Oh yeah, and the company is fake.

and the same heart that made season one a cultural phenomenon.

Watch jury duty presents company retreat,

It's Brook and Jeffrey in the morning

and on this day back in 1968,

Brook Fox was hired onto this radio show.

Wow!

She signed her first contract with a quill pen,

had the station intern take her black and white

monochrome portrait, hung it up in the lobby,

and from that point on her life was never the same.

Wow!

Not only has she been on the air doing this job for decades,

but she's been part of wacky stunts,

remote broadcasts gone awry,

and even interviewed Apple D app from the black eyepiece

of Disneyland one time, which was her biggest claim to fame

and what will ultimately be put on her tombstone.

It was the only person that would talk to me on the right carpet.

Brook Fox is a true legend in her field.

That's why today we're going to focus on her storied past

to find out what she's learned in this crazy,

ever growing, never slowing industry that we call radio.

So Brook, let's get to your list.

What is the first thing that you've learned?

Okay, one of the things I learned is that when you do a stunt

for the show, when you think it's done,

people can still be watching.

Okay.

Yeah, for example, me decided when I bought my very first house,

I was 26 years old,

you paid zero down for a house,

we're like, yes, we're going to set up a big brother

and we're going to put webcams all over it.

Whoa!

And the whole morning show is going to live with me.

Oh, that sounds crazy.

Feels invasive.

Yeah, the problem was,

is I was also secretly hooking up with my producer at the time.

Oh!

And I got caught.

Oh, camera.

Yeah, but just making out, I had my clothes on.

As I said, I've heard from this, it's been a while.

And now you don't even invite us over.

Yeah, see?

That's why.

She's looking up with one.

Yeah.

You did learn something from that.

That's cool.

What else have you learned about working in radio?

I learned that I never want to be in the military.

Sorry.

Yeah, in the military.

In the military?

What makes you say that?

Well, it's not because of like,

anything but the food.

Really, truly.

Oh, like a stunt gone wrong.

Yes, my dad was a marine.

Thank you for your service.

I get it.

But also, the food is terrible.

And the very, very first week I was ever

part of any radio show.

They're like, all right, we're doing a stunt.

You're going to eat MREs for a whole month.

Oh, my God.

Come on, military food.

Yes, powdered.

No, they're a wet pack, which makes you even grosser.

It's like wet food for a cat.

Kind of.

I mean, the beef stew is not far

from fancy cats.

You're not lying.

Come on, man.

And the thing is, thinking back on it,

it was like in March.

So I'm not even, there's no Veterans Day.

I don't know why we were even doing that.

Yes.

No, down the radio.

I didn't question it either.

So nowadays, we make Ashton eat Taco Bell for a month.

Dude, that is like, I'm sorry.

Posh.

You shouldn't be grateful, Ashton.

Yeah, I'm going to bring you in an MRE

and see how you feel.

But if you're just joining us,

we are looking back on Brooks

illustrious, extensive career in radio

to find out what nuggets she's learned

from this industry.

What else, Brooke?

Sometimes what you see in the news about celebrities

tend to tracks with who they are.

Oh, it's not a rumor.

Yeah, that it's accurate, right?

Like years before the scandal

and before the lawsuits and the craziness,

we got to interview Diddy at one of the stations.

Oh, no, that was that.

Is this another hidden camera inside your house reveal?

No, no, he comes in with this huge entourage, right?

And he is not nice.

Yeah, he's just going to say that.

I've never seen nice shocking.

Only is he a really bad interview,

or maybe I'm just a bad interviewer.

Huh.

He kicks us all out of the studio.

Diva.

And then proceeds, because the microphones

are still on, my man.

Oh, yeah.

Perseids to scream at his stylist

at the top of his lungs for 15 minutes,

about paying his stylist 70 grand a year

to only pick out t-shirts.

Oh, I mean, more rage than I've ever heard anyone expel.

But now you can relate, because you're a stylist,

you pay 70 grand.

That's a good one.

Yeah, that's a good one.

You know where that angle comes from.

Yeah, at the time.

OK, that's actually why.

Then it was wild.

We had the audio of it.

We recorded it in our boss.

It's like, you can't hear that.

Oh, now a day is we would

like it.

Because it's so nice on making the band show.

Yeah, totally.

We're going to be honest.

How are the parties?

Yeah.

Oh, you know, yeah.

She's saying, she's saying the NDA.

She's talking about it.

What else have you learned?

Do the way the funny that you say that,

because I've also learned that I am not

cool enough to be invited to any drug parties.

Oh, that's wow.

I am not cool enough.

When I first started in the industry,

I had a boss who would have these big dinners with record reps.

And I would get to go to the dinner,

but it was always at a hotel where the reps were

saying, and they'd all go up to the hotel room,

and then they'd come back down,

and then they'd go up to the hotel room,

and then they'd come back down.

I had no idea.

I had no idea.

And I would just sit by myself at the table,

waiting for everyone to come back.

She's like, I didn't know guys also go

to the bathroom together, so.

And then they would come back and my boss

would go, everything on the menu, literally, literally,

and then passed out in his dinner plate.

Oh, what a time.

Or yeah.

It's those early mornings in radio.

You get so tired.

Yeah.

Must be it.

Yeah.

So what part have you learned four things?

Do you have four things for you?

I have four.

Yes, to always be grateful for every listener.

Oh, you guys.

Oh, yeah.

My very first fan, I met in a little tiny town

in Cheney, Washington, and she used to win prizes

for us all the time, and she showed up at an event,

and her name, her real name, was Candy Penix.

Oh.

Everybody the line, and she showed up

with a shirt that had my head pictured all over it,

my face, and it was the strangest

and also most nice thing anyone's ever done for me.

That is so sweet.

The fans of the band here.

So I remember you.

Candy, that's candy.

Is she still around?

I don't know.

I tried to look her up on Facebook,

but I couldn't find anything.

I bet she would definitely.

She would stop pop something.

Yeah.

Wait a minute.

Yeah.

You've got to clear your search history.

Yeah.

So I appreciate every single person that's stopped

now here.

Oh, wow.

Look at those are the top things that Brooke has

learned in her six decades working in radio.

Six and a half.

Six and a half.

You make it look so easy, Brooke.

Full of great.

Coming up right after this.
