Latest / Billy & Lisa in the Morning: The After Show / Join The Opposite Club...
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up, my friends. Welcome to the After Show podcast.
- 0:03Speaker 1: Thank you so much for listening, for taking the time
- 0:05Speaker 1: to open up the iHeart app or wherever you're listening
- 0:08Speaker 1: from and join this podcast. I always appreciate it so much.
- 0:12Speaker 1: I hope you enjoyed. Yesterday's podcast the longest of all time.
- 0:15Speaker 1: It was over an hour long with my buddy Allan.
- 0:19Speaker 1: I was a little nervous about having Alan on because
- 0:21Speaker 1: I love him to death. But you know, as you
- 0:23Speaker 1: if you listen to it, you would know he's a
- 0:25Speaker 1: little rough around the edges. So it was definitely a
- 0:28Speaker 1: raw podcast, which I knew that going in. But the
- 0:31Speaker 1: feedback has been great. A lot of people DM me
- 0:33Speaker 1: and you know, let me know they enjoyed it. Listen.
- 0:36Speaker 1: It's a rough listen sometimes because you know, that's where
- 0:39Speaker 1: we come from, you know. So I hope you enjoyed it.
- 0:42Speaker 1: I hope to have more guests on to talk about
- 0:45Speaker 1: different things about my life, about about whatever, you know.
- 0:50Speaker 1: I know, the Power of Recovery guys are coming in
- 0:52Speaker 1: next Tuesday. They were supposed to come in today, but
- 0:54Speaker 1: I had to bump it too next Tuesday because we
- 0:57Speaker 1: have secret sound meetings. This thing is really gearing up
- 1:00Speaker 1: and really you know, going crazy if you will. This
- 1:04Speaker 1: morning was absolutely nuts. I mean, we gave a hint
- 1:08Speaker 1: that basically gave the thing away, and the person didn't
- 1:11Speaker 1: get it, and I don't think it was their fault necessarily.
- 1:13Speaker 1: I think her name was Jessica. Jessica, if you listening
- 1:17Speaker 1: to this, by chance, we love you. I don't think
- 1:20Speaker 1: she heard the hint, because think about it, we give
- 1:23Speaker 1: the hint and then we solicit, but she was probably
- 1:25Speaker 1: already calling. I mean, right when seven o'clock or eight
- 1:28Speaker 1: o'clock hits, people start calling, the line start building up,
- 1:31Speaker 1: which is a tactic that you can do is call
- 1:34Speaker 1: and just hang up, Call, hang up, call, over and
- 1:37Speaker 1: over again. But really it only matters once we give
- 1:40Speaker 1: the phone number. Once Billy or myself gives the phone number,
- 1:44Speaker 1: the number gets read, and then our phone screener goes
- 1:46Speaker 1: through and picks the twenty fifth caller. So there's not
- 1:49Speaker 1: really it's not really a good strategy to call earlier.
- 1:51Speaker 1: But maybe she did, and I just I don't think
- 1:54Speaker 1: she heard the hint, but it made it that much
- 1:56Speaker 1: more fun, you know, and then we didn't have a winner.
- 1:59Speaker 1: So we never want to at seven, ten, and then
- 2:01Speaker 1: the a ten to one was yeah, I think it
- 2:02Speaker 1: was Jessica with the newspaper. I don't know what that was.
- 2:05Speaker 1: But I think there's gonna be a winner this afternoon.
- 2:07Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure, although I will say, you know, I
- 2:10Speaker 1: read all the talkbacks and some people, you know, everyone
- 2:15Speaker 1: says they know what it is, and some people have
- 2:16Speaker 1: even said on the talkback it is this. Nobody has
- 2:20Speaker 1: gotten in one hundred percent correct. I will say that
- 2:23Speaker 1: I have not seen anybody on the talkbacks or the
- 2:26Speaker 1: DM or in my everyday life because you know, if
- 2:29Speaker 1: I see people, they bring up the secret sound. Nobody
- 2:31Speaker 1: has guessed it. But I'm pretty confident about this afternoon.
- 2:34Speaker 1: So if there's a winner this afternoon, the jackpot will reset,
- 2:38Speaker 1: but it will reset higher. Usually resets at a thousand.
- 2:42Speaker 1: We're gonna go higher starting tomorrow morning. So I love
- 2:45Speaker 1: this game. I love playing along, and I can always
- 2:47Speaker 1: tell when it's really starting to ramp up, because that's
- 2:50Speaker 1: when people in my life, in my real life start
- 2:53Speaker 1: hitting me up. You know, people that I don't hear
- 2:55Speaker 1: from all the time. They're like, send me a text,
- 2:58Speaker 1: like hey, at work was saying, you asked what the
- 3:01Speaker 1: secret sound was can you tell me you know? And
- 3:04Speaker 1: of course I can't. I can't tell anybody what it is.
- 3:06Speaker 1: It's against the law here in the radio world. But
- 3:09Speaker 1: I love reading the talkbacks. I love getting the talkbacks.
- 3:12Speaker 1: It's so much fun. Like on the show when I say, oh,
- 3:14Speaker 1: the talkbacks are coming in hot, I'm not lying. They
- 3:17Speaker 1: really are. I read them all, just me, nobody else.
- 3:22Speaker 1: And actually, I want to talk about that for a second.
- 3:25Speaker 1: You know, the talkbacks are wide open for anybody to
- 3:28Speaker 1: leave one. But I think people don't understand that. Nobody
- 3:32Speaker 1: sees the talkbacks but me. So Billy and Lisa don't
- 3:36Speaker 1: know how to open. They don't even know where to
- 3:37Speaker 1: go for a talkback. They've never looked at a talkback
- 3:40Speaker 1: in their life. They only hear them when I play
- 3:42Speaker 1: them on the show. So you know, if you leave
- 3:44Speaker 1: a talkback saying whatever, say you want to talk shit,
- 3:46Speaker 1: which is that's every day. It's everybody likes to talk shit,
- 3:50Speaker 1: which is fine, But there are some people that leave
- 3:54Speaker 1: them over and over again. They hate listen to the show.
- 3:57Speaker 1: They listen and they hate everything that we're talking about,
- 3:59Speaker 1: no matter what it is. They have a negative comment
- 4:01Speaker 1: to say, and they'll direct them at myself or Billy
- 4:04Speaker 1: or Lisa, which is fine, but they'll like talk directly
- 4:08Speaker 1: to Billy as if Billy's ever gonna hear it, but
- 4:11Speaker 1: he never will because I don't play them for them,
- 4:14Speaker 1: you know, I'd love to be Billy and Lisa. They
- 4:16Speaker 1: don't have to hear any negative talkbacks. Ever. I read them,
- 4:20Speaker 1: and sometimes it's like damn, man, you know, because it
- 4:22Speaker 1: makes you second guess yourself, Like is what we just
- 4:24Speaker 1: diy good? You know? But for every negative comment, I'll get,
- 4:28Speaker 1: you know, a bunch more positive comments, so that's the
- 4:31Speaker 1: good thing. But you know how I am. You know,
- 4:33Speaker 1: It's like I can be in a run with a
- 4:35Speaker 1: thousand people, nine hundred and ninety nine of them love me,
- 4:38Speaker 1: one person doesn't like me, and I'm only focused on
- 4:40Speaker 1: that one person. That's something that I've worked on in
- 4:42Speaker 1: my entire life, especially since I got clean, is trying
- 4:45Speaker 1: to focus on the positive and not the negative. But
- 4:48Speaker 1: some of these people, man, it's like I read the
- 4:51Speaker 1: talk packs and I'm like, why do you listen? I
- 4:55Speaker 1: know you're it's usually long time listeners that have listened,
- 4:58Speaker 1: you know, since nineteen since the early eighties. They listen
- 5:01Speaker 1: through Maddie, then Maddie left, they listen to the Billion
- 5:04Speaker 1: Lisa Show all the way through, and so it's a
- 5:07Speaker 1: habit and I get it, and I think part of
- 5:09Speaker 1: it is like they don't want to let it go
- 5:10Speaker 1: because they do love the radio station and they do
- 5:13Speaker 1: love the show. But well maybe they don't love the show,
- 5:16Speaker 1: but they want to love the show. So when they're listening,
- 5:19Speaker 1: they hear something that we're talking about or someone says something,
- 5:23Speaker 1: and they just leave the nastiest talkbacks and it's like, Okay,
- 5:26Speaker 1: Justin's gonna read them and I'm just gonna hit the leads.
- 5:29Speaker 1: So really, what's the point, That's all I'm saying. You know,
- 5:33Speaker 1: it's okay to not listen. It's not we want you
- 5:35Speaker 1: to listen. That's the goal is to get everybody to
- 5:36Speaker 1: listen to our show. That's the goal and radio. But
- 5:39Speaker 1: if you don't listen, that's okay too. You know, we
- 5:42Speaker 1: still love you. So yeah, Secret Town tomorrow you know,
- 5:45Speaker 1: will either have a bigger jackpot or a new hire
- 5:48Speaker 1: starting jackpot, so that should be fun. Also on the
- 5:52Speaker 1: show this morning, we've play a Valentine's Day game because
- 5:54Speaker 1: Valentine's Day is this weekend. Hope you're making plans. I'm
- 5:57Speaker 1: trying to make my plans, but it's kind of a well, well,
- 6:03Speaker 1: obviously I'm gonna take my wife out for Valentine's Day
- 6:05Speaker 1: on Saturday, but I'm trying to take her out for
- 6:07Speaker 1: the night, so overnight, because you ask my wife what
- 6:11Speaker 1: she wants at any time, for her birthday, for Christmas,
- 6:15Speaker 1: for Valentine's Day, for any day of the year, it
- 6:18Speaker 1: is a night out where she can at a hotel,
- 6:22Speaker 1: probably by herself, but since it's Valentine's Day, she'll put
- 6:24Speaker 1: up at my shit. But yes, I'm trying to take
- 6:26Speaker 1: her out overnight. So I'm trying to line up a
- 6:28Speaker 1: babysitter and my mother in law nanny, who I love,
- 6:31Speaker 1: and so I'm actually this is so I'm actually trying
- 6:34Speaker 1: to get nanny tickets to the Temptations in the Four Tops,
- 6:38Speaker 1: who are still alive shockingly, and they're playing the cheval
- 6:41Speaker 1: Ye on Sunday night. So I'm trying to get those
- 6:44Speaker 1: and then be like, hey, I got you these tickets.
- 6:47Speaker 1: I want you to enjoy. But it's kind of like
- 6:49Speaker 1: a you know, even though she would do it either
- 6:52Speaker 1: way if I didn't get a tickets. But I'm just
- 6:53Speaker 1: trying to be like, hey, can you watch the kids
- 6:56Speaker 1: on Saturday night so we can sleep out. By the way,
- 6:59Speaker 1: I also got you to take to the Temptations for a
- 7:01Speaker 1: Sunday night kind of you know, smooth it up a
- 7:03Speaker 1: little bit. That's what I'm doing behind the scenes. So
- 7:06Speaker 1: hopefully that works out. But either way, we'll go out
- 7:07Speaker 1: to dinner, we'll have a good time. We'll spend the
- 7:09Speaker 1: time together there, you know, get our gift and stuff.
- 7:14Speaker 1: You know, I love my wife every day. You know,
- 7:16Speaker 1: I don't need a holiday to show that I love her.
- 7:19Speaker 1: I love her every day. But you know, I'll go
- 7:21Speaker 1: along with it. It's nice, it's nice, it's romantic. I'll get
- 7:25Speaker 1: us some flowers and you know, something else that she wants.
- 7:27Speaker 1: But I know what she really wants is that night
- 7:29Speaker 1: out at the hotel.
- 7:31Speaker 2: So I'm catching up on the after Show podcast from
- 7:34Speaker 2: last week and I hear you and Riley speaking about laundry,
- 7:37Speaker 2: and I'm listening to you about that you do the
- 7:40Speaker 2: launder in your house and it's similar to me. I
- 7:41Speaker 2: usually do the laundry in your house. And I listen
- 7:43Speaker 2: to you guys on the podcast why I fuld the clothes.
- 7:46Speaker 2: It's hilarious my main Yeah.
- 7:48Speaker 1: Another laundry guy. Yeah, that's something I've always talked about.
- 7:52Speaker 1: I'm the laundry guy in my house. I took it
- 7:54Speaker 1: on a couple of years ago and I still do it.
- 7:56Speaker 1: I actually do like it now. I do the same
- 7:58Speaker 1: thing that he does. I fold the laundry while I
- 8:01Speaker 1: listen to podcasts, you know, and I have like several
- 8:03Speaker 1: different podcasts that I listened to. I listen to like
- 8:05Speaker 1: fitness channels, if Joe Rogan has a good guess or
- 8:09Speaker 1: mostly this like fitness stuff health. But I fold the
- 8:13Speaker 1: laundry while I listen, And I think it's therapeutic, man,
- 8:16Speaker 1: I really, I really do. It's it's time that I
- 8:18Speaker 1: can be by myself, that I can kind of zone out,
- 8:21Speaker 1: and I like, I like doing it. But I also
- 8:25Speaker 1: like the fact that my wife doesn't have to do it,
- 8:27Speaker 1: so it's something that I took off of her plate
- 8:29Speaker 1: and and like there's an effort to do that, right,
- 8:31Speaker 1: I have to keep up with it. I'm very ocd
- 8:34Speaker 1: about it, getting the laundry, in, getting it out, folding it,
- 8:37Speaker 1: putting it all away. Same thing with the dishes. I
- 8:40Speaker 1: do all the dishes in the house. My wife does
- 8:41Speaker 1: not touch the dishes. And you know, I've talked about
- 8:44Speaker 1: this endlessly before. You know, it's just something that I
- 8:46Speaker 1: took over because she was so stressed out and I
- 8:48Speaker 1: wasn't doing anything. I was doing nothing, So I was
- 8:51Speaker 1: sitting on the couch because I get up early, right,
- 8:53Speaker 1: I get up at three am, and I go to
- 8:55Speaker 1: work and I'm tired. So it's okay that I can
- 8:57Speaker 1: come home and sit in the couch while she does
- 8:59Speaker 1: everything inside the house for the kids, and that has
- 9:02Speaker 1: to do the dishes and the laundry. And even when
- 9:04Speaker 1: the laundry would be backed up and she would be
- 9:06Speaker 1: stressed out, and she would say to me like, oh man,
- 9:08Speaker 1: I'm just so stressed out. She wouldn't ask me to
- 9:10Speaker 1: help her. She'd be like, I so much launder did
- 9:12Speaker 1: to do and the dishes, and I'd be like, damn,
- 9:15Speaker 1: sucks to be you. And of course, like that all
- 9:17Speaker 1: came to a head, right, that was a real turning
- 9:19Speaker 1: point in our marriage a couple of years ago. And
- 9:22Speaker 1: so I if you listen to the podcast yesterday, I
- 9:26Speaker 1: talked about the opposite Club with Alan. When it comes
- 9:29Speaker 1: to like you know, getting clean and recovery, and that
- 9:32Speaker 1: just means if you missed it, you know, doing the
- 9:34Speaker 1: opposite of what I've always I'd always done, right, I'd
- 9:36Speaker 1: always done the same things over and over, expecting a
- 9:39Speaker 1: different result, and it never worked out the way I
- 9:42Speaker 1: wanted it to. So when I got clean, I did
- 9:44Speaker 1: everything the opposite. So I've applied that to my entire life,
- 9:48Speaker 1: not just in recovery, in life itself. So in that moment,
- 9:51Speaker 1: I remember, like, I called my dear friend and I
- 9:54Speaker 1: was talking to them about what was going on, and
- 9:56Speaker 1: they said to me, why, why the fuck aren't you
- 9:58Speaker 1: helping your wife? I was like, man, And so I
- 10:01Speaker 1: thought to myself, Okay, what if I just do the opposite.
- 10:04Speaker 1: What if I make that change and do the opposite
- 10:06Speaker 1: of what I've been doing, what I see a different result?
- 10:09Speaker 1: And the truth is, yes, a huge result. When I
- 10:13Speaker 1: say huge Uh. Okay, I said this before and I'll
- 10:16Speaker 1: say it again. And this is not in bad taste, Okay.
- 10:20Speaker 1: It's something that I learned in my life later on
- 10:23Speaker 1: in life, okay, that forget any gift, forget any money,
- 10:30Speaker 1: forget any card that you may write. Those are all
- 10:33Speaker 1: well and good, Okay. Nothing makes a woman, or should
- 10:39Speaker 1: I say, turns a woman on more than helping out
- 10:42Speaker 1: around the house. Now, I may say that you may
- 10:45Speaker 1: be a guy listening to this podcast thinking the hell
- 10:48Speaker 1: is he talking about? Try it? Try it, Okay, do
- 10:52Speaker 1: some housework, clean your house, pick up one of your
- 10:55Speaker 1: wife's tasks that she does at home and take it
- 10:58Speaker 1: from her so she does not have to do it anymore.
- 11:00Speaker 1: And let me know, report back and let me know
- 11:02Speaker 1: how how your bedroom life improves, because it did for me,
- 11:06Speaker 1: it really did. So we're a couple of years in
- 11:08Speaker 1: now it's you know, it's kind of settled down. You know,
- 11:11Speaker 1: she still appreciates it. But in the beginning it was
- 11:13Speaker 1: such a shock because you know, it's those are the
- 11:16Speaker 1: things that turned my wife on, right, It's it's the housework,
- 11:21Speaker 1: it's helping out, and it's also just as I would say,
- 11:24Speaker 1: more important is being a father to our children. You know,
- 11:28Speaker 1: she said that to me many a times, like when
- 11:29Speaker 1: she sees me see in my head, okay, in my
- 11:33Speaker 1: sick head, I always say, like to I joke around
- 11:36Speaker 1: to her and I say, you know why I love
- 11:38Speaker 1: going to the gym, and you know why I work
- 11:40Speaker 1: out so hard? And so that you look at me
- 11:42Speaker 1: and you're attracted to me. And I say that jokingly
- 11:44Speaker 1: because I know she loves me regardless. She was with
- 11:45Speaker 1: me when I was three hundred and fifty fucking pounds. Okay,
- 11:48Speaker 1: imagine that climbing on top of you. She loves me regardless. Okay,
- 11:52Speaker 1: but I'll say, yeah, that's what you know. I just
- 11:55Speaker 1: want to look good naked for you, like I just
- 11:57Speaker 1: want you when I walk by you, I want you
- 12:00Speaker 1: to look at me and be like, damn, that's my husband.
- 12:02Speaker 1: And she said to me, you know what really turns
- 12:05Speaker 1: me on is when I see you being a father
- 12:07Speaker 1: to our children. When I see you spending time with
- 12:10Speaker 1: Abel and Gemma. When I see you sitting down and
- 12:13Speaker 1: drawing with Gemma or playing catch with Abel in the back,
- 12:16Speaker 1: or talking to them and being a father, that's there,
- 12:19Speaker 1: that's present, Like, that's what turns me on. And that
- 12:22Speaker 1: was another thing that I did not believe when she
- 12:23Speaker 1: told me that. And it's true. It's true. So I
- 12:27Speaker 1: enjoy it all. So Valentine's Day should be fun this weekend,
- 12:29Speaker 1: whatever we do, it will be fun. Anytime that I
- 12:32Speaker 1: get to spend with my wife and just us too,
- 12:34Speaker 1: not with the kids is great. So tomorrow on the podcast,
- 12:40Speaker 1: I'm gonna have Katie on. Katie is the new utility
- 12:45Speaker 1: slash phone person here at the iHeart Studios. When he
- 12:49Speaker 1: gets to know her, explain how she got here. She's
- 12:52Speaker 1: been answering our phones. She was hired probably like a
- 12:55Speaker 1: month ago. She has a radio background and basically she's
- 13:00Speaker 1: a utility person. So what that means is she's kind
- 13:04Speaker 1: of learning everything from all the radio stations and she's
- 13:06Speaker 1: gonna jump where she needs to be. But her primary
- 13:08Speaker 1: spot is gonna be on the Kiss Morning Show answering
- 13:11Speaker 1: our phones. But then she'll be she'll be able to
- 13:13Speaker 1: like jump down to another station or run the board here.
- 13:16Speaker 1: She's gonna be kind of a utility person, which is
- 13:18Speaker 1: what I started out doing. So we're gonna get to
- 13:20Speaker 1: know Katie and where she's from, how she got here.
- 13:23Speaker 1: Kind of a cool story. So that'll be tomorrow in
- 13:26Speaker 1: the after show. Remember you can always leave talkbacks for
- 13:28Speaker 1: the after show. I do love that power of recovery
- 13:30Speaker 1: coming in next Tuesday. Get your questions and comments in
- 13:33Speaker 1: early any recovery things going on in your life. If
- 13:36Speaker 1: you someone you know, a family member is struggling with addiction.
- 13:40Speaker 1: I know it can be very tough, you can feel lost.
- 13:43Speaker 1: If you have any questions, you can be anonymous. I
- 13:45Speaker 1: won't say who you are. Leave a talkback for the
- 13:48Speaker 1: after show from Maddie and Damon next Tuesday night. It's
- 13:52Speaker 1: gonna snow tonight. That sucks, but anyway, we'll talk tomorrow.
- 13:55Speaker 1: By bye,
