00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: It's Night Side with Dan Ray ONBS Boston's news radio.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 2: Well, thank you very much. Al Griffin. Wow, I don't

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 2: know about you, but I was out today and it

4
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 2: really hit me today that we're in New England and

5
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 2: winter has begun. Now. I know that winter doesn't start

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 2: until around December twenty first, and that has to do

7
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 2: with when the sun crosses the equator, I guess. I

8
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 2: understand all of that. Okay, the winter equinox or whatever,

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 2: or the winter solstice, I guess, and then it's the

10
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 2: vernal and the autumnal equinox, and they will come a

11
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 2: point in time in the next few days, believe it

12
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 2: or not before the twenty first, where the days will

13
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 2: become incrementally longer. We have gotten to the point, and

14
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what the date is. Someone probably knows where.

15
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 2: We will have the shortest day of the year around

16
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 2: I don't know, December fifteenth, and then the next day

17
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: it'll be one minute of sunlight longer in another minute,

18
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 2: and then eventually we will get back to the summertime.

19
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 2: But pretty clear that we are now on the cusp

20
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 2: of winter here in New England, and it's nasty. It

21
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 2: is nasty. I talked with a friend of mine today

22
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: out west and I don't know you know, the question is,

23
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: here's my question. When you woke up today or when

24
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: you went out today, and if you worked outside today,

25
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,559
Speaker 2: God love you. I would love to know what type

26
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 2: of work you did outside today. It had to be brutal,

27
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: it had to be brutal. I know that there are

28
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 2: people who have to work outside, and I suspect that

29
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: as cold as today was, no company said, okay, we'll

30
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: take the day off because it's too cold. Obviously in

31
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 2: the summer there are those days when it is just

32
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: brutally hot. My question is with winter now here, first

33
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: question is do you love it or do you hate it?

34
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 2: Because I suspect that there's no middle ground here. I

35
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 2: tend not to like winter. There are aspects of winter

36
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 2: I like, but I would much prefer to be in

37
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 2: a more temperate climate. Although I am in New Englander

38
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 2: through and through, and there's a few questions I'd like

39
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: to deal with, and I'd love to hear your wisdom

40
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,239
Speaker 2: on it. When you're born here as a New Englander,

41
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 2: as I was, and as probably a lot of you were,

42
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: do you look at yourself at some point in the

43
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 2: miror and say, why am I still living in New

44
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: England in the winter. Now. I know there are a

45
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 2: lot of people who have the means and they're retired

46
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: and they go to South for six months, so they

47
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 2: go south for six weeks. So they go south a

48
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 2: couple of weeks just to break up the winter. But

49
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: I want to hear from as many of you as

50
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 2: possible this hour. Do you love it or do you

51
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 2: hate it? I know there are friends of mine who

52
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: are skiers and this is the best time of the

53
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 2: year because the entire ski season is in front of them.

54
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 2: So I want to talk about that. I see that

55
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 2: we have my friend Craig from Ohio. He's gonna tell

56
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 2: us what the weather's like in Ohio. I think it's

57
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,920
Speaker 2: been just as brutal in Ohio. But obviously we're looking

58
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: at it from the perspective of New England now. Today,

59
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 2: all the WBZ reporters we're out and about and that's

60
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 2: one of the things that reporters have to do. So

61
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: Drew maul Holland was out with someone who was jumping

62
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 2: in the water today. I cannot imagine going to the

63
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 2: beach today, even if you're in the water for five seconds.

64
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: But there are people who do it every day. This

65
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: is a cut number twenty three quick report from Drew

66
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 2: mall Holland about a guy who was I guess taking

67
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 2: a little dip in the ocean today, Cut twenty three.

68
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 3: Rub I think I'll pass on this one. But my

69
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 3: man Chucky Rosa in Seabrook, New Hampshire, jumps in the

70
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 3: ocean every single day for many years now, paying tribute

71
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 3: to those his family included, who have been lost to

72
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 3: drug overdoses. Chucky Rosa doesn't let any weather stop him.

73
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 2: Keep side of the Hampton Bridge.

74
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 4: Real feel is two degrees.

75
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 5: And the waters forwenty.

76
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 2: Seven reason, for a reason.

77
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 3: You can feel that wind from here too, can't you,

78
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 3: Chucky Rosa. Chucky's fight, you can go read about it.

79
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 3: He does a great job jumping in the ocean. Yeah,

80
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,239
Speaker 3: in this weather, Drew maholland WBZ Boston's News Radio.

81
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: Why would anyone in their right mind, anyone in their

82
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 2: right mind jump in the water if it's two degrees Now,

83
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: I suspect it was two degrees with the windshill factor,

84
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 2: But in a lot of places today it didn't get

85
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: on the thermometer anywhere over to James Rojas. He had

86
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: a report from WBC Radio a wrap on some food

87
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 2: delivery people. Well, I don't know today how you keep

88
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: food warm? Uh? I mean you you're on that little

89
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: scooter or your bike and they're there and they're driving

90
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 2: food to you, and it has to be cold by

91
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: time to get it there. Cut twenty four, Rob.

92
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,799
Speaker 4: But that means every time he's picking up and dropping

93
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 4: off orders, he's getting hit by this arctic blast.

94
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: It's cold, bro. It's like it says it's ten degrees

95
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 2: right now, but it's like negative two, negative three with

96
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 2: the with the wind hidden, especially around here.

97
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 4: And around here is at South Street Diner where Jamal

98
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 4: is on host and to go order duty, which means

99
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 4: he's right by the door. I mean I'd be going

100
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 4: in and out for takeout, so I'd be having to

101
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,119
Speaker 4: go outside, which is why he's well layered out. Frank

102
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 4: and Jamal's recommendations for the day.

103
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 2: Some suits just stay hold, they even go to work.

104
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 4: None of that at South Street Diner, James Rojas, WBZ

105
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,799
Speaker 4: Boston Snooze Radio.

106
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: But there are people who have to go to work,

107
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 2: and that's what I want I want to hear from

108
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 2: you if you want to. If you had to go

109
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: to work today, I want to hear if you stayed home,

110
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 2: if you just said, guess what, I'm staying home. Love

111
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 2: to hear from you. Look, we'll have days like this

112
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 2: in January, and we'll have maybe even a couple of

113
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: days like this in February when the thermometer will be

114
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 2: down to ten degrees or whatever it is. However, this

115
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 2: was the first blast of winter, and this is early.

116
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 2: It is not supposed to be this weather the first

117
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 2: week of December, and that's where we are. We're still

118
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 2: three weeks almost three weeks from Christmas. This this could

119
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 2: be a tough winter. This is this. I watched that

120
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 2: tree lighting last night on the Common and it looked miserable. Miserable.

121
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: I want to hear from you six one, seven, two, five,

122
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 2: four ten thirty six one seven, nine three one ten thirty.

123
00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: Gonna go to phone calls right after this quick break

124
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 2: on nightside if do you love it or do you

125
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 2: hate it? I hated it today. I gotta tell you.

126
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 2: I put long John's on and I got a turtleneck on.

127
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 2: I haven't had long John's on or a turtleneck on

128
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: since probably last February. I rifled through a closet. I

129
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 2: found that there were the long Johns. They were clean,

130
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: the turtle neck was clean, and I was as warm

131
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 2: as I could be, as warm as I could be

132
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: under the circumstances. Join the conversation. Let's have a little

133
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 2: fun with it. We're hardy New Englanders, Okay, Come on.

134
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 2: The question is why do we stay here. It's not

135
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: because of the politics, it's not because of the weather,

136
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: and it's certainly not because of the economics, the tax

137
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 2: system and all of that. But we somehow stay. I

138
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: don't know why. We'll be back on Nightside after this.

139
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: Night Side with Dan Ray. I'MBZ Boston's news radio.

140
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 2: Rob just corrected me. Thank you, Rob. The shortest and

141
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 2: longest night of the years on almost here. The winter

142
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 2: solstice marks the first day of winter, ushering in the

143
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 2: colder weather in holiday season. Oh tell me about that.

144
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 2: Colder weather is here already. But daylight saving isn't to blamed.

145
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: The Earth's tilt is when the clock falls back each fall.

146
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 2: We get more daylight in the winter mornings, but it

147
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 2: also means nighttime arrives more quickly. The sun sets earlier

148
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 2: each day into December, culminating in the shortest day of

149
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 2: the year, the winter solstice. According to the National Weather Service,

150
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: the winter solstice occurs when the sun is directly over

151
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 2: the Tropic of Capricorn, which is located at twenty three

152
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 2: point five degrees south of the equator and runs through Australia, Chile,

153
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 2: southern Brazil and northern South Africa. In twenty twenty five.

154
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: This month the winter solstice in the northern Hemisphere. That's

155
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 2: where you folks are right now. We'll be on Sunday,

157
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 2: so that is the shortest day of the year. I

158
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: thought I had read somewhere that the actual shortest day

159
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 2: of the year can occur a couple days before that.

160
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 2: But I was wrong. Rober is right. What else is doing?

Speaker 2: Put Al on hold. We'll come back to All in

00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 5: man on you. I'm a cradle Catholic and I couldn't

174
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 5: imagine being the ice officer and showing up for masks

175
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 5: and seeing that at the Nativity scene.

176
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 2: Well, we're going to talk about that at ten o'clock. Actually,

Speaker 2: the arch disk a let that go No, no, no, no.

178
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 2: The Archdiocese of Boston released a statement today basically telling

179
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 2: the priest that that sign should come down, and basically,

180
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 2: so I you listened to our show last night, I

181
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,520

183
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 2: about it again tonight beginning at ten o'clock. But the

184
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 2: archdiocese reached released a statement today and that that's gonna

185
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 2: come down. And you know, the priest has a right

186
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 2: to think whatever he wants, but the archdiocese, I'll deal

187
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 2: with it at ten and I think you'll you'll appreciate

188
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 2: it because I think I know where you're where you're

189
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 2: coming from. Craig, So, I thought it was really cold

190
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 2: in Ohio. I thought you got some of that polar

191
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 2: vortex weather earlier this week. What's the coldest that's been.

192
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 2: What day was the coldest in Ohio?

193
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 5: Well, on Tuesday we had a lot of snow. Yeah.

194
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 2: I saw all the video trucks, trucks flying all over

195
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 2: the world, cars crashing in it looked like Massachusetts drivers

196
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: had invaded Ohio.

197
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 5: That was northern Ohio. I live in southeast Ohio, Okay,

198
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 5: I'm closer to West Virginia. We got snow and it's

199
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 5: been cold. I mean, I don't know. Maybe it's just

200
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 5: growing up in it, but maybe my memory slipped into something,

201
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 5: But it seems I remember as a kid, if you

202
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 5: didn't have snow by Thanksgiving, you was bumming out.

203
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 6: You know.

204
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: No, I agree things have changed a little bit. I

205
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 2: will tell you this. We had a very bad winter

206
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 2: up here in the winter of twenty fourteen and twenty fifteen.

207
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 2: And in twenty fifteen that was the winter. That January,

208
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 2: it hadn't snown all winter, and it started snowing about

209
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 2: January twentieth and it never stopped. But the year before,

210
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 2: twenty thirteen to twenty fourteen, I remember all the storms,

211
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 2: big snowstorms went through the mid Atlantic States, went through Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio,

212
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 2: Virgini in your Maryland, and all the storms that year

213
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: were to ourselves. So I hope that you're not looking

214
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 2: at that a repeat of the winter of twenty thirteen

215
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 2: and twenty fourteen in your neck of the woods.

216
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 5: Well, I'll tell you this. Two years ago I bought

217
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 5: an eight hundred dollars snow blower has reversed three speed,

218
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 5: whole shooting mat.

219
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, how much? How's your how how's the mileage on

220
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: that thing? How many miles I'm getting.

221
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: That?

222
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 5: I only got to use it twice. Yeah, my neighbor said, hey,

223
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 5: buy another one of those that don't snow. When you do,

224
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,080

Speaker 8: No, good Dan.

Speaker 7: We always learn from you every way.

253
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 9: I know that's a lot of fun.

254
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 7: You never know what you'll learn. Your IQ will always

255
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 7: go up. But you know what I don't like deserve.

256
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 7: I don't like this cold at all. Yeah, And I

257
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 7: was thinking back growing up in Baltimore, we would be

258
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 7: out letting on a particular hill, totally impervious to any

259
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 7: snow or ice or coal.

260
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 10: You know.

261
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 7: But my wife and I lived eighty nine to ninety

262
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 7: four in la and I'm from Maryland, she's from Connecticut.

263
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 7: We're used to the eastern snows and winters.

264
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 5: It was.

265
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 7: It was very novel and enjoyable the first year, but

266
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,359
Speaker 7: then after that we missed the change of seasons.

267
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 2: Well there's something about that. But the problem is that

268
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 2: with when it's great, when the leaves come out and

269
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 2: the flowers arrive in May, and then in the fall

270
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 2: when we get the beautiful foliage. But it's the it's

271
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: the snow that gets me. You know. You were talking

272
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 2: about when you were a kid sledding. Remember in those days,

273
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 2: your mother would dress you. You'd have like a snowsuit on,

274
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 2: you'd have a stocking cap, you'd have boots, you'd have gloves,

275
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 2: and you couldn't get cold, and because you would. But

276
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 2: now you when you're in your twenties and your thirties,

277
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 2: you're beginning your career. And I can remember as a

278
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 2: TV reporter, we wore jackets and ties and suits, and

279
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 2: they were days when I was out and was like

280
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 2: what am I doing here? Why? Where? Why? And then

281
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 2: then you get a little older, you say, well, I'm

282
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 2: going to put on a pair of long drawns today.

283
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 2: And as you get a little older, you wouldn't wear

284
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 2: them in your twenties, but you got to. You said

285
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 2: to yourself, you kind of gave it up and said, no,

286
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be a slave to fashion. I've

287
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 2: never been accused of being a slave to fashion. But

288
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 2: it was cold today. What did you do today? Were

289
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 2: you out and about today?

290
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'd go into people's homes and help them with

291
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 7: a medical things and you know, equipment and just going

292
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 7: in and out of the car. It was terrible and

293
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 7: you want to turn up the heat as soon as

294
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 7: you get in the car and get it going, you know.

295
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 7: But it was good old New England right.

296
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 5: Well.

297
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 2: It hit us, It hit us hard, smacked us in

298
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 2: the face. I can remember there was a year I

299
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: was a young reporter, early eighties, and I remember standing

300
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 2: with there was a reporter of Channel seven who was

301
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 2: our competition. But she's a really nice person, paulas On.

302
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 2: You might remember her and we were both standing somewhere

303
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 2: on something at the common and it was so cold.

304
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: It was just so cold. I mean, it was like

305
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 2: a daily today on early early December day. And I

306
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 2: don't know. I'd love to have one of our meteorological

307
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 2: people go back. You know they talk about if if

308
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 2: the caterpillars are come out early or leave early, or

309
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 2: the squirrels have a bushy tail. That tells you what

310
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 2: I would love to know if somebody could go back,

311
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 2: or somebody has already gone back. And when you get

312
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 2: this weather, this cold, this early in December, is there

313
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 2: a correlation between a tough winter or could it ironically

314
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: be an easy winter. I don't know the answer to that.

315
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 2: But someone, Yeah, between now at ten o'clock is going

316
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 2: to either give us good news or bad news. I'm sure.

317
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 5: Okay, stay tuned.

318
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,159

Speaker 2: the truck. But that's good too. If you've been out

327
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 2: there today, what was it like? And if you had

328
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 2: a nasty job, if you really had a bad job today,

333
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 2: I'm going to I think I'm settling on what we

334
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 2: want to do in the twentieth hour our question. At

335
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 2: the end of the week we'll get to all of that,

336
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 2: I promise and more calls at six one seven, two

337
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,959
Speaker 2: thirty six, one seven nine on a very cold December

338
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,000

00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,120
Speaker 2: Let me go next to Gay Insituate. Hey, Gail, welcome back.

344
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 2: How are you.

345
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 11: I'm fine, Dan, I'm a little I'm not under the weather.

346
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 11: I'm just I've been coughing so you'll have to excuse me,

347
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 11: and I'm a little stuffed up.

348
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 2: I'm the same way. So do not fear. Do not fear.

349
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 2: I've missed you. I haven't talked to you in a while.

350
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 2: So what did you do today? Were you out there

351
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: or nore we out in the midst of this nasty cold?

352
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 10: I was?

353
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 11: I was because of my job. I was, Yeah, I had.

354
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 11: I had to deal with the weather. You know that

355
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 11: there's cold and there's bone chilling cold, and today was

356
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 11: bone chilling cold. It's funny because I before I turned

357
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,239
Speaker 11: on WBZ, I was driving and before I went to

358
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 11: your show. I'm not kidding. I was thinking to myself,

359
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 11: how we have our weather in the summer and the

360
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 11: winter extreme. You know, we have really hot, humid summers

361
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 11: that are are unbearable.

362
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 9: July last July was just awful.

363
00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 11: Yeah, and in our winters our brutally cold. I'm thinking

364
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 11: we don't have it easy. We have an extreme on

365
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 11: both ends and that makes you think about whether or

366
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 11: not you want to stay in Massachusetts. And it's not new,

367
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 11: It's been going on for decades. But to answer your question,

368
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 11: your question is why do people stay here?

369
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 6: Right?

370
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: Is that one of my questions, Yeah, why do you stay?

371
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: Why do we stay?

372
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 11: I think it might be possibly because we're rooted here

373
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 11: and we've got friends of family. It's more of a

374
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 11: personal thing. Oh and when you got that support, you

375
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 11: got that support system, When that circle of support of

376
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 11: friends of family, it's really hard to leave.

377
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 7: And then you just put up with them.

378
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 9: You just put up with the weather.

379
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, when I think about moving, and obviously

380
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 2: all of us had that possibility to think that, when

381
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 2: you're done with your career and your family is here,

382
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 2: that's a magnetic pull. But I also think, where would

383
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 2: I go? You know, when I go to Florida, when

384
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 2: I go to Arizona, I mean, everything I know is here.

385
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 2: I know how to get to where I want to

386
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 2: get to here, I know the roads, and I certainly

387
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: if it was up to the politics, it was up

388
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 2: to the tax system, if it was up to so

389
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 2: many things, you'd leave. But you want to go to Florida,

390
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 2: and I don't know, you know, it's hot in the

391
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 2: summer there, and it's really hot. I just think that

392
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 2: we're New Englanders, we were born into it, and probably

393
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 2: we're resigned to it. Maybe that's the answer. We just

394
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,719
Speaker 2: we're not smart enough to figure out how to go

395
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 2: somewhere else. There's other parts of the country that are lovely,

396
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 2: absolutely lovely. Where would you go? Seriously, where would you

397
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 2: go if you said to yourself, I'm going to leave.

398
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 2: Would you be like Florida, Arizona, Tennessee?

399
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 10: Where would you go?

400
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 11: Well, I this may sound like so shocking, but I'm

401
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 11: generally I'm a cool weather person. I cannot take the hot,

402
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 11: humid weather, Okay, So if I if I had, if

403
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 11: I could, I would move to England where they're they're

404
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 11: not as cold as certain parts of it are not

405
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 11: as cold as what we have, uh, and there's summers

406
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 11: they're actually need to a lot of humidity. But I

407
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 11: was there last a month. I was in London a

408
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 11: month ago and it wasn't as I would move to

409
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 11: another country. And I had this talk with a man

410
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 11: from Ireland in July because it was unbearably hot in July,

411
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 11: and he said, it's not as hot there in Ireland

412
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,439
Speaker 11: as it is here. And I said to him, I said, well,

413
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 11: that's where I need to be if I could, if

414
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 11: I could change my you know, if I could switch

415
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 11: my job over to either Ireland and England. Uh you know,

416
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 11: and dey'll you know, get cooler summers. I would do that.

417
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 11: But today, yeah, today is just brutal. Today, this is

418
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 11: just too much. And the crazy part is it's not.

419
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 2: Even winter yet, which I know, well, yeah, it's the

420
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 2: meteorological winter which starts on December first. The meteorological winter

421
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 2: is January February. By the way, I'm an Irish citizen.

422
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 2: I have a dual citizenship. I've been to Ireland many times.

423
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 2: I could easily see myself living in Ireland because I

424
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 2: like it. Oh yeah, oh yeah. I mean that's where

425
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 2: my forebears came from, and they're in beautiful towns over there.

426
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 2: And with computers and the ability to talk to people,

427
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 2: to do FaceTime, it's very different than it was ten

428
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 2: years ago, or certainly thirty or forty years ago, where

429
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 2: the best you could do would be write a letter.

430
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 2: Now you can jump up on the internet and do

431
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 2: a zoom call and be talking to your grandchildren or

432
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 2: to your children almost immediately. So it's a possibility. And

433
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 2: there are some great cities and towns. Dublin's a great city.

434
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 2: Galway is a really good city and it has everything

435
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 2: that you would need so there's different parts of the

436
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 2: world out there. And by the way, Hawaii wouldn't be

437
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 2: bad either.

438
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 11: I hear why it is very expensive. Although between England

439
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 11: and Ireland, h Dan, I hear the taxes and loose

440
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 11: in Ireland. What's what's in Ireland the taxes compared to

441
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 11: England and Ireland the taxes are less in Ireland compared

442
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 11: to England.

443
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, that will be a fact or two,

444
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 2: but they're pretty high over there as well. There are

445
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 2: all social estates in Europe. That's where that's where they're headed,

446
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 2: and they're trying to drag us in that direction. Hey, Gail,

447
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 2: thank you so much. Always great to you your voice.

448
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 2: If we don't talk between now and Christmas or Honkah,

449
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 2: have great Christmas, great Honicah, whatever you and your family celebrate.

450
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 9: Okay, I'm Catholic.

451
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 5: I'm so Catholic.

452
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 11: Were we do we do?

453
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 7: Christmas?

454
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 2: Good? Well, Marry Christmas. And by the way, next hour

455
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 2: you'll be really interested in the story. Next hour, we

456
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 2: did a little bit of this story about this Deadham Church,

457
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 2: Catholic Church that basically put up an anti ice sign

458
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 2: and they and they they were calling a test today

459
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 2: by the Archdiocese of Boston, and good for a uh,

460
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 2: you'll enjoy the next hour as well. Gayla is always

461
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 2: thank you so much. Don't be a stranger. Okay, talk

00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 12: purple and freeze and your hands turn white and purple.

468
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 12: And that's a lot ever heard it.

469
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 2: I never heard of that.

470
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 12: Very painful. It's called anoids syndrome from arthritis. Yeah, and

471
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 12: so that I bundle up like crazy. I wear a

472
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 12: nut cut, you know, the nutcover and all that. I

473
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 12: wear my fleece vest under my warm jacket. I'm just

474
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 12: covered all the time. Winter is freezing for me. And

475
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 12: the other thing is I mean I have to it

476
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 12: two pairs of socks all the time because my feet

477
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 12: turned white and purple and the freezing. It's a disease.

478
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 12: But anyway, yeah, it's a lot of fun. Last night

479
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 12: with the wind and the freezing cold, I had two

480
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 12: yard barrels out with leaves and two bags fill of leaves,

481
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 12: and the wind was blowing like I was in Alaska.

482
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 12: So they ended up out on the street three times,

483
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 12: three times because they were laid on the pickup, and

484
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 12: it wasn't until seven o'clock that they came.

485
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 2: Curse, I did you have to go out and get them?

486
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 2: Did you have to go out and get three times?

487
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,880
Speaker 12: Three times? And while I was out there, I did

488
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 12: something nice. I picked up my neighbors Amazon packages that

489
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 12: had blown into the street also and delivered them to them.

490
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 2: You're Jean, You're a good neighbors.

491
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 12: So cold, it was so cold, But no, I hate winter,

492
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,479
Speaker 12: I'm not, and I don't like the high heat of summer.

493
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 12: So Florida wouldn't be good for me. But don't think.

494
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 12: I don't always think of where would I go? But

495
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 12: right now a good place could turn into a bad

496
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 12: place in a matter of months, soul or during political times.

497
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 12: So I'm not going anywhere right now because hung.

498
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: Down, hunker down. We'll be okay.

499
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 12: Yeah, we'll survive it somehow. Wait, do we get the bill? Though,

500
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 12: in the heat, it's not going to.

501
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: Be fun, not at all, not at all. But our

502
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 2: politicians will take care of that, won't they.

503
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 12: I need no windows too, By the way, I'm going

504
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 12: to have to look into that at some point.

550
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:37,680

552
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 2: that's six years ago.

553
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 9: What did you do before you drove truck so into

554
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 9: their marketing for Lexus of Watertown in Watertown.

555
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, my wife has bought cars from Lexus

556
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 2: and Watertown, so I yeah, I'm very familiar with Lexus

557
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 2: and Watertown, trust me.

558
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 8: Yes, yeah.

559
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 9: So you know, the plandemic happened, and then I always

560
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 9: wanted to be a trucker, and I took advantage of

561
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 9: the government sending everybody home and you know, shutting down

562
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 9: the whole country. And there was a company out there

563
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 9: that would sponsor me because I didn't have ten thousand

564
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 9: dollars for the driver's license, and I left Massachusetts to

565
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 9: go to Wisconsin and give my license. Long story short,

566
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 9: I'm driving a truck.

567
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 2: Now, good for you. How far do you do you go?

568
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 2: I know, do you go cross country? Do you go

569
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 2: out of New England? How far does your work take you?

570
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 9: So for the first two years, I was all over

571
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 9: the country, most states, but I spent a lot of

572
00:30:54,920 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 9: time on I eighty Wisconsin, Nebraska, uh uh utah.

573
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 2: So you deal with you then if you're out in

574
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 2: that neck of the woods, you deal with some pretty

575
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 2: nasty winter weather out there.

576
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

577
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 9: They shut me down for five days on I eighty

578
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 9: and in uh in Wyoming, uh. Two winters ago because

579
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,479
Speaker 9: of the weather was pretty brutal.

580
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 2: Now, were you a Massachusetts guy who decided to become

581
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 2: a trucker and now you're seeing, if not the world,

582
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 2: you're seeing the United States. I've never been to Wyoming,

583
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 2: I've never been to Utah. I've traveled quite a bit,

584
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 2: but I'm a little envious of the places that you

585
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 2: get to see.

586
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 9: I tell you, I tell you, this country is beautiful,

587
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 9: It's amazing. I love this country. I'm not originally from

589
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 9: I love this country. I love to Massachusetts and that's

590
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 9: the reason why I don't live in Massachusetts. We have,

591
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 9: you know, we have four seasons, enjoyable four seasons. You know,

Speaker 9: you don't get bored.

593
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,960

Speaker 2: and get obviously I'm assuming you're legal if you're driving

595
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,800

596

Speaker 2: for you to get into this country.

597
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 5: I waited.

598
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,480

Speaker 9: it's on the part of the US or on the

604
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,680

626
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 2: as a truck driver, it's you, guys and gals that

627
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 2: make the country run because everything that I buy in

628
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 2: a store has been transported there on a truck by

00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,080

Speaker 9: Yeah, welcome, Dan, you got to do a show about trucking.

631
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 9: There's so much stuff going on in trucking in regards

632
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 9: of the illegal immigration and drivers licenses, people driving illegally yep,

633
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 9: with our papers.

634
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 2: I'm aware. I am aware of that. And there have

635
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 2: been some guys who get I know that they can

636
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 2: get the CDL licenses in the state of Washington and California,

637
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 2: and some of those guys have ended up in some

638
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 2: horrific accidents that have taken the lives.

639
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 9: About two hundred thousand licenses. They said, it's gonna be

640
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 9: they're gonna be revoking. Wow, because that's how many. They

641
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 9: call them non domicile licenses, and and most of those

642
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 9: non demosile licenses they already have expired work authorizations, and

643
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 9: but the licenses are not expired. So it's like it's

644
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,480

690
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 16: Coleman at Common Electric is wasting your time with this commercial,

691
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 16: but that's the way it is with advertising. If you're

692
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 16: not overweight with low tee and a flooded basement, half

693
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 16: these ads on for you, same with this one. For

694
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 16: Common Electric. We specialize in replacing knob and tube wiring,

695
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 16: and you might not even have it. Most people don't

696
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 16: even know what it is. Ask a guy if he's

697
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 16: going to remove his nob and tube and he says, no,

698
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 16: I can't. My wife wants another kid. No, no, no, no.

699
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 16: Let me explain. Many houses around here were built a

700
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 16: hundred years ago and still have the original wiring. The

701
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,799
Speaker 16: wires would heat up, so they ran him around little

702
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 16: knobs and through tiny tubes.

703
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 4: Ain't called it noob and tube.

704
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 16: But insurance companies call it a stinking fire hazard, and

705
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 16: insulation companies won't even call back because they ain't touching it.

706
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 16: If you've got knob and tube, join this Century and

707
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 16: book a free estimate with Common Electric to have it replaced,

708
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,800
Speaker 16: and if you don't have it, sorry we wasted your time.

709
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 16: But thanks to your sacrifice, you've helped your knob and

710
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 16: tube neighbor. Can I get a tissue?

711
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:55,919
Speaker 2: Well? It up over him?

712
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 1: K u hlm An called Coleman.

713
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 2: This electric Dan Ray and yes, the big day is

714
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 2: almost here, New Year's Day, the day we all tell

715
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 2: ourselves we're gonna wake up motivated, focused and ready to

716
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,320
Speaker 2: finally lose that weight. But let's be honest, when January

717
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,240
Speaker 2: first rolls around, it's just the other day. Nothing changes

718
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 2: unless you do. I didn't wait for the calendar to

719
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 2: fix things. I heard about Awaken one eighty. It resonated

720
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 2: with me and I thought, why not today? So I

721
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 2: made the call, and not only did I start Awaken

722
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 2: one eighty, I succeeded with Awaken one eighty. I didn't

723
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 2: have to go it alone. I had expert coaches guiding me.

724
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 2: And when I saw that scale drop week after week,

725
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 2: I knew this was the real deal. Maybe your moment

726
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 2: is hearing this, maybe it's a doctor's visit, whatever it is.

727
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 2: When you feel that this is the day, moment, make
