Speaker 1 (00:04):
This is the show. Now. I know we rip on
customer service in different industries and and things. I mean,
we're not much better, if we're being honest, we're not
much better. Not the greatest, No, because and there there's
I could I could play a Cliffree letter. I want
(00:24):
to get to the to the emails and stuff. But yeah,
we do the show for the people who enjoy the show, right,
and we're not We're not necessarily sitting here thinking about
all the little people and every little tiny can play
that comes in because you never get anywhere. You just
be busy putting out little fires here and then trying
to bend over backwards to please everybody. You can't do that. Uh,
that would be insanity. You can't please all the people
(00:46):
all the time, which is why we end up here
at the crossroad.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Xammit.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Some people just can't be helped and we have to
let them go. We're essentially firing man. Yeah and so
uh and so what happens? You know, we get people
(01:11):
that send us an email or something on the one
one of the social media pages. My favorite again are
the ones that come into the radio station email like
the general mailbox, Like if you go on the radio
station websites as contact us and uh they're trying to
get ahold of management to uh to narcas out er.
They think that, but it goes to everybody gets a copy.
Anybody who's in programming or whatever. We all get a copy.
(01:32):
And that's where a lot of these come from. Also,
the show email email at woodieshow dot com, and so
people complain about every little thing. As you know, because
you're you're a person on this planet. You're wake and
you see how people are like this first one, this
is end to the wood you Show email. This is
from Gauge subject the boot Liquor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
They always ask if the want to reply, they say no,
which usually they do, but no, I just want you
to know this. Yeah, dear WOODI Show our should I
say the iHeart corporate puppets? You really pulled the podcast
off Spotify? Why because you want to force us to
use the iHeartRadio app? What a greedy slap in the
face to your longtime supporters. I've been a loyal listener
(02:16):
for years. I don't catch the live show because I'm
not up that early and I have a life that Yeah,
and that's exactly why podcasts exist. But now, instead of
respecting your audience, you went with corporate boot licking. The
general public might be dumb, but I am not. I
know what this is. I will not be downloading the
(02:37):
iHeartRadio app. I don't care how many times you advertise
for it. I don't want it. I never asked for it,
and I won't give into being strong armed into a
platform that I didn't choose. You tell him, buddy, And now,
even if you do put the podcast back on Spotify,
you have lost me completely. Oh you've shown your true colors.
Your wishes of your employer are more important than your audience. Insane.
(03:01):
The whole thing is short sided, alienating, and downright insulting
to the people who built your success. And trust me,
I'm not the only one. You're losing listeners by the
millions over this. H You traded loyalty for corporate synergy.
Congrats to you all. Enjoy your bonus. That's from us
(03:24):
from Gage last Gage.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
We rut.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I love the conspiracy theory. Oh yeah, yeah, we lost
Gage you guys times do we have to explain this?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
The iHeart Radio app features playlist podcast, live radio stations,
and stations based around your favorite artists. There's no reason
not to download Buddy, Yes free. We're not the ones
that just in just in case anybody had missed any
of these before. Yes, the Would Have Show podcast is
not on Spotify Renowns because Spotify took us off of
there because they don't like the little songs that play
(04:02):
in and out of commercial breaks, and we again.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Trying to identify with them which song to have issue with.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
And because it's like an automated customer service back and forth,
we can't get answers to our specific questions. Therefore, we
are at a crossroads with them, and we're not bending
over backwards because we don't.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Know what they want.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Yeah, my last email to Spotify was am I even
talking to a real person. They have not gone back
to me yet. Answer.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, Yeah, we're on all the platforms other than Spotify. Yes,
the iHeart Ready app is certainly one of them, but
it's one of them. It's not the only one. All right,
next one, the best one, but next one. This is
one of those station feedback deals. This is from Micah
subject homophobia.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
On the airwaves.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
No no, I requested, Yes, good morning. I'm emailing to
Folow a complaint against The Woody Show due to extremely
disrespectful content on their broadcast this morning around eight thirty
in the morning, The Woodie Show has decided to do
a Pride skit called gay Walking with Sea Bass, where
one of the hosts goes around and talks to gay
people and asks them questions. The questions on this morning's
(05:10):
broadcast included name three professional football players, name three brands
of dip tobacco. All the questions from their admitted theme
of all of the things straight guys know. This is
my first issue making fun of gay people and quote
quizzing them on their manliness is disrespectful, inappropriate, and encourages
the spread of homophobia.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
You were so scared when you were talking to them.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Two, I'm afraid choosing to do this during Pride Month,
you know, okay making fun of gay people extra slap
in the face to the lgbt Q plus community. Continuing
their broadcast, the third interview question was about women. Quote
what's the best way to get a woman to shut up?
I'm going to ask you. The queer interviewee responded by saying, quote,
(05:56):
that's so misogynistic and rude. I prefer not to answer that,
to which the hosts of the WOODIESH Show responded, shut up, pussy.
Uh not what I said. I said, I agreed, it's
a feminist. I was incredibly disappointed, and I'm disgusted with
the hosts for abusing their privilege of having a public
forum to spread messages of homophobia. I will not stand
by knowing this kind of content is being spread across
the radio in my community. Do better, do better, and
(06:21):
make them pay for their mistake. That is that is
from Micah. We've lost Michaelah. And again, you only care
about the group that you care about. We can make
kind of ideo. Yeah. Absolutely, Yeah, that's where they drew
the line. Yeah, all right, let's see here, what do
(06:44):
you show crossroads? Let's see we got one here. This
is a station feedback again. This is from Kirsten Oh.
The subject on this one is do better. Yeah, all
right now. I also liked the little twist her at
the beginning of those one to whom it should concern, that's.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Pretty goods redeemed yourself.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I was listening to the morning show and was so
beyond defended by a comment that I heard the main guy.
Would he make I've never in my life been so
deeply hurt by a comment made by a total stranger,
and this is the only thing I can think to
do about it. Ever, ever, would he shared his unsolicited
all caps opinion that drummers and bands are interchangeable and
(07:36):
not what quote make the band what it is that.
I don't think he was kidding or said it to
be funny either. Do you even realize how dismissive and
disrespectful that sounded? The message was loud and clear that
people like my father, who was a lifelong studio musician,
and others like him who dedicate their lives to this
craft apparently don't matter. They're replaceable. Well, not only are
(08:01):
you wrong, you're a jerk? Oh no, oh no, Drummers
aren't just some accessory behind the guitar players and frontmen.
While I'm nowhere near the level of my father, I've
been playing since I was a kid. I've poured years
into practice. I've toured in vands, slept on floors, played
shows to three people and to three hundred. I'm also
(08:22):
a woman, nice who has had to put up with
men who don't think I'd belong behind a kit. All
that to say that I and many others do it
because we love it. Drummers matter, Rhythm matters. We are
the heartbeat of a band. Your opinion sucks. Keep it
(08:43):
to yourself, man. Yeah, dude, you probably like electric music
and rap. Lots of people do. But machines and laptops
can't replace human energy, soul and feel. Maybe that's the
world you live in, pre programmed, quantitized, lifeless radio DJs.
Your job is to support music and the people who
make it. Without us, you're nothing. We have a talk show.
(09:06):
I expected better, but shame on me. Your show is
just trash. Disappointed. That's signed Kirston. We've lost Kirsten every year.
New Yeah, Karsten, Sure, I'm gonna buy again support music.
(09:29):
Spinal Tap made this show forty years ago. Do you
think they got this crap? Probably? Probably not. There's a
new spinal Tap in my Yeah, okay, you said the
spinal Tap is. Immediately I was like, oh yeah, but
they have. I saw like Elton John was like dressed
up as one of the cares. They just did something
the other day. I was like, some cameos if I believe?
(09:51):
All right, one more, what do you show? Crossroads email?
Let's see. Uh, let's go with this one here another station.
Fee back since the radio station, and this is from
Melissa subject morning show. What do you program?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Replied requested, Yes, what was I just listening to? I
just heard a female caller on the air, Shelby. She
answered a series of very random and inappropriate questions, and
then the hosts of the show all voted and then
explained why they voted the way they did vote on
what you ask on? If Shelby was skinny or fat? Yeah,
(10:30):
shook me to my cored. I can't remember the last
time I was this angry. But hold on, it gets worse.
Then they opened an envelope containing a photo of Shelby
and they all cheered, exclaiming in delight, she is fat.
We were for her.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Some of us were right? Are you body shaming?
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Are we aware of what year this is? We're really
going to body shame people on a radio station. Back
to response with a detailed explanation of who allowed this
and what is this really? What you think the people
in our community want to listen to as they get
ready for work in school, And before you start guessing
(11:13):
if I'm fat or not, I'll save you the time.
I am not.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
But if I good.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
But if I a thin, healthy person, is this upset?
I can only imagine how much worse it is for
people of size.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
People bad thing.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
If you're thin, you're probably just ugly.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Then I am so disgusted. I honestly felt like it
was nineteen eighty five listeners to this garbage.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Oh nostalgia.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
I expected this feedback is taken seriously and tabled for
discussion at a senior level. Indeed, that is from Alyssa.
We have lost a listener. Yeah right, honest question, what
do you how do.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
You describe something that's overweight than people of size of
side in a nice way where you don't take it
as you're shaming?
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Uh now see thick also something don't phone man, you
take that wrong? Large tubby in charge? Yeah, Walius, Well
I can tell you who's lost some weight. We've lost
some weight, Yes, yes, we've Uh, we've unloaded the dead
weight of people who are just hanging on and listening.
Not healthy for their mental health, not good for us either.
(12:27):
We are moving forward, cross roads everybody. And you think
we don't read your emails, Oh we do. We're gonna
take a quick break. We got some more on a
show coming up for your next hang on. What's up? Everybody?
Speaker 5 (12:43):
It's menace This Friday, August first, four to seven pm,
West Covina, California. Hang out with me at Norms. I
got a bunch of giveaways. First seventy five people get
free food. I'm giving away breakfast for a year, give cards,
theme park tickets, concert tickets, and more. Again this Friday,
August first, four to seven pm in West Covina at Norms.
In the meantime, keep it enjoying The Woods Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I mean, Morgan, are you ready?
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Oh my god, I was born for this moment right here.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Y'all don't know this. I'm slut, I'm hallucinating. I'm heavy bread.
Oh Woody, Woody Woody Show. It'll fallow up to the
crossroads off the text oh to two two nine eight
seven sixty five O saying, man, all those crossroads just
a reminder against Woodi's best put forward argument in regards
(13:33):
to doing Guess whose gas not one complained about? I
can't believe I heard farting on the radio. We're children
in the car, so worry not what people won't complain about.
Guess who's got Oh they do?
Speaker 2 (13:44):
They do?
Speaker 1 (13:44):
We do we we we do get those again.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
We're doing what we're doing.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
We're doing the show that we think is fun, and
we hope that there's enough people. It turns out over
what at least a couple of decades now that it's
it's worked out. Okay, I think we're all We're all
doing okay here, it's fine. I love the Crossroads segment.
It's like a highlight of the best moments of the show.
Two on that, Yeah, you get a little reminder of
some of the things exactly.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Yeah. I just like hearing how people misconstrue stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Yeah, oh, halfway here things yep, nine one three. I
might be with Sea Bass on this one. But I
love that email how it said their morning show at
around eight thirty in the morning. Yes, morning shows air
in the morning.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Yeah, people say that a lot. Five am in the morning.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Yeah, oh really, five six to two. It's not that serious.
I mean, I miss the show on Spotify, and I
definitely won't listen to it on the iHeart Ready app,
but I will try to catch the entire show live.
Writing an email to complain just a bit over the top,
a little yeah, I mean, yeah, f that guy who
can't open your website. I lost you guys on Spotify,
(14:47):
but within minutes I found you well swim.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
So I have gone through LinkedIn and try to reach
out to like some Spotify workers directly.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
And if you know, if listeners cared that much about
their Spotify, I suggest they do the same.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
And we don't care that much, to be honest with you,
because it is on all these other platforms and there's
plenty of ways to do it. I just it again.
It reminds me of the Y two K thing, like
what did you think people would do as a society
when the year two thousand hit? And let's just say
for the lights did go off? Somebody getting their truck
and they go down they figure it out, ye, but
(15:22):
like people just like turtles on their back and they go, well,
it's not here, So I don't.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
Know, like that's it.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Yeah, I'm done, and and and and how do you
even engage with somebody like that's what's the hope?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Anyway?
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Thank you everybody who is here and who is enjoying
themselves and who are enjoying themselves. Thanks to everyone who everyone, everyone,
everyone is, everyone who is enjoyed. Thank you Greg, thank
you Gina.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
I say, be enjoying themselves.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah, if you be enjoying yourself, thank you. And again,
just because we're not sitting here, you know, worrying about
every little thing doesn't mean that we don't care. We
are should have other people who do spend the time,
and you come to the events and do all those things,
and we do get quiet. I get quiet. I can't
speak everyone. I get quite a bit of enjoyment out
of Crossroads type emails, comments, different things. Uh, you see
(16:15):
it on the daily, on our NonStop, like on our instagrams,
the one I see. I don't see Facebook. I don't
look at any of that kind of stuff or even
the YouTube, but I do see it, like on Instagram
and like like and it's the comments about like the
dumbest things. Yeah, like really, okay cool.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
I made a point not to look at our late
Instagram video, which which is, well, that's the seabast victim statements.
I made a point not to read. Oh really.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
They're pretty much on your side, really, but yeah, no,
I mean there was this comment the other day. It's like, oh,
I must be really getting to you. I'm like, dude,
I'm so callous to all this thing because it's like
it's NonStop four seven.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Okay, sof Gina joined the show a year ago, it's
coming up on a on one official year. And there
was somebody that made it made me laugh because it
was a comment somebody made about like Gina sucks, she's
a sea word blah, right, and and and Gina replied
something around like oh aren't you sweet? Yeah, you know,
(17:15):
and like a little like kind of like kissy emoji
thing or whatever. And the person then responded to that saying, well,
you just have to understand blah blah blah blah that
people you know don't like it, which is not true.
Doesn't there are people, There are people you look through
comments that there are people that think I'm the worst
part of this show. Greg's the worst part of the show,
Menace or Sammy or Gina who is the worst part
(17:37):
of the show. Like, everybody's got their take right, but
they they wrapped it up with You're just gonna have
to get over it. I'm thinking it's been a year
of her being here. I think it seems like a
thing that you need to get over. Your own advice.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
You're so right, yeah, done and done.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I'm over it.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
But sometimes I'll look at their profile picture and one
guy said something mean. I looked at his picture and
he had three really cute kids, and I wrote back, yeah,
I know you hate me, but your kids are so cute.
And all these people are like, oh babe, and I'm
like so nice. They just were I mean, you're not,
but your kids are.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
The other interesting thing is like when somebody does have
not not on you per se or just one something
in general about the show Man, they will go on
every post and comment basically the same thing because they
really want to be seen.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
They really want to be heard.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Yeah. I did see a pretty funny video and it's
making fun of you know, people who go in to
complain about something.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
She walks up.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
This woman walks up to the deli counter and she
complains about something and the person goes, okay, no problem here,
I'll get you know, we'll get you your money back.
And she goes, oh no, no, I want the argument.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I need you too.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
She goes, oh we're going to argue. Yeah, yeah, I
need that, And the whole the whole point was sometimes
people just want the fight, yeah, the oxygen. Sometimes, Yeah,
sometimes people just they want to complain about something or
you know, and they don't heard and yeah, and they
they don't want you to give them what they want.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
It's their entertainment.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah, it's it's just like they're I don't know, they're outlet,
I don't I don't know. Think they're already angry and
they're looking for somewhere to place it.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Well, in Venice's favorite word, it's their dopamine spike.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yeah, so and so whatever it is about the show,
you know, or the or a person on the show
or whatever that you I will take that other person's
comment and just you know, say that you should apply
it to get over it.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Yeah, yeah that easy.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yeah, probably had a good time here eight seven seven
forty four. What you can set us a text if
you'd like, over to two two nine eight seven more
what he shows and it's back in a bit, Back
in a bit, Back in a bit, what show check
back in a bit
This is the show. Now. I know we rip on
customer service in different industries and and things. I mean,
we're not much better, if we're being honest, we're not
much better. Not the greatest, No, because and there there's
I could I could play a Cliffree letter. I want
(00:24):
to get to the to the emails and stuff. But yeah,
we do the show for the people who enjoy the show, right,
and we're not We're not necessarily sitting here thinking about
all the little people and every little tiny can play
that comes in because you never get anywhere. You just
be busy putting out little fires here and then trying
to bend over backwards to please everybody. You can't do that. Uh,
that would be insanity. You can't please all the people
(00:46):
all the time, which is why we end up here
at the crossroad.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Xammit.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Some people just can't be helped and we have to
let them go. We're essentially firing man. Yeah and so
uh and so what happens? You know, we get people
(01:11):
that send us an email or something on the one
one of the social media pages. My favorite again are
the ones that come into the radio station email like
the general mailbox, Like if you go on the radio
station websites as contact us and uh they're trying to
get ahold of management to uh to narcas out er.
They think that, but it goes to everybody gets a copy.

Two, I'm afraid choosing to do this during Pride Month,
you know, okay making fun of gay people extra slap
in the face to the lgbt Q plus community. Continuing
their broadcast, the third interview question was about women. Quote
what's the best way to get a woman to shut up?
I'm going to ask you. The queer interviewee responded by saying, quote,
(05:56):
that's so misogynistic and rude. I prefer not to answer that,
to which the hosts of the WOODIESH Show responded, shut up, pussy.
Uh not what I said. I said, I agreed, it's
a feminist. I was incredibly disappointed, and I'm disgusted with
the hosts for abusing their privilege of having a public
forum to spread messages of homophobia. I will not stand
by knowing this kind of content is being spread across
the radio in my community. Do better, do better, and
(06:21):
make them pay for their mistake. That is that is
from Micah. We've lost Michaelah. And again, you only care
about the group that you care about. We can make
kind of ideo. Yeah. Absolutely, Yeah, that's where they drew
the line. Yeah, all right, let's see here, what do
(06:44):
you show crossroads? Let's see we got one here. This
is a station feedback again. This is from Kirsten Oh.
The subject on this one is do better. Yeah, all
right now. I also liked the little twist her at
the beginning of those one to whom it should concern, that's.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Pretty goods redeemed yourself.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I was listening to the morning show and was so
beyond defended by a comment that I heard the main guy.
Would he make I've never in my life been so
deeply hurt by a comment made by a total stranger,
and this is the only thing I can think to
do about it. Ever, ever, would he shared his unsolicited
all caps opinion that drummers and bands are interchangeable and
(07:36):
not what quote make the band what it is that.
I don't think he was kidding or said it to
be funny either. Do you even realize how dismissive and
disrespectful that sounded? The message was loud and clear that
people like my father, who was a lifelong studio musician,
and others like him who dedicate their lives to this
craft apparently don't matter. They're replaceable. Well, not only are
(08:01):
you wrong, you're a jerk? Oh no, oh no, Drummers
aren't just some accessory behind the guitar players and frontmen.
While I'm nowhere near the level of my father, I've
been playing since I was a kid. I've poured years
into practice. I've toured in vands, slept on floors, played
shows to three people and to three hundred. I'm also
(08:22):
a woman, nice who has had to put up with
men who don't think I'd belong behind a kit. All
that to say that I and many others do it
because we love it. Drummers matter, Rhythm matters. We are
the heartbeat of a band. Your opinion sucks. Keep it
(08:43):
to yourself, man. Yeah, dude, you probably like electric music
and rap. Lots of people do. But machines and laptops
can't replace human energy, soul and feel. Maybe that's the
world you live in, pre programmed, quantitized, lifeless radio DJs.
Your job is to support music and the people who
make it. Without us, you're nothing. We have a talk show.
(09:06):
I expected better, but shame on me. Your show is
just trash. Disappointed. That's signed Kirston. We've lost Kirsten every year.
New Yeah, Karsten, Sure, I'm gonna buy again support music.
(09:29):
Spinal Tap made this show forty years ago. Do you
think they got this crap? Probably? Probably not. There's a
new spinal Tap in my Yeah, okay, you said the
spinal Tap is. Immediately I was like, oh yeah, but
they have. I saw like Elton John was like dressed
up as one of the cares. They just did something
the other day. I was like, some cameos if I believe?
(09:51):
All right, one more, what do you show? Crossroads email?
Let's see. Uh, let's go with this one here another station.
Fee back since the radio station, and this is from
Melissa subject morning show. What do you program?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Replied requested, Yes, what was I just listening to? I
just heard a female caller on the air, Shelby. She
answered a series of very random and inappropriate questions, and
then the hosts of the show all voted and then
explained why they voted the way they did vote on
what you ask on? If Shelby was skinny or fat? Yeah,
(10:30):
shook me to my cored. I can't remember the last
time I was this angry. But hold on, it gets worse.
Then they opened an envelope containing a photo of Shelby
and they all cheered, exclaiming in delight, she is fat.
We were for her.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Some of us were right? Are you body shaming?
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Are we aware of what year this is? We're really
going to body shame people on a radio station. Back
to response with a detailed explanation of who allowed this
and what is this really? What you think the people
in our community want to listen to as they get
ready for work in school, And before you start guessing
(11:13):
if I'm fat or not, I'll save you the time.
I am not.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
But if I good.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
But if I a thin, healthy person, is this upset?
I can only imagine how much worse it is for
people of size.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
People bad thing.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
If you're thin, you're probably just ugly.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Then I am so disgusted. I honestly felt like it
was nineteen eighty five listeners to this garbage.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Oh nostalgia.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
I expected this feedback is taken seriously and tabled for
discussion at a senior level. Indeed, that is from Alyssa.
We have lost a listener. Yeah right, honest question, what
do you how do.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
You describe something that's overweight than people of size of
side in a nice way where you don't take it
as you're shaming?
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Uh now see thick also something don't phone man, you
take that wrong? Large tubby in charge? Yeah, Walius, Well
I can tell you who's lost some weight. We've lost
some weight, Yes, yes, we've Uh, we've unloaded the dead
weight of people who are just hanging on and listening.
Not healthy for their mental health, not good for us either.
(12:27):
We are moving forward, cross roads everybody. And you think
we don't read your emails, Oh we do. We're gonna
take a quick break. We got some more on a
show coming up for your next hang on. What's up? Everybody?
Speaker 5 (12:43):
It's menace This Friday, August first, four to seven pm,

got a bunch of giveaways. First seventy five people get
free food. I'm giving away breakfast for a year, give cards,

August first, four to seven pm in West Covina at Norms.
In the meantime, keep it enjoying The Woods Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
I mean, Morgan, are you ready?
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Oh my god, I was born for this moment right here.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Y'all don't know this. I'm slut, I'm hallucinating. I'm heavy bread.
Oh Woody, Woody Woody Show. It'll fallow up to the
crossroads off the text oh to two two nine eight
seven sixty five O saying, man, all those crossroads just
a reminder against Woodi's best put forward argument in regards
(13:33):
to doing Guess whose gas not one complained about? I
can't believe I heard farting on the radio. We're children
in the car, so worry not what people won't complain about.
Guess who's got Oh they do?
Speaker 2 (13:44):
They do?
Speaker 1 (13:44):
We do we we we do get those again.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
We're doing what we're doing.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
We're doing the show that we think is fun, and
we hope that there's enough people. It turns out over
what at least a couple of decades now that it's
it's worked out. Okay, I think we're all We're all
doing okay here, it's fine. I love the Crossroads segment.
It's like a highlight of the best moments of the show.
Two on that, Yeah, you get a little reminder of
some of the things exactly.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Yeah. I just like hearing how people misconstrue stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Yeah, oh, halfway here things yep, nine one three. I
might be with Sea Bass on this one. But I
love that email how it said their morning show at
around eight thirty in the morning. Yes, morning shows air
in the morning.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Yeah, people say that a lot. Five am in the morning.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Yeah, oh really, five six to two. It's not that serious.
I mean, I miss the show on Spotify, and I
definitely won't listen to it on the iHeart Ready app,
but I will try to catch the entire show live.
Writing an email to complain just a bit over the top,
a little yeah, I mean, yeah, f that guy who
can't open your website. I lost you guys on Spotify,
(14:47):
but within minutes I found you well swim.
Speaker 4 (14:51):
So I have gone through LinkedIn and try to reach
out to like some Spotify workers directly.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
And if you know, if listeners cared that much about
their Spotify, I suggest they do the same.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
And we don't care that much, to be honest with you,
because it is on all these other platforms and there's
plenty of ways to do it. I just it again.
It reminds me of the Y two K thing, like
what did you think people would do as a society
when the year two thousand hit? And let's just say
for the lights did go off? Somebody getting their truck
and they go down they figure it out, ye, but
(15:22):
like people just like turtles on their back and they go, well,
it's not here, So I don't.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
Know, like that's it.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Yeah, I'm done, and and and and how do you
even engage with somebody like that's what's the hope?
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Anyway?
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Thank you everybody who is here and who is enjoying
themselves and who are enjoying themselves. Thanks to everyone who everyone, everyone,
everyone is, everyone who is enjoyed. Thank you Greg, thank
you Gina.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
I say, be enjoying themselves.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah, if you be enjoying yourself, thank you. And again,
just because we're not sitting here, you know, worrying about
every little thing doesn't mean that we don't care. We
are should have other people who do spend the time,
and you come to the events and do all those things,
and we do get quiet. I get quiet. I can't
speak everyone. I get quite a bit of enjoyment out
of Crossroads type emails, comments, different things. Uh, you see
(16:15):
it on the daily, on our NonStop, like on our instagrams,
the one I see. I don't see Facebook. I don't
look at any of that kind of stuff or even
the YouTube, but I do see it, like on Instagram
and like like and it's the comments about like the
dumbest things. Yeah, like really, okay cool.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
I made a point not to look at our late
Instagram video, which which is, well, that's the seabast victim statements.
I made a point not to read. Oh really.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
They're pretty much on your side, really, but yeah, no,
I mean there was this comment the other day. It's like, oh,
I must be really getting to you. I'm like, dude,
I'm so callous to all this thing because it's like
it's NonStop four seven.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Okay, sof Gina joined the show a year ago, it's
coming up on a on one official year. And there
was somebody that made it made me laugh because it
was a comment somebody made about like Gina sucks, she's
a sea word blah, right, and and and Gina replied
something around like oh aren't you sweet? Yeah, you know,
(17:15):
and like a little like kind of like kissy emoji
thing or whatever. And the person then responded to that saying, well,
you just have to understand blah blah blah blah that
people you know don't like it, which is not true.
Doesn't there are people, There are people you look through
comments that there are people that think I'm the worst
part of this show. Greg's the worst part of the show,
Menace or Sammy or Gina who is the worst part
(17:37):
of the show. Like, everybody's got their take right, but
they they wrapped it up with You're just gonna have
to get over it. I'm thinking it's been a year
of her being here. I think it seems like a
thing that you need to get over. Your own advice.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
You're so right, yeah, done and done.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I'm over it.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
But sometimes I'll look at their profile picture and one
guy said something mean. I looked at his picture and
he had three really cute kids, and I wrote back, yeah,
I know you hate me, but your kids are so cute.
And all these people are like, oh babe, and I'm
like so nice. They just were I mean, you're not,
but your kids are.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
The other interesting thing is like when somebody does have
not not on you per se or just one something
in general about the show Man, they will go on
every post and comment basically the same thing because they
really want to be seen.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
They really want to be heard.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Yeah. I did see a pretty funny video and it's
making fun of you know, people who go in to
complain about something.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
She walks up.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
This woman walks up to the deli counter and she
complains about something and the person goes, okay, no problem here,
I'll get you know, we'll get you your money back.
And she goes, oh no, no, I want the argument.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
I need you too.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
She goes, oh we're going to argue. Yeah, yeah, I
need that, And the whole the whole point was sometimes
people just want the fight, yeah, the oxygen. Sometimes, Yeah,
sometimes people just they want to complain about something or
you know, and they don't heard and yeah, and they
they don't want you to give them what they want.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
It's their entertainment.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Yeah, it's it's just like they're I don't know, they're outlet,
I don't I don't know. Think they're already angry and
they're looking for somewhere to place it.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Well, in Venice's favorite word, it's their dopamine spike.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yeah, so and so whatever it is about the show,
you know, or the or a person on the show
or whatever that you I will take that other person's
comment and just you know, say that you should apply
it to get over it.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Yeah, yeah that easy.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yeah, probably had a good time here eight seven seven
forty four. What you can set us a text if
you'd like, over to two two nine eight seven more
