1
00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local.

2
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: News forty six degrees in Boston. It's eleven o'clock. Good morning,

3
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 2: I'm Nicole Davis. Here's what's happening starting in Geneva, Switzerland,

4
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,240
Speaker 2: where talks between Ukraine and the United States are expected

5
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 2: to keep going as President Trump tries to move toward

6
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 2: a speedy end to the war in Ukraine. Here's ABC's

7
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 2: Ian Pannell.

8
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: The high stakes meeting hastily organized after President Trump pressured

9
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: Ukraine to accept a twenty eight point peace plan that

10
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: would have handed over even more Ukrainian land to Russia

11
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: and slashed its military. Trump initially demanding a response before Thanksgiving,

12
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 1: but that deadline appears to be pushed back after US

13
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: negotiators hailed great progress in narrowing differences with the Ukrainians.

14
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: Now, President Trump said on social media that quote something

15
00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 2: good might just be happening following yesterday's talks. One of

16
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 2: the regions major healthcare systems is reportedly luring away much

17
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 2: needed primary care doctors from another major provider. According to

18
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 2: The Globe, over the past year, Mass General Brigham has

19
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 2: now lost at least eighteen PCPs to Beth Israel Lahy Health.

20
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 2: In the latest, five doctors and a nurse practitioner are

21
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 2: leaving Mass General Brigham to go to Beth Israel Lahy.

22
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 2: Both offices are in Medford. Now. Primary care doctors are

23
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 2: very hard to find these days, but The Globe reports

24
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: this could be especially tough for Mass General Brigham as

25
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: the defections could lead to millions of dollars in losses.

26
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 2: The move comes after months of criticism from Mass General

27
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 2: Brigham primary care physicians overpay and benefits, case load sizes

28
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 2: and the amount of support staff they get. The move

29
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,199
Speaker 2: is expected to more than double the number of providers

30
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: in Beth Israel's Metford office. Mass General says it's been

31
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 2: making moose to focus on its PCPs, making a commitment

32
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 2: over the next few years to invest hundreds of millions

33
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 2: of dollars. Thanksgiving just a few days out, and that

34
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 2: means right now Turkey prep should be underway.

35
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 3: Getting everything prepped and ready for Thanksgiving can be stressful,

36
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: especially when it comes to the Turkey, but it helps

37
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 3: to have someone on top of things.

38
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 4: At my house we're hosting. I should say my mom

39
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 4: is hosting at my house because she's there doing all of.

40
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: The work, which is great for Gene, who's traveling back

41
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: to the DC area after visiting Boston.

42
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 4: She sent us pictures this weekend of things that she

43
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 4: was already prepping and buying and kind of getting things.

44
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 3: Ready, including the turkey, which began thawing out on Sunday.

45
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 3: It's something Luca, a foreign exchange student from Italy, is

46
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 3: looking forward to. Yes my first time IC on Thanksgiving.

47
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 5: I'm so excited about that.

48
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 3: I can't wait to spend time with my US family

49
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: and try the turkey. So I hope that we're not

50
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:47,119
Speaker 3: going to burn it, honestly at South Station, James Rojas WBZ,

51
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 3: BOSTON'SNOOS Radio, and.

52

Speaker 2: You know the roads are going to be packed as

53
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 2: people try to head to Grandma's house. Tuesday and Wednesday

54
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: expected to be the worst days this week, and when

55
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 2: it comes to the forecast, it is a pretty good

56
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: one for the next couple of days. If you've got

57
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: errands to run, got to go pick up all that

58
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 2: pie stuff and everything you need for your side for

59
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: your Thanksgiving table, maybe the bird itself, who knows. For today,

60
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 2: we've got plenty of sun out there, temperatures approaching fifty

61
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 2: for the high today and so far most of us

62
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 2: are in the forties seeing if you thirties though, if

63
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 2: you're in the Berkshires then for tonight clear early, but

64
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: we'll have clouds moving in later on, with a lone

65
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 2: near thirty five in Boston, upper twenties of year inland.

66
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: For tomorrow, it will be a gray day and we've

67
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 2: got a high about fifty with rain moving in at night,

68
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 2: a little bit of a warmer evening than we're used

69
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 2: to these days. Tuesday into Wednesdays we've got temperatures rising

70
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 2: overnight and then Wednesday a couple of showers around for

71
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 2: your travel day, a high near sixty. Turkey Day itself, breezy,

72
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: plenty of sun and we've got a high just about fifty.

73
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 2: Right now. We're looking at forty five in Lemonster, forty

74
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: four in Danvers, forty five in Hingham. In Boston at

75
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: eleven oh five it is partly cloudy and forty six degrees.

76
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: A talent beyond compare on the North Shore the ability

77
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 2: to predict eel migration. WBC's Matt Cheer explains.

78
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 5: Man from Ipswich is pretty much guessed how many baby

79
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 5: eels swam up Mill Brook from the ocean and into

80
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 5: Mill Pond in Rockport. His name is Christopher Weegel, and

81
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 5: the prognostication earned him some serious props. Plus eight hundred

82
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 5: and fifty bucks were raised by supporters for the town's

83
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 5: Eel Raffle fundraiser. It's a real thing. Legal guest four

84
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 5: hundred eighty eels. The actual number was four hundred eighty one.

85
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 5: The data collected is used by state and federal officials

86
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 5: to better understand migration patterns and the population status of

87
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 5: the American eel. Matt Sheer WBZ, Boston's news radio.

88
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: More you Know around Boston, it appears that more of

89
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 2: us care about the sides than the bird. When it

90
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 2: comes to Thanksgiving, Steve.

91
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 6: Is locked into a traditional meal like he does every

92
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 6: year with his family.

93
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 7: You're doing the typical turkey, We're doing salad, we are

94
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 7: doing mashed potatoes, we're doing green beans.

95
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 6: At the Adams spent the last couple of years perfecting

96
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 6: his turkey recipe. He says he might be more of

97
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 6: a sides guy.

98
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 7: I think a well done bird is the best, but

99
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 7: I could see if it was kind of dry. The

100
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 7: sides are kind of more exciting.

101
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 6: Steve is actually the exception. Campbell's is out with this

102
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 6: annual State of the Sides report and found in Massachusetts,

103
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 6: forty seven percent of people cared more about the stuffing

104
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 6: mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce than the entree.

105
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:16,679
Speaker 3: I definitely agree.

106
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 6: Hayden says mashed potatoes are high up on his list

107
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 6: and he could do without the turkey hundred percent.

108
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 7: Yes, that in the dessert pumpkin pie all the way,

109
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 7: those are always my favorites.

110
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 6: He's actually spending his Thanksgiving at IHOP on mass ab

111
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 6: I'm a freedman w b Z Boston's news radio.

112
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 2: Stuffing or Bust eleven oh seven. Speaking of tough delays

113
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 2: out there, we've been talking about this for the past hours.

114
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 2: So there are still issues on the MBTA's Redline. Multiple

115
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 2: trains had been stopped along the brain Tree branch. The

116
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 2: MBTA says those trains have now been removed from service,

117
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: but you're still seeing delays of more than thirty minutes.

118
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: They recommend you consider the commuter rail or take a

119
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: bus to Field's Corner and get on the Ashmont branch.

120
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 2: And by the way, if you use the ferry normally

121
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 2: south of Boston, I'll have to find another way to

122
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:02,239
Speaker 2: get in, at least for today.

123
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 8: Construction work on the dock at Hangham Ferry Terminal has

124
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 8: both suspended for the day to and from the port.

125
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,239
Speaker 8: The NBTA says the crews are done, but they still

126
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 8: have to watch and see how the dock fares during

127
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 8: overnight tide cycles, and out of an abundance of caution,

128
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 8: they're keeping passengers away. It's a seacoast route for those

129
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 8: who skip the Expressway commute from the South Shore to

130
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 8: Long Wharf of Boston Seaport District, although it's probably very

131
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 8: cold right now. To make up for it, the tea

132
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 8: is increased service in Hull and a shuttle will run

133
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 8: from hang them to the nearest Red Line station at

134
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:39,279
