You know, and so people crying on the air, people making us cry.

um so the it's very emotional it's very draining uh part of me wishes it could start at 7 a.m but i don't want to disrupt molly at all we want to do it at the start of a show instead of in the middle of one because i always wake up at like 6 a.m before it because i have so much nervous energy going into it so i remember last year by the time i got back to my mom's house to to crash in the middle of the day i'd been up for like 31 hours by the time i got to her house and i was like oh my god

I'm just like spinning.

But yeah, the adrenaline really carries me through that part of it.

So it's not so bad.

And, you know, it's certainly not anything in comparison to what has happened.

And, you know, you mentioned three straight, you know, and again, four overall, but three straight for cancer research.

One of the things that I'm really like looking forward to for this one and really proud of is that like,

We're going to... There's a lot of people that are returning and who will be able to update us with their stories.

But then also, sadly, there are obviously people who have passed since the last Radiothon.

And we are going to be able to do a...

kind of like how the Oscars does the In Memoriam.

Like, you know what I mean?

We're going to, Tani and I are working together on putting some things together to kind of honor the people who have been a part of these past Radiothons who are no longer with us.

So it's like a way to kind of keep them alive.

You know, Diane Pathew, her husband, Nick, was on the first Radiothon they were on together.

He had passed away before the second Radiothon.

Her first public appearance was last year's Radiothon.

She's pledged to be back on this year, so we'll honor him.

We'll honor Rhino.
