The Morning Breeze on Demand. Yeah, Phil Collins six or six here in
the Morning Breeze, Jack Colby andCarolyn McCardell. You know what, I
had so much fun yesterday Carolyn watchingthat Warriors game. Oh man, what
a game. It was crazy.You know, the Kings were leading in
halftime and the Warriors in the secondhalf. It came back to beat the

(00:22):
Kings one twenty to one hundred.I would like, which in the NBA
would be considered a blowout. Iwould love to have been a fly on
the wall in the locker room athalftime and to hear what Steve Kerr would
have said to the team to getthem fired up, especially Steph Curry.
I was thinking the same thing.I mean, Steph breaking a record,

(00:43):
right, that was awesome. Noone's ever scored fifty points in a playoff
game seven history. It was acareer highlight for stuff with fifty points.
That was incredible. And yeah,the conversation at halftime in the locker room,
I can't even imagine. He wasmaking the impossible shots. He's unbelievable,
unbelievable. I remember there was oneshot that he made. He made

(01:07):
the shot as he was falling.That's Steph Curry, right, Yes,
it's Steph Curry. I also lovedthere were like two thousand Warriors fans at
Thrive City right downtown at Chase Centerhere, which I thought was so fun.
Just the energy in the city afterwardswas amazing, wonderful, just great

(01:29):

two against bum bum bum I knowthe Lakers. Yeah, bron James and

(06:25):
at this major announcement on the MorningBreeze that we are about to do as
a brighter side, one way oranother, and I certainly hope it lives
up to all the hype. AndI have to tell you I've got a
case of the cotton mouth right now. I'm a little nervous, but I
have to say that this will bemy last week here on the Morning Breeze.

(06:45):
It's so weird to hear you sayit, very strange to hear myself
say it. And just a briefexplanation. It was about, I guess
late last fall that Kim and Iwe decided to crunch the number. And
my contract expires on Monday this comingMonday, and we thought, well,
this is going to be. Ifit's going to happen, this is a

(07:08):
good time. And I presented itto management and they were most gracious.
And again I need to emphasize thatthis was a decision made completely by me
and my wife. I'm very mixedabout this. I love where I work,
I love who I'm working with,and I love our product here on

(07:31):
the Breeze. So this was avery difficult decision. But again, this
will be my last week here onthe Morning Breeze. So it gives me,
you know, five more days orfour and a half. I can
steal plenty of office supplies in thatamount of time, and he will.
And you know what, Jack,because I'm a good co host and co
worker, I'll help. I'll helpyou writ this place off on your way

(07:56):
out. Now. I can't thankthe I can't thank you enough. Oh,
you're welcome, and the audience andmy boss Rick Feeley are and it's
just been an amazing experience over thelast seven years. And again the audience
has been so kind to not justme, but all of us here on
the breeze. So it's going tobe close to time to say my goodbyes.

(08:18):
Yeah, but it's well deserved andyou know, yeah, absolutely,
And in the world of radio,for those of you that don't know,
being able to announce your retirement andleave on your own terms, like anything
in the entertainment industry, that meansyou've done something very right in your career
and you are so well respected inthis industry. Jack, you have been

(08:41):
working in San Francisco radio for howmany years now, close to forty?
I mean, come on, youdeserve this. And again, the decision
purely based on it's time for meto stop waking up at three thirty in
the morning. If anyone, anyonewho's listening now knows what that is like
to be doing a year after yearfor me as close to twenty five years.

(09:03):
Yeah, and I just people,it's funny people ask me, so,
hey, you can sleep till noonnow, no, I don't want
to sleep till noon. No,you'm like to sleep till six. I'm
just gonna say you're going to sleepinto maybe six, six fifteen, that's
right. So that's that's what mydecision was purely based on, well,
we are going to miss you,but we also say congratulation, thank you,

(09:24):
and again it's well deserved. Soproud of you to be able to
make this decision on your own andgo live your best life and spend time
with your wife and not wake upat three in the morning exactly exactly.
But I will remain a fan ofthe Breeze. We count on you listening
after you're gone, Jack, Maybenot the first day, but every day
after that. It's a deal.We're at eight seven to seven nine eight
