6am Hour - Let Me Grab My Bagpipe

Or just checking my son Carson. He's in Germany right now. The David Kushner Show is tonight. They finally got their bags. They flew out of DC. They missed their plane, they missed this plane. They had to make a weird connection. They flew through Frankfurt, Heidelberg, Munich, you name it. They flew and now they're in some little town in Germany

I think so.

I mean it depends on I guess what they do, because do you follow your other kids? Or is it just because Carson's mostly just because Carson is everywhere?

Yeah?

Yeah, I mean I have a cat, and then I have little cameras in my apartment and sometimes I think what is.

He up to? And I just checked in cameras in your apartment?

Yes, And that was one thing that I will take with me from my ex is that he got me these cute little cameras. So I could just like check in and see what my cat is doing, and like, look at him sitting in the window.

Has cap your cat ever done a thing worth the cameras? Because I we got a camera in our place because remember avar dog. She ate our entire couch one day and we let her loose, So now we have the camera because of that.

But what we have kids?

I feel like, yeah at a certain point, but I think I'll stop after a while unless they move away to timbucktoo, like cards, it is right?

What I mean? What if your cat is like what are you? What if you see a chewing up the couch and you're here at work and you're like, what are gonna do? Yell at her?

Ava? That's what Alyssa does because you can yell through the cameras. You can talk to us, do any good.

She'll look around because she'll be like, oh I know that voice, but I she'll just go back to doing what she's doing.

It's so bad, all right? Who's in love? Anybody here in love? Anybody in love? Let's say I'm in love? Okay, six signs? The two people are men for each other and writing this down here we go. You grow together the relationship inspires you to be happier, stronger, and a more authentic version of yourself. You bring out each other's joy, You laugh easily together and make ordinary moments feel special.

I think that's true. If you laughed.

I think it's one of the most important things is if you laugh together. And I think if you make every moment's ordinary moments feel special. Like I had a girlfriend who used to say, I don't care where I go when I'm with you, because wherever you go, you're gonna have a good time. You can go to a wake, you can go to a dump, a landfill, and you'll have a good time together.

And that's kind of rare. Let's have some fun at this wake. Baby. Well, you're gonna have a good time. Anyways.

You communicate easily, conversations feel natural, honest and safe, no fear of judgment, just real connection. I think that's one of the big things about a relationship. If you're out of a relationship, I think one of the things you miss the most is the conversation. Just having somebody to talk to. And they're not going to be like why would you bring that up? Or that offends me. They'll

You have to be genuinely happy for somebody. You can't just be like I'm happy. But you know ye, Like when I Lista won her Emmy, I was like just so so happy. You have no idea. I don't even know how to explain that. But it wasn't like, oh, you got an Emmy and I didn't.

No, I was.

I felt so sincerely happy for her, seeing the hard work it took for.

That, right, So just a little box to some boxes to check. Did you go on a date last night, Bailey?

No?

I was?

I mean I went to a ce a show, but I was with my friend Sarah. When is your next date?

Friday? Friday? To make you guys? Yeah wow. See love is in the air. And this date tomorrow's a follow up with somebody. It's not like a new first date.

No, it's a second date.

I still haven't heard from the Intellectual, which was my Tuesday date.

This is a guy that uses big words unnecessarily.

Yeah, he uses a lot of really big words.

But I have not heard from him, so I assume that one is dead in the water, which is fine. Which is the weird thing about hinge in general is that like if you don't necessarily vibe with someone, instead of telling them, you just ghost. Everybody just ghosts. You just kind of cease to exist because I don't know. It's online dating, so it's kind of like, well it didn't work out. It's I'm gonna pretend you didn't exist in the first place.

Do they think can they still message you and then you just don't or do you block them?

Yeah?

They I mean I still have like all of these like message threads open.

They could message me if they wanted to.

But they don't.

He heard you talking on the radio about him. The intellectual. No, he listens to the MPR.

I feel like you say that about everyone that you go on dates with the but they probably don't listen. But at the same time, everyone has an ego, and if they know that they're dating Bailey from KATIEWB, they're probably going to tune in and listen to the show.

Oh, I don't know.

And there's no way that not at that, at least not one of them have listened.

Yeah, I don't.

I mean, I don't know.

He seem that thrilled that. He was just like cool, tell me more about that. And I would te him about it and he'd be like, that's neat and that's kind of it. So he's definitely an MPR person. Also, I didn't say anything bad about him. I just said he used big words and I liked I thought it was stimulating conversation.

But I don't know if I could do it every day, Well, then what's the other guy?

Average guy?

Average guy? But I like him.

You like average guy the best because you're in average kind of a person. We're all average kind of people. We just have a cool job on the radio, taking a big words. I told you this story before I dated a girl years ago, and she threw out the word ostentatious, but she said ostentageous, and I'm like, it is it ostentageous? And I didn't even know what it meant. She's like, yeah, it's ostentageous. It's very ostentageous. So I looked it up in a dictionary because that was what

Well, they say like posthumorously, and they meant posthumously.

Posthumous, posthumorously. Yes, that's a hard one, tough posthumously.

I struggled saying the other day, all.

Right, we'll be back in a second. Voonster's the pot coming up or of the roses today. Anything you need let us know, maybe get an early suggestion for the single long song of the day, go ahead and text that in and we'll be right back with Vunster in the pot on KD doub bull you beat I'm d B.

Hey.

Just a really quick early morning appeal for Christmas Wish donations. And I was thinking about this earlier. There's so many people I think on Christmas Wish this year they're going to be doing okay, but they can't afford food. I was talking to somebody who said they made a Costco run. They're having a party. They made a cost Co run. They went out and got food. They got some booze for their Christmas party, which is a luxury for a lot of people, and they spent twelve hundred dollars on food.

Could cause they're like, gosh, stop playing it here.

Take that's my idea. Yeah, that's my idea.

They could just shut off the radio time.

And that's another thing. It's like, okay, you know what, fine, I'm going over the current. Screw you guys.

Let's have vont stir the pot, vaunt what is on your mind? Major nerd alert? If you play the bagpipes?

Oh are you? That's it?

That's it?

Yeah, bagpipe players, man, get on up out of here. No, he's cue. He pulls it off. How he's been doing it for forever. But if you're young and you're getting in the bagpipes or like you're I mean, have like a what a quartet of bagpipers? Sorry chief, God forbid, you have a skill vant. I think that is awesome. You know what's funny is when Chase he went to some Irish fair when he was like ten, and he's like.

Dad, I want to learn how to private the bagpipes.

And I'm like, I'm not going to buy you bagpipes as the kid who's taking up every hobby in the world and then dropped it, including the baritone horn and the violin.

Get that, Yeah, I know.

So there's a bagpipe simulator and it's like it is just a flute. You learn how to play the keys on your fingers and then if you like it, then So I bought in the bagpipe simulator for like fifty bucks. He played it for about, I don't know, two weeks or so. Then he left it on his table in his room and he never picked it up again. So but it was cool. I don't I disagree. I think

You are the one person Dave on this planet whose kid has ever asked them for bagpipes.

You might what about accordion? What about if the kids like mom?

What accordians?

I think accordion are dope.

I think accordians are cool, but I think they're cool to play. But again, Nobody is going to ask you to be in their band just because you play the accordion like the bagpipes. Let's just say I played the bagpipes right now. It's pretty proficient in it. I'm not going to go to any pub, any brewery, try to join any band where people are like, oh, yeah, we need.

A bagpiper hired, you'll be very busy on St. Patty's Day exactly.

Like you don't even know, because actually since we've had Bill the bagpiper on, I've had people DM me and be like because of you, guys, I hired Bill for yeah, party whatever.

He's great. Yeah, a skill and a weird instrument. Where you go, you'll be employed for life.

Where do you go for bagpipe lessons? They don't do that. Guitar center, No, they have guitar center.

It's the whole pipe and drum thing.

Because I know the last time Bill was here, bless him, love him he was. He told us about where you could take lessons, and they like the pipe and drum people like give lessons.

I will give Van a little credit, like not many people want to learn to play the bagpipes, but I think that's probably the uniqueness it's kind of like there's different when you go into band. If your kid's in fifth grade band, or you're in fifth grade band or you were, you'll pick one of the big five instruments trumpet, trombone, saxophone, flute, clarinet, oh, and then percussions. So there's six. So other than that, you try to get a kid to play the obo.

But if you learn how to play like the french horn, again, there's since that one is so unique, and bagpipes and whatever, you'll always have a spot like someone will be like, gosh, you know what, I really need a french horn.

It's still the obo, the bassoon.

Those are still more likely to get a people that want people that can teach you to play them in like band in high school or something. There is no teacher in high school in Minnesota that'll that knows how to play the bagpipe. Teachers in Minnesota and you know how to teach the bagpipes. Text call right now six five, one nine nine kdw B. There isn't one.

Oh there is, there probably is.

But you know what hot?

What bagpipe's hot?

So somebody just texted how sick would be if you were at a party and you whipped out your bagpiping skills.

I don't know.

It's kind of like you go up north and you're sitting around the campfire and there's always some yahoo who's like, no, they're gonna pull out in my guitar and we're gonna do a little singaloga.

Well that's cool, but then yes it is.

But then somebody pulls out their bagpipes and they're like, Okay, you might recognize this one, Jenny.

If you were if you were in a group setting and a guy said, hey, can I.

Play you a guitar song? Or hey can I play you a bag pipe song?

Which they don't lie, don't lie?

I would probably pick the bagpipes is.

Such a liar.

You are such a it's so unique.

You are such a liar.

Somebody pulled out a guitar and a bagpipe, you are definitely gonna be like, I think, just to be nice, you're gonna say bagpipes.

People who pull up a guitar and anything like that are just trying to like have their ego, says oh I Okay, maybe we're gonna move on.

We got things to do. We gotta come back in the second with your sing along song of the day. What do you want to sing along with? Say send me a texted kat w B one and we will do the sing along song of the day to get your mood boosted. Coming up in a second on kd double ub Brian.

In the Morning Show on kt w B, here is here is your sing along song of the day.

Thanks for nominating this one. It is from like ninety six or so. Third Eye Blind your sing along song of the day. One on one point three kd WB. Here's the latest craze in wood Bery, Minnesota, or any higher in little suburb you'r chan hassen your Victoria Maple Grove Rogers, you know, kind of like your liel Rogers is. You know it's Rogers, but you know, yeah, Pinky's up. Fancy what these are the latest cul de sac crazes.

They are fun.

They're cheaper than a second car and zipping all around Some neighborhoods. Some days families using golf carts to run for quick errands around town and even for school pickups. Now, naturally it's not come without complaints or injury. Some residents hate them, saying that tread they don't obey traffic laws, and they're unsafe and unregulated because you do not have to have a dry license to ride a golf cart.

Whatever.

So here comes a little Tommy. Tommy gets in mom's golf cart and he's zipping around the corner. It's seventy five miles an hour, falls out and bonks his head and breaks his collar bone. Yeah, so a little Tommy is you know, he's being a little a hole, just like little Tommy has been a little lay hole on his little mini bike in the summertime.

It's been a little a hole.

Yeah, exactly right, sir. I haven't noticed that around my neighborhood no at all. I think that's a weird thing to have in a suburb. My grandparents had a golf cart to like get around the land. But they had a lot of land, so it made sense. Yeah, me and my sister definitely like zipped around in that like pedal to the metal kind of thing in a golf cart.

In a golf cart, it goes like twenty miles an hour.

No, I know someone's that goes fast, though it's.

Like barely fast, maybe fifteen miles an hour.

I know that you whip a super super fast. I don't think I'd ever own a golf cart.

Money could change my mind, but I hope that I at least make enough money in my life where if I wanted to get a golf cart, I could because I know someone that has one, and I was like, damn, this seems epic.

I wish I had enough land to have a gator. A gator is one of those it's like a golf cart, but it's like, you know, more hardcore. Yeah, it's like yeah, it's got like it's got a roll cage on it, and it's got like bigger knobby your tires. I want to have enough land to have a gator some day, Okay, I'd like to buy like a big mountain in Idaho or something like that.

No, Dahod, I'm sorry, stop her stop.

I think I support you in that buying a mountain though, I really like that. Can I come visit?

You may come visit because I'll have a It'll be like the Dutton Ranch. I'll have a big guesthouse, a bunk.

House, and have some hot cowboys and like their own little side thing and we can go sneak in there at night.

And have a walker and drink beer.

One hot drunk girl named Teeter.

Okay, yeah, Teter nice.

You want to do a shot of a shot of waiscate teethes. She's pretty, She's got all over. T was pretty.

She just was very cantry like ridiculously.

Yeah, all right, that is uh. You can't make this stuff up. On KTWB. We're gonna do Dave's dirt in a second coming up on the dirt. We had a lot of things we have to cover, including the government back opening back up again. Hopefully that's going to happen. It looks like they were signing something overnight. That is the last time this item has ever will ever be made in the United States. What am I talking about? The slim gym. Maybe the light bright, maybe this item

Who's been canceled? Have whatever happened to Ashley Parker Rangel? It's Dave's Dirt on kd w B.

Well, the United States Mint has truck the last circulating penny. We've been printing this or making minting this for over a two hundred and thirty two years of penny production, and it is going to save us about fifty six million dollars annually. The Trump administration said it cost too much four cents a penny, and we just don't really have a lot of use for pennies. Nobody carries coins anymore. If you see a penny on the ground, a lot

Seriously, or like tip there's a tip jar everywhere you go nowadays, just throw it in the tip jar or the take.

A penny, leave a penny.

Love that.

I was so annoyed with that anyway, So the pennies will remain legal tender. So if you've got a big Culligan water bottle upside down in your house with a full of pennies, it's still legal, take it down to the bank and donate it or something like that. If you don't need them, then Nina, what go go donate it to Christmas wish. Yeah, turned into cash and donated Christmas wish.

It is crazy because we're living through I mean, the penny isn't going away. We'll still use it. But what if we're alive at one point when they're like, we're not using pennies anymore instead of something costing for twenty seven, they'll just round it.

So yeah, five plan and trust me, they will always round up. They're never gonna round down. Rounded up yep.

So The Golden Basser had the season finale last Sight, and it actually really was super dramatic.

I feel like the host says that every season.

But basically spoiler alert, spoiler alert, Mel, who was a Golden Bachelor, had narrowed it down to two women.

Their names are Peg and Cindy.

But during the fantasy suite Peg and Cindy.

Yeah, I just love it, which is hilarious because my mother's name is Cindy and my alland's name is Peggy.

Whoa.

So the fantasy suite was Cidney turned south, however, and she walked out on him because she said, I don't need to convince the man to love me.

Mel was not in it for a relationship in the way that I was, so that left Pell with Hell.

Mel left Mel with only a peg and they are not engaged, which normally is what happens at the end of these seasons. They're just dating and he gave her a promise ring, and she also told them that she'd require a prenup if they ever were to be engaged to get married. So anyways, I don't know, I'm gonna be honest. I took one look at Mel. The Golden Batch around. I was like, that boy is still getting after it in his sixties, and I doubt he's actually going to marry anyone.

Not getting after it. He's still getting He is hot, he's a good looking man.

Ripped he's sixty two, I think. And yeah, he's ripped.

I heard he goes to Snap Fitness. You know he probably does, Yeah, exactly.

Probably does.

American Public Television and PBS sold three Bob Ross paintings yesterday to auction for an auction to benefit uh those TV stations, and they sold for six hundred thousand dollars, which is a lot. The entire collection is up for auction and is likely, like planned to surpass one point five million dollars that was expected before the bidding even started.

To benefit PBS and American Public Television. I love that kind of nice.

Yeah, this is some local news. The Rojo and Maple Grove.

They were going to turn it into a che cheese because that's what they did with the one here in Saint Louis Park. It's che Cheese now five stars, by the way, but they said, actually, no, we're not going to do that, and after two years they have permanently closed the Roho in Maple Grove, whoa crazy the one in the shops at Arbor's Lakes. So they have no clue what they're going to do with it.

Now.

I don't know why they wouldn't turn into a chechese. I feel like having one here and then went over there.

They also this is I mean not about Chee Cheese or Rojo, but they also closed both Mesa Pizza locations in Minneapolis, and they're just.

That was my entire college life was drunk macaroni and cheese pea.

Yes, it was the best because I used to go there all the time with my very first boyfriend. He'd be like, want to to Mesa Pizza And it was such a novelty.

That I was like, this is it. Wow, this is the place to be.

An they're close.

Both of the does make me very sad.

No, the U of Them campus is just a different campus from when I went fifteen.

Oh it doesn't even look the same, modernized and.

Like there aren't there parts of it where it used to be like kind of sketchy and now it's like, wow, new shiny buildings with like a Panda Express and a Dominoes and a smash Burger it's a ton of different.

Vibe is very different.

Yep.

The President has signed a government funding bill on Wednesday last night, formally ending the forty three day shutdown, the longest in US history. We don't need a lot of details on that one, but it ends the immediate crisis. It only funds the government through January thirtieth, and then we'll start all over again. But the good news is it looks like everybody's coming back to work, including the air traffic controllers. I don't want to speak too soon,

Wow.

Yeah, yeah, So I set this all over my news feed yesterday on Instagram based my newsfeed, my whole my my little feed thing.

Yeah.

But Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter, is now playing Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter on Broadway.

And when he came to the.

Stage, the crowd just like collapsed for like sixty seconds, say forever.

To be honest, it kind of annoyed me.

I just wanted to see him like start acting, and instead they like obviously built that in knowing that he would get this round of applause when he showed up on stage. But I was very curious because I thought maybe he'd be playing the dad at this point, but he's playing Draco. Yes, because it's nineteen years in the future, the show is.

Oh, okay.

I didn't know that part about it because I was like, Okay, he doesn't run look like a young kid anymore.

He's seen some things not to his age.

Yeah, it's a really big deal that he's on and he's the first like actual Harry Potter movie character.

Too be in the show.

Speaking of some cool shows, we've.

Got some teasers for the first trailer for the Super Mario Galaxy movie dropped yesterday, and also the trailer for The Devil Wears Prada two came out yesterday. And I know, Jenny, you probably watched that. I excited for The Devil Wears Prada two. It's just all it is is like walking down a hallway and then walking into an elevator and it.

Turns around and it's Meryl Streep and that's.

Like the whole trailer. But I'm excited regardless, that's a great movie.

Speaking of things to watch, last night, I started the Eddie Murphy dock on Netflix. It's called Being Eddie. I think Eddie Murphy not. I think he is a one

But it's just so epic to see that that's there was nobody like him. I mean it was.

He was young, and he was edgy, and he was so mass appeal. Everybody loved him, from like white kids, the like old ladies. Everybody loved Eddie Murphy because he was just so different. And it's so weird, how like by the late eighties he was already kind of done or at least had backed off, and now he's become reclusive and a little bit weird. But I still think yeah, and his prime he was a genius, just amazing and then maybe not weird, very reclusive. Yeah, just he doesn't

He did a movie. He did a movie called Norbit, Yes, and then he did one great movie.

Well, he also did one called Harlem Knights, and that was his first bomb about nineteen eighty nine or so. Because Harlem Knights was not because he had done remember forty eight hours Beverly Hills Cop and he was huge. And then he lived off of that for a while. Then he did Carlem Knights and that did not go over the way they wanted it to. Harlem Knights. I didn't see Norbid. It is such a hood classic. It's such a hilarious move.

You sit and watch it, all right, maybe I'll watch it.

That's the dirt brought you by six one two injured Heimer and Lamber's injury law. We're gonna talk to somebody in a second who was warned not to do something. They did it anyway. They said her friends and family said don't do this, and she's like, screw you, I'm gonna do it. Anyway, and then she learned she should have listened, and you'll hear her story. And I want to see whether you know somebody or maybe you have the same story. You were warned not to do this,
