Wake yo, oh man, Hi everybody, it's Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
I'm not going to mess that up.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Today, Wednesday in an hour, not even Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Five seconds, cheers for the weekend.
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
No, people like people love correcting me on it, and
they think it's a joke, but it's it's very serious.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Like what happens is.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
I, you know, I do the news, so I put
on the computer the date.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
That's usually what I do first.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
In the morning. I change the date on the screen.
And yesterday I'm watching the news and the woman messes
up the day of the week and I look at
aj and I laugh because obviously that's something that I
do quite often, and yet still did it. It's it's
we I don't know what goes on with my brain.
It's it's actual, a little bit spooky, but.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
I think it's funny. Though I like. I think it's
fun I think it's endearing. I think it's like a
normal thing.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Well at least you know we're here.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Yeah. I worked with a guy where something like that
would throw him off and he would be so mad
because he messed it up, and if the listeners started
getting involved, he would get psychotic.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
For him. One time we were this was last week.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
We were talking about Karen Reid and we went to
commercial after because I had put her in the news,
and I said to Santa, I'm like, oh god, I
just botched that. I just I didn't like the way
I delivered it. I felt like it wasn't easy, easy
to digest. I just hated the way I did it.
And Santi was like, it was fine. It was I
understood exactly what you meant whenever He's like, but if
(01:40):
you were this person, like his whole like he couldn't function,
He couldn't go on with the show.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
No, he There were so many times where he put
his headphones down, Mike's went off, and he's pacing her
on the room so mad over one little word, and
it drove him crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
I don't know how you could continue on that.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
When his entire day and then in the afternoon he
would call me for two hours complaining about that thing,
and then it would just spiral. It was like psychotic
that those were the times where I was going to work,
showing up at three am, getting everything I had to
do before the show done, and then driving around Boston
just to limit my time with this man.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Because you knew he would come into show, props would
lead yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
And then it was another time, and that's happened multiple times.
He couldn't handle the fact that, like, it wasn't going
well here, So in meetings they would tell him, listen,
it's not going well. You're not doing this right, not
doing that. He would break down, crying out, crying.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Oh, my family in this.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
And that, and I'd be like, what the hell is happening?
I need to get out of this.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
He's in radio now or he's gone, He's gone. He
probably for the best.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
It's probably for the best because he was one of
these guys who couldn't handle like getting coached, getting told
he was doing something wrong, and then if things weren't
going well, it just would spiral. But he also was
narcissistic in so many ways, and he would try to
do this to people, but the minute like you stood
up to him, he couldn't handle it well.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
And even more to eat.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Him and his coworker sometimes would fight so badly that
they wouldn't speak. So there would be times that they
would do the show on air and then as soon
as the mic mics return up, they would sit in silence.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Do you guys there was a story one of the
baseball teams were changing their names from the Indians to
the Guardians because a lot of the Native Americans were
offended at by the word Indians.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Right.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
So the girl was actually like being like, listen, I
guess I can understand if you're a Native American and
you don't want this negative thing tied on to it,
Like I guess I could like understand it. And then
he flipped out on her because she had no right
to talk about that because she's not Native American and
he had one tenth Native American. That was a blowout.
(03:40):
He walked to the I would have god, it was
like the first break. He walked to the back of
the station. He's flipping out. I had to go find them,
and I had to be like, listen, you gotta come
back on the air man like I'm.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
So sorry tenth Yeah, Like.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Why then he comes back, you start going at it again,
and then she goes, if you want tenth Native American,
I'm defending your people, and then I'm like, oh my god,
it was.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
That was that was I was gonna say. She wasn't
saying like get over it. She was saying, I can
understand it.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
And about that time got really bad because after that,
like every time the mics went off, you would leave
the studio and go hang out, and then he come
back when the mic was on. Then all of a
sudden it would be like feel good Friday, and you
do stupid things and I'm like, what is happening right
right now? Yeah, there are a.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Lot of psycho No, it's because it's it's our job
is so weird too, because people think that, you know,
you just come in here and you do it and
you say it.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
It's like all I do is work.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Through my mind of the things that I've said and
how I said it and how I could have said it,
and then I'll call Santi and be like, you know
how I said it, did it like this?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Maybe I should have done it like that.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
I mean, I'm not on the phone with you for
two hours, but I certainly do call and be like,
I don't know, I'm not sure.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
But you aren't bad at all. You aren't bad even close.
You're like just just normal. Because again, in this job,
it's easier to look back and like damn, I could
have done better at this and that. But we're live
and in the moment so hard, and it's easier to
go back and talk about this stuff, but man, for
it to ruin like your day, you don't do that
all them.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
No, Because I'm like, if I if I let that,
I say that the day wrong ruined the whole show,
we'd be in some trouble.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
And I was gonna say that happened twice a week.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
Yeah, And that's what he would do. And then he
would project on everybody else and like try to find blame,
and he would go at the girl all the time,
all the time. Then I had to stand up for her.
One time he was pissed at me, I defended her.
I stood up for her.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
And I'm just happy he's out of it because I
feel like his quality of life probably skyrocketed.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
If that's what it was doing to him.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
I don't know, man, I think he has deeper demons.
There was another time I do have to tell the story.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Keep having him out.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
He would disappear, I guess in the afternoon, and then
like all of a sudden, I'm getting calls from his
wife like where is he? Where is he? I'm like,
I don't know where he is, but I didn't know
where he was put it this way. He put me
in the middle of a domestic situation that I did
not want to be in, and I found myself lying
and and doing all these things and being in the
(06:08):
middle of like a very uncomfortable situation.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Damn, they live close in proximity to you.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
No, I lived in New hamp I mean I lived
in Pelham at the time, and they lived out by Framingham.
So why she because he was going place.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
No I know, but people. So she was like, I know,
you know why, and.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
She wanted me to tell her where he was where
I did not. I mean, listen, I'm going to back up,
like I mean, I'm gonna stick for the guys, like
when it comes down to the wife every day, I
don't know, I don't know where he is.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Are they still going strong? Wow?
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Yeah? And then okay, so another thing that happened. I
told the wrong person that all this stuff was happening,
and then it got back to them. But I think
they he had to have a conversation about like I
sent to somebody at work and then they got around
the building all of a sudden, like I guess I
wasn't supposed to say it. And then this other person.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
You think you weren't supposed to say.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
I thought this person knew, and then they didn't know.
It was a whole thing.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
So damn. Walther Stock a strong.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
They are good. Yeah. So anyways, that was the hell
of three years. That country one of two five.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Wow, I'm on it.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Yeah, what are they gonna do?
Speaker 3 (07:24):
