and this one is going to be quite the trip.
I've been teasing this for like a week now, because well,
she's a big star. You know her, I know her.
(00:22):
Her name is Ashley Feldman, and she is the host
of the gem In morning show right down the hall
here and also one of my closest friends in the
whole world. And you know what makes her so close
to me is she loves to tell me about myself always, always,
so welcome to the after Show, Thanks for having me.
I have a lot of questions. I don't know where
to start. We don't have a ton of time. I
(00:44):
just want to say that, well, I will say thank
you for being my friend, no, thank.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You for me my friend. And let me tell everybody
a fun fact. I don't think people might believe this,
but we literally speak on the phone every day.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
You're the only person that I talk on the phone too.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
And I don't know how you feel, but how things
go in your house, But like, my husband just knows
if I'm on the phone and I'm talking about work,
it's yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
With you, we don't even address it anymore. He's like, gosh,
she's on with.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
The same thing in my house. Yeah, yeah, Well we're
talking about work things always, yeah, or I'm asking for advice,
you know. So you and I though, real quick, go
way back to twenty thirteen.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Did you know that twenty thirteen? Is that what it is?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
That's when you started. So I was working on JAMM
in ninety four to five. They needed a new co host,
and I'll never forget. It was a week of auditions.
They had a different girl every day, and so we
did a couple of the girls and then Santy said
one morning I went in, he said the girl today
is she's from the Real World And I didn't watch
your season and he said her name is Ashley. Feldman
(01:42):
said cool, and then he went to go get you.
And he walked down and I was sitting in the
office in the old building, and I'll never forget Santy
walked in and he goes, justin, this is Ashually and
you walked into the doorway, and you know how like
memory is funny like that yeah, like seven feet tall
and you were all done up, and I remember I
said hi and you were like hey, and it gave
(02:03):
me a hug, and I was just like, who is
this person?
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
What is this?
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I will never for I remember that as well, because
I was supposed to do two full days on Jaman
of My audition was supposed to be two days, but
unfortunately there was a snowstorm out of my control. But
the whole time, Santier Ramiro one air, being like, she
thinks she's better than us because she's on the road.
Now we have to Now we're stuck with her for
a whole show. And this is before I'm even I'm
listening to this, before I'm even doing my audition. And
(02:28):
then I come in and I got to act like
I didn't hear any of that, but then of course
that came out within ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Of course, I was like, remember what you guys were
saying about yesterday, because because I.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Do, Yeah, but you got you meshed. Well, I remember,
because you know, they were kind of auditioning and then
talking about who it should be. But I remember them
saying like she's going to be the one.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Well, and the fun fact is our boss, Dylan Sprague
didn't want it to be a man.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Did you just say that?
Speaker 3 (02:49):
It's true?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
It is true. I didn't know you could say that publicly.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Yeah, he did. He didn't want me. He was pushing
for a different woman out of Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
It wasn't because I know, but it was. We should explain.
It wasn't because he didn't like you.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
No, you didn't think I was the He thought she
was the better fit. And she was older, and I
think she's way more experienced than I was. I hadn't
done radio. Well, I had done a small sports station.
I hadn't done radio like this. Yeah, and yeah, he
pushed for this other woman from Philly and Santina Romiro
pushed for me, And.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Here we are, all these years later, through many changes.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
So many change, too many changes. Yeah, so like recent changes, A.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Lot of changes, A lot. I mean, yeah, I mean
we'll talk about that, the changes recently. But okay, So
twenty thirteen I met you. You're from New Jersey. You're
a D one basketball player. You are excellent a basketball
We know what I know it to Northeastern. You love
to tell people that you are.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I mean, I have a few records out of I
don't bring it up.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It's fine. Don't they have your poster at Northeastern? Yeah, yeah,
there you go. So you grew up in Jersey, went
to Northeastern and played D one ball, went on the
Real World in what year?
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I was on the Real World in two thousand and
nine in New Orleans and we went back to New
Orleans because there's an original New Orleans series, and we
went back to New Orleans like pretty much right when
I graduated college.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah. Actually, it's funny. I remember when I found out
you were on the show after I met you, and
I looked up New Orleans and you weren't in the cast.
I was so confused.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, And it's crazy because I had just graduated college.
I was what twenty two years old, about to be
twenty three, and I was one of the older people
in the house, like most of the people in there
had just turned they were fresh twenty one.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yeah. So if you could sum up that experience in
like the thirty seconds, how would you?
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I mean, I would literally say it was pivotal to
my career. I launched and got my first radio gig
out of the real world, and I think going into it,
that's what I always knew I wanted to do.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
I'm like, I need to be seen.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I need somebody in the industry to see me and
be like, wow, maybe she's meant for for more than
just this. And I was able to kind of like
pivot and get my first radio job in Saint Louis
from that sports station.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Like I said, but my boss at the time.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
He was a real world fanatic, and after the season
was over, he sent me a message and was like, listen,
we have an opening here in Saint Louis. I don't
know if you'd be willing to move, but I think
you'd be great. And then there it.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Was so you wanted to do sports radio or radio.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
I wanted to do sports. I actually wanted to do TV.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I think was my first like love to do like
sports TV stuff. But then when I was playing basketball
at Northeastern, I did the local radio station there and
I was doing color commentary. So you know, for sportshead
they'll understand, but if you don't really watch sports, there's
going to be the guy that actually passes the ball
to Justin.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Justin's you know, five for two.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I'm I was the color so I would be like yeah,
and you know, Justin actually has quite the story and
I would kind of fill in, you know, and that
was like my first taste of radio. So then I
think after Real World course TV was number one. But
when I got that off or, I was like, this
is great, let's go. I went to Saint Louis and
the rest is history.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
And then you applied here. Now you knew Jaman and
kiss one.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Await I didn't apply here if that was actually another
funny story.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Oh you didn't.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
No. I wrote Dylan just like a threatening email, essentially
being like you need me.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
And he was like, who are you?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
He tells this story all the time because they had
no openings on Jaman at the time, and I wanted
to be back in Boston so much because obviously I
went to school here and my friends were here, and
I was like, you you may not have any openings,
but you need me. I have an X factor. I'm
telling you, like I'm made for this radio station, like
you should, you should meet me.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
So he was like, okay, I guess.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Like here's when I have an opening, and I came
and I sat down with him. The full circle moment
was when Pebble's left and there was an opening and
he sent me and he will be like, hey, we're
going to audition some women.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
You can finally come in. You bulled off.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Oh okay, see if you work out see wow yeah
yeah okay.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
But you knew of jammen from going to school in Northeastern.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Used to listen to jam and all the time, went
to monster jams, all of.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
The things like we would pregame at Northeastern parties games
that we would put Jaman on.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Yeah yeah, and a huge Drake fan that yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
I named my dog after Drake and like old school Drake,
like I you know, I liked Drake when Drake wasn't
really as popular obviously as he is now.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So that's so. Then,
you know, all through all the changes on Jammin, eventually
you get your own show.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Yes, you know, it was. There was a build up
to it. It didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
I had done pretty much every single day part to
get there. And then uh, Dylan again had asked me
to go. He wanted, say, I want to take you
out to dinner, like let's have a conversation and you'll
understand this.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I was like, oh, I don't want to go to
a dinner to just take me to Chick fil A.
I love Chick fil A.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yeah, So we went to the Burlington Mall and we
sat it at Chick fil A and he's like it's like,
he's like, I wanted to do this over a steak
and like maybe some champagne and tell you that it's time.
You've you've you're ready for your own morning show. Like,
but here we are eating nuggets.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
And Chick fil A sauce and yeah. So he said,
you know you finally you're ready. Who do you want?
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I said, I won't do it if it's not with
santi And Santio was at a country station at the time,
so he came over and then speaking of the recent changes,
I also.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Was like, I want DJ Horn on the show. And
that's how we started.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
You built your own show.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
I got to build my own show, yeah, which I
think is a testament to him because he trusted me
enough to know what I needed at the time to
like get this going. I mean, he will leaves in
me a lot, but you know, I think he just
was like, what's going to make you feel the most
comfortable doing.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
This and to give some reference to the listeners right now,
Santi worked for years on JAM and was let go
laid off. That was kind of a hot situation, Okay.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Well, yeah, because when he was like, oh him and
We'remeira did this podcast at things, and so he was
uncomfortable around here for sure.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
And then look at the power that you have. You
said I want him, and they brought him back, which
is amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well, and you know their relationship has certainly had its
up ups and downs, but that they're in a really
good place now and they've.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Come a long way.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I mean, Santi's in his soul, he's not He's a
really great person and I think they just needed to
get past that.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
And they did, absolutely did. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I mean he.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Wouldn't be here if they didn't. There was no he's
here because of that.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah. So you brought up the changes, obviously, which is
partly of the reason I wanted to have you on
other than you're my friend and I love talking to
you and you're very easy to talk to.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Well, thank you, And to be honest, I'm glad you
brought it up because you are one of my best
friends and I'm very defensive of that and I have
been seeing you know, some of the comments and things
you've been getting and it hurts my heart.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
And if it was worth it for me.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
To comment back to some of these people, I would,
but it pains me to see kind of like some
of the heat that you've been taking, as if you
no offense, respectfully, have any sort of power to stop
a situation like this. That day was so hard for
every single one of us. It was such a shock
for every single one of us. You know, I think
a good example and I always give this to people,
(09:29):
is we were kind of told, hey, stay.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
In studios, go back.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
I texted my husband, I said, I'm losing my job
and we're gonna have to move from the house in Marshfield,
Like we're not going about to afford it. I am
losing my job today. That is how much I didn't know.
We didn't know. So when I see people say things
like that, you know they're not listening to Kis win
Wait anymore because of what you did to Winnie or whatever.
The situation like that breaks my heart because that's so
(09:53):
far from the truth. And I'm sorry they have to
deal with that. But that's also like the nature of
our business, which sucks.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Yeah, where public figures as they say that morning that
it all went down people. I really I've told the
story on this podcast before I realized I didn't know
what's happening. I walked out, I saw something was happening
with Winnie. I saw her crying. I immediately texted you
and I wrote, oh my god, oh my god, something's
happening with Winnie, and you wrote back DJ farign too,
and I was like, holy shit. Yeah, so it all
(10:20):
went on at once.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
I have said this a million times.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I get emotional every time anybody losing their job is
just it's so horrifying. And the thing about the two
of them, they're going to be fine because they have
they have in it factor, they have something special that
doesn't make it any better. And you know when people
people will call in my show to tell me about
something else in the middle be like I missborn and
I'm like.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
The truth of the matter is I do too. Like
I'm not going to hide that fact. I do too.
And it sucks because this is radio.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
This is our business, and it's there's great things about
our business and there's really just shit things. I was
shocked that you said shit because I forgot you can
I say shit on here?
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Something well not regulated by the FCS. So both of
us and both of our shows are adjusting to this
kind of new thing. Yeah, that's what it is. We're
trying to find our way. You know, you took a
major piece out of each show, and so here we
are trying to like move forward, fake time. But they
hate has died down. I think people are Initially we're
very angry, and now they're kind of like, okay, like
we get it.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Yeah, And I think in your situation too, if they
actually spoke to Winnie directly, she would say exactly what
we're saying.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I talk to her me too, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
You know I And the same thing goes for foreign
I mean they love all of us.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
It had nothing to do with us.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Yeah, yeah, it sucks. It sucks.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
I think in general, people get mad, they want to
blame somebody, they want to point fingers on one of
them when things happen. Like I kind of resonated in
my brain with like I love certain shows so much.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I fall in love with characters, right, and when.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
You watch a show like let's use Game of Thrones
for example, Kalisi dies, You're like, fuck this show.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I don't want to watch this show. Without Kalisi, How
am I gonna? And then you continue to watch.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
The show because you love the show. But there's a
part of the show. Oh that's missing, and that's kind
of where we're.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
At transition here. You just brought something here, Yeah, no
about the TV shows. Well, I want to say that
you have two daughters I do, all right, who are
beautiful And you actually just posted a Halloween.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Video Halloween photos, jop.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
It's on your Instagram at Ashley. It's the most extra
thing you'll ever If you know Ashley, if you follow
her on Instagram, you know that she is the most
extra person.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Ever beyond I will say that about myself, by the way,
it's at Ashley Feldsman as h L E E F
E L D m an.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Please go look at my Halloween photo shot. I'm not
a big like.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I don't post on my feed a ton, but when
I do, you better believe there's been some thought put
into that.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And my Halloween shoot is like my super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah. One time I had an endorsement when I first
started getting them, and the client wanted social media as
part of it, and they wanted something like one feed
post a week, and I was such a newbie to it.
I remember I said that to you, and you go,
are you fucking out of your mind? Do you know
how much they have to pay to get on my feed?
Speaker 3 (12:59):
I was like, I was like, are you first time
you're taking me?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Sound bougie, But I was like, the fee pos what
such a big deal.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
It is a big deal. It's gonna live, It's.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Gonna live on so go check that out. It's a
Halloween I don't even know video photo shoot. It's incredible.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
It's a combination. Listen.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
It was extremely hard for me to get pregnant for
the second time, and when I did, I remember, this
is crazy.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
This is crazy, ABC. All bisuits are crazy. I'm nuts.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I was pregnant and I thought to myself, we didn't
know what we were having. But if it's a girl,
oh my god, we can beat the Sanderson Sisters for Halloween.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
One year. Here we are. It has come to fruition
the iconic Sisters.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I don't even know, like what went into this and
how much this possibly costs. All I know is I'm
sure your husband has no idea.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
If he's not involved in it, he doesn't ask me anything.
But when he's involved in the questions come, So I.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Don't include him. Yeah, I don't need him.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
So you have your two daughters? How old? How old
are they?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Daisy is a little over one and Leila is going
to be four in December, which is crazy.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, that is crazy. So so Leila and Gemma are
right around the same age. Yes, And what's so funny
about this is I had children first, okay, And so
years ago we were working together. I was the show guy.
I watched all the shows. I had the recommendations. If
he needed the show, you came to justin.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Oh first okay, and he was like at my disposal guys,
cause I didn't have kids.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
So I would call him six seven times a day,
and but did you watch? Did you watch? Did you watch?
And he'd be like, what do you not understanding?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Like, I'm knee deep in diapers right now, I'm trying
to figure out how to parent. I can't watch the
shows actually, like I can't do this anymore like I
was doing.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
You didn't get it.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
I didn't get it. And fast forward.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
If I watched ten minutes, ten minutes of one episode.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
I'm like, honey, I'm winning for the day. Ten minutes.
And if you have young kids like that.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
You understand, it's the fucking wild West in my house,
wild West.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
So I get it now. And it obviously took me
having kids dinners.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Well, we connect a lot about the kids stuff too,
we do, and we talk on the phone every day
and it's so funny because either your kids or my
kids are both will be in the background and we
don't even. I don't even.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
We don't.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
And by the way, when one of them starts crying,
we just go, okay, we just hang up. We don't
need to say good bye anymore, because it's like an
unwritten thing.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Nobody.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
You don't want to hear your own own kids crying
and whiny. I certainly don't want to hear someone else
is like, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Goodbye, right, yeah exactly. Yeah, So all right, so all
is good in your world.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I mean, today's a big day for me with the
Halloween photo shoot. Yeah, I mean, all is good is relative.
Obviously we just chatted about it. Things have changed, but
we just we did a big live show on Friday
in Salem, and I cry. I get emotional, but I
started crying a little bit on air because it was
six am in Salem at Rockefellers, and there was already
(15:37):
like thirteen people at this bar, and I couldn't believe it,
Like they set their alarms in the three to come
see us do the show, and then by eight thirty
I blinked in the place was just swamp.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
There was so many people.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
And you know, I say this all the time on
the show, And there are so many good radio stations
in Boston, yours included, So when people actively wake up
and they choose to listen to ours or they listen
to the podcast, it really is the greatest compliment of
all time because you have so many options at your disposal, podcasts,
all the things. So I'm very appreciative when people choose
(16:08):
to listen to our show.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
As am I and I feel like with Kissing jam
And they've always been kind of, you know, competitors in
a sense.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
We work for and we're the ghetto.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Okay, Like kiss hits all the money, kiss one a
week gets all of the good prizes, kiss one Awake
gets everything, Jamming gets nothing.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
And so that's the real, that's the.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Real, all right. But I have noticed and I've found
that since your show has launched, right how many years now,
like seven yeah. I feel like before people either listen
to kiss or Jamming, they chose they stuck with them,
but now they go back and forth. Yeah, so when
we go to commercial, they go to Ashley. When you
go to commercial, they come to us.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I know we do have a lot of people that
go back and forth, and they love when we fight
or we have like something going on. But I even
got DM's like, oh my gosh, Justin said you're coming
on the after show and you're going to come on
his podcast, and so that just proves that people do
go back and forth. I don't want to cause beef.
I think our show is better, respectfully, but I have to, right,
you should I should feel that I should. Yeah, that's
not well.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
You also have an advantage, you know what that advantage is,
But the audience is different. You can talk about things
that are more sexual. You know. I can't talk about that.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
I know you can, but you can't like you would,
but you can't.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Well, I also think like there's ways you don't have
to say like penis at six am like I do,
but you guys could.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Billy can't be trusted. Yeah, he'll just say things I want.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I want to know Lisa's thoughts on some things, you know.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
But yeah, I mean it's they can't be trusted to
not to kind of ride the line if you will.
So that's just the way it is. But I know,
I know, yeah, So I love you. You know that.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Thank you for having me. I will come on more.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Often if the people want it at a really sure
we can make it. We can make it a thing.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Can I share one final story?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Please? I'm wondering.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
It's a good story. It's a good story. This really
just goes to show the kind of friend that you are.
I told you this recently. I reminded you. But years ago,
I was going through a tough time with my wife
Jen and I was under the belief I really believed
that she didn't love me anymore and that she didn't
find me attractive, and then she did not want to
sleep with me, and that she was just with me
because we had kids. That's it, I convinced myself. And
(18:15):
it got to a point where we weren't talking and
I was like it's over, Like it's over. So one
day I called Ashley. I was walking in a park
by myself and I called her and I'm like, I'm
just gonna tell her like I'm gonna leave my wife.
And I laid it all out to her, like an
hour long talk, and she was like, are you fucking
(18:36):
out of your mind? She goes, are you done? I
go yeah, she goes, okay, and then she proceeded to
just lay into me for like twenty minutes, and I'll
tell you, by the end of it, I was like,
oh my god, yeah, like what am I thinking?
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
You know, And you gave me advice, which was between
us of things that I need to do and to
work on. And I did those things and I'll never
forget like when it would turned around and we entered
this new chapter in our marriage and we were all good.
I was thinking about you and I'm like, imagine if
I never.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Called culture, I'm so thankful that you did.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
And you know what, this is a real testament to
our friendship because we will both you know, we will
say what we want to say, and sometimes it's hertful.
But you look at someone like Britney Spears and you're like,
it's sad. She has no real friends, she has no
one to sit her down and be like, get out
of your foolia, get better, extensions, stop be a good mond.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Just have anybody. She just has.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
People say you always need someone that's going to tell
you by yourself, you do and by the.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Way, and let's and also marriage is a lot of work.
Just in general, we can get a lot of Marriage
is a full time job as well.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
It's definitely a lot. Yeah, definitely a lot. Yeah. Uh oh.
We didn't even mention Mike, your husband.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
Shout out to We don't say his name, shout out
to the fireman.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Fireman.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
He doesn't like to be known. He hates. He has actively.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Said to me many a time, sometimes I wish you
just worked at like Duncan. Yeah, you know, he hates
the attention of it all. But he's the best dude.
He definitely compliments me. He's the office, yeah of me.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
One of the first things that was said to me
by an experienced person in radio when I was an
intern was that they said, if you continue to work
in radio, you're gonna learn that the people that matter
the most in your life, right, that mean the most,
do not give one fucknut that you work on the radio.
You know what I mean? And it's so true. My
wife doesn't care. My wife listens to your fucking show.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Okay, she's a big fan of the passion you have
morning shows.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
It's great, okay, all right, see now now we've got
to wrap things up. But thank you very much, and

and this one is going to be quite the trip.
I've been teasing this for like a week now, because well,
she's a big star. You know her, I know her.
(00:22):
Her name is Ashley Feldman, and she is the host
of the gem In morning show right down the hall
here and also one of my closest friends in the
whole world. And you know what makes her so close
to me is she loves to tell me about myself always, always,
so welcome to the after Show, Thanks for having me.
I have a lot of questions. I don't know where
to start. We don't have a ton of time. I
(00:44):
just want to say that, well, I will say thank
you for being my friend, no, thank.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
You for me my friend. And let me tell everybody
a fun fact. I don't think people might believe this,
but we literally speak on the phone every day.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
You're the only person that I talk on the phone too.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
And I don't know how you feel, but how things
go in your house, But like, my husband just knows
if I'm on the phone and I'm talking about work,
it's yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
With you, we don't even address it anymore. He's like, gosh,
she's on with.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
The same thing in my house. Yeah, yeah, Well we're
talking about work things always, yeah, or I'm asking for advice,
you know. So you and I though, real quick, go
way back to twenty thirteen.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Did you know that twenty thirteen? Is that what it is?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
That's when you started. So I was working on JAMM
in ninety four to five. They needed a new co host,
and I'll never forget. It was a week of auditions.
They had a different girl every day, and so we
did a couple of the girls and then Santy said
one morning I went in, he said the girl today
is she's from the Real World And I didn't watch
your season and he said her name is Ashley. Feldman
(01:42):
said cool, and then he went to go get you.
And he walked down and I was sitting in the
office in the old building, and I'll never forget Santy
walked in and he goes, justin, this is Ashually and
you walked into the doorway, and you know how like
memory is funny like that yeah, like seven feet tall
and you were all done up, and I remember I
said hi and you were like hey, and it gave
(02:03):
me a hug, and I was just like, who is
this person?
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
What is this?
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I will never for I remember that as well, because
I was supposed to do two full days on Jaman
of My audition was supposed to be two days, but
unfortunately there was a snowstorm out of my control. But
the whole time, Santier Ramiro one air, being like, she
thinks she's better than us because she's on the road.
Now we have to Now we're stuck with her for
a whole show. And this is before I'm even I'm
listening to this, before I'm even doing my audition. And
(02:28):
then I come in and I got to act like
I didn't hear any of that, but then of course
that came out within ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Of course, I was like, remember what you guys were
saying about yesterday, because because I.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Do, Yeah, but you got you meshed. Well, I remember,
because you know, they were kind of auditioning and then
talking about who it should be. But I remember them
saying like she's going to be the one.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Well, and the fun fact is our boss, Dylan Sprague
didn't want it to be a man.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Did you just say that?
Speaker 3 (02:49):
It's true?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
It is true. I didn't know you could say that publicly.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Yeah, he did. He didn't want me. He was pushing
for a different woman out of Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
It wasn't because I know, but it was. We should explain.
It wasn't because he didn't like you.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
No, you didn't think I was the He thought she
was the better fit. And she was older, and I
think she's way more experienced than I was. I hadn't
done radio. Well, I had done a small sports station.
I hadn't done radio like this. Yeah, and yeah, he
pushed for this other woman from Philly and Santina Romiro
pushed for me, And.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Here we are, all these years later, through many changes.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
So many change, too many changes. Yeah, so like recent changes, A.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Lot of changes, A lot. I mean, yeah, I mean
we'll talk about that, the changes recently. But okay, So
twenty thirteen I met you. You're from New Jersey. You're
a D one basketball player. You are excellent a basketball
We know what I know it to Northeastern. You love
to tell people that you are.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I mean, I have a few records out of I
don't bring it up.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
It's fine. Don't they have your poster at Northeastern? Yeah, yeah,
there you go. So you grew up in Jersey, went
to Northeastern and played D one ball, went on the
Real World in what year?
Speaker 2 (03:50):
I was on the Real World in two thousand and
nine in New Orleans and we went back to New
Orleans because there's an original New Orleans series, and we
went back to New Orleans like pretty much right when
I graduated college.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah. Actually, it's funny. I remember when I found out
you were on the show after I met you, and
I looked up New Orleans and you weren't in the cast.
I was so confused.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, And it's crazy because I had just graduated college.
I was what twenty two years old, about to be
twenty three, and I was one of the older people
in the house, like most of the people in there
had just turned they were fresh twenty one.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Yeah. So if you could sum up that experience in
like the thirty seconds, how would you?
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I mean, I would literally say it was pivotal to
my career. I launched and got my first radio gig
out of the real world, and I think going into it,
that's what I always knew I wanted to do.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
I'm like, I need to be seen.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I need somebody in the industry to see me and
be like, wow, maybe she's meant for for more than
just this. And I was able to kind of like
pivot and get my first radio job in Saint Louis
from that sports station.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Like I said, but my boss at the time.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
He was a real world fanatic, and after the season
was over, he sent me a message and was like, listen,
we have an opening here in Saint Louis. I don't
know if you'd be willing to move, but I think
you'd be great. And then there it.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Was so you wanted to do sports radio or radio.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
I wanted to do sports. I actually wanted to do TV.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I think was my first like love to do like
sports TV stuff. But then when I was playing basketball
at Northeastern, I did the local radio station there and
I was doing color commentary. So you know, for sportshead
they'll understand, but if you don't really watch sports, there's
going to be the guy that actually passes the ball
to Justin.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Justin's you know, five for two.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I'm I was the color so I would be like yeah,
and you know, Justin actually has quite the story and
I would kind of fill in, you know, and that
was like my first taste of radio. So then I
think after Real World course TV was number one. But
when I got that off or, I was like, this
is great, let's go. I went to Saint Louis and
the rest is history.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
And then you applied here. Now you knew Jaman and
kiss one.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Await I didn't apply here if that was actually another
funny story.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Oh you didn't.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
No. I wrote Dylan just like a threatening email, essentially
being like you need me.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
And he was like, who are you?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
He tells this story all the time because they had
no openings on Jaman at the time, and I wanted
to be back in Boston so much because obviously I
went to school here and my friends were here, and
I was like, you you may not have any openings,
but you need me. I have an X factor. I'm
telling you, like I'm made for this radio station, like
you should, you should meet me.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
So he was like, okay, I guess.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Like here's when I have an opening, and I came
and I sat down with him. The full circle moment
was when Pebble's left and there was an opening and
he sent me and he will be like, hey, we're
going to audition some women.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
You can finally come in. You bulled off.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Oh okay, see if you work out see wow yeah
yeah okay.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
But you knew of jammen from going to school in Northeastern.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Used to listen to jam and all the time, went
to monster jams, all of.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
The things like we would pregame at Northeastern parties games
that we would put Jaman on.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Yeah yeah, and a huge Drake fan that yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
I named my dog after Drake and like old school Drake,
like I you know, I liked Drake when Drake wasn't
really as popular obviously as he is now.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. So that's so. Then,
you know, all through all the changes on Jammin, eventually
you get your own show.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
Yes, you know, it was. There was a build up
to it. It didn't happen.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
I had done pretty much every single day part to
get there. And then uh, Dylan again had asked me
to go. He wanted, say, I want to take you
out to dinner, like let's have a conversation and you'll
understand this.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I was like, oh, I don't want to go to
a dinner to just take me to Chick fil A.
I love Chick fil A.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yeah, So we went to the Burlington Mall and we
sat it at Chick fil A and he's like it's like,
he's like, I wanted to do this over a steak
and like maybe some champagne and tell you that it's time.
You've you've you're ready for your own morning show. Like,
but here we are eating nuggets.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
And Chick fil A sauce and yeah. So he said,
you know you finally you're ready. Who do you want?
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I said, I won't do it if it's not with
santi And Santio was at a country station at the time,
so he came over and then speaking of the recent changes,
I also.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Was like, I want DJ Horn on the show. And
that's how we started.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
You built your own show.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
I got to build my own show, yeah, which I
think is a testament to him because he trusted me
enough to know what I needed at the time to
like get this going. I mean, he will leaves in
me a lot, but you know, I think he just
was like, what's going to make you feel the most
comfortable doing.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
This and to give some reference to the listeners right now,
Santi worked for years on JAM and was let go
laid off. That was kind of a hot situation, Okay.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Well, yeah, because when he was like, oh him and
We'remeira did this podcast at things, and so he was
uncomfortable around here for sure.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
And then look at the power that you have. You
said I want him, and they brought him back, which
is amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well, and you know their relationship has certainly had its
up ups and downs, but that they're in a really
good place now and they've.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Come a long way.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I mean, Santi's in his soul, he's not He's a
really great person and I think they just needed to
get past that.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
And they did, absolutely did. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I mean he.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Wouldn't be here if they didn't. There was no he's
here because of that.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah. So you brought up the changes, obviously, which is
partly of the reason I wanted to have you on
other than you're my friend and I love talking to
you and you're very easy to talk to.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Well, thank you, And to be honest, I'm glad you
brought it up because you are one of my best
friends and I'm very defensive of that and I have
been seeing you know, some of the comments and things
you've been getting and it hurts my heart.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
And if it was worth it for me.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
To comment back to some of these people, I would,
but it pains me to see kind of like some
of the heat that you've been taking, as if you
no offense, respectfully, have any sort of power to stop
a situation like this. That day was so hard for
every single one of us. It was such a shock
for every single one of us. You know, I think
a good example and I always give this to people,
(09:29):
is we were kind of told, hey, stay.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
In studios, go back.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
I texted my husband, I said, I'm losing my job
and we're gonna have to move from the house in Marshfield,
Like we're not going about to afford it. I am
losing my job today. That is how much I didn't know.
We didn't know. So when I see people say things
like that, you know they're not listening to Kis win
Wait anymore because of what you did to Winnie or whatever.
The situation like that breaks my heart because that's so
(09:53):
far from the truth. And I'm sorry they have to
deal with that. But that's also like the nature of
our business, which sucks.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Yeah, where public figures as they say that morning that
it all went down people. I really I've told the
story on this podcast before I realized I didn't know
what's happening. I walked out, I saw something was happening
with Winnie. I saw her crying. I immediately texted you
and I wrote, oh my god, oh my god, something's
happening with Winnie, and you wrote back DJ farign too,
and I was like, holy shit. Yeah, so it all
(10:20):
went on at once.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
I have said this a million times.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I get emotional every time anybody losing their job is
just it's so horrifying. And the thing about the two
of them, they're going to be fine because they have
they have in it factor, they have something special that
doesn't make it any better. And you know when people
people will call in my show to tell me about
something else in the middle be like I missborn and
I'm like.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
The truth of the matter is I do too. Like
I'm not going to hide that fact. I do too.
And it sucks because this is radio.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
This is our business, and it's there's great things about
our business and there's really just shit things. I was
shocked that you said shit because I forgot you can
I say shit on here?
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Something well not regulated by the FCS. So both of
us and both of our shows are adjusting to this
kind of new thing. Yeah, that's what it is. We're
trying to find our way. You know, you took a
major piece out of each show, and so here we
are trying to like move forward, fake time. But they
hate has died down. I think people are Initially we're
very angry, and now they're kind of like, okay, like
we get it.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Yeah, And I think in your situation too, if they
actually spoke to Winnie directly, she would say exactly what
we're saying.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I talk to her me too, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
You know I And the same thing goes for foreign
I mean they love all of us.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
It had nothing to do with us.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Yeah, yeah, it sucks. It sucks.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
I think in general, people get mad, they want to
blame somebody, they want to point fingers on one of
them when things happen. Like I kind of resonated in
my brain with like I love certain shows so much.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
I fall in love with characters, right, and when.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
You watch a show like let's use Game of Thrones
for example, Kalisi dies, You're like, fuck this show.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I don't want to watch this show. Without Kalisi, How
am I gonna? And then you continue to watch.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
The show because you love the show. But there's a
part of the show. Oh that's missing, and that's kind
of where we're.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
At transition here. You just brought something here, Yeah, no
about the TV shows. Well, I want to say that
you have two daughters I do, all right, who are
beautiful And you actually just posted a Halloween.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Video Halloween photos, jop.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
It's on your Instagram at Ashley. It's the most extra
thing you'll ever If you know Ashley, if you follow
her on Instagram, you know that she is the most
extra person.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Ever beyond I will say that about myself, by the way,
it's at Ashley Feldsman as h L E E F
E L D m an.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Please go look at my Halloween photo shot. I'm not
a big like.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
I don't post on my feed a ton, but when
I do, you better believe there's been some thought put
into that.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And my Halloween shoot is like my super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah. One time I had an endorsement when I first
started getting them, and the client wanted social media as
part of it, and they wanted something like one feed
post a week, and I was such a newbie to it.
I remember I said that to you, and you go,
are you fucking out of your mind? Do you know
how much they have to pay to get on my feed?
Speaker 3 (12:59):
I was like, I was like, are you first time
you're taking me?
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Sound bougie, But I was like, the fee pos what
such a big deal.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
It is a big deal. It's gonna live, It's.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Gonna live on so go check that out. It's a
Halloween I don't even know video photo shoot. It's incredible.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
It's a combination. Listen.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
It was extremely hard for me to get pregnant for
the second time, and when I did, I remember, this
is crazy.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
This is crazy, ABC. All bisuits are crazy. I'm nuts.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I was pregnant and I thought to myself, we didn't
know what we were having. But if it's a girl,
oh my god, we can beat the Sanderson Sisters for Halloween.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
One year. Here we are. It has come to fruition
the iconic Sisters.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I don't even know, like what went into this and
how much this possibly costs. All I know is I'm
sure your husband has no idea.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
If he's not involved in it, he doesn't ask me anything.
But when he's involved in the questions come, So I.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Don't include him. Yeah, I don't need him.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
So you have your two daughters? How old? How old
are they?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Daisy is a little over one and Leila is going
to be four in December, which is crazy.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, that is crazy. So so Leila and Gemma are
right around the same age. Yes, And what's so funny
about this is I had children first, okay, And so
years ago we were working together. I was the show guy.
I watched all the shows. I had the recommendations. If
he needed the show, you came to justin.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Oh first okay, and he was like at my disposal guys,
cause I didn't have kids.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
So I would call him six seven times a day,
and but did you watch? Did you watch? Did you watch?
And he'd be like, what do you not understanding?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Like, I'm knee deep in diapers right now, I'm trying
to figure out how to parent. I can't watch the
shows actually, like I can't do this anymore like I
was doing.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
You didn't get it.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
I didn't get it. And fast forward.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
If I watched ten minutes, ten minutes of one episode.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
I'm like, honey, I'm winning for the day. Ten minutes.
And if you have young kids like that.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
You understand, it's the fucking wild West in my house,
wild West.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
So I get it now. And it obviously took me
having kids dinners.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Well, we connect a lot about the kids stuff too,
we do, and we talk on the phone every day
and it's so funny because either your kids or my
kids are both will be in the background and we
don't even. I don't even.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
We don't.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
And by the way, when one of them starts crying,
we just go, okay, we just hang up. We don't
need to say good bye anymore, because it's like an
unwritten thing.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Nobody.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
You don't want to hear your own own kids crying
and whiny. I certainly don't want to hear someone else
is like, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Goodbye, right, yeah exactly. Yeah, So all right, so all
is good in your world.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I mean, today's a big day for me with the
Halloween photo shoot. Yeah, I mean, all is good is relative.
Obviously we just chatted about it. Things have changed, but
we just we did a big live show on Friday
in Salem, and I cry. I get emotional, but I
started crying a little bit on air because it was
six am in Salem at Rockefellers, and there was already
(15:37):
like thirteen people at this bar, and I couldn't believe it,
Like they set their alarms in the three to come
see us do the show, and then by eight thirty
I blinked in the place was just swamp.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
There was so many people.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
And you know, I say this all the time on
the show, And there are so many good radio stations
in Boston, yours included, So when people actively wake up
and they choose to listen to ours or they listen
to the podcast, it really is the greatest compliment of
all time because you have so many options at your disposal, podcasts,
all the things. So I'm very appreciative when people choose
(16:08):
to listen to our show.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
As am I and I feel like with Kissing jam
And they've always been kind of, you know, competitors in
a sense.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
We work for and we're the ghetto.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Okay, Like kiss hits all the money, kiss one a
week gets all of the good prizes, kiss one Awake
gets everything, Jamming gets nothing.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
And so that's the real, that's the.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Real, all right. But I have noticed and I've found
that since your show has launched, right how many years now,
like seven yeah. I feel like before people either listen
to kiss or Jamming, they chose they stuck with them,
but now they go back and forth. Yeah, so when
we go to commercial, they go to Ashley. When you
go to commercial, they come to us.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I know we do have a lot of people that
go back and forth, and they love when we fight
or we have like something going on. But I even
got DM's like, oh my gosh, Justin said you're coming
on the after show and you're going to come on
his podcast, and so that just proves that people do
go back and forth. I don't want to cause beef.
I think our show is better, respectfully, but I have to, right,
you should I should feel that I should. Yeah, that's
not well.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
You also have an advantage, you know what that advantage is,
But the audience is different. You can talk about things
that are more sexual. You know. I can't talk about that.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
I know you can, but you can't like you would,
but you can't.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Well, I also think like there's ways you don't have
to say like penis at six am like I do,
but you guys could.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Billy can't be trusted. Yeah, he'll just say things I want.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I want to know Lisa's thoughts on some things, you know.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
But yeah, I mean it's they can't be trusted to
not to kind of ride the line if you will.
So that's just the way it is. But I know,
I know, yeah, So I love you. You know that.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Thank you for having me. I will come on more.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Often if the people want it at a really sure
we can make it. We can make it a thing.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
Can I share one final story?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Please? I'm wondering.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
It's a good story. It's a good story. This really
just goes to show the kind of friend that you are.
I told you this recently. I reminded you. But years ago,
I was going through a tough time with my wife
Jen and I was under the belief I really believed
that she didn't love me anymore and that she didn't
find me attractive, and then she did not want to
sleep with me, and that she was just with me
because we had kids. That's it, I convinced myself. And
(18:15):
it got to a point where we weren't talking and
I was like it's over, Like it's over. So one
day I called Ashley. I was walking in a park
by myself and I called her and I'm like, I'm
just gonna tell her like I'm gonna leave my wife.
And I laid it all out to her, like an
hour long talk, and she was like, are you fucking
(18:36):
out of your mind? She goes, are you done? I
go yeah, she goes, okay, and then she proceeded to
just lay into me for like twenty minutes, and I'll
tell you, by the end of it, I was like,
oh my god, yeah, like what am I thinking?
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
You know, And you gave me advice, which was between
us of things that I need to do and to
work on. And I did those things and I'll never
forget like when it would turned around and we entered
this new chapter in our marriage and we were all good.
I was thinking about you and I'm like, imagine if
I never.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Called culture, I'm so thankful that you did.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
And you know what, this is a real testament to
our friendship because we will both you know, we will
say what we want to say, and sometimes it's hertful.
But you look at someone like Britney Spears and you're like,
it's sad. She has no real friends, she has no
one to sit her down and be like, get out
of your foolia, get better, extensions, stop be a good mond.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Just have anybody. She just has.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
People say you always need someone that's going to tell
you by yourself, you do and by the.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Way, and let's and also marriage is a lot of work.
Just in general, we can get a lot of Marriage
is a full time job as well.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
It's definitely a lot. Yeah, definitely a lot. Yeah. Uh oh.
We didn't even mention Mike, your husband.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
Shout out to We don't say his name, shout out
to the fireman.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Fireman.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
He doesn't like to be known. He hates. He has actively.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Said to me many a time, sometimes I wish you
just worked at like Duncan. Yeah, you know, he hates
the attention of it all. But he's the best dude.
He definitely compliments me. He's the office, yeah of me.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
One of the first things that was said to me
by an experienced person in radio when I was an
intern was that they said, if you continue to work
in radio, you're gonna learn that the people that matter
the most in your life, right, that mean the most,
do not give one fucknut that you work on the radio.
You know what I mean? And it's so true. My
wife doesn't care. My wife listens to your fucking show.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Okay, she's a big fan of the passion you have
morning shows.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
It's great, okay, all right, see now now we've got
to wrap things up. But thank you very much, and
