Heavyweight Has a New Home

Speaker 1 Hello. Khalila.
Hi.

Speaker 2 It's Jonathan.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I know. I have a caller ID.

Speaker 2 So, you know, how you're calling me almost every day, asking me what's going on, when's the show coming back?

Speaker 2 My headphones are getting rusty.

Speaker 2 When can I get back to making some narrative journalism? Right. Well, I have some big news.
Do you like that? Okay.

Speaker 1 I'm not used to hearing you in that mode.

Speaker 2 You better get used to it. Okay.
I know it's been a minute.

Speaker 2 A good long, year-long minute. By the way, I'm recording this.
Is that okay?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I got that.

Speaker 2 What tipped it off?

Speaker 1 The way that you're over-explaining everything to me in an expositional tone.

Speaker 2 Would you call it good broadcasting or bad mansplaining?

Speaker 1 I would call it good broadcasting, probably bad management, you know.

Speaker 2 That I'm, that I'm sharing this news with you.

Speaker 1 Right. If you're making this call in your capacity as my boss, I don't know about that.

Speaker 2 Okay, so you ready?

Speaker 1 I'm ready.

Speaker 2 You and you and I and Stevie,

Speaker 2 the show of Heavyweight has found a warm and welcoming new home with Pushkin Industries.

Speaker 1 Yay.

Speaker 1 I'm also, I think we're like probably the worst people to be doing this because I'm not so good at something thrilled either, but I genuinely am excited.

Speaker 2 Pushkin makes the kind of stuff that very ambitious storytelling. And

Speaker 2 I'm very proud and excited to be a part of it and to announce this new news.

Speaker 2 And you know what this means?

Speaker 1 What?

Speaker 2 It means that we're going to be back with brand new episodes.

Speaker 1 That's true.

Speaker 2 And we're going to be doing some other fun stuff in the meantime, maybe some check-ins, some shorter episodes. So stay subscribed to the feed so you know when the new new episodes are dropping.

Speaker 2 And please, please tell your friends, tell your ex-friends, tell your ex-lovers.

Speaker 1 I don't love the use of the word lover there, but yeah.

Speaker 2 Tell strangers on the subway, shout it from the rooftops.

Speaker 1 I was just going to say shout it from the rooftops. So excited.

Speaker 2 Yes, we are. So excited.

Speaker 1 Yeah, the way you say excited is really.

Speaker 1 All right.

Speaker 2 I'm very pleased.

Speaker 1 There we go. That sounds more like you.

Speaker 2 And excited to be making this happy announcement. So, thank you for sticking with us.
And

Speaker 2 we'll talk to you soon.

Speaker 1 Yeah.
