more dates are happening for their residency at the Sphere
in Las Vegas.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
Luke Bryan has offered.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
Up some exclamation except you know, because he's been canceling
shows all the time. A month ago, he admitted his
voice was shot during a concert. He refunded everybody's ticket
because he said he wasn't one hundred percent. Now he's
coming clean. He told the crowd last week in South Carolina,
I had COVID, you guys, and the cool crowd was booing,

(04:46):
and he said, don't worry, I'm back and I'm one
hundred percent.

Speaker 4 (04:50):
Uh post Malone. I don't know if you've heard about this.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
There.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
There are court cases both in California and in Utah
for their three year old daughter that they share. I
guess the little girl has lived with both parents, but
most recently he's been on tour, so I guess she's
been with her mom and I don't know.

Speaker 4 (05:14):
I have to imagine.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Custody cases are so difficult as it is, and then
when he's in the middle of a world tour right now,
that's probably pretty tricky. So we're thinking about them right now.

Speaker 4 (05:28):
So there you go. There's your Music City.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
Minute ninety three point one WPOC traffic all right, the.

reviews of the song yet, so you.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Can't miss it. All right? I need some advice.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
You can call me eight hundred three two thirty six
ninety three, or you can text seven seven ninety six
to two. Begin your message with high or hey, we
have to do we have to do this self. I
don't know what they're what. They're calling it self survey.
Let me look, let me look with self assessment for work?
Oh my god, I've been trying to put it off.

Speaker 4 (06:47):
Let's see. What's it called? I just gotta incomplete employee
self evaluation.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
I just got a notification this must be completed by
clothes of business today, a self evaluation.

Speaker 4 (07:00):
Have you guys done this at work?

Speaker 1 (07:02):
I've been putting it off because I'm like, well, maybe
this will just go away because I'm not gonna not
good at like deciding what like evaluating myself. I don't
want to do that, right? Are you doing this at work?
Are you an HR person? How does this go? On
your end?

Speaker 4 (07:18):
Advice? Please? How do you how? How does one evaluate oneself? Fairly?

Speaker 6 (07:24):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (07:24):
So, I said to my boss, because I said, are
people generally pretty hard on themselves on those things?

Speaker 4 (07:29):
And he was like, no, actually not.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
I was like really, because I would think that people
would just be like super hard on themselves and then
they'd have their review with their supervisor and they'd be.

Speaker 4 (07:37):
Like, no, that's really you know.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
No, he said people are pretty easy on themselves, and
I thought that was so funny. But asking him that
question made me fear it even more because I was like,
now now I don't know what to put. I'm overthinking
this right anyway, let me know seven seven ninety six
two begin your message with high or hey call me
eight hundred three two one thirty six ninety three. We
got to self evaluate Bethany sometime today, and I'm having

(08:03):
just my old panic over it. It's Morgan Wallen right now,
I'm the problem.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
It seems like his self evaluation.

Speaker 6 (08:16):
Say, I'll have changed just to go around town with
some gasoline, just trying to bomb flang, going to borron
a whole place down. How do you explain ever fallen
in a little.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
It's Morgan Wallen ninety three point one w POC. It's
Bethany with you, Michael j On vacation. He'll be back
next week. I wonder if he did his self evaluation.
We're talking about self evaluations, and ihearts our company has
put out this this memo that says that we have
to do it, and I'm like no, and it went.
It came out like two weeks ago. I've been just

(09:00):
like ignoring it, like this will probably go away. And
then I got a notification from the boss yesterday that
was like this needs to be done.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
I was like, shoot from the tex Someone said, hey, Bethn,
you hit that.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Luke button again. Oh, I'm gonna I'm gonna hit it.
It's coming up at eight o'clock. And then so I
also want to know what's going on with your weekend.
Someone said, I'm gonna go to Hershey tomorrow night with friends,
and then Sunday celebrating my mom's birthday day earlier and
going to cheesecake factory for dinner. Yes, I think Shanaya
is at Hershey tomorrow night.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
I wonder if that's where they're going.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
Okay, So about the self evaluation. Someone said, I'm a
medical assistant in Laurel. We have annual surveys we have
to do for a review well, what do you put?

Speaker 4 (09:40):
How do you what do you do?

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Then someone else said, I have a self evaluation every year,
and then I also have to evaluate others. Ah, they said,
I hate it, but I always talked myself up all
the time.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
Yes, I love that.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Someone else said, I've been doing it for fifteen years
and I hate it.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
I just did my last one and I'm soon retire.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
Okay, all right, yeah, so so retirement, that's what I've
got to do, all right?

That actually sounds like a lot of fun. Chuck.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
All right, Chuck, Chuck from Pasadena says, talking about your
self evaluation, I don't think there's anything to be hard
on yourself about. It seems to me like you're doing
a great job and you're very playful on the air.

to get responses from listeners. Keep up the great work, Bethany, Okay,

self evaluations. It feels like a trap.

Speaker 4 (12:12):
Right, that's kind of how I feel about it, But
I don't think it is right.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
Someone said, I'm not a fan of self evaluations, but
I just like to comment that I'm the greatest and
show me the money. Yes, well, thanks for guys for
all the advice. I am gonna use chet GPT and
see how that works out.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
The Friday feels like confetti in my soul and coffee
in my veins. But this is interesting. This one takes
a turn. This woman says, I'd be lying if I
didn't admit there's a tiny sting underneath my sparkle. I
found out someone I looked up to time when I
was thirteen blocked me on Facebook. But hey, it's still Friday.

(14:05):
The weekend is here, and I'm choosing joy because nothing
can dull my sparkle for too long.

Speaker 6 (17:13):
The College in the College.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
J JO It's Sam Hunt Country House, ninety three point
one w POC on a Friday morning.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
Hello, I have.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Been gifted with an extra pair of Saturday in the
Country tickets and I would like to give them away
to our early risers today. So I came up with
a fun, little game, little trivia moment. Okay, you know
how the WNBA players are trying to get paid more, right,
now they would like to be paid what they're worth.

Speaker 4 (17:58):
Novel idea.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
So what I I thought we'd do is I want
you to take the lowest NBA salary and subtract the
highest WNBA salary and tell me what the difference is.

Speaker 4 (18:15):
Okay, so let's just see how big the gap is.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Between the NBA and the WWNBA. Find the lowest salary
in the NBA and subtract the highest salary of the
WNBA players. Tell me the difference, and you could win
Saturday in the country tickets. The number is eight hundred
three two one thirty six ninety three. I love how
the phones are all ringing like you did math that quick?
Maybe you did, but uh, you're probably gonna have to

(18:40):
google something. There's a hint. All right, let's see how
let's see what the salary gap differences between the NBA
and the WNBA.

Speaker 3 (18:47):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (18:48):
Oh Darius Rucker, all right, Uh, he's fantastic.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
I love him and he is definitely four women's sports,
so uh he would love this little game.

Speaker 6 (18:57):
Alright. Ah, yes, you after after all the faro.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
It's the latest from Thomas Rhet ninety three point one
w POC. Good morning, it's Bethany Michael Jay's on vacation.
We have an extra pair Saturday in the Country tickets
to give away. So I thought we'd do it in
a fun way, a little math problem for you. The
WNBA ladies are trying to get more money. They're not
paid what they're worth, and so I thought we'd do
a little fun math game to demonstrate the difference. I

(19:39):
wanted you to take the lowest paid NBA player and
subtract the highest paid w NBA player salaries and let
me know what the difference is.

Speaker 4 (19:49):
Good morning, w POC.

Speaker 6 (19:50):
The difference is one dollars. WHOA, that was so fast?

Speaker 4 (19:56):
How did you get that so fast? I'll go A,
I guess so and googling. You're fast at googling. Who
am I talking to?

Speaker 6 (20:06):
Who's this Ross?

Speaker 4 (20:07):
Ross? How are you today? Ross? Are you never been better? Literally?

Speaker 1 (20:13):
So?

Speaker 4 (20:14):
What do you think of this salary gap?

Speaker 5 (20:17):
I guess it's not right, not at all?

Speaker 4 (20:19):
Good answer, Ross.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
You want tickets to Saturday in the Country, So congratulations,
You're gonna go see Caane Brown Shaboozi.

Speaker 4 (20:27):
Everybody's gonna be there. It's gonna be a rager. Okay,
all right, thank you, all right?

Speaker 1 (20:32):
So the lowest paid NBA players make one million, two
hundred and seventy two thousand dollars and the highest paid
WNBA player makes two hundred and fifty two thousand, four
hundred and fifty.

Speaker 4 (20:46):
So I mean, when you put it like that, maybe
they give them a couple extra dollars.

Speaker 6 (20:51):
What do you thank you?

Speaker 1 (20:52):
Here's Cole Swindell single Saturday Nights Congratulations.

Speaker 4 (20:56):
Ross, have fun of the concerts.

Speaker 6 (21:01):
Yeah, my last.
