In Episode 4 of Wease Family Circus, legendary Seattle broadcaster BJ Shea joins the family for one of the most honest conversations the show has had so far.

BJ tells the true story behind a moment that stopped everyone in the room cold. He eventually learned that he had been hired for a major radio role as a contingency plan, based on the belief that Wease might not survive cancer. When Wease did survive, the plan quietly changed, and BJ was left dealing with the fallout long after the decisions had already been made.

The episode pulls back the curtain on how radio really works when careers, contracts, and corporate strategy collide with real life. It is funny in a way only uncomfortable truth can be, and heavy in the way stories like this usually are.

BJ and the family dig into:

• What it feels like to discover you were someone else’s backup plan

• The human cost of behind-the-scenes radio decisions

• Loyalty, integrity, and survival in a business that rarely slows down

• How moments like this shape careers and people forever

It is raw, surprising, and deeply personal, with laughs coming from places you would not expect.

Be on the lookout for bonus content at the end of the episode, where the conversation keeps going after you think it is over.
