Have you met Ned's family?
Of course! Reconnecting with Ned really was an incredible side effect of moving to Punxsutawney, and being in Ned’s life means being around the kids. I had never been a kid person, not because I hated kids, I just wasn’t good with them.
But the Ryersons are different. They’re fun kids and I love being around them, even though they really know how to keep a guy on his toes. And I know that Ned liked having a willing babysitter nearby.
do you keep in contact with your family?
That's a bit of a gray area. I talk to my mom because she's a hard person to avoid. I sided with the "wrong side" during a family argument and they haven't "forgiven" me for it. I'm not exactly sorry thought. I'm happier because of my decision. Even though my father refuse to talk to me and my sister probably has my face on a dart board, I have a different family now and no regrets.
What kind of music do you listen to?
I’ve always been a classic rock guy, but when I learned to play piano I started listening to classical and some modern pop to practice. It’s just sort of eclectic now. (And I’m always welcome to suggestions)
In that last answer you said you're busy with school, what are you going to school for??
Psychology. Something happened that drew my attention to the fact that there wasn't really an actual mental heath professional in Punxsutawney... for people. So I thought this would be the best way to change that. I was able to test through a bunch of classes, but it's still a doctorate.
You moved to Punxsutawney, huh? Makes sense you'd want to stay somewhere familiar, at least for a while in order to transition. Do you do a lot of traveling these days, now that the world is open again? How about seeing the ocean?
It wasn’t for a transition. I tried going back to Pittsburg and continuing the show, but I really do love this place and the people in it. I spent a lot of time with them, and unlike people back at the studio, the people in Punxsutawney genuinely want to know how you’re doing when they ask. It’s nice, something I didn’t really appreciate for a while.
I’ve been to the ocean a few times, the lake many more since I’m closer to Erie now. I’ve been a little busy with school to really see the world, but I have time.
Hey Phil!! Do you still keep in touch with Fred and Debbie?
Of course! It’s hard to fall out of contact with people who are determined to be your top two streaks on Snapchat. Honestly they’re great people and since I moved into town it’s nice to have them as friends. They’re really some of the only people who don’t question…. well certain things about me.
How are you and Rita doing??
Rita and I are doing great. We’re just not together anymore. There were things between us and when I moved back to Punxsutawney… well long distance isn’t the best for a romantic relationship, but we’re still great friends. Hard not the be after all we’ve been through together.
you don’t protect your heart by acting like you don’t have one
Welcome Woodchuckers, fans of Good Weather, and people who stumbled upon this by chance. After the show ended suddenly I thought people might want a little insight into how I've been doing, so the ask box is open and I'm all set to answer any questions you guys might have. -Phil
