- 5:13Speaker 6: you can send DMs. You can leave talkbacks.
- 5:16Speaker 1: People are always asking.
- 5:17Speaker 3: I am a huge fan. Just wondering, how do we
- 5:23Speaker 3: call in to recommend a topic or do we just
- 5:26Speaker 3: do a talkback?
- 5:27Speaker 6: You can leave a talkback or you can leave a
- 5:29Speaker 6: DM like the one Lisa has.
- 5:31Speaker 4: Right. Do you want me to read it, guys?
- 5:32Speaker 1: Let's go. Okay.
- 5:33Speaker 4: Hey, Billy and Lisa, I need some help. Recently, my
- 5:36Speaker 4: boyfriend has been texting his work colleague at night while
- 5:40Speaker 4: we are in bed. I asked him last night about it,
- 5:42Speaker 4: and he explained it was his colleague who was going
- 5:45Speaker 4: through a separation. He said he was just trying to
- 5:48Speaker 4: help her through it. I am not sure how comfortable
- 5:50Speaker 4: I feel with it. And also, doesn't she have girlfriends
- 5:54Speaker 4: and other people she can talk to? I trust him,
- 5:56Speaker 4: but I've heard of affairs starting this way at work,
- 5:58Speaker 4: and I'm nervous about it. Am I being crazy? Please
- 6:01Speaker 4: help me. Love the show, by the way.
- 6:03Speaker 1: Thank you. It's a red flag.
- 6:05Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's a little strange.
- 6:06Speaker 6: A little bit of a red flag. Well, we're talking
- 6:08Speaker 6: about a work wife. That's what we're talking about.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:11Speaker 6: The work wife.
- 6:13Speaker 1: But like at bedtime, like middle of the night, if
- 6:15Speaker 1: you're off in another room exchanging texts, it's a little odd.
- 6:19Speaker 1: A little bit. A little bit.
- 6:21Speaker 6: Just saying. I like the point about, you know, doesn't
- 6:23Speaker 6: she have girlfriends she can text?
- 6:25Speaker 4: Right. And then like the middle of the night.
- 6:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:28Speaker 4: It's a little strange. It's a little bit of a
- 6:30Speaker 4: red flag.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Well, feel free to send us a talk back. You're
- 6:33Speaker 1: dealing with this sort of thing. Late night exchange of texts.
- 6:37Speaker 6: I feel like I've heard this story before.
- 6:39Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 6:39Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 6:40Speaker 6: And sometimes it ends not good.
- 6:42Speaker 4: Whether it's smoke, there's fire. From the Planet Fitness Kiss
- 6:45Speaker 4: 108 studios, we're back with Billy and Lisa in the morning.
- 6:50Speaker 1: And welcome back, everybody. A happy Wednesday to you. Going
- 6:53Speaker 1: to be warm today, at least 70, maybe warmer, right, Lisa?
- 6:55Speaker 4: Yes, but you'll see a lot of clouds around, maybe
- 6:57Speaker 4: some breaks of sun later.
- 6:58Speaker 1: But yeah, warm. Ah, well, there you have it. So
- 7:01Speaker 1: Calvin Harris is back. He's launching a full-on North American tour,
- 7:06Speaker 1: and the tour kicks off here in Boston, the TD Garden,
- 7:10Speaker 1: April 1st of next year. April Fool's Day, the TD Garden.
- 7:17Speaker 6: Yeah, we were in meetings yesterday. We have a concert calendar,
- 7:19Speaker 6: and I looked up at all the shows, and I
- 7:21Speaker 6: saw Calvin. I was like, he's back.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Well, let's face it. He's had a lot of hits
- 7:26Speaker 1: just now. A lot.
- 7:27Speaker 11: A lot.
- 7:33Speaker 6: God, the guy's like a hit machine. Bob, you're tired
- 7:43Speaker 6: this morning. You're not going to be tired anymore.
- 7:44Speaker 1: Yeah, wake up.
- 7:45Speaker 6: That's for sure.
- 7:46Speaker 1: Wake up. And that drop happens. It's like everything's going
- 7:50Speaker 1: to be okay.
- 7:53Speaker 6: He's got to be the king of the drops.
- 7:54Speaker 4: I think so, right?
- 7:55Speaker 11: Right?
- 7:55Speaker 6: Oh, God, I can keep going all day on this.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Oh, let's keep going. When I met you in the summer.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Love that song. So my heart beat sound. What was
- 8:05Speaker 1: the one he did, Lisa?
- 8:05Speaker 6: I know you love it with Migos. What's that one?
- 8:08Speaker 6: I think it's, is it Slide?
- 8:10Speaker 12: Yeah, Slide.
- 8:10Speaker 1: I think it's Slide.
- 8:13Speaker 5: I love this.
- 8:15Speaker 1: This is a good one.
- 8:17Speaker 6: That's a summer song.
- 8:18Speaker 4: And then he did it with This Is What You
- 8:20Speaker 4: Came For.
- 8:21Speaker 6: Oh, yes, yes, yes. I don't have that one.
- 8:23Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
- 8:24Speaker 11: Wow.
- 8:24Speaker 1: That's a good one.
- 8:25Speaker 4: It was rumored that Taylor was a part of that
- 8:28Speaker 4: whole song process.
- 8:29Speaker 5: She was.
- 8:29Speaker 2: Yeah, that's confirmed now.
- 8:31Speaker 6: Oh, really?
- 8:31Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 8:32Speaker 4: Yeah, she was on it.
- 8:33Speaker 6: Well, they dated.
- 8:35Speaker 4: They did.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Well, she's a part of his history now.
- 8:38Speaker 6: Yeah, but then there was a little mishap.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Well, there was a little massage parlor. I think it
- 8:44Speaker 1: was in London. If I'm not mistaken.
- 8:47Speaker 6: I'm not sure. But yeah, he got caught in a
- 8:51Speaker 6: masseuse situation.
- 8:52Speaker 1: So he's been doing a lot of festivals. Actually broke
- 8:56Speaker 1: the record for largest attendance for a DJ set in
- 9:00Speaker 1: beautiful Sao Paulo, Brazil. 1.6 million people there at the festival.
- 9:07Speaker 6: He draws huge crowds.
- 9:09Speaker 1: I mean, listen to the songs. Why wouldn't he? I know.
- 9:12Speaker 4: One kiss with Dua Lipa.
- 9:13Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 9:14Speaker 6: Oh, we got that. We'll get to that in a minute.
- 9:15Speaker 6: There's a story there.
- 9:16Speaker 11: Okay.
- 9:17Speaker 1: But he's been a longtime friend of Kiss Him On
- 9:19Speaker 1: The Way, and he did our Jingle Ball in 2014.
- 9:25Speaker 1: And Lisa, we talked backstage. When you started out, could
- 9:28Speaker 1: you have imagined things going as well as they have
- 9:31Speaker 1: for you? No, no way. I couldn't even imagine coming
- 9:34Speaker 1: to America. I'm from Scotland.
- 9:35Speaker 8: I know.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Just doing shows here is enough.
- 9:38Speaker 12: But something like this is insane.
- 9:40Speaker 1: It's great. So what do you think was the changing
- 9:43Speaker 1: moment when it all kind of turned and just blossomed
- 9:46Speaker 1: for you?
- 9:47Speaker 12: I mean, it feels like we found love when I
- 9:51Speaker 12: made that record with Rihanna. A lot of people started
- 9:54Speaker 12: maybe investigating what I did in the past and then
- 9:56Speaker 12: radio started playing Feel So Close after that and things,
- 9:59Speaker 12: you know, I kept making songs and the radio kept
- 10:02Speaker 12: playing them. And I think that's how people got to
- 10:05Speaker 12: know who I was and what kind of music I made.
- 10:07Speaker 1: And don't forget, Lisa called it. He had this collaboration
- 10:11Speaker 1: with Dua Lipa.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Falling in love with me.
- 10:13Speaker 1: Possibilities.
- 10:15Speaker 4: I look like all you need.
- 10:17Speaker 6: That's 2018 that song came out.
- 10:20Speaker 5: That's a jam.
- 10:21Speaker 1: And it was in 2018 that Dua Lipa headlined our
- 10:25Speaker 1: Kiss concert and said, working with Calvin Harris. What's her dream?
- 10:30Speaker 1: We talk backstage.
- 10:31Speaker 5: Every time somebody would ask me, you know, who's someone
- 10:33Speaker 5: that you would love to collaborate with, I feel like
- 10:34Speaker 5: I've really put it out into the world.
- 10:36Speaker 4: I kept going, oh, I'd love to work with Calvin Harris.
- 10:38Speaker 5: I'd love to work with Calvin Harris in the hopes
- 10:40Speaker 5: that he might actually hear it.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Oh, so every time you were asked, he was always
- 10:44Speaker 1: top on your list?
- 10:44Speaker 2: He was, yeah, he was up there.
- 10:47Speaker 1: Well, it kind of worked, didn't it? It did.
- 10:48Speaker 2: It's kind of, it's like.
- 10:49Speaker 5: A way of manifesting things into your life. And yeah,
- 10:53Speaker 5: he's an artist that I just really love and admire.
- 10:55Speaker 5: And I think he's a brilliant songwriter and a brilliant
- 10:57Speaker 5: producer as well. And I feel so lucky to have
- 11:00Speaker 5: gotten the chance to work with him and do a.
- 11:01Speaker 1: Song like that. And is it one kiss all it takes? Really? Yeah.
- 11:06Speaker 1: Take it easy, Bill. Lisa, I know what you're thinking.
- 11:10Speaker 1: I can read your face. You're sitting right next to me.
- 11:13Speaker 1: You're thinking, was that the interview with the boots?
- 11:17Speaker 4: I think it was.
- 11:18Speaker 1: It was. Can you confirm it, Justin? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 11:21Speaker 6: So it was that interview that before Dua Lipa came out,
- 11:24Speaker 6: her manager came to me and said, Do is good
- 11:27Speaker 6: to talk about anything, music, performing. just not the boots
- 11:31Speaker 6: that she's wearing. Do not talk about the boots. So
- 11:35Speaker 6: I went to Billy. We had a little huddle before
- 11:37Speaker 6: she came out, and I told him. He said, yeah,
- 11:39Speaker 6: no problem. So then Dua Lipa comes out with these
- 11:42Speaker 6: boots that are like all the way up to her
- 11:44Speaker 6: hips almost.
- 11:45Speaker 4: Yeah, they were knee-high.
- 11:45Speaker 6: Yeah, and here comes Uncle Bill.
- 11:47Speaker 1: Before we do anything, can you just step to your
- 11:50Speaker 1: left a little bit? You cannot wear boots like that.
- 11:52Speaker 6: So at that moment, I froze, and I see someone
- 11:56Speaker 6: waving at me, and it's the manager saying, and he's
- 11:59Speaker 6: doing like the cutthroat thing to me, like you're dead.
- 12:02Speaker 1: Out of the world, see.
- 12:03Speaker 2: Oh, that's very kind. They are very shining.
- 12:06Speaker 1: And I'm going to ask the corny question, who are
- 12:08Speaker 1: you wearing?
- 12:09Speaker 2: Do you know what?
- 12:11Speaker 11: I don't really know.
- 12:12Speaker 6: I was told that. That was why. She got weird, yeah.
- 12:15Speaker 6: She had no partnership with the brand.
- 12:16Speaker 4: No, she had purchased them herself, and that's why she
- 12:19Speaker 4: didn't want to give anyone credit.
- 12:20Speaker 6: Unbelievable.
- 12:21Speaker 4: And then he throws me under the bus.
- 12:22Speaker 1: I know. Oh, that's what he does.
- 12:24Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 12:25Speaker 1: Because he knew he was going to get in trouble.
- 12:27Speaker 4: My colleague Lisa Donovan over there would like to know
- 12:30Speaker 4: where she can purchase them.
- 12:31Speaker 1: He gave the full government name. Right.
- 12:33Speaker 11: Oh, man.
- 12:33Speaker 4: You know what I love about this, though? Calvin Harris
- 12:36Speaker 4: is coming to Boston April 1st.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Yes.
- 12:39Speaker 4: Mayor Wu announced like last week that they're doing a
- 12:42Speaker 4: Tartan Army week in April of next year.
- 12:45Speaker 1: And he's Scottish. And he's Scottish.
- 12:46Speaker 4: So he's kicking it off.
- 12:47Speaker 1: He's going to be part of the Tartan Army. Yes.
- 12:50Speaker 4: This is amazing.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Oh, she's going to go.
- 12:51Speaker 6: She has to go to the garden. She has to.
- 12:53Speaker 1: Well, they're. There was a point in Calvin Harris' career
- 12:58Speaker 1: where he kind of got a little weird. Do we
- 13:01Speaker 1: have that clip, Justin? Yeah, his diet got kind of strange.
- 13:04Speaker 12: I went full carnivore, like Texan, why eat vegetables when
- 13:09Speaker 12: you can have testicles kind of thing, you know?
- 13:13Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 13:14Speaker 12: And this is the product of that.
- 13:16Speaker 1: I got Charlie Puth.
- 13:18Speaker 12: Taking crushed up ants from China to get him hyped up.
- 13:22Speaker 12: So he sounded like Michael McDonald on this record. Like,
- 13:24Speaker 12: this is why, this is what's going on.
- 13:27Speaker 1: By the way, that wasn't a joke.
- 13:30Speaker 11: No.
- 13:30Speaker 1: He got Charlie Puth to eat ants. Here's Charlie. I
- 13:34Speaker 1: no longer drink coffee. I eat ants for energy.
- 13:39Speaker 6: Yeah, this was a weird moment. We covered this on
- 13:42Speaker 6: the show. I don't know what was going on there.
- 13:47Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, but Calvin Harris, man, he's a hit machine
- 13:50Speaker 1: for sure.
- 13:51Speaker 8: Good morning.
- 13:51Speaker 4: I missed the first part of that segment, but.
- 13:54Speaker 11: The music that was coming out was amazing. Way to
- 13:59Speaker 11: get my morning started.
- 14:01Speaker 10: Thank you so much.
- 14:04Speaker 4: Have a great day.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Hey, welcome.
- 14:10Speaker 6: Oh God, looking at so many, so many songs.
- 14:14Speaker 1: This is going to be a great show.
- 14:16Speaker 4: We have to go.
- 14:17Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 14:17Speaker 1: April 1st, right?
- 14:18Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 14:19Speaker 1: All right.
- 14:19Speaker 6: He's going to do an interview with Bill.
- 14:21Speaker 1: Here's another story behind the scenes. Calvin Harris wasn't going
- 14:24Speaker 1: to talk to anybody. He heard I was here. He said,
- 14:26Speaker 1: I want to do the interview with Billy Costa. No,
- 14:30Speaker 1: wait a minute. I was not hyperbolizing. That was a
- 14:33Speaker 1: real situation backstage. He's not doing any interviews, but he'll
- 14:37Speaker 1: do Billy.
- 14:37Speaker 4: I love that, Billy.
- 14:38Speaker 6: Did that really happen?
- 14:39Speaker 1: Yeah. What did we learn? Never listen to the manager people.
- 14:43Speaker 3: No, no.
- 14:43Speaker 1: Of the artist, okay? Just do your own thing.
- 14:46Speaker 4: Although we love the managers of all of the artists, right?
- 14:49Speaker 1: But weren't they trying to run a roadblock in front
- 14:51Speaker 1: of you with Jason Tatum the other night, Lisa?
- 14:53Speaker 11: No.
- 14:53Speaker 1: And you just went over and got your own.
- 14:55Speaker 4: No, there were no roadblocks.
- 14:56Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 14:57Speaker 6: No, sometimes they just want to control what's being asked.
- 14:59Speaker 1: Right.
- 15:00Speaker 6: And Billy never listened. I shouldn't have even said anything.
- 15:02Speaker 6: If I never said anything to him about the boots-
- 15:05Speaker 6: He wouldn't have brought them up. It's the fact that
- 15:06Speaker 6: I brought them up.
- 15:08Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I would have jumped right
- 15:09Speaker 1: on the boots. Probably.
- 15:10Speaker 4: They were fantastic.
- 15:11Speaker 1: They were outrageous.
- 15:12Speaker 4: It was the entire outfit.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Yeah, you couldn't look away.
- 15:15Speaker 4: By the way, they were Saint Laurent boots above the knee.
- 15:19Speaker 1: I'd say. Ballpark. Ballpark on those. How much? Oh, thousands.
- 15:25Speaker 6: Yeah, they were up to our chin.
- 15:26Speaker 1: Yeah. He went way up. We wanted to see more
- 15:30Speaker 1: of Dua Lipa. She was hidden inside the booth.
- 15:35Speaker 6: Hey, we love Calvin Harris. So many hits, right, Bill?
- 15:38Speaker 1: Oh, so many.
- 15:39Speaker 6: We should go to the show, get an interview with him,
- 15:41Speaker 6: you know? That would be good.
- 15:42Speaker 1: Let's do that. What? No, he's always been a fun interview. Yeah,
- 15:47Speaker 1: he's a good interview.
- 15:53Speaker 12: The Candid Microphone, the program that brings you the honest
- 15:56Speaker 12: reactions of ordinary people.
- 15:58Speaker 5: Stop.
- 15:59Speaker 10: Secretly recorded.
- 16:00Speaker 1: No one ever.
- 16:01Speaker 6: You think after this, he'll do an interview?
- 16:03Speaker 4: No, let's listen.
- 16:05Speaker 1: Who knows when he's talking into the Candid Microphone. So
- 16:08Speaker 1: you know what? I'm saying, hey, Calvin, interview me.
- 16:12Speaker 12: Okay?
- 16:12Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 16:13Speaker 1: In fact, while you're at it. Okay, Calvin is a
- 16:18Speaker 1: nerd out of the suburbs of Scotland. He wants to
- 16:21Speaker 1: go out of his way to make sure you know
- 16:23Speaker 1: he doesn't want to be there. Now, the entertainment update
- 16:26Speaker 1: with Billy Costa on Kiss 108.
- 16:27Speaker 4: Okay, we've got Jingle Ball tickets right now for caller 25, 877-617-1108.
- 16:30Speaker 4: The number to call the Jingle Ball completely sold out.
- 16:32Speaker 1: And by the way, Sold out faster than ever. You'll
- 16:47Speaker 1: need the key word, and the key word, Lisa, this
- 16:50Speaker 1: morning will be homewrecker. Homewrecker is the key word. And
- 16:56Speaker 1: that's the key word because Somber's homewrecker, the song, just
- 16:59Speaker 1: went platinum.
- 17:00Speaker 4: Wow.
- 17:01Speaker 1: It just went platinum last night, in fact. And he's
- 17:05Speaker 1: coming in for Jingle Ball, and he just released a
- 17:08Speaker 1: behind-the-scenes of him actually making that song.
- 17:12Speaker 11: Ooh.
- 17:23Speaker 4: That's my favorite somber song.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Very cool.
- 17:26Speaker 4: I love that song.
- 17:27Speaker 6: That's why Taylor Swift loves him so much, because he's
- 17:29Speaker 6: a real musician.
- 17:30Speaker 1: He is.
- 17:30Speaker 6: Writes all his own music. He did that in his bedroom,
- 17:33Speaker 6: if you watch it. Looks like a bedroom.
- 17:34Speaker 1: Yeah, that was really an inside piece there. I like
- 17:37Speaker 1: how he was.
- 17:37Speaker 6: Humming it along.
- 17:38Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 17:39Speaker 6: Too bad Bill's humming never led to anything, you know?
- 17:49Speaker 1: That's Thriller, right? It is.
- 17:51Speaker 6: Who doesn't know it?
- 17:52Speaker 3: It is.
- 17:52Speaker 1: Marshall would have been proud. Good catch, Bill.
- 17:55Speaker 4: Didn't we do, like, Guess the Hum?
- 17:57Speaker 13: Oh, yeah.
- 17:57Speaker 6: We had a game. We should bring that back.
- 18:00Speaker 1: That was hilarious. Oh, back to reality. Olivia Rodrigo is
- 18:05Speaker 1: in Boston this week for her completely sold-out shows, three
- 18:08Speaker 1: of them, and the double play is still going on.
- 18:12Speaker 1: Just yesterday, she announced a new remix of her song, Expectations,
- 18:16Speaker 1: with Chapel Roan. That's coming out tomorrow. This was the original.
- 18:21Speaker 1: They were playing a lot of head-bopping music this morning.
- 18:28Speaker 4: That's very cute.
- 18:29Speaker 1: All of her songs have that kind of head-bop. He did.
- 18:31Speaker 6: Vibe to it.
- 18:32Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Well, don't forget, Olivia and Chapel Roan have
- 18:36Speaker 1: toured together. Chapel Roan was part of Olivia's Daisy Chain
- 18:38Speaker 1: Festival this past summer.
- 18:40Speaker 11: Yes.
- 18:40Speaker 1: That was an incredible festival. Mm-hmm. Oh, my God. So
- 18:44Speaker 1: that's going on. But also, Tate McRae's new song, Housewife,
- 18:48Speaker 1: comes out this Friday. And I'm going to assume, Justin,
- 18:52Speaker 1: you will have it as part of your new music
- 18:54Speaker 1: Friday this coming Friday?
- 18:55Speaker 6: Yeah, we'll be playing it for sure. I heard it's good.
- 18:59Speaker 1: Well, she says she still gets stage fright when performing. Really?
- 19:03Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 19:03Speaker 1: And when she gets stage fright, I found this interesting. Yes.
- 19:07Speaker 1: She just imagines Michael Jackson standing next to her. No way.
- 19:17Speaker 6: Is that what she hears, you think?
- 19:18Speaker 4: I actually love that for her.
- 19:19Speaker 10: Right?
- 19:22Speaker 1: Boy, that kind of fit, didn't it?
- 19:24Speaker 11: It does.
- 19:24Speaker 1: This show really writes itself.
- 19:26Speaker 6: It really does.
- 19:26Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 19:27Speaker 1: Amazing.
- 19:28Speaker 4: But I love that she gets, like, strength from him.
- 19:31Speaker 1: From Michael?
- 19:31Speaker 4: I just watched the movie Michael.
- 19:33Speaker 1: That's a great movie.
- 19:34Speaker 4: It's such a good movie.
- 19:35Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:35Speaker 6: Well, it can be motivational.
- 19:37Speaker 4: Come on, girl!
- 19:38Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
- 19:38Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Oh, don't forget, at our Jingle Ball, she actually talked
- 19:41Speaker 1: about Boston being haunted. Check this out.
- 19:44Speaker 7: My brother goes to Dartmouth to school, and it's in
- 19:46Speaker 7: a place called Hanover near Boston.
- 19:48Speaker 2: And this is... there's literally two hotels there.
- 19:51Speaker 7: And I go, we were like staying there with my
- 19:54Speaker 7: family and it was like New Year's and it was
- 19:55Speaker 7: my mom and dad. And I literally wake up in
- 19:58Speaker 7: the middle of the night screaming because I always wake
- 20:01Speaker 7: up screaming. Like I'm like, I'm like possessed in my sleep.
- 20:04Speaker 7: And my dad was like, oh my God, hey, like what's,
- 20:06Speaker 7: what's going on? He's like, just go to sleep, go
- 20:08Speaker 7: to sleep.
- 20:08Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, no, he's right there. Wow. She
- 20:12Speaker 1: wakes up screaming in the night.
- 20:14Speaker 4: She has night terrors.
- 20:15Speaker 1: That must be a lot of fun. I know, right?
- 20:18Speaker 4: You got to keep one eye open if you're sleeping
- 20:20Speaker 4: next to her. And her brother went to Dartmouth.
- 20:24Speaker 11: Wow.
- 20:25Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 20:25Speaker 4: That's cool.
- 20:26Speaker 1: Connections, so to speak. We mentioned Michael Jackson. Just enough.
- 20:30Speaker 1: This is so cool. There's a documentary on the way
- 20:35Speaker 1: that shines the light. on Michael's Super Bowl halftime show
- 20:39Speaker 1: back in 1993. I'm getting the chills. Yeah, so good.
- 20:59Speaker 1: I'm just getting the chills.
- 21:00Speaker 6: I was watching clips this morning.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Man. So this is a series coming to Hulu and ESPN.
- 21:06Speaker 1: Never before seen footage. We have a clip from the trailer.
- 21:10Speaker 6: Yeah, we do, Bill.
- 21:11Speaker 4: Is that from the?
- 21:18Speaker 6: Oh, did I play the wrong? Oh, shut up, Michael. Sorry,
- 21:21Speaker 6: I played the wrong one there.
- 21:22Speaker 1: My bad. How about a clip from the actual Super
- 21:26Speaker 1: Bowl halftime performance?
- 21:30Speaker 6: My son, young Abel, is going to be Michael Jackson
- 21:32Speaker 6: for Halloween.
- 21:33Speaker 11: Oh, no way.
- 21:34Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 21:35Speaker 4: Is he wearing the thriller jacket, the red leather one?
- 21:37Speaker 6: He's wearing, no, it's the black jacket.
- 21:40Speaker 1: Okay.
- 21:40Speaker 6: With the shiny shoes.
- 21:42Speaker 1: And the little white socks. Yeah, I think it's the,
- 21:44Speaker 1: what video is that?
- 21:46Speaker 4: Well, that was the stage performance.
- 21:47Speaker 6: Yes, it's a black jacket with the white shirt. That's
- 21:49Speaker 6: where he moonwalked.
- 21:50Speaker 1: And the hat, yes. Is he going to moonwalk?
- 21:53Speaker 6: I tried to get him to do it, didn't look
- 21:55Speaker 6: that good.
- 21:56Speaker 4: Okay, he's got to work on it.
- 21:58Speaker 11: Wow.
- 21:59Speaker 1: And by the way, here we are, and still... No
- 22:03Speaker 1: announcement on who the halftime show is going to be
- 22:05Speaker 1: at the Super Bowl. They're really. This is troubling. This
- 22:08Speaker 1: is very late. Does this mean they're having trouble finding someone?
- 22:11Speaker 4: I think so.
- 22:11Speaker 6: That was the story. And apparently it's true.
- 22:14Speaker 1: Is it because the artist doesn't get paid?
- 22:17Speaker 6: No, because they make a ton of money from just
- 22:20Speaker 6: the streams and the tours. Yeah, their music explodes. It's
- 22:23Speaker 6: not about the money. I don't know what it is.
- 22:25Speaker 6: It's going to be Jay-Z. He's going to do it himself.
- 22:28Speaker 4: It seems like that's what the setup is.
- 22:31Speaker 6: Yeah, he's having trouble picking someone, so he's just going
- 22:33Speaker 6: to say, you know what, I'll do it.
- 22:35Speaker 4: And bring in all his friends.
- 22:37Speaker 6: No, everyone will be there.
- 22:37Speaker 5: Right.
- 22:38Speaker 1: Wow, boy, that's really big of him, huh? He's going
- 22:41Speaker 1: to do the halftime show, especially since he's the one
- 22:44Speaker 1: that makes the decisions. I know.
- 22:46Speaker 6: Seems to be a conflict there.
- 22:47Speaker 1: It would be a good halftime show, though. Uh, we
- 22:50Speaker 1: got to talk about this Kelly Clarkson story. We talked
- 22:52Speaker 1: about it yesterday and now everybody is talking about it.
- 22:56Speaker 4: It's getting worse.
- 22:57Speaker 1: So there's a store in New York city. What's it called?
- 23:00Speaker 4: Art of play. It's in Brooklyn and they've raised the
- 23:04Speaker 4: price now of the bird that was not for sale
- 23:06Speaker 4: from 15,000 to 15 million.
- 23:09Speaker 1: Okay. How did they do that? Do they really think
- 23:12Speaker 1: I couldn't believe it was 15,000. It's a little bird.
- 23:15Speaker 1: It mechanically sings and dances.
- 23:16Speaker 4: It's actually very cool. The artist's name is Bliss, a
- 23:19Speaker 4: guy from Seattle. He lives in the woods. And it
- 23:22Speaker 4: sings six songs. It's a crank thing. And then it
- 23:25Speaker 4: makes all these. It's like a little songbird on your wall.
- 23:28Speaker 4: So I can see why Kelly wanted it because she's
- 23:30Speaker 4: a songbird.
- 23:31Speaker 1: Well, it's very artistic.
- 23:32Speaker 4: It is.
- 23:33Speaker 1: And it took a lot to build.
- 23:34Speaker 4: It's beautiful.
- 23:35Speaker 6: All this fuss is about. A mechanical bird?
- 23:38Speaker 4: Yes, that sings.
- 23:39Speaker 1: But it's the contraption below it.
- 23:41Speaker 4: It is.
- 23:41Speaker 1: It's a box-shaped contraption with all kinds of gears and
- 23:44Speaker 1: wheels and everything. And you crank it.
- 23:46Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very cool.
- 23:48Speaker 1: Okay. But.
- 23:49Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 23:50Speaker 1: But. Now there's outrage. Yes. Kelly took to social complaining
- 23:55Speaker 1: about the way she was treated in the store. And obviously,
- 23:58Speaker 1: Kelly Clarkson fans are outraged. And apparently, some of them
- 24:01Speaker 1: are showing up outside the store. And now the owner
- 24:04Speaker 1: is outraged because- He says there's an overreaction to what
- 24:09Speaker 1: may or may not have happened.
- 24:11Speaker 4: He says it's asymmetrical social warfare. He's had to call
- 24:14Speaker 4: the police because people live like upstairs and there are
- 24:17Speaker 4: people on the, you know, screaming at customers and it's
- 24:20Speaker 4: just become really ugly.
- 24:21Speaker 6: He said he's like literally afraid of their safety, the customers.
- 24:25Speaker 1: We are afraid for the safety of our shopkeepers. Kelly
- 24:28Speaker 1: Clarkson has put us in danger. This is an insane misunderstanding.
- 24:32Speaker 1: Nothing happened in this shop to justify her scolding our
- 24:35Speaker 1: shopkeeper on the way out. If it is this intense
- 24:38Speaker 1: to be merely mentioned by Kelly Clarkson, I can only
- 24:41Speaker 1: imagine how intense it is to be.
- 24:42Speaker 6: Kelly Clarkson every single day.
- 24:44Speaker 1: But things changed when she used her platform to attack us.
- 24:48Speaker 1: When Kelly came in, the shop was crowded. We treated
- 24:50Speaker 1: her like a normal person, but apparently that did not
- 24:52Speaker 1: live up.
- 24:53Speaker 11: To her expectations.
- 24:54Speaker 1: How does he see it like they treated her like
- 24:56Speaker 1: a normal person? Keep in mind, Kelly Clarkson is one
- 24:59Speaker 1: of the nicest people I've ever met. And it just
- 25:01Speaker 1: doesn't seem that she's possible to be confrontational. It doesn't
- 25:06Speaker 1: seem very Kelly Clarkson.
- 25:08Speaker 9: The thing that I'm confused about too is originally in
- 25:11Speaker 9: their statement, they said that it wasn't for sale. They
- 25:13Speaker 9: were like, she tried to buy something that wasn't for sale.
- 25:15Speaker 9: And then we found out it was $ 15, 000 and now
- 25:18Speaker 9: they're raising the price.
- 25:19Speaker 2: So obviously it was for sale.
- 25:20Speaker 1: Why did they lie? Well, not only that, the store
- 25:23Speaker 1: owner is outraged and yet he's like, hike the price
- 25:26Speaker 1: to 15 million. So he's going to cash. If somebody's
- 25:29Speaker 1: crazy enough, if you were crazy enough to pay 15,000
- 25:33Speaker 1: and even crazier to pay 15 million, This guy makes out.
- 25:37Speaker 1: He's the only one that does make out in the
- 25:39Speaker 1: whole thing.
- 25:40Speaker 6: It's literally like the scene in Pretty Woman.
- 25:42Speaker 4: It is.
- 25:43Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 25:44Speaker 6: They thought she was a nobody. She didn't have any money.
- 25:46Speaker 6: They kind of shamed her a little bit.
- 25:47Speaker 4: They released video footage of her in the store, too.
- 25:50Speaker 6: Yeah, she had the backpack.
- 25:51Speaker 4: Yeah, she's dressed like a celebrity.
- 25:55Speaker 6: They thought that she just didn't have the money to spend.
- 25:58Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 25:58Speaker 6: So, you know, get out of here.
- 25:59Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 26:00Speaker 6: Turns out she does.
- 26:01Speaker 1: I don't think it's going away anytime soon.
- 26:04Speaker 6: Every day is a new part of the story.
- 26:05Speaker 1: I'm waiting for Kelly Clarkson to come out and talk
- 26:07Speaker 1: about it. Not on social, but you just sit and
- 26:11Speaker 1: talk about it and tell the story.
- 26:12Speaker 6: She should do a song. I mean, literally everybody's talking
- 26:19Speaker 6: about the bird.
- 26:21Speaker 1: Oh, you know what I'm talking about this morning? The Bruins.
- 26:23Speaker 1: They had a game last night. We got it here
- 26:26Speaker 1: at 11 o'clock at night. The game started at 11
- 26:30Speaker 1: o'clock in San Jose. They played the Sharks and they won.
- 26:33Speaker 4: That's good.
- 26:34Speaker 1: Big win. The Bruins are looking good. This Minton kid.
- 26:37Speaker 1: they paid him a lot of money and he's paying off.
- 26:40Speaker 2: I'm so happy.
- 26:41Speaker 9: We finally have like a young core that is like
- 26:44Speaker 9: actually going to help us.
- 26:45Speaker 1: I'm yeah. So we got the speed we always needed, right?
- 26:49Speaker 1: They always talked about, we needed more speed.
- 26:52Speaker 2: Great ad.
- 26:53Speaker 9: I wasn't sure about him cause I didn't know anything,
- 26:55Speaker 9: but he's looking amazing for us.
- 26:56Speaker 1: Higgins, yeah. You want to talk about the new Bruins
- 26:59Speaker 1: merch that has all the guys like a boy band
- 27:02Speaker 1: on the t-shirt?
- 27:02Speaker 9: They're selling a shirt that's like a Millennials Dream shirt
- 27:05Speaker 9: that has five players on the front that looks like
- 27:08Speaker 9: a boy band.
- 27:09Speaker 2: I showed it to Bill, like, look how cute the
- 27:10Speaker 2: shirt is. He went, who wants that?
- 27:12Speaker 1: Oh, my God, it's going to sell out.
- 27:15Speaker 9: There's people online from other states being like, I need
- 27:18Speaker 9: a Bruins ticket just so I can get this shirt.
- 27:20Speaker 2: People help me out.
- 27:20Speaker 1: Actually, it's a very cool T-shirt.
- 27:22Speaker 2: I love that.
- 27:22Speaker 6: You know what, Riley? I'll hit the Venmo. Get Bill
- 27:24Speaker 6: a shirt.
- 27:25Speaker 1: I want one.
- 27:26Speaker 2: He goes, do you know who these players are?
- 27:28Speaker 5: I'm like, yes.
- 27:29Speaker 1: I was just curious. Could you name all these players
- 27:31Speaker 1: dressed like boy band members? And she nailed it.
- 27:33Speaker 6: Oh, yeah. She's dialed in on the Bruins.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Peyton Pritchard signed a two-year extension with the Celtics, $ 44 million.
- 27:42Speaker 1: He earned his money the end of last season. Boy,
- 27:44Speaker 1: he was hitting them from a parking lot outside. Yeah,
- 27:48Speaker 1: what a great story. Talk about downtown.
- 27:49Speaker 6: What a great story that is, right?
- 27:51Speaker 1: Coming off the bench and just the last couple of years.
- 27:54Speaker 1: Nice guy, too. Brought to you by the 99 Restaurants

- 28:46Speaker 1: Is it a red flag if you've got a work

- 28:53Speaker 1: the number to call. Lisa, you got a DM on this.
- 28:57Speaker 13: All right.
- 28:58Speaker 4: So this listener said, hey, Billy and Lisa, I need
- 29:01Speaker 4: some help. Recently, my boyfriend has been texting his work
- 29:04Speaker 4: colleague at night while we are in bed. I asked
- 29:06Speaker 4: him last night about it, and he explained it was
- 29:08Speaker 4: his colleague who was going through a separation. He said
- 29:11Speaker 4: he was just trying to help her through it. I'm
- 29:14Speaker 4: not sure how comfortable I feel with it. And also,
- 29:16Speaker 4: doesn't she have girlfriends she can talk to? I trust him,
- 29:19Speaker 4: but I've heard of affairs starting this way at work.
- 29:22Speaker 4: And I'm nervous about it. Am I being too crazy?
- 29:25Speaker 4: Please help me. And then she says, love the show.
- 29:27Speaker 4: Thank you.
- 29:27Speaker 1: Love the show. Is this a late night thing?
- 29:30Speaker 4: It seems like it. Yeah. They're in bed. And this
- 29:34Speaker 4: person is probably leaning over being like, who are you texting?
- 29:36Speaker 1: Oh, so he's doing it in bed. Yes.
- 29:39Speaker 12: Uh-huh.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Huh. Seems a little uncomfortable. I don't know. I think
- 29:43Speaker 1: it's a bit much. Why not just talk when you're
- 29:45Speaker 1: in the office?
- 29:46Speaker 4: Exactly. I think it's the other setup is a little strange.
- 29:50Speaker 6: Yeah, in bed is supposed to be the intimate time.
- 29:53Speaker 1: Right. You know, the door closes. It's your world.
- 29:56Speaker 4: Exactly.
- 29:57Speaker 1: You know, that's your world.
- 29:58Speaker 6: Yeah, but do you think it's okay to have a
- 30:00Speaker 6: work wife or work husband?
- 30:02Speaker 1: Definitely. I've got one sitting next to me.
- 30:04Speaker 4: I know. I've been working next to Billy for 25 years.
- 30:07Speaker 11: Right.
- 30:07Speaker 6: Do you ever text him?
- 30:08Speaker 4: I don't text him at night in bed when I'm—no,
- 30:10Speaker 4: I don't.
- 30:11Speaker 1: I text her very late at night.
- 30:13Speaker 5: I know.
- 30:16Speaker 6: Well, you got the dogs in between you and your wife, Michelle.
- 30:19Speaker 1: You don't want to wake the dogs.
- 30:20Speaker 6: We just text Lisa, see what's going on.
- 30:23Speaker 1: Imagine in the dark, just whispering. So Lisa, how you doing?
- 30:27Speaker 1: What's crazy.
- 30:28Speaker 4: That's, that's the part that I'm having a problem with.
- 30:31Speaker 4: It's not that you are friendly with someone that you
- 30:33Speaker 4: work with. It's like the setup of at night. And
- 30:36Speaker 4: also show some respect for your partner.
- 30:38Speaker 6: Well, and also, you know, she's, um, he's giving her,
- 30:41Speaker 6: you know, advice about a breakup.
- 30:43Speaker 1: Like what?
- 30:44Speaker 6: He's the shoulder to lean on.
- 30:45Speaker 10: Right.
- 30:46Speaker 6: And they're working that lead to.
- 30:47Speaker 13: Right.
- 30:48Speaker 4: And it's late night. It's kind of again, like maybe.
- 30:50Speaker 1: Over coffee in the morning at work.
- 30:53Speaker 6: You know, she might she might even have a problem
- 30:56Speaker 6: with that. That might even be too much as well.
- 30:59Speaker 6: I think I think the really the line that sticks
- 31:00Speaker 6: out is doesn't she have girlfriends to to talk to.
- 31:03Speaker 3: Right.
- 31:04Speaker 6: About this. I have a long time here at the
- 31:07Speaker 6: radio station. I've had a work wife because I used
- 31:09Speaker 6: to work with her, Ashley, down the hall. We spent
- 31:11Speaker 6: many years together. And my wife calls her my work wife.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 31:15Speaker 6: You know, we text and all, you know, just like
- 31:17Speaker 6: anybody else. But I don't think my wife's concerned. I
- 31:21Speaker 6: think she's probably like, I don't think.
- 31:23Speaker 1: Well, some women don't even enjoy the term work wife.
- 31:28Speaker 11: Right.
- 31:28Speaker 10: You know.
- 31:30Speaker 6: Well, do you refer to Lisa as a work wife?
- 31:33Speaker 1: I don't think so.
- 31:34Speaker 11: No.
- 31:34Speaker 13: No.
- 31:35Speaker 4: We're just friends.
- 31:36Speaker 1: Best friend? Like, you know.
- 31:38Speaker 6: I will say that several years ago, I was going
- 31:41Speaker 6: through a very hard time in my marriage, and we
- 31:44Speaker 6: were very close to splitting up and potentially getting a divorce.
- 31:48Speaker 9: What?
- 31:48Speaker 6: Very, very close. And it was a really tough time
- 31:51Speaker 6: in my marriage, and it was all me, right? I
- 31:54Speaker 6: couldn't see it, but it was me. It was my
- 31:56Speaker 6: head telling me things, and I leaned on my work
- 31:59Speaker 6: wife down the hall, and she talked. She, like, was
- 32:02Speaker 6: very blunt with me and told me, what I needed
- 32:05Speaker 6: to hear and realize that it was me and basically
- 32:08Speaker 6: help save my marriage. It was in that conversation changed everything.
- 32:13Speaker 6: And after that, we worked it out and I was
- 32:15Speaker 6: able to kind of see what I was doing. So
- 32:17Speaker 6: sometimes it's beneficial.
- 32:18Speaker 1: And how was your wife dealing with it? With what?
- 32:21Speaker 1: Did she know these conversations were going on?
- 32:23Speaker 6: I told her.
- 32:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 32:24Speaker 6: And she actually texted her and thanked her because she
- 32:26Speaker 6: couldn't get through to me.
- 32:27Speaker 12: Right.
- 32:28Speaker 1: But she could. But she could. See, that worked out. Yeah.
- 32:31Speaker 4: I think so.
- 32:31Speaker 1: But other times, you know, it can be a little risky.
- 32:34Speaker 14: Hey, it's Sarah from Maine. And in terms of the
- 32:36Speaker 14: work colleague thing, that is an absolute no.
- 32:39Speaker 4: I don't know if anyone remembers.
- 32:40Speaker 14: The episode of Seinfeld where.
- 32:42Speaker 10: Jerry and Elaine.
- 32:44Speaker 4: go after the friends that.
- 32:45Speaker 2: Are getting divorced and the line is you go from.
- 32:49Speaker 6: That baby she's got a newborn at home if you
- 32:52Speaker 6: don't know what that is yeah a.
- 32:53Speaker 14: Little mad i'm here for you to just i'm here
- 32:59Speaker 14: and i feel like that is exactly what your husband
- 33:02Speaker 14: is trying to do so shut.
- 33:04Speaker 1: It down I thought she was saying to the baby,
- 33:08Speaker 1: I'm here for you. She probably should be. Honey, I'm
- 33:12Speaker 1: here for you. No, I'm right here.
- 33:14Speaker 6: Yeah, I remember that episode.
- 33:15Speaker 1: I'll tell you that. There for you, crap, was a
- 33:19Speaker 1: stroke of genius. Oh, please. Never mind. Ah, come on.
- 33:24Speaker 1: You're a genius. All right.
- 33:26Speaker 3: So about your boyfriend cheating on you, like right next
- 33:32Speaker 3: to you in bed. Like that's pretty ballsy. And I mean,
- 33:35Speaker 3: I think it's exciting for him to do that because clearly,
- 33:40Speaker 3: I mean, this girl has some family that she could
- 33:43Speaker 3: speak to, I'm sure. Some friends. But he's like getting
- 33:47Speaker 3: an extra kick out of doing it right in front
- 33:49Speaker 3: of your face. You need to leave him and you
- 33:51Speaker 3: need to leave him fast.
- 33:52Speaker 1: Oh, God.
- 33:53Speaker 4: I kind of agree with her in some ways. Like
- 33:57Speaker 4: he knows it's probably not appropriate and he's still doing it.
- 34:00Speaker 1: Right.
- 34:01Speaker 4: Like they're trying to push their boundaries to see how
- 34:03Speaker 4: far how much he can get away with.
- 34:04Speaker 1: And he must know that his wife's not happy about it.
- 34:07Speaker 6: Well, if she's writing into the Billy and Lisa show
- 34:09Speaker 6: on Kiss 108 asking for advice, there's clearly something going on.
- 34:14Speaker 1: Wow. You know what I mean?
- 34:15Speaker 11: I don't know.
- 34:16Speaker 6: Riley, what do you think?
- 34:18Speaker 9: I mean, I've always thought that the work wife, work
- 34:20Speaker 9: husband dynamic is very odd. I think if you're a coworker,
- 34:23Speaker 9: you can be friends with them, but sometimes it does.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Cross a line.
- 34:27Speaker 9: I actually took this as he was being honest when
- 34:30Speaker 9: she asked, which I thought was at least like a
- 34:33Speaker 9: little bit of a saving grace. Like she was like, hey,
- 34:35Speaker 9: who are you texting? And he was like, oh, my
- 34:37Speaker 9: coworkers going through this thing.
- 34:39Speaker 2: He could have lied and.
- 34:40Speaker 4: Been like, oh, nothing.
- 34:40Speaker 9: And then like, you know, put his phone face down
- 34:42Speaker 9: or whatever. So in my head a little bit, I
- 34:44Speaker 9: was like, oh, well, at least like he's being honest
- 34:47Speaker 9: about it.
- 34:47Speaker 1: Is it weird?
- 34:48Speaker 5: Yes.
- 34:49Speaker 4: But I don't know.
- 34:51Speaker 2: You know what I'm.
- 34:51Speaker 4: Trying to say?
- 34:52Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 34:52Speaker 4: I think him being honest with it is him throwing
- 34:54Speaker 4: the ball in her court to see how she reacts
- 34:56Speaker 4: to it. I think now he's like making it like
- 34:59Speaker 4: her problem.
- 35:00Speaker 1: And now is he going to have to be honest
- 35:02Speaker 1: with the co-worker because he knows his wife's not happy
- 35:05Speaker 1: about it. Oh, no.
- 35:06Speaker 4: That's never coming up.
- 35:07Speaker 12: No?
- 35:08Speaker 4: I don't think so. It doesn't sound like it.
- 35:09Speaker 1: He doesn't go in and say, look, these late night conversations.
- 35:11Speaker 4: It doesn't sound like it.
- 35:12Speaker 1: My wife's not comfortable. Yeah.
- 35:13Speaker 11: They're not.
- 35:14Speaker 1: Oh, boy. Yeah.
- 35:15Speaker 6: Got to put the work wife to bed.
- 35:17Speaker 1: I think.
- 35:18Speaker 6: Well, not, we'll not take her today.
- 35:20Speaker 1: Maybe he already has. Oh yeah. It's going to be
- 35:23Speaker 1: a red flag.
- 35:24Speaker 11: Uh, yeah, that's a big red flag.
- 35:27Speaker 1: That's insane.
- 35:28Speaker 11: Like if my husband was ever texting the lady from
- 35:31Speaker 11: work at night like that, trying to help her, that's
- 35:36Speaker 11: crazy pants. I do not like the whole work wife,
- 35:40Speaker 11: work husband thing.
- 35:43Speaker 1: Absolutely not. Hmm.
- 35:45Speaker 11: Oh, boy.
- 35:46Speaker 6: Well, you see these stories all the time. It all
- 35:48Speaker 6: starts there.
- 35:49Speaker 12: All right.
- 35:50Speaker 1: This is longtime listener Oscar, like the baloney, to.
- 35:54Speaker 11: The caller or to the emailer or whatever it was
- 35:57Speaker 11: with the guy texting in bed to his coworker.
- 36:01Speaker 1: Well, he's gone.
- 36:03Speaker 11: No matter how you put it, he's in bed texting
- 36:06Speaker 11: another person, mainly a female.
- 36:09Speaker 1: He's gone. Oh, boy. Is that the Oscar Mayer guy?
- 36:14Speaker 1: Oscar Mayer Wieners, baby. Oscar Mayer Wieners. I like that.
- 36:20Speaker 2: Billy and Lisa.
- 36:21Speaker 1: Topping time presented by Ketch's Law Group, the personal injury

- 36:35Speaker 1: discussion this morning has us talking. Lisa, you got a DM.
- 36:38Speaker 1: Let's read it one more time.
- 36:40Speaker 4: So this came from a listener and she says, Billy
- 36:42Speaker 4: and Lisa, I need your help. Recently, my boyfriend has
- 36:44Speaker 4: been texting his work colleague at night while we are
- 36:46Speaker 4: in bed. I asked him last night about it. He
- 36:48Speaker 4: explained it was his colleague who he who was going
- 36:51Speaker 4: through a separation that he was texting. And he said
- 36:53Speaker 4: he was just trying to help her through it. And
- 36:56Speaker 4: then this girl's like, I'm not sure how comfortable I
- 36:58Speaker 4: feel with that. And also, doesn't she have girlfriends that
- 37:02Speaker 4: she can talk to, especially at night? I trust him,
- 37:04Speaker 4: but I've heard of affairs starting this way at work,
- 37:07Speaker 4: and I'm nervous about it. Am I being crazy? She's like,
- 37:09Speaker 4: help me, please.
- 37:10Speaker 1: And I don't know what's going on, but yes, affairs
- 37:12Speaker 1: have started this way, I'm sure. But let's go to Juanita.
- 37:16Speaker 1: She's in Westford. Juanita, you want to join the conversation?
- 37:20Speaker 3: I do.
- 37:21Speaker 1: And I believe that you can't have a relationship with
- 37:24Speaker 1: somebody without the trust. And if he was honest with her.
- 37:27Speaker 2: When she asked, then I believe she should trust her husband.
- 37:31Speaker 1: And Riley pointed out, yeah, he was being honest. He said, yeah,
- 37:34Speaker 1: I'm talking to a co-worker. She's going through something.
- 37:37Speaker 4: I think it was just the timing of it and
- 37:38Speaker 4: where they were. That's sort of the issue.
- 37:42Speaker 9: Yeah, I can understand that side of it. Like maybe
- 37:45Speaker 9: wait until the next morning or like over lunch or something.
- 37:48Speaker 1: Well, Justin made a good point, too. He's like, you know,
- 37:50Speaker 1: when you close the door to the bedroom at night,
- 37:52Speaker 1: it's it's your space. You know, like it's you can't
- 37:56Speaker 1: share that space unless it's an emergency.
- 37:58Speaker 4: Exactly. You know, unless it's an emergency.
- 38:00Speaker 6: Can't be giving breakup advice. to a woman you work
- 38:04Speaker 6: with in bed while you're laying next to your wife.
- 38:06Speaker 4: Right.
- 38:07Speaker 1: It just sounds bad.
- 38:09Speaker 4: It's just, yeah.
- 38:10Speaker 1: You know what part I love the most is that
- 38:12Speaker 1: the listeners actually want our advice.
- 38:14Speaker 10: I know.
- 38:15Speaker 4: I love that.
- 38:15Speaker 1: We welcome it. Yeah. Yeah.
- 38:17Speaker 6: Let's go to Robin in North Cackalacka, North Carolina.
- 38:21Speaker 1: Hey, Robin, how's North Carolina treating you right now? It's good.
- 38:25Speaker 3: How are you guys doing?
- 38:26Speaker 1: We're doing fine. What do you think about this situation?
- 38:30Speaker 5: You know, my husband and I always thought if you're
- 38:33Speaker 5: going to make any decision in life, you should always
- 38:35Speaker 5: put the shoe on the other foot.
- 38:36Speaker 10: And how would it make him feel if she were
- 38:38Speaker 10: doing the same thing?
- 38:40Speaker 1: I bet he wouldn't feel very good.
- 38:42Speaker 8: Exactly.
- 38:43Speaker 1: So then the answer is wrong. Right.
- 38:45Speaker 4: It's just it's slightly disrespectful to the person he's laying
- 38:48Speaker 4: in bed with.
- 38:49Speaker 1: Yeah, you can hear it now. It's like, who are
- 38:50Speaker 1: you talking to? Right. Oh, I'm talking to Bobby at
- 38:54Speaker 1: the office. What?
- 38:57Speaker 4: Can't Bobby wait?
- 38:58Speaker 1: Right. I know.
- 39:00Speaker 6: That is a good response, right? Like, what if it
- 39:02Speaker 6: was me?
- 39:02Speaker 11: Right.
- 39:02Speaker 4: You always put the shoe on the other foot.
- 39:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 39:04Speaker 6: What if the roles were reversed?
- 39:05Speaker 4: Okay.
- 39:06Speaker 11: This is Mercedes in response to the work-wife, work-husband thing.
- 39:11Speaker 8: Yes, it's fine if they're.
- 39:12Speaker 13: Like, 30 years older.
- 39:14Speaker 8: Like, a work-grandpa, a work-grandma is fine.
- 39:16Speaker 4: But call me crazy, but if my boyfriend was texting
- 39:20Speaker 4: somebody about their breakup, who was also their colleague, I
- 39:23Speaker 4: would be like, you're dogging me.
- 39:25Speaker 10: Get out of here.
- 39:27Speaker 1: Okay, Producer Riley looked at me when she said 30
- 39:31Speaker 1: years older. She's like looking at me. Yeah, right.
- 39:35Speaker 11: What?
- 39:36Speaker 6: It was just a natural instinct. I saw her eyeballing you.
- 39:41Speaker 13: Work wives and work husbands are necessary, especially if.
- 39:45Speaker 4: You work in healthcare.
- 39:47Speaker 13: But I think that if you are texting in bed
- 39:52Speaker 13: at night, it only is allowed to be the tea
- 39:56Speaker 13: that's piping hot at work.
- 39:58Speaker 8: It can't be.
- 39:59Speaker 13: personal thing that's kind of odd that's where I would
- 40:03Speaker 13: draw the line T.
- 40:04Speaker 1: Fine I can see medical profession like you're both working
- 40:08Speaker 1: on a big surgery the next morning or something and
- 40:11Speaker 1: you have some last minute notes some last minute questions
- 40:13Speaker 1: of course that's you know that's different yeah that's not
- 40:16Speaker 1: what this was this was like I don't know whether
- 40:18Speaker 1: to break up with him or not what.
- 40:21Speaker 6: Well like she said only in bed I guess in
- 40:23Speaker 6: bed only if there's like good tea from work yeah
- 40:26Speaker 6: not personal stuff oh we love tea I mean, if
- 40:29Speaker 6: there's good tea.
- 40:30Speaker 1: Anytime of the day or night. Lisa, feel free to
- 40:33Speaker 1: call anytime.
- 40:34Speaker 6: Yeah, it's never a bad time for some tea.
- 40:36Speaker 4: So it's one thing to have a work wife or
- 40:38Speaker 4: a work husband.
- 40:39Speaker 11: I have had, I've actually had a work wife and
- 40:41Speaker 11: a work husband.
- 40:43Speaker 3: But when it crosses that line, it's.
- 40:45Speaker 11: No longer a work wife.
- 40:48Speaker 8: She has every right to be concerned.
- 40:52Speaker 11: And he's totally.
- 40:53Speaker 13: Disrespecting her by texting.
- 40:55Speaker 11: Another woman while they're lying in bed.
- 40:57Speaker 1: Run, honey. That's kind of like we're doing a poll.
- 41:00Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 41:01Speaker 1: Right?
- 41:01Speaker 4: It seems overwhelmingly that everyone's on her side.
- 41:04Speaker 1: Bad idea. Yeah. Put down the phone.
- 41:08Speaker 6: It's the bed thing.
- 41:09Speaker 1: That's what it is. It's the setup.
- 41:11Speaker 6: That's the most intimate place.
- 41:12Speaker 4: Exactly.
- 41:13Speaker 6: Is to be is in bed.
- 41:14Speaker 1: You could be watching a movie together, a TV show, or,
- 41:17Speaker 1: you know, it could be showtime.
- 41:20Speaker 6: And, you know, it's the same thing has probably happened
- 41:22Speaker 6: to many people.
- 41:23Speaker 8: The same exact thing happened to.
- 41:26Speaker 4: My now.
- 41:26Speaker 8: Husband, a couple of years ago, I saw him texting
- 41:29Speaker 8: a girl. He said it was a girl from work
- 41:31Speaker 8: and she was having some relationship trouble and she was
- 41:34Speaker 8: venting to him about it. And I'm a woman. I
- 41:37Speaker 8: know how women think. I stopped that real quick. She's
- 41:40Speaker 8: letting you know that she is going through a breakup
- 41:44Speaker 8: with her now husband so that she can get with
- 41:47Speaker 8: you after. That stopped really quick. He never texted her
- 41:51Speaker 8: after that again.
- 41:51Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 41:55Speaker 1: I think it's still overwhelming that, you know, put down
- 41:59Speaker 1: the phone. Actually, don't even have the phone with you.
- 42:01Speaker 1: If you know the work person is calling, just have
- 42:04Speaker 1: the phone in another room.
- 42:05Speaker 6: Some people don't even bring their phone to bed.
- 42:07Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 42:07Speaker 6: I got a bunch of messages about that. They keep
- 42:10Speaker 6: the phone in the kitchen.
- 42:11Speaker 1: Yeah, my wife Michelle turns hers off.
- 42:14Speaker 6: So she doesn't even have her phone in the bed?
- 42:16Speaker 6: What about you? You're on your phone swiping away, aren't you?
- 42:18Speaker 1: I leave it on for the alarm.
- 42:20Speaker 4: Right, for the alarm.
- 42:22Speaker 1: And she keeps saying, the alarm will go off. If
- 42:25Speaker 1: you turn down the volume. You know what?
- 42:29Speaker 6: I have that same fear. So I'm with you.
- 42:31Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't believe it. Even if it's true.
- 42:34Speaker 1: I'm like, God, but I have to get up early.
- 42:36Speaker 6: I got to put it on full volume. I'm with you.
- 42:38Speaker 3: I would be suspicious that that's even why he was
- 42:41Speaker 3: texting her at night.
- 42:42Speaker 8: Like, really?
- 42:43Speaker 1: She's having a problem with her spouse or whatever. So
- 42:46Speaker 1: that's why she can text you late at night. Like,
- 42:48Speaker 1: come on. I'm sure they're texting about other things.
- 42:50Speaker 4: That's just.
- 42:52Speaker 3: seems like an excuse.
- 42:54Speaker 1: And by the way, if she's calling because she's having
- 42:57Speaker 1: a problem with her spouse, now she has an even
- 43:00Speaker 1: bigger problem, right? Because her spouse probably isn't happy that
- 43:04Speaker 1: she's talking to her co-worker about him.
- 43:09Speaker 4: Yeah, very true.
- 43:10Speaker 9: If they're texting in bed, they're texting all the time. Like,
- 43:13Speaker 9: it's not just that one text.
- 43:15Speaker 1: Yeah, they had all day to exchange texts.
- 43:16Speaker 11: Exactly.
- 43:17Speaker 6: Oh, and she's complaining about her relationship and how she's
- 43:20Speaker 6: not happy with him. And what's he saying back? It's
- 43:24Speaker 6: going to be OK.
- 43:25Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 43:25Speaker 6: You'll find someone.
- 43:26Speaker 4: It's like overwhelming.
- 43:27Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 43:28Speaker 4: People are like, this is not appropriate.
- 43:30Speaker 6: And then she says something like, I just want to
- 43:32Speaker 6: find someone like you.
- 43:32Speaker 11: Oh, my God.
- 43:35Speaker 1: She'll say the words. I need someone like you. Oh,
- 43:38Speaker 1: that happens. Yeah. Oh, man.
- 43:40Speaker 6: Oh, we got Pat, the couple's counselor here.
- 43:42Speaker 10: Hi, this is Pat, the LMHC and couples counselor. And
- 43:48Speaker 10: when it crosses the line, that's when it's not appropriate.
- 43:51Speaker 10: After work hours, when you get into personal things, emotional
- 43:55Speaker 10: support for going through a breakup or anything, that should
- 43:58Speaker 10: be handled by their personal supports, their friends, their counselors,
- 44:02Speaker 10: and it's crossing the line. And this is how affairs
- 44:06Speaker 10: can start. You never get connected to someone emotionally, and
- 44:09Speaker 10: if you lie to your partner about it, you've crossed
- 44:11Speaker 10: the line already.
- 44:13Speaker 1: Okay, I think that pretty much said it all.
- 44:15Speaker 6: I love having a professional listen to this show. I
- 44:18Speaker 6: think he really is.
- 44:19Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 44:20Speaker 1: I think so.
- 44:20Speaker 4: Billy, why would he lie about that?
- 44:22Speaker 1: Well, he could have been a character for the Billy
- 44:24Speaker 1: and Lisa show. No, no.
- 44:25Speaker 6: I mean, actually, I don't know. He could be made up.
- 44:28Speaker 1: That would be even funnier.
- 44:30Speaker 4: Right, the mayor of the South Bend is not really
- 44:32Speaker 4: the mayor of the South Bend.
- 44:33Speaker 6: No, he is not.
- 44:34Speaker 14: Right.
- 44:34Speaker 11: No.
- 44:35Speaker 6: And, you know, that's the beautiful thing about the Talkbacks.
- 44:37Speaker 6: You can be anybody you want.
- 44:39Speaker 1: I think Pat really is a couple. He is. He's
- 44:41Speaker 1: an LMHC.
- 44:41Speaker 6: He sounds like it. A licensed mental health counselor.
- 44:45Speaker 1: Got it. We need him around.
- 44:47Speaker 6: Yeah, stick around, Pat, will you?
- 44:49Speaker 8: I think the term work wife and work husband is
- 44:52Speaker 8: weird and icky.
- 44:54Speaker 13: But, yeah, sure, have friends of the opposite sex.
- 44:57Speaker 11: That's totally fine. It's normal.
- 44:59Speaker 5: You start texting my man in bed, though, we're going
- 45:01Speaker 5: to have a problem.
