1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,080 Speaker 1: All right, friends, welcome into the after show podcast justin here. 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,280 Speaker 1: I hope your day is awesome. Let's get this thing going. 3 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 1: I'm solo today, do not have a guest. H To 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: be honest with you, I did not put much effort 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: into it. It's been a busy morning, lots going on, 6 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: always busy, always doing stuff. I had a bunch of 7 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,639 Speaker 1: commercials to produce after the show and didn't sleep that 8 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,799 Speaker 1: good last night. I've been tracking my sleep on my 9 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: Apple Watch, which I don't know how accurate that is 10 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: if anybody out there uses an Apple Watch. I was 11 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: kind of torn on getting like a Whoop or an 12 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: oor Ring or any of these fitness trackers that also 13 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: track your sleep. But I got an Apple Watch because 14 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: I could just add it to the plan that we have. 15 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: I didn't have to pay much out of pocket, so 16 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: it just made more sense. And so now I'm like 17 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: obsessing about it. And you know, when I don't get 18 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: good sleep, it messes me up because I'm thinking, you know, 19 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: it's because of the sleep that I'm so tired, obviously, 20 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,319 Speaker 1: or that my brain is not functioning correctly. But I've 21 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: been up like every the last couple of nights. Part 22 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 1: of that is my cat, who I love. We have 23 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: a cat, an orange cat named Jacks. But Jack's will 24 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: meow outside the door because I can't let him into 25 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: the bedroom because he likes to jump up and down 26 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 1: off the bed. He's very active and which I heard 27 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: about orange cats that they are like that. But you know, 28 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: he won't sit in one spot. He wants to be 29 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 1: able to go outside and inside, and I like the 30 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: door shut, so I keep him locked out, and so 31 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: he sits at the door and myows, and even if 32 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: I let him in, he'll just go back out. So 33 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,279 Speaker 1: I guess the solution would be to leave the door open. 34 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,919 Speaker 1: But I don't know. I go to bed so early 35 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: and the light and all that stuff, so I haven't 36 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: been sleeping good. But other than that, I feel just fine. 37 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a Wednesday. I had the Power of 38 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: Recovery Guys on yesterday. That was fun, and then we 39 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: had Damon on the show today because by chance, he 40 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: had a money counter. If you missed it, one of 41 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: the secret sound guesses was a money counter, and that 42 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: got us talking like who has one of those besides it? 43 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: And turns out Damon has one. You might be asking why, Well, 44 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: you heard them yesterday. They own like twelve or thirteen 45 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: sober houses and a lot of their payments, their rent 46 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: payments comes in the form of cash. So every Friday 47 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: for years, Damon, who oversees all of that, would take 48 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: the cash in and you'd have to count it by hand, 49 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: and he got smart and got a money counter. But 50 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: how funny was that they were on the podcast yesterday 51 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: and on the show today, So that was cool. I 52 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 1: love those guys so much. And again, if any of 53 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: your needs addiction related, any help that you need. I 54 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: did hear from the person that left a talk back 55 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: for them yes on the show if you missed it 56 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: about her father who is an alcoholic who they want 57 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: to get help for, but he's kind of resistant to 58 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: getting the help. They are going to take their advice. 59 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: They're going to reach out to Power of Recovery, which 60 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: they can assist and guide them on the intervention if 61 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: they want to go down that route. So I don't know, man, 62 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: the addiction stuff, the work that I do is so 63 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: important and it means so much to me obviously because 64 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: of where I come from. It's crazy. So on my 65 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: Facebook memories, I don't like Facebook, but I do check 66 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: the memories, because you know, it's a trip down memory lane. 67 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: It's embarrassing. But I found an old blog that I 68 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: created as a senior project my senior year of college, 69 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: and it documented the entire like two years, two or 70 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: three years, my first two or three years as an intern, 71 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: and so it has audio, it has pictures, and it 72 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: has me writing about my experience coming into the radio 73 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: business and working at JAM of ninety four or five. 74 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: It's wild, like to read that back and where I 75 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: was at. But then also to listen to the audio 76 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: of the first time that I was on the air, 77 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: it's crazy. I was going to post a link to 78 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: it on my Instagram, but I'm like really embarrassed by 79 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: it because if you listen to me, I sound like 80 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: I just got off parole, like which I did, Like 81 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: I just got out of jail. I sound so so 82 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: Boston and so Street because that's what I knew, so 83 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: much different than than now. And the first time I 84 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: was on the air, So I had started as an 85 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 1: intern with Romero and Santi and Pebbles and Melissa, and 86 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: you know, Romero and Santy would they would talk to 87 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: the interns, they would talk to people after the show 88 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: and try to see where they were at and see 89 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: if they could get any good stories from them. So 90 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 1: that happened with me. So I think I was probably 91 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: here for a week or two, and you know, we 92 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: got to chat and they could tell that something was 93 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: not off with me, but that I had something going on, 94 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: probably by the way that I talked and the way 95 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: that I dressed, because I also dressed kind of you know, 96 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: baggy shorts. It was you know, it was really big 97 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: and fat. And so they got to talk to me 98 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: after talking to me after the show, and I started 99 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: telling them some stories. Now I didn't say that I 100 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: was a former addict, that I was in recovery. I 101 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: didn't say any of that stuff, but you know, I 102 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: told him some of the fun the fun stories, like 103 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: the first one I told. Well, so I told him 104 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: the stories. But then I also, I don't know how 105 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: it came up that I was a spelling bee champ 106 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: in elementary school, fourth fifth grade. I had won the 107 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: spelling bee at my school. So that came up and 108 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: they decided to do a bit a spelling bee me 109 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 1: versus Romero, And that was the first time they put 110 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: me on air as an intern. Justin and if you 111 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: listen to it, I sound so young. I sound very nervous, 112 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: but I also sound very street, you know. And before 113 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: we started the spelling Bee, he said, so, you know, 114 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: this guess kid Justin has a past. But we're not 115 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: really sure what's going on, but he's got some cool 116 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 1: stories of when he thought he was a criminal. Because 117 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: that's how I positioned it. I didn't position it as 118 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: hey like, I got arrested many times, I had been jail, 119 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: you know, I'm in recovery. None of that. It was 120 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: more of a jokey thing like, hey like, one time 121 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: I tried to be a criminal and this happened, and 122 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: it was the story of I was. I was a teenager. 123 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: I wasn't twenty one yet, but where I grew up 124 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: in Malden, we had Pumpsy's Liquors, which was right near me, 125 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 1: and they knew my family just like the convenience store, 126 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: so they would sell me cigarettes for my mom. Before like, 127 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: I was eighteen, and I could buy beer as well. 128 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: And so my dad had injured himself and so he 129 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: couldn't like walk, and so one day he asked me 130 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: to get him beer. Now, mind you, I was strung 131 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: out on opiates. So I had a physical habit, and 132 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: this day that he had asked me to do it, 133 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: I was sick and I had no money, and I 134 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: was literally in the basement like plotting on how I 135 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: could get forty dollars to try to get high. And 136 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: so he called me upstairs and he said, hey, I 137 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: need you to get me some beer case a bud 138 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: light or whatever. No, he drank drank ready for this. 139 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: Oh what was it? Was it bud ice? It was 140 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: one of the buds. Anyway, he goes, I need you 141 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: to get me some beer, but make sure you bring 142 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: me my change. And I was like, okay. So he 143 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: gave me a fifty dollars bill. I remember that. So 144 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: I left the house and I went and got high. 145 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: And on the way back, I was like, I got high, 146 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: I had some more left, and I thought to myself, 147 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: I'm fucked, Like what am I gonna do? I don't 148 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: have change for this dude, and I don't have beer. 149 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: Most importantly, I spent the money. So as I'm walking 150 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: down Highland Ave in Malden by Pumpsy's, there's a guy 151 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: unloading beer from a beer truck. You know, they have 152 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: the truck park with the door open. He goes in, 153 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: he comes out, and so I'm looking and then like 154 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: a bell went off, and I'm like, I could just 155 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: grab a case of beer. So I kind of walked 156 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: by and looked to see what kind of beer was 157 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: in there. When the guy went in, and I saw 158 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: bud but I really wasn't sure, but something was better 159 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: than nothing. So when the dude went in one of 160 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: the times, I ran up, grabbed the case off the back, 161 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: and ran home. So I get home, I go in 162 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: through the front door. I put the bear down. I 163 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: think my dad was like in the bathroom or something, 164 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: and then I went downstairs to continue using whatever I 165 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: had left a little while I went by, I hear 166 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: him screaming my name at the top. So I went 167 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: upstairs and he's I just remember the look on his 168 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: face of like complete bewilderment. The case was empty. It 169 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: was all empty Bear bottles, because not only do they 170 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: deliver the beer full, they also would take back the 171 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: empties for recycle. So I didn't know. I was full 172 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: of adrenaline. I mean, I mean, they weren't clinking. I 173 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: just didn't really realize it. I was also high as 174 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: a kite and so he was pursed and kicked me 175 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: out of the house. So that was the first story 176 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: I told. And the other one was the fake ID story, 177 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 1: which I think I told on the show recently, so 178 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: I won't tell that again. But that was my first 179 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: time on the air, and then I was on a 180 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: lot after that because they would have me do stunts. 181 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: They would send me out to do things. Obviously, this 182 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: is a story where they made me go down to 183 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: the Bruins parade or it was about to be the parade. 184 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: The news was down there. I had to get on 185 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: TV on the news take my shirt off right on 186 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: my chest. It was completely embarrassing, but I did it. Yeah, 187 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: they would like send me to do different things, and 188 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: that was like the first time I had been on 189 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: the air. So just to read back on where I 190 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: was at, kind of new in the business. I had 191 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: some production work that I did, you know, some audio 192 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: stuff that I had produced, which I listened back to 193 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 1: now and I'm like, man, I could have done way 194 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: better than that, because I didn't know. I was just learning. 195 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: But back then it was so it was so fucking 196 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: cool to me. You got to imagine that it was 197 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: so cool, like I always tell the story my first 198 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: day as an intern. I came in, I sat down 199 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: five am. I was watching little Ashley, who works on 200 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: the gym in morning show. Now she was an intern. 201 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: She had been there for about a year, and she 202 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: was show me different things. And then the show started 203 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: at six and the intro music for the Romero show 204 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: started and I just couldn't believe it. I started to 205 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: well up, and they get emotional about it because think 206 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: about where my life was and where it was now 207 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 1: this was really happening. I was really in a radio 208 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: station on a morning show. I grew up listening to 209 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: these shows. Two Kiss Went Away, Maddie in the Morning, Romero. 210 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: So it was just a wild moment, and I'll never forget. 211 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: I kind of was in that moment where I was 212 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: yawning and trying not to seem like I was crying, 213 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: and she goes like, you, okay. She could tell something 214 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: was up, and I'm like, yeah, I'm just just really tired. 215 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: I used to getting up this early, so yeah, I 216 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: don't know. It's just cool. If you want the link, 217 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: I'll send it to you so you can read it. 218 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: It's a fascinating look into the early days of justin. 219 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: So other than that, things are going well on the show, 220 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: busy as ever, there's always stuff going on behind the scenes, 221 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: stuff that is not for the podcast, but just not 222 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: necessarily with our radio station, but just all of the 223 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: radio stations. It's a workplace. So there's always drama going 224 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: on with different things that I try to stay out of. 225 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: But I seem to be the one that everybody wants 226 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: to tell, if that makes sense, as if I'm like 227 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: something kind of confidant. And I think that's because they 228 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: know I'm a lock box. You know, I'm not going 229 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: to tell the secrets of whatever they're telling me. And uh, 230 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I like to think that I'm easy 231 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 1: to talk to. I'm non judgmental, because who am I 232 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: to judge anybody about anything? All the bullshit that I've 233 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 1: done in my life and mistakes that I've made, I 234 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: judge nobody. I'm really good at like when someone does 235 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: something really messed up, you know, giving them the benefit 236 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: of the doubt. You know. I do my best to 237 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: do that because look where I came from. So yeah, 238 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: there's always stuff going on, people coming into my studio 239 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: and talking to me about different different things going on. 240 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 1: We also had Katie on who is the phone screener here? 241 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: We had around last week and it was really cool, 242 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: like hearing her story and where she came from. 243 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 2: People like that, Hey, Justin leaving you a talkback for 244 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 2: the after show. I just listened to that interview with Katie. 245 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 2: You know, I'm sixty five years old now, but I 246 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 2: used to work in a theater and I was a 247 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 2: manager of a theater company in Boston for many, many years, 248 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 2: and I have to say she would have been top 249 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 2: of my list to hire. Oh my gosh, what a 250 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: go get her. What a positive attitude. Oh Katie, You're 251 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: gonna go far. Just keep it up, girl. 252 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: M Yeah, Katie's cool. Man. She's very young, very very 253 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 1: well spoken for her age. I think she's only twenty 254 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: two years old, twenty three, maybe just got out of college, 255 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 1: kind of making her way, got an opportunity, met McKay 256 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: McCabe hired her. So she's here. She's part time. She 257 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: answers our phones. She's gonna be working kind of at 258 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: all the radio stations. And Yeah, she was really cool, 259 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: really enjoyed her. 260 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 3: Talkback is for Justin and Katie. I just listened to 261 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 3: the welcome Katie after show podcast and you guys saying 262 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 3: huh back and forth. It's sending me because who up 263 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 3: here means like the woman's downstairs area. So there's actually 264 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 3: an underwear brand called Huh as well. So yeah, no, 265 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 3: it does not mean like rendezvous or a big party 266 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 3: or anything. The woman's lady bitch. 267 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: Yes, Katie used the phrase ho ha when she was 268 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: on the podcast, so that's what she's referring to. So yeah, 269 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: we'll have her back. We'll have producer Riley on soon. 270 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: Billy's on the phone in there doing lord knows what. 271 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: But Billy and I are going on a guy's night 272 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 1: this weekend, Saturday night. We're going to a cage fighting event. 273 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: He invited me to because it's up near me. It's 274 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: in Manchester, so I think I'm gonna be like ringside 275 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: or right up close to watch people smash each other's 276 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: faces in. So that should be fun. We'll be talking 277 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: about that on the show this week and then next 278 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: weekend going to laugh Boston to see Vinnie from the 279 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: Jersey Shore. I like the Jersey Shore. I like them all. 280 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: I watched it when it was first out. But my 281 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: wife is a super massive fan of all of them. 282 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: And now Vinnie's a comedian, so he's got to show 283 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: at Laugh Boston. So we're gonna go double date with 284 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: two friends of ours and we're gonna go check out 285 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 1: Vinnie and hopefully hopefully stay out for the night again 286 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: and get a hotel room and spend some quality time together. 287 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: So that should be fun. So I got things coming up, man, 288 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: And then at Ruba. Ruba's coming up March sixteenth. I'm 289 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: so excited for that as well. A lot of good 290 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: stuff coming up, a lot of things to be grateful for. 291 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: You know, the world's a really fucked up place, you know, 292 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: but we do our best to navigate through it. And 293 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: I think a positive attitude is the key, that's the ticket. 294 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: You know. You could think negatively about everything, but then 295 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: what does that do? Doesn't make anything better? But if 296 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: we can try to think about the glass half full 297 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: that kind of perspective, it makes things a lot easier. 298 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: That's all I'll say about that. So send you talkbacks 299 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: in as always. Tomorrow there will be an apt to 300 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: show podcast and we'll chat, So leave you questions, comments, 301 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: all that stuff, and I love you guys.
