February twenty second. Tell us let's go back to the beginning. You guys
0:58
have been married sixty two years. How long were you together before you got
1:00
married? We met December fourth, nineteen fifty died. Okay, remember the
1:04
day even? Wow? Well it was at a Christmas party for a darter
1:08
of king of the company down in Minneapolis. Is it where you were working?
1:12
No? I but I had worked there three different winners and a friend
1:15
of mine and that I should come to the party because they's a good look
1:19
at girls. Oh right, so you were a plus one just scoping out
1:25
the ladies. Huh yeah, and somebody caught your eye. Well I was
1:30
supposed to be one lady one yell there, but she didn't show up.
1:33
So, oh no, I got stood up. Well he didn't. Oh
1:40
she didn't. She didn't know I was supposed to be there. Oh so
1:44
you were kind of like at that time. I carried a bunch of insult
1:49
cards. Insult cards, you know, like you'll go down in history like
1:53
another gallon of water over n your falls. So these were cards. So
1:59
you can't sell people, So just in case you needed insult, somebody had
2:02
a start a conversation. I had to Joanne one. Oh wait, I
2:07
have no idea what it said. The night went well, you guys got
2:10
to know each other, and then from there it was true love. Or
2:13
wise it must have been from there. Although I have to laugh because the
2:19
first time he took me to meet his parents some time later, and I
2:23
don't know how much later. And I had a very sweet mother in law,
2:27
I have to say, because I read all these mother in law stories,
2:30
they get a bad wrap, don't. Mother said to me, you
2:32
know, she said, I couldn't remember your name, but I thought,
2:35
oh, well, I'll probably never see her again. Wayne. Were you
2:39
a ladies, ma'am? It sounds like it. I just brought girls home
2:44
to see mother. Oh, gotcha, just to kind of see what happened.
2:51
Do you remember your first date? Did you take her out shortly after
2:53
that after meeting her at the company party? Actually, our first date got
2:59
cancers? Oh man? Why was the first aid canceled? I had gone
3:04
out the night before with someone else, another man, well, I think
3:09
he was he married my girlfriend eventually, oh my god. And we had
3:16
gone to a couple of bars, and they served food at some of them,
3:20
and I know I didn't have much to drink, because I know when
3:23
I've hid too much. Of course you do, yes. The next morning
3:25
I got up and I was so sick that I threw up and the little
3:30
blood vessels around my eyes broke. Oh no, And I was supposed to
3:34
be going out with him that night to South Haven to a bar that was
3:38
celebrating Christmas. So I had to call in to work because there was no
3:43
way I could go in looking bloodshot eyes. Yeah, she was the front
3:49
dust coal. So then that got canceled and then you guys went on another
3:53
day. Well, then he came over that evening with flowers. Oh Wayne,
3:58
what a man that was. During my Roses period, I would buying
4:02
big roseman. Would you have an account? So I talk about fast forward?
4:10
How long I tell you guys would get engaged about a year? Okay,
4:13
so fairly quickly. Because we were riding in the car one evening going
4:18
someplace and he slipped a ring on my finger. It was a band off
4:24
of a cigar. Okay, hang on, I'm going to need a further
4:28
explanation on this. Who was driving? He was wow, multitasker. And
4:33
then you decided you were going to propose in the car. Well, it's
4:36
part of the thing. Was my Merlin and I bought this engagement ring and
4:41
I hadn't talked to Joanne yet, and it tells everybody everything. I bet
4:46
get to her first. He was going to give me the ring for Christmas,
4:51
okay, but people were finding out, so you wanted to Well,
4:55
he was scared Myrtle would tell everybody Myrtle famous loose lips, Myrtle. Right.
5:01
Okay, so you used the cigar wrapper. The band it not a
5:08
big cigar girl. I apologize Joan, your your reaction to the cigar band,
5:12
not the ring you were imagining. Probably, I don't know if I
5:15
was even imagining a ring. Okay, he hadn't officially proposed, but I
5:18
mean we kind of spent a lot of time together. He's kind of assumed.
5:24
Yeah. I lived in three other girls, and I think they began
5:28
to think he was just a permanent fixture there because he'd be sitting on the
5:31
couch or whatever, make it himself at home. And I remember one night
5:35
one of my roommates had a date and she was practicing walking through the living
5:40
room and he's sitting there taking it all. Did she have a hard time
5:46
walking? Was trying to get her wiggled right? You know, Wayne,
5:51
It's really a lost start, isn't it. I can't remember the last time
5:55
I practiced giving my wiggle down while walking Joanne. We might to practice that.
6:00
My wife just walks on the straight line. It's really boring. The
6:05
lady's really had it going on back then. Oh gosh, you say so
6:09
much. I think the musta thought he was just permanent. Yeah, is
6:13
he paying rent? Wayne House? How soon until you had your own toothbrush
6:16
over at the four lex? You know you never did it because then you
6:20
know it's serious. Yeah, well, you guys, We want to talk
6:25
with you guys a lot more. Obviously, we're gonna get to know.
6:27
I want to hear the wedding story. I want to hear it. And
6:29
then, my god, there's been sixty two years sentence. We got a
6:30
lot to cover. But I think since we got here, we should open
6:33
it up. People have questions for Joanne and Wayne or Golden Valentine's, we
6:36
should absolutely hear them. So seven one two eight oh one ninety eight seven
6:41
feel free to tax you can call us as well. I love it.
6:44
Thank you guys so much for coming in today, like a minute in the
6:46
morning, big ninety eight points seven, Amanda, we have finally the data
6:49
is in. I know you've been anxiously waiting for the data on the denied
6:54
license plates of twenty twenty three people attempting to get personalized plates. How did
6:59
you know that that's what I have been anticipating. Well, I mean,
7:02
I know in years past it's one of the most exciting moments for you.
7:05
I always just giggle when I see them. I appreciate them because you know,
7:09
if you're driving around, it's like, oh, that's that's a good
7:11
distraction, you know, something to look at. Half the time, I'm
7:14
like, I'm sorry, I don't get it. I know it's supposed to
7:16
mean something, but it's kind of like solving a riddle when I'm driving.
7:19
Yeah, which everyone's good. And then suddenly been sitting at the green light
7:23
for twenty seconds deep in thought. Somebody's laying worried about texting and driving.
7:28
It's Amanda trying to read a license plate while driving. Lady, stop it.
7:32
I'm trying to solve the puzzle. Oh, that's great. So these
7:35
were some of the ones that were denied. Somebody tried to get through a
7:38
license plate that said k I D N A p n Oh boy kidnapping,
7:44
napping. Yeah, that's not so where they going with, like the kid
7:46
is like there's a kid napping in the back, or kid on board.
7:51
There's a kid on board, please be quiet. That's what I would think.
7:56
Probably not like there's a there's a dozen kids. I'm been back here,
8:00
you know, like not to mention it. And I'm no criminal,
8:03
right, I don't. I don't think I would ever kidnap a child.
8:07
However, if you did, probably not what you want on your license plate.
8:09
No, and I'm assuming this isn't a big white man window list.
8:13
Man, what's like this next one? Somebody attempted to get this personalized license
8:18
plate. It was denied on math. Oh, two words on meth because
8:24
seven letters six, I thought, oh, and then the the one is
8:30
six three the space count so you can use that space. Got it on
8:35
space? Myth. They're probably South Dakota plates because remember they had that big
8:37
campaign. What it was it again, we're on meth, as simple as
8:41
that. Yeah, or we're on math meth, we're on it. Yeah,
8:45
those rascals did it work out for him? But do we see the
8:46
numbers go down for the meth usage in South Dakota? You know, I'm
8:50
not sure. I haven't done the data on that, but I will I'll
8:52
get back to you. I I'm so worried about about the license plate data.
8:56
Sure, sure, well this one, mister du was denied. You
9:01
think of anything they would have let that one through, you know, just
9:05
to sort of tip police off that, hey, this guy might be above
9:09
a point oh eight. We can't say for sure. What they should do
9:11
is if you've had them, put it on the back like DUI, that
9:15
should be your first and then the number that you've had. That's a good
9:18
idea, you know, don't you have to You have to get what do
9:22
they call those plates that people who have had multiple DUIs have to get whiskey
9:26
plates. It's like a specific kind of license plate. That's essentially. It
9:28
might as well say, mister Dui, it's as fireball, I get Amanda
9:33
in the morning. Seven. Well, today's RANTI big ninety of points seven.
9:37

people on our Facebook page. And if you want to call seven one two
11:13
eight o one ninety eight seven. And you have a question for our golden
11:16
Valentine's Wayne and Joanne. But what advice would you guys give to married people
11:20
today? You know, whenever you come to a rough spot, you just
11:24
got to work your way through it. Yeah, there's no easy out,
11:26
you just got to do it. You guys had some rough patches or has
11:28
it all been just oh yeah, fairy to Every once in a while you
11:33
have something comes up. If you're working on this lasted for sixty two years.
11:39
A big thing is you still have to talk to each other. I
11:43
learned that before we got freed. Is that right? Yeah? He said
11:46
something and it offended me terribly, so I wouldn't talk. So he took
11:50
me home and dumped me off. What'd you say, Wayne, You remember
11:52
when I offended her somehow. I don't I don't know. But as long
11:56
as she wasn't going to talk, I wasn't going to have her with you.
12:01
So then who ended up coming back around? Did you Joe Anne break
12:03
and you're like, no, I'm going to talk to you. I don't
12:07
know. I apparently phones still worked. We didn't have cell phones, but
12:11
yeah, I was gonna say, how hard was it to communicate? No?
12:13
I mean you had to get him when they were at home. And
12:15
did you go days without talking to each other? No? No? And
12:18
did you have one of those phones that you had to do the rotary phone?
12:20
Rotary phone? Yeah? Yeah? And now you guys got cell phones?
12:24
Or oh yes, you're real fashionable, are you? You guys text?
12:26
Yes? I love it? You have any apps on your phone?
12:30
You play games on your phone or anything? I waste too much time on
12:33
Facebook. I can't start playing I Pike, do not tell him about the
12:37
blackjat games that he can get. Another question, this one's from Kelly.
12:39
She wants to know what projects are you guys not able to do together because
12:43
you're going to argue or fight. Well, he's more than mechanic, so
12:48
sometimes he'll tell me to fix something, and I will tell him that's not
12:52
my job for sure. Yeah, we used to golf, but he's still
12:56
bowls. Whoa, Wayne's still a bowler bollet at eight Tuesday night and Wednesday
13:03
or Friday after one of the original members of the team. He's just ninety
13:07
three years old, really, he asks the doctor. He says, well,
13:11
I still like to go bowling. You suppose I should keep that up
13:15
or sure quit? His doctor says, I think you better keep bowling.
13:18
I think that's what's keep me alive. Yeah, Kyle wants to know what's
13:22
one thing that annoys you about your partner? But you just kind of let
13:26
it slide, never getting a straight answer. What kind of answer has he
13:31
given you? It's always I have to share this real quick. When we
13:35
were first married, I worked for an engineering company, and after our son,
13:37
David was born, they needed me to come in and help out for
13:41
a couple of weeks. So at that time I was nursing our new baby.
13:46
And so when I came home from work, I was ready to feed
13:50
my baby. I couldn't find him, your baby. I couldn't find my
13:56
baby. Boy had we had a footstool and cover opened up and he had
14:03
hid the baby in there, Wayne, Wayne, you hid the baby?
14:11
Was the was the baby sleeping or it wasn't? Yeah, it was right,
14:18
got it? Okay? So how long did it take you to find
14:20
your baby in the ottoman? I can't remember, but I was a little
14:26
heeled. Oh my gosh, so Wayne, you're quite the prankster. Well
14:31
a little bit. You guys, thank you so much for hanging out.
14:33
And if you don't mind, we're going to have a couple more questions for
14:35
you coming, if that's okay. We got anywhere to be today? Right
14:39
here is right here? All right? They just penciled us in in the
14:43
morning, and now Amanda stills, let's seat. Let's see. Well,
14:48
after headlighting in the Super Bowl, he went right to Vegas weddings. Can
14:52
you believe this usher got married right after his performance? I guess his mom
14:56
served as as witness. They obtained their marriage license, and I assumed that
15:00
it was going to happen while they were in Vegas, but just right after
15:03
that performance, all sweaty. Do you think he showered beforehand? No?
15:05
I think she probably preferred that he didn't. So I know women love the
15:11
natural scent of a man, so great him and Jennifer I guess have been
15:13
together since twenty nineteen. They've got a couple of kids, but super cutes
15:18
always bad one and plenty of people were talking about Usher and Alicia Keys on
15:22
stage, and Alicia Keys man Swizz Beats, jumped on Instagram yesterday and said,
15:26
y'all are talking about the wrong damn thing. Y'all don't see the amazing
15:30
dress covering the entire stadium. Tonight's performance was nothing but amazing with two amazing
15:35
giants. Congrats at Usher and my We love Alicia Keys. That song is
15:39
classic. We don't do negative vibes on this side. We make history.
15:43
We go see giants. I'm thinking, why are we talking giants here?
15:48
Did a little research giants. Art of the Dean Collection of Swizz Beats and
15:52
Alicia Keys just opened, so if you want to go see this gallery in
15:54
the Brooklyn Museum. That's a weird way to promote that. And that's his
15:58
wife. Yes, you nailed it though. Yesterday when you were talking about
16:02
Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga that performance, we all thought for sure like there
16:07
was something something going on. Yeah, they were doing but they were acting,
16:10
but at the same time, they're still humans. We could all tell
16:11
there was a little more than just acting. I'm going to be honest with
16:15
you. You know, I'm happily married. If usher is like coming around
16:18
and like holding my waist like that, I'm gonna be like, uh uh,
16:23
this is weird. Please stop touching me. But hey, if your
16:26
husband Nick had an art gallery, correct, then you would be willing to
16:30
do it. If he was howking some no Dak merchee go see no Dak
16:37
Kanye West. He aired a thirty second commercial I guess, and I'm going,
16:41
how did we miss this? I feel like we would have been talking
16:42
about it. Well, it was in certain markets for some reason to pick
16:45
up the Fargo March Target Fargo. He did not, but just that one
16:49
ad because he didn't have to probably spend the seven million dollars because he didn't
16:52
run everywhere. But he sold nineteen million dollars worth of merchandise at easy dot
16:57
Com. So as much as we say here and go, this guy,
17:00
in my opinion, lunatic off the rails all of these things. People are
17:04
still following him like crazy. It's one of those things to be it.
17:07
If he hasn't lost him yet, he's not going to yeah, go true.
17:10
And you know, my biggest concern has been over his wife and she
17:14
was wearing kind of this think of a tortilla chip, kind of like a
17:17
thong outfit where she was barely covered yesterday and he posted this video three different
17:22
times, and people are trolling him in the comments like what are you doing?
17:26
And this is what he said. I just want to tell everybody I
17:27
posted my wife three times on purpose. So what I'm saying is I delivered
17:34
the album. Then people still in my comments, I'm out, why are
17:37
you posting a why? Cause she make me happy? That's why y'all happy
17:41
with the music, because I'm happy. You understand. So don't never say
17:45
nothing negative. If you don't like my page and don't like what I'm posting,
17:49
go for yourself, seriously leave me lead a king? Who am I
17:55
crazy for sort of sympathizing with him here? You know, if my man
17:59
is truly happy and he doesn't have his wife under a spell like ja'far like
18:03
you're sort of thinking that's so what I'm feeling, they'll let him do it.
18:07
You think he gave her the old snake eyed shaft, like I don't
18:10
know, there's something going on there, and it's very unsettling for me.
18:14
Romana in the morning on seven, like, isn't this the best day?
18:19
Well, it's just so romantic, That's what I love it. We have
18:22
our Golden Valentine's in the studio. We've been talking about it for the last
18:25
couple of weeks and the nominees were Joanne and Wayne sixty two years married and
18:29
Wayne. A lot of people have been commenting on your voice saying that you
18:32
should have been in radio. Were you in radio? And dude, no,
18:34
no, no, no, have you heard that before? That you
18:37

18:47

18:52

20:33
it, and I also like the Statler Brothers. She the whole crew.
20:37
Huh hey the northern area. Okay, So the next question in our newlywed
20:47
game with our golden valentines Wayne and Joanne, what physical quality? Yeah,
20:52
does your partner find the most attractive about you? Joanne? What would you
20:56
say your favorite physical quality about Wayne is he's still be good looking? He
21:02
still got it pretty pretty much. He thought your answer would be general hair
21:06
and good looks. Well, I was kind of close you were. Yeah?
21:10
Yeah, yeah, that really nice had of hair ony Wayne still.
21:11
So now this is interesting because the next question on our newlywed game here is
21:17
what's your partner's pet name? For you? And Wayne? You didn't have
21:21
an answer? Can you think of a Does Joanne have a pet name for
21:23
you? Joann? And you can help you too, sweet little nickname?
21:26
I broke down his pet name for me. It is either Joanne or Joel.
21:30
Oh, Joe's cute? That is cute? Is your middle name?
21:33
No? Joe Ane short for Joannee, was that the dumbest question you ever
21:38
heard? In eighty four years? Have you ever heard a dumber thing?
21:44
Will you ever call her like honey or sugar? Pomes any that I remember?
21:49
Not even like Morten, babe. No. Last question on a new
21:55
Lego game was what is your partner's dream date? Joanne? What would you
21:59
say that would your dream date be Joanne going out for a nice dinner?
22:03
Nice dinner? Well, Wayne said lobster dinner. Did he nail it?
22:06
I think that's pretty cool, nic Oh my goodness. And Wayne, why
22:11
would your dream date be? Well? I also like lobster, but whatever,
22:15
that's part of it. Because she said, Joanne, your perfect date
22:18
would be going to the casino, playing blackjack and having a nice dinner.
22:22
Okay, yes, that sounds all right. I do have a Platinum player
22:27
at Last Casino Platinum V I p rolling in here. Oh my goodness.
22:36
Has it ever been a problem your gambling? When I run out of money,
22:42
then you just headed that machine right and just automatically gives it to you.
22:45
Sometimes I have to quit. Okay, there's a limit, you know.
22:51
People always tell me that the ATM is the one game you never lose.
22:53
That, but I've lost that it many times. Many times it tells
22:57
me, you know, actually, sir, you don't have any money to
23:00
take out. You guys are amazing. Well, we're gonna take a break
23:03
here. We're actually tomorrow. If you guys are okay, then we're gonna
23:06
have you come back and we're gonna renew your vows. How does that sounds
23:10
great? Oh my gosh, and that ring And I mean, have you
23:14
guys done any preparation for the vows or are you guys just gonna speak from
23:17
the heart. We thought we'd try to wing it. That's our style kind
23:21
of what we've been doing here the same. Basically, this whole program is
23:23
a wing it. Thanks for listening, appreciate it. Trending new. Here's
23:29
what you need to know. Well, it's good and bad news. The
23:32
good news is the weather's been fantastic. The badness the Fargo Parts District did
23:36
have to announce it all outdoor skating rinks, with the exception of the Shield
23:38
skating rink at Broadway Square, going to remain closed for this season. Ideally,
23:42
they need like seven to ten consecutive days with temperatures colder than ten degrees
23:47
in order to have the safe ice surface. That's brutal if you're a big
23:51
figure skater, not to mention, you know, even like a if you
23:53
snowmobile, like have you even got it out? No? I obviously not.
23:56
But ice fishing, I've no people are doing that they which is crazy
24:00
to me. By the hey, a lot of people aren't using like their
24:03
ice castles right now. But it's so weird. It's like we're all just
24:07
on edge, just waiting for the shoe to drop. And we still have
24:10
plenty of time, trust me. There we know we got a good two
24:11
months here. We got to get through before you we can say we made
24:14
it through unscathed. But then it will be pool season. And I'm looking
24:18
at that Island Park pool down there. Are they gonna have that done this
24:19
year? Either? It's crazy, like the amount of shot. I was
24:23
feeling like this project was going to be a little bit longer than a year,
24:26
but I could be wrong either way. I mean, they got a
24:30
pool in there, They just got to put a hose in there and fill
24:32
it out. Oh is that it? That's all I gotta do with?
24:36
And this Super Bowl Sunday, I guess was recognized as the most watched program
24:40
in television history one and twenty three point four million viewers. The audience was
24:45
so large that it approached the all time most watched television program, which was
24:48
back in nineteen sixty nine when Apollo eleven had The Moon Landing. That was
24:53
a heck of a program. I mean, that's crazy. How much were
24:56
they selling ads for then? I wonder? I think it was just black
25:00
and white and it just was there. That's crazy. It's crazy how football
25:03
how much bigger it is than everything else, especially sports. Like if you
25:07
look at the ratings of the NBA Championship, which is the next most popular
25:11
sport, compared to just a normal like Week two NFL game on Sunday,
25:15
it's not even close. It's crazy. Yeah, we did a little research
25:18
yesterday because we were talking about it. We're like, first of all,
25:21
the price of the Super Bowl adds all of it. We're like, why
25:23
do they not do it on Saturday? That is a conversation that so many
25:26
people have had. I guess there's like an act that they signed back in
25:30
like nineteen sixty one that said, because of college and high school sports,
25:33
they will not have an NFL game on a Saturday, which is not true
25:37
because they've had NFL games at Saturday. But they say it's just optimal for
25:40
a viewership, which I don't have the numbers on that see, and I
25:42
would totally disagree on that. Everything traces back to money. They feel like
25:47
they can just make the most money. They don't care that for us,
25:48
it'd be better to be able to have some few drinks and sleep in on
25:52
Sunday. They don't care about that. I just feel like the economy just
25:55
in general would be bigger if it was on a Saturday. Yeah, they
25:57
all figured out. I sure, I dare send an email to Roger Goodell
26:00
a the NFL. Mister Goodell, listen, you got a minute here,
26:03
I did some thinking. Okay, brunch the numbers. You're gonna love me
26:08
for this. You want to see the ROI on this bad point. All
26:12
right? Today, of course is Gallentine's Day. If you didn't know that,
26:15
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. So the day before as I was Gallentine's Day.
26:18
It's today for the Gallas to get together and celebrate. Now it's not
26:22
like Singles Awareness Day. It's not we're hating on the men. It's just
26:25
like, hey, get together, with your girls, have a little fun
26:27
and enjoy and if you can't do it today, join us tomorrow for whinos
26:30
women in Nita sanity. We're gonna do like a Valentine's Day slash Gallantine's Day
26:34
over at the grotto tomorrow from four until six. When's my Boysentine's Day?
26:40
Boy boy? Or is that every other day of the year? It is?
26:44
Yeah, you boys get all the times every day, like get a
26:47
minute in the morning. Come on, get up on dig eighty eight.
26:52
Is this genius or no? On? Behalf of this working mom, amana.
26:55
You've had babysitters for your two young kids, of course, yeah,
26:57
Well this mom she had her son get a babysitter, so she leaves for
27:03
the babysitter a chore list and at first I'm thinking, okay, no,
27:07
that's not fat job, that's a no. However, the chore list was
27:11
optional, so she made it clear for the babysitter the Hey, if you
27:14
want to make a few extra bucks, here's a list of things I need
27:17
done because I'm a busy working mom, and if you want to complete them,
27:19
I'll pay you up to ten extra dollars. It was a pretty lengthy
27:23
list of head the extra dollars and that's where do I sign up? Not
27:29
No, I'm just kidding. I'm kidding, Okay, hit me with it.
27:32
That was basically, yeah, you know, things like cleaning glass,
27:33
merrors, vacuuming the couch, scrubbing the inside of the fridge, all priced
27:37
between three and ten dollars. So you do we know the age of the
27:41
kid that's being babysat? Roughly? I mean, is it an infit that's
27:45
just like going to be sleeping the whole time, or is this a toddler
27:48
who's running around? Because I don't I'd really want you to focus on my
27:52
kid versus my mirrors. Well, right, yeah, you kids kind of
27:55
you you know you got your head in the refrigerator. No, I don't
27:56
know the age of the kid. It doesn't say yeah great if you you
28:00
know, can find somebody who's going to clean your house and do that for
28:03
ten dollars. But no, your focus if you are babysitting and my family
28:07
is to keep my kids entertained, spend time with them. Your goal should
28:11
be they don't want mom and dad to be home because they're having so much
28:14
fun with you. Is that what you tell your babysitters kind of the vibe
28:18
we give. Yeah, you have a training program for we do. Yeah.
28:21
Usually it's hey, just so you know, there's the pizza, and
28:26
then there's all the whatever you want and this and this and this is where
28:29
everything is, and here's the debit card if something were to happen, and
28:32
the keys. Otherwise, Yeah, we'll be back in a few hours.
28:36
And then usually it's we text them, is it okay for a little late?
28:41
And then another one we're on our way, but it's like we're really
28:44
not on our way. And I'm just kidding. We'll get you rask.
28:45
I'm just kidding. What do you look for in a babysitter? Anybody with
28:48
a pulse? No, we is ready, not fresh out of prison.
28:52
We've got about five on a lineup. Oh yeah, give or take.
28:56
Y'all do a good job, totally. Yeah, we've never had a bad
28:59
one. Aren't you excited for the age where your kids, instead of having
29:02
to have your babysit or do the chores, your kids can just complete all
29:04
the tasks. Our kids help already, like they the dish, they put
29:08
their clothes in the Washington nine. Don't you have to supervise so much that
29:12
you might as well just do it yourself. I can't. You're trying to
29:15
teach them and every ding you got it? Yeah, No, for sure,
29:17
like the day that I can just be like you get to do the
29:19
dishes because that dishwasher is running every day. Sure, you know the day
29:23
you can just leave go to happy hour and say, hey, Briggs,
29:26
mow the lawn. That driveway better be shoveled by the time I get home.
29:30
And that makes me sad. I'm not ready for that life. Oh
29:33
just because they're old, yes, but you're not ready to come home to
29:36
a shovel driveway. No, not that you're doing much shoveling. Yeah,
29:40
like a minute in the morning, big naty eight points seven? When should
29:42
you be throwing stuff away? And this is a good reminder for me mostly,
29:45
but I'm going to say it out loud because you know I have a
29:48
hard time throwing things away, especially when it comes to what it is the
29:51
household items. Okay, we'll start, and these are like according to experts
29:53
on how long things last until you should be throwing them away? Okay,
29:56
like bed sheets, what would you guess, first of all, how long
30:00
you had those sheets on that bed bed sheets. It's funny we have a
30:03
fresh batch that we have not used because I mean, we wash our bedding
30:07
at least once a week. But I don't want to open their fresh white
30:11
sheets quite yet because I'm waiting for us to get out of like the stage
30:15
where our kids aren't snacking in our bed sneaking in and then it's like accidents
30:18
like all of that kind of stuff. Well, the experts say two years
30:22
is about the lifespan of bed sheets. Well, I feel like we've probably
30:26
been using ours five. Speaking a color of bed sheets, what would you
30:30
say the optimal color for bed sheets is? I would go maybe gray,
30:34
like like a gray beige kind of color would be good. But I love
30:38
the like hotel white bed set. Yeah, we've got white bed white something.
30:42
I like. I saw you sleep better, You just feel clean,
30:45
feel comfy. But then do you ever go to a hotel and then you
30:48
wake up the next day, because typically if you're in a hotel, you're
30:51
not washing your face the night before or anything. So as a lady,
30:53
I feel bad because I'm looking at the bed as I'm leaving, like,
30:57
oh gosh. Or if you order a big and it's just a disaster.
31:02
I feel horrible. Oh yeah, like I'll have pizza and bad and with
31:04
white bed sheets. No, yes, like the chances of it getting dirty
31:07
are pretty good. We got a white the blanket part of it, it's
31:10
white, and let me tell you, the top of it, where like
31:11
our heads are at, it is no longer white. It's really gross.
31:15
Towels. How long should you have a towel? When they say three years
31:18
is a good run for a towel? Wow? How often to you even
31:22
wash the towel you got hanging up for your shower or whatever. Use it
31:25
after too, and then wash it too. Yeah, that's so excessive.
31:29
You're clean when you use it, but you're still getting off like a dead
31:33
set. I feel like skin cell. I got a weird thing about this,
31:36
like mythical skin cell phenomenon. I don't know. I just feel when's
31:40
the last time you saw a skin cell? I don't know. I just
31:41
feel like it's gross. And after you hang them up, they smell after
31:45
a little bit, just because they're dry. I'm going on probably a month.
31:49
Oh, you're such a lie, kidding, Probably a month since I've
31:52
swapped out the shower towel. Does it smell not according to my nose.
31:56
Gross No way should come over and take a snip. No thanks, be
32:00
able to do a little experiment T shirts. Let's get on into the clothing.
32:04
Two years they say T shirts will last, which is obviously fiction because
32:07
I'm still wearing shirts from you know, college, A college. I mean
32:10
I probably have Woodina Deercreek Rhythm met T shirts that are in a I have
32:15
like a box of certain things, you know what I mean, Yeah,
32:16
like old school T shirts when we launched our radio station. I still have
32:21
the like big ninety eight point seven I'm kind of a big deal T shirt
32:23
that was. We're coming up on almost eleven years with that bad Boy.
32:28
Well, if you're still wearing high school shirts, props to you, because
32:30
I'm afraid I no longer fitted into the shirts I was wearing when I weigh
32:32
one hundred and thirty five pounds. I think I've just been an ongoing x
32:37
L since freshman year. I remember when I made the jump from small to
32:42
medium. I'm like, ooh, brutal old boy. Now occasionally it's like,
32:44
wow, large, It's just a little comfier, don't not fun?
32:49
Oh so good underwear. Every six months or so, they say oh gosh,
32:52
and that's like for bras anything like that, like until the wires coming
32:57
out and it's just like, Okay, it's not doing its job. We're
33:00
not supportive anymore. Then I'm going to need to golf
