She doesn't want to give up our pocketbook, 57 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 4: you know, and you know, he ends up dragging her 58 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 4: and getting away and fleeing on foot. And the big 59 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 4: thing about this case is, you know, obviously he's never 60 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 4: been caught, but the bike was left behind, and you 61 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 4: know that in and of itself, it could be a 62 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 4: big clue to maybe solving this case. 63 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, they find any hopefully some DNA on the case 64 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 3: on the bike. 65 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 4: You no, you know, I'm not sure about that. But 66 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 4: police did put out like what type of bike it was. 67 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 4: It was a metallic brown so kind of like rust 68 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 4: colored fifteen speed Magna Zanziba bike and it was a 69 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 4: missing one pedal, so you know, there might be somebody 70 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 4: out there that remembers, like, hey, there was this kid 71 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 4: in the neighborhood you used to you know, ride a bike. 72 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 4: You know, it's hard to ride a bike with one pedal. 73 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: U I assume I assume that this bike must be kept, 74 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: must be around for evidence, right, yeah, I. 75 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 4: Mean, I'm sure it is a BPD. You know, it's 76 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 4: looking for information on the case that they usually don't reveal, 77 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 4: you know, what they have or don't have for evidence. 78 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 4: But you know the fact that they publicize the exact 79 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 4: brand of the bike and everything. I'm sure it is. 80 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 4: But you know, somebody out there knows something that you know, 81 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 4: I talked to Jean's you know, family, and there was 82 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 4: a name bandied about, you know, as a possible suspect, 83 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 4: and you know, somebody out there must know something. And 84 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 4: if somebody knows about this bike or remembers whoever owned 85 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 4: this bike, that could be the piece of the puzzle 86 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 4: that could solve this. 87 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: Well, you know, I think about South Boston and I 88 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:06,799 Speaker 2: think about times. By two thousand and five, White Bulger 89 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 2: had left South Boston, he was still on the run. 90 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 2: But my suspicion is that as bad a dude as 91 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 2: he was, that if he was still running South Boston 92 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 2: as it was alleged, that whoever did this probably would 93 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: have been caught pretty quickly because that sort of thing, 94 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 2: when it happened while Whitey Bolger was there, there would 95 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: have been an effort by Bulger and his people to 96 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 2: find out who this guy was. And it's yeah, that 97 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 2: does nothing to in any way, shape or form legitimatize, legitimize, 98 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 2: or justify what Whitey Bulger did, but it did kind 99 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 2: of show that things changed in southis and a lot 100 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 2: of that type. 101 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 3: Of literally street crowned. 102 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: This woman's going to work at five point thirty in 103 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 2: the morning at the age of sixty eight, the age 104 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 2: of sixty eight, and the punk who did this to 105 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: her probably hadn't didn't have a real job, because if 106 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: he's up riding his bike trying to rip, you know, 107 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 2: pocketbooks out of the hands of older women who are 108 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 2: probably heading to work. Yeah, you know, don't put me 109 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 2: on the jury with this guy, because. 110 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 4: No A's first, you know, a grandmother, you know. And 111 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 4: you know, this case is up on the Boston Police 112 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 4: Department's website. And I also want to mention that BPD 113 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 4: now is listing all the unsolved murders going back to 114 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 4: nineteen sixty three on their website and there's eighteen hundred 115 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 4: of them, eight. 116 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: One hundred unsolved orders going back to nineteen sixty three. Okay, yeah, 117 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 2: I'm going to do some quick math on that. That 118 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 2: is forty sixty sixty three years. 119 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 3: If I'm not mistaken. 120 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: Okay, so you said eighteen hundred, that's man, that's like 121 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: thirty unsolved murders a year on average. I just did 122 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 2: a little short division in my head. 123 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot, as you know, And gene Lamp 124 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 4: runs up on the website along with you know, over 125 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 4: a thousand others, and you know, police are hoping by 126 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 4: listening all of them that again, it will maybe shake 127 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 4: out information from the public. 128 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell you, I hope. 129 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 2: So the other thing is, if they do have the bike, 130 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 2: I assume that periodically DNA materials. Testing materials become a 131 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: little more efficient. And I hope they go back and 132 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 2: they test this bike or whatever they can do fingerprints 133 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: or DNA, because wouldn't that be wonderful if it had 134 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 2: been sitting there for you know, twenty years or now 135 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 2: eighteen seventeen years and it had been forgotten, go back 136 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 2: and retest it with all this DNA stuff is better 137 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: every every couple of years, you know. 138 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 3: Just a thought, Emily, just a thought.

We don't 193 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 5: like progress. So we like progressive ideas, but we don't 194 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 5: really like the progress part. 195 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 2: Sound sound like my sort of guy, because I kind 196 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 2: of that's my view of what I call the progs. H. 197 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 5: But we don't do u uh and we don't like permits. 198 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 5: We don't like people who do. They don't like people 199 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 5: who do things here, so they don't like people building. 200 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, they prefer in many cases I assume, to 201 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: allow people to pitch a tent in your neighborhood or 202 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 2: maybe out on your street, so you can sort of 203 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 2: share your property with people who have never contributed to it. Yeah, 204 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: that's that's part of the problem. Yeah, tell me about 205 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 2: the comedy tour. I have been in a different type 206 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: of business, television and radio here in Boston for a 207 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 2: long long time. Had a role in one movie, so 208 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: and I know that you do a podcast, so we 209 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: kind of I think, probably think alike, and I'm going 210 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 2: to become a bigger fan of yours as a result. 211 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 2: But how tough is it to get up on that stage. 212 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 2: I've never done anything like stand up comedy. How tough 213 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 2: is it to get up in there that stage and 214 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: try to do your show, particularly when you're starting and 215 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 2: you got the guy in the back of the room 216 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 2: in the shadows trying to give you a hard time. 217 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: It's a tough business to break into. 218 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 7: It. 219 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 5: It's it's tough until it's not tough, and then it 220 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 5: becomes very easy and kind of second nature. So you know, 221 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 5: for me, it's pretty easy and pretty second naturey. But 222 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 5: it's because I've got my ten thousand hours in. But 223 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 5: if you can't do it, it's I mean, you know, 224 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 5: I guess it's like riding a unicycle. I can ride 225 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 5: a unicycle. It's pretty easy for me to ride a unicycle. 226 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 5: But if you can't ride an unicycle, then it's impossible. Yeah, 227 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 5: to ride a unicycle or serve or speak Japanese, you know, 228 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 5: So it all kind of depends. 229 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, the only thing I know about Japanese is arigotto, 230 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 2: So I want to arigotto.

You were born there 245 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 2: and you've made it big. There's not too many people 246 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 2: who find I was born in Boston, and I've stayed 247 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 2: in Boston my entire life, so I kind of have 248 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 2: that sort of feeling towards you as well.

I wasn't going to 258 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 5: work in the white collar world. Not because I didn't 259 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 5: want to, but I just I didn't have the chops. 260 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 5: I couldn't spell, I couldn't read, I couldn't write, you know. 261 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 5: It was just it was clear that I was not 262 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 5: going to work in that world. And so I ended 263 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 5: up on a construction site and I got I learned 264 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 5: pretty fast on the construction site that this didn't seem 265 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 5: like a big picture, long term kind of job. Even 266 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 5: though I ended up doing it for a decade, I 267 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 5: knew it was hard work and dirty work, and you 268 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 5: got your tools stolen, and the guys weren't much fun, 269 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 5: and most of them didn't speak English.

And like I said, 390 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 6: we're just gonna be breaking down. Obviously I do a 391 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 6: lot of football, but we're gonna be talking all Boston sports. 392 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 6: And this time of year, man, is there a lot 393 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 6: going on between the Celtics and Bruin seasons starting up, 394 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 6: the Patriots in full swing, the World Series getting going now, 395 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 6: so a lot of sports that talk about and we're 396 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 6: gonna have a lot of fun on the Boston Globe 397 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 6: Sports Reports. 398 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 2: Well, it's interesting because I know one of the subjects 399 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 2: that probably we need to dive a little bit more 400 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 2: deeply in the future of Bill Belichick out at UNC. 401 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 2: I never thought that we would follow UNC football as 402 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 2: closely as we have this fall, But obviously things are 403 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: not going well for the big guy down there in 404 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 2: North Carolina. I'm sure that I know you have a 405 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 2: paid Trots background. Clearly he's gonna last the year. 406 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 3: Do you think he comes back a year from now? 407 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 6: You know, I wouldn't even go as far to say 408 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 6: that clearly he's gonna make the year. I just think 409 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 6: there's such a tidal wave of negative attention that that 410 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 6: he and uh, you know, his girlfriend have brought upon 411 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 6: the program. And of course the losing two they're two 412 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 6: and four and they're ower and four against you know 413 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 6: what they call power four teams, the real teams. They're 414 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 6: owing four and they get blown out every week. So 415 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 6: it's just been negative headlines and bad football for Bill Belichick. 416 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 6: I don't see him leaving. If if anything, it's gonna 417 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 6: be UNC deciding that they've had enough, and that again, 418 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 6: it's just too much negativity to justify keeping him around. 419 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 6: And we'll see. I mean, he's been good for the 420 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 6: university as far as you know before the season started, 421 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 6: there was a lot of fundraising, a lot of money 422 00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 6: coming in from donors because of Bill Belichick. So certainly 423 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 6: the university was happy with the Belichick effect leading up 424 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 6: to the season. If the money Spigott shoves off, and 425 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 6: I think that gives UNC, you know, the thought to 426 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 6: maybe move on. But the contract is going to be 427 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 6: an issue for them. Ooh, he signed a five He 428 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 6: signed a five year, fifty million dollar contract and three 429 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 6: years thirty million of it are fully guaranteed. So after 430 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 6: this year, he's still going to have twenty million dollars 431 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 6: that UNC os him. If they want to cut him 432 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 6: a fat check and fire him, I think he you know, 433 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 6: that's that's their right, but he's not going to go 434 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 6: anywhere for any any less than that money that they in. 435 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 2: The other thing, too, is that these are not his 436 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 2: recruited players. I mean, I'm not a huge Bill Belichick fan. 437 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 2: I mean I think he does He's done a great 438 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 2: job what he does. He probably could work on the 439 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 2: personality a little bit. I used to love you guys 440 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 2: and the postgame shows after the Patriots game. I would watch, 441 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 2: particularly if they lost, to see how few syllables he 442 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 2: could use in answering questions from from the reporters. It 443 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 2: was painful, painful to watch, but they should give him 444 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 2: a couple of years to recruit some players. Those aren't 445 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 2: his players that they're out on the field. So I 446 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: don't want to sound like, you know, I'm a Bill 447 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 2: Belichick supporter or someone who's rationalizing the results. 448 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 3: I mean, they're getting croaked by these teams. 449 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 2: He I hope they get to play like maybe elon 450 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 2: On on their schedule. I think they could beat Elon 451 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 2: in North Carolina if they got them on the schedule. 452 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 2: But it's you know, I don't know, it's been It's 453 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 2: been a long, strange trip for Bill Belichick post Patriots, 454 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 2: that's for sure. 455 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 3: And I don't know where it goes from here. Probably 456 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 3: nobody does.

I got a real 543 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 2: simple solution, they need to wear goggles. But we'll see 544 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 2: what doctor Tiger has to say. Tiger excuse me, Tiger 545 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 2: is the correct pronunciation. 546 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 3: Good. 547 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 2: I love that doctor Marissa Tiger movie with us.

You got 551 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 2: an extra e in that name. I mispronounced it is 552 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: Tiger and I apologize for that doctor. 553 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 7: No problem, thanks so much for having me. 554 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 2: You're an optthalmologist that Tough's Medical Center. I happen to 555 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 2: really be fond of optalmologists. I've had eye surgery back 556 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 2: in nineteeny two for a detached retina, and it's been 557 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 2: it's been an interesting experience, and that is for sure, 558 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 2: and that's we're going to talk about eye injuries among 559 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 2: pickleball players. Everybody thinks of pick a ball is a 560 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 2: game where they kind of you know, sort of like 561 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 2: a little table tennis type thing, but it can get 562 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 2: a little bit more active than that. What sort of 563 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 2: injuries are we talking about with the game of pickleball? 564 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 7: So you know, you're right, people think it's pretty harmless, 565 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 7: but these balls can you know, pick up a pretty 566 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 7: good speed up to sixty miles per hour. And you know, 567 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 7: there's a few different types of injuries. You know, first, 568 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,479 Speaker 7: the ball directly to the eye can cause injuries from 569 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 7: the front to the back. You know, from corneal abrasions 570 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 7: to blood in the front of the eye, to things 571 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 7: like retinal tears and retinal detachments or you know, full 572 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 7: thickness injuries in the wall of the eye. Open globe injuries, 573 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 7: but other injuries can also happen from falls and also 574 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 7: from the paddle hitting the eye. So you know, there's 575 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 7: a lot of different mechanisms for this and they can 576 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 7: range from mild injuries to pretty you know, site threat 577 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 7: and make severe injuries. 578 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 2: So why are people not wearing by necessity goggles? I mean, 579 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 2: the National Hockey League now forces the players to at 580 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: least war that that eye shield. I mean, hockey players 581 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 2: in the nineteen sixties and into the seventies didn't have 582 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: to wear even a helmet, never mind to shield. And 583 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 2: there were there were hockey players, a couple of hockey 584 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 2: players who actually had very serious eye injuries. 585 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 3: From from an impact of a puck. 586 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 2: Why why a pickleball players not wearing I'm sure some are, 587 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 2: but why is that not just part of what you 588 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: have to wear to utilize if you're going to play 589 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 2: the game. 590 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 7: You know, there's a few reasons that. First off, there's 591 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 7: a lot of resistance to eye protection, you know, in general, 592 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,719 Speaker 7: whether that's within sports, within you know, in the workforce. 593 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 7: You know, people find eye protection to be cumbersome, but 594 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 7: it's incredibly important, and you know, unfortunately there's no guidelines, 595 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 7: you know, mandating eye protection for pickleball players. But I 596 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,959 Speaker 7: think once people realize that there is a risk and 597 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 7: you know, while pickleball is fun, it's not worth the 598 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,479 Speaker 7: expense of their vision, I think more people will slowly 599 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 7: learn to adapt it. But you know, this is a 600 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 7: recreational game, and so I just think a lot of 601 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 7: people have a lot of resistance to it. 602 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't make sense because the people who are 603 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 2: playing this game, particularly the older crowd, they should know 604 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 2: from experience that people in the circle of friends have 605 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 2: suffered eye injuries over the years. And obviously as you 606 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 2: get older, you got to be thinking about potential cataract surgeries. 607 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 2: You got to think about macula degeneration, you got to 608 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 2: think about coma. You got to make sure that you 609 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 2: that you visit, you know, an optometrists or ophthalmologists on 610 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:55,959 Speaker 2: an annual basis. There's so much stuff that we do 611 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 2: on this show about the various forms of you know, 612 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 2: cancers and diseases, but very really do we talk to 613 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 2: someone like yourself who's an optalmologist about you know, eye 614 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 2: care and our vision is such a precious gift in 615 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 2: my in my opinion. 616 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 7: Oh absolutely, I think you're completely right, and you know, 617 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 7: the truth of the matter is is that you know, 618 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 7: a large study was just published in gem Ophthalmology, and 619 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 7: what it showed is that the patients that are obtaining 620 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 7: these eye injuries are the older population, you know, tends 621 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 7: to be the patients over age fifty, and a lot 622 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 7: of those patients have already had cataract surgery. And when 623 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 7: you're talking about an eye that's already had wounds created, 624 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 7: it's even more susceptible to injury. So if you you know, 625 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 7: put trauma into an eye like that, there's weak areas 626 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 7: that are more likely to rupture, causing more severe damage. 627 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 7: But you know, hopefully we can spread the word and 628 00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 7: people will start to think eye protection is not such 629 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 7: a bad thing. 630 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 2: For many years, I'm sure you remember doctor Brad Shingleton 631 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 2: and I used to have doctor Shingleton on as a 632 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 2: guest and talk about a couple of times a year 633 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 2: about what people should be thinking about. 634 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 3: Again. 635 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 2: I remember when I had a detached retina. I was 636 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 2: terrified because I thought to myself and it was it 637 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 2: was within one millimeter of my my macular and I 638 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 2: remember the doctor took it very very seriously and I 639 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,239 Speaker 2: was able to kind of self diagnose. I caught a 640 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 2: couple of those light flashes walking into a dark room, 641 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 2: which caused me to, uh to to think about what 642 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 2: could that be? And I kind of figured it out 643 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 2: and got to a great surgeon at the time, doctor 644 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 2: Don Pruitt at Mass General. But I can remember being 645 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 2: terrified that if I lost vision in one eye, you know, 646 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 2: and then you only have one eye left, and if 647 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 2: you lose it in the second, you don't have the. 648 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 3: Vision at all. 649 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 2: So to all the pickleball players, take the advice of 650 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 2: doctor Marissa Tiger at Tufts Medical Center. 651 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 6: Uh. 652 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 3: And those those those plastic you know, glasses goggles. 653 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 2: They may not be the sexiest thing to be aware 654 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 2: out of the other court, but boy, if you ever 655 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 2: take something directly in the eye, it'll save you. Thank 656 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,360 Speaker 2: you so much for joining us. Is there any study 657 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 2: you just did a study on this, I believe, on 658 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 2: this very topic, so you're particularly qualified. Can how can 659 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 2: folks find the study if they'd like to read about it? 660 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 7: So, Actually, the major study that came out in jim Opsomologia, 661 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 7: I wasn't involved in that. I wrote an article for 662 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 7: I NEET over a year ago because more of these 663 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 7: case reports were coming out and I was treating patients 664 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 7: with you know, ie injuries from pickleball.
