He is our.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Very favorite soon to be retired news anchor. Yeah, the
announcement was just made here recently, Ladies and gentlemen, the
Jim Donovan.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Jay, Hey guys from you, Hey, oh.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Man, congratulations first and foremost. I know we were just
doing like a little bit of texting, but dude, I
feel you. I mean, after however many years of that
super dark outside still alarm clock jeez.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah decade at two am. The alarm goes off at
two AM. I go to bed at six. I'm like
in a nursing home without Jello.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
You're not going to miss it at all, Jim, No,
not at all.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Not. I'm running to the door with a smile on
my face. Come good luck, everybody.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yeah, yeah, we we. We learned about Jim a number
of years ago just from the clips that were online
of covering different news tours. Like, dude, this guy's hilarious.
Like we just we just loved your your energy, your personality,
your delivery. Yeah, just the the persona and uh and
then we would have Jim on the air and just
kind of giving us his takes on different news tours
and that's just how he got our attention. But he is, uh,
(01:31):
just a just a just a really good guy. And
I'm always excited for someone to see, uh, to see
somebody do things on their on their own terms. Man.
So that's that's great.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I am very fortunate because you know, the way this
business choose people up and spits them out. I mean,
I've had twenty two years here in Philly. Yeah, thirty
nine year career. I've always been employed, and I've always
made my choices, and you know, it's just the time
is right now. I mean for me to just you know,
step back. I mean a lot of it has to do,
(02:00):
quite honestly, with the schedule. I mean it's I try
to normalize it as much as I can and convince
myself that this is fine. But every time I do
a story that says, you know, lack of sleep's going
to kill your're going, I look at my co anchor
and I'm like, you know, we got to get out
of here. We go? Yeah yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Mean, Jim, you are a treasure.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
They did they try to like sweet talking, Hey man,
I'll give you the evening or the afternoon slot instead
of retiring because we need you here at CBS three.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
No, I mean they were very nice. So this date,
believe it or not, So my official date last day
on air is December nineteenth, but my official date that
I leave the company is January fifth, coming up, twenty
twenty sixth And in two thousand and eight I wrote
that down on a post it note. Who really on
(02:49):
my death? It was during the recession, one of those
days where the stock market was crashing and our four
own caves were bleeding money, and I remember having my
head down on my desk and one of my colleagues
walked by, you're not getting pulling your money out of
your four ow and k I said, leave me alone
in my misery, and I thought, I need a date.
I need a date to kind of focus on. And
(03:10):
then each contract that I signed just gets me closer
and closer to that date. So my date is January fifth,
twenty six So that I wrote down way back in
two thousand and eight.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
So Jim like, how old are you now?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Fifty nine?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Fifty nine? All right, So Sea Best, what were you
talking about? Because Sea Bess mentioned.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
This, there's there's a principle that's been floating around called
financial independence retire early, meaning that you you really really
buckle down the first you know, let's say ten fifteen
years or so of.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Your career, financial independence, retire of fire, so you fire
people yourself right now.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Jim has clearly pulled that off to retire at the
age of thirty nine.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Yeah, so yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Well I will tell you now, if I were in
my forties, that's the fire people Mine is all about
fifty nine and a half. You can get into your
four what k.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
That's like? What kind of advice? Because I think that
is the dream first of all, the dream I think
for a lot of people is just to be able
to retire at some point right now, to retire earlier,
just to you know what, what advice? What advice would
you have for people who are listening who want to
do what you're doing, because not married, no kids, I
would assume like would be number one and number two
(04:21):
right yeah, so.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
That's the easiest thing with me. But I mean, just
take advantage, take advantage of whatever your company offers, yes,
because I mean there's so many different things before when
came matches, they have health savings, plans, flexible spending accounts,
whatever they offer you that can possibly allow you to
scroll money away for longer periods of time. And you know,
(04:45):
every time you get a raised, then put extra money
in there, even if it's ten. I started years ago
when I worked at a network job in New York.
I wasn't particularly happy where I was, and I remember
just thinking, you know, I've got to figure out some
way out of here. One of my friends that was
a manager, said, just put money. Start putting money twenty
bucks a paycheck in a side account. And she said,
(05:09):
as that thing grows, you're gonna feel less and less
stressed because you're not going to have the pressure of
thinking I don't have enough money to even make it
through the next two weeks. And I started doing that,
and I mean within six months. The boss that I
was working for that used to drive me crazy. He
didn't bother me anymore because I thought, well, now at
least I have a little bit of a gap. Also,
(05:29):
I don't spend a lot of money. I drive a
fifteen year old car, you know, and I'll probably do something. Look,
I'm retiring from television and broadcasting, but I'm not retiring
from life. I mean, I'll do other things, not necessarily
for a paycheck, but I'm sure I'll volunteer for some
nonprofits and do other things.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, sometimes you're gonna you're gonna stumble into something else
that not paying what you make now or whatever. But
there'll be something coming to you.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Be busy.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Yeahah, you're another third chapter. I mean, but before I
was in TV full time, I was worked for an
airline that one. Yeah, can you imagine God from just
from that? And that was several years.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
For People's Airlines, if I'm remembering correctly.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
People Expressed people That's right, That's right. Yeah, and then
it became Conmental and then became United, which is now United. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
People's Express was the airline that my uh, you know,
my parents were divorced when I was very young, and
you know, I grew up just outside of Philadelphia, and
then my dad and the rest of the family was
in Pittsburgh, and so my mom had put me on
a plane by myself at a very young age to
fly to go see my dad in Pittsburgh. Uh and uh,
and it was People's Express. Was, yeah, you'd.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Pay on the plane, You'd pay on the plane.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Well, I think my mom handed me before I got
on the plane.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
But yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
On that Jim could have been one of the attendants
making sure that I got to my dad. On the
other end, we don't, we don't. So we're talking to
Jim down, our favorite soon to be retired news anchor
in America. Again. We we just we just loved him.
But we're we're very we're very happy for you. Yeah.
So this this car, that that that you've been driving
(07:05):
for the last fifteen years, I mean, are you still
gonna drive it? Are you gonna get yourself a retirement vehicle?
And also my follow up question, what do you think
about the cyber truck?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (07:13):
God, no, you just can't handle Why do you say
no like that? I agree with you. I think it's it's.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Ugly, ugly car. I just it looks like some kind
of space thing. And people, you know between California, who's
driving around South Jersey with that thing right.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Himself? We think we think it's like competating for something. Ye,
it's definitely like one of those look at me purchases.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that wouldn't be the top of my
list for a new vehicle. But no, I'm driving my
thing into it. It's transportation gets me from point A
to point B. And besides, in Philadelphia, everyone nicks your car,
scratches your car, keys your car.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Yeah I'm not doing that all right? So, uh, what
is the TV station done for you for this retirement?
Are they planning like some kind of big like some
going away not on the air on the air. I'm
sure they're gonna do something. I mean like behind the scenes,
like we're it really matters. Are they gonna do anything
to get a watch? Like what do you get on
the way out after that that long service?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I don't know. I did get an Apple watch when
I hit twenty years.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Oh nice.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
So I don't know what they're giving me. I mean,
if they're organizing something, I know on TV they're throwing
this thing, the Five Days of Jim. I'm like, I
don't know what this is. If I gonna pull old
videotapes like when they tried to kill me with the
Hot Chip challenge and stuff like that, yeah, I'm the
only thing. We'll do it. I'm the only way they
tell me things that hey, we're thinking about doing such
(08:41):
and such, which you do I'm like you, I'll do
it if it's good. TV Morning TV. I'll do it.
I mean it's like you know, he always has and
most other anchors won't.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
He always has like special thing he brings in ice
cream every week. Jim. Jim is always known for his
fun socks that he wears. He posts on social media.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Oh, that's the one bucket list thing. That's the one
we're trying to get Guinness to certify. So right now,
I have a little over fifteen hundred pairs of socks,
which is the current world record. I get the record's
like eleven hundred or so, some way ahead of them,
so believe it or not, after thirty nine years in TV,
that's the only thing left on the bucket list is
to get them to certify as the world's largest collections
(09:21):
of socks.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
He wears this this Eagle suit after the Eagles victory.
You're known for so many things, Jim.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
I am concerned though, Who's going to make the waffles
when it rains?
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah? Yeah, the waffles when it comes to blizzards and stuff.
I mean, I could leave my waffle maker behind, but
they're too busy because he's out of way to be
able to make stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Looks Also, these stations they keep firing more and more people,
and then the other people have to pick up the
slackers out. They're hiring people to replace these people. It's
like it's just downsizing and downsizing.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
But now everything's going to AI and virtual. So that's
the I was trying to get out before they put
me in our virtual studio because it would give me
a headache. I tried it a few times of like,
this is not right. Need to I need an old
fashioned desk in the computer I can't get here. So
but they've again, they've been just absolutely great to I mean,
I have a good run, especially in Philadelphia. This town
(10:10):
is the best news town. They they're crazy. People here
are crazy, but you know they're crazy about the sports
and their cheese, steaks and everything else.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But I just love them.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
I would never have thought I would have had an
amazing twenty two year run here, but they welcome me
into their homes and I've just been just blessed from
the day I've moved here.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Well, they've been lucky to have you. We we love you,
and we're super happy and excited for you. And what
in fact, can you hang on for like just one
more second, because there are two there are two news
stories that I want to get your opinion. This is
like a good way to go out right.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
And by the way, and.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Even after you're retired, like you're not gonna have much
to do. I mean, so can we can we call
you from time to time and just kind of check in.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh definitely. And now I'm going to be able to
listen to you all the time as opposed to just
the days that I have off.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Right, you're going to be dying to talk about the news,
I'm sure. Oh yeah, you come in all right, Jim
Donovan from CBS Television.
Speaker 6 (11:04):
In Philadelphia announcing his his impending retirement and just for
old times stake, when we come back, we're gonna get
Jim's opinion on a couple of these stories that are
in the news that'll be next here on the Woody Show.
Speaker 5 (11:16):
Hang on, I'm gonna say.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
The Woody Show, The Woody Show. All right, So we
got Jim Donovan who's still on the phone with us.
Thank you for for hanging with and thank you for
agreeing to call. I'm sure your pr schedule after the
retiring announcement. It's just been just insane.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
It's been funny. It's been funny reading the articles and
work they're using. I'm just kind of like, that's sure
they have the right people here. I watched, Yeah, it's
been very nice.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
I watched the announcement Jim that you gave that you
were going to retire, and you weren't overly emotional.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Your co anchor was very because Jim very Jim's out.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Jim.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Now. My voice cracked at one point because I saw
her off the corner of my eye and I told
her before we were going back on air, I said,
please please hold it together because I can't get and
I saw her off the credit because I just adore her.
Janelle is like the best partner that I've had, you know,
at that desk, and you know, it's like a ballroom dancing.
(12:23):
The two of you need to dance at the same time,
the same speed. So I mean, she's been a great partner.
But yeah, I was trying to hold it together because
I thought, Okay, just get through this sonoument quickly.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Jim donov is our favorite news anchor in America and uh,
we've we've been aware of him for for many years,
have him on the show to talk about different news stories,
which I'm gonna do here in in in just one
moment and there there. Like I said, there are a
couple a couple of news stories that we want to
get your opinion. But if you want to give some well,
which is just follow Jim on social media and you
(12:54):
can find him. We obvious see him on on Instagram.
He's uh, he's always there and posting his posting his videos.
And you can see the socks every day. Yeah, the
socks and the ice cream I've in fact I learned
about it. There are a couple of different ice creams
that I didn't even realize were a thing. Oh and
then it wasn't until Jim Donovan posted about it.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, ice cream Tuesday, very important ice cream Tuesdays.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Let me ask you the typical question. I mean, you've
covered a lot of things, a lot of things have
happened in the course of your career. What do you
think is the thing that you will never forget, Like
the one thing, the one moment you know, was it
a news event, was something that happened in the studio.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
There are three big stories. One obviously nine to eleven
because I'm from New York and I covered that for
several weeks, went back to New York. Number two is
the Pope visited Philadelphia and that's when I was moved
over to the anchor desk. So that was my first
anchoring experience because before that I was the consumer guy.
And then I happened to be in England when the
Queen died and they left me in London for ten days.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
That's right, I remember that.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Yeah, yeah, And I got on television using an iPad
that I nicknamed Izzy. It was logically very difficult, and
I near my head nearly exploded every day, but it
was an amazing experience. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
I mean you've seen him, been party to a lot
of cool things in that time. All right, Jim Donovan
on the news, Here we go, welcome back. I heated
up the syrup and like a fond thing.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Listen, I'm petrified of deer ticks. We've got to eat here, people,
because there's a store.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Okay, Well, the first story, and it's been one that
we've been coming back to a couple of times. I
thought of you, actually, because I remember the video that
you posted on your social media. Remember when you got
chased down by the bees at home?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Oh yeah, and I jumped in the pool jumped in
the pool.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Yeah, you jumped in the pool. Now, I had heard
that you're not supposed to do that. It's really not
the way to get away from the bees, Like, you're
not supposed to get they'll wait for you.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Yeah, they'll be hovering and they'll wait above the water.
They'll cover above the water.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I didn't know that at the time.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Yeah, but you do what you gotta do, all right.
So the story about how those monkeys got loose, right, Like,
we've been talking about this for you know, a while now. Yeah, now, Jim,
would that be something that would make you nervous if
there were like these monkeys on the loose in the
town in which you live. Is that something that you
would be nervous about or just you would just think
is more kind of fun?
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Oh? No, that would be I mean I live out
in the woods. I have skunks and deer and coyote
around here, some monkeys. And they were old monkeys, weren't
they They were old so they couldn't move very fast.
They're like me. They were a pre retirement.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
You wouldn't be afraid though, face to face with the
monkey in the woods.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
No, I'm afraid of mice. But I'm not monkeys, don't.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Afraid Are you afraid of Are you afraid of bugs? No?
Speaker 6 (15:45):
No?
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Okay, Greg, Yeah, I can't Greg Greg here on our show.
He's very afraid about it. In fact, he's he's afraid
of butterflies, every bug, you name it, I hate it. Yeah,
but is that weird? Butterfly?
Speaker 6 (15:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Butterflies therapist for them?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I should bugs. Yeah, he's afraid of all of them,
all right. So the next story that we have here
for Jim is this guy. His son had posted about
this and they got picked up on the news. He
says his dad was done dirty by Home Depot. His
dad had been working there for twenty seven years, decided
it was time to hang up the old orange apron
and retire. Now did he get a party, No? Did
(16:22):
he get a plaque? No, any kind of recognition, none
at all. The only thing he got from the store
he got to go home early, I guess that day,
and he was given a Snickers by one other employee
and then some oreos by a different employee who were
just trying to make his last day feel special. And
so people are now blasting Home Depot saying that they
(16:43):
didn't even do the bare minimum, and they need to
treat their employees with more respect. Now, let's just say
you were in this situation there at CBS Television in Philadelphia,
and all they did was say that you can go
home early, and then your coworkers gave you like a
Snickers and a pack of Oreos. Would you care?
Speaker 6 (17:03):
Not?
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Really the same thought. I'm like, God, who cares. I'm
so dumb at this place. I don't need a big Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I think people put a lot of put a lot
of stuff into you know what the expectation is and party.
I mean, I've already told them listen, I'm not really
big into parties. If it makes them happy, then that's fine.
But I don't need and I don't need any more stuff.
I've got more stuff in my life, like trinkets and stuff,
and I'm like, what am I gonna do with all
this crap? So no, I'd rather if they could let
(17:34):
me go a few hours earlier. I'd be like, Okay,
thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
I felt the same way because people are like really
on home depot about this. I'm like, first of all,
like you're retiring from home depot, Like you didn't start
the company. You didn't like like you worked there. That's fine.
You had a good job you apparently enjoyed. You were
there for twenty seven years, or you stuck it out
for twenty seven years. Either way, like you've decided that
you're done and you're moving on.
Speaker 8 (17:58):
I mean, do you at least get a bucket?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
I don't. I don't. Yeah, yeah, so, Jim, I mean,
you know, for a guy not married, no kids, I'm
assuming you're alread kind of living in the house. Typically
people in that stage would maybe downsize. But you've spent
so much time with this house and doing all the remodeling.
Are you just going to stick stick where you are?
Are you going to relocate for retirement?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
What are you doing at this point? Not sure chances
are going to relocate after I want to enjoy the house.
I mean literally, I've been renovating this thing for seven years. Yeah. Right,
So it's a big stone house that just needs a
lot of work. But I don't need that much space.
Two bedroom too bad condos somewhere.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Yeah, still somewhere like in the northeaster. I think maybe
you'll do what to most people in the Northeast do
and just flock to Florida, Florida.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
I've actually looked at Florida, so I am poventually considering
Florida a certain area in Florida, so looking at it,
just not sure.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Yeah, well, Jim, we're again. We're super happy for you
and we appreciate you taking some time to talk with us. Again.
Just just just congratulate, listens, and.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Enjoy the last I appreciate it the.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Last handful of time. I mean, I fantasize about that day.
You know where the alarm clock doesn't.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Go to post it note? Ye, write it down on
a post it note and leave it up to the universe.
I believe that if you manifest things. I mean I've
every time that I've ever written something down on a
post it note and just stick it on my desk
in my office at home, I'm just like, Okay, I
need the universe to handle this and it gets taken
care of. I don't know whether I'm just naive and
it was going to happen anyway, but I mean it's
(19:30):
like if I think, if people just focus on the
positive and just keep moving forward and let the negative
stuff drop, good things happen, and I mean everyone leaves.
I've never seen an unhappy retired news anchor before. Guys.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I mean my plan is, like you said, write it
down on a post it note, but I have I
have with this out there. I mean even even the
company that I work for knows this is Like I'm
willing to commit to this schedule like where you know
you're talking about like your alarm clock going off at
two o'clock in the morning. Same, right, I'm going to
commit to that until my kids get out of high school.
And right now, my daughter's in seventh grade, so do
the math, you know, and then after that, like uh,
(20:07):
you know, I'm forty nine now, so that that's that's
also good timing. But then uh, not that I wouldn't
want to do something because I think I met be
a little bored, you'd get. But I'm definitely not going
to be doing it at these hours. So that's my
that's want. That's my post that.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
You want to work to live, not live to work.
You want to work to put a roof over your head,
send your kids to school, clothes on the back, food
and the table of vacation in return.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, my thing is I just want the kids to go. Yeah,
I just want my I just want my kids to
go through uh through high school, get through high school,
living in the same house with the same friends like
I cause I didn't have that and so that that's
why it's important to me. But yeah, hey, if they
fire me tomorrow, kids are still going to finish out
high school where they're at right now and uh and
we'll figure it out. But Jim again, congratulations, we love
(20:54):

doesn't really happen.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
I was going to say, is that how? I mean?
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Maybe and swap meets are supposed to be on a
smaller scale, but I see swap meets just as big
as flea markets.
Speaker 8 (22:10):
So I don't know, I don't know, And swap would
be where.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
I'd find most of my like a knockoff stolen merchandise.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Very favorite soon to be retired news anchor. Yeah, the
announcement was just made here recently, Ladies and gentlemen, the
Jim Donovan.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Jay, Hey guys from you, Hey, oh.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Man, congratulations first and foremost. I know we were just
doing like a little bit of texting, but dude, I
feel you. I mean, after however many years of that
super dark outside still alarm clock jeez.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah decade at two am. The alarm goes off at
two AM. I go to bed at six. I'm like
in a nursing home without Jello.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
You're not going to miss it at all, Jim, No,
not at all.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Not. I'm running to the door with a smile on
my face. Come good luck, everybody.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Yeah, yeah, we we. We learned about Jim a number
of years ago just from the clips that were online
of covering different news tours. Like, dude, this guy's hilarious.
Like we just we just loved your your energy, your personality,
your delivery. Yeah, just the the persona and uh and
then we would have Jim on the air and just
kind of giving us his takes on different news tours
and that's just how he got our attention. But he is, uh,
(01:31):
just a just a just a really good guy. And
I'm always excited for someone to see, uh, to see
somebody do things on their on their own terms. Man.
So that's that's great.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I am very fortunate because you know, the way this
business choose people up and spits them out. I mean,
I've had twenty two years here in Philly. Yeah, thirty
nine year career. I've always been employed, and I've always
made my choices, and you know, it's just the time
is right now. I mean for me to just you know,
step back. I mean a lot of it has to do,
(02:00):
quite honestly, with the schedule. I mean it's I try
to normalize it as much as I can and convince
myself that this is fine. But every time I do
a story that says, you know, lack of sleep's going
to kill your're going, I look at my co anchor
and I'm like, you know, we got to get out
of here. We go? Yeah yeah, I.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Mean, Jim, you are a treasure.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
They did they try to like sweet talking, Hey man,
I'll give you the evening or the afternoon slot instead
of retiring because we need you here at CBS three.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
No, I mean they were very nice. So this date,
believe it or not, So my official date last day
on air is December nineteenth, but my official date that
I leave the company is January fifth, coming up, twenty
twenty sixth And in two thousand and eight I wrote
that down on a post it note. Who really on
(02:49):
my death? It was during the recession, one of those
days where the stock market was crashing and our four
own caves were bleeding money, and I remember having my
head down on my desk and one of my colleagues
walked by, you're not getting pulling your money out of
your four ow and k I said, leave me alone
in my misery, and I thought, I need a date.
I need a date to kind of focus on. And
(03:10):
then each contract that I signed just gets me closer
and closer to that date. So my date is January fifth,
twenty six So that I wrote down way back in
two thousand and eight.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
So Jim like, how old are you now?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Fifty nine?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Fifty nine? All right, So Sea Best, what were you
talking about? Because Sea Bess mentioned.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
This, there's there's a principle that's been floating around called
financial independence retire early, meaning that you you really really
buckle down the first you know, let's say ten fifteen
years or so of.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Your career, financial independence, retire of fire, so you fire
people yourself right now.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Jim has clearly pulled that off to retire at the
age of thirty nine.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Yeah, so yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Well I will tell you now, if I were in
my forties, that's the fire people Mine is all about
fifty nine and a half. You can get into your
four what k.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
That's like? What kind of advice? Because I think that
is the dream first of all, the dream I think
for a lot of people is just to be able
to retire at some point right now, to retire earlier,
just to you know what, what advice? What advice would
you have for people who are listening who want to
do what you're doing, because not married, no kids, I
would assume like would be number one and number two
(04:21):
right yeah, so.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
That's the easiest thing with me. But I mean, just
take advantage, take advantage of whatever your company offers, yes,
because I mean there's so many different things before when
came matches, they have health savings, plans, flexible spending accounts,
whatever they offer you that can possibly allow you to
scroll money away for longer periods of time. And you know,
(04:45):
every time you get a raised, then put extra money
in there, even if it's ten. I started years ago
when I worked at a network job in New York.
I wasn't particularly happy where I was, and I remember
just thinking, you know, I've got to figure out some
way out of here. One of my friends that was
a manager, said, just put money. Start putting money twenty
bucks a paycheck in a side account. And she said,
(05:09):
as that thing grows, you're gonna feel less and less
stressed because you're not going to have the pressure of
thinking I don't have enough money to even make it
through the next two weeks. And I started doing that,
and I mean within six months. The boss that I
was working for that used to drive me crazy. He
didn't bother me anymore because I thought, well, now at
least I have a little bit of a gap. Also,
(05:29):
I don't spend a lot of money. I drive a
fifteen year old car, you know, and I'll probably do something. Look,
I'm retiring from television and broadcasting, but I'm not retiring
from life. I mean, I'll do other things, not necessarily
for a paycheck, but I'm sure I'll volunteer for some
nonprofits and do other things.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, sometimes you're gonna you're gonna stumble into something else
that not paying what you make now or whatever. But
there'll be something coming to you.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
Be busy.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Yeahah, you're another third chapter. I mean, but before I
was in TV full time, I was worked for an
airline that one. Yeah, can you imagine God from just
from that? And that was several years.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
For People's Airlines, if I'm remembering correctly.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
People Expressed people That's right, That's right. Yeah, and then
it became Conmental and then became United, which is now United. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
People's Express was the airline that my uh, you know,
my parents were divorced when I was very young, and
you know, I grew up just outside of Philadelphia, and
then my dad and the rest of the family was
in Pittsburgh, and so my mom had put me on
a plane by myself at a very young age to
fly to go see my dad in Pittsburgh. Uh and uh,
and it was People's Express. Was, yeah, you'd.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Pay on the plane, You'd pay on the plane.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Well, I think my mom handed me before I got
on the plane.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
But yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
On that Jim could have been one of the attendants
making sure that I got to my dad. On the
other end, we don't, we don't. So we're talking to
Jim down, our favorite soon to be retired news anchor
in America. Again. We we just we just loved him.
But we're we're very we're very happy for you. Yeah.
So this this car, that that that you've been driving
(07:05):
for the last fifteen years, I mean, are you still
gonna drive it? Are you gonna get yourself a retirement vehicle?
And also my follow up question, what do you think
about the cyber truck?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (07:13):
God, no, you just can't handle Why do you say
no like that? I agree with you. I think it's it's.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Ugly, ugly car. I just it looks like some kind
of space thing. And people, you know between California, who's
driving around South Jersey with that thing right.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Himself? We think we think it's like competating for something. Ye,
it's definitely like one of those look at me purchases.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Yeah yeah, yeah, that wouldn't be the top of my
list for a new vehicle. But no, I'm driving my
thing into it. It's transportation gets me from point A
to point B. And besides, in Philadelphia, everyone nicks your car,
scratches your car, keys your car.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Yeah I'm not doing that all right? So, uh, what
is the TV station done for you for this retirement?
Are they planning like some kind of big like some
going away not on the air on the air. I'm
sure they're gonna do something. I mean like behind the scenes,
like we're it really matters. Are they gonna do anything
to get a watch? Like what do you get on
the way out after that that long service?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I don't know. I did get an Apple watch when
I hit twenty years.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Oh nice.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
So I don't know what they're giving me. I mean,
if they're organizing something, I know on TV they're throwing
this thing, the Five Days of Jim. I'm like, I
don't know what this is. If I gonna pull old
videotapes like when they tried to kill me with the
Hot Chip challenge and stuff like that, yeah, I'm the
only thing. We'll do it. I'm the only way they
tell me things that hey, we're thinking about doing such
(08:41):
and such, which you do I'm like you, I'll do
it if it's good. TV Morning TV. I'll do it.
I mean it's like you know, he always has and
most other anchors won't.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
He always has like special thing he brings in ice
cream every week. Jim. Jim is always known for his
fun socks that he wears. He posts on social media.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Oh, that's the one bucket list thing. That's the one
we're trying to get Guinness to certify. So right now,
I have a little over fifteen hundred pairs of socks,
which is the current world record. I get the record's
like eleven hundred or so, some way ahead of them,
so believe it or not, after thirty nine years in TV,
that's the only thing left on the bucket list is
to get them to certify as the world's largest collections
(09:21):
of socks.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
He wears this this Eagle suit after the Eagles victory.
You're known for so many things, Jim.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
I am concerned though, Who's going to make the waffles
when it rains?
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah? Yeah, the waffles when it comes to blizzards and stuff.
I mean, I could leave my waffle maker behind, but
they're too busy because he's out of way to be
able to make stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Looks Also, these stations they keep firing more and more people,
and then the other people have to pick up the
slackers out. They're hiring people to replace these people. It's
like it's just downsizing and downsizing.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
But now everything's going to AI and virtual. So that's
the I was trying to get out before they put
me in our virtual studio because it would give me
a headache. I tried it a few times of like,
this is not right. Need to I need an old
fashioned desk in the computer I can't get here. So
but they've again, they've been just absolutely great to I mean,
I have a good run, especially in Philadelphia. This town
(10:10):
is the best news town. They they're crazy. People here
are crazy, but you know they're crazy about the sports
and their cheese, steaks and everything else.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
But I just love them.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
I would never have thought I would have had an
amazing twenty two year run here, but they welcome me
into their homes and I've just been just blessed from
the day I've moved here.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Well, they've been lucky to have you. We we love you,
and we're super happy and excited for you. And what
in fact, can you hang on for like just one
more second, because there are two there are two news

Even after you're retired, like you're not gonna have much
to do. I mean, so can we can we call
you from time to time and just kind of check in.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Oh definitely. And now I'm going to be able to
listen to you all the time as opposed to just
the days that I have off.
Speaker 1 (10:57):

I'm sure. Oh yeah, you come in all right, Jim
Donovan from CBS Television.

In Philadelphia announcing his his impending retirement and just for
old times stake, when we come back, we're gonna get
Jim's opinion on a couple of these stories that are
in the news that'll be next here on the Woody Show.

Thank you for for hanging with and thank you for
agreeing to call. I'm sure your pr schedule after the
retiring announcement. It's just been just insane.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
It's been funny. It's been funny reading the articles and
work they're using. I'm just kind of like, that's sure
they have the right people here. I watched, Yeah, it's
been very nice.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
I watched the announcement Jim that you gave that you
were going to retire, and you weren't overly emotional.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Your co anchor was very because Jim very Jim's out.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Jim.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Now. My voice cracked at one point because I saw
her off the corner of my eye and I told
her before we were going back on air, I said,
please please hold it together because I can't get and
I saw her off the credit because I just adore her.
Janelle is like the best partner that I've had, you know,
at that desk, and you know, it's like a ballroom dancing.
(12:23):
The two of you need to dance at the same time,
the same speed. So I mean, she's been a great partner.
But yeah, I was trying to hold it together because
I thought, Okay, just get through this sonoument quickly.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Jim donov is our favorite news anchor in America and uh,
we've we've been aware of him for for many years,
have him on the show to talk about different news stories,
which I'm gonna do here in in in just one
moment and there there. Like I said, there are a
couple a couple of news stories that we want to
get your opinion. But if you want to give some well,
which is just follow Jim on social media and you
(12:54):
can find him. We obvious see him on on Instagram.
He's uh, he's always there and posting his posting his videos.
And you can see the socks every day. Yeah, the
socks and the ice cream I've in fact I learned
about it. There are a couple of different ice creams
that I didn't even realize were a thing. Oh and
then it wasn't until Jim Donovan posted about it.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, ice cream Tuesday, very important ice cream Tuesdays.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Let me ask you the typical question. I mean, you've
covered a lot of things, a lot of things have
happened in the course of your career. What do you
think is the thing that you will never forget, Like
the one thing, the one moment you know, was it
a news event, was something that happened in the studio.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
There are three big stories. One obviously nine to eleven
because I'm from New York and I covered that for
several weeks, went back to New York. Number two is
the Pope visited Philadelphia and that's when I was moved
over to the anchor desk. So that was my first
anchoring experience because before that I was the consumer guy.
And then I happened to be in England when the
Queen died and they left me in London for ten days.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
That's right, I remember that.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Yeah, yeah, And I got on television using an iPad
that I nicknamed Izzy. It was logically very difficult, and
I near my head nearly exploded every day, but it
was an amazing experience. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
I mean you've seen him, been party to a lot
of cool things in that time. All right, Jim Donovan
on the news, Here we go, welcome back. I heated
up the syrup and like a fond thing.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Listen, I'm petrified of deer ticks. We've got to eat here, people,
because there's a store.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Okay, Well, the first story, and it's been one that
we've been coming back to a couple of times. I
thought of you, actually, because I remember the video that
you posted on your social media. Remember when you got
chased down by the bees at home?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Oh yeah, and I jumped in the pool jumped in
the pool.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Yeah, you jumped in the pool. Now, I had heard
that you're not supposed to do that. It's really not
the way to get away from the bees, Like, you're
not supposed to get they'll wait for you.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Yeah, they'll be hovering and they'll wait above the water.
They'll cover above the water.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I didn't know that at the time.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Yeah, but you do what you gotta do, all right.
So the story about how those monkeys got loose, right, Like,
we've been talking about this for you know, a while now. Yeah, now, Jim,
would that be something that would make you nervous if
there were like these monkeys on the loose in the
town in which you live. Is that something that you
would be nervous about or just you would just think
is more kind of fun?
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Oh? No, that would be I mean I live out
in the woods. I have skunks and deer and coyote
around here, some monkeys. And they were old monkeys, weren't
they They were old so they couldn't move very fast.
They're like me. They were a pre retirement.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
You wouldn't be afraid though, face to face with the
monkey in the woods.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
No, I'm afraid of mice. But I'm not monkeys, don't.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Afraid Are you afraid of Are you afraid of bugs? No?
Speaker 6 (15:45):
No?
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Okay, Greg, Yeah, I can't Greg Greg here on our show.
He's very afraid about it. In fact, he's he's afraid
of butterflies, every bug, you name it, I hate it. Yeah,
but is that weird? Butterfly?
Speaker 6 (15:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Butterflies therapist for them?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I should bugs. Yeah, he's afraid of all of them,
all right. So the next story that we have here
for Jim is this guy. His son had posted about
this and they got picked up on the news. He
says his dad was done dirty by Home Depot. His
dad had been working there for twenty seven years, decided
it was time to hang up the old orange apron
and retire. Now did he get a party, No? Did
(16:22):
he get a plaque? No, any kind of recognition, none
at all. The only thing he got from the store
he got to go home early, I guess that day,
and he was given a Snickers by one other employee
and then some oreos by a different employee who were
just trying to make his last day feel special. And
so people are now blasting Home Depot saying that they
(16:43):
didn't even do the bare minimum, and they need to
treat their employees with more respect. Now, let's just say
you were in this situation there at CBS Television in Philadelphia,
and all they did was say that you can go
home early, and then your coworkers gave you like a
Snickers and a pack of Oreos. Would you care?
Speaker 6 (17:03):
Not?
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Really the same thought. I'm like, God, who cares. I'm
so dumb at this place. I don't need a big Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I think people put a lot of put a lot
of stuff into you know what the expectation is and party.
I mean, I've already told them listen, I'm not really
big into parties. If it makes them happy, then that's fine.
But I don't need and I don't need any more stuff.
I've got more stuff in my life, like trinkets and stuff,
and I'm like, what am I gonna do with all
this crap? So no, I'd rather if they could let
(17:34):
me go a few hours earlier. I'd be like, Okay,
thank you very much.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
I felt the same way because people are like really
on home depot about this. I'm like, first of all,
like you're retiring from home depot, Like you didn't start
the company. You didn't like like you worked there. That's fine.
You had a good job you apparently enjoyed. You were
there for twenty seven years, or you stuck it out
for twenty seven years. Either way, like you've decided that
you're done and you're moving on.
Speaker 8 (17:58):
I mean, do you at least get a bucket?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
I don't. I don't. Yeah, yeah, so, Jim, I mean,
you know, for a guy not married, no kids, I'm
assuming you're alread kind of living in the house. Typically
people in that stage would maybe downsize. But you've spent
so much time with this house and doing all the remodeling.
Are you just going to stick stick where you are?
Are you going to relocate for retirement?
Speaker 2 (18:20):
What are you doing at this point? Not sure chances
are going to relocate after I want to enjoy the house.
I mean literally, I've been renovating this thing for seven years. Yeah. Right,
So it's a big stone house that just needs a
lot of work. But I don't need that much space.
Two bedroom too bad condos somewhere.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Yeah, still somewhere like in the northeaster. I think maybe
you'll do what to most people in the Northeast do
and just flock to Florida, Florida.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
I've actually looked at Florida, so I am poventually considering
Florida a certain area in Florida, so looking at it,
just not sure.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Yeah, well, Jim, we're again. We're super happy for you
and we appreciate you taking some time to talk with us. Again.
Just just just congratulate, listens, and.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Enjoy the last I appreciate it the.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Last handful of time. I mean, I fantasize about that day.
You know where the alarm clock doesn't.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Go to post it note? Ye, write it down on
a post it note and leave it up to the universe.
I believe that if you manifest things. I mean I've
every time that I've ever written something down on a
post it note and just stick it on my desk
in my office at home, I'm just like, Okay, I
need the universe to handle this and it gets taken
care of. I don't know whether I'm just naive and
it was going to happen anyway, but I mean it's
(19:30):
like if I think, if people just focus on the
positive and just keep moving forward and let the negative
stuff drop, good things happen, and I mean everyone leaves.
I've never seen an unhappy retired news anchor before. Guys.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
I mean my plan is, like you said, write it
down on a post it note, but I have I
have with this out there. I mean even even the
company that I work for knows this is Like I'm
willing to commit to this schedule like where you know
you're talking about like your alarm clock going off at
two o'clock in the morning. Same, right, I'm going to
commit to that until my kids get out of high school.
And right now, my daughter's in seventh grade, so do
the math, you know, and then after that, like uh,
(20:07):
you know, I'm forty nine now, so that that's that's
also good timing. But then uh, not that I wouldn't
want to do something because I think I met be
a little bored, you'd get. But I'm definitely not going
to be doing it at these hours. So that's my
that's want. That's my post that.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
You want to work to live, not live to work.
You want to work to put a roof over your head,
send your kids to school, clothes on the back, food
and the table of vacation in return.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, my thing is I just want the kids to go. Yeah,
I just want my I just want my kids to
go through uh through high school, get through high school,
living in the same house with the same friends like
I cause I didn't have that and so that that's
why it's important to me. But yeah, hey, if they
fire me tomorrow, kids are still going to finish out
high school where they're at right now and uh and
we'll figure it out. But Jim again, congratulations, we love

smaller scale, but I see swap meets just as big
as flea markets.
