(00:00):
It's Boston's only classic morning shows.Heather, you want to bring up the
Fritz Peterson story you mentioned to meearlier. It was Fritz Peterson. Peterson's
the guy who switched an entire familywith Is it Kekch, Mike Keketch,
Mike Keketch. Yes, so thatMike Kekch had a wife and uh like
a two daughters or a daughter anda son, and Fritz Peterson had a

(00:23):
wife and two sons. Major LeagueBaseball players Kenny with the Eggs, but
again then they both ended up playingin Cleveland, but they they At one
point people noticed that Kekch's wife andkids were with Peterson and Peterson's wife and
kids were with right, and andeveryone agreed to this, And I guess,
well, now I don't know.Fritz Peterson stayed with Kekech's wife and

(00:47):
kids until his death, but MikeKekech and Peterson's wife split up almost immediately
after the story broke. So theydidn't just wife swap for like an evening,
They fucking family swapped. All childrengot their children. I love the
fun. Well, I mean,people get divorced and then you get a
step parent. Right, he hadto be done legally. I'm sure even

(01:10):
then these two just chose to uhthey one of them fell in love with
the other's wife and vice versa.Yeah, and the wives went along with
it apparently. I mean, thewives were probably not in love with her
husband and we're in love with theother person. I mean, I grew
up in a neighborhood and there weren'ta lot of houses at first, but
there was two homes that there wasa divorce that happened, my parents said

(01:32):
within the first two years, becausethe one husband left his wife for the
other guy across the street his wifeand they I mean, it's usually not
a full swap, right, Butthese things happen all the time. I
know they have a young family,and I've lived in a lot of different
neighborhoods over the years, you know, probably six or seven different neighborhoods,
including the childhood neighbor Never heard ofanything like that, Never was in Fall.

(01:56):
I mean, even as it's anadult, about anybody having any kind
of extracurricular marital affairs with people inany of the neighborhoods I had lived in,
oh, all of them. Yeah, it's amazing to me because you
didn't know about them that I didn'tknow about them, and they were happening.
They happened, I'm sure they were. But I mean maybe people didn't
talk about them, but it wasso obvious in the neighborhood where I grew

(02:20):
up. They were all young familiestoo. I mean all these people were
in their twenties and they and theone was they'd have crazy and stuff and
the two just flirted. And Imean it happens at work all the time,
it happens in your neighborhoods. I'msure it does. I mean I've
seen it happen in my neighborhood becauseI've never done it. Yeah, well
it doesn't. Yah, it didnot your mind to do anything like that.

(02:40):
I don't ever get so personal orhangout so much that, Yeah,
it's ever going on a side note, I just a quick related story because
you mentioned the Cleveland team which FritzPeterson and Mike Kekitch were part of.
After being Yankees and this whole familyswap thing, there was another story and
you might remember this name Deny.Yeah. Ah, so he started his

(03:01):
career in Cleveland. He was theRookie of the Year in nineteen seventy five.
Right, Oh, that's around whenthey were there. This was the
seventies, same era, same erafor the two of them. The guy
on the left is the one thatdied. I think is still alive.
Okay, Yeah, So this guythat I'll show you, his name is
Rick Manning. You probably never heardof him, but he spent thirteen seasons

(03:24):
with Cleveland Hair no centerfield right.Rick Manning had an affair with Dennis Eckersley's
wife. Oh god, in theseventies. So the Indians decided, well,
they are the Indians at the time. Now they're the Guardians. But
the Indians at the time decided,we got to get rid of one of
these guys because it's going to justcause dissension. They're not just swapping families.

(03:46):
They're actually just one person's benefiting,right, one person is having an
affair with another players. We'll getrid of the guy who's having the affair.
You don't get rid of the guywhose wife left him. In typical
Cleveland fashion, they got rid ofthe wrong, got rid of the wrong.
They got rid of Arosy, Yeah, who went on to win the
twenty games with the Socks the verynext year. Yeah, when the Socks.

(04:06):
Then he went to Oakland and becameright get rid of the guy who's
white. Exactly. I think he'sso emotionally fucked up at that point he
can't actually perform his title and hisjob. And you're like, well,
you screwed crazy, another mistake bythe Lake, right exactly. You know
what's really weird too, is Eckersleydid games for the Socks on TV.
Manning Rick Manning does games for Clevelandon TV. Pretty good at it?

(04:30):
Yeah, yeah, he's pretty goodat pretty good at it? Is he
still Wither's wife? I don't know. I don't know. Interesting, that's
a question. Meanwhile, yeah,first Pitch Guardians are in town. First
Pitch at eleven ten, just overan hour away, going see how that
cutter Crowford will be taking the socks. You know what, I just Heather,
I cannot bring myself anymore to goto live sporting events. And you
know how much I love that?Yeah? What I mean, I seriously

(04:55):
enjoyed being at Bruins games, atCeltics games in Fenway Park. Right now,
I have no desire to be inthat crowd. What is it like?
What is it about the crowds?It's I just lost the flavor of
being in a live atmosphere, andI was the biggest proponent of it,
like there's nothing like being there live, you know, But now I'm just

(05:18):
I'm over it. I guess nowthe season ticket holder for the Revs.
So I still go to a lotof live games and I love it.
But for me, the convenience ishow close it is to my house,
yeah, sadly, how easy itis to get out right when the game's
over. I mean I'm home withinten fifteen minutes. Yeah. I was
talking to my neighbor yesterday. I'mlike, man, it dawned in me
that I hadn't been to the Socks. You know, it took the weekend

(05:40):
series from the Angels, thank god, because they were struggling at home.
But anyway, I said, youknow, I just dawned to me that
I hadn't been to a Socks gamein the stadium. I haven't been to
a Socks game, been to concertssince before the pandemic. I'm like,
we're going on fucking oh four yearsnow, right over four years. So
I'm like, I got to getback this year. I just love it.

(06:00):
I love Fenway, man, I'mgoing to get back on that.
But oh, speaking of sports,Pete, you found this story about the
NBA franchise that wanted to do somethingto help out their loyal fandom. Heather,
you know this basketball player. You'veseen this commercials. I'm sure he's
the he's the big TV Well,let me he's the big, tall dude,

(06:26):
build, goofy looking and he doesthe Goldfish Crackers commercials where he grabs
the bag and uses his hand asa bowl. Use a bowl this big
and his hands got like four knuckleson each finger. On the Rockets or
the Hawks. He's on the Rocketsnow Houston Rockets. Yeah, so anyway,
he's the opposing team. I forgetwhere they were playing. The Rockets
were playing. Maybe it was Dallas, the Mavericks or something. Anyway,

(06:49):
the opposing team if they missed twofree throws in a row. One player
misses two free throws in a row, everybody who has a ticket gets a
free chicken sandwich from Chick fil A. Okay, they're rooting for this guy
to miss. So this guy's atthe foul line, misses his first free
throw, the crowd starts winding upbecause they know if he misses another one,

(07:10):
he's gonna get only one stuff throughthe game, right, you can't.
It can't be like two guys missit. Everybody gets two sandwiches.
No, it's this once, allright, Yeah, but it's got to
be the opposing player missing two freethrows. Fans are getting excited here.
There might potentially be some freaking chickenif he misses a second free throw.
Man, free chicken on the board. So that's why the fans are getting
a little real frothy. Oh thepoint of teamson hold on file. The

(07:34):

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
