<v Speaker 1>Jerry, Katie and Josh one hundred. I was just flipping
<v Speaker 1>through the instagrams and I saw Katie, you were m
<v Speaker 1>seeing a little event last night in your jean jacket.
<v Speaker 1>Is that jean jacket a big hit? Oh? Yeah? Every
<v Speaker 1>time people loved denim. I love that when you go
<v Speaker 1>to an event like that and you see other people
<v Speaker 1>in jean jackets and you're like, you we have the
<v Speaker 1>same idea. You do that thing where you do the
<v Speaker 1>double point to your eyes and then you point back
<v Speaker 1>at them, Like when you drive a vet and you
<v Speaker 1>see a vet, Yeah, you get away. It's like the
<v Speaker 1>motorcycle guys that. Yeah, when you have the same line
<v Speaker 1>of thinking, you have to wave at that person. But
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's funny about that jean jacket and that
<v Speaker 1>entire outfit. I bet you I tried on twenty seven,
<v Speaker 1>twenty eight different trustes, Hu, that's not like you to
<v Speaker 1>figure out what I was going to wear. And I
<v Speaker 1>almost went and bought a new one, but I was like,
<v Speaker 1>I have so many dresses in my closet that I've
<v Speaker 1>worn once or twice and never seen again. There's gotta
<v Speaker 1>be something in there that looks good. And I like,
<v Speaker 1>have This is like a staple dress for me. I
<v Speaker 1>wear this a lot, but yeah, putting a jean jacket
<v Speaker 1>over it, for whatever reason, it looked fine. Last it
<v Speaker 1>up for you know, the nice little heels I had
<v Speaker 1>on with in I thought it looked pretty. They're called sescials. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>what are the odds. They're shoes that are made specifically
<v Speaker 1>for you for your feet. So yeah, I thought I
<v Speaker 1>looked pretty. You know, sharp if you will. But it
<v Speaker 1>was a great event. Food for Hope is who put
<v Speaker 1>it on and they are a great excuse me organization
<v Speaker 1>in town that helps kids hungry kids in our community
<v Speaker 1>not be hungry. They supply food for different school districts
<v Speaker 1>in our area and they work with like families. What
<v Speaker 1>I love about them is because having worked in radio.
<v Speaker 1>But what I found out last night is just like
<v Speaker 1>humans in general, when you start out in a career,
<v Speaker 1>you usually don't make a lot of money at first, right.
<v Speaker 1>And when I first started out in radio and I
<v Speaker 1>was a single mom, there were times where I had
<v Speaker 1>to choose between am I going to pay this heat
<v Speaker 1>or water bill? Or can I go get food for
<v Speaker 1>my kid? So I have had to stand in a
<v Speaker 1>line to get food before and it's a very humbling experience.
<v Speaker 1>It will make you really appreciate where you are in
<v Speaker 1>life in general, like you know what I mean. And
<v Speaker 1>this organization, Food for Hope, they kind of take a
<v Speaker 1>little bit of the shame out of it because they
<v Speaker 1>work directly with families. They go and they get to
<v Speaker 1>know the families and they give them things that their
<v Speaker 1>specific needs are. And so I just love how they
<v Speaker 1>have a hands on approach with not just the kids,
<v Speaker 1>but the families because their biggest thing is, you know,
<v Speaker 1>when the kids are in school and they're trying to learn,
<v Speaker 1>having a hungry stomach will curb any kind of learning
<v Speaker 1>that you're going to do. You can't focus on anything.
<v Speaker 1>You can't focus. Imagine when you're hungry. We've tried to
<v Speaker 1>do the show Hungry exactly. I can't focus, you can't
<v Speaker 1>get exactly. So I just like organizations like Food for
<v Speaker 1>Hope are so important in our community, and I was
<v Speaker 1>just very blessed that, you know, they asked me to
<v Speaker 1>come and see it and talk to people about the
<v Speaker 1>importance of such a program right here in the Denver metro.
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I'm big fans of the show. Yeah, I've
<v Speaker 1>met a lot of people. We got to do Fast
<v Speaker 1>five up on the stage. Yeah, your topics. So my topics.
<v Speaker 1>My topics were named five foods that are in the
<v Speaker 1>Food for Hope pantry and school districts, and then name
<v Speaker 1>five school districts that Food for Hope serves. So I
<v Speaker 1>had a couple questions lined up, but I had to
<v Speaker 1>have a third contestant, and so I tried to like
<v Speaker 1>mess with them a little bit, and I was like, well,
<v Speaker 1>I only have two questions, so you're gonna get asked
<v Speaker 1>one of the ones I already asked, and he was
<v Speaker 1>like okay, and I was like, just kidding, five things
<v Speaker 1>you love about Food for Hope go, So it kind
<v Speaker 1>of threw him off his game a little bit, but
<v Speaker 1>he was able to name five that fifth one right
<v Speaker 1>at the buzzer, and it was fun to do that
<v Speaker 1>in front of a bunch of people who didn't experience
<v Speaker 1>it before. So hopefully we get a few new listeners
<v Speaker 1>when we do Fast took a thirty today, Yeah, but
<v Speaker 1>it was just so I was so honored to be
<v Speaker 1>able to do it because again, I got into radio
<v Speaker 1>because I love helping out people in our community. I'd
<v Speaker 1>like making our community a better place to live in.
<v Speaker 1>And when I get to align myself with people like
<v Speaker 1>Emily and her husband and all the folks there who
<v Speaker 1>are with Food for Hope, it makes me feel good.
<v Speaker 1>When you're in a room full of people who want
<v Speaker 1>to give back, that is a kind of energy. I
<v Speaker 1>can't even describe it. It really is. Everybody just wants
<v Speaker 1>to help, and that kind of energy is just inexplainable.
<v Speaker 1>So thank you again to everyone who had me out
<v Speaker 1>there and Food for Hope. You can find them on Instagram, Facebook,
<v Speaker 1>Foodfohope dot org and help them out if you can
<v Speaker 1>as well. There's lots of ways that you can help
<v Speaker 1>on their website and whatnot. But yeah, a very nice evening,
<v Speaker 1>And shout out to Skuyler, who is this seventeen year
<v Speaker 1>old She got up on the stage and delivered a
<v Speaker 1>speech that had everybody like goose bumps. I mean, a
<v Speaker 1>seventeen year old young lady got up there and just
<v Speaker 1>made a bunch of adults really think. And yeah, when
<v Speaker 1>you get to be a part of things like that,
<v Speaker 1>it just kind of changes your way of thinking. So
