- 5:05Speaker 2: that's nobody mind.
- 5:07Speaker 9: Does anybody stand out in your mind on your show?
- 5:10Speaker 9: Who really stood out telling.
- 5:11Speaker 2: A great story? I would say that the best storyteller
- 5:15Speaker 2: I ever had on my radio show over the.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Years, was Jim Roverer okay comedian, I totally tits made.
- 5:22Speaker 3: Carlson, I know the storyteller, Yeah, je Jim Rower really
- 5:27Speaker 3: knows how to tell a story and been a funny
- 5:29Speaker 3: and they get very related.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Yeah, we're just getting started. Actually we've only done about
- 5:36Speaker 2: twenty episodes.
- 5:37Speaker 9: You started today.
- 5:38Speaker 12: Yes, as far as my podcasting goes, been a radio
- 5:45Speaker 12: guy for like thirty years, and I'm learning how to
- 5:48Speaker 12: take all that experience in radio and moving into the podcast, says,
- 5:54Speaker 12: And it's a lot of fun so far.
- 5:57Speaker 2: All right, let's just.
- 5:58Speaker 9: Great a story to tell them, he says, give me,
- 6:01Speaker 9: give me your best story.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Where do you go with I like telling family stories.
- 6:05Speaker 1: I'm just stories that I'm growing up and living in
- 6:09Speaker 1: a pretty crazy household when sending kids, no.
- 6:12Speaker 3: Kids with a crazy mother? And yeah, what you do
- 6:17Speaker 3: on the second holds second holder?
- 6:19Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, so are your brothers.
- 6:23Speaker 12: Radio?
- 6:24Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 6:24Speaker 2: Better pay their bills?
- 6:29Speaker 9: The same question. What if you learned over the years
- 6:32Speaker 9: from I want to telling stories stories?
- 6:36Speaker 12: Well?
- 6:36Speaker 14: As a chef, I mean, recipes are stories for us, right,
- 6:40Speaker 14: so for me to teach people how to cook properly
- 6:43Speaker 14: in my restaurants or whatever, I have to tell them
- 6:45Speaker 14: the why, how, where it came from.
- 6:47Speaker 15: So I've been telling stories food related. You know, if
- 6:50Speaker 15: people don't fall in love with the recipe, they're.
- 6:53Speaker 2: Not going to do it right.
- 6:53Speaker 5: So you know that's the way that I tell stories.
- 6:56Speaker 5: I kind of break them down and make you make
- 6:58Speaker 5: you love what I love and them we're good.
- 7:00Speaker 2: Is there anybody who can teach most people? Most people
- 7:06Speaker 2: because they're scared to love things.
- 7:08Speaker 5: They really are. Most people are scared to really invest
- 7:11Speaker 5: in something one hundred percent to make it great.
- 7:13Speaker 4: And going with Carl's point, you ask a passion behind
- 7:17Speaker 4: your story, teller, and then that gets a list of
- 7:21Speaker 4: very involved something to do, of course, but.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Why teller doesn't have any passion.
- 7:27Speaker 1: That which goes to what he's talking about, because you know,
- 7:31Speaker 1: Carl's a chef and loves cooking and preparing food and
- 7:35Speaker 1: drink and drinking, and then it comes across as a
- 7:39Speaker 1: final prop right.
- 7:40Speaker 10: So just to the two of you that have already
- 7:42Speaker 10: talked to, let me ask you, when somebody is coming
- 7:44Speaker 10: on your show, do you give some guidelines?
- 7:47Speaker 9: Could you do you tell them? I want to hear
- 7:49Speaker 9: your story?
- 7:50Speaker 15: What do you what do you tell yours I think
- 7:52Speaker 15: it depends upon what he wants to abuse them or
- 7:55Speaker 15: wants to actually be friends with them.
- 7:57Speaker 5: I mean there's different guests. There's sometimes they're there they
- 8:00Speaker 5: of the joke, you know, sometimes they're part of the joke.
- 8:04Speaker 2: Well, I gotta explain that though. I mean, when you're
- 8:09Speaker 2: in the broadcast media, you know, there's there's people that come.
- 8:11Speaker 3: In and they just want to sell their last movie
- 8:14Speaker 3: and lace book whatever what have you. And then you know,
- 8:17Speaker 3: ways are seeing helping make the show there and I
- 8:21Speaker 3: never had tolerance.
- 8:24Speaker 2: And then and then you get the people that come
- 8:26Speaker 2: in and they you.
- 8:27Speaker 3: Know, they understand they're in a pretty cool, open environment
- 8:30Speaker 3: with no real rules.
- 8:32Speaker 1: I don't tell them what they can't pay say, And
- 8:35Speaker 1: those tend to be the best guess of my radio
- 8:38Speaker 1: show and now on my podcast.
- 8:39Speaker 10: So here's a question of we having ever recorded with
- 8:43Speaker 10: someone and they just didn't form the way you.
- 8:45Speaker 9: Wanted them to and you did not parasite she did
- 8:49Speaker 9: not perform the what you wanted her to.
- 8:50Speaker 2: No, so you didn't hear the episode?
- 8:53Speaker 5: No, I mean it was online radio.
- 8:56Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I started a podcasts, So I'm really picking
- 8:59Speaker 2: the people that I know. Are you know a good
- 9:02Speaker 2: storytellers is a good guests.
- 9:04Speaker 1: But when it comes to radio, I found over the
- 9:07Speaker 1: years that a lot of the Eight Usters were terrible
- 9:10Speaker 1: storytellers because they are very protective.
- 9:13Speaker 2: They didn't want to see to how radios.
- 9:15Speaker 1: You know, because that would hurt their bottom line or
- 9:17Speaker 1: their their products. And I found everyday people way more, way.
- 9:22Speaker 8: More fascinating, and a lot of the Eight Usters that
- 9:24Speaker 8: came from the studio doors interesting.
- 9:26Speaker 10: Yeah, But a lot of times when those people, especially
- 9:29Speaker 10: the Austries are coming.
- 9:30Speaker 11: Through, they kind of have you know, they don't even
- 9:33Speaker 11: know what they want to talk about, which is trouble
- 9:35Speaker 11: and they're upcoming the project.
- 9:36Speaker 2: They've literally trubled talking points. And you know, we were
- 9:41Speaker 2: lunching because back at the day they would go over
- 9:43Speaker 2: and Regis and Kelly and then you know, Kelly and
- 9:45Speaker 2: whatever it is now, and they would do the exact
- 9:48Speaker 2: same interview on our show, and I'm like, you know,
- 9:51Speaker 2: screw that, let's let's let's try to get some real
- 9:53Speaker 2: stuff going on.
- 9:54Speaker 1: But no matter what question asked them, they were able
- 9:56Speaker 1: to bring it back.
- 9:57Speaker 2: To their talking points for the day that some publicity today.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Which is really one of the biggest disappointments is doing
- 10:05Speaker 1: a popular radio show because you assume, if you're a
- 10:09Speaker 1: celebrity and you're in the spotlight that you could just
- 10:11Speaker 1: simply no, just yeah and riff with hopefully funny and
- 10:15Speaker 1: interesting people.
- 10:17Speaker 9: Yeah interesting, Okay, doctor Chanis Prester, you are amazing and
- 10:21Speaker 9: many last night.
- 10:22Speaker 10: I know so much GIF stuff to stay. So tell
- 10:24Speaker 10: me about your trajectory and podcasting, and then also tell
- 10:28Speaker 10: us about your story, your storytelling experience and.
- 10:31Speaker 9: Intelligent good story and period a good story. What the
- 10:33Speaker 9: fans up?
- 10:34Speaker 16: That's a lot.
- 10:36Speaker 17: So I'm obviously the always tell I've never been professional
- 10:40Speaker 17: in broadcasting, but I.
- 10:42Speaker 2: Have a guesting of this so a long time.
- 10:45Speaker 17: And what I was saying about this, I realized I
- 10:48Speaker 17: really got my snort as a lisser.
- 10:50Speaker 9: To broadcast radio. So if you don't know if sitting
- 10:55Speaker 9: into this room is one of my over.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Here, very wow.
- 10:57Speaker 9: The view with the leader who girl who would tells
- 11:07Speaker 9: is plays?
- 11:07Speaker 2: And then when I see it said, joined it up.
- 11:10Speaker 2: I can have consorts.
- 11:12Speaker 9: And so when you have that, say, learned to be
- 11:15Speaker 9: a storyteller.
- 11:16Speaker 2: And when I get a worshal.
- 11:18Speaker 9: We're going to talk about a movement.
- 11:20Speaker 5: What's that meat?
- 11:22Speaker 7: To walk after me.
- 11:26Speaker 2: I heard.
- 11:30Speaker 9: Spare fish.
- 11:32Speaker 2: If that does not excited you, then you.
- 11:37Speaker 5: America feel.
- 11:42Speaker 9: You are clear, sir. It's just unbelievable.
- 11:45Speaker 17: You kind have done it all.
- 11:46Speaker 9: You've seen it all. Just an amazing wealth of of
- 11:51Speaker 9: of of stories that you've heard.
- 11:53Speaker 18: And so.
- 11:55Speaker 10: Let me ask you when you because you you don't
- 11:59Speaker 10: host speaking right, if you're a producer, you're on the suits.
- 12:03Speaker 2: I host my wife.
- 12:07Speaker 9: We're not going to be studio shown this podcasts. What's
- 12:10Speaker 9: the one? How a storytime committed that.
- 12:14Speaker 8: First of all, Westwood One loves podcasts. Giving yourself the
- 12:19Speaker 8: hand because you are all pioneers in this room.
- 12:22Speaker 2: People that are stepped out. It is a great unknown
- 12:25Speaker 2: and this has been quite a story what has happened.
- 12:28Speaker 13: And transpired over the last few years in this in
- 12:31Speaker 13: the Suite Space podcast seeing as well known, he's a
- 12:34Speaker 13: destructive movement that has taken on for Wrestler Radio and
- 12:39Speaker 13: it is.
- 12:39Speaker 2: An incredible, incredible opportunity for all the people in this.
- 12:42Speaker 8: Room and the stories that come out of it and
- 12:45Speaker 8: just being each and every one of you, it's been
- 12:48Speaker 8: just absolutely amazing. Like we have the guys who are
- 12:52Speaker 8: eighty three weeks Tolrad Thompson, who's the podcast on our platform, Ruce.
- 12:57Speaker 2: Scripcher, who's that some people Wrestle of the back of
- 13:00Speaker 2: the room here the Game of the Year, which is.
- 13:03Speaker 8: Incredible, Philadelphia Idea, Daddy sawback.
- 13:07Speaker 19: And then also Opie and Carl had created a sensation
- 13:12Speaker 19: on the internet with their podcast and the stories that
- 13:16Speaker 19: they bring with them and that we work with on
- 13:18Speaker 19: a data basis are absolutely amazing, and it's giving and distracting.
- 13:22Speaker 8: This information and putting this content on these podcasts and
- 13:27Speaker 8: it's just a great way.
- 13:28Speaker 2: On thy seven.
- 13:31Speaker 9: Yeah, well I started that.
- 13:36Speaker 2: I did lay in the house. It was an interesting
- 13:39Speaker 2: part of a lot of.
- 13:40Speaker 20: People were ruling and it was like litles thirty some
- 13:43Speaker 20: years of take in a room and I saw this
- 13:46Speaker 20: up and we were starting to produce and edit and
- 13:49Speaker 20: create content and pathos and we were really podcasting, you know,
- 13:53Speaker 20: ten fifteen years ago and kind of started this whole
- 13:56Speaker 20: thing and we didn't even know what.
- 13:57Speaker 2: We were doing. But now, let's see where to say
- 14:00Speaker 2: to wife spread So it's it's been a really urn.
- 14:04Speaker 9: We're going any podcast. Do you think there's a sweet
- 14:06Speaker 9: spot in the pliny of a podcast?
- 14:08Speaker 2: I think that's not a storytelling put it's seagull seats
- 14:11Speaker 2: that are best. Don't waste my time. And as long
- 14:13Speaker 2: as there's great information, there's if we had it in
- 14:16Speaker 2: a way that has to get in the middle of
- 14:18Speaker 2: an into it.
- 14:19Speaker 8: I think that you know it along for four hours.
- 14:22Speaker 8: There are podcasts that are four hours that are very interesting.
- 14:25Speaker 8: There's podcasts that belong to ten minutes. It's just still't
- 14:29Speaker 8: waste my time. I think that's a very very true,
- 14:32Speaker 8: true safement from Seaquels.
- 14:34Speaker 2: I agree with that, don't.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just gonna take Tenny said, that's the d said.
- 14:38Speaker 1: I'm ar you tream radio and podcasting that you got
- 14:41Speaker 1: to make sure every word counts.
- 14:44Speaker 2: You know, when you do it on a talk show,
- 14:46Speaker 2: they end to day.
- 14:47Speaker 1: You know, you always will allow and accept you to
- 14:49Speaker 1: just kind of settle in and find sweet sauce.
- 14:52Speaker 3: But if podcasting, man, if you're not if you're not
- 14:55Speaker 3: hitting all cylinders within the first few minutes, they're gone.
- 14:59Speaker 9: So you have produce your of course, But in addition,
- 15:02Speaker 9: what do you do to prepare for your shows.
- 15:05Speaker 2: For the podcast. Yeah, it's very different than a.
- 15:07Speaker 1: Radio shop, where I didn't sound fascinate, you know, doing
- 15:11Speaker 1: radio when the mic was on, it was one thing,
- 15:14Speaker 1: but a lot.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Of these interesting people that came through, you know, the
- 15:17Speaker 2: self they.
- 15:18Speaker 8: Were doing saying when the mics were off during commercial
- 15:21Speaker 8: grades before they came on the air, and then after
- 15:23Speaker 8: the mics went off was just as interesting.
- 15:26Speaker 2: So I'm trying with my new podcast to kind of
- 15:29Speaker 2: take a lot of that sloight that on on the podcast.
- 15:34Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that so, I mean, you know a lot
- 15:37Speaker 1: of times it's being Carlo's walking the streets and.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Seeing what we can come up with.
- 15:41Speaker 9: So, carl what is this meaning? Storytelling is like a recipe?
- 15:44Speaker 9: What are you talking about?
- 15:45Speaker 14: Well, it has an end result, right, So a recipe
- 15:48Speaker 14: has an end result, something delicious comes from, and a
- 15:51Speaker 14: story is the same exact thing.
- 15:53Speaker 5: But you have to be invested and you want to
- 15:54Speaker 5: have to cook it and you want to have to
- 15:56Speaker 5: listen to it.
- 15:56Speaker 16: But the recipe and so stories failed most of the time.
- 16:02Speaker 16: Have you heard some stories out there? I heard something
- 16:11Speaker 16: that was great. It was a little story. It took
- 16:12Speaker 16: me away from.
- 16:13Speaker 5: Whatever I was thinking about the beginning of middle and then.
- 16:17Speaker 16: Just right, because when you're cooking with somebody or you're
- 16:22Speaker 16: teaching somebody something, you gotta make them.
- 16:25Speaker 5: You gotta have them invest in, right, So I tell them, hey, listen,
- 16:27Speaker 5: we're gonna make this steak. This is from the north
- 16:29Speaker 5: of France, and we're using this butter. And they get
- 16:32Speaker 5: into it instead of me just showing up like this
- 16:35Speaker 5: is what we're doing. They're not gonna love it. They're
- 16:37Speaker 5: gonna burn it. They're not gonna care. No, I don't
- 16:40Speaker 5: have a home to.
- 17:00Speaker 14: You before define these are.
- 17:04Speaker 3: Just bringing us all all the way around. And I
- 17:07Speaker 3: decided to start my podcasting career. The first podcast he
- 17:11Speaker 3: did was Carl's Creepy Cabin.
- 17:13Speaker 2: So yeah, that's where he pleaded the day is still
- 17:18Speaker 2: live actively living in a cabin.
- 17:21Speaker 5: I killed bugs seventy percent a day. I'm killing bucks.
- 17:24Speaker 5: I'm really that. I I have network contracts coming up,
- 17:30Speaker 5: so my be ten six.
- 17:34Speaker 2: Elevator. Okay, it's really moving off. Yeah, which I heard point,
- 17:39Speaker 2: you know, going back to what I said earlier, the.
- 17:42Speaker 3: Radular podcasts are kind of very infascinating, and the things
- 17:46Speaker 3: I'm learning about podcasting that's kind.
- 17:47Speaker 2: Of important is to be a fly on the wall.
- 17:50Speaker 2: The listeners really want to be a fly on the wall. Uh,
- 17:53Speaker 2: you have to be more infocant and and relatable.
- 17:58Speaker 5: I gotta I agree with opia. You know, when you
- 18:01Speaker 5: do TV and.
- 18:02Speaker 16: And I run into someone that knows me from TV,
- 18:04Speaker 16: they just know, like a little bike like they'll say,
- 18:06Speaker 16: oh I ne screams Broctoly, you know, like what the
- 18:09Speaker 16: hell does that even mean?
- 18:11Speaker 5: And then regular radio they kind of know you. But
- 18:15Speaker 5: podcasting is the most.
- 18:16Speaker 14: Intimate thing I've had people come and give me hugs
- 18:18Speaker 14: and talk to me like.
- 18:20Speaker 5: It's almost like they knew me, or they were like
- 18:22Speaker 5: family almost.
- 18:23Speaker 13: It was.
- 18:23Speaker 16: It was striking to me coming from other medias to
- 18:26Speaker 16: know people knew they listened so well.
- 18:32Speaker 2: Remember when I was a kid.
- 18:35Speaker 8: Strings on the top of the room and listen to
- 18:37Speaker 8: like Hey don't Why Little Rock as.
- 18:43Speaker 2: The wolf Jack Show. I felt an a cliation and
- 18:46Speaker 2: association with these people because late at night it was
- 18:49Speaker 2: what I want. It was very, very unique.
- 18:53Speaker 8: It was seeing certains now with podcasting us, it's the
- 18:57Speaker 8: similar to the same type of when I was a
- 19:00Speaker 8: kid growing not even getting acclimated to radio.
- 19:03Speaker 2: I see podcasters first.
- 19:05Speaker 8: Of all, if you're going to be pulling this content
- 19:07Speaker 8: of your life because you feel some affiliation.
- 19:10Speaker 2: With it, you can feel some kind of connection to it.
- 19:13Speaker 8: And so that's part from one under two is is
- 19:16Speaker 8: that if people like Carlo and Obie when I listen
- 19:19Speaker 8: to their shows, or I listened to eighty.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Three Weeks, or I don't listen to other podcasts on
- 19:23Speaker 2: our platform, I feel some kind of connection there. I
- 19:26Speaker 2: feel like I'm getting the problem with them.
- 19:29Speaker 8: And that's why when we talk to our podcasters, we
- 19:32Speaker 8: ask them, you know, what association do you have with advertisers?
- 19:36Speaker 8: What you know the products do you use on a
- 19:38Speaker 8: data basis, because we don't want them to sell or
- 19:41Speaker 8: just talk about products that.
- 19:42Speaker 2: They don't feel that their heart is right for them
- 19:45Speaker 2: or right for their audience.
- 19:46Speaker 8: And that's the connection the power of being authentic and
- 19:49Speaker 8: real and honest that podcast brings to consumers today.
- 19:53Speaker 10: But also I feel like, you know, to the point
- 19:55Speaker 10: that they feel so close to you, because I feel
- 19:57Speaker 10: like people are listening to podcasts and very and waits,
- 20:01Speaker 10: you know, they're like that at not they're running hype
- 20:03Speaker 10: people or whatever they're doing.
- 20:05Speaker 3: Go ahead, sorry, yeah, Well, in technology is such that
- 20:08Speaker 3: you know, you can hear every single word of the
- 20:10Speaker 3: podcast is also thing.
- 20:12Speaker 1: And to answer this question, and I think it comes
- 20:14Speaker 1: down simply to the fact that people choose you when.
- 20:18Speaker 2: You when you're part of the big radio show, people
- 20:20Speaker 2: don't necessarily choose you. Sometimes we just background h noise.
- 20:24Speaker 2: They kind of know who you are. If they even
- 20:26Speaker 2: meet them and they're like, I'm a huge fan, and
- 20:27Speaker 2: you ask them, you know, way way they like that,
- 20:30Speaker 2: they don't even have an answer for that.
- 20:32Speaker 1: But when we run into our listeners from the podcast world,
- 20:35Speaker 1: which like I said, once again.
- 20:36Speaker 2: We're really new to right, these people know every.
- 20:39Speaker 3: Single word and they're picking up on everything, and they're
- 20:42Speaker 3: you know, and they're they're kind of really.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Digested to these episodes very very slowly, and they're a
- 20:49Speaker 1: saving on them, which I.
- 20:51Speaker 2: It's it's it's such a different world to you. So
- 20:54Speaker 2: many to me say, which I really thought was a
- 20:57Speaker 2: great observation.
- 20:59Speaker 8: It's an argy kind of compatible platform, you know, la
- 21:03Speaker 8: be heighty blocking, So it's a companion piece, and it
- 21:06Speaker 8: really podcastings become a companionship with the consumer, with between
- 21:12Speaker 8: performer and consumer, and it's a much tighter bond than
- 21:15Speaker 8: than anything that actually want a radio interrestrial radio or
- 21:18Speaker 8: you know, Toupision show or so forth.
- 21:20Speaker 10: How do you get out of your guest a story
- 21:23Speaker 10: rather than their life story.
- 21:25Speaker 9: In other words, who can who can encapsulate our life?
- 21:29Speaker 2: The one thing that I have found, Beau, is that
- 21:32Speaker 2: these guys sell into the interviews.
- 21:33Speaker 8: They need conversations, And I think there's a big difference
- 21:36Speaker 8: between sitting down and when they were on a terrestal
- 21:39Speaker 8: radio show brought in a guess they did an interview,
- 21:42Speaker 8: where these are more conversations, they're more incident, they're more direct.
- 21:46Speaker 8: There there son implied about it about that being in
- 21:49Speaker 8: the environment that they're in when they be captured these
- 21:51Speaker 8: performances that they're just performed differently than they were when
- 21:55Speaker 8: they were interrestrial radio.
- 21:57Speaker 2: Well, they are people comfortable, whether it's the atmosphere.
- 22:01Speaker 1: There in Sometimes as simple as asking them how how's
- 22:05Speaker 1: your day on the right and it tolls them all
- 22:08Speaker 1: far a little bit.
- 22:09Speaker 2: You know, you're not hitting any with that first headed question.
- 22:11Speaker 14: It's like, man, how was it going?
- 22:13Speaker 2: How's your sun going?
- 22:14Speaker 3: And they tend to take a deep breath and relax
- 22:17Speaker 3: and settle in and then uh, you know, you just
- 22:20Speaker 3: like like ten percent and try to have a conversation.
- 22:22Speaker 2: But when I prepare for you know, I don't want
- 22:26Speaker 2: to call them an interview. You're talking to somebody.
- 22:28Speaker 1: I just have a few basic bullet points and then
- 22:31Speaker 1: in my mind I'm like, okay, I want to hit
- 22:33Speaker 1: these four or five bullet points and whatever else happens
- 22:36Speaker 1: in there where they just focus.
- 22:38Speaker 10: You don't understand what they how they respond to you,
- 22:41Speaker 10: and the auser that the audiences at.
- 22:42Speaker 2: Home didn't either, So it's just heading.
- 22:44Speaker 9: The hell of that. You get get the reiavat, tell
- 22:48Speaker 9: them a different web.
- 22:49Speaker 2: Oh sure, yeah, exactly. One of the big swos, like
- 22:52Speaker 2: a terrestial radio.
- 22:53Speaker 8: There's a lot of these synergies or showbok kind of
- 22:56Speaker 8: set up are set up because of phase.
- 22:58Speaker 2: There's an advertising boy or.
- 23:00Speaker 8: There's their mandated to the talent, and the talent has
- 23:03Speaker 8: zero connections to the interview. For example, at the end
- 23:06Speaker 8: they OBI had on Robert Ordeal, who was the guy
- 23:09Speaker 8: that's just down the blotting, and you can see a
- 23:12Speaker 8: januine connection and a januine interest in this what the.
- 23:16Speaker 2: Sid you're saying? And it was and listened to that
- 23:19Speaker 2: podcast was so powerful.
- 23:20Speaker 8: It's just a conversation back and forth, and you can
- 23:24Speaker 8: tell when an interviewer is really involved into the conversation
- 23:28Speaker 8: because they listen.
- 23:29Speaker 2: Harder you know, and listening to keep mark to it,
- 23:32Speaker 2: and you can.
- 23:33Speaker 8: See what an interview is really doing a job, and
- 23:35Speaker 8: he's really really listening.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Yeah, no one, I was good fun that one, the
- 23:42Speaker 2: first one you're talking about. It was mode in the
- 23:45Speaker 2: Bison yet summer. It was about fruity drains always other stuff.
- 23:50Speaker 2: And then I wish you would a got a little
- 23:52Speaker 2: too in a little fast yeah.
- 23:55Speaker 3: And then in my mind I'm like, wow, I read
- 23:56Speaker 3: out fifteen twenty minutes and stuff, and now we're finally
- 23:59Speaker 3: going to go into.
- 23:59Speaker 2: The the actual story over hitting do know something a lot?
- 24:03Speaker 5: But I do?
- 24:04Speaker 1: And then circumstance set the pressures on Hi because he
- 24:07Speaker 1: sold the story so many times. So you also try,
- 24:10Speaker 1: you try, I mean you don't you know, accomplish it
- 24:12Speaker 1: every time, and you try to get you know, a
- 24:14Speaker 1: different version of the stories and different yes, knowing that
- 24:18Speaker 1: they're doing everyone else's or anyone else in radio show?
- 24:21Speaker 9: Do you listen to your guests ahead of time? I like,
- 24:23Speaker 9: for instance, that story, No, did you ever hear him
- 24:26Speaker 9: tell that story before?
- 24:27Speaker 12: Well?
- 24:27Speaker 2: Holding up my radio show? So I now offer the
- 24:31Speaker 2: podcast because I'm making beree. I never heard the story before? Right, Yeah?
- 24:35Speaker 2: Better questions. Yeah, I hope, so it all.
- 24:39Speaker 15: OPI prepares, he's a he's a natural talent. I mean,
- 24:44Speaker 15: I've done a lot of interviews with other media stuff. Hope,
- 24:48Speaker 15: he's I mean, he's one of the best. I mean,
- 24:50Speaker 15: it's it's it looks after less.
- 24:52Speaker 5: But when I try to do what it's it's a
- 24:53Speaker 5: complete Jaws of life car accident.
- 24:57Speaker 2: When I try to do what he does, I'd rather
- 24:59Speaker 2: take fun of you.
- 25:00Speaker 5: People on the sidelines. It's easier, no accountability.
- 25:04Speaker 2: It's what I want to do is I prepare a lot.
- 25:07Speaker 5: Then when I can, that's.
- 25:11Speaker 2: That's when I get you.
- 25:13Speaker 5: But he knows how I have a conversation, like if
- 25:15Speaker 5: you if I have a conversation with someone, it will
- 25:17Speaker 5: just ramble on like a flood, not like a river.
- 25:21Speaker 5: It will just go everywhere. Whatn't make any sense?
- 25:23Speaker 9: Op.
- 25:23Speaker 5: He knows how to bring the story back. He knows
- 25:25Speaker 5: how to reel in the g R. Yeah, well we're
- 25:30Speaker 5: not making stakes with these people, like we're talking with him.
- 25:32Speaker 5: And that's what he's He's just a natural talent. It's
- 25:34Speaker 5: it's impressive to be part of it. I mean sometimes
- 25:41Speaker 5: difficult sometimes because he's not bad.
- 25:44Speaker 21: He's a good kid.
- 25:50Speaker 9: That's gonna take a while.
- 26:00Speaker 21: Right then you think it's times that was then quite
- 26:06Speaker 21: for Opie said, he said it several times.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Okay, so you gottably who is a celebrity is something
- 26:14Speaker 2: you want know? And he told the story then times
- 26:18Speaker 2: And you don't want them to sound canning. How do
- 26:21Speaker 2: you how do you get to sound different than they
- 26:26Speaker 2: were on other need I don't think there's a formula
- 26:30Speaker 2: to that. I think you just try to You just
- 26:33Speaker 2: try to hit it from other angles.
- 26:35Speaker 3: You try to make them comfortable, You try to catch
- 26:38Speaker 3: them all car. You try to make sure they relax.
- 26:43Speaker 22: And one of the things too is like at Westwood
- 26:46Speaker 22: at Westwood one on the podcast networks over probably a
- 26:51Speaker 22: quarter of a billion people on a weekly basis, And
- 26:53Speaker 22: the thing is that you want to identify unique people.
- 26:57Speaker 2: You need talent like Opie a Car that are had the.
- 27:00Speaker 8: Ability to ask questions in such a way they perform
- 27:03Speaker 8: things directly.
- 27:04Speaker 2: Than somebody else.
- 27:05Speaker 8: And that's the uniqueness and the actributes that we find
- 27:09Speaker 8: interesting about having people like this in eighty few weeks
- 27:13Speaker 8: and then share all the other ones that we have
- 27:16Speaker 8: on Jericho and all this kind of stuff on our
- 27:18Speaker 8: podcasting platform because these are unique people that have unique
- 27:22Speaker 8: ability to do things differently.
- 27:24Speaker 2: If I had to say, a guest on each.
- 27:26Speaker 8: Show, each side would do in a different way the
- 27:29Speaker 8: stories that they're going to give a story in a different.
- 27:32Speaker 2: About I'm trying to answer to that question that's does
- 27:36Speaker 2: anyone I'm an answer to that because oh seean here's John's.
- 27:50Speaker 1: So I think the difference is that when a guest
- 27:53Speaker 1: comes on who's been on in a number of different places,
- 27:57Speaker 1: what you automatically do that nobody.
- 28:00Speaker 2: Else does a should make them laugh, right, they're laughing
- 28:04Speaker 2: when the minutes start having a great time. They're telling
- 28:07Speaker 2: stories about themselves.
- 28:08Speaker 3: That they've not told anybody else, and therefore the answers
- 28:12Speaker 3: you get are completely different from what.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Has been thank you all right? So John's point, Gay,
- 28:17Speaker 2: you try to make them let their guard down and
- 28:20Speaker 2: then they will open up a little more.
- 28:22Speaker 1: So I think it comes down to trying to make
- 28:24Speaker 1: advents as comfortable as possible in the atmosphere and hopefully
- 28:28Speaker 1: they trust you.
- 28:29Speaker 3: They trust the Bob too, and they feel like they're
- 28:32Speaker 3: in a new space and a lot of times they're
- 28:35Speaker 3: willing to, you know, tell you a little more because
- 28:37Speaker 3: they want to tell the listening themselves.
- 28:41Speaker 2: Gonna take another question, but.
- 28:44Speaker 9: Him an Holi has things to show with Paul, how
- 28:46Speaker 9: I grow this and it's about some more basic mistakes
- 28:49Speaker 9: that we make in our personal lives and career. And
- 28:53Speaker 9: I think this is great oneerful people like they might
- 28:55Speaker 9: have around the area. And this is sort of probably
- 28:59Speaker 9: it's the last question, But I talked to you.
- 29:02Speaker 10: About crucial mistakes and personal life business and I can
- 29:06Speaker 10: say all day, I have all.
- 29:08Speaker 2: The time of the world.
- 29:08Speaker 8: But one of the people's the mayor.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Amost Grabber girl, Basyful document Ali day. They're running life
- 29:15Speaker 2: in the business.
- 29:16Speaker 9: So I'm gonna ask how you to do so many
- 29:19Speaker 9: people up to open.
- 29:20Speaker 23: Up about something really personal quickly because they might have
- 29:25Speaker 23: a shorter time during the night.
- 29:27Speaker 5: Out alcohol or skinned.
- 29:31Speaker 17: They're gonna as to really really like you very quickly
- 29:36Speaker 17: and they see all positions like that, but they may
- 29:39Speaker 17: not before I'm sitting.
- 29:41Speaker 1: In my care for you.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Why it's in that's the talking.
- 29:44Speaker 23: Very talk to me before you actually need the interview
- 29:48Speaker 23: with the guests, getting them to do a pre interview
- 29:51Speaker 23: and try to do some boss setting before man to
- 29:54Speaker 23: find out a Twitter side are goings and get them
- 29:56Speaker 23: to talk about certain things or eighty half.
- 29:59Speaker 2: A produce should talk to them to you know, somebody
- 30:02Speaker 2: would have maybe a little different tact and getting that
- 30:05Speaker 2: information for you as you with the final performance. So
- 30:08Speaker 2: there are ways. But also I think it's always point two.
- 30:12Speaker 8: It's like, how are you need to proud da He
- 30:14Speaker 8: sat there talking to Broader being about you know, this
- 30:17Speaker 8: sat and the other thing, and it gets to them
- 30:19Speaker 8: a lot organically evolved into that because of discomfort zone
- 30:24Speaker 8: and not because it's.
- 30:25Speaker 2: All be led into it right away. It just organically.
- 30:28Speaker 2: So it's you know, you've got to eas.
- 30:29Speaker 1: A rule, and I think that there are tools that
- 30:32Speaker 1: you can apply that will help you get.
- 30:35Speaker 2: The results anything.
- 30:36Speaker 8: And it's so one of those, you know, a free interview,
- 30:39Speaker 8: the next one of the maybe having.
- 30:40Speaker 2: That producers doing for you doing the three interview. Maybe
- 30:44Speaker 2: it's uh, you know, you warping out to them in
- 30:46Speaker 2: nice car points out, I'll always be always wearing at
- 30:49Speaker 2: your time, you know, So I got it, I did say.
- 30:53Speaker 1: But I think that's almost as possible if you're looking
- 30:55Speaker 1: for that quickly, because that's.
- 30:57Speaker 2: The times of shows.
- 30:59Speaker 1: If you show us on the human nation, we're all
- 31:02Speaker 1: very very guard and it takes a walk, It takes
- 31:04Speaker 1: a lot for you'll open up.
- 31:06Speaker 2: It goes back to that that trust thing.
- 31:08Speaker 5: But to get there quickly, I don't, I honestly don't
- 31:12Speaker 5: know how you do that.
- 31:13Speaker 1: I mean, the best stuff I've gotten over the years
- 31:15Speaker 1: is that you're talking to a guy for sorry, for like.
- 31:18Speaker 2: An hour, an hour and a half, and then finally.
- 31:20Speaker 1: The last five minutes of all the juicy stuff because
- 31:22Speaker 1: they finally feel comfortable enough and to trust you, and
- 31:26Speaker 1: and and they want to they obviously want to tell
- 31:28Speaker 1: you this this deep dark story or whatever.
- 31:31Speaker 2: But you know, it just takes a long time, a
- 31:33Speaker 2: head day. I don't think you can do it.
- 31:36Speaker 9: Okay, I have, unfortunately, have one more question.
- 31:40Speaker 2: All yeah, I have a question. How do you go
- 31:42Speaker 2: from radio podcasting going interviews. You're kind of stop when
- 31:46Speaker 2: you're calling a story or a podcast or radio if
- 31:49Speaker 2: a listener calls up a cussion, this sucks, and you know,
- 31:52Speaker 2: to real, how are you competing your story? You're letting
- 31:56Speaker 2: it go.
- 31:57Speaker 5: That person just.
- 31:57Speaker 16: Tweets now that you stuck, it's actually faster and it's
- 32:02Speaker 16: more effective.
- 32:05Speaker 18: It comes out of I mean, I had my podcast
- 32:10Speaker 18: a lot because we wanted to sound as naturally as possible,
- 32:14Speaker 18: but you know the beauty of podcasts, and you know,
- 32:17Speaker 18: you record here to your podcasts, and we got depending
- 32:20Speaker 18: on what was said of this in our kid until
- 32:22Speaker 18: we sometimes before this thing goes out, and we had
- 32:25Speaker 18: it in such a way that it sounds still like
- 32:27Speaker 18: a natural conversation, so you're able to get all that.
- 32:30Speaker 2: Crap out of there.
- 32:31Speaker 16: One thing that I learned from Opie was when we
- 32:34Speaker 16: did our first podcast, he said to me, I'm gonna make.
- 32:36Speaker 5: This thing smoke. Where I come from, that's a whole
- 32:39Speaker 5: another animal, right, So I'm like, what does that mean?
- 32:42Speaker 15: But he he literally meticulously goes through it and seeds
- 32:46Speaker 15: it up just a little bit and it changes everything.
- 32:49Speaker 5: And it blew my mind. Even though I was part
- 32:52Speaker 5: of the podcast. I mean I did have a couple
- 32:54Speaker 5: of drinks, so I forgot it was a little foggy.
- 32:56Speaker 16: But at the end it was like a completely different
- 32:59Speaker 16: conversation and be plays a part of it, and it's
- 33:02Speaker 16: and an editing thing that I've seen.
- 33:03Speaker 5: And Joey from west I mean, Westwood Londs is pretty company.
- 33:05Speaker 5: I mean, they're their support is fantastic, But.
- 33:08Speaker 2: I kind of prayers.
- 33:09Speaker 5: That really helps.
- 33:10Speaker 3: Again, people, we go back and forth in the post production.
- 33:14Speaker 3: To Carl's point, you know, I edit on spaces and
- 33:18Speaker 3: all sorts of stuff, but.
- 33:19Speaker 1: We gotta make sure it's still sounds naturally because you know,
- 33:22Speaker 1: the podcasts been learning that too.
- 33:24Speaker 2: Man, they're like, oh it was ed see you not
