  Speaker 1: Big 98.7.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: I did.
• 0:04
  Speaker 3: That for you, yeah.
• 0:06
  Speaker 4: Yes, thank you.
• 0:07
  Speaker 5: I'm in a fight with Moose and Dave over at
• 0:10
  Speaker 5: the Fox, and they don't know.
• 0:12
  Speaker 6: I was going to say, do they know?
• 0:14
  Speaker 5: No.
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Sounds about like Angie. They're guys.
• 0:17
  Speaker 6: They don't know.
• 0:18
  Speaker 5: Okay, but this was what happened. So yesterday, and we're
• 0:22
  Speaker 5: very friendly with those guys. I love them, and this
• 0:24
  Speaker 5: is why it hurts so much. They walked past our office, Gabe,
• 0:29
  Speaker 5: and they welcomed me back because I had been gone
• 0:32
  Speaker 5: on a little vacation. And so they were asking me
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: questions like, oh, how did it go, blah, blah, blah, whatever.
• 0:36
  Speaker 5: And then I got up to show them some pictures
• 0:40
  Speaker 5: on my phone from the trip.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 0:41
  Speaker 5: So we're standing very close to each other and looking
• 0:45
  Speaker 5: at each other and talking. And then the interaction concludes
• 0:49
  Speaker 5: and I go to the bathroom and I look in the.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: Mirror and I see Gabe. That I had a piece.
• 0:55
  Speaker 5: Of cilantro in my teeth. Like by one of my
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: big old buck teeth, there was this big, huge piece
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: of cilantro.
• 1:04
  Speaker 6: And they said nothing.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: They said nothing.
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: They said nothing. You couldn't miss it. And so I felt.
• 1:10
  Speaker 5: Very betrayed because how do you just let me walk
• 1:14
  Speaker 5: around with a big old chunk of food in my teeth?
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: What do you hate me, Moose and Dave? You want
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: me to walk around embarrassed all day? Why didn't they
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: tell me?
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: Maybe they thought you were saving it for lunch or something.
• 1:25
  Speaker 6: She's saving it for later.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, that's smart. I'm going to try that.
• 1:29
  Speaker 7: No.
• 1:29
  Speaker 8: I don't understand that because there is no way. I
• 1:32
  Speaker 8: would go and tell a complete stranger if they've got
• 1:35
  Speaker 8: something that looks embarrassing that I'd want somebody to tell
• 1:37
  Speaker 8: me about.
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: Okay, yes, that's where my brain is at. So it
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: begs the question, if you see someone... With something in
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: their teeth or like a smudge on their face or
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: something in their hair or their tag pulled.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: Out or their zipper down. Like, do you tell them?
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: And is it like based on familiarity or what? Because
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: I'm in Megan's boat. If it's a stranger, if it's
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: someone I know, I don't want you walking around looking embarrassed.
• 2:01
  Speaker 8: I just I just the other day I saw a
• 2:03
  Speaker 8: gal who is younger and I walked over like, hey, honey,
• 2:05
  Speaker 8: I was like, did you know that you're you're like
• 2:07
  Speaker 8: tag is hanging out this the back?
• 2:09
  Speaker 6: And she's like, no.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: And so.
• 2:11
  Speaker 8: Tucked it in like, okay, I just want to let
• 2:12
  Speaker 8: you know.
• 2:12
  Speaker 6: And I did it very casually. I didn't want anybody
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: else to know about it either.
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a girl's girl. What about you, Gabe, because
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: you've been awfully silent?
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you right now. If you text us here
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: at 701-280-1987 and you say, I always tell someone when
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: they have stuff in their teeth or makeup or their
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: zipper down, I'm going to call you a liar because
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: I guarantee you have watched me walk around the FM
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: area with my zipper down. I am the worst at
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: remembering this damn zipper. And not a soul has one
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: time been like, oh, hey, Gabe, can you?
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: You're assuming we're looking down there.
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: I was going to say, to be fair, your eyes
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: are up there, Gabe. That's where I'd be looking. You're right.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: I don't want you to objectify me.
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: You're right.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: But no, I'm not saying a word unless it's like
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: a friend. If it's a stranger, go live your best life.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Maybe they're doing it on purpose. I don't care if
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: it's a buddy or because I've told Angie before. I've
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: told obviously Corey, but I've been like, oh, hey, you
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: got makeup on your teeth.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: I've said that, but that's someone I know and I'm like,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I'm really cool with. If it's a stranger, I'm not
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: saying a word. Enjoy the rest of your day.
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: Women are so much nicer.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: That's what I was going to say. Do you think
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: it's a gender thing, Megan? Because I feel like it.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: I mean, based on the independent research that just took place,
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Gabe would not tell.
• 3:26
  Speaker 7: No.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Wait a minute. But Moose and Dave didn't tell, but
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: I'm not a stranger.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: And you know what?
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: Here's my thing. They didn't notice.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: They, like, I bet they, if you bring it up
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: to them and be like, why didn't you tell me?
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: They're like, I don't know. I guarantee they were clueless.
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: They didn't even notice.
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: So what you're saying is I was giving them too
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: much credit to begin with.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Exactly. I just wouldn't want to say something to someone
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: and maybe they're trying to do that. Maybe it's a
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: fashion statement or something and they're like, oh, I meant
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: to do that.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: Are you kidding?
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: Now I feel like an idiot.
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: At no point is cilantro in the teeth a fashion statement.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Maybe you got like a stud in there or something
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: and you were doing something the cool kids do.
• 4:04
  Speaker 6: Cilantro and diamonds?
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Way different.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Maybe they thought it was a giant cavity and didn't
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: want to embarrass you.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 4:15
  Speaker 9: 701-280-1987.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Would you want someone to tell you? I don't. Just
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: let me look like an idiot all day. I don't care.
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: From now on, don't worry. We will.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Celebrating life's little victories.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Victory.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Every morning we practice gratitude on Big 98.7. If I could,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: I would.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Keep this feeling in a plastic jar. Bust it out
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: whenever someone's acting hard.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I just really needed a win, you know.
• 4:40
  Speaker 9: Share your little victories with us at 701-280-1987.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Megan, do you have a little victory for us this morning?
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: I do.
• 4:49
  Speaker 8: I was so excited yesterday because I've been... Since last week,
• 4:54
  Speaker 8: I've been dreading how my face looks because when your
• 4:58
  Speaker 8: eyebrows need to get waxed, right?
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: It was embarrassing. I've been trying to hide my eyebrows.
• 5:05
  Speaker 8: They got waxed yesterday, and I just feel like a
• 5:07
  Speaker 8: new woman today.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: Doesn't it feel like a weight off your... Yeah, pretty much.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: They do look very clean.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: Thank you. They're very nice, and I feel like eyebrows
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: can make or break a face, so this is actually
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: like a major victory, and I love this for you.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Thank you. I was in here with Megan all last week,
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: and I'll tell you right now, Megan, I did not
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: notice any poor eyebrow performance out of you, but I'm
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: happy that you're happy.
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: Thank you. I just feel like a new woman. I
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: feel better.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: You're beautiful just the way you are, but I'm glad
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: you feel better. You're so kind.
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: Are you going to ask him for a favor now?
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: What do you want?
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: Why are you buttering up Megan?
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: There might be something on Tuesday I need next week.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 5:49
  Speaker 8: Angie, what's your victory?
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: Last night was the CCRI Halloween Candy Crawl.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: I got to go and.
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: Set up a table for Big 98.7 with one of
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: our co-workers, Elsie.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: She was Rapunzel from Tangled.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Yay.
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: So I was Mother Gothel.
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: And let me tell you, those little kiddos prefer Rapunzel.
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: They don't like the villain?
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: Mother Gothel's evil.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: But it was really fun to see all of the
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: trigger treaters and everything. And what was cool is there's
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: several different tables, different themes.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: But there were competing things. Uno-themed tables. Really?
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: Yes. How has that even happened?
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: I had seen, we were set up next to one
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: of the Unos, but then, you know, I walked around.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: I had to walk around and see what everybody's table was.
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: You could vote.
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: You could vote on your favorite table. And so when
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: I went toward the back, I saw another Uno table.
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: I was like, competing Uno tables.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: And they were like, I know, we didn't know.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: But.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: The second Uno table I saw, they listen to Big.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: 98.7 every morning. So I was like, you guys are
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: winners in my book.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: That's right. That is right.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Love it.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: But it was really good. It was such a fun event.
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: And I hope we get to do it again next year.
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 7:11
  Speaker 7: Heck yeah.
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: That's a good time.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: My little victory. Do you remember yesterday we were talking
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: about the boo buckets at McDonald's?
• 7:16
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Yes. Which is wonderful. I hope everyone gets a bucket.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: But I was upset because my line was going to
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: be long for me to go get my Monopoly pieces.
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: I went yesterday to McDonald's at 4.55, right before that
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: 5 o'clock just dreadful line you have to wait in.
• 7:33
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: I didn't have to wait for a single car. It
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: was wonderful. I got there right before the long line.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: I drove in, gave them my little code from the app,
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: went around the corner, grabbed my food, and I was
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: out of there in like four minutes.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: Oh, I love that.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Oh, it was incredible.
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: There's nothing better than getting through the drive-thru line quickly.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: Magical. And then I got home and realized I wasn't
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: a millionaire, so I'm back here with you guys today.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: Today's variety. It's big 98.7 morning show. We got sunshine
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: and 68 today. Have you ever spent so much time
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: looking for a movie on your 17 streaming services that
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: by the end of it, you're like, I'm done.
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: This is a daily occurrence at my house. And it's
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: always because we're trying to find something that's also kid
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: friendly and And then I like to watch.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: The same thing over and over. I think that says
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: something about me. Meanwhile, the kids are like, we never
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: watch something new.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: So then it's this whole thing and we're scrolling forever.
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: And then it's like, you know what? I don't know.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: How to say that in English. Everybody out the car.
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: No one's going. That's how the phrase goes. Which is
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: because now no one's watching anything and we turn off
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: the TV.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Just go to bed.
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: Like we're done.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: Well, I learned that. And this is kind of heartbreaking,
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: but in a year, you waste 110 hours. looking for
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: something to watch on all these streaming services and this
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: is a real thing it is called streaming fatigue and
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: it is exactly what you just described where you scroll
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: and you're like oh yeah that might be cool but
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: there might be something better down the line and then
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: you just get so tired of not being able to
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: pick something you eventually just don't do anything you shut
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: the tv off and go sit in your bean bag
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: naked eating cheetos oh.
• 9:24
  Speaker 8: I've never done that so specific before.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: Oh, sorry.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: Just me then.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just you.
• 9:29
  Speaker 9: Just you.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:31
  Speaker 8: Oh, honestly, within like the first few minutes, if I
• 9:34
  Speaker 8: don't find something, I'm like, no, I'm going to, you
• 9:35
  Speaker 8: know what? I can do something more productive and I
• 9:37
  Speaker 8: go and do whatever.
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: I really wish I could be more productive.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because I will do exactly that. Hop on the
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: phone and not pay attention to anything around me. Well,
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: I have learned that 110 hours, it's about four and
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: a half days, a tiny bit longer.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: What?
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: We spend four and a half days a year A year.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: Just doing this?
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: Rolling.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I have learned some things that in theory
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: you could do in about 110 hours. Listen to the
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: entire Harry Potter audiobook series, which is about 117 hours.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: So you could almost do every single book.
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: I love them.
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: That is productive.
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it is very productive.
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: That's time well spent. Okay, I like that.
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: You could learn the basics of a new language. Many
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: programs say 100 or so hours gets you to the
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: conversational basics.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: I could.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: You could. But will I? But will you?
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: Is there a different option? What else can we do?
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Well, you could learn to play guitar or piano well
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: enough to play, you know, a handful of real songs.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: 110 hours of practice goes a long way.
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: Okay, so back.
• 10:45
  Speaker 8: In COVID when I was sitting around doing nothing, I
• 10:48
  Speaker 8: did try to teach myself guitar.
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: Turns out I need someone else to teach me.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Oh, there you go.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: I got you covered. Yeah, Gabe can play.
• 10:56
  Speaker 7: Okay. Okay.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: And this one is, I think, well, these last two
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: are the craziest. You could walk about 330 miles. That
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: is roughly from Fargo to Minneapolis.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Nope.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: So instead of doing all that scrolling, get to stepping.
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I would get so many stats.
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: I'd be so skinny.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: And then finally, this is the heartbreaker. You could sleep
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: an extra 20 minutes every morning for a year.
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: Okay, now that.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: That is the one that breaks my heart. It's like,
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: oh man.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: I'm disgusted with myself.
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: I need more sleep, like stat.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: There is this mother who's gone viral as she has
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: spent 80 hours building her four-year-old a working refrigerator costume
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: out of recycled cardboard.
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: I love this mom.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: So not just... A cardboard costume that looks like a refrigerator. No,
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: this thing works. It has handmade cardboard groceries inside, wheels,
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: and it even dispenses water and ice.
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: Is she a scientist?
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was going to say, she's an engineer.
• 12:04
  Speaker 8: Right?
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: I'm sort of like, wow.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, her son asked to be a fridge after seeing
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: one at Home Depot.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: Ha ha ha!
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: I love kids.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: I love this entire family.
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: Not the one at home, because everybody's got a fridge.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, no.
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: The one at home, I want to be that fridge.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: That's a real guy's guy right there. He saw a
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: fridge and went, now that's the one.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: Yep. I think that's beautiful.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: It's so cool. I wanted to know, what's the most
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: elaborate Halloween costume you've ever pulled off? You could even
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: add in if you want, like how many hours it took.
• 12:36
  Speaker 8: 701-280-1900.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: Eight seven because i have never spent more than 50
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: minutes on a halloween costume and i did that one
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: time i.
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: Was just thinking that's impressive 50 minutes for.
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: A guy for a guy yeah what about you megan
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: because i've seen some of your costumes.
• 12:52
  Speaker 8: You like oh you do the thing i try i
• 12:54
  Speaker 8: would say probably one of my more elaborate was uh
• 12:58
  Speaker 8: maleficent from sleeping beauty yes because more of the makeup.
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: And putting on some of the costume.
• 13:05
  Speaker 8: I will say, at the time, I had just Mozzie,
• 13:07
  Speaker 8: and when I put the horns on, he literally barked
• 13:10
  Speaker 8: at me until I took them off. Oh, yes.
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, Maleficent is such a villain. I think that's
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: so impressive, though. I go all out for Halloween costumes,
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: but anything that has to do with doing for real,
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: legit makeup and whatever, that's really difficult for me, so
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: I'm very.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Impressed by that.
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: It wasn't great, but I mean, I.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: Got it done, I guess.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: No!
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: Oh, that was great.
• 13:31
  Speaker 8: Okay, Angie, but you're like the queen of costumes and ideas.
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: What was your most elaborate?
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: I was trying to think back, and I would have
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: to say probably last year for Crawloween, which, by the way,
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: fourth annual Crawloween this Halloween, Saturday, October 31st.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: So get to working on those costumes.
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: Last year for Crawloween, I was man about to lose
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: Christmas tree farm unless marketing exec cutie comes home for
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: the holidays and saves the day.
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: Was it the costume or the name that was elaborate?
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: Both.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Both.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: But inspired by my love of Hallmark Channel Christmas movies.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: But this one, it's because I had to.
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: Really show that I was a Christmas tree farmer. So
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: I had like a little sapling. I had three past
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: due bills because, you know, I was going to.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: Lose the farm.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Those were the easiest items to get. You just went
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: to your mail.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Just kidding.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: Anyway, he clocked me.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: No.
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: And I had like a little name tag. I had
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: to do the work boots and like the gloves and everything.
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: And then, of course, I said, man, who whatever. So
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: I had to tuck all of that.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: I have so much hair.
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: So I had to tuck all of it into like
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: a beanie thing and then also give myself. Well, I
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: have a base of facial hair for sure. But then
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: I had to add to that. So that one probably
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: was the one that took me the most time to
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: like put together.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: And then coming up with the ridiculous name because I
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: was like, how do I describe what this is?
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: The best name ever.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: We do have Heidi on the phone. Heidi, what was
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: your costume?
• 15:09
  Speaker 7: One year, I dressed up as a haunted porcelain doll.
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: I spent furry hours doing cracked face makeup. I wore
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: creepy white contacts, and I had this old Victorian dress
• 15:18
  Speaker 7: that I found at a thrift store. I even practiced
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: walking like a doll at night. I scared so many
• 15:24
  Speaker 7: people that one guy actually refused to take a picture
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: with me.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: I love that.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: See? And the cracked makeup. Like, I could never do
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: something like that. That's so impressive.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: Heidi was doing calisthenics to get her costume correct. Good
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: for you, Heidi. Terrifying. My most elaborate Halloween costume. So
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: the actual costume was very simple, but funny enough, it
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: was the makeup that took forever, but... I just had on,
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: you know, the basic black onesie for adults that has
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: the skeleton arms.
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: Well, I had this friend in my mid-20s who was
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: a theater major and knew how to do makeup really well.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, yes.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: And they loaded my face up. Like, you see when
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: you go into restaurants and they have the crazy skeleton
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: face makeup paintings in there?
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: It was so good. And the idea was from James Bay,
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: who we play here on Big 98.7.
• 16:12
  Speaker 8: Oh, yeah.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: He performed on Halloween in that outfit once. And I
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: went and played a show at this restaurant in Winona, Minnesota.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: And I wanted to look like James Bay in the video.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: So I had the skeleton paint, the hat and the full.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: This is adorable.
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: I need to see pictures now.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: It didn't happen. That's amazing. I love that.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: I will get one for you here.
• 16:33
  Speaker 9: 701-280-1987.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: What's the longest you've ever spent? or the most elaborate
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Halloween costume you've ever tried to make, which, once again,
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: you could be using for the fourth annual Crawlloween presented
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: by High Noon and Fireball Torch Vanilla coming up in
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: downtown Fargo on the 31st.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Drop it, drop it. Big 98.7. This is Am I
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: the Problem?
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: It's me.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: I'm the problem, it's me. We'll hear one side of
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: the story and with your help. I am not the problem.
• 17:03
  Speaker 9: Decide if it's right or if maybe you're the problem.
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: I am the problem. On Big 98.7.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: We had Summer write in to us. Hi, guys.
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: Since Megan and Gabe have pets but Angie doesn't, I
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: figured you guys are good to ask this to and
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: also all the people listening. I was dating a guy
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: for three months and he broke up with me over
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: pet hair. Yup, pet hair. I have two dogs and
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: a cat and the pet hair is a bit much.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: But I carry a lint brush with me everywhere I
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: go and vacuum my place twice a day. I stay
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: on top of it as much as I can because it's.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Not like I love pet hair all over the place.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: But the other day, after this guy realized there was
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: some cat hair on his new bison hoodie, he flipped out.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: I thought he was kind of joking at first, but nope.
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: He said he just can't take all the pet hair
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: everywhere all the time and that this just isn't going
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: to work out.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Is that real? No.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: Do you think pet hair is.
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: An actual deal breaker or was he just looking.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: For an out? Let us know what you think.
• 18:18
  Speaker 7: 701-280-1987.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: We also have this up on the Big 98.7 Facebook page.
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: Okay. You don't want to be with that guy anyway.
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: If he doesn't want your pets, like whatever.
• 18:30
  Speaker 8: And also the fact that you vacuum twice a day
• 18:33
  Speaker 8: is the most impressive thing I've ever heard a pet
• 18:36
  Speaker 8: parent ever do.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: There is nothing I do for my pets twice a day.
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Ever.
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: I don't even feed them twice a day. They get
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: it once a day.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: Do you think that this is like for the guy,
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: because you guys do have pets. Do you think like
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: that's a fair deal breaker or.
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: Do you think he was probably lying?
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: I think he was just looking for an out. And
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: that just happened.
• 18:58
  Speaker 8: Like, I can see where you might get annoyed with Petfur,
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: but if he really liked.
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: Her and really cared about her, that would not be
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: the deal breaker right there.
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: That was his nice way of saying, I just don't
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: like your personality. No, it could also be maybe he
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: just didn't like the pets, but he knows he sounds
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: like a monster if he says that. Like, actually, your
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: two dogs, I really kind of just hate them. And
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: your cat's the worst. So that sounds terrible. So yeah,
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: I'm going to blame the pet hair.
• 19:26
  Speaker 6: Cause they probably hate him too.
• 19:28
  Speaker 8: Okay.
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: Either way, this sounds like a complete lie.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: That's so funny. I have the opposite.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: I don't have pets, but I'm someone who gets really
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: icked out by hair, like pet hair, other people's hair,
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: my own hair, even like I hate when I shed
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: cause I'd be shedding.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: And you find it in the shower.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: And it grosses me out.
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: So I, if I were dating someone and it was
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: just pet hair, even.
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: If it– I mean I appreciate the trying. But if
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: I'm finding.
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: Pet hair all the time, I probably would break up.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: I mean, it was only three months. It's not like
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: it was a year of dating.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: I don't necessarily think.
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: Summer, if I had to guess, I think that maybe
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: he just really can't stand... Pet hair, and that's the thing.
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: But meanwhile, Gabe and Megan think that your personality is
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: the problem, and that's why he left.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: No, I'm kidding.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: I'm kidding.
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: I didn't say that. I said he said that.
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: That's right. Put the words in his mouth, not ours.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: Okay, what do you think? 701-280-1987. Maybe you've been in.
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: A similar situation, and you could shed some light. We
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: also have this up on the big 98.7 Facebook page.
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: You did a dad joke right there.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: You got the shed thing too?
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, that was an accident. Let us know
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: what you think this morning at 701-280-1987.
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: Summer wants to know if you think the guy that
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: broke up with her after three months was just looking
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: to get out or if it was a valid reason
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: to break up because he didn't like that she always
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: had a bunch of pet hair everywhere.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: She has some pets.
• 21:10
  Speaker 8: And she vacuumed twice a day and had lint rollers. Girl,
• 21:13
  Speaker 8: you are above and beyond as a pet parent.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: Today's Wednesday, right? I haven't vacuumed once this week.
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: I did once this month.
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: And that was this week.
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: And I have a dog and cats.
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: I've got two of the airiest little beasts you've ever seen.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: I've contributed zero. You know what I did? I turned
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: on the robot vacuum. That's what I did.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: Oh, there you go.
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: Okay, so Gabe and Megan, they contend that he was
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: just looking for an out. because pet hair shouldn't really
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: be a deal breaker. I think, Summer, you're probably a delight,
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: and really it was the pet hair was the deal breaker,
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: but that's based on that it would be a deal
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: breaker for me. So we do have some comments on
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: the Facebook page, right, Gabe?
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: Yes, we also do have some texts here, like this
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: one from Jenna from West Fargo. She said... she's kind
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: of uh she's really kind of going after the guy
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: here she said pet hair is not a deal breaker
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: it's a lint roller problem he was done with her
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: and found an excuse run summer you dodged one very
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: guy here to not just be like you know what
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: i just don't think this is working out you'll find
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: anything else anything else to get out of something you're
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: too afraid to do yourself.
• 22:26
  Speaker 8: Crystal puts up a great point over on our Facebook page.
• 22:30
  Speaker 8: You can't trust a person who doesn't like animals.
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: OK, that is also fair because I'm not trustworthy.
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: No, I'm kidding. You like animals.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: No, I do.
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: I love animals.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: It's just the pet hair for me would be.
• 22:45
  Speaker 7: I get it.
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: But he'd been with her for three months and he's
• 22:47
  Speaker 6: been dealing with it from the get go.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. Because if it were me by day three,
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: I'd be like, I can't do it. I can't do it.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: I can't. The hair is grossing me out.
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: That I can see.
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 22:55
  Speaker 6: You've been going. It's been going on for three months.
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: Okay, so I feel like now maybe I am changing
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: my hair.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: We're bringing her.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: Over to the furry side. Brittany over in Moorhead said,
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: if you vacuum twice a day and carry a lint brush,
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: you're doing more than most people. That's not about hair.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: That's about him. And I'll tell you what, you are
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: doing way more than most people. And by most people,
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: I mean Megan and I here on And we have
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: Ashley in Moorhead as well. She said, honestly, this is
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: a deal breaker. She's on the other side. I'm a
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: clean freak and I couldn't do it either. It's about
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: lifestyle and that's okay. And that is true. Sometimes compatibility
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: just isn't it, which is exactly what Renee said in
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: South Fargo. He could have been nicer, but she knew
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: she had three animals. Compatibility matters and sometimes it just
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: doesn't match.
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: Nicer or just more honest?
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, just we're out of summer.
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: I think what you can take away from this is
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: that you're an excellent pet parent in terms of picking
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: up all that hair.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: Which is a great quality.
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and that you're just better off without him anyway.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Bye. Starting off the day with something good.
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: This is Gabe's Good News on Big 98.7.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Today we have a great adventure story about this Irish
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: man named Ken who wanted to drive a yellow school
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: bus across America since he was eight years old after
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: seeing them on Simpsons and South Park. Take a listen
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: to this, dude.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: I'm Irish. I'm over here to drive this yellow school
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: bus across the states of America.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: I've wanted to do.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: It since I'm like eight years of age.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: I wanted to do.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: This and I'm a tour guide back home in Ireland
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: and I met this wonderful woman, Jane, and she basically
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: made my dream come true by telling me that she
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: has an RV.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: Well, Ken got a taste of Fargo with his first
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: bison tailgate.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: He had his first shot ski and his first football game.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Now he's off to Yellowstone.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: He's got to go to Oregon, San Diego, Mardi Gras
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: in New Orleans.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, right.
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: Even his skeptical mom, who thought there had to be
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: some catch with this bus, crocheted Jane, who you heard
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: him mention, a blanket as a thank you. What an
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: adventurous dude.
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: Okay, the fact that at eight years old, that was
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: his goals. I love it. And now he's making it happen.
• 25:25
  Speaker 6: I love it so much.
