Speaker 1 (00:00):
Wake Joe as Wake Up.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
And The Jamine Morning Show with DJ fourn It saws
a good morning.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
Cousin's number one for.

Speaker 4 (00:10):
Hip hop Jammin ninety four or five. Hi, everybody, good morning.
So it's funny that we're going to play this audio
right now. One time, forever and ever and ever ago,
I was in Nantucket and I was partying with Dave Portnoy,
I have. People can have their own experiences with people.
I have nothing but the best experience with Portnoy. He

(00:30):
was such a nice dude, just super cool and chill.
And at the time he mentioned his ex wife to
me and essentially said that they're still extremely close. And
I think at that time they had they were still
sharing that home in Nantucket. He would have it at
a certain time and she would have it at a
different time. Like spoke very very highly of her, and

(00:53):
just that she was around from like the very beginning
of Barstool, right before it was on like the cusp
of blowing up. This audio of him talking to Shannon
Sharp one viral because people could not believe that Dave
Portnoy does this with his ex wife.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Is it true your ex wife have access to you
make the count yeah, I told you I trust her implicitly.
I beg your pardon implicitly. I trust her. If she
wanted to take it, she could.

Speaker 5 (01:16):
There's very few people that you meet where you can
trust implicitly and to be honest. She was there when
we were living at the in law's house. She was
there when we couldn't afford a hamburger. She was there
through the grind. She to me, just like we kind
of separated when we started making it, so she doesn't
get to enjoy any of that.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
To me, that's not right. Wow, I'm a loyalty guy.
You are a boy your you love the saw for real?

Speaker 4 (01:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:40):
I don't know too many people too.

Speaker 5 (01:42):
It surprises people. But she gonna if she want to
do something with it. She could have done that long
time ago.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
If your ex wife is she married, she's dating somebody boyfriend.
Are you cool with that? I want to be happy,
it's true. But then she got she can't get in
the wag faith day. She got a gotta cut off
cut it, cut off, cut alot. I won't even notice
if it's gone.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
You made it.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Tell me she might?

Speaker 6 (02:00):
She might?

Speaker 2 (02:01):
I mean, if she takes it all. No, no, no, no,
but she might take like, you know what, I'm gonna
have this.

Speaker 7 (02:05):
I'm gonna have this extravagant wedding almost been, you know,
half a million on a wedding.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
You cool it? Yes?

Speaker 4 (02:12):
That No, he's not. I'm telling you. When I hung
out with him again, this was years ago. I can't
even think what year. This was years and years and
years ago. We were partying in Nantucket and she came
up and, like I said, spoke nothing but just amazing
things about her. And I said, at that time they
were like sharing the home in Nantucket. She would have
it at a certain time and he would have it.

(02:32):
But same thing, like, same vibe, just.

Speaker 7 (02:36):
That she they must have the Bank of America account
they had back then with no dollars in it. It's
got to have like just a couple of times.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
But I don't think she's taking money, like money out
like that. I think hypothetically if she would have taken that,
he'd be fine with it. But she has access to
her and think, you know, she's respected.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
I don't think she's taking any money out. That's kind
of the vibe.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
I stop.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
But that he's saying if she wanted to, she could
and let me just also addify her, I would a
little purse here and there. He's yeah, little, but he
even said I wouldn't even notice.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah you got money.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
And I really feel like the way he's talking leads
me to believe that she is a fundamental part of
why barstool is the way it is, and so he
wants to give her if that access.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Baring whatever situation we got divorce on if we could
wind up in a situation like this, I'd be founded
because when it comes to money and finances, I trust
my wife so much.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Do they got.

Speaker 4 (03:30):
Kids, you're a special you don't have any say over
the finances. Well already you're actually you're actually you're in this.
He's doing a seven for twenty five.

Speaker 8 (03:50):
Dave.

Speaker 4 (03:50):
You know, but you're a connoisseur of finances. You don't
run your own.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
But that was my whole point though, because she does
the financing. If we got divorce, I feel like I've
grown up. That's so I need to have her there.

Speaker 7 (04:01):
I feel your situation is different because you got children,
Like I could see something like that being worked out
with me and being like a cool, what kind of
financing the children's you know, college, whatever it is. Right,
But do they got kids. I don't think they have children.
Do Yeah, So it's either they got some kind of
business together where they're sharing an account. He's not telling
the full story. Ain't no way. This dude is just like,
oh nah, we'll not together. No, he hate that account

(04:23):
and I'm cool. Nothing to type out live like he's not.

Speaker 4 (04:26):
Because you know, he'll say things that get him in
so much trouble.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
I don't think the main account he's sharing now he
never said was the main You're right.

Speaker 7 (04:36):
A little rinky dinky like you know, Bank of America
from back in the day when he was broke.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Cool, keep that because I don't even care.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
But by the way, we don't know. She might still
make some sort of royalties or whatever from barstool, from
whatever perch she was to it in the beginning, and
maybe that is, like, maybe some of that money literally
is her.

Speaker 7 (04:54):
He does sound like he probably is, you know, like
the way people put executive producers on albums just so
they can make some money. He sounds like he might
be given a layups like that, which is cool if
you're like, yo, you was with me from the bottom
and you came up.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
But not giving millions.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
I also think it all depends on the way you
break up. They clearly had a breakup, that they were cool,
because like, I have friends going through breakups right now
and they can't even be in the same room as
each other. So I think they clearly ended amicably. Maybe
whatever happened happened between them and they were still so
cool that he was like, oh yeah, I mean, because
that is a one in a million situation.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
What's the saying that you always say the person you
marry is not the person you divorced.

Speaker 4 (05:34):
Yes, my friend told me that that's going through a divorce.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
All depends on how the divorce goes about. If they're
cheating or something like that, then it's a different story.
But if you break up on good terms, and then
I can see.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
No good term in the world.

Speaker 7 (05:47):
There's not good term that would allow me to have
my millions of dollars shared with somebody who's out here.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
Dayton without a kid, without a kid, without.

Speaker 7 (05:58):
A child, if we have a business that about. I understand.
That's what I'm saying. There's got to be some deep
put to this. He just couldn't have woke up and
just but like, nah.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
You know he must genuinely feel like the success of
barstool is partly he.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Talks about it. They were living at the in laws
and can't afford anything.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
So slid a little whatever every month.

Speaker 7 (06:15):
Every month, I'm going to deposit five thousand dollars into
your bank account. You helped me out when I was
down so bad. But for you to have access to
all my money to do whatever you want with.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
Hell, no, he capping. He capping, like hurt by this
because this is insanity. It is insane.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
At the same time, you hear these stories about bezos
get like giving his wife seventy eight billion dollars and
then which.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
More I did not want to do. I know he
didn't want to time. I think I've heard him say that.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
It's actually like, listen, she was there from the beginning,
so she deserves as like as much as this as
I do.

Speaker 7 (06:46):
So what do you expect Bezios to come out on
the news and be like, I hate that I don't
give them seven billion.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
He's not gonna say that. Well, he's not gonna say it.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
At the same time, there are people out there who
believe like this, and I don't think it's a bad thing.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
I know, bro, I can't do it.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
Just more so, just that these ladies caught caught the
big fish before, you know, like Bill Davis's wife, That's
what I'm saying, because she was yeah, and they stayed.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
And Jay's wife got paid off because he was cheating
all the time. She walked with one hundred and seventy
nine million and some change.

Speaker 7 (07:20):
Actually, you really are letting your ex hold access to
your millions of dollars.

Speaker 4 (07:24):
No, I'm not, but I listen. I did say I
think it's different if kids are involved. We have to
kind of like figure that out now. I again, even
if we're amicable, if we don't have a certain business together,
it's a little There's just just different scenarios obviously.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
Get the only ones is kids business. We got tied
up in some things and we're cool. I'm not saying
that they hate each other, but hey, we're going to
continue with our T shirt brand business and we're still
going to keep our money together in that aspect. But
I'm taking some of my money and putting it out person,
which is rich already.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
You feel me.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
It is crazy though, So you guys two accounts, have
a mortgage, have all these kids in.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
Name and no joint.

Speaker 9 (08:09):
There's so many things happening, things going on.

Speaker 4 (08:13):
Don't no, no, no, okay, last name turn into this?
How did this turn into this? I'm changing my last
name though, and I am twenty twenty six. Okayly no,
I'm serious because now I'm I'm double sow Shure, I don't.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
I'm it's actually in them in morning show with d
J Foreign and Sauty and.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
It's time for another DM dilemma.

Speaker 4 (08:47):
Hi, everybody, the d ms are blowing up this week.
You guys are going through it, but that's okay. We're
here to help, as I always say, if you're going
through something, sometimes it's hard to go to family and
friends because they know everybody you know involved and they
kind of can't separate themselves. So we're we're here to
do that for us six one seven, nine three one
one nine four five. If you want to help her out,

(09:09):
Anonymous wrote me a DM, I'm at Ashley Feldman. Twoe's
on the Ashley if you two are going through something,
She said, I've been with my boyfriend for twelve years.
We have three beautiful children, two houses, in the process
of buying our forever home. We love our family. I
love the family we've created. I love this man with

(09:29):
all my heart. However, we are not married, not even engaged.
Well that that we weren't. I've always been vocal about
how important marriage is for me. Every time we talk
about it, he always tells me he wants to marry me,
but there's always a reason why it has not happened.
Issues in the relationship, finances, et cetera. Every reason why
not and never why yes. I told him that he
had tell our twelve year anniversary to decide and propose

(09:51):
or else he just has to let me go, no fights,
no arguments, simply let me go find what I want.
If he is not, he again reassured me that he
was work on it, and he realizes that it's taken
too long. Our twelve year anniversary came in May and
no ring, and I was so ready to walk out.
Fast forward boom June, he proposes. Now I'm feeling like, damn,

(10:13):
it took too long to get here. Now I'm not
sure if I actually want it. He is so invested.
He is so invested in this I'm talking about. He
has found us venues, He's scheduling calls with wedding planners
and everything.

Speaker 9 (10:29):
Listen, it's clear that it took way too long.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
Ther she's here with me on this if we have
any follow up.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Took a long time to get here, and clearly he
didn't want to get married for whatever reasons, and it
was but then he finally did it, and he's invested
and he's looking for places now you don't want She
never wanted too much?

Speaker 4 (10:48):
Is he only doing it because she gave him the timeline?

Speaker 7 (10:53):
He's doing it because she threatened to walk out? But
I think she was bluffing the whole time because now
she's the one with cooldfeet about it. She's stuck around
for twelve twelve years? Like, what new start are you
doing after twelve? I don't know how old she is.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
He didn't even do it at twelve. He did it
at twelve in.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
A month, you know what I mean?

Speaker 7 (11:08):
But you've been with this guy for talk about two years,
three years, five years?

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Twelve?

Speaker 7 (11:14):
What new life are you going to start after twelve? Possible?
Right to fine, love, bro, that's a lot of your
chunk of life gone, bro.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
But could it be a situation where like, hey, she
not forced him in to this, but she kind of did.
And then he's like, you know what, I realized I
was missing out. This is a good experience and I'm
going to change you know what.

Speaker 4 (11:30):
I think why she gets like that, that would never
make me feel good.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
No, it would is.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
I would never feel good if I had to say, hey,
we've been together for eleven years now, once we hit twelve,
if you don't propose me, I'm out me neither. Anytime
the proposal comes, it's not going to feel like it's
genuine to me. But I'm kind of with you for him,
Now what because twelve years is a long time, there's
three kids, there's properties involved, if you like. In the

(11:56):
beginning of this she does, she does say like I
love our family and I love life we've created. I
love this man with all my heart. If you love
the man with all your heart, then.

Speaker 7 (12:05):
What does it matter that y'all get married. Aside from that,
she's not saying that he's a cheetoh he does this
or does that. They are happy. She just wants marriage,
and that's wild to me that when he does decide, Okay, cool,
it's been twelve years. You've been nagging me. Heah, go
doing it, which I'm with you. Actually, he's doing it
because you want them marriage. He's not doing it because
he wants to get married to you.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
Not saying that he's gonna feel disingenuine thank you.

Speaker 7 (12:27):
And it's not that he don't love you. Maybe he
just doesn't believe in marriage. I don't know. But now
the other one with kofee, the other one saying, oh,
I don't know, not if I want to go through
with it.

Speaker 4 (12:35):
What she wants me to tell you guys that she's
thirty three, so she is the younger she.

Speaker 7 (12:40):
Is, which means you guys were together since she would Yo,
that's a long time, long time, that's what I'm saying.
Twelve years and you're willing to walk away.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
Over twenty since like they were like twenty the ring that.

Speaker 7 (12:49):
You got that like you were looking for and she
got it. Now she's called feet, which means she was
never leaving anyway. He called your bluff and you folded
or is she the.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Problem in this whole thing? And he don't want to
get married to her and he was dragging his feet
because of something that she was doing.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
There's old three sides still story.

Speaker 4 (13:06):
Well, I am just gonna get this out of the
way I'm out. I'm asking her to see the ring.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
It can't I don't know.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
I want to see it.

Speaker 9 (13:12):
But after twelve you should have a rock.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Because remember at one point you said I can't do
it because of finances. Okay, well now let me see
them ring.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
Twelve years.

Speaker 7 (13:20):
Twelve years you should have bailed the year three, but
also four or five, six, But even that you could
have been like twenty four to twenty five at that.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
I want to know how old he is?

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Two? I mean, yeah, that's that's a good question.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
Yeah, because I mean thirty three is on the it's
not young enough where you can't, but it's still it's
not going to start over.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
Yeah, you can start over at any age.

Speaker 7 (13:42):
We know people look at look at these actors having
babies at eighty like you could. You could really start
over at any age.

Speaker 4 (13:48):
Look at Bill Belichick.

Speaker 7 (13:49):
You have built life with somebody for twelve years, and
now you want to say, nah, I'm done with it
because I don't got a ring.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
That doesn't even sound logical too.

Speaker 9 (13:58):
I mean the ring's not. Yeah, it's a nice ring.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
I just I know the way I am as a person,
and I just don't think I could get over a
threatened proposal.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
I agree, that's not like.

Speaker 4 (14:13):
Like, why did it take him so long? Like giving it?
By the way, she really said twelve years and he
said okay, like and he really waited. He didn't before
then say okay, what am I waiting?

Speaker 2 (14:24):
Thank you?

Speaker 7 (14:25):
That's a that's a perfect point. Why am I damn
this woman really wants this? Why am I waiting another
two three years?

Speaker 4 (14:30):
Yeah? Absolutely, And now he's like, I did it. So
let's find a venue.

Speaker 7 (14:33):
That's gonna be happy though like this, I mean, does
he take care of the household? Three? All great? If
they're at this point.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
I'm asking, are you happy? And has he ever cheated?
In the meantime, let's go to the phone six one seven,
nine three one one four five. If the proposal comes
in ultimatum form, like after twelve we propose, or.

Speaker 9 (14:56):
I'm leaving, I'm gonna lie to lose.

Speaker 4 (15:00):
Hi, everybody, good morning, we're helping Anonymous out. She sent
me a DM. Basically she's been with her man for
twelve years. They have three kids, multiple properties, are in business.
I'm finding their forever home right now. And she basically
said I had to give him an ultimatum at the
twelve year mark, if you don't propose to me, I'm
walking away. No questions, asked like, I can't do this.

(15:22):
So they hit their twelve he doesn't ask. But the
next month, this month, he did in fact propose, and
she said she can't help but feel a type of
way about it. She said, you know, it feels weird
that this is what it took. But she said, he's
super gung ho about it. Now he is looking at venues,
he's calling wedding planners like he's ready, and now she

(15:44):
feels like she's the one with cold feet. I asked her,
you know, because she's listening. I said, is there anything
else you want to add in? She said, we really
do work well together. I have a great job, he
does too. We both pay for our expenses. I'm happy,
but I can't help but feel embarrassed that this is
what it took to get here. Part of me feels
like I shouldn't be happy about it because of what
it took to get here.

Speaker 9 (16:03):
Which I understand.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
Yeah, but at the same time, you're gonna throw it all,
like all away based off.

Speaker 7 (16:08):
That, and I feel like she's doing it for other people.
She's probably walking around being like, damn girl, how comes
you been with this guy for twelve years and y'all
ain't married. Don't worry about other people's opinion.

Speaker 4 (16:17):
Think about when people call here and they're like, yeah,
I've been together for my boyfriend for ten years. We're
like your boyfriend for ten yes.

Speaker 7 (16:25):
But finally he's gonna be the husband, And yeah, y'all
live in the married life already.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
There's just no paper in between you. That's it.

Speaker 4 (16:32):
Joy is in Boston.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
Joy.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Is it weird that she had a threatened for the
proposal then got it? Is it worth walking away?

Speaker 6 (16:41):
Julie? Is this for me?

Speaker 2 (16:44):
Shows?

Speaker 4 (16:45):
Sorry?

Speaker 6 (16:45):
Julie, Okay, So my name is Julie. So I just
have a couple of things. So I just feel like,
if you guys been together for twelve years, you guys
are happy. There's no need to beg for a pup.
Yet he did do it, So I feel like you
should just suck it up now and get married.

Speaker 10 (17:06):
Even though a.

Speaker 6 (17:07):
Piece of paper is not going to change anything. If
you guys are.

Speaker 11 (17:09):
Happy, you're happy. Being married doesn't change not a damn thing.
I'm sorry I'm saying, but it doesn't change anything. It
literally people think that you need to get married because
you have kids, or I just feel like because she
said basically, you know, pooper, get off the pot, she
needs to actually follow through with it now since her

(17:31):
husband's all gun held for it.

Speaker 4 (17:33):
Yeah, he's like, he's ready. I just asked her, toys
duly damn thanks for the call. I just asked her.
I was like, you know, just think of a time
last year when you said to him, hey, you should propose.
Like what was his response? Because I want to know
if you know, if every year she was saying to him,
when's my ring coming? What his answer was to that?
But I mean, listen, it wouldn't make me feel good

(17:53):
by any means. If I was like, either do it
or I'm leaving in a and he again, he waited
till the last poss moment. It's not like he surprised
her a couple months before.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
But I still go back to it. But he did
it though, and he's willing he did.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
Ashley is in lann High, ash Good morning, Hi, good
warning do you when you hear this twelve years If
you don't give me a ring, I'm walking three kids
properties But it's okay, I'm going to walk away, what
do you what do you think?

Speaker 6 (18:21):
Right?

Speaker 12 (18:22):
So when you're talking through this, I mean you guys
kind of hit on like a sensitivity here, Like if
they're that sit together that long, they have kids involved,
they're saying they're happy, and if deep down she really
doesn't know why he's not proposing, and it takes this
ultimatum for her to be like, why won't this guy
marry me? Maybe the reassurance that he actually did go

(18:42):
through with it and propose and is all gung ho
for it is kind of that thing she was looking
for and not necessarily maybe wanting to get married herself,
doesn't need to make that step, just needed to know
that he would do it.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
Yeah, and maybe if we if we can try to
like reshift our mindset on it and look at it
that through that lens, then yes, I think that makes
it a little bit more positive. But I'm just I'm
stock light, really twelve years that what was happening? What's
going on?

Speaker 12 (19:12):
Yeah, that's a conversation that needs to happen.

Speaker 4 (19:14):
Yes, why we need answers, We need answers. I just
said to her, I told you, guys, I asked what
would he say when you would ask what the proposal.
He was just agreeing with me over and over that
it took too long, but he never had a singular
doubt about it. I don't know.

Speaker 7 (19:31):
I think it's meant to be together. Maybe he just
then communicate that he doesn't want to be married. I'm
that way. My next person, whoever, my forever person is,
I have no interest in marrying them. I say that now.
You never know what might happen in the future, but
I'm not interested in marriage. I have my forever person. Well,
we'll walk into the sunset together and all of that,
but I'm not sitting around being like, oh, let's go

(19:52):
to the thing and let's have a big hoop.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
Nah, we're not doing that.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
Imagine she tells him that the wedding is off. He's ina,
thank god, that's gonna hurt.

Speaker 4 (20:01):
That's why I waited so long. No, she's still listening,
and she said, guys, he loves me and he reassures
me of that every day. Like we're we want to
get a little judgment from the outside, But what does
that really matter? What does that really matter? The kids
love him, You love him. He's a good dad. It
might have taken a little a lot too long. But

(20:23):
AJ chimed in when we were playing some music and
she goes, please tell this woman that if she is happy,
to stay because dating is scary. So there you heard it, Anonymous.
AJ says, if you're even the slightest bit happy.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
Don't run. Oh my gosh, sash in the Morning Show
with DJ four and it's Satic Morning.

Speaker 4 (20:48):
Bustin's number one for hip hop jam In ninety four
or five. Hi, everybody the morning, It's Ashley in the
jam In Morning Show. Behind the scenes, I was working
on and trying to set up this conversation. I don't
want to get ahead of myself because I want Eric
to be able to kind of talk about this son.

(21:09):
But Eric Olsen is joining us. Eric is the head
of the Sydney Olsen Rainbow Fund. Hi, Eric, good morning,
Thank you for coming on the show.

Speaker 10 (21:23):
Hey, I see good morning.

Speaker 4 (21:25):
Good morning. So talk to everybody about the Sidney Olsen
Rainbow Fund. And you know, I was going I was
gonna intro it, but I feel like it would be
better coming from you. And I know you guys have
an event coming up, so let's talk about just the
fund in general.

Speaker 10 (21:41):
Yeah. So the fund was started after our five year
old daughter, Sidney was tragically killed in a crash here
in Andover. She was hit by a truck in a crosswalk,
and you know, in that moment, we kind of woke
up to this reality that there's a hidden danger there
in plane sight with traffic violence in our country and

(22:03):
in fact the number one killer of kids this age, unfortunately,
and so we've been fighting since then. Our mission is
to make every community in Massachusetts a safe place for
kids like sid to walk, bike and roll. And so
that's where our work is focused. And we've got a
big event coming up in August that's going to help
us do some fundraising and raise awareness.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
First and foremost, I'm so sorry for your loss. And
when I had told Santi, you know that you were
going to join us, he was like, oh my god,
I remember that, especially because you know it's so local,
right up the street here in Andover. I you know,
as a parent, I just want to say, I'm getting choked.
I've eve been saying this. I can't imagine how hard
every single day is for you, and I'm sure doing

(22:43):
something like this helps you kind of heal.

Speaker 10 (22:46):
At the same time, it does unfortunately, what we've learned
is we're tragically not alone, and so we've one of
the things we're focused on is is supporting other families
to go through it across the state of Massachusetts and
providing support for them and also helping them get connected
to advocacy and important causes like the automated enforcement rule
that we're putting in place now.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
And I know there's a story behind you calling it
the Rainbow Fund.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
It is.

Speaker 10 (23:12):
Yeah, So you know, since fifth birthdays, she want a
purple birthday party forever and then at the last minute
she said, Daddy, I want a rainbow birthday party because
it includes all the favorite colors of my friends and family.
And so she was just all about kind of pulling
people together. And that's what really her spirit has become.
It's about creating community. And you know, with traffic violence,
it not only causes pain like this, but also it

(23:34):
gets in the way of healthy communities. And so that's
what we're focused on, is continuing her spirit through that work.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
What's something else that we can do as a public
because I think for most of us we think just
of the crosswalks or the lights. Are we missing like
anything else? Because it sounds like there's a lot more
that we could all be doing as a whole.

Speaker 6 (23:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (23:52):
Well, the big thing I've learned is that the technology
solutions that could have prevented death like this exist and
so as a public really we can lea into some
of the legislation that's being proposed. So there's there's a
bill that is proposing to expand technologies on trucks, in
particular in Massachusetts, and so it's things like a simple

(24:12):
set of cross view mirrors could have saved her life.
But also you know, backup cameras and things like that,
So get involved look at the bills that are in
the legislation. There's another important one coming up around automated enforcements,
so things like speed cameras which have been shown to
reduce death and fatalities by significant, significant amount. So talk
to your local legislature slators and get them involved.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
Eric, what are the details surrounding the walk? How do
people become a part of it? You know, where where
can they go to see? I know you guys have
an Instagram account, things like that kind of give out
that information for everybody.

Speaker 8 (24:46):
Sure.

Speaker 10 (24:46):
Yeah, so we're having a big event. It's August thirtieth,
here and andover everyone's invited from all around the area.
It's ten to We're going to start the walk in
Elm Square. The party is in the park, which is
right in the middle of Andover. It's divide Zebo and
so if people and come to our website, it's the
Rainbow Dot Fund. So the Rainbow Dot Fund, all the
information is there. You can follow us on Instagram. That's

(25:07):
at Sydney's Rainbows. It's our sort of band of great
people were looking to live Sydney spirit out in the world. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:13):
And by the way, just to cut you off, I'm
going to make sure that that you guys that listeners
everybody can find that on our Instagram. I'll make sure
to put up your guys Instagram a handle on our
show page because a lot of people follow that and
that you guys can find you a little bit easier there.

Speaker 10 (25:29):
But go on, yeah, sign up, sign up for the walk.
So we're going to kick it off at a walk.
And I don't know if you guys have ever been
in New Orleans and seen these second Line parades they
have down there.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
Oh, many a time, many a time.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah, they're walking.

Speaker 10 (25:42):
Through New Orleans and all of a sudden, like you know,
it's like two in the afternoon Tuesday, and there's a
parade marching down. So that's it's It's not just your
average Studo memorial walk. We want. We've got a jazz
band that's going to lead us out. It's going to
be a super fun walk and roll with loud music
and rainbows and so it's going to be a big
family celebration. So we want everyone to come down. And Kenny,
I'm on the thirtieth.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
I love it, you know again, I just hearing you
talk about this like I keep it just as a parent.
It's hard and it gets me emotional. And again I think,
you know, you guys doing this is amazing and it
and it keeps her spirit alive for sure. So again
I'm so sorry for you loss, but I think if
you guys can make it out, this is an amazing thing.

(26:23):
You know, all the colors everybody where, all the colors
on the thirtieth. Again, you guys can be followed at
Sydney s I d N e Y S Underscore, Rainbows. Eric,
is there anything else you know we want to add
in here before we wrap up.

Speaker 10 (26:41):
No, but I love what you hit there. So every
day we not only are we celebrating Sydney in her spirit,
but she's actually her spirits contributing to the work. I
want everyone to see that. And I think it's not
just for kids. This is for adult stop. We got
a beer garden, we got a lot of fun music,
so it's going to be a really fun day and
we just more than anything, it's nothing else that just
come out and celebrate her. We would love that.

Speaker 4 (27:01):

Oh it's like heartbreaking as a parent, it's really hard
not to imagine what that must have been like for him.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
I it makes me like want to slap myself when
I think about, like me complaining about how hard it
is with all of the things and going to these
parks and stuff, and it's like I can do that,
you know, And it makes me It puts things into perspective,
It really does.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
In the strength it takes a turn around and kind
of do something like this that's empowerful. That's powerful for him,
that's amazing.

he sends me a photo of a man on the
side of the street, and then just like the cop.

to know I'm really happy for you because I know
that that brought you a ton of joy. He goes,
he must have been hammered. He was stumbling into the road.
And man, let me tell you, it felt so good.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
You know, those people out there when they call the
police get like awkward, like comfortable.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
I've never done it, but i'd be so fearful.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
I am so confident, and I know the like language
back and forth and everything like that. It's super clear.
I mean it was, It's on point. But this guy
was stumbling in and out of the road, trying to
fly people down. I think he was looking for a ride,
but I think he was really drunk. Mike, turn was
to one he was gonna get hit by a car,
But the bigger was that he was going to walk
out my driveway and come visit time.

Speaker 4 (33:06):
You didn't care about what happened, that he was gonna.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Care about his well being, That this drunk guy out
my neighbors.

Speaker 9 (33:13):
Yeah, and I could tell he wasn't from the town.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
So I'm like, I called, he wandered the wrong way.
Tell you, the police showed up in a minute, squad cars.
They're not busy at all, but they arrested him.

Speaker 9 (33:29):
So they arrested him even like they did of course
just say hey, go on life. No, there's no sidewalks
like you can keep walking.

Speaker 7 (33:38):
You couldn't offer him a ride. You couldn't tell me
come get sober. You me, yes, you just.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
Know job, I would be afraid to do that.

Speaker 9 (33:49):
Yeah, he got a ride a little bit.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Yeah, and he got to blow in this cool little too. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (33:58):
That was awesome.

Speaker 4 (33:58):
Sick. The best is the photo that you said it
looked like Loki, you were like hiding in the brush
to be nosy my driveway.

Speaker 9 (34:05):
That's exactly.

Speaker 4 (34:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
I was peeking through like just the brush and I
got him. But yeah, I mean the guy was crazy.
The guy with the guy had issues. Was he saying things,
He was yelling at cars, he was flagging them down.
He could have died and he could have came to
my house. So yeah, we'll go fine. He got his help.

Speaker 7 (34:19):
Imagine he was a diabetic broh, and he was going
through an episode because you know they do present as drunk.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
All right, Well, I don't know what to say.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
You don't care.

Speaker 9 (34:31):
Yeah, I should have had a little patch.

Speaker 4 (34:33):
That's what happened in a little nas X.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
Into it.

Speaker 9 (34:37):
But I felt really.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Happy for you, man, because I know, because I know
that there's only a few things in life that bring
you such great joy. One of them is being able
to call nine one one.

Speaker 9 (34:46):
But you guess have never called the police ever? Ever?

Speaker 4 (34:48):
Once?

Speaker 7 (34:48):
I mean I've called the cops. Yeah, probably the same
thing if I see a drunk drive. Yeah, you just
you know, you either mind your business or you talk
to people off the leg.

Speaker 3 (34:58):
Don't mind my business, he tell the police, especially in
the dangers they're going to walk off your driveway. Bro
you wouldn't have made it up that my life driveway
to the crib like this is too high.

Speaker 4 (35:11):
I'm really trying to think if I've ever I don't
think I ever have. I I would do everything to
avoid having to call it. Especially you didn't call nine
to one one? Did you called like the other line?

Speaker 3 (35:21):
He called no one?

Speaker 9 (35:24):

of cars. I think he's hammered. I think you guys
need to get down there, like right now. Oh my god.
They hung up.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
They were like these people, I tell them to state
their emergency. That's what I get.

Speaker 7 (35:40):

call to really hit him, like laughing over his.
