Transcript

It's the Minnesota Goodbye with Jenny and Fallon in the morning, Benny in the morning, Zoo, she's got big tits. That is not how my That is the PG thirteen one that we can't get on the radio. My goodness, No, I didn't. I was expecting you to say what it says in it. I did send because Jenny and I both did. First of all, we both sent each other gross messages this weekend. What this is why I love my relationship with Jennifer. Jennifer, do you like me gonna

call you? Jennifer started at it doesn't matter a weekend with a photo of her in the radio station bathroom in the mirror, and had an rip stall one, which is you do the math. And then yesterday after my peloton ride, which we also do this, we will send photos of each other sweat. We're so gross, I know. I sent her a picture of my underboob sweat for my sports brawl and it was such a sad realization because you know how you have that one favorite bra I don't wear normal I don't

wear normal brawls. Since I had all of I like, don't wear wired bras. Yeah, and I should because the ladies are looking saggy. But but everyone has their favorite. I have a favorite sports bra. I always have like two, and I cannot it's like a normal brand. I cannot find a brawl like it. Yeah, but when I sent the picture, I was like, this is so gross. The sweat looked like black on the bra because I've worn it. I've seriously probably had that braw for eleven

years. Yeah, she's a little weathered. So I started to like think, should I do the thing where I put it like your sister did and put it in the bathtub with like vigor soap and stuff to get it out? And I was like, I just I don't know that I can let her go yet. Yeah, don't do it. I mean, realistically, who's seeing that bra besides maybe Jake, And like, yeah, I know you're probably not walking around in the house with just a sports bra and most

of the time anyways, but who cares. I've been wearing I wear like wire bras. I have been wearing these same wire bra, the old Trustee for a solid seven years. Like I have literally seven other wired bras and I hate them. There's one, there's a black one. I switch in when I need to because like a top like stretches too much and then you can see through if it's like a light bra in the my old Trustees of Gray. But no, I switched between those two bras and that's it,

and I refuse to even go and look at the other ones. And I have plenty of other ones. Yeah, all right, moving into less aggressive boob conversations. Okay, this, I don't know if they want us to use the name side as, won't. You were talking about trauma today and I wanted to pipe in. Haha. I took me until I was thirty to realize things during my younger years weren't normal normal, and things I thought

were a personality trait, we're really just a trauma response. I also learned that things that happen can be traumatic to one person, but not the other people in this situation. So something that was traumatic to your sister when you were little might not have been traumatic to you. I agree with the original writer that we should spread awareness so people can be a little more empathetic. Also, it is great when you can get the get to the point where

you can joke about it. Love it. You weren't here, Dave and I kind of were talking about like a traumatic thing that he went three years ago, and how now, being the great friend I am, I can make jokes about it, even though it used to haunt him, like you couldn't bring it up, and now you get to that point where you can joke about it. Not in every case we said, there are lots of things that look you never get to that place understandably. So, by the

way, Dave is not on this just because he has technical difficulties. So it's me and Jenny and I'm kind of going through I hate saying this because you don't care, but deleted emails that I had sent to Dave to read for today, so I apologize if it's a little bit scattered, and I haven't I haven't prey read them as movies say. First of all, I've been listening since I was in high school over fifteen years ago, and I listened to the Minnesota Minnesota Goodbye as well. I'm a p one, Dave,

ha ha, love all of you. I feel like you're my friends, and my husband is sick of hearing about it. Ha ha. Anyway, I'm writing about the woman who was on No Phone screen or Friday talking

about the Cariboo app. She called to complain because on the Cariboo app you can only choose like a little bit of cream or flavor, a lot of cream or none, and she wants to specifically put one pump of something, which, by the way, someone else messaged me and said, my friend's husband's a higher up at Cariboo, and I told her to tell him and she said things for the feedback. Who knows if it'll help. This person says, I was so excited to hear someone else have the same experience.

I have literally written a Cariboo multiple times that my coffee has made wrong about seventy five percent of the time. And then I also cannot order it the way I like on the app. I like extra carmel in my crafted press, but you can't order that on the app. It's the only drink you cannot adjust the amount of flavoring at all. Therefore I have to order in store, and even then I get charged for extra carmel and my drink is still not right. So honestly, I started going to Starbucks and probably go

there more than Cariboo. Now I wish Cariboo would make their apps similar to Starbucks or Duncan where it's by number of pumps. Sorry if this was a boring topic, but I was much so excited that someone else feels the same way. Thanks for all you do. Don't want to go I don't want to make this about like ragging on Cariboo, because we love Cariboos on local

we support them. But I can understand I don't use their app, so I don't know that frustration, but I can understand how frustrating that would be. And then if you actually go in because you have to for it to still be wrong, that would be very frush. I would like lose my mind. Probably. Yeah. I do get Cariboo like every Friday morning before the show. It's my little treat to myself for making it through the week.

And I always do a cold press with milk chocolate add it in, but I do a half shot, and so you can specify something like that.

But when it's already a pre made, crafted something, then I know what they're talking about is you can't like lower like the pumps of subject because like I also want to Starbucks this past weekend and I always get the vanilla sweet cream cold brew and I'm kind of sick of it because it's starting to get too sweet almost for me, so I loved I did one less pump of the vanilla syrup syrup I think this weekend because I was like, I

gotta ease up and I but I had gotten something different a couple weeks ago and it was very disappointing, so I was like, I gotta go back, but I don't want it to be too sweet. Starbucks app is amazing. Yeah, it's crazy because they have so many options. It's you could. I mean, it's honestly crazy how they have it covered, but they do. Next message, just had to ride in after hearing the email about the woman passing Dick Enrico, because I have also passed him on the freeway

more than once. First time was after I saw a bobblehead of him at Goodwill. Thanks Rina, that is a funny run in. Also, Emily, You're disgusting, she emailed us. She knows why she's gross. She did this because I said I would lose my mind. She took a screenshot of her phone and her email inbox has fifty nine thousand. Oh my gosh, that's got to be where she sends all of her email subscription things. Too, so I told her she was sick. This is our next email.

Hey, gang, quick topic for you to discuss. I'm currently fostering a dog for the first time. He's an adorable little pit bull mix. I also have a dog of my own, a German Shepherd, and two cats. We don't have any kids yet, but have been toying with the idea of starting soon. What I need help with is this against my best judgment, We've been considering adopting this dog. We We've had him for just over a week and he gets along super well with our dog. We've always

felt bad that our dog doesn't have a buddy to play with. The cats are not entrusted and have mostly been keeping to themselves upstairs. I do feel bad that they seem a bit stressed with more chaos in the house and are afraid to come downstairs, but I think they'd relax over time. Here's the deal, though I don't want two dogs. I joke that I don't even want my current dog. They're just a lot of work and demand a lot of your attention. Not to mention, another dog would be twice the treats

food that it's in training. We can afford it. Financially, but four pets just seems like a lot. Please talk me off the ledge, thanks for all you do every day. She wants to be talked off the ledge from adopting that foster Poppy. She already has a dog of her own, yep, two cats, and they want to have a baby. All right,

this is what I'm gonna say. Okay, I have a sister who is pregnant with her third child right now, and they've got a two and a half year old and a four year old, and they have two dogs, two cats. Those animals I love my sister, but are very neglected because of the kids. And so I think you don't mean they're not fed by the Yeah, they are, like they just they do not get out on walks very often. They like, you know, like they've got a

huge yard, so the dogs go out there anytime that they want. They come back and they're very they're well trained to like stay within the yard and stuff. But I just like feel sort of bad for the dogs because once the kids came along, it was just I think that it was just like too much, yeah, with like having two dogs, two cats, and now two kids with a third on the way. So I think that if you want to give enough attention to a future child, it would be best

to not get a second dog. Well, you're by default going to give more attention to your kid, which, by the way, your kid is going to create extra stress and chaos for all of your animals. I mean, I know it's just because of Elliot's age, but I swear Elliot overnight aged. When we had Olive, she always seemed like a younger, old gal. But man, she has so rapidly aged since we got Olive, and I don't know if there's a correlation there, But here's what I'll say.

If that little pup can't find anyone, then I know you're going to feel guilty and you'll probably adopt it and you'll figure it out. But I would say, if there's a loving home that wants that pup, then probably do yourself the favor. Yeah of nods, but yeah, I understand that stress. You're a good person. Fostering is like a great thing. My friend Donna just took in a foster because I'll be honest, it was a pit bull mix and that they have the hardest time getting those animals fostered or

adopted. They have the hardest time, and so she is such a giving, kind soul. She saw like they kept posting and she's like, I cannot just let that dog be in a cage. So she took her. And she was worried, what if the phrasing, you know, they phrase it cute, but it'll be like has a little bit of difficult time going to the potty sometimes, which could mean ruined your front. Anyway, she took the risk and she said it's been great. She's just the sweetest girl

and she's so happy she's fostering her. And I said, you're a really good person for doing that, because most people would just keep scrolling and that's like, you have such a kind heart and if you could do it, then that's wonderful. So the fact that you foster in general, I think you seem like a very wonderful, kind giving person. So anyway, don't know if that helped you at all. Yeah, but here we go, Hey, Gang and Jenny in the morning Zoo. Quick question, has anyone

seen Steve's commercial for Dean's on TV? I was just sitting here and there pops up Steve trying to unclog a toilet while holding a toilet brush as a microwave phone. So funny. Anyway, love you all. Keep up the great work. Absolutely we have. Yeah, we've seen it. Steve's ridiculous. Okay, hello all yesterday, Falon So that Jake does a great job of making her always feel wanted. It led me think about a thought I've

been having lately. I'm seven months pregnant with my first and struggling with the transition out of my body being mine historically being seen as sexual versus functional, as well as all the bodily functions that happen with pregnancy breastmolk, grung, belly birth, etc. Obviously, I'm grateful I can have this experience, but as I think about it more, I worry about how my husband will view me after seeing all of the transitions. We've had discussions and he's reassuring

that it's not an issue. He's amazed at what I can do. But I can't shake the thought fallon have having a child. Do you have any tips, Dave, you've gone through the experience, what's your male perspective. I'm sorry, Dave's not on this to help you out of and see that, so I could maybe ask him tomorrow, but I know what he's going to say. He's not going to care. Yeah, Susan, I know he'll tell this exact story. Susan, I think got horrible stretch marks.

And Dave always talks about how attractive Susan is, so it didn't affect Dave and Susan. I will say this, I understand where you're coming from mentally, because it is a hard transition to watch your body go through that. And I did not relate to people who said that they loved pregnancy. My mom loved being pregnant. I did not relate to that. I did not love it. And you do feel guilty saying that because there are so many people trying to have a baby and you feel like an asshole. But it's

your experience. You're allowed to have it, and you can also have empathy for someone else who desires to have that experience. So I will say this, it is very normal for you to feel that. Also, you're going to question every thing, overly, question everything. I give my top tip is stop thinking about how your body looks, especially after you have your baby.

You're not going to have time. If you see someone on the internet who looks great and put together and herner kid are in matching outfits and they're going to Target and getting Starbucks and the baby's three days old. That is not reality. Yeah, that is not and you should not put that kind of pressure on yourself. You should be sitting on the couch in your diaper. Yes, as a woman, you wear huge, huge ass pads because if you have a vaginal birth, I don't know what a c section is

like. You basically are like a baby too. You're in big pads, You're healing, you're going you have all of your own issues. Worry about that, worry about trying to find moments to sleep and take care of your baby. And then as you progress on, then at that stuff I'm sure will weigh on your mind, and you do what you can to be healthier, get to where you feel confident in yourself. If your husband is a good human, he is not going to care that is the last thing.

You just gave birth to his child. He didn't do it. I just, I just I will say this. I didn't question that about Jake when when I was going through it. But I also like, didn't marry a dick who only cared about my physical appearance. Appearance because I'll see comments like that. I'll see comments like, you know, the kind of jerky guys that don't represent real men on the internet, and they're like, yeah, of course he cheated on her and left her because you see what she looks

like after she had kids. And I'm always like, fuck youahwul person. So I would say, I think it's normal to question all these things, but don't let that those intrusive thoughts take over because they're unrealistic. I think it sounds like you have a really healthy relationship, that you're already talking about that with your husband, and that you're worried about that and he's reassuring. I think that it sounds like you have a really great partner, So I

think you'll be fine. Yeah, And I get like when I got a stretch marks on my stomach because I've my stomach is the one thing that I've always liked about my that really that affected me a lot. I remember the day I saw him. I was in a dressing room and I hadn't seen him, and I swear they came overnight and I cried all day and I cried to Jake and I was just like so upset, and they were kind of reddish. Now they're there, but they're pretty faint. They kind of

fade as you whatever. So anyway, I don't know if that answered anything, but I just think it's normal to have all these intrusive thoughts, but don't let those consume you. You're literally seven months pregnant, You're almost there. You've got this, and I hope you've had a decently easy pregnancy. But that'll be it for the Minnesota bye today. We'll have Dave back tomorrow with some of the messages we missed, and I hope you have a great day. Thanks for listening.
