Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's time for another Dave Ryan show for Christmas Wish.
We have a very different Christmas Wish today and we're
so happy to do this. One. One of our big
sponsors partners on Christmas Wish is Youth Link because we've
been working with youth Link for like, I don't know,
ten years or so. Co Quay is on the phone.

(00:21):
Good morning, Co, Good morning, good morning.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
How are you guys doing that?

Speaker 1 (00:24):
You are the headhun show? Is that right over at Yeah?

Speaker 2 (00:29):
I don't know about all that, but I am part
of leadership team.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
I appreciate that.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
Co.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
We've been working with you. We've been working with you
guys for a long time, and we want to do
a wish for youth Link. So will you take a minute,
Co and tell us what youth Link does. I think
a lot of people know, but a lot of people
might need a little familiarization for sure. For sure.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
So we're a nonprofit who serves young people experiencing homelessness
and crisis. So we are our demographic that we serve
our youth that are sixteen or twenty four, and so
we have a drop incenter and we also have housing services.
So young people come into our space to acquire basic needs,

(01:11):
have a safe place to be, create community, food, work
with case managers, and also build community. And so our
space is multifaceted, and we do we do a lot.
We do a lot in our space. So a lot
of it is around providing those services, those case management
services for those young people that we serve.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
And you know what I've got. I've got a twenty
four year old son, and you just can't imagine a
twenty four year old or a sixteen year old or
a twenty year old, you know, homeless. But a lot
of them leave home because it is no longer a
tenable situation for them to stay at home right Coe for.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Sure, for sure, And young people that walk through our doors,
everybody that walk through our doors has a different reason
of why they're walking through the doors. It's housing needs,
or it's just to you know, get them, get them
on the right path to resilience and independence and being
able to provide that with our case managers and our
staff within our space.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
How do your about your people, the people to come
to you, how do they find out about Youthlink Because
I think a lot of people find themselves suddenly. I
don't know, but I'm going to guess they find themselves
suddenly homeless where they just cannot stay at home anymore
for whatever reason. How do kids young people find out about?

Speaker 2 (02:22):
You think for sure? For sure mainly community based right
and so young people who are navigating these these these circumstances,
they have networks and communities that also provide the resource.
We do a lot of outreach, So we're at schools,
we're at the libraries, we're at encampments, we're out on

(02:43):
the streets looking for young people, actually meeting them where
they are physically and being able to provide those resources
and bring them back to Youth Flam to be able
to access more resources. Our overreach team does a lot
in community providing resources on the spot, but the majority
of the resources are in houses so we can get
them in house and get them connected to case management

(03:06):
that the opportunity to grow is a lot higher.

Speaker 1 (03:10):
I think that's so wonderful because you know, you think
about I'm not sure what you know, your situation code
when you were growing up. My kid's situation they never
they were never threatened with anything other than you know,
just a regular ordinary kind of a Christmas. Most people listening,
So you really can't imagine yourself at sixteen years old
kind of trying to find your own way and you

(03:32):
really it's got to be very difficult to do. So
thankful for youth Link and all the work that you
people do over at youth Link as you know, as
helping people out that are homeless, that are young. So
we want to we want to give you some things
to help make it easier for you and your team
and the and the youth who go to youth Link.

(03:55):
So one of the things we first heard about was
the community room could use a gaming area just to
kind of get together and whether it's like you know,
video games or TV or whatever, they're like a gaming
areas for people to come to and kind of congregate
and form community.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
Yeah, for sure, for sure, definitely it's not all about
the resources. Like a lot of young people come into
our space, like I said, because of that community, because
of the safe space, because of the place where you know,
they feel comfortable, they feel heard, they feel seen. So
if navigating homeless stense and housing is a big piece
for them, a lot of their a lot of their

(04:31):
hours throughout the day are spent you know, in our
dropping center.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
So here's some of the things we have for for
your community area, the gaming area. We got a Nintendo
Switch with four controllers in some games. Now here's the
thing about a Nintendo Switch. It's a it's a handheld
gaming device, but you can't just play. You can play
it handheld, but when you got fifteen kids all watching
you play Animal Crossing or you know, Mario Kart, you

(04:58):
got to put it on a big old TV. So
we got a brand new fifty inch TV to go
along with the Nintendo Switch. Okay, amazing. Uh. And then
we got a coffee table to put in the room too.
But then we heard some you need some furniture for
the waiting room. The chairs are kind of the chairs
have seen better days, Is that right?

Speaker 2 (05:17):
Definitely, they get a lot of they get a lot
of usage.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
So yes, I'm sure. So we got a three thousand
dollars Slumberland Furniture gift card to help you get some
new furniture so people have a comfortable place to wait
when they arrive at Youth Link for the very first time.
So three thousand dollars over at Slumberland, we hope will
help you guys out. There's a lot of people who

(05:43):
and and we really hope you can use this. Basically,
we got a Melbourne Clothing company in St. Melbourne Clothing
in Saint Paul send us a thousand dollars gift card.
Now they specialize in men's clothing and suits and pants
and jackets, and we're helping that maybe some of the
young people that you start serving, they're maybe getting ready
for interviews or they need to dress up to go

(06:03):
to this or whatever. So Milbourne Clothing is providing a
one thousand dollars gift card and you can spend it
on forever you want, whatever you want over there. Thanks
to Melbourne Clothing, they did this unsolicited men's quality brand
name in private label clothing at everyday value prices. Check
out Melbourne m I, L, B, E r N dot

(06:26):
com And just a big shout out to those guys
because they texted a couple of weeks ago and they said, hey,
can you use this? They said absolutely, and so unsolicited
they send over a gift card.

Speaker 4 (06:36):
Something you don't usually think about, so it's nice they
thought about it for.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
You, right, one hundred and one dollars holiday gas card.
You can use that for whatever you want, for staff
or for people who come to youth Link three hundred
dollars High V gift card to keep the fridges stocked
because I'm going to guess people come in and want
pizza rolls and you know, diet doctor Pepper and things
like that, so high Vs provide that and then everybody

(07:02):
loves pizza. Everybody loves pizza. Broadway Pizza Company is going
to give you an entire office pizza party. Two hundred
dollars in Broadway pizza gift cards for you and everybody
over there at youth Link Co.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Hey, that's amazing time for a pizza party, for sure.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
For sure, it is for sure. So CO, thanks for
all you do. We appreciate you and we just hope
you have the best possible Christmas. And thanks for continuing
to provide services for homeless youth over at youth Link Co.
Thank you so much.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
You have no TIBN. Appreciate you all. This means a
lot more than you guys can CO.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
I'm so glad we partnered with you. Guys. We really
appreciate the partnership and we'll see you again next year.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
CO.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
All right for holiday, Yes, happy holidays, And that is
one of those wishes where it's just different, and we're
just happy to help people that again, you'll never meet them,
you'll never see them. They will be thank without even
knowing about you. But we appreciate all that we are
able to do for Youth Link and for being a
great partner for the past. My god, it's been ten

and on iHeart Radio all over the world they see
time for Dave's dirt On KD doubub let's get started.
What do you got, Jenny.

Speaker 5 (13:19):
So there's some drama going on in the Beckham family. Basically,
it came out that David Beckham and Victoria Beckham stopped
following their their older son Brooklyn. But then the other son, Cruise,
came to the rescue and said, uh huh, Mom and
dad didn't stop following their son. Literally, Brooklyn blocked all
of us, like they all spoke up one morning and
Brooklyn went in blocked them. There's a lot of drama

(13:40):
with Brooklyn and his wife and Victoria and David, just
some stuff that happened at the wedding and stuff, and
it sounds very petty. And I'm sure I don't know
whose side to take because we really don't have a
ton of information, but clearly that family doesn't get along.

Speaker 6 (13:52):
How like, uh, we have family beef. He had followed me.
You know what I'm saying it like, it's weird what's
going on here? Yeah? Very weird in general.

Speaker 4 (14:00):
Timothy Chalome is now featured on sd Kids track. There
was a lot of talk going on about him being
this guy that was kind of famous on TikTok for
being a rapper who only ever shows his eyes, and
his eyes matched Timothy Shalomy's eyes, so rumor went around
that he was the same guy.

Speaker 6 (14:17):
They are not, so now they have been featured together.
And here's the track for Misty Kids shall ceiling trying
to stack a hundred million girls got a ballion with a.

Speaker 9 (14:25):
Little wonderful finline hinted a ceiling hinted Swincerland scene I'm
living a dream getting the cream.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
I'm living on them.

Speaker 6 (14:31):
I'm doing them. Over the weekend, there was a boxing match.

Speaker 9 (14:34):
It was Anthony Joshua versus Jake Paul and here is
I guess they call it the final call of Anthony
Joshua knocking Jake Paul.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
F out man.

Speaker 6 (14:41):
I've already won in every single way.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
And here you go.

Speaker 6 (14:44):
Shot knows that much he's gonna puts all right now.
Jenny is tall, Davis twenty one, hitch biceps. But if
they did a boxing match, Bailey, who do you think
would win of David?

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Jenny?

Speaker 6 (15:03):
Yes, Jenny really?

Speaker 4 (15:05):
Yeah, Jenny could Like I feel like Jenny's legs are
kind of like anaconda's where if they squeeze you too
hard you will explode.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Well, we're talking about boxing, not MMA.

Speaker 6 (15:14):
Well, she would find a way. Okay, she'd find a way.
Bailey versus me, who do you think is winning?

Speaker 1 (15:21):
You are wiry and she is lazy? Yeah, so I
would say you would win.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
Fink, you would win?

Speaker 6 (15:26):
Why I could tell you that?

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Right?

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Does that mean wirey? You're quick? You're nimble?

Speaker 6 (15:30):
Oh to climb something tall?

Speaker 1 (15:33):
And then so it turns out that Matt Damon claims
that he was offered a role in Avatar for two
hundred and fifty million dollars. That seems excessive to me,
even for a Matt Damon role. James Cameron says, uh,
not true. We talked about if the offer was never
even made. So I still love James Cameron, mostly because

(15:57):
he did Titanic, but because he just seems like so
amazingly creative. And he did Avatar, which I've never seen before,
but I know it's like one of the biggest hits ever.
So Matt Damon lied about being offered a role in
Avatar safe face.

Speaker 6 (16:13):
I guess.

Speaker 5 (16:14):
Tom Brady shared something over the weekend that was kind
of cryptic because his ex wife Giselle got married or
at least showed her wedding ring or something to the
new guy that she's been with. And Tom posted a
photo of him in like some sweatsh that said Forever
Young on it, and then he attached the logic song
that has the mental health awareness. I think it's a
suicide prevention specifically line to it, and that's what the

(16:35):
song is called.

Speaker 3 (16:36):
So it was a weird song choice. After Jazelle for
the first time posted.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
Something like that, and then he went ahead and he
posted a song like that.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
But I don't know.

Speaker 5 (16:47):
I mean, it doesn't seem like he I think there
were rumors that he dated Kim Kardashian since him and
Gazelle broke up. But outside of that, it doesn't seem
like he's been out there. He's decided to sit back
and reflect my stead. Yeah, I like to sit. I
can get deals from Holiday station stores personally, Yeah, seven
dollars meal deal. It's a personal pizza and a drink
for seven bucks. So go ahead and get that today.

(17:08):
If you're hungry and you need something quick. You know
what self care? Self care.

Speaker 4 (17:12):
Bon Yang is getting emotional because Yester or Not yesterday
Saturday Night Live episode This past Saturday was his last episode.

Speaker 7 (17:19):
I just feel so lucky that I ever got to
work here, and I just wanted to enjoy for a
little bit longer.

Speaker 6 (17:27):
Especially the people.

Speaker 7 (17:29):
I've loved, every single person works here because they've done
so much to me, especially my boss.

Speaker 5 (17:36):
Oh she is.

Speaker 8 (17:41):
Before I go, do you have any feedbacks for me?

Speaker 6 (17:44):
Well, everyone thought you were a little bit too gay.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Do you know what? You're perfect from me?

Speaker 6 (17:56):
And that's all Ryegrata and share, by the way, cute.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
Interesting. Kate Winslet is looking back at a difficult chapter
of her life. She said, I was a little bit stocky,
and when I did start taking it much more seriously
and I got a child agent. I remember vividly, a
drama teacher. She said, well, darling, you'll have a career
if you're ready to settle for fat little girl parts.

(18:22):
She says, look at me. Now. That wasn't very nice,
was it. It's appalling the things people say to kids.
She made her acting debut at the age of fifteen.
Is the fat girl. That's a joke. No laughs in
the studio, but you know whatever, I take a chance
here and there. She said that she barely ate from
fifteen to nineteen years old, which is kind of scary.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (18:45):
I feel like that time too.

Speaker 4 (18:47):
I mean, Jenny and I grew up during that time,
and that was rough because they were out here like saying,
Jessica Simpson and Renee Zellweger.

Speaker 6 (18:54):
Were fat and they were not at all whatsoever. So
that was yeah, weird to be alive, all right.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
That is a dirt brought to you by six one
two Injured Heimer and Lammer's Injury Law. We'll be back
for another magical Dave Ryan Show tomorrow with another Christmas Wish,
