Listener Calls In After Finding Us In Her New City

Published Mar 27, 2025, 1:57 PM

Our listener moved and couldn't find which station we were on, but she's back!

 

Get your head us together, and we're going to start to party. Start.

I'm ready to party.

See Elvis DA ran after Party.

Here we go, it's the After Party podcast. We got a bunch of people here. There's Scotty Bee in a Serial Killers studio. Look at that. And there's Gandhi and there's Scatty. Hello, and there's producer Sam. I see Danielle, I see Nate And here we go. So I got this text from Jessica. Let me get her on the phone.

Here.

I got her here with a callback. Hi Jessica, Hi, Elvin, say hello to everyone. We're all here.

So Jessica's Hi everybody.

Well hello, So I'm going to read your text.

It says for the first time since I moved to the Midwest, I turned her on the radio and I found your station.

What a great way to start the morning. So there you go, you found us.

I did. Yeah. So I listened to you guys on the replay channel every day. I listened to all your podcasts. I listened to kind of everything relations to Elvis. But yeah, I turned on the radio yesterday. I was traveling for work and I was in Sioux City, Iowa, and there.

You were so So where are you from originally?

I'm originally from Western New York, so a little bit north of Niagara Falls.

Okay, So do we sound different there than we did where you used to live. I mean it's a whole different place.

No, No, not at all. Same sounds exactly the same.

It wasn't your point to get out of there and get to Sue City so you could be in a whole new, fresh environment a night.

Now you're still living with you No, well, I took you with me.

Like I said, I listen every day on the replay channels, but no, I mean we moved from my husband's job, and I was just happy to hear your voices on the live radio, you know, instead of on the on the podcast.

Oh I love that, Okay. Questions for Jessica.

Was that how you first discovered us on the podcast?

No?

No, So I first discovered you. My husband, when I first met him, was stationed in eastern Pennsylvania, and I somehow picked you up on a drive between Western New York and east eastern Pennsylvania. And then I found out you were on Serious XM. And I used to listen on Serious XM. And then you guys started doing the podcasts, and I've kind of followed you a couple of different times.

That was a long time ago. You've been with us many years.

What is your favorite part, what's your favorite part of the show.

Oh, my gosh, I don't even know. It's like I think everyone says that it's kind of just like keeping your friends with you talking in the background. I think it's kind of cured a lot of the loneliness of moving so many times and doing all those kinds of things. So I really appreciate just having you guys with me everywhere I go.

I do wonder why people listen to this mess? Yeah, I do, I do.

I'm wonder I did I.

Think about what we let's say what we just talked about. We'll turn off the microphones and both play a song.

I'm like, what did we just do? What did we just say? Did we save any babies?

No? No? And I don't think it has to be anything groundbreaking. Like any of you guys talk a lot about the loneliness, it's just nice to have people talking in the background and have people you know conversating. You feel you guys are so like real with your listeners too. It's so nice to feel like you know somebody and kind of hear them every day.

You know, think back really hard, Jessica, do you remember that moment when you first listened to us, that you said, oh my god, they're really funny. Do you remember in particular what we were talking about.

I don't think so. No. I don't remember anything in particular.

No.

And like I said, I listen every day, so sometimes all of the lines get blurred and I'm forgetting what I'm listening to.

So maybe it was anything funny, maybe it was something thought provoking.

Have you Elread done anything to piss you off?

I do know you've never pissed me off. But I do actually have a pretty vivid memory of being in a drive through line somewhere when you were talking to Nate after he had his stroke. So that was pretty powerful and you know, glad to hear you're doing the second one.

You heard?

Yeah, definitely.

There are a lot of jokes around.

That that was. That was a scary time.

Yeah.

Did you like us right away or did it take you a little bit of time?

Good question. I liked you right away, And I actually have to agree with Elvis on something. The one part of the show where I usually have to either like fast forward or turn it off as the phone tap because they make me a little uncomfortable. But other than that, no, I I like you guys right away. And it's like I said, it was nice to just have some voices talking. I get my only pop culture news from you, Danielle, Like that's the only way I know anything that's going on in like entertainment and things like that. Lies I makeup, yeah, yeah, I take them with me and I spread them.

So this is an interesting conversation. I'll tell you why. I always do wonder why people listen. I mean, and that's a natural thing to do in our business, Like, okay, they're listening.

Why.

I guess the entry I get mostly from people like you, Jessica and other people is because you're my friends, and you're in the car with me, and you know, I could either listen to your turn it off and be kind of lonely.

I guess because you're in traffic or whatever. You know, you're by yourself. It's good to have this conversation going on, even if it's in the back conversation.

Yeah, conversation going on. I mean, I have you guys in my headphones when I'm cooking and cleaning and are doing things around my house. And like you guys are kind of always on, whether it's the Big Show or I'm a I'm a slice. So I'm I want to listen to the Brooklyn Boys. I've been listening to Sauce on the side all this. I've listened to your book on Audible. I can't tell you how many times. So yeah, it's kind of just like the familiar voice that that is in the in the background sometimes, but it helps with the loneliness. I've moved a couple of times and I've always taken you guys with me.

So wow, this is an interesting call. And I love the fact that we connected. I love that you sent us a text, and I and all the best to you in Sioux City. I mean, I know you said you moved for your husband and his career. What are you doing there? What's going on with you?

So we live in eastern South Dakota. I work in college admissions. So I recruit for a college out here students to come to the school.

Wow, wow, which school?

Give them a plug?

Yeah? I work for South Dakota State University, Go Jack, And yeah, I recruit recruit students to come here. So and I worked in college admissions prior to moving to South Dakota as well too. I worked at a small private college upstate in like Placid, New York called Paul Smith's College, so I'll give them their plug too.

Well. I've been thinking about buying a house in the Dakotas because apparently that is the best place to be in case there is a nuclear attack on the United States.

You're safe, yeah, I saw that a couple of times.

They have they have a lot of protection and they don't have a lot of targets over there.

So we're all moving to South Dakota.

Prepare you don't have a lot of targets. But we also don't have a lot of things going on, so it's you know, it's fine, guess what.

Was on the on the on the trigger, Jess, because they're waiting for your.

Meanwhile, the nucleus is where Gandhi and I live in Jersey City.

That's true. Jersey City is like the center of the center of where they're going to hit. It needs to be one or the other.

I need to be far away from it and not affected or at ground.

Zero like that's it.

Right, and this is the fun loving conversation you hear, Jessica, Well, thank you guys.

This has been great. I really I really appreciate it and I'll continue to support you from the Midwest.

I love that and it's so great to know you're listening to it. Jessica, you have a beautiful day.

Thank you so much.

Thanks you too.
