Speaker 1 (00:00):
Especially in the morning show when you need to know.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
No, we got you three things you need to know
on Bustin's number one for hip hop and the best
throwbags you haven't any more.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Five.

Speaker 4 (00:12):
My dad literally texts me this morning Friday, jan sixteen,
and he's like, what's the energy? Like, how does it
feel to be in New England? Because guess what is
a Cleveland fan? I'll never know, most likely while I'm
on this earth. And I said, it's exciting. A lot
of pats gear out and about Sunday is the game.
Everybody's talking about it. There's really not much else going on.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
I heard the cheapest ticket is going for three hundred bucks.
That's like the nosebleed. Just take it in the building.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
Three hundred for news week. That's actually not the bat.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
Gem not that bad. Next week it's probably gonna go up.
But I'm not paying three hundred alls to sit way
up there in the cold.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Not in that weather. No. And then the weather is
the big, the big thing. It's like, Hey, I would
love to go to the game, but I'm not sitting
out in like a snowy mixture.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Yeah, no, good because you're going to be cold and wedding.
That's not fun.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
Yeah, I'll be inside a bar in Marshfield drink him.
Three pm is the kick, which I like because it
could be an early night. Even Ben Affleck is in
on the hype.

Speaker 5 (01:09):
I mean, it's like a miracle. How do you get
another really good quarter? It's uh, this is one of
those things where you think, like this is just good fortune.
It wasn't I thought it'd be. I thought i'd be
dead before I had another great football team.

Speaker 6 (01:19):
Well, also, like our childhood was spent like just I
mean the Pats were Jim Plunket the way they're set
up for the future, Like we're Drake May is twenty
three years old. They said, we've got all this caps.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
We've got Like every time you see the guy with
this kid, he's in high school baby.

Speaker 5 (01:35):
I mean people are like, no, Dad, you're just old.

Speaker 4 (01:40):
I just want to make it clear. Would leave my
family for pet half Like, I don't know what he's
talking about it he's just old. Bye Bye. It's been
some million's. Marfield was so fun. Listen, every time I
see Drake May, I think the exact exact same thing.
He literally looks like a high school baby. But it's
great for us.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
It definitely is, because we're going to have him for
a long time and hopefully you can continues to get better.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Listen, the point of three things you need to know
is so that way, if you're walking in on a
conversation at work, at home, whatever, you're like just a
tad bit knowledgeable on what people are chatting about. That's
literally the goal of us doing this. So I'm just
gonna give you one line. Guys, people are talking about
the Pats Texans, just be like, Texans defense is looking good. Yeah,
it's looking good. It's going to be a tough game,

(02:22):
and people, wow, she knows what she's taking all talking
about the Texans defense. I got you three PM, Like
I said, fingers crossed, because what's better than playoff football?

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Nothing?

Speaker 4 (02:37):
All right, let's talk Ludacris and Nelly. They're getting ready
to perform at the twenty twenty six Rock the Country
Music Festival and come to find out, people aren't happy.
Why so, Kid Rock and Jason Aldean are tied in,
which means that it has a Trump tie in because

(02:59):
we know that Kid.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Rock and Jacob Donald Trump.

Speaker 4 (03:03):
Yes, so, in turn, because Ludacris and Nelly want to
do a music festival and most likely just get a
paycheck and make money. People are mad that they're doing
something alongside those two.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Can't we just accept the fact that there are multi
there are two political parties basically, and then it's okay
to vote for whoever you want, clearly, and can we
just leave that at home and go joy some music.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
It's like, guys, just right, like, just go to the
music festival, have a good time, or hey, hey don't
go to the music Yes, that's another really easy buy
the ticket.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
You don't always have to be like be putting people
in positions to like fly their political flags, right. It's
it's just uncomfortable. And the moment you start saying things, oh,
then that must mean your x y Z, like that's
unfair to everybody, Like so what?

Speaker 4 (03:48):
And it's just like a very weird thing because it's like,
you don't want to go to this music festival because
Kid Rock is there and he voted for Donald Trump. Okay,
but do you listen to r Kelly? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Right, where are we drawing a line here? Right? Not
exactly you accept that, but not somebody else's political weird.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
It's very weird. But the world is. It's in a
weird place, it really is. So I hope for these
people that are so mad at this, they just don't go.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Like, I accept yours and you except mine.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
Absolutely, it's your person. I don't care you don't want
to take a vaccine. I'm sorry you want to take
a I know you do. That was offensive to you.
It's like, I'm still I'm still going where you're going, buddy.
You know that, all right? And elastly Haley Bieber and
Justin Bieber are on a war path, and honestly, I'm

(04:38):
with them. I think celebrities are now at the point
where they're just like, if you are going to make
bold face lies about us on the internet, we are
just going to sue you. We're just going to hit
you with the cease and assist. And that's exactly what
they did. There's a TikToker by the name of Julie Tice,
and Julie basically has been posting saying that Justin Haley
have an abusive relationship. She can tell by the way

(04:59):
they stand and and the way they act in videos,
and she said it's from a drug addiction. And the
Beibers are like this is highly damaging. We don't appreciate it,
and we're just not settling for it anymore. And the
lawyers fired out a cease and assist letter and basically
are saying, listen, you fabricated the story, you made it up.

(05:20):
These are outrageous, false, fabricated, and defamatory and you need
to stop.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Yeah. I wonder if it's a way around it, because listen,
I haven't done it for them, but I've definitely looked
at celebrity couples and I'm been like, hey, they just
give me the feeling like XYZ is happening. Maybe that's
a wrong thing, but I think.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
We all do it. But to make a whole video
about it and call somebody saying like, this woman's being
abused like a little crazy. If you don't have.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Receipts for that, the abuse for it definitely brings it
to a whole new level.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
It's like going online and posting a video saying that
someone's kid is bad.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
I did that. I not gonna assume me. I'm wait,
but this proof though that that kid he was misbehaving.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Okay, don't you have a friend who had one little
video where the kid did something bad? Does that mean
that kid is bad? No, she had a bad moment.
True true, Wow, Okay, that street thing you need to
know For Friday, jan sixteen, We're closed Bay. We're gonna
put it a dent in your Demian deleted, but one
thousand dollars will put a dent in it. So listen

(06:22):
at nine am a shot at one thousand dollars on
the app, or just go to Jami ninety four five Door.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Morning Show, Good Morning, Bustin's number one for hip hop
jamming ninety four or five.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
Hi, everybody, good morning. When somebody says something to you
or makes a comment and your immediate comeback is like,
shut up your ugly. You must have said something so
diabolical that they were like, you know what, We're actually
gonna go there because I think it's so crazy when
I see that online when people will be like, you're

(06:57):
too ugly to say that?

Speaker 7 (06:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (06:58):
What like they either go to that or make a
common a person or wait, yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
Yep, couldn't agree more like.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
Not like not, And that also means you don't have
a counter to their point too. We're just gonna you know,
you're just gonna cut them as deep as possible.

Speaker 4 (07:14):
There's a girl that works in Boston radio or her
name is Courtney Cox. She works on the Greg Hill Show. Stunning. Okay,
she's pregnant. She's like glowing, very pretty girl. Not that
that matters, it doesn't for the conversation, but she was
getting responses of like, shut up, you're ugly. You can't
say that. She posted yesterday and she goes, I said

(07:35):
this on the show. I didn't know this was going
to be so controversial. And I love this kind of
stuff because how many I mean, we just said, hey,
if you want to go to a music conter, go
to it, and we're getting hate, like people get mad
at us, like, you know, you never know AnyWho. She
said that if a guy is thirty eight years old
and has a roommate, that's a red flag, like you

(07:55):
can't be thirty eight years old, damn near forty living
with a roomy because she's like, you know, how where
we are we cuddling? Are we all on the couch together?
Like what are we? You know? I agree with her.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
I agree with her as well. Now I understand that
there's probably some elements of certain situations like that where
they're in that issue because financially they're going through a
tough time or whatever. It is fine, it's expensive out there,
I understand it. But if I come across that situation,
if I were a girl, I'd be like, Oh, something's
up there, what is the story? Why are you doing that?

Speaker 4 (08:23):
Dare I say I'd move further away because obviously the
city is insanely priced. I know, absolutely yes, I would
move further away to be able to have my own space.
At forty like and and and and the and they
asked her back, like, well, what's the cutoff in age,
like where do you? And she said the same answer.
I at thirty five? Okay, thirty five and under like

(08:45):
thirty five, but I might, I would probably if you
would go younger than that.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
I would, even for a female. If I was seating
a female, I came across her in her early thirties
and she's with with like a roommate. Yeah, like I'm questioning,
I definitely am. I know I'm hesitating above thirty five.
It's a hard no for me right because of that,
Like adult situations, you just can't. You don't have the
freedom to go hang out at somebody's house and do
all these things and I start like asking, like what's up,

(09:11):
Like what's going on?

Speaker 4 (09:13):
Yes, and hey, let's also throw out there are certain
situations the person's thirty eight and their roommate is I
don't know, like maybe a family member because something happened. Okay,
I'll give them a pass on that because things, you know,
situations are situations, I understand. But for the most part,

(09:34):
get your own.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Place, right, thank you? Get your own place, thank you.

Speaker 4 (09:37):
Yeah. And by the way, she said this, and I'm like,
this is l like we say way worse things than
they do on that show, like way more aggressive things.
People were like, shut up, you're ugly. Yeah, you can't
comment on that, I wrote her, I said, this is
insane land.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
What I agree that it garners a debate in a conversation. Debate,
I think you bringing somebody's looks into the conversation. Yeah,
with it. So if she were not attractive in their eyes,
could she make that statement.

Speaker 4 (10:07):
The way?

Speaker 1 (10:07):
Sorry, if she was pretty in their eyes, could she
make that statement?

Speaker 4 (10:10):
It's what she is? No pretty? So I'm like, wait, sir,
well I again, but just to go right to that,
like we've seen it, we've seen it in our time,
like people somebody will say something and if the person
doesn't like it and they want to be diabolical, they'll
be like, shut up your fat, shut up your ugly.
And it's like those going to that extreme is crazy.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
I would even say it's probably more acceptable in an
easier take to say that somebody is unattractive. But the
minute you bring wade into it, that's all that that's
that's a tough one.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Drop in the f Yes, that's happened to me, Like I.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Don't know when it was, but somebody was making in
front of my body when I was pear shaped and
all this stuff and it hurt like it's not good,
like cuts deep.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
I just didn't think that that was that crazy of
a thing. But it was mainly guys, mainly guys coming
at her. They felt away, so they probably were forty
something with a roommate and I've set I want to
ask our audience though, because I think we have different
people listening. You you meet a guy or a girl
and you're like, this is it, Like things are going

(11:13):
really well and she says or he says, come back
to my place. I have a roommate, though at thirty
eight years old, we have to be quiet. Yeah six
one seven nine three one one four five six one
seven nine three one one nine four five am. I
gonna have A forty year old guy called me and said,
shut up, you're ugly too, Like, where are we at
with this?

Speaker 8 (11:32):
Hi?

Speaker 4 (11:32):
Everybody, good morning. It's Actuley in the gym of morning
show listen. I follow obviously some other gals that are
in and around Boston radio, one of which is my favorite,
Courtney Cox. Love following her. She's prego, she's living it up.
She's on the Greg Hill Show. She posted yesterday all
these comments of people being like, you're ugly, you can't
you can't comment on this, and I'm like, ooh, this
is the tea, Like, what did she say to Garner

(11:55):
this reaction? All she said was if you're over thirty
eight and you have a roommate, if I'm dating you,
it's a red flag. I was like, that's light work,
that's what she said. I mean, people were like, you're ugly,
you can't comment on this. First off, she's not, she's stunning.
But also what.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
I'm on her Instagram now, she's not ugly at all.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
All, Like it's cuckoo. But I just I thought it
was going to be some I was like, it has
to be political. It had to have been because like
that's how crazy the comments were. No, it was just like, hey,
if you're thirty eight and like Sandy said, I have
to come to your house and you'd be like, sh
Maggie's sleeping, like Sheila is in Boston.

Speaker 3 (12:35):
Hi Sheila, Hi, halaia?

Speaker 4 (12:39):
What age? Give me your age before you make your comment.
If you met somebody and they had a roommate, you'd
be like.

Speaker 3 (12:48):
Well, I'm over the age. Drive it's to work. But
I wanted to call in. Those are petty weddings. I
call them and they just say anything that comes out
of their mouth because they're not confidence of who and
what they are. That girl, Courtney, she knows, she knows

(13:09):
who she is. It's confident. She's beautiful. So if it
doesn't apply, it's going to bounce off of you. So
whatever they say, yeah, what's hurt. But if it doesn't
apply to you, it doesn't.

Speaker 4 (13:24):
So what's even more interesting. What's even more interesting about this, Sheila,
is technically you could be someone that's defended because how
old are you and how many roommates do you have?

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Well, it depends. Nowadays, people are living together because of
the rents and so forth. It's up to the individual
if they like that person, regardless if they're living with
a roommate, their mother, grandfather, whoever, it's up to them.
So everybody has.

Speaker 4 (13:54):
You don't want to say, you don't want to say,
I'm not dancing.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
I'm just speaking the truth.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
I know.

Speaker 4 (14:00):
But okay, so I get it. But I'm saying you're
I mean, you're an example because you're like, these people
are losers for saying that that, But you're actually somebody.
You're living in that situation and you could. So how
old are you and how many roommates do you have?

Speaker 3 (14:16):
I have no idea. I never experience that, but I
know because of the the economy and everything's happening, people
are living together.

Speaker 4 (14:27):
Yeah. In fact, Petty Weddys though, I'm going to use
that Shila. Thank you for the call, Dan.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
But I'm trying to figure out if she didn't understand
what you were asking or she didn't want I thought I.

Speaker 4 (14:38):
Was pretty direct there, Yeah direct. Tiff is in Boston.
Tiff I said, thirty five is the cutoff for me.
You're over thirty five, you're living with multiple people like
that would like, what's what what's happening you? You're you're
bringing it even lower.

Speaker 7 (14:54):
Yeah, I am bringing even lower. I mean we have
to grow up, right at some point. It's just from
I'm going to be forty three next month, I have
three kids. Right for me, even the cutoff of dating
would be like, I don't know, thirty eight, thirty five
is even kind of low, So it'd even like lower
my standards of age for thirty five than I alway
has a roommate and like, yeah, I'm running for the hills. No,

(15:14):
but you have the lot readline yourself at some point
like where are your goals?

Speaker 8 (15:18):
You know?

Speaker 7 (15:18):
Can you like is this for affordability? And I do
agree with you if somebody falls upon hard times, it
works good help for sure tis all of us.

Speaker 4 (15:28):
Yeah, And I think Tiff, you're cutting out a little bit.
I'll let you go. But I do think there are
certain situations where we'd be like, obviously this is okay.
I also know that it's unaffordable to live in and
around the city, Like you have to get you have
to get out of the city if you want to
like be able to afford a place on your own
cause it's nuts, but hey, get out of the city, Like, yeah,
but live the life. I remember when I first started
living by myself, I said, I'm going to give it

(15:50):
six months, see what my finances look like, you know.
And after the six months, like they were tight. But
that feeling of having my own space and living a life,
I just I was like, I'll never give it up. Yeah,
like you never give it up.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
The majority of people live outside of the city, but
even if you have to go further out, I feel
like there's more value in that.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
Actually, I just had this thought. Yeah, you've been with
Joanne for so long. Have you ever lived alone?

Speaker 1 (16:15):
No? Never, I have no ida. Like when you talk
like that, I have no idea what I have no
idea what it's like to come home and have like
the house to myself all the time, sleep alone, get
up in the morning.

Speaker 4 (16:27):
Here he is not only wegging in, but on a
high horse. Yeah. The man who's had a roommate his
entire life.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
Show Good Morning, Bastin's number one for hip hop jam
in ninety four or five.

Speaker 4 (16:44):
Hi, everybody, good morning. It's just so sick of it
all right, So complex just posted this article. Man who
suffered horrific death, said he saw angels and demons before passing.
If you the photos of this are so messed up,

(17:04):
it's hard to look at. But that's how he was stuck.
Got stuck in a cave. One of the most horrific
cave accidents they've ever seen. They had to just permanently
seal the cave.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
I do know the Nutty Putty Cave. Yes, yes, dude.
The way that he died is probably the worst death
in the history of deaths.

Speaker 4 (17:21):
Because he was stuck and you could he was and
he was conscious.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
In a nutshell. It's crawling through these little spaces and
exploring caves. He got in a situation where he was
essentially phase down in like a coffin, but it was
a cave.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
Looking at the photo is just it, says John Edward Jones.
Twenty six, died after becoming trapped headfirst in a narrow
passage inside the Utah's Nutty Putty Cave. The tunnel was
so tight that rescuers couldn't reach or move him. In
his final hours, witnesses said he drifted in and out
of consciousness and spoke about seeing both angels and demons
before dying from suffocation and cardiac arrest. After rescue times

(18:01):
have failed, the cave was permanently sealed. His death remains
one of the most haunting cave accidents ever recorded.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
It's what it's easy to picture it, but when you
see the picture, then you can put yourself in the
situation what it would feel like to die like that.
And he was like that for days, days, days, yes, days.
It's like horrific. And the debate there is was he
hallucinating or was he dying? And going back and forth.

(18:29):
You don't know how. But then you hear these stories
of like people who have passed and then they see
people that they have gone before them when they see
something or they have this horrific experience that scares him
to the point of like when I come back. When
they do come back, they fix their lives.

Speaker 4 (18:43):
Like would you. Usually hear is like I saw light, yes,
or like light at the end of the tunnel or
something like that. I mean, we did get a call
a couple of weeks ago of a guy saying he
was almost dead and he.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
Saw yeah me, oh well he was in a coma.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
Yeah, well he was almost on the way out.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
What he said, I mean, yeah, so I guess so
he saw you or his angelic.

Speaker 4 (19:02):
Which one I would constitute as the angel or the demon.
That is crazy things like this is like cave diving
when people they'll climb rock climb with nothing. Yeah, that's
called something specific and I can't think of it.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
But there's doctor Solo climbing three Solo is the name
of the doc even though you know that he survives.
And here's the thing that's not a spoiler, because he
does interviews. Even though knowing that he survives, that documentary
is still terrifying, horrible.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
There's another documentary about a guy who did it and
he did not survive it.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
Yeah, because think about it. One mistake and I guess
that specific place that he climbed was l copy Tan.
There's one specific part of it that's not like like wide,
but it's it's technically difficult and you have to let
go your hands for a couple of seconds. That was
the most dangerous part. But seeing him do that though,
and that's three thousand feet up in the air. Yeah,

(19:52):
like I'm all set, I'm all set.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
I just don't even understand. I can't wrap my head
around it. But yeah, like I don't think you ever
get the answer on that. Was helu who hallucinating or
was he We don't know.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
I don't think we know, but I think there's definitely
a consistency that there is something else after we die.
We just don't know where it is because people have
died a little bit and come back. Nobody has actually
died for days, and then then like, yo, you're not
going to believe what's on the other side of it.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
Right right, Yeah, you've always been kind of into this.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
I'm into it because I don't necessarily have a fear
of dying. I don't want to die, but I don't
have a fear of it because I truly believe that
there is something on the other end. Now I'm not
specifically saying that I believe it's a heaven or a hell,
but there's definitely something. And the way if you go
back and look at cultures from thousands of years ago
and all these things, that it might actually be better
on the other end. And this is just the first

(20:40):
step of this.

Speaker 4 (20:40):
Do you think where you go next, you're living out
a whole life like you're living here.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
Well, that's a whole other thing. And certain cultures from
around the world. You come back and reincarnation is a thing,
and you live a life. So depending on what you do,
this lifetime pays off in the next one. So I
don't think. I don't think that, but I also don't know.
I definitely think there's some sort of consciousness that moves
on to the next part.

Speaker 4 (21:02):
I don't know anybody who's been through this where they're like,
I think I was close to dying and came back.
I don't have a story like that.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
I don't. Oh, actually, I'm sure I know somebody that
died for a couple of minutes. Basically they stopped breathing,
and they explained seeing lights and flashes of figures. They
weren't specific about, like hey, I saw this person. They
told me this, but they definitely had a feeling of
there was something else on the other end. They weren't
dead dead enough to have more specific things.

Speaker 4 (21:33):
I've also heard stories of people saying that they were
close and that they saw people that in their life
that had gone and they told them like, it's not
your time.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
Yeah. Another consistency is is that like they were they
were dying, or they died in that there was this
feeling of love and positivity that they didn't want to
come back from that. Every worry that you've ever had
in your life, every anxiety, every fear, every heartache, all
of a sudden was lifted and you felt so good
that even like you didn't want to come crazy back,

(22:03):
but something brought you back.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
I wonder if anybody listening has had or knows of
somebody that's had that experience, because that is crazy that
he was conscious enough that he was saying like he
was seeing angels and demons. But again we allow six
one seven, nine three one one nine four five six
one seven nine three one one nine four five this
comes a little spooky, being honest by everybody. Good morning,

(22:25):
It's Actuley the jam In Morning Show. A fun fact
for you son about this year three Friday the thirteenth
and Halloween on a Saturday.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Oh that's awesome.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
It's it's if you're a spooky person, it is your world, honey,
it is your year. I say that all to say,
we were talking about what people believe when they when
they pass, when they go to like what's next in life,
because some people, we were just saying, believe like you die, boom,
lights are out gone and see you. H other people
believe you're like reincarnated and you're you live a whole

(22:56):
nother life. We're never gonna be able to confirm it.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
No, we also can't get from the fact that one
dies peacefully to we don't know until we actually.

Speaker 4 (23:04):
Die surrounded by their loved ones.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Yeah, I love one's fine, but we don't know what
that journey's like.

Speaker 4 (23:09):
It's just a weird thing. I think everybody might believe
a little different and choose a guy choose to believe
that it's a positive thing, because I don't want to
think it's anything but Uh, but there are people who
have been close and come back, Like the story I
just told where the guy saw like angels and demons
right before he died and he was able to articulate
that whether he was hallucinating or not. Irene is a natick.

(23:32):
Irene was sixteen years old trying to learn to swim,
and you started drowning. Irene, and you had one of
these moments where you almost crossed over.

Speaker 8 (23:45):
Uh. Yes, I was in the middle of the lake
and realized that I just couldn't I had no energy,
I couldn't go on, and so I started drowning. I
kept going under and struggling to stay afloat, and all
of a sudden, this totally euphoric feeling came over me,

(24:07):
where I felt so loved and so safe, and it
was incredible. And meantime, my mother had noticed what was happening,
and she jumped in to save me. And she said
to me, after she pulled me to shore, she said,
why did you stop struggling? She said, because you would

(24:30):
have pulled both of us under. And I told her,
I said, I just I said, I felt God, and
I just felt wonderful, and I was terrified of deep
water and terrified of drowning. But I've also been with
several relatives who have died like looking off at the
ceiling with big smiles on their faces.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
So why, I ask why? You were sixteen years old,
unable to swim and someone just dropped you out in
the middle of the lake. Through Irene was going, Hey,
were they just like fund for yourself, honey, You're going
to learn today, like.

Speaker 8 (25:07):
What, Well, what happened was it was my uncle's pond.
He had a small pond out back of his home,
and there was a raft in the middle of it.
And I'm like I'm sure I can get to the
raft and you know, then I'll have overcome my fears.
But as I was, you know, trying to dog paddle

(25:28):
and swim and get to the raft, the kids on
the raft pushed it further away and I couldn't make
it there.

Speaker 4 (25:35):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (25:36):
So yeah, no, I wasn't crazy enough to just try
to cross the flags.

Speaker 4 (25:41):
I'm glad you made it. They would have caught a charge.
That is the crazy. You're sixteen? Then how old are
you now, Irene.

Speaker 8 (25:49):
I'm seventy six?

Speaker 1 (25:50):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (25:51):
First, have you sound amazing?

Speaker 8 (25:54):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (25:55):
Thank you?

Speaker 8 (25:55):
But my whole life, I mean, that has guided me
because I have I'm not a religious person, but I
have no doubt and I try to live my life
so that when I die I get to go back
to that place.

Speaker 4 (26:12):
Yeah, I mean not, I just got the chilies, that's
I mean. And again, seventy six years old, you were sixteen.
That having you remember it like it was yesterday, is
that's pretty crazy. Well, thank you for that.

Speaker 8 (26:22):
Yeah, it was incredible. You're welcome, and I hope comfort
to tell people that have dope.

Speaker 4 (26:28):
Yeah, no, I hope so too. I also just have
I have to ask you. I mean if somebody said
to me, ash the average age of people that listen
to your show, I mean, I'm certainly seventy six. How
did you? How did you find us? How did you
come upon us?
