Beid Weather in a Christmas Story movie when he sticks his tongue to the pole.

This is what gets it stuck. Have you ever done that? Vunt no notice enough?

Yeah, don't.

We've done it several times being radio DJ as you do goofy stuff like that. I remember when I was a kid, I stuck. There was nobody else home, and I stuck my tongue to the doorknob of my home in Colorado is probably ten years old, and it stuck. I mean it's stuck instantly and fast. And I remember I was like, didn't pull it off, ye, because a lot of kids will pull it off and there's a tongue hanging from gosh. So I kind of just breathed

Yeah, you're supposed to just let your tongue sit there until it warms up and then it just comes right off.

Is that well it?

Yeah, your body heat ends up warming it up over time.

I'm not gonna try it. And then you got to take the hot cup of water outside and throw it in the air and watch it all like freezing crystals. Have you done that one?

Fun?

No?

And I see so many people do it. I'm tempted to. You got to do it.

I was trying.

I have the social media partnership I'm working on and I was trying to do that the other day and it was not cold enough out until the hot water just flung off to me and I was.

Like, ah, degree burn. Yeah, it will be cold enough tonight and through tomorrow. But you know, I think some schools be closed tomorrow. I don't know, We'll see how it goes. I want to run something by you guys, because I've been buying more stuff on the gram.

Of course.

Of course I found something on either Facebook or the g and of course you order it and then you either don't get something. It comes back and it's not what you ordered. Like I ordered you, guys three D Christmas ornaments of headphones, like radio headphones with your name on it. Yeah, it was three D. That means three dimensions, right, that certainly does. I got them. It was not three D.

I mean, I think the silence tells him all this ridiculous.

All this stuff you'll be buying. You can't go to lunch to Betty Hana once. What do you think Carson's fun to do with that coin? Literally, to carry is on a key ring. He's going to carry it in his on his keys and treasure it for the rest of his life, is what he's going to do.

I would say he's probably gonna lose it within a week.

He's not gonna lose it with his key ring.

Okay.

I understand the sentiment behind it, Don't get me wrong.

I think it is very very sweet.

However, it just feels like a really unnecessary material thing that he just doesn't need and he won't appreciate.

Why can't you guys just support what I do once in.

A while, because you know what, you could have done it instead of getting him that coin, instead of wasting your time looking for said coin.

Yeah, you could have just said that to him with you.

I say it all the time. So why is that not enough? You have to spend money on a coin because I wanted to have him carry me in his pocket.

I don't think he's gonna I don't think he's gonna he's gonna see the coin. You're gonna give it to him, and you're gonna like have that little small smile like anybody you like it, and he's gonna go, wow, thanks.

Dad, And then in two weeks you're gonna be like, you like the coin. He's gonna be like, look, oh oh yeah. I'm not sure what your co workers are like, but can you imagine coming into a conference room. You get a meeting, and you get it there a little

We don't know your coworkers, though we are your friends who are going to tell you.

Like it is what it is. It's stupid.

You're silly, stupid, tasted on something that Carson is not going to He will appreciate it in the moment, and then he's going to forget about it, and you'll think about that coin for weeks and you'll be like, oh, this was.

Such a great right.

And Carson is literally going to put it somewhere and he will probably forget about it until he moves and he's like, oh yeah, oh it got me this coin, or.

Oh yeah, what is this?

If you gave me that coin, Dave, I would put it in my pocket with the hole in it.

Okay, can I ask did you spend more than twenty dollars twenty bucks?

Twenty five bucks on run over?

Somebody texted and saying how big is that coin? That's a lot of words.

It's the size of the needy, size of a fifty cent piece or a silver dollar. Okay, it's big and it's not tiny tiny. Carson even know what a fifty percent piece is?

I don't know.

That's not the point. Does Carson know who fifty cent? Don'tkidding?

You don't like some you know, teenagers their phones taken away.

I think we need to take Dave's phone away.

We need to somehow figure out also how to lock him getting any kind of sponsored targeted at anymore, because the man can stop himself, like ooh.

Piece of candy.

Why didn't you get Chase a coin that says I love you?

That's a good question. I mean, I guess I could have gotten someone too, because no, that's not true. All right, moving on, I thought i'd get a little support from you guys.

They're like, yeah, I wrote Yesterday in eight minutes, or I wrote Style in two and a half minutes on the back of a napkin on an airplane, or I wrote you know the climb in my head in the shower. It's like, that's amazing. Oh, whereas most of us and that they always talk about how easy and how it just kind

No, not really.

Yeah, yeah, I could write a song if I had to, just song. The only song I ever wrote was the lyrics to a song. But I did write Wet like the Rain. I did write the melody to that one, and it came to me in the shower exactly that one.

You also wrote people loved, I mean, found performed it when, But when you wrote.

P to Taylor swift me.

Do you see the difference?

I was gonna say, I watched Free Solo like a couple of weeks ago. It is he's there's something a little off in his head.

In my opinion, he's on the spectrum onnoit well a little bit.

Yeah, But it's not that it's I mean, maybe that's what it is, but it's the fact that like he doesn't find pleasure in any like normal things that other people do. Yeah, he has to chase that adrenaline and

With the sixty seven Okay, Bailey, Oh no, knowing my mother, I'm gonna say fifty eighth.

Okay, fun yeah, roun Bailey, I'm just say like fifty four. They say sixty five, if you're over sixty five, you should not be shoveling snow, but other studies say forty five is the safest cutoff. Wow, I think it depends

Over there?

They say that eighty five percent of people over fifty have some gunk built up and their arteries are gonna die soon. I exaggerated a little bit. They say, yeah, all right, at a risk of coronary artery disease. But if you can't have somebody else shovel and you need to dig out. Here some helpful tips from the American Heart Association. Right game here we go, Start gradually and pace yourself. Dress warmly, cover your mouth and nose, and

Yeah.

Oh, you just to make it more fun. Thanks for playing a long bailey.

Yuh?

Push or sweep the snow rather than lifting or throwing it. Be careful when the wind is blowing, because wind chill increases the effect of the cold on your body. And if possible, there's a no brainer. If possible, use a snowblower.

Yeah right, I feel like your snowblower. Tell me this is accurate. Yeah, your snowblower works half.

Of the time.

It starts half the time. Yet, okay, right, is that what you mean?

Yeah?

Exactly, Because it always seems like every time I know someone who has a snowblower, the snowblower doesn't actually work most of the time.

So what's the point of having it?

Well, because when it does work, it's glorious, right, it's a great thing. Yet it's in my book. I wrote a book years ago called take a shower, show up on time, and don't Steal Anything, And one of the chapters, their tiny Little chapters is shovel an old person's driveway. So if you live and I don't know, Saint Louis Park and there's a lot of old retired people around, and you see Bruce and his wife Connie outside trying

I live in Saint Louis Park and I have an older neighbor, Tom, he's probably in his eighties.

He does mine for me.

Wow.

He is a snowblower.

So a lot of times he'll do like my front sidewalk, not the sidewalk that walks up to my door, yeah, but the one that like pedestrians walk on and they nice.

He'll do that one for me.

I'm very grateful for because I am in a lot of pain lately, so it's hard for me. But I did get out in trouble last night because I didn't want to deal with it today.

Right, smart smart movie.
