I'm a pretty good in the after the show show how do people complain that they of taking you -- -- Satellite radio channel and they're about to take you off I'm not would you go to go to their website -- and you go to new series XM radio.

As -- -- acts on series X and -- come back slash contact us an eagle let them have it.

And I -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Series exam were one in the -- not quite yet they're not quite together yet -- are beyond our aren't you currently your radio show is on serious.

-- is already had a break in negotiations so X inside on the civil and serious for another month band and the reason that is is because -- in the day Fox News who signed contracts with.

XM and separately with serious and they -- since combine forces.

And that's the studio the -- gonna be up -- And -- does plan.

I'm weird Alice in Mansfield aren't.

Thank you thank you very much Brian Kilmeade have a great radio show I'm sure he's going to be talking.

About the inauguration.

I'll be up there with him at 10:3 -- eastern time.

That's a shame about the -- so many people it's it's my understanding if -- for.

Interpreting him correctly that this could also affect you being able to -- -- here Fox News Channel on the -- Not just radio I fight as I understand it right now it is the Fox News talk.

Deal.

And you would know X and one of them yeah -- and we're just talk about in the hall.

They are both expiring by Valentine's Day.

The Fox News Channel that a lot of people here on the radio that deal expires I think in September or August and it's unclear whether or not.

They're gonna kick us off that -- -- around them.

That would that would be that would be not a good thing is to -- -- Well for all the shows -- for fox -- people in you know they watched part of -- -- -- -- -- Didn't get -- -- to kids to school.

I'm go to work it's a nice finish up on I can't say how many friends will say to me head -- -- -- is on the radio today -- could continuity for her folks so that that would be -- -- -- -- Do that also you can call listeners services go on their website and there will be a phone number if you have something to complain about you do.

Haven't put Fox News talk radio back on battery.

-- -- to still have those two cello guys around and she's fantastic up a failure.

You were great they -- and I love when they play AC DC -- way to -- -- or -- these guys these two guys from Croatia they were competitors.

In classical music.

They're like kids.

As they are funny they don't speak English that well but the one guy does and says you know I was better the other guys that he was better.

And they're both good and now they play.

-- these funky jealous that really don't look like real challenges -- just kind of a shell of it.

And and they play rock and roll tunes and they have made huge -- out of it.

It's actually it's it's gonna -- say it's my favorite instrument by the way my sister played it and I've played the violin.

This sounds a little different than -- -- -- -- Her practice -- Kenya because it's popular culture music rather than in Florida -- or some of that stuff.

Back in the day.

You know right -- Not having practiced for nine hours -- myself I'm pretty much know what it happens like Kenya did their can be grating.

Especially for my brother's -- yours sorry.

Yeah getting -- they were they were fantastic and and it's a good way actually keep kids interest in.

In music and music is first and it cut from schools and -- An and one way to kind of keep kids interest in this happened play popular to -- when I was in.

Grade school everybody played an instrument and then by middle school although that it was known as junior high people start drop and and now with the iPod iPad.

Like touch generation you know why play it when you can just listen to -- And and disagree.

No I'm just I'm still think detonation lay it builds great discipline and what it's it's good for your brain -- know how to do that stuff but kids you -- we get so many other things.

Vying for their time.

I think I think -- just read that participation in music programs is.

Almost at a historic low.

I -- but that's because they don't offer you -- I guess that's the first thing to be cut I mean I'm a huge proponent of advocate of the arts or sports or whatever it is -- I think it teaches.

Discipline and kids that when you put time into something you get better at it and it -- self confidence self esteem to stand up in front of people and perform.

-- my daughters can be given the -- piano recital coming up in mail all on her own she's nine years old.

I mean it's a big to big self confidence thing to be able to stand up and do.

That's great I admire that.

-- well that's it for this Tuesday that kind of feels like a a Wednesday.

We worked on Sunday and have a great day we'll see you back here tomorrow.

On Wednesday that.
