• 0:38
  Speaker 4: Don't you dare say it wasn't planned.
• 0:40
  Speaker 9: It was not planned. We left the house at different times.
• 0:42
  Speaker 9: I randomly bought this two days ago at TJ Maxx.
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: It was randomly in my car. And I was rushing
• 0:46
  Speaker 5: out of the house. I just threw it on.
• 0:48
  Speaker 6: Look at you shopping at TJ Maxx.
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: Just a regular guy. Look at you.
• 0:52
  Speaker 5: Mommy V's favorite place. No, really.
• 0:54
  Speaker 6: Kelsey, I'm going to ask you. How long did it
• 0:56
  Speaker 6: take for the two of you to put these outfits together?
• 0:59
  Speaker 10: I honestly didn't even see him when he was leaving
• 1:00
  Speaker 10: this morning. So I had no idea what he was wearing.
• 1:03
  Speaker 10: But we did coordinate.
• 1:04
  Speaker 5: You did.
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: You left the house separately?
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: We did, yeah, yeah.
• 1:06
  Speaker 8: Except for cars.
• 1:07
  Speaker 5: We both have a busy day after this, so we're
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: all running around.
• 1:11
  Speaker 7: If you go to Mikey's Instagram, you will see most
• 1:13
  Speaker 7: times the outfits are coordinated.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: Okay, busted.
• 1:18
  Speaker 7: I had Mikey V on air.
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: We have photographic evidence now. The two of you are
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: constantly matching.
• 1:26
  Speaker 6: I texted you about a week ago because I saw
• 1:29
  Speaker 6: your posts on Instagram about the V Family Foundation that
• 1:32
  Speaker 6: you guys are launching. And I was so proud of
• 1:35
  Speaker 6: you guys, and I felt so good for you guys,
• 1:37
  Speaker 6: and I felt the need to reach out.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: Good for you. This is a wonderful thing you're doing.
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: No, we appreciate it.
• 1:41
  Speaker 9: It means the world coming from you, and you've hosted
• 1:43
  Speaker 9: so many events like this and been a part of
• 1:44
  Speaker 9: so many.
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: So to hear that from you means a lot to
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: both of us.
• 1:47
  Speaker 8: Yeah, we're so excited.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: I'm so available if you need me to host a gala.
• 1:50
  Speaker 7: Oh, you're in. You're in.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: You're in.
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: He's all in.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: We'll talk about the price later.
• 1:54
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Justin's going to be like, by the way, Mike,
• 1:56
  Speaker 7: you know that's like $ 6, 000.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: That's fine.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: It's pricey. Six?
• 2:02
  Speaker 11: No.
• 2:02
  Speaker 7: You know, Bill, Mike, all he cares about.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: Hey, we've got his f * * * ing money.
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: F * * * you. Do I have your check?
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: That's all I care about. Go home, you f * * *.
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: I can't be responsible.
• 2:13
  Speaker 6: Kelsey, I really can't be responsible for what Justin does
• 2:17
  Speaker 6: in that room of his.
• 2:19
  Speaker 7: That was the last gala he hosted.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: Do I have your check? That's all I care about.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: Go home, you f * * *.
• 2:24
  Speaker 7: Can we get serious here, please?
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: See, he edits things in there. You know that, Mike.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: He edits things. That's never real. Talk about the foundation.
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: We're super excited.
• 2:33
  Speaker 9: Again, I've said a million times that I've thrown parties
• 2:36
  Speaker 9: my entire life for all the wrong reasons. I think
• 2:39
  Speaker 9: I used to come on this show every Friday and
• 2:40
  Speaker 9: talk about what artist was that memoir, who was that
• 2:43
  Speaker 9: big night live and all that. Now we get to
• 2:45
  Speaker 9: do something that really is my purpose in life and
• 2:48
  Speaker 9: this chapter.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: Of my career and really Kelsey's as well.
• 2:51
  Speaker 9: And, you know, we're throwing a very cool event, a
• 2:53
  Speaker 9: launch party for our V Family Foundation.
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: It's going to be a memoir inside on, of course. Yes,
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: I get it. A lot of parties there. Oh, yeah.
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: A lot of late nights.
• 3:01
  Speaker 9: But this one will be why the sun's still out
• 3:03
  Speaker 9: a little bit. So it'll be at 630 on October 10th.
• 3:06
  Speaker 9: But there's an interesting story behind it. So our V
• 3:09
  Speaker 9: Family Foundation is made to support local families. Every dollar
• 3:12
  Speaker 9: goes to our community.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: So local families affected by rare disease. And special needs.
• 3:16
  Speaker 9: And Kelsey can talk a little bit about her brother,
• 3:19
  Speaker 9: who we call Bubba, but named Chris.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:21
  Speaker 10: So he has a rare genetic disorder that it's just
• 3:24
  Speaker 10: less like widely known compared to some other diseases. He
• 3:28
  Speaker 10: has Angelman syndrome and he also has cerebral palsy and
• 3:32
  Speaker 10: like a severe seizure disorder. So everything combined, like you
• 3:37
  Speaker 10: can imagine how hard life is. And I've just seen
• 3:39
  Speaker 10: like my family struggle so much growing up that we
• 3:42
  Speaker 10: want to help other families that you know, are like
• 3:45
  Speaker 10: ours and other people like him.
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: And it's good that you're doing this because like you say, no,
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: nobody knows about it.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: Not enough people know about it.
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: So by doing it, you can shine a light on
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: it and hopefully get more people involved.
• 3:56
  Speaker 9: And that's a goal because it's really a lot of
• 3:58
  Speaker 9: little things that can make their day to day life
• 3:59
  Speaker 9: so much easier. People who have a rare disease, like
• 4:02
  Speaker 9: this live so much easier because Bubba or Chris.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: Is nonverbal and in a wheelchair, right?
• 4:06
  Speaker 9: So like to be able to show up at somebody's house,
• 4:08
  Speaker 9: in the greater Boston area that might need a ramp
• 4:10
  Speaker 9: or might just need a wheelchair or maybe even need
• 4:13
  Speaker 9: a van that we can get for them. Because these
• 4:16
  Speaker 9: little things, little is kind of probably the wrong word,
• 4:19
  Speaker 9: but these things can make their day-to-day life A hundred
• 4:22
  Speaker 9: times better. And if we can have the opportunity through
• 4:25
  Speaker 9: an event like this to go to somebody's house, show
• 4:27
  Speaker 9: up there and give them something that can truly change their.
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: Day-to-day life, that's our goal. And every dollar that we raise.
• 4:34
  Speaker 9: Goes back to families right here in our community. Nobody's
• 4:36
  Speaker 9: getting a salary. Nobody's getting paid. Every dollar.
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: You know, we're super excited to be able to get back.
• 4:41
  Speaker 9: And the interesting thing I love about Bubba and Chris,
• 4:44
  Speaker 9: he calling a Bubba, but he's like my best friend.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: And Kelsey knows that.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he loves Mike. I bet he does.
• 4:50
  Speaker 12: I mean, we've met him at his concert.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: But it's so crazy to see her mom plays the
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: radio in their house. They live in Rhode Island.
• 4:57
  Speaker 9: But so even if he doesn't see me, but here's
• 5:00
  Speaker 9: my voice.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: He gets so excited.
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: Wow. That is so great.
• 5:04
  Speaker 12: How can our listeners go to the event?
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so again, it's October 10th.
• 5:08
  Speaker 9: Anybody is welcome. We made it not super fancy. It's
• 5:11
  Speaker 9: not a Billy Costa gala, but it's cocktail casual. You
• 5:13
  Speaker 9: can come, you know, just dress respectively. But you just
• 5:16
  Speaker 9: go to vfamilyfoundation.com so you can buy tickets for it.
• 5:21
  Speaker 9: We made them very reasonably priced because we're not trying
• 5:24
  Speaker 9: to raise millions of dollars.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: We've got people in the room. To explain our mission, right?
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: So you can.
• 5:29
  Speaker 9: Buy tickets and you can donate and you can see
• 5:32
  Speaker 9: Bubba in the video that kind.
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: Of explains our mission behind the foundation. All that is
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: up at thefamilyfoundation.com.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: And how do you guys see the night happening itself?
• 5:42
  Speaker 8: Well, I think, I mean, this is our first one.
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: This is really the launch.
• 5:46
  Speaker 10: So, like, our goal is, like, to get people in
• 5:48
  Speaker 10: the room to, like, raise awareness for what we're doing.
• 5:51
  Speaker 10: And I think, like, we're going to start it off
• 5:53
  Speaker 10: with probably, I mean, we'll have the music covered for sure.
• 5:56
  Speaker 9: We have a couple local DJs that will definitely be there.
• 5:59
  Speaker 9: Danny T, one of them, that does Lisa's Book Club
• 6:02
  Speaker 9: for all the sounds and all that, which would be awesome.
• 6:04
  Speaker 9: We have, hopefully, a DJ from Rhode Island that plays
• 6:07
  Speaker 9: the drums. Why, DJs would be pretty cool. We also have, like,
• 6:10
  Speaker 9: a very good magician. coming from Vegas because he randomly
• 6:14
  Speaker 9: has a cruise that goes out of Boston that leaves
• 6:18
  Speaker 9: the 11th on Sunday.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: Timing is perfect.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I really, really did work it out.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: You have a Vegas comedian who does cruise ships? This
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: is so cool to me. He's a magician.
• 6:26
  Speaker 7: He's a magician.
• 6:27
  Speaker 12: I love little tricks, right?
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: He'll be doing like card tricks as you walk around.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: There'll be food. He'll do a quick show.
• 6:33
  Speaker 9: And also a local comedian that's been on your show

  Speaker 6: And the two of you are so connected in so

  Speaker 6: many ways to so many different people and entities. So

• 7:44
  Speaker 4: That's all I care about. Go home, you.
• 7:46
  Speaker 11: Stop it.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: Stop it.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: We are well into September at this point, but people
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: are still divided on if Halloween decoration should be going
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: up around this time or wait until October 1st. Justin's
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: house is being absolutely overrun with Halloween decor.
• 8:03
  Speaker 8: So we were wondering at what.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: Point does it become too much? This is the number
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: four moment.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: I think it's really gotten out of hand.
• 8:11
  Speaker 13: Well, they're calling the trend to put them up early
• 8:13
  Speaker 13: like now, like in Justin's house. They're calling it summer ween.
• 8:17
  Speaker 13: That's what they're calling it.
• 8:18
  Speaker 7: There's a name for it?
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: Yes, Summerween.
• 8:20
  Speaker 7: Summerween?
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: And it's really getting out of control at your house, Justin.
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: What did your wife just get?
• 8:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I feel like it gets earlier and earlier each year.
• 8:31
  Speaker 7: And this year, it's like every day there's new things
• 8:35
  Speaker 7: at my house around Halloween. And she doesn't say anything.
• 8:38
  Speaker 7: That's the new strategy with her. Typically, every time she'd
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: get something new for Halloween, she would show me. But
• 8:44
  Speaker 7: now she doesn't.
• 8:45
  Speaker 12: Oh, she's hiding stuff.
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: Well, she just puts it up and she hopes I
• 8:48
  Speaker 7: don't notice because I'm a typical guy. I don't notice
• 8:51
  Speaker 7: things around the house.
• 8:52
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 8:53
  Speaker 7: So, I mean, just this weekend, all of a sudden,
• 8:56
  Speaker 7: my soap dispensers in the bathroom are ghosts. You think
• 8:59
  Speaker 7: I wouldn't notice that? Of course I noticed that. She
• 9:02
  Speaker 7: has a little skeleton that's on a toilet that sits
• 9:05
  Speaker 7: above our toilet.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 9:07
  Speaker 7: There's pictures on the wall now. I mean, witch stuff.
• 9:11
  Speaker 7: There's a broom.
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Out of nowhere, a broom.
• 9:13
  Speaker 7: In the living room.
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: And then the blow-up screen. But the kids must love it.
• 9:18
  Speaker 12: Gemma must just think it's so adorable.
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: Of course. Of course.
• 9:21
  Speaker 7: And I'm not against it, but it's September 14th. I
• 9:25
  Speaker 7: always thought we waited until October 1st.
• 9:27
  Speaker 8: It's Summerween.
• 9:28
  Speaker 7: I guess it's Summerween. And then, like Bill said, the
• 9:30
  Speaker 7: big purchase this weekend, this is unbelievable. She bought a giant,
• 9:34
  Speaker 7: I think it's like 150 feet. blow-up projector for the
• 9:38
  Speaker 7: backyard at my.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: House 150 feet it's.
• 9:42
  Speaker 7: Giant it's a giant projection screen and then she bought.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: A projector as well yeah it's fun.
• 9:48
  Speaker 7: So she's gonna screen halloween movies in the back and
• 9:50
  Speaker 7: how she made me feel good about it was well
• 9:52
  Speaker 7: you can use it for football.
• 9:53
  Speaker 12: Too yeah that's fun it's good for parties yeah i
• 9:56
  Speaker 12: think it.
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: All changed it shifted gears Was it last year or
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: the year before the 12-foot skeletons arrived?
• 10:04
  Speaker 12: It was a few years ago now.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: That's when everything kind of took another turn.
• 10:07
  Speaker 11: Yes.
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: Well, there was the race for those giant skeletons because
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: they were selling out.
• 10:12
  Speaker 14: You couldn't get them.
• 10:14
  Speaker 7: We have not gotten them yet because I don't want
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: to store them anymore. And I don't want to leave
• 10:17
  Speaker 7: them up all year round. That's her idea. You dress
• 10:20
  Speaker 7: them up for every season. So, you know, it's a
• 10:22
  Speaker 7: skeleton for Halloween and then Christmas got a Santa hat on.
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I've got the giant skeletons in my neighborhood, and
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: they do leave them up all year long.
• 10:30
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: Every holiday.
• 10:31
  Speaker 12: They're so big. It's too much to keep putting them
• 10:34
  Speaker 12: up and taking them down.
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 10:36
  Speaker 7: It's too much. So, I don't know. I'll probably lose
• 10:39
  Speaker 7: that battle by the end of the week. There'll be
• 10:40
  Speaker 7: a skeleton at my house.
• 10:41
  Speaker 8: Good morning.
• 10:42
  Speaker 15: And it is never, ever too early to start on
• 10:46
  Speaker 15: Halloween things. I work at a haunted house and a
• 10:48
  Speaker 15: haunted trail, and we start planning the second Halloween is
• 10:51
  Speaker 15: over for the next year. So, we already knew last
• 10:54
  Speaker 15: year what our this year's theme was. I'm scaring people,
• 11:04
  Speaker 15: and I'm loving it. Happy Halloween, everyone.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: It sounded like she had a projector on behind her.
• 11:09
  Speaker 7: She probably did.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: Do you have that thing where you project the pictures.
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: And the colors on the front of the house?
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: Oh, yes, we have those.
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: Those aren't up yet. The outside decorations are not up yet.
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: This is all the new indoor decorations.
• 11:22
  Speaker 12: Are you in charge of the outdoor decorations?
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: I do help. I saw some things that haven't gone
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: out yet. There's a graveyard. with tombstones that she bought.
• 11:32
  Speaker 7: I saw those in the garage, so those will be
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: coming out.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: Is she going to be decorating the chicken house?
• 11:36
  Speaker 7: Oh, my God, absolutely.
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: Oh, my God.
• 11:38
  Speaker 12: Is she going to have, like, little costumes for the chickens?
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: Oh, I don't know about that.
• 11:41
  Speaker 12: Like little bow ties?
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: Oh, that one, like orange bow ties would be so cool.
• 11:47
  Speaker 7: I'll have to see what happens there.
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 11:49
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a whole scene. But, yeah, I'm thinking, I mean,
• 11:51
  Speaker 7: I know the haunted houses, they open soon, I think
• 11:53
  Speaker 7: next week. I think this weekend.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: Eventually, that's going to be your move.
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: You're going to open your house as a haunted house
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: and charge people to be aligned down the cul-de-sac to
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: get through the backyard.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: You'll have people jumping out from behind trees and bushes.
• 12:09
  Speaker 7: There's no one scarier than my mother-in-law.
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: This is naughty.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: It's the number three moment here.
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Just a couple minutes ago, we were talking about Halloween decorations,
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: and if they're getting out of hand, you guys had
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: some really strong opinions.
• 12:24
  Speaker 7: So let's hear it.
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: Unbelievable.
• 12:26
  Speaker 16: They start into August, like there's crowds already outside the restaurants,
• 12:33
  Speaker 16: and all the funny people are out.
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: It really does. It's Summerween, right, Lisa?
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: It is.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: It's Summerween.
• 12:39
  Speaker 12: That's the new term.
• 12:40
  Speaker 7: It gets earlier and earlier every single year. And I'm
• 12:43
  Speaker 7: not anti-Halloween. I like Halloween. But it's like you transition
• 12:46
  Speaker 7: out of summer. I'm kind of still in summer mode.
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: You know, the weather today is going to be nice.
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: I just see you, Justin, now that you have a
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: jumbotron blow up screen in the backyard and everything else
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: that your wife, Jen, is doing.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: I see your future.
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: You're going to become one of those houses that everybody
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: goes to, you know, like the ones in Saugusleys where
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: long lines of cars because.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: All the houses are decorated.
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: You're going to get your entire cul-de-sac to become one
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: of those places.
• 13:16
  Speaker 7: You know what? That actually is one of my fears.
• 13:19
  Speaker 7: It's getting to that point. She also got a popcorn machine.
• 13:21
  Speaker 7: Like a legit popcorn machine.
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
• 13:23
  Speaker 7: It stands up. It's on wheels.
• 13:24
  Speaker 12: That's hilarious.
• 13:25
  Speaker 7: We have a slush machine now, and she's buying a
• 13:28
  Speaker 7: hot dog rolling machine. A hot dog machine. Oh, where
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: the hot dogs sit on the rollers? That's more for summer,
• 13:33
  Speaker 7: but the popcorn machine is going to be for the
• 13:35
  Speaker 7: Halloween party.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: Oh, break it out for Halloween. Have some dogs.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: I love this topic.
• 13:41
  Speaker 17: It is never too early to put out those Halloween decorations.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: It's one of my favorite times of the year. If
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: you have them, put them out.
• 13:49
  Speaker 7: Enjoy it.
• 13:49
  Speaker 18: Life is short.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: I have animatronics, and I'm thinking about putting those out
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: this week.
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: Why not?
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: Let's let the kids have fun.

  Speaker 6: Day or one weekend. Then it became an entire month
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: of October.
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: She said she's a tour guide in Salem.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: That's what she said, right?
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: She is a tour guide. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: your tour of Salem, Massachusetts. I'll be your tour guide, Dale.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: Take a look to your right. You'll see the Salem
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Witch Museum.
• 15:28
  Speaker 7: Nice.
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: And directly to your left, the House of Seven Gables.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: Speaking of houses, you guys are going to love this.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: Directly in front of us is the Salem Waterfront Hotel,
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: where local celebrity Billy Costa lives. Oh, my God.
• 15:46
  Speaker 7: Yep, the old days. Oh, memories, huh, Bill?
• 15:52
  Speaker 19: Yeah.
• 15:52
  Speaker 17: My neighbor has a bunch of Halloween decorations that they
• 15:56
  Speaker 17: put all over their lawn, like literally covering their lawn
• 15:59
  Speaker 17: with all kinds of stuff. And every year, I can't
• 16:01
  Speaker 17: help but think, they have like 20 coffins, like full-size coffins,
• 16:05
  Speaker 17: and their house is.
• 16:06
  Speaker 18: Not very big.
• 16:07
  Speaker 8: I'm like, where do you keep all of these when
• 16:09
  Speaker 8: it's not Halloween?
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: Do you just have like a coffee table that's a
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: coffin in March?
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: Like, what is this? Believe it or not.
• 16:19
  Speaker 12: They must have a storage facility for it.
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: Some people will actually rent a storage facility for the
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: year so they can store the Halloween decorations.
• 16:26
  Speaker 7: Okay, I want to be very clear here. I will
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: never do that.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't be so sure, buddy.
• 16:31
  Speaker 12: I think we have that on.
• 16:33
  Speaker 13: We just recorded that because I think that that's in
• 16:36
  Speaker 13: your future.
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: That's a big argument at my house. If it was
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: up to her, I mean, she'd have everything.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: Did Jen already suggest a storage facility?
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: No, not yet. Hopefully she's not listening to this, but
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: it's the storage of it. What that talkbacker said is
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: very valid.
• 16:51
  Speaker 18: Right.
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: After Halloween, you got to put everything away.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: You got to have the storage.
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: Oh, and what sucks is by the time you're taking
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: the Halloween decorations down, it's very cold.
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: Everything's very brittle.
• 17:02
  Speaker 12: And then Jen's going to go into the Festival of Trees.
• 17:04
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: Yeah, and it's going to be me taking everything down,
• 17:08
  Speaker 7: you know?
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah, you're going to have the biggest Santa Claus
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: in New England.
• 17:12
  Speaker 12: No, you'll have like 12 Christmas trees.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: Just bobbing and weaving outside the house.
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: Oh, God, just cars nonstop driving by, honking their horns.
• 17:20
  Speaker 19: This year I put my Halloween decorations up September 1st because,
• 17:24
  Speaker 19: you know, time flies. Before you know it, it's Christmas.
• 17:28
  Speaker 19: Speaking of Christmas, though, in Worcester, there's houses that already
• 17:31
  Speaker 19: have Christmas lights up. I've seen at least four or
• 17:33
  Speaker 19: five just in one area. It was crazy.
• 17:36
  Speaker 12: Well, they've never taken them down.
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: It's kind of sad, the people that keep the lights
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: on all year.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: Well, it keeps it easy. You know, it's just okay.
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: I haven't seen that. I haven't seen that at all. Oh,
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: I see it.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: I see it, too.
• 17:49
  Speaker 7: Really?
• 17:49
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: You know, if you're going to leave them up, leave
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: them up. Don't turn them on. It's kind of sad.
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: You know, it's not making your house look any better.
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: Well, true. Well, true.
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: It's not a decorator's show house.
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: I'd love to hear somebody that does that.
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: They do. I'm telling you, a lot of people do.
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: A lot of laziness, but a lot of people think
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: it enhances their home.
• 18:15
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 18:15
  Speaker 7: If you're one of those people, definitely hit us up.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 18:18
  Speaker 11: You're worried about storing a skeleton, and you have a
• 18:23
  Speaker 11: 50-foot screen, and you have– a cotton candy maker and
• 18:28
  Speaker 11: a bouncy house and a full-size popcorn maker. I don't
• 18:32
  Speaker 11: think the skeleton is your issue.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: Good point.
• 18:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah. We don't have a cotton candy maker yet.
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: Well, you have popcorn. You have dogs.
• 18:40
  Speaker 7: It's not that big.
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: And by the way, you can decorate the bouncy house.
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: We have a bouncy house. It's a little one. It's
• 18:47
  Speaker 7: a little blow-up one.
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: Decorate it with some little orange lights.
• 18:50
  Speaker 7: But to answer that person, the projection screen and the
• 18:54
  Speaker 7: bouncy house can be... you know, put.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: Away in a bag.
• 18:58
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 18:58
  Speaker 7: So it deflates into a bag and then store it away.
• 19:00
  Speaker 7: A skeleton, where do you store that? You got to
• 19:03
  Speaker 7: take it apart, but it's still giant.
• 19:05
  Speaker 11: Okay.
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: Here's what I don't understand about the blow up screen.
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: Who's watching movies in the backyard?
• 19:12
  Speaker 7: She has this idea in her head. Like the neighborhood? Yeah,
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: like we'll have a fire.
• 19:16
  Speaker 13: I have to tell you, you're going to do it
• 19:18
  Speaker 13: once and then that one's never being pulled out again.
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: One night. This is a one night only deal, okay?
• 19:23
  Speaker 7: Because what are.
• 19:24
  Speaker 8: You going to do?
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: You're going to feed everybody?
• 19:26
  Speaker 20: They're coming to watch a movie.
• 19:27
  Speaker 13: Because the kids will like watch for like 10 minutes
• 19:30
  Speaker 13: and then they're going to go find something else to do.
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: And then you're going to be sitting alone in front
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: of the blow-up screen.
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: Watching Toy Story.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: Looking for something to watch.
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: Like, you'll be watching, like, you know, MMA fights in
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: the backyard with Jeba.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: What's his name?
• 19:43
  Speaker 7: Jeba?
• 19:45
  Speaker 10: Zeb.
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: Jeba?
• 19:46
  Speaker 7: That's my friend Zeb, yeah.
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 19:51
  Speaker 7: This morning when I told Billy Lisa, he goes, well, yeah,
• 19:54
  Speaker 7: but I wouldn't give for the fire to catch on
• 19:56
  Speaker 7: that projection.
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: Oh, man.
• 19:58
  Speaker 20: That thing will go off like a dry leaf.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: I mean, oof. I think it's good.
• 20:06
  Speaker 7: I think it's fair to say the skeleton is coming.
• 20:09
  Speaker 10: I know.
• 20:09
  Speaker 17: I just want to say that I hate the giant
• 20:11
  Speaker 17: skeleton that's dressed up for all seasons.
• 20:14
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 20:14
  Speaker 12: It's fun for Halloween, but then you've got to take
• 20:17
  Speaker 12: it down.
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: Find a space or don't get it.
• 20:19
  Speaker 12: I have one in my neighborhood that it's Santa. It's
• 20:23
  Speaker 12: covered in hearts around Valentine's Day. It wears an apron
• 20:27
  Speaker 12: around Mother's Day.
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: Hanukkah.
• 20:29
  Speaker 17: It's a flag for the Fourth of July.
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: Come on.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: Welcome back into the best of Billy and Lisa in

  Speaker 8: Studio with her hardware.
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: The show Widows Bay picked up 14 Emmy Awards this
• 20:52

• 21:09
  Speaker 8: Yes, I did. With my business partner, Lisa Lobel. They
• 21:13
  Speaker 8: gave her an Emmy, too. And the two of.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Us sat there with our Emmys with Jason Bateman sitting
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: two rows in front of us.
• 21:21
  Speaker 19: What?
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: And we were just. We were just, it was like
• 21:24
  Speaker 8: a dream.
• 21:25
  Speaker 12: Blown away.
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: Blown away.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: You were sitting next to Jason Bateman. I loved him.
• 21:30
  Speaker 8: Clapping for us.
• 21:31
  Speaker 12: He's one of my favorite actors.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: Well, his show, DTF St. Louis, actually got an Emmy.
• 21:36
  Speaker 8: It won a couple of Emmys.
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
• 21:37
  Speaker 12: All of the actors won.
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 21:40
  Speaker 12: So you had no idea.
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: No idea.
• 21:42
  Speaker 12: You didn't think it was going to happen.
• 21:43
  Speaker 8: Well, here's what happened.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: So we arrived, and they put us in the third row,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: and I said, number one, that's a good sign. Then
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: they kept saying, Lisa Lobel, is Lisa Lobel here?
• 21:53
  Speaker 12: She's like, I'm here.
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: Angela Perry, you say Angela Perry?
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: I'm here.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: So they were checking on us to make sure. I said,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: I think we're going to win.
• 22:01
  Speaker 8: But I wasn't sure. You just don't know.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: Because we've been at these sorts of awards shows before,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: and you get your hopes up, and then.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: You don't win.
• 22:09
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: Now, Widows Bay was shot here for the most part, right?
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: They shot the whole first season here at New England Studios.
• 22:17
  Speaker 8: Shout out to New England Studios and Gloucester.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: They love the town of Gloucester. in Rockport, and they
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: shot the whole thing here.
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: But you've cast a lot of TV shows. You've cast
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: a lot of movies. What do you think made the
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: difference here? Was it the people of this region?
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: What?
• 22:36
  Speaker 8: Well, let me tell you, 140 movies, 35 years in
• 22:38
  Speaker 8: the business.
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: 140?
• 22:43
  Speaker 8: 140 movies.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: I think for this show, it was the authenticity of
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: the local people. Now, we're not going to say who,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: but we know that people say that the show is
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: supposed to be set in Boston.
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: But they don't really shoot here. They shoot in other places.
• 23:02
  Speaker 8: This shot here.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: So all of the 85 speaking roles were all New
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: England actors.
• 23:10
  Speaker 8: All of the hundreds of extras were all New England.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: So this show has that feel, that authenticity that other
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: shows don't have, that they try to replicate either in Atlanta, Toronto.
• 23:24
  Speaker 8: New Jersey. And you can't.
• 23:26
  Speaker 12: It doesn't have the same flavor.
• 23:27
  Speaker 6: It doesn't. But unfortunately, that's been the way they've been
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: going in Hollywood. More and more projects are being shot
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: in Canada. Or I'm hearing now Atlanta has become very big.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: Nashville.
• 23:36
  Speaker 8: Italy has a big tax incentive. We have to boost
• 23:39
  Speaker 8: up our taxes.
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: So in Widows Bay, what would be the places in
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: and around this area that would jump right off the
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: screen at people who live in this region?
• 23:48
  Speaker 8: Oh, Rockport. All of the Rockport.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: And Lisa and I don't really do locations. We do
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: more of the faces. We don't really.
• 23:58
  Speaker 12: When did they film it?
• 23:59
  Speaker 8: They filmed it about a year ago. So it was
• 24:01
  Speaker 8: a quick turnaround.
• 24:01
  Speaker 11: Yeah. Yeah.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: And we start season two. Thank you very much. Probably
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: in March. We start season two.
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: Could be looking at another Emmy. Yeah.
• 24:10
  Speaker 8: Could be looking at bookends. I need bookends. Yes, you do.
• 24:14
  Speaker 8: I have a big mantle.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you picked up on this. Justin,
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: you're sitting in another studio. This is just a couple
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: of East Cambridge kids.
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: Talking Emmy awards, all right?
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: Look at you, too.
• 24:25
  Speaker 12: And you've got a couple of Emmys.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: I've got four or five of them.
• 24:27
  Speaker 11: You do?
• 24:28
  Speaker 8: Absolutely.
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: Catch up, Angela.
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: Where do you have your, what did you say?
• 24:32
  Speaker 7: You've got to catch up to Billy.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 24:34
  Speaker 8: Where do you have your Emmys?
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: I have one or two of them still at WGBH
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: in the glass case in the foyer.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: But most of them are on the bookcase at home.
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: You have an awards case.
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: He does. Okay, I don't want to make this about me, okay?
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: I'm just making it about East Cambridge.
• 24:54
  Speaker 8: My award is going in my parlor.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: And I'm going to put.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: It in my parlor.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: We don't have living rooms in East Cambridge, right? It's
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: the parlor.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: I'm putting it in my parlor in between my two
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: velvet chairs on the marble table. It's going to be gorgeous.
• 25:11
  Speaker 12: So do they have a party for you for all
• 25:13
  Speaker 12: the winners after?
• 25:14
  Speaker 8: Oh, my God. We got invited to the Governor's Ball.
• 25:18
  Speaker 12: That's so cool.
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: The Governor's Ball.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: Who did you run into at the ball?
• 25:21
  Speaker 10: I walked.
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: Everybody was there.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: Everybody was there. Jason Bateman, all the actors from DTF.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: It was just... It was... I can't... We walked in
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: and there were giant Emmys, like.
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: And they had an orchestra and a band in front
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: of the orchestra.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 25:46
  Speaker 8: It was....
• 25:48
  Speaker 12: It was unbelievable.
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: Next level.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: Next level.
• 25:50
  Speaker 8: It was Hollywood.
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Because Lisa Lobel, my business partner, she had said, they
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: have to make this party so great because 80% of
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: the people there were lost. So to make it up
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: to them, the party has to be really great.
• 26:07
  Speaker 8: Tons of food stations. The drinks just kept coming.
• 26:10
  Speaker 12: And everybody brings their Emmy to the party.
• 26:12
  Speaker 8: And everybody brings their Emmy.
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: So you walk around probably with your Emmy.
• 26:15
  Speaker 13: It's 60 pounds.
• 26:15
  Speaker 8: That's such a flex, right? It's 60 pounds. I ended
• 26:19
  Speaker 8: up throwing out my shoulder. But I'm not complaining. I'm
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: not complaining.
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: You know what you're doing? You're just saying. I'm just saying.
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: And it's not enough that you brought the Emmy Award
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: from Hollywood, but you brought biscotti from Royal Pastry in
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: East Cambridge.
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: Yes, thank you, Royal Pastry.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: And I said to them, give me the fresh biscotti
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: because this is for Billy.
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: And they said, okay.
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: Well, my childhood buddy, Dookie, when he brings the pizza
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: in like once a month, it comes from Royal Pastry
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: in East Cambridge.
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: So the biscotti, by the way, is delicious. The soft biscotti.
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: If you had to single out five of your Biggest
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: projects that you are most proud of. Obviously, Widows Bay
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: is in the top five.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: What else?
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Coda, because Coda was the little train that could. And
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: it won the Academy Award. And it was shot here
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: with a director from Cambridge.
• 27:12
  Speaker 8: Hello, Sean Meader. And then Sound of Metal, which was
• 27:16
  Speaker 8: such a great movie that Lisa did. And it was
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: the whole cast was deaf.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: So it was it was a groundbreaking film. And it
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: also went all the way to the Oscar, didn't win,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: but it was nominated.
• 27:31
  Speaker 8: And I don't know. I just love Mark Wahlberg. I
• 27:34
  Speaker 8: love the fighter.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: I just thought the great movie, the sisters in the fighter.
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: To me, they're still iconic. Yes.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: We worked so hard to get that right. And the
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: fifth one would probably be holdovers.
• 27:48
  Speaker 8: I mean, oh, wait, no. You know what my number
• 27:51
  Speaker 8: five is?
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: Tony. Have you seen Tony yet?
• 27:55
  Speaker 8: The Anthony Bourdain story.
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: I haven't seen it yet.
• 27:59
  Speaker 8: Wait till you see it.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: Wait a minute. You cast it?
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 28:03
  Speaker 8: Let's get this straight.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: So my business partner, Lisa, cast Tony.
• 28:08
  Speaker 8: And she also did Widow's Bay.
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: I helped her.
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: Like, we have our own project.
• 28:12
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 28:13
  Speaker 8: She killed it. She did such a great job on
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: both shows.
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: I forget who does it. Who does who plays the lead?
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Dominic Sessa from Holdovers.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: And it's that little point of Anthony Bourdain's life when he.
• 28:28
  Speaker 12: Was in P-Town.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: He he was a writer and then he just he
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: got a job in a restaurant in P-Town and then
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: learned his love of food and his whole life changed.
• 28:38
  Speaker 8: His trajectory of his life change.
• 28:40
  Speaker 12: Isn't Antonio Banderas in it, too?
• 28:41
  Speaker 11: Yes. Yeah.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: And they're talking about him for Oscar buzz. You've got
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: to see how good he looks in this show. Antonio Banderas.
• 28:51
  Speaker 20: Unbelievable.
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: Wait a minute. Are you telling everybody that you're in
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: line for an Oscar now? No, no, no. Okay.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: So the Oscars go, the casting Oscar goes to the lead,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: which is our friend Marisol.
• 29:03
  Speaker 8: So she would get it.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: Lisa and I won't be in line for the Oscars.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: They only give one Oscar to the lead casting director
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: on the Emmys for TV, which is like the Oscars
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: for TV.
• 29:14
  Speaker 8: They give it to the whole team.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: So we're always part of the team because we're the
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: local casting director.
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: I got to tell you, Liz, call me crazy. But
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: as I sit here talking to Angela Perry, a couple
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: of Cambridge kids. I'm thinking you're going to be at
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: Logan Airport today for Voice of Logan and talk about
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: authentic voices.
• 29:32
  Speaker 12: I would love to hear your voice at Logan.
• 29:34
  Speaker 8: People sent it to me, like five people sent it.
• 29:37
  Speaker 8: I'm going to make a tape. Why the hell not?
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: How?
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Welcome to Logan Airport, the home of the Daily Catch.
• 29:44
  Speaker 8: Let's go for a chowder.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God, let's go up to Gloucester after.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: I mean, shut up.
• 29:50
  Speaker 20: That was an unsolicited audition for voice of Logan.
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: I mean, shut up.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, shut up.
• 29:57
  Speaker 7: Shut up. You got it.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Well, the number one moment has to go to Jonathan
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: Tucker and Jeffrey Donovan being in studio.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: They have something really amazing coming to the Boston area.
• 30:07
  Speaker 6: I got to tell you, I am so psyched for
• 30:09
  Speaker 6: this segment. This is going to be so much fun.
• 30:10
  Speaker 6: I could do this all day long. We've got Jonathan
• 30:13
  Speaker 6: Tucker and Jeffrey Donovan in studio, two local guys who
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: are big time movie stars, TV stars. And, Jeffrey, I
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: said Donovan, but you want me to say Donovan.
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: No, no.
• 30:26
  Speaker 14: It's like my cousins back home.
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: Donovan.
• 30:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right.
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah, see, I do the same thing with Lisa. And
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: they yell at me here. You know, her name's Donovan.
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: I said, okay, I call her Donovan.
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: Call him Donnie.
• 30:36
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 30:36
  Speaker 14: That was my nickname in school, Donnie.
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: A couple of local guys. Jeffrey, you're from Amesbury. And, Jonathan,
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: we know you're a townie. You're from Charlestown.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: Did you guys know each other when you were young?
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: No.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: We didn't.
• 30:48
  Speaker 18: We probably, you know, this is a reference to the
• 30:51
  Speaker 18: historic revisiting of our relationship now as adults. We were
• 30:56
  Speaker 18: in the same, you know, we were circling each other
• 30:58
  Speaker 18: in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
• 31:00
  Speaker 14: Yeah, I never got down to these suburbs. I couldn't
• 31:03
  Speaker 14: afford it.
• 31:04
  Speaker 18: Well, you know, the People's Republic 02129 would disagree with
• 31:08
  Speaker 18: that statement. But we did end up meeting when we
• 31:11
  Speaker 18: shot this movie Sleepers in 1995.
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: Amazing movie, too. Amazing. I want to talk about why
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: you guys are in town. You've got a project. You're
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: going to be appearing at Boston Lyric Opera. Is it
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: this Thursday and Friday?
• 31:26
  Speaker 7: Yes. Okay.
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: Well, thanks for coming in. But it's described as a
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: script in hand performance.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: What is that?
• 31:34
  Speaker 14: Well, we're trying to get some interest in fully producing
• 31:41
  Speaker 14: this play. And so if you've heard about this play,
• 31:44
  Speaker 14: you might have known that Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman
• 31:47
  Speaker 14: had done it on Broadway in New York about 10
• 31:49
  Speaker 14: years ago. And it was a full production and it
• 31:52
  Speaker 14: received huge raves. But it hasn't been done in New
• 31:56
  Speaker 14: England and certainly hasn't been done in Boston. So being
• 32:00
  Speaker 14: two Boston kids, we wanted to bring this play because
• 32:03
  Speaker 14: it's a remarkable play about two Chicago police officers in
• 32:06
  Speaker 14: the 90s who– who go through some nightmarish nights in
• 32:13
  Speaker 14: the streets of Chicago. And we wanted to kind of
• 32:16
  Speaker 14: shed some light on the difficulties of being a cop
• 32:21
  Speaker 14: in the 90s in any city in America. And so
• 32:24
  Speaker 14: that's basically what we're doing now.
• 32:26
  Speaker 18: So it's the two of you on stage. It's two
• 32:28
  Speaker 18: of us on stage. We're holding the scripts. We're not
• 32:31
  Speaker 18: off book in any way, shape, or form. But it's
• 32:34
  Speaker 18: one step up from just reading it at a table.
• 32:36
  Speaker 18: But for me, I think what's really exciting is that
• 32:39
  Speaker 18: You know, we're using Boston as a place to, you know,
• 32:42
  Speaker 18: workshop and to be creative and to come home and
• 32:45
  Speaker 18: try things out.
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: And there will be some mistakes.
• 32:48
  Speaker 18: And we want to encourage other folks, not only from
• 32:51
  Speaker 18: New England, but, you know, around to come to Boston
• 32:54
  Speaker 18: and try things out. You know, this is– it's got
• 32:57
  Speaker 18: lots of light on the city, but it's not like
• 32:59
  Speaker 18: going to New York and L.A. where you're going to
• 33:00
  Speaker 18: get nailed if somehow– It's not quite where it needs
• 33:03
  Speaker 18: to be.
• 33:04
  Speaker 14: And we partnered with Stephen Mailer, who I had done
• 33:07
  Speaker 14: Hamlet on Boston on the Common, Shakespeare on the Common.
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: Oh, wow.
• 33:11
  Speaker 14: Stephen Mailer at CSC, Commonwealth Shakespeare Company. And every summer,
• 33:14
  Speaker 14: as you guys know. Oh, yeah, absolutely. So I had
• 33:16
  Speaker 14: done Hamlet with him and we had been talking for
• 33:18
  Speaker 14: years about trying to do some more theater together and.
• 33:21
  Speaker 14: And then he brought this up, and I thought of Tucker,
• 33:24
  Speaker 14: and he thought of Tucker, and right now.
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: It's a perfect fit.
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: So this is at Boston Lyric Opera this coming Thursday
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: and Friday. You can get tickets at Bostick's and Eventbrite
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: at 12. Now, I've got to tell you guys, I'm
• 33:35
  Speaker 6: a little freaked out just sitting in the room with
• 33:37
  Speaker 6: the two of you because.
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: Well, Jonathan, you're coming off. I will find you. You
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: were in the Sicario movies.
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: Jeffrey. So it's kind of freaking me out. By the way, Jonathan, congratulations.
• 33:52
  Speaker 6: On I Will Find You. It's one of the most
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: streamed shows ever.
• 33:58
  Speaker 18: I think it'll be the sixth or the fifth most
• 34:01
  Speaker 18: streamed show ever.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: Let's go fifth.
• 34:03
  Speaker 12: We all binged that.
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: Like literally.
• 34:05
  Speaker 18: In the history of Netflix.
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: It's so wild.
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: All I know is 102 million views.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: That's wild.
• 34:13
  Speaker 18: It's wild to the extent of some of these platforms.
• 34:15
  Speaker 18: I mean, you guys kind of know this in radio.
• 34:17
  Speaker 18: You don't get the exact metrics the way they do
• 34:19
  Speaker 18: on Netflix. But it's wild, you know, the impact that
• 34:22
  Speaker 18: some of these places have. And it's thrilling when you
• 34:25
  Speaker 18: go away to shoot something and you leave your family
• 34:27
  Speaker 18: for a few months and you have no idea whether
• 34:30
  Speaker 18: it's going to work or not. So it's gratifying that
• 34:33
  Speaker 18: it's been such a hit.
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: I actually got mad at you, Jonathan, because I started
• 34:37
  Speaker 6: watching I Will Find You and I said– Oh, my God.
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: There's Jonathan. I didn't know he was in this. And
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: I tried to I did call you and I said,
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: you didn't tell me you were. This is amazing.
• 34:47
  Speaker 18: We it was a low key, a low key play.
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: But, you know.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: But, yeah, it's great.
• 34:52
  Speaker 18: It's great that it worked. Also, it is actually, you know,
• 34:55
  Speaker 18: it's supposed to be set in Boston.
• 34:56
  Speaker 12: It has an amazing cast.
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: It does, yes.
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: Sam Worthington, Britt.
• 35:00
  Speaker 18: Lauer, Milo Ventimiglia.
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 35:02
  Speaker 18: And Harley Coben is just a total giant.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: He's a monster. He's massive now. I don't mean physically.
• 35:07
  Speaker 5: I know he's a big guy.
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: He's well built.
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: Very well built.
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: He's very well built. He's got great arms, Harley Coben.
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: And Jeffrey, I've got to tell you. Justin, in the
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: other studio, you see him there, and he's a big guy,
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: tough guy, full of muscles. And he walks in this morning,
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: he's like, you have no idea. Jeffrey was in burn notice.
• 35:30
  Speaker 6: What was that like for you as a project?
• 35:33
  Speaker 14: Again, I got lucky getting that. An amazing project. We
• 35:37
  Speaker 14: did 113 episodes over 70 years in Miami Beach. The
• 35:40
  Speaker 14: only downside was it was Miami in the summer.
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: Oh, man.
• 35:44
  Speaker 14: And so we shot almost all of it outside during
• 35:48
  Speaker 14: the day because it was the Blue Sky Network. The
• 35:51
  Speaker 14: USA Network was branding as the Blue Sky, so we
• 35:53
  Speaker 14: had to be outside all the time.
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: We talk about burn.
• 35:56
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
• 35:56
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 35:58
  Speaker 7: You noticed my burn.
• 35:59
  Speaker 18: You told me that Donovans are not built for– Not really.
• 36:03
  Speaker 14: Yeah, my white pasty skin did not do well.
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: But it was great.
• 36:06
  Speaker 14: I had an amazing time. And, yeah, and it helped
• 36:11
  Speaker 14: me get so many other things in my career. So
• 36:13
  Speaker 14: I'm very thankful for it.
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: Now, you spent some time on Law & Order, right?
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: Last night, the host of the Emmy Awards was, what's
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: her name?
• 36:23
  Speaker 9: Mariska.
• 36:23
  Speaker 12: It's Mariska.
• 36:25
  Speaker 14: Hargitay.
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: There we go.
• 36:28
  Speaker 6: I'm not allowed to say her name because I mess
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: it up all the time.
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: And I'm sure you do, too, as well, Jeff. No, Mariska,
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: I've got it. Okay, now you're showing off. Hey, you
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: got Donovan.
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: You got Donovan.
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: You're golden.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: No, I actually didn't get Donovan. No, that's all right.
• 36:46
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 36:46
  Speaker 14: Yeah, Mariska Hargitay.
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: She seems like the nicest person on earth. She's a sweetheart.
• 36:50
  Speaker 14: We did a lot of crossover with her, so I
• 36:52
  Speaker 14: shared a lot of screen time with her. I did
• 36:54
  Speaker 14: it for a little over two years, and, yeah, I
• 36:57
  Speaker 14: loved my time there. I'd rather play a Boston cop, though,
• 37:01
  Speaker 14: to be honest, than a New York cop. So it
• 37:05
  Speaker 14: was tough being surrounded by Yankee fans everywhere I went.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Oh, boy.
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: And Jonathan, you've got a giant project that actually starts
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: this coming Sunday, the John Hamm Project.
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: I don't want to call it a John. It's a
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: Jonathan Tucker project.
• 37:19
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: That's right.
• 37:19
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 37:20
  Speaker 18: Well, no, I am an ancillary character in this thing,
• 37:22
  Speaker 18: but it was just one of the first times where
• 37:23
  Speaker 18: I felt like I was a part of a theater
• 37:25
  Speaker 18: troupe because I haven't had the opportunity to do theater,
• 37:28
  Speaker 18: which is what's so exciting about getting to do this
• 37:30
  Speaker 18: project on Thursday and Friday here in Boston with Jeffrey
• 37:33
  Speaker 18: and Stephen. And everybody just knew their role. You know,
• 37:37
  Speaker 18: everybody on this in the cast knew what to do.
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: They all dropped in.
• 37:41
  Speaker 18: And were adding everything they could to this story. Because
• 37:44
  Speaker 18: sometimes in these bigger casts, there's people who just are
• 37:48
  Speaker 18: jockeying for power. And it's just I have no interest
• 37:53
  Speaker 18: in being a part of that in any way, shape,
• 37:55
  Speaker 18: or form. So Jon Hamm sets the most incredible kind
• 38:01
  Speaker 18: of tone at the very top.
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: And then with Giovanni Ribisi and the rest of the cast. Oh,
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: I love him.
• 38:06
  Speaker 18: Everybody in this thing is phenomenal. And it's set in
• 38:09
  Speaker 18: a radio station. It's a true story, a hostage story
• 38:13
  Speaker 18: in 1977, where the hostage taker will only communicate live
• 38:17
  Speaker 18: on the air with the local newscaster named Fred Heckman.
• 38:21
  Speaker 18: This is on MGM +.
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: It's called American Hostage. It starts this Sunday.
• 38:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 38:26
  Speaker 7: It's really fun.
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: And if you like, I mean.
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: Well, it's about radio.
• 38:30
  Speaker 6: And we were all wondering why we didn't get the
• 38:34
  Speaker 6: call from you.
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: I thought it was a huge loss.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: No.
• 38:37
  Speaker 18: I thought it was a huge loss to not have
• 38:39
  Speaker 18: the kiss.
• 38:40
  Speaker 7: Jonathan, you have a radio legend right there.
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: All right, coming down in three, two, one. This is
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: report one for Wednesday.
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: Beautiful.
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: You hear that?
• 38:48
  Speaker 18: And not only does he have the voice and the
• 38:50
  Speaker 18: looks and the smile, but he knows how to work
• 38:52
  Speaker 18: the equipment, which in 1977 was an important aspect.
• 38:56
  Speaker 20: Yes, from the 70s with the big dials and the
• 38:59
  Speaker 20: turntables and the giant T-Act reel-to-reels.
• 39:03
  Speaker 18: You're not just a great voice and a great face.
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: Is it too late to just sneak in a couple
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: of scenes between now and Sunday?
• 39:10
  Speaker 18: I actually can't wait to hear your response to it
• 39:11
  Speaker 18: because for somebody like you, it's going to be really fun.
• 39:14
  Speaker 7: Let's do an audition right now for Bill.
• 39:18
  Speaker 6: Hey, this Saturday night, kids want to wait Budweiser and
• 39:20
  Speaker 6: Oxygen Entertainment.
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: What's wrong with you? I'm trying to conduct a serious
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: interview in here.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: All right, well, we got to wrap up the best
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: of Billy and Lisa in the morning again. It's producer Riley.
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: Thanks for letting me count down the top five moments
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: of the week for you on this Saturday morning, the
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: middle of September. It's really starting to feel like fall
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: out there. The countdown with Billy and Justin is up next.
• 39:42
  Speaker 8: Stick around.
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: They put in a ton of work and you're going
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: to want to hear it.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: Bye, guys.
