  Speaker 3: thing and I got to asking the questions.

  Speaker 3: All right.
• 1:01
  Speaker 6: Here's the first one.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: What do you think of when you hear Fargo? Woodchipper
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: from the movie, which I've never seen.
• 1:09
  Speaker 6: Oh, okay.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: No, no worries.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: And then do you know what state Fargo is in?
• 1:14
  Speaker 7: North Dakota?
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Anything else come to mind? You hear Fargo. Someone says
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: they're from Fargo. What do you think? I think of
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: those hats that cover your ears, like square.
• 1:23
  Speaker 6: Oh, like the Snoopy?
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know why. Would you ever, do you
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: think you would ever go to Fargo just to visit?
• 1:32
  Speaker 8: No.
• 1:35
  Speaker 7: No. Sorry, I don't.
• 1:38
  Speaker 6: That actually wasn't bad, though.
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: Although every answer was with a question at the end.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: That was probably my favorite. And also, no, like, I'm
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: so sorry. No, girl, you don't need to be sorry
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: about it.
• 1:48
  Speaker 6: It's fine. Instead of North Dakota, it was North Dakota.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: All right. We have another one here for Angie's mission
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: on the street in Vegas.

• 2:31
  Speaker 7: Fair enough.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: He never sighed.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: So, like, the question mark always when they guess the state.
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: North Dakota?
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: They're not quite sure. Yeah.
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: There's a common theme, yeah.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: It's always the, it makes me sad that it's always
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: just the show, the movie.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: He knew nothing.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: Wasn't Chris Rock in that show?
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: I don't even know.

  Speaker 5: Carolina, maybe. And couldn't even pick a Carolina.
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: Didn't give us a North or a South.
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: One of the Carolinas.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: And what's funny, even though there was no question mark,
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: he was the most confident, maybe.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: I do love the honesty from that gentleman at the beginning.

  Speaker 6: I'll tell you at 641. Oh, okay, okay.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Well, so.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: planning my outfit. I've been getting better at trying to
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: figure out the night before what I'm going to wear.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: And so we'll get into, again, part of my outfit.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: But I have this purple t-shirt on because it is
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: Purple Pride Friday. That's right. And I got to wear
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: my Vikings somehow, someway every Friday. Like, that's been kind
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: of my thing.
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: However.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: Without thinking, I was like, oh, yeah, this T-shirt, I'm
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: going to wear it. And then this morning it dawned
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: on me the T-shirt I'm wearing is the Minneapolis Miracle play.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Beautiful.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: And we're playing the Saints this weekend. And that's the
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: team that the Minneapolis Miracle happened.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: It's cool.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: I was like, oh, my gosh, I couldn't have planned
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: that better if I tried. And I didn't.
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: But it happened.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: And I feel like that's the win of the day.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: And that is like manifesting. We are going to win
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: this weekend.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: Yes. That is an aura boost if I've ever seen it.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: I love that. Even I know about the miracle place.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: Like, thank you. Thank you. OK. And your little victory.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: You know what? I have been wanting to start. a
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: solo show to watch.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Like, you know, you have your shows you watch with
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: your family, your shows you watch with your partner. But
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: I needed one that's just for me. So yesterday I
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: started East of Eden. On Netflix, and it stars Florence Pugh. Oh,
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: that's all.
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: We need to know.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: No, I'm just kidding. The guy who, I never know
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: this guy's name, but I think he looks like he
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: could be Kit Harington's brother. Like if Kit Harington was
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Jon Snow in Game of Thrones, this guy would be
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: Jon Reign.
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: Like that actor, I don't.
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: Know his name, and then there's a few other people
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: in it.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: But it's already so good, and I'm only an episode
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: and a half in.
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: They're long episodes.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: But I'm really excited to watch East of Eden, and
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: that's like my– My own little show that I can
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: watch on my own time, and I don't have to
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: ask anybody else if they're, are you ready to watch
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: another episode?
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: Like, I can just do that myself.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: You can just burn through the episodes.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: Yes, I'm very excited. I think I'll binge it by
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: the end of this weekend.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: I was wondering about this show, so keep me clued in,
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: because I might have to.
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: Put it on my list. Already, I'm hooked.
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: You have to watch it.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'm in.
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: I love that.
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: What about you, Gabe? Thank you. What's your little victory today?
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: You know, my little victory is, for the first time in,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: it feels like about a month, I will be spending
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: this weekend at my very own house that I pay
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: rent to live in. I don't even know what my
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: house looks like on a Saturday.
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: You really have been doing so much traveling lately.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: Everywhere.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: I've had bachelor party, and I guess we didn't have
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: to bring Kaylee to Grandma and Grandpa's.
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: But we did. Yeah, you got to go at some point.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you do.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: And then to a wedding, I have driven across the
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: northern part of the state. the central part of the state,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: the southern part of the state. There should not be
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: a single mosquito left in all of Minnesota because they
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: are all on my front part of my car. OK,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: so I could not be more jacked to wake up tomorrow,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: roll over and do nothing for six seconds before I
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: got to go change a baby diaper.
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: I love this for you.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: That is so that's like the best feeling I get
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: to be home.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Home.
• 7:32
  Speaker 6: I get to be a home.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: I wonder if it like smells different on Saturdays. Actually,
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: I don't even have a clue on the way. We've
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: got Taylor Swift. We'll also have the big scroll coming
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: up on big 98.7. And if you are aware today
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: is flannel Friday, so get your flannels on and celebrate
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: and enjoy.
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: And we'll talk a little bit more.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: If you don't know the lore of flannel Fridays about
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: why they begin in October and why I have been
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: doing this for Quick math, like 18, 17 years or
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: something like that. Yeah, we'll have that later on in
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: the show. And today is the first Flannel Friday of.
• 8:12
  Speaker 6: The season. Yeah, the season.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: I was almost going to say the year, but that
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: wouldn't work because we were doing them in January, February, March.
• 8:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: This is the new season. This is the season premiere
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: of Flannel Friday.

  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: And it's the right fall is... All about the premieres.

  Speaker 2: And Megan, thank you so much for joining in today.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Round of applause to Megan.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: Get used to this flannel because if I don't find
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: another purple one, this is about all I'm going to
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: be wearing.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: And it's not like you've never worn a flannel on
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: a Friday in this building before you've done it.
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: But now you're like inauguration to the big 98.7 flannel Fridays.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: It's official.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: I'm happy to be here.
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: Thank you so much.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: And we've seen texts and messages asking about Flannel Friday,
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: which I find, A, very sweet and hilarious at the
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: same time.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Quite literally, our buddy Eddie, he listens to the show
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: from Chicago, but he messaged a couple.
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: Of weeks ago and said, hey, wait.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: When does Flannel Friday start again? And I was like, oh,
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: October 9th. We have a couple weeks.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: And they've always started in October. And the lore of
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Flannel Friday, if you've never heard this story, when I
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: was 17 in chemistry class, my professor, not professor, my teacher,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: his name was Mr. Crabtree. And to this day, I
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: still remember him. And once in a blue moon, we'll
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: message each other on Facebook. And he had a flannel
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: on in class on a Friday. And I did as well.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: And we joked around about doing it again next week.
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: And we did.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: And then we just continued to do it for the
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: rest of the school year. And this would have been
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: in October. And, you know, by December, January, February, my buddies,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: other kids in the school started hopping in on it.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: I brought it to the radio station when I was
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: in Winona, Minnesota. I brought it to the radio station
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: when I was in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. I've now brought
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: it to the FM area. So it's very funny to
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: think that regionally there are a gajillion people. Maybe not
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: a gajillion, but there are a ton of people.
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: You let you believe that. I'd like to hope a gajillion.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: There are a ton of people wearing flannels going, oh, yeah,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: there's flannel Fridays today.
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: Which is wonderful. I love this.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: What a true influencer you are, Gabe.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Now, I don't remember anything on the chemistry table from
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: that class.
• 10:27
  Speaker 7: Well, no.
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: The periodic table?
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: That's the one, yeah. K is potassium, right?
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: I was thinking desk.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I was like, the desk?
• 10:35
  Speaker 7: The book?
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: Like, I don't know. All I remember, K is potassium. Well,
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: you got that. At one point, I had them memorized.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: You don't know oxygen?
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: What's that, O, X?
• 10:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: O-X? Ox?
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Either way, I learned a lot in that chemistry class.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: I was really paying attention to what was going on
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: on the board. Or I was just figuring out what
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: flannel to wear to school on that Friday. A big
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: shout out to Mr.
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: Crabtree.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: He's one of the coolest dudes of all time. And
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: I'm so glad flannel Friday season is back.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: You know what we need? We need to take it
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: to the streets one of these Fridays and just see
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: who out is wearing a flannel and make Gabe go
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: up to them and be like, thanks for listening big
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: and wearing your flannel.
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I would do that.
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: And then we'll follow you.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: We'll take pictures.
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: I would do that.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: If you are driving your car right now and you
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: have a flannel on, do me a favor.
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: Just honk your horn on the count of three. OK, one, two, three.
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: Did you hear all that? Silence.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Crickets.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I feel like there are a ton of people who
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: have the first time I ever heard my voice on
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: the radio story. And we were doing stuff for bras
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: on Big 98.7. And there's this guy over at Corwin
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Toyota that I know, Jeremiah. And he was telling me
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: about the first time he heard his voice on the radio.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: And it is such a cool story that I actually
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: had him record it and send it to me.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: Awesome.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: He was in this Wiz Khalifa, like, laugh impersonation contest.
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: What?
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Okay. That alone is like, oh, wow. And supposedly he
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: had the best laugh. And here was the story.
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: I was fourth grade, about nine years old. My dad
• 12:25
  Speaker 7: picks me up from school. He's like, hey, son, we're
• 12:28
  Speaker 7: going to go to this Wiz Khalifa concert. And they
• 12:30
  Speaker 7: have a competition going on to win front row seats.
• 12:33
  Speaker 7: And I'm like, all right, like for sure. I'll go
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: to a concert. It's for Cinco de Mayo. I'm just
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: excited for this to happen. It's my first concert ever.
• 12:41
  Speaker 7: So he takes us to the Robo Bank Arena in Bakersfield, California.
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: And before we get out there, we spend about 15
• 12:48
  Speaker 7: minutes in the car. I'm warming up. I'm listening to
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: Wiz Khalifa music, trying to get his laugh down. And
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: we walk out there and long story short, I win
• 12:58
  Speaker 7: the competition and we get in there. We have a blast.
• 13:01
  Speaker 7: The competition was actually on the radio and I get
• 13:04
  Speaker 7: on there and it was a blast.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: And I never heard it actually, but So, Jeremiah, if
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: you've never heard the contest, you've now heard your voice
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: on Big 98.7 for the first time.
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: But what a cool story.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Wait, wait.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: He didn't do the laugh for you?
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: No.
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: That's disappointing.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: I tried to get it. He couldn't do it. He
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: wasn't in fourth grade anymore.
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: You know how long ago that was? It was like
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: 10 years ago now.
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, right, right, right. Do you remember the first time
• 13:29
  Speaker 6: you ever heard your voice on the radio? Let us
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: know at 701-280-7000. one, nine, eight, seven.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: I know Angie has a pretty cool, like, I think
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: is it the first time or is that just how
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: you got into it?
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: No, the very first time I heard myself on air
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: on the radio was the way I got into radio
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: in the first place was that I won a contest
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: to co-host the morning show.
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: And so I did it.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: And then, you know, they replayed audio on the website
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: because people had to like, you know, chime in and
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: be like.
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: She's great.
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: Or she's the literal worst. And so I, hit play
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: on the thing.
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: And I heard my voice for the first time and
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: it was very surreal. And also like, that's what I
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: sounded like this whole time.
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: I think, isn't there Megan something in like, you think
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: you hear yourself, your voice in your head sounds different
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: than I think what you sound like on there.
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: It does.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: 100%.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Like, you know, you think you don't sound that high
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: pitch and then you're like, Oh, but you do to
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: everybody else, but not my head.
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: My voice is so deep on the air.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: And if you have never heard your voice on the
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: radio and would like to this morning, why don't we
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: just go ahead and make this the first time for you?
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: 701-280-1987.
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: The first time I ever heard my voice on the radio.
• 14:40
  Speaker 6: You're so right. It sounded like this. This is Am
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: I the Problem?
• 14:54
  Speaker 8: We'll hear one side of the story and with your help,
• 14:58
  Speaker 8: decide if it's right or if maybe you're the problem.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: That's right. I am the problem. On Big 98.7. Cora
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: wrote in to us. Good morning, Big 98.7.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Hope you're well this morning. I'm emailing you to get
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: your opinion on a mom decision I recently made that
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: is upsetting my daughter. She's having a sleepover party for
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: her 11th birthday party, and she wants to invite five
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: of her friends. And I said, of course, so long
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: as she doesn't invite her very, very, in all caps,
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: chatty and loud friend, who kept the whole house up
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: the last time she slept over.
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: I'm not the only mom who feels this way about
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: this girl.
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: She is very sweet, but just so, in all caps, loud,
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: that you can expect.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: No sleep if she's over.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: My daughter is bummed and is begging me to reconsider.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: But my work week starts on Sundays very early and
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: I'm already sacrificing some sleep to let the girls stay
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: up late for my daughter's birthday. Am I being a
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: mean mom like my daughter suggests?
• 16:13
  Speaker 6: Yes. We'll get this up.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: On the Big 98.7 Facebook page. But what are your
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: thoughts on this? Is Cora being a mean mom?
• 16:22
  Speaker 7: 701-280-1987.
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: Let us know.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: Megan, you immediately think that this is mean mom behavior?
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: Well, that poor girl. Her friends need to have a
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: chat with her and be like, hey, you know what?
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: Our moms don't want to have you over if you
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: don't shut up. Your daughter needs to have a chat
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: with her.
• 16:41
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: I mean, I was probably the chatty kid growing up.
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: Maybe not that bad. I wasn't loud, but I mean,
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: I still chat. There's a reason I'm on radio.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: But I mean, to punish her to not be able
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: to come over for the sleepover, like. That's harsh.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: I know that makes me kind of sad.
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: What do you think, Gabe?
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: I feel bad for this poor girl because I'm sure
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: that was also me growing.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Up.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Gabe can come over, but he's leaving by nine is
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: probably a conversation that many of my friends heard growing up.
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: I feel bad.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: And honestly, I just feel bad for me because in
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: 11 years, I'm going to have to make decisions like this.
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: Oh, that's right.
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: You're learning.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: You are a golden after all.
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: Also, side note, shout out to dad who's going to
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: be there Sunday morning. What's her name, Cora?
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Cora's going off to work early Sunday. The kid's got
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: to be there with someone. So big shout out to
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: that dad. That's a whole slumber party of girls he's
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: going to be with.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: Cora, I don't know that we were the ones to
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: email because I, well, obviously I'm a chatty Cathy, also
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: in radio, but also I'm Cuban B.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: Loud is in my DNA.
• 17:51
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: I definitely was this kid, the super loud one. Like,
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: couldn't help myself. And I would feel miserable if I
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: wasn't invited to something just because I can't shut my trap.
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: Like, you don't want to, like, make it so that
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: girl doesn't have friends anymore. Like, that would be the
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: hardest part of all. But is there some, like... If
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: you have your husband there, can you put on, like,
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: noise cancellation, like, headphones for the night to sleep so
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: that you get some sleep and your husband wakes you
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: up or the alarm or something? Is there some way
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: that you can find?
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like there's got to be something. Because
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: the thing is, I understand, you.
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: Know, if you work or, boy, do we understand working early.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: So well.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: If you're working early and so you want to be
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: able to get some sleep, but it's your daughter's.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: If this was a regular old sleepover, fine.
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: Sleepover?
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: But this is your daughter's birthday sleepover.
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: Once a year.
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: So I feel like, yeah, maybe you got to.
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: Make the sacrifice. Yeah, all right.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: Because the loud friend, the loud chatty friend, I bet
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: you she's the most fun.
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: That's what we're going to go with. I mean, somehow
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: we want to help you. Like, how do we get
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: you sleep and her to still have her way? So
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: maybe that's really, like, how do we help her out
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: to make that happen?
• 19:03
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: Well, if you were.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Likely not the chatty friend at the sleepover. What would
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: you do?
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: 701-280-1987.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Let us know this morning.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: We had Cora write in to us asking if she
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: was a mean mom for banning one of her daughter's
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: friends from the birthday sleepover.
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: The thing is, the friend is.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: So unbelievably loud and chatty that whenever she does spend
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: the night, no one gets any sleep. No one in
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: the house, not the kids, not the family, nobody. And
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: so she wants.
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: To know she's mean for making that ban. And you
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: have some thoughts.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: I love everyone who's chimed in. in as three really
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: chatty loud radio hosts. We're team the kid on this one.
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: I'm like, we should know this kid's name because they
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: probably have a future in radio that we should introduce
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: them to right now.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: Do we need an 11-year-old intern? I've kind of gone
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: back and forth on this a little bit. I think
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: there's a good opportunity here. For a learning lesson for
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: sadly chatty friend that like, hey, you just don't get
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: to do sleepovers if we don't learn how to calm
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: down at a certain time. You're a monster, Gabe. That
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: is a good life lesson. Good life lesson, but also
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't have the heart to do it.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: I love that there's some good advice already coming because
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: that's kind of like, okay, what's some advice? How can
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: we navigate around this? How about this coming in in
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: our chat club? Have a sleepover on a Friday night
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: instead of a Saturday night. You don't have to worry
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: about getting up to go to work the next morning.
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: And then they write back as an added bonus.
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: Kids are usually.
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: More tired on a Friday after being in school all
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: day than a Saturday night. It's a win-win. I love this.
• 20:52
  Speaker 5: That's actually really smart. I love that.
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: Leanne.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: Leanne.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: Leanne chimed in on Facebook. How about no sleepover and
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: have a different kind of party? Then the loud girl
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: can join in and you can get some sleep.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: The loud girl. The loud girl is my favorite. This
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: is kind of funny.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: I might want to, I'm going to leave this guy
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: anonymous just in case he is talking about this girl.
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: So I don't want to say his name, but he said,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: my daughter had that friend. I don't know if this
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: is the same girl or not. My daughter had that friend.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: I ended up waking, uh, walking her home at one.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: Her parents were in the morning. Her parents were not happy,
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: but the rest of the girls were.
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: Oh, wow. Oh yeah.
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: She can't be the same girl.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: Cause this daughter wants the girl to come to the sleepover.
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: She's the fun one who keeps us. She's how we
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: stay up late.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: She serves her purpose.
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: 701-280-1987. Your thoughts. How do you deal? I mean, in
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: like an overall umbrella aspect.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: How do you deal with maybe a kid's friend that
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: maybe you like or just kind of sort of tolerate?
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: That girl does need to have, somebody needs to have
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: a conversation with that girl, whether it be her friends
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: or maybe her parents.
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: You know what?
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: Maybe the move is, Cora, talk to, I hate to
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: call her the loud girl, but I do like that.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, I would take that as a compliment. Maybe
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: talk to her parents and be like, hey, we would
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: love to have Laudica, come over for the stuff.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: Laudica, keep over. But she really has, she's got to
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: be quiet.
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: And then have her parents talk to her about it.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: But I just don't want her to be excluded.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: Or expect that 1 a.m. we're going to be dropping
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: your daughter back.
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: That would definitely start a convo, that's for sure. Drop it,
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: drop it. Big 98.7.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I need some good.
• 22:50
  Speaker 8: Starting off the day with something good. This is Gabe's
• 22:54
  Speaker 8: Good News on Big 98.7.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Gabe's Good News of the day has got to be
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: the first flannel Friday of the season. There have been
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: so many fun messages and texts to us here at
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: Big 98.7. Julia took a picture of the flannels in
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: her closet, asked which one to wear.
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: Oh, I said the blue and white one.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: So if you put that on, Julia, please drop another
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: picture in the comments.
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: We also had and of course, I forget the name
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: off the top of my head, but someone who worked
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: at Target or works at Target and can't wear Marissa.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: She can't wear her red and black flannel because it's
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: against company policy or whatever. But you know what you
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: thought about us?
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: Like, girl, we love your spirit for that.
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: That's right.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: So you get to participate today, even while at work wearing,
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: I'm going to guess, like a red polo or hoodie
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: or something.
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: Right, yeah.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: All right. But thank you so much for all the
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: flannel Friday love and joy I think we've seen this morning.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Megan hopping in. And you have worn a flannel to
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: work on Fridays before. But your first time on the
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: Big 98.7 Morning Show.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Big deal.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: With the flannel. So thank you all for participating here
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: in studio. And thank you if you're riding in your
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: car and you went, oh, I need to grab a
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: flannel before I head to work today.
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: How old are you? How old are you? How old
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: are you when you're 17? I've been.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: Doing this for that long. So 19 years, almost 19 years.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: Every Friday.
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: Is that like a half a year then?
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: Almost.
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: Well, my birthday is coming up when I'm 36. So
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: it'll be 19 years. So, Pretty crazy that it's been
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: going that long.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: And it's so cool that there are, I know there's
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: people in Iowa and Winona, Minnesota doing it right now.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: So very, very cool to see happen. You know, my
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: favorite quote, if you don't hear it is the world
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: is full of nice people. If you can't find one,
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: you got to be one and never forget that broken crayons.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: They still color.
