The Ex Talk

SHAY GOLDSTEIN: Ruthie’s our fantastic producer, and you may remember her from both The Ex Talk and Puget Sounds, a local show she and I worked on back at Pacific Public Radio. She doesn’t like being on the radio, so—

RUTHIE LIAO: Bye, guys!

SHAY GOLDSTEIN: We’re trying to view this podcast as more of a hobby than a job, which means, yes, I’m still job hunting. Storytelling was always what I loved most about radio, and I’m curious about exploring it in other mediums. I’ve been taking classes, doing research . . . you know, just trying to figure out what to do with my adult life.

DOMINIC YUN: And I’ve been doing some work for a startup that’s building a new platform for nonprofit fundraising.

SHAY GOLDSTEIN: He’s great at it.

DOMINIC YUN: You are such a suck-up.

SHAY GOLDSTEIN: A cute suck-up?

DOMINIC YUN: Obviously.

SHAY GOLDSTEIN: Public radio will always have a place in my heart, but we’re both really excited about this new venture. We hope you stick with us.

DOMINIC YUN: We’re not sure where it’ll go from here, but I think it’s going to be a pretty good story.

SHAY GOLDSTEIN: And now, a word from our sponsors.
