  Speaker 1: What is the best compliment you can pay a woman?
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: We asked this question on Facebook and we got a
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: ton of great answers. Angie, you're the closest woman in
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: the vicinity. Could you speak for all women please? Valentine's
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Days right around the corner. Maybe there are some single
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: fellas out there who want to potentially get a nice
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Valentine's Day date.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Okay, I will not speak for all women. Sure, there's
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: not a.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: One compliment fits all.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: Now, I'm fully aware that I'm shallow, so here the way,
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: this is the best compliment that I always say. There
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: are three ways to my heart. Call me funny, that's
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: not shallow. If you call me funny, it's nice. If
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: you call me pretty, or if you say I look
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: like I've lost weight, I don't need you to tell
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: me I'm smart, like I don't care about that.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: That's fabulous. All right?
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Well, hey, Angie, know what you're so funny? Thank you,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: You're welcome.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: We asked this question on Facebook and there are a
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: lot of fantastic answers. Don you make me want to
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: be a better man? That's a film quote. She says,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I'm your huckleberry.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Oh that's a film question.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah it is, Yes, a great movie.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: And then we saw a lot of this, and I'm
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: sure this is true for a lot of people. Maybe
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: for others this might not be something that would really
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: do it for him, but for a lot of people
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: it does. You're a good mom, you're a good wife,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: you're a good grandma. Those all kind of under one
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: umbrella seem to be some of the heavy favorites.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: But I really like one like this.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: I think this is something people need to say to
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: each other in relationships more, or in friendships more, or
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: just coworkers.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: This is something you could say to anybody. I appreciate you.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: I like that, Gabe, I do appreciate you.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Thank you. I appreciate you too, Angel, thank you.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: All Right, Well, after all of that nonsense, Okay, supposedly
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: there is a correct day answer.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: Wait, so this is a subject to whoever? Okay, there's
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: like an answer, an umbrella answer.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Supposedly, Yes, there is this woman who wrote this article
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: and argued what the most meaningful compliment you can give
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: a woman? All right, and I'll give you a couple
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: hints here. It isn't about her looks, but about whom
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: kidding but it's about who she is. It's a compliment
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: that focus on focuses on character, presence and emotional impacts. Supposedly,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: this lasts longer and feels more authentic than an appearance
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: based praise.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: I have no idea what this compliment could be.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna tell you what it is, coming up
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: in about six minutes here after Hunter tricks with Golden.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: If you think you know what this is, hey, maybe
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: you came across this article as well. All right, let
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: us know it's seven oh one two eight zero one
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: nine eight seven. I will give you a hint right now. Though,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: if I were to ever look my what and trying
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: to be serious, look my wife in the face and
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: say this one hundred times out of one hundred, I
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: think she just starts laughing at me.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Oh okay, all.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: Right, what do you think it is?
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: What is the best compliment you can pay a woman?
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: Seven one two eight one nine eight seven.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Supposedly, this compliment would be the most meaningful compliment you
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: can give a woman. No, it's not you're a wonderful mom,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: You're an excellent wife. It's not even I appreciate you
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: or I appreciate everything you do Angie. This article, written
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: by this lady argued that this compliment, which focuses on character, presence,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: emotional impact, it lasts longer and it feels more authentic
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: than an appearance based praise.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Okay, the phrase.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Gabe, why are you laughing?
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: The phrase you enchant me is a highlighted as especially
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: powerful because it expresses deep admiration without judgment or condition.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: It conveys emotional connection, mystery, and sincerity, suggesting she captivates
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: you through her personality energy in a way of being,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: not effort or perfection. This Ultimately, the article says, the
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: best compliment reveals genuine emotional truth and makes someone feel
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: truly seen valued.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: Enchant me.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: I will say this in the privacy of my own home.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: When I'm with Mikey. We say some extremely corny, cheesy
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: things to each other, of course, yeah, very lovey, debby whatever.
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: If this man ever looked at me and said you
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: enchant me, the ick is activated. Ill, that is not
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: that's the worst compliment. Actually, I'd rather you.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Say you're kind of a B word. I'd be like, well, yeah,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: at least to be honest.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm from zero to hero.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: If you're at the ball Angie, you're you know, you're

  Speaker 1: we're to come up to you and you know, you're
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: sitting on your little cocktail or whatever.

  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, perhaps unrelated, I lost twenty bucks.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: You run kidding, I'm kidding, Angie. Do you have a
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: little victory for us today?
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: If you had to the Big ninety eight point seven
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: Facebook page, there's a little real that we shared where
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: you can see that yesterday, perhaps I was dressed inappropriately
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: for the weather. All right, Gabe has been on me
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: about the fact that I don't dress appropriately for how
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: cold it is in Fargo, and I have a whole
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: dissertation basically as to why. However, today, when I was
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: walking out the door, Mikey my boyfriend, looks at me
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: and he goes, you're wearing a jacket, And I said, yeah,
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: I got to prove my hater's wrong.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: And my hater is Gabe. I love that, okay, And
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: so I got in my car, I drove here, and I.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: Walked into the studio wearing a very cute pupper jacket,
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: and Gabe, I think.
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: You were proud of me.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I could not be more thrilled. You took my little
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: victory right out of my own mouth. But no, I'm
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: very happy you a jacket today, Angie. I'm proud of you.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: It's a sign of growth.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Well, to be honest, the only reason that I did
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: it is because I had to drive myself to work
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: today because Mike has is subbing today. Yeah, and it
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: would be my luck that when I'm by myself driving
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: it would break down or something, and then I would
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: regret not having appropriate cold weather gear.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Well, you should always be dressing appropriate for the weather.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: There are lots of stories I could tell you about
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: people who weren't. And hey, either really regret it or
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: b I want to go down that rabbit hole, but
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: aren't around anymore?
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Around hole? Dress for the weather? All right?
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Yes, well I did today, So that is my little victory.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: What about you, game, I'm very happy for you. Can
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I rifle off like four little victories? Yes, I'll make
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: them very quick. Number one, Angie has a jacket on.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Today I could. I'm like a proud parent this morning.

  Speaker 1: Number two, I watched the first episode of A Night
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: of the Seven Kingdoms. Oh yeah, this Game of Throne spinoff,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: and from what I've seen, I've tried to make sure
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: I don't get any spoilers, which I don't know how
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: there could be. There's only been one episode, but from
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: what I can tell, this is supposed to be a
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: lot more lighthearted the Game of Thrones. Yeah, so I'm
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: looking forward to that obviously. The characters seem great so far,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Sir Duncan and Egg, who's just this adorable young child
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: but here. Oh, also, the Minnesota Wild have won two
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: in a row. Of course, we got on Big ninety
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: eight point seven, and I told everyone to watch the
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Minnesota Wild because they're very, very good. And then the
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: very next two games they played, they got absolutely dogwae.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Oh no, But thank god they've won two in a row,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: so they're back kind on the winning side of things.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: But here is my little victory, and I'm hoping that
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I got signed up in time. I am going to
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: be taking a dad class. It's called the New Dad's Playbook.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: This class is for a first time support person learn
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: how to properly care for a new board and what
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: to expect those first few days. I will tell you
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: right now, I don't know jack squat about babies. I
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: mean zero. I'm real good with babies once they can
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: move and kind of operate and keep their head up
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: and maybe crawl. Yeah, and by real good, I'm still trash.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know anything, but at least I know they
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: can crawl. I know nothing about brand new babies.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: So you know, while you're the John Snow of fun, that's.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Right, your boy is gonna take a class. And I
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: think I hopefully got signed up for the one today
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: on time. If I didn't, I'll get the next one.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: But I've been waiting for January twenty to take this class.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: This is the cutest thing I've ever heard.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: I need to learn because I don't know what to
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: do I need.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: Documentation of this.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Please take pictures tomorrow. You need to report back, all
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: right with all your findings.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: All right, I got you.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: If I got, I got I should have signed up yesterday.

  Speaker 1: can sign up this morning. I'll get back to you tomorrow.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: If I took the class, I'll have some details for you.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: If I have to take the next one, we'll just
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: postpone it and i'll take the next.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Well, here's your first tip. We can't ever just kind
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: of forget about the baby, Okay, decent?
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: All right, it's obviously cold with the wind it has
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: been the past couple days. I mean twenty one, twenty
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: two below. You're well aware of that. And I very
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: very soon, well not very very soon, but all too soon. Yeah,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: we'll be entering a new phase of life called parenthood.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: And one thing I would like to know if you
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: have and this is especially especially true with teenage boys.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I think between thirteen and maybe sixteen. I think once
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: they're seventeen eighteen they grow out of it. Maybe I'm
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: dead wrong. What age do kids grow out of the
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: they're too cool to wear a jacket? All right, I
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: need to know seven oh one two eight zero one,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: nine eighty seven, because I have tried tried to practice
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: this speech on Angie the past couple days on the
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: importance of wearing a jacket. Yeah, when it is cold, okay,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: you never know what's going to happen in your car.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: You could and be in a ditch and stuck. It
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: could not start, you could run out of heat, it
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: could flip. You could have a seat belt on and
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: you might survive. But your windows shatter and you don't
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: have a jacket in the car, you freeze today.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, that's a good one.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: I'm just that one actually works at the very least
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: have one.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: In the car.
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was someone I run hot.
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: Here's the issue is that I feel like, definitely there
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: are middle schoolers. I feel like is when I experienced
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: this with Aiden, where it's like, I don't need a jacket,
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: I'm not cold, it's fine.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: And when he was.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: That was very good.
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: When he was in middle school, we lived in Washington
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: and so it was always raining, and so I don't
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: need a rain jacket, not a big deal.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, no, you need a jacket. This is annoying.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: But then he would say to me, well, you never
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: wear a jacket, and that is fair.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: Gotcha, he got me.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: The thing is I run hot, and so I feel
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: like I don't need to wear a jacket ever. I
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: think kids, you have to know the kid. So if
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: your kid tends to run hot, you have to like
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: know the signs, right, Is he never wearing a blanket
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: in the house, Like, that's what you need to know,
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: because if the kid runs hot, I understand not wearing
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: a full.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: On jacket, maybe just wearing like a sweater.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: H There is no one on earth who runs too
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: hot for minus twenty one.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: No quite literally, not a soul.
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: I did have to tell Aiden today to take if
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Mikey is subbing today, he usually takes them to school.
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so Aiden said, oh, I'm just gonna walk to school.
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: And I was like, no, you're gonna take the bus.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah you are.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: It's not that bad.
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: I was said, you're it's gonna be below And he
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: does not wear enough layers. I don't think, especially to
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: be walking to school. So, and he's a freshman now,
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: so I don't know when they grow out of it,
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: if they ever do.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Maybe you do seven oh one two eight zero one
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: nine eight seven. Did you ever have to have the
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: the talk? And I Am not talking about that talk
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about I'm talking about the talk about jackets
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: with your son. Let us know this morning on Big
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: ninety eight point seven, because I'm gonna need all the
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: resources I can if and when, you know, I become
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: a parent and they think I don't.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Need to wear a jacket, Yes you do. It's minus
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: twenty one. Okay.
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: In the world of rules in gray areas, one morning
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: show dares to ask the hard questions.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: We both know you're guilty.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: He's guilty.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Is it legal?
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: You're guilty of the worst crime of all?
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: On Big ninety eight point seven.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Have you ever noticed the law is like, we care
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: about your safety, but let's not get carried away, because technically,
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: even if you're trying to save your own life, you
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: still couldn't break into a car to do it. It's freezing,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: you're locked out, phone's dead, there's a warm car right there,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and the law would go, okay, but is that your vehicle?
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, no.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: But what I would say if you did happen to
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: need to break into a car to save your life,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: you'd probably have a pretty solid defense, and I think
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: most people would hear the story and go, you know what,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: that checks out. I'm glad you're alive, but in the
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: moment you are standing there doing some legal math, freeze
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: to death or explain myself to a judge later, because
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: nothing says survival like following the rules while try not
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: to die. I will let you know right now, if
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: you are in a situation, a survival situation where you
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: need to get into my truck to save your own life,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: I will not press charges. I will allow you to
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: do that, but do not touch my NSYNC CDs. Okay,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: you leave those things alone. Would you break it? Would
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: you break into a car to save your life?
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: Like?
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: Now you know what?
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: I feel like you tailor made this for me today because.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: You keep telling me that I need to be wearing
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: a jacket because what if something happens and I get
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: stranded outside in the freezing cold.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: But you also know, Gabe, that I am a rule follower. Yeah,
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: and I don't like to break the rules. So what
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: a dilemma i'd be in.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: You'd be doing legal math.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: I would just freeze to death because I don't want
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: to have to explain myself.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: So if you don't know this, I am very lucky
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: and going to be a parent coming up here sometime
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: this summer.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Yes, Gabe is gonna be a daddy.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Now, I don't know anything, and I mean we are
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: starting from the bottom of the barrel when it comes
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: to baby babies. You know, once they can kind of
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: open their eyes and move and crawl around and whatever.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty I'm pretty solid there. I'm pretty locked in.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: But I know zero about babies. So a I am
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: signing up for a class called the New Dad's Playbook,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: and it's a class for a first time support person.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: You can learn how to properly care for a newborn
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: and what to expect those first few days. I need
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: eighteen of these classes, if I'm being realistic, because the
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: chances of me doing well in the first one, well,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: history shows not great, so I might need a refresher course.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, you're so funny.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: But I do think that this is a great opportunity
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: to ask for some advice. You're in a unique position
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: here where you can ask the fmiria that's right to
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: give you parenting advice. We did post this on the
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: Big ninety eight point seven Facebook page if you could
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: give Gabe one piece of parenting advice, what would it be?
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: And you can do that also right now seven one
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: two eight oh one to nine eight seven if you
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: have any advice for Gabe as he embarks on being
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: a father.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: We got some excellent ones. So I'm gonna go through
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: and I'm going to.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Tell you some that are like more practical and some
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: that are more like emotional about fatherhood. So I love this,
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: Amy said, pajamas that zip from the bottom.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: You'll thank me later.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: This is so real, Gabee.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: Yes, you see the babies and the cutie onesies, and
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: it's so much easier when you can just zip it up.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: When there's a bunch of snaps, No, it is so
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: difficult because your baby.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: This goes along with this.
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: Your baby will have hulk strength and you will be surprised,
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: but they have a strength unparalleled by anything else. And
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: so the quicker you can get their little arms and
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: legs into the onesie, the better, and snaps only hinders that.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: So yes, and they're probably wiggling around and moving away
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: all right.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: Also, your baby, this was from Sarah.
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: Your baby does not care about name brand items, especially
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: when they outgrow them.
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: Within months. This is too real. Babies are expensive.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: It costs like I think the last I checked, and
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: this was maybe ten years ago, that it costs like
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: six hundred thousand dollars to raise a baby through being
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: eighteen years old. They do not need Nike anything when
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: they're two weeks old, and they will not be able
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: to fit it.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: So don't do that.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Be a little more practical. Yes, I feel a.
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: Little bit more practical now. I like this that Dara said,
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: And this is just like more on a feeling level.
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: When you get frustrated, think to yourself that they will
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: only be this little once you reflect back on the
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: Oh I'm gonna cry, you reflect back on these days
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: in the future. The days will be long, but the
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: years are short. This is so real and I feel
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: so embarrassed right now that I can't pull it together.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: I have two kids there.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: You know, Aiden is fifteen and Liam is about to
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: be nine.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: Well, hey, you can relive the babies with my baby exactly.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: You'll get all the baby feels you need with mine
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: if you want. Angie, okay, so it'll be like you
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: know what I wish my puppy, my dog who's now
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: to something years old. It's just like there are times
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I miss when she was a little land shark at
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: two months old and exploring the world for the first time.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Same thing, same thing. I have a little higher stakes
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: probably well yeah, but I.
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: Can't Oh my gosh, I can't wait to babysit and okay,
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: these ones. Take candid pics of mama and baby. Kayla said,
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: this is super important.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Oh I'm in trouble here.
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: No, you have to.
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: I look back on all and I feel like a
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: lot of moms are in this boat. You look back
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: and there's so.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: Many pictures of the baby. There's so many pictures of
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: dad with the baby. But dad didn't think to take
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: any pictures of you with the baby.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: So it looks like they were raised by a single
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: father and you are nowhere to be found. So take
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: candid pics of mama and baby. This one I fully
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: subscribed to. Tabitha said, never hesitate to apologize to your
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: child when necessary. We all make mistakes, and taking responsibility
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: for that teaches them humility. I literally had to apologize
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: to Aiden this morning because I yelled to him yesterday
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: over something that wasn't his fault. Always apologize when necessary
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: and This is the final one. This is from Micah. Okay,
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: I'm not a parent, but as a former baby, oh
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: first hand experience, make sure to secure your furniture to
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: the wall.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Valentine's Day is right around the corner. I think, what
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: in like three ish weeks? It's January twentieth. Yeah, yeah,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: about three ish, a little over three weeks. If you
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: could give dating advice to single people, and first and foremost,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: nothing wrong with being single. If that's what you're trying
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: to do, if that's how you want to live your life,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: that is yeah, okay, you live your best life. But
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: if you are in a relationship and think, you know what,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: I wish someone would have told me this when I
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: was single. We would like you to share it with
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: us here today seven oh one two eight zero one
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: nine eight seven, Angie, if you could rememb number one
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: thing of when you were single, and you're like, I
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: wish someone would have told me that, or I wish
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: I would have thought about that or looked at something
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: like this way instead of that way.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what advice would you have given?
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: Uh?
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: I guess your single self.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: If you have to wonder if he's into you, he's not,
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: he's not into you, if you have to try and think, well,
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: what does this mean to he's not into you. A
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: guy who is into you will make it abundantly clear
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: that he is into you.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Now, fellas that advice would go the exact opposite way
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: if she's not just kidding.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that. That's great advice.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: I think most people genuinely, when they are into someone
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: and they're thinking about them and want to talk to
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: them or respond to taw, they usually.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: Do Yeah, exactly.
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: And I've been in relationships where I mean I really
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: forced the issue and they liked me kind of but
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: not really and it was a waste of my time. Yeah.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: And then the guy who like really made it clear
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: that he likes me. Well we live together, so yeah.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's also great advice too. Don't be afraid
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: to just call something quits and move on to potentially
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: something else.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Don't get to sit and force an issue. That's great
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: advice too.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: It's that sunken cost fallacy when you put so much
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: into something so you think it's worth it.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: No, No, it's not. Get out.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Yes, and we do have Jack on the phone.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: Jack.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: If you were to give advice to single people maybe
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six they're looking for a Valentine, or
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: they're getting back into the dating world.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: They think they're ready this year. What would that advice be, Man.
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: It's pretty simple.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: Just don't settle.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Wait for your person.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: It might take a little while, but it'll be worth it.
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: In the end.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: That's good advice. Patience is key.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: Do not settle.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: That is so real.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would have two, and one of these is
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: maybe gonna sound bad, And I don't mean it to
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: sound bad.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying great.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying mess with people's feelings or emotions, okay.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: And it's kind of like cast a wide net.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Okay, you can go on fun, harmless dates with multiple people,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: but once you are genuinely liking someone, obviously you need
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: to put all the other stuff aside. Talking to whatever
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, just because you go on with some one
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: date with some guy you met on tender, you're not together, Okay,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: you can go out with the other guy from work
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: who asks you or whatever the case. Me like, yeah,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: you know, it's it's a numbers game at the end
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: of the day, which sounds terrible. But the more dates
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: you go on, maybe the more you learn about yourself,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: what you're looking for, what you're not looking for. That's
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: what I'm trying to say. I'm not saying go out
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: and try to date five people at the same time. Seriously,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: that's a horrible thing to do to other people's feelings,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: So don't do that. And then I would also suggest
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: it's like, I don't know what I'm trying to say,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: but date to learn, not date to win. You don't
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: have to date to find the one, per se. You
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: could just be dating to learn things about yourself and
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: learn things that you want someone else to have or
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: qualities that other people possess.
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: I am so s s prized that you have that take,
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: and I don't know if that's a dig at you
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: are not well.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Maybe Tammy can turn this ship around here, Tammy, what
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: dating advice would you give to single people? Date like
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: you're curious and not desperate.
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: The minute I stopped treating every date like a potential
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: husband interview.
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: And more life, Yeah, let me learn a human then
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: everything got easier.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Also, if they're confusing in week one, then there're going
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: to be a nightmare in month three.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: I feel like Tammy sums up our dating advice really well.
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: Tammy just won this morning a big ninety eight point seven.
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: Starting off the day with something good. This is Gabe's
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: good news on Big ninety eight point seven.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Dan Backland he is not from North Dakota, but he's
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: from South Dakota, our neighbors to the south.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Here.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: He received a life saving kidney transplant from his nephew
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Dog in April of twenty twenty four, after facing declining
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: kidney function and the possibility of dialysis. The pair recently
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: shared their story at a Mitchell Lyons Club meeting, recounting
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: the extensive testing, emotional ups and downs, and delayed surgery
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: before doctors ultimately cleared both of these men. Doug, who's
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: forty one, he underwent surgery at the Mayo Clinic after
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: being told the odds of being a match were extremely small.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: Oh wow.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Both uncle and nephew have recovered well, with Dan now
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: living with three kidneys and Doug with one. The transplant
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: has given Dan renewed health, a surprise, new craving for
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: green olives, and more time to enjoy his four grandchildren,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: while Doug views the donation simply as a gift to.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Family that was such a big smile on my face.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a point in their interview where the
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: man who received the kidney, Dan, He talks about Yeah,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I like olives. It's very funny
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: that doug allis well.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: Now you have me to thank for that.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: So who knows if that's true, but it was just,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: you know, a cute part of that story. The world
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: is full of nice people. If you can't find one,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: you gotta be one, even if there are neighbors to
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: the south,
