Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to another episode out. I tell you what quite
the light show last night, you guys.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Yeah, yeah, I didn't really look at it very much,
but I looked at everybody's pictures.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Well, tonight's supposed to be even more magnificent with the
northern lights.
Speaker 4 (00:13):
That's awesome.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
They were, I mean all the pictures that I've seen
totally beautiful.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Yeah it was.
Speaker 5 (00:19):
We were outside at my in laws because they have
like a screening porch finally built by you, yep. So
we were out there and I just look up and
I go, why is the sky look like a bluish green?
And so I just pulled up my phone and go, oh,
northern lights there tonight. I forgot.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
What did they do years ago? I don't know, I
mean years ago, what did they do? I've seen the
Northern lights. I've seen them shifting. I remember being at
a cabin in northern Wisconsin and looking up kind of
to the northwest and seeing just it looked like this
island on the lake was on fire. I mean it
was really cool, but it was visible to my eyes.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Yes I was.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
I had a few, you know, but I never needed
a phone. I didn't need anything. And now it appears
like even in times of natural beauty to make them better,
we still need modern techno. We still need our phones.
We can't never put our phones down. I looked last night.
I looked out the window, and I saw a little
hint of green blue, like a little turquoise wisp. Wouldn't
(01:11):
have really noticed it if I hadn't seen what Doves
was sending us last night. From what you saw in
your backyard or you're in lost backyard. And then I
bring my phone up to it, It's like.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Oh, it's going on there, isn't that crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Our phones just process it better than our eyes do.
So if you can tell if you can see it
more clearly with your eyes, and if it's really obvious,
then it's very very very clear. I mean that's like
next level Northern lights, I think.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
But I felt a little left out. Everybody else had
the better shot. My shot was kind of weak compared
to everybody. I mean, I looked online. I'm like, all right,
what do you guys doing with the phone. But you
have to have it in like dark mode, yeah or something.
If you have your phone night mode something, whatever kind
of mode you have to end you know, me, I
just have it in whatever mode it happened to me,
And of course I had the flash on.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
Looking through the window that I had to turn that out,
you know.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
I'm like, don't go away, I'm gonna take a picture
of it.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
But they're supposed to be better tonight. That's crazy because
I thought they looked so good last night.
Speaker 5 (02:07):
Yeah, higher visibility today.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Wow. But you barely looked at them last night. Hunh
you just looked. Ah.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
I was at home. I was tired.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I didn't getting it.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
By the time I saw the pictures and stuff, which
was pretty early, I was kind of like, that's cool.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
And then I stayed inside one you see them all.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
I'm just I'm kind of at a phase right now
where I'm like, I just want to hibernate at night.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Are we getting a little immune to everything now?
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Yes? Probably.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
I think it's sad.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
In my defense, I'm not talking about no baby here
you are, I am.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
It's just like, man, there's so much natural beauty. Yeah,
and we're we sit and we hold our phones in
front of her. And I'm not trying to judge everybody,
but we do we all can't we all do it?
Speaker 5 (02:52):
You know?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
It's like, well, it's one thing to take a picture
of something beautiful, but then you got to put yourself
in it. Like the Grand Canyon is beautiful, you go
look at it, absorb it, take time without your phone
and just suck it in, take a moment and maybe
a little meditation or something to look at it. But no,
first thing we do pull out the phones. Gotta tell everybody,
and then you gotta get you in it. You almost
die hanging over the cliff doing it. Last night, people
are on their porches almost dying, like, oh nor the lines.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Are behind me again.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
They think it's going away in two seconds. And granted
you don't know when it's going away, but it is
going to go away fairly soon. But then they put
their ugly mugs in it.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
No offense.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
We're all beautiful people, but just take it in for
a second, look at it, and it's natural. We don't
do the moon. The moon is a beautiful thing. Get
out and enjoy the moon every now and then. Gosh,
if they took that thing away, you know what I mean,
everybody missed the moon. Way where's the moon? It's like, well,
you never looked at it anyway. There's a full moon outside. Yeah, yeah,
I got other things. I'm playing video games. No, go
look at the moon.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
It's true, though, we'd get super desensitized to a lot
of things. I think that when you can see pictures
of beautiful mountains on your phone at any given moment,
it really takes away from some of the amazingness of it.
When you go and see those mountains in person, you're
kind of like, that's cool, but in your had, you've
kind of already seen them. It's kind of the same thing,
like we could look anything up on our phone or
(04:05):
if there's a really for example, celebrities. Not that you
should get like that excited about meeting a celebrity, but
I feel like you see pictures of them online or whatever,
and then you see them in person, it's like, oh, yeah,
there's that person, and it's just it.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Used to be such a big deal.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Like think about the time, like with the Beatles, and
you'd only see pictures of the Beatles. No I know,
but I just obviously the craze around it, it's like
the crazy yeah, that crazy energy.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Yeah, I just feel.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Even so Taylor Swift, yes she's kind of transcended, but yeah,
it's all on our phone.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Now.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I mean, Taylor Swift is actually kind of a good
example because you have her concert, which was such a
big deal, but you could you could kind of watch
before the concert movie was even out. You could sort
of watch the whole thing on TikTok, And so even
if even like I went to the concert and I
loved it, it was super cool experience, but I had already
seen everything on TikTok, and so it kind of takes
(05:02):
away from some of that authentic human experience because you
kind of can live it through your phone, which is
sort of sad.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
And by the way, I do the same thing, what
I convict, what I see on social and everybody doing
I do the same thing. I'm not saying that I'm
any different any different. I'm trying to say that I
should get out and just hey, what a beautiful mood.
I'm just gonna look at it. Hey, thank god we
got that moon, you know what I mean. Otherwise the
tides would go something fierce, we get all sorts of wackiness.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
I think right Earth would fall down or something.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
It's just sad that the northern lights, the northern lights
are actually enhanced by our phones. It'd be wonderful. It's
like the Grand Canyon. You see it now. I've never
stood next to the Grand Canyon. I've flown over it,
but if I were at the Grand Canyon, I'd like want.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
To absorb it. Wow, this is huge. Take it all in.
This is better than anything I can put on my phone.
It really is. You know.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
I can look around, feel at the smell of the air,
all the things. And it's sad that the Northern lights, No,
we need our phones to make them even better, you
know what.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
With the Northern lights specifically, I think it's kind of
cool the way that, for whatever reason, the.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Cameras process is better than our eyes do.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
It's kind of neat because you can see it and
you're like, wow, that looks kind of cool, and then
you take the picture and you're.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Like, wow, it's really cool. Yeah. Yeah, I went outside.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I'm not getting that and I get what everybody's getting
till I took a picture.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Yeah exactly, yeah, AI or whatever.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Yeah, it was super cool and a lot of different colors,
but you just can't really see them with the naked eye.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Our eyes just aren't built to process it.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
That's how like when I first moved here, and they're like, oh,
the northern lights are out.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
I'm like, oh cool. I look up. I go, I
don't see anything.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Yeah, what are you looking at it?
Speaker 5 (06:31):
And then they're like pull out your phone.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
I go.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
But I've seen them, Like I said, that time into Scots,
I remember looking at them and not needing anything. I
never even thought to bring out my phone because they
were so brilliant. Sometimes they are, they're just far more brilliant.
Last night, you kind of saw the little hue. Well
that little hue was actually a blazon. When once you
gets your phone out.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
I don't think it helps that we have a lot
of light pollution.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
No, you see, that's what's taking you out in Maple Lake.
I'm like, you gotta have some doozies.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Well, we were in town because I was just at
home when I saw messages from it, and I didn't
feel like going out for a drive. But the last
time that there was really good northern lights in the area,
Hawthorne and I went out. We drove out to a
little county road and it was cool too because you
could see other people who were parked on the side
of the road and we're doing the same thing. But
it was much clearer when you go out somewhere and
(07:17):
look at them that way for sure. And that's even
in Maple Lake, which is not a super right, it's
not a metropolis by any means.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
As we talked about it, Look what's popping in. I mean,
everyone's shoring their photos right now.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I really did enjoy looking at people's pictures.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
I did too. Yeah, oh they're just the people. Thank
you guys. You guys, listen and just look at one,
the one from Natasha. Where were you and Natasha?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
I'll have to post some of the My mom got
some at the horse farm. Whoa, Yeah, she got some
really cool ones with horses, like outlines the horses in
the background or in the picture.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
It was cool.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
So it's just a lot of fun. It's neat. I
don't know, technology is weird, it is, but it's a
lot of fun.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Oh yeah, Natasha's cool.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah, So check out pictures in the Chris Current company
Facebook page of the Northern Lights.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
I just totally checked out. You guys were talking. I'm
looking at the pictures. Everyone said you get us were
talking about it.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I'm like, wow, everything I just said is complete BSS.
