Another thing we will talk about is 62 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: TSA I have as a person I know that resents 63 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 2: the TSA, that resents being padded down. I don't. I'm 64 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 2: not a big person that stands in line, but I'm 65 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: somewhat comforted that that I'm getting padded down. I'd say, 66 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: please pat me down all day. That's fine. So I 67 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 2: ask you, are you uncomfortable when they do that in 68 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 2: front of people? I'm not just go for it. They 69 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: ask you, do you want a separate room? Do you 70 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 2: want to go in a little room and have us 71 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 2: pat you down? No, it's okay.

Cool. 75 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: If it keeps me in the air, I'm all about it. 76 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 2: But this person I know feels it's theater, doesn't matter, 77 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 2: and feels put upon have to go through this. How 78 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 2: do you feel about that? We're gonna talk about what 79 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: degree of the degree of effectiveness that we get through 80 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 2: the TSA. They do find a lot of guns. For example, 81 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 2: that's tomorrow travel insurance. Should you get it or not? 82 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: Talk about that? That's something to think about. That's always 83 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 2: a question, right should I get the airlines offer it 84 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: when you purchase a ticket? Do you get that? Yes 85 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 2: or no? Or do you say no to that and 86 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 2: get some third party insurance? I get the third party 87 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 2: insurance for the actual for the medical coverage that it provides. 88 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 2: And did you know that there are no oxygen tanks 89 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: on the on an airplane?

What's with that? 94 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: You might ask, Well, mikel will explain that. Here's another one. 95 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: Airport etiquette. People are meaner all the time. They got 96 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 2: meaner online, and now they're carrying their online behavior into 97 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: in person. You see it on airplanes, you see it 98 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 2: in the airports. Talk a little bit about online. Excuse 99 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 2: me on airport etiquette? And did you know there's a 100 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 2: seating rule There are rules for you depending on whether 101 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: you're sitting in the window seat, the aisle seat, or 102 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 2: the middle seat. You have certain rights and responsibilities socially speaking, 103 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: when you sit in the window seat, when you sit 104 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 2: in the aisle seat, and when you sit in the middle. 105 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 2: Do you know what you're entitled to if you sit 106 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 2: in the middle seat, Well, you'll find that out tomorrow. 107 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: And this is kind of the big one. More and 108 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 2: more you see people who have paid money, good money, 109 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 2: hard cash, f extra legrum for a better seat, for 110 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: an upgrade. Maybe they've worked hard in our lives. They're 111 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 2: going somewhere special and they they want a better seat, 112 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: and they pay for the seat, and someone comes over there, 113 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 2: over to them and says, for example, my family is 114 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: sitting besides, you do mind if we would? Would you 115 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: mind if I see in your seat? What do you do? 116 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 2: I What I do is say yes, I would mind. Sorry, 117 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 2: it's not the end of the I won't say this, 118 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 2: but it's not the end of the world. If you 119 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 2: have to sit fifteen feet away from your family watch 120 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: a movie you should have booked earlier. Sorry. If you're 121 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: willing to pay me the difference that I paid for 122 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 2: the seat, then maybe we can talk. But we'll find 123 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: out if I'm mean, mister Mustard, what would you do? 124 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: You can tell me this now we're going to discuss 125 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 2: this in detail tomorrow. So those are all some of 126 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: the things we'll talk about tomorrow. Now, as I mentioned, 127 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: it's open lines. But I'd like to ask you about 128 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 2: bar pizza. Who knows what south Shore bar pizza is. 129 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: I'm a little fuzzy on it. I'd like you to 130 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 2: explain it to me. Oh, I've looked it up, but 131 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 2: perhaps you could tell me about what bar pizza is. 132 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 2: And if you think south Shore bar pizza, Bah Pizza 133 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 2: is better than north Shore Beach Pizza, two entirely different things. 134 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: I've had more south Shore bar pizza, and I'm curious. 135 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 2: Can you explain it to everyone else what it is? 136 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 2: It's a thing. It's a very very specific thing, and 137 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: it means a lot to people. There are places like 138 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 2: excuse me, let's see, well, do I have a list? 139 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 2: I had a list. I can get a list, but 140 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 2: I'd like to actually, I would prefer you tell me 141 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 2: what the best bar pizza place is on the south 142 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 2: Shore and on the north shore of the beach pizza. 143 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 2: I've had bar pizza on the south Shore, and I 144 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 2: didn't like it. I thought it was greasy, but maybe 145 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,599 Speaker 2: I went to the wrong place. Here are some of 146 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: the you know, the definitions. These are the elements of 147 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 2: the south Shore of bar pizza six one, seven, two, 148 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 2: the number where do you go? Most everyone in the 149 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 2: south Shore has a place they swear by self Shore 150 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 2: of bar pizza, local bars and taverns. South Shore and 151 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 2: South Coast entirely different thing. It's small, usually ten to 152 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 2: twelve inches. It comes in a pan. It's a pan 153 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 2: baked thing. It's got thick crust. I'm generally not down 154 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: with a thick crust. And it's kind of almost fried 155 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 2: from the oil in the pan. It's almost fried self fried. 156 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 2: It's got a lot of cheese edge to edge, and 157 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: it's uh not sweet. That's the difference between the south 158 00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 2: Shore and the north Shore. It's spicier and not for 159 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 2: my money, it's got too much cheese. There's more to 160 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 2: pizza than just putting a bunch of cheese on a 161 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 2: piece of bread. It's the delicate balance of tomato, sauce 162 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 2: or gravy, if you will, and cheese. Too much cheese 163 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 2: is just a big blump of cheese and as far 164 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 2: as the culture, it's a loyalty based thing. I don't 165 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 2: even know if how good the pizza is even matters. 166 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 2: It's this territorial thing, loyalty based. Everybody has their bar, 167 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 2: and everybody will defend their bar. There there South Shore bar, 168 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 2: pizza bar, excuse me. And it's meant to be eaten 169 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: at a table, that's a thing. It's got to be 170 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 2: eaten at a table or the bar. And it's supposed 171 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: to be consumed with beer. What's not supposed to be 172 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: consumed with beer? And people will are you about? Which 173 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 2: place does it? 174 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 3: Right? 175 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 2: I went to one underneath the barn Bridge. I don't 176 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 2: know the name of that one. Do you know the 177 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 2: name of it? And you know what was the interesting 178 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 2: thing about that? I went with my friend because I 179 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 2: went to buy I had gone down the fur interest 180 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: store down there, the big one, to find out a sofa, 181 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 2: and we stopped to get some bar pizza so the 182 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 2: guy could turn me onto the bar pizza and we 183 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 2: went there, and you know it was interesting. People were 184 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 2: talking about and I know this sounds braggy, but they 185 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 2: were talking about me. It was weird. I was at 186 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 2: this bar, pizza bar underneath the barn Bridge and they 187 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: were talking about WBZ and Bradley J. And when I 188 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 2: used to do the overnight, I thought, wow, should I 189 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 2: say something? Nope, it would be so tacky to say something. 190 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 2: Now in the north Shore, I'll run through the north 191 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 2: Shore what the beach pitch is?

Listen to night Side on the 206 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 2: iHeartRadio app. I'm very sorry about this cough.

And if 209 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 2: you would like to re listen or you'll missed part 210 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: of a night Side show, you can certainly go to 211 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 2: Nightside on Demand. I love that feature. Nightside on Demand. 212 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 2: You're gonna hear Dan Ray any time, hear the whole thing. 213 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 2: And if there's a lot of information, you miss something 214 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: you're driving and you can't write something down like we 215 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 2: had the guests to tonight Craig Fitzgerald. He gave a 216 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 2: lot of information and maybe you wanted to jot it down, 217 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 2: but you couldn't. Nightside on Demand just listen again and 218 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: you know generally when it was. You can fast forward 219 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 2: and everything. So that's cool. That's one of the one 220 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: of the great things about technology. The other thing easy pass. 221 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 2: Remember when there was a line two miles at the 222 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 2: Hampton toll well. Easy pass another good use of technology. 223 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 2: So it's easy pass and on demand, two great uses 224 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 2: of technology. I'm in a minute. I guess I'll finish 225 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 2: the my thing on beach pizza versus bar pizza. But 226 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: first let's go to the phone here and I guess 227 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: we'll talk to Griffin in it's either Marshfield or Mansfield. 228 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: Hi Griffin. 229 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 4: Hey, how are you. 230 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 2: I'm very well. Thanks for calling. That's a new name. 231 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 2: I don't believe i've spoken to you before. 232 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 5: No. 233 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 4: I was just driving home from Christmas and I heard 234 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 4: your conversation about bar pizza. And I currently work at 235 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 4: a place called Rafferties in Marshfield, which is on Snow Road. 236 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 4: I'm not one hundred percent sure it's bad to Marshall's. 237 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 4: It's a great place. But we do bar pizza and 238 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 4: it's delightful and the people keep coming back and it's 239 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 4: not greasy or spicy or extra cheese. 240 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 2: So do me favor and give me your definition of 241 00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: what bar pizza is. 242 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 4: It's very simple, I think. Obviously you have to start 243 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 4: with a good pan and we keep the oil minimum 244 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 4: on it great though good sauce. We don't cook our sauce. 245 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 4: It's you know, we may get cold and then just 246 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 4: the right amount of cheese. And I learned from the best. 247 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 4: We've been doing it long enough. That is very simple, 248 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 4: and the price is right. And it's one of those things, 249 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 4: you know, if you're twenty years old and you're working outside, 250 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 4: you could eat a whole one to snap your fingers, 251 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 4: and if you're out with your girlfriend, you could split one, 252 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 4: and if you're out with your friends, you could get 253 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 4: a whole bunch of them. But they're small, they're manageable. 254 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 4: We call it laced, which is when the sauce and 255 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 4: the cheese goes up to the edge of the pans. 256 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 4: Some people don't like those crispy edges, but maybe that's 257 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 4: not the pizza for them, right, And I figure I 258 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 4: would just touch base and give you my appreciate. 259 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: When you buy a regular standard pizza, how much does 260 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 2: that cost? Now? I haven't. I haven't bought a pizza 261 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 2: in so long. I buy slices, but never a whole one. 262 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 2: Is it like generally for a normal non bar pizza, 263 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 2: like fifteen bucks now or more? 264 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 4: I think if you're going to a good establishment, and 265 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 4: you know our purchasing power of our dollars and what 266 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 4: it used to be, if they're using good ingredients, you know, 267 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 4: if you're getting out for under twenty dollars, they got 268 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 4: to be cutting corners somewhere. And that's the beauty of 269 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 4: the bar pizzas. It's small, and yeah, if you need 270 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 4: a lot, it would fill you up, But what's that 271 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 4: like ten bucks? I think our cheeses are I'd say 272 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 4: about ten, and then with toppings, you know, they'll go 273 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 4: off a dollar or two. 274 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: And that was my next question. Is it one standard 275 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:52,199 Speaker 2: thing the bar pizza is one topping or do you 276 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 2: get choices with the bar pizza. 277 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 4: Well, we have a plethora of toppings. It's really anything 278 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 4: you want. But the other is they're very simple, So 279 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 4: if you're getting a five topping bar piece, I would 280 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 4: consider that over the top us. 281 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 2: What are you saying, crust. 282 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 4: No, you were saying earlier when I was listening that 283 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 4: it's very dowe and ours. We hand them out so 284 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 4: they're actually quite crispy, which some people like them well done. 285 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 4: It's not for me personally, but yeah, they're they're crispy 286 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 4: and thin. And you know, I don't know if you 287 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 4: know Dave Portnoy of his Barstool Pizza reviews. Yeah, we 288 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 4: have zero flop and it's a positive thing. 289 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 2: Good. So once again, did you say Rafferty's. 290 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 4: Rafferty's Pub on Snow Road and it's managed by mister 291 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 4: Ryan Start, the kitchen manager Sean Brindley. They're wonderful, world 292 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 4: class people and all the employees are great and yeah. 293 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 2: Great, Well, shouts out to everybody in Marshville and the environs. 294 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 2: I really appreciated, Thank you Griffin and for checking and 295 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 2: appreciate that. Isn't that good? So that's an example of 296 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 2: a location for bar pizza. There are others, and I'll 297 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 2: ask you which one. I have some of the big 298 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 2: names in bar pizza here, some of the famous ones. 299 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 2: The Linwood Cafe, that's some say, many say the quintessential 300 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 2: South Shore bar pizza. Does anybody know the history of 301 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 2: barb pizza? Where it come from? How come it's only 302 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 2: in the South Shore of Massachusetts? How did that happen? 303 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 2: Cape Cod Cafe is another one. Which one do you 304 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 2: like best? Hugely popular? Obviously I'm reading this. I didn't 305 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 2: memorize it. It's in Brockton, Cape Cod Cafe. It's in Brockton, 306 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 2: but people dry far and wide to go there. Poopsies Pembroke, 307 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 2: there's a strong following. I've heard people recommend that as well. 308 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: It's known for its crisp crusp and classic toppings. I'm 309 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 2: surprised you get a choice of toppings. I would think 310 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 2: it would be one thing. Trading Post Lounge, that's the 311 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 2: beloved Born bar where I think that I went right, 312 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 2: isn't that right?

I myself, 318 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 2: I'm a north Short person. The south Shore is a 319 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 2: mystery to me. I did have a talk radio job 320 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 2: down in there. I can't even remember the town. It 321 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: didn't stay there long.

His name. I 412 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 2: see Bob in Boston, but his name is Boston Bob. 413 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 2: And do you mind if we talk about a little 414 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 2: bit about your journey. 415 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 3: No, I don't mind at all, but I wanted to 416 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 3: just share with you my thoughts on north Shore pizza. Okay, 417 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 3: I got a kick out of the north Shore bar pizza. 418 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 3: Back in the day when I was a young man. 419 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 3: My friends and I would go to Salisbury Beach and 420 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 3: we would enjoy what you referred to as north Shore 421 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 3: bar pizza pizza. No, no, no, not not not bar pizza, 422 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 3: beach pizza. And the biggest kick I got out of 423 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 3: it was if you wanted cheese on that pizza, you 424 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 3: paid extra. 425 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: So mostly it was tomato. 426 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 3: Sauce, tomato sauce, a very slight drizzle of cheese, and 427 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,199 Speaker 3: if you want a cheese they throw a slice of 428 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 3: pavolo and cheese on it for an extra whatever. 429 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 2: So that does not sound like a ringing endorsement. It 430 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 2: doesn't sound very good. 431 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 3: It was actually, it was actually delicious. I enjoyed the 432 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 3: history of it. And at the risk of being candid, 433 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 3: I have never experienced a south Shore bar pizza. 434 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 2: I had it, I had it once. I don't know 435 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 2: if I've ever had a north Shore pizza, which is 436 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 2: surprising because I'm a north Shore person. Ryan who just called, 437 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 2: said there's a distinct difference between the people in the 438 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 2: north Shore and the people in the south Shore. He said, 439 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: they just don't mix. I would really love it if 440 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 2: someone could could kind of elaborate on that a little bit. 441 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 4: But I am well, I am. 442 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 2: A north Shore person and I don't gravitate to this 443 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 2: outh shore. I don't gravitate to the Cape. The Cape 444 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 2: never comes into my mind if I think where do 445 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 2: I want to go? 446 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 3: Never for us to get to and uh, there's nothing 447 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 3: but ever traffic down that way. So I stay away 448 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 3: from the Cape. But what we're known for here in 449 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 3: the north Shore, you know I'm from the north Shore. 450 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 3: We're not known for our pizza. We're known for our 451 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 3: roast beef sandwiches. 452 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, that's right, of course. Where's I use like, 453 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: where's your Where's the best place? Now? 454 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 3: Is a place in TBD called I think it's called 455 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 3: Lendy's and uh, they make a terrific super beef. Most 456 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 3: people like to get the triple which is cheese, mayo 457 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 3: and sauce and it's out of this world. 458 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds it sounds fantastic. And then it was 459 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 2: Kelly's on uh and Rerea right are they still there? 460 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 3: Oooh, the worst experience in the world is Kelly's. In 461 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 3: my in my humble opinion. Back in the day, they 462 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 3: used to be terrific on Revere Beach, especially when you 463 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 3: got the hungry horrors at two in the morning because 464 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 3: they were open pretty much twenty I think it was 465 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 3: twenty three hours a day. It's pretty crazy interesting, Okay. 466 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 2: The Tripley's is the adventor of the beach pizza as 467 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 2: far as I understand. 468 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 3: And it's yeah, this two competitors.

You know, 494 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: I was in Rome and I was doing a video 495 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 2: walking around and he sent me a message said, hey, dude, 496 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 2: you got to get a gimbal It's one of these 497 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 2: things that allows you to walk around and make smooth videos. 498 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 2: I have one. I still have it with me now. 499 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 2: So I come to know Bob quite well and have 500 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 2: great respect for Bob. One day I called Bob and 501 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 2: it sounded like death on the other end of the line. 502 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 2: Bob was so I'm surprised, he answered the phone. It 503 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 2: was so so, so sick, and he said, I can't talk. 504 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 2: I can't talk. I'll talk to you maybe by Christmas. 505 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 2: And I thought, oh my, you probably don't even remember 506 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 2: that because you were probably medicated. But I thought, wow, 507 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 2: this is it. This is serious business. And then I 508 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 2: didn't hear from Bob for maybe. I don't know Bob 509 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 2: a year, and I didn't know how what had happened. 510 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 2: I did not know which way I went for you. 511 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 2: And then one day I don't know whether it was 512 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 2: on my podcast or or or on the radio, but 513 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 2: I did, and I was overjoyed to know that you 514 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 2: had made it. And you know, we don't want to 515 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 2: I don't want to need to get into any excruciating 516 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 2: details because we don't have the time. But you looked 517 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 2: at you looked the big fear right in the eye, 518 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 2: and you survived. I tell me in the cliff notes 519 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 2: of what happened. 520 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 3: Well, thank you, Bradley for allowing me the opportunity to 521 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 3: chat about this. And the reason why I'm happy to 522 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 3: chat about it is because I'd love to promote to 523 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 3: people to donate blood. And I'll tell you why. So 524 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 3: the cliff notes are like this. I used to walk, 525 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 3: you know this. I used to walk four to five 526 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 3: miles every single day. I was very fit, loved walking. 527 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,479 Speaker 3: And it got to a point where I could barely 528 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 3: walk to the bathroom and I knew something was wrong 529 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 3: and I could barely breathe, and so I went to 530 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 3: my doctor. My doctor sent me to the local hospital, 531 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 3: and when they got me into the hospital, they discovered 532 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 3: that I was very low on blood and they started 533 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 3: to put many packets of blood comes in these plastic packets, 534 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 3: and they put many packets of blood into me, and 535 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 3: also plasma. And it dawned on me right then and there, Bradley, 536 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 3: how important I never realized this until I became sick. 537 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 3: It is so important for people to donate blood because 538 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 3: so many people need to live with blood that's donated. 539 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 2: I want to share what it was that was your affliction. 540 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 3: Sure, so, I was suffering from what's known as lymphoma. 541 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 3: Lymphoma is a blood disease, it's cancer, and I was 542 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 3: fortunate enough from that local hospital to be transferred to 543 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:51,919 Speaker 3: Mass General, where I was treated by the most professional 544 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 3: medical people that I've ever come to know in my lifetime. 545 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 3: They are amazing. God sends Bradley at the Mass General. Unfortunately, 546 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:10,439 Speaker 3: their first attempt to eradicating my lymphoma was via oh 547 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 3: my god, I'm having a brain cramp chemotherapy. Yes, the 548 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 3: chemotherapy did not work, and so moving the story along, 549 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 3: they went to what's known as they referred to what 550 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 3: as Plan B, and it was miraculous Bradley. It's called 551 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 3: car T cell treatment car T cell treatment, and what 552 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 3: they do is, Bradley, they take blood from you and 553 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 3: they just narrow it down to what's known as T cells. 554 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 3: TEA is entango, and they ship the blood off to 555 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 3: a lab. The lab recalibrates the blood to fight lymphoma. 556 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 3: They send the blood back and they put it in 557 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 3: you and as luck would have it. Bradley. The doctor 558 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 3: came into me and he said, it doesn't happen often, 559 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 3: but I need to let you know that one of 560 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 3: the side effects of this treatment is you could go 561 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 3: into a coma. And I said, well, I'm so glad 562 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 3: that it doesn't happen often. And I had already been 563 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 3: in the hospital for seven days, and then I went 564 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,399 Speaker 3: into a coma and when I came to I saw 565 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 3: her in the wall it said day thirteen. I was 566 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 3: in a coma for six days. Eventually I couldn't do 567 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 3: a thing, Bradley, for my life. I couldn't lift my 568 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 3: arms when I came out of the coma, I couldn't 569 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 3: feed myself. I needed help. And again I can't say 570 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 3: enough about the godsends at the NASA General Hospital. They 571 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 3: are absolutely amazing. And after I finally got out of 572 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 3: the hospital, they did what's known as another pet scan, 573 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 3: and the pet scan revealed that the cancer was gone. 574 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 3: And so it took me a long time, Bradley, to 575 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 3: get my strength back. I'm still not entirely back, but 576 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 3: you could probably hear it in my voice. I sun 577 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 3: him a lot better than the last time. 578 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 2: You can tell a lot by a prison's voice, and 579 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 2: you sound very strong. 580 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I I am much stronger than I was. I'm 581 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 3: not walking yet. I'm walking a little bit, but I 582 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 3: hope to get back to walking. My flour to five 583 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 3: miles a day and I am I can't. I want 584 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 3: to go back to letting people know how important it 585 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 3: is to donate blood. Look, it's we're just finishing up 586 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 3: Christmas here. It's the it's the the time of giving. Right, 587 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 3: give blood. Find a place to donate blood, and go 588 00:37:55,920 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 3: donate blood. People need it. They need to live from 589 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 3: your blood. And that's what I have to say. 590 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 2: I really appreciate you talking about this. It's I was, 591 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 2: you know, shocked, and it really had a big impact 592 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 2: when I heard you speak, and you see you were 593 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 2: at death's door. It sounded like like for real in 594 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 2: a way that you just don't hear. And to hear 595 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,879 Speaker 2: you speaking now is a gift for me. So thank 596 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 2: you very much, Bob. 597 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 3: Thank you, Bradley. Jay, you have a wonderful rest of 598 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,320 Speaker 3: your evening, and I wish you a healthy and happy 599 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 3: new Year. And regards to Molly. 600 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Molly the dog. Thanks Bob, Bye bye. That's 601 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 2: quite a story and quite a happy story, and I 602 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 2: think some of us take hospitals for granted. I understand 603 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 2: that for routine stuff it's a warrant and it's a 604 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 2: maze of complicated procedures. But when it comes to stuff 605 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 2: like Bob needed, people fly from Saudi Arabia to come 606 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 2: here to a place that many of us can walk to. 607 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 2: I'm fortunate that sometimes, like I've had surgery and I 608 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,359 Speaker 2: walked to it, i had to get a ride home 609 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 2: though they wouldn't let me walk home. We'll talk to 610 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 2: James after this on w b Z
