- 7:56Speaker 9: people in any position of radio or anything that treat
- 8:00Speaker 9: us with respect and love in that city. And it

- 8:06Speaker 9: the show.
- 8:07Speaker 7: Well, I really appreciate that, Donnie, and your family has
- 8:09Speaker 7: really been good to us. I don't know if you
- 8:12Speaker 7: even realize this, but Jenny Johnson and I have a cookbook,
- 8:16Speaker 7: and your brother Mark did the forward to the book.
- 8:20Speaker 9: Well to see now I have a problem.
- 8:26Speaker 4: Yeah, I hope see.
- 8:29Speaker 7: You know you have early morning sound to your voice.
- 8:33Speaker 7: Are you in bed right now, Donnie?
- 8:34Speaker 9: I actually just got out of the bed because I
- 8:36Speaker 9: think our phone's breaking up a little, so I'm moving
- 8:38Speaker 9: to a different part of the apartment.
- 8:40Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:41Speaker 9: Yeah, it was a big It was a big week
- 8:43Speaker 9: filming in Boston, and I mean we filmed on the
- 8:46Speaker 9: Green Monster. We filmed in Boston Common and on the
- 8:50Speaker 9: Waterfront and Charlestown. We were everywhere, and I was yelling
- 8:54Speaker 9: doing a lot of stop, please stop, please loud volume.
- 9:00Speaker 9: So my voice is a little beat up this morning.
- 9:03Speaker 7: Now, I got to ask you, did you and Jenny
- 9:05Speaker 7: FaceTime each other overnight?
- 9:06Speaker 5: We did?
- 9:08Speaker 9: In fact, she's not only did we face time. I
- 9:11Speaker 9: had to hang up on her to take this calls
- 9:14Speaker 9: with you, But I was okay doing it because she's
- 9:18Speaker 9: actually gonna come meet me for the weekend. We're on
- 9:20Speaker 9: the weekend together. And yeah, well, I.
- 9:23Speaker 4: Think you have a Wallburger in Toronto, do you?
- 9:27Speaker 9: We do we have one? Well, it's actually in the airport,
- 9:29Speaker 9: so I can only really pop in there if I'm
- 9:32Speaker 9: taking a trip.
- 9:33Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 9:33Speaker 9: But other words that that's the one up here. So
- 9:38Speaker 9: I try to go to Wallburger's once in a while.
- 9:40Speaker 9: You know, I don't want to go too much because
- 9:43Speaker 9: it could be problematic for me. I try to stay
- 9:45Speaker 9: in really good shape. I don't work out at like
- 9:49Speaker 9: three am, like my brother Mark, but I work out
- 9:52Speaker 9: and eat really well and stay fit. So Wallburgers is
- 9:55Speaker 9: like my weekly treat.
- 9:57Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 9:58Speaker 4: I gotta tell you, Donnie, you look really good.
- 10:00Speaker 7: In fact, I don't think I've ever said this to
- 10:02Speaker 7: another man, but the other day me and Lisa were
- 10:08Speaker 7: talking here in the studio, and I think you should
- 10:11Speaker 7: take this as a compliment.
- 10:12Speaker 4: You're a dilfo. Yeah, And for the record, Donnie, I
- 10:18Speaker 4: do too.
- 10:19Speaker 6: You know.
- 10:20Speaker 9: It's you know, you know, Billy, we've always shared that
- 10:25Speaker 9: with each other. Uh, only only professionally, But I think
- 10:30Speaker 9: you've always been a look for yourself.
- 10:32Speaker 4: Wait a minute, Donnie, are you saying that I'm a
- 10:34Speaker 4: dilf dad.
- 10:36Speaker 9: I'd like to know.
- 10:39Speaker 7: You went to the Red Sox game the other night
- 10:41Speaker 7: and they wasted no time finding you with the cameras.
- 10:44Speaker 4: Can you play that justin?
- 10:45Speaker 10: All right, that's Donny Wahlberg, who is a Boston native
- 10:48Speaker 10: and is wearing a Mets longsleeve tea. I would imagine
- 10:52Speaker 10: that that pains him. However, he is here at Fenway Park.
- 10:55Speaker 10: They are shooting an episode of the TV drama Blue
- 10:59Speaker 10: Bloods Detective Danny Reagan Boston Blue Rather So, Welcome to.
- 11:04Speaker 4: Fenway, Donnie. Did it pain you to put the Mets
- 11:07Speaker 4: jersey on?
- 11:08Speaker 5: Yes?
- 11:08Speaker 9: But whenever I see these posts or people talking about it,
- 11:14Speaker 9: they all say, I bet you he put in this
- 11:16Speaker 9: contract that he wouldn't have to wear the Yankees, And
- 11:19Speaker 9: that is true. I didn't put it in my contract.
- 11:21Speaker 9: I just proclaimed it. The first day. I said, listen,
- 11:24Speaker 9: Danny is a New Yorker, He's going to Boston. I
- 11:27Speaker 9: will not be a Yankee fan. And that's it. It
- 11:30Speaker 9: did pain me. I was literally running around up there
- 11:33Speaker 9: on the Green Monster like covering my chest so like
- 11:36Speaker 9: all the real fans, because we were surrounded by extras.
- 11:38Speaker 9: But once I got past them. All the real fans
- 11:40Speaker 9: were like, what are you doing? You know, But the
- 11:42Speaker 9: best part about the clip is that the family and
- 11:45Speaker 9: friends in the clip put a Red Sox jersey on
- 11:48Speaker 9: Danny at the end of the scenes end of an episode,
- 11:52Speaker 9: and it was really sweet and really fun and it
- 11:56Speaker 9: did pain me, but I loved every second of filming
- 11:58Speaker 9: the scene because I knew the end was going to
- 12:00Speaker 9: be worth the torture that I had to go through.
- 12:02Speaker 9: We're in the Mets Jerseys.
- 12:03Speaker 4: How would you compare it doing this show to spin
- 12:06Speaker 4: off of Boston Blue.
- 12:07Speaker 3: To Blue Bloods.
- 12:07Speaker 9: Oh well, you know, it's it's wow. That's a heavy
- 12:11Speaker 9: question because Blue Bloods was, you know, in many ways,
- 12:14Speaker 9: I was sort of responsibility free in some ways, and
- 12:17Speaker 9: I don't I don't mean that in an arrogant way
- 12:20Speaker 9: or anything like that. I was playing a New Yorker.
- 12:23Speaker 9: I'm playing in New Yorker and I'm a Bostonian, so
- 12:25Speaker 9: I got to have fun with that and got to
- 12:26Speaker 9: really dive into that character and just be you know,
- 12:30Speaker 9: crazy and really over the top with it. But now
- 12:33Speaker 9: I'm in Boston, I feel a great responsibility to, you know,
- 12:38Speaker 9: respect the city of Boston. While portraying a New Yorker
- 12:42Speaker 9: and it's a delicate tight rope to walk. And of course,
- 12:45Speaker 9: you know, the family and Tom Selleck and the entire
- 12:48Speaker 9: cast were you know, my friends, and we're very close
- 12:52Speaker 9: and so this is a new world. Of course, going
- 12:55Speaker 9: to stay connected with the old characters, and they'll be
- 12:58Speaker 9: popping up from time to.
- 12:59Speaker 4: Tell me good guess appearances.
- 13:02Speaker 9: Oh absolutely, oh yeah, we have. The first episode is
- 13:05Speaker 9: going to blow people's minds. I think people are going
- 13:07Speaker 9: to be like, oh my god, Like there's some twists
- 13:10Speaker 9: and turns in the first episode, and then we're going
- 13:12Speaker 9: to continue that. You know, we want to pay respect
- 13:16Speaker 9: and honor Blue Bloods, but also you know there are
- 13:19Speaker 9: then there thousands and thousands of police families in America
- 13:22Speaker 9: and we want to tell some of those stories too,
- 13:24Speaker 9: And we want to let Danny explore, you know, be
- 13:28Speaker 9: a fish out of water. And what better place to
- 13:30Speaker 9: throw in New Yorker than the middle of Boston. And
- 13:33Speaker 9: you know, I got to experience that fourteen years on
- 13:35Speaker 9: Blue Bloods as a Boston only and in the middle
- 13:37Speaker 9: of New York. So this will be a fun turn.
- 13:39Speaker 4: And we have a question from a listener. I think
- 13:40Speaker 4: about the show.
- 13:41Speaker 12: I was just wondering, how long are they filming this
- 13:44Speaker 12: show in Boston and like did it start filming like
- 13:48Speaker 12: yesterday or because I know they're filming like yesterday or
- 13:50Speaker 12: two days ago at Fenway and like in the Commons,
- 13:53Speaker 12: I'm pretty sure I saw like tiktoks, like how long
- 13:55Speaker 12: are they going to be filming there for? Because I'd
- 13:58Speaker 12: love to see them film.
- 14:00Speaker 9: I think we'll be filming in Boston a lot. So
- 14:02Speaker 9: here's the thing with you know, people think it's a
- 14:04Speaker 9: personal choice or something that like I didn't want to
- 14:07Speaker 9: film in Boston. I had the best time in my
- 14:10Speaker 9: life filming in Boston. I had the best time in
- 14:12Speaker 9: my life. Every time I go to Boston. I'm talking
- 14:14Speaker 9: to you, Billy, because you're my friend.
- 14:16Speaker 5: And you're from Boston.
- 14:17Speaker 9: The TV and the industry has really been beat up
- 14:21Speaker 9: from COVID and the strike, and I think a lot.
- 14:23Speaker 9: You know, CBS, for example, used to make like twenty.
- 14:25Speaker 5: Shows a year.
- 14:26Speaker 9: They're making two this year, new shows, and I'm on
- 14:29Speaker 9: one of them. And it's really dire straits financially, you know,
- 14:35Speaker 9: in the industry. So I'm really fortunate to be making
- 14:37Speaker 9: a show. I'm really fortunate to be able to go
- 14:39Speaker 9: to Boston and work at all. But you know, when
- 14:42Speaker 9: I initially was offered a job, I said, we got
- 14:44Speaker 9: to go to Boston. They said, we can't afford it.
- 14:46Speaker 9: It's basically thirty cents on a dollar to film in
- 14:49Speaker 9: Canada right now, compared to you know, eighty cents on
- 14:52Speaker 9: a dollar, ninety cents on a dollar even with tax plates.
- 14:55Speaker 9: And but I said, we have to go to Boston.
- 14:57Speaker 9: I can't not go to Boston. So the plan right
- 15:00Speaker 9: now is to do the interiors up here and go
- 15:02Speaker 9: to Boston every couple of weeks and do what we did,
- 15:05Speaker 9: and put a crew together, a Boston crew, and go
- 15:08Speaker 9: down and film all over the city. And you know,
- 15:10Speaker 9: you can't fake what Boston looks like. And you know,
- 15:15Speaker 9: we're bringing Boston actors up here to guests in the shows,
- 15:17Speaker 9: and we're doing everything we can, and hopefully, in success,
- 15:21Speaker 9: we can be in Boston more. That's the goal is,
- 15:25Speaker 9: let's compromise to get the show made. We'll work outside
- 15:29Speaker 9: and do exteriors in Boston, and then you know, in success,
- 15:32Speaker 9: perhaps we can come down there and be there full time.
- 15:35Speaker 9: That would be a dream of all dreams.
- 15:37Speaker 7: So I know you're busy up there in Toronto. I
- 15:38Speaker 7: wish you nothing but love. Just know that Boston loves you, Donnie,
- 15:43Speaker 7: and you're doing a great job.
- 15:44Speaker 9: We're proud of you, Billy, thank you, thank you, Boston,
- 15:47Speaker 9: thank you everyone there Kiss and honestly that we grew
- 15:52Speaker 9: up there down there in Boston filming is it would
- 15:55Speaker 9: be really hard to be there full time because I
- 15:57Speaker 9: probably took forty six thousand selfies in just a few days.
- 16:01Speaker 9: The duck boats kept driving by, going dot it to
- 16:05Speaker 9: take pictures boats. It was the most fun. But I
- 16:09Speaker 9: could see, you know, and the crew was like, oh
- 16:10Speaker 9: my god, the city loves you. And I was like overwhelmed.
- 16:14Speaker 9: Every now and then in the director would look at
- 16:15Speaker 9: me and go, okay, Donny, you gotta say no to
- 16:18Speaker 9: Sully and Timmy and.
- 16:20Speaker 5: Let's go.
- 16:23Speaker 3: Kis all right.
- 16:24Speaker 2: We got mikey v in studio right now, who, of
- 16:26Speaker 2: course can be heard every afternoon on Kiss one to
- 16:29Speaker 2: wait with his brother Frankie and Gianna. Make sure you
- 16:31Speaker 2: check them out, you know, typically hear him in the mornings,
- 16:34Speaker 2: but mikey Vee wears many hats. He's obviously on the radio,
- 16:37Speaker 2: he's on the air he's a DJ, he does real estate.
- 16:40Speaker 2: I mean, the guy has so many jobs. But it
- 16:43Speaker 2: wasn't always like that. And that's the funny thing about Mikey.
- 16:46Speaker 2: He's got quite the backstory, especially when it comes to jobs.
- 16:50Speaker 2: You want to highlight a couple of those forums.
- 16:52Speaker 11: I think it goes back to do anything that made
- 16:54Speaker 11: money at one point. And you never believe this. You
- 16:57Speaker 11: know what my gym is? Yes, gymnastics little kids. There's
- 17:01Speaker 11: one on Route nine in framing him. Where I grew up,
- 17:03Speaker 11: I was a my gym teacher. So if you had
- 17:05Speaker 11: like your eight year old birthday party and they kids
- 17:08Speaker 11: doing a little fake backflip around triangle foam, I'm like
- 17:11Speaker 11: the teacher that's like, all right, Ben, you're back.
- 17:13Speaker 4: And how did that happen?
- 17:15Speaker 11: I think I randomly met the owner of my gym
- 17:18Speaker 11: when I was young, and she's like, oh, do you
- 17:20Speaker 11: want a job. I'm like, I'll take a job. And
- 17:22Speaker 11: then I started going there and I started working there.
- 17:25Speaker 11: I started like helping our kids. But remember I went
- 17:26Speaker 11: to college to be a teacher, so I've always liked
- 17:29Speaker 11: being around kid. I went to Stonehill College, all right,
- 17:31Speaker 11: and I studied math education, so like I always at
- 17:34Speaker 11: that point, and I probably thought I was gonna be
- 17:35Speaker 11: a teacher and I loved that job.
- 17:37Speaker 3: But I'm numerous ones.
- 17:38Speaker 4: And weren't you like a football player too?
- 17:40Speaker 3: I played football high school.
- 17:42Speaker 1: You had like the athletic part of it.
- 17:43Speaker 2: Wait a minute, hold on, hold on, hold on. So
- 17:46Speaker 2: your goal was to be a teacher and not work
- 17:47Speaker 2: on the radio. Yes, I've did that before. So I
- 17:50Speaker 2: went to college.
- 17:50Speaker 11: I went to Stonehill College, studied mathematics and secondary education,
- 17:54Speaker 11: and I would want to be a math teacher, and
- 17:56Speaker 11: like my dream was like a math teacher and then
- 17:59Speaker 11: maybe DJ the they're like DJ like the after school events,
- 18:03Speaker 11: and then it kind of snowball a little.
- 18:04Speaker 2: So you've always kind of been into the music and
- 18:06Speaker 2: the DJing, always been since I was.
- 18:07Speaker 3: Like sixteen years old. Sixteen years old of d Daniel.
- 18:10Speaker 2: So, my daughter is in gymnastics, she's almost she's three
- 18:13Speaker 2: and a half. So you're telling me that you were
- 18:15Speaker 2: one of the people at the gym. I was helping
- 18:18Speaker 2: her do like the little tumbling pole vaulting.
- 18:21Speaker 11: And could you imagine though EVA had Mikey v as
- 18:23Speaker 11: a gymnastics teacher back in the day. That's crazy, are
- 18:26Speaker 11: you good at math. I'm very good at math. I
- 18:28Speaker 11: mean really that's my I'm not good at reading or
- 18:30Speaker 11: writing this.
- 18:31Speaker 3: We put them to the test.
- 18:31Speaker 13: Last I'll go for it was pimping for three girls.
- 18:35Speaker 13: Price is sixty five dollars for each trick? How many
- 18:39Speaker 13: tricks will each girl have to turn? So Dwayne can
- 18:42Speaker 13: pay for his eight hundred dollars per day?
- 18:46Speaker 3: I don't want to answer that you want to have
- 18:50Speaker 3: that was class?
- 18:52Speaker 11: You also were a teacher too, Yeah, well, I taught
- 18:55Speaker 11: Hebrew school. I guess both those have to go around teaching,
- 18:58Speaker 11: which I originally wanted to do. Teachers like changed the world.
- 19:01Speaker 11: But my mom uh still is a Hebrew school teacher
- 19:04Speaker 11: and a special ed preschool teacher. But when I was younger,
- 19:07Speaker 11: she was a hebrewscol teacher at Benetaura and Sudbury. So
- 19:12Speaker 11: I was like her assistant Hebrew school teacher. So that's
- 19:14Speaker 11: what I did, like even like at the end of
- 19:16Speaker 11: high school and like throughout high school, did that. And
- 19:18Speaker 11: then she's also a severely special ed teacher, so she
- 19:22Speaker 11: would I would assist her in the summers when I
- 19:24Speaker 11: was in college as an assistant teacher there too.
- 19:26Speaker 3: Interesting story. Yeah, at least all right.
- 19:29Speaker 1: Had some weird ones. So I cleaned condos in the Poconos. Yeah,
- 19:34Speaker 1: when I was yeah crazy, Oh no, it was the
- 19:39Speaker 1: most disgusting job of all time. Like the way people
- 19:42Speaker 1: leave hotel rooms and condos is just like next level
- 19:46Speaker 1: the bathroom, just like exploding baby powder everywhere and just
- 19:51Speaker 1: really nasty stuff. So I have to say that was
- 19:53Speaker 1: my worst job. I've also been a lifeguard at a
- 19:55Speaker 1: resort pool in the Poconos, and I made muffin at
- 20:00Speaker 1: a place in Wellesley when I was in college.
- 20:03Speaker 4: It was a summer job.
- 20:03Speaker 1: I had to get up at five o'clock in the
- 20:05Speaker 1: morning and go in and make the muffins.
- 20:07Speaker 3: Those are three very different jobs. A lifeguard, a cleaner,
- 20:10Speaker 3: and a muffin. Yeah.
- 20:12Speaker 1: I ended up like I ended up while I turned
- 20:14Speaker 1: twenty one and I didn't show up one day and
- 20:16Speaker 1: then he fired me.
- 20:17Speaker 4: I didn't make the muff at the Duff muffin guy.
- 20:20Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, because it was like.
- 20:22Speaker 1: My twenty first birthday and I went out with all
- 20:24Speaker 1: my friends and I forgot to tell him, and then
- 20:25Speaker 1: I overslept and then so there were no muffins.
- 20:28Speaker 11: The town was an outrage for breakfast there's nothing like
- 20:31Speaker 11: a blueberry muffin, right.
- 20:33Speaker 1: I have to tell you though, because I I had
- 20:34Speaker 1: like the big mixers and stuff like that, and I
- 20:37Speaker 1: was making like morning glory muffins and all this stuff
- 20:40Speaker 1: and just oh yeah, it was a disaster.
- 20:43Speaker 3: We know, because one thing I'm known for, it's my muffin.
- 20:49Speaker 3: I had a weird first job.
- 20:51Speaker 2: So it's actually kind of ironic because my first job,
- 20:55Speaker 2: I was basically a snitch, which you know, if you
- 20:58Speaker 2: know my story, I kind of went down a darker
- 21:00Speaker 2: road where that's obviously, you know, not what you're supposed
- 21:03Speaker 2: to do.
- 21:04Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 21:04Speaker 2: When I was twelve years old, I looked older than
- 21:06Speaker 2: I was, and there was a family friend who worked
- 21:09Speaker 2: for the health department in a local city, and she
- 21:13Speaker 2: asked my mom if I would help out on the weekends.
- 21:16Speaker 2: And basically what she would do is drive me around
- 21:18Speaker 2: to these different stores in this city and send me
- 21:22Speaker 2: into the convenience store and try to buy cigarettes.
- 21:25Speaker 3: Oh my oh because eighteen.
- 21:26Speaker 2: Yes, when I was older, I looked kind of like
- 21:29Speaker 2: sixteen maybe seventeen. So I would go in and I
- 21:32Speaker 2: would say, can I get to pack the Marlboroughs? And
- 21:35Speaker 2: most times they would say let me see ID but
- 21:37Speaker 2: sometimes they would sell them, and so then I'd walk
- 21:39Speaker 2: out with the cigarettes and hand them to this woman
- 21:41Speaker 2: and then she would go right in and write them
- 21:43Speaker 2: a little a citation.
- 21:44Speaker 3: And find them. So what if they say, give me
- 21:46Speaker 3: an idea what you're saying, Oh, I forgot it? Yeah,
- 21:47Speaker 3: I would say I don't have one, and I would
- 21:49Speaker 3: walk out. I'd say, oh, sorry, I don't have it
- 21:50Speaker 3: and walk out.
- 21:51Speaker 11: And then at that point in your life, did you
- 21:52Speaker 11: get it like excited when you like got them, when
- 21:56Speaker 11: they like let you buy cigarettes and you're like, oh, I
- 21:58Speaker 11: got another one.
- 21:59Speaker 3: How do you feel over?
- 22:00Speaker 1: It was like you were working undercover.
- 22:02Speaker 3: I guess so yeah.
- 22:03Speaker 2: And then you know, soon after that, I turned to
- 22:04Speaker 2: a life of crime and I left that part out
- 22:06Speaker 2: though I didn't let people know that part about me,
- 22:08Speaker 2: but I didn't know.
- 22:09Speaker 3: I wanted the money. She paid me fifty bucks. That's
- 22:11Speaker 3: a lot for a twelve year old. Yeah, I paid
- 22:13Speaker 3: fifty dollars a.
- 22:14Speaker 2: Day, even if you caught her. I didn't catch them. Yeah,
- 22:16Speaker 2: so most times they wouldn't. But then some stores they
- 22:19Speaker 2: would sell them to me, which, you know, shame on them, Hey,
- 22:22Speaker 2: shame on them. So Wow, that's crazy. Yeah, we all
- 22:25Speaker 2: start somewhere. We didn't just come in and, you know,
- 22:27Speaker 2: start working on radio.
- 22:28Speaker 3: No, at least I was in a snitch though.
- 22:31Speaker 4: No snitches.
- 22:32Speaker 9: What does that?
- 22:32Speaker 4: Snitches get?
- 22:33Speaker 11: Snitches get stitches, rats get bats. Hey, that's what I
- 22:35Speaker 11: own it, all right. That's the only time I didn't
- 22:38Speaker 11: know any better. I just wanted the fifty bucks.
- 22:40Speaker 1: Now it's topic time with the Billy and Lisa.
- 22:43Speaker 14: In the morning.
- 22:44Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 22:44Speaker 11: The topic for today weird random jobs that you've had
- 22:47Speaker 11: a couple of minutes ago.
- 22:48Speaker 2: I shared mine. When I was twelve years old, I
- 22:50Speaker 2: worked for the health department. You used to send me
- 22:53Speaker 2: into stores to see if they would sell me cigarettes
- 22:55Speaker 2: and then find them if they did. I looked a
- 22:58Speaker 2: little older than I was. I'll just say that anyway.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Let's go to Amy online one in Boston.
- 23:03Speaker 15: Oh, Hello, Hi, good morning.
- 23:05Speaker 3: What do you got Amy?
- 23:06Speaker 15: So I was a runner for Corn for three days
- 23:10Speaker 15: as they were kicking off their tour around the band,
- 23:16Speaker 15: Yes the band. I was driving around Dave the drummer
- 23:20Speaker 15: and his bodyguard Lok, who had hell bound. That kind
- 23:25Speaker 15: of goes along with tattoos that you guys had the
- 23:28Speaker 15: other day. Hell bound on his neck and I almost
- 23:34Speaker 15: killed them the day.
- 23:36Speaker 4: How did you get.
- 23:37Speaker 3: Hooked up with them?
- 23:39Speaker 15: I used to work in the hotel industry, and I
- 23:44Speaker 15: worked a lot with the entertainment industry, and I just
- 23:47Speaker 15: I somehow got caught up in.
- 23:50Speaker 9: A lot of that stuff.
- 23:51Speaker 15: So I have a lot of a lot of good stories.
- 23:55Speaker 15: I got to watch the show. I got to watch
- 23:57Speaker 15: the show from from the stage that night. She was
- 24:00Speaker 15: totally the safest place in the venue.
- 24:03Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because of the marshpits at the show, right,
- 24:05Speaker 2: people running around smashing each other.
- 24:07Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's crazy. Oh good one, Amy, Thank you
- 24:11Speaker 3: so much for the callow corn. That's a corn show.
- 24:14Speaker 3: I have not I actually have really not going to
- 24:17Speaker 3: mash pit, but it was. It was pretty wild.
- 24:20Speaker 16: I was really ambitious. When I was a teen. I
- 24:22Speaker 16: took on a random job from Craigslist once where I
- 24:25Speaker 16: ended up in a car with this guy going to
- 24:28Speaker 16: upstate New York to actually replace computers at a school.
- 24:32Speaker 16: I never went back, but I definitely learned a good
- 24:35Speaker 16: life lesson that time.
- 24:36Speaker 2: Okay, well, this segment is good because there likely are
- 24:43Speaker 2: people listening that are in a job like they don't
- 24:46Speaker 2: want to be in true you know, maybe they're just
- 24:47Speaker 2: starting out and they have dreams and maybe doing something different, and.
- 24:51Speaker 3: This is like a lesson that you can do it.
- 24:53Speaker 11: Another auto one that I had to remember circuit cities. Yeah, yeah,
- 24:56Speaker 11: there was one right up the street here. Oh yeah,
- 25:00Speaker 11: is that a best fine? I know exactly where it is,
- 25:03Speaker 11: but it's next to the home depot. But growing up
- 25:05Speaker 11: there was one of native I think it was a
- 25:07Speaker 11: Route nine, And I used to install car.
- 25:09Speaker 3: Audio, like you remember that.
- 25:11Speaker 11: So I became like popped in out your radio or
- 25:13Speaker 11: wanted new speakers in your car, like remote car starters
- 25:16Speaker 11: or like subwarfers. Like I was a guy in the
- 25:18Speaker 11: bay in the back that was installing car audio, and
- 25:21Speaker 11: I still remember on my very like or one of
- 25:22Speaker 11: my first days. I was young until like sixteen seventies.
- 25:24Speaker 11: I was kind of learning and going at the same time.
- 25:26Speaker 11: But I always knew a little bit about electrical work.
- 25:30Speaker 11: At one point, my boss, who was like a younger
- 25:32Speaker 11: guy at that point too, he was like, hey, go
- 25:33Speaker 11: in the back, we need a flex capacitor. And I
- 25:36Speaker 11: didn't want to say I didn't know what a fuck
- 25:37Speaker 11: capacitor was. So I'm on the back looking everywhere for
- 25:39Speaker 11: a fuck capassador. I can't find that. I can't find it, obviously,
- 25:43Speaker 11: das from Back to the Future.
- 25:44Speaker 3: It's a fake thing. But got hour.
- 25:47Speaker 11: I spent this hour because you know, you don't want
- 25:49Speaker 11: to meet your boss when you're young. You're like, right,
- 25:51Speaker 11: I'm like, oh, your ma should probably know what a fox.
- 25:53Speaker 11: I'm like, you know, like I can't google as almost
- 25:56Speaker 11: like look at through every little speaker.
- 25:58Speaker 3: I'm like, what what the fux capacitor? God? That reminds me.
- 26:02Speaker 2: I used to work at Friendlies as a as a
- 26:03Speaker 2: line cook, and we used to mess with new employees
- 26:06Speaker 2: on the first day and we'd send them back to
- 26:08Speaker 2: get the sprinkle maker, so they'd be down there looking
- 26:11Speaker 2: in the back room for them. They come back and
- 26:13Speaker 2: I can't find Circuit City.
- 26:15Speaker 3: It's funny.
- 26:16Speaker 2: You used to used to install car stereos and I
- 26:18Speaker 2: used to steal them. Let's go, Let's go to Carry

- 27:11Speaker 17: and you know, they'd walk around and tour you in
- 27:14Speaker 17: the facility and you'd have to kind of you know,
- 27:16Speaker 17: like take notes and you know, and then get back
- 27:19Speaker 17: to them on you know, just how the facility looked, cleanliness,

- 28:13Speaker 16: when I worked at the New York City Parks Department.
- 28:16Speaker 16: I was the one who wrote a lot of the
- 28:17Speaker 16: speeches when they opened things like the Highline Park. I
- 28:21Speaker 16: had a lot of good park jokes.
- 28:24Speaker 3: He wrote the speech.
- 28:25Speaker 4: Oh that's pretty cool.
- 28:26Speaker 11: I did pretty smart, well educated. Yeah yeah, I guess
- 28:28Speaker 11: so you don't want me writing your speech now?
- 28:31Speaker 2: Me neither, although I did. I did take a class,
- 28:33Speaker 2: a speech writing class in college, and I was kind
- 28:36Speaker 2: of I got kind of good at it.
