Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, okay, okay, Welcome into Election Day. It's the after
show podcast, The Billion Lisa after Show, justin Winnie and
yes it is election Day. And Winnie asked me on
the show this morning what the questions were in New
Hampshire and I didn't know, Yeah, because all I hear
about the mass questions obviously I live in Salem, New Hampshire.
So we just looked them up and there's really not much, right,
(00:20):
There's just.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
One if you live in New Hampshire, which I know
a lot of our listeners do.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
There only one question. It's actually a random one.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
It's about judges in their age limit right now, they
have to retire at seventy if you're in New Hampshire judge,
which I think is the same for Massachusetts, and it
would raise it to seventy five.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Is there a an age limit on the presidency.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
No, that's why we still have we have. We had
two eighty year old and now we have one eighty
year old running. Interesting but the thing is you have
to be thirty five to run, right, So there's an
age requirement, but it's on aged limit. Personally, I feel
like you can't you should not be able to run
past sixty five.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Because I think, yeah, I think I think so s
D maybe I would push it to seventy five is like,
I don't know, but everyone's different.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Everyone's everyone.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Okay, If you can get your Social Security at sixty
five or sixty six or whatever, sixty seven whatever it is, right,
that's retirement age. That's because you're winding down. You've put
forty years in the work for a force already. You
know it's time to have a break. And like, I
think there's plenty of people that are capable of working
into their seventies, but at a high level like that,
I don't think that's okay.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Can I just say though? Politics aside? Right, Donald Trump,
whether you like this isn't about liking him or hating him,
nothing like that. One thing that I am highly impressed
with is his energy at his age. The rallies that
he does. He does. He did four rallies yesterday, he
did the Joe Rogan podcast right three hours sit down interview.
(01:48):
Rogan said afterward he didn't use the bathroom before, he
didn't use the bathroom during three hours, he didn't use
the bathroom after he left, and then he flew to
do a rally at ten o'clock at night. It's pretty
impressive for his age. Bron I don't know, maybe we
don't know. I mean, that's crazy. And then you look
at President you know, Biden a couple of years older,
and obviously he started to decline mentally, So I mean
(02:08):
that could happen to Donald Trump too. But that's a
lot of energy for someone that age. It really is.
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Yeah, to me, it's not necessarily about your energy, because
I mean, I know people that are in their seventies that,
like my aunt, I have some aunts and uncles that like,
they work out and they're there they.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Speak for six hours in a day. You think, yeah,
I know.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
One of my uncles just retired from Quantico. Yeah, he's
seventy three, and that man is in.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Tip top shape. He works out every day. He's super healthy.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Very much in the mind, like does crossword puzzles whatever.
Him and my aunt are retired now obviously, and they
just they travel. They go see their kids and their
grandkids all over the country. And my uncle is with it.
And he who used to work in a very high
security area for Quantico, said that Donald Trump becoming president
would literally become a dictatorship because he has seen things
(02:59):
and he knows things that most of it aren't privy too,
that he can't discuss what it is.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yeah, I don't want to have a political discussion.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
I'm not. I'm just saying, yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I don't. Honestly, it's like you have to understand that
it doesn't really matter who wins. No, it really doesn't.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
I'm with you, like we're either way.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Bill Burr said it the best, and he did ops
run the posted that.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Because I was like, that is so fucking true, Like
it really doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
It really doesn't.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
We've been fucked like I've been fucked my whole twenties.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, it's it's a crazy, crazy thing crazy, And you
know what this is. It's not going to end tomorrow.
You know when it when or whenever it comes out,
it's going to keep on going. It's just never ending.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
No matter who wins, My rent will still be astronomical tomorrow,
you know what I mean. Yeah, and everything will still
The only thing that's been good lately is gas prices
gone down, Yeah, to like two seventy five, which is crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
I can't the last time I saw that.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Well, you know what I always say, where's the outrage
on skinners and addiction? Yeah, it's like, where's the outrage
on that? Those are things trump? Oh now, well, we
have a lot of other problembles which you should be
angry about. You know, that's just my thing.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Yeah, but like should should New Hampshire judges be seventy
five or not?
Speaker 1 (04:07):
A great thing? Yeah, I'll have you know what, I
have to have to think about that and vote.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
I know you don't have.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
It's so funny you have no say over the five
questions we've been talking about.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
I live in New Hampshire. Yeah, I know, although I
would vote no on five. Yeah, and the uber thing
I'm not sure on. I'm kind of split. I thought
it was a yes, me too.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I'm excited to go vote for the questions because definitely
no one five for me, and I might now do no.
When the uber drivers, I was going to do yes.
I was too, and I'm doing yes for the psychedelics,
I am too.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
I don't care about driving and listen, I'm in recovery. Yeah,
and I think it's it's really a lot of benefits.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
So when I don't remember is question one is that.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
The mcast is too right I'm going to vote on
to I can't.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Vote, but I'm voting.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
But I would vote yes yes on them.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Because my brother's a teacher and he was telling me,
I think it makes it easier for them to assess
each kid yes and not like the meeting a test
they might not be able to to graduate.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, yeah, I agree with that question.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Look at what it is.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
I don't even sure your question one is yeah, something stupid.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Well get out and vote.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
That's what question one?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Okay, you can look up question one? What about question ten?
What's it? There is no question?
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Question?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Then question said something about the state auditor or Audit
General Court.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
I don't fucking know what this means.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
See, and those are the ones you really have to
read into.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yes vote supports explicitly authorizing the state or audit the accounts, programs,
activities and functions of all departments, offices, commissions, institutions and
activities of the state Legislator and any authorities or districts
created by the state legisl A note opposes them auditing it.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Oh, go ahead, ut them.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I think Randy with who we had on last night
last week from Big Night, said it best. The issue
was a lot of people might vote and not understand
the question. Yes, you know, they go in they know
who they're voting for, like for president, right, they know
if they're Trump or Kamala Harris, right. But the questions
they don't know until they get in there and they're
like oh no, oh yes, and that can really hurt it,
(05:57):
you know, because they don't really understand what they're.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Especially the way the question five is written. It's like, oh,
on top of tips, but what you're not realizing is
you will you do not tip McDonald's workers. You might
tip the coffee perts and a dollar, yeah, but you're
not tipping someone, you know that's making fifteen dollars an hour.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Can I be honest with you when I this question
before we ever had the discussion on the air. When
I first heard the question was about giving servers more money,
my first thought was yeah, yeah, you know, and then
that's why we have these discussions. I was like, oh,
wait a minute, So it's a good thing. That a
good thing we had Randy on and Andy.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Husband being a server for so long, and it basically
supported me while I was here because this place, Jen
too did not do shit for me, right, I was
making every year all my thing. I made more money
serving than I did here. I for like three years
in a row, all my tax money, I made like
forty seven forty eight thousand dollars a year, right and
at about thirty of that came from serving.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
And that would not happen if they changed it. Because
I was hustling. I was making money.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I was tip well because I was a good server,
and people were you know, they were good tippers because
they they got like the food, they liked me whatever.
They decided that I was gonna what I was gonna make,
and I felt comfortable with that because I knew I
was a good server, you know, I know, I think
shitty servers are the one that want it that way.
Shitty servers that are lazy not to put it out
there like that. They want it like that because they're like, ohh,
(07:15):
I'll collect my little fifteen dollars an hour and do
shitty work.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Oh. It was a thing with Jen.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Jen was a really good server, too fantastic, And she
explained it to me. You know, there was I don't
know if it's like this in every restaurant, but they'd
have rotations, right, Yeah, customer comes in that goes to
Gen and they'd go in that rotation. But when it
got busy, servers that weren't that good would start getting
stressed out and they'd say skip me, skip me, and
Jen would say, I'll take it, I'll take it, I'll
(07:40):
take it, but we'll.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Give you an example.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
One year, one day I went into the restaurant. I
worked at the Marina, right, and everyone always wanted to
work outside because everyone wanted to eat outside. I actually,
on a busy weekend would be I wouldn't mind being
inside because those people just want to eat and you've
ben turn them quicker, right, So I would have half
the inside to myself because everyone was outside. They don't
three or four tables outside, right. I one time the
(08:02):
girl quit that as the shift started. We were the
two in the restaurant inside, so I was by myself
with just help from the managers. In four hours, I
made seven hundred dollars. Wow, And that was just me
fucking going. I had help with like the managers like
run my food and shit, but I fucking kill it.
Seven hundred dollars and four hours.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Yeah, that's a hustle. It is as if.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
You know what you fuck you're doing. You can make
really good money.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Yeah, and that will be affected if this passes. Question
five passes, it will likely be affected. I mean it'll
hurt the restaurants, but even the tipped workers people will
tip less.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
But this is going to go to like like you said,
and I don't like going to a restaurant and doing
the whole QR code. Like I went to a restaurant
in Connecticut that I really wanted to go to. It
was one of those esthetically pleasing ones I did in
review a while back on my instrument last year.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
I think it was like a year.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Ago, and I didn't know this. You ordered on the
QR code and someone just brought your food to you
and I hated it.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
So they got rid of the service. Yeah, they had food.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Runners, Yeah, and like you'd order everything.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And then I'm like, this isn't what I wanted, because like, oh,
we ran out of this, and I'm like, but you
didn't even ask me, you didn't come over to me,
But hey, you want to sub this out or whatever.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I wonder if that's going to be the future.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
I don't want that. I'll go to McDonald's and go home.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
There we go Chicken Big Mac. Haven't even tried. I know,
I haven't tried it yet.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
You know what, you know you don't need to do.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
I told you you have to get a mich chicken
plane at Mac Sauce fucking much better.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
That sounds good. That sounds good. Before we go, I
do want to say, okay about my Channel five piece
last night. So many messages, but I got Winnie. I
got a ton of messages from the people that watched it,
and they said to me, you know, love the piece,
very inspirational, all that. I'm an after show army member.
So many people thank you, Yeah, thank you for that.
(09:38):
And here's the thing, after show people they already kind
of knew all that stuff. Yeah, you know, like you
already knew all that about your Yeah. I mean we
make more of a joke about it, you know, but
because I can look back on it now and laugh. Yeah,
but yeah, it was. I thought it was a beautiful piece.
I thought you did a really good job. I did
not expect that. And the feedback has been really great,
(09:59):
So shout out to Well.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
I want to tell you I'm very proud of you.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Working next to you every day, I think I take
for granted, how far you've come, because like we talk
about it and I understand it, but I guess because
we're just we just go, you know, we're here going
through emotions together.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
I don't only stop and think how real that was
it for you?
Speaker 2 (10:16):
For me, it's just stories that you're just telling a story.
I forget you lived it right, you know what I mean.
So to watch that piece, which is so well done,
and even if you I know you, we you and
I have talked off air about, you know, your relationship
with Alex, your brother, how that was affected, and then
like certain things about your parents that like I know,
I don't know, I'm not gonna say, because I know
we've talked about on or off air. And to see
how far you've come in your relationship that you've rebuilt
(10:37):
with your family and then building your own family, you know,
and Jen too. I mean I love Jen obviously, I
know her personally and she's a badass bitch. And to
see both people come together to fight addiction and then
follow your dreams and become a couple where you raise
a family like this, where your children, God blessed, won't
have any of the issues that you.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Guys had growing up. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
But if they do, I know you guys would know
how to support them in it. But at the same time,
it's very inspirational and I take it for granted how
far you come.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Although I always say, oh, he's like great, I do
mean it.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Write this town. But I love you nice things.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
I love you. I'm proud of you, and I am
proud to work with you every day.

Yes, I learned from you personally and professionally all the time.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
November fifth, Yes, twenty twenty four, Winnie gave me a
compliment that's nice. Thank you very much. And you know,
I'll just say that we never planned any of this
to happen. We just did the right thing and things
just kind of happened. So if you haven't seen it
and go to wcvb's YouTube channel, there's two parts. Go
check it out. Let me know what you think, and
that will do it for us. Tomorrow is Wednesday. I
(11:41):
don't even know if we'll have any results on the election.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
I hope something.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Maybe we'll have something. Anyway, we'll keep you entertained and
keep you laughing. That's what we do at the election day.
Go vote
