We'll see you can't make any promises. 29 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: I actually want to make it a point to mention 30 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: Disney at some point. 31 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: Well, I had to humble us. You know you can't 32 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: see positive. 33 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 2: Course of course, of course what it's. 34 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: Right though exactly Okay, we got to dive in. What 35 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: is the biggest challenge with working in radio? This comes 36 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 1: from Lindsay and Alabama. 37 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 2: The biggest challenge, like in general for anyone in. 38 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: Radio or auto radio is asking us, like, what is 39 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: our base challenge working in radio? 40 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 2: Well, I think the number one challenge just in general 41 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 2: of radio is you're trying to explain or paint the 42 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 2: picture to an audience with no visuals. And that's like 43 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 2: a general overarching issue that everyone has to deal with 44 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: in radio. How do I tell the story but get 45 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: enough details into where you can create an image in 46 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: your head and go, oh, I can relate to that 47 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: or I been there, I know that, Whereas in film 48 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: and television you can literally just put it right on 49 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: the screen. Everyone sees it and so which actually takes 50 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 2: less creativity and less work to just show it than 51 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 2: to explain it. Yeah, because not everyone can explain it properly. 52 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: I've never really thought about that until this moment. Yeah, 53 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: it is very difficult. 54 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 2: And it's also the oldest tale of Americans or people 55 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 2: in general, is telling a story and telling a story properly. 56 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: Being a great storyteller. 57 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: Great storyteller is huge, especially now that radio has kind 58 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 2: of changed into a newer era over the last twenty 59 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 2: years of it being more about a story than just 60 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: coming up ten seconds after the hour. And I give 61 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: you a con through ticket if you're the caller number 62 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 2: one seven, which noting that makes any sense, we have evolved, Yeah, 63 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 2: see exactly, I've evolved. Yeah, okay, So I would say 64 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: the biggest challenge overall for radio would be that challenges, 65 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 2: depending on what we do in radio are different, and 66 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 2: of some challenges on the local level as budget and 67 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 2: being able to do things with a very small budget 68 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 2: or no budget at all, or I feel bad for some. 69 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,399 Speaker 1: Of these people. General sweeting statement for radio. 70 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 2: It is it is or you have people of someone 71 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: who works at a station and they're the program director, 72 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 2: which is the manager. They're also the one that schedules 73 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 2: the music. They're also the one that goes at the 74 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 2: promo events. They're also afternoon drive and they do a 75 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 2: little bit of sales on the side, and they're all 76 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: over the place, spread thin and don't get compensated fairly 77 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 2: for all the work they're doing. 78 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: I would like to make a side note that I 79 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: can always tell when I bring Scuba on when he's 80 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: had like a rough day. I think we are experiencing 81 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of that. 82 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: Ohka, you think so okay? 83 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: You know, like in the document there's a little sidebar 84 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: you can tell the tone of my voice. I just 85 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: know you well okay, yeah. Yeah. 86 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 2: This is really weird though, right when when we sat 87 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: down and I don't know if it's just me, but 88 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: there's this weird echo that I'm hearing. Do you hear that? 89 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: Yeah? I don't know. It's just like these microphones in 90 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: the room, and it might because sometimes everybody puts them 91 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: really close together. Do you hear it still? Now? 92 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? I still hear, but it's like something internally in 93 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: my ears that I'm almost like hearing, and I don't know. 94 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: This goes into like the well, it. 95 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: Could also be the headphones. 96 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: Oh, let's see up, that's exactly what it was there 97 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: you go. 98 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: To aliens. Weh. 99 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: I was thinking like, well, what does this mean? Like 100 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: I'm able to hear something but hearing in a different way, 101 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: in a different level, but it's projecting from the walls, 102 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 2: and how is this happening? And I'm like, oh, it's 103 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 2: these headphones that are in front of me right here. 104 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: Technical problem. 105 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so never mind, no aliens, but could it be Disney? 106 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 2: I'm just kidding, Stephanie. 107 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: Okay, your biggest challenge, let me hone in on this 108 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: with you. 109 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 2: My biggest challenge without hurting everyone's feelings that works on 110 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 2: the show, my biggest ch or hurting affiliates feelings. My 111 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: biggest challenge sometimes can be a lot of things.

That's a 118 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 2: skill in itself because it trickles down to everyone. 119 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: Else well, and there's a lot of middleman happening with 120 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 1: a lot of different people involved in a lot of 121 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: different opinions, a lot. 122 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 2: Of cooks in the kitchen. Yeah, and then you get 123 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 2: and you set parameters because we have a lot of 124 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 2: commercial copy coming in a lot of requests, so we 125 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 2: try to make it dialed down in as simple as 126 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 2: possible and keep these guidelines so we can handle this 127 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: influx of commercials and make money on the local end. 128 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: But then you got a handful of people that just 129 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 2: don't seem to eff and understand, and you tell them 130 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: so many times that you then eventually have to just 131 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 2: do their job for them. And that's what it's come 132 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 2: to for a handful of people that I deal with, 133 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: rid up having to do their job because they can't 134 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: seem to get it or they don't want to get it. 135 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you and I have a very similar personality 136 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: type where it's that mentality of like, well, they're probably 137 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: not going to do it how it needs to be 138 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: done to I'll just do it. 139 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 2: And I'll complain about it a little bit just to 140 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 2: get it out. But I'll bitch and complain like I 141 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: can't believe this. Ah. But then I'm like, well, screw them, 142 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 2: we're not gonna do it. Then in two seconds later, 143 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: I'm like, but it's not in me to just not 144 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 2: screw to screw them and not do it. I'll do it. 145 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: Get it out of your system so then you can 146 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: do it exactly. 147 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: Yes. 148 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 149 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 2: Like for example, Lunchbox today came to me and he 150 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: was like, hey, I got this Todd Crystally video that 151 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 2: I want you to pull audio four for me. I'm like, oh, 152 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 2: no problem, sure, and then I pulled the audio and 153 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 2: I have Kevin pulled the raw audio, and then I 154 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 2: usually go through and find the pieces and it's like 155 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 2: a four minute video, and so then I go to them. 156 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 2: I'm like, so, what part of the four minute video 157 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 2: do you want? And he was like, well, I saw 158 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: a fifteen second clip on the news and I want 159 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 2: that clip. And I was like, well, I wasn't with 160 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 2: you when you watched that news clip of the fifteen seconds. 161 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 2: You've sent me a link with the four minute video 162 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 2: and it's gonna air in like five minutes. He's like, well, 163 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't watch the formauive video. I watched it, 164 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 2: Well you sent me, are you sent me a link 165 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 2: for the formnute video and not so the news clip 166 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 2: you watched. So then I have to go then in 167 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 2: because I'm really good at my job and little different aspects, 168 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 2: and this being one of them. I then have to 169 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 2: go in from the raw audio and then I find 170 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 2: from the four minutes three clips that are good, them down, 171 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 2: clean them up, get him back to Kevin to load 172 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 2: them into the system for Ray to play, and then 173 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: that well that's happening. I'm putting together a one sheet 174 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: of the clips and the context and everything that goes 175 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: with it and getting it all done about four minutes. 176 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: So basically, Scuba has eight arms and they're constantly moving. Yes, exactly, Yes, 177 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: I'm just picturing you with that, like you're moving an octopus. 178 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 2: Like what's that Disney movie where there was an octopus 179 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 2: and they're moving the arms all around? 180 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: Well, I was thinking of the villain and Spider Man. 181 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 2: Oh gosh, also also affiliate with Disney right now because 182 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 2: they on Marvel. Yeah yeah, Stephanie. 183 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: Okay, well that's a good one. No, that's a really 184 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: good one. And it also showcases like some behind the 185 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: scenes of things that you. 186 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 2: Do, yes, yeah, And then but I like the challenge though, 187 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 2: because if I didn't have challenges, it'd be boring. So 188 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: I actually don't mind the challenges, even though sometimes it 189 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 2: may seem like I'm angry about it, but that's just 190 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 2: my human emotion to be like what the hell? But 191 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 2: then be like, well, shit, how am I going to 192 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 2: fix this? How am I going to make it work? 193 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 2: And so then I just make it work. 194 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: I feel that, you know, it's I feel like from 195 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: a digital perspective, I kind of have too like digital 196 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: and there's on air and digital perspective. The overarching problem 197 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: I have is that people don't understand digital. Yes, people 198 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: don't understand technology. They don't understand digital. So not only 199 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: do I function as a digital person, but I also 200 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: function as it a lot of the time, which I 201 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,119 Speaker 1: also am learning all the time. But in general, people 202 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: just don't understand branding and an overarching picture of how 203 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: to really sell a brand and work a brand on 204 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: the digital side, could you just. 205 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: Post a boring ass still photo that we got from 206 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 2: getting images and put a cool title with it and 207 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: get it make it engaging. 208 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: Like people don't realize the time effort in things that 209 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: I analyze to decide what is posted. So that's like 210 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: one thing, and then the on air aspect is trying 211 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: to balance, Okay, what do I keep for myself and 212 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: what do I share with everybody? Because I'm a very 213 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: open book. I mean, Scuba knows me even just in 214 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: real life, and I'm like that, Like I'll literally blurt 215 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: out anything to him, Like why did you just tell 216 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: me that? Yeah, that's just my personality. 217 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 2: But do you want to have that filter of what 218 00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: goes in? 219 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: That's been hard to to find that walking line while 220 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: also being very authentic to who I am. Okay, So 221 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: those two things, and it does kind of lead into 222 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 1: this question from Melissa from Illinois. She asked how the 223 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 1: video clips were decided on Instagram and YouTube. Okay, we're 224 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: getting in some weeds here. I think people love when 225 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: we kind of share some inside based BTS, yeah, behind 226 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: the scenes. 227 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 2: And not the Korean pop group. No, not BTS, which 228 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 2: when I first saw that acronym, when I think I 229 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 2: was here because I just came from the pop world 230 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 2: working with Seacrest and BTS, I saw BTS and I 231 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 2: was like, well, BTS, like some I think you had 232 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 2: sent me something about something, and I was like BTS, 233 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 2: like for country, I was like, I don't really know 234 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 2: if they were going to really care about. 235 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:37,959 Speaker 1: That, okay, but if we did have a chance, we 236 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: should bring on because they've got like millions of people. 237 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 2: Oh I remember, like like six years ago, you would 238 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 2: just you would just go into their fan army and 239 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 2: use like a hashtag or at them in some way, 240 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, you're you could literally just 241 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 2: say I had Tomato super Breakfast hashtag BTS and you 242 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: get a thousand likes and twenty five thousand retweets, and 243 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 2: you're like, what, Yeah, just because the BTS army is 244 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 2: so strong, Yeah, very loyal? Yeah are they? 245 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah? Still fair? Oh you still a lot of 246 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: the Korean pop groups in general have very strong loyal followings, 247 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: which is awesome. So for for Alyssa, for me to decide, 248 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: so I'm the one who decides the video clips, Scuba 249 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: approves them and then Eddie does them. It's kind of 250 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: how the process, but basically I decide him based on 251 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: past tract history, like what are our listeners engaging with? 252 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: What's going to be like a hot button that makes 253 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: you guys want to comment? Or share it Like I'm 254 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: looking at it from a perspective of like, if I'm 255 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: a viewer, what's the most interesting from our show that's 256 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 1: worth to put visually. It's also that like is there 257 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 1: something that's so visually appealing over doing a game, then 258 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: I'll use that. But to Scuba's point of radio and 259 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: describing things for radio, there aren't a lot of things 260 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: we do that are visually meant for video. They're meant 261 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: for audio, and so it's it's taking in a lot 262 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: of those factors and then YouTube I really for more 263 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: long form or if I'm like, this is a really 264 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: great clip to not have broken down to a minute 265 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: and thirty seconds and to use it all. I also 266 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: try and make sure they're all different, because that was 267 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: a request that came from listeners, is like, you know, 268 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 1: we see a lot of the content all from all 269 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: the platforms, Like we want it to be different content, 270 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: and I only have so much resources to do that, 271 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: and so within the means that I have, I try 272 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: and make sure every video and every blog and everything 273 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: we put out is different from each other. 274 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, which is awesome, which is actually it's a skill 275 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: in an art form in itself. 276 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: Yes, it is a skill, much like you have many 277 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: skills and many hats that you're wearing.

They had to only 297 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 2: be converse and then it flipped into Nike became a thing, 298 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: which if you've seen air the Michael Jordan's story about shoes, 299 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: it kind of gets into that a little bit about 300 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 2: how shoes have evolved in the league, and they were 301 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 2: very very particular about the colors and all that kind 302 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 2: of stuff. It had to be very plain, Jame very boring, 303 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: and people like Converse Adiitias and like the boring your 304 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 2: brands back then ruled. Well, then when Nike came in 305 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 2: with Jordan, they kind of changed it up a little 306 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 2: bit and they had a color to it and things 307 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 2: got a little different, and then you had to pay 308 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 2: fines for these things. Well, the next person that kind 309 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 2: of changed the game shoes was Penny because then he 310 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 2: had these really cool out there shoes with Nike. And 311 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 2: I remember one game he came out, He's wearing these 312 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 2: pham posits and I'm wearing them right now, and they 313 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 2: were all blue, and it was illegal to wear shoes 314 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: that had no black. They had me predominantly black then, 315 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 2: So to keep his shoes on, he then took a 316 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 2: black sharpie and then colored in and these little lines 317 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 2: that they have on the shoe, and then they became 318 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 2: like kind of like a Memphis Tiger, I guess tribute 319 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 2: to because he played for that in college. So he 320 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 2: colored in his shoes with sharpie, and the shoes that 321 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 2: were released as the public were always just a straight 322 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 2: blue that came out in the mid nineties phone posits, 323 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 2: and this has been the most iconic Foam posit and 324 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 2: probably I mean, I would think Nike shoe in general, 325 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 2: next to Jordan has been the Pham posits. And so 326 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 2: they came out with this pack ten or fifteen twenty 327 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 2: years later where they did the shoes that Penny colored 328 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: in the black lines, which you can see Morgan listeners 329 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 2: cant he had to google it, yeah, And then they 330 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: did a version where he colored in the lines on 331 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: that particular game. 332 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: Shoes a lot. 333 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 2: They are like space shoes. 334 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, we like space shoes. 335 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 2: Yeah.

Okay, But I will say this, 377 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: even if you had gotten me a pair of shoes 378 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 2: that I already had, I love having multiples of it. 379 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: I know you do it like Christmas, and I was like, 380 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: I wanted you to have something. Yeah, I did go 381 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: in a different I did a different thing, okay, mostly 382 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: because I also just got scared it's gonna be like fake. 383 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: It's gonna be like a baby shoe, and I'm there, 384 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: what am I gonna do with that? 385 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 2: I've been sawing a gas station here in Nashville. They 386 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 2: were selling shoes that were Jordan's and Pennies and they're 387 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 2: looked very much like them, but they're so fake, right, And. 388 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: That was my concern. You know, I don't know how 389 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: to vet shoes, what that looks like. 390 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 2: So because it is a market where war making counterfeits 391 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 2: and stuff. And so another pair would be the Jordan 392 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: space Jams that I have. They're like, they're like the 393 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 2: pair of shoes I've always wanted, and they came out 394 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 2: ninety six. Couldn't afford them, and I got them later 395 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: in life, and they're the the pat and leather all 396 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 2: black space jam shoes, which are very much synonymous to 397 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 2: Jordan and his collection of shoes. And then I got 398 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 2: these other pair of shoes that I only wear on Halloween, 399 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 2: and I got an amazing deal. I don't know. I 400 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 2: don't even know how I got this deal, but my 401 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 2: theory is some husband was in trouble with his wife 402 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 2: and he had to just get rid of them. And 403 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 2: they were these rebox shoes that came out and they're 404 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 2: like old school high top rebox and they're hand drawn. 405 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 2: And it's a collaboration of Ghostbusters and Stranger Things, and 406 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 2: it's got hand drawn ghosts all over it, and like 407 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 2: the main like what's his name, that stay puff At 408 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 2: puff guy, Yeah, like the Marshmallow puff Up. 409 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: I can see him. 410 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: I don't know his and like a few other ghosts 411 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 2: on there, the Green Slime Guy, all hand drawn on 412 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 2: there and they're so cool and I got those for 413 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars on stock X and they're legit and 414 00:16:58,960 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: they're real. 415 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: And how much would they be normally? 416 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 2: Normally? I think they retailed at one twenty five, but 417 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 2: they sold out so fast. 418 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 1: They were like limited edition, limited edition. 419 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 2: They only did a handful of them, and I think 420 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 2: they're reselling for like in the high hundreds, close to 421 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 2: one thousand.

I think everyone wants this they only 426 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 2: they've only come out like once or twice. Are the 427 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 2: ones that are in Back to the Future.

And they 434 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 2: had these nikes that came out and they did a 435 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 2: charity auction release I think five or six years ago. 436 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 1: On the anniversary of they're ten thousand dollars one hundred thousand, No, 437 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 1: not ten dollars a hundreds. 438 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 2: So I think they retail because they were a charity thing. 439 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 2: I think they were selling for around five to ten 440 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 2: thousand dollars. And of course people bought them to resell them. 441 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 2: That's that's nothing. That's so annoying. People who buy these 442 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 2: shoes don't ever wear them. They buy them to resell 443 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: them and make money. I wish Nike would sell shoes 444 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 2: to people who actually want to wear the shoes. I 445 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 2: put them on my feet and I wear them, and 446 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 2: I enjoy them. I don't resell them for a crazy 447 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 2: amounts of money. I want them. And so like when 448 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 2: I go on the Nike app and I don't get 449 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: something like I wanted to buy. And this is as 450 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 2: simple as a pair of socks. These socks came out, 451 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 2: they were eighteen dollars, and Nike's like, Nike ass is 452 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 2: a new thing. Now we're like, we're removing bots and 453 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 2: making sure that it's valid. And then I couldn't even 454 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 2: get Oh sorry, you didn't get the socks you want. 455 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 2: There were socks. Couldn't even get a pair of effin socks. 456 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 2: I'm like, so the market of buying shoes is just 457 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 2: is ruined by resellers, and I wish there was some 458 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,199 Speaker 2: way to ensure that shoes were sold to people who 459 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: are going to wear them, or gifted to somebody to wear. 460 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, isn't that with like most things that 461 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: are really nice. I mean, it's like tickets, right, They're 462 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: getting bought to resell. It's like a whole resell in general. 463 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: It's just really bad. 464 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 2: It's awful. I wish they would sell things in a 465 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 2: brick and mortar, because then they would it would definitely 466 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 2: combat all this like online with. 467 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 1: I was gonna say it's online. 468 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, if it were only in store, no one's gonna 469 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 2: get out of the house and go wait line to 470 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 2: buy something. I would, though, and I will and I have. 471 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: Those shoes are crazy. I was watching a video while 472 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: you were telling they look like space shoes. They look 473 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: like an astronaut should be wearing them. 474 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, they light up, they have lights on them, and 475 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 2: they self laced. 476 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: They're so fast future baby. Oh I know, well I 477 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: would not have been able to swing that one. Yes, 478 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: if somebody found a way to connect me with somebody 479 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: who can connect me.

What did you learn about yourself going 507 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: on the dates? 508 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,959 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think it's been so wild, it's a 509 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: long time even. I mean I remember hours we went 510 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 2: on and did the pedicure and all that kind of stuff. 511 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: Eddie, you went bowling and then I went bowling. Did 512 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: you and Bobby do something? 513 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 2: He invited me to like watch him at the opera, which. 514 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 1: Is kind of cool, got it? And Amy? Did you 515 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: do something with Amy? 516 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 2: Amy and I went on a walk at Radner? 517 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: Okay? And Ray you went to a bar. 518 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 2: We went to bar and had a couple of drinks 519 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 2: and had lunch okay, okay, and you and I pedicures 520 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 2: any so, yeah, lunchbox, Mike Abby. Yeah, so those are 521 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,640 Speaker 2: all like the core. Yes, I didn't all I really 522 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 2: know if I learn anything about myself, which is does 523 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 2: that say anything about me? By not learning anything? 524 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the reason she's asking that is because, 525 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 1: like when I go on dates, like, you're learning stuff 526 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: about yourself. Yeah, when you're in an intimate setting. I'm 527 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: not saying like that all was intimate setting, but when 528 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: you were in a like one on one, you do 529 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: learn more about yourself based on how you interact with people, 530 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: or maybe a conversation sparks you to think about something 531 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: in a different way. Yeah, but that might be what 532 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: she's angling with you. 533 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 2: I don't know if I learned anything. I think I 534 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 2: don't think there's any really they also to learn about me. 535 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 2: I already know me, so it's like. 536 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 1: Do you know me? I don't need to know any 537 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: more about me? 538 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 2: A few years shy of fort you. 539 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:55,919 Speaker 1: Okay, did you learn anything new about any of the 540 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: show members that you hadn't originally known? 541 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 2: I think I learned some stuff about you that we 542 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 2: can't talk about, like work related, I believe. Yeah, so yeah, 543 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 2: there's so I did learn some things. Yeah, learned some 544 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: things about Amy that I also can't talk about on air. 545 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I know that you guys are annoyed by that. 546 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: None, but it was like personally, I mean, this is 547 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: off question yeah, yeah. 548 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 2: Okay, cool guy. Yeah, so sorry to nobody. Sorry to you, 549 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 2: but you already know. I learned about some personal things 550 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 2: about Amy, which I feel like a personal and like 551 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 2: you say, there's a filter. I love to tell you guys, 552 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 2: but I'm like, god, I shouldn't do that. That's probably 553 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: about it. I didn't really learn anyth from Eddie. We 554 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 2: just had a good time. 555 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 556 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 2: I learned that Eddie doesn't understand work, maybe because like 557 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 2: I still had it. It was twelve o'clock on a workday. 558 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 2: He was mad at me for checking emails. Like, dude, 559 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 2: I have to check my emails every once in a while. 560 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 2: I just can't even right now, you and I are 561 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 2: doing this, and I have my laptop of my lap 562 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 2: because I have to.

I just can't. 564 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: That's true. 565 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 2: In my role, I can't. I mean I could, but 566 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 2: then I'm going to come back to all these problems 567 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,239 Speaker 2: and some of them.

It's still underneath the bed, 623 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 2: locked up and ready to go. If anyone wants to 624 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 2: try me. 625 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 1: Okay, but like you haven't shot it. 626 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 2: Somebody's hold on, let me figure out YouTube video real quick. 627 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 2: Hold on? Yeah, no, I know how I like Eddie 628 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 2: taught me, like showed me what to do and like 629 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 2: told me how I should do, and I watched videos 630 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: and I talked to a friend. 631 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: I tell you right now, it ain't the same. 632 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. I shot other guns and loaded other guns, 633 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 2: so I figured it's like kind of like sort of 634 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 2: the same. 635 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: It is, but especially in like a high pressure situation, 636 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: like somebody breaks into the house, like, no, you forget 637 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: all things. You go on straight survival instincts at that point. 638 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 1: So very different. Okay, we also have I'm gonna mispronounce 639 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: her name s s s a h r I s 640 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: H sorry s a h h r I s h. 641 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 2: I would say, yeah, okay. 642 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: So I'm kind of kind of sounding it out. She's 643 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: from Houston. She wants to know what we regret personally 644 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: and professionally, Like, if there's something we regret. 645 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 2: And professionally, that's a great question. Probably living in the Woodlands. 646 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: You got money, yes, do you want you want to 647 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: second to think about it? I can share mine, Yeah, 648 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: go ahead. Yeah, yeah, So personally there is there is 649 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: genuinely a relationship that I had that I regret. I 650 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: don't regret the situation that happened because it made me 651 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: who I was, But I regret not seeing the signs 652 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: when they were right in front of me of. 653 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 2: Like some past relationships and stuff. 654 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: Of things that I definitely could have avoided a lot 655 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: of pain and heartache had I been not so now 656 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: naive to the reality that people can't actually be bad humans. Yea, 657 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 1: So I regret that personally, and that's generally probably about 658 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: my only regret personally, Okay, and professionally. 659 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 2: When you saw signs? Did you did you? Did you 660 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 2: see them? And people told you and you were like, 661 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 2: you're wrong, No, nobody. 662 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: That's what's crazy about it, is like it was always 663 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: things that was happening behind closed doors, and so nobody 664 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: could tell me because in front of doors it looked 665 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: very pretty and great and you know, it had a 666 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: good picture. But behind closed doors is where I saw 667 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: those signs, and I just there was a lot of 668 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 1: growing for me that was happening that I needed to 669 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 1: accept that I could be alone, that I was going 670 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: to be okay, that I was strong enough to get 671 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: out of this and move on to something new. It 672 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 1: was a lot of things that I was fighting that 673 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: stopped me from Reckingis I think recognizing the signs sooner? 674 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 1: I think they were always there. So that's personally professionally 675 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: nationally would be nothing like with work. But I do 676 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 1: regret there was right when I got out of college, 677 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: I had a friend that was studying abroad in Australia 678 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: and I really wanted to go visit her. I was 679 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 1: about to buy the plane ticket, but it was literally 680 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,959 Speaker 1: like this when I think about like the past of 681 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: my professional life Scooba, this was like the moment where 682 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,479 Speaker 1: had I done that versus this, everything would have been different. 683 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,679 Speaker 1: So I was applying. I was interviewing actually for iHeart. 684 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 1: I had already done my first interview is. 685 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 2: I Heart here in Nashville. No, this was in which time, oh, which. 686 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: Was the very very first job out of college. I 687 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: was literally like my sophomore or my summer after I 688 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,719 Speaker 1: graduated college, where you're applying, you're trying to find job, 689 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: and so I had applied and I didn't hear anything 690 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: for a month, okay, And in that time, I was 691 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: like right right in the month hit. I was like, okay, 692 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: well I'm not going to hear anything. I'm going to 693 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: go visit my friend in Australia. I've always wanted to go. 694 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: This is a great time for me to go. I'm 695 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: out of college, Like, this is the moment. Yeah, And 696 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: my mom was pretty adamant. She was like, I don't 697 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: think you should go. What happens if they reach out 698 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: to you and they need a second interview. I was like, well, 699 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: wouldn't they wait, wouldn't they Yeah, and I got I 700 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: went through all the phases of it, and she was like, 701 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: I just don't think so I don't think you should go. 702 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: I didn't end up going. I did end up getting 703 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 1: the job, and they did end up calling me. 704 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 2: But like I I called you, it was it an 705 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 2: in person interview, we need you in person. 706 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: It wasn't in person interview, but it was a month later, 707 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: so I would so it was litterally two months okay 708 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: that I didn't hear anything. And in those two months 709 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: I could have easily. 710 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 2: Gone off in Australia. And how many times you've been 711 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 2: there since then? 712 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 1: None? 713 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 2: Exactly. Mom, so who was definitely listening to this, She wasn't. 714 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: Wrong in that it did come and we didn't know 715 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: when it was gonna come. Ye, yeah, so you know, 716 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: and I would have hate to have missed that because 717 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: that's why I'm here now. 718 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 2: I also would think of it. A hiring manager would 719 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 2: be like, if you're to say, hey, I'm sorry, I'm 720 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 2: in Australia for a little bit, They're like, whoa, that's 721 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 2: so cool, dude, enjoy your time in Australia. Can't wait 722 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 2: to hear about it when you get back. 723 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: You would think. But I think they were because right 724 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: after that second interview, I started pretty quickly, okay, so 725 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: it was like weird. It was just a weird like 726 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: and there was no communication, so I was just kind 727 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: of in the dark. But that was my one regret. 728 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: I wish I would have just gone to Australia. 729 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, but but obviously something you could. 730 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 1: Do, yes, And it's harder now, like once you get 731 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: a job and it's so much harder, especially to travel abroad. 732 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 2: It's like you have the money to do it now, 733 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 2: but you don't have the time to do it because 734 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 2: it takes, you know, it takes you want to have 735 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 2: at least three weeks for that because you're changing time zones. 736 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 2: It takes forever to get there and forever to get back. 737 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 2: You want to be able to fully enjoy it and 738 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: see multiple parts of Australia, and I just go to 739 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 2: one place. 740 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I was going to go out for like 741 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: two three weeks, like that plan was spooky out there. 742 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 2: Does your friend still live there? 743 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: No, she just studied abroad for like the summer semester, 744 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: So it was like a free place to go and stay. 745 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,719 Speaker 1: So that's my one regret professionally is that I didn't 746 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: just do it. But I do think had I would, 747 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: things had the course of my life could have been 748 00:30:59,040 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: much different. 749 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 2: What else were you looking for? Like, where else were 750 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 2: you applying to or for a lot. 751 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: Of news stations, being an anchor, being a news. 752 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: Reporter, being like a news reporter anchor. 753 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean that was my original That was 754 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: originally what I wanted to do. I heard a job 755 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: just kind of happened, kind of fell into it. So 756 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: it's from a previous internship I had done with them, 757 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: and they're like, we have this opening, and it did. 758 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: Like I had to spend that month teaching myself graphic 759 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 1: design because that was part of the job. That they 760 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: needed and I didn't. My older sister was a graphic designer, 761 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: and I had creativity. I didn't know how to use 762 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: a program. So I literally spent hours on YouTube teaching 763 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 1: myself graphic design, a new skill that I would need 764 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: for that job. And so being able to do that 765 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: did allow me to succeed in that job. So there 766 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: was a reason. 767 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and even now too, you still do stuff. 768 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: Like now it's like nothing. I mean, I'm not a 769 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: I'm not a graphic designer. 770 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 2: That was not my job, but you still were able 771 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 2: to do things that most people can't do. 772 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm able to at least create it. I'm very 773 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: look at things aesthetically. 774 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Yeah, okay, so yeah. 775 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: Yeah it did. There were things that happened in that 776 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: timeframe that did help me to be where I am now. 777 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: So but that it's still like a dang, I really 778 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 1: just should have gone. 779 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: I know, yeah, totally especial because you were younger and 780 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 2: care free back then. I say, you're not young now, 781 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 2: but like at that point in your mind, you're like 782 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 2: you would have done some more things and enjoyed it. 783 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: My husband could be. 784 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: Done exactly A thunder from Don Under. 785 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 1: Those are my two. 786 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 2: Okay, what do you got? So for me, I'll start 787 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 2: with professionally. I think my one regret would be when 788 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 2: I moved to LA I was so gung ho about 789 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 2: f everything. I hadn't had kids yet, so it was 790 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 2: easier for me to take more chances and do things 791 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: that I can't do now. As much as everyone over 792 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 2: there on the on the show is like, you can 793 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,479 Speaker 2: carve out time to do you can't when you have 794 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 2: three children under five and you have a family. They 795 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 2: can say that all they want. They don't understand it. 796 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 2: But being able to manage a full time job that's 797 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 2: more than full time and a family, there isn't much 798 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 2: time for anything else. Something has to be sacrificed. And 799 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 2: I'm not sacrificing my family because I've already done that 800 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 2: enough and dealt with that. And the sacrificing the job 801 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 2: has as repercussions in the sense of then you have 802 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 2: problems and then it's just it's a whole it's a 803 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: whole thing. So my regret was when I moved to 804 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 2: LA I had the mentality off everything, I want to 805 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 2: do what I want to do, and I did do 806 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 2: that for a while. By having that job at Doctor 807 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 2: Phil and working on the Paramount a lot, and I 808 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 2: was so inspired that I was like, Okay, this is 809 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 2: a great starting point in my Hollywood career of working 810 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 2: in film and television. I'm on the lot. It's hard 811 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 2: to get on. I'm here, I'm here where they're making 812 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 2: all these things. I'm working for a show that matters. 813 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: So it was a show that was the thing. And 814 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 2: then I got that phone call for Ryan Seacrest and 815 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 2: I was like, well, this is really cool because this 816 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 2: is like this is you know, he's like the mecca 817 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 2: of radio as far as like wanting to work for somewhere, 818 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 2: and he was very well, you know known, and it 819 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 2: was like a thing. It was like you want to 820 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,479 Speaker 2: work working for Ryan? You're like, hell, yeah, I want 821 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 2: work for Ryan. Oh my gosh, that's incredible. But if 822 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 2: I had had a chance, I would have not taken 823 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 2: that phone call and I would have continued to pursue 824 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 2: the Hollywood side and seen where that would have gone. 825 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 1: So this is your also moment of like your trajectory change. 826 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, completely, it goes this way or it goes 827 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:23,399 Speaker 1: that way. 828 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 2: And really the biggest catalyst for me taking the Ryan 829 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 2: job was because I was again starting from the bottom 830 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 2: in a different space. Was somewhat similar, but a different space. 831 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 2: I was starting from the bottom and the pay wasn't 832 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 2: as high as what Ryan was going to be. And 833 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 2: my wife, who was my fiance at the time, was 834 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,280 Speaker 2: living in San Francisco and I was in LA by myself, 835 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 2: and she had told me the only way I'll come 836 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 2: to LA is if you have a secured full time 837 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 2: job of benefits and X amount of dollars for a salary, 838 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 2: and so well, this basically what she had asked for it. 839 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 2: I don't want to be alone anymore. After being there 840 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 2: for a loan for the almost three months, this job 841 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 2: came up and I was like, well, this is exactly 842 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 2: what she's said. And so it's like I really miss 843 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 2: her and I really want her here, and this job 844 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 2: is gonna take I don't know how long it's going 845 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 2: to take to get to where I want to be, 846 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 2: which probably wouldn't take it very long, because even within 847 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 2: the first month of me being there, I went from 848 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,720 Speaker 2: bottom of the rung to already in the middle because 849 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 2: I was I had, you know, I had skill sets 850 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 2: that translated, and I was a little bit older and 851 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 2: more mature and professional than the people I was working with. 852 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 2: So they knew that and saw that. And I came 853 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 2: from San Francisco, so I didn't come from a small 854 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 2: city or anything, and they like, Okay, it's a big, 855 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,280 Speaker 2: large market experience. He's done things in digital and entertainment. 856 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 2: We could use more from him and do more with 857 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 2: him than just where he's at right now. So I 858 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 2: was already moving up and climbing the ladder pretty quick 859 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 2: within that short time. So my regret was is that 860 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: not sticking it through and not doing that, because then 861 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 2: it was also in a space of networking. I was 862 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 2: on the Paramount lot like two feet for me was 863 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 2: Bumblebee from Transformers and Optimist freaking Prime was parked in 864 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 2: the garage like all these things were around me where 865 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 2: they shot all these iconic films on the Paramount A lot, 866 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 2: And I. 867 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: Will you reminded me while you're talking about this, we 868 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 1: Scuba and I really did go in depth about the 869 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: are like kind of the beginning of our careers and 870 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: how that all started on a previous best bit. So 871 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: if you do want to hear more of that, that 872 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: was some questions, make sure you check out some of 873 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 1: our previous best bits. 874 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 2: But go ahead, you'll hear that. Like I walked by 875 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 2: Jane Lynch like it was nothing. You walk by all 876 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 2: these massive people, They're just there and everyone everyone, I 877 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 2: kind of treats everyone on a similar level, and just 878 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 2: everyone's just there doing their work. And it was like, Wow, 879 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 2: this is so freaking cool. This guy's making props. Over here, 880 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 2: they're shooting something where I go to get my coffee there, 881 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 2: I can't go there right now because they're shooting a 882 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 2: scene for a movie coming out in a year. Like 883 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: it was so magical and so amazing that not many 884 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 2: people get to be a part of that. And I 885 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 2: walked away from it to take this next route, which 886 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,600 Speaker 2: worked out because obviously things worked out in a different 887 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 2: way and I was very successful in a different capacity, 888 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 2: but not where I wanted to be because I initially 889 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 2: got into radio because I wanted to translate of film 890 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 2: and television. Yeah, and so I had that opportunity and 891 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 2: I literally just like was like, nascrew it, I want 892 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 2: to go this way. So I get tempted by the devil. 893 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 1: No, you know, it's it's crazy looking back on your life, 894 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: Like both of us talking about those moments you can 895 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 1: tell that, Like we were literally presented with two doors, 896 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 1: I know, and we had to choose the door. Yeah, 897 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 1: and choosing a door when you're actually like, you don't 898 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 1: think in that moment, oh, this is going to impact 899 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 1: the rest of my life. Yeah, you're like, what is 900 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: this right now? Because it's really hard to see a 901 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 1: big picture in general. Right, it's hard to think, Okay, 902 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: well this could lead to that and that and that 903 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: or this could do this. You see it as two 904 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: doors right in front of you and you have to 905 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:36,919 Speaker 1: walk through one. 906 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 2: Oh yeah you can't. Yeah. And then I also thought 907 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 2: the Ryan door could lead back to television and film 908 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 2: because oh, he's super connected to that. At some point, 909 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,720 Speaker 2: maybe I could work in that direction. That didn't happen. 910 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 1: Hey, I mean everything does work out how it's supposed to. 911 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: We have learned that. Yeah, but it is it's also 912 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: good to look back and say, Okay, what would have 913 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: been that different? And how can I maybe do something 914 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 1: about that now? Yeah, because there is still stuff you 915 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: can do, you know, what about personally? Is there anything. 916 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,240 Speaker 2: Personally personally I think of It would have been better 917 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 2: for me to have just bit the bullet and been 918 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 2: like all right, I guess I'll get to talk to 919 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 2: my dad again, because I had He had ignored me 920 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 2: for a very long time, and so I was like, 921 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 2: well fu, So I ignored him forever, and then he passed 922 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 2: away maybe three or four years ago. And my regret 923 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 2: with that is not knowing a lot about him, which 924 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 2: sucks because then I can't really tell my kids a 925 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 2: lot about that side of the family. I know very limited. 926 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 2: I know that there was he was Native American because 927 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 2: my great grandmother was was Blackfoot, and then there's a 928 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 2: little bit like a side of me where we're like 929 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 2: Swedish or whatever, and he had a drinking problem about 930 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 2: all I knew, So I can't really pass on so 931 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 2: much to them that I know about him and that 932 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 2: side of the family. So that's my regret on the 933 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,320 Speaker 2: personal side is not taking the opportunity to be like 934 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 2: I just let by gone through bygones and let me 935 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 2: let me figure something out about him. But I have 936 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 2: a but I had a really hard time trusting him 937 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 2: and wanting to let back into my life because he 938 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 2: created those trust issues. So it was hard for me 939 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 2: to trust him again, to let him in in any capacity. 940 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: Because I also didn't want to get hurt again, even 941 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 2: though I should have just been like, ask screw cares. 942 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:12,839 Speaker 2: You've already been heard enough. At least try to learn 943 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,959 Speaker 2: something from him that you could learn about yourself or 944 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 2: learn for your kids, my kids. 945 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: I do hope you're giving yourself some grace in that 946 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: scenario though, because looking back, it's really easy to be 947 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 1: like I wish I would have been more forgiving. But like, 948 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: also when that was happening, you were hurt, like you 949 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: had experienced a lot of trauma and been through a 950 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: lot of things with that man to not want to 951 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 1: have that relationship, you know, so like it is harder 952 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 1: looking back now and you're like, dang, I wish I 953 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 1: had that history. I wish I had information. But I 954 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,439 Speaker 1: just hope you give a little space for yourself too 955 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: that like you were a kid that was hurting. 956 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. 957 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's still okay that it's a regret, and I 958 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: think everybody should be able to have that perspective and 959 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 1: look back on things. But I just do hope just 960 00:39:58,480 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 1: as you're talking about it, like you do give your 961 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: self some space to be like, Okay, yes I regret it, 962 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: and it sucks, but also like it was very valid 963 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: that I felt that way and then I didn't do it. 964 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 1: You know both. If there is one thing I have 965 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: learned in twenty twenty three, it is that two very 966 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: different things can be true. Yeah, and it sucks. It 967 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: doesn't make life any easier, but you find that very 968 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: polar opposite things can be true at the same time. 969 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 1: It's true and it sucks. 970 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 2: It suck, and it sucks. 971 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: It does. But I do hope, like for you, that 972 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: you do that for yourself. 973 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 2: Oh well, I'll try. Yeah, a more positive one. Though. 974 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 2: I regret not doing acid because there are so many 975 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 2: times that acid presented to me and like in high. 976 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: School, Sorry, are you hard right now? 977 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 2: I wish. 978 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 1: But there was the depths of the ocean. 979 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 2: Well because I because now I have kids and I 980 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 2: and there's consequences and stuff.

There's some opportunities I had around seventeen 985 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,359 Speaker 2: to twenty five of trying acid. I tried other things 986 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 2: like shrooms and other things like molly in ecstasy, but 987 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 2: it never did acid.
