Speaker 4 (06:39):
In the morning, Good morning. It is billion Lisa show.
Just in here, and you know what times are tough
for a lot of people out there. A lot of
people are getting side hustles to make extra money. Good
thing for you. Lisa has a list in her hand
right now of the best side hustles with not much
experience needed.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Okay, so number one is be part of a focus scroup. Winnie,
I love this. It pays you about twenty eight dollars
on average. But haven't you done focus group?
Speaker 10 (07:06):
I did a medical study, right, and it was very lucrative.
It was a study took it was it was a
long game. It was like a couple months of my time.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
But it was worth it.
Speaker 6 (07:16):
It actually subjected your body to a study for science.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
It was like it was like forty seven on that Winnie, Yeah, for.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
The commercial in WBZ. As a joke, I said to Winnie,
you should do this, and she did it.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
I did paid.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Thousands, what forty seven hundred dollars?
Speaker 6 (07:29):
So what's the focus group involved?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
It's Basically you just get involved with a study, so
you have to have little to no experience. You just
sign up. You have to obviously follow their rule. But
they're saying that that's the highest paid side hustle right now,
on average twenty eight dollars an.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
Hour an hour.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Wow, Well, some side hustles will pay like thousands over
a period of time.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
You can get paid a lot more for the focus groups. Yes,
you can get up to fifteen hundred dollars per per project,
per per.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Group, right, So that's number one. The second one is
a virtual assistant, so you can just do it right
from your job or from home. That's pays around twenty
six dollars. Website tester twenty five dollars an hour. Dog
walking is close to twenty five dollars an hour. Nannying
twenty one, Online tutoring twenty one. My son Max is
actually tutoring kids. Now he's making fifty bucks an hour.
Speaker 7 (08:16):

Personal assistant twenty bucks an hour, babysitting twenty bucks an
hour now. House cleaning nineteen dollars and eighty two cents,
and then delivery driver is number ten as a side
hustle at around nineteen dollars and sixty cents.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
Can we go back to the dog walker for a second,
because sometimes I'll see a person with like fifteen dogs
walking fifteen of them at a time.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
How does that affect pay?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Like it?
Speaker 11 (08:46):
No?
Speaker 10 (08:46):
I think they charge per dog. They do, so they'll
get twenty dollars a dog per walks.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
And it's usually for you or it's like over like
a two hour period, they'll charge you fifty bucks and
they'll watch your dog for two hours.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
We have a dog walker that's a talkbacker. Maybe he
could he could let us.
Speaker 7 (09:01):
Yeah, dog walkers, I gotta tell you people need them.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
They do dire need of dog walkers.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Yeah. I think that's his main job, walking dogs.
Speaker 7 (09:09):
And they'll take five, six, even ten at a time,
bring them to the park, the run around for a
while and and bring them home and you're done.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And plus you're outside and you with animals and yeah,
nothing to that. They're really happy.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
How do they not get the leashes?
Speaker 6 (09:24):
The guy was all tangled up one.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Where they have belts.
Speaker 10 (09:27):
I've seen them where they have belts that that's where
they put the leash on, so like they have like
around their waist and then they'll attach the leash to
each little hoop.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
But what if they all dash into one direction, they
bring you out in front of a moving car.
Speaker 6 (09:40):
Okay, control the dog, all right, dog walker. I'm gonna
look into that.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Like four, like four or fives. I would totally do.
I already do. I already babies it.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I could do the virtual assistant absolutely.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I feel like that's gonna get taken out by AI
though soon. Yeah, the virtual assistant.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
Hate AI. Explain the virtual assistant what would be involved?
Speaker 10 (10:02):
So you could work for somebody like say Lisa has
a business, like a side hustle, like Lisa's book clubs, right,
and since she's in like La and I signed up
for this website and she's like, oh okay, Whinney has
a similar schedule. She's able to help me from like

provide email and like bookkeeper.
Speaker 6 (10:29):
This is good for producer. Riley right would be good
with this, and she's a very nice person.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Well, I think, honestly everyone needs a side hustle. Oh yeah,
I think you can't be a one trick pony anymore. No,
you got to like mix it up.
Speaker 10 (10:39):

of living. You need that will cover your bills, and

Planet's Fitness Kiss one O eight Studios, Oy're back with
a Billy and Lisa in the Morning on kiss.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Hey, good morning, everybody, Welcome back. Billy and Lisa show
justin here rocking on a Friday morning. And Lisa's book
club just keeps getting bigger. I mean she had mel Robbins,
she had Charlemagne and coming up April second. Jeff Benedict,
who wrote the book that the Apple TV docu series
The Dynasty was based on. He spent five years with
(12:28):
the Patriots writing this book. He's gonna be at Lisa's
book Club, but first he joined us on the Billy
and Lisa Show.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Hey, Jeff, you there.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
Hi, good morning, So Jennifer, I gotta make a point here,
if you don't mind. Okay, I know New York Times Bestseller,
Emmy Award winner, Right, I'm not mistaken, right, keep going.
Speaker 6 (12:50):
Hundreds of stories and essays.
Speaker 7 (12:53):
And you did Lebron James, you did Tiger Woods, obviously
the Dynasty. But you know what, Jeff, you haven't done
Lisa Dunovan's book Club yet.
Speaker 6 (13:04):
Welcome to the Octagon.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Exactly the mother of all book club.
Speaker 6 (13:10):
I was waiting for the punchline. Now you got it.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Yeah, Well, thank you so much, Jeff for doing this.
Lisa doing a fabulous show with the book club. And
I think you're really really going to enjoy the experience.
Speaker 14 (13:22):
I can't wait, really looking forward to it. I think
it's tremendous and it's also great just because it's right
in the heart of Boston. So as a New Englander,
I'm looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I mean, Jeff, we as a group here we would
come in and watch the docuseries The Dynasty on Apple TV,
and then we would come in and just talk about it, right.
Speaker 7 (13:44):
Yeah, because there were so many parts that just gave
us so many questions and I got a lot of
chills during the docu series justin you want to play
a clip from the Brady Revenge Tour that season.
Speaker 13 (13:56):
It was like a song from Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
He was like, look what you made me do?
Speaker 4 (14:05):
It was an a year. I'm all baby said that
for a long time. Not pooling for us anyway.
Speaker 6 (14:14):
Gray Drive first again a touchdown.
Speaker 12 (14:23):
This dude is on another level to begin with, I'll
scare his hell.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
Brady right now.
Speaker 12 (14:32):
You could tell he was angry and we're like the
King is back here he goes.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Watch him get pissed off and.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
Go, Jeff, do you still get the chills when you
watch or hear some of this?
Speaker 14 (14:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (14:48):
Actually I do.
Speaker 14 (14:48):
I Mean one of the things that was for me
at least, that was really satisfying and fun about making
the documentary that was different than the book is that
we got to use music like we use Taylor Swift,
the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Freddie Mercury as a way
to really bring emotion and power to some of the
scenes in the film that it's obviously a very different medium.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
Than the book.
Speaker 14 (15:12):
The book will always be probably the thing I love
the most because I spent a few years with the
Patriots team writing that book while Tom was in his
final two seasons in New England. By the time we
made the documentary, Tom was gone and things were different.
But it was just an opportunity to do something on
television that you can't do on the page.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
One of the things that we talked about a lot
when we were watching it was that it seemed like
it was a little harsh on Belichick. Would you agree
with that?
Speaker 6 (15:45):
Not really?
Speaker 14 (15:45):
I mean I think I actually thought we were pretty
soft on Bill, you know. I think what's jarring for
people though, and the reason I understand why some people
think that, and that's a feeling that's actually pretty limited
to New England and particularly like hardcore Pats fans, but
is that you're seeing Bill on television in an environment
(16:08):
that you never see him in before. Bill doesn't really
do interviews. He does press conferences and he kind of
has a stick that he does in a press conference.
In this situation, he was in a very foreign environment.
He's sitting in an interview chair being asked questions that
he's really never had to deal with before, and so
he looks very stiff, he looks uncomfortable, and the fact
(16:31):
is he was stiff and uncomfortable in that environment. But
I think if you look at the series in its totality,
what you do see is you see who Bill is.
He was a very tough, taciturned successful football coach who
had a huge part in why the Patriots were so
dominant for twenty years. And then you contrast that with Tom,
(16:52):
who's kind of the other half of that equation, and
their personalities are very different, but the way they came together,
it's pretty remarkable what they achieved. But I mean, look,
you're seeing Bill as Bill in the series.
Speaker 7 (17:07):
So did you get calls or email or text from
Bill or from Robert or from Tom the first time
they saw the docuseries?
Speaker 6 (17:16):
No, no, no, I mean I would never.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
I mean.
Speaker 14 (17:22):
I definitely heard a lot. Well, you know, look, you
get to know people as I was in this thing
for five or six years, right, I mean I worked
on these two things back to back. I went from
the book to the series, so like five or six
years of my life was invested in telling the dynasty
story in two different mediums, and you get to know
people pretty well and the organization well. And I feel
(17:45):
like I know that organization really well and the people
who are in it, and have a tremendous amount of
respect for everything that was done there, starting with the
crafts and how they built it and sustained it over
that twenty years. It's a remarkable run. By the way,
no team is going to catch them. The Chiefs, in
my opinion, at least, had very little chance of ever
(18:07):
replicating what the Patriots did.
Speaker 7 (18:09):
Now, the Aaron Hernandez chapter must have been a difficult
for you to navigate.
Speaker 14 (18:17):
I mean, as a storyteller, it really wasn't that hard.
Look a ton has been written and said about that case.
And the nice thing is I wasn't writing a book
about Aaron Hernandez, nor would I want to. It's a
pretty depressing subject. However, if you're going to write a
definitive history of the Patriots dynasty over a twenty year period,
you can't just kind of skip over that like it
(18:39):
didn't happen. It's a part of the dynasty that actually
happens right in the middle of the two Super Bowl runs,
the first run in the early two thousands and then
the back end run in the.
Speaker 6 (18:50):
Late twenty teens.
Speaker 14 (18:52):
Hernandez sits right in the middle of that, and that's
kind of a little bit of a dark spot. And
so I mean, I covered it in the book over
like a couple of chapters. In the series, we dealt
with that whole thing within one episode.
Speaker 7 (19:08):
I can't even imagine the relationship between you and the
videographers and the editors taking your story, putting it to film,
putting it to pictures. It just seems like such a
complicated process.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
It is.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
That's why it took over five years.
Speaker 10 (19:27):
Lost in It's Saint McCrae and you're waking up with
Billy and Lisa in the morning on Kiss Wanta Ahi, Lisa.
Speaker 6 (19:33):
Okay, we want to talk about office etiquette. And you
went down to the DMS right justin you got a DM.
Speaker 10 (19:38):
Well.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
I was scrolling through the Billy and Lisa Topic Time
Suggestions list aka my DMS, and this one came from
one of our listeners. They said they love Topic Time.
They listen every single day and they thought a fun topic.
I think this is their workplace. They think a fun
topic for topic time would be office etiquette, you know,
sharing space in the refrigerator, weird things that people do,
(20:01):
like taking up too much space, taking other people's food,
and just not being courteous. Yes, and that's a big issue.
And then yesterday, you know, we have this silly preset
you know, friendly feud going on with jamming down the
hall with a new feature on the iHeart app, the
preset feature, and they accused Billy and I of being grotesque.
Well me, They accused me of blowing up the men's
bathroom and a Billy of shaving in the morning and
(20:24):
leaving his you know, hair all over.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
The sink, which is and you guys denied it both, Well,
I'll deny it. Yeah, Okay, so it's made up.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
It's made up.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Well, Justin's is Billy does shave hair.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
I haven't seen it firsthand.
Speaker 7 (20:38):
What if I were to shave, I would rinse out
the bowl, okay, because that would be office etiquette. Yes,
Do I look like a guy that leaves sprinklings of
his hair?
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (20:48):
Actually I know you very intimately. Lisa and I share
space with you, not in a weird way. Lisa and
I share this space with you. Every day, Right, you're
sandwiching between her and I. You leave trash, coffee cup
food dom that.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Was in the past. No, I was just getting back
at people that were leaving.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
We were we clean out after Yeah, everybody.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
The coffee cup thing is a real problem with Bill.
He drinks half a cup of coffee and he that
leaves it in your studio, the main studio or mine
every day.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
I throw it away.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Okay, So I have a big reveal here, so talking
about food and the refrigerator and like milk and stuff
like that. I did one time because there were no
coffee little creamers and they had like that horrible French
vanilla can't stand. I used someone's milk. I don't know
who it was.
Speaker 6 (21:33):
Reator this is a confession.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I only did it once, but I was desperate and
I just used literally like a drop.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
Oh you didn't. You didn't leave it empty.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Now, I just used a drop so that this person,
whoever is in the office would not notice. But this
is a con.
Speaker 7 (21:54):
First of all, I'm afraid to open that refrigerator for
fear of what's in it.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
But I also did once. This was probably a violation.
Speaker 7 (22:03):
I was out of peanut butter, and I knew someone
had a jar in a cabinet, and so I toasted
my thing and then went up and used their peanut butter.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
Okay, all right, can I talk about a major violation.
I want to go there right now.
Speaker 7 (22:20):
Some bottom feeder this past week threw their gum on
the floor and stomped it into the carpet right at
the entrance of this studio.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
I would love to know who we know this carpet.
So I didn't know what to do. I was so
disgusted by it. And then Lisa was on her hands
and knees scraping up the gum.
Speaker 6 (22:40):
I came in.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
I used to fork and a knife and then we
used some.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
Like hands rubbing, and.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I got I broke it up and we got it off.
Speaker 7 (22:49):
But imagine walking into the studio I heart worldwide right
and just opening the door and spitting the gum out
on the floor and walking away.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
What on a creature?
Speaker 13 (23:01):
Like?
Speaker 6 (23:02):
Where does that person.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Assume it was an accident? The only person that could
have been it's a small staff.
Speaker 6 (23:07):
There's no incident with gum.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Mikey Gianna McCabe.
Speaker 10 (23:11):
Just there or honestly, Billy cost stuff because like I
said it could be an.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
I chew gum. I don't think I did it, but
what I chew gum every day? I chew gum.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
I don't chew gum here.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Why don't you gum on the radio?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I think the other big office etique thing is taking
stuff off of people's desks.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Yeap, oh billion, I do that.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
I've done that before.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I've never done that with pleasure.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
No, we did it during COVID and no one was
coming in. We we literally hijacked all the salespeople's desks.
We took all their pens, we took their white out,
we took every We didn't.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Know if we were if anyone was ever coming back.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
Yeah, I used somebody has a box of fresh tissues
on the desk.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
I always are communal tissues. Yeah, that's like office tissues.
Speaker 10 (23:52):
I took a mouse one time because I need a
cordless mouse because mine died or something like that. But
it was off a desk that looked like no one was.
We have a lot of jests out there that are
not occupied. Like we have a huge area where it's
cubical cubicle cubicle and.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
It looks like one that no one used.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
So I just took the mouse.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
But hypothetically, what would be the worst violation of office etiquette?
Speaker 4 (24:14):
It's good question. I'd say the food one is the
big one, especially you know if you're heating up food,
things like fish.
Speaker 6 (24:22):
Good morning.
Speaker 9 (24:23):
This is Jimmy from Quinsy and office etiquette. First, I
want to say, as far as microwave, if you splatter,
clean it up, use a cover.
Speaker 6 (24:36):
No fish and tuna is fish. Tuna is fish.
Speaker 7 (24:40):
And if there's food given for everybody, like in severance,
you don't steal it and take it all and hide
it in your desk.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
That's a good one. And also if you have something
in the refrigerator, clean it out so it doesn't start
to smell.
Speaker 6 (24:54):
Yeah, oh, no one does that.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
We get the email once a month from the people
here and they say we're clean out the fridge and
now they're sending pictures. Now have you seen that on
the company email office pictures? They send pictures to shame
the people that leave their food in that.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I love that.
Speaker 7 (25:09):
Always been afraid of the refrigerator here, I'm telling you
I won't open the door. I think if I do,
an animal that's just gonna jump. You have no idea,
what's going on in that refrigerator.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Yeah, it's an interesting office.
Speaker 10 (25:21):
We also have a unique situation where we're like doing
live radio where people are.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Working out there. So I think like one thing for us.
Speaker 10 (25:28):
Which is huge, what no one else would really know
if they weren't in radio is when we're on air,
if somebody tries to come in here or look in here,
it's super distracting.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
It's super rude.
Speaker 10 (25:37):
And that's like my biggest pet peeve that no one
else would really know in another office. But like for us,
that's office etiquette where you're interrupting our live show.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
And they like peek in.
Speaker 6 (25:47):
Or they'll try to get fat the glass.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
I see those person.
Speaker 10 (25:50):
We'll come to talk about something that has nothing to
do with anything at nine InCom like I'm sorry, we're
on air for another hour, Like you can come back later.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
The food thing is the big one for me. Yeah,
the food thing is the big one. Like you know, like, hey,
sales guy, I don't want him next to me.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
He smells like tune.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Of fish kiss.
Speaker 7 (26:11):
All right, it is a topic time we kicked it
off earlier. Office etiquette, what's bugging you about the office
place and who's doing it and why we said some
of ours. Let's go to Jenny right away. So Jenny's
on the phoneses good morning, Jenny. Where you're calling from?
Speaker 8 (26:28):
Hi, Billy, I'll call him from my car in Boston. Okay, off,
my grandson.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
I give us some office etiquette violations.
Speaker 8 (26:37):
So a big one for us is when we open
our bathroom doors and there's our employees that don't flush
the toilet. Yes, so they walk away from that and
we have to go in and see that. That's a
big one job. And then another one is like I
don't like when I go in the morning and no
one says good morning to each other, Like we're just
(27:00):
walk by each other and we don't see good morning.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
Back to the pea, back to the peeing situation. There's
somebody that works overnight here almost every morning they pee
and the toilet and never flush it.
Speaker 8 (27:12):
Because when I go in with something, he would be okay, Yeah,
the piece probably someone okay, But when is the other
thing that makes it?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
You know, Yeah, it's disgusting. There's someone in that woman
that does that here.
Speaker 6 (27:26):
It doesn't flush number two.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
It's so gross. Anyway, Jenny, by the way, good morning, sunshine.
Speaker 6 (27:33):
How's that? There's your good morning? Okay?
Speaker 7 (27:36):
Jenny from the Billy and leaves the morning show. Karen's
on the phone next from Danvers. Hey, Karen, what have
you got Hi?
Speaker 8 (27:44):
Good morning? So flipping your nail I've heard it.
Speaker 11 (27:49):
It's disgusting, and people do it.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
I totally agree. Not in the office, and.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
I think they don't think you hear it.
Speaker 10 (27:58):
But it's a.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Pretty it is.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
I did it once.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
What's wrong with you?
Speaker 12 (28:05):
For what?
Speaker 7 (28:06):
Right by the printer? It is like four point thirty
in the morning. I was by the printer. There's a
trash can right there.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
You've hit all the violations.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
All of them.
Speaker 7 (28:13):
No, I've been accused of violations that I wasn't responsible
for by him, not by Bud. I'm admitting. I'm coming clean.
I did my nails out and do my nails. I
cleaned my nails once. This at least this is also
Billy right here.
Speaker 13 (28:25):
My biggest office pet peeve is when you're working next
to someone and they huff and puff and slam the keyboard,
the keys on the keyboard or grab papers because they're
too stressed or aggravated, and then it's just.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Nope, can't do it can't work with that.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
Yeah, that's Bill that morning, huffing and puffing, slamming keyboards,
you kick the printer.
Speaker 10 (28:49):
It's yeah, I can't stand you when you get into
your mood, like you'll like one thing will set you off.
That's like not even that big of a deal, but
like big things you don't mention, and then it's like
a little thing and then you get so annoyed that
you like throw headphones, you throw you kick things, You
like say, oh I hate this spice, I'm done, and
then in a minute later you're like, oh, when I
love you, you know, well.
Speaker 7 (29:09):
One day I lifted a full sized.
Speaker 6 (29:13):
Printer you remember when do you remember? Yeah, over my
head and smashed it on the floor. Yeapeah, you remember.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Like he'll be writing in his news and he'll get
all messed up. I'm not Yeah, that's him.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I think I should get paid as like morning show psychologists. Yeah,
because over the years I've literally like talked you down
like out of like doing something really crazy.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Every morning, it's like the end of the world until
six o'clock.
Speaker 10 (29:38):
From like four thirty six, you're like just like this
grumpy person that doesn't want to do anything.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Doesn't like any ideas like hysterical.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
Actually so much so that you know, Billy and Lisa
are on WBZ TV every morning at six fifty five
with Chris and Paula. Yeah, really check and check it out.
It's awesome. But when we were planning it, they were like,
you want to do it around like six am? And
I go, no, that is Billy time. That's unpredictable Billy time.
Speaker 10 (30:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're gonna Bill Bill O'Reilly like
moment from him.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
We'll do it live. We'll do it.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
We're doing it live. You'll belling at like Chris and
Paula be really awkward.
Speaker 11 (30:17):
Good morning, guys. Love This topic got two quick ones.
Speaker 13 (30:21):
There's a man who walks by my office every morning
at nine thirty with the newspaper and heads into the bathroom.
Speaker 11 (30:29):
He e meges from the bathroom about fifteen second. Fifteen
minutes later, another guy walks around barefoot.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Oh no, I don't like walk around.
Speaker 6 (30:43):
Yes, I have walked.
Speaker 10 (30:45):
Around bear foot for certain reasons, but I don't do
it like every day. I've done it pretty frequent with
the barefoot No, I'm not freaking with it. It happened
occasionally due to some strengul way. I can't say the
word extend you circumstances.
Speaker 7 (31:01):
There's something else now that we're on it, Okay, since
I've been.
Speaker 6 (31:04):
The target so far, we need there's something else you do.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
Like about ten times a morning you stand right next
to you, right, and about ten times.
Speaker 6 (31:13):
A morning at least you know where I'm going, you.
Speaker 7 (31:15):
Will like lift your arms up and stretch like everything.
Speaker 6 (31:22):
Okay, I'm stretching.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
I need to eat limber to do the board.
Speaker 6 (31:29):
And you're doing it barefoot, so at least you're comfortable.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
She's a barefoot stretcher, you know what I mean. We
also mentioned here that someone's bit gum out on the
carpet right outside the studio. We don't know who it was.
Lisa cleaned it up. Thank you for that, Lisa.
Speaker 12 (31:42):
I am vouching for McCabe that he didn't do it.
There was no gum on his shoe last night at
Lisa's book club. We have this running joke when Billy
used to talk about McCabe's feet being tiny, We compare
and take a picture of the feet every time we
see him.
Speaker 6 (31:59):
So he was good. Leave my mquith alone. Okay. Oh,
wasn't one of my suspects on the gum?
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Do you have a main suspect?
Speaker 7 (32:09):
A couple of people I'm thinking about, but you're one
of them, by the way. Let's go to Haley in Summerville.
Good morning, Hayley.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
What have you got Hi?
Speaker 5 (32:17):
Guys? I cannot stand till. I work in special education
at Franciscan Children's so we work with really behavioral students
and I can't stand it when I need like a
minute on my break and I'm sitting in the lumps
room and I get bombarded by five people who just
kind of invite themselves to my table.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
So you want to be alone? You want a loan time?
Speaker 5 (32:37):
I want to be alone. I love I'm such a
personable person. I love people. But everybody, if you're in
this field, you know you need that thirty minutes of
just quiet.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
So I can't respect that. Yeah, ye, just back off right,
leave her alone?
Speaker 6 (32:50):
My Yeah, good morning. Jennifer's calling from Waymouth. Boy. We're
all over the road here, go ahead, Jennifer.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Okay.
Speaker 15 (32:57):
When showing uses the bathroom and then they spray so
much spray you can smell it.
Speaker 11 (33:01):
Throughout the entire office, and you feel like you ate
the cannon.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
It's like, how much spray.
Speaker 6 (33:08):
Do you need? Yeah, we don't have spray in our restrooms.
Speaker 4 (33:11):
We do not. We might have an automatic one, but
not not the ones that you can spray. But I
know what she means. When you spray too much, it goes,
It goes in your mouth. You can't get the test out.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
How about someone who wears too much cologne or perfume
in the office. Oh god, that's also another problem.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
And then you smell like them for the rest of
the day. You can't get rid of it.
Speaker 7 (33:30):
And since we're on the topic of fragrance, uber drivers
lift drivers, if you're listening, stop with the fragrance. Every
time you get in the car. It takes your breath away.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
It's so strong.
Speaker 4 (33:39):
It's too they have to turn turn the dial down.
Speaker 6 (33:41):
Oh my god, it's like, really, I put it at
the lowest setting.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Go morning, Morning crew. I actually work in a office
and I listen every single day.
Speaker 12 (33:51):
We put Billion Lisa on as soon as we come
in at seven and the radio doesn't shut off till
we leave at five. Workplace etiquette is huge, you guys, listen.
Speaker 10 (34:00):
We love I love everyone that I work with and
they love me, But there are certain people in my
office that do not have workplace etiquette, and they've been
there for.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Twenty five plus years.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
Sometimes it's the oldest dog that can't learn the new tricks.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Very true.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
I wonder what the violations were.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
I don't know, Yeah, I don't know. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (34:20):
We just moved to a beautiful new space in Boston
and all the offices are glass and I walk by
this one office and this person is soaking their disgusting
foot in a round tup aware container.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
Oh my god, way to mess up the new building.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
What is that about? That's is someone going to use
that tup aware after?
Speaker 7 (34:50):
Uh? Let's hey, let's go to Bridgewater and Brandon, Brandon
and Bridgewater.
Speaker 6 (34:54):
Hello, what have you got?
Speaker 13 (34:56):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (34:56):
Good morning? How are you now?
Speaker 16 (34:59):
I was just thinking it means they is.
Speaker 5 (35:00):
It's probably better if people.
Speaker 16 (35:01):
Don't talk about politics in the office, you know, That's true.
Have a hot topic these days, and you don't want
to be going to work every day with somebody that
suddenly you look at it, you know, and they're just like,
you know, pushing the wrong buttons or whatever.
Speaker 10 (35:17):
I agree with him, Yeah, this is not Yeah, we
don't do politics around here.
Speaker 4 (35:21):
You just can't because you can't, you know, no matter
what side you're on. Then people yell.
Speaker 10 (35:26):
It's it's funny you kind of know though, like you
to know who stands where.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
You don't have to talk about it though.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
Yeah, well you just.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
Respect the other person. Yeah, yeah, I mean Brandon. If
anyone did that, I'm sorry.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
Oh I'm sorry.
Speaker 7 (35:41):
I'm genuinely sorry.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
Noo.
Speaker 7 (35:45):
Amanda is in Marlborough. Amanda, give us a good one.
Speaker 15 (35:50):
Hi.
Speaker 11 (35:50):
So, I work in healthcare and one of my biggest hyppies,
you know, being in her for all for working health
care is people that go out and smoke or face
during the day. Yeah, because everybody's trying to stay on
schedule and take care of everybody around them, and you know,
you're looking for help and they're out on their fifteenth
smoke breakup the day and it just drives me crazy.
(36:12):
And then plus the smell when they come back in.
Speaker 6 (36:14):
Oh, you're so right, and they don't know you're still smelling.
Speaker 11 (36:17):
It's sure, but you see no, no, and they always
try to cover it up too, which makes it just
that much worse.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:24):
You see them outside the buildings all the time, just
kind of standing there.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
And think about it.
Speaker 10 (36:28):
They get more time break than we do if you
don't smoke, because you smoke breaks. And how can you
mean healthcare and smoke and date?
Speaker 4 (36:34):
That just seems kind of Some hospitals don't hire you
if you're a smoker. They test you, they do some
kind of test. I've heard of that.
Speaker 7 (36:41):
And they still have those weird pedestals outside the buildings.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
Some buildings happen, right, Yeah. I used to the courthouse
down the street here. They had a sand ash.
Speaker 6 (36:51):
Oh yeah, so.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
You don't stub them out, you just stick it in
the sand.
Speaker 7 (36:54):
And then there were like thirty cigarette buds popping out
of the sand.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
So you know, obviously I had some trouble in my
younger years when I, you know, had nothing to go
there when the lawyers would come out and then they'd
have to run back into that and I'd I'd sneak
up and take all the half cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (37:10):
You could create a full pack.
Speaker 4 (37:11):
And I'd have cigarettes.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
For the pack. That is quite the hack.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
What would you keep the butts in?
Speaker 4 (37:18):
I'd have an empty cigarette pack, so I'd have a
pack full of like half smoking but really grossy, let's.
Speaker 7 (37:23):
Cross the border to Nashua in New Hampshire, genality have one.
Speaker 15 (37:28):
Yeah, so I would have to say mine is coffee creamers.
I worked at a dental office a few years ago
and the doctor was a new grad and she used
to drink everybody's creamer in the office and then claim
that she would never do it because she's a doctor
and has money. I could smell my oat milk creamer
in her cup every day.
Speaker 6 (37:48):
Oh, I thought she was just drinking the creamer.
Speaker 15 (37:53):
Pretty weird, cremer.
Speaker 10 (37:55):
That's such a billy move, though. That's such a billy
move to say I wouldn't take it.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
I have money.
Speaker 6 (38:01):
I wouldn't say that. You would say that. You would
say money.
Speaker 10 (38:06):
If I ever get caught stealing, I'll say I could
buy the whole store, take my card.
Speaker 6 (38:10):
Why would I kill once?
Speaker 2 (38:16):
And work etiquette? How late is it too late to
call one of your employees?
Speaker 6 (38:22):
Because my boss.
Speaker 13 (38:23):
Loves to call me in the middle of dinner, seven
thirty at night, eight o'clock at night, seven am, never end.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
When is when you say stuck?
Speaker 6 (38:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (38:35):
You gotta say boundaries do yeah? Yeah, especially if you
have a family, kids, family time.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Well, Bill calls me at all hours of the day,
So I don't mind though. I just pick up the phone.
Speaker 6 (38:46):
Time you don't. Most of the time you don't know.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Well, I keep my phone on silent. I like to
be in control of the phone. That's how it is. Plus,
I don't want to upset you because of your little freakouts.
You get upset. We talked about that earlier. Yeah, you
know you don't push bill between what are the hours
when oh four and six, four thirty and six is
prime billion times tomorrow and that is it?
Speaker 7 (39:10):
Yeah, five four three, that's tomorrow and that is it
for us today.

The royalties on that song is in the millions.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
I love that for him.
Speaker 7 (02:33):
Maybe he should have hung out with Shifty and they
could have done a collaboration and then it would have
been more than one hit.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
It would have been a two hit wonder Yeah, just
saying round two one hit Wonders finished the lyric Lisa last.
Speaker 6 (02:48):
Piet need no Chi.

meth addiction. Yeah, listen, you would take so there. I

Speaker 4 (06:39):
In the morning, Good morning. It is billion Lisa show.
Just in here, and you know what times are tough
for a lot of people out there. A lot of
people are getting side hustles to make extra money. Good
thing for you. Lisa has a list in her hand
right now of the best side hustles with not much
experience needed.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Okay, so number one is be part of a focus scroup. Winnie,
I love this. It pays you about twenty eight dollars
on average. But haven't you done focus group?
Speaker 10 (07:06):
I did a medical study, right, and it was very lucrative.
It was a study took it was it was a
long game. It was like a couple months of my time.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
But it was worth it.
Speaker 6 (07:16):
It actually subjected your body to a study for science.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
It was like it was like forty seven on that Winnie, Yeah, for.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
The commercial in WBZ. As a joke, I said to Winnie,
you should do this, and she did it.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
I did paid.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Thousands, what forty seven hundred dollars?
Speaker 6 (07:29):
So what's the focus group involved?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
It's Basically you just get involved with a study, so
you have to have little to no experience. You just
sign up. You have to obviously follow their rule. But
they're saying that that's the highest paid side hustle right now,
on average twenty eight dollars an.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
Hour an hour.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Wow, Well, some side hustles will pay like thousands over
a period of time.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
You can get paid a lot more for the focus groups. Yes,
you can get up to fifteen hundred dollars per per project,
per per.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Group, right, So that's number one. The second one is
a virtual assistant, so you can just do it right
from your job or from home. That's pays around twenty
six dollars. Website tester twenty five dollars an hour. Dog
walking is close to twenty five dollars an hour. Nannying
twenty one, Online tutoring twenty one. My son Max is
actually tutoring kids. Now he's making fifty bucks an hour.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Wait a minute, Max Donovan is making fifty bucks an hour.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah, he's tutoring for middle schoolers. Online tutoring twenty one.
Personal assistant twenty bucks an hour, babysitting twenty bucks an
hour now. House cleaning nineteen dollars and eighty two cents,
and then delivery driver is number ten as a side
hustle at around nineteen dollars and sixty cents.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
Can we go back to the dog walker for a second,
because sometimes I'll see a person with like fifteen dogs
walking fifteen of them at a time.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
How does that affect pay?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Like it?
Speaker 11 (08:46):
No?
Speaker 10 (08:46):
I think they charge per dog. They do, so they'll
get twenty dollars a dog per walks.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
And it's usually for you or it's like over like
a two hour period, they'll charge you fifty bucks and
they'll watch your dog for two hours.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
We have a dog walker that's a talkbacker. Maybe he
could he could let us.
Speaker 7 (09:01):
Yeah, dog walkers, I gotta tell you people need them.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
They do dire need of dog walkers.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Yeah. I think that's his main job, walking dogs.
Speaker 7 (09:09):
And they'll take five, six, even ten at a time,
bring them to the park, the run around for a
while and and bring them home and you're done.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
And plus you're outside and you with animals and yeah,
nothing to that. They're really happy.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
How do they not get the leashes?
Speaker 6 (09:24):
The guy was all tangled up one.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Where they have belts.
Speaker 10 (09:27):
I've seen them where they have belts that that's where
they put the leash on, so like they have like
around their waist and then they'll attach the leash to
each little hoop.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
But what if they all dash into one direction, they
bring you out in front of a moving car.
Speaker 6 (09:40):
Okay, control the dog, all right, dog walker. I'm gonna
look into that.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Like four, like four or fives. I would totally do.
I already do. I already babies it.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
I could do the virtual assistant absolutely.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I feel like that's gonna get taken out by AI
though soon. Yeah, the virtual assistant.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
Hate AI. Explain the virtual assistant what would be involved?
Speaker 10 (10:02):
So you could work for somebody like say Lisa has
a business, like a side hustle, like Lisa's book clubs, right,
and since she's in like La and I signed up
for this website and she's like, oh okay, Whinney has
a similar schedule. She's able to help me from like
noon to two on Monday Wednesday, and I would virtually
meet with her or email her and she tell me

Speaker 4 (10:23):
Sent Out's calendar is handle phone, call, set up travel,
provide email and like bookkeeper.
Speaker 6 (10:29):
This is good for producer. Riley right would be good
with this, and she's a very nice person.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Well, I think, honestly everyone needs a side hustle. Oh yeah,
I think you can't be a one trick pony anymore. No,
you got to like mix it up.
Speaker 10 (10:39):
It doesn't matter what you're making in your main source
of living. You need that will cover your bills, and
then you need one for like savings, and then you

three or four people at the same time at the house.
One could be and the plunge, one is in the
hot tub, the other on was on the weights in

Speaker 2 (11:54):

Speaker 1 (11:57):
Lisa in the.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Planet's Fitness Kiss one O eight Studios, Oy're back with
a Billy and Lisa in the Morning on kiss.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Hey, good morning, everybody, Welcome back. Billy and Lisa show
justin here rocking on a Friday morning. And Lisa's book
club just keeps getting bigger. I mean she had mel Robbins,
she had Charlemagne and coming up April second. Jeff Benedict,
who wrote the book that the Apple TV docu series
The Dynasty was based on. He spent five years with
(12:28):
the Patriots writing this book. He's gonna be at Lisa's
book Club, but first he joined us on the Billy
and Lisa Show.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Hey, Jeff, you there.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
Hi, good morning, So Jennifer, I gotta make a point here,
if you don't mind. Okay, I know New York Times Bestseller,
Emmy Award winner, Right, I'm not mistaken, right, keep going.
Speaker 6 (12:50):
Hundreds of stories and essays.
Speaker 7 (12:53):
And you did Lebron James, you did Tiger Woods, obviously
the Dynasty. But you know what, Jeff, you haven't done
Lisa Dunovan's book Club yet.
Speaker 6 (13:04):
Welcome to the Octagon.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Exactly the mother of all book club.
Speaker 6 (13:10):
I was waiting for the punchline. Now you got it.
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Yeah, Well, thank you so much, Jeff for doing this.
Lisa doing a fabulous show with the book club. And
I think you're really really going to enjoy the experience.
Speaker 14 (13:22):
I can't wait, really looking forward to it. I think
it's tremendous and it's also great just because it's right
in the heart of Boston. So as a New Englander,
I'm looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
I mean, Jeff, we as a group here we would
come in and watch the docuseries The Dynasty on Apple TV,
and then we would come in and just talk about it, right.
Speaker 7 (13:44):
Yeah, because there were so many parts that just gave
us so many questions and I got a lot of
chills during the docu series justin you want to play
a clip from the Brady Revenge Tour that season.
Speaker 13 (13:56):
It was like a song from Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
He was like, look what you made me do?
Speaker 4 (14:05):
It was an a year. I'm all baby said that
for a long time. Not pooling for us anyway.
Speaker 6 (14:14):
Gray Drive first again a touchdown.
Speaker 12 (14:23):
This dude is on another level to begin with, I'll
scare his hell.
Speaker 4 (14:27):
Brady right now.
Speaker 12 (14:32):
You could tell he was angry and we're like the
King is back here he goes.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
Watch him get pissed off and.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
Go, Jeff, do you still get the chills when you
watch or hear some of this?
Speaker 14 (14:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (14:48):
Actually I do.
Speaker 14 (14:48):
I Mean one of the things that was for me
at least, that was really satisfying and fun about making
the documentary that was different than the book is that
we got to use music like we use Taylor Swift,
the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Freddie Mercury as a way
to really bring emotion and power to some of the
scenes in the film that it's obviously a very different medium.
Speaker 6 (15:11):
Than the book.
Speaker 14 (15:12):
The book will always be probably the thing I love
the most because I spent a few years with the
Patriots team writing that book while Tom was in his
final two seasons in New England. By the time we
made the documentary, Tom was gone and things were different.
But it was just an opportunity to do something on
television that you can't do on the page.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
One of the things that we talked about a lot
when we were watching it was that it seemed like
it was a little harsh on Belichick. Would you agree
with that?
Speaker 6 (15:45):
Not really?
Speaker 14 (15:45):
I mean I think I actually thought we were pretty
soft on Bill, you know. I think what's jarring for
people though, and the reason I understand why some people
think that, and that's a feeling that's actually pretty limited
to New England and particularly like hardcore Pats fans, but
is that you're seeing Bill on television in an environment
(16:08):
that you never see him in before. Bill doesn't really
do interviews. He does press conferences and he kind of
has a stick that he does in a press conference.
In this situation, he was in a very foreign environment.
He's sitting in an interview chair being asked questions that
he's really never had to deal with before, and so
he looks very stiff, he looks uncomfortable, and the fact
(16:31):
is he was stiff and uncomfortable in that environment. But
I think if you look at the series in its totality,
what you do see is you see who Bill is.
He was a very tough, taciturned successful football coach who
had a huge part in why the Patriots were so
dominant for twenty years. And then you contrast that with Tom,
(16:52):
who's kind of the other half of that equation, and
their personalities are very different, but the way they came together,
it's pretty remarkable what they achieved. But I mean, look,
you're seeing Bill as Bill in the series.
Speaker 7 (17:07):
So did you get calls or email or text from
Bill or from Robert or from Tom the first time
they saw the docuseries?
Speaker 6 (17:16):
No, no, no, I mean I would never.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
I mean.
Speaker 14 (17:22):
I definitely heard a lot. Well, you know, look, you
get to know people as I was in this thing
for five or six years, right, I mean I worked
on these two things back to back. I went from
the book to the series, so like five or six
years of my life was invested in telling the dynasty
story in two different mediums, and you get to know
people pretty well and the organization well. And I feel
(17:45):
like I know that organization really well and the people
who are in it, and have a tremendous amount of
respect for everything that was done there, starting with the
crafts and how they built it and sustained it over
that twenty years. It's a remarkable run. By the way,
no team is going to catch them. The Chiefs, in
my opinion, at least, had very little chance of ever
(18:07):
replicating what the Patriots did.
Speaker 7 (18:09):
Now, the Aaron Hernandez chapter must have been a difficult
for you to navigate.
Speaker 14 (18:17):
I mean, as a storyteller, it really wasn't that hard.
Look a ton has been written and said about that case.
And the nice thing is I wasn't writing a book
about Aaron Hernandez, nor would I want to. It's a
pretty depressing subject. However, if you're going to write a
definitive history of the Patriots dynasty over a twenty year period,
you can't just kind of skip over that like it
(18:39):
didn't happen. It's a part of the dynasty that actually
happens right in the middle of the two Super Bowl runs,
the first run in the early two thousands and then
the back end run in the.
Speaker 6 (18:50):
Late twenty teens.
Speaker 14 (18:52):
Hernandez sits right in the middle of that, and that's
kind of a little bit of a dark spot. And
so I mean, I covered it in the book over
like a couple of chapters. In the series, we dealt
with that whole thing within one episode.
Speaker 7 (19:08):
I can't even imagine the relationship between you and the
videographers and the editors taking your story, putting it to film,
putting it to pictures. It just seems like such a
complicated process.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
It is.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
That's why it took over five years.
Speaker 10 (19:27):
Lost in It's Saint McCrae and you're waking up with
Billy and Lisa in the morning on Kiss Wanta Ahi, Lisa.
Speaker 6 (19:33):
Okay, we want to talk about office etiquette. And you
went down to the DMS right justin you got a DM.
Speaker 10 (19:38):
Well.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
I was scrolling through the Billy and Lisa Topic Time
Suggestions list aka my DMS, and this one came from
one of our listeners. They said they love Topic Time.
They listen every single day and they thought a fun topic.
I think this is their workplace. They think a fun
topic for topic time would be office etiquette, you know,
sharing space in the refrigerator, weird things that people do,
(20:01):
like taking up too much space, taking other people's food,
and just not being courteous. Yes, and that's a big issue.
And then yesterday, you know, we have this silly preset
you know, friendly feud going on with jamming down the
hall with a new feature on the iHeart app, the
preset feature, and they accused Billy and I of being grotesque.
Well me, They accused me of blowing up the men's
bathroom and a Billy of shaving in the morning and
(20:24):
leaving his you know, hair all over.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
The sink, which is and you guys denied it both, Well,
I'll deny it. Yeah, Okay, so it's made up.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
It's made up.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Well, Justin's is Billy does shave hair.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
I haven't seen it firsthand.
Speaker 7 (20:38):
What if I were to shave, I would rinse out
the bowl, okay, because that would be office etiquette. Yes,
Do I look like a guy that leaves sprinklings of
his hair?
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (20:48):
Actually I know you very intimately. Lisa and I share
space with you, not in a weird way. Lisa and
I share this space with you. Every day, Right, you're
sandwiching between her and I. You leave trash, coffee cup
food dom that.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Was in the past. No, I was just getting back
at people that were leaving.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
We were we clean out after Yeah, everybody.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
The coffee cup thing is a real problem with Bill.
He drinks half a cup of coffee and he that
leaves it in your studio, the main studio or mine
every day.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
I throw it away.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Okay, So I have a big reveal here, so talking
about food and the refrigerator and like milk and stuff
like that. I did one time because there were no
coffee little creamers and they had like that horrible French
vanilla can't stand. I used someone's milk. I don't know
who it was.
Speaker 6 (21:33):
Reator this is a confession.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
I only did it once, but I was desperate and
I just used literally like a drop.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
Oh you didn't. You didn't leave it empty.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Now, I just used a drop so that this person,
whoever is in the office would not notice. But this
is a con.
Speaker 7 (21:54):
First of all, I'm afraid to open that refrigerator for
fear of what's in it.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
But I also did once. This was probably a violation.
Speaker 7 (22:03):
I was out of peanut butter, and I knew someone
had a jar in a cabinet, and so I toasted
my thing and then went up and used their peanut butter.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
Okay, all right, can I talk about a major violation.
I want to go there right now.
Speaker 7 (22:20):
Some bottom feeder this past week threw their gum on
the floor and stomped it into the carpet right at
the entrance of this studio.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
I would love to know who we know this carpet.
So I didn't know what to do. I was so
disgusted by it. And then Lisa was on her hands
and knees scraping up the gum.
Speaker 6 (22:40):
I came in.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
I used to fork and a knife and then we
used some.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
Like hands rubbing, and.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I got I broke it up and we got it off.
Speaker 7 (22:49):
But imagine walking into the studio I heart worldwide right
and just opening the door and spitting the gum out
on the floor and walking away.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
What on a creature?
Speaker 13 (23:01):
Like?
Speaker 6 (23:02):
Where does that person.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Assume it was an accident? The only person that could
have been it's a small staff.
Speaker 6 (23:07):
There's no incident with gum.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Mikey Gianna McCabe.
Speaker 10 (23:11):
Just there or honestly, Billy cost stuff because like I
said it could be an.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
I chew gum. I don't think I did it, but
what I chew gum every day? I chew gum.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
I don't chew gum here.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Why don't you gum on the radio?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I think the other big office etique thing is taking
stuff off of people's desks.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Yeap, oh billion, I do that.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
I've done that before.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I've never done that with pleasure.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
No, we did it during COVID and no one was
coming in. We we literally hijacked all the salespeople's desks.
We took all their pens, we took their white out,
we took every We didn't.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Know if we were if anyone was ever coming back.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
Yeah, I used somebody has a box of fresh tissues
on the desk.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
I always are communal tissues. Yeah, that's like office tissues.
Speaker 10 (23:52):
I took a mouse one time because I need a
cordless mouse because mine died or something like that. But
it was off a desk that looked like no one was.
We have a lot of jests out there that are
not occupied. Like we have a huge area where it's
cubical cubicle cubicle and.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
It looks like one that no one used.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
So I just took the mouse.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
But hypothetically, what would be the worst violation of office etiquette?
Speaker 4 (24:14):
It's good question. I'd say the food one is the
big one, especially you know if you're heating up food,
things like fish.
Speaker 6 (24:22):
Good morning.
Speaker 9 (24:23):
This is Jimmy from Quinsy and office etiquette. First, I
want to say, as far as microwave, if you splatter,
clean it up, use a cover.
Speaker 6 (24:36):
No fish and tuna is fish. Tuna is fish.
Speaker 7 (24:40):
And if there's food given for everybody, like in severance,
you don't steal it and take it all and hide
it in your desk.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
That's a good one. And also if you have something
in the refrigerator, clean it out so it doesn't start
to smell.
Speaker 6 (24:54):
Yeah, oh, no one does that.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
We get the email once a month from the people
here and they say we're clean out the fridge and
now they're sending pictures. Now have you seen that on
the company email office pictures? They send pictures to shame
the people that leave their food in that.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I love that.
Speaker 7 (25:09):
Always been afraid of the refrigerator here, I'm telling you
I won't open the door. I think if I do,
an animal that's just gonna jump. You have no idea,
what's going on in that refrigerator.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Yeah, it's an interesting office.
Speaker 10 (25:21):
We also have a unique situation where we're like doing
live radio where people are.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Working out there. So I think like one thing for us.
Speaker 10 (25:28):
Which is huge, what no one else would really know
if they weren't in radio is when we're on air,
if somebody tries to come in here or look in here,
it's super distracting.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
It's super rude.
Speaker 10 (25:37):
And that's like my biggest pet peeve that no one
else would really know in another office. But like for us,
that's office etiquette where you're interrupting our live show.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
And they like peek in.
Speaker 6 (25:47):
Or they'll try to get fat the glass.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
I see those person.
Speaker 10 (25:50):
We'll come to talk about something that has nothing to
do with anything at nine InCom like I'm sorry, we're
on air for another hour, Like you can come back later.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
The food thing is the big one for me. Yeah,
the food thing is the big one. Like you know, like, hey,
sales guy, I don't want him next to me.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
He smells like tune.
Speaker 4 (26:08):
Of fish kiss.
Speaker 7 (26:11):
All right, it is a topic time we kicked it
off earlier. Office etiquette, what's bugging you about the office
place and who's doing it and why we said some
of ours. Let's go to Jenny right away. So Jenny's
on the phoneses good morning, Jenny. Where you're calling from?
Speaker 8 (26:28):
Hi, Billy, I'll call him from my car in Boston. Okay, off,
my grandson.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
I give us some office etiquette violations.
Speaker 8 (26:37):
So a big one for us is when we open
our bathroom doors and there's our employees that don't flush
the toilet. Yes, so they walk away from that and
we have to go in and see that. That's a
big one job. And then another one is like I
don't like when I go in the morning and no
one says good morning to each other, Like we're just
(27:00):
walk by each other and we don't see good morning.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
Back to the pea, back to the peeing situation. There's
somebody that works overnight here almost every morning they pee
and the toilet and never flush it.
Speaker 8 (27:12):
Because when I go in with something, he would be okay, Yeah,
the piece probably someone okay, But when is the other
thing that makes it?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
You know, Yeah, it's disgusting. There's someone in that woman
that does that here.
Speaker 6 (27:26):
It doesn't flush number two.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
It's so gross. Anyway, Jenny, by the way, good morning, sunshine.
Speaker 6 (27:33):
How's that? There's your good morning? Okay?
Speaker 7 (27:36):
Jenny from the Billy and leaves the morning show. Karen's
on the phone next from Danvers. Hey, Karen, what have
you got Hi?
Speaker 8 (27:44):
Good morning? So flipping your nail I've heard it.
Speaker 11 (27:49):
It's disgusting, and people do it.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
I totally agree. Not in the office, and.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
I think they don't think you hear it.
Speaker 10 (27:58):
But it's a.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Pretty it is.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
I did it once.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
What's wrong with you?
Speaker 12 (28:05):
For what?
Speaker 7 (28:06):
Right by the printer? It is like four point thirty
in the morning. I was by the printer. There's a
trash can right there.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
You've hit all the violations.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
All of them.
Speaker 7 (28:13):
No, I've been accused of violations that I wasn't responsible
for by him, not by Bud. I'm admitting. I'm coming clean.
I did my nails out and do my nails. I
cleaned my nails once. This at least this is also
Billy right here.
Speaker 13 (28:25):
My biggest office pet peeve is when you're working next
to someone and they huff and puff and slam the keyboard,
the keys on the keyboard or grab papers because they're
too stressed or aggravated, and then it's just.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Nope, can't do it can't work with that.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
Yeah, that's Bill that morning, huffing and puffing, slamming keyboards,
you kick the printer.
Speaker 10 (28:49):
It's yeah, I can't stand you when you get into
your mood, like you'll like one thing will set you off.
That's like not even that big of a deal, but
like big things you don't mention, and then it's like
a little thing and then you get so annoyed that
you like throw headphones, you throw you kick things, You
like say, oh I hate this spice, I'm done, and
then in a minute later you're like, oh, when I
love you, you know, well.
Speaker 7 (29:09):
One day I lifted a full sized.
Speaker 6 (29:13):
Printer you remember when do you remember? Yeah, over my
head and smashed it on the floor. Yeapeah, you remember.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Like he'll be writing in his news and he'll get
all messed up. I'm not Yeah, that's him.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I think I should get paid as like morning show psychologists. Yeah,
because over the years I've literally like talked you down
like out of like doing something really crazy.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
Every morning, it's like the end of the world until
six o'clock.
Speaker 10 (29:38):
From like four thirty six, you're like just like this
grumpy person that doesn't want to do anything.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Doesn't like any ideas like hysterical.
Speaker 4 (29:45):
Actually so much so that you know, Billy and Lisa
are on WBZ TV every morning at six fifty five
with Chris and Paula. Yeah, really check and check it out.
It's awesome. But when we were planning it, they were like,
you want to do it around like six am? And
I go, no, that is Billy time. That's unpredictable Billy time.
Speaker 10 (30:03):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're gonna Bill Bill O'Reilly like
moment from him.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
We'll do it live. We'll do it.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
We're doing it live. You'll belling at like Chris and
Paula be really awkward.
Speaker 11 (30:17):
Good morning, guys. Love This topic got two quick ones.
Speaker 13 (30:21):
There's a man who walks by my office every morning
at nine thirty with the newspaper and heads into the bathroom.
Speaker 11 (30:29):
He e meges from the bathroom about fifteen second. Fifteen
minutes later, another guy walks around barefoot.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Oh no, I don't like walk around.
Speaker 6 (30:43):
Yes, I have walked.
Speaker 10 (30:45):
Around bear foot for certain reasons, but I don't do
it like every day. I've done it pretty frequent with
the barefoot No, I'm not freaking with it. It happened
occasionally due to some strengul way. I can't say the
word extend you circumstances.
Speaker 7 (31:01):
There's something else now that we're on it, Okay, since
I've been.
Speaker 6 (31:04):
The target so far, we need there's something else you do.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
Like about ten times a morning you stand right next
to you, right, and about ten times.
Speaker 6 (31:13):
A morning at least you know where I'm going, you.
Speaker 7 (31:15):
Will like lift your arms up and stretch like everything.
Speaker 6 (31:22):
Okay, I'm stretching.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
I need to eat limber to do the board.
Speaker 6 (31:29):
And you're doing it barefoot, so at least you're comfortable.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
She's a barefoot stretcher, you know what I mean. We
also mentioned here that someone's bit gum out on the
carpet right outside the studio. We don't know who it was.
Lisa cleaned it up. Thank you for that, Lisa.
Speaker 12 (31:42):
I am vouching for McCabe that he didn't do it.
There was no gum on his shoe last night at
Lisa's book club. We have this running joke when Billy
used to talk about McCabe's feet being tiny, We compare
and take a picture of the feet every time we
see him.
Speaker 6 (31:59):
So he was good. Leave my mquith alone. Okay. Oh,
wasn't one of my suspects on the gum?
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Do you have a main suspect?
Speaker 7 (32:09):
A couple of people I'm thinking about, but you're one
of them, by the way. Let's go to Haley in Summerville.
Good morning, Hayley.
Speaker 6 (32:16):
What have you got Hi?
Speaker 5 (32:17):
Guys? I cannot stand till. I work in special education
at Franciscan Children's so we work with really behavioral students
and I can't stand it when I need like a
minute on my break and I'm sitting in the lumps
room and I get bombarded by five people who just
kind of invite themselves to my table.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
So you want to be alone? You want a loan time?
Speaker 5 (32:37):
I want to be alone. I love I'm such a
personable person. I love people. But everybody, if you're in
this field, you know you need that thirty minutes of
just quiet.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
So I can't respect that. Yeah, ye, just back off right,
leave her alone?
Speaker 6 (32:50):
My Yeah, good morning. Jennifer's calling from Waymouth. Boy. We're
all over the road here, go ahead, Jennifer.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Okay.
Speaker 15 (32:57):
When showing uses the bathroom and then they spray so
much spray you can smell it.
Speaker 11 (33:01):
Throughout the entire office, and you feel like you ate
the cannon.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
It's like, how much spray.
Speaker 6 (33:08):
Do you need? Yeah, we don't have spray in our restrooms.
Speaker 4 (33:11):
We do not. We might have an automatic one, but
not not the ones that you can spray. But I
know what she means. When you spray too much, it goes,
It goes in your mouth. You can't get the test out.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
How about someone who wears too much cologne or perfume
in the office. Oh god, that's also another problem.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
And then you smell like them for the rest of
the day. You can't get rid of it.
Speaker 7 (33:30):
And since we're on the topic of fragrance, uber drivers
lift drivers, if you're listening, stop with the fragrance. Every
time you get in the car. It takes your breath away.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
It's so strong.
Speaker 4 (33:39):
It's too they have to turn turn the dial down.
Speaker 6 (33:41):
Oh my god, it's like, really, I put it at
the lowest setting.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Go morning, Morning crew. I actually work in a office
and I listen every single day.
Speaker 12 (33:51):
We put Billion Lisa on as soon as we come
in at seven and the radio doesn't shut off till
we leave at five. Workplace etiquette is huge, you guys, listen.
Speaker 10 (34:00):
We love I love everyone that I work with and
they love me, But there are certain people in my
office that do not have workplace etiquette, and they've been
there for.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Twenty five plus years.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
Sometimes it's the oldest dog that can't learn the new tricks.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
Very true.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
I wonder what the violations were.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
I don't know, Yeah, I don't know. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (34:20):
We just moved to a beautiful new space in Boston
and all the offices are glass and I walk by
this one office and this person is soaking their disgusting
foot in a round tup aware container.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
Oh my god, way to mess up the new building.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
What is that about? That's is someone going to use
that tup aware after?
Speaker 7 (34:50):
Uh? Let's hey, let's go to Bridgewater and Brandon, Brandon
and Bridgewater.
Speaker 6 (34:54):
Hello, what have you got?
Speaker 13 (34:56):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (34:56):
Good morning? How are you now?
Speaker 16 (34:59):
I was just thinking it means they is.
Speaker 5 (35:00):
It's probably better if people.
Speaker 16 (35:01):
Don't talk about politics in the office, you know, That's true.
Have a hot topic these days, and you don't want
to be going to work every day with somebody that
suddenly you look at it, you know, and they're just like,
you know, pushing the wrong buttons or whatever.
Speaker 10 (35:17):
I agree with him, Yeah, this is not Yeah, we
don't do politics around here.
Speaker 4 (35:21):
You just can't because you can't, you know, no matter
what side you're on. Then people yell.
Speaker 10 (35:26):
It's it's funny you kind of know though, like you
to know who stands where.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
You don't have to talk about it though.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
Yeah, well you just.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
Respect the other person. Yeah, yeah, I mean Brandon. If
anyone did that, I'm sorry.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
Oh I'm sorry.
Speaker 7 (35:41):
I'm genuinely sorry.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
Noo.
Speaker 7 (35:45):
Amanda is in Marlborough. Amanda, give us a good one.
Speaker 15 (35:50):
Hi.
Speaker 11 (35:50):
So, I work in healthcare and one of my biggest hyppies,
you know, being in her for all for working health
care is people that go out and smoke or face
during the day. Yeah, because everybody's trying to stay on
schedule and take care of everybody around them, and you know,
you're looking for help and they're out on their fifteenth
smoke breakup the day and it just drives me crazy.
(36:12):
And then plus the smell when they come back in.
Speaker 6 (36:14):
Oh, you're so right, and they don't know you're still smelling.
Speaker 11 (36:17):
It's sure, but you see no, no, and they always
try to cover it up too, which makes it just
that much worse.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:24):
You see them outside the buildings all the time, just
kind of standing there.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
And think about it.
Speaker 10 (36:28):
They get more time break than we do if you
don't smoke, because you smoke breaks. And how can you
mean healthcare and smoke and date?
Speaker 4 (36:34):
That just seems kind of Some hospitals don't hire you
if you're a smoker. They test you, they do some
kind of test. I've heard of that.
Speaker 7 (36:41):
And they still have those weird pedestals outside the buildings.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
Some buildings happen, right, Yeah. I used to the courthouse
down the street here. They had a sand ash.
Speaker 6 (36:51):
Oh yeah, so.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
You don't stub them out, you just stick it in
the sand.
Speaker 7 (36:54):
And then there were like thirty cigarette buds popping out
of the sand.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
So you know, obviously I had some trouble in my
younger years when I, you know, had nothing to go
there when the lawyers would come out and then they'd
have to run back into that and I'd I'd sneak
up and take all the half cigarettes.
Speaker 6 (37:10):
You could create a full pack.
Speaker 4 (37:11):
And I'd have cigarettes.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
For the pack. That is quite the hack.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
What would you keep the butts in?
Speaker 4 (37:18):
I'd have an empty cigarette pack, so I'd have a
pack full of like half smoking but really grossy, let's.
Speaker 7 (37:23):
Cross the border to Nashua in New Hampshire, genality have one.
Speaker 15 (37:28):
Yeah, so I would have to say mine is coffee creamers.
I worked at a dental office a few years ago
and the doctor was a new grad and she used
to drink everybody's creamer in the office and then claim
that she would never do it because she's a doctor
and has money. I could smell my oat milk creamer
in her cup every day.
Speaker 6 (37:48):
Oh, I thought she was just drinking the creamer.
Speaker 15 (37:53):
Pretty weird, cremer.
Speaker 10 (37:55):
That's such a billy move, though. That's such a billy
move to say I wouldn't take it.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
I have money.
Speaker 6 (38:01):
I wouldn't say that. You would say that. You would
say money.
Speaker 10 (38:06):
If I ever get caught stealing, I'll say I could
buy the whole store, take my card.
Speaker 6 (38:10):
Why would I kill once?
Speaker 2 (38:16):
And work etiquette? How late is it too late to
call one of your employees?
Speaker 6 (38:22):
Because my boss.
Speaker 13 (38:23):
Loves to call me in the middle of dinner, seven
thirty at night, eight o'clock at night, seven am, never end.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
When is when you say stuck?
Speaker 6 (38:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (38:35):
You gotta say boundaries do yeah? Yeah, especially if you
have a family, kids, family time.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Well, Bill calls me at all hours of the day,
So I don't mind though. I just pick up the phone.
Speaker 6 (38:46):
Time you don't. Most of the time you don't know.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Well, I keep my phone on silent. I like to
be in control of the phone. That's how it is. Plus,
I don't want to upset you because of your little freakouts.
You get upset. We talked about that earlier. Yeah, you
know you don't push bill between what are the hours
when oh four and six, four thirty and six is
prime billion times tomorrow and that is it?
Speaker 7 (39:10):
Yeah, five four three, that's tomorrow and that is it
for us today.
Speaker 6 (39:16):
And we will leave you with a I can't do it.
We'll do it live, we'll do it, lit, do it lot,
I can alrighte it and we'll do it lot,
