All right, it's the Minnesota goodbye. And the reason I'm starting with some anger in my voice is because I kind of just pulled the Dave Ryan. I didn't have Drake's microphone on, so there's that speak for me, boy working sure is okay. We only got about three and a half minutes in before I realized it, so thank goodness. But now I got to go back to this email I just deleted that we already read, so hold,
please, hold please? Where is she? Did I even there? It goes okay, it's a wisdom tooth email, and I asked Rake if he's okay listening to it, and he said he is, all right, good morning, Dave Ryan Crew. I just listened to the part on the podcast the other day when Drake was talking about needing his wisdom teeth out. I kept hearing everyone say, don't worry, you won't remember it. While I was fully conscious during my procedure, I was numbed. But they didn't even
mention anything on anything to me about laughing gas. I knew what they were doing. I felt a lot of pressure, but that was it. I'm guessing they didn't even think about it because I have my tongue split in two. So maybe they thought I could just handle it anyway. It's not that bad break, and it's totally worth it. You're gonna be fine, says Kristen. So God. Yeah. So she wasn't. She wasn't down under anything like that. No, she was numbed, but she was aware of
what was going on, and she said she could feel some pressure. I kind of I wouldn't be able to do that. I would have to be knocked out. If I've got people like digging in my mouth, digging in my gums and I can open my eyes and see them doing that, I would probably freak out. Yeah. I don't think I'd be able to do that at all. I think most people get put under. I was.
I was, even though I claimed I wasn't, Like, I feel like I was probably having like lucid dreams about it or something, because when I was fully like come to, I was like, oh, I was awake the whole time. They're like, no, you weren't. Your eyes were shut, you were like non communicative, like you were passed out. I'm like, okay, whatever, what's it like? Get like going under?
Do you just like just black out? They count down and it's like, all right, countdown from ten and then you buy seven, you're knocked out. You. I mean, when I got my wrist surgery done, I was like, man, I do not feel like I'm about to be knocked out at all. And I was like feeling. I was asking them what I was supposed to be feeling, because they it was like a whole nerve block thing that they had to do for my rest surgery, and I'm just
like, They're like, they did a couple different things. They're like, well, you should be feeling this and this and that, and I'm like, I don't feel any of that. And I was like, what should I be feeling. They're like, well, you should be feeling kind of drunk almost right now, and I go no. I was like, is
this my years of alcohol intake that it's making my tolerance to high? And so we so they had done all that in one room and then they're rolling me on a little cart okay, not a cart, but a bed to the surgery room and I'm still like, well, I wasn't supposed to be passed so quite yet, but I was supposed to be feeling a little like loosey goosey and I get in there, and then I was like, I
don't feel what you guys are telling me. I'm supposed to be feeling, just a heads up, and they're like, okay, okay, and so then I think they had to give me more anesthesia. And then I was, no, I'm gonna refrain from saying this because I don't want to scare anyone. It wasn't scary, but I don't want to say anything that would like get in people's heads. But I had more anesthesia than the next thing I know, I was waking up and the surgery was done. Like I
was like just I don't remember counting down. I just remember them pumping some more in a sson to me and that was done of it. So just like it was like you close your eyes and you just woke up literally, and I mean the surgery was like a couple hours, well probably like an hour and a half or two hour surgery. So that's what I wanted to be. I wanted to be just like like literally I blink and then I wake up and I'm out, yeah, that's what it'll be. Trust me,
You're gonna be fine. Kristen was awake for hers and she was perfectly fine. So all right, let's get into some more emails here. This one says, good morning, Jenny in the morning zoo. Not sure if the person who was looking for an airbnb in the Minneapolis area found one, but I just want to say I do have an airbnb right outside the city and Fridley. It's called the Mpls Marvel on Airbnb. Is so search Mpls Marvel on Airbnb or kind of look at the friendly area and you should be
able to find it. And they said that it's located in a quiet neighborhood close to six ninety four and ninety four can get you downtown super quick on ubers. You could take University Avenue all the way into the city. And also the house is walking distance to the light rail, which also gets you downtown for very cheap. And they say they're five star rated, four bed, two bath, superhosts, so if you're if they're not booked, definitely
check them out. This comes from Colt. I can't really share the link because it's kind of a random link, so just look on Airbnb for that one. I had. So my friends that came here on New Year's came here and they stayed in a five bedroom Airbnb. I think it was in I don't know, somewhere in North Minneapolis somewhere, but it was a five bedroom. Okay. I didn't have a lot of pictures, which they said was kind of a red flag, but like from the pictures that they did
have, it just looked good. Anyways, Okay, they got there. It was one master bedroom mm hmmm, in four kid bedroom, so meaning they had I mean red legs about the pictures. First off, yes, yeah, but okay, keep going. So but it said five bedrooms, so they were assuming five. I mean they can like probably get money back for that. Then I don't know what they did, but yeah, they got there. There was like a really small bunk bed. Yeah, that
would been like a five year old. All the other bedrooms had like really really small beds where their legs were hanging over the edge. Right. It was so bad. Yeah, yeah they were. They were little Airbnb horror story. Oh my god, could you imagine? I No, I can't. But I also am such an extreme planner that if I wouldn't have seen the pictures, I would have been emailing and been like, hey, I don't see pictures about these other rooms, Like can I do you have other
pictures you can share, because that's who I am. Like when I plan group trips, I planted according to how many couples, how many singles are in the group, and I plan according to how many beds are because I'm at an age like your age, I could have slept on a floor on a cement basement. Okay, maybe not at your age, but when I was twenty, that's what I was doing. Like I will never forget being at a party near my hometown and the only option was like somebody's basement.
After we like had had our DD, get us back to someone's home, and I slept on a cement floor. So I used to not care, but at this age, I'm like, I want everyone to be comfortable. We all are gonna have back problems if we don't have a comfy bed to sleep in. You know what I'm saying, Like, I'm not trying to
sleep on a couch all week. So I planned group trips according to, like what would be comfortable for sharing beds if people have to share beds, if there's like single beds stuff, And most of the group trips are like ski trips I plan. So that's why like I had the experience with that kind of stuff. But man, I hope your friends like complain because they can't. That's like illegal to put on Airbnb that you're a five bedroom. If it was one bedroom and a bunch of bunk beds, that's not okay.
I'm sure they did something. Yeah, it's super illegal in real estate terms also to do that. Just heads up, if you show if you show up at a house that's listed on whatever website you're looking Zilow, a Diner, Realty, whatever, and it says it's like three bedrooms, two bath or something, and you come in and one bedroom is like in the basement and doesn't have an egress window. But they're like, oh, it's
a three bedroom. That's technically not a three bedroom there, So you can, like, I don't know if it's illegal, but you can follow a complaint against the real estate agent who like wasn't honest with you. Lots of random crap like that I know from obviously dating a realtor. Cool. Okay, let's see what do we got next. Hi, David, Jenny and Drake. Please don't say my name. First off, you guys are awesome. The Minnesota Goodbye is my favorite podcast. I never miss the day and
I'm always listening to the show podcast from the morning. We appreciate you for doing that. Thank you so much for listening. Because I have a question specifically for Jenny. I've recently wanted to take a trip, either road trip or fly not sure yet, but I wanted to know if you had any tips or how you go about planning your trips. How do you make your
itinerary, figure out your lodging, transportation, et cetera. I'm so jealous of your recent trip to Tahiti, and I think it's time start taking trips like that as well. Okay, so a lot of my planning it's aggressive. I will say I have an aggressive, aggressive way of planning each trip. But usually obviously I start off with booking flights, monitoring flights for a while, hoping that they'll get cheaper. Most of the time, when you
first start looking, that's the cheapest they'll ever be. So I would with travel nowadays, I would say book your flights as fast as you can because it's probably the cheapest that it'll ever be. But outside of that, what I'm my biggest tips is if you are searching for an Airbnb, a vrbo or anything, and it says that it's hosted by Skyrun. By Skyrun, So that is a business name that is not a person that is not Bob down the street who owns a local Airbnb. Okay, that's a business name.
And what you can do is you can try to search that name into just Google search skyrun. It'll probably pop up as vacation rentals. Book through the vacation rent site. It will be cheaper than Airbnb, not that much. But the two places I just booked for a ski trip Andrew and I are doing at the end of March, I booked them both through the vacation rental site, but I found them on Airbnb first, and I think I sold that I saved us a total of probably like three hundred to four hundred
dollars by booking through those sites. So that's a fun little tip for you. Also, one of the main things that I think is important about a trip, and you did ask about road trips, so this is a little bit different, but I think like researching where is the best place to stay is very important because that could save you so much money between ubers getting places or renting a car, if you book in the perfect spot, you're going to save a lot of money. And I know you didn't really necessarily ask
about saving money tips, but these are just things that helped me. So, Like in Tahiti, one of the islands we stayed on was right in front of the main excursion, the sting ray and Shark excursion, and they had kayaks. So instead of us having to book an excursion pay an extra one hundred and fifty dollars a person, we literally took the kayaks out and
did our own little excursion ourselves. Now that might scare some people to do a sting ray and shark excursion on their own without a guide with them. It was really sketchy to us at first, and once we got in the road or we were like whatever, stingrays are like puppies, They're not really that scary. So there's a lot that goes into it. But I will say, if you want to follow me on Instagram at Johnny KATWB, I'll be like announcing something in the next month or two that might help you with
some of this stuff. So I'm not gonna get ahead of myself, but if you want to follow me Johnny katw Bey on Instagram. Yeah, you can look out for that if you want to ask any other more specific questions. I don't want to take up, you know, twenty minutes on the podcast talking about trip planning because I could if not like longer, keeping us on the edge of our see. Yeah, I want to get to do baby, yeah sol is, but nothing showing upsolutely. Yeah, I know.
I asked Drake yesterday. So we check in every night on something called Chatter and just talk about like what we did for the day whatever. It's a thirty or something, And I see Drake, He's like, yeah, not much for me today. I just streamed. He's like, I haven't even started packing for my trip tomorrow. Drake leaves immediately after the show, Okay, Like there's no breathing room, Like he needs to be his ask
needs to be sprinting out of here immediately to catch his plane. So I'm like, Drake, God, even I'm still not even like one hundred percent finished. Oh my god. I mean you're going to a wedding and you're going to Florida. Yeah, and you're not like me, who wants like
the perfect outfit for everything. At least I assume I don't know. Maybe you are well, but really I take a long time to pack because I do want to make sure I have like the exact outfits I want for everywhere I'm going, and then a little bit of extra if I have the extra packing space. So I take quite the quite the time to pack. I never check a bag, so anything I can fit inside, like a carry on, that's what I bringk What do you flying today? I'm doing Spirit
today to Atlanta, but I'm flying back. Look, I'm just like, we love Spirit Honestly, I usually honestly, I really don't like doing it. I usually do sun Country, but Sun Country doesn't go to Atlanta. Weird. That's super weird. I know it's interesting because obviously MP or MSP
is a pretty big hub, but like it is, it's frustrating. I mean, I'm going to Savannah a couple of weeks for a bachelor party and I'm super bummed because it's not a direct flight, and that is just like, it's so frustrating to fly within the country and not have a direct flight. I have to go to Detroit today, soroit to Oh it's connecting. I know, it's so annoying. Well, you'll be fine. I mean,
are you doing a carry on? Yeah, bringing, but you have to pay for that on Spirit. I know, yeah, it was only whatever what I used to fly, Like, I fly a lot random airlines. Whatever is cheapest usually, but I do have a Delta American Express card now, so I do try to fly Delta, And honestly, that's like another travel tip is like sometimes it's still cheaper to fly airlines like Delta versus
Spirit because you pay the baggage fee, you pay the seat fees. And also there are certain airlines and I don't know which ones they are, but you can buy pass having to pick a seat and pay the extra seven dollars. And I didn't know that because I think it's Sun Country where like my friends were like, oh, I didn't pay that extra money and I was like, there's not an option. They're like, yeah, there is. Like I learned that a couple of years ago, that you can bypass picking
a seat and paying the money. They just then you know you're probably getting the middle seat because that's where you're getting put. But if you want to save the fifteen bucks, then whatever, Spirit is a scam, yeah, because I'm flying Delta back because I'm flying back from Tampa, right, so then you get a carry on for free. The flight in general though, was like the way cheaper than Spirit to that because Spirit you have to pay
for the seat and you get to pay for the carry on. And for some reason the flight was more expensive, probably because it's a connecting flight. And I was like, dude, it's like one hundred dollars cheaper to fly on Delta coming back. Yeah, flying to Spirit to Atlanta. I'm like, how does it make it make sense? I mean, it's also because MSP is a huge Delta hub, so there's a lot more options with Delta. A lot of times from certain destinations, Delta flight from MSP to Atlanta
was like four hundred dollars. I'm like, what are you talking about? And that was one way, one way. Yeah, I'm like what Yeah, I mean, you know, Drake, you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes because I have been there, and trust me, I think the last time I flew Spirit, my flight was oh, I don't want to bring the bad juju into the room. But it was delayed for like two and a half hours. It's not going to be there's no weather, like, I don't I don't know why it was delayed back then because er out
there. Yeah, it was like October, so it's not like it was snowing. Well, it could have been snowing in October, but it wasn't. But I mean, I literally used to fly Spirit all the time. Like I said, it's just helpful now because I do get points with my Delta card, and a lot of times when you do the math and the end, you might be paying a little bit extra for Delta versus some of
the other airlines. But I don't know. I value like I value the fact that I can get points from it, and then it makes other future flights cheaper. So that's another travel tip. I never used to be a credit card person because I just didn't like the thought of having credit cards, and then I realized how much I was missing out on things like travel points. So definitely consider some travel credit cards. I think Andrew has I think Chase Sapphire, I want to say, and that works good. He doesn't
have a really fancy one. So if that's a fancy one, that's not it. But it's maybe it's not Sapphire. Maybe it's like I don't know, if Freedom Unlimited, Yeah, something like that. But all right, well that's the podcast for today. Feel free to send some emails I have someone. Some of these are saved because it's specifically asked for some advice from day. Ever want to say things to Dave, So if we haven't gotten to yours in the last couple of days, Dave should try to get to
them on Monday or Tuesday next week. So thank you so much for listening, and send your emails to ryanshow at KDWB dot com.
