Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's the best avilion Lisa in the Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hi guys, and welcome into the show on this jingle
ball weekend. I can't believe it. It is already here
tomorrow night at the Garden. It's gonna be a movie,
let me tell you. But when we get to all that,
I have your top five moments from this week on
the Billion Lisa Show. Let's get right into it. Number five.
This was back on Monday, the Kow Lun documentary came out,
so of course we got our buddy Bobby Wong on
(00:26):
talk about the documentary and also is the Kowloon closing.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Or what today's the day that Kyle Lun documentary drops.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
It was my father's dream to have a great restaurant
like this built. My mindset was always towards business, but
it never was to take over the business. It's a
passion that started helping my parents and it just screw
from there.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Yeah. That's Bobby Wong from the Kyle Lun, the owner,
well family owned Kyle Lun Route one in Saugu's famous place,
and he's on the phone right now. Good morning, Bobby,
Good morning Bailey.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
So Bobby, the kl Lun.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
When I think of the Kowloon, it's like I think
the original place where everybody knew your name, like you
and your entire family knew most of the people that
would come in every day and night, right right.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Well, we do have a loyal following, so we've been
fortunate with that and having family members working every day there,
you get to know them. You probably see them more
than you see your family, so in some cases, especially
with employees, but you know, we've been fortunate to have
people that really enjoyed dining at the restaurant over the years,
(01:41):
and we'll be on our seventy fifth year coming up
next year.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Well, one of the most comforting things about the Colllun Bobby,
is that most of the family works there and you
guys are always there.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Yeah, it's a job. It's hands on, especially being a
family restaurant and we run it's not there's not really
a lot of corporate structure, so everybody does everything. And
we've been doing it since we were little kids. So
we did it as a love for our parents and
they kind of grew and it gets uh, it becomes
(02:14):
part of your life.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Now. Who whose idea was the documentary and how did
it happen?
Speaker 5 (02:21):
It's we. We didn't search out for anybody to do this.
It was actually somebody that reached through email and her
name was Mona Mona, and she had done some projects
I think with Netflix before as well as other other
documentaries that she had done, and she reached out and
(02:42):
she thought that column would be a fun documentary and
interesting documentary to do. So she reached out and they
brought their crew here, great crew, and they spent quite
a bit of time. As you know, probably on TV
this most of the things don't get on on that
gets it actually gets on the cutting. Oh yeah, it
gets on the screen. Well, so think we're here a
(03:04):
long time. And they they did some great shots. It
was it was actually a you know, very nice that
they reached out to us to do this.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Well, last night you sent me the doc uh to
my email and I'm watching it and out of nowhere,
my lifelong friend Dukie is in the documentary.
Speaker 6 (03:24):
I think we have a clip.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
It's a situation. It's been going off for decades.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
People like herself.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
We need this place. Wow, how about that? He was
just here Friday. I think the best thing I ever
mentioned it.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
I know, of course he was at the bar.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
I got to tell you something. He is your biggest
fan of the Kowloon. Every single holiday, every single birthday, celebration, anything,
they go to the Kowloon. Everything happens at the Kowloon.
And I don't know if you realize this, but there's
a really popular singer, Charlie Booth, and we had him
in studio one day and he was raving about the cologne.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
I love the cologne too. I love how big it is.
The waiters and waitresses. Oh sorry, servers, it's twenty seven teens.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
They don't people wait people, They don't talk to you
when you're like, We're at a table for six last
night and the guy just comes over and goes.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
And my sister goes, okay, I guess I what's your
favorite drink? And he goes, what do you want?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (04:30):
Well, you know what.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
It's like a people factory there. I mean, yeah, no idea.
I bet it was crowded because I was very crowded.
But you know what, no one gave a rats ass
that I was there.
Speaker 7 (04:39):
Right.
Speaker 6 (04:42):
Do you remember.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Charlie being their body?
Speaker 8 (04:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (04:46):
Yeah, he was there, but probably none of my staff
recognizes him. I don't know what they don't listen to
that music. I don't know, but.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It's funny because for years and years, the wrestlers always
came to the if there was a big wrestling card
to the TV Garden or even the old Boston Garden,
they would all leave the show at the end of
the night and they'd go to the coloon.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
When did that start?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
And how?
Speaker 5 (05:12):
I don't know. My brother Andy, he's the wrestling bug,
and I have to keep telling him it's nuts, it's
not real, and he doesn't believe me. He gets real
end up fighting about it. But they started coming in
after the show and he just gravitates to those guys
and I mean people. It's amazing how they just started
coming after every show. And then we had the Rock
(05:33):
who was part of that in that during that stage
where he was wrestling, he would come in with the group.
And then it was John Cena And so Andy has
these guys phone numbers and he just calls them anytime.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Well's so many money down.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Then he gets the back room still save for them.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Bobby, it's so funny you just said that you couldn't
convince Andy that wrestling wasn't real. When I used to
drive into Kiss at four o'clock in the morning. There
used to be a dunkin Donuts on Root sixteen. As
I headed in, and I ran into Andy a few
times at four o'clock in the morning. I'll say, what
the hell are you doing here at four in the
morning because he was at the colun watching the wrestling
(06:10):
matches until three in the morning because he couldn't get.
Speaker 9 (06:13):
To the garden.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
That's how crazy it is. But it's a lot of fun.
He met a lot a lot of great people too.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
So okay, Bobby, is the coloun really closing, because I've
never seen the coloon more since you announced it it
was closing.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Well, we're behind schedule, let's put it that way.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
But usually people are behind schedule building a restaurant, you're
behind schedule closing it.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
I know we're behind scheduled, but we're not kind of
closed permanent. We're actually going to downside. And you know,
I don't think I could stop doing doing this for
some reason. And you know, we have a lot of
great people that have been working for us, and I
can't put them out in the streets. So then they're
going to be part on this. I'm going to make
them all part of there.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
It's awesome.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
That's the kind of guy he is. That's the kind
of family. The wrong family is Bobby. Congratulations on the documentary.
Thank We're going to bring the whole show in real soon.

countdown here. Number three Moment of the week goes to
one of our topic times about proposals, good ones, weird ones,
and this came from Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco getting
(13:26):
engaged in him buying her taco bell for the engagement.
Number three Kristen, where are you.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Calling from from Hampstead, New Hampshire.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So what have you got for It's good or.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Bad or weird?
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Amazing? So I was just calling in because I was
listening to Justin about his proposal to his wife. And
my husband proposed to me on Christmas Eve, it's my
favorite holiday, favorite time of year in general. So I
know it's kind of taboo for some people, but he
brought me to his childhood church was all decorated for
(14:01):
Christmas and just beautiful. He played three times a lady
on the piano and then got down on one knee
and proposed. And it just makes the season even that
much more special. Every year did the.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Church did the church have a piano or did he
bring one?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Nope, they had one.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Okay, that would have been extra special. That's much cooler
than me and my underwear.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
Wow, that's so sweet.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Yeah, but so yeah, and you loved that it was
on Christmas Eve because when he hates people that proposed.
Speaker 10 (14:33):
If it works for you, Kristin, and that was beautiful
that he played that song for you.
Speaker 6 (14:36):
That's a very good song, lovely song.
Speaker 13 (14:38):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I can't understand where it was taboo for some people,
but again for me, like Christmas is my favorite holiday,
so it just it meant so much to me.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
Justin, do you have the song for Christian?
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I'm sorry, Christin, I don't. Okay, I thought would bring
her back.
Speaker 10 (14:55):
Okay, Justin hate Billy tries to produce from the other
side the mic like, Billy, can you pull it up
for her?
Speaker 9 (15:03):
No, not even three times three times?
Speaker 6 (15:05):
A lady once twice, three times.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
It's well, yeah, it's an older song. Yeah, no, I'll
handle it. It's a big deal.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Let's go to Deborah, Debra, where are you calling from?
Speaker 8 (15:21):
Hi?
Speaker 14 (15:21):
Good morning and over.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Okay, So what have you got for us?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Proposal?
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Were you proposed to?
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Well?
Speaker 14 (15:29):
Kind of sort of yes and no. So I was
nineteen when I first met my husband. At twenty four
years old, after waiting like five years, I'm like, you
know what, take stay off work.
Speaker 8 (15:38):
We're going into the Jewels building.
Speaker 14 (15:39):
We went into the first door, the first ring I saw.
I'm like, dare it is? Take it out, put it
on my hands, give me your credit card. And then
we got married when I was twenty eight.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
So that was my pay I think that that much.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
No, that's not one of the best ones, okay.
Speaker 14 (15:55):
And then I was married for twenty three years, divorced,
and five years ago I met now boyfriend and I said,
you know, I'm giving you five years, not waiting five years,
and I'm leaving. Then last year, on Christmas Eve, the
last gift, you know, was the ring.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Well, look at that another fALS on Christmas Eve?
Speaker 10 (16:14):
All right, right, typically doesn't work out when the woman
has to go buy her own ring.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
Well, very true.
Speaker 10 (16:20):
Like if you don't want to go pick out the
ring and buy it and surprise me, I don't think
you want to marry me.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Yeah, And if you pick out the ring and you're
the guy and then you turn to the woman and
say can I have your credit card? That's really not
a good purpose.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
A four year engagement. I just don't think he.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
Was I just I think he was ready.
Speaker 6 (16:36):
I don't think I'm surprised there what their marriage lasted
twenty years?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
My wife smashed her ring. It's gone the Yeah, her
ring is ruined. She doesn't know how she did it.
She must have smashed it on something. But yeah, oh yeah,
it is what it is.
Speaker 9 (16:49):
So did she lose the diamond?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Yeah, the diamond fell out. So she looked one day.
She didn't know what happened, and it was oh my god,
was it insure?
Speaker 13 (16:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (16:58):
Is it on your homeowners insurance?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
No, it's just the loss.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
So she ran anymore.
Speaker 10 (17:05):
Okay, well, so much for that beautiful Christmas proposal.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
You know what I should do? I need I need
to get our new ring. What I need to do?
You know, Christmas? I'll sing a song.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
You you got it, kristin there it is okay, let's
go to Wendy. Wendy where you call from? I'm sure, okay, Wendy,
what have you got? Proposal?
Speaker 6 (17:29):
Good?
Speaker 8 (17:29):
Bad?
Speaker 7 (17:30):
Well to me, it was good for some people. They
might have been like, oh, real romantic. But when I
was pregnant with my first daughter, my ex left and so,
you know, as I was going to appointments and stuff
with no ring on my finger, I always felt like
people were judging me. And so fast forward four years
and I was pregnant and I had expressed to my
(17:52):
you know then boyfriend that how I had felt to
read my first pregnancy. So the day of our first
appointment with my OB we were getting ready to go
and I turned around in the kitchen and he was
down on one knee and he had made sure that
I didn't feel judged anymore because I had the ring
on my finger. Sweet years later, we're still happily married.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Absolutely, very thoughtful.
Speaker 10 (18:15):
It's simple, it's private, and he thought about that right
in the kitchen.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Way again in that kitchens.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Let's go to Sarah. Next, Sarah, give us a good one.
Speaker 15 (18:27):
Go Hi.
Speaker 8 (18:30):
So my now husband this was three years ago, so
twenty twenty one. Every Christmas we do a secret Santa
swap with his family, and so the last gift was
nowhere to be found, and my husband to be her
husband now was looking around the tree and I was
not facing him, and she's like, oh, I found it here,
(18:51):
And so I turned around and he was down on
one knee in front of the tree, and he proposed
in front of his whole family, which was really special.
So that was that was my engageing story. And we
just had our first child two years ago.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
So I like that one.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
I'm not a big fan of having people around when
you proposed, but.
Speaker 6 (19:09):
This one works like that.
Speaker 9 (19:11):
Yeah, the question I was.
Speaker 6 (19:13):
Thinking the same thing.
Speaker 10 (19:14):
Yeah, I'm glad you said it doesn't like any would
you know what? You say it out and I don't
want to propose. I'm not gonna be picky about how
you do it. How about that?
Speaker 5 (19:23):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
You know what.
Speaker 10 (19:25):
My idea, it will be just me and my person
and either like like a private dinner or like even
at the house, but like you know, you do the
whole decorating thing you do, the flowers you do, like
the lights, like it but private and like no one
there and just no holiday.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
What are the lights for?
Speaker 6 (19:44):
Like you know if you like to.
Speaker 10 (19:45):
Marry me lights or just like it's all decorated the room.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Okay, Number two moments from this week almost made number one,
but not quite. This came from the Salem, New Hampshire
Facebook page. That's where I live and Salem, New Amshire
in a fight over a giant skeleton in this person's
yard and someone who is not happy about it. We
got the owner of the skeleton on the line. Number two.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
There is controversy in your town of Salem, New Hampshire
with these crazy, these wacky Facebook groups.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Well, first of all, I gotta say the Salem Facebook group,
the town group, is really good. It's moderated very well.
I don't have many complaints about it. There's much worse
than that one. But I will say this past weekend
I was on there and I saw someone post the
woman that you know, she has a giant skeleton in
her front yard. It's dressed as Santa. She's one of
(20:38):
these people that leaves it up all year round, I assume.
And she got an anonymous letter from a neighbor saying
enough is enough, take it down. It's ugly enough. We
don't want to see the skeleton. Oh, and of course
the comments lit up, like who is this Karen to
leave an anonymous letter? Yeah, and we talked about it
yesterday and they she reached out to us and wants
to come on and tell her side of the story.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Oh, we got her on the phone.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Now go to Cat and Sail in the Hampshire.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Hey Cat, Hi, everyone, Hey Katkat, talk directly into the
phone if you can. We're having trouble hearing you. How
you doing, Kat, I'm good?
Speaker 13 (21:11):
How are you guys?
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Good?
Speaker 3 (21:13):
So what form of dress is the skeleton in as
we speak this morning? What's the update?
Speaker 13 (21:19):
He is currently in a Santa suit with a big
white puffy beard. And I have the two skeleton dogs
dressed up as reindeers.
Speaker 9 (21:28):
Oh this is so festive. I love it.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Now were the dogs the last minute addition? Was this
your way getting back at the person in the face
grip book group?
Speaker 13 (21:38):
No, they were part of the Halloween setup that we
had for this past Halloween and we just kind of
kept on with it.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Okay, so when did this controversy with the other person
on the face Grip group.
Speaker 13 (21:52):
Start Well sat came up. We actually got a letter
in the mail. It was mailed through USPS. They took
the time to type the letter up, put a post
on it, a postage stamp on it, and send it
directly to us. Showed up Saturday and from there we
(22:15):
decided game on.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
All right, I have the letter here.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Okay, wyn't you read the letter? Justin?
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Go ahead?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Enough is enough? Please take down that god awful, ugly
skeleton and dogs from your lawn. Don't care what book
it comes from. It's hideous and past its time. Take
it down.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Hey, cat, you want my information, you want my advice? Sure,
get another skeleton, Yes, add to them. Yeah, get to them,
by the way, when you're done with that skeleton. Justin's
been trying to get one for like four years.
Speaker 13 (22:46):
But yeah, they're so popular it's it's almost like a
Black Friday sale. You got to like be at home
depot ready to go as soon as they put them out,
because we've been trying to get a second one for
almost two or three years now, and they're just so popular.
Everybody wants one.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Now.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Have you had any verbal contact with this person who
actually sent you a letter. No, so you've had no
desire to reach out to that person.
Speaker 13 (23:15):
If we knew who it was, maybe, But then the
letter came anonymously, no return postage, no nothing.
Speaker 9 (23:22):
Yeah, you just do You don't worry about this other person.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
This is a crazy Karen. This is what they do
for a living.
Speaker 13 (23:29):
Yeah. And once we posted it between my personal Facebook
page and the Town of Salem's page, we have ninety
nine percent of everybody that's come back absolutely loves it. Okay,
I've had moms reach out and say, hey, we drive
by the house with the kids two three times a
day just so the kids can see it. Both posts.
(23:51):
We're up to I think about twelve or thirteen hundred
likes and over five or six hundred comments that everyone
just appbsolutely loves it and says, hey, do you and
keep going.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Well, that's Lisa Dunovan and she's the voice of reason,
and she says, do.
Speaker 9 (24:08):
You anchor that thing down extra hard?
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Yeah for today?
Speaker 5 (24:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Do you have a ring cam?
Speaker 9 (24:14):
Yeah, very windy do yeah, keep.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
The ring cam on twenty four to seven because in
case this crazy person comes and tries to feel the
skeleton and like Lisa said, tonight, it could be blown
away anyway and that's the end of the story.
Speaker 13 (24:26):
Oh yeah, down, he's like Justin said, he's been up
for the last almost year and a half. So so far,
so good. He's made it through last winter with the
snow and this summer, so he's doing well.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
He'll be out, he'll be fine. And Kat, you know,
this is what we say to that person that sent
the letter. It costs nothing. Listen closely. It costs nothing
to wake up in the morning and mind your business. Yeah,
zero zero free ninety nine.
Speaker 6 (24:54):
Hey, I gotta know, what.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Are you gonna do with the skeleton for Easter? What's
the outfit?
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Uh?
Speaker 13 (24:59):
Most like a bunny costume? Will go get him some ears.
And this is so playful.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
And the dogs can be bunnies. The dogs can be
little bunnies.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Yeah. And you know what she's getting her money's worth
on the skeleton sure year round. Yeah wow, all right, cat,
keep up the fight, the good fight. As we say,
your yard, your business.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Okay, here we go. Number one moment from the Billy
and Lisa Show this week. Thank you so much for
joining on this jingle ball weekend. Don't forget the show's
tomorrow night. It is sold out. You can follow kiss
wan to Wait on Instagram kiss went await dot com
watch all the backstage interviews. Billy and I will be
doing a live countdown featuring interviews with all the jingle
ball artists, So make sure if you're not going to
(25:41):
the show, you check in on social or online. And
without further ado, your number one moment goes to Mel Robbins,
who we had in studio last month. She's doing Lisa's
book Club in January and she had quite the moment
with Oprah this week. Love this number one.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Mel Robins came into our studio. She sat right across
from you LESA just what five weeks ago or.
Speaker 9 (26:04):
So right because we had a big announcement.
Speaker 11 (26:07):
She has a new book coming out called The Let
Them Theory, and we made the announcement together that she
is doing Lisa's book Club January twenty second.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Wow, it'll be the first of Lisa's book Club event
of twenty twenty five exactly. So yesterday I'm sitting around
the house and I said, oh, let me check Instagram.
I'd like to check everybody's Instagram, see what's going on
and I follow Mel Robbins because of you, Lisa. And
there's Mel Robins sitting there alone in a room, extremely
emotional because she's going to be meeting Oprah in less
(26:37):
than an hour.
Speaker 15 (26:38):
Here it was in lessen an hour, I'm going to
be meeting Oprah and I'm going to sit down with
her and taught her about my life's work, which is
the left them theory in the five second rule. And
I'm just reflecting on the gravity of this moment and
(27:00):
how far I've come and how much I've changed in
the last fifteen years, and how I really have become
a much better version of myself and become a better person,
a better mom, a better spouse, a better friend.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
So that was Mel alone at her hotel room. Okay,
And that was the very first post I had seen.
And then all of a.
Speaker 9 (27:23):
Sudden, I love Mel becus. You've had curlers in her hair.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Yes, I noticed that to a giant curler for her. Thanks.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
And then a few minutes later there was another post
and Mel was arriving at Oprah's house I think, yes,
on the lawn and she was going to do Oprah's podcast,
and one of the first things she did on the
podcast was described the book to Oprah, here's.
Speaker 16 (27:44):
That this changed my marriage, It changed my parenting, It
changed my relationship with how I am at work. The
let them theory is going to make space for change
to happen because people need to feel like changing is
their idea. People only change, Oprah, when they are ready
to do the work to change.
Speaker 11 (28:05):
It's true, and this gives you the power to do
it because you're basically telling people you do you and
if you're you isn't what I need and what I want,
then I'm not gonna do you anymore.
Speaker 6 (28:15):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
I need to do more of that in life.
Speaker 11 (28:21):
It's like she boils it down to very simple terms,
but it's so true and if you look at it
like that, you can really make some tough decisions for yourself.
But the cool thing is is that when Mel came
in we announced the book club, It's sold out in
minutes and we're talking thousands of people. This is incredible, incredible.
(28:41):
She's incredible, and I love her story. She really struggled
for a while. She's so passionate about helping people. She's
been through it. She knows how to get herself out
of bed and she's funny and I just love her
and I'm so excited.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
So how about this. Now you have Oprah and Mel
Robbins face to face right on the podcast, and Oprah
tells Mel Robbins the book changed her life.
Speaker 12 (29:06):
Okay, so let me say this. I have over the
years read probably thousands of books, and this is by
far just one of the best self helped books I've
ever read. It is right up there with all the greats,
(29:31):
all the greats, and the reason it is I think
it's a life changer. It's life altering for anybody who
reads it because it's your personal story.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
It's like you're speaking into.
Speaker 12 (29:42):
Our ear, and it comes with your knowledge and your
acknowledgement of the mistakes that you have made, and it
just is there to set people free. Yes, that's what
you've done.
Speaker 15 (30:01):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
That's what you did. Thank you.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
It's incredible. It's incredible.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
I couldn't believe.
Speaker 12 (30:06):
It, page after page after page after page.
Speaker 7 (30:08):
Yes, yes, I yes, I believe it.
Speaker 12 (30:10):
I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
And it's so simple.
Speaker 12 (30:14):
You know, what I love about it is is that
you were saying in these pages everything I was trying
to say for twenty five years, day after day after
day after day after day after.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Day, now imagined this from most people, it's enough to
meet Oprah. She's sitting with Oprah and she changed Oprah's
whole life with her book.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
It's such high praise coming from Oprah.
Speaker 9 (30:36):
Oh yeah, I mean it's the ultimate.
Speaker 10 (30:39):
And forh Oprah's seventy years old, she's a billionaire, she's
one of the most amazing women in media.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
And she's telling Mel Robbins that she changed her life.
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
She flew Mel Robbins to her house to be on
the podcast. She wanted Mel Robbins on the podcast. And Lisa,
you've got her on the book club.
Speaker 11 (30:54):
Yeah, now, well, I mean Mel's from here. Yeah, I've
known Mel. I've known of me for twenty years. Yeah,
And it's real And it's just so cool that she
is doing the book club. I'm overwhelmed.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
And what are the odds on this day that we're
talking about Mel Robbins and Oprah. Oprah is in Boston
today for a conference right justin.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I'm going to the conference for women this morning.
Speaker 13 (31:19):
And I've never been.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
More excited to be able to say that it's been
in the same room as Oprah.
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Yeah, I'm actually jealous. I wish I was going. I
didn't know about it, and.
Speaker 9 (31:30):
It happens every year.
Speaker 11 (31:31):
They usually have some incredible speakers. But yeah, so she's
in town.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
Now, she's the keynote speaker. Kaitlyn Clark is in town
for it as well. But yeah, just a great story.
I just got chills again. I got chills yesterday when
I saw mel on the floor. She was on the
floor crying with the rollers in their hair.
Speaker 9 (31:48):
I I just love her.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
So let me ask you a question. So the next
time that Winnie gets on my nerves, Yeah, can I
say to myself let them, Yes, you should be saying
that I can apply it.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
Yeah, just let me.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
And then you follow it up with let me. Let
me just turn to Winnie and say I'm not doing you.
Please don't.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
I don't know, especially from Lisa
Speaker 9 (32:12):
I'm not going to do you any
It's the best avilion Lisa in the Morning.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hi guys, and welcome into the show on this jingle
ball weekend. I can't believe it. It is already here
tomorrow night at the Garden. It's gonna be a movie,
let me tell you. But when we get to all that,
I have your top five moments from this week on
the Billion Lisa Show. Let's get right into it. Number five.
This was back on Monday, the Kow Lun documentary came out,
so of course we got our buddy Bobby Wong on
(00:26):
talk about the documentary and also is the Kowloon closing.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Or what today's the day that Kyle Lun documentary drops.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
It was my father's dream to have a great restaurant
like this built. My mindset was always towards business, but
it never was to take over the business. It's a
passion that started helping my parents and it just screw
from there.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Yeah. That's Bobby Wong from the Kyle Lun, the owner,
well family owned Kyle Lun Route one in Saugu's famous place,
and he's on the phone right now. Good morning, Bobby,
Good morning Bailey.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
So Bobby, the kl Lun.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
When I think of the Kowloon, it's like I think
the original place where everybody knew your name, like you
and your entire family knew most of the people that
would come in every day and night, right right.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Well, we do have a loyal following, so we've been
fortunate with that and having family members working every day there,
you get to know them. You probably see them more
than you see your family, so in some cases, especially
with employees, but you know, we've been fortunate to have
people that really enjoyed dining at the restaurant over the years,
(01:41):
and we'll be on our seventy fifth year coming up
next year.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Well, one of the most comforting things about the Colllun Bobby,
is that most of the family works there and you
guys are always there.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Yeah, it's a job. It's hands on, especially being a
family restaurant and we run it's not there's not really
a lot of corporate structure, so everybody does everything. And
we've been doing it since we were little kids. So
we did it as a love for our parents and
they kind of grew and it gets uh, it becomes
(02:14):
part of your life.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Now. Who whose idea was the documentary and how did
it happen?
Speaker 5 (02:21):
It's we. We didn't search out for anybody to do this.
It was actually somebody that reached through email and her
name was Mona Mona, and she had done some projects
I think with Netflix before as well as other other
documentaries that she had done, and she reached out and
(02:42):
she thought that column would be a fun documentary and
interesting documentary to do. So she reached out and they
brought their crew here, great crew, and they spent quite
a bit of time. As you know, probably on TV
this most of the things don't get on on that
gets it actually gets on the cutting. Oh yeah, it
gets on the screen. Well, so think we're here a
(03:04):
long time. And they they did some great shots. It
was it was actually a you know, very nice that
they reached out to us to do this.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Well, last night you sent me the doc uh to
my email and I'm watching it and out of nowhere,
my lifelong friend Dukie is in the documentary.
Speaker 6 (03:24):
I think we have a clip.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
It's a situation. It's been going off for decades.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
People like herself.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
We need this place. Wow, how about that? He was
just here Friday. I think the best thing I ever
mentioned it.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
I know, of course he was at the bar.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
I got to tell you something. He is your biggest
fan of the Kowloon. Every single holiday, every single birthday, celebration, anything,
they go to the Kowloon. Everything happens at the Kowloon.
And I don't know if you realize this, but there's
a really popular singer, Charlie Booth, and we had him
in studio one day and he was raving about the cologne.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
I love the cologne too. I love how big it is.
The waiters and waitresses. Oh sorry, servers, it's twenty seven teens.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
They don't people wait people, They don't talk to you
when you're like, We're at a table for six last
night and the guy just comes over and goes.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
And my sister goes, okay, I guess I what's your
favorite drink? And he goes, what do you want?
Speaker 3 (04:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (04:30):
Well, you know what.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
It's like a people factory there. I mean, yeah, no idea.
I bet it was crowded because I was very crowded.
But you know what, no one gave a rats ass
that I was there.
Speaker 7 (04:39):
Right.
Speaker 6 (04:42):
Do you remember.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Charlie being their body?
Speaker 8 (04:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (04:46):
Yeah, he was there, but probably none of my staff
recognizes him. I don't know what they don't listen to
that music. I don't know, but.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It's funny because for years and years, the wrestlers always
came to the if there was a big wrestling card
to the TV Garden or even the old Boston Garden,
they would all leave the show at the end of
the night and they'd go to the coloon.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
When did that start?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
And how?
Speaker 5 (05:12):
I don't know. My brother Andy, he's the wrestling bug,
and I have to keep telling him it's nuts, it's
not real, and he doesn't believe me. He gets real
end up fighting about it. But they started coming in
after the show and he just gravitates to those guys
and I mean people. It's amazing how they just started
coming after every show. And then we had the Rock
(05:33):
who was part of that in that during that stage
where he was wrestling, he would come in with the group.
And then it was John Cena And so Andy has
these guys phone numbers and he just calls them anytime.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
Well's so many money down.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Then he gets the back room still save for them.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Bobby, it's so funny you just said that you couldn't
convince Andy that wrestling wasn't real. When I used to
drive into Kiss at four o'clock in the morning. There
used to be a dunkin Donuts on Root sixteen. As
I headed in, and I ran into Andy a few
times at four o'clock in the morning. I'll say, what
the hell are you doing here at four in the
morning because he was at the colun watching the wrestling
(06:10):
matches until three in the morning because he couldn't get.
Speaker 9 (06:13):
To the garden.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
That's how crazy it is. But it's a lot of fun.
He met a lot a lot of great people too.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
So okay, Bobby, is the coloun really closing, because I've
never seen the coloon more since you announced it it
was closing.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Well, we're behind schedule, let's put it that way.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
But usually people are behind schedule building a restaurant, you're
behind schedule closing it.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
I know we're behind scheduled, but we're not kind of
closed permanent. We're actually going to downside. And you know,
I don't think I could stop doing doing this for
some reason. And you know, we have a lot of
great people that have been working for us, and I
can't put them out in the streets. So then they're
going to be part on this. I'm going to make
them all part of there.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
It's awesome.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
That's the kind of guy he is. That's the kind
of family. The wrong family is Bobby. Congratulations on the documentary.
Thank We're going to bring the whole show in real soon.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Where can we see it? All right?
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Thank you very before we go, he doesn't know, watch me, Bobby.
Where do we get the documentary?
Speaker 5 (07:13):
It's on vimeo? V im EO. I guess it was
a staff pick. I guess when we were in a
lot of these film festivals and we've got a lot
of we didn't win any Academy of Water.

countdown here. Number three Moment of the week goes to
one of our topic times about proposals, good ones, weird ones,
and this came from Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco getting
(13:26):
engaged in him buying her taco bell for the engagement.
Number three Kristen, where are you.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Calling from from Hampstead, New Hampshire.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So what have you got for It's good or.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Bad or weird?
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Amazing? So I was just calling in because I was
listening to Justin about his proposal to his wife. And
my husband proposed to me on Christmas Eve, it's my
favorite holiday, favorite time of year in general. So I
know it's kind of taboo for some people, but he
brought me to his childhood church was all decorated for
(14:01):
Christmas and just beautiful. He played three times a lady
on the piano and then got down on one knee
and proposed. And it just makes the season even that
much more special. Every year did the.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Church did the church have a piano or did he
bring one?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Nope, they had one.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Okay, that would have been extra special. That's much cooler
than me and my underwear.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
Wow, that's so sweet.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Yeah, but so yeah, and you loved that it was
on Christmas Eve because when he hates people that proposed.
Speaker 10 (14:33):
If it works for you, Kristin, and that was beautiful
that he played that song for you.
Speaker 6 (14:36):
That's a very good song, lovely song.
Speaker 13 (14:38):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
I can't understand where it was taboo for some people,
but again for me, like Christmas is my favorite holiday,
so it just it meant so much to me.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
Justin, do you have the song for Christian?
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I'm sorry, Christin, I don't. Okay, I thought would bring
her back.
Speaker 10 (14:55):
Okay, Justin hate Billy tries to produce from the other
side the mic like, Billy, can you pull it up
for her?
Speaker 9 (15:03):
No, not even three times three times?
Speaker 6 (15:05):
A lady once twice, three times.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
It's well, yeah, it's an older song. Yeah, no, I'll
handle it. It's a big deal.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Let's go to Deborah, Debra, where are you calling from?
Speaker 8 (15:21):
Hi?
Speaker 14 (15:21):
Good morning and over.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Okay, So what have you got for us?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Proposal?
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Were you proposed to?
Speaker 5 (15:28):
Well?
Speaker 14 (15:29):
Kind of sort of yes and no. So I was
nineteen when I first met my husband. At twenty four
years old, after waiting like five years, I'm like, you
know what, take stay off work.
Speaker 8 (15:38):
We're going into the Jewels building.
Speaker 14 (15:39):
We went into the first door, the first ring I saw.
I'm like, dare it is? Take it out, put it
on my hands, give me your credit card. And then
we got married when I was twenty eight.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
So that was my pay I think that that much.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
No, that's not one of the best ones, okay.
Speaker 14 (15:55):
And then I was married for twenty three years, divorced,
and five years ago I met now boyfriend and I said,
you know, I'm giving you five years, not waiting five years,
and I'm leaving. Then last year, on Christmas Eve, the
last gift, you know, was the ring.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Well, look at that another fALS on Christmas Eve?
Speaker 10 (16:14):
All right, right, typically doesn't work out when the woman
has to go buy her own ring.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
Well, very true.
Speaker 10 (16:20):
Like if you don't want to go pick out the
ring and buy it and surprise me, I don't think
you want to marry me.
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Yeah, And if you pick out the ring and you're
the guy and then you turn to the woman and
say can I have your credit card? That's really not
a good purpose.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
A four year engagement. I just don't think he.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
Was I just I think he was ready.
Speaker 6 (16:36):
I don't think I'm surprised there what their marriage lasted
twenty years?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
My wife smashed her ring. It's gone the Yeah, her
ring is ruined. She doesn't know how she did it.
She must have smashed it on something. But yeah, oh yeah,
it is what it is.
Speaker 9 (16:49):
So did she lose the diamond?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Yeah, the diamond fell out. So she looked one day.
She didn't know what happened, and it was oh my god,
was it insure?
Speaker 13 (16:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (16:58):
Is it on your homeowners insurance?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
No, it's just the loss.
Speaker 6 (17:03):
So she ran anymore.
Speaker 10 (17:05):
Okay, well, so much for that beautiful Christmas proposal.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
You know what I should do? I need I need
to get our new ring. What I need to do?
You know, Christmas? I'll sing a song.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
You you got it, kristin there it is okay, let's
go to Wendy. Wendy where you call from? I'm sure, okay, Wendy,
what have you got? Proposal?
Speaker 6 (17:29):
Good?
Speaker 8 (17:29):
Bad?
Speaker 7 (17:30):
Well to me, it was good for some people. They
might have been like, oh, real romantic. But when I
was pregnant with my first daughter, my ex left and so,
you know, as I was going to appointments and stuff
with no ring on my finger, I always felt like
people were judging me. And so fast forward four years
and I was pregnant and I had expressed to my
(17:52):
you know then boyfriend that how I had felt to
read my first pregnancy. So the day of our first
appointment with my OB we were getting ready to go
and I turned around in the kitchen and he was
down on one knee and he had made sure that
I didn't feel judged anymore because I had the ring
on my finger. Sweet years later, we're still happily married.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Absolutely, very thoughtful.
Speaker 10 (18:15):
It's simple, it's private, and he thought about that right
in the kitchen.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Way again in that kitchens.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Let's go to Sarah. Next, Sarah, give us a good one.
Speaker 15 (18:27):
Go Hi.
Speaker 8 (18:30):
So my now husband this was three years ago, so
twenty twenty one. Every Christmas we do a secret Santa
swap with his family, and so the last gift was
nowhere to be found, and my husband to be her
husband now was looking around the tree and I was
not facing him, and she's like, oh, I found it here,
(18:51):
And so I turned around and he was down on
one knee in front of the tree, and he proposed
in front of his whole family, which was really special.
So that was that was my engageing story. And we
just had our first child two years ago.
Speaker 5 (19:04):
So I like that one.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
I'm not a big fan of having people around when
you proposed, but.
Speaker 6 (19:09):
This one works like that.
Speaker 9 (19:11):
Yeah, the question I was.
Speaker 6 (19:13):
Thinking the same thing.
Speaker 10 (19:14):
Yeah, I'm glad you said it doesn't like any would
you know what? You say it out and I don't
want to propose. I'm not gonna be picky about how
you do it. How about that?
Speaker 5 (19:23):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
You know what.
Speaker 10 (19:25):
My idea, it will be just me and my person
and either like like a private dinner or like even
at the house, but like you know, you do the
whole decorating thing you do, the flowers you do, like
the lights, like it but private and like no one
there and just no holiday.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
What are the lights for?
Speaker 6 (19:44):
Like you know if you like to.
Speaker 10 (19:45):
Marry me lights or just like it's all decorated the room.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Okay, Number two moments from this week almost made number one,
but not quite. This came from the Salem, New Hampshire
Facebook page. That's where I live and Salem, New Amshire
in a fight over a giant skeleton in this person's
yard and someone who is not happy about it. We
got the owner of the skeleton on the line. Number two.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
There is controversy in your town of Salem, New Hampshire
with these crazy, these wacky Facebook groups.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Well, first of all, I gotta say the Salem Facebook group,
the town group, is really good. It's moderated very well.
I don't have many complaints about it. There's much worse
than that one. But I will say this past weekend
I was on there and I saw someone post the
woman that you know, she has a giant skeleton in
her front yard. It's dressed as Santa. She's one of
(20:38):
these people that leaves it up all year round, I assume.
And she got an anonymous letter from a neighbor saying
enough is enough, take it down. It's ugly enough. We
don't want to see the skeleton. Oh, and of course
the comments lit up, like who is this Karen to
leave an anonymous letter? Yeah, and we talked about it
yesterday and they she reached out to us and wants
to come on and tell her side of the story.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Oh, we got her on the phone.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Now go to Cat and Sail in the Hampshire.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Hey Cat, Hi, everyone, Hey Katkat, talk directly into the
phone if you can. We're having trouble hearing you. How
you doing, Kat, I'm good?
Speaker 13 (21:11):
How are you guys?
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Good?
Speaker 3 (21:13):
So what form of dress is the skeleton in as
we speak this morning? What's the update?
Speaker 13 (21:19):
He is currently in a Santa suit with a big
white puffy beard. And I have the two skeleton dogs
dressed up as reindeers.
Speaker 9 (21:28):
Oh this is so festive. I love it.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Now were the dogs the last minute addition? Was this
your way getting back at the person in the face
grip book group?
Speaker 13 (21:38):
No, they were part of the Halloween setup that we
had for this past Halloween and we just kind of
kept on with it.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Okay, so when did this controversy with the other person
on the face Grip group.
Speaker 13 (21:52):
Start Well sat came up. We actually got a letter
in the mail. It was mailed through USPS. They took
the time to type the letter up, put a post
on it, a postage stamp on it, and send it
directly to us. Showed up Saturday and from there we
(22:15):
decided game on.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
All right, I have the letter here.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Okay, wyn't you read the letter? Justin?
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Go ahead?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Enough is enough? Please take down that god awful, ugly
skeleton and dogs from your lawn. Don't care what book
it comes from. It's hideous and past its time. Take
it down.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
Hey, cat, you want my information, you want my advice? Sure,
get another skeleton, Yes, add to them. Yeah, get to them,
by the way, when you're done with that skeleton. Justin's
been trying to get one for like four years.
Speaker 13 (22:46):
But yeah, they're so popular it's it's almost like a
Black Friday sale. You got to like be at home
depot ready to go as soon as they put them out,
because we've been trying to get a second one for
almost two or three years now, and they're just so popular.
Everybody wants one.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Now.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Have you had any verbal contact with this person who
actually sent you a letter. No, so you've had no
desire to reach out to that person.
Speaker 13 (23:15):
If we knew who it was, maybe, But then the
letter came anonymously, no return postage, no nothing.
Speaker 9 (23:22):
Yeah, you just do You don't worry about this other person.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
This is a crazy Karen. This is what they do
for a living.
Speaker 13 (23:29):
Yeah. And once we posted it between my personal Facebook
page and the Town of Salem's page, we have ninety
nine percent of everybody that's come back absolutely loves it. Okay,
I've had moms reach out and say, hey, we drive
by the house with the kids two three times a
day just so the kids can see it. Both posts.
(23:51):
We're up to I think about twelve or thirteen hundred
likes and over five or six hundred comments that everyone
just appbsolutely loves it and says, hey, do you and
keep going.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Well, that's Lisa Dunovan and she's the voice of reason,
and she says, do.
Speaker 9 (24:08):
You anchor that thing down extra hard?
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (24:10):
Yeah for today?
Speaker 5 (24:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Do you have a ring cam?
Speaker 9 (24:14):
Yeah, very windy do yeah, keep.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
The ring cam on twenty four to seven because in
case this crazy person comes and tries to feel the
skeleton and like Lisa said, tonight, it could be blown
away anyway and that's the end of the story.
Speaker 13 (24:26):
Oh yeah, down, he's like Justin said, he's been up
for the last almost year and a half. So so far,
so good. He's made it through last winter with the
snow and this summer, so he's doing well.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
He'll be out, he'll be fine. And Kat, you know,
this is what we say to that person that sent
the letter. It costs nothing. Listen closely. It costs nothing
to wake up in the morning and mind your business. Yeah,
zero zero free ninety nine.
Speaker 6 (24:54):
Hey, I gotta know, what.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Are you gonna do with the skeleton for Easter? What's
the outfit?
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Uh?
Speaker 13 (24:59):
Most like a bunny costume? Will go get him some ears.
And this is so playful.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
And the dogs can be bunnies. The dogs can be
little bunnies.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Yeah. And you know what she's getting her money's worth
on the skeleton sure year round. Yeah wow, all right, cat,
keep up the fight, the good fight. As we say,
your yard, your business.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Okay, here we go. Number one moment from the Billy
and Lisa Show this week. Thank you so much for
joining on this jingle ball weekend. Don't forget the show's
tomorrow night. It is sold out. You can follow kiss
wan to Wait on Instagram kiss went await dot com
watch all the backstage interviews. Billy and I will be
doing a live countdown featuring interviews with all the jingle
ball artists, So make sure if you're not going to
(25:41):
the show, you check in on social or online. And
without further ado, your number one moment goes to Mel Robbins,
who we had in studio last month. She's doing Lisa's
book Club in January and she had quite the moment
with Oprah this week. Love this number one.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Mel Robins came into our studio. She sat right across
from you LESA just what five weeks ago or.
Speaker 9 (26:04):
So right because we had a big announcement.
Speaker 11 (26:07):
She has a new book coming out called The Let
Them Theory, and we made the announcement together that she
is doing Lisa's book Club January twenty second.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Wow, it'll be the first of Lisa's book Club event
of twenty twenty five exactly. So yesterday I'm sitting around
the house and I said, oh, let me check Instagram.
I'd like to check everybody's Instagram, see what's going on
and I follow Mel Robbins because of you, Lisa. And
there's Mel Robins sitting there alone in a room, extremely
emotional because she's going to be meeting Oprah in less
(26:37):
than an hour.
Speaker 15 (26:38):
Here it was in lessen an hour, I'm going to
be meeting Oprah and I'm going to sit down with
her and taught her about my life's work, which is
the left them theory in the five second rule. And
I'm just reflecting on the gravity of this moment and
(27:00):
how far I've come and how much I've changed in
the last fifteen years, and how I really have become
a much better version of myself and become a better person,
a better mom, a better spouse, a better friend.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
So that was Mel alone at her hotel room. Okay,
And that was the very first post I had seen.
And then all of a.
Speaker 9 (27:23):
Sudden, I love Mel becus. You've had curlers in her hair.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Yes, I noticed that to a giant curler for her. Thanks.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
And then a few minutes later there was another post
and Mel was arriving at Oprah's house I think, yes,
on the lawn and she was going to do Oprah's podcast,
and one of the first things she did on the
podcast was described the book to Oprah, here's.
Speaker 16 (27:44):
That this changed my marriage, It changed my parenting, It
changed my relationship with how I am at work. The
let them theory is going to make space for change
to happen because people need to feel like changing is
their idea. People only change, Oprah, when they are ready
to do the work to change.
Speaker 11 (28:05):
It's true, and this gives you the power to do
it because you're basically telling people you do you and
if you're you isn't what I need and what I want,
then I'm not gonna do you anymore.
Speaker 6 (28:15):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
I need to do more of that in life.
Speaker 11 (28:21):
It's like she boils it down to very simple terms,
but it's so true and if you look at it
like that, you can really make some tough decisions for yourself.
But the cool thing is is that when Mel came
in we announced the book club, It's sold out in
minutes and we're talking thousands of people. This is incredible, incredible.
(28:41):
She's incredible, and I love her story. She really struggled
for a while. She's so passionate about helping people. She's
been through it. She knows how to get herself out
of bed and she's funny and I just love her
and I'm so excited.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
So how about this. Now you have Oprah and Mel
Robbins face to face right on the podcast, and Oprah
tells Mel Robbins the book changed her life.
Speaker 12 (29:06):
Okay, so let me say this. I have over the
years read probably thousands of books, and this is by
far just one of the best self helped books I've
ever read. It is right up there with all the greats,
(29:31):
all the greats, and the reason it is I think
it's a life changer. It's life altering for anybody who
reads it because it's your personal story.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
It's like you're speaking into.
Speaker 12 (29:42):
Our ear, and it comes with your knowledge and your
acknowledgement of the mistakes that you have made, and it
just is there to set people free. Yes, that's what
you've done.
Speaker 15 (30:01):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
That's what you did. Thank you.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
It's incredible. It's incredible.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
I couldn't believe.
Speaker 12 (30:06):
It, page after page after page after page.
Speaker 7 (30:08):
Yes, yes, I yes, I believe it.
Speaker 12 (30:10):
I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
And it's so simple.
Speaker 12 (30:14):
You know, what I love about it is is that
you were saying in these pages everything I was trying
to say for twenty five years, day after day after
day after day after day after.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Day, now imagined this from most people, it's enough to
meet Oprah. She's sitting with Oprah and she changed Oprah's
whole life with her book.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
It's such high praise coming from Oprah.
Speaker 9 (30:36):
Oh yeah, I mean it's the ultimate.
Speaker 10 (30:39):
And forh Oprah's seventy years old, she's a billionaire, she's
one of the most amazing women in media.
Speaker 6 (30:45):
And she's telling Mel Robbins that she changed her life.
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
She flew Mel Robbins to her house to be on
the podcast. She wanted Mel Robbins on the podcast. And Lisa,
you've got her on the book club.
Speaker 11 (30:54):
Yeah, now, well, I mean Mel's from here. Yeah, I've
known Mel. I've known of me for twenty years. Yeah,
And it's real And it's just so cool that she
is doing the book club. I'm overwhelmed.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
And what are the odds on this day that we're
talking about Mel Robbins and Oprah. Oprah is in Boston
today for a conference right justin.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I'm going to the conference for women this morning.
Speaker 13 (31:19):
And I've never been.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
More excited to be able to say that it's been
in the same room as Oprah.
Speaker 6 (31:26):
Yeah, I'm actually jealous. I wish I was going. I
didn't know about it, and.
Speaker 9 (31:30):
It happens every year.
Speaker 11 (31:31):
They usually have some incredible speakers. But yeah, so she's
in town.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
Now, she's the keynote speaker. Kaitlyn Clark is in town
for it as well. But yeah, just a great story.
I just got chills again. I got chills yesterday when
I saw mel on the floor. She was on the
floor crying with the rollers in their hair.
Speaker 9 (31:48):
I I just love her.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
So let me ask you a question. So the next
time that Winnie gets on my nerves, Yeah, can I
say to myself let them, Yes, you should be saying
that I can apply it.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
Yeah, just let me.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
And then you follow it up with let me. Let
me just turn to Winnie and say I'm not doing you.
Please don't.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
