1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: A podcast playground. Well, Hi, I'm buzzs Night. I am

2
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: a Boston based media executive. But I also have a podcast.

3
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: It's called Taking a Walk and on the special La edition.

4
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm so excited to be taking a walk with someone

5
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: I really admire and I'm a big fan of Ed

6
00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: Bagley Junior. Ed, it's so nice to see you here.

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,960
Speaker 1: It's good to see you again. Buzz is a It's sensational.

8
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of so much of your work. It

9
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: would take me literally days to list all your characters

10
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: and your accomplishments, so we don't have that much time.

11
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: But I'm a fan of so much of the work.

12
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: Into the Christopher Guest mockumentaries, I mean, just wonderful, wonderful stuff.

13
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: I'm very lucky to be working still at seventy two

14
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 1: years of age. I thought they would have retired me

15
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: kicking and screaming by now, but apparently I'm still working.

16
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: I've been working fifty five years in screen actors guilds.

17
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: I'm very lucky. And the truth is, I don't care

18
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: if you sell used cars, the or aluminum siding. If

19
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: you're still working five and a half decades, you're pretty lucky.

20
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: If you still enjoy it. And I do so, I'm

21
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: you know, I'm a lucky, lucky guy, that's for sure. Well,

22
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: and you have something called big lea living right that

23
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about on this podcast. Yes, we'll

24
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,559
Speaker 1: talk about that a bit. That's my wife's idea, really

25
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,839
Speaker 1: to show some of the things we did in this home,

26
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: this lead platinum home. What that is. It's kind of

27
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: a miles per gallon rating, if you will, for a

28
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: house or commercial structure. There's silver, gold, and platinum, silver

29
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: being a little easier to get, and gold perhaps a

30
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: little more difficult than that, certainly more difficult than silver.

31
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: And then the highest level you can get is platinum,

32
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 1: and it's pretty hard to get. You have to do everything.

33
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: You can't have any stone come from Italy, you can't

34
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: have made a lot of trash on site where you're

35
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: building it. You got to do everything during the construction,

36
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: and then when it's finally all turned on and occupied

37
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: it you have to continue in that manner. So it's

38
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: a good rating system, I think, and and I'm very

39
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: happy with it because you know, when you look at

40
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: the cost of a building, most people look at just

41
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: labor and materials, but the other cost of the building

42
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: is running that building commercial structure, residential. What does it

43
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: cost to run it over hundreds and hundreds of years?

44
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: Because this isn't made out of steel, not wood. I

45
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: didn't want to take down trees to make my house,

46
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: so it's built out of steel. So this structure will

47
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: be around. I can't imagine what it would make it

48
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: not be around. It'll probably be here for hundreds of years,

49
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 1: so over that time it'll save me a lot of

50
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: money and save the environment. But let's let's go for

51
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: a walk. I can yapp all day here both well.

52
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: I love it and check out the episode with Ed

53
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: Bagley Junior, which will be coming out later this week

54
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: on the Taking a Walk podcast series Let's Go Take

55
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: a Walk Ahead
