- 0:11Speaker 1: counting down the top five moments of the week with you.
- 0:14Speaker 1: So let's get right into number five. Because we were
- 0:16Speaker 1: talking about lies that your parents have told you. We
- 0:21Speaker 1: turned this into a topic time and Lisa kicked us
- 0:24Speaker 1: off with one that she remembered about Billy. Lisa, what
- 0:27Speaker 1: was it you used to come in and say.
- 0:29Speaker 2: That you would tell your children when they were at
- 0:32Speaker 2: the circus with you that during intermission that the show
- 0:36Speaker 2: was over.
- 0:36Speaker 3: Oh yes, I remember this, now come on, it's over.
- 0:42Speaker 4: Yeah, you have no idea.
- 0:43Speaker 5: I use this everything from Disney on ice to the
- 0:47Speaker 5: rodeo to the circus, any of those events. When intermission
- 0:52Speaker 5: came and the lights went on, I would say, come on,
- 0:55Speaker 5: we gotta go.
- 0:55Speaker 4: We get to beat the crowd. And I said, we
- 0:57Speaker 4: can grab a souvenir before they run out.
- 1:00Speaker 5: On the way out, you know, I'd definitely take them
- 1:02Speaker 5: in the store, grabbed the souvenir, said come on, we'll
- 1:04Speaker 5: never get out of the parking lot.
- 1:05Speaker 4: We get it hurt they never knew. Yeah, never knew,
- 1:08Speaker 4: never knew that it was only half.
- 1:09Speaker 6: There was there was a second half.
- 1:11Speaker 4: That's a good one.
- 1:12Speaker 3: I think one of the first events that I took
- 1:14Speaker 3: my son to when he was probably two or three,
- 1:16Speaker 3: was I think Disney on Ice. Yeah, and you told
- 1:18Speaker 3: me that before we went. He has a hot tip.
- 1:20Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:21Speaker 4: Yeah, because nothing's going to change in the second half.
- 1:24Speaker 8: It's just more people skating around and animals skating around.
- 1:29Speaker 3: That's true. Oh God, so many lives.
- 1:31Speaker 4: The circus stays the same second half.
- 1:33Speaker 3: I saw reel over the weekend and it was all
- 1:35Speaker 3: the lies your parents told you, and I checked every
- 1:38Speaker 3: single box. I believed all these were true.
- 1:41Speaker 9: My parents, when we were young used to tell us
- 1:44Speaker 9: when they were eating lobsters that they were eating bugs,
- 1:47Speaker 9: so we wouldn't want them.
- 1:50Speaker 6: Wow, that's creative.
- 1:51Speaker 3: Well, aren't they kind of like bugs crustaceans? V see Yeah? Yeah, No,
- 1:59Speaker 3: they're not.
- 1:59Speaker 4: The bugs of the sea.
- 2:00Speaker 6: Yeah, but I know what you're saying.
- 2:02Speaker 3: No, they used to be a long time ago. They were.
- 2:04Speaker 3: They were. They weren't a delicacy. They were given to
- 2:08Speaker 3: pole in prison.
- 2:09Speaker 4: Yeah, prison, and then the galleys rowing the ships. Yes,
- 2:13Speaker 4: you know, the slaves. For lack of a better word,
- 2:15Speaker 4: they would give them lobster, and the lobster.
- 2:18Speaker 6: Became they're scavengers basically.
- 2:19Speaker 4: What it is now. Yeah, they are scavengers. Just keep
- 2:22Speaker 4: in mind when you're having the lobster. Everything they eat
- 2:26Speaker 4: is off the is off the bottom. Yes, they're bottom feeder.
- 2:29Speaker 10: They are.
- 2:30Speaker 4: They are right expense, it's odd when you think of it.
- 2:33Speaker 4: Expensive body, oh my, and they keep getting more and
- 2:35Speaker 4: more expensive.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:37Speaker 11: My mom always said that if you had the shower
- 2:39Speaker 11: on while it was thundering and lightning out, that you
- 2:42Speaker 11: would get struck by lightning. So I still, at twenty
- 2:46Speaker 11: eight years old, will not take a shower if there's
- 2:48Speaker 11: a storm.
- 2:50Speaker 4: Oh my god. My parents used to tell me that.
- 2:52Speaker 3: I never heard that one. Yeah, and the pool was
- 2:54Speaker 3: a big one using water, right, well, yeah, wasting the water.
- 3:00Speaker 4: What are you doing in Yeah, you guys remember that.
- 3:03Speaker 12: When we were younger, they would say if you had
- 3:06Speaker 12: a dream and you died in your dream, that you
- 3:08Speaker 12: would die in real life.
- 3:10Speaker 3: I think I remember that, but I think it was
- 3:12Speaker 3: other kids that told me that, not my parents.
- 3:14Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 3:14Speaker 3: That's a little morbid for your parents to tell you,
- 3:17Speaker 3: you know, But one of them was about coffee, that
- 3:19Speaker 3: if you drink coffee as a kid, it will stunt
- 3:21Speaker 3: your growth.
- 3:22Speaker 14: As a parent, I still use the coffee will stunt
- 3:24Speaker 14: your growth. My ddler's always trying to take a sip
- 3:27Speaker 14: my coffee, and I told him he'd shrink down like
- 3:29Speaker 14: ant man if he takes a sip in my coffee,
- 3:31Speaker 14: and he still believes it.
- 3:35Speaker 3: It's so crazy, like we teach our kids not to lie,
- 3:38Speaker 3: but then we kind of tell them lies.
- 3:40Speaker 4: And there are so many more.
- 3:42Speaker 8: I'm racking my brain that my parents would tell me
- 3:45Speaker 8: a lot of them related to school or I mean,
- 3:47Speaker 8: there are so many.
- 3:48Speaker 3: Well, you just want your kids to listen and do
- 3:50Speaker 3: what do what you tell them to do, and when
- 3:52Speaker 3: they won't, you got to you gotta do what you
- 3:54Speaker 3: gotta do. Let's go to Selene online too?
- 3:56Speaker 4: All right, Selene, you're online too.
- 3:58Speaker 3: Good morning.
- 3:59Speaker 4: Add to the list. Selene Yellow was Selene?
- 4:05Speaker 3: All right? Selene dropped off like that name.
- 4:07Speaker 4: It's a good name, a nice name.
- 4:09Speaker 3: You don't meet a lot of Selene's, you know, Yeah, Selene,
- 4:12Speaker 3: we'll try to get you on the second. Sorry about that.
- 4:14Speaker 13: So I love dogs, my dad doesn't, and a big lie.
- 4:18Speaker 9: He would tell me when I was a kid, is
- 4:20Speaker 9: dead while I pet a dog.
- 4:22Speaker 3: If I get the eye booger of a dog and
- 4:25Speaker 3: then rub it, then.
- 4:27Speaker 15: Rub my eyes, I would see black and white forever,
- 4:32Speaker 15: or I would get like blind.
- 4:34Speaker 4: So that's a big lie.
- 4:36Speaker 3: See now we're just just completely making stuff up here.
- 4:39Speaker 4: I've never heard anything even resembling that.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Never heard that. There was one of the lists about
- 4:45Speaker 3: sneezing with your eyes open, and I kind of was speculating,
- 4:48Speaker 3: I don't think you can sneeze with your eyes open.
- 4:50Speaker 12: I actually learned this in the college class ones.
- 4:52Speaker 14: You physically can't sneeze with your eyes open because it's
- 4:55Speaker 14: a reflex that your eyes automatically close.
- 4:58Speaker 6: Yeah, I believe that.
- 5:00Speaker 9: Well.
- 5:00Speaker 8: I always was told that your heart skips a beat
- 5:02Speaker 8: when you sneeze, and I have sneezing jags in the morning,
- 5:06Speaker 8: so you know.
- 5:07Speaker 6: My heart skips a beat just regularly. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 5:11Speaker 6: I have like an rhythm.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Wasn't there a song my heart skips? There is?
- 5:15Speaker 3: I think I have the same thing, but there's a
- 5:17Speaker 3: name for it.
- 5:18Speaker 4: Really.
- 5:19Speaker 3: Yeah, Because I had an e KG, they thought something
- 5:21Speaker 3: was wrong and they said it was that and said
- 5:23Speaker 3: it's no big deal.
- 5:24Speaker 6: It's not Yeah, it's fine.
- 5:27Speaker 3: What pill.
- 5:28Speaker 4: No, wasn't there something about warts? Frogs? Yeah, they came
- 5:32Speaker 4: from frogs.
- 5:33Speaker 3: Yeah, frogs.
- 5:34Speaker 9: I used to have actually a reoccurring nightmare about swallowing
- 5:38Speaker 9: a watermelon sleeed and being brushed into the hospital because
- 5:41Speaker 9: my stomach was going to explode from the watermelon grow
- 5:44Speaker 9: in my stomach.
- 5:48Speaker 3: I'm telling you, I was full of fear as a
- 5:49Speaker 3: kid when I heard these things.
- 5:50Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 5:51Speaker 6: Mine was swallowing gum, like, never swallow gum.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Yeah that it was really bad for you. It just sits,
- 5:55Speaker 3: and the more that you you swallowed.
- 5:58Speaker 8: The moll would pile up and found proof to the contrary,
- 6:01Speaker 8: right with the gum swallowing.
- 6:02Speaker 3: It's a few days. It's a few days that sits
- 6:04Speaker 3: in your stomach and then it passes through.
- 6:06Speaker 12: Good morning, crew. This is not one that was told
- 6:11Speaker 12: to me, but something that I used to tell my kids.
- 6:13Speaker 12: I would tell them when we were at the beach
- 6:15Speaker 12: if they found a sand dollar and we put it
- 6:17Speaker 12: on the dashboard of the car, it would turned into
- 6:19Speaker 12: a real dollar. Kept them busy forever, and it only
- 6:22Speaker 12: cost me a few bucks. Have a good day.
- 6:25Speaker 6: Oh my god, I love that walking the beach.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Let's go to Selene. I think she's back online.
- 6:33Speaker 8: Hey Selene, Hi, good morning, Hey we got you give
- 6:37Speaker 8: us a good one.

- 6:59Speaker 4: It's in the hosp're getting a worm removed.
- 7:03Speaker 15: I remember when we wouldn't finish all the food on
- 7:05Speaker 15: our plate at a time, our parents would always say,
- 7:08Speaker 15: you have to eat all of your food. There's children
- 7:11Speaker 15: starving in Africa. And thinking about it today, I'm like, well,
- 7:14Speaker 15: what was you supposed to do? Send them what we
- 7:16Speaker 15: didn't finish?
- 7:19Speaker 2: I still okay, my parents say, that's that's me my kids. Yeah, well,
- 7:24Speaker 2: it's about wasting food, it's having right, that was sort
- 7:28Speaker 2: of the moral of.
- 7:29Speaker 8: But they wanted to guilt you. Right, young children are
- 7:32Speaker 8: starving in Africa. Ye, you got to eat those carrots.
- 7:35Speaker 3: Yeah. Meanwhile, you know, unfortunately there's starving kids everywhere. Yeah, exactly, Really,
- 7:40Speaker 3: it's about food wasting.

- 7:43Speaker 13: directly from the can, like canned soup or canned beans.
- 7:47Speaker 17: That you would get lockjaw and not be able to.
- 7:50Speaker 3: Open your mouth.
- 7:52Speaker 6: That's a new one.

- 10:00Speaker 3: so obviously it sounds like it's fake. It's actually a
- 10:03Speaker 3: real thing. You can go to the Airhead's website and
- 10:05Speaker 3: enter to win this decoy boy thing.
- 10:07Speaker 2: I have to tell you go to their instagram and
- 10:09Speaker 2: check it out because it looks so creepy, but it
- 10:12Speaker 2: does look real.
- 10:13Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. And by the way, like you know, we
- 10:16Speaker 3: do trick or treating every year. We spend some of
- 10:18Speaker 3: the time at the house, and there's always older people
- 10:20Speaker 3: that come, yeah candy by themselves. Yeah, like they're dressed up,
- 10:24Speaker 3: but they're clearly like nineteen or twenty.
- 10:26Speaker 6: Yeah, they older kids.
- 10:27Speaker 3: What is the year that you stopped trick or treating?
- 10:29Speaker 6: Okay, so that depends on the kid.
- 10:31Speaker 2: But it's usually eighth grade, you know, like fourteen, thirteen, fourteen,
- 10:37Speaker 2: they're sage out of it.
- 10:38Speaker 18: Yeah, I think I remember, like, yeah, probably that around
- 10:41Speaker 18: that time or like freshman year in high school of
- 10:43Speaker 18: framing him. But like you started doing it for like fun,
- 10:46Speaker 18: because you and your friends, like you're excuse, get out
- 10:48Speaker 18: of the house and walk around the house and I
- 10:50Speaker 18: mean walk on the neighborhood with all.
- 10:51Speaker 6: Your friends exactly.
- 10:52Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I can't remember. Well, there was an incident
- 10:56Speaker 3: when I was younger with trick or treating. I had
- 10:58Speaker 3: an older cousin that was like probably four or five
- 11:01Speaker 3: years older, and you know, he was into some trouble.
- 11:03Speaker 3: I wasn't there yet, and I had Adjason Friday the
- 11:06Speaker 3: thirteenth mask my mom bought me and with fake blood,
- 11:09Speaker 3: and she asked me to go upstairs because my cousin
- 11:11Speaker 3: lived upstairs, and have him put the blood on. So
- 11:14Speaker 3: I went upstairs and he did, and then I went
- 11:16Speaker 3: out tri or treating. And so I was probably about
- 11:18Speaker 3: like nine or ten years old, and I remember all
- 11:21Speaker 3: night I was going up to doors and they were
- 11:22Speaker 3: looking at me weird, the people, and I didn't know why.
- 11:25Speaker 3: And so I get home and I walk in the house.
- 11:27Speaker 3: My mom looks at my mask and she's like, what
- 11:30Speaker 3: is on there? Now? I can't say on the radio
- 11:33Speaker 3: what he drew on the forehead of the mask, but
- 11:36Speaker 3: the most offensive thing in the entire world. And there
- 11:39Speaker 3: I was trick or treating, Like, yeah, it was traumatized me.
- 11:43Speaker 3: So I never dressed up again after that.
- 11:46Speaker 18: Why do I see justin being one that like steals
- 11:48Speaker 18: all the kids candy back in the day.
- 11:50Speaker 3: Uh, Now, you know I did the whole like toilet
- 11:52Speaker 3: paper thing. Yeah, you know you toilet paper, like the
- 11:55Speaker 3: tree in front of people's houses. I did that stuff.
- 11:57Speaker 18: Is it weird that when I see that now, if
- 11:58Speaker 18: I do see it, I'm like, oh, I'm happy that
- 12:00Speaker 18: kids are still doing something like that.
- 12:01Speaker 3: I mean, it's better than being in their house on
- 12:03Speaker 3: their phones. Yeah, I'm just saying so, Yeah, it's on
- 12:08Speaker 3: a Friday this year, Halloween.
- 12:10Speaker 6: Yeah, that's good. This is a good This is going
- 12:11Speaker 6: to be a really good weekend.
- 12:12Speaker 3: Which is really good for the kids. Now, list, I
- 12:15Speaker 3: know you live kind of on the main street, do you.
- 12:17Speaker 6: Yeah, we never get trigger treaters.
- 12:19Speaker 2: Like our first year when we moved in, I had
- 12:21Speaker 2: all this candy and yeah, our driveways long and we're
- 12:24Speaker 2: on the other side of the street, so the sidewalk
- 12:26Speaker 2: is on the other is on the opposite side. So yeah,
- 12:29Speaker 2: so we like never get anyone.
- 12:30Speaker 18: I actually am the perfect spot of dead end called
- 12:33Speaker 18: the sack. But we also don't. And after you think
- 12:35Speaker 18: about this other day, is it simply because families aren't
- 12:38Speaker 18: having as many kids.
- 12:40Speaker 2: I think it's I think they go to neighborhoods now
- 12:42Speaker 2: where they can get the most bang for their buck.
- 12:45Speaker 6: It's just that's what you do.
- 12:46Speaker 2: So we like always go to like this other neighborhood
- 12:49Speaker 2: and it's like super easy to walk around.
- 12:51Speaker 6: They can hit like two hundred houses.
- 12:53Speaker 18: So what you're saying if you don't think that they
- 12:54Speaker 18: think that I'm going to give away the good.
- 12:56Speaker 6: Candy, I don't know.
- 12:57Speaker 2: I mean bu side bars.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Like upgrade, you should be given out full candy. Yeah,
- 13:02Speaker 3: any upgrade you've made it to.
- 13:04Speaker 6: A point exactly.
- 13:06Speaker 3: That's another argument. Another debate too, is dropping the kids
- 13:09Speaker 3: off at different neighborhoods. Yeah, better neighborhood. They do it
- 13:12Speaker 3: in my neighborhood in say New Hampshire they drop the
- 13:14Speaker 3: kids off, which I'm fine with. Your neighborhood is a
- 13:16Speaker 3: winning it's a winning neighborhood for sure. But I see
- 13:19Speaker 3: people I've never seen in my life.
- 13:20Speaker 2: Well, we usually go to a neighborhood where we have friends,
- 13:22Speaker 2: so it's not like it's like good neighborhood we've never
- 13:24Speaker 2: been to.
- 13:25Speaker 6: But yeah, yeah it happens.
- 13:27Speaker 3: Well, I'm looking forward to Halloween. I had you go
- 13:29Speaker 3: in to Mikey's house for Halloween trick or treating? What's
- 13:31Speaker 3: going on in that house? Come on, come on, Hey,
- 13:35Speaker 3: I got a hot tub?
- 13:38Speaker 1: So what Billy Costa was in Africa? This week, we
- 13:41Speaker 1: made our good friend Mikey V from the v Bros
- 13:44Speaker 1: get up super early and hang out with us. It's
- 13:47Speaker 1: producer Riley. I'm counting down the top five moments of
- 13:50Speaker 1: the week with you. So yeah, Mikey sat in with
- 13:53Speaker 1: us and he would tell us stories off air that
- 13:56Speaker 1: just really had us thinking. He was telling us about
- 13:59Speaker 1: the weird job he had as a kid, and we thought,
- 14:02Speaker 1: you know what, that would make a great topic time.
- 14:05Speaker 1: It's number three.
- 14:06Speaker 3: The thing is with Mikey is you know he's multifaceted, right,
- 14:09Speaker 3: He's obviously on the radio, he DJs, he does real
- 14:13Speaker 3: estate on the side, like he does all so many
- 14:15Speaker 3: different things. Very successful guy, right. I actually look up
- 14:17Speaker 3: to Mikey in a lot of ways to Shoul, but
- 14:20Speaker 3: he's kind of had a weird background of jobs. And
- 14:23Speaker 3: so you were telling me you've had several weird jobs
- 14:27Speaker 3: if you were younger. You want to highlight a couple
- 14:29Speaker 3: of those forms.
- 14:30Speaker 18: I think it goes back that I do anything that
- 14:31Speaker 18: made money at one point. And you never believe this,
- 14:35Speaker 18: you know what a my gym is? Yes, like like gymnastics,
- 14:38Speaker 18: the little kids just one of Root nine in framing him.
- 14:41Speaker 18: Where I grew up, I was a my gym teacher.
- 14:43Speaker 18: So if you had like your eight year old birthday
- 14:45Speaker 18: party and they kids do a little fake backflip around
- 14:48Speaker 18: triangle foam, I'm like the teacher that's.
- 14:50Speaker 3: Like, all right, Ben, you're back, And did that happen?
- 14:53Speaker 18: I think I randomly met the owner of my gym
- 14:56Speaker 18: when I was young, and she's like, oh, do you
- 14:58Speaker 18: want a job. I'm like, I'll think of job. And
- 15:00Speaker 18: then I started going there and I started working there.
- 15:03Speaker 18: I started helping out of kids. But I remember I
- 15:04Speaker 18: went to college to be a teacher, so I've always
- 15:06Speaker 18: liked being around kid. I went to Stonehill College, all right,
- 15:09Speaker 18: and I studied math education, so like I always at
- 15:12Speaker 18: that point, and I probably thought I was gonna be
- 15:13Speaker 18: a teacher, and I love that job.
- 15:15Speaker 3: But I'm humorous ones.
- 15:16Speaker 6: And weren't you like a football player too?
- 15:18Speaker 3: I played football in high school.
- 15:20Speaker 6: She had like the athletic part of it.
- 15:21Speaker 3: Way a minute, hold on, hold on, hold on. So
- 15:24Speaker 3: your goal was to be a teacher, not work on
- 15:26Speaker 3: the radio. Yes, I've did that before. So I went
- 15:28Speaker 3: to college.
- 15:28Speaker 18: I went to Stonehill College studied mathematics and secondary education,
- 15:32Speaker 18: and I would want to be a math teacher, and
- 15:34Speaker 18: like my dream was like a math teacher and then
- 15:37Speaker 18: maybe DJ to proms or like DJ like.
- 15:39Speaker 3: The after school events, and then it kind of snowball
- 15:42Speaker 3: a little. So you've always kind of been into the
- 15:43Speaker 3: music and the DJing always been since I was like
- 15:46Speaker 3: sixteen years old. Fifteen years old, I was d Daniel.
- 15:48Speaker 3: So my daughter is in gymnastics, she's almost she's three
- 15:51Speaker 3: and a half. So you're telling me that you were
- 15:53Speaker 3: one of the people at the gym. I was helping
- 15:56Speaker 3: her do.
- 15:56Speaker 18: Like the little tumbling pole vaulting and could you imagine
- 16:00Speaker 18: Jemma had mikey Via as a gymnastics teacher back in
- 16:03Speaker 18: the day.
- 16:03Speaker 3: That's crazy. Are you good at math? I'm very good
- 16:06Speaker 3: at math, I mean really that's my I'm not good
- 16:08Speaker 3: at reading and writing. Put to the test least.
- 16:11Speaker 21: It was a little early pimping for three girls. Price
- 16:14Speaker 21: is sixty five dollars for each trick? How many tricks
- 16:17Speaker 21: will each girl have to turn so Dwayne can pay
- 16:20Speaker 21: for his eight hundred dollars per day?
- 16:24Speaker 18: I don't want to that you want to that was
- 16:29Speaker 18: calculus class.
- 16:30Speaker 3: You also were a teacher too, Yeah, well I taught
- 16:33Speaker 3: Hebrew school.
- 16:34Speaker 18: I guess both those have to go around teaching, which
- 16:36Speaker 18: I originally wanted to do, and teachers like change the world.
- 16:39Speaker 4: But my mom uh still is.
- 16:41Speaker 3: A Hebrew sco teacher and a special led preschool teacher.
- 16:44Speaker 18: But when I was younger, she was a hebrewsk teacher
- 16:48Speaker 18: at Pinetaura and Sudbury. So I was like her assistant
- 16:51Speaker 18: Hebrew school teacher. So that's what I did, like even
- 16:53Speaker 18: like at the end of high school and like throughout
- 16:56Speaker 18: high school did that. And then she's also a severely
- 16:59Speaker 18: special ed teach, so she would I would assist her
- 17:01Speaker 18: in the summers when I was in.
- 17:02Speaker 3: College as an assistant teacher there too, interesting story, Yeah
- 17:06Speaker 3: at least all right, I've.
- 17:07Speaker 2: Had some weird ones. So I cleaned condos in the Poconos. Yeah,
- 17:12Speaker 2: when I was pots Yeah crazy. Oh no, it was
- 17:17Speaker 2: the most disgusting job of all time. Like the way
- 17:20Speaker 2: people leave hotel rooms and condos is just like next
- 17:23Speaker 2: level the bathroom, just like exploding baby powder everywhere and
- 17:28Speaker 2: just really nasty stuff.
- 17:30Speaker 6: So I have to say that was my worst job.
- 17:32Speaker 2: I've also been a lifeguard at a resort pool in
- 17:34Speaker 2: the Poconos, and I made muffins at a place in
- 17:39Speaker 2: Wellesley when I was in college.
- 17:41Speaker 6: It was a summer job.
- 17:42Speaker 2: I had to get up at five o'clock in the
- 17:43Speaker 2: morning and go in and make the muffins.
- 17:45Speaker 3: Those are three very different jobs. A lifeguard, a cleaner,
- 17:48Speaker 3: and a muffin.
- 17:48Speaker 2: I agreed, Yeah, I ended up like I ended up
- 17:52Speaker 2: while I turned twenty one and I didn't show up
- 17:54Speaker 2: one day and then he fired me.
- 17:55Speaker 6: I didn't make the muffin.
- 17:56Speaker 4: Daff muffin guy.
- 17:58Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because it was like my twenty first birthday
- 18:01Speaker 2: and I went out with all my friends and I
- 18:02Speaker 2: forgot to tell them, and then I overslept and then
- 18:05Speaker 2: so there were no muffins.
- 18:06Speaker 3: The town was an outbreak for breakfast. There's nothing like
- 18:09Speaker 3: a blueberry muffin.
- 18:11Speaker 2: I have to tell you though, because I I had
- 18:12Speaker 2: like the big mixers and stuff like that, and I
- 18:15Speaker 2: was making like morning glory muffins and all this stuff,
- 18:18Speaker 2: and just, oh.
- 18:19Speaker 4: Yeah, you were ever a disaster.
- 18:21Speaker 2: You were known because one thing I'm known for, it's
- 18:25Speaker 2: my muffin.
- 18:27Speaker 3: I had a weird first job. So it's actually kind
- 18:30Speaker 3: of ironic because my first job I was basically a snitch,
- 18:35Speaker 3: which you know, if you know my story, I kind
- 18:37Speaker 3: of went down a darker road where that's obviously, you know,
- 18:40Speaker 3: not what you're supposed to do. Yeah. When I was
- 18:42Speaker 3: twelve years old, I looked older than I was, and
- 18:46Speaker 3: there was a family friend who worked for the health
- 18:48Speaker 3: department in a local city, and she asked my mom
- 18:52Speaker 3: if I would help out on the weekend. And basically
- 18:54Speaker 3: what she would do is drive me around to these
- 18:57Speaker 3: different stores in this city and me into the convenience
- 19:00Speaker 3: store and try to buy cigarettes. Oh oh because eighteen. Yes,
- 19:05Speaker 3: when I was older, I looked kind of like sixteen
- 19:08Speaker 3: maybe seventeen. So I would go in and I would say,
- 19:11Speaker 3: and I get to pack them al boroughs. And most
- 19:13Speaker 3: times they would say, let me see ID, but sometimes
- 19:15Speaker 3: they would sell them. And so then I'd walk out
- 19:17Speaker 3: with the cigarettes and hand them to this woman and
- 19:19Speaker 3: then she would go right in and write them a
- 19:21Speaker 3: little a citation and find them. So what if they say,
- 19:24Speaker 3: give me an idea? What are you're saying, Oh, I
- 19:25Speaker 3: forgot it? Yeah, I would say I I don't have one,
- 19:27Speaker 3: and I would walk out. I'd say, oh, sorry, I
- 19:28Speaker 3: don't have it and walk out.
- 19:29Speaker 18: And then at that point in your life, did you
- 19:30Speaker 18: get it like excited when you like got them, when
- 19:34Speaker 18: they like let you buy a cigarettes and you're like, oh,
- 19:36Speaker 18: I got another one?
- 19:37Speaker 3: How do you feel guilty?
- 19:38Speaker 6: So it was like you were working undercover, I guess, so.
- 19:41Speaker 3: Yeah, And then you know, soon after that, I turned
- 19:42Speaker 3: to a life of crime and I left that part
- 19:44Speaker 3: out though I didn't let people know that part about me.
- 19:46Speaker 3: But I didn't know. I wanted the money. She paid
- 19:48Speaker 3: me fifty bucks. That's a lot for a twelve year old. Yeah,
- 19:50Speaker 3: I paid fifty dollars a day even if you caught her.
- 19:53Speaker 3: Didn't catch them, yeah, so most times they wouldn't. But
- 19:56Speaker 3: then some stores they would sell them to me, which,
- 19:58Speaker 3: you know, shame on them, Yeah, shame on them. So wow,
- 20:02Speaker 3: that's crazy. Yeah, we all start somewhere and we didn't
- 20:04Speaker 3: just come in and you know, start working on radio.
- 20:07Speaker 18: Was at least I was in a snitch though, no
- 20:09Speaker 18: snitches that snitches get snitches get stitches, rats get bats.
- 20:13Speaker 13: Hey.
- 20:13Speaker 3: That's when I own it, all right, That's the only
- 20:15Speaker 3: time I didn't know any better. I just wanted the
- 20:17Speaker 3: fifty bucks.
- 20:18Speaker 1: Guess what wait, this is the top five moments of
- 20:20Speaker 1: the week. It's producer Riley and I am cutting them

- 22:16Speaker 6: How did you get hooked up with them?
- 22:19Speaker 10: I used to work in the hotel industry, and I
- 22:23Speaker 10: worked a lot with the entertainment industry, and I just
- 22:27Speaker 10: I somehow got caught up in.
- 22:30Speaker 20: A lot of that stuff.
- 22:31Speaker 10: So I have a lot of a lot of good stories.
- 22:34Speaker 10: I got to watch the show. I got to watch
- 22:36Speaker 10: the show from from the stage that night, which was
- 22:40Speaker 10: totally the safest place in the venue.
- 22:43Speaker 3: Oh yeah, because of the mash pits at the show, right,
- 22:45Speaker 3: people running around smashing each other. Oh yeah, that's crazy.
- 22:49Speaker 3: Oh good one, Amy, Thank you so much for the call.

- 22:55Speaker 3: have really not going the mash pit, but it was.
- 22:58Speaker 4: It was pretty wild, was really ambitious.
- 23:01Speaker 7: When I was a teen, I took on a random
- 23:03Speaker 7: job from Craigslist once where I ended up in a
- 23:06Speaker 7: car with this guy going to upstate New York to
- 23:09Speaker 7: actually replace computers at a school. I never went back,
- 23:13Speaker 7: but I definitely learned a good life lesson that time.
- 23:20Speaker 3: Well, this segment is good because there likely are people
- 23:23Speaker 3: listening that are in a job like they don't want
- 23:25Speaker 3: to be in true you know, maybe they're just starting
- 23:27Speaker 3: out and they have dreams or maybe doing something different,
- 23:30Speaker 3: and this is like a lesson that you can do it.
- 23:32Speaker 3: Another auto one that I had too remember, Circuit cities. Yeah, yeah,
- 23:36Speaker 3: there was one right up the street here. Just oh yeah,
- 23:39Speaker 3: is that a best fine? I know exactly where it is,
- 23:42Speaker 3: but a text to the home depot.
- 23:44Speaker 18: But growing up, there's one of native I think it
- 23:46Speaker 18: was a Route nine And I used to installed car audio,
- 23:50Speaker 18: so like I remember that if you became like popped
- 23:52Speaker 18: in out your radio or watched new speakers in your car,
- 23:54Speaker 18: like remote car starters or like subwarfers. Like I was
- 23:57Speaker 18: a guy in the bay in the back that was
- 23:59Speaker 18: installed car audio. And I still remember on my very
- 24:01Speaker 18: like or one of my first days. I was young,
- 24:03Speaker 18: I probably sixteen seventies. I was kind of learning and
- 24:05Speaker 18: going at the same time, but I always knew a
- 24:07Speaker 18: little bit about electrical work. At one point, my boss,
- 24:11Speaker 18: he was like a younger guy at that point too.
- 24:12Speaker 18: He was like, Hey, go in the back, we need
- 24:14Speaker 18: a flex capacitor. And I didn't want to say I
- 24:16Speaker 18: didn't know what a fuck capacitor was. So I'm on
- 24:18Speaker 18: the back looking everywhere for a fuck capassador. I can't
- 24:20Speaker 18: find that. I can't find it. Obviously that from Back
- 24:23Speaker 18: to the Future. It's a fake thing. But hour I
- 24:27Speaker 18: spent the hour, because you know, you don't want to
- 24:28Speaker 18: meet yours when you're young, You're like that right, I'm like, oh,
- 24:31Speaker 18: I should probably know what a fox. I'm like, and
- 24:34Speaker 18: you know, like I can't google it. I'm just like
- 24:35Speaker 18: looking through every little speaker. I'm like, what what the
- 24:38Speaker 18: fux capacitor?
- 24:40Speaker 3: God? That reminds me. I used to work at Friendlies
- 24:42Speaker 3: as a as a line cook, and we used to
- 24:44Speaker 3: mess with new employees on the course day. Yeah, and
- 24:47Speaker 3: we'd send them back to get the sprinkle maker, so
- 24:50Speaker 3: they'd be down there looking in the back room for
- 24:52Speaker 3: Then they come back and I can't find the sprinkle
- 24:54Speaker 3: circuit City. It's funny. You used to used to install
- 24:57Speaker 3: car stereos and I used to steal them. Let's go,
- 25:01Speaker 3: let's go to Carry online one. She's in town. Good

- 25:18Speaker 16: other assistant living facilities to try to get like the
- 25:20Speaker 16: dirt on what they were doing.

- 25:26Speaker 6: Yeh, who would hire you for that?
- 25:29Speaker 10: I found it on Craigslist.

- 25:35Speaker 10: And I was like, all right, I love to shop.
- 25:38Speaker 16: And then when I get into it, it was yeah,
- 25:41Speaker 16: you'd go in and I had to record them, and
- 25:44Speaker 16: you know, they'd walk around and tour you in the
- 25:47Speaker 16: facility and you'd have to kind of you know, like
- 25:49Speaker 16: take notes and you know, and and then get back
- 25:52Speaker 16: to them on you know, just how the facility looked, cleanliness,

- 29:33Speaker 13: and I will, But can we talk about what happened
- 29:35Speaker 13: with the Taylor thing over the weekend? How to go?

- 29:50Speaker 3: The mayor of the South End was there, Billy, Yeah,
- 29:54Speaker 3: the mayor of the South End showed up.
- 29:56Speaker 13: I have to know. I heard a rumor that one
- 30:00Speaker 13: of the songs in the Taylor album talks about Travis's manhood.
- 30:06Speaker 13: Is that true?
- 30:06Speaker 6: It does?
- 30:07Speaker 2: It's my and you know, Billy, it's my favorite song
- 30:09Speaker 2: on the album.
- 30:11Speaker 13: Of course it is.
- 30:12Speaker 3: Yeah, it's called Wood and it definitely is.
- 30:14Speaker 6: It's so like Dancy and Fine. I love it.
- 30:18Speaker 13: So it's Travis now the new Bde Billy.
- 30:22Speaker 3: His birthday was yesterday and his social media was flooded
- 30:26Speaker 3: with comments from women just gushing over the song and
- 30:30Speaker 3: there are.
- 30:30Speaker 6: So many memes about it over the weekend.
- 30:33Speaker 13: Well that's why we call it Bde. Yeah. So I
- 30:37Speaker 13: get to tell you this journey is really remarkable. You
- 30:39Speaker 13: have to understand. We flew from Boston to London, and
- 30:43Speaker 13: then London to Johannesburg, and then from Johannesburg to Harare,
- 30:47Speaker 13: which by the way, is not only the capital of Zimbabwe,
- 30:52Speaker 13: but it's also Do you remember several weeks ago we
- 30:54Speaker 13: talked about that horrific fire at an elephant sanctuary in Africa. Yes,
- 31:01Speaker 13: well we went to the actual place and spent a
- 31:04Speaker 13: lot of time there and uh and they were shouting
- 31:07Speaker 13: out our listeners for their donations because they told me
- 31:10Speaker 13: our donations from our listeners really helped to provide the
- 31:14Speaker 13: food that will probably likely get them through the drought
- 31:17Speaker 13: in Africa.
- 31:21Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we had her on Roxy right.
- 31:24Speaker 13: Yeah. Roxy is such a special lady. What an incredible story.
- 31:27Speaker 13: But I have to tell you, so we were there
- 31:29Speaker 13: at the headquarters. So we're meeting all of these I
- 31:32Speaker 13: basically had a two night sleepover with elephants, really up
- 31:41Speaker 13: in the morning with them. We had breakfast together, we
- 31:44Speaker 13: had lunch together, we put them to bed. Uh, it
- 31:48Speaker 13: really is an experience.
- 31:50Speaker 3: Now, Mikey, Mikey, this is this is Billy Costa we're
- 31:53Speaker 3: talking about. I know you grew up in Boston listening
- 31:55Speaker 3: to this radio station. This is Billy Costa talking.
- 31:59Speaker 13: Yeah, they weren't expected of me, would you telling you
- 32:03Speaker 13: it is insane? Well, you know what, We've talked a
- 32:05Speaker 13: lot about the expedition we come here with, and that's
- 32:08Speaker 13: Danaw and Emma, who have atleas expeditions. They're the reason
- 32:12Speaker 13: we're here. I've got Danew sitting next to me. So
- 32:14Speaker 13: then now the headquarters at harare as well as the
- 32:17Speaker 13: one here in Victoria. Are we in Victoria Falls, We
- 32:22Speaker 13: are very close to Victoria Falls.
- 32:24Speaker 20: We're in a place called Pandamasui Forest Reserve and this
- 32:27Speaker 20: is the release site for Zimbabwe Elephant verseree wild is Life.
- 32:31Speaker 20: It is where they release the elephants part of their rescue,
- 32:35Speaker 20: rehabilitation and release program, getting these elephants back into the
- 32:38Speaker 20: wild where they belong.
- 32:39Speaker 13: Yeah, and you guys, you really have to live it
- 32:41Speaker 13: and experience it to believe it. It's like you see
- 32:43Speaker 13: the baby elephants, some of whom were abandoned in the wild,
- 32:46Speaker 13: not by their mom or whatever. Their mom may have
- 32:49Speaker 13: been taken or injured or approached, and they don't have
- 32:52Speaker 13: anywhere to go, and they haven't even learned yet on
- 32:54Speaker 13: to survive in the wild. So when you're here, you
- 32:57Speaker 13: actually see how the being taught in some cases a
- 33:02Speaker 13: lot of cases by humans by the team here at
- 33:06Speaker 13: the headquarters, and how to eat, how to forage for food,
- 33:09Speaker 13: how to find food, how to survive in the wild
- 33:12Speaker 13: so that they can then be released back into the
- 33:14Speaker 13: wild and join the herd. So it's a remarkable experience
- 33:17Speaker 13: and it's amazing thing to live down here in Africa.
- 33:20Speaker 13: So who's coming to Africa next?
- 33:22Speaker 3: Let me ask you this? Right? So, yeah, I think
- 33:25Speaker 3: I would guess that one of the most special moments
- 33:28Speaker 3: of being on this trip with Michelle, your wife and
- 33:30Speaker 3: this was her dream to go to Africa is not
- 33:33Speaker 3: just enjoying it for yourself, but also seeing her reaction
- 33:36Speaker 3: and what it's doing for her.
- 33:37Speaker 13: Right. Oh, I mean, you can't even imagine when you
- 33:41Speaker 13: look into her face and she cries an awful lot.
- 33:43Speaker 13: She has emotions over workers down here. I mean yesterday
- 33:47Speaker 13: we were when we were in Harari, and you have
- 33:49Speaker 13: to understand, we're sitting on the back porch of a
- 33:53Speaker 13: home in the center of this facility, and we're having
- 33:56Speaker 13: cocktails and glasses of wine, and the back yall it's
- 34:01Speaker 13: just filled with like giraffe, fan zebra and decock and
- 34:07Speaker 13: just wild animals just roaming around living their best life
- 34:11Speaker 13: because they've been rescued. And Michelle. I got a video
- 34:15Speaker 13: I think I posted it of Michelle literally standing with
- 34:18Speaker 13: the several giraffe feeding them and she could not believe
- 34:23Speaker 13: what she was doing. It was incredibly emotional.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Wow, Well, that's going to do it for the best
- 34:27Speaker 1: of Billy and Lisa in the morning again, it's producer Riley.
