Speaker 4 (02:46):
Yeah, yeah, it's always the receiver actually tripped over me.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yes, that was controversial. I mean last year. Last year
was a little controversial. Oh yeah, yeah. Well, first of all,
Arlington brought bus loads of kids and when they didn't,
you know, they didn't win, they got in they they
stormed off the field and their buses and left. Oh yeah,
and it came down to Everett and Salem.
Speaker 7 (03:08):
It was raining really bad last year.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It was really bad.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Years ago. One of the teams stole one of the turkeys.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
Oh, and then there was a year where we had
to we always have a backup turkey in case the
other one comes out of the packaging, and whoever brought
it in marketing, they no longer work here, so doesn't matter.
Bought one that was like five pounds later than the
other one. So then there was controversy with oh it
wasn't as heavy as the other people they to do
another tosk.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Well, there are some years where the bird takes a
beating and yeah, he comes out of the packaging and
then it becomes very messy. But the stealing of the
bird became a part of the Turkey Toss tradition. They
did it for several years running. Absolutely, we had to
have state troopers standing by.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Well, there are state troopers down there to guard the birds.
And of course Everett has won most years. Yeah, I mean,
they're so good. They won last year. It was crazy and.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
The runner up last year, I never thought anybody was
going to beat that toss, but then Everett came in
and literally threw it into Arlington.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Yeah, I mean yeah, and in the next town. It
was unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
One of my favorite pictures is I was so excited
on the field. I had a full rain suit on,
like Georgie yellow rain suit with a hat and I
was jumping for joy for them.
Speaker 3 (04:54):

the kids.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
I want some wedding drama for your number four moment.
Good morning, everybody, welcome back. It is justin So. This
couple spent sixty grand on their wedding. They were hoping
for a lot of cash as gifts, but they only
made back about three grand and had to cancel their honeymoon.
This was a very controversial one, so people wanted to
talk about this story and well other wedding drama.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Number four Courtney from Burlington, What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 9 (06:02):
I got married at the Liberty this summer. I think
I talked to you guys in the springtime, so close
to seventy five thousand. Wow, we're pretty generous, but you know,
people might have had to stay at a hotel or
check their car in the valet. We invited a hundred
of like our closest friends and family. We were pretty
particular and some were really generous, like even up to
(06:22):
five hundred dollars, and some were not. We probably got
about a little under ten thousand gifted, and I know
for a fact that some people still haven't given anything.
And our wedding was in July.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Whow and you at the Liberty Hotel? Nice place?
Speaker 9 (06:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (06:38):
And you said you said.
Speaker 9 (06:42):
Close too, Yeah, And you know, we tried to be
like super accommodating, and we gifted some of our gifted
rooms to our closest family, and which is great. Paid
for the Yeah, I paid for the bridal parties everything,
and yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
But I think it goes back to what we were
saying before, like at the end of the day, like
you wanted to have a nice wedding and you know
what I mean.
Speaker 9 (07:01):
So it's yeah, yeah, we're still super happy that we
did it, but it was just like a little disheartening
because like with only one hundred people, you know, it's
your closest that's true.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Yeah, closest people are cheap.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Honey the couple in our story earlier this morning had
to cancel their honeymoon. Did you still have a honeymoon.
Speaker 9 (07:21):
We're going to this winter.
Speaker 10 (07:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (07:23):
We didn't rely on it that heavily. We were actually
hoping that it took off some of the if anything,
made a dent in the total cost, not like sent
us on a trip.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
All right, what they call we got to keep it going.
We got Katieyeah, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Just sorry, can I I was chiming on that, And
how did I think about it? Our wedding was in
and around fifty thousand dollars total and we got about
ten thousand in cash, and I didn't think that was
a big deal.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Well do you think about it?
Speaker 7 (07:51):
It's more of the math of what it would have
cost you per plate, because obviously there's also floor, old
stuff and all that. I think it's more the plate
that you're looking at, what the food cost, the liquor cost.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah, and also for that, you know that story. They
were depending on on on, you know, the large amount
of money. It's on the honeymoon, so they were expecting it.
We kind of weren't. Actually, it was the most money
we had ever seen our help. Yeah, and when we
went to the rum after the wedding, we laid all
we laid the money, and we laid on the money.
Speaker 6 (08:20):
That's disgusting.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Yeah, and then some a little bit, you know.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
But see, I think it's a mistake to count on
the money from the wedding because then you're going to
judge all your friends exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Let's go to Katie from Hay for O Katie, what's
your story?
Speaker 11 (08:36):
Hi?
Speaker 12 (08:36):
Good morning, How are you guys?
Speaker 6 (08:38):
Good?
Speaker 3 (08:38):
What have you got?
Speaker 10 (08:40):
So?
Speaker 12 (08:40):
I got married over the summer in a very similar
situation to the caller before me. A couple of days
after the wedding, my husband and I were going through
the cards and we noted that are some of our
closest friends, and we actually had one of the entire
tables of our girlfriend. I didn't give us anything, and
it's one thing like not to get a gift, you
(09:00):
can't expect anything. But we didn't even get a card
saying congratulations, And that was the most I would say,
this sartening thing that we weren't even worth like a
wedding card saying congratulations on your wedding.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
Yeah, that's that's awkward.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, it is awkward, and it is and it is
kind of rude that they're not even acknowledging it.
Speaker 12 (09:20):
Yeah, so you know, you don't want to think that,
you know, maybe the cards went missing, but you also
it's one of those things that we can never bring
up and be like, hey, did you end up giving
us a card? So it's just kind of a good
drop thing.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
See I mentioned that earlier. That's the problem.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
If the card is misplaced, then you're assuming you didn't
get a gift, when in fact they gave you a gift.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
How do you deal with that?
Speaker 7 (09:37):
That's actually a great strategy if you don't want to
give somebody a present, be like did you.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Get my gift? Oh my god, someone stole it.
Speaker 7 (09:44):
That's flavor to you.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I am doing that.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
I am so doing that.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Oh I can't believe this. I went five hundred dollars
in that card for you. Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
I wonder if the previous collar is still friends with
those people. Let's go to Tina and she's in Bridgewater. Tina,
give us a story.
Speaker 9 (10:02):
Good morning. I would like to think that some of
the people didn't give ten dollars and maybe they gave
an actual gift.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yes, that's that's a that's another part of the story,
that that they didn't say that they didn't receive gifts
as well as cash. They may have received gifts, they
were just relying on the cash.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, well that's that's their own fault. That's a mistake.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
You know, you're always going to be uh disappointed. But
if they did, if they gave a gift, where was
the gift.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Well, they got the gifts. I think they got gifts.
I think they left that part out. I don't think
they didn't get any gifts. I think that the cash
is the main thing. They didn't get as much cash, right.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Like a gravy boat, like anyway exactly, even if you
return it to wherever, you.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Know, it's like, honey, we're going over a rule. But
take that gravy boat with us.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
By the way, no one wants gifts, you know, if
they register for something, yes, but other than that, yeah,
don't that. Don't do it.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Where the new trends make a lot of sense to me,
because you're right, most people don't want gifts. So now
you do the online thing, or you're just Venmo money
or Venmo gifts, or.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
They just tell you where to go to make donations.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
So they just do what they want you to do.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
They need money. They're starting a new life.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Okay, when I swear you're going to do that, aren't
you You're gonna Hey, you get right.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Yeah, I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
That it's coming. Don't worry.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Keep checking out a great idea. Let's go to Gina.
She's in den I'm good morning, Gina. Hi.
Speaker 11 (11:27):
So I grew up in New York and I'm obviously Italian. So, uh,
we give money. I don't know who gives gravy boats
and lenox I mean that's not you know, why would
you want that? I mean? But anyway, uh, you know,
and as Italians we sit down with the money bag
(11:49):
at the end of the day and go through it.
And you know, if Uncle Joe only gave fifty dollars.
Uncle Joe will never be seen or invited to anything again.
So and that's the way I think it should be.
And I think ten thousand dollars cash on fifty thousand
that you paid for the wedding is just really sad
(12:12):
and it says something about you know, and I don't
know if that tradition is here, but Italians give money, yeah,
you know, and it's a pretty big deal, like how.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Much you give.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Let's go to Stevie's and Lawrence it's our first guy.
I think Steve good morning.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
So we had seventy people come to Fort Lauderdal, and
so we didn't really expect many gifts because just the
fact that they were paying to go down there and
everyone had a rent a suit or address, and we
just didn't expect it. So we just wanted everybody to
come to have a good time.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Yeah. I like that.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah, you're right, that's what it should be about, having
a good time, yeah, with friends and loved ones.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
But more importantly, which Billy would be more interested in,
is we met ten years ago when she was twenty
one and I was forty.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Oh, so a lot of people single out there in
the dating world going on first dates, and a big
question is what do you wear on a first date?
This was our number three moment from this week.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Okay, what to wear? What not to wear on a
first date?
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Lisa, You've got a list, Well, what is the best
thing to wear on a first date? Because a lot
of people out there, I'm sure are thinking about going
on a date, or they're going on a first date.
They're calling their friends saying what should I wear?
Speaker 4 (13:24):
So?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Do you dress sexy? Do you play it safe? Do
you go right from work? And you don't care? So
we have a list of colors that they say are
very powerful on first dates. They say that if you
wear green, it means you're confident. If you wear blue,
it means it's safe, you're going to like Billy, you
always wear blue. That's like a feeling of safety. So
(13:47):
if somebody is showing up in blue, Wait a.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Minute, hold on, do you feel safe next to Bill?
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Is I?
Speaker 9 (13:51):
Do I always feel safe?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Okay? Well, yeah, if someone came in and was trying
to harm you and Bill was next to you, are
you confident that he would protect you?
Speaker 1 (13:59):
I would probably, I think so, But I would call
you first, I think you Okay, No, I'm just saying
I love you. Purple is considered the color of connection,
and red always makes you feel more attractive. I don't
think so res not my color, but they're just saying
it's it's a strong choice.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Isn't Red also the color that they make the carpets
and the casinos because it makes you spend more money.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
It does.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
It kind of like gets you a little bit more.
I don't know what, Like the word.
Speaker 7 (14:28):
Is pappy or something endorphins, Yes, because doorphins.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yeah, it makes you want to sit there and just
spend all your money.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Wow, there's a lot of red in this building. Yeah,
or ihearts sometime.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Logost So what do you think is the is the
correct the appropriate thing to wear?
Speaker 1 (14:45):
So here's my one thing. Wear something that you're comfortable in.
Don't wear something that you've never worn before because it
might not fit you, right, It might make you sweat
because you're already nervous.
Speaker 7 (14:58):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So where like you're if you've got a favorite pair
of jeans or something like that that you know fits
you well, you look great in, that would be my
go to because you're gonna feel confident because you already
know that you look good in them.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
But how about the whole underdressed versus overdressed thing?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Well, I think you could. I think that, you know,
I think dressing a little bit too like sexy might
not be the way to go.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
I detiends on where the date is.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
But I feel like you're always good with like cute
jeans in a body suit or a cute top like
I don't think you need to be wearing like you know,
I mean deck.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
I wore a body suit my first date.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Well that's a good tip about wearing something you've worn before,
so you don't, you know, get hot and sweat, because
infamously Billy went on a first date when he was
single and the woman was wearing something that was making
her sweat. Remember that? Oh yeah, so that's a big one.
And he was turned off, you know, he wasn't didn't
kind of turned off by it.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
So what is wrong with you? It's a story, Really,
I didn't know it was a story. Is that different
than the girl that has sweaty hand? The same girl?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
All right?
Speaker 2 (16:02):
I don't know where.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Something comes right that, you know?
Speaker 9 (16:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Sure, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
We don't want to be too revealing, right, that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
To again, it's it's what you want to put off, right, Like,
what's the vibe you're sending?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Okay, Winny, what's the vibe I'm sending?
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I would wear jeans in a bodysuit putting while we're going.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
That's your uniform.
Speaker 6 (16:26):
I love the way it looks.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
I love it.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
It's all put together. It's casual, but it's it's cute.
It's not too dressy. But it's not like you're not
like slump. You know, you don't a slob. I can't
speak right now.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
What about yoga pants?
Speaker 4 (16:38):
No, no, it depends to wear the first date.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
No no, no, no, okay.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
If someone showed up wearing yoga pants on your first date.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Well there's a certain that you can dress on yoga pants. No, no, no,
what is it?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Twenty eleven pants?
Speaker 3 (16:57):
She brings her.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Ugs to I love a good pair of First pick
would be hot pants. Hop ooh. We are inching our
way to the number one moment, but we gotta get
to number two first. It's justin here. Welcome back. Everybody
in number two. Well goes with number three right. Topic
time happens every morning on the Billy and Lisa show
at seven forty, different topic every day. This one was
(17:20):
a crazy one. Every time we talk about dating, it
always is first dates? What do you wear? What do
you don't wear? And that turned into some crazy first
date nightmare stories. Number two.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Jackie's actually calling in from Rhode Island, the beautiful state
of Rhode Island. Good morning Jackie, Good morning Billy. So
what do you think if you had a first date nightmare?
Speaker 13 (17:42):
Actually quite the opposite. How you get all stressed and
all you know, anxiety ridden, ready for the first date.
And I did that a bunch of times, you know,
serial dater, and I got sick of it, and I said,
I'm not doing anymore. I'm not getting dressed, I'm not
getting dulled up. I'm just gonna be me. And I
(18:02):
wore the dreaded yoga pants.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Oh you did the yoga pants.
Speaker 13 (18:06):
Okay, yeah, I did the yoga pants. And I had
him to come over with some Chinese food. We watched
some Bob Ross and I didn't didn't do anything special,
and nine years later we're still together, married, two kids.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I love that Bob Ross the painter.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Okay, wait a minute, that sounds like a hell of
a day. I'm more interested in this story. So it
was a first date and you had them over to
your place.
Speaker 13 (18:33):
Yeah, yeah, we were talking for a while online, so
I had He honestly thought that I was gonna be
five guys in a pitfall. So it's kind of very uh,
pretty happy that I would end up reading who I
said I was.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
And I love that yees be comfortable, be yourself and
that's what you said.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Yeah, And you know what, Bob Ross, what's more calmon
than that.

You just paint a bigger treat right over the top.
Speaker 6 (18:59):
We don't make mys.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
We have happy accidents, and you have a brand new,
beautiful tree.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
And she wore yoga pants, which I am all for,
or when he seems to be against the yoga pants.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
I'm all for the yoga pants.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Really, why Hey, what the heck is wrong with yoga
pants and ugs?
Speaker 10 (19:18):
I'm wearing it right now.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
So cheot that. And it reminds me when I was
in high school.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
It was the uniform of every girl in high school.
It was yoga pants from Pink with the big ugs
that you were like sweuching around in a sweatshirt. And
as a grown woman, leggings are different than yoga pants.
I think leggings are fine, not for a date like that,
but like, come on, yoga.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Pants, that's all man. I think that's gonna upset a
lot of girls. They love. My wife loves the yoga pants. Yeah,
nothing wrong with them.
Speaker 14 (19:47):
On my first date with my boyfriend, I wore a
high necked body suit, a long shacket, and like straight
skinny jeans. And to this day he makes fun of
me because he was like, you were hiding the goods.
You have assets and you didn't even show them off
on our first date. And I'm like, no, you have
to protect the goods the first date.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Woow, that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Those are some words to live by to protect the goods.
Speaker 5 (20:12):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I must admit I'm a big fan of the shacket.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
What's a jacket?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
It's a lot. It looks like a shirt, but it's
you know you have one, it's over jacket, yes, and
it's usually like in flannel.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
I think they're very sexy.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yeah, all right, we speaking of speaking of men, Why
are we.
Speaker 15 (20:30):
Only talking about what women should wear on a first date?
Talk about what a man should wear.
Speaker 9 (20:36):
I think they need a lot more help than us.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Well, you know what, asking you shall receive.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
When it comes to first state.
Speaker 10 (20:42):
So I wear my uniform, speedout, an American flag bandana,
go USA.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
He's showing his all.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Right, if that doesn't say sexy, what does?
Speaker 6 (20:54):
Do?
Speaker 2 (20:54):
We want to address the never ending him on a
talkbacks going at Winnie for the criticizing yoga pants. I
knew that was going to happen.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
When you want to be stuck in high school.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Go ahead, I'm telling pants are very popular. Yeah, yeah,
they're very angry.
Speaker 7 (21:09):
Okay, I'm sorry you feel that way, but I just
feel like it's an adult woman. It's not the first
date situation.
Speaker 15 (21:15):
Okay, that Winnie is trolling women for wearing yoga pants
when on her Instagram there are multiple videos of her
wearing the most obscene lazy outfits to work, including a
gray cutoff sweatshirt that looks like something Bill Belichick would
wear a football game.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
First date, I said, for I can't BLI I don't
know who that was, but she goes right, I didn't.
Speaker 7 (21:51):
Think you couldn't wear it ever, I said, for a date.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
Here's the thing on yoga pants. In my eyes, yoga
pants can never look bad.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I agree, right, I agree?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
I think Lisa well, I mean, what are we talking.
I have a pair of Lulu Lemons and I wear
them every weekend.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
What's the difference between leggings and yoga pants?
Speaker 7 (22:14):
I don't get Leggings are tight like to your like
to your body. Yoga pants are the ones that have
like the flap where they flap over. They're looser on
the bottom, they're like boot leg cut. Yeah, I ad
the bottom.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
All different types.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
Right, But leggings are more just like to your body.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
I love I wear them.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
I wear the I don't wear the boot cut one.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Yeah, a lot of girls do.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
When they look great.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
I'm all in with as am I right, I can't
possibly go wrong with them.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Yeah, let's get back to these first dates.
Speaker 16 (22:43):
I've had many horrible first dates. Do you want to
talk about the guy that stood me up and then
re added me to say he's so sorry that his
friends deleted everything and that he was on his way
just to walk me from the parking garage to the
restaurant to say he needs to go to the bath,
just ditch me and never return. Or do you want
(23:03):
to talk about the guy who's only asterb you only
thing he could talk about was SpongeBob and then broke
out in the song in the middle of dinner.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Worse than I was expecting.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
There is no possible way this could not be the
number one moment. It's a doucy what up, guys, justin

Not as much as obviously when we're working together, and
Bridget's good.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Everybody's good. I hear Tom's put on a lot of weight. Yeah, okay, how.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
Many employ early for this I got, I planned, I planned,
I executed, did the whole thing, and this is what
I get.
Speaker 8 (26:25):
So how many employees now, dude, you're asking questions?
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Get the fun fact?
Speaker 10 (26:32):
I don't know. There's more more than I can count.
And we're so blessed with so many amazing people and
so many amazing franchisees and it just we're we're just
truly truly blessed.
Speaker 16 (26:42):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Alma in the Hangham Shipyard is really your baby. I mean,
there's wall Burgers and that's one thing, but Alma nov
is one of the finest restaurants in all of New England.
Speaker 6 (26:52):
Well, thank you, Verim. I appreciate that.
Speaker 10 (26:54):
We you know, we are so proud and you know,
being that being our original restaurant and we're so proud
of it and just the we want it to be
that place you can go to, you know, and you've
been there obviously, you've come out on your boat. And
when I think of that and the ability for people
to do that and come out and like they can take.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
The ferry out there, they can take your they.
Speaker 10 (27:14):
Can come on their boats stay overnight like you've done,
it's just amazing and and everybody's supportive and for us
to be able to be part of the community is
such a big thing and we just love it, absolutely
love it, and we we we get to make people happy.
That's our job, kind of like yours, except for you
know me, of course this morning, you know, because you
don't know, you don't know my name.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
You just don't know when I'm kidding, and you don't
even see I had lined up, you had it lined up. Yeah, yeah,
I've been out there a lot. And by the way,
hot tip, that's a good idea. You can take a
ferry right out of Boston. You'll be at Hangham Shipyard
on like twenty minutes.
Speaker 10 (27:50):
It's just like twenty minutes and it's like a little
vacation because you can literally come to the back door
of because it's right in the shipyard. So you can
walk right to Almanova, you can walk to Wallburg's, you
can want to the other restaurants.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
I'm shopping over there, lots.
Speaker 10 (28:02):
Of things, the movie theater, you can get you can
really kind of make a day of it, and it's great.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
So one of the other reasons you dropped by and
I really really really appreciate it, is that Jenny Johnson
and I are launching.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
A cookbook this week. It's already available on AM.
Speaker 6 (28:16):
You remember her name. That's good, that's a bonus.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Come on, buddy.
Speaker 6 (28:23):
So you I think this is going away. This is.
Speaker 10 (28:28):
Going when I see you on Wednesday night. Oh, I'm
gonna have well, we'll have fun with it.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
I know you're a nutcracker, so I can expect to
be you writing me on this for a while. So
you brought a dish, and this is the dish that
you feature in our.
Speaker 10 (28:41):
Cookbook box pansaired salmon with a Sicilian black rice and
a rubob vinigarette and there's a little salad of minted
cucumbers on top. So it's a little more seasonal, but
it's something that's a nice light dish.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
You can make it.
Speaker 10 (28:54):
For multiple people. It's easy to execute, and you can
stage it. You can make the right you can start
the rice two days before and kind of go through
everything and then it's and it's an easy execution.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
You actually made several of these dishes in our office.
Speaker 10 (29:08):
Yeah, so you know you've got this vast office here
with this great kitchen. You know, I was surprised. I mean,
the walking was bigger than the wasking we have a restaurant,
but yeah, we had a great spot and it was
something you know, we wanted. We, like I said, we
staged it. We started the rice you know, yesterday and
then we had everything together and then I prepped last night,
(29:29):
made the vineigarette, and then just easy execution this morning.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Now, why did you choose this dish for the cookbook?
Speaker 10 (29:36):
I thought it was a nice, like I said, that
nice seasonal thing. It's something that's a little bit different
for people. You know, you've got the vinigarrette, you've got
there's different cooking skills that you can kind of hone
doing it and learning how to, like I said, learning
how to stage things at home, because everybody talks about
it is meal prep, right, and when you when you're
trying to do your meal prep and stuff like that,
because if you're looking at Thanksgiving and these big meals
(29:58):
and Christmas and whatever holidays, you're feeding a large group
of people, large gathering. It's very very difficult and it's
daunting when you kind of think of it. And so
when you look at certain things and being able to
kind of plan things out and say, okay, I can
make this today, I can start this and peel these vegetables.
I can get myself closer because at the end of
(30:19):
the day, it's great to spend all of your time
in the kitchen, but you also want to spend time
with your guests and your family.
Speaker 15 (30:24):
Good point.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
And I have to say it looks really impressive. I mean,
it's a beautiful presentation.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
Yeah, yeah, it's always the receiver actually tripped over me.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yes, that was controversial. I mean last year. Last year
was a little controversial. Oh yeah, yeah. Well, first of all,
Arlington brought bus loads of kids and when they didn't,
you know, they didn't win, they got in they they
stormed off the field and their buses and left. Oh yeah,
and it came down to Everett and Salem.
Speaker 7 (03:08):
It was raining really bad last year.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
It was really bad.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Years ago. One of the teams stole one of the turkeys.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
Oh, and then there was a year where we had
to we always have a backup turkey in case the
other one comes out of the packaging, and whoever brought
it in marketing, they no longer work here, so doesn't matter.
Bought one that was like five pounds later than the
other one. So then there was controversy with oh it
wasn't as heavy as the other people they to do
another tosk.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Well, there are some years where the bird takes a
beating and yeah, he comes out of the packaging and
then it becomes very messy. But the stealing of the
bird became a part of the Turkey Toss tradition. They
did it for several years running. Absolutely, we had to
have state troopers standing by.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Well, there are state troopers down there to guard the birds.
And of course Everett has won most years. Yeah, I mean,
they're so good. They won last year. It was crazy and.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
The player from the defending champion in Everett.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
High School around the line.

To move chaos one.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
It was chaotic. It gets crazy.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
The runner up last year, I never thought anybody was
going to beat that toss, but then Everett came in
and literally threw it into Arlington.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Yeah, I mean yeah, and in the next town. It
was unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
One of my favorite pictures is I was so excited
on the field. I had a full rain suit on,
like Georgie yellow rain suit with a hat and I
was jumping for joy for them.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
He split your pants. It's so exciting.
Speaker 7 (04:57):

the kids.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
I want some wedding drama for your number four moment.
Good morning, everybody, welcome back. It is justin So. This
couple spent sixty grand on their wedding. They were hoping
for a lot of cash as gifts, but they only
made back about three grand and had to cancel their honeymoon.
This was a very controversial one, so people wanted to
talk about this story and well other wedding drama.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Number four Courtney from Burlington, What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 9 (06:02):
I got married at the Liberty this summer. I think
I talked to you guys in the springtime, so close
to seventy five thousand. Wow, we're pretty generous, but you know,
people might have had to stay at a hotel or
check their car in the valet. We invited a hundred
of like our closest friends and family. We were pretty
particular and some were really generous, like even up to
(06:22):
five hundred dollars, and some were not. We probably got
about a little under ten thousand gifted, and I know
for a fact that some people still haven't given anything.
And our wedding was in July.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Whow and you at the Liberty Hotel? Nice place?
Speaker 9 (06:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (06:38):
And you said you said.
Speaker 9 (06:42):
Close too, Yeah, And you know, we tried to be
like super accommodating, and we gifted some of our gifted
rooms to our closest family, and which is great. Paid
for the Yeah, I paid for the bridal parties everything,
and yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
But I think it goes back to what we were
saying before, like at the end of the day, like
you wanted to have a nice wedding and you know
what I mean.
Speaker 9 (07:01):
So it's yeah, yeah, we're still super happy that we
did it, but it was just like a little disheartening
because like with only one hundred people, you know, it's
your closest that's true.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Yeah, closest people are cheap.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Honey the couple in our story earlier this morning had
to cancel their honeymoon. Did you still have a honeymoon.
Speaker 9 (07:21):
We're going to this winter.
Speaker 10 (07:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (07:23):
We didn't rely on it that heavily. We were actually
hoping that it took off some of the if anything,
made a dent in the total cost, not like sent
us on a trip.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
All right, what they call we got to keep it going.
We got Katieyeah, go ahead.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Just sorry, can I I was chiming on that, And
how did I think about it? Our wedding was in
and around fifty thousand dollars total and we got about
ten thousand in cash, and I didn't think that was
a big deal.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Well do you think about it?
Speaker 7 (07:51):
It's more of the math of what it would have
cost you per plate, because obviously there's also floor, old
stuff and all that. I think it's more the plate
that you're looking at, what the food cost, the liquor cost.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah, and also for that, you know that story. They
were depending on on on, you know, the large amount
of money. It's on the honeymoon, so they were expecting it.
We kind of weren't. Actually, it was the most money
we had ever seen our help. Yeah, and when we
went to the rum after the wedding, we laid all
we laid the money, and we laid on the money.
Speaker 6 (08:20):
That's disgusting.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Yeah, and then some a little bit, you know.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
But see, I think it's a mistake to count on
the money from the wedding because then you're going to
judge all your friends exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Let's go to Katie from Hay for O Katie, what's
your story?
Speaker 11 (08:36):
Hi?
Speaker 12 (08:36):
Good morning, How are you guys?
Speaker 6 (08:38):
Good?
Speaker 3 (08:38):
What have you got?
Speaker 10 (08:40):
So?
Speaker 12 (08:40):
I got married over the summer in a very similar
situation to the caller before me. A couple of days
after the wedding, my husband and I were going through
the cards and we noted that are some of our
closest friends, and we actually had one of the entire
tables of our girlfriend. I didn't give us anything, and
it's one thing like not to get a gift, you
(09:00):
can't expect anything. But we didn't even get a card
saying congratulations, And that was the most I would say,
this sartening thing that we weren't even worth like a
wedding card saying congratulations on your wedding.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
Yeah, that's that's awkward.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, it is awkward, and it is and it is
kind of rude that they're not even acknowledging it.
Speaker 12 (09:20):
Yeah, so you know, you don't want to think that,
you know, maybe the cards went missing, but you also
it's one of those things that we can never bring
up and be like, hey, did you end up giving
us a card? So it's just kind of a good
drop thing.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
See I mentioned that earlier. That's the problem.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
If the card is misplaced, then you're assuming you didn't
get a gift, when in fact they gave you a gift.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
How do you deal with that?
Speaker 7 (09:37):
That's actually a great strategy if you don't want to
give somebody a present, be like did you.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Get my gift? Oh my god, someone stole it.
Speaker 7 (09:44):
That's flavor to you.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I am doing that.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
I am so doing that.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Oh I can't believe this. I went five hundred dollars
in that card for you. Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
I wonder if the previous collar is still friends with
those people. Let's go to Tina and she's in Bridgewater. Tina,
give us a story.
Speaker 9 (10:02):
Good morning. I would like to think that some of
the people didn't give ten dollars and maybe they gave
an actual gift.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Yes, that's that's a that's another part of the story,
that that they didn't say that they didn't receive gifts
as well as cash. They may have received gifts, they
were just relying on the cash.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Yeah, well that's that's their own fault. That's a mistake.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
You know, you're always going to be uh disappointed. But
if they did, if they gave a gift, where was
the gift.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Well, they got the gifts. I think they got gifts.
I think they left that part out. I don't think
they didn't get any gifts. I think that the cash
is the main thing. They didn't get as much cash, right.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Like a gravy boat, like anyway exactly, even if you
return it to wherever, you.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Know, it's like, honey, we're going over a rule. But
take that gravy boat with us.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
By the way, no one wants gifts, you know, if
they register for something, yes, but other than that, yeah,
don't that. Don't do it.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Where the new trends make a lot of sense to me,
because you're right, most people don't want gifts. So now
you do the online thing, or you're just Venmo money
or Venmo gifts, or.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
They just tell you where to go to make donations.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
So they just do what they want you to do.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
They need money. They're starting a new life.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Okay, when I swear you're going to do that, aren't
you You're gonna Hey, you get right.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Yeah, I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
That it's coming. Don't worry.
Speaker 4 (11:21):
Keep checking out a great idea. Let's go to Gina.
She's in den I'm good morning, Gina. Hi.
Speaker 11 (11:27):
So I grew up in New York and I'm obviously Italian. So, uh,
we give money. I don't know who gives gravy boats
and lenox I mean that's not you know, why would
you want that? I mean? But anyway, uh, you know,
and as Italians we sit down with the money bag
(11:49):
at the end of the day and go through it.
And you know, if Uncle Joe only gave fifty dollars.
Uncle Joe will never be seen or invited to anything again.
So and that's the way I think it should be.
And I think ten thousand dollars cash on fifty thousand
that you paid for the wedding is just really sad
(12:12):
and it says something about you know, and I don't
know if that tradition is here, but Italians give money, yeah,
you know, and it's a pretty big deal, like how.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Much you give.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Let's go to Stevie's and Lawrence it's our first guy.
I think Steve good morning.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
So we had seventy people come to Fort Lauderdal, and
so we didn't really expect many gifts because just the
fact that they were paying to go down there and
everyone had a rent a suit or address, and we
just didn't expect it. So we just wanted everybody to
come to have a good time.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Yeah. I like that.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah, you're right, that's what it should be about, having
a good time, yeah, with friends and loved ones.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
But more importantly, which Billy would be more interested in,
is we met ten years ago when she was twenty
one and I was forty.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Oh, so a lot of people single out there in
the dating world going on first dates, and a big
question is what do you wear on a first date?
This was our number three moment from this week.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Okay, what to wear? What not to wear on a
first date?
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Lisa, You've got a list, Well, what is the best
thing to wear on a first date? Because a lot
of people out there, I'm sure are thinking about going
on a date, or they're going on a first date.
They're calling their friends saying what should I wear?
Speaker 4 (13:24):
So?
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Do you dress sexy? Do you play it safe? Do
you go right from work? And you don't care? So
we have a list of colors that they say are
very powerful on first dates. They say that if you
wear green, it means you're confident. If you wear blue,
it means it's safe, you're going to like Billy, you
always wear blue. That's like a feeling of safety. So
(13:47):
if somebody is showing up in blue, Wait a.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Minute, hold on, do you feel safe next to Bill?
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Is I?
Speaker 9 (13:51):
Do I always feel safe?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Okay? Well, yeah, if someone came in and was trying
to harm you and Bill was next to you, are
you confident that he would protect you?
Speaker 1 (13:59):
I would probably, I think so, But I would call
you first, I think you Okay, No, I'm just saying
I love you. Purple is considered the color of connection,
and red always makes you feel more attractive. I don't
think so res not my color, but they're just saying
it's it's a strong choice.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Isn't Red also the color that they make the carpets
and the casinos because it makes you spend more money.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
It does.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
It kind of like gets you a little bit more.
I don't know what, Like the word.
Speaker 7 (14:28):
Is pappy or something endorphins, Yes, because doorphins.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Yeah, it makes you want to sit there and just
spend all your money.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Wow, there's a lot of red in this building. Yeah,
or ihearts sometime.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Logost So what do you think is the is the
correct the appropriate thing to wear?
Speaker 1 (14:45):
So here's my one thing. Wear something that you're comfortable in.
Don't wear something that you've never worn before because it
might not fit you, right, It might make you sweat
because you're already nervous.
Speaker 7 (14:58):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So where like you're if you've got a favorite pair
of jeans or something like that that you know fits
you well, you look great in, that would be my
go to because you're gonna feel confident because you already
know that you look good in them.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
But how about the whole underdressed versus overdressed thing?
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Well, I think you could. I think that, you know,
I think dressing a little bit too like sexy might
not be the way to go.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
I detiends on where the date is.
Speaker 7 (15:22):
But I feel like you're always good with like cute
jeans in a body suit or a cute top like
I don't think you need to be wearing like you know,
I mean deck.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
I wore a body suit my first date.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Well that's a good tip about wearing something you've worn before,
so you don't, you know, get hot and sweat, because
infamously Billy went on a first date when he was
single and the woman was wearing something that was making
her sweat. Remember that? Oh yeah, so that's a big one.
And he was turned off, you know, he wasn't didn't
kind of turned off by it.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
So what is wrong with you? It's a story, Really,
I didn't know it was a story. Is that different
than the girl that has sweaty hand? The same girl?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
All right?
Speaker 2 (16:02):
I don't know where.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Something comes right that, you know?
Speaker 9 (16:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Sure, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
We don't want to be too revealing, right, that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
To again, it's it's what you want to put off, right, Like,
what's the vibe you're sending?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Okay, Winny, what's the vibe I'm sending?
Speaker 3 (16:20):
I would wear jeans in a bodysuit putting while we're going.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
That's your uniform.
Speaker 6 (16:26):
I love the way it looks.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
I love it.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
It's all put together. It's casual, but it's it's cute.
It's not too dressy. But it's not like you're not
like slump. You know, you don't a slob. I can't
speak right now.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
What about yoga pants?
Speaker 4 (16:38):
No, no, it depends to wear the first date.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
No no, no, no, okay.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
If someone showed up wearing yoga pants on your first date.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Well there's a certain that you can dress on yoga pants. No, no, no,
what is it?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Twenty eleven pants?
Speaker 3 (16:57):
She brings her.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Ugs to I love a good pair of First pick
would be hot pants. Hop ooh. We are inching our
way to the number one moment, but we gotta get
to number two first. It's justin here. Welcome back. Everybody
in number two. Well goes with number three right. Topic
time happens every morning on the Billy and Lisa show
at seven forty, different topic every day. This one was
(17:20):
a crazy one. Every time we talk about dating, it
always is first dates? What do you wear? What do
you don't wear? And that turned into some crazy first
date nightmare stories. Number two.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Jackie's actually calling in from Rhode Island, the beautiful state
of Rhode Island. Good morning Jackie, Good morning Billy. So
what do you think if you had a first date nightmare?
Speaker 13 (17:42):
Actually quite the opposite. How you get all stressed and
all you know, anxiety ridden, ready for the first date.
And I did that a bunch of times, you know,
serial dater, and I got sick of it, and I said,
I'm not doing anymore. I'm not getting dressed, I'm not
getting dulled up. I'm just gonna be me. And I
(18:02):
wore the dreaded yoga pants.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Oh you did the yoga pants.
Speaker 13 (18:06):
Okay, yeah, I did the yoga pants. And I had
him to come over with some Chinese food. We watched
some Bob Ross and I didn't didn't do anything special,
and nine years later we're still together, married, two kids.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I love that Bob Ross the painter.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Okay, wait a minute, that sounds like a hell of
a day. I'm more interested in this story. So it
was a first date and you had them over to
your place.
Speaker 13 (18:33):
Yeah, yeah, we were talking for a while online, so
I had He honestly thought that I was gonna be
five guys in a pitfall. So it's kind of very uh,
pretty happy that I would end up reading who I
said I was.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
And I love that yees be comfortable, be yourself and
that's what you said.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Yeah, And you know what, Bob Ross, what's more calmon
than that.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
You just paint a bigger treat right over the top.
Speaker 6 (18:59):
We don't make mys.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
We have happy accidents, and you have a brand new,
beautiful tree.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
And she wore yoga pants, which I am all for,
or when he seems to be against the yoga pants.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
I'm all for the yoga pants.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Really, why Hey, what the heck is wrong with yoga
pants and ugs?
Speaker 10 (19:18):
I'm wearing it right now.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
So cheot that. And it reminds me when I was
in high school.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
It was the uniform of every girl in high school.
It was yoga pants from Pink with the big ugs
that you were like sweuching around in a sweatshirt. And
as a grown woman, leggings are different than yoga pants.
I think leggings are fine, not for a date like that,
but like, come on, yoga.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Pants, that's all man. I think that's gonna upset a
lot of girls. They love. My wife loves the yoga pants. Yeah,
nothing wrong with them.
Speaker 14 (19:47):
On my first date with my boyfriend, I wore a
high necked body suit, a long shacket, and like straight
skinny jeans. And to this day he makes fun of
me because he was like, you were hiding the goods.
You have assets and you didn't even show them off
on our first date. And I'm like, no, you have
to protect the goods the first date.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Woow, that's interesting.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Those are some words to live by to protect the goods.
Speaker 5 (20:12):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I must admit I'm a big fan of the shacket.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
What's a jacket?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
It's a lot. It looks like a shirt, but it's
you know you have one, it's over jacket, yes, and
it's usually like in flannel.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
I think they're very sexy.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yeah, all right, we speaking of speaking of men, Why
are we.
Speaker 15 (20:30):
Only talking about what women should wear on a first date?
Talk about what a man should wear.
Speaker 9 (20:36):
I think they need a lot more help than us.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Well, you know what, asking you shall receive.
Speaker 6 (20:40):
When it comes to first state.
Speaker 10 (20:42):
So I wear my uniform, speedout, an American flag bandana,
go USA.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
He's showing his all.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
Right, if that doesn't say sexy, what does?
Speaker 6 (20:54):
Do?
Speaker 2 (20:54):
We want to address the never ending him on a
talkbacks going at Winnie for the criticizing yoga pants. I
knew that was going to happen.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
When you want to be stuck in high school.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Go ahead, I'm telling pants are very popular. Yeah, yeah,
they're very angry.
Speaker 7 (21:09):
Okay, I'm sorry you feel that way, but I just
feel like it's an adult woman. It's not the first
date situation.
Speaker 15 (21:15):
Okay, that Winnie is trolling women for wearing yoga pants
when on her Instagram there are multiple videos of her
wearing the most obscene lazy outfits to work, including a
gray cutoff sweatshirt that looks like something Bill Belichick would
wear a football game.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
First date, I said, for I can't BLI I don't
know who that was, but she goes right, I didn't.
Speaker 7 (21:51):
Think you couldn't wear it ever, I said, for a date.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
Here's the thing on yoga pants. In my eyes, yoga
pants can never look bad.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I agree, right, I agree?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
I think Lisa well, I mean, what are we talking.
I have a pair of Lulu Lemons and I wear
them every weekend.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
What's the difference between leggings and yoga pants?
Speaker 7 (22:14):
I don't get Leggings are tight like to your like
to your body. Yoga pants are the ones that have
like the flap where they flap over. They're looser on
the bottom, they're like boot leg cut. Yeah, I ad
the bottom.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
All different types.
Speaker 7 (22:25):
Right, But leggings are more just like to your body.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
I love I wear them.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
I wear the I don't wear the boot cut one.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Yeah, a lot of girls do.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
When they look great.
Speaker 4 (22:35):
I'm all in with as am I right, I can't
possibly go wrong with them.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
Yeah, let's get back to these first dates.
Speaker 16 (22:43):
I've had many horrible first dates. Do you want to
talk about the guy that stood me up and then
re added me to say he's so sorry that his
friends deleted everything and that he was on his way
just to walk me from the parking garage to the
restaurant to say he needs to go to the bath,
just ditch me and never return. Or do you want
(23:03):
to talk about the guy who's only asterb you only
thing he could talk about was SpongeBob and then broke
out in the song in the middle of dinner.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Worse than I was expecting.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
There is no possible way this could not be the
number one moment. It's a doucy what up, guys, justin
here wrapping up the best of Billy and Lisa in

But we now literally have the hottest restaurant in the
world non intended, of.
Speaker 3 (24:39):

Him because he's really you know, blossoming him and blossoming
into who he is, you know, not only you know
obviously you know his career with you know, film and everything,
but all the different businesses that he's involved with.
Speaker 6 (25:14):

Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
Uh and it really is good. It's you know, it's

how many Wallburgers are there now?
Speaker 10 (25:28):

my own name apparently, so you know, I don't I'm.
Speaker 8 (25:34):
Not Yeah, I don't really want to, Johnny, I was
only kidding.
Speaker 10 (25:39):
Yeah, yeah, even though it's been a long summer for me,
you know, with the tour, you know, finishing.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Let's restart the whole segment. Jenny's about three two one.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Mark Wahlberg is in the studio, whether it's right, Hey, buddy,
how you doing?
Speaker 6 (25:52):

Speaker 10 (25:53):
Jenny's great, everything's good. Golf game is good.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
I'm good, you know, just Tom.
Speaker 10 (26:04):
Not as much as obviously when we're working together, and
Bridget's good.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Everybody's good. I hear Tom's put on a lot of weight. Yeah, okay, how.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
Many employ early for this I got, I planned, I planned,
I executed, did the whole thing, and this is what
I get.
Speaker 8 (26:25):
So how many employees now, dude, you're asking questions?
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Get the fun fact?
Speaker 10 (26:32):
I don't know. There's more more than I can count.
And we're so blessed with so many amazing people and
so many amazing franchisees and it just we're we're just
truly truly blessed.
Speaker 16 (26:42):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Alma in the Hangham Shipyard is really your baby. I mean,
there's wall Burgers and that's one thing, but Alma nov
is one of the finest restaurants in all of New England.
Speaker 6 (26:52):
Well, thank you, Verim. I appreciate that.
Speaker 10 (26:54):
We you know, we are so proud and you know,
being that being our original restaurant and we're so proud
of it and just the we want it to be
that place you can go to, you know, and you've
been there obviously, you've come out on your boat. And
when I think of that and the ability for people
to do that and come out and like they can take.
Speaker 6 (27:12):
The ferry out there, they can take your they.
Speaker 10 (27:14):
Can come on their boats stay overnight like you've done,
it's just amazing and and everybody's supportive and for us
to be able to be part of the community is
such a big thing and we just love it, absolutely
love it, and we we we get to make people happy.
That's our job, kind of like yours, except for you
know me, of course this morning, you know, because you
don't know, you don't know my name.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
You just don't know when I'm kidding, and you don't
even see I had lined up, you had it lined up. Yeah, yeah,
I've been out there a lot. And by the way,
hot tip, that's a good idea. You can take a
ferry right out of Boston. You'll be at Hangham Shipyard
on like twenty minutes.
Speaker 10 (27:50):
It's just like twenty minutes and it's like a little
vacation because you can literally come to the back door
of because it's right in the shipyard. So you can
walk right to Almanova, you can walk to Wallburg's, you
can want to the other restaurants.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
I'm shopping over there, lots.
Speaker 10 (28:02):
Of things, the movie theater, you can get you can
really kind of make a day of it, and it's great.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
So one of the other reasons you dropped by and
I really really really appreciate it, is that Jenny Johnson
and I are launching.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
A cookbook this week. It's already available on AM.
Speaker 6 (28:16):
You remember her name. That's good, that's a bonus.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Come on, buddy.
Speaker 6 (28:23):
So you I think this is going away. This is.
Speaker 10 (28:28):
Going when I see you on Wednesday night. Oh, I'm
gonna have well, we'll have fun with it.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
I know you're a nutcracker, so I can expect to
be you writing me on this for a while. So
you brought a dish, and this is the dish that
you feature in our.
Speaker 10 (28:41):
Cookbook box pansaired salmon with a Sicilian black rice and
a rubob vinigarette and there's a little salad of minted
cucumbers on top. So it's a little more seasonal, but
it's something that's a nice light dish.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
You can make it.
Speaker 10 (28:54):
For multiple people. It's easy to execute, and you can
stage it. You can make the right you can start
the rice two days before and kind of go through
everything and then it's and it's an easy execution.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
You actually made several of these dishes in our office.
Speaker 10 (29:08):
Yeah, so you know you've got this vast office here
with this great kitchen. You know, I was surprised. I mean,
the walking was bigger than the wasking we have a restaurant,
but yeah, we had a great spot and it was
something you know, we wanted. We, like I said, we
staged it. We started the rice you know, yesterday and
then we had everything together and then I prepped last night,
(29:29):
made the vineigarette, and then just easy execution this morning.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Now, why did you choose this dish for the cookbook?
Speaker 10 (29:36):
I thought it was a nice, like I said, that
nice seasonal thing. It's something that's a little bit different
for people. You know, you've got the vinigarrette, you've got
there's different cooking skills that you can kind of hone
doing it and learning how to, like I said, learning
how to stage things at home, because everybody talks about
it is meal prep, right, and when you when you're
trying to do your meal prep and stuff like that,
because if you're looking at Thanksgiving and these big meals
(29:58):
and Christmas and whatever holidays, you're feeding a large group
of people, large gathering. It's very very difficult and it's
daunting when you kind of think of it. And so
when you look at certain things and being able to
kind of plan things out and say, okay, I can
make this today, I can start this and peel these vegetables.
I can get myself closer because at the end of
(30:19):
the day, it's great to spend all of your time
in the kitchen, but you also want to spend time
with your guests and your family.
Speaker 15 (30:24):
Good point.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
And I have to say it looks really impressive. I mean,
it's a beautiful presentation.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
Your mark work really hard.
