[Announcer] Unemployment in the valley is rising,
as more and more workers are being replaced
by automation at warehouses in the area,
[Announcer] Your XXX,
Put your XXX on anything in any way,
and you can win 10,000 bucks,
(radio static)
[Man] I'm trying to deal with these serious matters,
as we all are, September's gonna be a very difficult month,
(cheering)
(energetic marching band music)
Hello, Lehigh Valley!
We're coming to you live from the great WTYT 960
Billboard Sitting Contest!
No one said we'd have this kind of turnout,
You made it happen, boss-man,
Yes,
Come on, people, I need some energy here,
Are you excited, are you ready?
(cheering) Okay, well, here they are!
Please welcome,,,
We have Shelby Reynolds,
Ellen Snyder,
Josh Richards,
And Clark Thompson,
We have four great WTYT billboard sitting contestants!
They will live on this billboard in a tent
for the chance to win a mobile home and $96,000,
(crowd cheering)
Okay, will the contestants please
make their way to the ladder?
So, Lehigh Valley, are we ready to get
the great WTYT Billboard Sitting Contest underway?
(cheering)
Okay, contestants, let the ascent begin,
[Crowd] 12, 11, 10, nine, eight, seven--
Wait, wait,
There seems to be a problem with Junior, folks, uh,
(somber music)
[Female Voice On Radio] Times are tough right now,
Everyone in this city is chasing the American dream,
thinking, hey, why not me?
[Female Voice On Radio] What do you expect with only
three news outlets in Allentown?
All of the news to be reported?
[Male Voice On Radio] And there's been some debate
as to the size of Allentown,
According to the latest census reports,
we have over 118,000 people living in our city,
who make, on average, $16,282 per year,
Now, that's about as much as other cities,
(muffled rock music)
(crying)
(exhaling deeply)
You didn't pay the water bill, Dad?
I gotta pay the water bill,
And the electric,
Okay,
Doesn't fuckin' work,
Hey, Henry, can you come in here for a second?
Henry?
What's up, boss-man?
And don't call me that, please,
Well, you are,
You'll get used to it,
Who runs the books?
Well, your dad hired me to,
but never handed over the reins,
I just handle our sales accounts, promotions,
marketing, and operations,
That's it,
Yep, that's it,
I mean, there's no PNL, or something like that?
If there is, I never saw one,
I mean, there were a lot of days your dad
really struggled, but he always found a way
to keep the station alive,
So there's no one here that knows
the financial status of the station,
[Henry] Hm, Jezebel might,
She's been here the longest,
Well, can you go get her for a second?
She's on air for another two hours,
How am I supposed to run a radio station
when I don't know anything about it?
Come on, radio's in your blood,
No, I know nothing about the radio business,
And neither did your dad,
He just went with his gut, and in your guts is his DNA,
Look, I don't know what to say, but you can do this,
I gotta find a way to save his legacy,
And all of us here want that too,
Where do we start?
Welcome, joining us today is Casey Lindeweiler,
He's the creator of the WTYT Billboard Sitting Contest
and the owner of the WTYT radio station,
Welcome, Casey,
(audience applauding)
Casey, thanks for being here,
Yeah, thanks for having me,
Tell me a little bit about your background first,
Well, I inherited the station from my father,
who passed away a few months ago,
And before that I was a cartoonist living in Santa Monica,
And your station has seen a lot of platform changes
over the years, hasn't it?
Yeah, my father liked to move with the times,
And now you're an AM station playing alternative music,
Yeah, he felt that AM programming was moving
more towards the alternative crowd, so he thought,
you know, stick with them, and they're the loyal fans,
[Henry] What time is it?
3:45,
Here it is,
Wow,
It's really this bad,
[Casey] Yeah,
[Henry] I had no idea,
This was his life,
It's what he wanted,
[Henry] Look, let's get some sleep,
and come up with a plan,
come back at this in the morning, okay?
I can't sleep,
But this girl needs to,
Well, thanks for sticking around,
I appreciate it,
No problem,
Get some sleep, boss-man,
You're gonna need it,
Don't call me that,
(crickets chirping)
(clock ticking)
His dad never made us wait,
Hey, guys,
This is gonna be fun,
Hey, all right,
All right, thanks for coming down,
I appreciate you guys meeting with me,
I've been trying to get everything together
since my dad passed away, and I'm not really sure how
he kept this place going for as long as he did, you know?
Basically I have about two months' savings
to keep this place going, and what I'm thinking is
we gotta raise the rates and bring in the income,
Don't we need better ratings to be able to do that?
Yeah,
Well, I mean, you guys are the professionals,
I'm not gonna pretend like I know what I'm doing here,
so if you have any ideas,
Look, do we even have any money for like,
a promotional thing?
I'm not sure people still know we exist,
Lots of stations do it to get their brand out there,
You sponsor some shows, or--
How much would that cost?
[Ronny] A couple thousand,
Yeah, we could do a contest,
Okay, what kind of contest?
I don't know, you know, something that's memorable,
Hey, do we still own that billboard?
I have no idea,
Wait, what, we own a billboard?
You don't know about the billboard?
- No, - No,
Shit, my dad bought this billboard,
We built forts on it, yeah, whatever,
Go find out if we still own the billboard,
[Henry] Okay,
[Casey] It's on the Rothrock parking lot,
Yep, you got it, boss-man,
I got it,
We're gonna hold a billboard sitting contest,
[Jezebel] What?
Yeah, three, four people living on a billboard,
To win a prize,
That is the stupidest,
[Jezebel] Dude,
Craziest idea I've ever heard,
Okay, maybe it's crazy, but maybe it's crazy enough
to get people to tune in and save our jobs,
Okay, so it would be like reality TV, but on the radio,
Exactly, something like that,
It's pretty smart, that could work,
Thank you,
No, this is it, this is perfect, okay?
It could change radio,
(chuckling)
Slow down, Welles,
Orson Welles,
Yes, I know,
Anyway, it's gonna be a logistical nightmare,
I mean, a really big logistical nightmare,
but I don't have anything going on,
[Casey] So you're in,
I mean, yeah, I guess so,
Yep, you are the proud owner of a billboard,
Yes!
We're doing it,
Okay, we're gonna make this all-American,
inspirational, and, you know,
Like the fight for independence,
Independent radio,
Sure, I guess it's time to break out the tricorn hats,
[Announcer] WTYT 960,
Your only alternative rock AM station,
Thanks for coming out today,
It's great to see so many smiling faces out there,
I deeply appreciate all of the kind words
you sent me about the passing of my father,
It's really nice to feel the support of your community,
Well, as I look around today at the Lehigh Valley,
it's hard to not notice all of
the revitalization that's taking place,
Old mills being repurposed as tourist attractions
and cultural centers,
Well, we here at WTYT want to, uh,
want to rise from the ashes of our past
and become a phoenix of opportunity,
Ladies and gentlemen, we're here today
to announce the great WTYT 960 Billboard Sitting Contest,
(clapping)
This will be a--
[Announcer] Squeak out another victory against the--
Where four lucky people will live on a billboard
until only one remains,
To become a contestant, all you need to do is
create a profile and a video on wtyt960,com,
and the most votes you get, the person with the most votes
will become our contestants,
Let's see, we'll be accepting submissions
starting immediately, and the contest starts
on September 1st, so thanks again for coming,
Are there any questions?
Is this just some scheme to drum up listeners?
Look, we're trying to save the only remaining
independent radio station in Lehigh Valley,
and at the same time create some
great opportunities for people,
How?
Well, we're gonna be giving out prizes
to the remaining person,
Like what?
Like $960 thousand,
And a brand-new mobile home,
Let me get this straight,
Your AM station--
Alternative rock AM station,
Your alternative rock AM station
is hosting a billboard sitting contest
where people can win a mobile home and $960 thousand?
That's exactly correct,
I couldn't have said it better myself,
Can I enter?
Yeah, of course, just create a profile
on wtyt960,com and get your votes in,
Why this sort of contest?
We want to make radio fun again,
You know?
And we wanna give a couple people hope and,
you know, the opportunity to get ahead,
Isn't that what the American dream is all about, right?
(clapping)
All right, thank you guys for coming out,
really appreciate it,
Okay, so you heard it here first, folks,
This station, WTYT 960, is giving you, the listeners,
the opportunity of a lifetime,
And what's the response been from the public
about the contest so far?
Um, well, you know, I always feel like
you're gonna have people who love what you do
and others that don't,
but overall it's been really positive,
[Announcer] This is the morning grind,
$960,000?
Shit,
- Prize money, yeah, - Who's doing that?
- It's a radio station, right? - Right,
What kinda station is it?
Beats me,
Never even heard of it,
They're an AM station,
[Woman] Who listens to AM?
(laughing)
[Woman] Imagine what we could do with that prize money,
[Man] What would you do with it?
Where four lucky people will live on a billboard
until only one remains,
To become a contestant, all you need to do
is create a profile,
Why would I do something like that?
Well, haven't you heard about the big contest?
No,
Well, there's a contest going on,
and if you're the last one on the billboard, you win a home,
[Male DJ] Tamara, did you read the paper this morning?
[Tamara] And why would I?
[Male DJ] Well, it seems our so-called competition
has dreamt up a stupid contest to try and
get our listeners to tune into their station,
[Tamara] Oh, now what?
[Male DJ] Well, yeah,
These bozos over at WTYT are holding
a billboard squatting contest,
[Tamara] Are you kidding?
[Male DJ] Yeah, they're trying to get four birdbrains
to live on a billboard,
Have you seen this?
No, but I heard about it,
Let me guess, on one of our stations,
Everyone's talking about it,
For the last time, you only mention things
we're paid to mention, we only promote things
we are paid to promote,
This stops now, unless you can show me
a check from Lindeweiler,
My air costs money, baby,
[Male DJ] What has been your favorite XXX sighting so far?
I was just trying to be radio,
You were trying to be radio?
I was trying to be radio by saying 960 thousand,
you know, like our call letters, nine six thousand,
Not $960,000,
Yeah, but normal people don't understand that,
What are we gonna do?
We might as well just quit right now, this is insane,
Hey, I made some calls,
Hey, Junior, servers are down,
Like I was gonna say, news about the contest is spreading,
We hit the Philly and the New York pubs,
This may break national,
Yeah, that's great and everything,
but how are we gonna pay for this, you guys?
We're in the ratings basement right now,
and we're charging, what, like 20 bucks a spot?
So we add that all up, and what do we get?
We get like,
I don't know,
[Casey] Equals what, like, 300,
Chill, okay?
Just give it some time, let's just ride this out
and see what happens,
All this attention is bound to drive up ratings,
and then we can increase our rates,
Give it some time, don't make any official statements,
and just ride the buzz,
Okay, riding the buzz,
that's an absolutely great punchline,
Jezebel, you've actually been here longer than anybody,
What would my dad do?
He would ride the buzz, and he would use the press
to his advantage, and he would ignore
the pile of bills on his desk, so like father like son,
Oh my god,
Sounds like that's super great advice,
So I can't even talk to the press,
How are we gonna promote this, you guys?
Give me something,
You won't need to,
Just promote the real prize on the station,
and a week before the contest,
make a correction to the press,
Ah, so I lie to the press, that's the genius idea
right now, lie to the press,
Dude, wait, hold on,
It's not lying, the press screwed up,
We didn't,
We'll correct it, and it will be fine,
God, don't you know anything?
When they find out that we don't have
a million dollars, for instance,
what are the contestants gonna do?
They're gonna kill me,
No one's gonna murder you,
and people will still wanna be a part of this,
Trust me,
Why is there nothing happening in that booth right now?
Goddammit!
Dead air kills radio, Ronny!
Sorry about that, folks, boss-man needed some stroking,
(sighing)
(mellow music)
[Casey] To rise from the ashes to become a phoenix,
[Girl] I'm thinking about entering
that billboard contest,
[Girl] Yeah, me too,
[Girl] We should do it together,
Yeah, I'll have to ask my parents though,
Is your life really that bad
that you would want to live on a billboard?
Call into the station if you wanna talk about it,
Hey, can I trade this in for 10 more?
Thanks,
Ladies and gentlemen, gentlemen, we're here today
to announce the great WTYT 960 Billboard Sitting Contest,
960 thousand dollars, uh, this is a contest,
this is a contest, uh, uh, great,
[Female Reporter] Can I enter, can I enter?
Can I enter, can I enter, can I enter, can I enter?
Who on God's green earth would enter
a billboard sitting contest?
That's what I'd do,
I can be on that billboard, an I will win that contest,
There's no one out there that will beat me,
I guarantee you won't be disappointed,
'cause hey, that's what I am,
I am a contest winner,
Hey, I'm Emily,
I really want to be a billboard sitting contestant
just simply because I love reality, oh, that was bad,
This is the reason why I should be on the billboard,
First of all, I'm a pro sitter,
Now, you don't get this petite figure
by not being able to sit,
Plus, I'm a survivalist,
Listen, I wanna be on that billboard,
I mean, you always get all the attention,
Besides, you know contests are my thing,
And if it runs longer, then I'll just take a sabbatical,
It's gonna be absolutely incredible,
I want you to pick me for the billboard sitting contest,
I wanna do whatever it takes to win,
I'll drink my own urine,
That's right, I'll drink pee,
Out of a cup, out of my hand, I don't care,
I think people would vote for me,
'cause I'm just a little bit crazier than
the rest of the world, so that's entertaining, right?
Also, I'm a really good sitter,
In high school, I was voted most likely
to entertain herself on a deserted island,
and that's a true story,
Vote for Josh Richards Jr,
Josh, or however it's gonna come up there,
Because you gotta help me,
You're my only hope,
And you all know that I can claim that shit, right?
So what I want you to do--
Clark!
What?
What are you doing in my room again?
I was just, can I just get some privacy please?
I think it'll be fun, don't you think?
There's been a lot of excitement throughout the valley
as a local radio station is about to announce
the four contestants in their billboard sitting contest,
News 13's Pat Stevens is live in Allentown
outside the station,
I'm here outside the WTYT 960 offices,
and the buzz throughout the valley has been deafening,
Hundreds of people here waiting to see if
they're lucky enough to become a contestant
to live on the billboard and to win
$96,000 and a mobile home,
[Reporter] I thought it was a $960,000 prize,
Station spokeswoman Henry Lamarr corrected me,
saying there was a bit of confusion and that
station owner Casey Lindeweiler was trying to
sound more radio by saying that the prize
was 960 thousand dollars,
The prize for whoever stays on the billboard
the longest is $96,000, and the mobile home,
The four people who will be in the WTYT 960
Billboard Sitting Contest starting on September 1st
in the Rothrock Motor Sales lot are,
from Forney, Texas, Shelby Reynolds,
Cookstown, Pennsylvania native Josh Richards Jr,
Stop spritzing the eggs,
[Reporter] From Morristown, New Jersey, Clark Thompson,
And a lady from down the Delaware
in Bucks County, Ellen Snyder,
These are your four billboard sitters,
Congratulations to you all,
we're all excited to see what happens,
Mayor,
Hi, Patti,
What can I do for ya?
Are you really gonna let WTYT have
this little building sit without a zoning permit?
There's not even a record of Lindeweiler
even applying for this,
It's just a little contest,
Yeah, well, he's breaking the law,
Here,
And it would be so easy to have your competitor
on all of our stations leading up to November,
So I suggest if you want to get reelected, look into it,
And how's it going so far?
Give us a little status update,
Yeah, well, we started on September 1st
with four contestants,
[Ronny] It seems that Junior's in
a bit of a pickle, if you will,
Hey, everybody!
Woo!
Hey, thanks for coming out and supporting us,
We really appreciate it,
Well, I got some strange news right now,
Turns out I neglected to get a permit for this contest,
I mean, who woulda known that you had to get a permit
to get people to live on private property?
It seems crazy to me,
Anyway, I'm gonna say screw 'em,
(cheering)
Let 'em fine us!
Yeah, let's get this thing started!
All right, woo!
All right, thank you, Junior,
That's the way to keep that independent spirit alive,
Fight the man who's trying to keep you down,
I'm proud of you, boy, real proud of you,
So uh, where was I?
[Crowd] Seven!
That's right,
[Crowd] Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!
(cheering)
There you go, folks!
This is officially the beginning of the
Great WTYT Billboard Sitting Competition,
Who will win the mobile home and $96,000?
Well, you're just gonna have to tune in to find out,
(booing)
[Josh] Woo, XXX!
Hey, hey, come on,
Put your pants back on, man,
[Clark] That's a dickhead move,
No, youz just mad 'cause you didn't think of it,
(cheering)
Thanks, guys, thank you,
Thank you,
You know this is just the beginning, right?
Yeah, we gotta keep this up now, you kidding me?
Yeah, I don't think we got a bathroom up here,
I really gotta go,
For real?
Yeah, I had too much coffee this morning,
Is Mr, Casey still here?
Mr, Lindeweiler, how's we supposed to drop a deuce up here
if we ain't got a toilet?
Yeah, no, we're gonna bring it up this afternoon,
Hey, you didn't bring the toilets, are you kidding me?
You know what, I'm gonna go grab one right now,
I'll be right back, okay?
Look, make it quick, man!
All right,
(urinating)
Nice work on the zoning thing,
I give 'em a week,
(mellow music)
The pooper's here,
Great, that's awesome,
Hey, uh, are you cool?
Yeah, yeah,
Okay,
Thanks,
(phone chiming)
Hey, I'm headed out,
There you go,
Thanks,
When this all happened, I was in a bad way,
I lost my job, Jerry lost his,
We was living out of my '74 Cadillac DeVille,
Then they came to get Emmy,
[Casey] Hey, guys,
Mr, Lindeweiler!
Hey, call me Casey, please,
Mr, Casey, sir, when do we's eat?
Well, the pizza guy comes about 11 o'clock every day,
What, you didn't bring any food up with ya?
No, um,
No,
I'm sorry, man, I didn't bring anything for you,
No, rules is rules,
This is a contest,
You guys aren't gonna share your food with him?
[Clark] It's a competition, man,
All right, well, get some sleep, Josh,
There'll be pizza in the morning, all right?
Hmm,
It's really good,
I don't think I can finish it all, though,
(somber music)
(engine starting)
DJ Kat coming at ya,
Did you see who made it up on the billboard?
Can there be a more pathetic band of losers?
What are they thinking?
Who's gonna tune in to listen to that shitshow?
Good luck, so-called competition,
Nice knowing ya,
Having a starving artist, a wannabe, a hick,
and a stroke victim up on a billboard?
Imagine the stimulating conversation to be had there,
Great work,
You got two ladies here, you piece of garbage,
and you go and did a thing like that,
The dude's gone,
[Photographer] Smile,
Look down,
So have you been watching the contest?
No, what contest?
[Photographer] This contest, take a look,
Just hangin',
What is this?
Hey, youz got a couple bucks to get me some food?
I'm frickin' starving,
[Woman] I knew I was forgetting something,
I only got two bucks left,
I was gonna buy Emmy an ice cream with it,
You should get her an ice cream then,
I'll be all right,
I'm here live at the WTYT Billboard Sitting Contest,
checking in on contestants who have made it
one full week sitting on the billboard,
This has been a firestorm for station owner
Casey Lindeweiler, who is here with me now,
Casey, so how's it feel to have one full week down?
Well, it feels great, you know?
We feel like we've got a really positive response,
thanks to all the listeners out there,
and yeah, you should probably ask the contestants,
[Girls] We love you, Casey!
[Girl] Oh my gosh, he's so cute!
Well, quite the fan favorite,
What do you plan on doing about the city
trying to shut you down because
you don't have the appropriate zoning permits?
Well, I say, you know, let 'em fine us,
I mean, we're trying to do something for the community,
and if somebody down at city hall thinks that
we've violated some sort of archaic zoning code,
law, or something that like, you know, bring it on,
We've received some reports that
Shelby is pregnant up there,
Yeah, there was an argument about that,
[Interviewer] Were you providing her with the RU486?
What?
[Interviewer] The morning after pill,
Did you provide it for her?
No,
[Henry] Got a sec?
Yeah, what's up?
- I've got the trends, - And?
- We're up, - Really?
One point, second to last,
One point?
We did all of that press, and we're up one point?
The Hindi Channel is up on us,
I didn't even know there was
that many Indians in the valley,
We're improving,
These are generally weeks behind,
(phone ringing)
[Mayor] Hello?
Hey, Mayor, this is Patti over at Free Channel,
Why are those four people up on the billboard?
I thought we had an agreement,
What can I do if he's ignoring the law?
You throw him in jail,
How will that look?
I'm in the middle of a reelection campaign,
he has the community support,
Yeah, well, remember where your support
and your promotion come from,
We can easily blackball you,
This is Goss coming at you live
from the billboard sitting contest,
Congratulations, Josh,
you are WXEN Show Us Your XXX winner,
How do you feel?
I'm super psyched,
Finally, I'm a winner, and this is just a start, you'll see,
That on?
Hey, Emmy!
I love you!
(laughing)
Hey, Donna!
How 'bout it?
I'm gonna be a winner, woo!
Dude, WXEN is conducting interviews with our contestants,
So what?
So, Josh, he just won their stupid little contest
with that stunt he pulled,
Well, good for him,
But it was at our expense,
What do you want me to do about it?
I dunno,
Maybe do something, do anything,
I can't disqualify him,
If I disqualify him, we'll look like pussies, come on,
You can't disqualify him?
Well, for your information, he's wearing a WXEN t-shirt
on our billboard right now,
It's press, though, it's good press,
It'll be fine,
Don't worry about it,
You're a real jerkoff, you know that?
Real jerkoff,
Yeah, right,
Uh, yeah, hi, I'm calling about Clark,
the billboard contestant,
He carried a guitar up there with him when he
went up on the billboard, and it wasn't in his backpack,
They're allowed to have other stuff up there,
There's a picture in the Gazette that clearly shows him
carrying up a guitar with him when he went up there,
and on your website it states that you can only take up
what you can fit into your backpack,
Henry, where are you?
Are you listening?
I don't know about that, I'm gonna have to
look into that, okay?
Thank you,
Somebody just called in there saying Clark
carried a guitar up there that wasn't in his backpack,
Great, let's get him down,
How should we do it?
Easiest way possible,
Well, should we call the press or should we just do it?
Just do it, let's create some news,
All right,
We're going to the billboard,
[Shelby] Oh my god, hi, Casey!
[Casey] Hey guys,
[Josh] What are youz doing up here?
What's up, man, what can I do for ya?
Well, I hate to do this to you, but you're disqualified,
Really?
You out of your mind?
I've done nothing,
You gotta pack up your stuff, okay?
Get going,
Dude, step up, I haven't done anything,
You gonna make a big deal about this?
Oh yeah, he's gonna be kickin' and screamin'
like a little girl,
(laughing)
Dude, what did I do?
[Josh] Oh, like you don't know,
You carried your guitar up here with you,
Yeah, so?
[Casey] It wasn't in your backpack,
it's against the rules,
You're busting him for that?
I thought it was 'cause he was selling drugs,
Whatever, dude,
It's me and two girls, I'm gonna win, dude!
(shouting)
But you did know that one of the contestants
was selling drugs up on the billboard?
No, we found that out after he was disqualified,
we were completely--
[Interviewer] But weren't you filming the entire time?
No, actually, we have a solar-powered video feed
that's a bit shoddy, so,
So you missed that you had a drug dealer on the billboard,
Yeah, unfortunately,
We did,
We delivered a cease and desist letter
to Mr, Lindeweiler on September 1st,
the day that he started his billboard sitting contest,
because he did not apply for the appropriate zoning permits,
He decided to ignore the law, and now we have no choice
but to put an end to his contest,
Police Chief McLeary and the fire department
will be assisting in getting the contestants
down from the billboard by the end of day,
Thank you very much for being here,
What would WTYT's responsibility be to the contestants
if you're ending the contest?
I don't know the rules to his contest,
I simply know the laws of the city,
Which zoning law is he breaking?
Lindeweiler did not apply for a permit,
Will he be splitting the prize money among
the three remaining contestants?
You'll have to ask him after we get them down,
What permit would he have needed?
Who will get the mobile home?
I don't know, you'll have to take that up
with Mr, Lindeweiler,
Are you worried that the polls--
Will you answer my question, Mayor Jonson?
Oh, Janet, would you let it go?
I mean, if he continues to disregard the law,
we're just gonna have to cut him off,
What law is Mr, Lindeweiler breaking?
He didn't go before the zoning committee
to inquire whether or not he could hold his contest,
That wasn't my question,
What law exactly is he breaking?
Cindy, can you help me with this one?
Well, the zoning law states that no one can reside
in a commercially-zoned property,
What do you mean in?
There's squatter's rights, correct?
Or every homeless person could be arrested,
according to your law,
Well, if the property owner doesn't ask them to leave,
they're allowed to reside there,
Okay, mayor, when did Mr, Lindeweiler ask you
or the authorities to remove the contestants
from the contest he created?
Mayor?
Oh, oh, okay, Janet, you got me against the ropes,
and in the final round, at that,
I mean, there should be some compromise,
If Lindeweiler cuts the electricity
to all the contestants and stops feeding them,
then they can stay,
That way, according to your own research,
they would indeed be squatters, and thus could remain,
So you want them to starve,
Sometimes it takes a community,
We need to support one another,
(phone chiming)
Oh, shit,
[Henry] What?
Read this,
What's this?
Now they're cutting our electricity,
And we can't feed the contestants,
or they're gonna shut us down,
What, why would they do this?
That means the feeds are gonna go down,
how am I gonna know what's going on?
Casey, the monitors are solar-powered,
Just give me a second, I can spin this,
No, we can't spin this, this is insane,
We're gonna starve these people?
Um, we have lawyers here from the city
that need to see you now,
[Henry] I'll handle it,
[Jezebel] What did you do?
(somber music)
Ah, it's nice of you to show up,
[Shelby] People are saying you gotta stop feeding us,
What happened to the electricity?
Guys, listen,
Yeah, I got some bad news,
The city is not gonna let me
give you guys anything any more,
- What? - Why youz gotta stop now?
Well, it turns out I was supposed to get
some sort of permit from the zoning committee or something
to let you guys live up here,
We have to get down?
No, no no no, it's just that I can't, you know,
feed you guys or give you water any more,
Can you be a little more specific?
Well, it's kinda complicated, honestly,
We're not going nowhere,
you got all the time in the world to explain,
Well, it was explained to me like this,
You guys can stay up there,
because I own the billboard, right?
Only thing is, I gotta treat you guys like you're squatters,
You know, like you're homeless people,
So I mean, as long as I'm okay with it,
which obviously I'm fine, you can stay up there
as long as you want,
It's just that I can't provide for you
or I'm breaking the law,
But we're still in the contest,
You know, WXEN provides for me more than youz do,
Look, Josh, I didn't plan this, okay?
This wasn't my doing,
You just don't got a lot of friends, do ya?
It's the law, okay, what do you want me to do about it?
Okay, how am I supposed to communicate with people
if I ain't got a phone?
Well, I can bring you mail,
Are you serious?
What, are you thinking about getting down?
Hell no,
Everybody just calm down, okay?
What we're gonna do is we're gonna get
the community to provide for you, you know?
As long as it's not me, then it's not breaking the law,
and everybody loves you guys, so it's gonna be easy,
That doesn't even make sense,
Look, if youz want us all to get down,
then you gotta give us each a prize,
No no no no no, I don't want you to get down,
That's the last thing I want you to do, okay?
I mean, who's gonna win the 96k?
I am,
Fat chance,
We'll see,
Hey, I'm gonna work it out, okay?
Nobody's starving up there,
Yeah, okay,
We could create a contest like
a hunger drive to support them,
Fill up the truck or something,
Yeah, but how do we get the contestants food
if we can't even give it to them?
There's a fine line between us being in need
and actually doing something useful for the contestants,
What if we had a contest on social media,
and people go down and they take selfies
with the contestants and whoever gets the most likes
or retweets wins something?
Yeah, we could do that,
Yeah, 'cause people would be forced to
spread the word for us, and it would be
helping the contestants,
Yeah, we could have like, a flashy hashtag or something,
I dunno,
Sure, but what do they win?
That's right, bring the great WTYT 960
billboard sitting contestants a snack,
take a selfie at the billboard with the hashtag
support the WTYT 960 billboard sitters,
share it across social media, and you could win
a WTYT billboard survival kit,
[Announcer] WTYT 960, your only
alternative rock AM station,
[Casey] Hey, Jezebel,
[Jezebel] Yeah, what's up?
Can you come in here for a second?
[Jezebel] Yeah, what's going on?
Here, close the door,
[Jezebel] What's up?
Can you have a seat?
[Jezebel] Is everything okay?
Yeah,
[Jezebel] Am I getting fired?
No, no, are you kidding me, no!
Okay, then why am I here?
All right, actually, I have a really stupid question,
How do the advertisers know
when their spots are being aired?
I just don't know this stuff,
It's right here,
We send this at the end of somebody's media buyout,
This is their receipt, and they have the exact time
that their spot was aired, it's very simple,
Oh, cool, so we tell them,
[Jezebel] Yes,
Ah, cool,
[Jezebel] Wait, why?
No, I'm just, I'm just learning this stuff,
I'm just trying to figure it out,
[Jezebel] Well, I've gotta go on air now,
Yes, sorry,
So it's been something,
Just one more question though,
who at the station does the scheduling for the advertisers?
[Jezebel] J,C,, okay?
Have a great show,
You look great,
(door closing)
[Caller] WXEN, yeah, hi,
I gotta tell you, Leo, I'm a huge fan,
[DJ Leo] Thanks a lot, man, what can I do ya for?
[Caller] Have you seen what's been going on
up on the billboard?
[DJ Leo] No, as a matter of fact, I haven't,
Every time I've checked their feed is down,
and I just don't have enough time on my hands
to stay glued to my phone just in case
we've had enough sunlight to power their feed,
Or is it a hamster in a wheel that they use over there,
is that how they do it?
[Caller] Why do you gotta be like that, man?
[DJ Leo] Like what?
You're the one that wants me to talk about our competition,
(phone buzzing)
I believe in what you're trying to do, man, I do,
Thank you,
I appreciate that,
It hasn't been easy, that's for sure,
Look, there's no easy way to do this,
I gotta let you go,
We just can't keep you on the payroll anymore,
Do you understand?
The station's all I got, man,
I mean, what am I gonna do?
I'll give you a recommendation
wherever you wanna go, all right?
(somber music)
(crows cawing)
Your card was declined,
Seriously?
I'll just use the ATM, okay?
Talk to me!
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god,
Casey!
Oh, oh, god, Casey!
What's up?
Oh my god, this is, this is the logistical nightmare
I was talking about, Henry,
I'm telling you, I'm psychic,
I know when these things happen,
(phone ringing)
You're Casey, aren't you?
Uh, yeah, yeah, I am,
[Woman] Hi, I'm Bonnie,
Nice to meet you,
Can I buy you a drink?
- Yeah, yeah, sure, - Yeah, cool,
He's not answering,
[Jezebel] Boo, blurgh!
(laughing)
(phone ringing)
We're here at Rothrock trying to figure out
what happened to billboard sitter Ellen Snyder,
A Rothrock customer came to Miss Snyder's aid
when she passed out on the billboard,
according to the remaining contestants,
We have been unable to--
[Interviewer] And now you have two contestants left,
Well, Ellen was the next contestant to come down,
she had to leave because of, for medical reasons,
But I'm really proud of her for staying up there
as long as she did, you know?
She's a real testament to what the disabled are capable of,
[Interviewer] Meaning?
Just that people probably wouldn't have thought
she would have lasted as long as she did,
Doesn't that sound a little discriminatory?
Did you do all this just for ratings?
No, well, it's a contest, so it's definitely--
So all of this was a charade, just trying to make a buck?
No, absolutely not,
I wanted to provide something for the community,
you know, and give somebody the opportunity to get ahead,
which I think is pretty important right now,
And as well as save the last independent
radio station in Lehigh Valley,
[Interviewer] Okay, so this is about community,
not about playing with people's lives,
How is she?
How's Ellen?
Would you mind standing on that end
of the billboard, please?
Make for a better shot,
Yeah, I mind,
Any word on Ellen?
We're here at the foot of the WTYT 960 billboard,
Tragedy struck this afternoon,
One of the contestants, Ellen Snyder,
was rushed to the hospital after
suffering from severe dehydration,
The local authorities tried to shut it down
after the station didn't get appropriate zoning approval,
but the station owner, Casey Lindeweiler,
found a loophole around the law,
Now we've learned that the station isn't providing
food, water, or health care for their participants,
preying on the community to help them finish this contest
just so the station can profit,
To make matters worse, it was a Rothrock customer
who came to the aid of Miss Snyder,
The two remaining contestants on the board
didn't want to risk getting disqualified
for saving her life,
This billboard sitting contest is an awful spectacle
of the human condition, pitting people against one another,
[Interviewer] Have you supplied any medical care
to these contestants?
They've been up there an awfully long time,
It's only been four months, but we're certainly
looking out for their wellbeing, their health,
[Interviewer] Really?
Didn't Ellen Snyder come down because of dehydration?
Well, originally we were providing them with
water and food, it was actually the city
that stopped allowing us from doing that,
Hm, and why is that?
Well, they, it was some silly zoning code law,
Hey!
What?
The book is out,
Yeah?
We're number two,
Yes!
(laughing)
We did it, we did it!
Did you see the book?
[Patti] No, not yet,
You gotta be kidding me,
See for yourself,
WXEN is still number one,
Did you see this coming?
[Patti] After the last trends I pulled about a month ago?
No, they'd moved up one spot, to second last,
It's just an anomaly,
Let's hope so,
[Patti] They're an AM station,
No shit,
Corporate's gonna kill me,
In all my years in radio, I've never seen
a station move up this fast,
If we don't do something, they'll overtake WXEN,
What the hell is he doing?
Paying people to tune in?
Now that we know we have an audience,
we should get Josh and Shelby on air
saying how much they love the contest,
Hey, what if we got Josh and Shelby
some tablets, you know?
Great idea, but how are they gonna charge them?
We could pick them up at night, you know,
charge them, drop them back off in the morning,
You're a genius!
Now use that whole social media,
Who would've thought that Lindeweiler's kid
could run a radio station?
Nobody,
Maybe we should try and get the kid, though, huh?
It won't last that much longer,
Let's hope not,
But maybe we can push him a little,
Wait, though, we gotta just keep this up now,
We didn't just like, succeed,
we gotta actually like, get the prize
so that we can stay at the station,
you know what I'm saying?
And we will,
Keep on doing what you're doing,
I don't know what the fuck I'm doing,
(laughing)
Yes,
Hey, guys!
Day 50, you made it, huh?
Congratulations!
Gee, thanks,
Hey, I brought you guys a couple tablets,
I figured you can send 'em down to me at night,
and I'll charge 'em up, and I'll bring 'em back to you
in the morning, hoist 'em up,
Hey, I put a couple of Twitter accounts
on there for you guys,
I figure you can keep in contact with your fans
and your friends, you know,
Oh, I get it,
These are so we can promote the radio station,
Don't you think it's enough that we're up here, Casey?
Really, come on, that's bullshit,
Hey, I don't care what you think, I want mine,
No, look, I was just thinking you could,
you know, keep in touch with your family, that's all,
Do whatever you want with 'em, Shelby,
I mean, they're just presents, okay?
I been thinking about your business,
[Casey] Yeah?
You make money selling air, don't you?
Well, yeah, I mean, airtime, but something like that,
It sounds like a racket,
We gotta have people tune in for us to be,
you know, successful, so we've been in the ratings basement
forever, it's not like we're, come on,
You guys must be hungry, right?
- Yes, - Yes,
All right, I gotta figure out a way to
get you guys some food without anybody knowing about it,
We ain't gonna tell nobody,
Is we, Shelby?
I'll be back in an hour, I'll get you guys something,
(phone ringing)
Hello?
[Patti] Uh, yeah, hi, is this Henry Lamarr?
It is, and who is this?
This is Patti over at Free Channel,
Mr, Merrick would like to set up a lunch date
with Mr, Lindeweiler,
Why?
I'm not really sure why,
Well, I'll see if he's available,
and I'll call you at the station if he is, okay?
Hey, man, you got the beer on there too?
All right, this should be cash only,
I got this pending fraud case, so, all right,
This looks beautiful, man,
[Clerk] Ready to roll it, good to go,
(geese honking)
I feel like I recognize you, is that possible?
Seen you around?
[Man] I'm not sure,
I don't get around these parts much,
Hm, no, it'll come to me,
You know, you've done an awfully good job
with WTYT, son,
Thank you, yeah, it's been a lot of hard work,
Hard work and perseverance,
It pays off, my man,
Sure does,
[Waiter] Sir,
Ah, let Clarence taste,
Sir, the bottle of Chateau Potelle,
VGS chardonnay, 2013,
VGS,
Clare, you know what VGS stands for?
No,
Very good shit,
But taste it anyway just to make sure
it was stored properly,
Ah, yeah, that's great,
It's my first time trying shit,
So why am I here?
I have an offer for you,
[Casey] What is this?
[Rick] Look inside,
We'd like to buy your station,
I'm sorry, sir, it's not for sale,
(chuckling) Kid,
That's the most anyone will ever pay you
for a station in this market,
You could retire, go back to your comic book shit,
Well, no offense, Mr, Merrick, was it?
But you can go screw yourself,
I own the only independent station left in this town,
and I would rather run it into the ground
than let you buy my father's station,
And although my father wasn't as good a businessman
as yourself, he was a far better man than you and I
will ever be, so why don't you take your check
and wipe your ass with it?
How much did he offer you?
Three million dollars,
Casey, are you serious?
[Casey] Yeah,
[Henry] And what did you say?
I told him to go wipe his ass with his check,
That I own the only independent station left in this town
and I'm gonna keep it that way,
You have some serious balls,
So stupid,
But thank you,
[DJ] This weekend, it's trick or treat
for all the little kiddies in the valley,
and the big Allentown Halloween Parade is this Sunday,
Tomorrow, what are you going to wear
as you pelt the crowd with Dum-Dums?
[Tamara] I was thinking of a sexy scarecrow,
[DJ] Oh yeah, how sexy?
[Tamara] Sexy enough to land the station in trouble,
[DJ] Is this a rehash of the stunt you pulled
for our XXX contest that got us in hot water
with Rick Merrick?
[Tamara] Deep down, you know he liked what he saw,
[DJ] Well, I'm sure he did,
Speaking of our XXX contest,
I wonder how our big winner Josh Richards
is doing over at the billboard squat?
Anyone been by lately?
[Tamara] Beats me,
Josh just keeps begging for food,
[DJ] Is the parade route going anywhere near
the billboard squat?
[Tamara] Hmm, let me check,
No, looks like another day without food
for the WTYT billboard squatters,
Hey, how you guys doing?
I brought you guys some burgers,
You know, I been thinkin',
How do we know you got the money to pay us?
What do you mean?
Of course we got the money,
You said you was in the ratings basement,
You show me some bank statements that shows me
that you got the money to pay us,
And if youz got money, I'll stay,
but if you don't, I'm gettin' down,
All right,
Hey, what you guys don't know about
is we've been number two in the ratings
for like two months, we're doing great,
Everybody loves you guys,
Show me the proof,
What about the tablets I gave you guys, right?
Lower 'em down, I'll charge 'em up for you,
I don't want anything to do with them nasty people
saying nasty things about us, they don't even know us,
What are they saying?
You don't even wanna know,
Come on, it's the internet,
They got trolls and haters, don't worry about it,
I didn't sign up for any of that stuff,
What if my Emmy sees that?
You're living on a billboard,
Show me the proof!
I will, I will,
(tent unzipping)
(somber music)
[Interviewer] You feel powerful,
controlling the destiny of others?
No, not at all,
I mean, the contestants are free to quit at any time,
[Interviewer] But are they?
I mean, one's a starving artist
and the other can't even provide for his own children,
Josh only has one child,
and I'm pretty sure he's doing okay,
[Interviewer] We've heard that his wife's pregnant,
Well, I'll be,
Mr, Casey, you're almost a millionaire,
Well, my father took care of me,
[Josh] And I'm gonna do the same for my Emmy,
[Ronny] WTYT 960, the fastest-growing station
in the Lehigh Valley,
Hello,
Hey,
What's up?
We're down,
How is that even possible?
Where are we at?
We're fifth,
We've been doing all this cool stuff,
getting people to hashtag and all that jazz,
Living on a billboard is boring,
It's like watching grass grow,
(sighing) What do I do?
Well, I noticed that every time something crazy
or something exciting, something wild happens,
that listenership seems to spike,
[DJ] The heavily contested mayoral race in Allentown
is heating up after a knockdown debate last night,
Contender Elaine Di Bella seems to have
knocked Mayor Jonson off his perch at city hall,
after a number of exchanges regarding
WTYT's billboard sitting contest
and the mayor's ill handling of the contest,
Why is the contest allowed to continue?
Why was it even allowed to start in the first place?
Sounds like the mayor is deep into WTYT's pockets,
[Josh] Come back here, you cowards!
Let me tell you folks, we are shocked and outraged
that some people would put the lives of
our contestants in jeopardy,
while others would deface our billboard,
(somber music)
Hello, Casey, how are you?
It's nice to meet you,
[DJ] They've become a human spectacle,
more fitted for the Lehigh Valley Zoo than a radio contest,
At least the zoo would feed them,
The host of the billboard contest, Casey Linde-whatever,
should be ashamed of himself for profiting
off people who lack the brainpower
to make a decent decision,
I wonder how much money he's made
not providing for his contestants,
Is this some sort of scheme with the city
so he can profit?
It smells like something fishy going on,
Is collusion the new thing?
I would love to hear the thoughts of our listeners,
The Free Channel has gone negative,
trying to get the public to turn against us,
So now they're at us?
Yeah,
How are they getting their information?
Josh and Shelby's social media,
All right, let's go back at them,
Let's go back at them?
They have 20 times more listenership than we do,
They have 11 stations to our one,
Well, let's get these tablets out of
these stupid contestants' hands, all right?
We need to control the information,
Seriously?
Do you hear yourself, are you listening to yourself?
Yes, I'm listening to myself,
Find some money,
I'm doing my job, what are you doing?
You know, I'm gonna step away from you
before I say something I'm gonna regret,
You already did, good job,
You're great at that,
You're turning into one of them, Casey!
I'm sorry, all right?
(sighing)
This job is my life,
It's a paycheck,
I have one more thing I can do,
What do ya got?
[Henry] I have some friends at MSN,
Call 'em up,
A billboard sitting contest has cast a spotlight
on what used to be a poor, depressed town
in search of an identity that was crushed by a song,
It has become a tale of two cities,
the haves and the have-nots,
Independent radio against corporate radio,
Building community and being a lone wolf,
Late this past summer, a struggling entrepreneur,
Casey Lindeweiler, began a contest where four people
would live on a catwalk in front of a billboard
to win $96,000 and a mobile home,
75 days later,
I'm sure that you've reaped considerable benefits
and profits from this contest,
No, absolutely not, that couldn't be
farther from the truth,
You know, when I inherited this station,
it was drowning in debt, so we're still just scraping by,
[Interviewer] And all of this just to win a mobile home?
Yeah, and $96,000,
After this commercial break, we'll take questions
and comments from our audience,
Stick with us,
You're doing great, excellent,
[Man] Channel three, Mark Morris,
Hey, Mark, it's Rick over at Free Channel,
[Mark] Hey, Rick, how the hell you been?
What can I do you for?
Yeah, some storm we're having, huh?
[Mark] Yeah, real nor'easter, it's pretty bad out there,
Any idea how those people up on that billboard are doing?
[Mark] I didn't give it much thought,
Why do you ask?
The winds are beginning to turn against
Lehigh Valley radio station WTYT 960,
Now that winter is upon us, it doesn't seem like
the station has a plan for the contestants' welfare
in the billboard sitting contest,
We asked station owner Casey Lindeweiler of his intentions,
Mr, Lindeweiler, what are your plans
for the billboard contest this winter?
Just that we continue to be as successful
as we've been so far,
And what will you provide the contestants
in sub-freezing weather?
Well, unfortunately only what the city will allow us,
which is nothing, so thanks for coming by,
[Reporter] Mr, Lindeweiler,
(somber music)
[Casey] Unfortunately, only what the city will allow us,
which is nothing,
Thanks for coming by,
What in the hell were you thinking?
They completely butchered what I was saying,
That made us look really, really bad,
Like you don't care about them,
You know that's not true,
The lame duck mayor will do nothing,
City council will do nothing,
What more can the community do
to try and end the billboard sitting contest?
[Crowd] Quit, quit the billboard sit!
Stop the insanity, where's the humanity!
Quit, quit the billboard sit!
[Reporter] Protestors are picketing at the foot
of the billboard and outside the WTYT 960 radio station,
protesting the station's treatment
of their billboard sitters,
I told you, the press are provocateurs,
English, please,
Liars,
(phone chiming)
This is totally out of control,
We just have to go on like it's business as usual,
Do what we've always done, just ride it and spin it,
The truth will work its way out,
Yeah, but how much damage control can we do?
The sponsors are gonna start pulling their ads immediately,
[Ronny] Already started,
[Reporter] When will it end?
People are becoming outraged that
the WTYT billboard contest has been allowed to continue,
Well, obviously those people up there
don't have any common sense,
They are determined, aren't they?
The station oughta give them a heater or something,
Are these contestants that destitute
that they need to live on a billboard
in the middle of winter, or are they just
starved for attention like the man
hosting the contest, Casey Lindeweiler?
How low can he go?
Is he desperate, does he have a god complex,
or is he an attention-starved businessman
exploiting others for his personal gain?
Shame on you, Mr, Lindeweiler, shame on you,
[Reporter] So how do you feel about shutting down
this billboard sitting contest?
There's nothing I can do,
They're on private property,
and property owners have rights,
The next administration will have to do as they see fit,
(somber music)
[Tamara] Seriously, guys,
a community-implemented hunger strike?
We need to rise above this, people,
It's the freakin' holidays, don't let WTYT
bring the community down,
Take it easy, Tamara, just step away from the ledge,
just step away,
People can be so cruel,
They're up there under their own volition,
The billboard outside the WTYT 960 radio station,
protesting the station's treatment
of their billboard sitters,
Station owner Casey Lindeweiler isn't
providing his contestants any relief,
despite the freezing temperatures,
People are becoming outraged that the contest
has been allowed to continue,
You're Casey Lindeweiler,
Yep, yep, that's me,
How could you do that to those people?
How can you even live with yourself?
The contestants are free to leave at any moment, okay,
I'm not forcing them to stay there,
You're an asshole,
Yeah, and you believe everything that you see, don't you?
(phone ringing)
Hey, what's up?
Well, I just got a call asking
if you wanted to be on Wake Up America,
Wake Up America?
[Henry] Yes,
Why?
They want to interview you about the contest,
Look, you need to clear the air,
Remember, you're doing a good thing,
Just make people believe that,
Uh, all right, what time do they want me there?
[Henry] Uh, they want you there at one, that's okay?
Yeah, yeah,
Just text me the address, I'll be there,
[Henry] All right,
Thanks, Henry,
[Henry] Bye,
(sighing) Oh man,
Welcome back to Wake Up America,
We've been joined today by Casey Lindeweiler,
He's the creator of the WTYT billboard sitting contest,
We've got a live studio audience here,
and they've got some questions,
Sir?
How much money did you make exploiting these people?
What do you have to say about that, Casey?
I mean, with all due respect, sir,
I don't ask you your income, why should I tell you mine?
[Interviewer] Yeah, but we've got your ad rates
right here, and you've said this contest
has been going on for, what, four months now?
Yeah,
Okay, so let's take your lowest ad rate per week,
multiply it by 16, and you've got, what, a million dollars?
That's not true,
What about the FCC, are you worried about
the fines they may bring down on you for double-dipping,
you know, charging double for your ad space?
What are you talking about, that's not true at all,
That's what our sources have told us,
Why are you trying to make me look like I'm the bad guy?
You know why, because a good guy wouldn't
be taking advantage of people like this,
You know, all around the world there are contests
that are driving up ratings, it's a pretty common practice,
Nothing like this,
Well, maybe that's because it's so original,
You have no idea what I had to risk
to try to save this station,
You know, I wish you were asking me questions like that,
I mean, we're still drowning in debt,
Yeah, like most Americans, but they're not
taking advantage of people to pay off their debts,
Don't you think it's time to end this contest?
Quit pretending to be something that you're not,
You should be ashamed of yourself,
End this contest,
You should give them both the money, and a home,
End this contest, end the contest, end the contest!
End the contest, end the contest, end the contest,
end the contest, end the contest, end the contest!
[Interviewer] Do you have a response to this?
I was just trying to do something good for the community,
We need to take a break, we'll be back,
Mr, Lindeweiler, are you okay?
Casey, Mr, Lindeweiler?
Yeah,
[Assistant] Are you okay?
Yeah,
[Assistant] You're doing good,
Yeah, thanks for that,
[Interviewer] Wait, wait, Mr, Lindeweiler!
(mellow music)
Henry,
[Henry] In here,
You set me up, didn't you?
What?
You set me up,
What are you talking about?
I just went on national television and got destroyed,
so what did you say?
I really don't know what you're talking about right now,
Were you not watching?
What are you doing?
Why are advertisers calling
asking to see the traffic reports?
Because somebody in our office told them
that we're double booking our ads,
Well, are we double booking?
No!
Then where are the receipts?
I don't know, where are the receipts, Henry?
[Henry] You tell me, I don't know,
Where are the receipts, Jezebel?
What's going on?
You need to watch your tone,
Get outta here,
[Henry] Casey,
Get outta my face,
[Jezebel] Really?
Yes,
Oh, your dad would be so proud of you,
so proud, sonny boy,
Go home, go home,
I'm done, I quit,
Casey, what are you doing?
Who's gonna cover for her?
I will cover for her, you can cover for her,
Casey, have you lost your mind?
No, you think people listen for her?
Hey, what's wrong with Jez?
What, just go home, dude, just,
can you do your job, maybe?
Why are you talking to me like that?
[Casey] Just get outta here, all right?
[Ronny] Get outta here?
Yes, go home,
What, are you gonna like, fire me?
Yes, I'm gonna fire you, Ronny,
Go, go play with your computer or whatever,
You know what, this guy's a jackass,
and if you stand next to him,
then good luck with that, you're a jackass,
They're the reason we have listeners,
They've been here way longer than you have,
- They're the reason? - Yes,
- Are you kidding me? - No,
This radio station was dead before I came here,
The only reason anything happened is because
I started a billboard contest to save the radio station,
Do you remember, we're trying to save the radio station?
What are you doing?
I'm leaving, this is all about you,
Good, go, I don't need you,
Get outta here,
I believed in you,
(door slamming)
What the fuck,
(sighing)
Why did you leave me with such a mess?
What's wrong with you?
Dammit!
(screaming)
(sobbing)
(somber music)
Mr, Lindeweiler will be reading a statement,
Any other questions, please submit them to my office,
Casey?
On day 103, I'm here to announce the end
of the billboard contest,
I'm very proud of our contestants
for lasting as long as they did,
and I want to take the time to thank
our advertisers and sponsors,
The contestants will be receiving mobile homes
and splitting $96,000,
Casey, why not just give them both $96,000?
Because that's all we have,
I really did try to help this community,
and save my father's station, but I guess I failed,
Um, thanks to everybody who supported us,
and thank you all for coming,
- Casey! - Wait, Casey!
No more questions, any other questions
should be directed to my office,
- Casey! - Casey, just talk to us!
(flies buzzing)
What's your name?
[Woman] Adriana,
Adriana, cool,
Thanks for coming by,
Thank you,
Hey, how are you doing?
Hey, can I ask you a couple questions about your book?
Yeah, sure, go ahead,
So it ends with where are they now,
Do you have any regrets as to how the contest ended?
All the contestants are better off now
than they were before, so,
Are you?
Um, I wish I handled myself in a different way,
but you know, you live and learn, so,
I tried, I didn't really have business
running a radio station to begin with, and I failed,
so now I'll try to do something else,
To some, it looks like you're still
trying to profit off the contest,
I don't really care what other people think,
You know, I know what's true,
Do you?
Hi,
(rock music)
Hi, visit wtyt960,com,
No one said anything about streaming us,
You mean we's on the internet?
A little late for that, toots,
Hey!
Emily!
(rock music)
I wonder how they're streaming it,
I wonder if it's live?
No, up to my toes,
How are we gonna be able to practice?
I'll be able to throw down just fine,
Hey, Jack, the cable,
[Jack] I didn't bring it, dude, I'm sorry,
What?
I didn't bring it,
(laughing)
Why don't you just chill out?
[Clark] Oh, she speaks!
I'm sick of you running around like idiots,
Well, I do what I want whenever I want to,
Yeah, I bet you do, dick,
It's nice to know all that stuff Daddy left you,
(laughing)
He probably didn't leave it all at the road anyway,
Why wouldn't they bring it into the parking lot?
Hey, you did get a spike,
Shut up before I make you,
