Amazing, unbelievable.
Speaker 8 (03:12):
I tried to make it for the Christmas lighting on Saturday,
but I couldn't because I had the house thing. But
I went there on Sunday. The way they set that
spot up, now that place is a city within a city,
and it's.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
And that hotel is top notch. Ye not the holiday.
I would I would have gone home.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
Well, he didn't book the holiday and he booked the
hotel there and then, but I do like the customer
service is so important. And did you hear that they're
putting them up for a Valentine's to day? So that's
amazing at a nice hotel though, right, perfect, But basically
they were saying it was a mistake on there, and
so now they're putting that's nice.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
That's nice.
Speaker 7 (03:45):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Nay is in Revere?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Nay?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Hello?
Speaker 1 (03:49):
How are you? What happened at the company holiday dinner?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Let's get I'm so worry, guys.
Speaker 9 (03:55):
I have to go in the morning and explain all
this and I.
Speaker 7 (03:57):
Don't know how what happened.
Speaker 9 (04:00):
We were at Lalita's for our holiday dinner and we
have like a minimum that we normally waste.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
So my boss was like, I'm a little drunk.
Speaker 9 (04:08):
I want to go home. We're going to end this.
But I was like, can we just like stick around
and I promise we won't pass the limit, we won't
get reckless. But yeah, one of the office managers, she
broke all the shot glasses. We reached four thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
And yeah, what was the limit that he gave you
two thousand? Him me, Oh, you're getting fired. Oh my god,
I know.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
I did.
Speaker 9 (04:33):
At the server. I was like, can you please tell
me when we're like getting there.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Nope, no, Oh my god.
Speaker 9 (04:40):
So you're driving in at the end of the night
because she broke the glasses.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
We're all getting kicked out of establishments. Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Well listen, what I need is for you to follow
up and tell us how your boss handles. Because maybe
your boss is just going to be happy it's the
Christmas season and let it go. Or you guys are
all going to be getting money taken out of your paychecks.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
It's one or the other.
Speaker 9 (05:02):
I mean, I just want my bonus at the end
of the year, like, this is not my fault.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Hey, we'll see Nay, keep us posted, babe, Good luck,
Thank you, welcome. We've all had a holiday party that's
gotten a little too aggressive.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I've seen a lot of we don't have them anymore.
They must must be nice. That is a lot of damage.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
But also if the limit was two thousand and you
blew past that to four, that that's my kind of party.
Speaker 8 (05:25):
But it also depends on what type of company it
is a company that can afford an extra two thousand
bucks and it's not an issue.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Hopefully for her, it's not an issue. If they haven't
that low leita, then it should be. Like I'm just
trying to vision how it would be to have a
company party. That sounds so sick.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Six one seven nine three one one nine four five. Hi, everybody,
good morning. We're talking about you, your life, your world with.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
The check him this up.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Hi, everybody, Good morning. Sashly the Jay of Morning show.
Hope everybody is doing good. I lost my voice.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Friday night, so I'm on the recovery. But we have
this little rasp thing happening. It sounds Oh thanks. Let's
talk to Adriana. Adriana's in t and Hi Babe, good morning.
Speaker 9 (06:07):
Hi, good morning.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
So is this a story from a while ago or is.
Speaker 9 (06:12):
This currently So I got married in January of twenty three,
so this is like a year ago.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
Okay, So a year ago you're on your honeymoon with
your husband.
Speaker 9 (06:23):
Yeah, So we were leaving Bermuda to Bermuda out of
New York.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
By the way, let's stop to ad a second.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Bermuda is the most amazing place on the planet. It's yeah,
I've been many a time. I have Bermuda and me
it's the quickest flight out of Logan to Paradise.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So if you're thinking about anywhere, go to Bermuda, but
go on.
Speaker 9 (06:41):
Well, for sure, next time, I'm definitely just taking a
flight right there. I won't cruise there in January at
least ever again. Yeah, no, I don't know where I
was when the memo was being cast around that you
don't go on the Atlantic January, because we definitely we
got stuck in sixteen foot swells. They had to call
the National Guard. It was the worst honeymoon ever.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Oh my god.
Speaker 9 (07:04):
Yeah, we're so married, so that's good. He booked a
hotel in New York for just a couple of nights
because we wanted to make sure we were there in
case there was snow that we would get on the
boat in time. So he booked a holiday inn in
New York. It was really close to the city. We thought, okay,
it'll be it'll be good. It's cheap enough. We get
(07:24):
there and oh my gosh, Ashley, it was like the
Saw movie. That's the best way I could describe it.
And that's completely accurate.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
I know all you have to do is say the
Saw movie, and I picture just a torture room with
tons of blood and Jigsaw like hanging out behind the
that's literally minus the like the Saw and all that.
Speaker 9 (07:45):
It's like the room was so close to what you
see in the movie. It was. We walked in there,
going down the hallway, there's just bags of black trash bags,
so there's trashed in the hallway. We get to the
door and it's not like a hotel door, it's a
turnkey door. Weird, never seen that at a holiday in.
(08:05):
And then the door didn't touch the floor, so like
walking up, we noticed like there was like three inches
between the door and the door, like anyone could just
literally look in our room. We get in and I
could touch one side of the room to the other
just putting my arms out. The radiator was buzzing, the
lights were flickering, they were stains, it was dirty. I
(08:27):
immediately told my husband we cannot stay here. We left,
didn't get refunded, and then we could not find a hotel.
So we were just going to go home and fly
in like in a couple of days before. But then
we drove by the hard Rock and I'm like, all right,
that looks good. So I booked a room there. But
then we get on the honeymoon and the we were
supposed to be in Bermuda for five days. We were
(08:49):
there for five hours and they kicked us off the
island and told us we had to get on the
ship immediately.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
There was just like a survive period.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Yeah, and you know what, after Jigsaw almost dying on
the on the boat, you guys, are you guys are
still holding strong?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
That's huge, That's very important.
Speaker 9 (09:06):
Yes, yes he did not end up overboard. But I
was like, I told you this is gonna happen. I
knew every reason.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
I had a got feeling.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
I'm like, I have a feeling this isn't going to
be It's a cruise. I just know it. And it
was awful.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
We almost need to like redo your honeymoon at some
point in life.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
That would be fun.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
You guys, go somewhere and you can protect Yeah, you
can just pretend no one needs to know.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
All right, babe, thanks for the call.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
I actually want to make this its own segment at
some time. We don't have to do it today, but
I want people to call us and tell us their
hotel horror stories because I bet we'll hear the funniest
just nasty.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Because some hotels out there are really bad hor Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Like there's a hotel without saying any names close by
that we stayed at, like the next week it got
busted for like a prostitution.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
The hotel isn't see any during our time it.
Speaker 8 (09:56):
Motel in it, don't stay there, or a.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Queue that oh man.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
All right, So Jermaine wants to talk about an initiative
called First Christmas.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Hi, Jermaine, Hey, good morning, Nashley. How are you doing.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
DJ tell us about.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
First Christmas because we don't know about it?
Speaker 9 (10:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
My partner Jeremy here he talk more about it. Good morning.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
So First Christmas. Uh, this is initiative.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
We started where we wanted to adopt the family, right
who's never had an opportunity to experience Christmas.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
When all of us think about our fondest memories is Kansas.
Speaker 7 (10:43):
You know it was good or bad? Right, it's it's
not experienced during Christmas. So we got together us and
the team elevated to elite, and we decided to put
our money together to use the community to find who
is most of need who's never experienced a Christmas or
over the last several years, due to whatever circumstances, haven't
been able to bring their kids or their families Christmas.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
This is where we came with the name First Christmas.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
And as we got started, we were sharing it up
with the world just to get a nomination of different
people so we can consider, and we just got an immediate,
you know, high level of engagement. We got nineteen families selected.
So as we were going through it, I mean these
stories are are did they were heartbreak. I mean the
first story itself hit the team. So we made the
(11:30):
decision to try to go out and actually get support
in the community, support to take so we.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Can take on more than one.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
And now we have four families to date that we're
going to be fully taken on and adopted and spoiling
to where we're decorating their house completely.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Buying the kids, the parents mostly everything on their waist list.
Speaker 7 (11:53):
And we've been able to get certain sponsors on board,
people to engage.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
So we have three ways that.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
People can actually support us on this and it's either
a you can we become a sponsor, which comes with
a whole bunch of perks, and just acknowledgment you can
donate right five dollars, ten dollars, twenty five hundred, or
you can buy a gift that's on the family's wishless.
So we created an Amazon wishless of each of the family.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Put a kind of cove compilsite together.
Speaker 7 (12:24):
So, yeah, it's been a phenomen Like yesterday was the
first family we started.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
We went to the house, we sent them away as
a woman and her child. They've actually never had.
Speaker 7 (12:36):
Their own place. They've been in the shelter for four years.
Finally got their first place last year, but they weren't
at the experienced Christmas right TV on the flour and
now you know they able to you know, we were
able to send them out and decorate the full house.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
So we're just getting started and this is phenomenoual. So
to get you all support or anyone else is going
to be to.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Be able to provide a family with the magic of
what Christmas is is like you're you're like, actually, if
you really think about it, gifting people magic and that's
that's a very beautiful thing. If anybody hopped in that halfway,
there was a lot of moving parts.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
I think it could be confusing.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Where can somebody go to read up on what you
guys are doing, what First Christmas is and how they
can help.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I love that. Yeah, so they get two places.

gotten a little too aggressive.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I've seen a lot of we don't have them anymore.
They must must be nice. That is a lot of damage.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
But also if the limit was two thousand and you
blew past that to four, that that's my kind of party.
Speaker 8 (05:25):
But it also depends on what type of company it
is a company that can afford an extra two thousand
bucks and it's not an issue.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Hopefully for her, it's not an issue. If they haven't
that low leita, then it should be. Like I'm just
trying to vision how it would be to have a
company party. That sounds so sick.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Six one seven nine three one one nine four five. Hi, everybody,
good morning. We're talking about you, your life, your world with.
Speaker 1 (05:46):

Speaker 4 (05:48):
Hi, everybody, Good morning. Sashly the Jay of Morning show.
Hope everybody is doing good. I lost my voice.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Friday night, so I'm on the recovery. But we have
this little rasp thing happening. It sounds Oh thanks. Let's
talk to Adriana. Adriana's in t and Hi Babe, good morning.
Speaker 9 (06:07):
Hi, good morning.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
So is this a story from a while ago or is.
Speaker 9 (06:12):
This currently So I got married in January of twenty three,
so this is like a year ago.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
Okay, So a year ago you're on your honeymoon with
your husband.
Speaker 9 (06:23):
Yeah, So we were leaving Bermuda to Bermuda out of
New York.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
By the way, let's stop to ad a second.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Bermuda is the most amazing place on the planet. It's yeah,
I've been many a time. I have Bermuda and me
it's the quickest flight out of Logan to Paradise.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So if you're thinking about anywhere, go to Bermuda, but
go on.
Speaker 9 (06:41):
Well, for sure, next time, I'm definitely just taking a
flight right there. I won't cruise there in January at
least ever again. Yeah, no, I don't know where I
was when the memo was being cast around that you
don't go on the Atlantic January, because we definitely we
got stuck in sixteen foot swells. They had to call
the National Guard. It was the worst honeymoon ever.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Oh my god.
Speaker 9 (07:04):
Yeah, we're so married, so that's good. He booked a
hotel in New York for just a couple of nights
because we wanted to make sure we were there in
case there was snow that we would get on the
boat in time. So he booked a holiday inn in
New York. It was really close to the city. We thought, okay,
it'll be it'll be good. It's cheap enough. We get
(07:24):
there and oh my gosh, Ashley, it was like the
Saw movie. That's the best way I could describe it.
And that's completely accurate.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
I know all you have to do is say the
Saw movie, and I picture just a torture room with
tons of blood and Jigsaw like hanging out behind the
that's literally minus the like the Saw and all that.
Speaker 9 (07:45):
It's like the room was so close to what you
see in the movie. It was. We walked in there,
going down the hallway, there's just bags of black trash bags,
so there's trashed in the hallway. We get to the
door and it's not like a hotel door, it's a
turnkey door. Weird, never seen that at a holiday in.
(08:05):
And then the door didn't touch the floor, so like
walking up, we noticed like there was like three inches
between the door and the door, like anyone could just
literally look in our room. We get in and I
could touch one side of the room to the other
just putting my arms out. The radiator was buzzing, the
lights were flickering, they were stains, it was dirty. I
(08:27):
immediately told my husband we cannot stay here. We left,
didn't get refunded, and then we could not find a hotel.
So we were just going to go home and fly
in like in a couple of days before. But then
we drove by the hard Rock and I'm like, all right,
that looks good. So I booked a room there. But
then we get on the honeymoon and the we were
supposed to be in Bermuda for five days. We were
(08:49):
there for five hours and they kicked us off the
island and told us we had to get on the
ship immediately.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
There was just like a survive period.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Yeah, and you know what, after Jigsaw almost dying on
the on the boat, you guys, are you guys are
still holding strong?
Speaker 1 (09:03):
That's huge, That's very important.
Speaker 9 (09:06):
Yes, yes he did not end up overboard. But I
was like, I told you this is gonna happen. I
knew every reason.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
I had a got feeling.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
I'm like, I have a feeling this isn't going to
be It's a cruise. I just know it. And it
was awful.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
We almost need to like redo your honeymoon at some
point in life.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
That would be fun.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
You guys, go somewhere and you can protect Yeah, you
can just pretend no one needs to know.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
All right, babe, thanks for the call.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
I actually want to make this its own segment at
some time. We don't have to do it today, but
I want people to call us and tell us their
hotel horror stories because I bet we'll hear the funniest
just nasty.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Because some hotels out there are really bad hor Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Like there's a hotel without saying any names close by
that we stayed at, like the next week it got
busted for like a prostitution.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
The hotel isn't see any during our time it.
Speaker 8 (09:56):
Motel in it, don't stay there, or a.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Queue that oh man.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
All right, So Jermaine wants to talk about an initiative
called First Christmas.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Hi, Jermaine, Hey, good morning, Nashley. How are you doing.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
DJ tell us about.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
First Christmas because we don't know about it?
Speaker 9 (10:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
My partner Jeremy here he talk more about it. Good morning.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
So First Christmas. Uh, this is initiative.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
We started where we wanted to adopt the family, right
who's never had an opportunity to experience Christmas.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
When all of us think about our fondest memories is Kansas.
Speaker 7 (10:43):
You know it was good or bad? Right, it's it's
not experienced during Christmas. So we got together us and
the team elevated to elite, and we decided to put
our money together to use the community to find who
is most of need who's never experienced a Christmas or
over the last several years, due to whatever circumstances, haven't
been able to bring their kids or their families Christmas.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
This is where we came with the name First Christmas.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
And as we got started, we were sharing it up
with the world just to get a nomination of different
people so we can consider, and we just got an immediate,
you know, high level of engagement. We got nineteen families selected.
So as we were going through it, I mean these
stories are are did they were heartbreak. I mean the
first story itself hit the team. So we made the
(11:30):
decision to try to go out and actually get support
in the community, support to take so we.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Can take on more than one.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
And now we have four families to date that we're
going to be fully taken on and adopted and spoiling
to where we're decorating their house completely.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Buying the kids, the parents mostly everything on their waist list.
Speaker 7 (11:53):
And we've been able to get certain sponsors on board,
people to engage.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
So we have three ways that.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
People can actually support us on this and it's either
a you can we become a sponsor, which comes with
a whole bunch of perks, and just acknowledgment you can
donate right five dollars, ten dollars, twenty five hundred, or
you can buy a gift that's on the family's wishless.
So we created an Amazon wishless of each of the family.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Put a kind of cove compilsite together.
Speaker 7 (12:24):
So, yeah, it's been a phenomen Like yesterday was the
first family we started.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
We went to the house, we sent them away as
a woman and her child. They've actually never had.
Speaker 7 (12:36):
Their own place. They've been in the shelter for four years.
Finally got their first place last year, but they weren't
at the experienced Christmas right TV on the flour and
now you know they able to you know, we were
able to send them out and decorate the full house.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
So we're just getting started and this is phenomenoual. So
to get you all support or anyone else is going
to be to.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Be able to provide a family with the magic of
what Christmas is is like you're you're like, actually, if
you really think about it, gifting people magic and that's
that's a very beautiful thing. If anybody hopped in that halfway,
there was a lot of moving parts.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
I think it could be confusing.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Where can somebody go to read up on what you
guys are doing, what First Christmas is and how they
can help.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I love that. Yeah, so they get two places.
