0:00
But here we are. Are you ready to enter us the judgment? So
0:04
I just want to give a little judge. Somebody has found themselves in a
0:07
situation and they need your advice. So seven O one two eight h one
0:11
ninety eight seven. His name is Ross. Good morning, Ross. Hey,
0:15
are you doing great? Great? Awesome? Really good to talk to
0:17
you. Thank you for doing this with us. Now tell us what's going
0:19
on with your son. It's a little difficult my son. My son is
0:24
in hockey, but he's he's struggling with it. He's not a he's not
0:28
as gifted as some of the other players. And how old is your son?
0:33
He's sixteen, but he wants to continue to keep playing. But you
0:37
know it's expensive. Not every sports the same, and this one, this
0:40
one costs some money, a lot of money, to be fair. Yeah,
0:43
you know, I think I think I wanted to be done, you
0:45
know, I want I want to give him the freedom to choose different things.
0:48
But this, this one's not going well. He needs to find something
0:51
else. You know, my wife thinks something too harsh. Do you think
0:56
he's just doing it just to kind of do it or do you do you
0:58
really feel like he's super powder? And he enjoys it, whether he's one
1:02
of the best kids or not. I think he's passionate. I definitely think
1:04
he's passionate. But it doesn't but be a passion doesn't pay the bills.
1:07
Has he ever thought of golf? Ross, because you know, I have
1:11
a lot of regrets of growing up not doing more golf. Guys that could
1:14
be even more expensive. Well, I mean, I mean, if that's
1:17
the thing, I mean, do you just not want him involved in anything?
1:21
I just want him born to make a decision where he can continue to
1:25
learn. But he's making some progress with this, I just don't think.
1:27
I just don't see the progress happening, and I just don't see any return
1:32
from it. Ross. Here's what we're going to do. Somebody's been through
1:34
this before. They're going to have some insight for you. So we're going
1:37
to take some calls. People gonna get a little judge being that it is
1:40
the judgment zone. So just listen in and hopefully you can get a resolution
1:44
here that's good for you, your wife and your son. Great Well seven
1:49
oh one two eight ozho one ninety eight seven. Ross's son just not quite
1:53
you know, getting it feel like it's more of a financial thing. Because
1:57
financial then it's like, yeah, I get it, that's it's expensive and
2:01
that's the deal breaker then, But you've got it to this point, how
2:05
have you financially been able to do that? And if he is the thing
2:07
is, if your kid is passionate about it and is what he loves to
2:09
do, even if he's not the best, you just gotta let him keep
2:13
going. I would totally get it if the kid seemed to just be doing
2:15
it, just going through the motions, not putting any extra work in right,
2:19
So why am I paying for this if you really aren't even enjoying it?
2:22
But that's going to be the key thing, whether the kid is truly
2:24
you know, out there for the fun of it. We all know kids
2:27
growing up who they knew they were never going to be a starter. They
2:30
just love going. It's all part of the experience. Heck, I wrote
2:34
that I rode that bench better than anybody in football that said hindsight, like,
2:38
if you knew how the rest of your high school career was going to
2:40
go and you weren't gonna ever become anything, yeah, I probably would have
2:44
quit. You know, would you really? Oh? One hundred percent?
2:46
It just was, it wouldn't have been worth it, you know, like
2:47
I'd rather focus on something else that was actually okay. At So I think
2:51
for this kid it might be a blessing that his dad is a total cheap
2:53
skate. But oh see, I disagree tight h one ninety eight seven.
3:00
What should he do? Good morning? Honestly you will regret not letting him
3:04
play like kids quote so fast? And is it something he actually likes to
3:07
do? Let him? Just dad sounds like a selfish jerk. Do you
3:10
get the vibe that the dad is primarily, you know, financially motivated,
3:15
like he's just trying to save a couple bucks. That's but also he's also
3:19
result oriented. But it's like sometimes let's just do it for the system of
3:22
doing it, because it's fun and we enjoy it. I also think you're
3:23
learning really good social skills when you're on a team sport. Some less very
3:29
grow I don't know, hockey kids are kind of weirdos, don't you.
3:32
Well, thank you for the call, man, appreciate it. Thanks.
3:35
Are we getting any text over on this seven one two eight h one ninety
3:38
eight seven phone we are? It sounds like air quotes Ross cares more about
3:43
money than his child. And also we got a lot of people chime in
3:46
it on Facebook, and I will tell you about ninety percent of them are
3:50
saying let him play. Regina Sheila, Melissa Barb saying, wow, passion
3:55
doesn't pay the bills. Neither does high school hockey. Dad, that's to
3:59
get his priority. That was a weird line. One more call. What's
4:02
your name? Oh, let's go with John. Let's go at John.
4:06
John. What do you think about the situation, the fact that a dad
4:11
has to call in an outsources parenting to the radio show. This kid is
4:15
done for whatever decision he chooses. I think people just want to validate their
4:21
reasoning, you know. So he's just hoping that he's going to hear somebody
4:25
calling to be like, yeah, he's totally right. That kid ain't any
4:28
good. Get him out of there. But so far anyway not going his
4:32
way. But I'm assuming you're a parent, Yeah, how would you handle
4:35
this situation if your kid wasn't excelling at something it was a financial burden,
4:42
but they were passionate about it. Well, it's not about the financial burden.
4:46
You're a parent, it's your job. You pay for it. If
4:48
your kid likes it and he's learning something not about excelling. If he is
4:53
learning a life lesson from it, you let him do it, right,
4:56
I mean, unless you're literally not able to put food on the table because
5:00
of the hockey fees, that's a different discussion, exactly exactly. All right,
5:03
Well, hate John, John, Thank you so much for going,
5:06
John. Oh John, Yeah, all right, you're welcome, John,
5:12
Old John. So all right, one more call, good morning. Who's
5:15
this? This is Genie hy Jeanie. What do you think? Oh?
5:16
I think that first half, we've got to give hats off to the sun
5:20
for knowing that he's probably not good as the rest of the kids, but
5:24
wants to continue to play. I think totally. I think that shows a
5:28
lot about his character. Second thing is I think this is more about the
5:31
dad than the son, who can't be the proud papa in the stands.
5:38
Yeah, I think dad might be trying to, you know, relive his
5:41
glory days and it's not quite working out like you had imagined when he was,
5:44
you know, finding out he was having a boy. My son's going
5:46
to be the best hockey player, you know, right, And hockey is
5:49
extensive, so is every other sport. Or you know, for the for
5:53
the most part, but if it's something that his son wants to do,
5:58
I think sixteen is pretty late to start changing sports, right, right exactly,
6:02
unless, like I said, you want to get a headstart on golf,
6:04
because as a thirty three year old, that's about all I'm doing physically,
6:09
so pickleballs an option these days. Right. Oh, we appreciate you.
6:13
Thanks so much for chiming in. You bet I have a great day.
6:15
Well, this one seems pretty cut and dry, yo, I don't
6:18
think we really need to enter a judgment. I don't feel bad because I
6:23
agree. I don't think the dad wanted to hear all of this, but
6:25
hopefully he takes this advice and a good block. Enjoy the junior varsity games.
6:30
They're fun too, right verdict? Let the kid play Amanda in the
6:35
morning. Now, Amanda stills the seat. Wet's see, Well, you
6:40
dropped this yesterday. I had missed this. I fell asleep by the time
6:43
we got to Best Picture for the Oscars and al Pacino got on stage.
6:47
And every time you watch an award show for the grand finale, it's usually
6:51
like a pretty big deal, but not when Pacino's up there. No,
6:56
ten wonderful films. Oh, well, nominated, but only one will take
7:02
the award for Best Picture. And I have to go to the envelope for
7:09
that boy, and I will, okay, please get out of their alms,
7:15
hang on, come on, and Maria, I see Oppenheimer. Oh
7:21
yes, okay, yes, I have ADMA. So we all went.
7:28
What happened? I guess it was not a mistake. The producers actually wanted
7:32
it to go that way. They told him to admit the names of those
7:35
that were nominated. They felt that the individual film presentations throughout the night were
7:40
enough. But I still feel like you could have amped it up a bit.
7:43
Well, at the rate he was going, if you were to have
7:45
to announce ten movies, he'd still be going. So I think they had
7:49
it about right my eyes. The Openheimer, they're ten separate envelopes and hang
7:58
on now. And speaking of the Oscars, how about this little surprise Taylor
8:03
Swift and Travis Kelsey. There were some rumors they were going to show up
8:05
at the Oscars, but when it ended up happening as they flew back from
8:09
Singapore into la and they just went to an after party totally on the DL.
8:13
I guess Madonna throws a party every single year at a producer's house.
8:18
His name is Guy, not Guy Fieri, but a different guy, Guy,
8:20
and the guy he's a guy who knows a guy. But it's a
8:26
Gucci sponsored event, so I guess it's a strict no camera policy, so
8:30
nobody really got any pictures of them or anything, which I love this for
8:33
them, do you I do? He said that I loved this so much
8:41
for that for them. On the other hand, Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham
8:45
Junior, they were spotted out and about in front of well all the cameras
8:48
a couple of different times, so they're definitely a thing. It definitely seems
8:52
like nobody cares either, which is great. You know, how do you
8:56
bring that up? I've just so over the Kardashians. Do you know what
9:01
I almost did yesterday because of the whole Balenciaga. Do you know the whole
9:03
Balenciaga? No, you've read of it? Okay, just in general,
9:09
I'm just over it. Like I almost unfollowed Kim Kardashian yesterday. I know
9:13
bold I haven't unfollowed Britney Spears yet, but I'm unfollowing Kim Kardashian. I
9:18
just I'm over it. Haven't watched the Kardashians in over a year. I'm
9:22
like a new person. Good for you. What are you shifting or focus
9:26
to my children? Life books, poetry? Now I'm just lying. I
9:33
don't believe any of it now, all right, speaking to the Kardashians.
9:37
The youngest Northwest, who is trying to like if she's not the youngest Kardashian,
9:41
but she is the youngest. It's trying to get something here because she's
9:43
now do we know for sure she's the youngest who's trying to get something here?
9:50
No, I'm pretty sure. Can we get our checkers on that.
9:52
I think Kylie might have the youngest, like a baby brand or something.
10:00
But Northwest made this announcement yesterday, and I want to album elementary school job.
10:11
She's ten. She is gonna be releasing an album. I'm just not
10:16
here for it. I'm not No, I'm not going to listen to a
10:18
ten year old's rap album. Sorry, I just all of it. It
10:22
just is icky to me. I feel like Kim and Kanye are using their
10:26
kid as a ploy getting after each other. I mean, the fact she
10:30
is doing elementary school dropout. While he's trying to get her to get out
10:33
of school. It's like he wants her to drop out. I feel like
10:35
the only reason she's doing it is because of the name, you know what
10:39
I mean, Like because he had college dropout. Like they're like, oh
10:41
no, the funny, Oh you don't think she's actually trying to drop out
10:43
of school. And I think the idea came first, and then they're like,
10:46
well, I guess you gotta make a rap album. Then I don't
10:48
know. It's like when somebody finds a really good name for a baby and
10:52
they weren't going to have a baby, but then they do only because they
10:54
want to name it that name. It's like that, do you know people
10:58
who have done that? Oh yeah, we're thinking about doing it. And
11:01
Amanda in the morning on SIG seven, Well, well, well it's about
11:09
time all you desirable men out there revealed your secret. What makes you so
11:15
desirable? Now, obviously it's not a secret that you've got to be like
11:20
physically attractive, right, that's kind of number work, right, Yeah.
11:22
Usually, I mean I don't know the ladies. I feel like we go
11:26
for personality and humor. Well, these things are the secrets that make a
11:28
man even more desirable, such as Amanda. They have what they call mystery
11:35
wrapped in confidence. It's like a book you can't put down with enough confidence
11:41
to make you want to read every page. Wow, yes, mystery wrapped
11:46
in confidence. You gotta have a little mystery, you know. Sometimes less
11:48
is more when you're just meeting somebody, like you know, keep it a
11:52
little vague. Don't tell them what you do for work or where, or
11:56
how old you are. Some may go red flag alert kind of super like
12:00
a little you think there's something sexy about Like, I don't really know much
12:03
about this guy at all. No, I think in twenty twenty four,
12:07
I want your full resume, your social Security number, background check or anything.
12:13
But yeah, okay, Now the secret of very desirable men they have
12:18
emotional intelligence, not just muscle. Oh totally. Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes
12:24
you get a dumb dumb emotionally and it's like, yeah, exactly. They
12:31
have passion beyond the romantic. Of course, some romantic passion is always welcome.
12:35
What would be what am I missing? What else would be passion?
12:39
Life goals? Oh dive, I know they're really into right over my head
12:45
pickleball or yeah, passionate about something. Yeah, what is Nick's greatest passion
12:52
other than you and the kid? Come on, No, he is.
12:56
He's very passionate about sports. He's very passed. Has any woman ever been
13:01
attracted by that? Because I feel like, and I love sports, I
13:05
wish it was you know what I mean, But like, i feel like
13:05
most guys really like sports, and I've never heard a woman go like,
13:09
oh, I was with a football guy man who wasn't into sports, and
13:15
it was very weird to me that I was the one that was more into
13:18
it, you know what I mean, and that it threw me off.
13:20
I mean, they grew to kind of like it, that kind of thing,
13:22
but I'm like, are you just liking this team or this because of
13:26
me? And then it feels a little weird, feels phony, yes,
13:30
but okay. For instance, like Lauren, she was not a fan of
13:33
the Packers until she met you. My wife was a Vikings fan. Of
13:37
course, I'm a Bison fan because I'm from here. I'm always rooting for
13:39
them, but I've become an Iowa State fan because we watched them all the
13:45
time. So you're rooting for them, you know, But that's your type.
13:48
Some women probably hate it. They hate the idea of a big,
13:50
dumb sports guy. They want somebody who reads I don't know, Russian literature.
13:56
Well, that would be kind of an interesting situation Russian literature that,
14:05
but also just like more of an intellectual man, like I have a friend
14:07
who's you know, her husband reads a lot does all Like, I've never
14:13
been with a guy that's doing that. What would you do if you came
14:16
home and Nick was just nose deep in a book, I'd be like,
14:20
what you read? Yeah? What are you reading? Man? The other
14:22
night, Laurena and I and we don't do this a lot, so it's
14:24
noteworthy. We just turned the TV off and we each grabbed a book and
14:28
I put on a little book reading playlist, some nice piano, and we
14:33
just read. Nick and I have been talking about this, so he brought
14:37
home a book the other day and I started kind of reading it at night,
14:41
and I've only gotten through like four or five pages, just because the
14:43
kids were usually reading their stories. But it was one of those moments I'm
14:46
like, we what don't we read? And he made a comment to me,
14:48
goes, ever since I met you, I really stopped reading. I'm
14:50
like, I don't know what that says about me, Like you can still
14:54
read. I mean, I think, why read a book when you can
15:00
horse round? Because that's what's going on. You're right, You're right,
15:03
all right. Another secret trade of desirable man. They have humor, which
15:09
has been known to be called the universal aphrodisiac. Yeah, I humor is
15:13
my favorite. Oh yeah it is. I mean you have to laugh your
15:18
way through relationships, friendships, all of that. So you got two good
15:22
looking guys, one very funny, the other in a fantasy football league?
15:28
Which one? Are you taking? A funny guy? Yeah? But the
15:31
fantasy thing that's sexy too, right, fantasy football league? Yeah? No.
15:35
See, now that's where it's like when you're that sports guy. I'm
15:39
tapping out. What if he's the commissioner of the league. Is that do
15:41
anything for you? How many leagues? Well? Just one? He really
15:46
needs to focus on, just the one. No, I'm gonna go humor.
15:50
Really yeah, I'm sorry, Well, what's your what's your league name?
15:54
That might share that you're kind of funny too. I can't say that
15:56
here. Then you're funny like a minute in the morning on Big Honey eight
16:03
point seven. You know, it's great make an extra money. Who doesn't
16:10
want to make a few extra bucks? Look at you with the side hustles.
16:11
I feel like you bring this up and it makes me go, gosh,
16:14
how many times do I tell you I need to find a side hustle?
16:18
Well, you could do any of these, and these are weird side
16:21
hustles. We put a list together of the weirdest ways you can make extra
16:25
money, all right, actually okay, and a lot of them are pooh
16:26
related. Just a warning, trigger warning if you're triggered by Pooh Pooh,
16:32
for example, maybe I might already be tapped out on this, but listen,
16:36
hear me out. You know you can sell your pooh, and I'm
16:38
not kidding. Here's what you do. There are studies, There are researchers
16:42
out there, similar to how like I'll donate plasma every once in a while.
16:45
Yeah, it'd be the same thing, except replace plasma with pooh.
16:49
You got it? Okay, So so I'm collecting it and yeah, you
16:53
send it in. But basically, there are some restrictions. They're going to
16:56
be looking for people like in a very certain age range, and depending on
17:00
what study they're doing, you might have to have a certain condition like be
17:03
diabetic or something like that. Okay, so don't have that probably, well
17:07
you don't know. I'm just saying it's possible. Yeah, but imagine if
17:11
you do happen to have what they're looking for. They say it can pay
17:14
up to fifteen hundred bucks a month. Yeah, I would have no issue
17:17
doing that. Would it be gross? Yeah? But for fifteen hundred bucks
17:19
take it another little weird side hustle. You could be a line standard.
17:25
Apparently there are rich people out there paying people to wait in line, depending
17:29
on like, let's say the new Yeezies are coming out. I don't have
17:33
patience. I don't think I have enough patience for something like that, especially
17:36
if it was what I mean, what's it going? Right? Well,
17:38
I mean it just depends name your price. It's rich people, so you
17:41
know, yeah, okay, okay, that one's not for you. No,
17:45
what about this one selling your underwear? Apparently there is a market for
17:49
used unwashed underwear. Now it doesn't say what the purchaser is doing with it,
17:56
but that's something you're just gonna probably want to not think about. But
18:00
there's a legitimate online market for unwashed underwear. And that's the rate of roughly
18:08
They don't say a price, but it's something I guess it's probably you name.
18:11
You're going to throw them away anyway? Yeah, exactly. Now if
18:15
you're actually curious, the site has called all things worn all right, maybe
18:19
my socks. It'd be fun. Somebody's got to be into some nasty socks.
18:26
Socks? Are you kidding me? Honestly, been on my feet all
18:30
day long? Who wants some? Maybe if I leave a voice message like
18:33
that, they'll be real excited. There you go. You're like a step
18:37
away from only fans based on what you just describe it. That and then
18:41
the number one weird side hustle wait for you to make some money. And
18:45
honestly, I had this thought yesterday. I think you could legitimately make money,
18:48
especially right now being a pooper scooper. Oh, there's ah is it.
18:53
There's a bunch of boys around our neighborhood. It's the dog Pooh crew.
18:57
Really, I think it's what they're idea. Yes, I actually just
19:02
saw it on a group that I am in in our neighborhood and they go
19:06
around. Some of them put like things on the door or whatever. But
19:07
yeah, they're they're pooper scoop brilliant idea, boys, Because yeah, we're
19:11
walking around yesterday, as I imagine a lot of people were enjoying the weather.
19:14
It took a long walk through some neighborhoods and people's yards as the snow
19:18
has melted, Not that there was really any ever anyway, but you're seeing
19:21
the pool a lot of Oh my god, some of these yards. It's
19:23
like fifty percent pooh. We did a little pooper scooper pick up about a
19:27
month ago, and we were gonna do it yesterday but we didn't get around
19:30
to it. But yeah, it's amazing how quick it goes. How much
19:33
would you charge? How much would you pay for somebody to take care of
19:36
that completely? Like what thirty bucks? Is that crazy? Because it wouldn't
19:38
take very much. I want to say, I want to say that's what
19:41
they are charging. It's like thirty bucks. I don't know if it's like
19:45
for twenty minutes to do it or if it is hang on, I'm also
19:48
based on time smart that or it's the Uh, they're really just dilly the
19:52
dog Pooh crew got poop we scoop So it's so good. I was thinking
19:59
to be like pikes poop Ooh, look they've got a bunch of different special
20:03
packages. Are saying that either right, Oh did they pay for an advertisement?
20:07
No they did not. I'm just telling you that there's sounds like you
20:10
might be endorsing the poop crew. No, no, do you know who
20:12
my poop crew is? Sydney and Briggs trending. Now here's what you need
20:18
to know. Well, this is very exciting news. For the first time
20:22
in history NDSU women's basketball, they have moved on to the championship for the
20:29
Summit League. Isn't this fantastic? They beat Oral Roberts yesterday, so today
20:33
they play at three point thirty against rivals South Dakota State. They're down in
20:38
Sioux Falls, but just very exciting. That's great. Took down Oral Roberts.
20:41
Now is that a name of a guy? Uh, you know,
20:45
I'm not sure. Maybe give that a peek. I don't know. Here,
20:48
let me just google Oral and see what comes up. There, you
20:51
go, see what it's all about. I'm really excited for him though,
20:56
I really know. That's great and they win this one. They're automatically in
21:00
the Big Dance, the NCAA Tournament. I love it. Yesterday blowing up
21:03
social media, it is coming back Happy Joe's. I'm like, I thought
21:08
that was dead in the water. I would have never thought that this was
21:11
a franchise that was gonna be revived. You know, we always talk about
21:15
places that would be reopening or doing but somebody else decided it was worth their
21:19
money to open a new friend. I didn't realize it was a franchise.
21:22
I thought it was a local mom and pop shop. I thought Joe lived
21:25
in Edgewood, you know, now that you say that, I kind of
21:27
thought that, But I I just assumed somebody was gonna revive it with like
21:32
those recipes and doing whatever. We still have no other details like when they're
21:36
gonna do it or where it's gonna go. It better be, like I
21:38
said, Happy Joe's, just from the nostalgia. It can't be. Don't
21:41
make it some new fancy building. I don't want it to have that new
21:45
building smell, like in West Fargo or something. Make it in North Fargo
21:49
or somewhere, you know, some somewhere sort of it's we'll call it established.
21:52
She and I'm like the opposite. I'm like, come out to like
21:55
Horace or something like that. You know, it'd be nice. We like
21:59
things way out there. He Isn't there two restaurants in Horace? There is,
22:03
and there's like two hundred new homes, so we gotta we gotta keep
22:06
building. You get chill out there, Okay, okay, Dad, the
22:11
Horace. I remember, you're just upset because yesterday, oh my gosh,
22:15
where there's some big moves in the NFL. First of all, of course,
22:18
Viking fans, Kirk Cousins, he's out of here. He signed with
22:21
the Falcons, four year deal contract, forty five million dollars a year.
22:27
Be nice, Cousins. You gotta put food on the table, Yes,
22:32
very much so. And now in coming in will be Sam Darnold, the
22:34
Vikings signed. And that's a terrible quarterback that will not get you anywhere.
22:38
But hey, you'll probably draft one. I did just see though that.
22:41
Not to get too much into the chok talk. No, this is Aaron
22:45
Jones, Packers running back. Formerly they released him yesterday. I'm a big
22:48
Packer fan. Aaron Jones not only a great player, but one of the
22:52
best humans. A lot of people really sad to see him going. I
22:55
just saw that. Of all the other thirty one teams, guess who is
22:59
ap to sign Aaron Jones Today, the Minnesota Vices, let's win this for
23:04
you. I believe they call those sloppy seconds. I don't know. I
23:11
mean, it seems like the Vikings know what they're doing. With all their
23:15
storied success over the years, it does seem like they know what they're doing.
23:18
All right, Sunshine, Today, I have about sixty which is going
23:22
to be beautiful. Pike, get a Manda in the morning, come on,
23:25
get up on dig. Sorry if I sound a little rough, I
23:29
am a little sick. Well, this guy, though, he woke up
23:32
with a little tickle in his throat, as you do many days. I
23:34
must be sick or I was at a concert or something of the sort,
23:37
so his his voice is very horse all right, Okay, this guys start
23:41
talking a horse. He's like, well, I just must be sick.
23:44
Well, days go by, nothing's getting better, so he thought, well,
23:45
I better go check this thing out. So he's examining his throat.
23:48
You ever do your own throat examination? Uh? The closest I get is
23:52
like gargling with saltwater and doing like, uh, like that kind of thing
23:56
soun exam. Yeah, but I say, like, grab the flashlight on
23:59
your phone and look get your little gobbler back there. No, well I
24:02
don't actually, oh, you don't have to pay for the doctor. Sorry,
24:07
I'm not looking at my gobblin. Just look at your own gob got
24:10
it? Got it? Well, this man went into the doctor and what
24:12
they found, Amanda, was that he was not sick. He had a
24:17
six centimeter long leech sucking blood from his sight. Leech. Yeah, wow,
24:23
big long leech in his throat. Imagine just running the length of his
24:29
throat from Oh gosh, that is sucker sucker at the top, which is
24:33
he could see just the slightest little brown something in the back of his throat.
24:37
Oh that's so gross. Oh you had a weird little voice that you
24:42
are? You sure man that you don't have something to get your throat and
24:45
pots of it in the morning. Sometimes you just gotta tip your cap like
24:52
if I had a cap on right now, You got a cap on,
24:52
We both do. Hey, let's tip through the headphones, all right.
24:57
So students at a school at and caught cheating. I don't like it.
25:02
I'm not tipping my hat to cheating. Pike, not doing it really,
25:04
because I don't know what it is. I feel like you were the one
25:07
in school that was okay. So remember I had test anxiety. Oh that's
25:10
right. So I'd go into school early to take the test because I was
25:15
the girl. Whenever people were taking tests and you were the opposite, you'd
25:18
be the first one done with the test, and I'd be the girl like,
25:21
oh my gosh, I'm still only on number three, and I would
25:23
just like read for some reason, I would read the question wouldn't process.
25:27
I'd be so worried about everybody around me that I would just start filling in
25:32
bubbles like in the movie. You know what helps with that studying? I
25:36
mean yes, but still it just it was a thing, all right.
25:40
Well, these kids, Amanda, they were in the actual classroom taking their
25:42
test, big test, big big test apparently, And so of course there's
25:45
no phones, there's no device, there's no way of cheating possible. Are
25:48
you sure, because I do remember writing it on my you like write a
25:53
couple of little things, So there was a couple of times, you know,
25:56
you might write a little raskot or two. Well, these kids apparently
26:00
hired friends and family to somehow get the correct answers, and then they had
26:07
to because this classroom is on like the second or third story. They scaled
26:11
the building and so they got up to the window of the classroom and snuck
26:14
in the correct answers that were then dispersed to the students. Now, obviously
26:18
this is the outside. From the outside, you might be wondering, Hey,
26:21
why is there a bunch of people standing on top of each other galing
26:23
the side of our school. That seems suspicious. So they've been busted that
26:27
that seems suspicious. But also what family and friends are going to do?
26:30
This? Good ones? This is supportive one. Now it is crazy.
26:34
We had this one classroom. One of my favorite classes I ever had was
26:37
eighth grade science legendary teacher over in Dilworth, Dean Calso not there anymore,
26:42
but he would in the classroom when we were taking a big test. He
26:45
would like leave almost like you were testing us. So he would walk out
26:49
the door, and we caught onto this. And so the second the door
26:52
latch shut, somebody would just from the top start going one C, two
26:59
B, you know, and just naming all the answers, and then he
27:02
would come back like nothing happened. He knew he knew or not, but
27:06
he never said anything. Yeah, you just wonder if some teachers kind of
27:08
Eh, you know this is going to be a tough one, and I'll
27:11
let you. I'll trust your kids. I guess easier to grade when everyone
27:15
has the same answers. I know what he's doing.
