Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's the best a Billy and Lisa in the morning.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hey, guys, good morning, Happy Saturday. Welcome into the best
of Billy and Lisa. It's pretty ser riley and I'm
going to be counting down the top five moments of
the week with you. Well, it's August and beach days
might be winding down a little bit, but there's still
time to be hitting the beach today. For example, the
weather's looking great, So you should just keep a couple
of things in mind when it comes to things you
probably should not do.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Hi, good morning.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
Oh my god, I'm a long time listener, first time caller.
I can't believe I got through.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
Well, welcome to the call. Welcome.

Speaker 5 (00:32):
Yeah, Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (00:34):
So I have a hilarious story from the weekend and
my husband still thinks I'm crazy because I'm talking about
it and it's still making me mad. But so we
were at the beach, and this beach is known for
carry in carry out your trash, so and of course
the siagules are crazy. So there was stuff on the beach.
You know, the family wasn't there. They must have been

(00:55):
in the water or something like that. So a seagull
is going crazy on there, you know take out bag.
There was a big paper bag full of you know,
take out trash and people were filming it. He was
like everything was like going down the beach. So I
get up, I get I like, pick up the stuff.
I show the seagull away and meanwhile the tide's coming

(01:16):
in as well, right, So so this family stuff, it's
like towels, bags the phones in it. So I pick
up the trash. I go to bring the trash back
to where I am. I'm sitting probably like ten feet
away and like they're A lady was behind me, and
I'm like, oh, you know, like it looks like she's
like coming to the stuff. So I bring the trash

(01:36):
back to my family. And this is like a pet peeve,
like the trash on the beach, Like that's initially why
I picked it up, because like it was rolling into
the water. It was terrible. So this lady, like I
figured she was saw the the stuff like close to
the tide coming in. So I was like, oh that's nice,
Like she's she's moving the stuff. I was gonna move

(01:56):
this stuff. Meanwhile she sees me picking up the trash.
Now as I sit back down because she moved the
stuff and then she walks away, but she comes back
and it turns out this was her stuff. So she
let me sit down with my with her bag of trash,
like and it was a big bag. It wasn't like
a little trash bag. It was like full up. Doesn't

(02:23):
doesn't say anything to me, like doesn't say oh, thank you,
like I'll take my trash, like yeah, oh, like you know,
you don't have to take it, you know what I mean,
and just sits there like watching me run down the
beach and pick up all the trash, doesn't chase after me.
It doesn't help, Like am I crazy? I just thought
that was just so rude, Like I don't know, it
definitely was rare.

Speaker 6 (02:43):
I thought you were gonna say she asked for her
trash back. She had a couple of clams left over.

Speaker 7 (02:49):
Well.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
So it's funny because initially I'm like, do I like
take it? You know, because like I feel like at first,
like I put it back there, but then like the
seagle came back as I was walking, I'm like, oh
my god, this freaking thing. So so I finally like
I picked up the rest of it. I'm like, I
don't know, I mean, I think they didn't want the
rest of it, even if it was a leftover plan,

(03:10):
because obviously the stagle runs through it. But I'm like,
she's actually watching me pick up this trash, and I'm like,
oh my god, like I have no issue.

Speaker 3 (03:19):
Can I ask you what beach was this?

Speaker 4 (03:22):
This was Long stands in York Beach, Maine trained. Yeah, yeah,
you don't say here. I am like and again, like
I do, I feel like you sound like still.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Very welland I'm afraid to ask.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
I'm not going to ask.

Speaker 6 (03:48):
Imagine how they both left the trash?

Speaker 8 (03:54):
Oh Man Peppy at the beach. I was the each
over the weekend, and the family that sat right next
to us had a giant portable speaker that they let
their kids control from an I've had, so we listened
to the same Taylor Swift song very loudly, over and

(04:16):
over again. I mean, I like music, but please don't
let your kids control it and keep replaying the same song.

Speaker 9 (04:24):
Thanks.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
I wonder if it was cruel summer?

Speaker 1 (04:26):
Yeah, I love that song.

Speaker 5 (04:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (04:27):
What's worse the same song playing over and over again
or a bunch of like profanity and like swam.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
Right, which you experience, right?

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Yeah, they were right next to us at an old
Orchard and I mean after f bomb.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah, you kind of have to like watch that.

Speaker 5 (04:41):
Oh yeah, the little one, I mean the good thing.
My daughter she really wasn't.

Speaker 6 (04:45):
Paying attention, but was your son though he's eight, he
would sing it along.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
Version regular guy ibove here.

Speaker 7 (04:57):
I've got a place on Old Orchard Beach in Maine,
and don't get me going with the beach toys. The
place gets busy and I'm sitting there and somebody is
playing horseshoes with iron horseshoes next to me with the
post next to my seat, and they're throwing it at me.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
That would make me scared too.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
Who plays horseshoes? I've never seen it.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
It's so happy to carry around.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
It's cast tired.

Speaker 6 (05:23):
You don't want to get hit in the face with
the horseshoes, like in the foot, like it should be illegal.

Speaker 3 (05:29):
The plastic one they do. Yeah, that's a lot like
an old set. Yeah, that's a good one.

Speaker 5 (05:35):
I feel like you see corn hole more than.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
Horses yeah, yeah, or like spike ball. The kids love
spik I.

Speaker 6 (05:40):
Don't go to the beach off and do people bring
cornhole to the beach they do.

Speaker 5 (05:45):
There's all these new games too. I noticed that I've
never seen before. There's one way you throw a ball
in this little mini trample that's not spikefall.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Yeah, and then there's like paddle we have like these
paddle things.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
The boys like spike ball.

Speaker 6 (05:57):
I think it's a great beach because you're really not
bothered anyone, the ball is not going.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Anywhere, and so many people can play too.

Speaker 5 (06:03):
Yeah. Yeah, I was whipping the ball across the entire beach.
I'm that guy. I did my best not to anybody.

Speaker 11 (06:08):
Good morning, guys. I was just in South Carolina and
there's constant reports about sharks and it's a big pet
peeve of mine. Where the kid's in the water, everyone's
having a great time Fourth of July week and this
man is sitting on the edge of the water with
a big old fishing pole. Not only can the hook
and wires get caught.

Speaker 5 (06:29):
Up with people, but sharks.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Love chum dummy.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
Yeah, you know what, that's a good one.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
That hook would hurt totally. Who fishes like on the
shoreline with some guys.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
I've seen it. She's so right. It is kind of weird.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Is that's called casting?

Speaker 6 (06:45):
Yeah, and when you cast you have to like you
reach back the rod.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
Either in the water or on the beach, you know,
because you're casting back.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
But she's saying, like the chut, like the bait is
like attracting. She knows what I feel like you're.

Speaker 10 (07:06):
Either either deep sea fishing or like pond or lake fishing,
like on the on the docks.

Speaker 6 (07:12):
Yeah, I would have a problem with somebody standing on
the beach.

Speaker 5 (07:15):
Yeah, that'd be a little weird.

Speaker 12 (07:16):
Pet peas on the beach is PDA. You can always
tell when someone's a tourist because they're romantically straddling each
other in the water or flattering each other with sunscreen
in a really weird way, like keep it home.

Speaker 10 (07:34):
You see that all people have sect on the beach
and sometimes broad daylight with people around it to you
could be.

Speaker 6 (07:40):
On a crowded beach, right, and there's always one couple, right,
they're kind of half covered by a towel or something,
and they're getting closer and closer, and all of a
sudden they're like, you know, rolling around, and you're like, okay,
really use the car, yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Or go home.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
You know, being a parent is hard and sometimes things
don't go your way. Hey, it's producer Riley from Billy
and Lisa in the Morning, kind of down the top
five moments of the week with you. Let's get right
into number four, because that's exactly what happened to Justin.

Speaker 5 (08:09):
Justin.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
You've got a story you want to talk about.

Speaker 5 (08:11):
Well, yesterday I was at home, you know, sitting on
my couch after work, a little tired, and you know,
I have a credit card that I use for pretty
much everything for the miles, yeah, you know, Capital One card,
and so I had logged on to check something. I'm
not good about checking my transactions. I should be better
about that. Yeah, for fraud, right, oh sure. So I
open it up and I'm looking and I see all

(08:32):
these charges on them again, okay, yeah, but this is
I know you might remember last year I gave all
my money away. Oh yes, that was my debit card.
But this is my credit card. So I see all
these charges that are pending, like six of them, and
it says Xbox.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
Oh your son.

Speaker 5 (08:48):
Okay. So then I'm like, I'm confused, and I start
to scroll down a little bit to pryor transactions and
it was unbelievable. So now I'm like my son's in school,
so he plays Xbox obviously, Sure, so I call Xbox.
I'm on the phone with them. I'm chatting online trying
to figure it. They're trying to help me. They can't

(09:09):
figure it. I was a whole thing. Turns out he
was my card. I had put on his game for
a ten dollars subscription so he could play like with
his friends. And so that means when he goes to
buy they're called v bucks on fortnit. Yeah, he just
he just was just buying them that much.

Speaker 6 (09:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (09:27):
How much were you joking here?

Speaker 5 (09:28):
I really don't want to say.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Say it was it like a thousand.

Speaker 5 (09:31):
Dollars around them? Yeah? Yeah, it's parenting, is not?

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Are they going to reverse some of the charges They
will not?

Speaker 5 (09:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (09:42):
Wow, you know I never used to.

Speaker 5 (09:45):
Yeah here's the best, But can I just best part? Okay,
So it's my I. I talked to my son. I
didn't yell at him. I didn't say he was in trouble.
I should have known better. He didn't. I mean, when
he when he goes to buy them, it doesn't say like,
here's your card. Automatically you press the button and boom,
you know. So when he got home I explained that
to him and he was very understanding and he was like,

(10:06):
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, and he goes, hold on a second, Dad,
I'm going to make this right. And he walks into
the other room and comes back with his wallet that
he has and he opens his wallet and he takes
out the two dollars and he goes here, Dad, I
like that.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
He gave you everything he had.

Speaker 5 (10:25):
That's the whole two bucks. So it's just a warning
for parents out there if they play video games, don't
have your card on there.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
Yeah, the same thing happened to us a long yeah.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (10:35):
Also I had to check your transactions because last year
I never really looked at transactions a lot, and last
year I happened to look and I think it was
my AMEX card and there were like thirty to forty
Uber chargers in a row, like like a string of
Uber chargers, thousands of dollars and it wasn't me, and
it was all in San Francisco, and I'm like, I
guess that must be where they're offered.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
And you know, I called. All I did was called Amex.
Luckily it was the NX card and they wiped it out.

Speaker 6 (11:03):
That's the good news, but the bad news I saw
it on my credit report. So I still got hit
on my credit report because of Uber falsely or like
crookedly charging me.

Speaker 3 (11:15):
Can I give you to a tip?

Speaker 10 (11:16):
You guys can on the apps that you have, have
them notify you and it's a charge. So I have
an Airmax card that's for my Delta cause I have
a Delta card.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah, and every.

Speaker 10 (11:24):
Time I make a purchase, I get a little notification
with the personages and for how much more?

Speaker 8 (11:28):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (11:29):
What you see?

Speaker 5 (11:30):
That's a good tip. I use my card for everything.

Speaker 10 (11:32):
Yeah, but I mean it's worth it for the times
that you're like with the able thing. You could have
caught that a month ago, you know, yeah, b Bucks
Fortnite thousand thousand evens, there.

Speaker 5 (11:44):
Was it was around there. It was, you know, twenty
five dollars. It was averaging about one hundred dollars the
day a day, going back several days.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
Oh god, well, I'm glad you caught it.

Speaker 5 (11:55):
Luckily I looked. So that's the PSA for today. Make
sure you check your transfer.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Did you pull the plug on it?

Speaker 13 (12:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (12:00):
I took my card off and he was very understanding
of that.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
Yeah, you know, well.

Speaker 10 (12:04):
It seems like he did the I mean for eight
liked him trying to give you his two dollars and
being apologetic.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
That's a win.

Speaker 5 (12:10):
Yes, yeah, he was. He was very understanding and he
could see that I was upset.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
It's an expensive win as a parent, but it's a win.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
Did you keep the two bucks?

Speaker 5 (12:18):
I gave him the two bucket Dad?

Speaker 2 (12:21):
All right, let's get right into the number three moment.
It's producer Riley from Billy and Lisa in the Morning
counting them down for you, and Tender recently changed some
of its rules. But justin I think that you have
to break the news.

Speaker 5 (12:32):
Billy, I'm bad news for you. Well not really because
you're married, but if you were single, there could be
potential bad news because Tinder is testing on a new
feature that allows users to search by height. So it's
a filter that can search specifically by height. So they're saying,
they're asking the question, actually, is the reign of the

(12:54):
short king over on Tinder?

Speaker 3 (12:56):
Okay? I need to say something.

Speaker 6 (12:58):
Okay, because I was never singled out or called short
by anybody in my life until I came around you.

Speaker 10 (13:09):
Hey, to be respectful this group of people, I want
to be respectful.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Bill.

Speaker 10 (13:12):
You're very handsome. You're an average sized man. You have
three very handsome, average sized sons, and they're all short.
They're all shorter than you. I want to say there
may be five six five seven your sons.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
I think they're probably five eight five nine. No, because
you're five and a half.

Speaker 10 (13:28):
You're five eight five nine.

Speaker 3 (13:31):
And a half. That's what I mean. It's never been
considered short.

Speaker 6 (13:33):
I've never been called hey, who's that short guy?

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Listen? My father is five to six. So I'm not
here for you to talk about hype exactly. I've come
up to my kneecap.

Speaker 10 (13:44):
I think short kings are amazing. I love a short king,
and you are a short king.

Speaker 3 (13:50):
How tall is your new boyfriend? Quest? Lovefess of all?
He's not quite justin.

Speaker 5 (13:56):
In my line boyfriend looks like question. No, he doesn't
at all. Anyway, they're testing this, this feature. It's causing
a lot of controversy because people are saying that it's
kind of not right.

Speaker 10 (14:09):
Yeah, you know, but hinjury does it. So some dating
apps already do it, but you have to pay. It's
like a feature, this one too. Yeah, so it'll be
thirty nine to ninety nine a month.

Speaker 6 (14:19):
So how does it work? You're a description determined how
what is short?

Speaker 5 (14:22):
Basically a filter and you can put in a specific
height and it will only show people of that height.
So if you want people that are five eleven or taller,
it'll only show those people.

Speaker 3 (14:31):
Ah yeah yeah.

Speaker 10 (14:32):
So basically it's just because I will say, I've met
some guys on Tinder back in the day that claim
they are a certain height and they're not. They're not
anywhere near that. Guys didn't lie about their heights in
speginning of time. Literally Yeah see, there we go again.
I've never lied about my height. I am what I am.
I'm five ten and a half. Well, Michelle's taller than you, No,
she's not.

Speaker 6 (14:50):
Ye's a little when she wears heels because then she
she shows like a half inch taller than me, and
out of respect for me, she doesn't to appear tall.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
Okay, Whinnie, would you date a guy that was shorter
than you?

Speaker 13 (15:03):
No?

Speaker 3 (15:03):
But I'm five okay five one.

Speaker 6 (15:07):
Circus, I would have to literally date a little.

Speaker 10 (15:13):
Person to be shorter than me. So no, but I
mean I wouldn't have done it wrong with that. But
I'm just saying, I know.

Speaker 5 (15:20):
Down the hall, actually at Jamine. She's tall, you know,
she's almost got good eleven. I think she was a
basketball player. She will never date a guy that's shorter
than her. Her husband's like six three. Yeah really yeah,
he's tall. Tall guys a firefighter six three?

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Whoa you knew?

Speaker 10 (15:35):
Realize that actually from Jaman has about four inches on
you and she's five eleven.

Speaker 6 (15:38):
She does not have four inches on me. She does
to wring her down the hole?

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Can get can we get? Actually felvin down? Can you see?

Speaker 5 (15:47):
I would you didn't send her down?

Speaker 6 (15:49):
She's probably wearing platform sneakers.

Speaker 10 (15:50):
No, she only wear Oh my god, I didn't see.
This was more about the people dating on Tinder.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
It's not about you. So what did you do? You
turned in about me?

Speaker 5 (15:59):
It was it was justin So they'll have also besides
the height option, the tiara will also include prioritized likes,
a specific interest filter, I like that, and a message
before you match functions. So those are other cool functions.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
And it's never gonna work well.

Speaker 10 (16:13):
It does sometimes is intended just becoming like what it
was with like match dot com. It's like basically taking
old school daying websites and making it on an app again.

Speaker 5 (16:21):
Right, yeah, pretty much, pretty much. But I do know,
like I said about Ashley down the hall, this is
a real thing for at least for women.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (16:29):
They only want Oh she's coming up here right now.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
Actually, fel then come up to please.

Speaker 6 (16:36):
Yeah, okay, already she's flexing.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
Are you are you okay?

Speaker 5 (16:41):
Okay, so she's asked, My god, oh she's well, she
got a couple of inches.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
A couple of inchests Ashley Feldman, you're five to eleven. Correct,
she's five to ten roster height? Ten roster height?

Speaker 5 (16:53):
Oh my god, she's five ten and she's two inches
taller than Billy, not five ten, So you're five eight?

Speaker 3 (16:58):
Yes, about everything down a shairman.

Speaker 5 (17:01):
Oh wait a minute, hold on, hold on, hold on, Billy, Ashley.
Billy is claiming that he is five to ten and
you are five to ten and you are two inches tall.

Speaker 14 (17:09):
I am first off, we just went back to back
and my I don't even have a butt and my
body is higher than your buddy. Bill.

Speaker 3 (17:16):
That's so sweet.

Speaker 5 (17:16):
Are you?

Speaker 3 (17:17):
Are you telling people you're five to ten? That is
so cute? In my life, you don't have enough? Who
did you pay to get that.

Speaker 6 (17:25):
I'm telling you, you know, I mean, I'm I.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
Mean we can. I am taller than you. You felt that, rest, Yes,
you've got a platform. Let's not Karen read this.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Am I taller than you?

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Yet to know you felt that? It appears that way.

Speaker 14 (17:37):
Let me ask it differently. Okay, I am taller than you, though,
and I've always been toller than you.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
I don't, right, Ash, he's trying.

Speaker 10 (17:44):
I've been saying he's five eight, a solid five eight
for like the longest time. I could feel that, right,
because you have your five tens, so it's about two
three inches.

Speaker 14 (17:52):
Yeah, I would give you five eight. I mean that
probably hurts, so we could say five to.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
Nine if you want.

Speaker 6 (17:57):
You're a lot of women, that's right, buddy.

Speaker 5 (17:59):
Yeah, your husband talking about three because there's a new
feature on Tender where you can search by height. They're rolling,
they're testing. Wow, Yeah, saying how you phenomena only guys
that are taller than you.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
I'm very weird with my two things.

Speaker 5 (18:12):
Bill.

Speaker 14 (18:12):
I will only date a man A that is taller
than me. And b could beat me one on one
in basketball because I played in college and if if
I could beat you, in a one on one basketball
you are not a man.

Speaker 5 (18:26):
It's just.

Speaker 3 (18:28):
Directly and said that.

Speaker 6 (18:30):
So you're saying like in another world, right, completely hypothetical
different this game, you would express no interest in me
because I'm shorter than you.

Speaker 5 (18:40):
Zero.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (18:42):
How do you know I can't beat you in basketball?

Speaker 3 (18:44):
Okay? I didn't come down here to back you. Yeah, yeah,
this is this is going to become abuse.

Speaker 5 (18:52):
Yeah. I don't want that for you. You take you,
Thank you.

Lisa in the Morning. It's producer Riley and I'm counting
them down for you, and Ben Mesick is somebody that
we can always turn to to give us details and
share amazing news.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
It's number two.

Speaker 6 (19:33):
Good morning Ben, Hey, Good morning Billy.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
How are you good now?

Speaker 6 (19:36):
Ben? First things first, you were the very first person
on Lisa Dunnovan's book club and now it's international.

Speaker 13 (19:43):
It's amazing. Listen, it's the best book club in America
for sure. I love it.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Ben help launch it.

Speaker 6 (19:48):
So yeah, oh she's all over the country. Now she's
going to Tampa, She's going everywhere.

Speaker 13 (19:54):
I mean, it's amazing.

Speaker 5 (19:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (19:55):
Uh so I got to ask you, Ben, when there's
a sequel, do you get another.

Speaker 3 (19:59):
Hit as a as in what.

Speaker 9 (20:06):
I do?

Speaker 3 (20:07):
Get a check?

Speaker 8 (20:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (20:08):
Of course, you know, I get accredation. You know, it
has to say something about the story based on or
something like that, and you know they are it is
being pushed as a sequel, even though it's going to
be take place I think about fifteen years later. But
it's uh yeah, I'm I'm I'm as involved as as
you know, one who created the first one would be.

Speaker 6 (20:30):
But yeah, oh yeah, wait a minute, did you write
the sequel?

Speaker 11 (20:35):
No?

Speaker 13 (20:35):
So basically, Aaron, you know, has been trying to figure
this out and crack this story for a while, and
he and I go back and forth, and I knew
he was working. I knew kind of the direction he
was going. But it's not No, I did not write
a book or anything. And so it's really it's Aaron's
script and he's directing, So it's going to be hit ballgame,

(20:56):
but it's going to be related to the social network,
I think as much as Son can relate it, just
because that was such a cultural moment, I think you
would say, so, yeah, it's it's his own story, but
it's based on true events and it will have you know,
I hope Jesse will be back. I can't imagine it
with a different Mark Zuckerberg. So you know, it'll be

(21:19):
the same characters really the way we drew them. So
it's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
It is, and so much has happened, Oh my god, Yeah,
so much to talk about.

Speaker 13 (21:27):
Listen, you can you can pretty much blame Facebook for everything.

Speaker 3 (21:32):
Well, think what.

Speaker 6 (21:33):
Happened with Facebook after the movie The Social Network.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
It just blew up, blew up.

Speaker 13 (21:38):
When we wrote that. When that movie came out, you know,
Facebook was a little thing. It hadn't iPod yet. Mark
was not the new Mark you see now.

Speaker 6 (21:46):
It was even a little thing on the Harvard campus.
I mean, you know, nobody knew.

Speaker 13 (21:50):
About nobody knew about it, and and so it's such
a it became such a big company afterwards. That was
like its origin story. It's like the Marvel Universe. That
was like the origin story of Wolverine, and now he
can see the Avengers assemble.

Speaker 1 (22:03):
It really changed, it changed the world.

Speaker 13 (22:06):
Yeah, yeah, I think it did. And and now now
we'll see what he does with it. But I think
it's going to be much more about you know, where
does that go, Like the Mark wants to rule the
world and change the world, and then he really did. Yeah,
and then a lot of sort of I mean, you
could look at it negative or positively, but I think
knowing Aaron, it'll be it'll be somewhat dark and funny

(22:27):
at the same time.

Speaker 6 (22:28):
You know, Justin brought up a good point the other day.
Do you think the sequel is going to include Zuckerberg's
like UFC fighting and jiu jitsu and.

Speaker 13 (22:39):
Now he's transformed, He's transformed into this like you know,
you're gonna have to work out all the time where
a necklace and his hair And yeah, I think it will.
But I think to some extent it probably you know
a little bit of the transformation of someone from like
a robotic nerd to who we see today.

Speaker 3 (22:57):
Now.

Speaker 6 (22:57):
Aren't you close enough to Jesse Eisenberg at this point
or even Justin Timberlake. You just give them a call
and ask him. So, are you going to be in
the sequel or not?

Speaker 13 (23:05):
Yeah, I know, Jesse, I haven't kept up with Justin.
That would have been cool, but no, Jesse and I
have kept up because I'm doing this movie with the
Emma Stone and Nathan Fielder. I think we talked about
last time, and Jesse is friends with them, so I've
kept up with him. He's he's brilliant. I think he's
just a genius. I mean, I could ask him, but

(23:27):
I think it's easier just I mean, it'll it'll come out.
I'm sure he's trying to figure out you know, I'm
sure listen, how can he not come back? It's the
best role ever, and I'm sure he'll come back. That
would be my guests.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Do you know the timing of this, like when they're slating,
Oh yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:42):
This is all happening.

Speaker 13 (23:43):
We're in they're in casting and and they've already I mean,
this is this is a thing, you know, it's it's
actually I would bet they're filming by the fall. That
would be my guests at the end of the summer.
So I bet this comes out next.

Speaker 6 (23:56):
Year that it would be great man, I'm thinking of you.
You know, to be great, you could talk to your
buddy Aaron. I don't think I didn't notice you call
him by a first name and not just Aaron. It
would be awesome if they you got them to give
you a cameo in the movie. I mean, you wrote
the book that created the movie. You at least deserve
a cameo.

Speaker 13 (24:16):
I mean, listen, I'm I'm with you, really, I really,
I really.

Speaker 6 (24:20):
Well, maybe they can have Chess Eisenberger beat the spit
out of you in the movie.

Speaker 13 (24:25):
Yeah, a good realistic scene at this point. You know,
I can reprise my role as sexy est bachelor from d.

Speaker 3 (24:34):
To bring that back.

Speaker 13 (24:35):
Yeah, yeah, you know what, Ben.

Speaker 4 (24:37):
Where are?

Speaker 3 (24:42):
Give me plug?

Speaker 1 (24:43):
Your new book it's coming out right at the beginning
of twenty twenty.

Speaker 13 (24:46):
Well it's it's it's coming out in the spring of
next year. But it's the Chess Scandal, the cheating scandal
of Magnus Carlson and Hans Neman, which was this big
cheating scandal in Chess, and it's all about.

Speaker 5 (24:57):
That's the RB.

Speaker 6 (24:58):
Yes, yeah, the sorry and you already booked for the
book books.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
He's booked for the book clubs.

Speaker 13 (25:04):
Okay, Yeah, man be a lot of fun And that's
a Nathan Fielder movie.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
Nathan Fielder is writing and directing.

Speaker 13 (25:10):
If you know his work, I'm sure there'll be a
lot of anal beads in it.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
Sometimes things just really work out for us.

Speaker 3 (25:18):
Ay.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
It's producer Riley from Billy and Lisa in the Morning
kind of down the top five moments of the week
with you and there's a reason that this is number one.
We love to get the inside scoop on Boston News,
but it doesn't always happen that the person gives us
a call back.

Speaker 15 (25:32):
Well, Brian and Groom had a pretty good laugh about
a minor wedding day mishappened Boston recently, and of course
it was all caught on camera. The newly weds and
their wedding party were riding a party bus in the
reception with the bus got stuck under a low overpass
on the city's store drive. The groomsman his expression, they're
set at all and that's so common in Boston.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
There is actually a name for it.

Speaker 5 (25:55):
It's called getting store roaded.

Speaker 15 (25:58):
The couple says that the bumping the road is a
true sign there together.

Speaker 5 (26:03):
And I can't wait for Star Growing season.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
A couple more weeks.

Speaker 6 (26:08):
I when I saw this story, I really liked their attitude.
Nobody freaked out, Nobody got angry at the minibus driver.
Everybody's you know what happens. It happened sign okay, but fine,
fine was the driver and it wasn't their vehicle. It
was in the driver. They're not liable when it's the driver.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
Now where they were going Vanazia?

Speaker 3 (26:32):
Oh, I like.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Right on the water. Yeah, yeah, on the right of.

Speaker 5 (26:37):
If anybody knows Stephen Vartenni I think Vartini Bartini. Yeah, yeah,
have them call us. We'd love to talk to him
about this.

Speaker 6 (26:44):
Yeah, they were cool. Too many people freak out when
something happens on the wedding day. Oh my god, this
is horrible. It's only going to be something you laugh
about years later.

Speaker 10 (26:51):
Well, I would only care if I was liable. But
if they have the higher driver, not my project.

Speaker 5 (26:56):
It's typically they're the moving trucks and you're driving a
rented truck and you're liable.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
But in this when you have the driver from the company,
yeah you're good. Yeah. I don't know where he's working
right now, but well.

Speaker 5 (27:08):
The signs are everywhere. Yeah, and without fail every year
first week of September at least sever.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yeah, end of August, first week of September.

Speaker 3 (27:16):
The moving trucks. Now, do we think they need to remeasure?

Speaker 10 (27:19):
Like maybe they're saying that it's like eight you know,
eight feet six inches, maybe it's eight three like, is
that the issue since it happened so much.

Speaker 6 (27:28):
No, I think it's got to be pretty accurate. It's
it's done by like inspectors.

Speaker 5 (27:33):
Yeah, it's just that there's so many short bridges, so
many low ridges. What are they going to do rebuild
them all?

Speaker 3 (27:39):
That would take forever.

Speaker 6 (27:40):
Yeah, and it's unlike most places in the country. Oh yeah,
it's just lower than usual.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (27:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Don't they deflate the tires to get the truck out?

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Yeah, it's one of the things you have.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
Yeah, there's a bridge right down the street here in
Maldon that trucks get caught in all the time. Too.
Twice I've left the radio station and drove by and
the truck was jammed and the bridge. Oh that's where
you get down and take a left right street.

Speaker 3 (28:03):
Yeah okay, yeah.

Speaker 5 (28:04):
All the time.

Speaker 6 (28:05):
We have the bride on the phone. Her name is
Vartny and she's calling in from Watertown. Good morning, Vartny.

Speaker 9 (28:13):
Good morning.

Speaker 3 (28:14):
This is so funny.

Speaker 6 (28:15):
So we're talking about the story and you were listening,
and what do you know there you are, Well.

Speaker 9 (28:20):
I actually happened. I wasn't listening. My planner was listening.
Shout out to Taylor from Charlestown, who also listens to
your show and loves you. So Taylor called me and
she's like, you need to call them immediately.

Speaker 6 (28:33):
Vartany how dare you not be listening to this morning show?

Speaker 3 (28:36):
How dare you?

Speaker 9 (28:37):
I grew up listening to it with my mom. So
this is this is incredible.

Speaker 6 (28:43):
Well, first of all, congratulations to you and your husband.

Speaker 9 (28:47):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
Okay, so walk us through it.

Speaker 6 (28:50):
You had just tied the knot and you were going
from the church to the party, the reception, so to speak.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
What happened.

Speaker 9 (29:00):
Yeah, So we got married at Saint James Armenian Church
in Watertown and we got on the party bus to
head to Venezia where a reception was. And the party,
I mean, we're having a good time in the back
of the party bus and dancing, having a good time,
ready to continue the good time. And then there was

(29:26):
a glass over the top of the party bus. So
we kind of looked up and we're like, oh, we're
on sto drive, like what like this isn't this isn't good.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
He should not have come this way.

Speaker 9 (29:39):
And my maid of honor happened to be recording the
video just because she's like what is everyone looking at?
Because she's not from the area, She's from California, so
she's like, everyone's kind of like bracing for impact, like
what is going on? And that's when we passed the
chains that were hanging down because there's like clearance warnings basically,

(30:02):
and so he passed that or he must have hit
the chains, I don't know. The music was blasting, and
then he inched closer, slowing down towards the bridge, where
he did in fact scrape the.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
Top of the bus.

Speaker 9 (30:16):
And that's when everyone's shocked. We're all looking around like
what is going to happen right now? He stopped and
then we all sat down because we're like, Okay, what
if someone rear ends us right now, like this could
turn into a very chaotic real quick. And he was
able to reverse off of Sorrow onto the exit ramp

(30:40):
by some miracle. We were all safe, we didn't need
a police detail, and it all ended very happily. But
in the moment, I was extremely shocked and panicked. And
if you did watch the actual video recording my I

(31:00):
turned to my husband and he's like pumping everyone up.
That's like his mo o. He's like, nothing's going to
stop us. We're going to have an incredible time. This
is going to be the best night ever. And it
really was. And we got to our wedding a couple
of minutes late. And I mean no one at our

(31:22):
wedding venue even knew that it happened, because we didn't
even talk about it. It was just like a funny
story on.

Speaker 3 (31:28):
The party bus.

Speaker 6 (31:29):
Well, you gotta love your husband though, he stepped in
and took charge.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
Well, first of all, what's his name, Stephen Akean Steven,
Good job, buddy.

Speaker 6 (31:38):
So you must be sitting there saying, boy, I think
I got the right guy.

Speaker 9 (31:43):
Yeah, definitely, definitely. He's the he's the calm to my
to my crazy.

Speaker 6 (31:48):
Uh now, so everything you get to the reception, I'm
sure that was the buzz story for a while.

Speaker 10 (31:53):
Right.

Speaker 6 (31:53):
Oh my god, we almost didn't make it. We hit
a bridge, we didn't even.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
Talk about it.

Speaker 9 (31:58):
Actually, like he was so ready to party and have
a good time. It was just like one like glimpse
of like the entire day and we just danced the
night away.

Speaker 6 (32:10):
Good for you guys, because so many people would let
it ruin their day, you know, and you guys just
forged ahead and you had a great time.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
Was there a honeymoon?
