Well, hello and welcome to the Minnesota Goodbye, the after the show podcast that we do every single day that is mostly made up of emails from you, Jenny. Have a question for you. Where do you store your ideas? When you have an idea for the show, or an idea for a trip, or an idea for a song you want to download, where do you store it? I put mine in my Apple Watch because it's got a little recording voice memo section, and I put it right in there, and
then once a week I'll listen back to see what I recorded. Yeah, I do my notes app in my phone, so everything goes in there. Whenever I have a random idea, I put it in there, or if I'm near my computer for show stuff. Then we use a Google calendar. Well by we, I mean I use a Google calendar, but everyone has access to it. Okay, yeah, I never go on there, but I know that you do. So all right, let's get started with the emails on the Minnesota Goodbye. We got a bunch and I love this one.
Shy Len writes. In Saturday night, we had a girl's night and still water there. I was drinking my beer, eating my food. My sister yells, there's Jonathan Foegel. We bolt out of our chairs and run over to him. You would have thought we'd seen Taylor Swift. His fiance was so nice and thought it was so funny that we wanted a photo with him. Hi, Bailey, where are you been? I was talking to Vont the other room. Oh that's fine, I don't care here, here's
totally yeah. I just wondered if you were anywhere interesting. Oh, just talking to Vance. Okay, what are you guys talking about? We were talking about that pencil around the Lake of the Isle. Oh funny. You want to see the pencil they're talking about it. It's in Vaunt's Weekend in five photos, and it's just called the pencil, called the low T Pencil and Loti for Lake of the Asles. If you walk around Lake of the Asles, you'll see it. It's one of the houses right off of the
the parkway. Okay, I used to go for walks down that way once in a while, but I have not in a long time. My Comfort Lake, I'm always around that one. She goes on to say, I attached a photo. She'd probably explain our shirts a group of his head to buy each other a nasty sh shirt. We don't normally dress like this, and our friends definitely thought we were crazy for getting a picture with a lawyer.
And for the record, I'm not a squirter. Now. The reason she brings this up it was a bachelorette or girls night out party, so they all had to buy each other girl tacky vulgar shirts. So I'm going to read some of these shirts that are in the photo. Now, they're a little bit dicey, but this one says squirter for daddy. Wow. Okay. Another one says I love sucking Dix with my butthole. These that printed on the front of shirts, Yes, this is a trend right now.
You get like a cringy shirt that you have to wear. Well yeah, cringey shirts, yeah, but not vulgar to that extent. Sorry, keep going, I want to hear more. This was the only shirt I had with com on it, Okay, with or with without? Come on it? Yeah, you're right, my yeast infection itches throat, goat. I want to tongue punch your fart box. And then this one I can't. There's a couple I can't read because not because they're too vulgar. But
because they're I can't see them. But it's a group of normal, average looking twenty five thirty two year old women who are all wearing these obscene shirts. And I think that's a funny idea. I love that. I love that. Oh man, maybe I'm getting too old, but that's a little too much for me to wear. Something about squirting or fart boxes. If you wear a shirt, which one would you wear? This was the only shirt I had without com on it. No, my yeast infection itches that
one squirter for daddy, throat goat. I want to tongue punch your fart box. I love sucking dicks with my butthole. And then I can't read the rest of them. I probably do throat goat, throat, goat, east infection one, oh state fair t shirts. Which one of those should I name the podcast for Daddy? Like him? Not doing that one? That is too much? Okay, throat goat? Okay, throat goat, Okay, perfect, All right, Let's go on to the next one.
No, that's not a Minnesota Goodbye one. Let's try this one. And no, that's not a I'm trying to find one that's for Minnesota, Goodbye. That's not a press release. That's not a press release, and it's not one for the regular show. Okay, So we talked about whether the kids die at the end of Willy Wonka. Oh yeah, this came as
a big shock to me. I've seen this movie a couple of times, and I saw it, you know, when I was a kid, and I've always just assumed that Willy Wonka brings the dead kids back to life or they're not really hurt. But then Bailey said, no, they do die
in the book and the musical. Yeah, they're dead. Andrew, a staff writer from Ohio, says in the Johnny Depp Willy Wonka movie, at the end, as they're in the elevator, they show the kids leaving, except the Blueberry Girl is extra flexible, Mike TV is super tall from being stre and Veruka and her dad are covered in garbage. I forget about Augustus Gloop. But the other kids are all seen leaving the factory in the Johnny dept version. So they survive in the Johnny Depp version. I mean that
is that the main version. No, it's the one with Wilder. It's an adapt adaptation. Yeah, and they adapted it wrong. Okay, I like that be He's like, no, the kids should die what they're meant to die in it. That's cannon. Let's see, Virginny. I heard you mention you're bleeding gums a few times now. I thought i'd tell you what I did to stop my bleeding gums. My gums would bleed every day when I flossed. My gums would always bleed when the dental hygienis would floss
my teeth. I did some research and I found out about rinsing with peroxide. Okay, you little backstory on this. Your gums bleed when you please? Just we're talking about flossing it, and I said that mine bleed. It looks like a scene from Jaws in my mouth when I fly, Yeah, right right right. When I brush before bed, I always follow with a prodoxide rinse, swish it around as long as you can spit it out of rinse with water. This for two years, once a day, there
is no plaque on my teeth or gums. My gums no longer bleed. My teeth feel smooth and clean like they do when I get them cleaned. The dentist give it a shot. It works. That is from renee. Good to know. So rinse out with peroxide rints. I don't know if it's peroxide like a bottle of peroxide, or if there is a rinse with them. I think you dilute the peroxide and just use that as a mouthwash.
Just mix some water in with it. Okay. When I was a kid, I discovered that if you put peroxide on any wound, it would foam. And I was fascinated by that, Like if you had a scratch, like I remember I crawled through a barbed wire fence one time and I got a scratch and somebody said, we'll put peroxide on it. I'm like, oh, what's peroxide? We'll just put it on there and it would foam, and I was fascinated by that. Does anybody else have any idea
what I'm talking about? No, I don't. I just picked my scabs. I was like one of those kids who just was always picking our scabs. Okay, naturally, but yeah you can, like, yeah, you put it on a wound of any kind of bubbles a little bit bit. Yeah, yeah, kind of like when you put it in your ears to clean your ears out? Is that a thing? Everybody did, or just me what you like, pour peroxide into your ear and you like lay down in your couch and then it bubbles up and then you clean out your ear.
No. Never, No, is that a thing? Seriously, we would do that. I mean not all the time, but we would do that throughout my childhood to clean out your ears. So, like, if you are like, oh, my ears feel like they're full of ear wax or something, just lay down on the couch or on your bed or something, pour peroxide into it and let it sit for like five minutes really, and then you put a cotton ball on it, turn your head back over and then it'll like leak out on the cotton ball. Throw away the cotton
ball, and then do the next ear. Is it effective? Does a big ball of wax come out with it? I mean sometimes the cotton ball is like kind of orangey brown and gross, and then I just kind of like use a Q tip to get the rest of it. But I mean it feels kind of nice. It's cool to have like a weird bubble sensation in your ear. I had a nurse clean out my ears when I was probably in high school or college one time because I was at the at the
doctor, and I don't know how it came up. I really don't know if the doctor said, yeah, you need to clean his ears or what. But I could not believe as a high school not like an old fart, but as a high school kid, like the huge amount of old dark wax that builds up in our ears and they like shoot water out at your ear when you set about. The doctor yeah, it's kind of fun. Yeah, And she rinsed it out and I couldn't believe what was coming out
of there. I was like, WHOA, that's embarrassing. She's like, nah, this is nothing, this is Becky writes in again, these are people that are asking for shine, doown cruise tickets and some other things. So I got to kind of scoop through here a little bit. I don't know why I use the word scoop. Scoop Andop love the Morning Show with everyone in the podcast. I recently started listening to I cannot stand the music on KATWB but I understand that's not your fault. But what's with all what
is all of you guys's favorite musical genres? Mine is old rap, old country, old rock, but pretty much anything after I was born two thousand and one I don't listen to, so hopefully this makes the podcast into the podcast. So they have a really cool name. Their name is Maverick, So Maverick. They were born in two thousand and one, which would make them about twenty three or so, twenty two or twenty three, and they don't listen to anything after they were born. So let's go around the room.
I would say that, you know, I think a lot of the time, the stuff that we most love to listen to is stuff that we listen to when we were younger. So my stuff is probably like a lot of eighty stuff, some ninety stuff, but I also like some newer stuff. But I'm gonna if I'm gonna go back to it's probably gonna be stuff I'd listened to in high school or college, you know, from back then.
What about you, Bailey, Well, I mostly listen to musical theater, let's be honest, like Broadway soundtracks, and then also like classic rock from late seventies early eighties. Really yeah, what band off the top of your head? Like classic rock? Yeah? Like the Eagles? Oh really? Oh yeah, We're like Leonard skinnerd Freebird truly, Freebird is my famite. Oh, it's so good. I love Freebird so much, but that
really there's just so much. I mean, if like we're driving to Ohio to visit my grandma, we just go to different classic rock stations along the way. I have them all written down for the entire road trip, so we can just listen to classic rock the whole time. What about you, Jenny, I am so all over the place because it depends on what I'm doing. I listened to em music a ton, especially when I'm working out.
I'm like illuminears Noah kN kind of gal. When I'm in like more of a peaceful maybe I'm getting ready for the morning show kind of vibe. If I'm out for a walk, it could be just like Taylor Swift Radio that I'm listening to on iHeart. I'm really all over the place. And I also love classic rock too, that's my vibe. Literally, listen to Cool on a eight all the time. Even though Cool one a weight, it's starting to play like what I grew up listening to, and it's not
even like classic rock as much anymore. So now I need to find a different station. It's so funny because when I first moved here, Cool one away played stuff from like the late fifties Elvis Yeah and Buddy Holly seventies. Yeah, and now I mean they're they're appealing to not a certain kind of music, but a certain age. So they want people in their probably their forties, fifties, sixties to listen to Cool one oh eight because usually those
people have a lot of disposable income. You're a little bit older, you've been saving, you're established in your life, in your career, So Cool one o eight we'll play music not from the fifties, sixties and seventies anymore, but about from the maybe that mostly the eighties. When you say nineties, well, it's like nineties now all little? Is it? Really? Yes? I mean like Ace of Bass, I know that. I'm trying to think of other ones. When they started playing Nirvana, I was like,
this is weird. Yeah, why is this happening? Or even they've played like the Santana like Rob Thomas, they put max Box twenty yeah, and I'm like, why am I hearing Matchbox twenty on Cool one oh eight, which is sixty seventies to me? Wow, that's yeah, it's still like it's still should be an oldies station and I get those are those are thirty forty year old songs. Another one from Stephanie says, my husband and I do a staycation once again at a nice hotel in Minneapolis. This year,
we chose the Four Seasons and we are here now. This was written Friday afternoon at three twenty four. It happens to be when a big Timberwolves game occurred Thursday when we arrived. Bummer that they lost. We just got off the elevator with common Nice and the whole Mavericks NBA team is here. Wow. We also ran into a WNBA player and a brother of the Timberwolves with his kids. What are the chances our couple's staycation anniversary trip has brought
us face to face with so many fancy people? Wow? Also, the Four Seasons is amazing. We've never been here before, but it is one hundred percent the best hotel we've stayed in so far. Anyway, had to share. I'm excited to see if we've run into anybody else, since we have two more days before checkout. What a cool little staycation trip. Net. I don't know anything about the four Seasons. What is so great about the four Seasons? Jenny very new hotel, probably the newest one downtown.
It's extremely fancy, fancy restaurants. I think there's a rooftop. They've got like a nice deck area. Lots of events get held on that deck area. And then that's where it's rumored that all the clubs stay if they're in town. Cool. Okay, Okay, you gotta go start hanging out in the lobby at the four y. Yeah, it's Timberley. It used to be the Whitney because the Whitney was. It's condos now and it's over by the old North Star Blanket factory. Is that sign still up that says north
Star Blankets. It's right by that, and it used to be called the Whitney, and that is where everybody stayed. Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, led Zeppelin, and Kiss all stayed there that I know of. Everybody stayed there. And we got to meet Kiss in the lobby one time because they were staying there. It was my birthday and their manager found out it was my birthday and blah blah blah said, hey, they're willing to meet you meet him in the lobby and Kiss came down the stairs just like regular guys,
and it was like, you know, okay who they are. You wouldn't know who any of the guys in kiss are really, I say, let the face manded. I probably wouldn't know either. Yeah, I mean I knew because I'm a big fan. Next one, Dave Jenny vont Bailey first of off, Love first off. Loved the new crew. Happy to hear Vonton Bailey join the Dave Ryan Show. I was listening and I heard you talk about losing track of your kids. I have two stories I'd like
to share about losing track of your kids that weren't mine. I haven't lost mine yet lol. The first one I was in the mall about five years ago. I saw mom and kid talking at Dillard's and she was already fussing to him about staying close by. An hour later, saw the same kid crying by the play area. So I walked up and he was saying he couldn't find his mom. It turns out he couldn't speak any English, only
Mandarin, which I spoke. Also, what are these chances? So I comforted him and I told him to stay close to me and I'll see what I can do. I didn't want to move, so I was able to get someone else to get security to let the mom know that I had her kid. She came bay five minutes later in told me thanks. Second time kid was lost in a small clothing store and he only spoke Spanish. I was able to help him with my broken Spanish. Two his mom, thankfully
was in the dressing room. I'm hoping it's because I have a friendly face. That's why kids approached me. Y'all have a happy weekend from Alice. How cool is that that you cry lingual? Maybe multi lingual? Wow? Yeah? I don't speak any language well except English, and even that was questionable. You can speak pig Latin pretty well. How does pig Latin go? Again? It's like you, I don't X I don't remember either, on the on the ube something like that. Yeah, okay, promote,
pey is promote? I don't know. I'm reading a pewspaper in front of me again, yep, okay, next one. Dave Jenny Bailey Vant don't say my name is my first time writing. I've been listening over twenty years, and I can't tell you how much you've impacted my life. My mom passed away eleven years ago, so I get lonely. Hearing you all gives me a sense of a friendship and finding situations that I can relate to. Dave your stories of being a dad helped me become a better parent. I
admire you. You're such an amazing person. Thank you Jenny for opening up the other week. I can relate. It's nice knowing you're not alone, and it's okay if you need help. You inspire me. Bailey and Vaunt are wonderful editions. It's my daughter's last day of high school and she wrote this on Friday. I really could use some advice on how to deal with
the emotions. I cry almost every day. Getting photo boards ready really brings up memories and knowing she really is growing up going to college a few hours away. I know she needs to go and I want her to be happy. Also, any grad gift ideas, what does your kids appreciate getting? Thanks so much, love you all, and do you have any staff writer? Stickers would love one. Oh and my kids drink out of the hose too, and so they are from beautiful Kenyan, Minnesota. When Carson was
my last one left for college five years ago, I was crushed. I was just devastated. And then I started to turn it around because when they leave for college, there's still your kid. They really still are your kid. But because they come home, they still want you to make them a grilled cheese sandwich, they still want you to make chocolate chip cookies, they still want to watch TV with you, and they still have their bedroom. They still they are still your kid. So it's not as big of a
shock as you think it's going to be. Plus one thing that really helped me was realizing how excited Carson was, not how sad I was. So once I made it more about him and less about me than I did better And it's not that bad. No, I mean I miss him. I mean right now he's on an airplane back from Soul and I'm always checking up on him. But like, right now, it's not the college vibe anymore, because so you just said, like when they go to college, they're
still your kids. So when does it feel like it's no longer like they're your kid anymore and they're just another adult kind of when they don't need you as much to like make doctor's appointments or to find out how to get their insurance or whatever. Because Carson's figured out how to pretty much live life on his own. Yeah, but it's fine. You know, he's happy. Uh huh. It's kind of like when we were all around that age, we weren't going God, I really miss mom and dad so much. We
were just excited about our independence on our life. Right. Yes, so I was so excited to get out and not have anyone like wondering where I was. Well, my mom was always wondering where it was. But like you know, I had strict curfews in high school. I was so happy to have the freedom I had when I left for college free bird. So yeah, it's not as bad as you think. And it's you keep waiting for that moment where you're so sad that you go lay down in their room
on their bed and cry and hold their pillow. Fuck that. Oh it never really had it? Should that happen? My mom used to do that, really because she missed me so much. She would just sit in my room. Listen, I'm a catch, Okay, my mom loves me. Your mom does love you. I think I think is part of it to do with the fact was your mom single when you left? Yeah, when you left home. Yeah, so then she really was alone. She was alone. See, I still had Susan, and I had Josie and I
had Roger, so I never really felt totally alone. Let me see if I got time for one more and no, that's that's going to be about it. We got a lot of people who were asking for tickets and that type of thing. So, but if you got an email and you want to send us to ask us anything for the Minnesota Goodbye, would love to hear from you. Send your email into Ryan's show at katiewb dot com.
