1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: It's nice size with Dan Ray. I'm telling you easy.

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 2: Austin's News Radio always a great decision to go to

3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 2: Night's side every Monday through Friday night right here in

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 2: w BZ, Boston's news Radio. My name is Dan Ray.

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 2: Rob Brooks is back at the control bool tonight. All

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 2: said to begin taking your phone calls right after the

7
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 2: nine o'clock news. We will, by the way, talk we

8
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 2: expect to hear from Governor Mara Heay tonight during the

9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 2: nine o'clock hour. We are going to specifically talk about

10
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 2: that parole Board hearing that was held today out in Natick,

11
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 2: in which the man who murdered in cold blood, Jose Cologne,

12
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,480
Speaker 2: Massachusetts State Trooper George Hannah back in nineteen eighty three,

13
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: because he was a mere twenty years old at the time,

14
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 2: an emerging an emerging adult as defined by the Massachusetts

15
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 2: State Supreme Court and the Madis decision a year ago.

16
00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 2: He and about two hundred other first degree murder convicts

17
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 2: who currently are under the penalty or should be under

18
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 2: the penalty of life without parole, they now will get

19
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: parole hearings. The Parole Board is giving them parole at

20
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: about a sixty seventy six percent rate. We'll talk with

21
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: the Governor about that and also her very I thought

22
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 2: a well written, well thought out letter to the Parole

23
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: Board asking the parole Board to keep mister Cologne behind

24
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: bars and not defile the memory of Massachusetts State Police

25
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:35,559
Speaker 2: Trooper George Hannah and not put his family through more

26
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: and more difficult sets of circumstances. It's as simple as that.

27
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 2: We'll get to that with Governor Heally. We'll also probably

28
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: talk a little bit about what's going on in Minneapolis

29
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: later tonight. My suggestion is that we are probably reaching

30
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,639
Speaker 2: some sort of the current phrase is an inflection point,

31
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 2: but that's a very dangerous situation that seems to be

32
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 2: percolating and showing no sign of down.

33
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 3: We have four.

34
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 2: Interesting guests going to talk a little bit about the

35
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: Patriots with Ben Volan of the Boston Globe, going to

36
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 2: talk about an award winning film called Sheep Dog with

37
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 2: the director and star actor in the film. We will

38
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: also talk with Mike Woff, the President and CEO of

39
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 2: Cape Cod Healthcare. But first my pleasure to introduce Tracy Hines,

40
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 2: the first ever director of the one hundred Club of Massachusetts.

41
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 2: Tracy will explain to us what the one hundred Club

42
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 2: of Massachusetts is. It's been around for quite a while.

43
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: Tracy's husband also is a Lynn firefighter. So first of all, Tracy,

44
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 2: welcome to Nightside, and happy New Year to you and yours.

45
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 2: We lost a police officer last week in that horrific

46
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 2: accident in Uxbridge. His funeral was held today. What exactly

47
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 2: tell us the one hundred Club? I believe was founded

48
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: sometime in the nineteen fifties, if I recall correctly.

49
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 4: That's correct, Dan, Thank you so much for having me

50
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 4: the Hunter Club. The hundred Club was founded in nineteen

51
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 4: fifty nine, so we're approaching our excuse me, seventy year

52
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 4: anniversary in twenty twenty nine. And we exist for one reason,

53
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 4: and that is when a firefighter or a police officer dies,

54
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 4: whether it's a line of duty loss like we recently

55
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 4: had an Uxbridge or what we call a nonline or

56
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,399
Speaker 4: off duty loss, we believe that their family has paid

57
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 4: the ultimate sacrifice and we and they should not have

58
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 4: to worry about immediate financial needs or where to turn

59
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 4: on what is the worst day of their lives. So

60
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 4: we're there immediately to support them with financial resources and

61
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 4: for our non line of duty families, we stay with

62
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 4: them for the rest of their lives.

63
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: Well, I'm sure you probably know, Peter s. My former

64
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: broadcast was very much involved for many years. I think

65
00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: you might have been one of your predecessors. This was

66
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: founded by as as as I was understood, some of

67
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: the more wealthy and influential members of the Boston business community.

68
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,559
Speaker 2: But it's the need for support of this today should

69
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 2: be much broader than than just a group of men

70
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: who I think were kind of referred to.

71
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 3: Colloquially as the vault back in the day.

72
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 2: Is my history still fairly close to to what is reality?

73
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 4: That that sounds pretty accurate. Peter Smith is actually currently

74
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 4: our board president and he's wonderful, Like I couldn't do

75
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 4: it without him and Joe Ableys our board chair. And

76
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: it was the organization was founded by Norman Knight, who

77
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 4: was a very successful businessman, and he invited a number

78
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 4: of his colleagues and friends and and and connections to

79
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 4: to join and support and that's how it started. And

80
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 4: it really was a club back in the day. You

81
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 4: actually had to be sponsored to get involved, to become

82
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 4: a member. That's you know, that's obviously changing now. We

83
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 4: need new members. We would love for folks to join

84
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 4: us and get involved and support us and become members

85
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 4: of the Hunter Club. And you do not need to

86
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 4: be sponsored today.

87
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 3: Okay.

88
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: My understanding is that since nineteen fifty nine, you've the

89
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: club has provided over twenty million dollars in financial support

90
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 2: to almost eighteen hundred families across the Commonwealth who have

91
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 2: lost an active duty respond first responder. What is the

92
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 2: financial health of the club now and what can my

93
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 2: listeners do to help support this great cause.

94
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 4: Well, I'm happy to say, on the one hand, we're

95
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 4: very solid. We've you know, the organization has been stewarded

96
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 4: very responsibly over the years. But the reality is that

97
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 4: our membership does have not increased in multiple decades, and

98
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 4: as you know and your listeners know, have gone up

99
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 4: and in these days, Unfortunately, for every line of duty

100
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 4: police officer or firefighter we lose, there's between ten and

101
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 4: twenty non lines and those families need support too, So

102
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 4: we support both families and with significant support. So what

103
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 4: we've done in the past year, since I came on

104
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 4: board last year, we've expanded the tiers of memberships so

105
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 4: folks can come in that the basic membership is two

106
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty dollars and it goes up from there

107
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 4: now so there are opportunities for folks who are able

108
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 4: to support us at higher levels. We would be very

109
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 4: grateful for the support. We launched a new corporate sponsorship

110
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 4: program as well, and we also offer business memberships too.

111
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 2: And where were you locate? How can people get in

112
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 2: touch with that? I don't expect people to come and

113
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 2: knock on a door, but you must have a website.

114
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 2: Let's do the website thing first. Then either starts during

115
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 2: the year that people can attend or as a mirror

116
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 2: is it membership and dues and that's pretty much it.

117
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 4: Well, we just actually launched our brand new website tonight,

118
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 4: so that's really this is one of the timing and

119
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 4: it's one hundred clubmass dot org. It's one zero zero

120
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 4: Club mass dot org and there's information about us. You

121
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 4: can scroll through our newsletters and find out what you know,

122
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 4: how we've supported families over the recent years. And we

123
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 4: used to back in the day, you know, back in

124
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 4: the sixties and seventies and eighties, one hundred Club was

125
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 4: known for our gala. It was quite a spectacle, I'm

126
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 4: told that was long before my time. We would love

127
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 4: to get back to the point where we can do

128
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 4: something like that, and maybe for our thirtieth anniversary in

129
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 4: twenty twenty nine or before, we would love to be

130
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 4: able to do that. But when folks join us, they

131
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 4: get a membership card, they get a decal for their car,

132
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,679
Speaker 4: and we're adding additional kind of what we call swag,

133
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 4: you know, benefits to show appreciation for support. As we

134
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 4: continue to grow and expand we do have an office.

135
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 4: We are launching our first Responder Fridays starting in February,

136
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 4: so if folks join or sign up for our EMUs

137
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 4: less List, they can find out about how we'll be

138
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 4: visiting police and fire stations across the state to thank

139
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 4: our first responders for their work.

140
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: I see that you have a four star rating from

141
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: a charity navigator.

142
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 4: That's right. We are very you know, our board of directors,

143
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 4: to their incredible credit, have managed this organization very conservatively

144
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 4: and responsibly and carefully. You know that it's public money

145
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 4: that we're a charitable organization. Folks can take a tax

146
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 4: deduction for their gifts to us, and so we take

147
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 4: that very seriously, and as we grow and evolved, we

148
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 4: would like to do more for our families. We would

149
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 4: like to expand our scholarship program. We do feel like

150
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 4: there's more that we can do, particularly for our nonline

151
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 4: of duty families, folks who've lost a loved one to cancer,

152
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 4: particularly occupational cancer for firefighters as real, real tragic issue.

153
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 4: These days, cardiac events are a significant problem, and suicides

154
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 4: in particular for police officers are also extremely high. So

155
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 4: we want to make sure that we're we're not here

156
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 4: just today, but we're here for a very long time,

157
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 4: you know, in perpetuity to support these families who haven't

158
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,320

00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 3: For many multiples of seventy years.

164
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 2: And it is to emphasize a five oh one C

165
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 2: three And if you want to find it, just go

191
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's talk a little bit. First off, cape

192
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:16,719
Speaker 2: Cod Healthcare. That has to be an umbrella identification. Tell

193
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 2: us what that encompasses.

194
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 5: Cape Cut Healthcare is about a one point two billion

195
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 5: dollar not for profit, community owned healthcare system. We have

196
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 5: two hospitals, We have a physician enterprise with our employed

197
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 5: physician Network, the largest BNA on the South Shore. We

198
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 5: have assisted living, skilled living, as well as a variety

199
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 5: of programs all aimed to better the health and welfare

200
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 5: of our community.

201
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 2: And are you associated at all with what most of

202
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 2: us know is Cape Cod Hospital?

203
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 6: Yeah?

204
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 5: We Cape Cut Healthcare is the parent company of Cape

205
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 5: Cut Hospital, which was founded in nineteen nineteen and collectively

206
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 5: we have over a fifty three hun employees.

207
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 2: All Right, So now you're in the process of completing

208
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 2: the final phase of what it's called the two it's

209
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 2: called the Edward Barbie Patient Care Pavilion, a two hundred

210
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 2: and fifteen million dollar But you're also adding a cardiovascular

211
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 2: care center in the Davenport Mugaar Cancer Center. And that's

212
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 2: a lot of information here, so let's try to break

213
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 2: it out, because I'm sure it's easy to you because

214
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 2: you live it every day. But my audience wants to

215
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 2: know all the different nomenclature here and what it refers to,

216
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 2: and more importantly, what it means. To people who have

217
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 2: service at any of your facilities.

218
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: Well.

219
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 5: The the Anfum Barbie Patient Care Pavilion opened the initial

220
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 5: phase our cancer center in May of this year, and

221
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 5: with that the first two floors of the building is

222
00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 5: a comprehensive cancer center, the first or radiation oncology with

223
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 5: state of the art linear accelerators as well as imaging

224
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 5: and technology that is you can is equal to anywhere

225
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 5: in the country. Recently, we were able to open the

226
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 5: third floor, which is an expansion of our car cardiovascular program,

227
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 5: and we added thirty two new inpatient cardiology beds, and

228
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 5: the fourth floor we added thirty two in patient surgical beds,

229
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 5: and that we were able to collectively add an additional

230
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 5: thirty two beds on our license where we're bumping up

231
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 5: again three hundred in total on Cape cut Hospital's campus.

232
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 5: The Barbie Pavilion is a two hundred and fifteen million

233
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 5: dollar project. As you said, it's one hundred and forty

234
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 5: four thousand square feet of space. Every room in is private.

235
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 5: The technology is so advanced. But what I love about

236
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 5: it most is it took the very best elements of

237
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 5: what is Cape cod and incorporated them into the care

238
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 5: and the design that we provide and the building that

239
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 5: we provide, and it's a warm, private and an incredible space,

240
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 5: all named and improving the care of our patients. And

241
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 5: what's also unique is every room in it is private.

242
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 5: And this makes just about ninety five percent of every

243
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 5: room at Cape Cut Hospital private, which of course meets

244
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 5: the needs of our patients and I think promotes their

245
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 5: health and well being.

246
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 3: Well, correct me if I'm wrong.

247
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 2: But Cape Cod Hospital is in Hyanas, it's also in

248
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 2: Yarmouth in West Yarmouth is there Is it just one

249
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: facility or does it carry over into two communities? Are

250
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: we talking in effect about the same community, because in

251
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 2: the Cape there's a lot of communities that are called

252
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 2: that have different names, but they're the same community. So

253
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 2: why don't you straighten that out for me?

254
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 7: Well?

255
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 5: Cape Cut Hospital is in Hyennas and again, as I

256
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 5: mentioned earlier, was founded in nineteen nineteen. But we have

257
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 5: eighty two locations across Cape Cod that includes Foundouth Hospital

258
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 5: and found With the Cape Cut Hospital itself has many

259
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 5: different clinics right around the hospital itself as well as

260
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 5: into our communities. We have seven dedicated out patient centers.

261
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 5: We have everything from urgent care to diagnostic capabilities, the

262
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 5: primary care, specialty care lab business. We have a plan

263
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 5: to be fifteen minutes to our population wherever they live.

264
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 5: We want to be within fifteen minutes primary care, thirty

265
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 5: minutes within specialty care, in one hour to hospital care.

266
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 5: And that is only because it takes one hour from

267
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 5: Provincetown to Hyennas in an ambulance. So that's how we're

268
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 5: positioned to take care of our community. And it spreads

269
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 5: from the Upper Cape to the Lower Cape to the

270
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 5: outer Cape.

271
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 2: So the Edward Barbie Patient Care Pavilion is named after

272
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 2: Edward Barbie. I'm not familiar with mister Barbie, but I'm

273
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 2: sure that he has quite a reputation on the Cape.

274
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: If you'd like to tell us a little bit about him,

275
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 2: that'd be great.

276
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 5: Well, mister Barbie had spent summers here growing up on

277
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 5: the Cape and was a very successful business person that

278
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 5: was in to not only the newspaper business and the

279
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 5: news business in general, but also clothing businesses and real

280
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 5: estate businesses and went across the Cape. But most of

281
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 5: his family adult life was spent growing up in Arizona

282
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 5: as well as spending time in Pennsylvania. But he always

283
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 5: had a very warm spot where the Cape and remembered

284
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 5: it fondly. And upon his passing, his children that we

285
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 5: had worked with, Peter Barbie specifically and his wife Pamela,

286
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 5: we worked with them and they wanted to do something

287
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 5: substantial and honor their father that wanted to give back

288
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 5: so much to the community. So they really led with

289
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 5: a gift of ten million dollars to support a new

290
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 5: project and it really started the transformation. And again, what

291
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 5: I love most about the building is number one, the

292
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 5: reason we're they're the mission to take incredible care of

293
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 5: people to the incredible elements that went into it. But three,

294
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 5: you asked why do we do what we do on

295
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 5: the Cape. We do it exceptionally well because we're independent.

296
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 5: But more importantly, we can provide incredible care close to

297
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 5: where people live. We are a valuable off option for

298
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 5: people to not have to go to Boston and we

299
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 5: take that very seriously and this is why we've made

300
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 5: investments like this on the Cape.

301
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 2: And then I do want to give a mention to

302
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 2: Dave Mugar and it was the Davenport Mugar Cancer Center.

303
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 2: I'm not sure who who the Davenport name reflects but

304
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 2: we certainly know the great generosity of Dave Mugar, the

305
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 2: guy for whom the Boston Pops on the esplant out

306
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 2: of the fourth of July never would have occurred without

307
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 2: his insistence before he passed. Tell us about the Davenport

308
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 2: Mugar Center.

309
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 5: Well, the Dave Port Mugar Cancer Center was seated by

310
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 5: two important philanthropic families, right the Davenports that were lifelong

311
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 5: residents of the Cape and the Mugars. And what was

312
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 5: interesting is David Mugar was an incredible human being and

313
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 5: he did the lead gift back in two thousand and

314
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 5: five to build the Mugar Tower, which is on our campus.

315
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 5: And to tell you how extraordinary the Davenports and the

316
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 5: Mugars are. When we were opening this new building before

317
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 5: David passed, he into what Davenport came to us, and

318
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 5: out of generosity, offered UH to financially rename the cancer

319
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 5: center that they had already named some twenty five years earlier.

320
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,400
Speaker 5: David Mugar knew the importance of receiving life saving treatment

321
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 5: in the Cape, loved the Cape as the Magi Davenport

322
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 5: Davenports have. And that just shows you how they looked

323
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 5: around the bend to take care of the community, and

324
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,479
Speaker 5: the Davenport and Mogar Cancer Center is second to none.

325
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 5: It's incredible we have Obviously, we work with all the

326
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 5: leading cancer centers, including Dana Farber and Boston for second opinions,

327
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 5: and if we can provide that care for you on

328
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 5: the Cape, this cancer center does that exceptionally well. So

329
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 5: we're very proud to be in the same conversation with

330
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 5: David mugar Well.

331
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 2: Mike Mike Loffe, President and CEO of Cape God Healthcare.

332
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 2: I can tell from the sound of your voice you

333
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,640
Speaker 2: are very proud of the facility that you lead now

334
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 2: and thanks very much for spending some time with us tonight.

335
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 2: And I'm sure it's going to put a lot of

336
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 2: people's mind at rest on the Cape to know what great,

337
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 2: improving medical facilities you lead.

338
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for your.

339
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 5: Time, Dan, thank you so much for having me. We

340
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 5: greatly appreciate it.

341
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 2: All right, my friend, we have the newscast coming up

342
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 2: at the bottom of the hour, But then we're gonna

343
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 2: be talking about Ben volan Boston Globe sports reporter, about

344
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 2: the upcoming game with the Houston Texans. Obviously, in the playoffs,

345
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 2: every game is a must win, and we'll talk with

346
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 2: Benvolan about that right after the news break at the

347
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 2: bottom of the hour, you're.

348
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 1: On Night Side with Dan Ray on Boston's news radio.

349
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 2: Well, that's an easy transition from Ben Parking to Ben

350
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 2: Volan to the Boston Globe. Hey, Ben Volan to the

351
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: Boston Globe. Welcome back Tonight's side. How are you, sir?

352
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: I'm doing great.

353
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 8: How are you tonight, Dan?

354
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 2: I'll tell you you're doing great. The Patriots are doing great.

355
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 2: Everybody seems to be doing great. Here your piece a

356
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 2: postgame against the Chargers headline in a season all about offense,

357
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 2: it was the Patriots defense that pulled through versus the

358
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 2: Chargers kind of reminded me of that Super Bowl game.

359
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 2: I think the Patriots beat the Rams, another team from

360
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 2: LA sixteen to three. I think the score was actually identical.

361
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 2: But it's gonna be a different script, or it may

362
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 2: have to be a different script this weekend. I think

363
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 2: that's the analysis you were now positing. Tell us about it.

364
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 8: Well, actually, so this weekend against the Texans.

365
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 7: It's probably gonna be a pretty similar game from what

366
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 7: Patriots fans saw last.

367
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 8: Sunday against the Chargers. You have a Texans team that

368
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 8: is excellent on defense, probably the.

369
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 7: Number one defense in the NFL, certainly number one in

370
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 7: a lot of different metrics, but their offense struggles. Their

371
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 7: offensive line is a bit inconsistent, and quarterbacks CJ. Stroud

372
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 7: is definitely having an up and down season. Monday Night,

373
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 7: in their win against the Steelers, Stroud had five fumbles

374
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 7: in the interception so he's, you know, the chart. The

375
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 7: Texans offense is definitely a big question mark for them.

376
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 8: But so it's probably gonna be another kind of.

377
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 7: A rock fight game for the Patriots where it's going

378
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 7: to be low scoring. You know, they might only need

379
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 7: twenty points to win this one, but they're going to

380
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 7: have to make sure they avoid turnovers because.

381
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 8: That Texans defense, man, they are nasty.

382
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 7: They've forced a takeaway in sixteen of their eighteen games

383
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 7: this year, and that side of the ball, the Texans

384
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 7: defense can win this game single handedly on Sunday. So

385
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 7: the Patriots need to make sure they play a clean game.

386
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 7: And as Josh McDaniels said today, every drive needs to

387
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 7: end in a kick, whether it's an extra point, a

388
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 7: field goal, or a punt. They need to make sure

389
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 7: that every drive ends in a kick against the Texans.

390
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 3: I guess his brother is a quarterback coach. If I'm mistaken.

391
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:55,199
Speaker 7: For the Texans, Josh McDaniel's younger brother, Ben is the

392
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 7: wide receivers coach. It's really going to be a family

393
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 7: affair because not only do you have the brothers facing off,

394
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 7: but the Texans. Basically, Josh McDaniels is going to be

395
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 7: facing his entire former staff on Sunday. The Texans have

396
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 7: five or six coaches that work for the Patriots under

397
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 7: Josh McDaniels. Then, of course their general manager is Nick Cassario,

398
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 7: who is Bill Belichick's right hand man here for almost

399
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 7: twenty years. So it's really like a family affair on

400
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 7: Sunday where you have these coaches who are all very

401
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 7: intimately familiar with each other. And to me, that just

402
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 7: adds such an interesting wrinkle to the preparation because they

403
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 7: all know how Josh McDaniels thinks and how he likes

404
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 7: to attack, and he knows that they know that, and

405
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 7: they know that he knows that you know that, and

406
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 7: so it's just, you know, you can go in circles

407
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 7: trying to think about it, but it makes the preparation

408
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 7: a lot.

409
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 2: Of fun, kind of like the old comic book Spy

410
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 2: Versus Spy. So let's talk about the weather. I guess

411
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 2: it's going to be cold. Houston is not a cold

412
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 2: weather city, nor is Los Angeles. That's a big advantage

413
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 2: for the Patriots. I think they practice and they play

414
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 2: in cold weather. Now since probably the first of November.

415
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 2: How much of a factor could the weather be.

416
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 7: I think it's significant, especially for the Texans offense.

417
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 8: As you said, Houston is not a cold weather.

418
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 7: City, and the Texans they play in a dome anyway,

419
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 7: so they are built for, you know, pristine conditions and

420
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 7: really just don't have much experience playing in the cold,

421
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 7: playing in you know, the early forecast as there's going

422
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,679
Speaker 7: to be some snow on Sunday, you know, maybe that

423
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 7: it slows down the Texans defense as well. They're really

424
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 7: fast defense. You know, they don't disguise much, the Texans.

425
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 7: They just kind of they mostly just line up and

426
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 7: play and they win one on one and they have

427
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 7: excellent players. But maybe the defense is that the snow

428
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 7: slows them down a little bit.

429
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 6: And then c J.

430
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 7: Stroud and that Texans offense, you know, ball security is

431
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 7: going to be a big thing for them on Sunday,

432
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 7: and they just have very little experience playing in this

433
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 7: kind of weather. It's a big home field advantage for

434
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 7: the Patriots. I don't think Tom Brady would have gone

435
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 7: to nine Super Bowls in nineteen years if he didn't

436
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 7: have this cold.

437
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 8: Inclement weather here in New England.

438
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 7: In January for these home playoff games serving as a

439
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 7: great home field advantage. So it's not the be all

440
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 7: end all, but I definitely think.

441
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 8: It's something in the Patriots favor on Sunday.

442
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 2: I think the consensus was that between the Steelers and

443
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 2: the Texans, most people in New England would have preferred

444
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:32,439
Speaker 2: to see the Steelers come into jill Let this Sunday.

445
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 2: Is that the way you felt?

446
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 7: Definitely, And I think you saw that play out on

447
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 7: Monday night where the Texans were not good, especially on offense.

448
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 6: I mean c J.

449
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 7: Stroud fumbling five times. You don't win games when your

450
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 7: quarterback fumbles five times. But not only did they win,

451
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 7: but they won handily thirty to six because their great

452
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 7: defense scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter.

453
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 8: The Texans defense, so yeah.

454
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 7: Playing an older struggling running on fumes, Aaron Rodgers and

455
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 7: that Steelers team would have been much preferable to playing

456
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 7: this Texans defense, which, like I said, has the best

457
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 7: defense in the league, and the Texans defense on its

458
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 7: own could win a game on Sunday.

459
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 2: Okay, so let me move you ahead one week. Let's

460
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: assume that Patriots are fortunate enough to beat the Texans,

461
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 2: and it sounds to me like you'll feel pretty good

462
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 2: about the game, kind of similar to a week ago.

463
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 2: There's another game that we'll be watching this weekend, which

464
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 2: obviously is in Denver with the Broncos and the Bills.

465
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 2: Do you think this anyway the Bills get out of

466
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 2: that and sets up the third game of the year

467
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 2: with the Patriots the following weekend in Foxborough.

468
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 8: I do think there's a chance.

469
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,360
Speaker 7: It kind of feels like destiny to be honest, that

470
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 7: this is all setting up for Patriots Bills AFC Championship game,

471
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 7: you know, in Foxborough, Round three between Drake May and

472
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 7: Josh Allen. Now, the Bills are a walking wounded team

473
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 7: right now. They are all kinds of banged up, and

474
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 7: especially a quarterback Josh Allen has, you know, a knee

475
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 7: injury and a hand injury and an ankle injury and

476
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 7: he's just getting really beaten up. But the guy is superman.

477
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 7: He is a warrior out there and he, you know,

478
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 7: with all due respect to drink mate, Josh Allen's probably

479
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 7: the best quarterback remaining in the playoffs. And you know,

480
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 7: I think the Broncos do have a better team than

481
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 7: the Bills. Certainly player one to fifty three.

482
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,239
Speaker 8: I like the Broncos better, and they do have home

483
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 8: field advantage, which is very.

484
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 7: Real in Mile High. But I just I can't take

485
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,439
Speaker 7: Broncos quarterback bow Knicks over Josh Allen.

486
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 8: You know, I think Josh Allen.

487
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 7: Was heroic in leading his team to victory over the

488
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 7: Jaguars last week, and I think he's gonna go into

489
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 7: Denver and beat.

490
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 8: The Broncos on Saturday.

491
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 7: So that'll be a really interesting game, and the Patriots

492
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 7: will know before they kick off whether they'll get another

493
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 7: home game or a road game. If if the Bills

494
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 7: win on Saturday, then a Patriots win means they get

495
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 7: to host the AFC Championship game. So obviously all all

496
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 7: Patriots fans will be watching that Bills game very intently.

497
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 3: Who do you think would be an easier game?

498
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 2: Obviously, it's tough to go to Denver, but Buffalo may

499
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 2: have some you know, personal incentives. Who would you rather

500
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 2: see the Patriots play, assuming they win on Sunday, It's.

501
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 8: A great question.

502
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 7: I'd probably want to face the Broncos, just because on

503
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 7: the road, on the road, and you know what, the

504
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 7: Patriots were eight and zero on the road this year,

505
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 7: so they were argued they're arguably better on the road

506
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 7: than they were at home. And it's what I said before,

507
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 7: I Josh Allen is frightening, and I'd rather play bow Nicks.

508
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,719
Speaker 7: And you know the Josh Allen and the Bills are

509
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 7: that's one team that is not afraid of coming to Foxborough.

510
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 7: They're not afraid of inclement weather. You know, they just

511
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 7: erased a twenty one nothing definite against the Patriots a

512
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 7: few weeks ago and beat them in Foxborough. I think

513
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,040
Speaker 7: the Patriots can take them down in round three, and

514
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 7: the Patriots defense is healthier and.

515
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 8: Better than the last time they played the Bills.

516
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: But I think I'd.

517
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 7: Rather go on the road, you know, having us against

518
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 7: the world mentality and play out in Denver than have

519
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 7: to take on Josh Allen again.

520
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Ben, I thought, I'm sure you probably watched that

521
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,360
Speaker 2: play where they were trying to get a first down

522
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 2: of the ten yard line and they had the push

523
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 2: tush and Josh Allen carried the line both lines about

524
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: ten yards literally to the goal line.

525
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 3: I've never seen.

526
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 2: That's the longest push tush in the history of the NFL,

527
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 2: although i'llbeit a short history of the push tush in

528
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:36,160
Speaker 2: the NFL.

529
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, that's the kind of play where I.

530
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 7: Think one of the linemen like picked Josh Allen up

531
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 7: and carried.

532
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 8: Him almost ten yards into the end zone.

533
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 7: And that's the kind of play that's going.

534
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 8: To get the NFL to I think ban the tush push.

535
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 7: This offseason, because they've talked about it for a few

536
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 7: years now and they ultimately haven't come up with a

537
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 7: valid reason to get rid of the play. But when

538
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 7: Josh Allen is literally getting picked up and harried, I

539
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 7: think the NFL is gonna look at that play and say,

540
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 7: maybe maybe it's.

541
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 8: Time we legislate this thing out of the game.

542
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 2: But Alan still got the credit for the ten yard game,

543
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,479
Speaker 2: not the line. But hey Ben, thanks so much. Always

544
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 2: great to hear you, and hopefully we'll talk again in

545
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 2: the next week or two. As the Patriots hopefully make

546
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 2: their way to the super Bowl and and out west,

547
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 2: fly to fly to Denver, win it, win it there,

548
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 2: and if that's the way it works, and then just keep

549
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 2: on hitting the Santa Clara.

550
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 3: Although post don't come home. Thanks Ben, I appreciate it

551
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 3: very much.

552
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 8: Thanks a lot.

553
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 2: When we get back, we will be talking with Steve Graham.

554
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 2: He's the director and star actor in a film called

555
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 2: Sheep Dog, an award winning film that follows a decorated

556
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 2: combat veterans journey through post traumatic stress to post traumatic growth.

557
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 2: Back on Night Side after this.

558
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: It's Night Side with Dan Ray on Boston's news radio.

559
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna talk about a movie called Sheep Dog, an

560
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 2: award winning film that follows a decorated combat veterans journey

561
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 2: through post traumatic stress to post traumatic growth. Raises awareness

562
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: about what our vet's go through and how to better

563
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 2: support them. My guest is Steve Graham. Steve is a

564
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 2: director of the film and also an actor in the

565
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 2: film Welcome to Night's Side. This film was filmed out

566
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 2: in western Massachusetts. As I understand, when were you guys

567
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 2: shooting this, Steve.

568
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, sure was, Thanks for having me.

569
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 9: We shot a Sheep Dog in western Massachusetts in February

570
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 9: of twenty twenty three, and we shot in Greenfield, Turner's Falls,

571
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 9: Miller's Falls, Shelburne Falls, Montague, gil.

572
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 6: And it really was a community effort.

573
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 2: So the film was shot in February twenty three. So

574
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 2: obviously you've done some editing with it. It's appeared at

575
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 2: some film festivals and it's guarded some awards.

576
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 3: It does follow.

577
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 2: I guess, as the information says here a decorated combat

578
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 2: veterans journey. The combat veteran who you follow is it's

579
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 2: an actual combat veteran. Is he involved in the shooting

580
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 2: of the film or is it.

581
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 9: Or is it a you know, cheap dog was inspired

582
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 9: by countless stories. It's been a fourteen year journey to

583
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 9: the screen, and so you know, I began the journey

584
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 9: in twenty eleven on a nationwide road trip after having

585
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 9: an experience with a tow truck driver when my car

586
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 9: broke down just three hours north of La earlier that year,

587
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 9: and it just was a seminal moment, you know, it

588
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 9: lit the spark to find out if there was more

589
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 9: men and women out there that were suffering in silence

590
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 9: like this.

591
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 6: Tow truck driver.

592
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 3: So this is this.

593
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 2: Is a compilation of your experiences that creates the script

594
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 2: and hence the movie.

595
00:31:58,880 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 6: Correct.

596
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 9: I spent years immersed in the veteran community researching and

597
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 9: developing the screenplay.

598
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 6: You know, I spent years. I had an.

599
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 9: Office at the Detroit VA Medical Center where I was

600
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 9: able to role play with doctors and neurologists and trauma therapists,

601
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 9: gold Star family members for those that don't know, our

602
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 9: families that have lost their children in combat or to

603
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 9: unfortunately to suicide.

604
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 6: And I was immersed in that world as well. And

605
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 6: so you know, sheep Dog is.

606
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 9: My way, in our team's way of thanking our veteran community,

607
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 9: but also shining a light on the plight of our

608
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 9: veterans and our mental health workers.

609
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 3: So where does the title come from?

610
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 9: Well, sheep Dog is a metaphor that comes from the

611
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 9: book on combat that retired retired Lieutenant Colonel David Grossman

612
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 9: had written. And the metaphor is to confront the wolf

613
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 9: and protect the flock. And in Calvin, my character, Sergeant

614
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 9: Calvin Cole, who's an Army veteran, he does that in

615
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 9: his military service and where we pick up with him,

616
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 9: which is ten years after.

617
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 6: His last deployment. The the wolf is the wolf that

618
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 6: is at his door.

619
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 2: The metaphor metaphorical wolf of the correct and so you

620
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 2: follow him from post traumatic stress to post traumatic growth.

621
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 2: And this is a story that is all too common

622
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 2: in the military and in men and women who have

623
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 2: been deployed, and a lot of people were deployed during

624
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 2: that twenty year or so involvement in the Middle in

625
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 2: the Middle East, Irak, Afghanistan, et cetera. The movie, it's

626
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 2: going to be shown here in the Boston area, and

627
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 2: I assume people can attend. What's the circumstances of the

628
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:10,000

00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 2: See Let me ask you, are you a Western mass

667
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 2: native perchance? Have you relocated there as a result of

668
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 2: the time you spent putting.

669
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 3: This film together.

670
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 9: Yeah, so I lived in Hollywood for twenty one years,

671
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 9: and so I was quite young, and when my wife

672
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 9: got pregnant, we relocated to Western mass where we shot

673
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 9: the movie, where she's from and where we were married.

674
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 9: And it's really important to share with folks that, you know,

675
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 9: the Western Massachusetts is a character into its own in

676
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 9: the film.

677
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 6: And it really did take them.

678
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,879
Speaker 9: Community, the local community coming together for us to make

679
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 9: this film, and I'm just so proud of it. You know,

680
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 9: we shot at a local paper mill in Turner's Falls,

681
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,399
Speaker 9: where my character in the film works, and in all

682
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,720
Speaker 9: the various locations. You know, these are all practical lived

683
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 9: in locations. There's no sound stages or CGI or anything

684
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 9: like that. So it really is to honor, you know,

685
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 9: what I saw over the last you know, decade plus

686
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 9: doing my research working class families that send their children

687
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:38,720
Speaker 9: into conflict to protect our country, and it was really

688
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 9: really important to get that right.

689
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like a great film, and most importantly,

690
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 2: it sounds genuine and real, and I think that's what

691
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 2: great films actually are made of reality. And it can

692
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 2: be an ugly reality. It can be a reality that

693
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 2: begins ugly and turns from stress to growth, which sounds

694
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 2: like that is the story. But Sheep opens up tomorrow nationwide.

695
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,160
