Let's do this fast and your saethumps. I wake up every morning Boston's
only classic rock morning show. Ilook at myself at the mirror and I
go, maybe I'm dreaming. MaybeI'm a week dreaming. I'm asleep with
Pete McKenzie. I'm still vothering Beforeevery show the Ford, I'm feel dirty
and unsatisfied and Kenny Young, yeah'sget crazy. In other words, I'm

(00:25):

heavy, get to it. Here'sto the future. Will you see lex
Oh see, it feels like aMonday to a guy like me. Five
point thirty one on this Tuesday,the final day of April twenty twenty four,
in the year of our Lord SkinnyYoung. What's happening? Because I

(00:46):
really don't care. I just needto know. Well, I'll tell you
what you need to know as theshow progresses. Here that gentleman over there
is mister Pete McKenzie. Hello.I think this is just felt like we
could have all the things. Youknow. People say, oh, is
effortless working with him? Well,I think it's effortless working with you.
Effort We make it so easy together, make it so easy. Yeah,

(01:08):
so easy, heatherfore it has beenbattling some unforeseen circumstance on ninety three North.
So easy. She's running a coupleof minutes behind today, But if
she were here, I'd introduce herlike THISBEI baby. Nothing like talking birds

(01:30):
to kick off it Tuesday, amI right, I'll tell you. I'm
gonna tell you what when that threepoint fifteen alarm rattled off this morning?
You know, I had the longweekend. I just got back from Myrtle
Beach visiting my niece and my newgreat nephew, which I'll tell you about
a little bit later on today.But this morning, when that alarm rattled
off, I couldn't get over howloud it was outside, Like the birds

(01:53):
were up way before. Oh yeah, we're getting sunrises and the later sunsets.
Yeah, nice for twilight golf.You know why the birds are so
loud so early in the morning likethat, because they got to keep warm,
and by doing that, it warmsthem up. When temperature get chilly,
the birds get loud and get chirpyso they can get the blood flowing,

(02:16):
which warms them up. Right.It makes us feel good, makes
us as humans feel good here inthe chirping bird. I don't know how
good I felt with the alarm goingoff that early. But you know what
Chuck told us yesterday was that Chucktold us that. By the way,
Chuck filled in for Kenny yesterday,in case you missed that, Chuck said,
he never sets his alarm. Whathe never sets an alarm? Get

(02:38):
out of here? Yeah, hegoes, Why do I have to set
an alarm? I don't have towork till two in the afternoons. Well
yeah, yeah, but I meanyesterday he would have had to him yesterday
he has to set an alarm,But he does have to set an alarm
when he has to get up anddo the show. I always want to
ask when he fills in for me, I always want to ask him if
he does what I do. WhereI set multiple alarms. There's a three
fifteen, there's a three twenty,there's a three thirty just in case you

(03:00):
know my sleepy ass, you know, shuts off the alarm instead of the
snooze on my phone. So that'swhy I set up like three alarms,
right, I mean, like mostpeople, we have to get up at
a certain time. Yeah, Imean we all hit our marks, right,
I mean, there's no sleeping in. No, there's no by the
time you're you know, you're inyour car, it has to be this
time, by the time you passthis gas station, it's got to be
that time. I know what it'slike. Yeah, we do the same

(03:23):
thing. Yeah, you hit thatmarker with the digital signboard on the mass
Pike and you're like, all right, right, I know I'm less than
fifteen minutes from this point to gethere. Yeah, and so what Heather
ran into is not uncommon for uson the pike. Yeah. I'm sure
it was a construction delay of somekind. Possibly an accident, could have
been I don't know, But wedeal with it every it's every morning,
in the middle of the night.Yeah, they're working on the road site.

(03:46):
You know. I had a dealwith a I had a deal with
a lead footed flat what do youcall them, flatbed truck, flatbed trailer?
Yeah, Jesus, Okay, see, I'll get the brain going.
Yeah, right by the b uthours there. You know the road construction
before Fenway, they make your veerover to one lane or the other.
Today it was get over all theway to the right, So I knew

(04:06):
that was coming. And then Isaw the digital arrow and I started to
make my way over. Well herecomes this flatbed. I mean, he's
flying and there's two cars in frontof me, and he just about locked
him up on the car like hewas about to take out this car.
But I had been trying to getover and he just wouldn't let me over,

(04:27):
so that I had about lock upmy brakes to let him pass so
that I could zipper in, youknow what I mean. And it was
well before the sign here. It'sunusual for the eighteen wheelers. There's usually
pretty well, it wasn't an eighteenwheeler, but it was a big flatbed
like one that could haul an eighteenwheelers okay, I mean yeah, or
a bigger truck or tow truck anyway. But yeah, this guy was all

(04:48):
over the place like he's either reallylate to pick somebody up or he's just
getting done and wants to get thehell out of there. But yeah,

Well, well, hopefully we'll getback up there. Man. I
had a couple of monsoon moments drivingto get to the pike this morning.
I don't know about you. Yeah, yeah, there were some showers going

(05:57):

You had a little downpour, Yeah, a little downpour, but it
should be it should be lightning upanyway. It was lightning up by the
time I got to the city anyway. So we got that going for us,
which is nice, and we gota lot of show to go.

It's Boston's only classic rock morning show. Five forty one, fitty out of
doors, Getty young Pete McKenzie,welcome, Heather Forward, thank you,
into the fold, into the fray. What did you tell me just buzz
the tower here that we weren't abus to an airplane. When I was
pulling around off of sixteen, there'sa lightning right behind you, Pete.

(07:04):
Oh yeah. When I was pullingaround, I looked up and I was
like, there is no way I'mseeing what I'm seeing. And it was
a passenger plane obviously landing at Logan, but way lower. I've ever seen
a plane near our building. Yeah, and you know, I don't have
real positive feelings about planes and buildings, so but I mean, honestly,

(07:24):
I feel like every time the lightningwept, everybody on the expressway just stopped
at the split. We were justat a stop. We were all just
sitting there. Phantom traffic or justease. I think it was just water,
honestly, the build up of waterand lightning and cars and a little
more than they expected. I thinkthe weather people, I mean, they
did call for some showers, butI hadn't heard anything about some thunderstorms and

(07:46):
heavy rains. Oh there's the dopplerright now. Air and lightning, I
swear from like, I mean,by the time my alarm went off at
two thirty, there was already lightningby my house. Wow. Thankfully I
have dogs that aren't scared of things. Yeah they don't their thunderbuddy jackets.
No, but but I've seen those. Oh yeah, yeah, No,
it was it was intense. Yeah, like the whole way in you didn't

(08:07):
have any lightning. I didn't haveany lightning driving in No, well from
the west from Framingham had showers,that was about it. And Kenny said
he had a downpour. So yeah, it was just a bit of a
surprise, uh for the commuters thismorning on that regard, so April showers.
Yeah, well glad you're here safeand something. Yeah, really just

(08:28):
turned around when I got to thecelshop plaza, I'm going home. I'm
just gonna do a UI. I'mdone because people get shot right there,
right at the split. So Iwas like, I don't want to be
sitting now, right, That's theonly thing that goes through my brain.
Now was as like, you wantto be targeted. I don't want to
be targeted by Aaron bullets. AsI'm driving through there and stopped. Yeah,

(08:50):
oh well, we're glad you herebecause you have some work to do
at eight forty this morning. Anyway, I mean, aside from headlines,
you're going to be putting our listenersto the test in the classic rock Clash.
I understand. We have a newEagle's Greatest Hits box set. Yeah,
it's a new one. There's afew, right, there's a few,
but this one's called Take It tothe Limit. It's a three disk
set all kinds of rarities and livestuff and the studio leftovers and outtakes and

(09:16):
of course the hits from their fiftyplus year career. So yes, Heather
will be your quiz master at eightforty in our Classic Rock Clash to test
your classic rectory. See if youcan graduate from the College of Classic Rock
Knowledge. Be a whole commencement ceremonyand all that from the Planet Fitness,
WCLX Studios, Horizon Smile Now nowthanks for making us part of your morning
headlines with Heather. Great story onone point seven WCLX boxet. There's a

(09:43):
running joke in my family, theone you know that I grew up in.
Do you remember the Onion? Imean, is there still the Onion
where it was just like headlines.Yeah, it was just they actually had
a newspaper for a while. Itwas just headlines but no story, and
the headlines were the funny part,right. So one of the things that
made us all laugh real hard wasa headline and all it said was owls
are a holes and it said theactual word. And the part that made

(10:05):
it funny was no one actually thinksthat about owls. I mean, owls
are awesome, but owls are aholes, was the headline. So every
Father's Day and Birthday and sometimes Christmas, but not as much, I get
my father an owl. It's eithera candle that's shape like an owl,
or it's a little figurine, orit's a card that has owls on it.

(10:26):
And the joke is, I justgave you a bunch of a holes,
right, And I filled my father'shouse with a holes. And it's
been going on for forever, right, And so I see this headline and
I'm like, this has got tobe out of the onion. And it
says they shoot owls in California,don't they? And no, they really
are going to shoot owls in CalfornOop. It's an owl that's not supposed

(10:52):
to be there. So this isthe Pacific Northwest. There's the spotted owl
is like was the thing, butit's like rare and it's fragile, and
it's been pushed out by another owl, a barred owl. And apparently they're
just taking over not a barn owl, a r R ed And maybe I'm
saying it wrong because I've been knownto do that over time, but no

(11:13):
barn owl, so they're going tokill thousands of them. Wow, owls
interesting how certain owls have certain rights. Well, the other thing is,
I mean owls are like elusive,so like, what are owl hunters like?
And I've never like my husband huntslike he's gonna like he goes all
the time. You're probably gonna haveto research the barn owl habits, right,

(11:37):
and the secret about it. I'mgonna be doing this at night,
and you're doing it with night vision. Yeah. I was gonna say,
you're gonna need some night vision gogglesfor short at night. You better you
silencers. You're gonna wake up thewhole neighborhood. Your gunshots exactly or a
gun that sounds like who It justsounds like it's part of the game.
I know. I've never heard ofthem doing that. Yeah with owls.

(11:58):
Okay, Pete, you dress upin a giant mouse cost them and I'll
get my night vision goggles in therifle. I just I thought it was
fake. Now I've got to sendthis to my father and be like,
look look what they're doing to thea holes in California. They're killing them.
The struggle is real. The struggleis the big story though for most
people, because no one really cares. I guess about the calling of owls?

(12:20):
Is Karen Reid? Did I learnmore since yesterday? No? Do
I want to learn more? Butit is now one of the top trending
stories on Yahoo, which means thenation is involved in this. Knew that
was coming. Oh my gosh,Kenny City was on an air Where were
you were you in the airport.Yeah, we were leaving Friday afternoon to

(12:41):
fly down to Myrtle Beach. We'rewaiting, you know, when you get
in the queue to get in yourzone to board the plane. Yeah.
And I look over and it wasthe two lanes were filtering or zipping together.
This woman had a T shirt onit said free Karen ree She's taking
its whole plane. Wow. Ijust I mean, we were talking off

(13:05):
air, and there's certain things abouttext messages, and I seem to have
absorbed some of that information because thatstuck out to me about different police officers
sending different text message, one ofthem about I hope she kills herself and
you know this that and the otherand about dead bodies and property values and
but other than that, I didn'tpay attention. Did anything important happen yesterday?

(13:30):
Opening statements? Yeah, a coupleof testament testimonies, right three.
I think when his brother went onthe stand, things that we expected to
have, like no big shockers,I mean, yeah, I mean we'll
take it as it comes. Yeah, there the information trickles in, you
know, is the information to tricklein? I feel like day in the
day, I think, I mean, I didn't know about that guy,

(13:52):
the officer confiscating the phone when heshouldn't have so much. Yes, and
they're killing owls in California. Yes, that to me is stunning. Z
Lex weather cloudy with scattered showers.Highs in the lower fifties, a passing
morning shower, otherwise cool with cloudsbreaking for some sun tomorrowhis again though in
the lower fifties, fifty degrees inBoston. I'm heather Ford on one hundred

(14:16):

to Rattle the Cage, six fourteen. On this Tuesday morning, temperatures dropped
to look at that forty nine.It was fifty the last time we talked,
Katie Young, Pete McKenzie, heatherFord and I told you so,
I told you so team Yeah.Last Friday, before I went off on

(14:37):
my long weekend, I said,Pete, I'm not going to take part
in your sports parlay bet on Saturday. And I said, watch what will
happen? You'll hit it? Well, you know what's funny about We talked
about it yesterday, Kenny. Iactually laid two different parlays. What Heather
told me? Yeah, I didone on Wednesday and then I did it
again Friday because I forgot I didit on Wednesday. Daisy tell oops oops

(15:01):

see what did I? What didI tell you? Pete? Now?
Yes, good, Yes, it'sgood for you. I have a little
play money. You know that's housemoney, can you? Yeah? I
know, I know. So thenext I'll do this. The next bet

(15:24):
we put in is a group.It'll be on me ten bucks each,
thirty dollars. Yeah, I liketo pass along. No win, We're
going to do it. We doit. You get in it. That's
what you feel like. You havesomething you don't like, get right?
No, not only because I can'tget involved in any bets where the ReBs
are in it anymore. I mean, they're just I mean because you're going
to bet against them if you wantto win, and I can't bet against

(15:48):
them. Yeah, I don't blameme. I don't bet against my teams
either ever. Yeah, and ifI want your parlays to work, I
have to not participate in them.Hey, hopefully we're going to be hearing
this a lot tonight. Yes,Bruins have a chance to advance. Send
the leaves home. Eh, yougo with Swaying tonight, Right, you

(16:08):
go. You gotta go with Swaying. That has got to be the talk.
It was the talk. It's gotto be in the airport terminal.
It was the talk on the plane. Once the plane landed yesterday, all
I could hear was people muttering,well, you gotta go with Swayming.
You got to go with Swaying.And then as the argument, you don't
want to run this guy into theground. Well it's been a few days.

(16:29):
I think he's got enough rest.Yeah, get in there, close
it out tonight, closet. ThenI would start all Mark in game one.
All Mark's got a good he's gota good mark against Florida. So
now with the Panthers advancing, thatwould be our next opponent should the Bruins
advance past the Leaf tonight. Sohopefully they do wrap it up at the
Gaden tonight, because you don't wantto go back up to Toronto and extend

(16:49):
this thing any more than it needsto be. Advance on home, right,
Austin Matthews, Bertuzzi, great players, but I don't want to see
you in your home ice again.All right, So at seven o'clock tonight,
Red Sox kicking off a new seriestonight too against the Giants. They're
at home and Fenway. I'd loveto see the numbers tomorrow morning for the

(17:11):
Bruins' possible elimination game versus the RedSox Giants, because you know they bump
that Tonessen plus. So that'll beon the second one right. Oh,
Actually, now the Bruins will benationally televised, won't it. I think
it might be on ESPN. Idon't know, you be honest about it.
To look, I think that mightbe nationally televised. As a matter
of fact. To get into that, well, since we were talking about

(17:32):
money, remember we got a lotof it to throw around here, thousand
dollars bribe in effect, coming upat nine to ten this morning, your
first thirteen opportunities to get paid tolisten to all this great music and our
occasional witty banter when we can squeezeit out of a stone, but listen.
Yeah, thirteen opportunities grab a grandbecome a thousand dayre with a thousand
dollars come up at nine ten.Scattered showers on and off throughout the day,

(17:52):
only getting into the low fifties.Might have a shower or two later
this evening into tomorrow. Where's thatI am of sunshine? When we welcome
the month of May into the world, hopefully we'll see what happens. It's
Kenny Young, Pete Mackenzie, heatherFord and uh, you know, I
guess when you're a kid, youset goals for yourself sometimes. And then
there's this guy. Yeah, thisguy probably didn't do much thinking about this

(18:15):
at all. So picture uh,sort of a nacho libre, you know
kind of guy. So he's wearinga mask, and he's wearing you know,
like what looks like a wrestling suit. So he holds school wrestling suit
and so on. So yeah,exactly. So on social media he throws
out the fact that he's going toeat a jumbo jar of cheeseballs, like
the wholesale Club done that. We'vehad that challenge before. Have you finished?

(18:40):
I mean no, no, itwas William who said he was like,
I could do that. Usually wejust had him that giant container in
about four days later. It's scotteokay, all right, Like like I
if I was to do something likethat, it would it would have to
cheeseballs would not be it. No, no, But there are people like
my husband and my oldest Yeah,they can't get an enough of them,

(19:00):
and they feel so artificial to me, like theballs covered in cheese powder.
But they love them, love them. Yeah, what do they wash them
down? It is it a mountain, dude, cheeseballs flaming hot mountain dew.
So this guy grabs the attention.You know, they have a gathering
in Manhattan. In Manhattan, Ithink it's Union Square Park. Does it

(19:22):
sounds familiar? Guess many people showup for this, right right, Well,
it's good to see people gathering forsome fun. Yeah, change right.
So this guy here, Yeah,this guy finishes this jar of this
jumbo jar of cheese balls. Andhe's by the way, he's wearing this
mask, heather, and he's gotcheese dust all over the me so,

(19:42):
you know, to the crowds tolight he completes his task. Listen to
the crop. Yeah, I'm gonnathrow up. This guy wanted to shake
his cheese hand. Yes, yeah, I'm only twenty two, but when

(20:06):
I can, Yeah, I'm gonnago home and up throw up. Wow,
is gonna run for president? Hegoes, I'm only twenty two,
but yes, yes, I am. I mean did he put on a
Facebook post? Because I mean,how does how is there that many people

(20:26):
so invested in this thing? Hadto be social media? You know how
it works. Yeah, or acollege campus if he's twenty two. Yeah,
I might have gone around like,hey, we're going to do this
instead of that, and then hejust ate cheese balls. Man, I
don't know if there's anything I couldeat in a three gallon sitting of that
magnitude. No, I mean,you know I think things that I like,
I wouldn't be able to eat them. Many pretzels, there's no way

(20:48):
I love it. Are heavier thanheavy, too hard to chew up and
get down. Yeah dry, Yeah. Can I just tell you real quick,
one of the worst things I've everseen on the internet is a woman
who made mac and cheese, meltingthose cheese oh with other ingredients. I
was like, please tell me youhave other things in your life besides the
knowledge like and then she like blended. It was just the most disgusting thing
I'd ever seen. That doesn't soundappetizing at all, not one bit.

(21:12):
Little puky chee. Oh now thesepretzels that make it make darsty one hundred
point seven w u Zeelix, Boston'sonly classic rock morning show. Here six
forty one clouds are breaking up alittle bit, but hey, maybe another
chance at a shower this afternoon intothis evening here, Ketty Young, Pete
McKenzie, heather Ford. I didn'tleave them out on purpose when I just

(21:34):
did a little sport something something alittle while ago mentioned the Bruins close out
game tonight and the Socks kicking offa new series. Only did that because
they're on at the exact same time. But Boston Celtics last night another impressive
win on the road down in Miamito take the three games to one series
lead one O two eighty eight lastnight. But the big talk of the

(21:56):
game was, uh, Porzingis withthat injury. It was so much speculation.
Was it is calf again? Wasit his achilles? Did something pop
in his knee? One thing's forsure. As soon as it happened on
the non contact injury, threw hishand in the air to inform the bench,
I get to get the hell offthe court right now, so you're
gonna need to replace me. Itlooked bad. It looked bad, but

(22:18):
said it wasn't an achilles. There'ssame injury that he might have had before.
But it could be something totally brandnew, is what I'm thinking.
Oh, just something really fun that'sgonna make us really nervous for the rest
of the playoffs. Such a criticalcomponent of that. Yeah, I don't
know if you caught Barkley after thegame. Charles Barkley after the game talking
about mister Porzingis. He is areally huge part of the offense and defense.

(22:41):
I just hope he's all right,because listen, let's be honest.
If there something's are healthy, they'regonna win a championship. In my opinion,
they got everything you need offense,defense, good solid role players,
yeah, yeah, I think,and no one's disputing that. But I
will tell you that when my SpiritAirlines plane landed at Logan yesterday, the

(23:04):
flight crew was a Miami based flightcrew, and the guy on the intercom
made sure to let a Boston boundplane know that the Miami Heat were gonna
win last night. And as Iwalked off, the planet went Celtics,
Celtics, and he just kind oflooked at me, as you know,
I'm sorry you don't have your butler. I'm sorry that we went down to

(23:27):
your building and took two games.Sorry, not sorry, But Celtics looked
to close out their series tomorrow nightat seven thirty against the Heat, and
by all accounts, coming back home, I think they got a good chance
to do. Yeah, I getit wrapped up in five and then take
on the winner of that Cavs Magicseries. There you go. You're being
a good team, though, Imean, you know, without Butler they're

(23:48):
not as good. They got theirwell coached everybody knows Spolster's a great coach
exactly, but not enough talent.And one side note, as a lifelong
Boston Celtics fan, it was niceto see the Lakers get eliminated. Yeah,
Lakers are out swept. They're done. I'll tell you what's not done
this program. We got a lotmore show to go here and keep in

(24:11):
mind eight forty Classic Rock Clash.We're going to be taking it to the
trivia limits for your chance to scorea new box set from the Eagles.

us part of your morning lines,Heather, great story, Thank god one

(24:37):
seven WCLX boss set. I meanwe're constantly talking about people winning big lotto
jackpots. Yes, are they worthy? Exactly? We not have this conversation
all the time. This is whatI thought too, Heather thot what this
is a gem of a story.This is it. This is what we
were asking for. So now anybodyit is. It is so now in

(25:00):
anybody can win because it's fulfilled itspurpose of giving to the person in need
who obviously so anyway, the headlineon NBC Boston winner of one point three
billion dollar powerball jackpot is an immigrantfrom Laos who has cancer, who just
went through his last chemo treatment anddecided to share his billion dollar whatever with

(25:22):
a friend in another state from Wisconsin. Hello, I I was just so
and he's just so happy, andit's just it was wonderful. I won.
And then I'm thinking, oh,I'm happy for a farm, my
family, they will have a goodlife. We want a lot, we
want a jackpot. Yeah, fortysix years old, Portland. He go

(25:45):
his name's Chang. I think it'ssafe on but he goes by Charlie and
just just so super excited. Ijust couldn't even believe, and chose to
share with a friend A fifty five. These are people who will be able
to live long enough to spend theirmoney. That's the other thing, right,
You don't want it to be likesomeone who has you know, it
was one of those billion dollar jackpotsthat went to somebody that you can you

(26:08):
can embrace. Yeah, you canembrace this and you're happy for legitimately happy
and he's out there. I feelone thing I feel bad about is he's
out there smiling. Everybody knows whohe is now, like he's just going
to be he's going to be hitup. But he says he could find
a good doctor now, like hecan find it sure the best available,
right, because he did go throughhis last chemo treatment. Yeah. And

(26:30):
then this is a piece where he'she's telling he's informing the friend, Hey,
hey he won. Yeah, whereyou going? What are you doing
now? I'm driving to work andI thought you don't have to go work.
No, I'm all the bad owningkensa. So I don't think how
am I going to have time tospend all of his money? Yeah,

(26:52):
his family story, It's I justit was what you were looking for.
It was now. Of course thereare gonna be people listening right now who
are agitated by the word immigrant.And I hate to tell you, just
be happy for this dude, Like, it's just this is a this is
a good guy. This is agood story. He's sharing with friends and
they bought a ticket. So justlike any of us, just like anybody

(27:14):
else, the Karen read case isgoing on. Kenny, while traveling on
Spirit Airlines, managed to see awoman hop on an airplane to go to
Myrtle Beach who had a is itfree Karen Readers Karen t shirt on.
It's on Yahoo. It's it's oneof their national stories, you know,
and they call it a Boston areaBoston area woman on trial for murdering ex

(27:34):
boyfriend police officer. Would they xor were they presently? I don't even
know everything that came out yesterday.It just seems like there's so much wrong
on both sides. Oh, noneof it seems great. Nothing is great
on either side. And someone's deceased. That's the worst part. I feel
like that's just completely gone from thestory. Everything's about the people who did
things wrong against her, and herpossibly and her being tried for the murder,

(27:59):
but nothing about the person who's deceased, right, right, So anyway,
the headline on CVB was witness testimonycontinues in Karen Reid murder trial after
opening statements that I have not evenwatched. That's not part of the headline.
But I still I'm trying to care. I know it's a big story.
I say it every day. Ifeel like, little by little I'm

(28:21):
getting things. But I know shepleaded not guilty to second degree murder.
Yeah. I mean, as longas as long as you cover it,
you're gonna be getting trickled information.At least you know how old she is
Karen Reid? What is she fortyseven? Forty three? Yes? Really
forty three. Okay, thank you. Wow, look at you now you

(28:41):
should go play power ball. Wellyou know I've been known to be able
to guess people's age within a year. Wow, good for you. That's
like a that's one of those circusthings slash fair things, weight and usually
park. Yes, you should dothat. Xeelex. Weather cloudy with scattered
showers, highs in the lower fifties. There are some serious ass lightning and
thunderstorms. I don't know if anyof you went through those, but it

(29:02):
was crazy land a passing morning shower. Otherwise cool with clouds breaking for some
sun Tomorrow, hies again in thelower fifties, fifty degrees In Boston.

You lose a Thanks bec seven thirtynine. Here in this Tuesday morning man,
it is a tale of two cities. Weatherwise, as we look to
our north out of headquarters here,it looks like it's trying to lighten up,

(32:30):
trying to clear up a little bit. And then you look to your
south and it is the Phantom Menaceto the south, darkening clowns, more
showers expected, maybe some more enlightening. One thing's for sure, it's Kenny
young people and Kenzie Heather Forward We'vebeen dealing with some sort of power surges
power outages here in the building.Yeah. I thought somebody might have got
an electrocue to doing some work outthere. Yeah. Everything just went boo

(32:51):
yeah and then down the back upquickly. Yeah, a couple of glitches.
I mean, the radio station itselfis on generators. But I know
when the building loses power it goesdown to like emergency lighting. But everything
came back on. We didn't seethe emergency lighting, so I don't know
what it was. Maybe somebody wasjust you know, with the large extension
cords, just unplugging it, pluggingit back in. So you're saying kiss

(33:14):
came back on. Maybe maybe,But listener, I hopefully you didn't have
your your programming disrupted or interrupted.But it seemed like we stayed on.
We were rocking and rolling. Uh. And I was rocking and rolling this
weekend. I played hooky yesterday.Let's get into it. So what's going
on with Boston's only classic rock morningshow on one point seven WZ lex Man,

(33:37):
I'll tell you what we Uh.We boarded Spirit Airlines for the first
time. I've never been on Spiritbargain basement, which I speak highly of.
Yeah, I know a lot ofpeople have problems with it. I
take short flights. I've had noproblems with Spirit. Okay, okay,
I was right now. But yeah, I was leary, but because we

(33:58):
were just going for Friday to Mondaydown to North Myrtle Beach, where my
niece is relocated. She's a newmom, just had our great nephew four
months ago, so we're meeting himfor the first time. That was the
point of the trip to see hernew digs a great uncle three times open.
What's his name, let's go boYoung, oh Bau. He's destined

(34:22):
to be a left fielder. He'san athlete with that name, right bow
Young. Uh So, yeah,we left Friday, and I got to
tell you, I was leary aboutthe Spirit because I'd never flown him before,
and I was in the tight wewere in, like row thirty in
the back. I was in thetightest airplane seat I've ever sat it in
my life, and I don't cryabout it often. But I'm six four,

(34:44):
all right. I'm not the largegirth wise, but I'm six four,
So I had to sit with mylegs folded, kind of like when
I'm in the Grand stands at Fenway, That's what it reminded me. And
then on top of it, Ihad a woman in front of me with
the long flowing hair that she keptthrowing over the seat, so I had
to force one of my legs tothe aisle and the hair kept falling on
my legs. So that was awhole thing. But like you said,

(35:07):
Pete, thankfully the short flight itwas what an hour and forty hour and
forty five minutes. It sounds liketorture, though I know I had the
grin and Barrett, but I wasa little tired, you know, from
being up early Friday, no nap, so we got through that. But
yes, loved seeing the great nephew. And my niece's development is in this
like they call it, like theBarefoot Resort or whatever. So her new

(35:30):
development is townhouses, but they're detachedtownhouses and they're all painted different colors or
sighted different colors, so they looklike beach cottages. Yeah, and they're
all bright colors and stuff. Soshe's in a great two bedroom. And
then you know, if you knowanything about Myrtle Beach, it's the golf
capital of the world. You can'tthrow a rock and not hit a sign

(35:50):
for a golf course or mini dolleverywhere golf. We did that every night,
mini golf, a different one everynight. You never seen more on
that route seventeen on the way backto the I think we counted a dozen
in less than five miles. They'resuper fun. How do they all stay
in business as mini golf places?Well, I mean it's a vacation land.
Yeah, yeah, I mean I'donly driven through Myrtle Beach and we

(36:12):
had stayed somewhere further down south fromwhere we were this weekend, but she
took us to this awesome place onSaturday. One of the largest breweries I've
ever been to as far as likegame outdoor games and things going on,
very family and dog friendly. Andit was right on the just off the
inner coastal there. It's called theCrooked Hammock, a Crooked Hammock, and

(36:35):
it was a little like island gazebo, and I said, I want to
go sit out there. It's onthe water. The bar had swings that
you sat in around that. Butwe were at a high tops and dogs
though, yeah, a lot soon the land side. There's certain sections
if you didn't want to be withthe kids and the dogs and the corn
hole, and they had a trampolinepark for kids. They're all at the

(36:57):
brewery it. You know, youcould go out to the main bar area
like where we were, or youcould sit in the dining room. But
place was packed. It was jamming, but we had no problem just sliding
in, grabbing a table and food. Was unbelievable. I can't believe.
There wasn't a point, Kenny whereyou didn't break away, you know,
being a golfer. Just yeah,great to see her, dude. I

(37:19):
really couldn't. I really came allthis way to see her and my new
great nephew. It was killing menot to, but I couldn't, you
know what I mean, such ashort take that new great nephew for a
riding a golf cart. Yeah youknow they make those now, right,
like the strollers that you put thebaby in and the golf club sit right
on the side. Yeah, you'renad so that they could take their very

(37:39):
hopefully very quiet child course outside fallasleep in the fresh air. Well,
you just play a quiet game ofgolf. Nice four and a half hour
break for mom, right, Yeah, Well, now that she's down there,
she says she may want to pickup golf and I was like,
that might be perfect for her,right, like throw on your baby Bjorn
and have that it. Yeah.So that was Saturday Sunday. By the

(38:00):
way, this time of year downthere, mid seventies, just perfect,
perfect weather we had down there.Went to the beach yesterday a Sunday,
rather not crowded. We could spreadout, the baby had his little tent
going on. It was just great. It was great. It was hard
to come back yesterday. But aswe boarded the flight home, the wife
said, I got a surprise foryou. I bid on upgrading our seats.

(38:22):
Like what do you mean you bidon new seats for the flight home?
And again an hour and forty minuteshas different levels they do. I
didn't know that. So she hadgotten this email from them the night before
when we checked in, and itsaid, yeah, tell us what you're
willing to pay to sit in theexit row. So she looked at what
it was if we just bought those, and it was like thirty three bucks
more a ticket, so she bidthirty five score. I felt like I

(38:45):
was sitting in first class on theway home. So spirit you totally redeemed
yourself. So she got for thirtyfive dollars right, five extra. So
yeah, we sat in the exitrow and got to stretch out. But
one of our seat mates on theother side of my wife was this very
nice fella goes by the name ofJeff. Longtime w ZLX listener, recognized
me before I all right, Joh, probably say it listen every morning,

(39:10):
love you guys. Oh probably sawus in social Maybe he's from bill Rica
and he was down there. Hesaid he's been going down to Myrtle for
almost thirty years. He and hiscrew of six guys and they were kind
of spread out amongst the plane.But Wick a nice guy. I got
to talking with him because I wantedto take notes. I'm like, where'd
you guys play? What'd you do? So well, one of his buddies
did one of these package setups,so they do all they book all year

(39:32):
rounds of golf for you. Ithink he said they played four or five
times while they were down there,at different places, and I noted down
all of them, right, andthen I told us where he stayed.
So that was a whole package,and so they just had it. They
had to add in their flights intheir rental car. But yeah, it
was it was a nice setup there. I wonder if their golf packages included
ivs, because that's usually what ittakes to be able to play days in

(39:52):
a row, poker, staying uptill two am, getting up for an
eight o'clock late nights at the tikibar. The ivy bags, yeah,
he says. But you know itwas so nice because you just quarter mile
down the road there was a dunks, he said, and so every morning
one of the six would wake upfirst and go down and get the box
of Joe to come back and youknow, properly feeding water. But yeah,

(40:14):
it was nice chatting with him,and uh he said to say hello
to you too, And it wasjust a nice experience as we were exchanging
stories and pleasantries about the golf courses. So he kind of gave me a
few dues and don'ts, and Isaid to him, yeah, did you
notice how many many golf places areare down here? I go. They're
like our dunkin donuts back home.So it was a good time, man.
But yeah, so hopefully you uhyou guys survived okay without me yesterday.

(40:37):
Well it's good to hear you gotyou got refreshed, Kenny, you
got some color. Yeah, hopefullythat can stick around for a little bit
here. Tom Petty's going to stickaround with us as ZLX from a Planet
Fitness w CLX Studios. Now,thanks for making us part of your morning
goodliness. Great story, one wCLX bosses. When I saw the story

(41:00):
about Giselle bunch In this Morning,I immediately thought of Princess Diana. It's
just where my brain goes. Prettylady being chased by paparazzi and feeling scared,
except in this case, Giselle wasdriving. Did you see the video?
I didn't. So the headline onBZ this Morning, Surfside Mayor,
Florida Police chiefs says Giselle bunch In'straffic stop could have been handled differently.

(41:23):
Uh you know, we're not gonnaplay too much, but mostly because there
isn't too too much. But she'sin tears and she was pulled over for
speeding, but she was speeding becauseshe was trying to get away from people
who were chasing her. So Imean, what do you yeah, what
do you do you know? Sohere she is being talked to it like

(41:45):
a like a police camera, abody can starting to say, I understand
who you are and i'll give youThere's nothing I can do about that.
Okay. One the final and wepulled the lamby beach because it was She
goes, why can't you stop him? And then he's saying, well,
you have to file with another policeforce. It was in another town when
it started, and I can't doanything about that. Yeah, he didn't

(42:07):
sound very helpful. Well here's whereshe yeah, okay, so I'm sorry,
So there's nothing I can do aboutthat. But what do you mean?
Why are you crying? He goes, why are you crying? And

(42:30):
she goes because it's hard to hear. He goes, why are you crying?
And she goes, I'm just sotired. Everywhere I go. I
have these f and GUIDs after me. Nothing protects me. I can't do
nothing. I just want to livemy life. Now. She's just in
a jeep. She's just in acar. You know, it's not being
driven anywhere. And that's because shejust she said, she just wants to
live her life. You's have tooperate and out in public like that,
you know, you file. Sheprobably should have bodyguards or should probably travel

(42:52):
with somebody. No, I know, probably dropping kids off at school.
But the other thing is like she'snot doing anything for work at this point,
she's just driving around her taent Liketo me, there should be some
sort of you want to take pictureswhen people get out of their cars and
when they're walking around doing things.I mean, it's still invasive, but
that's your deal. But no chasing. Haven't we learned from nineteen ninety seven.

(43:16):
No chasing people, right, becausethat turns into high speed and it
turns into dangerous danger for the personyou're chasing and danger for the people on
the roads around them. Right.So you know they're saying that the police
officer could have done something a littledifferent. I mean in this case,
you know, pull over by pullover, this is just another one for him,
right, But you know he justsomeone's why are you crying? Right?

(43:40):
Well? I mean if I wereher, I would have somebody do
those things for me. And youknow, you're just a high profile person.
You just in your house the wholetime, basically have to No.
I think you should be able todrive around. I think you shouldn't be
chased while you're driving. I justthat's ridiculous. So they should come up
with some rules about no chasing someonewhen they're driving. I mean, I

(44:05):
mean until those rules are changed,That's how I'd operate. Because the photo
for the photographers, they're going togo after. Yeah, but you don't
know the tabloids are going to goafter. But maybe you don't mind staying
in your house all the time.I mean would mean no golf, no
going out and going to the grocerystore, I mean, no doing anything.
It would just why I mean,then you're a prisoner. Well,
you know, initially my thought washave somebody go with you, be there,

(44:27):
somebody you you can afford to hiresomebody to drive you and your kids
and drop them off at school.Yeah, but and that way you have
protection against these idiots thinks you're justliving there and you just want to By
the way, the last time todo that, I know, any last
time anyone told me why are youcrying? And someone was a doctor and
then he had just told me Ihad a brain aneurysm, and I broke

(44:49):
out in the tears and he lookedat me and he was just like lurch
from and he goes, why areyou crying? And I'm thinking myself,
I don't know I didn't know whatwords to say. You know, brain
anurism, right, you're telling me, you know, so have a good
day, one hundred percent healthy.Yeah, Blertz did not have a good
bedside manner. He did not know. But the next doctor I went to

(45:10):
said, no, you do nothave that, and so I cried then
too. But that doctor didn't sayto me, why are you crying?
Which was a which was a morerelief. Yeah, by the way,
x lex weather cloudy with scattered showers, highs in the lower fifties, a
passing morning shower. Otherwise cool,with clouds breaking for some sun tomorrow.
Hi's again though, in the lowerfifties, fifty degrees in Boston. I'm
heather Ford on a one hundred pointseven double z LX. Let's get a

(45:35):
young Pete McKenzie heather Ford eight twentythree. You ready to throw ten bucks
each on Mike Tyson? No,no, no, I just want him
to win. You want him.But he's an underdog. I know.
So he's almost sixty. Well he'she's almost twice the age of Yeah.
Well he actually is more than twicethe age of Jake Paul. Yeah,

(45:57):
it's a little it's a little Scarac. It is uncomfortable. I know how
awesome Mike Tyson was when he wasin his prime. That's when a little
after that. Yeah, but he'solder, right, Yeah, I've been
watching his training videos. Yeah,I know he's, oh my god,
the purely fast. No, he'straining. He's not getting punched. No,
he's doing it. Yeah, he'sdoing the punching. That's the thing.

(46:17):
That's great. I'm glad he's doingthe punching, but he's not getting
punched, and that's I don't know. So Oscar de la Hoya, who's
highly decorated sixteen year boxing career,eleven titles, he was approached on the
street about this Tyson Paul fight comingJuly the twentieth. I'm gonna pray for

(46:38):
Mike Tyson because I love Mike Tyson. You know, I think j Paul.
Look, he's he's a real fighter, he really is. It's a
dangerous fight. Mike Tyson, becareful, please now last, that's last.
If Mike loses, could this potentiallyruin his reputation. No, Mike
Tyson is cemented legacy forever, evena loss. No, we're not saying

(47:00):
the law that was hypothetically if youknow, if he loses, you're saying
he's going to get away. Staffreywas going to just remember the old Mike,
not ye will be the man foreverbecause he's fighting at sixty. It's
an exhibition. He's not a titlebout. We all know what he did
in the eighties and early nineties.He just destroyed people. Yeah, that's

(47:21):
what could change, is this physicalwell being. That there's a dude in
puns. It looks like Jake Paulis there. Yeah. I don't know
this glass Jel or somebody else,but I saw a meme about it.
I was like, he's actually it'sactually come to fruition that video game.
Yeah, well so Tyson has he'sgiven up sex and he's given up marijuana
and training for this fight. Butis he scared, like like Oscar de

(47:43):
la Hoya said he should be?Is he scared? This is called the
exhibition? But if you look upexhibition, you will not see any of
the law that we're fighting under.This is a fight. Anything I'm afraid
of, I confront it and that'smy personality. Like right now I'm scared
to death, but have to fight. If clofa less nervous I've become because

(48:06):
this reality, and in reality,I'm invincible, so invincible, I'm impregnable.
I love the fact that I amcheering for Didn't you go to jail
for rape? Did Mike Tyson neverdo jail? He did jail time,
And I'm still cheering. What doesthis say about me? I'm still cheering
for him over Jake Paul. Ohyeah, I mean, but it's just

(48:28):
Jake Paul's sanction fight eight rounds twominutes each. Normally it's twelve rounds three
minutes each. And Mike Tyson willbe paid and he's sixty twenty million dollars.
Is this a pay per view oris it Netflix? Yeah? On
Netflix? Boom, Yeah, Iknow, you know, I mean maybe
at last ninety seconds like Tyson's oldfights, his old fights. Yeah,

(48:50):
I remember back in the day whenhe was in his prime. My buddies
would all say, hey, everyone, come over and throw like, you
know, ten fifteen bucks into thepat the hat and we'll we'll get the
paper of Tyson. And they wereover in ninety seconds or less. You're
like, what the hell I justpaid for? I'll tell you I paid
one time I paid for a fightto watch Mike Tyson and it was Buster
Douglas. Oh okay, and wewere in Oklahoma. Nobody was there but

(49:14):
me. I just put it onin my you know, in my house,
and I was just electrified, stunned. It was just unbelievable that he
lost because he was he was likean armored vehicle. Seemed like a fix.
I don't know. Maybe I meanbecause Buster Douglas looked kind of soft
to me, yep, when hestepped in the ring. Maybe I mean,

(49:37):
you know, I'm always leary ofthese exhibitions. Other say the fix
was in because I'm the one usuallycrying about fixing. But boxing, everybody
knows that that's usually where it happens. Remember the other The other weird thing
that's happened to me in my lifeis that one of my favorite people I've
ever met is a convicted Wasn't hea convicted murder? Don King? Remember?
Don King was going through the gameand I ran out, and I'm

(49:59):
like, Don King, wouldn't waitto take a picture with him to show
my father, even though Don Kick'sdangerous. But he did invite me into
his limo. He was wearing abedazzled denim jackets, right, I didn't
he swooned you. He did.I said, I can't go with you,
Don King, I have a show. Yeah, but it was really
nice meeting you. I mean Ihave an s eating grin on my face

(50:20):
from that picture, Like I'm like, I can't believe I'm standing next to
the Don King. Did Don Kinghave to have the sun roof open for
his hair? He was a realtall man. Well, Mike Tyson does
have a little something in his cornerfor this fight, though. Did you
hear what it was? And thatis I get the twinkle. He's got
a little twink, got the twinkle. I'm just saying, all right,
zear old twinkle. He's got thetwinkle. I'll put a sprinkle on plus

(56:44):
TV, The Greatest roast ever,Tom Brady's Roast Netflix. I guess that's
not free because you have to payfor Netflix, but most people have it
eight eight pm on Sunday. Thegroat the greatest roast of all time is
the acronym. I think we wereall wondering who might be there. We
know Kevin Hart is hosting it,and you know, we knew Edelman and

(57:05):
Gronk would be there, but Iknow Belichick would go there. Yeah,
that was news to me. Imean, you know, there's some they
spend a lot of quality time alonetogether, So hopefully Belichick digs into that
a little bit, you know,that office time between head coach and quarterback.
Maybe we can get some gems outof that. The other thing I
noticed was, and I retweeted atDrake may his first few days as a

(57:27):
Patriot have been consolidated into a videoand put out on Patriots dot Com,
having him whist off on a privatejet to Jillette Stadium and meeting up with
Mayo and seeing his lock craft andcraft and his jersey will be number ten
apparently to just may maybe have somePats fans. All those Matt Jones jersey

(57:51):
buyers just repurpose it. They've alreadydone it. Pictures that just put May
on the back of it. Yeah. And I noticed too, Zekiel Elliott,
who the Patriots picked up last year. Star running back for the Cowboys
for several years, and the Patriotshad him last year. Do you know
he led I didn't know this.He led the New England Patriots in one

(58:12):
offensive category. Would you believe that? Would it be receptions? It would
be the number of receptions? Yes, whoa look at that? Look at
that? Yeah, because Mac Jonescouldn't throw the ball down field, He'd
dink and dunk. Oh, godis jackdowns. He had fifty one catches
and led the team fifty one.That was the most catches by any receiver.

(58:36):
Yes. Wow, hopefully I havea wide receiver this year that has
more last season. Yeah, rightexactly. I saw a pretty interesting stat
too about the draft, and itsaid that from the years twenty fourteen to
twenty twenty three, Bill Belichick hadonly taken I think two wide receivers in
that time frame, or maybe itwas five wide receivers in the first five

(58:58):
or and something like that. GerrodMayo and Elliott Wolf took two wide receivers
in the first five rounds this draftalone, right, Yeah. And that
Javon Baker guy that they took Ithink in the sixth round. He was
the guy. Yes, we playedthe audio yesterday, Kenny, he said,
bring your popcorn. I make peoplein wheelchairs stand. I'm Mary Patriot.

(59:20):
Like of that. You like theenthusiasm. But the other potential steal
in the draft. And again,like I said before last week's draft,
I know nothing about college players.I admit it every year. But the
one ninety third pick in the draft, did you see who else the Pats
picked up? Who wasn't Bazuoka Joe? Oh yeah, Joe Milton the quarterback

(59:42):
they took in the sixth round,not far from Brady's pick at one ninety
nine instantly, But yeah, BazuokaJoe is named. Just google him and
you'll see what some call the strongestarm in college football. He had the
audio of him throwing an orange onehundred yards Oh yeah, yeah, across
the entire field, hit the wall. I missed yesterday. That's our guy
Oranges Bazooka Joe. A lot ofpeople were talking about what a nice pickup

(01:00:07):
that was. Yeah, you know, mister may not pan out right.
I mean, he's he's got theskills, he's got the size, he's
got the mobility, he's got thearm, and he doesn't want to play
tight end right because that was speculatedtoo by some of the analysts though they'd
move him over to another pick.He said, no way, Yeah,
he's not going to do that.Well, one thing is for sure,
all those draft picks picked up alittle coin over the weekend. Pick up

(01:00:29):
some of your own. We justhad our first one thousand dollars bribe of

significant other. A little Nirvana funfact. It was on this date,
this very day, April the thirtieth, nineteen ninety one, Nirvana officially signs
their first recording contractor with the majorlabel, Geffen's DGC label. Uh they
got an estimated two hundred and ninetygrand to sign that deal. Now,

(01:02:00):
when they did finally finish up neverMind and release that just before it really
blew up and became the global phenomenonthat it is and was at the time.
Nirvana very famously took some of thatrecord company signing money and they threw
this huge record release party. Doyou every hear the story about what went
down there? I'm not sure Idid the thing. I have, but

(01:02:22):
I don't remember. I don't knowif this is food fight or something different.
That's exactly what it was. Theystarted a food fight at their own
record label release party and they gotkicked out of their own record release party.
