What is something that ruined a vacation you went on? · Podcast - Big 98.7

0:00
I'm on vacation. I ever had a vacation ruined? You know, you
0:03
get so excited for these things. You're planning for months, and it's almost
0:05
like the planning and excitement before is better than the trip itself. But then
0:09
you know, some people have them totally ruined. Like this woman who this
0:12
is always back in twenty sixteen. She's been holding onto this one for a
0:16
while, okay, because she went on a Carnival cruise ship and her trip
0:19
was ruined by an illness that broke out on the ship. Over three hundred
0:25
people contracted this illness, and she says she specifically got it very very bad,
0:31
digestively got some bubble guts going on. Huh bad, so bad that
0:35
at one point she couldn't make it to the bathroom. Oh no, And
0:38
there was an accident in her room. Okay, gross, So she requested
0:43
from Carnival that she get a new room. Did she destroy it? There
0:47
was obviously enough to damage get How do you ask for a new room?
0:51
I mean, what's the limit for you? Like? How much is okay?
0:55
Okay? Feel like it's like, okay that that was a bad situation.
0:58
We're gonna like throw it away and if that's me, I'm not telling
1:00
anybody. First of all, of course, I'm gonna take care of myself.
1:03
Well, she demanded a free room and they didn't give her one.
1:07
So now years later she is suing Carnival for a full refund along with damages.
1:14
Feels a little delayed, lady, But I want to know, have
1:15
you ever had a vacation ruined? Seven nine eight seven? How did you
1:19
have a vacation ruined? Two years ago, actually to the date, A
1:23
bunch of us went to Nashville, had a great time. We had so
1:27
much fun, and one of my girlfriends decided to tell me that you should
1:30
take charcoal because it's supposed to help with a hangover. Would you take charcoal?
1:34
They have charcoal tablets. I'm like, what, some random thing?
1:38
Do not do it? So anyway, I remember we got back late.
1:42
We were flying out the next morning, and so I took a charcoal tablet
1:47
because I'm like, oh, this is gonna help, maybe I won't be
1:51
hung over the next day, and did the exact opposite. I was hurling
1:56
my brains out for four or five hours. Don't think I was going to
2:00
be able to get on the plane. It basically like pumped your stomach.
2:01
What it was awful. You think it was the charcoal or the sheer amount
2:05
of alcohol it was. It was definitely charcoal. Yeah, nothing to do
2:07
with the combo did not work. No, of course it was horrifying.
2:12
There's no solution for a hangover. If you had drank a bunch, You're
2:16
not gonna feel good. There's just no way around it. Right, Okay,
2:21
that's that's no fun. No, it was brutal. I'll tell you
2:23
about the vacation I had ruined by the way, if you have a story,
2:25
seven one two ninety eight seven. But we went all the way to
2:28
Las Vegas because this was like probably five years ago blink win eighty two.
2:31
If you didn't know, favorite band in the world, Border, you know,
2:34
just obsessed. Aren't you heading back there in October to see him?
2:37
Correct? Yeah, that's why I'm a little nervous because the last time we
2:38
tried to go to Vegas, they were doing a residency at the Rito I
2:42
believe. And we get there and we're literally at dinner. I think we're
2:45
eating at the Margaritaville of course, right getting ready to go to the show,
2:49
and I'm scrolling Facebook because I can't sit at dinner, you know,
2:51
without being on my phone. Yeah, and I see your post from Blink
2:54
Win eighty two. The show's canceled. The show that we had flown all
2:59
the way across the country. Stop it. You saw it on Facebook before
3:01
they even alerted people that had tickets. It was an official alert from the
3:06
band, an official statement that Travis Barker, the drummer, had blood clots
3:09
in his arms and he wouldn't be able to perform. Now I'm like,
3:13
Okay, obviously concerned for this man's health, but also devastated. Now that's
3:17
said, I means to be stuck. I know, But I mean,
3:22
if that's the reason you're going somewhere, that would just be so upsetting.
3:25
And speaking of that, are they going to be able to go on with
3:28
that show? Because I think Courtney and Travis are about to have a baby.
3:30
Yeah, he's not gonna be there for that baby. I don't care.
3:34
No, you're just making sure he's in Vegas. Those are my orders.
3:37
He will be in Vegas. And then and then proceeded. They had
3:38
a show booked in Morehead and Bluestem, which is crazy, but anyway,
3:43
they end up canceling that too. So I'm just like on the streak of
3:46
canceled Blink when eighty two shows maybe you're the problem. Yeah, I believe
3:50
they're intimidated by your band. They're like, oh, we can't these guys
3:53
can't watch or no in the morning, Big Nutty eight points seven all right.
4:00
One of the great urban legends of our time, the lochness Monster Nessy.
4:06
Remind me, this is the like dinosaur underwater. Basically, it looks
4:11
like Stegasaurus. It looks like a long neck, looks like a big dinosaur
4:15
who lives in Scotland in a lake. Now, the first photo of NeSSI
4:18
appeared in nineteen thirty three. Some say maybe been a hoax, and over
4:26
the years there's been a number of sightings allegedly. And now over the weekend,
4:30
two hundred volunteers gathered together to go on a hunt for NeSSI. All
4:34
right, two hundred people imagination jump in like at scuba gear and they were
4:39
going down. I mean, what is Oh. They had all sorts of
4:42
equipment. They were planning on recording. They had drones for underwater drones,
4:46
they had in the air drones, they had audio recording equipment. Now what
4:49
sparks this. Well, these are just two hundred nessy obsessed folks. They
4:54
just they had a Facebook group, Let's find NeSSI today, and they just
4:57
decided we're going to go to town. I imagine they have a group that
5:00
meets once a week. Well, they got together organizers and now a little
5:03
excitement came about when they detected some what they described as gloop sounds coming from
5:11
the ocean. Now, if you're unfamiliar with what a gloop sound is,
5:14
I imagine it's something like this. That's what I was wondering, like gold
5:20
gold. I bet that was nasty, like somebody find me. I gotta
5:25
get out of here. And that's just it. I mean, what else
5:28
could it be. It's obviously nasty. So they're thinking, well, chiefs,
5:31
thank god we heard that. That's obviously nasty, and we all got
5:34
it all recorded. But we can show it to the world improve once and
5:38
for all. The nasty exists. But wait a minute, somebody forgot to
5:42
hit record, so it's as good as useless. Okay, let's just say,
5:49
for instance, they were to get the recording and then they bring it
5:53
to somebody who's so they're gonna waste more resources on this and then somebody's gonna
5:58
go you know what that was? That was a trout? That was a
6:02
trout? I don't know. I'm just I just picked. You think Nessy
6:05
and a trout sound the same? I don't know. You are sorely mistakes
6:10
a northern pike. No, you're underst making the size of Nest. Can
6:13
I hear what pike would sound like? Underwater pike? It sounds like a
6:19
neoz deuce? Like, no, you gotta explain what you're talking about.
6:27
A number two, I mean a big one. But maybe that's what you
6:33
were getting after. But I thought, surely it's too early in the morning
6:35
for her to say that. No. No, Now the volunteers did concede
6:41
that it may have been ducks. Oh my gosh, how embarrassing that's I
6:46
mean, are they making fun of this at all? I mean they had
6:49
drones and stopped. Now they're dead series, because I mean a lot of
6:51
people in the world you can you can find two hundred crazy people to go
6:55
look for Nessy. What if we do find NESTI then what you kill him?
6:58
Right? But also, do you think NeSSI still alive? That's what
7:00
I'm saying. Nineteen thirty three. We're going on a hundred years of nassy
7:03
now, I mean the dinosaurs they'll live forever, because aren't they comparing?
7:06
Of course they do. Nasty and a dinosaur. Will they look similar?
7:12
I don't know, That's what I'm want. Are they from the same fam?
7:15
I suspect nasty is mythical in completely? Yeah, I don't know.
7:19
I mean, you got turtles. You hear about these big tortoises that like,
7:23
we're born in the eighteen hundreds, so you know, NeSSI could you
7:27
know he could still be alive? And well, well if we do,
7:29
then we'll have to do like an ancestry dot com, get some DNA and
7:30
send it out in the morning. Seven. What is the perfect temperature for
7:39
sleeping cold? Because there was a study your home would be I don't want
7:46
to spoil it yet, but there is a study that determined the perfect temperature
7:48
for sleeping okay? And I think we all differ. Like for me and
7:51
my my wife, I want a cold, she wants it, you know,
7:55
normal, But I like for me, if we're in a hotel and
7:59
it's not what I'm not paying for the you know, the electric bill or
8:01
whatever, like sixty five Oh my gosh, my husband is like Iceberg straight
8:05
ahead. The colder, the better, no matter what. It's just crazy
8:09
to me, but our home sits at sixty eight. That's exactly where it
8:13
should be, even in the summer, like during the day. Yeah,
8:16
all the time. See what's is your If you don't mind me asking,
8:20
what's that Cass County electric bill? Look like you don't know? I want
8:24
to say, it's like eighty six. It isn't not sixty or eighty.
8:28
Come on, don't be sure you got a whole yeah, big house,
8:30
I'd have to give it. Keep it at sixty eight when it's ninety degrees
8:33
during the day. We gotta be talking about hundreds of dollars here, I
8:35
don't think so, I really don't. I think I would know if it
8:39
was hundreds of dollars. But pull up your household budget spreads. Yeah,
8:43
I am going to as we discuss this. But in the so, my
8:48
husband always sleeps with a fan so it's even cooler. And then we have
8:50
the fan in our room above us. That makes me a little bit cooler
8:52
and I love that. I like it, though, get it windy in
8:56
there to sleep, don't you? Absolutely? But I did read a sunny
9:00
and the one we're about to talk about it confirms it. But they say
9:03
that warmer temperatures are better for sleep, and that to me seems totally counterintuitive
9:09
to be hot in Oh No. Researchers at Hebrew Senior Life these are the
9:15
ones leading the charge on got it perfect sleep tempt They through eleven thousand nights
9:20
of sleep, determined that adults sleep best at temperatures between sixty eight and seventy
9:26
seven degrees, which is a huge window. Oh my gosh, I would
9:31
be naked and like somebody pour ice on me. Now we've done it,
9:35
like when we were living in Florida, like in it's obviously hot all day
9:39
and hot at night, like we would sleep at like seventy six seventy seven.
9:43
And it really isn't as bad as you think, Like that sounds like
9:45
some sort of living hell. It's not as bad as you think. I
9:48
don't know, Pike one, I had a total for you one twenty three.
9:52
Really, yeah, that's now, that's an efficient HVAC in the morning.
10:00
Then you're ready, ready, that's he is piping hot today. We
10:05
know Amanda Stills the sea. Look see, oh this is a jam I
10:11
wish Jessica Simpson would come up with some new music. I've never felt that
10:15
way, but I do enjoy the song. I know it's a good one.
10:18
Speaking of Jessica Simpson, she's being dragged on the internet. That's what
10:22
people do these days. They just feel like they can just judge your kids
10:24
because you post a picture of them, and she did just that. She's
10:26
got an eleven year old daughter who's adorable, and she was wearing a crop
10:31
top next to her mom, and people are now saying, you're sexualizing your
10:35
daughter. Why would you let her go out of the house like that?
10:39
You know all the things as a mom you want to hear about your kids.
10:41
You've chosen to let them do that. Did Jessica clap back at the
10:46
haters? I love when celebrities do that. I haven't seen any clap back.
10:50
I feel like she's one of them that just ignores she does a really
10:52
good job at whatever. Are you gonna let your daughter sitting who's what four?
10:56
Now she is four? Are you gonna let her romp around and crop
11:00
tops? I'm sure I'm guessing that the thrifty thrift store trend will be back
11:05
by the time she's in high school, so they're I believe they're wearing shirts
11:07
that's say like Grandpa on it now, so that'll be nice. Oh yeah,
11:11
like my sister in law, Lauren's younger sister, was like seventeen,
11:13
but yeah, like wearing the biggest pants you've ever seen. Yeah, I
11:16
mean giant pants. It's just dad, like straight up dad otfens. It's
11:22
absolutely huge baggy shirts. So don't have to worry about it for now.
11:26
Yeah, you know what, I can't even think about that, but I'll
11:31
parent her when it comes to that, and you guys can just stay off
11:33
my comments. Thanks. Nick does most of the parenting anyway. Well,
11:35
for sure. You know he's a huge fan of Sydney wearing a crop top
11:39
at four, even bikinis. He's like, yes, let's get them all.
11:45
I know you're getting just hearing that pike and how about some new jams.
11:48
I know we love when Carrie Underwood does Sunday Night football, but now
11:52
for Monday night football games, we're gonna be hearing some Timberland and justin Timberlake.
11:56
Oh wow. Yeah, they're teaming up to do a bunch of collaborations
11:58
for promotional spots Live telegas pregame shows because what so Sunday Night was always it
12:05
used to be faith Hill, which is crazy. Carry's been doing it for
12:07
what do we say, crazy, But it feels like yesterday it was faith
12:13
Hill. I know, I know, but she I mean, but then
12:16
Monday night was what Hank William was that Hill was he got canceled or whatever.
12:20
Yeah, it's football, yes, JT. Though, I mean maker
12:26
of such hits as the theme from McDonald's and can't stop the feeling. We
12:33
were just talking a little bit about I had no idea. How did I
12:35
miss it? In Sync is supposed to be collaborating well, I know,
12:39
justin timber Lake as a part of it for a jam Introlls three everything I'm
12:43
reading that's happening, and that's in theaters November seventeenth. Yeah, nothing officially
12:48
yet. But the movie, the Trolls movie is so JT's voicing the main
12:52
guy who used to be in a boy band in this movie, and it's
12:54
like I watched the trailer and there's so many little Easter eggs that would lead
12:58
me to believe that, and say is doing a song for the movie.
13:01
So it makes me excited because as a parent Now. I'm all about the
13:03
soundtrack. So if you know the kids are in the backseat watching something,
13:07
that's why we love sing. Rolls is another good one, because at least
13:11
you've got some good jams every week in a while. It's not just something.
13:13
Yeah, they will never be as good as our Heyday. I mean
13:16
the Lion King soundtrack. Let's go. Have you not wat sing? I've
13:20
seen sing? My nephews love sing. Yeah, I've seen. It's hard
13:24
to argue saying it is three two. I mean, dost compared to the
13:28
Prince Aliatada, I'm not And we're not even touching a whole new world yet.
13:35
The circle of life. Okay, you might have an argument here,
13:39
Ariel. Did you love any of her? Any of her bottom? The
13:46
fish part under the sea. That was a good one. Yuh, all
13:50
right, we'll move on here. Bradley Cooper and his ex Irena Shake,
13:54
I thought they were completely done. I knew that there was rumors they were
13:58
kind of hanging out about a year ago. They do have a daughter who
14:01
is six years old. I understand co parenting, I'm all for it,
14:05
but these pictures that have surfaced just after she's been hanging out with Tom Brady
14:09
on their little vacation over the weekend. See more than just co parenting.
14:13
Yeah, well, you just see them holding each other in the one photo
14:16
and you just think it's just obviously there's more going on than that. It's
14:24
fromantic. You're taking me to a place, poor Tom. What if Tom
14:28
really liked her? This guy just stay away from the supermodels. It's time
14:33
for him to a kuna matata somewhere else. Who feel the love somewhere else?
14:37
Tom, God, this is a sosten If you're not feeling something right
14:41

14:45
Quiet? We did the whole montage medley of all of them again, I've
14:48
played the alto sax Yeah, I know, sax man backup off. I
14:52
was like it was the last chair. I'm not trying to say I was
14:54
good, but I remember when we did Under the Sea, just tapping on
14:58
the foot, just I pretended like I was playing you, mister lin Leaf
15:03
up there. I'm guessing you weren't practicing much at home. Nope, kids
15:07

15:20
have one here from Diana. She said, my daughter got chicken pox years
15:24
ago on the third day of our two week vacation in Florida. Chicken that's
15:30
still a thing. We were stuck in a hotel for days second week.
15:35
Had planned a few days at Disney and they were able to kind of get
15:37
a couple of things in but oh my gosh, and then two kids ended
15:41
up with chicken pox on the way home because of oh my god, goes
15:43
there. I'm always so nervous. I feel like the week leading up to
15:46
a vacation I've really been looking forward to. I always start to get like
15:48
a tickle in my throat or something like my brain determined. You're kind of
15:52
a hypochondriact in that way. I don't know, well, just something about
15:56
my body. It's like, Oh, this dude's excited about something. Let's
15:58
see if we can pooh pooh that right. Seven oh one two one ninety
16:03
eight seven. You can either call or text. We got a text here
16:04
from Katie. She said, my parents and I were staying at an Airbnb
16:10
and I woke up to termites crawling on my pajamas. Yuck. How do
16:18
you come back from that? This just makes me itchy thinking about it.
16:22
I've never even seen a bedbug, but I've heard a lot of horrible bedbug
16:23
stories. All right, we have a phone call here. How was your
16:26
vacation? Ruin? Good morning? So we were actually down in Omaha,
16:32
Nebraska. Little vacation to Nebraska. Yeah, we went down and took the
16:37
kids to the zoo and sent a couple of times, spend a couple of
16:40
days there, and then we were driving home and all of a sudden,
16:45
dus North's two falls my car guyed out of blue. Oh no, oh
16:48
my gosh. And that area is like dead zone. If you don't fill
16:52
up like after Brookings, you have till what the casino. And that's pretty
16:56
much it was this in the middle of the day. Was it daylight?
17:00
Yeah, something like that. Oh thank god, because if that's at night,
17:03
I mean that area that's got some like hills have eyes vibes going on.
17:07
Yeah, and how many kids you got with you too? I have
17:11
a six year old and a one year old, and the one year old
17:15
is perfect to be traveling with him. Sure, yeah, he was,
17:18
he was. He was a p and it was just recently or it was
17:22
It wasn't like in the nineties, wasn't. No, this was literally like
17:26
the twentiest we got stranded. Okay, thank god, because I'm just imagining
17:30
me growing up being stuck on the road, like you can only play so
17:33
many Game Boy games, like you just be going insane. So so all
17:36
in all, how long were you stuck on the side of the road in
17:38
Brookings? Seven to eight hours with a one year old? God speed?
17:45
Oh my gosh, was in a gas station with nothing around, brutal.
17:49
Thank you so much for calling and sharing that story. Yeah, no problems.
17:52
A lot of people don't on our Facebook page, whether it's like a
17:56
food poisoning situation kind of which brought this up as far as the carnival cruise.
18:02
Yeah, but some people are going to exotic, warm places and then
18:04
finding out that they're allergic to the sun. Oh god. Or have you
18:07
ever had somebody that you've been on vacation with or if you've been at a
18:11
resort and they get sun poisoning and then they're just downing out, Oh god,
18:15
horrible. Yes, just being sick at all in a vacation. I
18:17
feel like though maybe there is this phenomena troop for you. I don't get
18:21
hungover on vacation like in Vegas. You would think they'd be there just hangover
18:25
central, But because I think hangovers are as much mental as they are physical.
18:29
See, I find myself usually getting a migraine, like I finally got
18:33
them on lockdown with medicine and like making sure I'm hydrating and stuff like that.
18:37
But I feel like traveling. I used to get supertense, anxious and
18:41
the day or two of any vacation because usually when I when I go somewhere,
18:45
I'm like coming in hot, You're getting the cocktails, you're having a
18:48
good time. It's like, oh, I've been on trips with you.
18:49
Yeah, we're not even out of the Fargo International Airport and you're boning up
18:53
point three so stop it. But then you're like, gosh, why did
18:57
I do that? And you're so it's so two ninety eight seven. By
19:02
the way, if you have your vacation ruined, I'm telling you're not really
19:03
ruined, but more of an awkward situation. What happened? Okay, so
19:07
we're on that moving sidewalk. Yeah, so there is a woman and her
19:14
elderly mother in front of us, and they get to the end and they
19:17
both drop and start tumbling, both of them. Yeah, oh my gosh,
19:21
like they had no idea how to operate us or a distracted time and
19:25
went, oh no, yep, they just drop. I will say,
19:29
when you get on and off that thing, you do have to be a
19:32
bit of an athlete. I mean they're moving, you know what I mean.
19:34
Well, it depends if you're if you're in a go zone. See
19:37
for us, it's fun because this is how we actually entertain our kids at
19:41
the airport. Now, it's like you just go round and round and round
19:45
on that thing. Oh you're that fam I am that family, yep,
19:48
getting our steps in. But what ended up happening. I ended up accidentally
19:51
grabbing the elderly mother's but while I was trying to help them get back up,
19:56
didn't see that coming. Okay, curveball. They grabbed the ladies rear
20:00
than one. We finally all got up, someone shut it off and they
20:06
ended up being on the same flight as us. It's a good story,
20:08
though that's kind of fun. You're humiliating for them, that would be very
20:11
embarrassing. The most annoying thing about those things is that, you know,
20:15
people don't get that you're one. You're supposed to be walking. If you're
20:18
gonna be not walking, get over to the right side. From God.
20:22
It's absolutely the most frustrating thing in the world. Thank you for the call.
20:26
What was your name? By the way, Jamie? Jamie got it?
20:29
Bingo? All right, have a good day. Hi, get Amanda
20:32
in the morning. What do you think about this? This woman who shall
20:37
remain anonymous, wrote in b said that she broke up with her boyfriend.
20:41
Okay, now here's the reason. They hadn't been dating too long, so
20:44
it's nothing overly serious. But she had plans on a Friday night with him.
20:48
Now, she'd just gotten off work, needed to start getting ready,
20:51
so she texts him, told her what time she'd be over. But she
20:53
also revealed to him that it was her monthly visit from what are you ladies?
21:00
Aunt? Flow on Flow. Yeah. Yeah, So there's so many
21:03
ways we address it, you know, grown adults. Now it's like not
21:07
a big deal. Well sure, but you know, imagine these two not
21:10
dating that long. So she told him that, you know, she wasn't
21:12
feeling well. She had all the cramps and everything that goes with it,
21:15
and so he, being a good boyfriend, said well, jeez, I'm
21:18
sorry. Is there anything I can do for you? Oh? That's nice
21:21
A sweet guy, that is really She said, well, you know what,
21:22
actually he'd sent you live right by a store. Can you run over
21:26
there and grab me some tampons? And so he said, you know what,
21:33
you know, why don't we do that when you get here, we
21:33
can go together or something. So she's like, okay. So when she
21:37
got over there, she said she asked him point blank, said why did
21:41
you not want to do that? And he said it just was uncomfortable for
21:45
him to do that and he didn't want to do it. I mean,
21:48
that's fair. I would think your defense as a man would be Ah,
21:52
I don't know where to start, because that that aisle can be very intimidating.
21:57
Most men don't know the different and sometimes right away between tampons and pads
22:03
and like, it's just it's a lot of stuff going on. Absolutely,
22:06
But that's why guys is and brands and I mean all of those things.
22:08
You can't send a man in blind. You know, you don't just say
22:11
the box, figure it out, No, you give them the exact details.
22:14
And even then I'm still gonna probably FaceTime you and be like these Yeah,
22:18
I usually anytime and do anything. It's like I go to the internet,
22:21
take a screenshot. This is exactly what I need. If you could
22:25
find it, that would be fat And does your husband Nick get weird about
22:27
it? Or no, Lauren doesn't ask me to do this. I feel
22:30
like he might have a couple of times gone and done it for me.
22:33
Okay, I understand now. This woman, for her part, did break
22:36
up with her boyfriend. She said it was just too much, too immature.
22:38
See from what I've heard of this story, it's kind of like he's
22:42
uncomfortable. It's new that and he was asking you point blank, how can
22:48
I comfort you? Like what can I do for you? I feel like
22:49
that's pretty sweet. Well it might be a little dramatic here, but I
22:52
mean I get it. I don't know how old these people were, because
22:56
when I was younger, like, I can imagine the feeling of being uncomfortable,
22:59
Like, yeah, it's just a natural feeling. It's weird, but
23:00
like, why don't you think about It's like, okay, so I'm going
23:03
through the checkout it what am I afraid of? Like that the random Denise
23:07
working at the Walgreen's checkout is going to think that I'm on happy yeah,
23:12
my menstrual side. I actually think that most people are like, oh my
23:15
gosh, you have Hershey's chocolate bars and those what a great man? Are
23:19
you single? And I'm kidding? Maybe is there anything that you do get
23:23
uncomfortable when you are purchasing it? Back in the day, I just like
23:27
you, I remember being mortified, especially if it was like super like you're
23:33
getting like you feel like everybody is looking at you. Do you ever real
23:36
the sizes of them? Michael? Is that the biggest one? Like what
23:40
if it is like what if it's you're standing there and you feel I don't
23:42
want to Do you ever look at Do you ever look at what people are
23:45
buying when you're going to the grocery store? Do you ever like look at
23:48
what they're doing? I think a little cart peeking? Do you peek?
23:52
I'm a little peeking. Okay, So that's how you feel. Sometimes you're
23:56
like somebody looking at judging because you can clearly see what's going on in my
23:59
world. Oh yeah, if you're somebody who's working at a grocery store,
24:03
Okey dope, Why here we go. Fun night for you. It is
24:07
just such an awkward situation. Like you know, back in the day,
24:10
I remember like purchasing, you know, being a very safe young man.
24:14
Right, so go and move with my safety things. And I just would
24:18
I would just get it out of the way, get the awkwardness out of
24:21
the way. I'd be They'd be like, did you find everything all right?
24:22
I'd be like, yes, just the one pack of yeah, got
24:26
it. Please just go like okay, good luck, partner. And how
24:32
awkward I mean just that of course you do you set yourself up for those
24:37
moments. Some kids back in the day I remember talking about the same thing.
24:41
They would steal them. I mean they would go to the target on
24:42
forty second Street and steal them because they were that nervous because you didn't have
24:47
a side hustle. It's like, I'll do it for you because it's fun
24:48
for me. Interest rate now that well, that idea a minute in the
24:53
morning, big nutty eight point seven, i'spect a thing when you hear that
24:59
tough friends fucking this listens friend arrested friend, Well, this will be fun.
25:11
This lady is trying to get an apartment and so she's applied as you
25:15
do. And she put down her friend Kaitlyn as a reference. So you
25:18
know, she just called Kaitlyn and said, hey, if you get a
25:19
call from these people, just give me a good referenced Caitlyn. Love this
25:25
girl. She's being silly. She said, why don't we just you know,
25:26
maybe prank caller? So she called us, So that's what we're trying
25:30
to do, all right, Chance? Hello, Yeah, Hi? Is
25:36
this Melanie Ni Hi? Ken Shamrock here over at Properties. Just had a
25:41
little update on the apartment rental application we'd received from you. Okay, okay,
25:47
great, Well it's bad news, Melanie. We talked to one of
25:51
the references you put down on the application. We have reason to believe,
25:55
based on the information we got from this reference that you aren't exactly going to
25:59
be a good fit as far as being a tenant in this specific apartment building.
26:04
Based on what they said, what can you just tell me who the
26:08
references so that I can call up at them. No, can do,
26:11
Melanie. But what I can tell you is, well, they said you
26:15
were stanking. Excuse me, yeah, they said you were quote stanking from
26:22
their experience, I just don't understand what that means or how that it could
26:27
be ground for, yes, not leasing me an apartment. And that's a
26:32
crazy thing, Melanie, is that we don't really understand either, But we
26:34
just got to air on the side of caution here. I can tell you
26:37
a little bit of context of how they used the word stanking, if you
26:41
know, if you would be maybe that would help you. Basically, it
26:45
said, quote, Melanie was rarely home, but when she was, she
26:48
was stanking. Look, it kind of just left it there. I don't
26:52
think that this is like a legal grounds for not being able to leasing an
26:56
apartment. Well, legally have discretion who we rent and don't rent to,
27:02
so that's really not up for discussion. Look, I need you to tell
27:04
me who this was. It was my reference after all, so I think
27:07
I'm entitled to know who gave this review. Like I, let's flip the
27:12
rolls here, Melanie put the you know, put my shoes on for a
27:15
second. I said, hey, Melanie, we got a roommate for you.
27:17
But the only thing we know about him is that they were stanking.
27:19
You know, how do you feel about that? Look, I don't know
27:22
what it means on Urban Dictionary, Okay, I don't have time to ask
27:26
set up for now? Look up? You go ahead, look it up,
27:27
and then while you're at a google a different apartment company because you're gonna
27:30
have to live with somewhere else. Sorry, Okay, No, I really
27:33
need you to give me whoever said that. I need you to give me
27:37
the reference because I need to follow up of them. Please don't throw away
27:41
my application, Melanie, mel can I call you, melt I got,
27:48
I got. I can tell you who it is, Okay, but you
27:49
can't be mad at them. Promise. Well, I'm not going to promise
27:53
that, but I just need to know who it is. Well, it
27:55
was your friend Caitlin you put down as a reference. What, Yeah,
27:59
Caitlyn said. Okay, I'm gonna be honest. I got news. This
28:02
is not the rental apartment company. Don't worry. Oh, I guess you're
28:06
getting the apartment. I don't want to speak out of turn here. Maybe
28:07
you're not. It's Pike and Amanday in the morning, a big ninety eight
28:11
point seven, Melanie, we were totally kidding. Is a prank call.
28:12
Don't worry? Oh my god, Hatelin. He says you're stanky girl,
28:19
You're stanky. Thank you. Oh my god, Melanie, in this day
28:23
and age, you can't trust somebody who stank it. You just can't.
28:26
You know what that means. I really don't even know what that means.
28:30
Oh, I'm going to kill her. I don't do that. I'm not
28:33
gonna get anyone to rent to a convicted murderer. Oh, you're right,
28:37
You're right. I can't believe I fell over that. I get a minute
28:41
in the morning. Sign. Now here's what you need to know. Well,
28:47
it was buzzing morehead last week and now recent changes to Minnesota's Department of
28:51
Education laws, they're causing more school resource programs to be temporarily suspended. The
28:56
Clay County Sheriff's office met with school officials at DGF and Youln hit it All
29:00
and agreed to temporarily suspend their SRORO program until they receive clarity from legislators and
29:06
state agencies. Governor Bergham he continues to try and get his name out there
29:11
as a presidential contender, and ahead of the second Republican debate yesterday, he
29:17
sat down for an interview and he was as point blank, would you consider
29:21
being Donald Trump's running mate? Did not hesitate with his answer Pike, he
29:26
said, no, I would not happy to do a lot of other things,
29:30
though, I wonder why. I wonder why you feel like you would
29:33
make a good vice. I guess not trying to get into it here,
29:37
but honestly, no idea like for me. I feel like he's the energy
29:41
guy for like the cabinet or something much if he doesn't make presidency. It's
29:45
going to be interesting to see how this all unfolds because the second debate is
29:48
going to be on September twenty seven, and you have to have at least
29:53
three percent in the two national polls, or in one national poll and then
29:57
another in one of the state. It's either Iowa, New Hampshire, South
30:00
Carolina, or Nevada. Last time I checked, has he broke one percent?
30:04
Yet? You looked one percent of what that's just it like just one
30:10
percent? No, you know me, I'm just waiting for the caucus,
30:15
the Iowa caucus. When does that happen? Uh, I don't know.
30:18
Eventually. Thanks thanks for having a real combo with me. I really appreciate
30:25
it. Oh, you're trying to have a serious conversation. I was really
30:27
trying to You got the wrong guy, and the football season is going to
30:32
be here before you know what. It's already college this weekend, and then
30:34
the following weekend is already week from Thursdays the first NFL game, and then
30:37
that Sunday, my birthday will be the first big Sunday of football. Your
30:41
birthday. Brickhouse and West Fargo better scrap up because it's gonna be a wild
30:48
one. They still do the unlimited birthday drinks too. Why do you think
30:53
we're going Yeah, breaking news, Oh my, anyway, the world's largest
31:00
tailgate is going to be happening on Bike's birthday. And I'm kidding, this
31:04
is on September seventh. Kind of bizarre how they're gonna do this. It's
31:07
gonna be held outside of the Chief Stadium. They're taking on the Lions at
31:11
Arrowhead or yeah, Arrowhead, and they're also doing like a virtual deal for
31:17
it. It just seems ridiculous, Like what is the point of this?
31:19
Maybe, like in April of twenty twenty, I might have considered this,
31:22
but I think I'm done with any sort of virtual event. Oh my gosh,
31:27
that is so legit to it just doesn't even seem real. Yeah,
31:30
all right, weatherwise today it is going to be smoky again, Hive about
31:34
seventy nine looking at of your forecast, still could see ninety by the end
31:38
of the week.
