1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: It's night Side with Dan Ray.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 2: I'm telling you Pis and Boston's Beach Radio.

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 1: After eleven hour, eleven o six and forty three seconds.

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: It's time flies when you're involved with night Side, either

5
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 1: on this side or that side.

6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 2: Of the microphone, open lines. Talk about anything you.

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 1: Like and some of the things we've been mentioning we

8
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: talked about. It's a wide range of things. The competition

9
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: kind of between south Shore bar pizza and north Shore

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: Beats pizza, and the curious difference between north Shore and

11
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: south Shore people.

12
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 2: I'm north.

13
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: I'd like to hear more about how the south Shore

14
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: folks are different. And we did hear from Boston Bob

15
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: who talked about his brush with death, and he very

16
00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: elegantly told his story and it urged folks to give blood.

17
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: I used to be involved with the blood drive. I

18
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: used to work at a station called WBCN.

19
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 2: We did a blood drive every year and it was

20
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: a it's a pretty big deal.

21
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: That's one sad thing about wbcnbing gunness that blood drive.

22
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: Alex and Millis sorry first, it's James and Brockton. Didn't

23
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: mean to panic you there, James, Hi, James, Hey.

24
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: No panic at all Merry Christmas, whatever holiday it is,

25
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: you celebrate, Happy holidays to everybody. But I was listening

26
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 3: on my way home and listening to your conversations, and

27
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 3: there was a caller that called in. You talk about

28
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 3: the North and South Shore people and how they don't mix,

29
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 3: and you know, I would say that's a pretty inaccurate

30
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 3: statement because I've worked in both of.

31
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 4: The communities, you know, the North.

32
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 3: Shaw and the South Show, and you know, they're all

33
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 3: you know, we all get along. It's not that we

34
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: don't mix. I think maybe just maybe different mentality or

35
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: different backgrounds. What I've come to notice is that a

36
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 3: lot of the North people, north Shore people may have

37
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 3: migrated south from the you know, the Mains and the

38
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 3: Hampshires and Vermonts and Canada there you go that too,

39
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 3: just you know, looking for a lomer climate, and a

40
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 3: lot of people from the Boston area they like to

41
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 3: move south. I guess everybody just likes to move south.

42
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 3: But you know, I've worked in all those communities and

43
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: I just get along with everybody there. And you know,

44
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 3: I just wanted to keep this short because my dattery's

45
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 3: beeping at me and I'm gonna lose my connections soon.

46
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 3: But uh, that's my take on it.

47
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: Okay, that's great, that's that's very good. I hadn't thought

48
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: about that fact. Everybody wants to move south a notch.

49
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: So Bostonians goes south to the South Shore and the

50
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: South Coast, and people from New Hampshire just kind of

51
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: come down to the north Shore.

52
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: Everybody wins, well, everybody wins.

53
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 3: It could be but you know, it's not that we

54
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 3: don't click. I mean I click with everybody you know,

55
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 3: and you know a lot of people if you just

56
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 3: have an open minded listen, you know, everybody get along

57
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 3: just fine.

58
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 2: Good for you. There should be more people like you.

59
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 3: What do you do for a living that you work

60
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 3: in healthcare?

61
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 2: Healthcare? Good for you?

62
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: Well, yes, James, thank you so much for what you do,

Speaker 5: And you know, it's a it's a beautiful you know,

86
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 5: it's a beautiful life. As they say. I was gonna

87
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 5: say a couple of things. I have no problem with

88
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 5: people from the North Shore, although I grew up in

89
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 5: the city and then I moved out here, which is

90
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 5: more you know, a country and a lot more bedroom

91
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 5: community and I sort of like it. You know, I

92
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 5: don't like big cities. I don't like living close to

93
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 5: you know, the neighbor Not that I have anything against them,

94
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 5: but you know, you have like a football field of

95
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 5: distance between the neighbors, and I think that's pretty cool.

96
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: You know, that's something I can't imagine that I would

97
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: I would feel strangely vulnerable.

98
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 2: I live in an apartment way high up. That makes

99
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 2: me feel feel safe. I feel if I.

100
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: Lived in a regular home like where you probably live, Yeah,

101
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: with windows on the first floor that people could break into,

102
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: I'd be I'd be nervous.

103
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 2: I'd be hearing sounds that I would be worried about it.

104
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 5: I'm not trying to pat myself on the back, but

105
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 5: this town, we've left our garage door open before. You know,

106
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 5: sometimes you don't unlock it. Uh, you know, very rarely.

107
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 5: Uh there's there's very like minuscule crime. So and the

108
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 5: neighbors are, you know, watch out for each other. You know.

109
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 2: Well that's good, good, Yeah, that's great.

110
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 5: And I was gonna say, uh, as far as you

111
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 5: know a couple of things.

112
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 6: Uh.

113
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 5: You know they say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Well,

114
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 5: in my instance, I had like three episodes, and thank god,

115
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 5: I'm back to normal. The first one was I had

116
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 5: a thing called because I had a fib but I

117
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 5: didn't realize that uh it, you know, and I had

118
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 5: to have a procedure and within a month before Thanksgiving,

119
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 5: over over a year ago, I wound up.

120
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: You know.

121
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 5: At first I got disoriented and my wife took me

122
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 5: to Newton Wellesley and I don't know what was going on,

123
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 5: and I had like a little blockage in the back

124
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 5: of my you know, ottery in the back of my neck.

125
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 5: And thank god, you know, they got me there, and

126
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 5: you know they I'm like, I say, one hundred percent,

127
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 5: but you know, I don't take anything for granted anymore.

128
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: As I was telling Shane running the Mester Control here tonight,

129
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: by the way, thank you. You never know what happened

130
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 1: to Bob. And I don't mean to panic anybody, but

131
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: what happened to you, what happened to Bob could happen

132
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: to anyone at any time.

133
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 2: So the main point.

134
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: Is the takeaway is you got something I want to do,

135
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,919
Speaker 1: do it now, and really don't worry about the money.

136
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: Don't sweit the money too much. You know, it's better

137
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: to do it and try to earn the money back.

138
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 2: Then we have regret.

139
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I want to try sky to I mean,

140
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 5: I gotta just get clearance. But that's on my bucket list.

141
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: Oh man, I would never do that. My brother does it. Yeah, yeah,

142
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: and he said you should try it. Bread No way,

143
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: I know, I know my limits are. Actually I learned

144
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: a lesson one time because from my radio station WBC

145
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: and back in the.

146
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 2: Day, they said, do you want to do bungee.

147
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: Jumping as part of her promotion and I said, no way,

148
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: no way. But when I got to the bungee jumping place,

149
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: which was over in South Boston near the milk.

150
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 5: Bottle, oh yeah, yeah.

151
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 2: It was a big crane. I was one hundred and

152
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 2: fifty foot crane.

153
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: Yep, and there was a cherry picker that tack you

154
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 1: up and you jump off.

155
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: And it didn't look so bad went from the ground.

156
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: But the minute I got up like ten feet, I

157
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: regretted it instantly, And I said to myself at that point,

158
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: never again doubt your gut when it comes to this stuff.

159
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: If it's if you don't, if you don't want to,

160
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: just if you say no initially, stick with it. And

161
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: so nothing's gonna nothing's going to get me to skydive.

162
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: And I get that it's much safer than crossing the street,

163
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: and it's probably much safer than crossing the street in

164
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: Boston with the way, with the way that motor scooters

165
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: are are allowed to break the law. But I'm still

166
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: not doing it.

167
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 2: No way.

168
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: Even if even if I knew it was one one

169
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: hundred percent safe, I still wouldn't do it because the

170
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 1: sensation would be just too awful for me.

171
00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 2: No way.

172
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: I mean, standing in that little doorway before you jump out,

173
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: it's got to be scary. I don't see how you

174
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: could do it, but good out.

175
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 5: I'm not sure, but I'm thinking of it, so I'll hopefully,

176
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 5: Well let.

177
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 2: Me, you know, make sure you keep us posted.

178
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: Maybe you can do a live broadcast when you jump out.

179
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 5: That's not that I actually did. I have bungee jump,

180
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 5: but not from uh it was like from eighty feet.

181
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 5: It was on too a uh what.

182
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 7: Do you call it?

183
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 5: A trampoline? You know, on a beach when I was overseas.

184
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 2: You know, trampoline. Yeah, that's crazy.

185
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 5: And I did. I did a what's called a paraglide.

186
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 5: It looks like it looks like a big height with

187
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 5: wings and you go with the instructor and we flew,

188
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 5: We walked off a cliff or ran off with this

189
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,719
Speaker 5: thing uh, and you land on the beach, so I'd

190
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,679
Speaker 5: say it was like about one hundred few feed up.

191
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 2: You're a regular thrill seeker. That's I'm not going to

192
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 2: do that either.

193
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 5: Well I'm married, so that's another thing.

194
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 2: So that's a So you does that make you want

195
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 2: to do it more or no?

196
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 5: No, I just I just enjoy I think every every moment.

197
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 5: You know, I say, you know, anything I see that

198
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 5: sounds is adventurous or you know, get your adournaline going.

199
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 5: I want to do it, you know. I mean, it's

200
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 5: just it's just how how I'm wired. I don't know.

213
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 8: Well.

214
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 7: I think we all lost you right around when COVID

215
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:19,319
Speaker 7: struck and you know your vanished. But I was at

216
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 7: a family function and I was listening to you on

217
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 7: the radio and I wrote down when I got home,

218
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 7: I wrote down things that you used to talk about.

219
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 7: You know you're oh our a tech in New Hampshire.

220
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 7: Weren't you a tech?

221
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 2: Yes?

222
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: I was a pallurgical technician. I did that right out

223
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: of high school. I was seventeen and I went to

224
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: school in Conquers, New Hampshire.

225
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 2: That's right, thank you, right?

226
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 7: And I remember that. And then I wrote down another

227
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 7: thing when you when you were on BC, you used

228
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 7: to talk about I worked in the hospital as a

229
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 7: respiratory therapist and the thing is the putting things in

230
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,959
Speaker 7: a refrigerator. Do you remember things? That was another topic

231
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 7: you did about. You know, things that we're in a

232
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 7: refrigerator that stayed for one hundred years and nobody knew

233
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 7: who took them out. That was one topic you did well.

234
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: And that in the workplace, people bring stuff in there

235
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: and nobody dares to throw it out, and nobody knows

236
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: what to do, so it just collects and stinks, right.

237
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 7: And then I'm riding home and I was thinking, So

238
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 7: when I got in my house, you were talking about pizza.

239
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 7: And then I wrote down Handcock Tabing in Quincy, the

240
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 7: Filehouse in.

241
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 2: Quincy, the pizza of these places, regular pizza.

242
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 7: No did the bo pizza when I was writing home,

243
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 7: and then when I and then town Spot lynn Wood

244
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 7: and then now the ten Randolph. You know. So these

245
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 7: are all good pizzas, you know, because I've been to

246
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 7: all these pizzas, and I missed you after COVID happened

247
00:12:58,520 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 7: because I worked through COVID.

248
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god, you were in the healthcare

249
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 2: industry during COVID.

250
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 7: I was, but I was in the neonatal particle.

251
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 9: But that's terrible, that's really because but they took two

252
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 9: of our neon natal therapist and moved them over to

253
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 9: the adult side, you know, so that made it a

254
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 9: little harder for the people on the NICKU side to

255
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 9: hear for the new names.

256
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 7: So during that time and then new physical way, I

257
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 7: don't know what happened to you because I used to

258
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 7: work nice.

259
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

260
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 7: Well I'm here, I'm here, No, I know, So I

261
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 7: that's why I'm I, you know, do things on on

262
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 7: the radio when i'm you know, I listened to gm

263
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 7: A and certain things and I was coming home from

264
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 7: family function and I thought, oh my god, I gotta

00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 7: I gotta call in and just say what do you

266

Speaker 7: to know since we found you, okay, and so go.

275
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,280

00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: E yjy dot org. It has it all there. But

277
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: I will also tell you I run a travel channel

278
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: on YouTube. It's not monetized or anything. It's just for fun.

279
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: Where during COVID, I took all this footage I had

280
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: and made one hundred and fifty videos of travel destinations

281
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 1: and everywhere from Cairo, Egypt, to Morocco to Jordan to Russia.

282
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: And so they're all there. I narrate them. There's original

283
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: music that I made. Also, I completed an album with

284
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: a collaborator. The band is called Bridge Bender. It's on Spotify.

285
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: And I'm only telling you this stuff because.

286
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 7: You asked, and you know what, and I think a

287
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 7: lot of people didn't know that. So I hope you

288
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 7: know that I asked the question, and you know, I

289
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 7: hope everybody enjoys what you just said to everybody. And

290
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 7: I'm glad I just called, and you know, and I

291
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 7: had a very merry Christmas and always enjoyed, you know,

292
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 7: listening to you at nighttime because I was in the

293
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 7: respiratory tarifast. I'll let you go and enjoy the rest

294
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 7: of your program and I'll continue to listen. All right,

295
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 7: good night, Thank you.

296
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 2: Very much, beautiful. This is fun now.

297
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: It's as you can tell, it's fun for me because

298
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: we have a community here, and again, it's it's cool

299
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: to just listen and be a passive member of the community.

300
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: But if you're somebody that's looking for more interaction, more

301
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: human connection, and you're shy about calling, get over that shyness.

302
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 2: Just do it.

303
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: Be a big boy or girl or whatever, and get

304
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: over the shyness and call six seven two four thirty,

305
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: because when you do, you'll have a voice, and you'll

306
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: have a brand new, very big, very cool community. Six one, seven,

307
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: two five four open lines. Don't talk about anything you want.

308
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: I did. It was fun for me to talk about

309
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: the bar, pizza, the in the beach pizza, north Shore

310
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: versus South Shore. You know, I'm a No Shore guy,

311
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: but Boston Bob's description of north Shore beach pieza pizza

312
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: made it sound pretty lame. I guess I'm gonna have

313
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: to this this summer. I'm gonna try some of those.

314
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll do a whole personal little tour. I will

315
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: say that the pizza culture down in the South Shore

316
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: is much more detailed and much more robust. It's a

317
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: whole thing, and it's not just about the pie. It's

318
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: about It's tribal, is what it is.

319
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: Humans. They got to be tribal, no matter what.

320
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: If there's nothing to be tribal about and fight over,

321
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: humans will make something.

322
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,479
Speaker 2: To be tribal about. That's what sports is.

323
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: Tribalism there it is. Humans gotta be tribal. Are chipmunks

324
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: and squirrels that tribal?

325
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 2: Who knows?

326
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:25,360
Speaker 1: Right?

327
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 2: I don't know.

328
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 1: Birds seem like they might be kind of tribal, but

329
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: we know that the humans are six thirty. I have

330
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: a little bit of a personal dilemma. I might as

331
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:42,239
Speaker 1: well unleash on you during this open line period. I

332
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: have the time now, and why not tell you a

333
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: little story and then I have to make a decision

334
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: based on that story. I'll give you the story before

335
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 1: the break, and I'll ask you what I should do.

336
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 1: This is a genuine thing that I really don't know

337
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 1: what to do, and there's some significant amount of money involved.

338
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 2: So here's the story back. Oh, I don't know. In

339
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 2: the two thousands, I guess.

340
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: I was a DJ DJ clubs that I learned to

341
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: use this program where I could chop pieces of songs

342
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: up and make mashups. So I became really good at

343
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: making mashups. And a drummer said, hey, why don't I

344
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 1: play drums along with you?

345
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 2: His named Steve.

346
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: Why don't I play drums along with you and we'll

347
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: go and we'll make it a performance. I said, yeah,

348
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: we did that, and then we actually hired dancers. It

349
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: was a whole and we had video and it became

350
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: a whole thing, and we got gigs at the Paradise

351
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 1: and the Middle East Middle East. Downstairs, we played the

352
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: Hemphest three three times, I think, with thousands of people.

353
00:18:58,960 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 2: It was cool.

354
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: So I would do these live mashups on the computer.

355
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: I'd do them live, and then gradually we mixed in

356
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: original music, and then we got a guitar player and

357
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: it became quite a thing. We rehearsed. I was very

358
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:25,959
Speaker 1: diligent about my rehearsal. Steve's a piano refinisher and there

359
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: are not many left. He's probably the best in the world.

360
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: And he's a drummer. He is actually developing his own

361
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: line of snare drums made of metal with a particular

362
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: hardware arrangement. But we getting to the point here. Don't worry.

363
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 2: One of my.

364
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 1: Bucket list items was to perform with a band in

365
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,719
Speaker 1: a foreign country. So we'd performed around here and it

366
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: was great. I think I loved the Paradise and shout

367
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 1: out to Billy Budd, the guy was the Paradise manager forever.

368
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 2: He liked us. I mean to be on stage playing

369
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 2: the Paradise.

370
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: And that was actually when I learned to make video,

371
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: because couldn't get anyone to make a video of our shows.

372
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: It was like pulling teeth. It was being beholden too somebody.

373
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,919
Speaker 1: It was being dependent. So I decided to learn to

374
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: make video myself. And that's why I started to choose

375
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: Apple products, because the Apple store had opened and they

376
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 1: were teaching people how to make video using Final Cup Pro.

377
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: They had these free classes and everything. They were so

378
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: cool that I would take the class and they let

379
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,160
Speaker 1: me work on their computers at the store and I'd

380
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,719
Speaker 1: sit there four or five hours a day for like

381
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: three weeks making my first video. It was the band

382
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: was called thunder Brothers and there is a video out

383
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 1: there that exists. So I made the video. We were

384
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: pretty good. And the point is I had a bucket

385
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 1: list desire to perform in another country.

386
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 2: So Steve.

387
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 1: He had connections because he toured Europe with his other bands.

388
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: He had connections. He got to say, gig in Holland.

389
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: So so this little project had grown and grown and grown,

390
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: and now we had a gig in Holland. It was

391
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 1: a huge deal. We rehearsed and we rehearsed a lot.

392
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: But for some reason, and I don't really remember why,

393
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: Steve said I'll pay for the plane ticket, and I

394
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: don't know if he sent I don't know if I

395
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 1: was expressing nervousness about the price of the plane ticket.

396
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: I don't know how that happened to be, but he said,

397
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to buy the plane ticket.

398
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 2: I'll buy the plane.

399
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: Ticket, and I felt funny about that. I didn't feel

400
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 1: right about accepting that, but I did accept it.

401
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 2: Like shit, I could have paid it, but he offered.

402
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 2: I write.

403
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: Since that time, I felt kind of like I should

404
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: have said no, I should have paid for it, and

405
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: he's such a good guy.

406
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 2: And now ever since that time, I felt guilty about that.

407
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 2: So now I'm trying to decide.

408
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: Should I pay him back now for that it's about

409
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: seven hundred bucks, it was six hundred dollars and something back.

410
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: Then should I just say, dude, I never I need

411
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: to pay you back for this, or not?

412
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 2: Say am I being overly guilty? Because sometimes I get

413
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 2: that way.

414
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 1: I feel like I need to pay for stuff that

415
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: I don't really need to pay for, Like sometimes when

416
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 1: I go on a birthday, well my wife takes me

417
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: on a birthday thing, I feel I need to pay

418
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 1: her back, which I don't.

419
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 2: So I don't know what do you think.

420
00:22:54,160 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: Should I pay Steve back for that airplane ticket or not?

421
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: It's a sizeable chunk of money, and I don't want

422
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,920
Speaker 1: to do it if I'm just being paranoid. So I

423
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: saw him the other day and I thought, I'm going

424
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 1: to do it. But just before that, I had gotten

425
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: a gift and an unrelated thing. I've gotten a gift

426
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: for someone, and I thought, oh, they're really gonna like this.

427
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: It wasn't a Christmas gift. It was just a thoughtful gift.

428
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 1: And I won't say exactly what it was in case

429
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 1: these people are listening. I don't want them to know

430
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 1: that I'm telling them their story. But the reception was

431
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: kind of yah, is that kind of like oh, huh, okay, thanks?

432
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 2: And I thought, wait a minute.

433
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: I thought I was doing the right thing getting this

434
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,360
Speaker 1: little gift, and I think I'm doing the right thing

435
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 1: maybe paying this airfare back of seven hundred bucks. I

436
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: am at a loss as to what to do. I

437
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 1: don't want to pay it back if I'm being just

438
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: being paranoid.

439
00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 2: But I don't want to have.

440
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: To feel guilty every time I see Steve either. So

441
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: if you want to help me out, that's cool. If not,

442
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: I'll figure it out on my own. We'll take a

443
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: break now. Maybe I'll even ask Shane, the guy running

444
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: the person running the masters control thing. And I actually

445
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: might decide based on what you say, because I am

446
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 1: completely in the dark on this one. Am I am

447
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: I overthinking this? Am I overworrying about it? Should I

448
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 1: let it go? Or should I say, dude, it's seven

449
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 1: hundred bucks. I've owed this to you for a long time.

450
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 1: I have to actually think how I will feel after.

451
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 1: And I suppose it depends on his reaction. And it

452
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 1: shouldn't depend on his reaction. It should be me just

453
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: doing the right thing regardless, regardless of the reaction.

454
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 2: And I guess it's the same with that.

455
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 1: Gift that I gave that I got to the other person,

456
00:24:55,640 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: for which I got kind of a lukewarm response. I'll

457
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 1: tell you one thing, I'm not just buying gifts for

458
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 1: people anymore. It wasn't worth it. I just thought it

459
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: was going to be so great. They would say, oh,

460
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: how thoughtful. That's so thoughtful, and they kind of went

461
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 1: yeah after it.

462
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 2: They thank me for it, of course, like polite people do.

463
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 2: But it didn't. It didn't hit the mark. Maybe it

464
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:21,679
Speaker 2: was me.

465
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 1: Maybe it was a ham fisted, blind kind of gift.

466
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: Maybe it wasn't a great gift. I don't know which

467
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 1: kind of brings me to the bigger picture. Maybe I'm

468
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: a terrible gift giver, and that's kind of way I've

469
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: gotten away from giving gifts and receiving gifts.

470
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 2: On Christmas.

471
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: A long time ago, I convinced my family, let's not

472
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: do the gifts, let's pend up money on a great meal.

473
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: And things have been simpler since. But what do you

474
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 1: think should I pay that guy back? Six one, seven,

475
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: two four ten thirty is Deputy BS.

476
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 2: Night Side with Dan Ray on WBS Boston's news radio.

477
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: If you're just joined us during the break, I have

478
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: this quick dilemma. I'll reoutline it quickly. A long time ago,

479
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: I went with a bandmate to do a gig in

480
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: Holland he paid the airfare. I felt a little guilty

481
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 1: about having him pay and it's kind of bothered me

482
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: for years now, maybe like fifteen eighteen years, and I

483
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: keep wondering if I should pay him back or would

484
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 1: that be weird somehow? I asked Shane Master, control operator

485
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: here he goes. He said it's been so long that

486
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: he would lean to not doing it because because of

487
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: the time that had passed. But so that's the first

488
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: input I get. Now we have Melinda and Quincy Quinsy.

489
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 8: Melinda, Hello, Hi, Hi, Hi on your question here.

490
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, I would say you definitely talk, just definitely take

491
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,199
Speaker 10: care of it, because if it's been bothering you a

492
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 10: long time, then you should go ahead. And do you

493
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 10: ever talk to this guy?

494
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 6: Oh?

495
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I talked to him. I had coffee the other day.

496
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 10: Okay, then okay, So I would say, you know what,

497
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 10: I really feel bad about the time that I brought up,

498
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 10: you know, paying for something. Oh and I mean that

499
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 10: he said he would pay for something and then I

500
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,719
Speaker 10: went ahead with it, and it still bugs me. And

501
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 10: see what he says.

502
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 1: I could no, No, if I if I go that fire,

503
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: then I'm going to have to pay him, so which

504
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: I kind of want to do. What about this? What

505
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: about this other scenario? I just say, oh, by the way,

506
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: here's this check. I uh, I owe you for the fight.

507
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: I never paid you fifteen years ago.

508
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 2: Here you go. I think that might be classier.

509
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 10: Just do it, don't but I think it's class You'd

510
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 10: be honest. If you're saying fifteen years ago, he's going

511
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,200
Speaker 10: to be He's simply going to say, dude, we already

512
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 10: talked about this. I took him of it him fifteen

513
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 10: years ago. I'd want to be honest and say, you

514
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 10: know what bothers me. It bothers me because I have

515
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 10: a situation in my life that's gone on since I

516
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 10: was twenty that bothered me that I didn't do.

517
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:16,120
Speaker 9: And that situation, it's that it's.

518
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 10: It's gonna sound so stupid. Why it got to me

519
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 10: when you said it. What happened? Well, when I was twenty,

520
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 10: quickly I was dating a guy, a boyfriend. He became

521
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 10: became my boyfriend, and he one night came to my

522
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 10: house and he had put on had someone detail his

523
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 10: car on my on my side of the door with

524
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 10: a nickname he gave me, and and his side had

525
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 10: his name. And so when I went out and saw it,

526
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 10: I thought it was great, but I didn't act the

527
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 10: way I should have. When I think about it today,

528
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 10: I say, oh my god, that was today. No one

529
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 10: the never mind, no one would can go through and whatever.

530
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 10: That this guy was so great that he would do that.

531
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 2: You should have been more. If you should, you should

532
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 2: have wonderful.

533
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, And that's how I am now. But I was

534
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 10: I was shyer than and I also did not want

535
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 10: to get married. At the time. I was only twenty

536
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 10: and I know he was going down that road and

537
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 10: I just I just a was scared of it. But

538
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 10: I think I just got quiet. I got well, I

539
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 10: didn't get quiet, but I wasn't as the way I

540
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 10: am now. I would jump on and go, oh my god,

541
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 10: I'd be like wow, but but then I didn't. So

542
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 10: eventually broke up. And now to this day, I'm like,

543
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 10: you should. I wish I could tell him, just tell him.

544
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 10: No one's ever come close to the day I walked

545
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 10: out to that car and saw my name on that door.

546
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 10: That's incredible. I mean, no one's ever done anything like that.

547
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 10: And it just I'm always like, if I ever get

548
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 10: a shot, if I ever find him, I'm going to

549
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 10: say how much that meant to me. So when you

550
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 10: were saying what you were saying, I'm like, I've gone

551
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 10: how many years now, from twenty to now thinking about that,

552
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 10: not every day or anything, but.

553
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 2: From my mind, fifty years is a long time.

554
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 10: It comes along. But you got me now too old.

555
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 10: But anyway, A nice try, Brad, But let's see. So anyways, yeah,

556
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 10: I'm thinking when you said that, I'm thinking, if I

557
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 10: think about my thing and that bothers me, I would

558
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 10: want that off my chest. I would think that if

559
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 10: it's bugging you, what's seven hundred bucks. If it's bugging you, well,

560
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 10: seven hundred bucks.

561
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 2: Is quite a lot. But it's probably worth it to

562
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 2: get that.

563
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 10: It absolutely is, because if you're doing the right thing

564
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 10: in your mind, if you're doing if you do what

565
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 10: you feel, it's bugging you, and it's come on. For

566
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 10: the point is, it's been a long time. Wasn't a

567
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 10: week ago? And then again, if it was a week ago,

568
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 10: you'd still be you'd start thinking about it either one

569
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 10: way or the other.

570
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 2: The other day. I think he's such a good guy, you.

571
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 7: Know, Yeah, and I and.

572
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 2: Then you get I want to I want to get square.

573
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 2: I guess. Yeah.

574
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: Okay, by the way, in your situation, Melinda, you could

575
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: find this guy.

576
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 2: You know his name.

577
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 10: I found out recently, I believe it or not. Just recently.

578
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 10: I found out from his sister some things where you know,

579
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 10: where he may.

580
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 2: Be, exactly where he would be, right.

581
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think I got it, and I'm going to

582
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 10: do it. I'm totally going to do it. I am

583
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 10: going to say because it's bothered me. I'm going to

584
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 10: say that. You know when you the day you came

585
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 10: by my house with that car and called me outside.

586
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 10: We walked out there and you had my name on

587
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 10: the door. That no one has going to come close

588
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 10: with any guy, you know, Dayton, nobody's ever done anything

589
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 10: like that, just just such a you know, you know that.

590
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 10: I think you're like, really a great guy. You're a

591
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 10: lot of class, and I just think, you know, that's

592
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 10: hard to come by. And I want to say it,

593
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 10: and that's it. I just want it. I don't want

594
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 10: to die not saying it. So excuse me. You think

595
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 10: he's local, No, he's No, he's not. I think he's out.

596
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 7: Uh, I don't know.

597
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 10: We went to college in New York.

598
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:17,959
Speaker 2: Must have his phone number, I mean, you could do this.

599
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 10: I don't have his phone number.

600
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 5: He's married.

601
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 10: I don't have his phone number. I don't want to

602
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 10: start any trouble. I just want to.

603
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,240

00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll say, oh, don't worry about it, but

630
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: I'll say, no, got to do it, That's what I'll say. Look,

631
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: I've never felt quite right about that and this will

632
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: make me feel better. So you're doing yeah, exactly, and

633
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: then I'll say you can buy me a two hundred

634
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: dollars dinner if you want.

635
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 10: That's okay, and then you'll feel guilty about it. Yeah,

636
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 10: then you feel guilty for asking for the two dinner.

637
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 2: Okay, you know, yes, thank you so much.

638
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 10: I mean, I know you're probably kidding, but don't don't

00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 10: say no.

640
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,320

Speaker 10: You might, Yeah, you might feel bad after.

642
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 2: I would never say that would be such a tacky

643
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 2: thing to say.

644
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 9: Yeah.

645
00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 10: Well, yeah, well, sometimes in the moment someone's nerves, they

646
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 10: might say something stupid like that.

647
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: I'm glad we had this conversation, so I want to

648
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: know not to say something dumb like that. And I

649
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 1: need you to do this thing that you need to

650
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: do and contact this person and let them know how

651
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:12,959
Speaker 1: you really felt within.

652
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 2: Forty eight hours. Do it.

653
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:17,399
Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm gonna do it very soon because I don't

654
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 10: want my luck the person to leave Facebook. And then

655
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 10: he just actually got on and I found out from

656
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 10: the sister. So I'm like, you know, I gotta do

657
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 10: this before I know he's married. I don't that's a pathet.

658
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 2: Don't worry about it.

659
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 10: I just want to say thank you for that. That's all.

660
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, yeah, that's gonna be big for him

661
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 1: because he probably felt he probably felt kind of embarrassed

662
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:39,720
Speaker 1: by your reaction.

663
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 2: And one thing I do understand that wasn't mean.

664
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 10: I wasn't mean.

665
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 6: I didn't.

666
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 2: It was damned with faint praise.

667
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 1: As they say you you didn't act excited.

668
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:53,879
Speaker 10: I continued to date, Brad Bradley continue to date. It

669
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 10: wasn't like I was mean and left or you know,

670
00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 10: I just wasn't. Let's just say I wasn't as as

671
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 10: I am nowadays.

672
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 2: So it's going to be thrilling for him, for you,

673
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 2: for him to hear that.

674
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 10: I think you'll feel better, but he might feel ready.

675
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 10: Maybe he is less, but I'll feel better. I know

676
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 10: I'll feel better, all right.

677
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 1: Feeling better. I'll feel better when we take this break

678
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,879

Speaker 1: and fill in Boston. Fill in Boston's first, then we'll

689
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: head up to really cold country on I film.

690
00:35:55,719 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, let's first of all, because you're good, whatever the point,

691
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 6: I agree with you two wonderful things. The first thing

692
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 6: is you can't you don't know what the situation, give

693
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,320
Speaker 6: the people presents. And I've experised that several times in

694
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 6: my life.

695
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: Before you continue, just in case somebody joined us, I

696
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 1: need them to know what we're talking about. A couple

697
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 1: of things. I gave someone to give recently, not a

698
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: Christmas gift, and I was surprised by how man they were,

699
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:28,879
Speaker 1: and it made me think I'm not going to give

700
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 1: any more guests.

701
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 2: Then. The other thing is is.

702
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: Like fifteen eighteen years ago, my bandmate paid my airfare

703
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 1: to a gig and they and I think maybe I

704
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 1: should have paid myself, and I want to should I

705
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: pay him back?

706
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:45,200
Speaker 8: So go.

707
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 2: Ahead?

708
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, I gave him a person as horror story, but

709
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 8: I would look to get back to the second part,

710
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 8: which was you have to talk your talk, you can vote.

711
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 8: Get the guilt of this person's Steven lord of the

712
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 8: name is, But.

713
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 2: He is talking about my feeling guilty he paid.

714
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, but I mean you had breakfast with the

715
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 6: gentleman and he must know you. He's well store right now,

716
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 6: why don't you just give him.

717
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,240
Speaker 8: A Samara box foot fot the difference to get.

718
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 6: It over with.

719
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,800
Speaker 2: Oh there you go, I think I should.

720
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: He's not listening now he probably would have texted me

721
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: he's he's but still, you know, I just wanted to

722
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: get your opinion because I wanted to know if I

723
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 1: was maybe being paranoid, and and it was fine.

724
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 2: I got.

725
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 8: I got other things that people got. Other things are

726
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 8: worry about and talking about how much you owe this

727
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 8: guy and he's listening to you. Probably I was gonna

728
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 8: get one of it. Just talk to him was so

729
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 8: guilty of but it buy him a suitor jacket or

730
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 8: half the money, and just.

731
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 2: Fair enough. I'm gonna write you down with given. I'm

732
00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 2: putting you in the giving.

733
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 8: Back don Yeah, sure, really I am.

734
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 2: And now it's filling Ontario.

735
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: I needed to be kind of quick with phil in Boston,

736
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,760
Speaker 1: because this only have like four minutes filling Ontario.

737
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 2: What's the temperature up there?

738
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 11: The temperatureial up Heyer is minus seven celsius. Now I

739
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 11: don't have a conversion to an imperial on that, but

740
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 11: it's it's cold up here tonight, but not too bad.

741
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 11: It's not too windy, so I'm surviving up here.

742
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:28,399
Speaker 2: Okay, So what'd you call about?

743
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 4: What I called about is I agree with the option

744
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 4: of writing out a check and just having topic with

745
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 4: him sometimes and handing them the check and just saying.

746
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 2: I told you this.

747
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not necessarily the old him, but you just

748
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 4: felt an obligation at the time to pay your way,

749
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 4: and you still feel that obligation, which which is good

750
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 4: of you, and it really represents your values and beliefs

751
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 4: that you would want to rectify that situation all these

752
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 4: years later. There are very few people who would take that,

753
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 4: So I commend you, and I say, just go ahead

754
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 4: and give him the check and if he wants to

755
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 4: then donate it to cherry or something like that, he

756
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,280
Speaker 4: can do with it as he pleases. But I would

757
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 4: just didn't matter addressed.

758
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think thanks to all of you folks, I've

759
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,399
Speaker 1: decided to do it, and Phil in Boston, I really

760
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: am going to do it. Phil was doubting me. Phil

761
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 1: in Boston, he didn't believe me. But it's almost like

762
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 1: every time I see him, I think, oh, man, I

763
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,280
Speaker 1: should I should have paid my own way, I said

764
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: every time.

765
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 4: And so, yeah, just get the matters settled and you

766
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:45,760
Speaker 4: can get on with life.

767
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,280
Speaker 2: I'm glad we had this talk. Tell me about Ontario.

768
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, Ontario, Yeah, yeah. I mean I'm coming from Toronto

769
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,240
Speaker 4: where easy is coming through nice and nice and clear tonight.

770
00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 4: And it's a clear night and it's about minus seven and.

771
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: Seven celsius, which I looked up as isn't that forty

772
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: four fahrenheit.

773
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 2: That's not very cold.

774
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 4: No, it's blow freezing by a few degrees, so I

775
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 4: think it'd be like, uh, maybe twenty eight or something fahrenheit.
