Is The Kowloon Actually Closing? Answer: We Still Don't Know

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey guys, So welcome back. Yeah, it's the Billy and
Lisa Morning Show. It's the Monday edition. It is well
just after a ten in the morning. We've got a
pair of tickets with the jingle ball, which is this
coming Sunday night. It's sold out in like three maybe
four minutes, but caller twenty five. You can have a
pair of tickets providing you know the code word, and
the code word is Kowloon, and Kowloon is the key

(00:24):
word because today's the day that Kowloon documentary drops.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
It was my father's dreams that had a great restaurant
like this built. My mindset was always towards business, but
it never was to take over the business. Now it's
a passion that started helping my parents and I just
grew from there.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah. That's Bobby Wong from the Kyle Luon or the
owner well family owned kyl luon Route one in Saugu's
famous place, and he's on the phone right now. Good morning, Bobby,
Good morning Billy. So Bobby the Colllun. When I think
of the Kowloon, it's like I think the original place
where everybody knew your name, like you and your entire

(01:09):
family knew most of the people that would come in
every day and.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Night, right right, Well, we do have a loyal following,
so we've been fortunate with that and having family members
working every day there, you get to know them. You
probably see them more than you see your family, so
in some cases, especially with employees, but you know, we've
been fortunate to have people that really enjoyed dining at

(01:34):
the restaurant over the years, and we'd be on our
seventy fifth year coming up next year.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Well, one of the most comforting things about the collun
Bobby is that most of the family works there and
you guys are always there.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Yeah, it's a job. It's hands on, especially being a
family restaurant, family run, there's not really a lot of
corporate structure, so everybody does everything. And we've been doing
it since we were little kids. So we did it
as a love for our parents and they kind of
grew and it gets uh, it becomes part of your life.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Now. Who whose idea was the documentary and how did
it happen?

Speaker 3 (02:16):
It's we. We didn't search out for anybody to do this.
It was actually somebody that reached through email and her
name was Mona. Mona and she had done some projects
I think with Netflix before as well as other documentaries
that she had done, and she reached out and she

(02:36):
thought that column would be a fun documentary and interesting
documentary to do. So she reached out and they brought
their crew here, great crew, and they spent quite a
bit of time. As you know probably on TV this
most of the things don't get on on that gets
it actually gets on the cutting room, so it gets
on the screen. So they were here a long time

(02:59):
and they they did some great shots. It was it
was actually a very nice that they reached out to
us to do this.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Well, last night you sent me the doc uh to
my email and I'm watching it and out of nowhere,
my lifelong friend Dukie is in the documentary. I think
we have a clip. It's a situation. It's been going
off for decades. People like myself, we need this place.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
How about that he was just here Friday? They ever
mentioned it?

Speaker 3 (03:32):
I know, of course he was at the bar.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
I got to tell you something. He is your biggest
fan of the Kowloon. Every single holiday, every single birthday, celebration, anything,
they go to the Kowloon. Everything happens at the Kowloon.
And I don't know if you realize this, but there's
a really popular singer Charlie Pooth, and we had him
in studio one day and he was raving about the Kloon.

Speaker 5 (04:00):
I love the Caloun. I love how big it is.
The waiters and waitresses, Oh sorry, servers, it's twenty seventeen.
They don't people wait people, They don't talk to you
when you're like, we're at the table for six last
night and the guy just comes over and goes and
my sister goes, Okay, I guess I what's your favorite drink?

Speaker 1 (04:21):
And he goes, what do you want? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (04:24):
Well, you know what.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
It's like a people factory there. I mean, yeah, no idea.
I bet it was crowded.

Speaker 5 (04:28):
It was very crowded, but you know what, no one
gave a rats ass that I was there.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Do you remember Charlie.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
Being their body?

Speaker 3 (04:40):
Yeah, yeah, he was there, but probably none of my
staff recognizes him. I don't know why they don't listen
to that music. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
But it's funny because for years and years, the wrestlers
always came to the Cologne if there was a big
wrestling car. The TD Garden or even the old Boston Garden.
They were all leave the show at the end of
the night and then go to the colune. When did
that start? And how.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
I don't know my brother Andy, he's the wrestling bug,
and I have to keep telling him it's nuts, it's
not real, and he doesn't believe me, and he gets
reeled end up fighting about it. But they started coming
in after the show and he just gravitates to those
guys and I mean people. It's amazing how they just
started coming after every show. And then we had the

(05:28):
Rock who was part of that in that during that
stage where he was wrestling, he would come in with
the group. And then it was John Cena and so
Andy has these guys phone numbers and he just calls
them any times. Well with so many money down, then
he gets the back room still save for them.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Bobby, it's so funny you just said that you couldn't
convince Andy that wrestling wasn't real. When I used to
drive into Kiss at four o'clock in the morning, there
used to be a dunkin Donuts on Route sixteen as
I headed in, and I ran into Andy a few
times at four o'clock in the morning. How are you
doing here at four in the morning, because he was
at the Koloun watching the wrestling matches until three in

(06:06):
the morning because he couldn't get to the garden.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
That's how crazy it is. But it's a lot of fun.
He met a lot a lot of great people too.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Okay, Bobby, is the Coloun really closing, because I've never
seen the kloon more since you announced it it was closing.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
Well, we're behind schedule, let's put it that way.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
But usually people are behind schedule building a restaurant, you're
behind schedule closing it.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
I know we're behind scheduled, but we're not kind of
closed permanent. We're actually going to downside. And you know,
I don't think I could stop doing doing this for
some reason. And you know, we have a lot of
great people that have been working for us, and I
can't put them out in the street. So then they're
going to be part on this. I'm going to make
them all part of it. It's awesome.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
That's the kind of guy he is. That's the kind
of family the wrong family is. Bobby. Congratulations on the documentary.
We're going to bring the whole show in real soon.
Where can we see, all right, thank you very before
we go. He doesn't know. Watch me, Bobby, where do
we get the documentary?

Speaker 3 (07:08):
It's on vimeo v I m e Oh, I guess
it was a staff pick. I guess when we were
in a lot of these film festivals and we've got
a lot of win any Academy of Water and.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
Yeah, you have a documentary.

Speaker 3 (07:26):
We don't ye what I'll do without. Maybe I'll have
my sister on mailing, put it on the web on
the there you go up site and uh well, everybody
just click onto.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
It, all right, Bobby, take care, body, love you.

Speaker 7 (07:39):
Congratulations to Chanel. She won the sold out jingle ball tickets.
Nine ten is your next shot? Where's Story's next? Little
controversy on the song ymc Away.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
It seems a little weird to me. Oh my god,
it's time for weird stories.

Speaker 8 (07:55):
I'm pretty creepy.

Speaker 9 (07:55):
With Billy and Lisa in the morning, all right.

Speaker 10 (07:58):
So I saw this over the and I'm like, I
have to bring this in on Monday for weird stories.
The oldest known wild bird in the entire world. Her
name is Wisdom. She's a Leason albatross. She just gave
birth to an egg she's seventy four, and it's with

(08:18):
a new partner.

Speaker 4 (08:20):
Oh freak.

Speaker 11 (08:21):
We know that some of the cockatoos can live for
eighty or ninety years, but whether they're still fertile, the
females at that age, it's pretty unclear.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
So this is quite extraordinary.

Speaker 11 (08:32):
This beautiful bird, Wisdom as they've called her, was banded
in nineteen fifty six by researchers, and she was laying
an egg then. And it takes at least five years
for them to be old enough to breed, so she's
at least seventy four.

Speaker 4 (08:46):
She may be older.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
That's insane, still sleeping around?

Speaker 8 (08:51):
Ye lay an egg for her?

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Right, and you're seventy four?

Speaker 4 (08:56):
You want to sleep?

Speaker 12 (08:56):
Brown?

Speaker 4 (08:57):
I applaied you, freaking you?

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Just I love this story. I've been watching it on
social Justin handed it to me this morning. Apparently there's
a lot of controversy around the village people and the
song y m c A. Now the cop from the
village people, uh and the construction worker are disagreeing. The

(09:23):
cop is insisting it's not a gay anthem right, justice right.

Speaker 6 (09:27):
I do think the gay community should be aware that
the lyrics are not referring to what they believe the
lyrics are referring to that would make the.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Song in their minds a gay.

Speaker 9 (09:38):
Anthem, such as illicit activity at the Why.

Speaker 4 (09:41):
I'd love to know what the mayor of the South
End thinks about this story. I mean you read the lyrics,
I mean, can you sing it for us?

Speaker 5 (09:47):
Justice?

Speaker 13 (09:48):
No?

Speaker 7 (09:48):
I making play something. I mean there's a couple of lines.
They have everything for young men to enjoy. You can
hang out with all the boys. It's going to stay
at the YMCA.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
It's fun to stay at the YMC.

Speaker 8 (10:04):
Didn't they swim naked?

Speaker 6 (10:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (10:06):
I don't think that had any connection though to the village.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
You don't really swim naked, as if.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
We seated the village people the naked swimming.

Speaker 10 (10:12):
It still don't get the naked swim thing.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Neither do I, And no one will give me the answer.
All I know is my brother and I and Dukie
and all of us would go there and that say, oh,
no bathing suits are allowed. They were like old guys
walking around the pool naked, everything hanging.

Speaker 10 (10:28):
Was there something wrong with like the swim suits back then?

Speaker 1 (10:30):
I don't know if they the wand I don't know.
No one to this, you understand. I host Ymca Gallows
and I ask executives and they look at me like
I'm crazy.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
You know, I got to ask my dad.

Speaker 7 (10:43):
My dad's the same same age as you Camp and
Cambridge and still goes to the y every day.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
He's been going his whole life.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
He will remember the naked swim.

Speaker 8 (10:50):
I hope he's not still naked.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah, this is weird, but it's funny because you know
the song with the hand gestures and everything. Hodo, who
is the construction worker in disagreement with the cop says
the song never would have been would have arrived if
people hadn't started doing it on American Bandstand. A bunch
of kids started doing it.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
Nothing wrong, That's what it is.

Speaker 1 (11:14):
It's fun.

Speaker 7 (11:23):
Everyone did it all right, Billy, you have you entertainment report.

Speaker 4 (11:27):
What can we expect? Some fire as Wow?

Speaker 1 (11:30):
The jingle Ball is this coming Sunday and our Los
Angeles jingle Ball was just the other night, Friday night
and a bunch of our artists coming to Boston. We're
in Los Angeles. In fact, Tate McGray was there. We're
going to hear from her coming up next tend By

Speaker 14 (11:45):

Lisa in the morning on Kiss one of eight.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Well, thank you, Sabrina Carpenter. And by the way, we
all love your Christmas special which launched Friday night. We're
going to hear a clip from that in just a
couple of minutes, but in the meantime you have talkbacks.

Speaker 4 (11:59):
Justin So.

Speaker 7 (11:59):
Billy had the weird story a couple of minutes ago
about the village people and the song YMCA. Apparently the
cop and the construction worker are fighting because the cop
says that it's not a gay anthem and the construction
worker is saying it is.

Speaker 4 (12:12):
So what's the verdict, Hello, it's the.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
May of the celt then the YMCA.

Speaker 15 (12:18):
It's as gay as a three dollar bill.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
Of course it's gay, but.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
It's all however you interpret the song, Just dance and
have fun. Have a great day.

Speaker 10 (12:27):
Now the entertainment update with a Billy codstad oh.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Man, gay is a three dollars bill? We never heard
that one, get it? But it seems funny. So the
jingle ball is this coming Sunday night, completely sold out
the TV Garden. We'll have another shot at tickets coming
up at nine to ten this morning. And we had
our jingle Ball in Los Angeles this pass Friday night.
Benson Boonemegan Trainer, they're both coming to our show Sunday night.

(12:54):
And they were both in Los Angeles, and so was
Tate McCrae, who's coming to Boston for jingle Ball, and
she's psyched and pumped. She's launching a tour right now.

Speaker 14 (13:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 13 (13:02):
I mean it's my first arena tour, which is nuts.
I've just like dreamed of doing arenas my whole life.
This whole thing is like very delusional, it's very weird.
Every moment you step on stage, you're like, how is
this my life?

Speaker 1 (13:14):
So we'll bring her to the Garden Sunday night, and
then she'll bring her tour to the Garden in Boston
August twenty sixth and twenty seventh, and Taylor Swift's Eras tour,
just about two years later finally ended in Vancouver. We
have toured the entire world with this tour.

Speaker 8 (13:34):
We have had so many adventures. It has been the.

Speaker 16 (13:37):
Most exciting, powerful, electrifying, intense, most challenging.

Speaker 8 (13:45):
Thing I've ever done in my entire life. We've gotten
to perform for over ten billion.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
People, officially the highest grossing tour of all time. Wow,
good for her, Yeah, you were going to say.

Speaker 8 (13:58):
This two point two billion.

Speaker 10 (14:00):
She raised up so many economies. Anytime she would pull
into town, businesses would improve. Yeah, she's just like spread
good like just good vibes all over the world.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Okay, so let's go round the room. So she's got
a year off now basically, and Travis is going to
be wrapping up football early next year. So are they
gonna I get pregnant?

Speaker 4 (14:21):
I think I'm just my thoughts.

Speaker 7 (14:24):
Are they're going to come to coast of cost of
Costa Rica with my family and I next summer.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
On vacation next summer. You want to don't have time
on my Instagram? You come with my family and Taylor
and Travis.

Speaker 1 (14:39):
Wow, you snuck that right in there.

Speaker 17 (14:40):
And when you're going to Portugal, to Portugal and they
probably will come to mind because there's no kids, they
don't have kids.

Speaker 8 (14:45):
Yeah, and that way they can have fun and.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Not Well, there's something for everybody.

Speaker 6 (14:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
I'm gonna be curious to see if they actually do
because everybody's been anticipating this. Get pregnant thing for Taylor's rip.

Speaker 8 (14:56):
Well she is, she'll be thirty five or like?

Speaker 1 (15:00):
Or do they get engaged over the holidays.

Speaker 8 (15:02):
I don't know, we'll see.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
That would be a little obvious.

Speaker 8 (15:05):
I think they won't talk about it though. I guarantee
they'll be engaged, and they'll never talk about it publicly.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Yeah. Sabrina Carpenter's Christmas special landing on Netflix this past
Friday night. We have a clip Welcome to a nonsense Christmas.

Speaker 14 (15:17):
You could have been anywhere tonight, spending time with family,
helping the less fortunate, but instead you're here half watching
a big screen while scrolling social media on a smaller screen.

Speaker 8 (15:28):
And for that I'm forever grateful.

Speaker 10 (15:31):
This is a hot take for the holidays. You should
watch it. It's just like fun. There's some good singing,
so you like it. Funny skits. Yeah, it had something
for everybody.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
How long is it? I don't know.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
It's about forty five minutes.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
Yeah, oh wow, In and out.

Speaker 4 (15:43):
Yeah. They mixed up the performances with the skits.

Speaker 7 (15:45):
It's really good. They had a really good skit with
Sean Aston Rudy. He was Santa and Sabrina was dating him.
But she didn't realize it was Santa Oh, and they're
the same height.

Speaker 10 (15:56):
And then they had a ghosting one which was really funny.
Karen Levine makes a cameo, it's funny.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
And they had duets. One was with Chapel Roan. We
have a clips say this Chapel hit a few of

(16:26):
them not they sound good.

Speaker 8 (16:28):
I just unless you have George, Michael Rea and Carneie
back to the.

Speaker 10 (16:31):
Song, it just doesn't know that the original is the
only version.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
Yeah, I'd be criticizing this singing billy. What would be criticized?

Speaker 1 (16:39):
Say? I was just making an observation. It was, you know, a.

Speaker 17 (16:42):
Little pitchy, what are your music teacher?

Speaker 1 (16:50):
That there was so basically, who the hell am I
to talk exactly? There was some Sabrina Carpenter drama over
the weekend. Remember those rumors about Barry keey Oogan cheating
on Sabrino with an influencer. Well that influencer came forward

(17:11):
this weekend. She says she never even met Barret.

Speaker 8 (17:14):
I have never even encountered this man in my life.

Speaker 18 (17:16):
The only time I've seen him is on my TV
screen from watching sulburn. I reposted this video that showed
up on my for you page claiming that I was
homewrecking Sabrina Carpenter's relationship just simply because I thought it
was so ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
So what's her deal with?

Speaker 10 (17:32):
So this whole thing was kept alive by another influencer
named Olivia that was like taking shots at this girl,
Brecky Hill.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Supposedly for having the affair.

Speaker 10 (17:42):
And then you know, there were like death threats, like
people were showing up at freaking Barry's you know kid's house,
I mean social media.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
It just it's anger so dark.

Speaker 8 (17:53):
Sometimes kids like two, what are you showing up there for?

Speaker 3 (17:56):
Right?

Speaker 1 (17:57):
It was really really bad and had to deactivate its instant. Yes,
it was bad. God. In the middle of all that,
Sabrina managed to launch your new me Espresso Perfume.

Speaker 8 (18:08):
You know what, the grind doesn't stop, Bill.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
I know, I guess not just in time for the holidays.
Sixty bucks a bottle.

Speaker 8 (18:15):
I wonder if it smells like coffee?

Speaker 1 (18:17):
I doubt it. Do you want to walk around smelling
like coffee? I don't know.

Speaker 8 (18:20):
It's espress, though it depends some people like it.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
Dave Portnoy Washtool Sports by the way from Swampskift, Massachusetts,
has a net worth of one hundred and fifty million.
I think this is kind of a cool story.

Speaker 4 (18:33):
It is.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
He says he still shares his bank accounts one hundred
and fifty MILI with his ex, although they've never gotten divorced.
Check this out.

Speaker 19 (18:40):
We met when barseool is nothing, so you know, she
rode the grind up with us still like currently basically
she has access to like all my money, Like she
just wanted to be like, I'm taking it gone she.

Speaker 9 (18:56):
Could Okay, wait.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Why she was with me like every step of the way.

Speaker 19 (19:04):
In my mind, she's entitled to enjoy the fruits of
it because her and I have a very fluid relationship,
which with our finances, they she didn't want to take.
She's not like, give me half, and we've been separated
legally for a long time. The judge that our agreement
wasn't equitable to her. They're like, he's worth a lot more.

(19:25):
You have to give half. She's like, I want half,
Like wow, we pretty much agreed on how we do it,
so we're gonna do it in Florida.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
But we've had that.

Speaker 19 (19:32):
Joint bank account and it so forever, like I trust
her implicitly.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Yeah, she was with him when he had nothing. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
I like that.

Speaker 10 (19:40):
He values their relationship and it's limitless way and it
gives him comfort that they're still connected.

Speaker 8 (19:49):
That's a great relationship. I would love to have a
relationship with that.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
Yeah, what's the money thing.

Speaker 10 (19:55):
For winning, But underneath it, there's it's value. It's they
value each other.

Speaker 7 (20:01):
Look at what he's doing, been doing for brown and
chicken fry, right, same thing on a bat for her.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
He said she could have taken half she didn't want.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
I really, I really like him.

Speaker 17 (20:09):
I like I think both of them, her and him,
seemed to they probably just grew out of, you know,
their marriage. But they love each other and they respect
each other.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
And there you go.

Speaker 6 (20:17):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
And if you're just waking up, the Red Sox did
not get a superstar Wan Soto. He signed with the
Mets for seven hundred and sixty five million over fifteen years.

Speaker 4 (20:30):
Damns won that deal.

Speaker 8 (20:33):
Oh good one. Justin he's fixed again.

Speaker 4 (20:35):
You don't have to point it out, Whinnie.

Speaker 7 (20:37):
See what she does. I really thought the Socks were
going to get him, didn't You saw six.

Speaker 10 (20:43):
Months, six hundred million, You think that would be enough.

Speaker 8 (20:46):
Right, but fifteen years like what?

Speaker 13 (20:48):
Like?

Speaker 8 (20:48):
That's what I've never even heard a contract go that long.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
Yeah. I don't see John Henry offering six hundred million
no more. But apparently he did or they.

Speaker 4 (20:55):
Did, yeah, or most of his money is going to
Billy and dining playbook.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
Oh yeah. A lot of football yesterday and last night
the Chiefs, by the way, squeaked by again and that
was only because the Chargers missed what would have been
the game winning field goal, the kickle cup.

Speaker 4 (21:14):
From Matthew right.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
This is for the division for the.

Speaker 20 (21:17):
Chiefs, dision. It's the dike for the division for the Chiefs.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
That's my new favorite word. Doink, it's the doink for
the division. Rams upset the Bills. That was a great
game to watch. Forty two was the final. Tom Brady
was in the broadcast booth for that game Rams and
the Bills. Earlier in the day though, he was with
Gronk and Edelman and they asked Brady what he thought

(21:53):
about the story Bill Belichick might go to coaching a
college football team. You imagine him coaching college No, absolutely
not recruiting.

Speaker 7 (22:03):
Really want to come here, and we don't really want
you anyway, but I guess.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
You could come.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
We'll figure out your.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
Parents and use off the third party. You're gone, You're
off the wreck. And I got to tell you, Tom
Brady's getting better and better with each game. He was
really good in that game yesterday.

Speaker 8 (22:22):
I think he's good.

Speaker 1 (22:22):
I thought he was from the beginning.

Speaker 4 (22:24):
I know, I don't get it.

Speaker 7 (22:26):
So I did notice because some of the you know,
what people had a problem with, especially the Fox, was
that he wasn't going like what he would do right
when the plays. You know, he's obviously a legendary player.
He wasn't giving enough. And if you noticed on the broadcast,
he kept saying that, Tom, Tom, what would you do here?

Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah? Yeah, going into an important play, Brady would say,
here's what he needs to do right now, and they
would do it.

Speaker 4 (22:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
God, he's a scientist when it comes to the game
of football. The Bruins seven and two under new coach
Joe Sacho from Bedford, mass Uh. They won an overtime Saturday.
I watched that game. It was amazing, and the Celts
lost the Grizzlies in the gardens Saturday night, but they
did set a record for the number of three point

(23:10):
attempts they didn't make them all, but I guess it
was like twenty four to twenty five attempts at a
three points. That's how locked in they are to the
three pointers.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
They were pretty beat up, you could tell.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
Yeah, Marcus Smart's first game in the Garden since he
left the Celtics. And again, we have one more shot

their family.

Speaker 4 (33:26):
We love the Kloon.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
We've been fortunate to have people that really enjoyed dining
at the restaurant over the years, and we'll be on
our seventy fifth year coming up next.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
Seventy five years. Incredible. God, I've been going since I
was a little kid.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
It's still as packed as it ever was. It's a tradition.

Speaker 4 (33:43):
Yeah, I love it. The fish tanks were always a
big deal.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Fish tanks and let's not forget the Saugust wings.

Speaker 10 (33:49):
Come on, crab Rangoon.

Speaker 4 (33:50):
Oh so good, so good.

Speaker 7 (33:53):
Taylor Swift wrapped up her aerostour in Vancouver this weekend.
You had that story in Entertainment Bill. It's a big
deal for the Swift. We're wondering what is she going
to do next year with all the time off?

Speaker 12 (34:03):
Okay, I was a major Swiftie. I was up till
three fifteen in the morning last night. I'm exhausted. But
she is not getting married or getting pregnant next year.
She's going to take beer off and enjoy it, but
still be in the public eye because of Travis. Usually
she goes to Mia for a bit, but thankfully we

(34:24):
have Travis to keep her in the public Spolet be awesome.

Speaker 7 (34:27):
And three months into twenty twenty five, she announces I'm
pregnant and we're getting married.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
I'm just sitting here listening thinking, isn't that comforting? She
really believes herself.

Speaker 10 (34:36):
But you know what, she could be right, but who knows.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Yeah, we don't know.

Speaker 7 (34:39):
We'll wait and see, right. Yeah, the topic time for
this morning was a good one. Yankee swaps, the good,
the bad, and the ugly. We got a lot of
calls on this. I don't know, Lisa, you brought up
the women's sex year. Woman, look where you started.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
Oh my god, Lisa, my Patty. Tonight Friday night, and
I'm bringing a dill do. I'm putting a dil do
in the Yankee Swap.

Speaker 8 (35:02):
I don't care if these kids there or not.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
I'm doing it. What a freaking awesome.

Speaker 4 (35:05):
Hey, thanks Li.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
She bringing her own, okay, and it sounded like she
was bringing her own from the closet.

Speaker 10 (35:14):
I do have to say that the womanizer was the
hit at the Yankee Swap.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
Everyone wanted it.

Speaker 8 (35:19):
It's to get that keeps giving it, really does it?

Speaker 4 (35:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (35:22):
You know, apparently she just you know, she canna open
her top drawing the Yankee saw there she goes here.

Speaker 6 (35:28):
My mother in law for Christmas gave me three pairs
of bikini underwear that had cows on them. I guess
cows were big that year. I did not use them.
I kept the tags on them. The following year, I
suggested a Yankee swap at the family party. I put
the underwear back in the Yankee swap and guess who
got them? Yep, my mother in law.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
I still love the story that Justin wanted to buy
Lisa you underwell last years panties.

Speaker 4 (35:57):
Okay, do you have to bring that up?

Speaker 1 (35:58):
It was a little creepy.

Speaker 4 (36:00):
It's really embarrassing.

Speaker 7 (36:01):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (36:02):
I thought that was so powful.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
He came to me with it. Yeah, well, this is
kid getting Lisa some underwear. Like, hey, I don't think
you should do that.

Speaker 7 (36:11):
There were skims and they were hard to get, you know,
so it's a place for people like that. When you
should have heard me with Bill, I'm like, Bill, I
got a serious question. You think Lisa is an extra
small I don't want to be insulting him, I am.
And finally, okay, write that down. And finally, before we go,

(36:37):
I have to make a shout out here. I had
mentioned my plumber friend Alan. I suggested he can come
help you, and then I made fun of him for
being in prison, and you know, he changed his life.
His mom messaged me and so she said that it's
a big day for him. He's graduating, he's getting his license.
He's finally today is the last day for school to
be a plumber. So I didn't want to like crap

(36:58):
all over him and not give him a shout out that.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
You wanted a guy without a license to come to
my house and do some plumbing.

Speaker 4 (37:04):
Yeah, he's still a good plumber. He's still a good.

Speaker 1 (37:06):
Plumber's come to my house. He's apice right now.

Speaker 7 (37:08):
Yeah, okay, yeah, but he's really good. So he's my friend.
You know, he does all my plumber cart gratulation. Yeah yeah, Bill, Bill,
I'll tell him where you live.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
No, don't you don't want to know. I love him. Yeah,
he just finished school. Congratulations. A big deal for me
handling the pipe.
