Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey guys, welcome back. So Lisa is sitting on a
story this morning that suggests that we as a state,
right Lisa, might be among the cheapest tippers on Earth.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Okay, so more than eighty percent of Americans think that
tipping has gotten out of control. So we have a
list of states, the top ten states that are the
worst tippers, and two on the list happen to be
in New England.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Oh boy, two, this is not good for US, folks.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Okay, So number one the worst state is California.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
That makes sense because they make minimum.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Hironing state comes in yep, just cheap.
Speaker 5 (00:42):
No, but California they get a full hourly wage. Yeah,
so people probably like, O, why am I tipping?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Any So the average tip there is just seventeen point
eight percent, and they have the lowest generosity score in
the country.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Never want to be had the lowest.
Speaker 6 (00:56):
General In California, they make fifteen dollars hour. Yeah they do.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Yes, Okay, So number two is the state of Washington.
I don't really think much about Washington's now Number three
is okay, let's is Connecticut?
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Interesting? Chief skates in Connecticut?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Okay, very very interesting.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
And number four is drum roll please Massachusetts.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Oh, we are in the top five.
Speaker 6 (01:23):
That's not good.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
That's not good.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
And you know it could get worse when no tax
on tips starts January first. A lot of people, when
I bring that up to them at dinner or something,
they immediately say, oh, I'm going right to fifteen percent.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Yeah, I don't get that. I don't either want to
tip the same me too, Yeah, especially they do a
great job.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Okay, do you want to hear what state ranks in
one of the best. Yeah, oh, West Virginia really yep.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
That actually is pretty shocking.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
That shocks me.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
Wow, and Kentucky is right behind them with twenty points.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I wouldn't have expected either of house place.
Speaker 6 (02:03):
Isn't West Virginia one of the poorest? Yes, yes, yeah, yeah,
but they're generous?
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Yeah, very what's the south right technic? It is technically
not really.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Southern hospital high income, high cost states look the worst.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Maybe because we're so stressed out with everything else we
can't afford to tip twenty five percent.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
You know what's funny about I like to think of
myself as a very generous tip or I old tip
a lot.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
It's good to tip.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Michelle won't even let me sign a check now at
a restaurant because I tipped so much?
Speaker 6 (02:33):
Does she tip twenty percent? She tips normal phase right
around twenty percent? Yeah, nevertheless, but she just grabs the
bill from me. Is she a tip less now person?
Speaker 7 (02:42):
Though?
Speaker 6 (02:42):
Is she going to tip less because of this?
Speaker 1 (02:45):
If I had to guess without asking her point blank,
I would think she'll go to fifteen.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Oh really, I'm going to stay at twenty.
Speaker 6 (02:53):
Me too. It's the I think it's the right thing.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
It's the right thing to do. I was a server, Like,
you get it right, get it like? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
They say, if you have spent any time in the
hospitality world or in the you know, service industry, you're
always going to be a good tipper because you were there. Yeah,
and you lived it.
Speaker 8 (03:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
I'm more judging now than I was before I was
a server.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I see you as a very cheap tip.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
No, I'm like, now, we've talked about this. I started
twenty percent. If you suck, you get eighteen. If you're good,
you get twenty two or twenty five. But I now
know what it's like and when I can tell if
you're actually really busy or if you just are not attentive.
Then that's where excused because there's a difference between being
attentively in the weeds or there's different that you just
(03:37):
don't care about your tables.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah, but see that's not how the weight people see it.
Like they could be the worst waiter on earth, right,
but if you cheap it out on the tip, they're
gonna blame you. They're just gonna say you're It wouldn't
dawn on them that they did a horrible job.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Yeah, maybe I guess if you're I don't know. As
a server, I always did really well because I was
good server, so I didn't really had an issue. It
always works out anyways.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
What you're saying is if you give less than that,
they're not going to get it anyway, because they're not
going to take responsibility.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
They will never do well. I'm just saying more often
than not, they're not going to take the responsibility they
expect their tip.
Speaker 6 (04:12):
See what I do is I tip twenty percent if
they're bad, right, and then if they're really good, then
I'll go up twenty five thirty.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Yeah, somewhere I'm about to.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Send twenty is the baseline for me.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
Yeah, I don't go less than twenty percent. I just don't.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
I don't either.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
What's a booker the bucker two? What does it do
to them?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
It adds up I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (04:32):
I'm saying, like, if you are really we're not good,
why am I tipping you twenty percent?
Speaker 4 (04:36):
If you did not care about me? That doesn't make sense.
Speaker 6 (04:39):
I just don't want them to judge me.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
They're gonna judge you, That's what I'm saying. They're gonna
judge you.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
I'm judging you off of your bad work ethics, so
judge me back.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
See when he's also one of those people that sends
food back, I would never send that. I don't care
if it was burned to a Chris right, I don't either,
not sending it back. I'm gonna sit there with my
burned Crisp steak right and just and tip the same.
It wasn't her fault, she didn't cook.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
It, so doudgie.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
I don't know. I just feel like you're tipping for service,
not it's not manager.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
You know, you know, I have a good morning morning crew.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
You know, I'm just sitting here listen to you guys
talk about worst tippers and all this tippings out of control.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
Then you're right kind of is speaking of tipping? What
about all these talkbackers?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
How come we're not getting tips?
Speaker 6 (05:26):
We're part of the show.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Come on, Uncle Bill, reach into those deep pockets of yours.
It spread some love, Oh boy and Lisa all the morning.
So a couple of minutes ago, Lisa had a story
suggesting that Massachusetts was among the cheapest states in the
country when it comes to tipping.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
It is, it's in the top five. It comes in
at number four.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
How dare they?
Speaker 7 (05:47):
Good Morning Morning crew, I just wanted to comment on
the tipping thing. So Massachusetts, Connecticut, Okay, maybe we just
have higher expectations and maybe the servers are just not
that good.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I don't know about that.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
I think, well, there's good and bad. You know, there's
great service, and those ones that aren't aren't going no
matter where you travel. Yeah, they're outside smoking butts and
then they come into your table and stink.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I still can't believe Kentucky and West Virginia or among
the most generous efforts.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
West Virginia is the most generous on average twenty one percent.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
That is shocking. Yeah, but yeah, I guess they're nicer
in West Virginia and more generous.
Speaker 9 (06:27):
Hey, guys, okay, so about the tipping thing. I'm curious
to hear what you all think about when you get
the automatic like tip request when you're picking up a
Starbucks or like, I don't know, even a pizza or
something where you're simply going in to pay for takeout food.
I also was in the service business back in the day,
(06:48):
and so my automatic is to overtip. But then I
feel like I'm resentful and I'm a people pleaser.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Yeah, I think the rotating iPad is going away. I
haven't seen it nearly as much as it used to.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
I still see it.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
I've seen it. I saw this weekend.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Yeah, so what are you guys do when you're just
picking up takeout? What do you do fifteen percent or
twenty percent?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
It depends on the amount. I guess that you're buying
or getting.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I always don't have I know that out well.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
So if they if they ask you, if they spin
it around, it says you do nothing.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
I hope they turn away and I hit zero. I
hope you're not watching or not.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I feel like I'm such a people pleaser. I mean true,
I always at least do fifteen or twenty.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Well, you know what I do.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
It's a local, local restaurant, like where I live, I
always do twenty.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
You know what I do because Michelle will order the takeout,
so I don't know what the transaction was on the
phone or online or whatever, which usually orders the takeout
and I pick it up. And I kind of know
that Michelle's careful about tipping. So when I pick up
the takeout, I always I never told Michelle this. I
always ask, so did you get a tip? And then
(07:59):
I ask how much? And I always get extra when
I pick up the takeout. Michelle, she'd kill me well
if she did tip.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Okay, perfect example I was, I'll give more. I was
at the Garden last weekend. Loved the Garden.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
They do it there right at the Idea.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
So we got two hot dogs, a water, and a
coke and it was like forty dollars.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Okay, all right, that's what happened to go there.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
And I didn't tip because I'm like that ten or
twenty percent is like four eight dollars on top of
already paying forty dollars for two hot dogs and two drinks.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
I don't tip on those either. Yeah, I don't really. Yeah,
at restaurants, so I have a server, i'll tip, But
if I get takeout, I just I don't.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
I just feel like I'm being judged.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
You and I think the same. It's just please don't
judge me like I'm a nice person.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
I'll never see you again. I don't care.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Let's go to Sarah online too. Sarah, what do you
think about this whole tipping thing?
Speaker 10 (08:52):
Good morning, it's getting ridiculous. The other night's lumineer's concert,
buying a fifty dollars T shirt at the concession stand
and guy automatically hits ten percent.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Oh see, that's something I probably would not tip on
if I'm buying a merchant now, I would never.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Tip on that.
Speaker 10 (09:08):
No, automatically, one of us paid it, one of us didn't.
And as they're walking away, he says to the person,
thank you to you and not see you.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Oh so, wait a minute. When you bought a T shirt,
they spun the iPad around.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Never heard that before.
Speaker 10 (09:25):
No, they didn't even do that, so it was right
in front of you. Tap and he literally just pushed
the button for ten percent.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
Whoa, that's five bucks at least depending.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
On what you got, and the T shirt's probably eighty.
Speaker 10 (09:38):
The shirt was fifty dollars. We got to them.
Speaker 6 (09:40):
That feels illegal.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
It does, right, Isn't that weird?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
It would never dawn on me to tip if I'm
in the merchandise store or I'm buying a shirt. If
you go and get a shirt or a jacket, you
don't tip.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
Yeah, no, right, I have to be sitting down with
getting service to tip. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (09:59):
I mean, like a dollar at the ice cream stand
or like the coffee shop is one thing.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Okay, keep your dollar, okay, because they're talking about you
if you drop a single dollar.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Yeah, but if it's based on the amount of the bill.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
The other day, I tipped one twenty five at the
ice cream stand. The girl said, thank you so much,
but you're welcome so much.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well, if there are coins, you say, keep the change.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Yeah, I'll the bills. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
I have tipped ice cream places though, because they usually
college kids.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Yeah, skooping that ice cream.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
I was annoying. I asked for a cop after in
a bottle of water.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
I was annoying, bill, you know what she said?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Plus it's kidler Roy and You're waking up with Billy
and Lisa in the morning and Kiss went away Lisa.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Now the entertainment updates with the Billy.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Copstap Lisa, Hey, Kid Hey Busy Weekend Fenway Park this
past weekend, the Luminineers were there for two nights, Thursday
and Friday night. Thomas rad and Teddy Swims were there
Saturday night, and they both showed up Fanuel Hall for
a pop up this weekend. Imagine you're just walking around
(11:22):
Fanuel Hall. Hey, isn't that Tom Mrett and.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
I saw videos of people running through Fanuel Hall. Once
they started performing, people were like, oh my god, he's
so good.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
That album is such a good album came out a
few months ago, really really good.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
And I guess they're doing these pop ups a lot
alone the tour. Teddy Swims talks about it right here.
Speaker 11 (11:42):
We always come trying to do these pop ups, like
we'll just like figure it out as we go. Live music,
live music, celebrating live music, and the non prepared live music,
like we see the show tomorrow. It's always so prepared
and so much goes into it, and like sometimes we
forget how fun live music is to just do live music,
you know, and so we always try to make sure
we do one of these type of things. And it's
(12:02):
like have a have a good unprepared time, and it's
it's it's a blasts you know.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
A Yeah. On stage Saturday night at anyway, Thomas Redd
talked a lot about Boston. Check it.
Speaker 12 (12:13):
I've drank most of your beers out of bar, most
of your bars out of beer. I've eat my weight
and lovester Rolls, tried but failed every time to get
a reservation of that two Oyster, throwing my guts up
on a whale watching tour, and attended my fair share
of Red Sox games. Less to say, this place has
(12:35):
always been and always will be one of my favorite
places to play on the planet.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
And I have a lot more, but I.
Speaker 12 (12:41):
Think the main thing I'm trying to say is that
I have a lot of history in this city.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Man, I love it. I can't get into it neptwn
Oyster either, nobody can.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Well, it only has about eight seats.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
It's like literally like ten. Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
So earlier, Yeah, we addressed the cold Play kiss scam
scam again. Reports say the cheating CEO resigned over the weekend,
and we had all kinds of stories about the woman who,
apparently before this guy was married to another guy who
was part of the Cabot family in Boston, one of
the richest families in the city.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I always thinking about Cabot Cheese.
Speaker 6 (13:21):
I could be them that wait, is that them?
Speaker 4 (13:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
I know her husband does stuff with rum and like
their latest venture.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
But I'll bet Capid Cabot Cheese is one of them,
Cabots from Vermont. Okay, Cabot Cheese, Okay, Okay, I don't
think it is.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Okay, We're We're at one Cabot Road. I wonder if
it's named after them.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
There's a whole conquest. Yeah, maybe this belongs to them.
I would better be careful what we say them. Another tour,
another incident. Katie Perry's still out there on the road.
During her show in San Francisco this weekend. I don't
know why I find it funny. She flies around on
a giant faked butterfly.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
This is a butterfly. The other one was like a
giant sphere. She needs to be careful.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
This is twice now in this tour, one in Australia,
one in San Francisco.
Speaker 5 (14:20):
This has not been a good tour for her. No
beginning she breaks up with the Land of Bloom. Oh yeah,
function of mishaps.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
She's been crying on the tour and everything talking about
the breakup.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
She cried when she came down from space. Remember controversy.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Honestly, nothing's gone right for her since she went up
to space.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Yeah, a lot of crying Jacks, but everybody's flying around.
Beyonce almost fell out of a car.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Yeah, yeah, the butterfly almost flew away.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
The butterflies fly away? Is that mesing? Didn't post Malone
fall into the stage?
Speaker 6 (14:56):
There was a hole in the state and he was
He got hurt, hurt bad.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Yeah, someone didn't have that moving thing go up.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Yes, she came out of the stage. They never closed
the hole.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
I'm glad you brought that up. I was trying to
remember this se was the one that fell in the hole.
That was post alone. Yeah. Billie Eilish, on tour in England,
announced she's working behind the scenes on a collaboration with
director James Cameron. I can't say much, but I can't
say very special. Somebody James Cameron and.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Well her show.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
She does this very like light saber at like, you know,
I don't know the words you use, but it's a
light show.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Has a light saber.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
No, no, it's a light show like at her concert.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
It's just the flashing little laser lazer the whole time.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Like that's literally what it is.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
So I'm assuming you would like for three D that's
going to be really intense if that's what she's doing.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
With it now.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Phineas still follow her around on two nod first one
without her he's a solo artist.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
Yeah, they had the lightsabers. Come on, Billy.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Did you hear about the incident at the Beyonce show
In the past week she was on tour in Atlanta,
and she's had a lot of incidents. You remember, right
the outset she had to cancel two or three shows
because the production wasn't ready or something. She's had one
incident after another, but this one was all about a bug.
Like people were leaving her concert on the escalators at
(16:32):
the venue and apparently somebody shouted bug or something and
it turned into a stampede.
Speaker 6 (16:37):
Well, I think once once people start moving in panic,
then everybody kind of panics over a buck.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I had an escalator. There's no, give there's this hard metal.
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Then one person I read this, pull out a lightsaber
and she just took the other guy out.
Speaker 13 (16:52):
You know what I.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Meant, not really. Charlie XCX got married this weekend at
George Daniel from the nine teen seventy five, and anytime
we have an excuse to play their song the sound,
we play it. And I really wish I knew that
(17:20):
song when you know it was out well they like
I never really was very aware of the nineteen seventies.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Well he the Matt dated Taylor Sweat rightly for like
two weeks and then that's why we were talking about it.
And then they came to Boston so we could have
gone to the show because then we all got the
merch and we have all.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
The the merch. Chef Hi Phil.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
When I was an intern, when we were in the
building across the street, they came in and they did
a performance. It was Matt Heally and I think that
because they split up it was like two and two.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
I don't remember that.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Yeah, ten years ago, did they have lightsabers on nice?
Speaker 4 (17:58):

definitely think she's love that we're calling her Jordan now.
Speaker 4 (19:34):

you guys again after a weekend you did go right.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
Justin, we did not go to see F one.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
I saw it. I took my kids and the boys
loved it.
Speaker 6 (24:25):
Yeah, that's actually on the list.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yeah, and they don't like, really love anything. And they
were walking out there like.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
That was so cool.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
All I'm hearing is good things about the F one movie.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Yeah, it's got you have to see it, and I
have to see them.
Speaker 6 (24:35):
Yeah, it's not the same at home.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
This sound is so amazing with the cars and.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
Yeah, yeah, I did take my son to his first
concert this weekend. It was a great experience Shine down
at the Garden. They put on a hell of a show,
and you know, my son's not really into rock music,
but he had a great time.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
I saw the video you posted. He was jumping up
and down. Oh it was perfect.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Well, they had this little section that was kind of
gated off was on the floor so he could mosh
and he could yell and scream and run around. And
by the way, Shine Down puts on a great show man.
There was so many lights, fire explosions. It was great.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I see a lot of marsh pits enables future.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Maybe to go backstage. I saw that. You guys went
to back.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
We went backstage. Shout out to Shine Down, Shout out
to Brent the lead singer. Welcome Dabele for his first concert.
Actually quite a funny moment. He comes backstage and he
says to Able, is this your first concert? And he
says yeah, and he goes, well, thank you for the
honor of us being your first show. And he looked
at him and goes, do you live in a mansion?
Speaker 4 (25:35):
What do you say?
Speaker 6 (25:36):
He just laughed and he said, well, I don't have
one mansion, one big house. I have several smaller houses.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Oh okay, And then.
Speaker 6 (25:42):
He said, but if this show does well tonight, mansion
might be on.
Speaker 18 (25:47):
All right, long time listener, but certainly not the first
one to weave a talk back about this tonight. Billy,
are you going to be next year's host of Dancing
with the Sharks? I do know how much you love
Tom Bergeron's footsteps. I love y'all.
Speaker 6 (26:04):
Yeah, Tom bersuer On return to TV last night. He
has a new show, Dancing with the Sharks.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Oh, I saw a write up about that a couple
of months ago, so that's now on.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Yeah, it premiered last night. So basically, these people get
get in the ocean and they they dance with sharks
like Hammerhead sharks.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Well, don't forget there's a history. Tom Bergeron has a show.
He gives it up. I get it.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Are they in a cage there?
Speaker 6 (26:28):
No, they're I'm not sure the sharks you mean no, No,
they're they're in the.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Wall open water.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
So they they like shark whispers.
Speaker 19 (26:37):
Yeah, yeah, I just thought it was such a novel
idea for a show, and and sort of an affectionate
wink towards my history doing Dancing with the Stars. And
by the way, not to bury the lead. They flew
me to the Bahamas.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
You know, there was a lot to recommend. Yeah, it
was a good ge and he took it.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
Yeah, and you did shows after him, that's yes.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I was just filling on people are talking at Channel four.
And then he did wrap Around, which was a Saturday
morning live show with a bunch of kids. I took
that show over.
Speaker 7 (27:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
And then he did the New News where he'd sit
at the desk of the anchor desk and do entertainment stories.
I replaced him on that. And then when he went
to Hollywood Squares, I called and I said, listen, when
you're ready to leave, just give me a call. I'm
coming to Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
Yeah, that's funny. So you got Tom Bergeron's leftovers.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Absolutely proud too.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
And you know what's funny too, is I'm trying to
get your leftovers.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Yeah, today you're going his TV show?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
All right, Yeah, you're starting today. You're doing Dining Playbook,
first time on TV.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
It's so funny. You're not doing Hollywood Squares.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
D Ray Davis does Hollywood Squares now and not you
that one.
Speaker 12 (27:46):
Now.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I want Dancing with the Sharks if you want to
what I wouldn't give a limb, just a foot, just
drag just the toll and have it on camera.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Kids run away into the morning. Wrap up on Billy
and Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 6 (28:05):
Let's start with the cold play story. It just keeps unfolding.
More details we had this morning. The CEO of astronomer resigned.
Chris Martin talked about it on stage this past weekend.
And then there was the Cabot family. Yeah, so apparently
the woman that was in the video married into the
Cabot family. We had some questions about the Cabot family
where they got the money. We got the answer it
(28:25):
was from rum and slaves and opium.
Speaker 20 (28:28):
Crazy, but hey, it's your girl, Sarah from Maine. This
is literally so random. My husband and I leave tomorrow
for a vacation up to Canada, and part of that
vacation is going to the Cabot family garden tour. This
is a vacation My dad was supposed to go on
and he couldn't for health reasons, so they gave it
to us. Have never heard of the Cabot family, would
(28:51):
never have chosen this, but they gave it to us.
And then now you guys are talking about it the
day before we're leaving, like so random.
Speaker 7 (28:57):
One are the odds?
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Is the garden tour one of theirs?
Speaker 6 (29:00):
I'm assuming I don't know.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
Yeah, there until rum gardens cheese.
Speaker 6 (29:08):
I don't know to do the cheese. That's not that's
not that well.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
They just skipped Vermont and went right to Canada.
Speaker 21 (29:13):
I guess what a morning grew, you know, with a
caddy here follow up on the mayor I caddy for
some of the Cabt relatives and descendants up here on
the North Shore, rum and Opius Baby, let's go.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Wow, it's a.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
Lot of money. It's at a lot of money and.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Liquor and opium.
Speaker 19 (29:30):
Right.
Speaker 6 (29:31):
Yeah. Our top of time this morning came from a
video of a wife that posted on TikTok that she
wanted some advice. Her husband is basically out every single
night while she's home with the two small children. He
says he's not cheating, but she wants to know is
this normal? Is it not normal? And that was the topic.
Speaker 13 (29:46):
I have to comment on the person that was talking
about the husband going out every night. Obviously there's a
lot going on, but I think number one is he
is a nurses.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Yeah, it is very strange, definitely, it couldn't be further
from normal.
Speaker 6 (30:06):
Yeah, it's just so weird because especially we have young kids.
As as parents, you got to work together.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Right, and he's just checking out.
Speaker 6 (30:14):
Every night, had pool, he's out.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
With his friends, driving around, go into the casino.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Yeah, it's kind of one of those stories you see
on social and you think they made it up just
for retention. It's that crazy.
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Yeah, now I believe it though.
Speaker 14 (30:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
Yeah, we had a winner for the Gracy Abrams talkback contest, Leanna,
who is going to surprise her young daughter today when
she picks her up.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
I dropped my daughter off at kim this morning before
I try to wait a little bit.
Speaker 10 (30:38):
We'll get her there a little late.
Speaker 8 (30:40):
To see if we won. So we get when we
pick her up today, she's going to be so happy.
Speaker 6 (30:44):
Yeah. We started this weekend, so you have to be
listening on the iHeartRadio WAP two Kiss went to wait
every time we played Gracy Abrams. You leave a talk back,
you tap the little microphone, and you tell us why
you should win. We're giving out tickets every day leading
up to the shows on Wednesday and Thursday. Thursday morning,
Billy and Lisa, we'll pick a prize winner. That's floor
seats and a trip to La to see Gracie there,
as well as.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
The floor seats here and floor seats in La and
we fly you to La.
Speaker 6 (31:09):
Oh my god. Yeah, crazy and Gracie is coming up
in the ten o'clock hour with the mighty McCabe, so
a lot of stuff to catch up on the podcast.
We also talked about Dancing with the Sharks, which premiered
last night, with Tom Berger on Dancing with the Sharks
was so lame. Okay, well you know it's only the
first episode.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Sorry, Tom. The Mighty one is just inches away. Would
you be so kind when he opened the door.
Hey guys, welcome back. So Lisa is sitting on a
story this morning that suggests that we as a state,
right Lisa, might be among the cheapest tippers on Earth.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Okay, so more than eighty percent of Americans think that
tipping has gotten out of control. So we have a
list of states, the top ten states that are the
worst tippers, and two on the list happen to be
in New England.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Oh boy, two, this is not good for US, folks.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Okay, So number one the worst state is California.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
That makes sense because they make minimum.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Hironing state comes in yep, just cheap.
Speaker 5 (00:42):
No, but California they get a full hourly wage. Yeah,
so people probably like, O, why am I tipping?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Any So the average tip there is just seventeen point
eight percent, and they have the lowest generosity score in
the country.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Never want to be had the lowest.
Speaker 6 (00:56):
General In California, they make fifteen dollars hour. Yeah they do.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Yes, Okay, So number two is the state of Washington.
I don't really think much about Washington's now Number three
is okay, let's is Connecticut?
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Interesting? Chief skates in Connecticut?
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Okay, very very interesting.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
And number four is drum roll please Massachusetts.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Oh, we are in the top five.
Speaker 6 (01:23):
That's not good.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
That's not good.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
And you know it could get worse when no tax
on tips starts January first. A lot of people, when
I bring that up to them at dinner or something,
they immediately say, oh, I'm going right to fifteen percent.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Yeah, I don't get that. I don't either want to
tip the same me too, Yeah, especially they do a
great job.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Okay, do you want to hear what state ranks in
one of the best. Yeah, oh, West Virginia really yep.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
That actually is pretty shocking.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
That shocks me.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
Wow, and Kentucky is right behind them with twenty points.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I wouldn't have expected either of house place.
Speaker 6 (02:03):
Isn't West Virginia one of the poorest? Yes, yes, yeah, yeah,
but they're generous?
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Yeah, very what's the south right technic? It is technically
not really.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Southern hospital high income, high cost states look the worst.
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Maybe because we're so stressed out with everything else we
can't afford to tip twenty five percent.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
You know what's funny about I like to think of
myself as a very generous tip or I old tip
a lot.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
It's good to tip.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Michelle won't even let me sign a check now at
a restaurant because I tipped so much?
Speaker 6 (02:33):
Does she tip twenty percent? She tips normal phase right
around twenty percent? Yeah, nevertheless, but she just grabs the
bill from me. Is she a tip less now person?
Speaker 7 (02:42):
Though?
Speaker 6 (02:42):
Is she going to tip less because of this?
Speaker 1 (02:45):
If I had to guess without asking her point blank,
I would think she'll go to fifteen.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Oh really, I'm going to stay at twenty.
Speaker 6 (02:53):
Me too. It's the I think it's the right thing.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
It's the right thing to do. I was a server, Like,
you get it right, get it like? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
They say, if you have spent any time in the
hospitality world or in the you know, service industry, you're
always going to be a good tipper because you were there. Yeah,
and you lived it.
Speaker 8 (03:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
I'm more judging now than I was before I was
a server.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I see you as a very cheap tip.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
No, I'm like, now, we've talked about this. I started
twenty percent. If you suck, you get eighteen. If you're good,
you get twenty two or twenty five. But I now
know what it's like and when I can tell if
you're actually really busy or if you just are not attentive.
Then that's where excused because there's a difference between being
attentively in the weeds or there's different that you just
(03:37):
don't care about your tables.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Yeah, but see that's not how the weight people see it.
Like they could be the worst waiter on earth, right,
but if you cheap it out on the tip, they're
gonna blame you. They're just gonna say you're It wouldn't
dawn on them that they did a horrible job.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Yeah, maybe I guess if you're I don't know. As
a server, I always did really well because I was
good server, so I didn't really had an issue. It
always works out anyways.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
What you're saying is if you give less than that,
they're not going to get it anyway, because they're not
going to take responsibility.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
They will never do well. I'm just saying more often
than not, they're not going to take the responsibility they
expect their tip.
Speaker 6 (04:12):
See what I do is I tip twenty percent if
they're bad, right, and then if they're really good, then
I'll go up twenty five thirty.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Yeah, somewhere I'm about to.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Send twenty is the baseline for me.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
Yeah, I don't go less than twenty percent. I just don't.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
I don't either.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
What's a booker the bucker two? What does it do
to them?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
It adds up I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (04:32):
I'm saying, like, if you are really we're not good,
why am I tipping you twenty percent?
Speaker 4 (04:36):
If you did not care about me? That doesn't make sense.
Speaker 6 (04:39):
I just don't want them to judge me.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
They're gonna judge you, That's what I'm saying. They're gonna
judge you.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
I'm judging you off of your bad work ethics, so
judge me back.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
See when he's also one of those people that sends
food back, I would never send that. I don't care
if it was burned to a Chris right, I don't either,
not sending it back. I'm gonna sit there with my
burned Crisp steak right and just and tip the same.
It wasn't her fault, she didn't cook.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
It, so doudgie.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
I don't know. I just feel like you're tipping for service,
not it's not manager.
Speaker 6 (05:11):
You know, you know, I have a good morning morning crew.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
You know, I'm just sitting here listen to you guys
talk about worst tippers and all this tippings out of control.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
Then you're right kind of is speaking of tipping? What
about all these talkbackers?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
How come we're not getting tips?
Speaker 6 (05:26):
We're part of the show.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Come on, Uncle Bill, reach into those deep pockets of yours.
It spread some love, Oh boy and Lisa all the morning.
So a couple of minutes ago, Lisa had a story
suggesting that Massachusetts was among the cheapest states in the
country when it comes to tipping.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
It is, it's in the top five. It comes in
at number four.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
How dare they?
Speaker 7 (05:47):
Good Morning Morning crew, I just wanted to comment on
the tipping thing. So Massachusetts, Connecticut, Okay, maybe we just
have higher expectations and maybe the servers are just not
that good.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I don't know about that.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
I think, well, there's good and bad. You know, there's
great service, and those ones that aren't aren't going no
matter where you travel. Yeah, they're outside smoking butts and
then they come into your table and stink.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I still can't believe Kentucky and West Virginia or among
the most generous efforts.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
West Virginia is the most generous on average twenty one percent.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
That is shocking. Yeah, but yeah, I guess they're nicer
in West Virginia and more generous.
Speaker 9 (06:27):
Hey, guys, okay, so about the tipping thing. I'm curious
to hear what you all think about when you get
the automatic like tip request when you're picking up a
Starbucks or like, I don't know, even a pizza or
something where you're simply going in to pay for takeout food.
I also was in the service business back in the day,
(06:48):
and so my automatic is to overtip. But then I
feel like I'm resentful and I'm a people pleaser.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Yeah, I think the rotating iPad is going away. I
haven't seen it nearly as much as it used to.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
I still see it.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
I've seen it. I saw this weekend.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Yeah, so what are you guys do when you're just
picking up takeout? What do you do fifteen percent or
twenty percent?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
It depends on the amount. I guess that you're buying
or getting.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I always don't have I know that out well.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
So if they if they ask you, if they spin
it around, it says you do nothing.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
I hope they turn away and I hit zero. I
hope you're not watching or not.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
I feel like I'm such a people pleaser. I mean true,
I always at least do fifteen or twenty.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Well, you know what I do.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
It's a local, local restaurant, like where I live, I
always do twenty.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
You know what I do because Michelle will order the takeout,
so I don't know what the transaction was on the
phone or online or whatever, which usually orders the takeout
and I pick it up. And I kind of know
that Michelle's careful about tipping. So when I pick up
the takeout, I always I never told Michelle this. I
always ask, so did you get a tip? And then
(07:59):
I ask how much? And I always get extra when
I pick up the takeout. Michelle, she'd kill me well
if she did tip.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Okay, perfect example I was, I'll give more. I was
at the Garden last weekend. Loved the Garden.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
They do it there right at the Idea.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
So we got two hot dogs, a water, and a
coke and it was like forty dollars.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Okay, all right, that's what happened to go there.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
And I didn't tip because I'm like that ten or
twenty percent is like four eight dollars on top of
already paying forty dollars for two hot dogs and two drinks.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
I don't tip on those either. Yeah, I don't really. Yeah,
at restaurants, so I have a server, i'll tip, But
if I get takeout, I just I don't.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
I just feel like I'm being judged.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
You and I think the same. It's just please don't
judge me like I'm a nice person.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
I'll never see you again. I don't care.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Let's go to Sarah online too. Sarah, what do you
think about this whole tipping thing?
Speaker 10 (08:52):
Good morning, it's getting ridiculous. The other night's lumineer's concert,
buying a fifty dollars T shirt at the concession stand
and guy automatically hits ten percent.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Oh see, that's something I probably would not tip on
if I'm buying a merchant now, I would never.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Tip on that.
Speaker 10 (09:08):
No, automatically, one of us paid it, one of us didn't.
And as they're walking away, he says to the person,
thank you to you and not see you.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Oh so, wait a minute. When you bought a T shirt,
they spun the iPad around.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Never heard that before.
Speaker 10 (09:25):
No, they didn't even do that, so it was right
in front of you. Tap and he literally just pushed
the button for ten percent.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
Whoa, that's five bucks at least depending.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
On what you got, and the T shirt's probably eighty.
Speaker 10 (09:38):
The shirt was fifty dollars. We got to them.
Speaker 6 (09:40):
That feels illegal.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
It does, right, Isn't that weird?
Speaker 1 (09:44):
It would never dawn on me to tip if I'm
in the merchandise store or I'm buying a shirt. If
you go and get a shirt or a jacket, you
don't tip.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
Yeah, no, right, I have to be sitting down with
getting service to tip. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (09:59):
I mean, like a dollar at the ice cream stand
or like the coffee shop is one thing.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Okay, keep your dollar, okay, because they're talking about you
if you drop a single dollar.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Yeah, but if it's based on the amount of the bill.
Speaker 5 (10:10):
The other day, I tipped one twenty five at the
ice cream stand. The girl said, thank you so much,
but you're welcome so much.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well, if there are coins, you say, keep the change.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Yeah, I'll the bills. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
I have tipped ice cream places though, because they usually
college kids.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Yeah, skooping that ice cream.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
I was annoying. I asked for a cop after in
a bottle of water.
Speaker 6 (10:32):
I was annoying, bill, you know what she said?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Plus it's kidler Roy and You're waking up with Billy
and Lisa in the morning and Kiss went away Lisa.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Now the entertainment updates with the Billy.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Copstap Lisa, Hey, Kid Hey Busy Weekend Fenway Park this
past weekend, the Luminineers were there for two nights, Thursday
and Friday night. Thomas rad and Teddy Swims were there
Saturday night, and they both showed up Fanuel Hall for
a pop up this weekend. Imagine you're just walking around
(11:22):
Fanuel Hall. Hey, isn't that Tom Mrett and.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
I saw videos of people running through Fanuel Hall. Once
they started performing, people were like, oh my god, he's
so good.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
That album is such a good album came out a
few months ago, really really good.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
And I guess they're doing these pop ups a lot
alone the tour. Teddy Swims talks about it right here.
Speaker 11 (11:42):
We always come trying to do these pop ups, like
we'll just like figure it out as we go. Live music,
live music, celebrating live music, and the non prepared live music,
like we see the show tomorrow. It's always so prepared
and so much goes into it, and like sometimes we
forget how fun live music is to just do live music,
you know, and so we always try to make sure
we do one of these type of things. And it's
(12:02):
like have a have a good unprepared time, and it's
it's it's a blasts you know.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
A Yeah. On stage Saturday night at anyway, Thomas Redd
talked a lot about Boston. Check it.
Speaker 12 (12:13):
I've drank most of your beers out of bar, most
of your bars out of beer. I've eat my weight
and lovester Rolls, tried but failed every time to get
a reservation of that two Oyster, throwing my guts up
on a whale watching tour, and attended my fair share
of Red Sox games. Less to say, this place has
(12:35):
always been and always will be one of my favorite
places to play on the planet.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
And I have a lot more, but I.
Speaker 12 (12:41):
Think the main thing I'm trying to say is that
I have a lot of history in this city.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Man, I love it. I can't get into it neptwn
Oyster either, nobody can.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Well, it only has about eight seats.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
It's like literally like ten. Yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
So earlier, Yeah, we addressed the cold Play kiss scam
scam again. Reports say the cheating CEO resigned over the weekend,
and we had all kinds of stories about the woman who,
apparently before this guy was married to another guy who
was part of the Cabot family in Boston, one of
the richest families in the city.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I always thinking about Cabot Cheese.
Speaker 6 (13:21):
I could be them that wait, is that them?
Speaker 4 (13:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
I know her husband does stuff with rum and like
their latest venture.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
But I'll bet Capid Cabot Cheese is one of them,
Cabots from Vermont. Okay, Cabot Cheese, Okay, Okay, I don't
think it is.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Okay, We're We're at one Cabot Road. I wonder if
it's named after them.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
There's a whole conquest. Yeah, maybe this belongs to them.
I would better be careful what we say them. Another tour,
another incident. Katie Perry's still out there on the road.
During her show in San Francisco this weekend. I don't
know why I find it funny. She flies around on
a giant faked butterfly.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
This is a butterfly. The other one was like a
giant sphere. She needs to be careful.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
This is twice now in this tour, one in Australia,
one in San Francisco.
Speaker 5 (14:20):
This has not been a good tour for her. No
beginning she breaks up with the Land of Bloom. Oh yeah,
function of mishaps.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
She's been crying on the tour and everything talking about
the breakup.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
She cried when she came down from space. Remember controversy.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Honestly, nothing's gone right for her since she went up
to space.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Yeah, a lot of crying Jacks, but everybody's flying around.
Beyonce almost fell out of a car.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Yeah, yeah, the butterfly almost flew away.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
The butterflies fly away? Is that mesing? Didn't post Malone
fall into the stage?
Speaker 6 (14:56):
There was a hole in the state and he was
He got hurt, hurt bad.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Yeah, someone didn't have that moving thing go up.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Yes, she came out of the stage. They never closed
the hole.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
I'm glad you brought that up. I was trying to
remember this se was the one that fell in the hole.
That was post alone. Yeah. Billie Eilish, on tour in England,
announced she's working behind the scenes on a collaboration with
director James Cameron. I can't say much, but I can't
say very special. Somebody James Cameron and.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Well her show.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
She does this very like light saber at like, you know,
I don't know the words you use, but it's a
light show.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Has a light saber.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
No, no, it's a light show like at her concert.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
It's just the flashing little laser lazer the whole time.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Like that's literally what it is.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
So I'm assuming you would like for three D that's
going to be really intense if that's what she's doing.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
With it now.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Phineas still follow her around on two nod first one
without her he's a solo artist.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
Yeah, they had the lightsabers. Come on, Billy.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Did you hear about the incident at the Beyonce show
In the past week she was on tour in Atlanta,
and she's had a lot of incidents. You remember, right
the outset she had to cancel two or three shows
because the production wasn't ready or something. She's had one
incident after another, but this one was all about a bug.
Like people were leaving her concert on the escalators at
(16:32):
the venue and apparently somebody shouted bug or something and
it turned into a stampede.
Speaker 6 (16:37):
Well, I think once once people start moving in panic,
then everybody kind of panics over a buck.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I had an escalator. There's no, give there's this hard metal.
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Then one person I read this, pull out a lightsaber
and she just took the other guy out.
Speaker 13 (16:52):
You know what I.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Meant, not really. Charlie XCX got married this weekend at
George Daniel from the nine teen seventy five, and anytime
we have an excuse to play their song the sound,
we play it. And I really wish I knew that
(17:20):
song when you know it was out well they like
I never really was very aware of the nineteen seventies.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Well he the Matt dated Taylor Sweat rightly for like
two weeks and then that's why we were talking about it.
And then they came to Boston so we could have
gone to the show because then we all got the
merch and we have all.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
The the merch. Chef Hi Phil.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
When I was an intern, when we were in the
building across the street, they came in and they did
a performance. It was Matt Heally and I think that
because they split up it was like two and two.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
I don't remember that.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Yeah, ten years ago, did they have lightsabers on nice?
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Did DoD Vader come to I meant like laser lights?
Speaker 1 (18:02):

This sound is so amazing with the cars and.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
Yeah, yeah, I did take my son to his first
concert this weekend. It was a great experience Shine down
at the Garden. They put on a hell of a show,
and you know, my son's not really into rock music,
but he had a great time.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
I saw the video you posted. He was jumping up
and down. Oh it was perfect.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Well, they had this little section that was kind of
gated off was on the floor so he could mosh
and he could yell and scream and run around. And
by the way, Shine Down puts on a great show man.
There was so many lights, fire explosions. It was great.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I see a lot of marsh pits enables future.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Maybe to go backstage. I saw that. You guys went
to back.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
We went backstage. Shout out to Shine Down, Shout out
to Brent the lead singer. Welcome Dabele for his first concert.
Actually quite a funny moment. He comes backstage and he
says to Able, is this your first concert? And he
says yeah, and he goes, well, thank you for the
honor of us being your first show. And he looked
at him and goes, do you live in a mansion?
Speaker 4 (25:35):
What do you say?
Speaker 6 (25:36):
He just laughed and he said, well, I don't have
one mansion, one big house. I have several smaller houses.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Oh okay, And then.
Speaker 6 (25:42):
He said, but if this show does well tonight, mansion
might be on.
Speaker 18 (25:47):
All right, long time listener, but certainly not the first
one to weave a talk back about this tonight. Billy,
are you going to be next year's host of Dancing
with the Sharks? I do know how much you love
Tom Bergeron's footsteps. I love y'all.
Speaker 6 (26:04):
Yeah, Tom bersuer On return to TV last night. He
has a new show, Dancing with the Sharks.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Oh, I saw a write up about that a couple
of months ago, so that's now on.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Yeah, it premiered last night. So basically, these people get
get in the ocean and they they dance with sharks
like Hammerhead sharks.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Well, don't forget there's a history. Tom Bergeron has a show.
He gives it up. I get it.
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Are they in a cage there?
Speaker 6 (26:28):
No, they're I'm not sure the sharks you mean no, No,
they're they're in the.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Wall open water.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
So they they like shark whispers.
Speaker 19 (26:37):
Yeah, yeah, I just thought it was such a novel
idea for a show, and and sort of an affectionate
wink towards my history doing Dancing with the Stars. And
by the way, not to bury the lead. They flew
me to the Bahamas.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
You know, there was a lot to recommend. Yeah, it
was a good ge and he took it.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
Yeah, and you did shows after him, that's yes.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I was just filling on people are talking at Channel four.
And then he did wrap Around, which was a Saturday
morning live show with a bunch of kids. I took
that show over.
Speaker 7 (27:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
And then he did the New News where he'd sit
at the desk of the anchor desk and do entertainment stories.
I replaced him on that. And then when he went
to Hollywood Squares, I called and I said, listen, when
you're ready to leave, just give me a call. I'm
coming to Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
Yeah, that's funny. So you got Tom Bergeron's leftovers.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Absolutely proud too.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
And you know what's funny too, is I'm trying to
get your leftovers.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Yeah, today you're going his TV show?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
All right, Yeah, you're starting today. You're doing Dining Playbook,
first time on TV.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
It's so funny. You're not doing Hollywood Squares.
Speaker 5 (27:42):
D Ray Davis does Hollywood Squares now and not you
that one.
Speaker 12 (27:46):
Now.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I want Dancing with the Sharks if you want to
what I wouldn't give a limb, just a foot, just
drag just the toll and have it on camera.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
Kids run away into the morning. Wrap up on Billy
and Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 6 (28:05):
Let's start with the cold play story. It just keeps unfolding.
More details we had this morning. The CEO of astronomer resigned.
Chris Martin talked about it on stage this past weekend.
And then there was the Cabot family. Yeah, so apparently
the woman that was in the video married into the
Cabot family. We had some questions about the Cabot family
where they got the money. We got the answer it
(28:25):
was from rum and slaves and opium.
Speaker 20 (28:28):
Crazy, but hey, it's your girl, Sarah from Maine. This
is literally so random. My husband and I leave tomorrow
for a vacation up to Canada, and part of that
vacation is going to the Cabot family garden tour. This
is a vacation My dad was supposed to go on
and he couldn't for health reasons, so they gave it
to us. Have never heard of the Cabot family, would
(28:51):
never have chosen this, but they gave it to us.
And then now you guys are talking about it the
day before we're leaving, like so random.
Speaker 7 (28:57):
One are the odds?
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Is the garden tour one of theirs?
Speaker 6 (29:00):
I'm assuming I don't know.
Speaker 5 (29:03):
Yeah, there until rum gardens cheese.
Speaker 6 (29:08):
I don't know to do the cheese. That's not that's
not that well.

Yeah. Our top of time this morning came from a
video of a wife that posted on TikTok that she
wanted some advice. Her husband is basically out every single
night while she's home with the two small children. He
says he's not cheating, but she wants to know is
this normal? Is it not normal? And that was the topic.
Speaker 13 (29:46):
I have to comment on the person that was talking
about the husband going out every night. Obviously there's a
lot going on, but I think number one is he
is a nurses.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Yeah, it is very strange, definitely, it couldn't be further
from normal.

on social and you think they made it up just
for retention. It's that crazy.

Yeah, now I believe it though.
Speaker 14 (30:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
