But I have the most fun when 209 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 2: I'm doing radio, and WSFM is the station I listened 210 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: to in the car.

Don't we sound dreadful? 219 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: I have been friends since the Triple M days. Then 220 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 2: you say, actually, I was hoping that heavy chested socialite 221 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 2: fundraiser Maria Venuti would co host the show I did. 222 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 2: Amanda is high maintenance and keeps asking me who wants 223 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 2: to get up at this time in the morning. Jones 224 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 2: said he enjoyed Keller's rye sense of humor, and this 225 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 2: is a quote, and the fact she's forty two but 226 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 2: acts like she's eighteen. And she has a taut stomach 227 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 2: because when we would I said tell them I've got 228 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 2: a taut stomach, and they put it in. 229 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: You were doing pipe in and that should be a 230 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: lesson to women that do the piper in when the 231 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: man is on the phone. 232 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 2: You'll enjoy this.
