so excited.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
I'm just honestly, I'm really looking forward to being in
people's living rooms every single evening. You know, I've done
it for Idle, I've done it for The Morning Show
with Kelly Rippa, but never really like this, and it's
a it's a it's a cool thing. So I'm very
excited about it.

you know it's not your fault. I work somewhere else.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
You should be penalized. I'm here.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Here's the here's the top of the show from last night.
Thank you for the very warm welcome. Hosting Wheel of
Fortune is a dream job. I've been a fan of
this show since I was a kid watching it in
Atlanta with my family, and I know how special it
is that Wheel has been in your living rooms for
the past forty years, and I'm just so grateful to

(01:33):
be invited in.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
I also know I've.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Got some very big shoes to film.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
So let's play Wheel of Fortune. I mean, it's so
well said.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Back and forth with what to say, it was. It's
one of the things where I couldn't decide what to
say till I walked out there really no.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
We watched last night and that was the perfect thing
to say.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
It's one of those situations where you know, and you've
got to give a toast, or when you've got to
speak at something and you're just not quite sure what
to say, and then finally it just happens and it
comes to you. That's the only way to deal with it.
But I have to say I was concerned about what
to say at the beginning, right because you want to
you want to walk, but you also don't want to
talk too much about that.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
It was the perfect length.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yeah, sometimes it can it can go long and you
don't want that.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
You don't want the awkward pause and nobody. Everybody just
wants to play the game. You want to set your
first episode. That's you know, there's epic.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
There's the presidential debate tonight, so I don't know when
it airs, it may or before or after somewhere, but.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
It's getting booted because of the president. To be wheel
of force and check it out. Please please, please,
