Latest / Podcast - Big 98.7 / Tampax + Protein
Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: Have you noticed that everything is packed with protein these days?
- 0:08Speaker 1: I feel like every single thing on the shelves has
- 0:10Speaker 1: protein in it. So, for example, Mikey, he loves Cheerios
- 0:15Speaker 1: and now they have. Cinnamon Cheerios with protein. Oh, sure.
- 0:19Speaker 2: I think they have protein-filled pasta noodles now.
- 0:24Speaker 3: They do.
- 0:25Speaker 4: They do.
- 0:25Speaker 3: Protein fortified.
- 0:26Speaker 1: They also have turned Oreo cookies into a protein bar,
- 0:30Speaker 1: which I have one of those every day.
- 0:32Speaker 4: Beautiful.
- 0:33Speaker 1: But the thing is now, especially because I'm a woman shocker,
- 0:38Speaker 1: but I need more protein than normal because I'm aging rapidly. OK,
- 0:44Speaker 1: and so one thing that my doctor told me was like, listen,
- 0:47Speaker 1: as you get older, you lose muscle mass at a
- 0:51Speaker 1: rapid rate. And so you need to increase your protein more.
- 0:54Speaker 1: And then do like weight training to keep that muscle.
- 0:58Speaker 4: Combat that?
- 0:58Speaker 1: Yes, to combat that. And the thing is, clearly the
- 1:01Speaker 1: phones are listening. Because now every time I scroll through
- 1:04Speaker 1: on Instagram, there's ads for everything under the sun but
- 1:09Speaker 1: packed with protein. Like bagels, but it's packed with protein.
- 1:12Speaker 1: Even Doritos have protein. Like there's protein everywhere.
- 1:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:17Speaker 3: I scrolled and saw this ad.
- 1:20Speaker 1: For something that now has protein in it that feels
- 1:23Speaker 1: like we're taking it too far.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Listen to this commercial.
- 1:29Speaker 1: From Oreos to Cheerios, Doritos to Pop-Tarts, and even sparkling water,
- 1:35Speaker 1: everything has a protein-packed version these days. And as women,
- 1:38Speaker 1: we need all the protein we can get to combat
- 1:42Speaker 1: muscle mass loss. which increases as we age, starting at
- 1:45Speaker 1: age 30. That's why we're introducing Tampax Plus Protein. While
- 1:51Speaker 1: Tampax absorbs your monthly, you're absorbing protein thanks to our
- 1:55Speaker 1: new patented Absorb Switch technology. Go from PMS water weight
- 1:59Speaker 1: gain to muscle gains with Tampax Plus Protein.
- 2:05Speaker 4: Big 98.7. Celebrating life's little victories. Victory. Every morning we
- 2:11Speaker 4: practice gratitude on Big 98.7. If I could, I would
- 2:15Speaker 4: keep this feeling in a plastic jar. Bust it out
- 2:18Speaker 4: whenever someone's acting hard. I just really needed a win,
- 2:21Speaker 4: you know. Share your little victory. Victories with us at 701-280-1987.
- 2:26Speaker 2: And a big shout out to Julia this morning who said,
- 2:29Speaker 2: Little Victories had family photos last night and both kiddos
- 2:32Speaker 2: smiled and did great. Not sure if it was because
- 2:36Speaker 2: I bribed them with cookies, but either way, I think
- 2:38Speaker 2: they turned out amazing.
- 2:40Speaker 4: Usually one of them is uncooperative.
- 2:42Speaker 1: That is a major victory as someone who struggles to
- 2:46Speaker 1: get both kids to be smiling and looking like they
- 2:49Speaker 1: are enjoying taking the picture at the same time.
- 2:51Speaker 3: Like, Yeah, bribing is acceptable.
- 2:55Speaker 4: Cookies, money, whatever you got to do.
- 2:57Speaker 3: Whatever you got to do.
- 2:58Speaker 4: Whatever you got to do to snag those photos.
- 2:59Speaker 3: Because those photos last forever.
- 3:01Speaker 4: That's right.
- 3:01Speaker 3: So I love that for her.
- 3:03Speaker 2: Congratulations to you, Julia. Angie, do you have a little
- 3:05Speaker 2: victory for us here today?
- 3:07Speaker 4: You know what?
- 3:07Speaker 3: You were part of my little victory. You were there.
- 3:10Speaker 3: So yesterday, it was a meeting of the old guard
- 3:14Speaker 3: and the new, a.k.a.
- 3:16Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 3:17Speaker 1: You and I went and had lunch with Pike and
- 3:19Speaker 1: Amanda yesterday.
- 3:20Speaker 4: Yeah, it was very fun.
- 3:21Speaker 1: So fun.
- 3:22Speaker 3: It was great to just get together and chop it up.
- 3:25Speaker 1: And it is rare that I do anything social, really
- 3:28Speaker 1: social during the week, just because of the nature of
- 3:32Speaker 1: our schedules of our jobs. But it was nice to like,
- 3:36Speaker 1: just go out, have a good time and then go
- 3:38Speaker 1: home and realize, oh, crap.
- 3:40Speaker 3: It's a work night.
- 3:41Speaker 4: Yeah, it was funny.
- 3:42Speaker 2: When I got home after hanging with them for a
- 3:44Speaker 2: little bit yesterday, I went, oh, wait, I got to
- 3:46Speaker 2: go to work tomorrow.
- 3:47Speaker 4: Usually I'm hanging out with my friends on Fridays.
- 3:50Speaker 3: It was super Friday vibes.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the sad realization as an adult. It's one
- 3:55Speaker 2: of those things they don't warn you about as you
- 3:57Speaker 2: get older. Like you're probably going to see your friends
- 3:59Speaker 2: just on the weekend.
- 4:00Speaker 3: Just on the weekend.
- 4:01Speaker 4: If that. If that. My little victory was last night.
- 4:06Speaker 2: So speaking of that, I got home from having lunch
- 4:09Speaker 2: with Pike, Amanda and Angie. And Corey was on the
- 4:12Speaker 2: phone with someone she knows from work who happens to
- 4:15Speaker 2: be like a volleyball coach.
- 4:18Speaker 4: And she had.
- 4:19Speaker 2: Told us about the lights and there was an outdoor
- 4:23Speaker 2: volleyball tournament going on at the lights for Landon's light,
- 4:28Speaker 2: which was all, you know, some of the benefits and
- 4:30Speaker 2: proceeds and what have you donations going for that. And
- 4:33Speaker 2: it was just fun to watch volleyball outside at the lights. I've,
- 4:38Speaker 2: You know, you see outside sports on TV all the
- 4:41Speaker 2: time that maybe aren't meant to be outside. You know,
- 4:43Speaker 2: like the Iowa Hawkeyes had a basketball game outside at times,
- 4:47Speaker 2: and it was just so cool.
- 4:49Speaker 1: That's the picture that you posted to Big 98.7's Facebook page.
- 4:53Speaker 4: Okay.
- 4:54Speaker 3: Because I was scrolling and... And then I saw this
- 4:56Speaker 3: and I was like, wait, where's this?
- 4:58Speaker 4: Who went to this?
- 4:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 5:00Speaker 4: It was you.
- 5:00Speaker 2: It was myself, my wife and my daughter. And we
- 5:04Speaker 2: just enjoyed a little volleyball time as a family. Corey
- 5:07Speaker 2: met up with some of her. I think they're her
- 5:08Speaker 2: work friends. I don't exactly really know how they knew them.
- 5:11Speaker 2: It was very loud. So I wasn't going to like
- 5:13Speaker 2: yell across her and Kaylee to try to talk to
- 5:16Speaker 2: these two individuals. But it was super fun. So if
- 5:18Speaker 2: you were at that volleyball tournament yesterday, I was also
- 5:22Speaker 2: in attendance. Volleyball outside when it's really windy. Seems very difficult.
- 5:28Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't even think about it. It was windy yesterday.
- 5:30Speaker 3: I was outside yesterday.
- 5:32Speaker 2: Well, it felt like one side of the court always
- 5:35Speaker 2: had the advantage. Now, I was not playing, so I
- 5:39Speaker 2: don't know. But if you had a kid or you
- 5:42Speaker 2: were a player or something and you were on the
- 5:44Speaker 2: court yesterday for that volleyball game, I want to know,
- 5:47Speaker 2: was being on the, it would be the south side
- 5:52Speaker 2: of And then hitting north. Would that have been an
- 5:55Speaker 2: advantage because you had the wind with you? So everything
- 5:58Speaker 2: goes a little faster when you hit it.
- 6:00Speaker 1: How does, forgive me, but how does volleyball work?
- 6:03Speaker 3: Like, do you switch sides on the court?
- 6:05Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:06Speaker 4: Okay.
- 6:06Speaker 3: So like tennis, you switch sides.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 6:08Speaker 3: At some point, like they both get the advantage at
- 6:12Speaker 3: some point.
- 6:12Speaker 4: Right. But who knows? It might not even be an advantage.
- 6:15Speaker 4: I just thought it would be.
- 6:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Because, you know, you have to serve into the wind
- 6:19Speaker 2: all the time. And every time you hit it, you
- 6:21Speaker 2: got to hit it.
- 6:21Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 6:22Speaker 2: It just seemed very difficult. So shout out to all
- 6:24Speaker 2: the volleyball players yesterday.
- 6:31Speaker 1: I'm still reeling over the price of the iPhone dual. $ 3, 200
- 6:37Speaker 1: for the best version of that phone.
- 6:39Speaker 3: $ 3, 200.
- 6:41Speaker 1: So I wanted to play a little game with you, Gabe,
- 6:45Speaker 1: and you listening, because you're usually the one that quizzes
- 6:48Speaker 1: me on things.
- 6:49Speaker 3: So I feel like I want to do it in return.
- 6:51Speaker 3: So we're going to play a little game.
- 6:53Speaker 1: What is more expensive, the thing that I say or
- 6:56Speaker 1: the new iPhone? Okay.
- 6:59Speaker 4: I have a feeling I know where this is going.
- 7:00Speaker 4: All right.
- 7:01Speaker 1: So you're a dad and your baby's going to be
- 7:05Speaker 1: in daycare soon. What is more expensive, the new iPhone
- 7:10Speaker 1: Duo or six months of daycare?
- 7:14Speaker 2: I don't even want to know the answer to this.
- 7:17Speaker 2: I would guess it would like have to be daycare though, right?
- 7:20Speaker 2: Six months, half a year?
- 7:21Speaker 3: Yeah, six months of daycare.
- 7:23Speaker 4: I'll go with daycare.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Incorrect. Six months of daycare is less expensive than the
- 7:29Speaker 1: new iPhone Duo.
- 7:31Speaker 4: I don't know how I feel about that.
- 7:33Speaker 1: I know.
- 7:33Speaker 4: I mean, that's kind of nice. It's like, oh, okay, well, daycare,
- 7:37Speaker 4: at least I got that going. But I will never
- 7:40Speaker 4: have this new phone, ever.
- 7:42Speaker 1: What about new kitchen countertops? What is more expensive, the
- 7:46Speaker 1: new iPhone Duo or.
- 7:48Speaker 3: New kitchen countertops?
- 7:50Speaker 2: I don't know anything about kitchens, but I can't imagine
- 7:53Speaker 2: a countertop.
- 7:55Speaker 2: Is a countertop, like, I suppose if you went super
- 7:58Speaker 2: good marble, you know, I'm guessing a countertop can cost
- 8:01Speaker 2: as much as you want. But I would say the
- 8:04Speaker 2: average countertop in like a regular everyday house is not $ 3, 200.
- 8:10Speaker 4: So I'll say the phone is more expensive.
- 8:12Speaker 3: You are correct.
- 8:13Speaker 1: The average new countertop situation for the kitchen is, uh
- 8:18Speaker 1: is less expensive than the iphone duo.
- 8:21Speaker 2: And i'm sure you can spend as much as you
- 8:23Speaker 2: would like on countertops i'm sure there's ten thousand dollar
- 8:26Speaker 2: countertops out there.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Okay round trip flights for two to europe for a
- 8:32Speaker 1: week hotel stay a week yes so airfare and hotel
- 8:36Speaker 1: for two people for europe Is that more expensive than
- 8:42Speaker 1: the iPhone Duo?
- 8:43Speaker 4: It's got to be way more expensive. No, it's not.
- 8:45Speaker 4: That'd be like $ 5, 000, right?
- 8:46Speaker 3: No, it's not.
- 8:47Speaker 4: The iPhone's more expensive than a trip to Europe? Yes.
- 8:51Speaker 4: With a week hotel stay?
- 8:53Speaker 1: Yes.
- 8:54Speaker 4: Holy smokes.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Okay, and finally, finally, you know, since we're in North Dakota,
- 9:00Speaker 1: lots of farms.
- 9:01Speaker 3: A feeder calf.
- 9:04Speaker 1: Is that more expensive or less expensive than the iPhone Duo?
- 9:10Speaker 4: A feeder calf, okay.
- 9:13Speaker 2: So I did spend some of my adult life in Iowa,
- 9:17Speaker 2: so I know a lot about, not I know, but
- 9:19Speaker 2: I've been and heard a lot about pigs and cows
- 9:22Speaker 2: in the state of Iowa.
- 9:23Speaker 4: $ 3, 200 for? I don't.
- 9:28Speaker 2: This is tough because it's the same thing. I bet
- 9:30Speaker 2: you could spend as much as you want on a cow.
- 9:32Speaker 2: I will go with the phone is more expensive, though.
- 9:35Speaker 4: Correct.
- 9:36Speaker 1: The phone is more expensive and will not provide any
- 9:40Speaker 1: service for you.
- 9:41Speaker 4: You're not getting any cereal from that thing.
- 9:44Speaker 1: All right.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Today's variety big 98.7 it's gabe it's angie we do
- 9:50Speaker 2: have a pretty nice day today we get some sunshine
- 9:52Speaker 2: and a high of 86 a nice way to kind
- 9:55Speaker 2: of end off the work week and today marks 25
- 9:58Speaker 2: years since September 11th. And for anyone old enough to remember,
- 10:03Speaker 2: it's one of those moments that's just kind of frozen
- 10:05Speaker 2: in time. You know exactly where you were, what you
- 10:08Speaker 2: were doing, who you were with. So we wanted to
- 10:11Speaker 2: know this morning, what do you remember about the morning
- 10:14Speaker 2: of 9-11? Angie, we were both old enough.
- 10:18Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 10:18Speaker 2: To remember exactly what we were doing that morning, what
- 10:21Speaker 2: our day at school was like. What was your 9-11
- 10:24Speaker 2: morning like 25 years ago?
- 10:26Speaker 3: You know what was crazy?
- 10:27Speaker 1: So I was in ninth grade when that happened. And
- 10:32Speaker 1: when I got ready for school, I didn't have the
- 10:34Speaker 1: TV on. I got to school, everything... The vibe was off.
- 10:38Speaker 4: It was just weird.
- 10:39Speaker 1: And then it was that all of the English teachers
- 10:45Speaker 1: in their department, they were on one side of the school,
- 10:47Speaker 1: and everybody had their TVs rolled into the classroom and
- 10:51Speaker 1: like extension cords so all of the TVs could be
- 10:54Speaker 1: plugged in. And honestly, we as students were just filtering
- 10:59Speaker 1: in and watching the news coverage. And our principal at
- 11:04Speaker 1: the time said, did not want to make an announcement on,
- 11:09Speaker 1: you know, over on the PA system about what happened. Right.
- 11:13Speaker 1: And all of the teachers were like, no, this is
- 11:15Speaker 1: literally American history happening in real time. And just because
- 11:19Speaker 1: they're high school students doesn't mean that this won't affect
- 11:22Speaker 1: them or that they can't handle it, you know? And
- 11:25Speaker 1: so all of the English teachers came together and made
- 11:29Speaker 1: sure that all of the students who wanted to came
- 11:32Speaker 1: in and, you know, saw the news coverage of what happened.
- 11:34Speaker 1: And it was, insane to watch. Like it felt surreal.
- 11:40Speaker 1: And I think 25 years later, it still feels so
- 11:43Speaker 1: surreal that this tragic event happened. And when they say
- 11:47Speaker 1: never forget, I mean, boy, do we not forget. And
- 11:50Speaker 1: I think that's important.
- 11:51Speaker 2: Yeah, I was in fifth grade, and I was at
- 11:54Speaker 2: the end of my parents' driveway, which was our bus stop.
- 11:58Speaker 2: And it was myself, my sister, and a couple of
- 12:01Speaker 2: the other kids who lived in the neighborhood. And that's
- 12:04Speaker 2: just where our bus stop was, was my parents' driveway.
- 12:06Speaker 2: And there was a man who worked for the garbage
- 12:10Speaker 2: company or the recycling.
- 12:11Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 12:12Speaker 2: He was grabbing the bins and he was like, oh, hey,
- 12:14Speaker 2: do you guys like know what happened this morning?
- 12:17Speaker 4: And we all I didn't have the TV on.
- 12:19Speaker 2: I was going out to the bus two seconds before
- 12:22Speaker 2: it showed up because it was my parents driveway.
- 12:24Speaker 4: I sit and kind of walk on out there.
- 12:27Speaker 2: And then he was like, well, just a heads up,
- 12:29Speaker 2: like you might have a pretty unique day at school today.
- 12:32Speaker 4: This is what happened.
- 12:34Speaker 2: So just when you get to school, be ready for
- 12:36Speaker 2: it to not necessarily be a normal day, which was
- 12:38Speaker 2: kind of interesting that this guy who he didn't know us,
- 12:41Speaker 2: he might wave to us from time to time when
- 12:43Speaker 2: he would drive by and get the bins.
- 12:44Speaker 4: But and then we were like, oh, OK.
- 12:47Speaker 2: And we got on the bus, went to school, kind
- 12:49Speaker 2: of the same thing. The second I walked into my
- 12:51Speaker 2: fifth grade class, it was just like the TV on
- 12:53Speaker 2: in the corner. and our teacher just kind of explained
- 12:56Speaker 2: what happened and what it could mean, what our day
- 12:59Speaker 2: was going.
- 13:00Speaker 4: To be like. And it was really sort of the same.
- 13:02Speaker 2: If parents wanted to take their kids out of school
- 13:05Speaker 2: that day, they could. If you couldn't do that, they
- 13:09Speaker 2: had work or whatever and couldn't get the kids out,
- 13:11Speaker 2: we kind of just sat in there and.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Talked I guess and had somewhat of a normal day
- 13:17Speaker 2: when we had to like go to gym like we
- 13:19Speaker 2: still had to do gym and we still had to
- 13:21Speaker 2: do recess and things like that but for most of
- 13:23Speaker 2: the day in the class we just had the tv
- 13:26Speaker 2: on and were and we were in fifth grade that's
- 13:28Speaker 2: a little bit different than ninth grade yeah obviously way
- 13:31Speaker 2: more mature in ninth grade than when you're 10 right
- 13:33Speaker 2: but yeah we just had the tv on and kind
- 13:37Speaker 2: of sort of had a not normal tried to be
- 13:40Speaker 2: as normal day as possible so I always wonder for
- 13:43Speaker 2: my sister who would have been in second grade, second
- 13:47Speaker 2: or third grade, what her day was like because she's
- 13:49Speaker 2: even younger. It's even harder to understand when you're in
- 13:52Speaker 2: like kindergarten or first grade, you know?
- 13:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was especially for millennials like that
- 13:58Speaker 1: was probably one of the first like major things. Like
- 14:03Speaker 1: world events that we experienced in real time.
- 14:06Speaker 4: For sure.
- 14:06Speaker 1: There definitely was the thought even back then in our classes,
- 14:11Speaker 1: like in our history class, that was like, this is
- 14:14Speaker 1: going to end up in textbooks.
- 14:16Speaker 4: Right.
- 14:16Speaker 3: You know, in the years to come.
- 14:19Speaker 1: And it's insane to me that it's already been 25 years,
- 14:23Speaker 1: but insane to me that it's only been 25 years.
- 14:26Speaker 1: And like the effects of 9-11, obviously, like a ripple
- 14:30Speaker 1: effect that really has changed our life as we know it,
- 14:34Speaker 1: even if you think about all of the protocols that
- 14:37Speaker 1: they have and Obviously, they make sense, but all of
- 14:40Speaker 1: the protocols that they have at the airport that didn't
- 14:43Speaker 1: exist before 9-11 happened, it's insane to see how that
- 14:48Speaker 1: changed our world.
- 14:49Speaker 2: Yeah, so if you want to chime in this morning,
- 14:52Speaker 2: what do you remember about the morning of 9-11?
- 14:54Speaker 4: Where were you?
- 14:55Speaker 2: What were you doing when you first heard the information?
- 14:57Speaker 2: If you're someone like Angie and I in that millennial range,
- 15:01Speaker 2: what was your day of school like? Let us know
- 15:03Speaker 2: at 701-280-1987.
- 15:07Speaker 4: Big 98.7. In the world of rules and gray areas,
- 15:10Speaker 4: one morning show dares to ask the hard questions. We
- 15:13Speaker 4: both know you're guilty. He's guilty. Is it legal? You're
- 15:17Speaker 4: guilty of the worst crime of all. On Big 98.7.
- 15:23Speaker 2: Yesterday, my wife, Corey, I and our daughter, Kaylee, went
- 15:26Speaker 2: to go watch a volleyball tournament at the Lights for
- 15:30Speaker 2: Landon's Light. And I went to go grab a Powerade
- 15:34Speaker 2: and I had a $ 10 bill I was going to
- 15:36Speaker 2: pay with that. And they were like, oh, we only
- 15:38Speaker 2: take card and which was fine. I, you know, I
- 15:40Speaker 2: couldn't care less. So I bought my Powerade and off
- 15:43Speaker 2: I went. And that got me thinking, can a business
- 15:47Speaker 2: tell you no cash? I know you see that sometimes
- 15:50Speaker 2: when you go into a place like no cash here
- 15:52Speaker 2: or You see no checks accepted everywhere, basically. But is
- 15:57Speaker 2: that a law, or is it just a strong suggestion?
- 16:00Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:01Speaker 2: Okay, so is it legal for a store to reject cash?
- 16:05Speaker 2: You walk in, you got your $ 5 Abe Lincoln in hand,
- 16:08Speaker 2: and you're ready to pay like it's 1995.
- 16:09Speaker 4: Well... It is completely legal.
- 16:14Speaker 2: It turns out I have a $ 10 bill right here, Angie.
- 16:16Speaker 2: And on this $ 10 bill, it says legal tender for
- 16:20Speaker 2: all debts, public and private.
- 16:23Speaker 4: Well. It's kind of cute, but it doesn't apply, okay?
- 16:26Speaker 2: Federal law says cash has to be accepted for debts
- 16:29Speaker 2: you already owe, not for buying things like your oat
- 16:33Speaker 2: milk latte before you've ordered it.
- 16:36Speaker 3: Oh, okay.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Yeah, and get this, neither North Dakota or Minnesota requires
- 16:41Speaker 2: a business to take cash. Lawmakers in both states have
- 16:44Speaker 2: tried to pass, like, you gotta take cash laws, and
- 16:47Speaker 2: both times, denied. So the next place that says card-only...
- 16:53Speaker 2: They've got the law and apparently Congress backing them up.
- 16:56Speaker 2: If you've ever gone to... like Target Field or U.S.
- 17:00Speaker 2: Bank Stadium. It's been a minute since I've been to U.S.
- 17:03Speaker 2: Bank Stadium, probably half a decade. But when this was
- 17:05Speaker 2: five years ago or four years ago or whenever I
- 17:08Speaker 2: was there.
- 17:08Speaker 4: Last, no cash. Only take card.
- 17:11Speaker 3: No cash, all card.
- 17:12Speaker 2: I think that might have been maybe a COVID kind
- 17:14Speaker 2: of thing where they were just trying to stop that.
- 17:16Speaker 2: So I didn't know if they had maybe let up
- 17:18Speaker 2: on that down the line. But at one point at U.S.
- 17:21Speaker 2: Bank Stadium where the Vikes play, it was card only,
- 17:24Speaker 2: no cash at all.
- 17:25Speaker 4: Wow. Okay. Well, now.
- 17:27Speaker 3: I'm kind of bummed. I really was wishing that you
- 17:29Speaker 3: would say, no, they have to take your cash.
- 17:31Speaker 2: Just so you could have the confrontation.
- 17:39Speaker 4: Starting off the day with something good. This is Gabe's
- 17:43Speaker 4: Good News on Big 98.7.
- 17:47Speaker 2: If you live in lakes country, there's a good chance
- 17:50Speaker 2: you've got a painting by Linda Dobert hanging somewhere in
- 17:53Speaker 2: your house. She was one of Detroit Lake's most beloved
- 17:57Speaker 2: artists and her work spans decades. Her daughter says it
- 18:01Speaker 2: wouldn't surprise her if one out of every four homes
- 18:04Speaker 2: within 50 miles has one of her paintings. Now, Linda
- 18:08Speaker 2: did pass away in 2016 and now a decade later,
- 18:11Speaker 2: her children are honoring her legacy in the sweetest way.
- 18:14Speaker 2: They've asked the community to lend, so not give, but
- 18:17Speaker 2: lend back pieces of her work, and 150 of those
- 18:21Speaker 2: paintings are now hanging together at the Becker County Museum
- 18:25Speaker 2: in Detroit Lakes. The exhibit opens today and runs all
- 18:29Speaker 2: the way through January 2nd, which is such a beautiful
- 18:32Speaker 2: way to celebrate a mom, an artist, and a legacy
- 18:34Speaker 2: that's hanging in homes across all of our region.
- 18:38Speaker 3: That is incredibly sweet.
- 18:40Speaker 4: Very sweet.
- 18:41Speaker 2: And if you have a chance to go check out
- 18:43Speaker 2: the museum, obviously, we hope you do so. The world
- 18:45Speaker 2: is full of nice people. If you can't find one,
- 18:48Speaker 2: you got to be one. And never forget, broken crayons,
- 18:50Speaker 2: they still color.
