(00:41):
My son's in. My son's intoit right now. It's a good
movie. Yeah. Okay, Soif you've been a listener for a while,
you know that we had that wholething about we don't get paid for
the podcast. We didn't at first. Then we made like forty dollars one
year. Then the next year wedid. Okay, we made like a
considerable amount more, not not aton, like you know, a thousand
bucks or so. And then Imean it's not a lot, but it's
fun, it's pretty good. It'spretty good. So then this year we

(01:06):
were looking for maybe, you know, we we increased our listeners, so
we were thinking it was gonna bemore. But then nothing came. And
we were checking since January with thefinance guy, and our finance guy quit,
you know, he laughed, wehave a new guy, and so
it was a back and forth.In February March, it never ever came,
and finally they came to me andsaid, yeah, there's nothing,

(01:27):
and I go, how is thatpossible if it's like an ad revenue thing,
And he's like, the only thingI can think is that they just
got rid of that part of itand didn't tell anybody. I'm like,
that's good, that's good. Andthen, you know, we laughed about
it because you know, it's whatever. It's money, but it's not the
end of the world. And westarted this not making any money. They

(01:49):
added that in after a couple ofyears, so who cares. So yeah,
our boss just walked in before westarted recording and literally goes where a
balt to turn the MIC's on andgoes, hey, are you guys still
doing the after show podcast? Igo, yeah, we're about to recorder
right now. He goes, youdo it all last year? Yeah,
we did. He goes, youdidn't take any time off, none at

(02:09):
all. I go, no,we do it every day, four days
a week mostly. Well, wetry our best. But what last year?
We did it all year. We'venever really taken a long time off.
He goes, Wow, yeah,they got it all wrong. Apparently
you're supposed to get paid. Billyand Lisa in the Morning present a behind
the scenes look into Boston's favorite morningshow. That's a little too much information,

(02:31):
say, guys, the after showpodcast, here's Justin and winning.
Ain't that something? So he's goingto look into it and see what is
weird because he never tries to giveus money. I know, I know,
I know. I can't believe it. So that's pretty cool. You
know, that's pretty cool. Whateverit is, I'll take it right well,

(02:53):
you know it's you know, youcould thank me again for what I
did for you every time this comesup, Every time comes up, Justin
No, no, we have totell for people that didn't hear if they're
a new listener to the show.So when this happened last year, Justin

(03:13):
got a direct deposit with his checkthat was one thousand dollars more than usual,
correct, about eleven hundred bucks rightafter taxes. So all it said
on my paste of was it saidlike as M podcasts, right, something
like that. So Justin's like thinkingto himself, Oh, that must be
for the app show podcast right didwhen he get so, then he said

(03:34):
to me about this bonus thing.Now, he didn't say he got it.
He said, well, you're thebonus. I Oh, no,
I want to talk about I did. I did do the dope fiend move.
I feel I was feeling you out. I wasn't showing my hand right
right, So he was trying toHe's trying to see if I got a
bonus too. When I said no, he thought about it and he was
like, okay, either I gotboth of ours together, which means it's

(03:57):
going to take five hundred dollars fromme if if it's not correct, or
she's getting fucked anyways, and shedidn't get the money and someone else got
her money aka Bex because Beck washere before me. So he does some
investigation work. He hits the becksbehind my back, not behind my back,
but before he really dies and letsme know what's going on. Say,
hey, did you get extra money? And she says no, she

(04:17):
didn't, right, So he's likethinking, oh, no, I don't
want to say anything because then I'mgoing to get money taken away from me.
It was it was a little amoral dilemma, and I'd like to
say that I knew all along Iwas going to do the right thing.
So you end up bringing it tomy attention as well as Tony who's the
digital guy. Turns out Bes didend up getting the money, not saying
she lying, but she must notrear. I think she didn't look.

(04:39):
He didn't look. And if youknow Becks, she's little bit of an
airhead. So I love her,but a little bit of an airhead.
And so she they had to takethe money back from her and then give
it to me. And it waseleven hundred dollars that Justin got. So
we each got eleven hundred. Yeah, yeah, I know, I remember
talking, but it took me anextra month after you got it to get
it. Well. I remember Iwas talking to Jen, my wife,

(05:00):
and I explained in the situation,I go, listen, I have eleven
hundred dollars right now. If Isay something, it could go one of
two ways, meaning when he's supposedto get half of this and I only
get five point fifty, or thatsomeone else got Whinny's money and she's getting
screwed. And I was like,oh man, so uh yeah, I
was like what do I do?And Jen's like, is this a serious
question? You know, because itgoes back to all like living the right

(05:24):
way doing not hurting anybody. SoI knew all along, but I know
Jen got that back. I'm like, fucking Winny. But it turns out
that you actually just saved me andyou didn't have to get in look with
doing the right thing, you stillgot to keep the money. Yeah,
and it was your mood. Itwas your money, yeah, you know.
And you actually when when when Beck'sleft and we started doing the after
show, you and Tony got togetherand he was supposed to switch it.
Yeah. I mean I don't knowwhat happened then, but you know,

(05:46):
you made an effort to make surethat you were getting credit for it,
so it wasn't right. It allgot fixed. I think our after show
is a little better than yours.Oh really, don't you actually know what's
funny? I don't even remember,I would like I would like the g
army to let us know what versionof the pot no no, no shade
to back for lover. But Ithink ours a little better because she was

(06:08):
always running out of here to goto home to Jimmy. Yeah, are
you going to say it or not? Wondering are you going to say what
I asked you to say? Youknow, at the beginning of this whole
thing, you know, thank you, Justin, You're welcome. It goes
back. You know, it's sofunny too, is uh. You know,
this is again a recovery thing isabout, you know, because we're

(06:30):
sick people, people in recovery,you know, trying to get clean.
You're still sick, still sick.But one of the things that we're taught
is to do nice things for peopleand not ask for credit or do it
without them knowing. But that's onething Justin doesn't always apply to this man
always wants his credit. I mean, I like some credit sometimes. What's
better than me? Who's that's ajoke, that's a joke. It's like

(06:55):
it's like the people you know whatit is. And I know if you're
listening to this, you know thesepeople that they do something nice for somebody
and they have to post it onFacebook. I hate those people that they
give someone like homeless person food orsomething like that. Yeah, I tell
somebody, you know, people inthe lowest points of life, and one
to record it. One of myuh I'll give you an example of one
thing that really, you know,it warms my heart a little bit.

(07:17):
Okay. It's when somebody asked mefor tickets or say this is one example
for tickets, and I get themtickets to a show. I don't tell
anybody whatever, and then you know, they tell some somebody else, which
is you know, cool, andthen they come to me and they're like,
wow, that was really nice ofyou to do, you know,
And I'm like, yeah, it'snot about me telling everybody. I don't

(07:38):
want to go on face Facebook andbe like I got my mother in law
Janet Jackson tickets for her birthday,you know what I mean. It's just,
you know, do That's my goaland I don't. I fall short,
of course, is to like notlook for credit and things that I
do. But anyway, we're here. It is Wednesday tomorrow. No podcast
whinnie, I know, no podcaststhat Yeah, Uncle Bill called in some

(07:59):
reinforce for his food show. Soyou know, anything that Uncle Bill needs,
I'm there. So basically he hasyou know, he has a guest
coming in and he has He's waytoo busy, dude, He's got Gallas,
he's got a second TV show.So he asked me to do him
favor. So I'm gonna do that. But it's been a great week of
shows. I will say that we'vecovered a lot of ground, including the

(08:20):
Karen Reid trial. Today today wasone of the best days. I thought.
We got a ton of questions forCatherine Loftus so much so Winnie that
we're gonna we made his decision thatwe're gonna start bringing her in more often.
Yep, maybe not every time afterthis testimony, but as much as
we can, like tomorrow, thistestimony today, Tomorrow morning she has to

(08:43):
be in court for her job,but then this testimony tomorrow, so then
Friday morning she'll come back in.There were about fifty or sixty questions that
I did not get to. Itcouldn't get great easy. Yeah, and
people are like super investing the thing. We could do a whole like half
hour of just question just questions.Yeah. Yeah, And I love Katherine
because she not nots Sai. Shehas the answer to everything, but she's

(09:05):
covering the case. She's a lawyer, so she has it from that perspective,
and she's not biased one way orthe other. She's looking at it
like a lawyer. Yeah right,So I do like it. I like
the perspective it you get from talkingto her. I get to talk to
her off air too. My thingis, if we're going to should we
talk about the Karen readcase a littlebit. I feel like we can talk
about more here and not without restriction. Here's the thing. Can I be

(09:28):
honest with you? You're over it. I'm not not over it, but
you have to understand, Oh,your wife, it's every day, okay,
Like I'm gonna, for example,I'm gonna go home after this podcast,
and my daughter is in daycare,so she's just she's working from home,
but you know, she's in betweenmeetings and as soon as I get
home, it's going to start.Does she listen to Karen I'm not sure.

(09:50):
Oh yeah, she listens to whenshe's on our show. Yeah.
Yeah. I don't know if shefollows or she might, but she listens
when she's on the show. Yeah, yep. So that's why she wants
to talk about it. So,but I've been dealing for this way before.
I think you should be looking atthis as a positive thing that you
can connect with your white We do. We do means I don't want to
talk about it here. And youknow what, next time she brings it

(10:11):
up, be like, why don'tyou tell me about it? Why bend
you over? Oh okay, Wellthen we'll do it. And then she'll
be like okay, and then you'llbe hitting the cheeks and she'll be telling
you all about it. Well,how about this yesterday? Speaking of that
little situation, let me tell youwhat it's really like. So my house
is getting work done on it.Obviously it's under construction, and so I

(10:33):

him. She comes in the houseand my daughter's at daycare, and she
goes, hey, there's something onthe house. I want to show you
about the construction thing. Can youcome here and look? And I was
like I just sat down, likeright now, and she goes, fine,
never mind, and then she walkedback outside. Okay. So then

(10:56):
a couple of minutes goes by andshe walks back in to get something.
And when she walked back in,I had like thought and I'm like and
I said to him, Hey,I go You know you could entice me
to come outside. You should havesaw the look that she gave me.
It was like, shut the fuckup, you fucking piece of shit.
That's how I felt. Oh,come on, and she's asking me nicely.

(11:20):
No, I know it's not.It's my fault. I know sometimes
I get a little girl. Sois it really affecting your sex life?
Oh? No, oh the caarenhere? Yeah it was. It was
for real. Yeah, and yeah. I just knew when we went to
bed if the live stream was onbecause Turtle Boy, that motherfucker. And
I say that because he would streamat the same time every night, like

the phone was on and she wasa streaming, I was not getting in
there. Weren't you weren't streaming.I was not streaming. No, I
now, I just go to bed. So, but she's been involved in
it for since since day one.I remember her talking to me god like
so long ago about fucking crusty pantsand all these people have no idea what

so and then the daughters all havekids and they all live. It's
a very blended family that lives togethertogether. Amazing people like never heard anybody
they're all good kids, all goodpeople. So this neighbor across the street
of apparently hit Wow the landscaper's truckand so there was they've had problems with

(15:07):
landscaper's truck. So there was somekind of confrontation and they start. The
neighbor comes out and they start yellingat each other. Now this is caught
on ring camera. I have thefootage. You fucking do. Yeah,
dude, It's like it's not goodenough for radio because it's kind of in
the background. But long story short, this fucking psycho neighbor starts screaming at

my cousin, my cousin, herdaughter, Your fucking kid is fat.
The kid is like eight years old, seven no young, yes, seven
or eight. Your fucking kid isfat. I see him walking to the

to see what's going on. Turnon and uh, and then she started

(16:56):
calling her son a fat ass anda bad mother because he's overweight, and
then of course the whole family comesout. It's a big scene. I'll
show it to you there. Iwonder, can I play a little bit
of it? You can try?I can try. It's kind of hard
to hear. You can definitely hearthe obese part here. But how come
sometimes when I open a TikTok video, it doesn't go to that video.

(17:17):
Oh, I don't know. It'skind of annoying. Do you ever notice
that? Oh, it happens toyou too. So if I go to
open it's on TikTok, it's onTikTok. So let's let's see if we
can hear it here. So ifthey're in the background yelling, you can't
really hear anything yet, let mefast forward. It's hard to hear.
