Hello, hey Scott, it's Kenny Malone from Planet Money. How are you?

Give me a second.

Just want to clean the phone for the 50,000th time.

Scott Wapner is a TV host on CNBC.

You know, the Consumer News and Business Channel.

Seriously, CNBC actually stands for Consumer News and Business Channel.

It's true.

And when we called Scott, he was, in fact, at the headquarters of the Consumer News and Business Channel.

That is why you might hear people mumbling about, I don't know, oil futures in the background.

He called Scott because of something that happened on his show a couple of weeks ago.
