(01:52):
I'll say, yes, Okay,that's right. It's my favorite. It's
the last of my three favorite months. I love March, April, May.
I just loved change, the changefrom winter to spring. It's it's
the best three months to me.I thought you were going to list the
three months during the year that youlike the most, and that you had
a list of months in order.They weren't connected. Yeah, and I

(02:13):
was. I was waiting. Iwas like, who's got that kind of
time? Yeah? Months of theyear go ok. Yeah. I never
liked the September because it meant goingback to school, it's your birthday,
I know, both of your birthdays. I like the month of September.
Not a big thing. Well,I'm still not a fan of fall because
it leads to winter and even thoughI haven't been a school teacher in years.

(02:37):
You're right, beginning of September makesme feel like I have to go
back to work, even though I'mstill working right, liking in another job
right. Oh and by the way, thanks for the reminder Heather that next
week is a National Teacher Appreciation Yeah, I said week. Yes, you're
gonna have some going for your daughter. Yeah. I'm sure she knows that,
right, I mean, oh,teachers are always notified something like that.

(03:00):
Well, not only will, shemight not know right now because I
don't know if I remembered, butI know that the PTA or PTO or
like the Boosters people would get togetherand bring stuff for you. It'd be
like tables of stuff. Yeah.Yeah, well I'll provide some stuff for
her. Okay, we're going togo see here next week too. That's
all nice. Six one seven ninetythree one double O seven is the number.

(03:21):
Five thirty. Club members always lookforward to you checking in via the
text line WZX and your message.You can send that to seven oh four
to seven oh and the talkback featureKenny, how has that been? Well?
Light lights, very light, It'svery easy to use. What it
was like on Monday but it waswas very quiet yesterday. Sparingly they used
it sparingly yesterday. Right, Yeah, we plucked a couple of talkbacks on

(03:45):
Monday, but let's get a coupleof more today. Yeah, it's the
iHeartRadio app, easy download, freelistener eleven Sean he chimed in because I
actually saw this story right before Ileft yesterday that the the Roger Goodell and
the league, the NFL, areseriously considering moving the Super Bowl to the
Sunday before President's Day, adding agame because they want to add a game,

(04:06):
They want to monetize even further,those greedy bleeps. So but to
our benefit benefit, yes, wewould have that Monday off, as with
the rest of the country. Ithink it's a smart move. You see,
they're going to give the option toplayers to wear those waffle helmets.
I did, and I can't imagineseeing seeing some guys out there with those
giant mushrooms. They look like SuperMario Brothers characters. Yeah, I mean

(04:30):
I understand. I'm of the agewhere you know, I remember Kazoo being
on the Flintstones, the Great Kazoo, The Great Kazoo. Some people may
know that reference, probably not manyI guess, Hey, the dumb dumb
wasn't that him? Yeah? Youknow, you know, the voice was
for that famous person, famous person. I don't know. I don't even

(04:54):
know what you're talking about, thegreat Kazoo from the Flintstones, if I
If memory serves me, it wasHarvey Corman. Really who is it was
on the Carol Burnette Show. Hewas the hilarious one on the Carol Burnett
the tall guy. Give her one. Oh, I thought you like Carrol.
I like Carol Burnett from Annie.Okay, Anne, so you never

(05:16):
watched her show? I didn't know. I know she I know she had
a show. Yeah, that's theextent of it. Yeah, she had
a great cast to Hervey Korman.I'm gonna have to look that up now.
That's interesting. But anyway, thesehelmets, Heather, they're gigantic there
and they want to and they're kindof cushiony. What they look like is
a plastic To me, they looklike a plastic ice tray inverted upside down.

(05:40):
And then okay, so you knowwhat that would look like. That's
what those cushions. They were wearingthem like the practice last season, like
last summer, they tried these thingsout. Yeah, but if they wear
him during games, of course theywould have the logo on them somehow,
because you know, you've got you'vegot these indentations. I don't know how
they would put the logo on.I don't know either. Maybe some sort

(06:00):
of a clear sheen over the topof it. But give it, give
it a smooth have to paint aterrain you no, I know, but
if they put something smooth over that, something soft like uh, satin cover
like the shirt. Yeah, youcould put you look like a sock.
You can knit that on there.That's what that's that'll be my next job.

(06:24):
I'll be the person knitting logos ontofootball helmets. I think that's going
to slow down the positional players,you know, a little added extra drag.
Oh yeah, no, that's noteven a joke. Well, but
it'll save their brain maybe, yeah. I don't know. They're they're they're
doing a lot to try to protectthese players. I get it, but
I don't know if that's the right. I mean, they have different kinds

(06:45):
of helmets now. Well, Ijust think to myself, Rugby's are really
violent sport, and they go aftereach other, but they don't lead with
their heads. Because they're not wearinghelmets, right, So they've learned to
do things in ways that are Iknow, it's a very different sport,
but they don't lead with their heads. When I watch people try to tackle
and run full speed and then usetheir head like the head of a spear

(07:10):
leg. I mean, you can'tdo that, I know, but they
still still do it. They stilldo it because they've been doing it since
pee Wee's. Yes, I watchedthem. I've been watching peewee practice as
I drive past it for years now, and I just it's, you know,
like Kenny said, they're like threefour years old when they're starting to
learn this. Yeah, it doesn'tgo away. And fewer of them too.

(07:30):
Youth football players, by the way, they not in my town.
It's like a giant field of them. There's like a thousand of them.
Yeah, the numbers are definitely downthough. No, I'm sure across the
country. Yeah, that's what I'msaying. Yeah, but not not King
Philip like good well, I mean, they're they won everything. I was
going to say. Did you seethe Chiefs signed a rugby player? Did
not? They did? Usually theyleave for rugby. Didn't we have a

(07:53):
guy leave for rugby, played forlike the US national team. Nate ebneratots
come back after that too? Ohreally, yeah, he came back the
Lex weather. We've got big legs. When you go to rugby, you
can take those legs back to football. Piano moving legs. Yeah, am
mass passing shower this morning, otherwisecool with clouds breaking for some sun.

(08:15):
Highs in the lower fifties. Mostlycloudy with a chance of showers tomorrow.
Highs in the sixties. I don'teven know what the tempt is. I
actually never looked forty six. Whoaforty six degrees in Boston? I'm other
fort on one hundred point seven doublesthe Lex, Boston's only Classicicrock morning show,
five forty four, Yeah, fortysix. I'm surprised to say that
myself on this May, the firstApril, showers lingering into May, the

(08:39):
first year and a cool one.You're hungry for that warm weather, Kenny.
I am moving in gradually. I'ma fan of gradual I've had enough
gradualness in the month of April.Although the month seemed to fly by for
some reason, it just the weatherhas just been stuck in second gear.
You know what, I mean,I just fake spring. That's what we
were calling it for a while therein the beginning. But yes, it

(09:01):
will work its way up to thelow fifty. I guess we're supposed to
have some partial clearing this afternoon here. One thing is for shirting, certain
shirting, yes, shirt sut shirting, Yes, yes, there's a little
seunk Connery. The thousand dollars bribewill be resuming itself at nine to ten
this morning. That's right, yourfirst keyword. We give you thirteen of

(09:22):
them every weekday we open up Pete'sbank account, we unload a grand thirteen
times every weekday. It's still ahealthy account, still be running for a
while. You know when well youreturned all those bottles and cans recently a
whole garage fall from the winter.So that was nice to add to the
coffers. You know. We openedthe show Pete with Louli Yosemite Sam.
You know Yosemite Sam was all aboutthat money. It was all about that

(09:45):
gold, wasn't he gold Bridge YourYes, you could be as excited as
the coked out Yosemite Sam coming upat nine to ten with our thousand dollars
bribe. Hey, on the waynext, I led Zeppelin tune that although
it was a fan favorite and oneof Zeppelin's most enduring songs, the band

(10:05):
never performed it live from beginning toend while they were active in the seventies
up until nineteen eighty. Crazy thatthis song they never played live. It
wasn't until that one off reunion showin London back in two thousand and seven
that they ripped through This next onefrom the Planet Fitness WCLX Studios, Horizon
Now, now, thanks for makingus part of your morning. People are

(10:28):
idiots? Great story, Thank god. Fine on one hundred point seven WCLX,
Boston. This is the type ofstuff that you read about onlike truecrafts
right. Interesting that they don't haveenough evidence even if the babies were never
alive, it's still a dead fetus. That kind of confuses me. It's
always going to be in the backof my mind, like what actually happened
there and what was going on obviouslywasn't right and wants someone to be brought

(10:52):
to justice for that. Bring yourmind back to twenty twenty two and this
is the headline from yesterday, thoughno charges after four frozen babies found freezer
of South Boston home. Now.It was again November of twenty twenty two,
so I can understand if you don'tremember it. I also can understand
if you do, because it wasfour frozen babies found in a freezer.

(11:13):
Some of them had their well,they all had their umbilical cords, some
of them still had placenta, andthey were This is gross. It's very
a gross flashback. Yeah, it'sfrozen solid, by the way, I
mean, this is two female,two male shoeboxes wrapped in tinfoil. That's
how I mean. It wasn't justlike bodies in a freezer and like people

(11:33):
were opening up and looking at theirlittle baby faces. There was, you
know, shoeboxes involved. But soyou're thinking yourself, so they've decided not
to press charges. The woman,the father of the babies, DNA wise,
is deceased and has been deceased sincetwenty eleven. The mother is approaching
seventy and she was interviewed by investigatorsat the care center where she lives.

(11:56):
So I'm thinking, I don't knowthough, that maybe they just decided is
it worth it they can't mentally fitfor trial, or maybe that maybe the
fact that you know they would haveto take a lot of Like we all
watch those medical shows and those investigativeshows, and everything happens in sixty minutes,
but maybe really trying to figure outif those babies were alive when they

(12:18):
were born for more, you know, and if they were murdered would take
a really long time and a lotof money and is it worth it.
At this point, they had anotherchild, a fifth child together that they
had put up for adoption. Yeah, so she I know. Yeah,
I don't know about forensics. Idon't know either how advanced it is.
Yeah, and they determine whether thoseand how old they were, like how

(12:41):
long they've been in the freezer?Wow, well a long time. But
I mean I think the forensics isthere. I just don't know if the
money's there right like it and thetime like it would take it Probably it
doesn't happen in a sixty minute show. It takes money. When they when
you send in like when you actuallydo the watch or listen to dateline and
they send in DNA evidence, theywait months, like sometimes six months,

(13:03):
and even if it's a really importantcase, they wait months, not like
sending it out and it comes backfive minutes later. Som hmm, I
don't know. It was just sucha icky story. Yeah, and like
they were living in that apartment orthat house and like putting their peas in

(13:24):
there and other frozen items just inand their brains. Never once said bury
these babies, you know. Yeah, it sounds like an illness, Oh
my God, for sure. Andfour of them and they were obviously home
births. That's okay, I'm done, Thank yous. Weather a passing shower

(13:46):
this morning, otherwise cool with cloudsbreaking for some sun You like how I
get more into that than Karen Reidthough, Like I know more about this
case than I do about the onethat's right gaining national attention. Highs in
the lower fifties today, mostly cloudywith chance of showers tomorrow. Highs in
the sixties, forty six degrees inBoston. I'm Heather Ford on one hundred
point seven WUZLX, Boston's only classicrock morning show, one hundred point seven

(14:09):
w ZLX six fifteen. Now.Showers through the middle of the day,
maybe a few breaks of sunshine thisafternoon. Hi's only about fifty for your
May the first here, Yes,May well, it is May. Thank
you. JT Let's getting young PeteMcKenzie have a faud. I came across
this on Loudwire. It's a rockand roll website that I follow has music

(14:35):
news, band updates, interviews,things like that. But they post an
interesting question as we're entering into thetwenty twenty four concert season summer wise anyway
summer concert seasons almost tire As isthe ticket rock summer and it was simply
this They posted with over nearly threethousand comments, what's the most annoying thing
people do at concerts that you attend? And this is an interesting topic.

(15:00):
I get this a lot because I'mjust as God made me. But the
third one down tall people standing infront of me blocking my view at concerts.
Listen, I'm six four. Itell you this all the time.
I can't help it. And ifI sit down so that you can see
now, I can't see because ofthe person in front of me. So
I don't know what you want meto do. And I think I,

(15:20):
as a tall person, have theright to purchase a good seat. You
can't change the way you are,that's right. I'm sorry, I'm gonna
guess at Number one is holding upcell phones and videotape that seems to be
a common occurrence. People with theirphones in the air, not watching or
listening to the show. That keepscoming up. It's not a top ten,
it's just people's comments. Okay,but that already on the first page.

(15:43):
People with their phones out constantly,you know what I mean recording that.
Yeah, we don't. My wifeand I don't go to too many
shows. We've gone to a few. The last one I think we went
to was a Genesis show, andthat was when Phil Collins was not in
a chair. I mean, thisis you know, he was up in
active having ten eleven years ago.Whenever it was at the garden and Sandy,

(16:03):
my wife was standing up and joiningthe music, you know. And
who's tiny by the way, He'sskinny and not real tall. Its normal,
like easy to see over, sure, over and around, like she
is just a tiny person. Andyou know what, am I gonna do?
Am I gonna confront? Am Igonna make a scene? Now?

(16:26):
Sandy? Yes, but my dadhas always said about like both you and
Kevin. He was always like,I wouldn't mess with them. I was
going they're not those kind of guys, They're not like fighters. He goes,
I don't know that right just bylooking at just by looking at you,
yah, wouldn't You wouldn't think thatI've never thrown a punch in my
life. You could stand up andturn around and see what happens. But
then I might have to throw apunch for the first time in my life.

(16:48):
New Okay, but it's to aperson who's yelling at a woman.
Yeah, we got told to sitdown one So is that an Eric Clapton
show at the Garden? And ashe had launched into the electrics, I
know, everyone got excited. Therewas like six of us in our row
that we didn't know each other,you know, but we all, oh,
now we're going to rock out,and we all kind of stood up
and we heard yeah cattle calls fromthe people behind us, yelling a that's

(17:12):
we paid good money for the end. We said, yeah, we did
too. It about age though,because William, my seventeen year old,
just went to an Ajar concert.I know, you don't know who that
is at the Garden. They soldout two shows and for both shows,
everybody there stood for the entire time, no matter where you were. Yeah,
I don't know. I mean Springsteenhas an older crowd. Actually it

(17:34):
there's a lot of you know,wide range of age, and a Springsteen
show, like the Genesis show wastypically old, older people that needed to
sit. I guess yeah, maybeI don't know, but still you have
the right to stand and walk outif you want, right. Another couple
of comments here, people were saying, singing loudly, badly all throughout the

(17:56):
concert is a big annoise. Itmy onlylloyance. I hear that a lot.
Someone who's right next to you,who's singing so loud, off key,
and then you can't hear. Youcan't mix. They mixed together and
it ruins your experience. I'm withyou there. I've heard the comment from
people around around me who were youknow, singing. Then somebody's somebody will

(18:19):
say, did you write that songor did you sing that song? Let
this person sing this song. I'mhere to listen to them live exactly and
experience in person what I experience inmy car in my house. My buddy
Jeff had the best comeback to thatof all time. I heard him one
singing. No, another guy wasand he goes, hey who sings that

(18:40):
song? And somebody said, justfor the say garment Steven Tyler and my
buddy Jeff goes good. Let him, let him. I want to hear
from you listeners on our talk backLet us know what your biggest concert annoyance
is, right, and maybe wecan help remedy at this summer season before
we get into full swing. Here, open up your heart radio. I've
tried that talkback feature. Leave amessage. You can text WZX over to

(19:02):

(19:25):
And we'll be getting into some StarWars talk in just a little while.
Yes, Yes, big marathon comingup this weekend. Forty six degrees on
its way up to the low fifties. Yeah, drizzle rain on and off
this morning and then some breaks ofsunshine by the afternoon. After the show
yesterday, I paid a visit tothe Seaport area was another one of those
Wendy's breakfast office visits. Very busy. Yeah, boy, I gotta tell

(19:47):
you. The way Wendy's does thisis they they pack for twenty five people
a breakfast and they drop it offfor Adam, our promotions director at the
site. So they bring it there, no middleman. I like it,
No middleman, right, and thenAdam takes up six boxes of breakfast stuff

(20:07):
for these office work twenty five people. So this was a pharmaceutical company in
Boston. So I was hoping toget a goodie bag when I left,
but I didn't because they don't haveany there. What a prescription medication or
what. Yeah, so this pharmaceuticalcompany doesn't They do research and development there,
but it's more of the numbers games. So they don't actually have pharmaceuticals.

(20:30):
Would makes sense at that facility.Yeah, they car to manufacture things
there. Well, they have anotherfacility in Boston, right, not in
that building where they actually do thatportion of it. So I didn't meet
those people, but I will tellyou I met about twenty people, all
in their twenties, all professional workers. I was really impressed. I mean,

(20:52):
all ages in the twenties, allethnic backgrounds, all doing the same
thing. Stats. They were allstatisticians for this pharmaceutical company, and the
winner Rachel. She also won apair of George Thoroughgood tickets with her little
breakfast package. Nice. So Iasked her, do you know who that

(21:14):
is? You know? And bythe way, I couldn't record anything in
there. Actually it was much likegoing into the Secret Service, whereas I
had to be scanned. I hadto walk through a turnstile area. It's
you know, yeah, well littletsa ish yeah, so there were there
were no recordings done. But Iasked, you know, do you know

(21:37):
who? And she goes, yeah, I know who he is. You
know why I know who he is? My dad. So she's gonna say
my granddad. Dad's better than granddad. She wasn't. She's not going to
Thoroughgood with anybody but her dad.That's cool, but her dad. Yeah.
But a great group of people,I mean, you know, And
that's how these people earned these officevisits from you and Wendy's is because they

(22:00):
had entered you know, weeks weeksand weeks ago, right, and then
randomly chose workplaces to go. Yeah. In fact, Adam was telling me
that our group here in Boston,we did twenty five of these breakfast visits,
you know, between all the radiostations here, so a nice hook
up with iHeartMedia and Wendy's. Youknow, for sure, they even gave
us a boombox Wendy's did oh yousee iHeart Radio on one speaker and Wendy's

(22:26):
another that right, yeah, rightexactly. But yeah, it's good,
it's good stuff. That's awesome,right? Is that it for them?
Do you have any more for workoffice visits? I think that's it.
Yeah, that's it until next time. Yeah. Yeah, And you know
all that talk about those burritos youdid in the commercials man, I'm telling

(22:47):
you, well, you know it'sgood. They're on the map now for
breakfast. You don't you know theyweren't top of mind for fast food breakfast,
but slowly getting there to work inprogress when you were never there.
Yeah oh yeah, yeah, listen, Yeah, we're gonna get into some
other talk here coming up in afew minutes. So we got some more
tunes to drop your way and thensome socks talk. How's this for a

(23:08):
teaser? Boston Red Sox in twentytwenty four are leading Major League Baseball,
all of Major League Baseball in twovery huge categories. We'll get into it,
and I fields Boston's only classic rockmorning show. You're all welcome one
hundred point seven WZLEC six forty sevenforty six on its way up to the
fifties. A wes SATs to themonth of May. But what a month

(23:30):
of April for our Boston Red Sox. Yes, coming off that series sweep
or series sweep series win over theCubbies over the weekend. Another strong outing
for your man, say it withme. I know, Pete, you're
gonna go order his jersey. CooperCriswell. Cooper Cooper Chriswell with another strong

(23:51):
outing on the mound, number sixtyfour. If you're keeping scoring your programs
at home, all between him andTanner, I gotta tell you Tanner how
he's pitching great too, Yeah,I mean, you know, better than
people expected for a striding rotation.I got to tell you for the month
of April, this starting rotation forour Boston Red Sox are leading the major
leagues in the lowest team era.Okay, I don't think anyone saw that.

(24:17):
Where's the bullpen stand? Well,yeah, that's the problem. That's
their biggest problem. Maybe some ofyour statticians can pull that number. I'm
sure they're twenty or worse. Soyeah, not only the lowest team era,
but now, after last night's fourto six shutout of the San Francisco
Giants at friendly Fenway Park, ourBoston Red Sox in the month of April,

(24:37):
first full month of the season haverecorded six shutouts just the first month.
Nice g you how many they hadall last year shutouts? Five exactly,
five on the nose all the entireseason, one hundred and sixty two
games now and already in this firstmonth, that's seventeen and thirteen in your
standings. Six shutout and they hadsome early injuries. Are getting healthy just

(25:00):
never. Tyler O'Neill's back in thefold. Raffie Devers looks okay. Hopefully
Tristan Cassis isn't sidelined too much longer, but uh, other guys are picking
him up. Reese Maguire, yourcatcher. I watched him steal a base
last night. How often do yousee catchers stealing bases? Everybody knows catchers
can't run, right, Yeah,Connor Wong and exactly you're not expected them

(25:22):
to. Uh yeah, but itwas. It was nice to see you're
Tyler O'Neill won for five, butwhile you're a bray. I think I'm
getting his name right after the firstmonth of the season, three for four
and another nice knock to to rightfield. This kid's all over the place
in the lineup, and I didn'tsee it last night. Loron Grissom was
not in the lineup last night.Did see him? He's the guy they

(25:44):
picked up from the sale trade.All the trust. We have some pretty
good talent middle and little Pop LittlePop so socks continue there series too.
I just had to throw that outthere because I thought those two facts alone
about the e r A and theshutouts was pretty impressive. So it's good
to have starting pitcher. Yeah,sure, don't sleep on this team.
Yeah. And to Pete your point, if we could get the bullpen together,
I'm just saying we're only two anda half games out of first place.

(26:07):
Dare I say, all right,six fifty now, and remember coming
up at nine to ten here thismorning, your next chance to become a
thousand are from a Planet Fitness WCLXStudios. Now, thanks for making that
part of your morning, idiot,great story, Thank god on one point

just you haven't done anything wrong tohave the karma come back and bite you.
That's right, So it's not karma. Yeah no, I've never been
in that cortage of driven by itmany times. I never been in that.
Thanks. Does it look pretty?It looks like a courthouse courthouse?

(27:17):
Yeah yeah, yeah, alrighty welltake next to him. So this is
I'm actually fight house yesterday. Well, yeah, and I'm actually I don't
know about you too. I'm surprisedthis doesn't happen more often. I know
there's a lot of like you know, police officers and court officers there which
would stop you from punching people out. But things that happen in courtrooms like
this are very emotional, right,it gets it escalates quickly. Yes,

(27:38):
So a brawl and suit in thehallway of the courthouse yesterday. That guy
Ryan Sweat, he's thirty six yearsold. He's been charged with murder.
This is the one where there waslike road rage going on. And then
in April and uh, and thenhe's accused of turning his car around the
other group. They got out oftheir car and he ran over a twenty

(27:59):
six year old woman named Destiny andkilled her. So he's accused of that.
So this is what's going on,and then their two families they start
going after each other. I wouldsomeone would have to hold me back in
a scenario like this, like Iwas, do you ever. I mean,
that's why they're usually surrounded by people. I mean you see there's like
three people holding her back. Yeah, because of the rage that's going through

(28:22):
her, right, like, Ilisten to all these you know, murder
podcasts, and I think to myself, I would never be able to go
to the courthouse. Everybody goes.I want to go. I'm going to
support It's really difficult. I'm thinkingI would spend the whole time trying not
to murder the person who's accused ofmurdering someone in my family. Yes,
I feel the same way. Idon't. I don't understand how they don't.

(28:42):
I mean maybe I just how howdo you sit there in the same
courtroom with somebody? But it mustbe certain people have to do that,
you know, for most people tomost people do sit there and go through
it. They're tough. I wouldn'twant to. I wouldn't either, And
I get it. They want tobe there and they want to see justice
carried out. And I understand that. But yeah, from an emotional perspective

(29:04):
me, I'm on a swing ofbat yeah exactly. And I'm a peaceful
man and you are a peaceful man. I'm going to go into another really
weird and very violent sounding, althoughI don't know how violent. It was
the story that from twenty twenty two, where a woman was accused of having
babies in a freezer. Four foursolidly frozen babies in a freezer in South

(29:30):
Boston with mbilical cords and in somecases placenta, and they were in shoe
boxes, wrapped in tinfoil and afreezer, and they've decided they're not going
to press charges, and so it'sjust been very confusing, especially for the
neighbors in the area who found outthey lived with a near a woman who

(29:52):
had four frozen babies. This isthe type of stuff that you read about
unlike true crafts right interesting that theydon't have enough evidence. Even if the
babies were now were alive, it'sstill a dead fetus. That kind of
confuses me. It's always going tobe in the back of my mind,
like what actually happened there and whatwas going on obviously wasn't right, and
wants someone to be brought to justicefor that mail to male babies. This

(30:14):
couple, the husband or the geneticfather of the babies, died in twenty
eleven. There was another baby thatwas put up for adoption and the woman
she has been in a home.She's in her sixties, she's sixty nine,
so she's interviewed and being interviewed ata care center. So I'm thinking

(30:38):
maybe they don't. It would justbe too expensive to go through the process
of figuring out if these babies weremurdered. I forget the circumstance. How
did this come to light? Howdid they discover these four I think?
So let me go back. Ithink someone else moved into there and they
were still in someone was cleaning outa relative's apartment. Again, this woman
was at that point sixty seven andyou know, about to go into a

(31:02):
care facility. Yeah, yeah,she's the next people that went in there
that found Yeah. Wow, Ican't. I know, it blows my
mind that there's no charges being fine, Yeah, not nothing. There's no
accountability for this. Well, thisis from the prosecutor a quote. The
prosecutor's office cannot ethically move forward witha case that, in good faith,
that believes it cannot bring to trial. Here based on the evidence obtained throughout

(31:26):
the investigation, including the many unansweredquestions about the cause of death of the
four babies, prosecutors have made thedetermination that they will not be able to
bring this case to trial. Therefore, the investigation will not result in criminal
charges. It's just I know,z Lexwheather. I hate to end on
that, but I will a passingshower this morning. Otherwise cool with clouds
breaking for some sun. Highs inthe lower fifties mostly Claudie, with a

(31:48):
couple of the chance of showers tomorrow. Highs in the sixties. Forty six

high holiday. May the fourth,as in May the Fourth be with you.
I know, I know, ifyou're not into it, I understand.
I'm not into Star Trek. I'vealways been on the Star Wars side.
There's two different camps there. It'skind of like the Stones and the
Beatles. If you ask me,there's devotees to each side, one more

(32:57):
than the other. I think it'ssafe to say, yeah, I mean,
I'm in the middle. I thinkyou know. I mean, I
a casual observer enjoy the Star Warsmovies, but I don't follow the saga.
I can't track it. I can'ttell you what came before what or
what came after. But you know, you know I'm casual. I'm a
casual observer. Heatherfored. You've seena lot of the Star Wars films I

(33:20):
have. Yeah, I like allof them, but I like Star Trek
too. I like them both thesame. My husband likes them both the
same too. You had to chooseone series, one what do they call
it, one franchise, one ofthem's TV in the beginning, in one
of them's movies. So I don'tknow. Star Trek made a lot of
movies too, No, I knowthey did but no, I like both,
gotcha, but Star Wars is fun. Well for you enthusiasts, you're

(33:44):

get twenty five percent off your concessionsduring the marathon. Nine films back to

film that is. But starts ateight pm and it'll wrap up May the

(34:24):
fourth. Okay, that's perfect forthe geeks. So eight twenty five tomorrow
morning. Oh one side note too, Yeah, do you realize Kenny that

No, if it were to be, let's hope its seven games. Yeah,

Now we're gonna find out what's goingon with Pete's rig coming up next at

(34:49):
seven forty. Oh yeah, youknow I love that truck. Yeah,
I love them to pick them uptruck, but that deep side just tells
me we're gonna want to find out. What's What's what I tell you about
it? Oh? One hundred pointseven WZLX. The Mighty Zeppelin, you
know, in the early days,used to close out their club shows with
Dazed and Confused, sometimes going onfor twenty minutes or more back in the

(35:12):
day. Yeah, they like tostretch things out, the Mighty Zeppelin.
Hey, it's a seven forty kitty, young Pete McKenzie, Heather forward with
you and a little earlier this morning, we approached a topic with you nice
people about your biggest concert grievances,your biggest annoyances when you go see a
concert and talkbacks for firing up here. My husband and I have been quite
a few shows lately where everyone issitting and these are rock shows. It's

(35:37):
driving us bonker right, stand upand enjoy it. Yes, rock out.
I understand if you want to sitduring the drum solo or maybe I'm
sorry or keyboard solo or something likethat, or maybe even the guitar solo.
Right, but if the band's jammingout, I think every ticket holder
that wants to has a right tostand up in rock out. Do you
want to dance? Yeah, youwant to dance, You want to move

(35:59):
around? These concerts are escapes fromour daily lives, right, sure,
you know, let people enjoy themhow they want. Yeah, we got
a text to text. Said Oneof his biggest grievance at a rock concert
is people complaining at a rock concert. That's great, Oh look at the
time, let's do this. What'sgoing on with Boston's only classic rock morning

(36:20):
show on one seven w z lexI pick them up truck. I had
been hearing a noise over the lastfew days coming from the right front tire
area, and it sounded like scrave. It sounded like something was stuck in
the you know, in the wheelwell, or something rubbing. Sounded like
knives being sharpen. Is what it'shappened? Like? Oh, little much

(36:44):
little, A little faster pace though, because when you're driving, yes,
yes, well maybe this is youdriving through a school though, So I'm
investigating it, right, I'm lookingunder there I don't see a damn thing.
So I let it go though fora few days, because truck seems
to be running fine as time wenton, though, Like I'm driving back

(37:05):
yesterday from Boston, because I wentdowntown into the Seaport district, and when
I got in the tunnel, Irolled down my window to see if I
could hear it, you know more, and I even with the other cars
around, yes, and it's likeyeah, so like so yeah, I
took it up to my and Ilove having a guy. I love having
a mechanic where I can, youknow, cut everybody off in line,

(37:28):
who's ever in there? I justgo in there and he takes a look
at and he loves having a peetewho knows nothing about cars, right right,
Yes, here's what I told him, Heather. I told him it
sounds like metal against metal, andmy suspicion is bearings of its bearings.
That's what my suspicion is when yoususpicions. Right, Well, I was
right on. But what was scary? So your wheel was about to fall

(37:53):
off? Yes, yep? Heput it up on a lift, okay,
and he went to the passenger sideand tried to shake it and it
wouldn't move solid right. You couldturn it. You just can't, you
know, go back and forth withit. And then he went to the
driver's side and he wiggledbbled and wobbled. Oh. He said, now look

(38:13):
it if that. He goes,how far? How far do you live
from here? I said a mile? He goes, it's too far.
I said, I just drove infrom boss. He goes, Well,
you're lucky. Wow, it didn'tmake any big turns. If that breaks
you, you need a new axle. You need a new truck. Basically
rolling on your axle. Otherwise,basically, if you're going sixty miles an

(38:34):
hour or like seventy five in Kenny'scase, like he drives on the bike,
Uh, you know you're going tocause an accident. You're going to
hurt yourself. Your truck's going tobe totaled. So I was that close?
Wow? Yeah, I mean Ifeel like somebody was watching over me
to make sure that I got tothe right place at the right time to
get that truck fixed. Calling youa dumb ass the whole time, Yes,

(38:54):
yes, that guy. Because mostof the time, when I hear
scary noises, when I hear scarynoises coming from the vehicle in years past.
Yes, well, I used tojust reach down and turn the radio
up. But in your case,you're like, yo, this you had
a feeling, you had a feelingthis was going to be more serious.

(39:15):
Yes, so again, you know, I don't want to give the guy
any advertising. He doesn't need it. He's got plenty of business coming through
there. But he got he youknow, he ordered the part a couple
hours later, had it installed sixhundred bucks later, which to me,
you know, if I'm going toa dealer, I feel like I'm going
to be paying a little bit morethan that. Yeah, I would think.

(39:37):
So, Yeah, he saved mylife and I'm going to keep my
pick him up truck. You don'thave to worry about that. Here's the
other thing he said about my DodgeRam. He looked at it and he
goes, I cannot believe this truckhas one hundred and twenty six thousand miles
on it. Oh, because itlooks so young and spry. It's because
I go to a I go toa car wash four or five times.

(40:00):
All three of us are regular asa car washing. Yeah, this rain's
been killing me, by the way, because you know when it dries it's
all spotty. Oh yeah, Iget over there. But I don't want
to waste a car wash when Iknow it's going to rain more. It's
like when you when you get yourcar washed, do you hesitate to roll
the window down because you know it'sgoing to go down into the water and
when you put it back up coveredwith waters? Yeah? Yeah, well
I don't. I don't do anythingto the car for I just drive real

(40:22):
fast down Route one. If Ican go once a day for twenty nine
dollars a month, I can goonce a day. Yeah, so it's
just super fun. The other thingthat crossed my mind, and I didn't
ask my mechanic this because I thoughtI might sound like a dumb ass.
Could all those car washes have somethingto do with the corrosion in the deal

(40:42):
in the bearing and the bearings?Is it too many car I didn't ask
him. Well, then ask himnext time. Do you think that's a
legit, that's not a stupid question. All three of us should know that
answer, and then we know whatto do. We'll respond accordingly. I
would think the car wash would helpclean out any debris and stuff in there,
you know, what I mean.Yeah, but the high powered pressure,
the moisture getting in there. Well, that's because you get your your

(41:04):
undercarriage wash. You should be gettingyour undercar I choose between the undercarriage wash,
Kenny and the tire shiny especially oscillatebetween you add on your ALA card
options. Yes, I got youall right, So yeah, the truck
will be up and running for agood while. Good while. He said,
you get three hundred, three hundredand fifty thousand miles out of that
truck. Now you said you werea mile from home. I think maybe

(41:25):
Heather and I are wondering the samething. Did you wait for the vehicle?
Did you walk home? I walked? Oh you did? I did
walk home? Good on you,lad, I sure did, good on
you. I did, And Igot a ride back from my wife to
get the an ice cream cone.You get ice cream? You get ice
cream? Uh seven forty six.Now keep in mind just over an hour
away, an hour and change yourfirst opportunity at one thousand bucks, thousand

(41:50):
dollars bribe. And if that's notenough to tickle your fancy from a planet
fitness, will you see Alex Studios. Now, thanks for making us part
of your morning great store one WCLXBoston when Boston twenty five has a headline
like, here's how to get ticketsto Tom Brady's Hall of Fame induction ceremony

(42:14):
and it's limited tickets And I'm like, oh, I forgot. Is it
like a lottery? Is? Doesanybody get to go? If you're a
season ticket holder? And it's onehundred dollars, It's a one hundred dollars
for the public purchase of a ticketto go watch and get inducted into the
Patriots. What's Patriots Hall of Fame? It's normal for those Have you ever
gone to one? Kids had nevergone to one. I thought it was

(42:35):
free to stand outside and watch hisspeech. I've thought I thought it was
free. Yeah, my buddy,I go with these season ticket all theer
Foxport resident. He sent a textout to our opening day group about that,
but he neglected to mention whether ornot we got to pay for him.
I'm guessing we do if we go. The team says a limited number
of tickets will go on sale forpublic purchase for one hundred dollars starting at

(42:58):
noon tomorrow. That's a price topay for a Pats fan to go see
his uh, his goat maybe alot of money. Why are they but
I could see Pats fans doing it. Why are they fleecing people for money
on something like this? Like youhave to pay money to go into that?
Do you have to pay to gointo the hall? You do?
Yeah? I mean honestly, youwalk through it and I just well,

(43:22):
that's why they're billionaires. I justI think a percentage goes to the charities,
but I think a Craft Foundation orsomething. But I think a portion
of this ticket goes to charity.I think don't pay his charity or any
charity. Is it all Craft team'scharity? Yeah, I mean, but
a hundred dollars, Like you can'tgo with other people, Like that's the
kind of thing where you're like,I'm gonna take the kids. You're not

(43:45):
gonna pay four hundred dollars to gosee Tom Brady go into the Patriots Hall
of Fame. They will, Iknow. I just seems sad step,
It just seems steep. It seemsmean. How about that. Did you
see gerd Maos that he would welcomeTom Brady back to the Patriots as as
a coach, as a coach,as a quarterback coach or he'd be like

(44:07):
special teams to be like, listen, I'm gonna put you someplace completely uncomfortable.

Boston, I'm Heather Ford on onehundred point seven Double u z LX,
Boston's only classic rock morning show,eight twenty on the NOS forty six,
on its way to the low fiftiesfor this May the first it's gonna be
May. Thank you jt Hey.You know if you were listening a little
earlier last hour in our What's goingOn feature, we were talking about Peach

(47:15):
rig Peach truck and how he hadyou had to have your bearings replaced there
because yeah, the wheel was aboutto fall. Yeah right, I did.
You would post a question wondering ifall the car washes that you drive
through contributed to that. Well,we got an answer from a certified professional.
Next play this messages for Pete.Car washes do not affect a bearing

(47:36):
hub assembly for your truck. Theyare sealed and the corrosion is not caused
from that. It's just basically longhighway miles. Oh and you've registered some
long highway miles. Okay, soI have one hundred and twenty six thousand
miles on that truck. I willbe willing to wager ninety thousand on the
highway. Yeah, I think wecould all be in that boat. I

(47:58):
had one hundred and sixty in fourand a half years or almost five years
on that little car, and I'mpretty sure I changed a bunch of things.
Yeah, and it's all it's allhighway. The other thing I was
wondering too, not to extend thisconversation, but would I change the other
hub too, on the right sideof the truck passenger side at the same
time, because if one's gone,you'd think they do both. I know

(48:20):
my two front assemblies that wasn't broughtup, and I wasn't going to mention
it because I didn't want to spendtwelve hundred, six hundred dollars out of
the gates, ladies and gentlemen.I was out on a school night last
night, and I'm so glad Iwent because I've been wanting to go to
this place since it opened in November, talking about Top Golf down in Canton,
oh I passed it every day,Yeah, and it was awesome because

(48:42):
the ways took me all back roadsfrom my houseI enda all the way down
through your Sherborn Dover, Nita andcan all the way down University af So.
I was only one ninety five forlike a very short period because that
was all backed up. It wasa nightmare. But when I got on
the University have exit. Sure there'slights there, but much less traffic,

(49:04):
and I screwed my way in there. We gathered with American Cancer Society.
Our real men were pink. Theywere doing like a little thank you for
some of us that did our fundraisinglast fall and they threw a little party
for us. And what I didn'trealized about Top Golf was how good the
food is there? Yeah, Imean, you know, the driving range
games were a blast. We hadfun doing that. But Digital, I

(49:27):
mean, ACS rolled out this awesomespread of food for us. There's brisket
and grilled chicken and sides, bakedmac and cheese with the crumbly top that
you know I like. And Igot to tell you, yeah, the
food there at Top Golf was awesome. And I've been trying to go there
to check it out because this isour first location in Massachusetts. I think
there's one down in Connecticut or Island. But anyway, I finally got in

(49:50):
because even they said, the organizersof the event last night, they said,
we've been trying to get this bookedfor two months and they only gave
us two dates that were available.There's ninety bays and when I tell you,
the parking lot was full, Ihad to circle around like a shark
and infested waters to try to findparking lot of impressive business concept. Man,
it really is. It really iscrushes. They run it so smooth,

(50:13):
it's heavily staffed. Everyone is sofriendly there and they're not paying me
to say any of this, butI would definitely go back for like an
outing. And the heated bays likelast night was still a little chilly.
Oh yeah, probably like forty sixforty seven when I went there, And
yeah, but because of the heatedbays, you're allowed eight people in your
little booth, So even if youdon't hit golf balls or enjoy it,

(50:35):
you can still go and hang out. There's TVs. So the B's game
had started at seven. We werethere six to eight, and so that
came on and like I said,there was a service right at your booth,
full bar. That's a nice littletreat for your work with the ACS.
It was. It was really nice. As one of the top fundraisers
last year, Thanks to you guysfor donating. One of the things I
noticed about Top Golf is the differentlevels they have, right they got to

(50:58):
do yeah, saying as you go, you know, you go to the
second level, there's nets in frontof the bays where, yes, in
case you happen to stumble and falloff, you fall into a net of
really so our server when she gotus set up there, she said and
just you know, don't go pastthat yellow line, that yellow line where

(51:19):
the net is she goes, becauseif you do, we're gonna have to
call the fire department to come andget you down with the ladder. And
so one of the organizers said,has that happened yet? She said,
yes, yep, she said.We had a little old lady that just
swung too hard and she stumbled offthe mats into the net, which caught
her and did its job, andthen she peed and frightened it. Because
she was so frightened, it justtrickled all the way down through all the
nets. But believe me, Ithought about it, because yeah, there's

(51:42):
multi tiers and multi levels to thisthing, and yeah, and you know
there's balls coming straight down at times, and you know, Aaron shots,
so you could see how you'd haveto be a little careful there. But
overall is successful outing now, Pete, I know you want to go to
their sister organization I do, whichis put yes, owned by the same
people, the rand new one onNatick. Yeah. I haven't gone yet,

(52:05):
Kenny, but I know they're upand run, and I do want
to go out there. You canalways go out there and work on your
putts. Maybe we should put togetherlike teams against each other, you know
what I mean. I mean weshould go there after work sometimes. Yeah,
they've lunch a full bar there.Yeah, you know what. I
drive past it every day on myway home from work, and that's the
only time the parking lot is onlyhalf full, just the golf. If

(52:25):
you were thinking of doing that onetime instead of the one you guys were
just talking about, because I youknow, it's like the only time during
the day. Yeah, it's herdowntime. Yeah, you go on there
and dodge some traffic. Yes,But hey, listen, we are looking
at the clock here. It's nearlyeight forty. You know what that means?

caught a picture video of Bish isit Bish? No? Bruce? Oh,
Bruce, Bruce is the white one, And she showed it to me,
you know, because I don't lookat Instagram scan that much, And
she said, look at that dog'sface. He is a handsome boy,
handsome hands Make sure you like itfor me. Yeah, the one blue

(58:34):
eye and one brown eye. AndI'm convinced the blue eyes blind by the
way. Yeah, he's a littlenervous, nervous in the nighttime. Okay,
I'm convinced he doesn't see it oneof his eyes. Maybe it's bionic,
maybe like Steve Austin. Yeah,Dane, just Dane. I don't
know about you guys, or ifyour significant others are active at all on
the Gram. I know, Ithink I've seen Sandy on there right once

(58:57):
in a while. She'll cruise through. I think she's scrolled. She's a
scroller. Yeah, she's not aposter, but a scroller. My wife's
the same way. She's a scroller, not a poster. And we send
each other, you know, privatemessages with stuff, as we all do
on the Instagram. I will sendeach other reels and stuff like that.
Well, I have to send mywife this story out of west Westford,
mass Westford Academy students had this tripto Italy, planned an eleven day tour,

(59:23):
this cultural trip to Italy, andyeah, you look so forward to
this. These kids were pumped up, and you know, the wife and
I were going to Italy in Septemberfor my fiftieth very excited about it.
But then I saw this story whichI have to send to her from the
Sun of the Little So I doyou want to do that? Because we

(59:44):
just have to be prepared. Sothese Westford Academy students, about one hundred
of them came home with souvenirs thatthey didn't plan on, and that was
bed bugs. Yeah, I heardabout this taking over the Olympics already in
Paris. They're trying to bury thatstory because it's the Olympic. But and
it's like five star hotels across Europeand buses and trains are being infested with

(01:00:07):
bed bugs. So they're trying towarn the public that are going overseas you
just be ready for it because theylike to borrow in there and feed on
the blood of humans and animals asthey sleep. So yeah, the CDC
said it's a growing problem, andin my opinion, they're trying to bury
the Paris side of it because ofthe Olympics. Right, did you say

(01:00:28):
Paris site of it or parasite Paris? Oh? I said what you did.
So I wonder if Westward Academy,if you know, how do you
treat the bed bugs? Fortunately,I've never had them, so I don't
know. Is it a lot ofcalamine lotion? You never had them?
Thankfully? Do you have to burnall your clothing and suitcases? My mom

(01:00:49):
says, My mom says, yougot to take everything out of your house.
She goes, that's what she neverwanted to get them, and you
got to put it all on fire. And I was like, well,
we're not doing that in these travelerscases, this WES group you're talking about
that put all their luggage and plasticbags and tie them off until they were
and then fumigate them and then andthen treat them. Yes, Oh,
I guess you suffocate the bed bugs. Host. Is that how it works?

(01:01:10):
You starve them? You don't seteverything in your house on fire.
No, that's only if you finda spider. Heather, Well, listen,
now that I'm thinking about it,maybe I should not instagram her this
story. But yeah, don't dothat about the bed bugs. Oh my
god. Let's move on to moreappropriate things. And that is the thousand
dollars bribe. We are moments away, and I do mean just a few

(01:01:32):
moments away. At nine to ten. Here your first of thirteen opportunities to
grab a grip on w ZLAX BustIt's only Classic Rock morning show nine to
twenty two. She's chomping at thebit. Our dear friend Joe Anne Zlex's
most impressive listener. This just intothe operation Kennie, just play the whole

(01:01:52):
InSync song. I mean, it'sprobably older than some of the stuff you
guys play. Now you know whatsong she's talking about, right, p
you know what's not may You're ac LX first, I think. I
don't think it's a CLX tradition.I think it's a worldwide tradition. I've
been doing this for forty years almost. Heather and I don't remember us doing

(01:02:15):
this. We definitely have done itat least the last three really. Yeah,
sorry, I'd like to see that, come to it. Pete McKenzie,
you're going to have that earworm stuckin your ear for the rest of
the day that it's going to bestuck in. Baby, you had something

(01:02:37):
better you want to talk about thankeI gotta. I got a flash back
to my visit with the Secret Servicelast week. That is the trip that
just keeps on given because everything youdo now is a flashback to that day.
It really is. And uh nooffense taken to all the other places
we've gone to, including Curry Collegethis week where Joanne led the way with

(01:03:00):
office party, which I thought wasgreat and it was believe me, it
was great meeting those people fund.The people at the radio station on campus
didn't answer the door. That wasa downer. Yeah, but aside from
that, the secret service thing justkeeps on giving. You're right, either
you've learned things I have. Andit all surrounds this skimming, credit card

(01:03:20):
skimming at these grocery stores, gasstations, grocery stores ATMs. Right.
So I was in Roach Brothers yesterdayin Sudbury and apparently they were one.
They were victimized there. Now thegood thing is this word is getting around
that these skimmers are out there,and within minutes, nine different Roach Brothers

(01:03:43):
stores had skimmers. They all didit at the same time. They rattled
off all the towns Wellesley, Nat, Sudbury, all these places. They
say, Millie, that's mine Ioccasion and I'm so aware of it now
too. So so yeah, nineof these places had them, nine of

(01:04:04):
these Roach Brothers, but nobody wascompromised. That's because they found them so
fast, oh god, within minutesof them being applied. So all the
cashiers, now, because I wasa cashier at a grocery store WALLBMS,
they're teaching all of them to lookat it, aren't they. Plus there's
the guy that wanders and the girlthat wanders around the self checkout areas.

(01:04:25):
They're trained to go through probably andmake sure that it's the real one and
watch for people applying them. Youknow, it takes like thirty seconds to
put it together, to put iton there. Oh, it does.
From what they showed in the video, it takes about thirty seconds because it
just covers over the other skins.Right, I'm going to look at it
now, like how to do howthey do it so that I can see

(01:04:45):
if I can spot people. Yeah, exactly. Usually it's going to happen
when groups of people are at theregister, right, two or three people
rather than just one person checking out. That's where you got to be suspicious.
Somebody distracts the cashier or whoever else, somebody else slaps it on correct.
Correct, God, they do lookvery real, I've told you.
I mean, it's amazing how itjust slips right over. There's a whole

(01:05:09):
video on how to tell the difference. I will be watching that YouTube video
when we're not on air anymore.We have this consumer watchdog. Yes,
let's pass along the experts advice.That's right, And they create three D
printed skimming devices designed to work forthis particular chain or that chain and install
these skimmers and wirelessly catch all thatsensitive information. Swiping is bad. Anytime

(01:05:34):
you swipe a card these days andpunch in a pin, that's where they
drain your bank account. Yeah.Man, that's why I love tapping.
I'm a tapper with a credit card. With a credit card, tap it.
It's about the chip. When yousert the chip card, is that
better than sliding it through? Uh? It's swiping is the worst. So

(01:05:57):
I'm going to tell you that I'vebeen in two situations last month that seemed
weird to me where the person workingthe register not at a grocery store,
I went to go insert the chip. They're like, oh, it doesn't
work. You gotta swipe, AndI thought to myself, really do I
really have to? At which point? Now you're going to have to like
physically touch the apparatus to see ifit's loose or if there you know what
I mean. Check it. Theylook real. I couldn't tell. They

(01:06:24):
don't even look bulky. Yeah.CVB did the story and they actually have
video of the person placing the apparatusover top of the unit and you're looking
at it, going I would neverknow the difference, so sophisticated for these
three D printed things to then wirelesslytransfer all your information like that, just
like that. It's so fast,scary. Yeah. So again, don't

(01:06:45):
use the debit card, use acredit card. Pay the credit card off
because you're going to spend that moneyanyway with the debit card. Oh my
god. Well thanks Pete. It'sone more thing, and Pete's are our
consumer wise secret stared up. Yeahyeah, nine twenty eight. Now on
this Wednesday morning, you need aclean towel and a cold drink after that

(01:07:05):
one am I right, one hundredpoint seven wzlex It's Boston's only classic rock
morning show. Here, nine fiftyKitty Young, Pete McKenzie, heather Ford.
So we got a big, actionpacked Thursday plan for you tomorrow.
Here, I'll tell you what.Sure you're gonna get the thousand dollars bribes
since you do every hour and ittes you know that. You know that
at eight forty tomorrow we'll be doingour Classic Rock Clash. Can spend the

(01:07:26):
last twenty minutes working on the classrock questions. Look at that chance for
you listener to win that Eagles boxset tomorrow at eight forty. But did
you know this before the clash?Tomorrow we're gonna be getting into full Star
Wars mode eight twenty five tomorrow morning. Why don't you set a reminder on
your smartphones Star Wars fans giving youan opportunity to attend the nine film Skywalker

(01:07:51):
Skywalker Saga Star Wars Marathon. Saythat five times? No, no,

version of Star Wars. It wouldbe so good. Help me, Obi
wan Kenoby, You're my only hope? Where's my father? Showcase Cinema's debtam
is gonna host this. It startsFriday night at eight o'clock. They're gonna

(01:08:12):
show all nine Star Wars movies insequence chronological order. All right. We
got two passes to give away tothis thing, so it spills over into
May the Fourth Be with You.But that's not a well wait, that's
not all. Tomorrow morning at eighttwenty five, we'll give away the passes
for the marathon down there in Debtham. But you'll also get some limited edition
collectible merch to go along with it. We got posters, badges, and

(01:08:36):
the way I looked at it.Since it's nine hours, you're gonna need
to be fed and watered properly.So how does twenty five percent off all
concessions during the marathon sound to you? Ticket winners twice? The Star Wars
package, it's a nice bay,it's a nice package. How about this
package? I'm trying to convince thewife to go with me. There's this

(01:08:58):
is a real thing. I thinkit comes from Australia. It's called The
Empire Strips Back and it's a StarWars themed burlesque show and it's coming.
It's coming to the Huntington Theater.So it's just Jaba the Hudson. Oh
god, I don't want to seeJaba strip down the ladies. Right.
Yeah. I don't know what moviesit's going to be associated with, but

(01:09:18):
the Empire Strips Back, which wedo not have tickets for. I'm just
telling you about it. But yeah, it's a burlesque themed Star Wars parody.
Sexy Stormtroopers, you know, Chewynaked? Oh right. I don't
know if you want to see ashaved down Chewbacca, you know what I
mean? I would I'd look.I think he'd have to be I think

(01:09:41):
he have to be jacked up likeWolverine, right, I'd look. Yeah,
the Empire strips back coming to thetwist later this month. I think
she wants to go with me thewife. I'll have to see what it's
like, and it's playing in selectcities. But yeah, the focus here
again eight twenty five tomorrow morning,to get you into the real Star Wars
marathon. All right, the clothingis not optional, it's required, So
let me just throw that out there. I meanwhile, have yourselves a great

(01:10:04):
rest of your hump day here,and I'd be remiss if I didn't play
