- 0:19Speaker 4: So you remember Joey McIntyre of the New Kids. He
- 0:23Speaker 4: decided he wanted to do a solo tour, so he
- 0:27Speaker 4: called me one day. He said, Billy, I'm so hoping
- 0:29Speaker 4: you can help me out the solo tour. I'm on
- 0:31Speaker 4: the tour of the country, possibly the world by myself.
- 0:34Speaker 4: Any chance we can drop by the studio and talk
- 0:36Speaker 4: about it. So he came into the studio and we
- 0:40Speaker 4: got to talk about a bunch.
- 0:41Speaker 6: Of different things, including his brand new single, and we
- 0:44Speaker 6: played a little prank. Well, I played a little bit
- 0:46Speaker 6: of a prank on Joey McIntyre, which he might still
- 0:50Speaker 6: be mad at me about.
- 0:51Speaker 7: Really, I don't remember the prank.

- 1:03Speaker 8: air with you, Billy, and.
- 1:06Speaker 4: A lot of people don't realize this, but you still
- 1:09Speaker 4: have a home here in Massachusetts.
- 1:11Speaker 7: Are we allowed to say where?
- 1:14Speaker 3: Whatever?
- 1:14Speaker 8: I'm not too precious about it.
- 1:16Speaker 9: It's uh, it's it's where the Pilgrim's first Yeah.
- 1:21Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:25Speaker 9: I Donnie found a place there years ago, and then
- 1:28Speaker 9: I stayed at his place, and then I discovered it
- 1:30Speaker 9: because growing up in JP.
- 1:32Speaker 8: You know, it was like, yeah, Plymouth on the way
- 1:34Speaker 8: to on the way to the.
- 1:36Speaker 2: Cage, you know what I mean? Who stays at Plymouth?
- 1:39Speaker 2: You know? But everybody does not.
- 1:42Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a it's a it's a gem and it's beautiful.
- 1:44Speaker 4: And and now do you have like blockheads gathering outside
- 1:48Speaker 4: the house now I might, yeah, you.
- 1:52Speaker 7: Know he's home.
- 1:53Speaker 8: Everybody scret out. No, it's nice.
- 1:55Speaker 9: I mean, I think, you know, as as our amazing
- 1:59Speaker 9: you know, it's hard to call them fans because they're
- 2:01Speaker 9: family at this point with us for so long, but
- 2:05Speaker 9: you know, fame or whatever the hell you call it is,
- 2:09Speaker 9: is that a good place because I get to do
- 2:11Speaker 9: what I love to do and people aren't sitting outside
- 2:14Speaker 9: my house, you know, so it's a it's a it's
- 2:17Speaker 9: a sweet thing.
- 2:17Speaker 4: And you're launching a solo project, which has to be terrifying.
- 2:24Speaker 8: Well, I enjoy.
- 2:26Speaker 9: I enjoy the spotlight, I think. So I'm not afraid of,
- 2:29Speaker 9: you know, not sharing the spotlight. But I think, you know,
- 2:33Speaker 9: throughout the years, you know, making my own music is important.
- 2:37Speaker 9: I mean, I have this beautiful, amazing ride called Nukas
- 2:42Speaker 9: on the Block or you know, and it's such a
- 2:44Speaker 9: part of me and the five of us are so
- 2:46Speaker 9: lucky and obviously this town has done nothing but embrace
- 2:50Speaker 9: us all these years. But you know, to have my
- 2:53Speaker 9: own thing and to carve my own path and have
- 2:55Speaker 9: my autonomy is very very important, so I can balance that.
- 2:58Speaker 9: So my new album Freedom is just like something that
- 3:01Speaker 9: was important to do, and to make a whole album
- 3:03Speaker 9: is a big commitment. But I did it and it's
- 3:06Speaker 9: exciting to be out and and share it.
- 3:09Speaker 8: And yeah, so here I am.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Well.
- 3:11Speaker 4: The first single off the album is called Freedom. We
- 3:14Speaker 4: have a clip here.
- 3:27Speaker 2: Wow, it's like a giant production.
- 3:29Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 3:29Speaker 2: No, I want to get to the bottom of something. Okay.
- 3:32Speaker 7: Justin is the executive producer of this radio program.
- 3:35Speaker 11: No just that.
- 3:36Speaker 8: No, I listen. To know me is to love me.
- 3:38Speaker 9: But I heard a clip of you guys so graciously
- 3:42Speaker 9: playing the record, but it was sped up a little bit,
- 3:44Speaker 9: you know what I mean? And I was I was
- 3:46Speaker 9: wondering if if if I was hearing things. So you
- 3:50Speaker 9: just didn't think the original tempo was was fascinating.
- 3:53Speaker 4: I think I think it's your imagination because if it
- 3:56Speaker 4: was sped up, Justin would have had to speed it up.
- 3:59Speaker 8: Yeah. Well, you know we're going to launch an investigation.
- 4:02Speaker 4: You know, I got people we're gonna get sued for
- 4:05Speaker 4: during your product.
- 4:06Speaker 9: I got people, you know, on both sides of the
- 4:08Speaker 9: law that are going to take a look Justin, did
- 4:12Speaker 9: we speed it up?
- 4:12Speaker 3: Well, it is radio and everything.
- 4:15Speaker 9: I'm not crazy because he does an other thing. I'm
- 4:18Speaker 9: the crazy I'm the crazy artist who you know. You know, Yes,
- 4:21Speaker 9: it goes over everything with the fine.
- 4:22Speaker 2: No, it's not like we were looking.
- 4:24Speaker 9: I should be very grateful that he even put it
- 4:27Speaker 9: on the cliff.
- 4:28Speaker 2: We weren't looking at the safe time.
- 4:30Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 4:30Speaker 7: I think it just worked better for the format.
- 4:33Speaker 2: Okay, I think that's what we did, right, Justin?
- 4:36Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure it wasn't fast enough.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Okay, you know it's.
- 4:42Speaker 7: Not a bad idea to take criticism once in a
- 4:44Speaker 7: while and went.
- 4:45Speaker 9: You were a superstar in the road sign of an
- 4:47Speaker 9: adult and I'm trying to get there.
- 4:48Speaker 4: But so I gotta ask you because when Kendrick Lamar
- 4:53Speaker 4: did the super Bowl halftime a couple of weeks ago,
- 4:56Speaker 4: somehow it was announced that the new It's on the
- 5:00Speaker 4: Blog did the very first pop super Bowl halftime show?
- 5:05Speaker 7: Is that true?
- 5:06Speaker 8: They're they're giving us credit for that.
- 5:09Speaker 9: I think we were the first act to be like
- 5:11Speaker 9: the guest act at the super Bowl. Obviously they always had,
- 5:14Speaker 9: you know, performances, but yes, we were the first pop
- 5:18Speaker 9: act to perform at the super Bowl in ninety I
- 5:21Speaker 9: guess it was ninety one earlier.
- 5:22Speaker 12: It was with Whitney Houston.
- 5:24Speaker 8: That was.
- 5:24Speaker 12: That was when Whitney Houston.
- 5:25Speaker 8: Is that what she's saying you don't remember?
- 5:28Speaker 12: I think it was bro it was.
- 5:30Speaker 9: It was a long time ago, the best halfem of
- 5:35Speaker 9: all time. I'm yes, I remember that anthem, but I
- 5:39Speaker 9: or the amber.
- 5:41Speaker 8: Being Yeah, it was. I mean that was nuts time.
- 5:45Speaker 9: We were literally you know, that was like Taylor Swift

- 5:49Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 5:50Speaker 7: Well, you guys at one point, What was it like
- 5:53Speaker 7: being on the super Bowl stage. I don't remember for
- 5:57Speaker 7: you know what for the Super Bowl.
- 6:00Speaker 9: When we looked at it, I mean, are you we
- 6:03Speaker 9: were we were still at the time, it was we
- 6:05Speaker 9: were still you know, I think teenagers at the at
- 6:09Speaker 9: the height of it was Mickey, it was us and
- 6:11Speaker 9: like Disney. So you got to remember we were like teenagers.
- 6:16Speaker 9: So did we want to be dancing along you know,
- 6:19Speaker 9: Mickey and Many?

- 6:33Speaker 2: It was.
- 6:35Speaker 8: Yeah, so it was. It had a Disney flare too.
- 6:37Speaker 9: And again even though we were you know, we had
- 6:41Speaker 9: a huge following of the Disney generation or demo.
- 6:46Speaker 2: It was, yeah, it was.
- 6:48Speaker 9: It was at a time where again it was there
- 6:52Speaker 9: was a lot going on.
- 6:53Speaker 4: I think here with Mickey and Many, you guys have
- 6:57Speaker 4: to be excited some big ceremonies share today.
- 6:59Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so I was before the New Kids.
- 7:05Speaker 2: How well is that?
- 7:06Speaker 10: Yeah?
- 7:07Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 7:08Speaker 7: But I traveled the world with you guys.
- 7:10Speaker 9: I did part of Scotland. I remember us came over
- 7:13Speaker 9: to Scotland too. You went, you know, International with us.
- 7:18Speaker 4: Yeah, Like they had me in People magazine as the
- 7:20Speaker 4: guy with new kids, and I thought it sounded a
- 7:22Speaker 4: little creepy.
- 7:23Speaker 2: Yeah, but but it was.
- 7:25Speaker 7: Quite a trip.
- 7:27Speaker 1: I was.
- 7:32Speaker 2: No, it was good. I do remember this, No, I swear.
- 7:37Speaker 4: Maybe a little, you know the hair, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 7:41Speaker 4: But I remember when you got When we arrived in
- 7:45Speaker 4: you know, England, in Scotland, it was like the arrival
- 7:49Speaker 4: of the Beatles for the first time to America. I mean,
- 7:51Speaker 4: tens of thousands of people at the airport and did
- 7:54Speaker 4: you ever fear for your life?
- 7:57Speaker 10: Uh?
- 7:58Speaker 8: I think once in Korea.
- 7:59Speaker 9: We we came into Korea once and the authorities didn't
- 8:03Speaker 9: want to believe us that it was going to be crazy,
- 8:05Speaker 9: and literally we had to get just picture like any
- 8:09Speaker 9: baggage claim area with like four thousand screaming people wanting
- 8:14Speaker 9: to get at you. And yeah there was there was
- 8:17Speaker 9: from time to time. It was a little crazy, but
- 8:20Speaker 9: you know, we were teenagers with lots of energy.
- 8:22Speaker 4: So you and I everybody were staying at the hotel
- 8:27Speaker 4: right there in downtown Edinburgh, Scotland, and there were constantly
- 8:30Speaker 4: thousands of fans outside the hotel. Yeah, you had to
- 8:32Speaker 4: go on a special entrance. It was great, but it
- 8:35Speaker 4: must have been nice.
- 8:36Speaker 9: I guess, you know, back then, I don't know how
- 8:39Speaker 9: they found out about everything, but like there was just
- 8:42Speaker 9: one place.
- 8:43Speaker 8: So instead of I guess social.
- 8:45Speaker 9: Media where you're all over the world, there was when
- 8:47Speaker 9: they found out, everybody went to that one place, you
- 8:51Speaker 9: know what I mean, the hotel, the car, whatever it was.
- 8:53Speaker 3: And yeah, it was.
- 8:57Speaker 2: You know that.
- 8:58Speaker 9: What makes it sweet is that you know, we still
- 9:01Speaker 9: have what we have with our fans and and you know,
- 9:03Speaker 9: so we can look back at that madness but still
- 9:06Speaker 9: enjoy what we have and still get to act like
- 9:09Speaker 9: teenagers and rock stars.
- 9:11Speaker 8: But everything in between is a little bit more.
- 9:14Speaker 4: And more jail now. And now you have a Vegas residency.
- 9:18Speaker 4: Is that started June?
- 9:19Speaker 8: That starts June. We at the Dolby Theater, the MGM Theater,
- 9:23Speaker 8: and we're just starting to gear up.
- 9:25Speaker 4: You know.
- 9:25Speaker 9: It's to have all the bells and whistles and sit
- 9:29Speaker 9: down at a theater like that and create a show.
- 9:32Speaker 9: I mean, we'd love to to create something different every time,
- 9:36Speaker 9: and we've been able to have fun and pull it
- 9:39Speaker 9: off and surprise our fans, and to do that in
- 9:43Speaker 9: Vegas is going to be amazing.
- 9:44Speaker 4: If I was a pop star, I can't imagine anything
- 9:46Speaker 4: better than a Vegas residency. You don't have to go anywhere,
- 9:50Speaker 4: you don't have to get on a tour bus or
- 9:51Speaker 4: an airplane. You don't have to set up and break down.
- 9:53Speaker 4: You just take the elevator down.
- 9:54Speaker 8: Right to that point. Our last tour this summer, we
- 9:57Speaker 8: almost died.
- 9:58Speaker 11: So we learned.
- 9:59Speaker 8: We done outside shows him forever.
- 10:01Speaker 9: It was literally like ninety five degrees on the stage
- 10:04Speaker 9: across America, like every night, and you know, of course
- 10:07Speaker 9: our fans were hanging in there with us, but we
- 10:10Speaker 9: were drenched every night. So to go to one place,
- 10:13Speaker 9: like you said, with air conditioning, it's it's gonna be nice.
- 10:18Speaker 9: But I can't believe we still had something on the table.
- 10:21Speaker 9: You know, Las Vegas was still on the table. We've
- 10:24Speaker 9: been able to do so many things and mix it up,
- 10:26Speaker 9: and we're very, very excited, So it's going to be good.
- 10:29Speaker 7: Were you really eleven years old when you're saying, please
- 10:33Speaker 7: don't go, girl.
- 10:33Speaker 8: No, I was fourteen when I when I recorded it.

- 10:42Speaker 1: Now, that's a really unleash's Top twenty five moments of
- 10:45Speaker 1: twenty twenty five on kith w WE.
- 10:47Speaker 2: So at least we have this guy I'm not sure
- 10:49Speaker 2: that works down the hall with WBZ.
- 10:52Speaker 7: He does a fabulous job with his social media.
- 10:54Speaker 4: He has He's had great stories, beautiful editing, funny stories,
- 10:58Speaker 4: entertaining stories.
- 11:00Speaker 2: But he came in one day with a guest.
- 11:03Speaker 11: He did.
- 11:03Speaker 5: This is a guest Richard aka Maria Christina False Eyelashes, who,
- 11:08Speaker 5: by the way, works like three jobs, two of which
- 11:11Speaker 5: are at the South Shore.
- 11:12Speaker 12: Plaza my mall.
- 11:13Speaker 2: So sher tracked him down at the mall.
- 11:15Speaker 12: Him down.
- 11:16Speaker 6: Yeah, so he did a video on this guy and
- 11:18Speaker 6: then no, the video wasn't about him. He was in
- 11:20Speaker 6: the video and there was such a demand from people
- 11:22Speaker 6: to get a full video on Richard. Yeah, and so
- 11:25Speaker 6: he did and it went super viral, and that's why
- 11:27Speaker 6: we had them in. Remember Richard Maria Christina False Eyelashes
- 11:31Speaker 6: aka joke.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Only number twenty three.
- 11:34Speaker 8: Remember Richard aka.
- 11:36Speaker 13: Maria Caristina falls Eyelashes, Levin Ki servin touch but totally destroyed.
- 11:40Speaker 14: I met him over the summer where he was working
- 11:41Speaker 14: at the mall, and the Internet fell in love. But
- 11:50Speaker 14: as we quickly learned Maria Christina false eyelashes hadn't seen
- 11:53Speaker 14: the drag stage in thirty.
- 11:54Speaker 8: Years for two main reasons. One Richard's dad disapproved, and
- 11:58Speaker 8: two he had to work three jobs put his niece
- 12:00Speaker 8: and nephew through school.
- 12:01Speaker 13: Do you have a social life, No, one need them all. First,
- 12:04Speaker 13: I don't know where, and then second, nobody invite me.
- 12:08Speaker 4: Okay, So that video got four million views in its match.
- 12:13Speaker 2: Here our buddy who works right down the hall at
- 12:15Speaker 2: WBZ news Radio. That's right.
- 12:19Speaker 7: How did you find Richard Matt?
- 12:21Speaker 8: Yeah, so this was an amazing story.
- 12:23Speaker 14: So I do this series where I show up in
- 12:25Speaker 14: random towns around Massachusetts and try to find something cool,
- 12:29Speaker 14: zero prep.
- 12:29Speaker 8: It's sort of people have called it unhinged chronicle.
- 12:32Speaker 2: That's what I do. Like it.
- 12:33Speaker 14: So I show up and and just find whoever I
- 12:36Speaker 14: meet on the street. And I had met this amazing woman, Trina,
- 12:39Speaker 14: who said she was going to take me shopping at
- 12:41Speaker 14: the mall. We went to the South Shore Plaza and
- 12:43Speaker 14: there at air Apostle was this guy Richard who was
- 12:45Speaker 14: cracking jokes and ending every single joke with joke only
- 12:49Speaker 14: that was that's his catchphrase.
- 12:51Speaker 7: And so that was a very small part of that video,
- 12:56Speaker 7: but it took off.
- 12:57Speaker 8: People were watching, like I need more of this guy.
- 12:59Speaker 3: Who is this guy?
- 13:01Speaker 8: So I met with Richard again. We did a whole
- 13:03Speaker 8: profile as you just heard.
- 13:05Speaker 14: I found out from that interview that he had never
- 13:07Speaker 14: had a night out since moving here to the US
- 13:09Speaker 14: because he was working three jobs.
- 13:11Speaker 8: To put his niece and nephew through school.
- 13:12Speaker 14: So we took him for a night at Jacques Cabaret,
- 13:15Speaker 14: the drag club in Boston, of course, and the drag
- 13:18Speaker 14: queens fell in.
- 13:19Speaker 8: Love with him too, and they said, you got to
- 13:21Speaker 8: come perform for us.
- 13:22Speaker 14: Because Richard had this whole drag persona back in the
- 13:24Speaker 14: Philippines that he had to put behind. His dad wasn't
- 13:27Speaker 14: super into the whole drag thing, so he kind of,
- 13:29Speaker 14: you know, left that bag, but like he wanted to
- 13:32Speaker 14: bring that back, and the queens wanted to make that happen.
- 13:34Speaker 14: So just last week we had Richard at two drag
- 13:38Speaker 14: brunches and Maynard absolutely packed house at this humongous venue.
- 13:44Speaker 8: Hundreds of people drove all the way from New Hampshire
- 13:46Speaker 8: and Rhode Island to come out.

- 25:18Speaker 10: Man.
- 25:19Speaker 4: Take us back to that moment when that was all
- 25:22Speaker 4: put together between you and Arrow.
- 25:24Speaker 2: It was groundbreaking. Yeah.
- 25:27Speaker 10: Originally me and Running Shay was just gonna steal I
- 25:31Speaker 10: mean sample, He's just gonna.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Steal I mean sample them music.
- 25:35Speaker 10: Yeah, and it was gonna be their music, you know,
- 25:37Speaker 10: the drums and the guitar in a loop, and me
- 25:40Speaker 10: and Ron was gonna be rhyming because it was eighty
- 25:43Speaker 10: We came out in eighty three, so it's eighty six,
- 25:46Speaker 10: now eighty four. We did rock Box. See Walk this
- 25:49Speaker 10: Way wasn't the first rock rap record. It's a tongue twister.
- 25:53Speaker 10: The first rock rap record was rock Box, which was
- 25:56Speaker 10: the first rap video on MTV A eighty four. Then
- 26:01Speaker 10: in eighty five we did an album called the King
- 26:04Speaker 10: of Rock. We did a video for MTV with Larry
- 26:07Speaker 10: Bud Melman.
- 26:08Speaker 2: Oh yeah, let them show at the front door of
- 26:11Speaker 2: a rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
- 26:12Speaker 10: Museum that didn't even exist yet because it didn't start
- 26:16Speaker 10: till eighty six. And remember Larry Budd was, you guys
- 26:19Speaker 10: can't come in here, this is a rock and roll museum.
- 26:22Speaker 2: And then we went in a ruined Larry Muddy.
- 26:25Speaker 10: So then we was gonna sample their music, and I
- 26:31Speaker 10: remember that it was gonna be there beating. I would
- 26:32Speaker 10: be like, I'm DMC in a place to be been
- 26:35Speaker 10: rhyming on a mic since eighty three.
- 26:37Speaker 2: I'm the best of MC in history.
- 26:39Speaker 10: There will never be in MC better than Me and
- 26:42Speaker 10: then Run was supposed to going out DJ Run here
- 26:44Speaker 10: to get it done, typical Run the MC stuff.
- 26:46Speaker 2: We was working with a producer named Rick Rubin. Oh yeah,
- 26:51Speaker 2: and Rick Coles. You know how Rick talks, Hey, guys,
- 26:55Speaker 2: you should do the wreck it over.
- 26:57Speaker 10: So Me and Run was thinking from a limited hip hoppers,
- 27:00Speaker 10: we're gonna sample it, We're gonna rhyme on it. But
- 27:02Speaker 10: Rick said, no, do it over the way the band
- 27:05Speaker 10: and riginally did it. So at first Me and Run
- 27:08Speaker 10: was again said your master Jay rest in peace. He
- 27:10Speaker 10: was like, yo, that's a great idea.
- 27:12Speaker 2: Whatever whatever.
- 27:13Speaker 10: So while Me and Run was learning the song the
- 27:17Speaker 10: way Aerosmith easily did it, Rick did something phenomenal.
- 27:21Speaker 2: He called Boston when Aerosmith was here. You know, I
- 27:25Speaker 2: take compound working on that album with dude looks like
- 27:28Speaker 2: a lady, did you.
- 27:29Speaker 10: They was already doing it, but there was no way
- 27:32Speaker 10: for them to come back. Like my joke is, they
- 27:35Speaker 10: could have made a record with God, Jesus and Moses
- 27:38Speaker 10: and nobody would have cared. So Rick caused them and
- 27:42Speaker 10: says this, Hey, guys, my name is Rick Ruben, I
- 27:44Speaker 10: know you know who Run DMC is.
- 27:46Speaker 2: We want to do your record over, do you want
- 27:48Speaker 2: to do it? So they was like, what, who's this?
- 27:52Speaker 10: My name is Rick Rubin and I know you know
- 27:54Speaker 10: who run DMC is we want to do your radio
- 27:56Speaker 10: and Steve and Joe and the bed was Yoh.
- 28:01Speaker 7: Did you and Aerosmith perform it together live the first time?
- 28:07Speaker 10: Oh?
- 28:07Speaker 2: Man, I don't even remember. Yeah, but I remember his
- 28:11Speaker 2: hip to add to that. So they was with it.
- 28:13Speaker 2: It was cool. But Rick did something else phenomenal. He
- 28:17Speaker 2: put us in the studio with him together now.
- 28:20Speaker 10: And the reason why this is important is, you know,
- 28:23Speaker 10: hip hop didn't create anything, It recreated everything. So the
- 28:28Speaker 10: typical mode of operation was to sample somebody's else's music
- 28:32Speaker 10: and rhyme over it. So Rick said, no, jud the
- 28:35Speaker 10: record over the way they did it. But it was
- 28:37Speaker 10: brilliant that Rick put us with them, because put it
- 28:41Speaker 10: like this, the version your hair would it, just the
- 28:45Speaker 10: version your hand now wouldn't have.
- 28:47Speaker 2: Been that virgin.
- 28:48Speaker 10: It would had just been meant me and Ryan doing it,
- 28:50Speaker 10: and we would be sitting here and just going, oh,
- 28:52Speaker 10: I remember your sample ever splith But the fact that
- 28:55Speaker 10: we did it with them.
- 28:58Speaker 2: I've been around the world everywhere since eighty six. I
- 29:01Speaker 2: could go to somewhere I've.
- 29:02Speaker 10: Never been tomorrow and people say this, DMC, don't you
- 29:05Speaker 10: know when Steven Tyler took that might stand and knock
- 29:07Speaker 10: down that wall that was separating in the video, It
- 29:10Speaker 10: didn't just happen in the video. It happened in the world.
- 29:13Speaker 10: So by us coming together to you know, you was
- 29:16Speaker 10: channel surfit. Oh yeah, like what the hell is Erosmith
- 29:19Speaker 10: doing with rundiom see and our fans who you know,
- 29:23Speaker 10: we know rock beats from samples and all the music
- 29:26Speaker 10: we stole when they got on MTV, they was like,
- 29:28Speaker 10: what the hell is RUNDYMC doing with the Rolling Stone?
- 29:30Speaker 16: There you go.

- 30:12Speaker 7: Number twenty one, justin you've got a story you want
- 30:14Speaker 7: to talk about.
- 30:15Speaker 6: Well, yesterday I was at home, you know, sitting on
- 30:17Speaker 6: my couch after work, a little tired, and you know,
- 30:20Speaker 6: I have a credit card that I use for pretty
- 30:22Speaker 6: much everything for the miles, yeah, you know, Capital One card,
- 30:25Speaker 6: and so I had longed on to check something. I'm
- 30:28Speaker 6: not good about checking my transactions. I should be better
- 30:31Speaker 6: about that. Yeah, for fraud, right, Oh sure. So I
- 30:34Speaker 6: open it up and I'm looking and I see all
- 30:36Speaker 6: these charges on them. Again, okay, yeah, but this is
- 30:39Speaker 6: I know you might remember last year I gave all
- 30:41Speaker 6: my money away. Yes, that was my debit card, but
- 30:44Speaker 6: this is my credit card. So I see all these
- 30:45Speaker 6: charges that are pending, like six of them, and it
- 30:48Speaker 6: says Xbox, oh your son.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Okay.
- 30:53Speaker 6: So then I'm like, I'm confused, and I start to
- 30:56Speaker 6: scroll down a little bit to cryor transactions, and it
- 31:00Speaker 6: was unbelievable. So now I'm like, my son's in school
- 31:04Speaker 6: and so he plays Xbox. Obviously, sure, so I call Xbox.
- 31:08Speaker 6: I'm on the phone with them. I'm chatting online trying
- 31:11Speaker 6: to figure they're trying to help me. They can't figure
- 31:13Speaker 6: it out. Was a whole thing. Turns out he was
- 31:16Speaker 6: my card. I had put on his game for a
- 31:19Speaker 6: ten dollars subscription so he could play like with his friends.
- 31:23Speaker 6: And so that means when he goes to buy they're

- 31:46Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 31:46Speaker 7: Wow, you know I never used to.
- 31:49Speaker 6: Yeah, here's the best part. Can I just best part? Okay,
- 31:52Speaker 6: So it's my I. I talked to my son.

- 31:56Speaker 3: in trouble. I should have known better.
- 31:58Speaker 2: He didn't.
- 31:59Speaker 6: I mean when he when he goes to buy them,
- 32:00Speaker 6: it doesn't say like here's your card. Automatically you press
- 32:03Speaker 6: the button and boom, you know. So when he got home,
- 32:06Speaker 6: I explained that to him, and he was very understanding,
- 32:09Speaker 6: and he was like, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, and he
- 32:11Speaker 6: goes hold on a second, Dad, I'm gonna make this right.
- 32:14Speaker 6: And he walks into the other room and comes back
- 32:17Speaker 6: with his wallet that he has, and he opens his
- 32:20Speaker 6: wallet and he takes out the two dollars that's wallet
- 32:24Speaker 6: and he goes here.
- 32:25Speaker 12: Dad, that he gave you everything he had.
- 32:29Speaker 3: That's the whole two bucks. So it's just a warning
- 32:33Speaker 3: for parents out there if they play video games, don't
- 32:36Speaker 3: have your card on there.
- 32:37Speaker 12: Yeah, the same thing happened to us a long yeah.
- 32:39Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:39Speaker 4: Also a heads up, check your transactions because last year
- 32:42Speaker 4: I've never really looked at transactions a lot, and last
- 32:45Speaker 4: year I happened to look, and I think it was
- 32:47Speaker 4: my MX card and there were like thirty to forty
- 32:50Speaker 4: Uber chargers in a row, like like a string of
- 32:53Speaker 4: Uber chargers, thousands of dollars and it wasn't me, and
- 32:57Speaker 4: it was all in San Francisco, and I'm like, I
- 32:59Speaker 4: guess that must be where they're offering it.
- 33:02Speaker 8: And you know, I called.
- 33:03Speaker 4: All I did was called AMEX. Luckily it was the
- 33:05Speaker 4: Annex card and they wiped it out. That's the good news.
- 33:08Speaker 4: But the bad news I saw it on my credit report.
- 33:12Speaker 4: So I still got hit on my credit report because
- 33:14Speaker 4: of uber falsely or like crookedly charging me b books fortnite,
- 33:21Speaker 4: thousand evens.
- 33:22Speaker 3: There was it was around there. It was, you know,
- 33:24Speaker 3: twenty five dollars.
- 33:25Speaker 6: It was averaging about one hundred dollars the day, a day,
- 33:28Speaker 6: going back several days.
- 33:31Speaker 12: Oh god, well, I'm glad you caught it.
- 33:33Speaker 6: Luckily I looked. So that's the PSA for today. Make
- 33:36Speaker 6: sure you check your transfer can pull the plug on it.
- 33:38Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 33:38Speaker 3: I took my card off and he was very understanding
- 33:41Speaker 3: of that.
- 33:41Speaker 2: Yeah, did you keep the two bucks?
- 33:43Speaker 3: I gave him the two bucket?
- 33:45Speaker 2: You good, dad.
- 33:47Speaker 1: Now that's Billy Unleash's top twenty five moments of twenty twenty.
- 33:51Speaker 12: Five on Kids One Away.
- 33:53Speaker 5: Hey guys, welcome in, and we have a special moment
- 33:57Speaker 5: of twenty twenty five.

- 34:01Speaker 12: He was doing a show in Boston is on purpose tour.
- 34:04Speaker 5: But the backstory of how we got Jay was that
- 34:07Speaker 5: he and Mel Robbins, who did My book Club, share
- 34:11Speaker 5: the same publicist in La so I got to know
- 34:15Speaker 5: her publicist, and then her publicist, Nicole called me and said, Hey,
- 34:18Speaker 5: Jay would love to come on the show to promote
- 34:21Speaker 5: his tour stop in Boston.
- 34:23Speaker 12: So we had a great conversation, right, Billy.
- 34:25Speaker 4: Absolutely, And by the way, it was in the middle
- 34:27Speaker 4: of a world tour and decided to drop by the.

- 34:51Speaker 11: having me.
- 34:52Speaker 12: Well, we're happy you're coming to Boston.
- 34:54Speaker 5: So what can people expect, you know, with your on
- 34:57Speaker 5: Purpose tour when you come to the Box Center, you're
- 34:59Speaker 5: saying they're to be some surprise guests.
- 35:01Speaker 11: Yes, I'm so excited. I'm going to be bringing my
- 35:04Speaker 11: podcast for a live in person experience. I'll be interviewing
- 35:09Speaker 11: a very special guest for the audience. We'll be doing
- 35:12Speaker 11: a Q and A session so people can ask me questions,
- 35:14Speaker 11: the audience questions. I'll be leading us all in a
- 35:18Speaker 11: meditation and so it's going to be a truly memorable evening.
- 35:21Speaker 11: And I can't wait for people to come out.
- 35:22Speaker 7: Can you tell us who these surprise people might be?
- 35:25Speaker 11: Jay, it might be coming out shortly, we may it's
- 35:28Speaker 11: definitely someone who's known for being in Boston. Let's say that. Ah.
- 35:31Speaker 7: But then again, if you told us it wouldn't be
- 35:33Speaker 7: a surprise guest anymore.
- 35:34Speaker 3: What did Jake?
- 35:35Speaker 11: Exactly?
- 35:36Speaker 2: Exactly?
- 35:36Speaker 11: But I promise it'll be worth it.
- 35:38Speaker 4: I got to tell you, Jay, there's so many people
- 35:40Speaker 4: I've told over the past week that Lisa and I
- 35:42Speaker 4: were going to be talking to Jay Sheddy. They were overwhelmed.
- 35:45Speaker 4: Their immediate reaction was, Oh, my god, I love him
- 35:48Speaker 4: so much.
- 35:49Speaker 11: Oh I love that. That makes me so happy, and
- 35:51Speaker 11: send my love to them.
- 35:52Speaker 7: Please, I shall, I shall.
- 35:55Speaker 4: Now I'm looking at a long list of other major
- 35:59Speaker 4: celebrities that you have had on everybody from Kobe Bryant
- 36:02Speaker 4: to j Lo will Smith, Solena Gomez and Benny Blanco.
- 36:05Speaker 2: I thought was a wonderful, wonderful interview, Jay.
- 36:08Speaker 11: Oh, thank you so much. Yeah, they're the best. It
- 36:10Speaker 11: was incredible to have such a beautiful conversation with both
- 36:14Speaker 11: of them, and it was amazing to see people all
- 36:17Speaker 11: over the internet talk about positive masculinity and healthy love,
- 36:21Speaker 11: and I think it's made everyone hopeful to find real
- 36:25Speaker 11: love again, which is beautiful.
- 36:26Speaker 5: Jay, You've been producing content for like ten years, You've
- 36:29Speaker 5: been helping people navigate this crazy world that we live in.
- 36:33Speaker 5: Why do you think people are craving all of these
- 36:35Speaker 5: types of conversations.
- 36:36Speaker 11: I think life's just, if we're honest's got harder for everyone.
- 36:39Speaker 11: It's difficult. It's challenging, whether that be work, whether it
- 36:43Speaker 11: be outside of work, whether it be family. I think
- 36:46Speaker 11: people have more stress in their lives. People are busier,
- 36:48Speaker 11: they have less help, and so I think it's a
- 36:50Speaker 11: time when people are really seeking and I think also
- 36:53Speaker 11: at the same time, there's a great appetite for wanting
- 36:56Speaker 11: to build habits and improve their lives and improve their
- 36:58Speaker 11: sleep and prove the quality of their relationships, which, by
- 37:02Speaker 11: the way, I believe are all good things because if
- 37:04Speaker 11: we make a difference when things are easy and things
- 37:08Speaker 11: are a bit better for us, then things become better
- 37:11Speaker 11: for us in the long term. So I think it's
- 37:13Speaker 11: amazing that people opening up to all of these ideas,
- 37:16Speaker 11: whether it's through podcast, books, live events, and everything else.
- 37:20Speaker 2: Jay, let me ask you.
- 37:21Speaker 4: This, these are crazy times right now. We keep hearing
- 37:25Speaker 4: the words, seeing the word anxiety. People are very anxious.
- 37:28Speaker 4: They're very nervous between inflation and tariffs and the cost
- 37:33Speaker 4: of things for your house, for your home, for your family.
- 37:37Speaker 4: If we were in a session right now and we
- 37:39Speaker 4: were telling you we were anxious, we were freaked out,
- 37:42Speaker 4: what would.
- 37:42Speaker 3: You tell us?
- 37:43Speaker 11: The first thing I'd say is that's normal, and that's natural.
- 37:47Speaker 11: It's not a weakness. It's normal right now to feel anxiety.
- 37:51Speaker 11: It's natural to feel anxiety. And I think we need
- 37:54Speaker 11: to stop feeling like there's something wrong with us. If
- 37:57Speaker 11: we feel it, we almost think there's some glitch, or
- 38:00Speaker 11: there's some mistake we made, or that it's not meant
- 38:04Speaker 11: to happen. I think that's what's meant to happen. If
- 38:06Speaker 11: things are uncertain, we will feel anxiety. What I would
- 38:09Speaker 11: say is that in times of uncertainty, we often look
- 38:14Speaker 11: for certainty to feel stable. But instead of looking for certainty,
- 38:18Speaker 11: we should look for service. Look for opportunities to help
- 38:21Speaker 11: someone else, look for opportunities to make someone else's day.
- 38:24Speaker 11: Sometimes you'll relieve your anxiety quicker by trying to help
- 38:28Speaker 11: someone else than you will by trying to solve your
- 38:30Speaker 11: own and so I think we will find a lot
- 38:32Speaker 11: more meaning and a lot more connection if we help
- 38:35Speaker 11: others more than even trying to solve our own anxiety.
- 38:38Speaker 5: I know that you talk a lot about the practice
- 38:40Speaker 5: of meditation, and I keep telling Billy that he needs
- 38:43Speaker 5: to meditate, But why should we all be doing it?
- 38:47Speaker 11: Well, I think it's because of what we just spoke about.
- 38:50Speaker 11: There's such a newfound, you know, origination of stress through
- 38:55Speaker 11: so many things, whether it's you wake up in the
- 38:57Speaker 11: morning and you spill your coffee, or wait, you know,
- 38:59Speaker 11: you get to work and you're already fifteen minutes late
- 39:03Speaker 11: because of the traffic, or you get to a meeting
- 39:04Speaker 11: and you realize there's a task that's been incomplete. I
- 39:07Speaker 11: think there's so many moments in the day that creates trust.
- 39:11Speaker 11: So what we need is a practice that helps us
- 39:13Speaker 11: balance that out. We need a practice to bring us
- 39:15Speaker 11: back into feeling centered, and meditation does just that. So
- 39:20Speaker 11: what I often recommend to people is, if you're feeling stressed,
- 39:23Speaker 11: you're feeling like you're out of alignment today, breathe out
- 39:26Speaker 11: for longer than you breathe in, So breathe in for
- 39:28Speaker 11: accounterfeit all and breed out for more than four If
- 39:32Speaker 11: you exhale for longer than you inhale, it relaxes your
- 39:35Speaker 11: body and mind. Again, when your breath gets shallow and
- 39:38Speaker 11: your breath gets quicker, you want to deepen it and
- 39:40Speaker 11: slow it down.
- 39:41Speaker 2: That's what I've been doing wrong. I'm breathing in the
- 39:44Speaker 2: wrong direction.
- 39:44Speaker 12: You're a shallow breather, Jay.
- 39:47Speaker 4: If you don't mind, I want to read a couple
- 39:49Speaker 4: of your quotes and have you elaborate on you. If
- 39:51Speaker 4: you don't mind, I love this one. The longer you
- 39:54Speaker 4: stay on the wrong train, the more expensive it is
- 39:58Speaker 4: to get home.
- 40:00Speaker 2: Elaborate.
- 40:00Speaker 11: Yes, I shared that the other day. It's not what
- 40:02Speaker 11: of mine, it's it's someone that I shared earlier this week.
- 40:05Speaker 11: But no, I love that quote. It's I think for
- 40:08Speaker 11: so many of us we feel we maybe got on
- 40:10Speaker 11: the wrong job, or for so many of us, we
- 40:13Speaker 11: feel we got into the wrong relationship. And I think
- 40:16Speaker 11: a lot of us are scared of leaving something that
- 40:19Speaker 11: feels bad because we're scared of the unknown. But the
- 40:23Speaker 11: reality is, if we stay on that train for too long,
- 40:25Speaker 11: if we stay in that relationship for too long, with
- 40:27Speaker 11: that job for too long, it actually becomes harder to
- 40:29Speaker 11: find our way back. So it's never too late to quit,
- 40:33Speaker 11: it's never too late to pause, it's never too late
- 40:35Speaker 11: to stop. It's important to do that as soon as
- 40:39Speaker 11: you feel you can. So I try to encourage people
- 40:41Speaker 11: to not put this pressure on themselves to push something
- 40:44Speaker 11: or force something to work if it's not serving them.
- 40:46Speaker 12: Do you have a favorite book?
- 40:48Speaker 5: I know you have two books out, but do you
- 40:49Speaker 5: have a favorite book that you always go back to?
- 40:51Speaker 11: Oh that's a great question. One of my favorite books
- 40:55Speaker 11: of all time is probably Thinking Fast and Slow by
- 40:59Speaker 11: Daniel Karr, and it's a brilliant, brilliant book really breaks
- 41:02Speaker 11: down how the mind works, how the mind tricks us,
- 41:05Speaker 11: how our thoughts work. I love that book.
- 41:07Speaker 4: Jay, you spent three years as among you were meditating
- 41:11Speaker 4: eight hours a day, and then you realize there are
- 41:13Speaker 4: a lot of similarities between that world and the digital world.
- 41:18Speaker 7: How so well I.
- 41:20Speaker 11: Found the connection between what I was learning, and I
- 41:23Speaker 11: was thinking, Wow, this would really help people that I
- 41:25Speaker 11: grew up with, and you know, my generation and then
- 41:28Speaker 11: every generation that's now living in the digital world. I
- 41:31Speaker 11: find that if you're living in a constant digital landscape
- 41:34Speaker 11: with a screen in front of you, having practices and
- 41:38Speaker 11: habits that allow you to detox and disconnect or even
- 41:41Speaker 11: more important. And so I'm grateful that I've now been
- 41:44Speaker 11: able to feed the fruits of that labor, because you know,
- 41:46Speaker 11: just around ten years ago is just an idea, and
- 41:50Speaker 11: now I've seen the impact of it. It gives me
- 41:52Speaker 11: even more confidence that these tools that are thousands of
- 41:55Speaker 11: years old are actually so practical and impactful.
- 41:59Speaker 2: You're not still meditating eight hours a day, are you, Jane?
- 42:02Speaker 11: Not even close, not even close. It's nowhere near. I
- 42:07Speaker 11: don't think I could. Uh, I don't think I could
- 42:09Speaker 11: hack that with my with my schedule. But I do
- 42:11Speaker 11: go back to the monastery every January with my wife
- 42:14Speaker 11: to do that. So we do go back and start
- 42:15Speaker 11: a year there, which is one of our favorite things
- 42:17Speaker 11: to do.
- 42:18Speaker 5: Every time your name comes up, Jay, everyone says, oh,
- 42:21Speaker 5: my God, I love him so much. But they also say, God,
- 42:24Speaker 5: he has the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen.
- 42:27Speaker 12: Do you hear how many times a day do you
- 42:28Speaker 12: hear that?
- 42:29Speaker 11: I hear it often. I'm very grateful for it, But
- 42:32Speaker 11: I can't take any credit for them, because I didn't
- 42:34Speaker 11: do anything for them. So it's it's one of those
- 42:37Speaker 11: Cat twenty two situations where yeah, it's like, what do
- 42:40Speaker 11: you do when you didn't end them? Will take credit
- 42:42Speaker 11: for them? So yeah, I'm grateful.
- 42:45Speaker 2: So they're not contacts.
- 42:47Speaker 11: Definitely, definitely, No, I am kidding you.
- 42:53Speaker 1: Jay.
- 42:53Speaker 2: I know you're I know you're coming to Boston. Have
- 42:57Speaker 2: you been here much?
- 42:58Speaker 11: Yes?

- 43:02Speaker 11: two years ago as well. So I've been before. I've
- 43:05Speaker 11: told it before. I've always loved coming to Boston and

- 43:33Speaker 3: Oh my god.

- 43:52Speaker 4: who knows better than you was always a factor on the.
- 43:54Speaker 5: Show, always it changing. And there was a story that
- 43:57Speaker 5: happened live one morning about a road party bus that
- 44:01Speaker 5: got stuck and people were listening, and this woman's party
- 44:07Speaker 5: planner was listening to the show and had the bride
- 44:10Speaker 5: call in.

- 44:13Speaker 4: here in the Boston area, Storro Drive has a bunch
- 44:17Speaker 4: of overpasses, and if you're driving a truck or a bus,
- 44:21Speaker 4: you have to be very aware of how much.
- 44:25Speaker 2: Height you have for your truck or a bus.
- 44:27Speaker 12: And this one didn't.
- 44:28Speaker 2: He messed up Number nineteen.

- 44:56Speaker 17: The couple says that the miner bumping the road is
- 44:58Speaker 17: a true sign there to be together.

- 45:03Speaker 4: Vartny and she's calling in from Watertown. Good morning, Vartny,
- 45:08Speaker 4: Good morning.

- 45:10Speaker 7: So we're talking about the story and you were listening
- 45:13Speaker 7: and what do you know there you are.
- 45:15Speaker 16: Well, I actually happened. I wasn't listening. My planner was listening.

- 45:38Speaker 7: Well, first of all, congratulations to you and your husband.
- 45:43Speaker 16: Thank you.
- 45:43Speaker 2: Okay, so walk us through it.
- 45:45Speaker 4: You had just tied the knot and you were going
- 45:48Speaker 4: from the church to the party, the reception, so to speak.
- 45:53Speaker 2: What happened?
- 45:56Speaker 16: Yeah, So we got married at Saint James Armenian Church
- 45:59Speaker 16: and Town and we got on the party bus to
- 46:04Speaker 16: head to Venezia where a reception was and the party,
- 46:10Speaker 16: I mean, we're having a good time in the back
- 46:12Speaker 16: of the party bus and dancing, having a good time,
- 46:15Speaker 16: ready to continue the good time.
- 46:18Speaker 10: And.
- 46:20Speaker 16: Then there was a glass over the top of the
- 46:24Speaker 16: party bus. So we kind of looked up and we're like, oh,
- 46:26Speaker 16: we're on sterro drive, like what, like, this isn't this
- 46:30Speaker 16: isn't good. He should not have come this way. And
- 46:34Speaker 16: my maid of honor happened to be recording the video
- 46:38Speaker 16: just because she's like, what is everyone looking at? Because
- 46:41Speaker 16: she's not from the area, She's from California, so she's like,
- 46:44Speaker 16: everyone's kind of like bracing for impact, like what is
- 46:48Speaker 16: going on? And that's when we passed the chains that
