Could you turn that down little bit? Jenny? Thanks, that's really high Wilder. Hey, it's the Minnesota Goodbye. Got some emails, so it's your one and only fan and Harrison, Montana. A few months ago, I had told my husband that I wanted to plan a trip to Minneapolis, and the look on his face was hilarious. I said that my friends on the Dave Ryan Show just make it seem like such a cool place, and they're always doing cool stuff. He said, how about Florida? Of course
he wont and yes, we're going to Florida in October. But our daughter is going to college and Ohio and I'm driving her over from Montana. I instantly checked our route and couldn't believe my luck that we're driving through Minneapolis. Oh, We're spending Sunday the thirteenth in the area, And of course my
twenty three and eighteen year old couldn't decide what to do. We were going to go with Fallon's recommendation of Mall of America, but I also wanted to find something off the touristy radar, so we are going with Dave's recommendation of can Can Wonderland. Nice. The kids seem more excited about that the Mall of America. My twenty three year old is probably more excited about the beer wall on Mom's tab. But whatever, La. So I'm coming to your
now. So I'm coming to you now to see if you can recommend a good, non touristy restaurant in the area that I shouldn't miss on my one day visit in the area. I'm not asking for Drake's recommendation, because I'm sure I would have plenty of Taco bell the rest of the triplol Is there anything else we can add to our can canned Wonderland? Let me know. I know Dave would recommend the cherry in the spoon. I kid, I kid, I know he thinks it's dumb. Maybe a lake with kayak rentals
or anything, Thank you so much. If you're gonna do a lake with kayak, you want to go to the Chain of Lakes, and you can go. I think the best place to go is to Bidetma. Well, no, I mean, it depends on what you like. So the Chain of Lakes are Bedemcoska, Lake Harriet, and Lake of the Aisles because they're
connected. That's why they call it the Chain of lakes and they're kind of like in a trendier Uptown area, beautiful homes around the lake, but they're calm like, they're not lakes that boats are allowed on, so they're very nice for kayaking or paddle boarding, unless it's super windy it can be a little aggressive. Yeah. Yeah, so I don't think Lake of the Aisles has rentals. I might be wrong. I don't, but Harriet does and Sodas Bede Micosca and either one you go on you could go to the other
one. Yes, you can through that like tunnels. So no, you can't get to Harriet to every any other one, but Bedemcosca you can go. It also connects to Cedar like, but that's like a long channel and kind of like if you're doing a rental, it's not always necessarily worth it to go. But I've done Cedar like as well when I've done rentals. But yes, either one works and that's fun. But like she has for I think we're a restaurant recommendations, she's asked for non touristy restaurant recommendations.
I mean my first thought was Kalita because it's not too expensive. If your kid is excited for fancy beer wall and they are old enough to drink. I think Kalita has like some of the most fun cocktails. But it's expensive, I know, but I'm trying to think like compared to like San Jussan, which is like my favorite Twin Cities restaurant. Oh, I think it's a little cheaper than San Jusan. So Kalita has kind of like Latin flair
food. Would you say, it's kind of like tapas, so it's charable, like where if you ordered tacos, it's two, it's it's it's so good. It's one of It's probably my favorite restaurant in the Twin Cities, one of the top. North Loop has some good things that would be a little bit cheaper, like Red Rabbit, SMA Smackshacks a good one. How they're a handful over there, I mean low. But yeah, I don't I feel that's in this. I don't go to No Lover often that because
it's not good. It's just not my I don't know why. I always go to Smackshack or Red Rabbit if I'm at an area or parlor. They have great cheeseburgers. But I feel like, if you want like kind of that atmosphere, like a restaurant atmosphere. Jenny's right, Khalida is not like downtown Minneapolis though, it's it's South Minneapolis Minneapolis. And then if you're over in that area, there's also like Mister Paul supper Club or I mean, there are a lot. I don't know, there's so many good ones.
I think it's not too uh it's an I always get them confused. Martinez over there too, But those are places you need a reservation for it. And I think you said the thirteenth, which is a Sunday, so just make sure you check ahead of time for sure. Yeah, hope that helps a little bit. And have fun. That's so cool. What a perfect little I mean, yeah, you'll get a little taste of minutes and it must you're coming in the summer. Next email, I thought it might be
a good time to ask Falon about doom Wah. I learned about doom Wah from Falon and following socials, but I don't quite understand is it a person or who is running the site. They have really good insider info, so I'm curious. Thanks Rebecca, my understanding it was a person they started this. I think that they do know, had good sources, new some people like in the industry, and then now they're they've blown up, so now
it's pretty easy to get submissions. I'm going to guess the hardest part for them now is to weed out fake ones because so many submissions come in. But they have a podcast now it's a person as far as I know. Oh, okay, next email, I'm catching up on the show Minnesota Goodbye and have to share a duo monster in law story. But she put Minnesota Goodbyes. That's why I'm doing it on here. For the record, please don't say my name is. I would never want to embarrass anybody, but
figure especially Jenny and Fallon, would get a kick out of this. My boyfriend and I are going to be together forever because our moms are the same kind of crazy. They are wildly inappropriate, invasive, hilarious, and set in their ways. We love them dearly, but have to come to the conclusion that because we both come from mothers like this, nobody else would be okay with what we put up with on a daily faces. A few out
of context examples. His mother has openly told my younger brother twenty four years old that God spend a little extra time on you. Oh my mom has blatantly told him that whoop sees are okay at this point life, I would never be mad about that. This was his first trip with our family, living in the same house for five days in Callie. A year later, these comments still happen. At a dinner with his parents, I ordered a fish on trey fried because it sounded amazing. Dah, I didn't know they
all also ordered fish baked slash broiled. And she looked at my plate, looked me up and down and said, oh, I wore a tank top skirt outfit where the straps tied together on each shoulder for a bow. Look my mom looked him straight in the eyes and said, than of how easy you're night is. Later, just pull those books right. Oh my gosh. The list goes on, but you to make you chuckle. They are the best in the world. And we're so thankful that we both grew up
with his kind of mom. So are with this kind of mom. So it really is out of the ordinary to add one more. It would probably be more uncomfortable to date someone with a normal or proper mom. We figures lool, so love you guys. Have a great day. That's great, Okay, minutes here we go. You talked about intrusive thoughts yesterday and fallon. Yes, I've had those exact same thoughts about driving, and I thought I was crazy and wondered what that meant. I wondered if that meant I
was suicidal, which I'm not, but those thoughts freaked me out. I don't think I have those thoughts before having kids. So thanks for making me feel a little less crazy. Love you. We just talked about intrusive thoughts yesterday if you missed the podcast, and it was kind of like I said that mine seemed to have gotten crazier since I have a kid. Maybe we're
like, you're driving, like what if this? Like what if I drove into the other lane and it's not because you actually are down or feeling that way, which I know some people actually go through that in a real way, but this it's like a weird intrusive thought. So that's what she is talking about. Nick's one. What would Jenny do? They say? Okay, I was just on a flight from Copenhagen to Stockholm, and I kid
you, not the entire flight. The child behind me kept kicking my seat, grinding his shoes under my seat, punching the back of my chair, talking very loudly the entire flight. Luckily it was only a one hour flight, but still, girl, it seemed the mother only spoke Swedish soul language barrier. I'm trying to figure out what to do if this happens again on our flight from Amsterdam back to the US on Saturday and almost ten hour flights.
So I ask, what would the sensible Jenny do. Okay, on the short flight, I would not have done anything, because I know it's short. But on a longer flight, I would turn around and like the nicest way possible and speak to the parent and be like, hey, do you mind like getting your child to stop kicking my seat, like whatever, especially if you're trying to sleep. WI you most likely are on a ten hour flight, and so I would it in like the kindest way possible.
And hopefully, because you're returning to the USA, person will be speaking English. But if there's a language barrier, you might have to get a flight attendant involved. I don't know, I mean, not that the flight attendant who knows what the language they speaked. Yeah, but I would say something in like a very very kind way, like almost like I'm inconveniencing them. Yeah, that's how I would do it. Same. Okay, we have
a couple more, we'll do quickly. I listen to the podcast after the show, so I wasn't able to get on the talk back, but still wanted to share my story of the nicest thing a stranger has done for me. As y'all know, my daughter nickname by Dave Badass, Bella, was diagnosed with leukemia August six, twenty twenty one. Immediately, I began campaigning for blood donations. I sent blood drive information to anyone and everyone and posted
it everywhere I could. As I was at a donation center with another daughter who had donated, the volunteer asked us what made us want to donate. I told her about Bella, and a complete stranger at the table next to us chimed in, saying, oh my gosh, I'm here donating for your blood drive. We talked, and long story short, he was at a meeting at work and his boss shared our story and the blood drive details. It was amazing. Also, we're currently doing a blood drive now for my
birthday and Bella's birthday. It's nationwide throughout the American Red Cross. Anyone can donate, so I think you can look up it says the like the link is like Mama Bear Cinderella Birthday blood Drive. I think you can look that up through Red Cross blood dot org. And the final one. Thanks to everyone for sending these. I want to talk about people on their destination weddings. Some people don't want to spend a lot of money or have a lot
of money to attend your destination wedding. Some don't have the time or want to use their vacation time for your wedding. Some people are saving their vacation time for their own vacation. Love you, but people who do destination weddings are selfish. Instead of doing a destination wedding, save that destination for your honeymoon. I don't want to go to a destination wedding, especially out of the United States. They said, please don't say my name. I mean
it's fair. I think it's fair to if you're like a friend of someone and they're expecting you to come. But like for me, I would be having a destination wedding if I had one, because I don't want a big wedding. I want to just most people people can't come right now. I would never be mad ever, Absolutely not. I mean I would be really sad if like my family, my immediate family couldn't be there, but I would probably pay for them at that point, if like they could not afford
it. Yeah. So yeah, and I think that's fair. I think that a lot of people the issue is being like accepting that some people can't make it. Probably, but yeah, no, good point, and thank you for the emails. You can send those to Ryan Show at katwb dot com. One more day of just me and Jenny tomorrow, Yes,
