I'm WBSY Foston's Meat Radio. 2 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 2: Thank you, Al, as I say, it's always I know 3 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 2: it's Friday night when Al's here, and thank god it's Friday. 4 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 2: There's no doubt about that. We've had kind of an 5 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 2: interesting week here on Nightside in many many respects. And 6 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 2: what I'd like to try to do at this time 7 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 2: is one explain to you, if you're a new listen, 8 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 2: what the twentieth hour is. Look, we spend nineteen hours 9 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 2: a week talking about very serious issues. Sometimes obviously there's 10 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: a less serious issues sprinkled in, but we try to 11 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 2: take the twentieth hour and get you to the weekend 12 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 2: in a good mood. It's as simple as that. So 13 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 2: tonight we will ask you, today's the first day of spring. 14 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,319 Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what time it was. I think 15 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 2: it was around eleven o'clock this morning. I'm sure someone 16 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: will tell me exactly what the moment was. Excuse me, 17 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: the first day of spring, But I think the first 18 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 2: day of spring. I think that may first are in 19 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 2: many respects, the best days of the year. I mean, obviously, 20 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: everybody loves Christmas. Everybody loves well, most people love Christmas, 21 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: everybody loves Thanksgiving, the Fourth of July, Easter, all the 22 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 2: different holidays that people celebrate, and in holy days if 23 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: you happen to be religious, and other days, Labor Days 24 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 2: and Nice Day, Memorial Day. Some people look at Memorial 25 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 2: Day as the start of summer, which is great, but 26 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: for me always the first day of spring was important 27 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: in May first. So I want to know if spring 28 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: is your favorite season, it is mine, okay, although summer 29 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 2: is pretty close. But the idea about spring is that 30 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 2: now all the way that we live here in the 31 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: Northern Hemisphere, the best days of the year now all 32 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: lie before us. We got April, which will be a 33 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 2: little rainy, but that's okay, and then we get May, which, 34 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 2: as I think, the most beautiful day of the year. 35 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: Then we have that full blossom and bloom of summer. 36 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: In June, graduations, weddings, family celebrations. You got Mother's Day 37 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 2: in May, Father's Day in June. Then, of course this 38 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: year the fourth of July, which would be a really 39 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 2: special fourth of July being the two hundred and fiftieth 40 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: anniversary of the founding of the country. And then you 41 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: have vacation time in August, and the lazy days of August, 42 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: and then we got to get back on the road 43 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 2: and back to school and back to college and back 44 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 2: to work in September, and then the summer kind of 45 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: drifts away, the leaves turn and it's October. Well, we 46 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: got football, and then we got Thanksgiving, and then we 47 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: have the Christmas holidays and Hanuka and all the different 48 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 2: religions celebrate different holidays about the year, and of course 49 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 2: then we switch and it's a new year. And then 50 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 2: we got those dreary months which are now behind us January, February, 51 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: in March not quite behind us. I heard one of 52 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:10,119 Speaker 2: the meteorologists say today that everybody hates March because it's 53 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: a long month. We got Saint Patrick's Day in March. 54 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 2: That'll pull me through March and then the first day 55 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 2: of spring. So I want to know, is spring your 56 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 2: favorite time of year? Minute might be, or it might 57 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: be summer, But more importantly, what do you look forward 58 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 2: to when spring arrives. I know for me it's baseball. 59 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 2: I know that spring training's wrapping up, and the teams 60 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: that we've watched now through summer of February and all 61 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: of March are coming north and we'll have baseball at 62 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: Fenway Park and wherever you live. So that's the setup 63 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: for the eleven. But we had again it was a 64 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: tough week on a personal level. We lost power in 65 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: my home and I didn't have much sleep on Monday night, 66 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: and then had to actually go and do the show 67 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 2: from studio in Medford, which again I'm fortunate enough I'm 68 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: able to do the show at home. But Monday night 69 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: we started off.

It 172 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 2: will be back, and it will be back up here 173 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: where it belongs. I love seeing it in Florida in February, 174 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 2: but by the end of I wanted to get back 175 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 2: to where it belongs, which is for US Fenway Park. 176 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: My name is Dan Rey. This is nightside. Let's have 177 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 2: some fun. There may be other things and there may 178 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 2: be annual things that you do with your family in 179 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 2: the spring that you would share with us. I know 180 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: that there are a lot of people who I'm not 181 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 2: going to anticipate what people are going to say, but 182 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 2: there's a lot of other things beyond baseball that are 183 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 2: great about the spring. So let's let's get at it. 184 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: The only line open right now is one six, one seven, two, 185 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 2: five thirty. We'll be right back on Nightside. 186 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: Night Side with Dan Ray. I'm Deebsy, Boston's news radio. 187 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: So I don't know how you want to call this 188 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 2: the best part of spring or what. Now that we 189 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 2: have made the turn and it is spring, and I 190 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: know it's supposed to be chilly next week, so spring 191 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 2: doesn't mean automatically temperatures in the seventies. It's a slow process. 192 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 2: But for me, it's baseball. The Red Sox are back. 193 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 2: I was just talking with Troy about the Red Sox 194 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: pitching staff and their rotation. Troy didn't realize you were 195 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 2: a baseball guy. But that's great. We get something else, 196 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 2: something else in common, that's for sure. So let's get 197 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 2: to folks and see what they have to say. And 198 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 2: I'm going to start off with Joel in spring. Joel, 199 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 2: I think you read my You made the recommendation that 200 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: we should talk about spring tonight, so love to know 201 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 2: what you're thinking. 202 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 3: Well, the first thing is I like to listen to 203 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 3: you Monday Friday eight pm to midnight during the spring. 204 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 4: Dan, but. 205 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 2: You're kind. 206 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: But being able to take trips out of Boston by boat, 207 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 3: by air or by air since in the winter you 208 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 3: are shut in because of the weather. 209 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and now you're shut in because of the TSA. 210 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: You know, the one thing we didn't touch on this week, 211 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: which we got to do next week is this TSA shutdown. Uh, 212 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 2: it's getting really bad. And someone said that next Miss 213 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,839 Speaker 2: weekend's going to be tough because a lot of these 214 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 2: kids are returning home from spring break and it's going 215 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 2: to get really tied up. I am so glad that 216 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: I'm not traveling any distance anytime soon. This is, you know, 217 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: let's hope that there's no tragedy that occurs. If you 218 00:12:59,200 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. 219 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 3: I do, I do, And I know you didn't bring 220 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 3: this up, and I wanted to tell you what I 221 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 3: dislike about spring. 222 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 2: That's okay. 223 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 3: The first thing. The first thing is tax season. 224 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 4: And. 225 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 2: That's true. 226 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 3: And another thing. Another thing is making repairs to a 227 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 3: dwelling because of ice, dands, flooding or storm damage because 228 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 3: of the weather. And the third thing is wanting to 229 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 3: dodge the potholes in the roads because you don't have 230 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 3: to buy new tires if you kept by one of those. 231 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 2: Absolutely they're they're expensive. And uh, A lot of the 232 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 2: towns just to figure out, you don't see much. You 233 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 2: don't see the filling of potholes anymore, which is to me, 234 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 2: is absolutely insane. Insane. I mean, because you can actually 235 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: charge a town if you can prove that the pothole 236 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 2: was left unattended, and you know what town that that 237 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 2: pothole is in, you can go you can go to 238 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,479 Speaker 2: that town and file acclaim. It's they have a responsibility 239 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 2: to UH to to fill those potholes in a timely fashion. 240 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 2: All right, Joel, I think we cover the waterfront. 241 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 4: I have a good evening, Dan. 242 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 2: Thanks Joel, talk to you soon. I wasn't sure if 243 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: I lost you there for a second. Okay, let me 244 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 2: go next here. I'm gonna go too.

Ted Williams was 285 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: an an American hero. He the media didn't like him 286 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: because he was kind of a gruff with them. But boy, 287 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: if he had had those five years back, you could 288 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 2: add a couple of hundred home runs and his five 289 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: twenty one would have been somewhere in the seven hundreds, 290 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 2: and Ben might have beaten Rupe Babe Ruth long before 291 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: Hank Aaron. 292 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 5: Imagine that kid coming in to replace them. 293 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 9: He did pretty well though. 294 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 2: Oh well, College Stremsky twenty three years.

Then Yu Stremsky and then Jim Rice, who 299 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 2: had a good run at it as well. So you know, 300 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: Stremsky became the d H and Rice became the left fielder, 301 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: and yeah, there was and then followed followed up by 302 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 2: Mike Greenwell, so that's always been a pretty good position 303 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 2: for the Red Sox, no doubt about that one.

Yes, 330 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 10: we did nothing since since since that until this past month. 331 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, nothing significant. We've had some snowstorms here and there, 332 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 2: trust me on that, but nothing as significant as the 333 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 2: winter of twenty fourteen and fifteen.

No one mentioned 536 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 2: the Arnold Arboretum as yet, so you kind of alluded 537 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 2: to it obviously with things bloom. 538 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 6: But yeah, that open. 539 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 12: When does that open though?

Well, we're not we're not talking to 566 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 12: the grizzlies or the big brown bears. These are the 567 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 12: black bears that they're well trained to. You know, people 568 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 12: put their trash out early. They they're not supposed to 569 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 12: put it out the night before. And I think it 570 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 12: was last summer, you know, I was walking out the 571 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 12: front door and I saw this weird, you know something 572 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 12: in my neighbor's yard. I'm like, what the heck is that? 573 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 12: What's you're throwing out? Is this bear who had completely 574 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 12: dumped over their garbage bag. It was going through the 575 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 12: garbage can, it's going through everything, everything, everything, and a 576 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 12: couple of cars went by and we're taking pictures. That 577 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 12: secured it off and he came back. I finally called, 578 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 12: you know, fishing game or whatever, it's the cooling out 579 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 12: here and said, this thing's right near the railroad and 580 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 12: a major road, and so I just wanted to let 581 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 12: you know what's around because so what did they do 582 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 12: sanging hungry? 583 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, but what did they do with with with? I mean, 584 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 2: they don't they don't last sue. And what they do they. 585 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 12: Shoot, Well, they kind of keep an eye on. Sometimes 586 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 12: they kind of move on. And basically they'll go to 587 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 12: that homeowner and say, dude, you know, keep your trash 588 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 12: in until the truck comes. And if it is all 589 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 12: aggressive or if it breaks into a house or something, 590 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 12: then they'll remove it. If it ends up being a 591 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 12: situation where he's coming back and it's a problem, or 592 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 12: if it kills anybody, they will uthimize it. 593 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 4: But in general, they keep an eye and they can 594 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 4: be convinced to move on. 595 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 2: So are you talking about the people of the bears get? 596 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 4: Unfortunately the bears? 597 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 2: So how far they can into the woods? Do the bear? 598 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 2: Do you think that bears live from where? I mean, 599 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 2: for example, we I don't think we have bears in 600 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 2: eastern Massachusetts in my opinion, so you don't have to 601 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 2: go to western Massachusetts to find where bears would live. 602 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 2: How close you bears live to where you live in Idaho? 603 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 4: Oh, probably within ten miles O. 604 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 12: Bear in eastern Massachusetts. They're coming you and one of 605 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 12: my friends, Oh, they're only in the west. Have never 606 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 12: been bears here.

That 609 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 4: was my friend there. 610 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 6: I told. 611 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 2: I told the story that there was a beer that 612 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: was discovered. I think it was somewhere in the mass 613 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 2: you know, in the in the area the mass Turnpike 614 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 2: in Weston, and they relocated the bear to western Massachusetts 615 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 2: and the beer came back. Uh and seriously and uh. 616 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 2: And I remembered one night I had heard, you know 617 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 2: that the bear had was back in the in the 618 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 2: suburbs of Boston, and it was in a spot. 619 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 12: When you were living out in when you were downtown. 620 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,479 Speaker 2: Downtown, No, no, no doubt, Yeah, in Newton. And I 621 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 2: remember driving home that night and as I moved from 622 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 2: my life of garage and the house, it's unattached, it's detached. 623 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 2: All of a sudden, I had this weird feeling that 624 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 2: I don't know if I heard something or something. And 625 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: it's like one thirty in the morning. I was still 626 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: working at and doing my shows out of Medford. So 627 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 2: I kind of moved a little bit more quick from 628 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 2: my garage to my back door, got in, thought nothing 629 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 2: of it. The next morning, woke up and found that 630 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,359 Speaker 2: the bear had been found in a tree less than 631 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 2: a quarter of a mile from my house.
