I had actually sat down with our big boss…and I was telling her, ‘Look, I really wanna have my own show.’ You know, I have my podcast’ Lip Service,’ and I was thinking [that] I would be able to get something like a weekend situation…They approached me at iHeart…and told me that [they’re] gonna give me my very own show.”
