As the CEO of my home, running a household means knowing who to call.
For power, you call an electrician.
Pipes, a plumber.
And for better water, you call Culligan.
They've been improving water for 90 years, with local experts handling everything from water softening to filtration with the world's most efficient systems.
And with so much on my plate, it helps knowing I can trust one partner for everything my water touches.
Hey, Culligan.

Do I have, like, a cough button on here?
Well, no, you probably just, there's probably a button at the top of your fader that you can mute.
Found it!
Hold it, do that again, and then talk.
Oh, okay.
Hello, hello, hello, hello.
I still hear you a little bit.
Really?
Yeah.
Turn your fader all the way down and make noise.
That's quieter.

Tricky engineers.
You're going to go blind.
You ready to start this show?
We don't plan that, folks.
Yes, let's begin.
Are you ready to begin?
Mm-hmm.
Yes.
Mike O'Mara, Radio Entertainment.
Hey there, this is Katie with a very hateful thought of the day.
I hate waking up tipsy from the night before.
Oh, no.
There is something to be said about how a box of wine is deceptively delightful as you have no idea how much you had.
It should also be noted that drinking a wine called black box is a good indicator your life is about to run off the rails.
Unfortunately, this black box doesn't keep records to let you know exactly how much you've had to drink.
Waking up still tipsy from the night before is a good way to avoid a hangover.
But it's running the hot cycle and washing machine right before you step in the shower.
Ill-advised.
