• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Real or fake headlines, brother? Let's go.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Man's Texas Chainsaw Massacre Halloween display is too scary. Are
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: we talking real? Are we talking fake?
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: I'm going to go real on this.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Me too, I think.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: I think sometimes people can go overboard, and you're dealing
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: with little kids trick-or-treating.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go real.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Well, also think about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was awful.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Chainsaw the Massacre.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: No, it was awful.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: There's a Scottish man named Craig Vass who's getting flack
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: from his neighbors for putting up a display from the
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That is too scary. His response is
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: the kids around here would be disappointed if he didn't
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: put on a scary show at Halloween. So he's kind
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: of fighting back on it. I did look up the
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: pictures in the videos. It's, you know, it's Leatherface cutting
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: up a body on his front lawn. That's... Oh, much there.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. After you stop screaming, you'll start
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: talking about it. I will say, as a grown man,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I went on one of those haunted hayrides years ago,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: and the guy with the leather mask jumped out of
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the woods with a real chainsaw. Yeah. And that affected
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: me for a long time.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: They still do that. I was at one recently.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really creepy. Well, you know.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: The Barrett's Haunted House? I took the kids down there
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: on the South Shore, and a guy jumped out in
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: the parking lot.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I was terrified. With a chainsaw?
• 7:26
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: It's the sound.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Oh, man.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: And on the hayride, too, they can touch you. If
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: you're on the back, they can put their hands on you.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Oh, boy.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: Typically, they don't.
• 7:38
  Speaker 10: No.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Next headline here. Man arrested after posing as a museum
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: tour guide. And inventing entire fake histories for every painting.
• 7:49
  Speaker 7: Oh.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Are we real or are we fake?
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: I really hope this is real because I'm a fan
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: of this guy if he really exists.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to go real on this.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: We're going real.

• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Listen. Real stories. Real headlines here. Last one. Strip club
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: linked to two cases of potentially deadly bacterial disease. I
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: ask you, is it real or is it fake?
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: I could see this happening very easily.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: I could see this happening very easily.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Probably much more frequently than you think.
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: So we're going real, Lise? We're going real.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Going real?

  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: A strip club in San Francisco is part of a
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: public health investigation due to a possible spread of tuberculosis.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Ooh. Ooh.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: A little more than you asked for there at the
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: strip club.
• 11:10
  Speaker 11: Spaces that are crowded with poor ventilation or where you
• 11:13
  Speaker 11: have very close contact with someone that was contagious are
• 11:16
  Speaker 11: going to be higher risk for transmission, where they actually
• 11:19
  Speaker 11: have symptoms such as fevers, coughing, weight loss, and night sweats,
• 11:25
  Speaker 11: at which point they would be contagious to other people
• 11:27
  Speaker 11: as well.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, how often do you think they wipe down
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the pole?
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: Right. Or just being in close quarters with people coughing
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: all over you.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: That's a good question.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: Well, we could ask my Uncle Mark. Actually, yes.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Because he owns a strip club in Key West. Yes.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: Yes, good point.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Like, what's their cleaning protocol?
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: So if you're listening to this radio program in San
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Francisco on the iHeart app, be careful. Because not only,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: you know, you're dealing with tuberculosis now on top of
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: everything else you've got to deal with.
• 11:58

• 13:05
  Speaker 5: any of this, thinks that I'm just living my life normally. Meanwhile,
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: I'm here literally learning the piano, writing songs, coming up
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: with tier lists, buying hundreds and hundreds of dollars worth
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: of costumes, coming up with skits and sketches and rhymes
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: and literally doing the work for this.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, when you think of it, it's the best friend
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: and or the significant other that really benefits. Because they
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: didn't do anything.
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: And now they're going to New York all expenses. They're
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: going to two Harry Styles shows.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Well, especially if you win, you have to choose somebody
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: to go with.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Who do you pick? That's not our problem.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Not our problem.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: The problem is awarding the winner.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: And by the way, the music video for Harry's newest
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: song coming up, Roses, drops at noon today. We have
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: a teaser clip.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Oh, this thing again. This song.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Give me a second, Bill. I mean, how bad do
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: you want it?
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: What did you do with Harry's clip? I never pulled it.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: It's coming out at noon. We want to be the
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: first to hear of it.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: All right, hold on. Let me go to YouTube. Hold on.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: Let me see. Coming Up Roses.
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: Boom.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, there you go, Bill.
• 14:11
  Speaker 11: Ready?
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Here it comes.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Get ready. Get ready.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: I'm ready.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Do you feel better now? It's a great song.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry I asked.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: I know. No, it's a good song. It's very downtrodden.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Of course it is.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: It's all part of Harry Ween.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: Well, people were talking about why they think it's being
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: released now, and he has a lyric in it that
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: talks about the time change.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: And so people are like... This weekend. Yeah, like.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: So help me God, producer Riley, whose team are you on?
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Are you trying to get me to track down the
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: lyric now?
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no. Well, you at least have to
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: play the clip again now.
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: Oh, my God.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Okay, the secret line might be right there in that clip. No,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: we haven't noticed.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: No, I'm not capping. Come on.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Hey, Voice of Logan is not only still going on.
• 14:51
  Speaker 11: Oh, my God.

  Speaker 1: You get one vote. Oh, really?
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: And who they like, because we're kind of I'm not
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: going to say, but everyone's kind of split on who
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: they like.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's right. All weekend, people were asking me, so
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: who are you voting for? None of your business.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: They were all they were all fantastic.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: All eight of them.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: But when you think back and I keep doing this,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: when the two of us went to Logan Airport to
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: launch this whole thing several, several weeks ago. I never
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: would have imagined. It was on Fallon. It was on Kimmel.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: I don't think they did either. NBC Nightly News. ABC
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Nightly News with David Muir over the weekend. We have
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: that clip right here.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Funny tonight, our own Lee Goldberg, who's from Boston, on
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: the search for the perfect Boston accent.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: You know it when you hear it. Well, I got
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: a number.
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: How do you like them apples?
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: That distinctly Boston dialect and energy unique to Bay State locals.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: We know what sells. Every man, regular guy.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Boston guy. Yes, you can hold the R's.
• 16:06
  Speaker 11: Sargass?
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Swampscott?
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: Revere?
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: The Habba? Are you kidding me? I packed it and
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: then unpacked it. This city runs on iced coffee.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: And Logan International Airport, one of the busiest in the nation,
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: is on the hunt to find its next iconic voice.
• 16:20
  Speaker 5: Welcome to Boston Logan International Airport.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Whether you're grabbing a lobster roll by the harbor.
• 16:26
  Speaker 8: Waiting in line for a cannoli at the North End.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Or paying your respects to the Green Monster like it's
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: a sacred landmark.
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: Because it is.

  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: We will crown the winner right here in the Billy
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: and Lisa show. Unbelievable.
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: Suspense.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: How do you like them apples?
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: Next voice of Boston.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: You know, you're just like your mother. Lisa, you've got
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Mel Robbins calling into the show this morning.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: She's on the cover of People magazine. This is a
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: really incredible interview she did. She's at her house up
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: in Vermont. So she's going to call in at 910.
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: And we're just going to talk to her about that experience,
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: what it's been like. You know, the past couple of
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: years and her world tour, Oprah, Oprah, Benny Blanco. Her
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: podcast is actually recorded in Boston.
• 17:20
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: Which is equally as cool.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: Obviously, the big one. I mean, she's had so many
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: big ones, but Oprah was recent. But the Benny Blanco,
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: I really want to get into because I want to
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: know what he's really like.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I can't wait.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: So nine, 10. It's funny when we brought it up.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: It's like Friday, I think. I said, hey, Mel's on
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: the cover of People magazine. And within 60 seconds, Lisa
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: had Mel's people on the phone. And now she's calling
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: in this morning at 910.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: Well, it's been such an amazing journey for her after
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: the Let Them Theory came out.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: So it's really. And I feel like it all kind
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: of began at the book club.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: Big Night Live.
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: I was.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was that was a moment. We like to
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: call it the book club bump.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: It was the book club bump.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Imagine, traveled the world right after Lisa's book club. Just saying.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Drake celebrated his 40th birthday this weekend in New York City, 400.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: That's 400 of his closest friends and family. And they
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: had luxury gift bags. They had cash prizes adding up
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: to a million dollars. When was the last time you
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: went to a birthday party and you got a chunk
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: of a million?
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: No, I'm just grateful for the cake, honestly.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: It's a good cake. It's all good.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Slice of cake and a handshake.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: Also, it's a surprise stage performance with the Backstreet Boys.
• 18:43
  Speaker 8: There you go.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: You know, for my birthday, my wife got Chipotle catering,
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: and I was perfectly happy with that.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: There were no luxury bags?
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: There was no luxury bags. There was tacos, there was burritos,
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: and there was sombreros.
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Jay-Z.
• 18:58
  Speaker 8: Jay-Z.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Supposedly the halftime show at the Super Bowl. Still not confirmed,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: by the way. He did have a show in L.A.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: In fact, he had two shows in L.A. this weekend
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: with a star-studded finale Saturday night that included Dr. Ray, Snoop,
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: and My Man Too Short.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Love it. Wow, we're playing Blow the Whistle on Kiss 108?
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: What's my favorite word, bud?
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: Tap.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: No.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Do you just know the lyrics?
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Bitch. You know I'm going to ask you about my
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: man Too Short. What do you know about Too Short?
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, he's a West Coast legend. Absolute legend.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: You're guessing he's very short?
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess. But he had Blow the Whistle was
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: one of his many big songs. So it was cool.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: It looked good. Yeah, I think Jay-Z Super Bowl, if
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: that happens, I mean, he's going to have to pick
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: and choose who he brings out. He only got 15 minutes.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's brought out everybody.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Everybody.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Can I ask a dumb question?
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: If he's going to bring out so many people, why
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: couldn't he get any of them to do it? That's
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: like a genuine question.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think it was really a problem him
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: finding people. I think he always knew he was going
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: to make himself the halftime show.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: See, that's what I think.
• 20:12
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: And this year makes sense because this has been his
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: comeback year.
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: So it would make sense.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: And all the speculation just softened the blow of him
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: actually doing it.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: But why is it taking so long to make the announcement?
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: It's every September, every year.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: And it's still not confirmed.
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: No. No.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Friday night, he brought out John Legend and DJ Khaled,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: and his daughter, Blue Ivy, had a piano performance.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: That was very cool.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing she'll be in the Super Bowl. You never
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: see the other two kids, though.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: The twins.
• 20:40
  Speaker 10: I know, you never do.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, does that become a problem at some point?
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: No, maybe they just don't want to be in the spotlight.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: What about me? Yeah, Blue Ivy's definitely talented.
• 20:48
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: The weekend this weekend.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Say weekend again, Bill.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Go ahead.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Like no other weekend. The Weeknd, this weekend, had a
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: show in Hong Kong, and he debuted a new song
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: called Hong Kong. Certainly sounds like The Weeknd. Say it again.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Certainly sounds like The Weeknd. The Weeknd. So Taylor Swift
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: is Weeknd. celebrated 20 years since her first album. And
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: I guess, producer Riley, you and all the other Swifties
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: were expecting some big performance or announcement or something, and
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: you got nothing.
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: You know, I was a little bit holding my breath,
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: hoping that debut Taylor's version would be announced because she
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: said that she hasn't recorded already. We're just like waiting
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: for it. But now I'm thinking maybe her birthday after
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: the Grammys all happened in November is Her birthday, December 13th.
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: I just don't think that she'd let 20 years go
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: by without doing anything.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: What else can she do? Right. She's done it all.
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: So I don't know.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: So no announcement this weekend. No announcement. Oh, man, Bill.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: And a great weekend. Great weekend. There's nothing like being alone.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Well, you weren't alone.
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: You weren't.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was a couple of weekends ago.
• 22:21
  Speaker 11: You were, yeah.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: No, you were at the Wicked Night in Salem, Massachusetts.
• 22:25
  Speaker 7: Good morning, Kiss 108.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: This is Audrey.
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: I won the tickets to the Wicked Night on the
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: Wharf this past Saturday.
• 22:33
  Speaker 7: I went with my best friend.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: Ivana, and we had so, so, so much fun.
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: We partied it up with Billy and the rest of
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: the group, and the food was amazing, and we.
• 22:43
  Speaker 12: Just cannot express.
• 22:44
  Speaker 13: Enough how much fun we had and how grateful we
• 22:47
  Speaker 13: are for the experience.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: We love Kiss 108.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they were a lot of fun. Great winners. Great winners.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Audrey and Alana. So Celts are hosting the Bulls in
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: the Garden. What's this with all this drama going on, Justin,
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: between Jason Tatum.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: And Jalen Brown? Well, it started late last week. Jason
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Tatum released a clip of a documentary that he had
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: where he talked about his reaction to finding out that
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: Jalen Brown was traded and how he was shocked about it.
• 23:10
  Speaker 9: I just got done playing pickup on Thursday.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: Oh!
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Sham walk over and he hand me the towel. He's like, yo,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: put this over your face.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Don't react.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: They just traded him. I'm like, where? He said, Philly.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: He traded him down the street.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: So that clip hit the internet and Jalen Brown commented
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: with a blue baseball cap emoji, which means cap means
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: that he's lying. You know, he's capping basically. Yeah. So
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: then Tatum was asked about it the next day. hey,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: what's going on? Is there an issue here?
• 23:44
  Speaker 9: I reached out to him the day he got traded.
• 23:47
  Speaker 9: I called him. I texted him. And I understand people
• 23:50
  Speaker 9: process things differently. So for me, at this point in
• 23:55
  Speaker 9: our lives, we're too old to be having our relationship
• 24:02
  Speaker 9: discussed X, Y, Z on the internet.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: So then the next day, Jalen Brown was asked, is
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: there beef?
• 24:09
  Speaker 12: Now.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: His response is interesting.
• 24:12
  Speaker 12: There's no beef. Jason comes from a wonderful family. We've
• 24:16
  Speaker 12: accomplished some great things. He's a hell of a basketball player.
• 24:19
  Speaker 12: He's got a great PR team.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: See, that's the key right there. Before the end there,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: he's got a great PR team. Because if you listen
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: to Tatum's response there, it sounds very, very PR.
• 24:31
  Speaker 12: There's no beef, but, you know, it might be a
• 24:33
  Speaker 12: little lamb chops and some gravy.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: You should stay ready at all times.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: No beef. There's something there.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Just lamb chops and gravy.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: There's something there.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's something there.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: They got the Bulls in the Garden tonight. Bruins, by
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: the way, have won seven of their last eight games.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: The Chiefs lost their first game last night.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, the Chiefs?
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: The Dolphins won their first game yesterday, and the Patriots
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: are playing the Dolphins this coming Sunday, and it's a
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: 4-30 kickoff. We like that.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, wild weekend.
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: It's a wild weekend.
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Brought to you by Dover Rug and Home. More designers,
• 25:05

• 25:18

• 25:21
  Speaker 3: The weekend from the planet fitness kiss 108 studios we're
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: back with billy and lisa in the morning.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: And lisa i love this just a couple of days
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: after mel robbins hits the cover of people magazine you
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: have her on.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: The phone yes we do hi mel Hi, guys.
• 25:40
  Speaker 7: How are you?
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Thanks for joining us.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it happened.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: I was scrolling on my Instagram.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: I follow you.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: It popped in Mel Robbins on the cover of People
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: magazine with the headline. One decision changed my life. And
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: I had to text your assistant Lynn and say, is
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: there any way Mel can join us?
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: And you said yes.
• 25:59
  Speaker 7: Here I am. I was excited to talk to you guys.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been a couple of years since the Lisa's
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: Book Club appearance. And boy, you've had such a journey.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: I think you've been to five countries, 27 cities on
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: the Let Them Theory tour. Did you ever expect that
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: those two words would have such a positive impact on
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: so many people all over the world?
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: I knew that the theory and both let them and
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: the second part saying let me works and it's powerful
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: because it changed my life and my relationships with my
• 26:33
  Speaker 7: family in particular. But, I mean, you would have to
• 26:36
  Speaker 7: be a sociopath to stand in the beginning of something
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: and say, oh, this is going to be really, you know,
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: global change. It blows me away every single day that
• 26:46
  Speaker 7: this book is now in 67 languages and the tour
• 26:50
  Speaker 7: sold out globally. bigger thing is just how it's giving
• 26:54
  Speaker 7: people control and peace and power back in their lives.
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: Because when you say let them, you remind yourself that
• 27:01
  Speaker 7: it's stupid to waste any time and energy trying to
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: control the uncontrollables. So it's pretty incredible.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Well, I actually let them, I used it with Billy
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: this morning.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: He was having an issue.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: We were talking off the air and I said, Billy,
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: just let him, let her. And Instantly, he became unstuck.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: You could see it on his face. Yeah, Mel, instantly
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: I was relieved. Everything was fine.
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: Well, that's because, you know, other people are idiots and
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: they're going to drive you crazy. And they, you know,
• 27:30
  Speaker 7: you want everybody to change and be exactly how we
• 27:34
  Speaker 7: want them to be. But that's not how life works.
• 27:36
  Speaker 7: And so when you just... recognize that other people are
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: who they are, allow them to have their moods and
• 27:43
  Speaker 7: their opinions and their feelings, and just focus on your
• 27:46
  Speaker 7: response to it. Life gets a lot easier. I can't
• 27:48
  Speaker 7: believe how much energy and time I wasted on stupid things, honestly. Traffic,
• 27:54
  Speaker 7: people's moods, being worried about making everybody happy. It's just
• 27:59
  Speaker 7: so much easier to give people space, let them be
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: who they are and who they're not, and then just
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: focus on what's worth your time to respond to and
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: what's not.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: Well, you talk about in this People Magazine interview, the
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: one decision that changed your life.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: What was that?
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: It sounds so stupid, you guys. I mean, honestly. 16
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: years ago, my husband and I were 800 grand in debt.
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: And I.
• 28:23
  Speaker 7: And, you know, when you get into a moment in
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: your life, you guys, where your life starts falling apart,
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: it's interesting. You can know what to do, but it
• 28:31
  Speaker 7: feels impossible to do it. You know you need to
• 28:33
  Speaker 7: look for a job. You know you need to ask
• 28:35
  Speaker 7: for help. You know you need to lay off the booze.
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: You know you need to stop screaming at everybody. And
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: yet you don't do any of it. And so the
• 28:42
  Speaker 7: decision that changed my life, honest to goodness, was just
• 28:45
  Speaker 7: deciding that to stop blaming all my problems on my
• 28:50
  Speaker 7: husband and the world around me and recognize that there's
• 28:54
  Speaker 7: only one person that can fix this, and it's me.
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: And instead of wishing somebody would show up and save me,
• 29:00
  Speaker 7: I needed to start acting like the person that I
• 29:03
  Speaker 7: wished would come. And that person's obvious. If you stop
• 29:07
  Speaker 7: and think about your own life and the areas of
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: your life where you're not happy, you probably know exactly
• 29:12
  Speaker 7: what you could or should be doing. Well, that was me.
• 29:15
  Speaker 7: I spent a lot of time thinking about it, but
• 29:16
  Speaker 7: thinking about it doesn't get it done. And so one morning,
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: it was a Tuesday in February 2008, right outside of
• 29:23
  Speaker 7: Boston in Sherbourne, Massachusetts. And I just decided instead of
• 29:27
  Speaker 7: laying in bed and being upset about my life and
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: staring at the ceiling, I need to get up. I
• 29:33
  Speaker 7: need to look for a job. And I just started
• 29:36
  Speaker 7: acting like the person I wanted to be instead of
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: acting like I was the person I felt like, which
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: was a giant loser. I, I think.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: Honestly, that's like the simplest advice, but you're right. You
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: have to just visualize who you want to be and
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: then just start living it and start doing it.
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: Well, It's true. I don't know if I'm the dumbest
• 29:57
  Speaker 7: person on the planet, and it took me into my
• 30:00
  Speaker 7: 40s and 50s to understand that life is honestly kind
• 30:04
  Speaker 7: of simple. The first one is you're never going to
• 30:06
  Speaker 7: feel like doing the things you need to do that
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: make your life better. And the good news is you
• 30:11
  Speaker 7: can force yourself to just act like the person you
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: want to be, and through the actions, not the feelings,
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: through the actions, you become that person. And the second
• 30:20
  Speaker 7: thing I learned is trying to change everybody around me
• 30:23
  Speaker 7: just makes me miserable. And trying to control everything makes
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: me stressed out. And there's an easier way to go
• 30:30
  Speaker 7: through life. It's stoicism. It's basically let other people be
• 30:34
  Speaker 7: who they are and focus on yourself. Focus on showing
• 30:38
  Speaker 7: up in a way that makes you proud of yourself.
• 30:40
  Speaker 7: And oftentimes what's going to make you proud of yourself
• 30:43
  Speaker 7: is not waiting to feel like doing the things you
• 30:46
  Speaker 7: need to do. The things that make you proud of
• 30:48
  Speaker 7: yourself are doing the hard things in life. And then
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: after you get the hard things done, life gets easier.
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: So we're a big fan of your podcast. And recently
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: you had a special visitor, Oprah Winfrey. You also had
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: Benny Blanco, by the way, which we thought was really cool.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: Can you walk us through how that made you feel
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: when she showed up in your space?
• 31:10
  Speaker 7: Well, I needed a diaper. I mean, I could not
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: believe it. That she was the single biggest inspiration to me.
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: I couldn't believe she came to Boston. I mean, I
• 31:24
  Speaker 7: thought that if I ever got a chance to interview her,
• 31:26
  Speaker 7: I would go to where she lives. And so the
• 31:29
  Speaker 7: fact that she made the trip to Boston was the
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: biggest deal to me. And the other piece of it was,
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: you know, she said on the show, That she saw
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: herself in me and she saw that I had taken
• 31:44
  Speaker 7: everything that she was trying to teach and 25 years
• 31:47
  Speaker 7: on television. And I'm paying it forward in my own way.
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: And to have somebody whose work you admire, admire you
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: back on your own show. I mean, she even said
• 31:58
  Speaker 7: you have become the voice of this generation, helping people grow.
• 32:02
  Speaker 7: lead themselves back home to themselves. To hear those words
• 32:06
  Speaker 7: come out of her mouth, it was kind of one
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: of those moments where I was listening and I was
• 32:10
  Speaker 7: also saying to myself, shut up, Mel. Don't say anything.
• 32:12
  Speaker 7: Don't say anything.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: I think you actually cried at that moment.
• 32:16
  Speaker 7: I did.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: I really did because she didn't need to say it.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Oprah cried too.
• 32:22
  Speaker 7: It was such a generous thing. Yeah, she did. It
• 32:25
  Speaker 7: was a very... It was a very, very moving experience. And,
• 32:31
  Speaker 7: you know, our show is really about impact. It's not
• 32:34
  Speaker 7: about virality. And so I'm not really looking for a
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: press moment. I'm trying to figure out whoever is sitting
• 32:40
  Speaker 7: in the chair, whether it's a world-renowned researcher or it's
• 32:43
  Speaker 7: Oprah Winfrey or it's Benny Blanco or it's one of
• 32:46
  Speaker 7: you guys. I just think to myself, how can I
• 32:49
  Speaker 7: structure a conversation with you? to make the biggest impact
• 32:54
  Speaker 7: in the life of the person listening. Not so that
• 32:57
  Speaker 7: they're eavesdropping on a conversation, but that we co-create it
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: knowing that somebody's listening to this podcast as a way
• 33:05
  Speaker 7: to feel better and do better in their life. And
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: so I think she really felt very safe to open
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: up and very aligned with the intention, which was impact.
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she mentioned listening and mentorship and, you know, who
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: are your Sherpas in life? Like, who are some of
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: your mentors coming through?
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: For me?
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 33:28
  Speaker 7: I really, you know, my big mentors is going to last.
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: Oprah Winfrey, Delilah, Howard Stern. I really look at people.
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: Mr.
• 33:39
  Speaker 7: Rogers is another one. I look at people who have
• 33:43
  Speaker 7: a real Dolly Parton is another one. People who are
• 33:46
  Speaker 7: very positive, who are really kind. And even though I
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: would say Howard Stern was necessarily kind in the early days,
• 33:55
  Speaker 7: he has a very generous spirit. He's very curious. And
• 33:58
  Speaker 7: what I love about all of those people is they
• 34:01
  Speaker 7: are exactly who they are. they are not changing to
• 34:05
  Speaker 7: make other people happy. They began with almost no following,
• 34:10
  Speaker 7: just doing their thing in their own way. And their
• 34:14
  Speaker 7: massive businesses and their impact grew one person at a time.
• 34:20
  Speaker 7: And so those are the people that I really admire
• 34:24
  Speaker 7: and whose businesses I've studied. And for me, I'm always
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: thinking about the person who's standing in line with me
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: at the grocery store. That's the person I'm talking to.
• 34:36
  Speaker 7: Like all of us, we're just trying to get through
• 34:38
  Speaker 7: the day. We're trying to feel better, do better. We
• 34:40
  Speaker 7: want that for our families. And if I can put
• 34:42
  Speaker 7: out anything that makes somebody that's standing in line with
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: me at the grocery store have a little bit better day,
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: a little bit better life, then I've done a good job.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Mel, I got to ask you, I'm like six episodes
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: into the new season of Nobody Wants This with Kristen Bell,
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: and she and her sister on the series have their
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: own podcast, and they did a thing that was kind
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: of a take on Let Them, and they called it
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Make Them. Were you aware of that?
• 35:05
  Speaker 7: Yes. Yes, I was. We were trying to figure out
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: a really fun cross promotion and it just didn't work
• 35:14
  Speaker 7: with one of their schedules. I think it's hilarious. And,
• 35:18
  Speaker 7: you know, the thing is, is that I've tried that
• 35:20
  Speaker 7: method of making them my whole life. And all it
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: did was make my husband pissed off at me and
• 35:27
  Speaker 7: make my kids annoyed with me. And so, you know,
• 35:31
  Speaker 7: the make them method, I believe, is what we're all
• 35:34
  Speaker 7: currently doing. And there's a sneakier, actually more strategic way,
• 35:40
  Speaker 7: which is step back a little bit. And when you
• 35:42
  Speaker 7: give people space, they actually think they're changing for themselves.
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Imagine that.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Like I did this morning when you just said, Billy,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: let them.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: I did.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: It was instant. What podcast do you listen to? What
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: books are you reading?
• 35:56
  Speaker 7: Oh, girls, get ready. Okay, everybody, I am a fantasy freak.
• 36:01
  Speaker 7: And maybe it's because the world seems like a dumpster
• 36:03
  Speaker 7: fire right now. So I can't like pay attention. I'm
• 36:06
  Speaker 7: very active, you know, in some ways, but I won't consume,
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: you know, the headlines. But I am a Court of
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: Thorn and Rose's Freak. I love that series. And tomorrow,
• 36:20
  Speaker 7: book number six, A Court of Splintered Harmony is coming out.
• 36:25
  Speaker 7: And I already, I'm going to be at the local
• 36:28
  Speaker 7: bookstore in line waiting to buy it. I also have
• 36:31
  Speaker 7: the audio book down there. pre-downloaded in case I can't
• 36:35
  Speaker 7: get the hardcover. I love fantasy. In fact, one of
• 36:39
  Speaker 7: the things that is a big kind of goal of mine,
• 36:42
  Speaker 7: just for fun, is I really want to write a
• 36:45
  Speaker 7: fantasy series with my daughters. And so I'm just into fantasy.
• 36:49
  Speaker 7: And so I don't have time to listen to podcasts
• 36:51
  Speaker 7: because I got a port of Slytherin Harmony queued up
• 36:54
  Speaker 7: and ready to go.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: Sounds like you have a book club on the way, Liz.
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: I think so. Mel Robbins does fantasy.
• 37:01
  Speaker 7: Do you do fantasy in your book club?
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: I haven't done it yet.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: It's on my list for 2027.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, fantasy.
• 37:09
  Speaker 7: Fantasy is absolutely, but I love them all. I love Direbound.
• 37:14
  Speaker 7: I love the Alchemist series. I love all fantasies. Amazing.
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: Well, Mel, thank you so much. Congratulations on the cover
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: of People. And hopefully maybe we'll see you at another
• 37:27

  Speaker 13: feeling it. even though she thought she could do it.
• 39:48
  Speaker 13: And then when it came down to the wire, she's
• 39:50
  Speaker 13: having like a panic attack because maybe she just wanted
• 39:54
  Speaker 13: to please her boyfriend and say, yeah, okay, I'll go.
• 39:57
  Speaker 13: But then as it got closer, it got really scary.
• 40:00
  Speaker 13: So I don't think he should hold it over her
• 40:02
  Speaker 13: head if she doesn't want to go.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: See, I disagree. He's clearly a Halloween nut. The week of,
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: you're going to cancel?
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: No, you got to go. Just go. It's going to
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: be interesting.
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: It's like when I go in the haunted house with
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: my wife. She just puts her head down and holds
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: on to me.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: I do that too.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's scary.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you do it.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: You just got to do it.
• 40:21
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So that led to people sending talkbacks about their
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: haunted experiences. Have you ever stayed in a haunted house?
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: I haven't slept in a haunted house, but my cousin
• 40:32
  Speaker 6: on their other side, my uncle's side, his sister had
• 40:35
  Speaker 6: a house. I believe it was in Melrose that was
• 40:38
  Speaker 6: super haunted. I think the town of Melrose kind of
• 40:39
  Speaker 6: knows about it, too, because people would drive by, like
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: see a little boy waving the window. They had reports
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: of like their laundry being put in the laundry shoes
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: in their house because it's like a wicked old built house.
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: A couple ballroom dancing, a guy that looks like Santa Claus.
• 40:53
  Speaker 6: I went there one time and the window went up
• 40:55
  Speaker 6: and down and I ran.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: Okay, goodbye. The little boys thing and little girls, the
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: children ghosts freak me out.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, me too. Ballroom dancing, though. That's kind of cool.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: You know what I don't need? A little boy ghost
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: waving at me. I don't need it.
• 41:12
  Speaker 5: I don't. Good morning.
• 41:13
  Speaker 7: It's Sunny from the Seacoast.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: My husband slept above a funeral home in college because
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: the rent was dirt cheap.
• 41:20
  Speaker 7: And he woke up to a little boy standing over
• 41:22
  Speaker 7: his bed.
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Nope.
• 41:24
  Speaker 7: No, thank you.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: Have a great day. Oh, boy.
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: We'll see you in the morning tomorrow. Bye, everybody.
