Well, this is super awkward, Amanda. I was just on Facebook and
0:03
I saw somebody else wishing you a happy anniversary right now, and it dawned
0:08
at me. I'm like, oh, yeah, we talked about this earlier
0:10
this week because my anniversary was Wednesday, and I know it's right by yours,
0:13
but yours is today, Yeah, five years. Oh gosh, sorry,
0:17
I'm just looking at Facebook. Yeah, I just got a message.
0:19
I'm just wondering why you hadn't said anything. It's not from my husband,
0:22
which is weird. I'm being a wife and he hasn't said happy anniversary today.
0:27
So well, jeez, it's after nine o'clock and your husband, who
0:30
I know, gets up early, you get up even earlier. What's going
0:33
on? I think he hasn't said happy a five year anniversary of all kind
0:36
of feels like maybe he forgot. But now that he's been tagged in this,
0:39
he probably knows before he before he checks his what does he call it,
0:43
face face mask face mask, before he checks his face mask notifications.
0:47
You got a call him, all right, hang on, this is gonna
0:49
be awkward because he totally forgot. I act like I'm not here. Maybe
0:55
he's a maybe he's playing hard to get with you. Maybe he's like,
0:58
he don't even text me. This is weird if he does anything but answer
1:04
the phone singing happy anniversary. There's a song for that. Oh, I'm
1:08
sure he can make one up. He's a music man. Come on,
1:14
Nick, i'st ignoring Nick? Well, Nick? Hello, Hi, Hello,
1:23
Amanda. Wanted to call you. I don't know why. Oh sorry,
1:26
it's Pike. Hey sorry, I work with your wife. She's here
1:30
too. Hey man, Oh hey, Pike. We don't just leave me
1:34
out here hanging you wanted to call? I mean, what's the deal?
1:37
I just you had mentioned something a little bit ago, and I was like,
1:40
oh, yeah, I guess that's a thing. I got nothing to
1:42
do with this. Hi, Hi, what's up? What's up to today?
1:51
Just working? Just another just another friday. Huh another friday? T
1:57
G I f of me a friday. What are you guys? Up to?
2:02
Nothing? Just writing a check? Here? Mike? What's the date?
2:07
Like? Oh, you gotta check there, I gotta check here.
2:08
Let me check on my calendar. Here is it? Bo's eight eighteen?
2:13
So August eighteen, oh, got it? August one, eight got it?
2:16
There's another insignificant date. Known eight eighteen kind kind of has a ring,
2:23
do it? Sorry? Anny? What are you as? Yeah?
2:30
That be our anniversary. I don't remember you tell me happy anniversary this morning?
2:37
Yeah, man, you're the first one I know. I whispered it.
2:40
Nick. Are you sure you weren't just sleeping when you gave me a
2:43
kiss on the head and said happy anniversary, sweetie? Don't I don't remember
2:46
that at all? Deep sleep? What do you think the issues? Nick?
2:52
Do you feel like she's just because she thinks she's a woman, so
2:53
she doesn't have to go out of her way to, you know, celebrate
2:58
your day together. Well, she doesn't. She didn't celebrate a whole lot
3:01
with me, birthdays, anniversaries. Somehow she remembers, like the first day
3:08
we met, I do well, it happens to also be the first day
3:12
we met six years ago was today, and then on our one year anniversary
3:16
of dating, we got married. I tried to simplify this whole thing for
3:20
him, so we had to remember one day eight eighteen, actually eighteen.
3:30
You really have a platter for you there, Nicky. Well, hey,
3:32
but you got a happy anniversary from the bottom of my heart. And five
3:36
years that's a long time, Pike Nose coming in hot after four year anniversary
3:39
this week, you remember how long that trip was to the loot? Yeah,
3:45
I can, I can imagine. It seems like it seemed like it
3:47
took a week. Oh come on, except four years later, you guys
3:51
still can't come to grips with having a drive to de lout to watch your
3:53
dear friend get married. I know. I mean, and when you flew
3:57
out to our wedding on eight eighteen eighteen and Evergreen, Colorado, right because
4:01
he didn't invite me. No, we invited you. You just didn't show
4:03
up. But that's all right anyway, saved us some money on the Chaco
4:08
bar. The pictures look great anyway, Happy anniversary, enjoy the day.
4:12
I'm sure Amanda has big plans for you, Nick so big big Yeah.
4:16
All right, Well, I love you. I just here's to another lifetime
4:19
of memories. Son, you go in a minute in the morning, big
4:27
Nutty eight point seven. It's signed for our favorite game. It's a hypothetical
4:32
situation game. We face ourselves with some moral dilemmas and we find out what
4:36
do you do? What are you made of today? Pike? I mean,
4:41
play along in your car By the way, we're working on making a
4:43
NAT home board game addition, but we're just not there yet. So for
4:46
now we're going to do it on the radio. All right, Fike,
4:48
hit me Amanda, and don't panic. These are all hypothetical situation. I
4:53
know there was a lot of people last week that I thought that you were
4:55
actually getting hijacked in the back of a car. That was a hypothetical,
5:00
but you also ended up in a real bizarre situation here, Pike. Okay,
5:02
you've been granted the opportunity to be anybody for one day. Literally,
5:08
anybody you get to pick, you get to know all of their thoughts,
5:13
even the dirty ones. The twist is you have to sit down for a
5:16
tell all interview after you spend the day as this person and dish absolutely everything,
5:20
all the dirty laundry. So, Pike, I'm dying to know who
5:24
you're gonna pick. Who could you possibly pick? So, Pike, you
5:29
keep forgetting how to how to do that game? Okay, can't If you
5:32
can't play right, we're not gonna play at all. Okay, what do
5:36
I do? Probably my wife? Huh really, I mean Billy, And
5:45
then I don't know why that didn't even come to mind. But that's hilarious.
5:48
Wouldn't it Wait a day in their life or you're just in their head.
5:53
You're in their head, you get to live a day in their life,
5:55
all of it. Yes, the full on experience. I mean really,
5:58
I could talk about wanting to give yourself a performance grade. See what
6:03
the experience is really like from the other side. And she's gonna be like
6:09
thinking of all these other guys and doing I mean that's talking about Amanda.
6:13
No, but really really do I mean what if? What if you get
6:15
in there and it's like, oh my god, all she doesn't think about
6:21
the guy from Sons of Anarchy? How does she possibly even get through a
6:29
meeting at work? Charlie on him's just a little in her head? Oh
6:32
god, yeah, I get Okay, I'll go with then. So,
6:35
Amanda, your turn. A mobster in Italian mobster tells you he's got I
6:43
don't know, he cornered you somewhere in the grocery store. He says,
6:46
he really needs you to rob a bank for him. Now, if you
6:49
successfully rob the bank, he's gonna give you one billion dollars and a stable
6:56
of horses. Oh Goshallian. But now, If you get caught, you're
7:02
gonna have to serve one year in a federal prison. Of course it's your
7:06
first offense, but you'll be released on parole after that if you do it
7:12
successfully, though, billion dollars in the stable of horses a whole year away.
7:24
What do you do? And not a chance when I survive in jail.
7:27
I'm gonna have to pass on this because I'm gonna I'm gonna get busted.
7:30
I said, federal prison. You're not going to gen Pop. You're
7:33
gonna be in a nice little room. You're not. No, you wouldn't
7:38
survive. Would What would be the problem, Well, let's just be really
7:41
honest here, Pike. I could not rob a bank like that. Just
7:44
would not be possible. Stick them up. I don't know. You know,
7:47
people say like you don't get away with it anymore. That's like from
7:50
the old West. But there was a guy that robbed a bank Untilworth when
7:54
I was in high school, the little what is it called the Northwestern Bank
7:56
whatever? I think he got away with it. Oh, I'm just saying
7:59
it's not impossible. Okay, you know I wouldn't be able to do that.
8:01
Okay, somebody correct me. If you know that story. Maybe maybe
8:05
they got him. I hate to see you're really giving hope to those who
8:07
want to rob a bank, Pike, and I don't like it. No,
8:09
don't get unless you're in this situation, and then give it a go
8:13
again. All right, here we go. So some bozo decides to slide
8:16
into your wife's DMS. Of course she tells you about it, because that
8:20
guy from Sons of Anarchy. No, she tells you about it. She's
8:24
uncomfortable, and she's honest with you. You guys have a solid marriage.
8:28
She says, Hey, I'll handle it. I'll tell the guy to back
8:31
off. He does it, She says, I'm flattered. I'm happily married.
8:37
I think the situation is handled because clearly she sends him a message.
8:41
That's it. Yeah, but you're downtown one night, you're actually on stage
8:46
with your band, were playing blow standards. You're playing at Fargo Buring Company,
8:52
and you're in the middle of one of your bangers and you see this
8:56
guy. Okay, he walks up to your wife Lauren, gives her a
9:01
hug. He's whispering in her ear. Your mid song. You are mid
9:07
song, so Pike whispering, who knows what he's saying. Gave her a
9:13
little hug, you add to it? What else? What else did they
9:18
do? I don't know, but you're in the middle of a banger.
9:20
What do you do well, Amanda? Funny you should say that, because
9:24
you know, we've played many many shows downtown at the Pickled Parent and went
9:28
on on stage and she's in the crowd. There have been times where guys
9:31
just think, oh, it's just a single, lonely girl out on the
9:33
dance floor partying to this random band, just a groupie of ls. It's
9:37
it's our wives and girlfriend's favorite thing to do is talk about how like you
9:41
know, they'll get hit on and then they get to go, oh,
9:43
my husband's in the band, that's him up there. Oh gosh, this
9:46
one hit Sorry, I didn't know this was a real life. I thought
9:48
this was supposed to be hypothetical. No, this one hit home. So
9:52
no, realistically, like it's happened where somebody will be like obviously hitting on
9:54
her and she's a hottie. If we're in the middle of you know,
9:58
what's my age again? By blink one eighty two. I'm just gonna keep
10:01
ripping. I'm just gonna keep ripping Wow, even after he slid into her
10:05
DMS and he is hot after your Oh I forgot about that part. You
10:07
know, he is hot after her, he's basically stalking her. But then
10:11
I'm gonna get on the mic after the song and just humiliate the guy and
10:15
be like, I mean, hey, this guy, uh, you know,
10:16
booped his pants. Get him out of here. And then I'm gonna
10:20
make the bar staff take him out of the barop his pants. Hell humiliating,
10:26
all right, a man? A final one for what do you do?
10:28
You're all set to fly out on a vacation with your husband Nick to
10:33
a Ruba, Jamaica. I won't say yeah. Now the flight leaves tomorrow.
10:39
You've you've literally been saving for two years using money you've earned from your
10:45
daughter's lemonade stand. You and Nick are going on a trip now. Suddenly,
10:50
the night before the flight, you get a call. You find out
10:54
that your good friend and co host Pike was in a horrible horse riding accident.
11:00
Gosh, he was trampled by an entire staple of horses. You are
11:05
on a horse kick lately, same one's from the first story, by the
11:09
way, Now he's broken every bone in his body. But he is alive,
11:13
but in critical condition at a cent of health. Now you've already checked
11:18
in for your flight. Literally on the app you're checked in. Yeah,
11:22
but they're not sure if he's gonna make it. So, Amanda got a
11:30
rube is beautiful this time of year. It's this time of year. Termine
11:37
what your answer is or what absolutely is it the dead of winter or is
11:39
it sunny and ninety and late girl vibes here, because that's a huge difference.
11:45
It's winter, it's January. Oh gosh, last winter was brutal.
11:48
You weren't here for it, That's what I hear. I can't wait for
11:52
your winter like I'm gonna be the first one with flowers at a cent of
11:58
health. Making sure you're okay on the way to the airport or what,
12:01
No, skip my trip? You're skipping your trip, yep. Because I'm
12:05
also gonna have to fill in on the morning show because you're gonna be can
12:09
come to work? I mean, all right, Ruba maybe next year in
12:13
the morning seven. Can we enter the judgment zone quick? Why not get
12:20
a little judge on a Friday? Yeah, it's okay to be a little
12:22
judge because the situation calls for it. This husband has an issue with his
12:26
wife wanting to be an underwear model. She wrote on l on Reddit that
12:33
she wanted She's now forty two years old. Okay, her and her husband
12:35
have a four year old son four years old, and she has an opportunity
12:39
to become an underwear model and make money doing so. She does not disclose
12:45
how much money. But the husband is giving a hard no. He said
12:48
he does not want other people seeing her body like that. Sir. She
12:54
wants to know if she should listen to him or defy his request and go
13:00
ahead with it. You can't really defy your husband's request in that situation.
13:03
I think you can. I think she might even probably should. You know,
13:07
if you have this opportunity and she's obviously you probably wouldn't be given the
13:11
opportunity if she wasn't with a rock and body. So I think, go,
13:15
boy, don't you? I don't know. I just I also try
13:18
to reverse the roles. I'm not gonna want my husband in an underwear situation,
13:22
and people are like, ooo, really, what's a man in underwear?
13:24
It's like and now she makes a good point. She says, it's
13:28
the same thing I wear to the beach or the pool. So what's the
13:31
difference your husband and underwear? What's it? I don't know, but I
13:33
guess it's for the world to see. I could see how you would be
13:35
uncomfortable. And maybe the father's also taking it. Hey, my four year
13:39
old kid doesn't. Also there's there's mom in her underwear. But that's nothing.
13:46
How many people can I go on their Instagram and right now see them
13:48
at the beach in a bikini and they're not even get paid for it.
13:50
Yeah, she had a chance to provide for the family. You got four
13:52
year old kid not cheap? You know that. Do we know how much
13:56
money is on the day? Boy, you do not know? Fight make
13:58
a different terrible if she got paid five hundred bucks to take a picture in
14:03
her underwear, Like, great's what's going on in a little trump? What's
14:07
no that's going to be I will say. I mean it could be worse.
14:09
Because when I was growing up in the major metropolis of Glendon, Minnesota,
14:15
small town and you know the life in the small town, Oh do
14:18
Yeah? There was there was a family whose mom beautiful young lady at the
14:22
time, she seemed old, but she was probably like twenty five or something.
14:26
Was a performer at a club here in Fargo, over off of yep,
14:31
over off of University. Uh. And yes, so she would dance
14:33
there and everybody knew it. And so you know, as kids, little
14:37
boys like those poor kids had to hear about it from everybody because not only
14:43
was the mom very hot, you know, in the world of Stiffler's mom
14:46
back in the day, you know, it was. So have you convinced
14:48
yourself? Maybe? Nah? I mean, she's providing for the family.
14:52
No, I'm just saying. What I'm saying is no, it could be
14:54
worse. I'm saying this is nothing. Of course she should be able to,
14:56
you know, be in her underwear. If Lauren wanted to do this
14:58
really for everybody, I would. I'm shocked by that. I guess I
15:03
feel like this is a husband wife conversation. If your husband does not agree
15:07
with it, it's like, okay, then no your mine, I'm yours.
15:09
We're in a relationship together, and you geez amend of the forties called
15:13
what do you guys think? One seven? Old school Amanda in the morning
15:20
on Ready, that's he is type in hot today. No, Amanda stills
15:31
the sea, Let's see buckle up, you guys. It's all about Britney
15:35
Spears. Today, her and her soon to be ex husband's divorce is gonna
15:39
get nasty. He cited irreconcilable differences as his reason for divorcing Brittany and listed
15:45
their separation date as July twenty eighth. Now he wants spousal support and also
15:48
wants her to pay his legal fees. The documents also say he reserves the
15:52
right to amend any of their property in community assets. They have a pre
15:56
nup, so I don't think there's gonna be any amendments here. But he
16:00
is threatening to go public with extraordinarily embarrassing information about Brittany unless he gets paid.
16:04
Don't we call that blackmail and extortion? Well, in a way is
16:10
it? Like is it black and white? Just illegal? I'm pretty sure.
16:14
I mean, if you have some leverage, what's wrong with using a
16:17
little leverage. Well, he is also accusing Britney Spears of domestic violence.
16:21
He frequently complained that she was getting physical with him, and the numerous incidents
16:25
that have happened over the past seven years of their relationship. She even attacked
16:29
him while he was sleeping, leaving him with a black guy. I guess.
16:32
The report shows photographs of him with bruises and other injuries that were allegedly
16:36
caused by Brittany. The couple also allegedly got into several fights string in which
16:41
the security had to intervene. So if this does to go to court and
16:44
people have to start talking, this could get really nasty. He said that
16:47
he was also concerned about the violence, particularly because Brittany has a fascination with
16:51
knives and keeps them all around the house. You're not telling me she's like
16:56
a sword girl, is she? No? I don't think, like,
16:59
Okay, it's like we're gonna stop in knives. Yeah, she does keep
17:02
knives in the bedroom. She was paranoid someone was going to get her and
17:04
she needed the knives as protection. And he was scared that she could fly
17:08
off the handle over almost anything. And we're also finding out there was some
17:12
lies going on. Now. Her loneliness is killing her. Brittany has not
17:17
been on good terms with her family, but her loneliness is killing her.
17:21
That's just the worst. And you said it's so castually, get better.
17:26
Delete that from the story. And she's so lucky, she's a star.
17:33
But her parents and oops, she did it again. Yeah yeah, yeah,
17:41
yeah, yeah, what happened. So her loneliness is killing her.
17:51
Britney Spears is not on good terms with her family, so we thought,
17:59
oh my gosh. Her meeting with her mom back in May went okay,
18:03
but there's still a lot of hurt there. So we're finding out that in
18:07
June and she was supposed to have met up with her sister, Jamie Lynn.
18:10
Well Jamie Lynn is like, no, that just absolutely never happened.
18:12
But her sister is supporting the divorce. She liked the people post of them
18:17
being separated. I'm guessing that's showing your support, Like, I'm glad that
18:21
this divorce is happening, right, I think they all probably agree that it
18:23
was a good thing. And you know, it depends on who you are.
18:26
Sometimes you run, sometimes you hide. Just kind of depends. And
18:33
we are all about Pink today, gonna be at the Fargo Jump tomorrow night,
18:37
and is she gonna sing this song and do the same thing she did
18:38
on Wednesday? She was showing her support for Britney Spears as well. Now
18:42
you know her song guys Don't let Me Get Me? Yeah, Now,
18:49
one of my favorites. So the lyrics are originally about the comparisons between Britney
18:55
and Pink, and it's as tired of being compared to dam Britney spears,
18:57
she's so pretty that just ain't me. But she updated the lyrics last night,
19:12
Sweet Britney Spears. Also just listen to her voice. I am so
19:18
jacked for this concert tomorrow night. Now. Spoiler though, because if you're
19:21
going to the show and you were expecting to hear that song, I'm a
19:22
little confused because she didn't play it the last time I saw her, and
19:26
I was upset by that because I love it, and she played many other
19:29
less popular songs. I just don't get that. But then you know,
19:32
we looked at the set list and I didn't see it on there, But
19:33
now here she is playing it. So I don't know who knows. It's
19:36
going to be a surprise. I hope her daughter, Willow is going to
19:38
be with her. We really don't know what to expect, other than the
19:41
fact that we have a huge announcement coming up at seven fifty one this morning.
19:45
Let's lock it in for seven fifty one morning about Pink and this is
19:51
gonna be wild, wild like in a mina in the morning on Big Nutty
19:56
eight points seven. You're a girl, right, man? I am integracy
20:00
girl girl as well. Well, you guys know all about girl math,
20:03
then don't you girl math? You said math, and speaking of you get
20:08
sweaty. I get anxious with math. Well, you know they're always changing
20:11
how you do it? Right? Well, girl math is a new way
20:14
of doing math. It's picking up steam on the platform X formerly known as
20:18
Twitter. Got it. This woman was talking about how girls use girl math
20:22
when purchasing luxury items to justify making said purchases. Basically, it's on sale
20:30
and that's her reason. She says. If an item is on sale and
20:33
it's an item that you're going to need eventually, you're losing money if you
20:37
don't buy it. And it's you know, logical into you in a way.
20:41
Now, I mean, what are the luxury items? Because I can't
20:45
think of any luxury items that you're going to quote need. Oh my gosh,
20:48
a purse. What are you going to do with all those things?
20:51
How are you going to carry your nooks and gadgets? Yeah, exactly,
20:53
and your kids diapers and all the things that you have and your husband's stuff
20:57
when they decided to put it in mom's purse. Other girl Math tricks include
21:02
rounding figures down and dividing the items priced by how many times you will use
21:07
or wear that item. So you get three dollar a dress, but you
21:11
wear it twenty times, you're really only paying fifteen dollars. According to girl
21:15
Math, we shouldn't be talking about this on air. I feel like this
21:18
is like a secret These are secret weapons. Girls. You deserve to be
21:22
exposed. I love that, and you know how many And I've yet to,
21:26
like officially catcher, I don't have the evidence I need. But my
21:27
wife constantly will have a new outfit on and it's just the classic. I'm
21:32
like, oh wait, when'd you get that? And it's never like I
21:33
got it a month ago. It's never I got it four months ago.
21:37
It's always literally have had it for years. I'm like, so you we've
21:41
moved several times. I don't remember a giant bag of clothes I've never seen
21:45
before, So where are they coming from? Like get a mina in the
21:47
morning, you know, when you're maybe on a plane, maybe you're just
21:52
in public, and somebody buy you who you don't even know is on their
21:56
phone and they're texting and you can like clearly see the screen to their phone.
22:00
Oh yeah, and you're trying not to be that person, but you
22:03
always interesting to kind of look over. I mean, do you try.
22:07
I'm sure some people do. Some people just embrace it. It's like,
22:08
oh yeah, what are you talking about? Well, this woman on an
22:11
airplane sitting next to a stranger a man noticed on his phone as he was
22:17
texting in the seat next door. Then he fired off and I love you
22:21
text okay, perfectly normal. You're leaving, you know, before you turn
22:23
your phone and airplane mode like a good boy. And honestly probably the last
22:27
text. Most people said. Well, then it got interesting when he pulled
22:32
up another text and said I love you to another woman, and so ladies
22:37
going, oh my god, I am sitting next to it. Just a
22:41
full fledged cheater. Oh my gosh, this is so what does she do
22:45
ridiculous? Just minds her business and goes about the flight. No, not
22:49
this a we'll call her a Janet. I don't know it sound like a
22:52
janet anyway. She decides to confront my man and says, oh no,
22:56
she did not look and says, you should be ashamed. Of yourself.
23:00
She threatens to expose him on social media. How well, you're gonna take
23:03
a picture of this guy who's sitting next to you at the airplane and be
23:07
like, do I love you? Text in one minute? I mean,
23:10
come on, got to be sleeping with somebody else. Uh No. It
23:12
turns out my man who posted this story on TikTok, said that it wasn't
23:17
his lover he was texting. It was his daughter. The second I was
23:22
going to his daughter. And if you're a wild woman, would feel the
23:27
need to intrude in somebody else's situation, because if this is me, I'd
23:32
probably like dirty dog. And you're thinking about it, but it's also just
23:34
this weird entertainment that you're giving yourself, thinking what does this guy do in
23:38
his lifetime? You know, like asking questions if you want to engage and
23:41
have a conversation, but this is none of your business. I mean,
23:45
in the embarrassment, imagine confronting him and then him saying that and her just
23:51
going like, oh my god. And now you're you're so far into it,
23:55
like there's no just easy exit from this conversation. You know, you're
23:57
all in. You got now you probably have to like start arguing, and
24:00
now you have to see screen, like show me the tax, prove it
24:03
to me. Well, and you gotta think this guy's gotta go. Lady,
24:07
you are like a scorn woman like that you would even go that route.
24:11
I mean, it never once crossed her mind that it could be he
24:14
could have jeez, what if he had another daughter? And three I Love
24:17
you text went out? I mean, how about I send a four I
24:23
like in a minute in the morning, big nutty eight point seven. When's
24:26
the last time you checked out a library book? You know, of course
24:29
you can accumulate late fees. And there was this library over in Canada that
24:33
just received a book that was overdue. Guess how long the book had been
24:37
overdue? Five years? Five? No, nope, it was checked out
24:41
in the year nineteen thirty seven. Oh stopping eighty six years ago? Is
24:45
that when they were still doing the Dewey desk bul system. What are they
24:49
not doing that or what? I don't think so. I feel like everything's
24:52
pretty computerized these days. They probably it's probably still exists, right, I
24:56
mean, you do have to go find the book? Oh yeah, I
24:57
got just maybe not the card catalog? Yeah, I bet you'd have to
25:02
go through. But somebody returned it and they said there's no late fee because
25:04
they waved all late fees last year apparently, so now you can just take
25:08
books and it's just the honor system. Just hey, but just bring it
25:12
back please, It's going to be on your conscience. And at this point,
25:17
well, I imagine this person for eighties six years had to go to
25:19
bed at night knowing that what they've done, it's just a good reader.
25:23
I bet though, Well, just maybe it took that long. Maybe they
25:26
didn't say how big the book was. Yeah, every once in a while
25:29
you started booking, like, am I ever going to finish this? Nothing
25:30
better in getting into a good one that you can't put down. Though it's
25:33
been a while. Yeah, I haven't rented many books or what do you
25:37
call it checking them out? But my wife does. But no, I
25:40
rented a movie once speaking it will overdue things. I rented a movie and
25:44
this was when I was single. You know, remember that do Fall of
25:47
twenty thirteen. Yeah, and so I rented Home. It was coming up
25:51
on Christmas season and you know me big Home alone guys. Oh, I
25:55
know, I'm really excited because my kids love Home Alone. They've already started
25:59
wanting to watch it again. You'll have to come over and watch with the
26:00
fail, we'll have to watch the second one, which, as everyone knows,
26:04
is the better picture. Home Alone too lost in New York. So
26:07
anyway, I checked this out because this was my way when I was first
26:11
starting to day Lauren, in fact my wife. Now, I thought like,
26:12
oh, this will be a cute little thing. Get him over to
26:15
the house. Say hey, I rented Home Alone two from cash Wise Video.
26:18
Yeah, this is my favorite Christmas movie. I like it, like,
26:23
with no intentions of anything else other than watching the film. Yeah,
26:26
And so I did, and you know, silly met in college at the
26:30
time, just didn't return the movie. And so months went by, and
26:33
then you know, they never called, no offensive cash Wise Video rest in
26:37
Peace. But they never called or they had the wrong number. So anyway,
26:40
didn't they just like go out of business? Yeahs as Mighty did.
26:44
And that's the thing about it. They went out of business, and I
26:45
thought, well, hey, I win. You know, that's it.
26:48
It's my movie. Now I would think, yeah, Well, years go
26:52
by and I start a band and we need some equipment. So we go
26:55
to the bank and say hey, can we get a loan? And they
26:56
say, yeah, we gotta run your credit and I go, sure,
27:00
should be fine. Not fine, because a twenty five dollars late fee was
27:07
sent to collections. Get out of here, and I never got anything.
27:10
I didn't know anything about that. You know, when you move every eight
27:12
months, it's kind of hard to keep up with your address. And so
27:15
my credit was just destroyed because and I'm like, what the heck is it?
27:19
What's in collections? I look and it was a late fee to the
27:22
now dead Ashby's video. Wow, what you did for a little Marvin Harry
27:27
a little more? Now here's what you need to know. Well, it
27:33
was tough to watch, but I think a lot of us did because it
27:36
was so dramatic. And the video footage was released yesterday from the shooting that
27:38
happened last month in Fargo that left one officer dead and just seeing how fast
27:45
it happens. You can hear from you know, the Attorney General Drew Wrigley
27:48
a few weeks ago talking about it, but seeing it and just knowing that
27:52
he was standing there knowing what he was plotting, and they had no idea
27:55
what was about to happen. Yeah, just a routine traffic accident and just
27:59
the actions of Officer Robinson, which we knew he was a hero. I
28:03
mean, he stopped obviously what could have been exponentially larger of a tragedy.
28:07
But just seeing it in action is unbelievable. Truly, the training that he
28:11
had to have had, and even then, you can train and train and
28:12
train, but you can't simulate that real life experience and the way he handled
28:17
it. I think we're forever indebted to that man, so heroic. Absolutely,
28:22
the Twoey family, they are now saying that they will end their conservativeship
28:25
of Michael Or. We knew this was probably gonna happen. My heart breaks
28:27
for them because the Michael Lewis, who was actually the guy who wrote the
28:30
Blindside book. That was a book, Yes, it was a book originally,
28:33
and then it turned into a movie. That's usually how it goes,
28:36
Pike, is that right, Usually how it goes. Skipping into the film.
28:41
He said none of the real life figures featured in the film really received
28:45
any money, and the thirteen years since it was released, he said,
28:47
everybody should just be mad at the Hollywood studio system. Michael Or if he
28:51
wanted the money he should go on the Hollywood Writers Strike. It was a
28:53
deal that nobody had signed up for it, or I guess what they all
28:56
signed up for, probably not realizing that Sandra Bullock was going to get an
29:00
oscar, not realizing how much money you were gonna get. Yeah, I
29:03
don't care how much money any of them get, really, but you know,
29:07
it just sounds like it's all a done deal now, right, I
29:08
mean yes. Sandra Bullock also chiming in though, and she's just devastated by
29:12
the claims that the film might have been based on a lie, and she
29:15
just feels icky about it because her name is getting drug through this, like
29:18
she would have known. And Okay, you're an actress who was portraying somebody
29:22
with the script that you were given, and who cares. It's a small
29:26
detail. It's not the whole film was completely made up out of thin air.
29:29
It was like, was he adopted or was he signed under a conservative
29:32
ship? What's the difference? He still was taken in by this family and
29:36
yeah, a great life. He was probably a better football player than they
29:38
made it out for him to be. You know, when they first found
29:41
him, he was like, oh, what's a football, you know.
29:45
But with that's, of course, there's Hollywood. Be in Hollywood. I
29:52
mean, what really got me is a SJ isn't a redhead. I just
29:56
saw a picture of SJA. I'm really confused. Is because that is not
30:00
the little boy I saw? Oh my gosh. Jamie Fox. He released
30:06
a little bit yesterday on social media. He posted a picture of himself on
30:10
Instagram. He's just leaning up against a wall and the caption says, you're
30:14
looking at a man who's thankful, finally starting to feel like myself. It's
30:18
been an expected, unexpected, dark journey, but I can see the light.
30:23
How about you give us a medical diagnosis otherwise just stop, just stop.
30:27
Yeah, it's driving me crazy. I'm so glad that he's good,
30:32
of course, but you're just just a big old teeth I think he I
30:37
think he just like stubbed his toe and that's this whole thing. Something's coming.
30:41
Hey my wife stubbed her toe once and had to have surgery. Can
30:44
better? Oh yeah, it can be very traumatic and rehab maybe afterwards who
30:48
was doing she was doing? She's killed me if I told it was after
30:53
a show one time and she you know, had a few drinks and she
30:56
was trying to do like a cart wheel over the couch. Oh it didn't,
31:02
it didn't end well. It's been a few days at Stanford. The
31:07
visual I have just solid acrobats. It sounds like you two have a lot
31:11
in common. I mean both of you. You were doing FM aerial arts
31:15
yesterday trying to be like Pink. She's doing cartwheels over couches. It sounds
31:18
like a couple of athletes. Just wait, if we have a kid going
31:22
on. If we have a kid, watch out. Twenty thirty six Olympics.
31:26
Here we come. We are not prepared for that. Weather wise today
31:30
it is going to be sunny, a little wind, high of eighty two.
