He Was 3 and Couldn't Read (Funny Child Meltdowns) · Podcast - Big 98.7

0:05
Speaker 1: I felt so bad for this mother. The other day,
0:07
Speaker 1: I was leaving Walmart. I'd went in to grab stuff
0:11
Speaker 1: to wash the truck at my house instead of always
0:13
Speaker 1: having to like go through the automated car wash. And
0:17
Speaker 1: I'm checking out and this mom she's there with her
0:20
Speaker 1: little son. And I didn't I was trying to not
0:23
Speaker 1: be nosy, but from what I gathered, this mom was buying,
0:28
Speaker 1: you know, a couple things of clothes for you know
0:30
Speaker 1: this like four year old kid or three year old
0:32
Speaker 1: kid or whatever. Yeah, and she didn't want to bring
0:35
Speaker 1: the hangers home with her. That come on, the you know,
0:38
Speaker 1: the clothes.
0:39
Speaker 2: Right, the hangers at home exactly.
0:42
Speaker 1: And this poor lady just dealt with a full blown
0:45
Speaker 1: meltdown in the aisle, you know, and everyone feels terrible.
0:49
Speaker 1: It's not like anyone's like blaming the lady. Everyone feels
0:52
Speaker 1: just horrible. And I was sitting there going so that's
0:55
Speaker 1: what it was like when I wanted that vest when
0:57
Speaker 1: I was four years old, done over a whole vest, Angie,
1:02
Speaker 1: here's what it was. My parents took me shopping and
1:05
Speaker 1: I wanted this vest, right. And when I say I
1:08
Speaker 1: wanted this vest, it wasn't even meant for three or
1:11
Speaker 1: four year olds. It was like, I wanted this vest
1:14
Speaker 1: so my dad could wear this vest.
1:16
Speaker 2: It wasn't even for me. I just like wanted the vest.
1:20
Speaker 1: At our house and I lost it in this coals
1:24
Speaker 1: And basically when I got back to the car, I
1:26
Speaker 1: had the life of life of death scared. I mean
1:29
Speaker 1: I never threw a tantrum like that again in coals,
1:31
Speaker 1: but that I was wondering this morning. Man, that's got
1:34
Speaker 1: to be the most relatable thing. What is the goofiest, silliest,
1:37
Speaker 1: stupidest thing your kid has ever thrown a tantrum over
1:42
Speaker 1: thinking about some pork not getting to take the hangar home?
1:46
Speaker 3: Kids funny kids mount down over anything. And it's always
1:51
Speaker 3: a surprise because there are things that it's like, why is.
1:55
Speaker 4: That triggering you?
1:56
Speaker 2: Right?
1:57
Speaker 3: So, Aiden, when he was like five, we took him
2:00
Speaker 3: trigger treating and he was Spider Man for Halloween, just
2:04
Speaker 3: like a bajillion other kids were Spider Man for Halloween.
2:08
Speaker 3: And we're walking and we're heading up to this house
2:10
Speaker 3: and there's a guy who's sitting outside the house with
2:12
Speaker 3: a bowl of candy and he's dressed in a Spider
2:15
Speaker 3: Man costume.
2:16
Speaker 2: And Aiden lost it. He starts screaming and k and
2:21
Speaker 2: we're like, what is happening?
2:23
Speaker 5: Why is there another Spider Man?
2:25
Speaker 2: Ah, there can be one.
2:27
Speaker 3: No, literally, there's the meme where there's several.
2:31
Speaker 5: Spider Man pointing at each other.
2:33
Speaker 2: It was wild to me.
2:34
Speaker 3: I mean, this kid was having a full and then
2:36
Speaker 3: we were like, no, look because there's more than it's hellowen.
2:39
Speaker 4: Then we're trying to explain to.
2:40
Speaker 3: Him, sir, you pick the most basic costume everybody was
2:45
Speaker 3: gonna be. I think Spider Man across the Spider Verse
2:48
Speaker 3: into the Spider Verse had come out so like it
2:50
Speaker 3: was super on the forefront, right, and he was surprised.
2:54
Speaker 3: I've that's main character syndrome. If I ever saw obviously
2:57
Speaker 3: there was gonna be another Spider Man.
2:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, at that point, go ant Man. They're probably on
3:01
Speaker 1: a ton of ant Man exactly not.
3:03
Speaker 3: But he wanted to be Spider Man like everyone else
3:05
Speaker 3: and then somehow offended and yeah, he had a foot
3:08
Speaker 3: like we stopped trigger treating. It was that it was over.
3:12
Speaker 3: There was on Facebook you posed this question.
3:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, I asked this question, kids, your kid melting down
3:19
Speaker 1: and why? And of course the response is they live
3:22
Speaker 1: up to the hype. These are all wonderful. I believe
3:25
Speaker 1: this is Naomi.
3:26
Speaker 2: She said.
3:27
Speaker 1: He wanted to read the Star Wars intro. He was
3:31
Speaker 1: three and couldn't read, and also never seen any of
3:35
Speaker 1: the movies. Of course, yeah, that's of course, that's so good.
3:39
Speaker 3: Laurie said, because he fed the dog his pretzel and
3:42
Speaker 3: the dog ate it.
3:45
Speaker 1: Okay, right, Carrie, she said. She asked if it was morning.
3:51
Speaker 1: I told her, in fact, it was.
3:54
Speaker 5: More that would have me melting down too.
3:56
Speaker 2: I lose it to I feel bad for that kid.
3:58
Speaker 3: Levinvan. What was the silliest thing your kid melted down over?
4:02
Speaker 3: Kimberly said she was very sad George Washington.
4:07
Speaker 5: Was dead on the dollar bill.
4:10
Speaker 2: How do you explain that one?
4:11
Speaker 3: Yeah? And Andrea said, my toddler was mad because her
4:15
Speaker 3: chip broke in her mouth because.
4:17
Speaker 1: She was eating so yeah, of course, how do you
4:21
Speaker 1: explain that once you bite the chip? Yeah, it's really
4:24
Speaker 1: just a bunch of creepies at that point.
4:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what's a foggy for you? This morning?
4:31
Speaker 3: It was foggy for me, and there was a smell
4:33
Speaker 3: that I didn't understand was what was happening?
4:36
Speaker 2: Well, that's the sweet smell of victory. Angela.
4:42
Speaker 1: We will talk a little bit about the game later on,
4:45
Speaker 1: but welcome to Viking Football. That game is everything that
4:50
Speaker 1: watching the Minnesota Vikings is like. All right, and we'll
4:53
Speaker 1: talk more on that in a little bit, but obviously
4:56
Speaker 1: very very excited, very cool for the Vikes. That kind
4:59
Speaker 1: of a little victory in and of itself. There was
5:01
Speaker 1: at one point where I'm just thinking, oh man, maybe
5:04
Speaker 1: i won't be tired at work tomorrow, Like if this
5:06
Speaker 1: gets out of hand, you know, there's no point in
5:08
Speaker 1: really staying tired for nothing. Yeah, and then you know
5:12
Speaker 1: there's one little play here, a little play there. I'm like, well,
5:15
Speaker 1: I'm back committed. But we like starting to show off
5:19
Speaker 1: on a positive note every single day, and we're going
5:22
Speaker 1: to do that with some little victories here, which if
5:24
Speaker 1: you ever have any, by the way, we'd love to
5:25
Speaker 1: hear them and or read them. Seven oh one two
5:28
Speaker 1: eight zero one nine eight seven. Chiming with those out
5:32
Speaker 1: whenever you want. If it's like two in the afternoon,
5:34
Speaker 1: you can still text it to us.
5:35
Speaker 3: We'll see see it, Gabe. My little victory stemmed from
5:43
Speaker 3: something that happened over the weekend. So on Saturday, I
5:46
Speaker 3: headed out with Mikey and the kiddos. We went out
5:49
Speaker 3: to Leonard because they had a little harvest festival, and
5:53
Speaker 3: I live.
5:54
Speaker 4: For a fall festival, okay, So.
5:57
Speaker 3: They were selling baked goods and fresh produce, and so
6:01
Speaker 3: Mikey is excellent at picking out tomatoes, like, okay, he's
6:06
Speaker 3: never picked a bad tomato. And so we picked up
6:09
Speaker 3: a couple of tomatoes, and yesterday we made belts and
6:14
Speaker 3: I took my first shot at making faux bacon with
6:19
Speaker 3: tofu and it turned out so great. Yes, the kids
6:25
Speaker 3: are not vegan for the record, so I'm not like
6:29
Speaker 3: just bias saying I did.
6:30
Speaker 2: A great job.
6:31
Speaker 3: The kids are obviously the ones who would tell me, like,
6:34
Speaker 3: no bacon. The kids were so impressed, and they were like,
6:39
Speaker 3: can we have this again tomorrow?
6:41
Speaker 4: But we ran out of tomatoes, so we.
6:43
Speaker 3: Gotta go to another fall festival and pick up some tomatoes.
6:46
Speaker 3: But they were super stoked about this tofu bacon and
6:51
Speaker 3: the tomatoes topped it all out.
6:52
Speaker 2: It was great. So we were just happy and full.
6:56
Speaker 1: That is wonderful. That's a very cool story. I suppose
6:59
Speaker 1: that's an interest saying what's the word not dilemma? Dynamic
7:03
Speaker 1: where you are vegan, your kidd's are not vegan, right,
7:07
Speaker 1: but I'm sure they eat some of the things you
7:08
Speaker 1: eat from time to time, and so yeah, probably an
7:11
Speaker 1: interesting road to navigate sometimes.
7:13
Speaker 3: Yeah, I always I feel like people ask me like, well,
7:16
Speaker 3: are you your kids vegan? But like I didn't become
7:19
Speaker 3: vegan until eight years ago, Like that was my choice,
7:22
Speaker 3: and so the kids can make that choice or not
7:25
Speaker 3: whenever they feel like it. But they know that if
7:28
Speaker 3: I'm cooking dinner, probably it's.
7:30
Speaker 2: Gonna end up a certain way.
7:31
Speaker 3: But if Mike's making dinner, there's probably all kind of
7:35
Speaker 3: meat and cheese.
7:36
Speaker 2: Let's go, all right.
7:38
Speaker 1: My little victory is there was a fall decor put
7:41
Speaker 1: up around the glitten house.
7:43
Speaker 4: Yes, oh my gosh, And I know it was your
7:44
Speaker 4: wife that did it.
7:45
Speaker 2: I know it's not you.
7:46
Speaker 1: Well that is also very true, but I did help
7:49
Speaker 1: get the boxes for the fall deckorse.
7:51
Speaker 2: She was like, can you help with the boxes?
7:53
Speaker 1: And of course, you know, we got the pumpkins all around,
7:56
Speaker 1: and of course she's all done, and she got just
7:57
Speaker 1: a disappointing look on her face. So the little victory
7:59
Speaker 1: is the fall decors up. She's like, you know, I
8:02
Speaker 1: just hate this fall decor.
8:04
Speaker 4: Oh shopping trick.
8:07
Speaker 1: So sadly it looks like I'm gonna lose some money
8:09
Speaker 1: on some courageous you know what, it does look very cool.
8:14
Speaker 5: I want to see and I feel like I've been
8:16
Speaker 5: here now for what six months?
8:19
Speaker 4: And how come I've never been to your house?
8:22
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I like to keep something secret. What Yeah,
8:26
Speaker 2: you know.
8:26
Speaker 1: It's it's just an interesting dynamic Angie on you know,
8:31
Speaker 1: on the way the tea is gone.
8:33
Speaker 5: You can invite me over to look at the fall decori.
8:36
Speaker 1: You can come over, but Corey's going to probably need
8:38
Speaker 1: to do some more shopping for other decor because the
8:41
Speaker 1: decor we have isn't decoring enough.
8:44
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, whenever that happens, I want to come over
8:47
Speaker 3: and see. You know, I live for fall.
8:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you could always come to the backyard
8:50
Speaker 1: and chill on the patio.
8:52
Speaker 2: Is there something weird like?
8:54
Speaker 4: Do not want me in your house?
8:56
Speaker 2: Oh? You can definitely come over basically whenever.
8:59
Speaker 1: Okay, the Minnesota Vikings pulled off what was a very
9:09
Speaker 1: exciting comeback yesterday, and if you are a Vikings fan,
9:13
Speaker 1: I just I want your take and I want to
9:16
Speaker 1: know if you agree with me here today that was
9:19
Speaker 1: the most Minnesota Viking game of all time. Angie, welcome
9:25
Speaker 1: to watching Viking football. You have you're an Eagles fan,
9:30
Speaker 1: but you have said, you know, hey, I'm cheering for
9:33
Speaker 1: the Vikes. I live here now, and you know I
9:35
Speaker 1: want Gabe to be happy.
9:36
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly, so I'm very supportive.
9:39
Speaker 3: I just didn't know exactly what kind of fandom this
9:46
Speaker 3: was or is, because I walked in yesterday to work,
9:49
Speaker 3: and because I'm an Eagles fan, Like our thing happened.
9:53
Speaker 2: On Thursday, Oh yeah, long gone.
9:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, we beat the Cowboys gay and you know, cool,
9:57
Speaker 3: But yesterday I did feel left out.
10:00
Speaker 4: I had fomo for sure, because.
10:02
Speaker 3: Almost everyone in this building was wearing a Vikings something,
10:08
Speaker 3: a hoodie, a jersey, a shirt, a hat. Everyone was
10:12
Speaker 3: like decked out in Vikings gear. And like, I saw
10:15
Speaker 3: a photo on Facebook where everybody got together and they
10:19
Speaker 3: took a group photo in their Vikings gear and everyone
10:22
Speaker 3: is like so pumped for the game, Like the atmosphere
10:25
Speaker 3: in this building was electric in all this anticipation for
10:29
Speaker 3: the game, and like, y'all are a hopeful bunch.
10:33
Speaker 2: Y'all are a hopeful.
10:34
Speaker 3: Bunch of fans where it's like, yeah, we're gonna win.
10:37
Speaker 3: We're making it to the Super Bowl, like come down,
10:39
Speaker 3: it's the first game, like. But it was just the
10:42
Speaker 3: vibe was so like and to the point where by
10:46
Speaker 3: the time I was leaving this building, I was like,
10:48
Speaker 3: if these bikes don't win.
10:51
Speaker 5: What is it going to be like in the building today?
10:54
Speaker 3: And by the time I went to bed, you know,
10:56
Speaker 3: my old self was not gonna stay up all night,
10:59
Speaker 3: which is what that feels like, stand up all night
11:01
Speaker 3: pass like eight o'clock is like bro. But by the
11:04
Speaker 3: time I was finally like putting my head to the pillow,
11:07
Speaker 3: I had checked the score and the Bears were up,
11:09
Speaker 3: and I was like, oh no, oh.
11:12
Speaker 2: Man, hoos day at work is gonna stink.
11:14
Speaker 1: Yes.
11:14
Speaker 5: I was so worried.
11:16
Speaker 3: And so when I woke up this morning, I checked
11:18
Speaker 3: the score immediately and it's like, dang, girl, that's not
11:20
Speaker 3: even your team, like, but you're invested now. Yeah, And
11:23
Speaker 3: so I saw they went and that it was close,
11:24
Speaker 3: and I was like, well, at the very least I
11:26
Speaker 3: know that I'm going to walk into a very happy building.
11:29
Speaker 2: That's right.
11:30
Speaker 1: Yeah, And as you just are kind of forced to
11:34
Speaker 1: see more Vikings news and hear it, you know, living here,
11:38
Speaker 1: I want to let you know that the game yesterday
11:41
Speaker 1: is exactly I mean exactly what being a Viking fan
11:46
Speaker 1: for thirty four years from or thirty four and a
11:47
Speaker 1: half years for myself looks like. Okay, the Minnesota Vikings
11:51
Speaker 1: on National TV on Monday Night football, they stink. They
11:56
Speaker 1: are notoriously garbage and getting blown out by thirty on
12:01
Speaker 1: Monday Night football.
12:02
Speaker 4: Oh, how fussy.
12:03
Speaker 2: I didn't know.
12:04
Speaker 1: They are just historically stink. When the nation is watching
12:09
Speaker 1: the game, it just is what it is.
12:11
Speaker 3: So if it's a game that's in the middle of
12:13
Speaker 3: the day, like in the Hullabaloo of Sunday on a Sunday,
12:16
Speaker 3: we'd win the Super Bowl.
12:17
Speaker 1: Oh, there was a game on National TV against the Cowboys.
12:22
Speaker 1: It was like two years ago or something. This team
12:24
Speaker 1: went out and lost thirty three to three.
12:27
Speaker 2: Oh oh it was wow.
12:30
Speaker 1: And then so no, only that, you know, the first
12:33
Speaker 1: half looks atrocious and you're sitting here going, well, the
12:36
Speaker 1: Vike's gonna vike right. Yeah, not only that, we have
12:39
Speaker 1: been waiting for this. The youngest quarterback in the league
12:43
Speaker 1: is oh the youngest, the onliest quarterback in the league.
12:46
Speaker 1: We have been waiting for eighteen months to see this
12:49
Speaker 1: dude play football. He is the first quarterback that the
12:53
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings have ever drafted in the top ten.
12:57
Speaker 2: Oh wow, I have never taken a order back that
13:00
Speaker 2: high in the draft.
13:02
Speaker 1: We have been waiting for a year and eight months
13:04
Speaker 1: or whatever it is to watch this dude go out
13:06
Speaker 1: and play football. And you know, everyone's so excited. Anytime
13:09
Speaker 1: you have a new QB. It's exciting, yeah, because.
13:12
Speaker 2: You're hoping like they turn things around for the team.
13:15
Speaker 1: He goes out in the first half, which no help
13:17
Speaker 1: from his coaches, by the way, But that's I digress.
13:20
Speaker 1: He goes out in the first half, and I swear
13:22
Speaker 1: to goodness, looks like he had never played football before.
13:25
Speaker 1: It was horrible. Now he's pretty rusty. And then all
13:30
Speaker 1: of a sudden, he's on his way to the Hall
13:33
Speaker 1: of Fame. Get him the gold jacket. He is going
13:36
Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame. The Vikes are winning the
13:37
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I never doubted him for a second.
13:41
Speaker 5: Way you're telling me this is what I can.
13:43
Speaker 2: Expect every single week.
13:45
Speaker 1: Okay, every single week except when they play at noon,
13:48
Speaker 1: then they usually play a little bit better.
13:49
Speaker 3: Well, I'm here to support it unless they play the Eagles.
13:53
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, not fine.
13:55
Speaker 3: I will always be rooting for the Vikes. And then
13:58
Speaker 3: what's the oh you guys won.
13:59
Speaker 2: So skull skull? That is right, school.
14:02
Speaker 1: Let me know your thoughts on the game seven oh
14:03
Speaker 1: one two eight zero one nine eight seven. As an
14:06
Speaker 1: advice fan, I feel like I could dive into this
14:08
Speaker 1: game in the minuw shove it, but we're not gonna
14:09
Speaker 1: do that this morning. I really just wanted to prepare
14:13
Speaker 1: ANGI for the next sixteen weeks.
14:16
Speaker 4: I feel like I should give myself a jersey.
14:18
Speaker 1: So let us know here at seven oh one two
14:20
Speaker 1: eight zero one nine eight seven, And be honest, did
14:23
Speaker 1: you go to bed early or did you stay up
14:25
Speaker 1: and watch the whole thing? I did stay up and
14:27
Speaker 1: watch the whole thing yesterday.
14:34
Speaker 3: On the problem, it is time for am I the
14:36
Speaker 3: problem where you send us your side of the story
14:39
Speaker 3: and we help you figure out if you're in the
14:42
Speaker 3: right or maybe, just maybe you.
14:45
Speaker 2: Are the problem.
14:46
Speaker 3: If you ever want to send us your side of
14:47
Speaker 3: a story, you can head to Big nine eight seven
14:49
Speaker 3: dot com, click the on air tab and make your
14:52
Speaker 3: submission right there.
14:53
Speaker 1: And the best part about this is your side of
14:55
Speaker 1: the story. I mean, we're only going to hear your half.
14:57
Speaker 2: That's right.
14:57
Speaker 1: You might be totally wrong, but whatever can you send
15:00
Speaker 1: us might be totally right.
15:01
Speaker 2: Exactly.
15:02
Speaker 3: While Garrett reached out to us and he said, hey,
15:04
Speaker 3: Gabe and Angie, I need advice on a situation with
15:08
Speaker 3: a friend I met online. We click really well, and
15:11
Speaker 3: while I don't have feelings for her yet, I do
15:14
Speaker 3: find her attractive and could see something working down the road.
15:18
Speaker 3: We've talked about meeting in real life, and one day,
15:21
Speaker 3: while chatting about relationships, I casually said I could imagine
15:26
Speaker 3: us together someday if we got to know each other more.
15:30
Speaker 3: She immediately got defensive, distant, and almost passive aggressive, like
15:34
Speaker 3: I had done something awful. Eventually, she told me it
15:37
Speaker 3: would never happen, and even said if I brought it
15:40
Speaker 3: up again, she might end the relationship. When I asked why,
15:44
Speaker 3: she admitted she just doesn't feel any physical attraction toward me.
15:47
Speaker 3: We've since smoothed things over, but I'm still hurt by
15:50
Speaker 3: how she reacted. Why wouldn't she just up be upfront
15:55
Speaker 3: from the start instead of shutting me down so harshly.
15:58
Speaker 3: Did I handle this wrong or was she just caught
16:01
Speaker 3: off guard. Thanks for your advice, Garrett. All right, Garrett,
16:06
Speaker 3: I can appreciate that the friend that you're talking to
16:10
Speaker 3: is hot and you think, well, maybe maybe we could
16:14
Speaker 3: something down the line. I get that, But you know,
16:18
Speaker 3: she wasn't a problem. She's not the problem in being
16:21
Speaker 3: harsh and whatever, because as a lady, like, sorry, it's
16:25
Speaker 3: not personal against you, it's just most of our experiences
16:29
Speaker 3: tend to be we have to be harsh and really
16:32
Speaker 3: draw a line or the guy doesn't get the hint.
16:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think silver lining hook. Yeah, yes, I.
16:39
Speaker 3: Feel like and I think every lady can agree with
16:42
Speaker 3: me that unless your own like borderline mean d yeah,
16:47
Speaker 3: guys will think like, so you're saying there's a chance,
16:51
Speaker 3: And I'm sorry, my guy, and so you know, maybe
16:55
Speaker 3: it did sound harsh, and I'm sorry that your feelings
16:58
Speaker 3: were hurt. But I'm team whoever this lady is, because
17:02
Speaker 3: she did what she had to do. You know that
17:04
Speaker 3: she's not interested now, right, Like the line is drawn
17:08
Speaker 3: in the.
17:08
Speaker 5: Sand, you know, and you have chosen to still.
17:11
Speaker 3: You said you smoothed things over, and you're still hurt
17:15
Speaker 3: by how she reacted, but you smooth things over and
17:16
Speaker 3: you're still talking so clearly, like you know what's what,
17:19
Speaker 3: and you're choosing to still talk to her.
17:21
Speaker 4: Now.
17:22
Speaker 3: I will say this, Garrett, if you try to circle
17:25
Speaker 3: back and be like, well, maybe now because we got
17:29
Speaker 3: to know each other, No, she already told you now. Yeah,
17:33
Speaker 3: so sorry, Garrett, You're a little bit the problem here.
17:36
Speaker 1: See this, It is true, Garrett. All is fair and
17:40
Speaker 1: in love and tender. All right, puffing up, puffing up,
17:44
Speaker 1: get a helmet. Now, here's what I will say, Garrett.
17:46
Speaker 1: This is why you keep the options open, okay. This
17:50
Speaker 1: is why you're DM in three, four, five girls at
17:52
Speaker 1: a time.
17:53
Speaker 2: Garrett. You gotta spread, oh my god.
17:57
Speaker 1: Gotta cast your net wide, okay, and then maybe one
18:01
Speaker 1: of these girls would be interested in you.
18:04
Speaker 2: Okay.
18:05
Speaker 1: This is why you gotta get on Tinder and swipe
18:08
Speaker 1: right on everybody.
18:09
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
18:10
Speaker 3: I feel like this is very personal advice from Gabe Blannon,
18:14
Speaker 3: who absolutely did this, but he ended up married, so
18:19
Speaker 3: I guess it were I think.
18:20
Speaker 2: The advice is that bad.
18:22
Speaker 1: Well, in all seriousness, garrettson, you're not the problem for
18:25
Speaker 1: being like, oh hey, like maybe we could work out,
18:27
Speaker 1: but you are the problem for being kind of a
18:30
Speaker 1: wiss about it?
18:31
Speaker 2: Does that make sense?
18:32
Speaker 3: Yeah?
18:32
Speaker 2: Tough enough. You know she doesn't like you like that.
18:35
Speaker 1: It's cool, But this is all confusing to me because
18:37
Speaker 1: she says she's not physically attracted to you, but you've
18:40
Speaker 1: never met in person.
18:42
Speaker 2: Like, are your pictures that bad? That's when you're supposed
18:44
Speaker 2: to look good.
18:45
Speaker 1: It's in real life when you look ugly online you
18:49
Speaker 1: look hot?
18:52
Speaker 5: What do you think?
18:52
Speaker 3: Seven on one chwolin on when I made seven Garrett
19:02
Speaker 3: reached out to us with his am I the problem,
19:06
Speaker 3: wondering if he was the problem for letting a friend
19:10
Speaker 3: a lady friend online know that he is potentially interested
19:15
Speaker 3: and he thinks that they could be together in the future.
19:18
Speaker 3: She responded with what he thought was very harsh words
19:23
Speaker 3: and said she said, no, I'm not physically attracted to you,
19:26
Speaker 3: and if you bring this.
19:27
Speaker 4: Up again, we're not going to talk anymore.
19:29
Speaker 3: So he wants to know if he was the problem
19:31
Speaker 3: or if she was actually being too harsh. My guy, Garrett,
19:35
Speaker 3: I think that, uh, you need to toughen up a
19:39
Speaker 3: little bit. She had to draw the line in the sand,
19:42
Speaker 3: because guys just don't take no for an answer the
19:46
Speaker 3: way they should. Like, I feel like there's if it
19:49
Speaker 3: seems like there's an open door even a little bit
19:52
Speaker 3: for flirtation, then the guys like she wants to.
19:55
Speaker 2: Be with me.
19:56
Speaker 1: We cling to that for dear life, like it is
20:00
Speaker 1: oxygen to breathe.
20:02
Speaker 2: Okay.
20:02
Speaker 3: We posted this on the Big ninety eight point seven
20:04
Speaker 3: Facebook page and Kim responded saying, I feel I feel
20:08
Speaker 3: like there's a second side to this story. Really hard
20:11
Speaker 3: to say. Yeah, and you know what that is true?
20:14
Speaker 3: With am I the Problem? You send us your side
20:16
Speaker 3: of the story, and that's what we decide on. If
20:18
Speaker 3: mystery lady who was talking to Garrett, if you want
20:23
Speaker 3: to reach out and give your side of the story,
20:26
Speaker 3: we're very open to that.
20:27
Speaker 2: Reach out to.
20:28
Speaker 3: Us Big nine eight seven dot com submit your am
20:31
Speaker 3: I the Problem. It's right there on the on air tab.
20:34
Speaker 3: Because yeah, I don't think we've ever had someone respond.
20:37
Speaker 5: This would be a good one.
20:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, it'd be great to hear, mystery lady. We're waiting
20:42
Speaker 2: for you.
20:43
Speaker 1: Garrett, as a fellow dude who has been shot down
20:46
Speaker 1: millions of time by ladies, I'll let you know, No,
20:48
Speaker 1: you were not the problem for you know, kind of
20:51
Speaker 1: shooting your shot or going down that Avenue. There's nothing
20:55
Speaker 1: wrong with that. You are the problem though, for even
21:00
Speaker 1: thinking that this is a little bit harsh. All right
21:03
Speaker 1: after she says that, you say, hey, that's cool. I
21:06
Speaker 1: was just checking the vibe. I was seeing the temperature
21:09
Speaker 1: of the water, and when you found out it was
21:11
Speaker 1: ice cold, that's when you put on your scuba gear
21:15
Speaker 1: and get into a different pond.
21:17
Speaker 2: Ashley just messaged us.
21:18
Speaker 3: She said, sounds like he has said something like this before,
21:22
Speaker 3: and she finally had to be this way.
21:24
Speaker 2: He's the problem. Yeah. See, I don't hate that.
21:28
Speaker 1: We're tough enough and we just keep swimming and it's
21:34
Speaker 1: hard not to be romantic about football. There is a
21:38
Speaker 1: couple that met at a Cleveland Brown tailgate before the game. Okay, well,
21:46
Speaker 1: all these years later, Desiree Wheeler and Charles Bevill Junior,
21:51
Speaker 1: they went ahead and got married this past weekend outside
21:54
Speaker 1: of the Cleveland Brown football stadium, making it kind of
21:57
Speaker 1: a full circle moment to And that got me kind
22:01
Speaker 1: of thinking, hey, did you ever get married in just
22:03
Speaker 1: a unique or interesting place? Because I don't think I
22:06
Speaker 1: really did. Seven oh one two eight zero one nine
22:09
Speaker 1: eight seven. I got married at a beautiful park, but
22:11
Speaker 1: I'm sure that. You know, I don't think that's all
22:13
Speaker 1: that interesting.
22:14
Speaker 3: I got married at a little chapel in Vegas.
22:20
Speaker 1: I get there is a reason I brought this up
22:22
Speaker 1: my whole life growing up in Minnesota. I was always like,
22:26
Speaker 1: I'd really like to meet one person who actually did
22:28
Speaker 1: one of these like Vegas weddings that you see in
22:30
Speaker 1: the movies all the time. Yeah, and you come along
22:34
Speaker 1: and I have found my Vegas unicorn.
22:36
Speaker 5: Yes it was me. I did it. It was a
22:39
Speaker 5: little Vegas chapel.
22:40
Speaker 3: There was an Elvis statue, but the Elvis himself did
22:44
Speaker 3: not the impersonator did not marry us. Yeah, there just
22:49
Speaker 3: was his statue there. But my wedding was sixty dollars.
22:53
Speaker 3: That's how much it was. I wore a black dress
22:55
Speaker 3: and leopard print heels. Now did the marriage last No,
22:58
Speaker 3: But I got two great kids out of it. And
23:01
Speaker 3: maybe if I would have gotten married at a better venue.
23:06
Speaker 1: Well if you, let's say, you could do it over again,
23:08
Speaker 1: and you know, you didn't do it at you know,
23:10
Speaker 1: a park or a church or whatever, and you could
23:12
Speaker 1: do it at maybe someplace that's kind of different or
23:15
Speaker 1: unique or you know where interesting.
23:16
Speaker 3: I want to get married in a library, in a
23:19
Speaker 3: really pretty library.
23:20
Speaker 2: I love reading, even though now.
23:23
Speaker 3: Because the kids are always so loud, I just zone
23:26
Speaker 3: out and listen on Audible.
23:27
Speaker 5: But I love I love a library.
23:30
Speaker 2: And Mikey he's an avid reader.
23:33
Speaker 3: And one of our big things is that we want
23:36
Speaker 3: to just visit as many libraries as possible across the country.
23:40
Speaker 3: He took me to the Yale Library. Oh cool in November,
23:43
Speaker 3: and like magical. And so if we were to get married,
23:46
Speaker 3: he better proposed if we were to get.
23:48
Speaker 4: Married, I want to get married in a library.
23:51
Speaker 2: I love that, Kyle.
23:52
Speaker 1: If you could get married someplace that's just maybe a
23:54
Speaker 1: little bit different, where would you get married? Man?
23:57
Speaker 6: I would love to get married in a cool movie location.
24:00
Speaker 6: And like, you know where Luke Skywalker grew up. I
24:02
Speaker 6: know they filmed it in Indonesia. I wonder if there.
24:06
Speaker 6: I might have to look into that more.
24:08
Speaker 2: I kind of like that.
24:09
Speaker 1: Or you know, if you could get married in winter
24:11
Speaker 1: Fell for Game of Thrones.
24:12
Speaker 3: Oh my god, you can't intertwine weddings and Game of Thrones.
24:17
Speaker 2: Those never end well, you know, I suppose you got
24:22
Speaker 2: a point.
24:23
Speaker 1: If you don't want it to go well, maybe go
24:25
Speaker 1: over to you know, Iceland where they did the rings.
24:28
Speaker 2: Okay, how about that one? Yeah that's good Abby. What
24:31
Speaker 2: about you a haunted house picture exchanging valves while someone
24:35
Speaker 2: with a chainsaws chasing your Bible party?
24:38
Speaker 5: Oh that's pretty Oh my gosh.
24:40
Speaker 3: You know what if someone wanted to get married at
24:43
Speaker 3: the crypt at Jacob's Manor in Leonard, I bet you
24:46
Speaker 3: Dave Jacobs would let them do.
24:48
Speaker 2: Yeah we know a guy.
24:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, have some very interesting news for you if you
24:59
Speaker 1: were member this iconic TV commercial. Do you remember hearing
25:08
Speaker 1: this on your TVs? If you were alive in the eighties, nineties,
25:11
Speaker 1: maybe even seventies.
25:12
Speaker 2: Take a listen, mister.
25:13
Speaker 6: Row, how many lips does it take get to the
25:16
Speaker 6: tutsil center of a Tutsi pop?
25:18
Speaker 4: A good Christian flitch? I note one two?
25:24
Speaker 1: Agreeree Angie, and I quote that in the hall on
25:29
Speaker 1: a daytime.
25:30
Speaker 3: I don't know what is our mutual obsession with, but
25:35
Speaker 3: it's just misterrollll.
25:38
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, you're headed to you know, Carol Whitman's
25:41
Speaker 1: candy co or something you want to get yourself a
25:43
Speaker 1: Tutsi pop?
25:43
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, you think in your head?
25:47
Speaker 2: How many weeks does it take get to the center?
25:50
Speaker 1: Well, they have updated that commercial. There is a new
25:54
Speaker 1: version coming out in twenty twenty five. I want to
25:57
Speaker 1: know if you can hear the differences, because there are some.
26:01
Speaker 1: They are very slight. Okay, but take a listen to
26:04
Speaker 1: the new one. Let me know which one you like better.
26:06
Speaker 3: Mister Owl, how many licks does it take to get
26:09
Speaker 3: to the Tuttiro Center?
26:10
Speaker 5: What Tutsi pa?
26:11
Speaker 3: Let's find out one, two, three, three?
26:18
Speaker 1: It has the same essence, but it's not quite the same.
26:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, crudeness, adorableness, very good, but not the same.
26:26
Speaker 3: So clearly, obviously the audio is cleaned up now because
26:29
Speaker 3: it's twenty twenty five.
26:31
Speaker 5: However, I think the Owl doesn't.
26:35
Speaker 2: I don't like the way he says it. It's not
26:37
Speaker 2: the same, and I.
26:37
Speaker 4: Can imagine why.
26:38
Speaker 3: Maybe it would be hard to get the same voice
26:41
Speaker 3: actor because what year did that come out?
26:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, so the old original Toutsi Pop commercial came out
26:46
Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty nine, so quite a time ago.
26:51
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, listen, I respect it.
26:53
Speaker 3: I'm glad that it's coming back in twenty twenty five,
26:56
Speaker 3: so I'm not gonna be a hater. I will say, though,
26:58
Speaker 3: the original Tutsi Paw commercial came out in nineteen sixty nine,
27:02
Speaker 3: which means my boyfriend was four years old.
27:13
Speaker 1: After reading the dog Man novel, a nine year old
27:18
Speaker 1: named Ethan came up with this really fun summer project.
27:22
Speaker 1: It was inspired by the character who set up an
27:25
Speaker 1: insult stand, only Ethan decided to do the exact opposite,
27:30
Speaker 1: and he opened up a free compliment stand that he
27:33
Speaker 1: set up at the end of his driveway. At first,
27:36
Speaker 1: business was a little bit slow, but after his father, Brandon,
27:39
Speaker 1: posted about it on social media, more people started stopping
27:42
Speaker 1: by for a compliment. The stand doesn't sell lemonade or cookies,
27:48
Speaker 1: and it only offers positive words, but business has been
27:52
Speaker 1: good and it's become a popular spot in the community.
27:54
Speaker 1: Ethan's mom, Jessica, says she was surprised by how strong
27:58
Speaker 1: the reaction was from neighbors and vis visitors.
28:00
Speaker 2: People describe it as heartwarming, and even though.
28:03
Speaker 1: Ethan admits he sometimes struggles to think of compliments, we
28:08
Speaker 1: will persevere. Now the stand has become a local hit.
28:11
Speaker 1: It's spreading joy to passerbys during the summer days. Ethan
28:14
Speaker 1: continues to encourage others with his kind words, saying, if
28:18
Speaker 1: you had that idea, I definitely would compliment you on
28:21
Speaker 1: that his thoughtful project is captured the attention and appreciation.
28:26
Speaker 2: Of many in his community. Way to go Ethan, You know,
28:29
Speaker 2: you never know.
28:30
Speaker 1: Sometimes one person just needs a nice thing said to
28:33
Speaker 1: him that day, and it might mean it might be
28:36
Speaker 1: this nine year old.
28:37
Speaker 3: That I mean, it's the sweetest thing on the planet,
28:40
Speaker 3: because you never know.
28:41
Speaker 4: How a compliment can you say somebody's.
28:44
Speaker 2: You never know.
28:45
Speaker 1: It's incredible, And a nine year old doing this throughout
28:48
Speaker 1: the summer, it's just such a wonderful thing to hear about.
28:51
Speaker 1: And the world's full of nice people. If you can't
28:53
Speaker 1: find one, you gotta be one. And I knew i'd
28:55
Speaker 1: get you to day, Angie.
28:56
Speaker 2: I knew it
