I think people in regular radio wanted to stop that merger.

They were terrified of it.

So I think they pushed that story hoping that it would fucking tank the merger, which of course it did not.

You remember those days when you first went over there?

I'll tell you one thing about Sirius.

Even though I didn't like the way my time there ended, I wish that was handled a little bit better.

But I guess everybody who leaves a gig wishes things were handled differently.

They never once fucked with me about content.

I'll say that for them.

They never came for me and goes, hey, man, that thing you talked about, could you not?

Could you back off?

Even long into where everybody was getting canceled and in trouble, Sirius never came and asked me not to say something.

Jim McClure, who ran the channel, never broke my balls about jokes we did or a stance we would take.

They kind of let that go.

It was.

Yeah.

I get it.

It was serious, and we were at XM, and he was at Sirius, and that was the giant get was Howard going over.

Yeah, I sold my serious stock.

So whatever happens I Did I was happy it spiked up to like seven and I fucking dumped were you allowed to sell while you were working there?
