Buck Sexton

You know how often there is a disconnect between sometimes media persona and real life.

I think that's very hard to pull off on radio.

And so ultimately, you have to decide, are these people that I want to hang out with?

And radio is unique.

We talked about this some.

You take us wherever you go, right?

You're in your car on the way to drop the kids off at school.

you're running an errand on your lunch break you are turning us on maybe in your office for a break uh some people are starting off their day on the west coast and they're taking the radio with them while they're getting ready brushing their teeth taking a shower um so we are sort of in that live vein company uh buck has talked about it i think it's a it's a really good example

You know, people, when you meet radio listeners in real life, they want to give you a hug because they feel like you're a part of their family.

And we are such a strong part of their day.

So I think people there's a void, unfortunately, in media, I think, for both smart and fun.

And I think we serve that niche very, very well.

And I'm thankful that Julie Talbot is.

gave us this opportunity.

And, you know, Buck's not a sports guy, but I always think, you know, you never want to be the guy who takes over after Nick Saban or Bill Belichick or whoever the greatest coach of all time is, because usually they fail.

We're quite a bit different than Rush in that there's two of us, but I'm honored that the audience has stuck with us.

And in many ways, we've actually grown.

If you look at the podcast, you look at video, you

and the expansive nature under which people consume the show now.

We're younger, and so I think we've been more dynamic in terms of reaching out to the audience where they are beyond the AM and FM dial.
