09:56and the winner is mayor preety the toledo truth teller
10:12the winner is mayor preety the toledo church
10:31Okay, when I first started here at the Toledo Truth Teller, I wasn't even sure I would write
10:38an article I'd be proud of, let alone winning an award. I mean, five months ago, I was pulling
10:45articles off a wire, ranking the arches on Love Islander's feet. Sorry, my heart is racing so fast.
10:52Okay, I need to thank my first editor-in-chief, Sergeant Jones, the only editor who can make
10:59you drop and give you 50 push-ups if you misuse the word, hopefully. My high school English
11:04teacher, shout out to Mr. Jenkins. And finally, I need to thank Ned Sampson, our editor-in-chief,
11:12my editor-in-chief. He gave me an opportunity that changed my life, and he tends to do that
11:21with people, so thank you. All you need to do to make a dream come true is chase it. Don't
11:29stop chasing. Thank you, Ned. I can't wait to celebrate with you tonight.
11:45I can't believe I won an award for journalism. It's just, uh, I don't know, it's hard to believe
11:50how hopeful I feel right now. I feel like, uh, anything could happen. Ohio award!
11:56Oh, Theo and I, um, we go back to seventh grade. He's a bozo, but we bring each other to
12:01stuff
12:02sometimes. This year, we have felt the loss of some of Ohio's most treasured journalists.
12:07Let us take a moment to honor them.
12:23Good evening, my colleagues. Keep playing, maestro. My name is Esmeralda Grand, and I'm
12:34so very sad for all these dead people. It's so sad to be dead. Oh, sad, dead journalist.
12:48You made your final deadline. Oh, yes, please. Respect to the dead. You are gone.
13:04Sad, dead, journalist. You are gone. And no one will read you anymore. R.I.P.
13:19Bye. Thank you. Thank you, guys.
13:36Hey, hey, hey. Don't, please, don't. You specifically told me that you were dating other people,
13:42but this whole time I was the only person you've been seeing. Gloria, Gloria and I, we just went,
13:47we went to go get drinks, right? I don't know how it happened. I was, I was, I don't know.
13:51One thing
13:52led to another and we didn't have sex. You tricked me into a monogamous relationship.
13:56It won't, it won't happen again. Wow, that's great. I wish I could believe you, but how am I supposed
14:02to
14:02trust you? Am I supposed to, like, hire a detective and get a video of you sleeping with someone else?
14:08We had a good thing and then you acted like a dog, all loyal. Oh.
14:17I, I think we need to break up. We don't actually. We can just not make a plan for a
14:23while.
14:23We aren't in that kind of a relationship. Yeah, see, I, I kind of was though.
14:36Wesley Holzwanger, so Wesley. He's still in high school.
14:45Thanks. Again, this is my third. It's like he was born to be strange.
14:53I don't want to mess up your performatively low expectations, but you might win tonight.
14:58Do you want to go over your speech?
15:00See a lot of friends.
15:03Let's find another place. I feel like it's so hard to think in here.
15:06Okay.
15:06There's people who like to prey on my downfall, but, um, you know what they say,
15:10if you got a prize in your hand, you're the guy, so.
15:13Ooh, you can't boo.
15:15Same blue, like the cheese, because he stinks.
15:19I'll be somewhere.
15:21Let's see.
15:24No.
15:30Oh. Oh, no, no. God, no.
15:33Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
15:34No, no, that's a wedding. No, no, no, we can't.
15:36This one. We can't have one. It's fine.
15:37This is nuts. No, no, no, this is nuts.
15:39No, it's fine.
15:41I don't.
15:45I'll be doing this.
15:47Who cares?
15:51That was nice.
15:52Thanks.
15:56All right.
15:57Okay.
15:58Do I start with a joke?
16:00What is the joke?
16:03Being a good journalist runs in my blood, literally.
16:07I cannot make mistakes, because I'm typo negative.
16:17Forget the joke.
16:18She laughed.
16:21Oh.
16:21Sorry.
16:22I'm sorry.
16:23No, no, okay, and then I'll just, I'll thank the staff, obviously.
16:27Yes. Oh, make sure you, um, thank Esmeralda.
16:30She's been a little off tonight.
16:32Yeah, yeah, yeah.
16:32I can say, uh, Esmeralda, hey, great dress.
16:35Where's your pitchfork?
16:48You know what?
16:49Mm-hmm.
16:53I think, uh, whatever you feel when you get up there will be just great.
17:02Thanks.
17:12What if I say that journalism is at a crossroads because of underfunding?
17:15Would that be abusing my pulpit?
17:18Excuse me?
17:19Yeah.
17:24I don't abuse my pulpit.
17:26God forbid.
17:30Hi.
17:33Hello, mate.
17:34Do us a couple of thick slices, will you?
17:37A hair wider than a common garden hose.
17:41With the gristle, with the gristle.
17:43Some lovely beef for you to swallow.
17:48Now, who would like to hear 101 facts that'll make you gasp?
17:54Marv?
17:55Easter Island, the heads on Easter Island, have bodies underneath.
17:59Yeah.
18:00I didn't know that.
18:01Yeah.
18:02Oh, interesting.
18:04The Terminator script was sold for one dollar.
18:08Oh.
18:08One dollar?
18:09One dollar.
18:10You knew that?
18:12Otters perform necrophilia.
18:13Why is that?
18:14Because they're cheeky, Oscar.
18:18Hey, Marv, what's not funny, ugly, and, uh, speaks with a British accent?
18:24Touche.
18:27We're in.
18:29Marv's choking.
18:30Marv, it's Ken.
18:32I'm gonna save you.
18:33All right.
18:34Oi, excuse me.
18:35Oscar, you greedy bastard.
18:37He's mine.
18:37Oh, God, oh, God, no.
18:38Both the Putnam brothers are choking.
18:40They're choking.
18:41Um, uh, Marv?
18:42Marv, would you like me to save your brother?
18:44Marv?
18:46Stop asking.
18:47Why are you just standing there?
18:48No, you have to ask me for two.
18:49I said and.
18:50I said and.
18:51What is it?
18:52Oh!
18:53Oh!
18:53It's me.
18:54Great job, Oscar.
18:55You're okay.
18:57Well, I'm not gonna stand there waiting to be thanked.
19:07All right.
19:14We should, we should get inside, right?
19:16Yeah.
19:17Yeah.
19:18Okay.
19:18And outstanding print coverage goes to.
19:23The revitalized Toledo truth teller.
19:28Accepting for the truth teller will be editor in chief,
19:31Ned Sampson.
19:35Who's Ned?
19:36Ned Sampson.

20:00It's such an honor.
20:01Okay.
20:02Holy.
20:02Oh, my God.
20:04Oh, man.
20:05Okay.
20:06Is that one?
20:08Okay.
20:09It's easy to be nominated and to get an award,
20:13but not to be nominated and get an award.
20:16Thank you so much.
20:17That's the real thing.
20:18Sit down, asshat.
20:19We have to improve local news in Toledo.
20:21Well, look at us now.
20:22Oh, hi.
20:23Hi.
20:25Hello.
20:26Sorry.
20:27Hello.
20:27We won an award.
20:28Teamwork makes the dream work.
20:30It's a team effort.
20:31Yes, but he wasn't part of the team.
20:34Do you know what you're gonna say?
20:36No.
20:36Oh, shoot.
20:38Okay.
20:39Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
20:40Should I talk about my dad?
20:41Uh, no.
20:42No.
20:42No.
20:42Okay.
20:43No.
20:43Why not?
20:44I gotta help.
20:44That's it.
20:45Ah!
20:46He's the king.
20:49Damn it, dude.
20:51You're winning.
20:52And we have meetings every day.
20:54He's never there.
20:55I would be catching up on the meetings
20:56through the means of a memo.
20:57Okay.
20:58We can get you in there.
20:58No, no.
20:59Just be happy.
20:59It's okay.
21:00I'm zen.
21:00I'm here.
21:01It's okay.
21:01You're winning.
21:02We have to get you in there.
21:03This way.
21:04This way.
21:04Here.
21:33Wait, okay, okay.
21:35Frank, um...
21:38Esmeralda Graham?
21:39Uh, no.
21:40Uh, I have, uh...
21:41No, not at all.
21:42I have my cards.
21:44I think I left my cards.
21:49I know what I want to say.
21:51I know what I want to say.
21:56God, I thought I didn't care.
21:59So I, I just, I just want to tell the truth.
22:03And that is what we're trying to offer.
22:05Oh, for God.
22:07Give her room to breathe.
22:10That was a damn miss.
22:12Miss?
22:13Miss, are you okay?
22:17To the truth teller!
22:19Truth teller!
22:20Woo!
22:21Detrick broke up with me tonight.
22:24No.
22:25So what, then you guys are really dating?
22:28Nope.
22:31Are you okay?
22:32Oh yeah, I'm fine.
22:34I just hope he's okay.
22:36Wait, who's he with?
22:41Oh well, that's a relief.
22:44Okay.
22:45Okay, I'm gonna get changed.
22:47See you later.
22:55Hey.
22:56Hey.
23:01Look at that.
23:05Man, everyone looks magnificent in the light of the Preston.
23:09Must be some special bulbs they use or something.
23:11Everyone?
23:15Yeah.
23:16Barry.
23:17Barry's dad.
23:21You.
23:24Are you trying to tell me I look magnificent?
23:36Oh, there you are.
23:39Mayor, I'm dying.
23:40My eyes are closing.
23:42Um, yeah, Theo, you know, I...
23:44Good night.
23:45Good night, you two.
23:45Wait, what?
23:47Yeah.
23:48Don't worry about me.
23:50Get some rest.
23:51Okay.
23:52Good night, dude.
23:55This is fun.
23:56Yeah.
24:05Hey.
24:06Congratulations.
24:08Well, congratulations to you both.
24:12Esmeralda, are you okay?
24:14Are we covering?
24:15You think you should be drinking?
24:17It's highly recommended.
24:19Okay.
24:20Ooh.
24:21Tragic.
24:22What?
24:24Did we both not see the same thing tonight?
24:27Marv is in love with Anne.
24:28Probably has been for decades now.
24:30He's principled.
24:32Denying to people a lifetime of happiness is principled.
24:37Anne works for him.
24:39So he can get another job.
24:41Or he can stop being paralyzed by what other people think of him.
24:47A great man once said, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
24:53Also an idiot I used to know.
25:00All right.
25:04Good night.
25:06Bye, Esmeralda.
25:10You know what?
25:12So what?
25:13So what if you didn't win tonight?
25:14You made it to the stage a couple of times.
25:16Three.
25:17I counted two.
25:18I also made the toast at the wedding.
25:38Hey.
25:39Hey.
25:40So.
25:41What's up?
25:42I didn't get to say my speech earlier on and I thought that you might want to hear it now.
25:46You know, it's not really a good time.
25:49I-I know.
25:51It's just, it's one part.
25:53Yeah.
26:01Okay.
26:03Jokes aside, I did a joke.
26:07I want to thank one person most of all.
26:10Someone that I consider my partner in this and without whom my days.
26:20Maybe you should read it.
26:22Okay.
26:27It's a lot of without whoms.
26:38I think the speech would have gone over really well.
26:41Yeah.
26:44All right.
26:46Good night.
26:49Are you kidding?
26:52What?
26:53You're just gonna walk away again right now?
26:54Yes.
26:55What else am I gonna do?
26:57I'm your-I'm your boss.
26:58Shit, dude.
26:59It's the definition of about you.
27:00Yeah.
27:00And you got Theo.
27:01I don't want to-
27:10I'm late.
27:16This is probably awful to say, but that makes me really happy.
27:20If any of your reasons were any good, he would have left by now.
27:28You don't think I want to kiss you?
27:29I have no-
27:30I want to kiss you.
27:33But this is our team.
27:36You and me, we're just-
27:37Yeah, buddy and the dude.
27:38Buddy and the dude, we're making it work.
27:40We're making the paper work.
27:42This would be the classic fastest way to mess everything up.
27:45We can't do that.
27:46I don't know.
27:47Maybe we just need to, like, get it out of our system.
27:52Just get it out of the way so we can go back to being pals again.
27:55Well, I would love to be pals again.
27:56I know.
27:56That would be great.
27:57I just feel like it's also gonna suck now.
27:59It's been built up and yeah.
28:01But that would be great if it was terrible,
28:02because then we could go back to normal.
28:03What's that?
28:04Because we would be a terrible idea.
28:05Yeah.
28:06I know.
28:06You're driving me crazy as it is.
28:08I just-
28:08Yeah.
28:10But you know, we're journalists and I feel like we should-
28:13We should verify.
28:15We should do the research.
28:17Okay.
28:17So, approach the pal-maker.
28:19Yeah.
28:23Yeah.
28:38Yeah.
28:40Yeah.
28:54Oh, shit.
29:11I would like to make a toast to this beautiful, beautiful couple.
29:17My love, you are much shorter, right? Oh, my God.
29:20Well, how does this work?
29:24Oh, okay, no, but you look beautiful, you look beautiful,
