Pike and James Today (Amanda day off) · Podcast - Big 98.7

0:00
Whatever, And now though, it's time to discuss these weird things that we
0:05
do. I mean, is it weird? That's what we call it.
0:08
We bring things up that you know, just seem a little odd but you're
0:10
not sure, and then we just you know, we just really see.
0:13
This is James is about seeing. So we had Double Check as a special
0:17
guest show. What would you like to run through the ringer? That?
0:20
Is it weird? Ringer? Is it weird? Pike that I don't care
0:23
if I'm out at an establishment and I find a hair in my food.
0:26
I just picked that boy out and I just keep eating. Really, Oh
0:29
yeah, that's so funny you say that, don't care. I have no
0:32
issue with it. Whatever. It doesn't even, it doesn't even I don't
0:35
even think about unless someone mentions it to me. I'm like, oh hair,
0:38
and I flick and they're like what did you just flick? And I'm
0:40
like a hair and they're like, ooh. You know you didn't immediately call
0:44
the police and have this place shut down. You didn't grab the plate and
0:47
throw it against the wall as the food runs down, you're screaming, give
0:50
me my new food. Oh. I didn't do any of that. I
0:53
ate the food. Wow, Now it was delicious. Is there a line
0:55
for you though, Like the type of hair what I mean, animal?
1:00
You know what I'm saying. Length, Like if we're talking body hair versus
1:03
head hair, can you tell, oh, there's a certain coarseness, well
1:07
my beard hair. I mean, you just never know where it's coming from.
1:10
Though. That's the other problem, Pike is. You know, sometimes
1:11
I'll be just kind of like doing this move when I'm thinking really strong and
1:15
scratching my chin and I got a beard. Yeah, sometimes I'll accidentally drop
1:19
my own hair in my own food, So I don't know whose hair it
1:22
is. If it's mine, why is my hair any better off or worthy
1:26
to still eat the meal but someone else's is not. I agree with the
1:30
head hair. Even yesterday I was having lunch and pulled out the longest I
1:34
mean, it was in my mouth. You know you can feel it.
1:37
Yeah, you start pulling, it just feels like it just goes forever,
1:38
like one of those magicians those ribbons on their hat. Whoa. And I
1:46
just pulled it out and I kept eating, and then I remember I brought
1:49
it up and the person I was with was just like what you just thought
1:51
I'm the same way. But now if we're talking like coarse, curly,
1:55
dark hair much like my beard, hair, much like your beard. But
1:57
obviously you're gonna assume the world, right you know how that would possibly happen.
2:02
I don't know, you're gonna assume American pie situations, and then at
2:07
that point I may ask for a new dish. Yeah, yeah, I
2:12
just don't feel like it's uh, it's gonna, I mean, infect the
2:15
whole plate. I mean, you likely you won't pass away, no doubt
2:20
that I'd die. No, No, I don't. I'm gonna go not
2:22
weird. That weird? Now? Is this weird? Is it weird that
2:25
when I eat pasta I prefer it to be pretty pretty mushy, to the
2:30
point of like darniar liquid, you know. And the reason I bring it
2:34
up is because my wife, Laurens, she is so like she loves the
2:38
phrase al dentelde pasta is the best. You guys just like saying it.
2:45
That's all. You're just like her. She just wow. You know,
2:46
first of that sounded like a derogatory remark because I'm just like her. Imagine
2:53
being just like my wife. Boy's brutal. I feel, I feel lucky
2:57
and blessed every day, Pike, lucky. She doesn't listen, isn't at
3:00
this moment anyway. So every time it's like she's like, no, just
3:06
don't let it go too long now, And I'm like this, this pasta
3:08
is uncooked. This is law pasta. She's like, no, it's al
3:13
dente. I'm like, I know, listen, I know you likes saying
3:15
that word because you know what it means and it sounds cool. But we
3:20
don't want to. There shouldn't be a crunch when I'm eating my spaghette.
3:23
Fully agree. It should not be crunchy. Yet it should also not be
3:28
when you have an entire bucket of spaghetti and it's just you try to spoon
3:32
it out and it comes out all at once. It should not be all
3:35
stuck together. Pike, I like a certain amount of mushu it. Okay,
3:38
that is how I was raised. You know. It's one of those
3:40
as an adult you ever think back to your childhood and kind of just it
3:45
clicks. You're like, oh, okay, that's why I am the way
3:46
I am. Yeah, but my stepmom would make the spaghetti and we always
3:50
have on Christmas spaghetti, which is odd, but we do. And anyway,
3:53
she's right. I love that. I told my mom I wanted to
3:54
have lasagna first Christmas this year. I love a lazan. Oh, it's
3:59
a heck of a holiday day. Why not? What I mean, whate
4:00
else you're gonna go. You're doubling down on turkey. That's what my mom
4:02
wanted to do. And I was like, why are we doing this?
4:04
We have to stop the madness. Mom. I'm all about like an Easter
4:09
turkey or something. You know, throw me a midsummer for the July turkey
4:13
turkey twice a year. Good turkey within one month. It's ass Give me.
4:17
There's no other spaghetti holiday, you know what I mean? There is
4:19
it? I mean the feast of what is it? San Gennaro? But
4:23
nobody knows what that is. I'm just learning of it now. In fact,
4:27
in a minute in the morning, Big Natty eight point seven, you
4:29
ever steal from a hotel? Yes? You do. You're that you You're
4:32
a criminal, is what you're telling me. Absolute criminal. Wow, I
4:35
had no IDEA little shampoo bottles and little soaps piked their mind. And once
4:41
you agree though that those are sort of there for the taking, you know
4:44
what I mean, because they're they're perishable, yeah, right, like they
4:46
were gonna be used anyway, and they probably replace them. I don't know
4:48
if Jassam or not, but I figure they would probably. It seems to
4:53
me that they would. You ever get into, especially if it's a nice
4:55
hotel. You're not getting into the shower, and you know, opening up
4:58
a half used bottle of sham I was so little. I usually use it
5:01
all in two days anyway, If I'm true, it's true. It's better
5:04
bringing your own, that's for sure, But I tend to you know,
5:06
there's always at least one towel that comes home in it really jack and pillows
5:11
lately, pillows even too, well, if it's far away and I got
5:14
a long drive. Sometimes if I forget a pillow at home, I need
5:16
one. You're taking it from the hotel. You're sick, puppy you how
5:19
many people have used these pillows? You were disgusted with me? Right?
5:23
No, I really here, I'm about to tell you a mere twenty five
5:26
percent of people have admitted to stealing from hotels, which I thought was a
5:30
staggering number. What come to find I'm sitting across from the worst one of
5:33
them all. Yeah, there's just just an absolute the head of the whole
5:36
operation, Jeffrey Dahmer of pillows stealing. But now you're not alone, because
5:41
they do say the most common items stolen from a hotel are the of course,
5:46
shampoo and conditioners, bathrobes, towels, hangars, pens, batteries and
5:54
cutlery. Ooh, batteries. That's a good idea. You're right, because
5:57
that's a heck of it. Also perishable, right, they're gonna run out
6:00
eventually. So what's stopping you from opening up that stupid alarm clock nobody's using
6:04
anyway? Right, Well, I was thinking of the remote. Oh they're
6:08
remote too. Yeah, get a couple of double a's out of there.
6:11
Can you ever have enough? I'm always looking for a double a pike.
6:14
There's one right here. I'm like, I could use this just once in
6:16
my life. Hasn't at all? Would I like to say, Oh,
6:18
what kind of batteries doesn't need double A? I have two right here,
6:21
they're new. There you go, I'm taking I'm you know, taking one
6:28
from the bedroom remote to put it in the new toy, you know,
6:31
flipping them around. For some reason, if you reverse the batteries. There
6:34
might be a little juice left in it one time. I'd like to have
6:40
a stock of batteries by someday. But dare to dream. Pike, you
6:43
ever stole in the bathroom now because I'm too big? They never fit?
6:47
Oh man, you know you're just having teen JP what he is six?
6:51
Sizeable guy? Yeah, sizeable, girthy if you're a girthy yeah, no,
6:56
I'd like to get you in a bathroom. But you know what,
7:01
we shouldn't be a lot that could be arranged. I know I've said this
7:04
before, but when Amanda's gone, they should just don't unplug my music or
7:09
something that's unplugged. It taking Amanda in the morning, dine seven ready,
7:15
that's he is piping hot today, Amanda stills the sea was hot. Anyway,
7:23
good morning, I'll be doing the tea for Amanda. You know,
7:25
McCauley Culkin. A lot of people really haven't heard the guy talk since he
7:29
was in Home Alone back in the day, and the other the other movies
7:30
he was in, like Richie rich Pagemaster, remember that one. I do
7:34
not no, not that one, the good Son. Maybe he wasn't in
7:38
the page Master. He was played a murderer in the good sound what I
7:41
know him? And Elijah Wood. Yeah, dude, it is a wild
7:44
movie. Anyway, he's finally got his Hollywood Walk of Fame star. That's
7:47
right, McCauley culkin etched in history in Hollywood and it was his thank you
7:53
speech. A lot of people were like, what the heck. I haven't
7:56
heard him talk in a long time, and I never thought he sounded like
8:00
this. Here he is talking about his wife Brenda's song and thanking her and
8:03
anyway, listen, you are absolutely everything. You're the only person happier for
8:07
me today than I am. So Yeah. To wrap things up, and
8:11
in the spirit of the holiday season, I just want to say, Merry
8:15
Christmas. You fill the end. He did it. He did the thing
8:20
from the movie. I love it. He didn't sound like the guy Merry
8:22
Christmas. God, that's such a good I could go all day with the
8:26
quotes. But believe he does sound I mean it's it's doesn't sound like him
8:31
as a kid, that's for sure. But who else doesn't sound like It
8:35
sounds like Michael Jackson talking, doesn't it, Which is a weird parallel given
8:39
the fact that they were like good friends. You know Michael jam Maybe he's
8:43
like trying to emulate him in a way. They were good friends, were
8:46
they? That's that's the rumor. Buddies they hung out a lot. I
8:48
don't know. I don't know what they were doing. Speaking of McAuley,
8:54
cullick and Pike, he was in the Pagemaster along with look at this cast,
8:58
Christopher Lloyd, Patrick Stewart, Whoopy Goldberg. Holy cow, what I'm
9:03
gonna have to watch that bad Boy? That just seems like a winner.
9:07
Ed Begley Junior, what are we doing with this film? That's really impressive.
9:11
That's a heck of an no wonder. He's got a star in the
9:13
Walk of Fame, Florence Pugue, who's a drill hot actress at the moment
9:18
right. She's in the sequel of Dune, which was a big award winning
9:22
film, Dune. Remember Dune. Dune? Yeah, well out during COVID
9:26
Pike sure did well. Dune too is on the way her in the cast
9:31
her out promoting it. It is a sequel, and so she was standing
9:33
on stage like some sort of event. It was like a comic con type
9:37
thing promoting the film. When suddenly she got hit in the face with what
9:41
appears to be a shrimp and somebody just hucked a shrimp and it drilled her
9:48
right in the face. Now the video, yeah, that's one of those
9:50
things you can't help but laugh. I mean, she'll be okay, don't
9:52
worry. Did she have a reaction where she was like, ah, it
9:56
was just by the way, they haven't caught the who were the girl?
10:00
Who didn't that be got you gotta yeah, it's a dude. Did it
10:03
have any sort of cocktail, sauce or butter on it? There was no,
10:07
There was no visible splatter. You know, maybe there was a light
10:11
butter sauce, but no, no cocktail. Sounds delicious, I know,
10:15
I'm so honestly, it would have been awesome if she would have sat coming
10:18
and just open her mouth when you know what I love like, don't get
10:22
me wrong, love going to the ocean and eating fresh shrimp. But I
10:26
don't care give me that little stupid ring from the grocery store with the cocktail
10:30
shifts, with the sauce in the middle, that whole thing. My god,
10:33
there's no problem. Oh missus Swift Last night supporting her man yet again
10:39
at the Packers game, that's right at historic lambeau Field and green Bay,
10:43
Wisconsin, where the Chiefs, defending Super Bowl champions, by the way,
10:48
were defeated by the Green Bay Packers, who are now suddenly the hottest team
10:52
in the NFL. Anyway, good day for you, But I could go
10:56
on as a Packer Fanily, let's talk about the fact that Taylor Swift got
10:58
on a private jet from Kansas City. So this tells me that she's just
11:03
staying, which she went from Kansas City to Green Bay. She's hanging at
11:07
his place. Has he got a place there? Not in Green Bay?
11:11
No, I mean in Kansas City. Yeah, so he just bought this
11:13
new mansion. She's moved in with him, it appears, or at least
11:16
temporarily. And so it's such a and you know, it's interesting. So
11:20
she did fly this, you know, quick little trip to Green Bay,
11:22
sat in the press box next to Brittany Mahomes. Didn't seem to smile once.
11:28
Today. It's just to me, I got a weird vibe, you
11:31
know what I mean. I've been saying it since the beginning. Pike it's
11:33
all fake. I don't know. It's Here's an interesting theory that a friend
11:37
of mine told me over the suggested over the weekend that she's just out there
11:41
dating, having fun and maybe her plan was just to have a little fling
11:45
with a football guy, and now the world and all of her fans are
11:48
obsessed and it's such a public thing. Well, even if she wanted out
11:52
at this point, if there was enough for her, you know, you
11:56
can't. That's actually I'm kind of blown away by that theory, Pike.
11:58
I feel like I need to reflect on it. That is a pretty good
12:01
point, Like she feels like she can't break up with him now because now
12:03
if you do now, you're gonna go immediately back after you've been in some
12:07
long term relationships, you don't want to go back to the whole girl who
12:11
just dates around and you know, breaks hearts, gets her heart broke and
12:13
writes songs about it. I don't think she wants to go back to that,
12:16
which is unfortunate. If that's the case, now, maybe they're happy,
12:18
right, Maybe they're in love and they're gonna get married. I don't
12:22
know. But to me, the vibe I got is she was sitting there
12:24
next to Brittany Mahomes, and maybe that's the reason she was unhappy. I
12:26
don't know. That woman does seem to be quite insufferable, I know.
12:30
And she Okay, So they kept showing the press box and Brittany Malmes is
12:33
leaning over, just talking and talking. Taylor Sweat is just like, why
12:37
did I let this girl into my life? Oh, Amanda in the morning
12:41
on Sage seven. You ever quit a job in like a very spectacular way?
12:48
You know, we all fantasize about it. I was sure too.
12:50
Yeah, I hate this place. I'm gonna walk out and tell everybody bleep
12:54
you and bleep yeah and you. This guy's been stealing money from the Call
12:58
for a spect anyway. So this guy he wanted to quit his job.
13:01
Okay. Now, his job, though uniquely, is a prison transporter.
13:07
Okay. So he's the one that loads up the inmates on the bus and
13:11
transport them, you know, between prisons or what have you. And so
13:13
while he was on one job driving prisoners from Orlando to North Carolina, he
13:18
decided, I don't like this. I don't like this job. Maybe one
13:22
of his superiors riding him, yep. Maybe he took a day off to
13:26
go to his kids choir concert and his boss gave him a hard time.
13:30
And he thought, I don't need this. I can get with my resume.
13:33
Yeah, with my prisons a transporter, I could get a job anywhere.
13:37
Any one of these prison systems isn't like you to have me. I
13:39
could drive anything. So he decided, I'm not gonna stop in North Carolina,
13:45
where I'm supposed to be dropping these prisoners off. I'm just gonna keep
13:48
going. Interesting way to quit, just keep driving North. Just kept driving
13:52
to run for the Canadian border, did he? Unfortunately? You know,
13:56
i'mlike quitting your job. I'm assuming quitting his job as a felony. And
14:00
so my man has been arrested and now charged with felony larceny and kidnapping.
14:07
Yeah, dude's going to prison. Quitting your job is a felony. Now,
14:13
let me ask you this. Yeah, okay, No, I don't
14:15
want to not in a blanket sense, if you quit right now, James,
14:18
I don't think we're throwing in the old Cast County slammer if you will,
14:22
clanker. Yeah, but if you're doing prison stuff, possibly yeah.
14:26
So would this be considered ironic that he's going to prison after quitting his prison
14:33
inmate transport job. I have to call Atlantis Moore set I'm not sure about
14:35
the I don't even know because she said she doesn't seem to have a grasp
14:39
on it either. No, you know a lot of people have said over
14:41
the years that her song none of those things are ironic. While a total
14:45
banger, absolute classic in all time, nevertheless not ironic. Like in a
14:56
Minute in the Morning on Big Nutty eight point seven. You know, sometimes
15:00
you just wake up and something happens your day just gets off to a horrible
15:03
start. I have noticed that you are, you feel you seem a little
15:07
off today by well, I am. Something happened to me this morning that
15:11
never has happened to me. And as soon as it did, well,
15:13
one, I thought I was gonna die, and then two I thought,
15:16
well the heck, that's a new way to have your day start off horribly.
15:18
You know, a lot of time you can wake up, let's say,
15:20
didn't sleep. Well, that's one. You wake up, you look
15:22
at your phone it didn't charge for some stupid reason. Things like that,
15:26
right, you step on a lego, walk into the bath. Oh the
15:28
worst. Well, I got up and didn't sleep great. But the Packers
15:33
won last night, so I was up late watching that incredible victory, feeling
15:37
good, couldn't sleep, but you know I was willing to get past that
15:39
because of the reason. Well, anyway, I get to the bathroom.
15:41
Time to brush that stanky morning breadth out of my mouth. Right, So,
15:45
we had just got this new toothpaste. It's got charcoal in it for
15:48
some reason. You know, I have no idea what that does, but
15:50
we call it is a superfood, Is that right? Yeah? So I
15:52
get to the bathroom and I load up my toothbrush with this said toothpaste with
15:58
charcoal in it. And as I put the brush up to my mouth,
16:00
I don't know what happened. I must have inhaled violently at the perfect time
16:04
because the gob of toothpaste, which was generous you like to cover that whole
16:08
brush, Oh yeah, suddenly is in my throat. I inhale it directly
16:15
down my throat pipe, and now I'm choking. The globule is vacuumed from
16:22
the brush. Yeah, exactly, sucked down like a vacuum. How does
16:26
that happen? No idea, and I had no idea to like the moment
16:30
I realized it was the weirdest thing. It was like you know in movies,
16:32
and they get shot and they don't realize and suddenly they put their hand
16:34
on their stomach. Yeah, there's blood coming on. That was like that
16:37
moment, I'm like, what happened? What am I feeling right now?
16:40
Why is my throat on fire? I can't breathe because it was so generous
16:44
of a glob that my windpipe is totally, you know, clogged. So
16:48
I'm like choking, and I have to immediately tell myself, like, it's
16:51
just toothpaste. You can't possibly choke to death from toothpaste. But then the
16:56
burning comes in because the charcoal and whatever the heck else is in peroxide or
17:00
whatever tooth baste is made up. And so I'm gagging, trying to like
17:04
decide if I should throw up or what needs to happen, Like, what
17:08
does happen if you swallow toothpaste? I don't know. I know it says
17:11
you're not supposed to on the tube, but doesn't mean dire things. I
17:17
don't know, And so I'm start gagging choking. Finally get be able to
17:19
drink some water, but it's still is the worst taste in the world.
17:23
How are you feeling now? How's the throat feeling? Out. It feels
17:26
like my throat's on fire. It feels like I swallowed a razor blade.
17:30
But hey, my breath has never smelled better tell you what, It's gonna
17:33
last a lot longer now because it's down in the throat. You're just gonna
17:36
be burping up that beautiful freshness all day. Absolutely a matter of fact,
17:38
me, you should do it every day. It's kind of like the equivalent
17:41
of you you ever gargle listerine, I have any kind of let try to
17:45
let it seep down. You're still a little, just a little. It
17:48
lasts a little bit longer, like it a minute in the morning. Come
17:52
on, get up on Big seven trending. Now, here's what you need
17:57
to know. Good morning, Pike and Amanda in the morning. Amanda's off
18:00
today, so in for her. It's James, Thank you, Pike,
18:06
Angar you welcome. NDSU blocked an extra point in overtime to defeat Montana State
18:11
on Saturday, advancing to the quarter finals of the FCS football playoffs. I
18:15
mean, there are just it's they're saying it's going down as one of the
18:18
great plays in NDSU buys in football history. James, did you see the
18:23
play? I didn't. Oh so yeah. In overtime, basically they scored
18:26
a touchdown and they need the extra point, which is generally a gimme to
18:30
you know, send it to double over time, and it just drills one
18:34
of the Bison players in the arm. In fact, after the game I
18:37
saw photo he had a well football wel n on his arm. So very
18:41
excited the shape of laces on his arm. That's pretty cool. Yeah,
18:44
yeah, yeah, I'd get that tattooed on before we goes away. Of
18:47
course, not a bad idea at all. So they play next Saturday,
18:51
South Dakota Coyotes one Saturday, the rivalry of all rivalries, Pike. So
18:56
that now it's a Coyotes or Coyotes. I never know what. I think
19:00
it's probably both. What do people normally say? I say coyotes. Yeah,
19:04
I hear that too, But then it's like wiley coyote. Yeah,
19:08
you know, what's the only other point I'm I'm abandoning all of my previous
19:14
belief systems and I'm following you bike Or was it only that because of his
19:18
wiliness? It's hard to say. Well, if South Dakota is wily enough,
19:22
maybe someday they'll be called coyotes, but for now they're just coyotes.
19:26
Yeah, it's just sad, sad. A West Fargo family is seeking the
19:30
public to help in finding their service dog that is missing. Oh you saw
19:34
the post. Cutest dog, adorable, horrible dog. The dog's name is
19:37
Ruby. What a great name, not a bad name at all. Now
19:41
it would be equally sad if the dog wasn't so darned cute without as cute
19:45
of a name. To be clear, that's right, Pike. She's from
19:48
the Osgood area and she only has her red service dog callar On. The
19:55
family was told that she was seen around the Horse area earlier Sunday evening.
19:59
And if you have any from you can check out the owner's post on our
20:00
Big nightty at seven facebook page tough one. You know you hate that.
20:03
It's a dog owner, especially service dogs, and I hope they find I
20:07
know a lot of people are sharing it, and I hope they find Ruby
20:10
soon. Let's find Ruby in her home. One man who's been arrested after
20:15
crashing his vehicle into the Island Park pool in downtown Fargo. Come on,
20:22
thinks an under construction. This is not gonna help that there was no water
20:27
in there, right, No, no, no, that's I don't know
20:30
when is that supposed to open? It's a big project. Was it next
20:33
year? I thought it was probably, I would think next year. The
20:34
single car accident happened at approximately two o four am on Sunday. Yeah,
20:38
that's when it'll happen. A vehicle went through a fence surrounding the construction area
20:42
of a pool, rolled into an unoccupied pool, unoccupied by water or humans.
20:49
No good, nobody was swimming, thank god. You know, with
20:55
these and they didn't say in the article. Obviously two four am Sunday.
20:57
You assume you can't out like a medical situation, you don't know, but
21:02
you could. But if the medical situation is some sort of induced by alcohol,
21:07
nay, there's that too. Yeah, I mean if I was a
21:08
betting Man pike, you know what I'm saying. The driver's name was Matthew
21:11
Thomas, a forty two year old Fargo resident. Sounds like he's okay too,
21:15
So that's good, All right? Good. I hope you didn't delay
21:18
the pool construction. Oh man, that would stink. What if they got
21:21
to fix the hole? They like collapse the I mean, there's already a
21:23
hole because it's a hole for water to fill into, right, but that
21:26
would really be you know, that he collapsed like one of the sidewalls or
21:30
something like Thathing, Yeah, could be a nightmare, terrible Amanda in the
21:33
morning on Big seven. You know the Santa Claus hotline. It's your direct
21:40
line to mister Clause. If your kids have, you know, something they
21:42
want to tell the jolly old fella. Maybe they want to tell him what
21:45
they want for Christmas. You can call the Santa hot line at seven oh
21:48
one four nine nine six nine zero three. It's really cool, James,
21:52
because we actually got Santa himself to leave the voicemail and this is him,
22:00
right, I mean, of course this is Santa Claus and you have reached
22:06
my personal hotline. When you hear the tone, please leave me your Christmas
22:11
gift wishes and holiday chair, and you leave your voicemail, you tell Santa
22:17
what you want. So it's super cute. Kids can call all weekend.
22:18
We have the voicemail blowing up and you know, always some interesting things like
22:22
what they want. But also this youngster wanted to just tell Santa a little
22:26
story. Chanta, my elf is really shilly. He likes to climb on
22:33
trees, I believe talking probably about the elf on the shelf. This is
22:37
the elf and the tree pip off of the tree. You just never know
22:40
where that ELF's going to be. How does he get up there? It
22:41
gets even sillier. Hang on. One time I had to put him in
22:45
cinnamon, and then he bore all the lights of my Christmas tree and the
22:48
little decor trees. It's really it's really shilly. Bah let me see them.
22:56
A little bush mom chiming in at the end there that there might be
23:02
a rashulf. I'm not sure, but I hope everything's fine. A little
23:06
regard little chafing because of all the tree bark pike. Probably probably you know,
23:10
the elf on the shelf, he's got to keep the legs covered nothing.
23:11
A little cinnamon canceled. Yeah right, that was super cute feeling qualities
23:17
of cinnamon. And then this sounds to be like a family, you know,
23:19
collectively telling Santa Claus what they would like. Hot wheel, big popular
23:26
one. Still to this day you say hot wheel bed one of the monster
23:30
beds. Hot wheel big monster truck. I want master truck, big huge,
23:38
so another big huge, mind, the bigger the better. It sounds
23:41
I don't think with the monster truck. I don't think you could get a
23:44
bigger or too big of a monster truck. I should say no, I
23:48
haven't seen one yet. Nope, not at any point if I said,
23:51
well, that's just too big. Sorry, he wants Santa suit. So
23:57
if he sounds like there's like a fan. We have four first three all
24:00
in on big monster trucks, and this one I believe was a can of
24:04
soup. Soup. They we're gonna be good. We're gonna be game aany
24:11
Klaus, they were gonna be good, adorable, candy clouds, many klowds.
24:19
I good. The Santa Claus houtline is open at seven O one four
24:22
nine nine six nine zero three. Have your kiddos give it a call.
24:26
They'll love it and then you might even get to hear them on the radio
24:29
the next day. How exciting that was? Adorable? My heart is warmed.
24:32
Aren't you just feeling like bumped? In? Nice season? Staying with
24:38
me and Doc like it a minute in the morning on Big Nuddy eight point
24:45
seven. All through the holidays and all the year. Really we do something
24:49
called the Big Christmas Witch. We're we're able to give back to families going
24:52
through hard times locally. And so right now we have Megan on the phone,
24:57
who her husband is going through very very difficult medical situations, and so,
25:03
Megan, can you just get us up to date on what is going
25:06
on with your husband Eric. When he was sixteen years old, he was
25:10
diagnosed with a brain tumor and at that point it was a greade too.
25:12
He had a brain surgery when he was sixteen, again at twenty one,
25:18
and then he had a long break. We met, got married, had
25:22
kids, and then right after my son was born, he had another seizure
25:27
and we got the news that the tumor was growing again. He had his
25:30
third brain surgery down at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, followed by radiation. Our
25:37
family relocated to Rochester for six weeks. Now, Megan, you say your
25:40
family, You guys have kids as well? Right yes, yep, right
25:42
now? My kids are almost nine and five and a half. Okay,
25:47
so there's still little and you're going through all this and if you don't mind
25:49
me asking how old is your husband, he's thirty seven. Where are you
25:53
guys at now with all of this? He was on a clinical trial in
25:56
Houston Texas where he was flying down there every month and that was working until
26:00
it didn't. That's when he had a pretty large brain hemorrhage. He was
26:04
non responsive for a couple of days, and then they decided to do fourth
26:08
brain surgery just to control the hemorrhage. That was not necessarily to remove the
26:14
tumor because it was growing into parts of his brain that were too delicate to
26:18
work on. Oh, Megan, this is just heartbreaking. We wanted to
26:22
help out in any way we can, and with our big ninety eight point
26:25
seven Christmas wish, what we're able to do is for you and your family
26:27
to donate one thousand dollars for you guys to be able to use that for
26:32
I'm sure what are just a mountain of medical costs, or maybe it's just
26:37
for the holidays, just to you know, get the kids something special,
26:38
get your husband something to lift his spirits. Anything we can do. But
26:41
that's for you guys. Okay, that's amazing. Thank you so much.
26:45
You are gotten so much support from the community, and this community is truly
26:49
amazing, and I'm sure there's a lot of people listening right now that are
26:52
a part of the community like you had mentioned and they want to give back
26:55
this holiday season. So if they go to Big ninety eight point seven's Facebook
26:57
page right now, you can hear this story and there is a donate button.
27:02
One hundred percent of the proceeds that they donate to on that are going
27:04
to go directly to you and your family. So we'll start it with a
27:07
thousand dollars and hopefully people can you give in any way they can and make
27:11
things just a little brighter for you guys this holiday. And you have a
27:15
really good friend, your friend Stephanie Gabbery, who we actually gave a Christmas
27:18
last year. I was gonna say, oh, that's really sweet of her,
27:22
too, y, she definitely the exact same thing. Just know that
27:26
you're in our thoughts and prayers and give those kiddos just a little extra love
27:32
this holiday season. Thank you,
