Your old self.

Fun.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah, it's cool and no better. The shoulders just as bad.

at least a few days. There's some big needles though.
Oh god, the needle has two zip codes. I mean
he brings it out or she brings it out, and
you look at your you're using that.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Yeah, and he did too. He did one on the
front and one on the back.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Yeah. It's gonna work. You'll see it's gonna work.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
It does.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
I've heard it's just gonna settle the inflammation so I
can do the PT and the PT will work. Yeah,
Bill knows you have bad shoulders.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
I've gotten the shots in both shoulders, and the first
one never worked. You always have to get the same.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Thanks for the positive reinforcement. I appreciate it. What else
you got.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
It's hot, it's very hot. Thanks Bill. Let's get back
to the World Cup for a second, because we want
to open this discussion on the show this morning at
about seven thirty. The World Cup, right, it's the biggest
ever World Cup, forty eight teams, more than one hundred matches,
millions of people pouring in all over the world for
these matches. Foxborough is going to be insane. Boston is

(04:40):
going to be insane. I want to know who's going.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Well, seventy five percent of the tickets were sold of
outside of New England. That like people coming in. Seventy
five percent, that's a big percentage.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Okay. I want people to send us talkbacks. I want
people to call us later this morning when we open
up the discussion. Are you going, do you have tickets?
Do you care?

Speaker 1 (04:59):
And how to did you get tickets? Did you get
them through the lottery? Because we didn't. We all went
into the lottery.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
I don't know anybody nothing, do you.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
I don't know anyone who's going.

Speaker 6 (05:07):
No.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
But it's well known that soccer, professional soccer is not
that big around here. Now. I know there are people
that love it. I get that, but it's not nearly
as big here as it is around the world.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
So who's going I don't know, let us know in
the talkbacks, But what's bigger? Let me ask you this,
what's bigger the World Cup coming tomorrow or a tailor
Swift in Travis Kelsey's wedding.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Just wondering.

Speaker 7 (05:30):
I kind of tak get like the craziest dreams.

Speaker 8 (05:32):
And last night I had a dream that I got
kidnapped and it was like really scary, horrendous. Turns out
I was kidnapped to go to Taylor Swift's wedding and
Travis Kelsey's wedding at Madison Square Garden, and I have
to say it was just as hacky as we could imagine.

Speaker 9 (05:51):
Because that was really happening.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
From the Planet Fitness Kids one o eight Studios, We're
back with A Villy and Lisa in the morning.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Big guys, it's welcome back Wednesday. It's June tenth. Yeah,
it's going to be hot. It's going to be hot today,
It's going to be hot for the next two or
three days, and we will take it right late.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yes, we love it. Don't complain.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Bring on the heat. So last night, the Hollywood premiere
of the Toy Story five movie Lot of celebrity guests,
a lot of surprises, and none bigger than Taylor Swift
showing up on the Red Carpets.

Speaker 10 (06:24):
It means so much to me to actually be a
part of this film in some small way, just because
it's such a just such an incredible world of imagination
and playfulness and mischief and humor and comedy and tragedy.
It's raised so many kids just like me, Like I
watched Toy Story when I was five, and I've watched

(06:45):
every single one of the films so many times. So
I really think that like to be able to be
welcomed into something that has welcomed me unknowingly its entire existence,
just as a fan, feels like very point for me
and for my family.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
And Taylor don't forget, Yeah, she does have a song
in the movie.

Speaker 10 (07:06):
I think when people hear the song I Knew It,
I Knew You at the end of Toy Story five,
I think that it would be really awesome if they
thought of somebody that they had amazing memories with that
they haven't seen in a long time, or someone that
they miss, knowing that that person could come back into
their life, or just the feeling that like sometimes people's
paths diverge, and that doesn't mean that that's the last

(07:29):
time that you get to feel those memories or know
that person. And sometimes when you look back on your
childhood those memories, that's special in itself.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
That's a pretty powerful thing to say thinking about that
when I heard that cut. You know, think about you know,
people from your childhood or your past that you don't
see for a long time and then they come back
in your lives and it's like you never missed a beat.
So yeah, that's what I was thinking about.

Speaker 6 (07:52):
You know.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
And nobody can keep a secret better.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Than Taylor's from now and the fact that Picksar actually
kept the bigger secret where they made the preview of
the movie with a dummy track in it so that
no one would know, like they were all in on it,
except the actors didn't even know.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Yeah, Tom Hanks and Tim Allen didn't have no idea
there was a song from Taylor. This knowledge was kept
from us. We did not learn of like CIA stuff. Yeah,
closed doors. You're not to repeat this.

Speaker 11 (08:21):
Twenty twenty four hours ago we were pulled in and
told about the dropping of it, and the thing we
had no knowledge, No one said, hey, we might get
Taylor's nothing, so this is this is this is big stuff.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
It did did it?

Speaker 2 (08:35):
This just under it.

Speaker 12 (08:36):
Taylor's was lined on emotional level to me with Randy
Newman's you Got a Friend in Me?

Speaker 2 (08:41):
So she drilled it the song.

Speaker 12 (08:45):
It took me a minute and I went and because
I'm used to you Got a Friend in me, I'm
used to that level, and I go, yeah, gosh, darn it.

Speaker 13 (08:53):
It was like hearing Judy Garland say Somewhere over the Rainbow,
yeah shot.

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
They were brought into us special soundproof room the day
the song came out and they played it for them.
Imagine right, yeah, nobody can keep a secret.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
Tom Hanks was probably like, I'm Tom Hanks, right, how
could you keep this from me? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (09:13):
So she shows up at the Hollywood premiere. She talks
about the movie and being involved in it. She talks
about the song, and then she jumps on stage, sits
down at the piano and does the song.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
And then she did sing with Randy Newman You've got
a Friend now.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
Randy Newman another one of the great songwriters. Yes in
the world, right, he's the guy that did the theme
song for Toy story and they did it together last
night being in the theater, right. I mean, if Tom

(10:02):
asked Tim Allen knew nothing about the Taylor Swift involvement,
they certainly didn't know, and they didn't know Taylor was
going to be there, let alone do all of this
there the last night.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
Yeah, very cool.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
Yeah, she took pictures of all the kids that were
there Taylor.

Speaker 2 (10:15):
It was good.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
A thing.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
It reminds me of you know, when she shoots her
music videos, she lip syncs them. She doesn't play the
song when she's shooting the music video so it doesn't leak.
She's the queen of secrets.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Yeah, especially her wedding.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oh that's the biggest one. And then there's that.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
There's a big updates to that too.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Yeah, we had a lot to talk about in terms
of the wedding at Madison Square Garden. Is there going
to be a wedding at Madison Square Garden? That's Bill
coming up on that seven to ten this morning, which
is just minutes away.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Basically, Okay, I don't wan to talk about.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
Part of me still doesn't think there's any way it's
going to happen at Madison Square Garden.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
But every morning there's another update. This one seems a
bit more credible. I got to be honest, so I
have I have thoughts.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah, wow, we're gonna break it down seven to ten
this morning. Okay, what did I do?

Speaker 14 (11:07):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (11:07):
You still want to get that in? Is that what
you're stalling for?

Speaker 3 (11:10):
No, no, no, I didn't know if you wanted to
hear from Tom twelve.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
I was going to go into it, but then you
jumped in and started asking other questions. I was ready
to go with it.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Okay, we're all good. It's all good.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Tom Hanks happy to be back as Woody. Toy Story five,
Let's go. They've always been great.

Speaker 13 (11:28):
There has never been a Toy story movie that just
came out because it was time to have another toy
story movie. The people at Pigsar knock themselves out to
make sure that there is a theme theme that is
emotionally explored. And it always happens the apomos cry in
everyone for a reason because it reminds you of your
own role.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
Okay, you know, I've only seen one toy Toy Story.
The first one me too. I saw it in the
theater when I was a little kid. I remember going.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
I brought my boys to it.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
Yep, never seen any the other ones. What's a good opper?
Watching all my children?

Speaker 2 (12:01):
You're gonna binge? I might might as well, right, and
then they'll know the whole story.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
They're just like you just earned tears. Yeah, in every
single one.

Speaker 6 (12:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
But in a way, Bill kind of has ruined the
Toy Story franchise for me, maybe for others too.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
What did I do well?

Speaker 3 (12:18):
Because remember Lil nas X came out blew up in
twenty nineteen, and you said he looked like Woody from
Toy Story. So now every time I think of Woody
or see Woody, I think a little nas X.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
He really did come out like. I think he used
Woody as a sample. Yeah, I think so too.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
You know you don't understand when the trailer dropped for
Toy Story five. Yeah, I'm looking at it and I'm like,
little na Yeah, thanks to Bill.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
Didn't go well? Didn't go well? No, it didn't really
go well, really, Liza.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Now the entertainment updates with the Billy Pdstead on Kids.

Stanley Cup Hockey Hurricanes beat the Golden Knights. I got
to tell you something. I think the Canes are getting
the Billy and Lisa show.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Bump Canes all the way.

Speaker 4 (13:45):
Let's go so.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
That before the series even began, Canes all the way.
They beat the Golden Knights last night, five tough. Let's
get the call.

Speaker 15 (13:52):
The final seconds tick off for Carolina. Hurricanes still lost
back to back game since mid January. They're twenty five
and seven this year.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
That the loss including the regular season. Canees all the way.
I have no idea.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Hey, it's a good series.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
It's a very interesting series. It's not two games apiece
Game five tomorrow night. NBA Finals tonight at the Spurs
and the Knicks. Back in Madison Square Garden, the Knicks
are up to games one in the series. Fights and
chaos outside Madison Square Garden when the Knicks lost the
other night, Knicks fans tracking down anyone wearing a Spurs

(14:34):
jersey for the beatdown. Well Spurs star Wemby and Knicks
star Carl Anthony Town criticizing all the violence.

Speaker 6 (14:42):
Cay, you forget, it's a game. We're just paying game
out there, and I'm all for you know, passion, but
to the respect of to the respect of each other,
it's unacceptable.

Speaker 16 (14:53):
I mean, the game, the game is built off respect
and passion. You know, we want everyone to respect each other.
We want everyone to enjoy basketball at its purest state.
I mean, it's the NBA Finals. There's no better place
to watch basketball. So you know, lead the physicality to
everyone on the court.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Yeah, well said talk about Irony. Okay, You've got the
best athletes in the world right competing for the championship,
and it's the fans that are fighting each other.

Speaker 3 (15:20):
Yeah, they were hunting Spurs fans in New York. We
watched some of the videos. Oh my god, horrif And
then you have the police just standing watching.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
Yeah, that's the part that really upset me, standing there,
like dozens of cops in uniform standing there. I don't
when people beat each other, what's the reason there? I
don't know. I don't know. There was so many of
them a crazy place. Uh. It's World Cup week. The
first matches this week, the first match in Foxboro Saturday night,
nine o'clock. Haiti, Scotland the heavy favorites, defending champion Argentina,

(15:56):
don't forget them. Also Spain and France our favorite. It's
in the Cup. Millions of people pouring in from all
over the world. Begs the question, who's going.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
Seventy five percent from outside of New England. I have
to say that Norway is the game on Tuesday here
and they haven't been in a World Cup situation in
twenty eight years. I expect to see a lot of
people from Norway here.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
We want to read the crowd, all right, let's read
the crowd on the Billy and Lisa Morning Show. Do
you have tickets? Are you going to any of the
matches out at Foxboro? Are you even watching the matches?
That's all we talk about. Right, it's massive in Boston
surrounding down.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
If you are going, how did you get tickets?

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Right?

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Well, how much did you pay? Well, that was a lottery,
you'd pay retail, right.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
They had the lotteries.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
Yeah, and we all entered it paid retail, which I'm
sure wasn't cheap. Yeah, So send you talkbacks and now
seven thirty we'll talk about this. I also have some
fun facts things you did not know about the World Cup.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
That all right. Meantime, last night the Hollywood premiere of
the Toy Story five movie. We all knew Taylor Swift
had a song in the movie. Nobody even people at
the premiere knew she was going to show up last
night and cheer. Here she was on the red carpet.

Speaker 10 (17:10):
It means so much to me to actually be a
part of this film in some small way, just because
it's such a just such an incredible world of imagination
and playfulness and mischief and humor and comedy and tragedy.
It's raised so many kids just like me, Like I
watched Toy Story when I was five, and I've watched

(17:31):
every single one of the films so many times. So
I really think that like to be able to be
welcomed into something that has welcomed me unknowingly its entire existence,
just as a fan feels like very poignant for me
and for my family.

Speaker 2 (17:48):
See, there's that thing. Nobody can put something into words
better than Taylor Swift.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Yes, she's a word.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
It is now just incredible to me.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
Right, the best songwriter, Yeah, she certainly is.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
And by the way, she also sat down at the
piano and performed the song last night. I knew it.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
I love the sentiment behind this song so much about
people coming in and out of your life, Yes, and
the importance of that.

Speaker 3 (18:23):
It's also the connection that you build with people. It's
life long, you know. I'm sure there's people in your life,
Bill and Lisa that you may have not seen in
ten plus years, but if you saw them today, you'd
reconnect like it was nothing.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
Yeah, you pick up right where you left off.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
It's a funny thing, you say, because everybody's got friends, right,
They've got old friends, childhood friends, they've got best friends, everything.
But then you have the friends that, like you say,
you cannot talk for several years, but when you do,
what it's like you're talking for the first time. Nobody's
getting mad that you haven't called them or they haven't
called you. Yeah, that's what I'm talking.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
It's like you never skipped a beat, totally.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Yeah. By the fact, I've got a childhood friend, John Campbell,
I'll mention him right now, And that's exactly the friendship
we have. We could not see each other for months,
talk with each other for months, and shout outs to John.
He's having the battle of his life right now in
the hospital.

Speaker 17 (19:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
Election, Yeah, how you doing buddy anyway. Toy Story five
opens June nineteenth. Latest on the Travis and Taylor wedding
now TMZ is reporting this morning that Travis and Taylor
are paying full price to rent out Madison Square Garden
three days and a million dollars a day, with millions

(19:39):
and other related expenses. Regarding Madison Square Garden, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
Okay, they can do whatever they want. Okay, she's like
she's a billionaire. Whatever, that's what they want to do.
Great for them, But I feel like this is still
a decoy. I feel like this is too close to
her profes career. She lives her life in stadiums and arenas.
The last thing I think you would want to do
is a woman because let's face it, I know, and

(20:10):
I'm speaking for a lot of women out there. You
dream of your wedding since you're a little girl. It's
just something you always think about, right. So I just
think like being in an arena, which she always is
in for work, doesn't make sense for something that's so
personal and set like outside of work, right.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
Right, right.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
I think the other side of the argument is that
she can be more secretive there, you know, less likely
that pictures will leak and videos will leak. There's no windows.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
See what's going on outside Madison Square Garden for the NBA.
Do you think this is a great environment for a wedding.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
I also just think, look what they did for the
Toy Story movie. We were just talking about it. They
kept it a secret, Yeah, even from the stars like
Tom Hanks. So I feel like if she was going
to do a wedding anywhere in the world, they could
keep it a secret.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
By the way, betting sites are taking bets on everything
from the location, to the vows, to the guest list,
basically anything and everything surrounding the wedding.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
You can bet there is a story that a lot
of her friends that inner circle. They're saying, are saying
that this is a masterful decoy, like that Tree Pain.
Her PR person isn't on it. This is just like
this is a decoy.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Oh sorry, yes, yes, Bill. Her PRS person's name is
Tree Paid.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
Yeah, a long time, long time. I think it's her
only client, free Pain.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
That's all you need is one client.

Speaker 18 (21:32):
Just like Billy, I don't think that this Madison Square
Garden wedding is real at all. I actually think someone
in their camp started this to find out who the
leak in their lives is, to find out who is
selling this information.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
What do you think about that? Yeah? I that makes
a lot of sense right there.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah, who's the leaker?

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Tree Pain? She's the la Tree Pain is not the leak.
Is it a woman?

Speaker 1 (21:57):
Yeah, it's a way Yep, it's not t.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
Pain, Bill, it's tree Pain. I love that. Whoever it is,
her name is tree Pain.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
Oh, Billy's gonna talk about this. Oh my gosh, my
favorite new person shows over.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Just go home. Don't forget. We've got the Olivia Rodrigo
album listening party right here at Kiss when away tomorrow.
You can still win your way in when you hear
and Olivia Rodrigo's song on Kiss You just send us
a talkback. You know who's going to be at the
listening party? Yeah, man, send us a talkback.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
Like this, Hi, guys.

Speaker 19 (22:32):
I'm not saying I'd be jealousy jealousy of everyone who
gets to go to the party without me, but I
would definitely be singing Olivia's songs Dramatthew mckitchen that a
whole night, Please chick me.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Olivia was interviewed yesterday about the album, which by the way,
comes out Friday. It's called you Seem Pretty Sad for
a Girl So in Love? What's up with that? Olivia?

Speaker 20 (22:53):
It is something that Dan actually, my producer, said to me.
We were having a conversation in the studio and he
said that, and.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
I was like, that's perfect.

Speaker 20 (22:59):
That's exactly what the album should be called. And I
think lots of the love songs on the album are
like injected with a lot of kind of melancholy vibes
or fear or anxiety.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
I think that that's a big part.

Speaker 20 (23:12):
Of being in a relationship, that that like nuance of
it that's often talked about, and so it was just
a perfect way to describe what I was going for.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Well, she's on the rioter for a life hunt. Yes,
I'm mean talk about exploding in the last year or so.
And Matt Damon is on a campaign right now to
bring clean water to people who need it all over
the world. And as part of the campaign, he plays
a rapper named Nomad.

Speaker 21 (23:38):
Two billion people don't have access to clean water. It's
one in four human beings. And so we have this
Get Blue initiative. Everybody, by just going about their everyday life,
if they're interacting with a Get Blue product, they're making
a donation to water Dot or so if you get
a blue macha or a blue sweatshirt, some of those
proceeds are going to go to the work that we're doing, right,
And so I figured if I wrap, you know, as

(23:58):
the Nomad, that that might be like a way to
kind of connect to the culture.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
His nomages Damon spell backwards. Uh yeah. Meanwhile, companies like Starbucks,
The Gap, Amazon have already joined the campaign. He does
good stuff, Matt Damon clean.

Speaker 6 (24:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
Not the best rapper though.

Speaker 21 (24:18):
Can we do the ad libs now or do we
do him after? Here we go buy yourself a bevy,
a shirt, a song, five bucks can change the world.

Speaker 2 (24:26):

It's World Cup week, Okay. The first match out at
Foxport is this Saturday. The first matches of the World
Cup happened earlier this week. Well tomorrow, I think it
all starts. But millions of people are traveling from all
over the world, a lot of them coming here to Boston,
and uh, Fox and Gillette Stadium has been renamed Boston Stadium.

(25:57):
FanFest is going on at City Hall Plaza just finalized.
Bars can stay open later and everything, and and I
kind of get it, but at the same time, I don't.
And because I don't, nor have I ever met anyone who's.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Going, that's the same with me. And we all tried
to go. We entered the lottery like good peeps, and
none of us got tickets.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
No, they did a Capital one pre sale for them.
So I got the alert and I signed up and nothing.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
No.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
I get the festive atmosphere. I get that it's going
to be crazy here, and that's great for the bars
and for the restaurants and the business owners and everything.
But who is going to the game, And.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
How did you get your tickets. How are you getting there?
Did you get the eighty dollars bus pass? Are you
taking the tea? Are you driving? Are you already here
from a different country? If you're listening to us right, yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
And by the way, welcome if you were in a.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Kilt exactly exactly, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
I love kilts.

Speaker 3 (26:53):
iHeartRadio is the partner, the official partner of the World Cup.

Speaker 2 (26:56):
We have to mention that because you can listen to
all matches on iHeartRadio. Right it's a free app, bzy.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
So if you're listening to us right now on the
iHeart app, you can also listen to the World Cup matches.
There you go as well. I have some fun facts
here for the World Cup.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
Do you get it?

Speaker 3 (27:09):
Study for tomorrow? Some things you may not know? How
about Well, I should start with this. Actually, Scotland and
Haiti is the first game here right Saturday night.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
So for Scotland it's the first time they have qualified
for the World Cup since nineteen ninety eight.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
It's a big deal.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
That's a huge deal. That's Haiti or Scotland. That's Scotland.
Oh did you say Haiti.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
Yeah, it's the first World Cup since nineteen seventy four Wow,
even longer.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Wow, Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Why does the game start so late? Why is it
at nine o'clock at night?

Speaker 2 (27:40):
Maybe because people are watching that's all over the world.
I'm guessing. Yeah, that's what I assume.

Speaker 3 (27:44):
Yeah, because I mean seventy four percent of the people
coming to the games here are from another country, so
you know, it's massive. You know, it's rare for more
than one country to host the World Cup. This will
only be the second time the World Cup is staged.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
In more than one kind an entire continent. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
The first one was in two thousand and two Japan
and South Korea they shared hosting duties.

Speaker 5 (28:06):
Ah.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Yeah, Cape verd the second smallest country ever to qualify,
only the population of five hundred and fifty thousand.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
And yet we have a lot of Cape Verdians here
in the ball and there. Maybe that's one of the
antwors we're looking for.

Speaker 17 (28:19):
Yeah, good morning.

Speaker 7 (28:21):
There's a lot of foreigners in this country that love soccer,
so it is a big deal.

Speaker 17 (28:27):
And I rather go to the game than be Ada
Taylor's wedding and ki Verdian GUIDs are playing in this
country in the World Cup for the first time.

Speaker 9 (28:39):
Go Ke Verdi, go, I love that.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Yeah, she's like a true soccer fan.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
Go, Kate Verdie, let's go.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
She'd rather go to a soccer game than a Taylor
Swift wedding.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
Yeah, imagine.

Speaker 3 (28:51):
Well, I know Taylor is ruffling some feathers today.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
The fact that you put Taylor Swift in the work
up in the same conversation is very offensive.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
The only person you should have put in that conversation
your Shakira. Okay, because we need Shakira for every work up.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
All right, I'm sorry she's doing the halftime show. Two
big stories though. I know people, I love Shakira. She
has the World Cup song.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
You know what, it tame.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Everything, you know. I love that. Shakira was literally in
handcuffs right facing prison for tax evasion and she's never
been bigger now and she.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Beat that case. Yes, she got all our money back.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
She did.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
Yeah, we reported in that story. It's all people said.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
Shakira's going just a couple of weeks ago, it was
it was settled.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Yeah, bigger than life right now, she feels like she
was going to jail.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
Yes, remember he jokes about it.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
Oh boy, Brazil are their favorite.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
I think they're always well, I think France and Spain
are heavy favorites. Argentina is the defending champ. They've played
every World Cup in Brazil. Yeah, when I was in
ninety four. I was a little kid when it was
here the last time, and I remember Brazil was the team.
I remember watching the games. We have a big Brazilian
population right here in the Boston area. Oh huge, it's
all coming together.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Well, France is playing June twenty sixth at Boston Stadium Vaway.

Speaker 3 (30:20):
That's the big one, the big game.

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Yeah, big one.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
And it's at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Oh good, Okay, one more here.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
Fun fact, the USA's last opening ceremony was an eventful
one nineteen ninety four. When I just mentioned, uh, it
was overshadowed, first of all by the O. J. Simpson
slow speed chase.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
Remember that it was on the same day. Wow, oh
my god. Yeah, and White Bronco going down the highway.
Oh yeah, we remember that on the TV. OJ was
tucked down behind the drivers, never forget it, and his
body was driving.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
That was the first So I remember the case obviously
have then the trial happened, right yeh, Bill covered it.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
You've talked about it. I was in the courthouse two days, I.

Speaker 3 (31:01):
Know, but I remember as a little boy, my parents
were glued to Court TV every single day, and I
think that was the first really big case that was broadcast.

Speaker 2 (31:09):
You would the giant retail stores, remember they had the
giant TV departments on. People would be crowding the TV
sections just to watch the course.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
Step out of work.

Speaker 3 (31:22):
So you had the chase, which kind of overshadowed the
opening day ceremony. Then the opening ceremony itself was cursed.
If you remember this, Oprah Winfrey got up on stage
to make her speech, you know this one right here,

(31:44):
and she fell off the stage and pretty much broke
her ankle. Now I don't remember this.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
I don't remember that either.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
I can't find the video.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
We have to find the videos, sir, my god, what
if she wiped the Internet of the video?

Speaker 3 (31:59):
She may have It might be online. I searched for
a few minutes. If anybody can find the video.

Speaker 2 (32:03):
If you find the video, I'm going to put it
in my personal archives. So she's welcoming the world to
World Cup and fell off the and got hurt.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Oh yeah, it was Gail King with her. I'm not
sure well, you know who was there too. This is
another part of the curse, Diana Ross. Diana Ross did
this like stunt where she had to score a goal
from three yards away.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
Missed. I guess there is a mountain high enough. Missed.
She missed. Now wait a minute, wasn't there a country?
Uh that when they lost they assassinated the goaltender.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
Uh well, thank you, Bill. Not the goaltender, it was.
It was one of the defenders. Why did you bring this?

Speaker 1 (32:54):
I remember that.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
Talking about World Cup story? Passionate, Yes, yeah, a lot
of passion.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
Believe it was. I don't want to missus b ka.
It was Columbia, I believe, or Ecuador maybe Columbia. Yeah,
they take him soccer very serious.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, very serious, as do we, which is why we're
talking about it. You know, we still want to know
who's going.

Speaker 3 (33:17):
Oh, there are people going.

Speaker 4 (33:18):

Speaker 2 (35:22):
Well, Jeff wanted to get the tickets. People were killing
each other for tickets.

Speaker 14 (35:27):
I don't know. I don't win anything, but for some
reason I got the first draw. I was like, all right,
that's great. When I got the second one, I'm like, oh,
it's just all hype. Everybody's getting this. And I talked
about your friends and nobody got tickets. So I just
got a line going with some of my friends and said, hey,
if you want some tickets, let me know, because the
system was all it was a tough system. Will you

(35:48):
wait and you wait until you have to buy tickets?

Speaker 2 (35:51):
So are you a big soccer fan?

Speaker 14 (35:53):
Jeff my Son is a bigger fan. Soccer is a
big part of my life. Grew up playing, played to
the ranks, played in college. So it's uh, I owe
football and soccer a lot.

in Juette for this Sunday Saturday's game. But I sold
those to a friend coming from Scotland. A friend of
a friend actually is coming from Scotland and watch. So
I sold those tickets. I think I overbought. I think
I bought too many. But we're gonna go. We're gonna
have a blast.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
So have you made much of a profit on the
buying and the selling of World Cup tickets?

Speaker 4 (36:39):
No?

Speaker 14 (36:39):
No, that's no, No, that's not what I'm about.

Speaker 22 (37:31):
Congrats, Jeff, dude, stop bragging. Could have just said, yeah,
I'm going to the game instead of rubbing it in
all our faces. How many tickets you got and some
of us didn't get one?

Speaker 2 (37:43):
Thanks dude. Yeah, he's flying all over the place going
to imagine. Yeah, let's go to Steph and Metford down
the street. Now, Steph, you got tickets for the World Cup.

Speaker 23 (37:55):
I got tickets, and I am complete opposite of Jeff.

Speaker 24 (37:58):
I tried the visa dry.

Speaker 23 (38:00):
Every time I checked email, the first word on it
was unfortunately, visa draw, FIFA draw. Everything was negative. And
then I got an email for last chance tickets. There
was four of us that were on for five hours.

Speaker 24 (38:13):
My cousin did end up getting through, but it was
like noseweed seats in Iran, like they were playing Iran
at Gillette, and it just made me a little nervous.
So then we got last chance tickets again, and this
time I went on five minutes before it opened. I
was on hold for five hours.

Speaker 23 (38:31):
The little clocky thing just kept moving in the last
thirty minutes, and.

Speaker 24 (38:35):
It was at we own a hair salon, and I.

Speaker 23 (38:38):
Wouldn't let anybody cash anybody out because it was on
that computer. We were calling people back to like make appointments.
I finally got through and then my credit card got
denied because I thought it was fraud, so I grabbed
my husband's credit card and then I had to call
him for the code because he was still it was
like it was just.

Speaker 24 (38:55):
Crazy and insane. But we finally and we actually got
Norway in France.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
Oh my god, that's the best one. Yeah, that's the one.
But you know what, stuff, stop bragging. Yeah, definitely, you
own a salon and you want to give it a shout.

We're at war with Iran and Iran is in the
World Cup. Yeah. Yeah, wow.

Speaker 3 (39:24):
Bill likes to bring up the murdered soccer player.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
It's just an interesting that's a part of the story.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
You're right, But we have soccer which brings people together.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
Correct. Wow, we were wondering who's going, and now we're
finding out a lot of people are going. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (39:39):
I got gonna take us through the FIFA lottery. I
got four. I sold to keeping two and oh I
just had to get off the treadmill because I heard
you guys talking now not a breath. And then I
bought parking on stub hub. A little expensive, but I
like to park around the Jellet area and it's worth
it to go see this game.

Speaker 2 (40:01):
Stop bragging. See I like her if she not only
listens to kiss, but she's listening on the app, she's
on the treadmill, she's listening. We love her.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah, thanks for hopping off and leaving us.

Speaker 3 (40:11):
Yeah I know.

Speaker 7 (40:12):
Good morning guys. My daughter's best friend who now lives
in Colorado. She moved it from Rhode Island. She entered
a lottery and got two tickets, so she and a
boyfriend are flying back to New England. They paid seven
hundred dollars for each ticket. Molust, they have the airfare,
but they are going to watch the World Cup in Juleette.
Have a good day.

Speaker 2 (40:31):
Wow, it's so crazy.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
We were just asking ourselves, asking each other, who's going
to this?

Speaker 2 (40:36):
Then?

Speaker 3 (40:36):
Yeah, people are going.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Aren't you really curious now that it's World Cup week?
Aren't you really curious what it's going to be like
moving in and out of Boston? Oh you need to
where you need to be?

Speaker 9 (40:48):
Oh yeah, Not to be a complainer, I think it's
really cool.

Speaker 20 (40:51):
I'm excited for the World Cup, I guess as someone
who has little to no interest in soccer.

Speaker 7 (40:58):
But I'm sitting in traffic and how how is this
going to affect the traffic. It's already so bad, it's
already summer. How is this going to affect the traffic?

Speaker 9 (41:08):
Lisa, help a girl out.

Speaker 1 (41:10):
I was asking our traffic people this morning. I think
you're looking at major delays on four ninety five, ninety
five my corridor. It's going to just be gridlock, absolute gridlock,
because you're going from the Expressway through the brain Tree
Split and then down yeah to Gillette, So it's it's
going to be a nightmare.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
I heard for the first time ever, the tea is
going to be operating twenty four to seven.

Speaker 1 (41:31):
Yes, they are just for the soccer matches. It's not
going to extend.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
Wow, it's a good thing. Bill and I head north.

Speaker 1 (41:36):
I know you guys are so lucky.

Speaker 3 (41:38):
We really are.
