Oh, 1998, 1999. Okay, deep. All right, cool. Before. I was on her show.
Where are you today, man? Where are you? I'm at home in Philly. Relaxing, man. Just finished up homeschool with my youngest, so just relaxing today, thank God.
First of all, there is no hangover. We are still very high. We are high. We are so high, we climb greased poles without a problem, man. Like, this has been just the most wonderful year in football since the last time we won the Super Bowl. So, yeah, man, I'm having a ball. Most of my friends are having a ball. And I'm really sticking it to all my friends who are Cowboys fans.
What is it? We're a gritty city. I don't think people understand. First of all, we're the birthplace of America. We don't get any credit for it. We are always, you know, in the shadow of New York City. The other part of that is. All of us, black, white, brown, yellow, we've all had to fight for every inch of what we have. And so we want our respect and we demand our respect.
And if you're cool, we're cool. But if you come with it, we're going to end you. And I just think that that's what makes us so resilient, man. Like you guys, you know, people have different things outside of like hot dogs and things of that nature. We chop up steaks and put it on a bun. Fair. That's fair. We have a jail in Veterans Stadium.
Did you notice we have a jail at the bottom of Veterans Stadium? We're the first sports complex to have a jail and a courtroom in the stadium.
I mean, it was. I think Lincoln Financial Field just takes them off now. But in the days of the vet, when I was a little kid, there was a jail and a court right there.
in the stadium was that designed to get them back in the stands to just adjudicate them quickly give you a ticket and then get you back out there was such a backlog in the jail every time there was a sporting event because we'd be fighting you you mix philadelphia grit with a whole lot of beer Yeah, bro.
Well, my mom was a teacher. My dad was a cop. So very, you know, basic home life, but everybody in my family, my mom's family, they were really big on education, really big on reading. And you were allowed to have an opinion. You just had to back it up with a whole lot of research.
So if you had a difference of opinion, you better be ready to back it up at the dinner table with charts and PDFs and the whole nine. And that was a big thing. The other thing that, you know, when I came up, my brother and I, you can start whatever you wanted to, but you either finished it Or you quit. And if you quit, you couldn't pick it back up. So I learned seven instruments. I sang.
My brother was a three sport athlete. You know, I was doing radio at nine, TV at 15. You know, so there was this mindset of you finish what you start and you become the best at it or you don't bother doing it at all because your last name meant something in my house. And to this day, that's how I am with my kids. Anderson's don't give up. Anderson, what do you mean you can't do this?
Figure it out.
I was on radio at nine, TV at 15. What are you doing on the radio at nine? Everybody says that, but nobody bats an eye about the Olsen twins having the number one show as infants.
um i was doing a show called get held they didn't have to do anything hosting a radio show you gotta actually kind of bring it i mean as a nine-year-old you're hosting a radio show yeah i was i was co-hosting with an adult thank god and i was having the time of my life we were playing you know music that was kid-centered we were talking about things that kids go through like kids have problems and everybody ignores kids until they grow up or they get into trouble before they grow up
The premise of the show was to give kids a place to feel safe, a safe space before that was a thing, and to also give them guidance and show them that life does not have to start when you're 18. There are things you can do now. So we encourage kids to foster their talents, to be creative, to show up and show out and be who they are in an expressive way.
And it was a phenomenal breeding ground for me, man. But yeah, from the time I was nine to the time I was 17, I did that show. And it was one of the greatest experiences in my life.
I would say at this particular point, and in radio, you jump up and down the dial. You're a nomad. And I started to get into programming while still being on the air. And then I got approached to produce very young, about 22, I produced my first show in Philadelphia. It was a major market morning show.
And then I wound up going to the competition and producing Wendy Williams when she came down from New York. um so i was about 22 then but full-time going behind the scenes um what year were you with wendy williams oh 1998 1999. Okay. Deep. All right. Cool.
Yeah. So at that point I moved into Austin. I was programming in Austin and I got approached by DJ Clues people to help syndicate Desert Storm Radio. And that was like my first huge syndicated show. And then from there I wound up putting Ricky Smiley in the syndication two years later in Dallas. And after that, I became the first director of social media for Broadcast Corporation.
And then I retired.
