Speaker 1: yesterday's show was hilarious. You heard it at the beginning there.
Speaker 1: I had a hard time, like just I was power
Speaker 1: laughing through a Reliant air conditioning commercial. And by the way,
Speaker 1: we'll get back into relying AC because they were at
Speaker 1: Skin's house like a swat team, almost like the plumbers
Speaker 1: that descended on Travis Frederick's you know.
Speaker 2: Room there was.
Speaker 1: He's just enjoying a nice, comfortable day in Wisconsin. Then
Speaker 1: he suddenly sent something in the forest, like are they
Speaker 1: talking about me?
Speaker 2: And that's the real reason he retired.
Speaker 1: So we've got a great show planned today and we're
Speaker 1: prepared to prove it to you. We need you to
Speaker 1: listen to the whole damn thing, then share it with
Speaker 1: all your friends, comment on social media, tell everybody to
Speaker 1: listen to the Ben and Skin Show. But man, last
Speaker 1: night I was watching and listening to another show and
Speaker 1: I ended up finishing it today, and that is cir
Speaker 1: De Soroy and our own Jeff skin Wade was was
Speaker 1: on last night and I thought it was one of
Speaker 1: the best conversations I've ever heard about DFW Radio. Everything
Speaker 1: from the Ticket to the Fan, to one O three
Speaker 1: three ESPN to Live one oh five three to the Freak,
Speaker 1: every single thing that's happened to us a long hour adventure,
Speaker 1: and I just the most fascinating thing to it is
Speaker 1: to me, was this and that you know you have
Speaker 1: been friends with and we've known those guys forever, but
Speaker 1: you've been very close friends with Danny. You guys are
Speaker 1: involved in the music business together. Super shady by the way, right,
Speaker 1: I agree those books. I don't know what's happening there,
Speaker 1: but it's not legal. It is not legal, but he was.
Speaker 1: He said he learned five new things last night, like
Speaker 1: he had. There was so much that he didn't know.
Speaker 1: And I was watching that as you were talking about
Speaker 1: the Ben and Skin radio adventure, all the things we've
Speaker 1: been on, you know, the adventure we've been on, and
Speaker 1: all the different radio stations we've been on. And obviously
Speaker 1: I've lived that, but you just assume people know about
Speaker 1: your journey, and even your close friends truly don't, especially
Speaker 1: when it's such a long journey. And so I just
Speaker 1: found that our journey is really dumb. Yeah, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like it is not normal by any
Speaker 1: stragedy imagination, and honestly, we shouldn't be here.
Speaker 4: Agreed, I have, We're on it. I'm not I'm not
Speaker 4: blowing smoke. We are here because of Ben. No, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 4: I'm hold on.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that.
Speaker 4: And you know, I'm a very confident person. I believe
Speaker 4: in myself, I believe in my abilities. But I can
Speaker 4: take a step back after all the time and look
Speaker 4: at and go, we would not be here if it
Speaker 4: wasn't for you and your personality and what you do.
Speaker 1: Well, I feel the exact same way about you. I
Speaker 1: don't think we would be here without you. We would
Speaker 1: be here with that. Gay, What are we doing we
Speaker 1: need Christina? I don't know that. Yeah, that's true. We're
Speaker 1: doing this for Prednant. Second episode of the night they
Speaker 1: banged with the new show. I loved hearing that, and
Speaker 1: I just want to advise people and direct people to it.
Speaker 1: If you've ever wondered about our radio business and how
Speaker 1: this all works and you want to hear about the
Speaker 1: inner workings, go check that. You should be listening to
Speaker 1: this podcast anyways. I mean, it's really good.
Speaker 2: I love what they're doing.
Speaker 1: What they're doing is so unique, and I just love
Speaker 1: those long form interviews where you can just go for
Speaker 1: an hour, yeah, and just really talk about whatever you
Speaker 1: want to talk about for that And it was just
Speaker 1: really really good. But man, I really enjoyed what you
Speaker 1: guys were saying. We've experienced. This is when we were
Speaker 1: on at the Ticket, we thought that was the whole world,
Speaker 1: that little bubble, And then when we went to Live
Speaker 1: on five to three and worked with Russ Martin over there,
Speaker 1: we were like, oh my god, there's so many people
Speaker 1: out here listening to this. Russ Martin Show that don't
Speaker 1: know anything about the ticket, and over the course of
Speaker 1: our adventure getting to go to ESPN and the Fan
Speaker 1: and all these different things that we've done, and then
Speaker 1: eventually over here at the Eagle. We always find listeners
Speaker 1: who are not familiar with anything we've done prior to this.
Speaker 1: And when we were on the Freak, it was really cool.
Speaker 1: I had so many people come up to me and go, man,
Speaker 1: I'd heard Mike Reiner's name, but I had never heard.
Speaker 2: Him before, So it's pretty good.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's so many things you take for granted, and
Speaker 4: I didn't have time to bring this up.
Speaker 2: I wanted to.
Speaker 1: I kept thinking about the fact that a big contributor
Speaker 1: to our show we celebrated his birthday a few days ago,
Speaker 1: is Steve Shackleford. Yes, he's a.
Speaker 4: Forty year old guy that grew up in DFW and
Speaker 4: I consider him to be very with it, Like he's smart,
Speaker 4: he's savvy, he's consumed a lot of culture, pop culture.
Speaker 4: His sister is as an Emmy award winning rider on
Speaker 4: a very celebrated show.
Speaker 2: Like he's with it.
Speaker 4: And we met him because he listened to us on
Speaker 4: the Fan and I remember talking to him and he
Speaker 4: was like, yeah, I just never really checked out the
Speaker 4: ticket and I'm like, here's a guy who's with it,
Speaker 4: and it just was a blind spot form that he
Speaker 4: didn't care about.
Speaker 5: Dude, I had no idea until I started working there.
Speaker 5: I was like, who are these guys? Why are there
Speaker 5: so many people here at these random remotes? I had
Speaker 5: no idea.
Speaker 1: But the people that are there that work there, and
Speaker 1: that's good. I'm not just dissing them or anything, but
Speaker 1: they think they're the only thing that exists.
Speaker 2: In the world.
Speaker 4: And success can afford you that sort of attitude to
Speaker 4: the world. But it wasn't till me and Ben left
Speaker 4: and I was like, man, why was I such a snob?
Speaker 4: I was a snob when I was at the Ticket.
Speaker 4: I remember Jeff Catlan asking me about ESPN. One of
Speaker 4: the best things Ben and I ever did was work
Speaker 4: at ESPN. How much fun did you have working with
Speaker 4: Freido and Randy Galloway? So much fun, so much fun.
Speaker 4: And I remember one time We're in Katlan's office and
Speaker 4: Katlin was like, well, what do you think about ESPN's
Speaker 4: I got Dude, I don't listen to that. He goes,
Speaker 4: how can you not listen to your competition. I go,
Speaker 4: they're not competition. I don't listen to that. I was
Speaker 4: so such an arrogant ass about it because that mentality
Speaker 4: over there breeded that. And then once I got out
Speaker 4: of there, I was able to see the world in
Speaker 4: a different way.
Speaker 1: But I know there's a lot of people listening to
Speaker 1: this that are big Russ Martin fans, because obviously he
Speaker 1: held it down. He's an icon in DFW media. And
Speaker 1: you got into some of the stuff when we went
Speaker 1: to Live one O five to three. We thought we
Speaker 1: were going to work with Russ over there for a
Speaker 1: long time, and they ended up flipping that format to
Speaker 1: sports and they put him on the beach and they
Speaker 1: paid him to sit out for a year, and I
Speaker 1: think they he was making over a million dollars a year,
Speaker 1: I think. And you know, that was just a crazy time,
Speaker 1: Like we were literally scared that day. Yeah, some of
Speaker 1: the conversations that happened. You mentioned when we went out
Speaker 1: and talked to the program director out by the highway
Speaker 1: like it was the Sopranos, and uh, I just thought
Speaker 1: it was a great conversation, and uh so, yeah, you
Speaker 1: should go check that out. You should be subscribed to
Speaker 1: Circu de sroy it. But it was a really, really
Speaker 1: awesome conversation. I thought, did you enjoy it? I loved it.
Speaker 1: It was so much for their phone. Guys, all right,
Speaker 1: let's do this.
Speaker 4: Coming up next for the second day in a row, Ben,
Speaker 4: we discuss another musical icon has passed away.
