I haven't had a donut in a hot minute.

Speaker 4 (01:53):

I didn't know what the hell that was about what
it is National Donut Day, all right.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Plus we got this guy riding around on a bike
right now, hitting one hundred dunks all around Boston. And
if you find him, he says he'll give you a
dunk card.

We get stuff to give away today, Classic Rock Challenge,

one hundred dollars gift card for the concessions that's going
to be happening at nine o'clock. That's a full day,

(02:51):
a lot going on. Z. Let's get going today.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
Yes, Stones to get Us started from Boston's Classic Rock
one hundred points up at dou WZX. It spans the
globe like a super highway and it is called that
download with Danielle.

Speaker 6 (03:08):
I never know what you're gonna hear America will hear
my two cents on Boston's classic rock one hundred point
seven w ZLX.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
After intense pressure from the community and local politicians, an
eighteen year old Milford student was released on bond after
six days and iced attention following a traffic stop. Marcello
comes to Silva, described harsh conditions, no showers, and sharing
a toilet with forty other people.

Speaker 7 (03:35):
Nobody should be in here, Like most people down there
are all workers. They're all they all got caught going
to work. And like these people have These people have
have families, man, like they have kids to go home to.
And there's like genuine criminals out there that people aren't
giving attention to. They're getting good people that don't deserve
to be here. I haven't showered in six days. I

(03:56):
haven't done anything. The only thing I could do is
thank God, every Dave, because that's all I would do.
I would pray there God, He's just.

Speaker 5 (04:03):
A kid sleeping on a concrete floor with like thirty guys,
a kid who came here.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
When he was seven. Yeah, the nuanced situation a lot,
It definitely is. He's now waiting for the next step
in his emigration case. You know, we don't often get
too political on the Chucklolan Morning Show, but yesterday it's
kind of hard to ignore the big breakup that was
happening over on Twitter between Elon Musk and President Trump.

Speaker 4 (04:25):
The bromance is over. It's over.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
And as we mentioned off air earlier, you know, Tyler
called it a while ago, saying, you know, how long
is it going to be before this blows up? I
think it took longer than people thought.

Speaker 4 (04:35):
Oh I had the under I would have lost money
on that bed. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
So Elon Musk on X yesterday claimed that Donald Trump's
name appears in the Jeffrey Epstein files and that's why
we haven't gotten any info about it. Oh didn't we
already know that?

Speaker 8 (04:48):
We did.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
His people release the info about that back in February.
But I feel like Elon is hinting it a deeper
involvement than maybe they were acknowledged. Yes. The White House,
of course, has dismissed the claim, noting that trum Trump
had long distanced himself from Epstein and that no new
info had been released. Trump fired back, accusing Musk of
turning on him over policy disputes and what he called

(05:10):
personal grievances. Drone footage captured three swimmers getting swept up
by massive waves at a beach in Acapulco after Tropical
Storm Alvin. Despite warnings, the group entered the surf. There's
your first mistake. Then they vanished under some huge swells.
Witnesses say they did appear to be unharmed. The storm's
remnants continue to fuel dangerous surf and rip currents along

(05:32):
Mexico's west coast throughout the weekend. Firefighters battle the large
blaze in a triple decker on Payton Street early this
morning in Revere. This flames spread to the roof of
a neighboring home before crews managed to contain the fire
Teams stayed on scene, dousing the structure and checking for
lingering hot spots. And there's a ground beef recall, like
the food is getting ready.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
We're scrilling this weekend.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
We've got the storm stuff, We've got the food recalls.
There's not a lot of people working at the inspectional
facilities in the NOAA. It's you know, a little slim
pickens over here. Cucumbers can kill you too, right, Yeah, Well,
it's the tomatoes that can kill you. Well, tomatoes cucumbers
are different, the cucumbers of the different situation. The tomatoes
are the deadly salmonella. However, this ground beef recall involves

(06:14):
ground beef that was sold at Hole Foods. Whole Foods.
It's Friday, and they're looking at a possible E. Coli
contamination that's in the one pound packages of organic rancher beef.
Purchase that brand before many times E.

Speaker 4 (06:27):
Coli that would be poop.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Yeah, it's the poop bacteria. The beef has June nineteenth
and June twentieth used by dates. May still be in
your homes or freezers, so check that out. Consumers are
urged to discard the beef and sanitize storage areas. Sanitize
it immediately. Sixty nine degrees in Boston right now, I
have seventy seven on decades cloudy.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
It's a little hazy, but it's gonna be.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
It's gonna be that hot haze today, So prap yourself
for it. I'm Danielle that you're downloaded.

Speaker 9 (06:53):
Yeah, one point.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
Seven seconds of sports with Tyler. All right, So the
big news coming out of yesterday into Friday morning here
is Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, what's up with that? Signed with
the Steelers. No surprise. I mean, everybody kind of knew
it was gonna happen. It just took forever, I know.
But why do it a one year deal? A quarterback
is something you make an investment in. Well, funny you
should say that. Here's the reason why the other three

(07:16):
quarterbacks in the QB room right now. Mason Rudolph, who's
back with the Steelers now after a year with the Titans.
All right, this guy's done basically nothing. Will Howard who's
the rookie sixth round pick out of Ohio State. He's
a sixth round pick. How much can they expect from him?
And Skyler Thompson who was a seventh round pick with
the Dolphins back in twenty twenty two. They just got him,

(07:37):
so they're just writing off the year. They're just trying
to get hetty. He gets to see Aaron Rodgers playing
a Steelers years, which is not the Steelers way. Which
is interesting because that's a true Really. I mean, when
you think about the best run organizations in football, I
would probably put them first. Oh yeah, I mean they're
they're known for it. Great coaching everything. So this is
kind of a weird transitional year with years I should say,

(08:00):
since Ben Roethlisberger retired. It'll be interesting. It's gonna be interesting.
But here's a Steelers super fan, Steven A. Smith on
this signing but no.

Speaker 3 (08:07):
Surprise, but now looks like it's official.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
Aaron Rodgers gonna.

Speaker 10 (08:11):
Be a bad man as a Steeler man.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
How do we feel about it? I feel great, real,
I feel great.

Speaker 10 (08:17):
Listen, do you understand that in the last two years,
the Big Ben Roethlisberger got left them Hall of Famer.
We love him to super Bowl titles, We love Big
Ben Roethlisberger, but we wanted him gone, okay because he
was clearly done. And since that time, what have you
had if you're a Pittsburgh Steeler fan. I mean, they
gave you reasons the question whether a quarterback position ship exists?

Speaker 2 (08:37):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (08:38):
Yeah, goodness exactly. So you know he wasn't as bad
as people think. Last year he was actually a top
ten quarterback passing your eards. He was ranked eighth in
the league. He did throw a lot of interceptions, right,
took like eleven picks. Yeah, so I don't know. But
the only real interesting thing for me about Aaron Rodgers
signing with the Steels. You know where They opened the
season in New York against the Jets. Oh my god,

(09:00):
there you go. Last night was Game one of the
NBA Finals, Pacers Thunder in Oklahoma City. Let's go right
to the end of the game. With fifteen seconds left.

Speaker 11 (09:07):
Here do Sallexanders Sims pulls up jumper of lamar won't
go rebound.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
In the spect a PACER's little chance to win it.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
Final seconds, no fouls to two.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
Haliburton looking, Halliburton.

Speaker 11 (09:19):
Driving, pulls up jump shot up with three tons of
a second, remating Tyrese Halliburton does it again?

Speaker 4 (09:28):
Did his dad run out on the court and started
insulting all the players from uh?

Speaker 2 (09:31):
Was he there?

Speaker 4 (09:32):
I didn't even cey. You know, Tyree's Halliburton. He is
an absolute human dagger. He has been incredible in these playoffs.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Clubs.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
All right, so it's Friday, We're going to the weekend.
Here's your viewing options for the weekend. I got Panthers
Oilers Game two of the Stanley Cup Final eight o'clock
tonight on TNT. Pacers Thunder Game two with the NBA
Finals Sunday night at eight on ABC, and then the
blood bath in the Bronx. We got the Socks Yankees
seven ten tonight, seven fifteen tomorrow, and then a day

(10:00):
on Sunday, one thirty five, first pitch. And finally, if
you're a golf nerd like me and Chuck, you got
the RBC Canadian Open all weekend long.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (10:08):
Excited about that. Scheffler's gonna win again. You don't look
as well. He's winning every tournament these days. I was
still thinking about the Socks and the Yankees.

Speaker 3 (10:14):
It's gonna be tough.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
How it used to mean something. Now it means probably
slipping two or three games further behind them in the
Ale East. That's sports Tyler. And this is the Chuck

Speaker 4 (11:05):
I can't think of anything I would camp out for
like that to buy something or not anymore. No, no,
like I would. I used to camp off for concert
tickets when I was a kid, but you can't even
do that anymore. And everything album releases at midnight. I

I'm not a heat person, so it was a little
I liked it.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
I was sitting outside, Oh my god, it was so nice.

Speaker 5 (11:58):
No, god, no, I say, sitting in the sun. I
could see the sun like through everything around buildings and stuff.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
And now the.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
Older I get, the more I like the heat and
the less I like the cold.

I understand, but you're going to live there.

Speaker 4 (12:24):
I'm probably gonna end up living so yeah. I lived
down in South Florida for two years. I used to
like old people. No Florida. Oh my god. It's that
first encounter in a public's parking lot.

Speaker 3 (12:36):
You know what I can't deal with with Florida is
the use of the hazard lights when it starts to
rain on the highway. That's right.

Speaker 4 (12:44):
Time, granted, when it rains.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
No, I get it. I get it.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
It's like standing in a shower. Yeah, but it does
get a little crazy.

Speaker 5 (12:51):
Yeah, the hazards and they's slowing down to eight miles
per hour. Yeah, it's a little crazy.

Speaker 3 (12:55):
In the left lane.

Speaker 4 (12:56):
I missed out on the whole Nintendo switch to sail
and apparently they're gone right now, do you need me to.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
Like find someone selling one that fell off the back
of a truck for you or somebody like that. I'm
sure I got a guy.

Speaker 5 (13:09):
Went on sale yesterday morning and people camped out overnight
at the best Buy in Dorchester.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
Okay, did we have a police detail there?

Speaker 4 (13:17):
There's a lot of lines there, but going on, Yeah,
there's a lot going on, but we're gonna do we're
a little bit later.

Speaker 5 (13:24):
We're going to talk about men of a certain age.
There's things that you just don't do anymore. Oh, I
can't wait to talk about it, all right. Yeah, and
there's a lot one of them is probably camping out
their best Buy in Dorchester at midnight waiting for a
Nintendo switch to But the first guy in line him
been out there eleven hours and he's like thirty years old.

Speaker 7 (13:41):
That's where Studio comes with lots of new software, especially
Mario Kart, and I think that the new hardware is
going to enable a lot of cool new games.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
So I'm excited for that.

Speaker 4 (13:50):
Mario Kart, what did they come out like thirty years ago?

Speaker 3 (13:52):
It's still going on, it's still popular. But Jeff Blue
does have a Mario Kart Lippard. I'm just saying that
was the first customer.

Speaker 4 (14:02):
Yeah, here's the second customer.

Speaker 12 (14:04):
There's a lot of.

to play it the second everyone else.

Speaker 4 (14:10):
Plays it, be the first.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Yeah, all right, he's going to eat out on this
story for the next twenty days. Do you remember when
Brian was on the news because he was at South
Bay overnight.

Speaker 4 (14:21):
I'm looking at the screenshot like, obviously he's a little kid,
but everybody else in line is a total bro. Yes, yeah,
it's all bros.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yes, you know what you like, what you like. I
respect it.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
I get that. But wait in line for Wednesday night
waiting to buy something Thursday morning, waiting to buy a
gaming system. No, but you can get it online, like
buy it on Amazon.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
Right. But though that's the thing, it's like, it's it's
especially with stuff like this, with these releases, it's the
allure of having.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
It now it's a flex and it comes out.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
It's a flex and especially if you're someone who creates
content around this, that's a big deal because you're gonna
get a lot of views.

Speaker 4 (15:00):
Rush home, You get a plug it in, get it
all set to go. You sit in your gaming chair,
You get the lotion over here, You're ready to go.

Speaker 3 (15:06):
You just combined theirs Tyler's lives. What what you have
Lotionan don't like I have a lot of lotion. Do
you have a red gaming chair or a.

Speaker 4 (15:14):
Blue one zero? I'm not a gaming never a gamer.
Oh you think, never been a gamer? I was for
a while with your kid. No, no, again, this is
what I was in Florida.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
You know, I would just I had a whole different life.

Speaker 5 (15:28):
I had a Nintendo and I really got into it
a lot until that day and I looked out the
window and it looked like this.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Yeah, I had been up all night. Oh oh, that's
the worst, Like coming out of the Strip club at
five am, feeling.

Speaker 4 (15:39):
Exactly what it felt like put in a gaming way
and it was like it was one of those what
am I doing?

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Yeah? I immediately boxed it up. That was it. That
was the end of that. I was never into gaming
systems like that. But when I got my my Oculus headset,
the Via headset. When I bought that, I was like,
that's going to be another three hundred dollars thing that
I buy and use once.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
I use it all the time.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
Do you I love it? I don't like it, mostly
for mini golf. And then there's a sandwich making game
that I use.

Speaker 4 (16:03):
It just feels weird.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
It's too heavy on your head. I have a I
have a there's a different non stock headset that I
got that doesn't have the elastic band, so you don't
get the face pressure. It's like it's got a little
adjustable knob, so it basically just sits on the top
of your head.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
Makes it so much more comfortable you're sitting there doing
mini golf on an oculus many.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
I love it. The minigolf app is so good. And
then there's a sandwich game where you have to make
sandwiches for woodland creatures, but you can't go into the
group gameplay because it's always like twelve year olds from Birmingham, England.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
There's a lot of porn too.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
The porn is a I checked out the pov porn
immediately just to see like what it's like for a guy.
I can see the allure. I get that. For me,
it didn't really do much.

Speaker 5 (16:45):
Would it be the kind of guy that camps out
overnight at the Best Buying Door Chester.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
That guy's not watching porn.

into this. I'm obsessed, all right.

Speaker 5 (18:36):
We were looking at his TikTok and he gets into
maps and cross references. Oh yeah, and the directions and
mileage between each dunks.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
He spent some time on this.

Speaker 2 (18:47):
He did.

Speaker 3 (18:47):
He's running cod He probably set up a couple of

goes to. All right, you're a cyclist, Yeah, can you
cycle that much on munchkins?

good thing. New England's not hilly at all. Yeah, no,

Speaker 6 (21:29):
I never know what you're gonna hear America will hear
my two cents on Boston's Classic Rock one hundred point
seven w ZLX.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
After intense pressure from the community and local politicians, and
eighteen year old Milford student was released on bond after
six days in ice attention following a traffic stop, Marcelo
comes to Silva, described harsh conditions, no showers and sharing
a toilet with forty other individuals.

Speaker 7 (21:56):
Nobody should be in here. Like most people down there
are all work. They're all they all got caught going
to work. And like these people have these people have
have families, man like, they have kids to go home to,
and there's like genuine criminals out there that people aren't
giving attention to. They're getting good people that don't deserve
to be here. I haven't showered in six days. I

(22:18):
haven't done anything. The only thing I could do is
thank God every day, because that's all I would do.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
I would pray.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
There, my God, sharing a toilet with forty other guys
went on a concrete floor, just like the open steel toilets.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
Yeah, tell you never survived that. Oh my god. He
would be in a corner, rocking back.

Speaker 4 (22:35):
And forth, fetal position. I think I just off myself, like,
why bother at that point?

Speaker 3 (22:39):
Oh God, they have you on watch. Can't even use
the bed sheets. That is grim. He's now waiting for
the next steps in his immigration case. He was helping
out other individuals and the detention center. Marcelo is trilingual.
He speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese, so he was helping
translate some of the paperwork that was coming through. Big
breakup happening over on the Twitter machine. Elon Musk claimed
that Donald Trump's names and the Jeffrey Epstein files and

(23:01):
that's why they haven't been released. That sparked a big
social media firestorm. Yesterday, the White House dismissed that claim.
They said Trump had long distanced himself from Epstein because
in February they did release some information adjacent to that.
They said, no new information has been revealed since then.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
That was going back and forth, back and forth. Well
you did this, well, you did that. Well you couldn't
have done that without me. Well I'm taking my rockets
and I'm going home.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
Manchild times too. Dot Elon Musk wrote at real, Donald
Trump is in the Epstein files. That's the real reason
they've not been made public. Have a nice day. DJT.

Speaker 4 (23:34):
That's heavy, that's a that's a shot. The love affair
is over.

Speaker 3 (23:41):
It is Drone footage captured three swimmers getting swept up
by massive waves at a beach in Acapulco after Tropical
Storm Alvin. Despite warnings and you never want to do this,
the group entered the surf anyway and they vanished under
huge swells. Witnesses say they appeared unharmed, so that's good.
Storm's remnants continue to feel some dangerous and rip currents
along Mexico's west coast, and we'll be expected throughout the weekend.

(24:04):
Firefighters in Revere battle the large blaze at a triple
decker on Patient Street. Yet this morning, the flame spread
to the roof of a neighboring home before crews managed
to contain the fire. Teams remained on the scene, dousing
the structure and checking for any lingering hotspots. Health officials
in Massachusetts warning about possible bachelism cases linked to improperly
administered boatox treatments. You can't get your injectables in your

(24:29):
filler at a storage unit in Framingham, Okay? Can you?

Speaker 5 (24:33):
Can you share? Can you share the needle? Just wipe
it off on your pants? No, share it with a friend.

Speaker 7 (24:38):
No.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
We don't want to be injecting tire filler into the
botics to get the BBL. We don't want to if
your person, if your injector is not a licensed provider.
Let's let's not try to go with the five dollar
unit boatox because you might die.

Speaker 4 (24:51):
All right, You've had the procedure.

Speaker 3 (24:53):
I've had many many sessions of the talks, and the
villain very painful. It's nothing slow and painful and is
so fine. They can put numb and cream on you.
The lips are the worst. If if I do only
because I have a dead worm top lip, so it's

(25:14):
very thin when I'm.

Speaker 4 (25:19):
Into your lip.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
Ah, you can't feel it. You can't feel it, that's
what she said. It's so fine and small you didn't
even notice it was there. Two people were hospitalized after
receiving boatox injections from unlicensed providers in non medical settings
on the South Short officials are urging anyone who recently
had boatox outside of a licensed clinic to seek medical

(25:40):
care if they experience any symptoms. You can look up
those symptoms online. But if you start feeling weird, stuff
starts drooping, you're getting numb.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
Does your face like blow up? Stuff like that? Is
there a weeping wound?

Speaker 3 (25:51):
Well, it's it's literally toxin, yes, So you've got to
make sure you're getting, you know, the real stuff that's
been approved. Who've digested and have to look like hand
numbers match numbers.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
Yea glad, I'm a guy.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
Ye'd be very glad. Although men can get treatments to
a thing like sixty nine in Boston right now, high
have seventy seven on tap. A little hazy out there
probably be like that for most of the day. We
get some storms coming later though, So patting down the hatches.
I'm Danielle that Choudella.

Speaker 6 (26:22):
One hundred point seven seconds of sports with Tyler.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
All Right, Big news and sports going into the weekend.
Mister Aaron Rodgers has finally signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
Love it.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
Do you think Steelers fans are gonna buy an Aaron
Rodgers jersey? Yeah, of course they will. You would make
that kind of commitment for a one year contract. They
did it with Russell Wilson. I saw Russell Wilson jerseys.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Yeah, that's a good point.

Speaker 4 (26:45):
God, And Russell Wilson is not quite the quarterback that
Aaron Rodgers has been throughout the career. Yeah, but everybody
hates Aaron Rodgers right now. He's a little polarizing. I'm
not gonna lie such a tool. My favorite thing being
Patriots fans is knowing that the Steelers quarterback room is
as Aaron Rodgers, who's not you know, the man he
used to be, not terrible. He was a top ten
quarterback last year. Mason Rudolph, who's basically just kind of

(27:09):
been a bust. He's back with the Steelers after a
year with the Titans. Will Howard, there's sixth round pick
out of Ohio State, and the legendary Skyler Thompson, seventh
round pick from the Dolphins in twenty twenty two, who
made his.

Speaker 3 (27:19):
Waist to Steelers this year. Where are they gonna finish this.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
There's not gonna be a lot of terrible towels being
waived this season. The funniest thing about all of this
is this is so not like the Steelers to sign
an aging quarterback at the absolute end of his career.
I don't know if they've ever done it before. Sounds desperate,
it's super desperate. Not the way they operate. The really
interesting thing to me, though, is they opened the season
against the Jets in New York. That's gonna be a

(27:45):
huge gay and you know the media's gonna hike Oh god, yes.
But oddly, it's not a primetime game. It's a one
o'clock Sunday game. They're gonna move that.

Speaker 3 (27:52):
They gotta move, they have to move that anyway.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
That's that last night game one of the NBA Finals,
Pacers Thunder in Oklahoma City. Let's go right to the
end to the game. With fifteen seconds left.

Speaker 11 (28:03):
Kildas Alexanders, Sims pulls up jumper all Lamar won't go
rebound knee spectrum, Pacers will a chance to win it,
final seconds, no finals to get it.

Speaker 3 (28:12):

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Driving, pulls up.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
Jump shot, heads up, BET's gone with break.

Speaker 11 (28:19):
Tons of a second, vatic tyres.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
Halliburton does it again. Did he give the choke sign
after that? I don't think he gave the chokes sign,
But man, is he good in the playoffs. He is
an absolute human dagger out there.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
All right.

Speaker 4 (35:21):
Just about this time yesterday, it was mayhem out on
Route one twenty eight in Burlington. We had a truck
involved in an accident with an SUV and fifteen hundred
pounds steel plates.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
We're flying all over the place like a deck of cards,
catapulting through the air, if you.

Speaker 5 (35:35):
Will, spinning, yeah, through the air, like a top. We
have a follow up on that story. Danielle did a
deep dive on this and we're gonna meet the driver
of the truck.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
So good, it's so good, good.

Speaker 4 (35:47):
The way he tells the story is so good in
his own words. Coming up for Boston's Classic Rock one
hundred point seven w c X Boston's Classic Rock one
hundred points have a wz alex.

Speaker 5 (36:00):
It's the Chuck Nolan Morning Show with Daniel Murr and
Tyler And for God's sake, it's Friday. Yes, let's take
it easy out there, people, Okay, slow your roll, chill out.
Yesterday just craziness. On one twenty eight Burlington there was
a truck carrying fifteen hundred pounds steel plates. Those are
the things they put over the road when there's construction,

(36:21):
and it does the road and you drive over it
and you're thinking, oh my god, is that is that
right over the lip?

Speaker 4 (36:26):
Is that okay? Is that going to cave in?

Speaker 3 (36:28):
Like the person in Revere yesterday who slowed down to
three miles an hour to go over them. Coming up sixteen,
I was like, can we can? We just got a
little in the left lane.

Speaker 4 (36:39):
So this guy's got a truckload of these steel plates,
and a guy in an suv crashed into the back
of him.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
Sounds like the suv driver was getting a little impatient
because this happened at six thirty yesterday morning, so we
know what one twenty eight north is like that right
around the root three area in the interchange, and I'm
guessing there was some stop and go traffic. Maybe the
guy in the truck wasn't pulling up fur enough so
the suv was probably trying to like jockey for position,
maybe get around.

Speaker 4 (37:02):
Yeah, we were trying to put the pieces of the
puzzle together because some of the plates went over into
the other lane, into the other like the other other side,
over the Jersey barrier, and way over too, like to
the other lane on the complete other side, like not
just fin all.

Speaker 5 (37:18):
Yes, it was like what the heck is going on here?
But luckily we do have the driver of the truck,
George Goffredo.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
It's cold to tell, it's cold to.

Speaker 4 (37:27):
Tell the tale and what might have actually saved his
life when do you think about it.

Speaker 8 (37:33):
I'm shocked to see the damage and what I witnessed
in the accident and the banging and everything else.

Speaker 2 (37:41):
You know, you just stick for a split second.

Speaker 4 (37:45):
This could be it, This could be it could be it, right,
and in a situation like that, everything's in slow motion. Yes,
it's all around you.

Speaker 5 (37:53):
This could be it your life flashing before your eyes,
the highlights, some of the low lights.

Speaker 4 (37:57):
But it's right there.

Speaker 3 (37:58):
This could be happening, And were just right in the
middle of this.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
All of a sudden, the rosary bled in the speakers,
you know.

Speaker 8 (38:07):
What I mean, like like you'd almost want to lower
the radio and bomb.

Speaker 2 (38:12):
The accident happened, I said, Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
So for context, George was listening to Mark Wahlberg's.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
Hallow app Of course, he was. Why wouldn't you when
you're driving on one twenty eight, six thirty in the morning.
You need a little help, don't We could be listening
to Chuck Show.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
But there was a stretch when I listened to a
little Joel Hoasting on the way into work many years ago.

Speaker 4 (38:33):
Yeah, but Mark Wahlberg for inspiration.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Hey, George, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (38:39):
George? George?

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Lookout there's a cow behind you.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
George. What are you gonna do with those steel plates? George?

Speaker 4 (38:43):
All right, George, I.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
Felt the truck go up in the air.

Speaker 8 (38:48):
Next thing you know, he went at a slight angle,
went underneath the rear of my truck almost picking up
my rire axles, and he slammed me into the God real.

Speaker 4 (39:01):
George, I got you, I got you, Joge, the Holy Spirit.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
George is gonna eat out in this story for the
next ten years.

Speaker 5 (39:08):
Made how many times has he told the story in
twenty four hours?

Speaker 3 (39:12):
Has been going nuts?

Speaker 2 (39:13):
Yes, I'll tell you one thing. When uh, I could
see the street, the floor came up, I'm gonna have
to reaup on the app.

Speaker 8 (39:21):
You know, they gave me a I got a billain
I got a bill in February, and I kind of
like blew it off, you know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (39:27):
He kind of reminds me of Teddy from Bob's Burgers.
You know, Bob I got a bill.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
You He's gonna on that app a little bit. Did
you hear that story? Did you hear that story?

Speaker 3 (39:40):
Amazing?

Speaker 4 (39:42):
Mark Wahlberg saved his life there but for the grace
of God. Go I wow, is it Mark Wahlberger dater
both well?

Speaker 3 (39:51):
I mean that's redundant.

Speaker 5 (39:52):
Mark Wahlberg was working out at the time and saving
George's life.

Speaker 4 (39:56):
Is there nothing this man can't do? Act freeze instruction

Speaker 2 (40:03):

Speaker 4 (40:04):
We got the check in coming up next six one seven,

Kill about next ZLX.

Speaker 2 (40:12):
All of a sudden, the rosary bled in the speaker.

Speaker 4 (40:18):
Seven w ZLX.

Speaker 1 (40:20):
Right here on the Chuck Nolan Morning Show, we answer
the age old question, am I the A hole?

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Help us out?

Speaker 5 (40:33):
Six one seven one hundred point seven. You can text
w ZX and your message to seven oh four to
seven oh.

Speaker 4 (40:39):
Download the free iHeartRadio app. Hit that little red microphone
the talkback button. Leave us a talk bag, Danielle. We're
going off to the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
We are going off to the restaurant. I got a
very lengthy DM from Christina in Metro West. She said,
I need to know if I'm the a hole. Here.
This is a DM and Instagram. I'm a waitress at
a busy restaurant. I had a nightmare table the other night,
a group of six who were very difficult from the start.
They sent food back multiple times, they asked for a
million substitutions, extra sauce, They split the checks three different

(41:09):
ways and basically ran me ragged. I kept it professional.
I loved my job. I smiled all the way through it.
I made sure I handled every single one of their requests.
When they finally left, I picked up the checkholder and
I saw they left no tip and they wrote bad
service on the tip line.

Speaker 4 (41:25):
Oh nasty, right to jail.

Speaker 3 (41:29):
I was stunned, and I was able to catch them
as they were walking out. In a very calm voice,
I asked them if something was wrong with the service
or the food, because I noticed they didn't lave a tip.
While my manager overheard this exchange, pulled me aside, wrote
me up, and took away one of my weekend shifts. Aggressive.
We don't have a policy about asking a guest about
tipping or anything like that, And honestly, I wasn't rude.

(41:50):
I just wanted to know what I did wrong After
literally bending over backwards for them. Now I'm wondering if
I crossed a line. So am I the a hole
for asking a table? Why they stiffed me? I worked
my ass off table of six. It's hard work, so
three couples, it sounds like, right, Probably that's a lot.

Speaker 4 (42:09):
That's a ton she worked, she bent over backwards.

Speaker 3 (42:12):
I mean, if you're going to be like if you're
going to make a million requests and just be difficult,
you know.

Speaker 4 (42:18):
And you see that on social media all the time.
People take the photos of the check that they write
something nasty on to the person instead of leaving, leaving
and then sharing a public look what I did.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
Look, I'm such a hard o that I did this right.

Speaker 5 (42:30):
Yeah, somebody's been working hard to serve you and you
do something like that.

Speaker 3 (42:35):
Yeah, that's awful.

Speaker 4 (42:36):
The only thing I can say is like, you got
to play a little devil's advocate. Is there something she's
leaving out? Is there something that tweaked them absolutely to
make them.

Speaker 3 (42:43):
Do this possible? Possible?

Speaker 4 (42:45):
But if that's the facts, I mean, she said.

Speaker 3 (42:49):
She loves her job, like you know, I mean, there
are people that truly adhere to steps of service and
they want to make sure parties, and there are like
I've gone out to dinner with people who are just
bad tippers. They don't believe in tipping, they don't tip
on you know, they won't tip on a bottle of wine,
and they're just like well, and they're a pain in
the ass all around. And I try not to go

(43:10):
out with those people. But if I have to, I
have gone. I will check the billfold or the check
hold whatever the hell the things called at the end
before we leave, and I'm like, they leave in appropriate tip.
I've gone back to hand a server cash to make
up for the bad tip that my friends left.

Speaker 9 (43:24):
I done that.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
I've done that.

Speaker 4 (43:26):
Yeah, it's a tough thing to do, though. You got
to sneak it. You don't want to, you don't want
your friends.

Speaker 3 (43:30):
Seeing any Oh, hang on, I've got to run back
because I forgot something. Yeah, I have my phone.

Speaker 4 (43:34):
With my phone, then you run back and drop a
twenty downs.

Speaker 3 (43:37):
Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (43:37):
I was in a situation where we're out to dinner
with relatives and one of the relatives just went nuts
on the waiter, like really bad and for no reason.
And the guy handed handled it very professionally. But I
made sure when we left we're all heading out of
the parking lines. I'll be I'll be right back and winning.
I apologize up and down. I think it gave the
guy like a CEE notes, I'm so sorry.

Speaker 3 (43:59):
Which talk about dating turn offs, if I were ever
on a date with the guy who abused a server,
done one and done massive, red flag massive, especially, I
was on a date once with a guy years ago
and he wore it like as a badge of honor.
Like he was like, watch this, I'm so powerful that
I can abuse the waitress. And I'm like, yeah, I'm
about three seconds from walking out the door, but have

(44:21):
a have a great rest of the meal? Guy, so great?

Speaker 4 (44:23):
Did you stay for the whole dinner?

Speaker 3 (44:25):
It was toward like it was a very quick day.
It wasn't like a lengthy dinner situation, like we weren't
like doing fine dining. It was in a chain place.
So I was like, you know what, let me just
sit through the rest of it. And I think I
may have even dropped her a little extra money too,
because I thought I was so embarrassed by him, like
I'm not I'm not actually with this guy. I just

(44:46):
I'm not with him. Don't please don't look. I don't
know him, I don't.

Speaker 2 (44:49):
Know the girl.

Speaker 4 (44:50):
Did that be out the door? And I wouldn't make
it to the apps to walk out six seven nine
three one point seven, text double zlex and your messages
seven oh four to seven oh or leave it to
talk back on the free iHeartRadio apps. So the question
is who is the a hole, the server or the boss.
We already know the people at the table were you
take a.

Speaker 3 (45:10):
Shift away for that? Right?

Speaker 4 (45:11):
In this economy, we're also taking her word that she
handled a very professionally.

Speaker 5 (45:16):
Just wanted to know is there something I could have
done better? Or did you just come flying.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
At him like, hey, what the I used a part
time with the girl at mcgreevy's who went on to
do national sports television, And she would have no qualms
about sliding the check back over to the people and
being like you didn't tip enough?

Speaker 2 (45:34):
Fix this?

Speaker 3 (45:35):
And I was like, the.

Speaker 4 (45:38):
Con get away with it.

Speaker 3 (45:39):
That is strong that she made that move a lot
of times. So it was it's good to work with
her because take it back, Yeah, I think you made
a mistake.

Speaker 4 (45:49):
Rito, What do you think?

Speaker 14 (45:51):
I don't think she's the A hole. I think that
I think that she if she if she's telling the
story the way it actually happened. And she was asking
because I'm an I'm a person who always wants to
try to do something better. If I'm like, tell me
what I did wrong? And the other thing that's weird
is I'm surprised the restaurant doesn't charge. Usually with a
party of six, they automatically add twenty percent to the tip,

(46:13):
which might not be the case, because they split this
thing three ways. But the other thing is, you know
from I've worked, you know, not in a like as
a waitress per se, but you know at a counter
and whatever. And the more demanding the customer, the less
likely they are to leave the tip.

Speaker 13 (46:32):
I have found.

Speaker 3 (46:33):
Yeah, it's just almost like.

Speaker 14 (46:35):
They're entitled, like you're you should be grateful to serve me, Like.

Speaker 16 (46:39):
You know someone that comes in. But the guy that's like, hey,
can you get me a beer or the person that's like,
hey can get me a black coffee, they're leaving you
two bucks five bucks, and the person is like, I'll
have this, I want it this way, add this, this
much or not a splash of the add this and
then they're like nothing and they they have you jumping.

Speaker 14 (46:56):
Through several hoops. So I think it's more of a
the party of six their person enough. I don't think
they're tim versuariod.

Speaker 4 (47:04):
Not only do you have to be a server, you
have to be a psychologist as well, tough gig man,
keep a smile.

Speaker 3 (47:11):
On your face the whole time.

Speaker 14 (47:12):
You're like yeah, all the time, all the time. And
I love customer service.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
I love it.

Speaker 14 (47:17):
I think it's great. But you know, when you have
people that are like that, it it does make you
wonder like, well, what did what did I do wrong?
But my years of experience have told me that it's
usually not you, it's usually them.

Speaker 4 (47:29):
All right, thank you, Rita and people pushing back on
tipping right now, you gotta tip, especially in a situation
like that. I know there's other ones that are ridiculous
when it spins around and it's like you're gonna leave
twenty percent just for somebody handing you something.

Speaker 3 (47:43):
I tip for time too, so if I don't if
I'm at a place for an extended like if I'm
having dinner at the bar and I'm sitting there for
a long time and like a long time has gone
by since, Like if I'm not drinking a ton, but
like I'm having dinner with a friend and we're there
for like two hours, I'm gonna tip additional on that,
even more so than what's on the bill, because like,
I've sat here and you haven't been able to turn

(48:04):
these two seats.

Speaker 4 (48:05):
It's true, but you just made a good point.

Speaker 3 (48:07):
Though.

Speaker 4 (48:07):
When you're going just to get something quick, yeah, pick
it up and leave. You don't leave a tip. Yep,
there's a there's a cafe in my neighborhood that I
go to sometimes when I go home from the show,
grab a little breakfast food or whatever.

Speaker 3 (48:17):
We cafe.

Speaker 4 (48:18):
Yeah, and the girl that's always at the Connor is
the sweetest girl in the world. She remembers my name.
She's so nice. I've been going. We've been doing the
show for a couple of months, and I've probably gone
I don't know, ten times, and I always order on
the app, on the toast app, and I never really
leave it. I never leave a tip. I don't think
of it because I'm just walking in and picking up
up and leaving. Yeah, yesterday I left her a five
dollar tip on the app. I was like, I felt
like nice, After all this time, I probably should do

(48:39):
something well, And as of yesterday stopped spinning in the
food so exactly.

Speaker 3 (48:45):
Croissant is not moist.

Speaker 4 (48:48):

Speaker 2 (48:49):

Speaker 5 (49:03):
Am I the a whole situation restaurants, server working hard,
party of six does everything she's supposed to do, stiffed.

Speaker 3 (49:13):
On the tip and an additional note saying bad service.
Come on.

Speaker 5 (49:18):
She says she went after them to ask what went wrong? Nicely, nicely,
boss sees this docs.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
Or you're out, You're weekend shift gone gone, putting Susan
on two is.

Speaker 4 (49:31):
The a hole? We have a couple of dog.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
Bags here, guys.

Speaker 2 (49:35):
I think I would have played that a different way.

Speaker 13 (49:36):
If I was her, I would have said, hey, well
wait a minute.

Speaker 3 (49:39):
You overpaid.

Speaker 13 (49:40):
Do you want me to take that as a tip?

Speaker 2 (49:43):
That's what I would have said. Okay, always tip.

Speaker 3 (49:47):
If it's bad service, tip five to ten percent. If
it's good service, twenty twenty five percent, maybe more. Do
you agree with that? Twenty's my standard. I'm not doing
a lot of it. Even if I get bad service,
I'm just gonna chalk it up to you know what,
maybe it's a Maybe it's a bad day. Maybe the
person just sucks like I don't want to be that
person that leaves less.

Speaker 4 (50:07):
True, but there's levels of bad.

Speaker 3 (50:09):
That's true. That's true, almost just a complete ale.

Speaker 4 (50:13):
Yeah, you have to make a message.

Speaker 3 (50:15):
But you also you also need to give the restaurant
the opportunity to make it right. That's one of my
biggest frustrations with things like YELP, because people like this
happened and blah blah blah, we still ate all the food,
we still paid and left. Did you ever speak to
a manager? Now, we did that, Okay, Well you didn't
give a chance to fix it, rich out.

Speaker 9 (50:32):
And what do you think, rich Hey, I think it's
not her service. I think that it has a lot
to do with the food, you know what I mean.
They don't want to admit that they ate that bad meal,
so they're gonna stiff her on the tip without being
honest and say it's not the service because you did well.
The situation is horrible, all right, Well.

Speaker 4 (50:57):
Right, but that's like displaced to anger. You're pissed at
the restaurant, but you take it out on the server, right.

Speaker 3 (51:02):
Yeah, she doesn't have any control over what the line
cooks are doing exactly.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
We have an ex waiter here who can give us
his outlook. Ian, what do you think?

Speaker 13 (51:12):
Hey, guys, how's it going? Okay?

Speaker 14 (51:15):
Hi? Can you hear me?

Speaker 4 (51:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (51:18):
All right? Uh wow, this one hits a little close
to the chest. I'll tell you that one two major
a holes were dealing with here the clients, customers flat
out don't even get me started on these Emmy Award winners.
But the manager, there's a there's a certain way they

(51:40):
should that the manager should have dealt with this, and
they could have pulled the the waitress a sign had
a conversation with her about constructive criticism way they did this.
Had I been in that position, I would have said
a lot of choice words I can't say on the
radio to that manager, and I would have quit on
the spot. Oh hell yeah, I would a walk. But

(52:04):
even if the service was horrible, and I'm saying this
from my perspective, even if the food was absolute garbage,
I would have still left you twenty percent because you
know what waiters are paid. They're paid for like fifty
three an hour.

Speaker 3 (52:19):
Yep.

Speaker 13 (52:20):
They are dependent upon tips. Now, tipping culture has gotten
way at hand in this country, yes, but for restaurants
that is a staple. If you cannot tip, don't eat out,
don't go out. That's that simple. So these these customers
the six top, go home, make your own stupid.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
Meal, especially a table of six that's hustling.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
Yeah, I also hate when because Ian brings up an
interesting point about the whole tipping culture thing and how
you know your base rate is like two sixty three
an hour. I can't stand when people's people revolt against
the concept of tipping and they're like, well, they should
just pay them a living wage. So I'm not gonna tip,
but that's not what the model we use. If they
had changed to that, that's one thing, but that's not

(53:04):
They don't get paid an hourly wage. And I'm gonna
tell you right now, if you start paying servers an
hourly quote unquote livable wage and you take away the
tipping model, you're gonna lose a lot of life.

Speaker 5 (53:13):
First, wasn't that just a ballid question at tipping? Yeah,
we have Kelly with bartending experience here, Kelly, what do
you think?

Speaker 12 (53:22):
So I've been in service, breakfast service, lunch service, bar service,
I've done it for thirty years. I've been in managing
and hosting. The kitchen's a brutal ninety percent of the time.
You have no idea what happened last to that person.
If they're out and out rude to you, then you

(53:45):
know you could throw a little sarcasm at them and
be like, so you're not having a good day, Okay,
do you write your job?

Speaker 9 (53:51):
Sure?

Speaker 12 (53:52):
I throw a little sarcasm at them, And if you're
a regular customer, maybe talk to the manager and say,
you know, I'm not show what's going on here. But
as far as not tipping at all, I have. Me
and my husband were at a bar, a very high
end bar on the South Shore. We were completely ignored

(54:13):
because we weren't regulars, completely ignor interesting and a place
where we are we do frequent, We actually know the owner,
and so regardless, I tipped her of the twenty percent
when our food got there. Finally, I said, please wrap

(54:33):
this up. I was next to me to regulars on
either side of us, and I said, I understand I'm
not a regular of yours, so I'm not your bed
and bread and butter, but you're still going to get
a twenty percent tip for being lousy and being rude.
And you know, no, I'm never coming back here if

(54:53):
I see you at the bar.

Speaker 13 (54:55):
Yep walked away.

Speaker 4 (54:59):
Kelly taking us then making a message kicking it out there.
I get the impression that Kelly doesn't take any cuff.

Speaker 3 (55:05):
I'm gonna take this to go right.
