| 0:00.0 | What is up everybody? Welcome back to Cooper stuff. We have a seriously sick episode today. We have two special guests. Number one, we've got my wife. |
| 0:18.0 | The introvert has landed. We're going to make her speak today. She's not comfortable, but we've got a huge special guest. I am so very excited. I'm going to let her kind of give her own bonafies because she's done way too much, but I will say I know her most from the best show on TV as a co-host on the five, which is on Fox News, which I love. So here she is Dana Perino. |
| 0:46.0 | Thank you so much for having me and I'm glad that we got the introvert. I'm actually have a thought about that that I would maybe share in this interview. |
| 0:55.0 | So thanks for having me. I think that the thing you might not know about me is that when I was in college, I worked at KCCY FM 96.9 in Pueblo, Colorado. |
| 1:08.0 | And I was a country music DJ working overnight for minimum wage because back then you really needed to start in radio if you wanted to get into television. |
| 1:18.0 | And I didn't want to put in my time after graduation. So I did it on the weekends. |
| 1:23.0 | And that was the year that Aiki breaky heart was the number one song. I will tell you I played that song so many times. I still have it in my head. |
| 1:35.0 | I was like, well, I'm born in Wyoming, grew up in Colorado. I wanted to be in media in news. But then I think I just kind of fell out of love with it. |
| 1:49.0 | And I wasn't sure if that's what I wanted to do. And I was a lot of anxiety about changing my direction at that time. |
| 1:56.0 | When you're young, you think that if you don't pursue that particular dream at that time, that it'll be over. And I never thought I'd work in television. And here I am. |
| 2:07.0 | As you said, I get to be the co-host of the five. I also co-anchor America's newsroom. It's a news show from 9 to 11 AM with my very wonderful co-anchor, Bill Himmer. |
| 2:16.0 | And I get to do a lot of things here at Fox for elections and things like that. Podcasts. And then I wrote this book that I just put out called Everything Will Be Okay. |
| 2:28.0 | Life lessons for young women from a former young woman. |
| 2:31.0 | Yes. |
| 2:33.0 | It's a great title. Yeah. So spoiler alert. Probably Cooper. So fans already know. I love politics. |
| 2:41.0 | And we got to go. The fans might not know this. We got to go be a guest at the five one time and got to meet all of you guys, which was one of our coolest things. |
| 2:52.0 | We don't know. |
| 2:54.0 | Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This is like we love the five. It's my son's green saver on his phone. The picture. |
| 2:59.0 | Who was there that day? |
| 3:02.0 | I heard of that song, which she said, I spilled which is one of my man crushes. I love gray gut failed. I don't actually have man crushes. But you get it. |
| 3:11.0 | Katy was there. |
| 3:12.0 | Katie. |
