Beautiful moments. 4 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 2: Well, probably the most popular that people talk about is 5 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,599 Speaker 2: the resigning live on air that went by all the 6 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 2: other day on the top that went really what happened? 7 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 2: That happened really quickly. We were just in a brainstorming 8 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,319 Speaker 2: session and I asked one of the texts, can you 9 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 2: play something different through the speakers of the officers here 10 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 2: at Nova that isn't the exact same that's going to 11 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 2: wear on Nova? And they just went, yeah, for sure. 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 2: And we just thought, well, let's just record a fake 13 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: break and play it through the speakers. Do you know 14 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 2: that this works so well that we knew that they 15 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 2: were going to react like that. 16 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: We've been having. 17 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 2: A few tussles with hierarchy behind the scenes here at Nova, 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: so they thought that something was going on. And when 19 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 2: I spat the dummi and said I can't do this anymore, 20 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 2: on Strut started dropping f bombs on air. It was beautiful. 21 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: Everyone went into meltdown. It's just interesting that majority of 22 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,639 Speaker 2: those hierarchy are the only. 23 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: Thing was they resigned themselves, but not on air the way. 24 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: Sean Heron, who worked for us at the time, stands 25 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: in the hallway with his hand over his mouth in 26 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: complete disbelief, the talent having an absolute meltdown. 27 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 2: This is one of the highlights of our here it is. 28 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 3: And Whipper podcast. 29 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 2: All right, So this is the deal, all right? Our 30 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: bosses here at Noaman. They are Brendan and Tony and Sean. 31 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 2: Sean Herron as well is involved as well. Now, they 32 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: told us that we should come up around about a 33 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 2: month ago, wasn't it. Wep, guys, April Folls is coming up. 34 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: You've got to come up with a funny stitch up 35 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: on air. The stitch up was actually on them, and 36 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: this was the idea that we came up with. 37 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 3: So I was a bit nervous about this idea. Frozy. 38 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 3: We thought it would be funny if you told the 39 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: bosses you were quitting the show live on air, like 40 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 3: you'd lost the plot. You hadn't told them anything, and 41 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 3: that was it. It's about the day. I mean, you 42 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 3: weren't interested anymore. 43 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: So we played live on air last week a pre 44 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: recorded chat that we had with Carl Stephanovick you may 45 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 2: have heard it. Cal was on there talking about the 46 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 2: Today Show and all that kind of stuff. 47 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 4: But here in the. 48 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: Nova building, we rewired everything. So every radio in every office, 49 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: every speaker that went throughout the building, we rewired it. 50 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 2: So it sounded like the break where I was quitting 51 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 2: on the show went out to everyone there. So the 52 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 2: bosses were in their office at the time, they were 53 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 2: listening and this is what they were hearing through this speakers. 54 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 2: It's fits with you on Nova.
