Pike Is Not Well After the Packers Loss · Podcast - Big 98.7

0:00
Well here I am. Everybody take your shots. Okay. Oh, I
0:03
know, I know the role I'm playing as a Green Bay Packer fan living
0:07
in Minnesota and North Dakota. I get it, and I welcome it.
0:10
I love the contention between Vikings fans who And I'm not even trying to be
0:15
mean or take a little jab. I know you get it totally. But
0:18
Amanda, you know, Saturday Big Packer game, I'm going to the Cities
0:22
to a birthday party. You know, it's just an unfortunate timingause my wife's
0:25
sister's thirtieth birthday. We're having this big party and I got to watch the
0:29
game, so I don't be saw with the photo. But there's literally this
0:31
community room and this apartment where everybody's gathered in the one room celebrate and drink
0:37
and eating cake, cute happy birthday balloons, everything, and it had like
0:40
a really good vibe to it. In thirtieth there was just you. It
0:44
looks like you were kind of in your own space yep. On the other
0:47
side where the TV was yep, completely locked into the Green Bay Packer forty
0:50
nine ers game for four hours. Well, if you saw the game,
0:55
you know how I'm doing today. Well, emotionally, you had to have
0:59
had a lot of really highs, like really high highs. Most of the
1:03
game. I was pretty And this is where this is a fatal mistake,
1:07
convincing yourself that you're going to win not only this game but the next and
1:12
you'll be in the super Bowl. And when you just in a heartbreaking fashion
1:17
lose at the end of the game a manda, it makes it so much
1:19
worse. I would rather have lost by a thousand I can see that,
1:23
yes, because you were so hopeful now and I am truly not doing this
1:27
to like really bring up the feelings I crashed. What ended up happened?
1:30
Did they miss a field goal and through an interception? Yeah, the game
1:34
ended on an interception. But they were winning almost a whole game. Six
1:38
minutes left, they go down, they have a chance to take a seven
1:41
point lead, they miss a field goal. Kicker is the most pathetic kicker
1:44
in the history of the NFL. Oh okay, I don't ever want to
1:47
see Hm in a Packer uniform again. Worse than Crosby though, because did
1:49
Crosby Crosse is a Hall of Fame kicker. Man. He had one bad
1:53
season, that was it, But I'm sorry I brought it up, Okay,
1:55
But the thing for me is, and a lot of people judge me
1:57
on this, it's it's just one of those things. It's a there's so
2:00
many highs that come with it when you care this much. And really,
2:01
I know some people think it's football it's stupid, but really, if you
2:05
break it down, what does anything mean? You know? Anybody? Whatever
2:08
your this is deep? What is your interest? What do you get satisfaction
2:13
from the spoy or for you? None of it matters. It's just all
2:15
things that make us feel good throughout our lives. Until you know, do
2:20
you feel better? No? No, Well I'll tell you at least you're
2:23
not that Green Bay Packer fan, you know what I mean? Like,
2:25
you're not one that just like bothers people. So that's good to know.
2:29
Some people might, you know, not even realize that I'm a fan.
2:30
I'm not like the loudest on social media. I don't. You're tolerable Internally,
2:36
I try, but internally it's all I think about. I care so
2:39
much, and so it's kind of like a It's kind of like having a
2:44
pet, Amanda. You feel like this. Some people might say, why
2:47
would you get a dog, knowing full well that sooner than later ten twelve,
2:53
thirteen years you're going to experience the worst heartbreak of your life when that
2:59
dog poss This is why brust me. I know, yeah, we both
3:01
wouldn't you say that the time you had together is worth it? The highsman,
3:07
I'm really I'm trying to understand. But yeah, so it's much like
3:10
me cheering on the Green Bay Packers and being a fan of football. It's
3:13
like you know your heart's gonna get broken more often than not. But why,
3:19
Well, I'll tell you why, because nothing could replace the feelings I
3:23
felt prior to Saturday night. Okay, it's all worth it, even though
3:28
I know it's gonna happen again and again. So who are you rooting for
3:30
for this time? I'm not gonna watch it. I haven't watched football and
3:32
I will not watch a second of it. You've got to be rooting for
3:35
the Lions, right, don't cents? Chiefs, don't care. That's who
3:38
I'm going for, literally, don't care. I hope they canceled the season.
3:40
I hope there's a skin disease outbreak. Much like my senior season of
3:45
high school wrestling. It happens. Okay, I mean, come on,
3:50
you're gonna at least watch a super Bowl so you can be like yeah,
3:52
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, I will tune in for Usher.
3:54
Okay, got it? And that's it's in the morning, big naty
3:58
eight point seven. Right, let's do it. Is it weird? We
4:03
discussed the little things we do in our personal lives that we kind of wonder
4:06
to ourselves and you probably do too. Is this weird? Am I the
4:10
only one doing this totally? And so, Amanda, you've really really teased
4:14
us. I mean I'm not alone when I say I'm on the edge of
4:15
my seat. So are you please proceed? Is it weird that I have
4:19
not been into Target on Thirteenth Avenue since they've done the remodel, and it's
4:26
been probably six plus years. I did not know. Is it weird that
4:30
I did not know they had a liquor store until a few weeks ago in
4:33
the Target on thirteenth Avenue. This is a weird one. I'm not saying
4:39
that's weird. I'm just saying that this is your Is it weird? Yes?
4:42
Well you know why haven't you? I guess it's kind of that like
4:45
post COVID. I don't go into stores really, I do drive up for
4:48
everything, so if I do pick up, I'm over on the side.
4:51
Like I've never gone in there, So if I were to walk in,
4:55
my anxiety would go wild because I wouldn't know where to go, Like I
4:58
wouldn't know where anything is. Okay, what, I'm sure you'd figure it
5:01
out. Well, yeah, but you know how, it's not. It's
5:04
just a story. It's a store you don't go. And there's a list
5:06
of stores I haven't stepped foot in in this town. I've lived here for
5:10
thirty three years minus a few, but there's still like a handful of stores
5:14
that are pretty customer like you should at least have gone in there. I
5:16
don't know, like Target, No, No, you don't and don't feel
5:19
like you just because like social media moms pressuring you into being like a Target
5:25
man, you really don't coffee. No, I know, I think it's
5:29
weird. I'm not that said you should go in there. It's lovely,
5:31
is it. Yeah? Parking Lot's a bit of a mess, but and
5:34
I think that's probably why I've always opted to And I'd really like to know
5:38
how much I've saved in the past couple of years by not going into a
5:42
store because it gets to be crazy. Yeah. The thing about Target that
5:46
floors me is like the line at the Starbucks constantly, it never ending.
5:51
I know, first of all, why would you wait that while you're standing
5:54
in the Target. It's like, just dry, go get coffee somewhere else,
5:58
do whatever you want to Dude. Saying that, I say, it
6:00
wasn't as weird as I thought. It was not weird at all. Is
6:03
it as weird as this? Though? Yesterday we're watching a movie because I'm
6:06
doing anything to not watch football, right, Yeah, there was. That's
6:11
too bad because we found this twenty twelve gem that I hadn't even heard of,
6:15
called The Impossible. Have you heard this film? It's about the two
6:18
thousand and four tsunami that killed two hundred thousand people in Southeast Asia. I
6:26
remember hearing about you. How about that? Yeah, one of the biggest
6:29
tragedies ever. Well, Naomi Watches nominated for an oscar in this film.
6:32
Anyway, So we're watching the movie and there's a scene where this family gets
6:35
brought back together and it's the most like beautiful moment, and I'm starting to
6:40
cry. Okay, and I know my wife on the other side of the
6:44
couch is sobbing. But because I know that, I don't look over.
6:47
Is it weird when you know somebody else is crying, like just to not
6:50
look at them once? Or should I be consoling her because I you know,
6:55
for my part, I'm going through it too. I mean this moment,
6:57
Amanda, you should see it, Okay, the fact that I don't
7:00
want to spoil it, because you should watch this movie. It's called The
7:01
Impossible again incredible, the story of this family who somehow well wait, you
7:08
already spoiled it. It sounds like they get back together Pike, and it's
7:11
just gut wrenching. I'm not saying how many of them get back together?
7:15
Do they all make it? I don't know. I'm guessing Naomi Wats' family
7:17
gets back together. I'm not saying that either. It doesn't matter. I
7:21
mean, they started out with five. Do all five get back together?
7:25
Well? Who knows? Bottom line is is that is weird? Why would
7:29
you not scoot over and have that moment with your wife and console her because
7:31
that's got to be awkward for her. No, she is probably she's probably
7:36
just anxiously awaiting she's probably crying more tears because you didn't come over and put
7:41
your hand on her snugglerr in, nuzzle in. I think she wants that
7:45
moment to herself because I'm sitting there and I got like a tear rolling down
7:47
my face. Again, beautiful scene, but I know she is, like
7:54
you know, I can like hear the panting going on, so she doesn't
7:58
even look at you, because I could have felt if she was looking at
8:01
you. And did you even talk about it after any a feeling? Amanda?
8:03
Can you feel when somebody's looking at you? Can you feel the love
8:07
tonight? I know she very well could be doing the same thing, but
8:09
you didn't discuss it at the end of the movie, like ah, that
8:13
was a real tear jerker or anything. We go, Oh, good,
8:16
good movie. What do you want to watch now? For real? Yeah,
8:20
this situation is bizarre. What do you want us to go to therapy?
8:22
Is discuss our feelings about this movie? No? But I also kind
8:26
of feel like you're setting this movie up for it to be really good and
8:30
you were still just crying over the packers loss. To be fair, That's
8:33
where I feel like that tearcase. Okay, I thought we could get through
8:35
this without bringing that up once. Yeah, emotions were high, but it
8:37
had nothing to do with that beautiful family that may or may not have gone
8:41
back together after the two namies. A beautiful story. I get Amna in
8:46
the morning, seven, Amanda. You know me. I'm not wanting to
8:50
get into other people's business, right yeah, but in this case, when
8:52
I see something unjust, you know, I'm gonna stick my little nose and
8:56
you gonna step in. I don't know if you've heard about this guy who's
9:00
the zamboni driver for the Detroit Red Wings. Okay, NHL team been one
9:03
for a long time. I know nothing about this zamboni driver you speak of.
9:07
My dude, Al Sabotka, seventy years old and has been the zamboni
9:13
driver for the Red Wings for fifty years. Who I love. Stint a
9:18
long run, well until recently, Amanda. Al was fired as the zamboni
9:22
driver. Oh no, that's right. The reason, Oh gosh, he
9:28
was caught by a fellow employee urinating in a drain between two zambonis, and
9:35
so he was fired for urinating into a drain. Now you're imagine, no,
9:41
just the employee, so you can imagine like at shields a rena even
9:45
where they keep the zamboni, they drive off the ice into the like kind
9:48
of garage area. Yep. So unfortunately for Al, an employee saw m
9:52
saw him reported him. In weeks later he was fired for real, Now
9:58
you mean, come on, there comes at I don't know what his file
10:01
looks like after fifty years. Has he been written up a few times?
10:05
Has he been slapped for a little urinating in the This was in the first
10:09
time he exposed. Yeah, exactly in the same spot. We got to
10:13
know a little bit more. Apparently not because he's heartbroken, and now Al
10:16
he has a reason, he said, because of his age. He currently
10:20
has benign prostatic hyperplasia. You have that too, don't you? Oh,
10:24
I don't know what. That's a condition that makes it difficult to regulate,
10:28
to regulate urination. So kind of like when you gotta go, you gotta
10:31
go. Here's a bit of a conspiracy that I got Al seventy years old.
10:35
Had he said that just before the incident, he was on a video
10:37
call, which the fact that a zamboni driver has to jump on a video
10:41
call, right, But one of the upper ups at the Detroit red Wings
10:45
made a comment along the lines of Al, you're getting pretty old, right,
10:50
and so he believes. Now this is Al's theory that the firing had
10:54
less to do with the urination as it did with Oh no, his age.
11:01
Yeah, I don't like it. I mean, is he's still doing
11:03
a good job. It feels like if he's been doing this, guy could
11:07
be sleeping and he could do it in his sleep. After fifty years,
11:09
let the guy run the zamboni unless he's causing some problems. And let's be
11:13
honest, I mean, a drain, it all goes to the same place.
11:16
Like my buddy, we used to stay in his basement all the time.
11:20
And if you've ever been in like a baseman ornstairs where there's not a
11:22
bathroom, it went in the middle of the night. That's the nightmare stuff.
11:24
So we used to just walk into the laundry room, go in the
11:26
drain. That's so disgusting, though, I mean, I can see that
11:30
his mom did eventually take issue with it because the house began to smell like
11:33
urine. I can imagine, which is fair. But in Al's case,
11:35
it's not like you're gonna stick up the whole arena. Man If this was
11:39
more of a local story, not a big Red Wings fan. No,
11:41
I don't care about him one bit, but you'd think that there'd be fans
11:46
or people that are gonna hear this story come together and either create a gofund
11:48
me so I would be hitting refreshed for that, or just people protesting at
11:54
the zamboni driver at the games like that did insane? I mean, come
11:56
on, I mean you think he's got to be a bit of a local
12:00
fifty years on the ice driving that big old zamboni around. Yeah, unless
12:03
they gave him a really good compensation plan. But even if they did,
12:07
I don't think he'd be complaining. It's not about the money for Al.
12:09
You don't think after fifty years driving that zamboni he's not making good good coin.
12:13
It's about the principle he wanted to have, and he said it in
12:16
a statement. He just wanted to be able to retire on his own terms.
12:20
It meant a lot to his family. Yeah, and to go out
12:22
in such a disgraced fashion, it's heartbreaking. And I think we got a
12:26
fight. Justice fund me, Justice for Al. You get the hashtaking hashtake
12:33
going all set up the goalfundme we're gonna make this right. Wife and Amanda
12:35
in the morning on Big seven. This just happened. This guy's twenty one
12:41
years old. His name's Matteas. He's partying it up on the beach.
12:45
He's twenty one years old, hanging out with the boys when suddenly he gets
12:48
hit in the head by something. You know that jarring feeling of just getting
12:52
smoked in the head. Oh hey, yeah. He didn't know what it
12:56
was. He assumed probably like a rock because it was that, and then
13:00
he realized he was bleeding. He's like, jeez, I really got smoked
13:03
in the head. Okay, coconut. He goes back to the room,
13:07
they get ready, and they go out. He goes to the bar well,
13:09
then wakes up the next day realizes that he's starting to like kind of
13:13
twitch in his right arm, like his right arm is being weird, gets
13:18
a little droopy. So he's like, all right, something's going on.
13:20
I got like a concussion or brain bleeder, Like, yeah, they're having
13:24
a stroke, I mean something. So he finally goes to the doctor days
13:28
later, Amanda, and you'll never guess what they found. So it wasn't
13:31
a coconut. He didn't get him that with a coconut, okay, or
13:35
any other treed fruit. And I'm trying to think of what would be coming
13:37
at you. He was shot in the head. He had a bullet in
13:41
his head. Shut up, What are you talking about? My guy?
13:46
Matteas literally took a bullet and that nobody hang on, nobody heard the gunfire
13:52
that shot him in the head. Yes, he was bleeding. What he
13:56
just put a band aid on it and acted as though it wrapped it up.
14:01
Now you're partying on the beach. This is in Brazil, Okay,
14:03
care where you are. You might not hear. And I'm assuming it's like
14:07
a distant gunshot like one that just went stray. I don't think anybody was,
14:11
you know, walking up and pointing a gun at him. Right,
14:13
So let's go drive by shooting from a football field away whatever it may be.
14:18
You're still gonna I mean, I've never been shot in the head,
14:22
so I guess I can't speak from experience, But well, what are you
14:24
suggesting He's making it up? Yes, this is insane. There's no way
14:28
this happened. He went to bottom line, he went to the hospital and
14:31
they found a bullet in his head and it wasn't just like a flesh wound
14:33
like in the movie Taken it was just a flesh wound. No, this
14:37
actually like hit his brain. Hence the droopiness of the right arm. We
14:41
sure that there wasn't like a hole from something else, and then they pushed
14:45
a bullet in there. You're really doing some mental gymnastics to drive it.
14:48
Cam make this guy look like a lie because going back to what you had
14:52
mentioned, this feels impossible. Oheble neal. I'm just gonna act as though
14:58
he didn't get shot in the head and have no I he like you said,
15:01
that just hurt. It was bleeding. He felt like you got hit
15:03
in the head. Now, if somebody threw a rock in the I would
15:05
have turned around a bit like what the heck? So I don't know if
15:09
he did that at the least, but somebody just shoot me in the head.
15:13
Hey, Hey, who's shooting bullets in my head? Knock it off?
15:20
He's okay. Well, other than a little droopiness, he's fine.
15:24
Yeah, now here's what you need him now. Well. The real MVP
15:30
of the football weekend was Jason Kelsey supporting his brother last night at the Chiefs
15:35
game. He ripped his shirt off when Travis did a touchdown. It's going
15:39
viral and it's just graty he did a touchdown. What do I keep saying
15:43
earlier saying he made a touchdown and now it's just I mean, listen,
15:46
you're a sports girl. I get it through massive sports girl. But a
15:52
new picture that's surfacing this morning if you haven't seen it yet, after Travis
15:54
Kelsey had a shirt off and he jumped out of the suites down to the
15:58
car and folks, there was this little girl holding a Taylor Swift sign and
16:03
the mom allowed the the man without a shirt on, Jason Kelsey, to
16:07
pick him up. So he picks up this little girl, brings her up
16:11
to the suite while she's holding the sign to show Taylor like, hey,
16:15
here's one of your fans. It is the cutest. That's adorable. They
16:18
didn't bring the kid into the suite to sit with Taylor for no I'm guessing
16:22
at some point somebody's like, hey, Jason, I get that this is
16:26
a really sweet thing, but you still don't have your shirt on, and
16:27
it's my daughter that you're not her dad holding the kid up like he's you
16:30
know, the lion King Monkey totally either way, it was adorable. Everybody's
16:36
talking about it. Whether you like the Kelsey brothers, Taylor Swift do not
16:40
like the Kelsey brothers. I think there are people who are their section of
16:42
population them, yes, because they're just getting too much a toonchiit. Jason
16:48
is as likable as against Travis. I could hear your argument for not liking
16:52
shit. This would be the point where I'm gonna tell you who's playing,
16:56
and I need you to play Travis Kelsey. Okay, so the Lion's the
17:00
forty nine Ers, don't We don't need to know that, Amanda. We're
17:03
not talking about football scores. You're talking about a human interest story that happened
17:07
at the football game. Coincidentally, Yeah, we do not need to discuss
17:10
which teams are moving on. So the Lions and forty nine Ers are playing
17:14
next time, the Chiefs and the Ravens are playing. And if I was
17:17
Travis Kelce, what do you think I had to say about the game last
17:19
night? Ye me, he'd probably go all right now, So Trav,
17:26
you guys one stop away from the super Bowl, all right now? Ever,
17:33
since you pointed this out, every interview, everything I hear is just
17:37
him being a big old defen kind of all. He says, all right,
17:40
brother, all right, now preach, preach. It's so good ye
17:45
all right. Not a lot going on there between the OLDI ear drums.
17:48
All right. The Minnesota State Lottery is telling people, hey, maybe this
17:52
year you should check your tickets because they just reported that under fourteen million dollars
17:56
of prizes, yeah we're unclaimed. One was a million dollar mega Million's ticket.
18:02
Ooof yeah, you like to pick that one up if you can't.
18:04
If possible, I'd keep that one around. But they did say no worries
18:08
after twelve months. They just move it to the state's general fund. People
18:12
probably just donating, I mean, talk about a worthy cause, the government's
18:17
general fund. I want an audit on that, bad boy. I remember
18:21
when I was growing up and your parents like you can donate. I know
18:22
you do this with your kids, like you can donate to one charity this
18:26
holiday season to teach them giving back. YEP. I always went with the
18:29
government's general Let's get back to that long you're number one? Is that on
18:34
givingheartstate dot org? Right now? The government's general fund? Oh gosh,
18:38
all right, I've got a worthy cause. Well, it's official. It
18:41
was blowing up my news feed yesterday, these cicada bugs. Oh cicadas.
18:47
Yeah, so I had never heard of these, but apparently they're coming for
18:52
us. It's the year of the cicadas. So they are on a thirteen
18:56
year cycle and a seventeen year old, seventeen year cycle, and somehow they're
19:00
underground right now. There's one brood that's on a thirteen year cycle, there's
19:06
another brood that's on a seventeen year old cycle. And since eighteen oh three
19:11
they've been on different cycles. But this year they're sinking up and they are
19:15
supposed to come up in late April, and they go on like this mating
19:21
feast feast. I mean, oh you cant. I don't know, but
19:25
it's a maiding frenzy. Excuse me, Oh there you go. I don't
19:27
know. I guess I don't know what what they're mating ritual entail. They
19:33
are saying that it's going to be so intense that we've heard some of the
19:36
noise. It's like a little jackhammer or a motorcycle is the noise that these
19:40
guys make. So you're gonna hear this. A lot of this going on
19:42
outside your window. And how long do they after they do that? Do
19:45
they die? Is it? I don't know a lot about cicadas, But
19:49
I'm a little conversis sound of that. I mean, I feel like I
19:52
don't know if they die, but I mean it's gonna be exhausted. At
19:56
the very least. It's been since eighteen oh three, so it's been a
20:00
lot of years that they've been down there. I don't know they like you
20:03
said, thirteen and seven years or whatever, like whatever you said thirteen and
20:06
seven. They come up for a long time, but it's the same brood,
20:08
so you can imagine that they just get tired of the same old you
20:11
know, So now they're gonna come up and be like, hey, freshet,
20:15
who are you? I'm on over here. I don't know. I'm
20:18
a little nervous, gonna be cloudy today. Hi you twenty and two and
20:22
I was really excited about summer. But if this is what we're anticipating,
20:26
I don't know if I'm prepared. Who's this over there? Now? What's
20:30
your name? Honey? I get a minute in the morning on Big Honey
20:33
eight points seven. I gotta go in on the mandy here because I'm getting
20:36
criticized from my behavior this weekend. Now, I'll admit I am a more
20:40
passionate fan of the Green Bay Packers than most. A lot of people say,
20:42
oh yeah, I like if I like football, I like the Vikings,
20:45
I like the Packers, and I always just go, do you yeah?
20:48
Do you as much as me an intolerable fan, like that's what I
20:52
have to give you, Like you are not one of those people that super
20:55
annoying about it. You just kind of keep it close to your heart.
20:57
It is something that I believe I internalized pretty well. I'm not very loud
21:02
on social media, but inside it's during the season anyway, especially during the
21:04
playoffs, it's all I think about. Saturday morning. We are going to
21:07
the City's for this birthday party. I got a be at four am,
21:11
wide awake. I could not wait till game time, doing anything I could
21:15
just to keep my mind off of it. But that's how excited I was,
21:18
Amanda. So I already told you We're at a birthday party. My
21:21
wife's sister turned thirty this weekend. Perfect time. Everyone's celebrating in this community
21:26
room and I'm in the corner in front of the TV for four hours looking
21:30
like a nut case. Well, yeah, because there was a lot of
21:32
ups and yeah, unfortunately ended on a down. And so we're downtown or
21:37
in the north woop of Minneapolis, and everybody had already left to go to
21:40
the bar and we were hanging back to finish the game. And so as
21:44
soon as the clock hat zero in the game, my heart was broken.
21:47
Everyone's like, all right, let's go party time, Let's go to the
21:49
bar. And so I had to pick myself emotionally up off of the floor,
21:53
Amanda, and go to the bar. And we get in the door
21:56
and it's bumping, you know, there's a band body to body, everyone's
22:00
having a good time, and then there's me, miserable. Okay, I
22:07
can't even breathe, let alone raw ride up celebrating. So I literally looked
22:11
at my wife Lauren, who had just ordered to drink. We had just
22:14
paid fifteen dollars to get into this bar. I just looked at her.
22:17
I said, I can't do it. I cannot do this. I cannot
22:22
be here right now. You just couldn't. You could muster up enough energy
22:26
to just get over it for a little bit. I could not, man
22:29
No, And I feel like you know I can get through some things historically
22:33
I could. I cannot get over this. So I said, we got
22:36
to go, and she's like what. I'm like, I'm sorry, We've
22:40
got to go. And so we walked back and went to bed. It
22:42
was ten thirty. Everyone else stayed out the rest of the night, and
22:45
I just couldn't do it. You think that's a little that's irrational behavior a
22:48
little bit, But what's the point of being there? Just like drinking being
22:52
you know, listen, when you're at a bar like that, when it's
22:52
body to body and you're not having fun, it's about the last place you
22:56
want to be in the world, you know. I mean, I get
22:59
it, but I also say, like, Okay, it's a game,
23:00
it's over, let's move forward. That's where you're wrong, man, It's
23:03
not just a game, right And your sister in law turns thirty once?
23:07
Yeah, And I'm sure she had a great time. From the pictures,
23:10
it looks like fun was had by all except for me. Like it a
23:12
manua in the morning. I hope I'm not, you know, breaking any
23:15
relationships up today, but I do want you to know there are signs that
23:19
it is in fact a doomed relationship. Oh you do. And a lot
23:22
of times these are things that you know this right if you've been in a
23:26
relationship where you just know in the back of your head it ain't going anywhere.
23:30
It's over. It's just a matter of time to you know, who
23:32
decides to break up with whom. Well, man, if you're comfortable,
23:34
maybe in a situation, I could see that. How about number one?
23:37
And we see this every day. The first sign that your relationship is doomed
23:41
is if you live with your partner, but you subconsciously delay going home to
23:45
them. So you may be seen this at your workplace where it's like you
23:49
got the guy who just never leaves. It's like why why is he working
23:53
such long hours? And you kind of put it together, You're like,
23:56
I just think he would rather be here than at home totally. Or the
24:00
person like, hey, dibbs, I'll go ahead and do that on a
24:04
Saturday morning, of course, Yeah, I'm out of there, no problem.
24:08
Late night emails like he's just doing about anything to sit at achiever not
24:14
so much, Okay, it's a sign you're a marriage is doomed. Second
24:17
sign not responding to text indicator that you just you know you can't be bothered.
24:22
Yeah, that's going to be a big red flag. Yeah, well,
24:25
you just don't respond to text or what I'm just saying. If somebody
24:27
is not responding to my text messages astill Leavista baby, Well, I mean,
24:32
I think you get to a point that where it's like you don't feel
24:33
the need to respond right away. You know it's noon. Sometimes when I
24:37
respond to the good morning text, am I doomed? No way, what
24:42
Amanda? We're busy in here, Okay, I take more pride in this
24:45
radio show. Oh you're such a lie, you do? Are you having
24:49
side conversations over there? Absolutely? Well, my dad's in town right now.
24:55
He's with the kids. Yeah, making sure everything's good, ready to
24:57
go, just waiting for Arizona. Time for my husband to say good morning,
25:02
and then we'll have a little chit chat. You respond, you're such
25:03
a liar. Just think of how good this show could be if both of
25:07
us were putting in the effort, if we were so distracted like it a
25:11
minute in the morning, Big ninety eight point seven ninety Ananda stills the sea.
25:17
Let's see, did you see people freaking out over Reese Witherspoon's latest TikTok.
25:22
So they finally got snow pretty much all over America and people are going
25:26
wild. It's hilarious seeing these celebrities, like we're going sledding for the first
25:30
time in our backyard when usually you're just seeing them in the pool all the
25:34
time. Sure, well, Reese Witherspoon said, snow days are made for
25:37
Choco sinnos, and like Chaco sinnos, I know. So she did a
25:42
step by step tutorial. She walked outside shoveling snow into a coffee cup,
25:48
and people went, no she did. She didn't just go out and get
25:52
snow to make this drink. So what she did is she put the snow
25:56
in there, she added salted caramel syrup and chop glit syrup, and then
26:00
she added some cold brew. And people were losing their minds, like does
26:03
she not know you're not supposed to eat snow? It says, who right?
26:08
I mean, I used to do it with Shasta. Did you ever
26:11
have Shasta pop? Well, of course, it's part of growing up.
26:14
Yeah, so that's how we made slushies all which we want to snow.
26:17
Yes, we'd go outside and then we would grab like a strawberry Kiwi Shasta,
26:21
pour it over it, okay, delish. He turned out kind of
26:25
weird, but you know, totally healthwise. Okay. But I catch myself
26:27
with my kids too, like don't because they love it, but they'll get
26:33
the snow like right outside of the doorm, like, yeah, that's been
26:36
walked on. The snowblower has been on it. Do we not? Yeah,
26:38
you gotta find the fresh stuff, the real fluffy powder, the yellow
26:41
stuff. That's the best stuff. Oh, exactly. Face, that was
26:45
always my favorite. And following his homecoming concert on Friday in Memphis, justin
26:49
Timberlake, we knew it was happening, made an announcement he's got a new
26:53
album that has set to be released. It's his first one in six years.
26:56
Oh boy, it's called Everything I thought. I. I feel like
27:00
there's gonna be some shots at Brittany in here or maybe him growing up.
27:04
Well that doesn't sound and not to you know, who knows what it means,
27:07
but it sounds like the person who I thought I was, or you
27:11
know, like he's really looking inward correct and realizing, you know what,
27:14
maybe I was sort of a bad guy. Yeah, which is great.
27:17
That's kind of the vibe that I was getting in. But here was the
27:18
video trailer for it? What do we have here? Who? This is
27:23
a nice car? The car? Wait, it's a model the model car?
27:27
Did that? Saint jt Okay, that sounds that it's definitely not real.
27:34
Ah, there is justin Ah. Why wouldn't he tear around so dumb?
27:41
What tough is he staring at? Big announcement? New album? Un
27:45
dun dut dug. We're probably gonna hear some of it. He's gonna be
27:48
on Jimmy Fallon on Thursday, and then he's a musical guest on Saturday Night
27:52
Live. Maybe a reason to kind of peek. I don't know why.
27:56
I don't know if I'm just so disappointed because I was really hoping. I
28:00
knew this wasn't going to be an InSync announcement. Like I'm not delusional.
28:03
It was just all the teas a couple of months ago. And now I'm
28:07
like, okay, cool, we knew this was coming, right, you
28:08
know, And wouldn't you prefer this over a new InSync album anyway? It
28:11
wouldn't even be a new InSync album. We release the one and then just
28:17
go out on tour. Yeah, that's true, That's what I would watch,
28:21
And this is kind of shocking. Alec Baldwin is facing involuntary manslaughter charges
28:25
again after a grand jury in New Mexico. I guess they indicted him on
28:29
Friday. He was previously charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter. Prosecutors dropped
28:33
the case in April twenty twenty three. Gloria Allread is the attorney for Hutchinson's
28:38
family, and she said we're doing everything we can to seek the truth in
28:41
our civil lawsuit for the family and went on to say that there needs to
28:45
be accountability for the criminal justice system, which we were always kind of wondering
28:49
how that just got dismissed because he pulled the trigger. We know this,
28:53
he said he didn't. I don't know what the facts are, Honestly,
28:56
I haven't paid that much attention. But how stressful they're like, feel like
29:02
you not got away with it, because again I don't think he intentionally did
29:06
anything, of course, but the fact he was kind of like, okay,
29:08
this is over right, always loving, I wouldn't have slept a single
29:11
wink. Well, he could face up to eighteen months in prison. Sources
29:15
close to him say that he and his wife, Hilaria are very stressed out
29:21
about the situation. But I can also imagine she is losing her mind because
29:23
they have eight kids, and I think five of them are under three.
29:27
So yeah, I'd be a little stressed too if my husband was going to
29:30
prison for eighteen months. Yeah, you gotta have Daddy at home. That's
29:33
what I always say. Do you agree, yes, Daddy gotta be home.
29:41
Takeet a minute in the morning. Seven, I'd like to discuss the
29:45
fact that if you're interviewing for a job now, there are so many more
29:48
things you need to be aware of, and I'm going to help you with
29:51
that right now, because a lot of people wouldn't even know the things that
29:53
hiring managers are doing to decide whether or not you're a worthy candidate. It
29:59
goes much beyond like your experience and the adiada, how well you work in
30:02
groups. They peep in your profile, not even Amanda. Okay, So
30:04
a hiring manager, this boss has admitted to something they do in every interview
30:10
called the coffee cup test. So if you go in for the in person
30:12
interview, this boss will bring you to the breakroom and offer you a drink
30:18
and they'll give it to you in a coffee cup from the breakroom. So
30:21
then you go to the office, you do the interview, You tell them
30:25
you know how excited you are about the opportunity and you want to grow in
30:26
their business. Well, then at the end of the interview, Manda,
30:30
here comes the coffee cup test. They decide if you do or do not
30:33
ask to bring the coffee cup back to the breakroom. If you don't in
30:37
any way say like, oh where does this go? Or can I bring
30:41
this back? Can I put this? If you don't pick up after yourself,
30:42
basically I washed this cup. If you just leave that coffee cup,
30:45
if you abandon it, you're immediately scratched from recognition. Really interesting, my
30:52
gosh, I like that though. You might be like the most worthy candidate,
30:55
but if you don't bring that coffee cup back. Isn't that wild though,
30:57
because I don't know, like, that's your coffee cup. I don't
31:00
work here yet. You offered it, Like yeah, but it's not too
31:03
much to expect you to take care of it. This is what drives me
31:07
crazy. No, it's just like we kind of talk about this in general,
31:10
even when we go out to eat. You think I'm a weirdo because
31:11
I'm always like picking up. It's just not why I think you're a weirdo.
31:15
But it's respectful to like take the coffee cup in. I would not
31:19
just let it sit there. Yeah, you're there. You're not gonna do
31:22
that. You're gonna look at them and go, is there a syne?
31:26
Because there's somewhere I can put this absolutely wild, that's common sense. But
31:30
that's cutting you out of it. Shouldn't it be worth more than that?
31:34
Though? If you're you don't know, but maybe you've had job interviews like
31:38
where it goes really well and you feel like you're like super qualified, but
31:42
then you just don't hear from them or it. You know, they'd say
31:45
all we're moving on with other candidates. It's like really, now I'm thinking
31:49
bag, you know, it's like did I what have I done? You
31:52
know, well, you used to eat coffee cups? If they were styrofoam,
31:56
that could have been one red flag. You think that'd be a turn
31:59
off for an employe if they saw me munching on his styrofoam. Okay,
32:02
guy's got a great resume, but he's probably you're probably gonna be dead.
32:07
What is your attire? Do you like roll up like? Well today,
32:10
you're not usually on a Monday. You're wearing a Packers shirt? Would you?
32:15
What the heck? What did we just say three minutes ago? Did
32:17
I start this by saying let's not bring up the Packers. I'll give you
32:21
a pass there because it's true. What do you mean what a my attire?
32:24
We? Historically, Amanda, I'm a pants and a shirt guy.
32:28
Are you? Yeah? You no tie? I don't know. Do people
32:32
even do in person job interviews any morning? You know, yes, totally.
32:36
And even then if you're not, you should still be dressed up,
32:37
at least from the bottom up. I'd recommend that at minimum
