Speaker 2 (00:02):
Billy and Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
It's just a great start to my day on Kiss
one awight, Welcome in everybody.
Speaker 4 (00:08):
So on Monday morning, it is the Billy and Lisa Show,
justin Billy, Lisa Winnie, producer Riley. It's a brand new
week and a brand new contest. The Best Summer Ever
continues this morning. A ten, we're getting you into the
Jonas Brothers at Fenway Park. And of course there's a
grand prize as well, one lucky winner. We'll get up
front seats, we'll put you in a hotel, a whole shebang.
(00:31):
So eight ten, make sure you're hear to see the
Joe Burros at Fenway. All right, let's get right into it. So,
if you're a Disney adult, a Disney freak, if you will,
how about this a brand new app, right, Lisa?
Speaker 5 (00:41):
So this app creator is coming up with a dating
app called Single Riders.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
So it's basically like.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
Jumping off of their Single Rider lines that they have,
which allows on a you know, like single people to
go into a line and they fill empty seats, you know,
and then cuts down on the wait time.
Speaker 6 (00:58):
Oh yep, So yeah, God, this is even sadder though,
that is true.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Okay, so you go to the park, you're a single
Disney lover and you can go and they have like
the singles line like they do in skiing, like in
the ski line, because you're you you skiing and I ski,
well like you can if you ski by yourself, you
can go in the single line. You get you get
up on the down on the chair left a lot
sooner because you just jump jump on and so it's
basically the same idea in Disney. So that's that's why
(01:29):
they came up with that name because it's the single one.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
I need to ask what there are people adults who
go to Disney alone?
Speaker 7 (01:37):
Yeah, you know what, it's a Disney adult.
Speaker 8 (01:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
That is.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
When I went to Disney a few years ago for
the first time, it was my biggest takeaway. I had
a great time with my much of my child, but
it was the people walking around with no kids. You know,
they have the ears and everything, and it was like, oh.
Speaker 6 (01:53):
Yeah, all dressed up but alone.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yes, yes, yes, really.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
People moved to the Orlando area just taking know Disney time.
It's actually like people will literally decide to move to Orlando,
kissing me anywhere within the realm of Disney World, so
that they can get a pass for the year, which
is like a thousand dollars right, and you can go
any day, anytime and ride or ride, go get food.
Speaker 6 (02:16):
But I need to be clear, you're talking about a
person alone.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Yes, So they like being part of this community.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Yes, And now because of this app, they can meet
other Disney adults.
Speaker 6 (02:26):
Hi, my name is Joe.
Speaker 9 (02:28):
I am one of the developers of Single Writers and
other theme park enthusiast dating app. So if you guys
have any ideas of things that you would like to
see in our dating app, please let me know. But yeah, like,
I'm super excited this is happening.
Speaker 7 (02:42):
You can meet other like minded individuals like yourself.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I actually know a couple that they're Disney adults and
they met as adults and they both have love for.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Disney and that's probably one of the main reasons they
got married.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
I'm not even excited they go to the park.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
They just bought one of those Disney vacation club things
where you go like at least.
Speaker 7 (03:01):
I think I mean the Disney cruisers.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
No, so they I know they moved to like Kentucky,
so they're a lot closer now to Disney. They don't
live and they thought about the thing too, and they
just find the Disney Vacation Club.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
So they go a couple times a year.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
They have everything mapped out. They like, they are obsessed.
And I gotta say, I think it's a little bit
more interesting that the man is such a Disney fan
than the female.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Which I'm not.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
I'm not being sex to survied, So that just feel
like maybe it's a little bit more socially except for
the girls to want to be princesses and.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Like you have like that.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Does he like the ride?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yes, yes, they go on the rides. They're in their
late thirties.
Speaker 6 (03:36):
So a man in his thirties.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Late thirties alone, yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Will walk Disney World wearing.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Well now you're a wife. Well now he's a wife.
So they got engaged a Disney and.
Speaker 5 (03:46):
They again, this is like a shared experience for them.
It's a passion, and they found each other.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
I will say the girl I've known a lot longer,
I don't really know the husband. She's like a family
friend and she's very sweet and I don't see an
instant but she has like kind of like almost like
a very sweetness to her where she would be a
Disney adult, Like she's like just sweet.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
And kind and just not like just.
Speaker 7 (04:11):
Seems I don't say simple houses decorated into.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yeah, you can buy property on Disney property and live
there forever.
Speaker 7 (04:18):
Really, they don't all dress up either.
Speaker 10 (04:20):
Listen, not all of us Disney adults dress up.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Okay, just so you know, yeah, Melissa online one, isn't
there a community called Celebration or.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Celebration Celebration in Florida.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
It's like a whole community right around the park.
Speaker 7 (04:35):
You can own the house. Yeah, live there?
Speaker 11 (04:38):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (04:39):
Really, really, you take it easy. We have this here
with Mickey and.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Today, yet we have Marissa.
Speaker 6 (04:50):
Okay, Marissa, are you wearing Mickey ears right now?
Speaker 10 (04:55):
No? I will say there's a fine line of the
Disney adults, and I hate saying that I am one
because I'm not dressing up. I'm not going crazy. I
just really enjoy like the presence there, like the parades
and the rides. But I did want to chime in
just on the dating app. There's a huge Facebook community
group about Facebook dating with Disney adults, and they'll put
(05:19):
on like their whole costumes outfits and everything, and it's
actually like it's a huge thing. So I think the
app might have some competition. I'm just saying, Wow, this
is so cool.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
So we actually have a listener, Marissa, where are you
calling from?
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Marissa Ston?
Speaker 7 (05:38):
So you are one of them and.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
This is there to Marissa's point, there's the people that
really enjoy Disney might go once or twice a year,
it's just because they want to experience. Then there's the
next level people that's their whole personality. They have to
buy every Mickey ear, they have to live in Florida,
they have to go, and.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
They've got multiple costumes.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Yes, and there's a there's a difference, a big difference.
Speaker 7 (06:00):
Marissa, You're not one of them.
Speaker 9 (06:03):
No.
Speaker 10 (06:03):
I just enjoy going for the rise and I like
going there for like the parades and the fireworks. But
I would not qualify myself as a Disney quote unquote adults.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Where's your massa?
Speaker 10 (06:11):
Where's your popcorn baskets?
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Where's your favorite place to stay?
Speaker 10 (06:17):
I like the All Star resorts. Honestly, they're so close,
they have the transportation. It's not crazy.
Speaker 7 (06:22):
Isn't the All Star Resort for Little League kids? No,
it's the kind of the lower end the hotel. Yeah,
but the Little League teams go there. Yeah it's the cheapest.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Yeah but still but even the cheapest hotels in Disney
are still nice.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Oh yeah, of course.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
I think it's more interesting people that literally moved their
whole life to live in Florida or just to go
to Disney like that.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
That's that's a commitment that really is just fascinating to me.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
But I honestly think I low key think this is
very like a common interest.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
It would be again, it's it's a shared passion. Yeah,
and that's what everybody's always of course.
Speaker 12 (06:55):
It is from the Planet Fitness Kids one of eight studios.
We're back with and Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
Hey everybody, good morning.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
If you're just tuning into the Billy and Lisa Show,
welcome to a brand new week.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
It's a Monday.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
I'm justin And a few minutes ago we kicked off
the show by talking about this brand new single Riders
app for Disney adults that are single to meet other people.
Speaker 7 (07:17):
And what do you know, hick on the Disney adults.
Speaker 8 (07:20):
Let me tell you something.
Speaker 6 (07:21):
I am thirty years old and I go to I
go to Florida with my family.
Speaker 13 (07:26):
Every single year.
Speaker 7 (07:27):
No one else wants to go to Disney.
Speaker 14 (07:29):
You bet your bottom dollar.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
I'm going alone.
Speaker 7 (07:31):
I am the biggest Disney adult. I am not a
weird Disney adult.
Speaker 15 (07:36):
I don't press up.
Speaker 16 (07:36):
I don't even wear Mickey on the clothes.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I just love Disney.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
I love Disney.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
See that's one of my points.
Speaker 6 (07:44):
Unless you're a Disney adult and you're not gonna say,
bet your bottom dollar.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
A Disney adult, it's very wholesome.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Yes, going to the park alone.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
It's actually good if you're a rider because, like Lisa said,
you got to ride so much quicker, you can do
so much alone.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
Oh I definitely see that.
Speaker 6 (08:02):
I definitely see that advantage to being a single adulta.
Speaker 7 (08:05):
Disney kids do nothing but hold your back.
Speaker 6 (08:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (08:08):
We went a few years ago and they're expensive.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
We spent so much money. Within the first hour in
the park, my son wanted to go home to the
hotel to go in the pool.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (08:18):
We have a pool at home.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Right, Yeah, yeah, because you know they have they have
nanny though that you can you know, hire, so that.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
You can go to stuff as adults.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
It's because your kids hold you back, so you see
all this money, then you pay like forty dollars an
hour like this nanny service.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Actually started talking about bringing my mother in law the
next hour.
Speaker 7 (08:36):
Disney. Yeah, stay back with the kids.
Speaker 5 (08:37):
Yeah, you're right, because there's always one that just can't
deal with it.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (08:41):
I don't think there's any smoking in the park.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
But yeah, and your mother in laws smoking, hotel smoking anywhere, and.
Speaker 6 (08:50):
It's literally.
Speaker 7 (08:55):
In the bathroom, in the hotel room in the window.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
She's going back from Florida tomorrow. Wow, and so you know,
so you get off the plane. I don't even smoke
right outside the doors at Logan.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
No you no, I don't think you can smoke it.
Speaker 7 (09:10):
He says, you can't.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Oh, shed probably makes it right.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
She'll do what you want anyway. Anyway, what's up with
the Celebration place in.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Florida so they can buy home?
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Yeah, it's a it's a community.
Speaker 7 (09:19):
Oh, it's a community.
Speaker 17 (09:20):
Lisa, Okay, Good morning, Billy and Lisa Crewe Alert listener
Lily here. I used to work for the urban planting
firm that designed Celebration Florida. The creepy thing about that
community is that it's full of traditional wives where the
milkman still comes. Most of the wives work from home
and the husbands are the providers.
Speaker 7 (09:41):
It's very very nineteen fifties.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Yeah, I don't know, it's a little creepy.
Speaker 6 (09:45):
You know.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
It's it's like, don't worry, no, don't worry darling.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Remember that. Yeah, Harry Styles movie. Yep, that's exactly what
it was.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
You see them on TikTok trying to be influencers and
they have these extravagant lifestyles where they hate the golf
cour over over to the Disney Springs or whatever, and
their husband clearly is the provider, and they have the
kids perfect, they have the dresses.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
On like they are just the pearls.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
Yep, And all of a sudden, the milkman's knocking too often.
Speaker 7 (10:13):
He's back again.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
There's still a milkman around here.
Speaker 13 (10:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Cleston Ridge, she can still have milk deliver.
Speaker 15 (10:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Again, it's like, yeah, it's old school people still do it.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
I think two places, thatch Her Farm and Crescent Ridge
both deliver milk.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
Still celebration.
Speaker 6 (10:28):
Yeah, very ninety you know that.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
They're both Milton and and Sharon Stowton.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
Yeah, wow, very nineteen fifties.
Speaker 6 (10:35):
Her job is to make a home, the American home.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
Afterday, it is perhaps the most important job in the world.
Speaker 6 (10:43):
How many years will she have before the job gets
her down? Yeah? Will it take her youth, her good look,
for health. We'll it spoil her dispositions and finally.
Speaker 12 (10:54):
Wear her out from the planet fitness Kiss one Away Studios.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
We're back with a Billy and Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
Good morning, everybody, justin here. So coming up next week

over forty million copies of her books, will be in
the house.
Speaker 7 (11:13):
It's going to be an amazing event. And on the
phone right now is Jody.
Speaker 18 (11:17):
Hey, how you doing.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
We're great.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
This is a dream of mine to have you on
the show and then to have you coming to Lisa's
Book Club.
Speaker 18 (11:25):
Oh, it's my pleasure. And wow, the super Bowl of
book events. I'm feeling pretty special this morning. That's great.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Well that's what we do here, right.
Speaker 6 (11:32):
Oh yeah, we've got merch, We've got everything.
Speaker 7 (11:34):

Speaker 18 (11:36):
Can't wait. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
So we'll be a Big Night Live with you August
twenty eighth, and you're going to sign all the books.
This is in part because by any other name is
coming out in paperback in August, So.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
This is like a big sort of like celebration of that.
Speaker 18 (11:50):
Right, It's a huge celebration. It's literally the only event
that I'm doing for this paperback. And this is my
favorite book that I've read, and I could talk about
it forever and ever and ever, so I'm thrilled to
get the.
Speaker 15 (12:03):
Chance to do that.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
Jody, can I ask you a question about the book world,
the book business, Like we hear there's a lot about
it's out on paperback.
Speaker 7 (12:12):
When do you make the decision?
Speaker 6 (12:13):
When is it okay to go ahead and launch the paperback?
Speaker 7 (12:16):
Is there a rule of thumb you follow?
Speaker 18 (12:19):
Yeah, that's way above my pay grade. I have nothing
to do with that. It's actually the publisher's decision, and
it's usually based on they look at kind of the
stream of hardcover sales and they see are they still
selling really, really strongly, Well, then we're not going to
release a paperback. So, like you know, there was a
(12:40):
remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt, which is an
incredible book, and that was in hardcover for years because
it was selling so well. So it's really a decision
made by the publisher and we just, you know, we
authors go hey, great, that's awesome.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
You right exactly.
Speaker 5 (12:56):
I want to do a big shout out to our
mutual friend Jody Lisa Genova, who is really right amazing.
So she's done my book club twice and she was
actually the person who connected me with Jodie. So a
big shout out to Lisa because she's a big believer
in Lisa's book Club and she loves you, and she
wanted to make sure that we could do this.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
So I just wanted to say thank you to her.
Speaker 18 (13:19):
Absolutely, it's a mutual admiration society. I think she's an
incredible writer and an incredible human.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
I also told Billy that your last eight novels debut
at number one on the New York Times bestseller list.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
How does that happen?
Speaker 18 (13:32):
Yeah, again, that's all sales, and I have very little
to do with it. I'm incredibly grateful to the people
who rush out and buy it or pre order the book.
In today's world, pre orders are what really sells a
book because all of those preorders tend to dump right
into the first day, and yeah, it's every time it happens.
(13:53):
It's a little shocking. You know, I'm very I consider
myself very fortunate. I work really, really hard. I also
have the most.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Devoted group of readers.
Speaker 18 (14:03):
And you know, in this thirty five years I've been
in this business, I have not lost sight of how
lucky I am to have them.
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Well, you know, it's great, Judy, you have the most
devoted group of readers, and Lisa Dunnovan has the most
devoted group of book club members.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
Yeah, this will sell out by the end. By the
end of the show, I'm sure.
Speaker 18 (14:20):
Well, it sounds like a master made in heaven. I'm true,
it is, and.
Speaker 5 (14:23):
We do so much for raising a reader. And everyone's
just like so thrilled that you're coming to Big Night Live.
Are you working on another project right now?
Speaker 18 (14:31):
I am. I'm very, very deep into the book of
mine that will come out in twenty twenty six. And
you know, who knows, maybe we'll even talk about that
at the event.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
We'll see I like, yeah, big announcement, breaking a little
Jude from Jody, a little fuser. Yeah, you have joy.
Do you have a special place that you do your writing,
like within the house.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 18 (14:53):
The funny thing is that I started writing when I
had a kid. I just had a baby, and then
with three years I had like two more kids, and
I was literally writing any time they were napping or
like watching Marnie or not hitting each other with sippy cups,
and you know. And then as they went into school,
I started to take my laptop places. I would write
(15:13):
in the you know, in the parking line at the
nursery school or at swim practice. And then they all
went to college and grew up and became adults. And
now the place I love to write the most is
in my house on the third floor, in the attic.
It's my very, very messy workspace, but I have everything
at my fingertips, all my research, anything that I really
(15:34):
need to get to to write a book is right there.
I can write anywhere, and I have written anywhere, but
I prefer to write in my attic.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
How long did it take you to write by any
other name?
Speaker 18 (15:45):
You know, most of my books, even the ones that
feel like they took fifteen years, take about nine months.
It's quite justtational. And you know, the same thing happened
with by any other name. When I put together the
actual time I was working on it, it was about
nine months total. And that's from the beginning of research
till the end of the first draft.
Speaker 11 (16:05):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
We also read Matt Honey in our book club two
years ago. That was a fave.
Speaker 18 (16:10):
So I'm again like, I'm.
Speaker 5 (16:12):
So excited that you're coming because we've been we love you,
all of us, all of us members.
Speaker 18 (16:17):
I am so excited. You know. I live in New Hampshire,
so Boston's my city and I'm just I'm thrilled. I
mean when I used to live back in in Needham
and Newton, I used to listen to Kisslinowy, so oh,
I mean, yeah, you guys are you guys are my
jam Yeah?
Speaker 6 (16:34):
I like that.
Speaker 7 (16:36):
Well, thank you for that.
Speaker 6 (16:37):
I got to ask you, though, when you're invited to
cocktail parties or holiday parties, you always feel the need
to bring books, you know, as gifts.
Speaker 18 (16:46):
Never never, you know what, It's funny you should say
that because I also write librettos for musicals and one
of my most recent musicals was in England, was on
the West End, and the director had this character who
was a writer show up with a book and I
was like, excuse me, No, nobody would do that, you know,
(17:06):
to me, that is so self serving.
Speaker 15 (17:08):
Most of the.
Speaker 18 (17:09):
Time when people ask me what I do. I'm like, oh, yeah,
I write. I mean, I never volunteer information like that.
What I do do, however, at cocktail parties is trot
out excellent details and facts for research because I have
so many great little nuggets of facts that I've tucked
away in my brain.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
What are you reading right now?
Speaker 18 (17:30):
I just started reading, and I literally mean like cracked
it open, The Undertaking of Heart and Mercy, which is
supposed to be this very strange, little interesting book, and
it's not a new book, but it's been on my
list for a long time, so I decided to give
it a whirl.
Speaker 6 (17:47):
Yeah, you have to know that Lisa was just writing
it down. She's going to make it for the next book.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
I always take all of the author recommendations because you
know they're great.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
So that's that's amazing.
Speaker 12 (17:57):
Kiss one away, and we're back with Billy and Lisa
in the morning.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Hey guys, good morning, Welcome back Billy and Lisa show.
Speaker 7 (18:03):
Justin here.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
So it is obviously summer. That means it's beach season.
A lot of people hitting the sand having some fun.
But Lisa, you're sitting on a list of the biggest
beach pet peeves right.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
Beach dot Com did this survey and they asked a
thousand people, what are some of the worst behaviors you've
seen on the beach. Number one is peeing in the water.
Seventy percent of the people said they hate that. How
do they How do they know that people are peeing
in the water, That's my question?
Speaker 6 (18:28):
Oh you can tell. You can tell when they get
and they walk in and they only go up so
far as they're you know, their waste, and then they
come out of the water in a couple of minutes.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Question for the group, has everyone peed in the ocean?
Speaker 7 (18:41):
Absolutely? Yes, I have never. Yeah, it's never peed in
the ocean.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
No, I just don't want my bathing suit to get dirty.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Yeah, but no, it's cleansing.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Yeah, I just I have to tell you never peed
in the pool.
Speaker 7 (18:54):
You can always talk to the sun. I've pooped in
the ocean, happily pooped in the long time. Okay, it
was very nicest moments of my life.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (19:03):
Number two is drinking alcohol when it's banned on the beach.
Number three is taking sand or shells, which is weird.
Another one is loud music. I kind of agree with that.
If they're like sitting really close to you.
Speaker 6 (19:17):
It's not your party, you know, right, you're just trying
to relax.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
So yeah, this actually happened in Old Orchard Beach a
couple of weeks ago. I was there with my family.
There was a lot of people and there was a
group right next to us with a speaker of bluetooth
and they were blasting music, you know, and it was
all swears and profanities.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Oh yeah, see that's the thing. If you've got kids,
then it's like an issue.
Speaker 4 (19:37):
And there's seven little kids there. I didn't say anything.
I just kind of directed their attention away. But hug,
your headphones are your budget, you know, like, let's just
be aware of your surrounding exactly.
Speaker 5 (19:46):
Another one, like you said, not picking up after their pets.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
That's gross. I've never witnessed that. Like the dog poops
right there in the beach and you just leave it there.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Well, I'm sure people just sort of first hand over it.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
Yeah, people that idea, I know.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
Another one is littering, another one is smoking or vaping.
And producer Riley she said that's her number one pet
peeve is when somebody just like openly like lights one up.
Speaker 7 (20:13):
Yeah, I mean it's a public space, but still.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Really most people vape. Now they did so many smokers.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
You know. What was not on the list was unattended kids.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
That to me, For me, when I'm sitting on the
beach and I see like little kids running around, I'm like, Okay,
who's with who here?
Speaker 2 (20:29):
This is like an issue that for me is like freakish.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
My momently said that's why we never went to the beach,
because she was watching everyone else's kids that I didn't
even know.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
But she would see like these undertended kids by the water.
Speaker 16 (20:39):
You see them by the shore line, they with somebody. Yeah,
I know I'm responsible, I don't know. Yeah, somehow become responsible.
And then the last one, number ten is sitting too close.
This has happened to me so many times.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Where there's a big, wide open beach and they come
and they PLoP right down next to you.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
Yeah, they've got the ten, they've got the chair. They're
setting up a whole party, you know. Other one that
bugs me and you might be surprised. You know, you've
got these guys, you know, playing catch on the beach,
whether it's frisbee or a football or something, and somehow
it always lands right next to your face as you're
trying to take a nap.
Speaker 7 (21:12):
Yeah, what happens happened to me too recently.
Speaker 6 (21:14):
Keep it in the watery, Yeah, hey, go along, go along,
and the guy's like twenty feet off with the pass.
All of a sudden, you've got a welt on the
side of your face or a frisbee.
Speaker 7 (21:28):
Take a frisbee off the head. Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
My biggest pet peeve on the beach is when you
know your group five a spot and then ten minutes later,
I group the same size as like ten people come
and sit directly next to you. Even there's an entire
beach that they could sit at, they just happen to
sit right next to you, on top of you.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
So annoying.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Yeh see, why would you want to set up so
close to another group? You still want to be away
from people exactly. Let's find a nice quiet spot.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Maybe they're lonely, they're looking for interaction.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
I guess you know you know who I like, the
guys with the metal detectors. Oh yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:04):
You usually see them early in the morning. It seems
like a very peaceful thing though.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Yeah, you know, and you never know what you're gonna find.
You know, remember the ring got lost at Hampton Beach
a couple of years ago and the woman that was gone,
she lost it like in the water, and some guy
came with the metal detector and found it.
Speaker 6 (22:21):
So what do you do? Post it? And then the
woman saw the post or.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
Someone put it in the Facebook group wow in the group,
and he showed up with his metal detector and found
the ring.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Good morning, guys.
Speaker 18 (22:31):
My beach pet peeves is when people feed the seagulls
and then all of a sudden, the sea.
Speaker 11 (22:38):
Gulls starts swarming them and they're just all.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Of the beach. I hate birds, So that is my
biggest pet peeve.
Speaker 18 (22:45):
I kind of agree with her.
Speaker 6 (22:47):
Yeah, and people do that a lot of a sudden,
they're flying all around everybody.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Yeah, picking up your friend's cry.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
Yeah you know where that's big Revere Beach at Kelly's
Roast Beef. That was always a big thing. The pigeons
and the gull and they could kill you. I mean
they're evil, those girls.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
And yeah, you get a super beef, you're sitting there
eating it and the birds are just flocking around you.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
These are prime examples why I hate going to the beach.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
And you know what it does is really funny when
you go to the beach with your young kids.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
You have all the stuff, oh my god, yeah, the umbrellas,
and then everyone's fighting.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
Yeah, like someone doesn't know how to put the umbrella
up properly and it's flying away.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
You can't get the chairs open.
Speaker 13 (23:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (23:28):
Now they have wagons, you know that they're made specifically
for the beach with the big tires and dad's.
Speaker 7 (23:34):
The one dragon understand. Oh man, it's terrible.
Speaker 8 (23:40):
Winning crew a beach Keith beach peep when there's no
one on the beach, okay, very remote, everything is cool,
and you observe this. Someone is sitting pefully having their
solo moment by the beach shoreline.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
And then you see ago with people who sitting thanks
to them feet away and it's like.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
What are you doing?
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Look around you. The whole beach is empty.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
Use your I guess that one should be number one
on the leaky media.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
You're waking up with Billy Leasa in the morning.
Speaker 7 (24:18):
The topic good this morning is bad beach behavior.
Speaker 6 (24:21):
Let's go right to the phones and we'll start there
and We've got Janelle on the phone.
Speaker 7 (24:26):
Janelle, good morning, was up?
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Good morning?
Speaker 13 (24:30):
Oh my god. I'm a long time listener, first time caller.
I can't believe I got through.
Speaker 7 (24:34):
Well, welcome to the call. Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 13 (24:38):
So I have a hilarious story from the weekend and
my husband still thinks I'm crazy because I'm talking about
it and it's still making me mad. But so we
were at the beach and this beach is known for
carry in carry out your trash. So and of course
the seagles are crazy. So there was stuff on the beach.
You know, the family wasn't there. They must have been
(24:59):
in the water something like that. So a seagull is
going crazy on their you know, takeout bag. There was
a big paper bag full of you know, takeout trash
and people were filming it. He was like, everything was
like going down the beach. So I get up, I
get I like, pick up the stuff. I show the
seagull away, and meanwhile the tide's coming in as well. Right,
(25:21):
So so this family stuff, it's like towels, bags.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
The phones in it.
Speaker 13 (25:25):
So I pick up the trash. I go to bring
the trash back to where I am. I'm sitting probably
like ten feet away and like they're A lady was
behind me and I'm like, oh, you know, like it
looks like she's like coming to the step. So I
bring the trash back to my family. And this is
like a pet peeve, like the trash on the beach,
like that's initially why I picked it up, because like
(25:47):
it was rolling into the water. It was terrible. So
this lady, like I figured she was saw the the
stuff like close to the tide coming in. So I
was like, oh, that's nice, like she's she's moving the stuff.
Speaker 17 (26:00):
I was gonna move this up.
Speaker 13 (26:01):
Meanwhile, she sees me picking up the trash now as
I sit back down because she moved the stuff, and
then she walks away. But she comes back and it
turns out this was her stuff. So she let me
sit down with my with her bag of trash like
and it was a big bag. It wasn't like a
little trap bag. It was like full up there. Doesn't
(26:27):
doesn't say anything to me, like doesn't say oh thank you,
like I'll take my trash, like yeah, like you know
you don't have to take it, you know what I mean,
and just sits there like watching me run down the
beach and pick up all the trash, doesn't chase after me,
It doesn't help, Like, am I crazy? I just thought
that was just so rude, Like I don't know, it
definitely was rare.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
I thought you were gonna say she asked for her
trash back she had a couple of clams left over.
Speaker 13 (26:53):
Well, So it's funny because inventially I'm like, do I
like take it? You know, because like I feel like
at first, like I I put it back there, but
that's like the seagle came back as I was walking away.
I'm like, oh my god, this freaking thing. So so
I finally like I picked up the rest of it.
I'm like, I don't know. I mean, I think if
they didn't want the rest of it, even if it
was a leftover plan because obviously the steagle runs through it.
(27:16):
But I'm like, she's actually watching me pick up this trash,
and I'm like, oh my god, like I have no issue.
Speaker 6 (27:23):
Can I ask you what beach was this?
Speaker 13 (27:26):
This was Long stands in York Beach, Maine.
Speaker 15 (27:31):
Yeah, yeah. Here.
Speaker 13 (27:35):
I am like and again like I do I feel
like sounds like Maenad.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
What happened to I'm afraid to ask.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
I'm not going to ask.
Speaker 16 (27:53):
They both left the trash oh Man track.
Speaker 2 (28:00):
Today, pet Peeve at the beach.
Speaker 5 (28:03):
I was at the beach over the weekend and the
family that sat right next to us had a giant
portable speaker that they let their kids control from an iPad.
Speaker 11 (28:13):
So we listened to the same Taylor Swift song.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Very loudly, over and over again.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
I mean, I like music, but please don't let your
kids control it and keep replaying the same song.
Speaker 6 (28:28):
I wonder if it was cruel summer.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Yeah, I love that song.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
What's worse the same song playing over and over again
or a bunch of like profanity and like.
Speaker 7 (28:36):
Swam right, which you experience right.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Yeah, they were right next to us an old Orchard
and I mean after F bomb.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yeah, you kind of have to like watch that.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Yeah, the little one, I mean, the good thing. My
daughter she really wasn't paying attention.
Speaker 7 (28:50):
But was your son though he's eight, he would singing along.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
The guy above here.
Speaker 14 (29:01):
I've got a place on Old Orchard Beach in Maine,
and don't get me going with the beach toys. The
place gets busy and I'm sitting there and somebody's playing
horseshoes with iron horseshoes next to me with the post
next to my seat, and they're throwing it at me.
Speaker 7 (29:18):
It was crazy.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
That would make me scot too. Who plays horseshoes?
Speaker 6 (29:23):
I've never seen it.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
It's so happy to carry around.
Speaker 7 (29:26):
It's cast tired. You don't want to get hit in
the face of the horses.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Like in the foot, like it should be illegal.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
They have plastic one they do. Yeah, that's like.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
An old set.
Speaker 6 (29:38):
Yeah, that's a good one.
Speaker 7 (29:39):
I feel like you see corn hole more than horses.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
Definitely do.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Yeah, or like spike ball. The kids love spider I.
Speaker 6 (29:44):
Don't go to the beach off and do people bring
corn holes in the beach? They do.
Speaker 7 (29:49):
There's all these new games too. I noticed that I've
never seen before.
Speaker 4 (29:52):
There's one way you throw a ball in this little
mini trample that's not spikefallah.
Speaker 11 (29:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:57):
And then there's like paddle we have like these paddle things.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Yeah, yeah, the boy's legs.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
Spike Ball, I think is a great bea because you're
really not bothering anyone, the ball is not going.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Anywhere, and so many people can play too.
Speaker 6 (30:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Yeah, I was whipping the ball across the entire beach.
I'm that guy. I did my best not to anybody.
Speaker 15 (30:12):
Good morning, guys. I was just in South Carolina and
there's constant reports about sharks and it's a big pet
peeve of mine. Where this kid's in the water. Everyone's
having a great time Fourth of July week and this
man is sitting on the edge of the water with
a big old fishing pole. Not only can the hook
and wires get caught up with people, but sharks love
(30:35):
chum dummy.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Yeah, you know what, that's a good one.
Speaker 7 (30:40):
That hook would hurt totally.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Who fishes like on the shoreline summer.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I've seen it. She's so right. It is kind of weird.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
And that's called casting. And when you cast, you have
to like reach back with the rod year old. Yeah, horror,
either in the water on the beach, you know, because
you're casting back.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
But she's saying, like the chun like the bait is
like attracting wish.
Speaker 18 (31:08):
She knows what.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
I feel like, you're either either deep sea fishing or
like pond or lake fishing, you like on the on
the docks.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
Yeah, I would have a problem with somebody standing on
the beach.
Speaker 7 (31:19):
Yeah, yeah, that'd a little weird pet.
Speaker 11 (31:21):
Peace on the Beach is PDA. You can always tell
when someone's a tourist because they're romantically straddling each other
in the water or ladding each other with sunscreen in
a really weird way, like keep it home.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
You do see that all people have sex on the beach,
and sometimes the broad daylight with.
Speaker 6 (31:42):
People around it to you could be on a crowded beach, right,
and there's always one couple. Right, they're kind of half
covered by a towel or something, and they're getting closer
and closer, and all of a sudden they're like, you know,
rolling around, like, okay, really use the car.
Speaker 7 (31:58):
Yeah, go home, it's not really.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
Yeah, I hate like sand gets everywhere everywhere. You don't
want standing in those areas.
Speaker 6 (32:11):
Yeah, the sand finds areas you weren't even aware of.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:15):
I've slept on the beach before, not on purpose, and
I woke up the covered in bugs.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
The little mites. They bite your ankles.
Speaker 7 (32:25):
You know what they say? You don't bring sand to
the is you going to bring beach to sand
