We got kind of a crazy busy day today. We have to record a War of the Roses, which we do on Tuesdays. And you never know what's going to happen with War of the Roses, whether it's going to work out, or whether it'll be really boring, or whether one person won't answer the phone. So then, if we're lucky, it takes a half an
hour. If we're not lucky, it'll take a whole lot longer. Then I got a morning show that I got a coach, and I love doing this, and that's going to take probably forty five thirty to forty five minutes. I always tell the people that I coach, I say, we keep it short because I don't ever want you to look at me calling and going, ah, it's fucking Dave, and here he goes with another long winded
I get it. Nobody likes meetings, nobody wants the first thing you think when you sit down to meeting is how long am I going to be here? And so when I work with these morning shows, I always kind of make a promise to them. It's like it's a half an hour. Maybe once in a while a little bit more, yeah, but never more than that then star party, and it's more of a process for you because as
you've got makeup and hair and wardrobe to get ready for. Yeah, so when you start coaching that show, I'll probably be editing roses because then after we recorded, I edit it. Then yeah, I have. I told Jenny it's gonna be one of those weird days where I have nothing for like an hour and a half and I'll just sit there and stress out. I'm doing my own hair. I never do my own hair unless I curl it. I'm doing like an up thing. It's going to be disastrous. I
just know it. Then I get my makeup done it too. Jake has to get all of for a dental appointment at ten thirty. He has a haircut at one forty five. Then I have to go home after my makeup appointment, pick up Jake, get all of all OF's dance stuff, drive to her daycare, do the mommy and me like event she has. Then I have to do all Alive's dance stuff to my mom because she has her
dance photos tonight. So my mom has to take her to dance photos and someone there will have to do her hair because my mom quote unquote doesn't do hair, and then Jake and I will be driving to Star party. That's when I'm gonna change. I'm not wearing my outfit in the car for over an hour. Change at the venue. So I'm gonna show up with my makeup and hair done at all of mommy and me daycare thing, which is gonna look so ridiculous. And then I'm gonna yeah, it's gonna be.
It's a day. But you know what, it's not going too late, which that is what I'm thankful for. This isn't something that's going to eleven pm, so we'll still it won't. It'll be we'll be exhausted tomorrow. But also Taco Johns is dropping off. Yea excited, you know, and we can't complain about it. None of it, none of it sucks. None of it involves root canal, none of it involves like picking up trash on the side of the road. Um, So you know, And it's
once a year and it's a lot of fun. I look forward to it, and I'm excited to meet Jackson. I Jenny and I are playing lyric shuffle with her, and I think that's gonna be really fun. All right, let's get in some of the emails here, this one titled a subject Minnesota Goodbye volunteers, All right, here we go Dave Allen, Jenny Drake.
I had to share my very recent volunteer story from this past Sunday after Dave shared his from boy Scouts, and I was talking about how you volunteer for Boy Scouts and some people just never volunt and they're kind of clueless. They might be wonderful, but they will literally stand around and watch other people work. I was volunteering at concessions with a few parents and another mom was
signed up to as the assistant to the coordinator. Well, he needed no assisting, so she stood next to our concession booth and stared at her phone for four hours doing nothing. She was leaning against the truck with extra supplies, and while we would run low on things and grab more, our line would just get longer while one of us grab stuff and she never helped. It was crazy. I don't know why she thought she shouldn't help, just
because she wasn't specifically concessions, so weird. Thanks for all you do. I'm gonna keep that name anonymous, but I thought that I don't know, it's kind of like how some people like the beach and some people like the mountains. Some people get it when it comes to volunteering and helping and some people don't. I learned it from my dad, because my dad, we would go to events, and my dad would always get there early and help
set up. And even in his eighties, we would go to this like this concert with like you know, he likes like, you know, country music and that type of thing. So we'd go up to the Black Forest Community Hall and he would get there early and set up the folding chairs. And then afterward when everybody else was standing around having coffee and donuts and headed out the door. And they're in their twenties, Dad, at eighty five years old, would carry two metal folding chairs under each arm. And I
was like, that's dad, That's what he taught me. And so even when people aren't expecting me to pitch in and clean up, they I do if I think about it, and if I don't, then I stand around look at my phone. That's a joke. Well, I mean looking at your phone is a top priority. Three All right, Next one, hey guys, here's an update on Mount Eden Prairie outside a target and I took this picture six pm Monday. It is still alive and well, okay, I'm going to say it is the height of a car and a half.
Wow. And it is long. It's a long as almost as long as a football field. It is dirty. It looks like a distant mountain with trees all over it and snow covered. It's really ugly. Thanks for Shell for that one. A Mountain Eaton Prairie is still there. I would say it's got another two weeks to go. Yeah, in middle end of May. But remember Mountain Eton Prairie was the giant snow pile at the Eden Prairie. Mall, don't say I'm a name because I work in hotels, but
it's out of date. Listening to Falonies, I can confirm night hotel people are a different and weird breed of people. Okay, what was this all? Oh? You were talking about? What the honestly with Falonies it could they blur together at this point? Okay that basically, night hotel people are a different, weird breed of people. I've had to fire numerous overnight security guard for sleeping in weird places because the guy went in as a night manager
and suckled someone's toes in the night. Remember had to fire him for sleeping in weird places, doing drugs, thinking they are the actual police, and tackling guests. The worst one, however, was a dude who entered an occupied room with his pants down to a group of younger twenty something girls. Oh, there is a report of a gas leak in this room. He had his pants down. Needless to say, as soon as I heard he was fired. Let me know if you want more stories from a hotel associate,
I have many. Yeah, please sure. Absolutely reminds me of a story that happened twenty five years ago, and there may be somebody listening who remembers this story. But there was a guy in town, and I want to say he was in the Golden Valley Saint Louis Park, Ish area, and he would approach women on the street and say, Hi, Hey, I have a weird question for you. I'm going to a party tonight. I'm supposed to wear a thong and I want to show you is and tell
me is this thong too much? Is it just like too skimpy? Would you mind looking at this thong and tell me? I know it's weird? But will you tell me whether this thong is too inappropriate? And women being more polite twenty five years ago and less assertive twenty five years ago for the most part, let's admit it would go well, okay, I guess sure, and he'd pull his pants down and basically he had a tiny thong cover in his dick and his balls and that was his way of getting off and
basically legally flashing somebody with their consent. And this happened to a good friend of my fiance at the time, and she couldn't believe it. And then I told the story on the radio and other people would call in and say, oh my god, the pink thong guy. And you just think about that because he would be like wanting to flash women. But he was I don't want to say, smart enough, but evasive enough to make up a lie. So anyway, that reminded me of that story. Okay, next
one hold on one second. Yeah, Drake is leaning in looking wondering if you can talk to us. Yes, do you need us? We're in the podcast. What's up baby? Okay, okay, Drake, you want to say hi on the Minnesota goodbye Hi. He actually waved okay, so so it'll play this then get back into War of the Roses. Got it. Okay, we're multitasking right now. I mean behind the scenes, we're recording this like at nine fifteen, and War of the Roses replay is playing
on the radio right now. All right, next thing, here we go, Dave. I got a weird thing that happened to me. Also. Oh, I was talking about weird noises in my house and I heard a weird on Saturday come out of nowhere. One morning, I woke up to a woman's singing. It lasted about five seconds. I woke up my wife and told her about it. She said, maybe it's the neighbors. I was like, who sings at three or four am in the morning, and
it sounded like it was coming from inside the house. Also, there's no way it could have been my nine year old daughter, as it sounded like an older person. The dogs didn't bark either, so I knew it was kind of a supernatural thing, But just to be safe, I went around the house in basement to check it out. I am Mung and my people are very open to these kind of things. We just came back from our trip to the Bad Lands and Black Hills. I believe we probably brought something
back with us spiritually. The Black Hills are sacred to certain Native Americans, and they still consider them very, very sacred. That's why they fought so hard for them. One hundred and fifty years ago, I roasted some chili peppers on a dry pan, went around the whole house with it with all the windows open. Of course, in the Mung culture, this is the way to get rid of those kind of things. You can also try sage. I know it sounds silly, but I'm not super religious or anything,
but it worked. Haven't had anything happened since. Plus, you know that feeling when you look over your shoulder like somebody is watching you. All of those feelings are gone. We feel a lot more comfortable no matter where we are in the house, even in the basement. Good whatever helps you feel better, Like, if that worked, that's great for you, because that is a eerie feeling. I'm sure mine doesn't give me an eerie feeling. It's more of a curious, like what the fuck kind of a feeling,
like there really is somebody in the house. Because I'm a natural, logical explanation kind of a person. And that's why when I heard that heavy sigh, I thought, was it actually me? So a heavy side? And it wasn't me. I'll tell you one quick story, and I've probably told you this before, but not often or not for a long time. I was probably fifteen. My mom and dad were out of town, and I
had the run of the house to myself. One morning, I woke up and I had to walk out and let the chickens out into their yard. As I walked around the corner of the house, I heard the neighbor up the street say good morning. And I turned around and there was nobody there. So, I mean, I clear as I remember. I remember, like in my mind being surprised that my neighbor up the road was there around the corner of the house. Yeah, and we lived five hundred yards away.
It wasn't like she said it from five hundred yards away. Yeah. I turned the corner of the house, I heard good morning, and I was thinking, like your mind tries to put things together. Why is her name was Mabel? Why is Mabel right there? I turned around, There was nobody there. It was not a dream. It was not It was not I mean, it could have been my imagination could have been something firing off in my brain. I was listening to a podcast this morning, and
there's this thing called the third person. Have you heard of this before? So it's when someone is going through something like, let's say they get stranded on an island. They break their leg, they have to walk to the other side of the island where there is someone actually stationed there to get help, and somewhere along that journey they feel the presence of like another person with them to help guide them, almost get them to somehow they made it to
the other side of the island. A dead person or person which question are you asking? Sorry, So when you when you're being guided, you're walking with a broken leg to the other side of the island and you're being guided by someone, Are they dead or alive? No one knows, Okay,
so they call it the third person. It's like all of these people who've had these crazy things happen, like surviving an avalanche and trying to get help, and like struggling to find any form of life to get help, they have this experience called the third It's someone in a book wrote it called the third So it's not your father or your dead grandmother. No. Some people describe it as they think it as their dad or they think it is something
like but other people don't can't explain it at all. They just fill this presence of someone that is almost guiding them and it's like a positive thing and it's like a weird thing. And um, but I thought it was like a very interesting I've never heard of that before. And other people think they called it hallucina hallucinations because you're going through such a strong, uh scary moment
in life. And other people said no, because hallucinations are things that are make you believe something is there that isn't and that isn't Like you're not like, oh I found a body of water and I can drink water. This is different and so they're like, it's not a hallucination, it's just a feeling someone with you. It reminds me. There's the plane crash in the
Andes Mountains back in the early seventies. It was the movie Alive and it was also a book, and this plane crash was a soccer team crashed in the mountains and they thought they'd be rescued and they realized they were not going to be rescued. They actually had to eat they're dead. And then finally they said, nobody's coming. It's been thirty days, nobody's coming, or ninety days or whatever. So three guys then one went back, then two
went out to find a way out and get help. And I watched a lecture at Maplewood Mall one time by one of the guys who survived by eating his teammates and whatever and then walking out over like ridiculous rain, and he said that the thing that got him through it was the third person. He didn't say the third person, but it was the It was his father. Yeah, and his father was alive. That's why I asked, are they living or they dead? But the book is called Alive, and it is
so fascinating, it's timeless, it's told so well. It's my guy named Piers Paul read one of the best books I've ever read. That's awesome. Yeah, there's a book about this too, because the girl in the podcast got a lot of her stories from it. But it's kind of similar. Honestly, that story might even be part of it. Yeah, I wouldn't doubt it. Today on the show, we were talking about wire brushes and cleaning your barbecue grill with a wire brush, and they said, don't do
it, and I said, I did it just the other day. I mean yesterday I did. I rinsed my watched my smoker with a wire brush and then I rinsed it off. Don't do it because the metal wires can fall if you don't know it getting your food. They said, use things like scrub daddies or things. Now, the wire brush thing you mentioned on the show is one percent real. I'm a medical surgical nurse and we had a patient perforate his bowel from a wire that got cooked into his burger.
He had to have a bowel resection. Okay, that's it. I'm throwing that shit away, throwing it away, passing medical information around from TikTok. Yeah, I told you there were so many comments, and I'm like, I've never heard of that. I don't have a girl though, but I know people clean all their girls all the time with those. So yeah, think about it. Think about you had that wire situation in your salmon, and yes, and that was off. See that wasn't from a wire grill.
That wire was about if you unfolded a paper clip. I still puzzle over that. Yeah, if you unfolded a paper clip, that was how long the wire was in my salmon in Scottsdale a month or two ago, and it was a thin wire. I'm gonna guess they used it to wrap vegetables or partially or something. And that is it for the Minnesota Goodbye, big day ahead. We got stuff to do and we'll go. We're going to Star Party. I'm not sure when you listen to this one, but
obviously if you're going to Star Party, we'll see you there. Have a good time. I'm gonna guess you're probably not going to Star Party. Odds are your chances are not, but thanks for listening to us talk about Star Party for the last two months and you'll reprieve from that tomorrow. Have a good day and we'll see you tomorrow.
