Well, there's a new trend out there, Amanda that if you would consider
0:04
yourself a lazy girl, a lazy girl, I don't think so. I
0:09
mean I wish I was a lazy girl sometimes because I was just sexy.
0:13
My husband, I'm my gosh, can't wait to see the family. It's
0:16
just been one of those busy weeks, you know, where you're just like
0:18
NonStop. I know, we got together for Halloween and all that, but
0:21
life's crazy. Well, I mean, maybe you need to find yourself what
0:24
they're calling a lazy girl job. Now, it's becoming more and more popular
0:29
for women everywhere. I mean, this has gone viral. Excited about this,
0:32
hearing it. It's a whole viral TikTok trend. Lazy girl jobs where
0:35
women who are burnt out of their current job, which is a very high
0:38
percentage, even higher than men. According to the survey, twenty five percent
0:42
of men say they're burnt out, but women it's a staggering sixty nine percent
0:46
of all personages. Really yeah, so they're finding the jobs that basically require
0:51
the least possible work. For a lot of women, these jobs aligned with
0:54
their goals and purpose while also enabling them to achieve that infamous work life balance,
1:00
got it lazy girl job? So obviously, to be fair, there's
1:03
a lot of people that probably think I have a lazy girl job. And
1:07
except for the people that go, do you really wake up at three thirty
1:11
am every single day? And I still see you at six o'clock at night
1:15
and you're still just go, go, go, go go. I mean
1:17
that's the toll of this job, you know, is where you're not many
1:21
lazy people are getting up at three thirty correct, Yes, yes, yes,
1:23
yes, But I feel like it also offers a very good work life
1:26
balance, sure, I mean going to the grocery store at two in the
1:30
afternoon when nobody else is there. My husband would differ when he says,
1:34
I can't deal with these attitudes and wiping up dog poop every morning much longer.
1:38
And your daughter, he's saying this right now, yep, is throwing
1:42
a fit over these boots. Oh no, well, what's wrong with the
1:46
boots? I think she wants to wear them in their new boots. She's
1:49
not supposed to wear them to school. They're supposed to be for special occasions.
1:52
Holiday boots. You got your daughter holiday boots now again? Man?
1:57
I hate to give you any parent that's a person, have any kids,
2:00
But do we need the holiday boots? Okay, so it's just a long
2:07
term what kind of what kind of adult do you become when you grew up
2:09
with holiday boots? Let's think about it for a second. I mean they're
2:15
specially okay, Okay, you just imagine somebody you just know the type.
2:23
Oh my god, she's totally holiday boots king. Yeah, oh gosh,
2:29
I get it. I get it. I get it. Anyway, Honey,
2:31
that's your holiday hat. What do you do? What do you think?
2:34
Are you crazy? Well, there's just things that you don't wear every
2:37
day, Pike. Maybe holiday boots wasn't the right choice of work. I
2:40
get like having you know, a nice outfit or whatever for special you know,
2:44
like a funeral suit or you know, I got one suit I wear
2:46
to weddings or whatever, but got yes boots for a four year old?
2:52
Okay, fine, I get it anyway. Right anyway, So going back
2:54
to the lazy girl situation where it's, yeah, it sounds like your husband
2:59
is just going through it and here you are just working. So find yourself
3:00
a lazy girl job in his life that he's doing, right, now find
3:04
a job that you start at ten am. And this is not me trying
3:06
to push you out. That sounds like you are anybody anybody want to wake
3:09
up with three thirty and work with bike? What a treat? Give me
3:13
even an example of what kind of job that would be that's actually giving you
3:17
money. Well, I mean that's the that's the trade off. I think
3:22
not many lazy girl jobs aren't pain. Yeah, you're not gonna be buying
3:25
holiday boots from a lazy girl job, like anday in the morning, Big
3:29
nainety eight point seven, Yesterday was not so lovely, Amanda. I don't
3:31
know if pathetic is the right word to use for where we've come as a
3:37
civilization. Oh boy, but I sure felt pathetic yesterday. I got home
3:42
in the afternoon and I had gotten email that the power was out at our
3:46
place. That's a bummer, right, So they're doing some work whatever happens,
3:49
And so I'm like, going, well, I can put up with
3:50
it, for you know, I just got a few hours here to kill
3:52
before we got to go to Winos. Well, then I realized my phone
3:54
is at one percent. So as I get home, literally as I'm walking
3:59
in the door, what were you do eat on the phone that it was
4:00
at one percent. There's none of your business, and that's that's crazy all
4:04
in itself. Anyway, my screen time is impressive. If you saw my
4:10
weekly reports, you would be impressed. I hate when you get the weekly
4:14
report. Nothing makes me like you look at it like, oh no,
4:16
please tell me I was down from last week? Like, is there is
4:19
there? Was I even awake for that many hours? How is that even
4:23
possible? So I get home and well, of course one percent, it
4:26
turns to zero percent. I got the black screen as I'm walking in the
4:30
door. Done don dunnah. And imagine you're in this situation. I'm in
4:33
an apartment with no power, there's no TV, Amanda, my phone is
4:38
off. Literally I'm in the wild West. It sounds pretty relaxing, is
4:43
that right? Yeah? You just snuggled right up and fell asleep, right,
4:46
couldn't. I can't fall asleep if I don't have one a fan,
4:49
if I I have to be listening to something a podcast, I have to
4:53
have the TV on. So then that's my first realization is I'm tired,
4:57
but I can't sleep. Wow, because I heard anxiety as through the roof.
5:00
I'm shaking. I feel like I'm like just in a third world country.
5:04
I mean, really realizing how pathetic I've become. I was gonna say,
5:08
do you know how ridiculous you sound right now? You know? Is
5:11
this an hour? It was three hours of the long. It felt like
5:14
an eternity. I now know what it's like to be in prison, and
5:16
not just a normal prison, but like in isolation. Okay, solitary confined,
5:21
That's what it was. And how many times I went up and like
5:24
pressed the power button on the TV? How much? How many times I
5:27
flipped my phone over a man? I didn't even know what time it was?
5:31
My wife? Is that is brutal? My wife gets home, she
5:34
opens the door. I had to have looked like somebody who had been missing
5:39
for years and they finally found him. I'm shaking money, and my first
5:43
thing I opened my eyes and go, what time is it? I literally
5:46
had no I knew I had to be somewhere at four. I'm like,
5:48
is it six o'clock right now? Three o'clock? The man of the Sun,
5:53
I can't tell I get a man in the morning. Ninety seven George
5:58
Jason, I have so many promises growing up of you know, flying houses
6:03
and flying cars. Don't you remember it feeling like we were just right there.
6:09
If you would have told me in nineteen ninety eight, as I was
6:11
sitting in my basement watching WWF Plane Nintendo that by twenty twenty three we wouldn't
6:16
have flying cars, I'd just said, you're crazy, you see, And
6:20
to me it's the opposite. I feel like we don't need that. We
6:25
already have enough crazy technology and stuff going on. I don't know, Amanda,
6:29
just trying to hold back civilization. I know I'm crazy. Well here's
6:32
the old school. I don't know why we're not with horse and buggies.
6:38
Well that's not a bad option either. Well, much to Amanda's disdain,
6:44
the California company has created a UFO like model of a vehicle that yes flies,
6:50
Really are you laying down in this bad boy? Or how does it
6:54
work? No, it's looking like a normal cart. Now it's really cool
6:57
in futuristic looking. The vehicle is almost like sea, except for the part
7:00
that you're in. Now. It's seventeen feet long, fits in most garages.
7:03
They say the cost is going to be about two hundred and eighty six
7:08
thousand dollars. But this company wowed everybody recently in Detroit. They have their
7:13
car industry show. Okay, and so they made this big reveal. Now
7:16
they say this vehicle, it's still not the final consumer version, the one
7:19
that will be driving, not you, Amanda, no no, but at
7:23
this point they say it is pretty close. First of all, they say
7:26
that this would basically give you the option to drive on land like normal.
7:30
Yeah. But then let's say you're in like a traffic jam situation. So
7:32
how does this work? Though? This is what I've never understood, because
7:36
how are you going to take off? Do you need a certain amount of
7:41
like landing strip? Was he tarmac takeoff area? Or does it just go
7:46
right up in the air? Correct? Yeah, it's not like you need.
7:48
It's not like an airplane here. So that's one question. You'll be
7:51
able to Basically in a traffic jam, you just I'm guessing, hit a
7:54
button and you like lift up, you go up, so you're on.
7:57
You're a rocket sort of like a drone. It operates much like a drone
8:01
where you can quickly maneuver. Now, the big question in my concern is
8:05
howy spin Who's regulating what's going on in this in the air well, that's
8:09
just it. I don't see the FAA approving this ever. And then also
8:13
the police. So now the police should be the first ones that have flying
8:16
cars, right, think about just the other day, I'm on nine ninety
8:20
four, here's an ambulance comment in people for some reason in the Year of
8:22
Our Lord twenty twenty three. Still don't understand that you need to get out
8:26
of the way. No, I'm an emergency. Yes, Oh, it's
8:28
not actually going to come this way. I'm not am I in the way?
8:33
Oh you're trying to get around me. See there. I would be
8:35
completely on board with it. But then also you had mentioned seventeen feet you
8:39
can park it in your garage. Why would you want it in your garage
8:41
if you can just I just have it floating outside of my house. What
8:45
I mean? It has a battery life, they say it only lasts.
8:48
You can go two hundred miles on ground in one hundred and ten miles in
8:50
air in flight distance. Okay, So can you just set it on top
8:54
of your house? Well, if you want, but you know, I
8:56
don't know. I just want a nice clean garage. Did you get into
8:58
a walm car this morning? Sure? Did? Good point pretty nice,
9:01
right. I'm guessing they have that figured out as well. And I don't
9:05
know though, because it's colder. As you go up, well how high
9:07
are you going to go? The higher you go, you don't need to
9:09
get that high. You just need to get above the vehicles. But then
9:13
once you get up in the air, first of all, people don't know
9:15
how to drive on land. Now we're going to be up in the air.
9:16
Wait, who's going to regulate that? Sounds like you're gonna have to
9:20
take a course. And this leads me back to we just got to get
9:24
back to the horse and buggy pals. She loves old technology, just loves
9:28
old stuff. Already ready Let's see is typing hot today? And now Amanda
9:35
stills the sea Let's see. Britney Spears is officially a best selling author.
9:41
Her book already sold one point one million copies in the first week. She
9:46
jumped down to Twitter yesterday and said, thank you all. It means a
9:50
world to me that you guys are supporting me. I poured my heart and
9:52
soul into this book and I am so grateful to my fans and readers around
9:56
the world for their unwavering support. I also love it the media is just
10:01
leaning into the fact that Justin Timberlake fled the country to go to Mexico.
10:05
Have you seen this? Did he really he went to Mexico with his family.
10:09
It could have been a planned vacation, but they're acting like he fled
10:11
the country. The last report I saw, he's been locked on his phone
10:15
the whole vacation. I mean, come on, locked on it really like
10:18
he can't get enough of the feedback or what because I think I might turn
10:22
the phone off? Yeah, Or do you think he's like on the phone
10:24
with this publicist probably like gosh, where am I going to go from here?
10:28
I think it's all just a fake story. I think in a week
10:33
we'll probably have forgotten about it, and then he'll come out and he'll be
10:35
fine and enjoy Mexico. Yeah. Right. And there are also a lot
10:41
of people breaking down Travis Kelsey's finances. So he makes about thirty million dollars
10:45
or I guess he's worth thirty million dollars. But since he's been dating Taylor
10:48
Swift instantly you're living in a totally different lifestyle. That's just the reality of
10:52
it. It's crazy to think that somebody with thirty million dollars is you know,
10:56
the lesser. You know, I can't afford certain things that the other
10:58
person can. Well, there are people going over the fact that not only
11:01
did he used to be a frat boy, that's kind of the way they're
11:05
referring to his lifestyle before he met Taylor. I mean, he's a single
11:09
guy in the NFL, like doing your whole lot. You're at the stadium
11:11
or the practice facility, the whole the all day. So it's like,
11:15
who cares he just go home and crash. You're just doing your thing right,
11:16
And let's be fair, his pad that he was crashing in pre Taylor
11:22
Swift is probably nicer than most of our homes, to be one hundred percent
11:24
fair. Probably not the nicest home in Fargo, but you know, like
11:26
a decent home out you know, south of fifty second Avenue something like that.
11:31
Maybe, well he did get that new place, and they're saying he's
11:35
been about fifty five percent of his annual salary to get this new pad.
11:39
I guess keep his privacy a little bit as well. But people have to
11:43
remember Travis Kelsey, even before Taylor Swift was becoming famous in front of the
11:48
world with the super Bowl, all of those things, so she just added
11:52
a lot to it. I just don't think he's going to be in financial
11:56
ruins because he's also making a ton of money. He's on every commercial.
12:00
It feels like totally now his career is almost over. So you got a
12:03
plan for the rest of your life, which hopefully is many, many years.
12:07
But I totally get it. You know, sometimes we're trying to impress
12:09
a lady. You spend money you don't have. I mean, like again,
12:13
early twenties, spiking how many time my card got declined at the old
12:15
Broadway trying to buy around the shots because that was a big, big,
12:18
big work in radio. Game you were you were hoping for the two dollars
12:22
you call it night. You're telling me the penny deal is over at nine.
12:28
I take it back. I take it back. Everybody, come to
12:31
my house, guys, my card's now where it must be a machine issue.
12:35
I got money, I promise I do. I just bought gas,
12:39
like oh, oh, oh gosh. Matthew Perry's death was not the effect
12:43
of fetanol or meth overdose. We do know that. Of course, it's
12:46
still going to be about three or four months before they can tell us exactly
12:48
how it all went down. In other news, I loved this story so
12:52
much. John Stayle's paid tribute to Matthew Perry on Instagram yesterday, hearing a
12:56
scene from the ninth season of Friends where he just showed up on the set
12:58
as ah, what's the word I'm looking for? Not an extra, not
13:03
an extra, but just uh special guest. Exactly, thank you, So
13:09
he said, I'm standing backstage ready to make my entrance, and Matthew Perry
13:13
whispers, the audience is going to go crazy when they see you. Get
13:16
ready for loud screams. I walked through the door, silent nothing. I
13:22
was so embarrassed, John Stamos says. I recall Matthew Perry just kind of
13:28
looking at me. As soon as I was done, I walked off.
13:31
He said, we finished the scene. I was ready to quit showbiz.
13:33
He walks over to the studio audience and Matthew Perry said, ladies and gentlemen,
13:39
give it up for John Stamos. You guys probably didn't recognize him for
13:41
at first, because well, he's much better looking in person. I never
13:46
forgot that, and the world will never forget you. What a sweet thing.
13:50
I know, I forgot what episode Stamos was on on Friends. I
13:52
know you weren't a big fan. No, this does not just because of
13:56
that, but after years now, even since reunion, I've got to at
14:01
least take a peek. Absolutely, And it reminds me of this whole thing
14:03
with Matthew Perry. He was the one who got Bruce Willis to do his
14:07
whole guest appearance on the show. He was a character. Yeah, because
14:11
apparently they weren't a movie together. I forget the name of it. It
14:13
was the longest, not the longest anyway. He basically made a bet with
14:18
Bruce Willis said, Hey, this movie is going to be a success,
14:20
and if it is, you got to come on our show for free.
14:24
And Bruce will Is like, yeah, this movie is gonna be terrible.
14:26
Oh that's really cool. That funny like a minute in the morning on Big
14:31
Nutty eight points seven. You suspected thing when you hear that telephone room by
14:39
friend looks lucky number. This lesson by freend Sunny again arrested bags. We
14:48
got an Instagram message from a woman who said her husband she put in charge
14:52
of the candy this year for Halloween to hand out to the kids, you
14:54
know. Yeah, and I guess he went totally cheap, like super generic
14:58
stuff stuff she's never even heard. It. Sounds like this guy is deserving
15:01
of this one, I think. So. All right, all right,
15:05
let's get serious. Sorry, Hello, Hey, is this Josh? Yeah,
15:13
this is Josh. Hey, Josh, Detective Kneecaps down here at the
15:16
Fargo Police Department. Mind if I ask you a couple of questions? Sure,
15:22
what's up? Hey, I'm investigating a string of illnesses that's arisen in
15:28
your neighborhood, specifically regarding some sick children. Ring a bell, some sick
15:33
children. I haven't heard of anything, but what's going on? Well,
15:37
in short after Halloween night, there were several reports of children feeling ill,
15:43
and we have reason to believe it may be because of some low grade,
15:46
cheap candy that may or may not have been given out on your block.
15:52
Really, you've narrowed it down to my block. I have reason to believe.
15:56
Yes, Wow, I'm I'm really sorry to hear about the kids are
16:02
thick. But I don't know, Josh, what you want from me?
16:03
Josh, you mind sharing with me what candy you may have given out on
16:07
Halloween night? I mean you know, it was just the usual goodies and
16:12
here to name some names? Sure? What did I have that? Some
16:17
like necho a wafers and Awa? Yeah, Choco choose. I'm sorry,
16:26
Choco chick. I've never heard of that. What is a choco chew?
16:29
What is that? It's like a different kind of tootsi role, different kind
16:33
or cheap version. I mean it's it's basically the same thing. Maybe it
16:37
costs a dollar less. I don't know. Well, it's just had a
16:40
tootsy role. It's generally about as cheap as candy as you can get.
16:42
But yet you managed to find a cheaper version. Is that right? Well
16:45
that's what the store had, so I wrote with that. Interesting. Well,
16:49
Josh, I'm going to be blunt with you. You are our main
16:52
suspect, given the information I've received from you today, would you be willing
16:57
to come down to the station and answer a few more quiess for us,
17:00
like to get an official statement if we could? I think I could just
17:03
do that over the phone, right, I don't think. Well, it's
17:06
gonna be a slew of of things. We're going to have you do a
17:10
lie detector test. Also gets you set up with a candy lineup, and
17:14
so we're gonna need to come down to the station. I'm gonna have to
17:15
have you come downtown a candy lineup. What the hell does that even mean?
17:19
A candy You'll find out what you get here. I can't say anymore
17:22
net ask you. I'm sure first of all the kids that the candy was
17:29
delicious, so I don't think I really have an issue. And also,
17:32
like, how sick were these kids? Well, we have reports of several
17:36
of the kids reporting upset tummies. It's very serious upset tummies. The police
17:41
are investigating some upset tummies. I thought it was like food poisoning. It's
17:45
a very serious matter. We take all cases equally as serious, and it's
17:49
a very upset tummies from these kids, and we just want to make sure
17:52
that we get the right guy in prison. Prison. Yeah, that's it,
18:00
what's happening. It's not happening. You're not going to prison. It's
18:03
Pike and Amanda in the morning on Big ninety eight point seventy. We're just
18:06
kidding more Pike than the Amanda to be the arresting officer. We do a
18:11
morning radio show, and we heard from your wife said that you were a
18:15
little cheap this year when she put you in charge of the candy, and
18:18
she's been giving you a hard time, so she wanted us to prank call
18:22
you wow. So she stole me out. She sold you out so quick,
18:26
dude. I love it better. Better at least it with you guys
18:29
and not the actual police. Gee. Now, I don't think it's a
18:33
crime to hand out cheap candy. It's just you know, gross nothing wroll
18:36
candy candy. I mean, come on, shocko, choose, Come on
18:40
now, come on, some people like them. It looked like the same
18:42
candy, just a different wrapper or whatever. Pike it Amanda in the morning,
18:48
Come on, get up on Big eight seven trending. Now here's what
18:53
you need to know. Well, Pike, I think you can agree.
18:56
Yesterday was pretty amazing and we wrapped up braws on Big ninety point seven.
19:00
Our friends over at Corwin Automotive Group and DS Beverages popped into the studio and
19:03
they had two big old giant checks. Yes, incredible, truly, I
19:07
mean, I mean twenty thousand dollars from DS Beverages. After all the Mikkelibultra
19:12
and the Cranberry Neutral sales over the month and twenty thousand dollars from Corwin because
19:17
of all the broad donations ten dollars per Broad. Do the math. I
19:19
mean, that's incredible. Yes, it was so great, and they were
19:22
able to give those checks directly to the Essential Health Foundations. So we all
19:26
went over to Essentia yesterday into the cancer center and just seeing the people that
19:30
are on the front lines and how much we know what means to them because
19:33
they're the ones that are giving these people these diagnoses of cancer, which is
19:37
just gut wrenching. But then to be able to offer them a gas card
19:41
for a little relief, or maybe it's a woman who is losing their hair
19:44
and getting them a wig, just helping them through the process of it.
19:48
It's just great. Well to literally see nurses with tears in their eyes because
19:52
of this donation because it's not just a job for them, you know,
19:56
it means a lot. So thank you all for helping and once again stepping
19:59
up and showing why the Old Farka Ward community is the best. Yes,
20:03
it's Soliday season, so it's the most wonderful time of year, and so
20:08
does Mariah Carey and I love she's playing into this. Everybody knows her song.
20:14
And on Instagram yesterday she had posted a video of herself in like a
20:18
vault and then she was in a huge ice cube and it was being defrosted
20:23
by Halloween character. I mean, this is like a full movie production.
20:26
It was. She's every year after years, she's getting more and more,
20:30
just like embracing the meme, and this was like a full on production.
20:33
I'm not saying this is all she has, but at this point you got
20:36
to own it. I mean, without the Christmas song on her own merit.
20:41
She's had a pretty good career. Yeah, one of the greats.
20:42
But she's a little pitchy and beware your ears are gonna hurt. This is
20:47
how it goes. It's it's not pitch. I mean, that's incredible that
20:57
she can hit that note. That's always been her thing. You remember,
21:00
though, was it three years ago? Two years ago she was at Rockefeller
21:03
Plaza singing it was It was a little cont she had a bad day,
21:08
okay, Amanda. I hope that's the case, because she is going back
21:11
out on tour. I would love to see her through the holidays. That
21:14
would be great. She's not coming to the Fargo area to my knowledge,
21:17
but if I could see her total bucket list, but I want to see
21:22
you know, the old school all right, Carrie, Oh she still got
21:25
it. I felt that one bad performance to tourry Okay, fair, fair,
21:29
fair, And we can't forget about Thanksgiving and do Giorna wants to make
21:32
sure everybody knows Thanksgiving us happening. And they're going to make this new pizza.
21:36
You can buy it, pop it in the oven so you don't have
21:38
to order it or anything. It's Doorna. Isn't that delivery? No Doorno
21:42
pizza I'm making. It's the old commercial. It's not delivery, It'sorno,
21:47
Amanda. What are you a big dumb dumb? Well, that may be
21:52
true, remember the commercials. Go ahead, it asks turkey, gravy,
21:59
dice, potatoes, green beans, cranberry cheese, and then it has And
22:03
this gets me every time. I love French onions, all the crispy on
22:07
top. That's what gets me to green bean casserole. But I also put
22:10
it on salad. Anyway, I'm so hungry. I think that sounds pretty
22:12
decent. That sounds like Thanksgiving on a pizza. Yeah, if anybody sees
22:15
it at a store, I'm gonna go look for it. But that's one
22:18
I want to bring in here. We gotta try that maybe. I mean,
22:19
honestly, it sounds like a lot less work than I know. My
22:22
stepmom gets up at three am or whatever to throw that turkey, And why
22:26
not just bring a digiorno? Why do I feel like you're going to like
22:30
for afterwards too, you know, everybody, if there's not a lot of
22:33
leftovers, this would be a great midday football snack. That's absolutely all right.
22:38
Weather it is today a gonna be cloudy, high of about forty
