It's just a great start to my day on Kids one. Wait, yeah,
that's what it is. It's a great start to your day.
And all I gotta say, Lisa Dunovan is cold. Huh,
old boy. It is chilly out there this morning, in
the twenties. If you're waking up and getting set to
head out this morning.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
And we're gonna see snow on Thursday out in like
the Worcester Hills a few inches.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Yeah, north and west now, justin when they say north
and west of the city, does that include you? Are
you north enough to be considered north?
Speaker 4 (00:34):
And I am north?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Yeah, I mean usually it could be slick for you
coming in on Thursday.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Always colder, always more snow. It was in the teens
this morning. You had twenties. I had teens, so so
we go.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, it's cold out there this morning. And by the way,
we want to point out very clearly that today is
Giving Tuesday. Today is the National Day of Giving. This
is Giving Tuesday. Every year on the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving.
Giving need exists in every community. It's National Day of
Giving Today.

help other people.

Speaker 6 (01:16):
You guys are so sweet because I in my head
it's travel Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
It certainly a good deal today. Give the gifts to
yourself to travel. Yeah, so you can give to others
in need, but you could also give to yourself today
because it's travel Tuesday, and that means airlines, airlines, hotels, yeah, cruises,
and they're already a good deal. Imagine what the deals
(01:43):
are there. You can almost go for free.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
Yeah, Giving Tuesday, Give it to me, give it to us,
give it to.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
And what are the odds on Giving Tuesday that we
would book Lauren Baker, the former First Lady of Massachusetts,
who's coming in the studio shark about her Wonderfunk.

top ten songs on the Billboard Hot one hundred and
he's obsessed with the song squabble Obsessed, which is the
lead single.
Speaker 1 (04:47):

Oh yeah, this is big news. Keith's good morning, good
to see you.
Speaker 7 (19:21):
Good morning, Hello, Billy, Hello, Lies, how are you guys?
Speaker 1 (19:26):
So that music is from the movie Home Alone and
just announced you will be featuring Home Alone as part
of the Holiday Pops.
Speaker 7 (19:33):
Well, yes, actually we're continuing past Christmas this year due
to the incredible demand for Holiday pops and what we'll
be doing after Christmas, because we'll be done with Christmas
by that point. Is airing Home Alone shown on our
high deaf screen with the wonderful Boston Bobs playing all
of John Williams's magical score with it. That'll be on
(19:54):
the twenty seventh, twenty eighth, and twenty ninth, So you know,
once the rapping is cleaned up and you're really wondering
what you're going to do with those kids who still
have the rest of the week off. So true, and
you know it used to be throw them out in
the snow drift, but that doesn't seem likely.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
So yeah, and Home Alone is one of those movies
you know that people debate is it really a Christmas movie?
And I think it is definitely a Christmas movie.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
Well, it certainly takes place, yeah, and the music is
very seasonal. There's a couple of wonderful carols actually that
John wrote with Leslie Brickers in that movie that we
feature out on their own during holiday pops.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
And it's funny Keith, because I was going to ask you,
how is it going to work when you do the
Home Alone? So will you show the movie in its
entirety with that beautiful sound system?
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Yes? We show the movie in its entirety, and the
Boston Pops plays all of the hour and twenty minutes
of music in the movie live, so you'll still hear
the dialogue, the sound effects, all those things will be
with the movie, and we will play all of the music.
You mean, you've never seen movie movie is live with orchestra.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Before all the time.
Speaker 7 (20:59):
This is wow, it's discovery time. It's it's an amazing thing.
It's an amazing way to here really hear the music
in a much deeper way than you do when when
you listen to it in the theater, because in the
theater the director will will drop it down under dialogue.
You'll hear a little bit of what's going on. And
for John scores, which are so musically rich, it's it's
(21:19):
really incredible.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Justin can you give us a clip from the movie.
Let's take them there.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Well, it's airing after Christmas, right, Keith, Yes, nine. I
mean they're gonna want more Christmas.
Speaker 13 (21:29):
You guys give up for more.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
So okay, so you have to stand there with the baton.
Do you call it a baton?
Speaker 7 (21:39):
I just stand there with the baton.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Yeah, no, But you're conductors for the entire movie. Like
typically you'll stop down and tell stories.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
Well, no, it is. It is basically I acknowledge the orchestra,
acknowledge the crowds, sit down and conduct and it's really
amazing the way people responded. We've done so many of
the next spring, for instance, not to give too much stuff,
but we're going to do Jaws.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Oh wow, I when is Jaws? Do you have the
dates at the top of your head?
Speaker 7 (22:05):
Next spring? We haven't announced the season yet, but that
will be our special John Williams movie during that time.
That's wow, it's the fiftieth anniversary of that movie.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Now, as a my strug, is that extra exciting for
you doing John Williams or well.
Speaker 7 (22:23):
I mean conducting film score in general. Is it's a
whole different challenge because the kind of focus you have
to have to go through some of these cues, which
we're all put together, you know, one little bit at
a time in a studio originally, but to conduct them
live and to stay exactly tracked so that you know,
when Indiana Jones throws a punch, the orchestra's punch is
(22:44):
right with you.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Know.
Speaker 7 (22:45):
That sort of stuff is it's a big mental challenge.
They're exhausting and take us behind the scenes.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Are there certain shows that you do that don't require
certain instruments and you have to tell people to take
a break? You're not including this one, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 7 (22:59):
I'm just curious you have to tell. They're usually pretty
grateful to get that. There are instruments that are used
in pretty much everything we do on stage. Obviously, the strings,
for instance, are examples of those. And then with the
full Boston Symphony, of which the Boston Pops is a part,
you know, for instance, we'll carry we have four flute
players and four obo players, and et cetera, et cetera,
(23:21):
but they're not all used in every piece.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
I would think the obos are always necessary. Well, you
would very mysterious. I think of the oboe as the
bass guitarist. It's like the odd duck in the orchestra,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
It's funny they think the exact same thing.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
You know what I mean? Right, bass players, it's kind
of the silent guy. He's never the front man, or
rarely the front man.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
You know.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
I always pay close attention to the oboeists. Do you
call them oboists?
Speaker 7 (23:51):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Okay, not not.
Speaker 7 (23:53):
Quite in the same way you do, but you call them.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
And we're talking to Keith Lockhart, who is the conductor
of the Boston Pops. Now, are you a right hander?
I am, you're right handed.
Speaker 7 (24:06):
So we tell other conducting students if you're left handed,
too bad. It's actually it's it's it's actually a very
ambidextrous sort of profession. You use both hands and says,
I don't use a baton my hands are using.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Oh, you don't really, because I was going to ask if.
Speaker 7 (24:23):
Bigger well, long story, physical physical damage over enough, so
wear and tears. It's so yeah, it's a it's a
you know, kind of a Tommy John sort.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Of so are you in pain as you're conducting for
the last twenty years because I've got a bad shoulder,
so I can exactly.
Speaker 7 (24:43):
Well, you know, it's just I mean, it's it's I
tell people and they never believe it. I mean all
everything everybody does on stage is really an athletic thing.
It's a small motor athletic skill. But with conducting, what
happens is you're basically throwing pitches same you. Conductors get
the same yeah damages that pictures do. And they say, well,
you're not throwing ninety eight miles an hour. I said, yes,
(25:05):
but I'm throwing at sixty five and I've been throwing
at the age of the Vibe and the picture has
been retired for thirty years. So it's just it's it's
chronic wearing terr as opposed to a cute wear.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
And so are there certain workouts you do as a maestro?
Speaker 7 (25:18):
You just try to stay limberry, I mean good you
want to be. If I were really attentive.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
I'd be doing yoga and plates.
Speaker 7 (25:24):
I'm starting plots in the new year.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Oh good for you, Oh good for you.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
Keith.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
My wife has has imposed that as a as a
good idea because I need to fix the core.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
You know, now I heard a rumor, Keith.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
This is more information.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
We go behind the scene with Keith Lockhart. I heard
a rumor than in twenty twenty five mid year, I
think possibly next summer the Pops will be doing an
entire night of Kendrick Lamar. Was that just a rumor?
Speaker 8 (25:53):
Or?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
You have squabble up in there. Let's give Keith a
squabble out. Squabble out star. I would think the obo
is big enough, is huge. You know that little a
low end. Yeah right, I don't know what I'm talking.
Do you listen to when you're driving around?
Speaker 7 (26:10):
Nothing? I can't say this in front of your audience,
n PR.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
That's okay.
Speaker 7 (26:17):
I listened to Jim and Marjorie a lot.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
You know I was on their show.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
I know you were a show. That's when I reached
out and then to a text because you were on
discussing your cookbook.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yes, it's Mark Wahlberg intro.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
Yeah, I said, Billy Costa knows Mark. I should be
nicer to speaking of that. What I was asking Billy
for actually was a contact to Mark to come join
us at holiday pops and possibly read. And Mark, if
you're listening, I know you're in Europe doing.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
He usually does in the gym.
Speaker 7 (26:53):
Oh, that's cool. You know the door is open, and
both Affleck brothers have done it, but we know you'd
be better.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Well both impressive, O Casey. He's an intense guy.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Is it an intense guy?
Speaker 10 (27:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (27:07):
So anyway, I told you there was a surprise.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Yes, what's the surprise?
Speaker 7 (27:11):
The surprise is that, you know, kiss you guys have
been so great to us and and Billy, you know
we if we go back a long, long way. How
would you two like to come and read?
Speaker 9 (27:24):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (27:25):
Twas the night before Christmas?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
It'll be fun on the Holiday Pops. What would I wear?
Speaker 13 (27:30):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Get a new dress? Well, you know, we'll check our
schedule and it's so nice that you would ask us.
Speaker 7 (27:40):
Yeah, wow, guy, you guys would be wonderful. We have
a wonderful two person version that we have lots of
pature sets to do together.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
And he couldn't get Mark Wahlberg, so.
Speaker 14 (27:49):
He's like.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
He's run on absolutely right the next on the list. Listen.
There's nothing like the Holiday Pops. You've got to check
it out. It is one of the most magnificent nights
you will spend with your family. And if you want
to get tickets for any of the shows, which include
the home alone specials, just go to Boston Pops dot org.
That's Boston Pops dot Org. Keith, it's always a pleasure
(28:14):
to see you.
Speaker 7 (28:15):
Thanks really good to see both of you. Happy holidays
and to all of good night, Bi and Lisa.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Hey, guys, welcome back. Nice to see Keith Lockhart as
he is the best the maestro of the Boston Pops
Holiday Pops that we've been and there's just nothing like it.
It is the holiday season. It's a magic other than
our jingle Ball Holiday pops. It's a great combo, very combo.
Do you both? We have the ticket tag. A couple
of minutes ago. I want to congratulate Heather green Field
(28:44):
who did get back to us within the fifteen minute deadline,
so she gets a pair of tickets for the completely
sold out jingle Ball which happens December fifteenth. So a
lot of cities in towns have these weird Facebook sites
right justin and just people chime in and give their
thoughts and everything in.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
Yeah, it's the Facebook town groups. Yeah, this has to
be revisited. We did this a couple of years ago.
We actually had one of the top tech talkers, local
guy Nobody Cares Anthony if you don't follow him hit Yeah.
He literally made a career on making fun of these
Facebook groups because every town has one, and some of
them are just outright insane right now, the purpose of
(29:24):
them is to provide information right like about the town,
about where to go for certain things, you know, that
kind of stuff. But they get really nasty and crazy.
Situation happened over the weekend in Salem New Hampshire where
I live.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Ooh okay.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
So Sunday morning, woke up and my wife's jen said,
I'm bringing the kids to the Santa Parade. They have
it every year in Salem. So my daughter so excited
to see Santa. The whole morning, got dressed up in
the Christmas outfit. My son was excited. He doesn't get
excited about anything, right, So all morning long, they're getting ready.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
They leave, right.
Speaker 5 (29:57):
I had to stay and do some other things, and
so she said, pictures of the kids at the parade happy.
And I open my Facebook page. In the Salem, New
Hampshire local Facebook group, a guy writes, please stop with
the stupid parades in twenty twenty five, like who hurt
this guy? So then of course the comments go crazy
like you're a grange, you know, how dare you? Et cetera,
(30:20):
et cetera, And you know it got me thinking these
groups are crazy.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
I'm crazy.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Well, when I have a story, a recent story at
the during the election, I saved my I voted sticker
from the last time I voted, and I used it
and I posted a picture of me saying I voted.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well. I guess my friend told me that in Milton.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
It was like an uproar because people were upset that
I got a sticker at my polling set and they
didn't get a sticker.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
But I didn't get a sticker last year. It was
from the last time I voted. I just saved it
and I used it because it was a nice picture.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
So it caused a whole like uproar in the town.
How did Lisa get a sticker?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
I would have felt the same way because the place
we have to vote never had stickers, right, We've never
had stickers, And I'm like, we used to have stickers
and now there are no stickers.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
That's a good example right there. So someone probably posted
your picture, yes, And people just they just write whatever
they want.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
They feel crazy over the stupidest things.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
How did she get a vote? Sticks? From Bill Lisa
Morning Show. That's how she got hurt. Now, let me
ask about these Facebook sites for the cities and towns.
Did they start as like official sites for city leaders.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
And somebody them and they start out good? And the
whole thing is moderation. Okay, they have moderators like admins
that run the group and they're supposed to check and
approve posts and not approve like not appropriate ones. So
the town group, the town Facebook pages that don't have
admins are just the wild wild West.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
But the issue is whatever you want.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
Sometimes the admins are evil and they're like they're corrupt,
like they're inside the government, liked the inside the mayor's office,
and they're like they're like doing all these weird things
and like the only approved certain things. If it does
if it goes against what they it's weird against politically,
it's very political.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
It's very political. It's weird.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
I bring it up is because I posted that on
my Instagram story, that yeah parade thing, and I got
so many dms from our listeners talking about their town
Facebook page.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
And all the drama in this town and that town,
and it's just insane.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Can I go back to sixty seconds ago? Okay, there
are people whose job it is to administer the town Facebook.
Well it's like a volunteer thing. They're not getting paid.
It's like they created the group. They add and they say,
oh you can get you know, it can go crazy.
People can really abuse the town Facebook.
Speaker 8 (32:45):
It's interesting during.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
Election years in these towns, they go so political crazy.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
It's always like this helicopter what's that sound? Anybody here
the chopper? Why is there a helicopter? Well, did you
get to the parade?
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Did you see there was a fender bender in the
corner of It's like, yeah, my.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Kids went to the parade.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
They loved it.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
It was great.
Speaker 5 (33:06):
I understand this guy probably doesn't have kids, doesn't care,
probably disrupts.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
Yeah, his Sunday.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
I get it.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
It's not for you, it's for kids.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
All I know is I've never heard of this, But
I can't wait to go home and get into the
Medford page for Medford. I want to start arguments and everything.
Speaker 5 (33:25):
If there's a listener out there in Medford that belongs
to the Medford Yeah, a town group, make sure you
hit us up.
Speaker 13 (33:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Topic time is up next this one seven nine? Wait,
how do they get to the tarkback? Mike Justine?
Speaker 5 (33:36):
You can just record your message right into your phone
on the iHeart app. It's that red microphone that you
tap it and boom, you're in top of the next.
Speaker 7 (33:44):
What is the topic today?
Speaker 15 (33:45):
We're going to be talking.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Billy and Lisa present to talk amongst your topic times.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
Yeah, we do this every day at this time, precisely,
at this time, you know, we just come up with
the topic and we just start debating and talking about
it and today's topic city and town facebook pages. I
got to tell you, when I first heard it, I
thought it was lame. I can't wait to go home
now and start posting messages. Now, the Medford one is
supposed to be super lit. There's people on the phone
that belong to the Medford one. Oh really, let's go right,
(34:15):
let's go to Melissa first. Good morning, and let's are
you calling for Medford?
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Yes, good morning guys.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
How are you good? So what do you participate? Are
you an administrator? What's the deal?
Speaker 13 (34:26):
No?
Speaker 2 (34:27):
No, no, no, So I'm I don't know how I
became a member of a bunch. But there's a bunch.
You know, there's a politics one, there's a mom Metford
Mom's one, and we I have a group chat with
a bunch of moms that I'm friends with. So often
when something is really wacky that's posted, we'll like screenshot
it and then have our own little like comit thing
about it.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Oh, so what's the hot topic now in Medford? I
need to know so when I go home, I can
join your group.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Well, honestly, you know, Thanksgiving was this last week and
it was a great holiday. Come home. You get into
bed cast groll on the phone, and I couldn't believe
I was seeing people post all of their leftover food.
Oh oh like dare like and to pick up and
it sounds like a really nice notion for those who
are less fortunate, but like, oh, as a nurse, I'm like,
(35:15):
that's gross. I don't want someone left over turkey.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
Yeah. Well, I mean it's the thought that counts. I mean,
some people maybe needed food, and so this is God,
this is even worse than I thought. Boy, the screams Facebook,
doesn't it.
Speaker 5 (35:29):
Yeah, they post the craziest stuff. Eileen is also on
the Medford one.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Okay, thank you, Well, let's let's go to Eileen. Eileen,
which Medford group are you in on Facebook?
Speaker 13 (35:41):
Good morning guys. I'm on the regular medfood page and
it's pretty tame. Most times it's just met for them A.
It's a lot of coyote sidings. You're right, a lot
of leftover food last week, which sort of grossed me
out too.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Some of it didn't look greatly Wow, so.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
That's the big story thanks to being leftovers on the
Medford Facebook page. Well to go, where to get leftovers?
Speaker 3 (36:07):
Anywhere?
Speaker 8 (36:08):
Right?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
This is really funny. I think that's I can't wait
to play. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (36:13):
We're got to figure out which which Medford group is
the one to join. Yeah, I'm hearing different things.
Speaker 15 (36:18):
Oh my god, you guys, the Medford one is insane.
I get a glass of wine, hangout, start reading, I
get updates on of course the typical so helicopter is
every coyote on the planet, we have their located.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
But the pot stirring and drama O the best?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Oh where do I go for the pot stirring drama?
That's the one I want to join a one.
Speaker 5 (36:45):
But the the the helicopter thing, that's a real thing
in every group meaning what meaning Like they hear a sound,
they think it's a helicopter, and they need to know.
They run to Facebook and they post on the group
was that a helicopter?
Speaker 15 (36:59):
Justin You are so spot on with the helicopter thing,
Like people are like, why is there a helicopter flying?
Speaker 8 (37:06):
Who cares?
Speaker 1 (37:07):
You've never seen a helicopter before? Is that your first
thought to.
Speaker 15 (37:10):
Be, like, oh my god, I gotta go post on
the Facebook page and ask why they're the helicopter.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I don't get it either. Helicopters fly around all this time.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
I know, but can you just look up and see
if it's a helicopter sometimes or if they see it,
but they want to know why?
Speaker 1 (37:23):
Oh is there like an emergency?
Speaker 4 (37:24):
Yeah, they want to know what happened?
Speaker 1 (37:26):
Would be a traffic helicopter.
Speaker 4 (37:27):
Busy bodies.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
That's how it is so much more trivial. I thought,
I love its going.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
Down the street to Maldon's.
Speaker 13 (37:33):
We're God justin. There's a chick on the Mauldin community page.
Every time there's a siren or a helicopter, she's on
there like a frigging Gratis crabbit.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Like, oh my god, they get a life.
Speaker 13 (37:48):
Yes, exactly what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Oh yeah, sirens that's another thing. Anybody hear those sirens?
What's going on in an ambulance or a fire truck?
Is it a police Really? Did they sit at home
and do this?
Speaker 8 (38:00):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (38:00):
All day?
Speaker 12 (38:01):
Really?
Speaker 5 (38:01):
And I gotta say this started because of the Salem,
New Hampshire one. There was a stupid post over the weekend.
The Salem one is actually really good. I moved from Haveral,
which is a complete dumpster fire the Havel. Their site
is insane. I mean there was just NonStop drama fighting.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Oh maybe I'll go to that one.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
That's a good one. The Salem, New Hampshire one is
actually very good. I'm surprised they let that post about
the parades go through. Let's go to Chris online two
Salem mass Bill your old hometown.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
All right, Christopher, how are you doing in Salem?
Speaker 14 (38:32):
Good morning? How are you? Can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Yeah? Tell us what's great about the Salem Facebook page?
Speaker 14 (38:37):
Well, what's interesting is that they're all controlled by local politicians,
their minions. Yeah, and I had one, one city councilor,
Jeff Cohen. I criticize some local politics that were happening
in Salem. I'm an advocate for historic preservation, and Jeff
Cohen created this secret Facebook page where you're only where
(39:01):
you're invited to it. Only those that are invited to
it can find it and comment. So he posted pictures
of me and also encouraged folks to try to get
comments taken down from Facebook. It's really evil in Salem.
Was why was because I criticized local government. You know,
(39:22):
Salem has these people on all of these social media sites.
Next door Reddit discord. If you mentioned any criticism about
local government, you're absolutely attacked and bullied from the word go,
no matter how valid your criticism is. It's really nasty
and disgusting. These people are the worst. Thank you for
(39:43):
for having a city sitting city councilor attack you on
social media. It's got to be the largest below.
Speaker 8 (39:51):
That.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Does not you a fan of this?
Speaker 14 (39:55):
Now?
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I can't I literally can't wait to get home.
Speaker 5 (39:57):
Oh yeah, let's let's go. Let's go to quin when
Wendy's I'm sick if you couldn't come, hard time.
Speaker 8 (40:05):
The mod for the page of where Whenny's hometown is
is on a power trip. He banned my husband for
making a joke about a plane and then banned me
by association.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Okay, I'm not no, she's I'm in that group everything.
Speaker 6 (40:21):
Of course I think that every probably everything Quincy.
Speaker 4 (40:24):
You're the only one not.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
On a field. Why do you care?
Speaker 13 (40:27):
You know?
Speaker 14 (40:29):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (40:30):
I've lived there my entire life, I've been on I've
been good for years. But this guy that runs the
everything Quinsy one, he is like he will ban you,
he will delete your posts, like he's like cuckoo for
cocoa puffs.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
Like, he'll probably ban me now. But I don't really write.
I just read stuff.
Speaker 6 (40:45):
But like if you don't, if you say anything he
doesn't like, it's weird.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
Wow, I don't know which town to join. I'm literally
looking at it right now.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
It sounds like Salem's very angry. That face very angry.
So does Quinsy. I love Quincy, but that those Facebook
pages are Next time you live in Randolph, why don't
I do? Well?
Speaker 6 (41:05):
I've been in the Quinsy one forever. Oh okay, but
I mean I could join the Randolph.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
Let's go to Lowell. This should be very cool. John
is in Lowell. Good morning John. Talk about the Facebook
page and Lowell.
Speaker 14 (41:16):
Uh yeah, the one in Lowell they have because you
were talking about the helicopters, they have one. It's called
helicopters over Lowell.
Speaker 13 (41:23):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Why don't get the fascinations?
Speaker 14 (41:28):
Yeah, it's it's absolutely crazy to stuff that. People they
just have to just hear one in the distance and
then they just start posting what was that? What's this?
Speaker 10 (41:38):
What's that?
Speaker 7 (41:39):
My ring?
Speaker 14 (41:41):
Ring? Even?
Speaker 1 (41:42):
Did you ever go on ring on your neighborhood things? Oh? Yeah,
oh yeah, a ring camera you can. You can post
there's a ring camera group. Yeah, like I I you know,
I lost my pet. There's an accident.
Speaker 5 (41:55):
I'm so they post the footage from the ring camera.
I think my wife has done that.
Speaker 1 (42:00):
Yeah, okay, we have Anonymous. Now we're getting good. Good
morning Anonymous. I know you can't tell us the town,
but give us the highlights.
Speaker 13 (42:08):
Oh no, I can tell you.
Speaker 7 (42:09):
The town is Lynn.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
Okay, Lynn's got to be good. Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 13 (42:16):
So Linn has this page and we have a moderator
or admin on there, and he just stirs the pot.
He literally looks for everything and anything that goes on
in the city, a coyote, anything that happens at the schools,
any tiny little rumor that he hears. He's like a
little troll that sits in his mom's basement and stirs
(42:37):
the pots.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
They're always in the basement.
Speaker 13 (42:39):
Oh, and he'll go, oh, did you guys hear about
the scandal at such and such a place? And then
everybody wants to know what's going on and it turns
out to be nothing because he's got nothing better to
do with his life.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
So, okay, explain the administrator Anonymous to me, Like, did
they have power, like they do. They have the power
of controlling europe posts.
Speaker 13 (42:59):
No, he's well, yeah he can, he can.
Speaker 1 (43:03):
They started the group that person.
Speaker 13 (43:05):
Oh okay, he started the group and thinks that he's
like basically somebody high up in the city.
Speaker 1 (43:11):
So why not just stay out of his group.
Speaker 13 (43:15):
Because it's funny to watch.
Speaker 4 (43:17):
Yeah, yeah, that's it. That's all all, you know.
Speaker 5 (43:21):
But here's the thing, right, I love the Facebook groups
for the good things, and that's like if you need
somebody to come work, you know, things like that. You
get good tips sell stuff on some of those like
my pool guy Electrician.
Speaker 1 (43:33):
All got it from the Facebook from Facebook page.
Speaker 4 (43:35):
Like my pool guy. His name is Bob.
Speaker 5 (43:37):
He's like, you know, he only doesn't advertise, it's all
through Facebook way Yeah, and he does very does very well.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
So God, I've been looking for a guy forever. I
gotta get on the Medford page there you go.
Speaker 11 (43:48):
So like Justin and Riley, I am from family in Hampshire.
I actually grew up there, so I know how crazy
we are as a town unit. My husband is from
Mathew Dehon. He likes to post on the SAMI the
Hampshire Residence page for people to do odd jobs, and
we had someone come to winterrise the sprinklers one time,
and I came home and he had a cigarette in
(44:08):
one hand a beer in the other, and he was
peeing down my driveway
Now this morning show in Boston, Billy and Lisa.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
In the morning.
Speaker 1 (00:04):
It's just a great start to my day on Kids one. Wait, yeah,
that's what it is. It's a great start to your day.
And all I gotta say, Lisa Dunovan is cold. Huh,
old boy. It is chilly out there this morning, in
the twenties. If you're waking up and getting set to
head out this morning.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
And we're gonna see snow on Thursday out in like
the Worcester Hills a few inches.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Yeah, north and west now, justin when they say north
and west of the city, does that include you? Are
you north enough to be considered north?
Speaker 4 (00:34):
And I am north?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Yeah, I mean usually it could be slick for you
coming in on Thursday.
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Always colder, always more snow. It was in the teens
this morning. You had twenties. I had teens, so so
we go.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, it's cold out there this morning. And by the way,
we want to point out very clearly that today is
Giving Tuesday. Today is the National Day of Giving. This
is Giving Tuesday. Every year on the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving.
Giving need exists in every community. It's National Day of
Giving Today.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Everything everything use the spirit of the holiday season to
help other people.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Happy National day of Giving showtime.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Giving Tuesday, Give it to me.
Speaker 6 (01:16):
You guys are so sweet because I in my head
it's travel Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
It certainly a good deal today. Give the gifts to
yourself to travel. Yeah, so you can give to others
in need, but you could also give to yourself today
because it's travel Tuesday, and that means airlines, airlines, hotels, yeah, cruises,
and they're already a good deal. Imagine what the deals
(01:43):
are there. You can almost go for free.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
Yeah, Giving Tuesday, Give it to me, give it to us,
give it to.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
And what are the odds on Giving Tuesday that we
would book Lauren Baker, the former First Lady of Massachusetts,
who's coming in the studio shark about her Wonderfunk.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
It's one of our favorite charities of the year.
Speaker 1 (02:03):

of John Williams's magical score with it. That'll be on
(19:54):
the twenty seventh, twenty eighth, and twenty ninth, So you know,
once the rapping is cleaned up and you're really wondering
what you're going to do with those kids who still
have the rest of the week off. So true, and
you know it used to be throw them out in
the snow drift, but that doesn't seem likely.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
So yeah, and Home Alone is one of those movies
you know that people debate is it really a Christmas movie?
And I think it is definitely a Christmas movie.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
Well, it certainly takes place, yeah, and the music is
very seasonal. There's a couple of wonderful carols actually that
John wrote with Leslie Brickers in that movie that we
feature out on their own during holiday pops.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
And it's funny Keith, because I was going to ask you,
how is it going to work when you do the
Home Alone? So will you show the movie in its
entirety with that beautiful sound system?
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Yes? We show the movie in its entirety, and the
Boston Pops plays all of the hour and twenty minutes
of music in the movie live, so you'll still hear
the dialogue, the sound effects, all those things will be
with the movie, and we will play all of the music.
You mean, you've never seen movie movie is live with orchestra.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Before all the time.
Speaker 7 (20:59):
This is wow, it's discovery time. It's it's an amazing thing.
It's an amazing way to here really hear the music
in a much deeper way than you do when when
you listen to it in the theater, because in the
theater the director will will drop it down under dialogue.
You'll hear a little bit of what's going on. And
for John scores, which are so musically rich, it's it's
(21:19):
really incredible.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Justin can you give us a clip from the movie.
Let's take them there.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Well, it's airing after Christmas, right, Keith, Yes, nine. I
mean they're gonna want more Christmas.
Speaker 13 (21:29):
You guys give up for more.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
So okay, so you have to stand there with the baton.
Do you call it a baton?
Speaker 7 (21:39):
I just stand there with the baton.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Yeah, no, But you're conductors for the entire movie. Like
typically you'll stop down and tell stories.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
Well, no, it is. It is basically I acknowledge the orchestra,
acknowledge the crowds, sit down and conduct and it's really
amazing the way people responded. We've done so many of
the next spring, for instance, not to give too much stuff,
but we're going to do Jaws.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Oh wow, I when is Jaws? Do you have the
dates at the top of your head?
Speaker 7 (22:05):
Next spring? We haven't announced the season yet, but that
will be our special John Williams movie during that time.
That's wow, it's the fiftieth anniversary of that movie.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Now, as a my strug, is that extra exciting for
you doing John Williams or well.
Speaker 7 (22:23):
I mean conducting film score in general. Is it's a
whole different challenge because the kind of focus you have
to have to go through some of these cues, which
we're all put together, you know, one little bit at
a time in a studio originally, but to conduct them
live and to stay exactly tracked so that you know,
when Indiana Jones throws a punch, the orchestra's punch is
(22:44):
right with you.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Know.
Speaker 7 (22:45):
That sort of stuff is it's a big mental challenge.
They're exhausting and take us behind the scenes.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Are there certain shows that you do that don't require
certain instruments and you have to tell people to take
a break? You're not including this one, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 7 (22:59):
I'm just curious you have to tell. They're usually pretty
grateful to get that. There are instruments that are used
in pretty much everything we do on stage. Obviously, the strings,
for instance, are examples of those. And then with the
full Boston Symphony, of which the Boston Pops is a part,
you know, for instance, we'll carry we have four flute
players and four obo players, and et cetera, et cetera,
(23:21):
but they're not all used in every piece.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
I would think the obos are always necessary. Well, you
would very mysterious. I think of the oboe as the
bass guitarist. It's like the odd duck in the orchestra,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
It's funny they think the exact same thing.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
You know what I mean? Right, bass players, it's kind
of the silent guy. He's never the front man, or
rarely the front man.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
You know.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
I always pay close attention to the oboeists. Do you
call them oboists?
Speaker 7 (23:51):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Okay, not not.
Speaker 7 (23:53):
Quite in the same way you do, but you call them.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
And we're talking to Keith Lockhart, who is the conductor
of the Boston Pops. Now, are you a right hander?
I am, you're right handed.
Speaker 7 (24:06):
So we tell other conducting students if you're left handed,
too bad. It's actually it's it's it's actually a very
ambidextrous sort of profession. You use both hands and says,
I don't use a baton my hands are using.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Oh, you don't really, because I was going to ask if.
Speaker 7 (24:23):
Bigger well, long story, physical physical damage over enough, so
wear and tears. It's so yeah, it's a it's a
you know, kind of a Tommy John sort.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Of so are you in pain as you're conducting for
the last twenty years because I've got a bad shoulder,
so I can exactly.
Speaker 7 (24:43):
Well, you know, it's just I mean, it's it's I
tell people and they never believe it. I mean all
everything everybody does on stage is really an athletic thing.
It's a small motor athletic skill. But with conducting, what
happens is you're basically throwing pitches same you. Conductors get
the same yeah damages that pictures do. And they say, well,
you're not throwing ninety eight miles an hour. I said, yes,
(25:05):
but I'm throwing at sixty five and I've been throwing
at the age of the Vibe and the picture has
been retired for thirty years. So it's just it's it's
chronic wearing terr as opposed to a cute wear.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
And so are there certain workouts you do as a maestro?
Speaker 7 (25:18):
You just try to stay limberry, I mean good you
want to be. If I were really attentive.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
I'd be doing yoga and plates.
Speaker 7 (25:24):
I'm starting plots in the new year.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Oh good for you, Oh good for you.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
Keith.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
My wife has has imposed that as a as a
good idea because I need to fix the core.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
You know, now I heard a rumor, Keith.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
This is more information.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
We go behind the scene with Keith Lockhart. I heard
a rumor than in twenty twenty five mid year, I
think possibly next summer the Pops will be doing an
entire night of Kendrick Lamar. Was that just a rumor?
Speaker 8 (25:53):
Or?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
You have squabble up in there. Let's give Keith a
squabble out. Squabble out star. I would think the obo
is big enough, is huge. You know that little a
low end. Yeah right, I don't know what I'm talking.
Do you listen to when you're driving around?
Speaker 7 (26:10):
Nothing? I can't say this in front of your audience,
n PR.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
That's okay.
Speaker 7 (26:17):
I listened to Jim and Marjorie a lot.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
You know I was on their show.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
I know you were a show. That's when I reached
out and then to a text because you were on
discussing your cookbook.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Yes, it's Mark Wahlberg intro.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
Yeah, I said, Billy Costa knows Mark. I should be
nicer to speaking of that. What I was asking Billy
for actually was a contact to Mark to come join
us at holiday pops and possibly read. And Mark, if
you're listening, I know you're in Europe doing.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
He usually does in the gym.
Speaker 7 (26:53):
Oh, that's cool. You know the door is open, and
both Affleck brothers have done it, but we know you'd
be better.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Well both impressive, O Casey. He's an intense guy.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Is it an intense guy?
Speaker 10 (27:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (27:07):
So anyway, I told you there was a surprise.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Yes, what's the surprise?
Speaker 7 (27:11):
The surprise is that, you know, kiss you guys have
been so great to us and and Billy, you know
we if we go back a long, long way. How
would you two like to come and read?
Speaker 9 (27:24):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (27:25):
Twas the night before Christmas?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
It'll be fun on the Holiday Pops. What would I wear?
Speaker 13 (27:30):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Get a new dress? Well, you know, we'll check our
schedule and it's so nice that you would ask us.
Speaker 7 (27:40):
Yeah, wow, guy, you guys would be wonderful. We have
a wonderful two person version that we have lots of
pature sets to do together.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
And he couldn't get Mark Wahlberg, so.
Speaker 14 (27:49):
He's like.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
He's run on absolutely right the next on the list. Listen.
There's nothing like the Holiday Pops. You've got to check
it out. It is one of the most magnificent nights
you will spend with your family. And if you want
to get tickets for any of the shows, which include
the home alone specials, just go to Boston Pops dot org.
That's Boston Pops dot Org. Keith, it's always a pleasure
(28:14):
to see you.
Speaker 7 (28:15):
Thanks really good to see both of you. Happy holidays
and to all of good night, Bi and Lisa.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Hey, guys, welcome back. Nice to see Keith Lockhart as
he is the best the maestro of the Boston Pops
Holiday Pops that we've been and there's just nothing like it.
It is the holiday season. It's a magic other than
our jingle Ball Holiday pops. It's a great combo, very combo.
Do you both? We have the ticket tag. A couple
of minutes ago. I want to congratulate Heather green Field
(28:44):
who did get back to us within the fifteen minute deadline,
so she gets a pair of tickets for the completely
sold out jingle Ball which happens December fifteenth. So a
lot of cities in towns have these weird Facebook sites
right justin and just people chime in and give their
thoughts and everything in.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
Yeah, it's the Facebook town groups. Yeah, this has to
be revisited. We did this a couple of years ago.
We actually had one of the top tech talkers, local
guy Nobody Cares Anthony if you don't follow him hit Yeah.
He literally made a career on making fun of these
Facebook groups because every town has one, and some of
them are just outright insane right now, the purpose of
(29:24):
them is to provide information right like about the town,
about where to go for certain things, you know, that
kind of stuff. But they get really nasty and crazy.
Situation happened over the weekend in Salem New Hampshire where
I live.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Ooh okay.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
So Sunday morning, woke up and my wife's jen said,
I'm bringing the kids to the Santa Parade. They have
it every year in Salem. So my daughter so excited
to see Santa. The whole morning, got dressed up in
the Christmas outfit. My son was excited. He doesn't get
excited about anything, right, So all morning long, they're getting ready.
Speaker 4 (29:56):
They leave, right.
Speaker 5 (29:57):
I had to stay and do some other things, and
so she said, pictures of the kids at the parade happy.
And I open my Facebook page. In the Salem, New
Hampshire local Facebook group, a guy writes, please stop with
the stupid parades in twenty twenty five, like who hurt
this guy? So then of course the comments go crazy
like you're a grange, you know, how dare you? Et cetera,
(30:20):
et cetera, And you know it got me thinking these
groups are crazy.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
I'm crazy.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Well, when I have a story, a recent story at
the during the election, I saved my I voted sticker
from the last time I voted, and I used it
and I posted a picture of me saying I voted.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well. I guess my friend told me that in Milton.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
It was like an uproar because people were upset that
I got a sticker at my polling set and they
didn't get a sticker.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
But I didn't get a sticker last year. It was
from the last time I voted. I just saved it
and I used it because it was a nice picture.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
So it caused a whole like uproar in the town.
How did Lisa get a sticker?
Speaker 1 (31:01):
I would have felt the same way because the place
we have to vote never had stickers, right, We've never
had stickers, And I'm like, we used to have stickers
and now there are no stickers.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
That's a good example right there. So someone probably posted
your picture, yes, And people just they just write whatever
they want.
Speaker 4 (31:16):
They feel crazy over the stupidest things.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
How did she get a vote? Sticks? From Bill Lisa
Morning Show. That's how she got hurt. Now, let me
ask about these Facebook sites for the cities and towns.
Did they start as like official sites for city leaders.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
And somebody them and they start out good? And the
whole thing is moderation. Okay, they have moderators like admins
that run the group and they're supposed to check and
approve posts and not approve like not appropriate ones. So
the town group, the town Facebook pages that don't have
admins are just the wild wild West.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
But the issue is whatever you want.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
Sometimes the admins are evil and they're like they're corrupt,
like they're inside the government, liked the inside the mayor's office,
and they're like they're like doing all these weird things
and like the only approved certain things. If it does
if it goes against what they it's weird against politically,
it's very political.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
It's very political. It's weird.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
I bring it up is because I posted that on
my Instagram story, that yeah parade thing, and I got
so many dms from our listeners talking about their town
Facebook page.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
And all the drama in this town and that town,
and it's just insane.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Can I go back to sixty seconds ago? Okay, there
are people whose job it is to administer the town Facebook.
Well it's like a volunteer thing. They're not getting paid.
It's like they created the group. They add and they say,
oh you can get you know, it can go crazy.
People can really abuse the town Facebook.
Speaker 8 (32:45):
It's interesting during.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
Election years in these towns, they go so political crazy.
Speaker 5 (32:51):
It's always like this helicopter what's that sound? Anybody here
the chopper? Why is there a helicopter? Well, did you
get to the parade?
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Did you see there was a fender bender in the
corner of It's like, yeah, my.
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Kids went to the parade.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
They loved it.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
It was great.
Speaker 5 (33:06):
I understand this guy probably doesn't have kids, doesn't care,
probably disrupts.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
Yeah, his Sunday.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
I get it.
Speaker 4 (33:13):
It's not for you, it's for kids.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
All I know is I've never heard of this, But
I can't wait to go home and get into the
Medford page for Medford. I want to start arguments and everything.
Speaker 5 (33:25):
If there's a listener out there in Medford that belongs
to the Medford Yeah, a town group, make sure you
hit us up.
Speaker 13 (33:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Topic time is up next this one seven nine? Wait,
how do they get to the tarkback? Mike Justine?
Speaker 5 (33:36):
You can just record your message right into your phone
on the iHeart app. It's that red microphone that you
tap it and boom, you're in top of the next.
Speaker 7 (33:44):
What is the topic today?
Speaker 15 (33:45):
We're going to be talking.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
Billy and Lisa present to talk amongst your topic times.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
Yeah, we do this every day at this time, precisely,
at this time, you know, we just come up with
the topic and we just start debating and talking about
it and today's topic city and town facebook pages. I
got to tell you, when I first heard it, I
thought it was lame. I can't wait to go home
now and start posting messages. Now, the Medford one is
supposed to be super lit. There's people on the phone
that belong to the Medford one. Oh really, let's go right,
(34:15):
let's go to Melissa first. Good morning, and let's are
you calling for Medford?
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Yes, good morning guys.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
How are you good? So what do you participate? Are
you an administrator? What's the deal?
Speaker 13 (34:26):
No?
Speaker 2 (34:27):
No, no, no, So I'm I don't know how I
became a member of a bunch. But there's a bunch.
You know, there's a politics one, there's a mom Metford
Mom's one, and we I have a group chat with
a bunch of moms that I'm friends with. So often
when something is really wacky that's posted, we'll like screenshot
it and then have our own little like comit thing
about it.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Oh, so what's the hot topic now in Medford? I
need to know so when I go home, I can
join your group.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Well, honestly, you know, Thanksgiving was this last week and
it was a great holiday. Come home. You get into
bed cast groll on the phone, and I couldn't believe
I was seeing people post all of their leftover food.
Oh oh like dare like and to pick up and
it sounds like a really nice notion for those who
are less fortunate, but like, oh, as a nurse, I'm like,
(35:15):
that's gross. I don't want someone left over turkey.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
Yeah. Well, I mean it's the thought that counts. I mean,
some people maybe needed food, and so this is God,
this is even worse than I thought. Boy, the screams Facebook,
doesn't it.
Speaker 5 (35:29):
Yeah, they post the craziest stuff. Eileen is also on
the Medford one.
Speaker 1 (35:34):
Okay, thank you, Well, let's let's go to Eileen. Eileen,
which Medford group are you in on Facebook?
Speaker 13 (35:41):
Good morning guys. I'm on the regular medfood page and
it's pretty tame. Most times it's just met for them A.
It's a lot of coyote sidings. You're right, a lot
of leftover food last week, which sort of grossed me
out too.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Some of it didn't look greatly Wow, so.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
That's the big story thanks to being leftovers on the
Medford Facebook page. Well to go, where to get leftovers?
Speaker 3 (36:07):
Anywhere?
Speaker 8 (36:08):
Right?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
This is really funny. I think that's I can't wait
to play. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (36:13):
We're got to figure out which which Medford group is
the one to join. Yeah, I'm hearing different things.
Speaker 15 (36:18):
Oh my god, you guys, the Medford one is insane.
I get a glass of wine, hangout, start reading, I
get updates on of course the typical so helicopter is
every coyote on the planet, we have their located.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
But the pot stirring and drama O the best?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Oh where do I go for the pot stirring drama?
That's the one I want to join a one.
Speaker 5 (36:45):
But the the the helicopter thing, that's a real thing
in every group meaning what meaning Like they hear a sound,
they think it's a helicopter, and they need to know.
They run to Facebook and they post on the group
was that a helicopter?
Speaker 15 (36:59):
Justin You are so spot on with the helicopter thing,
Like people are like, why is there a helicopter flying?
Speaker 8 (37:06):
Who cares?
Speaker 1 (37:07):
You've never seen a helicopter before? Is that your first
thought to.
Speaker 15 (37:10):
Be, like, oh my god, I gotta go post on
the Facebook page and ask why they're the helicopter.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I don't get it either. Helicopters fly around all this time.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
I know, but can you just look up and see
if it's a helicopter sometimes or if they see it,
but they want to know why?
Speaker 1 (37:23):
Oh is there like an emergency?
Speaker 4 (37:24):
Yeah, they want to know what happened?
Speaker 1 (37:26):
Would be a traffic helicopter.
Speaker 4 (37:27):
Busy bodies.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
That's how it is so much more trivial. I thought,
I love its going.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
Down the street to Maldon's.
Speaker 13 (37:33):
We're God justin. There's a chick on the Mauldin community page.
Every time there's a siren or a helicopter, she's on
there like a frigging Gratis crabbit.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
Like, oh my god, they get a life.
Speaker 13 (37:48):
Yes, exactly what you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Oh yeah, sirens that's another thing. Anybody hear those sirens?
What's going on in an ambulance or a fire truck?
Is it a police Really? Did they sit at home
and do this?
Speaker 8 (38:00):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (38:00):
All day?
Speaker 12 (38:01):
Really?
Speaker 5 (38:01):
And I gotta say this started because of the Salem,
New Hampshire one. There was a stupid post over the weekend.
The Salem one is actually really good. I moved from Haveral,
which is a complete dumpster fire the Havel. Their site
is insane. I mean there was just NonStop drama fighting.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Oh maybe I'll go to that one.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
That's a good one. The Salem, New Hampshire one is
actually very good. I'm surprised they let that post about
the parades go through. Let's go to Chris online two
Salem mass Bill your old hometown.
Speaker 1 (38:29):
All right, Christopher, how are you doing in Salem?
Speaker 14 (38:32):
Good morning? How are you? Can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Yeah? Tell us what's great about the Salem Facebook page?
Speaker 14 (38:37):
Well, what's interesting is that they're all controlled by local politicians,
their minions. Yeah, and I had one, one city councilor,
Jeff Cohen. I criticize some local politics that were happening
in Salem. I'm an advocate for historic preservation, and Jeff
Cohen created this secret Facebook page where you're only where
(39:01):
you're invited to it. Only those that are invited to
it can find it and comment. So he posted pictures
of me and also encouraged folks to try to get
comments taken down from Facebook. It's really evil in Salem.
Was why was because I criticized local government. You know,
(39:22):
Salem has these people on all of these social media sites.
Next door Reddit discord. If you mentioned any criticism about
local government, you're absolutely attacked and bullied from the word go,
no matter how valid your criticism is. It's really nasty
and disgusting. These people are the worst. Thank you for
(39:43):
for having a city sitting city councilor attack you on
social media. It's got to be the largest below.
Speaker 8 (39:51):
That.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Does not you a fan of this?
Speaker 14 (39:55):
Now?
Speaker 1 (39:55):
I can't I literally can't wait to get home.
Speaker 5 (39:57):
Oh yeah, let's let's go. Let's go to quin when
Wendy's I'm sick if you couldn't come, hard time.
Speaker 8 (40:05):
The mod for the page of where Whenny's hometown is
is on a power trip. He banned my husband for
making a joke about a plane and then banned me
by association.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Okay, I'm not no, she's I'm in that group everything.
Speaker 6 (40:21):
Of course I think that every probably everything Quincy.
Speaker 4 (40:24):
You're the only one not.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
On a field. Why do you care?
Speaker 13 (40:27):
You know?
Speaker 14 (40:29):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (40:30):
I've lived there my entire life, I've been on I've
been good for years. But this guy that runs the
everything Quinsy one, he is like he will ban you,
he will delete your posts, like he's like cuckoo for
cocoa puffs.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
Like, he'll probably ban me now. But I don't really write.
I just read stuff.
Speaker 6 (40:45):
But like if you don't, if you say anything he
doesn't like, it's weird.
Speaker 1 (40:49):
Wow, I don't know which town to join. I'm literally
looking at it right now.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
It sounds like Salem's very angry. That face very angry.
So does Quinsy. I love Quincy, but that those Facebook
pages are Next time you live in Randolph, why don't
I do? Well?
Speaker 6 (41:05):
I've been in the Quinsy one forever. Oh okay, but
I mean I could join the Randolph.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
Let's go to Lowell. This should be very cool. John
is in Lowell. Good morning John. Talk about the Facebook
page and Lowell.
Speaker 14 (41:16):
Uh yeah, the one in Lowell they have because you
were talking about the helicopters, they have one. It's called
helicopters over Lowell.
Speaker 13 (41:23):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Why don't get the fascinations?
Speaker 14 (41:28):
Yeah, it's it's absolutely crazy to stuff that. People they
just have to just hear one in the distance and
then they just start posting what was that? What's this?
Speaker 10 (41:38):
What's that?
Speaker 7 (41:39):
My ring?
Speaker 14 (41:41):
Ring? Even?
Speaker 1 (41:42):
Did you ever go on ring on your neighborhood things? Oh? Yeah,
oh yeah, a ring camera you can. You can post
there's a ring camera group. Yeah, like I I you know,
I lost my pet. There's an accident.
Speaker 5 (41:55):
I'm so they post the footage from the ring camera.
I think my wife has done that.
Speaker 1 (42:00):
Yeah, okay, we have Anonymous. Now we're getting good. Good
morning Anonymous. I know you can't tell us the town,
but give us the highlights.
Speaker 13 (42:08):
Oh no, I can tell you.
Speaker 7 (42:09):
The town is Lynn.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
Okay, Lynn's got to be good. Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 13 (42:16):
So Linn has this page and we have a moderator
or admin on there, and he just stirs the pot.
He literally looks for everything and anything that goes on
in the city, a coyote, anything that happens at the schools,
any tiny little rumor that he hears. He's like a
little troll that sits in his mom's basement and stirs
(42:37):
the pots.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
They're always in the basement.
Speaker 13 (42:39):
Oh, and he'll go, oh, did you guys hear about
the scandal at such and such a place? And then
everybody wants to know what's going on and it turns
out to be nothing because he's got nothing better to
do with his life.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
So, okay, explain the administrator Anonymous to me, Like, did
they have power, like they do. They have the power
of controlling europe posts.
Speaker 13 (42:59):
No, he's well, yeah he can, he can.
Speaker 1 (43:03):
They started the group that person.
Speaker 13 (43:05):
Oh okay, he started the group and thinks that he's
like basically somebody high up in the city.
Speaker 1 (43:11):
So why not just stay out of his group.
Speaker 13 (43:15):
Because it's funny to watch.
Speaker 4 (43:17):
Yeah, yeah, that's it. That's all all, you know.
Speaker 5 (43:21):
But here's the thing, right, I love the Facebook groups
for the good things, and that's like if you need
somebody to come work, you know, things like that. You
get good tips sell stuff on some of those like
my pool guy Electrician.
Speaker 1 (43:33):
All got it from the Facebook from Facebook page.
Speaker 4 (43:35):
Like my pool guy. His name is Bob.
Speaker 5 (43:37):
He's like, you know, he only doesn't advertise, it's all
through Facebook way Yeah, and he does very does very well.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
So God, I've been looking for a guy forever. I
gotta get on the Medford page there you go.
Speaker 11 (43:48):
So like Justin and Riley, I am from family in Hampshire.
I actually grew up there, so I know how crazy
we are as a town unit. My husband is from
Mathew Dehon. He likes to post on the SAMI the
Hampshire Residence page for people to do odd jobs, and
we had someone come to winterrise the sprinklers one time,
and I came home and he had a cigarette in
(44:08):
one hand a beer in the other, and he was
peeing down my driveway
