Here we go with the Minnesota goodbye you ready, Jenny, I'm my day. Okay, I'm gonna start off without Please don't say my name. I'm about to have my fortieth birthday. Yay me. I've been divorced from my ex wife now for fourteen years, so since they were twenty six or so. In those fourteen years, I've never dated. I live in a rural area Minnesota, and I could never find anyone. I mean, imagine living
in like a small town. Let's say he doesn't live in Gaylord, but just imagine a small town like Gaylord where there's like a couple of thousand people. It'd be hard to meet somebody. I'm not into drinking, and I'm an introvert. I'm an only child, and my parents have been dead for the past ten and seventeen years. My kids are grown and onto their own lives. I've lost interest to be with anyone sexually. My question is I'm so lonely for physical touch that I've considered going to a strip club, not
for a lap dance, but just to have someone lean against me. Am I crazy for this? Thanks for reading this. If this earned a staff writer sticker, I'll gladly accept Yeah, more than did that is? You know. I feel bad for you. Yeah, in a lot of ways because you know your parents are gone. You're very young for your parents to
both be gone. Nothing wrong with being an only child. But you know, I've got five siblings, so I've always had somebody, you know what I mean, Even if I'm not close to some of them, I've always got them, and I'm closer to some than to others. It's interesting. I mean, your kids are grown and onto their own lives, hopefully you still stay in touch with them, and you say kids, but you're not asking any question except am I crazy for wanting to go to a strip club
to have someone touch me? No? No, yeah, I was saying not at all. I think the question you need to ask yourself is will that do it for you? Yeah? It sounds like they're just asking for just physical touch in general, though not like anything sexual. Right, So
there is like something. I think there's something that exists where you can hire someone to come cuddle with you for like an hour, which that also sounds very weird, I know, but like sometimes just that touch of someone, I don't know, maybe it would be weird if it was a stranger, so I don't know. I'm gonna be really transparent. Susan and I don't sleep in the same bed, therefore there is no physical touch. When we were in Hawaii, we slept in the same bed, but we don't.
I stay on my side. I don't like to be touched when I'm sleeping. I don't you know, I don't know whether she likes to be touched when she's sleeping. But I really I don't have any physical touch either. I really don't. And I get it. I've got Josie and I'm joking, but honestly, I get you want physical touch. It's interesting to me that you've lost interest to be with anyone sexually. That seems very weird to me. Yeah, I mean, I don't know how old this person is,
and I are about to be forty. Okay. I was gonna say, I'm like, maybe, I guess that's not too far out in age for me, But I was like, I feel like I'm too young to understand that still, because I feel like I still, yeah, have a lot of sexual attraction out there, and that's good, and you should, I mean, you really should have like a want desire for sex I think for most people your entire life, I think probably when you're eighty nine years old, you probably still want to, like, you know, do a
little something something. I don't know, but I would say if you are thinking that it might help you to go to a strip club and have somebody lean up against you, then do it. I don't know if there's like you know, they have the Champagne room in the back, Jenny, where you get a lap dance. Yeah, there used to be a song or
a skit called no Sex in the Champagne Room. Because when you go to a strip club and I haven't been to one in twenty years, it is implied that will you go back to the champagne room or whatever the VIP room is called, that there is sex going on back there. There's not. It's like a more expensive lap dance, because it's like a private lap dance, aren't. Yeah, okay, because I thought that there was like more things allowed in that room, but not like sexual, just like more touching.
This a good question. I mean that could depend on the place you go. If you go to like a legitimate place that is really interested in keeping their license and keeping their doors open, everything that goes on in the back is probably legal, but I'm gonna guess sketch your places. If you slip a dancer at twenty, you might get a little something extra. I don't know. I don't like lap dances. I've had a couple. They
make me really uncomfortable. I don't know where to look because you feel like you should be staring at her, but if you stare at her, you feel rude, like you're staring at any woman. I will never forget my freshman year of college. I was at a fraternity and this guy had a crush on like. We were drinking and he came up and gave me a lap dance in this room and it wasn't like a packed frat party. It was kind of like a little chiller and he gave me a lap dance in
front of everyone, and I didn't know what to do. I was like, this isn't really turning me on, and I don't know where this came from. I did, however, get a free lap dance in Vegas by a really hot stripper one time, and she just started giving me a lap dance and I was like, honey, I don't have any money, and she goes, oh, no, this is for free. Oh really, because I was with guys and they were like pain or she was trying to
get like their attention for them to give her money. And so for me, she just was like, I'm going to just dance on you for right now. It's like an advertisement, like a billboard, like you can get this too. Wow. He just used me and abused me. I'm gonna tell you a quick story. Here's a naughty story. It's Naughty Tuesday. So there was a woman married to somebody here at the radio station. And
she was normal. There was nothing unusual about her. She was, you know, like probably twenty five, and she she was, you know, for what it's worth, it doesn't matter that she was attractive, but you know, not model attractive, just an average, nice, friendly, funny, personable woman. All of us went to Las Vegas with the radio station. We went to a strip club and she got a lap dance. And let me tell you, this woman was in ecstasy. So she went from
like like Hi, how are you nice to meet you? Hey, what are you doing this weekend? To leaning back in this chair, panting, sweating eyes. Had a girl. She had a lap dance from a girl. Yeah, and it turned her on so hard. Hell yeah, that we I mean I especially. I don't remember what the other guys were saying, but I remember looking at her going, damn, she's way into this. Uh huh. It turned out she was a big freak. And I found out later from her husband because they got a divorce or whatever. And
you know it. I don't want to give too many clues, but a wonderful person, just a freak yah girl that did all kinds of freaky things, all right, Next one totally different. Hello Dave, Jenny Drake. This is from Chris listening in Miami. Wanted to get Dave's thoughts on the recent number of small aircraft crashes that have occurred, or at least the ones
I've been made aware of. We've had two in the past month down here in South Florida and another in Palm Beach County on a golf course this morning. I heard there was one overnight in Tennessee. I know there was also a waterplane that tipped on landing that was less catastrophic. I don't know how many. I don't know many details, but it sounds like all of these
had mechanical issues during flight. As a small airplane pilot, How is maintenance completed on these if you don't own the plane, and how do you, as a pilot check these planes are in good condition and maintenance is complete. Love the show, Thanks for all you do. I usually listened to the podcast, but soon hopefully I'll get back to listening live. Chris in Miami, Okay, I don't own a plane. I rent. The place that I rent from does a great job for many reasons to maintain their planes.
First of all, if you know that an airplane rental place has shoddy maintenance, you're not going to rent from there. If you have constant like burnout light bulbs, or this switch doesn't work or you got to jiggle this knob to get it to work, you're gonna go. Fuck this place. I'm not gonna fly here because you're not. So the place that I go to, it's Thunderbird Aviation. I'll give them a plug. They do a great
job. I've never had anything at Thunderbird ever concerned me. Once in a while, a light bulb will be burnt out, like the flashy red light on the back of the tail, and I'll say, hey, yeah, the red lights burn out, and they'll be like, oh, we'll send somebody out there right now and fix it. Or if this knob doesn't work, they'll be like, oh, well here, let me fix it for you. So the main thing to look out for is if like things aren't
working very well, like right off the bat. But like, I don't know, like how someone like me who knows absolutely nothing about airplanes, how would I know to trust a certain airport. You wouldn't really, I mean, you just trust. It's kind of like when you get on a Southwest jet to fly to Phoenix. You don't know anything about the maintenance or the pilot's ability. You just kind of have to put your trust in it. And but if you saw the pilot stagger on drunk with a beer in his
hand, you'd be like, oh, here's a problem. So there was one time recently in the last year or two that I saw the pilot go into the what's it called where they sit the pilot yes, yeah, And I like truthfully felt like he was kind of like stumbling a little bit, And I didn't want to like put it into the universe that I thought he was drunk, so I didn't bring it up until we safely landed at our destination and I said it to my boyfriend but he didn't see. But is
it a major airline? Yeah, okay, but I didn't know, Like it wasn't like stumbling stumbling. It just something felt a little bit off when I saw the pilot. And I know a lot of people who are anxious flyers will introduce themselves to the pilot to feel better when they get on the plane, Like, I know some people who do that, and I like kind of wanted to say something, but I was like, what am I supposed to say? I can't accuse this guy because I sort of saw him,
you know, like what would I do? Well? And that's the thing, because I think I've heard stories or seeing videos of a pilot that has been accused by a passenger being drunk, and they immediately they they're like, nope, we got to cant the flight's canceled. There's no way that I'm going to be accused to be drunk. I could lose my license, I could go to prison, whatever. So they'll be like, I'm sorry, but you know, I'm not drunk. And the fact that you accused
me, I now have to cancel the flight. Okay, So that's kind of your danger because if you if you are a pilot and somebody accuses you of being drunk, I'm going to guess the airline has to do a mandatory investigation or something probably, and you don't want to have any doubt that you were up flying drunk because you're never gonna fly again. Thanks Chris for the email. I appreciate that one. See what else we got here yesterday's podcast,
says Kaylee. A woman wrote in about her and her husband's joined finances, and it made me curious why don't more people do split financing. My husband and I have been together seven years, married almost three, and we've always split the finances. I understand someone will always make more than the other, but as in general, we have a joint account where we split all the bills fifty to fifty. Like Jenny has financial trauma of her parents fighting
over money, mine too fought, but differently. My dad always made double than my mom and would hold it over her head anytime she wanted to do anything, Christmas presents, lunch with friends, you name it. Now, my dad has always been a big saver, just like your dad, Dave, but I've always resented him for that. Now I have the mentality that I'll never have anyone hold finances over my head, even though I'm an incredibly
loving and stable relationship. This is how I cope. And then she goes on to say, uh right, Kaylee, Jenny, any thoughts on that, Does it spur any thoughts? I mean it does. It brings up some of the trauma too with me. Was my mom quit her job when
she was like forty. She had been there for like twenty years, and then she started a landscaping business, but that didn't take off right away, and so she would have to ask my dad for money and that was like like literally just for groceries to feed us, and that was like a fight even for them. So if that gives you any idea of how much trauma I have based around money, so I get where she's at. I never, like, I mean, I've never had an issue where I don't have
enough money to carry myself through. But there have been times where people have offered to like give me money because they know I was having a hard time because my car got hit or whatever it was, and I was like, absolutely not. I will never have anyone like holding money over my head. I will always find a way to make it myself. Yeah, and that's good. You know what. I've never been in the situation where I haven't made my own money, but I would definitely feel bad if somebody held it
over my head. I think the only thing is not to get too deep into the weeds. But if I weren't trying, you know what I mean, if I sat around all day and played video games in my underpants and then I'm like, yeah, I need five hundred dollars, me and my friends are going to Las Vegas, and Susan said, fuck you, I'm not. No, then I think that you but as long as you're both contributing, Okay, yeah, last one, because we're running a little bit
out of time. But it also has to do with finances. My wife and I are in our early thirties, married a few years, been together for eight years. When we got married, my wife wanted us to combine our finances, because that's what married couples do. I proposed that we keep our own bank accounts and open a joint account. Then we have our employees
divide the paychecks fifty to fifty to our individual and joint accounts. Okay, that allows me to spend my own money on car parts, crypto, and beer without having to ask permission, and as long as we have enough on our joint to pay our bills with some left to save. This gives her freedom to spend money without asking me. If there's a big purchase or emergency,
then will allocate more from our individual accounts to our joint. This only works if you trust your partner not to overspend and accumulate debt without your knowledge. Also, couples will have to determine how much percentage goes to individual and joint. I'm sure when we have kids it'll increase. Jenny, we're the same age, living a similar lifestyle. Do you see this as an option of Andrew and you ever get married? And he writes, he signs off
right, thanks for the great show. In the podcast, anonymous staff writer, thank you. So their paychecks still split, like everything's still split, but they have their own accounts. Is that what the gist of it is? They have an event to individual accounts and a joint account, but they're Yeah, they have their I think paycheck split between their joint and their personal Okay, got it? I mean yeah, I think that that would make
a lot of sense. I don't know. I'm sure Andrew and I will figure it out someday if we like get married and do a lot of stuff. But I think, yeah, we were we work out just fine. Like I mean, I own the house that we live in right now, and he just pays me half of the mortgage still every month, So like we still work perfectly fine, splitting things, splitting grocery, splitting utilities and stuff without having to have a combined account. So maybe someday, but right
now, I think it's fine the way we do it. I think that's the thing. If it works out, it works out. I know a married couple that we talked about, and I think yesterday on the show. He's the pilot. She trains pilots, and they keep their finances totally separate, so and it works out. Hey, any opinions on anything? Send an email to Ryan's show at kdwb at dot com for the Minnesota Goodbye.
If you want to talk about finances, or you want to talk about anything, you want to bring up something, let us know because you are basically the content creator on the Minnesota Goodbye, and we'd love to see what you want to talk about.
