THE PLUG KING... · Billy & Lisa in the Morning: The After Show

0:00
Speaker 1: After show Army. I'm back, mister Day. I'm sorry for
0:03
Speaker 1: that I gave you the heads up, but I am back.
0:05
Speaker 1: It's Thursday, May seventh, and yes I did not have
0:09
Speaker 1: an after show yesterday, but I had a good reason.
0:12
Speaker 2: I got asked to.
0:12
Speaker 1: Speak at Andover High School for all the kids got
0:15
Speaker 1: to give a shout out to my friend Jeff Paris.
0:17
Speaker 1: Jeff Paris used to work in this building, but not
0:20
Speaker 1: for I Heart. He works for Ryan Seacrest. He still does.
0:23
Speaker 1: He kind of does part time there, but he's also
0:25
Speaker 1: a teacher at Andover High. So I've known Jeff a
0:27
Speaker 1: long time. His brother is Romeo, who used to work
0:31
Speaker 1: on Kiss went away for many many years. He's now
0:32
Speaker 1: with Jet Blue Pilot. So Jeff ended up leaving full
0:36
Speaker 1: time with Ryan Seacrest a part time and now he
0:39
Speaker 1: teaches at Andover.
0:41
Speaker 2: So he hit me up.
0:42
Speaker 1: They started a new program called Overcoming Obstacles and he
0:45
Speaker 1: wants to bring in speakers and I.
0:47
Speaker 2: Think I was the first one.
0:48
Speaker 1: So he asked me to go and kind of share
0:50
Speaker 1: my story and it was great, man, it was so
0:53
Speaker 1: so nice to meet.
0:54
Speaker 2: All the kids.
0:55
Speaker 1: They were like fully engaged. They asked a lot of questions.
0:58
Speaker 1: That was actually my My fear wasn't getting up on
1:01
Speaker 1: stage and speaking. You know, I talk every day on
1:04
Speaker 1: the radio, so I don't really have a lot of
1:06
Speaker 1: fear around that. My fear was when I finished and
1:10
Speaker 1: they said, now it's time for the Q and A.
1:12
Speaker 1: Does anybody have any questions? And crickets? But that's not
1:16
Speaker 1: what happened. Everyone had questions about not just radio stuff
1:20
Speaker 1: and entertainment. You know, obviously, I know I'm going to
1:22
Speaker 1: get the you know, who's the best celebrity you've ever met,
1:25
Speaker 1: who's the worst celebrity? Or what's it like to get
1:28
Speaker 1: up early? Things like that, which I did. But I
1:31
Speaker 1: got a lot of questions about my recovery, my addiction
1:35
Speaker 1: rock bottom because listen, I don't hold any punches. Just
1:38
Speaker 1: how I talk on the after show is how I
1:40
Speaker 1: talk in real life. I know their high school kids,
1:42
Speaker 1: but I'm not gonna sit up there in sugarcoat my
1:45
Speaker 1: life and like make it sound better or make it
1:48
Speaker 1: sound easier. I think people need to hear the truth
1:51
Speaker 1: because when I was young, you know, even though I
1:53
Speaker 1: started using in high school, when I was young, I
1:56
Speaker 1: didn't think to myself, like one day I might become
1:58
Speaker 1: a heroin addict or one day I might become homeless
2:01
Speaker 1: and go to prison, but it ended up happening. So
2:04
Speaker 1: any of those kids that are in high school right now,
2:06
Speaker 1: they're not thinking that, but maybe they hear me share
2:09
Speaker 1: it and it puts it in their head, you know.
2:11
Speaker 1: So like one question someone asks is what would you
2:15
Speaker 1: do differently right when you were younger, when you were
2:18
Speaker 1: in high school? What would you have done differently? And
2:20
Speaker 1: obviously I suffer with addiction, that's a big part of it.
2:23
Speaker 1: But my answer to that question was who I surrounded
2:26
Speaker 1: myself with because I had these memories, especially early on
2:30
Speaker 1: probably seventh eighth grade, because that's when I kind of
2:32
Speaker 1: took a left turn. I remember I had friends that
2:35
Speaker 1: were not into anything bad, and I kind of veered
2:39
Speaker 1: away from them and I veered to the bad kids,
2:42
Speaker 1: the kids that were getting into trouble, the kids that
2:44
Speaker 1: were getting suspended, and wouldn't you know, I became one
2:47
Speaker 1: of those kids. So, you know, always, and that goes
2:50
Speaker 1: for any point in life. Man, who you surround yourself with.
2:52
Speaker 1: If you surround yourself with people that don't have the
2:55
Speaker 1: same goals as you, or don't feel strongly about achieving
2:59
Speaker 1: whatever goals I have. You know, if you're going in
3:02
Speaker 1: different directions, it's not gonna work. You know, all the
3:05
Speaker 1: people that are around me are people that you know,
3:08
Speaker 1: obviously are clean living a good life, not even just
3:12
Speaker 1: a clean part, because I have.
3:13
Speaker 2: Friends that drink and stuff.
3:14
Speaker 1: They're normal, but you know, are progressing in life that
3:17
Speaker 1: want to be a better person. You know, if you
3:20
Speaker 1: have people that kind of on a different page, they
3:23
Speaker 1: can hold you back.
3:24
Speaker 2: That's just what I think.
3:25
Speaker 1: So that was the message that I that I said
3:27
Speaker 1: to them, So shout out to andover high school. It
3:29
Speaker 1: was so great to hear from you guys. They left
3:31
Speaker 1: talkbacks this morning. I did talk about how I asked
3:34
Speaker 1: them to download the iHeart Radio app because a lot
3:37
Speaker 1: of them listened to the radio. You know, I was
3:38
Speaker 1: kind of nervous about asking that question, like how many
3:40
Speaker 1: kids in here they must have been I don't even
3:42
Speaker 1: know a thousand more kids? How many people listen to
3:44
Speaker 1: the radio, And a ton of arms went up, So
3:48
Speaker 1: I encourage them to download the iHeartRadio app. So all right,
3:51
Speaker 1: let's get into this. I was not here yesterday, so
3:54
Speaker 1: I had some talkbacks from things I talked about earlier.
3:57
Speaker 2: In the week, like my dad.
3:58
Speaker 3: I love how your dad listen to the show, justin
4:01
Speaker 3: and that must mean so much to you. And it
4:03
Speaker 3: just shows that we all have like a certain love language,
4:08
Speaker 3: Like not everyone's gonna give a hug or say I
4:10
Speaker 3: love you, but we show love in our own special,
4:15
Speaker 3: authentic way. So just knowing that he listens to the
4:18
Speaker 3: show must just be so meaningful.
4:21
Speaker 2: Yeah.
4:21
Speaker 1: I talked about that with my dad, you know, And
4:23
Speaker 1: I talked about that in my speech actually yesterday because
4:27
Speaker 1: one of the questions was what is your relationship.
4:29
Speaker 2: With your parents like now?
4:31
Speaker 1: And so I talked about that I had a good relationship,
4:34
Speaker 1: but with my dad it's been kind of you know,
4:37
Speaker 1: he's proud of me and I know it, but he
4:38
Speaker 1: can't always tell me. And what she's referring to is
4:41
Speaker 1: earlier this week, I talked about how my wife was
4:44
Speaker 1: with him away with my kids and he was listening
4:46
Speaker 1: to my show and he kind of told her, Oh,
4:49
Speaker 1: I listened every day all day. You know, I'm so
4:51
Speaker 1: proud of him, Like they're number one, my son has
4:54
Speaker 1: the number one radio show, and you know, she couldn't
4:57
Speaker 1: wait to come and tell me. So that was like
4:58
Speaker 1: a really good feeling. So I know my dad loves
5:00
Speaker 1: me and he's a great guy. Listen, everyone loves my dad.
5:02
Speaker 1: He just you know, he's not like an emotional guy
5:05
Speaker 1: that can you know, sit down and have a heart
5:08
Speaker 1: to heart. And that's fine. I think it's a generational thing.
5:11
Speaker 2: You know.
5:12
Speaker 1: My dad came here from Peru when he was I
5:14
Speaker 1: think twelve years old. My grandparents obviously they had my dad,
5:19
Speaker 1: my uncle, and my aunt, so they had three kids.
5:21
Speaker 1: They lived in Peru, which is a wild thing, right,
5:24
Speaker 1: Like think about grandparents is you only know them when
5:27
Speaker 1: they're older. Right, If you think about that, isn't that crazy?
5:30
Speaker 1: You don't know them when you're younger. So I didn't
5:32
Speaker 1: really meet my grandmother and my grandfather until they were
5:37
Speaker 1: well into their sixties, and so I was in their
5:39
Speaker 1: life at their later parts of life. But they came
5:42
Speaker 1: here when they were like forty. So my grandfather in Peru,
5:46
Speaker 1: his dream was to come to America because he would
5:49
Speaker 1: read about America in Time magazine, and so they made
5:52
Speaker 1: a plan where my grandfather would leave the family behind,
5:55
Speaker 1: come to America, get a job, get settled, save some money,
5:59
Speaker 1: and then eventually call for his family, which is what
6:01
Speaker 1: he did he moved here, and so this would be
6:05
Speaker 1: like mid sixties maybe, yeah, I think it was the
6:08
Speaker 1: early sixties. Well my dad, yeah, early sixties.
6:12
Speaker 2: He came here.
6:13
Speaker 1: He got a job maybe I don't even know, in
6:15
Speaker 1: a factory in Cambridge, got on an apartment. He saved
6:17
Speaker 1: money for a year, and then he went and got
6:20
Speaker 1: his wife and my dad and brother and sister and
6:23
Speaker 1: they came here. So when my dad came, he spoke
6:25
Speaker 1: no English. And obviously as immigrant parents, the parents were immigrants,
6:29
Speaker 1: they had to work. They had to like, you know,
6:31
Speaker 1: put food on the table. They were coming to a
6:33
Speaker 1: new country, so they worked and they supported the family.
6:35
Speaker 1: But my dad, I think, as the oldest son, was
6:39
Speaker 1: kind of left on his own to you know, learn English,
6:42
Speaker 1: to meet people, you know, et cetera, et cetera.
6:44
Speaker 2: So he had some trouble. For sure, he had some trouble.
6:47
Speaker 1: And I think maybe the relationship with his father, my
6:51
Speaker 1: grandfather Pa, who was the best, maybe wasn't emotional. So
6:55
Speaker 1: that's not what he knew, you know. And when I
6:58
Speaker 1: talk about instead of thinking about it in negative way,
7:00
Speaker 1: even though it did bother me before, like why can't
7:03
Speaker 1: he be you know, emotional with me? Instead of, you know,
7:05
Speaker 1: thinking of thinking of it in a bad way. I
7:08
Speaker 1: think of it in a good way because now I'm
7:10
Speaker 1: going to break the cycle with my son. Now I'm
7:13
Speaker 1: going to be emotional with my son.
7:15
Speaker 2: You know.
7:16
Speaker 1: I sign him up for boxing, and I got to
7:18
Speaker 1: tell you, when I was watching him work out, the
7:20
Speaker 1: emotions that ran through me were unbelievable, you know, because
7:25
Speaker 1: fitness is so important to me. It's such an important
7:27
Speaker 1: part of my life. It is a priority working out,
7:30
Speaker 1: and you know, I want to instill that in him
7:33
Speaker 1: at an early age because it was not instilled in me.
7:36
Speaker 1: I didn't work out. I didn't pick up a weight
7:38
Speaker 1: until I was almost thirty years old. Imagine that. So
7:41
Speaker 1: if I can get him young and get those habits
7:44
Speaker 1: in him young, they will stay with him for life.
7:47
Speaker 1: So that's called breaking the cycle. So yeah, I think
7:50
Speaker 1: my dad just can't. He can't. He can't do it.
7:53
Speaker 1: It's not that he doesn't want to do it. You know,
7:55
Speaker 1: he'll tell other people, but you know, not me. Other
7:59
Speaker 1: things from this week, I talked about my fear of
8:01
Speaker 1: spending money because I have a fear of going broke, justin.
8:04
Speaker 4: You're completely not alone and being afraid to spend money.
8:07
Speaker 5: I am the same way. My situation was a little different.
8:10
Speaker 6: But yes, I'm also afraid of going broken, not because
8:13
Speaker 6: I'm cheap, but because I fear losing like everything and
8:17
Speaker 6: being where I was before.
8:18
Speaker 1: God, I feel that so much, so so much. I
8:23
Speaker 1: it's not that I'm being cheap. I just every time
8:25
Speaker 1: I have to spend money, the fear like overwhelms me.
8:29
Speaker 2: That I'm going to go broke and that I'm going
8:31
Speaker 2: to live paycheck to paycheck, and in.
8:34
Speaker 1: Reality, I'm really not gonna I'm a little bit of
8:36
Speaker 1: ways from that, but there's always that fear.
8:39
Speaker 2: And I'm glad to know that, like, I'm not alone.
8:41
Speaker 2: You know.
8:41
Speaker 1: Another thing from this week is my wife. I've talked
8:43
Speaker 1: about her kind of being feeling alone. Her best friend
8:47
Speaker 1: moved to North Carolina. She's missing her, but they've been
8:49
Speaker 1: doing face times, which is good.
8:51
Speaker 6: Hi, Justin, I was glad to hear Jin did FaceTime
8:54
Speaker 6: with our friends last night. I listened to yesterday's podcast
8:57
Speaker 6: this morning and was going to le message that is
9:01
Speaker 6: exactly what one of my friends does and it really
9:03
Speaker 6: helps her keep that connection too with her friend, better
9:07
Speaker 6: than texting, because at least you can see their face
9:10
Speaker 6: on video and have a conversation kind of in real
9:13
Speaker 6: life or no, anyway, glad she's doing it.
9:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, she feels so much better.
9:18
Speaker 1: She's been jumping on FaceTime with her two best friends
9:21
Speaker 1: and catching up on things, catching up on life. So
9:23
Speaker 1: that's been very helpful. And she did book a trip
9:25
Speaker 1: to North Carolina in July. She's going to be gone
9:28
Speaker 1: for a whole weekend, and she said that just booking
9:31
Speaker 1: the trip made her feel better as well.
9:33
Speaker 5: Hey, justin thinking about a present idea for jen Mother's Day,
9:37
Speaker 5: you know, get her whatever around here, something she likes.
9:40
Speaker 5: But as far as her birthday when she goes to
9:42
Speaker 5: visit her friend in North Carolina, maybe get them a
9:45
Speaker 5: whole day for themselves, the girls, the ladies together. Limo,
9:50
Speaker 5: you could have a hotel with a spa. I think
9:53
Speaker 5: that would be great. You're such a good husband. I'm
9:56
Speaker 5: sure you'll think of something good. But just an idea
9:58
Speaker 5: for you. Thanks.
9:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is definitely on the list for the trip.
10:02
Speaker 1: That's the big trip coming up. So that's good.
10:05
Speaker 2: All right.
10:05
Speaker 1: Let me pause right here because it is Thursday, okay,
10:08
Speaker 1: and Billy does the food show, so I got to

Speaker 2: Riley, come on in, come on in. Yeah.
10:28
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I had started the podcast bill and
10:31
Speaker 1: then I realized that it's Thursday and you have the
10:34
Speaker 1: food show.
10:35
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a way that I could sneak you in
10:36
Speaker 2: because you can't leave.
10:38
Speaker 7: I can't leave.
10:39
Speaker 1: I've got like twenty twenty five minutes right right right, Well,
10:41
Speaker 1: I have we have some Lisa and I have some
10:44
Speaker 1: like production work to do.
10:45
Speaker 2: But I got a couple of minutes to kill.
10:47
Speaker 7: Oh good, I get a couple of minutes of your time. Yes, yes,
10:51
Speaker 7: by the way, yeah, okay, what do you want to
10:54
Speaker 7: talk about?
10:55
Speaker 2: Well? Who do you have in the food show today?
10:57
Speaker 7: Thank you very much for asking. I didn't want to
10:59
Speaker 7: just throw it out there. It's not my show.
11:01
Speaker 2: I knew you wanted to plug.
11:02
Speaker 7: But yes, Food for Thought airs on WBZ news Radio
11:07
Speaker 7: as well as iHeart Sunday nights at six o'clock. And
11:12
Speaker 7: let's see there's a big thing going on in Revere Beach.
11:15
Speaker 7: They're basically reinventing Revere Beach. It's becoming like a new
11:19
Speaker 7: route one I hear because do you remember Tony Floramo's
11:24
Speaker 7: where the meat falls right off the bone?
11:26
Speaker 2: I grew up going to Floramo's in Chelsea.
11:28
Speaker 7: Okay, closed for years, right, and now they've got a
11:32
Speaker 7: brand new one.
11:33
Speaker 2: On Revere Beach. That's not true.
11:35
Speaker 1: They closed the Chelsea location, but they moved to Malden,
11:38
Speaker 1: So they've been in Malden.
11:39
Speaker 7: Are they actively in Malden? See, that's why I have them.
11:41
Speaker 2: On the show.
11:42
Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe so. And now they're either are they
11:44
Speaker 1: opening a new location or are they moving?
11:47
Speaker 7: No, they have a new location on Revere Beach.
11:51
Speaker 2: You said they closed. I don't think they ever closed.
11:53
Speaker 7: I drive by a place that's clearly closed and it
11:57
Speaker 7: says Floramo's on it.
11:58
Speaker 4: Yeah.
11:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, oh really okay, it down, take it back.
12:05
Speaker 1: Floramo's did move to Malden, Yes, but they closed in
12:08
Speaker 1: April of twenty twenty four.
12:10
Speaker 7: Yeah, because I drive by a lot.
12:11
Speaker 1: So, now, which one the Malden one that's no longer open?
12:15
Speaker 1: That I mentioned the Chelsea one, of the Malden one.
12:17
Speaker 7: Chelsea.
12:18
Speaker 1: Okay, the Chelsea one's been closed for a while. They
12:20
Speaker 1: moved to Malden, That's what I said. So now they've
12:23
Speaker 1: been closed since. This is why you're the food guy
12:25
Speaker 1: and I'm Bud. Shut up, boner bread. So Tony's coming in?
12:33
Speaker 1: Is he bringing steak tips?
12:35
Speaker 7: Tony's not coming yet, Oh my god. But the family
12:39
Speaker 7: is coming in. Members of the Floramo family are coming
12:42
Speaker 7: in studio in a few minutes.
12:44
Speaker 2: Are they bringing steak tips?
12:46
Speaker 7: I don't know if they're bringing anything. I didn't ask.
12:49
Speaker 7: I certainly hope they do. But also we got our
12:52
Speaker 7: friend Bobby Wong on the show, Love Bobby because he's
12:56
Speaker 7: opening a new coloon on Revere Beach.
12:59
Speaker 1: So it's basically the Revere Beach food Show, is what
13:01
Speaker 1: you're saying.
13:09
Speaker 2: I used to run around Rivia Beach when I was younger.
13:13
Speaker 8: Everybody did us. Oh, well, she had to cause trouble
13:18
Speaker 8: on Revere. Well, surely it's a different. Surely it is
13:24
Speaker 8: like it used to be the worst street in Revere.
13:26
Speaker 8: Riley a lot of gangs, a lot of like the
13:27
Speaker 8: Asian gangs. I saw some vicious stuff down there, so
13:31
Speaker 8: I would go. We would go down there for different things,
13:33
Speaker 8: and then we got down Revera Beach.
13:35
Speaker 7: Well, I'll tell you something else about Revere Beach. Yeah,
13:38
Speaker 7: because I don't want to like take shots at Shirley.
13:41
Speaker 7: I'm talking about Revere on the show, right right, right,
13:44
Speaker 7: But something else I want to tell you about Revere Beach.
13:46
Speaker 7: The original Kelly's is still on Revere Beach. It is okay,
13:51
Speaker 7: that was the original, and that became the nightclub after
13:55
Speaker 7: the nightclub. Like if during the disco days and if
13:59
Speaker 7: you out to a night club to hook up, to dance,
14:02
Speaker 7: to have fun, to have drinks, whatever, if you went
14:05
Speaker 7: by Kelly's Roast Beef at one in the morning, it
14:07
Speaker 7: was packed, yep, a line down the beach. And you know,
14:12
Speaker 7: let's say it didn't really work out for you for
14:14
Speaker 7: last chance to romance.
14:15
Speaker 2: You know.
14:15
Speaker 7: DJ used to actually say that in the clubs, by
14:19
Speaker 7: the way, last chance to romance, and it would be
14:21
Speaker 7: like Donna Summer or something. So yeah, and then you
14:23
Speaker 7: go there. So if you missed out at the club,
14:26
Speaker 7: this was your last chance way home romance.
14:29
Speaker 1: So you'd go to the clubs and you'd hope to
14:31
Speaker 1: leave with like a seven or an eight, maybe a
14:32
Speaker 1: nine or ten. But if you don't by the end
14:34
Speaker 1: of the night, you grab a two or three.
14:36
Speaker 7: Anything you can, you know what I mean, because you
14:39
Speaker 7: don't want to be the only one going home alone.
14:41
Speaker 2: Right.
14:41
Speaker 4: Wait, not to sound like so young, but like, okay,
14:44
Speaker 4: so you're eating at the Kelly's or you're like dancing
14:47
Speaker 4: at a Kelly's.
14:49
Speaker 7: It's a nightclub. Oh Kelly's. No, you go there at
14:52
Speaker 7: night too, eats. You know, everybody's emptying out from the
14:55
Speaker 7: clubs and going to Kelly's for the same reason. Yeah,
14:58
Speaker 7: are they going to get a roast beach, But that's
15:01
Speaker 7: not why they're there, right, They're there to hook up, right, right,
15:05
Speaker 7: And it's better than the clubs in some ways.
15:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get something to eat and a nice roast
15:09
Speaker 2: beef clam play.
15:10
Speaker 7: And what's better than having a seagull literally clip a
15:13
Speaker 7: sandwich right out of your hand while you're eating. Well,
15:15
Speaker 7: that's Revere Beach.
15:17
Speaker 1: Well, we used to put laxatives in the food for
15:19
Speaker 1: the seagulls. Yeah, yeah, we'd take these laxatives animal, but
15:23
Speaker 1: we'd mix it. Well, no, they didn't die, and then
15:26
Speaker 1: we put them in so the seagulls would come and
15:27
Speaker 1: eat the whatever, you know, the food we put it in,
15:30
Speaker 1: and then we just watched them shit all over everyone
15:32
Speaker 1: on the beach.
15:33
Speaker 2: Like ten minutes later.
15:34
Speaker 1: You just hear screaming and yelling people, moms running around
15:36
Speaker 1: just getting shipped one roley.
15:38
Speaker 7: Do you see how my descriptive is different from Justin's
15:41
Speaker 7: Revere Beach.
15:42
Speaker 2: I know the memories, well, surely have, surely have.
15:45
Speaker 1: Okay, ready for this. The first place I ever snorted cocaine? Okay,
15:49
Speaker 1: no interesting story, Remember the first I do because the
15:53
Speaker 1: cocaine was bought by two people from two people named
15:57
Speaker 1: Nana and Papa. That was their name. They were an
15:59
Speaker 1: older cup. Yeah they're long gone now. They were Nana
16:03
Speaker 1: and Papa, and yeah, they pushed cocaine. So I went
16:05
Speaker 1: to the house and I snorted my first line, and
16:08
Speaker 1: I'll never forget. Nana was sitting at the table and
16:11
Speaker 1: she cut the line or whatever, and she's talking about
16:14
Speaker 1: how long she had been doing cocaine and how much
16:16
Speaker 1: damage it had.
16:17
Speaker 2: Done to her body. And she took the straw. It
16:20
Speaker 2: was pretty pretty long too, and she said, I have
16:22
Speaker 2: no cartilage in my nose. You want to see?
16:24
Speaker 1: And she stuck the entire straw up her nose like
16:27
Speaker 1: it was nothing. Yeah, and then she said, you want
16:30
Speaker 1: another line.
16:30
Speaker 7: I was like, absolutely, Well, a lot of major league
16:35
Speaker 7: coke heads ended up with deviated siptoms.
16:37
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yeah, acquired through.
16:40
Speaker 7: They just basically blew a hole through their nostrils.
16:43
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's basically really controversial. Can't judge me for this.
16:45
Speaker 2: It is the Apter Show, so you can say what
16:47
Speaker 2: you want.
16:48
Speaker 4: I've never done drugs, and I probably won't ever do drugs.
16:51
Speaker 4: They kind of scare me. But I can see why
16:56
Speaker 4: people like romanticize the idea of drugs because the idea
17:00
Speaker 4: of doing cocaine sounds fun.
17:03
Speaker 7: Sounds fun.
17:04
Speaker 4: Do you like see people like in movies or whatever, like,
17:07
Speaker 4: oh yeah, in a line like that, looks like it.
17:11
Speaker 7: I can't do it. By the way, great sex, and
17:13
Speaker 7: I'm not going.
17:14
Speaker 2: To can't afford it.
17:15
Speaker 7: Am I lying brings me back rolled to the back
17:20
Speaker 7: of his head everything all night into the morning.
17:23
Speaker 4: Yeah.
17:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is fun and that's why you do it.
17:26
Speaker 1: But then it takes over your life and you end
17:28
Speaker 1: up homeless on the street.
17:29
Speaker 7: I don't even think it exists anymore.
17:31
Speaker 2: One of the thing. Oh yeah, well, this fentanyls mixed in,
17:35
Speaker 2: so you never know. You might die when you do it.
17:37
Speaker 1: But you know, when you get clean, you have to
17:39
Speaker 1: get away from the romanticizing of it, because it's very
17:42
Speaker 1: easy to think back to the good times and.
17:43
Speaker 2: Forget about the bad times. You know. Have you ever
17:48
Speaker 2: done coke?
17:49
Speaker 7: Absolutely? Oh?
17:50
Speaker 2: Okay, you start really? Yeah?
17:53
Speaker 7: Can we?
17:54
Speaker 1: Nanny says she did coke with Billy and went to
17:56
Speaker 1: Hill and Somerville. I don't believe it. I think she's
17:58
Speaker 1: like confused.
18:00
Speaker 7: I wouldn't go to winter because.
18:02
Speaker 2: I did call Billy Costin went to hell in some level.
18:04
Speaker 2: Don't let him, do you, young guy?
18:06
Speaker 7: Although I'll tell you. You know, before I got into radio,
18:10
Speaker 7: or as I was getting into radio, I had a
18:12
Speaker 7: DJ company, but we also set up sound systems and
18:16
Speaker 7: nightclubs and things like that and concerts. So and I
18:19
Speaker 7: had three or four trucks. It was a big operation.
18:22
Speaker 7: So I got hired by this club owner in Vermont,
18:27
Speaker 7: over by Woodstock Village, and it was called Jason's because
18:31
Speaker 7: the guy's name was Jason. In the small town of Woodstock, Vermont.
18:35
Speaker 7: He was the butcher. He had a beautiful butcher shop
18:39
Speaker 7: and wine shop. But he wanted to open a nightclub,
18:42
Speaker 7: and I got a call from him. He happened to
18:44
Speaker 7: be in Boston. I was DJing one of the clubs.
18:46
Speaker 7: He got my number and he called me. He said,
18:48
Speaker 7: I'm opening a nightclub in Vermont and I'm hoping you'll
18:53
Speaker 7: come up and do the grand opening. Right, So I
18:56
Speaker 7: drove up to Vermont to do the grand opening night.
18:59
Speaker 7: It was just supposed to be Friday night. That night,
19:01
Speaker 7: he asked me to stay. Could I do Saturday night?
19:06
Speaker 7: I ended up going to Vermont for two whole years
19:09
Speaker 7: every weekend to do the nightclub because every Friday Saturday
19:13
Speaker 7: night there were lines into Woods Start, like just long
19:16
Speaker 7: lines just to get in, people begging you to let
19:18
Speaker 7: them into the club.
19:19
Speaker 2: What does it have to do with cocaine?
19:20
Speaker 4: I was wondering that because you know, oh, that was
19:24
Speaker 4: a part of it that was going on around.
19:27
Speaker 2: Did he pay you in coke?
19:29
Speaker 7: This was awesome. Even better, he would take me into
19:32
Speaker 7: a giant walk in freezer at the end of the
19:35
Speaker 7: night behind the bar and pay me in cash. Hm cold,
19:39
Speaker 7: that's really cold cash in the fucking freezer.
19:44
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, he was probably pumping cocaine, coketine, keeping.
19:47
Speaker 2: It there was coke money. It was coke money.
19:50
Speaker 7: No, no, no, no, no, we didn't do that sort
19:53
