good, and other people
like boh disgusting fooy.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
I think the one thing I'll just say about music, though,
is like when people think that they're so much better
than you because of their music taste. Isn't the whole
point of music to be about it making you feel
a certain way? So why is my feeling towards a
certain music any less than your feeling towards a certain music?
Speaker 2 (18:25):
No, I agree. I feel like that when everyone says, yeah,
I really like all music except for country and rap,
and it's always except for country and rap. That's what
people say, I like all music except for country and rap.
You don't like all country and all rap, and you're
better than me, get out of here.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Well, I wouldn't think that I'm better than you. But
I appreciate all kinds because I know that it takes
some talent and skills or whatever. But I definitely. I mean,
I can appreciate country, but I don't listen to country.
I can appreciate rap, but it's not it's not my thing. Yeah,
some of it is. I mean, come on, Marky Mark
(19:01):
and the Funky Bunch, They're so funny. It's about that time,
brave true, the rhythm and the ribe. I'm gonna get
mine to get yours. I want to see sets coming
at your paws on and I am bringing it, bringing
it to the entire nation. Black white, red, brown field.
The vibration, I'm feeling it.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
I was thinking, and you were gonna bust up rappers delight, I.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Said a hip hop hippie hippie dib, a hip hip hoppy.
You don't stop or rocking to the bang bang boogie,
said up jump the booget to the rhythm of the
boogety beat. I was coming home late one dark afternoon.
A reporter stopped me for an interview. She said she's
heard stores and she's heard table fables that I am
vicious on the mic and the turntables. This young reporter,
I did a door so a buss's vicious Ryan like
(19:41):
I've never been before. She said, damn, fly guy, I'm
in love with you. The casting Ova legend must have
been true. And said, by the way, baby, what's your name?
She said, I go by the name of Lois Lane,
and you can be my boyfriend. You surely can. Just
let me put my boyfriend called Superman and said, he's
a fairy. I do suppose fly through the air in
panty hose. He may be very sexy or even q,
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and
(20:01):
red suit. I said, he need a man who's got
finesse and his whole name across his chest. He may
be able to fly all through the night, but can't
he rock about it to the early light? I said,
And I think that's all I remember right now?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Is that where it goes into the hip hop.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Hipch somewhere around there?
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Yeah, rag Superman like that, I said, he's a fairy.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I do suppose. Now in nineteen seventy nine, when that
came out, calling somebody a fairy was funny. Oh, you're
a fairy because he wears pantyhose.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Because he wears pantyhose, SHO can't fit his whole name
on his chest.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
And that is it for the Minnesota Goodbye, ending on
a low note. For sure, we'll be back tomorrow with
another episode. We'd love to get your email on send
that into Ryan's show at katiewb dot com.

The Burden
The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
