Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Let's do this fast and you shapeum. I wake up every morning Boston's
only classic rock morning show. Ilook at myself at the mirror and I
go me, I'm dreaming, aybI'm awake dreaming. I'm as sneak with
Pete McKenzie. I still vomit beforeevery show at Ford until dirty and unsatisfied.
And Kenny Young, Yeah, getcrazy. In other words, I'm

(00:25):
crazy on seven. I want youto go hard fast, Kebby, get
to it. Here's to the future. Will you see lex Ah the future?
My crystal ball tells me it's Tuesday, April sixteenth, five point thirty
one. My name is Kenny Young. He's handsome and cute when he's young,
and he's still handsome and kut now. But you're more handsome than I

(00:45):
am. Well a young guy,thank you. That's very nice. It's
very nice. Well, I amyounger, but in that guy that runs
the bagels shop. Good morning,Heather Ford, good morning. Putting a
murder podcast on is when I reorganize, Like if I have like a bunch
of podcasts, I can bin.I will repaint the house like several.
It just kicks everybody steady. Iwould love for Dateline to hire me after

(01:07):
this to be their podcast, likeinvesting an agent, Yeah, investigative reports.
Time I talk to someone about that, someone who has one or talks
about it or knows people, andthen I follow up, they ghost me.
And it's happened to me more thanfive times, no reply. And
these are people you and I,all three of us know and love,

(01:29):
and I've asked them and then theytalk about theirs, and then when it
comes time for giving me information,they ghost me. Want to share their
agent? Yes, so, andI don't know how to find one.
Kevin always used to say when heretires, he would be mine. He
goes, I'll be your agent,and then we'd sit here and we'd like

(01:51):
haggle and negotiate how what his percentagewould be. And he'd be like,
all right, I'll take fifty,and I'll be like, no, you
won't. And we worked our waydown. I was like ten and no
more, he goes, he goestwenty. Or I don't do it right.
I don't. Hey, I don'thave an agent, none of us
do. And I don't know.It's something we never wanted because you're giving

(02:14):
them a percentage. Yeah, butI also want people like a headhunter,
I also want people to find mework. We were our own headhunters,
yeah, you know, that's howwe operated. And then when we went
into interviews, it was together.So you know, if somebody didn't have
something to say, one of uswould Yep, it was. It was
unbeatable. I know, it wasunbeatable. And like, increases are so

(02:34):
few and far between over the lasttwenty years that when people would ask,
oh, do you have like anagent that represents you? And I go,
yeah, me right, because yeah, yet some of the people around
here that have agents get paid waymore than we do. Yeah. Yeah,
So that's the other question is inthe fire besides this all of them,
Like right down the hall here,this guy behind me, does he

(02:57):
get paid way more than I don'tknow what he gets paid. I don't
know how he works. Yeah,I just wonder where that money is.
Yeah, I don't know. Ijust know. I mean in this building.
I mean I know where the moneyis in this building, I mean
clearly, But I like in ourother building though, there were people getting
paid way more than us. Doyou know how much money Pete McKenzie's making
these days? Do what you gottado, man, nobody gonna be your

(03:20):
bills. I'm happy I'm making milliondollar a day. Wow, I would
just work for one day. Ifwe could do that, I would just
work for one day and a milliondollars a day. I would have zero
lottery dreams, right right. Iwouldn't need a lot never need to hit
the lottery. You hit the lotteryand your salary is yeah, I mean
literally, I'd probably work a week. If I got a million dollars a

(03:45):
day, I'd work for a week, and then I would just go live
a very normal life right where everything'sjust kind of Oh, I see.
So you think somebody's going to giveyou a million dollars a day for just
a week, Well, your service. David Lee Roth got paid four million
dollars for four months worth of work, right for from CBS, for working
on that radio station. I'll tellyou them right now. You give me
a million dollars, free and clear, right now, walk out the door.

(04:09):
I would make that last the restof my life to work. Yeah,
fortite talk about that all the timebetween his retirement and just give me
a million dollars. Well, maybeyou will both be presented that challenge one
day. No, but we willtoday is that today's challenges to make sad
news and a happy news and notfor a million dollars. For sure,

(04:33):
six one one, double o sevenare number. You'll need that number throughout
the day. And of course thetalk back feature you need that. You
need that app. It's free downloadedfrom the app store of the iHeartRadio app.
Click on the red microphone, leaveus a voice mess. You have
painfully quiet yesterday on the talkbacks,and I just have and I'm just not
even this, not just this show, but throughout the day, because you

(04:54):
know, we look at the logthrough Carter Show, Chuck Show, the
Night Show, and I just haveto attributed to the fact that you know,
it was marathon Monday, it wasPatriots Day, people had the day
off. People probably do a littleday drink and maybe something like that.
And I know I was, andit's a vacation week. So yeah,
I will tell you. There aretwo things that struck me yesterday. One,
we definitely do marathon different than otherplaces. It seems though a person

(05:17):
fell from a second floor apartment buildingwindow in Allstin at a marathon party.
It's always I don't know, butI just I do know that in other
places they don't have marathon parties.Boston is where you go where everybody gathers
to. I mean I was atthe eye doctor yesterday with the kids and
the marathon was on and everyone inthe waiting room was watching. We were

(05:39):
all watching. It was like theend of the race for the men and
the women. It was a goodtime. The other thing is that WBZ.
You know, I know the radiostations right around the corner, but
the TV station, their website apparentlyhas caught the fever. Do you know
what fever I'm talking about? They'vegone full car and read just like everyone
else at this point. No,they don't have a because that would be

(06:00):
a little bit too much for wb Z. Like who had the link
Boston twenty five? Yes, no, no, But there were like three
three stories and it's in the likethe top story, and like who's Turtle
Boy? And what's this jury?And there's going to be a cordoned off
area people have to stay on.There's a buffer zone. So bz's gone
full in on Karen. What weknow now as the trial start this week,

(06:24):
so they're going to quick jurors todayor something. Hey again, I've
saw that on a website. Doyou think I clicked on any of it?
No? What's wrong with me?Why am I not getting into this?
I don't know. I don't knoweither. I feel like I great
investigative reporter. Some about it it'sturning you off? Something about it is,

(06:45):
and I have no idea. Ihave no idea, Zelex Weather.
Maybe it's because I want simplicity inmy life right now, and there doesn't
seem to be anything simple about theKaren case. Mostly sunny in sixties today,
something clouds tomorrow, highs in thefifties, fifty degree in Boston.
I'm Heather Ford on one hundred pointseven w z LEX, Boston's only classic
rock borning show. It's five fortytwo fifty degrees. That song made its

(07:09):
first appearance as part of the soundtrackto the Coneheads movie in the year nineteen
hundred and ninety three, and ironicallyhad nothing to do with the movie at
all. Anthony Keatis wrote it abouthis personal struggles with addiction from a very
early age. But hey, itwas a big blast when that song came
out on the soundtrack to Coneheads,a movie I still have not seen to

(07:30):
this date. Another example of saturaNight Live where it was like a great
sketch, but it just didn't translatemovie wise. I felt that way about
Night at the Roxbury, remember withWill Ferrell and christan funny sketch, you
know, the guys in the nightclubwith the blazers on, just just didn't
made it. About fifteen yeah,two hours, fifteen minutes into the movie,

(07:50):
I said, I'm out, MaryCatherine Gallagher, same thing, awesome
sketch, Molly Shannon, but justdidn't translate. Here's what's translating for you
here this week we got a lotpopping. All right. Uh, first
and foremost thousand dollars bribe resumes atnine ten here this morning, we were
just talking about cash, earning alittle extra cheddar. Well, you can
do that thirteen times every weekday thanksto WZLX. Al Right, every hour

(08:13):
in the tents, we give youthese keywords, and you just go over
to WZLX dot com, do itright there on your mobile device and enter
those keywords every hour in the tentsright through nine ten pm a grand every
hour. You can be earning onethousand dollars an hour. Right, Just
think what you could do with thatkind of cash. Maybe you could set
yourself up with all the you know, summer concert tickets that you want to
purchase from a Planet Fitness, WCLXStudios, Horizon Smile Now now, thanks

(08:37):
for making us part of your morningGood Lines with Heather. Great story.
Thank you Fine on one hundred pointseven WCLX bosson Yep, No one marathons
like us because you know, firstof all, every website you go to
and everything you look at is aboutthe marathon. Because it was a s
specacular day. We rule it wasbeautiful. Although when I was watching the

(08:58):
end of it, at least themen's part at the Eye Doctor yesterday,
I was like, how is thatelderly man winning the race? I'm just
looking at him going he has likehe was gray haired right? Or was
that just the angle I was lookingat? He had gray temples? Right?
Hair color? Was it hair color? Yeah? I know in his
thirties. I know he's in histhirties, but he looked gray. I

(09:20):
was like, what did you Itcould be any age you can win a
marathon, did you guys? NoticeI didn't see him. I saw the
women finish and yeah, Helen wasa machine. Yes, Ellen ol Berry
the first back to back winter intwenty years. It's pretty cool. Yeah,
she was a machine. But watchinghim because he had like at one
point he had a two minute lead. I don't know what he finished,

(09:41):
how big of elite because right afterhe crossed I went into my appointment.
But well, one point I heardhe was on track for two hour and
thirty two second marathon. Wow.Yeah, finished with two six which would
have been tired. That would havebeen a fifty thousand dollars bonus for oh
right, no, he and hesaid at the end, he goes,
I wanted to break that record,but there's so many hills. It is

(10:01):
one of those. And also wedon't marathon like other people. Because one
of the headlines that I read thismorning was person falls from second floor window
at Alston apartment building. At theywere at a marathon party, you know,
and that's how we roll. Okay, large party in the building,
dozens of police officers. It doesn'tsay that they were that they're deceased,

(10:24):
like in any part of it,Like you know what I mean. I
think there was a byline of likethe persons expected to survive their injuries.
Yeah, what I thought is interesting. It wasn't a major part of the
story the person. It was likethe party and the falling was the story,
right. Yeah. The police pointedout the dozens of half empty gallon
jugs on the ground outside, becausewhat they do is they make these concoctions

(10:48):
like vodka and whatever kind of fruitjuice or mixers or whatever, and they
they all walk around with these gallonjugs of empty milk, grain alcohol,
whatever it is. Yeah, whateverthey're mixing up. Police report. A
person walking past the bathroom, waswalking to the bathroom of this apartment when
the you know, the party wasgoing on. Notice the victim sitting on
a dresser with his feet outside thewindow in the bedroom. The winness also

(11:13):
said that when he walked by thebedroom after using the bathroom, the victim
was not there. Okay, notin the window. No, we have
some people talking about the marathon.We have some people. Are these runners
or these like watch it. Theseare partiers, These are your grain alcohols,
is what you're saying. No,I'm not saying that. I know

(11:35):
that that was making a joke.There's this sense of pride from the city.
It's just a great day for thecity to come together as one.

(14:03):
and Company six twenty seven to fiftyone degrees. Here, let's gett a
young Pete McKenzie heather Ford. Andyou know, the marathon wasn't the only
sporting event going on yesterday since nineteenfifty nine. Our Boston Red Sox playing
their annual Patriots Day game eleven ten. Start. Gotta be early for the
boys. Yeah, roll out ofbed, go play baseball. Yeah.

(14:26):
I think it's gotta be toughest onthe starting pitchers as the Socks welcome the
Guardians, the Cleveland Guardians into town. Yeah. Both starting pitchers were brilliant.
Yeah, which is amazing cutter.Crawford went, was it five and
a third or six? Didn't giveup a run? I mean it was
deadlocked at zero through seven innings.I think right. Yeah, you had
a perfect day, you know,a beautiful day. Marathon Monday eleven ten

(14:48):
start, a full stadium. Yeah, Fenway was packed. You had Gronk
out there throwing out the first pitchsort of. I guess he' through It
sounded like the crack of the band, didn't it. It wasn't. He
just spiked it into the mound.Yeah, that's what he does. Gronk

(15:11):
spiked. They have to let theguys that work on the field. That
must have really annoyed them. Didthey have to go there and fix it
because there was a divot? Wellimout the starting pictures, that's what I
mean. Yeah, he put itright where they land their foot, That's
what I mean. Like create it. I'm sure make sure the grounds crewdit
they did. I thought it wasimpressive. So Gronk was the Grand Marshal
for the marathon. He was atthe starting line. Before the start of

(15:33):
the race. They post for picturesand do the inaugural whatever marshals do,
And then somehow got whisked to intime to throw out the first pitch at
eleven ten. Oh, that's true, it's not that far in. The
start of the race is nine.Yeah, I mean I had to go
back roads to the highway two hoursright. Oh he was at the starting
line. Yeah, I mean it'stwo hours right, yeah, ten o'clock.

(15:56):
It was like a lot of time. But oh he did He was
it for the elite runners. Hedid it for after Maybe I didn't.
I didn't see it, but I'mjust saying it's a tight window to get
him from Hopkinson, So he musthave obviously had the police escort or something
to get him. On the subjectof the game, so you know,
the Indians or the Guardians end upwinning six nothing. But in the seventh
inning, have you ever been ina collision on an athletic field that took

(16:21):
you out of the game. TylerO'Neal and Raphael Devil's battling for a fly
ball. They apparently called it atthe exact same time. That's what Coora
is saying. Yeah, in theback of Dever's head just went right into
Tyler O'Neill's forehead was ugly well,and O'Neill who's you know, pretty much
the offensive weapon the Red Sox haveright now is in concussion protocol, leading
the American League in home runs.Does that happen in baseball? I know

(16:45):
in football happens all the time.There was a We took a lot of
pride when I played softball. Weplayed in the city league in Cleveland,
So we were playing, you know, we were suburban kids playing against these
you know, city guys that werejust they were tough. They were blue
collar tough. We were suburbian,white collars, you know. But we

(17:06):
took a lot of pride and goingup against them, and we we held
our own. But I'll never forget. I'm playing right center field. My
buddy Paul's playing left center field.We don't call for the ball. We
both dive. We both leave ourfeet diving for this ball. Oh and
smash heads. Oh my god?Oh yeah, who had I guess I

(17:26):
was bleeding but he got knocked out. Wow. Now, Tyler O'Neil's in
concussion protocol with eight stitches. Yeah, that's the only time I went to
the hospital in full uniform. Yeah, because I had I mean, I
was gushing. You know. Theumpire tried to put one of those butterfly
patches on my forehead. It wasthere, just some guy who was there.
Yes, Fortunately he had a bandagein his pocket, you know,

(17:48):
put a piece of gum on it. We didn't bring any All we brought
was a cooler of beer. Yeah, back of the socks real quick.
There was really only one standout highlight from that six to nothing shut out
that they fell to the Guardians wasright fielder Abrai Wilier Willier A bray You

(18:10):
just made this, Kenny. We'restill don't feel bad. We're all still
learning the Red Sox name. OhI'm stumbling on his first name for six
months now here. What a catchdid he make? Though out by the
bullpen right field? Oh my god, to slinging it dry? He sucked
that to right. I bray youback back back to the track. Hell,
I'm slipping into the fence. Howstanding catch? Highway robbery. This

(18:37):
is absolutely incredible. Go get ita bray you. Yeah. Nobody was
more happy about that than Cutter Crawfordon the mound, who just had this
look of astonishment like I can't believeyou just got that ball, and I
can't believe that I'm not going toget a win after pitching my ass up.
That's what I'm saying this last weekhere, the sock starters have been
doing their job. Bullpen out somuch. Try to get Tonight, seven

(19:00):
to ten, let's go, socks. Come on Boston's only classic rug morning
show, one under point seven wz l X six forty three, now
fifty one, on its way tothe low sixties again. We'll take it.
It's Kinny Young, Pete McKenzie,head a fod Hey. Tonight's mega
millions one hundred and forty eight million. Man, these go up so quick,

(19:22):
now tell them on, I'll tellyou. Yeah. Then they just
added a jackpot, right, Iknow, Vegas, I know a nice
nine figure payday wouldn't be bad ona Tuesday. You know something, though,
with much better odds is our thousanddollars bribes. Speaking of money talking,
we put our money where your mouth. There's thirteen times every week they
grab a grand every hour on thetens, thousand dollars bribe back at nine

(19:44):
to ten, and it's easy.Yeah, there's no heavy lifting, there's
no forms to fill out. Justwhen you hear the keywords every hour in
the tens right through nine ten pm. I have to do is head over
to WZLX dot com or just openit up on your mobile device there and
enter that keyword in for a chance. It's at a grand thirteen thousand dollars
a day every day. There's alot of money just have laying around,
Yeah, throw around. So weonly get to do it a few times

(20:07):
a year because you've got to restockthe coffers. You know, that's a
lot of bottles and cans we haveto return. It's all the great investments
we've made. That's hard. Yeah, that's right. Wife and I were
talking about spring cleaning just yesterday.We're sitting out in our patio and she
says, you know, I thinkit's time we you know, pull everything
out of the shed and the garageand do like a good thorough spring clean.
I said, the stuff that getspulled out of there, the majority

(20:30):
of it is not going back in, you know what I mean. We
either got to like get rid ofthe stuff that's you know, laying around
it we're not using, or it'syou know, just it's been hovering over
us, you know, to dothis spring cleaning. But it just hasn't
been nice enough to pull everything outof the here it comes, I hope,
so it comes. Hopefully this weathersticks around for us here six forty
four. Now, and keep inmind, like I said nine to ten,

(20:52):
get your first crack at a grandhere with the bribe from a Planet
Fitness you see Alex Studios. Now, now you're making that part of your
morning brief story. WX bosses oneof those mornings where so many things caught
my eye, like the fact thatyesterday we talked about Boston twenty five has

(21:14):
a whole link on their website forKaren Reid. Like it's like Weather,
Sports News, blah blah blah,National Karen Reid. And then there's like
investigative and pictures just pictures of Karenwhen you click on it, and it's
just a bunch of stories and it'sher face in the courtroom. And I
only fell a bait only from talkingto YouTube, right, do I know

(21:37):
that there's love for her face?So you guys like looking at her and
m Kenny wants a movie with LakeLively playing, right exactly. I noticed
that yesterday after you said that,I looked and they have they have very
similar hair. Whatody Harrelson will playturtle Boy? Oh, Wow, turtle
Boy. I mean, like oldschool you do stuff with makeup. They

(22:03):
have Robert de Niro playing like atwenty year old version of himself in The
Irishman. So yeah, I meanwe all find it uncomfortable, but movies
still do it anyway. So anyway, I saw that and I thought to
myself, and I say this everyday, and you two hear me say
it. I really need to figureout this Karen Reid case, and yet
every day I'm still uninterested. NowBZ you know, like Besy news,

(22:25):
not our radio friends over here,but neighbor's death. Yes, they had
like so many sections on Karen Reidtoday, like they were playing ketchup.
They were had like the trial starts, jury selection was another story. Who
Is turtle Boy? Was an entirestory they have listed And did you read
that? No, none of them. I didn't click on any o.

(22:45):
Nobody can force you. I can'ttake your hand and make you learn about
this case. Have you learned aboutit? No? I have no desiree
Why do we have no desire?Though? Kenny, do you care?
I'm interested to find out what reallyhappened, as is probably most of it.
Yeah, I get half paid attention. I mean, you guys just
because it's local and involves one ofBoston's own and that's what I mean.

(23:06):
Well, you guys love your crimedocumentaries all the time. This is a
perfect deep dive, I know,And yet I just so not a bez's
on it, like you know news. I feel like maybe I should click
on some stories, and yet Ihave not. The marathon was yesterday and
my favorite story was notable people thatare in the marathon and and you know

(23:26):
they had Zadano Chara who Kenny saidjust the other like a couple hours ago
or last hour, He's going tobe running the London Marathon in a couple
of days, like he ran Bostonin three hours and thirty minutes. Did
you see his legs, either ofyou? Do you see his arms?
Yeah, he's cut, but thoseare his Like I'm only used to seeing

(23:47):
him in chatting legs. He hasrunner's legs, hockey legs. Those are
hockey legs. Those are hockey littleskinny sticks. Did you hear him after
day though? Did you hear himafter the race? I couldn't decide if
he sounded like Schwartzenegger or if hesounded like what did you say bored at
he was very cheeky, very smiley, very happy. He's a Dane O'Hara.
After the marathon, it was lotsof fun. Always the different conditions

(24:08):
from last year, but it wasamazing. The fans were just sol out
and trust on. It was amazingday. You know. I enjoyed it
very much. Lots of fun anduh yeah, it was just a great
day to you, like, isnice, lots of exercising, yeah,
I mean it doesn't want to otherpeople. They mentioned Henry Richard, Martin

(24:30):
Richard's brother, one of oh yeah, he's done it three times, Troy
Hoyt, the grandson of Dick hoyand the nephew of Rick, and you
had. But at the very end, Shane Sager, Shane, I saw
him on the news the other day. Otherwise I wouldn't have recognized him.
I'm gonna pulled up this right now, Shane Shane, the harmonica player,

(24:56):
Like they've got I'm like, wow, we're really like, did we have
anybody besides Charker for that run?Like, I'm this guy's great and he
raised over twenty four thousand dollars formash Gen and that's awesome. That's awesome.
Then I'm really I'm really proud ofhim. But I'm just thinking to
myself, of all the people you'reputting on this list, I'm sure he

(25:18):
had to be pointed out. Well. They spent a whole segment on him
on w on CVB last week,but I he's running the marathon. I
don't know. And then the thirdthing that caught my eye and I thought
this was fascinating and also it's silly, was that a message in a bottle
was found on the cape and itwas found on Mashpee on a shore and
mash p Okay. So the personwho found it was like, wow,
you know, we need to figureout who it is. This bottle is

(25:41):
like old as hell coke bottle,sixty year old that's what I was gonna
say, six year old coke bottlecovered in barnacles. And they found the
person who had sent it. Andyou're thinking, ooh, is it French?
Is it from England? Right Africa? Where's it from? Did it
travel all around the world. It'sfrom Worcester. And the woman he sent

(26:02):
it when she was like a fourteenyear old, like her parents and family,
they had a house there, soshe put the bottle out and it
just kind of stayed and so butit's still a really cool story. And
everybody talks about her being just afantastic person. And her daughter was like,
it was like the fourteen year oldversion of my mother was saying hi,
because the handwriting was still the same. That was adorable. But can
you imagine you've got these big dreams. You're like sich some exotic location.

(26:26):

(26:48):
So no, but it's still agood story. Xeelex weather mostly sunny
in sixties today, something clouds tomorrowhas in the fifties, fifty degrees in
Boston had their ford on a onehundred point seven Boston's only classic rock morning
show seven twenty two, fifty onedegrees, glorious springtime conditions out there.
It's Kenny Young, Pete Mackenzie,heather Ford and listen, I'm very distracted

(27:11):
this morning. I'm'na be very honestwith you. You've made us very distracted
this morning. I'll tell you what. I'm distracted because there's been a theft.
That's right. I think we needto We need to get the Scooby
Doo gang. I own too,so we need to get the lay Jerry
or back on the scene. Wantme the text Turtle Boy, see if
you can get to the bottom ofthis. I got a law and order

(27:32):
situation that's going on right here,right now. We don't even know who
Turtle Boy is yet. None ofus have read the article. My thirty
ounce yetti filled with my home brewediced coffee that I bring my own coffee
every day, you know that,but usually it's been drink by now,
and I'm onto water, which Igot going on here. But I left
this room a little while ago tofilm an Instagram video at w Zelix,

(27:56):
and I have since not seen myyetti that was half of ice coffee.
Did you take it with you tofilm it? I did, and so
I went into the up. Iknow where it is. Just where is
it? You know that like musiclistening room with the guitars hanging on the
wall. No, none of themhave the lex Yeah, so in that
room, I bet I put itdown on the counter. Oh, because

(28:17):
you told us this morning off theair about the guitar that can never be
tuned. Yeah, so that's whereit is. So today's clash at eight
forty, I'm doing another round ofguitar riffs. Name that tune? Right?
So did you just solve this onthe air? I may have because
it was really hurting my head.It was hurting my head. I was
very distracted. Plus there's another excuseto use this. So yeah, I

(28:42):
was in the promotions office noodling aroundwith the guitar that can't be tuned,
and that's when it occurred to me, maybe I should go into that listening
room that has multiple guitars hanging onthe wall. So I did a little
bit about it at wzox and toyour benefit in a big cyclical fans here,
the reason I'm telling you all thislistener is that because at eight forty,

(29:03):
you can name that tune for achance to win your way to cheap
trick. They're gonna be speaking ofguitar collections. I think he has over
six hundred Rick Nielsen. They're gonnabe hitting the MGM Music Call Fenway this
summer, and we have your ticketto rock at eight forty, but you'll
have to successfully navigate through my classicrock Audio daily double clues. All right,
Kenny's riffs can't be missed. Well, they're awesome. There's a couple

(29:26):
of curve balls today. They're gonnahave to think about it at eight forty,
so just over an hour away fromthose cheap Hey Kenny, go Getty
here Yetty, I'm gonna go GettyMayedi. Meanwhile, I want you all
to say this three times fast cheapTrick tickets now seven forty on the nose,
fifty one on its way up tothe low sixties. It's the glorious
weather we've been pining for, right, I guess before more rain returns on

(29:49):
Thursday. But hey, yeah,middle of April will take it. Right.
It's Kenny Young, Pete McKenzie,heather Ford and as I said,
look at the time, what's goingon? Austin's only a classic rock morning
show one seven w z X woah. Well, My wife had the luxury
of having yesterday off, which wasnice as well. Weekend. Yeah,

(30:11):
so, uh, and I knewit was coming, but the delay factor
was, you know, to metoo long. So what I knew was
coming was lunch. Oh yeah withthe wife. You know, she's got
the day off. That's great,let's go to lunch. I knew that,
and you know, I even textedmy daughter at ten am. We're

(30:33):
going on a lunch date today.Isn't that, you know? But my
wife she's such she's such a doer, you know, like a doer.
Yeah. She Oh, she starteda project. We were at work.
Yes, she can't sit you know, like she's not a she doesn't sit
around. You're off. It's Monday, it's marathon Monday. You know,
enjoy the beauty of the day.You don't have to work. Sleep for

(30:56):
a walk, go for a walk, do something that doesn't mean go get
a bunch of perennials and bags ofmulch for me to plant plants on your
day off. Oh wait, shedidn't plant them. They were for you.
She planted them. But I hadto, you know, stop and
get mulch and break the bag.This is all before lunch. Oh,
I got a tea time at fiveo'clock. Oh, so you know the

(31:19):
small violin playing right here, guywith this and me, the guy with
the small brain. All I canthink of was, I got a five
o'clock tea time. How am Igonna get my nap it? How can
get my nap it? No,that's not a guy that lapps. That's
all any of us think about.You can get twenty minutes in. Yeah,
you can just lay down in themulch bed. Yeah, pretty quick.
Now, by the way, wehad a fabulous lunch. We went

(31:41):
to Kennedy's and Marlboro. I don'tknow if you know where that is Kenny
Yeah, twenty I think I mentionedthat one. Pretty much everything is.
I think it might be on eightyfive. I don't know. It's one
of those roads. I get eightyfive. Yeah, And so we go
on the patio. First of thestat the chairs are all stacked up on
the patio, so we're thinking,oh, we can't sit on the patio.
And then we go in and theysay, oh, yeah, the
patio's open. So we go outon the patio and there's already a couple

(32:02):
out there with a carriage, ababy carriage and the baby carrying not to
disturb people on the inside. Andthey're so friendly. They're really nice,
and I immediately thought, well,their grandparents and they have because I couldn't
see in the carriage. It wasyou know, in the back of it
was faced. Oh no, there'sa dog in there. So you were

(32:22):
relieved in many ways, Yeah,because it was a really quiet dog.
Who knows what a baby's gonna break. You never understand these people to say,
let's take the dog for a walk, honey, get the stroller.
Well they made a point to saythat, not not the restaurant, but
this couple said that they allow petsout on the patio here. Isn't that
great? And I'm like, that'sawesome. Cool. Yeah, and they're
also sheltering the pet from you guyshaving to look at the dog while you're

(32:45):
eating. Yeah, they're a carriage. I would never have agreet you know,
their giant. But it also peopledon't like to look at animals while
they're eating if they don't have dogs, so that kind of helps. Yeah.
I don't mind people who do knowif they can, if they can
control the animal and it's it's carquiet, Yeah, it's fine. It's
fine. Yeah, So that wasthat, and I did make my tea

(33:05):
time and what a beautiful evening.It was great, Yes, just gorgeous,
gorgeous. Well, Pete, likeyou, we had the same modus
operandi. We said, the wife'sgot the day off and I was stabbing
by the time I left here,so I celebrated the marathon. The only
way is to fit. Let's gohave a huge lunch and a couple of
drinks, which is what we did. And because we're south of the race
course, our options were limited toheading south. And my sister's off this

(33:30):
week. She works in the RenthamSchool arena, so she's got this week
off. So we met up withmy sister down in Midfield at Noon Hill
right there on one O nine,great spot right on the old railroad tracks
there Noonhill Grill, and it wasa nice catch up see sista, and
uh yeah, we had an awesomelunch there. And then you know,
sometimes the wife will rope a dopeme and then she'll trick me with lunch

(33:52):
and then there's always like a sideproject. But this wasn't plantings or perennials
or mulch. It was well,since we're down there, we might as
well go to the grocery store andget what we need. I'm just like,
you know, after this lunch,I'm ready for my now right right.
But as it always likes to say, let's go walk off lunch,
let's go walk it off at thegrocery store. So as we sat there

(34:13):
getting ready to pull out of theparking lot, we said, we need
to find a grocery store that's nearbythis because we can't get to the ones
we usually go to due to therace right when we go back up north
to where we live. So wefound down on one O nine there's the
Shaws. Just completely by chance,randomly found this place and got what we
needed. So I go over tothe Delhi and there's two guys conspiring back

(34:36):
at the back wall of the deliand they're pointing at me and they're whispering,
and I'm thinking, did I ordersomething that's like rotten or spoiled?
Like? And the jokes on me? And so there's a lot of hush
hushing going on, and I'm justkind of standing there, and you know,
I'm already a little you know,easy, Yeah, I'm like,
what's going on? And now I'mordering food from them? What's going to
happen? So then one of them, a mustachioed fella, younger fella,

(34:58):
comes over and he goes, you'reKenny young right WZLX. I thought I
recognized that voice, and I waslike, what all I did was order
a half upound a turkey breast.And it turns out that he is a
friend of my friend's son. Theygrew up together going to high school.
So when I would hang out overat Smithy's, this kid would come over
to see his son, right,And I probably haven't seen this kid in

(35:20):
ten years. He's thirty now worksat this Shaws. And he says,
he told so he tells he wastelling the other deli guy this story about
how we were watching a Pats gameten years ago or whatever when this kid
was still in high school. Andhe says, yeah, he goes,
you thought they were going to loseto the Arizona Cardinals, and then I
said that they were going to missthe kick, and then you said you

(35:40):
were going to give me a shoutout on the radio, and you gave
me a shout out in the radio, and I never forgot that, And
I'm like, how do you rememberthat like, I don't even remember the
conversation of the games, but thiswas like log lodged into his memory.
So he says, that's what Iwas telling this guy. I was telling
him about the time that you gaveme a shout out on the ls.
You know, this has been sleepingon that for like I get, I

(36:01):
guess thirty five hundred days, suchan early saw, such a random running.
I was just like, is thisgoing to be a stalker kind of
situation? Right? But it wasall good. It was all good,
recognized in the wild for my pipes, I guess. Now the big question
is, Kenny, when you gotyour stuff from the deli, did they
put the receipt that they stick tothe package over the ziplock? They did

(36:22):
not, They put it on thesidelongs. You know, that's one of
my pet peete right to make sureyou gotta ask good on your deli crew
at the Shaws Right. Seven fortyseven now from the Planet Fitness w CLX
Studios. Now, thanks for makingus part of your morning Sad Lines with
Heather Great Store on ONEX Boston.Having a day like today, especially for

(36:49):
the runners and all the families cominginto the city and really getting able to
enjoy everything that the city has tooffer is just great. It's great to
see this many people out. It'sgreat to see the pride in the city
show up for the game, showup at the marathon. So yeah,
it's fantastic. Let's be honest,though, we marathon differently here than other
places, Like we go hard.Yeah, well we party like in London
with the marathon's happening, like they'llthey'll celebrate it. It's a big marathon.

(37:12):
Growing up in New York, Iused to watch the marathon because I
was a runner, but no oneelse I knew got like psyched for the
like Gretavites running the marathon, likepeople were you know, Oh the marathon
happened and it was like a blipon the news that night and you watched
all the people run across the bridgeand you're like, wow, it's great.
But here it's you marathon. It'slike a thing. It's like a

(37:36):
you are going to party, youare going to celebrate, You're going to
appreciate the day. Everybody's got theday off for the BA holiday. Yeah,
yep, it's a it's a moment, which is why headlines like this
from CVB happen because we marathon hard. Person falls from second floor window at
Alston apartment building during marathon party.Yeah, at ten fifty am. One

(37:58):
person at the party reports seeing thisperson sitting on a dresser with their feet
hanging out the window, and theperson who saw that then went to the
bathroom. By the time they gotout of the bathroom, the person wasn't
there anymore because they were hanging bytheir fingers falling boom, yeah, fall
down, boom. Another witness sawthem hanging by their fingers off the ledge
of the second story of that apartment. Need to do more fifty in the

(38:20):
morning and need to do more pullups? You do, but also it's
hard to do pull ups when you'redrinking gallons of booze. What were those
things called? Yeah, So whenthe police got there, we're like checking
out the scene. In front ofthat apartment complex, there was like the
yard there was littered with half toquarter empty gallon jugs of borgs. Do
you know what borgs are? BecauseI knew there was a name for it.

(38:44):
They empty water gallon jugs or milkjugs and they fill and every single
one of them on the ground.And I'm count and this is just one
picture, one, two, twelveof them. They're all different colors.
There's pink ones, yellow ones.Borg is an acronym for blackout rage.
Gallons all the rage. So theyfill them up with vodka and electrolytes to
try to offset the booze. Sothey're trying to rehydrate as they dehydrate.

(39:07):
But then they put in like fruitjuices, so it's like masking the taste.
And everybody has their own gallon andeveryone walks around. Now the college
students say that this is safer forthem because they know what they're drinking because
they made their own drink. Butit's also a gallon jug. Did I
mention that, yes, I'd ratheryou walk around with a YETI a tiny
yetti filled with your own liquor.You don't drink too much or you don't

(39:29):
have the black out. But Ido understand the fear of getting a drink
handed to you from someone else.So it just you as a woman,
you just never know. But thisapartment, there was a lot of borgs,
oh so many again, and thefencing was the fencing on both sides
of it looked like drunk people hadjust fallen all over it. So this
is how we marathon, is whatI'm saying. Well, we have the

(39:50):
advantage we do ours on a Monday. Most of these other major marathons do
it on a Sunday. Ours isa holiday. You know, people have
the day off, socks game ontop of it. Spectators have as much
recognition as the runners. Here isthe dumbest question I'm going to ask today,
Well, probably not all the collegeshave off too, right, or
do the kids just not go toclass that day? I think they just
blow off classes. I don't.I mean, you're wondering. I'm wondering

(40:14):
if like BC and BU, they'relike, listen, no one's going to
be doing any work. So we'rejust is it they take that hot ill
butt. There's a handful of professorsthat say, yeah, you don't even
bother coming in money. Yeah,well that's that's when borgs happen, is
all I'm going to say. Oneof the things that's happening today besides you
know, us talking about the marathon, is that the Karen Reid trial,

(40:36):
which for the life of me Ijust can't get into, is somehow starting.
And I'm asking theseus questions like arethey picking the jury today. I've
seen all these pictures of her sittingat a table in a courtroom. I
had assumed last month or the monthbefore that this trial had been going on
for two years. I did aswell, Yeah, it has been Boston
twenty five. They have an entirelink you can go to on their website

(40:59):
just for Karen Read and when youclick on it, it's just stories and
the and the picture with each storyis just her at the table in the
courtroom. And and now Bz's like, you know what, We're a real
news station, but we need toget in on this too. So all
of a sudden I look on theirwebsite and there's like, what is the
Karen Reid trial? Who is TurtleBoy? What is happening? I mean,

(41:20):
they had stories and I hadn't seenone Karen Reid story on there yet
until yesterday. But that's a biglocal unsolved mystery. People have interest in
it. There's all kinds of allkinds of subplots with tampering and evidence and
friends of the family, this andthat and the other thing. Oh my
god, all words that would intrigueme in any other situation in scenario except

(41:44):
this one. What is wrong withme. I don't know. I don't
know either. You could always justwait for the dateline episode. I could,
I should, I know, Ijust I wish. I want to
get into this, but it seemsalmost too complicated to start now like I
needed to. The day it happenedhasn't even started. Yeah, but it
seems like it's been going for likethree years though people it does. Keith

(42:07):
Morrison will explain it all to us, Willie, I hope so z lex
weather mostly sunny in sixties today,something clouds tomorrow. Highs in the fifties,
fifty degrees in Boston. I'm HeatherFord on one hundred point seven double
UZLX. I guess it's leaving youa little dazed and confused. One hundred
point seven wus LX, Boston's onlyclassic rock morning show. Do you think

(42:29):
a lot of the runners yesterday werecranking that bad boy up on their earbuds
while they were running the race?Eight twenty one fifty three degrees Kenny Young,
Pete Mackenzie, Heather Forward. Now, I know we got to wait
till the twenty fifth of this monthbefore we get to hear this sound early
and often with a third pick inthe NFL draft in New England, Patriots

(42:51):
have downgraded and traded their pick toDenver for they got to go to the
quarterback. I'm sorry, Daniel lsDaniels, LSU Daniels Daniels. So yeah,
before we get to the NFL draft, like I said, which is
the twenty fifth through the twenty seventh, there was another draft of sorts going
on. Oh yeah, well,you know, I mean, Caitlyn Clark

(43:12):
has been all the rage over thelast two and a half three months,
building viewership for college basketball and nowmaybe the WNBA because she was selected with
the first pick in the twenty twentyfour WNBA draft. The Indiana Fever select

(43:35):
Caitlin Clark University of Iowa and thecrowd goes wild. So she goes to
Indiana. Cost of living is nicethere, it's probably I'm sure it's one
of the better the cost of livingrates in the United States. It's got
to be above average, I wouldsay, and not too far from where
she just went to school. Yeah, so the dollar will stretch there.

(43:58):
So I looked up with spot rackis they always come out with, you
know, what kind of salaries theseplayers are going to make? So Caitlin
Clark is expected to make over thecourse of four years a four year contract,
three hundred and thirty eight thousand dollarsover the course of four years.
So was that like seventy something granda year? Yeah, all my cost

(44:20):
of living there's about forty five tofifty thousand dollars the average cost. Okay,
just an apartment in the in Indiana. Where does that rank nationally?
I don't know. I just wantedto. I just put pulled that up.
Just give you an idea. She'snot going to be she's not going
to be living well above the uh, the app but it be much better
than if she was drafted by NewYork. Yes, you know, I

(44:42):
know that's not chump change. Seventysomething grand a year, and you just
think for a professional athlete, especiallyof her caliber, there's got to be
some sort of a signing bonus,right, no word of a signing but
I don't see anything about a signingbonus. And she'll be well off the
highest salary in the WNBA, whichis about a quarter of a minut million
dollars. And who does that belongto? I don't would it matter if

(45:02):
I said their names? We'll callher Sherry right. The other thing is
I flashed back to is what Heatherbrought up, the offer from ice Cube
to play in the Big three League. Yeah. I would have totally done
that. Okay, did you seehow many games she would have to play
for five million dollars? What doyou think? Thirty three a month,

(45:25):
eight total games for five million dollars? That's it? How are you not
saying yes to that? I justthink maybe she wants the security of the
WNBA, like it's a little morelong term, it's a little more secure,
no marking for forever, and notmake that money that she'd make in
eight games. True. You madementioned earlier this morning, Kenny, if
somebody handed you a million dollars,you'd be set for life. I could

(45:49):
make it work. I mean fivemillion dollars for eight games. Not granted,
Kaitlin Clark probably has seven to ten, maybe twenty as far as I
know, things lined up to endorseOkay, where she's going to make probably
millions from that. But a coolfive million for eight games? How did
you not take that? Maybe therewas more red tape involved in Maybe there

(46:14):
was more of it appearances things likethat. Is it complex? I don't
it seems pretty simple. Eight games, five million, Okay, yeah,
I mean maybe what are the stringsattached? I don't know. I like
how people were like, well,you're just you'll destroy your reputation. I'm
thinking, and I say the samething each time. She's the only female
college basketball player I can name.She got me to watch two NCAA women's

(46:37):
games. So if she chooses tomake five million dollars on eight games and
then going to the WNBA, that'sgreat. That's great because she'll still be
the only person I can name.And I'm not proud of that. I'm
just saying across the country, she'sit. She was on SNL, she
did a whole bit. Everybody,everybody knew who she was. That's where

(47:00):
we are. Strike while the iron'shot. There's no there's there's You don't
lose anything about I don't. Andit was mostly like men saying, you
just you can't do that. Itis just to be a stain on your
reputation. Str make the stupid money. I didn't hear anybody say that.
Who's saying that. I heard peoplesay Stephen A. Smith quote something,
don't go to the you got togo to the w NBA because that's where

(47:21):
it's classy, and that's where you'regoing, and that's where your career should
be. Yeah, it's just stupid. I don't take the dirty money every
time. It's not dirty money.What is dirty money? It's a league
and watch I've watched more of thosethan I have women's basketball and ice cubes.
The man, I mean, he'she's he does know what he's doing.
Yea, I know, I'm surprised. Well maybe maybe it's not over

(47:44):
yet. I don't know. Butshe's drafted and she'll make three hundred and
eighty thousand over four years, Overfour years, and what are the top
players in the w n B Amake quarter of a mill Yeah that's I
mean, that's as they're paying rightnow. Well, it's sorry. You're
going to see her on the wheatiesbox pretty soon, I haven't feel.
Does anyone eat anymore whedies? Yeah? Do you? Well I do.

(48:07):
I don't even know if I've seenit in a grocery store. She's doing
state farms, she's doing gata already. She's got a million of those lined
up. I bet endorsements. Iwill tell you. Two weeks back when
I was going through that fever inthe middle of the week, the high
fever and the body aches and allthat. I got down with some raisin
bran. Yeah, still going strong. I can eat. That Never felt
more regular in my life. Youknow what? One hundred point seven w

to like, uh to you know, learn some new stuff here. You

(53:13):
could learn about the fact that thethousand dollars bribe is about to start for
today. That's right. Thirteen chancesto grab a thousand bucks every hour in
the tents sounds pretty inviting, right, We're just throwing money around, Pete.
This comes out of your bank account, so make sure these checks are
going to clear. Okay, Oh, that's unfortunate to hear. I did
not know that, Kenny. There'llbe a lawsuit then, Oh really one

(53:35):
of them bounced checks or what?You can't you can't go into somebody's bank
account without their knowledge. Well youhave to ask Showy Tani about that,
right translator? Yes, how didthat guy have access sorry sidebar, how
did he have access to translator tohis bank accounts? Apparently he considered him
a good friend. Yeah, personalassistant translators happened before, it's happened in

(53:55):
pro golf. You can remember acouple of guys that were, you know,
thought they had friends that were takingcare of their finances and they were
dipping. Yeah, skimming. Well, there's no skimming going on here.
Like I said, nine to tenmoments away. All you have to do
when you hear that first keyword,and in fact, all thirteen keywords every

(54:15):
hour on the test, just enterthem online at WZX dot com. You're
listening all the time anyway on theiHeartRadio apps, so you know when you
pop that open and you hit ZLX, you're going to see the little pop
up window asking you to enter thatkeyword every hour. So we'll make it
happen for you. Now, ifone thousand dollars an hour isn't enough for
you, maybe you need something alittle more secure, a little more long

(54:35):
term. I understand Mega Millions isalready up to almost one hundred and fifty
million for tonight, so I thinka thousand dollars bribes is a little more
secure than that. All chances arebetter odds, right, Yes, Peter,
are you getting tickets for Mega Millionstonight? Two hundred million minimum,
Kenny? Okay, all right,So I'll have you on your own.
I'll have to do a little sidehustle. That means I'll go into the
garage and return cans and bottles tocome up with the money for it.

(54:58):
So yeah, good luck at nineten here for one hundred point seven WZLX,
Boston's only classic rock morning show.You two, are are they done
with that Vegas residency at the Sphere? You know that giant globe out there
the Sphere? I don't think media. I know they added a bunch more
dates that stretched into April, butI don't know if they're done yet.
You two looks like Dead and Companyis going to reunite and do some shows

(55:21):
out there there. Was some loosetalk of the Eagles maybe doing a show
there, but uh, in orderto cover costs. I mean, that
thing's already underwater, right, thesphere because it was just so expensive to
build. It's like a lot,but the seats are expensive. Yeah,
but it's a I mean, anyany video I've seen of it is it's
unable. Yeah. It makes mewant to go out there and check that

(55:42):
that globe. I'm sorry, thesphere out. Uh it is nine to
twenty six, Kinny Young, Pete, McKenzie, Heather Ford. Uh,
here's a strange story, and ithas to do with a body disorder that
I didn't know existed, and it'sjust it's completely horrifying. I was going
to bring it out. I wasgoing to save it. There's so many
things about my body I hate.Yeah. Wow, Okay, not a

(56:05):
lot of self esteem in this corner, Heather Pete. I want you to
just lay down on the couch fora minute, okay, and think back
to where it all start. Okay, when you begin to p Wilson handles,
let's go right there. I'll gowith that first love handles. Get
those removed. I don't know ifyou can do that yet. Here,
we're going to go up to Quebec, Quebec, Canada for this story,

(56:27):
which doesn't sound like this sounds likeyou know, American South story, a
Florida story, but no, thisis coming from Quebec, Canada. A
man recently asking his doctors to removehis fourth and fifth fingers on his left
hand because he quote felt they didn'tbelong on his body. He had been

(56:47):
experiencing traumatizing thoughts that the last twofingers of his left hand since childhood,
throughout his entire life. I thinkhe's in his late thirties here, that
these two fingers were causing him pain, constant irritability, impaired dexterity, and
nightmares. I've watched degrees anatomy wheresomeone felt that way about their foot and

(57:08):
kept asking to have their foot removed. Huh. So it's it's part of
a thing called b I D Bodyintegrity identity disorder, in which, uh,
what's the treatment other than you know, removing the digits. At least
in Canada, he had to meetwith not only his primary care physicians,
but two separate psychiatrists to see ifhis behavioral therapy was gonna if he was

(57:35):
fit to have these fingers removed.By the way, not that this is
real life, but it was basedon something like this in Gray's Anatomy.
When they wouldn't do it, theguy attempted to chop his own foot of
Oh god, yeah, yeah,this bid is extremely rare and the conditions
characterized. People have a strong andpersistent desire to acquire a disability. You've
probably heard stories about people like needingto be in a wheelchair even though they

(57:58):
were physically able to walk, Butin this extreme case, they want to
amputate parts of their body, likeHeather was saying here. So this dude
up in Quebec had had to meetafter a full psychiatric evaluation, the patient
was deemed capable of requesting a voluntaryamputation of these two fingers. Now,
interestingly enough, Oh and he evenhe worked in a sawmill. You would

(58:22):
have thought at some point in hiscareer he would have thought, well,
screw those doctors, I'm just gonnaI'm they're just gonna lop them off myself
and maybe get workmans. But heyeah, he wanted to make sure he
did this the right way. Solisten to this though. So they do
the operation, they remove his twofingers on the left hand here, okay,
And then what they noticed is theydid a full post op and not

(58:45):
only did his vivid nightmare stop,but he said he immediately noticed that he
had no more pain in his lefthand now that those fingers were gone.
So call it the psychosomatic, callit hypochondria. I don't know what you'd
call it. But they act.Not only did they do the operation,
but this guy says he's never feltbetter in his entire life. You know
what he noticed. He probably noticedhe probably couldn't go ten pin bowling anymore.

(59:07):
Oh that's right. Yeah, probablywould have been good at candlepin though,
maybe one hundred points though. UzelaxSposton's Open Classic Rock Morning Show nine
to fifty. Mid fifties. Alreadythings a warming up out there. It'd
be striking a little white ball withthe crooked stick later, and I think
you might just go with the shortsleeve shirt today. I'm just thinking around

little while golf slacks slacks, longpants, Pete. I thought it was

(59:50):
interesting this morning when you first camein. He gave me a full rundown

you were just draining long pots andwell the first three first hole I birdied.
I got birdie out of the gatethis season. It was great.
Then I got a par and theywere both twenty foot putts long putts.
Third hole, I took an eight. I took an eight on a par

(01:00:14):

that card? No you can't.All right, how did you fare for
nine holes? Then when you weredone forty three? That's not you chabby?

(01:00:37):
