Ghosting good evening, Ladies and gentlemen, you know if you

Speaker 1 (04:20):
There finally back. Diane and Darryln are back on the airwaves.
Speaker 8 (04:28):
Yes we are, Holy mackerel. Did Daryln finally make it in?
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (04:35):
She's here?
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Can you hear me?
Speaker 8 (04:36):
Why can you hear me?
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I can hear you, Daryl.
Speaker 8 (04:42):
It's been like we only talk to each other. Like
it's been a little crazy time obviously for both of us.
We've yeah a lot of catching up to do. I
think how many months has it been, close to five?
I think five or six months that we've I've both
had a lot of issues going on in our lives.
(05:04):
My dog does my dog, my baby. It was.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I don't know, it was really cold that night, I
think it was even snowing, and the kids were all
messing around. It was a bunch of kids in the house,
and uh, next thing I knew, I'm like, where's Blue?
And everyone's like, oh, I don't know. I thought you
let her out. No, you let her out, and you
letter and so I called her and called her. She
sometimes goes behind our house and she loves our neighbor
(05:31):
because there's a German shepherd there. Now there's a new puppy,
but whatever there she's connected to that house. She loves
the people there, maybe because they're former law enforcement, and
sits up on the deck and watches the house. So
I went over there. Have you seen her walk there?
I slept on the couch for Oh my god, I'm
gonna cry for like two days. I had every light
(05:51):
on outside. Me and my kids. We have four acres here.
We walked to the perimeter. We didn't see a damn thing.
I don't know what made me do it, but I
started to walk down to this little marsh that's in
front of my house. Our neighbor called it a vernal pool,
but whatever, and there she was. Oh my god, I
(06:12):
screamed so loud. I called my friend Kim. I can't
believe nobody called the police on me, but I mean
that's how loud. I was screaming, my baby, my baby,
Oh my god. And she looked like she was sleeping
right in front of the fireplace. So I was like,
(06:33):
oh my god, this is so horrible, Like I felt terrible,
and you know, she comes right to the door. Was
just so unusual. So I thought maybe she got into
some poison. So my friend helped me load her body
up and I drove her to Angela Moral and had
a full lecropsy. Well. I was so glad that she
didn't eat anything poison, and selfishly I was relieved it
(06:55):
didn't have anything to do like with me, like doing
something wrong or her getting into something. Her stomach flipped
and the vet was like she most she died like instantly,
poor baby, but she was the best, best, best dog,
the best dog. And so I put up all the
pictures of her. I forgave her for all the time
(07:17):
she pooped in the kitchen, yeah, trying to decide what
to do with her ashes.
Speaker 8 (07:23):
And for those that might not remember, Blue was the
one that got the squirrel like chipmunk out of the
hus for Darryl. If anyone saw that.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Video, well, Hala have to post that again. She was
just such a good dog. But you know what it does,
It reminds us that life is short, a lot shorter
if you're a dog. But life is short, and you
have to enjoy the people in your life and you
have to tell them that you love them. And you know,
at this point in my life, I find that there's
(07:52):
two kinds of people, helpful and not helpful. Yeah, right,
helpful and not helpful, and that that just breaks things
down and makes it a lot easier. And you know,
you don't get consumed by anything because if something's not helpful,
you can just you know, you have the freedom to
walk away. And I gave myself that freedom to you know,
(08:15):
to stay away from anybody who.
Speaker 8 (08:17):
Was negative, not helpful.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Right, But that's why we have dogs. Because they love
us unconditionally.
Speaker 8 (08:24):
And I mean I kind of a weird comparison, but
I lost my father I can laugh about because he's
probably up there gone. Hey, Daryln lost their dog and
Diane lost their dad. But anyways, he's.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
About myself and he's up.
Speaker 8 (08:47):
There with my dogs, you know, and your dog probably too. Whatever.
He's probably like god, Daryln oh Man, I remember her
when she was a kid.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Why was she always speaking?
Speaker 8 (09:02):
It's just too bad you weren't there when my brother
climbed in the bathroom window while my dad was on
the toilet. That was the best ever you could ever
watch your brother get in trouble? Is that?
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Because I always thought he was so my brother.
Speaker 8 (09:20):
No, but he's one of the guys.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
Older than us.
Speaker 8 (09:23):
Well, I mean he also had the right friends too.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
And he was cool. Yeah, what the hell did I know?
Speaker 8 (09:31):
I mean, he's my brother. I don't think he's cool,
but you know, others probably might have. I don't know,
but he was older than us even though. No, anyways,
I digress, but yes.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
That's hysterical. I want to hear that story. So Danny's
crawling through the window.
Speaker 8 (09:46):
Yes, yes, And because my father I saw my father
went in because I had someone like a friend sleeping
over and we were like on the pull up coach
or whatever. My dad goes into the bathroom and then
they both come out of the bathroom after I heard
screaming in the bathroom. It's like what because the bulkhead,
the bulkhead was on the outside of the bathroom window.
(10:07):
So my brother was climbing on the bullhead to come
into the window, thinking that's the best. I mean, as
a little sister, you couldn't ask for more priceless memory
that you'll never ever let your brother ever forget, even
though to this day he'll try and deny it, but
it happened.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Oh yeah, you can't say something like that because that's
too crazy to make up, you know, absolutely, But yeah,
I was really sorry about your dad. I lost my
dad from It's hard and that was a yeah, it
was a big punch in the gut.
Speaker 8 (10:40):
Yeah. And you know, you see all the things saying,
you know, hug them because you just never know. And
and the part that stayed with me the most, which is,
you know, I've had a hard time reconciling with it,
and I'm very Oh, I have to speak about it.
Because if I don't was I had stayed at Darwn's
(11:01):
house while she was taking care of something up in
Boston whatever, and the day I went home. But anyhow,
the day I came home that Friday, we were expecting
a huge snowstorm, and I said to myself, should have
stop at my parents. And then I'm like, I know
what the traffic is, like, it's horrible. I'm gonna, you know,
(11:23):
I'll go home and I'll come down to see him.
And the next morning he had a massive cardiac arrest
and died pretty much instantly. So that's that's guilt. I mean,
it's guilt that stays with you. But I will talk
about it because.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
But you can pay and he'll hear you.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
That morning because you drove down to my mom's that
morning though, was even though they had the snow, there
was a bird that was on the bushes right outside
of their window, looking right in the window, literally about
two hours after he had passed, looking directly in the
window at my mother. It was just a bird out
of nowhere, and it just and I'm like, you know,
that's a sign. I am taking that as a sign.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Right, good for you? We all need signs.
Speaker 8 (12:06):
Yeah, absolutely, so, it's it's for both Daryln and I.
It's been a very crazy few months where we both
had a lot of upheavals, a lot of good moments,
bad moments, something that we both were at the point
where now you poor people out there listening to this
show because we're back and we're gonna.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Be oh, what's that? Is?
Speaker 8 (12:31):
It?
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Is it? The is it?
Speaker 8 (12:34):
Aryl Smith?
Speaker 2 (12:39):
How did you do that? You have it? Rick?
Speaker 1 (12:42):
We had it? But yeah, I have it.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
I'll just coombobilated because it's been five months. I felt
like a rookie and I think I spoke over three commercials.
Speaker 8 (12:53):
That's like I didn't even know when to talk.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
You guys know, hang on, you guys tried to talk
over commercials and I muted you.
Speaker 8 (13:01):
He did, like, I don't even know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Well, we could have been talking to each other.
Speaker 8 (13:07):
But interesting enough, so obviously, you know, not only will
we be talking about, you know, some of the impacts
in New England politics, but we're really going to be
focusing a lot on what's going on in the US
and you know, all the idiots that are out there.
I actually went by one of those indivisible whatever they
(13:30):
want to call themselves protests. That was in Conquord, New Hampshire,
and it was it was literally all geriatrics and the
usual suspects, and they're all holding these people who could
be easily manipulated. The ones that were paid that, you know,
needed a couple of bucks. I think the younger ones
got a couple of bucks, and then the older ones
were your academia and you're you know, the what does
(13:53):
someone call them the boomers dragging their basement children? I
think so I started that was like that. I was like,
that is actually pretty accurate.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Well, you know, my kids just told me that they're
eighteen in their adults now and I'm like, well, bitch,
your insurance is now twenty four hundred dollars adult. He
was adult.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
I tried to say that to my twenty six year old.
She's like, but it's the family plan that my thirty
six year old is still on our phone plan because
she's like, it's the family plan, mom, Like really really?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
So I'm hoping that we can do some compare and contrast.
What I was thinking about, and we haven't talked about
this before, but what Trump is doing, what effects it's
had on the market. I think anyone who has investments
probably lost about thirty or forty thousand dollars if you
were fairly well spread, you know, with your risk. And
(14:54):
I remember his first term. I think I made three
hundred thousand, three point fifty in his first term. So
I'm not worried so anyone else who you know, you
can't watch those things every single day. It's like weighing
yourself every day. Right, Well, no, I I think that's
the opposite. Then at least you know, if you get
a pound over, you're like, okay, no ice cream.
Speaker 8 (15:16):
No, you don't weigh yourself every day because things can
change and it's fluid every single day. It's that's why
the same thing with the stock market. If you look
at it every day, it's gonna go up, it's gonna
go down. It's you do it your way. I'll have
the damn ice cream, all right.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
On a thing that says, hey, hello Steve, I'm gonna
jump out the window. My boyfriend told me she got
on it and she had gained a little bit of
weight and the thing said hello Joseph, her husband, and
he was like, shit, I get a listen away.
Speaker 8 (15:51):
But it's it's you know, it's you know, we talk
about the tariffs, you know, and my husband thinks that
they're fantastic. He's and not. He's in an industry that's
not subsidized. He's like, why can't it be subsidized, But
that's not subsidized, that has actually been impacted greatly by
(16:11):
what happens, you know with China and even like Costa
Rica Mexico. These are the areas in his part of
manufacturing that have impacted greatly that they cannot compete with them.
It's very difficult. And so he's he's saying, you know what,
the tariffs gives an equal playing ground. And I know
some people are upset or against it, but guess what
(16:32):
they're all coming to the table now to talk literally well.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
I mean, what he's trying to do is to reduce
the trade deficit between the United States in you know, China,
in you know, the UK. So well, the world's announced
it a baseline ten percent tax plus reciprocal tariffs from
I don't know, like eighty other countries or something, so
(16:57):
you know, I think we want to be on somewhat
of an equal level. And anyone knows it's you know,
before you make the deal. It's tumultuous. You know, once
you make the deal, you go your own way.
Speaker 8 (17:10):
It's like you throw something out and you negotiate. You
throw you usually go with your you know, highest, and
then you negotiate to where it is actually beneficial to both.
It's so it's the simple negotiations. You throw something out
that it's going to kiss people off. But guess what
they're also going to realize is he serious? And they
(17:31):
know that that this president, yes, he will be serious,
so they know we better come to the table at
least have a talk and see, you know, where we
can come up with a compromise that's beneficial. And Trump
is going to make it beneficial for Americans.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Well, you know, all the press is asking about like
miss miss mixed messages coming from his administration, and he
said two things can be true at the same same time.
You know, tariffs can be permanent or open to negotiation.
I mean it's yeah, so you know, it's there's always
(18:10):
the option that's on the table, and many countries want
to negotiate. And in China, when you think of that,
like it might hurt for a while, but if he
doesn't pose a what is he saying a fifty tax
on China tariff sorry, because of their retailiatory and in
(18:33):
response to Beijing's retailatory tariffs on US exports. So then
he comes back and puts a fifty percent tariff on China.
I mean, it's it's just gonna we're exchanging punches.
Speaker 8 (18:45):
And well, well the thing too that I would see
and this is what we found out when some of
our industry that that our company did work with, when
they went to China, not only he know, did everything
get undercut, but they also stole all of the blueprints
(19:05):
or all of the parts or all of the you know,
information on how to make all this stuff. And then
they turn around and you know make it for of
course far less, but they have no they don't recognize like,
you know, brands, they don't recognize anything over there. So
it's like my question is why would you bother to
(19:26):
you know, invest over there, obviously unless you want to
make a buck. But you're going to lose all of
your copyrights, you're going to lose all your trade barks,
you're going to lose everything if you do business in China.
And that's just my personal opinion. And it's disposable I
always find a product that's purchased in China is a
disposable item. It is not something that's always that. And
(19:47):
I would rather sometimes, you know, invest in something that's
going to last a whole hell of a lot longer
if I really like it.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Well, I learned this lesson from my friend Christine Barrick.
We both went to Boston, Latin together. She worked extra
and instead of buying five, you know, old navy sweaters.
I don't know if you remember her, she would buy
like one cash Man sweater. When we were in high school.
She had fashion. So, you know, I think it's good
(20:20):
to invest in in America too, and I wish that
we would have the trade schools start to teach kids
to start to make things again, and have more manufacturing
in the United States and have real American cars back again,
(20:41):
not like Tesla's on fire.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Well, oh no, we lost die because her phone went
to sleep because she didn't set up her computer again today. Well,
she'll be back in a second.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Oh boy, we're going to have to get her a laptop.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Well, apparently, according to her, she has one, but she
didn't have time to set it up today, so her
phone went to sleep. Anyway she should be back right
about now.
Speaker 8 (21:12):
I'm here, can you hear me? No, it was I
went it was an accident.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
This is I forgot. No, I wasn't an.
Speaker 8 (21:30):
Accident, and now it was.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
I like it.
Speaker 8 (21:35):
I'm like not even touching my phone, and I touched it.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
You know what. I every time I talk to you
this week, and I think a couple other people. I
don't know why, but my chin hit the face the
face time button. Yes, every single time.
Speaker 8 (21:51):
I have no idea Hello.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
But like I was saying, I think I also want
to see what the Supreme Judicial Court does, what sort
of decisions that they'll make, you know, in comparison to
ones they've made in the last four years. I have
to see if any of us, say, like any of
the John Roberts stuff.
Speaker 8 (22:12):
But I have to I have to say never if
if people looking at Democrats right now and the stuff
that they're standing, you know, staking their lives and their
political careers on are gang members and forcing them to
come back and you know, save our social security when
it's not being touched in the first place. And the
(22:35):
fact that they're fighting against all the fraud, I mean,
the fraud is outrageous absolutely. Some of the stuff I've
seen is just an embarrassment.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
What about when Trump was reading off all these stuffs
of dollars, like do monkeys like red yellow, red nail
polish or blueenail pause for one point one million dollars?
I mean, it was things that were there they were studying.
Speaker 8 (23:05):
One of the latest ones that came out I think
was lgbtqxwyz reading comic books. Why do they read these
specific comic books in Hong Kong, I think, or something
like that.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
How about this I don't care backdoor way to give
the good.
Speaker 8 (23:21):
Yeah, all they're NGOs and they're historical because their their
funding stream has been cut and they don't like it,
and it's a little bit too bad.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
A lot of people like to work in the nonprofit
industry because you make a ton of money.
Speaker 8 (23:36):
Well here's the thing, okay, planned parenthood.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
It's usually a political organization.
Speaker 8 (23:41):
Planned Parenthood, for example, receives federal funds, even though of
course they're not used for quotation mark abortions. However, what
nonprofit do you know of that has a profit on
their tax return of between forty eight and sixty million
dollars per year? A nonprofit that's that's the exactly.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
I mean, that's the money they still have on the books.
Speaker 8 (24:07):
So someone needs to explain to us. But someone needs
to explain. Okay, if you have a nonprofit making that
type of money and having a profit of that much,
they don't need federal funds. I don't care what they
do with their you know, with their money, but they
don't need any federal funds if they're showing a profit
(24:29):
of that much every year.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
No, you don't, I mean they they there's rules. I mean,
that's not an and.
Speaker 8 (24:36):
Apparently the I r S doesn't enforce it when it
comes to Planned parenthood. I've seen their tax returns. I've
gone through the year after year. They make a profit
every single year.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Well, you know, regardless of what I think about planned parenthood,
a nonprofit exactly, and it seems like no one wants
to enforce rules. And and I'll tell you, I am
so looking forward to State Auditor Diana Disady. I mean,
(25:10):
she's the doge of Massachusetts.
Speaker 8 (25:12):
And I think for those who who aren't familiar with it,
but a lot I've talked to a lot of people
in Massachusetts. They she's the mass state legislature has refused
to let her audit their books, so she brought it
as a ballot question of mass Mass ninety Mass taxpayers
(25:34):
when they voted voted to have her audit the Mass legislature. Well,
guess what, they're still not letting her audit. And they
are shady. They make all of their decisions behind closed doors.
They have very few open sessions, and they're in complete
violation of, in my opinion, open meeting laws. But worse,
(25:56):
they require all local municipalities, local school districts to have
a balanced budget and everything has to be open and audited,
and their own legislature is not doing it.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Not only that, but Andrea Campbell is the highest law
enforcement person in the state. She's the attorney general, and
she's actively ignoring the voters. And I believe she's breaking
the laar. And I think they'll give her a little
bit of time. But there's a new US attorney Leah b.
(26:34):
I think it's fully Gosh, I can't remember. I think
it's leab Fully. Let me just check. Some of our
friends have actually done cases with her when she was
a prosecutor.
Speaker 8 (26:47):
And she's good. And because she's.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Yes, Leah Bi filil so glad I didn't get her
name wrong. Oh forgive me if anybody knows Leah. But
friends of mine have worked on wires and gangs and drugs,
and she was a great prosecutor, you know, a really
good person. And Joshua Levey, the Democrat, I think he
did it. I think he did a great job. I mean,
you really couldn't lose after Rachel Rollins.
Speaker 8 (27:12):
You had to do is breathe and you're better than.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
In racing, so so, uh, you know, Josh Josh Levy
did a great job too. But I think you're going
to see good things from Leah. And you know, when
conservative women get into these high positions, I really think
you'll start to see a lot of change.
Speaker 8 (27:33):
Because, oh, you're talking about that as.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Narcissism in politics. You know, there's narcissism, and I think
some women are you know, have that narcissist tendency, some
of them, but they're more collaborative.
Speaker 8 (27:48):
And and we were happy that one of our previous guests,
todd Lyons, was actually named interim too. Was it nice?
What position did he go into?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Yes, but of the whole show, Yeah.
Speaker 8 (28:02):
We had him on our show. He's a great guy
and we're you know, we're trying to work on getting
him to come back to our little, humble show. Yeah,
but guess guess who I reached out to to come
on our show, which will probably never happen, but I.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Well, let me just say this, Todd Lyons is a
Boston boy.
Speaker 8 (28:20):
Okay, so you should come on our show because he
already was on our show and he liked us, and
we asked questions that nobody else asked, so he must
remember us. I sent him I send a message because
I think he's hysterical. But it's Johnny bell Sario, who's
the one that does the interviews for Jesse Waters. Because
I'm like, I would love to have you come on
our show because I think he's absolutely historical. And I
(28:45):
know he's like the producer, like one of the producers
of the show whatever, but I think he is so
funny when he asked those questions to the college students,
So I'm like, all he can do is say, now,
are not answer? You know what I'm good at begging.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
To do that. I would love to do that. You
and I should do that some when it gets warm
out on the cape and just do a red Wine
goes to Falmouth and you know, just stop and ask
people a few questions. I think it would be fabulous.
Speaker 8 (29:12):
Oh my god, we'd be probably murdered.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
No, well in Falmouth, maybe maybe we should go to
I think it would be fun and just simple questions.
Speaker 8 (29:23):
Yeah, like can you can you name the three branches
of the government. I'm like, literally like, oh, this is embarrassing.
These are these are our kids, and you wonder why
we're ranked fortieth in the world right now. I mean
this is a direct result, as I've said, of the
dumbing down of education starting in both administrations. I shouldn't
(29:46):
say both administrations, both political parties are beyond guilty about it,
because we have teachers that are now teaching to the test,
and they've been losing about eight weeks of educational learning
time every single year. That is because they have to
teach the test, because they have to have these tests
for the federal government to give money. Are you wondering
why I'm one hundred percent in support of the US
(30:09):
Department of Education being shuttered, shut down, goodbye, good audence.
We don't need you. And everybody's like, oh, kids, you
know for special education aren't gonna be funded. They're not
funded now, Oh, they are funded. They're supposed to be
funded at forty percent from the federal government and it's
(30:29):
never been above twenty percent in the past fifty years,
and right now it's thirteen to fourteen percent because we
are funding all of these other DEI initiatives through the
US Department of Education and Congress is you know, they're
they're shirking their duty both sides, because this is not
just a single party issue, this is both sides. So
(30:50):
I would tell every single person listening, if you have
anybody running for Congress, or you have anybody running for Senate,
make them commit to fund ID. Make them commit to it.
It's been fifty years. It is the fifty year anniversary
this year of when that act passed. They keep expanding
what's covered. And these are our most vulnerable students and
(31:10):
they deserve everything that they can get, you know, to
be problem to be exactly, but the federal government expands
it and it's on the backs of local taxpayers. And
you know, you have literally three or four kids in
smaller towns that get outsourced because obviously the school can't
(31:32):
you know, handle what needs they have. It can break
the back of the budget it's gone. I mean, I
don't think because they have no control over what gets charged.
And this is I think the whole problem. I think,
what does is trying to do because like Medicare, for example,
seven dollars for a Q tip and you can't bring
your own Q tips in Nope, Nope, we got when
(31:53):
they ever charged my father in law that I said,
are you kidding me? Seven? Literally, the case manager would
run in the direction because I'd be like, I just
got this itemized bill seven dollars for a Q tip?
Are you out of your mind? And I'd be like,
can we bring a box? Nope? It has to be
what we well, why what's so special about yours?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
That should be fraud?
Speaker 8 (32:14):
But Medicare.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
But the schools, what they do is for I have
a friend who had three dyslexic sons. She's an expert
now on how to sue the school to get her
son a proper education. And that's what they make you
do because obviously, if you have a special needs kid
and not we're not talking like high functioning, right, they
(32:37):
have to have a job where they work minimal hours.
So typically unless they're very fortunate, you know, they have
to go out and pay an attorney to fight the
school attorney, and they spend so much money, and the
money that both parties spent between the two of them
with lawyers could have been spent to provide an education
(32:58):
for this childless.
Speaker 8 (32:59):
Sometimes that is more of negligent special education director that
doesn't you know, want to sit there obviously and spend money.
In New Hampshire we have child find so at the
age of three, every local district has to put out
an ad for you know, any children that may qualify
(33:20):
so that the child can start you know, eligible for
the preschool program because they know that this earlier you start,
the more benefit it is for the child. I mean,
I've watched a child go from not being able to
walk and not really functioning to you know, preschool to
walking because they work as, they get physical therapy, they
(33:43):
get occupational therapy, they get everything so that they're able
to you know, be in the classroom, which is great
because I mean I remember when we were growing up there,
they used to be in their own classroom. They weren't
put in our classes.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
I had a kid in my class that picked his
nose and ate it every single interesting.
Speaker 8 (34:04):
The memories and.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
Although I don't like boogie right. This is I must
have been in the like fourth and fifth or something grade,
and they tortured this kid every day and he would
pee his pants, and I thought, why are his parents
subjecting him to this? He has no friends, he can't
control his bladder, he eats his boggers every every single day.
(34:28):
And even at that age, I had empathy for that kid.
But then when my kids went to school, I pulled
up to pick up my daughter and there was two
cruisers there and an ambulance and a fire truck, and
all these kids were marching out of the room because
one kid was throwing a chair. So now we're disrupting
(34:50):
thirty nine kids because of one kid.
Speaker 8 (34:52):
Well, I mean, that's that's that's technically mind somewhere. That's
I wouldn't necessarily say that, that's something that that's more
under the I wouldn't call it special needs. That's more
of the obstruction. I can't remember the name of it
because we had students and we've had students that they
(35:16):
they've been diagnosed with. I can't remember the name of it.
I'm so sorry. It's like it's something that has to
do with like authority, and they act out. Yeah, they
act out, and before you know they they don't allow
people to touch the students anymore. Where before you could
sit there and like kind of hold them in place,
(35:39):
or you know, to like remove them from the classroom,
You're not allowed to anymore. You're not even allowed to
put your hands on their wrists anymore. And a lot
of times they take the kids out because it's stafer
to take the kids up. I think they're moving away
from that where now they're there's associated it's not anahave
(35:59):
a specialists that can actually go into the classroom and
work with the work with the child. Those are the
ones that you're finding will be outsourced because a lot
of times the schools can't can't deal with it, so
they'll they'll put the student in the facility that specializes
in that and they can go on and become a
productive tool. Won't they have to pay for it? And
(36:22):
the kids right they have? If if the.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Little kids if traumatized because some kids throng, if the.
Speaker 8 (36:30):
Target team deems that the child cannot function in the classroom,
he goes. Parents can't overrule it. They because the school
basically says that, you know, we'll educate your child, but
it will be at home, so this is your choice,
and they pretty much, you know, they don't want to
deal with it. And a lot of times, a lot
(36:51):
of these kids, it has to do with the parents
really not there's also other parents that are so invested
in their child and they want what's best from it. Unfortunately,
this is something that the child has. You know, it
could be due to you know, being born to addicted
parents and you know, feed a alcohol syndrome, that type
(37:13):
of stuff, whatever. And now these type of schools can
specialize in it, or you may have actually someone that's
on staff that can specialize in it. But when the
school can't, you know, do what's best for the child,
then sometimes going to the the schools that can specialize
in it are really great. But you're also looking at
(37:33):
one hundred thousand dollars just to transport, sometimes not including
what the school costs. And that's what the big issue is.
It's so much, and you know, you have to look
at these programs and find out why are they allowed
to charge that much? Is it because it's a public
school district, you know what I mean? So, but I'm
(37:56):
always like, you know, the they we I mean, we
had one student god that you know, he he had
impulse issues and one of his impulses one time in
the classroom was I feel like I'm going to take
my pen and stab the girl next to me, and
he did it so that that at that point he
(38:18):
had never done anything. So that was where it was like, okay,
we really the target team really took effect and you know,
met with because he was his grandparents I think was
the in charge of him, met and realized that at
that point in time he was not going to be
able to be in the classroom. He was sweet as
you could ever meet when he but that because of
(38:42):
the fact that he could not control the impulses of
where it was now starting to harmor the students, that's
where you have to sit there and take action and
it's hard. I mean you feel bad, but you know
he ended up going on to you know, learn how
to you know, things to control his impulses, whether it
(39:02):
was medication or whatnot. So he's he's a productive.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
When you said drug addicted, maybe that I you know,
I everybody knows I worked under cover narcotics for ten years.
But when my twins, my twins were born early, so
they were six weeks early, and I had to get
transported up to Boston, and I think I don't even
know how long we were there, but I got to
come home with with Chris and Shane had to stay
(39:34):
up in Boston, and then Shane was transported to Plymouth Deaconess.
And it's it's the nurses would say that they loved
to hold them because most premies are are so tiny,
and you know they're really taught, you don't get a
chance to really hold them. But there was this one
baby that we called a big nick and his parents
(39:56):
smelled like cigarettes, alcohol and pot every time they came
in there. The kid was withdrawing from heroin. He was
crying all the time, and it was the saddest thing
I had ever experienced, this innocent baby with drawing from heroin.
And I remember saying to the nick, you and I
was like, how do you do this? She goes? You
(40:21):
just get really happy with the healthy ones.
Speaker 8 (40:25):
That's so sad. I mean, I suppose you look at
it in At least they actually showed up to the
hospital to visit them, because some won't.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Bother exactly right. And I'll never forget when I was
at Tufts with that when we were at I had
the baby at the you know where everybody gets shot
in Boston.
Speaker 8 (40:41):
That's comfortable.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
You see a whole family, like a Spanish family or
a Brazilian family, the whole family comes. There's like twenty
people praying over these babies, and then you look over
at two other babies and there's nobody there. It's just
so sad to start, you know alone.
Speaker 8 (41:02):
Yeah, I mean, and I think that's hopefully. You know,
one of the issues that Trump's trying to me not
is the drug issues, and I think it's kind of
taken a backseat to every single hysterical reporting of the media,
and it's like they honestly think people like aren't like
(41:25):
we've been down this rodeo. We're reading on this for
us before. It's not going to work this time. I'm like,
it's too much.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
I'm excited to see what he's what he was going
to do. I wasn't really happy with Pete. I'm gonna
say his neighboring.
Speaker 8 (41:43):
And I actually like him. I think he's he's you know,
people say he's not.
Speaker 2 (41:50):
But my impression is, you know, if you added if
somebody added a reporter to signal all right, it got added.
Stop saying that it didn't. We're saying that this wasn't important,
that wasn't important. Just move on, you know, just move
on where we were supposed to be the Transparency Administration, Like,
(42:11):
just move on from it, or don't say anything about it.
Speaker 8 (42:14):
I mean, they were transparent about it, which you would expect.
It was added by mistake. Whalts took responsibility for it,
and that should have been the end of it. When
the when the Atlantic Reporter put the messages out there,
there's nothing in there.
Speaker 2 (42:30):
What's the funniest thing about that? He was like, this
was such a destruction to American democracy and safety. And
I was like, you're the only one telling the story.
Speaker 8 (42:41):
Well, but here's the thing. When you read it, when
you read the text messages, it didn't say the load cations.
It didn't have a times I want to talk. I
we need to get Captain Jim on because I'm pretty
sure he would probably be like, yeah, dude, seriously, I mean,
you know, and I liked like Trump said, well, they're
not going to be coming back to because they're.
Speaker 2 (43:08):
Dead, but let's give everybody a little taste before we
leave about you know, we do have to get back
to auditor Dizaglio. She has committed to come on, and
we're just gonna have to pick a date that's convenient
for her. But I'm I'm super excited. She's actually funny.
(43:30):
I I and before we asked her to come on
the show, I you know, did my research and everything,
and and she was somewhere and then she says, well,
how do you get a seat at the table. She's
like when people tell you your hands too curly and
you talk too much and you're too loud, and then
she just pulled up a chair and sat next to
these two people, like, Hi, she is. I admire her.
(43:59):
She's a Democrat, she is, but she's also very senseful
and passionate.
Speaker 8 (44:04):
But but she's also not your typical someone that's that
that that's gonna be. She takes her job seriously, what
her role is in that job seriously, and she's not
someone that's gonna just like bend over like I had
hopes briefly for Seth Moulton when he came out and
(44:25):
spoke and who's he's the congressman when he came out
and spoke against transgender you know, boys or girls. What
I was playing in female sports. He's totally against it,
all right, but.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
Then yeah, but that doesn't make it. Yes, it's like.
Speaker 8 (44:40):
Oh my gosh, seriously, like you can't you know, and
and you know, like you know, geene Chahen thank god,
is not running again. But my congress guy, PAPIs is running.
He already put his name into run for senator. And
then the check that's that's married to the former deputy
(45:02):
defense thing. Oh yeah, planning on what's a good Hue
or whatever the helloen name is? Good stupid shut. I
can't stand him, whatever the hellow name is. Anyways, that's
how much I think of her. She's she's taking a
point in her name and I'm like.
Speaker 2 (45:16):
You can't even bad talker without it's not.
Speaker 8 (45:19):
Good Hue or whatever, Maggie good whatever. She's the one
that was married to Miller, the one that's on the
Biden thing whatever, Jake Miller whatever. Anyways, she's been oh,
I don't know a congress man for like and she's
a lot lot but for literally two months and she's like, well,
maybe I'm gonna run for senate. Know the hell, you're not, bitch,
because who's going to vote for you?
Speaker 2 (45:39):
Not me? Don't you have to slap a couple of
people if you're a congress maybe.
Speaker 8 (45:45):
I mean they had crazy Annie Custer who she took
her place so and then Annie Custer who's not said
she's gonna run. I'm like seriously, I'm like, oh my god,
this is where like Kris Sinunu needs to just put
his name in and run, because I honestly think of
christan Uno runs he would definitely win that seat. There's
no ifans or boughts about it. He would win that seat.
Speaker 2 (46:07):
Wouldn't you have had to start raising money? Will it?
Speaker 8 (46:10):
Publicly? Still has money in his campaign funds from when
he was governor. He's not like Charlie Baker who sits
there and pays it all off, you know, to the
little consultants at are twenty six years old, that it
turns around and funnels the money probably back to him.
And I did hear that. I heard the rumor Charlie
Baker might be running against what's you call it, Ed Markey.
(46:33):
That was a rumor I heard.
Speaker 2 (46:34):
Oh, give me a break.
Speaker 8 (46:36):
Yes, that's a rumor. I heard.
Speaker 2 (46:39):
Who's worse.
Speaker 8 (46:40):
I don't know, Well, you got one that's a complete
loan and then you have one that's not even.
Speaker 2 (46:45):
Making three million dollars a year. Just Charlie go away already.
Speaker 8 (46:49):
But it's like, and you know, you see all the
news articles, Oh they won the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Democrats
are coming back. Well if if we find out what
they did in the you know, Carolina, is that those
sixty five thousand ballots that you know are going to
be disqualified. Uh let's see how close that actually was
(47:09):
out there, Because I'm just saying, if you vote for
a liberal, if you want to know what it was, okay,
I can tell you why she won because they had
all college students go in and vote for the top
of the ballot. But the question about voter ID, you know,
being required as the ballot measure, okay, was probably not
(47:32):
one of the first three questions because college students will
go in and only vote for like the top two
or three whatever.
Speaker 2 (47:39):
Right, right, right, But yet the voter.
Speaker 8 (47:41):
ID question passed overwhelmingly. So that just goes to show
that they had the college students going in just to
vote to make sure that that liberal justice got in.
And I would love to do a data analysis on
that because I'm pretty confident that that's what it'll probably
show freaking college student and should not be allowed to
(48:01):
vote in the state unless they actually have a vested
interest in they're going to live there. That's my opinion.
People don't like it too bad.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
No, I agree, you know, I sometimes I think you
should have to be thirty to low. But I have
a mortgage going on. But you said Charlie Baker. I
guess this guy, Mike Kanneely that's running is a Charlie
Baker deputy. So oh, you know, well, that's what we
have to look forward to, another squishy Republican governor. I
(48:34):
wish Diana Desaglio would run. Maybe she will.
Speaker 8 (48:39):
I mean, I actually believe it or not. We have
in this state. In Hampshire. I actually for two because
our governors are only two year terms, and I voted
twice for Democrat John Lynch. I liked him. He was
very middle of the road, he worked with both sides,
he was bipartisan. I liked what he did. Never voted
(49:01):
for Shaheen and never would voted for this. One of
the governor's Republican Craig Benson, who is just horrible, and
he was the Republican. I was like, oh my god,
you are that bad? And then you know, I think
Maggie hasen like she was terrible, came after him whatever,
and then Sanuna, who I thought Snunu did a really
(49:21):
good job even though did I like everything he said? No,
I did not. But he also doesn't take any shit
like I mean, like when I've seen him go on
CNN and he's just like, really, did you really just
say that? That's like, you know, come on, give me
a break.
Speaker 2 (49:41):
Do you want to laugh? No?
Speaker 8 (49:45):
Yes, I do, Okay, I was.
Speaker 2 (49:47):
I just you know, while we were talking, I pumped
in Kanneely's name. And what he's counting on is Trump
voters thinking Kanneely is a lot better than Healy. But
that's a calculus that Trump voters will say is true.
But here's his lineup. Other Republicans mentioned the potential candidates
(50:08):
for governor, Worcester County Sheriff Lou Evangeliitis, former NBT chief
Brian short Sleeve and John Deeton, and Senator Peter.
Speaker 8 (50:20):
John Deeton is a piece of crap, Like I think
that's the best they can do. That's the best they
can do.
Speaker 2 (50:26):
Yeah, to import a criminal. I don't know what this
sheriff is like but if you know, if he's part
of the Wista mafia, he's you know, no better than
Tim Whalen. Right, we need we just need to have
some people who will do the right thing, and that
that group doesn't seem like it.
Speaker 8 (50:47):
No, I mean, I will say that Kennely is that
his name, Kannelim has a great great tagline. Canneally is
better than Haley. I mean that that would stick. That
would be a brand that I would absolutely do. It
would stick. People would be like Conneli's better than Heley Connely.
Speaker 2 (51:06):
I'm not.
Speaker 8 (51:06):
I'm gonna vote for Kanneli, not Healy. You know what,
It's perfect. You couldn't even couldn't You couldn't make that up.
Speaker 1 (51:14):
I mean, people, And now you're making me want Cannoli,
so please.
Speaker 2 (51:20):
Canoli and Babyloni.
Speaker 8 (51:25):
Or the lobster clause. You know that the jumbo lobster clause.
Speaker 2 (51:29):
I made the best steak and cheese last night. I
burned the hell out of it and then I put
some mushrooms on.
Speaker 1 (51:35):
It, and all right, the show's ending. Early on that
folk were out n Daryland.
Speaker 8 (51:40):
Dylands say cockyscki takis.
Speaker 1 (51:47):
When you lose them all the time, when you lose
those in Texas, you can't find your pants. When you
lose him in Boston, you can't start your car.
Speaker 8 (51:54):
There's my cockies.
Speaker 2 (51:57):
Did I ever tell you?
Speaker 9 (51:58):
Like?
Speaker 2 (51:58):
We arrested a guy with an apall cocaine in his pants,
and when we got back to the barracks to triusk him,
he was like, these aren't my pants?
Speaker 10 (52:05):
Wait use that one on.
Speaker 8 (52:09):
That's my pity. That's one of the best lines ever. Imagine.
Speaker 2 (52:14):
Okay, you.
Speaker 4 (52:16):
Go now.
Speaker 8 (52:19):
Can you imagine? Oh my god, that should go in
the book.
Speaker 2 (52:24):
Oh speaking of now, I'm a brand new right and
the sergeant I won't tell you what we call him
because eybody will know who he is. But he put
the arm on everybody, so he sent me down to
pick up. Of course, they put the arm on everybody
for free Chinese food back in nineteen ninety three, right,
And the poor guy's like, how much Too Troop I eat?
It is like nineteen bags I'm trying to put in
(52:46):
my cruiser smelled like Chinese food for like a month.
Speaker 10 (52:50):
How much Too Trooper is e?
Speaker 2 (52:51):
And I said, I will never do that again. No
way did they make you pay for it? No, it
was free. That's why I didn't want to go do it.
I felt stupid. Then then they would they would staple
the tickets to the top of the bag tickets because
they would take the big you know, the bus from
the China town to Oh yeah, you know, I used
to go back all the time. Oh my good times.
(53:14):
I can't do that stuff anymore in the day because
get that kind of crazy stuff you can't do.
Speaker 8 (53:25):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (53:26):
The only arm stuff stopped a long time ago, so
at least around here. But the only place that still
does it is water Burger, and it doesn't They'll do
it for cops or security. They don't care. They're just
happy somebody's coming through the drive through a two thirty
in the mornings.
Speaker 8 (53:38):
They still do it. I think the duncan's because you know,
I think they do.
Speaker 2 (53:43):
I think they do. But I could never take free
for it. I just didn't feel right. I'd pay for
somebody else's If they said no, what's on me, I said, okay,
I'll pay for that guy's food.
Speaker 8 (53:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (53:52):
I never wanted to be seen to take something from
somebody for free just because I had a uniform on.
It never felt right. When I was in the military either,
I just couldn't do it. I was embarrassed.
Speaker 8 (54:04):
Well, I mean I always liked it when someone's like, oh,
they paid for you, and and I'd be like, oh, great, thanks,
I'll pay for the person behind me.
Speaker 2 (54:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (54:10):
And then they're like, well, you know they got about
six you know, breakfast, sanwich and all that stuff. And
I'm like, I'm gonna pay for part of it and
pay for it.
