Pike DJ'd a High School Prom · Podcast - Big 98.7

0:00
Would you say prom is one of the hallmark moments of a person's life,
0:04
especially growing up. It's like it all leads to your prom. It is
0:07
a big deal. So Aman, I had a very eye opening experience this
0:12
weekend because I do some DJ DJ weddings primarily. However, I had the
0:16
opportunity to be the DJ at Fargo South's prom, which is awesome. Yeah,
0:21
Saturday night, and it was you know, I was very excited for
0:23
it. Great kids, great school, and it was just so interesting because
0:28
I feel like I've kind of got the wedding thing down. You've got people
0:31
of all different generations, a lot of weddings. You're going to hear similar
0:34
music. So yeah, I feel like I got that down. But to
0:37
play music for just a very specific group of people, high schoolers, it
0:41
was you. I mean, I know, they're cranking a big ninety eight
0:44
point seven like it's their day. Ja job. I just went in there,
0:47
just turned on a radio. You're like, oh, easy, easy,
0:49
peace. But I mean, there's just so many genres, so many,
0:54
and that would blow my mind. Here was the interesting thing I found
0:57
that they wanted to hear, not like a lot of news. It was
1:00
throwbacks and listen, we all get bit by the nostalgia bug, RIGHTA.
1:06
I was so proud, Amanda. I didn't play the Macarena. I had
1:08
it on cue, I had it ready to go if I needed it.
1:12
But when I played some of the throwbacks that we were dancing to had like
1:15
our proms growing up, and they went nuts, like when this played and
1:19
they went crazy. Oh yeah, oh yeah, I mean it still hits.
1:23
Man, they were going crazy. Now this is where of my college
1:26
years. But yes, and then I also made the mistake of playing this
1:30
song, which they loved. However, did they do the dance that we
1:34
did. It's just my girlfriends and I were to the window to the wall.
1:38
Then, let me tell you, they were screaming every word and oh,
1:42
silly me didn't realize I had the unedited version, And so when that
1:48
chorus hit, yeah, I switched out of that one real quick. And
1:51
I thought it'd be a good idea. During the chorus when they said tall
1:56
mother, I thought it would just mute it quick. But then all that
1:59
did was all you could hear is they screaming. I'm surprised it didn't kick
2:02
you out after that, you would think those young souls now Here's where I
2:06
got interesting because I was worn going into it. That prom nowadays has sort
2:09
of changed compared to like when we were growing up. You know, we
2:13
loved it. We were there the whole night, We danced the whole night.
2:15
Then we went to post prompt. No, no, we didn't.
2:16
We didn't. You didn't. No, I I went and did the grand
2:22
march, walked in. We were at the We were at the dance for
2:25
maybe fifteen twenty minutes and then out. Really yeah, see I had stuff
2:30
everybody is talking about. Yeah, we had. There was h people in
2:34
our class that stayed for what was it, like the hypnotist and the games.
2:38
Yeah, I was hypnotized. It was great. Oh yeah, No,
2:40
we did not. Okay, apparently nowadays, more than ever, kids
2:44
just aren't staying for the whole dance. So I was warned that dance starts
2:47
at eight, and they said by nine point thirty, there's a pretty good
2:50
chance there's gonna be like twenty kids there. And this is far Go South
2:53
High School, so there's a lot of students. I am not surprised by
2:55
this. So for the first hour, it was going so well. I
2:58
mean, kids were loving it. I was having a great time. And
3:00
then at approximately Amanda nine thirty, I played this song bb Rexit David Getta,
3:07
Yeah, current hit, you know, and it also samples an old
3:12
song that we all grew up with, so I thought it was it's perfect
3:15
and it's it's sort of a club banger. I'm like, this is gonna
3:16
be great. And by the time bb rexas said this, it went from
3:22
literally hundreds of kids on the dance floor Amanda to seven. It was shocking.
3:28
It was where did the mask go? A mass exit through the doorways
3:31
to go? I don't know. Probably yeah, I'm sure they got had
3:36
a pizza party, limos waiting, and it just like poof, they was
3:39
gone. And I thought, what what did I do? So? What
3:44
is And I don't know if it was you. I mean they already kind
3:46
of acknowledged the fact, like, hey, they're sticking around for a little
3:47
bit and then they're out right. So but it was almost like it was
3:52
planned. It was nine thirty on the nose. I'm like, did they
3:53
all just agree that nine thirty is when we're all gonna leave? It?
3:57
Could? I don't think it mattered what club banger you were going with.
4:00
It would have it would have had to be. I think that really.
4:01
I think the only reason they stayed that long is because they did have like
4:04
some some all time bangers going, and then as soon as they heard something
4:08
that was relatively new that didn't have the nostalgia for them, they were like,
4:12
all right, and you know, did it hurt your feelings a little?
4:15
How could it not? No, I'm for sure as a DJ like
4:16
that, you take that personally. And I was way where you're like,
4:20
all right, bye, guys, what do you say? Get home?
4:24
I'm safe. So then the rest of the night, which didn't last very
4:27
long because it was there was an hour left. Meanwhile, I'm taking requests
4:30
from the school resource officer because you should have just stopped down out of bb
4:36
REXA and just went to closing time. Oh that is so great. It
4:43
was. It was fun. I mean, listen, kids are gonna do
4:45
what they're gonna do. I can't take it personally because you know, if
4:47
they they didn't want to stay that long, did they have set up?
4:51
So do they do post proms? Now? Yeah? Then the post prom
4:55
was going to be somewhere else, so I think, oh, it sounds
4:58
like more people go to that, so maybe they just wanted time to go,
5:00
I don't know, shower, change clothes, you know, you get
5:03
into some comfies, Yeah, get some food before you get to the big
5:05
hypnotists and everything. I lead you that at a different location. Yeah,
5:10
yeah, I mean even we've been intrigued. Really. Our dance was at
5:14
MSU M and then we went back to the high school in Glendon for the
5:16
post prom yours all in one place. Yeah, it was just at the
5:19
high school, and then they set up the commons area for like different places
5:24
for the locked Yeah. Yeah, yeah, we did not though. Okay,
5:29
you guys were such cool kids. No, not even that. We
5:30
just we're so tired after such a long day. We'd just go home and
5:33
go to bed. In the morning, Big ninety eight point seven time for
5:41
a little thing we do called is it Weird, where we discuss the things
5:45
we do in our personal lives, whether or not they are weird or is
5:46
it everybody else is doing them too? And we are live on our Big
5:49
ninety eight points have on Facebook page. So good morning if you happen to
5:53
be watching on there, yeah, good morning, and follow along and of
5:56
course you can always chime in. So over the weekend, my bonus mom
6:00
was in town. Gigi bonus mom. Yeah, we call her my bonus
6:03
mom, my step mom. Okay, and uh, I don't know.
6:06
I never called my step on my bonus mom. I guess no, it's
6:10
not too late, Pike, You're right, it's not too late. I
6:13
try that on for size one of these weekends. All right. So she
6:17
left yesterday and she came upstairs and she's like, oh my gosh, thank
6:21
you guys so much. And she just made a comment. She's like,
6:24
it was like staying at a spa, which we were just like laughing.
6:27
We're like, we have two crazy kids. It's more of a circus.
6:29
Wow. It was just like really relaxing. She's like, I loved the
6:32
bed, and she goes in your shower downstairs, just so fantastic. And
6:38
I was like, huh, because I've never used the shower downstairs. Yeah,
6:42
think about it, pressure or what That's what she was saying. So
6:45
we have our bathroom of course in our bed, attached to our bedroom and
6:48
use that shower. Yeah, and then our kids have like a bathroom up
6:51
were that they use. I've never used any other shower. We're going on
6:55
three years tomorrow that we built our house and I've only used one shower bathroom.
6:59
Is in one bathroom to shower? Is that weird? No, it
7:02
wouldn't be weird. Now I excited, you know, Amanda. They say
7:05
variety is a spice of life, and so sometimes have you ever tried switching
7:10
sides of the bed just for grins and giggles? That doesn't work for me,
7:12
but have you tried it? So yesterday I went to take a quick
7:15
nap and I was on I went on Nick's side, couldn't sleep like it
7:18
was just so weird to me. Really, yeah, just a different indentation
7:23
or what. I don't know, it's just the whole situation. It's like
7:26
it's not my side of the bed. I would encourage you to try using
7:29
the downstairs bathroom. You know. Sometimes you switch things up just for fun,
7:32
just for your own personal enjoyment, make things a little different. Yeah.
7:35
No, And sometimes driving into work, I'll just take a different route.
7:39
Do you really occasionally roll me off a little? No? I think
7:43
even if just for a moment, I just felt alive. Oh you know
7:46
what I mean taking a different road. I'm not going to take twenty eighth
7:49
streets then Thickner Drive I'm trying to use it right, all right, Amanda?
7:55
Is it weird that I am very grossed out when, in this case,
8:00
my nephews who are three and five, drink out of something I'm drinking
8:05
out of, Like I need to immediately sanitize wash. Like no, I
8:09
totally get that, really okay? Yeah, because if it's my kids,
8:13
it's my kids, it's my germs, it's it's just like your husband wife
8:16
situation. For some reason, it's different. I know it's impossible to say,
8:20
but if they were my kids, I feel like it would be the
8:22
same situation. No, because like if I am let's just say we're on
8:26
a boat and I have a bag of Jurido's uh huh, and somebody else's
8:30
kids come in and they eat them. I'm probably and even just other people,
8:33
I'm weird about that. I'm like, eh, I think I think
8:37
I'm good. Here would you ever? Like I can't even accept and I
8:39
feel bad. But like on Easter there was candy all over and my nephew
8:43
Theo's three kept wanting to hand me like jelly beans and I would have to
8:48
pretend to eat it. I let's be real. Is it because you think
8:54
they're just like kids because you do you see them like wipe their nose.
8:58
Yeah, trust Pike, I find it to be disgusting all of the time.
9:03
You do, but I will just like all grab my kids noses,
9:05
wipe them. Doesn't face me. But I see another kid with a boogie
9:09
and I'm like, yeah, like I can't. Oh yeah, we're so.
9:13
You were sitting last night that came over for a little bit, my
9:15
nephew's. We were watching them for an hour or so, and Lauren and
9:18
my wife and I we both have like our own water you know, what
9:20
do you call them, Stanley's Yeah, your cops, and so THEO thought
9:22
it'd be funny to sit there and just take drinks out of ours, which
9:26
is fine. I mean, the kid's thirsty, go for it. But
9:28
Lauren immediately just start drinking out of hers, and he was like going to
9:31
town on that little straw. Also a little different because your wife she has
9:37
younger siblings, so she's probably a little bit more used to that, I
9:41
guess. But I promise you, Pike, when you have kids, it'll
9:43
be like this weird filter of just don matter everything. Yeah, you just
9:48
tune it out. It's not even not even a thought, well that's good
9:52
because I don't want to be I hate to have kids and then have to
9:56
always leave the house because I'm grossed out. In ninety seven, today's day
10:05
the solar eclipse or will we see it at all with the cloud cover?
10:11
We are of course concerned about James, our afternoon host also contributor of this
10:13
show. He had traveled to Texas, which apparently, you know, it
10:18
was the most likely that there wouldn't be clouds, right, and he's been
10:22
planning this for a year, right, So now he's there and there's just
10:26
clouds all over the state. So we're concerned for him. One that he's
10:28
just probably devastated, you know. So we're trying to get him on the
10:31
phone to see where he's at mentally. He's not answering full disclosure here.
10:35
We've tried to reach out to him. So either he's just lost emotionally,
10:39
or he's still sleeping that or maybe he's truly just like trying to figure it
10:43
out, you know what i mean, Like, if you're going to go
10:45
that far, how close can you get? You know what I mean?
10:48
This is a full on experience, and he he had done it back in
10:52
twenty seventeen, and he was just like describing how wild that moment is right
10:56
changing, he said, he cried. It was so emotional, just like
10:58
the heaviness of it. So, good morning, big notty two point seven.
11:01
My son actually just came through Fargo. He's on his way to Illinois
11:07
for the clips. Oh really, do you know? Is there supposed to
11:09
be cloud coverage there? No, it's perfect. It's sunny. There's no
11:15
clouds there. That's awesome. So he's going to be right in the track.
11:18
Perfect, Oh my god. Perfect. We got to get our guy
11:20
James on the phone. Maybe there's time for him to fly to Indiana or
11:24
Illinois. Yep, are you doing anything for the eclipse? No, but
11:28
he's going to take pictures to send to me. That's awesome. Yeah,
11:31
you guys, have a great day. A man, I've done a little
11:33
research in the last ten seconds. Yeah. And the next total solar eclipse
11:37
won't be until the year two thousand and forty four, Oh boy, which
11:41
is twenty years from now. It's just crazy to think. But then also
11:45
it says that won't even be the entire coast to coast we'll see that twenty
11:48
forty four will only occur over two states. Guess which ones, Texas and
11:56
Nope, Montana and North Dakota. Really that's right, So twenty forty four
12:01
is our year. We're gonna get like, I mean, just get the
12:03
tourism stuff ready to go. Now. Oh my goodness, everybody's gonna be
12:05
coming to North Dakota in twenty forty four for the totality, that's right,
12:09
the full path of it. Ah. I was curious because I was reading
12:13
stuff like, we got a message from our daycare last night that said,
12:16
hey, you don't need to bring outdoor stuff because the kids won't be out
12:20
today. Did they also request your son stop showing as beach. That's been
12:24
really good about that good, but making sure that they put that at the
12:28
end of every email. Make it also ps that they don't have the kids
12:33
outside because of the eclipse, because that's what people are wondering. You always
12:37
talk about how you have to have these glasses. Then I started thinking,
12:39
I'm like, oh my gosh, what about because I could just see myself
12:43
like going home today not realizing it, taking Lula for a walk or letting
12:46
her out, and then how does she react when this is going on?
12:50
Because they're saying, your furry friends, they're gonna get uncomfortable because something eerie
12:54
is gonna feel like it's going on. So they might know. They might
12:56
either like run like it's fireworks pace, hide, grab their like favorite toys.
13:03
Who knows, So you gotta make sure you got it all handled.
13:05
It sounds like they might just end up doing dog stuff, which I wouldn't
13:09
be too concerned about. I will say I've always had this maybe irrational fear
13:13
of going blind because of the eclipse. I think there must have been one
13:18
in like the mid to late nineties when I was young, and I was
13:20
so scared because they told you that, oh, you can only look if
13:24
you're looking through like a piece of paper with a pinhole in it. Yes,
13:26
all of that, and re March twenty seventeen when that one went down,
13:30
I was scared to death. I'm like, oh gosh, I can't
13:33
be outside during this. And so I had this fear always growing up of
13:35
going blind. I was just it was my worst nightmare to go blind,
13:39
and so I thought, well, my brother would be like, oh,
13:41
yeah, I'm going to look through this piece of paper. I'm like,
13:41
I don't want to see it that bad. What are the odds that I
13:45
did the paper thing right now, I'm going to be blind. No,
13:48
not worth it? Not worth it? But did they say that that's like
13:52
kind of a hoax? Hoax? You think it's this big paper trying to
13:58
make a few bucks. I don't the eclipse glasses Amanda in the morning on
14:03
big and now Amanda fills the seat. Let's see, well last night he
14:11
did let the liquor talk you guys. Morgan Walland arrested in Nashville after throwing
14:18
a chair from the rooftop of Eric Churt's new bar keiefs. He has been
14:22
charged with three felon accounts of reckless endangerment, assault with the deadly weapon,
14:26
in a misdemeanor disorderly conduct. A judicial commissioner is about to set his bond.
14:31
I guess he was released at like three point thirty this morning. So
14:35
let me ask you, did the chair hit somebody? Do? We'll assuming
14:39
not because I think that would be I mean, first of all, yeah,
14:43
could have killed. I think it's like the it could have been this
14:45
way and it didn't. I think that would have been the bigger interesting.
14:48
I don't know how you can have an assault charge if you just throw a
14:50
chair into empty space, but tempted. Yeah, I guess I really don't
14:54
know you you just can't. And they said he was seen laughing about it.
15:00
Oh really like it was like a goof rather than like a in a
15:03
rage throwing a chair. So yeah, no, I don't know, man.
15:07
This is a this is sort of a what they call a trend with
15:09
this cat. Yeah, this is not okay at all. And this whole
15:13
family, the situation is wild. We've been keeping up with the Miley Cyrus
15:18
saga. So her little sister Noah was dating her stepdad who now is her
15:22
stepdad. Okay, maybe she was dating the guy who eventually would go on
15:28
to marry her mom, making him her stepdad. It's that's more fun to
15:31
say that. But now do you remember Miley's ex, Liam Hemsworth. Of
15:35
course they haven't been together in a while, but now Noah is like liking
15:41
his posts on Instagram and it's like a thirsty photo of Liam. He has
15:45
no shirt on, he's just kind of looking real sexy, good looking man.
15:48
And that just feels like it's all out of spite, like I'm just
15:50
gonna I'm just gonna, Hey, that's gross. I don't like her.
15:54
There's just too much cross pollination going on here, and there's a lot of
15:58
people not just in the world, but even in your own little city.
16:00
I mean, just please anybody but that right, Gypsy Rose. You know
16:06
her strange husband, Ryan Anderson, Well, he is speaking out about the
16:08
couple. They called it quits. She is still just out gallivanting now with
16:12
her ex, which is just very bizarre. The whole thing is very odd
16:18
to me, but so is this. This is what he had to say.
16:19
You know, I just thank everybody for the support. It's been great.
16:23
I'm just living my life. Guys, y'all. We'll see what really
16:29
happened on Lifetime. Uh. We were filming a lot, so uh,
16:34
stay tuned for that. I hate that we're giving this bozo any sort of
16:38
attention. This guy and then her. It is just and I watch so
16:42
bad to be like, oh my gosh, I'm not gonna watch it,
16:45
but you know, I'll be like one of the first people that'll be too
16:48
main for this. I mean, it's just this guy is first of all,
16:52
got to be weirdo. I mean, come on, I'm sorry,
16:55
but if you're writing letters to somebody in prison marrying them. There's something wrong
17:00
there personality wise. And now he's on lifetime. I should be on lifetime.
17:06
Yeah, this idiot. What would be what would be the reason?
17:10
I don't know, like a low standards documentary, Yeah, kind of like
17:12
a making of the band, behind the scenes of what goes down. Ye
17:17
see. Now that's what people want to see, is like in the morning
17:22
on a big nunty eight point seven. I want to see what you think
17:26
because I think this would have been very helpful growing up had my parents done
17:29
with this. Millennial mom has gone viral for doing charging her three young children
17:34
rent, oh boy, rent, and they are six, eight, and
17:38
nine years old. How are they earning their money? Well, that's that's
17:42
kind of my main question, Like is it your money that you're giving back
17:45
to yourself because it is a okay, it is this mythical thing called an
17:52
allowance. They're getting six dollars a week to be exact. Okay, rent's
17:57
pretty cheap, but that house is then huh ok So every week, I'm
18:00
sorry, every month, on the first of each month, the three kids
18:04
are required to pay one dollar for rent, not a bad deal, a
18:11
dollar for groceries, and one dollar for utilities. This is great. So
18:15
they track it on a budget tracker, how much they're spending, how much
18:18
they have left. They set a dollar aside in an envelope for each of
18:22
the bills. And it's just a great way for them to learn in a
18:26
safe way because you know, if you don't pay rent one month, you're
18:29
not probably getting thrown out, although that I would like to see that done,
18:33
just to really drive the message. Yeah, right, you've picked your
18:37
own six year old. But do you, I mean, are you doing
18:40
anything like this at all in your I mean they're not quite to that point
18:42
yet. Maybe your kids, but yeah, no, I mean we have
18:45
really been trying to teach them savings, like that's kind of our big thing.
18:48
It's like, hey, if they get money, they put it in
18:51
their piggy bank. They started bank accounts over at my kind of bank over
18:55
Like first it's birthday, like that was really really cool. But moving forward,
18:59
it's for us. You just have your chores. They have minimal things
19:03
that they do. They help unload the dishwasher. They know that they have
19:06
to put their laundry in the washing machine, which just like helpful things.
19:10
Oh that's very nice, you know. They they are obsessed with the vacuum
19:12
cleaner. They love vacuuming. Oh yeah, you said that. It's kind
19:17
of crazy. But yeah, anytime they can organize and clean up, go
19:21
for it now. But I'm not. We're giddy. We'll just do like
19:25
that. Okay, now you can have dairy Queen this week or something.
19:29
Well for now, yeah exactly, and eventually though, I like this,
19:32
like starting them young, Like I just had no concept of money until I
19:37
was in college. Honestly, it was so dumb even college, I know,
19:41
same Like, it was not until maybe a year ago that I even
19:45
had a budget, like a spreadsheet with what bills I had. Otherwise I
19:48
was just really eyeball in it. I remember I was going to college in
19:52
Colorado and I had lived with my dad for like the first six months,
19:56
and my mom was way more relaxed when it came to spoiled Me Rod.
20:00
That's just that was the reality of it. It was it is what it
20:03
is. Moved in by my dad and I had an overdraft fee that had
20:08
gone through my account and I didn't know they like sent that home, and
20:12
so my dad had text he called me and it's like, hey, let's
20:15
meet for breakfast. I'm like, oh my gosh, my dad wants to
20:18
meet me for breakfast. That's so sweet. And we're just sitting there talking
20:21
and he just kind of slides over this thing. He's like, Hey,
20:25
you can't live your life like this, and you can't be in debt.
20:27
You always need to have X amount of dollars. You need to do this.
20:30
And I just remember from that moment on that was it. What did
20:34
he slide over the overdraft fee slipt? Yeah, my mind was running wild.
20:40
Oh yeah, but yeah, from that moment on, it was just
20:44
like, you know, you have those like powerful moments in your life.
20:48
I wasn't scared. My dad wasn't like a scary guy. But it was
20:51
just kind of that boy in my head. He was sliding a gun over
20:56
again like a man in the morning on big. I thought this was really
21:03
sweet. I was reading online about a family heirloom that this woman had created
21:07
for her family, and she thought, and now she's an elderly lady,
21:10
so she's kind of getting to that age where you just sort of accepting your
21:14
sort of to put it in golf terms, you're on the back nine.
21:18
Okay, yes, no, I get it. No, it's Master's Week.
21:21
I understand your reference here. I appreciate it. So she wanted to
21:22
leave something for her family for generations to come, and I think that's sweet.
21:26
So what she concocted was a necklace. But you know, each necklace
21:30
has something like a piece, right, and she thought it would be best
21:36
to use one of her toenails as sort of the decorative piece of the necklace.
21:41
As the new family are talking, knock it off that I don't discuss.
21:45
I knew you would love this. Okay, First of all, I
21:48
hate feet, but toenails, and of course everybody's mind just went to and
21:53
I don't care if you're eating breakfast, and I apologize in advance, but
21:57
like a yellow disk dustine thick grandma toenail. Of course, yeah, the
22:03
big and it's the big toe. Oh because what else? And so I
22:07
thought it was great because tonails, as far as I can tell, I
22:11
think they kind of just hold their current state, right. I think they're
22:15
already decayed enough. Got to tell ya, I haven't collected them, so
22:21
I'm not sure the longngevity we've all collected them in you know, like when
22:25
you quit your toenails and you collect them on the arm of the couch for
22:30
justice. Yeah, and then you throw them away. Sure, oh that
22:33
is just so each child, grandkid, whatever, is going to have some
22:37
sort of toenail necklace. You can wear it to school, wear it on
22:40
dates. It's fun to wear things that like have a story. I mean
22:45
that is a that's a talking Yeah, I'm sure. Do you have any
22:48
family heirlooms? Okay, so my grandpa, his mom, so my great
22:53
grandma, she had an entire room full of dulls, like porcelain doll Oh
23:00
creepy. Correct. So a few like granddaughters and every we ended up getting
23:06
them, and I will never forget. Before my grandpa passed, he was
23:10
like giving us these dolls. He's like, here you go, oh grandparents
23:14
will love just yes, giving stuff away. And so I felt I didn't
23:18
want to throw it away. Nick's like we're putting, we're throwing this away,
23:22
like this is creepy. It's creepy as a gross or is it like
23:23
a really nice one? See, in my opinion, there's really no nice
23:27
porcelain dolls. Like I think they're all pretty creepy. It was in the
23:30
box whatever. So underneath our stairs we have like you know, the things
23:34
that you're just like, what do you do with this? Throw it in?
23:37
I have like a couple pieces of like china that I've been given that's
23:41
like just so you know, this is great great grandmas of what. Okay,
23:45
I'm not I'm just not at that place where I'm going to be using
23:48
this one random place. You're never gonna use it. It's just you keep
23:52
it. And so that's where I struggle with that too, because when my
23:56
dad, like when he was still alive, he gave me a lot of
23:59
stuff from his dad. So my grandpa, who yes I didn't really know,
24:02
he died when I think I was six maybe, but it's like a
24:06
jacket that he had from the war, and oh see that's cool. Well
24:10
it is cool and it's not like a military jacket. It's just like it's
24:14
like military color, but it's literally just a winter jacket that they probably issued
24:18
the people in the war got it. And so it's like I don't like
24:21
stuff, you know, I'm real, I guess minimalist, you know,
24:23
like I don't like holding onto things. I throw a lot of things away.
24:26
So it's like a guy threw it away, you know what he's where
24:30
am I supposed to put that. I'm moving all over the place and this
24:33
is where so Land pants out at the lake, Like there's still tons of
24:37
like for my stepdad, my mom stuff is out there. It's like if
24:41
somebody were to ever have them, Like, I don't know what to do
24:44
with all this. It's still like I have all my high school stuff still
24:47
there. I know, when do you throw that too? Well? And
24:49
that's just it. I Nick's parents they every time they come up because they
24:52
are always getting rid of his stuff, like bring us like a box of
24:56
his things. I'm like, oh boy, like where are we gonna put
24:59
all this? But you don't I want to toss it. I get it.
25:02
It is hard. It's hard for I'll tell you this from experience.
25:04
It's hard for like ten minutes and then you just kind of move on.
25:07
Can just move on trending Now, here's what you need to know. South
25:14
Carolina finish off a perfect season with an NCAA championship, beating Iowa eighty seven
25:19
to seventy five. That was their third title in eight years. Caitlyn Clark
25:22
came out firing, dropping eighteen points in the first quarter, which was a
25:26
record for a single quarter in the women's basketball title game. But at the
25:30
end of it, I mean you could just they were pulling away and you
25:33
could just you could feel the pain like it was just like one of those
25:36
like Caitlyn was trying everything she shot just kept missing. And South Carolina's coach,
25:41
of course, very emotional at the end of it. But then when
25:45
she was sitting there talking, she took a moment to really acknowledge Caitlyn.
25:48
And I want to personally thank Caitlyn Clark for lifting up our sport. She
25:55
carried a heavy low for our sport and it just is not gonna stop.
26:00
You're on a collegiate tour, but when she is the number one pick in
26:03
a w NBA draft, she's gonna she's gonna lift that league up as well.
26:07
So so Kaylen Clark, if you're out there, you are one of
26:12
the goats of our games. We appreciate you. That's classy. That was
26:17
really nice here. So I wonder how it will be now that Caitlin's gone.
26:21
Is there gonna be the same interest going forward or is it just gonna
26:23
kind of go back to what it was? No, I hear you the
26:26
same conversation we were having Yesterdom, Like, Okay, am I gonna be
26:30
as involved? Is it gonna be? I mean, is this hype gonna
26:33
roll over? Because all of the girls that we've been following this year,
26:36
that graduating class now going over to the WNBA. Will this spark where it's
26:40
like, hey, now we're like it's that competitive now in WNBA. That
26:44
would be pretty cool. That would be cool. But you've got to have
26:45
stars for people to be interested. It's a lot like to compare it to
26:48
golf in the what the PGA is going through where they're losing all their stars
26:52
to the live tour. It's like, I find myself not really caring unless
26:56
it's the Masters for example this week. So yeah, absolutely, oh today
27:06
his eclipse day. It's finally here. For some it's kind of up.
27:08
Sorry, did you want to did you want to bust it out a little?
27:11
I was saying the Dan Band version. Do you ever see old School?
27:15
Remember that? Yeah? The Dan Band? Yeah, So he throws
27:18
the a tasteful F bomb or two in this song. It's such a good
27:22
jam. But maybe it's just a Monday for you, and it might actually
27:26
just be right here in the FM area because well, the path of totality
27:29
for the eclipse will cover some major cities millions of people. Not all of
27:33
them will have a chance. But here's the problem. There's a lot of
27:36
weather issues. So around twenty million people in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas,
27:40
and Oklahoma they're facing weather forecasts that really could be severe today, so the
27:45
heavy cloud cover. My heart is going out to James right now because our
27:49
afternoon guy a year ago, he had booked this trip. He had seen
27:53
the eclipse like four years ago. Yeah, seventeen, Yes, he said,
27:57
he sobbed it was so beautiful, so we had to go back.
28:00
Yes, So now he's down in San Antonio, Texas. He had mentioned
28:04
about how he they're gonna get in a car and try to find a clear,
28:07
covered spot or clear area so that they can see it. But partial
28:11
eclipse today here in Fargo will be one twenty total eclipse at two thirty.
28:15
Again, you're not supposed to look at it without glasses. Pets may act
28:18
a little weird. We've all seen all this, but today's supposed to be
28:22
rainy and cloudy and you're not going to see anything. Don't think it's gonna
28:25
be another day. I feel bad for him. Like you, Amanda.
28:26
It's much like when I went to Las Vegas to see Blink onin eighty two.
28:30
Totally had that stot. Yeah, the night of the show they canceled,
28:33
and so now it's like, well, okay, I guess I'm still
28:36
in Vegas. So for James, you know, go check the album O
28:38
out, Go get some authentic text mex but just a just a jab for
28:44
sure. Yeah, and Pike, we were just talking about this, Pat
28:47
say, Jack his final Wheel of Fortune episode. I thought it was gonna
28:51
be maybe September. They just released it yesterday, June third, after forty
28:55
years, forty one seasons, that will be it June seventh. Excuse me,
28:57
I said, June third, June seventh, Well, which is it?
29:00
I've got a calary app out right now. Yeah, so he's actually
29:03
going to continue to consult the show for three years. I did not know
29:07
that. You say, June seventh, Yeah, you know what's that day?
29:11
It's Low Standards opening for Eve six. We're gonna have to a DVR
29:15
Wheel of Fortune. I can't can't miss any of all of that. But
29:18
yeah, so this has been on since nineteen eighty three, Pat Vanna and
29:22
now Seacrest is going to be taking over with Pat as a consultant. Do
29:26
you think he's going to be like, Okay, Ryan, when you're when
29:29
you're talking to the contestants, I'm going to need you to be. I
29:32
just would love to know the behind the scenes consulting and how that's going.
29:34
Or that's just them basically giving him a paycheck for a little while longer.
29:37
Yeah, that could be too, who knows. All Right, like I'd
29:40
mentioned today, it is going to be cloudy, rainy, and high forty seven.
