00:02:15 - 00:03:00 | Speaker 4:

I want to ask if people have an assumption about you because of your job, because here in radio, I feel like there's definitely one. I went out to meet with one of the bosses at my girlfriend, Meg's company. And the next morning he told her, Hey, your boyfriend was pretty cool. You know, I just assumed you were dating a douchebag. And she said, why? And he said, because he was a radio DJ. And this is not the first time someone has said this to her. Like they were surprised that I was actually a nice human being. And I thought we must just have the worst reputations as like people just think radio people are the biggest douchey. And I know I've listened to some pretty douchey guys on the radio, but they just think we're going to be horrible, I guess, when we walk in the room.

00:03:00 - 00:03:03 | Speaker 6:

Like, how did they expect you to act? Like, what did they expect you to do?

00:03:03 - 00:03:13 | Speaker 4:

I don't know. They just thought I would – I don't know if it's the cheesy, corny factor because, you know, like when you hear radio, sometimes there's those people that sound really fake and they're telling great stories. Everybody –

00:03:13 - 00:03:15 | Speaker 3:

Or did they think that you'd be arrogant? Well, that's it.

00:03:15 - 00:03:37 | Speaker 4:

And then I'm thinking behind the scenes. We've had some big egos work here in the past who would walk around like, don't you know who I am? And kind of act douchey in that way. And then there's also the guys that always hit on every girl and, like, use the job to try and get dates on the request line. And so I don't know what angle it was they thought they were going to meet, but they were really surprised that I actually wasn't an annoying douchebag.

00:03:37 - 00:03:54 | Speaker 6:

I just read the other day that there are more women truck drivers than have ever been in the profession forever. And they were talking about how that's become a huge deal, you know, because they were running short on truck drivers. So a lot of women decided, you know what, I can drive. I'm going to drive truck.

00:03:55 - 00:04:17 | Speaker 4:

And, you know, there's a certain everybody's truck driver. They think rough and gruff. But, you know, there's probably there's probably truck drivers driving with their little toy poodle in the passenger seat and they like to tap dance on weekends. What's wrong with toy poodles? Nothing. I'm just saying, like, there's assumptions people have because of their job. Yeah. And I don't know. For us, it's just a bad reputation, I think, of radio DJs.

00:04:17 - 00:04:33 | Speaker 3:

Well, people also assume that we get tickets to stuff for free. and they're so surprised when we find out we buy our own tickets for the majority of concerts and also that we will like come and DJ a wedding and stuff I always have people ask me I'm like oh I wish I was that cool but I don't know how to do that at all

00:04:33 - 00:04:37 | Speaker 4:

I have people that think we're lying when we tell them I can't give them free tickets I'm like we don't get free tickets

00:04:37 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 6:

I often think that probably people like police officers get judged all the time because of the image that is portrayed sometimes of police officers like we had a couple of cop friends of ours that were like yeah over the last you know a few months you know a few months or years you know is always bad but there's like an image that was there and then there was also

00:05:00 - 00:05:18 | Speaker 2:

A guy that I went to school with that became a high school teacher, and he might have been the dumbest guy I've ever had. And all I kept thinking to myself was, how did he become a—he's teaching the youth of America right now? That would be something. I always think that every teacher has to be smart, right? What's up, John?

00:05:19 - 00:05:20 | Unknown:

Hey, Moncho.

00:05:20 - 00:05:26 | Speaker 2:

What's going on? We're talking about how everybody thinks that radio people are a bunch of douchebags.

00:05:27 - 00:05:29 | Speaker 4:

Oh, no. What did he say? I don't know.

00:05:30 - 00:05:30 | Speaker 2:

Oh, he got disconnected.

00:05:31 - 00:05:35 | Speaker 3:

Did he try and make a joke and curse him? I don't know. I really didn't hear what he said. I didn't hear. Didn't, fell flat, whatever.

00:05:35 - 00:05:40 | Speaker 2:

No, I think, honestly, it just got, that sounded like he didn't hang up. It sounded like a bad phone line. Yeah. John, call us back.

00:05:41 - 00:05:43 | Speaker 3:

Well, that's true. That's not an assumption. We do have horrible phone lines.

00:05:43 - 00:05:52 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. So when you, so when you sat down with him, did you try to be like really on your best behavior so you did not come across like you?

00:05:52 - 00:05:54 | Speaker 3:

Well, I was just myself. Were you? Yeah.

00:05:54 - 00:05:59 | Speaker 2:

Because honestly, I would have, I would have acted like even more, you know, I wouldn't have even joked.

00:05:59 - 00:06:08 | Speaker 3:

meg wouldn't bring me around our co-workers if she knew that i was you know because she knows who i am so if she's gonna be embarrassed she just shouldn't invite me but mojo's right have you

00:06:08 - 00:06:14 | Speaker 1:

ever tried to be like super anti-radio and just very serious like hello sir how are you it is a

00:06:14 - 00:06:29 | Speaker 3:

pleasure to meet you today i'm very smart on this show nobody's guilty of having that fake persona you know like we're all just we're just ourselves like what you hear is what you get there are some people we meet and we're just like how are you doing hey everybody and you're like what how do

00:06:29 - 00:06:33 | Speaker 2:

you keep that up do you do that when you're in the grocery store i think radio's gotten away from

00:06:33 - 00:06:38 | Speaker 3:

that too i do still some guys on the other stations really yeah maybe maybe the the oldies

00:06:38 - 00:06:49 | Speaker 2:

type stations because i most of the people that i've met in radio are actually kind of pleasant like actually i i'm like wow they're they're really nice uh nice people i had a guy that

00:06:49 - 00:06:58 | Speaker 3:

did work at my house recently and he's like oh i did work it for arthur p and i was like oh baby And he goes, yeah, he does that exactly all the time. And I'm like, really?

00:06:58 - 00:07:15 | Speaker 2:

He talks like that? His generation, though, that was a big rock guy here in town. That generation was really like that. Can you imagine it being exhausting? John's back, the guy that we thought, you know. You got disconnected, John? Yes, I did. John, what's going on, buddy?

00:07:16 - 00:07:23 | Speaker 5:

I am an inspector for factories, and I go in different factories all the time. And people think I'm so arrogant because I walk in there and tell them whether cars are good or bad.

00:07:24 - 00:07:32 | Speaker 3:

Oh, so your job is to kind of, they expect you to be tough on them. Yeah. And are they surprised? You're like a nice guy?

00:07:33 - 00:07:34 | Speaker 5:

Yeah, they are most of the time.

00:07:35 - 00:07:57 | Speaker 2:

That's wild. Yeah, that's interesting. You know who I always would assume would be kind of like a-holes? The health inspectors that go to restaurants and things and do their health inspections. Because my friends who are in the restaurant business say that the health inspectors are always brutal. Like, they look for stuff that's not really even that bad. What? I disagree.

00:07:58 - 00:08:00 | Speaker 1:

Those are people making sure that we don't get sick.

00:08:01 - 00:08:02 | Speaker 2:

Well, you talk to restaurant people.

00:08:03 - 00:08:08 | Speaker 1:

Yeah, because they don't follow the rules. If you're mad at the house inspector, clean up your place.

00:08:08 - 00:08:39 | Speaker 2:

You know, sometimes they get a little carried. I don't know. I'm just saying I would assume that those guys would be like that. Listen, I'm going to say this to you, that I think that there are some times where you go to, you know, to businesses and you're like, oh, this person's supposed to be really nice to me. Like the secretary of state or the DMV or whatever they call it in other places. But our secretaries, you walk in there and those people all seem angry as hell. They all seem like they, you know, that you have to be an angry person in order to work there.

00:08:40 - 00:08:48 | Speaker 4:

Or have you ever met somebody who's really rough around the edges and you ask them what they do for a living and they're like, I'm a kindergarten teacher. Yeah, right. It just doesn't go in my head.

00:08:48 - 00:09:01 | Speaker 2:

A yoga instructor. I'm a yoga instructor. You might need a little zen yoga in your life if you're like that. But, no, I think that that's the thing. And the other thing, too, is you might catch people on a bad day.

00:09:02 - 00:09:06 | Speaker 4:

Absolutely. We all have bad days. We could be hangry.

00:09:07 - 00:09:11 | Speaker 2:

Some of us might have worse than bad days. We might have bad years. What's going on, Sean?

00:09:12 - 00:09:18 | Speaker 5:

Hi, this is Sean from Delita. How you guys doing? Good. What do you do for a living? I'm a strip club manager.

00:09:18 - 00:09:20 | Speaker 4:

So what do people assume about you?

00:09:20 - 00:09:26 | Speaker 3:

Do they all think you sleep with all the dancers? Sleep with all the dancers, some all drugs, it's all bad.

00:09:26 - 00:09:28 | Speaker 4:

Yeah, do you do any of the above?

00:09:28 - 00:09:30 | Speaker 5:

No, no I don't. Wow.

00:09:31 - 00:09:32 | Speaker 3:

You got a guy that can get his drugs?

00:09:35 - 00:09:46 | Speaker 2:

But I would just assume also too that if you're a strip club manager that you probably, you know, I don't know, take a little side money. Do you take a little side money or do any of that stuff?

00:09:46 - 00:09:48 | Speaker 5:

No, tips are always appreciated, though. Yeah.

00:09:48 - 00:09:54 | Speaker 2:

Okay. Do you go into your kid's school, and when they ask you what you do for a living, do you say I'm a strip club manager?

00:09:55 - 00:09:56 | Speaker 5:

I don't have any kids.

00:09:56 - 00:10:06 | Speaker 2:

Oh, okay. All right. How about picking a... somebody on you know hinge or or bumble oh that's that's that's a headache and a half man dating

00:10:06 - 00:10:13 | Speaker 4:

outside this industry is rough so do you date the dancers no not really oh what are you dating then

00:10:13 - 00:10:17 | Speaker 5:

would it be recommended to date the dancers no no not if you want to be employed

00:10:17 - 00:10:26 | Speaker 2:

yeah spike brought up who do you date um whoever i can find the profession really yeah yeah that'd

00:10:26 - 00:10:31 | Speaker 5:

be tough. Let me ask you, who's got a better reputation, radio DJs or strip club managers?

00:10:33 - 00:10:36 | Speaker 2:

I'd say probably radio DJs. Yeah.

00:10:36 - 00:10:58 | Speaker 5:

I don't know about that. Down there together in the same place. Right. Somebody just said, I'm a garbage truck driver and everybody thinks we're dumb, but the guy said I was one of the tops in my class. I would think you're not, because you probably make a lot of money. Yeah, they do. They're probably paying some bucks to you guys. Hey, it's Bubba Wallace from 2311 Racing.
