  Speaker 11: Point and Scarpetta.
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: They're both pretty interesting. Scar Pett's kind of like a drama.

  Speaker 1: so you stop watching the show.
• 3:29
  Speaker 12: Speaking of Witch, talking about characters on TV shows that
• 3:33
  Speaker 12: you can't stand. Who do you think was the worst
• 3:36
  Speaker 12: character on Friends? I can tell you that every time

  Speaker 12: ross him on the screen and wanted to punch him
• 3:42
  Speaker 12: in the face.

  Speaker 1: Oh, David Swimmer. He was the least favorite of all
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: the guys on Friends.
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: Right, well, he was the most annoying.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I love Chandler, all right, B Matthew Perry. Yeah.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: But the David Swimmer thing is funny because if you remember,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: if you're a longtime listener of the show, many years ago,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: there was an app that came out on your phone
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: where you could put your picture in and it would
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: tell you who your celebrity doppelganger was. So we all
• 4:04

• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Ride or Die? Ride or Die? Is that a thriller?
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but it's deep drama. It's insane that
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the streaming era. You know, remember back when it was
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: only network TV. Yeah, that's all there was. Now there's
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: there's tumor. You can't keep up, No, you really can't
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: too many.
• 6:03
  Speaker 14: A show that I'm watching on Netflix, The Last Ship,
• 6:07
  Speaker 14: is really good, has Eric Dane. I guess it's an
• 6:10
  Speaker 14: oldest show because there's several.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Seasons passed away. Yes he did, and I had never
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: heard of it, but and I.
• 6:16
  Speaker 14: Know there's mixed reviews on it, but I really like it.
• 6:18
  Speaker 14: I think it's a good watch. Another show I'm watching
• 6:21
  Speaker 14: is Lioness on Paramount with Nicole Kidman and Zoe's sel Donna.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a really.
• 6:31
  Speaker 14: Really good watch too.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Lioness. I'm loving Billy keeps comparing Zoey's hel Donna to
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: my wife Jen because she's an assassin.
• 6:40
  Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I want to see lions Oh yeah.
• 6:42
  Speaker 8: The Lioness is in the backyard up in New Hampshire.
• 6:46
  Speaker 8: But yeah, I'm telling you, Lionis is great. Go back
• 6:49
  Speaker 8: watch the first season. Nicole Kidman is in. It's always Eldna.
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: The cast is fabulous. I'm going to say one thing
• 6:55
  Speaker 8: about Lioness that bugs me, and it bugs my wife Michelle.
• 7:00
  Speaker 8: It's not about a singular character, but it's a heavy show, right,
• 7:06
  Speaker 8: I mean real heavy military show, like Navy seal like
• 7:10
  Speaker 8: and c I A all of this, and they keep
• 7:13
  Speaker 8: taking us to the family home like you know, zoways
• 7:18
  Speaker 8: el Donna. She's like crazy assassin, right, and it's all
• 7:21
  Speaker 8: about military and frogment, and like every episode they feel
• 7:25
  Speaker 8: the need to have us see her.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Coming home for a couple of days to hang out
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: with a family. No one cares, No one cares, take
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: me back. I feel like they do that to take
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: up time in the show.
• 7:38
  Speaker 8: It's like, I don't need to know the husband, and
• 7:42
  Speaker 8: I certainly don't need to know the young kids.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Take me back out there in the chopper, you open fire,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: let you go, you want, I'm home? Okay, fine, But
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: if you're into the characters, you know a little bit,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: so you don't care about the backstory because the backstory
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: is not interesting, nor is the family. And if you're
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: listening to me right.
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: Now, maybe they should be our family, right.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just the other data is boring and the
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: kids are always in the bedroom, like you know, it's like,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: who cares?
• 8:19
  Speaker 12: Okay, stop being so freaking judging.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying, gear up and get back out there.

  Speaker 8: a little piece sure in the club man, but it's
• 15:31
  Speaker 8: pretty simple without the be you don't.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: So now, now, now that you have the new album

• 16:07
  Speaker 15: I might cover it. But for now, the main focus
• 16:10
  Speaker 15: is definitely on original music, putting out you know, producing
• 16:13
  Speaker 15: and writing and putting out an original album. Totally different

• 23:57
  Speaker 8: of Justin, Like Justin menacing. He's got veins and muscles
• 24:01
  Speaker 8: popping out every evening, and then there's you are eating

  Speaker 1: So jimmy your headline in the wilbur Yes, right, August
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: twenty ninth. Yeah, is there a point that could that
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: could come where you walk away from the jand of
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: the job. If it's if the comedy keeps on growing,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: because it seems to be growing pretty fast, that's a
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: great question.
• 25:23
  Speaker 18: I might have to take a full vacation day instead
• 25:25
  Speaker 18: of a half one soon, you know what I mean,
• 25:28
  Speaker 18: I don't I would love to do that.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: You know you've already got a pension. I'm guessing I've
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: got the pension.
• 25:32
  Speaker 18: But the thing with the City of Wistar is like
• 25:34
  Speaker 18: I got to do it's a time plus age calculation.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: So as I get to a.
• 25:38
  Speaker 18: Full retirement package, I got to do like forty years
• 25:42
  Speaker 18: so I think I'm invested. I think if I retired
• 25:45
  Speaker 18: right now to get like one hundred dollars a month
• 25:46
  Speaker 18: and yeah after you got a sex so I got
• 25:49
  Speaker 18: I don't have.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Something like that. I did the math, probably did it wrong.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: It was half fifty right, twenty years in.
• 25:56
  Speaker 18: Yeah, yeah, so I'm like halfway there, but like Justin's
• 26:00
  Speaker 18: that I would like to make the leap, you know,
• 26:02
  Speaker 18: eventually one of these days I got to, you know, Pooper, get.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: Off the pot. You know, well you've got one over
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand followers.
• 26:09
  Speaker 18: Yeah on TikTok. Yeah, that's just TikTok. Did they know
• 26:16
  Speaker 18: all this at the school?
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 26:18
  Speaker 18: Oh yeah, you know, yeah, they they've come to shows.
• 26:20
  Speaker 18: They're all supportive and stuff like that. I think it's
• 26:23
  Speaker 18: kind of like old news to.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Them at this point. You know.
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: They just give you like good material too.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: It does.
• 26:28
  Speaker 18: Yeah, and the kids, the kids are very supportive. They
• 26:30
  Speaker 18: have me signed their paper towels and the year books
• 26:32
  Speaker 18: and stuff like that, and their lunch bags and lunch bags. Yeah,
• 26:35
  Speaker 18: they'll be like, oh my mom.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Was watching you on her phone. I'm looking at a
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: report and I think we saw this coming.
• 26:48
  Speaker 8: That fewer and fewer people, especially young people, are either
• 26:53
  Speaker 8: not drinking at all or they're drinking a lot less.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: And apparently for different reasons.
• 27:00
  Speaker 8: I think most of them are doing it because drinking
• 27:02
  Speaker 8: has just gotten very expensive.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: And then I'm making enough money to afford to go out, so.
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: They'll pregame right before they go out. And also I
• 27:10
  Speaker 7: think a lot of the you know, cannabis stores now,
• 27:13
  Speaker 7: like they'll do a gummy or something and then go out.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so they'll do that instead of drinkingpen edimal yeah,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: before they go out.
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: And the other thing is you know, saving it's saving money.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: But then also the health thing. Yeah, I feel like
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: a lot of people, younger people are taking their health
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: more serious and fitness. They're hitting the gyms. That's seen
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: a boom as well. Yeah.
• 27:35
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but a big percentage of it is that exactly
• 27:38
  Speaker 8: it's healthier not to drink or to certainly drink a let.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go to the report. Have you haven't seen
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: that any drinks and mocktails are the fastest growing segment
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: in our industry and that it tells us a lot
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: about the younger generation and the choices they make when
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: they go out.
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: I'm just like there's no reason for it.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: So I don't drink like a lot back in the day,
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: but it had such a destructive habit on my body.
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: There's more people who are more conscious of the amount
• 28:04
  Speaker 8: that they are consuming.
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: They're moving away from the beer, they're moving away from
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: the cocktails.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you know what.
• 28:10
  Speaker 8: My TV shows, we work a lot of restaurants and
• 28:13
  Speaker 8: bars and stuff like that, and people have been telling
• 28:15
  Speaker 8: me for months and months now in the industry that
• 28:18
  Speaker 8: it really is affecting the business because.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: Whether it's a restaurant or a bar, the money has
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: always been in the booze.
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: And now they're redesigning their restaurants with this in mind.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: They're reorganizing, they're coming up.
• 28:30
  Speaker 8: Every time we shoot at a restaurant for the TV show,
• 28:34
  Speaker 8: there are more and more mocktails available and they get very,
• 28:38
  Speaker 8: very creative now with the mocktails.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Well, that's there to adjust. Yeah, you know, people aren't
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: spending money and not drinking. They have to adjust. It
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: sounds like that's what they're doing.
• 28:47
  Speaker 8: Jenny Johnson, my partner in TV, she doesn't drink at all,
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: hasn't for like eight or nine years, right.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: My wife, Michelle hardly drinks. Like, if anything, she'll have
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: a glass of wine or she'll have one drink and
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: not to hell because tequila is ido, it's clean. Yeah,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I mean I don't. I don't drink. I've been drinking
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: a long time. So I like that. You know, you
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: can have fun without drinking. I like that message you
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: don't need to drink to have fun, And yeah, I
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: mean it's not gonna I remember when I hired a coach,
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: a nutrition coach, and he sent me the email kind
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: of like, you know, laying everything out, and at the
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: end it said, I'm not going to tell you that
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: you cannot drink alcohol. You're a grown adult, but I
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: will tell you that alcohol will one hundred percent hold
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: you back from your goals. Wow, let's go to our
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: resident young person on the show, producer Riley. Do you drink?
• 29:36
  Speaker 7: Not really?
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: But also I think a lot of times people are
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: realizing that they can have fun without drinking, which is
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: a big thing. You can go to a club and
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: have a lot of fun on the dance floor with
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: your friends without having to drink.
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: But I do think that the money thing is like
• 29:49
  Speaker 7: the biggest thing.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Even mocktails are expensive now sometimes they're like two dollars
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: less than a drink with alcohol in it, And you're like,
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: there's no alcohol, why is this so expensive? But I
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: know a lot of people, like I've friend that lives
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: in Nashville and she'll go out and put like nips
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: in her bra and then order like a soda or
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: a like a lemonade or something while she's there and
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: make her own drink because of the cost because it's cheaper,
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: but you're still having something in your hand to sip
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: on while you're there.
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: Who wants to pay twenty five dollars for a glass
• 30:17
  Speaker 7: of wine? Well more right?
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 30:19
  Speaker 19: I know.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: I mean my wife and I don't drink. We go
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: out to eat and we'll like, imagine if we drank,
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: what the bill would have been.
• 30:25
  Speaker 8: Oh yeah, If you look at your bill at the
• 30:28
  Speaker 8: end of a dinner, if like it's a four people
• 30:30
  Speaker 8: or six people, most of the bill is the drinks.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's crazy.
• 30:36
  Speaker 8: And again they're reorganizing businesses and bars and restaurants to
• 30:40
  Speaker 8: account for the fact that few are in feber. Some
• 30:43
  Speaker 8: of them have closed down because people stop drinking. Young
• 30:45
  Speaker 8: people going to clubs and nightclubs.
• 30:47
  Speaker 7: Right, They're retooling the concepts, so they're still going out.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Oh, it's not drinking, it's not paying for drinks. Yeah,
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: not to mention.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: If you're going to like a nightclub, and you want
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: to go to like multiple clubs, you have to pay
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: an entrance fee every time, and sometimes it's like twenty
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: bucks to get in. So that's like one drink right there,
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: just to get in.
• 31:05
  Speaker 18: You no wonder people don't want to drink.
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: And young people are having a tough enough time just
• 31:09
  Speaker 8: to maintain an apartment. I know, let alone go out
• 31:12
  Speaker 8: and spend twenty five twenty eight bucks.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: Of drink, especially if we live in the city. It's
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: so expensive. Rent is so expensive. And I think about it, Riley,
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: I've never I've actually never seen you drink, now.
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: That I think about it, Yeah, probably not. I just
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: I think that I'm like a fun person without it.
• 31:27
  Speaker 7: So I really just don't feel the need.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: And it's not like a health thing. It's like halftime,
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: it's a money thing. But the other times it's just
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: like you don't feel me.
• 31:33
  Speaker 7: I just don't care enough to.
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: I got to tell you, all three of my boys
• 31:37
  Speaker 8: they don't drink. And if you go somewhere where my
• 31:40
  Speaker 8: three boys are. They're the life of the party. Alex
• 31:42
  Speaker 8: not a single drink. Alex will dance up a storm alone.
• 31:45
  Speaker 7: I want to go to a wedding that Yes, I
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: actually went to a wedding and all three of them
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: were there and they all took their shirts off.
• 31:52
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and we're on the dance sept so completely.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: So yeah, they were at a wedding this past weekend.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: I was watching all the clips. It was with the
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: microphone on the van floor and.
• 32:02
  Speaker 8: Sometimes it's not even a microphone, it's just like a
• 32:04
  Speaker 8: hair brush or something, and he's entertaining the whole wedding.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Really, it's crazy, that's really funny.
• 32:09
  Speaker 7: I still like a class of wine.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so do I an occasional cosmo. You don't not drink.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's why people, I think are drinking at
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: home more, which I know that sounds a little bit weird,
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: but like it's definitely cheaper to go out and get
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: a six pack than it is to go to a club,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: and then you knows, definitely.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: Now it's a Topic Time with Billy and Lisa in
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: the morning.
• 32:31
  Speaker 8: Topic Time presented by a Catches law group, the Personal
• 32:33
  Speaker 8: Injury Experts.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: He catches law dot com.
• 32:36
  Speaker 8: If you've been injured on the job, by the way,
• 32:38
  Speaker 8: no fault of yours, you can set up an absolutely
• 32:40
  Speaker 8: free consult at catches law dot com. So we're heading
• 32:44
  Speaker 8: into the long fourth of July weekend. Everybody plans backyard parties,
• 32:47
  Speaker 8: pool side parties, they're going to the beach, they're dragging.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: Coolers, whatever. And there's a report out this morning.
• 32:53
  Speaker 8: I think we saw this coming that more and more people,
• 32:56
  Speaker 8: especially young people, are either not drinking anymore or drinking
• 33:01
  Speaker 8: a lot less.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: And we kicked off the conversation.
• 33:03
  Speaker 8: Let's continue it with Lisa, who's calling in from West Roxbury.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Lisa, what's your story, good one.
• 33:10
  Speaker 19: I was I was basically a liability when I was drinking.
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: I was a liability to my friends.
• 33:15
  Speaker 19: I mean I was three sheets for the wind every
• 33:17
  Speaker 19: single time. I thought I was a party animal when
• 33:19
  Speaker 19: I was drinking. I don't drink anymore. I enjoy dancing
• 33:23
  Speaker 19: so much more. I enjoyed the entertainment, I feel the
• 33:26
  Speaker 19: music even more. There's no need for me to ever
• 33:29
  Speaker 19: drink ever again, which I will not. But back in
• 33:33
  Speaker 19: the day, I mean I probably spend you know, almost
• 33:35
  Speaker 19: two hundred bucks a week just for drinking. And now
• 33:38
  Speaker 19: it's like I have money in my pocket now and
• 33:39
  Speaker 19: I enjoyed it. I enjoy it now, just like your
• 33:41
  Speaker 19: son's party animal.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Yep. So it's a combination of the cost as well
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: as the fact that you don't just don't want to
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: drink anymore.
• 33:50
  Speaker 19: Woman to cover an alcoholics so I will never drink again.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: So yeah, he's allergic to it like me. Congratulations. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: you know you you cross a line, right. It's like,
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: you know, normal as you have a drink or two,
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: and that's fine, but if you have to keep drinking
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: until you're completely plastered and making bad decisions and bad choices,
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: that's a problem.
• 34:10
  Speaker 8: Once you're getting sloppy and offending people and acting ridiculous,
• 34:14
  Speaker 8: it's time to revisit yourself.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely. But there's many reasons why they're not drinking, right,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: we talked about them. It's you know, like you said,
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: it's could be fitness, could be health, could be the money,
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: could be you have a problem. You know, I'm not
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: a big drinker.
• 34:27
  Speaker 7: I mean, right now, I'm not drinking because I'm breastfeeding
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: or whatever.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: Excuse me I'm talking. I also have you know, I
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: love her so much. What's this person's name. I'm gonna
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: mock this down, kids.
• 34:40
  Speaker 20: But even before that, you know, I didn't really like
• 34:43
  Speaker 20: drinking that much because I'd rather eat a dessert.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: I'd rather eat a massive dessert than drink my calories.
• 34:51
  Speaker 7: And the hangover is not worth it.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the same. And the cost is such a
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: big part of it.
• 34:57
  Speaker 8: Now again, you know, if you're drinking and you think
• 35:00
  Speaker 8: you're drinking a lot, just check your bill when it
• 35:02
  Speaker 8: comes to the table and you'll see the majority of
• 35:04
  Speaker 8: it it's for the booths.
• 35:05
  Speaker 7: And the other thing is the poor. When you see
• 35:07
  Speaker 7: like this was twenty five dollars at looks like it's
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: like like two out.
• 35:11
  Speaker 8: Funny, you should mention that that's another factor. Now when
• 35:14
  Speaker 8: you go out to a bar or a restaurant.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: The poor is very small. They they're making the drinks
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: weaker because they're not making as much money on the boots. Yeah.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: And then when we go out together and I gorge
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: myself in food, that's because I don't drink. So you know,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: that's all I have left is the food.
• 35:32
  Speaker 20: Yeah, yeah, you know, Bill, excuse me, I'm talking take
• 35:37
  Speaker 20: it easy Thursday.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: This is Kim A great book club last night. Least
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: you did amazing.
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: But as far as the drinks go right now, I'm
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: on a one drink when I go out, maybe two.
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: A couple of summers ago, we had a bang up
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: some night, my whole family down at Monte Cristo's and
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: manamet if you.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: Know, you know.
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: Next day was a beautiful beach day.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: Everyone was there. I couldn't get off the deck.
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: I couldn't even sit up.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Nicknamed me Verity.
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: Once you read the book, Verity is bed written, so yeah,
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: my name Verity has stuck.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: So no more hangovers for the That's so funny. Yeah,
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: you got to know when to stop. But you got
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: a picture of Verity. She just lays in the bed.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: She's a mobile.
• 36:18
  Speaker 20: So I haven't really been drinking right now due to
• 36:20
  Speaker 20: like fitness stuff. But I also was like, yeah, this
• 36:24
  Speaker 20: will like save me money in the meantime, which is
• 36:26
  Speaker 20: great because I know how expensive it is, like you
• 36:28
  Speaker 20: guys said, and then also.
• 36:31
  Speaker 11: Just I do agree that you can have fun without drinking,
• 36:34
  Speaker 11: but it's hard when you're like with your friends still
• 36:36
  Speaker 11: that are drinking.
• 36:38
  Speaker 6: And you're the only one that's sober.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: So that's kind of tough and everyone's making fun of like, Ooh.
• 36:41
  Speaker 20: I'm Ellie and I can have this one vodka soda
• 36:43
  Speaker 20: because it has ninety calories in it.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: But when I'm shouted and they're not who kids? Yeah?
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Who cares? Ali? Yeah?
• 36:49
  Speaker 8: And again for young people, you read the stories all
• 36:52
  Speaker 8: the time. They came and in ford or department. Some
• 36:54
  Speaker 8: of them are moving back home with their parents. And
• 36:56
  Speaker 8: it's expensive out there, and liquors a big part of it.
• 37:00
  Speaker 7: Part of it.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, think what you're trying to make rent,
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: put food on the table. You're not going to be
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: going to the club and spending two hundred dollars in
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: a night on alcohol so expensive.
• 37:08
  Speaker 11: I don't think it has as much to do with
• 37:10
  Speaker 11: fitness and money as it does with like phones and
• 37:12
  Speaker 11: social media.
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: I think millennials were, you know, drinking and getting confidence.
• 37:18
  Speaker 6: It's that they looked great and their dance moods were
• 37:20
  Speaker 6: killing it. And this generation is looking back at the
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: videos of them from the night before and they're like, ew,
• 37:26
  Speaker 6: I'm never drinking again.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: And I'm telling you yeah.
• 37:30
  Speaker 8: I've talked to a lot of business owners, nightclub owners,
• 37:33
  Speaker 8: and they have been shifting in a big way to
• 37:37
  Speaker 8: other directions.
• 37:37
  Speaker 7: They're retooling their concepts.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was always about the booze.
• 37:41
  Speaker 8: And they keep telling me fewer and fewer young people
• 37:44
  Speaker 8: are drinking, and if they are, they're drinking less, or
• 37:47
  Speaker 8: they're drinking at home and then going out.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: I mean what you just said. Thank God, there wasn't
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: you know, as many phones with video cameras like when
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: I was drinking home boy, I mean, completely embarrassing, so
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: that she could have a point there. You know, all
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: the phone, social media, everything gets posted. It's just a
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: different world.
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: Good morning again. Kiss went a way through as far
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: as drinking goes. Let me tell you something I like
• 38:13
  Speaker 6: to drink. We own a boat. He kind of goes
• 38:16
  Speaker 6: along with boating drinking. But you're right, especially in Gloucester.
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: If you get a drink in Gloucester, they give you
• 38:25
  Speaker 6: probably a third of an ounce of alcohol and charge
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: you fourteen dollars for Tito's and soda.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Hell no, bring your nips, stuff them in your bra.
• 38:39
  Speaker 8: Did producer Riley say on this show a few minutes
• 38:42
  Speaker 8: ago that she has a friend that puts nips in
• 38:44
  Speaker 8: her boss wants.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: You to do that? Wow, talk about it?
• 38:47
  Speaker 7: Don't you stick out.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: It's got to be uncomfortable, right again. I mean, we
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: don't know. I've never worn a bra.
• 38:53
  Speaker 7: But yeah, plably makes things look a little weird.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: I guess maybe if you wore like a shirt Bill
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: is he. I'm talking.
• 39:04
  Speaker 6: A lot of people don't drink anymore. Also because the
• 39:06
  Speaker 6: smart device is like you're walking in your warding.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: Because yeah, say yeah, exactly what that like? The smart
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: device is, the watches, things like that. Technology has an
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: impact on it as well. Wow, okay, yeah, no the
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: caddy here. I don't know about all this talk about drinking,
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: but I'm going to be drinking a lot out in
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: the golf course today. I'm gonna say hydrated.
• 39:27
  Speaker 8: Come on, homies, Yeah, true, hydrated means water or electrolytes.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: I don't think it means yeah, that'll dehydrate you. Yeah,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: drink too much? You drink water? Noah, please out there?
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: You know when is it too early to have aclass?
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: No?
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: You can't have any We know this. We've talked about
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: this endlessly on this show. It's too much for you.
