87
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: an suv to a sedan? When I get a sedan,

88
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm in a spaceship.

89
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 2: Okay, I told you again, it was a personal thing.

90
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 2: My wife, Michelle's dad had passed and the car was

91
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: brand new. He had only driven it twice and he

92
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 2: got really sick. And so the dealership that, by the way,

93
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 2: he bought a lot of cars from, wasn't giving him

94
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: a good deal on selling it back to them. So

95
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: because I took Michelle's stepmom there to the dealership and

96
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: I said, you know what, forget it, I'll do it.

97
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: So I took the car.

98
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: Ah, Okay, so do you have to keep the car.

99
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 2: What's that? Do you have to keep the car? I

100
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: don't have to. I mean I own the car outright,

101
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 2: I can do anything I want with it.

102
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a beautiful car.

103
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 2: It's just because it's Michelle's dad's car. We'd like to

104
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: keep it close to our heart.

105
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got you. You could always keep that car.

106
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,240

140
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: you use the vacuums, but you go once a week

141
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 1: and you pay for the twenty dollars wash.

142
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:22,960

146
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,000

148
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,640

00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: so I got Billy a house call. She'll bring her

00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: in the gym because she can stretch you on the table.

169
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: But then she can also show you other things to do.

Speaker 1: Yeah, you and Michelle. That's great, Yeah, naked. I don't

173
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: think she's gonna do the naked thing. I'll ask her tonight,

174
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: but I don't. I don't think so. By the way,

175
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: her husband's a coping. Yeah, I'll get you.

176
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: Okay, maybe I shouldn't. I wouldn't make any naked jokes.

177
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: I wouldn't make any naked choke okut. But all right,

178
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: well say hello to Michelle. I shall all right, seey bye, Belle.

179
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: Thanks for having me.

180
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: By the way, yeah, no problem. I'll make sure to

181
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 1: ask every person next time. But you just kidding anyway, Hi, friends,

182
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: it is the after Show. God. Yeah, it's so funny

183
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 1: because Bill is always my first choice always, but he's

184
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: very busy, and I just find if I just come

185
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: out and ask him and say, hey, you want to

186
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: do the after Show, he'll tend to say, no, I

187
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: gotta go do this, I gotta do that, you know.

188
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: But you see what just happened there. He said he

189
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: had the lead, and then he gave me like five minutes.

190
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: So did he really have to leave, that's the question.

191
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: But I like to spice it up. You know, people

192
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: that are around Producer Riley very busy. I understand she

193
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: We have a meeting at ten fifteen, so she has

194
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: to do a bunch of editing and stuff and then

195
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: we have a new phone screener, Katie. You're gonna meet

196
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: her soon. Very very nice girl, super nice, super sweet.

197
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: And that's a cool story about how she got here.

198
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool too, Like I'll let her tell it.

199
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: But she wasn't even working in radio, had no plans

200
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: on working in radio. She does have a background in

201
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: this field, but yeah, it just came out of no way.

202
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: It was a chance meeting that she had somebody and

203
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: we ended up needing somebody here. So she's kind of

204
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: like a point person behind the scenes. So she's gonna

205
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: be helping multiple of our stations kind of at the

206
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: same time. She's gonna be helping us answering the phones

207
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: while also kind of monitoring other things going on in

208
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: the building. She's gonna be a kind of a utility

209
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: player like what I used to be. She's gonna learn

210
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: a little bit of everything, so you know, if somewhere

211
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: else needs her to jump in, she will so, which,

212
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: by the way, is actually a good idea to learn,

213
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: because I found that the more that you know, especially

214
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 1: in radio, the more that you know, the harder it is,

215
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: I guess for them to get rid of you, because

216
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: if you only do one thing, this is what I found,

217
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: then you know what I mean, when that time comes

218
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: and they do you know, company wide layoffs like you know,

219
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: but if you do a million things, so like for me,

220
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, anything could happen to anybody, me and anybody.

221
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: You never know. This is the real world. This is

222
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: a it's a corporate company or any work. They can

223
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: make changes at any time. But if they're going down

224
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: a list of me, it's not gonna not so much

225
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 1: gonna be like, oh well, Justin is really great at

226
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: his job, but he does a great job every day.

227
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: It's gonna be more like, if we replace him, we

228
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: gotta find this many people to do what he does,

229
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: because I mean, to be real, I literally do the

230
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,719
Speaker 1: job of like what six people used to do here

231
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: at the radio station, you know, on the air and

232
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: off the air. It's just the way that it happened.

233
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: You know. I've told the story before. I'm not gonna

234
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 1: tell the whole story, but you know, the chances of

235
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: getting hired in radio when I was an intern and

236
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: getting part time and then full time and all that

237
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: stuff was so hard. But I recognized there were two ways,

238
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 1: two reasons I could do it. Two ways. One, don't leave,

239
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: don't think you're gonna move on somewhere else, and then

240
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: get hired back. It's like, you know, if you're present,

241
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: that can help you. And also learn as much as

242
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: you can learn every single job possible because then they

243
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: can move you around. And so that's what I did.

244
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: So I literally did like everything. I was running boards,

245
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 1: I was editing, I was answering phones, I started to

246
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 1: do commercials and then eventually more on air stuff and

247
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: then you know, ended up here. But like we used

248
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: to have, you know, people that did commercials, only we

249
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: used to have interns that would help Billy. They used

250
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 1: to be like six interns every semester that would just

251
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 1: pull stories for Billy. And now it's just me and Riley,

252
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: you know. So it's a pretty wild. But yeah, she

253
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: is gonna be helping everywhere, but mainly I think she'll

254
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: be here on the morning show answering our phones and

255
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: then kind of moving around as needed. So we'll meet

256
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: Katie soon. And yeah, I don't know. I try to

257
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: just pull anybody in here that can yuck it up

258
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: about the inner workings of the radio station. We've been

259
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: talking a lot about the phone number changing. That's an

260
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: interesting piece. I had forgotten about that. They told us

261
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: that like several months ago, and then when we run vacation,

262
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: we got an email like this is happening, and it's

263
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 1: kind of a big shock. I mean, I see some

264
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: of the talkbacks on this, especially the longtime listeners that

265
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: go back to like the eighties, you know, six one

266
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: seven ninety three one one one o eight. It is

267
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: like ingrained in people's minds in their phones, and now

268
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: it's changed, you know, And we were having a lot

269
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 1: of trouble with that. This is the reason we were

270
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: having a lot of trouble. So hopefully this is cleaner.

271
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: We have a caller ID now we can you can

272
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: be able to text soon. That's not like open yet,

273
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: but soon you can text that number. And it's eight

274
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: seven seven and six eight seven seven six one seven

275
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: one one oh eight. So they kind of jumbled everything around,

276
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: So that's cool, and uh, Yeah, today's show was fun.

277
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: I like the topic time because you know, the topic

278
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: time is a group discussion that we can then you know,

279
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: talk amongst ourselves and then we can get everybody else

280
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: to join in our listeners via phone calls and via

281
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: the talkbacks. But how it came to be was we

282
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 1: were debating all three of these topics before the show.

283
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: We wanted to talk about stranger things. Billy talked about

284
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: the New Year's thing at the clothing store, and then

285
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: Lisa was like, it's national take your Christmas tree down,

286
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: and my Christmas tree is still up, Like should I

287
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: be taking that down? And we kind of started debating

288
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: about that, and that's when we kind of looked at

289
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: each other and said, this is a topic time, you know,

290
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, multiple topics that everybody is

291
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 1: kind of going through talking about experiencing right now. So

292
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, that was fun. That was always good

293
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: And I don't know. We're back, man, We're back from vacation.

294
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 1: It's a brand new year. It's gonna be a big year.

295
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: I really truly believe that. I believe that this show

296
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: will continue to grow and it will continue to reach

297
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: new ears and keep keep people coming back. You know,

298
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: I always say to my boss every single year, literally

299
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: every year, at the end of the year, you know,

300
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: he'll say, you know, happy holidays, thank you for all

301
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: you do. I always say to him, looking forward to

302
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: next year and looking forward to more content because to me,

303
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: like the content. I know it's us talking, but the

304
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: content is so important. And when I say content, I

305
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: mean I mean talkbacks, and I mean stories, entertainment, Billie's News,

306
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: you know, segments that have sound clips put in music,

307
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: like content on the show. When you tune into this show,

308
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: I want there to be no question, no debate as

309
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: to whether there is a good amount of content. And

310
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 1: so that's what I strive to do every single day.

311
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, my life is committed to this show. Yes,

312
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: we only work well. I get here at four am.

313
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 1: I usually leave around eleven, so four to eleven. The

314
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: show is from six to ten. But all day I'm working.

315
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: All day, I'm scouring the internet, I'm watching news, and

316
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 1: I'm taking notes so that when I come in the

317
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: next day, we can cover everything. And a lot of

318
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: times we can't cover everything. There's so much, so many

319
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: things happening in the world, you know, but I do

320
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: my best to make sure the show is just full

321
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: full of content. You might notice that, you know, my

322
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: general rule is if they can be audio added to

323
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: this piece what we're talking about, always, always, allways, it's

324
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: much better to play audio along with something then to

325
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: just talk about it. So that's what I do in

326
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: the morning. You know, I come in and I have

327
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: my list of stories, and I find all the sound.

328
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: I compile it so that when Billy comes in, he's like, Okay,

329
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 1: where are we starting, And I'm like, start here, and

330
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: he starts writing away and then we kind of talk

331
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: back and forth and we plan it out in the

332
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: order and the sound. He listens to the audio that

333
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: I pull, and that's how he's able to build the report.

334
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: You know, That's how it goes. So the content of

335
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: the show is something that I'm super important about, I'm

336
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: super like happy about, I'm proud of. So in twenty

337
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: twenty six, I hope there'll be even more content than

338
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: there already is. That's a big goal of mine. Another

339
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: goal is to like keep the talkbacks going, you know

340
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: what I mean. I think I really feel the talkbacks

341
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: have more room to grow. They're a big part of

342
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: our show. But I feel like we're getting new talkbackers

343
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: all the time, people that are listening and leaving messages

344
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 1: for the first time, and then I'm playing them and

345
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: they're part of the show, and then they can join

346
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: the show at any time. And again, if you leave

347
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: a talkback and I don't play it, don't ever ever

348
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: take offense. It just means that that day, for whatever reason,

349
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: I could not get to it and listen. And again,

350
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: like leave if you leave negative ones, that's cool too,

351
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: Like it's a free world. You can leave them. But

352
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: just know I'm the only one that reads them, like

353
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 1: nobody else will ever read them. Billy and Lisa don't

354
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,320
Speaker 1: even know how to get the talkbacks. You know, nobody does.

355
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: Riley does. Riley used to read them when she was

356
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: in her own studio, but now she's behind the main board,

357
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: so she's not like looking at them. So it's just me.

358
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: So I don't know. Keep the positivity coming, I guess,

359
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: is all I'm saying. Have a fantastic day, everybody. Yes,

360
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: I'm going to the car wash because I did jump

361
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: ship on Billy. I signed up for the membership. It

362
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: just made more sense to me. I explained this on

363
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: the air today. I was with Billy on this because

364
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: I don't like the hassling. But I got a new car.

365
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: I go at least once a week in the winter.

366
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: I definitely do go more so to me. To pay

367
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 1: twenty dollars for the for the best washed that's gonna

368
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: clean the undercarriage four times is eighty dollars in a month, right,

369
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: And they had a deal twenty five dollars a month

370
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: for three months and then it goes up to thirty

371
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: five dollars a month. But even thirty five dollars a

372
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: month makes sense to me. The amount of times they

373
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: go to the car wash, I don't know. The math

374
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: was math and in the moment, and I'm glad I

375
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: did it because now I'm part of the members only line.

376
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: It's on the way home from work. It just makes

377
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: sense to me. So I understand Billy's point, but I

378
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: feel like I got a point too. I'm just saying, anyway,

379
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: podcast kind of all over the place. Sorry about that.

380
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: I'm glad you stuck with me all the way to

381
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: the end. Have an awesome day, everybody. I love you

382
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: guys so much, and we will talk. Mignona
