00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 1: how you do it.

7
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 2: All It's okay. I like doing this, you know something.

8
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: I was telling somebody this at my house on Sunday,

9
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 1: you know, because you know, sometimes I like to poke

10
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: fun at you and we have each other don't really

11
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: it's fun. But I really had a new appreciation for

12
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 1: what you do when I shot your TV show.

13
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 2: All right, you co hosted a show this past summer.

14
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: Like we do this radio show, which is a lot

15
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: of work. We get up early, it's a lot of work.

16
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 1: Then you leave and you shoot TV all day. You

17
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: have to drive to where you're going, oh yeah, set

18
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: up the cameras and then be the host and be

19
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: entertaining and then drive home.

20
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 2: And usually every episode, whether it's Dining Playbook or Meet

21
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 2: Boston by the Way on nesson Saturday mornings at nine

22
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: and nine thirty back to back. But whenever I was

23
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: shooting an episode, it's multiple locations, right. You have to shoot,

24
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 2: you have to create the segment, do the piece and

25
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 2: then strike the set, pack everything up, and the crew

26
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 2: takes it to the next location, finds a parking space,

27
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 2: and then they have to carry it in reset. We

28
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: do a segment at that location, break it down, pack

29
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 2: it up, move to the third location. Usually four times every.

30
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: Homer Soode God, oh yeah, yeah, I it's new appreciation

31
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: for what you do. And think about this too. There

32
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: is a whole group or audience of people that don't

33
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: listen to the radio show. Don't listen to you on

34
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 1: the radio show, just watch you on TV. That's what

35
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: they know you as. That's interesting.

36
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. And by the way, if you're one

37
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 2: of those people, I just want to let you know. Yes,

73
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,200

74
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: Man. You know, I've never been a camper guy. I

75
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 2: don't like it, you know. When my boys, although I

76
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: will say this, at one point in your life, you're

77
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 2: going to start thinking about, Hey, wouldn't it be cool

78
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 2: to take the kids in an RV and you go

79
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 2: to like the Grand Canyon and all that. So other words,

80
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 2: you'd fly to the West Coast, rent the RV there.

81
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 2: You don't have to, you don't want to drive it

82
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 2: across country, rent the RV there, and then just tool

83
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: around for a week.

84
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would do something like I thought about.

85
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 2: That seriously for years and when boys were growing up,

86
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: and I regret to this day that I didn't do it.

87
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: Well, you are a big boat. You are a big boater,

88
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: so when you're camping on the water, right, So I'm

89
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: sure a lot of your vacations were spent on the boat.

90
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 2: Right.

91
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: So I brought up the TV thing Bill because today

92
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: typically you have your food show, but you don't. You're

93
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: on DZ Food for Thought. So I mentioned that Bill's

94
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: the busiest guy I know. Yeah, how about this picture?

95
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: This Okay, So a day like today, he does not

96
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: have TV, and you don't have the food show after

97
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: the radio.

98
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: Show nobody busy news radio.

99
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 1: So Bill considers this a day off.

100
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not even eating. You can ask my

101
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 2: wife Michelle, if all I have in the day is

102
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: the morning show. My brain thinks of it as a

103
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 2: day off. That's crazy, because you know, the Morning show,

104
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 2: we just have a ball. What do we do? We laugh,

105
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 2: We make people laugh for a living, and we change in,

106
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: you know, information, some of it valuable and important, some

107
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 2: of it nonsensical and funny. Right, you know, we'd like

108
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 2: to provide an escape with the billion Lisa the morning

109
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 2: show in the morning, so you know, coming in early,

110
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: I like the early hours. You know, those are my

111
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 2: favorite hours of the day typically. So if I'm just

112
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 2: coming in for the Billy and Lisa show on Kiss,

113
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 2: it's a day off.

114
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: Okay. So what's in the agenda for your big day off?

115
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 2: Nothing? Okay, I'm going to pick up Titus. He's a

116
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 2: good boy.

117
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's the best.

118
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 2: I'm going to pick up Titus. Give me shell of

119
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,120

00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 2: home all day with Titus and walking him and whatever.

Speaker 1: that goes back especially during Prohibition.

148
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,599

00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: through Chilestown and I drive right by the projects.

172
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the massive project.

173
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I spent some time there.

174
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: That's in those projects.

175
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: Oh, that's where I used to cop drugs. There was

176
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: a period in my life where I used to.

177
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 2: Get Yeah there, please, I have to drive through there

178
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:25,679
Speaker 2: every morning.

179
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: Oh god, this is years ago. This is this I've

180
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: been clean a long time.

181
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 2: By the way, they knocked two or three of them

182
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: down and built a brand new one right in the

183
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 2: middle of all the others. And I guess the plan

184
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 2: is eventually, uh, to knock all of them down and

185
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 2: rebuild them. These beautiful places for these folks to live.

186
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 2: I mean, it's awesome.

187
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,400

210
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: onto the Orange Line down to Bunker Hill, got off

211
