- 3:47Speaker 3: Do you have a little victory while we get our
- 3:49Speaker 3: birthday dance on this morning?
- 3:51Speaker 2: You know what my little victory is that I wrapped
- 3:55Speaker 2: almost all of the Christmas presents. In fact, okay, so
- 3:58Speaker 2: all of the Christmas presents that have a to my home,
- 4:02Speaker 2: I have wrapped them and they're under the tree.
- 4:04Speaker 3: Really yeah, are they? Is it quality?
- 4:07Speaker 5: Like?
- 4:07Speaker 3: Are you good at wrapping gifts?
- 4:08Speaker 4: No?
- 4:08Speaker 1: But I love wrapping gifts.
- 4:10Speaker 3: I could see you being pretty good. Actually no, I'm not.
- 4:14Speaker 2: I do but wrapping I have not gotten a handle
- 4:18Speaker 2: on it, but I love to do it. So I mean,
- 4:21Speaker 2: the present gets wrapped, it's covered. There's just it's a
- 4:25Speaker 2: little sloppy sometimes. Yeah, but it's a joyous thing for.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Me to wrap gifts. I don't know why. I love
- 4:31Speaker 1: it so much.
- 4:31Speaker 3: If I were to wrap a present with my hands
- 4:33Speaker 3: and then wrap another present with my feet, I don't
- 4:37Speaker 3: think you'd be able to tell which one I don't
- 4:38Speaker 3: my feet. Well that's dope, that's nice. It's off your
- 4:42Speaker 3: plate now.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:44Speaker 2: And then so then we just have to wait for
- 4:46Speaker 2: Santa Clause to get here, and those presents I don't
- 4:50Speaker 2: have to wrap.
- 4:50Speaker 1: That's Sannah and the elves jobs.
- 4:52Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that, all right? What about you, Gabe,
- 4:55Speaker 3: my little victory? Do you know? It was so nice?
- 4:57Speaker 3: So my wife wasn't feeling great? And over this.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Week wow, you thought that was so nice? Rude?
- 5:03Speaker 3: Well, over this weekend, I basically kind of cleaned the
- 5:07Speaker 3: whole house. And I'm talking not just like, oh, you
- 5:11Speaker 3: vacuumed and like pick some stuff up. I did do
- 5:15Speaker 3: some baseboards, I did some vents. Oh did you know?
- 5:19Speaker 3: I wiped down all the surfaces, bathrooms, the whole nine
- 5:22Speaker 3: yards and it was kind of nice. Well yesterday when
- 5:25Speaker 3: I got home from work, man, it's pretty clean in here,
- 5:30Speaker 3: all right.
- 5:30Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 5:31Speaker 3: I did this solo only, of course, for yesterday to unfold,
- 5:35Speaker 3: and I'm sure when I go home it's complete mess.
- 5:37Speaker 3: But it was not those five minutes.
- 5:41Speaker 2: Yeah, that's always how I feel when I cleaned the
- 5:43Speaker 2: house and then my boys come upstairs and I'm like, wow,
- 5:47Speaker 2: this is short lived.
- 5:48Speaker 3: Yeah, I frost. It's like whenever, like a cat.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Enters a room, oh yeah, in the.
- 5:52Speaker 3: Litter box and bringing litter with them or what. It's
- 5:56Speaker 3: just a nightmare. But it was for those five minutes, yes,
- 5:59Speaker 3: and that is.
- 5:59Speaker 1: A little victory.
- 6:00Speaker 2: And that's what we celebrate here on Big ninety eight
- 6:03Speaker 2: point seven.
- 6:08Speaker 3: And we do have your opportunity to give Santa Claus
- 6:12Speaker 3: a call with Santa's hotline, brought to you by Corwin Subaru.

- 7:19Speaker 3: Highty big ninety eight point seven is Gabe and Angie
- 7:22Speaker 3: partly sunny today and we don't have a high on
- 7:24Speaker 3: thirty seven. Enjoy it because we could see some snow
- 7:26Speaker 3: and it could get cold tomorrow. Now, if you do
- 7:29Speaker 3: not know this yet, this morning, Angie and I have
- 7:33Speaker 3: official access to the North Pole Government Department of Christmas
- 7:38Speaker 3: Affairs and we got a little early sneak peak at
- 7:41Speaker 3: the Naughty or Nice List. Now we want to give
- 7:43Speaker 3: you a heads up. You would have seven days right,
- 7:45Speaker 3: so next Wednesday is Christmas E when Santa There really
- 7:49Speaker 3: isn't a whole lot you can do on that day. Okay,
- 7:51Speaker 3: cold or uggs is what you're getting under the tree.
- 7:55Speaker 3: If you would like a chance to sneak peak. If
- 7:59Speaker 3: you are maybe your kids are on the Naughty or
- 8:01Speaker 3: Nice list, text us a name you want us to
- 8:04Speaker 3: look up and we will do that for you, Angie.
- 8:07Speaker 3: She's on the nice list so far. I think plenty
- 8:11Speaker 3: of time for that to get flipped around the other way.
- 8:13Speaker 1: I hate that that's accurate. Gabe. However, Gabe is on
- 8:18Speaker 1: the naughty.
- 8:18Speaker 3: List, which I don't know how.
- 8:20Speaker 1: I think you know how. Don't try to play us.
- 8:24Speaker 2: Okay, you're on the naughty list, but you have seven days.
- 8:28Speaker 1: To turn it around.
- 8:29Speaker 3: Yeah, all right. We did get a text. This is
- 8:32Speaker 3: from Brittany. She asked if she could check on the
- 8:34Speaker 3: name Beth. So Beth is either a daughter maybe, or
- 8:38Speaker 3: a friend or a sister or something. Now, Brittany, I
- 8:42Speaker 3: need you to let Beth know Beth on the naughty list.
- 8:46Speaker 3: Beth is on the naughty list.
- 8:48Speaker 1: Beath, what did you do now?
- 8:50Speaker 3: I haven't looked up Elizabeth, which could be Beth's real name.
- 8:54Speaker 3: But Beth is on the naughty list. So turn it around, right.
- 8:59Speaker 3: If there's one in your life that you either want
- 9:01Speaker 3: to give the heads up that they got to get
- 9:03Speaker 3: their act together here in the next seven days, let
- 9:06Speaker 3: us know. Call us or text us at seven oh
- 9:08Speaker 3: one two eight zero one nine eight seven And Angie
- 9:11Speaker 3: and I have nothing to do with this. Okay, this
- 9:12Speaker 3: is from the North Pole Government Department of Christmas Affairs.
- 9:15Speaker 2: Yeah, we're just we're the messengers. Okay, so donks to
- 9:18Speaker 2: the messenger.
- 9:21Speaker 4: This is am I the problem.
- 9:24Speaker 1: It's me, Hi the problem, it's me.
- 9:28Speaker 5: We'll hear one side of the story and with your
- 9:30Speaker 5: help probably decide if it's right or if maybe you're
- 9:36Speaker 5: the problem.
- 9:36Speaker 1: That's right, I am the problem.
- 9:39Speaker 4: On Big ninety eight point seven.
- 9:41Speaker 2: Brian wrote into us and this is a fun one.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Hey guys, I need to know if I'm the problem
- 9:47Speaker 2: here or if this is just the pettiest thing I've
- 9:49Speaker 2: ever experienced.
- 9:50Speaker 1: There's a guy in our neighborhood who's basically known as
- 9:53Speaker 1: the snow blowing Hero.
- 9:55Speaker 2: After every big snowfall, he clears everyone's driveway. Literally everyone
- 9:59Speaker 2: on the block gets their driveway cleared without asking, total
- 10:03Speaker 2: legend except me.
- 10:06Speaker 1: After this snow we just had.
- 10:08Speaker 2: I watched him do the entire block, both sides of
- 10:11Speaker 2: the street. This man even went back to touch up spots.
- 10:14Speaker 2: Then he got to my house, made eye contact. Best believe,
- 10:18Speaker 2: I was out there watching and kept going.
- 10:26Speaker 1: My wife.
- 10:28Speaker 2: My wife wants me to add that I'm a Packers fan.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Flag in the garage and on the outside of the
- 10:33Speaker 2: house license plate frame, and I wear my jersey every Sunday, Monday,
- 10:36Speaker 2: and Thursday.
- 10:38Speaker 1: He's a loud and proud Vikings fan.
- 10:41Speaker 2: He never said a word or complained about me being
- 10:43Speaker 2: a cheesehead, but if I had to guess, that's why.
- 10:46Speaker 2: So am I the problem for being annoyed that I
- 10:48Speaker 2: got skipped? Let me tell you, Brian, Absolutely, you're the problem.
- 10:52Speaker 2: You are rivals. Why would he snowblow your yard? Okay,
- 10:57Speaker 2: it's like you.
- 10:58Speaker 1: Don't understand how a rival he works. Of course you
- 11:02Speaker 1: are the problem. I respect this man, whatever his name is.
- 11:06Speaker 2: I want to know because surely he's on the nice
- 11:08Speaker 2: list because he's following the rules of rivalry. I love
- 11:13Speaker 2: that he made eye contact with you and then just
- 11:15Speaker 2: kept going that's exactly as it should be.
- 11:18Speaker 3: And what's this guy's name? Brian?
- 11:20Speaker 1: Brian?
- 11:20Speaker 3: Hey, Brian, Now I'll do you a favor. Okay, man
- 11:23Speaker 3: to man, this is gonna sound very guy. Okay, no
- 11:28Speaker 3: shot on God's green Earth. My wife is going to
- 11:33Speaker 3: look at me and we both look at another guy
- 11:36Speaker 3: clearing out my driveway. Okay, that's like, could you imagine
- 11:40Speaker 3: you catch my wife mowing the grass? I'm not letting
- 11:43Speaker 3: Corey cut the grass. I cut the grass. I blow
- 11:46Speaker 3: my own snow. Okay, you're not. There's no chance I'm
- 11:51Speaker 3: gonna have my wife stare at me as I stare
- 11:54Speaker 3: at snow. Blow hero for my driveway. Okay, clear your
- 11:58Speaker 3: own damn driveway. How about that? Wow, that's what I feel. No,
- 12:02Speaker 3: I mean, he probably could have helped you out.
- 12:03Speaker 5: But.
- 12:05Speaker 3: At the same time, to clear your own driveway. Maybe
- 12:07Speaker 3: you're I like what Vicky sent. All right, Vicky's already
- 12:10Speaker 3: commented on this. She said, maybe the other neighbors are
- 12:12Speaker 3: less physically able to do it, and he views you
- 12:14Speaker 3: as being capable of doing your own. That's right, Tie
- 12:18Speaker 3: up your own bootstraps, get on the snow pants, and
- 12:20Speaker 3: clear your own snow.
- 12:21Speaker 1: We do have this up on the big ninety eight points.
- 12:23Speaker 2: I'm on Facebook page, so you can leave your thoughts
- 12:26Speaker 2: or call us seven oh one two, eight oh one,
- 12:28Speaker 2: nine eighty seven. I like Vicki's view. That's really optimistic.
- 12:32Speaker 3: I'm just upset. Instead of email and start snowblowing, heave
- 12:39Speaker 3: a very fun am I the problem?
- 12:42Speaker 1: Ryan wants to know if he's the problem.
- 12:44Speaker 2: There's a neighbor who always snow blows the entire neighborhood's
- 12:48Speaker 2: drive ways after a big snowfall, except for this man
- 12:53Speaker 2: skips his house.
- 12:54Speaker 1: And here's the thing.
- 12:55Speaker 2: The guy who does the snow blowing huge Vikings fan
- 12:59Speaker 2: Bry who wrote in.
- 13:00Speaker 1: To us a Packers fan, so he wants to know.
- 13:03Speaker 2: Is he the problem for being mad that his neighbor
- 13:06Speaker 2: always skips his driveway? I think all's fair and football
- 13:12Speaker 2: and rivalries.
- 13:13Speaker 3: That's right. Now. I am a die hard Vikings fan.
- 13:16Speaker 3: I have been for thirty five years and I sadly
- 13:18Speaker 3: will be for the rest of time.
- 13:20Speaker 1: Like that, you qualified it, sadly.
- 13:24Speaker 3: I have a lot of really good friends who are
- 13:26Speaker 3: Packers fans, and of course we like to have fun
- 13:28Speaker 3: during the football season. But obviously I don't hold this terrible,
- 13:33Speaker 3: terrible burden against.
- 13:34Speaker 1: Them, right, you're not a grudge hold No.
- 13:36Speaker 3: I love those guys that are there are fans of
- 13:39Speaker 3: the Packers, They could be fans of anybody. Now, there
- 13:41Speaker 3: are some people who I think probably have a very
- 13:44Speaker 3: mature outlook on this entire situation. Like I believe her
- 13:48Speaker 3: name is Seann. She said he must be a die
- 13:51Speaker 3: hard fan. I don't think that's nice of him. If
- 13:54Speaker 3: in fact, that's the reason agree with a couple comments,
- 13:57Speaker 3: ask him, or are you young enough to where you
- 13:59Speaker 3: got your own muscles to clear up your own space?
- 14:03Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I want to know, Brian. Can you
- 14:05Speaker 2: snowblow your own driveway? Because maybe he's helping people out
- 14:09Speaker 2: that can't.
- 14:10Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe he's you gotta go through some adversity in life.
- 14:12Speaker 3: That is a saying I tell Angie on a daily basis.
- 14:16Speaker 3: You gotta go through some adversity. It toughens you up,
- 14:19Speaker 3: It makes you a better person, and it allows you
- 14:22Speaker 3: or helps you to treat other people with more respect.
- 14:24Speaker 2: Okay, what if this whole time, what we don't realize
- 14:27Speaker 2: is that every other neighbor pays this man except Brian.
- 14:31Speaker 3: Yeah, so, Brian, a, you're either lazy or cheap, but
- 14:34Speaker 3: you can't figure it out, dude. But also, you could
- 14:39Speaker 3: realistically just talk to the guy. He Is there a
- 14:41Speaker 3: reason you skip my house? Maybe your dog poops in
- 14:44Speaker 3: his lawn or something and he doesn't like that.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I think the answer is always communication.
- 14:54Speaker 3: I recently came across this list of some of the
- 14:56Speaker 3: best white Elephant gifts of twenty two. You might be
- 15:01Speaker 3: doing this with your family you might be doing this
- 15:03Speaker 3: with your work, your friends, whatever the case may be.
- 15:06Speaker 3: And if you have ever got a white elephant gift
- 15:08Speaker 3: that wasn't maybe the best, we want to hear about
- 15:12Speaker 3: it here this morning. I'm sure you appreciated it. I'm
- 15:15Speaker 3: sure you enjoyed.
- 15:18Speaker 1: The No no, no, no game stop.
- 15:20Speaker 2: No.
- 15:20Speaker 3: I'm trying to get on the nice list.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Oh that's right, Well I'm on the nice list. So
- 15:25Speaker 1: let's see if this.
- 15:26Speaker 3: Ends me up on the night.
- 15:28Speaker 2: I cannot stand white elephant because there's always a few
- 15:32Speaker 2: people who do not take the assignment seriously and they
- 15:37Speaker 2: bring in gifts that are trash. And I remember a
- 15:41Speaker 2: white elephant party in Gosh. I was a junior in
- 15:45Speaker 2: high school and we did it as a class.
- 15:48Speaker 3: You're still hanging onto this from my junior in high school.
- 15:51Speaker 2: Your girl holds grudge, okay, okay, and you're on the
- 15:54Speaker 2: nice life.
- 15:55Speaker 1: I ended up.
- 15:58Speaker 2: That just means I must do a bunch of really
- 16:00Speaker 2: amazing things.
- 16:01Speaker 1: Anyway. I ended up with.
- 16:05Speaker 2: Marshmallow scented body wash. That is the word the dumbest.
- 16:12Speaker 2: That shouldn't be a scent. I don't know who approved that,
- 16:15Speaker 2: who allowed that. It wasn't s'mores. It was marshmallow marshmallow
