Sungold: programs we were interested in. Plus it was ongoing assistance we could call upon when needed at no cost to us.
Dez: I hear The Who, I think
Sungold: They were only three and five year old children
Sungold: So sad
ProducerBadBob: Redding California. Cash Cow for Consultants, I swear.
Sungold: Very concerning that with all the people they pay big money to, we have to use so many consultants...they are simply lazy!
ProducerBadBob: A cynical person would ask if any of those funds are being kicked back...but that would be a cynical person. God knows that's not me.......
