WEBVTT

1
00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:06.000
<v Speaker 1>It's nights with Dan Ray. I'm telling you easy Boston Radio.

2
00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:12.759
<v Speaker 2>All right, we have reached the twentieth hour, the last

3
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:14.640
<v Speaker 2>hour of the week. As I think all of you

4
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:17.239
<v Speaker 2>know that. We call it the twentieth hour pretty simply

5
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:20.960
<v Speaker 2>because we broadcast twenty hours a week on a full week.

6
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:23.839
<v Speaker 2>We're here Monday through Friday from eight until midnight. We

7
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:26.519
<v Speaker 2>being myself and Rob Brooks, the producer of the program.

8
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Rob is at the broadcast house in Medford. I'm broadcasting

9
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.960
<v Speaker 2>from a remote location. And of course we're on four

10
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:35.240
<v Speaker 2>hours a night, five nights a week, so five times

11
00:00:35.240 --> 00:00:39.799
<v Speaker 2>fo is twenty. I remember my multiplication tables from grammar school.

12
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 2>And we're going to open up a conversation tonight and

13
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.479
<v Speaker 2>the twentieth hour in which was suggested to me today

14
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:54.200
<v Speaker 2>by Marita. Okay, and it connects with me. I hope

15
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:56.719
<v Speaker 2>it connects with you. In a moment, I'm going to

16
00:00:56.759 --> 00:00:59.600
<v Speaker 2>go over what we've done this week. It's always amazing

17
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:04.879
<v Speaker 2>different subjects we have discussed this week. I'll get to

18
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:07.120
<v Speaker 2>that in a second. But for those of you who

19
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:10.040
<v Speaker 2>are interested in the twentieth hour, and again everyone has

20
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:11.799
<v Speaker 2>a hall pass this week, so of course if you

21
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.000
<v Speaker 2>called earlier this week, even if you called tonight, Hall

22
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:17.920
<v Speaker 2>Pass supplies and you can call. So the question is

23
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:22.359
<v Speaker 2>really simple. Doesn't matter how old you are, doesn't matter

24
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.519
<v Speaker 2>what your status in life was. Do you remember your

25
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:30.879
<v Speaker 2>first car? Not the first car that was given to

26
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:33.640
<v Speaker 2>you or the first car that you might have used.

27
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:35.799
<v Speaker 2>I guess if you want to consider it that way, now,

28
00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:38.680
<v Speaker 2>the first car that you actually bought. I will tell

29
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.200
<v Speaker 2>you about my first car, and I want to know

30
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:45.239
<v Speaker 2>what you paid for it too. Imagine what trying to

31
00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:47.200
<v Speaker 2>get a new car today if you were a young person,

32
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>forty fifty dollars in so many of these cars. And

33
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:53.359
<v Speaker 2>I know that there are cars that are less than that,

34
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:56.480
<v Speaker 2>but cars have become really expensive, but you need them.

35
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:59.239
<v Speaker 2>You need a car. For the most part. We always

36
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:02.480
<v Speaker 2>fight for cars, and we talk about bike lanes and

37
00:02:02.519 --> 00:02:04.040
<v Speaker 2>all of that stuff. But I just will like to

38
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:08.400
<v Speaker 2>reminisce your first car, the first car that really was

39
00:02:08.719 --> 00:02:13.599
<v Speaker 2>your car, something that you purchased. What was it? We'll

40
00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:17.319
<v Speaker 2>talk about that this week. You know, it's funny. The

41
00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:20.599
<v Speaker 2>week sometimes can seem very long when you're working to

42
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:24.039
<v Speaker 2>put together shows for five nights. But we started off

43
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:28.360
<v Speaker 2>this week talking with a teacher and a high school

44
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:33.400
<v Speaker 2>student from Lexington High School who were involved in a

45
00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:38.479
<v Speaker 2>tournament coming up in August, dealing excuse me. In June

46
00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:45.960
<v Speaker 2>in Atlanta, Georgia about financial literacy, talked about flood lighting,

47
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:49.319
<v Speaker 2>which is a new dating trend where people often on

48
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:53.400
<v Speaker 2>the rebound, have their first dates with people and all

49
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:55.439
<v Speaker 2>they do is tell them about their past problems. It's

50
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:00.680
<v Speaker 2>called floodlighting. We spoke with Sharif Mityas. He is CEO

51

52
00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:12.479
<v Speaker 2>former restaurant chains, out of bankruptcy, and they're doing that

53
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:15.919
<v Speaker 2>right now with Friendli's Restaurants. As a matter of fact,

54
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.280
<v Speaker 2>talked with him last night for an hour because he

55

62
00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:50.400
<v Speaker 2>to people who said that it wasn't really quite what

63
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:52.479
<v Speaker 2>you'd call a space mission, but it was kind of

64
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:55.400
<v Speaker 2>a space ride on Blue Origin. You might remember that.

119
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:24.439
<v Speaker 2>you pay for it. I'm not talking about the first

120
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:26.680
<v Speaker 2>car your parents let you borrow. That wasn't your car,

121
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:28.800
<v Speaker 2>it was a parent's car, but maybe the first car

122
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:33.639
<v Speaker 2>that you actually bought, and was it? How inexpensive was

123
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:38.680
<v Speaker 2>it depending upon your age and love to reminisce. This

124
00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:41.439
<v Speaker 2>is not my idea, this is Maritas. So come on,

125

<v Speaker 2>you Marina fans out there aka Lightning's Lightning. We try

127
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:56.000
<v Speaker 2>that is fun and we don't have to have very deep,

128
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:59.800
<v Speaker 2>serious conversations. I want you to go into the weekend.

129
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:02.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to the weekend happy guys. They're going to

130
00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:04.639

131

132
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:10.600
<v Speaker 2>our first night side brunch. Maybe there'll be a second.

133
00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:12.600
<v Speaker 2>I have no guarantee you of that, that's for sure,

134
00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:15.040
<v Speaker 2>but we have about one hundred and seventy eight reservations

135
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:18.800

140
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:32.080
<v Speaker 2>nine three one, ten thirty. Your first car, the first

141
00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:35.559
<v Speaker 2>one that you actually paid hard cold cash, probably not

142
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:38.679
<v Speaker 2>a lot of hard cold cash by today's standards. What

143
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:42.279
<v Speaker 2>was that car? And do you fondly remember it? I

144
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:46.000
<v Speaker 2>remember mine, I know you'll remember yours. It's almost like

145
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:47.799
<v Speaker 2>the first kiss. You know what I'm saying. We'll be

146
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:48.919
<v Speaker 2>back on Nightside after this.

147

148
00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:59.600
<v Speaker 2>All Right, your first car, the first car you actually bought,

149
00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:01.919
<v Speaker 2>Not the first car that mom and dad let you use,

150
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.279
<v Speaker 2>or maybe that your big brother a Big Sis lets

151
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:09.279
<v Speaker 2>you use. Your first car. Mine was a Dodge Dart.

152
00:09:10.000 --> 00:09:12.480
<v Speaker 2>It was a brown Dodge Dart. I thought it was

153
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:15.559
<v Speaker 2>a pretty cool car. It's kept it for many years.

154
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:18.159
<v Speaker 2>I think I paid about twenty five hundred dollars for it.

155
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:22.519
<v Speaker 2>While I was in law school. My aunt worked at

156
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:28.120
<v Speaker 2>a dealership and it was one of my favorite and

157
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:30.840
<v Speaker 2>so though I had many several favorite aunts, but this

158
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.720
<v Speaker 2>was aunt Mary, and she called me one day and said, hey,

159
00:09:34.200 --> 00:09:38.679
<v Speaker 2>we got a great We got to a Dodge Dart

160
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:41.799
<v Speaker 2>in here and I think you like it. And I

161
00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:43.559
<v Speaker 2>went in, looked at it, fell in love with the car.

162
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:48.039
<v Speaker 2>The car was great, It was a safe car, didn't

163
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:50.039
<v Speaker 2>cost a lot of money for gas. I had a

164
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:51.879
<v Speaker 2>couple of friends of mine who played in the Chicago

165
00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Bulls back in the day, and I remember the two

166
00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:59.039
<v Speaker 2>of them trying to get in the car. It was

167
00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:01.879
<v Speaker 2>like they sort of looked like pretzels. But you know,

168
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:04.039
<v Speaker 2>we got from the garden back to the hotel and

169
00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:07.039
<v Speaker 2>then a few beers. One of them is a guy

170
00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:10.759
<v Speaker 2>named those are who are basketball fans? Jack Marin played

171
00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:12.559
<v Speaker 2>with the Bulls a whole bunch of teams. He was

172
00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:15.759
<v Speaker 2>a first round draft choice of the old Baltimore Bullets,

173
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:18.200
<v Speaker 2>and Jack is a great guy, a great friend to

174
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:22.679
<v Speaker 2>this day. After playing in the NBA for about thirteen seasons,

175
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:25.679
<v Speaker 2>Jack went he was a duke guy. Of course, Duke

176
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:29.360
<v Speaker 2>always said great basketball players. And Jack went back to

177
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:32.200
<v Speaker 2>law school and practiced law for many years in North Carolina,

178
00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:34.720
<v Speaker 2>and I still talk to him. He's also very much

179
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:37.559
<v Speaker 2>involved in a program called Hope for the Warriors, but

180
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:39.000
<v Speaker 2>I remember I had him and I think it was

181
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:42.159
<v Speaker 2>Bob Love who was their center. And these guys, their

182
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:45.919
<v Speaker 2>knees were like up at their face. They said, don't work, guys,

183
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:49.519
<v Speaker 2>just relaxed, breathe out, don't breathe in, breathe out. We'll

184
00:10:49.519 --> 00:10:53.240
<v Speaker 2>get you back to the hotel. The Dodge Dart. Yeah,

185
00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:59.080
<v Speaker 2>there are a few few good trips, man. I remember

186
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:02.240
<v Speaker 2>one time picking up Phil Esposito in the car. Was

187
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:06.440
<v Speaker 2>playing for the Bruins, and Phil was you know, he

188
00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:08.840
<v Speaker 2>wasn't the size for basketball player, but you know, he

189
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:12.000
<v Speaker 2>was fine with it. A lot of fun Dodge Dart.

190
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:16.279
<v Speaker 2>I think it was like a seventy two or something

191
00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.440
<v Speaker 2>and I probably got it in seventy. It was. It

192
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:20.559
<v Speaker 2>was just one of those cars that was in great shape.

193
00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:23.720
<v Speaker 2>My aunt was at the dealership and she said, this

194
00:11:23.799 --> 00:11:26.200
<v Speaker 2>is a car you want. And Aunt Mary, God love

195
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:28.000
<v Speaker 2>you wherever you are now. You were right in that one.

196
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Let's go to Laurie and Idaho. Laurie, what was your

197
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:33.279
<v Speaker 2>first car and how much did you pay for it?

198
00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:36.120
<v Speaker 3>Well, first of all, I dated a guy in college.

199
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:38.120
<v Speaker 3>He had a powder blue Dodge Dart. But I think

200
00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:40.600
<v Speaker 3>it was a little bigger than your ear But a

201
00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:46.159
<v Speaker 3>nineteen eighty three VWGTI Rabbit style for eight thousand dollars.

202
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:47.559
<v Speaker 2>That's not bad.

203
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:52.840
<v Speaker 3>No, it was technically used, but only like by first

204
00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:59.000
<v Speaker 3>eight months. Really, how long did you keep that I

205
00:11:59.120 --> 00:11:59.600
<v Speaker 3>sold it?

206
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:02.960
<v Speaker 2>You might have sold it a.

207
00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:08.559
<v Speaker 3>Well, no, not not really, because it was there was

208
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:11.360
<v Speaker 3>a guy who really wanted it in twenty twenty one.

209
00:12:12.879 --> 00:12:15.440
<v Speaker 2>So ways, so you kept that car for how long?

210
00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:18.879
<v Speaker 3>Eighty three to twenty one?

211
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:22.320
<v Speaker 4>Whoa, WHOA?

212
00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:23.080
<v Speaker 2>WHOA?

213
00:12:23.159 --> 00:12:23.720
<v Speaker 5>What car?

214
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:26.799
<v Speaker 2>You kept that car for almost thirty years?

215
00:12:27.039 --> 00:12:27.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

216
00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:27.919
<v Speaker 4>I did it.

217
00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:33.840
<v Speaker 3>It ended up being the odometer cracked out. I think

218
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:36.679
<v Speaker 3>it was at least two hundred and fifty thousand at least.

219
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:38.399
<v Speaker 4>But and I just and it was.

220
00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:40.720
<v Speaker 3>It was my second car by that time. It was

221
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:41.919
<v Speaker 3>my two errands in town car.

222
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:43.480
<v Speaker 4>But I loved it. I wanted one.

223
00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:46.039
<v Speaker 3>A guy who worked for my dad had one, and

224
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:48.120
<v Speaker 3>I think his was a year earlier than mine. It

225
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:50.360
<v Speaker 3>was still the rabbit style, not the rounded style.

226
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay, And I got to jump a picture. I'm pulling

227

234
00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:18.320
<v Speaker 3>They only made it for a couple three years, and

235
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:21.039
<v Speaker 3>then they changed when Rabbit went away and they changed

236
00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:23.000
<v Speaker 3>to the Golf. They still had a GTI then, but

<v Speaker 3>standard transmission and it you know, there wasn't much that

260

271
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:54.720
<v Speaker 3>No way, it wasn't this, but it was the backseat.

272
00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:57.759
<v Speaker 3>It fit my dog, That's what mattered. And and I

273
00:14:57.879 --> 00:14:59.399
<v Speaker 3>just it was so hard to sell it, and I

274
00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:01.960
<v Speaker 3>really you didn't want to. But then the FedEx guy

275
00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:04.320
<v Speaker 3>in the area was at the neighbor's house, and the

276
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:07.559
<v Speaker 3>neighbor called me and said, uh, Phillips, guys, here, what stuff?

277
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:10.240
<v Speaker 3>You're selling that car? And I said no. But then

278
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:11.960
<v Speaker 3>I ended up where I had to move and I

279
00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:14.879
<v Speaker 3>couldn't take three cars with me. So he really loved them.

280
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:16.360
<v Speaker 3>He loved vw is the point that he had one

281
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:18.879
<v Speaker 3>of those horribly ugly pickup truck things.

282
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:22.639

<v Speaker 2>I'm sir, yeah, wow, what'd you pay for that car?

302
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:27.360
<v Speaker 2>Did you buy a new?

303
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:31.600
<v Speaker 4>No? It was used in uh. I was a junior

304
00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:34.960
<v Speaker 4>in high school at Dover Sherburn in seventy seven and

305
00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:40.440
<v Speaker 4>I paid eight hundred bucks for it, So that was yes,

306
00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:44.320
<v Speaker 4>and if only I have it now. And I learned

307
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:48.799
<v Speaker 4>to drive in my grandmother's nineteen seventy one Plymouth Scamp,

308
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:52.480
<v Speaker 4>which was Plymouth's version of the Dart back in the day.

309
00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:56.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I wasn't, though I loved the Dart. I remember

310
00:16:58.279 --> 00:17:01.559
<v Speaker 2>driving my Dart. I was living at that point in

311
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:06.240
<v Speaker 2>downtown Boston and at Longfellow Place, and one night coming

312
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:09.200
<v Speaker 2>back from WBZ was actually I remember remembers the Blizzard

313
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:13.000
<v Speaker 2>of seventy eight. A couple of weeks beforehand, there was

314
00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:15.599
<v Speaker 2>another big snowstorm that wasn't the Blizzard of seventy eight,

315
00:17:15.680 --> 00:17:19.519
<v Speaker 2>but it's a substantial snowstorm. And so I'm driving in

316
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:25.480
<v Speaker 2>down the ramp at night, midnight, coming back from working

317
00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:28.960
<v Speaker 2>on WBZ. And you know, the ramp that is right

318
00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:32.319
<v Speaker 2>after Clarendon Street is kind of underneath where you know

319
00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:38.599
<v Speaker 2>Berkeley Gess was like the burs Okay, I went down there,

320
00:17:39.279 --> 00:17:41.599
<v Speaker 2>hits a patch of ice because it had snowed, and

321
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:45.079
<v Speaker 2>then the snow had melted and it froze. As I'm

322
00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:49.039
<v Speaker 2>going down that lamp, I swear to god I did

323
00:17:49.039 --> 00:17:51.640
<v Speaker 2>a three sixty. There was nobody else in the road.

324
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:55.200
<v Speaker 2>I just went with it and it never touched either

325
00:17:55.519 --> 00:17:58.599
<v Speaker 2>either wall. I did a three sixty, and once I

326
00:17:58.720 --> 00:18:03.799
<v Speaker 2>was underneath into the tunnel, obviously it was wet, but

327
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:06.920
<v Speaker 2>I was able to regain control of the car drove

328
00:18:06.960 --> 00:18:12.640
<v Speaker 2>it home. Oh yeah, it was. I was just I

329
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:15.279
<v Speaker 2>was clipping along and I hit there must have been

330
00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:19.599
<v Speaker 2>some ice that melted, had gone down, refroze, boom, and

331
00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:21.359
<v Speaker 2>it's going and it's spinning on me. I'm saying, Oh,

332
00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:24.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna buy. I'm gonna buy the farm here, didn't

333
00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:27.039
<v Speaker 2>right through the tunnel, came out the other side. Everything

00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:34.039
<v Speaker 2>was perfect, insane. Absolutely well, I'll tell you, I ye.

389
00:21:27.839 --> 00:21:32.240
<v Speaker 8>the nostalgia. Thanks cracking me up thinking about this right now.

390
00:21:32.559 --> 00:21:36.039
<v Speaker 8>Mine was the nineteen seventy one Dodge Swinger.

391
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:38.480
<v Speaker 4>I paid one.

392
00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:44.119
<v Speaker 9>Hundred, one hundred and fifty while one hundred and fifty

393
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:46.519
<v Speaker 9>dollars And those were the days when you saw the

394
00:21:46.519 --> 00:21:49.000
<v Speaker 9>cars going around with bondo and rust.

395
00:21:49.680 --> 00:21:55.480
<v Speaker 8>Well, oh exactly, my car was yep. And I remember

396
00:21:55.599 --> 00:22:00.000
<v Speaker 8>buying tubs of it at the auto shop of Blonde

397
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:03.640
<v Speaker 8>and Do and Screen. And my poor, my poor dad

398
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:05.799
<v Speaker 8>like nearly had a heart attack when I brought it

399
00:22:05.880 --> 00:22:09.200
<v Speaker 8>home because you know, I asked, could I get a car?

400
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:12.839
<v Speaker 8>And he's like, yeah, sure, get a car, and he'd laugh,

401
00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:15.000
<v Speaker 8>you know, and keep it.

402
00:22:15.039 --> 00:22:20.000
<v Speaker 2>How long? How long did that Dodge Swingers?

403
00:22:20.559 --> 00:22:28.839
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, it lasted me almost four years, and I sure

404
00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:34.160
<v Speaker 8>did it that. The biggest thing was the day that

405
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:38.039
<v Speaker 8>I was I went to radio shack and bought an

406
00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:41.200
<v Speaker 8>FM converter because it only.

407
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:44.880
<v Speaker 4>Had a radio in it.

408
00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:54.039
<v Speaker 2>You're a she devil FM radio. We're still a bought.

409
00:22:53.880 --> 00:22:58.720
<v Speaker 8>Myself some cheap speakers and you can hear my car

410
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:02.559
<v Speaker 8>coming around the corner before you saw my my car,

411
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:08.920
<v Speaker 8>and uh, my dad was just like this thing isn't safe.

412
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:11.240
<v Speaker 8>I'm like, yeah, I got an inspection sticker. You know,

413
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:16.359
<v Speaker 8>it's like, yeah, that's all I needed. That and cardboard

414
00:23:16.400 --> 00:23:21.720
<v Speaker 8>because the floorboards were routed through and I have to

415
00:23:21.759 --> 00:23:22.720
<v Speaker 8>lift my feet up.

416
00:23:22.920 --> 00:23:24.920
<v Speaker 7>No car.

417
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Cardboard and duct tape, that's all you need.

418
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:35.599
<v Speaker 8>And I remember using a screwdriver to open up take

419
00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:38.359
<v Speaker 8>take the cover off the air filtered, open up the choke.

420
00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:41.720
<v Speaker 8>So that was a trick I learned with my brother.

421
00:23:43.480 --> 00:23:46.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, I would know idea. I would have no idea

422
00:23:46.720 --> 00:23:48.599
<v Speaker 2>what to do there you were. You were much more

423
00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:51.839
<v Speaker 2>adept at that sort of thing that I was. I'd

424
00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:54.559
<v Speaker 2>be okay with the cardboard and the duct tape. I

425
00:23:54.559 --> 00:23:56.119
<v Speaker 2>would have been able to accomplish that.

426
00:23:57.279 --> 00:23:57.759
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you.

427
00:23:57.799 --> 00:23:59.759
<v Speaker 8>The funniest thing was is when I pulled up in

428
00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:03.440
<v Speaker 8>front the insurance company to get the car insured. They

429
00:24:03.559 --> 00:24:06.160
<v Speaker 8>go in and the agent says to me, well, what color.

430
00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:06.319
<v Speaker 3>Is the car?

431
00:24:06.480 --> 00:24:06.759
<v Speaker 7>Donner?

432
00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:10.799
<v Speaker 8>I said, well, I'm really not sure. I mean, it's Bondo,

433
00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:14.759
<v Speaker 8>it's rust, it's primer. And he had to open up

434
00:24:14.759 --> 00:24:16.960
<v Speaker 8>the door to look on the inside to see what

435
00:24:17.039 --> 00:24:18.759
<v Speaker 8>color of the car actually was.

436
00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:19.920
<v Speaker 3>It was yellow.

437
00:24:21.079 --> 00:24:24.200
<v Speaker 2>That's a great story. And did you sell the car.

438
00:24:26.359 --> 00:24:26.799
<v Speaker 3>I drove?

439
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Did the cargo go directly to the junkyard?

440
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:30.880
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

441
00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:33.799
<v Speaker 8>I drove it until it died and I did cry.

442
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.000
<v Speaker 8>I loved I really loved that car. And you know,

443
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:41.440
<v Speaker 8>I was so excited to get that and it was

444
00:24:41.519 --> 00:24:42.960
<v Speaker 8>just like freedom.

445
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:43.400
<v Speaker 1>You know.

446
00:24:44.119 --> 00:24:47.279
<v Speaker 8>I had been just using my tense speed bike to

447
00:24:47.359 --> 00:24:49.799
<v Speaker 8>go back and forth to my jobs, and I was

448
00:24:49.880 --> 00:24:54.160
<v Speaker 8>so excited to finally have some wheels, and it was

449
00:24:54.400 --> 00:24:58.680
<v Speaker 8>just I know, I still think how much.

450
00:24:58.599 --> 00:25:02.839

464
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:46.440
<v Speaker 4>Oh yes, Hi.

465
00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:49.519
<v Speaker 7>I'm not too sure of the year. It was like

466
00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:54.039
<v Speaker 7>it yused fifty eight or fifty nine brought it in

467
00:25:54.200 --> 00:25:59.079
<v Speaker 7>like sixty six. Yeah, flag and a Volkswag and Bug.

468
00:25:59.440 --> 00:26:01.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, uh oh, those were great.

469
00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:07.359
<v Speaker 7>The Volkswagon Bog at the time, it had no gas gauge.

470
00:26:08.079 --> 00:26:10.119
<v Speaker 7>I mean, it's sorry how much gas is in the car.

471
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:16.799
<v Speaker 7>And I had a joke and it's standard ship and yeah,

472
00:26:16.799 --> 00:26:19.480
<v Speaker 7>I had to just came up with a system of

473
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:23.599
<v Speaker 7>taking down what the mileage was, and every two hundred

474
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:26.200
<v Speaker 7>miles where they needed to not I put gas in it.

475
00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:31.279
<v Speaker 2>And in many in many cases, I mean you you know,

476
00:26:31.720 --> 00:26:35.960
<v Speaker 2>you got great mileage of the Volkswagen Bug. I've driven

477
00:26:36.039 --> 00:26:41.279
<v Speaker 2>a Volkswagen Bug. A lady friend of mine had one

478
00:26:41.440 --> 00:26:44.359
<v Speaker 2>in Washington, d C. And I spent some time in Washington,

479
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:48.359
<v Speaker 2>so that was my my my transportation of choice. This

480
00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:49.039
<v Speaker 2>was well, the.

481
00:26:50.319 --> 00:26:53.599
<v Speaker 7>Thing is that people did at the time because it's

482
00:26:53.599 --> 00:26:57.720
<v Speaker 7>hard to find the car in a parking lot, so

483
00:26:57.720 --> 00:27:02.000
<v Speaker 7>they're gonna put the plastic flowers on the antenna so

484
00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:04.720
<v Speaker 7>you could find a big, pretty flower.

485
00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:07.759
<v Speaker 2>So well, most of the people who were driving those bugs.

486
00:27:08.039 --> 00:27:10.240
<v Speaker 2>Most people who were driving those bugs, they were walking

487
00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:12.160
<v Speaker 2>around with flowers in their hair. There was kind of

488
00:27:12.200 --> 00:27:13.319
<v Speaker 2>a hippie vehicle back.

489
00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:16.160
<v Speaker 7>I wasn't one of those. I just wanted to find

490
00:27:16.200 --> 00:27:16.880
<v Speaker 7>the car.

491
00:27:17.480 --> 00:27:20.839
<v Speaker 2>I got you. Now, we use tennis balls right on

492
00:27:20.880 --> 00:27:22.480
<v Speaker 2>the antenna if you have an antenna.

493
00:27:23.279 --> 00:27:26.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah. One thing I just wanted to pass on, if

494
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:29.839
<v Speaker 7>you would pass on to the gentlemen that the friendly

495
00:27:30.599 --> 00:27:33.759
<v Speaker 7>I sent places. The woman that called, she didn't.

496
00:27:34.880 --> 00:27:41.200
<v Speaker 4>She really wanted a line raspberry rooky, Yeah, ricky right.

497
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:45.359
<v Speaker 7>Right, Raby lime rooky, And it was Brigham's that that

498
00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:54.079
<v Speaker 7>was Brigham's real drink. Friend named that and to pass

499
00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:58.359
<v Speaker 7>it on to him. Yeah, because and they're the best.

500
00:27:58.680 --> 00:28:01.839
<v Speaker 7>You know, No, couldn't coffee it. I mean, they used

501
00:28:01.880 --> 00:28:05.480
<v Speaker 7>fresh lines, and I had I knew people to try

502
00:28:05.519 --> 00:28:07.759
<v Speaker 7>to make them on their own. They couldn't copy it.

503
00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:11.599
<v Speaker 7>They just couldn't get it just right. And I wish

504
00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:15.319
<v Speaker 7>I wish it would they could open up Righoms again because.

505
00:28:16.920 --> 00:28:19.880
<v Speaker 2>This was great best ice cream, no question about it.

506
00:28:19.880 --> 00:28:21.880
<v Speaker 7>Skill is I mean, the ice cream the thing. But

507
00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:25.920
<v Speaker 7>is that you lose the other things I had, you know,

508
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:33.160
<v Speaker 7>like their homemade bread, homemade butterscotch, you know, the Sundays

509
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:34.119
<v Speaker 7>and stuff like that.

510
00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:39.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking about ice cream now as opposed to having

511
00:28:39.240 --> 00:28:40.319
<v Speaker 2>a beer after the show.

512
00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:43.440
<v Speaker 4>I'm telling you, yeah, you probably have the beer.

513
00:28:43.759 --> 00:28:47.319
<v Speaker 7>But now I'm just no, but I'm just saying that,

514
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:52.200
<v Speaker 7>you know other places and I did today having to

515
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:55.880
<v Speaker 7>go to an Apple beefs and it was good.

516
00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:59.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, good for you. Yeah, so it was a.

517
00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Little thank so much. Thank you so much.

518
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:02.960
<v Speaker 8>Car.

519
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Please keep going, have a great weekend. Good night. Let

520
00:29:05.720 --> 00:29:08.720
<v Speaker 2>me go to my bell Dallas in Akron, Ohio. Dallas,

521
00:29:08.759 --> 00:29:11.160
<v Speaker 2>welcome back. I'd love to know what your first car was.

522
00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:18.599
<v Speaker 10>Yes, good evening to you, Dan, Hello Austin. My first

523
00:29:18.720 --> 00:29:23.039
<v Speaker 10>vehicle was a nineteen sixty one Buick Special. It was

524
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:28.079
<v Speaker 10>royal blue and I had just gotten out of high school.

525
00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:32.200
<v Speaker 10>Bought it in the summer and paid three hundred dollars

526
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:32.599
<v Speaker 10>for it.

527
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:35.880
<v Speaker 2>What year did you buy it? You didn't buy it

528
00:29:35.920 --> 00:29:39.680
<v Speaker 2>for three hundred dollars in sixty one.

529
00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:40.039
<v Speaker 10>I'll get my age way.

530
00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:43.920
<v Speaker 5>No, I bought it in sixty eight, summer sixty early

531
00:29:44.680 --> 00:29:46.480
<v Speaker 5>early summer sixty eight.

532
00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:49.480
<v Speaker 10>Oh, wow, Yeah.

533
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:52.400
<v Speaker 2>How long you keep it? How long did you keep it? Dallas? Oh?

534
00:29:52.640 --> 00:29:56.359
<v Speaker 10>I kept it for about three and a half four years.

535
00:29:57.799 --> 00:30:00.880
<v Speaker 2>Wow, and got good shirt. You said, how much did

536
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:02.680
<v Speaker 2>you pay for it? Did you pay for it? How much?

537
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:04.799
<v Speaker 10>Three hundred dollars.

538
00:30:05.240 --> 00:30:08.319
<v Speaker 2>That's not a bad deal. Yeah, even in nineteen sixty

539
00:30:08.319 --> 00:30:10.079
<v Speaker 2>eight dollars that was good. I don't know what that

540
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:13.160
<v Speaker 2>would be today. It probably would be like at least

541
00:30:13.200 --> 00:30:15.799
<v Speaker 2>five times as much with inflation, I'll bet you. But

542
00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:18.319
<v Speaker 2>still that's a good deal. Can you imagine getting a

543
00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:20.599
<v Speaker 2>nice car for fifteen hundred dollars today?

544
00:30:20.640 --> 00:30:25.319
<v Speaker 10>I don't think some No, no, I you know back

545
00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:32.359
<v Speaker 10>then I paid twenty nine nine cents nineteen cents to

546
00:30:32.680 --> 00:30:39.079
<v Speaker 10>thirty five nine ten since a gallon for gasoline.

547
00:30:39.559 --> 00:30:43.599
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I remember we had a place in Jamaica

548
00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:48.039
<v Speaker 2>plane it was called hat Offs h Atoff, and so

549
00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:50.279
<v Speaker 2>there was a little guy who was there, kind of

550
00:30:50.319 --> 00:30:53.720
<v Speaker 2>a cattoon character with his top hat off. I can

551
00:30:53.759 --> 00:30:58.559
<v Speaker 2>remembers as little as nineteen cents a gallon, and I

552
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:02.240
<v Speaker 2>had Wow. They must not have been been charging taxes

553
00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:07.400
<v Speaker 2>at that time. But now, with between state and federal

554
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:13.200
<v Speaker 2>taxes in Massachusetts we're probably paying somewhere about sixty eight

555
00:31:13.640 --> 00:31:16.559
<v Speaker 2>cents in taxes alone, and I'm sure in Ohio was

556
00:31:16.559 --> 00:31:21.400
<v Speaker 2>probably pretty similar or in taxes fedom with gasoline cost

557
00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:24.599
<v Speaker 2>us back then. So when you got rid of it,

558
00:31:24.640 --> 00:31:28.440
<v Speaker 2>was it a sentimental moment or oh.

559
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:30.079
<v Speaker 5>No, no, I was a glaud to get rid of

560
00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:33.400
<v Speaker 5>it because the transmission gave.

561
00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:35.400
<v Speaker 10>Me a lot of problems.

562
00:31:35.400 --> 00:31:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I got that you The time was right as

563
00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:42.799
<v Speaker 2>we would say, Hey, Dallas, thanks for checking in. I

564
00:31:42.880 --> 00:31:46.200
<v Speaker 2>really appreciate hearing from you. Again. It's uh, you know,

565

566
00:31:49.240 --> 00:31:50.799
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know if that means that you were

567
00:31:50.799 --> 00:31:53.119
<v Speaker 2>able to get a good, nice new set of wheels

568
00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:56.200
<v Speaker 2>on it or whatever. But oh, is that that's that's

569
00:31:56.599 --> 00:31:58.799
<v Speaker 2>that's the nickname for Akron, right, the tire.

570
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:01.640
<v Speaker 10>City, rubber capital of the world.

571
00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Right, But I've always heard some people refer to it

572
00:32:04.519 --> 00:32:05.880
<v Speaker 2>as the as the tire city.

573
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:10.599
<v Speaker 10>No, yeah, tire city, tire town, Oh.
