- 0:00Speaker 1: By the way I made that beef stew that I
- 0:01had for dinner last night. I thought, I haven't had
- 0:05beef stew forever and ever and ever. I would love
- 0:08to have beef stew. So I said, you guys, mind
- 0:11if I make beef stew, No, go ahead, make beef.
- 0:13I made the beef stew. I was eating it and
- 0:16it was fine, but I just kept saying, you know,
- 0:20I don't really think I like beef stew as much
- 0:22as I.
- 0:23Speaker 2: Maybe you don't like the way you make beef stew.
- 0:26Maybe there's a beef stew out there.
- 0:28Speaker 1: That I don't know. Well, I mean, I've I made
- 0:31it the way I used to make it. I don't know. Anyway.
- 0:35Let's move on to City Weekly, the long time alternative,
- 0:43and they've outlasted all the others there used to be
- 0:48there so many of them. I can't remember the other
- 0:50one that was that was sort.
- 0:51Speaker 2: Of Grid magazine.
- 0:53Speaker 3: You say, I can't forget Grid, the one that we
- 0:55tried to start.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Damn. What was the other one that it did pretty well? Yeah? Uh?
- 1:01And then there was there was As a matter of fact,
- 1:04they pay tribute to catalysts in this in this best
- 1:08of City Week a Catalyst as well, to say the
- 1:12City Weekly Hall of Fame, and they mentioned Catalyst magazine.
- 1:17They say, uh, well, we're we it was our sister magazine.
- 1:23We liked what they did and it was you know,
- 1:25it was kind of sad to see it go.
- 1:27Speaker 2: Best of Utah is an addition you should get and
- 1:31as we have, keep it around. Here's the one from
- 1:34last year, last year. But it's a great resource, particularly
- 1:40for things like, ah, we want to go to dinner,
- 1:42but we want to go someplace we haven't been to.
- 1:45We haven't been to. You go to the City Weekly.
- 1:47Oh we want to take a hike, a new hike.
- 1:50We are on a because it's not just food. I
- 1:52mean there's a lot of food and drinking here, but
- 1:54there's all kinds.
- 1:54Speaker 1: Of others, you know, who the best, So they picked
- 1:57us the best TV anchor Carrie Kronk last last Yeah,
- 2:03they mentioned that. They say she's she's moved to Australia apparently. Really, yeah,
- 2:07that's what it says here. But she she's been around
- 2:11a long time and you know, you couldn't ask for
- 2:15a nicer, lovelier person.
- 2:17Speaker 2: She was so scary, what.
- 2:19Speaker 1: A nice person. And then another thing I thought was
- 2:23interesting best Utah uh, post Malone, So I assume there's
- 2:30going to be a ceremony.

- 2:33Speaker 1: My sash, my best I was best Uton on last week.

- 2:40call up John and pass on the John and Pete.
- 2:44John and Pete then that you need to hand over
- 2:46your sash to post Malone.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Yeah, there should be a ceremony, just we have posted
- 2:49here in the in the studio, and just a brief ceremony,
- 2:52he'd have We'll get some chicken.
- 2:56Speaker 2: He likes chicken.
- 2:57Speaker 1: I know he does. But then let's see best Radio Show.
- 3:03I like the way they did this. It says what
- 3:07can we what can we say about radio from Hell?
- 3:12Best radio Show? Dominant in this award category since Bill Allread,
- 3:17Gino Barbari, Kerry Jackson first came to into their own
- 3:21in the mid nineties.
- 3:23Speaker 2: It was way before that.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Well, but we sort of came into our own. We
- 3:28started before that, but it was really.
- 3:30Speaker 2: The I joined you in the mid nineteen.
- 3:33Speaker 1: Well, and that's when we hit our stride. Gina. You
- 3:36were I see, you were just rather than misunderstanding what
- 3:39they wrote, you were trying to be trying to be Yeah, yeah,
- 3:49it says they were. The reigning champions have practically owned
- 3:54our readership vote ever since they started. They are one
- 3:57of the few local shows that it doesn't seem like
- 4:00a pre programmed morning zoo. Let's be honest, whenever the
- 4:05show comes to an end, we're probably going to rename
- 4:10this award after them. Oh hm, that'd be nice. That
- 4:15is nice. That is nicely they put it so. It
- 4:17would be the the Radio from Hell Memorial Best Radio
- 4:22Show Award. That's that's an awful big plaque, the Radio
- 4:25from Hell Best Radio Show Award. It's like five dollars.
- 4:29Speaker 3: For every letter.

- 4:39they are currently a mix of classic hits and defiant
- 4:42source of rock music as well as newer tunes from
- 4:44thus trying to redefine the genre. Few others have earned
- 4:48the loyalty of their listeners to blast Nirvana, followed by
- 4:51Dexter and The Moon Rocks out of their stereo daily.
- 4:55Speaker 1: I really I haven't gotten to. I haven't really gotten
- 5:00to many of the other ones. Anything else that stood
- 5:03out to you? You know what were you?
