Speaker 1: It's night with Dan Ray. I'm telling you easy, Boston's
Speaker 1: news Radio.
Speaker 2: Welcome everybody. No, I'm not Dan, No, I'm not Bradley.
Speaker 2: I'm Morgan. I am scheduled to be here tonight filling
Speaker 2: in for Dan Ray on Night Side. I will be
Speaker 2: here tomorrow, and coincidentally, i'll be here next Thursday and Friday.
Speaker 2: I still do my own show on Saturday. And this
Speaker 2: is a busy night. I have a guest per hour,
Speaker 2: and I know a lot of you are gonna want
Speaker 2: to call in, at least for two of the guests.
Speaker 2: It's not all four of them, but you can only
Speaker 2: call once, so pick and choose wisely. Six seven, two, four,
Speaker 2: ten thirty eight eight, eight, nine to nine, ten thirty.
Speaker 2: And here's a man. And I've said this many many times,
Speaker 2: whether he's been present or not, the underlying the word,
Speaker 2: the best broadcaster we have in Boston. I'm so happy
Speaker 2: to say he is a good friend of mine, and
Speaker 2: I know a lot of you love him. Mister Jordan
Speaker 2: Rich Jordan, Hello.
Speaker 3: There, Well, hello Morgan and the blushing. I am as
Speaker 3: usual you you over you overstate all the stuff, but
Speaker 3: I appreciate that night's introduction and.
Speaker 2: You know you can go up and down the dial
Speaker 2: AM and FM. You have no equal. Your voice is
Speaker 2: such a fingerprint. And whatever you were telling us with
Speaker 2: the four or five features you do here in BZ commercials.
Speaker 2: I remember reading your book and talk talking about when
Speaker 2: you first started doing weather out of a closet way
Speaker 2: back when.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's where we end up. You know, we start
Speaker 3: in the closet, we end up in one, I think,
Speaker 3: in this crazy business. But actually no, it's great to
Speaker 3: be with you and appreciate the invitation. I'm here to
Speaker 3: tell you that I'm doing pretty well these days and
Speaker 3: fighting a good fight and a shout out to my
Speaker 3: fellow fighters at one ten Fitness in Rockland and to
Speaker 3: everybody else out there who's being resilient. That's what it's
Speaker 3: all about.
Speaker 2: And when you say fight in a way, you're telling
Speaker 2: the truth because for exercise you get into the squared circle,
Speaker 2: the boxing ring.
Speaker 3: I certainly do. I can't believe this ninety pound weekly
Speaker 3: in high school is now maybe a one hundred and
Speaker 3: thirty pound strong man with a good left to good
Speaker 3: right and about fifteen combinations that I can do pretty
Speaker 3: square off the top of my head. So love it.
Speaker 3: Absolutely love it. It's the best therapy for what I'm
Speaker 3: dealing with. And for those who don't know, I'm one
Speaker 3: of a million, if not more Americans who has Parkinson's disease.
Speaker 3: But it's not stopping me. I'm not slowing down. I'm
Speaker 3: working as much as I have, just taking a few
Speaker 3: extra steps here and there to rest and certainly exercise.
Speaker 3: You're right, and I.
Speaker 2: Know people look forward to your features. I said four
Speaker 2: or five? Which is it? How many features do you
Speaker 2: have here on BS Well?
Speaker 3: Run through. I'll run through the list. There are twenty
Speaker 3: actual pieces of production that are done every week. There's
Speaker 3: New England weekend events and so forth happening around Town's
Speaker 3: gone through corner food, wine, restaurants, and more. There's The
Speaker 3: Upside that's three that's a good news story of the week.
Speaker 3: And then there's now Streaming, which has reviews of movies
Speaker 3: and TV shows, and finally the book Club. And I
Speaker 3: think we're up to thirteen hundred and fifty books that
Speaker 3: I've reviewed. So I'm loving it. I'm loving it. I
Speaker 3: still enjoy it very very much.
Speaker 2: Well, tell you what. You're only here for an hour,
Speaker 2: so let me tell people what you and I have planned, sure,
Speaker 2: and we've planned this as far back as February or March,
Speaker 2: but this is our first chance to do it with
Speaker 2: all the besy audience participating. You've watched TV shows, and
Speaker 2: the problem with a syndicated show. You get to watch
Speaker 2: what when there are kids, what they look like when
Speaker 2: they were ead BD four five, six year old kids,
Speaker 2: and if the show runs for a number of seasons,
Speaker 2: we watch them age and TV loves to get cute
Speaker 2: young kids, but there's no way to predict they're going
Speaker 2: to keep their cuteness once they get into their early teens.
Speaker 2: Case in point, and I saw this on the TV
Speaker 2: not the most recent set of weeks, but a while ago.
Speaker 2: They show leve De Beaver in the morning eight to
Speaker 2: eight thirty eight thirty to nine show ran six. They
Speaker 2: show the last episode of the run eight to eight thirty,
Speaker 2: and then the first episode of the run eight thirty
Speaker 2: to nine, so you get to see goaky, gangly Jerry
Speaker 2: Mathers as a thirteen fourteen year old kid, and then
Speaker 2: he goes back to being six years old in the
Speaker 2: first season. There are so many examples of that, and
Speaker 2: you and I rattled off a few.
Speaker 3: Well, I'll just tell you that in my Hall of fame,
Speaker 3: and I'm sure you'll agree, yes, without question. And I
Speaker 3: know his brother will come up tonight. But Clint Howard
Speaker 3: ben and if you if you follow Clint Howards, he's
Speaker 3: a wonderful character actor, but he's not the cute little
Speaker 3: kid he was at one point. But that's that's life.
Speaker 3: I mean, we all sort of morphine transmognify.
Speaker 2: There's the good and the bad of it. Ron Howard
Speaker 2: Howard with a Dean Morgan, aged superbly, had young Opie
Speaker 2: to Richie Cunningham and beyond right, there was no gangliness,
Speaker 2: there was no that was Opie ten fifteen years ago, good.
Speaker 3: Greek Well, I took the liberty. If you don't mind
Speaker 3: of adding film to this, because there's so many examples.
Speaker 3: I mean, if you go back, if you go back,
Speaker 3: and you you of course I'm talking to you, so
Speaker 3: you know all this stuff by heart. But if you
Speaker 3: go back to the early early days, you got Jackie
Speaker 3: Coogan who was at the Coogan's Law and he became
Speaker 3: Uncle Fester on the and his family. Jackie Cooper another one.
Speaker 3: But then there are some started out and they were
Speaker 3: really exciting and had great roles like Hayley, Joel Osmond
Speaker 3: and his sixth sense, Jack Lloyd, who played Anakin Skywalker
Speaker 3: in The Phantom Menace. And perhaps the best example in
Speaker 3: the films might be Macauley Culkin, who was adorable thirty
Speaker 3: five years ago.
Speaker 2: And what happened to Hi him?
Speaker 3: Good grief, Well, whatever happened to him? His brother took
Speaker 3: up the reigns of acting and won an oscar so
Speaker 3: front of the family.
Speaker 2: And speaking of Haley Joe Osman, I don't know if
Speaker 2: she's his sister or a cousin, but she's been added
Speaker 2: to the spinoff from Young Sheldon Jeorgia Mandy's first marriage,
Speaker 2: and I think she does a great job and is
Speaker 2: a very attractive. Now she's portraying a woman who just
Speaker 2: turned thirty. I don't know if that's accurate. I mean,
Speaker 2: think of Jason Priestley back on Beverly Hills nine or
Speaker 2: two one oh, but she's gosh, don't good.
Speaker 3: Well, that's a topic for another night. I suppose would
Speaker 3: be strange siblings, not strange, but siblings. He didn't know
Speaker 3: where siblings shright business right? But I was thinking of people, uh,
Speaker 3: you know, in television like Joseph Gordon Levitt who was
Speaker 3: in the third Rock from the Sun, and he had
Speaker 3: that long, shaggy hair and he was kind of goofy looking,
Speaker 3: and then he morphed into a very good actor and
Speaker 3: a very handsome young man. So it goes both ways.
Speaker 3: You know, you get, you get your your decline and
Speaker 3: your upside. As they said upside, did you say, uh yeah,
Speaker 3: classic clapie.
Speaker 2: In let's take my break. I will break here a
Speaker 2: night's side. You want to call in and share your
Speaker 2: opinion of a child actor or actress who fits this
Speaker 2: format six one, seven, two, five, four ten thirty or
Speaker 2: eight eight, eight, nine, two, nine ten thirty. One of
Speaker 2: the regulars has already called in. Put this room for you.
Speaker 2: If you want to die rapidly, and if you just
Speaker 2: want to speak to your old friend Jordan, I can
Speaker 2: allow that. Give us a call here on Nightside. I'm
Speaker 2: Morgan filling in for Dan. Time and Temperature eight sixteen
Speaker 2: eighty five degrees.
Speaker 1: Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZ, Boston's news radio.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna run a little ledger here every time I
Speaker 2: say Dan is off tonight, I'm Morgan filling in. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna have the station pay me a nickel. I think
Speaker 2: I'll make like six seven dollars by the end of
Speaker 2: the evening tonight. But Jordan Riches joined me, and we
Speaker 2: have a subject, and I'm gonna give one more example.
Speaker 2: Then I'm gonna take Neil and Watertown, the TV show
Speaker 2: which ran twelve years but only eight with its star
Speaker 2: Charlie Sheen two and a half men.
Speaker 3: Oh yes, but Angus T.
Speaker 2: Jones, who played Jake, was kind of a cute little moppet. Yeah,
Speaker 2: when the show first started he gads what happened to him?
Speaker 2: By season seven, eight nine and.
Speaker 3: Beyond, Yeah, Mason rees syndrome. I think, oh, perfect example.
Speaker 3: I got one real quick, real quick before we go
Speaker 3: to the calls. I'm a big fan of Stranger Things.
Speaker 3: In the final season's coming up. I think this coming fall,
Speaker 3: and I don't know if you're familiar with it, but
Speaker 3: it's a bizarre sci fi kind of goofy thing involving kids.
Speaker 3: But there are two actors. One's an actor arrests actually,
Speaker 3: if you can still say that, Millie Bobby Brown, who
Speaker 3: plays the young girl with the special powers and all that,
Speaker 3: and she's adorable as a kid. She's now in her
Speaker 3: late teens, early twenties, and she's on Knockouts, She's on
Speaker 3: all the social media platforms. But the other guy has
Speaker 3: got an amazing name. I think it's Finn wolf Hard.
Speaker 3: Are you familiar with him? I am not, okay, I
Speaker 3: think he was in the New Ghostbusters movies. Anyway, Finn
Speaker 3: wolf Hard was a door with buck teeth. He's now
Speaker 3: as gangly as the monster on Stranger Things.
Speaker 2: Let's go to Watertown and speak with Neil, who was
Speaker 2: first tonight on night Side, Good Evening, Neil.
Speaker 4: Good Evening, Morgan and Good Evening, Jordan. I'm like struggling
Speaker 4: with my memory a little bit. But do you know
Speaker 4: the movie where Maurice Chevalier and I think her name
Speaker 4: is Hermiaique Gingle and Ree sings we met at nine
Speaker 4: and she says we met at eight, wasn't that, Gigi? Yes?
Speaker 4: And she says I was on time and you know
Speaker 4: you were late?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 4: I even so, I don't mind if you if either
Speaker 4: one of you is Harmiahnique Gingle for me, because I
Speaker 4: can just say something. I don't mind being corrected because
Speaker 4: I don't think I got the gist of it. But
Speaker 4: I might have a few deep I might be a
Speaker 4: few details of right, so the ones that came to mind.
Speaker 4: Natalie Wood, she was born in nineteen forty.
Speaker 2: I think, a very cute little girl, and she became
Speaker 2: a beautiful woman.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 4: Indeed, that was pick up on excuse me, pardon me,
Speaker 4: I'm thinking of pick up on South Street. And then
Speaker 4: Miracle on thirty fourth.
Speaker 3: Yes, Miracle of thirty fourth, right, right, right.
Speaker 4: Then eight years later she was in the Searchers by
Speaker 4: John Ford and she was kidnapped by the Indians and
Speaker 4: powerful movies, yes, and Jean Lucadard in France. It was
Speaker 4: probably the ideological opposite of john Ford. But the ends
Speaker 4: a long story. But when John Wayne picks her up
Speaker 4: in his arms and he says, let's go home, Debbie,
Speaker 4: Jean Lucadard, who was a critic at the time, said,
Speaker 4: we will, we forget all about our politics at a
Speaker 4: moment like that.
Speaker 2: And that was a political powder cake with the subject
Speaker 2: matter right, the subject matter of the American Indian and
Speaker 2: the plight they faced.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 4: And her sister is there, Warner.
Speaker 2: Would l a n A Wood.
Speaker 4: She played, She played the young Debbie and before the
Speaker 4: before she was kidnapped, and and but I saw her
Speaker 4: once on an art on an episode of Paladin, and
Speaker 4: they were gonna Jack Albertson was her father. He was
Speaker 4: a He was a shopkeeper and the Marion Celda's and
Speaker 4: very popular. After she she was running the school and
Speaker 4: they were going to burn down the school. But she
Speaker 4: was going to tell the truth anyway. And so that
Speaker 4: was Wanna Wood.
Speaker 2: Now, well, hold on, lonad Wood to me. One of
Speaker 2: her most memorable grown up scenes where she paid played
Speaker 2: plenty O'Toole in the James Bond movie Diamonds Forever.
Speaker 3: But of course yes she so she welcome.
Speaker 2: She she wore a very low cut evening gown at
Speaker 2: the crafts table that Bond walked up to. Yeah, she
Speaker 2: did thrown out of like a seventh story window.
Speaker 3: Right right. Your memory is very good, Neil, alright, all right,
Speaker 3: take care of about.
Speaker 2: Let's try to get one more on before we do
Speaker 2: news at the half hour, and and Drake it welcome.
Speaker 6: Hi Jordan Morgan. Hi there. Well this started out cute
Speaker 6: for a while until the young man went off to
Speaker 6: high school and college. You could take high school, but
Speaker 6: how about young Sheldon?
Speaker 2: Oh, you mean the actor I armitage.
Speaker 6: Well, I don't know what his name is, but he
Speaker 6: played a brainiac. He was very very smart.
Speaker 2: I loved that show. I loved that show, and I
Speaker 2: think they did a good job not making it sit
Speaker 2: comish like the the three camera sitcoms that are cookie cutter.
Speaker 6: Did you like to see him grow up through and
Speaker 6: not be so cute? You know, going to college and
Speaker 6: you can't grow up? I know, I know, I know
Speaker 6: they do. And now then they had a spin off
Speaker 6: where his big brother married, yeah, and all that stuff.
Speaker 2: George and Mandy's first wedding.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: And within the cont within the concept of young Sheldon,
Speaker 2: you knew the father was going to die while Sheldon
Speaker 2: was a teenager because they hearkened back to that from
Speaker 2: the Big Bang theory and knew Lance Barber, who played
Speaker 2: the father, wasn't going to be living through into the
Speaker 2: next series, although they've brought him back in a very
Speaker 2: creative way. Georgie sees his father's ghosts. Yeah, I think
Speaker 2: that's creative.
Speaker 3: So there is a ten to this episodic series, right, Yes,
Speaker 3: you have to follow the timeline right very much in.
Speaker 6: A Morgan sometime when you have Jordan back on, could
Speaker 6: we have an hour of books? Yes, Recommendations and people
Speaker 6: calling him their recommendations.
Speaker 2: And I don't know when i'll have him on. Let's
Speaker 2: just say I'm hoping it will be in the.
Speaker 3: Fall, definitely.
Speaker 2: Jordan has a busy schedule and I need to have
Speaker 2: a Dan Race shift so I can have Jordans on
Speaker 2: at eight because he goes to.
Speaker 3: Better Yes, I do. I do retire early, not retiring,
Speaker 3: but I retire early. And I am also a part
Speaker 3: time bookie, so we can make that happen.
Speaker 6: Okay, And the.
Speaker 2: Next time I have Jordans on, it'll be an hour
Speaker 2: on books. And you know you produced the segment by
Speaker 2: making this suggestion.
Speaker 6: Oh great, okay, all right, I'll read enough books this
Speaker 6: summer until a fall, and then I'll have some ideas
Speaker 6: about what you should read. Okay, And thank you for
Speaker 6: saying that. Bye bye, yeah, thank you.

Speaker 2: ten thirty eight, eight, eight, nine to nine, ten thirty.
Speaker 2: You know the subject matter Jordan and I are doing.
Speaker 2: I'll make this one real quick. He was a kid
Speaker 2: and I interviewed him on a number of occasions, as
Speaker 2: well as the man who played his father, the rifleman,
Speaker 2: Johnny Crawford, aged, oh well, yeah, and one of his
Speaker 2: best attributes he could cry on Q and the director's
Speaker 2: love to put him in a scene where he could
Speaker 2: just let the tears fall from his cheeks, and he told.
Speaker 3: Me it's very strong talent. Yeah, it's not.
Speaker 2: Easy to do. And he told me that's one of
Speaker 2: the reasons that he get hired.

Speaker 7: to walk again, and I'm losing my eyesight, but we're
Speaker 7: working on that.
Speaker 3: Other than that, Missus Lincoln, you have to laugh a
Speaker 3: little bait.
Speaker 7: Debbie Downer, huh, well, how are you feeling?
Speaker 3: And otherwise I'm feeling pretty good, pretty good. I work
Speaker 3: at it, but you know you, and you take it

Speaker 7: you and Nancy and the pussy Cat are doing all right.
Speaker 2: Yes we are. Nancy is right here.
Speaker 3: For those of you who don't know Nancy.
Speaker 2: She produces. You need a producer in studio. And obviously
Speaker 2: we've got Rob and Shane tonight and they were at
Speaker 2: BZ Central in Meto. And Nancy is sitting right here
Speaker 2: next to me and Gray. The cats around.
Speaker 3: Here somewhere, and the babies.
Speaker 2: I got to see them yesterday. Great son, Jordan, you'll
Speaker 2: I appreciate this. My son and his wife came up
Speaker 2: from South Carolina. Yes, they're spending three or four days here.
Speaker 2: They came on Tuesday. They flew in, got a rental car.
Speaker 2: We met at a Newton Eater recalled O'Hara's yesterday, and
Speaker 2: they're going to be spending some time in remarked with
Speaker 2: their friends. But I got to hold my grandson.
Speaker 3: Who is good for you, who will be a year.
Speaker 2: Old in September, and I got to play September two. Yes,
Speaker 2: and I got to play with my other grandson who's five.
Speaker 2: So the baby is named Wes, and my other grandson
Speaker 2: is Are you ready James James Morgan White.
Speaker 7: Oh that sounds sophisticated. Yes, yes, Jordan, you tell Andrew,
Speaker 7: I said, hi, And I hope the rest of your
Speaker 7: family's doing well and well before I get I'm gonna
Speaker 7: stay on the subject, and I'm not gonna take up
Speaker 7: too much more time because that gribes my behind when
Speaker 7: somebody talks and talks and talks and doesn't give anybody
Speaker 7: enough time. Anyway, the one that came to mind is first,
Speaker 7: when he was little, how cute he was, was ron Howard.
Speaker 7: He was Ronnie Howard back then, and he was he
Speaker 7: was a great actor, and he grew up to be
Speaker 7: richie and he always wanted to be a producer and
Speaker 7: a director on as long as he made his own movies.
Speaker 7: When he was kids. When he was a kid, I
Speaker 7: mean when he was kids. Now now that brother, his Clint,
Speaker 7: he was just as ugly as a mud fin.
Speaker 2: Yes, and Jordan's do you remember him the brother where
Speaker 2: he had the role of omnipotent alien in Star Trek.
Speaker 3: Yes, famous, famous role.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: And his voice was dubbed, of course, because he was
Speaker 3: only what is five years old or something? And yes, yes, great,
Speaker 3: great at class episode. No, I was I was thinking
Speaker 3: of somebody else. And I'll address this to both of you,
Speaker 3: and again, people of a certain age will understand. You
Speaker 3: remember who Larry Matthews was, right, Yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Richie.
Speaker 3: Rose, but Richie Patrick, and I looked him up. He's
Speaker 3: still around, he's in his late sixties. But I thought
Speaker 3: he was the most obnoxious kid on TV ever in
Speaker 3: the history of television. He was always complaining, whining, and
Speaker 3: I think that was obviously on purpose. He was playing
Speaker 3: the role, but he was. I didn't think he was
Speaker 3: cute then, and he definitely evolved from there.
Speaker 7: Well, that's good, that's good. I missed the Dick Van
Speaker 7: Dyke show.
Speaker 8: It.
Speaker 7: I don't watch anything but but Jeopardy and Game show
Speaker 7: Networks and a lot of reruns. I don't like the
Speaker 7: news shows. I think they stink.
Speaker 2: Right, and I watch faithfully if I am home a
Speaker 2: double Bob Barker prices right set of episodes on Buzzer
Speaker 2: three to four.
Speaker 7: We can't we can't get that here.
Speaker 2: Well, three to four in the afternoon and four to five,
Speaker 2: and you're looking at roughly nineteen eighty five eighty six episodes.
Speaker 2: That's my day. That is my day.
Speaker 3: My day is a little bit easier because of.
Speaker 7: Free white Hair Bob Barker or was it white Hair
Speaker 7: barb Barker.
Speaker 2: No, they haven't shown the white Hair bar Barker yet. Okay, Jordan,
Speaker 2: tell me about what you were about to say.
Speaker 3: No, I'm just going to say when it comes to
Speaker 3: watching things, I try to have I sort of have
Speaker 3: to watch a lot of things and skim through a
Speaker 3: lot of current things to do my features on the weekend. Sure,
Speaker 3: but I still like the old stuff every once in
Speaker 3: a while and you know, revert back to the classics.
Speaker 3: But there is a lot of good stuff on TV.
Speaker 3: You just got to know where to find It's listen
Speaker 3: on the weekends. I'll tell you what to watch.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 7: I'm addicted the Game Show Network.
Speaker 2: And do you. You don't get buzz or you just
Speaker 2: get Game show Network.
Speaker 7: No, just get game show Okay, all right, but I
Speaker 7: don't get a lot of the older ones. But I
Speaker 7: hope you had a happy birthday.

Speaker 9: No, you're you're you're on the right track. It was
