Speaker 1: Well, I saw that Emerald City was doing this charity
Speaker 1: event that I was at, and then they were doing
Speaker 1: the MAVs gala that SKIN was at the next night.
Speaker 1: I asked the dude. I was like, Hey, are you
Speaker 1: guys doing that event tomorrow? He's like, no, there's like
Speaker 1: eleven of us. Now there's like eleven bands all these
Speaker 1: Emerald Cities. It's a massive corporation.
Speaker 2: Now. It's amazing.
Speaker 4: Thank you for representing the show. Hopefully you can bring
Speaker 4: home a w and hopefully that you win the Silver
Speaker 4: Award of Excellence. That'd be great because they give that
Speaker 4: one out. Apparently a lot of our old bosses of one.
Speaker 4: That looks like great, there we go. Good job guys
Speaker 4: and I saw that. Now I perked up and I
Speaker 4: was like, what.
Speaker 1: It's a big deal for advertising in that world. So
Speaker 1: we're super honored to be nominated. And I did see
Speaker 1: the thing where Kelly Raspberry was nominated, and then the
Speaker 1: rest of the Categorcratics show was as well. It's because
Speaker 1: she actually a couple of years ago bought the award
Speaker 1: show and so it's like it was like when Trump
Speaker 1: bought the American Beauty pageant. Kelly bought the American Women
Speaker 1: and did uh and you one?
Speaker 2: Was it a e of the Year. It was Television
Speaker 2: account Executive of the Year. As I don't know what year.
Speaker 2: I think it was like two thousand and four. Maybe
Speaker 2: I was gonna guess five because I thought you were
Speaker 2: down in four.
Speaker 3: Five.
Speaker 1: I thought you came back, but I could tell you
Speaker 1: like it was that's when you got the standard insurance
Speaker 1: account back.
Speaker 2: It was the proudest moment.
Speaker 1: It was the proudest moment of my sales career, Like seriously,
Speaker 1: like it was such a huge honor.
Speaker 2: I loved it. It's a big deal.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know I got I got thrown out of
Speaker 1: that standard insurance office one time.
Speaker 2: Really, yeah, is it because you were making claims that.
Speaker 1: They will, so those if you see they're they're not
Speaker 1: an advertiser for us here, but they are the nicest
Speaker 1: family ever. And Cherry Frasier and it was her dad
Speaker 1: used to run the company and he was such an
Speaker 1: impressive dude. And of course you see Chad Young now
Speaker 1: running it in those commercials. But they are truly the
Speaker 1: nicest people ever. And so it was a big deal
Speaker 1: for me to graduate and get that account at some point,
Speaker 1: so I'm handling the standard insurance account and they were
Speaker 1: doing a lot of advertising with us, and we went
Speaker 1: through a phase where my boss was like, I can't
Speaker 1: go on this call with you. You need to go on
Speaker 1: this call by yourself. But it's the there's a problem
Speaker 1: with it. They're really angry right now. And I was like, wait,
Speaker 1: what I'm going. I was a brand new I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm going by myself and he's like, yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: can't make it. And so I went out there and
Speaker 1: it turned out that we had made some promises to
Speaker 1: them before I was involved and didn't uphold those promises
Speaker 1: because that's what you always said. I like to over
Speaker 1: promise and under deliver. So they sent me out there
Speaker 1: without a solution to a problem that I didn't create
Speaker 1: or know about. And they're the nicest people ever. And
Speaker 1: they were like, yeah, so what how are you going
Speaker 1: to fix the situation? I was like, what, like, totally
Speaker 1: set me up to fail, and he goes, I'm going
Speaker 1: to make more promises. He goes, I got to ask
Speaker 1: you to leave my office right now. I was like really,
Speaker 1: He's like, yes, sir, you need to leave. And so
Speaker 1: I got kicked out and the jingle played when he
Speaker 1: walked down. But over the years got to be super
Speaker 1: close to them and love them to the data account back,
Speaker 1: got the account back, and they ended up really helping
Speaker 1: my career and we did a bunch of business together.
Speaker 2: They're phenomenal people. It's badass. Yeah, well, hope we get
Speaker 2: to win.
Speaker 4: And I would like to get the text if we
Speaker 4: I mean no, if we do, and make sure camera's
Speaker 4: not on you. If they do, give it to Kelly
Speaker 4: Raspberry and then you respond, you know he just did
Speaker 4: he mouth Puck.
Speaker 2: That f No.
Speaker 1: The Musers are nominated too, right, they are, okay, but
Speaker 1: they don't have a chance because there's no women on
Speaker 1: their show. Okay, yeah, we've got Christina, so we're good
Speaker 1: and Kevin.
Speaker 4: I was also kind of like, so what, you still
Speaker 4: get nominated even after reducing your hours of work.
Speaker 2: That is a victory.
Speaker 1: Kevin taking shots one of the greatest radio shows in
Speaker 1: the history of DFW. It is weird that the minute
Speaker 1: they didn't like you, the minute they posted about it,
Speaker 1: that they showed a freak logo.
Speaker 2: I was like, why kids log right?
Speaker 1: You know what, though, I think that's an indication that
Speaker 1: it's for that year's work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe we got this through May of last year.
Speaker 1: You're doing this for a year though, No, this was
Speaker 1: the lad We got this for the last couple of
Speaker 1: months of the first Okay.
Speaker 2: TikTok might be going away, but it also might be staying.
Speaker 2: The new deadline.
Speaker 4: We talked about this, it feels like a month ago,
Speaker 4: and then Trump's like, okay, we'll push it back, and
Speaker 4: now Saturday is the next deadline April fifth, and Amazon
Speaker 4: made a bid to jump in and buy it, but
Speaker 4: didn't seal the deal today. So here we are on Wednesday,
Speaker 4: going I don't know if TikTok's going away or not.
Speaker 4: I imagine Trump's gonna save it again and push it
Speaker 4: back another thirty days. Let's just put tariffs on it.
Speaker 4: That did happen today. A lot of tariffs were announced
Speaker 4: today at three o'clock. I don't really fully know what
Speaker 4: it all means, though, and I'll wait for people who
Speaker 4: do know about that, because I'm going to track in
Speaker 4: stories with the otter that got loose at the zoo
Speaker 4: and you know, stuff like that.
Speaker 2: Well, what's up with the otter?
Speaker 4: Did this order? It escaped from a zoo, but its
Speaker 4: friend is still on the loose. They found one of them.
Speaker 4: It's in Green Bay, so it's not that big of
Speaker 4: a deal. Now it's a huge deal. Otter friends escaped
Speaker 4: from the zoo. Aphelia's returned, but Louis is still on
Speaker 4: the loose.
Speaker 2: They didn't find the otter one. Ah, that's incredible.
Speaker 1: You're gonna win an award tomorrow night, Dude, shut it down.
Speaker 2: Give the guy the award. God, that was great work.
Speaker 2: Good job Ben.
