- 0:25Speaker 2: What's it going to be like today?
- 0:27Speaker 3: We'll start out with some sun and then we'll have
- 0:29Speaker 3: more clouds later, but tempsling the upper fifties.
- 0:32Speaker 1: Maybe a pop up shower tonight, but not too bad.
- 0:34Speaker 2: Pretty nice weekend.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Nice weekend.
- 0:35Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the thirties. When I got in my car
- 0:37Speaker 4: this morning, and I have to go home and do
- 0:39Speaker 4: leaves because from this week and the wind and the
- 0:42Speaker 4: storms earlier this week, I got to keep up with it.
- 0:44Speaker 4: There's so many leaves on my front yard. The issue
- 0:47Speaker 4: of my house is my neighbor who I love across
- 0:49Speaker 4: the street doesn't touch his leaves until the very end
- 0:52Speaker 4: of the season. So I clean up mine to kind
- 0:55Speaker 4: of stay with them, and then his just blow all
- 0:58Speaker 4: over my yo.
- 1:00Speaker 2: That's very common. Do you have any kind of machinery
- 1:03Speaker 2: to deal. I know you're up in North Country.
- 1:05Speaker 4: I have a very high powered blower. I'll be blowing
- 1:08Speaker 4: all day today when I get.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Home, and then you bag all the leaves yourself.
- 1:12Speaker 4: No, I blow them into the woods. But today, when
- 1:15Speaker 4: they're so thick, I this sounds very sexual. I blow
- 1:20Speaker 4: them into a big pile and I have a tarp
- 1:21Speaker 4: that I rake them on, and then I dragged the
- 1:23Speaker 4: tarp into the woods.
- 1:24Speaker 1: That's what landscapers do.
- 1:26Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you may want to check on the legality
- 1:29Speaker 2: of that. I don't know if that might be frowned
- 1:31Speaker 2: upon because the woods are not your property. Okay, okay,
- 1:36Speaker 2: I'm just saying I went for this, mister lawyer. I
- 1:39Speaker 2: went through this in Lynnfield.
- 1:41Speaker 4: You can't blow that's what that's their home. I'm putting
- 1:43Speaker 4: the leaves in their home.
- 1:44Speaker 2: I'm just saying, check when when did you put on
- 1:47Speaker 2: at some sort of citation.
- 1:49Speaker 4: Or Okay, well, you know what, I'm not going to
- 1:51Speaker 4: blow leaves today. I'm just gonna go home, take a nap.
- 1:54Speaker 4: Leave the leaves alone. It says it right in it.
- 1:57Speaker 2: Leave all I have to do alone.
- 1:59Speaker 1: Just to burn the leaves. That's the worst.
- 2:02Speaker 2: Well, kid, it smelled so nice.
- 2:06Speaker 3: I think you have to get a special permit in
- 2:08Speaker 3: different towns to be able for.
- 2:10Speaker 4: That to burn them.
- 2:11Speaker 2: Yeah, have you ever burned them up? Nor?
- 2:14Speaker 4: I never have. I do have a fire pit, but
- 2:16Speaker 4: it's very small. Yeah, it would take a lot long time.
- 2:19Speaker 4: At LISTA, you have a late night. Did you just
- 2:21Speaker 4: pull in from Hartford this morning?
- 2:23Speaker 3: You know almost we weren't down in Harper for Alisa's
- 2:26Speaker 3: book Club with Jeff Benedict from the Dynasty book and
- 2:29Speaker 3: the Apple TV doc Yeat.
- 2:30Speaker 5: We were.
- 2:31Speaker 1: We were with him.
- 2:32Speaker 3: He got He is such a great storyteller. I mean
- 2:35Speaker 3: I could just listen to him forever. He just has
- 2:37Speaker 3: so many great fly on the wall stories from being
- 2:40Speaker 3: embedded with the Patriots for several years writing his book.
- 2:43Speaker 4: Yeah, on this show, he was great.
- 2:45Speaker 1: He's so great.
- 2:46Speaker 3: And then we asked him about Bill Belichick and what
- 2:49Speaker 3: his thoughts on on what's going on with Bill, and yeah,
- 2:52Speaker 3: he just want.
- 2:52Speaker 2: To know what's going on with Jordan. Does he have
- 2:54Speaker 2: any thoughts?
- 2:55Speaker 3: She said that that wasn't the story. That the real
- 2:58Speaker 3: story is that no NFL team picked him up, and
- 3:01Speaker 3: there were teams like the Titans who ended up taking
- 3:05Speaker 3: somebody that you know, no one knew, and you know
- 3:07Speaker 3: there were a lot of the there's a lot going
- 3:10Speaker 3: on there, that's what he said.
- 3:11Speaker 4: No one wanted to deal with Bill. Nope, No, sounds
- 3:15Speaker 4: like us some days.
- 3:16Speaker 2: And yesterday, you know what to say. I skipped right
- 3:20Speaker 2: over them.
- 3:20Speaker 3: Anyway, But it was the drive was great, ninety five
- 3:22Speaker 3: to seven, our sister station, A wonderful group of people
- 3:25Speaker 3: down there, Courtney and Savannah. So we did the interview
- 3:28Speaker 3: and yeah, so we're back.
- 3:30Speaker 2: We're back from Hartford. Yeah, so yesterday, and I.
- 3:34Speaker 3: Want to thank ninety plus sellers because they sponsored it.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Well, you always want to thank the people providing the one.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Ninety plus sellers doesn't mean Yeah.
- 3:42Speaker 2: So yesterday, as we were saying goodbye the very last
- 3:46Speaker 2: break of the show, yesterday, we had late breaking news.
- 3:52Speaker 2: And the late breaking news was this massive FBI investigation
- 3:57Speaker 2: into the FBI and excuse me, the La Cosa Nostra.
- 4:02Speaker 2: I didn't even know that mob still existed, that's the original.
- 4:06Speaker 2: But after we left with the breaking news, the story exploded.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Yeah I did, I mean it blew up big time.
- 4:15Speaker 2: Oh yeah. Thirty people arrested, including three former Celtic players,
- 4:21Speaker 2: one of which is a current coach of the Trailblazers,
- 4:25Speaker 2: one of which is a current Yeah, and I think
- 4:29Speaker 2: it's going to get bigger.
- 4:30Speaker 4: I think so too.
- 4:31Speaker 1: I said to Billy yesterday.
- 4:33Speaker 3: You never want the FBI to show up at your
- 4:35Speaker 3: house in one of those battering rams.
- 4:37Speaker 2: No, No, first you get the it's the FBI, and
- 4:42Speaker 2: you're like, oh.
- 4:45Speaker 4: Sometimes you don't. Sometimes you don't get that though. Sometimes
- 4:48Speaker 4: they just come in.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Hundreds. But if they're just coming in, there's the blunt
- 4:54Speaker 2: sound of the battering rams the door, which basically took
- 4:57Speaker 2: your front door off its hinges. Yeah, and you're in bed.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Imagine this is how you're waking up.
- 5:03Speaker 1: They don't mess around.
- 5:04Speaker 2: And then you get out of bed, and what's the
- 5:06Speaker 2: first thing you do. I mean, I'm not experienced with this,
- 5:09Speaker 2: but you're gonna walk over to the window and look
- 5:12Speaker 2: outside and see what's going on. And you're seeing swat
- 5:15Speaker 2: trucks and dozens of guys in helmets and masks and
- 5:21Speaker 2: rifles like machine guns, and you're still sleeping.
- 5:29Speaker 4: Got a wake out.
- 5:30Speaker 6: We're not exaggerating.
- 5:31Speaker 4: Every time you see the swat trucks, you know, the
- 5:34Speaker 4: box trucks black. Yeah, you know you're it's a.
- 5:37Speaker 7: Platoon of like agents walking behind the swat truck, right
- 5:43Speaker 7: because they're afraid of oncoming gunfire. Like, and then your
- 5:48Speaker 7: neighbors are like, it's going on at Bob's house.
- 5:53Speaker 3: Looks like airport.
- 5:55Speaker 4: You're doing the purple walk.
- 5:57Speaker 2: Oh yeah, your purple Yeah.
- 6:00Speaker 7: They have like the alien lights the outside your house.
- 6:05Speaker 2: You have to put some hoxes on when you get
- 6:07Speaker 2: out of bed. You'll never forget this moment.
- 6:15Speaker 7: Everybody in the house is up and Noddy's downstairs right
- 6:19Speaker 7: and the house.
- 6:20Speaker 2: Now I'm bringing it to your house because your yard
- 6:23Speaker 2: and property is so big. You're gonna be coming out
- 6:26Speaker 2: of the wood woods like the hands.
- 6:30Speaker 4: They're gonna use the trails that I built as.
- 6:33Speaker 2: A road, and they're gonna roll right over the chicken
- 6:36Speaker 2: head the henhouse. Yeah, Like those trucks don't stop, they're
- 6:40Speaker 2: coming in.
- 6:42Speaker 4: The chickens will be flying everywhere.
- 6:45Speaker 8: From the planet Fitness Kiss One Away Studios. We're back
- 6:49Speaker 8: with Billy and Lisa in the Morning.
- 6:52Speaker 2: Yeah, we're back. So you know, when you do a
- 6:54Speaker 2: live morning radio show like the Billy and Lisa Morning Show,
- 6:58Speaker 2: there's really nothing like a big buzz story and boy,
- 7:03Speaker 2: do we have one this morning? A massive two year
- 7:07Speaker 2: investigation into illegal sports betting, fixing games, faking injury, sharing
- 7:13Speaker 2: inside information. Thirty people arrested, including three former Celtics players.
- 7:20Speaker 2: The scandal involving the NBA and the mafia. The FBI
- 7:25Speaker 2: had this message yesterday. My message to the defendants who've
- 7:29Speaker 2: been rounded up today is this, your winning streak has ended.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Your luck has run out. And now we go to
- 7:37Speaker 2: WBZTV sports guy Levin Reid. He is live on the phone, Levin,
- 7:42Speaker 2: I'm not lying. This is a big buzz story.
- 7:45Speaker 9: I would say this what I got a chance to hear.
- 7:47Speaker 9: Everything was breaking yesterday. The buzzword when we've always heard
- 7:51Speaker 9: the words organized crime. But FBI directed to tell and
- 7:54Speaker 9: he thrown mafia. It's kind of stopped me in my
- 7:57Speaker 9: track and he mentioned organized crime family and I was like, okay,
- 8:00Speaker 9: what is happening? And I didn't know. And as you
- 8:03Speaker 9: go through it, the one thing I think we all
- 8:06Speaker 9: thought was, Wow, the NBA has got a huge problem
- 8:09Speaker 9: because obviously these are three players and they were all
- 8:13Speaker 9: doing multiple different things. Yeah, kind of gamble and make
- 8:17Speaker 9: sure the game was whether it be rigged or not rigged,
- 8:20Speaker 9: or let so the betters know that something else was
- 8:23Speaker 9: going on, and maybe we all thought, when you know,
- 8:26Speaker 9: they started legalized gambling and better that something like this
- 8:29Speaker 9: would happen. But nobody knew that it would be so
- 8:32Speaker 9: wide ranging, or maybe they didn't know and we were
- 8:35Speaker 9: just naive to it. But this was crazy yesterday eleven.
- 8:38Speaker 2: Why just see NBA.
- 8:41Speaker 9: It's not just the NBA. I think for what this
- 8:45Speaker 9: was telling us is that it could go on all
- 8:47Speaker 9: over the place. It can go on everywhere. I just
- 8:49Speaker 9: think they why they focus on the NBA, because I
- 8:51Speaker 9: just think it's easier to do. You have only twelve
- 8:55Speaker 9: to fourteen players that are on the bench and only
- 8:58Speaker 9: maybe eight or nine that play, so it's easier for
- 9:01Speaker 9: you to say, Okay, this guy at least for a guy.
- 9:03Speaker 9: People who are doing the investigation, they can say, this
- 9:06Speaker 9: guy is the guy that's making some of the problems here,
- 9:09Speaker 9: instead of you know, we're not looking at Will Campbell
- 9:11Speaker 9: on the offensive line and saying I don't want to
- 9:13Speaker 9: put his name out there with this thing. An offensive
- 9:14Speaker 9: lineman making a mistake and letting a guy go through.
- 9:18Speaker 9: It was very easy to do point shaving, as they've
- 9:20Speaker 9: done in the past. And it seems like the NBA
- 9:22Speaker 9: has always been, whether it be with Tim donaghy and
- 9:25Speaker 9: the refereeing, now we have players and coaches, they always
- 9:29Speaker 9: seem front and center when it comes to gambling and
- 9:31Speaker 9: just illegal, illegal things that just to help the game
- 9:35Speaker 9: get along and help the better, it's kind of profit.
- 9:37Speaker 2: Well, ironically, it seems like recently we've been seeing more
- 9:41Speaker 2: stories involving refsand or empires, and I think for.
- 9:46Speaker 9: All of us it's a reason why where we watch
- 9:48Speaker 9: games when we're looking for flags and when we're looking
- 9:51Speaker 9: for something, what's the first thing that everybody's this game
- 9:53Speaker 9: at six?
- 9:55Speaker 2: Because every game, everybody's talking about it. Here's some of
- 9:59Speaker 2: what had to say yesterday.
- 10:01Speaker 10: I'm ashamed that that those guys will put their families
- 10:05Speaker 10: and their careers in jeopardy like that. There's old saying
- 10:08Speaker 10: in the hood, all money ain't got money. So if
- 10:11Speaker 10: you're making nine million dollars and you're dealing a certain
- 10:14Speaker 10: things like how much how much more do you need?
- 10:17Speaker 10: Especially especially if you know you get caught, you can
- 10:19Speaker 10: do jail time, lose your career. You know, put and
- 10:23Speaker 10: put you know, put put a bad image on it
- 10:25Speaker 10: on yourself or your family or on the NBA. They
- 10:28Speaker 10: dropped the.
- 10:28Speaker 2: Ball, and Levin, here's someone with Stephen A. Smith had
- 10:31Speaker 2: to say.
- 10:31Speaker 11: Yes, gacity and the substance of the case itself, that
- 10:37Speaker 11: has to be determined and that has to bear out,
- 10:40Speaker 11: and we have to.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Keep our eyes and ears.
- 10:43Speaker 12: To the to the grind about that to decipher you
- 10:46Speaker 12: know how significant this is.
- 10:48Speaker 2: But there's no question that it's serious. So Levin, you
- 10:50Speaker 2: think it's going to spread to other sports?
- 10:54Speaker 9: I think I think the one thing that was taking
- 10:56Speaker 9: when I listened to all of that little one, I
- 10:58Speaker 9: think I don't know for I think it's I don't
- 11:00Speaker 9: know if it's not already going on in other sports.
- 11:03Speaker 9: So I can't say if it's going to spread or not.
- 11:05Speaker 9: I would be naive to say that it's not going on.
- 11:07Speaker 9: But if you listen to the conversation that they had
- 11:10Speaker 9: with FBI directed Ptel when he said that, and when
- 11:13Speaker 9: we all understand that Terry Rozier he was brought up
- 11:15Speaker 9: on an NBA investigation a couple of years ago and
- 11:19Speaker 9: they took his phone and then they just let him go.
- 11:21Speaker 9: So in my mind, when I read all of that stuff,
- 11:23Speaker 9: I thought, well, this is because of that maybe the
- 11:27Speaker 9: NBA was was on it, and the FBI was like, no, no, no, no, no,
- 11:31Speaker 9: We've been working on this for a long time. Away
- 11:34Speaker 9: from this. Well, you mentioned this because we need to
- 11:37Speaker 9: get finish this story.
- 11:38Speaker 2: You mentioned Terry Rozier justin had a video montage earlier
- 11:43Speaker 2: this morning that somebody dropped overnight last night, and God,
- 11:47Speaker 2: some of the things he was doing on the court
- 11:49Speaker 2: were really obvious.
- 11:50Speaker 4: He was throwing games like.
- 11:52Speaker 9: Games like, he's grabbing an ankle, he's moving this way,
- 11:56Speaker 9: he's shaking injuries on the side. It was weird to
- 12:00Speaker 9: and again like but if you're not looking for it,
- 12:02Speaker 9: you don't you don't think about it. But when you
- 12:05Speaker 9: when this is brought into you know, to the forefront,
- 12:08Speaker 9: you're thinking to yourself, Oh my god, what is that
- 12:10Speaker 9: all about. It's it's a It was. It was a bombshell.
- 12:14Speaker 9: It was a bombshell to watch this all kind of
- 12:17Speaker 9: unravel yesterday in front of our eyes.
- 12:20Speaker 2: And we haven't even talked about the Polker side of it,
- 12:23Speaker 2: like all the machines and everything with the X rays,
- 12:26Speaker 2: looking at the cards from the underside. When about you
- 12:29Speaker 2: gonna start learning how many people lost so much money?
- 12:32Speaker 9: I felt like we were watching like Ocean's eleven Yes,
- 12:35Speaker 9: and they were describing it. I was like, oh, they
- 12:38Speaker 9: were like cameras underneath the tables. I'm like, I've heard
- 12:40Speaker 9: of that, and camel's in the card dishes. I was like,
- 12:43Speaker 9: I know about that. I'm like, how how far reaching
- 12:46Speaker 9: were they for that? All these players and were losing
- 12:49Speaker 9: tens and millions of dollars man, you know, and and
- 12:52Speaker 9: and again through different types of crime families that were involved.
- 12:56Speaker 9: And again I felt it felt strange for him for
- 13:00Speaker 9: them to mention crime families and then throw out the
- 13:02Speaker 9: family's means. I was like, oh, like it was such
- 13:05Speaker 9: a weird thing that we because again we're not watching
- 13:08Speaker 9: Good Fellas. This was on a Thursday afternoon.
- 13:11Speaker 2: Levin I thought the same thing they said, Lacas Nostra,
- 13:14Speaker 2: I said that still exists.
- 13:19Speaker 9: I literally was again I would have walked by the
- 13:22Speaker 9: television if they said and you know, organized crime family.
- 13:24Speaker 9: Wh when you said mafia cosha, you said the Gambino family.
- 13:27Speaker 13: I'm like, oh, Man was like, what's going on?
- 13:31Speaker 2: These guys walking around with Derby hats and tiny cigars
- 13:34Speaker 2: And I'm like, oh boy, we got trouble now, Levin,
- 13:37Speaker 2: thank you so much for coming on. We can watch
- 13:39Speaker 2: you on WBZ TV.
- 13:41Speaker 9: You guys can real quick. You guys can have me anytime.

- 13:51Speaker 9: like you know, like tell the script. I know nothing

- 20:37Speaker 2: says she has a brain aneurysm.
- 20:39Speaker 1: There's like a little aneurysm. Whoa. They're like just stress,
- 20:43Speaker 1: and I'm like, wore the this is happening.
- 20:46Speaker 17: I always felt really bad and always protected and always
- 20:50Speaker 17: like wanted to help, and this was the first time
- 20:53Speaker 17: I didn't feel that responsibility personally.
- 20:56Speaker 1: You know, I should have stuck it out. I could
- 20:58Speaker 1: have helped, you know.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Well, as it happens, as many as seven million people
- 21:03Speaker 2: in the US have them, and they say it's very
- 21:06Speaker 2: common in women.
- 21:07Speaker 3: But I didn't know that it was caused by stress.
- 21:09Speaker 3: That's my question.
- 21:10Speaker 2: It doesn't necessarily have to be stressed, Okay, but I
- 21:15Speaker 2: guess Kim's got a lot of stress in her life

- 21:54Speaker 18: Hey, guys, it's Poller in Boston.
- 21:55Speaker 13: I got a good topic for you.
- 21:57Speaker 18: Do you have any Uber horror stories from.
- 22:00Speaker 2: An Uber ride?
- 22:02Speaker 1: Last night? We went to assembly and we got this
- 22:04Speaker 1: horrible Uber driver.
- 22:06Speaker 18: He got us back to Ever in three minutes, speeding
- 22:08Speaker 18: through traffic.
- 22:09Speaker 1: I saw my life flashed before my eyes.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Road rage, high beaming, people cutting people off, same any good. Oh,
- 22:18Speaker 2: only thing worse than that is when they drive too slow.
- 22:20Speaker 2: First of all, I want to be very careful. We
- 22:23Speaker 2: love Uber drivers, less drivers. We have a lot of
- 22:26Speaker 2: them listening every morning. But everybody's got a little pet peeve.
- 22:29Speaker 2: It's not necessarily the driver's fault. It's just they are
- 22:32Speaker 2: who they are and we are who we are. I
- 22:34Speaker 2: think they use too many scented trees.
- 22:37Speaker 1: Okay.
- 22:37Speaker 4: Well, Also, you know, if you're an Uber driver and
- 22:39Speaker 4: you're listening to this segment, which a lot of them
- 22:41Speaker 4: do that are out of the roads right now, you
- 22:43Speaker 4: can hear what people have to say. Maybe make some adjustments. Okay,
- 22:46Speaker 4: you know, back off on the scented trees.
- 22:48Speaker 1: Okay, again, we love our Uber and left driver.
- 22:51Speaker 4: We love them. One tree is fine, one scented tree.
- 22:56Speaker 4: But sometimes they'll have them on every air freshen aer
- 22:59Speaker 4: the h in the back hanging down. It becomes too much.
- 23:02Speaker 4: Heache too much.
- 23:03Speaker 3: Yeah, I have I just have a general question about
- 23:06Speaker 3: Uber and Lyft drivers. Sometimes I've been in their cars
- 23:10Speaker 3: and they're on the phone the entire time, and I'm
- 23:12Speaker 3: always wondering, like, who are they talking to?
- 23:15Speaker 2: Probably the Uber office, Yeah, you know, they're probably giving
- 23:18Speaker 2: them their next trip.
- 23:20Speaker 1: Yeah, they're on the phone the entire trip.
- 23:21Speaker 2: No, I get the impression the house calls a lot.
- 23:25Speaker 1: Oh going on?
- 23:27Speaker 2: Yeah, tell them what's going on? The kids are getting ready?
- 23:29Speaker 2: That because I mean you know, I mean they're in
- 23:30Speaker 2: the car.
- 23:31Speaker 3: All day, You're right, and they're on and sometimes overnight too.
- 23:35Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 23:35Speaker 4: I always think they're talking to you know, if they
- 23:37Speaker 4: have family in another country, yep, you know those different
- 23:40Speaker 4: time zones, Yeah, they'll be talking to them. But yeah,
- 23:44Speaker 4: the center trees, that the smell thing, if it's too much,
- 23:46Speaker 4: can be overwhelming.
- 23:47Speaker 2: Oh you have to open the window.
- 23:49Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you know, if they talk a lot,
- 23:51Speaker 4: maybe you're not in the mood to be so chatty.
- 23:54Speaker 1: I have to tell you.
- 23:55Speaker 3: I love when you get into a lift and say
- 23:57Speaker 3: that you need something very fast, so you get like
- 23:59Speaker 3: the the higher level once in a while. Oh yeah,
- 24:02Speaker 3: like just once in a while, and they have the
- 24:05Speaker 3: little bottles of water.
- 24:07Speaker 9: Oh yeah.
- 24:07Speaker 2: Now I try to go with the black car as
- 24:09Speaker 2: much as I can.
- 24:10Speaker 3: Well, okay, Michelle on the other hid, don't, I don't,
- 24:12Speaker 3: but I'm saying I had to once recently because I
- 24:15Speaker 3: had to get somewhere quick and that was that was
- 24:17Speaker 3: the one of that was available in like one minute,
- 24:20Speaker 3: and it was like so it was like, oh, this
- 24:22Speaker 3: is so.
- 24:22Speaker 4: Cool, it's luxury. I only took a black car one
- 24:25Speaker 4: time because of Bill. I went to his boat and
- 24:29Speaker 4: he ordered me an Uber and it was a black car,
- 24:32Speaker 4: and I was like, so this is how Bill lives.
- 24:36Speaker 2: I will say this. Michelle is the opposite of me,
- 24:38Speaker 2: as you know. And the problem is she's the one
- 24:40Speaker 2: that usually orders the Uber or the lyft one time,
- 24:44Speaker 2: like she finds the cheapest possible level of uber. Okay
- 24:48Speaker 2: on oh, I don't even know what it is, but
- 24:51Speaker 2: all I know, and I'm not even making this up.
- 24:52Speaker 2: One time she ordered the car. The car pulled up
- 24:55Speaker 2: to Charlestown Marine, a number one marina in the world
- 24:58Speaker 2: by the way, pulls up. It was missing the front quarter.
- 25:03Speaker 2: The car was missing the entire right front quarter. And
- 25:09Speaker 2: it pulled up. And I didn't say anything. I just
- 25:12Speaker 2: looked at Michelle and I said, really, did you hop in?
- 25:16Speaker 2: And you know what's weird is you know we were
- 25:18Speaker 2: going to like a restaurant. You know, we had to
- 25:20Speaker 2: pull right up in front of the restaurant. I had
- 25:22Speaker 2: him pull over like two blocks in the restaurant. I
- 25:24Speaker 2: didn't want to be seen getting out of the car. Well,
- 25:26Speaker 2: you know, missing a quarter.
- 25:28Speaker 1: Did you have to respect the hustle?
- 25:30Speaker 11: Right?
- 25:30Speaker 1: He was right?
- 25:31Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he was all in what seat?
- 25:34Speaker 9: Carre?
- 25:34Speaker 2: He lost the quarter somewhere and whatever, leave it there,
- 25:37Speaker 2: just keep driving.
- 25:40Speaker 4: So I have a horror story, not about uber but
- 25:43Speaker 4: about taxis because I drove a taxi. Oh when I
- 25:46Speaker 4: was younger, my father got me a job driving for
- 25:49Speaker 4: a local you know, cab company. Yeah, And so at
- 25:53Speaker 4: one time I picked up a passenger and from Malden
- 25:56Speaker 4: Station and we were driving and I was not in
- 26:00Speaker 4: my right mind, obviously, and I ended up getting into
- 26:03Speaker 4: an accident and crashed into a tree. And then you know,
- 26:07Speaker 4: he was okay and I was okay. I don't really remember,
- 26:09Speaker 4: but I apparently I crashed and then I got out
- 26:12Speaker 4: and just just ran home and left.
- 26:15Speaker 2: You left the customer and in the taxi and took off,
- 26:18Speaker 2: and he's like up against the tree.
- 26:20Speaker 4: So obviously, you know, they came to get me, and
- 26:23Speaker 4: they cuffed me and they arrested me. They brought me
- 26:26Speaker 4: into court and I just remember that the judge or
- 26:29Speaker 4: the DA was reading like the facts of the case
- 26:32Speaker 4: man and the guy. The guy gave a witness report
- 26:36Speaker 4: that I was driving and I had rap music playing
- 26:39Speaker 4: so loud that he was trying to talk to me
- 26:42Speaker 4: and say, hey, can you can you slow down a
- 26:44Speaker 4: little bit? But I was like bopping my head to
- 26:48Speaker 4: the music and I must have just not been paying attention.
- 26:51Speaker 4: H God, that was the end of my U my
- 26:54Speaker 4: taxi career. So no more.
- 26:57Speaker 15: Hey, guys, what Lisa was saying about them being on
- 27:00Speaker 15: the phone, My horror story is I got into an uber.
- 27:04Speaker 15: The guy was on his phone and I just happened
- 27:08Speaker 15: to say, excuse me, because I had to say something.
- 27:10Speaker 15: He puts his hand up and says, I'm speaking, rolls
- 27:14Speaker 15: his eyes and just ignores me. It was very intense.
- 27:20Speaker 2: Again, that's a rare incident. Okay. We love our Uber
- 27:24Speaker 2: and the drivers, although we'd love to hear from them.
- 27:26Speaker 2: I know a lot of them are listening to this show.
- 27:29Speaker 2: One other little thing that happens every once in a
- 27:32Speaker 2: while when you're traveling, right you order the Uber. Sometimes
- 27:36Speaker 2: it's very early in the morning, it's still dark out,
- 27:39Speaker 2: and once in a while I'll notice they won't even
- 27:43Speaker 2: get out of the car and you handle your own
- 27:47Speaker 2: luggage like there's no helping, like, and you've got like
- 27:50Speaker 2: four giant suitcases. You're going somewhere, you know, far, And
- 27:54Speaker 2: it rarely happens, but sometimes I'm like, how about that.
- 27:58Speaker 2: He never even got out of the car to say hello.
- 28:01Speaker 4: I don't think they're supposed to, right.
- 28:02Speaker 2: Oh, they always do.
- 28:04Speaker 1: Oh they always help me, the Uber driver.
- 28:06Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I get right out and they start taking
- 28:08Speaker 2: the luggage and you slip into the back seat.
- 28:10Speaker 4: Yeah, wow, Bill, you had to load your own luggage.
- 28:12Speaker 4: You pour through. I'm just saying it happens once in
- 28:15Speaker 4: a little baby just.
- 28:17Speaker 2: Saying you want a good tip, you know, at least
- 28:19Speaker 2: come out of the car and acknowledge, you know, can
- 28:22Speaker 2: I help you with that? I'll even say no, I'm fine.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Maybe they're not supposed to or maybe it's not part
- 28:29Speaker 1: of the deal.
- 28:29Speaker 2: No time, I'm gonnat Oh okay, just say so.
- 28:33Speaker 4: Did that affect their tip?
- 28:34Speaker 2: Is the question?
- 28:35Speaker 4: No, you still tipped? Yeah, oh you're a sucker. It
- 28:38Speaker 4: didn't affect this. So it didn't affect their tip.
- 28:41Speaker 1: He's yeah, he I because.
- 28:42Speaker 4: They're working so damn hard they.
- 28:45Speaker 2: Do it in the morning. You wanted an Uber black
- 28:47Speaker 2: a few years back to get to a wedding. It
- 28:50Speaker 2: was supposed to be a brand new Denali.
- 28:53Speaker 5: The guys showed up with a early two thousands pickup.
- 28:57Speaker 9: Truck with a would rack on the back and a couple.
- 28:59Speaker 1: On the rod.
- 29:02Speaker 4: Who was on the roof a canoe.
- 29:05Speaker 1: I gotta respect that.
- 29:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that guy.
- 29:09Speaker 8: Now it's topic time for the Billy and Lisa in the.
- 29:13Speaker 2: Morning, having a conversation here this morning about uber drivers. Now,
- 29:17Speaker 2: I want to be clear, these are not complaints. These
- 29:19Speaker 2: are more like curiosities. Question the uber drivers. And let's
- 29:24Speaker 2: go to the phones first and Katie, you're calling from Wellesley.
- 29:28Speaker 2: You have an uber a story for us?
- 29:31Speaker 6: I do.
- 29:31Speaker 5: My husband is an uber driver ood and he absolutely
- 29:35Speaker 5: hates drunk women because he says they're really really loud
- 29:37Speaker 5: and obnoxious. And he's had like a couple of people,
- 29:42Speaker 5: men in particular, proposition him for sex.
- 29:45Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it is your husband like a strikingly handsome dude.
- 29:50Speaker 5: I think he is, but I don't know what other
- 29:52Speaker 5: people think.
- 29:53Speaker 2: So let me get this. So guys get in the
- 29:56Speaker 2: backseat of his uber and come on to him. Yes, ah,
- 30:01Speaker 2: that's so cool. Did he ever bring anybody home?
- 30:04Speaker 5: No, he hasn't brought anybody home.
- 30:07Speaker 2: A good story, Yeah, I like that one. That's a
- 30:10Speaker 2: good start. Thank you Katie for the call from beautiful Wellesley.
- 30:13Speaker 2: Let's go to BC and Wallfam. Good morning BC.

- 30:21Speaker 14: strikingly handsome like the last callers husband on Chicago about
- 30:26Speaker 14: two weeks ago for a conference. So I happened to
- 30:28Speaker 14: be about six to two, maybe like three hundred and
- 30:30Speaker 14: ten pounds, And of course the uber pulls up. The
- 30:33Speaker 14: uber is a like a pres you know. Of course
- 30:37Speaker 14: the driver happens to be about the same size as me,
- 30:39Speaker 14: but about two feet shorter, and she has the seat
- 30:42Speaker 14: so far back that she's literally looking like ball the
- 30:45Speaker 14: eyeball with me. So I'm like, God, there is gonna
- 30:48Speaker 14: be a long ride. So the ride from where I
- 30:50Speaker 14: was to you know, O'Hare was about an hour and
- 30:53Speaker 14: forty five minutes.
- 30:53Speaker 2: Oh god, the.
- 30:56Speaker 14: First words out of this woman's mouth. Now, I'm married
- 30:59Speaker 14: with two kids, to play hockey, the whole thing, like,
- 31:01Speaker 14: we're always like running crazy.
- 31:02Speaker 9: And the first word out.
- 31:04Speaker 14: Of Slavey's mouth is, you know, my husband's not acting
- 31:06Speaker 14: right at home.
- 31:06Speaker 9: I'm like, oh no, I can't like I hear this
- 31:10Speaker 9: at home a lot.

- 31:29Speaker 14: like she wanted to complain about her husband precisely a
- 31:34Speaker 14: lot of the same things we were doing at home myself. So,

- 31:53Speaker 16: Uber drivers and we were just chatting about life, and
- 31:57Speaker 16: she asked if I was married. If I had, he
- 32:00Speaker 16: wasn't coming on to me, but you know, I said no,
- 32:04Speaker 16: and he was like, oh, well, you can't be happy,
- 32:07Speaker 16: and I was like, I'm very happy. And he called
- 32:10Speaker 16: me a liar.
- 32:14Speaker 2: He said, you're a liar.
- 32:15Speaker 1: Confrontational car.
- 32:17Speaker 16: He called me a liar, and then I was gotten
- 32:20Speaker 16: out of the car. But we were on the highway
- 32:22Speaker 16: and when we got to where I was going, he
- 32:24Speaker 16: was like, well, I have someone I could set you
- 32:26Speaker 16: off with. Oh god, I'm so happy I had something
- 32:30Speaker 16: to say. I was like, well, if he's anything like you,
- 32:33Speaker 16: I'm not interested. And I thought that was a.
- 32:35Speaker 2: CarH Hillary, can will we ask you a question? Are
- 32:37Speaker 2: you happy right now?
- 32:40Speaker 16: I'm very happy?
- 32:41Speaker 2: Liar. Let's go to Jordan. We're getting a lot of calls.
- 32:48Speaker 2: Good morning, Jordan, Good morning.
- 32:50Speaker 13: How are you guys doing today?
- 32:52Speaker 2: We're great?
- 32:52Speaker 6: Go ahead, So I have an uberstory.
- 32:56Speaker 13: I was with my cousins in Nashville celebrating one of
- 32:59Speaker 13: their twenty first birthday and we got in the Suber
- 33:03Speaker 13: and while we were driving, there was a ton of
- 33:05Speaker 13: traffic and.
- 33:07Speaker 6: The uber driver was driving really crazy, like stop and
- 33:10Speaker 6: go really fast. Like I was like, oh my gosh,
- 33:12Speaker 6: we're going to get into an accident, and sure enough,
- 33:14Speaker 6: he hit the person in front of us while we were.
- 33:16Speaker 16: In the car.
- 33:17Speaker 6: Everyone's okay, thank god, but it was it was just
- 33:20Speaker 6: like a bender vender and he started to drive away
- 33:22Speaker 6: and I was like, oh.
- 33:23Speaker 2: My gosh, wait a minute. It was a hit and run.
- 33:28Speaker 16: Yes, he was gonna and run with us in the car.
- 33:30Speaker 13: I was when you got to pull the car over,
- 33:33Speaker 13: and we ended up he ended up pulling over.
- 33:35Speaker 6: But it was the weirdest thing I've ever I've ever
- 33:37Speaker 6: encountered it an uber.
- 33:38Speaker 14: It was so crazy.
- 33:39Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe his license was expired or something and he
- 33:41Speaker 2: didn't want to get involved. But good one. I like that. Well,
- 33:44Speaker 2: Nashville's kind of a crazy place. Hey, do you guys
- 33:47Speaker 2: ever fill out that little survey when you book the
- 33:49Speaker 2: Uber where they ask you if you want air conditioning
- 33:52Speaker 2: or heating, or do you want to talk or not?
- 33:55Speaker 10: Talk.
- 33:55Speaker 2: They actually ask you those questions.
- 33:57Speaker 4: I have seen it. I've never filled it out me either. Yeah. Yeah,
- 34:00Speaker 4: if you don't want someone that's gonna speak to you.
- 34:02Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just too involved. Just bring the car.
- 34:05Speaker 4: Yeah, so they have an option? Do they have an
- 34:07Speaker 4: option for like helping with luggage?
- 34:09Speaker 3: I haven't seen that, but it's usually time based, right,
- 34:13Speaker 3: It's always like which car is going to get here
- 34:15Speaker 3: the quickest?
- 34:16Speaker 2: I know where he's going with the luggage thing?
- 34:18Speaker 4: Poor Bill? You know they didn't help with the luggage.
- 34:20Speaker 4: You didn't like it. This is land overdriver for the luggage.
- 34:24Speaker 4: I only help ladies and old people.
- 34:27Speaker 2: I don't help young men because even.
- 34:29Speaker 4: If you do that, they don't. Did well, Bill's not
- 34:34Speaker 4: necessarily a spring chicken, okay.
- 34:36Speaker 2: But why do we have to go there? All that
- 34:39Speaker 2: matters is that he thought I was a young man.
- 34:42Speaker 4: He did, yes, and he still got tipped regardless.
- 34:45Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 34:45Speaker 2: I mean it's just it's curiosity, I say, are not complaints,
- 34:49Speaker 2: They're curiosity. Is like, why do most immediately get out
- 34:53Speaker 2: of the car and help you with the luggage, and
- 34:55Speaker 2: then some just sit there and say, yeah, you're on
- 34:56Speaker 2: your own.
- 34:57Speaker 4: I just picture Billy, right, Lisa, you know, draft his luggage,
- 35:01Speaker 4: putting it in looking.
- 35:02Speaker 1: At the guy, yeah, giving him the eyeball.
- 35:04Speaker 18: This guy who I then scammed by a lift driver
- 35:07Speaker 18: when I was in LA two years ago.
- 35:09Speaker 13: This guy said he was a lift driver, but he
- 35:10Speaker 13: really wasn't. He had one of those signs in his car.
- 35:12Speaker 18: I didn't book it through the app. I was with
- 35:14Speaker 18: my brother two in the morning. I just wanted to
- 35:16Speaker 18: get back to the hotel, and he ended up picking
- 35:19Speaker 18: my MX card, giving me back someone else's MX card
- 35:23Speaker 18: and went on a shopping spree overnight, cracked up my
- 35:26Speaker 18: MX card on thousands of dollars worth of charges.
- 35:29Speaker 1: I was scammed, Wicks.
- 35:31Speaker 2: That happened to me. Remember somebody scammed my MX card.
- 35:35Speaker 2: Suddenly I had two hundred Uber charges within four days
- 35:39Speaker 2: on my AMX and we had a filet with AMEX.
- 35:42Speaker 2: The weird thing about it, AMEX paid for it, you know,
- 35:45Speaker 2: because they knew it was a hack, but they denied
- 35:48Speaker 2: Michelle and Uber from then on, like she did something wrong,
- 35:52Speaker 2: like that was and I have to use left lever
- 35:55Speaker 2: or I have to book the ubern now, which means
- 35:57Speaker 2: we're booking the book.
- 35:59Speaker 4: Oh right, So she's banned from Uber from the app.
- 36:02Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's because we were victims of fraud credit
- 36:05Speaker 2: card fraud, and yet they canceled Michelle's Uber account.
- 36:08Speaker 4: Well, let's go to Todd in line one.
- 36:11Speaker 2: You need him, Hey Todd, what's up? Hey?
- 36:14Speaker 4: Guys love the show.
- 36:15Speaker 12: We were in Silly about a year ago, and we
- 36:18Speaker 12: left an hour early to go to seventy six ers game.
- 36:20Speaker 12: The hotel was maybe fifteen minutes away, so we'd have
- 36:22Speaker 12: a ton of time to explore the arena. After about
- 36:25Speaker 12: twenty minutes, we look on the Uber driver's map and
- 36:28Speaker 12: it says arrival times thirty minutes. And we said, to me, know,
- 36:32Speaker 12: are you going the right way? He said, oh yeah,
- 36:33Speaker 12: I'm fine Novias area. I know ways better than Uber does,
- 36:36Speaker 12: better than Ways does. And you know, next thing we know,
- 36:39Speaker 12: we're crossing a bridge and we're like, isn't that in
- 36:40Speaker 12: New Jersey? And you know, we've had to tell us,
- 36:45Speaker 12: you know, you were not in a great place, So
- 36:48Speaker 12: what's across the bridge? We said, do us a favor,
- 36:50Speaker 12: can we just get out here? You let us out there,
- 36:53Speaker 12: and within about five seconds, the Uber app said, it
- 36:55Speaker 12: looks like you've departed early from your vehicle. Would you
- 36:58Speaker 12: like another one, and yep, they sent another car. We
- 37:02Speaker 12: got there just on time. But wow, yeah, no idea
- 37:05Speaker 12: where he was taking it.
- 37:07Speaker 2: I will say Uber is a very well run organization,
- 37:11Speaker 2: as is Lyft. Can you remember when we didn't have Uber.
- 37:15Speaker 2: You had an incredible invention.
- 37:19Speaker 4: I know Uber left. Imagine being an early investor into Uber. Yeah,
- 37:23Speaker 4: and Kutcher was an early investor that it was.
- 37:26Speaker 3: If someone would tell you that you would hop into
- 37:27Speaker 3: a stranger's car and take off, you'd be like, no,
- 37:30Speaker 3: I'm not doing that, But we all do it, and.
- 37:32Speaker 2: You order it and it's there in like four minutes.
- 37:34Speaker 4: Yeah. We were taught as kids, don't talk to strangers,
- 37:37Speaker 4: don't get in people's car, right, And that's exactly what
- 37:39Speaker 4: we're doing, and that's what we do every single day.
- 37:41Speaker 5: So I had a friend that took an Uber to
- 37:46Speaker 5: head to work and the Uber driver ends up getting
- 37:49Speaker 5: into an accident.
- 37:50Speaker 1: They get out of the car and the Uber driver goes,
- 37:53Speaker 1: I wasn't driving. You were driving, And my friend was like, uh, no, you.
- 37:58Speaker 2: Were driving, and though he was extremely intoxicated, got arrested.
- 38:04Speaker 5: On the spot.
- 38:05Speaker 2: Yeah you're not driving from the back seat.
- 38:07Speaker 4: No, no, you know you just can't drive from the
- 38:10Speaker 4: back seat and he'll never be an Uber driver again.
- 38:13Speaker 2: Yeah, which is sad.
- 38:15Speaker 4: And it's sad. They make decent money. I mean, it's
- 38:17Speaker 4: all about how much you work.
- 38:18Speaker 2: It's a hustle.
- 38:19Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 38:20Speaker 4: My wife's two uncles have a side job doing ubering.
- 38:24Speaker 4: Make a lot of money, make good money. Oh hustle,
- 38:26Speaker 4: you know, as a second job.
- 38:28Speaker 1: So good morning, it's the Mayor of the South. Then
- 38:31Speaker 1: I'm taking a walk. It's chilly out. I had to
- 38:34Speaker 1: go get my mega million's ticket because it's worth seven
- 38:37Speaker 1: hundred million. You know, could you rerun my Uber story?
- 38:41Speaker 3: Remember when I opened the back seat of the Uber
- 38:44Speaker 3: and there was a big dildo on the seat.
- 38:48Speaker 2: That was a good one.
- 38:49Speaker 7: You know.
- 38:49Speaker 4: We tried to forget that story, mister Mayor, but yeah,
- 38:51Speaker 4: that was back in April. How can we forget Yeah day,
