put together some of my favorite radio moments here to
share with you on our daily podcast. Do Hey, it's Delilah.
If you are stressing out today, here are my words
(00:23):
of advice as concisely as sweetly as I can put them.
Laugh often, watch silly movies. Call your best friends, do
something stupid, Laugh often, Laugh hard, Laugh loud. Laughter is
the best medicine. Don't take life too seriously. Learn from
(00:45):
your mistakes. Better yet, learn from my mistakes. Be wise,
look around and go you know what, that didn't work
out so well? Not going to do that again. And
remember there is a dynamic, fabulous plan that is working
out in your life. It might not look like it,
(01:05):
it will unveil itself in time. Kathy, you've called the
Delilah Show. What can I do for you tonight? Well?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I had a birthday last week, but I also am
requesting a love song for myself. I went through a
horrible divorce a couple of years ago, and I found
myself and I am so in love with myself that
I just cannot believe life can be this good. After
(01:36):
twenty four years married to a man.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
So you are married for twenty four years and divorced.
I'm assuming right.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
He walked out on myself and my daughter wiped out
the bank account, had a texting affair going on with
a coworker while I was in the oncologist's office being
cleared of cancer. And I was second wife. He's now
on his third wife with three new children, and I'm
(02:05):
putting our daughter through college on my own. You helped
me get through every single night for the last almost
two months. I have no money to pay my telephone,
my internet, or my TV. I rely on your radio
station to get me through.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Well, Kathy, I thought I had married, you know, the
biggest jerks in the world, But I think you got
me beat girl yet.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
And he's seventeen years older than me, but is now
thirty four years older than his present wife. And he
had the nerve to bring her to my oldest daughter's wedding, okay,
and they were expecting their first child and his grandson
will be five and he has never seen him.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Ain no fool like an old fool exactly. Well, let
me play a good song for you, honey.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Thank you so much to lie Hi.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Welcome to the Delilah show.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Who is this Tony?
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Hi, Tony, Welcome aboard. What can I do for you?
Speaker 3 (03:14):
First off, I wanted to tell you that every time
I'm listening to your program, I always tear up a
little bit. Nothing actually makes me tear hoop quite like that,
except perhaps The Titanic.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
But it's just the saddest movie ever.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
It is. I mean, I was a ten year old
boy and right there, you know, I just that was it.
I was like, I want a romance like that.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Yeah, I wanted a romance like that, But I you know,
I kept saying, why is why are you letting him
go blim up on that piece of wood with you?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I never understood that. As again, yeah to a ten
year old, that was like, I don't understand is that
we were supposed to do that?
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Or yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
No to me to this day, I don't understand that.
And why throw the necklace in the ocean? Why why
throw the necklace in the ocean and give it to
somebody that needs it?
Speaker 3 (04:02):
You're not thinking about the future. What about college tuition?
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Thank you, thank you, thank you? No no, no, no no,
don't throw that overboard.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Don't throw that too.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Late, too late. Well, I'm glad you called. I'm glad
you're listening, and I will play that song for you,

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Twenty The first five were't so happy.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Well, fortunately for us, we've never been able to say
the bad years were at the same time, so we
don't agree on which five years weren't good bye.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
But someplace in those last twenty five years there's been
at least four or five that were kind of wrap.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Everybody goes through their ups and downs, but thank goodness,
we've both been too stubborn to give up.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
And what can I play for you and your beloved tonight?
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Go ahead and find one. You're the queen of love songs.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I am the queen of sappy love songs. There aren't
many things in this world that I'm really good at
but picking sappy love songs. I am okay at. I
know that I will find a good song for you. Congratulations, Sonny,
thank you so much. I so hope you have enjoyed
these radio moments as much as I enjoy bringing them
(07:22):
to you. I'll share more with you each weekday. On Ay,
