My Conversation with Gayle

Okay so here's part two: I got the call and I was put on hold to speak with Gayle and I'm trying to breathe deeply to control my nerves. I was told that I would be on hold and that I would be able to hear Gayle's opening monologue and then the caller portion would come on. Gayle of course was hilarious without even trying; she talked about Paul McCartney's unfortunate situation with his upcoming divorce and a new energy drink called Enviga by Coca-Cola.
The portion about the Enviga drink was so funny because I had already heard her talking about this drink before and she had talked about how someone described the drink as something that had been strained through a shoe. Even still Gayle tried all three flavors of the drink on air. I can only tell you that the whole scene was too funny. So after the opening monologue, one of the producers come on and ask me what question I have for gale and then I am informed that I will be the first caller. The next voice I heard was from Ms. Gayle King herself in a cheerful tone say "Hello Nicole". I told her that I loved the show and that I heard that she called her daughter "Kirby Cakes" and that I called my daughter Kakes. She sang a song on air that she used to sing to her daughter. We also talked about the Enviga drink which was funny and then my question: If someone were to read the story of your life what would be the most interesting chapter? Gayle's answer was that anything that had to do with her children would be the most interesting part of her life. She said that her business was quite fickle and that she knew what was real and that is her children. And then we said goodbye.

I listened to Gayle's show as I do everyday and lo and behold I heard myself on the radio that following Tuesday. The conversation had been cut a little but I was just blessed that I got the opportunity to speak to her at all. And guess what???

I've talked to her again!! I can't even believe how blessed I am and neither will you after my next 2 posts! So my next post will be about how I got to talk to Ms. Gayle King for the second time... Keep watching out for it.
