0:00

I'm vanilla baby. All right, hour

0:02

two of the Donna and Steve

0:04

show. He said vanilla so quickly.

0:06

I have a question for you,

0:08

because I think it's important

0:11

that as co-hosts we always get

0:13

to know each other more. Okay.

0:15

Did you like Neapolitan

0:17

ice cream? No. I mean, if I

0:19

was out of wedding and it was

0:21

put in front of me, you'd

0:23

probably take a bite. Don't you

0:25

enjoy that in the same carton?

0:28

are three different flavors

0:30

of ice cream. Strawberry,

0:32

chocolate, and vanilla. And it

0:34

doesn't feel like it would

0:37

all play nicely together,

0:39

but it really, really does. And

0:41

actually, the ice cream soup

0:43

that it turns into in the

0:45

end is pretty cool as well.

0:48

Cool. Come on. Okay, this is

0:50

how Steve's brain works. He

0:52

hears a song and he

0:54

heard the word vanilla in

0:56

it and then he starts

0:58

thinking of ice cream and

1:00

then other flavors that go

1:02

well together and then he

1:04

feels the urge to share it

1:06

with all of us. You should then

1:08

feel the urge to ask a

1:11

follow-up question, keep it going. No,

1:13

I like cake! But only one

1:15

kind. I just discovered

1:17

this about myself. Ice

1:19

cream cake. Oh, I like that one too.

1:21

Okay, I like it. All right, wait,

1:24

butter cream, something with butter

1:26

cream. You're never going to

1:28

guess. It's the same one that

1:31

Bradley loves. And now I am a

1:33

lover. It is the best cake

1:35

I've ever had in my life. What

1:37

is it? It's a princess tort.

1:39

Oh, yes. Is that not the

1:41

best cake you've ever had?

1:44

It's an incredible cake. I

1:46

would like to have some of that

1:48

now. Hang on princess. An intern

1:50

would call a princess tort

1:52

factory and they'd bring it

1:55

over to us. Willette Bakery

1:57

in Anoka. Oh my god. Is

1:59

Willette? up in Anoka I think

2:02

so I think there's there might

2:04

be many locations yes the princess

2:06

tort it is a willets all-time

2:09

favorite raspberry and Bavarian cream layered

2:11

with Genois which is egg-rich golden

2:14

cake and wrapped in pastel almond

2:16

marzapan I love it available as

2:18

a whole cake or by the

2:21

slice How much is a slice?

2:23

Because I see $65 for the

2:25

cake. Why is cake so expensive?

2:28

Well, everything's expensive right now. Well,

2:30

I guess it's also an art

2:32

form. Yeah. Yeah. What do they

2:35

say? You can have your cake

2:37

and eat it too? No, not

2:40

that one. Because you can't. Something

2:42

about... Maybe this is just what

2:44

contractors say, not bakers. Does it

2:47

work though? You can either get

2:49

fat... Wait, you can either get

2:51

fast and cheap or slow and

2:54

expensive. No, that's probably not it.

2:56

Doesn't matter. Erase that last 30

2:58

seconds from everyone's memory. Here, wait,

3:01

here's a clean-in. Yes, that Princess

3:03

Tort looks good. 65 bucks, though,

3:06

for the whole thing, that's... That's

3:08

worth it. I'd pay that before

3:10

I bought a concert ticket for

3:13

that much. We'll get to that

3:15

later. Coming up at 11 o'clock.

3:17

Donna... Vent's are too expensive. You

3:20

know? You want to do it

3:22

right now? No, I mean, we

3:24

can. You want to? Music, he,

3:27

kind of, tickety. Okay, here's the

3:29

thing. I'm trying to get tickets

3:32

to a show, and I refuse

3:34

to pay $168 to this show.

3:36

This is to see John Milaney.

3:39

Yeah, I'm not paying $168. I'll

3:41

put his HBO special on for

3:43

free. Is it $168 resale, like

3:46

on a resale site? No, it's

3:48

on the venue site. Wow, can

3:50

you get a cheaper ticket? That

3:53

is the cheapest right now. Really?

3:55

Now I would pay $85 for

3:58

a ticket. I'm not paying... 185

4:01

for one ticket

4:04

you know what though Donna no

4:06

I'm no I'm not but you

4:08

don't know it's just I'm not

4:10

gonna ain't gonna happen not

4:12

gonna do it okay come on

4:15

Donna I mean

4:17

parents out there like

4:19

oh suck it up Buttercup

4:21

we spent $168 two trips through

4:23

a drive -through with the minivan full

4:25

of people okay but I am

4:27

a one income household

4:29

but you're a one mouth to feed

4:31

household you're a one shirt to buy

4:33

household you're a one plane ticket to

4:35

buy household need I go on no

4:38

but we all make our choices right I understand

4:41

but everything's expensive everything's

4:43

expensive it's no

4:45

out of principle I

4:47

also feel personally I

4:49

personally believe some people

4:51

don't have maps I feel like

4:53

property taxes are way too

4:55

expensive they're just gonna tax us

4:57

all out of our homes

4:59

it's ridiculous but let

5:02

me just tell you this

5:04

the actor Brian Cox who's

5:06

you know usually just calls it

5:08

the way he sees it he's like

5:10

a thousand dollars for a ticket

5:12

to see Denzel Washington and Jake

5:14

Gyllenhaal perform in a cello he's

5:17

like that is not okay that's

5:19

ridiculous he's calling

5:21

out these more expensive tickets now

5:23

I believe you could get cheaper tickets

5:25

and there's like student rates and things like

5:27

that but he's like first of all

5:29

Jake Gyllenhaal isn't even that great in

5:31

this thing Brian Cox said this he

5:34

said let's see

5:36

he heard that

5:38

Jake Gyllenhaal's performance

5:41

is not particularly wonderful

5:43

is what he said

5:45

wow he said a friend of mine

5:47

said they couldn't believe it they

5:49

paid a fortune and he said it's

5:51

just wrong the balance is wrong

5:53

because it puts the theater in a

5:55

whole different place it's not affordable and

5:58

in the theater I think should

6:00

be for everyone, not just

6:02

rich people. It would be

6:04

nice if they capped it. Yeah,

6:06

you know. A hundred bucks.

6:08

Max ticket. Yeah. It just

6:11

seems very unfair. I hear

6:13

that, but the trouble is

6:15

when you sell all the

6:17

tickets at the high price. Yeah,

6:20

because people keep paying

6:22

for him, which is where I

6:24

take a stance. So

6:27

you're starting the movement that's

6:29

right by not buying John

6:31

Malaney tickets you damn right

6:33

Even though you could absolutely

6:36

afford it You don't know what

6:38

my financial situation is. I think

6:40

I have a pretty decent cage. I've

6:43

got a salary window for

6:45

you in my head and And

6:47

I extrapolate from there and you've

6:49

revealed some things to me about

6:52

your financial situation when

6:54

you've been drunk On the air

6:56

We'll take a break. Is it time?

6:58

You want to take a break? Oh,

7:00

I guess I want to smudge early,

7:03

but... Okay, we can take a break.

7:05

We can take a break. What do

7:07

you want to come back with?

7:09

Why don't we come back with

7:12

a little Selina Gomez and

7:14

Benny Blanco news? Oh, God,

7:16

this is the cutest thing

7:18

I've ever seen. Yeah, they did

7:20

some cute stuff. And then

7:22

we'll get to Willie Nelson.

7:25

I'm very specific reason why I'm

7:27

just like, I don't think... You

7:30

know the old saying, Donna, quality

7:32

over quantity? Hmm. I don't

7:34

like what you're going to say.

7:36

Well, I'm going to say it. I don't

7:38

think you should say it. I'm going

7:40

to say it. I'm going to say it

7:42

right when we come back. All right. That

7:45

sounds great. We'll do it. It's done

7:47

on a Steve. My talk. Hey guys,

7:49

it's Donna for Blaze Credit Union.

7:51

I tell you what, Blaze has got

7:53

loans for any purpose. You want to

7:55

buy Broadway tickets and you need to

7:57

take out a loan to do it?

8:00

into a local Blaze credit union.

8:02

There are 28 locations. They've got

8:04

great rates on all kinds of

8:06

loans like car loans, home loans,

8:09

home equity loans. There are also

8:11

other great things about Blaze like

8:13

they're totally free checking. It's really

8:15

cool because when you go into

8:18

a branch and you open a

8:20

free checking account at Blaze with

8:22

a minimum of $100 deposit, they're

8:25

going to give you $200. Like

8:27

what? How do they do that?

8:29

It's crazy. You're essentially making money

8:31

by opening the account. You can

8:34

choose your debit card. They've got

8:36

lots of local sports themes, including

8:38

the Minnesota Wild, the St. Paul

8:41

Saints, U of M alumni, all

8:43

sorts of stuff. So here's what

8:45

I would suggest. You start at

8:48

the website, BlazeCU.com. Blaze is insured

8:50

by NCUA, and they're an equal

8:52

housing opportunity lender. Hey

8:55

there Travelers, Kaylee Quoko here.

8:57

Sorry to interrupt your music,

9:00

great artist, BT Dubs, but

9:02

wouldn't you rather be there

9:04

to hear it live? With

9:07

Priceline, you can get out

9:09

of your dreams and into

9:11

your dream concert. They've got

9:14

millions of travel deals to

9:16

get you to that festival,

9:18

gig, rave, soundbath, soundbath, or

9:21

sonic experience you've been dreaming

9:23

of. McDonald's meets the Minecraft

9:25

universe with one of six collectibles

9:28

and your choice of a Big

9:30

Mac or ten-piece McNuggets with spicy

9:32

netherflame sauce now available with a

9:34

Minecraft movie meal. I participate in

9:37

McDonald's for a limited time, a

9:39

Minecraft movie, only in theaters. Tell

9:41

me you're old without telling me you're

9:43

old, right? And we just got hot

9:45

into a property tax conversation

9:47

and escrow. The fact that kids

9:49

are graduating from high school these days

9:51

and no one has even... taught them?

9:54

Even got near the

9:56

term escrow. So now when

9:58

you don't tell about this

10:00

in school, we then go to

10:02

try to buy a house someday

10:05

and then they start, people start

10:07

slinging the word escrow around. Oh,

10:09

it's an escrow right now. What

10:11

does that mean? You got to,

10:13

someone tell us, but what do

10:15

we do? We don't say what

10:17

the hell is that? Yeah, we

10:20

fake our way through everything. That's

10:22

what we teach our kids. Fake

10:24

it till you make it. Just

10:26

pretend. Then there's the saying as

10:28

escrow. And again, tell me you're

10:30

old without telling me you're old.

10:32

We were supposed to come back

10:35

talking Salina Gomez. We're going to.

10:37

Isn't it just like a little

10:39

savings account for your taxes? So

10:41

you don't pay them, you don't

10:43

have to go to the city

10:45

hall to pay them or online,

10:47

you just, the mortgage, they're built

10:50

into the mortgage. But they put

10:52

a lit, they estimate how much

10:54

your taxes are going to be

10:56

and then hopefully you have enough

10:58

money in that account. And then

11:00

they just pay them. But then

11:02

I just saw a thing from

11:05

my bank that mentioned something about

11:07

an escrow shortage. Like eventually the

11:09

escrow goes away and then what

11:11

they're like you either we're going

11:13

to increase your mortgage payment or

11:15

you need to refill the escrow

11:17

account so like hand us over

11:20

$5,000 or something. Correct. What's up

11:22

with that? That's because of property

11:24

taxes keep going up and they

11:26

didn't estimate properly. I think I'm

11:28

making this all up. Remember I

11:30

said fake it so you make

11:32

it. Yeah, if your property taxes

11:35

go up, especially unexpectedly, you're going

11:37

to be short in that little

11:39

savings account called escrow. And then

11:41

you have to make up the

11:43

difference. It's so irritating. What's my

11:45

afternoon, looking like? I don't know.

11:47

Hey, Siri, set a reminder for

11:50

4 p.m. to call the bank.

11:52

They're going to be closed. They

11:54

probably close at 4. All

11:56

right, this is so. She

11:58

had never been to prom

12:01

before as a teenager. I

12:03

believe he is a producer

12:05

type guy. And they are

12:07

so cute, you guys. He

12:09

put together, as if we

12:11

don't know who he is,

12:13

he put together this video.

12:15

She had never been to

12:17

prom before as a teenager.

12:19

And so he wanted to

12:21

take her to prom. He

12:23

rented a limo, he got

12:25

a classic talks, she wore

12:27

a really cute mauve, strapless

12:29

ball gown, and then they

12:31

went and did a photo

12:33

shoot at the mall. That's

12:35

cute. It is so cute.

12:37

Here's a, so let me

12:39

just tell you what it

12:41

says in the beginning. It

12:43

says, my fiancé has never

12:46

been to prom before. And

12:48

it's just this cute little

12:50

video. Then she's getting her

12:52

makeup done. He said, so

12:54

I asked her if we

12:56

should. Go to prom and

12:58

she said yes, I rented

13:00

a limo. Then you see

13:02

her making her grand entrance

13:04

Listen to a little bit

13:06

of the music And it's

13:08

just all written in words.

13:10

There's no talking or anything

13:12

in it. It is so

13:14

sweet. I literally Got tears

13:16

in my eyes watching this

13:18

It just seems like a

13:20

really sweet guy, you know?

13:22

There is. And then you

13:24

get to see their cute

13:26

photo, op. It's just adorable.

13:28

But anyway, I just think

13:31

it's sweet because, you know,

13:33

she was a child star,

13:35

she had, you know, a

13:37

transplant, and, you know, didn't

13:39

she have that cute, that

13:41

big operation? Did she have

13:43

not liver, but lupus? Yes,

13:45

and she had kidney transplant?

13:47

Okay, whatever it was it

13:49

was a very serious health

13:51

problem. You know, she got

13:53

you know, you know, the

13:55

big breakup with what's his

13:57

face and I just he

13:59

seems like a really good

14:01

dude. He does seem super

14:03

sweet. And I'm glad she recognizes

14:06

that and can see past

14:08

his. They actually see strange look.

14:10

They seem like a, okay, they

14:13

seem like a Hollywood couple that

14:15

you would actually want to

14:17

have lunch with. Yes. You know?

14:19

And I also think she has

14:21

a beautiful voice, speaking voice.

14:23

And singing voice, but I

14:25

really like her speaking voice. I

14:28

think it's very pretty. His

14:30

77th album and I'm sorry But

14:32

I think that's too many

14:34

albums at some point. I Don't

14:37

know if it's even an achievement

14:39

anymore That seems like a

14:41

lot of albums to put out and

14:43

I know he's old and I like

14:45

I like a lot of Willie

14:47

Nelson's music. I had no idea

14:49

that if I were to look up

14:51

his catalog I would right now have

14:54

to go through 76 albums. Do

14:56

you know it's actually 154?

14:58

What? Yes, his solo albums

15:00

come in at 77 now. What

15:02

does this mean? What does this

15:04

mean? What does this mean? Like

15:07

to use my own words here,

15:09

are you telling me that he's

15:11

got 150, he's put out 154

15:13

CDs in his life? Yes. Like

15:15

with 10 to 12 tracks on

15:18

them? Or he's working with

15:20

other artists, you know what

15:22

I mean? He was part of

15:24

that. That supergroup,

15:26

the highwayman? Yeah. It

15:28

seems like a lot. It's a lot,

15:30

but you know what I love

15:32

about this one? He is recording

15:34

some of the songs of

15:37

my, one of my favorite

15:39

songwriters, Rodney Crowell. And

15:41

I think it's gonna be

15:43

good. I don't think you can

15:46

say the quantity over

15:48

quality thing unless you've

15:50

heard what he's putting out.

15:53

Well, I can tell you one thing

15:55

for certain. I have not heard all

15:57

of his music. I thought I was

16:00

somewhat well-versed in Willie Nelson. But

16:02

if he's put out 77 albums,

16:04

hang on, I gotta do a

16:06

minute here. If he's put out

16:08

77 albums. Think about, what if

16:11

he was just putting out an

16:13

album a year? You know, since

16:15

his 20s. How many Willie Nelson

16:17

songs do you think you know?

16:19

Guess to me. Seven. All right,

16:21

but he's put out at least

16:23

770 songs. And so I'm just

16:26

saying from a batting average standpoint.

16:29

Maybe he's got a lot of

16:31

clunkers in there. He could have

16:33

done some cover songs. You know

16:36

what I mean? He did. By

16:38

Nora Sparkley? Oh, I actually meant

16:40

that, but now I think I

16:43

know the song you're talking about.

16:45

Okay. Okay. She I think he

16:47

wrote that one on the road

16:50

again. Um. Ernie, you a knucklehead,

16:52

Arnie. That's Charles, Sparkley. Okay. All

16:54

right. I don't want to talk

16:57

to you anymore. I just don't

16:59

want to. Hey, after speaking of

17:01

Charles Barkley, and congratulations to Willie

17:04

Nelson, they brought out a porta-potty

17:06

I guess the next day for

17:08

Shaquille O'Neill after he had to

17:11

leave the set. I'm pretty sure

17:13

I mentioned that yesterday. I don't

17:15

think you mentioned it on the

17:18

air, did you? I don't remember.

17:20

I don't think you did. Okay.

17:22

I'm sorry I blew up. I

17:25

blew up. We should play. You've

17:27

changed ever since we started talking

17:30

about escrow. You know, we should

17:32

play. You're furrowing, your 11s are

17:34

getting, like, they're turning into 12s.

17:37

Well, yes, I just scheduled Botox.

17:39

I want the anti-swet Botox, and

17:41

I'll get rid of my 11s

17:44

while I'm there. All right. Here's

17:46

the game we should play someday.

17:48

Okay. Kermit, Willie, or Mahomes. Or

17:51

Luke Brian. or Luke Bryan. We

17:53

play. a voice and it's either

17:55

was it Kermit, was it Willie

17:58

Nelson, was it Luke Bryan, or

18:00

was it Patrick Mahomes? Oh my

18:02

gosh, all right, I like it.

18:05

Okay, all right, we'll get our

18:07

producing staff on that. Sounds like

18:09

a good idea for whose voice

18:12

is it anyway? The Kermit edition,

18:14

yeah, the addition. Maybe Sandy Davis,

18:16

Junior. Oh yeah, hair. We'll take

18:19

a break. When we come back,

18:21

we need somebody to call us

18:23

651, 641, 1071 to be a

18:26

lifeline as we play the College

18:28

of Pop Culture Knowledge. That's next.

19:19

up. Why did it when

19:21

we did bids for kids?

19:23

Why did we not try

19:25

to get me some points?

19:27

Um, I don't know. Because

19:29

you don't need that. That's

19:31

cheap. That's gross. That's slimy.

19:34

You wouldn't feel good about

19:36

winning that way. Well, here's

19:38

the good news, Donna. I

19:40

may or may not have

19:42

a particular plan for us

19:44

in this game when we

19:46

get back from the crews

19:49

after May 10th. So, put

19:51

a pin a pin in

19:53

that. Okay. What we

19:55

want to know more things you will learn more later on

19:57

just tease us come I just did tease You

19:59

say it again. Well, we wanted Donna

20:01

wasn't listening That's I may or may

20:03

not have a plan for the game moving

20:05

forward after our cruise Does it involve

20:07

changing how points are awarded? Not

20:10

necessarily. No, but we may

20:12

or may not Be extending

20:14

the limit in which

20:16

Donna can have a lifeline. Oh,

20:18

so if I'm two points

20:20

if there's yeah We will discuss

20:23

this further, but Donna may

20:25

have more relief coming up

20:27

or her After the cruise

20:29

crutch you need a crutch you're crutchie

20:31

from Newsy's, you know what you're crusty From

20:34

what why you're crusty

20:36

from the crusts. You're still

20:38

lubricating your crusty knuckles This has

20:41

been going on for an hour and

20:43

30 minutes What are you

20:45

doing? I'm just rehydrating. Yeah,

20:47

at least she's not scratching her back with that

20:49

windshield That's I

20:51

guess progress That's

20:53

how bad things are with her You

20:57

would be the kind of lady who's like, I know

20:59

what it's for but it also works great for this

21:03

Donna stops by pet

21:05

boys for her personal

21:07

care needs When

21:12

you're single you have to

21:14

improvise Because

21:16

you don't have someone to scratch your

21:18

back. That's what you're saying lonely lady.

21:20

That's right. I

21:26

Tell you one thing you don't I

21:28

I don't put lotion on my back But you if it

21:30

I think you have a dry back cuz you I don't

21:32

have a dry back I had like

21:35

a tag that was itching me and

21:37

I wasn't gonna take scissors and start trying to

21:39

Just don't worry. It wasn't a one -off

21:41

though. Don't I think it was a Four

21:46

or five times mean hacks on Jim

21:48

Duggan goes to town over there

21:50

Excuse me. I have more than one

21:52

shirt that has a tag in

21:54

the back Nobody

21:57

believes you were reaching for farther than the

21:59

tag Yeah.

22:01

Get out of here, both of you.

22:03

I can't, we got to do

22:05

the game. Hey Beth. Oh, hey Beth,

22:08

hi. Do we want to do the

22:10

intro or anything? No, who cares? It

22:12

doesn't matter if we don't care. Beth,

22:14

how are you? I am good. How

22:17

are you guys currently a little

22:19

loopy? Yeah, we're fine. Yeah. Who's

22:21

with you there? Beth, Beth, who's

22:24

in the background? Yeah, and

22:26

75 chicken, or 75 of

22:28

one kind of chicken, 12

22:30

of another, and a cat,

22:32

and yeah. Wait a second.

22:34

Are you gonna eat these

22:36

chickens? Someday. Yes, some of them.

22:38

Okay. Why do you have, let

22:40

me do, I'm gonna do it

22:43

in a less judgy way. Give

22:45

me a second, Beth, hang on.

22:47

Oh, wow, you have 75 of

22:49

one specific breed of chicken.

22:51

Tell me why. We all think that

22:53

like the same chickens we eat

22:56

in the store are the same

22:58

kind that lay eggs and they're

23:00

different breeds. So the 75 that

23:02

we are growing right now are

23:04

going to be like for eating

23:06

versus I have 12 layers. So how many

23:08

eggs do you get a day on a

23:11

good on a good day from your

23:13

12 chickens? 11 on a good

23:15

day but average is more like

23:17

eight. That's really good. So when

23:19

everybody's... complaining about

23:21

egg prices? Are you just laughing?

23:23

I have not bought eggs in a hot

23:26

minute. We had a problem because chickens

23:28

will molt so they'll lose all their

23:30

feathers and they stop laying and of

23:33

course ours did that at like the

23:35

height of the price increase. So that

23:37

was a little not so great but

23:39

then now that they're laying again we've

23:42

kind of caught back up and I sold

23:44

off some eggs to help make some like

23:46

make up some of the difference. I

23:48

have a question. I think

23:51

about the A. All right,

23:53

here's a question. And I think

23:55

I know the answer. Is this

23:57

a safe place, Beth? Yes.

24:00

If a chicken has an egg, and

24:04

you don't go to get the egg,

24:07

is there any chance that

24:09

that egg turns into a chicken? No,

24:11

you need a... Don't you need a male? Don't

24:13

you need a rooster? What's the rooster

24:15

gonna do? need a rooster. We don't have any...

24:17

Impregnate her. Because I hate the

24:20

noise. I can't do it. Yeah,

24:22

amen. No, but that... You need a

24:24

male in order to fertilize the

24:26

egg. So is the whole point of

24:28

the egg then? You're telling me

24:30

it's only best possible outcome is to

24:32

be a source of food for

24:34

humans. Like it can't grow into an

24:36

animal. This is a

24:38

big philosophical question for 10 a .m. But

24:40

wait, what is the... No, I'm

24:42

saying if you don't eat the

24:44

egg, if you don't take the

24:47

eggs in and eat them... What

24:49

happens to it? Yes,

24:51

does it... Could it gonna eat their own

24:53

eggs eventually if you just leave them for

24:55

long enough and they're hungry enough or other

24:57

things will eat them. But yeah, I But

24:59

it can't turn into an animal. If

25:02

they aren't like fertilized, yeah. It's

25:05

like when a woman releases

25:07

an egg every month.

25:09

Oh, that's it? It's as

25:11

if a chicken is having

25:13

its period. Pretty much. Oh

25:15

my God. So wait, a

25:17

rooster has to

25:20

impregnate the chicken,

25:22

the lady. And

25:24

then if they do that,

25:27

while the egg forms

25:29

in the body, then

25:31

it could produce

25:33

life inside of the

25:35

eggshell. Yes. All

25:38

right. Are you good? I... No, I'm not.

25:40

I have a lot of questions, but we need

25:42

to move on. We need to do

25:44

like project down and dirty farm

25:47

life. That would be fun. I

25:49

would love that. I would help.

25:51

I'd do it. Where are you?

25:53

What area? So

25:55

I'm up in Princeton, but not

25:57

in, like, this city proper. or

26:00

like just, or like maybe 10

26:02

minutes outside of Princeton

26:04

itself. Okay. Last thing, last

26:06

thing. I think we did lose Storm, by the way.

26:09

The last thing I'll say as

26:11

we conclude chicken talk is,

26:13

isn't it crazy when you think about

26:15

the fact that, okay, without the assistance of

26:17

a guy chicken, that

26:19

chickens actually produce

26:21

inside of their body

26:24

a shelled egg.

26:27

Like that is

26:29

insane, right? Like how, where are

26:31

they getting these materials? I

26:33

don't know, this is true of

26:35

many animals, alligators, you know

26:37

what I mean? Every single day,

26:39

they produce an egg

26:41

with a shell on it.

26:44

Like honestly, goodness, they don't even have, where are

26:46

they getting these materials from? Did someone drop

26:48

you on planet earth? I

26:51

am marveling at God's beautiful

26:54

creation and how it all works.

26:56

That's just insane. think he

26:58

needs to watch some more animal documentaries or

27:00

something. That's what I'm hearing.

27:02

I think you're right. But it

27:04

is crazy, we just

27:06

don't experience awe

27:08

enough around the involuntary

27:10

production of eggs every day from

27:12

chickens. We just walk past chickens.

27:14

I stop listening to everything you're saying because

27:16

I'm wondering where Storm are at. We

27:18

lost our producer. All right, Storm, we're

27:21

ready. You

27:23

guys ready? Yeah, it's a quickie version. Here

27:25

we go. All right, sounds good. I do

27:27

want to say thank you to 191 Virtual

27:29

Academy for sponsoring the college of pop culture

27:31

27:33

27:52

27:58

Bob's Burgers. Steve. Wow, that's a.

31:10

Right? Aggressive. Yeah. She must know.

31:13

Steve, you said The Simpsons. You

were debating. Family Gary Simpson's. You

31:17

ultimately went with, you said, is

the safer pick, The Simpsons. The

31:22

correct answer is Bob's Burger's. Wow!

32:20

When we return, Donna, Steve, my talk.

32:22

Hey friends, what's up? It is Stevie

32:24

Boy for Learning Rx. Hear me now

32:26

when I say, Learn Easier. Think faster,

32:28

perform better. Wouldn't you love that for

32:30

your child who might be struggling

32:32

academically to watch confidence come back to

32:34

them? It'd be a great thing. It

32:36

maybe doesn't always happen when you're going

32:38

through tutoring sessions. Like, okay, all

32:40

right, they got a passing grade on

32:43

the test, but what about their confidence?

32:45

What about their ability to think better,

32:47

to think faster? Has that changed at

32:49

all? Probably not. If you're not

32:51

getting to the root cause of what's

32:53

going on. That's what Learning Rx does.

32:55

They want to help people who have

32:57

struggles academically and they have a

32:59

totally different way of doing it. It

33:01

is not tutoring. It is not bring

33:03

your homework and we'll work on it.

33:05

You'll go through a cognitive assessment.

33:07

It's only 99 bucks when you mentioned

33:10

my talk and then that will reveal

33:12

what's going on in your child's brain.

33:14

What are their strengths? What are

33:16

areas that could be holding them back

33:18

and making things more difficult than they

33:20

ought to be? Get to the root

35:01

want to do tiebreaker for

35:03

funzies real quick? Come on.

35:05

It's like one of those obsessive

35:08

compulsive things. Yeah, I was

35:11

just about to launch into

35:13

a story. I know, and

35:15

I wanted to cut you

35:17

off before you did. It

35:19

should have called this. All

35:21

right, here we go. Tiebreaker

35:23

for funzies. Paul Rubens played

35:25

the character Iver in two

35:27

story modes for this video

35:29

game franchise. A film starring

35:32

Emma Myers and Daniel

35:34

Brooks about this video

35:36

game actually came out

35:39

just this year. This

35:41

video game includes a

35:43

guy named Steve. Donna.

35:45

That is Minecraft. Yes. Well,

35:47

I just took a guess. Don't

35:49

give me that look with your

35:52

11s. Donna. Your forehead

35:54

shaming me. Sorry. Honestly,

35:56

would you at these kids? thought

36:01

that doesn't even make sense. I

36:03

have a great hairline. What are

36:06

you doing? Who are you becoming?

36:08

Would you at least consider Botox?

36:10

Yeah, sure. I want to give

36:13

you a pamphlet. Okay, Steve. What?

36:15

I can't, well, give you. I'm

36:17

not giving you. I've stopped trying

36:20

to convert you to my faith.

36:22

Now I just want you to

36:24

become my Botox buddy. We are

36:26

the same faith. You dummy. All

36:29

right, anyway. We're grading on a

36:31

curve there. Remember a couple weeks

36:33

ago when Donna was like, how

36:36

about the Bible, huh? She's like,

36:38

gee, that's a little long. You

36:40

can shorten that thing up. She's

36:42

like, we got three guys telling

36:45

the same story, like collaborate, boys.

36:47

I was like, Donna, it's four

36:49

gospels and it's unique for me

36:52

and whatever. And by the way,

36:54

Steve, I think you're mispronouncing that

36:56

word. It's actually the Bible. So

36:58

gross. All right, here we go.

37:01

What? I was telling one of

37:03

my kids last night that you,

37:05

at one point, received a handwritten

37:08

letter from Taylor Swift. Hmm. And

37:10

then my daughter, my nine-year-old daughter,

37:12

who really likes Taylor Swift, was

37:14

like, really? I said, really? And

37:17

she's got it hung up at

37:19

her house. It's like framed and

37:21

it's safe. And I think there's

37:24

a penny with it. I don't

37:26

really remember. I think Taylor Swift

37:28

was congratulating you on something. Yes,

37:31

on an ACM nomination. And this

37:33

is because you used to do

37:35

a lot of interviews with Taylor

37:37

Swift when she was young on

37:40

the country radio tour. That's right.

37:42

And kudos to Taylor Swift for

37:44

apparently being personable enough and thoughtful

37:47

enough to remember you. She loves

37:49

stationary. Yeah, like when I mean

37:51

at the time when we were

37:53

doing a lot of interviews, we

37:56

you know, see her all the

37:58

time. Like all the time. we'd

38:00

go to Nashville and do an

38:03

interview and she'd be like, hey

38:05

guys, how are you? And we'd be

38:07

like, hey girl. That's very

38:09

fun. Yeah, and then she just,

38:12

you know, she became a big

38:14

superstar. Can I have that?

38:16

Sure. When I die. Okay. All right,

38:18

fair. I get the Taylor Swept

38:21

Letter. Yes, you can have it.

38:23

What are you going to do with

38:25

it? Probably sell it.

38:27

Is that all you wanted to talk

38:30

about? I just for that part.

38:32

Okay. You got more? Yeah, I do have

38:34

more. Wait until you hear this

38:36

story about a man who discovered he

38:39

accidentally bought back his

38:41

own stolen car. There's this 36

38:43

year old man in the UK named

38:45

Ewan Valentine. Are you hearing

38:47

me, Donna? I am. High cause. Cousin Ewan.

38:50

He woke up a couple of months

38:52

ago and realized that his car

38:54

had been stolen. Right out of

38:56

his driveway. Oh no, that's awful.

38:58

He had a black Honda Civic

39:00

and he loved it. He reported

39:03

it, did all the insurance paperwork, but

39:05

the car was never found. So he

39:07

went out to buy a similar replacement

39:09

and he found a perfect match at

39:11

a used car dealer was about an

39:14

hour away and he bought it for

39:16

$26,000. That's when things got really

39:18

strange. The car had not been

39:20

formally detailed as they normally would

39:23

be. There was stuff inside. like

39:25

a piece from a tent, a

39:27

Christmas tree, pine needles, some candy

39:29

bar wrappers. The debris didn't really

39:31

feel like trash though. He was

39:34

like, this feels sort of familiar.

39:36

Oh no. But maybe everybody has

39:38

built up like that in their cars.

39:40

Well then, he was messing around

39:43

with the cars navigation system

39:45

built in and saw his address and

39:47

his parents address both in

39:49

the system's history. He said I

39:52

nearly crashed the car to be honest. Oh

39:54

my gosh, what are the chances? I was in shock.

39:56

My hands were shaking, my heart was

39:58

pounding, it took it to the dealership.

40:00

confirmed it was his stolen car.

40:02

The robbers, so to speak,

40:04

the car thefts, thieves, the

40:06

bad boys had scratched out

40:08

the original VIN number and

40:11

made something new over top

40:13

of it. So not only

40:15

did the guy not realize

40:17

it, but then the dealership

40:19

didn't realize that they had

40:21

bought a stolen vehicle as

40:23

well. And why didn't they detail

40:25

it? I don't know. You think you

40:27

know a guy? I've

40:30

always wanted to

40:32

say that. I didn't feel

40:34

like it fit. Okay. We'll

40:36

just let it work.

40:39

Okay. That's crazy. Yeah. You

40:41

ever had a car stolen?

40:44

No. You ever been robbed?

40:46

I've had something stolen

40:48

from my car. What

40:51

did they steal? My purse?

40:53

My wallet. Everything

40:55

in my purse. Oh. Not that

40:57

long ago. It was when

41:00

I got, it was right

41:02

after I adopted my dog,

41:04

Buddy, so. Probably more

41:07

than a decade ago. No.

41:09

I don't know. No, because I

41:11

was working here. Really?

41:13

Yes. I feel like I would

41:15

have heard about this.

41:17

You're dramatic. I feel

41:20

like they called Amy Daniels. the

41:22

police or the people at target

41:24

called Amy because I had a

41:27

card or something that said Donna

41:29

Valentine. Oh, I had my, um,

41:31

oh my God, help me out, my card

41:33

to get in to the building. Yes,

41:36

so they called and they got Amy,

41:38

then Amy called me and I was

41:40

like, where is it? They went shopping

41:42

at Target. Oh, nice. What did they

41:44

get? I don't remember. Oh, but

41:47

they were suspicious. So the security

41:49

took them. Boy do they have

41:51

quite the operation behind the scenes

41:54

at target security cameras

41:56

like walls of security cameras.

41:58

Really? Yeah. So if you're... And

42:01

then I had to go to the

42:03

police station, I had to fill stuff

42:05

out, and then I had to, you

42:08

know, they wanted to know if I

42:10

wanted to make a victim statement. Oh,

42:12

I bet you seized that opportunity. I

42:14

didn't. I said no. Are you kidding?

42:16

You speak in victim language all the

42:19

time. They gave you a formal opportunity?

42:21

To write a letter or to show

42:23

up in court. I have to miss

42:25

the show. Can't do that to our

42:28

listeners to our listeners. Anyway, thanks for

42:30

asking. I have a quick bit of

42:32

food news for you. All right. McDonald's

42:34

has introduced its first new permanent addition

42:37

to its menu in four years. Their

42:39

chicken tenders have returned. They had made

42:41

an appearance pre-pandemic. People like them, but

42:43

then they wanted to simplify their menu

42:46

after the pandemic, and so they did

42:48

not bring them back. So what was

42:50

a limited time thing will now make

42:52

its permanent return to McDonald's menu. Chicken

42:55

tenders. Common McDonald's. You prefer tenders or

42:57

nuggets? I do like a good chicken

42:59

tender. I'm wondering, I think that these

43:01

chicken tenders, it's not just like a

43:04

long nugget, is it? I don't want

43:06

just a long chicken nugget. No, I

43:08

think it's actually the tendon. Do you

43:10

really think that? I do. I do

43:13

think that you are very wrong. I

43:15

don't think we're eating chicken tendons. Tender,

43:17

tender. I'll get back to you on

43:19

that.
