  Speaker 1: Oh boy, here we go Friday After Show podcast. It
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: is what's today's date? July seventeenth. I was so mixed
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: up because Billy said the sixteenth in his first newscast.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: He said, good morning, It's Friday July sixteenth, and I
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: was like, is it the sixteenth or the seventeenth? It
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: just gets crazy the days get jumbled together. But it
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: is Friday, July seventeenth. Friday feels good, doesn't it. It's
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: been a long week, busy week, first week back from vacation,
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: in a busy, busy Friday show. Wow. So I got
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: to start with this. So I saw the press conference
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: of Mora Heally, you know, announcing the new legislation. She's
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: trying to, you know, stop people from profiting off of
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: selling concert tickets and sporting event tickets and all that
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: good stuff. Noah Khan actually jumped on. It was pre recorded,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: but it looked like a FaceTime, which was very cool
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: when she actually named the bill after Noah Khan, the
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Great Divide. So I watched the story, probably like an
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: hour later, I get a message from Mora Heey's office
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: asking if we would have the governor on the show
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: today to talk about it. And I was like, wow,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: that's cool. So, you know, we set it all up
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: and the Governor was on our way to Worcester to
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: do an event for Bob Coosey Celtics Legend, and she
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: joined the show. I tried to get her to come
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: in to talk about it, but she ended up calling
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: in and she was on time too. You know. Her
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: people were like, listen, Mara is probably the busiest person around,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: so we're gonna do our best, but you have to
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: give us some leeway. And it was supposed to be
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: at eight ten. She goes, I'll let you know when
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: her schedule things get crazy. I'm like, no problem, will
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: adjust as best we can. And I got the text
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: that she was going to call at eight oh eight.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: So it all worked out and it was really great
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: to have her on. It's a great thing. Really. I mean,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: how much have we talked about the concert ticket thing?
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: And you know, to be honest with you, it sucks
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: all around in one way that we could look at it,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: which we really don't, But one way we could is
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: that the demand and the prices of the of the
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: resold tickets makes winning even with us even more important, right,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: so more people listen to try to win the tickets
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: that we give away because we get the tickets. That's
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: one way to look at it. We really don't. We
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: know it sucks either way, and you know, either way,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: we're gonna give tickets. That's what we're a radio station.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: That's what we do. It's part of why you listen, right,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: You listen for the content, you listen for the personalities,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: you listen to win stuff. That's why I always listen
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: to the radio too, you know. So we know it sucks,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: but this is a really amazing thing that she's doing.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: And the Noah con piece is amazing as well. So
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: hopefully it'll pass, it'll go through and she'll be able
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: to get it, you know, into effect. But it was
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: really cool. She talked about, obviously, the bill, She talked
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: about the World Cops. She talked about the Scotts. We
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: had the Scots in, the two guys from Scotland with
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the cone. It was so funny. I went and got them.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I gotta make a shout out to Sean and Boston.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: He's an influencer, sorry, content creator. That's a little fun fact.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: They don't like being called influencers. I don't know about
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Sean but just in general, we've learned that kind of
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: there's different worlds right where in the radio world then
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: you have the content creator slash influencer world. They don't
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: like being called influencers. They are content creators, which I
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: agree with they are. Anyway, Sean and Boston is on
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Billy's TV show and he's the one that hooked up
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the Scots. He was actually with them. They got off
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the plane from Scotland with the Cone, they met with
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the governor and then they were hanging out with Sean
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: and Boston. He kind of put us in touch and
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: they came in today and I went and got them
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: out at the front and there they were with the
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Cone and they're Kilts. It was it was super cool.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: They're really, really really fun guys. And I didn't know this.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: They're not, like, you know, huge soccer fans. They were
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: kind of watching all the action when Scotland was here
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: to play and all the stuff happening on social and
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: you know, they explained this during the interview and that
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: kind of prompted them to do something with Boston and
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Governor Haley reached out to them and yeah, yeah, they
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: here all weekend long. You can track the Cone Bostoncone
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: dot com. If you do see the Cone, look for
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: us signatures. Billy, Lisa, myself from producer Riley all signed
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: the Cone and they have an events Sunday at the Dubliner,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: a really cool event that you can check out Bostoncone
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: dot com for those details. Again, it was a very
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: very busy show. The Governor of the Scott's God. The
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: new Gracy Abrams album, which you know I'm not obviously
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I like all music, you know, Gracy Abrams super talented.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Am I super into Gracie? No? I do like? That's
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: so true? Was a smash. I like that song hit
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the Walls good. I like it, you know. But the
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: song Daughter from Hell, man, this one struck a chord
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: with me, you know, because it's basically an apology slash
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: thank you note to her mom, you know, for being
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the daughter from Hell. And I've talked about this a
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: million times. I felt this one because, you know, is
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: it karma that I was such an asshole as a
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: kid and now my son, who actually is not doing
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: much better, but you know, he's been a wild child
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: his whole life, and my wife and I were thinking,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: is this payback? You know, because when she got pregnant.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: We literally made the joke, and people made the joke
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: to us because with super calm people we really are,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: you know, we're super simple. We had we have crazy past,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: We've done crazy stuff, but we're pretty laid back and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: we're known as that kind of being a laid back couple.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: So the joke was that our child was going to
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: be a laid back kid, and it was the opposite.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: He's actually a pretty wild child. So I think about that,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: is this payback for the you know, trauma I put
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: my parents through, and it really was trauma. You know.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I spent the better half of the last twenty years
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: making amends to my parents and rebuilding the relationship with
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: my parents. I've talked on this podcast about my father
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: and how you know, he just told me he was
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: proud of me. That was like less than a year ago.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: I've been cleaned for eighteen years, but he's been there
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: every step of the way. We have a good relationship.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: It's just it's more of a generational thing. You know,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: he doesn't he has a hard time. I'm kind of
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: saying it, and it bothered me for a while, especially
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: as I started to accomplish these things in life, and
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: I started to do everything that he used to lecture
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: me about. You know, when I was a kid, that's
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: all he did was lecture me. You know, not a
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: bad way, but he would tell me over and over again,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: like justin, stop sucking up your life, justin, you need
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: to go back to school, you need to get an education,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: get a degree, you gotta get a job, you gotta
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: do this, you gotta do that. And I did all
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: of it plus so much more. You know, I made
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: it to I made the dream happen, right, I made
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: it to the top essentially on kiss one to wait,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: and you know, he was there but never really verbalized it.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: And so he did like less than a year ago,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: and it was a very very special moment. It was
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: actually it was actually last Father's Day, so it was
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: over a year ago that that happened. I told the
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: story on the year. So yeah, the last twenty years
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: has been kind of saying showing that I'm sorry, because
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: that's the thing with apologizing. That's the thing about saying sorry.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: You know, it's an action word. It's not just a
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: word that you say. You know, you show you're sorry
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: basically by saying you're never going to do it again,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: and then showing that you're never going to do it again.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: So it's saying then showing, you know not it's an
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: empty word. If you just say sorry but there's no
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: action behind it, then it's just an empty word, you know.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: And I was a sorry king, right, Sorry, Sorry, I
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: stole your money. Sorry I stole your check book, you know,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: sorry I did this. It's crazy. So yeah, I really
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: identify with that song. You know, it's you get older
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: and you realize you know what you were like and
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: what they had to go through. You know, I've talked
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: about my mom, you know, getting clean and her talking
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: about you know, every time the phone would ring, she
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: was convinced it was the call that they found me dead.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: You know, every time the phone rang, her heart would
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: sink and she'd be full of anxiety, scared to pick
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: up the phone. She told me this. You know, you
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: find these things out later, like my brother finding my
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: syringes as a kid. But the good news is I'm
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: on the better path. I got to keep going, keep going.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: And by the way, saw that video and kiss of
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: me talking about my friend zeb blowing on my neck.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: I found the video one video of me squatting with
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: zeb He wasn't blowing on me on that video, but
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: it was just funny that I found that, Like, that's
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: exactly what it was like. I was squatting a heavyweight
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: and he was spotting me and eventually he would like
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: blow on my neck just to try to get me up.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: It's super weird, I know, I know. Anyway, Tomorrow I
