They're already priming me for this opportunity at the station.
Now I know how to audio edit and do everything I need to do to actually become like a radio personality.
And that became kind of,
But they weren't paying me any money.
And I was the youngest of four siblings.
All my siblings were in med school.
And there was a certain point where I was like a failure, black sheep, you know, college dropout, not even making any money.
I was making my money at night hosting showcases and parties with the DJs.
And so my parents thought I was just like this wild party child.
And not happy with me at all.
And I was like, OK, I got to get like a paying job.
And so the producer role opened up.
The producer that worked on the show was was a little bit of a, you know, underachiever.
He got fired and I was already doing his job.
And I remember them telling me that they're hiring another producer.
So I wrote this fancy email, why I deserve the job.
I was already doing the job.
I was like 22 years old or whatever I was.
And they basically fired me after I asked to get that job.
They actually wanted me to train somebody else who was in another department, a guy who was like two years older than me to train him how to be the producer because they had already fired the other guy.
