• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Hey, good morning. Yeah, call us maybe if you're a doctor.
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: 106.7 Light FM. Cubby and Christine in the morning. Producer
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Kristen producing. And yeah, we did the news a moment
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: ago when we addressed the situation. Christine, you feel okay,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: but you've lost your voice almost.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It feels like it's just out of the blue.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Like it's just gone.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: So here's what I want to talk about. So you
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: were sick Monday and Tuesday. You came back Wednesday. Your
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: voice was fine.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Now, is it possible... You're thinking maybe after your massage
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: that you got yesterday. Yeah. That that could have triggered
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: your voice because you were fine before your massage.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: Explain.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to talk as much as I can because
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: I don't want you to talk a lot.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: I don't understand what happened because I went in. I
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: get these like healing therapeutic massages. They help me a lot.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: And I went in for the massage talking normally. And
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: as soon as we were done, I sounded like this.
• 0:55
  Speaker 5: I don't.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: So I have no idea.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Maybe the massage was that good.
• 1:00
  Speaker 6: You're like, oh. I know, I know.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: But is that possible? Maybe it like released something in
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: your body?
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I'm wondering, yeah.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Or is this a part of your cold you had
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: earlier this week that would have happened anyway, this whole
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: voice part? But that's the question we have if you
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: happen to be somebody in the doctor or medical field.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: I think it, I mean, my theory is like it
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: may have pushed something like we're trying to clear, you know,
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: like because I had been sick with the virus.
• 1:26
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: And maybe we. push something somewhere.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: I have no idea. Well, every time I've gotten a massage,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: the masseuse always says, and you've heard it a million times,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: drink lots of water because you've released toxins in your
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: system and you want to just kind of flush everything out.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Maybe something got flushed in your system.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: But it went to my vocal cords.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Is that possible? That's the question.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: This is crazy. I'm so sorry.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: 1-800-222-1067. The one thing you need to do is not
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: say sorry because we are doing the best we can
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: because we have no backup for you today. And producer Kristen, again,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I don't want to keep rehashing this, but there's some
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: issues there with contracts and stuff like that where she
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: can't speak.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: She's so wonderful too, yes.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: And she's wonderful.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: She'd be perfect. Okay, so tell us about you because
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: you have a big weekend coming up.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't want to sound like I'm complaining, but
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: I'm dreading the long day I have. So listen to
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: all the driving I'm doing today. So I drove here,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: East Brunswick, New Jersey, to Midtown Manhattan. All right, do
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: that every day. We'll wrap up the show, you and me,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: And then I'll go back to East Brunswick. We'll go
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: southbound on the turnpike.
• 2:26
  Speaker 6: Boom.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: And then at 1130, I'm picking up our kids, Naomi
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: and Miles. And then we're driving to Newark. Okay. So
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: back northbound on the turnpike.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: By me.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: By you.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: We're jumping on a quick flight to Dulles because we're
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: going to Lynchburg, Virginia for my niece's wedding. It's on Saturday.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: We thought about driving from East Brunswick to Lynchburg, Virginia,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: but that drive would be over eight and a half hours.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: So we said, There are no direct flights to Lynchburg.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Can we get halfway there, Bon Jovi? So we said Dulles.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: So I'm renting a car in Dulles, and then we're
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: going to drive the rest. We're spending the weekend in Lynchburg, Virginia.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: My niece Ellen is getting married, as I mentioned, and
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: then we're going to be coming back on Monday. So
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Columbus Day, we're all off. I'll be traveling back.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: And hopefully you'll have your voice back.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: I hope so. Congratulations to your niece.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Ellen and Nick.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Aw, how nice.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Somebody's calling. Let's just, you know, live on the edge
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: here and take a live phone call. Hi, are you
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: calling to help Christine?
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Yes, I am. It's so hard to get through to
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: your people. Oh, my goodness. I listen every morning.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: You mean hard to get through as our brain or,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, on the phone? The radio. Oh, my God.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: I dial it a hundred times. It's always a busy signal.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: I don't know how to text.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, well, yeah.
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: I don't want to keep you, so just tell her,
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: gargle every hour with apple cider vinegar and you get
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: your voice back. It's kind of nasty, but it works.

  Speaker 2: I can't even get Alexa to work this morning. That's

  Speaker 4: I don't know why it's always busy.

  Speaker 1: Well, you know what? Sometimes people are always trying to
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: win something, and they think we're about to do a contest,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: so the lines get flooded sometimes.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: Oh, my God.

  Speaker 1: Always.

  Speaker 8: Always.
• 4:39

  Speaker 9: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 5:47
  Speaker 9: Next on Light FM.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 5:50
  Speaker 8: I need to tell you two things.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Cubby and Christine's.
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: Two pretty cool things.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: This is really cool, Christine. Saying these two words makes
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: people like you much more. So here's the back story.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Kids are taught, of course, about the magic phrases please
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: and thank you. Well, research shows it pays to use
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: them throughout life. Specifically, thank you. A study done at
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: the University of New South Wales did a whole study
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: on the phrase thank you. And it proved that these
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: two words provided a, quote, valuable signal that you are
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: someone with whom a high-quality relationship could be formed, end quote.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Thank you goes a long, long way.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Cubby.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: You're welcome, Christine. And for those that just tuned in,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Christine is dealing with a voice on a scale of
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: 1 to 10. You're at a 2. But you're plugging
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: through here.
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: I'm trying.
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: I'm trying.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: And you have a cool thing. I hope it's short.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: I do. Well, Serena Williams has her own Barbie doll.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Serena Williams has her own Barbie doll.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Yes, based on her 2005 Australian Open win. So it
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: was a very iconic event. outfit she was wearing and
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: silver earrings. And the Barbie looks beautiful. It looks like her.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: All right. See, that was short and sweet. The voice
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: is getting better. You're warming up. You're warming up. You know,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: you remind me of, I mean, look.
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: When it's time to change, then it's time to change.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: When Peter Brady's voice was going, they went on with
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the song, Christine. When it's time to change, you've got
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: to rearrange.
• 7:31
  Speaker 9: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 7:34
  Speaker 9: Next on Light FM.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: We have a question for you. It's a controversy. It's
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: 106.7 Light FM with Cubby and Christine in the morning
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: and producer Kristen. And if you just tuned in, full disclosure, Christine,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: not 100% with her voice.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I'm here, but my voice, not so much.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: We're going to get through it together. So here's the deal.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Producer Kristen sent me this TikTok video. There's a viral
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: video of a Los Angeles Dodgers fan refusing to give
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: a foul ball to a young Atlanta Braves fan. It
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: sparked an online debate. While some fellow fans in the
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: stands yelled for him to give it to the child,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: many commenters online kind of came to his defense saying, no,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: he caught a foul ball. You don't catch a foul
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: ball very often. You keep it. Should he have given
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: it to the kid? Now, Kristen sent the video to
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: you and me, Christine.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: And when I first saw it, you know, the guy
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that caught it must be maybe 20.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a young guy, yes.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: He's still young.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: And when I first saw it, I'm like, ah, you
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: know what?
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: Keep it.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: But then they panned to the kid.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: To the kid.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: And the kid is the cutest kid in the world.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: I know, and he's so sad.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: And he's not, yeah, he's not crying, but you could
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: tell he's very disappointed.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: So here's, I don't know if the audio will do
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: it justice, but here's the audio of the whole thing.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: This is after the Dodgers fan caught the ball and
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: the crowd is screaming, you know, give it to the kid. Anyway,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: so he says, I'm sorry, I feel bad. I'm not
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: giving it to the kid. And he never gave it
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: to the kid.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: He didn't look nasty about it.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: No.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: He just looked genuinely excited that he caught the ball.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: And I don't think he blocked it. the kid in
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: order to get it.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Like we didn't see, we didn't see that part. We
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: don't know if there was a fight for the ball
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: or anything, but I don't think there was.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Because I think that the little one is so little.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: I don't think he could, he could have even tried.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: So whose side are you on?
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: So I kind of feel for the guy who caught
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: the ball.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Because I've been to many baseball games. I've never
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: been close to a foul ball.
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: But here's what I think should happen. This is my
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: personal opinion. I think the, this happened in Atlanta, I believe.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: I think it happened in Atlanta or did it happen
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: in L.A.? It's a Los Angeles Dodgers fan refusing to
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: give up. Oh, Kristen, tell me, where did this happen again?
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Can you just tell me where it happened? Atlanta. Atlanta,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: thank you. It happened in Atlanta. So I think, here's
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: my thought. The Atlanta Braves should sign a baseball and
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: find this kid and give the kid a sign. Do
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: a step above catching a foul ball. Get a signed
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: ball and find the kid and give that to the kid.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: That way all the fans, you're trying to keep all
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: the fans happy.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Because like I said, that guy didn't seem nasty about it.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: He just seemed so enthusiastic that he caught the ball.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: So I kind of don't want to take it from them.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: And, you know, the fact that the game is in
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Atlanta and this is a Dodger fan, so people are
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: going to come down harder on a Dodger fan in Atlanta.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: So maybe that's my take on it. Your take, you
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: can hit us up at 44363. I think the Braves
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: should step in and say, here, kid, we'll do better
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: than just a foul ball. We'll get you a signed
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: team ball. We're coming right back. Give us your reaction.
• 10:41
  Speaker 9: More Cubby and Christine. And the great music variety you expect.
• 10:45
  Speaker 9: Next on Light FM.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: 7.07 at Light FM with Cubby and Christine in the morning.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: A very happy Friday to you. So if you want
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: to see Harry Styles during his residency at the Garden,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: it's very simple. You listen to Light FM on that
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: free iHeartRadio app. You'll see a red microphone right there.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: you can send us a message and tell us why
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: you need to see Harry Styles. We've been doing it
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks. Well, last week we gave
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: out some tickets, and this week we're doing it again.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: We will listen to a message right now from our
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Talk Back feature, and then we'll try to get that
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: person on the phone.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: Hi.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: Mine is Natalia, and me and my mom listen to
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: your radio every day, and we really enjoy it, and
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: it makes us laugh a lot and have a good morning.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: I heard you're giving out free tickets to Harry Styles,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: and I want to see if I can win it
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: for my older sister Valerie because she's been going through
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: a really hard time lately. She's a teacher, and she
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: has a lot to handle, and giving her these tickets
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: would be the best thing ever. Thank you.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: That was the talkback we received. Now let's try to
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: get this person on the phone and tell her the
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: good news.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: Hello?
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, hi there.
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: Who's this?
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: Arlene, how are you?
• 11:56

• 17:09
  Speaker 1: the house.
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: Hey, good morning. Thank you. Thank you so much.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: A couple years ago you were here, right?
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: Yes, yes, I was here. Yeah, I had a great experience.
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: You guys were great. And I'm so glad. I'm very
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: happy to see you guys again.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're happy to see you too.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: So we have a lot to talk about. And before
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: we get to what you're really here for, we can't
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: not bring this up. So the Yankees season came to
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: an end a couple of nights ago. Give us your thoughts, please,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Bernie Williams.
• 17:35
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, from a player standpoint, obviously very disappointed.
• 17:39
  Speaker 7: I know we cannot be more disappointed than the players themselves.
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: They worked so hard during the course of the season,
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: you know, to get to that moment and then just
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: to be swept by, you know, the Tampa Bay Rays.
• 17:55
  Speaker 7: We got to give them credit. They have played great
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: through the whole year. I wish we had all our
• 18:01
  Speaker 7: cylinders working with judging and all our full force. But
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: these games have to be win or loss. And I
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: think it's going to give them a lot of ammunition
• 18:14
  Speaker 7: to work with for next year. I think there's going
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: to be a lot of changes. There has to be
• 18:17
  Speaker 7: a lot of changes.
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: Uh, happening.
• 18:19
  Speaker 7: Uh, but, uh, you know, Yankees are the Yankees. They'll
• 18:21
  Speaker 7: find a way to, you know, get back to, you know,
• 18:23
  Speaker 7: where they, they should be in my estimation. And, uh, yeah,
• 18:27
  Speaker 7: I mean, it was disappointed, but, uh, still, you know, baseball, uh, and, uh,
• 18:31
  Speaker 7: there's a lot more baseball to play and, uh, but
• 18:33
  Speaker 7: I'm really disappointed that the Yankees didn't make it any further.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Do you still feel like you play when they lose? Like,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: do you still feel like.
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: Like as a player?
• 18:39
  Speaker 7: My heart starts racing, you know, butterflies, you know, yeah, yeah.
• 18:42
  Speaker 7: Once you start, even when, uh, Fall started, you know,
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: the temperature started getting a little colder. I started feeling like, oh, man,
• 18:51
  Speaker 7: I don't fit on it anymore. But, yeah, you always
• 18:56
  Speaker 7: want to play. Your mind is always getting you there,
• 18:59
  Speaker 7: especially at this time of the year. I feel very
• 19:02
  Speaker 7: fortunate to be part of those teams that won because
• 19:04
  Speaker 7: it's so hard to do. So, yeah, it is a process,
• 19:08
  Speaker 7: and I think they're going to be ready next year.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: Well, thank you for your take. We had to address that.
• 19:11
  Speaker 8: I did want to ask your advice for the fans because–
• 19:14
  Speaker 8: You know, the way you said you were feeling it
• 19:15
  Speaker 8: in your heart. We have so many Yankee fans, especially
• 19:18
  Speaker 8: in my family, and they take it really hard.
• 19:20
  Speaker 6: Absolutely.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: I feel for them. You know, I'm one of them.
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: So what do we do?
• 19:26
  Speaker 8: You say just look forward to next year?
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: Well, yeah, it is one of those things. I mean,
• 19:31
  Speaker 7: baseball is a great game, great sport. And I think,
• 19:34
  Speaker 7: you know, it's good that we have this, you know,
• 19:37
  Speaker 7: thing that we can look forward to next year.
• 19:39
  Speaker 6: You know, what that's going to bring. I know it's
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: hard now to take.
• 19:42
  Speaker 7: Because we've put so much interest and so many resources
• 19:45
  Speaker 7: into and invested so much you know, emotionally in this.
• 19:49
  Speaker 7: But there's always next year, you know, ask the Cubs.
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's true, that's true.
• 19:54
  Speaker 7: And, you know, at some point the Red Sox would
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: ask that, you know, many years ago. But it's a
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: great game, and I think, you know, it keeps the
• 20:02
  Speaker 7: fan base, you know, kind of motivated to see what's
• 20:05
  Speaker 7: going to happen next year. I think the true Yankee
• 20:06
  Speaker 7: fans are never going to leave the team.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: No.
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: But there's a lot of people, myself included, that are very,
• 20:12
  Speaker 7: very disappointed this morning.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Are you okay with it?
• 20:15
  Speaker 8: We just wanted to ask you, you know how there's
• 20:16
  Speaker 8: always a celebration, you know, when the Yanks beat the
• 20:19
  Speaker 8: Red Sox.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: They celebrate with champagne.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Well, every playoff round, there's champagne.
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Is that the whammy, or is that okay?
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Should you celebrate after every playoff round?
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: I think so.
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: No, no, I think every step of the way you
• 20:35
  Speaker 7: should celebrate because you never know if you're going to
• 20:37
  Speaker 7: make it to the next one. So I think, you know,
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: for players, they start putting a lot of, you know,
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: emotional investment. Their body is going through, you know, ringer
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: from spring training and even before in the offseason. So
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: every level that you get, you get, you know, this
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: sort of thing. OK, we accomplished this and it should
• 20:55
  Speaker 7: be celebrated. Not too much because the ultimate goal is
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: the ultimate goal to go into the World Series. But
• 21:01
  Speaker 7: I think it should be celery because you never know
• 21:03
  Speaker 7: if you're going to get to the next level or not.
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: Was it real.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Champagne for you or the non-alcoholic? Because I know they
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: have both.
• 21:07
  Speaker 6: Do you remember? Yeah, well, that should give you a
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: clue into my response. No, I don't remember.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: So it was real champagne.
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: It must have been a real thing, yeah. All right.
• 21:19
  Speaker 8: Well, are you going to be popping champagne on Broadway?
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: You're making your Broadway debut in Buena Vista Social Club.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Congratulations.
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: I am so excited. You know, it's in so many levels.
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: I grew up listening to the music that has been
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: played at the show for so many years. It just
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: brings me back to when I was a kid and
• 21:38
  Speaker 7: my mom used to put the radio on on Sunday
• 21:40
  Speaker 7: afternoons and we played like dominoes and we had a
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: glass of wine. Well, I couldn't because I was a child,
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: but I remember them having a nice glass of wine
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: and listening to that music.
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: And when I.
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: First saw the show, I started getting choked up. And
• 21:59
  Speaker 7: the only thing that in my mind was, you know,
• 22:01
  Speaker 7: I wish my parents were here to see this because
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: they would have a great time. So I am really
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: invested in this, you know, in their honor. There were
• 22:09
  Speaker 7: the ones that put me into baseball and music. And
• 22:13
  Speaker 7: I would have loved for them to see this moment.
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: But I'm sure that they're looking down and saying, hey,
• 22:19
  Speaker 7: I told you. I told you he was going to
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: make it. So I'm really excited about it. The opportunity
• 22:24
  Speaker 7: came to me. Out of nowhere, Luis Miranda, obviously, Lee
• 22:28
  Speaker 7: Manuel's dad, we have this great commonality. We grew up
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: in the same town in Puerto Rico. And I think, obviously,
• 22:37
  Speaker 7: he is the most famous Vega Alta resident that has
• 22:43
  Speaker 7: sort of made it. But he gave me a call
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: maybe about a few months ago. And he said to me, hey, Bernie,
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: we are, you know, producing this show that has been
• 22:55
  Speaker 7: very successful, the Buena Vista Social Club. And I think,
• 22:58
  Speaker 7: you know, they're thinking about you as being part of it.
• 23:01
  Speaker 7: Would you be, you know, would you be interested in it?
• 23:03
  Speaker 7: And it's like, whoa, man, this is amazing. Do not
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: threaten me with a good time.
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: Are you kidding me? This is a great opportunity. It
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: was a quick yes. It was, yeah, the short answer
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: is it was a quick yes.
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: And it's just been, you know, so delightful to meet,
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: you know, the cast and the, You know, the musicians and,
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: you know, the crew has been such an amazing experience.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: You know, you've had two, actually you've had so many
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: different careers when you think about it. You've been under
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: pressure with baseball, now music. Which one has probably taught
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: you more about dealing with nerves?
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: I think probably baseball. And this is why.
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: I mean, in music, you practice, you put a lot
• 23:41
  Speaker 7: of work in. and you do the things that you
• 23:45
  Speaker 7: need to do to prepare, and you pretty much get
• 23:48
  Speaker 7: out what you put in. Baseball, on the other hand,
• 23:51
  Speaker 7: imagine all these players practicing and working out so hard,
• 23:57
  Speaker 7: and when you step on the plate and you go
• 23:59
  Speaker 7: into the game, you never know the outcome.
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: You never know what's going to happen.
• 24:04
  Speaker 7: So that is that uncertainty that is always there in
• 24:06
  Speaker 7: the back of your mind. It could be great, but
• 24:08
  Speaker 7: it could be less than great. So that's the part
• 24:11
  Speaker 7: that really gives you the pressure because as much as
• 24:14
  Speaker 7: you can prepare, you can never prepare to what's going
• 24:17
  Speaker 7: to happen. So you really wish that is the best outcome,
• 24:21
  Speaker 7: but you never know. So I think that puts a
• 24:23
  Speaker 7: lot of extra pressure on the players.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: It's a good answer.
• 24:25
  Speaker 8: And also with theater, it's the same in the sense
• 24:28
  Speaker 8: that it's community. It's happening right there in that moment.
• 24:32
  Speaker 8: I think you're bonding with the other musicians.
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: The audience.
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: I mean, I would imagine that it would be a
• 24:37
  Speaker 7: little bit more pressure, but still. It's a situation where
• 24:43
  Speaker 7: you have to kind of rely on your preparation in
• 24:48
  Speaker 7: both disciplines and to let it go and see what happens.
• 24:52
  Speaker 7: But I think the outcome is a little bit more
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: predictable in theater or maybe music. I mean, I don't
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: have the experience of doing theater yet, but I would
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: presume that it's a little bit more controlled. than not
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: even know what's going to happen. You know, you step
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: out on that plate, you know, somebody throwing 99, 100
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: miles an hour, you can hit, you know, the ball,
• 25:12
  Speaker 7: you can strike out, you know, but at the end
• 25:14
