Transcript

All right, let's get rolling here on the man Minnesota. Goodbye. What are you doing that's social? Because we talked yesterday about how you can cure your languishing. I'm probably gonna go to trivia night, or if I don't go to trivia night, I'll probably go play cribbage at a brewery somewhere rather than sit at home. I told Susan last night, I'm so tired of every night is the same. It's just become such a routine. We make dinner and we eat in front of the TV and then we watch either suits.

Last night we watched a big little lies and said, you know what, nothing against you. I'm going to go do something different, probably tonight, meaning tomorrow night. Right, I don't have anything much going on during the week except for tomorrow night. I'm going to be at this Fashion Week

fashion show, so that's a little bit unique and different for me. But the next couple of weekends are kind of big for me because I have a little staycation thing in still Water with some girlfriends for birthday, and then next weekend I'm going back to Whisky Onsen for my dad's retirement party, and then my niece's birthday party too, So I kind of have a busy couple weekends. Yeah, so I don't. I'm not like trying to overschedule myself for

too much during the week. Let's talk about your fashion show. Jenny is nervous. This fashion show is Wednesday night, and you're nervous about doing it. Are you truly nervous or you just like you don't know what to expect. I don't know what to expect, which is what causes a lot of anxiety for me, because I always need to like I need control over situations a lot to Yeah, I know, Oh, I mean, yeah,

that's great. So I think I don't know what to expect. I'll be honest, I haven't been given a lot of details until I've asked for them. And there was already a dress rehearsal last week that I wasn't a part of. So it's kind of like I just feel like I'm a little behind and I'm just kind of getting chehorned in with a bunch of actual models who will be really good at it. I wouldn't worry about it. You're you don't really have an expectation. You're an amateur. You can walk, you

can you follow instructions. That's really all you need to do. I mean, you don't have to get that fierce London Paris catwalk attitude. You're just gonna walk and every other dorky radio DJ Meat Sauce and Max from k Fan and probably I don't know, Chris Carr people like that are going to be there, Rusty Gate and be Jason Russ going to be there. Jason Jason Jason Russia Russia. Yeah, I mean he might be there too. Those are the people that get and it's a that's a celebrity. I've done them

before. You. The worst part of it is they're like, Okay, go down to Mall of America on Thursday at four to get fitted. Well, you go down Thursday at four to Mall of America, you get fitted, and then they ship the clothes to the venue. You go backstage, you show up in regular clothes. You have a dressing room, you get your clothes on, and then they're like, okay, you stand right here. Okay, Jenny. When it's when I say your name, you walk to the end of the walkway, you stand there, you like do a

funny little whatever, and then you walk back and then you're done. See. That sounds like a lot more organized of a situation that you've been in before than what I've been dealing with because I don't even know what I'm wearing, and they're basically just bringing me stuff the day of hoping it's going to fit me. Oh no, kidding? Really well, yeah, I mean

I said measurements over so obviously that's helpful. But I have a very decently unique curvy body that like things don't fit me like a lot of people fit into other things. So I'm just nervous. I'm gonna get there and I'm like, sorry, this doesn't fit. You can't walk. I'll be like, all right, fine, ceiling. She's wearing something that's like this looks like a sausage. Yeah, okay, well good, I think you'll do

fine. It's funny because we've been doing this for such a long time that we often deal with people who are putting together their first charity event, and and so one of the things that we kind of laugh at is people will say, hey, Okay, we are going to do this charity event and it starts at seven o'clock on Wednesday night. We'd really like you to get there about three o'clock so we can go through, you know, some notes, and then go through a run through and then I want to give you

a copy of your speech in whatever. And we usually and we don't try

to be dicks about it. But I got this from a local TV newswoman who's quite successful, and she has made a rule that if you want to ask her to come and host your charity event, if a meeting is required in advance, and a planning meeting is required in advance, she'll say no. She'll say, because I've done so many of these, email me the document, I'll go over the document, and then I'll show up not four hours early, but I'll show up an hour early, because you know,

you want to be respectful. But it's like, and I kind of learned that too. It's like, if there's a charity event and they say, Dave, yeah, we're going to have a meeting on that Saturday night at eight o'clock, we're going to meet down at Caribou and then we want you to get to the venue four hours early. So I'm I've I learned from this woman that your time is more valuable than that, and you don't because what you end up doing is you get there and you we heard something that

they could have gone over in an email. Yeah, and I learned that from you, learning that from hers because I had had an event once and then you told me what you had learned from that person, and I was like, you're right. Moving forward, I have to be a little bit more like strict on what my availability is if I'm going to be helping out.

Other. People are very generous with your time. So in other words, I'm like, Jenny, you know what we're doing, this big dog walk thing coming up on Saturday. It only goes from ten until four. It's on a Saturday. It's your day off. You don't mind coming. And you're like, fuck you, I'm not coming to four or six hours on my day off. Yeah no, not on my day off, that's for sure. And six hours is way too long. Well, and that's what I mean. People are very generous with your time. Let's get out

of the emails. Here we go. I live in Bloomington, and anybody in this city right now knows it's curb side cleanup. This is an amazing program where you put your crap on your curb and the garbage company will come and get it. It can pretty much moost anything. They have random guidelines of what they don't accept. My question is there are so many people who pick up the most random things. We had a big screen TV that was

broken. I put it the curb, it was picked up. I've had random rolls of tubes, broken chairs, and tables that have been picked up. Who are these people picking up broken stuff? And why are they picking it up? What on earth are they using it for? You know what's funny? I don't know, but we talked about this yesterday. A friend of mine went to a rage room where you break things, like there's a

video of them breaking a desk and an old Cassio keyboard. Is it possible that a rage room would pick this stuff up because it's free take it to the rage room where like somebody comes in and pays forty dollars for an hour to beat stuff up with a bat. I absolutely three that. I also think that there's a lot of crafty people out there that we'll find something and be like I can do something with this. I can put together some art or whatever it might be. So I think people just I don't know,

I'm a sucker for if a lot of people are moving out. Usually it's like end of August, beginning of September. There's a lot of curb furniture. I'm a sucker for looking around the curb furniture and seeing if there's anything.

There was just a bed headboard. Last night, Anrew and I took a dog for a walk and the dog were watching it should say, not just a random dog, and we were like, should we take it and try to sell it on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace because it was just the headboard and you could tell like other parts of it had been ripped where the outline of the bed and the mattress would have fit in. So it's just the

headboard. But it was a nice headboard. But then I was like, I'm not dealing with this, Like I know, I love to make a little extra dollars here and there by selling things on basebook marketplace, but I'm not taking this random headboard. You know, some people really like doing that. I will tell you one thing that we put out. It was a nineteen nineties era TV stand and it was like fake veneer Tannish wood, probably about two and a half feet high, would fit an old tube TV on.

It had glass doors, in the front where you put your DVDs and your VHS's and whatever. And I thought, Oh, somebody's gonna love that for their dorm room, or some new young couple that doesn't have any money. And I set it by the curb a year ago with a free sign. Nobody picked it up. And I was really surprised that nobody. You rich of a neighborhood, you put that bad boy in near my neighborhood.

That thing would have been gone in two seconds. Maybe you're right, I mean, you might be right because our neighborhood is a little bit more upscale than your dump of a neighborhood. I know what a dump it is. Dump It smells like one too, the guadge, the gunfire and the constant smell of meth cooking, and Jenni's neighborhood. Now we brought up the wrecket

the rage room a minute ago, coincidentally will flow into this one. Dave Jenny Vaught, my amazing customers, let me know you had mentioned rage rooms and the record rage room and savage came out. I would be thrilled to host you guys, or even have a deeper conversation about the benefits of visiting a rage room. As a side note, Dave, I grew up listening to you on the school bus. I fondly remember hearing young Shy Allison on the radio every so often, and now she's got kids of her own.

It just makes my heart so happy. To hear you mention her is like an instant flashback two simpler times. And I just realized, how wor there's candy in my pocket? Old eyes sound okay, that's funny anyway, You and your show are such a huge part of so many people's lives. Although it might not have been a happy time in some of our lives, you contribution wasn't shitty and that's all it took to be a bright spot. That is very sweet. Lastly, I would like to find out how to be

a part of Christmas wish. Everyone you help has big feelings and I've been dealing with that while doing their best to keep it together. I would love to donate many sessions for these families. It can all be anonymous. I'm not after the average. I'm after doing something good for these people. Looking forward to hearing you. That is from G from Record Rage Room in Sabbath. Nice G. Thank you very much for offering. We will get a

hold of you and we'll see when come down there to do that. Yeah, I would consider the Christmas wish thing too, because that might be kind of a cool thing. If you're like going through some struggles and whatever, and you lost your job and your wife is undergoing chemo, it might be fun to, like, you know, take you and your kids down to the record rage room. That's an interesting contribution on Christmas wish. Yeah, but I like changing it up. What do you think? I like it

a lot. I think that getting out and doing experiences are very important for a lot of these families, especially if someone doesn't have a lot of time left, and a lot of times I know that that they might not have the energy to do something like that, But still I think that it's such a cool experience to do with someone. Yeah, so thanks for offering. And then the last one, don't use my name. Well, I got Dave and vont beat on people stealing parking spaces. We talked about this either

on the Minnesota Get Behind. We talked about it yesterday because someone tried to steal mine and you told me how you spit on someone's one shield, And I think bought through a smoothie or a drink or something on someone else's right. Okay, this goes on to say we rid them all. It was a very busy day and over ninety degrees. Somebody did the swoop in while my blinker was on and I was waiting for that spot. I rolled down

my window when they got out and said not cool. I would have left it at that, but they said too bad, sukka, oh while laughing, Well that did it. I remember the car found a new spot. When we got out of the car, I grabbed my boyfriend's chew spit cup and sloshed it on their windshield. We got back to our car an hour later and their car was still there with ninety degree crusted spit on the windshield. Yes, immature and childish, but it felt good seeing it, all

right. I love that because you know, in the end it's harmless. You didn't, like, you know, key their cars slash their tire. They just had a stinky, disgusting mess on their windshield. So I love that. I think it's great. If they said too bad, suka, they could have said, oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know that you were waiting for the spot so they proved they were a jerk, so they had it coming. We talked about this earlier, so I'm going to try

to say something inflammatory to get some emails going. Here, Taylor Swift is overrated and nobody should really like Taylor Swift. Now, the reason I bring this up is not because I feel that way, is because I was talking about this earlier on the show about how and by the way I like Taylor Swift. I'm not as Swifty by any means, but I like her and respect her. So I'm just saying that to be inflammatory because I think that

might get some emails going. But there was an article that I read in a podcast that I listened to this morning on the way into work about how Taylor Swift will break up friendships because if a Swifty loves Taylor Swift and spends four thousand dollars on a par of tickets to go see Taylor Swift, and her friend might go, ah, God, I just don't get it. And people, you know, if you don't get Jenny, if you don't get like baseball, Like if I love baseball and you're like, I don't

get it, I don't care. But Taylor Swift is such an iconic, meaningful part of some people's lives that it because it's almost like a religion or like, that's your friend, and now you're saying, ah, I don't get it. So friendships have actually broken up over one friend loving Taylor Swift and the other friend kind of mocking her for that. So let me ask you a question. Has that ever happened with you with Taylor Swift? And let me know If you've argued with anybody about the Dave Ryan Show, send

me an email. If you argue with your partner or your friend and your friend is like, God, they're so stupid and Jenny is so arrogant or Dave is so boring or whatever it is, then send us an email and let me know so we'll see if we get anything there. I know I'm excited, but I'm also terrified what might come in. Uh yeah, and be hard on us because that'll be more interesting. You're like, yeah, well, you know, I don't, but send me something for the Minnesota

Goodbye for tomorrow and we will see you then on the Minnesota Goodbye. Oh by the way, the email address Ryan Show at KDWB dot com.
