  Speaker 1: Check one two one two one two is this thing
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: on Oh My God After Show podcast. I'm here to
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: say goodbye and happy holidays. It is time for vacation,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: but you know I couldn't leave you guys hanging. The
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: show is over. It is ten thirty. I finally am
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: finishing up all of the work that I've been doing
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: and had to do today as we slide off into
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: vacation and close out twenty twenty five. I just wanted
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: to say to you to the after show Army, thank you.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: I love you, and yeah, thank you for being you.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it so much. I do my best to
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: do a podcast as much as possible. And you know what,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: today's show was so so much fun, man, so much fun.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Make sure you check it out on the podcast. We
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: had the end of year Awards, which is something that
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: we look forward to every year. We also had the
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: talk Packer of the Year. Kim is our talkbacker of
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: the Year. I know some people probably upset about that,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: but I don't know, Man, she brought it. She was consistent,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: very funny. Anything that we're talking about every day, she
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: has something to add to it, which is why the
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: mayor of the South End won too. You know, he
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: adds to the show, and I feel like every talkbacker
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: adds to the show in their own way. But you know,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Kim stood out from the very beginning, so she won.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: And then of course there was Billy's boyfriend who joined
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: the same thing, joins the show every single day. But
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I gotta be honest with you, even Billy's boyfriend left
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: a talkback nominating Kim and said he thought Kim should win,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: So shout out to him. And of course Sarah from Maine,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: who is a regular talkbacker but went the extra mile
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: when she went undercover at the Jordan Hudson pageant that
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: was earlier this year. Man, so much happened this year,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: and I'm looking forward to twenty twenty six. You know,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: it's been a wild year. You know, there was some
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: changes obviously, the change to the show, the big change
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: that you know, kind of shocked everybody, and working through
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: that and you know, trying to find our way, and
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: you know, we're doing our best. To shout out to Winnie.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: She has her podcast. If you miss her, make sure
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: you listen to that. Support her, Support her podcast, because
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you know it's if you're a fan of what she says,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: and her as a person her as a on air personality.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: She has a podcast that you can listen to. You
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: can listen to both. You can listen to our show,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: you can listen to that, or you can just listen
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: to that. It doesn't listen. It's a free world, free country.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: You can do whatever you like. So, yeah, a lot
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: of changes on the show this year, and you know,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: we did our best to find our way. It's a
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: different show. One of the things that drives me nuts, though,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: is people say that the show is not edgy enough.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Billy kind of alluded to this a couple of days
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: ago on the podcast, and I get what's missing from
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the show, right, is that kind of you know, off
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: the top random comments. I know that's missing on the show.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: But when you say that the show is not edgy,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, you know we're playing crazy clips, like
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: crazy things. I'm playing talk back saying crazy things. I
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: mean what other radio show is playing crazy you know
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Billy things that he's saying and kind of like riskue things.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: You know, the show is not all vanilla. So you
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: know I get that the anger and listen, I've talked
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: on and on about this. I'm not going to like
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: keep going about it. But I do my best best
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: to bring some edge. But I do understand that observation
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: because it's true that is missing. I can't do that.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: I can only do that through the clips. You know,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: that's not who I am as a person. That's who
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Winnie is as a person. That's what made her valuable, right,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: that's who she is in real life. She says those things.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: She doesn't think about it, she just says it. And
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: it's funny sometimes, sometimes it's crazy, sometimes it's absolutely wild.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: And that was kind of the you know, the added
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: part of the show. And again, I can't do that.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm not That's not who I am. That's
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: not who Billy is, that's not who Lisa is. So
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: changes to the show I think we did okay, I
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: think kind of it's kind of died off or whatever.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: But going into the new year, it's the highest ratings
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: that we've had in a couple of years, which is
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: good news. It means people are moving around, they're listening more,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: they're they're tuning in, they're liking what they're hearing. So,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: you know, it just makes me feel good because you know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: I put my heart and soul into this show, you know,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: even all the stuff from today. You know, it's what
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: I love doing. I love audio. I have this weird talent, man,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: this weird ability to save audio, save it a certain way,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: and pull it up really quickly. So you know, I'm
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: always working throughout the year and kind of saving all
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: these funny things and then you know, I save them
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: a certain way so that I can find them, so
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: that by the end of the year I can compile
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: everything because I'm big on reusing things, you know, And
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: you know, that's the advice I always give two other shows,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: because you know, other shows, whether it be in the
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: building or outside the building, will come to me and say, hey,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: how do you do this? Like how do you do
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: that with the audio? And that's one thing I'll say
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: is every day, when you have a piece of audio
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: that you think you may use again, you want to
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: store that in a way where you can find it.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: You want it to be organized. And that's that's a
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: big thing that I have going is the organization of
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: all of my audio. How I store it, and that's
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: how I'm able to pull it up really quickly. It
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: sounds amazing, right, It sounds like how does he do that.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: It's just a system that I'm consistent with and it's
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: proven to be successful. So you know, I love putting
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: together these compilations at the end of the year. I
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: talked about it on jingle Ball Day. I get in
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: seven eight in the morning. I don't have to be
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: at the garden until like four o'clock, and I literally
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: come in here, I get a nice meal, and I
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: work by myself, and I put together everything for today's show,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: something I've always done and I mentioned on the show.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: A really cool moment with Kim in the studio was
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: after it was over, I walked out and our boss
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Dylan was sitting on the couch outside listening on the
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app to our show, to the segment dying laughing,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: and I was like, man, like that just warms my soul.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: You know, it makes it makes it all worth it.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: You know. I love what I do. I get to
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: live out a dream every single day I show up.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: It's not easy to get up every single morning. It's
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: not easy to be funny and engaging every day, especially
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: in a world with so much going on, so much bad,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: so much negativity, especially with things going on in all
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: of our lives, family stuff. You know, everyone has problems.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: I have my own problems at home, you know. I
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: get stuff with my son going on, my wife, my family.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: And to show up five days a week and put
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: that aside and be entertaining and be engaging and be funny.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: It's not easy, man, It's not easy. But I do
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: my best. I do my best, and I always just
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: try to have an attitude of gratitude. Man. That's what
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: it is. It's looking at life in a positive way
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: because how your life is going to go is a
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: lot on your perspective, right. It's the kind of like,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: you know, I'll quote my friend Randy, if you step
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: in dog shit, you could be happy that you can
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: be upset that you stepped in dog shit, or you
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: can be grateful that you had shoes on. It's all
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: about perspective in life. I could sit here and complain
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: about so much shit. I can do the victim mentality
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: and woe is me and poor me, and I'm not
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: where I need to be. I don't have enough money,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: I don't have this, I don't have that. None of
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: that stuff matters, man, because we only get one life.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to go down a whole
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: like spiritual road here. But you know, we only get
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: one life, We only get one shot at this. It's like,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: what am I gonna do? What am I gonna do
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: to better my life? To empower others around me, to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: raise my kids, to be a good husband, and overall
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: just be a good human, you know. And that's you know,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: when I got clean, I did so much bad before that.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: When I got clean, I started to do the right thing.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: And that meant no more lying and no more treating
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: people badly. And I've been consistent in that too. See.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: The keyword is consistency. Consistency with things like the audio
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: at work, and consistency in life with treating other people
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: with respect and love and dignity, you know. And that's
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: why it hits me so hard, with like the negative
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: comments and the overwhelming amount of comments about like this
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: and that and tearing people down and what we're wearing.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: And Billy and Lisa are too old. Let me tell you,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Billy Costa is the youngest seventy plus year old guy
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: that I know. Right, this guy is like a machine,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Like try doing what he does. It is you think
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: that I'm a hard worker like this guy comes to
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: He has two TV shows, a radio show host gal Is.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: He has two RATES shows. Actually I don't know how
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the fuck he does it, but he is full of
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: energy and full of life and just a fun guy.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: You know. I don't know what you think. Maybe because
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: you hear these crazy things that he says, then maybe
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: he's a bad guy. Billy is like the nicest guy
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: you could ever meet. And it's funny because last week
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: there was a party at Ernie box house. I couldn't
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: make it, but it was really cool that Kevin Bacon
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: was there, Karen Reid was there. I knew some people
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: that went and I couldn't go. But I was at
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: home and I was just like looking stuff up that night,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, Ernie, you know, and I know Ernie,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: And I was kind of looking at his story and
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: stuff and his dad and the car dealerships. And I
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: came across a Rereddit post and it said is Ernie
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Buck a good guy or not? And there were people commenting,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: you know, mostly yes, but no, no, a lot of haters.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: You know, he's not a nice guy. Yes, he is
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a nice guy. I met him. He's a very generous guy.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Music Drive all this stuff, and then randomly someone wrote,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know about Ernie Bak, but Billy Costa actually
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: a really nice guy, and that turned into a whole
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: thread of people being like, Billy Costa is actually the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: nicest guy ever. I met Billy at this restaurant. He
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: came in to eat here. You know what I mean.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: If you've met Billy and had any kind of interaction
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: with him, you would know that. You would know that.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: I know sometimes this persona of this crazy guy on
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: the air can maybe think that he's a certain way,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: but trust me when I tell you he is not.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: And the same thing with Lisa Donovan. Just the sweetest,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: sweetest person ever, for real. So I love my team man.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Shout out to producer Riley too has busted her ass,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: literally busted her ass. I did see a bad producer
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Riley comment, what is that you act like? Producer Riley
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: replaced anybody? She did not. She still part time, does
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: not make a lot of money and busts her ass
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: every single day, just like I did. So shout out
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: to her and all that she does. And she baked
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: me some cookies and stuff like that because I don't
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: want a gift, but I will always take food because
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: it's the holiday season and I've been eating. So with
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: all that being said, I want to say happy Holidays
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: to all of you. The after show Army, we will
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: not talk on this podcast until the new year, So
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: I'm going to get a lot of relaxing done. I'm
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: going to the Mentalist Sunday night. That's gonna be good
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: with my buddy Adam. And then I'm going to kill
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Tony the next weekend with a bunch of my friends,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: and I think we're gonna take like an overnight trip
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: somewhere with the fam, kind of last minute that should
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: be fun too. I'll probably want to, like, you know,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: leave immediately. I'll leave after ten minutes because you know,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: I love my kids, but they drive me absolutely bonkers.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: But like, those are the memories that I remember, you know,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I always say, I think about Disney. The last Disney
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: trip we went twice? Did we go twice or once?
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I think we went twice. God, anyway, the last one
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: we went to now mind you, when we went with
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: my son, I think he was like four maybe, and
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: within five minutes of getting to Magic Kingdom he was like,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be here. I want to go
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: back to the hotel pool and we're like, we have
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: a pool at home. What are you talking about? And
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: as I look back, I can think, like, there were
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: a lot of pain in the ass moments. It was hot,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: he didn't want to walk, we had to rent a carriage.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: He wanted to he didn't want to go on the rides.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: But I don't remember any of that, Like it's weird.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: I only remember when I look back on it. The
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: first thing that comes to mind is joy. I think about, man,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: that was fun, you know. And you know, if I
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: really think about it, I can think about, oh, it
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: was stressful, but overall it was fun. And that's why
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: we're trying to give our kids experiences. One of their
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: gifts this Christmas is a trip to Aruba. This is
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: a trip We've been planning all year long in anticipation
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: of Christmas. So we've been saving and I've been using
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: my credit card for the miles like an adult. I
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: got like a really good credit card, a venture X Cards.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I've been using that in building up the miles. We've
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: been saving money and we finally planned it paid for
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: for at in full, and for Christmas, we are going
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: to give them the gift of Aruba. We brought some
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: suit well, my wife brought some bought some suitcases and
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: some pictures of Aruba, and we're gonna go back in
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: March for the March vacation, you know, and they're gonna
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: remember that for the rest of their lives. They're not
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: going to remember every toy that we got them, they're
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: not going to remember that, but they'll remember every vacation
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: or times we went away to Great Wolf Lodge anything
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: like that. It's all about the experiences. So I don't know.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go off on an another tangent. I
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: want to say I love you guys, and have a
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: great holiday, have a happy new Year. We will talk
