• 0:02
  Speaker 1: See.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Look, it's best question of the week.
• 0:04
  Speaker 3: How do we know what the question is? Well, we
• 0:06
  Speaker 3: don't until you email it to us AH Radio from
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: hell at x ninety six dot com.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Just put best question in the subject line and I
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: will answer just about anything.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean not anything anything, but just about anything
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: of a couple radio DJ related questions here.
• 0:23
  Speaker 4: Oh why do they want to know that from us?
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Once from our good friend Zane Zaane says, good morning lords,
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: if you could work.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Any shift as a DJ, not six to ten am, any.
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: Other shift, any other shift?
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what would you want to work?
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: Six to midnine, seven to midnight, seven to midnight? Yeah,
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: I used to work that shift.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: And the problem is is that there are often events
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: that happen during the seven to midnight that you want
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: to attend. Now, So, as I have been pushing for
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: I knew you were going to say this for.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: Many many boons. We should not be on in the morning.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: We should be doing the same show between three and
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: seven pm.
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Here always said that it would be quite successful.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: It would be there are more people with access to radios.
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: At that time.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: But then when do we have dinner?
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: As soon as the ship's over, you go right home
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: and have dinner. You'd have a late dinner, late dinner.
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: But you see, you see why so many things don't
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: get done on the show because Gina has questions like that,
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: because I.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Love a four to thirty dinner. I'm a big fan
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: of the four thirty.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: Gina's already into the Early Bird Special.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: A big fan of that. Let's see, we've got this
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: one from Barry. All right, good morning lords. Hi, it's
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: been a grand old time listening to the show for
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: many years. I am a digital media major at Weber
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: State and I have participated in the radio station on
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: campus KWC our Radio dot com if you're interested. However,
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: I've never felt particularly well spoken, and the dynamic you
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: three have put together has been inspiring. Here's my question.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Do you have any tips for how to streamline such
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: a flow? What things have you learned over the years
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: that would help the next generation?
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: That's from Barry.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: Not sure what the question is. Well, let's say, you know, so,
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: so Barry is listening to us and thinking, well, this
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: all seems so natural and it just sort of flows,
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: and you know, and is there some secret to that? No,
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: there isn't. There's really no secret to it. It is
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: just doing it over and over and over again, year
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: after year after year. You become familiar with each other's rhythms,
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: more comfortable, and things change, dynamics change, and you kind
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: of you just but.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're talking about having dinner at seven thirty.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: That's that's a big change.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: That's a big change.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: That's something that's pretty massive. Wow, I bet the ratings
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: spike because of that.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: You know, it's not just a time thing, though, And Pete,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: We've been asked this question a lot.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: It's chemistry. For whatever reason.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: This works, the three of us here doing this works.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: It's like a marriage. Sometimes you can't explain why it
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: is that it works. It's just it's it's chemistry. So
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: maybe the trick is Barry finding somebody to do that
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: with that you have chemistry with.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: It's it's also like just but it is also time.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: The band. The bands that have stayed together the longest
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: are the bands that they don't they know when they
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: just they don't. They probably don't do a lot of
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: things together the same way with us. We don't. We
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: don't party, we don't socialize. We come here and this
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: is what we do. And this is how we get
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: express ourselves to each other and then we but then
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: we don't. We very seldom socialize outside of works.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Well, if Berry's is starting out, I would suggest just
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: listening to talk shows where there's several people and instead
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: of just listening to what they're saying, listen to how
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: they're participating, you know, uh, you know, kind of be
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: analytical about it. It's like when I when I tell
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: people when they say, you know you can tell a story, say, well,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: that's only because I studied and listened to some of
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: the best storytellers ever, you know, whether it was my
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: father or Bill Cosby or whoever it is, you know,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: great storytellers. You learn how to tell a story. Just
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: you know, be analytical about it. And maybe if you
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: were to pay attention to some show that were talk shows,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: don't listen to the content of what they're saying, but
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: how they particulately.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: I have a suggestion because there are not many shows
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: like this on the radio anymore, but you know there's one.
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: There's a TV show. It's The Graham Norton Show. And
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: if you just that's a great example, if you would
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: just turn don't don't turn on the don't don't look
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: at the picture, just listen to just listen to the conversation.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: It's he does what he does extremely as a British presenter.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: And it's interesting because he usually has himself and then
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: three guests, so four people. Yeah, and that's a lot
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: of people that could be cross talking and interrupting.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: And somehow he is able to keep that flow going.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: And it's interesting too because it's people that don't necessarily
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: it's three people that maybe only slightly know each other,
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: and they're from different worlds. I was, I was listening
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: to one it was it was it John Cleeese and
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: Sydney Sweeney and you know, so just people that are
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: just not related at all.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I can't imagine what John Cleese and Sydney Sweeney would
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: have to talk about.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: That's why it's interesting.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Graham asks good questions about it.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Any other I mean those were just the DJ one.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Do you want another quick one?
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: We could do a quick one if you got another
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: one that give it a quickie couple of minutes here.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: Knowing what you know about how your lives have turned out,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: what advice would you go back and give yourself to
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: either ensure you ended up where you are now or
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: make changes. I would say I wouldn't change a thing.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: And I have had some crappy stuff in my past,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: really horrible stuff that you would think, well, surely if
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: you could go back, that wouldn't have no because I
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: like where my life is now and it wouldn't be
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: here now if I.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Hadn't done all that stuff.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I uh, I think what I would change. It's
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: too personally. I couldn't. I can't really say on the
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: on the air. But but there's one one aspect of
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: my life I wish I had done something differently.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, see, there's and it had to do with my
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: first marriage. There's there's several things that I would have
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: liked to have done differently.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: But again it's that sacred timeline.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah you can't, you know, I mean to get where
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: we are now, where I'm very happy, you'd have to
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: change something and I don't have the time machine to
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: fix it.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: You know, So I wouldn't do And and there's part
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: of the human experience where they say it's you have
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: to have that bad stuff HM to appreciate the good.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: If you have a care free life with no problems.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I've said before.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: About marrying my husband, and I get teased all the
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: time for talking about how perfect.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: I wonder he is and how great my marriage is.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: If I had married him in college when I first met.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Him, we would not have the marriage we have today. Really, No,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: was it because he was different or you both of us?
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: We're both we're both divorced once before.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: And I'm not saying everybody should, you know, have a
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: starter marriage, but there's something about.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: The starter marriage where.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: You're like, oh, okay, that dynamic I don't want again.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: I would do this differently.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: I would marry somebody who's different in this way. And
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: I'm grateful for that first marriage that I wouldn't have.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: The great one I have now without that.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I could go back in time,
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: I would have told my first wife, don't marry that guy.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: Somebody should have told her, do not marry him? Well,
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: all right? Is that not everything? That's good?
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Stuff like that?
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: We could be talking about your email that you send
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: us radio from hell at X ninety six dot com.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: All right,
