I know some of you 5 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: are probably tired. Some of you, like me, did some 6 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 2: snow shoveling, some of you, like me, still have some 7 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 2: snow shoveling left to do. But welcome in everybody. We've 8 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: had a pretty good show tonight. During the first hour 9 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 2: we talked to first hour and a half, we talked 10 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 2: to representatives of Eversours, the Department of Transportation, the State Police, 11 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: National Grid, the MBTA, and Boston Globe mediurologist Ken mahon 12 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: talked to callers since and so what I'd like to 13 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 2: do is continue and finish out the hour talking tonight 14 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: about a couple of things.

I think we'll 21 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 2: have to call it the Blizzard of twenty twenty six. 22 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 2: And also your comment on the USA men's and women's 23 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 2: hockey team taking the gold medals, which again prestigious, prestigious 24 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 2: medals with great histories. And I guess the men's hockey 25 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: team or some of them will be guest of President 26 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: Trump at his State of the Union addressed one night, 27 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 2: which of course we will carry live here on Nightside, 28 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 2: and we will do a preview in the first hour 29 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 2: of what you expect him to say, what he should emphasize, 30 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: Is there something that he should say, Hey, we're going 31 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: to do better at this or is he going to 32 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 2: and why will the Democrats react? Also of the Democratic reaction, 33 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 2: so we get lots to talk about. If we are 34 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: prepared to give away maybe another one or two Nightside 35 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: T shirts if you have done something kind of special today. 36 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 2: We talked with Nick from Winchester earlier, and I guess 37 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: was the nine o'clock hour, uh, and Nick had been 38 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: kind enough to help out one of his neighbors. UH. 39 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 2: And it just is a really really good guy. Actually, 40 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: it was the top of the ten and he's dealing 41 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 2: with a medical situation that most of us would prefer 42 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: not to deal with. I think all of us were 43 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 2: prefer not to deal with. But he's going to beat it. 44 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: And I wanted to wear that T shirt next summer 45 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 2: on the beach, so six one seven six seven nine. 46 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 2: I was very proud of those hockey players yesterday, and 47 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 2: it made me think back to nineteen eighty and I 48 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: wish we had more of it.

It takes 111 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: a lot of good fortune and hard work to win 112 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 2: a gold medal in anything, but to win as a 113 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: member of a team that's it was extraordinary. Yesterday I 114 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: thought an extraordinary for the goaltender who played at the 115 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: University of Massachusetts at Lowell several years ago. A place 116 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: for the Winnipeg Jets. So you want to comment in that, 117 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 2: that's fine. And also if you want to comment, I 118 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 2: mentioned this thing in New York where you can go 119 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 2: to New York Sanctuary City and you can pretty much 120 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 2: get whatever you hold, ow, food, whatever, They'll take care 121 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: of you there.

Maybe someone can can explain to me 125 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 2: why it is not inherently inconsistent. Let me go to 126 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: Charlie and Sagas.

I think she said Stonehem, maybe she 139 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: said Stoton, but but lived in a different community. And 140 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 2: he looked up and found a couple of snow shovelers, 141 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: you know, kids, high school kids who are looking and 142 00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: I'm on on one of those you know, community build boards. 143 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: I'd just like to see what's going on in my neighborhood. 144 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 2: And there was someone on there tonight and someone was 145 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: saying that they wanted to shovel. There are enough kids 146 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 2: out there.

Okay, when you 150 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: were a young boy as well, and I just think 151 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: that there should be more kids who will do that. 152 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that they should do it for free, 153 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: but uh, you know, you had some people who treated 154 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: you really well today, which is great, but I. 155 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 5: Would think until after the yeah, well no. 156 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: What I what I felt was that if I was 157 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 2: living in a community and didn't have you know, support 158 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: around me, if I didn't have I don't know, you know, children, 159 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 2: or if I couldn't do it myself, I wouldn't mind 160 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 2: saying to a couple of local kids, hey, if it 161 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 2: snows more than you know, two or three inches this 162 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: winter every time, come over and do my driveway or 163 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: my walkway or the front steps, and I'll give you, you 164 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 2: know whatever, whatever the fear, you know, be a little 165 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 2: more generous than what would fear.

They would 231 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 6: stand on three separate tiers. 232 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 5: Yeah. 233 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 7: No, Look, the. 234 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: Olympics I think, beginning in nineteen eighty four in Los Angeles, 235 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: started to become big business. It was it was a 236 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: less You're absolutely right. As a matter of fact, I'll 237 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 2: tell you Jack that in my law practice, the longest 238 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 2: contract that I have negotiated for some one was a 239 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 2: former NHL coach and in nineteen eighty after Lake Placid, 240 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: they had what was called the Olympic Regional Development Authority. 241 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 2: It was called order in Lake Placid and negotiated a 242 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 2: ten year contract for this former NHL coach who became 243 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 2: the director of Order. And not only did he get 244 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: a six figure salary, which I thought was an incredible 245 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 2: amount of money at the time, but he also got 246 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 2: provided a car. And it was a ten year contract. 247 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 2: And I thought to myself at the time, and you'll 248 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 2: identify with this, I thought to myself, My god, nineteen 249 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 2: ninety is never going to come. Well, nineteen ninety is 250 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: now in the rear view of your rearview mirror, in 251 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 2: my rearview mirror, and it's a far distant past.

We 592 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 7: have many departments on our head. We don't have to 593 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 7: live through departments. We are just stumbling through. I was 594 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 7: the high school teacher for forty five years. Then you 595 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 7: can tell my students don't be afraid to make mistakes. 596 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 2: That's a very important lesson. What was your uh what 597 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 2: subject did you teach in high school? 598 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 7: I taught American history, American history, and I'm tart in with. 599 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 2: You know something, h I'm not surprised because I think 600 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 2: that we have undervalued history in high school for a 601 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 2: long time, and we certainly have undervalued civics. 602 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 7: And may I may I offer this through. Yeah, we 603 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 7: have undervalued joography. 604 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I used to have a couple of teachers, 605 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 2: professors from Bridgewater State now Bridgewater State University, who used 606 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 2: to commit in studio and we do things on geography. 607 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 2: You're absolutely right. When I was a TV reporter, Hank, 608 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,719 Speaker 2: one of the things I like to do whenever there 609 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 2: was some crisis. I remember when the Iranian hostage crisis 610 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 2: occurred in nineteen seventy nine, I took up a big 611 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 2: you know, a globe, you know the globe that you 612 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: used to have in a classroom, and I would go 613 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 2: to a shopping mall with my camera crew and I 614 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 2: ask people if they could find Iran on the map. 615 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 2: Albody knew, we're iron That's a joke. 616 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 3: That was. 617 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 2: It just showed there are other countries around the world 618 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 2: who know much more about history and geography than we do. 619 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 2: And those those are subjects history, geography, and civics, which 620 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: should be part of the kill him in high school, 621 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 2: and they're not. 622 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 7: Absolutely. I agree with you wholeheartedly. When I taught history, 623 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 7: my department had was very generous. He got me a 624 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 7: whole bunch of globes and maps. If you look like 625 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 7: a globe on a good size globe and you look 626 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 7: at Greenland, you can see why President Trump and I'll 627 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 7: finishly independent like you are in w Z. If you 628 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 7: look at the globe, you can see why Greenland is 629 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 7: so important. 630 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, there is and and and that. That's not a 631 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 2: political statement. That is just an obvious observation geography and 632 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 2: location and and all of that. Do I think that 633 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 2: Trump has handled it well? No, but but I think that, 634 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 2: uh that there should have been some conversations with Denmark, 635 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 2: and we had Alan Leventhal, the former ambassador US Ambassador Denmark, 636 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 2: on a couple of times around that time. So look, Hank, 637 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 2: I so much appreciate your colin, and I appreciate the 638 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 2: fact that you were a history teacher. I had a 639 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 2: teacher in the ninth grade at Boston Latin School. I 640 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 2: mentioned his name before. I'm sure he's no longer with us, 641 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 2: mister Doherty, who taught CIVIX. I had no idea what 642 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 2: civics was, but he lit a fire in me that 643 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 2: burns to this day about better understanding the Constitution and 644 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 2: the Federalist papers and all of the things that are 645 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 2: kind of the basis of this country, which I think 646 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: of very much understood by students today. 647 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 7: Well, then, Ray, I can see you're an educated man. 648 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 7: You when you speak, you pronounce all dervolvels. 649 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 2: I tried. 650 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 7: You don't cut the easys off.

Boston Latin went downhill when 655 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:03,919 Speaker 7: I became democratic. 656 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if they became democratics, I mean politically, politically. 657 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,320 Speaker 7: I mean letting too many people in to Boston Latin 658 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 7: because they had to represent all different kinds of groups. 659 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it has become very We've talked about this. 660 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 2: We've talked about this before. What bothered me was not 661 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,760 Speaker 2: so at all the diversity. We had fairly diverse class. 662 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 2: I went to a much more diverse class at Boston 663 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 2: Latin School in the nineteen sixties than people would realize. 664 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 2: We're a lot of Jewish kids, a lot of kids 665 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 2: from different parts of the city. Not a big representation 666 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: of minorities, but some of the smallest and the best athletes. 667 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 2: And one one gentleman who's now is a brain surgeon 668 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 2: that that I know of.

So 709 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 2: tomorrow night we will have President Donald Trump stop by 710 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 2: at nine o'clock. At eight o'clock to mor night, I 711 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 2: want to hear from you and think about this. What 712 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 2: do you want president to emphasize? He will talk about 713 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 2: a variety of topics, but on the State of the 714 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 2: Union address, the question always is what has the President 715 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 2: chosen to emphasize that's important? And then we'll listen to 716 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 2: the president's speech. We'll also listen to the Democratic reaction 717 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 2: to the speech. I'm not sure who's speaking for the Democrats. 718 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 2: I suspect it might be, Oh, the governor of Kentucky, 719 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,760 Speaker 2: maybe the governor of Pennsylvania. I think it'll be a governor, 720 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 2: and I think it'll be a more moderate tone. Let's 721 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 2: put it like that, and then we will get reaction 722 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 2: for the balance of the night from his speech. We 723 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 2: then later on during the week, we're going to be 724 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 2: talking with a couple of guests we had. We were 725 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 2: supposed to have Dan Voroni on tonight talking about the economy. 726 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 2: He was a guest we had on a couple of 727 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 2: weeks ago in the eight o'clock hour. He will join 728 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 2: us on Thursday night and on Wednesday Night Guy Winch. 729 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 2: He was also a guest from the eight o'clock hour 730 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 2: and his subject was mind over grind. How to basically 731 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 2: have your mind win over grind? All right, little disappointed 732 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 2: that more people were interested in the USA men and 733 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 2: women's hockey team tonight. That is what I truly believe. 734 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 2: I think many of you could have picked up the 735 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 2: phone and complimented those young athletes. Disappointed, I will be Frank. 736 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:28,280 Speaker 2: I will still do a nightside update postgame right after 737 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 2: the show.
