could be true, right, because it's true, my god, exactly.

(01:15):
So it's Danielle, myself, Pelosi and producer Jack All right,
here we go.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
And we were just talking about schools back in Worcester
and did you say Lawrence and Lawrence too before Labor Day.
That's wrong, That's just wrong. I don't understand why they're
gonna be fun.

Speaker 7 (01:36):
And you're gonna get through.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Thank you and the kid. You're still America's dad. You know.
It hits kind of home Worcester being back in school,
since I did grow up in the City of the
Seven Hills in the Paris of the eighties, myself, I
always hated that first day of school coming around. I
don't care what they do. They were saying, what are
the schools? Was rolling out a red carpet for the kids. No,

(02:00):
it doesn't know, it's not going to help. No, it's
the first day of school. Summer is over.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
I like how you mentioned there was a day last
week where it was we had such pleasant cool weather
last week, low humidity, and you had said it feels
like back to school. I mean, it's get that smell
in the air cooler. Today is not that day. It
is soupy as a mother out there.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
I can't see the city right now. No, it's in
the soup.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
It is in the soup. It's very it's showdery.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
It's also the last week of the Ticket to Rock summer.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Oh see, it's just it's over in the blink of
an eye.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
So we're going out big all this week. Tickets for
Adam Sandler at the Garden on September thirtieth, So we're
going to give a shout out at seven ten and
eight ten with the Classic Rock Challenge that mister Pelosi's
coming up with. We'll get you some tickets today and
let's get started. We'll try to get through this, Willow Tyler.

Speaker 3 (02:48):
We'll endeavor to have a show. Think we'll be all right.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
Ac DC CLX.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
It's the download with Danielle on Boston's Classic Rock one
hundred seven Lex.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
Oh way, do I need to stop making predictions on
the show before the weekend?

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Apparently too. I mean it's Friday. I can't even look
you in the eye right now. I don't know what's
going on with you. I don't know what you have
tapped into here.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Evidently the divine or some higher being, some kind of knowledge.
So if you missed it on Friday, we were talking
about the rip currents and all of the fallout from
Hurricane Aaron and I had said something along the lines
of we'll probably see an incident at Salisbury Beach or
Fantasket and Haull. Originally I was thinking Hampton, but I
changed it to Salisbury. Well, let me start with the

(03:38):
first two stories this morning. First off, a very very
tragic one seventeen year old boy has died after he
and his sixty one year old father will pulled from
the water at Hampton Beach last night. Police said that
team was swept away by a strong current and his
dad became distressed trying to save him. Lifeguards and a
firefighter responded, but the boy later passed away at Exitter Hospital.
His father is in stable condition. Swimming at Hampton Beach

(03:58):
is temporarily closed due to dangerous conditions, and rescue crews
are still searching for a man in his fifties after
a forty seven foot vessel capsized off Salisbury Beach on
Saturday mid rough surf from Hurricane Aaron. One person was
rescued and hospitalized with non life threatening injuries. Coast Guard,
state police, and local responders remain unseen as Salisbury Beach
days closed due to those rip currents.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
I heard somebody talking about watching that boat trying to
go out there and how the waves were just out
of control and this thing was getting swamped right away.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
What are you doing? What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (04:29):
I don't understand all the warnings everything for days.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
People think it's not going to affect them. Are They're like, oh,
you know, to be fine, it's not that bad.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
I can get through it. I know what I'm doing.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Especially with the rip currents. It's visually, it's very misleading
from the shore, so really tough stuff. Lyele Menendez' parole
hearing descended it to chaos. On Friday, after ABC seven
published audio from brother Eric's hearing obtained through a public
records request, family members erupted in anger, accusing officials of
violating their rights. Recordings detail Eric's account of the eighty

(04:58):
nine murders of his parents, including claims of abuse and
fear of his father. Eric was denied parole on Thursday
for at least three years, and on Friday, the board
also ruled Lile not suitable for release, keeping both brothers
in prison, and over the weekend, nearly one hundred people
gathered outside the home of seven month or excuse me,
seven month old Emmanuel Harrow, laying flowers and candles after

(05:20):
his parents, Jake and Rebecca, were arrested on suspicion of murder.
You know, you never you never want to question right
off the bat how a parent reacts when they're talking
about an alleged missing child. Everybody responds to shock and
grief differently, but just I don't think I've seen a
lot of comments about this case. I don't think there's

(05:40):
a single person that believed these two when they were
claiming that baby was kidnapped.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
I felt the same way. Is this the one the
woman had a black eye?

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Yeah, and she was they're doing like the crocodile teacher.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yes, And then they went to the dad who was
just kind of stoneface, bringing our son back. But it
was just it did not ring true.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
It didn't ring true, really really awful. So they think
that the original crank claim of a kidnapping was fabricated.
Investigators now believe the baby is dead, although his remains
have not been found. That case has sparked outrage and grief,
with community members demanding justice. There's a national nonprofit honoring
the baby. With a two hundred and ten minute blackout
sixty six degrees in Boston right now, it is soupy

(06:20):
and foggy and cloudy to be a combination there up,
that fog should burn off.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
It's even worse than Worcester right now because of school.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Oh good luck, everybody, have a great day at school.
I'm dead, Yelle, that chered download.

Speaker 8 (06:34):
Yeah, one point seven seconds of sports with Tyler.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Tyler's out for the week. I'll try to get through this.
Man is sweet. Would have been sweet, that it would
have Oh my god. However, the pounding the Red Sox
put on the Yankees down in the Bronx just made
for great weekend. Sock starter Dustin May yesterday gave up
five runs, including three home runs, in four and a
third innings. It was not to be. The Yankees take
the final game series seven to two, but the Socks

(07:01):
won three out of four, and the Yankees may never
recover now, especially from the twelfth to one beat down
Saturday that included a seven run ninth inning for the Socks.
Let's just go to the Yankees announcers on Saturday's game E.
How they were faring driven hepe.

Speaker 7 (07:19):
To left field, belly your back turning, looking see ya hey,
two one home run, five dollars.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
And it can't get much worse than this. Well, actually, Michael,
you said, I mean every once in a while, you
just you get embarrassed on the field. And this game
has this snowball.

Speaker 9 (07:43):
Crochet was the you know, the thing you had to
get through and he was just too good. But then
the Yankees have absolutely fallen apart here in the last
couple innies.

Speaker 10 (07:53):
Popped up.

Speaker 7 (07:55):
This will mercifully and the inning quite frankly, the Yankees
are getting schooled by the Red Sox here on a
Saturday afternoon.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Of the Bronx. Oh my god, that was so wonderful.
Oh god, what a note. One two one two Socks
are in Baltimore for series against the Orioles starting tonight.
A lot of nervous guys down in Foxborough. Tomorrow's the
NFL's cutdown day. Every team has to trim its roster

(08:24):
from ninety to fifty three players. So they're like going
to the locker opening it up, like, is there a
note in there? Would you come to my office? Pat's
opening at home against the Raiders September seventh, and congratulations.
Tommy Fleetwood finally won a PGA tournament and it was
a big one. After one hundred and sixty four tour starts,

(08:45):
he won the tour championship yesterday in the FedEx Cup
and with it a check or ten million dollars? Okay
for golf? What am I doing?

Speaker 3 (08:55):
When do we get our ten million dollar check? If
I could just straighten out that slice, I never sly
ten million dollars.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
It's happy day for Tommy Fleetwoods, Matt Sports.

Speaker 11 (09:10):
That's your home?

Speaker 2 (09:11):
Are you good for your home? Boston's Classic Rock one
hundred points have atu WZX.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
It's the Chuck Nolan Morning Show on Boston's Classic Rock.
And when you're going off the rails on a crazy.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Train with the free I heart radio at.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Take it to the roadways this morning. Maybe speed limits
are going to change based on how people actually drive.
I'm listening.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Can I get on this panel?

Speaker 2 (09:40):
You follow the rules all the time? Correct?

Speaker 3 (09:44):
What rules?

Speaker 2 (09:44):
What does your sweatshirt say today?

Speaker 3 (09:47):
I'm wearing a Matthew police sweatshirt in honor of K
nine Frankie, whose end of watch was July twenty six,
twenty twenty two. Thank you for your service, Frankie.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
All right, so I imagine you follow the rule of law.
You're wearing that.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Sure, we'll go with that.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
We'll talk about it. We'll discuss speed limits. Should they change?

Speaker 3 (10:04):
Ten and two right in the middle lane. Chuck at
the speed limit. We're not passing anybody.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
We're coming up next from ZL the Billy Corgan alarm
clock on Boston's classic rock. Shut your points, I have
a double z X. It's a Chuck Nolar Morning Show.
Daniel murt Tyler taking a week off here. We were
just talking about speed limits and how it feels kind
of bananas. Some of the speed limits as you're driving
around here just don't make sense.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Five, Come on, what are we doing?

Speaker 2 (10:32):
Apparently some states are looking to change speed limits, Massages
being one.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
Of them, which is shocking to me because I didn't
know this.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
But speed limits are based on studies going back to
like the nineteen thirties and nineteen forties. That is so
yeah OOA born from research was a widely accepted concept
known as the eighty five percent rule that suggested roades
posted speed should be tied to the fifteenth fastest vehicle

(11:00):
out of every one hundred traveling.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
Interesting, what is that? Shing? What a metroc?

Speaker 2 (11:06):
And it's been like that for decades.

Speaker 12 (11:08):
Man.

Speaker 3 (11:08):
I thought we had some backasswords stuff going on in
Massachusetts with regard to the laws. But that's the whole
other level.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
So there's an alternative to the eighty five percent rule,
known as city limits, which aims to minimize the risk
of injuries for all road uses by setting the speed
limit based on a formula the factors in the streets,
activity level, and the likelihood of conflicts such as collisions.
You're traveling some of the back roads out here, it's
like twenty five miles per hour out Metro West. Yeah,
and there's no housing, shot trees and forests, there's nobody around.

Speaker 3 (11:37):
Can we do it at least forty forty five safely?

Speaker 9 (11:39):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (11:39):
Yeah. Sammy notes, Yeah, he felt the frustration he can't
drive fifty flick. I was telling you guys before my
magic car, my Tesla, has the self driving thing, and
I tried that feature a few times, and the thing
that drove me crazy about it. It follows the speed
limit in the left lane, and you don't realize how
slow you're going unless you're falling allowing the speed limit exactly.

(12:01):
You're not going with the flow of traffic. You're kissing
everybody off.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
Anytime that I am in a trafficky situation where it
might be a little stop and go. You know, people
that drive one, twenty eight or ninety five. You know Wakefield,
I don't understand. I don't know if we've done a study.
I don't know what it is, if it's near the
interchange or what. Wakefield is always a nightmare. It doesn't
matter what time of day. That stretch on ninety five
north and south gets solar glare on the southbound side.

(12:28):
So I get that, but Wakefield is always a mess.
Like how but outside of that, I had a guy
I think I was headed like through Waltham tesla left lane,
probably two hundred feet in front of him. Yeah, the
rest of the traffic is picking up. He's just and
I drive by. He's leaning over the center clap the
auto conversation with his wife, not engaged in the driving

(12:51):
at all.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
See, it doesn't work, It does not work, and it
just pisses people off. More about Tesla's or.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
A big part of the reason we have traffic the
way we do is because of the pace police that
won't get out of the left lane.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
All right, I saw that this morning. I agree with you.
They should increase the fines for people traveling the left
lane and just cruising and it's a passing lane. Ask
get out of the way.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
You're not supposed to drive for more than one mile
on the passing lane. I believe.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
I saw a Subaru this morning in the left lane,
just cruising along, and an F one fifty was probably
about two and a half feet off the bumper. And
I watched it for a while, see what this was
gonna happen. How it's going to accelerate.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
No, no, no, no, just nothing, no sense of urgency, nothing
going on. I'm not gonna get out of the way.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
Just sat there and then eventually the high beams.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Can you just please move?

Speaker 2 (13:38):
Still nothing in the F one fifty just swung out
to the right and went around him, got back in
the left lane.

Speaker 3 (13:42):
Yeah, but and you got to give the look. You
have to give the look.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
You gotta do the look.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (13:47):
But the thing with you is you go beyond the look.
You're like my wife, she does beyond the look. The
hands start going, the fingers start going, the mouthed words
that begin with F and me going. Don't do that.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
I will assess the situation first. But if it's I
wait to see. If it's some dope like I'll give
it a second creeping up on him as I'm going by,
and I'm like, are they on the phone?

Speaker 9 (14:08):
Right?

Speaker 3 (14:09):
And then balls deep in the phone. So I'm like, hark, what.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Not the tap of the horn either, it's the angry.

Speaker 3 (14:16):
Horn, because get off the phone. Like, fine, if you're
gonna insist on being that person that's on your phone,
do it. Get out of the left lane, all right.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
But here's my thing with my wife.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
My order ring is like giving me no, you're going.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
Crazy right now. When I'm with my wife and she
does that, I always say, and it's true. If you're
out with a woman, it's a guy and a woman.
When the road rage incident happens, I'm the one who's
gonna get killed. All right, that's right, it's the sacrificial
you'll be doing a teary story on the news. I
don't know what happened.

Speaker 3 (14:45):
I merely looked at the man.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
He was such a nice guy. He always said, Hello,
it's collaborate. Let's be careful out there people.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Your thirty seconds of fame as a talk back away
leave us a messa with the talkback feature on the
Free I heard radio app then make wclshow number one
pre set. It's a chet No online show on Boston's
classic rock hit Us.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Up Baby six one hundred point seven. We're just talking
about people who lounge in the left lane, the passing lane. Yeah,
Scotty g from Lemonster is a professional driver. It's going
to name for that. What is it, Scotty, It's called.

Speaker 13 (15:25):
The left lane gang, left lane, game, left lane. They
just hanging out, hanging out on their electronics. The other day,
I saw some lady with her left foot up of
the desk, cutting her toenails with the right with the
phone on her right hand. You would not believe the
stuff that we see. It's absolutely absurd. What's even more
upstirred it is.

Speaker 6 (15:44):
They don't care. Now I'm on the air horn, but
vibrating their windows with the air horn, and they're flipping
me off. Mind your own business, buddy.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah, yeah, it's funny you say that. I was driving
Friday down to New York, my hell trip down there
to get my daughter's furniture out of her shoe box apartment,
and I ask the guy who had his left foot
out the windows, now, what are you doing? What are
you doing that's not comfortable? I'm sorry, but you're trying
to show how cool you are. Look at me.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
I'm flat, so care free, can if I mean yes, no,
go ahead?

Speaker 6 (16:16):
Yes, So truck drivers, I'm sure you don't know if
we get caught just holding any electronic device, the finest
two thousand, seven hundred and fifty dollars. Damn So a
car someone texting is what one hundred or something, I'm not.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Sure what it is, twenty fifty truck.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
You can't mess around when you got like CDLs, you
can't mess around that stuff.

Speaker 6 (16:41):
You can you can actually really look that up to
to see that.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
I'm not Yeah, but you guys never get caught because
you have to look up to see what's he doing
up there? Way up there? What is that?

Speaker 6 (16:53):
You would be surprised? How many would you listen to me?
If you ever see a truck swerving down the road,
just stay away from it because they're on the phone.
There should be no reason that truck is swerving.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
Oh my god, I see that all the time. I'm
always looking at the front wheel. Yes, that's right, it's
going back and forth. Yes, and then it hits the
be aware it hits the what are the vibrator bars
on the side of the I'm awake, scaring the hell
out of everybody. Be safe out there, Scotty.

Speaker 6 (17:19):
G Oh, thank you so much, you guys. How about
glorious dake.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
It's the Chuck Nolan Morning Show with Danielle Murr Tyler
taking the week off. We got Pelosi here with us
over the weekend. Maybe looking for some fine dining. Yeah,
you know, spend some money. Get out there, stop making
dinner for night. A couple of a couple of places
making some changes. I'm sure you heard about cracker barrel.
I have never been in a cracker barrel. Have you
guys been in a cracker barrel?

Speaker 3 (17:43):
I have stepped foot into one.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Jack, but I've not eaten that one. I Jack, get
in here. I just want to hear what it's like.
I've never He's our experimental. I haven't even seen like
photos of the inside of a cracker barrel. Like farm.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
Yeah, Like it's cholesterol. That's that's the atmosphere. It's cholesterol.
That's what I feel like. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
I love cracker barrel. Oh my god. Describe a cracker
barrel experience.

Speaker 5 (18:13):
Well, you you go in and there's just crap on.

Speaker 2 (18:15):
All the walls, okay for one like farm tools, that
kind of a things.

Speaker 5 (18:21):
To be very rustic looking. And when you walk in,
you walk in through I guess it's their gift shop. Yeah,
call it the like the country store. Wait, they make
you go through that first before you get to the restaurant.

Speaker 9 (18:32):
Yea.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
And the barrel displays.

Speaker 5 (18:34):
Yeah, Chochke's clothing, candy, uh, ridiculous sodas, you know, the
kinds don't find anywhere else, including moxy, weird gums, that
kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (18:48):
And then they also have like the rack of uh
like DVDs of like Leave It to Beaver, the shell factory.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
That that brand that puts.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
You know when TV was good, Yeah, back then.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
And that's just that's not even the food parts. Then
you get into the actual dining room. I will say
it's incredibly affordable. I always go for the chicken and dumplings.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
It is. It's actually pretty. Is it good? I find
it to be tolerable. Yeah, I can stomach it. Are
there any around here?

Speaker 5 (19:19):
There's one in I I frequent the one in Sturbridge.
In Sturbridge, there's one I think it's rent as Oxen
Park to stop them.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
One in Tucksbury?

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Is there really there?

Speaker 5 (19:32):
There are people that do like tours around the country
going to like every Cracker Barrel in existence. We there's
someone that works in this building that does that. With Hooters,
they go to like every Hooters they do, they do like.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
The that's a single general I would imagine this. I
believe you. I believe so well. Cracker Barrel just went
through changing their logo. The old logo was the the
old man in overalls leaning on the barrel, and they
got rid of the streamline. It just says cracker Barrel.
And I imagine they did that to try to get
a younger audience to come in there to try out

(20:07):
the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
But people went nuts, oh saying I don't think I've
seen the word woke written so many times as a wolf.

Speaker 5 (20:15):
And it's not just the logo too. They're changing the
interior as well, that they're making it more drab more.
I guess monochrome doing away with the rustic.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
Were they losing money? Was it doing badly Cracker Barrel,
That's a good question. I wasn't going there enough. Well
they are now because they they lost one hundred million
dollars in market value. Thursday of stock just nosedived after
they get rid of the old man in his cracker barrel.
I'm still gonna go. I got that from here.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
I want to go to one. I want to check
it out.

Speaker 3 (20:49):
It's just it's it's so not like from a design perspective,
it looks like somebody whipped it up in like a
very basic graphics.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Is very basic. This reminds me of Friendly. Do you
remember when Friendis used to look like a Friendly's the
brass rail in the wood, and it looked like it,
and then they modernized it and then it was over
you to bring back the field.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
He's a feeling the smell of the ice cream water
for the soup.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
And then Friendlies became like sherbet colored. Yeah. No, I
want the brass rail. I want the I want my
frap and that metal thing that holds the glass it
had it had the sink with that constant stream of water. Gold.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
Yeah, a little dribble. There's so many flavors in there.

Speaker 5 (21:28):
I knew something was up a couple of years ago,
a cracker barrel and they started serving alcohol. They didn't
serve alcohol until maybe twenty twenty two. It doesn't seem
to fit, No, it doesn't. It's weird. It was bizarre.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
I will say.

Speaker 5 (21:39):
I'm also incredibly out of the demographic for Cracker Barrel
in both age and weight.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Well, you mentioned Hooters. Hooters is going through a lot
of changes. They're struggling as well, but they're not changing
the logo.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
They're fighting in bankruptcy court right now. There's a guy
who's trying to take control of fifty locations. The one
on one is still open.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
Correct as far as I'm wearing.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
The two o's are out though, So it just says Potters.
So this guy wants to transform the back to what
he calls delightfully tacky. He says, I don't think you're
going to see a bunch of butt cheeks hanging out.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
That's the whole reason we go.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
He's a kitch explaining his plant to ditch the bikini
style bottom some restaurants adopted in favor of the traditional
orange short, the dolphin short. My eyes are right, I
don't mind those. Yeah, that's fine, but I guess some
people are pushing back on that as well. People get
upset any kind of change like that.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
They do.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Remember the video of the Hooters opening in the villages,
and there was like four hundred people waiting in line,
like funning through their kids. People and scooters. They were
scooter parking in the lot. Remember that.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
Yes, have ever been to a Twin Peaks? I have
not in Florida. That's an experience.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
Isn't there like a tilted Kilt too?

Speaker 4 (22:55):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (22:55):
The tilted kilt? Yeah, all those restaurants.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
Used to the list. Next visit. We got to bring
back Chuck's Bar and Grill. We gotta get out there.
It's the Chuck Noland.

Speaker 4 (23:07):
Morning Show on Boston's Classic Rocket seven w z lex.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
And on the Highway to Hell with the free iHeartRadio app.
You gotta get down to Hooters, have the train catch
the game?

Speaker 2 (23:21):
Did you sell them? Also?

Speaker 13 (23:22):
Way?

Speaker 2 (23:23):
Still? Please? Do you gotta get down to Hooter? When
I was living down in Miami, I dated a Hooters girl.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
Of course you did.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Conversations were yeah, pretty much. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
When I managed Coyote Ugly when it was open on
Friend Street in Boston. Now I think it's the hotel again.
Hooters used to be right next door there, sure, and
so at the end of the night the cooks used
to pack up when they closed and bring over all
the leftover unsauced wings and at the time they were
serving King grab legs.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Watch my god, King crablake.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
Yeah it was. It was.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
I ate a lot of crawd that didn't last. That's
too expensive. My god, God, I hate so many wings
waiting for her.

Speaker 3 (24:13):
All right now, that does.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
All other parts of the relationship were really good, but
sure conversation. We got Adam Sandler tickets coming up. Sevent
ten Classic Rock Challenge of ZLX.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
From the Showy dot Com WCLX Studios. It's the download
with Danielle on Boston's Classic Rock one hundred pointy seven WCLX.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
Well, when they give you the warnings about the storms
and the rip currents, I know you think God doesn't
look that bad.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
I've lived here my whole life.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
It's that bad, Okay. A couple of incidents over the
weekend very tragic. Seventeen year old boys died after he
and his sixty one year old father were pulled from
the water at Hampton Beach Sunday evening. Please say. The
teen was swept away by a strong current and his
dad became distressed trying to save him. Lifeguards and a
firefighter responded, but the boy died later at Exeter Hospital.
His father is in stable condition swimming in Hampton Beach,

(25:06):
termporarily closed due to dangerous condition.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
That it's so sad. Like you said, we grow up
around here, We're used to going to the beach and
you can't see a rip current can't.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
In fact, it's misleading because it looks like it's a
calm area and.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
Yeah, water absolutely. I told you guys, I get stuck
in one. It's it's terrifying and you have to remind yourself,
don't panic, don't panic. Get on my back, you know whatever,
your strongest swimming style, yes, and just wait until you
stop getting pulled out and then go parallel.

Speaker 3 (25:34):
You can get back in.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
But I can't imagine the horror of that father.

Speaker 3 (25:37):
Oh, I can't know, watching his sun No nightmare, and
then you try to go in and save him. My god. Also,
rescue crew is still searching for a man in his
fifties after a forty seven foot vessel capsized off Salisbury
Beach on Saturday amid rough serf from Hurricane Aaron. One
person was rescued and hospitalized with non life threatening injuries.
The Coast Guard, state police, and local responders remain on

(25:57):
seeing Salisbury Beach stayed closed over the weekend again due
to those rip currents. Families in Saugusts now that we're
in back to school season, say that they were blindsided
after the district quietly ended its weight lists for school
bus seats, leaving some children without transportation as classes resume.
Officials say budget cuts forced them to fund the only
state mandated service for K through six students living more

(26:18):
than two miles away. Basically what happened was before if
you lived within the two mile radius, you could apply
for a wait list if there were any extra seats
on the bus. They got rid of that option, and
parents are like, what the hell. So a lot of
parents say they would be willing to pay for the
extra seats if they were given the option, but the

(26:38):
district says, we're not doing it.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Wow, we had to pay for our kids school bus. Yeah,
I don't know how many towns do that. But it's
not cheap.

Speaker 3 (26:45):
Also, yeah, it's definitely not cheap. Yeah, but I know
there are a lot of communities I think, like PEBD
does the if you're within the two mile window you
can pay for the extra seats. Things like that. And
a Dorchester Post office employee was hot hospitalized Friday morning
after a leaking package. You never want to have a
weaking package at the Grove Hall branch left them with

(27:07):
skin or irritation. During scanning, Boston Fire determined the substance
was a non hazardous soap type product.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
I guarantee you that's from my wife, all right, It's
one of her products she has delivered I think almost daily.
Well scrub a dub okay, whatever it is, something I
can't pronounce.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
I'm allergic to it. It's a hope that worker was
evaluated by EMS and official say for the details remain
under review. Sixty six degrees in Boston right now, high
have seventy eight on the way. It's gonna be a
sunny day, but it's still soupy. I'm Danielle that you're
down load.

Speaker 4 (27:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (27:38):
One point seven seconds of sports with Tyler.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
What a weekend in New York. Chunkin for Tyler here
for sports. A sweet would have been incredible, But just
the absolute pounding the Red Sox put on the Yankees
down on the Brons made for a great weekend for
socks bands. Unfortunately, sock starter Dustin May gave up five
runs yesterday, includ three home runs in four and third innings.

(28:02):
The Yankees take the final game of the series seven
to two, but the Socks won three out of four.
The Yankees may never recover from that twelve to one
beat down on Saturday that included a seven run ninth
inning for the Songs. Let's check in with the Yankees
announcers on Saturday.

Speaker 7 (28:21):
Driven deep to left field, pell and your back turning
looking see yu field. They two on home run five
dollas and it can't get much worse than this.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
Hold my beer.

Speaker 9 (28:37):
Every once in a while, you just you get embarrassed
on the field. And this game has this snowball. Then
the Yankees have absolutely fallen apart.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
Here the Yankees are getting schooled.

Speaker 7 (28:47):
By the Red Sox here on a Saturday afternoon in
the Bronx.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
They were exposed for the frauds that they are. That
was so cool. Socks are in Baltimore for a series
against the Orioles starting tonight. Down in Foxborough, players are
just starting to arrive here, Hey Brook Gay, God, they're nervous.
Tomorrow is the NFL's cutdown day. Every team has the
trimman's roster from ninety to fifty three players. Hey, Joe,

(29:15):

Okay? Should I bring every Just bring the playbook? That's
opening home against the Raiders September seventh.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
We need some some practical jokers back on the squad.
We need like more Matt lights around, like when I
used to fill them with peanuts, packing peanuts and stuff
like that. We need a Maddy lights situation.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
Let's go. Do we have one right now?

Speaker 3 (29:40):
I don't think so. I haven't heard about anything. Maybe
I'm wrong. I'm not spending a lot of time in Foxborough,
so you guys can correct me.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
I haven't heard of anybody really good sense of humor yet. Anyway,
rad will scaring everybody.

Speaker 3 (29:50):
Well, I know.

Speaker 2 (33:48):

Speaker 3 (33:48):
No, right, because he's got stuff to do. It's a
pick up with, It's a catchup with.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
It follows him wherever he goes.

Speaker 3 (33:53):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
Is no way this weekend I'm jumping on a plane
going to Scotland bringing my order to school. It's going
to be a bittersweet moment. So very proud of her
going for a master's degree the University of Edinburgh. Good job, Haley,
excellent jomb but saying goodbye, that's gonna be a tough.

Speaker 3 (34:11):
Onelude magna cum laud.

Speaker 10 (34:15):
Y.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
Yeah, she did message you over the weekend, you messaged me. Oh,
we'll get into that. I love how Danielle has like
worked her way into your family.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
I have and Tyler's so mad about it. It's the best.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
And they all think you're a hero for some reason.
I don't understand they're within your web. So flying, of course,
has become such a joy. You look at videos of
like the nineteen seventies when they had the carving station
coming down the aisle with the giant turkey and the
whole bar. People could trust. People weren't wearing pajamas on

(34:51):
the plane.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
No smiley face or the bullet holes for the forehead.
Everything you could smoke. Every seat looked like first class.

Speaker 2 (34:58):
There was so.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
Much room, so roomy. Now it's just like a cattle call.

Speaker 2 (35:03):
Now you can get a seat a window seat without
a window because they added extra aisles to the plane
after it was made, so everything shifted so you could
be sitting there with just a wall up against you.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
Yeah. The problem is that the seats are not made
by the same manufacturer as the airplane shell, so the
configurations aren't always going to line up appropriately. And I've
I've only run into this one time where this surprised
me and I was like, you, son of it. However,
airplanes should not be charging. And I don't know if
there's a good easy way to do an override where

(35:35):
you know that equipment like, oh, it's an a three
to twenty one like Row eleven, you're not going to
have a window. I don't know if you can default
to that automatically, but I was looking. I fell down
a rabbit hole about this whole non window seat thing
over the weekend, and some travel forums and people like, well,
you need to go on seat guru, you need to go.
The average traveler is not going to know that they
need to see whether or not their window seat has

(35:57):
a window. Of course not, that's a ridiculous sexct.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
So it should be like Femway Park. If you're going
to have a windowless window seat, it should be like
an obstructed view.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
And it's also like depending on the plane, if it's
a really if I'm flying your economy and I'm in
a window seat like ice like iceland Air, I'm not
going to pay for business class in Icelander because it's
it's basically premium economy. So it's not for the four
and a half hours it's going to take me to
get to Raikivik, it's not worth it. I've sat in
a window seat before because I'm like, all right, the
views are nice. If I'm flying overnight, maybe you'll see

(36:28):
the northern lights. But the I mean they're packing them
in there. You don't have a lot of room, and
outs so tight. I'm claustrophobic as it is. Over the years,
I have learned to love an aisle seat because I
can get up, I can stretch and go to the bathroom.
You don't have to climb over people. However, if it's
an overnight flight, I'm like a right, maybe I can
lean against the wall and sleep. If you're even mildly claustrophobic,
not having that window there, yes, makes it so much worse.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
That's me right there. I'm six to two. I like
to sit in your window. Got the vertigo thing. I
got to see the horizon all that six to two.
I'm cramped in against that wind, and then the seat
in front of me comes back. No, you're done. I
have to will myself through the flight. Don't lose it.
Don't lose it.

Speaker 3 (37:06):
You're fine, you're safe.

Speaker 2 (37:08):
Well, now you're talking about how tightly we're packed in there.
Beginning January twenty seventh, Southwest Airlines is going to require
passengers who quote encroach upon the neighboring seat to proactively
purchase an additional ticket. Yes, if they are spilling over
into your area they have to buy another ticket.

Speaker 3 (37:28):
Yes, there. I think some airlines have a policy whereby
if you buy the extra seat and the plane goes
out with open seats, they will refund you at the
price of the extra seat. You know, And I don't
want this to come across as ablest because I know
everybody lives in a specific type of body and people
struggle with all kinds of things, especially related to wait.

(37:48):
But you can't be stuffing a large body into a
seat on a seven thirty seven. That's that's taking up
there's not enough rown.

Speaker 2 (37:57):
It's gonna affect other people.

Speaker 3 (37:58):
It's going to affect other people.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Us was the choice, they say, for many plus sized
passengers because they weren't charging for that, right, But now
they're going to start doing that.

Speaker 3 (38:06):
Yeah, people are pissed.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
Well, but I get it though. I've been in that
situation where your seat becomes like half a seat because
someone is pushing up against you like that, and.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
That's and you know that's uncomfortable for them. It's embarrassing
for them too. Sure, it's a tough thing all around,
but I you know, there's I don't know how you
enforce that happy medium, but there's you got to figure
something out.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
Yeah, we're bigger people today and you know, oh my god, yes,
I mean you want to freak me out beyond how
tight everything's going to be packed in. I get on
a plane, I see an ash tray on the on
the armrest, Like, old is this thing? How old is
this plane? Are we going to make it? Twenty passengers

(38:49):
are taken off a British air waste plate before takeoff
because the plane had reached its weight limit.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
This has been going on since I worked at the airlines.
I don't know why people are complaining about this. It's
a load issue.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
You you and you get.

What do we have going on today, Danielle.

Speaker 3 (39:45):
Well, back to school related. It's not a teacher with
only fans this time, but it involves going back to work.
You got an email from Jeff and Ashburnham. Well, my
wife gave birth to our first child. She decided to
scale back to part time work. Since then, we've I've
had two more kids, and for nearly a decade, I've
carried the bulk of the income while she's worked three
days a week. Not a problem. I supported her wanting

(40:07):
more time with the kids. But now our youngest is
about just about to start school full time Monday through Friday,
eight forty five to three fifteen. Translation, she'll finally have
kid free work days. I suggested this would be a
perfect time for her to go back to full time work,
so I can leave the stressful consulting world for a
normal job. She lost it, saying I'm selfish and she

(40:27):
wants to keep two weekdays for herself to have me time.
I said, okay, but then I want Saturdays for myself. Well,
that caused a problem. We've shared parenting duties pretty evenly
and honestly on workdays sometimes I do more. But apparently
me suggesting she used those school hours to actually work
makes me the bad guy. Am I the a hole

(40:47):
for suggesting my wife go back to full time work?

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Ooh?

Speaker 1 (40:50):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (40:53):
I have a lot of friends who run into this
situation where like early on they were like, okay, you
know what, I'm going to stay home with the kids,
do the work, and then the third or fourth kid
goes off to school and they're like, what do we do?

Speaker 2 (41:06):
You know, that's that was the Nolan house. Really, that
was our situation where Kelly had a career going in
radio for herself. Yes, and when our daughter came along,
we tried daycare for a little while. She couldn't take it.
It's like, this is crazy. Can't be dropping off our daughters.
So she stayed home and I was the breadwinner. And

(41:28):
then our son came along, I was the breadwinner, and
then when he went off to kindergarten, I was the breadwinner. However,
I thought it was great she could be there when
they got home from school and be a part of
their day and do a lot of activities with them,
that kind of thing. And while she was doing that,
she was also developing her own business at home and

(41:50):
she started a second career, very successful second career, and
you can transition out of working.

Speaker 3 (41:56):
Yes, not if they keep going to Scotland.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
So, Jeff, I understand what he's saying. I get it. God,
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (42:09):
Though, it's tricky. It's tricky if how many kids is
three kids? Three kids and this is the third one.
I feel like, I don't know, depending on your I mean.

Speaker 2 (42:18):
And also extra income is a big, big too. Everything
costs so much right.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
Now, it doesn't sound like they're hurting, but it also
sounds like he's really busting his house with this consulting
gig to like cover everything. So maybe a little bit
more even distribution of the workload, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
To help out. And then the asking for a couple
of me days.

Speaker 3 (42:38):
Yeah no, that's self care time, honey.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
With kids, there is no me days.

Speaker 3 (42:43):
No, not for a long time, you know, Modilan on Saturday? No,
what do you mean, Jeff, what do you mean? Well,
it's my meet it's my day. You can't have them
with the boys.

Speaker 2 (42:52):
Yeah, boy, I'm going to Hooters. They have new uniforms.
I have to do the research. So I don't know.
I'm torn on this one.

Speaker 3 (43:03):
It's it's such a it's a very nuanced situation because
you don't know, like what their deal is. Yeah, you know,
if I had a few financial statements, maybe I could
break this down a little further and be like, yes
you have to or no, you're fine without it.

Speaker 2 (43:17):
But and I'm sure a lot of people are going
through this decision right now, especially right now of school
starting off and what have you. And I don't think
you're torn as much as you're afraid. Kelly's listening. Well,
I'm not afraid of her. Okay, all right, I put
my foot down. Yeah, And Tyler's not afraid of It's
my castle, all right, is it? Well, it's a nicely

(43:37):
insulated so anyway, Yes, that's correct. But Pelosi, when you
have kids, how are you going to handle it in
terms of who's working and doing what? Yeah, I'm staying home.
What are you crazy? You're going to stay home. I
am an absolute feminist. I'm going to stay home. I'm
gonna support the family. I'm going to make the home.

(43:57):
You know, more guys are doing that stay stay at
home and say modern we're modern duty. That's right. I
just haven't met any, but I read about them. I
hear about to stay at home dads. I just haven't
met any, but I would have loved that ye play
with the kids and stuff. I would do that, total disaster.
The house sticky, everything would be sticky.

Speaker 3 (44:20):
Everywhere, staying on all the laundry.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
Are you ever gonna empty the baby Genie? I can't
even walk in here.

Speaker 3 (44:26):
Genie's the worst.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
You take that and you hang out on the front
of the House of Halloween. Oh my god, I don't
know ed what do you think? She is? Totally the
she is, Wow, no doubt she wins.

Speaker 14 (44:43):
That race like secretariat. I mean, give me a break
that she wants two days for herself. And then he
even said he wants to hang out on Saturdays with
his buddies or something and she doesn't want him to. Yeah, yeah,
you know I'm calling a lawyer on that one.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
Wow, big old deal breaker.

Speaker 2 (45:00):
I mean, we all need some free time sometime to
rechargetlish unbelieved. Yeah, but having kids, little kids, it's a
twenty four hour day job.

Speaker 3 (45:08):
You can't get away from them.

Speaker 2 (45:10):
You got that as a matter of fact right now.

Speaker 14 (45:11):
But but now things have changed. They're not little kids
anymore in school.

Speaker 2 (45:16):
Yeah, but they're not little. They're still need Yeah, I undeveloped.

Speaker 14 (45:20):
Well, she can still work half a day, then, I mean,
why does she why does she have the right met
days that he doesn't.

Speaker 3 (45:27):
Sure, you're right, it's gonna be fair.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
You gotta make it fair. But there's still so much
work when they're little and in school, kindergarten, first grade,
second grade. I mean cleaning out my daughter's stuff and
bringing it up from New York over the weekend and
taking stuff down from the attic. She found an old
doll of hers and she pressed the button and it
still worked. That was like from twenty years ago. First
of all, all right, it made crazy noises and reminded
me of the time that she was just standing by

(45:50):
the side of my bed holding this doll and I'm
a light sleeper, and she hit the button and it
said something like that, and I woke up and I
just saw her staring at me with the dead eyes.
I still remember that. So stuff like that can happen
at any time. It's a twenty four hour a day job.
He talkback here at checking sr Jeff all right, oh,

(46:16):
I realized that was a talkback, and somebody had the
radio turn up to oh, that's what it wants. All right,
we will clean that up, all right.

WCLX your home for the Chef Nolan Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
Followed the nonsense at WCLX on Instagram and TikTok.

Speaker 2 (46:35):
We're in the middle of the drama right now.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
So much drama?

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Am I the a hole? The story of Jeff and
his wife Back to school time. You could do a
quick recamp for us, Danielle would be great.

Speaker 3 (46:46):
Yes, no problem. So Jeff from Ashburnham sent us an email.
For the last ten years, she's been working part time
three days a week raising the kids. He's been doing
a consulting job, which sounds like it's kicking his ass.
Hates the job, covering most of the financial burden for
the family. Now that their last kid is starting school

(47:07):
next week, he thinks, hey, might be nice for me
to step back from consulting, get a normal nine to
five so I can have some more balance in life.
Maybe you go back to work full time, honey, She says, ah,
I would like those two days for self care.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
I need care.

Speaker 3 (47:22):
It's a me time after being with your children constantly.
And then Jeff said, okay, well then I want Saturdays
to myself and wife didn't like that.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
She's digging in, so.

Speaker 3 (47:31):
We need to know who's being the ale.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
Caroline is late for work, but she wants to weigh
in on this. Of course she gets docked. I'm gonna
dog it for that first hour. Caroline.

Speaker 13 (47:42):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (47:42):
I raise my children. I know all about this. When
they're little, you want them home, especially today's world. Okay,
but when they get in school, that's when the real
job starts. You don't want to latch keith child. You
don't want that kid to be dependent on other people.
And it sounds like if they don't say, if that
man doesn't say I want to spend time with you

(48:05):
on Saturday, I want time with my friends. That's a
whole nother issue.

Speaker 2 (48:11):
Well, but don't you need time away from each other?
Doesn't it you have sence, makes the heart profonder and all.

Speaker 4 (48:18):
A mother's job never ends you are twenty four to seven.
A man's job, I feel ends at five o'clock, six
o'clock when they get home. That's it. They're not on duty.
At least when I was like, I think that's high.

Speaker 3 (48:33):
I don't think you can make a blanket statement about that.

Speaker 2 (48:36):
No, No, it's it's not like that anymore. Fathers participate
so much in the raising of the children.

Speaker 4 (48:41):
You participate, Yes, they do, but mentally it is a
mother's job to raise the child. That's my opinion.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
All right, well, appreciate it, Caroline. I get to work.

Speaker 4 (48:51):
You're late, I am late, I am light.

Speaker 2 (48:54):
All right, thanks for calling in. All right, wow, interesting, interesting, Okay,
little old school on that that one. But right, so
your father gets home six one seven seven. What do
you guys think you can taxt double theszlex and your
message to seven O four seven O. We love the talkbacks.

Speaker 11 (49:13):
Like this, Hey, Chuck, I actually think they have both
a holes. If you're into a third kid and you
haven't figured this stuff out, and you guys are both
being a holes about it, and that's the deal. I mean,
you should know after the first one that you're going
after a second one, and then the third one comes
along and you don't have your plant sit down, you're
an a hole.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
Yeah right, all right, I gotta figure that stuff of time.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
I like when we were trying to decide whether or
not to have the third one because two is perfect
in the vehicle backseat, two kids, two adults in the front,
third one third row. I thought you were deciding in
the backseat, throws everything off. Yes we got a dog instead. Well, yes,
there's that.

Speaker 12 (49:54):
Yeah, dude, she is a complete a hole. Let me
guess she He has a nicer of the two cars.
While he drives around a pos Honda Civic to go
to work, and he stressed out as all can be.

Speaker 11 (50:09):
Dude, Yeah, I feel for you.

Speaker 12 (50:13):
I went through it. You gotta go for the big game, man,
telling you trust me from experience and as always love you. Danielle.

Speaker 2 (50:23):
I'm guessing he's on his third marriage, maybe fourth by
this time.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
If he's on his fourth marriage and still banging out
three kids, good for you in your account.

Speaker 2 (50:31):
Brings up a good point there about the vehicles, though,
I went through that first time around. I had the
Mercury Comet. She had the nice Honda. I was driving
the squeak. Won't be it. You were driving a Comet
into like into the nineties. Oh my god, powder blue
was powder blue? Oh my god? I thing was such

(50:51):
a dog. I think she could be the a hole.

Speaker 15 (50:53):
But maybe what he needs to do is say he's
going to take this other job that's less stressful, and
then lay out for her, you know, assuming he does
lay out for her what it would mean to them
financially and say we're going to have to give up X,
y Z, and then see what she says about that.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
All right, it's a good approach. Point, get the spreadsheet out. Yeah,
here's the math. Here's what we will be able to do.
Here is what we won't be able to do. She
asking us for advice. I don't know if spreadsheets are
going to be a thing that happens. That's probably not
going to happen. Point, Melissa, what do you.

Speaker 3 (51:25):
Think I agree with him?

Speaker 8 (51:28):
I think that, And I have a mother, both my children.
I have a daughter who graduated last year at thirteen
year old, and I went back to work, and after
going back to work that, you know, my career flourished,
my relationship got.

Speaker 2 (51:42):
Better with him.

Speaker 8 (51:43):
So I'm in agreeance with him. You know, I think
that they need to compromise. You know, she wants a
time alone, he wants time alone. But if you want
to take that job, you know, it's he goes hand
in hand. He paid all the bills. Well, she did
read the children, but it's it goes you're going in
the same direction.

Speaker 7 (51:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
I like that. You know, you had the opportunity, you
had your career going, and then you put it on
pause to take care of the kids, and then you
go back to your career or start a new career.
After that, you appreciate it more. You're older, you're more experienced. Yes,
so you appreciate going back into the workforce.

Speaker 11 (52:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (52:14):
I mean I created, you know, so much more, just
not just for myself, but for my family, you know,
connecting with other people. I don't know why women want
to hold on to that, to be honest with you,
I get it. But when your kids are in school
and you're not your home, it's boring. You're not contributing,
you're not really doing anything. You're you know, and I

(52:35):
find that to be if if I were to go backwards,
I would want I would I would have went back
to work a little bit sooner because it created more
of an independence again for me.

Speaker 2 (52:46):
Very good.

Speaker 3 (52:46):
It's a good point.

Speaker 2 (52:47):
That's an excellent point. Thank you, thank you.

Speaker 3 (52:50):
That's so personality dependent, though it is. I know, a
very big split right down the middle of women that
I know, like some of them would rather be home
and do the kids stuff and keep up at the
house and do like the whole trad wife thing. And
some of them are like, Nope, you're good, you're weaned.
I'm going back to work.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
But you go from taking care of the kids at
home when they're little, all of a sudden they're gone
for big chunk of the day, and you have to
fill up that time during the day, and either you
gonna do a productive league working out or whatever you're
gonna do, or you're gonna start watching daytime TV and
be just addicted to Kelly Clarkson.

Speaker 3 (53:22):
Now, let me ask you what happens if you have
the child at home and then the child goes after
school and you go back to work, and then you
have to be working with the man child all day.
Do the benefits out weigh.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
The risks that will we do? Anyway?

Speaker 3 (53:36):
Though, Well, that's why I'm bringing it up. He's not here, but.
