rest of the week.

Sweater weather.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Yeah, falls ear.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Like forties in the morning.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Yeah, that's what you call it.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
Anyway.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Justin Taya, Lisa, Winnie, Mikey v in for Billy Costa
who is in Africa, and we'll be checking in at
nine ten unless something happens. We hope nothing happens. But
you know the hippos, they like to drink. You never know,
you never know. But right now, we do have jingle
Ball tickets to show sold out in about four minutes
on Friday. It's gonna be an amazing show December fifteenth.
We're talking Tate McCrae, kid Leroy, Lisa's favorite, Kesha, and

(00:43):
so many more. If you want to go call us
right now six one seven, nine, three one one one
o eight we'll say call her twenty five. You will
need the keyword and the keyword is Menendez because on
the phone right now is Lisa's husband Tim Donovan, who's
a regular talkbacker, Tim from Milton, who actually at least

(01:03):
he knew brothers he did.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Surprisingly, this is like a totally true story, right Tim.

Speaker 4 (01:11):
Good morning?

Speaker 5 (01:12):
Okay it is did I miss my intro music?

Speaker 6 (01:19):
And also guests catching on though, but the Menendez Brothers
is from a Netflix series, but it's the true story
about your brothers.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Which and then their docu series actually dropped on Netflix
today at three am.

Speaker 7 (01:32):
Right, all right, Tim, what's what's the skinny?

Speaker 8 (01:35):
Who did you know while while or all right?

Speaker 5 (01:38):
So the background here is I was a junior tennis player.
I grew up in Pittsburgh, and you know, the movie
or the series is set in Beverly Hills, but they
actually lived in Princeton, New Jersey before you know, kind
of moving out to California, I guess, you know, for
Jose's work. So in that region. The US Tennis Association

(02:03):
is broken into different regions of the country, and so Pennsylvania,
New Jersey were in the same region. Lyle and I
were two of the better players in that area. So
we you know, we faced off and played on several
occasions in junior tennis, you know, some of them late
late in the juniors. We were you know, sixteen seventeen eighteen,

(02:26):
and you know, there was one memorable match I had,
and you know, this is like, you know, your parents
are usually you know, it's not like a lot of
fans or anything. It's usually this the parents. And I
remember playing him with Jose and Kittie sitting you know,
outside the fence, and I won the match and he
whipped his racket over the fence into a tree and

(02:48):
then he you know, came up and shook my hand and.

Speaker 9 (02:50):
Walked away, you know.

Speaker 5 (02:52):
And there's always like, you know, there's always a certain
amount of frustration when you're playing, or maybe a little
bit of anger, but you know, never anything like that.
I mean, that was pretty that's pretty extreme. So yeah,
so so Lyle was very much, you know, I think
the more intense of the two. Eric I didn't know
as well. He was a few years younger and so

(03:14):
not in the same age group as me. However, when
he was looking at colleges and I was already at Brown,
he visited and you know, spent a couple of days there.
So you know, I got to know him a little
bit more. He was certainly the more, you know, kind
of quiet of the two. But you know in the
series like that when the mother is saying I hate

(03:35):
my kids and Lyle scares me and Eric I can't
remember what she said, like pathetic or something. Yeah, it's
sort of it like Lyle was like, you know, the alpha,
and Eric was sort of you know, a nicer guy,
I would say, and not quite as intense. But yeah,
you could tell that there was, you know, some intensity

(03:57):
with that.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
Jose was the father who saying Kitty or the parents.
Did you witness anything weird with him like on the court?

Speaker 5 (04:06):
No, I mean it was you kind of know when
you know you're playing somebody in the whole scene around
the tournament and you know, so uh yeah, you you
could tell that the father was was more intense than
most other parents who are you know around the scene.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
But sorry, nothing over the top from the dead not
that was.

Speaker 5 (04:32):
Not that was visible. So you know, when I was
watching it, it's it's hard because there was another story.
So when when Lyle was in cause so the girl
that is mentioned in the series, Jamie, was his girlfriend.
She was a tennis player from Pittsburgh, and so Lyle's
from New Jersey, but he would come and visit her,
and he would he would call me to practice, you know,

(04:54):
and so we would and and you know, and his
character was such that, you know, I would go back
to school and then you know, you'd be playing tournaments.
He went to Princeton. I was at Brown, and you know,
I how people say, oh, I heard Lyle beaton practice, Like, no,
he didn't want to make that clear. Yeah, no, but

(05:18):
but it was just it kind of speaks to because
it relates to the show where it's like he'll, he'll
will he make things up. I fully believe that there
was some level of abuse, but you know, there's a
disgusting level that it rose to, you know, in the movie.
I mean that's I don't know, is that something that

(05:39):
you know, Lyle he was prone to do. It's you know,
but it's some of it, the extent of it made
up interesting.

Speaker 6 (05:46):
And my question would be, so he visited you at Brown,
so I'm assuming at that point you probably spend time
with him off the tennis court.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
What were those moments like.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
Yeah, so Eric was the one that that visited because
Lyle and I were the same age, and he you know,
he he went to Princeton, but he had to defer
a year, so you know, I remember, you know, Princeton
had a very nice facility, so they hosted a lot
of the college tournaments in the Northeast, and so I remember,
you know, maybe it was his first semester there at

(06:17):
Princeton and I had, you know, because he was delayed
a year.

Speaker 9 (06:19):
I've already been.

Speaker 5 (06:20):
At Brown for a while, and you know, I remember
just you know, chatting with him, how school going, and
you know, yeah, it's kind of hard, and you know,
so it's just there was nothing. I can't say I
knew him well as more of a competitor. But you know,
when you're you know, when you're competing against each other,
I mean, you know, you get to know him a
little bit, you have a certain amount of just you know,

(06:41):
respect for you know, how how good they are. So
I didn't have a ton of off court stuff other
than those few incidents where I practiced with them or
I saw him at a college tournament.

Speaker 7 (06:52):
One question before let you go when it happened in
eighty nine, were you like ex floored by it?

Speaker 8 (06:59):
Like how did you react back then?

Speaker 5 (07:01):
So that was, you know, interestingly, because there was a guy,
another guy on the on the Princeton team who lived
in Wellesley, who was a little bit older but new
Lyle and I was actually practicing with him at Babson
College and it was he he was very friendly with
Lyle and in touch with them all the time, and
I was practicing with him. And that was not the
day where there was a twenty four hour news cycle,

(07:23):
so you didn't always know what's going on, and so
I went out to practice. Take You're not going to
believe this. You Lyle's parents, Lyle and Eric's parents were
murdered yesterday, Like holy cow, Like that's just unbelievable. And
that was you know, the initial thing was, you know,
they were trying to paint it as a you know,
a mafia hit or something, and that's sort of what
he said. Oh and you know, I think he'd even

(07:43):
talk to Lyle like, yeah, I think it was mafia
related or mob related. So yeah, it was just completely shocking.
Oh yeah, that was just yeah, very very shocking.

Speaker 9 (07:55):
But well well yeah, no crazy crazy stuff.

Speaker 1 (07:59):

Speaker 3 (09:15):
Time for weird stories.

Speaker 8 (09:17):
I'm pretty creepy.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
With Billy and Lisa in the morning. Okay, So remember
we talked about this a few weeks ago. Jane's Addiction
was performing in Boston recently and there was this sort
of fight on stage. Wow, there's now audio from that night.
Dan Cleary, a guitar and bass tech on the tour,
posted Perry Farrell's isolated vocals from just before the freakout.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
Guys ready for this?

Speaker 12 (09:42):
Yes?

Speaker 13 (09:49):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 1 (10:03):
It sounds like Mikey on Friday Night.

Speaker 7 (10:06):
They did him a favorite by drowning him out. They
were helping him because he sounded horrible.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
It was atrocian.

Speaker 8 (10:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yeah, they just gave up and then he turned around
and punched the guitars.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
He punched Dave Navara.

Speaker 8 (10:17):
It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
That was the end of Jane's Addiction.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yeah, they may tour again.

Speaker 8 (10:22):
I don't think they should. For the best.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
Yeah, Mike, are you going to be this Friday night?
This Friday night?

Speaker 3 (10:27):
Not with them? There's a guy.

Speaker 6 (10:30):
This is a crazy story. Actually happened out in Arizona.
He was hiding under cars at a car wash. Why
you ask to look at women's feet?

Speaker 8 (10:40):
There we go going through the video footage.

Speaker 14 (10:41):
I watched it happen. She was already in the process
of calling the cops. There's no way he's coming back
for a third time. He keeps walking back and forth,
and you'll see him do that. He's watching to see
what she's doing. When we talked to her, she's in
the back seat vacuuming her car on that driver's side,
and he slips up underneath that front tire.

Speaker 8 (10:59):
He was all underneath the vehicle for about five to.

Speaker 14 (11:02):
Six minutes, I want to say, And then he slips
out and goes to this back passenger tire and is
like trying to fiddle with it, make it, and it
seem like he's there the entire time.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, the people are They push your letter too far.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
There's a book finished.

Speaker 8 (11:15):
There's an app for it, though, you can get it
wherever you want. Why do you have to have?

Speaker 2 (11:18):
You wanted the real.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Thing from under a car where you might die.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah. So before when when he was under contract negotiations,
she was legit thinking about selling her feet.

Speaker 8 (11:28):
I still am Yeah, is that what? I don't care?
They should pay me more, sooni to do it.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
You know what someone will pay for.

Speaker 8 (11:38):
I get pedicares every two weeks.

Speaker 7 (11:39):
Okay, all right, So there was an So there's an
animal that can twirk their predators to death. I don't know,
I've never heard of this before, but it's from Popular Science.
They did a whole story about animal that's twirking predators
to guess.

Speaker 8 (11:54):
Guess, I know what type of animal could do that.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
The wombat should be called the wom butt.

Speaker 15 (12:01):
When a wombat is attacked by predators, it quickly runs
back to its den and blocks the entrance with its butt.
This is because a wombat's butt is mostly made of
thick cartilage, which is tough and hard for predators to
scratch or bite. If a predator tries to follow it
into the den, the wombat will use its butt to
crush the.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
Predator's head against the ceiling.

Speaker 15 (12:21):
In this way, the wombat can even kill the predator
by twirking it to death.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
Woll babies got back.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
Yeah, so, Lisa Whinnie, I only have one question.

Speaker 14 (12:33):
Lovely ladies, I love that story.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Oh yeah, we have entertainment coming up next. Lisa is
covering for Billy. He's in Africa. Lise, what do we got?

Speaker 12 (12:44):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Yeah, we have so much good stuff Kamala Harris was
on call. Her daddy, Sabrina Carpenter was on CBS Sunday morning,
and we'll have more of that Menendez documentary.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Audio Entertainment Report is coming up next on Kiss Want
to wait.

Speaker 9 (13:00):
And you're waking up a billion Lisa.

Speaker 4 (13:01):
In the morning, I'll kiss one O. What up?

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Shaboozy?

Speaker 16 (13:05):
Thanks?

Speaker 1 (13:05):
Checking in this morning? It is the Billy and Lisa Show,
minus Billy Costa, who is in Africa, and he will
be checking in at nine ten.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Right, Lisa, Yes he will. I can't wait.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
I can't wait either. But in typical Bill Costa fashion,
you know he loves the spotlight.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
He does.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
His designated time this morning is nine ten. What time
is it right now?

Speaker 8 (13:25):
Eight forty?

Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah, he couldn't wait.

Speaker 3 (13:26):
Oh, good morning, folks.

Speaker 17 (13:28):
This is talkback Bill calling from deep in the bush
of Zimbabwe, Africa.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
I hope you guys are doing well.

Speaker 17 (13:35):
In the two days I've been here so far, I've
seen one of the seven Wonders of the World. I
came within two feet of being trampled by a giant elephant.
I've had three bean burgers, and I'm currently staring at
a wall with three giant spiders.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
And that's just the beginning.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
It's just the beginning. Nine ten, you'll get the rest.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Now, the entertainment update, the Billy cotstep. All right, Betty's
loving those bean burgers, so.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
He did have before they left.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Oh my god, I can't wait to talk to him
at nine ten. The other thing that's huge is that
jingle Ball is officially sold out on Friday. The general
on sales sold out in four minutes. I think this
could be a new record, right, Mikey.

Speaker 3 (14:19):
Yeah, for sure, one we've ever had.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Incredible. It's such a great, great concert. We gave away
tickets at seven ten and eight ten. We'll have the
same thing tomorrow morning. But when don't you give them
tickets away?

Speaker 3 (14:29):
Three tens afternoon?

Speaker 2 (14:30):
All right? Perfect. Sabrina Carpenter was on CBS Sunday Morning discussing,
among another, among other things, the biggest misconception is that
she doesn't write her own music.

Speaker 12 (14:42):
I think the misperception is that I don't write my music.
I think a lot of people think because I have,
you know, a producer and co writers that I love,
that I'm sitting in the room on my phone not
writing songs.

Speaker 7 (14:53):
Yeah, I mean so many artists are in group writing
sessions that you look at everyone every album, if you
look at who's writing lyrics, it's like seven people, him
and Taylor.

Speaker 18 (15:03):
Right.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
But there's two different kind of ideas.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
Right.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
There's the artists that just taken already written someone and recorded,
and then in Sabrina's case, she's in the studio recording
with these writers. Right, it's collaborating.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
So does do Alipa write her own music?

Speaker 1 (15:16):
I do not believe to collaborate.

Speaker 6 (15:18):
Yeah, but a lot of times the song's actually already
made and sung by somebody else, and then that song
is presented to an artist and they say, hey, we
think you'd be perfect for this song, and then they
go over it where what the Britta Carpenter is saying
is no, I sit in that room and the song
is created with me and for me, and often about
my life and on her album is Short and Sweet.

Speaker 3 (15:38):
I mean the writing of that album.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
Well, Amy Allen did a lot of the writing and
she posted something recently she and Sabrina sitting together.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Amy Allen is from Maine, went to Berkeley and she
ready for this. She has written thirty four out of
the top one hundred songs on the Billboard.

Speaker 8 (15:54):
That's crazy.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
We're talking Tate mccraig, Greedy. I mean, so many hits.

Speaker 7 (15:58):
But just to make a point, Whitney Houston, who's the
greatest vocalist of all time, has written like zero songs.
Every one of her songs who's written by She just
gave it to her.

Speaker 8 (16:08):
She's saying it.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
You know where I learned that?

Speaker 11 (16:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (16:10):
Yeah, I know that she didn't even.

Speaker 8 (16:12):
Sit in sessions. She had no writing credits to her name,
which she would have been way more.

Speaker 6 (16:16):
Rich if she was the writing of all the money
set exactly like Ryan from One Republic makes all his
money that way.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
Yeah, keeps on give him you money, all right. So
she also went on Sabrina to say that the reason
why she cast her boyfriend or on again, off again boyfriend,
Barry Kyogan in her Please Please Please video.

Speaker 12 (16:35):
I am genuinely like and not even biased opinion. I
was like, who's the greatest actor that I couldn't find
for this music video? And he was next to me
in the chair and he was so excited about it
and he liked the song, which is great.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
He's a fanily, he actually does like your music.

Speaker 8 (16:52):
He does like my music.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
I'm sure he does. We don't know if they're still together.
But he was great in that. I thought he was.

Speaker 7 (17:00):
Yeah, he's a good actor. Yeah, I don't get the sex.
He doesn't really do it for me, like attract attractive.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Wise man, Well, did you see Sulburn Mikey.

Speaker 19 (17:09):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (17:09):
Yeah. That I think also made me feel a way
about him, because.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
He's a kind of creepy character of a Psycha.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Have some really strange scenes in that.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
You see him naked at the end frontal Hello.

Speaker 8 (17:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
The Menanda's Brothers documentary is out today on Netflix, and
we hear from Eric and Lyle Menendez for the first
time in decades since they were convicted of shooting and
killing their parents back in nineteen eighty nine. But they're
literally behind bars when they did this interview.

Speaker 19 (17:37):
Wrote me this emotional letter when I was in the
county jail. Lyle putn't express what he did in that
letter in person. It was easier for him to put
it on paper. He felt that telling of the family

(18:02):
would be like killing my parents again, and he did
not want to do it.

Speaker 11 (18:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:09):
The letter basically says that his dad abused both of them.

Speaker 8 (18:13):
That gives me it's distrusting.

Speaker 7 (18:16):
I mean, the dad is known for abusing even now
people outside of their family.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Well, that's what's that's what's happening because a member of
the band, Menudo Jose Menendez, was their agent and this
guy is claiming that he was sexually abused. And that's
why the La County DA is reopening the case and
relooking at it because of this new allegation.

Speaker 6 (18:38):
That's wild alive and they might get out of jail.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Yeah, And we had Lisa's husband Tim on earlier this
hour kind of giving he knew them, kind of behind
the scenes. We'll have someone that in the wrap up
at nine twenty five.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
By the way, yeah, he played Chinnas with them. Another
big thing that happened over the weekend. Alex Cooper sat
down with Kamala Harris on her Call Her Daddy podcast
and we have a clip.

Speaker 20 (18:58):
I think that most America want leaders who understand that
the measure of their strength is not based on who
you beat down.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
The real measure of the strength of a leader is
based on who you lift up.

Speaker 7 (19:08):
This was a well done I think Alex stay in
her lane of like it with more women driven and
it wasn't too.

Speaker 8 (19:14):
It wasn't on a.

Speaker 7 (19:16):
Wide variety of political issues. It was more just on
like women's you know, the woman point of view. And honestly,
Kamala Harris had dropped some bars. If you like her,
you don't like her. She said some really interesting things
and she made some really good points.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
So she did Alex did a great job. Says she's
getting some backlash because people think she shouldn't be covering politics,
but it's her podcast and she gets to do what
she gets to do. Kamala Harris will also be on
Howard Sturn this week, so she's making the rounds Dolly
parton We Know We Love Her. She donated a million
dollars to the victims of Hurricane Helene, and she had

(19:48):
this to say about her today.

Speaker 16 (19:50):
I wanted to announce that from myself personally, just from
my own bank account.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
I'm donating a million dollars today.

Speaker 16 (19:57):
But but there's a lot to be done and we're
trying to fund other ways to even raise more fun.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
I love her, And then the Dollywood Foundation is matching it,
so now they have two million dollars a lot of money.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
And then she did a little song too right, justin.

Speaker 16 (20:12):
Haley Haley, Helen, Helly. You came in here and broke
ash all apart, Helen, Helen, Helen, Helen.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
But we're all here demand these broken heart you.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Know, you know what that just makes you smile?

Speaker 2 (20:30):
Right, play that Dolly part and clip over and over
and over. Oh, she just makes me so happy. Yeah, Yeah,
she's a good lady. Olympic medalist Frederick Richard, who is
from Stoughton, got the key to Stowton, his hometown, over
the weekend.

Speaker 3 (20:47):
It feels like a full circle moment.

Speaker 8 (20:48):
You know, I'm back in the place that I grew up,
but now I'm teaching the kids.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
She's incredibly grateful and I'm.

Speaker 8 (20:54):
Just talking so much fun seeing everybody that I haven't
seen so long.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
He's the best.

Speaker 8 (20:58):
He only graduated two year years I say, so young.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Well he's a junior now at the University of Michigan.

Speaker 7 (21:03):
Yeah, Classic Stone High class of twenty twenty two.

Speaker 8 (21:07):
It's been so long, it's been.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
We're so happy for that. Jeremy Swayman another great. He's
staying in Boston with the Bruins. He signed an eight year,
sixty six million dollar contract.

Speaker 21 (21:21):
To be honest, I am just so excited to be
a Boston Bruin. And all I care about is being
a Bruin and the fact that I could do that
for eight years and instill myself as a leader and
as a true member of this this city is all
I care about right now, and I couldn't be happier.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
But he's not playing right for there.

Speaker 1 (21:38):
He's not playing in the opener, which is tomorrow night
against the Panthers. Why because the contract negotiations were going
back and forth, and because it was just signed. The
plan was already to have the other goalie star. But
he'll be playing soon.

Speaker 6 (21:50):
Could you imagine having a sixty million dollar contract and
then not working day one?

Speaker 7 (21:54):
Well, it was like remember one Chris Sales will getting
paid like one hundred and fifty million. They stood it
on the bench the whole year.

Speaker 3 (21:59):
Yeah, and he's only he's another young guy.

Speaker 6 (22:01):
He's twenty five years old, which is a lot of
de for a twenty five year old Sway's hair to stay.

Speaker 7 (22:06):
I don't know hockey numbers. Is there money guaranteed the
way it is in other sports.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
I mean, we'll have to have Mikey look over the contracts.

Speaker 8 (22:13):
The contract guy.

Speaker 6 (22:14):
I think four million are the first year of the
signing bonus, so that's coming right right away.

Speaker 8 (22:18):
Yeah, luck at him.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
The Savannah Bananas will be back at Fenway for twenty
twenty five on July fifth and sixth, and fans can
enter a ticket lottery starting now through November first for
those two dates. And I would do it because you're
not going to get tickets otherwise.

Speaker 8 (22:35):
No.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
The two hardest tickets to get are jingle Ball.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
It's so true. I've been trying for years, and my
parents even live right outside of Savannah and they can't
get tickets.

Speaker 8 (22:46):
We can't get tickets to either of them.

Speaker 2 (22:48):
Now, anyway to go and you know, head to the
lottery hopefully you'll get tickets. And then once again we're
going to hear from Billy Costa at nine ten right.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
Justin Yeah, he seems to be ready to go. He's
out in the bush literally in Africa, but his phone
is working and we'll talk to him. Get the update

Dude, I am in the bush.

Speaker 18 (24:00):
Baby.

Speaker 11 (24:01):
Let me tell you something, Lisa Donovan, you couldn't have
been more right. You kept saying to me, Oh, Billy,
you're gonna come home and say you can't believe it.

Speaker 4 (24:10):
It was the best trip.

Speaker 9 (24:10):
Of your entire life.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
Well I'm here to tell.

Speaker 9 (24:13):
You it sucked, no.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
Trip of my entire life.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
It looks amazing.

Speaker 11 (24:20):
Oh my god, it is. It is amazing.

Speaker 4 (24:22):
You know.

Speaker 11 (24:23):
The weird thing.

Speaker 9 (24:24):
I don't think I'll ever be this far away from you.

Speaker 4 (24:28):
Guys again or anybody I know.

Speaker 3 (24:31):
Yeah, you're very far.

Speaker 2 (24:32):
It's remote, right.

Speaker 4 (24:33):
Very far to walk us through walk.

Speaker 11 (24:37):
Okay, So when we landed, by the way, long journey,
but Michelle and I both agreed the journey was part
of the adventure, you know, shout out to British Airways
by the way. Oh, there's something about that business class
that makes you feel special, you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
It looked that way with those deads.

Speaker 11 (24:53):
Yeah Whennie, yeah, Whinnie, I don't think you'll ever be
flying business class. That's a different So any way, we
got here and checked in a beautiful lodge. We were
staying at it Victoria Falls add a wonderful restaurant, and
and we spent the night there and then off we went.

(25:14):
And Dunal's here with me, and of course he's organizing
the expedition with Emma and and we'll get to them
in a second, because I think they're going to be
taking me to some place that's going to frighten me.

Speaker 4 (25:25):
But we'll get to that in a second.

Speaker 11 (25:27):
But Victoria Falls, oh my, I didn't even know until
I got here. It's one of the seven Wonders of
the World.

Speaker 22 (25:37):
Yeah, And there were so many more pictures and videos
that I'll share when I get home. But we've had
wonderful dinners, wonderful lunches, and I got to tell you,
they do a great job here and the accommodations have
been phenomenal. And so we got here to I'm sorry, you.

Speaker 4 (25:54):
Know where am I? Where am I right now?

Speaker 9 (25:56):
Where in the Panamasoi fosters are right now?

Speaker 4 (25:59):
Of course we are what did you say, not scary?
You're just hearing it again, don't know?

Speaker 9 (26:03):
We areware hand them the Sueet Forest Reserve in Zimbabwe.

Speaker 11 (26:09):
And yeah, and we had about four or five hours
keeping the bush. Today we visited some kids at the
schoolhouse and uh uh. And we're actually staying on an
elephant sanctuary and they actually rescue and rehab and really

(26:30):
really treat elephants with love here and we've just been
sharing the property, if you can believe it, with more
than twenty elephants. Wow, and pretty much everywhere you walk
there stop with the sound effects.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
Okay, John, I.

Speaker 18 (26:47):
Did your time?

Speaker 2 (26:48):
Did you see the baby elephant that that Danell helped
to rescue?

Speaker 9 (26:53):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (26:54):
Yes, in fact, there is a baby elephant here, a
calf that is two weeks old.

Speaker 4 (26:58):
Done'll tell us that story. What was the story behind that?

Speaker 11 (27:01):
Isn't that the elephant that went out on a one
night stand?

Speaker 9 (27:05):
There is a very brand new baby elephant that was
recently going to one of the elephants here. Yes, well you.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Don't want to talk about them one night's candle.

Speaker 11 (27:16):
That's the story I got.

Speaker 18 (27:18):
You know, she got lonely all of a sudden, she left.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
She came back the next morning, and what do you know,
a few weeks later, there's a baby elephant twenty two
months old. And just I'm telling you, we've watched the
this is so cool. At least once a day, the
elephants get to walk out into the wild and they
come back two or three hours later, And you would

(27:43):
think that it's a birthday party for the elephants every
day because the crew here is planning for like hours,
laying down all the food, placing all the pellettes, making
sure the elephants are going to have everything they want.
So the walk back is a lot faster than the
walk out.

Speaker 11 (28:00):
Into because they know they're coming home for a party. Basically,
they love coming back.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
So people that don't know Billy is on an African
safari with his wife, Michelle. It's her dream. When they
got married, that's all she wanted. She didn't want to
ring any of that stuff. She wanted to go. So
it's finally here. So tell us, Billy, how is Michelle?
Is she in heaven?

Speaker 11 (28:20):
Let me ask her? Michelle, are you in heaven?

Speaker 9 (28:23):
Thumbs up?

Speaker 11 (28:24):
Yeah, you have no idea, she cried several times a day.
I mean again, this was her lifelong dream. In fact,
the moment when we were flying in and suddenly we're
seeing Africa because the flight leading here was eleven hours.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
After the six hour flight.

Speaker 11 (28:40):
To London and suddenly you're seeing Africa below you. And
I'm telling you it's mind blowing. And as long as
we're staying.

Speaker 4 (28:48):
It's never going to be long enough.

Speaker 11 (28:50):
We're learning a lot. We're getting up close and personal. Yeah,
you see Debra in the yard and a wild peacock.

Speaker 9 (28:59):
It's it's are and answer.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
What was the question?

Speaker 1 (29:03):
What have you said?

Speaker 10 (29:03):
Like?

Speaker 1 (29:03):
What animals have you seen? Have you ever had any
close calls?

Speaker 11 (29:06):
Yesterday we're out in the bush. We saw hippos ah.

Speaker 4 (29:12):
And I saw a croc.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
What's the weather like over there?

Speaker 11 (29:19):
Okay, Hey, Donna, what's the weather like over here.

Speaker 9 (29:22):
Weather, actually, guid nice is about eighty degrees sunny, very comfortable. Yeah,
it's pretty nice.

Speaker 4 (29:28):
I will say the weather has been absolutely perfect.

Speaker 23 (29:32):
Now I've got to ask it out because right during lunch,
about two hours ago, the team was saying, be very
careful this next phase we're about to.

Speaker 11 (29:43):
Go on today, be very careful what color clothes you wear?
And I'm thinking, okay, what's going on here? So Danelle,
where are we going and what are we doing this afternoon?

Speaker 9 (29:54):
We're going for a walk in the bush. And it's
advisable to not wear bright clothing because you don't want
to stand out in the bush. You don't want the
animals to notice you as we walk carefully through the
bush so that we can see them and watch them comfortably.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
And what is Billy wearing?

Speaker 9 (30:09):
So we're going out into the but not in jeeps.

Speaker 4 (30:13):
We're walking.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Wow, So this is this is this is this is.

Speaker 9 (30:17):
Going to be the We're going to be dropped off
and for two hours we're going to be walking in
the bush out of the vehicle with two guides here,
two professional guides and they're going to be walking with
us as well as with a ranger.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
And what animals are going to be out there.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
Donald, Oh, he wants to know what animals are going
to be out there.

Speaker 9 (30:36):
There's all the animals out there. There's the elephants, lions, hyenas, peacocks,
everything out there.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
Why what keeps you guys safe?

Speaker 4 (30:47):
Okay, Now, Lisa has a very good question.

Speaker 10 (30:50):
What keeps us safe?

Speaker 9 (30:53):
What keeps us safe is that the animals are actually
more afraid of us than we're afraid of them. And
the way that we approach them and the way that
we moved to the bush with the guys that have
that amazing knowledge of understanding animal animal behavior, that's what
keeps us safe in the bleak.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
They gotta tell your story. I have to tell your
story that happened earlier today. Okay. So the elephants were
all coming back the party time they had done out
in the while, and you know, and.

Speaker 11 (31:19):
They're all very very peaceful, and one of the elephants,
what was the name of Noyle.

Speaker 4 (31:25):
Moyle just got curious, you know, elephants got curious. I'm
sure it was my fragrance that it was attracted to.
So anyway, he was coming towards me in a very
friendly way. Hether it he or she she she, she
was coming towards me in a very friendly way, and me,
the paranoid idiot, suddenly starts backing up really fast, and

(31:50):
I fall over and then got up. And this is
the best part.

Speaker 10 (31:54):
And although I don't think you'll be surprised, I got
up and ran past my.

Speaker 18 (31:59):
Wife and then ten feet later I'm behind a tree
on saying honey, you get away.

Speaker 8 (32:11):
Wait, last question, where are you sleeping? Are you in
a tent?

Speaker 4 (32:15):
No?

Speaker 1 (32:15):
He's not a tent.

Speaker 4 (32:16):
Okay, I think they're all lying to me. There have
been no tents. The accommodations have been phenomenal, I mean beautiful.
We're in a mansion right now, in the middle of everything.
I don't choose not to look out the window sitting night.
But anyway, they're asking the now am I going to
be in a tent?

Speaker 9 (32:37):
The tent is coming, Billy, and we have an extra
special surprise for you.

Speaker 10 (32:43):
I knew they were.

Speaker 11 (32:44):
About the turn.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
This is great. All right, Well, Billy, we'll be checking
checking in with you every single day. Tomorrow we'll check
in with you again an update about your tent. But
thanks checking in dude. Really good. Anyway, we'll wrap up
the show on this Tuesday. Next it's Kiss Kids.

Speaker 2 (33:04):

Speaker 6 (33:29):

it's not just all these acts coming to town, but
all the memories they make with your friends and a

Speaker 8 (33:48):

Speaker 1 (33:55):
Actually, I got I gotta get Lisa's back on this, right,
because I have several times Riley and Max they'll come

So the only way in is to win. Your next
shot happens with the Mighty McCabe at twelve ten and
then the v Bros. Right Mikey three ten yep, so
got to listen to win. We talked a lot about
destination weddings today, Mikey V. Of course getting married in
the Dominican Republican just a few weeks, so a lot
a lot of feedback on this.

Speaker 20 (34:27):
Good morning everybody. I'm just curious, mikey V. Do you
expect gifts at your wedding or are your gifts going
to your wedding a gift in itself? Just curious.

Speaker 13 (34:41):
I have a great day.

Speaker 1 (34:41):
Yeah, that's one question.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
That's a great question, me, Lisa, we're actually talking about that.

Speaker 2 (34:45):
Do you expect a gift in addition to them going?

Speaker 6 (34:48):
And no, I think if you're coming to the wedding,
you're spending money and you're joining us, and that kind
of is your gift.

Speaker 3 (34:52):
I think that's understood.

Speaker 7 (34:53):
Listen, if I'm spending five grand or whatever to grandeen whatever. No,
I'm saying in general, whatever the if I'm going somewhere
and spending a lot of money on your wedding, I
don't think.

Speaker 6 (35:02):
I have to get when he's not going, I am
expecting a gift from her.

Speaker 8 (35:06):
Yeah, I'm not well, I'm not going, so I need
to give a get well.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
But if you don't go, do you still have to
send a gift?

Speaker 1 (35:13):
I did?

Speaker 2 (35:13):
Yeah, well.

Speaker 9 (35:16):
You did?

Speaker 1 (35:17):
You didn't?

Speaker 2 (35:17):
Oh? Yeah, she doesn't me out to this.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
I don't know what Mike.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
He had a wedding at a party here, local celebration
in June and I couldn't make it. Did you go whenny?

Speaker 8 (35:31):
I know, but I still had Why did you send him?

Speaker 1 (35:36):
I'm not We don't discuss amounts.

Speaker 7 (35:38):
You sent him like legit something I did too, that's
in the mail anyway.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
Destination weddings.

Speaker 24 (35:47):
To wrap it up, I had a destination wedding because
I didn't actually want to get married, so I figured
a destination wedding people wouldn't even go, and I'd be.

Speaker 4 (35:55):
Able to get out of it.

Speaker 24 (35:57):
People decided they wanted to go, So I got married
in Ruba and got divorced a year and a half later.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
I'mout my fiance when I get home. So the Menanda's brothers. Obviously,
the Netflix doc is the one of the hottest shows out.
There's a new Docusaries out right now on Netflix. They
might get out. They don't know they're going to re
examine the case. But Tim Donovan, Lisa's husband, played tennis
with the Menanda's brothers, or at least Lyle, and really
talked about one specific incident with Lyle on the court

(36:26):
when he played against him.

Speaker 5 (36:27):
I won the match and he whipped his racket over
the fence into a tree, and then he came up
and shook my hand and walked away.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
Yeah, intense guy.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Yeah, so you know, make sure you check that out.
On the podcast, Tim gave a lot of behind the scenes.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
Yeah, he knew them pretty well.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
Yeah. And finally, just a few minutes ago, we heard
from Billy Costa live from the Bush in Africa. He
talked about how it's been so far, his wife, Michelle,
she's crying, and he even had a little incident with
an elephant.

Speaker 11 (36:57):
She was coming towards me in a very friendly way,
and me, the paranoid idiot suddenly starts backing up really fast,
and I fall over and then got up And this
is the best partner.

Speaker 10 (37:11):
Although I don't think you'll be surprised. I got up
and ran past my wife.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Yeah, Bill, none of us are surprised. And now we'll
be checking in with Billy all week long right here
on the show. But hey's Shima found o. But I'm
in Boston.

Speaker 14 (37:26):

Thanks right, thanks for hanging with us, Mikey this week.

Speaker 6 (37:44):
I'm happy to be here. I mean, after that elephant incident,
maybe I'll be here a little longer. I'm not sure
it's gonna happen.

Speaker 8 (37:48):
Billy might not make it back.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
And well he's been there for like two days and
an elephant came like upon him and he tripped, hit
the ground, got up and ran away.

Speaker 3 (37:57):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (37:58):
Well he's not necessarily like the manliest man there ever was.

Speaker 6 (38:00):
He's really not that man like Riley was saying he's
liking the bean burgers, But do you think that's just
him saying in front of everybody that's Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:08):
He's right next to Donald, who's the leader, and then
his wife Michelle.

Speaker 2 (38:12):
And Donald obviously put this whole thing together.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
Yeah. So yeah, he's a photographer. He's really a really
good photographer.

Speaker 7 (38:17):
Oh, I mean two hundred thousand followers on Instagram and
his pictures are like so high quality and like so
beautiful and they're literally up close to the animals.

Speaker 4 (38:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:27):
So we'll be checking in with Billy all week long
on the show. But anyway, speaking of Africa.

Speaker 25 (38:31):
This is Tammy and I just am so happy and
grateful that Billy is in Zimbabwe on Safari because he
gives me hope that I can go someday. It's definitely
on my bucket list since forever. And his trip sounds wonderful.

(38:51):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
He called it a life altering experience.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
I called it. I told him all this complaining and
like more worrying, and you're going to get over there
and it's going to be, like Lise Donovan, you don't understand,
this is like this is life changing.

Speaker 7 (39:08):
Yeah, he's going to come back and talk about it
for like the next two months, and I'm going to
be like, stop talking about it.

Speaker 8 (39:13):
I don't care anymore.

Speaker 1 (39:14):
Yeah, I'm so sick of it. Anyway, we had Lisa's
husband Tim Donovan on earlier last hour's talk about the
Menendez brothers. He had a kind of a relationship with
them before all that went down happened. But anyway, Tim
getting shout outs on the air.

Speaker 26 (39:26):
Heard Tim Donovan this morning on the radio, and I
wanting to say what a great work Tim did with
our daughter Julia, who's a tennis player. Donovan Tennis Strategies
is Tim's business, and he advised Julia on where to
go and she approabed just to two colleges and she
got into both Georgetown and Brown. So thanks, Tim, would

(39:49):
like toalian person, but keep well. Thanks again.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
I told everyone right on live on the radio.

Speaker 7 (39:55):
Man sounds like his daughter plays sat a smart guy.

Speaker 13 (40:02):
But I love that he gave him.

Speaker 1 (40:04):
Yeah, he didn't tell him in person, he told him
right here.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
Little endorsement.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah, that's pretty cool, right, and it's very good.

Speaker 27 (40:11):
I justin finally learned how to do this after all
your tutorials.

Speaker 1 (40:16):
Yeah, before I go on, you know. I've been doing
that for the past three years. Every day I kind
of tell people or I advise someone how to leave
a talk back, and it's good to know that people
are listening.

Speaker 27 (40:26):
Final three years later, I just wanted to let producer
Riley know that she didn't have to go all the
way to the Galapaos. I I'm a former Boston person,
but volunteer at a sea turtle hospital in North Carolina,
and she could have just gone there and seen lots
of sea turtles up closer.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
Yeah, Producer Riley just came back from the Galapagos Islands
to see sea turtles.
