Wake Up, Wake Up, Wake Up, Wake Up.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
In a world of dull, mediocre radio in a time
of regulations and rules, under the scrutiny of bosses and management,
one show breaks all the rules to deliver entertaining, compelling
and educated radios and stand above all the rest on

(00:38):
this show, isn't it?

Speaker 1 (00:44):
And what's happening? Good morning? What a rough day yesterday, buddy,
it was a rough day. We lost somebody and it's sad,
and it really was somebody who meant a lot to me.
Piero Robert from w MMR and up in Philly died.
He's been around for forty some odd years. That's right.

(01:07):
Like this morning I met wahwah getting gas and the
guy pumped the gas says, hey man, sorry about your colleague,
and I'm like, my colleague, I'm like, how did you hear?
He's like, well, I saw it online and I guess
his Boddy woke him up and said, hey man, look
if Pierre died. I was like, oh, I was like,
I thought you were talking about somebody else. He's like who,
I said, well, my buddy on the radio, my partner,

(01:30):
his mom passed me. I was like, how did you
hear about his mom. My mom died, but let's talk
about Pierre. Yeah, Pierre really had. He was an influence
on me. I'll be honest, dude. It was Howard Stern
growing up and Pierre Robert. I remember Pierre Robert was
so big it at the time, in the like the
late eighties, early nineties. We would go. My brother took

(01:53):
me to the Cherry Hill mall and I got a
bump an MMR bumper sticker signed by Pierre and it
was on my door until the day we moved. It
was on my bedroom door. I didn't know much about
him other than listen, the guy seems to live a
pretty cool life. He was. He was kind of like

(02:14):
at that hippie vibe. He's just out, you know, he's
reading books and drinking coffee in the city.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
I've had a lot of interactions with him, and he's
always been a gentleman and a wonderful human being and
so and everyone that works with him has said the same.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Loved his coffee. I loved twin peaks. That's so and
it's like a kid.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
So you could go. So my brother would also take me.
It was Nick, the hot dog guy. I believe that
they called it, and it was a hot dog cart
outside the MMR studios in Philly, and you could go
and leave a request with Nick and then Pierre during
the day would go down and pick up the requests
from Nick the hot dog guy. And then you know,

(02:54):
I remember I went, I put grateful dead truck him.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
That was that was what I left with Nick the
hot Did he get on, dude? I think it did.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Yeah, Yeah, And it's look, you know, we've had some
we've been you know, it's been nice being in radio.
We've been able to kind of meet and talk to
some people, and it was nice that I was able
to meet him a bunch of times and just.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Thank him for like here you he was my childhood.
And it's sad. I guess he died Diamoss sleep. I
don't think he was ill, and you know, so this
sounds like a heart attack. Maybe he really was a
part Like he had music knowledge. He was at every concert.
He could go back and talk about when the Pearl
Jam tried at the Spectrum back in the nineties and
he was there and a part of all that. He's
like he would tell a story on the air with

(03:37):
all the music He's the last guy and.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Do you do the whole thing? Well on Thanksgiving with
Alice's restaurant, that was a whole big.

radio guy, and like I said, I've talked to a
ton of people who worked with him and they all said,
he's just a It was a super sweetheart. And my

And then stupid John Ridder falling over a stupid couch

(04:31):

even says there's even a part in the song where
him and his buddies that's a great song. Yeah, he's
even a part in a song where he's like, ah, man,

Speaker 4 (13:55):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
Smashing Pumpkins front man Billy Corgan who has a podcast,
uh and he know has Smashing Pumpkins. He he fired
the Bassis Darcy Redski years ago.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
And they've kind of spatted. You know, got a female
Darcy Darcy.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
Yeah, she's just kind of cute, you know, he's kind
of trashed her. But now it's the thirtieth anniversary of
their big album, Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness, and he
actually came out man and had nice things to say
about him. He said, I don't often speak about Darcy's
contributions because obviously what went down a.

Speaker 1 (14:34):
Few years ago didn't leave either of us in the
best light. I guess they were they online, they're kind
of were taking shots at each other. Yeah, he said,
but I said it before and I have no problem
saying it again. Darcy had away kind of letting it
be known of how to move the band forward, and
the four of us we she probably carried the most weight,

(14:57):
So I mean it's good. Billy Corgy can be a
dick at time, so.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
It's nice that he he's saying nice things about his
ex bandmate. Now a lot of people are speculating, now,
does that give her an opportunity to come back to
Smashing Pumpkin.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
See, you got an attractive female bass player. She may
not be as good as a guide based player, but
she had some drug problems. But see that's the issue. Yeah,
but that's fun to have a you know, a hot
chicken a band. You know. Bon Jovi said it's he
had some throat issues over the last couple of years

(15:33):
and that's why they haven't been on tour. But now
they're going back out on tour, not doing a big tour.
I think it's only about maybe maybe ten shows, but.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
He said that my throat is in touring shape, and
it's I wouldn't go out there, And I appreciate what
he says. Here he goes, I wouldn't go out there
and have people pay money for a ticket.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
You know, if I couldn't say, yeah, Jennet Jackson, try
pulling that off. Last year I went the same thing.
Man didn't have it It's kind of like I gotta
say a money put But Nelly was there and Nelly
killed Nelly crushed it. Nellie still Ella is opening up
for bon Jovi. Who Nelly is? Then I would go,
is he with the Saint Ludatics? Yeah? I think there
was only one Saint Ludatics, so I don't know what

(16:16):
happened to the other Saint Ludatics. Jail. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (16:21):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Bon Jovi also did put up a very nice post
about Pierre Robert from MMR up in Philly because because
because those guys like they came up with Pierre, Like,
you know, bon Jovi would show up to the MMO.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
This is back in the day when you could do this.
You would just show up to the MMR studio and
be like.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Hey man, here's my CD or here not even here
that back then it was here's my record.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
That's how you got on the air. But I'm sure
he was so well respected with all those guys, all
those guys, so, you know, I think Billy Joel put
something up. Bon Jovi put something up. I mean, everybody
in Philly put something up. I'm sure the Hooters will too.
The Hooters did. Yeah, that story. I had to introduce
Piero Bear so he could introduce the Hooters. Well, you're
a low man on a totem pole, dude, I'll never

(17:06):
forget my introduce the guy who's going to introduce the band.

Speaker 3 (17:10):
I'm supposed to introduce the Hooters for the very last
night of Revel, right, and then before it became Ocean
and and the Hooters they were never going to play again.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
It was the last show ever. Right, there's a big deal.
So they called me up and they're like, can you
introduce the Hooters? And I was like sure. So I
get my buddies together and we all go out to.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
Have a night out in the town in Atlantic City
and I go to and I'm about to introduce the
Hooters and then Piero Bear shows up and he's like,
all right, guys, you know you know what time am
I introducing you?

Speaker 1 (17:40):
And I was like, I was like, oh, is the
real Bear about me? I'm introducing them? And then Pierre
kind of has a little meltdown, and then you know,
they talked to some some PR people and Pierre comes
up to me and apologizes, Like I said, I've met
him multiple times, beautiful human beings. Yeah, and he comes up,
and he goes, how about this? He goes, why don't
you go out there since you already came out here tonight,

(18:01):
they're paying you introduce me. I've known these guys since
the start in Philly's cool. Yeah, and then I'll introduce
them because I want to give him a loving message
and send them off. Well okay, and I was like, whatever, dude.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
People call you they don't know what to say, you know,
and and it's like it's like, okay, thing man, like
she and and and it wasn't like it was sudden.
You know, my mom was in hospice and she had
been you know, she had dementia for the last four years,
so you kind of the writing was on the wall.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
Yeah, but uh.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
Yeah, it was weird yesterday, it being I really didn't
care for being around a dead body.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
I don't think I can. I really, you know, I
didn't like it. Well, when I saw the text, mess
just said, hey, man, happened thirty minutes ago. I'll let
you know about it. Well, we had a key. We
had a word, Yeah, a word, and that word was
BT oh yeah, because it was Bachman Turner overdrive Wednesday.
So if I text you bto, you knew that she

(23:46):
was she was gone. So I'm looking at the text
and I laugh. And and this is after I told her,
you know what happens, Like, why are you laughing? I
was like, because it's just ironic because his dad passes away.
Where at mister Hush's weekend interfere yes, which is a
parent you would just be so disappointed. That your child
was even engaging. My parents died a disappointment. My dad
died because we we were at mister Hush's Weekend of Fear,

(24:07):
which was ridiculous. Yeah, and in Madamori's Pennsylvania. And then
my mom she she must have had the radio on
h she heard bt O Wednesday and she died of disappointment.
And now your mom will when we think about her passing,
it's going to be on Bachman Turner Overdrive Wednesday. I said,
it's just it's just funny because it's always going to

(24:28):
be tied to Bachman Turnoverdrive, which makes no sense at all.
I I don't. I didn't.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
I wanted to make this announcement next week. I talked
to both Bachman and Turner, and they're going to play
my mom's funeral.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
They're always going to be attached to your mom passing
away as Bachman Turner over Do you want to hear
the craziest part?

Speaker 3 (24:46):
So we end up kind of, you know, look like
she gets you know, the body gets taken, you know
to the funeral home.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
We call the funeral home.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
And we have to sit down and meet with the
lady and you do that, you know stuff you sit
at a desk and they you know, you pay a
ton of money for this, you know, this funeral.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
The day of huh, you got to do all that.
The day of the funeral, homes tried not to have
us come, and me and my brother are like, we've
been preparing for this, so we just get it over today,
Like let's just like get like, yes, if we can
meet today, it would be awesome. So we're going over everything.
I get it, you know, it's it's expensive. But the
woman's like, do you want an obituary? And so my

(25:23):
mom grew up in outside of Cherry Hill and uh
so we're like, yeah, probably the Courier Post. Maybe some
family or friends you know, can see it at the obituary.
But I'm like, who still reads the newspaper anymore? No, buddy,
put it on social media? Yeah, so that's what she said.
She goes, we put it on Facebook and blah blah blah,
like did we do all that? So I said, okay,

(25:44):
I said, you know what, put it in the Carrier
Post just and uh she goes, okay, it'll be eight
hundred dollars for the obituary and a newspaper that no
one reads yeah, and I'm like, yeah no. Me and
my brother looked at each other. We're like, yeah, take
that off off the contract. Where not paying eight hundred
dollars that for an obituary that no one is gonna read.

(26:06):
Three hundred dollars, I'll put flyers up like we're throwing
a house party around the neighborhood in Ocean City. I'm like,
are you kidding me? I was like, that's why have
you ever picked a newspaper up lately?

Speaker 4 (26:15):
No?

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Not that looks All it is is is three pages
and a bunch of flyers. I remember the obituary too.
I guess eight hundred dollars you get a picture in
because some is just like I don't know smiths away. Yeah.
Oh now now that's something you do. Eight hundred bucks
will get it out of here.

Speaker 4 (26:34):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Look, this report is sponsored by Atlantic City Electric of course,
so holding up pretty well on the Southeastern Jersey Highway
stations z XO show. You know, my wife fights me
on this, and I thought we had an agreement that
the kids were gonna start dressing better for school. What
do they dress up in?

Speaker 3 (26:53):
Because I'll tell you, dude, I've been hanging out with
my nephew a little bit more with all the stuff
going on with my mom. Yeah, and uh, he's a
junior in high school and the I guess the attire
for a kid a junior in high school right now
is T shirt, basketball shorts, birkenstocks.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
With socks up to half your calf. Really, yeah, I
was hoping at high school like they people started to care. No,
my kids dressed like me. Like the other day, my
son comes home. Now it's a little chilly out now.
See my dude, My dude is all about clothes. He
gets it from my wife. He's very bougie smart man.
He does. He'll do wardrobe changes throughout the day.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (27:34):
Yeah, I wish my kids care. No, and it comes
down on us too, because I will tell him, Hey, listen, man,
go go change. We're going out to dinner with you know,
just a pair of pants and like, I don't know,
it don't have to be super it don't have to
be like a like a preppy sweatshirt, like you used
to wear sweater vests and stuff. Give me, like, I
don't know, just.

Speaker 5 (27:52):
The sweater.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
The whole family match. You guys did the family pictures,
you know that whole I was three. Yeah, I know,
you guys look great. It don't have to be that
dressed stuff where everybody matches.

Speaker 5 (28:01):
But I don't know.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Damn man put on a pair of pants. The other
day he gets home from school. He's got he's got
basketball shorts on. I like it, and a sweatshirt. I'm like,
that's me. Yeah, but like I can do that exactly.
But I can do that. No one sees us here.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
It's like in Big Daddy when he tells the kid Frankenstein,
you can just dress however you want. Yeah, you know,
and then he's just it's a mishmash of clothes. I
think he was wearing rain slickers. Like when iHeart bought us,
I don't know. It was like, I don't know, maybe
three or four weeks there.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Why put an actual pair of jeans onto like a
shirt and I'm like, God, no one's here, remembers. Yeah,
I don't care. I did not know.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
I remember when we got we came over here twenty fourteen.
The owner kind of old school and really didn't know us,
and we eventually kind of became close with him.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
But at the time we were his favorite bath. We
were we were he hated everybody here still does. And uh.
And so he was like, hey, no shorts.

Speaker 3 (28:59):
And I remember laughing, and I was like, aha, that's
so funny. I thought he's made it, making a joke.
And I remember a couple of days later, we had
a meeting and I came in wearing shorts and he
took me aside and he said, I told you, no shorts.
And I'm like, yeah, okay, that's not gonna fly, dude.
And it got so especially with COVID, it got so relaxed.

(29:19):
Here the dude across the hall.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
Where his pajama pants. Nobody cares anymore. Nobody cares, nobody.
I saw a salesperson wear a bathing suit here once
the other day. Now, my my twelve year old gets home.
Now he started to care, like his looks like his
hair's done, but still not caring much about the clothes.
My kid is in the colonne. Oh wow, Yeah, he's
really going all out. Man. Yeah he's got brute, yeah,

(29:43):
packed in the brute on his face. Well, you know,
he's doing it for the ladies. Comes home, he's got
crocs on. I said, absolutely no, dude, those cars. Do
you want to give me a sweatshirt? I got you
crocs with socks because that's what we had, socks and

(30:03):
crocs like with sock like white socks. And I'm like,
that's a dude that I hate that look it's too relaxed.
And again I'll you know, hey, you know what where
how do you want to present yourself? I'm like, can
can the guys just can the kids just wear? Give
me a pair of jeans or a pair of pants
and a T shirt? That's all I asked, like, And
again we finally got away from like the gaming controllers

(30:26):
and growl it's Wednesday Dinosaur T shirt. It's like they're dune.
Yeah yeah, the kid Yeah, that's all done with. I
get that. But it's like, do they wear like sports stuff? Yeah?
And the sport and I get the sports stuff is
cool too, and they do kind of do things that
are I mean, they're active kids. Yeah, but I'm like,
I don't know, man, that I got to put my
foot down crocs the school put a pair of sneakers

(30:46):
on something.

Speaker 3 (30:46):
To my son A couple of years ago, we went
down to the beach and I mean he wasn't he
was probably like eighteen nineteen years old.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
He comes down to the beach with us. He's got
you know the slides you wear, like the uh, the
the old Adidas slides, like some people call him shower shoes.

Speaker 5 (31:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (31:02):
Yeah, he's wearing those with socks pulled up halfway up
his calf to the beach. That doesn't make any sense.
And I actually took a picture of him sitting there
in the beach chair in white socks. I go, what
are you doing, dude, That's just silly because those things
have to slide off your feet. Breathe a little bit. Yeah,
I'm like, but he's wearing socks to the beach. Yeah,

(31:24):
where as well as my wife dresses and presents herself.
I'm like, I'm kind of shocked. You even let the
kids out of the house looking like this looks like
a bunch of riff raff. The dude, it was a
big deal. Remember, like getting the first outfit for a
first day of school, Like, dude, I remember a week
maybe yeah, probably a week before school started. I would
I dude, it was like it was nerve wracking. And

(31:46):
then I'll tell you what and I get it. We
went I went to Catholic school for high school, and
you had to wear a shirt and tie, and it
helped out a lot because everyone wore the same thing.
I get white people have a school uniform. Yeah, because
you don't have to worry about all that nonsense like
I used to before I went to Catholic school. It
was like, Okay, what am I gonna wear today?

Speaker 4 (32:07):
Like?

Speaker 1 (32:07):
I had a sweet Ford Ranger T shirt, you know,
tucked into my leviyes.

The podcaster was goofing with him and said, can you
use an American accent? And so he tried using the
line I ordered breadsticks with ranch at Applebee's.

and then made it joke that he was sweating the
entire podcast trying to do the American accent. Uh oh,
we're getting people's Sexiest Man alive.

Speaker 1 (34:10):

like Hugh Jackman and Bradley Cooper. Let me see here,
these are the fan chosen ones. I don't know who
any of these people. It's gonna be like jelly Roll.

said that since she had her last kid, she has
brain fog, which a lot of women say that. Man

Isn't that just the sack that the baby kind of
hangs out? And I remember seeing it, man, I swear
when I was there, people were eating it for a while.
Oh god, I remember seeing it in the hospital like

(37:10):
I'm trying to get through like between the wall and

terrible picture, terrible probu Yeah, but uh yeah, rest in piece,
Pierre Robert and and my mom and mom also look
we get back. We're gonna do a thing called You think.

Speaker 5 (48:21):
You have it bad?

Speaker 1 (48:22):
All right, you think you've got it bad. I don't
think we have it bad. The days of humanoid robot
housekeepers are upon us. Remember that from the Jetsons? Rosie. Yeah,
Now there is a robot housemaid. Neo is a five

(48:45):
foot six robot that weighs sixty six pounds that's a
perfect size for a woman go ahead, but can lift
one hundred and fifty four pounds and carry fifty five pounds.
It also has a four hour battery life with fast
charging capability, and it's programmed with a variety of autonomous
asks around the house. In addition, there's.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
An expert mode where it's human operator can supervise and
provide corrective intervention and it will learn.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
Neil will cost twenty grand to own. Gentlen't mind a robot,
but it has to be able to function. Pauli's robot
and Rocky four can't get into a launder that face saw, Yes,
he can't. It's like a companion. I don't need that.
I need something that can walk, drink, yes, mow my lawn,
do the laundry, do stuff like that, take the dolls.
Did you watch that movie with Megan Fox where the

(49:29):
guy his wife is like held up in the hospital
with cancer. Yeah, and he gets the hottest robot and
he buys this like super hot robot to be like
the nanny and uh it it like terminator, it becomes
you know, it comes alive. It bangs them in the
garage out there. Dude, it's a dream. She's smoking hot,

(49:51):
looks like she's like her job is to take care
of him.

Speaker 5 (49:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (49:54):
And she saw that he was missing his wife and
you know, wanted to bang, and so she banged them
and then it started the like cut the wife out
completely and started to kill the family. Yeah. I think
she tried to kill the wife, right, she didn't try,
she almost did. Again, every it's every wife's nightmare. It's
like when you have a hot babysitter and the guy

(50:15):
picks it out, like you don't want that that hot
robot walking around the house. My god, man, it was
Megan Fox. Dude, she's just smoking hot.

Speaker 5 (50:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (50:23):
We've all seen a variety of social media influencers spouting
off opinions as if they were facts, with little to
no facts or education to back them up.

Speaker 1 (50:32):
In China, that won't be happening.

Speaker 3 (50:33):
A new law has been enacted that requires influencers to
have official qualifications before discussing sensitive subjects such as medicine, law, education,
or finance.

Speaker 1 (50:44):
Dude, I'm kind of okay with that. I think I'm
okay with that too, because these kids listen to these
influencers and they just spew nonsense. Yeah. Even my wife
will show me something like, well, where's the credibility? Like
this person you're getting opinions from. Where, where's their credibility?

Speaker 4 (51:00):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (51:00):
If you're thinking about spending Halloween in Salem, that's in Massachusetts,
you best watch your butt. Last year spooky season attendance
records in Salem were shattered, and the crowds aren't expected
to get any smaller. With that in mind, police and
Salem as It issued a warning that finds a legal
behavior will be tripled through the Halloween season. That behavior
includes drinking in public, littering, and random acts of vandalism.

Speaker 1 (51:24):
I also heard too they never burned witches in Salem.
That was all made up. Yeah. I think that's just
kind of become a story. Yeah, it's like a wives tale.
So basically you're just going to a town that just
embraces the Halloween theme and you're spending your money real Halloween. Yeah,
you know it's that stupid.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (51:39):
Hocus pocus? Like it's say it's it's those type of
greatest Halloween movie of all time? Who be Halloween? Adam Salem?
Oh god, really man? Yeah, I think that was based
out of Salem Salem's Lot. Great great movie. I'm just
the Bricotine Castle. Yeah what dude? Yeah, go figure.

Speaker 3 (52:00):
You make a building out of like cardboard and plywood,
Uh huh, and it burns and it burns down.

Speaker 1 (52:07):
Yeah, shocker, Like I have a place of brigantine, I
would be shocked. Would it still be there if it
didn't burn down? Would they still have a break? It
just didn't make any sense why it was there. Yeah,
that was in the commercials ran constantly. I believe I've
watched a couple YouTube short documentaries on places like that yea,

(52:28):
And by the late eighties with the attendance was dwindling
and uh, whoops, oh I left a match or whoops,
I flicked a cigarette by accident. Oh no, my business
is burning down. Hopefully I have insurance. Got vampires just

(52:48):
jumping into the drink. There it's on fire. I don't
think it was well, dud. Do you remember the Great
Adventure one that happened while people were in it breaking
as light thing happened during the winter. Yeah, but the
Great Adventure one, it was like you know those like trailers,
like those those like the like the trailers you see
on like a cargo ship. Yeah, it was just a

(53:10):
bunch of those and they made it into this like
walk through horror thing. Yeah, and caught fire. Dude killed
a bunch of kids. And then there's Great White. Then
there's Great White. That's a whole another thing. What if
Great White was playing at the Brigantine Castle? You know
I heard that that's what happened there. You go. Uh,

(53:32):
those people they have a bet you.

Speaker 5 (53:33):
Not so much.

Speaker 1 (53:34):
Rates are slowly kicking down, Gold and Silver are up,
and lucky all the Jerseys rock stations, the Xcel Morning Show,
all right, kiddos. I'm not talking about going out and
ruining somebody's house or getting arrested like I did. I
didn't even think about it. Yeah, because it's I don't
I think kids are so lazy now, Yeah, it's it's
a mischief mischief night, mischief night too account. I remember

(53:58):
from mischief Knight. First of all, it was the first
time I was ever taken away in a cop car,
oh boy. And that was eighth, eighth or ninth grade
where I di vandalizing and too old at that point
to be doing that. Yeah, hundred percent. Yeah. Yeah. And
my dad agreed too while he was kicking me in
the kitchen, and then Mom gotten away and said please
stop kicking him, and then I could think he kicked
one more from the side around mom. And then then

(54:19):
after that I learned my lesson, you know. Yeah, but
that was the first time I was in a mischief.
That used to be a big deal. I remember. I remember,
like God had me. Thirty five years ago. Uh, they
almost burned Camden down completely. I was a junior firefighter.
I think it was like I was like a higher factory.
They started a fire in and it like it just
half a Camden burned down. I was a junior firefighter

(54:41):
latter two five three, Cedarbuck, New Jersey. Thank you for
your service. Thank you. You know you're welcome. I don't
think I seen one. It was one apartment that caught
on fire. Other than that, I was on a It
was like a stove that there was one, and I
wanted to see it, but I didn't. It was one.
It was a car accident where somebody was decapitated. They
went under a truck, and I was like, it'd be
kind of cool to see that. But I remember being

(55:01):
on stand by. As a junior firefighter. You could ride
on the truck, but you didn't really go in the fires.
But I was there packing up poses and my part, ah, yeah, me,
I don't. I don't know that if that's what firefighters say.
But but yes, but you you know what, you did
a nice service. That's what we did in Cedar Brook
ran the fire. It's like the four homes and c
Bruck is that where the cold cow is. There's always

(55:22):
a fat guy who drives the ladder. He's too fat
to go in the fire, you know, so he drives
the ladder truck and he was kid crushing man. Those
guys were cool. So I remember man being on stand
by as Candon was burning because if they needed a
ladder truck, we had a ladder truck. It was like
that had to be early nineties something like, Yeah, I
was early to mid nineties. Yeah, because I yeah, I was.

(55:43):
I was young. I wasn't eighteen yet, but I remember
the guys being on stand by in case they had
to go in. Yeah. Uh, I think they slept at
the firehouses waiting for the call because Candy was burning down. Now,
I don't want to see that go down in my neighborhood.
But if I leave this more or tomorrow morning to
come to work and I see something toilet, if I
see some bars of soap, if someone soaps someone window,

(56:03):
just leave it there, so toilet paper, take the sobs,
it goes away, the soap you wipe off. That's enough.
One there's too many Karens out there now that will
call the police right away. And the other is kids
are lazy. They just don't go out, dude. I remember
I remember sitting on my front porch on Mischief night
with a golf club because we had like kids that

(56:25):
would come in egg the houses. Yeah, and I was
sitting there like, all right, I'm protecting my my, my
parents' house. Like I'm there, I'm protecting the house, and yeah,
they're like nothing. I don't even think about it now,
Like until you brought it up, I forgot that it's
mischief night, that I as a responsible adult that I
am now, I would say maybe a hose would be
more in order to squirt the kids that were coming
to your house, and not to bash their skulls in

(56:47):
with them. No, I club. I was like twelve, and
I was ready to roll. I was gonna bash their
head out to take the weakest fat one it can't run.
I just put the hell out of them. My brother
had a Ford Ranger and I hid in the bat
in the bed of the truck, smart man, waiting, just
waiting for someone to come. They never did, but I
was waiting. I was there. Yeah, you know that's I

(57:07):
was just I was like Patrick Swayze in roadhouse. I
think kids would look like if I told my kids, hey,
let's go toilet paper some of the neighbors, I might
do it. They're probably gonna look at me be like,
I don't understand what's happening here. Night, Go cass the
mischief man. The other thing too, is I think this
generation also takes things too far, like we see it
with these protests, Like you can protest without throwing a

(57:29):
brick through a window, Yeah you can. Like I think
kids today are like mischief night, Like you were gonna
slash your tires. No, the whole thing was like, hey man,
it was an egg on the house and that oh
that sucks. Now dad has to get the hose out.
Like that was it? Oh, some toilet paper, a soap
on a car like hey like yeah, no, no, we're
gonna kill your youngest. Then it's like, okay, no, you

(57:52):
don't have to go that far. Yeah. We used to
play knock knock zoom and knock knock zoom was fun.
And then one time one of our bodies knock knocks.
But then he started to try to pull his tree
out of his yard, and that's where the neighbor came
out and threw the kid down. Now you could do
it back then. Oh, then the other dad shows up
and they're ready to square up. But that's how you
handle it. Why are you trying to pull the tree
right right? Just knock on the door, knock and run,

(58:15):
knuckle ahead. They do it now. I got him on
the canda, I got him on the ring. The kid
does it now and it's a joke, like around the neighborhood.
Like he's not he rings the door cameras, like you're
on camerad. You know. I got a picture. I could see.
My daughter got caught uh doing it years ago and
she was like, I don't know it was. It was
right like when she was like probably eight or nine

(58:36):
and we would let her go to her friend's house
and they got caught doing it. I had to go,
you know, to the neighbor and be like I apologize
and make her apologize. But it's like, so that's such
a harmless thing, you know, the knock, knock and run. Listen,
anytime the kid's out running around outside, you gotta give
him credit no matter what they're doing something, you know.
I mean, yeah, And here's the thing, like I just

(58:57):
feel like they, I don't know if they think they
have to up their game. So it's like knock, knock,
peel on your door. You don't need to do that.

Speaker 4 (59:04):
No.

Speaker 1 (59:04):
The kid used to put dog crap in a brown
paper bag and let it on fire and the guy
steps on it. Now you can burn someone's house down.
Come on, everybody, thanks your calls today. Always welcomed on
