Speaker 1:
[00:07] Wow, what a great voice. Just really, that's impressive. Demi Lovato, more tickets tomorrow morning here on KDWB. I'm gonna talk like this the rest of the morning.
Speaker 2:
[00:16] Please do, actually.
Speaker 1:
[00:17] Or don't talk at all. Or don't talk at all, there's an option also.
Speaker 3:
[00:20] I don't like that, it's too sunny and gorgeous out today. I need more energy.
Speaker 1:
[00:23] You could do some mime. I'm gonna sound like a DJ.
Speaker 3:
[00:25] No, I don't want that either.
Speaker 1:
[00:26] Good morning.
Speaker 2:
[00:27] Mime everything. Mime? Do mime.
Speaker 1:
[00:30] Mime.
Speaker 2:
[00:31] Go ahead.
Speaker 3:
[00:31] Really, we're on radio.
Speaker 2:
[00:33] I'll explain what he's doing.
Speaker 1:
[00:34] No, I'm not gonna do that.
Speaker 2:
[00:34] Are you sure?
Speaker 1:
[00:35] No, I'm certain I'm gonna do it. I'm not gonna do that. We were talking, I was talking to a friend of mine the other day, and he was calling his hometown Crapids. Crapids. Coon Rapids. Crapids. Yeah, Crapids. Crapids. And it made me think, well, what, and I call Chanhassen Chanhappening. So what is the nickname for your city? Either good or cute or bad, like Mound, Mound, Mound Tucky. You ever been there? We looked at a house in Mound Tucky, and the house over here that we were looking at was quite nice, but across the street was a toothless woman sitting on an upside down five gallon bucket, smoking a cigarette.
Speaker 4:
[01:15] Was her name Clural?
Speaker 1:
[01:16] No, that's a guy's name. So, but I was like, okay, Mound Tucky, here we go. If you live in Mound, you probably live in the nice part, but there's Mound Tucky also.
Speaker 3:
[01:26] Can I tell you what my hometown is?
Speaker 1:
[01:27] Yeah.
Speaker 3:
[01:28] So, I'm from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, and growing up, we always called it Fond du Massac.
Speaker 1:
[01:33] Fond du Massac?
Speaker 2:
[01:34] It is Louise.
Speaker 1:
[01:35] There's a bunch of these on the Dave Ryan in the Morning Show Facebook page, and what you live in Robbinsdale.
Speaker 4:
[01:43] I live in Robbinsdale. They call it Birdtown, which Bailey had the same question. Why Birdtown? Because of Robin. I didn't know that either.
Speaker 2:
[01:50] It doesn't make sense to me though, because a Robin is one B and Robbinsdale is two Bs. So, no, that doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1:
[01:56] But still, it's a Robin. Don't try to overthink it. It's Birdtown.
Speaker 2:
[02:00] I'm from Andover, and in high school, we were always at odds with Anoka, so we would call ourselves the real A-town, even though Anoka was the real A-town, it was there first. So, the real A-town is what we call it.
Speaker 1:
[02:14] Alexis Warren texted that too, Andover the real A-town. Oakdale says, Danny is Jokedale. Never heard that one before. Tammy grew up in Sioux City. Sewer City is what they called it. White Bear Lake, we like to refer it as White Boy Lake. New Hope, guess what the nickname is for New Hope?
Speaker 3:
[02:37] New Pope. No.
Speaker 1:
[02:39] No Hope. But they say it's actually a pretty cool place to live.
Speaker 2:
[02:42] I really like New Hope.
Speaker 4:
[02:43] Yeah, there's a nice ice cream spot out there.
Speaker 2:
[02:45] Yeah.
Speaker 1:
[02:45] Holly's all the way in Inglewood, Florida. They don't call it Inglewood, they call it Wrinklewood.
Speaker 2:
[02:50] Wrinklewood.
Speaker 1:
[02:51] Because the median age is 68. Shockopy, Shocktown.
Speaker 2:
[02:55] Shocktown, nice.
Speaker 1:
[02:58] Ellsworth, Cheese Curd Capital. Mason City, they call it Mason Blankie. Rhymesworth City.
Speaker 2:
[03:09] Yeah, the ones that we're getting on text are all kind of along the same lines, where like Oakdale is Cokedale.
Speaker 1:
[03:16] Oh, Cottage Grove. Garbage Grove.
Speaker 2:
[03:20] Garbage Grove.
Speaker 1:
[03:20] These are just mean. Fridley gets a nice one. What are they?
Speaker 2:
[03:24] Friendly Fridley.
Speaker 1:
[03:25] Friendly Fridley. That's an actual one.
Speaker 4:
[03:28] Instead of Chaska, they say Trashka.
Speaker 2:
[03:30] Trashka.
Speaker 1:
[03:31] Oh, poor Chaska. Chaska's nice. Another one, Farmington. Guess what? Farmtown.
Speaker 2:
[03:37] Farmtown. That makes sense. Easy one. That sounds easy. Yeah, Roberts, Wisconsin. Someone texted in, it's called Bobtown. I would love to live in Bobtown.
Speaker 1:
[03:43] I think that's cute.
Speaker 2:
[03:44] That's a cute thing.
Speaker 1:
[03:46] Mankato, they call it Kato. Well, that's just kind of like a, that's a cute little nickname.
Speaker 2:
[03:49] Yeah, same with like Forest Lake is Flake. A lot of people are saying Flake. Yeah, makes sense.
Speaker 1:
[03:54] There's a lot that we can't say. Yeah.
Speaker 2:
[03:57] Oh, no, some of these are so...
Speaker 1:
[04:00] What?
Speaker 2:
[04:01] I just don't know what I'm allowed to say.
Speaker 1:
[04:02] Well, don't say it then.
Speaker 2:
[04:04] Okay.
Speaker 1:
[04:05] Atlanta, Nina lives in Atlanta. She said, they call it the big peach. I call it the blank hole. Oh, I haven't been to Atlanta lately. I don't know. What about you? What is the nickname of your city? Text at KDWB153921. Burnsville, burn it down. Oh. Maplewood is Maple Hood.
Speaker 2:
[04:29] Yeah, a lot of hoods.
Speaker 1:
[04:30] Woodbury is Hoodberry.
Speaker 4:
[04:32] Really?
Speaker 1:
[04:33] Yeah, Hoodberry.
Speaker 2:
[04:34] But like, what about Woodbury is Hoodie? I know nothing.
Speaker 1:
[04:38] No nothing. It's a very nice town.
Speaker 2:
[04:40] Yeah.
Speaker 1:
[04:41] Ramsey, also known as Ramtucky. New Richmond is the dirty NR. Okay. Marco Island. A lot of people listen to our show in Florida. Wow. Geriatric Island.
Speaker 2:
[04:53] Geriatric Island.
Speaker 1:
[04:56] Norwood, Young America. Horwood. Now, that's not nice.
Speaker 4:
[04:59] I want to live there.
Speaker 2:
[05:00] Or Zimbroda? Scumbroda?
Speaker 1:
[05:03] Scumbroda. That's not nice. No, it's not nice. Fergus Falls. Fungus Flats. Okay.
Speaker 2:
[05:11] Oh, Dundas.
Speaker 5:
[05:12] Shout out Dundas.
Speaker 4:
[05:13] I want to know.
Speaker 5:
[05:13] Fundas.
Speaker 4:
[05:14] Are people call it like, are masses of people calling these things? Is this what you say? You know, Birdtown is what a lot of people call Robinsdale, or is this something you just made up in your house?
Speaker 2:
[05:22] Well, these are like funnier, like Birdtown, like they'll call that, you know, at city council meetings.
Speaker 4:
[05:26] Somebody said Apple Valley. They call it Awful Valley.
Speaker 1:
[05:29] But Apple Valley is beautiful.
Speaker 4:
[05:30] That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:
[05:31] Apple Valley. It's a beautiful little town. Yeah. Northfield. I call it Cornfield. Okay. I like that one. Minneapolis. We've heard Murder Apples for years. I mean, since when I first moved here, they called it because we had too many murders in 1993, so they got the nickname Murder Apples. Hastings is Wasting. Wasika. What do you think Wasika is? Wasuka. Rice Lake. Rice Vegas. I don't think there's anything Vegas-y about Rice Lake at all.
Speaker 3:
[06:06] I've never been there. That's Wisconsin?
Speaker 1:
[06:09] Yeah.
Speaker 3:
[06:09] Yep.
Speaker 2:
[06:10] Oh, see, this one's cute. I'm from Cumberland, Wisconsin, and people that aren't from Cumberland call it Cucumberland.
Speaker 1:
[06:17] Okay, that's just cute.
Speaker 2:
[06:17] And that's cute.
Speaker 1:
[06:18] I've heard this one. This is adorable. Ham Lake. What do they call Ham Lake?
Speaker 2:
[06:22] Pig City.
Speaker 1:
[06:23] No, Pork Pond.
Speaker 4:
[06:24] Oh, somebody did call and say that.
Speaker 2:
[06:26] That one's cute, actually. I like that one.
Speaker 1:
[06:29] Le Seuwer. The Seuer.
Speaker 2:
[06:31] Well, duh. That one's honestly on a platter. That one's kind of easy.
Speaker 1:
[06:35] It kind of is, yeah. Ice Anty, sometimes known as Ice Sanity.
Speaker 2:
[06:41] OK, Champlain. Chump Town. Since when?
Speaker 1:
[06:46] Big Lake. AKA Big Mistake. Big Lake is a nice town. A lot of these towns are nice. They just come up with a funny nickname for him.
Speaker 3:
[06:55] Vaughn, what was your hometown?
Speaker 4:
[06:56] Uh, I live in Trenton. I don't know what we call Trenton. The Hood.
Speaker 5:
[07:02] That's it.
Speaker 4:
[07:03] Find any excuse to get out of there.
Speaker 2:
[07:04] Faribault. They call it Fart Bowl.
Speaker 1:
[07:07] Fart Bowl? Okay. If you got one, let me know.
Speaker 5:
[07:10] I like White Boy Lake the best.
Speaker 1:
[07:12] That is kind of funny, isn't it? Hanover is known as Hangover. Uh, Apple Valley. Happy Valley.
Speaker 2:
[07:21] There you go.
Speaker 1:
[07:21] That's a good one. St. Cloud. The Dirty Cloud.
Speaker 2:
[07:25] Eau Claire in Wisconsin is Ho-Claire.
Speaker 1:
[07:28] Menominee. Me no money. Minnetrista, where Fallon lives. Minnetrash-ta. We had a woman on the show one time who was making fun of Fallon for living in Minnetrista, and she coined the word, I thought, Minnetrash-ta.
Speaker 3:
[07:42] I think I feel like that was the first time I ever heard it.
Speaker 6:
[07:44] I'd never heard that.
Speaker 1:
[07:45] Minnetrista is nice. It's kind of like Mount Tucky, though. There's a couple of parts where you drive through, you're like, who? Roll them up, kids. Roll them up.
Speaker 3:
[07:52] All of those little cities out there blend together. I don't know what is what. Like, you live in Victoria now. I would probably think that that was Chanhassen. Aren't they next to each other?
Speaker 1:
[08:01] They're right next to each other. There's a farmer's field that separates the two of them.
Speaker 3:
[08:05] Classic Minnesota.
Speaker 1:
[08:06] Worthington, Worthlesston.
Speaker 4:
[08:10] This one's funny.
Speaker 1:
[08:11] What is it?
Speaker 2:
[08:11] I live in Gaylord. We call it Gaylord.
Speaker 1:
[08:17] I was driving through Gaylord one time, and I pulled over. There's a sign that says Gaylord when you pull into town. I took a picture, and I sent it to my friend Monica, and I said, hey, they put your name on a sign. Gaylord. All right, we'll be back in a second. If we missed one, let us know. Send me a text at KDWB153921. Vaunt going to stir the pot. Hang on. It's next on KDWB. Reduce, reuse, recycle, repair, and donate. It's Earth Day today. Yeah, it is. So, I mean, take your cans and your bottles down to the recycle center. What do you do with plastic bags? You know, you go to Target and get those plastic bags.
Speaker 2:
[09:00] Yeah, you can bring them back and recycle them there.
Speaker 1:
[09:02] But before you do, where do they go in your house?
Speaker 3:
[09:04] In the garbage can.
Speaker 4:
[09:05] No, the bottom drawer. So that way you can reuse them whenever you need. I don't know, to pick up dog poop or something.
Speaker 3:
[09:10] I mean, I use them as garbage can liners.
Speaker 1:
[09:12] I see what you mean. Yeah.
Speaker 3:
[09:12] Is what I meant.
Speaker 1:
[09:13] Okay, gotcha. Just like throw all the garbage in there. Sorry.
Speaker 3:
[09:16] I agree.
Speaker 1:
[09:17] Jenny also changes the oil in her camper van and dumps it down a storm drain.
Speaker 3:
[09:22] What are you supposed to do with it? Because where is it supposed to go?
Speaker 1:
[09:24] Down a storm drain.
Speaker 3:
[09:25] That's what I'm saying. So what else?
Speaker 1:
[09:30] Today is Earth Day. Reduce, reuse, recycle. When I am done with my Target bags or my Walmart bags, they go in another Walmart bag under the sink. What about you? You put yours in a drawer, you say?
Speaker 2:
[09:41] Mine's in a little cupboard underneath my sink as well. And my cat, if he can get the cupboard open, he likes to go and sit in all of them because it makes the little crinkly sounds and he's like, ooh. A bed. Yeah, he's just like, ooh.
Speaker 1:
[09:55] Yeah, that's adorable. Happy Earth Day. Let's now stir the pot. Not us, but Vaunt. What do you got?
Speaker 4:
[10:03] We need to learn to be more honest. We should be able to tell people that their cooking is not all that good, at least to us. There's such a stigma around like, oh, you should be grateful that they cooked for you. No, but I should still be able to be honest and be like, oh, this wasn't my cup of tea.
Speaker 1:
[10:15] You are crazy.
Speaker 3:
[10:17] Yes, you are.
Speaker 1:
[10:17] You've gone too far.
Speaker 4:
[10:19] How am I crazy for that?
Speaker 3:
[10:20] You just have to grit and spit it.
Speaker 4:
[10:22] Why? We always talk about, you should be honest. We ask people what they think about this show, which is a work of our art. Why not do the same thing with somebody's cooking?
Speaker 3:
[10:31] I will never forget. I was at a bachelor party two years ago, and one of the girls was doing all the cooking. There was like half the crew that was doing the work, half the crew that was just sitting around partying. Well, one person from the party crew comes up to the cooking crew and goes, who made this chicken? God, it looks bland as hell. Oh. And the other girl who had made it, or not the other girl that made it, one of the friends was like, that was rude as hell. She just sat and cooked for you, and you have the audacity to come up and say that.
Speaker 4:
[11:00] Okay.
Speaker 3:
[11:01] So that's why you don't say things like that.
Speaker 4:
[11:04] I think there's a way you say it. And I think your friend, whoever that was, said it, could have said it a bit nicer, but we get critiqued in every other avenue of our lives. Music, sports, work, but cooking is where we draw the line all of a sudden.
Speaker 1:
[11:16] Because you're doing something nice for somebody. They can't look a gift horse. I remember when I was a little kid, I went to my friend Scott's house, and they had cereal, and the milk was sour. And I sat there at eight years old, and I ate a bowl of raisin bran with sour milk, and I didn't say a word.
Speaker 4:
[11:33] At eight years old, I understand why. Maybe you don't want to say something, but when you become grown, no, I'm not. If this just doesn't please me, I should be able to say, you've gone too far.
Speaker 1:
[11:43] You've gone too far. Let's say I have you and Alyssa over on a Sunday morning and made egg bake. So I get the eggs and I got the sausage and it's delicious. I mean, I think it is. And you take a bite and you wrinkle up your nose and it's not good. Are you going to say something?
Speaker 4:
[11:57] Because society tells me not to? No, I'm not going to say anything. But I might get in the car later and be like, did you? Dave and Susan, that what is it?
Speaker 1:
[12:06] Egg bake.
Speaker 4:
[12:07] Egg bake? We're not going back to their house.
Speaker 2:
[12:08] And that's how it should be. Society tells you not to say anything, and we should follow societal rules sometimes.
Speaker 4:
[12:14] No, there are people walking around here for years thinking that they are Chef Boyardee, and really they need to put down the spatula.
Speaker 2:
[12:21] I just think, if you had Thanksgiving, and you went to your mom's, and she cooked you an entire Thanksgiving meal, and she's not necessarily the best cook, you're going to call out your mom and say this turkey is trash?
Speaker 4:
[12:33] I'll call my mom right now and tell her that she has never made a good pot of rice in my life.
Speaker 5:
[12:37] No, you will not.
Speaker 4:
[12:39] Go ahead.
Speaker 1:
[12:40] No, you won't. My mom was not a good cook. She did not like cooking. She would throw things together last minute before, like 10 minutes before dad got home. And you know what? You sat and you ate it, and you did not complain. Never once was like, God, mom, this is terrible.
Speaker 4:
[12:58] I'm not going to, like I said, I'm not going to sound ungrateful, but we should just be able to be honest.
Speaker 2:
[13:01] You do sound ungrateful.
Speaker 4:
[13:02] Oh my gosh. See, that's the problem. We have, my mom not answering. We should be able to, like I said, maybe in a nice way, just say, hey, I don't like this. It is your opinion. We rate restaurants. We tell, we leave reviews online about DoorDash.
Speaker 1:
[13:14] Because you're paying for it.
Speaker 4:
[13:15] Yeah.
Speaker 2:
[13:16] You're paying for it.
Speaker 4:
[13:17] I think we need to be honest. What a text message is saying. I want my husband to tell me if something's bad, but he says it nicely. It's like, you probably don't have to make this for a while. Noted. Somebody else at 53921. I agree with Vaunt. If we don't say anything, how are we supposed to improve on cooking? Exactly. I'm trying to give you a tip.
Speaker 2:
[13:34] Yeah. I think people can agree with you. Like, oh, I wish we could say something, but the second someone says something to you, it's going to hurt.
Speaker 4:
[13:41] Yeah, but at least I'll know that you're not a fan or know what I have to critique. Like, oh, this could use a little bit more seasoning.
Speaker 1:
[13:47] On the nights when Susan makes dinner and she'll try something new, she'll be like, do you like it? And if I like it, I'll be like, oh, I'll rave about it. Oh, this is so good. You got to make it again. But if I don't like it, she'll be like, how do you like it? I'll be like, you know, you don't have to make it again in your time soon. And usually she'll be like, yeah, I agree. And it's not an insult on her. It's an insult on, you know, whatever video she watched or whatever recipe she uses. It's like, nah, it's okay.
Speaker 2:
[14:11] Someone said, you're getting paid to make the show. People get paid to play sports. You don't get paid to provide food for your family and friends. So you shouldn't have to take-
Speaker 1:
[14:19] But I get what you're saying, Vont. You won't say anything, but you should be able to say something.
Speaker 4:
[14:24] I'm starting the movement right now for us to normalize it. If you have to go to East, what's coming up? A Memorial Day barbecue, and you don't like how your friend made the skewers or the hamburgers, you should be well within your right to be like, mm, not your best work, Susie.
Speaker 2:
[14:39] Someone texted in saying, my stepdad used to say, mm, that was good. Let's not make that again.
Speaker 1:
[14:46] This text says, at KDLDB1, my mom's a terrible cook. Her meat is always dry and overcooked. The only seasoning she uses is salt. I choke down what I can. I say, I'm not real hungry.
Speaker 4:
[14:58] So many problems. Why is there only salt? I'm sure your mom probably doesn't clean the meat before she cooks it. So many issues. You talk to your mom.
Speaker 2:
[15:05] It's okay.
Speaker 4:
[15:06] It's your mom.
Speaker 3:
[15:07] You're supposed to clean meat before you cook it?
Speaker 4:
[15:08] Jenny, please don't get me started. Please don't.
Speaker 2:
[15:11] How do you clean it? Do you just run it underwater?
Speaker 4:
[15:14] No. Well, I used to when I was younger, and then I learned the ways of the world, either with like vinegar or with lemon juice. Oh, I know.
Speaker 3:
[15:21] I genuinely don't clean meat, besides like some fish you're supposed to, yeah.
Speaker 4:
[15:25] And this is why I don't eat at Company Potlucks.
Speaker 3:
[15:27] Whatever.
Speaker 4:
[15:27] Because you just don't trust everybody.
Speaker 1:
[15:29] You just don't have a thumbnail in there.
Speaker 4:
[15:31] A thumbnail or dog hair or a mix of both.
Speaker 1:
[15:34] Or they take a big lap off the spoon and stick it back in the whatever they're baking. Yeah.
Speaker 4:
[15:40] I'm curious, how many people clean their meat? Is that a thing that-
Speaker 1:
[15:42] I've never heard of that before.
Speaker 3:
[15:43] Yeah, I was gonna say that.
Speaker 1:
[15:45] So you rinse off a T-bone before you grill it?
Speaker 3:
[15:47] Yes.
Speaker 1:
[15:48] Really?
Speaker 3:
[15:48] Yeah.
Speaker 4:
[15:49] Just because I don't know what blood or whatever, whenever it came from the factory, what might still be on it.
Speaker 3:
[15:54] Yeah, but then aren't you taking like the flavor away from it?
Speaker 4:
[15:56] No, because you're gonna season it afterward.
Speaker 3:
[15:59] All right. You're right. I'm not great at seasoning.
Speaker 1:
[16:01] Well, not only that, I mean, you don't have to clean it because you're gonna broil it or you're going to grill it. It'll cook all the dog hair away.
Speaker 4:
[16:08] Oh, no.
Speaker 2:
[16:09] Someone says cleaning meat is how you spread salmonella.
Speaker 1:
[16:12] Yeah.
Speaker 4:
[16:13] If you clean it, like, there's certain ways to clean meat. And that's another conversation we won't dive into, but I will always clean my meat. I'll always clean my meat.
Speaker 1:
[16:20] No. With a little Irish spring? Okay. Thanks, Fawn. All right. We'll be back in a second on KDWB. The youth are going back to somewhere that has been abandoned. They haven't done this in years, but they're headed back. Why and what's the draw? And we'll tell you where it is and where they're going back to and why that is. Coming up next on KDWB, you can't make this stuff up. For a long time, the youth did not want to go there, but now they're headed back to the mall. But not in the 80s, sort of a way. Young shoppers are going to stores to feel that fun and worth hanging out in. Brands like Sephora, Bath and Body Works, and some other ones, Five Below, are thriving because they offer more than just products. They offer an experience. These stores invite browsing, testing, wandering, and lingering, turning shopping into a social activity rather than a quick sale. So for Gen Z, the mall come back is less about buying stuff and more about having a place to go, hang out offline for a bit, and feel something other than scrolling fatigue. Do you guys think that's true? I mean, I know you're not in the demographic.
Speaker 2:
[17:37] I mean, I do think those stores that you listed are good for browsing. So anytime I go to Sephora or Ulta or even a Barnes and Noble, and the first person you walk in and they're like, Hi, can I help you find anything? I'm like, No, I'm just going to enjoy strolling around. Sometimes it's the stroll that's the experience.
Speaker 4:
[17:55] Yeah, that's what I say. I'm like, No, I'm just looking. Because sometimes you have no intention on buying anything, but you just enjoy.
Speaker 2:
[18:00] I always have an intention. I just like to find it myself. It's part of the fun.
Speaker 1:
[18:03] Well, I don't go to the makeup stores or jewelry stores, really, but I go to what?
Speaker 2:
[18:08] Missing out.
Speaker 1:
[18:09] I know. But I do go to like a Barnes and Noble or whatever. And it's fun to just, I don't go very often. Right. But who doesn't enjoy a bookstore?
Speaker 2:
[18:16] Yeah, just like browsing, just wandering around.
Speaker 1:
[18:18] You're like, Oh, let's go in the biography section.
Speaker 4:
[18:20] Yeah.
Speaker 2:
[18:20] And it's fun to be like, Oh, what's this? I'm going to read this thing. Oh, what's this? Oh, cool. I didn't know I wanted this, but now I do.
Speaker 1:
[18:26] And there's a coffee shop, so they welcome you to kind of hang out for a while and browse around a little bit. All right. Another one, water snobs. People seem to have strong opinions about the stuff in their water bottles. Survey says that two out of three of us say that we're picky about the type of water that we drink, and most people say they can instantly tell the difference between tap, bottled, filtered, or spring water.
Speaker 3:
[18:50] Oh, yeah. Right.
Speaker 1:
[18:51] No, they can't. Thirty-five percent say they bring their own water everywhere, and another third say they'd rather go thirsty than drink a type they don't like.
Speaker 4:
[19:01] What? I think you can tell the difference between tap, but then like Dasani, Fiji, no, you can't tell the difference.
Speaker 1:
[19:07] No, I don't think so. I saw something on TV, I don't know, a decade ago, where they said, no, it's a high-end restaurant. Would you like this water or this water or this water? I'll have this water. They filled it from a hose in the backyard to see whether people's like, oh, and they had a water chef or a water. A water chef. A water, like a, what is it? Is it a sommelier?
Speaker 3:
[19:31] No, those are for wine.
Speaker 1:
[19:32] I know that, but that's what I mean. It was a water sommelier.
Speaker 3:
[19:35] A sommelier, yeah.
Speaker 1:
[19:36] Whatever, yeah.
Speaker 2:
[19:37] A water chef.
Speaker 1:
[19:38] So you shut up.
Speaker 2:
[19:39] You shut up.
Speaker 1:
[19:40] I'm stupid. You know that. You've known it for years. So they're like, no, this one is from the foothills of France, and it was all from a garden hose, and they would have them taste the same different waters. They were all from a garden hose out back.
Speaker 2:
[19:52] And the hose water tastes the best.
Speaker 3:
[19:53] It does.
Speaker 4:
[19:54] You should be able to sue for that.
Speaker 1:
[19:56] What?
Speaker 4:
[19:56] You should be able to sue for that. Don't ask me, what water would you like? This one or this one? Then just go get the hose. That's crazy.
Speaker 1:
[20:03] Well, people think that they have a taste. It's like when we had Diet Coke and Pepsi and Pepsi Zero Sugar in the studio a month ago, I really, I thought I hated Diet Coke. And I tried it and I was like, Mom, that's my favorite one.
Speaker 2:
[20:16] Your brain hates Diet Coke.
Speaker 1:
[20:18] My brain does hate Diet Coke, because Diet Coke is, it tastes like paint thinner mixed with paint thinner. I love it. And no, and so people are like this 50 year old beverage that's been around forever. People all of a sudden are like, oh, Diet Coke is so good. No, it's tasted like paint thinner mixed with paint thinner since 1976.
Speaker 2:
[20:37] Nice and crispy. It tastes like, you know, aspartame, chemicals.
Speaker 1:
[20:41] Well, you love that.
Speaker 2:
[20:42] Injected into my veins.
Speaker 1:
[20:43] No, no, no. Diet Pepsi or Pepsi Zero Sugar. I will give a tip of the hat to Coke Zero Sugar, which is quite good. It's not quite Diet Pepsi, but Coke Zero Sugar is quite good.
Speaker 2:
[20:56] Eh, I don't want it to taste like Coke, and Coke Zero tastes like Coke.
Speaker 1:
[20:59] Well, that's what you want to taste like.
Speaker 2:
[21:00] I want it to taste like Diet Coke.
Speaker 1:
[21:02] Well, the best tasting one is Coca-Cola.
Speaker 3:
[21:04] No.
Speaker 1:
[21:04] But you're drinking a pound of sugar when you drink a Coca-Cola. It is. It's a pound of sugar.
Speaker 3:
[21:10] I don't know the last time I had regular Coca-Cola. No. I don't remember either.
Speaker 4:
[21:14] There's a difference? Coca-Cola and Coke?
Speaker 1:
[21:18] No, no, same thing. Same thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4:
[21:20] Hold on.
Speaker 1:
[21:21] You're adorable, Vaughn. However, there's no question that the best flavor of icy, slurpy, slushy, whatever you want to call it, is Coca-Cola. You have the palate of a 12-year-old boy.
Speaker 4:
[21:40] And if so what? And?
Speaker 2:
[21:42] And? I didn't know Coke and Coca-Cola were different.
Speaker 4:
[21:46] She kept specifying Coca-Cola. I was like, I thought that was the same exact thing.
Speaker 1:
[21:51] Oh, you're adorable.
Speaker 3:
[21:52] Well, Vaughn is adorable too in the text messages because everyone's coming at him for saying he washes his meat.
Speaker 4:
[21:57] A minute ago.
Speaker 1:
[21:58] Talk about this a little bit.
Speaker 3:
[21:59] Yeah. Well, Vaughn, what did you say?
Speaker 4:
[22:01] A minute ago, I stirred the pot. First, I said that you should be able to critique other people's cooking. And then I don't know how, but I said, you got to wash your meat. And I said, I used to do it with water, but to get rid of germs, use like lemon juice or vinegar. I do that almost every time I cook. And in the event, the only time I don't is in the event I don't have it, tons of text messages. Vont is wrong, per usual. Vont, I'm a chef. You don't need to clean meat if you handle from the store properly, but you don't know what the store is doing.
Speaker 3:
[22:26] Right, but it's the fact that you are then spreading germs around the kitchen by cleaning the meat that way.
Speaker 4:
[22:31] I don't think so. I haven't had herpagonoplaminaria yet.
Speaker 3:
[22:34] Well, that's not what you get from dirty meat. I don't know.
Speaker 4:
[22:38] That's what you get from dirty meat, Jennie.
Speaker 3:
[22:39] Dirty meat.
Speaker 4:
[22:40] Dirty meat, another text message. No, don't clean meat. All you... Oh, it went away. All you're doing is spreading germs around the kitchen. You just read that. Here's one. It says, we always clean our meat. I don't know who that is, but they're verified sources.
Speaker 2:
[22:52] One person in a C.
Speaker 4:
[22:53] I'm reading all the text messages.
Speaker 2:
[22:54] Bailey.
Speaker 3:
[22:56] It says, somebody went to ChatGPT, and they said, the short answer, no, you should not wash raw meat before cooking it. Why not? It spreads bacteria. Rinsing meat can splash harmful bacteria onto your sink, counters in nearby food. It doesn't actually make it safer. Cooking meat to the proper temperature is what kills bacteria, not rinsing it.
Speaker 4:
[23:14] Now we're trusting ChatGPT and AI?
Speaker 3:
[23:16] When it's on our side, yeah.
Speaker 4:
[23:17] Now we're trusting internet sources?
Speaker 3:
[23:20] Bouska.
Speaker 4:
[23:21] Bouska!
Speaker 1:
[23:22] Nobody washes their meat. Blanket statement.
Speaker 4:
[23:26] Vont Leak does.
Speaker 3:
[23:26] You don't, Dave?
Speaker 1:
[23:28] Oh, God, no. No, you take the chicken out of the package, you stick it in the frying pan, you stick it in the broiler, whatever it is you do. You take hamburger meat, you wash hamburger meat? No.
Speaker 3:
[23:37] No.
Speaker 1:
[23:38] Do you wash a T-bone?
Speaker 4:
[23:39] No. Chicken and pork, almost always.
Speaker 1:
[23:42] Okay.
Speaker 4:
[23:43] I undoubtedly will almost always wash chicken and pork.
Speaker 1:
[23:46] Can I ask you, who taught, were you taught that? Or you were taught that?
Speaker 4:
[23:50] My mom and my stepmom, who I learned how to cook from, and then Alyssa does it as well.
Speaker 1:
[23:53] Okay.
Speaker 2:
[23:54] Oh, yeah. Somebody did text in saying it's a melanated person thing.
Speaker 4:
[23:57] I mean, maybe. Maybe it's a cultural thing. But any meat you get from me will be clean. David's meat is not clean.
Speaker 1:
[24:04] What did you just say?
Speaker 4:
[24:05] I said any meat.
Speaker 1:
[24:05] What are you accusing me of?
Speaker 4:
[24:06] Any meat from me is clean. David's meat is not clean.
Speaker 1:
[24:09] Okay, fine. I gotta give a birthday shout out and change the subject. Shout out to A from Andy. Happy birthday, A. It is 101.3 KDWB. We'll cover Dave's dirt. We got a lot of stuff to cover coming up next on KDWB. Can she make a song that's not like super catchy and like not a huge hit? Love that song. It's KDWB on The Dave Ryan Show. We were talking about various things as we are known to do. And somehow it came up Coke versus Pepsi. Oh, I know what it was. They were talking about water snobs who will only drink spring water or what's Perrier. I do like Perrier, but I'm not a fancy person. I'm kind of a hayseed. I mean, deep down inside, I grew up on a chicken farm and wore hand-me-down clothes. I'm kind of a hayseed.
Speaker 2:
[24:58] I smell like it too. What?
Speaker 1:
[24:59] And so I like Perrier, but I won't buy it because I feel like it's above me. You know what I mean? So I won't do that. So then we started talking about Coke, and then which is better, Coke or Pepsi? And then Rebecca calls in. Are you going to make fun of my beloved Pepsi? Is that what you're here to do? What are you going to do, Rebecca?
Speaker 6:
[25:15] No, I'm not. My brother's worked for Pepsi for a very long time. But just a little history lesson on Coke and Diet Coke and why people are so obsessed with Diet Coke.
Speaker 1:
[25:24] Yes.
Speaker 6:
[25:26] So way back in the day, Coca-Cola actually had small traces of Coke.
Speaker 1:
[25:30] Like a hundred and twenty years ago, there was a little bit of cocaine in Coca-Cola. Yeah.
Speaker 6:
[25:35] Yes. So when they changed the recipes, they changed, I don't know if it was like the acidity or the sugar or whatever, but Diet Coke is more similar to the original recipe of Coca-Cola's taste than actual Coca-Cola is.
Speaker 1:
[25:49] Really? Okay.
Speaker 2:
[25:51] So it tastes like cocaine.
Speaker 6:
[25:53] Well, they removed it, obviously.
Speaker 2:
[25:55] But the taste is still there. Cocaine.
Speaker 6:
[25:58] 120 years ago versus the actual Coca-Cola.
Speaker 2:
[26:01] That's like saying I'm getting meat-flavored gum. There's no meat in the gum, but it's meat-flavored.
Speaker 1:
[26:05] It's meat-flavored.
Speaker 2:
[26:06] Yeah.
Speaker 6:
[26:07] So get me started on bananas and artificial bananas.
Speaker 2:
[26:10] Wait, what? No, I know this information too. You tell us.
Speaker 6:
[26:14] Well, like the artificial flavor of banana is technically supposed to be like what bananas are supposed to taste like, and what we eat as bananas was genetically modified to be healthier.
Speaker 4:
[26:23] Yes.
Speaker 2:
[26:24] It's like an extinct banana type, is the artificial banana flavor on a Laffy Taffy when you're like, it doesn't even taste like real banana. It tastes like artificial banana. No, actually, that is the real banana, and the bananas that we are used to are genetically modified to get to that point.
Speaker 4:
[26:40] This is so bizarre. So the flavor is the real deal, but the actual banana is...
Speaker 2:
[26:44] Maybe not genetically modified, but evolved over time.
Speaker 3:
[26:47] But they were modified to be healthier, is what you were saying?
Speaker 6:
[26:51] Well, I don't know about the flavor, but maybe it was too artificially flavored back then. But yeah, real bananas are not banana flavored, and artificial banana Laffy Taffys are real bananas.
Speaker 4:
[27:01] That's so insane.
Speaker 1:
[27:01] Well, I think the lesson here is eat more Laffy Taffy.
Speaker 2:
[27:04] True.
Speaker 1:
[27:05] I do think that's true.
Speaker 2:
[27:06] Because it's the genuine flavor.
Speaker 1:
[27:08] Everything's, though, genetically modified. I mean, the apple that Adam and Eve ate in the Garden of Eden was not a Granny Smith. It was not a Red Delicious. No, it was not a Red Delicious. Those have all been modified. We get like a Minnesota came up with the honey crisp, I think. Yes, it was developed here at the U of M.
Speaker 2:
[27:27] Yeah. OK.
Speaker 1:
[27:28] Well, thank you, Rebecca. We appreciate the knowledge.
Speaker 4:
[27:30] Thanks, guys.
Speaker 1:
[27:31] OK. Wow. The more you know.
Speaker 4:
[27:34] Right. You never know who's listening.
Speaker 1:
[27:36] I still don't like Diet Coke. I mean, Diet Coke will do if there's a...
Speaker 3:
[27:39] Me neither. I'm so on the side with you.
Speaker 1:
[27:41] If there's a vending machine and it has Diet Coke, I usually go, I'm going to pass.
Speaker 2:
[27:46] But you love cocaine and it's cocaine flavored.
Speaker 1:
[27:48] I do love some cocaine. Ah, a little nose candy. Geez, Louise. All for it. Let's do Dave's dirt on 101.3 KDWB.
Speaker 3:
[27:59] In the movie Miss Congeniality, there's a famous line where William Shatner, who's hosting the Miss United States Pageant, asks Miss Rhode Island, can you describe your perfect date? And she goes, I'd have to say April 25th because it's not too hot, not too cold. All you need is a light jacket. Are you serious? Yes, that's actually what happens in the movie. However, meteorologists challenged the off-repeated line from it. And said that the actual perfect date is October 8th because the ranking is based on precipitation and temperature. The nationwide average temperature on October 8th is 66 degrees with less than a tenth of an inch of rain. And then meteorologists determined that April 25th, which is coming up this Saturday, is only the 80th best date of the year. So Miss Rhode Island, you were wrong. But it was your opinion, so do you, girl.
Speaker 2:
[28:50] Harry Styles and Zoe Kravitz may be engaged. They were spotted by a paparazzi in London on Sunday and took a bunch of pictures of them together. Says that they looked so in love, and she has an enormous diamond ring on her finger. I did see it. It is like the entirety of her first joint up to her knuckle. It's ginormous. So potentially they are engaged. They've only been dating for about eight months at this point, but I guess we will find out potentially at the Met Gala in two weeks where they are both invited.
Speaker 4:
[29:22] Sydney Sweeney was supposed to be in like a not even three minute cameo of The Devil Wears Prada 2. Apparently her scene was cut. I don't know what the official word is, but apparently people think it's because it's just her premiere on Euphoria wearing a baby outfit and pretending to do OnlyFans is just a bit much for The Devil Wears Prada 2. And it's literally just a three minute scene. They cut it out of the final copy.
Speaker 1:
[29:43] It's prom season, and this happened over the weekend. Some kids down in Kansas somehow managed to talk the Wiener Mobile driver into driving them to prom.
Speaker 5:
[29:55] One of my buddies was like, can we rent this thing?
Speaker 4:
[29:58] And I was like, bro, what if we just ask about prom?
Speaker 5:
[30:01] What if they take us?
Speaker 4:
[30:02] It's tomorrow.
Speaker 5:
[30:03] Like, that'd be insane. It was a little light bulb. And we were like, well, what time is prom? And from there, we checked our schedule and we were able to make it happen. Hearing about prom, I mean, I have such special memories, like with my high school experience with my prom and knowing that we could add the weenie magic of the big dog to it, we figured it had to be done.
Speaker 1:
[30:23] Well said. Oscar Meyer, what marketing? I mean, the Wienermobile, taking kids to prom, you can't buy that publicity.
Speaker 3:
[30:31] Seriously. Farmers want to start breeding uglier cows. Now stick with me. It's all because of social media. Apparently a farmer in the UK says that influencers are flooding his land to take selfies, hug and film his fluffy Highland cows for TikTok and Instagram. Now if you've ever seen a Highland cow, they are so adorable. The problem is that it's stressing the cows out and it can be dangerous. If anything happened, the farmer would be liable if someone got hurt while they're taking their little selfies. So his solution is to make the cows less camera ready and he plans to cross breed them with less photogenic breeds so that people don't come and take pictures with his Highland cows.
Speaker 1:
[31:11] Aw, ugly cows.
Speaker 5:
[31:12] But they're the cutest ones.
Speaker 3:
[31:14] They are so cute, but that doesn't mean that you should be going on to a farmer's property and trying to get selfies with their cows.
Speaker 2:
[31:21] I saw a very mystical cow the other day when I was driving through the boonies.
Speaker 1:
[31:24] Oh, boy.
Speaker 2:
[31:25] And it was a white cow that had long flowing hair. No, it didn't. No, it didn't. It was like a long haired white cow, and it was galloping through the field, and it was a very mystical looking cow.
Speaker 6:
[31:37] I think she saw a horse.
Speaker 2:
[31:38] No, it was a cow. It had long hair.
Speaker 1:
[31:41] It was a Samoyed dog.
Speaker 2:
[31:43] No, it was huge.
Speaker 1:
[31:45] You're an idiot.
Speaker 2:
[31:48] I'm going to Google long haired white cow, and you're going to see.
Speaker 1:
[31:51] You go do that. I will.
Speaker 3:
[31:52] Yeah, I would love to see what a long haired, mystical white cow looks like.
Speaker 2:
[31:55] I will find one for you. Anyway, in Jeopardy News, Jamie Deng is on a roll right now. He just won his 28th game, and he's looking to break some more records. So far, he has already broke Ken Jennings' record with the most correct responses in a single game, and he has already out-earned Ken Jennings in one particular episode or one episode at a time, making $42,400 in one game, which is a lot of money. He has so far won $775,000. He's on his 28th game. Ken Jennings has won 74 straight games, so we'll see if he gets to it.
Speaker 4:
[32:36] I've been watching Temptation Island, which is a reality-dating show on Netflix. It's very, very good. And we finally have a date for the reunion episode. It's going to be hosted, oddly enough, not by Mark L. Wahlberg, who hosts actual Temptation Island. It's hosted by Nick Viall, who is the host on Age of Attraction. It comes out in two parts on their podcast. The first episode comes out this today, and then part two a couple of days later, April 24th. If anyone's been watching Temptation Island, Jenny, I need you to get on to it. It is so spicy.
Speaker 3:
[33:04] There's just too much TV to watch.
Speaker 1:
[33:07] Sometimes, there's not a lot, but now there seems like a whole lot.
Speaker 3:
[33:10] Right now, there is a lot.
Speaker 1:
[33:12] Something to watch this weekend, even though it's not getting good reviews from the critics, is the Michael Jackson movie.
Speaker 4:
[33:18] Really?
Speaker 1:
[33:18] Opens up this weekend. They think it's gonna do well in the box office, but a lot of critics say it is just utterly boring and surprisingly dull, glossy, and sanitized, bland and barely competent, like a daytime TV movie. I think that's what happens when the family is responsible for coming up with the movie. They're gonna gloss over all the parts of Michael Jackson that I don't want you to take this wrong, that make him an interesting story.
Speaker 2:
[33:47] You kind of sterilize it.
Speaker 1:
[33:48] Everything from the surgery to the scandals, to the marriages, to the dating, Brooke Shields and all the things, I think they're gonna make him look wonderful, which is like, hey, great. And at the same time, that's boring.
Speaker 4:
[34:02] I read that Janet Jackson kindly declined being in the movie, and I don't even think there's somebody that plays Janet Jackson. So there's just no Janet Jackson existent in this movie, which is very odd because if their estate did it, you would think that she's like, okay, I want to be a part of it because the story is gonna be told accurately, or at least the way she wants it to be.
Speaker 3:
[34:19] Bailey just looked up a photo of the cow. I'm pretty sure that's a Highland cow.
Speaker 2:
[34:23] Well, it was in Minnesota.
Speaker 3:
[34:25] Well, yeah, Highland cows aren't just in the UK or anything.
Speaker 2:
[34:30] And then you guys said I was cuckoo banana. You were like, there's no way.
Speaker 3:
[34:34] Well, I believe the way you described it made it sound much more like a horse's mane, though. No, it was just a little bit of like...
Speaker 2:
[34:41] Long-haired cow. It was so cute.
Speaker 3:
[34:44] When you hear long-haired, though, cow, you're thinking of Dave. What do you think of?
Speaker 1:
[34:51] A bison, a albino bison.
Speaker 3:
[34:53] Yeah.
Speaker 6:
[34:54] Here's my long-haired cow.
Speaker 1:
[34:56] It's not a cow. That's an ox. That's a yak.
Speaker 3:
[35:00] Why is the camera...
Speaker 2:
[35:01] Okay, it's on Dave Ryan TV.
Speaker 1:
[35:03] It is a cute cow, yeah.
Speaker 4:
[35:04] But that's not a cow.
Speaker 1:
[35:06] That's a bull, because he's got horns there.
Speaker 4:
[35:07] That's gonna say cows don't have horns.
Speaker 1:
[35:08] Yeah.
Speaker 2:
[35:09] Okay, well, it's a cattle, okay? I saw a cattle. I'm sorry, I didn't say I saw a long, white-haired cattle.
Speaker 1:
[35:16] All right, that's gonna do it for the dirt on KDWB, but we're not done. Oh, no. We've got coming up, Jenny's been on Reddit. Also, we're gonna give you a chance to pay your bills. $1,000. I'm gonna do it early. I'm gonna do the keyword right out of the gate. When we come back, we're gonna do the keyword early. We're gonna beat the Christmas rush. We're gonna beat the Christmas rush, and we're gonna do the keyword early. They tell us to do it at 930. I'm not gonna do what they tell me to do. Have I ever done what they told me to do?
Speaker 2:
[35:42] No.
Speaker 1:
[35:42] No. But we'll play the keyword early, gives you a chance to win that $1,000. Coming up on KDWB, stay here to win a thousand dollars.
