Speaker 1 (00:02):
It's the best Avillian Lisa in the Morning.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hey guys, Happy Saturday. Welcome into the Top five Moments
of the Week. It's producer Riley from Billy and Lisa
in the Morning.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
It's finally springtime.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
The weather is doing some crazy you know, New England
springtime things. But because of the changing of the weather,
we are having something return after like seventeen years.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Billy's going to break it down for you.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
The cicadas.

Speaker 4 (00:25):
Something is story and it is not alone in this
mail and thousands of others have spent seventeen years deep underground.
They are called periodical cicadas. Yeah, and each is on

(00:47):
a critical mission to secure the next generation.

Speaker 5 (00:52):
Yeah, here's the deal. And by the way, that's the
voice of Tom Hanks. If you haven't seen The Americas,
which is an incredible series. He's narrated by Tom Hank,
you really got to check it out. But one episode,
or at least one segment was dedicated to the cicada.
And the Cicada's basically come out of the ground after
seventeen years and leave their seed and die.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Yeah, they're coming to the Cape and to southeastern Massachusetts
this month and June. It's like a four to six
week time period, and they just make so much noise,
and they're saying, watch your pets, because if your pets
eat too many of them, it can really cause a
six stomach.

Speaker 6 (01:30):
It's not a good thing. The cicadas are not a
good thing.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Well, they're not harmful to humans, so that's good. They're
just more of an annoyance sound. But they're going to
come out and then they transform, which was shown in
the Americas. The transformation of these things.

Speaker 4 (01:45):
Unrail breaking free from the husk of his old body,
he unfools new winds and his adult form is revealed
around him. The others changed too, shedding ahead of the

(02:11):
next stage.

Speaker 7 (02:12):
Of the mission.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Okay, all they do think about this sounds so sinister.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
Seventeen years in the earth, okay, and they come out
after seventeen years, have sex and die.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Yep, hey wait seventeen years.

Speaker 5 (02:29):
Yeah, yeah, that's a serious backup.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Yeah, then they die.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah, it's overwhelming.

Speaker 6 (02:36):
All they want to do is leave the seeds so
the next generation.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Can be born.

Speaker 8 (02:40):
Yeah, seventeen years, seventeen years, Lisa, don't you say it.

Speaker 6 (02:45):
Don't you say because.

Speaker 8 (02:46):
When you say it, then it makes it real and
I'm already ready to just buy fy a torch and
just burn them all, burn all the ones I see,
my God that or I am just I'm going to
into a tunnel.

Speaker 6 (03:01):
I'm going to make a doomsday.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Capsule, and I'm hiding down there until they're all gone.
It's very biblical, weird mission.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
Again, they're not powerful to human They're very annoying.

Speaker 9 (03:17):
It might seem a beautiful day in the neighborhood, yeah,
but the human residents wake to an audio onslaught.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
The volume can exceed ninety six degrees. You know, there's
like a rock concert in your front yard with cicadas
on vocals.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Okay, oh, is that their mating call? Like the sound?

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Possibly it's part of the whole.

Speaker 6 (03:51):
Yeah, well they'll hook up.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, it's the show.

Speaker 6 (03:54):
And then they just hook up and die. Sara, good
morning from Amesbury. How you doing.

Speaker 10 (04:00):
I'm doing great, Thank you, thanks for taking my call.
So yeah, so I'm French. I go my have relatives
in France.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
All over and.

Speaker 10 (04:10):
They basically are almost like good luck, a national insect
to them. I don't know if it's all the rest
of Europe, but all I know is just because I
go to France ques it, especially in the province area.

Speaker 5 (04:23):
All.

Speaker 10 (04:25):
Yes, they basically that noise that we're hearing, communicating amongst themselves,
but mostly to tell it all of us of how
extremely extremely hot it's going to be. So when you
hear that noise, especially and they only you only hear
them in the summertime, around the time that we're going

(04:46):
to have like the temperatures up into the nineties or
the hundreds, and people actually purchase them, like they're sold everywhere,
and people will purchase you know, the little wooden gadgets
to hang in their home, like how people have seagull
of them, stuff like that around, so they're not considered
bad right in heads and things.

Speaker 6 (05:06):
Like that in France. Is it every seventeen years too.

Speaker 10 (05:10):
No, not at all, not at all. So this is
very interesting that it's over here in the States like this.
I have to be honest with you, I haven't heard
them much living here for close to thirty years. But
I found that very interesting too, that you just brought
that up, because they do. So if you when you

(05:30):
hear that noise, you can be conscientious it must be
really really really hot outside.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
Well, Sarah, thank you so much.

Speaker 6 (05:36):
An expert on cicadas, and by the way, Viva la France.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
It has to do with the tree cycle. That's what
I just looked up. Maybe that's different because we have
different trees here.

Speaker 3 (05:48):
Yeah. Yeah, Also cicadas come out every year. These are
periodical cicadas, right, Ah, there's a different breede. Yeah yeah,
So these have been living underground for seventeen years.

Speaker 6 (05:58):
Are they edible?

Speaker 3 (06:00):
I'm sure you can eat any problem. I'm sure you
could eat them and that. In other cultures they eat bugs.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
The grasshopper you did?

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Was it good?

Speaker 1 (06:10):
It was in Actually it was in Mexico.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
Were you that hungry?

Speaker 1 (06:13):
No, it was It's like a delicacy and they yeah, yeah,
they were spicy.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
I'm sure they were really interesting. Well, Charlie Pooth eats ants.
Remember this, I eat airis him and Calvin Harris.

Speaker 6 (06:27):
Calvin Harris answers.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
Calvin Harris eats ants, and he got Charlie Pooth to
eat ants. He told the story. We talked about it.

Speaker 6 (06:32):
I eat airis yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:34):
Wow. Yeah, welcome to the Welcome to the cicadas.

Speaker 6 (06:38):
Hey, it's me Soada.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
Who is the cicada's favorite musical performer?

Speaker 6 (06:47):
Perry?

Speaker 2 (06:50):
I think a lot of us are having one thought
right now and it's kind of what's going on with
the Celtics. Hey, it's producer Riley from Billy and Lisa
in the Morning counting down the top five moments of
the week with you. We're at number four now, and
when we have Celtics questions, we got to reach out
to our good friend Dan Shaughnessy.

Speaker 5 (07:05):
So Lisa Dunovan and I were both at a gala
together last night. It was Raising a Reader, which the
money for raising a reader from your book club goes
to the right.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Yeah, we raise money for them at every book club.

Speaker 5 (07:17):
And it was called Dinner with an Author, and I
was there as an author because Jenny Johnson and I
have a cookbook, A Taste of Boston.

Speaker 6 (07:25):
So I had a table of people and we were
all enjoying the gala.

Speaker 5 (07:28):
Lisa was an award d She received an award last night,
and I got to tell you something. Lisa was amazing.
She delivered a perfect speech.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
It was moving.

Speaker 6 (07:38):
I was crying, Okay, fine.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
That's very sweet. Really literally was yeah.

Speaker 6 (07:43):
And I'm sitting next to her dad.

Speaker 5 (07:44):
It was like humiliate, Oh God, I'm like, really pull
yourself together. But then I got up and walked over
to the bar or some other area and I ran
into Dan Shaughnessy, who we used to have on the
show all the time, and we got to talk and
he said, oh my god, you guys sound great. We
love the show. Can you have me back on the show?
And I said, of course we can.

Speaker 6 (08:06):
I'm so excited to hear from our guy, Dan Shaughnessy.

Speaker 11 (08:10):
I feel like we haven't heard from him in so long,
and he's so fun.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Dan, a ray of sunshine.

Speaker 12 (08:15):
Those people are morons, the knitwitch in the stands, everybody
else sucks. He's a knucklehead. We don't like him. I
know you call me for the sunshine. I'm giving it
to you.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
And Dan Shaughnessy's showing the love right there. And Arias
on the Billy and Lisa Morning Show, Dan, welcome back.

Speaker 12 (08:30):
Well I miss you guys, and it's really nice to
be back. And it was great to see you at
last night. Lisa, great speech with your award and nothing's changed.
All these years have been gone, because you're still playing
this really hit music that I listened to every morning.
And the lead in for me this morning was calmed
down by Selena Gomez and Rima, which is perfectly appropriate

(08:51):
for Celtics fans.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
How you did that? I know it is. Yeah, Celtics fans,
you gotta calm down.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
Ah okay, Dan, you're the ex for what went wrong?

Speaker 6 (09:01):
What happened to the South?

Speaker 3 (09:03):
They're oh and too well.

Speaker 12 (09:05):
I'm not panicking. I still think they're gonna win the
series because you know me, I'm always a glass half
full kind of guy. And you know, don't don't beat
the press here. They're better than the next. They beat
them eight out of nine times over the last two years,
regularly by a lot of points. They averaged sixteen point
three points per game to beat them easily every time.
This year come into the playoffs, twenty point leads two
games at home, blew them both. Jason Tatum came up small,

(09:28):
Joe Mizoula not his finest hours. They got to pick
it up and win in New York tomorrow afternoon.

Speaker 5 (09:32):
Yeah, Joe Mizoula seems to be sitting on his hands
when it's time to call a time out.

Speaker 12 (09:37):
Correct, Joe is very stubborn. He's intransigent. He does what
Joe thinks is right, and it's worked pretty well. They
won the championship last year, and he's kind of got
this mystique about him, and you know, he does a
lot of offbeat things, and he's a very confident young guy.
But he's getting he's getting crushed. He's getting the Grady
Little treatment all around town. Now that this is his fault.
He's getting out coached in this match. So players believe

(10:00):
in him. Let's see if they can back him up tomorrow.

Speaker 6 (10:02):
Boy, A little Grady Little reference there took us.

Speaker 12 (10:05):
Back there references.

Speaker 5 (10:06):
Okay, okay, So now there's a weird story this morning
saying that the Knicks are enjoying divine intervention because three
or four of the guys on the Knicks are from Villanova,
and so was Pope Leo.

Speaker 12 (10:21):
You know, we're all digging into our archives about Villanova.

Speaker 13 (10:24):
Thing.

Speaker 12 (10:24):
Now, I did the same thing. I just looked up
last night. I covered Holy Cross at Villanova in nineteen
seventy three, and I'm figuring the Pope was there, because
you know, this was it was a big game, five
thousand people, Wildcat Stadium. He would have been a sophomore.
I was a senior, and I was in the presence
of the Pope. We're all saying that. But you know
what's worse, Billy, I'm older than the Pope.

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Oh you are, Dad?

Speaker 11 (10:49):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (10:50):
Wow, And I thought I thought it was pretty cool
last night that you and I were both there as authors.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
Winnie, be quiet.

Speaker 12 (10:59):
That's a great I've been doing that for years, always
a lot of fun and just you know, it's a
tremendous cause. It was great to hear Lisa up there
supporting the cause. So I know you guys always do it,
but yeah, raising the reader get out there every year.
Next year they'll do it again in May.

Speaker 5 (11:12):
So your predictions for this Celtics Knicks series? What are
you thinking? We're down two zooms.

Speaker 12 (11:17):
I'm saying Celtics and seven. This cannot end this early there.
I thought they were going to win the championship all
along Repete or year. I know there's a lot of
great teams. Oklahoma City's playing great out West, and Indianapolis
is playing great in the East. Who knows, but I
still think Boston has the best team. I just can't
believe it's going to go away this quickly on him,
I mean, second round series. Yeah, they've only lost two

(11:39):
in a row twice three times all year and they
just did it at home in the playoffs, so I
see him right in the ship tomorrow.

Speaker 6 (11:45):
Hey, what a Game seven happen in Boston?

Speaker 3 (11:48):
Correct?

Speaker 12 (11:49):
Ooh wow, Yes, that would be Game five would be
in Boston on next Wednesday, and Game seven would be Monday,
the nineteenth of May at eight o'clock.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
Well, Monday night. That's hard going to say.

Speaker 5 (12:00):
Let's call our connection over there the Treaty Guarden for
a Game seven. I might be willing to go quickly, Dan.
How about the Red Sox? Should we be excited? I mean,
they won yesterday.

Speaker 10 (12:14):
You know.

Speaker 12 (12:14):
I'm half full of them too, which is unusual for me.
I like what they did in the offseason. They're spending
money again. This Alex Bregman. I'm telling you you're going
to love this guy. He's really stepped up. He's doing
what he's paid to do. There's a little bit of
a bleep show over there right now because Rafael Devis
doesn't want to play first base, which is a very
old school Red Sox kind of position, which is the
players aren't being teen guys and all this stuff. So

(12:34):
people are angry about that. That'll sort itself out. They've
underachieved it'll get better. They're on a rough road trip
right now, so it might take a while. But I
think by the time the Celtics are cooked and done,
the Red Sox should be rolling.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
And I think Devers should be fine at first base.

Speaker 6 (12:49):
I didn't.

Speaker 5 (12:49):
I don't think they saw the Castes thing happening though
out for the season.

Speaker 12 (12:53):
No, And he's mad because they took away a third
base and gave it to Bregman, and then they asked
him to DH. Now they're asking them to play first base.

Speaker 10 (12:58):
Too bad.

Speaker 12 (12:59):
He's got his mind and be a team guy. He's
athletic enough to do the job. He's only twenty eight
years old. He's a good hitter, he's a good young guy.
I think he'll see the light of this one of
these days.

Speaker 5 (13:09):
So you don't do what the team needs you to do.
Come on, be a player, be a team guy exactly.
Hey Dan, great to have you back, buddy.

Speaker 12 (13:17):
So good to be back. My adult daughters are going
to be so excited. I'll be walking around all the
women everywhere on the show again.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
We missed you.

Speaker 12 (13:25):
Yeah, everywhere I go, and we'll do you guys have
a cult following.

Speaker 5 (13:28):
You know what, We're gonna have to get you a
billion Lisa Morning Show hoodie that you can wear around
your daughters would be very impressed.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
In case you missed it, the real ID deadline was
on Wednesday. Hey, it's producer Riley from Billy and Lisa
in the Morning counting down the top five moments of
the week with you. We're already at number three and
Billy and Lisa have been procrastinating getting that real ID,
so they had some questions.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
Let's get into it.

Speaker 5 (13:49):
Apparently getting a real ID is not that easy, especially
now with the crunch. Everybody's trying to get it at
the same time. So there are lines, there are.

Speaker 6 (13:57):
Delays, and there are probably going to be delays.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
At the airport, right are saying that, Right, So if
you don't have a real ID, even if you have
a passport, you're still going to wait longer.

Speaker 6 (14:05):
That's what they're saying.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
They're not going to turn you away. But yeah, this
is this just this seems really problematic.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Yeah, I expect you can expect delays.

Speaker 14 (14:14):
You can expect to be delayed, and the length of
the delay will be determined by the number of people
who also aren't prepared for real I D Enforcement Also,
you can expect additional screening and you risk being turned
away from the security checkpoint if you cannot confirm you
are who you say you are.

Speaker 5 (14:31):
Yeah, and if you're turned away from the security checkpoint,
that means you have to you're delayed even further. You
may still get on board a flight, but it's going
to be even more security.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
So if you go with a regular license and you
don't have your passport today, they're still going to let
you on the flight.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
They might, but it'll be a long or a delay.
You'll have to get out of a line, get back
into a line, and get into another line. It's it's
it's very you know, we're coming up on topic time
in a couple of minutes.

Speaker 6 (14:55):
I want to hear from a lot of people.

Speaker 5 (14:56):
A who has the real ID, who has not gotten
the real life ID, and more importantly, anybody who was
at the airport this morning and wants to call in
and tell us what it's like over there.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
I'm interested to find out what type of paperwork you
need at the d m B.

Speaker 15 (15:12):
Yeah, that's another one, right, you definitely need like a bill,
and I think you need your Social Security But I
hope someone will Okay.

Speaker 3 (15:18):
I don't think so. I don't think it's the Social
Security I think there's other forms because I got mine
and I don't. I don't even know where my I
have no idea what.

Speaker 5 (15:25):
I haven't seen my Social Security card physically since grade school.

Speaker 15 (15:30):
It was something annoying because my dad went and got
turned away because he didn't have the right stuff.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
That's my mother.

Speaker 15 (15:35):
My mother garden ready, she goes, you need this, this,
and this, and he had to go like Fall River
because nothing was available up this way, goes to fall River.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
They turned on why he didn't have what he needed.
He drove to the south coast to Florida.

Speaker 15 (15:46):
I mean yeah, because up here, I mean everything was
all the things were taken.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
But like you said, there is a list of other
forms of ID that you can fly like what.

Speaker 14 (15:57):
It's everything from military ID, slitary dependent IDs, passports, passport cards,
those Trusted Traveler cards if you're a trusted traveler with
the Department of Homeland Security, Tribal IDs from federally recognized tribes.
The list goes on and on. Lawful permanent resident cards
work as well.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
Don't do you have that.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
I have a Global Entry card.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
That would work Yeah, you're good.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
I have global entry.

Speaker 5 (16:22):
You don't have that bill a tribal id global entry
if you're a Portuguese tribe.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
I'm not aware of global entry global entry. No I don't.

Speaker 5 (16:33):
Isn't that the thing you have to go in and
sit down for an interview and then you always get it.
Look down on the people who are not in the
global entry line.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Honestly, I have to tell you global entry is great.
It's great if you if you can, you know, make
your way through the process.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
Wave at them, shame. Look like that car wash a
line you know.

Speaker 6 (16:53):
Oh you don't have a membership to the car wash.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
How you doing? I'm a VIP. All right, the phone's
blowing up here. Let's go to Kate real quick online one. Kate,
what do you have for us? It's the real ID deadline? Baby?

Speaker 16 (17:05):
Hi everybody, good morning. Well I was just calling to
give you guys some info that Triple A allows you
to get the real ID. You can do it a
little bit more, I guess if you have a Triple
A account.

Speaker 17 (17:17):
Yeah, however, I got.

Speaker 16 (17:19):
My real ID from there, and I still have to
bring my passport to logan because every time we go away,
especially with my family and my kids. I get stuff
and stuck at security because a hologram wasn't printed correctly.
Because every time I go they have, the manager for
TSA comes over and he's like, oh, did you get
this at Triple A? I said, yeah, it was easier
to get the real ID and they said yeah. Unfortunately,

(17:40):
however they printed it's been a problem.

Speaker 5 (17:42):
Oh oh, so you're saying the scholars if you're getting
the real idea at Triple A, you're saying it won't work.

Speaker 16 (17:50):
Uh, well, at least mine hasn't. In The manager at
PSA said that they've had some issues with it because
my kids are always like, why are we stopped? Because
we also have TSA pre check and that's my kids.

Speaker 11 (18:01):
In the back. Oh hi, yeah, it's always an issue.

Speaker 16 (18:07):
So I want to let your collegs know that that
might they still might have to bring their passport, which
is a pain.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
Well what what paperwork did you bring to Triple A?

Speaker 10 (18:16):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (18:16):
God?

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Uh?

Speaker 16 (18:18):
Basically should have just gave my kids to them because
I hadn't needed my what did I mean, my Social Security,
my wedding certificate? Uh, to proof of where we live? Yeah,
it was it was insane. I had to bring a
whole folder there. It's all on the stupid website website,

(18:38):
but a lot.

Speaker 5 (18:41):
Probably easier to just come in through Texas.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
That's a hot tip, though. You can go to Triple.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
A, but then doesn't work well.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
I love Triple A paper.

Speaker 18 (18:57):
You are from Triple A? Are you a you know
A A oh a hey, I just came for me
el aa aa. Yeah that's what I said. So you
al was tripley Oh no, that's aaa. I just came
from me A huhtey.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
I think it's just a drunk.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
I think we set a new record with this one.
Hey guys, it's producer Riley from Billy and Lisa in
the Morning, counting down the top five moments of the
week with you. We're just talking about how the deadline
for the Real ID was on Wednesday. Billy and Lisa
procrastinated a little bit too much and had a ton
of questions we needed answers to, and our callers and
talkbackers came through.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
It's number two.

Speaker 5 (19:31):
Laurie, Good morning, your thoughts on the real ID go
Good morning.

Speaker 19 (19:36):
I'm sorry. I have a really hard time feeling bad
for people that don't have the Real idea. By now,
we've had so many years to prepare for this. I
know it's so easy to do. If you're waiting until
the last minute, you have nobody to blame but yourself.

Speaker 6 (19:50):
Okay, Laurie, are you yelling at me because I don't have.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
A real I don't have one either.

Speaker 6 (19:55):
Lisa doesn't have one. I don't have one.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
Can I can you walk us through though, because you
said it was EA. Can you walk us through exactly
what you brought to the R and D.

Speaker 19 (20:04):
I brought a copy of my I brought my social
Security cards, my passport, and a household bill that had
my name on it in my address.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
What if you don't have a Social Security card.

Speaker 19 (20:19):
Well, there's plenty of other options on I mean, the
list is pretty extensive, and there's a whole bunch of
things that you can bring. But this was this was coming,
you know, a few years after nine to eleven, right,
I mean they said by this by this time, this
is what was going to be required and how to
do it. I mean, it honestly couldn't have been any simpler,

(20:40):
and we've had many many years to do it.

Speaker 6 (20:43):
Shame, Laurie.

Speaker 3 (20:47):
I am loving you, Laurie. And I love your attitude.

Speaker 5 (20:49):
You're you're sounding slightly caronish.

Speaker 19 (20:54):
I'm sorry about that.

Speaker 5 (20:58):
No, that's a good call, Laurie, because you're giving us
all the answers we wanted. And you're right, most of us,
including us, have been procrastinating on this real ID.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
Yeah, she's right.

Speaker 19 (21:07):
I don't know if people thought, if people thought maybe
it was going to just go away, I did. I
don't know, but I've had mine for almost seven years.

Speaker 6 (21:17):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Wow a flex.

Speaker 15 (21:20):
Okay, I didn't know anything about it. I didn't have a
license when this was a conversation.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
It has been She's right there. It's been going on
for a long time. And then I just kept pushing
it back and pushing it back.

Speaker 6 (21:32):
We could have gotten a real D seventy years. Yeah,
this really news, very new to me.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
She was right about everything.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
All right, let's go to Jared and Framingham. Jared, please
don't yell at us.

Speaker 20 (21:45):
I'm not going to yell at you all. But I
have to agree with Laurie Marie over there, because well, listen,
I happened to work in customer service, and I will
say this, there's nothing worse than seeing a long line.
Those of us on the receipt end of it. We
don't want to be dealing with long lines either. We
would love to be able to facilitate a very seamless experience. However,

(22:08):
to Laurie's points, you know, they have been billboards all
in and around the city and or past the city,
up and down the map Pike. I mean, for those
of us that you know at least aren't living under
a rock and get out. Occasionally there have been mailings,
there have been advertisements, there have been you know, I

(22:29):
know a lot of the differentocal news media have been
offering some insights as it is coming so little little
funny to see that people are losing.

Speaker 5 (22:38):
Okay, you want to hear something very ironic that just
hit me though. It's called the real ID, right, but
it never really felt real to us until now.

Speaker 20 (22:53):
True, very true, But I will. I do want to
address the Triple A thing, because I did go to
Triple A to get mine, and I think that maybe
that previous caller was a one off because I came
no problem. I've internationally a few times yeah yeah, and
that was not the case for me. I'm not sure
how TSA has that ability to kind of make.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
That poor lazy, We love are Triple A is the best.

Speaker 20 (23:14):
Yeah, absolutely, yeah, assistance is the best and their twenty
four to seven capabilities and their life save All.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
Right, Well, thank you Ront, that was Ron. Thank you.
Now let's go back to Laurie's.

Speaker 11 (23:26):
Had seven years.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
Okay, that fascinates to me.

Speaker 6 (23:31):
I mean, I know I've procrastinated. I mean I keep
thinking it came out like two or three months ago.

Speaker 20 (23:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:37):
A lot of people are are getting all worked up
about this.

Speaker 19 (23:39):
For all those procrastinators out there, including my.

Speaker 20 (23:43):
Husband, it sucks to talk.

Speaker 19 (23:45):
Should have done it a.

Speaker 20 (23:46):
Long time ago.

Speaker 6 (23:47):
Oh boys, now she's yelling at her husband through us.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
Yeah, hot take.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
I don't feel bad for anyone that has not gotten
the real idea yet.

Speaker 20 (23:56):
You've had at least five years.

Speaker 12 (23:58):
This was supposed to.

Speaker 19 (23:59):
Happen in twenty and then.

Speaker 20 (24:00):
They pushed it because of COVID.

Speaker 19 (24:03):
I just don't understand how.

Speaker 11 (24:04):
People are like, I don't have a real idea.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
It's like, what have you been doing for the last
five plus years. I'd love to know what the percentage
of people that have one versus don't have one. I
would love to know what that statistic.

Speaker 15 (24:15):
Let's take a pull this is well In this was
between the four of us. No one here, just twenty
five percent. Justin is the only four of us.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
I have the star. Okay, I've had mine.

Speaker 19 (24:25):
You had mine for almost seven years?

Speaker 3 (24:26):
Will you sing in there a little bit? Wait, let's
go to Tana online five. She was at the DMV yesterday.

Speaker 5 (24:32):
Let's okay, Tana, you were there at the DMV yesterday.

Speaker 6 (24:34):
What happened?

Speaker 3 (24:35):
How to go?

Speaker 20 (24:37):
Hi?

Speaker 18 (24:38):
Well, it went.

Speaker 17 (24:38):
Smooth for me. I actually had to make an appointment
about a month and a half ago and I went
up to North Atoms.

Speaker 1 (24:47):
You have to go all the way up there.

Speaker 20 (24:49):
Yes, yes they did, but they don't even.

Speaker 6 (24:52):
Have cars in North Adams. Like what do you have
to pick up a horse and buggy?

Speaker 1 (24:56):
Beautiful out there?

Speaker 3 (24:57):
It is?

Speaker 17 (24:57):
Yeah, like that, Well you have to have do you
have to have coins for the parking meters coins?

Speaker 20 (25:05):
Yep?

Speaker 17 (25:06):
So you need your you need your Social Security card
that I don't have one certificate. You need your marriage
certificate because especially if you're a woman and you've changed
your name, they need to be able to track that.
You need to bills or a bank statements that are
current within the last sixty days.

Speaker 5 (25:28):
Yeah, I got to tell you something, Okay, you I
mean you could hold me hostage in a dungeon and
I couldn't find my marriage certificate.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
Anywhere, nor, by the way, could I.

Speaker 5 (25:40):
Find my Social Security I don't have mine anymore.

Speaker 17 (25:46):
Yeah, I don't, you know, necessarily know how I did it,
but I have a file that I've had for a
couple of years.

Speaker 6 (25:54):
Wow.

Speaker 17 (25:54):
I don't think that they've really been talking about the real.

Speaker 20 (25:57):
Idea within like the last year.

Speaker 17 (26:00):
And unless you've had something to go in and change
your driver's license on, you're not gonna that's not the
top of your list of things to do in your life,
you know.

Speaker 3 (26:10):
Yeah. Yeah, people are getting so worked up about this. God, Larie,
she was she needs a hul.

Speaker 19 (26:16):
Needs a huw.

Speaker 6 (26:19):
It's official.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
There is going to be a Real Housewives of Rhode Island. Hey,
it's producer Riley from Billy.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
And Lisa in the Morning.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
We're already at the number one moment and we're super
excited about this show because there might actually be a
familiar face for us.

Speaker 5 (26:32):
We saw this coming with the Real Housewives. It's coming
to Rhode Island. It is, and we had a sense
it would come to Rhode Island.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
We heard things a year ago. We have friends Rich
Tomory and his beautiful like wife Rosie Woods.

Speaker 6 (26:47):
Yeah, who used to work here by the way, both
of them.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Yeah, And so there was like this like rumor going
around that Rosie was cast on the show. And then
I reached out to your Rich and he's like, I
don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (27:00):
He did the same to me. Oh yeah, he probably
can't talk about it.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
Yeah, but this was like almost this is a while ago.

Speaker 6 (27:07):
Okay, we're family.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
Shame on him if he can't talk about it and
he doesn't talk about it with us.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
But maybe they couldn't.

Speaker 15 (27:13):
Is this when they got married so quick because she
needed to be a wife because they got married pretty quick.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
It is called the Real Housewives of Rhode Island.

Speaker 13 (27:20):
Hey, guys, Lindsay from Rhode Island here. I just wanted
to weigh in on Rosie Woods. She was a traffic
reporter for NBC ten in Rhode Island for a couple
of years and then she mysteriously left. There has been
no talk as to whatever happened to her, but I
do believe she's going to be on the Housewives along

(27:43):
with somebody from my high school.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
So is Rich lying to us? I talked to him
this morning and he just said, I'm not involved in
that period, although these shows he probably signed an NBA. Yeah,
I can't talk.

Speaker 6 (28:00):
If Rich is saying I'm not involved, he's involved.

Speaker 15 (28:02):
Yeah, Oh my god, I can't wait for like the introduction,
she's married to a Frank Sinatra.

Speaker 11 (28:07):
Want to be don't.

Speaker 5 (28:09):
That's a good friend of ours family.

Speaker 3 (28:13):
He thinks one of the most talented people I've ever
I don't really know him compared to you.

Speaker 6 (28:17):
Guys I've never worked.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I love Rich. He's the best.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
Yeah, really, and he's a very talented. Yes, he's a
Sinatra singer. He does Coppo every Sunday. And here's what
I love about Rich.

Speaker 6 (28:27):
He really believes he is Sinatra.

Speaker 3 (28:30):
He does. That's why he's so good.

Speaker 6 (28:33):
By the way, Sinatra Sundays a coppo in South Boston. Yeah,
you got to check it.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
It sells out every week.

Speaker 6 (28:38):
Sinatra Sunday is a Coppo.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
Well, if this is true, congratulations to Rosi because I
think that's so cool and Frank power couple.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
Yeah, I think I think. I mean, I don't really
know Rosie that well, but I think Rich would be
good on it totally.

Speaker 6 (28:51):
They'll probably called him Rich and Rosie.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah. I would not be where I am today without
Rich for sure.

Speaker 6 (28:58):
Well he had your chair before you.

Speaker 3 (29:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
Well he did some of the most famous little jingles
for us.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
All the mashups. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (29:06):
Oh, really good ones too, like the bus tour and Salem.
Oh that's hilarious, the.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Fitness camp, Oh, Gronk cruise. Yeah. Well, Rich has a
great he can sing, he can sing. Yeah, let me
see if I what I have here for that. I
gotta I gotta dig it up.

Speaker 5 (29:28):
Well, you know, it's funny while you're digging it up.
You know if I did, like, you know, a wine
night or something or an event. Early on, Rich was
our intern and I would have him come and sing
a couple of songs at the event.

Speaker 6 (29:40):
And then it grew into Rich being Frank Sinatra.

Speaker 5 (29:44):
And I mean he's booked solid for events and you know,
parties and weddings and Copper Sundays, and he's constantly booked. Yeah,
ladies and gentlemen, welcome to your tour of Salem, Massachusetts.

You've got what it takes, you doubt it's time to
learn from the King Billy Costa.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
Step one, demand attention when I walk in.

Speaker 5 (30:40):
There's a level of professionalism that just kind of takes
over and literally overwhelms.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
By the way that that quote said to me. That
was a cand of mic that Billy said to me
on my first day.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
Sure.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
Step two scam, scam scam.

Speaker 5 (30:58):

Speaker 3 (31:50):
Oh god. So we'll fall up on this and see
if he's going to be on the Real Housewives of
Rhode Island.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
I'm gonna call him if anyone can get it out
of the wretch, all.

Speaker 3 (31:58):
Right, I'll get it out of him.

Speaker 5 (31:59):
Imagine if our talking about it this morning gets inmbooted
from the show because.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
They have very strict rule. They really no, he did
not do anything wrong. We asked him, he said, I
am not involved. Does did they meet on this show?

Speaker 10 (32:14):
They met here, So we said.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
That here and then reconnected years later.

Speaker 3 (32:19):
Yeah, typically we don't talk about the housewive shows that much.

Speaker 6 (32:23):
On this show, I always vowed to never mention.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
Well, there was a little incident, yeah, a couple of
years ago with one of them, Teresa Judaice and Billy Costa.
If you remember that, she kind of snapped at Billy
during an interview.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
But we've had Countess Luan on.

Speaker 3 (32:36):
Countess gets gets to pass. Yes, love her, but not Teresa.

Speaker 5 (32:40):
She's So, Teresa, we know you spent some time in prison,
but you came out of prison and wrote a book,
a best seller, about your time in prison. And did
it focus a lot on the food in prison?

Speaker 11 (32:53):
I really don't want to talk about that. That we're
talking about to a parent. That is going to happen
this Saturday. Okay, they're going to ask us questions. The
audience are going to get to know us a little
bit better.

Speaker 16 (33:04):
You have some good laughs and have a.

Speaker 11 (33:06):
Good time, and it's all about being positive, right, not negative.
You should learn some of that. Yeah, you should. I
have a podcast called Mama Say Bitches. You should listen
to it and learn how to be a little bit more.
Namo say, yeah, the most miserable person on Earth, Namastay,
are you kidding me?

Speaker 3 (33:25):
Talk about irony?

Speaker 6 (33:28):
She was the original Jordan Hudson. Oh, we're not talking
about this. Bailly's taking shots.

Speaker 3 (33:34):
Yeah, that was really shocking because she had talked about
it on other shows, other podcasts, and you were talking it.
It was a fine question.

Speaker 6 (33:42):
She went to the can and I made it positive.

Speaker 3 (33:44):
Dude.

Speaker 5 (33:45):
The book is about her time in prison, and she's
not talking about her time.

Speaker 15 (33:50):
You were promoting the book about the present time, and.

Speaker 6 (33:53):
I said, you turned it into a positive thing, a bestseller.

Speaker 3 (33:56):
Yeah, that's basically you're Jordan Hudson version. Yeah. Anyway, Bill,
I'm say well.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
That's gonna do it.
