Speaker 1 (00:00):
We Oh sorry, Jenny, I started before you even turned
your microphone around with Heather, that one that's not on now?
Can you hear me? So professional? It's a professional podcast. Welcome.
I'm still fun podcasts. I think we broke one of
the microphones in here, but we I mean me and Colt,
(00:21):
all three of us. You were in here when it
was I walked in when the debacle was happening and
colds like, oh no, they're gon need appliers, and you
were like last and never came back. I know, like, okay,
so tis another week. Thanks for dealing with us last
week as we had a late episode, but we made it.
(00:44):
We made it. It's funny because we both were just
talking like off the podcast about having that kind of
groundhog feeling life, and I do feel like January is
a ground Hog's day month. And for some reason, I've
seen everyone posting memes and I agree with it. It
feels like this month has been going on forever. Last
(01:06):
week alone, to me, felt like the longest short week
I have ever had. It was four days that felt
like four months. To me.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
It didn't feel like a four day week. You're right,
I don't know what it was about it.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I know one thing on my end was we Cult
I picked up a syndicated show, so there was extra work,
especially when you're learning something new, and we had never
done a syndicated show before, so there's a lot of
extra work that goes into it. So I know that
that's the reason why I felt because it was like
day one, I was frustrated. I don't like when I
(01:40):
don't know how to do something. Day two still frustrated.
Day three a lot less frustrated. I was more optimistic.
Day four vibin which if you don't know what syndicated means, yeah,
I should clear that up. Probably, I was gonna say,
because I was probably in radio for a year or
two and people would drop that and I was like,
I don't really get what that means. Learn because there
(02:01):
are different things in radio. So Cult and Vaunt both
do this program, and I won't get into the technicality
of it, but they basically are on lots of other stations,
and they are recording radio content that is unique to
those stations. That's different, but syndicated. It's kind of like
(02:25):
Ryan Seacrest on KATIEWB. You know he's not in Minnesota,
you know he's in LA. They take his show, they
condense it down and then they air it on stations
all across the country. That's syndication. So they are doing
that with Colt and I. This is like our first market.
We announced it last week, Salt Lake City. But they're
(02:46):
taking our afternoon show, condensing it and putting it on
nights there. So it's not but it's not they, it's us.
We're condensing it. So we have to like take our
breaks and short like edit them down and record some
new stuff and put it in right so that it's
localized to Salt Lake to a degree.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Which I just want to say for those that are
listening in that this is actually like such a big
deal and I'm so happy for you guys, because you know,
there aren't a ton of syndicated shows across the nation.
It's really only the really good ones. So just know
that you guys are crushing it, and I'm so happy
for you.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Jenny. Yeah, it's it's one of those where, like you
know how they say that you reach a goal and
then you don't really take the time to celebrate it
because you're onto the next thing. Yeah, that's what my
problem is.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
So I and also I'm a negative person, so instead
of being like, oh this is I was so excited
for like two days. Yeah, and then I was like, oh,
this is more work. Well do it's more work? Yeah,
But I also feel like a little stretch than in
general when it comes to work. And then even though
Colt is honestly doing the majority of the actual work
(04:00):
to make life easier for me, but it is I'm
trying to let it slowly sink in that, like, this
is very cool and it can lead to like more syndication,
which is cool. Yeah, because a lot of you know,
the shows I look up to, they are syndicated, and
I've always thought, oh, that's so cool. Right, Typically those
(04:21):
shows have someone an extra person. They usually have about
ten people the producer who does that extra work. So
maybe one day, if we get in multiple markets, maybe
we'll have someone that can do that for us. But
right now, it's like, you know how it goes. You
got to put in the work up front to get
to that point at some point, hopefully right and that's
just part of it.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
You got to you gotta get your name out there.
There is one show that I know, it's two brothers
that are syndicated, and I think when they started it
was just the two of them, and now they have
like a third if not another producer okay on their show.
Maybe I'm wrong about that, but they at least have
three people, okay. So there's hope.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
There's hope. There's hope for that's good. How now, I
didn't know. We talked last week a little bit about
you potentially doing a trip this weekend, but you had
said the last we spoke was that your boyfriend Andrew
actually suggested you not do it because he did not
think it would be safe for you. So imagine my
surprise when I text Jenny Saturday night and I was
(05:19):
being a bitch. I texted her not to me, No,
I was doing something I don't even like, but I
was so bored or sitting on the couch, and I
texted something gossipy to Jenny, and I even at the
end of it was like, I'm done with this. I okay, gross.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
But also, anyone listening, don't act like you don't text
your best friend's gossipy shit. You know you do.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So I sent her like a little dash of gossip
and I kind of maybe you took a minute to
respond but I don't know. I wasn't really paying attention
because Jake and I were doing something. But anyway, you responded,
You're like, I'm up here. I don't know if my
service works. I'm like what you went? And I was like,
you need to text me tomorrow that you're alive, which
I did. Yeah, you did. I got a text that
just said alive. So you a skiing trip by yourself? Yeah,
(06:02):
and it's a long drive. It is a long drive.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I went up to Mount Bohemia, which is in the
up of Michigan pretty much all the way to the
tippy tippy top is where it is, and I went
to go snowboarding because Andrew and I bought season passes
for Mount Bohemia. It's the only season pass we got
this year. It literally is one hundred bucks and it
includes access to a Nordic spa and you can sleep
in their parking lot. So all of the stars kind
(06:24):
of aligned with that situation for us, even though it's
a bit of a drive. But you also don't really
want to go to Mount Bohemia unless they've had snow,
and so it was supposed to snow this weekend and
I have very few weekends available in the next like
two months, while snowboarding seasedon is upon us. So I
was like, I just got to go. And Andrew left
for a snowboarding trip that he takes every year with
(06:45):
a bunch of buddies. He left for that on Saturday night,
so he couldn't come, and I'm like, I'm just going
to do it. And we had talked previously. He wasn't
really sure that I should go by myself because it
is extreme skiing at mom Bohemia. It's all black diamonds
and higher which I know you might not know that
there's triple black diamonds, but there are, and so it
(07:07):
is like pretty extreme. So that was the part that
I was the most gutched outa at not going in
the van by myself. I was like, I don't want
to hurt myself skiing or snowboarding. I can't drive back, right,
had so many different factors, so of course, I like
took it decently easy, Like I mean, I still hit
some tree runs, went a little too fast, a couple spots,
(07:27):
took a couple of falls here and there, which is normal.
You like aren't having fun if you're not falling when
you snowboard. But yeah, I went up there, and for
safety purposes, I really didn't tell like anyone. I didn't
post on social media that I was up there. I
had texted Fallon because since she had texted me to
let her know, but Andrew had me share my location
with him, and then I was going to call my
(07:49):
mom and tell.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Her, let's share your location with me. What's Andrew going
to do. Andrew's on a trip across the country. I'm
the one that's going to have to get in at
my mid toub she drive eight to ten hours to
come save you. That is true. I should have shared it.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I should have shared it with someone else, but I
like was just trying to be respectful of like my
mom and my sisters because I was going to at
least tell my older sister Rachel, and I just like
didn't want to stress anyone out, so I just like
only kept it to Andrew. And then there's some health
issues going on with one of my cousins, so my
sisters were texting and I text them back. Very minimal
(08:22):
service up there, so it was hard to like even text.
I had no social media access really anyways, unless I
was in the main part where like you get your ticket,
your lift ticket there.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That's nice, though it's like a forced break.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yes, it was so incredibly nice. I still did, like,
you know, took videos and took pictures and stuff to
post on social media afterwards. But it was great because
it was like I kind of edited a couple things
together when I was by the Wi Fi, but outside
of that, I didn't look at anyone's social media.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Oh that's a lie. Let me show you something.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
So Friday night, I like get in. I didn't get
into like eleven thirty almost because a they're an hour ahead,
and be it took like nine hours versus the seven
it should have because of snow and I.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Stopped and whatever.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
So I get up there and I'm like, oh, I'm
gonna see if I have service. And I go to
Instagram of course right away, and the first thing that
pops up is, of course Falin. So I'm like, well,
what she got on her story? And so I click
it and this is what it froze on.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
To me with my mouth just gaping. Oh god, it
was just like the funniest freeze. One of her eyes
is half open.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
It looks like, yeah, she looks a little drunk almost that,
but I screen shotted it because I waited a good
fifteen seconds till I was like, yeah, I'm not gonna
have service, and I watched it like hoping I could
see what foul was talking about, but I just screenshotted
it so I could show you.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That's beautiful. I love it. But that's one of the
things I've said before that I like about National Parks
is there's no service, and then so it's a it's
a break, like I'm not in the car even tempted
to look at social media. I'm truly looking at.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
My Yeah, And I guess like the interesting part I
was kind of texting feltin about this is snowboarding ski
and all that it's very social sport to an extent
because you ride chairlifts with people, especially if you're a single.
So I met a couple different people on the chairlifts,
but I kept so many details to myself because I
didn't want to advertise that I'm a solo female, like
(10:20):
staying in a camper van by myself, Like, I didn't
want to advertise that. So it was weird because I
feel like I could have easily made friends and hung
out with people yep, But I just I don't know.
I'm at like this age where like it's not that
big of a deal to me. Afterwards, I went into
the Nordic Spo. I felt a little bit like the
creep because I literally went into every different songa they
had because they have multiple ones. They have a steam room,
(10:40):
they've got a pool, they've got a cold plunge, they've
got a jacuzi. I went into everything except for the
jacuzie because it was at capacity and you had to
wait in a line in the pool to get into
the jacuzzi. I was like, I'm not doing this shit.
So at one point in the pool, I was just
in there because it was heated, and they did have
kind of a few jets here and there, so I
just kind of stand in front of the jets.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
But these people were playing.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Volleyball and this guy I could tell he was like
maybe trying to hit on me, but he was just
being friendly and social.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
He's like, do you want to hop in?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
And I was like I'm good, Like I just kind
of want to. I'm just here to relax.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
He's like, oh, were you out there today? Because I
think a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Of people in the up literally just go up to
use the Nordic Spa because like tons of people knew
each other. They put a ton of money into the
Nordic Spa because they weren't getting a lot.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Of people to come to Mala Bohemia.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And like the Nordic Spa is like the same price
as a lift ticket for the day, but if you
get a lift ticket, you get access to the Nordics
n nice, okay, And same with the season pass, which
is one hundred bucks gives you access to the spot,
like I said earlier.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
So it was weird because like normal Jenny probably would have.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Been like, yeah, I'll play volleyball, like kind of jump
in and make friends, but I just sort of kept myself.
But that I felt a little bit like a creep
because I was just like listening to conversations watching people.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah I was.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I was just watching people and kind of like not
trying to make eye contact with anyone. So they didn't
think I was like watching them, but like one Saana
looked right into the pool and I definitely was like
I wonder if they're dating, I wonder what they do.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
I want to you know, like I.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Started making up stories and head and stuff, so Anyways,
it was fun. I told Fallen that this sounds super cheesy, corny, whatever,
but it was very empowering to do and just know
that I can take the van and honestly, like we
haven't done that extreme of a van trip ever, Like
we haven't gone in cold weather where we needed to
(12:18):
run the heater all night. So I'm just proud of
myself that a B I was capable of making food. See,
I do think I might have burned one of Andrew's
nice camping pots because I tried to heat up some
pasta over this little fire thing, and I don't think
I was supposed to do that, So he's not gonna
be happy with me about that.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
We'll see.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
But yeah, it was really fun and I also just
loved that it was all on my time. It was
I never felt like I was inconveniencing anyone because I
wanted to pull over and look at this cute little
like overlook of Lake.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Superior or something. You know.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yes, so yeah, highly recommend taking a trip by yourself
at some point in your life, even if it's just
like a day capable.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I agree. I did in like twenty seventeen, I went
to Austin Texas by myself, and it's weird. It is
weird to like, at the end of the day you
go back, you don't have anyone to talk to at dinner,
you don't have anyone to talk to, breakfast, all the things.
And I mean, I don't know that I would do
(13:19):
it all the time, but it was nice to have
done it because it was abnormal and I wasn't trying
to make friends, So I wasn't like chatting with I
might have like a random conversation, but I wasn't trying
to make friends, you know for sure. So I agree
it's there are like and there are obviously less dangerous
ones to do. I was not dangerous at all. I
(13:41):
was Austin, Texas, you know what I mean. I went
to a spa and then I went to like the
main strip and it was, yeah, very fun and calm.
But also so I went to a baby shower this
weekend and they were having the girls were having interesting conversation.
If you and Andrew got married, would you change your
last name or no.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I've always said I wouldn't because I think it's an
archaic tradition. But I'm all for it if other people
do it. That's like totally up to you.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
But I also don't love my last name.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Lutenberger is very clonky and German, and that's great and everything,
but like, but also, Andrew's last name is Newton, so
that like, I go from like this clonky name that's
unique to this common as fuck name.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah, you know what I mean. So I don't know. Honestly.
It was so interesting because there were so many different
women at this event and hearing like most of them
did not take their partner's last name. Huh, and same
kind of thought. They're like their One girl was like,
his name was Johnson, no f and way am I
(14:48):
changing my name to Johnson? So she actually proposed that
they both change their last name to something different that
they would like, and they took his middle name and
made it both of their last names interesting and the
parents then they said his parents didn't care. Yeah, And
then another girl said that she just did like the
(15:09):
like hyphen but no hyphen, so it's just like back
to back kind of right and it works. And then
another girl was like, no, his last name was so hideous,
like I would never take I have a very cool
last name. Two people their husbands took their last names
because they liked them better. Yeah, And I was like,
what a like just diverse group of people. I feel
(15:30):
like it's so common still for most people to just
take their husband's name, some to hyphen eate, and some
to just keep. But I thought it was interesting the
change up of names. That is interesting.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I also will say that, like, when you think about it,
if you do it in the way of like why
would I take a male's last name, like this is
my name? Well, I mean we did take our father's
last name too, so we did kind of already.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Like take a male's last name, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
So it's kind of like it just goes back farther
and further to like knowing that we did take a
man's last name at some point in our life and
there's nothing wrong with any of that. But I kind
of like never thought about that argument before, and I've
heard I've started to kind of hear that now of
when people are like, I'm not why can't the guy
take my last name? And I don't give a shit
about any of that. I just think it's a matter
of like what you want to do?
Speaker 1 (16:18):
You do you, baby? I did it. I changed my
name to Jake's, simply because I thought it would be
easier once we had Olive to just have the same
last name, even like when we were traveling in the
beginning and stuff. It's I mean, I have the same
last name as Dylan my step sow, which is nice,
like it makes it all just easier, but it is
an annoying task to do. It's not easy to change
(16:40):
your name. They make it seemingly make it as difficult
quote unquote easy as possible. So that's kind of frustrating.
But then there were people that were saying also with
having kids, a lot of dads and families put weird
pressure on them like hope you have a boy, you're
the last hope to carry on the name or whatever,
(17:03):
and they're.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Like, what the hell that was That kind of the
one thing I feel like with our family is the
Lutenberger side is all girls much so there's like, I
am bonset right, bad name. So our family name is
kind of starting to die off a ton too. And
so it's kind of sad to think about that because
my sister took my sister and all the female cousins
have taken the male's last name of their like their
(17:26):
husbands whatever, and the rest are all females except for
one cousin is a male, and honestly, I don't think
he'll ever get married. Yeah, so I just don't know
that his name will go on for him. But it
is interesting because it's like, well, what about the female's
last name, Like their name could end as well, and
(17:47):
also like the female.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Could carry on I don't know. So I thought it
was just like interesting, yeah, because the female can carry
on the name as well, of course, and maybe she
doesn't change her name in the future. I don't know,
but I thought that was like kind of a funny conversation.
And some girls, so like the parents said it on
like one of their first couple of times meeting the parents.
I'm like, all right, calm down with that pressure, ye
(18:10):
get back a notch. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
We So there's a podcast I listened to called The
Brilliant Idiots and they do a segment towards the end
of it every week called ask an Idiot. So it's
just like people that are tweeting at them or dming
them or.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
And I feel like we still have so many amas
like ask me anything email too.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Did you see this Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
If I had it, but I was trying to think of,
like what we would call our question section if we
had it, because there's this called ask an Idiot because
they're called the Brilliant Idiots.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
I'm Still Fun.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
You know what I did want to talk about though.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Before we maybe get into question slash email, the juxtaposition
of what the old podcast name used to be to
what this podcast name is. So you started too Lame
for Radio with Mike the old web Guy turned into me,
you and Tina, and then just Tina and I and
now this one with us too is called I'm Still Fun.
And I just was thinking how funny it is that
(19:05):
it used to be too Lame for radio and then
now it's I'm Still Fun. I don't know. I was
a random thought that came when I was driving nine
hours this weekend.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
And I wanted to bring it up. It is bizarre, honestly,
and also now for I was going to say, it's
not important, but oh, if we had a name, I
don't know what would it be.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
I had, I've sprung it on you. So I didn't
think of anything. And I've been thinking about this question
since I heard their segment again, but.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
What do we both have in common? Both have big boobs,
so it could be hoots something with hoots. Okay, questions questions,
so the Q is silent. It starts with an age
for hoots. Nope, nope, final, we're still workshop like that.
I don't like them. Can cans candid questions? Nope, could
(19:57):
be can't can?
Speaker 2 (19:58):
What's another Peaches? Peaches is butt tittaes We're gonna have
to use chatchy.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
BT yeah boo. By the way, yesterday, I'm getting in
the shower, all in the bathtub and she's like, Mom,
well I have big boobs like you one day and
I was like, oh god, I go well, I don't
know if they'll be like mine. People have different sized boobs.
Yours will get bigger than they currently are. And she's like,
I hope I have big boobs like you. And I
(20:26):
was like, oh my god. She says things just because
to get a laugh already, like she knows she's not
supposed to say stuff like that. Yeah, but I also
don't care. She knows she does how to perform. Jake
is way more strict on like private part talk than
I am. He's like, that is not acceptable, blah blah blah.
I'm always like kind of funny though some of it.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
I remember asking my mom when I was little what
it felt like to have boobs, and she goes, oh,
you have a butt, don't you? And I go, yeah,
she goes, that's what I feel like have boobs, and
I go really like.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I just thought it was going to be such a
different answer, crazy. Yeah, okay, well maybe someone else can
help us top with that. You have an idea, you
let us know. This is the email we got Falon
and Jenny. First, Oh, she didn't send it to you.
That's why. First one to say, I really appreciate y'all
making this podcast happen. I look forward to it tuesdays
because of it. It's like having best friends I get
(21:19):
to be with, but they don't hear me in a
non toxic way. Ha ha. I wanted to write in
and get your input on what the hell I should
do for my thirtieth birthday. It's in early February, and
I just feel pressure to celebrate this milestone. And I
do want to celebrate this milestone. But here are some
of my dilemmas. It's fucking cold out. I always hated
this about my February birthday and despy summer birthdays. No,
(21:40):
I do not do outdoor activities in the winter, so
that's out everything. I mean, everything is so damn expensive now.
I feel bad dragging people out to pay for something
like a drag show or even getting dinner, because damn
it's hard to want to feel celebrated but not break
people's banks. All of my friends have jobs that don't
give us the luxury to save up and spend bit.
I feel weird always asking people to want to hang
(22:03):
out for my birthday, as if it's another obligation someone
has to go to. I know that that's just my
insecurities and mental health getting in the way, but it
does feel like a burden sometimes. I don't know if
that makes sense. I guess if you have any recommendations
of fun places maybe that aren't expensive around Minneapolis. I
like fun drinks, I like most foods, I like different experiences.
I'm into weird shit too, haha. So whatever you have
(22:24):
to throw at me, I have a couple of ideas. Okay,
number one, we can just agree that, yes, that is
just like your own insecurity. Every I think everyone feels weird.
There are the people that are like, it's my birthday
month and blah blah blah blah blah, and they don't
feel weird and they're like, you will be celebrating me,
and that's fine. There's a place for those people. And
(22:45):
then there are people who do feel weird, Like I
feel weird having like inviting like six friends to a
dinner for my birthday makes me for my one I had,
like last year was a bigger one. I was like,
come if you want, but I'm doing something. But like,
I had a dinner I think the year before, and
I was like, it's not having a special birthday, it's
like should I? And I was like, I don't care.
I don't get my feelings hurt. If people can't come,
I think is the thing. So as long as you
(23:05):
don't get your feelings hurt of people are like, hey,
it's not in my budget right now to drop one
hundred dollars on dinner. Fine. So my two suggestions are
you could do if you don't want to make people
go out to dinner, you could do this thing. I
saw someone on social media do and it was funny,
but she had everyone come to her house and they
(23:26):
each had to door dash thirty dollars worth of food
to the house, and no one knew what the other
person people were ordering, so you could have ended up
ordering the same thing. And it was so funny. It
created this like funny buffet of weird ass foods, and
so I thought that was a really fun idea. That's
a good idea. The other one is there's this place
(23:46):
I saved a very long time ago. It is not Minneapolis.
I think it's in Roseville. And if you could imagine
back in the day, you might be too young if
you're thirty, the Chino Latino Vibes where it was a
kind of a party. There is a place in Roseville,
and I actually think I saw it on Tina's Instagram
stories and I was like, where is that. It's called
(24:06):
like Meto or Mito. It's m I t O and
it's where they bring elaborate drinks and they have sparklers
and different things. You can look up their Instagram. I
have never been, so I don't want to like, but
but Tina said, always an experience, like it's kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Oh yeah, you wouldn't be surprised by the fact that
my friends like Coyote and all them go there and
like party, but it's like it kind of gives like
tulum vibes of like just.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Partying on an island. And they come home and she said,
she's like big into freaky stuff or into fun stuff.
So you know, Okay.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
The only thing I can think of, and this is
a very specific thing, but I saved it for myself
is there's a girl at Helen and I know who's
like a travel influencer, and she had a bunch of
girlfriends over and they all did like an in home piercing.
So some woman who certified to do like ear piercings
came over and they all got an ear piercene together
and it was just like a fun like hang sesshon.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
And then would not do that. By the way, if
you were like I'm having everyone get piercings, I'm like, oh, come,
but I'm not getting a fucking piercing.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Well, you wouldn't have to get a piercing like That's why.
That's why it's like a good idea, Like this is
so specific. But maybe there's something that you've always wanted
to do that doesn't cost a ton of money that
maybe some of your friends want to.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Do like anal bleaching.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
You know, what is this Kardashians. Didn't Chloe do that
to Courtney one time or vice versa.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
I think it's something with Maybe I think they did.
But listen, if you and your friends are into that,
go for it, baby, I don't. That's definitely something I
would not trust my friends with.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
But or well, you would forget professional. I was thinking.
I was thinking. I was still thinking Kardashians style anal bleaching, right,
I thought, you mean that's fair? Then I was extra crazy.
But that's fun.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Board nights are fun where everyone brings a different kind
of board, a charcuterie board, a fruit board, a cupcake,
a dessert board, a dip board. Like that's always fun too.
But yeah, you know, having a winter birthday is difficult,
like actually get obviously, because it's not like you can
be like, all right, let's just all meet at this
patio at a brewery and we'll have a bunch of
(26:05):
space and we can have a beer.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Like it's just a little bit different. It is.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
You can still go to breweries and have a great time.
You just got to be inside and it might be
busy and you might not have a ton of room.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
So don't do that. Well, that's true, that's true. Let
me know if you need any suggestions for breweries.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Yeah, let me be a list. Okay, well we can
do a few more ams. These are still from before
Christmas that we have questions.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
As people for sending so many whiles. Yeah, so many.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
So this one says tips for motivating yourself to exercise
when you're first getting started slash.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Hate the gym. I think we did this a little bit.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
I think ready we did and Yourself and your Body
is kind of the one we did. But I would say,
like the thing with it is always like it takes
a certain amount of weeks to get into a routine.
Once you start to get into a routine, it just
becomes like your mindset is like, hey, I got to
get this workout in today. It's not like, oh, maybe
i'll work out today, maybe I won't. It's like, okay,
(27:05):
today I'm working out. So that's kind of one of them.
And the only other thing I'll say is it has
to do with like mel Robbin's like five second rule.
You count down to five, you a five, four, three
two one, and you make your decision and you go
so personally, I've tried it. It doesn't always work for me,
but I just know that if I start driving towards
the gym and I physically get there, I will work
(27:26):
out and I'll have a decent workout. Yeah, it's just
I really really think for me, the hardest part.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Is getting to the gym and being there. Agreed, I
think it's also finding They always say it's fine something
you like, Well, that's true, but also I think it's
not forcing yourself to do like a sixty minute class.
I think sixty minute sounds intimidating. Yep, some days you're
going to have that in you and you're like, hell yeah.
But a lot of days I'm like, I'll do a
(27:54):
twenty minute thing. I mean, when I do pilates, they
are always fifty minutes, and that's pretty much the main
thing I do. But I mean, I would say go
that helps me stay motivated, because if I'm like, I
don't fucking want to go sweat for sixty minutes, I'll
immediately talk myself out of it. But if I'm like,
it's twenty minutes, bitch, you can like even scroll on
your phone while you're on the bike, then I'll go
down and do it.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
That's what I did last night. I mean, I literally
was driving all day yesterday coming back from Michigan, and
I was watching the football game. So I'm like, okay,
I'm going to just like walk on the walking pad
I have because I've been sitting on my ass in
a car for however many hours. And then I also
wanted to prepare this like Instagram post I wanted to
do today, and then all of a sudden, I look
and it's been thirty minutes because I was on the
(28:37):
phone watching the Super or like the playoff game whatever,
and I barely even thought of it because I was
just watching walking and doing things at the same time.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
So I don't know. Hopefully that'll help you. I like
this next question.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
It says how long did it take for you to
to quote click and become BFFs.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
I don't remember. I think maybe you have a better memory.
I do not. I have my memory. I can tell
you today. My memory is getting worse and worse, where
I forget even the first time meeting people. It definitely
was later because we had a whole run where Jenny
was an intern. She left. When she came back, she
went to Cities she came on our show. None of
(29:14):
that time we were best friends by any means. We were,
like especially the intern phase, I was friends with all
the interns and we I even hung out with some
of them. I don't know that I hung out with
you though, No, I well, nope, we did.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
We did a lake patrol together one time, and then
I think you had had a first date with someone
that night, and then you met us out in uptown.
Like I was out drinking with some people and you
met us out in Uptown that night or so, Okay, yeah,
So I think that's the only time outside of like
maybe work events when I was an intern. But so
(29:49):
this is what I remember when I started on the show.
I mean I was in a different studio than Fallon
and Steven Dave and stuff, and so I feel like
it took a little while for me and Fallin to
get on a level where we started sharing more like
personal stuff outside of work stuff. And I mean we
do share a lot of personal shit on the radio,
so it's not like we.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Didn't know a lot about each other.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
We did, but to get like more personal and start
sharing this stuff that didn't make it to the radio,
I really feel like It probably took like a yearish,
but then the first moment I remember feeling like, wow,
I think we're actually becoming really good friends. It was
you had gotten upset. I think it was one of
the first times you were hanging out with Jake and
(30:29):
you were triggered by something and you got upset and
you called me crying, and I like calmed you down,
and then you called Jake back because he had left
your house or something, and then he ended up coming
back over and everything was fine and you guys were
good and everything that you were feeling was warranted from whatever. Yeah,
but I remember getting off the phone with you and
(30:50):
I was like, oh my god, she loves me.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
She called me to cry too. I would say, yeah, that,
like that is a trust circle moment. Yeah, for sure.
And I do remember that Jake and I had I
think two issues early on that we cleared out of
the way very quickly. And the first one, I won't
(31:15):
get into details, but like I didn't like something and
I shut down. We were supposed to go do a
second part of the date, and I was like, Okay,
I'm ready to go home, and he's like, what the
fuck happened? Like he was like, okay, he took me
home and then he said he wouldn't that's kind of shit,
would piss him off if someone did that, and he
would be like screw him. But he's like, I don't
know why. Like I just was like, so he called
(31:38):
me and he's like can what did I do? Yeah?
And so I told him and he's like, well, can
I come back over? And I was like yeah, and
then he explained it. So I was just being a
little immature, shut down person and he was like being mature,
like what did I do? Can we to discuss it?
And then it was very easily solved. Yeah, it was
(31:59):
meeting dramatic no surprise. Yeah, and yeah, so I do
remember that. Yeah, we are at time. Oh okay, cool, Well,
don't worry, We've still got more fun. Listen.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
If you have any suggestions for what we can call
this kind of like end of the podcast, maybe we
can end with some questions every time, because honestly, I
still have like five slides worth of questions from the
ones in Christmas. And it's fun because I feel like,
you know, like there's probably questions you might have about
us that we don't necessarily think. We think that you
know everything about us and you don't, so it's fun
(32:31):
to answer questions or just anything you might want an
answer to you about life because we are.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
We are like coaches now. We are we are We
did it online course. Yes, yeah, we are on the
coaches now. Please believe us, thank you and send us money. Okay,
have a great week. Let's buy
We Oh sorry, Jenny, I started before you even turned
your microphone around with Heather, that one that's not on now?
Can you hear me? So professional? It's a professional podcast. Welcome.
I'm still fun podcasts. I think we broke one of
the microphones in here, but we I mean me and Colt,
(00:21):
all three of us. You were in here when it
was I walked in when the debacle was happening and
colds like, oh no, they're gon need appliers, and you
were like last and never came back. I know, like, okay,
so tis another week. Thanks for dealing with us last
week as we had a late episode, but we made it.
(00:44):
We made it. It's funny because we both were just
talking like off the podcast about having that kind of
groundhog feeling life, and I do feel like January is
a ground Hog's day month. And for some reason, I've
seen everyone posting memes and I agree with it. It
feels like this month has been going on forever. Last
(01:06):
week alone, to me, felt like the longest short week
I have ever had. It was four days that felt
like four months. To me.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
It didn't feel like a four day week. You're right,
I don't know what it was about it.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I know one thing on my end was we Cult
I picked up a syndicated show, so there was extra work,
especially when you're learning something new, and we had never
done a syndicated show before, so there's a lot of
extra work that goes into it. So I know that
that's the reason why I felt because it was like
day one, I was frustrated. I don't like when I
(01:40):
don't know how to do something. Day two still frustrated.
Day three a lot less frustrated. I was more optimistic.
Day four vibin which if you don't know what syndicated means, yeah,
I should clear that up. Probably, I was gonna say,
because I was probably in radio for a year or
two and people would drop that and I was like,
I don't really get what that means. Learn because there
(02:01):
are different things in radio. So Cult and Vaunt both
do this program, and I won't get into the technicality
of it, but they basically are on lots of other stations,
and they are recording radio content that is unique to
those stations. That's different, but syndicated. It's kind of like
(02:25):
Ryan Seacrest on KATIEWB. You know he's not in Minnesota,
you know he's in LA. They take his show, they
condense it down and then they air it on stations
all across the country. That's syndication. So they are doing
that with Colt and I. This is like our first market.
We announced it last week, Salt Lake City. But they're
(02:46):
taking our afternoon show, condensing it and putting it on
nights there. So it's not but it's not they, it's us.
We're condensing it. So we have to like take our
breaks and short like edit them down and record some
new stuff and put it in right so that it's
localized to Salt Lake to a degree.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Which I just want to say for those that are
listening in that this is actually like such a big
deal and I'm so happy for you guys, because you know,
there aren't a ton of syndicated shows across the nation.
It's really only the really good ones. So just know
that you guys are crushing it, and I'm so happy
for you.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Jenny. Yeah, it's it's one of those where, like you
know how they say that you reach a goal and
then you don't really take the time to celebrate it
because you're onto the next thing. Yeah, that's what my
problem is.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
So I and also I'm a negative person, so instead
of being like, oh this is I was so excited
for like two days. Yeah, and then I was like, oh,
this is more work. Well do it's more work? Yeah,
But I also feel like a little stretch than in
general when it comes to work. And then even though
Colt is honestly doing the majority of the actual work
(04:00):
to make life easier for me, but it is I'm
trying to let it slowly sink in that, like, this
is very cool and it can lead to like more syndication,
which is cool. Yeah, because a lot of you know,
the shows I look up to, they are syndicated, and
I've always thought, oh, that's so cool. Right, Typically those
(04:21):
shows have someone an extra person. They usually have about
ten people the producer who does that extra work. So
maybe one day, if we get in multiple markets, maybe
we'll have someone that can do that for us. But
right now, it's like, you know how it goes. You
got to put in the work up front to get
to that point at some point, hopefully right and that's
just part of it.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
You got to you gotta get your name out there.
There is one show that I know, it's two brothers
that are syndicated, and I think when they started it
was just the two of them, and now they have
like a third if not another producer okay on their show.
Maybe I'm wrong about that, but they at least have
three people, okay. So there's hope.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
There's hope. There's hope for that's good. How now, I
didn't know. We talked last week a little bit about
you potentially doing a trip this weekend, but you had
said the last we spoke was that your boyfriend Andrew
actually suggested you not do it because he did not
think it would be safe for you. So imagine my
surprise when I text Jenny Saturday night and I was
(05:19):
being a bitch. I texted her not to me, No,
I was doing something I don't even like, but I
was so bored or sitting on the couch, and I
texted something gossipy to Jenny, and I even at the
end of it was like, I'm done with this. I okay, gross.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
But also, anyone listening, don't act like you don't text
your best friend's gossipy shit. You know you do.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So I sent her like a little dash of gossip
and I kind of maybe you took a minute to
respond but I don't know. I wasn't really paying attention
because Jake and I were doing something. But anyway, you responded,
You're like, I'm up here. I don't know if my
service works. I'm like what you went? And I was like,
you need to text me tomorrow that you're alive, which
I did. Yeah, you did. I got a text that
just said alive. So you a skiing trip by yourself? Yeah,
(06:02):
and it's a long drive. It is a long drive.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I went up to Mount Bohemia, which is in the
up of Michigan pretty much all the way to the
tippy tippy top is where it is, and I went
to go snowboarding because Andrew and I bought season passes
for Mount Bohemia. It's the only season pass we got
this year. It literally is one hundred bucks and it
includes access to a Nordic spa and you can sleep
in their parking lot. So all of the stars kind
(06:24):
of aligned with that situation for us, even though it's
a bit of a drive. But you also don't really
want to go to Mount Bohemia unless they've had snow,
and so it was supposed to snow this weekend and
I have very few weekends available in the next like
two months, while snowboarding seasedon is upon us. So I
was like, I just got to go. And Andrew left
for a snowboarding trip that he takes every year with
(06:45):
a bunch of buddies. He left for that on Saturday night,
so he couldn't come, and I'm like, I'm just going
to do it. And we had talked previously. He wasn't
really sure that I should go by myself because it
is extreme skiing at mom Bohemia. It's all black diamonds
and higher which I know you might not know that
there's triple black diamonds, but there are, and so it
(07:07):
is like pretty extreme. So that was the part that
I was the most gutched outa at not going in
the van by myself. I was like, I don't want
to hurt myself skiing or snowboarding. I can't drive back, right,
had so many different factors, so of course, I like
took it decently easy, Like I mean, I still hit
some tree runs, went a little too fast, a couple spots,
(07:27):
took a couple of falls here and there, which is normal.
You like aren't having fun if you're not falling when
you snowboard. But yeah, I went up there, and for
safety purposes, I really didn't tell like anyone. I didn't
post on social media that I was up there. I
had texted Fallon because since she had texted me to
let her know, but Andrew had me share my location
with him, and then I was going to call my
(07:49):
mom and tell.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Her, let's share your location with me. What's Andrew going
to do. Andrew's on a trip across the country. I'm
the one that's going to have to get in at
my mid toub she drive eight to ten hours to
come save you. That is true. I should have shared it.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I should have shared it with someone else, but I
like was just trying to be respectful of like my
mom and my sisters because I was going to at
least tell my older sister Rachel, and I just like
didn't want to stress anyone out, so I just like
only kept it to Andrew. And then there's some health
issues going on with one of my cousins, so my
sisters were texting and I text them back. Very minimal
(08:22):
service up there, so it was hard to like even text.
I had no social media access really anyways, unless I
was in the main part where like you get your ticket,
your lift ticket there.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That's nice, though it's like a forced break.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yes, it was so incredibly nice. I still did, like,
you know, took videos and took pictures and stuff to
post on social media afterwards. But it was great because
it was like I kind of edited a couple things
together when I was by the Wi Fi, but outside
of that, I didn't look at anyone's social media.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Oh that's a lie. Let me show you something.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
So Friday night, I like get in. I didn't get
into like eleven thirty almost because a they're an hour ahead,
and be it took like nine hours versus the seven
it should have because of snow and I.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Stopped and whatever.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
So I get up there and I'm like, oh, I'm
gonna see if I have service. And I go to
Instagram of course right away, and the first thing that
pops up is, of course Falin. So I'm like, well,
what she got on her story? And so I click
it and this is what it froze on.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
To me with my mouth just gaping. Oh god, it
was just like the funniest freeze. One of her eyes
is half open.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
It looks like, yeah, she looks a little drunk almost that,
but I screen shotted it because I waited a good
fifteen seconds till I was like, yeah, I'm not gonna
have service, and I watched it like hoping I could
see what foul was talking about, but I just screenshotted
it so I could show you.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That's beautiful. I love it. But that's one of the
things I've said before that I like about National Parks
is there's no service, and then so it's a it's
a break, like I'm not in the car even tempted
to look at social media. I'm truly looking at.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
My Yeah, And I guess like the interesting part I
was kind of texting feltin about this is snowboarding ski
and all that it's very social sport to an extent
because you ride chairlifts with people, especially if you're a single.
So I met a couple different people on the chairlifts,
but I kept so many details to myself because I
didn't want to advertise that I'm a solo female, like
(10:20):
staying in a camper van by myself, Like, I didn't
want to advertise that. So it was weird because I
feel like I could have easily made friends and hung
out with people yep, But I just I don't know.
I'm at like this age where like it's not that
big of a deal to me. Afterwards, I went into
the Nordic Spo. I felt a little bit like the
creep because I literally went into every different songa they
had because they have multiple ones. They have a steam room,
(10:40):
they've got a pool, they've got a cold plunge, they've
got a jacuzi. I went into everything except for the
jacuzie because it was at capacity and you had to
wait in a line in the pool to get into
the jacuzzi. I was like, I'm not doing this shit.
So at one point in the pool, I was just
in there because it was heated, and they did have
kind of a few jets here and there, so I
just kind of stand in front of the jets.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
But these people were playing.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Volleyball and this guy I could tell he was like
maybe trying to hit on me, but he was just
being friendly and social.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
He's like, do you want to hop in?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
And I was like I'm good, Like I just kind
of want to. I'm just here to relax.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
He's like, oh, were you out there today? Because I
think a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Of people in the up literally just go up to
use the Nordic Spa because like tons of people knew
each other. They put a ton of money into the
Nordic Spa because they weren't getting a lot.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Of people to come to Mala Bohemia.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And like the Nordic Spa is like the same price
as a lift ticket for the day, but if you
get a lift ticket, you get access to the Nordics
n nice, okay, And same with the season pass, which
is one hundred bucks gives you access to the spot,
like I said earlier.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
So it was weird because like normal Jenny probably would have.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Been like, yeah, I'll play volleyball, like kind of jump
in and make friends, but I just sort of kept myself.
But that I felt a little bit like a creep
because I was just like listening to conversations watching people.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah I was.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I was just watching people and kind of like not
trying to make eye contact with anyone. So they didn't
think I was like watching them, but like one Saana
looked right into the pool and I definitely was like
I wonder if they're dating, I wonder what they do.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
I want to you know, like I.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Started making up stories and head and stuff, so Anyways,
it was fun. I told Fallen that this sounds super cheesy, corny, whatever,
but it was very empowering to do and just know
that I can take the van and honestly, like we
haven't done that extreme of a van trip ever, Like
we haven't gone in cold weather where we needed to
(12:18):
run the heater all night. So I'm just proud of
myself that a B I was capable of making food. See,
I do think I might have burned one of Andrew's
nice camping pots because I tried to heat up some
pasta over this little fire thing, and I don't think
I was supposed to do that, So he's not gonna
be happy with me about that.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
We'll see.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
But yeah, it was really fun and I also just
loved that it was all on my time. It was
I never felt like I was inconveniencing anyone because I
wanted to pull over and look at this cute little
like overlook of Lake.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Superior or something. You know.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yes, so yeah, highly recommend taking a trip by yourself
at some point in your life, even if it's just
like a day capable.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I agree. I did in like twenty seventeen, I went
to Austin Texas by myself, and it's weird. It is
weird to like, at the end of the day you
go back, you don't have anyone to talk to at dinner,
you don't have anyone to talk to, breakfast, all the things.
And I mean, I don't know that I would do
(13:19):
it all the time, but it was nice to have
done it because it was abnormal and I wasn't trying
to make friends, So I wasn't like chatting with I
might have like a random conversation, but I wasn't trying
to make friends, you know for sure. So I agree
it's there are like and there are obviously less dangerous
ones to do. I was not dangerous at all. I
(13:41):
was Austin, Texas, you know what I mean. I went
to a spa and then I went to like the
main strip and it was, yeah, very fun and calm.
But also so I went to a baby shower this
weekend and they were having the girls were having interesting conversation.
If you and Andrew got married, would you change your
last name or no.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I've always said I wouldn't because I think it's an
archaic tradition. But I'm all for it if other people
do it. That's like totally up to you.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
But I also don't love my last name.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Lutenberger is very clonky and German, and that's great and everything,
but like, but also, Andrew's last name is Newton, so
that like, I go from like this clonky name that's
unique to this common as fuck name.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah, you know what I mean. So I don't know. Honestly.
It was so interesting because there were so many different
women at this event and hearing like most of them
did not take their partner's last name. Huh, and same
kind of thought. They're like their One girl was like,
his name was Johnson, no f and way am I
(14:48):
changing my name to Johnson? So she actually proposed that
they both change their last name to something different that
they would like, and they took his middle name and
made it both of their last names interesting and the
parents then they said his parents didn't care. Yeah, And
then another girl said that she just did like the
(15:09):
like hyphen but no hyphen, so it's just like back
to back kind of right and it works. And then
another girl was like, no, his last name was so hideous,
like I would never take I have a very cool
last name. Two people their husbands took their last names
because they liked them better. Yeah, And I was like,
what a like just diverse group of people. I feel
(15:30):
like it's so common still for most people to just
take their husband's name, some to hyphen eate, and some
to just keep. But I thought it was interesting the
change up of names. That is interesting.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I also will say that, like, when you think about it,
if you do it in the way of like why
would I take a male's last name, like this is
my name? Well, I mean we did take our father's
last name too, so we did kind of already.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Like take a male's last name, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
So it's kind of like it just goes back farther
and further to like knowing that we did take a
man's last name at some point in our life and
there's nothing wrong with any of that. But I kind
of like never thought about that argument before, and I've
heard I've started to kind of hear that now of
when people are like, I'm not why can't the guy
take my last name? And I don't give a shit
about any of that. I just think it's a matter
of like what you want to do?
Speaker 1 (16:18):
You do you, baby? I did it. I changed my
name to Jake's, simply because I thought it would be
easier once we had Olive to just have the same
last name, even like when we were traveling in the
beginning and stuff. It's I mean, I have the same
last name as Dylan my step sow, which is nice,
like it makes it all just easier, but it is
an annoying task to do. It's not easy to change
(16:40):
your name. They make it seemingly make it as difficult
quote unquote easy as possible. So that's kind of frustrating.
But then there were people that were saying also with
having kids, a lot of dads and families put weird
pressure on them like hope you have a boy, you're
the last hope to carry on the name or whatever,
(17:03):
and they're.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Like, what the hell that was That kind of the
one thing I feel like with our family is the
Lutenberger side is all girls much so there's like, I
am bonset right, bad name. So our family name is
kind of starting to die off a ton too. And
so it's kind of sad to think about that because
my sister took my sister and all the female cousins
have taken the male's last name of their like their
(17:26):
husbands whatever, and the rest are all females except for
one cousin is a male, and honestly, I don't think
he'll ever get married. Yeah, so I just don't know
that his name will go on for him. But it
is interesting because it's like, well, what about the female's
last name, Like their name could end as well, and
(17:47):
also like the female.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Could carry on I don't know. So I thought it
was just like interesting, yeah, because the female can carry
on the name as well, of course, and maybe she
doesn't change her name in the future. I don't know,
but I thought that was like kind of a funny conversation.
And some girls, so like the parents said it on
like one of their first couple of times meeting the parents.
I'm like, all right, calm down with that pressure, ye
(18:10):
get back a notch. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
We So there's a podcast I listened to called The
Brilliant Idiots and they do a segment towards the end
of it every week called ask an Idiot. So it's
just like people that are tweeting at them or dming
them or.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
And I feel like we still have so many amas
like ask me anything email too.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Did you see this Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
If I had it, but I was trying to think of,
like what we would call our question section if we
had it, because there's this called ask an Idiot because
they're called the Brilliant Idiots.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
I'm Still Fun.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
You know what I did want to talk about though.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Before we maybe get into question slash email, the juxtaposition
of what the old podcast name used to be to
what this podcast name is. So you started too Lame
for Radio with Mike the old web Guy turned into me,
you and Tina, and then just Tina and I and
now this one with us too is called I'm Still Fun.
And I just was thinking how funny it is that
(19:05):
it used to be too Lame for radio and then
now it's I'm Still Fun. I don't know. I was
a random thought that came when I was driving nine
hours this weekend.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
And I wanted to bring it up. It is bizarre, honestly,
and also now for I was going to say, it's
not important, but oh, if we had a name, I
don't know what would it be.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
I had, I've sprung it on you. So I didn't
think of anything. And I've been thinking about this question
since I heard their segment again, but.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
What do we both have in common? Both have big boobs,
so it could be hoots something with hoots. Okay, questions questions,
so the Q is silent. It starts with an age
for hoots. Nope, nope, final, we're still workshop like that.
I don't like them. Can cans candid questions? Nope, could
(19:57):
be can't can?
Speaker 2 (19:58):
What's another Peaches? Peaches is butt tittaes We're gonna have
to use chatchy.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
BT yeah boo. By the way, yesterday, I'm getting in
the shower, all in the bathtub and she's like, Mom,
well I have big boobs like you one day and
I was like, oh god, I go well, I don't
know if they'll be like mine. People have different sized boobs.
Yours will get bigger than they currently are. And she's like,
I hope I have big boobs like you. And I
(20:26):
was like, oh my god. She says things just because
to get a laugh already, like she knows she's not
supposed to say stuff like that. Yeah, but I also
don't care. She knows she does how to perform. Jake
is way more strict on like private part talk than
I am. He's like, that is not acceptable, blah blah blah.
I'm always like kind of funny though some of it.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
I remember asking my mom when I was little what
it felt like to have boobs, and she goes, oh,
you have a butt, don't you? And I go, yeah,
she goes, that's what I feel like have boobs, and
I go really like.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I just thought it was going to be such a
different answer, crazy. Yeah, okay, well maybe someone else can
help us top with that. You have an idea, you
let us know. This is the email we got Falon
and Jenny. First, Oh, she didn't send it to you.
That's why. First one to say, I really appreciate y'all
making this podcast happen. I look forward to it tuesdays
because of it. It's like having best friends I get
(21:19):
to be with, but they don't hear me in a
non toxic way. Ha ha. I wanted to write in
and get your input on what the hell I should
do for my thirtieth birthday. It's in early February, and
I just feel pressure to celebrate this milestone. And I
do want to celebrate this milestone. But here are some
of my dilemmas. It's fucking cold out. I always hated
this about my February birthday and despy summer birthdays. No,
(21:40):
I do not do outdoor activities in the winter, so
that's out everything. I mean, everything is so damn expensive now.
I feel bad dragging people out to pay for something
like a drag show or even getting dinner, because damn
it's hard to want to feel celebrated but not break
people's banks. All of my friends have jobs that don't
give us the luxury to save up and spend bit.
I feel weird always asking people to want to hang
(22:03):
out for my birthday, as if it's another obligation someone
has to go to. I know that that's just my
insecurities and mental health getting in the way, but it
does feel like a burden sometimes. I don't know if
that makes sense. I guess if you have any recommendations
of fun places maybe that aren't expensive around Minneapolis. I
like fun drinks, I like most foods, I like different experiences.
I'm into weird shit too, haha. So whatever you have
(22:24):
to throw at me, I have a couple of ideas. Okay,
number one, we can just agree that, yes, that is
just like your own insecurity. Every I think everyone feels weird.
There are the people that are like, it's my birthday
month and blah blah blah blah blah, and they don't
feel weird and they're like, you will be celebrating me,
and that's fine. There's a place for those people. And
(22:45):
then there are people who do feel weird, Like I
feel weird having like inviting like six friends to a
dinner for my birthday makes me for my one I had,
like last year was a bigger one. I was like,
come if you want, but I'm doing something. But like,
I had a dinner I think the year before, and
I was like, it's not having a special birthday, it's
like should I? And I was like, I don't care.
I don't get my feelings hurt. If people can't come,
I think is the thing. So as long as you
(23:05):
don't get your feelings hurt of people are like, hey,
it's not in my budget right now to drop one
hundred dollars on dinner. Fine. So my two suggestions are
you could do if you don't want to make people
go out to dinner, you could do this thing. I
saw someone on social media do and it was funny,
but she had everyone come to her house and they
(23:26):
each had to door dash thirty dollars worth of food
to the house, and no one knew what the other
person people were ordering, so you could have ended up
ordering the same thing. And it was so funny. It
created this like funny buffet of weird ass foods, and
so I thought that was a really fun idea. That's
a good idea. The other one is there's this place
(23:46):
I saved a very long time ago. It is not Minneapolis.
I think it's in Roseville. And if you could imagine
back in the day, you might be too young if
you're thirty, the Chino Latino Vibes where it was a
kind of a party. There is a place in Roseville,
and I actually think I saw it on Tina's Instagram
stories and I was like, where is that. It's called
(24:06):
like Meto or Mito. It's m I t O and
it's where they bring elaborate drinks and they have sparklers
and different things. You can look up their Instagram. I
have never been, so I don't want to like, but
but Tina said, always an experience, like it's kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Oh yeah, you wouldn't be surprised by the fact that
my friends like Coyote and all them go there and
like party, but it's like it kind of gives like
tulum vibes of like just.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Partying on an island. And they come home and she said,
she's like big into freaky stuff or into fun stuff.
So you know, Okay.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
The only thing I can think of, and this is
a very specific thing, but I saved it for myself
is there's a girl at Helen and I know who's
like a travel influencer, and she had a bunch of
girlfriends over and they all did like an in home piercing.
So some woman who certified to do like ear piercings
came over and they all got an ear piercene together
and it was just like a fun like hang sesshon.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
And then would not do that. By the way, if
you were like I'm having everyone get piercings, I'm like, oh, come,
but I'm not getting a fucking piercing.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Well, you wouldn't have to get a piercing like That's why.
That's why it's like a good idea, Like this is
so specific. But maybe there's something that you've always wanted
to do that doesn't cost a ton of money that
maybe some of your friends want to.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
Do like anal bleaching.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
You know, what is this Kardashians. Didn't Chloe do that
to Courtney one time or vice versa.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
I think it's something with Maybe I think they did.
But listen, if you and your friends are into that,
go for it, baby, I don't. That's definitely something I
would not trust my friends with.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
But or well, you would forget professional. I was thinking.
I was thinking. I was still thinking Kardashians style anal bleaching, right,
I thought, you mean that's fair? Then I was extra crazy.
But that's fun.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Board nights are fun where everyone brings a different kind
of board, a charcuterie board, a fruit board, a cupcake,
a dessert board, a dip board. Like that's always fun too.
But yeah, you know, having a winter birthday is difficult,
like actually get obviously, because it's not like you can
be like, all right, let's just all meet at this
patio at a brewery and we'll have a bunch of
(26:05):
space and we can have a beer.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Like it's just a little bit different. It is.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
You can still go to breweries and have a great time.
You just got to be inside and it might be
busy and you might not have a ton of room.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
So don't do that. Well, that's true, that's true. Let
me know if you need any suggestions for breweries.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
Yeah, let me be a list. Okay, well we can
do a few more ams. These are still from before
Christmas that we have questions.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
As people for sending so many whiles. Yeah, so many.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
So this one says tips for motivating yourself to exercise
when you're first getting started slash.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Hate the gym. I think we did this a little bit.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
I think ready we did and Yourself and your Body
is kind of the one we did. But I would say,
like the thing with it is always like it takes
a certain amount of weeks to get into a routine.
Once you start to get into a routine, it just
becomes like your mindset is like, hey, I got to
get this workout in today. It's not like, oh, maybe
i'll work out today, maybe I won't. It's like, okay,
(27:05):
today I'm working out. So that's kind of one of them.
And the only other thing I'll say is it has
to do with like mel Robbin's like five second rule.
You count down to five, you a five, four, three
two one, and you make your decision and you go
so personally, I've tried it. It doesn't always work for me,
but I just know that if I start driving towards
the gym and I physically get there, I will work
(27:26):
out and I'll have a decent workout. Yeah, it's just
I really really think for me, the hardest part.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Is getting to the gym and being there. Agreed, I
think it's also finding They always say it's fine something
you like, Well, that's true, but also I think it's
not forcing yourself to do like a sixty minute class.
I think sixty minute sounds intimidating. Yep, some days you're
going to have that in you and you're like, hell yeah.
But a lot of days I'm like, I'll do a
(27:54):
twenty minute thing. I mean, when I do pilates, they
are always fifty minutes, and that's pretty much the main
thing I do. But I mean, I would say go
that helps me stay motivated, because if I'm like, I
don't fucking want to go sweat for sixty minutes, I'll
immediately talk myself out of it. But if I'm like,
it's twenty minutes, bitch, you can like even scroll on
your phone while you're on the bike, then I'll go
down and do it.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
That's what I did last night. I mean, I literally
was driving all day yesterday coming back from Michigan, and
I was watching the football game. So I'm like, okay,
I'm going to just like walk on the walking pad
I have because I've been sitting on my ass in
a car for however many hours. And then I also
wanted to prepare this like Instagram post I wanted to
do today, and then all of a sudden, I look
and it's been thirty minutes because I was on the
(28:37):
phone watching the Super or like the playoff game whatever,
and I barely even thought of it because I was
just watching walking and doing things at the same time.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
So I don't know. Hopefully that'll help you. I like
this next question.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
It says how long did it take for you to
to quote click and become BFFs.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
I don't remember. I think maybe you have a better memory.
I do not. I have my memory. I can tell
you today. My memory is getting worse and worse, where
I forget even the first time meeting people. It definitely
was later because we had a whole run where Jenny
was an intern. She left. When she came back, she
went to Cities she came on our show. None of
(29:14):
that time we were best friends by any means. We were,
like especially the intern phase, I was friends with all
the interns and we I even hung out with some
of them. I don't know that I hung out with
you though, No, I well, nope, we did.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
We did a lake patrol together one time, and then
I think you had had a first date with someone
that night, and then you met us out in uptown.
Like I was out drinking with some people and you
met us out in Uptown that night or so, Okay, yeah,
So I think that's the only time outside of like
maybe work events when I was an intern. But so
(29:49):
this is what I remember when I started on the show.
I mean I was in a different studio than Fallon
and Steven Dave and stuff, and so I feel like
it took a little while for me and Fallin to
get on a level where we started sharing more like
personal stuff outside of work stuff. And I mean we
do share a lot of personal shit on the radio,
so it's not like we.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Didn't know a lot about each other.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
We did, but to get like more personal and start
sharing this stuff that didn't make it to the radio,
I really feel like It probably took like a yearish,
but then the first moment I remember feeling like, wow,
I think we're actually becoming really good friends. It was
you had gotten upset. I think it was one of
the first times you were hanging out with Jake and
(30:29):
you were triggered by something and you got upset and
you called me crying, and I like calmed you down,
and then you called Jake back because he had left
your house or something, and then he ended up coming
back over and everything was fine and you guys were
good and everything that you were feeling was warranted from whatever. Yeah,
but I remember getting off the phone with you and
(30:50):
I was like, oh my god, she loves me.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
She called me to cry too. I would say, yeah, that,
like that is a trust circle moment. Yeah, for sure.
And I do remember that Jake and I had I
think two issues early on that we cleared out of
the way very quickly. And the first one, I won't
(31:15):
get into details, but like I didn't like something and
I shut down. We were supposed to go do a
second part of the date, and I was like, Okay,
I'm ready to go home, and he's like, what the
fuck happened? Like he was like, okay, he took me
home and then he said he wouldn't that's kind of shit,
would piss him off if someone did that, and he
would be like screw him. But he's like, I don't
know why. Like I just was like, so he called
(31:38):
me and he's like can what did I do? Yeah?
And so I told him and he's like, well, can
I come back over? And I was like yeah, and
then he explained it. So I was just being a
little immature, shut down person and he was like being mature,
like what did I do? Can we to discuss it?
And then it was very easily solved. Yeah, it was
(31:59):
meeting dramatic no surprise. Yeah, and yeah, so I do
remember that. Yeah, we are at time. Oh okay, cool, Well,
don't worry, We've still got more fun. Listen.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
If you have any suggestions for what we can call
this kind of like end of the podcast, maybe we
can end with some questions every time, because honestly, I
still have like five slides worth of questions from the
ones in Christmas. And it's fun because I feel like,
you know, like there's probably questions you might have about
us that we don't necessarily think. We think that you
know everything about us and you don't, so it's fun
(32:31):
to answer questions or just anything you might want an
answer to you about life because we are.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
We are like coaches now. We are we are We
did it online course. Yes, yeah, we are on the
coaches now. Please believe us, thank you and send us money. Okay,
have a great week. Let's buy
