- 0:05Speaker 2: It's Saturday morning, so let's get right into the best
- 0:07Speaker 2: of Billy and Lisa in the morning.
- 0:08Speaker 1: I'm producer Riley going to count down the top five
- 0:11Speaker 1: moments of the week with you. And this is number five.
- 0:15Speaker 2: For some reason, we landed on a list of mascots
- 0:18Speaker 2: and how.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Much money they make.
- 0:20Speaker 3: And you'll be.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Very surprised because we definitely were.
- 0:23Speaker 3: We found a list and Lisa, it's sitting right in
- 0:26Speaker 3: front of you. And we're shocked. And how much money
- 0:30Speaker 3: some of the mascots around professional sports are making.
- 0:33Speaker 4: Have you seen this list, Producer Riley? Have you, Bill?
- 0:37Speaker 3: Some of it, but not the whole.
- 0:38Speaker 4: Can we guess some of these?
- 0:40Speaker 3: Sure. You want to guess at who makes the most money?
- 0:43Speaker 4: Yeah, just run through the list. I want to have
- 0:45Speaker 4: some fun. We can play along with our listeners.
- 0:46Speaker 5: Okay, so we'll do the top five. How about that?
- 0:50Speaker 3: Okay.
- 0:52Speaker 6: Who do you think, out of all of the Sports
- 0:55Speaker 6: teams in Boston is number five on the list.
- 1:00Speaker 4: I'm going to say Lucky the Leprechaun.
- 1:05Speaker 3: At number five? At number five.
- 1:07Speaker 2: I think I'm going to agree because he's like the face.
- 1:09Speaker 2: So I think Lucky too.
- 1:11Speaker 5: So you guys are going with Lucky. That would be
- 1:14Speaker 5: a no.
- 1:14Speaker 7: Incorrect?
- 1:16Speaker 8: Incorrect.
- 1:16Speaker 3: I would say the Bruins blade.
- 1:20Speaker 9: Nope.
- 1:20Speaker 5: That would be incorrect.
- 1:22Speaker 4: It's not.
- 1:22Speaker 5: It is our favorite Wally the Green Monster.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Wally's at number five?
- 1:26Speaker 5: For the Red Sox. Now, what do you think his
- 1:30Speaker 5: salary is?
- 1:31Speaker 3: Oh, okay. Okay. Now we're talking about Wally. This is Wally.
- 1:34Speaker 5: We're talking about Wally.
- 1:35Speaker 4: At number five, I'm going to say $ 100, 000.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 1:41Speaker 1: That's really high.
- 1:42Speaker 4: You think?
- 1:42Speaker 3: Oh, I'm going to say higher.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Oh.
- 1:45Speaker 3: Ooh. Okay.
- 1:46Speaker 4: All right. We're all over the place.
- 1:50Speaker 3: I'm going to say $ 200, 000. Oh, my God.
- 1:51Speaker 5: I was thinking like $ 65, 000.
- 1:54Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:54Speaker 4: You guys, it's $ 250, 000.
- 1:56Speaker 3: No way!
- 1:56Speaker 5: Oh, my God! It's $ 250, 000. Wally the Green Monster makes
- 1:59Speaker 5: more than a.
- 2:00Speaker 3: Software developer and other jobs like that in the Boston area.
- 2:11Speaker 3: But in Wally's defense, I mean, it sounds like a
- 2:13Speaker 3: lot of money, but keep in mind, their life is
- 2:15Speaker 3: not their own. Besides being at the games for every game,
- 2:19Speaker 3: they've got to go on charity things. They have to
- 2:20Speaker 3: visit schools.
- 2:23Speaker 5: Right. They're working very hard all year long.
- 2:26Speaker 4: Okay. They're not building skyscrapers.
- 2:29Speaker 8: True.
- 2:30Speaker 4: Or, you know, digging ditches.
- 2:32Speaker 3: I started by saying I was shocked when I heard
- 2:34Speaker 3: some of the salaries for some of the mask workers.
- 2:36Speaker 4: Okay. What's number four? Okay.
- 2:38Speaker 5: So there's a tie. There's a tie with the Flyers.
- 2:41Speaker 5: So an NHL team.
- 2:43Speaker 1: Oh, so this is Gritty.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Yes. Who's like a big, he's like a big deal
- 2:47Speaker 2: in the NHL world.
- 2:48Speaker 3: Oh, really?
- 2:48Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 2:49Speaker 4: How much, Gritty makes more than.
- 2:52Speaker 5: no gritty and wally make the same amount of.
- 2:54Speaker 3: Money quarter million dollars each gritty that actually makes sense
- 3:00Speaker 3: to me for some reason i don't know why because
- 3:01Speaker 3: he does.
- 3:02Speaker 2: Like stunts where he like comes down from like the
- 3:04Speaker 2: roof they like hook him.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Up and make him come down on the.
- 3:08Speaker 2: Ice gritty gritty oh he'd be flying yeah all right
- 3:12Speaker 2: yeah that's all right.
- 3:13Speaker 6: Yeah maybe so um okay now we have the top
- 3:17Speaker 6: three Who do you think is the third on the
- 3:21Speaker 6: list nationally as a mascot?
- 3:23Speaker 4: Okay, nationally.
- 3:24Speaker 5: And I want to give you a hint. The top
- 3:26Speaker 5: three are all in the same sport.
- 3:30Speaker 3: Well, if five is baseball. I'm going to go basketball.
- 3:34Speaker 6: Okay, so we're in on basketball.
- 3:38Speaker 5: Yep, we're all NBA mascots.
- 3:41Speaker 4: I'm going to go Lucky the Leprechaun again.
- 3:44Speaker 5: He's not even on the list, you guys.
- 3:45Speaker 3: Oh, my God. He's not in the top ten.
- 3:46Speaker 5: He's not in the top ten.
- 3:47Speaker 1: I won't lie. I don't really know any of the
- 3:49Speaker 1: NBA mascots.
- 3:49Speaker 3: But he risks his life. I mean, he does flips
- 3:52Speaker 3: and somersaults and crashes up against the boards.
- 3:57Speaker 5: You will not believe how much these mascots are.
- 3:59Speaker 3: I'm going to go Lakers are high on the list.
- 4:01Speaker 4: Okay, I'll go Knicks then. I'll change my Knicks.
- 4:03Speaker 5: Nope. Number three is Chicago.
- 4:06Speaker 3: Oh, the Bulls? Yeah, Bulls.
- 4:10Speaker 5: So what do you think Benny the Bull is making, Riley?
- 4:13Speaker 3: Oh, boy.
- 4:14Speaker 1: Well, it's got to be over $ 200, 000. So, I don't know.
- 4:16Speaker 4: $ 300, 000.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Higher?
- 4:18Speaker 1: Half a mil?
- 4:20Speaker 3: Keep going.
- 4:21Speaker 2: What?
- 4:21Speaker 5: 400 gram. Whoa.
- 4:24Speaker 3: So, it's a half million for Benny the Bull?
- 4:26Speaker 4: The Bull. I know.
- 4:28Speaker 3: How do I get that job? I know.
- 4:30Speaker 4: Are they hiring?
- 4:31Speaker 3: Well, you're in the Bruins organization. You could start shooting
- 4:34Speaker 3: for Mascot.
- 4:35Speaker 4: Yeah, Producer Riley works for the Bruins.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Yeah, but Blades isn't on that list, and also, I
- 4:38Speaker 2: don't know how.
- 4:38Speaker 4: To skate, so.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Well, clearly, you're going to ask for more money. So Riley,
- 4:43Speaker 3: he's not.
- 4:44Speaker 4: Okay.
- 4:44Speaker 2: All right.
- 4:45Speaker 4: Moving on.
- 4:45Speaker 5: All right. Number two is Harry the Hawk of the
- 4:48Speaker 5: Atlantic Hawks.
- 4:50Speaker 9: Hold on.
- 4:50Speaker 8: Hold on.
- 4:51Speaker 5: How much do you think?
- 4:52Speaker 4: I mean, it's more. I'm going to say half a milli.
- 4:54Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:55Speaker 5: Keep going.
- 4:55Speaker 2: 600?
- 4:55Speaker 4: 600 grand.
- 4:56Speaker 3: Wow.
- 4:56Speaker 1: Harry the Hawk.
- 5:00Speaker 4: And that's number two?
- 5:01Speaker 5: Yes.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Okay.
- 5:02Speaker 5: What are these people doing?
- 5:03Speaker 1: Are they, like, flying around? Like, why are they making
- 5:05Speaker 1: so much?
- 5:06Speaker 3: They don't travel with the team. I don't think so.
- 5:08Speaker 5: All right.
- 5:10Speaker 4: I don't know. We have to check on that.
- 5:11Speaker 3: I think while the team's away, they do other charitable things.
- 5:14Speaker 1: No, I mean, like, flying from the sky. Like, why
- 5:16Speaker 1: are they making so much money?
- 5:18Speaker 3: Oh, well, yeah, that's a lot of dough.
- 5:21Speaker 2: $ 600, 000.
- 5:21Speaker 4: Must be in high demand.
- 5:22Speaker 6: It's so interesting that the NBA are the top three
- 5:24Speaker 6: because in the NFL, the mascots are lower paid. like
- 5:29Speaker 6: Pat the Patriot brings in around $ 65, 000 to $ 70, 000 annually.
- 5:33Speaker 6: That's what this AI search and overview has given us.
- 5:38Speaker 4: It's a big disparity.
- 5:39Speaker 3: But when you think of it, right, think of the
- 5:41Speaker 3: NFL and NFL teams, they don't really play up their
- 5:43Speaker 3: mascots as much as certainly baseball or basketball.
- 5:48Speaker 4: Pat the Patriot, he runs out on the field.
- 5:51Speaker 3: He's everywhere.
- 5:52Speaker 4: I know.
- 5:52Speaker 5: All right, so number one. On the list.
- 5:56Speaker 3: The highest paid mascot.
- 5:57Speaker 6: The highest paid mascot in the country is Rocky the
- 6:00Speaker 6: Mountain Lion for the Denver Nuggets.
- 6:03Speaker 4: What?
- 6:03Speaker 9: Yep.
- 6:04Speaker 4: Okay, so it's got to be more than $ 600, 000. Mm-hmm.
- 6:07Speaker 4: I'm going to say $ 700, 000? No, it's $ 625, 000.
- 6:09Speaker 3: Okay.
- 6:11Speaker 4: Okay.
- 6:11Speaker 3: All right, so a little bit more. Over $ 600, 000 for
- 6:15Speaker 3: the Denver Nugget.
- 6:16Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
- 6:17Speaker 1: That's insane. I don't even know if I could pick
- 6:19Speaker 1: him out of a lineup.
- 6:20Speaker 3: What do we call him? The Mountain Lion?
- 6:21Speaker 5: He's Rocky the Mountain Lion.
- 6:24Speaker 3: That's got to be a hard suit to put on.
- 6:26Speaker 4: Rocky, huh?
- 6:27Speaker 3: How does he fill all four legs?
- 6:31Speaker 1: I think he stands up straight, Bill.
- 6:33Speaker 10: Oh, okay.
- 6:36Speaker 4: Here comes Rocky.
- 6:37Speaker 3: Who threw the chicken nugget?
- 6:41Speaker 11: I actually got pitched Lucky the Leprechaun to come on
- 6:44Speaker 11: the show. Should I book him?
- 6:46Speaker 3: Well, it's going to be kind of, well.
- 6:48Speaker 2: I know.
- 6:48Speaker 3: I'd say we book him.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Can we ask him about this list?
- 6:51Speaker 4: No, I don't want to shame him. I'm sure he
- 6:53Speaker 4: does fine.
- 6:54Speaker 3: No, we'll root for him. We'll fight for more money
- 6:56Speaker 3: for Lucky the Leprechaun.
- 6:59Speaker 5: Do you want to hear one more fun fact?
- 7:00Speaker 4: I would love to.
- 7:01Speaker 5: Okay. Social media earnings.
- 7:03Speaker 6: Beyond their base team salaries, some highly recognizable characters pull
- 7:06Speaker 6: in significant side income, including Benny the Bull, who was
- 7:10Speaker 6: number three in the list at $ 400, 000.
- 7:12Speaker 5: Okay.
- 7:13Speaker 6: He can generate over $ 1 million per year in potential
- 7:16Speaker 6: valuation via Instagram presence alone.
- 7:19Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking about Gritty, too, because he's
- 7:22Speaker 2: so well-known on social media.
- 7:23Speaker 1: That's how he became like.
- 7:24Speaker 5: A big thing.
- 7:25Speaker 2: Yes.
- 7:26Speaker 4: So they're making even more than their salary.
- 7:30Speaker 3: A million?
- 7:30Speaker 1: They're like an influencer.
- 7:32Speaker 3: Plus the $ 500, 000, $ 600, 000?
- 7:34Speaker 4: That's wild.
- 7:36Speaker 5: Go put the costume on.
- 7:37Speaker 3: It's too late. Justin, you would make a quad guard.
- 7:42Speaker 3: You'd make an awesome mascot.
- 7:44Speaker 4: I'll dress up.
- 7:45Speaker 3: Bigger than life.
- 7:46Speaker 11: I can't do flips and stuff like Lucky, but I
- 7:49Speaker 11: can run around and take pictures.
- 7:52Speaker 3: God, I should have. Conducted my life better. You would
- 7:57Speaker 3: make a great mascot.
- 7:58Speaker 4: You would make a great mascot.
- 8:00Speaker 3: Right?
- 8:00Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 8:01Speaker 2: No, because the issue is mascots don't talk and Billy
- 8:03Speaker 2: would not be.
- 8:04Speaker 3: Able to stay silent. Oh, I'd never shut up.
- 8:06Speaker 4: That's true.
- 8:07Speaker 3: Okay, you need to be knocking on my mascot head.
- 8:10Speaker 3: You need to stop talking. Oh, man.
- 8:15Speaker 2: All right.
- 8:15Speaker 11: Well, yeah, maybe I'll book Lucky the Leprechaun. The Celt
- 8:18Speaker 11: season is kicking off in October.
- 8:20Speaker 5: We need to coach him on how to make more money.
- 8:22Speaker 3: You know what else is weird? I think I might
- 8:24Speaker 3: know Wally.
- 8:25Speaker 5: I think you might. We're not supposed to say that,
- 8:28Speaker 5: but I think you do.
- 8:29Speaker 4: Well, get Wally in here.
- 8:30Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 8:30Speaker 3: All right. I'll work on that.
- 8:31Speaker 4: I'll work on Lucky.
- 8:32Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 8:33Speaker 4: Welcome Lucky the Leprechaun.
- 8:34Speaker 3: Shame.
- 8:35Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:36Speaker 4: No, just kidding. Just kidding.
- 8:38Speaker 1: It's the number four moment.
- 8:39Speaker 2: This one actually got a little bit heated in the
- 8:42Speaker 2: studio and then also on the talkbacks. We were talking
- 8:45Speaker 2: about having a conversation before somebody proposes.
- 8:49Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of mixed opinions on this.
- 8:51Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's on the Billy and Lisa Morning Show.
- 8:53Speaker 3: We always talk about something. We always have something that
- 8:56Speaker 3: has us bugged. on the Billy and Lisa Morning Show.
- 8:59Speaker 3: And this morning, you're going to talk about proposals, right?
- 9:03Speaker 3: I mean, should a proposal be a surprise or should
- 9:06Speaker 3: it be something you talk about, right, Lisa?
- 9:08Speaker 6: Exactly, and it came up because your anniversary is coming
- 9:10Speaker 6: up on October 1st, and we were asking you off
- 9:12Speaker 6: the air how you proposed to Michelle.
- 9:15Speaker 5: So that was the topic.
- 9:16Speaker 3: Yeah, and for me, it was a surprise. Now, did
- 9:19Speaker 3: she probably know it was coming at some point in
- 9:22Speaker 3: our lives? Yeah, but I still wanted to do it
- 9:26Speaker 3: without her knowing anything about it.
- 9:28Speaker 4: Yeah, it was the same for me. It was a
- 9:30Speaker 4: complete surprise.
- 9:31Speaker 11: 877-617-1108 is our phone number or hit the talkbacks right now.
- 9:36Speaker 11: What do you think? Because Billy and I, our proposals
- 9:38Speaker 11: were a complete surprise. Whereas Lisa and producer Riley, they
- 9:42Speaker 11: want some discussion. On the proposal, on the ring.
- 9:46Speaker 3: Right.
- 9:46Speaker 6: But also, I think that that a surprise is nice, too.
- 9:50Speaker 6: You know what I mean? But again, I'm sure you
- 9:52Speaker 6: guys had general conversations at least once in the relationship stage,
- 9:57Speaker 6: even if it's just once.
- 9:59Speaker 5: Like you knew.
- 10:00Speaker 9: Right.
- 10:00Speaker 5: So we're not saying like. I don't know, but Justin,
- 10:03Speaker 5: I think you did it like really surprised. Like you
- 10:05Speaker 5: didn't even have a discussion.
- 10:06Speaker 4: No discussion.
- 10:07Speaker 11: Like I just went and picked out a ring.
- 10:09Speaker 5: And off you went.
- 10:10Speaker 11: I called my mother-in-law because her father had passed. Asked for,
- 10:13Speaker 11: you know, permission.
- 10:14Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 10:14Speaker 4: And then it was off.
- 10:16Speaker 9: Wow.
- 10:16Speaker 3: You did old school. You asked for permission, too.
- 10:19Speaker 4: I did. Yeah.
- 10:20Speaker 11: You know, the classic story is my mother-in-law, Nani, was
- 10:22Speaker 11: like I said to her, asked her the hand in marriage.
- 10:25Speaker 4: And she said, you sure you want to do that?
- 10:29Speaker 4: best of luck to you.
- 10:30Speaker 11: Hilarious yeah but producer riley we're talking to her and
- 10:35Speaker 11: she says that she would actually even say no i just.
- 10:39Speaker 2: Think that if you are not on the same page
- 10:42Speaker 2: with somebody like if the proposal is coming out of
- 10:45Speaker 2: nowhere and you've not discussed it at all like you're
- 10:49Speaker 2: walking into the future blind and i don't think that
- 10:52Speaker 2: i would want that i think that if I was
- 10:53Speaker 2: dating somebody and marriage had never even come up and
- 10:57Speaker 2: they got down on one knee. I'd be like, what
- 10:59Speaker 2: are you doing? Where is this coming from? Like, I'd
- 11:02Speaker 2: be like shocked.
- 11:03Speaker 1: I don't even know what I'd say.
- 11:04Speaker 5: But I agree with you. I think that would be
- 11:06Speaker 5: so strange.
- 11:07Speaker 6: Like, Justin, you never had a conversation with Jen about
- 11:11Speaker 6: spending the rest of your lives.
- 11:12Speaker 2: No.
- 11:12Speaker 4: And maybe it's old school.
- 11:13Speaker 11: I just thought it would surprise would be good. Now,
- 11:16Speaker 11: mind you, the ring I could afford was very cheap.
- 11:19Speaker 11: It was not the best ring, but she acted like
- 11:21Speaker 11: it was great. I think she really didn't really like it.
- 11:24Speaker 3: She did the right thing.
- 11:24Speaker 4: But she'd never let me know that.
- 11:26Speaker 3: Riley's comments about the ring were shocking to me. She
- 11:30Speaker 3: said if he gave her a ring proposing and she
- 11:33Speaker 3: didn't like the ring, she'd say, get that away from me.
- 11:36Speaker 3: How dare you give me that? You don't even know me.
- 11:39Speaker 3: How do you not know I would hate that ring?
- 11:41Speaker 2: Right.
- 11:42Speaker 1: I did say that.
- 11:43Speaker 3: You did say that.
- 11:43Speaker 1: And I stand by that.
- 11:44Speaker 3: Okay.
- 11:45Speaker 1: I just think that.
- 11:46Speaker 2: If somebody's proposing to you, and it's something that you
- 11:49Speaker 2: would never wear.
- 11:51Speaker 1: It's something that you're like.
- 11:53Speaker 2: I just think that if somebody proposed to you with
- 11:55Speaker 2: a ring that you would not like, it's like, again,
- 11:58Speaker 2: like Billy said.
- 11:59Speaker 1: You don't know me.
- 12:00Speaker 2: Why would you want to marry me when you don't
- 12:02Speaker 2: even know what kind of ring I'd want to wear
- 12:03Speaker 2: for the rest of my life?
- 12:05Speaker 5: Well, and that's that's a discussion thing, right?
- 12:07Speaker 6: Like he never got to know you and never asked
- 12:10Speaker 6: even a family member or a friend.
- 12:12Speaker 2: And that's not to say that like I have to
- 12:15Speaker 2: pick out the ring. I'm not saying that. I'm just
- 12:18Speaker 2: saying there are things that I would. Never see myself wearing.
- 12:21Speaker 2: And if you never picked up on that at all.
- 12:24Speaker 3: Yeah, but see, I don't think it's about the ring.
- 12:27Speaker 5: It's OK. Here's the thing.
- 12:29Speaker 6: It's it's it's not. And and I think we're all
- 12:32Speaker 6: talking about the same thing here. I mean, Justin, you
- 12:34Speaker 6: and Jen, it was about your commitment to her and
- 12:36Speaker 6: the fact that like.
- 12:37Speaker 4: Yes.
- 12:37Speaker 5: She just wanted to be with you.
- 12:39Speaker 6: And that's like the basis of what it should be about.
- 12:41Speaker 5: Obviously, obviously, like the fact that someone's even.
- 12:46Speaker 6: Wanting to give you a ring is like that's the
- 12:48Speaker 6: most it's a symbol. It's a symbol of like your
- 12:51Speaker 6: love together.
- 12:52Speaker 5: Yes.
- 12:52Speaker 4: But I do.
- 12:53Speaker 11: I do see Riley's point, whereas that ring is going
- 12:55Speaker 11: to be on your finger.
- 12:57Speaker 5: I see your point. And to your point, things have changed.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Imagine the poor guy, though. He goes from on one
- 13:03Speaker 3: knee to proposing his love for life of Riley and says,
- 13:07Speaker 3: get away from me.
- 13:08Speaker 11: It would be like one of those viral videos that
- 13:10Speaker 11: we see all the time of the random proposal and
- 13:12Speaker 11: the girl's like.
- 13:13Speaker 6: Or like on the jumbotron at a baseball game and
- 13:16Speaker 6: like the girl standing there.
- 13:18Speaker 5: But ironically, though, Jen did upgrade her ring, right?
- 13:21Speaker 11: That's how I kind of knew that she didn't like
- 13:23Speaker 11: the ring for like the first 10 years because I
- 13:25Speaker 11: upgraded it this summer and got her a legit ring
- 13:28Speaker 11: and she was like in heaven.
- 13:29Speaker 3: By the way, another thing when proposing, leave the family
- 13:32Speaker 3: at home. Let's go to Jackie and Gabriel. Hey, Jackie,
- 13:36Speaker 3: what do you think?
- 13:38Speaker 8: Hey, good morning. So I actually was like a half
- 13:42Speaker 8: and half on the proposal. So I woke up the
- 13:46Speaker 8: morning of knowing he was going to propose that day.
- 13:51Speaker 8: It just kind of happened that it worked out timing wise.
- 13:54Speaker 8: He invited his dad and stepmom and a bunch of
- 13:57Speaker 8: my family was there.
- 13:59Speaker 7: So, Jackie, you knew the whole thing?
- 14:05Speaker 8: So I didn't know how and when he was going
- 14:08Speaker 8: to do it. I woke up. So we were at
- 14:09Speaker 8: my family's cape house, and I woke up, and I
- 14:12Speaker 8: was like, all right, I think today is the day. Like,
- 14:14Speaker 8: it just made sense. And I figured, like, oh, later
- 14:18Speaker 8: tonight he'll take me for a walk on the beach and,
- 14:20Speaker 8: you know, the whole romantic, you know, propose on the
- 14:24Speaker 8: beach at, you know, sunset and stuff. And it actually
- 14:28Speaker 8: was not that. It was during the day when we
- 14:30Speaker 8: were at the beach with our families and, you I
- 14:35Speaker 8: left the beach for a moment. Our house is right
- 14:37Speaker 8: up the street. I went back to the house to
- 14:39Speaker 8: make a bunch of sandwiches and I came back and
- 14:42Speaker 8: everyone was there. He had a huge sign and there
- 14:45Speaker 8: was a random woman videotaping the whole thing. And I
- 14:48Speaker 8: was completely shocked.
- 14:49Speaker 4: Billy's nightmare.
- 14:50Speaker 3: I'm in hell right now. Somebody open the door.
- 14:54Speaker 10: I got to get out.
- 14:55Speaker 4: I'm in hell. But she liked it.
- 14:58Speaker 3: She loved it.
- 14:59Speaker 4: Jackie loved it.
- 14:59Speaker 5: Did you enjoy it?
- 15:00Speaker 8: It was great. I did, and my brother and his
- 15:03Speaker 8: girlfriend at the time were really into photography, so they
- 15:06Speaker 8: actually photographed everything, too. So he went ahead, my now
- 15:09Speaker 8: husband of almost 11 years, he went ahead and, like,
- 15:13Speaker 8: reached out to everyone and was like, this is what's
- 15:15Speaker 8: going to go on, this is what's happening, can you
- 15:16Speaker 8: take pictures, can you do this? And it was crazy.
- 15:20Speaker 3: Jackie, you should see Billy's.
- 15:21Speaker 4: I knew that was going to happen.
- 15:22Speaker 8: I had no idea.
- 15:23Speaker 3: Jackie, you said he had a sign. What was the
- 15:26Speaker 3: sign and how big was it?
- 15:29Speaker 8: So it was just a, like, I don't know, like
- 15:33Speaker 8: a four by six, not even that big. No, like
- 15:37Speaker 8: a wooden sign. He, like, painted and spray painted. It said,
- 15:41Speaker 8: will you marry me?
- 15:42Speaker 6: So I walked in.
- 15:45Speaker 8: So I walked down to the beach. So, like, I
- 15:49Speaker 8: walked down and I'm at the top of the stairs
- 15:51Speaker 8: and I see a huge sign on this beach. And
- 15:52Speaker 8: I'm like, well, this is also the time where kind
- 15:54Speaker 8: of sharks were sort of wandering around Cape Cod. So
- 15:58Speaker 8: I was like, oh, are we not supposed to be
- 16:00Speaker 8: in the water anymore or something? And it says, will
- 16:02Speaker 8: you marry me? And I was like, oh, my God,
- 16:03Speaker 8: are you kidding me right now? I had no idea.
- 16:05Speaker 5: Jackie, do you still have the sign?
- 16:08Speaker 7: Of course I do.
- 16:09Speaker 8: It's still hanging up in my house. I'm never giving
- 16:12Speaker 8: that up.
- 16:12Speaker 3: I thought you were going to ask, are you still married?
- 16:15Speaker 4: No, she's definitely still married.
- 16:16Speaker 5: It sounds like it worked for you, and we're so happy.
- 16:19Speaker 3: Good call, Jackie. Thank you. Very good call.
- 16:21Speaker 4: Guess we know what our wedding song was. Yes, she did. Yes,
- 16:29Speaker 4: she did. She opened up her eyes.
- 16:30Speaker 3: And there it was.
- 16:31Speaker 4: There it was.
- 16:31Speaker 1: So just a couple minutes ago, we were talking about
- 16:33Speaker 1: a topic time we had about having.
- 16:36Speaker 2: Conversations before you get proposed to or do the proposing.
- 16:41Speaker 2: This one, God, we had mixed opinions in studio between
- 16:45Speaker 2: ourselves and then you guys had some mixed opinions too.
- 16:49Speaker 1: It's the number three moment.
- 16:50Speaker 3: You've got talk back, Justin.
- 16:51Speaker 5: I think a surprise is the best. I had no idea.
- 16:55Speaker 8: I was in shock.
- 16:57Speaker 9: And when he whipped up the ring, my first thing was,
- 17:01Speaker 9: and then I said, stop.
- 17:03Speaker 8: And of course I started crying, but it was very beautiful.
- 17:07Speaker 3: Nice.
- 17:08Speaker 4: She liked the surprise.
- 17:09Speaker 3: And I love that scene you see in movies or
- 17:11Speaker 3: TV shows when the proposal happens and instantly the bride-to-be
- 17:14Speaker 3: starts crying because she's shocked.
- 17:18Speaker 12: Right.
- 17:19Speaker 4: Or then you have producer Riley, who's like.
- 17:21Speaker 3: Ugh, how dare you not talk to me?
- 17:24Speaker 2: I feel like Bill is, okay, taking this a little
- 17:26Speaker 2: out of context here. I think that a discussion can
- 17:29Speaker 2: be had, and the proposal can still be a surprise.
- 17:31Speaker 2: I'm not saying I want some guy to be like,
- 17:33Speaker 2: I'm proposing to you. I'm just saying I want to
- 17:35Speaker 2: make sure we're on the same page. And then when
- 17:37Speaker 2: the proposal happens, it's still, like, shocking.
- 17:40Speaker 1: Oh, my God, like, I didn't know you were proposing.
- 17:42Speaker 13: So I'm with Riley about the ring thing. I mean,
- 17:46Speaker 13: a ring is like a tattoo. You're going to have
- 17:48Speaker 13: to look at it the rest of your life or,
- 17:51Speaker 13: you know, as long as your marriage lasts. And you
- 17:54Speaker 13: want something that you're not going to look at every
- 17:56Speaker 13: day and be like, ugh, like he has no taste. Like,
- 17:59Speaker 13: you know, what is this? Like, what I did is
- 18:02Speaker 13: I picked out rings that I liked, and then he
- 18:05Speaker 13: surprised me with a ring that I liked. And I
- 18:07Speaker 13: was happy but also surprised. You can have the best
- 18:10Speaker 13: of both worlds.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Yeah, she gets me.
- 18:13Speaker 3: For the record, producer Riley flipped me the bird.
- 18:16Speaker 6: She did? I missed that.
- 18:17Speaker 1: It was a joking bird.
- 18:18Speaker 3: And it was a really aggressive one, too.
- 18:19Speaker 6: Yeah, but I also think if you're anywhere near social media,
- 18:22Speaker 6: social media is also giving permission to, like, be more
- 18:25Speaker 6: involved than ever before.
- 18:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 18:27Speaker 5: Because it's all you see.
- 18:30Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right. Everything's, like, in the public eye. It is.
- 18:32Speaker 3: Everything.
- 18:33Speaker 4: It's so much so different. But, yeah, Riley.
- 18:35Speaker 3: How dare you? It's so funny.
- 18:40Speaker 5: 100% have the proposal be a surprise.
- 18:42Speaker 13: It's one of the greatest.
- 18:43Speaker 3: Surprises in life.
- 18:44Speaker 6: But at the same time, before you get engaged, you
- 18:48Speaker 6: should be having active conversations about your future together and
- 18:51Speaker 6: if you all want to spend the.
- 18:53Speaker 5: Rest of your lives together.
- 18:54Speaker 9: So yes to a proposal being a surprise, no to
- 18:57Speaker 9: the entire concept of marriage being a surprise, if that
- 18:59Speaker 9: makes sense.
- 19:00Speaker 3: Right.
- 19:00Speaker 5: That's what we're saying.
- 19:01Speaker 4: Yes.
- 19:02Speaker 5: She got it. That talk backer.
- 19:03Speaker 4: That discussion.
- 19:04Speaker 3: Yes.
- 19:04Speaker 4: Let's go to Melissa on line two. She's in Salem.
- 19:07Speaker 3: Hey, Melissa. Hello to Salem. Oh, hi there. How are you?
- 19:12Speaker 2: Good.
- 19:12Speaker 3: What do we got, Melissa?
- 19:15Speaker 12: So my now husband, we've been married for about nine years,
- 19:19Speaker 12: completely surprised me and actually had me pulled over, probably.
- 19:24Speaker 12: He had dressed up in a police officer uniform because
- 19:27Speaker 12: his cousin was a cop. And so I thought that
- 19:32Speaker 12: I was getting pulled over slash maybe arrested because they
- 19:36Speaker 12: had me get out of the car. And he was
- 19:40Speaker 12: behind the car on one knee with a ring asking
- 19:44Speaker 12: me to marry him.
- 19:45Speaker 3: Oh, my God. I love your husband. Well, not in
- 19:48Speaker 3: that way, but.
- 19:50Speaker 5: that is so creative.
- 19:52Speaker 3: Really cool. It was, it was, yes.
- 19:55Speaker 12: Thankfully I was coming from a bridal shower and I
- 19:58Speaker 12: did not have any cocktails there because otherwise it probably
- 20:01Speaker 12: would have been a whole different situation. But, um, But
- 20:04Speaker 12: it was so fun. And yeah, it was just a
- 20:08Speaker 12: complete surprise. And we actually have it on video because,
- 20:12Speaker 12: you know, we have the dash cam and the body cam.
- 20:14Speaker 12: So we have like a big picture of, Him in
- 20:17Speaker 12: a police officer uniform.
- 20:19Speaker 3: Were handcuffs involved at any point in the night?
- 20:22Speaker 4: Good question.
- 20:23Speaker 3: Right, Justin? I know you were thinking it. I'm just
- 20:24Speaker 3: asking it.
- 20:28Speaker 4: That's a great story. I hear stories like that and
- 20:30Speaker 4: I think to myself, damn, I dropped the ball. Me too.
- 20:32Speaker 4: That was my first thought.
- 20:34Speaker 3: God, I thought I was creative.
- 20:35Speaker 4: Yeah. Let's go to Mike on line two.
- 20:38Speaker 1: Hey there, Riley, will you marry me?
- 20:41Speaker 4: Oh, there he is.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Please, please, Riley, will you marry me?
- 20:46Speaker 4: As long as there's a discussion.
- 20:47Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 20:48Speaker 1: And I see the ring.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 20:49Speaker 4: Let's go to Siobhan in Peabody. Line four.
- 20:52Speaker 3: Good morning, Siobhan. What do you think, Siobhan?
- 20:56Speaker 8: Good morning. I'm like 50-50 about it.
- 20:59Speaker 6: When I.
- 21:03Speaker 8: Got engaged my husband didn't tell me about it until
- 21:07Speaker 8: like a couple months before he.
- 21:09Speaker 13: Actually did it because he was like.
- 21:11Speaker 8: Very excited to show me the ring and he showed
- 21:13Speaker 8: it to me and it was the most ugliest thing
- 21:16Speaker 8: i've ever seen and then i talked him into returning
- 21:24Speaker 8: it and then buying me something that i really liked
- 21:29Speaker 8: um so like Discussion about the rings, yes, but I
- 21:33Speaker 8: didn't know exactly what was going to happen, the proposal itself.
- 21:37Speaker 3: And you guys are okay now, right?
- 21:40Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, I know.
- 21:40Speaker 8: We celebrate 10 years next month.
- 21:42Speaker 3: Congratulations. Yeah, I celebrate in a week or two.
- 21:46Speaker 5: Yes, you do.
- 21:47Speaker 3: Does anyone still do that thing with the ring and
- 21:50Speaker 3: the champagne glass?
- 21:53Speaker 4: I'm not sure.
- 21:53Speaker 3: You go out to dinner.
- 21:55Speaker 5: I haven't heard that in a while. Or they put
- 21:56Speaker 5: it in something.
- 21:57Speaker 6: Like they hide it in the meal.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Well, you could choke to death on the ring. You could.
- 22:04Speaker 3: That's true.
- 22:05Speaker 11: Mine was a complete surprise because it was Christmas morning.
- 22:08Speaker 11: And she had wanted a Pandora charm. So I bought
- 22:11Speaker 11: a Pandora, took that out, put the ring in there,
- 22:14Speaker 11: and I put the present in the back. So she
- 22:15Speaker 11: opened all of her gifts. And then the last one,
- 22:18Speaker 11: she unwrapped, and it was a Pandora box. So she thought,
- 22:21Speaker 11: it's the charm that I wanted. And then when she
- 22:23Speaker 11: opened it up, I was on one knee.
- 22:25Speaker 3: You, the romantic.
- 22:27Speaker 5: Weren't you in your underwear?
- 22:27Speaker 3: I was in my underwear. You're doing your underwear.
- 22:30Speaker 11: It was the morning time, and I had this whole
- 22:32Speaker 11: idea that it was going to go differently. But I'll
- 22:34Speaker 11: never forget, I proposed to her, and we embraced.
- 22:37Speaker 4: She said yes. And then I glanced over at the
- 22:40Speaker 4: window and the reflection.
- 22:41Speaker 3: And I was just.
- 22:43Speaker 4: In my underwear.
- 22:44Speaker 3: I know you. You were in your underwear because you
- 22:46Speaker 3: wanted to be ready.
- 22:48Speaker 11: That's a discussion for another day.
- 22:51Speaker 4: Right, Phil?
- 22:52Speaker 9: I've been single for 25 years. At this point, I'll
- 22:58Speaker 9: just let somebody on the street surprise me with a proposal.
- 23:03Speaker 9: But for real, if I was in a relationship, please
- 23:05Speaker 9: just get down on that damn knee. All right.
- 23:10Speaker 1: It's Saturday. So welcome back into the best Billy and
- 23:12Speaker 1: Lisa in the morning. I'm producer Riley.
- 23:14Speaker 2: So let's keep this going with the number two moment.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Craig Robinson was in studio. You might know him from
- 23:21Speaker 2: The Office, from Hot Tub Time Machine. More recently from
- 23:24Speaker 2: Toy Story 5. He is an icon. He sat down
- 23:27Speaker 2: with us. And this was just minutes after we broke
- 23:30Speaker 2: the jingle ball news. And you'll never guess what artist
- 23:34Speaker 2: he was most excited about.
- 23:35Speaker 3: You perform at your shows like. Yeah, yeah. I'm on
- 23:38Speaker 3: my keyboard. It's my partner, pretty much.
- 23:41Speaker 4: Oh, really?
- 23:41Speaker 7: And two other comics. But, yeah, it's a lot of music,
- 23:47Speaker 7: musical jokes and some sing-alongs.
- 23:48Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. Now, we don't have a keyboard here.
- 23:51Speaker 3: Can you give us a taste?
- 23:53Speaker 7: Hey, everybody in Boston, yeah. See, it would have been
- 23:57Speaker 7: funny with the keyboard.
- 23:58Speaker 5: Okay.
- 24:02Speaker 7: Lisa was like, okay.
- 24:04Speaker 5: Yeah, they were singing out in the hallway.
- 24:06Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. So this is hilarious. First of all, you're
- 24:09Speaker 3: one of those guys. All we have to do is
- 24:11Speaker 3: mention one of your projects, and you immediately start laughing
- 24:14Speaker 3: to yourself. I mean, you just, you know what I mean?
- 24:17Speaker 3: All of your titles, you know, whether it's The Officer
- 24:20Speaker 3: or anything, you think, oh, my God, that's right. He
- 24:21Speaker 3: was so damn funny in that. Thank you.
- 24:23Speaker 5: Do you have a favorite project?
- 24:25Speaker 3: Favorite?
- 24:27Speaker 7: This is, I was like, picking between your children.
- 24:30Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 24:31Speaker 7: I think People's is a movie I did that I
- 24:34Speaker 7: really adored just all throughout. There was a piano on set,
- 24:39Speaker 7: and that's probably what it was because we were singing
- 24:41Speaker 7: Harmony and all that kind of stuff.
- 24:43Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 24:43Speaker 7: But This is the End, The Office, all these are great.
- 24:48Speaker 7: I was thoroughly entertained just when we weren't shooting. So
- 24:53Speaker 7: that was a beautiful thing.
- 24:55Speaker 3: You know, everybody has two or three movies. That they
- 24:58Speaker 3: could see 25, 30 times and it'll be just as good,
- 25:01Speaker 3: just as funny. For me, one of those movies, one
- 25:04Speaker 3: of my top two would be your and I know
- 25:08Speaker 3: you see it coming. It would be your scene in
- 25:11Speaker 3: the movie, Knocked Up, when you're the doorman. And I
- 25:14Speaker 3: cry laughing. Justin, please tell me we have it. You're
- 25:19Speaker 3: a doorman, okay?
- 25:20Speaker 1: You're a doorman.
- 25:21Speaker 4: Doorman. Doorman!
- 25:23Speaker 3: So, f * * * you. Every single time, I
- 25:29Speaker 3: cry laughing.
- 25:30Speaker 7: Right on, right on. That was a very interesting time.
- 25:36Speaker 2: I was.
- 25:37Speaker 7: I had to, like, figure out a way to get
- 25:39Speaker 7: from Vegas to L.A. to film that and then back
- 25:41Speaker 7: to Vegas. So I ended up taking the night off
- 25:44Speaker 7: from doing the show. And, you know, I didn't have
- 25:47Speaker 7: any cash and stuff, so I was, like, flying standby.
- 25:50Speaker 7: It was real stressful. And I came in and, you know,
- 25:54Speaker 7: did that. And top of that, like, monologue, you could
- 25:57Speaker 7: say the first half was scripted and the bottom half was, like,
- 26:00Speaker 7: super improv.
- 26:02Speaker 3: Is that when you broke down and cried?
- 26:04Speaker 12: Yes.
- 26:05Speaker 3: Because that was the funniest part, actually.
- 26:07Speaker 7: I mean, it was part of the scene, but it
- 26:10Speaker 7: was like I didn't super cry. I just, you know,
- 26:13Speaker 7: it was kind of, you know.
- 26:16Speaker 4: I felt hurt. You're right.
- 26:16Speaker 3: No, I wasn't suggesting that you got overly emotional. It
- 26:19Speaker 3: wasn't like a breakdown.
- 26:21Speaker 4: No.
- 26:22Speaker 3: Whatever it was for you internally, it worked.
- 26:25Speaker 7: Oh, thank you very much.
- 26:26Speaker 3: It worked. Hot Tub Time Machine. Do you have a
- 26:28Speaker 3: memory from that, your favorite memory from that project?
- 26:33Speaker 7: One is... we were, it was getting heated on set,
- 26:37Speaker 7: like about some, something, should we do this? And, and
- 26:40Speaker 7: I just said, Hey, the movie's called hot tub time machine.
- 26:43Speaker 7: We can do whatever we want. We broke it from there. Also. I, uh,
- 26:49Speaker 7: I remember one, uh, do you remember the, the, the trailer?
- 26:52Speaker 7: And when I, when I looked at the camera and said,
- 26:54Speaker 7: it must be some kind of hot tub time machine
- 26:56Speaker 7: that pitched that idea the night before I was like,
- 26:59Speaker 7: cause Clark Duke was supposed to say that line. And then, uh,
- 27:03Speaker 7: And then I pitched to Steve Pink. I was like,
- 27:05Speaker 7: what if I just seriously looked at the camera and
- 27:07Speaker 7: said it, and the next thing, it was on the
- 27:09Speaker 7: call sheet the next morning.
- 27:10Speaker 10: Amazing.
- 27:11Speaker 3: Interesting, too, that Nickelback is in the lineup for our
- 27:14Speaker 3: Kiss on the Road.
- 27:14Speaker 4: Nickelback!
- 27:15Speaker 3: And as we were announcing it, you were sitting outside
- 27:19Speaker 3: our studio doors. And then somehow when you walked in,
- 27:22Speaker 3: you start telling us. A Nickelback story. So you actually
- 27:27Speaker 3: at one point in your life caught yourself singing Nickelback, right?
- 27:31Speaker 3: This is not a lie.
- 27:32Speaker 7: This is not a lie.
- 27:33Speaker 3: So. I've been wrong.
- 27:34Speaker 7: I've been down to the bottom of everybody.
- 27:38Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 27:39Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 27:39Speaker 7: That's my jam.
- 27:40Speaker 3: Justin, you want to give him some accompaniment on this one?
- 27:43Speaker 8: Any time you want.
- 27:45Speaker 3: Let's go.
- 27:45Speaker 7: Boy, you almost started sounding Creed-like for a second.
- 28:08Speaker 4: Sounds like billy.
- 28:10Speaker 3: Yeah i did creed one time you know maybe we
- 28:13Speaker 3: could do a duet so do you have songs particular
- 28:17Speaker 3: songs when you hit the stage tonight by the way
- 28:19Speaker 3: craig robinson has two shows tonight at laugh boston and
- 28:22Speaker 3: two shows again uh tomorrow night yeah.
- 28:25Speaker 7: Yeah that's uh this is a core core of something
- 28:28Speaker 7: there's sometimes you know you're filling out the crowd and
- 28:31Speaker 7: you might oh they might feel this one and that
- 28:33Speaker 7: so yeah it's uh There's a core, but there's definitely
- 28:37Speaker 7: things I do.
- 28:37Speaker 3: I think you should definitely get Nickelback in the mix.
- 28:40Speaker 7: I probably should.
- 28:41Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? That was damn good. That was,
- 28:44Speaker 3: and I couldn't help but notice how early, like you're
- 28:47Speaker 3: a big time movie star, musician, comedian, and how early
- 28:52Speaker 3: you got here. But it was weird. People in the
- 28:56Speaker 3: building actually thought we forgot you were here. How early
- 29:02Speaker 3: they came in. You know, Craig Robinson is outside the studio.
- 29:05Speaker 8: Yeah, we know.
- 29:07Speaker 5: We know.
- 29:07Speaker 4: He came in so early. You know who wasn't here?
- 29:09Speaker 5: You're a doorman.
- 29:13Speaker 3: That's a good question. When you go to clubs, if
- 29:15Speaker 3: you ever go to clubs, do people come up to
- 29:17Speaker 3: you and say, hey, you worked the door before, right?
- 29:19Speaker 3: Something stupid like that. Absolutely.
- 29:21Speaker 7: It's happened many times. But it did give me like,
- 29:25Speaker 7: you know, I could go anywhere in the States and
- 29:29Speaker 7: And just get in.
- 29:31Speaker 3: Oh, you know. You don't have to wait in line.
- 29:35Speaker 3: No lines for Craig.
- 29:37Speaker 4: Wow.
- 29:37Speaker 3: Amazing. The office. monster project to be involved with. Were
- 29:41Speaker 3: you shocked as well at how big it became? It's
- 29:44Speaker 3: still huge today.
- 29:46Speaker 7: Yeah, it is amazing. It's like you have friends everywhere,
- 29:50Speaker 7: you know, because everybody wants to buy you a drink
- 29:53Speaker 7: or this, that, and the other. But everybody has a
- 29:55Speaker 7: story about the Office, how it bonds their family or,
- 29:58Speaker 7: you know. It's the only thing that they can sit
- 30:01Speaker 7: down and watch somebody, or it's in the background as
- 30:03Speaker 7: they go to sleep, or it's their comfort show, all this.
- 30:06Speaker 7: So it is truly a blessing to be a part
- 30:09Speaker 7: of that.
- 30:10Speaker 3: It's funny, as you talk about it, everybody in the
- 30:13Speaker 3: area was nodding.
- 30:13Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 30:14Speaker 3: You're so right. Do you have a favorite office moment?
- 30:19Speaker 7: A moment? You know, there's one episode where I was
- 30:24Speaker 7: trying to get a raise, and also Mike– Michael Scott
- 30:31Speaker 7: had the, uh, lady clothes. And I think it was
- 30:33Speaker 7: a lady clothes episode. So it was a scene we're
- 30:36Speaker 7: sitting in there. And if you watch closely, so, uh,
- 30:40Speaker 7: we were negotiating and then Steve's line was, uh, I'm
- 30:44Speaker 7: declining to speak first. So, uh, we went through a
- 30:49Speaker 7: couple of takes and it was fine and whatever. And
- 30:50Speaker 7: then all of a sudden he started making these faces
- 30:53Speaker 7: and I started laughing and you could see the side
- 30:55Speaker 7: of my face kind of crack, uh, If you look.
- 30:59Speaker 7: But yeah, he's like, and then he goes into his thing.
- 31:02Speaker 7: But yeah, that was one of my favorite moments.
- 31:03Speaker 3: Now, you're the voice of Atlas the Hippo in Toy
- 31:07Speaker 3: Story 5. Take us behind the scenes there. Like, how
- 31:10Speaker 3: much studio time? I think that's harder than people realize.
- 31:14Speaker 7: I don't think it is.
- 31:17Speaker 9: No?
- 31:17Speaker 4: No, no.
- 31:18Speaker 3: Okay, let me take that back. Two shows tonight. Two
- 31:22Speaker 3: shows tomorrow.
- 31:22Speaker 7: You can go in. You can pretty much be in
- 31:24Speaker 7: your pajamas if you wanted to. But you go in
- 31:26Speaker 7: and you like... It's you collaborating with the director and
- 31:32Speaker 7: the producers so that, you know, throwing out jokes and
- 31:35Speaker 7: you're going back and we're going back and forth. So
- 31:38Speaker 7: it's a lot of fun. It's maybe, you know, a
- 31:40Speaker 7: few hours and you do that five or six times.
- 31:43Speaker 7: So it's not really that bad. And it depends on
- 31:47Speaker 7: the project and your part and all that. But my
- 31:50Speaker 7: character is, you know, he's a blue hippo old school toy.
- 31:55Speaker 7: He's the first GPS, right?
- 31:58Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 31:59Speaker 7: And toy form. So the movie's about old school toys
- 32:03Speaker 7: versus new school technology. I'm an old school toy, but
- 32:06Speaker 7: when I came out, I was new school technology. So, well,
- 32:10Speaker 7: low key, I'm the most important character.
- 32:12Speaker 5: You're the most important toy.
- 32:14Speaker 3: Of course you are. In fact, Taylor keeps calling this morning.
- 32:17Speaker 3: She's trying to get a clue. T-Sway. What's up, girl?
- 32:19Speaker 3: I'm kidding. Producer Riley just worked there. She's on the phone?
- 32:23Speaker 2: Where? The number one moment really shouldn't come as a
- 32:26Speaker 2: surprise to any of you. We announced the Jingle Ball
- 32:30Speaker 2: lineup on Friday. We are so excited, and so are
- 32:35Speaker 2: you guys. The reaction was insane.
- 32:37Speaker 3: We announced the lineup a few minutes ago. It is incredible.
- 32:41Speaker 3: Somber is one of our headliners, and it doesn't happen often,
- 32:45Speaker 3: but Somber has had four massive hits in one year alone,
- 32:49Speaker 3: and he's coming to Jingle Ball, and we all have
- 32:51Speaker 3: our own memories of From Jingle Ball. I think I
- 32:54Speaker 3: mentioned earlier, I remember all three of my boys just
- 32:56Speaker 3: growing up and coming to Jingle Ball. And the big challenge, Lisa,
- 32:59Speaker 3: is when you've got kids and they're young and they're
- 33:02Speaker 3: coming to Jingle Ball, they want to bring their friends, too.
- 33:05Speaker 5: Of course they do.
- 33:05Speaker 6: And they all walk in with their Santa hats on
- 33:08Speaker 6: and they just love it every single year.
- 33:10Speaker 5: It is the holiday tradition in Boston.
- 33:12Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 33:12Speaker 3: And, you know, one of the things we didn't mention
- 33:14Speaker 3: yet in terms of the artists, every time we're hanging
- 33:17Speaker 3: out backstage with the artists who are there and performing,
- 33:20Speaker 3: They're all telling us before they even say hello, we
- 33:23Speaker 3: love coming to Jingle Ball because they get to hang
- 33:26Speaker 3: out and relax and talk to a lot of the
- 33:29Speaker 3: other artists about what they're doing, where they're going. And
- 33:31Speaker 3: occasionally at our Jingle Ball, collaborations are born. I remember
- 33:36Speaker 3: weeks after Justin Bieber did our show one year. Next
- 33:39Speaker 3: thing you know, he had a collaboration with one of
- 33:41Speaker 3: the other acts that were at Jingle Ball. It's just fun,
- 33:44Speaker 3: even for the artists they love coming.
- 33:46Speaker 4: And that's why they come back. Yeah.
- 33:48Speaker 11: You know, Hilary Duff has done our shows before. She's
- 33:51Speaker 11: coming back. All the millennials are going crazy right now.
- 33:53Speaker 3: I bet.
- 33:56Speaker 4: We hit it all, right?
- 33:56Speaker 11: The throwback, nickelback, new somber, and Hilary Duff as well.
- 34:02Speaker 11: And they love coming back to Boston. That's the beautiful thing.
- 34:04Speaker 11: I always think about Sabrina Carpenter. That's what sticks out
- 34:06Speaker 11: to me. She's done our shows many times. And a
- 34:09Speaker 11: couple of years ago, she came to do the show,
- 34:12Speaker 11: came backstage for the interview, and Billie was just standing
- 34:15Speaker 11: there and waiting to do it. And I was watching
- 34:18Speaker 11: kind of from the side. As she walked into the
- 34:20Speaker 11: press room, she scanned it, saw Billy, and then ran
- 34:24Speaker 11: over to Billy and started talking to you. Wasn't part
- 34:26Speaker 11: of the interview, but I was smart. I ran over
- 34:29Speaker 11: and I put the mic up so I could hear
- 34:31Speaker 11: what she had to say.
- 34:31Speaker 8: Hi, Billy.
- 34:32Speaker 1: We've met before.
- 34:33Speaker 9: How are you?
- 34:33Speaker 5: Good to see you.
- 34:34Speaker 2: How are you? Good.
- 34:35Speaker 1: I remember this interview I did with you backstage.
- 34:38Speaker 2: I don't know if it was Jingle Ball, but I
- 34:39Speaker 2: was wearing a Coca-Cola t-shirt.
- 34:41Speaker 1: It's a very vivid memory in my life.
- 34:43Speaker 2: Oh, boy.
- 34:43Speaker 5: That was our last interview.
- 34:44Speaker 3: Am I supposed to apologize?
- 34:45Speaker 5: No.
- 34:46Speaker 8: Not remembering?
- 34:47Speaker 1: No, it was all positive.
- 34:49Speaker 3: That's why I brought it up.
- 34:50Speaker 12: Wow.
- 34:50Speaker 5: I just remember that interview so vividly.
- 34:52Speaker 4: Yeah, that was such a cool moment.
- 34:53Speaker 5: Her eyes lit up when she saw Billie.
- 34:56Speaker 6: She instantly calmed down and was so happy to see you.
- 34:59Speaker 3: But she's another example of an artist that did Jingle
- 35:03Speaker 3: Ball and exploded the year after. Instantly, she was on
- 35:06Speaker 3: Saturday Night Live. And then after Saturday Night Live launched
- 35:10Speaker 3: the tour, and she had one song after another after another.
- 35:13Speaker 3: And it started at Jingle Ball in a big way. Yeah.
- 35:16Speaker 4: Yeah, it's so cool.
- 35:17Speaker 3: She was fun.
- 35:18Speaker 11: Yeah, it's so cool. So, yeah, the lineup this year,
- 35:20Speaker 11: I don't know. People are buzzing about it. People are
- 35:22Speaker 11: really buzzing about it. Sombra, Hilary Duff, Nickelback, and Stella Lefty, too.
- 35:27Speaker 11: You forget about Stella. Number one song on country radio.
- 35:31Speaker 3: Incredible.
- 35:31Speaker 9: You know the only way I'm getting the jingle ball
- 35:34Speaker 9: is with my mom and the Capital One preset.
- 35:38Speaker 3: Well, yeah. Yeah, that's Tuesday morning at 10, by the way.
- 35:41Speaker 4: If you're a kid and you don't have a Capital
- 35:43Speaker 4: One card, you got to hit up mom and dad.
- 35:45Speaker 3: Yeah, and Lisa brought up a point a couple of
- 35:46Speaker 3: minutes ago. You need the date. Don't forget the date
- 35:49Speaker 3: is December 13th.
- 35:51Speaker 14: Right.
- 35:51Speaker 4: Yes. Yeah, that's important, I would say.
- 35:54Speaker 10: Super excited for that lineup. That sounds incredible. Not going
- 35:58Speaker 10: to lie, one of the talkbackers sounded like they said pickleback.
- 36:01Speaker 10: I got pretty excited, even though it's nickelback.
- 36:04Speaker 3: I like them both. Anything pickle. I love anything. God,
- 36:11Speaker 3: you know, they don't tell me anything. You guys typically
- 36:13Speaker 3: don't tell me anything. And when I heard Nickelback, I'm like, what?
- 36:18Speaker 3: That is so cool.
- 36:20Speaker 4: Oh, yeah. So cool.
- 36:21Speaker 1: Good morning, guys. Queen Queso here. Happy Friday.
- 36:25Speaker 10: Can't wait to go out later and grab a margarita
- 36:27Speaker 10: and some Queso.
- 36:28Speaker 5: Maybe get a little Queso double.
- 36:30Speaker 2: We'll see.
- 36:31Speaker 14: But anyway, listening to the Jingle Ball lineup this morning
- 36:34Speaker 14: in the shower, I manifested that I'm going this year.
- 36:37Speaker 14: I have never been to Jingle Ball, and I'm going.
- 36:41Speaker 6: That's it.
- 36:45Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to get tickets one way or another.
- 36:48Speaker 3: It starts Tuesday morning at 10 with the Capital One
- 36:50Speaker 3: ticket holders. But I'm telling you, you have to move
- 36:53Speaker 3: fast on Jingle Ball. It happens every year. All of
- 36:57Speaker 3: a sudden, there's a panic. Everybody's like, oh, my God,
- 36:59Speaker 3: I need Jingle Ball tickets. I didn't get the tickets.
- 37:01Speaker 3: You get the tickets? No, I thought you were getting
- 37:02Speaker 3: the tickets.
- 37:03Speaker 5: And this is such a great gift, too, right?
- 37:05Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 37:06Speaker 5: Like instant hit.
- 37:07Speaker 3: Early Christmas. We're going to Jingle Ball.
- 37:10Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, I would say. Yeah, it's a really good
- 37:13Speaker 4: Christmas gift.
- 37:14Speaker 7: Wow.
- 37:14Speaker 5: Listening to the lineup this morning, and my kids are like.
- 37:17Speaker 3: Yeah, Sombra.
- 37:19Speaker 5: Yeah, Stella Lefty. And then they're like, who's Hilary Duff?
- 37:25Speaker 2: Who's Nickelback?
- 37:27Speaker 3: And that's when I was screaming with excitement. I guess,
- 37:30Speaker 3: I don't know. Is that like a bad mom moment?
- 37:33Speaker 3: You don't know who Hilary Duff is?
- 37:34Speaker 5: I have two children, two girls.
- 37:36Speaker 9: All right, well, I guess we'll be watching Lizzie McGuire later.
- 37:40Speaker 1: Great day.
- 37:42Speaker 3: But that's the other magic of Jingle Ball, right? Something
- 37:44Speaker 3: for everyone.
- 37:45Speaker 4: Yes. Yeah, absolutely. Well, keep the talkbacks coming on what
- 37:50Speaker 4: you think of the lineup. Do you love it? I
- 37:52Speaker 4: think everyone does. Oh, yeah. The city is pumped. Yeah,
- 37:55Speaker 4: hit the talkbacks on that. Sunday, December 13th.
- 38:00Speaker 11: Jingle Ball, presented by Capital One, starring Sombra, Hilary Duff, Nickelback,
- 38:05Speaker 11: Stella Lefty, and so many more.
- 38:07Speaker 1: That's going to do it for the best of Billy
- 38:09Speaker 1: and Lisa in the morning.
- 38:10Speaker 2: Everybody stay safe out there throughout this weather we're having
- 38:14Speaker 2: this weekend.
- 38:15Speaker 1: Kiss On Away will always keep you company, keep us on,
- 38:18Speaker 1: even if.
- 38:19Speaker 2: You're not out there driving. The Countdown with Billy and
- 38:22Speaker 2: Justin is up next.
