(00:00):
Boston's only class o'clock morning shows.Ending. Were you aware that thirty six
million years ago, penguins were anaverage of five feet tall. That's awesome
and they could fly. Wow,it's intriguing to me, but also horrifying
to think that there was five footpenguins walking around. You probably could outrun
them. Oh yeah, right,I don't know if you're out swimming them.

(00:23):
But no, no, you're notout swimming them. But you know
that little land mammal you could probablyoutrun. Wow, five foot tall penguins.
Oh shit, yeah, that's that'scrazy. That's taller than Danny DeVito
when he played the penguin m Youstopped to think about it. Did you
know that Caleb Williams, the newquarterback for the Chicago Bears number one overall
draft pick in July twenty four,once threw a ball so hard that the

(00:47):
guy catching it was wearing a weddingring and it's and it cut the ring.
The spin of the ball, thevelocity of the ball true split the
guy's wedding ring. Though you're gonnasay broke his hand. I mean,
I don't know how it didn't splitthe wedding or the guy to get his
wedding ring solder together. Wow.Yeah, you know. Last year it

(01:08):
was actually the wife's idea. Sheshe switched over to the silicone wedding ring.
Uh huh. You know I stillhave my original one. It's in
the box now. But I wasgetting this nasty like callous right underneath where
the ring was. It's the onlyjewelry I wear. But since she got
me the silicone job, Oh comfortfit baby, No callous is Oh no,

(01:29):
I go through phases of wear inthe wedding ring. I don't know.
I don't know why I took itoff, just throw it in the
bill drawer and that's where my wifewould find it, and then she puts
it in her jewelry box, andthen I really forget all about it.
Are you wearing it today? No? No, I go through the years
off your wedding band. Take itoff daily, yes, about to keep

(01:51):
it on my I put it onwhen I leave. Yeah, you wear
it every day? Yeah, Butbut neither of these are my original band.
This was to me after I almostdied with Bobby. So it was
pretty ring and I like it.I keep it on my right hand,
on my left hand. I boughtlike a cheap ninety one hundred dollars ten
carra golds. Just basic, yourbasic bitch wedding band that says hey,

(02:13):
I'm married. That says hey,I'm married. There's nothing to it.
It's just thin and the one thatI had when we got married. I
keep in the safe and it's notreal expensive, but I don't know where
else to keep it where I wouldn'tforget it, so it's next to the
bullets it. Yeah, I gotit, so I keep it there with
a necklace my husband gave me thathe was very proud of. That sucks

(02:36):
and I hate it. It's fuckingawful. I've told him that after he
wouldn't let me give it back.I said, can I trade this in
for something I would wear? Becauseyou spend a lot of money on this,
and he goes, no, Ireally like that I picked it out.
I'll never get back what I paid. And I go, well,
with something this like this, youprobably should have asked me because it's a
necklace. But it's not loose.It's a necklace that is kind of soft

(03:00):
most of your neck, and thenthe part that's in front it's hard and
it's a hard V shape. Solike it. If it turns on your
neck, it's sitting awkward on yourneck. Yeah, it doesn't lay right.
It's not an everyday necklace. Imean I wear a cross every day.
This is it's a soft little chainand it's just comfortable. And he

(03:20):
goes, why don't you wear it? I'm like, first of all,
it's sapphires and diamonds. No onejust wears a V shaped sapphire and diamond
necklace a time. Didn't buy youan amulet. It's kind of it's so
weird looking. But he was soupset, and it was the only time
he was upset that I didn't likesomething because I had almost like a violent
reaction to it. I'm like,what is this. I've had that experience

(03:43):
as a husband, you know,coming home with a tennis bracelet, simple
tennis bracelet, diamonds. Yeah,I think it was just fifteen hundred bucks
or something like that. And mywife didn't like it. Yeah, she
took it back and got something else. I've never bought her. She goes,
don't buy me jewelry because I havemy taste. But he's bought everything
else for me. These earrings,a simple diamond studs. He bought them
for me. This ring, hebought it for me. This crucifix,

(04:05):
he bought this. We bought itfor his mother. She gave it back
to us when she passed. Youknow what I mean. I was successful
in picking out diamond rings, butthat the ear rings, I should say,
yeah, but that was it.That's the extent of you know,
me buying jewelry for her. Ijust couldn't believe. He was so like
he was so already excited. Yeah, because he bought it his gift.
I was at her too. Yeah. I don't know. I just feel

(04:27):
like so so obvious on a woman'sneck, it should be something that she
liked, and it wasn't. Itwas so uncomfortable and it was almost a
choker. Yeah. Like it's likeliterally fucking like, you know the part
of a woman's neck that the softpart right here, it's the hard V
sat there. So it was like, yeah, a picture of this thing,

(04:49):
all I can think is still inthe safe. I'm not allowed to
get rid of it. You canpay for college, right oh. Like
it was probably like fifteen hundred andagain I had just almost died. He
bought me a ring, and thatturned out to be such a success beautiful.
Yeah, yeah, it turned outto be such a success. He
thought, well I'm winning, andso I got that, you know,

(05:10):
because I had spent another two weeksin the hospital, I mean total after
Bobby, I'd probably what six sevenweeks I've spent in hospitals, like in
emergency rooms. So every time Iwould come out, he would get me
something for a living. I justdidn't like that one. Yeah you made
it. Yeah, yeah, Imean I remember a couple of years ago,
the wife actually got us started onthe alternate wedding rings. So she

(05:35):
still has hers, but yeah,that's that's in a special place, in
a special box. But we weregoing on vacation and rather than put her
wedding band an engagement ring in thisyou know, the hotel room safe and
lock it up, she bought this. Like it's huge, it's like cubics
are clear, Like it's a fake, like a fake one. Yeah,
it's clearly fake. My mother doesthat. Yeah, Daddy can't afford that

(05:56):
big of a ring. But I'veactually heard people like comment on it to
her about like wow, that's abeautiful does every time she goes away she
puts her big fake ring on,like all of her jewelries because yeah,
you lose it, you know,if it in the ocean. Exactly.
I think my mom had two significantpieces of jewelry. One one was ivory.

(06:19):
It was a pendant you know forthe Yeah, for the shoulder bro
a broach. Yeah, I lovethem. And the other was well,
her diamond ring that she you know, got married with, which wasn't very
big, but it was still hers, right, And they would that my
parents would keep these. They didn'thave a safe for them. No,

(06:40):
they kept them in the kitchen tablethat's separated, you know, where the
leaf goes. There's like a littlebox brilliant there. That's where they kept
those two fine pieces of jewelry.Wow, which we found, Yeah,
which we found. But she didn't, did she. She was big on
fake jewelry, my mom. Shedidn't have jewelry is fun. Yeah,
my mother this costume jewelry. Yeah. Question. She has more than one

(07:02):
granddaughter, then, doesn't she.Yeah, she's got three three granddaughters.
That makes it more difficult. That'swhy Carol wrote down anything she was given
in her jewelry box for last yearthat she was available in her mind.
She wrote the name of the personwho gave it to her and wrapped it
in that so that when she passed, those envelopes went to the people except

(07:25):
for her wedding and engagement ring.I'm sure they went to but she had
three daughters. I don't know,I don't know where that was her wedding.
Well. I got my dad's weddingring, which was kind of weird
because my brother's older than me,but he didn't mind. Yeah, and
then my sister in law got thewedding ring. Oh yeah, and then
she'll pass it down to the daughters. To the daughters. Yeah, what

(07:47):
did Sam get? Sam got otherjewelry? Gotcha? Yeah, along with
a granddaughter. You have a costumejewelry, two pieces. So the brooch
or what the big fake for theclown jewelry? The clown jewelry? Hey,
quick follow up. I think Imentioned this last week and the happy

(08:07):
ending, that there was this Monacoauction that was going off this past weekend
about this very rare rolex. Rememberthere's only like twelve ever made and it
was supposed to be setting a record. Well, sure enough, when the
hammer dropped down this past weekend atthe Monaco Legend Group's auction housing, Thank

(08:31):
they also got the most expensive cheeseknife ever sold with it. Yeah it

a cheese cutter. I don't knowwhat the correlation was, zero connection unless
