What would you talk about on your on your podcast? Right?
(01:26):
Why we talk? Are we in radio? We professionals or not?
We are? We talked all over the intro. But you
know what, you know what I like here? We go here,
here's what I like about today for real, And I
think that we should take this into the podcast, into
everything else we do. Left. I know that you're like,
you know that's the intro. Let it play, let it
breathe then talk. But just like what Elvis was doing
(01:48):
today with the band that came up here, he just
wanted to come up playing and lay in the studio.
They didn't need to be hooked up or anything. Just
do it. He just Elvis is trying to say to us,
let's just come in and just have some fun and
do radio. It doesn't matter. We don't overthink it. So
what does it matter that the people overthink everything? But
what what does it matter the intro is playing or not?
(02:08):
You think? I think Elvis has some secret agenda. He's
trying to teach us to just let it happen. I
think that he's not telling you guys, but I think
that he's trying to show us let it just go,
let it just happen, have some fun. But it sounds
like chaos. It sounds like we don't know what we're doing,
and it sounds like just a college radio station. Okay.
Elvis has been very good at saying that this is
organized chaos and we don't know what we're doing one
(02:29):
day to the next. However, that being said, we've all
become very good at flying by the seat of our
pants and we know how to cover things. And I
know personally that if there's something that I know is
going to sound like ship, we're not gonna do it
because that is still our reputation. Okay, that I understand,
But just I mean, when we're playing an intro and
we're like talking three seconds, the audience that's listening right now,
(02:52):
they're not going, well, they're talking over the INT's not
like a curtain on a stage though, But the thing
is the producer and me said that didn't sound very good.
So that was my instinct and nat instinct. It was like,
when we should have done that part over and Elvis
would say, what is the big deal, guys, We're just
people are driving in their cars, they're at home. They
(03:14):
got a sign in the background like a Yankee game
or a met game. No one's really listening and going
right now about that, Like whenever you talk, I'm gonna
make noise. Just free flows that cha. But that no,
(03:38):
that's free ball. That goes back to what Nature said.
We don't know what. We've all been doing this show
a long time. We're all professionals. We know not to
jump on top of each other or agree that last
second sounded like DoD No it didn't. I just think
I listen, I understand what Ski saying. Where he's been
(03:58):
programmed to be. We'reri is the higher I'm trying to work? Yeah,
I don't know, because works the higher. I'm paying your
compliment here, which their higher? Don't I don't care, man,
I'm freaking bethany big word. Listen, guys, the problem is this.
(04:18):
I agree with what Scary is saying, as thank you Brodie.
As a producer, he has been programmed that everything has
to been clean, clear, concise done. That's a backing ate
up d I was backing Nate up, but you didn't
listen close to what Nate said. Nate said, we are
all here, different don't work. They're broken. My boy, it's
(04:47):
no place, which as usual, Nates said. Nate said, we
are all He's giving you guys all comment. You're not
listening as a sentence coming right, but nobody listens when
never anybody knocks. Would you reiterate your opinion? I said,
and I agreed with you that we are a very
free flowing show. We can play by the seat of
our pants, but we've all become very good at that.
And ultimately, though, if we know something isn't gonna work,
(05:10):
we don't do it because we are professionals and we
don't want to. And I think my opinion is that
walking all talking all over an intro to us, you know,
to our podcast, is not good. It's not gonna sound good.
It sounds like I can't hear what we're saying. But
does the audience really care about the intro to the pod?
That's one of those things that we could actually it's
something we could clean up, clean up. I do agree
(05:32):
with the whole concept, though, t you know, we we
can just have fun and we can just do something
spontaneous and not really worry how good or bad it sounds,
because honestly, I've worked with shows that it's very hard
for them to sound natural, Like right, okay, that's fair
to speaking of sounding natural, I can interject just for
a moment. Yesterday, there was a little bit of yelling
on the show. Hold how funny was the text over
(05:57):
now perception versus reality. A lot of people on the
show were yelling, but Nate kept pointing out, Oh, it's
like the Brooklyn boys Brody and Scarier arguing. Right. So
people then harped on the fact that Brodian scari arguing.
So one one girl said she were at David Brodie
had Scary Jones the fifty minute More show. I didn't
enjoy it today because it was just you guys yelling, right.
(06:17):
So then, so I just want to thank you Stephen Furry,
who said one guy, one guy, no, no, he said
to the person who complained. Pro tip, turned the volume down,
and it sounds like a whisper fight. So if you
don't like us yelling, the volume and we will no
longer be yelling. Now, here's the thing with that, when
you criticize someone that's given you criticize. I didn't criticize anybody,
(06:42):
but a woman just came out and said, listen, guys,
I didn't appreciate it. And then Stephen guys. But just
like it is like some some dude jumped in the
ring and was like, hey, listen, woman, turn it down.
That's not right. Where did you get woman versus it
was the first guy to jump on this means comment.
The woman gave a nice comment, and instead of being
(07:03):
you know what, she's got a point. No, her comment
wasn't nice. She says, I don't listen to the Brooklyn guy.
Typical guys, God forbid you to listen to what a
woman says and just take. But the very thing that
she doesn't like is the very thing that makes our
podcast success. Then I will read at Mellie f Baby
her real name is Erica. She writes, I love it
and I can and do listen to them all every day.
(07:24):
So there's a woman with a vagina who also likes us. Okay,
there's always one. Okay, all right, listen. I came up
with some comments. I mean, it's some some topics that
I love this. I thought this might go well. I'm
trying to expur mind yes, expand your minds and steer
(07:45):
us away from the toilet humor. I happen to notice, Okay,
we got it. We we talked about toilet where I'm
only trying to get to the point because I think
we only bought like seven minutes pretty much. That's four
minutes of his to his topic. Can we talk about
the game you and I created for Great two? My god?
Actually it was a really great game and was a
part of it's the game. How long does it take
(08:06):
Greg Tea to get to the point? Get to the
point we get We get a caller on the phone, right, like,
all right, Great Tea doesn't know, but he's got a
story he's gonna tell us, and he's got a topic
he's gonna pitch. So how long do you think until
he actually gets to the point and we get a timer? Right?
And then Gregg Tea comes in and tells us one
of his topics and we be over under on. Let
(08:26):
me I want to play Greg team for a second.
I'm Greg te asked me my topic? Hey you have
a topic? Oh yeah, okay, so I saw I was
in the back right, Okay, not for not, guys, So
don't laugh, don't make fun, but it's serious. Okay. I
know you're gonna be like, oh it's Greg Tabe. Okay, no, no,
here's my topic. Okay, so it's all gonna trash. Right
we were, we were sitting at the kitchen table. Okay,
(08:46):
you know you're rushing me. You're rushing, not gonna start
over again. So do you know what it's like when
you're sitting there? Just okay, okay, for real, for real,
no joke, but don't joke for real, Like you need
to give a little background story. Let me pay the picture.
Let me pay the picture. I was right, red shirt,
I was in red shirt. Nothing nothing, Okay. The example
I give you is when you're reading a newspaper, because
(09:06):
how you sit back there and read the newspaper. What
do they have at the top of the article? The headline?
That's it. That's your topic. Just say the topic and
then you can tell us the story. Ask so you
want me to tease you that, Do not tease tease,
just tell us what it is just going to Don't
you hate when you crap your pants? All right? To
tell you that, I will, I will do that. But
(09:27):
here comes. I just want to say before into this
because I can't just tell you the topic because then
you want understand, want to give you reason. He's like,
this woman's going to turn us off again. The volume
I just going to be. I think I said two sentences.
(09:47):
This whole thing you all you're doing is right yelling
all you're doing. What did Daniel contribute today? Well, she
said if you a lot three times. The problem that
I'm having is I don't pitch a good topic very well.
So I need to give you the background store. Here's
your opportunity to Okay, you're ready, but I'm angered over
(10:09):
slick quick pictures that I don't know are being taken. Wow,
but see that doesn't tell you what it's You're kind
of like not really okay, so what made you think
about that? Okay, so recently I have been, you know,
maybe taking a nap at my desk right recently, that's
(10:30):
but I do it like during commercial breaks or towards
the end of the show or towards your career. Well,
it's so Jake, and Andrew and now um and now Josh,
where you going? Brodie? I gotta I gotta take the topics.
Not back in ten minutes, I'm sure you'll just keep
They finally found a cure to his eternal call, Brodie,
you need me, I'm common. Hold on, come on, guys here,
(10:54):
this is messed up. So they're taking pictures. I was
leaving because I thought you needed me to continue. They
have been recently taking pictures of me randomly, but they
won't tell me what they're for. And I catch them,
but it's too late. I catch them with like one
eye open as they just took it, and then they
walk away there trying to prove that you're not working
(11:14):
so they can get you fired. But I am working.
We have how do you how do you justify a
nap while you're working? We all have roles on this
morning show. Some roles are to be on the shower right,
like Danielle and Elvis. Their roles are to always be
on the mic at all times. Brodie's role is to
(11:34):
be the joke writer and to be a note feeder
all the time. Scaries Scaries role is to be behind Elvis,
making sure that all the components are ready to go
at all times. Nate's role is to make sure that
we stay on target and that we hit the things
with the hit at all times. Exactly. Greg T is
the guy that enters that that interjects himself and then
exerjects himself and then exerts himself. Exerget what do you
(12:01):
mean jets? I interject and I it would be it
would be he would be outer jet. What is it?
Interject interjet? You're like a squirt of surat and the
refrigerator for next time. Like when you watch side Kramer
came through the door every now and then bust. So
(12:22):
what was Kramer doing when he wasn't you know what Jerry?
He was like in his hot tub chicken. This is
you thinking that you're a TV character, But that is
what it is. Greg T is Kramer. Like look at
Woody Harrilson when he was on Cheers back in the day, right,
or like what Joey from Friends? Can you they were
doing the show from the past ten years. I don't
really watch all these comment This is this is us
when you see the father and he's in the past. Serious.
(12:45):
By the way, this is still the topic of people
taking pictures of right. So what I'm saying is that
I have downtime, so I can that's not in your contract.
You show me your contract that you have to take
naps at your desk. It doesn't specifically say great t
has downtown time, but there is downtime that I have
and I'm allowed to take advantage of that downtime. But
you have very little up time, well my up time.
(13:07):
But that's why I have to be on point. When
you're drafting your fantasy football team. Is that up time
or down? Well, that's got to be on all the time,
ready to go. You got to be right when when
you're being I do. When you're day trading stocks in
the back, is that up time or down that start
the bell rings? But listen, I'm not checking the night.
Come on, are you upset about people that take pictures
(13:29):
of you when you're not expecting when we're sleeping out
an airplane and they take it every time? Down right,
But I expect it to happen now. So now I'm
just like that, Danielle. I don't like that you're over
you know it, they're done that great tea is they're
taking naps on their off time. There's top again, helicopters,
(13:52):
any glasses, because you're really holding that phone far away
from your face and you're your optical lenses not ad
all right for me. It's not doing again. What's that next?
Topget for helicopter? I can see for far away, yeah,
but not from clothes like I can't either. I can
(14:21):
happens when you go so it hurts? Why eyes only
thirty get to the topic helicopter, helicopters, helicopters, Am I right?
Don't you think that the radio station should invest us
in a helicopter? Inst invest into a helicopter to get
(14:43):
us to different markets faster? How many markets go wrong?
Could you get to by helicopter? Well, you never know,
but then we can get to like Ohio pretty quick
on a helicopter. Helicopter it doesn't last. You know how
helicopters work. Will you put castlene and the propellers go up?
How far do you think they go? I don't even
know how far can helicopter go? Does anybody know? Thousand miles?
(15:04):
You think thousand miles? I don't know how far is
Ohio from here? Is a thousand miles? It's it's it's
if you have something in your hand that you could
google right now, you can't really, you can't really take
a helicopter. You have a helicopters like maybe really can name.
Can you name one state that is that touches Ohio,
that touches Ohio, Pennsylvania? Correct one, he said one? Okay
(15:30):
to double or nothing west of Ohio, Ohio, Pennsylvania. Say Pennsylvania.
There's another one south of it, New Hampshire. I was
gonna say, but I was up in that area. I
(15:53):
knew that was up in the area. You think Hawaii
is up? I mean, last ten people, nine people cannot
tell you those states. I'm sure they're not going to
tell you. One of them is Illinois because these aren't. Look,
we're still talking and the exit, the outrust comming is
called the wet exit. Still talks. Virginia is one of them. Yeah,
(16:16):
y
