0:04
Speaker 2: Friday too, which I love anyway, Welcome in.
0:08
Speaker 1: Thank you for joining.
0:09
Speaker 2: If it's your first time hearing the after Show podcast,
0:12
Speaker 2: which could be likely because I got a good plug
0:15
Speaker 2: in for this little podcast during the show This Morning
0:19
Speaker 2: Billy has a list of the top podcasts of the year,
0:22
Speaker 2: you know, Joe Rogan, Mel Robbins, the Kelsey Brothers, and
0:27
Speaker 2: you know, I was like, hey, what about the after
0:29
Speaker 2: show podcast? So maybe some people heard it, and maybe
0:31
Speaker 2: they're joining for the first time.
0:33
Speaker 1: Welcome in.
0:33
Speaker 2: I do this podcast five days a week after the
0:37
Speaker 2: billion leads a show, and you know, it's a behind
0:39
Speaker 2: the scenes look slash my life, slash my thoughts, things
0:45
Speaker 2: that I think about, things that I want to share.
0:47
Speaker 2: It's basically like a confessional some days, but other days
0:50
Speaker 2: it's kind of like behind the scenes stuff.
0:52
Speaker 1: So yeah, welcome Okay, Like, I totally get that ad
0:57
Speaker 1: to pay you guys, but.
1:00
Speaker 3: At least on Spotify, there are so many commercials just
1:05
Speaker 3: within the fifteen minute broadcare and I'm just complaining to
1:10
Speaker 3: could play honestly, because I know there's nothing you can do.
1:14
Speaker 2: But yeah, no, you can complain all you want that
1:16
Speaker 2: this is a this is a safe space. Okay, you
1:19
Speaker 2: can leave a talk back. You can say anything you
1:20
Speaker 2: want and I'll play it. I mean, unless you're like
1:23
Speaker 2: swearing and yelling or whatever. But I never get any
1:25
Speaker 2: of those. But yeah, the commercials things, this thing is tough.
1:28
Speaker 2: And again, yeah, like you said, I have no control
1:30
Speaker 2: over that. I know, there's a lot of.
1:32
Speaker 1: Commercials because well, I have to put them in.
1:36
Speaker 2: You know, there's a there's a thing that stopped when
1:39
Speaker 2: I load the podcast. I have to fulfill depending on
1:43
Speaker 2: how long it is a certain amount. I think it's
1:45
Speaker 2: only it's probably a couple she say, three and fifteen minutes.
1:49
Speaker 2: That's tough, but I have to like put them in.
1:51
Speaker 2: They're just little markers. I don't like to see what
1:53
Speaker 2: the commercial is, but it's little markers in the podcast
1:55
Speaker 2: or it won't let me publish it.
1:58
Speaker 1: So I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
1:59
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, And this goes to anybody finding the podcast.
2:02
Speaker 2: I do apologize. There's really nothing I can do. You know,
2:06
Speaker 2: there's commercials and radio, I know, and kind of podcasts
2:09
Speaker 2: has kind of not taken over radio, but is definitely
2:12
Speaker 2: competing with it, especially in our company. You know, iHeartMedia
2:16
Speaker 2: is number one in podcasts, so they have all the
2:18
Speaker 2: radio and then they have podcasts, and the podcast revenue
2:22
Speaker 2: is making it more than the radio, which is crazy. Well,
2:27
Speaker 2: a lot of times they'll sell radio advertising and then
2:29
Speaker 2: digital as well.
2:31
Speaker 1: But I'm sorry about the commercials. I really am.
2:33
Speaker 2: I trust me. I know I'm a listener too, like
2:35
Speaker 2: I listen to things too. I get annoyed by commercials.
2:39
Speaker 2: But if you can look past that, then I am here,
2:42
Speaker 2: and what you get here is magic.
2:45
Speaker 1: I think. I don't know. It's definitely behind the scenes. Look, oh, Justin.
2:48
Speaker 3: I love how you always tell us that with the
2:51
Speaker 3: after show we get all the juice in the behind
2:54
Speaker 3: the scenes. And then today Ashley comes in and says
2:58
Speaker 3: that she wants to gossip, and it's like we're all
3:00
Speaker 3: hanging on, like, oh, what's the gossip? What's the gossip?
3:03
Speaker 2: The show in Yeah, I actually sent that talk back
3:06
Speaker 2: to Ashley. That's so funny. I'm sorry. It's not my fault,
3:09
Speaker 2: that's her fault. We had to go and I'm trying
3:12
Speaker 2: to think of what the gossip was. I'm being honest,
3:15
Speaker 2: I don't really really remember. It wasn't anything super juicy.
3:18
Speaker 2: I think it was about Oh, it was about the
3:21
Speaker 2: meetings that we had, the research meetings. It was Yeah,
3:23
Speaker 2: it wasn't anything crazy. I would well, I'm not going
3:26
Speaker 2: to give up things that I shouldn't give up. But
3:28
Speaker 2: I don't think it was anything like super juicy. And
3:32
Speaker 2: I'm being honest about that. It was I could I think,
3:34
Speaker 2: I yeah, I could tell you what it was, but
3:36
Speaker 2: it wouldn't make any sense to you because you don't
3:38
Speaker 2: know the people that were in the meetings doing the meetings,
3:41
Speaker 2: if that makes sense. And it wasn't anything bad at all.
3:44
Speaker 2: So yeah, we had their meetings yesterday which went well.
3:48
Speaker 2: They went well, and they are important.
3:52
Speaker 1: Okay, they're important. I understand.
3:54
Speaker 2: This is a big radio program on a big radio station.
3:58
Speaker 2: They invest a lot of money into this station, into
4:01
Speaker 2: this morning show because it generates a lot of money.
4:03
Speaker 2: So we have to do things like this. We have
4:05
Speaker 2: to have research and focus groups and kind of you know,
4:09
Speaker 2: make sure we're on the right path. And they're all
4:12
Speaker 2: good things. They're basically they're not things that we need
4:14
Speaker 2: to change. They're things that we need to tweak, you know,
4:18
Speaker 2: little things. So basically what they do is they get
4:24
Speaker 2: have focus groups, and they will submit audio of the
4:27
Speaker 2: show to the group, right, and so they'll do things
4:30
Speaker 2: like what's called a dial test. Well, they'll play the
4:33
Speaker 2: segment and then people that are listening, okay, from all
4:37
Speaker 2: different demographics. These are people that listen to Kiss One Away,
4:40
Speaker 2: These are people that listen to other radio stations. These
4:42
Speaker 2: are people that have never listened to our morning show.
4:44
Speaker 2: It varies, and so they have a little it's called
4:46
Speaker 2: a dial test, and they have to like press a
4:48
Speaker 2: button when they don't want to hear it anymore. So
4:51
Speaker 2: you can see during the segment, in this case a
4:54
Speaker 2: topic time where people dropped off, and then they ask them, hey,
4:57
Speaker 2: why did you press the button? Why did you not
5:00
Speaker 2: want to hear any more of the segment? And then
5:01
Speaker 2: they explained and it shows on this big graph. It's
5:04
Speaker 2: really super interesting. So our boss decides which segment to submit,
5:12
Speaker 2: and he submitted one. You might remember it. It's from
5:16
Speaker 2: a while ago, several months ago. It was the craziest
5:19
Speaker 2: thing you've ever heard on a first date or said
5:22
Speaker 2: on a first date, And it was actually one of
5:26
Speaker 2: our funniest and that's what our boss said. He goes
5:28
Speaker 2: it was laugh out loud funny, but it was edgy, right,
5:32
Speaker 2: it was edgy. It went over the line a little bit,
5:34
Speaker 2: and that's why people were tuning out, you know, when
5:37
Speaker 2: it gets to like sniffing panties was a part of it,
5:40
Speaker 2: nipples were a part of it. It was just too
5:42
Speaker 2: much for these people. Now, the people that did not
5:47
Speaker 2: press the button were people that listened to Billy and
5:50
Speaker 2: Lisa in the morning. They understand the show. The tough
5:53
Speaker 2: part is it was the people that listened to other
5:56
Speaker 2: radio stations or aren't really familiar, you know, they don't
5:59
Speaker 2: know who we are, they don't know our characters, they
6:01
Speaker 2: don't really know about the talkbacks. So when they hear
6:04
Speaker 2: something that kind of is like want sniffing panties, which
6:07
Speaker 2: by the way, was a talkbacker that I think that
6:08
Speaker 2: said that, they don't like it and they tune out.
6:10
Speaker 2: You know, So we need to it's the line. We
6:13
Speaker 2: need to walk the line, but not cross it. And
6:16
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that we did cross it. We got
6:18
Speaker 2: pretty close on that segment, but it was fucking hilarious.
6:23
Speaker 2: And that's my thing. Okay, that's my thing. It's all
6:26
Speaker 2: about walking the line. But if we just do a
6:29
Speaker 2: radio show that's like blah blah blah blah blah, and
6:32
Speaker 2: it's just like cookie cutter. I know we do a
6:34
Speaker 2: lot of like station business and music. We are a
6:38
Speaker 2: music station, and I think it's important to own that.
6:41
Speaker 2: But I also think that we need to push the
6:43
Speaker 2: boundaries sometimes. And when I say we, I mean me
6:48
Speaker 2: because it's the clips that I play. If I take
6:50
Speaker 2: Lisa out of context, if I have I play a
6:53
Speaker 2: Billy rant, or if Billy goes on a rant live,
6:56
Speaker 2: you know, push the boundary a little bit. So people
6:59
Speaker 2: are like, oh my god, laughing out loud. I think
7:01
Speaker 2: that's what makes our show so unique, and it's tough
7:06
Speaker 2: to see, you know, people tuning out. So then they
7:09
Speaker 2: ask what do they what do you think about each
7:13
Speaker 2: person on the show, including producer Riley. They included her too,
7:17
Speaker 2: so Billy, Lisa, and myself and those were all all good.
7:21
Speaker 2: Those were all good. One bad one for me was well,
7:26
Speaker 2: the one bad one for Billy was that Billy is misogynistic.
7:31
Speaker 2: And again somebody that doesn't listen to the show, and
7:34
Speaker 2: it was likely me playing a clip. Everything falls on me,
7:37
Speaker 2: is what I'm saying. Okay, it's my fault and I
7:40
Speaker 2: own that and I will I will die on that hill. Okay,
7:44
Speaker 2: it is me. It's not Billy and Lisa that are
7:46
Speaker 2: pushing it over the edge. It's me playing like a
7:48
Speaker 2: Billy clip that's older or taken out a context, or
7:51
Speaker 2: Lisa clip. And then my bad one was they didn't
7:55
Speaker 2: like when I made fun of the team. When they
7:57
Speaker 2: say team, I mean Billy because I'm don't make fun
8:00
Speaker 2: of Lisa. I make fun of Billy. That's just what
8:02
Speaker 2: I do. And it can come off as mean. And
8:06
Speaker 2: I don't think a mean to Billy's of my best friends.
8:09
Speaker 2: It's all in good fun, but I guess it can
8:11
Speaker 2: be taken out of context. So I'm just telling you
8:15
Speaker 2: this to give you an idea of what we had
8:17
Speaker 2: to sit through for two hours is seeing people talk
8:21
Speaker 2: about the show, about the product that you deliver every
8:25
Speaker 2: single day, and about your character, your persona you. I
8:30
Speaker 2: will say that there were some things that I did
8:33
Speaker 2: not agree with, And again this is the tough thing
8:36
Speaker 2: going back to. These are people that don't listen to
8:38
Speaker 2: the show. Some do, some don't. Some are like hardcore listeners.
8:43
Speaker 2: But like one person said, oh yeah, I want to
8:46
Speaker 2: hear more of Justin and I'm like, no, I feel
8:50
Speaker 2: like they should be telling me to talk less, not
8:53
Speaker 2: talk more. I talk enough. And I said it to
8:55
Speaker 2: my boss after. I'm like, I don't agree with that
8:57
Speaker 2: now that I don't like talking. I just think that
9:00
Speaker 2: that observation. I feel like I talk enough. I should
9:03
Speaker 2: say that. I don't think I talk too much. I
9:04
Speaker 2: think I talk enough. And I've explained this whole thing before.
9:07
Speaker 2: I'm not going to explain it again about why I
9:09
Speaker 2: talk as much as I do. But you know, I
9:12
Speaker 2: want to hear more of justin. That's flattering and that's good.
9:16
Speaker 2: But I'm like, are they listening to the show because
9:18
Speaker 2: I feel I'm going to talk a little too much
9:20
Speaker 2: or you know, as much as I should. So that
9:23
Speaker 2: was one Some good news, okay, is the two highest
9:29
Speaker 2: features now features are things like entertainment. These are news,
9:34
Speaker 2: topic time, reeler, fake headlines, the wrap up. Those are
9:39
Speaker 2: our main features, that's what they call those. They test
9:43
Speaker 2: them all, Okay, they test not just features from this station,
9:47
Speaker 2: but all the stations in Boston, Okay, And the two
9:51
Speaker 2: features that tested highest were the ones that I do. Now,
9:57
Speaker 2: this is a great thing, obviously, I'm very proud of that.
10:00
Speaker 2: Real or fake headlines pretty much test it as the
10:03
Speaker 2: number one feature in the city in Boston. And I
10:08
Speaker 2: believe that because you know, I created that segment. I
10:11
Speaker 2: host that segment, I produce it, I come up with
10:14
Speaker 2: all the stories. It's my segment. And that's what they said.
10:17
Speaker 2: They like, we want you to put your name on it.
10:18
Speaker 2: That's your thing. But it's something that everyone can play
10:21
Speaker 2: along with. And that's what I think makes it fun.
10:23
Speaker 2: It's not so much it's not that I host it.
10:26
Speaker 2: It's about the stories. And I'll always say that, you know,
10:28
Speaker 2: I make it a game between Billy and Lisa, but
10:30
Speaker 2: it's just the craziest headlines and I throw a fake
10:34
Speaker 2: one in there or two, and then I just it's
10:37
Speaker 2: really about finding these crazy stories that are real. That's
10:41
Speaker 2: why it's so great, because you're thinking to yourself, is
10:44
Speaker 2: that real or fake?
10:45
Speaker 1: It could be real? What is it?
10:47
Speaker 2: And then you find out it's real and then I
10:49
Speaker 2: give you the story and I give you audio. See
10:53
Speaker 2: that is what separates to me this show from other shows,
10:57
Speaker 2: because I have that rule, right, mister audio. I always
11:00
Speaker 2: want audio to go around to go along with a story.
11:04
Speaker 2: I will not There are plenty plenty of real headlines
11:08
Speaker 2: that are out of this world. I will not use
11:10
Speaker 2: it if I cannot find audio with it. I would
11:13
Speaker 2: rather find a story that's not as crazy, still crazy,
11:16
Speaker 2: but not as crazy, and have audio attached with it
11:19
Speaker 2: because we are audio.
11:20
Speaker 1: People are listening.
11:21
Speaker 2: They're not watching in real time, they're listening, so I
11:24
Speaker 2: want to It's theater of the mind, you know. And again,
11:27
Speaker 2: like I said earlier, I'll die on that hill. So
11:29
Speaker 2: real fake headlines tested super high. And then also the
11:34
Speaker 2: wrap up. I looked at my boss and I'm like,
11:37
Speaker 2: the wrap up, dude, the wrap up tested super high
11:42
Speaker 2: right after really fake headlines. And that's another one that's
11:46
Speaker 2: wild to me, because I mean, it's fun, I just
11:49
Speaker 2: recap the show. But I think it's also the audio.
11:53
Speaker 2: My boss said the same thing. It's because you know,
11:55
Speaker 2: you tune in late and you find out what happened.
11:59
Speaker 2: If you miss the show, you can find out all
12:01
Speaker 2: the highlights at nine forty every day with audio to
12:05
Speaker 2: go along with it, you know. So that's the importance
12:08
Speaker 2: of the audio part. But I was super surprised. So basically,
12:11
Speaker 2: those are two of the biggest changes they want us
12:13
Speaker 2: to make, is they want really fake headlines with Justin
12:17
Speaker 2: and the wrap up with Justin, and they tied it
12:21
Speaker 2: in along with the talk more. But I'm like, I'm
12:23
Speaker 2: already talking. I hostpose both the segments. I invented both
12:29
Speaker 2: of those segments. I think I'm talking enough, and I
12:31
Speaker 2: can't get by that. And again I have to wrap
12:34
Speaker 2: my head around this is probably a person that doesn't
12:37
Speaker 2: listen all the time. They were just listening, you know,
12:40
Speaker 2: because they were paid to be in a focus group.
12:42
Speaker 2: You know, they're participating, but they're not listening to our show.
12:46
Speaker 2: They probably heard that one heard me kind of, you know,
12:48
Speaker 2: because they heard probably heard talkbacks a lot Billy Lisa talkbacks.
12:52
Speaker 1: And they heard me too. And we're like, hey, I
12:54
Speaker 1: want to hear more of Justin. It's weird.
12:56
Speaker 2: Riley. Producer Riley. They tested her name, came back very
13:00
Speaker 2: very strong. People again wanted to hear more of Riley.
13:03
Speaker 2: They liked when she jumped in. They they liked how.
13:08
Speaker 1: She jumps in.
13:09
Speaker 2: And that's the important part because you know, she's the
13:12
Speaker 2: producer on the show, so she is running the board,
13:14
Speaker 2: she is there, she has a microphone, but her microphone
13:17
Speaker 2: is not on. We go to her, which is I
13:20
Speaker 2: think what's made a huge difference in the show. I
13:23
Speaker 2: definitely do not no, not attacking anybody else, you know
13:26
Speaker 2: what I mean, Like when he used to.
13:27
Speaker 1: Have that job.
13:27
Speaker 2: She was a co host of the show. It was
13:29
Speaker 2: the four of us, but could have been too many mics.
13:33
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't think anybody did anything wrong.
13:35
Speaker 2: No one did anything wrong, per se. I just think
13:37
Speaker 2: the company saw that and saw the way the show
13:39
Speaker 2: was and thought it needed to change, you know what
13:42
Speaker 2: I mean.
13:42
Speaker 1: I don't know.
13:43
Speaker 2: That's just my thoughts on it. But producer Riley does
13:46
Speaker 2: not speak all the time. She is not a co
13:48
Speaker 2: host of the show, you know, so when people kind
13:51
Speaker 2: of get confused on that, like oh hey you got
13:54
Speaker 2: rid Hervey, you got Riley, And.
13:55
Speaker 1: That's not how it is.
13:56
Speaker 2: She is a producer on the show, but she is
13:58
Speaker 2: welcome to speak any times as she wants. But she
14:01
Speaker 2: just signals. So that's how it works. Either sometimes I'll
14:04
Speaker 2: just go to her about something if it naturally comes up,
14:06
Speaker 2: It'll be like Riley, what do you think about that?
14:08
Speaker 2: Or if she has something that she wants to add
14:10
Speaker 2: that she thinks it'll be good. She has free rein
14:12
Speaker 2: to kind of we have a signal and then I'll
14:14
Speaker 2: go to her. So that's how it works. So there's
14:16
Speaker 2: not too many mics going on at once and saying
14:18
Speaker 2: crazy stuff and getting off track. That was a big
14:21
Speaker 2: problem that we had on the show, is getting off track.
14:25
Speaker 2: And they actually complimented on us this time, you know,
14:28
Speaker 2: because we've made a lot of changes to the show,
14:30
Speaker 2: especially in the past year, so it's a lot different
14:33
Speaker 2: than the research last year. They were very complimentary about
14:38
Speaker 2: staying on track. You know, radio is a tough thing.
14:40
Speaker 2: If you listen to the podcast, you know, you're listening
14:43
Speaker 2: straight through. That's different than people that are listening on
14:45
Speaker 2: their radio that are just popping in and out. You know,
14:48
Speaker 2: so many people are popping in like on their way
14:50
Speaker 2: to work, so they listen from like six thirty to seven, right,
14:53
Speaker 2: or eight to eight thirty, Like if you're a teacher
14:55
Speaker 2: or a nurse, just that short window of time if
14:57
Speaker 2: you turn it on, you want to be entertained and
15:00
Speaker 2: you don't want to be confused. You want to know
15:03
Speaker 2: what they're talking we're talking about, and you want us
15:05
Speaker 2: to stay on track. And we start going off about
15:08
Speaker 2: this about that, and then sometimes it's anger or yelling
15:10
Speaker 2: and screaming.
15:11
Speaker 1: Nobody wants that, man, you know.
15:14
Speaker 2: So they were complimentary on that, but overall pretty good meeting.
15:19
Speaker 1: They were very happy.
15:20
Speaker 2: Obviously, we are the number one morning show in the
15:23
Speaker 2: top demo, right people, twenty five to fifty four, number
15:26
Speaker 2: one in a women's demo. Number three with men that's
15:30
Speaker 2: another very surprising one, number three, and men like mena
15:35
Speaker 2: listening to that show. And I can tell because of
15:36
Speaker 2: the talkbacks, a lot of people like leave talkbacks, which
15:39
Speaker 2: I love. But it's all good, man, It's really all good.
15:43
Speaker 2: So thank you to all of you who listened to
15:45
Speaker 2: not just this podcast, but more importantly the Billy and
15:48
Speaker 2: Lisa show. You know, I said to my boss, I
15:51
Speaker 2: forget if I shared this or not. I think I did.
15:54
Speaker 2: At the Ariana Grande pre party, you know, he was
15:57
Speaker 2: talking about our success and I said to him, you
16:00
Speaker 2: know this, this feels so good to me, because to
16:04
Speaker 2: all of us, but specifically to me, because I put
16:07
Speaker 2: so much into the show, so much, so much thought,
16:10
Speaker 2: so much time. It is definitely a passion of mine.
16:14
Speaker 2: I love it so much, you know that. And again,
16:17
Speaker 2: I love talking on the show. That's a big part
16:19
Speaker 2: of it. But it's also the producing part of it,
16:21
Speaker 2: which Riley helps me with. It's building a show every
16:25
Speaker 2: single day that is new, and it's informative, and it's funny,
16:29
Speaker 2: and it's entertaining, and it's fast moving, and it's full
16:31
Speaker 2: of content. It's full of audio. I love that you
16:34
Speaker 2: get a little bit of everything, you know, like the
16:36
Speaker 2: Lindsay Clancy case. That's a good example. Okay, we made
16:40
Speaker 2: the decision. I made the decision actually that we are
16:42
Speaker 2: not going to talk about it on the show, but
16:44
Speaker 2: it's covered on the news, so Billy and I Billy
16:46
Speaker 2: will cover it. I'll pull the audio the update, so
16:48
Speaker 2: top of the hour you get the update on the
16:50
Speaker 2: Lindsay Clancy case. And this could be selfish of me.
16:54
Speaker 2: I just I can't do it. I don't even wanna
16:57
Speaker 2: talk about it right now. It's just so unfathomed. Oh
17:00
Speaker 2: my god, I struggle with this word. Ready, unfathomable?
17:03
Speaker 1: Is that all right? Yeah?
17:05
Speaker 2: I just can't get the thoughts out of my head. Man,
17:07
Speaker 2: I really can't. I can't get and I'm not even
17:09
Speaker 2: gonna describe it. I just can't get the acts of
17:13
Speaker 2: what occurred out of my head. And to me, it
17:16
Speaker 2: really doesn't matter and This is a personal opinion, and
17:19
Speaker 2: I would share this on the air if we decided
17:20
Speaker 2: to talk about it. It doesn't matter if she's found
17:23
Speaker 2: guilty or not. It doesn't matter if she goes to
17:25
Speaker 2: prison or to a mental institution for the rest of
17:28
Speaker 2: her life. Like, her life is over, you know, And
17:30
Speaker 2: it's sad. It's sad for those three children and her
17:34
Speaker 2: husband and her right that her life is over. She's
17:36
Speaker 2: in a wheelchair, she's paralyzed, you know. If she goes
17:39
Speaker 2: to prison, that's gonna be tough. And if she goes
17:40
Speaker 2: to a mental institution, she's not only in a wheelchair,
17:43
Speaker 2: but she has to live with what she did for
17:45
Speaker 2: the rest of her life. So there's really no winning
17:48
Speaker 2: in this case. And I know a lot of people
17:49
Speaker 2: have thoughts on that. That's just my thoughts. Okay, for
17:52
Speaker 2: the people that think that she should be found not guilty, Okay, Well,
17:54
Speaker 2: she'll go to a mental institution, possibly for the rest
17:58
Speaker 2: of her life. Even if she gets out right in
18:02
Speaker 2: decades from that place. Still she still has to live
18:06
Speaker 2: with that, and she's paralyzed, you know. So there's no
18:10
Speaker 2: winners in that case. And I just feel like covering
18:12
Speaker 2: in the news and covering the latest, keeping you updated
18:15
Speaker 2: is important. I just don't think that a discussion is needed.
18:19
Speaker 2: That's just my thoughts on it. You know, you can
18:21
Speaker 2: leave talkbacks on this if you have a different opinion.
18:23
Speaker 2: But as a parent, I know it's really hot and
18:26
Speaker 2: Ashley down the Hall, you know, Ashlely is covering it.
18:29
Speaker 2: But I feel like in her case it's a little
18:30
Speaker 2: bit different because she is a mom and she is
18:33
Speaker 2: a mom to young children, so I think it really
18:37
Speaker 2: resonates with her, and I think she does a great
18:40
Speaker 2: job of it. I've been listening to her podcast, and
18:42
Speaker 2: she does She has no one better than Ashley with
18:44
Speaker 2: connecting with people and you know, starting conversations and having
18:50
Speaker 2: these hard discussions.
18:51
Speaker 1: Not that I don't think we could do it.
18:54
Speaker 2: I just think that, you know, her doing it kind
18:55
Speaker 2: of makes sense, you know, and so she does actual
18:58
Speaker 2: breaks on like segments on it. We just do it
19:00
Speaker 2: in the news. So that's that. I hope you have
19:03
Speaker 2: a great weekend. I really do. I love everybody here.
19:05
Speaker 2: Congratulations to Sarah for Maine. I don't know if she
19:07
Speaker 2: listens to the podcast, but we give her a big
19:10
Speaker 2: shout out. She is a talk Back Mafia member. She
19:12
Speaker 2: had a baby girl. She's in the hospital. The baby's
19:15

19:18
Speaker 2: but hopefully she'll be out soon. But Sarah is an
