And this is the untold story of the women who flew in the air races of the twenty's and thirty's and want. Greetings. From the we're video 1st of all in Highland Park Illinois the oldest outdoor festival in America. And we're 25 miles north of Chicago which means we're. Looking the still. Right there. The burbs you all were in the burbs cold the sax Adirondack chairs 3 car garages sorry sorry 2 car and one virtually unused boat garages the American dream We're live in our best lives out here on the north shore of Chicago. Who else in need. At least thinks of Ferris Bueller when they think of either the Chicago suburbs or living one's best life. And who thinks that the song we're going to excerpt to summon the ghost of Ferris Bueller's past is surely . Wrong. We are at this very moment moment coming to you live precisely 1.4 miles from the house in which Ferris his best friend Cameron lay on his bed and sang. One. Was. A. Take heart Cameron America's Best Life is all around you manicured lawns bike trails Northbrook Container Store. You could fit all of Greenwich Village inside the Northbrook Container Store. And you know what if you snapped the top on correctly it would survive the apocalypse. Which is an attractive quality and I think these days on a serious and sad note we lost a hero of mine this week Anthony Bourdain Anthony Bourdain and I've read a bunch of beautiful tributes to him over the last day and a half but I I know he loves music as much as he loved food and I want to say on behalf of touring musicians everywhere Thank you Anthony for teaching us how to make the most of our nomadic existence as you're. Fired is to look beyond the backstage belly trays and get out into the communities where making music for I've met many of my dearest most inspiring best cooking friends after shows in little restaurants I might never been interested in more if not for books like Kitchen Confidential and shows like Parts Unknown Here's our tribute to you a song that you said was one of your favorites. 'd both and she will be so sad. About a half hour later he brought it up again and said to me Daddy Life is Life is life is glass. Which makes a whole lot of sense to me as fragile life is alternately transparent which is kind of what this week's song is about the social media hash tag of living my best life got stuck in my head this week in case you haven't noticed also I confess I've been reading quite a bit about the life of one Paul Rand of Fort. Seems living one's best life doesn't tend to work out well if it directly impedes others from living winners as early. As Calvin feely might say life is glass Here's a new song called The Best Life 'd. Morning . Keep your. 'd 'd seat. It must be pretty Why not. Good the button to me. Tonight. The the. Replay. Of new pretty. Good cinema best light. And newest film. Book Paul the quickest route between rich and rich just isn't always a straight line. It's true. The answer. To Will Never Be The Best not You so much broadcast was brought to you by the traveling carnival girl a sort of. Road trip that's right it's that carnival that sneaks in in the middle of the night and we've got all the rides and games you remember from childhood because we haven't replaced any of them since 974 yes there is the really long curvy slide it will take you 10 minutes to walk up the battle stairs because you're stuck behind a chubby 3 year old but it will be worth it when you get to the top lay on burlap bag and slide to the bottom and there is a ball of never literally all if only 12 feet long but if you see your head on the door on your way and you will definitely be confused and there there is the world we live in it only smells like bleach because that's better than what the bleach was cleaning. There is also dozens of fun and easy games where you can win prizes for yourself or your sweetheart who Smith the carnivals head of game Hey Michel here listen we got it all we got the darts with the balloons we got the water gun racehorse things we got that ping pong balls with the fishes Now listen people always ask me which I do use games for real at the rink and I'm going to tell you what I tell them I got to go get rich. Trish That reminds me I should probably ask are the right to say you know people always ask me that question and I'm going to tell you what I tell them I got to go.

I never paid and he never. Saw the back that he's. Lost a moment from his. Time. I never had that. They handed me. My. Plans to. Rich man's son. And a man's hand. And then it's easy to say a drunken.

Bit. Before still love us and. Thanks thanks thanks. Thanks Lydia very much. Ok I have a secret fears but. It's not a super secret though really it's a. Hold up. I'm going to act like some of the greatest 2 part singing I've ever heard my life than just go down right here and I don't particularly. Close. You want more sisters and of course we always talk about this amongst ourselves over cocktails and things like that like the sibling harmony connection is is in saying helps but I mean I know lots of siblings who don't sing like well what were you doing it obviously you've been singing together since you were very little Yeah we have I think a lot of that was due to the church we grew up going through it was all a capella singing and we didn't have any musical instruments to help us out so we had to just read the notes on the page and that's where it came from and so stay in tune on your own accord Yes it's happening to this day. Or something like that and now you've got a guitar so it's basically like the right time of the bat and we're singing about murder and yeah Jesus doesn't like murder song so. We wrote one so well maybe he's right. I think if you heard you sing he'd be like Yeah Ok. Next up so you know I got I got an email this morning. About possibly doing the song with yeah that was fun yeah this is a wild one for us that we haven't ever done before until just now so that's not you know not nerve wracking at all this is a song that well we grew up in a bluegrass family and I think that's kind of the way that we found our way to befriending Chris because we've been such a long time fans of what he does but we believe we grew up in a bluegrass family and so we listened to the music of Bill Monroe until we were absolutely sick of it and. If you could tell those 2 little redneck Alabama girls that one day they would be singing a Bill Monroe song here at this moment we would be shocked at that but we have this longtime family friend his name is Jake Landers and he's this legendary songwriter in our hometown in Muscle Shoals. Alabama and he passed away earlier this year and he wrote this song with Bill Monroe and we love it so we wanted to do it. Lawrence again did it. Take you let Mark Foley. Years.

To the summer school for that which borders. 2. I mean. That I. Call all. This stuff. Is. In the. Demo. You know c.e.o. . So please welcome our traveling correspondent comedian Tom Papa. In the flesh yes it's nice to be here in the flesh normally report from somewhere out in America true but. But today you have something special for us you you have a new book just come out hope yes I wrote a book a real book and it's what I figure it is the answer is readers that's probably yeah . Right remember books. It's number it's number one it's the number one new release and family humor on Amazon Yes Aleisha Yes very exciting thank you thank you. It's it's all about families and I figure as a comedian I've been watching all of your families for over 20 years and I decided to write about them and it's called your dad stole my rake. I and other family dilemmas. So read some for us sure I will read some for you tonight right here in the cold. Ok ever walked out on stage to read your book and realize that maybe drinking wine with the fans and ribbon ia might have been a mistake. I have. As we head toward summer you're probably all thinking about whether or not you should go on vacation with your family so I pulled one of the essays from the section on children it's called In Defense of family vacations. A vacation with your family can be a tough disorienting sticky exhausting irritating soul crushing ripoff but you have to do it. This is not your blissful romantic getaway this is a vacation that is made for the family not a rational adult person. You will stand in line for things you do not like pay for things you do not want and order food for people who do not eat. You will go to theme parks and eat things on sticks you will wear bathing suit in a public place for an entire day and you will swim in hotel pools next to people you would normally cross the street to avoid. You will play in the same sleep in the woods and sit on benches you will carry strollers up escalators cat carriers through security and carry everyone's luggage you will pull muscles rip shirts and pop handfuls of Advil like their popcorn but go you must This is the only chance you get to really know these people you live with. At home you don't really hang out everyone has their schedules and their work to do coming and going like bees in and out of the hive and then you wake up the 1st morning in a hotel room looking at each other really looking at each other and you realize these people are pretty weird. So this is my family you say to yourself how did we all get here look what they're doing that little one doesn't look like any of us I. As weird as it is for you it's even more bizarre for the children sure a child lives with their parents but to be this close for this long gets a little peculiar I remember sitting on a hotel bed in the morning waiting for my father to come out of his but out of the bathroom I would think what is he doing in there what's taking them so long and what are those noises it sounded like a bear rummaging through a dumpster filled with balloons I. Eventually he'd come out and announce with a snicker I wouldn't go in there if I were you I but there was nowhere else to go I would stand in the bathroom in pools of water with my eyes watering trying to brush my teeth and hold my breath at the same time thinking my God how does my mother share a bathroom with this guy. Watching your parents get dressed as weird to. It's like being backstage of a play for the 1st time it's one thing to see everybody on stage in their complete costumes but it's pretty bizarre to see your mom hopping across the floor in her underwear trying to get her foot into the leg of her jeans. Once you're through all of this though and get out of the room the rest of the hotel is pretty great what other place has a game room or better get a pool kids enter a lobby of a hotel sniffing for chlorine like a pig after truffles. I think they have a pool they have a pool and indoor pool did he say an indoor pool let's move here and live here for ever. This doesn't mean the experience will be pure joy it won't the chances of everyone in the family being in a good mood at the same time are pretty rare and at every age comes its own unique bad. Bad Attitude of course the smaller they are the more work you'll have to do 1st you have to plan the whole thing because they don't know where anything is they think New York and l.a. Are right next to each other you also have to pay for everything because they have no money or skills of any kind. For years you also have to carry everything that they own literally carry everything in a pile on your back and they climb on top of that pile like a small Peruvian lady as you walk through the airport like a mule like a human mule with canteens hitting your legs and flies in your eyes Have you ever seen a donkey with flies in his eyes and thought why doesn't he get those flies out of his eyes now I know I've seen a donkey soul. He doesn't care about the flies he's secretly hoping the fly each through his eyes and devour is the part of his brain that feels and remember. The 5 but it is your job your duty to make plans and force your family to participate the more angry they get the better do it all a tram ride up the side of a mountain a cowgirl museum with a stagecoach exhibit or a half mile walk to stare at an aircraft carrier. A teenager is never going to ask to take a ferry ride to look at the tulips at the best time to go gardens you have to do that for them. This is the stuff that will stick with them and whether they are aware of it or not will add to their experiences and their personalities turning them into good citizens of the world the family vacation truly is a must when you return as a family back from the day be sure to reward them with a swim in the indoor pool some lame hotel pizza and give them one last image that will stay in their mental scrapbook forever you drooling and snoring away in your underwear.
