- 0:54Speaker 2: Boston by the Way on nesson Saturday mornings at nine
- 0:57Speaker 2: and nine thirty back to back. But whenever I was
- 0:59Speaker 2: shooting an episode, it's multiple locations, right. You have to shoot,
- 1:03Speaker 2: you have to create the segment, do the piece and
- 1:07Speaker 2: then strike the set, pack everything up, and the crew
- 1:10Speaker 2: takes it to the next location, finds a parking space,
- 1:13Speaker 2: and then they have to carry it in reset. We
- 1:16Speaker 2: do a segment at that location, break it down, pack
- 1:19Speaker 2: it up, move to the third location. Usually four times every.
- 1:22Speaker 1: Homer Soode God, oh yeah, yeah, I it's new appreciation

- 2:31Speaker 1: Sure?
- 2:32Speaker 2: This RV, this camper thing, you think you're going to
- 2:35Speaker 2: end up with it? I think I think you will

- 2:39Speaker 1: Well, this listener is dming her about a camper that
- 2:41Speaker 1: they have up in New Hampshire. She'll need my final approval,
- 2:45Speaker 1: and I don't think I'm going to give it to her.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Listen, I really believe she thinks she needs your final approval.
- 2:51Speaker 1: I think so she loves me enough to let me
- 2:54Speaker 1: have the final decision.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Have you seen this campra that somebody wants to give you?
- 2:58Speaker 1: It actually is beautiful. It's not it's not a fixer upper.
- 3:01Speaker 2: It's actually the one I saw in a picture you sent. No,
- 3:04Speaker 2: not at all.
- 3:05Speaker 1: No, it's it's actually nice. I don't know how much
- 3:07Speaker 1: they want for it. But I'm just not a camper guy.
- 3:10Speaker 2: Man. You know, I've never been a camper guy. I
- 3:13Speaker 2: don't like it, you know. When my boys, although I
- 3:15Speaker 2: will say this, at one point in your life, you're
- 3:17Speaker 2: going to start thinking about, Hey, wouldn't it be cool
- 3:21Speaker 2: to take the kids in an RV and you go
- 3:24Speaker 2: to like the Grand Canyon and all that. So other words,
- 3:27Speaker 2: you'd fly to the West Coast, rent the RV there.
- 3:31Speaker 2: You don't have to, you don't want to drive it
- 3:32Speaker 2: across country, rent the RV there, and then just tool
- 3:35Speaker 2: around for a week.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Yeah, I would do something like I thought about.
- 3:38Speaker 2: That seriously for years and when boys were growing up,
- 3:41Speaker 2: and I regret to this day that I didn't do it.
- 3:43Speaker 1: Well, you are a big boat. You are a big boater,
- 3:46Speaker 1: so when you're camping on the water, right, So I'm
- 3:48Speaker 1: sure a lot of your vacations were spent on the boat.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Right.
- 3:51Speaker 1: So I brought up the TV thing Bill because today
- 3:54Speaker 1: typically you have your food show, but you don't. You're
- 3:56Speaker 1: on DZ Food for Thought. So I mentioned that Bill's
- 4:00Speaker 1: the busiest guy I know. Yeah, how about this picture?
- 4:03Speaker 1: This Okay, So a day like today, he does not
- 4:07Speaker 1: have TV, and you don't have the food show after
- 4:10Speaker 1: the radio.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Show nobody busy news radio.
- 4:11Speaker 1: So Bill considers this a day off.
- 4:14Speaker 2: You know, I'm not even eating. You can ask my
- 4:16Speaker 2: wife Michelle, if all I have in the day is
- 4:20Speaker 2: the morning show. My brain thinks of it as a
- 4:23Speaker 2: day off. That's crazy, because you know, the Morning show,
- 4:26Speaker 2: we just have a ball. What do we do? We laugh,
- 4:28Speaker 2: We make people laugh for a living, and we change in,
- 4:31Speaker 2: you know, information, some of it valuable and important, some
- 4:35Speaker 2: of it nonsensical and funny. Right, you know, we'd like
- 4:38Speaker 2: to provide an escape with the billion Lisa the morning
- 4:40Speaker 2: show in the morning, so you know, coming in early,
- 4:43Speaker 2: I like the early hours. You know, those are my
- 4:45Speaker 2: favorite hours of the day typically. So if I'm just
- 4:48Speaker 2: coming in for the Billy and Lisa show on Kiss,
- 4:50Speaker 2: it's a day off.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Okay. So what's in the agenda for your big day off?
- 4:54Speaker 2: Nothing? Okay, I'm going to pick up Titus. He's a
- 4:56Speaker 2: good boy.
- 4:57Speaker 1: Yeah, he's the best.
- 4:58Speaker 2: I'm going to pick up Titus. Give me shell of
- 5:00Speaker 2: break because a lot of days, you know, she's just
- 5:03Speaker 2: home all day with Titus and walking him and whatever.
- 5:05Speaker 2: So I'm gonna pick him up. We're gonna go to
- 5:07Speaker 2: the boat to a couple of projects. You know, fall
- 5:09Speaker 2: you got certain jobs you want to do on the boat.
- 5:11Speaker 2: So we're just gonna hang out. Maybe go have some
- 5:13Speaker 2: lunch somewhere outside, like at Pier.

- 5:17Speaker 2: Yeah, with the giant octopus tentacles hanging over the walls. Yeah.
- 5:22Speaker 2: So that'll do. And then I'll go home and I

- 5:47Speaker 2: twenty three. You gotta watch show.
- 5:48Speaker 1: I know, I'm so behind that.
- 5:50Speaker 2: That means you have to watch the Yellow Watch, and
- 5:53Speaker 2: then the eighteen eighty three or whatever it was, and
- 5:55Speaker 2: now the nineteen twenty three. Yeah, it gets crazy.
- 6:00Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I know. I know, I'm way behind on that.

- 6:07Speaker 1: I'm all in. I'm all in. Well, they had you know,
- 6:10Speaker 1: they had like prostitution and stuff way back then, and
- 6:13Speaker 1: that goes back especially during Prohibition.

- 6:54Speaker 1: Know, but we have different TV watching schedules because I
- 6:57Speaker 1: got a show.
- 6:58Speaker 2: You need to watch together, and then you know it's.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Showtime, showtime. Yeah yeah, all right, Well you'll have a
- 7:04Speaker 1: great day on the boat there in Chilestown.
- 7:06Speaker 2: Yeah, can't wait.

- 7:29Speaker 2: By the way, they knocked two or three of them
- 7:31Speaker 2: down and built a brand new one right in the
- 7:34Speaker 2: middle of all the others. And I guess the plan
- 7:36Speaker 2: is eventually, uh, to knock all of them down and
- 7:39Speaker 2: rebuild them. These beautiful places for these folks to live.
- 7:42Speaker 2: I mean, it's awesome.

- 8:04Speaker 1: she was running around that's where you you know, you
- 8:06Speaker 1: got some stuff there. Actually, one time, this is the
- 8:09Speaker 1: story I shared with her. One time, a friend of
- 8:11Speaker 1: mine stole a TV from somewhere and it was one
- 8:14Speaker 1: of those like it was a flat screen but it
- 8:16Speaker 1: still had kind of had the back. It wasn't a five.

- 8:24Speaker 1: So he wanted to bring it to the projects in
- 8:27Speaker 1: Charlestown to fence it for a bag of drugs. Okay,
- 8:31Speaker 1: So we're in Malden and he asked me to join
- 8:33Speaker 1: him and he would like hook me up and I
- 8:35Speaker 1: go okay, and I go over there, and he couldn't
- 8:38Speaker 1: carry it himself. So we carried the TV to Malden Station,
- 8:43Speaker 1: onto the Orange Line down to Bunker Hill, got off
- 8:47Speaker 1: and carried this TV into the projects in Charlestown to
- 8:51Speaker 1: sell it. Did you have a fence or you just
