03:41610 so i think i'm in the clear fellas okay and what happened yeah so remember yesterday around 12 30
03:48ish i was my confession was i was a little bit nervous about us moving to the fm signal i
03:55knew
03:55that's what it was yeah i knew it yeah i was look i wasn't just performing or anything i was
04:01legit
04:02nervous i'm like oh man she might listen more and i'm gonna have to dial it back and can't vent
04:07to
04:08y'all like i usually do but i did my best to try to ask her on the sly like
04:14hey you know are you gonna
04:15be listening a little more often i was just i tried to bring it up casually and not only did
04:21she say
04:22she will not listen but she had three she gave me three wow i'm like what she gave you the
04:30sean
04:30pendergast three-point plan as to why she wasn't listening she had to power rank it oh no and so
04:35real quick on the sly oh we have to hear yeah i started recording this conversation and this is how
04:42it went reason number one is uh on while i'm at work reason number two it's on am radio reason
04:53number
04:53three it is sports talk it is i'm sorry it is talk radio with no music
05:04but now it's on fm so you so you have you have definitely taken away one of the
05:17you know what i haven't listened this whole time why would i mess it up
05:24um entertaining the people and now you you still have the freedom to talk smack
05:30about me oh she knows she knew she knows i think i'm in the clear man i was a little
05:38bit offended
05:38though like look i love my wife to death i look uh salute to christina and she support me with
05:44everything like anything i need she's there to support she would not support this show at all man
05:52and i'll be a little jealous because i know lopez your wife listened at times and all that stuff
05:57i know um salute to amy pendergast yeah she listened all the time and uh i think clint sterner's wife
06:03listened all the time ron's wife listened all the time i would not give me the time
06:09i could tell her i'm doing this whole damn segment about her yeah she don't care just send it to
06:16me
06:18she will not listen that's funny and she won't listen to this part so that's why i'm saying all
06:23there you go there you go it's funny because you know she has teacher friends or friends in general
06:28that hey did you hear what figgy said about oh that's a good point hadn't thought about that
06:31doesn't happen that often well not it didn't well yeah now it might be more often it might happen
06:36by the way man some of y'all be out here it's saying too much man because snitching she do
06:42have a lot
06:43of people that know who i am and she'll be like oh yeah your husband is figgy she do have
06:48a lot of
06:49that but some of y'all be over here like oh yeah i heard them talking on the radio i
06:53get that all
06:54the time i'm like yo man come on man there's dads that go to my wife's school that listen all
07:00the
07:00time man i can't believe john said blah blah blah about you she's like what yeah and the thing is
07:08they'd be doing it in in person yeah so they'd be like man i can't believe you aired your wife
07:13out
07:13like that and she'd be like what you talking about so now i got this playing in the car i
07:18was going
07:18hi it wasn't no big deal i want to hear it now i do the same nah nah it was
07:23just yeah we're just
07:24messing around yeah yeah yeah so i think i'm in i think i'm in the clear with this
07:31it's the mixtape presented by sheriff injury lawyers on sports radio 610 i want to i want to
07:38know uh i think i don't think reggie gonna be down with this idea but i think john might be
07:43down with
07:44this you're a big marketing you focus on you know stuff you could kind of market and you you know
07:51just spell the name right type of deal yeah i want to know if there's good marketing and if our
07:56station
07:56should do this so the new bedford whaling museum in massachusetts got a one-star google review
08:05that said worst aquarium ever and the only issue with this is it wasn't an aquarium
08:13and they decided to lean more into this google review and start doing something with it i want to
08:20know if we would be down for doing something like this because we get a lot of damn texts yeah
08:25talking a lot of smack about us but here's cbs news with this story bad reviews can be dangerous
08:31for any business but one place has found a way to fight back and it's winning the new bedford
08:37whaling museum is dedicated to massachusetts history all the way back to the 1700s but five years ago that
08:43mission was threatened by a one-star google review and the comment quote worst aquarium ever which is a
08:50crazy thing to say because the new bedford whaling museum is not an aquarium at all all of its whales
08:57are skeletons because its exhibits are about life in the past but dumb reviews can still hurt you that
09:03is unless you print it on t-shirts and hoodies and turn it into marketing gold the museum has launched
09:09a
09:09line of merch with a whale skeleton on the front and that google review on the back describing the
09:15offering as perfect for anyone who appreciates irony maritime history and a good laugh it's worked so
09:22well that the shirt and the hoodie have been selling out the museum's overall rating is a fantastic 4.8
09:29and here we are talking about it on live national television just for fun it seems the museum has
09:34indeed added an aquarium as they call it anyway but it's really just a tank with a little fish and
09:40some
09:40small sea critters still no living whales in the building i wouldn't call it the worst aquarium ever
09:47but let's just say come for the history would you be down with sports radio 16 selling merch
09:54with some of the bad texts we get saying i'm switching the music or they need to let go of
10:01john
10:01lopez or reggie need to stop talking so much and not talk figgy needs to shut up and just run
10:08the board
10:08yeah would you be down with making some merch like this it's not it's not a unique plan it's not
10:15it's something that has worked for it worked for new bedford and and it's worked for a bunch of
10:19companies i've actually worked at a newspaper um way back in the day that had something a similar
10:26marketing plan that had t-shirts with like almost like headlines from letters to the editor and stuff
10:31those things work like they absolutely do and you got to lean into it you know how i feel about
10:36that
10:36yeah i would be totally down with that shout out to rocky on the youtube who said damn i've said
10:41all
10:41of that hey we could put it on the hoodie and start selling yeah would you pay 40 to be
10:48able to wear
10:48that around rocky just let me know on the youtube page there where you are uh actually i'd be up
10:53for
10:54that the only thing about it is we can't put all the stuff that they be saying because some of
10:58that
10:58is not fit for uh printing yeah we got to find the good ones though the good ones like oh
11:03i'm
11:03switching the music that was that was a famous one right switch to music that's pretty funny maybe
11:08we could put that on the t-shirt we got to put your we got to put your face on
11:11it though because
11:11it's you saying that that makes it funny to me switching the music you want you want to know
11:15what irony is what's that music switched to us ah yes yeah there you go that's the right that's a
11:23writer's brain to put that yeah yeah yeah with all due respect to obviously though yes uh but yeah
