early in the show like this where we're still getting to know people. I need going to do a quick survey here. I really enjoy doing these kind of things, especially early in the show like this, where we're still getting to know people. I need you to call
up or tweet, okay? Or you can post on Facebook, whatever. But I need to know how old you are
and if you're a listener or not. We're doing like a little survey here because we're still
trying to learn our audience. And I agree with you, Jim. People don't realize you're
a 45-year-old guy. You're in our demo. You're who we're trying to get. I'm not trying to scare off old white men. I like old white men.
Oh, I know. I know that old white men have money. I get all that. I want them to listen.
I want as many listeners as possible. Actually, and don't even screen the calls here, Ross.
Just let them go through, and I'll answer them just on the fly. I want to know from
people how old you are and if you like the show. Say, 45 year old male, 30 year old male, 18 year old male, 60 year old male. And what
really will shock you is the number of older men who do listen to the show.
Absolutely.
So it's not for everybody. I respect that it's not for everybody and I wish everybody
would listen to it. I like what we do more than what 610 does or what 975 does. Nothing
personal. I just like what we do and we're getting our feet under us and we're going.
So I'm going to answer these calls here
and just write these down, Jim.
We're going to find out our audience makeup,
our demographic makeup here.
Okay, so here we go.

Hazel I liked them all and Hazel was a black chick too. I don't know if I mentioned that for you guys
it's on the video but we had a couple of Hispanic chicks and then Hazel was a black chick. That would
explain why she was so good at basketball. Oh. Now I didn't even if we were going to put together a
favorite to win the dong long toss we would have had to have gone with her.
Yes, black. You should have made her stand back further. We should have. Wow.
How about that? Huh? Wow. You let the other ladies down. I did. I basically
cheated them. They were at a handicap essentially. Once they walked in and they
saw the basketball goal and what they had to do, they all looked at hazelnut
