Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Let's do this, Fans in yourseat thumps. I wake up every morning
Boston's only classic rock morning show.I look at myself at the mir and
I go maybem dreaming, ayb I'mawake dreaming, Nama sneak with Pete McKenzie.
I'm still vomit before every show theFord and feel dirty and unsatisfied.
And Kenny Yung. Yeah, let'sget crazy. In other words, I'm

(00:25):
crazy one seven. I want youto go hard fast, Tabby, get
too it. Here's to the future, will you see X. They got
drunk dumpster diving outside of where it'shad a wicket hangover. They gave them
fluids at good night's rest and thenrelease them after a big breakfast, hopefully
Frida eggs and halfbrowns. I wouldn'tmind some Frida eggs and ash browns.

(00:48):
Maybe a little later on this morning, maybe some of those thin sausage patties
that I like so much. They'redelicious, can't you? But I don't
know about talking about dumpsters. Ifyou're from framing him, well, a
little bit of a top. Ohthe irony. My name is Skinny Young.
Good morning on this twenty second ofApril it's Earth Day. Oh is
it Monday already? You can't swear, you idiot, You're an idiot,

(01:11):
you're too young. And then youswear. Oh yeah, yeah, that's
how I felt this morning when thatalarm went off. I'll tell you this
about that. Good morning, HeatherFord, Good morning. Oh there right
across the street, and I loveit. You have roosters across the street.
I'm all over the place, theanimal control officers down the road,

(01:34):
so we hear all sorts of things. Roosters are great, Yeah, and
they go all day. Honestly,they're not going because it's the sun rise.
They're going because it's the sun Acouple of streets over used to have
a rooster up until about a yearago, and suddenly that voice was silenced.
Yeah, there's three dogs in ourneighborhood, in fact, right next
door to each other. Mine included. That seemed to wake everybody up at

(01:56):
six am, but nobody complains becauseeverybody's got dogs in the neighborhood. That
dog lover's name is Pete McKenzie.Hi there so far. Although I like
the fact that you're sending critics booksabout farting something about that. It's very
funny. Yeah, your critics theyget a little wordy, they get a
little mouthy, and you send thebooks about farting. It's a good,
nice balance, A great Michael Douglassthere, did you see he was mistaken

(02:17):
as a grandparent when he was actuallya parent at a graduation ceremony? No,
it is. But he is agrandparent, isn't he. He probably
might be. He's gotta have Idon't know, does he. I mean,
well, he's got older kids,one of them was in prison for
a while. Remember of course he'sa grandparent. Yes, but he goes
to, you know, attend thisgraduation ceremony for his kid. No,
I know he's mistaken as a grandparent. I'm wondering if any of his older

(02:39):
kids did have kids, or ifit's just that one that was in prison
right now. That's yeah, yeah, that's an easy check. I would
think grandchildren he is, Oh god, he's like his dad. Dog he's
got his dad was one hundred andfour when he died. He was Yeah,

(03:00):
yeah, Kirk Douglas was. He'sa good act. Three children,
Cameron who he had with Catherine ZadaJones, but I think there's two that
he had with his first wife,DeAndre Luker, who he was married to
from seventy seven to two thousand.So I'm not not getting any grandchildren here
on the list. Maybe he isn'ta grandfather maybe maybe not. Well he

(03:20):
should be, he should be.How old is he? He is currently
seventy nine, he'll be eighty inSeptember. And he and his current wife
Sheriff birthday, not the year,but the day, and then they're like,
what are they like insanely apart.She's like, she's going to be
fifty five and he's going to be. Yeah, that's that's super fun for

(03:42):
her. I guess it is.It's not five. He must have been
like really cool, like when theyfirst got together. And now he's almost
eighty year old. He's like hisdad. He's like the dad, his
dad that I remember when I wasa kid. Yeah, because I feel
like Kirk Douglas was like this ageforever. Yeah, eighty to one hundred
and four, right, he wasalways old. He always looked like that.

(04:04):
Yeah, even when he was likeforty five, he looked like that
exactly, whereas Michael Douglas. WhenI was growing up, my mother loved
Romancing the Stone. Oh yeah,you know, and I was always like,
Wow, that guy's really cool andhe kills things in South America is
an adventure. He's an adventure.That's how I remember him. Was just
his dad. He made some goodmovies. I don't I don't mean to

(04:25):
go back to dumpsters, But whatthe hell's happening at Shoppers World in your
town? And where is Shoppers Worldcompared to where you guys live? Like,
is that our dread? It's hometwo and a half miles north of
me on Route nine, so itis Route nine, So I've passed it
like a gazillion time. What's betweenRoute nine and Route thirty? Okay,
oh, I know, I definitelyroad. Yes, yes, Wow,

(04:48):
that's a crazy story. The firstthing that popped into my head is he
was I'm just speculating here. I'mnot, you know, but yeah,
there's not a lot they're telling usyet. They're not telling us that I
was thirty years old. He wasworking at that place. Somebody either wanted
something that he was throwing away andhe wouldn't give it up because it was
backed by the dumpster, or Idon't know, there's drugs involved. Had

(05:10):
to be somebody he knew and knewwhere he was going to be, you
know what I mean? Yeah,which which I mean it? Though?
By the way, was it WorldMarket or was it the Panini Place?
It was next to the there's ahot Panini shop there. There was also
a haircut place and a World Market. Yeah. The DA's office said the
victim had obvious trauma to his bodyand that the case had been referred to

(05:31):
the state's Office of the Chief MedicalExaminer to determine the cause of death.
So obvious trauma to the body couldmean he was beaten up because it is
gambling debts, could mean he gotshot, could mean it was stabbed.
I mean, obvious to the body? Does that? Could that mean he
just got shot? That doesn't soundlike shot, and hitting the head with
a bat sounds more like yeah,trauma to the head. Trauma sounds more

(05:53):
like a beating. She feel sobad because you just don't want everything to
end in a dumpster. No,right, it's just so it's such a
public place too, and it's it'swell lit. I mean there's lights and
security cameras all around there, soI think this is going to be one
of those they'll find the person quickly, or persons yeah. I mean,
well, all the back of thestores at Shoppers World face a road.

(06:15):
Yep, yeah, yeah, that'swhat they just showed, right, So
there's roads all the way around theback of it, and the last traffic
lights the storefronts face the parking lot. It's just it's just by the way
I'm looking at the sign for ShoppersWorld, it's very old school, kind
of like, has this been aroundfor like eighteen thousand years? Yeah,
that sign's been around for a while. That's like, we're not going to
update our sign. We're going toactually keep this as a classic forever.

(06:38):
And just at the point where it'skind of out of style, you're like,
just ride it out ten twenty yearsof this and then all of a
sudden, it's a classic, right. I think they should go mid century
modern and make it angled and youknow, throw some knee on lights on
it. When I used to gothere is it. When I used to
go there as a kid, itwas like half the size it was now,
but it was like an outdoor mall, but it had like the courtyard
and the center of it. Andthe big thing was around the holidays because

(07:00):
they would deck it out to thenines with like millions of lights and those
world famous tin soldiers that were likethey were like twelve feet tall, which
are now the city thankfully held ontothem and they placed them in strategic places
around the holidays. But those tinsoldiers like marked like the entrances and everything,
and it was always like, Oh, it's magical to go to shoppers
I have a real question for you. Is that like going out to the

(07:21):
country For you guys from Newton downRoute nine to No, We're just going
to a shopping mecca because they alsohad a child World and a Toys r
Us so it was like a specialoccasion. You're like, we're all going
to Shoppers World, going to ShoppersWorld. Bab we leaving Newton the Lex
weather mostly sunny in fifties today,same for tomorrow except a bit warmer forty
two degrees In Boston. I'm HeatherFord on one hundred point seven double UZLX,

(07:45):
Boston's only classic rock borning show.Yeah, cool week overall. I
saw I didn't see much in theline of anything above fifty five for a
high this week, So strap in. We got to get through April here
and then before you know it maysixty degrees on the rig. We'll finally
dig out all those pots that havebeen taking over my shed for so long
that'll hopefully magically come back to life. Not a green thumb, as you

(08:07):
know. It's Kenny Young, PeteMcKenzie, Heatherford. What a weekend we
had here for Boston sports. Whata weekend. And I'm gonna lead off
with Sure, the Red Sox hada sweep. We'll get into that a
little bit later, but I'd liketo talk about our Boston Bruins. What
a performance on Saturday to open upthe playoff run, the five to one

(08:28):
victory over the Leaves, eh Man, I just knew from the drop they
had a little extra pep in theirstep when they got on the ice.
I like the postgame comments from JakeDebrusk saying, Yeah, I really didn't
have that great of a regular season, so I wanted to come out and
make a difference when it's no winsand no losses, run a fresh start.
Yeah he did. He made asplash all right, with three points,

(08:50):
two goals and assist. A Beachererhad a nice goal. Brandon Carlow
had a nice snipe on Saturday too. Yeah, So a great way to
start at the playoffs here Jay swaythirty five saves h I Swayman was a
man to be reckoned with, butreally he played more than half the game
in the leaf zones. I loveyour throwback sweater, Kenny, or by

(09:13):
the way, I'm wearing my Bruinscolors today. Yeah, I've sent your
black and gold black and gold witha hat. But Kenny's got his throwback
kim Neely jersey on. Yeah,I got my late eighties jersey. Actually
purchased when I was about thirteen yearsold, So I think that puts it
around eighty seven eighty eight this jersey, Like, I don't think you could
get past that's a really good condition. Yeah, yeah, not wear it

(09:35):
a lot as a child. No, I wore it a lot as a
child, at least to wear itplaying street hockey all the time. Wow,
it's like still bright and vibrant.I know, I know it's durable.
Thank you tied yes with color safetechnology. Yeah, it fits him
like a T shirt, though itdoesn't fit him like, right, that's
sweater. Did I mention I gotit when I was thirteen? Well,
I just liked that it fits inthe belly area. Still I can still

(09:56):
wear the throwback. But the otherreason I'm rocking the throwback today is because
we're throwing back to when we usedto give away Bruins tickets regularly. We
got a big, big playoff packagefor you here coming up at eight twenty
five when your way to tonight's game, Game two of the twenty twenty four
Playoffs, presented by Rapid seven BeesLease seven o'clock, you could be there

(10:18):
on us. There's still a selecttickets you can purchase for tonight's game Boston
Bruins dot Com slash Playoffs. Butas I said, get in on the
original six action. Nothing like playoffhockey, and there's nothing like winning your
way into the garden tonight during round. And don't let those Leaf fans buy
up those tickets that are left.Yeah, yeah, go get them,

(10:39):
Go get them, grab them,snatch them up. Meanwhile, eight twenty
five will have your hookup. We'vegot your freebie from a Planet Fitness WCLX
Studios. Now, thanks for makingus part of your morning. Great story
on WX boss. One of themost universally agreed upon things in New England

(11:01):
sports wise is that everyone loves MatthewSlater, correct like just hands down.
He was a he performed well,he's a nice guy. We love it
his speeches. We you just youjust love him. And when he retired,
we all thought he is going tostay here and he is going to
work for the Patriots. All right, we were right about that, But

(11:22):
what in holy hell is his job? Honestly, I was trying to figure
out what his new job is withthe Patriots and correct me if I'm wrong.
All I could figure out was he'sreally good friends with Girod Mayo and
he's his right hand man, butnot an assistant coach. That's what I
saw in quotes, right hand manto Mayo. What does that mean?

(11:45):
Why is he assistant coach? Whyisn't he assistant? Well, the other
thing I saw in quotes was soundingboard on football, Yeah, that's what
I saw. And team building,which is so vague. He tells me
he's in charge of arts and craftsand ministry. Is he gonna command and
continue to give pre and post gamespeeches? Yeah? What's he going to
do? Team building? A culture? Culture? Team building? Why couldn't

(12:07):
they give him a title? Though? I think it's great, I think
it's awesome, but I would feelbetter if they were like, this is
Matthew Slater is going to be,you know, the assistant coach for whatever,
and that's it. But instead theyadded all these like weirdities, Like
I could nobody's been around the youknow, the team long enough as a

(12:28):
player than Matthew Slatter and for himto be hired as the team building coordinator
makes complete sense. I agree,I've just never heard it, you know,
get back to patriot culture or anew culture, whatever the culture is
going to be, like maybe morefun. You got to not trading down

(12:50):
this week and taking a quarterback atnumber three, just something like that.
Sorry, I'm getting ahead of myselfso obvious. So there was that.
I actually kept reading the story toto see if it was just because it
was so early and I my brainwasn't working properly. But it's good to
know that you also found that vagueand weird. And then the other big

(13:11):
story is the one out of yourtown. The both of them looking at
both of you eyes. Yeah,we're there all the time, shoppers World.
What's the biggest thing at shopping inthe squirrel in the square. That's
the biggest thing. I love inthe square. It's awesome best fine looks
like a So it's like an outdoorstrip, Mad Marshals, Oh gotcha used
to have a bob story I wasfond of. Now it's a public lands

(13:33):
or something. Well, now it'swhere a thirty year old man was found
dead in a dumpster. I mean, it's just the imagery is awful,
and it's his body was he wasmurdered in a way that it's not insane
that it was shot, saying thathe was trauma body trauma is beat up.
You guys said that there's a roadthat goes right behind where all of

(13:56):
the dumpsters are because it's set upkind of like a core yard Shoppers World.
There's roads on either side, soyou're driving past these dumpsters, you're
driving past well lit areas. SoI mean, so one cameras, those
are cut through they're not like mainroads, they're cut throughs around Shoppers World.
I think I've got been on it. Yeah, that road connects thirty
and Route nine. Oh god,I know exactly where that is. Oh

(14:20):
oh god, highly traveled. Yeah. So the other thing is maybe it's
a car someone you know recorded iton their car. They have cameras going
or two do you think there areplaces across the street from that that had
a camera or is it more woodsy. Uh, there's a spillover parking lot
for Logan Express directly across that roadfrom where these dumpsters are. Would there
be a There could be cameras possibly, I would think though at the back

(14:43):
of the building parking lot for youknow, Famingham's Logan Express, there may
be cameras over there. And why, I mean no one, There's no
information given, no like why heworked at one of those stores. Yes,
this guy, the thirty year old, Yes, I think maybe he
was jumped. But then they thinkthey know who for what each other were.

(15:03):
I would think they seems targeted,right, they knew where he was
going to be gambling dead perhaps,I don't know. I don't know,
but people who go to Shoppers Worldwere just as surprised by this as we
are, and maybe more so peershock. I'm well, here for a
sandwich and then finding out that thehomicide happened right maybe one hundred feet from
me is insane. Yeah, That'sthat says it all to you. I'm

(15:24):
two things we need to figure outmore about. We had two mysteries during
these headlines what the hell does MatthewSlater do? And I love him and
I want him ministrate things? Andwhat happened to this poor man who ended
up in a dumpster behind Shoppers World? Is the lex weather mostly and by
the way, the three of uswill not have any answers for you today.

(15:45):
We will just post questions because that'swhat we do right. Mostly sunny
and fifties today, same for tomorrow, except a bit warmer, forty two
degrees in Boston. I'm Heather Fordon one hundred point seven though us C
LEX AC DC your two thousand andthree inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame, which I think atthis point we can all just agree just

(16:06):
call it the Popular Music Hall ofFame and then everyone won't be crying and
butt heard about their favorite artists notgetting in or somebody not from the rock
and roll world getting in. Well. Over the weekend, the twenty twenty
four class of Hall of Famers wasannounced and Dave Matthews Band far and Away
running away with the fan vote,was a first ballot, or not first

(16:26):
ballot because he's been nominated before,so Dave Matthews Band is in share Foreigner
finally getting the nod as well asPeter Frampton. Yeah that was you know,
at least from the classic rock standpoint. A lot of people were like,
I thought Foreigner was already in theHall of Fame. Yeah, well
they will be now cool in thegang Mary J. Blige Ozzy Osbourne as

(16:49):
a solo artist, which I thought, you know, no question, He's
going in tribe called quest, soa deep performer category artists. I think
this is going to be the mostfor an induction class. It is,
so there you have it. JimmyBuffett is getting a posthumous Musical Excellence Award.

(17:10):
But I thought this was an interestingquote getting back to what I was
saying about. You know, peopleget but hurt about the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame having non rock androll artists in it. John Syke's chairman
for the Foundation, says, well, rock and roll is an ever evolving
amalgam, amalgam, amalgam, amixture, or that's what it looks like.

(17:30):
I had to look up the worda mixture or blend of sounds that
impact culture and moves generations. Thisdiverse group of inductees this year broke down
musical barriers and have influenced countless artists, well like a tribe called quest like,
they've influenced tons of different artists.I loved them when I was a
kid, So I mean, Iunderstand that most people here then don't think

(17:52):
rock and roll, but I thinkthey've inspired people in rock and roll now.
So yeah, well, I mean, like I said, it's it's
nothing naked. You can't For thelast ten to fifteen years, it's been
nothing new that you have other nonrock and roll entities in there. So
hey, if you're a foreigner Ozzy, Dave Matthews, Peter Frampton fan,
you're gonna love this year's class.All right, six nineteen Here, let

(18:14):
me remind you the bribery continues startingat nine to ten here this morning,

wz Alex Boston's only classic road morning. So six twenty nine, on this
twenty second day of April to gettingyoung Pete McKenzie heather Ford, Hopefully you

(18:36):
had a RESTful, relaxing weekend.Maybe a few adult beverages were invibes sure,
sure, maybe not so much forthese couple of neighbors down in Florida.
They got into an argument. Okay, it's dark now, it's nighttime
on Friday night, and the policeare called because one of the neighbors drove
by the other's house, rolled downhis window and pointed a gun. So

(19:00):
yeah, so the neighbor who hadthe gun pointed at him called the police,
right, and the police come andthe guy's explaining, this guy drove
by my house and pointed a windowat me. He lives right over there,
and right, you know, rightwhen he says that there's a couple
of shots fired with the police there, Yeah, right, so you know

(19:22):
they they got to go talk tothis guy or go find out carefully carefully
shots fired. Yeah, so nobodygets hurt, including the police and other
neighbors. I mean, what ifhe's just randomly firing into their owns or
something. Right, So they findhim across the street here, all right,
stare at that, right, canI crack this beer? Beer?

(19:45):
Meanwhile, the officer's got his firearmpointed at the guy. He's unarmed.
He's unarmed. He's double fisting fifteenthCentral on the I got the nail Britt
out front of where the possible shotso far? Do you have a firearm
on you? Are the firearms inthe house? Are there anyone? Is

(20:07):
there anyone else in the house?Dad, my wife's mother, Dade.
I'm talking to him now. Hejust has two beers in his hand.
But that's one of my favorite names. I wanted to name kids, but
I wasn't allowed to. Second ofall, what does he look like?
Is he a big dude? Ishe a little dude? He's bearded?

(20:30):
Yeah? Yeah? Is the beardis just beers? No, but he's
he's got two cold beers and he'sgonna drink him and he I give him
credit because he doesn't sound he's notslurring, he's not not drunk. He
is not doing what the police officersas do, not collaborating. I'm checking.

(20:52):
I'm not going I got you justfor right now. We're just gonna
stay right here, all right.Cool, that's not run the front of
his address as well. I wantyou to do. I want you to
put your hands above your head forme, all right? Why because right
now we're trying to figure out what'sgoing on, Bud, Yeah, okay,
And we won't make sure everybody's safe. I love the demeanor of the

(21:15):
cop too. Look, he knewthat, you know the guys. He
fired a couple of shots. Yeah, right, threatened neighbor. Make sure
everybody's safe here, you know.Well then they walked up to him,
Heather, and He'll be glad toknow that they cuffed him and arrested.
Okay, weirdo. Yeah, theFlorida man. Well, yeah, it's
not the first time I've been confrontedwith this problem. That's right, you

(21:37):
had me a cold beer. Isnot going to sit out too much longer.
I can guarantee Boston's only classic rockmorning show as he getting the nod
for the twenty twenty four Rock andRoll Hall of Fame despite finishing like third
in the fan vote, third orfourth. He started off like Gangbusters and
then quickly the Dave Matthews Band fansgot involved in that Rock Hall of Fame
fan vote and catapulled it their wayto the top. So, yeah,

(22:00):
Dave's going in. As I mentionedForeigner and Peter Frampton, your other classic
rockers finally getting the nod from theHall of Fame committee. I think Dave
Matthews Band was the only band everto get the People's Choice Award, the
fan vote that you're talking about,and not get in. So they did
it again. You got in thistime. They got in this time.
Listen at six forty five here andwe are less than two hours away.

(22:21):
Now, the next time you hearme play this sound, it's gonna be
at eight twenty five. All right, I'm just giving you a little precursor,
a little warm up, so you'reready for it when you hear the
world famous Bruins gold horn sound ateight twenty five today when your way into
the garden for tonight's game two tiltbetween the Bruins and Leaves. Hey,

(22:42):
oh man, it was so funwatching Saturday and we could breathe a sigh
of relief in the second period whenit was four zip. And I mentioned
this earlier about Saturday's game, likeI never got the sense in the moment
the puck dropped in the third periodthat they were gonna blow the lead.
Ever got that sense that they weregoing Well, let me ask you this,
when's the last time you ever hadthe sense that they might lose a

(23:04):
game to the Toronto maple Leafs.It's been a while, It's been a
long one of my favorite memes thatI watched or reels this week. Did
you see it. It's a Torontomaple leaf fan and he's trying to get
a ball into a little red solocup and he's like the chances that Toronto
will win the Stanley Cup. Andhe shoots the ping pong ball and it
doesn't go in. Son he putssix cups, he shoots it, it

(23:26):
doesn't go in. Then he putsan entire table the size of this table
in front of the small cups andhe shoots the ball and it doesn't go
in. And then he doubles itin size and you know what, slow
motion, it doesn't go in.So they're not feeling too positive. Climb
for Yeah, I know you needto keep the foot on the pedal.
The question remains, though I haven'tunless there was a late night announcement,

(23:49):
but I know that Monty said he'sgoing to rotate the goaltenders swam in with
thirty five stops on Saturday. Howdo you not go with the hot hand?
But to my argument, how doyou let all Mark sit on the
bench and stay cold? So Idon't know what's going to happen. Just
look at their regular season records.Those two goalies Swaymen and all Mark,
and they're nearly identical. Yeah,how blessed or way to have two front

(24:11):
ends twenty five ten and eight andtwenty two ten and seven. What about
goals allowed sick? Yeah? Whatabout goals against average? Yeah? The
goals against average is a percentage off. It's like ninety one percent for all
Mark, ninety three points something percentfor Swaymen. Okay, yeah, see
what happens tonight. They're two goodgoalies. I know it's a blessing for

(24:32):
the Bruins. And you're getting helpfrom all kinds of people too, like
even Beacher, who made his playoffdebut for the Bees, had a goal
on Saturday. So very cool stuffagain eight twenty five this morning, they're
thereabouts. We'll get you into thegarden tonight for some playoff hockey. Let's
go from a planet fitness. Wellyou see Alex Studios. Now, now,
thanks for making us part of yourMorning Lines with Heathers. Great story

(24:57):
on one hundred point seven when yousee X boss. It so much to
choose from today like that, didyou guys watch the video that showed the
coyote chasing the woman and the dogthrough a quinsy neighborhood did not. Oh
my goodness, gracious, it washorrifying. You got that. You got
back bay dozens of nine to oneone calls made to report spins, wheel

(25:19):
of things you didn't expect to happenin the back bay, drag racing cars
doing donuts, and I mean ifyou look at the you see the video,
there's so many people watching these carsdo donuts at this intersection. And
then the next day when the cameracrew's there, it looks like if aliens
were to have dropped crop circles orwhatever right in the center of the road,

(25:42):
they're just these perfectly formed circles thatdon't belong there. Was it in
an area typical of the back bay, like with trees, you know,
along the sidewalk and buildings close tothe road. Yes, Dartmouth, Wow,
I mean, I mean that's someaccurate driving. Oh, not hitting
a building or a tree. Itwasn't the tree or the building that was

(26:04):
accurate about it. When I saypeople, I mean like one hundred or
two hundred people were just feet awayfrom the back of these cars as they
were doing the donuts. Before thedrags the drivers and oh so many spectators,
like people knew, like everybody gohere at this time, you know,
residents. Although Kenny and I arehaving this discussion off air, the

(26:27):
one thing about the back Bay tome is it's such a small section of
the city and it seems to bethe least residential. In my mind,
it's the big you know what Imean, Like, I know that the
State Street area is probably even less, but back Base seems like unless you're
a gazillion era, you really living. Yeah, unless you got a brownstone
on Beacon or on a Commonwealth avethere in the back bay, what do

(26:49):
you do in there? You know? Crop circles. Anyway, they did
manage to find one resident who wastalking about the drag racing. It seemed
like a command kind of perform andthen leave, and somehow they would get
through. I saw somebody drive backwardsup up Marlborough the wrong direction to get
in, and then they were kindof heading out that way over to Beacond.

(27:10):
I thought it was going to endwith a crash. I really did.
I thought they weren't going to justdrive away. I really expected a
crash to happen. To be honest, all of us that have also driven
around that area, and all threeof us have extensively. If I saw
someone going the wrong way, Idon't know if I would have thought twice
about it, just because I wouldbe like, they're new, right,
there's so many one ways, yeah, like the one ways or it was.

(27:32):
I'd be pissed, Like I'd beangry at them and I would curse
at them, But I wouldn't besurprised by it, Like it wouldn't stick
out to me. I'd be like, great, well, who's backing up?
What are we doing now? Yeah, what's happening? And it's so
tight knit where they were doing thedonuts and stuff is like, how did
you know a car? It wouldhave been so easy for that car to
just plow through the crowd and havethis be a really tragic event. So,
I mean, I definitely couldn't havedone any of any of that wheelwork

(27:56):
that was happening. Leave it tothe experts. Leave try it at home.
Don't ever try it, even ifyou think you're an expert. They're
very good at it. Let's throwthat, okay, throwing that out there
games. I have one piece ofthe Karen Reid trial. I can get
behind by the way that I sawand I thought about and I read it,
and then I looked at the pictureand the headline on NBC Boston is

(28:18):
why is Karen Reid's defense team concernedwith the jury box? And You're like,
yeah, why would they even beconcerned with the jury box? It's
because to be they're saying, tobe on a jury, you have to
be able to look at the peopletestifying, right, you have to be
able to see them the way thejury box is. There are jury I'm
going to twisch this for you.There are jury members who will only see

(28:40):
the back of the head who setsup a quarter of the people testifying.
So if you can't determine or not, or if you don't have a good
seat in the box, you're notgonna be able to read the body language.
Is this fair? That's the onething I can get behind. But
first of all, who designed thiscourtroom? Is it an old timey courtroom?
How is that court room? Evenif it is, shouldn't you be

(29:02):
able to see the people? Imean, has it been that way forever?
Turn around? Maybe that courtroom hasbeen that way forever. It might
have been, but centaurs have beenlooking at back of heads for decades.
That's wrong. I mean there's powderedwigs on the desk because they tell you
how old it is. Yeah,right, it doesn't seem fair at all.
Yeah, So I'm wondering they I'mthinking they're going to win this argument,

(29:22):
right, and then what do theydo? Do they have to change
the venue, change the venue,transfi the No, you know what they
do. They put the person thatthat's that's testifying in a in a rotating
chair, right, that's what soyou only get what their faces like a
rotating Sunday time and what you've alwayswanted to perform on that's right, as

(29:45):
they get closer to you. Yeah, exactly. No, I'm going to
say no to that, z Lex. Weather mostly sunny in fifties today,

would end up opening. It lookslike tea. It looks like two people
at tea. So you have thosepictures. First, Wow, that was
very quaint looking. That looks verylovely. Thank you. In fact,
I think I have the proper musicfor that too. This high tea that
you went to the boys the boystook me to Aroom, a blushroom,

(33:08):
a restaurant slash tea place called Fancythat in Walpole. I got a tiara.
I must have put down that itwas my birthday or that we were
celebrating a birthday or special occasion,so I don't. I have made the
reservation months ago, so I didn'tremember that. She's like, would you
like a tara? And I'm like, of course I would. It's me

(33:29):
and three men who And I willtell you that picture is definitely how they
were they and you'll notice the traysare empty for the most part. They
mowed the food down, which wasexcellent. And then they they each ordered
their their tea and had it theway they like it, with sugar or
with milk, and they had theirclotted cream with their with their scones or

(33:50):
their scums, depending on sandwiches.Oh yeah, then and there was like
a breeze sandwich there, and therewas a chicken salad sandwich and the bread
was cut out like a star.It was so much fun. One of
your boys looks like he's drinking coffeeat a diner, and the other looks
like he's drinking tea. Yes,yes, yes, William looks like put
the one arm down, Yes,one arm down, and he's the way

(34:13):
he's looking at me right, yes, and the other and the other boy
is Bobby holding the cup with bothhands? Yes, and that's sure to
hold the top of the tea kettle. That's good that you brought that up,
because I was going to say,your youngest is showing proper tea etiquette.
But what raised my eyebrow was tosay it go ahead, hello,
kitty fizzy pop drink? Right?Is that doing it? Because John and
I each had a glass of champagnefor my birthday, okay, and I

(34:37):
wanted them to be able to havesomething fizzy, and so we did a
toast. I'll be honest with you, I thought they were Pringles cans on
the table. That's the kind ofhigh tea I'm going through it, Yes,
So then I will like to dAnd then that was beautiful. And
that's basically all we did that day. I relaxed and slept for a bunch.
That was my But this was themusic that played right, No,

(34:57):
they had like I think it wascountry music. I don't know what it
was. I don't remember, butI remember Bobby looking at me and going
is this tea music? And Igo, Bobby. We are not in
any position to decide what tea musicis. We've only been to this kind
of tea three or four times now. I'd like to draw your attention to
the other two pictures, which iswhere I spent all day yesterday. Yesterday

(35:20):
morning, I woke up again atthe buck crack of dawn. I put
my youngest in a car and Iwent and picked up two his two closest
friends, Liliana and Abby, atonce from Foxborough by the way, once
from Walpole. None of them goto the same school. They're all the
Black Belts. Yes, I justlove these kids. I love it when
they're together. And so I wentto six Flags New England in Agama for

(35:45):
the day while they rode roller coasters. I have a season pass, so
does Bobby, so parking's free.Not free, I mean I paid for
it, basically, but I hada time so we can go to as
many things and many places as wewant around the country because Bobby loves roller
coasters and so do I. Butyesterday I spent the day in an Adirondack
chair. When I wasn't walking aroundlooking creepy staring at people going on rides,

(36:07):
just waiting. Do you like togo on the roller coaster? I
love to go on the roller coast. You wouldn't like would you go on
with them? Or I didn't wantto disturb their world? I get it,
and they wouldn't have minded. Iwent on one or two rides with
them. I went on the swingsthat go and if you've been to the
New England six Flags, you knowthat those swings are scary and a way
up in the sky, way upin the bit of a windshell factor to

(36:28):
deal with. Yesterday motion alone,it was freezing up there. I'm sorry.
I was just wondering what were thelines like On an April twenty first,
it was packed and it was thelast day of vacation in Massachona.
So those kids, when I leftthem, I set up meet me back
here. In three hours, theyhad gone on one ride twice. That's
that's how long the lines were forSuperman and for the big Ride nice ye

(36:51):
weekend on that birthday. But ifyou notice in one of the pictures,
Bobby's holding up a giant looks likeWalrus, I think, and it says
I'd hug you if I had arms, and it does have arms, which
is weird, but he won that. Note he's not The other two are
like softball players, basketball players.They're like Bobby runs and does martial arts,

(37:14):
right, he doesn't throw things.So you know that thing where you
throw a bean bag and there's liketin cans or there's cans heavy cans lined
up and you got to knock themall over with two bean bags and they
have to fall off the shelf.Right. So they had played a bunch
of games and they weren't winning,and Bobby's like, I'll try it,
and I go, Bobby, youdon't throw things. Ever, he goes,

(37:34):
I'll do it, and then Iwas like, okay, So I
gave the guy the five dollars orwhatever. Bobby throws the bean bag and
he knocks all of them over exceptthe two on the outside bottom. So
he's left with a split and I'mlike, well, now you're definitely not
gonna get it, but that wasa really nice try. He goes hold
on, he walks six seven feetoff to the side, gives himself an
angle. The mathematic was there.He walked to the side and he shot

(37:58):
the bean bag and knocked him.Well, see, I thought the two
on the outside are the ones theyglue down. Apparently not nice. But
so now I'm now I'm stuck withthis giant great Dane chew toy. No,
that's not gonna last in my house. I like the T shirt that
the stuff Manate's wearing, which readsI'd hug you if I had armed exactly.

(38:19):
Yeah. So, yeah, thatwas my weekend. That was my
birthday weekend. I had a goodtime. Yeah, sounds like it.
I love tea tea, see again, I like my tea with a little
brown bourbon liquor. Sure you couldhave this, is man. I offered
you a flask. Did well,I don't want to put any liquor.
I offered you a little Go Gojuice. Have boys that will do that

(38:39):
for me? I was very pleased. Yeah, you got your fizzy pops
and they got their fizzy pop andI got my champagne. Nice nice spring
birthday weekend right there, especially onfour to twenty man. Yeah, hey
listen, coming up at eight twentyfive, you're gonna hear that Bruins goal
horn that earn your two tickets forthe night's game at the Garden from the

(39:00):
planet Fitness w CLX Studios, HorizonNow, now, thanks for making that
part of your morning idiots. Greatstory. Thank God one seven WCLX Boston.
Yo, how to my crack teamof investigators do? Because I threw
it out there at six o'clock?What in holy hell is Matthew Slater is
supposed to be doing for the NewEngland Patriots. I read this morning that

(39:22):
he was hired question Mark buy theNew England Patriots to do what I don't
really know except be best friends withDrod Mayo. What's more clear than that
air quotes that they put it inright hand man to jirod Maya, the
left hand man. I'm left handed. I just don't, I thought to
myself. Everybody loves men like It'sone of those universally known things that if

(39:45):
you are a New England Patriot fan, you love Matthew Slater. You love
what he did for the team onthe field, and you especially love what
he did off the field. Weall love listening to his speeches after a
game, We like listening to himduring press conferences. Just in don't know.
He's just a super good person.But when I read this morning that
he get hired by the Patriots.I oh, that makes sense because we

(40:07):
all thought this man's staying destined forto be a coach. Well, why
did they not put assistant coach orwhatever he's doing? In my opinion,
if anybody could be a culture coach, it's Matthew Slater. The culture of
the culture, a team culture,team culture, team unity, not putting
yourself above the team. You're saying, is he is the epitome of that.

(40:30):
You didn't do your research, thenwe still have no idea what he's
going to They didn't give him atitle for crying out loud, right,
man, is not something you puton a business card. He's going to
be whispering in the year of girodMayo. I mean, what is he
gonna be talking to the team andgetting them pumped up before the game.
Isn't that the coach's job? Like, what what is he going to do?
We did get a suggestion from thefive O eight from Mike, and

(40:53):
Mike says big Mike, you knowbig Mic Oh yeah, what about goodwill
ambassador? Then good will ambassador,I say, I say, goodwill ambassador
of arts and crafts and team culture, arts, crafts and team culture.
That's what I think I think itwould be a team full of guys that
would love to do arts and crafts, right, I think football players,

(41:15):
Let's do it break from football,you know, mystics like recess, like
fifteen minute break arts and crafts.That's what I'm with you on that.
But maybe he's going to be amotivational speaker like mad Foley. No,
but would be something. Just givehim a title then, I just don't
understand why it was so vague.Yeah, maybe they just haven't created that.

(41:35):
It's not it's definitely not going tobe assistant head coach, is it?
No? And I'm here and I'mglad he's staying. And everybody wants
a little bit of Matthews later inlife. His atmosphere, his environment that
he creates is going to get peoplemore. I'm not mad by this.
I'm just confused because there's no title. Right, But everybody knows what his
role was with the Patriots. Imean, he's a special teams player.
What did he see like like literallythree minutes of act I know, I

(42:00):
know, it's not even in agame. It's kind of like working in
radio, Like I know specifically whatwe do, the three of us in
this room. There's a whole bunchof people out there. I have no
idea, Like their job titles saynothing to me, Like it speaks nothing
to me. What do you do? I don't know. I mean they
do things. But it's kind oflike with this Matthew Slater, what's he
going to do? He's gonna bewhispering and speaking and speeches and he's going

(42:22):
to be a great staff member.I think, I agree. I agree
with you that story out of framinghim, though, I hate to go
from high to low here, butit's your town. This is the place
with it. I know, yeah, nothing to do with it, but
everything's there at Shoppers World. ButI mean, I'm gonna get if you
didn't know what I was going totalk about. Shoppers World. There was

(42:42):
a murder. It seems like itwasn't a shooting, and a body was
like this is awful. Body wasleft in a dumpster. And according to
you two, and I've been there, I don't see it as clearly in
my mind as you two. Butthe dumpsters the backs of the stores at
Shoppers World are facing a road.Yeah that has like there's going to be
cameras well lit. There's cameras backthere for I guess thievery possibilities. So

(43:07):
they got to find this person quest. Shoppers World is an outdoor shopping mall,
all right, and the parking lotis a courtyard. Basically it's huge.
It's it's enormous. And then soall the storefronts face each other and
kind of a square, a bigsquare. And so all the backs of
these stores are on access roads.Yea even fluty pass I think is one

(43:30):
of them. It is, Yeah, that one's on the other side,
but it's the same. Yeah.To your point, it's like, whoever
did this? They're right out therein the open. There's lights. Every
ad got to be cameras. Iknow this is not what you were thinking.
But it's not easy to lift abody like dead weight is a big
deal. Yep. So to getthat body in the dumpster, could you
have done that by yourself? Thatis the first thing I thought to myself.

(43:52):
Could one person lift a body intoa dumpster? Because that seems like
a dual person kind of job.Well, if it's anything I've learned from
watching all those a dexter was thatyou disassemble it. Oh, I don't
know if this body was disassembled orif they had the time to disassemble.
And then I guess, we don't. We don't know anything. This person's
family could be a we don't know. This is a local story, so

(44:12):
I don't even know the person whowas deceased. One person that was working
at one of those stores, right, yeah, so they said it was
an employee at one of the stores. Had to be targeted. This person
because they knew exactly where they weregoing to be and somehow knew they were
going to be out back at thattime or something like that. But it's
just so awful. Well a lotof times they don't, you know,
because they have a lead, right, No, No, I get that

(44:34):
with you real quick. The wayI found out about this was around six
thirty last night when my buddy PollyWall that's texted me the following, Kenny,
were you anywhere near Shoppers World lastnight? I said, No,
I was down in East Falmath allweek and I just got home. What
was going on? He says,simply murder. Yeah, And my other
friend John says, oh, you'redown the cape, perfect alibi. Yeah.

(44:55):
Yeah, It's just it's just sosad z Lex weather mostly sunny in

then we had a parlay in playwith the Bruins, all right, and
the Socks and the Celtics on Sundayand the Revs. So I'm watching the
Revs game on my phone. Asthe game progresses, Heather, and it's

not even halftime zero zero. Thenit's halftime zero zero, sixty seventh minute
zero zero. I'm like, justget one goal, right, someone did,
just get a golf somebody. Man, Toronto. They're playing Toronto.
The Bruins are playing Toronto. Thisis all gonna work out great because both
Toronto teams are gonna go down.No, here's the thing. One of

(46:52):
the Toronto teams had to win.And would you have preferred it be the
Maple Leafs or you know, theToronto I'd prefer they both lose. I
wouldn't prefer any of them to win. That's just the world only is going
to give you one win against them. So yeah, that was tough.
Yeah, I told you well,I mean one nothing they were in they

(47:14):
were in it. Hey, Igive credit to the Red Sox really,
I mean, everybody's talking about theBees and the Seas. I get it.
But I know they go into Pittsburghon the road down like Babe Ruth.

and lou Gerrigg, but they areto this team, Raphael Devers and Tyler
O'Neill. Yeah, and it'll bethe best hitters we have right now.

(47:37):
They're the best hitters in your lineup. And then Tristan Cassis goes down with
a rib injury, he might beout for a while. Now your first
base he's saying more than ten daystoo. But yeah, I mean they

two and a half games out offirst place. By the way,

(47:59):
also, I'd like to point outthat the Boston Red Sox right now have
a higher winning percentage at this pointin the season than the LA Dodgers.
I'm just gonna say that I wouldlike to point out Heather you know Scotty
Scheffler, the PGA player. Ohyeah, you're going to go back to
the revs. Oh no, no, no, no, no, that
is that why I got the raspberries. Yes, okay. So his wife,
Meredith, you know, was expectinga child, remember during the massive

that Meredith would go into labor soScotty scheffer would have to withdraw, because
he said he was going to withdrawwith a five shot lead, five shot

his demeanor. Obviously we got theresult we were looking for, you know,
but today was a day to learnfrom it, and you know has
a team. We still have aways to go. I don't know,

(49:28):
maybe Belichick is given them motivational speeches. I don't know, just keeping them
grounded. But one point to stickout here from Saturday's game. Johnny Beecher,
young left winger twenty three years ofage, playing in his first ever
playoff game, and he said,from the moment he went out there and
they dropped the lights from the nationalanthem, he was all giddy. Oh

bribe to tell you about here.They just couldn't wait. I wanted to
just stomp all over what I wasjust about to say coming out of ac

(56:37):
DC. It's Kenny Young, PeteMcKenzie, Heatherford. Twenty years ago on
this date, since we just cameout of the boys in ACDC, reports
were emerging that US Marines had setup PA towers of speakers and they were
blasting ACDC music at extremely high volumesto help drive out Muslim insurgents from their
homes in Iraq. Remember when thatwas going on, and it worked.

(57:00):
It worked. People were fleeing theirhomes the insurgents down there due to the
loud volume of ac DC music.I do thought that was interesting on this
day, and it was decimal Kenny. It wasn't the lyrics. I would
have thought they would have used reallybad music to drive them out, but
no, it's just extremely high volumes. Let's talk about another horse of a

(57:22):
different color. And that happens tobe a cold hard cash. We got
a big powerball drawing tonight, onehundred and fifteen million dollars tonight up for
grams. Not bad because you knowthere was another There was no jackpot winner
this past Saturday. Well, MegaMillions goes to two hundred million this week,
Kenny, So I'll stop, I'llstop today. We'll get in both.
Okay, I have and I forgotto buy any this weekend. But

(57:45):
if yeah, one hundred and fifteenis not enough, I was going to
say, tomorrow night's Mega Millions twohundred and two million. That's my watermark
normally. Okay, you wait tillit gets to two and then you buy.
There's two rules with Kenny, becausehe just can't wait to play.
So when one of them hits twohigh, we'll start playing both. Like
I say, I go out andget my own too. I buy the

money thirteen times every hour on thetens and your first thousand dollars bribe payoff

than an hour, give you Bruinstickets, thorough good tickets in a thousand
bucks. Look at that, lessthan an hour. How generous are we?
And with this bribe that's coming upat nine ten again, all you
have to do is enter the keywordswe give you online at wzx dot com,
No lines, no waiting, onehundred points nwzlix, Boston's only classic

(58:50):
rock morning show, nine twenty two. Here in Big Me, I always
think back to that award winning videothe band did for that song in nineteen
ninety five. You remember it.They did a take off of those mentos.
I remember the fresh Maker, Likethey're climbing into cars to get away
and it's okay because they've got thementos. Oh right, that's right.
It became a real problem because thatwas a really popular video. The song

(59:13):
did very well too on the charts, but it became a problem because when
they would go for years after thatvideo. When food fighters would play it
live, fans would throw packs mentosat the mostage. Yeah they're big,
it's a projectile. It's deadly.Not quite like throwing a battery. Kevin,
No or Ken, which is right? Well I've seen, Yes,

(59:36):
Kevin and I both had batteries thrownat us while we were standing on stage.
So that's why. Oh I knowit was gonna say hurt and his
brain and that would be way deadly. But at least with the mentos free
snacks. Sure, sure, yeah, they were seas by the way,
seaside big ones. Yeah, wellnot the d's next one, see not
those mag light circular Yeah, theyare just a smaller D A small yeah.

(01:00:00):
Yeah, you don't like you rememberthe letter of the batteries, Well
you did, wasn't it imprinted onyour head? It's actually a microphone battery.
So it was one of the engineers. We've been hit with those two,
I know. Yeah, absolutely yea. So speaking of getting hit,
the country's going to get it.Sixteen states in all are going to experience
this, this big cicada emergence.No, yeah, which is really close

(01:00:23):
to happening nowas so you got twodifferent breeds, right, thirteen and seventeen
years. Every thirteen years they comeout. Every seventeen years another one comes
out. Well it does all cometogether where they come out the same year.
We're going to have trillions of trillions, Yes, biblical, biblical,
that's what they said. Brillion.They use that word trillions, oh brillions,

(01:00:47):
sixteen different states which crops are goingto be destroyed? Will you go
after wheat corn? What do theygo after? Wow? They eat?
They haven't come out together since eighteenoh three, so maybe maybe it's people.
What if they just eat each other? Well, we had record keeping
then what happened in eighteen oh threeto everything? Do we know? Is
there a big things? I shalllook it up. Yeah, yeah.
But anyway, they're planning on youknow Louisiana down there where they eat insects

(01:01:13):
quite a bit. There's plenty ofrestaurants down there that there's no shortage of
buzz, no shortage of bugs,and they you know, there's this one
called bug appetite. And I justlove this guy's attitude. Zach is embraced,
Zach Lehman, he's embracing it.Why not? He's the chef there
he's a chef creating. Hope isthat we will either acquire ourselves or get

(01:01:34):
some periodical cicadas, the ones thatare coming out by the tens of millions
in the coming weeks, so thatwe can serve them as a specialty item
here. Now you can see thaton the Cicadas aren't usually on the menu
because most of the world's cicadas don'ttake thirteen or seventeen years to develop like
these and emerge by the millions.They are here, and there is season

(01:01:58):
them in the hand. If cookingbugs entree into discussing insects in a broader
sense, I'm all for it.Put the dressing on. I'll go grab
a four contain bipe. Apparently landbecame so cheap because of the cicadas,
and I'm just making that up rightthere. The Louisiana purchase happened then,
kind of like the establishment of Texas. So maybe the cicadas ate everything,

(01:02:20):
and whoever owned it's like, youknow what, whatever's this land for a
bargain? We got it for fifteenmillion. Will Jefferson was so smart,
it was so dumb. Yeah,yeah, it's an easy pickings. He's
like pickpocket, right, and cicadas. I'm going to say it was the
cicadas. If you said it waseighteen three. It's coming soon, right,
Yeah, what a siege? Yeah, I think they said the ground

(01:02:40):
has to reach a certain temperature andthen they start coming out, and then
the ground'm gonna look like it's moving. Not We're not gonna not here,
but I mean down there is itjust all going to be like, all
of a sudden, the ground startsvibrating and then these creatures emerge. Yeah.
They described the decibels like, youknow, not quite like like a
loud like being next to a vacuumclean. This is not fun. I

(01:03:04):
mean I can honestly say I cansit here and honestly say that at my
advancing age, I have never consciouslyeaten insects as a form of sustenance.
You just have accidentally. Yeah,you know, plenty of them. Sure,
I'll eat a bug burger at somepoint in my life. I mean
part of having an appetite that islooking at the food and delicious does not

(01:03:27):
look good. Now the bug's goingto be ground up. It's going to
be cooked and ground up into apowder. You're not even gonna know this,
chef you know this chef you sentme with the video. He's putting
these cicadas into a salad. Hewas making like a cicada salad. The
first time I eat insects, willnot I mean on purpose, will not
be again. They're gonna they're gonnacook them, They're going to grind them
into a powder, and they're gonnait's high in protein, spice. You'll

(01:03:52):
be fine. Cicadas still tasting betterthan circus peanuts one hundred points w z
l X Austin's on then Classic RockMorning Show nine forty eight, now forty
six. Man, it's just strugglingto get to fifty, but we'll get
there eventually. Today plenty of sunshinethough, so we get that going for
us, which is nice. Andit's Kitty Young Pete McKenzie head the Ford

(01:04:13):
for a few more moments till Katatakes over. Well, we were busy
doing show things, you know,like giving away Bruins tickets for Game two
tonight at the Garden, so wedidn't see this, but I guess.
Tom Brady made an appearance on TheToday Show earlier today to promote the fact
that he's going to be part ofthe first ever live roast in streaming history

(01:04:34):
on Sinco de Mayo. It's unedited, uncensored. Kevin Hart will be the
Master of Ceremonies, and it's goingto be streaming on Netflix Live on Netflix,
The Man, the Arena, theRoast of Tom Brady. They're calling
it. In the trailer for it, they put up a site that said
groat greatest roast of all time.So this is all the people they could

(01:04:56):
pick. It doesn't all it tome. Kenny is pre planned, yeah
the time, and it just seemsweird, right, Well, they want
to make it sound like it's spontaneous, but it's all planned out. Yeah,
I mean, all the comedians aregoing to have their jokes. He's
not going to have a really goodfinish. Like usually the person who's being
roasted gets to go up at theend. Who wants to watch him get

(01:05:18):
up at the end. Somebody's writingmaterial for him, I'm sure, sure,
yeah, but his delivery has neverbeen there. But the thing is
that if it's a good roast,the person at the end gets up there.
Yeah, people are writing things,but they're able to improvise based on
the jokes made about them. Imean, I mean we've all watched roasts
before. I mean, Kevin Hart'sare real safe. He's super funny,

(01:05:40):
but he's a real safe choice forsomeone like Tom Brady to run this.
But still I'm not interested. Imean, have we seen anything spontaneous from
Brady recently? I mean we knowhow he is on Saturday Night Live and
Peyton Manning kicks his ass. Let'sbe honest. Yeah, I bet Peyton
Manning is going to be part ofthis bro He would be funny. Former

(01:06:00):
players too, I mean they're justinherently funny. I mean we hate them
as NFL players, you know,both Manning brothers, but they're funny.
Brady, Well, we'll find outMay fifth, Senko to Mayo at five
pm, so it's easy to remember, you know, May fifth, five
pm. That'll be filmed at theKia Forum in LA. That's five pm
Pacific, so eight o'clock Easter.Meanwhile, this Thursday out in Detroit,

(01:06:24):
Rock City, speaking of football,finally going to find out if the Pats
are going to take a quarterback withthe number three pick. Right, basically,
I know that'll be nice, that'llbe nice. I'm putting my money
on them taking a quarterback and nottrading down because the things are different now
Foxborough. But did you happen tosee like they were running draft commercials all

(01:06:45):
weekend, and because it's in Detroit, it was Eminem sitting side by side
with Roger Goodell, which is justweird, Like I wouldn't think Eminem would
agree to do that a halftime show. Yeah, but to be palin up
with your Goodell for a commercial,I don't know. It just seemed weird.
Should be palling up with the Patriotsright hand man? All right,
Oh that's rights later. Yeah,pal up with the right hand man.

(01:07:09):
That's his official title so far.Well in the open here, I was
talking to Bruins game two tonight.I thought the Celtics Game two is going
to be tomorrow night with the heat, but no, that's gonna be Wednesday
night. So yeah, another busysports week here, and we'll cover it
