Speaker 1 (00:01):
Yeah, they talk better than they excited. These are the
radio blogs on the Fresh Show, like we're writing in
our diaries, except we say them aloud. We call them blog.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Jason Brown, Yes you ready, I'm ready go, Thank you,
dear blog. So I'm a little nervous Monday. I'm having
my first surgery ever, like being put out under anesthesia
like everything. I have never done this before, but I've
talked about it a little bit. But basically I tore

(00:32):
my miniscus just walking here at the radio station.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Yeah, we're just.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Walking to my desk and felt a pop. And it's
been about six months of going through this. I was
scheduled to have it back in September, but insurance is
always just so fun. So basically, haven't you have it?

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Haven't you had it scheduled like three times?

Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (00:55):
And then they're like, oh, by the way, insurance isn't
going to pay for that. Yes, you called me like
choot it.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
They call me like days before and they're like, okay,
so yeah, your doctor is in network, but the building
that he's doing the surgery is not, even though it's
the same building as his office, just two floors up.
So we're not gonna pay for that. I'm like, what
are you talking about.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
So finally done at one of those quick centers literally
at the same.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Time, Yeah, yeah, one of those little like you know,
I don't know what those things are called, like little
rooms and make shift rooms. I'm like, you know it, really,
I'll will go anywhere at this point just to have
it done, Like I just want this to be over with,
Like I'm sick of like walking around like I'm like
eighty five years old, Like I'm just sick of it.
But finally I found a doctor's office that was in network.

(01:43):
The lovely, lovely woman that works there and their medical
building looked at my list of approved locations, was able
to like sink stuff up. So it's happening on Monday.
And the thing that I'm most nervous about is like
the recoup time because like how it's torn or whatever.
He won't know until he gets in there, like how

(02:05):
hard it's going to be to repair it. So he
basically said, like you could be up walking in forty
eight hours, or you could be in like one of
those straight leg brace things for six weeks.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Insurance paid for. It's never done this before, so he's
not sure, like He's like, well, once I figure it out, right.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yeah, we're yessing right, that's crazy. We're in this together.

Speaker 1 (02:27):

able to work. Jingle Ble Sacramento. I'm sorry. I'm just
I'm drawing the line. You can know you can't work
any more. Jingle Bob.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
I'm sorry unless they give me a scooter or something.
But yeah, so I'm a little nervous. I've never been
put out before, so like, I'm not so nervous. I
don't know, Like I'm not really because it's a good sleep.
I'm nervous about waking up because I am chronically nauseous
all the time. Like I'm nauseous all the time. So
I have a feeling like that's going to be really

(02:56):
rough for me. But Mike is closing the gay Rash
the day. He is going to drive me to the
hospital to get it time for My parents are taking
off for whatever reason. I was like, we all don't
need to be there staring at me. But like they're
taying off. We're doing the whole big to do. We

from your your family.

body from head to because apparently he believes that he
needs to do that. They just ship around the knee,
but for some reason he wants he wants me to
wax him from head to che And I look, I heard,

draw the line there.
