Speaker 1: more than that, just two of the most creative, hardworking, kind,
Speaker 1: talented people will that you and I know, and that
Speaker 1: is our incredible social team, Amy Keen and Angela den o'hean. Guys,
Speaker 1: this is exciting because I just banged on the table.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but I'm excited because we're friends. But because
Speaker 1: there's a microphone in front of all of us, I
Speaker 1: get to ask you guys questions and we might get
Speaker 1: a question in you know, one or two and at
Speaker 1: some point, but I get to ask you guys questions
Speaker 1: as a fan of your work, because you know that
Speaker 1: I am such a fan of your work, and now
Speaker 1: it gives me legitimacy to ask all the questions that
Speaker 1: I want to ask because other people will benefit from
Speaker 1: it too. So welcome. I'm so excited. Thank you. I
Speaker 1: wish everyone could know that We've been talking for so
Speaker 1: long before this recording got started, just having fun. Making
Speaker 1: fun of mostly Will, so yeah, naturally, yeah, of course,
Speaker 1: but it's it's a pleasure being here. Um, Angela and
Speaker 1: I have you know, haven't really talking about what we do,
Speaker 1: so talking shop, talking talking shop on National Girls Women
Speaker 1: in Sports Day. Um, I mean we feel honored. So Angela,
Speaker 1: how are you doing? How are you feeling today? And
Speaker 1: this is a this is a big day to get
Speaker 1: interviewed by Will, Like who are we? What are we doing?
Speaker 1: This is next level? Yeah, we it's kind of like
Speaker 1: very meta because we tweet about the podcast and now
Speaker 1: we're you're gonna have the podcast. You're gonna now have
Speaker 1: to pick a clip of yourself. I know, this is
Speaker 1: this is tantalizing. So as a fan, you know, I
Speaker 1: was a fan of this team well before I ever
Speaker 1: thought about working here. And when I was talking to
Speaker 1: our our boss's boss who who hires everyone, one of
Speaker 1: the things I said to him was, you know, I said,
Speaker 1: I've been a fan of this team for a long time,
Speaker 1: but I am equally, if not more so, a fan
Speaker 1: of what the digital team does. And I didn't know
Speaker 1: you guys before I came here. I just came at
Speaker 1: it from a fan's perspective. And I remember thinking, gosh,
Speaker 1: if this is the environment that allows this kind of creativity,
Speaker 1: and these people who are putting out this incredible content
Speaker 1: work here, I know that's a place like I should
Speaker 1: be so lucky to get a chance to work there.
Speaker 1: And you two are at the forefront of that. And
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people that that go into
Speaker 1: the process of people making such a creative stuff and
Speaker 1: putting it out for the world. But I mean, you
Speaker 1: two are really the minds behind everything that goes out
Speaker 1: on our social media channels and so much more so,
Speaker 1: I was wondering if we could promise I'll stop embarrassing
Speaker 1: you guys and waxing poem Dick and actually ask you questions.
Speaker 1: But I just I get so excited. Um, what does
Speaker 1: a typical day look like for both of you? Because
Speaker 1: the thing that I've learned is how much that everyone
Speaker 1: doesn't see goes into both of your jobs. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: if if you are a listener of this, you should
Speaker 1: be very glad because if you saw me right now,
Speaker 1: you would see that I have lots of bags under
Speaker 1: my eyes. Oh thank you. Um that is mainly because
Speaker 1: we are on twenty full seven. Um, you know, hey,
Speaker 1: rap sheet posted about a big trade Saturday. I was like,
Speaker 1: do we do something? Do we do something? We had
Speaker 1: content ready and we were texting our boss and we're like, hey,
Speaker 1: should we do this? And he's like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe maybe not. Let's test it out, let's feel it out.
Speaker 1: We ultimately didn't, but like, that's kind of like we
Speaker 1: always have to. I wish I could have a cool,
Speaker 1: like like motto right now if you're like you stay ready,
Speaker 1: don't have to be ready, or something like wishing that
Speaker 1: that was like our motto on social. That is not
Speaker 1: the motto on social. It's kind of like, um, let's
Speaker 1: just have a bunch of stuff and like let's have fun.
Speaker 1: U okay, bub if you're following, um, I am an
Speaker 1: adult and I did go to college. Um So basically
Speaker 1: I would say I'll let and just way more of
Speaker 1: the fun stuff. I'm more in the in how we
Speaker 1: all communicate in in this digital world. Is we have
Speaker 1: everything in slack, so Angel and I are constantly in
Speaker 1: communication and a lot of where our ideas come from,
Speaker 1: you know, involved with the whole team, like the photo team,
Speaker 1: the video team, obviously the podcast team. Um is, we
Speaker 1: just want to want to make each other laugh. So
Speaker 1: a lot of like people actually find it that this
Speaker 1: is an actual thing. Like in our slack, we actually
Speaker 1: have a channel that's called memes where we just send
Speaker 1: funny things we see on the internet to each other
Speaker 1: and then sometimes you see them on Panther Social. So
Speaker 1: a lot of what we do is be online. So
Speaker 1: you know, my fiance and I he gives me a
Speaker 1: hard time because I'll be on my phone. He's like,
Speaker 1: I thought you weren't working. I'm like, well, He's like,
Speaker 1: you're just on TikTok and I'm like, well, I kind
Speaker 1: of working because I'm just looking. I'm looking at what's
Speaker 1: cool in in in the web, but you know, an
Speaker 1: online on mobile um. And so that's I would say
Speaker 1: that's a typical day. Now most of the times i'm
Speaker 1: in I'm in meetings UM talking about the memes and
Speaker 1: stuff that Angela is creating. But so that's that's on
Speaker 1: the typical day. On my side, I'm more of trying
Speaker 1: to make sure the ship is running were well, Angela
Speaker 1: is the one that's actually doing the cool stuff and
Speaker 1: tossing it over. I think the best part is that
Speaker 1: there's not a day that looks the same as yesterday,
Speaker 1: Like there's something new happening every single day, whether that's
Speaker 1: football news, like random trades, or people are in our
Speaker 1: mentions like you should do this, you should do that,
Speaker 1: and we can't do anything. Um But I think the
Speaker 1: biggest part is that when something is trending, you have
Speaker 1: such a short window to either jump on it or
Speaker 1: to figure out like business match or voices is something
Speaker 1: that we can do to kind of tailor to us. Um.
Speaker 1: But every single day we have what if conversations, So
Speaker 1: we have you know, channels, our meme channel will send
Speaker 1: stuff like what if we did this and what if
Speaker 1: we did that? And some of our best ideas have
Speaker 1: come from that of like what do you guys think?
Speaker 1: Is this funny? Or am I just is it just
Speaker 1: funny to me? Like how can we you know, create this?
Speaker 1: So I think honestly we are on seven, whether that's
Speaker 1: new music coming out, like is that someone that's from
Speaker 1: Carolina or you know, is it like like there's a
Speaker 1: Drake video that happened I think last summer and kind
Speaker 1: of blew up until we did some memes with that
Speaker 1: when we were going into football for COVID and different
Speaker 1: things that you can kind of tailor to our voice.
Speaker 1: But being in tune with even just music has nothing
Speaker 1: to do with football. But if we can you know,
Speaker 1: relate that to us and people are talking about it
Speaker 1: on social that's something that we can jump on and
Speaker 1: ultimately can be fun and you know it works. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I think we're not on memes, We're on tixap and said,
Speaker 1: so we just keep going and finding different things that
Speaker 1: we can kind of create. I got so excited. I'm
Speaker 1: sorry interrupted you, Angela, but I want to explain. Here's
Speaker 1: here's a perfect example, kab So for you know, one
Speaker 1: thing that kind of like popped off for us in
Speaker 1: the off season was us, you know, saying, Brandon Johnson,
Speaker 1: one of our videographers, we put him in Madden, and
Speaker 1: this whole idea came from it. This We've been talking
Speaker 1: about this for months when Madden sent us all these
Speaker 1: clips and we realized that, you know, one of them
Speaker 1: kind of looks like Brandon, our videographer, And this is
Speaker 1: a perfect example of us being like, this is kind
Speaker 1: of funny, Like he made it his icon on Slack
Speaker 1: and we were just ribbing him on it. And this
Speaker 1: is where Angela and Brandon were in our Meme channel
Speaker 1: was like, hey, you know, let's make this a real thing,
Speaker 1: Like could we make this a TikTok? Would this be funny?
Speaker 1: And they just made it one day and they're like
Speaker 1: is this funny or is this just us? And like,
Speaker 1: you know, I wish you could see all like the
Speaker 1: flame emojis that were in slack that we're like, this
Speaker 1: is amazing, this is fire. Now. Was that something that
Speaker 1: like we thought would pop off. I mean, we thought
Speaker 1: it was really good, but I mean that just goes
Speaker 1: to show you that sometimes the stuff that we make
Speaker 1: is to make each other laugh, and we were like, hey,
Speaker 1: this also works for our matches, our voice, just like
Speaker 1: Angela said, so that I think that's the really exciting things. Like, um,
Speaker 1: I give and this is a throwback, and I give
Speaker 1: angelot of credit because like her first like she started
Speaker 1: mid season UM in twenty nineteen, UM, and one of
Speaker 1: the first things she did was we had this, Um,
Speaker 1: this is gonna sound like a thirst travel it's not
Speaker 1: trying to be so I apologized, but keeping it real
Speaker 1: and the happy aff hour. Um, there's this photo of
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey where he was without a shirt, and um,
Speaker 1: we knew that that would maybe be something that some
Speaker 1: of the fans would want and and one of her
Speaker 1: first big viral tweets was about and you want to
Speaker 1: you you explain it because I think this is one
Speaker 1: of my favorite memories of you. Yeah, it was my
Speaker 1: first big win. So I keep this really, you know, close.
Speaker 1: But it was basically I was turning on Twitter and
Speaker 1: it was like, I'm gonna tell my kids that this
Speaker 1: is whoever right, and so it was like photo that
Speaker 1: they kind of look like, or you know, you're gonna
Speaker 1: trick your kids later on whatever. So I don't know
Speaker 1: how I thought of this. I was scrolling one day
Speaker 1: and I saw a photo of John Cena and I
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, what if we use this?
Speaker 1: And he was like flexing, and I'm like, what if
Speaker 1: we use this with a picture of Christian? And I
Speaker 1: didn't know I think Christians a fan because once we
Speaker 1: posted it, he was like, now you see me now
Speaker 1: started sharing it on his story and I was like yes. Like,
Speaker 1: when you get the players to comment and to share,
Speaker 1: at least you know they like your content, they're kind
Speaker 1: of engaging, but then they also get you know, their
Speaker 1: followers in tune with the stuff that you're doing too,
Speaker 1: So that's kind of how you gauge a win from
Speaker 1: a player's standpoint. But that was my first big win
Speaker 1: and I was like, Okay, I can do this. You know,
Speaker 1: I got this. We can keep rolling with it. So
Speaker 1: she had many sense, but that one is that's the
Speaker 1: o G one that I love, the first one, always
Speaker 1: a special And that was definitely a what if conversation
Speaker 1: because I texted Amy and I was like, I don't
Speaker 1: know if we can do this. I know we usually
Speaker 1: don't post the guys like this, but what if we
Speaker 1: did this. Here are two photos that could work. And
Speaker 1: so we sent it off for approvals. It was approved,
Speaker 1: and we posted it and it did really well, did
Speaker 1: very I was actually that was I was going to
Speaker 1: ask you guys about that, which is like, what are
Speaker 1: what are times that you were like, I don't know
Speaker 1: if I'm the only one that thinks this is funny,
Speaker 1: but things have blown up. But you just gave to
Speaker 1: awesome examples of that, and that is why I, you know,
Speaker 1: without knowing you guys, I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: these people are the greatest. Remember meeting with both of
Speaker 1: you virtually via Slack, and I remember Angela sent me
Speaker 1: a Slack message and she was like, Hi, I'm Angela
Speaker 1: An the Social Team just want to welcome you here.
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh my god, this is someone
Speaker 1: from the Social team, Like the Social ty's a big deal.
Speaker 1: How did you, Amy, And I've asked you this before,
Speaker 1: how do you as someone who is has been the
Speaker 1: voice of the Panthers and then when Angela you hire Angela,
Speaker 1: how do you know you're gonna give this person the
Speaker 1: keys to the kingdom? You're giving them the password and
Speaker 1: you just know that they're going to fit the Panther's
Speaker 1: voice because Angela is so great at it and so
Speaker 1: creative and and so funny and inventive. But I imagine
Speaker 1: that's a lot of pressure for you, as the manager
Speaker 1: of the department to say, Okay, you know, I don't
Speaker 1: even know if i'd want someone else tweeting for me.
Speaker 1: And it's going out to three million people and we
Speaker 1: have a voice that we've established, So how did you
Speaker 1: know that Angela was the right person for that? I
Speaker 1: love this question because I can talk about Angela. UM.
Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing is, like anything, is you
Speaker 1: can't have another sounds like I'm I'm doing coaches speak
Speaker 1: right now, but it's okay, well we'll well, we'll give
Speaker 1: you a rating one to ten. You can't have any
Speaker 1: of those no Iron team. That's that's the one I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go with. UM. So I think I think with
Speaker 1: Angela in particular, is she was like, hey, I'm totally
Speaker 1: willing to bring myself to the table, but I'm also
Speaker 1: willing to like because when you talk for a brand,
Speaker 1: it's different, it's hard, and and I think we we
Speaker 1: she jumped right in because we started the season and
Speaker 1: I was like, I need help, here's a lifeline, and
Speaker 1: Angels like I'm on and I'm coming aboard. Um. So,
Speaker 1: if you can imagine one person for the social team,
Speaker 1: is is not a lot of hands. So when Angela
Speaker 1: came on, she just fit naturally. She she totally was
Speaker 1: able to see something and bring her own like flavor
Speaker 1: to to the team. And she's way like I mean,
Speaker 1: just looking at how to her, she's way cooler. I
Speaker 1: mean just I can't even keep up with how cool
Speaker 1: she is. I don't want to compare, but she's just
Speaker 1: very cool then, just very very very cool. I am
Speaker 1: um a third ye old mother, and those of you
Speaker 1: who are going to be in the comments. You should
Speaker 1: just be nice. But so I am not as cool,
Speaker 1: but like I would say that I'm I'm in like
Speaker 1: the mom group at the playground that like when you
Speaker 1: could be at playgrounds, That's that's who I would be
Speaker 1: and I and so Angela's definitely has brought a new relevancy.
Speaker 1: Like she wanted not not to go into another example
Speaker 1: of one of Angel's viral tweets, but like she had
Speaker 1: when the snowflake emoji when my favorite, that's my favorite,
Speaker 1: and I you know, like when that was really popular,
Speaker 1: Angel sent to me and I was like, what is
Speaker 1: that context? I was like what, She's like, let's do
Speaker 1: the snowflake thing and I was like, um, is it smelling?
Speaker 1: Like what is this on to X? And She's like no,
Speaker 1: it's like with the sweetie and I'm gonna like mess
Speaker 1: this up. It's quave Amy is incredibly cool. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: of course saying I can't wait for our boss to
Speaker 1: listen to this and be like, can you guys stop
Speaker 1: saying how cool everyone is? But this is this is
Speaker 1: we're cool. Okay, shout out to both of you guys
Speaker 1: for I just send a text and I was like
Speaker 1: look snowflake and noodles. They just go together. Can can
Speaker 1: we do something like this? And she's like, Canney send
Speaker 1: me an example of what you're talking about? What are
Speaker 1: we thinking here? And I was like, Okay, here's what
Speaker 1: I'm thinking. Let's see if it works. If not, totally fine. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And if anyone doesn't know what we're talking about, just
Speaker 1: you know, Google put the snowflake emoji in there and
Speaker 1: then the bullet. That's what I had to do. So
Speaker 1: sometimes I need educating, as you can see. But I
Speaker 1: think the biggest thing is, like we love making cool
Speaker 1: stuff and everyone has their own, um like own way
Speaker 1: to bring it to the table. Like Will is Will
Speaker 1: and he's you know, just who he is, So like
Speaker 1: we bring willness to our content. Yeah, it's it's amazing.
Speaker 1: And like, you know, we have Brandon Todd, Carson Smucker,
Speaker 1: like everyone has their own way of creating content. And
Speaker 1: I think we've been able to um allow like creativity
Speaker 1: to flourish because we're like, hey, like Brandon Todd, for example,
Speaker 1: when his photos are incredible, Will often be like, hey,
Speaker 1: how do you want to you know, showcase your photos
Speaker 1: at the end of the season, and him and Angela
Speaker 1: and Brandon and Daniel, our designer will kind of talk
Speaker 1: it through. So we have a lot of creative people,
Speaker 1: and I think we've found a good rhythm of finding
Speaker 1: a balance. I mean, obviously we like to keep it
Speaker 1: fun and that's why our memes. UM, I love that
Speaker 1: when other people talk about Panther Social like the memes
Speaker 1: and we're like, yes, because we work really hard on
Speaker 1: a lot of them don't ever see the light of day,
Speaker 1: and we've had a few that have not done well.
Speaker 1: But this is our podcast and so we don't need
Speaker 1: to talk about it because um, we have that control.
Speaker 1: But um, I would say it's it's a lot of
Speaker 1: it is just keeping it fun and light. So well, okay,
Speaker 1: so not to go in the other direction, but how
Speaker 1: hard is it? You see, you guys see a lot
Speaker 1: of comments all the time, and you're taking that in
Speaker 1: even though it's not you know, you two don't have
Speaker 1: anything to do with Roster moves or wins or losses.
Speaker 1: But you are also, um the conduit through which a
Speaker 1: lot of people find their information or tweet back or
Speaker 1: you know, d m back to the Panthers accounts. Do
Speaker 1: you get to have a separation, can you separate that
Speaker 1: because I just feel like I would take it all in,
Speaker 1: even though I know it's not personally me. Can that
Speaker 1: ever affect your day? Well, I think we've set up
Speaker 1: something really that it's now con commonplace with sports teams,
Speaker 1: UM and their handles is like we welcome like tweet
Speaker 1: at us, say something yeah yeah, because sometimes we will
Speaker 1: will snap off, right, angel, I hope I use that
Speaker 1: in the corruit context. Um, we will pop off, snap off. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Those are my favorite, like the comments and it's like
Speaker 1: it's like the comment equivalent of like that half smiley face.
Speaker 1: I'm like, it's so great. Yes, I'm gonna put a
Speaker 1: printed on a T shirt so we we will definitely
Speaker 1: um clap back. I think that's the term I was
Speaker 1: really looking for. So yeah, you know it's it's it's
Speaker 1: it's the mom way to say it. Um. So we
Speaker 1: will definitely do that. And I love that. I would
Speaker 1: rather have fans reach out to us and say whatever
Speaker 1: they want because I that ultimately just helps us know
Speaker 1: what the fans are talking about. And like you said,
Speaker 1: we know who you are, so we I definitely have
Speaker 1: saved a few tweets. I'm like, I'm gonna come back
Speaker 1: to this guy if if we this so this scenario
Speaker 1: happens or not so. I I think that's um the
Speaker 1: fun piece of it. Now, the second part of your question.
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear Angela's thoughts, Um, And I love
Speaker 1: that Will hasn't had a chance to talk. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I know I want to let him in, but I just,
Speaker 1: like I said, because there's a microphone, I get to
Speaker 1: ask you guys all the questions that I've always wanted
Speaker 1: to ask, and I will. If you can jump in,
Speaker 1: please do. If you if you're an avid listener of
Speaker 1: The Happy Half Hour, just know that Will is just
Speaker 1: on zoom, just looking at us and in marvel of
Speaker 1: our greatness. So no, I mean and would build our boss.
Speaker 1: I'm just I didn't mean the greatness like we're the
Speaker 1: best ever. I just mean the best ever. Well, it's
Speaker 1: funny because Will was like, do you want me? He
Speaker 1: was like, do you just want to do it yourself?
Speaker 1: You know, if you if you want to, it's you know,
Speaker 1: National Girls and Women's in Sports Day, and you know,
Speaker 1: I think he was just trying to be considerate and
Speaker 1: I was like, no, we need to do it together.
Speaker 1: And I think we'll just knew that this is the
Speaker 1: way it was gonna go. Ye. Just seeing him on
Speaker 1: this though, shows he's a true supporter. So um, but
Speaker 1: so I will I'll toss it over to and and
Speaker 1: what she thinks about kind of like finding a separation,
Speaker 1: but it's it's definitely hard, but I will say I
Speaker 1: would rather have people tweeting at us all day than
Speaker 1: to not. Yeah, and yeah, I think I've been able
Speaker 1: to kind of separate it of knowing that, like I
Speaker 1: can't do anything related too football, so it's like there's
Speaker 1: not much we can do. I think the things where
Speaker 1: it hurts is if we like make a typo or
Speaker 1: this day, we should have caught that and somebody else did,
Speaker 1: so either we try to fix it or we're like,
Speaker 1: you know what, we're human, we mess up, Like we're
Speaker 1: just gonna roll at the punches and see how it goes.
Speaker 1: But I think it's funny that A mentions, you know,
Speaker 1: she saves different tweets that people send us, because there's
Speaker 1: times where we you know, we know, we don't know
Speaker 1: these people that tweet us, but we know them because
Speaker 1: they're always in our mentions. So I'll be like, hey,
Speaker 1: this guy keeps saying this or like, look who's saying
Speaker 1: this again, so you know, we keep off rads here
Speaker 1: again like what he said, but I will say like
Speaker 1: the positive part to to what angel says, we really
Speaker 1: like not to go into the humor side, but like
Speaker 1: we often, like I find it really exciting when we
Speaker 1: get to celebrate our fans um and okaybe you've known
Speaker 1: because we've we've sent you stuff from Panther Social and
Speaker 1: like without even necessarily knowing you, and you know, we
Speaker 1: send flowers, we send cookies, like, we try to try
Speaker 1: to be really involved in our you know, especially our
Speaker 1: our Twitter fan because that is where a bulk of
Speaker 1: our audiences um. But we definitely try to make sure
Speaker 1: people know that like we were real humans and we
Speaker 1: and we really care about people. So I think that's
Speaker 1: I think if I had to put a legacy of
Speaker 1: a Panther as well, I love the memes that can
Speaker 1: I can toss it over to Daniel and Angela. I
Speaker 1: think the heart of what I love about the Panthers
Speaker 1: Social team and that what we built is that, you know,
Speaker 1: we really try to care about our fans um and
Speaker 1: be as much as um a positive force as we
Speaker 1: can and then for those who need a little bit
Speaker 1: of a snap off clap back, we can dish it.
Speaker 1: But um, the main thing I think is like we're
Speaker 1: we try to have conversations and not just be like
Speaker 1: a brick wall where like they're just sometimes we have
Speaker 1: to be, but other times we just try to have conversations,
Speaker 1: and I think it's go ahead engine. That's the thing
Speaker 1: that people don't realize that we're in the brand account
Speaker 1: so much more than we are in our own account.
Speaker 1: So it's like we'll see what people are tweeting just
Speaker 1: on the timeline without even mentioning us, and we're kind
Speaker 1: of in tune with what's going on with them more
Speaker 1: so than with our friends because we have to be
Speaker 1: in that account almost seven to where I don't even
Speaker 1: really tweet on my own account, and I know Amy
Speaker 1: is the same way, but like we're really not you know,
Speaker 1: we're not on our own socials because for a time, yeah,
Speaker 1: time or creativity, I mean that's your job all the time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't. I just realized a few of my friends
Speaker 1: I've just followed on my own personal because I don't
Speaker 1: even go on and I always see them on panthers
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh wait, we're not actually internet
Speaker 1: friends because I feel like this was going to be
Speaker 1: awkward when they get this notification and good friends for
Speaker 1: a long time. Um, well, do you want to say anything? Sorry? Yeah,
Speaker 1: So I whenever I tell people I work for the Panthers,
Speaker 1: they always just ask, oh my god, do you work
Speaker 1: for the social media team? Happened to me last week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're superstars. So my question is, how does a young
Speaker 1: girl in sports get to be you guys? How does
Speaker 1: someone get to be running the social media accounts for
Speaker 1: an NFL team? Well? We for the of time, I'll
Speaker 1: keep it super brief. And Angela did the same thing.
Speaker 1: I think you just you you are active on social media.
Speaker 1: I think that's when Angelo how one we hired her.
Speaker 1: She was definitely a jack of all trades. She was shooting,
Speaker 1: editing like and she was also super active on her
Speaker 1: social media when I creeped on her, um, and I
Speaker 1: think that's that's a big piece of like, if you're
Speaker 1: going to be in social, you have to be on social,
Speaker 1: and then you have to figure out a way to
Speaker 1: separate brand social if you can, and um, your social
Speaker 1: just and that's just things are changing and so it
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be that way, but I think that
Speaker 1: is a helpful mental health thing to kind of separate
Speaker 1: a little bit. But and what would you say in
Speaker 1: in ten fifteen seconds or less. Yeah, I would just
Speaker 1: say create your own social as your own brand, and
Speaker 1: think of it as a way of like you're showing
Speaker 1: this hiring manager what they would be getting out of
Speaker 1: you or how you would be creating content for them.
Speaker 1: I think to like creating our portfolio. They have like
Speaker 1: wis pages for free. If you can create your own
Speaker 1: portfolio and show the stuff that you've done or even
Speaker 1: highlight some of the tweets or things you've done for
Speaker 1: yourself or other brands, that's the biggest way to kind
Speaker 1: of show your work. But that's that's the key, is
Speaker 1: to be active on social even though I just said
Speaker 1: that I'm not active on social, but when you're looky
Speaker 1: and you need to be active and showing what you
Speaker 1: can do. And and Angela's resume, um, she she failed
Speaker 1: to mention this Angel's resume. She made it as like
Speaker 1: a Twitter timeline. So it was so cool and I
Speaker 1: was like when I saw that, and I was like, oh, okay, R.
Speaker 1: I was hired. Okay, let's let's let's bring this person in.
Speaker 1: Let's see what she's got. And it was awesome. So
Speaker 1: I would say that would be will my answer. And
Speaker 1: before we go, Um, I wish we could talk for
Speaker 1: another hour. But before we go, as I said from
Speaker 1: the start, you not only do you run all of
Speaker 1: these accounts, and as you said, your Aimy, you're in
Speaker 1: all these meetings and Angela, you're shooting stuff and editing
Speaker 1: and there's so much going on, but you also both
Speaker 1: took the time to be at the forefront of today
Speaker 1: the National Girls and Women in Sports Day, what is
Speaker 1: going on and with with the anthers today, because we've
Speaker 1: got some cool stuff that you guys have worked really
Speaker 1: hard on. Yeah, we do have some cool stuff. So
Speaker 1: our first piece is going to be um an article
Speaker 1: that will highlight different women in the organization's kind of
Speaker 1: their journeys throughout sports when they were playing, you know,
Speaker 1: when they were younger, and kind of what they've learned
Speaker 1: throughout their careers. Um. We have some fun tiktoks to
Speaker 1: to kind of show people's journeys into you know, their
Speaker 1: sports career, but also to how they got here in
Speaker 1: their current jobs. With the Panthers UM and then we
Speaker 1: will be announcing a fellowship that was really cool. We
Speaker 1: created UM just by yeah, just by talking and some
Speaker 1: of our meetings, and we really wanted to do something
Speaker 1: meaningful and be active about it. So it will be
Speaker 1: kind of a rotational program that, you know, when we
Speaker 1: will be able to come in and work with different
Speaker 1: departments in the organization to kind of see how we
Speaker 1: structure things, how we do things. But hopefully it's kind
Speaker 1: of a you know, a big educational piece and kind
Speaker 1: of launching different careers. That's a mic drop moment, Kabe,
Speaker 1: if I've ever heard one. It's incredible. It's incredible. Thanks
Speaker 1: for having us on the Gosh, thank for doing this.
Speaker 1: This is the highlight of my week. I'm so excited.
Speaker 1: Can we do it again at some point? I still
Speaker 1: have a list of seventy five questions. We can't wait
Speaker 1: in Matt Hogan, who um, I know didn't give a
Speaker 1: chance to say much. I can't wait to pick out
Speaker 1: what sound bite it's going to be for this broo. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Maybe if we do this again, also, maybe I'll let
Speaker 1: will get more than one question in Okay that I
