Was he still the owner or 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:14.520 was he about to be taken out into the woods 0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:19.320 and abandoned. Usually it's the opposite.

Name your host ary with 0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:56.520 producer Andy and our special guest contributor for this episode 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.560 is China Grat. This week's theme his attachment a human 0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.640 condition and you can avoid some fine attachment to a 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.400 significant other at that and some too inanimate objects like 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:10.080 coffee or cigarettes. To start off each story, we'll be 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:14.279 using our trustee sentence generator as that jumping off improvised 0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:17.080 a show in three acts. This is This is Americans Live, 0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:26.160 Stay with Us. Act one, the white water rafting trip 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:30.640 was suddenly halted by the unexpected brick wall and stroke 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:38.320 and stroke and strong reverse strong reverse strong reverse strong 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:43.839 as a wall reverse faster, faster, reverse. There was a 0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:45.760 brick wall in front of the river. Nobody had seen 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:48.120 it there before. Even when they got into the raft 0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:50.640 and they started paddling, they just saw water in front 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:52.080 of them. Then all of a sudden there was up 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:56.600 brick wall. Reverse strong, sure, strong to the wall. There's 0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:59.960 some there's some third wall. Can you help baby? Instead, 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:02.680 I'm just constantly sitting up there and telling everyone wants 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:06.279 to down. It was obvious that they had some marital problems. Alright, 0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:08.960 we were strokes, but with me. But you have to 0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:11.800 reverse stroke tone. That's what I've been doing. All you 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:15.080 do is boss people around. Was getting clom shark. You know, 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.320 I don't think there's something else getting closer, and it's 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:19.960 called d I D O R C E. The owner 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:22.600 of the white Water Rafting Company, realized they had something 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.080 else on their hands. Instead of providing a white water 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:29.839 rafting experience, they had stumbled upon a new Sarah Py phenomenon. Okay, listen, 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:34.000 there's a wall. I know about the wall. You keep 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:36.080 talking about the wall, and guess what I've been talking 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:38.320 about the wall for years that there is a wall coming. 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:40.200 We were headed right board. And if you don't go 0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:42.560 to couple of scouts with me, where's your done? There's 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:44.560 a literal brick wall. Why can't we Why do we 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:49.159 have to go back to we? We have to move forward. 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:51.760 I've been saying that for a year. Has to move backwards. 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:53.880 If we keep moving backwards, will never get past the 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:57.440 time that we haven't coming. They talked to the couple 0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:00.880 about their white Water Rafting company, which was now called 0:07:00.920 --> 0:07:03.960 the Whitewater Counseling Company. I wanted to know exactly how 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.279 they shifted from one business model to the other. What 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:09.080 was was part of our court ordered mediation. We decided 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:11.240 to save a little bit of money in our divorce 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:15.160 proceedings to just mediate. But then we've we we met 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.240 a few couples who had a worse off on us. 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.600 We talk about stuff all right, as a rough water. 0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:24.720 And you know, it's funny because what I it was 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:30.040 my suggestion to call the counseling company either or And 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:33.640 it was good. It was good. I was listening. I 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.360 had both bars out the door, you know what I mean. 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:39.160 But then once we opened of these counselors that aren't 0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.080 we can focus on other people's probably that's right, and 0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:43.160 our seems so bad I decided to talk to some 0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:46.560 other couples who had come originally for whitewater rafting but 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:49.440 ended up coming to the white water counseling rafting trip. 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:51.560 I can't remember what I said before, but I just 0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:54.440 want to see how it worked for new couples. So 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:58.880 we we go go on whitewater rafting trip and it 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:04.360 was action p e. But the the the instructors, they 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:08.600 started asking us about our marriage very much, questions about 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:11.720 the manage me and this me, and asked us how 0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:17.160 frequent are lovemakings? We said, is this invitation? I see? Yes? 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:21.400 And they said absolutely not. And it was a little embarrassing. 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:26.120 We had the egg on the face. This the that 0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:28.520 is how you see it. Okay, you see we had 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:30.560 the egg on this. What part of the country are 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:35.640 you guys from. We're from Refinescent. Refiniscent, h it's a 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:40.000 small village. There are only three people. Um, well, well, 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:43.360 now because we left, yes, we live. We get in 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:47.440 couples counseling. They encourage us to move out of Refiniscent 0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:51.920 into a small cottage. So then we we move into 0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:55.199 small cottage together because they tell us maybe the reason 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.360 why we feel so distinct is because we are not 0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:01.560 forced to be in close proximate the of time. What 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:04.200 they did not realize is that Sow everybody in russ 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:08.120 And lives anyway. So I decided to go visit Refs 0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:12.440 business and see the one sole person that was there. 0:09:12.480 --> 0:09:16.480 Now that two of the three people had left, so lonely, 0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:21.680 so lonely, and re vision.

I work um with the KFI, 0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:59.160 which is a very sort of famous AM radio station here. 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:02.160 I work on a Corolla show, another very famous podcast. 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:07.480 Been there for uh gosh, about six years and um, yeah, 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:09.319 I do a lot of voice over work and a 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:11.200 lot of fun. Can you tell us about the first 0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:13.839 time that you ever did radio? Yes, well, the first 0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:16.040 time literally I ever did radio. I used to go 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:19.559 on with my dad when I lived in Kansas and 0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:22.559 would give the farm report UM on a local radio station, 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.880 telling the farmers to bring in their tender vegetation at night. 0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:28.880 After this interview, I decided to go back and look 0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:32.640 up the archive of footage. Hey, m four forty plas 0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:35.520 before we get to the news of the traffic, of 0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:37.800 the weather, and the celebrity gossipel let's check it with 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:42.440 the noob, the nebie, our farm report, farm reporter genus 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:49.160 spand okay, colder, we got twenty four minutes to fill. 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:54.199 So what else?

Yeah? Doesn't everybody you know? 0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:06.360 You have that, like you feel like you're more high 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:09.680 pitched and you're talking faster. In fact, when I started 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:12.720 in radio in Los Angeles, um, almost twenty years ago, 0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:14.920 I sound very different than I do now. I have 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:17.840 somehow more more base in my voice, and I'm so 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:20.400 grateful for it. Did you ever take classes? I took 0:13:20.640 --> 0:13:24.199 voice over classes for you know, commercial and things like that, 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:26.400 but not to actually, you know, not like in a 0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:29.120 my fair lady way.

Yes, 0:13:33.960 --> 0:13:37.360 she was very good student, reminded me of a young 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:41.560 me before of her region. Why have you heard from her? 0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:43.520 Have I heard from her? Yeah, she's on our radio show. 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:48.880 She's also very successful radio personality. I don't know if 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:51.760 you've heard. I have not heard. I heard that. You also, 0:13:51.840 --> 0:13:54.160 you got married.

You have already had our pieces. 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:36.960 I'm going to break my toys. If you don't give 0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:40.080 a kid, you will all be be punishing yourself because 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:41.960 you will be breaking your old toys. Why would you 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:43.880 threaten to be with breaking your old toys? Go to 0:14:43.920 --> 0:14:46.520 your room. I hate the family. I hate that family. 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:49.520 Did you even know that that's what happened to your voice? 0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:52.280 I had no idea. No, she always had this really 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:56.480 sort of rich voice, um, you know, really sort of 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.600 deep but velvety. And no, I didn't know. And I 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:02.200 didn't know about the transitioning either. I didn't know any 0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:06.800 of it. Um so uh sorry, my producer Andy's laughing. 0:15:06.840 --> 0:15:10.560 Is there something funny? No? No, I'm looking at this 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:15.000 meme that has a tiger addressed as a a cat. 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:17.800 I've seen that one before, so you originally from I'm 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:20.120 here Gina, Like, no, I'm from Kansas City. I was 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:22.880 born in Oregon, but I'm from Kansas City. How come 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:26.840 you guys moved around so much? My dad was a broadcaster, 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:29.280 and you know, we just moved from market to market, 0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:32.480 just like you know, like an army brad almost so 0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:34.840 it was your dad like a morning shock jocks, no 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:38.680 sports announcer. So did you know any morning shock jo shots? 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:43.800 I'm sorry, what did you know any morning did you 0:15:43.800 --> 0:15:49.760 know any morning shoot shock shock jocks? Sorry? I did, Um, 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:51.240 there was a couple of kids. I don't know if 0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:52.640 maybe if he made it his way out here at 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:56.640 Johnny Dare was a big man cow we had syndicated. Um, 0:15:56.960 --> 0:16:01.120 I've met a lot of morning shock jocks, and uh yeah, 0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:02.800 I kind of fell in love with radio and in 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:05.960 that in that vein. Um, who is your favorite shock jock? 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:09.400 Shock shock jock? It has to be the king of 0:16:09.440 --> 0:16:11.840 all media. If everybody says Howard Stern, you gotta say 0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:14.200 Howard Stern right. Well, when I say shock jock, I 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:17.800 was thinking more like a shock jock, like a French jacque. 0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:22.320 Oh shock jock. Yeah, I see what you're saying. Yes, yeah, 0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:25.520 I do have a favorite shock jack. In fact, I 0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:28.720 was in the voice over class with a Frenchman, a 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:32.120 dashing Frenchman, and he wanted to get rid of his 0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:34.880 French accent and and have more of an American accent. 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:37.360 He thought he was better at it than he was, 0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:39.480 but it was always really fun to listen to him 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:42.880 try and have that American accent. What is that, gentle man? 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:45.360 How do you say it's time to kids? It tires 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:48.960 and lights the fires on the big one hundred thousand 0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:58.840 wat monster say, let's do it. Thank you so much 0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:01.440 for bringing that tape in. Absolutely is my pleasure. I've 0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:03.680 never heard that before. I mean, it's just how do 0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:10.240 you say sixty four degrees and forty five degrees? Za? 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:14.160 How do you say? Mountains? Lift? Texa four life? So 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:16.440 the second tape is from the next day. Yeah, I 0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:20.000 tried to get as much audio as I could. How 0:17:20.040 --> 0:17:25.000 do you say? Is six fifty four am? Money? And 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:28.399 this is how do you say? You know? It was 0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:30.320 really weird though, because I didn't realize there were so 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:35.600 many differences culturally between Americans and French people. So he 0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:37.800 would do like open phones, even though I don't think 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:39.800 he really knew what open phones meant. I don't even 0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:42.000 know what okay? So open phones is just like, you know, 0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:44.960 call about anything, and people would call about things that 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:47.400 I guess I don't know, Like they'd say things like, 0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:49.600 you know, I'm a day late in a dollar short, 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:51.880 or you know, they'd use these colloquialisms and he didn't 0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:54.439 understand them, but he had to pretend he did. It 0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:57.320 was some of my favorite audio. Did late for what? 0:17:57.640 --> 0:18:00.400 I don't know what? Color me pink? I just don't 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:02.720 even know what I'm thinking anymore. Color me a pink? 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:07.000 Request lines are not yet open, and I believe you 0:18:07.320 --> 0:18:11.400 mean what's bad? Let's let's think about blue sky ideas. Yeah, 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:14.320 how do you say what? I can tell you the weather. 0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:16.960 I can tell you this. I can tell you the weather. 0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:19.879 And see, how do you say traffic? Tell me more 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:26.800 about did you um? Did you ever have any issues 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:30.280 with any other um? Because I imagine maybe starting out 0:18:30.280 --> 0:18:32.639 in radio as a as a female, you may have 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:37.200 had some um run ins with some let's say men 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:43.800 that were not so nice. Yeah, competitive, maybe competitive? Absolutely, 0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:46.360 you know high school, you know, it doesn't even feel 0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:48.800 like high school. A lot of radio stations, especially you 0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:51.840 know old you know, sort of jock talk stations feel 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:54.520 like and felt like middle school, and you might as 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:56.560 well have a locker there instead of your work, coppy, 0:18:56.600 --> 0:18:59.119 because everybody's at each other's throats a lot of you know, 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:03.880 like my soogyny, um, a lot of dusting of sexual harassment, 0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:05.639 but you kind of deal with it because you know 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:12.760 that's the business. Would Gus's on, Hey, good to see here. 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:18.919 I got to change my pencil quick. Sorry are you? So? 0:19:19.080 --> 0:19:20.800 What time do you guys? Get off? I can't remember 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:26.680 right now? You got it here? Or get off? I'll 0:19:26.720 --> 0:19:29.480 see the morning starts at six am and then we're well, well, 0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:31.840 when are we adding here? I don't know. It depends 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:34.119 on what time she's leaving because we're so in her 0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:38.240 whole area. That's I mean, I get it, that's funny. 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:40.639 But you're joking, right, because that otherwise I'd be an 0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:43.440 hr issue. And you guys make this real hard on me. 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.280 I gotta tell you, we're gonna make any harder on 0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:51.399 you later after we follow you. So you had some 0:19:51.520 --> 0:19:53.879 issues with kind of just men that we're being a 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:55.960 little inappropriate in a lot of different ways. Yeah, and 0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:57.360 you kind of want to, you know, you don't want 0:19:57.359 --> 0:19:59.639 to be the whiner, but you also want to you know, 0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:02.480 set boundaries. So it's it's a delicate dance. Do you 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:05.359 have any plans for your future and radio? Where do 0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:06.760 you want to What do you want to do in 0:20:06.800 --> 0:20:10.360 the next five years? Oh, that's a great question. Um, well, 0:20:10.520 --> 0:20:12.360 you know, I love what I'm doing now and I'd 0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:15.520 love to continue doing it. I love working with great hosts, 0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:18.280 and uh, I would love to work with another female 0:20:18.320 --> 0:20:20.960 co host because you know, I have another show right 0:20:21.000 --> 0:20:23.120 now where I work with female and it's a lot 0:20:23.160 --> 0:20:24.919 of fun just to not have to do like the 0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:27.720 you know, like the gender cliche stuff. So I think 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.600 I think I'd like to continue working with more female 0:20:30.680 --> 0:20:32.560 co host in the future and do something a little 0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:35.560 more you know, maybe relationship based sort of you know, 0:20:35.720 --> 0:20:38.520 feelings based, more of a like sort of a love 0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:41.280 line for women, you know, kind of an Oprah vibe 0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:46.119 without sound like Welcome Back to Lovers and Love starring 0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:51.520 Gina Grad and me Tricia Thompson. Thank you, next color. 0:20:51.600 --> 0:20:55.080 You've got a little bit of a problem. Yeah, So, 0:20:55.280 --> 0:21:01.240 like my boyfriend is he's just not really ut. I 0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:03.280 feel like he doesn't respond to my text when I 0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:07.760 texted him. Okay, he takes a really long time, and 0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.240 I just feel like he's seeing somebody else's I think 0:21:10.240 --> 0:21:12.800 I think he's tea color color. Can I just say 0:21:12.880 --> 0:21:15.320 that this is not about you? Um? You know, I 0:21:15.320 --> 0:21:17.840 think you're doing everything right. I think that, and I 0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:20.159 think Tricia would agree that. You know, when when you 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:22.800 get a text, you expect to prompt response. And I 0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.520 don't want to be the hardass here, but um, I 0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:28.080 think he is cheating on you because I was looking 0:21:28.080 --> 0:21:30.520 through his text and I know there's some naked photos, 0:21:30.600 --> 0:21:34.680 but he says that there is. Sister. Oh boy, it's 0:21:34.760 --> 0:21:38.680 still problematic. Yeah, I don't know which one's worse. Why 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:42.360 does I mean, why would he have the naked pictures 0:21:42.359 --> 0:21:47.440 of his European Have you ever been to Europe? I 0:21:47.440 --> 0:21:51.159 don't really do that. Ye, listen to Tricia. I just 0:21:51.200 --> 0:21:55.560 have one question. Listen, have you seen this meme with 0:21:55.640 --> 0:22:01.240 the tiger? That's just like coming up at three? First, 0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:04.440 a word from our sponsors who make this high quality 0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:15.399 program possible. Stay with us, Act three. She hadn't had 0:22:15.400 --> 0:22:17.840 a cup of coffee, and that made things all the worse. 0:22:18.760 --> 0:22:21.239 It was a caffeine free camp. People came to this 0:22:21.320 --> 0:22:24.159 camp to try to kick coffee kick any kind of 0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:27.800 stimulans whatsoever. It was a process that disconnected themselves from 0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:30.439 the morning coffee. I don't know about I'm being told, 0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:36.400 I don't know that coffee is bad even when it's cold. Well, 0:22:36.400 --> 0:22:39.199 you don't drink that garbage now, we don't drink that 0:22:39.320 --> 0:22:43.440
