After Hours with Amy Lawrence PODCAST: Hour 1

The wait is over.

That's right. Season 5 of The Kardashians is here. Just when you thought life couldn't get any faster, they're punching it into overdrive. Chris, Kourtney, Kim, Khloé, Kendall and Kylie are back and continue to defy expectations in all their endeavors. So, get ready to go behind the glitz and glamour of the most iconic family on television.

The all-new season of The Kardashians premieres May 23rd streaming on Hulu. Okay, picture this. It's Friday afternoon when a thought hits you. I can waste another weekend doing the same old whatever or I can conquer it. I can hop into my all-new Hyundai Santa Fe and hit the road. Any road.

The steeper the better. Because my all-new Santa Fe is available with H-TRAC all-wheel drive so I can hit the trail without a worry in the world. Heck, with three rows and best-in-class rear cargo space, I can pack the whole family in with all our gear.

We've got available dual wireless charging for our phones so we'll never lose touch with civilization and we won't lose touch with the primordial power of Mother Earth. So which is it? Waste the weekend or do something a little more epic? And conquer it in the all-new Hyundai Santa Fe. Visit HyundaiUSA.com or call 562-314-4603 for more details.

Hyundai. There's joy in every journey. It's the Hump Show and we're finally into the conference finals in Hoops and Hockey. I know it's been a long time coming. It feels like forever since we tipped off the playoffs.

And yet I know it's gone quickly in real life terms. Maybe not in sports terms. But here we are down to the final four in each sport. And only six total series remaining.

How about that? Until we have two more champions. I was describing to my husband how these next few weeks go and the fact that, gosh, even more than usual, more than it's been, we're definitely not on the same schedule because the games become fewer but the stakes become higher. There's an increased tension. Every second counts. And I'm hoping we have fewer blowouts on the basketball side as well. I know we've had some that are kind of not playoff worthy in my opinion. And over the course of a seven game series, sure you're going to have a bunch of momentum swings. But at the start of Celtics pacers was any indication we are in for a treat. And I'm hoping it'll be the same when we see Mavs and Timberwolves. First time they've met in the playoffs in 20 plus years. So we've got some great battles both individually and team on paper. But how will they play out once they hit the court and the ice of course Rangers and Panthers being one that many of you are looking forward to. If you haven't yet taken our conference finals poll, it's right now pinned to the top of our show Twitter at Amy after hours or you can find my Twitter a law radio.

It was the most recent thing that I retweeted. And yeah Mavs, Timberwolves getting better than 43% of the vote. But there's still time. Three hours to go.

Love to hear from you. Which is the best of these final four playoff series? Which one has the most buzz? Too bad you can't change your vote if you did not choose Pacers or Celtics and now you think, man sign me up for seven of these. Well six more after Tuesday night. It's after hours with Amy Lawrence. It is our hump show. Middle show of the work week. Which means you get to ask Amy anything. And I'm always tickled when I realize each week as questions are posted and people reply to that opportunity on both Twitter and Facebook.

So I just gave you our Twitter, Facebook, easy, named after the show. Every week people reply to those posts where we solicit your questions. And it's like they've never heard of this before. Which is terrific. So we do get some of the same questions regurgitated from new people who don't realize that those are fairly standard queries. But we also get people who've never heard it before and think they really enjoy this segment.

Which is good. It's our longest running feature on the show. It predates QB News. It predates me coming to the five night a week time slot actually. It goes back to when I was working the weekend shows and hosting three nights a week. So I love it. Even though sometimes the questions produce uncomfortable answers. I do love it. I love that you all get so into it. And while we did try to change the location, if you will, the location on the run down of our typical Ask Amy segment every week during the hump show, we thought about moving into the first hour or the fourth hour.

Nah. It found itself right back at home. Dead center of the work week. And so that's our third hour. You've got some time now to send your questions.

Unique questions. Maybe we'll do an early summer version of Ask Amy Anything on YouTube. I know that we like to drop those in the video version of Ask Amy Anything. Not sure that'll be our next YouTube video. Jay and I were, well we're conjuring up some ideas. I was thinking about, well first of all we owe you the 2024 Chubby Bunny World Championship. It may just be me and Jay because I'm not sure who else we can rope into it right now.

The newsroom seems to get emptier and emptier. I'll challenge you. You'll challenge me? Who else works at a time where we can actually get people here? Billy won't do it again.

He has a very active gag reflex so he can manage all of a half a marshmallow. But he will tape it for us. But who else? Everything has changed so much that I don't know who else. People work sometimes.

They're not even here. I would think that most of the time. We do have a morning show, East Coast morning show that follows us in studio but they don't really show up early enough to do any type of Ask Amy and they're very concerned about makeup. So they get their makeup done beforehand and the producers, yeah he's not here early enough to participate in the Chubby Bunny World Championship unless we were to move it to the final hour of a show. But then I think we're not going to end the show with it and he's generally not here in time. I suppose we could ask EJ to come in a little earlier but it might be beneath him.

I don't know. You think so? Yeah I'm not sure he's our kind of weird. Maybe I could see that. Find people in life who are your kind of crazy.

That's my motto and I'm not sure he's our kind of crazy. The Chubby Bunny might mess up the makeup too. Why don't all of EJ wears the makeup?

I don't know either. I don't think the hosts would be interested. They do a lot of weird food things.

They do. But mostly it seems to be some stuff they shove into other people's faces so I'm not, yeah I don't know how that would work. We're not looking for Chubby Bunny to become a contact sport. We just want everyone to keep to themselves.

Keep your hands to yourselves like you're in third grade. So I don't know. I suppose we could throw it out there and see what happens because Billy we know will tape.

You know what? Matt the Musher has said he's interested in joining us again. He would have to do it on Zoom. He is a defending co-champion.

Not defending but he is a former co-champion. Yeah and these days we can put it up on the large TV here in studio so that we could see him better than when we had him on a small laptop. You think? That might be something that we could capture on video. Right well I guess we'd have to record it while he was doing it and then you could use pieces of it maybe when you put the YouTube video together.

Is that too complicated? No so it would have to be like a Zoom video or something like that. No actually no Zoom.

I remember no Zoom. Like a Google Meet video. Something along those lines where I'm on the line with him through like a laptop and then we have Billy filming through another camera and I can just like you said superimpose.

Meld it together. Huh. Alright.

So maybe that's one of our next videos. I know we're a little bit late. You'll forgive me. I'm not going to apologize but you'll forgive me for being gone for two weeks for a honeymoon. But there's been a lot going on.

For heaven's sakes, Kaitlyn Clark is the biggest thing going in sports but I think the Pacers may have grabbed some of the headlines back from Indiana basketball fans and just basketball fans in general. So it's After Hours with Amy Lawrence. I have to tell you.

I cheated. I was looking at some of the posts on Facebook. The early Ask Amy questions and I'm going to read one of them verbatim if you don't mind. I'm pretty sure it's on our Ask Amy post or it might have been somewhere else and someone just oh here we go.

You ready? This is from Marvin. Hi Amy. Yesterday when you gave the phone number and then he types out the phone number 855 212 4227 then you repeated the phone number in the two o'clock hour. That's Eastern Time. You used for CBS when you repeated it which not only did I not realize at the time but apparently Jay didn't either. I thought you could not longer say CBS. I thought you could not longer say CBS.

Only Infinity Sport Network. Can you explain? Explain yourself. Can you explain? Right. Well old habits die hard especially after 11 and a half years.

I suppose that's my explanation of how I failed miserably at being a radio host. Are we in trouble now? Who knows? Maybe if the bosses actually knew we had a show but since they don't I'm not sure it matters.

We're headed to Infinity Sports Network jail. That's a thing. Also this is another one that I think is kind of funny and this actually didn't get posted on our Ask Amy photo but I feel like you'll find it amusing. Hold on. Let's see.

This may have been on our show poll. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. No. No. Not there. Alright.

Let me try again. Oh. Let's see. It's funny. Lots of people loving the bunny story.

In fact Chris said that he listened to the show on podcast on Tuesday morning and he was enraptured by our story about the bunnies. Okay. But here's another one.

Mother Nature will protect. Keep us posted please. And then at the end of Susan's blurb on Facebook her message. How is Jay doing? So for a second I was like wait a minute. Did I name one of the bunnies Jay? I'm glad I'm going to have to talk to the bunnies but I appreciate it.

So I'll read it verbatim. She was going through the other posts because the bunny photos are up on both Twitter and Facebook if you haven't seen them. They're so cute. They're a little teeny tiny.

Their ears look like the tip of a Q-tip. So sweet. Anyway Susan looks like you've got some good advice. Mother Nature will protect.

I don't know if Mother Nature will but Mother Bunny will protect. Keep us posted please. How is Jay doing? I don't know why I found that really amusing.

There was no like end of the paragraph start a new paragraph. Just right into how is Jay doing? And so I responded with I'm not sure I understand why you're asking but you can always find him on social media and ask him directly. Apparently I am Jay's keeper. Well I'm well. Jay's well Susan. Alright so any other really smart questions for Ask Amy Anything you can post them again on our show Twitter at Amy After Hours or on our Facebook page.

And yes our phone number despite the delinquencies of your host who's been in this chair for far too long 855-212-4227. I guess when I went away on my honeymoon and didn't think about sports or work for two weeks the habit that I had just started to form of using Infinity Sports Network and beyond kind of faded a bit. Do you ever do that? You change your password for an email account or a social media account.

You use it for two days but then maybe it's the weekend or it's a holiday or it's a vacation and you get back to it and you have no freaking clue what password you changed it to. Oh that happens all the time. Right so I think that kind of was what happened with Infinity Sports Network. I still don't know if it's the Infinity Sports Network or if it's just it's Infinity Sports Network which sounds awkward as hell. It's still for debate.

It's Infinity Sports Network After Hours with Amy Lawrence on Infinity Sports Network. It needs no it needs a preposition before that. It needs a preposition or a participle. Wait is that a participle? A past participle? I think it's a preposition.

The of to from. I don't know if I buy that from yesterday though because I didn't hear you say that. Oh you didn't? You think he made it up? I think he's lying. I think he made it up. I didn't hear that. Why would he be lying about that? He seemed very passionate about it. It could have been an older show or right after the fact but yesterday I think I would have heard that.

I didn't hear that. He was very upset. He is the keeper of Infinity Sports Network secrets. He's the warden.

Can you explain what happened please? Oh my gosh. Alright let's get serious I suppose. We'll get serious.

Actually maybe we'll take an earlier break because I don't want to launch into the game and then have to take a break right in the middle. But suffice it to say this was one heck of a start for the Eastern Conference Finals. Maybe you thought the series had zero potential and zero buzz.

So no potential, no buzz. When the Celtics raced out to a 12-0 lead to begin the game. Of course Indiana not quite shooting 75% like they did in game 7 against the Knicks to start.

But still shooting at a torrid pace. Haha the Pacers were able to shoot their way back into it. And they did. They started rebounding better. In fact there were some possessions as they were rallying from those 12 points down that featured multiple offensive rebounds.

They got contributions from all over the place. Seven guys in double figures in this one including Obi Toppin and TJ McConnell off the bench. It's always a very balanced attack as they work their way back in. And they actually outscored the Celtics in the second quarter. So it was tied at halftime which was delicious. Because I'm sure there were a bunch of people who were ready to check out after that 12-0 start. I say first of all give the Celtics credit for having a ton of energy at the beginning. They had a little more time off.

But also the crowd feeding into that energy and giving them lift. They'd had a great record at home this season. Only lost four games at the Garden all year long. Now remember against Cleveland, although that record doesn't include playoff games against Cleveland, the Celtics dropped one of their initial games at home.

And so it appeared as though they just had a ton of hop. Well the Pacers are coming off a relatively emotional and I would say tough series against the Knicks. Maybe not uber physical as the Knicks were losing bodies left and right.

It didn't end on a major battle. But they did have to use a lot more energy to get by the Knicks than did the Celtics in their last series. And so you can understand why maybe it took them a minute to just settle in. But once they did, lights out. So it's tight at halftime and it was tight through the majority of the second half. But do you want to know what happened to begin the third quarter? Celtics go on another 13-0 run.

So how about that? Coming out of the halftime locker room, they essentially did the same thing that they had done to start the game. 12 straight points, then 13 straight points. Although if you're the Pacers and you're in that huddle and you've already rallied from 12 down, what's 13 down really? And it was pretty clear to start the third quarter, it wasn't so much about energy, it wasn't so much about Hopp, it wasn't so much about that Celtics crowd. It was honestly about the Pacers coughing up the basketball. The number of times they had dumb turnovers or careless turnovers to begin the third quarter, that was really the story as the Celtics were building their lead back. But 13 is as much as they were able to manage.

That's as far out in front as they got. Again, once the Pacers started taking care of the basketball like it was their baby, once they tightened up on defense, and again, the contributions from all over the court had better bench production than did the Celtics. This was a terrific battle.

Tense. The kind that you might reserve for a game 7, though just not the game 7 between Pacers and Knicks. So we'll get to the final stages of this game. Again, it was relatively tight. Once the Pacers got back to even in that third quarter, it was tight the rest of the way. Highly entertaining.

Hope you enjoyed it. Big, big, big moment. So we'll leap forward onto the hard court. Of course we have the Western Conference Finals beginning on Wednesday night along with the start of the Eastern Conference Finals in the NHL.

Hashtag because it's the cup. So a lot to do and we are looking for your questions for Ask Amy Anything. On Twitter at Amy After Hours, you can also take our Final Four playoff poll.

Which series has the most buzz in your opinion? Because that's what we want to do. We want to collect your opinions. And then also on our Facebook page. It's just out there. It's out there.

We put it all out there. I'm I know I'm weird. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence. You are listening to the After Hours podcast. The wait is over.

That's right. Season five of the Kardashians is here. Just when you thought life couldn't get any faster, they're punching it into overdrive. Chris, Kourtney, Kim, Khloé, Kendall and Kylie are back and continue to defy expectations in all their endeavors. So get ready to go behind the glitz and glamour of the most iconic family on television.

The all new season of the Kardashians premieres May 23rd streaming on Hulu. Look around. You can find cars like these on Auto Trader. New cars, used cars, electric cars, maybe even flying cars. OK, no flying cars, but as soon as they get invented, they'll be on Auto Trader.

Just you wait. Auto Trader. The foul line is in the lane. He shoots over Horford. And that was impressive. A shot from just outside the foul line.

Memhart Cooley drains it. Well, the Pacers clearly are in the driver's seat with the lead, but Boston has plenty of time to get that two for one here as the game comes to a close. This is After Hours with Amy Lawrence. It's not over till it's over. Is that what they're saying on the Pacers radio network? And man, this one, no shortage of dramatic moments as we kick off. Kick off, tip off. I got football OTAs in my brain.

The other part of my brain, the nether reaches of my brain, basketball and hockey front and center. Some of you are so mad, too, because we aren't breaking down every single baseball game on the schedule every day. I'm sorry, that's just not what we do here. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence.

Again, on Twitter at Amy After Hours or our Facebook page named after the show looking for your questions for Ask Amy anything. You can ask me what I thought of the final few minutes of the Celtics Pacers, the opener of the Eastern Conference Finals, but I'm going to tell you now, so don't waste your question. The Indiana Pacers had fought back from 12 points down in the first quarter, 13 points down in the third, and they were actually leading the top seed, the president's trophy.

I know, I know. The best record in the NBA for, gosh, the majority of the season, if not every single freaking day of the regular season. Pacers were up by five with under two minutes to go, and the garden was quiet. Celtics fans were nervous. This is not how they wanted to begin the Eastern Conference Finals. Then fast forward, say a minute and 15 seconds, it's a one point game until again the Pacers get a big shot from Andrew Nembhard both times. He put them up by five with just under two minutes to go and then has a jumper that puts them up by three with 46 seconds left. Pacers are athletic, they're fast, they're using everything they've got just to get to the finish line in game number one.

And as I say, they had the Celtics exactly where they wanted them, except there was some time left on the clock. Nembhard gets it into Siakam, he deflects it out of bounds, that's Boston ball. The Pacers did the unthinkable and they turned it over. Just impossible.

Impossible. The ball went right off Siakam out of bounds. And how many chances are the Pacers going to gift the Celtics to get back into game one?

This thing was over. I don't know about the basketball gods, I don't think we can blame or give credit to the basketball gods for a bad turnover. Pascal Siakam is not getting to the ball first and then has the outstretched hand.

I think it's because he had a longer arm. Right? So his outstretched hand as he's fumbling the ball away is the last one to touch it as it goes out of bounds which gives the Celtics an opportunity. Again, still trailing by three. Off the inbound. Holliday's got it. No timeouts. He's got to get it in.

Throws to the corner. Jaylen forces it up over Siakam. He tied it!

He did it! Jaylen Brown from the corner with 5.6 to go. And the Pacers have given away game one for the moment. Now can they steal it back? Brown is saying he got fouled as he shot this basketball.

Let's see. It could have been. Jaylen was done in the corner. He put it back in his pocket. Siakam put his hands behind his back so he wouldn't be called for a foul. Jaylen forced it up and over him, falling to the ground with a three.

Then he's tied game one with 5.7 to go. And it easily could have been called in. Oh my goodness. No.

No way. There are no words for how unspeakable a loss this would be for the Indiana Pacers if it gets away. Good momentum play that we was able to turn them over and get an extra possession. And that led to a great draw. Drew made a great pass. D-White set a good screen and the rest was it. The rest was history. Well executed play by the guys.

Just great indecision. I knew they were maintaining. I thought D-White set a great screen. I thought Jaylen had great balance. Great pass. Great shot. Well executed play by the guys. Good situational awareness.

Situational execution. This loss is totally on me. With 10 seconds in regulation, we should have just taken the time out, advanced the ball and found a way to get it in and made a free throw or two and ended the game. But it didn't happen and we made some other mistakes but our guys just need to concentrate on fighting the way they fought in this game from start to finish.

And we'll be back Thursday. Poor Rick Carlisle. That audio must have come off TV or something where they're playing a highlight right as he's talking. At first I thought it was Celtics or members of the Celtics staff close to the press room kind of hooting and hollering because that happens a lot.

They're in the bowels of an arena. And what did we just hear from Matt Moore who was in Denver the other night? He was talking about how Mike Malone was extra salty following the Nuggets collapse because that press room shares a wall with the Timberwolves locker room and that visitor's locker room was full of hooting and hollering.

What a bad press room by the way. So anyway, Rick Carlisle, that's not what that is. Somehow that audio came off TV or something so they're playing a highlight over it which is why you hear the whistles and all that jazz. But the two perspectives on those fateful plays there at the end of regulation. Again, 10 seconds to go, Pacers have the ball and they're up 3. And Pascal Siakam turns it over, can't corral it before it goes, just careening out of bounds. Celtics ball, in fact I'm watching it right now on one of the TVs here in studio, Celtics ball Drew Holliday waits for the play to unfold. You hear Joe Mazzulla talk about how it was a well executed play. He waits on it and as he watches the play unfold, Derek White sets a screen, springs Jalen Brown who heads into the far corner. Drew gives him the ball, Jalen gathers, Siakam kind of puts his hands behind his back as you hear with Sean Grandy on the Celtics radio network. He does not want to foul and that gives Jalen clear path so to speak, meaning there's no hands up in the air. Siakam didn't necessarily get away from him but he kind of turned his right shoulder into him, put his hands behind his back so that there would be no contact, there would be no chance of a 4 point play.

But in doing that he gave Jalen a much better look at the hoop. And so they go from being up 3 with the ball, 10 seconds left on the clock, this close to an upset win in Boston to then having to go into overtime. And they did have one more shot but not a great look at the hoop on their final possession of the 4th quarter. So on into overtime, once again this game is super tight, hanging in the balance, there's a lot of different plays we could talk about. Like Jason Tatum driving to the hoop, an and one, so he gets a traditional 3 point play in the final minute but he wasn't done. Now the Pacers wobbling, can the Celtics throw the big putt as we go into the final minute of the overtime.

Boston by one, Derek White going slowly, straight away up top, against Halliburton. Halliburton comes to challenge, Tatum sets the high screen, 10 on the shot clock, Derek White down the left side, pumping, kick out, open, Tatum steps to his left, 3 in the air, got it! Big boy step up at the right time man, Tatum, yes, yes, yes! Tatum's got it, it's in safe for Drew Holliday, finds White, gets back door, cut, lays it in, Celtics by 6.

Stick a fork in them, they're done now. Cedric Maxwell and Sean Grandy on the Celtics Radio Network and if you were listening to Sean, I know we have our Boston affiliate WEEI, but if you were listening to Sean, you know that he mentioned the theft of the century, he just sent me a text, the heist of the century. I think he actually used the phrase Grand Theft Celtics on the play by play, so yeah he's tremendous at what he does, I love him and Cedric Maxwell who's a former Celtics champion himself and the crowd was crazy, except the crowd was crazy with those big buckets, the crowd was pretty nervous before Jalen Brown and then Jason Tatum hit that huge 3 which essentially sealed it. 10 points for Jason Tatum in overtime and he actually said that if they had lost this game, he would have been really upset, because he didn't feel like he shot well, but of course the Celtics showed up when they had to. It really just felt like we had a second chance, at the end of the third and fourth quarter, we didn't necessarily play well enough where we may have deserved the win and obviously made some plays at the end, JB gave us a second chance by hitting that shot and we just talked about it in the huddle, we got a second chance, let's take advantage of it, let's not mess around and let's figure out a way to win this game.

It feels good, it was a hard fought game and it was important for us, we keep talking about protecting home court, and it's whatever it takes and I felt like we played well, but I want to see how we can be better for Thursday's game. Al Horford, the old dude, 15 points, 6 rebounds and also 3 blocked shots. A couple of pacers who ventured into the lane got the what for from Al Horford. Tatum had 36 and a dozen rebounds, but as I say, the big impact came in overtime. We'll hear from Drew Holliday as well and Jalen Brown because he had a huge game, not just that 3 that tied it and forced overtime with a handful of seconds left. Tyrese Halliburton just using one voice tonight and you'll hear from him. As the Pacers come so close to stealing this opener, instead it's the Celtics who snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. And we got a lot to get to that isn't Eastern Conference Finals, looking forward to finally working in some football OTAs.

I know they're voluntary, but it's still football and we agree on nothing in this country except for football, so it's important. We'll actually do a May, a late May edition of QB News. What what?

That'll be fun. Until you hear Aaron Rodgers and then you think, never mind. It's totally fine. I could have done without that in my life.

Okay. Tom Brady, he's getting ready for his broadcast debut. In the meantime, he's coaching new NFL rookies, rookie quarterbacks actually, which is interesting. A little bit of baseball too. Jay and I are captivated by one rookie who's had an incredible start. Can't wait to see him on the mound again. I'm sure you can figure it out Pittsburgh fans.

So a lot to work in. Glad to have you with us. It's our hump show, middle show of the work week. 855-212-4227. Marco Belletti's here in studio.

I just have to tell you really quickly. There's a man who's extremely concerned, a listener from Georgia who apparently heard me and I don't remember it. Jay, it didn't flag with Jay. He didn't really remember it. I'm sure it's because it was old habits for 11 and a half years. But this man in Georgia is really upset that last night I gave the old four CBS tag on the end of the phone number. He wrote on social media and said last night in your first hour. When you first gave the number it was 855-212-4227 but then you followed it up with 855-212-4CBS.

I thought you weren't supposed to mention CBS anymore. Can you explain? Wow.

Do you ever wonder what it would be like to live a life like that where you have so much time on your hands? You work for the company? He's a plant. That's what he is. He's a plant.

Well that would make a little bit more sense. Some guy on your couch? What the hell do you care? Oh gosh. It's good stuff. I think he's just trying to get his facts straight.

Social media is hours of endless amusement if you don't take it too seriously. He's very concerned. He's not sure.

Am I listening to Infinity Sports Network or am I listening to the old CBS now defunct CBS Sports Radio? That's just somebody that needs to know exactly what it is? Exactly. I need to know.

He needs to know. Also this is something that Jay and I continue to debate. Maybe you can weigh in because you're smarter than both of us. Is it the Infinity Sports Network like the U or the Ohio State University or is it just Infinity Sports Network? Because it sounds kind of awkward when I say after hours with Amy Lawrence on Infinity Sports Network. Isn't that weird?

I'm going to go with just Infinity Sports Network. I feel like you have to earn the... I don't think you... Miami earned the U. Ohio State earned the Ohio State. It's just a preposition.

What if we don't emphasize it and it's just a preposition? No, no, no. I think you've got to earn that and we haven't done that yet.

We will. The INF. You know our Twitter is INF Sports Network.

Again, those are things you've got to work towards. We were actually coached on whether or not it was INF or INF. That to me sounds too much like Mission Impossible so I can't call it that.

The IMF Sports Network. See I was out of all these emails. Luckily I didn't have to do these meetings. If it makes you feel any better, I got the email but I didn't read it. I didn't get these.

And I'm glad I didn't get the sit down. I just know that our social media has like seven different things. Like seven different handles on social now.

None of them are the same. It's extremely confusing. Poor Marvin in Georgia. He has no idea.

He's just barely scratched the surface. It's going to mess him up. He's a plant. Again, that would make me feel better.

Like the bunnies in my yard. I'd be a little bit more concerned if he's not. Maybe this is the most important thing in the world to him. Is our radio show. Or the network. Well, not the radio show.

No, no, no. That's what I'm saying. Because that's different. That I can understand. That's a connection.

It's a connection. The name? Meh. That part is different.

Definitely meh. That part is different. And before we get in trouble, it's After Hours with A.B. Lawrence. Dive into the start of summer at Whole Foods Market.
