It's honestly kind of almost a little like you know,
because I haven't seen my my mom and dad and
well you've never seen a picture of you at this
age with them, you know, you know, it weirds me
out a lot, but it kind of reminds me of
it when I'm watching h Instagram or something or whatever TikTok,
and I see the celebrities kind of like walking as
(04:27):
celebrities from when they did a show or movie or whatever,
and then they get older in the pictures and stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
That's why I kind of I love I love those.
That's dope. Great gifts, really cool you guys, Like what
made you guys do this? Wow?
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
I feel like when you get a gift, like for
something such a high honor like that, you can't just
get like gift cards or like just something off the street.
You got to be like very creative and sentimental. So
Lydia can add on to them. Oh yeah, I was.
Speaker 5 (04:57):
I was like trying to think, like, what is the
perfect gift that we could get you, Like, what's.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
A good gift. Well, we were going back.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
And forth and there were a few things that came across.
They just weren't good enough. And this is what felt
like was best.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
Can I tell you guys something though, And this is
the first off, This is unbelievable. This is so cool
that this and then the Joe Maroon you know picture
that he took. It was like to me, like such
cool things. Did I sign that bottom one like Joe did?
Or now can I say something to all of you guys?
(05:30):
And this goes for all the people that were there,
The fact that you guys were all there and we
got to do that together, the you know, having there
were so many groups of family of mine that were there.
There was my family with Chelsea and Joe and Jacob
and Luke that were there. Then my brothers, my sisters,
(05:53):
you know, spouses and things. You know that we're all there,
which is so cool because that's such a huge part.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Of me too.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Then the radio family people from way back when that
came in, all the way to the current staff that
was here and salespeople that were part of this. But
you guys getting a chance because we tell stories every
single day on the air, and we talk all the
time about our experiences in life, and we talk to
(06:20):
the listeners about things that we've gone through. You guys
put faces to stories and to see the reaction that
you guys had.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
When I met Brad Yeager in first like when you got.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Yeah when that and and honestly to see like my
sister and to see you know, the relationship that like
she felt like meeting Kevin completed her because she listens
every single morning in Chicago to the show and Kevin
gave her the biggest damn hug and she talks about
(06:51):
that all the time.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
So that this is this is really cool.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
They were there with me that night, and anybody that
lose a loved one, I want you to understand this.
It ain't easy. The holidays suck, you know, And I
still will tell you this that I wish that more
than ever my parents are still here, because I wish
that the boys and Chelsea, who never got a chance
to be with my mom, got a chance to be.
(07:18):
But I felt their presence that night more than ever.
And I think the presence that in the fact that
you guys went and did this thing really exemplifies I
think God kind of moving in wild ways because that
night all I kept thinking was they were there, you
know knows horn Yeah, Well, I love you guys.
Speaker 1 (07:43):

You guys, by the way, are literally uh sisters to
each other, but like a like daughter sisters to me too.
So I'm tired of making everybody my daughter's because, to
be quite honest with you, it just makes me feel
like I'm old. No, by the way, could you not
have darkened whoever did this? Could they have darkened me
up a little bit? Although I'm a pretty good looking
gray man, great.
