1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,200
Speaker 1: I'm here for a short time, not a long time.

2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: It's a Friday. I can't wait to get out of here.

3
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Oh man, Hi everybody after show podcast and yeah, just

4
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: saying hi before at the weekend, it's been a crazy Friday.

5
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: It's always crazy on Fridays. I feel like I should

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: get a raise and I say this with the utmost

7
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,479
Speaker 1: respect that I should get a raised based on what

8
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: I do on Fridays and Billy cost it, by the way,

9
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: but I think he's doing okay, if you know what

10
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: I mean. You know, we record the countdown, so just

11
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 1: to give like a peak because we always talk about

12
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: like the Friday madness, but to give a peak on

13
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: how it works. Is so, Billy has been doing the

14
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 1: Kiss Top thirty countdown for probably thirty plus years, right,

15
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,959
Speaker 1: so he can do it very quickly if he has

16
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: everything in front of him. So that's where I come

17
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: in as the producer of the countdown. So you know,

18
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: all week long, I'm building the countdown. I am doing

19
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,239
Speaker 1: all the research and pulling all of the sound and

20
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: basically basically I just lay the whole thing out for him.

21
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: So on Friday mornings, you know, I'm working on it

22
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: every single day leading up to Friday. So Friday, I

23
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: come in, I get here nice and early, three point

24
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: thirty three forty five, you know, I plan the show,

25
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,919
Speaker 1: get that stuff done, and then the countdown. I finish

26
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: up and I have, you know, the countdown itself, and

27
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 1: then I have all the research next to it. And

28
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: once we do the show prep on Fridays, so you know,

29
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: around six at by six am, we're done with the

30
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: show stuff. We start recording. And what we do is

31
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: we record during the commercials of the show, which is

32
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: actually pretty wild if you think about it in Bill's case,

33
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: because Billy has to host the show, do all of

34
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: his regular stuff news entertainment, live reads, and then also

35
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: come into my studio during commercial breaks and record the countdown.

36
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: And it's it's a lot for both of us, you know,

37
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: because we're doing two shows simultaneously. And you know, one

38
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: would argue, why don't you just wait until after the

39
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: show to do the countdown, That's a valid question. Billy

40
00:01:58,480 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: just wants to get out of here, and I want

41
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: to get out of too. You know, it just makes

42
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: more sense when the show's over everyone goes home that

43
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: we go home too. Otherwise we'd be here till like noon.

44
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 1: So we've just always done it like that. We have

45
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,119
Speaker 1: it down to a system. But it gets really crazy

46
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: because you know, Billy comes in and records the countdown.

47
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: I have to actually produce it, so that's another whole

48
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 1: part of it. I have to put all the songs together.

49
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: I have to make sure everything sounds right, make sure

50
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: it's tight. It's a lot of work, so I'm working

51
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: on that at the same time as the show, so

52
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: there's just a lot going on. And when the show's

53
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: very busy, it makes it that much harder for the countdown,

54
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: and on Fridays it's really busy anyway. So that's like

55
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: a snapshot into what we do. And we literally look

56
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: at each other every single Friday when we're done and

57
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: we're like, this is actual madness what we're doing. And

58
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: I guess you'd never know as a listener to the show.

59
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: You never know that we're doing that, that we're doing

60
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: two shows at once. You know, Billy's running it out

61
00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: of my studio with seconds to spare. It's actually interesting, challenging,

62
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: but a little stressful, so you can understand why on

63
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: a Friday, I just want to go home and I

64
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: just want to get my weekend going. So today I

65
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: am I have a friend coming over to look at

66
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: some house stuff for me. I have to drain my

67
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: ice bath, so I have to make sure my hose

68
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: can spit out water because it needs to be changed.

69
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,679
Speaker 1: So I'll be doing that. And then tomorrow night, Billy

70
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: and I are going to a cage fighting match in Manchester,

71
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: New Hampshire. This is so random. I guess he works

72
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 1: with All Town Fresh for his TV show and they

73
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: sponsor one of the fighters, so they invited him and

74
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: it's in Manchester, which is near me, so he invited me,

75
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: so we got a boys' night. He's gonna pick me up.

76
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: We'll get some food or they'll have food there, and

77
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: then I think we're like cage side for this fight,

78
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: so that's gonna be cool. And then Sunday the adjusters

79
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: coming from my insurance company to give me a quote

80
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: on the damage to my house which seems to have

81
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: stopped the water. We put some holes into my bedroom sailing,

82
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: I move my sneakers, so let's hope for the best.

83
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: I did get to several talkbacks from people who have

84
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: the same issue, so I feel your pain if you

85
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: have ice dams, if you have leaks, if you're a homeowner,

86
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: I feel you. It is such a pain in the ass.

87
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: And we're getting more snow too. Sucks. But yeah, that's

88
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: my weekend. Thank you so much. Did I get any talkbacks?

89
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: I forgot to even look. Let me take a look. Care.

90
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: This message is for Katie and Justin just wanted to say.

91
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:27,679
Speaker 1: You can going back to Katie.

92
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 2: Wow.

93
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: So people must listen to this podcast days after it

94
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: comes out. See in my mind, I record the podcast

95
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: and people are listening to it that day. But what

96
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: I've learned is that sometimes you know, people have different schedules,

97
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: so they listen later on interesting anyway, Katie is our

98
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: phone screener. She's very young, she's twenty two or twenty three.

99
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: I had her on to tell her story how she

100
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: got here and you know how she's trying to make

101
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: it in the business fresh out of college.

102
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 2: Sedulations on your podcast, Katie, you will definitely go places

103
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 2: in this business. It's also a great message to some

104
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 2: of the younger people on be engaged, talk with people,

105
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 2: ask questions. It could potentially open a job for you.

106
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 2: So just wanted to say congratulations and what a great interview.

107
