Well, here we go with the Minnesota Goodbye. What's funny is that Jenny and I recorded this a couple of hours ago, and then you've heard us complain about this that we looked at the waveform and there was nothing on the waveform. The waveform is that little squiggly line when you record things, and it wasn't there. So we're coming back a couple of hours later going through the deleted email file and seeing what we got. Are you ready? I'm ready? Yeah. Oh, let's go first one. I like this one.
It's from Rainy. Rainy says, I enjoy listening to the Minnesota Goodbye in the morning show, and you speak freely and you swear in the Minnesota goodbye, but then you keep it professional ish on the morning show. You've mentioned to record the Minnesota goodbye on breaks during the morning show. My question is, how can you turn off and on this swearing inappropriate comments to ensure you don't slip while on the radio morning show and if you do, do
you get in any sort of trouble afterward? I swear on occasion, but I feel like it would be fucking hard to remain to not let a word slip out every here and there on accident. Thanks love y'all from Rainy. Do you want to take a crack at this one, Jenny, I think it's just as simple as like you can filter yourself around your grandparents or something.
It's the same with radio, and you learn to filter yourself. I will say though, that we were recording something last week and we were recording it off air, and right as we were about to go live, Dave put my microphone on real quick and I didn't realize it, and I said shit, And so then Vaughn luckily talked over it, so you didn't hear it go through on air. But all of a sudden, I was like, oh my god, my mic was on because I heard it in my headphones. So I'm like, ah, but I said it like with a
whisper. I was like shit, So you could barely hear it. And that was on the air. It was on the air. I don't think that it was at all audible. I agree with Jenny. It's just like we've been doing it long enough and experience tells us like, hey, we can you know, when I swear, I deliberately swear. I don't accident to lee swear, and I think my default is I can control myself by
default. So when I say that's fucking crazy, I've deliberately in my brain a quarter of a millisecond before decided that I'm going to say fucking It doesn't just slip out right. And I wasn't allowed to swear growing up, so I'm pretty sure I know how to filter myself ever since I was at an age where I started swearing because I wasn't even allowed to say butt in front of my parents. So I'm just good at filtering myself because I wasn't allowed
to swear. Oh you know, it's funny. I get in trouble in kindergarten for saying butt, and I remember the teacher, missus Heath, picked me up. So, because you know you're a kindergartener, you're probably forty pounds. Yeah, she picked me up and she said, what did you say? Right in her face. I can still picture her face right in front of mine, what did you say? And I be in a little asshole, I said, I said, but but I met like a cigarette. But she's like, now I had to stay in from recess that day.
But no, it's really not that hard. So I don't know it's just not that hard. But if we did it on the air, would we be in trouble? Me? Yeah, I mean there used to be. Okay, I'll give you a little bit of history lesson. So right after Janet Jackson showed her nurple on the Super Bowl, well Dustin Timberlake showed her nurple. True, yes, right, But right after that, a
lot of people said this has gone too far radio and TV. We need to crack down on all the obscenity and all the disgusting filth and blah blah blah. So radio stations were told do not swear. If you do, you will get fired and the station will be fined. So there was no swearing of any kind. And the rule in our company, and I don't think it was iHeart at the time. I think it was Channel Clear Channel.
Yes. Their rule was if somebody on the air radio swears, they get fired, and if a boss tries to come to their defense, they will get fired as well. So there was no there was no swearing, and that was because of the whole Janet Jackson thing. And so for a long time nobody swore on the radio. But one guy here at the radio station really nice guy. I didn't know him that well. He was out
the State Fair. He didn't realize that he was on the air because somebody had him turned up on Cities ninety seven and he was like, he said, oh, what the fuck or something, and he got fired. Oh no, no, it was totally unintentional. It was totally an accident. But he got fired anyway because that was the rule. Yeah. Now I don't think we would get fired, but we still. Well, there's fines though, because I'm pretty sure people have been fined for swear words being slipped
very possibly. Yes, I'm sure it is next one, Dave, I noticed you criticize Chris Brown quite a bit in the Morning Show because of the two thousand and nine assault on Rihanna. On Monday, you mentioned Chris Brown while discussing Diddy. This incident happened fifteen years ago. He was arrested, paid his debt to society, and looks like made amends with his victim as
well. Diddy is accused of much more serious allegations against many victims. I think the criticism after of Chris Brown after all these years is unfair, and I think he has taken the continued criticism well, I don't support what he did, but I understand people make mistakes, sometimes horrible, but people deserve second chances. Your station continues to play his songs, profit off of him, but you speak so negatively about him. Is there a point in time
where you would accept his mistake and move on from that respectfully. No, Honestly, I think that Chris Brown, this is what I think it is when you beat a woman, You're doing it so deliberately, and it's harmful physically and immediately to another person's safe. If I shoplift a thing of deodorant from Target, Okay, I didn't hurt anybody, it was astute. That's a mistake. Punching a woman in the face is not a mistake. That is character. Yeah, I've never come close to punching a woman or hitting
a woman and pushing it. Never because I don't think I have it in my character. Am I perfect? Oh? Yeah, absolutely, I'm perfect. Yeah. But I don't think that Chris Brown deserves forgiveness because I don't think that that's happened in a vacuum. I think that abuse, whether it's child abuse or abuse against a spouse or partner, is it'll happen the first
time, but it's almost always not the last time. Well, and I think that you this person emailed saying that he paid his dues or whatever it was, But like, if you look at his raft sheet, he's got lots of other charges against him for other assault of fighting in clubs. I know that he I think there was a restraining order of an ex girlfriend that was put out against him. So most likely, I just don't think that Chris Brown has cleaned up his act. Well, here's another thing. Think
about this one. If you you know that you say he's paid his debt to society, let's say that, Oh no, no, let's say your cousin Bob beat the shit out of his wife and put her in a coma. Well, they put him in prison for fifteen years, he comes out fifteen years later. Do you go, well, you know he served his time. He's a great guy again. Fuck no, no, absolutely not.
I do believe in is reformation, legal legally not character wise. Uncle Bob is still always going to be a piece of shit that put your aunt in a coma. He might have served his legal obligation, because there's got to be a limit to the legal obligation maybe if it's not life or death. But to me, uncle Bob can go fuck himself and he's not coming over for the fourth of July. Yeah, I mean, I agree with that. I do think that like the prison system does help some people change
their act. It just really depends on how they take it. So but once again, of course, like uncle Bob is an asshole and he should have never done what he did. Okay, next one, hold on, there are some of these that it I deleted them, so I have to go back through the deleted file. Let's see. No, we already did, okay, so I think we might be caught up. Let's well, we didn't do the one with the y. Yeah, we go back. We're gonna do that one. This I found was very very interesting and let
me see if I can find it here. It is, Okay. This is from a listener who heard last week we had a woman on the phone who was talking about how she's got a sister. They're about a year apart in age. One sister is gorgeous and the other one is very ordinary looking. She says, I look like a dude. I sound like a dude. And she was actually really funny she was, She said her sister, wherever she goes, guys will come up and deliberately say, I just got
to tell you you're the most beautiful woman I've seen in my life. And her sister's like, fuck, I'm tired of this. You know, can't I go pump gas? Can't I go write it? You know, like take out a loan without somebody going you're the most beautiful. And so this woman writes in and she says, I want to talk about the lady who called in last week about her sister who constantly gets complimented on. I am the less attractive sister who constantly deals with my hot sister getting complimented. She
is gorgeous, and she puts in the effort to be beautiful. Meanwhile, I'm super average and I always have been photo attached for reference, we both looked at the photo and I can describe them as one looks like an Instagram model. She's got the blonde hair, she's got the beautiful face and the
big white smile. The other sister is attractive, but let's face it, she her sister looks like an Instagram model, and like, just you know, your friend from across the street So my sister and I were driving together Friday and chatting about this convo we heard on KATIEWB. She laughed because she was like, wait, is that Sydney calling in? Here are a couple of real encounters my beautiful sister is dealt with. And although I still roll my eyes because I wish I was prettier, I am glad I cannot even
relate to these instances. She used to bartend part time and constantly guys tried hitting on her while she was working. One day, a guy said, I'll bet I can guess your shirt size. It's a large because she's got big boobs and she's not dumb. So she called him out for being an ass and told him never say anything like that to a woman again. Walking into them all, apparently somebody noticed her and wrote a note that they left
on her car, so she saw it when she came back out. It said I saw you walking in. I just want you to know that you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. She gives so many other examples of men regularly saying something to her, and she usually sassily flash she's her wedding ring in their face and tells them walk away. Guys, you can compliment women, but don't be dumb about it. And if she's super gorgeous, you're not winning any extra points for telling her how beautiful she is. Keep
it internal and keep on walking. Thanks all cheers from Sydney. I've said before that when you tell a gorgeous woman that she's beautiful, she's heard it. She's heard it before. A friend of mine was about six foot tall, she was blonde, she was very fit, and she's like, I get so tired of it, she says, I know that it works in my favor, but I get so tired of guys telling me how beautiful I am. I know I'm beautiful and it's not a compliment. It's just kind
of gross. And I'm like, oh, that's an interesting take on things. So they've heard it before. But I'm also going to call out guys for saying something stupid like can I guess your shirt size? It's large? And there was a guy on Twitter a couple of weeks ago and it said somebody posted a picture of like missus USA, like miss like whatever, like not a twenty eight year old Miss USA, but a forty eight year old Missus USA. So some guy on Twitter commented, yeah, but it's like
throwing a hot dog down a hallway. You've heard that expression, right, cost I have, and I, as a guy, I was annoyed, as like, dickhead number one, that joke is from eighth grade. Number two, I'm gonna be another guy that calls out a fellow guy on being a fucking pig. It's a picture of a pretty woman and she's looks great for forty eight. She looks great for whatever. Nobody is here to make a joke about how you can throw a hot dog down a hallway. And
I said, that's not funny. And in his profile he's like, I'm a writer, I'm a humorist, blah blah. And I said, and you call yourself a writer, but you use the oldest joke in the world that you didn't even write. And he's like, that's the irony of it. I was trying to be funny because it's so ironic because it's an old joke. I'm like, no, you weren't. So yeah, anyway, let's go to another one. Let's try we got a bunch more, let's
try this one. I wanted to bring your attention to a newish phenomenon on the podcast listening to the six AM hour yesterday called did It Happen in the nineteen forties? The podcast starts with a commercial, which is expected. Then at two fifty another two commercials play. This is about a minute of commercials in the first three minutes of your podcast. Further, I noticed the commercials being placed in terrible places, like cutting off the reveal of a big story
and the commercial cuts off a few seconds of the next audio. You never get to hear it. Is this making sense? No? I mean, we try to play some in certain spots, so I'll have to talk. Vaughn does all of the podcasting stuff now, so I'll double check. But I mean, if it's a new phenomenon in the last few days, then I don't know why it's doing that, because Vaughan's been doing it right since
he started helping with that. Okay, yeah, I honestly I don't listen to the podcast, so I rely on you to let us know how it the experience is, and we haven't talked about it in a while, but it's important that you have a good experience. I've noticed an increasing number of advertisements so close together. Often the same one playing within a minute or two in between. What has caused this change? Is anybody else getting this increase
in commercials and them being played so close together. Further they way the way they sometimes cut out part of the show or intersect high interest points of the show make it difficult to follow love y'all from Whitney. I don't know what to say. Yeah, I mean, they shouldn't be doing that. If we're doing them correctly. I will look into it and I'll just double check
that we're doing it correctly. But I think the only thing I've tried to explain before is that sometimes when we have our hour of commercial free talking, if we don't have a single break in there, there has to be a commercial place to every twenty minutes. Okay, so that's where it's going to cut off a random conversation because like, we literally can't chop up that chunk. There's no way with the podcasting system we use to chop it up.
It will come in like forty minute chunks. So then iHeart is going to play something twenty minutes in in the middle of it. Okay, that's interesting for us to consider what could we put in because I know you're talking between seven twenty and eight fifteen. What element could we put in that would break it up? I mean a song helps, because if there's anything to break
it up that would help, but we could I'm trying to think. Sometimes certain audio elements can help break things up, but mostly just a song is what would help break up that entire thing of talking. For like, if we are talking that whole time, and we aren't necessarily always like sometimes well at the dance party, that gets cut out because we're not allowed to have that in there, So that helps break it up. War of the Roses. We always always have a song in between it. So it just I
don't know. I guess it just depends. Does it come back, I'll ask you, Whitney, when it rejoins, does it rejoin at the spot that it cut off? Or does it cut off? Like if it plays two minutes of commercials, does it cut off two minutes of the show. I don't know. Something we're working on. It's frustrating to me, and because it's kind of like putting out a product that's not as good as it could be. All right, next one, let's try this one. Happy
birthday again to you Jennifer, Oh, thank you. I wanted to ask how your experience was it the Fisherman's Daughter in Grand Ray. The restaurant's owned by a lady from Thief River Falls, where I live. I haven't had a chance to visit, but I heard it's good. What do you want to say about the Fisherman's Daughter. Oh, it was super good food.
It's a quick, like order at the counter, they bring you the food to the table, and it was really there was kind of a long line so it was a little bit of a long wait to actually order, but the food came out really quick. It was very fresh, super good food. I liked it a lot, and we were trying to go to a restaurant next door, but it was like an hour and twenty minute wait. F this, We're going next door to the place that we're going to get
food in like fifteen minutes. Well that sucks, because you one of the reasons you go up north is to escape the crowds. Yeah, I think it was busy at the north Shore. It was a busy weekend on the north Shore, I think because of the air show in Duluth. But like it was one of the first probably nicer weekends where it was above sixty degrees
up there, so I think a lot of people just went away. There were so many campers, RVs, camper bands and stuff, so I think it just was a busier weekend as the season starting to start, and then summer is even more. Okay, Yeah, that's one of the things I like about the North Shore, and I honestly haven't spent a whole lot of time up there, but that's what. You know, You're driving three or four hours away and you want to get away from the crowds and here and
there's an hour and a half wait to get into a restaurant. It's really disheartening. It's a small restaurant, so I just want to clarify that, and a lot of places in Grand Marae are not open right now, so I think it was just like one of the main places people were all going to, and we went right at six pm, like prime dinner time.
So that's why I think it was so bad. I think it probably is like that during the busy seasons, but there weren't many other options of people being able to go anywhere else because it's just a small city, like there's not too many not a lot of room to absorb the crowds. Yeah, also, Dave. I bought Dave's Amazing Day for our daughter's fourth birthday. She opened it up on Saturday, and I was geeking out excited for her
to open it. Her reaction fell flat. No, only because the book was competed against new hairties, new frozen socks, bubbles, a microphone, radio, and a new bike. Well, but we read it together for the first time last night at bedtime. It is an adorable book. You should be very proud of yourself. I hope to catch a book signing someday. I'm guessing I'll probably attend one sooner than Jenny ever will haha, and I live five hours away. And then she signs off, right, have
a good day. P one listener a Lissena Alyssa. I'll send a picture later of our daughter reading your book. I love it. Thank you. I'm really glad that you liked it. I'm glad that she liked it. It does. I think the thing about the book is there's so many things to point out in the pictures, then the illustrations. There's so many things that tell a story on their own. So you read the story and then you look at the pictures and they tell a story all their own. Yeah.
Next one, Oh, that's about Jonathan Fogel, So we'll save that for tomorrow. Look forward it to me, please sure, Okay, I'm going to delete that, and I'm going to hit this and this one doesn't have any content in it, and then this one is quite long, so I will have to get to that one another day. But we'll try to get that that one first on the Minnesota Goodbye tomorrow. So please send your emails to Ryan Show at KDWB dot com for the next Minnesota Goodbye. Thank you for listening.
