Ladies and gentlemen without further ado. It's the hypothetical situation game we play on
0:04
Fridays and it's famously called what do you do a man to hit me?
0:11
With? The first one? Play along in your car. By the way,
0:13
we're still working on that at home board game version of Oh Well,
0:16
Speaking of cars, Pike, you get a call. You want a free
0:21
car, any car you want. The only catch, of course, there's
0:26
a catch with it. You know that goes you have to ride in the
0:30
car across the country. It's the car of your dreams. But that car
0:35
that you have to ride in around the country is in the back of a
0:39
semi like the trailers that are on there with eight cars where you know they're
0:44
like bouncing around Dan Sometimes you think if you're behind one, is that going
0:49
to come off there and hit me? So again, you have to ride
0:53
that bad boy all over the country, every single road in the country in
0:57
order to get your free car, every in the country, every road.
1:00
You know how obscene that is. It's a free car, Pike. I
1:03
told you there was a little bit of a catch, So Pike, I
1:10
know, I mean just bouncing it looks a little dangerous. Can somebody intern
1:15
Grace, can you google how many total miles of roadway there are in the
1:19
United States? I think to me, that seems honestly like that would take
1:23
a lifetime. Oh, I don't know about that. I mean, And
1:26
by the way, free car, shmree car. I already drive a paid
1:29
off on Ultima. Okay that only has a little wear and tear. How
1:33
many, according to Google, four point one nine million miles. Oh geez,
1:38
okay, that's it pretty reasonable. I'll stick with the Ultima. Thanks.
1:41
Amanda. All right, you're what do you do? You're at the
1:45
bar on a Sunday with your husband Nick, saying, some dude having some
1:49
drinks the vikings just lost yet again. Your server an attractive young woman.
1:56
It's kind of rubbed you the wrong way all day, sort of making it
1:59
seem like she was annoyed every time you ordered a new drink, like it
2:01
wasn't her job. Got it. Finally, this isn't a true story,
2:06
by the way. Finally the bill comes and when it's time to fill out
2:09
the tip line, she looks at your husband Nick and says you can come
2:14
back anytime and winks. So Amanda, Oho, this one is feisty you
2:23
coming in hot ht what do you do well? How many cocktails in my
2:30
head? A Sunday's worse a Sunday A couple of Brusque's in me. I
2:37
uh, I'm gonna give her the stank guy for sure. And you say
2:44
anything, I don't think I'll say anything. I'll probably be really weird and
2:47
like make out with my husband or something, make it like really uncomfortable,
2:53
and then I'm not. I don't know if I've ever not left a tip.
2:57
No tip, lady, not a tip. No, Well, here's
3:01
a tip back up off my man, one of those you see on the
3:06
Facebook where you right, don't wink at my husband. It'll cost you all
3:13
right, pike, last one for you. So there is a man you
3:16
know and he's in danger. You don't really know me that well. It's
3:22
just this guy from DGF named Marvin. Everybody knows Marvell Starvin Marvin. Yeah,
3:27
everybody knows Marv. He hangs out at the Hill the bar over there
3:30
all the time. People just know him. Probably got his own seat at
3:35
the bar. Just everybody knows Marv. Right, he's not doing well,
3:38
though. You are the only one that is going to be able to save
3:43
his life. He just needs your kidney. That's it. Okay, So
3:46
Pike, I mean it's Marv. Everybody knows him. Stay close. Let's
3:53
go. Fifty four a lot of years left on Marv. I'm sorry,
4:00
Marv. What, No, You're the only person to keep him alive?
4:05
Why am I the only one? Do I have some sort of unique kidneys
4:09
that only match with Mark me kidney? Huh? I can't. I can't
4:12
do it. I only got two. I don't have a kidney to spare.
4:15
I don't have a kidney to spare. Wow, I'm sorry, Marv.
4:17
Learning a lot about fifty four though, that's not a bad run.
4:23
Oh God, mar You get a call, Amanda, your turn last one.
4:28
You get a call one day from a head hunter at a big oil
4:30
company in rural Alaska. They say they like the work you do. Yeah,
4:36
and they offer you ten times your salary currently to move your family to
4:42
rural Alaska to work on their oil rig. Now it's not laborous work.
4:46
They'll just have you standing there for ten hours a day holding a sign that
4:49
says careful, slippery oil ahead. So, Amanda, Monday, for your
4:58
Friday, ten hours a day, you work. You work every other Saturday,
5:04
but then you have an extra day off during the week. I'm in
5:08
ten times your salary. You're moving to Alaska. North to Alaska. Kids.
5:13
Yeah, come on, salmon fishing. We go. Okay, Audios
5:16
see ten times. Get into Gracie. You're up. You hear that you're
5:21
in the game. Gracie and Pike in the morning. In the morning,
5:26
big Nutty eight point seven. Well, it's out at the National Toy Hall
5:30
of Fame inductee nominations for twenty twenty three. Okay, I feel like,
5:35
how are they not all in there at this point? You know, we've
5:39
been doing this for how long? Yeah, I guess toys have changed a
5:42
little bit. I don't want to spoil it. I have no idea what's
5:45
on this list. But for me, I could spend an hour a day
5:48
playing with magnetiles. That is my favorite. When the kids want to bring
5:51
out their magnetized Now, what are magnetized? Ye? Those little squares are
5:56
triangles. They're different colors, and then they're magnets and you connect them together
6:00
and you can make castles or whatever. Man, that's so fun. I
6:02
love building a good castle. They're so fun. Well, without further ado,
6:06
the inductee. Nominations for this year include bop It, which was just
6:12
a I was. You wouldn't believe this man, I was the Boppet king
6:15
back in the day. Loved it. I think I'm like Spencer an entire
6:23
Saturday one day just bopping it. I loved the skip it Skip It was
6:27
good. Okay, so that's still out. I've never I don't feel like
6:30
I see anybody on TikTok or kids or anybody using the boppet. I don't
6:34
you know, I don't know what. It's great for motor scales, hand
6:36
eye coordination. Yeah, and it's good for twisting things. You guys may
6:41
have noticed that I'm exceptionally good at twisting it is that? Is that what
6:44
it is? Oh? And if you need somebody to bop it, I'm
6:46
your guy. Another nomination this year was the Cabbage Patch Kids. How's that
6:51
not in there yet? As I call it? You guys have Gracie.
6:55
Did you have Cabbage Patch kids grown up? I had a few of them.
6:57
Yeah, yeah, I feel like am I I don't really remember.
7:00
I never saved one. Ugly little things, weren't they. Yes, they're
7:02
a little nose in their little arms and they're not around. I don't think
7:06
anymore. My sister had a whole family of cabbage patch kids and we would
7:10
have to It was so annoying as her older brothers, she would have to
7:13
bring them. Like if we just went to cash wise everywhere, they had
7:15
a cart full of cabbage patch kids, Like, can we just leave them?
7:18
We leave the kids at home today. They want to stay in bed
7:23
today. Sis. The Choose your Own Adventure books don't recall that choose your
7:29
own Adventure books? Is that where you like, I don't know, you
7:31
decide the ending or something. I don't know you looked that up. But
7:34
Connects four is another one, and that's a heavy hitter. Okay. I
7:38
have some beef about that game. I bought it online for the kids because
7:42
I'm like, oh, this is gonna be great because they like Connect four
7:45
garbage. The quality of it, like you had to put it together.
7:49
It broke in two seconds, Like it's so plasticky. Now it is a
7:53
little like yet with chinsey Is that a word for it? Chin Yeah,
7:57
it feels like a slurn And I don't know, maybe I got a knockoff
8:01
connect for but I was not happy about but they having a lot of bars,
8:03
or like at my apartment, like the game room they got they got
8:05
connect for there, or you got like the life size connect for you ever
8:09
played that? Yeah, the little red reading bruss bus that comes to town.
8:11
Yea, our little neighborhood. They bring that out and that's where the
8:15
kids learned how to play it and had fun. I was on a cruise
8:18
ship years ago as a young man, and they have like this big family
8:22
game night or whatever, and they have this life size connect for and so
8:24
they call contestants up. You're in a big theater. It's like a game
8:26
show, you know. So I got called up and I just suddenly became
8:30
the villain of this cruise ship because there was a young kid who I was
8:33
going up against and I just smoked him, like no holds bar, just
8:35
smoked him. And I got in their face. I started like waving my
8:39
arms of the crowd and they're just booing and I was just yucking it up.
8:45
Kind of animal? Are you an absolute monster? Amanda? And so
8:46
the rest of the trip, everyone who saw me was just like sneering at
8:50
me, like, oh, that guy there is Choose your Own Adventure books.
8:54
I looked it up and these do not ring any bells to me.
8:56
I don't recall. Maybe made could be fiction. The little Tykes Cozy Coop.
9:03
Yeah, that's the the one that you think of like a a Christmas
9:07
card where everybody like you sit in it, the little the cozy coop,
9:11
like the little idea van kind of thing. Yellow. Yeah, yeah,
9:18
okay, got you. I think that's what it is. Nerve toys,
9:20
now that's something I can get on board. With NERF guns, NERF footballs.
9:26
It's all fun and games until they get a little wild. What NERF
9:28
guns. Yeah, kids, my nephew shot me recently. That's what I'm
9:33
saying. Absolutely offended that could that could really get somebody. You get one
9:37
in the eyeball right, absolutely, I know you didn't know where face mask,
9:41
because when you're playing with NERF guns these days. Absolutely. And then
9:43
the final toy Inductor nominated this year was the just Slime, Just simply Slime.
9:50
I was more of a ghack girl myself. Ga, oh my god.
9:54
Every time we went to cash Wise, I would get some gag emeric
9:58
really putty. It was always good. I mean when you release think I
10:01
could sit there still to this day if somebody gives me any of those things.
10:05
I can sit there and maybe it's because it's like a stress reliever or
10:09
something for me play with him for hours. Oh my gosh, we gotta
10:11
get some gag. I think you can make it now. Yeah, yeah,
10:15
they have all kinds of recipes. In the morning seven, Well,
10:24
it's today's variety, pig nighty hit point seven. What's up, Pike and
10:26
Amanda in the morning on your Friday? Yes, finally Friday weather looking great,
10:31
sunshine seventy two and look at it head of your forecast for the weekend.
10:33
Gonna be pretty nice about seventy all. We can love it. Finally
10:37
Friday, And finally somebody has stepped up and decided to bring back one of
10:41
the greatest fashion eras of our lifetimes. Oh yeah, George. Guess why
10:46
got George are back? And you can thank Generation Z for that. They've
10:50
changed how we dress, of course, and now George's are in. You've
10:54
see it everywhere. I see photos all the time, people rocking the cut
10:58
off Jean Jean Shore. I mean, I feel like the girls have kind
11:01
of been able to rock that, except for we're spending like eighty dollars for
11:03
a pair of George when you probably could create your own You absolutely not throwing
11:11
shade. But I will tell you a small town girl population three hundred and
11:15
three in Deer Creek, Minnesota, George never went away. I mean you
11:20
see you go to the like small town parades and stuff like that. You're
11:24
like, man, you've been owning these looks for years. Oh it's kind
11:28
of like the mullet. You know, everybody's coming back. They're like,
11:30
oh yeah, bring in the mullet. Some guys are like, I've been
11:31
doing that since the eighties. It ain't ever left. I love it.
11:35
You know. In Georgia, it's kind of like when I remember back in
11:37
the day when you still have holes in your jeans occasionally. Oh yeah,
11:41
but like two thousands era tunnel, like just the more ripped up Abercrombie jeans
11:46
you could find the better. And then you have the older generation being like
11:48
I could do I could make those for free. I will never forget my
11:52
grandpa. He's one of those guys. Every time he's like, what you
11:56
got in your jeans? You would you pay for those jeans? What do
11:58
you gotten your jeans? Grandpa? Mind your own business, Jeeves. But
12:03
it is I mean, when you think about it, how ridiculous, and
12:05
they're kind of back like those boyfriend jeans that people are wearing, and then
12:09
they are just I mean, the entire fronts are just completely ripped apart.
12:15
H huh. You can see more leg than you can Jean. You know,
12:18
yeah, it's basically we might as well be naked. Why not?
12:20
Then Grandpa wouldn't have to wonder so much? Did you ever rock George?
12:24
Do you have George's? No, but I do have some jeans that are
12:28
probably on the verge of becoming George because they're you know, as you know,
12:31
I wear the same ones every day. I'm trying to remember. Why
12:35
do I feel before you left to Florida? Did you do an on stage
12:39
for like Happy Harry's Rotten smash Mouth on God Rest His Soul Steve Harwell,
12:45
but no, yeah, we cut off. I borrowed Lawrence shorts, actually
12:50
my wife's shorts. Seeing just seeing a whole lot of leg from you,
12:54
it sounds like you want me to bring them back, say less, can't
12:58
wait for next summer? Like one minute in the morning. Are you a
13:05
hang out with the coworkers type of person or ea what they call a five
13:07
oh one and I'm done five o'clock because the Wall Street Journal has written this
13:13
big expose about how nowadays many employees are adopting the stricter five oh one and
13:20
I'm done attitude with their work schedules. They say, us workers are trying
13:24
to draw thicker lines between work and the rest of their life. That means
13:28
clocking out, going home, no more happy hours. They're tired of the
13:31
happy hours. Really, that is interesting. I guess for us, we
13:35
have kind of a different lifestyle. So I'm a good lunch curl. I
13:37
like, I'll meet people for lunch or yeah, hang out for a little
13:41
bit, but be hammered by four. I like to be home, yes,
13:45
and be with your family and kind of shut it down a little bit.
13:46
And I think one thing maybe is the biggest factor about this is when
13:52
you work all day and then if you go out with your friends from work,
13:54
you're talking about work, and then it's all about work all the time,
13:56
and you just kind of get to that point where you're like, is
14:00
enough, And I feel that crosses over and it gets a little lay totally
14:03
and it's just not productive. Back in the day, like it was much
14:07
more of a thing, especially without social media and whatnot that you had to
14:09
like do all that schmoozing because it literally would get you further in your career.
14:13
Like if you're not the one that's out of the happy hours and you're
14:16
not having beers with the boss, your odds are getting that promotion probably a
14:18
little smaller, probably when the guy who's out there, you know, making
14:22
memories. No, I hear you, And I do think that. I
14:24
do think a lot of people have their friends that they'd rather hang out with
14:28
their family, and you just kind of have to set that boundary. And
14:31
that's the other thing, like your job. And it's not to say you
14:33
can't have meaningful relationships at work, but at the same time, it's like
14:37
they're coworkers. You know, you don't have to have a strong you know,
14:39
you don't need to waste half your day yucking it up in the hallways
14:43
all the time. Yeah, but I mean it does maybe help your work
14:46
environment if you're having fun. So there's you know, there's two sides.
14:48
I was gonna say, I think there is a balance. I think if
14:52
you're all the time going and that's all you're doing, that's a lot different
14:56
than every once in a while and I also think it's more meaningful if you
14:58
do with every couple of months or you know, once a quarter, getting
15:03
together with everybody and having a good time, and you're like, oh,
15:05
that was great. But there's also that line of if you're together too much,
15:09
gonna make it a little oh for sure. You know. I found
15:13
this interesting stat as I was digging through research for this story. Younger Americans
15:18
are drinking less, they say to Share, people between eighteen and thirty four
15:20
who say they drink alcohol at all has fallen all the way to sixty two
15:24
percent. It's crazy. Dustin from Happy Harry's Bottle Shops he uh well dry
15:28
January, he brought in some like really cool cocktails, and then a couple
15:31
this summer, and he's even said that, he said, it's amazing how
15:35
many people are going to mocktails and how many bars if you go to a
15:37
bigger city, how they have bars that are just mocktail bars, just coming
15:41
up with the exact same drink, just no alcohol. But some of them
15:45
have like kind of the flavor of it still, which is really weird.
15:48
Yeah, And I've had the thought too, you know, as we we
15:50
do enjoy having a drink or two you and I. You know, guilty
15:54
is charged with the drinking, but you know, it would be nice to
15:56
just have a cut, you know, because I do like the taste after
15:58
what I remember the beer or drink you ever had. You're like, how
16:02
can how on earth do people enjoy this? Like people think I just drink
16:04
wine because it's whatever. I love parrying wine and food like that is that's
16:08
my thing. I really try to enjoy it. Yeah, but you probably
16:14
feel that way now about I pas like the flavor of it is really good,
16:18
and you you grow up and you get a palette and it does taste
16:22
good. But don't you also think that duh, I don't know, like
16:25
CBD and like things like that, like gummy is that generation that's their choice?
16:30
Absolutely? Absolutely young people now now with it being legalized all over the
16:33
place, you know, it's like, yeah, you know, I can
16:36
still get a little loosey goosey and have some fun, have some laughs and
16:38
then wake up feeling pretty normal. Like here I am selling myself on it.
16:47
Like in Amanda in the Morning on Big Nutty eight point seven, you're
16:51
ready ready, that's he is piping hots today. No, Amanda stills the
16:56
Sea looks see. Despite rumors that one of the reported guests on Taylor Swift's
17:03
nineteen eighty nine Taylor's Version re record, It's never ever ever gonna happen.
17:07
There's been a lot of rumors that maybe Mattie Healy or nineteen seventy five We're
17:11
going to be on the album, and she's not having that. Well,
17:14
who said that? Why would she do that? The guy she dated for
17:17
four minutes? I think because he was originally on it, wasn't he Wasn't
17:21
he a part of some of those songs? It's on Gracie Grab your mic.
17:23
You look completely baffled that a man would throw out a rumor like that
17:27
nineteen eighty nine's album. Was Maddie Healy on that I know of? You
17:32
would know? I know Jack Antonoff was part of it. Okay, where'd
17:34
you get that wild rumor? Well? I knew that he was on some
17:37
songs, so I just kind of threw it out there with Laye Milly.
17:40
I knew he was a musicians. Sure, How am I even credible at
17:48
this point? I mean, honestly, this story's probably fake too. No,
17:51
this is actually really exciting because I was very excited about trollscery and the
17:56
fact that I'm going to be able to take my kids to the theater going
18:00
see this movie. After watching the full trailer this morning, I mean,
18:03
Pike, this looks like a good movie. Oh, absolutely, every such
18:07
a job of these new kids movies. Well, yeah, because it's also
18:10
jokes for the parents. I mean, there's so many like things in there.
18:12
And I'm sure people felt that way about some of the other Disney movies
18:17
back in the day. But you don't think Lion King had a couple couple
18:18
of lines for the adults couple dingers in there. Well, we did get
18:22
a little sneak of instincts new song right before in Sync starts singing in this
18:27
trailer, the trolls are doing just Backstreet Boys, Yeah, and it sounds
18:33
great. You're like, Okay, this is good. And then in Sync
18:34
comes in with their new song better Place You tell Me just I mean,
18:48
yeah, it sounds great. I mean it's a little tease. It's gonna
18:51
be good. You know, Like nowadays, there's just like such a formula
18:55
for creating like a Bobby Pops on I suppose, like, how could they
18:57
come out with a stinkard? They're not it's gonna be a good song too,
19:00
because I forget that, you know, admittedly not a big trolls guy,
19:04
but I remember that can't stop the feeling was from trolls, right,
19:07
yes? Yeah, I mean, geez yeah, they got a little track
19:10
record. So are you meaning to tell me you think by Christmas in Sync
19:14
is going to be back on the airwaves here, I'm thinking every wedding you'll
19:17
be out for the next like ten years. Better place going to be there,
19:19
all right? And I guess this is good news, but also still
19:25
very concerning to me. Britty Spears is no longer seen, her former housekeeper
19:29
and convicted felon. We found out about him this week, Paul Richard Solis.
19:33
I guess they had a short flinging together after Sam left, and she
19:37
just looked up with him a couple of times. And now she's admitting that
19:40
she did not know about his criminal past, and she is no longer in
19:42
communication with him. So all that aside. My concern is, is you
19:48
just let anybody into clean your house, and you just let anybody in around
19:51
you, like, how was there no background checks on any of them?
19:55
Felons need jobs too, and if they can aunt clean toilets. Then what
20:02
But my second, if you're Brittney Spears on your on that caliber and there's
20:06
nobody around you vetting or protecting you to some degree, I guess just seems
20:11
a little weird to me. You thinks she was playing it a little fast
20:14
and loose. I think she might have been yep, like in a minute
20:18
in the morning on DAG ninety eight point seven. Now here's what you need
20:26
to know. Do not forget tomorrow morning at seven am, the implosion of
20:30
the Laskowitz high Rise is going to be happening. Anybody who is not aware
20:33
of it, and you live in that area, it's gonna be a little
20:37
startling at seven am when the implosion happens. They do say that their exclusion
20:41
zone from five thirty to nine thirty is when people are going to be out
20:45
of that area. There are a lot of people that want to go down
20:47
and do the viewing. So again that's going to be at about seven o'clock.
20:49
They'll have everything. Yeah and wait please do I mean, I will
20:53
say yeah, bringing your kids out. I remember when I was young and
20:56
they did the same thing to one of the dorms at MSUM. It's a
21:00
pretty tall building. My stepmom and my dad brought me out there, and
21:03
it was like it was a cool memory. You know, there's a cool
21:03
thing to see it just there's just a building explode. I mean yeah,
21:07
because you see it in the movies. You see some of that. It's
21:10
very not very often that people do stuff like this, but I will say
21:12
r I p to what was a pretty iconic building here in the Fargo area.
21:17
I mean the growing up that, Like to me, that building was
21:19
taller than the Empire State Building. Yeah, when I was kiss I'm like,
21:22
oh my, I remember when I was a little flying into Fargo to
21:26
see like whenever I was in Colorado and doing that, like that was the
21:29
only I was it. Right, it's all you saw. Now they're gonna
21:33
put like a bank or something there. I'm sure they're probab condos or something.
21:37
And Taylor Swift's Era's tour. The movie is hitting theaters on October thirteenth,
21:42
and I just can't believe that people are going to see this movie.
21:45
I don't know why. It's one thing if you're going to the concert,
21:48
but now people are spending so much money to go see because they didn't get
21:52
tickets to the tour, or maybe if you're like in turn Gracie went to
21:56
two of her shows and you also got tickets to see this. You're just
22:00
given her so much money. I mean, her debut weekend is going to
22:03
be they're estimating one hundred million dollars. Hey, just for this movie.
22:07
Just milking every bit of this, just hype of the aerostour. It's crazy.
22:12
Just in comparison, Barbie was the biggest movie of the year and it
22:15
opened at one hundred and fifty five million dollars at the box office. Man,
22:19
it would be interesting. Although, as I've stated after the VMA,
22:22
is getting a little annoyed. Aren't we getting a little annoyed of her?
22:26
Gracie? I mean, there are some people who have been really annoyed for
22:30
for a lot of years. To be completely honest, as you know,
22:36
we all like Risa's peanut butter cups, nickers. What other good items are
22:41
you going for it? You straight to the top. Those are the big
22:44
boys. Yeah, everyone's while, we'll do some skittles, But a thousand
22:47
grand, million bar whatever they're called, the hundred grand bar, that is
22:51
a good one. Now, maybe you want to switch things up this Halloween
22:52
Kraft Hyn's company has planned to release three new gummy candies for Halloween, the
22:57
Kraft Mac and Cheese noodle, the Oscar Meyer hot Dogs and the cloths and
23:03
Pickles. No great gummies. No, like when you get jellybellies or anything
23:08
like that and they like the popcorn one or something that tastes off. I
23:12
can't do the texture of that. Thinking that maybe the noodle for the mac
23:17
and cheese would be the closest, but I'm not gonna be able to have
23:19
an oscar Meyer hot dog gummy and have that taste like a hot dog.
23:25
Why not you ever just drink hot dog water because you like the flavor.
23:29
What are you doing putting us all on a diet this morning? Gross?
23:33
That's what I'm doing. You drink hot dog water now? I like because
23:37
it's sterile and I like the taste. Not you a liar, So just
23:41
salty gross water. You ever need to hydrate yourself, You need a little,
23:44
Oh it's a full, it's chock full of electrolyte. And try it
23:47
sometimes and that soundstimes You forget a hot dogs in there and you go,
23:49
oh my god, you aren't killing me right now? You listen, No,
23:56
you listen, this is me. This is me raw and authentic,
24:00
and if you can't handle it, you can leave the I love your unauthentic
24:03
or your authentic self that you're on putting out there. Thank you, oh
24:07
girl. Anyway, anyway, sunshine today, Hi you seventy two weather.
24:11
It is going to be great tomorrow for tailgating about seventy We could actually see
24:15
like eighty eighty five early next week. I love it, Amanda in the
24:19
morning, big nutty eight point seven. It is time for the Voice of
24:22
the Bison a little way bam. Thank you, Sam. Thanks for our
24:27
friends over a Gateway Chevrolet. We do it every Friday, we check in
24:30
with the Voice of the Bison. Sam. Thanks for popping in today.
24:33
Hey, thanks man, I appreciate it. Another good weekend of Bison football
24:37
coming up, and good to have Pike here with us. Sam missed last
24:41
you know, yeah, we really missed him. I know it's just you
24:44
and Amanda, but I do have to say to you, Sam, thank
24:45
you for carrying the team. I'm come on these a little and the hold.
24:52
I had some serious questions. I mean, first of all, it
24:56
was your first Bison home game, so let's talk about your tailgate experience.
24:59
You don't my tail I gotta be completely honest with you, guys. I
25:03
didn't get to do as much as I wanted to. I was able to
25:06
kind of get a like a sampling, A sampling this week will be a
25:08
little more because I woke up and I was like, you know what,
25:11
I'm gonna sleep. It'd have been a long, long wake. So I
25:15
was in my pajamas walking through Hornbockers, getting some groceries to get a little
25:19
breakfast going before going over to the tailgate. So jammers do you wear?
25:25
Oh, that's a good question. Actually I shouldn't even call it. It
25:29
would just shorts a T shirt. I mean, yeah, do you have
25:32
like a full on onesie going on when you went to the now that's cooling
25:36
off? Are you gonna have like jammie pants? You know, I've never
25:38
wore pants. I've always kind of wanted to sleep cold, so jammy pants.
25:44
But I've been kind of this point, like to give you all this
25:45
free Bison gear when you get here. They haven't given me a set of
25:48
pajamas, and that would have been a nice touchy ndsc If for're listening,
25:53
we're gonna need some Bison jammy pants for man, man of the sense I'm
25:57
getting here and I A lot of people are wondering, does the voice of
26:00
the NDCU Bison sleep naked? I'm a cool sleep that's you. We don't
26:08
need to make Why do we got to do this? Just leave it to
26:12
the imagination. Yeah. Yeah. In other news, he made a very
26:18
bold statement last week. You said it was going to be a complete shutout,
26:21
and you were almost there, almost there, man, I told you
26:23
guys, right, did I tell you? And the starters had a shut
26:27
out. They got the touchdown with some of the backups, and so,
26:30
I mean he didn't want to embarrass them completely. They had to give up
26:33
some sort of consolation prize. But yeah, I was sitting there, Yes,
26:37
gonna get this shut out, and then late in the fourth quarter they
26:40
end up getting a touchdown. Do you have a little I don't like to
26:42
bring up my like high school experience in my sports and everything. See he
26:45
always brings it back there. There's one topical here because we had a shut
26:48
out going when us a sophomore on the team and d so the backups got
26:52
in. My buddy was the backup hunter, so he got to punt it
26:55
was a real windy day over there, and he punted it straight up in
26:59
the air and it blew backwards through the gave up. The Shott seniors never
27:03
forgave him. Oh my god. Yeah, he would never be able to
27:07
live that down. That is brutal. I mean you're talking about it twenty
27:10
years later. Pike. His name A chill. What's his name? Cody
27:15
Branner If you're listening, we'll never right under the bus, Cody never forget
27:21
man, nice kid, all right, Marl liisentiale gating. You're gonna get
27:25
out in your jammy pants. Yeah, see what's going on. But then
27:29
also there's a big game. What do we got Yeah, big game.
27:32
We're playing another team that's called the Bears. Last week it was the main
27:36
Black Bears. This week we're playing the Central Arkansas Bears. Okay black Bears,
27:40
as were different. They're just like normal bears. Yeah, jetty Bears.
27:45
Yeah, I mean like their purple, purple is their color. But
27:48
there's no purple. There's no purple Bear that I'm aware of. What do
27:51
we call him? The pool Bears? There you go, yeah, care
27:53
bears If they're that's cute. No, I forgot about care bears. That's
27:57
kind of a throwback, right they're a little bellies had the rainbow, Yeah
28:02
yeah, or Teletubbies where they bears they kind of like you know what they
28:07
were, they were like aliens? Yeah, what is this stake? If
28:11
you guys see this thing about the aliens that they found in Mexico, we've
28:15
seen it. Yeah, we talked about it all day. I mean Amanda
28:18
doesn't believe it. She's never been a believers. Never the corpse, right,
28:22
it looks like et Yeah, it does look like I mean, there's
28:25
no it looks like they just made it as like a publicity stunt. That's
28:27
kind of I oh, you don't say, yeah, that's what it's got
28:32
a base. But fossils were formed thousands of years ago? Is in an
28:34
algae cave? Sam? Well, I know, man, like I believe
28:38
it Aliens? Like personally, I really do. I believe it. Aliens
28:41
Like they're out there somewhere. Are they are those like they're right here before?
28:45
Yeah? Yes, I mean I don't remember what did they say,
28:48
like where did they find those? Or you know there were there were some
28:52
missing details, Sam, But bottom line yet yeah right right? Okay,
28:56
b game, this will be a closer game the last week. I think
29:00
it's actually going to be a pretty good matchup there. There's got a pretty
29:03
good program and Boobears were not Yeah they're not too bad. Yeah, you
29:07
gotta get a little respect to the Poobears there. I always do. Yeah,
29:11
they're they're like top fringe, top twenty five. They're not ranked,
29:15
but they're receiving votes in the top twenty five polls. So they're a really
29:18
good team with some good dudes, some good running backs, some good guys
29:22
on defense. So I think, think you're the pieser Challenge, but you
29:25
can't pick against the Pison would never so I think at DSU wins. But
29:27
it's a little closer than we think, which I also like though. When
29:30
you're going to the games and know a lot of people love going, especially
29:33
when they're home, it's nice to have a closer game because sometimes you're like,
29:36
okay, guys, come on, what are we got going on here?
29:38
Right right? I mean, I said she's going to the game too,
29:41
Yeah, for sure going. I might go. Anybody looking to baby
29:45
sit a couple of little kids tomorrow, say two watch them up in the
29:48
booth. Sam. They're just they're great kids. So you know what,
29:51
Yeah, it could be like a field trip, I guess. Yeah.
29:55
You have screaming in the background of the radios. Be nice touch Yeah,
30:00
people listening back. Oh yeah, wham bam. Thank you SA Gateway Chevrolet.
30:04
We do it every week. You're the best, Sam, Thank you,
30:07
guys. Man to Pike, you guys are fun. Can't wait for
30:10
next week. That's what they say about us. But I'm just worried about
30:11
you getting those jammers. Yeah, yeah, send them my way. And
30:17
as you were, if there's a fan out there, where are they?
30:19
Nobody would love to see you in a set of jammies more than me.
30:22
Okay, Sam, Mike you're crazy man, so good. Thanks for putting
30:26
up with us, Sam. Of course, guys, thanks for having me
30:30
Go Buys and
