Tracey Chapman Made Pike Cry · Podcast - Big 98.7

0:00
I know this is becoming a bit of a trend. On the program here
0:02
Amanda, where Pike shares a story about how he cried during something that probably,
0:07
you know, your typical man wouldn't cry. Hey, you know what,
0:10
I'm really liking that you're embracing your emotions in twenty twenty four. I'm
0:13
not afraid to say it when I say I'm crying at these things, like
0:17
whether it be a football game or a concert or in this case, watching
0:20
the Grammys last night. What it's not me sobbing? It's not boo.
0:25
My wife's holding me. You know what I mean? I mean that would
0:28
be precious if you had to like nuzzle into your wife and she's like,
0:31
it's okay, Pike, Well okay. I mean the last one we talked
0:34
about was me crying during that tsunami movie. I mean that was borderline a
0:38
sob okay. But this one though last night, and I was very excited
0:42
rarely, like we just talked about a bit ago. Do we get hyped
0:44
up for these award shows anymore? Because there's just so many and they're just
0:47
bad. Yeah, they're all terrible. But Friday, when we got to
0:52
where that Tracy Chapman would be joining Luke Comb's for a fast car. I
0:55
was like, Okay, now you've got daddy's attention. So I did not
0:58
know that my husband did because my husband, much like Luke Combs, grew
1:03
up just jamming. Like when we first got together. Yeah, Nick would
1:07
turn this on on the pontoon and like sing this song as loud as a
1:11
can, like if there's a KARAOKEI or something like that, Like he is
1:14
going to town on this. It's fair five minutes of it. Yeah.
1:17
So when Luke Combs revived it, I guess that it depends on how you
1:22
feel about it. Some people are like he destroyed it because Tracy Chapman is
1:26
still alive and can rock it. Well, he didn't destroy I mean he
1:27
did it almost to a te how the original is. It's not like he
1:30
made this new version of it. But he was so jacked. Yeah.
1:34
So Jayeh, it's super cool to hear it. But you know, for
1:36
a lot of people that song in the nineties, I know, it was
1:38
weird to hear that it was released in eighty eight, you know, making
1:42
it in it it feels like a nineties song, But obviously it was still
1:45
very popular. Throughout the nineties, So I remember it were you as a
1:48
child, like in my mom's car listening to Big ninety eight point seven growing
1:52
up, and that's off, that's that's a little off. We uh,
1:55
we'ren't established then, Pike, And you know, even like in college,
1:59
that like was for some reason a party song, probably like your husband,
2:01
Like just I remember the early twenties downtown after a night at the ob going
2:07
back to the apartment and just everyone's screaming along the fast was long time as
2:12
weird as that is, but that song would come on and you it was
2:14
an acoustic jam sash with people absolutely, so I mean, if you didn't
2:17
hear it, it was pretty awesome. Tracy Chapman came out and kind of
2:20
started the song, and she did most of the singing. They came together
2:23
in the chorus and just sounded great together. And we're laying there, man,
2:35
and I don't know, you know, it's just the nostalgia hitting me,
2:37
or just the fact that Tracy Chapman gave us this like incredible gift all
2:40
the way back then and we really haven't seen or heard from her since,
2:44
and for her to get that moment in front of the world. I just
2:46
started just start streaming them. Did you Chris the old wet cheeks? Really?
2:52
I did the oh my gosh wet cheeks in college. That's besides the
2:55
point. Why are we calling you Pike when we could be calling you cheeks
3:00
in the morning cheeks. Uh. We did not cry, I will tell
3:04
you that, but there there was a lot of oh my gosh, this
3:07
is fantastic. You guys have souls. We have I feel like we do.
3:10
Oh yeah, I don't know, I know. It was just it
3:13
was very cool. So I didn't cry at any other parts. Although Taylor
3:15
Swipt announcing a new album was emotional, the amount of people that are grown
3:21
women and adults that were saying that they died they couldn't believe it. They're
3:24
shook. They might not have even went to work today because they were so
3:29
shocked by this news is hilarious to me. And trust me, we've talked
3:32
about this time and time again, ad nauseum. I love I love Taylor.
3:38
She's great. Nothing against her, but honestly, I'm annoy like,
3:40
I'm like, I okay, like great. Whatever her views was, it
3:45
just HiT's so over the top. And then she goes and does this.
3:49
My mind was truly blown. Well I love it. Oh yeah, you
3:52
want to hear what she said? Yeah, here's what she said. I
3:53
want to say thank you to the fans by telling you a secret that I've
4:00
been keeping from you for the last two years, which is that my brand
4:08
new album comes out April nineteenth. Is not the what it's called the Torture
4:15
Poets Department. I'm gonna go and post the it was. It's just crazy
4:21
because you released what Midnight's the one that she was up there accepting the ard
4:25
for. Was that a year ago? And then before the during COVID she
4:28
had those two albums in the same year, So it'd be one thing I
4:30
had been like, you know, she'd been on this hiatus, but it
4:33
quite the opposite. And you know what, I will be honest, I
4:35
got a little annoyed of Taylor, which is weird because I do love her.
4:39
I don't get annoyed of all this, like you know, the Dad's
4:41
Brads and Chadster growing up. Do I actively listen to her albums anymore?
4:46
No, I kinda stopped doing that a long time ago. You know,
4:48
I'm not gonna listen to every track or whatever. But when she was up
4:51
there singing during the fastcar performance. She was the only one standing. Oh
4:56
she was not. They just panned to her and made it look like she
4:59
was the only one. Do you feeling part of me? And I know
5:01
this is wrong. I'm sure she genuinely was just being supported, but it
5:04
was a real like do you need to always have it be the look at
5:09
me? Because she knows she's on camera. My husband said the same thing.
5:13
Just sit down? He seriously, he actually said out loud, and
5:15
I'm not kidding. He goes, why is she doing that? Just sit?
5:19
Not to mention what about the person behind you? Yeah, that's not
5:23
a short person. And as a short guy, it's just like, come
5:26
on now, we're all street. It wouldn't be great because I think she
5:28
was in here. If somebody was like, hey, daday down in front
5:31
place, I would love a photo just the back of the tailor that great
5:34
view for the Tracy Chairman performance like a minute in the morning, Big Natty
5:38
eight point seven. What do you think the sexiest accent is other than whatever
5:42
mine is? The American English Midwest Midwest Ufeda bike. You're looking good today?
5:47
Oh gosh, you'll look good. I don't even know what my own
5:50
accent. Oh for cute. But there was a survey done to find the
5:53
sexiest accents globally. Okay, so I have to say for a man Australian
5:59
accent, that's do you say that, Amanda? Because that would be the
6:00
number three sexiest accent for a man. Really, according to this new study,
6:04
there were six thousand people. And just for reference, I was able
6:08
to get an Australian guy to recite a phrase for us Keith Urban. I'm
6:12
not going to reveal his identity. Paul from Awesome Asus. His name's Nigel
6:16
Old call it buddy of mine anyway, So I had him read just around.
6:19
I said, hey, just come up with a random phrase about Amanda
6:21
and then I'll have it over the air. Am I going to be able
6:24
to handle it? Well? I will see. That's what I want to
6:26
find out. Okay. So here's this guy, Nigel, Australian dude.
6:29
Well, hello, Amanda, you have an absolutely breathtaking rear end. I'd
6:32
like to give you a kiss, if that's all right with you. Oh,
6:34
come on, Nigel, What the heck? Nigel didn't give me enough
6:38
Australian. That's so creepy that was. I'm not crying of that guy anymore.
6:42
But also Pike, that wasn't Australian enough. He didn't really hang on
6:45
to that. Amanda, Okay, that was a little Spanish. See you're
6:49
not the I am terrible with accents, but for ladies, I think a
6:54
Spanish accent is super attractive, like that Sophia Vergara kind of vibe. Mm
6:58
hmm yeah. More of a Middle Eastern guy? What's that? Well?
7:02
What is Middle Give me the ac Sorry, I can't help you. Well,
7:05
I'm not going to do the accent. So you got the globe right,
7:10
you can earth very well aware of like where the Middle East is and
7:14
all of that. But when it comes to accents, I'm trying to figure
7:15
out, like decipher which one is what that would say? Well, number
7:19
two, believe it or not, was German? A German accent? Well
7:21
that feels a little harsh. Did I tell you that I went to college
7:25
with a German guy? Really? Yeah? Yeah, his name Spen And
7:28
actually this I got him to record the same piece of audio. I just
7:30
said, hey, like, come up with a phrase just so we have
7:32
it. Come to me, Spen, let's see what you had to say.
7:34
Well, Hello, Amanda. You have an absolutely breathtaking Rea d I'd
7:40
like to give you a kiss, if that's all right with you. Was
7:44
that German enough for you? Also? Very creepy, very creepy, But
7:46
no, Ben did it for me over Nigel. I usually like the Australian
7:50
accent, but Spen, I was thinking German was more. Is it Dutch?
7:55
That's like more harsh, like like you're just angry when you're talking,
7:58
you're like growling. I don't know, like the German thing. And I
8:01
don't know if this is fair, but I've just only mostly seen movies with
8:03
German guys and they're almost always Nazi soldiers, so you know, I sort
8:09
of associated with that. Okay, so that's still not number one. No
8:11
number one. To take a whack of all the countries in the world excluding
8:15
the Middle East, which we've made a clear derea, you gotta be the
8:18
Canadian accent, Northern Canadian. No, actually no, it was Italian.
8:24
Oh Sasi's accent you want to hear. Actually went to not college, but
8:26
I worked with the guy out of college who's Italian. Oh yeah, what's
8:30
his name? I forget his name. We weren't that close, but I
8:33
was able to get hold of him to record some audio just so we had
8:37
for the show anyway. So there's my friend. I still don't know his
8:39
name, but Italian accent nonetheless, Well in lu Amanda, you have an
8:43
absolutely breathtaking and elate to give you a kiss, if that's all right we
8:48
do. These guys are all very forward, you know. Are glad I
8:54
don't associate with him anymore? So are you on board of the Italian accent?
8:56
What's the worst? What's what's the lea sect? See accent? See?
9:00
I've always thought the Midwest accent. When I went to college in Colorado,
9:03
people would make so much fun of me about because you don't realize what
9:07
we say until you're put in a different situation. Did you when you were
9:11
in Florida for a hot minute? Yeah, people that were making fun of
9:13
you. It's absolutely roasted me when I would say it beg Yeah, that
9:16
was the worst one. People just on the floor laughing, and I just
9:18
literally don't know what they're they're laughing about because it's so normal to us.
9:22
It's easy on our ears here, but when you go to a different place,
9:26
that stands out mind blowing. I was a fairy self conscious, so
9:28
I would try to adjust how I talk, which don't change who you are
9:31
kids, absolutely not for nobody, no matter what. But then when I
9:33
came back here, it was like really refreshing because I could just really let
9:37
it loose. I'd be like, oh, don't you know the hot dishes
9:41
piping hot all for just embrace it and you can really just be you.
9:46
And that's what I wanted to have the lesson be here for this conversation,
9:48
just be you. I don't know, I'm just kind of disappointed in Nigel.
9:52
I love it too because I love an Australian accent. I don't remember
9:56
it being so creepy, but taken a minute in the morning, seven,
10:03
is it weird? You know the deal? Ladies? First, the San
10:07
Francisco forty nine ers are going to the Super Bowl? Okay, correct know
10:09
this? Got it? Hate it and don't even want to talk about it
10:13
out of nowhere. I don't even know how I got brought up and I
10:15
was like the forty nine ers that didn't understand that there was a miners or
10:20
yeah, I didn't know anything about the forty nine ers. Well, I
10:24
gat no worry to me that at no point in your life because they've been
10:26
a team since you beginning of your life. I mean absolutely, at no
10:30
point you would because you know, there's a lot of NFL teams that are
10:31
like the Falcons and the Eagles. It's like, okay, what those are
10:35
birds? I know what a lion is. I even know what a Viking
10:39
packers Packers, that's another one that you probably don't know what that is.
10:41
But let's go back to take nine Packing company. Literally, yeah, that's
10:46
how I started. I was a meat packing company. Was basically a club
10:48
team. No that turned into an NFL team. Yeah, I had no
10:50
idea would sit out. I'll tell you the whole Packers history with the interest.
10:54
You're so interestingly good. I got parents right now. Somehow we'd bring
10:58
the up in this. That was really my whole point. But yeah,
11:01
the forty nine ers had no idea. So yeah, you never you never
11:05
thought about the fact that it's a number, not a clue. I mean
11:07
that's all I know about it. But I'm gonna go weird, weird that
11:11
you just well, you know me, I'm curious like a cat. Yeah,
11:13
so you got to start asking these questions. Of course, Like it
11:16
took me this long in my life after I'm a football fan. Yeah,
11:20
that I questioned it. Now that they're in the super Bowl talking about I'm
11:22
like, oh the forty nine ers, Like, gee, golly, g
11:26
what do you think that's about? Is it weird that I don't find shows
11:31
interesting unless there's like murders or you know, because so, for example,
11:35
we're watching the show on Hulu called The Bear, which is Jeremy Allen White
11:41
from Shameless. Yes, it's just like critically acclaimed show. I think it
11:45
does a ninety nine percent on Ron Tomatoes. I watched five minutes of it
11:48
and I couldn't get into it. Let me guess from the five minutes you
11:50
got about as much out of it as I did watching the whole first season,
11:54
which is they own a restaurant and that's it. Okay, so where
12:00
does it go? Literally now it's getting a little more interesting, like at
12:03
the end of season two. And thank god you can binge it, because
12:05
if I had to draw this out over two years of my life, I
12:09
would be very frustrated. And I know it's like all the Oscar winning movies,
12:13
all of them I just find so uninteresting. You know. Is it
12:15
weird or am I just a big dumb dumb no. See, you and
12:18
I are the same on this. I don't think that's weird at all,
12:20
Like you need to get my attention because I have a short attention span.
12:24
Succession, everybody said it's so great. We kept watching and watching and watching,
12:28
and you're just waiting for somebody to die. I think we made it
12:31
to season three and I'm going do like Ozark, that was one, it
12:37
got you instantly, a million little things, Like there's a few of them
12:39
that like get you right away. Yeah, there's it's just just so many
12:43
shows out there, so really, I don't like, if you're not gonna
12:45
get me right away, then I'm gonna move on to the next thing.
12:46
And I get that there's great acting and it's you know, it's probably a
12:50
lot deeper of a meaning than I you know, as I'm sitting there on
12:52
my phone not even watching, like I'm probably missing some things, but I'm
12:56
sorry. Like it's like when we used to watch The Handmaid's Tale. You
13:00
ever watch that show? I didn't. Isn't that really kind of creepy?
13:01
Yeah, it's creepy. It's good, But I would always just tell my
13:05
wife Laura, because I go to the get up and go to the bathroom.
13:07
When she beg you want me to posit, I'm like, eh,
13:07
positive if somebody's getting hung. Oh my gosh. So you really do like
13:13
the gore of it all. I'm not saying I love it. I don't
13:16
love a good hanging by any means, but you kind of threw it out
13:18
there. That's what you're here for. I can miss the other stuff,
13:22
but the hanging. I'd like to be here for Amanda in the morning on
13:26
stage seven. I know Amanda Stills the sea looks see brought to buy Valley
13:33
Service Mechanical. I'll admit I'm not an award show person. I wanted to
13:37
tune in for the Grammys. I actually had no idea that Tracy Chapman and
13:41
Luke Colmbs we're gonna be I miss that that she was going to be on
13:45
stage with her. Well, you weren't here Friday. James is feeling it
13:46
and we trust me, we had a cover, we had a lockdown,
13:50
we had all that information. In fact, we might have broke the news
13:52
probably And I was super excited when I heard them on stage last night.
13:56
You just got the goosies. I wasn't quite like you, Pike, I
13:58
know that it was was emotional, like a real tear jerker for you.
14:03
The wet cheeks. Yeah, anyway, they sounded great in the internet going
14:15
wild like I felt like, Okay, that's the highlight for the Grammys,
14:18
you know what I mean. We knew Taylor Swift was gonna win a Grammy,
14:20
but we're like, okay. Well, before the Grammys started, there
14:24
was a lot of swifties that with what Taylor Swift was wearing. She was
14:26
wearing all white with these black gloves. And then did you see her necklace?
14:31
She had a necklace that had a clock on It was like a watch
14:33
necklace and it was clicked to midnight. So people thought reputation Taylor's version,
14:39
She's gonna announce it, it's happening tonight. That was their whole thing.
14:43
I didn't really get with the midnight situation, but that was their vision.
14:46
What could it have meant midnight tonight where Robin Duncan's choy chest a home alone
14:52
two reference. Gosh, couldn't that be what it meant? Pike? That
14:56
didn't cross my mind at all last night, But neither did this when she
15:00
got on stage winning her thirteenth Grammy and dropped this bomb Midnight Tonight. We're
15:05
robbing. No, I'm just kidding. Here's the audio. I want to
15:07
say thank you to the fans by telling you a secret that I've been keeping
15:13
from you for the last two years, which is that my brand new album
15:22
what comes out April nineteenth. It's called It's called The Torture Poets Department.
15:31
I'm gonna go and post the cover right now backstage. Thank you, I
15:35
love you, thank you. I mean, come on a brand new album
15:39
in the middle of a tour, after you just broke every record in the
15:43
history book. I couldn't believe it was she just released Well, Midnight's the
15:46
one she won the award for. It was the last year Ryan and then
15:50
you know the tutor in COVID and Lover was right before that. So really,
15:54
the people are you kind of like less is more, you know,
15:56
that's just it. The people who are so overheard, the Dad's, Brad's,
16:00
Chad's even just people who are like, okay, after after the super
16:06
Bowl, this is all gonna die. When she goes over to different countries
16:08
and her in drav are just doing their thing. It's gonna go down the
16:12
fact she has a whole new album coming out. Wild to me. She
16:15
mus really like touring and stuff. I guess that's exhausting. Well. She
16:19
also made history last night, winning her fourth I guess Album of the Year.
16:25
I mean that's never happened before. Four of those. That's pretty impressive.
16:29
But when you put out, you know, two a year for twenty
16:30
years, pretty good chances are getting up there. Oh that's funny you say
16:36
that. One highlight for me too. I try really hard, Miley cyrus.
16:41
There were people hating on her on the red carpet with her gold outfit.
16:44
Very j Lo asked, I loved it. She was giving me Tina
16:47
Turner vibes. She won her first Grammy last night. By the way,
16:49
left out her dad, Billy Ray. He must have an achy breaky heart.
16:53
This morning, Pike didn't even say anything, just talked about her mom.
16:57
Oh he obviously played no role in her sixth as a musician. Absolutely
17:00
not. Her mom there supporting her. But then she had a great performance.
17:04
Listen the name and the same why I'm Gone. You don't know this
17:12
song? I don't like that. Yeah, it acts like you don't know
17:17
this song because people were just kind of like not really into it, and
17:19
then they started jamming because she, I mean she was into it. When
17:22
I say Tina Turner, I mean her dance moves, her little booty shake.
17:26
I mean I I was all in, yeah, I mean, listen,
17:30
it's not breaking, it is. Miley's a great performer. I didn't
17:33
like that, but then she said this. I didn't want to leave you,
17:36
but had to. I didn't want to five, but we did started
17:38
to crime. And remember I mean, she does the mic drop, she
17:45
kicks it off stage, she walks out there. I thought it was fantastic.
17:49
A low light for me. Last night out of everything was jay Z
17:52
winning an award. It was like an Icon award. He brought his daughter
17:56
Blue Ivy up, who I still thought was four years old. No,
18:00
it turns out she's twenty five now or something. Just all adult, just
18:03
a mini Beyonce. She's out on stage with him, who she, by
18:07
the way, has also run won a Grammy. Beyonce has won numerous Grammys
18:11
jay Z as well. But jay Z decided he wanted to pull a Kanye
18:15
and was throwing shade at Taylor Swift and dissing the fact that you're throwing shade
18:18
at the Grammys. He wasn't. It wasn't Taylor Swift targeted. I know
18:22
Swift well, think it's hard to not take it that way. Listen,
18:26
I don't want to embarrass this young lady. But she has more Grammys than
18:27
everyone and never one album of a year. So even by your own metrics,
18:32
that doesn't work. Think about that, the most Grammys, never one
18:37
album of the year. That doesn't work. I hit me with the metrics
18:40
of that. There are no metrics. There's not a rule that means if
18:42
you win Grammys then you have to win Album of the Year. You could
18:47
win Record of the Year and you know, best audio editing, whatever you
18:52
know. It doesn't mean she just needs to have a better album. The
18:56
look on Beyonce's face that hasn't gone viral yet. I guess there was a
19:00
lot with Taylor Swift breaking the Internet and Miley Cyrus, but the look on
19:06
Beyonce's face, like, Jay, I'm gonna need you to stop it,
19:10
and I'm gonna need you to sit down because this is more defied like a
19:15
man in the morning on Big Nuddy points. Don't you feel like this maybe
19:19
is an unpopular opinion that when it comes to weddings, the bride and I
19:23
get it's your day, trust me. Of course, you know, sometimes
19:26
people it just gets so over the top where they were like, you know,
19:30
you're imagine, imagine like a queen on a throne with a bunch of
19:33
peasants around, fanning them and feeding them grapes. Really need to be a
19:37
little like depending on the bride all hundred percent right. Well, this bride,
19:42
you know, she was a bridezilla. She's kind of what we're describing.
19:45
She's going viral because well her name is Dana, or at least her
19:48
fake internet name, because she was being a bit of a bridezilla. The
19:51
bride'smaids were kind of annoyed of it, but you know, again it's her
19:53
day, so she has every right to be horrible. Well until the point
19:56
it was about time for the ceremony, Amanda, when they couldn't find Dana
20:02
the bride. Okay, the groom couldn't find her either. He said,
20:04
hey, it's about go time here, you know, about to walk down
20:07
that aisle. So he opens the room where the bride is getting ready,
20:11
supposed to be getting ready. Well, she was having a quickie with his
20:15
uncle, a man shut his own uncle. It sounds like a real fun
20:22
cale. Oh man, come on, now, can you imagine? Okay,
20:26
I need details. First of all, is this an uncle that like?
20:30
Is this a one time thing? Do we have a backstory? What
20:33
do you think you think? I don't know if like Uncle Rico popped up
20:37
like, hey, I haven't been here in a while, and then he
20:40
shows up and they hit it off at the groom's dinner the night before.
20:42
I assume you gotta think anyway that this would be the not maybe the first
20:47
or second, but more like the tenth through one hundredth time. Fifty five
20:52
year old uncle calls out the wedding. Now here's where the bride's maid.
20:56
They're really upset with this bride. First of all, that's got to be
20:57
just annoying for everybody. But they canceled the wedding, And now the bride
21:02
has reached out to the bridesmaids and wants them to chip in because they're getting
21:06
charged five thousand dollars for canceling the wedding, which mean doesn't make any sense
21:11
because they are basically happen you already paid for the venue, like they're gonna
21:14
just hey, just to make things worse for you because I know your life
21:17
is sort of ruined and you just, you know, disgraced this guy.
21:19
And well they have probably a twenty four hour cancelation policy, and mama didn't
21:23
wait twenty four hours. She was waiting for like two minutes. And don't
21:26
cancel, just do something else. Oh gosh, I feel so bad for
21:32
this guy. Well he dodged the I mean listen, yes, of course,
21:36
but it still sucks. It's like the worst you know what we haven't
21:38
thought of? What haven't we thought of? Don't know which side of the
21:41
family, but that's the uncle. Can you imagine the mom or dad of
21:45
the groom, Like can you imagine like that is your brother or you know
21:49
what I mean? Yeah, I think he probably's go ahead and cut that
21:52
guy out. I think uncle probably isn't coming to Christmas this year. Or
21:56
what if they end up and then this girl doesn't leave the situation because she's
22:00
loving uncle. Oh my, got it? You think they stay together?
22:02
Then you do know? I mean, if you're willing to risk it the
22:07
day minutes before your wedding? What an uncle? Now here's what you need
22:12
to know. That's all right? Somehow would all right. Several weeks ago,
22:19
three Kansas City Chiefs fans were found dead in their friend's backyard. Early
22:23
toxicology reports were released over the weekend saying that the men had cocaine and fetanyl
22:29
in their systems. That was kind of a speculation for a lot of people,
22:32
thinking that there of course had to have been fetanyl something that truly had
22:34
taken them out so quick. But again it's the circumstances of how they all
22:38
ended up outside, how the person who lived in the home was kind of
22:42
out for three or two days, wasn't interacting with people. Then there was
22:47
the one friend who had left and said, hey, we weren't doing anything.
22:51
But then the other guy who had survived checked into rehab. So there's
22:53
been a lot of talk about it, but now we kind of know.
22:56
Yes, it's interesting to me. Did the guy who survived did he not
23:00
take the drugs? I mean, you would think not if he survived,
23:03
if it was that bad of a badge. You know, Hey, still
23:07
a lot of questions, But as they say, Amanda, I have more
23:10
questions than they have answers. Yeah, no, kidding, just so sad
23:12
all around. And I don't know if you felt this way. But yesterday
23:17
all the headlines were Patrick Mahomes arrested in Texas. They had the senior real
23:22
small, nice clickbait. But Patrick Mahomes' dad, eight days before the Super
23:26
Bowl, he ended up getting driving well intoxicated charge against him. He's fifty
23:30
four years old. Now. There's some report saying this is his sixth DUI.
23:36
Some are saying it was only his third. But he's facing his third
23:37
degree felony charge or driving well intoxicated three or more times, so I think
23:42
it has been about six times either way. His band was said at ten
23:45
thousand dollars if convicted, he could face up to ten years in prison.
23:49
Well, I don't know if he's going to get ten years, but at
23:52
the very least, why don't we just go ahead and take that guy's keys?
23:53
Absolutely, yes, he had previously, I guess, pleaded guilty for
23:57
a DUI charge in Texas in twenty eighteen. He served a forty day jail
24:00
sentence, but he did it on the weekends. You get to pick when
24:04
you're doing your jail time. I don't know, maybe this sounds like it.
24:08
I guess. I've never been arrested, but I don't know it feels.
24:12
It feels ridiculous, but when you if anything, it sounds worse.
24:18
I'd rather get say through Friday, and at least get out for the weekend.
24:21
Well, you're gonna want to paycheck. You're not gonna survive, yea,
24:23
they provide the food. Oh gosh, all right, this made me
24:26
feel old. Yesterday Mark Zuckerberg, he'd put up a throwback pick it's old?
24:30
Are you? How old? Am I? Thirty eight? But this
24:33
wild show you though. I was on Facebook when it first opened up,
24:37
and you had to be in college. Oh really, remember you had to
24:40
have a college email in order to be on Facebook. Well, he jumped
24:44
on Instagram and he put twenty years ago I launched the Facebook twenty picture of
24:51
him by the way, just looking like Napoleon Dynamite, chilling behind a computer.
24:55
So great. Did you ever watch a movie The Social Network? That's
24:57
a good film, totally good flick. Twenty years of Facebook. Who'd have
25:02
thought people would have thought it was gonna die? Probably ten years ago for
25:06
sure, And the fact that I mean truly, it's still kind of thriving.
25:08
I thought post COVID and some of the censorship and some of the things
25:11
that people were like, I'm gonna get off of here, or they have
25:15
all my information and my content. If you post this, they're not gonna
25:19
get your information any of that. Like you'd think it'd be dead by now.
25:23
I feel like they've changed it a lot of times. They haven't changed
25:26
it really in a long time. But remember back in the day, they
25:27
would like change the layout and people would just lose lose their mind, Oh
25:32
my god. And then guess what, you'd get used to it and it
25:33
would be fine, like anything. Did you know that you can download your
25:37
content off of your Facebook? Yeah? I think so. Yeah, Yeah,
25:41
I did that like a year ago. It's one of those things you
25:42
should probably do because you had brought it up last week. Basically, this
25:45
is my children's baby. But yeah, what if you lost everything? Right?
25:48
I had a girlfriend the other day her Instagram got hacked all of our
25:52
pictures, taking down everything, and she cannot get it back. So can
25:56
you? I mean, you just don't think about it, like, oh
26:00
no, this is fine, It's gonna be just fine. I have like
26:03
two baby pictures, so I mean your kids will be fine. Well,
26:06
they're twenty tapping into your twenty one year whatever. What was that challenge.
26:10
Challenge really posting a photo of yourself when you were twenty one? Quite the
26:12
challenge. It's a big ass. It was for me because it was on
26:15
my old Facebook Oh yeah, that I had when I had started, and
26:19
I don't have the username and password. I'm sure I could find it.
26:22
That was my Mandy underscore five at hotmail dot com email. I know.
26:26
I bet that in box was busy, the pictures that were on there.
26:32
I'm glad that thing has been shut down because again, this is college years.
26:36
I mean, can you imagine. So I didn't tap into that challenge,
26:38
tappened, didn't don't miss that like it a minute in the morning on
26:45
Big Nutty eight points seven. Well, I was here for a birthday party
26:48
this weekend. Not here. We didn't have the My nephew did not have
26:51
his birthday party at the radio station. Well, that would be a fun
26:52
little treat for it. I would one day. One day, I'll show
26:56
him the shower workings. But for now, we had the birthday at the
27:00
YMCA downtown here in Fargo. It's been a long time since I've been in
27:03
there. A lot of memories growing up there, yet to go to ever
27:07
been there. No oh man, you got to bring the kiddos out there.
27:11
Not to mention that Island Park pool they're working on drove by. That
27:14
thing's gonna be a doozy. I'm excited. Oh my gosh. Well,
27:17
so I come to the realization though, when it comes to buying gifts for
27:19
kids, because you know, we just had Christmas and then now my three
27:22
year old nephew, THEO three as of last week, a lot of gifts,
27:26
right, And I was for the first couple of years like trying to
27:29
be the uncle, like gave really great gifts and the kids loved them.
27:32
And I'm just coetting to the point now where it's like, one, you
27:34
know, these kids already have way more toys than they need. Huh.
27:37
Thank you for realizing that, because a lot of people just don't and they
27:41
just give to get and all that kind of stuff. And we're just not
27:44
a toy family. Yeah, we less is more, you know what I
27:47
mean. We give them one good toy, that's all you need. That
27:49
are just like we want them to be more interactive like arts and crafts or
27:52
things like that. That's awesome. So it's keeping them busy. Well,
27:56
for sure, it's like Okay, THEO loves like trucks and tractors right now,
28:00
of course, yes, but how many do you need? You know?
28:03
So we're looking at we're at Target. Of course, we wait until
28:06
Sunday morning to go get a gift. And I'm looking around. I'm just
28:08
thinking, you know, this is all this looks like to me? Is
28:11
this junk that's gonna go in a closet or a box somewhere. The kid's
28:14
never gonna play with it. You you sound like such a big boy pike.
28:18
Well, i'man guilty is charged with being a big boy proudy you son.
28:25
So we ended up getting them. And here's the other thing we got
28:27
them. What I thought it was a pretty cool like monster truck, like
28:30
a remote control monster truck for Christmas. Yeah. And so we get to
28:33
this party and I asked a Liam, the older brother, I go,
28:36
hey, you know you've been playing with the monster truck. I didn't even
28:38
remember it, like it looked right through. You're like, huh, what
28:41
monster truck are you talking about? Oh yeah, yeah, I think that
28:44
doesn't work anymore. I'm like, oh, nice, yeah, probably because
28:47
they slammed it in the wall a thousand times, or like our monster truck
28:51
and t rex that moves and has a remote. It's really weird. Pike.
28:53
We have this closet. It's all the way up in it. Oh,
28:56
now get there. The remote died and it's like, you know,
29:00
I prefer my floorboards over the monster track. That's funny to say that,
29:04
because when Liam told me, he's like, oh, it's stopped working.
29:07
I'm like, oh did it? Did you look? What? Did you
29:10
look at your sister and go you need batteries? Hunt It brings it happily
29:14
brings them over. So we got to the point where now I'm just kind
29:17
of realizing, like, you know, one, do you need to spend
29:18
a lot of money on it? No? Two. But then the dilemma
29:22
is you want them to have a gift that they're going to open and love,
29:26
because if you get them something like an experience or you know, like
29:29
I got them tickets to Monster Jam, but it's like they don't know who
29:32
gave the tickets. Depending on how you present it to them. Remember that,
29:36
Oh gosh, what Remember when I created a radio ad for my niece
29:41
and nephew to explain to them that I got them an experience to go to
29:44
a hotel. You did. It was so soun familiar. Yeah, that's
29:48
hilarious. You get to stay overnight. It was so bad. Oh yeah,
29:52
I'm so embarrassed. Maybe I got to start doing that really explain otherwise
29:56
you have to take them so that they know that it was a part of
29:59
it. But I also get you're just in their ear the whole time.
30:02
You know why we're doing this, right, Antie Amanda, that's from Anti
30:06
Amanta. I'm really proud of you though, because a lot of times you're
30:08
right. There's so many gifts and all of these different things. It's like,
30:11
oh, bully, it just hits too much. Oh my, So
30:15
what'd you go with? We end up getting a very nice soccer ball,
30:21
perfect, the cheapest thing in the world, and then we go over to
30:23
the house and turns out they've already probably got like two or three soccer balls.
30:26
But you can never go wrong with balls like that, no doubt about
30:29
it, truly though, because they either deflate really quick. They're always playing
30:36
with them, like they don't go to a style. Well, since you're
30:38
a baby, yeah, like you truly, balls of all shapes and sizes,
30:44
basketball, soccer ball, they have all of it, yes, right,
30:47
And then if you have a puppy, you lose them really quick.
30:49
They're deflating them all of that. But that is a that's a really good
30:52
one. It's a great gift, you know. And then also we got
30:55
them, you know those things. It's like a thing you put on your
30:57
hand is a valcro thing you throw the tennis and catches it. What is
31:00
the name of that? What are we all know what that is. It's
31:03
probably got a name, but we got I didn't even know they still made
31:04
those. Those are fun. I mean, that's a classic. That's like
31:07
going to the lake growing up, like always had these little velcrow hand based
31:11
the velcrow goes bad. Yes, moral of the story, Pike, it
31:15
seems like you're ready to parent. Yeah. I don't know if that's what
31:17
that means, but sure,
