Speaker 1: Ron Podcast. It's fun back again, coming at you, damn son.
Speaker 1: It's another episode of the Roun Bagary podcast. We out here,
Speaker 1: Let's do this forty minutes of NonStop it's commercial free
Speaker 1: coming up and remember to say the phrase it pays
Speaker 1: and you have a chance of winning one million dollars,
Speaker 1: can we Ron? Why are you talking like that? Like
Speaker 1: like talking like everything you just said. Also the way
Speaker 1: you said it, it's like you're trying to bring some
Speaker 1: high energy radio announcer vibe to our opening. So you
Speaker 1: picked up on that. It was very hard not to. Yes,
Speaker 1: I picked up on it. Well good because that's exactly
Speaker 1: what I was trying to do. Oh okay, you've got
Speaker 1: a good here for broadcasting, Carolina. In truth, I'm just
Speaker 1: trying to switch things up. I was listening to some
Speaker 1: current top forty radio DJs and I thought, Wow, these
Speaker 1: guys are shot out of a cannon, and maybe I
Speaker 1: should try that style on and see if it fits.
Speaker 1: So you heard it for yourself, and I think we
Speaker 1: can both see that it fits like a glove. The
Speaker 1: Ron Burgundy Podcast NonStop Music, The hits you want, the
Speaker 1: way you want them. Boom Wait, we will think nim
Speaker 1: ming bing ming bing. Let's let's just cool it for
Speaker 1: a second. High energy. You are, You're shot out of
Speaker 1: a cannon. We got it, You're my father. It's very
Speaker 1: powerful and cinematic. Listen, Carolina. I will not apologize for
Speaker 1: trying to be innovative with this program. I just think
Speaker 1: people want more like the real Ron Burgundy. They want
Speaker 1: the comforting voice that they've listened to for years. I
Speaker 1: can't argue with you on that, Carolina. I just I
Speaker 1: just sometimes feel part of being a good broadcaster is
Speaker 1: learning to evolve with the times. I agree, Yeah, you
Speaker 1: have some sympathy for that viewpoint, don't you sure. I
Speaker 1: think that's very important. I'm sure there's a minority of people,
Speaker 1: and I'm talking a very small group, maybe five or
Speaker 1: six people who think Ron Burgundy isn't up to speed
Speaker 1: with the world these days. I mean, you still say
Speaker 1: the word jugs, So yeah, I'm never gonna not say that.
Speaker 1: But you know, look, they take a look at me
Speaker 1: and assume that guy, yeah, he's on the wrong side
Speaker 1: of history. I'm aware I speak and look a certain way,
Speaker 1: and I want to distance myself from a lot of
Speaker 1: my so called peers who've shown a lot of ignorance lately. Wow,
Speaker 1: that's actually very observant and self aware. And I'm sorry
Speaker 1: to be, you know, sappy, but when you speak like that,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm proud of you. Ron. Well, thank you, Carolina.
Speaker 1: You know, the other day I was talking to another
Speaker 1: broadcaster who shall remain nameless, but let's give him a
Speaker 1: pseudonym just for this conversation, which will be Tucker Carlson.
Speaker 1: Do you know what a pseudonym is? You might want
Speaker 1: to just go with John Doe or say Mr or
Speaker 1: Mrs X. No, everyone does that. I'm more creative than that.
Speaker 1: You know. I made up a totally fake name, Tucker Carlson. Ron,
Speaker 1: there's actually a broadcaster named Tucker Carlson. No really, Yes,
Speaker 1: I literally just pulled that name out of thin air.
Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson. What does he do? Local weather somewhere. No,
Speaker 1: he's he's pretty famous. Unfortunately, is he a child actor
Speaker 1: who dresses as a cowboy? Anyway, for the purposes of
Speaker 1: this conversation, the person I was talking to was fellow broadcaster,
Speaker 1: not the child actor who specializes in westerns Tucker Carlson.
Speaker 1: I never said he was a child actor. I think
Speaker 1: that's just something you assumed the point is I'm talking
Speaker 1: to Tucker Carlson end quotes on the phone, and he
Speaker 1: started going off on pronouns, saying, Oh, I can't keep
Speaker 1: track of it. These people are constantly changing the language,
Speaker 1: and I can't keep up men or men and women
Speaker 1: or women. And I said to Tucker Carlson, just hold
Speaker 1: it right there. You're being ignorant. Shame on you. If
Speaker 1: we weren't on the phone, I'd Sluggy in the face
Speaker 1: for being so closed minded. Wow wait a second, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: I just can't believe that sentence just came out of
Speaker 1: your mouth. It's really amazing. I mean, you've evolved so
Speaker 1: much ever since you accidentally stormed the capital. Yes, who
Speaker 1: would have known that my accidental the story of the
Speaker 1: capital would become a moment of enlightenment. You love crowds,
Speaker 1: love a crowd, but a lot of people would never
Speaker 1: assume this about you. Well, thank you appreciate that. But
Speaker 1: let me continue, I said to Tucker Carlson, which again
Speaker 1: is a pseudonym. I said, Tucker. If a person wants
Speaker 1: to identify as a he, she, whatever you call it,
Speaker 1: that is none of your business. They are people and
Speaker 1: served to be treated with the same dignity as you
Speaker 1: and me. So that's how I put it. And with that,
Speaker 1: I'll be signing off today, folks. This is Ron Burgundy. No, Ron,
Speaker 1: I'm just getting my jacket. We've only been here for
Speaker 1: like four minutes. We just got here. Are you serious?
Speaker 1: I could have sworn I was. I was here for
Speaker 1: three hours. Look, you haven't even had a sip of
Speaker 1: your coffee yet. Oh in that case, please the show
Speaker 1: must go on. Anyway, we were discussing how you are
Speaker 1: becoming an ally. Yes, yes, Caroline, and I know I'm
Speaker 1: I'm out of touch in a lot of ways. I
Speaker 1: admitted I have a lot to learn, and I want to.
Speaker 1: I really want to. I want to be a better
Speaker 1: ally in the world. And and that's why on today's show,
Speaker 1: I'm going to ask you, as a young person, to
Speaker 1: help me with something very important. Okay, now, no, it's
Speaker 1: not bad. Okay, what is it? I want you to
Speaker 1: teach me how to get famous on TikTok? I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: how is you getting famous on TikTok going to help
Speaker 1: with any of those things? Like? Well, I think it's
Speaker 1: just a chance to reach out to a new young demographic.
Speaker 1: I think we've we've done some of that here on
Speaker 1: the podcast. Also on a personal level, I finally learned
Speaker 1: a lot by listening to young people. Sure, and the
Speaker 1: young people they're they're all on TikTok. Did you just
Speaker 1: say tiktork? Wait? Is it TikTok or TikTok? Whichever one
Speaker 1: is right? That that's the one I just said, it's
Speaker 1: it's TikTok. Al right, Well, when we come back from break,
Speaker 1: a two hour break, Carolina is going to show me
Speaker 1: the ins and outs of TikTok. We have fifteen minutes,
Speaker 1: and by the end of this episode, Ron Burgundy is
Speaker 1: going to go viral. I don't even have TikTok installed
Speaker 1: on my phone. You don't have it all ready. I
Speaker 1: don't use it. Oh. I thought you were a cool
Speaker 1: young person. You're what thirty one? Wait, you're turning thirty
Speaker 1: one in May. Yeah, my gosh, I can't believe you
Speaker 1: remembered my birthday. I saw it on your driver's license
Speaker 1: when I was going through your purse. Are you serious?
Speaker 1: And I thought, I gotta remember that. It's the nice
Speaker 1: thing to do. You need to stop going for my
Speaker 1: purse for candy and snacks. I keep telling you there's
Speaker 1: no food in my purse. No, I was just seeing
Speaker 1: if you had a diary. What are you serious? Yes, well,
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I'm I don't know why I'm
Speaker 1: telling you so much right now? All right, let's take
Speaker 1: a break and then you can make me viral on TikTok.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is going to be possible.
Speaker 1: I'll do my best. Back in the flash with the
Speaker 1: Rot Burgundy podcast podcast podcast podcasts so annoying. We're back
Speaker 1: on the Ron Burgundy Podcast with me as always as Carolina,
Speaker 1: and today on the show Carolina. This is gonna be fun.
Speaker 1: It's gonna teach me how to become famous on TikTok.
Speaker 1: I'm okay. Disclaimer, I rarely used to talk, and I
Speaker 1: don't think you actually need to do this to connect
Speaker 1: with a younger audience. There's so many other ways. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing. TikTok just seems fun, you know, it
Speaker 1: just seems like fun. And so what if Silicon Valley
Speaker 1: wants to collect all my personal information? My life is
Speaker 1: an open book, not unlike your purse. All right, do
Speaker 1: you have the app loaded up? Yes, it's all set,
Speaker 1: So what do you want to do I want to
Speaker 1: go viral? I'm sorry, was I not clear about that yet?
Speaker 1: You can't just make something go viral. It has to
Speaker 1: be interesting or news worthy, you're cute or funny. It
Speaker 1: has to happen organically. I think all I'm gonna need
Speaker 1: to do is get on there and do a fun
Speaker 1: dance and then blam, Oh I've got millions of followers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you're a journalist, You're I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: do you really want to reduce yourself to dancing on TikTok?
Speaker 1: My decision is vital, and this is about connecting more
Speaker 1: with young people and hearing what they have to say
Speaker 1: to make the world a better place. Right. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's part of it, because if that's something you're truly
Speaker 1: interested in doing, I can actually put you in touch
Speaker 1: with some great organizations, Mutual aid projects, nonprofit Carolina. I
Speaker 1: need you to hold the camera while I do the
Speaker 1: fun tiktork dance. I've been practicing in my den for
Speaker 1: a week, So that's what this is really about. You've
Speaker 1: been working on this, you know, and a lot of
Speaker 1: people know this. I'm an excellent dancer, Okay, but here's
Speaker 1: the thing I'm afraid that if we do make a
Speaker 1: TikTok of you dancing, then it will go viral. Perfect,
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. No, but I think it could
Speaker 1: go viral and um the wrong way. Listen, if I
Speaker 1: get the clap from dancing, it won't be the first time.
Speaker 1: What I'm trying to say is you could end up
Speaker 1: with people laughing at you, not with you. And I
Speaker 1: mean no, I don't understand what. Why would people be
Speaker 1: laughing at all? There's nothing funny about my dancing. The
Speaker 1: art of dances is not a laughing matter, because you
Speaker 1: know I'm cla sickly trained. There just might be something
Speaker 1: inherently funny to people about seeing Ron Burgundy dancing. I
Speaker 1: can do ballet, jazz, tap, modern hip hop, dancer size that.
Speaker 1: Do you remember that I went with you to your
Speaker 1: ZOOMA class at the Y. Yeah, they asked you to leave.
Speaker 1: I've worked very hard on my craft and I don't
Speaker 1: see how anyone could find that the least bit funny.
Speaker 1: People just know you from a different contexts, and I
Speaker 1: want to show them this side of me. Do people
Speaker 1: laugh while they're watching Dancing with the Stars. No, Never,
Speaker 1: They watch people dance and the cream rises to the top. Yeah,
Speaker 1: are you trying to get on Dancing with the Stars? Wait?
Speaker 1: What are they asking? No? Right, yes, I haven't gotten
Speaker 1: the call. But but it's not like I'm waiting by
Speaker 1: the phone. I barely even care at all. Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: just starting to add some stuff up. Add what up?
Speaker 1: I don't owe you any money. I put the wallet
Speaker 1: right back in your purse. Ron, did someone from Dancing
Speaker 1: with the Stars tell you if you got a following
Speaker 1: on TikTok, they might consider having you on the show.
Speaker 1: Is this what it's all about? If? And I'm saying,
Speaker 1: if a conversation took place along those lines, that would
Speaker 1: be confidential dancer to producer confidentiail. But I will say
Speaker 1: I did have a conversation, and let's say someone may
Speaker 1: have said it may increase my chances of getting on DWTS,
Speaker 1: that's Dancing with the Stars. Yeah, look, are you going
Speaker 1: to film my TikTok? Dnswer? What? Because I can find
Speaker 1: someone else to do it. I just just thought you
Speaker 1: would know how to make me look flattering. I trust you,
Speaker 1: Thank you, Ron, And in the interests of that trust,
Speaker 1: I would like to talk to you off the air
Speaker 1: about this. Well, like I said, my life is an
Speaker 1: open book. But if we have a commercial lined up,
Speaker 1: I suppose we could do that and then talk privately.
Speaker 1: If we don't have a commercial, we can just move
Speaker 1: away from the mics and whisper. Let's just talk the
Speaker 1: dancing with the stars of it all through privately. Okay, alright,
Speaker 1: fair enough, back in a moment with information on how
Speaker 1: you can see my awesome dance moves on TikTok. This
Speaker 1: is Ron Burgundy. Bazinga. What's bazinga? It's it's a cool
Speaker 1: word I saw on a TV show to I wrote
Speaker 1: it down as soon as I heard it. I don't
Speaker 1: think you're using it in the right context. Well, it's
Speaker 1: still a cool word, bazinga. We're back here on the
Speaker 1: Ron Burgundy Podcast. Carolina and I just had a heart
Speaker 1: to heart and she really made a compelling argument. Thank
Speaker 1: you so much for just really listening to me there. Yeah. So,
Speaker 1: and people are used to seeing Ron Burgundy behind a desk,
Speaker 1: seeing me tackle hard hitting news stories, become a trusted
Speaker 1: source of information, and in these uncertain times we're living in,
Speaker 1: personalities like myself are rare commodities. I'm so glad you've
Speaker 1: thought this through. That's why I've made the difficult decision
Speaker 1: two ignore Carolina's advice and film a really fun dance
Speaker 1: for TikTok Boo. Yah. That's right, I'm the slum Dog Millionaire. Baby.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry this you're saying the Year of the slum
Speaker 1: Dog Millionaires. That's some DJ name. Well, I just said it.

Speaker 1: but also for having to work this out last minute. Sorry, guys,
