Is Jeff right to think this is an insane idea?

Also, do you ever go through your old high school yearbook? Or, are you normal and prefer not to unlock adolescent trauma?

He's good, as he.

Speaker 7 (01:48):
Was saying, no, no, no, he's losing his mind right now,
probably because he's bored out of his trees.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Got nothing going on. Well, he's drinking, that's it. The
thing that's bumming me out is he did the Binghamton
weekend to go see his father long yes, which is
always an adventure. Yeah, and I just wish he was
here Mondays to talk about it. I would I mean
We got some details on text. I want to know
what he ordered at Jimmy's chop House. Jimmy's chop House
was I think it's a staple out there. He goes

(02:14):
multiple times when he's visiting me. He did text us
a picture of well it looks like a goblet of
scotch that was smoking, smoking, and was like a well,
how bad can it be you're eating steaks and drinking scotch. Yeah,
but a look of pain on his face? Yeah? Yeah, yeah.
Every time I every time he goes to Binghapton, I
just tell him, I go, you really love your wife? Done? Yeah,

(02:37):
It's always a street all right. Like I said, we
got more twenty twenty five highlights. It's been a hell
of a year.

Speaker 9 (02:43):
Man.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
We're gonna highlight some of it and we're gonna get
to the download in sports next. But first let's blur,
shall we? Song two on Boston's Classic Cross We Are
one hundred point seven w z LX Wednesday morning, Good
morning to you.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
It's the download with Dan on Boston's Classic Rock one
hundred and twinty seven wc Alex.

Speaker 7 (03:07):
If the question has been burning in your mind since
the Karen Reid trial wrapped up. What is Alan Jackson
doing with his time? I have an answer for you.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
I have so many issues with this.

Speaker 7 (03:16):
He's now going to be representing Nick Reiner in the
murder case of his parents, Rob.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
And Michaw Reiner. What can someone tell me?

Speaker 4 (03:24):
Why?

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Why would you want to take on this case? I
mean he's represented Harvey Weinstein, like, that's that's what Alan does.
So he has no problem with the comebacks, I guess,
not alleged comeback, alleged comeback, reportedly, supposedly, allegedly.

Speaker 7 (03:37):
Yes, in the eyes of the law. Not yet prosecuted
or convicted. Jackson confirmed Reiner will not appear in court
for medical reasons and has not yet entered a plea.
Prosecutors planned to charge him with two counts of first
degree murder. Jackson, of course, who also represented several notable
individuals in his Los Angeles trials, he does continued to
work on Karen's civil cases.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
He declined to.

Speaker 7 (03:55):
Comment further on Nick Reiner's case. But back in the spotlight,
Man Jackson, ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
This is the part I'll never understand because clearly I'm
not a lawyer. But like the moral part of it.

Speaker 7 (04:07):
It's all strategy. It's all strategy. Why this is strategy,
because that's just that's what the law is. It's all
just strategizing.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
Is he going to get him off on insanity?

Speaker 4 (04:16):
Like?

Speaker 3 (04:16):
What do we do?

Speaker 7 (04:17):
I'm sure that I will be curious to see, you know,
because obviously within the last few days, I think everybody
has a pretty defined opinion of what happened here. But
it'll be curious to see what exactly the defense. And
this is going to drag out for I mean, this
is gonna drag out forever. When are we actually going
to see? This's got a trial twenty twenty.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
Seven, Probably not all right.

Speaker 7 (04:37):
Doctor Mark Schavis, who pleaded guilty to saipplying ketymine to
connected to Matthew Perry's overdose death, was sentenced yesterday to
eight months of home confinement, three years of supervised release,
in three hundred hours of community service.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Please say.

Speaker 7 (04:49):
Chavez obtained ketemine under false pretenses and supplied it to
another doctor, who then sold the drug to actor Matthew
Perry in the weeks before his death. He's the second
of five defendants to be sentenced in that case, surrounding
Matthew Perry's death. An eighteen year old man was taken
to U Mass Memorial Hospital yesterday after being hit by
an suv at the intersection of Maine and Walker Streets
and Milford. My god, people, have you seen this video

(05:10):
because I cannot wrap my head. This is just the
literal I hope this kid's gonna be okay, but it's
the literal definition of no one.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
Is paying attention. He got tagged, Thank god, he got
out of the way when he did so when you
look at the video, he flew like after he got hit.
He decat clipped on this.

Speaker 7 (05:26):
He was trying to get out of the way, so
basically he at first when you watch the video, it
looks like he's taking a picture of something.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
That's what I thought he was. That's what I thought.

Speaker 7 (05:34):
First, right, But evidently he was trying to help a
box truck back out of a driveway.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
So he's in the middle of the street, middle of
the road.

Speaker 7 (05:42):
Anytime I've tried to help somebody back out, like you
get the hand up, you're making sure that oncoming traffic
sees that you have to.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Start, and you're looking at the cars that are hoping
they stop, which.

Speaker 7 (05:50):
It doesn't appear that this kid, this guy's doing at all.
And then there's two SUVs coming directly at him with
headlights on there and they're coming from a distance. It's
not like he just stepped out at the let like
he's been in.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
The road, the road since the car was in the show.

Speaker 7 (06:04):
Chuggar chugged, chugger chugged, and you're like, you're like puckering
your butt and you just went. And then at the
last second he realizes the car is about day. I
don't know if that person's on the phone or what.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
That's what I was just thinking. Texting while driving has
to be because there's no way you don't see that.
How do you not see a figure standing right now
in the middle. I know it was dark out, but
it was like, yes, right, you had your headlights on. Yes, no,
bottom line zero people were paying at paying attention, so
you shouldn't laugh. But it's just like Jesus, come on,
it's crazy.

Speaker 7 (06:32):
Thankfully, the team was alert and conscious, he reported back
in the limp pain UH investigation is ongoing place have
not yet said whether that driver will face any charges.
Here in Medford, Saint Joseph School has canceled classes yesterday
and today after about twenty percent of the students were
out with neurovirus.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Yeay, hey, Merry Christmas, Hafi Hanukah.

Speaker 7 (06:51):
It's marking the second school in the city to shut
down for illness in recent weeks. There's no confirmed neurovices
neurovirus diagnosis, but the school said many students were home
sent I'm sick with stomach bub gastron testinal symptoms and
that closure will allow for a deep cleaning.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
We were talking about this last week while you were out,
and Chuck was talking about how they're calling it the
rib cracking syndrome. People growing up so hard that cracking ribs.
That's a that's that's hardcore. That reminds me of go
in clumbing in my twenties. Yeah. I never cracked a
rib though, No, I mean I've had you have the
abdominal pain the next day, Yeah, you throw up.

Speaker 7 (07:28):
It's coming out of every single you know. It's just
so likeuid everywhere, but not great. So hopefully everybody recovers soon.
Thirty degrees in Boston right now, we'll see a high
of forty four on the way. It's going to be
cloudy for most of the day.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
With some wind moving in later this morning. I'm Danielle.

Speaker 6 (07:43):
That's your download seven seconds of sports with Tyler.

Speaker 3 (07:48):
All right, daniellet's start up with the good news, shall
we say? Bruins played the mammoth last night of the Garden,
Geeky having a season, scored twice last night, Pasta got
a couple of assists. Jeremy swimming went from being Swiss
cheese to a brick wall. Yes stop twenty of twenty
one shots last night, and the Bees open to five
game homestand with a four to one win over Utah.
They'll catch a breather tonight and play the Oilers tomorrow night.

(08:10):
Puck drops at seven. All right, Daniel You've heard me
say this before. Yes, I love sports, but I'm not
a huge fan of sports media. I just have I
never had, and I've never understood because all my friends
are like this. I've never understood why you would want
to listen to regular people talk about sports. Correct? What
are they telling you that?

Speaker 9 (08:27):
Like?

Speaker 3 (08:27):
What are you gonna learn from that? It's like listening
to me, So yeah, we don't learn much, except you
don't learn anything. I just tell you what happened. Yeah, exactly.
I like to hear from the professional athletes, those that
stood at the mountaintop and played the game at the
highest level, like Julian Edelman, Patriots Hall of famer hopefully
soon to be Football Hall of Famer. Yes, got a

(08:48):
great podcast called Games with Names, and here's his take
on the Patriots Bills game from this past Sunday.

Speaker 8 (08:56):
First half looked good, Drake did it with his legs,
had a cup, good throws.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Everything was going all right.

Speaker 8 (09:02):
But you gotta you make your name in that second
half of these kind of games. And Josh Allen in
the second half five straight touchdowns.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
Yeah, that's the takeaway. You make your name in the
second half, which you know, I wouldn't know that if
I wasn't a professional football player. And here's the rest
of his take.

Speaker 8 (09:21):
I think my ultimate reac action was Josh Allen's MVP two.
Patriots may have needed to have this loss going into
this back end.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Of the it's not unrealistic to see season, it's not three.

Speaker 8 (09:38):
The game seemed a little seemed a little too bright
for the Patriots at the end.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
So two takeaways up. Yes, one is the game did
seem a little a little too heavy for them at
the end. They haven't had that kind of pressure game
yet this season. And also, I've heard other people say
this too, but it really hit home when he said
it is he thinks maybe they needed the loss, a
little snap back to reality after her ten game winning
Street feeling a little invincible, a little adversity heading into

(10:07):
the playoffs. Maybe that was a good thing. We'll find
out big game under the primetime lights this weekend on
Sunday Night Football. The Knicks beat the Spurs last night
to capture the third annual NBA Cup, or, as it's
known to many, the most meaningless title in sports history.
And finally the Boston Legacy get their goalkeeper. Danielle US
Olympic gold medalist Casey Murphy is coming to Boston. The

(10:30):
deal runs through twenty twenty nine. It's worth over a
million and a half bucks. That's not bad money to
play soccer. And she said, I'm excited to be in
such a sports city. They call it title town for
a reason, and I'm excited to build a culture here
from the ground up and be a part of something new.
So Danielle, I say, we give miss Casey Murphy the
official Chuck Nolan Morning Show Welcome to Boston. Salute you
hear What are you show them to Boston? That's sports.

(10:54):
I'm Tyler Moore twenty twenty five. Highlights of the Chuck
Nolan Morning Show. Next Chuck Nolan Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Once They Hear from You.

Speaker 5 (11:02):
Eight seven six one seven, one hundred point seven Boston's
classic rock.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Driving around this weekend.

Speaker 6 (11:10):
You might have been backed by far that had the
words cannon ball on the side. Yes, we had a
cannonball rally coming through baby.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah it's back.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
And stuff like.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
I must be I'm Roger Ball.

Speaker 9 (11:26):
Roger.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
Remember the Cannonball Rally movie? It was a cannonball running.
Was farah fawcet there? Okay? Yes, she was there? A
series of movies or was it just one? There was
more than one. Yeah, the first one is the good one,
the good one. Frank Sinatra, he makes it a canon.
Bellowise Donald's got Dean Martin, Sandy Davis Junior, the heavy hitter. Oh,

(11:54):
I gotta bless her. I'm sorry, father, she's a Zen
Buddhist and you're not, as you can't. We specialize in blessing.
Sam mood S Dean Martin playing a priest. Yeah, God
doesn't get anymore. There was a lot of jokes in
that movie that you cannot do today. True, very true.
So this Cannonball Rally, which apparently been going on for

(12:16):
eight years, came through Massachusetts over the weekend. So you
drive your vehicle along the route, which includes stops from
bar Harvard and Nashville. Participation feet twenty seven five dollars
to get in on this. Oh, it's a whole.

Speaker 10 (12:32):
Professional It's like a semi professional thing, these guys said Christmas.

Speaker 3 (12:36):
At least like night Rider.

Speaker 6 (12:38):
Yep, you acknowledge the risks associated with the run, including injury, death,
property damage. During the ride, the group gets to stay
in luxury and unique accommodations, have daily car washes that
provided walkie talkies, and enjoy fine dining and private concerts.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
I don't remember that from the movie at all burgers for.

Speaker 9 (13:00):
They sign.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
And two minute look six seventy five. Hear my desert blossom,
give the change you'll ever consider trying ahead of them?
You can't. You can't do that. You can't.

Speaker 6 (13:18):
No, No, Jamie Farr is the chic. Yes, by the way,
you're burying this is highly illegal. This is high This
whole thing is illegal.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
Isn't it. It's like, no, it's not. It says it
was some some city.

Speaker 6 (13:36):
Some cities provide shutdowns and police escorts to ensure smooth.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
That's a nice detail if you can get it. I
thinks a car.

Speaker 10 (13:46):
These guys that do the real sort of cannonball run,
it might not be this, but they do it totally
off the book, and they black out the car radar detectors,
they put extra fuel in it and just go held
bent for leather, not suctions. That's what you do it
like a movie.

Speaker 3 (14:00):
Thanks a way. Second, let's get the real story.

Speaker 6 (14:02):
We have Anthony out in the car, who was actually
in a cannonball rally at one time.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
Anthony, Good morning, Good morning, Chuck.

Speaker 9 (14:10):
Good morning everybody. Thanks for taking my call. So I
was driving across country with my family and we were
out in Arizona and we head into California and I'm
in the car and out of the driver's side mirror,
all of a sudden, these supercars just come out of nowhere. Ferraris, Lamborghinis,
who gottis just like out of nowhere, and they just

(14:31):
stopped flying by us, just crazy. So I was in
a V eight Cadillac. I floored that baby. And I
followed that as far as I could until my mother
woke up in the passenger see freaking out. I was
doing one hundred and forty five.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
Come on in a caddy.

Speaker 9 (14:55):
In a caddy in an sts and vat sts and
we do a fly. I had that thing pinned. But
they were really cool. They pulled off at the next
exit and we stopped and we pulled off too, and
let my son who was two at the time. Uh,
he let him like, look at on the car.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Wait a minute.

Speaker 6 (15:15):
Wait, you had your mother and your two year old
in a Cadillac, which you're known for the handling, and
you're going forty miles an hour and.

Speaker 9 (15:23):
The wife, Yeah, one hundred forty It was a flat.
You're in the desert. It's wide open. It's just a
straight shot. So you just pedal to the metal and
just keep on going one hundred.

Speaker 3 (15:35):
And forty five with a two year old in the car.
What can't imagine I've never gotten that.

Speaker 9 (15:41):
Yeah, once in a lifetime opportunity. Great, great story to
tell people about my cross country trip.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
It could have been the last in a lifetime opportunity.

Speaker 6 (15:49):
They say after they say, after you hit one hundred
and twenty five, the steering wheel stop shaking, and.

Speaker 9 (15:56):
Actually it handled, It handled really really well. Honestly, it
really did. I was because I kept on pushing that.
I was at like one ten, and I was at
like one fifteen. Then I was at like one twenty,
you know what I mean. And I kept on pushing
it a little bit, and I'm like, all right, this
is holding up pretty good. And I just stayed as
like close as I could. They were flying. Those ties
are beautiful.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
I think you could thank you for the experience, Anthony.

Speaker 9 (16:20):
Wow, thank you guys for taking my call.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
You had a wonderful dead you too.

Speaker 6 (16:24):
And they say Massachusetts drivers have a bad reputation. I
can't believe that.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Sure, it's all great, but you may have missed the
best part.

Speaker 5 (16:32):
Listen to the full show podcast every day on the
iHeartRadio app right here, That Chetne Morning Show on Boston's
Classic Rock one hundred point seven w z LX.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
I don't know if I could find my yearbook. I
have mine. Do you know where it is? Do you
have a look through it? Yes, periodic break man? Really
I got I ever looked in mine that thousand years?
Imagine what that would be like. I don't want to
know look at people wrote in.

Speaker 7 (16:59):
My friend Jill and I have a game where we'll
see photos of people that we went to high school
with on Facebook and we'll send them to each other
to be like, can you guess who this is? And
sometimes you have to go back and flip to your
book and be like, I, dude, I have no idea.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
It's like.

Speaker 6 (17:12):
The only reunion I went to was my ten year
and I didn't recognize people because a lot of guys
lost their hair, there were some weight.

Speaker 3 (17:20):
Issues, people looked different and they didn't do name tag. Yeah,
you need name tags.

Speaker 7 (17:24):
You have to do names, especially if you were from
like a big school like swampskul Hi.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
I was fairly small. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (17:29):
My thirtieth is at the end of November, but I'm
leaving for Thailand that night, so I can't go.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
Would you go to the thirtieth?

Speaker 7 (17:35):
Yeah, I've gone to all of them that we've had.
We didn't do a five, we did a ten fifteen,
we didn't do a twenty five because of COVID.

Speaker 6 (17:42):
I went to one. I went to my tenth. That
was it because it was in Worcester, It's where I
grew up. And then it worked at AAF which is
in Worcester. So I was going back, like I'm going
to show these guys and I have way too much
attention and freaked me out.

Speaker 7 (17:54):
It's you know, I can see that the people that
I want to keep in touch with from high school,
like I do, and like I see a lot of
people around, like a lot of people still live in
Swampscott so I'll see them periodically.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
And like some of the other.

Speaker 7 (18:05):
People, it's just shot and freud to be like, oh
remember how remember how bad you made my life in
nineteen ninety four. Glad to see your life sucks now.

Speaker 6 (18:12):
After a couple of vodka and sodas, Allie, yeah, the
truth comes out.

Speaker 3 (18:16):
I always hated you, weirdo, right, all right, get out
of there, you get out of that space anyway. Yes,
I still have your book, all right.

Speaker 11 (18:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (18:25):
The download with Danielle is next. It's a Chuck Nolan
Morning Show on one hundred point seven WZLX from.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
The WZLX catches law dot Com studios.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
It's the download with.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Danielle on Boston's Classic Rock one hundred and twenty seven WCLX.

Speaker 7 (18:44):
You know, Tyler, you and Check want to make fun
of me for being a distracted little squirrel as I
was yesterday reflecting on the beautiful sunrise, reflecting on the clouds,
and I just want to point out to everybody that
there's another glorious one happening right now.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
So take a lot look at the clouds. Though it reflects.
The clouds make drama. Good sunrises and good sunsets have clouds.
But no, it's just pink clouds. It's just pink clouds.
I'm about to give you all bad news, all right, Ellen,
enjoyed that, got it understood. Now do the bad news

(19:16):
in preparation for that. Hello, Colleen and friends.

Speaker 7 (19:20):
Alan Jackson, figurehead in the Karen Reid case. Everybody's like, oh, Alan,
what's he doing now? I'll tell you he's gonna be
defending Robin Michelle Reiner's son Nick, who was accused in
their murders, allegedly reportedly supposed, well, he's accused in their murders.
I didn't say he committed their murders. So Allan confirmed
that Reiner will not appear in court for medical reasons

(19:41):
and has not yet entered a plea. Prosecutors plan to
charge him with two counts of first degree murder and
the deaths of his parents. Jackson, who also represented Harvey
Weinstein besides Karen Reid, will continue to work on Karen's
civil cases. He declined to comment further on the Rhiner case.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
I don't know how you take this case. I know,
bothers me.

Speaker 7 (20:01):
You know, I've been reading a lot of comments. I
want people speculating, wondering if it'll even go to trial,
because if they'll whip up some kind of insanity, some
pla situation, because i mean, this is you know, he's
got a history of mental health issues, addiction, everything else.
So I'm sure this is going to be another case.
It's going to drag out for several years. Doctor Mark Shavez,

(20:23):
who pleaded guilty just applying ketamine connected to actor Matthew
Perry's overdose death, was sentenced yesterday to eight months of
home confinement, three years of supervised release, and three hundred
hours of community service. Prosecutors say Shavs obtained kenemine under
false pretenses, supplied it to another doctor, who then sold
the drug to Matthew Perry in the weeks before his death.
Shavaz is the second to five defendants to be sentenced

(20:45):
in the case surrounding the friend's death. In twenty twenty three,
French star Rather yesterday, crazy video surfaced online of an
accident that happened in Milford involving an eighteen year old
man who had to be taken to UMass Memorial Hospital
after being hit by a black Toya suve. At first,
when you look at the video, it looks like the
kids out in the street, like maybe holding up a
cell phone and taking a picture of something. But then

(21:06):
it turns out that he was. It looks like he
was trying to help a box truck back out of
a driveway, so it's kind of holding the hand up weight.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
But never never looks in either direction.

Speaker 7 (21:18):
To his side on the street to see oncoming traffic,
Like it looks like he's standing out in the middle
of the street. Meanwhile there's two cars coming at him
headlights on. They're coming. They had the car in front,
had plenty of time to see this guy in the
middle of the street. So I do not know how
this happened other than somebody was texting or it was
distracted driving, so nobody was paying attention. Nobody was paying attention,
nobody was looking. The team noticed the car at the

(21:40):
very last second, tried to run out of the way,
gets clipped, thrown to the ground, was suffering from some
back and limb pain. So they are doing an active
place investigation in place of not said whether the driver
of that SUV will face charges in the case. Sentencing
for Brian Walsh has been postponed from today until tomorrow,
according to the Norfolk County District Attorney's Office, but they

(22:01):
did not give any reason for the delay. Walsh was
convicted Monday of first degree murder in the twenty twenty
three killing and dismemberment of his wife, Anna, whose body
was never found. That conviction carries a mandatory sentence of
life in prison without parole and an automatic appeal to
the Massachusetts Supreme digital Court. But they're saying that this,
even though they've delayed it till tomorrow, it's going to
be kind of a no drama situation, like there's nothing

(22:23):
you can do. Everybody knows what's coming. Show up, get
your sentencing, and that's kind of.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
Enjoy the rest of your life behind boss, behind bars.

Speaker 7 (22:31):
Finally, Saint Joseph School here in Medford canceled classes yesterday
and today after about twenty percent of students were absent
with stomach bugs bug symptoms, marking the second school in
the city to shut down for illness in recent weeks.
They do not have a confirmed neurovirus diagnosis, but the
school said many students were sent home sick and the
closure will allow for deep cleaning ahead of the holidays.
Classes are expected to resume tomorrow, following a similar illness

(22:55):
related closure last week at Roberts School. Right now in Boston,
it's thirty two degrees. Feels like that's kind of bomby
for the last week that we've had, excepted it feels
like twenty so don't get too excited. Today we will
see a h a shocking. I have forty five on
the way, but it's gonna be windy later on. We'll
see some pretty brisk wind gusts, which is gonna keep
it feeling pretty cold.

Speaker 3 (23:15):
When this Saint Friday, like sixty mile an hour wins.

Speaker 7 (23:18):
With rain, Yeah, fifty eight degrees, but downpours. We have
some downpours, so.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
We're basically going to be in Florida on Friday. Hurricane
weather seems like it awesome, great.

Speaker 7 (23:28):
Good times, Merry Christmas, everybody happy, Honika, Love this for
all of us.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
I'm Danielle.

Speaker 5 (23:33):
That's your download one point seven seconds of sports with Tyler,
and we start.

Speaker 3 (23:39):
Off with the good news. The Bruins played the Mammoth
last night at the Garden. Geekye having a season scored
twice Pasta gets a couple of assists. Jeremy Swaming went
from being a slice of switch cheese to a brick
wall overnight, stopped twenty twenty one shots, and the Bees
open to five game homestand with a four to one
win over Utah. They get a break tonight and they
are back at it tomorrow night again. The Oilers puck

(24:01):
drops at seven. So as sports fan, I am sports
media fan, I am usually not. I love listening to
professionals talk about sports, not just the average common guy.
So I love Julian Edelman, who doesn't. Patriots Hall of
Famer hopefully soon to be actual football Hall of Famery
got a cool podcast called Games with Names, and this

(24:21):
is a quick take on you know, his version of
what happened on Sunday with the Pats and the Bills.

Speaker 8 (24:26):
First half looked good. Drake did it with his legs,
had a couple good throws. Everything was going all right,
but you got to you make your name in that
second half of these kind of games, and Josh Allen
in the second half five straight touchdowns.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
You make your name in the second half of football games.
That's something only a professional would know. And here's what
else you had to say.

Speaker 8 (24:50):
I think my ultimate rea action was Josh Allen's MVP two.
Patriots may have needed to have this loss going into
this back end of the It's.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
Not unrealistic the season, the playoffs.

Speaker 8 (25:04):
It's not three. The game seemed a little seemed a
little too bright for the Patriots at the end, and
it did.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
It seemed like they kind of couldn't handle the big game,
the best way to say. But I've also heard a
lot of people say what Julian just said about how
maybe they needed a loss, maybe they needed a little
slap of reality and little adversity going into the playoffs.
We'll see if it helped right big game under the
prime time lights this weekend on Sunday night football basketball

(25:34):
in those we had the Knicks beating the Spurs last night.
Why do you care? Because it was the third annual
NBA Cup and they won it, and I think no
one cares it is hands down the dumbest tournament in
professional sports history, but for some reason, they keep doing it. Finally,
the Boston Legacy get their goalkeeper US Olympic gold medalist,
Casey Murphy. This is a big score, man. She said,

(25:55):
I'm excited to be in such a sports city. They
call it title town for a reason, and I'm I
need to build a culture here from the ground up
and be a part of something new. So of course
we have to welcome her to Boston with the official
Chuck Nolan Morning Show. Salu, what are you hear? What
do your share? Welcome to Boston, Casey? All right? That sports?
I'm Tyler. This is the Chuck Dolan Morning Show. More

(26:17):
highlights from twenty twenty five on the Way next on
ZLX one seven WZLX.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Right here on the Chuck Nolan Morning Show, everybody, we
answer the age old question what am id a hole?
And if you have an a whole moment that needs
a solution, email the crew at Chucks Show at WZLX
dot com.

Speaker 7 (26:42):
This one is something that's interestingly close to my heart,
but probably not something that I would ever do. Hey guys,
good morning. My name is Jeff and I'm a fan
of the show, and I wanted to get your opinion
on something. If you have a few minutes, Jeff, I
assure you we have a few minutes for this every day.
So my wife and I got a dog right after
we got married twelve years ago, and he's on death store.
The vett told us the only humane thing to do

(27:04):
is put him down, and we're going to do so
this Saturday. My condolence is never an easy decision. Hard
the wor it's sad and I'm heartbroken, but the dog
has had an amazing life and he's uncomfortable. My wife
is so devastated that she told me she never wants
to get another dog, and she wants to pay a
taxidermist to stuff our dog and wants him displayed in

(27:28):
the home.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
No.

Speaker 7 (27:30):
Wow, I thought she was joking, but she's dead serious,
and I think she's lost her mind. My question to
you is how do I get her to come back
to Earth. I don't think this is a rapture reference.
Am I the alehole for not wanting to stuff my
dead dog and show it off.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
In the house? Oh wow? I wish I knew what
kind of a dog it is.

Speaker 7 (27:49):
Well that I mean, if it's a little teacup Yorky
that's on the dresser or you know, on the kitchen counter.
That's a little different than the German shepherd next to
the fireplace, Like.

Speaker 3 (27:59):
The German shepherd next to the fireplace facing you while
you're watching the pants came and just those glass eyes
looking at you.

Speaker 4 (28:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (28:05):
Or maybe the yorky on the the dresser with the
get like a little tie tag from the beanie babies
and like the little clothing for the.

Speaker 6 (28:12):
Ear, or if you want to give the dog a
little personality one of the features that they were famous for,
like licking themselves.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
You get them in that pose? Why would you do
for the rest of eternity.

Speaker 7 (28:23):
As someone who has looked into the practice of taxidermy,
it's kind of hard to get the wire form in
that particular shape.

Speaker 4 (28:30):
Right.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
Well, then I'm out. You can't do this. You can't.

Speaker 9 (28:35):
You got.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
The game.

Speaker 7 (28:37):
I get why some people want to do it. This
is it again, someone who's researched this, not for my
own stuff, just because I have morbid curiosities about weird
things like this. You're going, it's it's very hard to
find a qualified taxidermist, and you it's very expensive, and
you do run the risk of it not coming out

(28:57):
the way you expect it to. And now you've got
this dog that you paid seven hundred dollars to stuff,
and you're like, this doesn't look like Rocky at all,
and like do you cremate them after the fat?

Speaker 3 (29:07):
What do you do?

Speaker 6 (29:08):
Everything about this is just so weird. You pay a
crazy amount of money to have this done. Then you wait,
then what Amazon drops it off at the front door.

Speaker 7 (29:15):
Well, that's probably a signed FedEx delivery. I'm thinking, I
think you have to sign for that.

Speaker 6 (29:21):
And there's tippy all in the styrofoam peanuts and you
take them out.

Speaker 7 (29:25):
And take off the bubble wrap. Those eyes are so realistic.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
I think follow you around the room. Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know. This is brutal. I know people do this,
I know they do.

Speaker 6 (29:35):
I thought it was mainly like cats.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Cats they're smaller. You no, can we not? You get
these with the nonsense.

Speaker 6 (29:44):
You stuff the cat and you put it on the
side of the house like it's climbing up.

Speaker 7 (29:48):
When I when I filled in a couple of summers
for a leb Brown on the other country station, they
had a little, tiny texta germied mouse in the studio.
It was fascinated by it. It was it was like
a little it was I had like a little Pope
theme or something.

Speaker 3 (30:01):
But I was like, oh, you were playing with it.

Speaker 9 (30:03):
I was.

Speaker 3 (30:03):
I was like kicking up.

Speaker 7 (30:05):
Yeah, mice are very delicate to do that with.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
But I don't know.

Speaker 7 (30:09):
My concern would be what happens to the dog, like
when they're gone, Like do you leave it to the family,
because for me, I have I mean I have a
freaking you know, you know what ton of urns in
my house from all the animals that I've fostered or
had in my life.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
So I've instructed my mother.

Speaker 7 (30:23):
I'm like, if I go before you, you get to
take all the cremaines, dump them together with mine, and
then put us right in the ocean.

Speaker 3 (30:29):
So you need to come up with a plan, like
what's gonna happen if they die? And then they're like,
what do we do with Tippy? Wait a minute to
the fire.

Speaker 6 (30:37):
So your mom is supposed to have this ikea bag
filled with ashes.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
That you dump off the ferry.

Speaker 7 (30:43):
Yeah, good morning, fran if you're listening, don't tell my
mother I said that, Uh checked.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
The wind direction.

Speaker 7 (30:47):
First, Yeah, she's she's adamantly against my doing that. But
I'm like, please just return me from to whence I came.

Speaker 6 (30:53):
All right, But this guy, this guy has to play
it serious though, because his wife obviously very attached to
the dog.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
Remember the family, I think, and she can't let go.

Speaker 7 (31:02):
I think Jeff needs to let this marinate for a
little bit and sit her down and maybe play this second.
Not the joking part, but it's it's you're taking a
big chance. This is not something that's really perfected. If
you don't find the right you can't cheap out on taxidermy.
If you don't find the right It used to be
a place in Revere, I think by Wonderland that did it.
But if you don't find the right person that has

(31:22):
a lot of specific experience with the animal that you're
trying to preserve, yes, it's gonna be very bad. It's
like Pinterest fails when people try to make a SpongeBob
cake and then it comes out looking like vomit.

Speaker 3 (31:35):
That's the same kind of thing. I don't get, like,
why you want to do this. I'm having a hard
time understanding why she wants the dog to be awund
I have an elderly dog. She's eleven years old. Creamate
that's it. Urn do the thing. What am I gonna do?
Have my dogs sitting there on the couch dead? Oh
my god? Pet it?

Speaker 4 (31:52):
Like?

Speaker 3 (31:52):
What do you do with the What do you do
with it? You give it a kiss at night? What
do you do? Yeah? Give her a little pat on
the headset Daddy loves you? Like, that's crazy. You start
stuffing human heads too.

Speaker 6 (32:03):
You can get room in a sleeping position and just
petter as you're laying in bed.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Dude, you know no one loves the dog more than
I do. This is your way in the world. I
would ever even consider this.

Speaker 7 (32:14):
By the way, if you want to talk about preserving heads,
Ted Williams would like to have a chat with him.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Cold in here. You gotta put the dog on a tunic?
Can what dog rest in peace? For God's sake? Are
you gonna have it with a ball in its mouth?

Speaker 6 (32:27):
Here's what Jeff has to do. He has to do
what happened to me? Hey should we get a dog?
No dog shows up? Hey should we get a cat?

Speaker 3 (32:35):
No? No cat shows up? Just do it. You are
the king of just unwanted pets cleaning up vomit this
morning at four am? Well, how was that noise again, Danielle,
I heard that just as the coffee.

Speaker 7 (32:50):
Never mind the dunkin alarm on hatch that's gonna make
it if you program that in your phone. Is your
alarm that's gonna make you rocket out of bed in
no time.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
Yes, that is the greatest alarm without a doubt. Sean,
what do you think? What do you have? Sean?

Speaker 4 (33:06):
Hey, good morning. Uh, this is a family member. This
is so disrespectful. It's like would you tax derby one
of your kids? Like this is like water lion like
like almost like a red flag, Like I'd almost think
about divorce in this person. Like come on, Sean, have.

Speaker 7 (33:24):
You ever seen the funerals in New Orleans where they
they'll they'll prop the person up like playing poker with
the sunglasses on and stuff.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
No, but now you have me thinking about weekend at Bernie.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Yes, it's the same kind of thing. It's so it's
it's something.

Speaker 7 (33:39):
It's just so cool though, I mean it's they're very elaborate.

Speaker 6 (33:43):
Do you remember the Steelers fan in the armchair wearing
the jersey and he's holding the remote and there's a
TV of.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
The Steelers game on Oh My, and it gets better.
It's spun around so you can see every angle of them.
We're gonna with Tyler, but it'll be good fellas.

Speaker 6 (33:58):
That would approve with an ober guy at the door
just ringing the bell over and over and over.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
Is he ever gonna get here? He ordered this Centapio's
pizza like three weeks ago. Now back to am I
the a hole?

Speaker 1 (34:14):
It's the Chuck Nolan Morning Show on onety seven w LX.

Speaker 6 (34:22):
Have you ever been in somebody's house but they have
like a stuffed animal head on the wall, like a
deer or something they hunted.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
I've seen that, a deer, a bore. Yeah, it's always
so weird you just stare at it. Yeah. Hey, hey, Paul,
where'd you where did you feel dress that thing before?

Speaker 4 (34:36):
You?

Speaker 9 (34:37):
Nice?

Speaker 3 (34:37):
Nice?

Speaker 7 (34:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (34:38):
Yeah, it's a little unsettling to walk into someone's basement
there's a dead head on the wall.

Speaker 6 (34:42):
And we still have a case in the Boston courts
right now of a woman who is in a bar
where the animal hell fell off the walls and hit
her in the head.

Speaker 3 (34:51):
I remember that. This is why we don't don't come on,
I can't do that today, that noise every time, that's
just so you're getting hit with that? Are am?

Speaker 6 (35:04):
I the a hole Today is about Jeff and his wife.
They got a dog together twelve years ago. Love that dog,
remember the family they are family met, are very hard
to say goodbye, but it's that time. And his wife
says she never wants to get a dog again, but
she does want to stuff the dog and keep it
in the house.

Speaker 3 (35:24):
Come on, dermy, Yeah, he does not want that to happen.

Speaker 7 (35:29):
And understandably why also this, I feel like this is
prohibitive cost wise, because especially if it's a big dog,
because you've got to keep it frozen.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
You got to keep it preserved.

Speaker 7 (35:40):
And if you're going to find somebody good decent possibility,
they're going to be out of state, which means you
have to ship it frozen.

Speaker 3 (35:47):
Well like dry ice, that kind of thing.

Speaker 7 (35:48):
Yeah, I mean, it's not like my belly orders. It's
it's you know, it's sending a dog.

Speaker 9 (35:53):
You know.

Speaker 3 (35:53):
What keeps going through my mind? What the actual process
of them doing it? Yeah, Like all I can think
about is my dog getting It's just I wouldn't do
that to her, you know, it goes through my mind
now that you brought that up. The guy yesterday you
lost the lobster tails and steak and everything because he
didn't get any other Oh god, yes, oh no, very
much the same thing. Jen, Jenny's gonna shame us, all Jen,

(36:16):
what do you think?

Speaker 12 (36:18):
Good morning you guys. So there's no a hole here.
I don't think mom's in pain.

Speaker 9 (36:25):
I get it.

Speaker 12 (36:26):
I've had a ton of animals. I've lost a ton
of animals. It sucks, but she think, you know, to
accidermy your dog, get a you know, you cremate you bury,
get a nice picture frame it. Put it on the mantele,
make it the screenshot on your computer so you can
see it every day, and you know, who knows what
happens in a couple of months. She may come around

(36:48):
and go, you know what, or on a year she
made one another dog. It's just it's no, there's no
but I don't think there's an a.

Speaker 3 (36:55):
Hold here, all right, Okay, yeah, it's pain.

Speaker 6 (36:59):
There's a motion going on. Yeah, that's a great example though.
It just dropped off my daughter in Scotland for school.
Our first dog with the kids was Molly fifteen years
great dog. She absolutely loved that dog. She showed me
when we're going to Scotland. She still has the dog's blanket,
to which she still you can smell the dog in
the blanket. Still, Come on, Mollie, like four years ago,

(37:23):
you could still smell the dog. She has the caller
with the the tags on.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
It makes sense. Every dog makes a certain sound when
they run, you know, and she has that. And this
conversation is killing me.

Speaker 6 (37:33):
And the footprint when the dog passes away, you can
get a pawprint in clay, and she has that, just
to give you some ideas time.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
Come on, dude, why would you end it like that?

Speaker 7 (37:43):
Jock?

Speaker 3 (37:44):
Yeah, just slap me in the headway. Jesus, you're killing me,
all right, My poor girl? What is it? Remy Tyler
fell in the well, he fell down the trash shoot
in the condo building. Well, Tyler broke his leg. We

(38:05):
gotta put him down, Get me a bag the shotgun.
Enjoy my pain, We do very much.

Speaker 6 (38:12):
I'm sorry, shot I'm sorry. Maybe I went a little
too far. John is going to bring us back.

Speaker 11 (38:16):
What do you think, John, Yeah, well, I think if
you ever saw the show Ozark, when one of the
ladies died, they compressed the body and turned it into
a diamond. So ask the woman, Hey, wouldn't you like
to have the dog turned into a diamond you can
wear around his neck? When she says, hell, no, I
don't want to wear my dog around the neck.

Speaker 4 (38:37):
Well, then I don't.

Speaker 11 (38:37):
Want to be tripping on him every time I get
up to go to the bathroom.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
So turn the dog into jewelry. I know someone who
has a little pieces of so some of the ashes
and a little thing yea and around she wears it
around her neck. Yeah. Do you know how many posts? Okay,
do you know how many posts?

Speaker 7 (38:56):
So I've seen on Facebook from like I just saw
one two days. There's a Facebook group about like tips
and tricks for traveling to Salem this time if you're
for people who are coming from out of the area.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
And like one.

Speaker 7 (39:07):
Woman was on Salem Common and she's like, I lost
a necklace. It's got my brother's ashes in it, And
I'm like, that would be my biggest fear is losing
something like that.

Speaker 6 (39:15):
Yeah, Well, what if you want to have part of
the dog with you still? Though you take that chance?

Speaker 3 (39:21):
Sure, you know, but I don't know. You have to
let go.

Speaker 7 (39:28):
I just think maybe Jeff waited out a week, leave
the dog frozen at the bed, and then she'll come around,
Oh it's not great. And then maybe she's scrolling pet
Finder just.

Speaker 3 (39:37):
To know the poor thing is frozen solid. Things frozen solid. Already.
Wait a minute, PAULI has a warning for us. What
is it, Paulie.

Speaker 2 (39:48):
Yeah, if I was, if I was her husband or
a significant other, whoever he is, I've you wondering if
I was the next if I was going to be,
you know, but you know, one my dog died, My
samson died and got him when I was thirteen and
died when I was twenty seven. I cried for four days,
could not stop. Ryan never cried that long, on that

(40:09):
out for anybody or anything, anytime, any place, but cry
it out, lady, cry it up. Then we put him
in a pet cemetery. I carried him out, My parents
were there, put him down, carried him out in the bag,
and we bought him and brought him right up the
streets of the pet cemetery and got him. That's where
he is today. So you can go, you know normally,
you know, and then like instead of hey, this is
my dog, you know, up in the wall and the

(40:31):
people company coming over and they're looking at your sideways.

Speaker 3 (40:33):
And yeah the dog. This is a real uplifting conversation.
When is your next slap some babies? I mean, what
are we doing there
