#Oreogate · Podcast - Big 98.7

0:02
Speaker 1: I have compiled a good chunk of clips here from
0:07
Speaker 1: individuals that may or may not be one-hit wonders. And
0:12
Speaker 1: I think pretty early on, you'll find out that these
0:15
Speaker 1: are a lot of trick questions, Angie.
0:16
Speaker 2: Oh, great.
0:17
Speaker 3: I've set you up for failure.
0:19
Speaker 1: If you are riding in your car and you hear
0:22
Speaker 1: these clips, you know you're obviously welcome to guess and
0:24
Speaker 1: play along with us here this morning. Are you ready
0:27
Speaker 1: for for the first one, Angie. Very famous song. You
0:30
Speaker 1: probably know almost all the words to this.
0:32
Speaker 4: Okay.
0:33
Speaker 3: Okay, are you ready?
0:33
Speaker 2: Yep.
0:34
Speaker 3: Here we go.
0:35
Speaker 5: One, two, three, four, five.
0:38
Speaker 6: Everybody in the car, so come on, let's ride to
0:40
Speaker 6: the liquor store off the corner.
0:43
Speaker 5: The boys say they want some gin and juice, but
0:45
Speaker 5: I really don't wanna.
0:46
Speaker 1: That is obviously Lubega Mambo No. 5.
0:49
Speaker 3: Was Lubega a one-hit wonder?
0:52
Speaker 4: And he never mamboed again. That's a one-hit wonder, baby.
0:55
Speaker 2: And....
0:57
Speaker 1: You would be exactly correct. He did have some hits internationally, but...
1:04
Speaker 1: We don't count that here in America.
1:05
Speaker 3: Only one U.S. one-hit wonder.
1:08
Speaker 1: If you can see, I've kind of rigged the deck
1:10
Speaker 1: a little bit for some of these, okay? What about
1:12
Speaker 1: this song, Angie?
1:13
Speaker 3: Remember this one?
1:14
Speaker 5: Tag team, back again.
1:16
Speaker 7: Check it, direct it, let's begin. Party on, party people,
1:19
Speaker 7: let me hear some noise.
1:20
Speaker 2: D.C.
1:20
Speaker 7: 's in the house, jump, jump, rejoice. There's a party
1:22
Speaker 7: over here, a party over there. Wave your hands in
1:24
Speaker 7: the air, shake the derriere. I love this song.
1:28
Speaker 6: This takes me back to fourth grade. Jumper of competition
1:33
Speaker 6: was to this song.
1:35
Speaker 4: And I believe it's a one-hit wonder.
1:37
Speaker 3: Tag Team.
1:38
Speaker 2: Yes.
1:38
Speaker 1: They are a true one-hit wonder. The only song, unless
1:43
Speaker 1: you were really diving deep into Tag Team, the only
1:47
Speaker 1: real song that they had out that.
1:49
Speaker 3: We listened to. Up two for two, baby. Up two
1:51
Speaker 3: for two. What about this one?
1:55
Speaker 6: That's Gautier, and that's a true one-hit wonder. He is
2:01
Speaker 6: now someone that we used to know, and we do
2:04
Speaker 6: not know this man anymore.
2:05
Speaker 4: Gautier featuring Kimbra, I'll never forget.
2:08
Speaker 1: That is 1,000%, Gautier. Somebody that I used to know.
2:12
Speaker 6: Yep.
2:13
Speaker 1: Not only was he a true one-hit wonder internationally... He's
2:17
Speaker 1: also a one-hit wonder here in the United States.
2:20
Speaker 4: Yeah, he really did nothing else.
2:22
Speaker 1: Kind of surprising because this song was so massive for
2:25
Speaker 1: a chunk of time, you thought maybe they'd pick song
2:27
Speaker 1: eight from whatever.
2:29
Speaker 3: Album this is.
2:29
Speaker 6: Right?
2:30
Speaker 5: No, this is great.
2:31
Speaker 3: And turned it into some kind of hit. All right,
2:32
Speaker 3: what about this, Angie? Do you recognize this?
2:35
Speaker 5: Imagination, life is your creation. Come on, Barbie, let's go party.
2:40
Speaker 7: Come on.
2:41
Speaker 6: Okay, I don't know if you know this about me,
2:43
Speaker 6: but I am a huge Aqua fan, and they officially disbanded,
2:47
Speaker 6: I think, earlier this year or late last year. I
2:51
Speaker 6: think technically here in America, a one-hit wonder.
2:55
Speaker 3: See, you're catching on to my rules here.
2:57
Speaker 4: But internationally, I mean, Aqua was it.
3:01
Speaker 6: I love Aqua. Barbie Girl, not even the best song
3:04
Speaker 6: on that album.
3:05
Speaker 5: Wow.
3:06
Speaker 3: Well, some people with Aqua would assume one-hit wonder.
3:09
Speaker 1: But Aqua did have other charting singles, most of them overseas.
3:15
Speaker 3: So technically... Not quite a one-hit wonder.
3:19
Speaker 6: All right.
3:22
Speaker 1: If you have any one-hit wonders, by the way, that
3:24
Speaker 1: you would like to send us, let's see if you
3:28
Speaker 1: can stump Angie here this morning.
3:30
Speaker 3: Someone who maybe had a one-hit wonder.
3:33
Speaker 1: But a song that charted internationally or it just wasn't
3:36
Speaker 1: in the top 10 or something on billboards. Let's see
3:39
Speaker 1: if we can get Angie this morning. 701-280-1987. I knew
3:43
Speaker 1: Angie was going to be really good at this. If
3:45
Speaker 1: you don't know this about Angie, incredible at trivia.
3:48
Speaker 4: Oh, thank you.
3:49
Speaker 3: I appreciate that. Very, very good trivia teammate.
3:51
Speaker 6: I feel like next week I want to do this
3:54
Speaker 6: with you. I want you to identify. No, two hit wonders.
3:57
Speaker 6: I love a one hit wonder. I love a two
3:59
Speaker 6: hit wonder even more. So I think I want to
4:02
Speaker 6: do the hit and then you got to tell me
4:04
Speaker 6: what the second one was.
4:05
Speaker 2: All right.
4:05
Speaker 1: We can maybe do that next week here on Big 98.7.
4:08
Speaker 1: Let us know one hit wonder or not your favorite artist.
4:12
Speaker 2: Big 98.7.
4:15
Speaker 8: Celebrating life's little victories. Every morning we practice gratitude on
4:20
Speaker 8: Big 98.7.
4:21
Speaker 7: If I could, I would keep this feeling in a
4:24
Speaker 7: plastic jar.
4:25
Speaker 5: Bust it out whenever someone's acting hard.
4:27
Speaker 8: Share your little victories with us at 701-280-1987. Kids, I
4:30
Speaker 8: also needed a win that day.
4:36
Speaker 3: Angie, do you have a little victory for us today?
4:38
Speaker 6: It is bittersweet, but the kids and I, the kids,
4:42
Speaker 6: myself and Mikey, we were watching a show together and
4:45
Speaker 6: we just finished it. And it was a delightful show
4:50
Speaker 6: that I would have never known about unless my little
4:52
Speaker 6: brother texted me.
4:54
Speaker 4: He said, there's this cartoon. You can find it on Disney.
4:58
Speaker 6: It was originally on Cartoon Network in 2014.
5:02
Speaker 4: It's called Over the Garden Wall. It's just a limited series.
5:07
Speaker 4: The episodes are short. But the little.
5:09
Speaker 6: Boy in it, Greg, reminds me of Liam. And it's
5:13
Speaker 6: our humor. I think you should watch it. And so
5:16
Speaker 6: we did.
5:17
Speaker 4: This is such a.
5:18
Speaker 6: Funny, weird cartoon over the garden wall. And we had
5:24
Speaker 6: such a great time watching it.
5:26
Speaker 4: As a family.
5:27
Speaker 6: And the little boy did remind me of Liam.
5:30
Speaker 4: And Liam, there would be things that would happen.
5:32
Speaker 3: He goes, ha ha, that is me.
5:34
Speaker 4: And it was just really cute. And Elijah Wood is
5:37
Speaker 4: in it.
5:38
Speaker 6: Melanie Linsky, Christopher Lloyd, like so many famous people do
5:42
Speaker 6: the voices of these cartoons. And this was, Just a
5:46
Speaker 6: little series on Cartoon Network in 2014, and my brother
5:50
Speaker 6: happened to discover it in the big year of 2026, so.
5:53
Speaker 4: It was just nice to watch that as the fam.
5:56
Speaker 1: And.
5:56
Speaker 4: It's bittersweet, though, because now it's over, and we have
5:59
Speaker 4: to find something else to watch.
6:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know exactly the feeling of that. There is
6:04
Speaker 1: nothing better, by the way, than when someone gives you
6:06
Speaker 1: a show suggestion, and it ends up working out. It's like, oh,
6:10
Speaker 1: this really was worth my time.
6:11
Speaker 4: Yeah.
6:13
Speaker 1: I've gone through the same thing of shows ending recently,
6:15
Speaker 1: and they're all shows I've seen a billion times, but
6:17
Speaker 1: we just finished... The Office, because when Kaylee was born,
6:21
Speaker 1: we had a lot of kind of sitting around time.
6:23
Speaker 2: Yep.
6:24
Speaker 1: And we finished The Office. We just finished Parks and Rec.
6:26
Speaker 1: Now we're starting New Girl, which I actually haven't really watched.
6:29
Speaker 1: I've seen chunks of episodes.
6:31
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm so excited for you.
6:33
Speaker 3: So I get to watch New Girl for the first time.
6:35
Speaker 4: Oh, I love this.
6:37
Speaker 6: There's so many shows I wish I could see for
6:39
Speaker 6: the first time again. And New Girl is one of them.
6:42
Speaker 6: I hope you enjoy it.
6:43
Speaker 4: All right.
6:43
Speaker 3: Well, what was that show you.
6:45
Speaker 4: Over the garden wall.
6:46
Speaker 3: Over the garden wall. Okay, I'll have to remember that
6:48
Speaker 3: maybe when Kaylee.
6:49
Speaker 4: Gets a little older. It's super, like, quick to get through.
6:52
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, right on. It's kind of funny.
6:54
Speaker 1: My little victory is also a little family moment yesterday.
6:57
Speaker 1: I got home from work. Corey had to run to
7:01
Speaker 1: the bank, so we ran to the bank. We stopped
7:03
Speaker 1: at Herbs and Gerbs, the one right off of 25th.
7:06
Speaker 1: and we headed to Fargo Dike East Park, where there's
7:11
Speaker 1: this big walking trail and this dog park, and there's
7:14
Speaker 1: always people biking up and down right along the river there,
7:18
Speaker 1: and we sat and had a.
7:19
Speaker 3: Little family picnic.
7:20
Speaker 4: This is so cute.
7:21
Speaker 3: And I'm talking picnic picnic. We had the blanket out.
7:24
Speaker 1: We did the corny ones you see on TV.
7:27
Speaker 2: Always.
7:28
Speaker 3: I love this.
7:29
Speaker 4: We did a.
7:30
Speaker 1: Little family picnic with myself, Corey, Kaylee, and Winona. And
7:34
Speaker 1: then we walked down to the dog park for a
7:36
Speaker 1: little bit. And it was like an hour of just bliss.
7:39
Speaker 1: There was this couple in there. And they had a
7:42
Speaker 1: four-month-old dog in the dog park kind of by herself.
7:46
Speaker 1: And then Winona got in there and got to play
7:48
Speaker 1: with this young puppy.
7:49
Speaker 3: But you could tell it was going to be a
7:51
Speaker 3: big dog.
7:52
Speaker 5: Yeah.
7:52
Speaker 1: But still, she had her long floppy ears and her
7:55
Speaker 1: legs that were too long for her body. And it
7:57
Speaker 1: was just very cute. And Winona is very good around
8:00
Speaker 1: young dogs.
8:00
Speaker 4: Yeah.
8:01
Speaker 1: So it was kind of just an hour of the
8:03
Speaker 1: most fun. Family, family time ever. Yeah, I have never
8:07
Speaker 1: heard a more wholesome afternoon. Something right out of a
8:10
Speaker 1: TV show.
8:12
Speaker 2: Drop it, drop it. Big 98.7.
8:15
Speaker 4: Have you heard of Oreo gate?
8:18
Speaker 6: And I feel like maybe your algorithm wouldn't show this
8:21
Speaker 6: to you.
8:22
Speaker 4: Do you know what I'm talking about?
8:25
Speaker 1: You know, I was trying to come up with some.
8:28
Speaker 1: witty joke there? I got nothing. No, I have not
8:31
Speaker 1: heard of Oreo Gate.
8:31
Speaker 6: Okay, so on threads, I saw Oreo post about Oreo
8:37
Speaker 6: Gate saying like, oh, I didn't know Oreo Gate was
8:39
Speaker 6: going to be a thing.
8:39
Speaker 4: And I thought, wait a minute.
8:41
Speaker 6: Oreos are one of like my favorite snacks ever that
8:45
Speaker 6: happened to be accidentally vegan.
8:47
Speaker 4: Like they better not be in trouble.
8:49
Speaker 3: Favorite snacks ever.
8:51
Speaker 2: Yeah.
8:51
Speaker 4: Yes, I love Oreo. Popcorn and Oreos, baby.
8:54
Speaker 6: So I decided to dive down the rabbit hole of
8:58
Speaker 6: what this Oreo gate situation is. And now that I
9:01
Speaker 6: have a kid who has opted for bringing his lunch
9:05
Speaker 6: to school versus having school lunch, this was a new
9:07
Speaker 6: development in our home.
9:09
Speaker 4: My fourth grader wants that. I became very invested.
9:13
Speaker 6: The situation is there was a kindergarten parent group chat somewhere.
9:20
Speaker 4: Where there was a parent who.
9:21
Speaker 6: Said, hey, can everybody in the group chat not send
9:26
Speaker 6: their kid with Oreos in their lunchbox because my kid
9:30
Speaker 6: can't have Oreos at home? To which everybody in the
9:34
Speaker 6: group chat was like, uh, what?
9:38
Speaker 4: You can't control what we put on our kids' lunchbox?
9:41
Speaker 8: Right.
9:42
Speaker 6: And so then this parent went to the school and said,
9:46
Speaker 6: I think you guys should come up with an approved
9:49
Speaker 6: snack list where Oreos are not on the list. And
9:53
Speaker 6: the school said to her, listen, we encourage healthy snacks. However,
9:58
Speaker 6: we cannot control Oreos. what parents put in their kids' lunchbox.
10:02
Speaker 4: So then.
10:03
Speaker 6: Some of the people in the group chat started a
10:06
Speaker 6: separate group chat.
10:07
Speaker 4: To say, hey, we are all packing Oreos in our
10:09
Speaker 4: kids' lunches, right? Yeah. And that part sounded very Gabe
10:13
Speaker 4: Glidden to me.
10:13
Speaker 3: It's like a we ride at dawn.
10:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
10:15
Speaker 3: And our horse is filled with stuffing. What would it be?
10:20
Speaker 3: White Oreo stuffing.
10:22
Speaker 4: The cream filling.
10:23
Speaker 6: So a lot of parents then were chiming in about like, oh,
10:28
Speaker 6: you cannot control with someone. Like, this is a parenting
10:31
Speaker 6: opportunity for you to be. Say to your kid, like, yeah,
10:35
Speaker 6: you're not always going to get everything that you want.
10:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great learning moment.
10:39
Speaker 6: But there are these parents who are like, no, I'm
10:42
Speaker 6: going to try to control everything.
10:44
Speaker 4: And you know what?
10:45
Speaker 6: I feel like it's a no-brainer to be like, this
10:47
Speaker 6: mom was being ridiculous, trying to police what other parents.
10:51
Speaker 4: However, I'm an open-minded broad. And if there is.
10:55
Speaker 6: Someone out there who agrees with the mom who wanted–
11:00
Speaker 6: you know, everybody else to not pack the Oreos.
11:03
Speaker 4: I want to hear from you.
11:04
Speaker 6: I want to hear your argument because make it make
11:07
Speaker 6: sense to.
11:08
Speaker 4: Me because I don't get it. 701-280-1987.
11:10
Speaker 6: You can call us. You can text us because in
11:14
Speaker 6: my head, I don't think Oreo gate is even a thing.
11:18
Speaker 6: It's like, obviously that lady is ridiculous, but I'm open
11:21
Speaker 6: to hearing other points of view.
11:23
Speaker 4: But how do you feel, Gabe?
11:25
Speaker 2: Wow.
11:27
Speaker 1: I mean, you know exactly how I would feel about this.
11:29
Speaker 1: I don't like arbitrary rules, much less someone else's made-up rules.
11:34
Speaker 4: Yeah.
11:34
Speaker 3: But if there was, like, a health.
11:38
Speaker 1: Thing, I think that's a fair ask to be like, hey, school,
11:43
Speaker 1: my kid's deathly allergic to Oreos.
11:45
Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
11:45
Speaker 1: Is there any way we could... Or can they go
11:48
Speaker 1: eat lunch somewhere else?
11:49
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:50
Speaker 3: Whatever they would have to do.
11:51
Speaker 1: That is way different than, well, my kid doesn't get them,
11:54
Speaker 1: so the rest of the school doesn't get them.
11:55
Speaker 2: Yeah.
11:56
Speaker 3: That's insane. You're trying to parent 800 kids.
11:59
Speaker 4: Exactly.
11:59
Speaker 6: Okay, so then even if it, let's say it is
12:01
Speaker 6: an allergy thing, that I understand fully because that can
12:05
Speaker 6: be deadly. But if it's a health thing in terms of,
12:09
Speaker 6: I don't want my kids to have access to Oreos
12:11
Speaker 6: and share Oreos. Then you can't control other people. You
12:14
Speaker 6: can only control essentially your own kids. So that's when
12:18
Speaker 6: you would have to say, then you, child of mine,
12:21
Speaker 6: have to eat somewhere else. Right.
12:23
Speaker 4: Like you cannot police other people like that.
12:25
Speaker 6: It always has to be what you can control, which
12:28
Speaker 6: is like yourself and.
12:29
Speaker 4: I guess the extension of yourself, which is your child.
12:32
Speaker 3: At that point. It is interesting.
12:35
Speaker 2: 701-280-1987.
12:36
Speaker 1: It would also be kind of interesting if you are
12:39
Speaker 1: a teacher or you work in schools, I'm sure you
12:42
Speaker 1: have gotten requests like this.
12:45
Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
12:46
Speaker 3: Or similar to that. Let us know what you would do.
12:50
Speaker 1: Would you do exactly what this school did and went, well,
12:53
Speaker 1: that's silly.
12:54
Speaker 3: We can't do that. We can encourage.
12:57
Speaker 1: Good snacks, but we can't stop a kid from bringing
13:00
Speaker 1: Oreos to lunch. Very interesting and sounds like a very
13:03
Speaker 1: online back-and-forth debate.
13:05
Speaker 4: Yep.
13:05
Speaker 3: There are people who agree with this, lady?
13:08
Speaker 4: Very few.
13:09
Speaker 3: I would assume there's a couple, yeah.
13:10
Speaker 6: Very few, but then they don't give me enough context. Like,
13:13
Speaker 6: I agree with the lady. Okay, but why?
13:16
Speaker 3: I need to know why.
13:19
Speaker 2: 701-280-1987.
13:19
Speaker 1: Let us know what you think this morning here on
13:21
Speaker 1: Big 98.7 on OreoGate, which is something I never thought
13:24
Speaker 1: I'd say.
13:26
Speaker 2: Big 98.7.
13:27
Speaker 8: In the world of rules and gray areas, one morning
13:30
Speaker 8: show dares to ask the hard questions.
13:32
Speaker 2: We both know you're guilty.
13:33
Speaker 4: He's guilty.
13:34
Speaker 1: Oh, Angie, this is not an is it legal time,
13:37
Speaker 1: is it here? This would be an am I the problem.
13:40
Speaker 4: But Sabrina does want to know if she's guilty.
13:43
Speaker 3: So you know what?
13:44
Speaker 1: We're going to go ahead. Just give me one second.
13:46
Speaker 1: I'm going to fix this mistake. Here we go.
13:48
Speaker 5: This is am I the problem.
13:51
Speaker 2: It's me. It's me.
13:56
Speaker 5: We'll hear one side of the story and with your help.
13:59
Speaker 2: Am I the problem?
13:59
Speaker 5: Decide if it's right or if maybe you're the problem.
14:04
Speaker 2: I'm hardly the problem.
14:05
Speaker 5: On Big 98.7. Sorry about that.
14:06
Speaker 4: That's how you know we're live, baby.
14:09
Speaker 1: Did anybody do anything illegal in this?
14:12
Speaker 3: Am I the problem? Sorry about that.
14:14
Speaker 4: Did Sabrina do her bestie wrong? Good morning, Gabe and Angie.
14:19
Speaker 6: Just got back from vacation with my bestie, but we're
14:21
Speaker 6: in a fight now and we actually both want your opinion.
14:24
Speaker 6: Long story short, we went to an all-inclusive resort together
14:28
Speaker 6: for a week, but on the second day, I met
14:30
Speaker 6: a single guy who was amazing, and we hooked up.
14:33
Speaker 4: He was leaving the resort a day before us, so we.
14:35
Speaker 6: Spent one full day together and had dinner together another night.
14:39
Speaker 6: My friend is essentially mad that I ditched her for
14:43
Speaker 6: a dude, but we still spent most of our time
14:46
Speaker 6: together on the trip, and she literally said she was
14:48
Speaker 6: okay with it when I asked in the moment. She
14:52
Speaker 6: said she was trying to be cool, but as her
14:54
Speaker 6: best friend, I should know better and that it's actually hurtful.
14:58
Speaker 6: I would want to be away from her when this
15:00
Speaker 6: was a trip for us. We're not going to end
15:03
Speaker 6: the friendship or anything crazy, but we do want to
15:06
Speaker 6: know who you all.
15:07
Speaker 4: Think is right.
15:09
Speaker 6: Who do you think is right in this situation?
15:12
Speaker 1: As we mentioned before, girl code and guy code, they
15:14
Speaker 1: have overlapping sections, but there are sections that are completely
15:20
Speaker 1: on opposite sides of of the spectrum here. And so
15:24
Speaker 1: I can't really answer for girl code. What I would
15:26
Speaker 1: say though, is if I am out on a vacation
15:28
Speaker 1: with my buddy, and he meets himself a hottie, and
15:31
Speaker 1: he wants to explore that. That's the risk I was
15:34
Speaker 1: willing to take by going on vacation with just him, okay?
15:37
Speaker 1: I can't stop my buddy from finding his soulmate. This
15:41
Speaker 1: girl is not in the wrong at all. Do not
15:44
Speaker 1: let your bestie stop you from finding the potential love
15:48
Speaker 1: of your life for a really awesome two days, okay?
15:52
Speaker 2: Okay.
15:53
Speaker 6: Well, we are opposite then, Gabe, because I am with
15:57
Speaker 6: best friend... If it was a bestie trip, you go
16:00
Speaker 6: on this trip to spend time together. And then part
16:04
Speaker 6: of that time is like, actually, I'm going to go
16:06
Speaker 6: be with this dude for a whole day.
16:08
Speaker 4: They spent together. What am I supposed to be doing
16:10
Speaker 4: during that whole day? And then they had a dinner together.
16:14
Speaker 6: Who am I eating dinner with on that day? Even
16:16
Speaker 6: if it like wasn't the entire trip, I don't like that.
16:20
Speaker 6: I would have felt a way. And I also would
16:22
Speaker 6: have been like.
16:23
Speaker 4: No, yeah, it's cool.
16:25
Speaker 6: And tried to sound cool about it because I don't
16:28
Speaker 6: want to sound like a hater. But, yeah, I would
16:31
Speaker 6: just expect my best friend to be like, you know what?
16:33
Speaker 4: No. Like, it's fine. We're on vacation. Because, truly, they're
16:36
Speaker 4: on vacation. Are they going to be together after? Can't
16:40
Speaker 4: you find a booty call at home? Like, why did
16:44
Speaker 4: you have to do it on our vacation together? I
16:47
Speaker 4: don't like it.
16:48
Speaker 1: I think this is a life lesson here that you
16:51
Speaker 1: and just one friend vacation together. needs to be avoided
16:55
Speaker 1: at all costs. There's got to be three in case
16:57
Speaker 1: one wanders off into the wild.
16:59
Speaker 6: Oh, well, you know what? That's not a bad idea.
17:01
Speaker 6: What are your thoughts? 701-280-1987. We also have this up
17:06
Speaker 6: on the Big 98.7 Facebook page.
17:08
Speaker 2: Drop it, drop it. Big 98.7. It's me. Hi. I'm
17:10
Speaker 2: the problem. It's me.
17:15
Speaker 6: Sabrina and her bestie took a bestie little vacation for
17:20
Speaker 6: a week.
17:21
Speaker 4: And while they were there, Sabrina met a dude. They
17:23
Speaker 4: hooked up.
17:24
Speaker 6: They spent a day together and then on another night
17:27
Speaker 6: went to dinner. And so her bestie is mad. She said,
17:32
Speaker 6: you ditched me for a dude. I don't like it.
17:35
Speaker 6: Sabrina thinks, eh, I didn't ditch you for that long.
17:39
Speaker 6: And she thinks her bestie shouldn't be mad. So Gabe,
17:42
Speaker 6: you think as a dude.
17:44
Speaker 1: You don't let your bestie stop you from finding your soulmate.
17:49
Speaker 1: If a friend, if a buddy did this to mine,
17:51
Speaker 1: I think I could tolerate it for a while. If
17:53
Speaker 1: it was like a week long, that's different. We're talking
17:56
Speaker 1: a day and a dinner. Go to a museum and
17:59
Speaker 1: entertain yourself. I know I do not like that.
18:02
Speaker 6: I think if this is a bestie trip, we're taking
18:05
Speaker 6: a bestie vacation together. Then you best be with me
18:08
Speaker 6: the entire time.
18:11
Speaker 3: That's how I feel. Actually, the whole problem is from
18:13
Speaker 3: the beginning. All right.
18:15
Speaker 1: This is why we don't do a just a you
18:17
Speaker 1: and I. bestie vacation. Find yourself a third friend. It
18:21
Speaker 1: doesn't even have to be a bestie. Just find someone
18:23
Speaker 1: who will tag along.
18:24
Speaker 3: All right.
18:25
Speaker 1: So in case, yeah, in case someone finds themselves a
18:28
Speaker 1: Fabio to wander off with into the wild.
18:30
Speaker 5: Why not?
18:31
Speaker 6: Julia said on Facebook, oh yeah, I would say you're
18:35
Speaker 6: in the wrong.
18:36
Speaker 4: Sabrina's in the wrong.
18:37
Speaker 6: Reverse the roles and she ditches you.
18:39
Speaker 4: How would you feel?
18:40
Speaker 6: The whole point was a girl's trip and you prioritized
18:43
Speaker 6: a stranger over her.
18:45
Speaker 3: See, but that stranger could be her soulmate.
18:48
Speaker 4: She did not add that in her submission.
18:52
Speaker 1: This is a scene right out of a rom-com. OK,
18:55
Speaker 1: let it happen.
18:57
Speaker 6: I think you are a ridiculous person and you're just
19:01
Speaker 6: a boy.
19:01
Speaker 4: And so you don't get it.
19:02
Speaker 6: I would be really upset if the point is a
19:04
Speaker 6: bestie trip. Oh, you have to spend the entire time together.
19:08
Speaker 3: Yeah.
19:10
Speaker 4: If it's a trip. Because you're besties.
19:13
Speaker 6: I can't imagine going on a trip with my bestie
19:15
Speaker 6: and then her being like, well, I'm.
19:17
Speaker 4: Actually going to go talk to this dude.
19:19
Speaker 6: I think I also just don't like a male-centered woman.
19:23
Speaker 6: And that's what, like, it's giving to me. Like, the
19:25
Speaker 6: second a hot guy, oh, okay, I'm going to go
19:27
Speaker 6: do this now.
19:27
Speaker 5: Like, no, no.
19:28
Speaker 3: I feel you on that.
19:29
Speaker 4: I feel like men are accessories and your besties are
19:32
Speaker 4: your soulmates.
19:33
Speaker 3: That's right.
19:34
Speaker 1: Dawn said, you never ditch your girlfriend for some random dude.
19:38
Speaker 1: You are so wrong to do that. Sisters before misters.
19:42
Speaker 1: Chicks before I'll let you fill in that blank.
19:44
Speaker 6: So you know what i think what if she would
19:47
Speaker 6: have done uh okay but i'm here with my bestie
19:51
Speaker 6: so she's coming to dinner too because wouldn't you want
19:53
Speaker 6: your bestie to vet the dude if you're that's what
19:58
Speaker 6: i would.
19:58
Speaker 1: Want that's a girl i don't know i don't need
20:01
Speaker 1: my buddies to tell me if some girl is cool
20:03
Speaker 1: or not Pretty easy.
20:06
Speaker 3: No, we need it. I'm sure you do. 701-280-1987.
20:11
Speaker 1: The most useless I've ever felt in an Am I
20:14
Speaker 1: the Problem this morning for girl code here on Big 98.7.
20:18
Speaker 3: Let us know what you think.
20:19
Speaker 2: Big 98.7.
20:26
Speaker 1: If you could have a robot do one chore for
20:28
Speaker 1: you at your house, what would it be?
20:30
Speaker 3: 701-280-1987.
20:32
Speaker 1: And I'm bringing this question up because yesterday I had
20:36
Speaker 1: this very interaction, funny interaction with our Koradi, or it's
20:40
Speaker 1: like a Roomba.
20:41
Speaker 3: The vacuum that goes around your house.
20:44
Speaker 4: You had a conversation with your vacuum?
20:47
Speaker 3: I love this thing.
20:49
Speaker 1: I talk to our robot vacuum like it is a living,
20:53
Speaker 1: breathing thing.
20:54
Speaker 3: Okay, that's your first mistake, but go ahead. When he
20:57
Speaker 3: gets stuck.
20:58
Speaker 4: Oh, it's a boy. I like that.
21:00
Speaker 3: I like that.
21:01
Speaker 1: When he gets stuck underneath the couch, I'm like, oh,
21:03
Speaker 1: I got you, buddy. And I'll help him out. When
21:06
Speaker 1: he's struggling to find his way back home, I'm like, oh, here,
21:09
Speaker 1: I'll guide you.
21:11
Speaker 3: I talked to this thing like it is a living,
21:13
Speaker 3: breathing thing.
21:13
Speaker 4: Okay.
21:14
Speaker 3: And I had asked my.
21:16
Speaker 1: Cority robot yesterday, hey, is there a way I could
21:21
Speaker 1: program you to maybe help me with this laundry? Because
21:24
Speaker 1: now that we have the kid, you know, the laundry
21:25
Speaker 1: is added in quantity.
21:28
Speaker 4: Yes.
21:29
Speaker 3: It didn't respond.
21:30
Speaker 2: Right.
21:31
Speaker 3: Which did bum me out.
21:33
Speaker 1: But I was thinking, man, if I could get this
21:36
Speaker 1: thing to do a few other tasks around this house.
21:40
Speaker 2: Yeah.
21:40
Speaker 3: That would be wonderful. My wife would love it. I
21:43
Speaker 3: would love it.
21:43
Speaker 4: I don't even have a robot vacuum. Why haven't I
21:46
Speaker 4: jumped on that train yet?
21:47
Speaker 1: Well, you know, with the advancements of technology, we might
21:51
Speaker 1: be right around the corner where you could have a
21:53
Speaker 1: robot take off one of those mundane tasks for you.
21:59
Speaker 3: 701-280-1987.
22:01
Speaker 1: What do you have in a robot do if you can?
22:02
Speaker 1: Do you talk to it? Well, you just said you
22:04
Speaker 1: don't have one.
22:04
Speaker 4: I don't have one.
22:05
Speaker 1: I can't be the only one who talks to the
22:07
Speaker 1: robot vacuum like it's a little dog.
22:09
Speaker 6: No, yeah, I feel like, yeah, a lot of people
22:11
Speaker 6: talk to their back, things like that.
22:12
Speaker 4: Okay, good, thank you.
22:13
Speaker 6: For me, I feel like, oh, I can only choose one.
22:17
Speaker 6: It's between cleaning the baseboards.
22:22
Speaker 2: Oh.
22:23
Speaker 4: Or cleaning the bathtub.
22:24
Speaker 3: Okay, so getting in there.
22:26
Speaker 4: Both are bad for my back is the real problem.
22:31
Speaker 3: Hey, help me with this. Age thing.
22:34
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's not the laundry that I dislike doing.
22:38
Speaker 1: It is very easy to chuck some stuff in the
22:40
Speaker 1: washer and move it to the dryer.
22:42
Speaker 4: The folding.
22:42
Speaker 3: It is the folding.
22:43
Speaker 1: I have said before on this very radio station, I
22:47
Speaker 1: if I won the Powerball, I would pay someone a
22:50
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollar a year salary to fold my laundry.
22:55
Speaker 1: And the caveat to that is you don't even have
22:57
Speaker 1: to fold it. I hang almost all of it up.
22:59
Speaker 6: Oh, is that a dude thing? Mikey hangs almost all
23:03
Speaker 6: of his clothes too.
23:04
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a dude thing or if
23:05
Speaker 1: it's like a folding thing just takes way too much time.
23:08
Speaker 2: Yeah.
23:09
Speaker 1: And it's super easy to go, you know, go to
23:11
Speaker 1: the dollar store, Walmart and buy a hundred hangers.
23:14
Speaker 4: Yeah.
23:15
Speaker 3: I think that's the part of that. Tara, what are
23:18
Speaker 3: you having a robot do?
23:19
Speaker 1: What chore or mundane task would you have them take
23:21
Speaker 1: over for you?
23:22
Speaker 2: Changing the sheet. The fitted sheet is my mortal enemy.
23:26
Speaker 5: I would happily outsource that battle.
23:28
Speaker 3: The fitted sheet.
23:30
Speaker 6: I forgot about the fitted sheet. Yeah, yeah, changing the bedding. Oh,
23:35
Speaker 6: that's a really good one. Do they make a robot
23:38
Speaker 6: for that?
23:38
Speaker 3: Well, the bedding, too, there's no fast way to really
23:40
Speaker 3: do it.
23:41
Speaker 6: No.
23:41
Speaker 1: You just have to, you know, tuck and fold, I guess.
23:44
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's the worst.
23:45
Speaker 1: I have, when my wife was pregnant, she had this
23:49
Speaker 1: body pillow.
23:51
Speaker 4: Oh, I love the body pillow.
23:51
Speaker 1: And she was super good about washing the covering of
23:55
Speaker 1: that thing.
23:56
Speaker 5: Yeah.
23:56
Speaker 1: I have tried to help her put that back over
24:00
Speaker 1: the body pillow.
24:01
Speaker 3: Oh, no, it's impossible.
24:02
Speaker 4: It's impossible.
24:03
Speaker 1: So the second Kaylee, my daughter, was born, that thing
24:07
Speaker 1: got chucked into the yard just like all of the
24:09
Speaker 1: reels you see on Instagram.
24:11
Speaker 4: Stop.
24:11
Speaker 6: What if you guys have another kid? That body pillow
24:14
Speaker 6: is major.
24:15
Speaker 3: Well, add that to the registry, right? 701-280-1987.
24:19
Speaker 1: Let us know what mundane task or chore do you
24:22
Speaker 1: want the robot to help you out with?
24:29
Speaker 5: Starting off the day with something good.
24:32
Speaker 8: This is Gabe's Good News on Big 98.7.
24:37
Speaker 1: Well, Gabe's Good News of the Day today comes straight
24:40

25:00
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, it's Gabe's Good News.
25:01

25:03
Speaker 1: a good ending. He is now a top ten finalist
25:08
Speaker 1: in People Magazine's World's Cutest Rescue Dog Contest.

Speaker 1: And here's his owner, Barbara Cromey, on how this rescue
25:19
Speaker 1: actually is such a big deal and why he is
25:22

Speaker 4: He loves kids.
25:28
Speaker 3: He loves everybody.

25:41
Speaker 4: Ranger and I have a lot in common. Lazy, loves
25:45
Speaker 4: to sleep, good cuddler.
25:47
Speaker 1: Those are definitely qualities you look for maybe in a
25:49
Speaker 1: life partner as well as a dog. Now Ranger spends
25:53
Speaker 1: his days chasing bubbles and jumping off docks at the lake.
