Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, Hi there, Detroit Wheels. Hi.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I'm calling because I'm supposed to have a podcast with
Doug Putt Allen. This is a number that he gave
you to call.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
Judge John Chamira from the City of Warren. It is
great to talk.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
To you too.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
How was your day at the office today? Was Did
you have to throw anybody in the slammer or anything
like that?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Not today, Dougs. All times I have to do that,
but today is actually not too bad of a day.
This is my jury week and all the jury trials settled,
so I have some extra time to work on the parade.
So that's kind of a good thing. So nobody went
to jail today.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Okay, Well that's great, Okay, positive thinking. Well, I do
have to say it's an honor to be a part
of this big birthday bash coming up in the City
of Warren, also the Polish Day parade. You guys came
to me and asked me to be the you know,
the Grand Marshal. But not only that, I do want
(00:57):
to thank you for just an incredible memorable moment in
my life when we did the roast.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
That was an incredible moment, and we thank you for
being a part of it. And I have to say
that this was just one of the best roasts that
we've ever had, maybe the best, and you made it possible.
And well, we're just glad to have you on board.
We really are.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Well, we had a great panel.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
And then you know, when Ted Nugent shows up, right,
you know, it's off the charts at that point, you know.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
But I didn't know he was going to be there.
I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
I did not either. That's that Terry bogus Man.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah, but that that cousin of mine who did it.
And I'm still mad at him for not telling me
about that, and I'm never gonna let him forget it
though it was probably a good idea.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Yeah, well they kept it. They kept it a great secret.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
But yourself did, and Terry and your entire crew and
and really the whole Polish Congress need to be uh,
you know, thanked and honored for what you're doing right
now for the Polish Day Parade and the City of Warren.
Tell me a little bit about what we can expect
(02:11):
on parade day, Judge, Well.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
We can expect, first and foremost, a parade. The parade
steps off at four to ten and we assemble at
the Cousino High School parking lot, and it will go
down Common Road, which is right next to the parking lot,
west to City Hall and march right in front of
the reviewing stand in front of City Hall, where you
(02:37):
will be up on stage with me along with the
Mayor as we call out the units. And that's what
we could expect during the day, at least on that day.
And it's gonna be a lot of fun. Parades are
always a lot of fun, and we're looking forward to this.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, for sure. It's always
a lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
But this one's kind of special because I am Polish
and this is a special day for them. The evening
portion will be will be as as special I would imagine,
with all the great bands, including Mega Eighties and right,
I guess we're gonna have what food trucks and a carnival.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Too, Right, so carnival rides, food trucks, importantly a beer tent.
We don't want to forget that. Yeah, and then Mega
Eighties and then Magic Bus I believe is playing correct, Doug.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Oh, okay, there you go.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Yeah, they're great, they do, you know, like all the
great sixties and seventies songs.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So I love those songs though. Those are the songs
that I grew up with, which tells you how old
I am. Sixties and seventies. And maybe they'll play Magic Bus,
one of my favs.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Well, I think they do. As a matter of fact,
well they should.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
They should, because that's a great song, just one of
the great songs that to who put together. And I
hope I hear it.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Now, how many years has this parade I'd been tied
to the Birthday bash here at the City of Warren.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
This is the third year that has been tied with
the Birthday Bash. We moved it here not too long ago,
well really after the coronavirus pandemic. After we took a
little bit of a break, and so we're doing number three.
We hope to stay here for a long time down
the road.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Now, the history of the Polish Day Parade really started
in ham Trammick, did it not, Well.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Actually, way before that, Doug. The history began in the
nineteen thirties, That's when it first started.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
And it was called the Pulaski Day Parade back then,
and it was Undelisle, and no one really seems to
know exactly when it started back then, but around that
period of time, and then it really kind of moved
around from there. It was on Jefferson for a period
of time, way before you and I were around, and
(04:58):
then it did come to ham Traffick for many many
years before it came here. So that's a very brief
history of it.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Well, you know, certainly, I would imagine the city of
Warren has got to be pretty proud of the fact
that they've chosen Warren to be a part of their parade.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
And who would that be now?
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Is that the Polish Congress that you've been you know,
telling me so much about over this past year or so.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yes, The way it works, Doug, is like this. There's
a national group called the Polish American Congress. That's an
umbrella group consisting of different Polish organizations, many of which
are members of the Polish American Congress, and that was
formed not too long after World War Two when there
were a lot of immigrants here and they kind of
(05:48):
needed an organization where the people of Polish descent could
work together and help each other with different types of
problems they might have had, you know, coming over here
from and they didn't speak the language, it was a
different culture and so forth. So that group again is
called the Polish American Congress. Now Michigan has its own
(06:09):
chapter called the Polish American Congress Michigan Division, and they
did do the same thing that the Polish American Congress does,
but focus on Michigan issues. The Polish Day Parade is
a committee of the Polish American Congress Michigan Division, and
I'm the lucky guy they is chairman of that committee. Yes,
(06:32):
And I'm appointed by the presidents of the Polish American
Congress Michigan Division, Jolantahal and Kevitch to run the parade
with the committee that you're familiar with, And that's what
we do. That's kind of how it's all set up.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
So when you asked me to be a part of
this and talked about doing the roast, we had just
come off of an incredible roast with Vinnie Dabrowski for Sponge.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah, And I was very impressed with everything that went
on the venue too. The Polish Entry Club, right, I
mean that place is second to none. It's a beautiful facility,
but the food and the people there are just fantastic.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Yeah, yeah, they really are. They We've been working with
them for a long time now, and you know, I'm
a member there, a lot of our committee members I
think are members there as well, and they just do it,
like you said, a fantastic job. They work with us
and you make it all happen. And you know, it's
important to know because they're part of the Polish American Committee,
(07:40):
so they have every reason to make it happen because
whatever success we have with the parade reflects on them,
and they participate in the parade, they'll have a unit
in so you know, we all kind of work together
on this. You know, we're different organizations but part of
the same Polish American family. So that's why they work
(08:01):
with us and do such a good job, because they
have every reason to do it.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
I don't think people really realize the amount of work
and the amount of hours that goes into putting an
event like this together. I mean, it really takes up
almost most of the year, does it not.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Yeah, it does it does, you know. And that's why
I'm glad my jury trials settled this week, so it
be the time that I need to get this thing
on because it's a busy week, and I'm sure you
know a parade week, but yeah, we're busy pretty much
year round. We meet once a month starting in January.
We take a little bit of time off after the
(08:42):
parade is done, just because we need a breather. So
once Saturday is done, we'll kind of catch our breasts
a little bit and relax. I know, I'm gonna have
a lot of beers that night at the wart hogs Booth,
and then we'll have a year event, the end of
year party, to kind of congratulate ourselves, and then January
we'll be right back at it doing the twenty twenty
(09:05):
five parade.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
And you'll start thinking about and I know, we had
breakfast together and we talked a little bit about who
will be the next person to be roasted. And I
don't know that we've come up with a definitive answer
yet or.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Have we No, we have not. We've got some ideas
that we're kicking around. I just made a phone call
yesterday and we're working on some people. So we don't
know yet, but we hope to have that nail down
within a couple of months, because, as you know, Doug,
we did it with you. You know, by this time
a year ago, we already knew it was going to
be you, and that made it so much easier for
(09:43):
us because they's just one thing that we didn't have
to worry about. And we want to get that nailed
down as quickly as we can for next year because
I don't have to think about it going into the holidays.
I want that question decided so that I could focus
on other things.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Well, there are so many great answers to this, and
so many of them came out to the Polish Entry
Club during the roast, and uh, I'm sure that a
lot of them will be apart and be there for
the parade as well. So uh, you know, a tip
of the cap to them for not only supporting it,
but also putting their money where their mouth is.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
And uh and put and putting this thing together.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
So yeah, but you know what, that that goes back
to you, Doug, because so many of these people did
this because they knew you were going to be there,
and they knew you were going to put together a
fantastic group of roasters and mc uh and people wanted
to see that. So we tip our half to you
that that wouldn't have happened had you not agreed to
(10:42):
help out and then use some of your contacts. So, uh,
kudos to you.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Well, uh, judge, I was very honored, very honored to
be asked. I mean, I was surprised. Vinnie called me
and he said, yeah, come on down for breakfast, Doug.
You know, we want to talk to you a little bit.
And I'm thinking, what do they want to talk to
me about? You know, little did I know?
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Isn't it always a little bit scary when you get
a phone call that says we want to talk to you?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Yeah, little did I know?
Speaker 3 (11:13):
And you know that thing could have that thing when
Ted Nugent walked in, that could have went south, you know, but.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
It went north. It went north big time.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I'll never forget that, dog. I will never forget that.
When he came in there, because I know we had
talked about the possibility of him coming in and it
was never definitively answered, and kind of the sense that
I got that it wasn't going to happen because he
was out of town, right, I thought, yes, and there
he is, and everybody's jaw dropped and we had some
(11:44):
pictures taken and he waited a lot of good things
to say, didn't he.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Yeah he did.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
He was great and his wife Samaine was great, and
Terry was great too. Not only did he hold the secret,
but he kept telling me, Yeah, we've got a video
that we're going to show, right, So I'm looking around,
I'm looking around the room, going where where are they
going to show this video? You know? And yeah, and
then midway through, you know, Ted just comes storming through
(12:10):
the kitchen and you got to know it's great food
when he asks for not one, but two carry out packages.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
So yeah, we had to put a care package together
for him and his wife to take out, which so
we were glad to do. But yeah, he walked out
with at least two heavy bags, which which was great.
I mean, that was wonderful. Maybe he'll come back one day,
who knows.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Who knows, Maybe we'll maybe we'll roast Ted one day.
How great would that?
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Man? Oh my god, can you imagine that what the
roasters would be? Oh, they're going for a week, probably.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
Yeah, you could, you could do it for a week.
So this this birthday bash of the City of Warren
is starting Thursday and it goes through Sunday. So you've
got the carnival going on. You've got bands, you've got
food trucks. When does it all kick off? Thursday? And
what is the time of the parade exactly?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
The parade is four to ten on Saturday. Now I
think it ends Saturday night. I don't know that it
goes to Sunday, Okay, but you're right. It starts Thursday,
and it's those three days and great times four ten
at Cousino, Okay.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
So it starts there and then people can just gather
over at the City of Warren building and you'll find
all the rides and the food, and then the rock
and roll will be kicking out the yep as well.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
That's exactly right. Take and or they can go down
Common Road. You can set up We'll have some bleachers
on Common Road and then there's a median there that
separates Common the two streets on either side, one going east,
one going west. So you could sit in the bleachers
to watch the parade, or you can just bring your
own portable seat and sit down or stand if you want.
(13:57):
But anywhere down Common Road is a good place to
see the parade. Or like you said at the birthday bash,
in front of City Hall, you can camp out there
and watch it. That's where most of the people will be.
But we'll get a lot on common role too. It's
a little shady area there and that's a good spot
as well.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Well, the City of Warren Birthday bash legendary in itself,
but the Polish Day Parade there is such a incredible
history to it, right and I'm just so proud to
be the Grand Marshal this year. I can't thank you enough, Judge,
and I'm looking forward to it myself this Saturday. You
and I will be up on stage kicking out some
(14:37):
classic rock up there. So I'm excited and I hope
I did a good job. I hope I do a
good job.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
You will.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
I've been practicing my waving all week.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
So.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Yeah, that's a big part of it. Though. You're gonna
do a great job. You know how to do it.
I'm hoping I can do a job, a good job
with you up. There's going to be a little bit
intimidating with a guy of your statue there, but you know,
I'll do my best, and I'm I'm sure sure you'll
correct me and say no, that's not the way you say,
(15:11):
just do it a different way. You don't really do.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
I'm not I'm not messing with a judge. I can
tell you that right now.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I'm to do.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
I never I never talked back to judges, few a
few policemen, and it's got me in trouble and in
front of a judge.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
So I'm not gonna go there.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
So, uh, Judge John Tomorrow, thank you so much, thanks

Birthday Bash and the Polish Day Parade and it all
kicks off on Thursday.

know a parade week, but yeah, we're busy pretty much
year round. We meet once a month starting in January.
We take a little bit of time off after the
(08:42):
parade is done, just because we need a breather. So
once Saturday is done, we'll kind of catch our breasts
a little bit and relax. I know, I'm gonna have
a lot of beers that night at the wart hogs Booth,
and then we'll have a year event, the end of
year party, to kind of congratulate ourselves, and then January
we'll be right back at it doing the twenty twenty
(09:05):
five parade.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
And you'll start thinking about and I know, we had
breakfast together and we talked a little bit about who
will be the next person to be roasted. And I
don't know that we've come up with a definitive answer
yet or.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Have we No, we have not. We've got some ideas
that we're kicking around. I just made a phone call
yesterday and we're working on some people. So we don't
know yet, but we hope to have that nail down
within a couple of months, because, as you know, Doug,
we did it with you. You know, by this time
a year ago, we already knew it was going to
be you, and that made it so much easier for
(09:43):
us because they's just one thing that we didn't have
to worry about. And we want to get that nailed
down as quickly as we can for next year because
I don't have to think about it going into the holidays.
I want that question decided so that I could focus
on other things.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Well, there are so many great answers to this, and
so many of them came out to the Polish Entry
Club during the roast, and uh, I'm sure that a
lot of them will be apart and be there for
the parade as well. So uh, you know, a tip
of the cap to them for not only supporting it,
but also putting their money where their mouth is.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
And uh and put and putting this thing together.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
So yeah, but you know what, that that goes back
to you, Doug, because so many of these people did
this because they knew you were going to be there,
and they knew you were going to put together a
fantastic group of roasters and mc uh and people wanted
to see that. So we tip our half to you
that that wouldn't have happened had you not agreed to
(10:42):
help out and then use some of your contacts. So, uh,
kudos to you.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Well, uh, judge, I was very honored, very honored to
be asked. I mean, I was surprised. Vinnie called me
and he said, yeah, come on down for breakfast, Doug.
You know, we want to talk to you a little bit.
And I'm thinking, what do they want to talk to
me about? You know, little did I know?
Speaker 2 (11:07):
Isn't it always a little bit scary when you get
a phone call that says we want to talk to you?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Yeah, little did I know?
Speaker 3 (11:13):
And you know that thing could have that thing when
Ted Nugent walked in, that could have went south, you know, but.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
It went north. It went north big time.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
I'll never forget that, dog. I will never forget that.
When he came in there, because I know we had
talked about the possibility of him coming in and it
was never definitively answered, and kind of the sense that
I got that it wasn't going to happen because he
was out of town, right, I thought, yes, and there
he is, and everybody's jaw dropped and we had some
(11:44):
pictures taken and he waited a lot of good things
to say, didn't he.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Yeah he did.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
He was great and his wife Samaine was great, and
Terry was great too. Not only did he hold the secret,
but he kept telling me, Yeah, we've got a video
that we're going to show, right, So I'm looking around,
I'm looking around the room, going where where are they
going to show this video? You know? And yeah, and
then midway through, you know, Ted just comes storming through
(12:10):
the kitchen and you got to know it's great food
when he asks for not one, but two carry out packages.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
So yeah, we had to put a care package together
for him and his wife to take out, which so
we were glad to do. But yeah, he walked out
with at least two heavy bags, which which was great.
I mean, that was wonderful. Maybe he'll come back one day,
who knows.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Who knows, Maybe we'll maybe we'll roast Ted one day.
How great would that?
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Man? Oh my god, can you imagine that what the
roasters would be? Oh, they're going for a week, probably.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
Yeah, you could, you could do it for a week.
So this this birthday bash of the City of Warren
is starting Thursday and it goes through Sunday. So you've
got the carnival going on. You've got bands, you've got
food trucks. When does it all kick off? Thursday? And
what is the time of the parade exactly?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
The parade is four to ten on Saturday. Now I
think it ends Saturday night. I don't know that it
goes to Sunday, Okay, but you're right. It starts Thursday,
and it's those three days and great times four ten
at Cousino, Okay.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
So it starts there and then people can just gather
over at the City of Warren building and you'll find
all the rides and the food, and then the rock
and roll will be kicking out the yep as well.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
That's exactly right. Take and or they can go down
Common Road. You can set up We'll have some bleachers
on Common Road and then there's a median there that
separates Common the two streets on either side, one going east,
one going west. So you could sit in the bleachers
to watch the parade, or you can just bring your
own portable seat and sit down or stand if you want.
(13:57):
But anywhere down Common Road is a good place to
see the parade. Or like you said at the birthday bash,
in front of City Hall, you can camp out there
and watch it. That's where most of the people will be.
But we'll get a lot on common role too. It's
a little shady area there and that's a good spot
as well.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Well, the City of Warren Birthday bash legendary in itself,
but the Polish Day Parade there is such a incredible
history to it, right and I'm just so proud to
be the Grand Marshal this year. I can't thank you enough, Judge,
and I'm looking forward to it myself this Saturday. You
and I will be up on stage kicking out some
(14:37):
classic rock up there. So I'm excited and I hope
I did a good job. I hope I do a
good job.

do a great job. You know how to do it.
I'm hoping I can do a job, a good job
with you up. There's going to be a little bit
intimidating with a guy of your statue there, but you know,
I'll do my best, and I'm I'm sure sure you'll
correct me and say no, that's not the way you say,
(15:11):
just do it a different way. You don't really do.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
I'm not I'm not messing with a judge. I can
tell you that right now.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
I'm to do.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
I never I never talked back to judges, few a
few policemen, and it's got me in trouble and in
front of a judge.
