WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:01.399 It's nice eyes. 2 00:00:02.839 --> 00:00:06.000 I'm telling you mazy Boston's news radio. 3 00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:08.199 I want to thank my guest last hour, Sean Dahlph, 4 00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:11.960 space weather forecaster. I mean, I didn't even realize that 5 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:15.640 was really what you'd call space weather, but boy, he's 6 00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:19.600 a great guest. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Want to 7 00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:23.000 thank Nicole Davis for calling in. She was the best 8 00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:26.199 caller of the hour. Wanna thick her very much. She's 9 00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:28.960 a pro. She knows how to ask a question. And 10 00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:34.880 sometimes when I had like these these real experts, people 11 00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:38.079 somehow seem to want to make a point that they 12 00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:41.200 know a lot about this stuff too. It's tough to 13 00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:45.439 match your knowledge. If I had Bill Belichick on as 14 00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:48.560 a football coach, I think people would be calling me 15 00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:50.520 up and telling me, well, you know Bill and what 16 00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:52.479 I should be known. We should use more than a 17 00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:55.960 quick kick from the nineteen thirties or whatever. So I'm 18 00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:58.560 gonna grab Russ here in New York, who's a holdover 19 00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:01.159 from last Hour. I want to see what Russ has 20 00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:05.079 to think, what has to say. Obviously by doing that, 21 00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:07.239 I'll see what he has to think, and I'm going 22 00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:09.079 to I have a follow on topic to come out 23 00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:11.599 that I have coming up. Go ahead, Russ, I'll be 24 00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:12.079 real quick. 25 00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:12.359 Dan. 26 00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:14.799 Thank you for remembering our animal companions at the end 27 00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:17.159 of your show. It's very meaningful for a lot of us. 28 00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:20.400 And the two questions I would have asked Sean is 29 00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:24.319 the implications of the space whether does that imply that 30 00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:29.439 climate change isn't really as effective on us as it 31 00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:33.040 we're told it is. And about Cuba. Cuba just experienced 32 00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:36.239 this massive power failure and I was going to ask 33 00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:39.719 him if it was a geomatic, medically induced current that 34 00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:43.000 could have been involved in this And off topic, then 35 00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:45.439 will you be covering the Dan Penny case down here 36 00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:45.959 in New York? 37 00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:50.319 I do expect to, Yeah, I mean follow that case. Well, 38 00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:51.680 we're not going to cover it on a day to 39 00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:54.959 day basis, but certainly that's an interesting case. There's all 40 00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:58.879 sorts of political implications with that case. He's the fellow 41 00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:03.120 who is a used of killing the homeless gentleman on 42 00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:06.959 the subway, and it'll be interested to see what the 43 00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.400 witnesses say. They were unable they were going to go 44 00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:13.759 to the grand jury, and I believe that the DA 45 00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:18.960 down there decided to indict him directly, which seemed to 46 00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:21.120 me to be a little bit of a break in protocol. 47 00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:24.199 The police over scene felt that this guy, who has 48 00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:26.840 a pretty good record, had done nothing wrong and that 49 00:02:26.919 --> 00:02:30.560 he had actually tried to intervene. His intention was not 50 00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:35.400 to kill the individual who died, but was trying to 51 00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:41.000 keep him immobile because he had threatened other Unfamiliar with 52 00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:43.560 the case, obviously, but let's see what let's see what 53 00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:44.800 the facts provoked. 54 00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:48.520 Yeah, well, he didn't allegedly kill him. He killed him. 55 00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:53.319 The alleged is whether it was manslaughter or murder. I mean, actually, 56 00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:55.159 I don't know how much facts you get up there 57 00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:56.280 in Boston. 58 00:02:56.159 --> 00:02:59.719 But well, yeah, what I know is that supposedly the 59 00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:02.599 guy I was threatening other people on the subway, this 60 00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.280 guy stood up and I think confronted him and words 61 00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:08.800 led you know what. I don't have all the facts, 62 00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:12.280 and then he put him in some sort of a headlock, 63 00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:18.840 and the guy was died of assixiation. So if he 64 00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:22.960 was acting in the protection of others and was trying 65 00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:26.039 to immobilize him, that's one thing. And there should be 66 00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:29.439 witness testimony which people who were there would would be 67 00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:32.639 able to give testimony, which might lead to a proper conclusion. 68 00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:35.199 If his intention was to get up and say I'm 69 00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:36.599 just going to kill this guy because I don't like 70 00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:37.919 the way he looks, I don't know what he said. 71 00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:38.879 That's a different story. 72 00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:42.520 No, he jumped him from behind. Dan, he didn't confront him. 73 00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:45.919 This is a factor, and there were three people holding 74 00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:48.439 him down. I'll tell you what happened with Dan Penny 75 00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:51.400 is a lot of people contributed money, and the lawyers 76 00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:54.120 he got are running up the meter and instead of 77 00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:56.360 having him plea and get out in two or three years, 78 00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:58.280 they're going to make him go to twelve for their 79 00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:01.159 own purposes, and he's going to be found guilty ten 80 00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:04.400 years and he'll serve seven. That's where lawyers. 81 00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.439 Well, thank you for that prediction, Russ said. When we 82 00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:09.639 get around to talking about it, when the verdict comes in, 83 00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:12.800 I certainly hope that you'll call me back and tell 84 00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:16.160 me how accurate you are. I don't know as much 85 00:04:16.199 --> 00:04:19.839 about the case. I simply look at newspaper reports on it, 86 00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:22.040 look at the times, I look at the post. I 87 00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:25.920 wasn't there. Whether he confronted him, jumped in from behind, 88 00:04:25.959 --> 00:04:29.120 that's going to be witness testimony. So we'll see, you'll 89 00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:32.720 see which witnesses are tested. That's what defense counsel do. 90 00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:36.160 So anyway, we'll look forward to it. Thanks, ross appreciate it. 91 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:41.920 So what I intended to do in this hour was 92 00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:46.040 because we're going to talk about weather, which we did, 93 00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:50.279 and we talked about whether that is something that I 94 00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:54.600 don't even understand, Okay, how something that happens ninety three 95 00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:57.399 miles away. I have a much better appreciation of it 96 00:04:57.439 --> 00:05:01.639 now as a result of the conversation which sewn. There 97 00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:06.240 were certain weather facts that we all probably learned in school. 98 00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:10.959 That the Sun is ninety three million miles away on average, 99 00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:14.160 and that at sometimes it's closer to the Earth, sometimes 100 00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:16.800 it's a little further away from the Earth, and it 101 00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:20.519 stays in that, you know, we stay in that rotation 102 00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:26.000 around the Sun. If for some reason we were to 103 00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:29.519 start to rotate ten million miles closer, it would be 104 00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.319 the end of the earth. We'd burn up. If we 105 00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:36.439 rotated ten million miles further away, and we're, you know, 106 00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:39.319 in the range of one hundred and three million miles 107 00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:42.839 as opposed to ninety three, we would probably all freeze 108 00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:46.560 to death. But it's been like that for a long 109 00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:51.199 time apparently, and so the question I wanted to ask, 110 00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:58.360 is this putting aside your job, putting aside your family members, 111 00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:02.920 putting aside your friends and all of that. Is there 112 00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:08.439 anywhere in the world that you'd prefer to live than 113 00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:10.920 here in New England. We're in New England based programmers, 114 00:06:10.959 --> 00:06:13.439 I think you all know. And we do have some 115 00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:17.800 weather events here in New England. Every winter we may 116 00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:21.920 have a blizzard or two or three. Some winters are 117 00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:26.319 a lot of snow. Recent winters have been not much snow, 118 00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:32.399 but it seems that we do we get snow. We 119 00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:35.519 can get hurricanes up here. I don't think we get 120 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:38.920 hurricanes with the force of what the people in Florida 121 00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:42.720 have experienced with Helene or Milton in the last month 122 00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:45.720 or so. And then if you look at any other 123 00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:49.120 part of the country, if you live in California, you're 124 00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:54.800 concerned about earthquakes. If you live in the the middle 125 00:06:54.839 --> 00:07:00.120 of the country, you're concerned about tornadoes. Tornado season starts 126 00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:03.800 in the middle of the country. Obviously, if you're down 127 00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:08.000 south you can worry about or in Texas they have 128 00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:11.600 some real heat extremes. Do we have warm days up here? Yeah, absolutely, 129 00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:18.120 But from my perspective, even though I'm a native and 130 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.079 I've never really lived for an extended period of time 131 00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:26.000 in any other part of the country. Worked for WBZ, 132 00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:27.720 as they think all of you know for a long time, 133 00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:30.519 first in television and now in radio. I'd love to know, 134 00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.160 is there anyone out there. We have listeners who who 135 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:39.360 call regularly from Los Angeles, we have listeners who call 136 00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:48.079 regularly from Idaho, from Texas, from Arizona, Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, 137 00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:51.000 a little closer to home, Florida. Love to know if 138 00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:56.319 you had the ability to either move to one part 139 00:07:56.360 --> 00:07:59.839 of the country or have that country, that part of 140 00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:02.639 the country's weather brought to New England, I mean the good, 141 00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:05.560 the bad, and the ugly. Where would you like to live? 142 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.759 For me, it has to be New England. It has 143 00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:11.839 to be New England. I mean there are some ancillary 144 00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:15.839 reasons in that you have the the ocean in the summer, 145 00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:19.399 you have the mountains and skiing in the winter, you 146 00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:22.720 have the foliage in the fall, you have the rebirth 147 00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:25.800 of spring every year, which is my favorite time of 148 00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:29.680 the year, late April, early May into June. So I'd 149 00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:31.519 like to know is there a part of the world 150 00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:35.720 that you've lived in where the weather was more compatible 151 00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:39.840 than what we have in New England. I've been to Hawaii, 152 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:43.000 and I've been to Alaska. I was in Alaska in June, 153 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:46.159 so that wasn't probably, and I was in one of 154 00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:50.080 the more temperate parts of Alaska in the southwestern corner. 155 00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:54.399 Been to Hawaii, which I know is a wonderful place 156 00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.480 to live. But you've seen what happened to the fire 157 00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:00.559 that we covered a couple of you or a few 158 00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:03.600 a year or so ago. So I just want to 159 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:05.879 throw it open. Is there a part of the world 160 00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:09.080 that you are aware of that you'd prefer to live 161 00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:13.000 in with a focus on the weather, That's my question. 162 00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:17.200 I think we're very lucky here in New England, and 163 00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:22.200 I mean from Maine to south, from northern Maine, Fort 164 00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:27.759 Kent up on the border with Canada to southwest Connecticut 165 00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:30.960 to Greenwich and places the cost Cob, Connecticut right on 166 00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:33.639 the border with New York. I think we got I 167 00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:36.559 think we have in terms of just the cards, the 168 00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:39.440 weather cards that were dealt. Yeah, we have a few 169 00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:44.279 little little problems periodically, but I think overall, the weather 170 00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:46.360 here in New England is the best in the country. 171 00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:50.720 Feel free to agree or to disagree. Six one seven, two, five, 172 00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:53.120 four ten thirty six one seven nine three one ten 173 00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:58.240 thirty Where would you love to live if you or 174 00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:02.000 what weather would you prefer to have? The New England 175 00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:05.240 is probably the better way to ask the question. Some 176 00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:08.559 of you, I'm sure, would love to live in places 177 00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:11.679 like Colorado where you could ski a lot longer in 178 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:15.720 the year. Others might prefer to live in the Southwest 179 00:10:15.799 --> 00:10:19.039 and see very little rain. Let's open the phone lines up, 180 00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:21.440 love to get your reaction. Six one seven, two, four 181 00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:25.120 ten thirty six one seven nine. Nice out with Dan Ray. 182 00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.960 We're coming right back now back to Dan ray line 183 00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:30.480 from the Window World, Night Sides to you. Thanks on 184 00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:33.879 WBZ News Radio. All right, let me go to Mike 185 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:36.200 and framing him. Mike, welcome to Nightside.

Go right ahead, Mike. 189 00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:49.879 Yes, I always said, oh I'd like to move like 190 00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:52.279 a little more like south, like in the Carolinas, but 191 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:55.799 not but after what happens, yeah, one and everything, and 192 00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.080 because I don't know, but like just down there there's 193 00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:01.799 the people like I visited Florida past three as the 194 00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:05.960 people are the more nicer there. Here people are so 195 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:07.039 freaking rude. 196 00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:09.080 No ways, say where'd you grow up? Did you grow 197 00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:09.480 up here? 198 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:10.840 Yeah? 199 00:11:10.960 --> 00:11:12.360 Born and raised Framingham. 200 00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:16.559 Yeah really see, I think that's the reputation we have. 201 00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:21.080 But I really do believe that we're nicer people than 202 00:11:21.120 --> 00:11:23.840 our reputation. I mean, one of the things that you 203 00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:28.039 know down south, everybody is very kind and very sweet 204 00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:32.000 and you you get a lot of that. You welcome, 205 00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:35.399 love to meet you and all that, which is great 206 00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:38.279 because I think they're genuine about that. But then we 207 00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:42.399 get compared to them, this this reputation of we're a 208 00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:45.159 little frosty, we're a little cold. I don't think we're 209 00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:47.519 that cold. I think we're friendlier that people give us 210 00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:50.559 credit for. So it wasn't New England to buy into 211 00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:51.799 that stereotype. 212 00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:55.480 Why well, I've linched here in my life and it's 213 00:11:55.559 --> 00:11:59.279 like the well, well, my parents are from Puerto Rico 214 00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:02.840 first of all, so I always thought, oh Puerto Rico 215 00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:05.080 for like, you know, check it out and then come 216 00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:07.279 back here, and then you got hurricanes over there, so 217 00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:07.960 you can't even win. 218 00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:10.919 Let me tell you something. 219 00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:15.759 Well, Puerto Rico has been devastated by hurricane and Puerto 220 00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:19.559 Rico is you know, as you know, is not a 221 00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:24.919 US state, it's the US territory and they need support there. 222 00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:29.720 It's a very poor island. I mean, it has great possibilities, 223 00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:33.559 great possibilities, and seeing Juan is a thriving city. But 224 00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:36.559 if you get out on the countryside, a lot of 225 00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:40.200 poverty and they got they have great weather for the 226 00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:42.759 most part, except a couple of those storms that have 227 00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:45.440 gone through have been horrible. So when you when you 228 00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:47.840 crunch it all up, Mike, if you had a choice, 229 00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:50.879 if you had, you know, unlimited resources, and if you 230 00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:55.200 could either you can't bring the weather here. But if 231 00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:59.440 if you could keep your job and make a baby 232 00:12:59.679 --> 00:13:01.879 and it's living, where would you live. 233 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:08.639 Well, I like Baltimore. My brother was there in the 234 00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:12.080 Air Force, and I worked for Costco wholesale and there everywhere. 235 00:13:12.480 --> 00:13:14.720 Yeah, well, so yeah you could, I mean you could, 236 00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:17.919 You're you can. If you work for a big corporation, 237 00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:21.480 you know, one of the big Bobers tours or whatever, Yeah, 238 00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:24.639 you'd be fine. So you'd like to live in Maryland, 239 00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:28.159 So you're kind of getting away from the cold a 240 00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:29.759 little bit. Is that what I'm hearing saying? 241 00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:34.960 Yeah, because like, well here it's like jan February cold, March, 242 00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:38.159 March is cold, April's cold. It's like it wasn't like 243 00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:39.720 that when I was back in the eighties, when I 244 00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:41.440 was in high school, we had April vacation week. It 245 00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.679 was always like in s seventies, and it's now it's like, 246 00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:45.720 you know, I mean. 247 00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:47.919 Well, here's what I think. I think the weather in 248 00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:50.440 New England has shifted a little bit. I think that 249 00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.200 that we get a later fall now, in a later spring. 250 00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:55.360 Do you know what I'm saying. 251 00:13:55.480 --> 00:13:59.879 I mean, yeah, yeah, because but yeah, yeah, yeah, I 252 00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:03.679 don't know. I'm like, it wasn't like that, but lately, 253 00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:05.600 like I'm fifty seven and it's like, why is it 254 00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:09.039 like it takes like till freaking June to get warm 255 00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:10.320 and it still rains. 256 00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:13.879 Well, yeah, the one the trees, the trees still blossom 257 00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:16.720 at the at the end of April early May. I mean, 258 00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:19.480 that's that first week in May is like my favorite 259 00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:21.159 week of the year because the whole summer is in 260 00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:23.720 front of us. But yeah, yeah, I still wouldn't I 261 00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:27.559 wouldn't change New England for anything. In my opinion, I 262 00:14:27.679 --> 00:14:30.879 just I think we have You're gonna have some bad 263 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:33.360 weather wherever you are, but I think that our weather 264 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:36.159 pales in comparison to the bad weather that's hit other 265 00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:37.080 parts of the country. 266 00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:39.679 It is true though, I said that true.

We can't still figure it out. 306 00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:14.559 How how it hit western North Carolina. I mean, I 307 00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:16.759 have friends who have a mountain house up there. They 308 00:16:16.759 --> 00:16:19.679 go for the summer and it's gone just gone. 309 00:16:20.039 --> 00:16:26.639 Yeah, and yes, devastating. That's devastating to uh to realize 310 00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:29.679 that's a beautiful part of the country, you know, from 311 00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:31.279 a physical pot is. 312 00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:36.279 But as far as I know. But as you know, 313 00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:41.200 I'm a Philly guy and I love southeastern Pennsylvania. I 314 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:44.480 grew up in Allentown and lived outside of Philly for 315 00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:48.879 I don't know, thirty years before Diane and I retired 316 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:51.279 and we ended up here in South Carolina. 317 00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:57.639 But so you chose to you chose to move to 318 00:16:58.000 --> 00:17:00.080 South Carolina. Now, I'm sure that there might be some 319 00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:01.840 tax advantages there. 320 00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:05.839 There are tax advantages, but there's also grandchildren advantages. 321 00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:08.559 The grandchildren down there. 322 00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:11.880 Okay, so that's you are here, so you know, that's 323 00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:15.440 that's great. But watching them grow up in the whole bit, 324 00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:18.960 and as you know, I listened and call on occasionally, 325 00:17:19.880 --> 00:17:26.240 but southern Pennsylvania we get the change of seasons. We 326 00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.440 do get some snow every once in a while, every 327 00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:33.400 once in a while we'll get a blizzard. But overall, 328 00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:36.599 I would I would go back to the Philly area 329 00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:39.640 or Allentown. That's where I grew up, That's where all 330 00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:43.160 my I still stay in touch with my my high 331 00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:48.079 school buddies and college buddies. And my brother lives in Bethlehem. 332 00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:52.319 So it's you know that area. And then. 333 00:17:54.319 --> 00:17:59.440 From your memories, Okay, when does spring begin in that 334 00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:02.480 part of penn Sylvania. We really don't get warm weather 335 00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:06.839 here until consistently we get a warm day, but we 336 00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:10.480 don't get warm weather here until late April because there's 337 00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:13.559 a lot of Sox games to get played in cold weather. 338 00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:15.440 Earlier in the year, you can get a nice day. 339 00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:19.279 When when do you think you really spring has arrived in. 340 00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:25.440 Southern basically to start a baseball season. The end of March, 341 00:18:25.519 --> 00:18:30.480 beginning of April. And then remember in February we have 342 00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:33.000 Paksakhani sil out there. 343 00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:36.359 Oh yeah, that's one of the biggest scams in the world. 344 00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:41.000 As far as I'm concerned, I'd love to know what 345 00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:44.000 did they really? Is there an economic benefit to punk 346 00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:45.440 Satani Pennsylvania? 347 00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:48.839 Oh my, oh my god. People come from all over 348 00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:53.799 the world, just the seeds ground talk. Don't ask me 349 00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:55.799 why because to me it's erodent. 350 00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:59.279 P T. Barnum had it right, didn't he? 351 00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:01.000 Yeah? 352 00:19:01.200 --> 00:19:01.480 I know. 353 00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:05.119 The only thing I know about Punksatani Pennsylvania is there 354 00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:07.240 was there was a guy who was a shortstop for 355 00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:10.359 the Yankees and Orioles named Billy Hunter, and he was 356 00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:16.000 from Pennsylvania exactly. Yeah, never an All star, but the 357 00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:18.079 Major League baseball player. So you know, you gotta give 358 00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:20.160 give him his props there, that's for sure. 359 00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:24.039 Absolutely, it's it's like we give him our props. For 360 00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:27.160 the high school I went to, we had a guy 361 00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:31.319 who played football that named Recipled who was played for 362 00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:35.519 the Dolphins and he was a kicker. And then another 363 00:19:35.599 --> 00:19:38.359 guy was Andre Reid. He was from the other high 364 00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:39.440 school in Allentown. 365 00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:42.160 Oh yeah, he was a wide receiver for the Bills, 366 00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:47.759 right exactly. Yeah, great, great wide receiver. I think he could. 367 00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:51.720 Yeah, he unfortunately went to the Super Bowl four years 368 00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:52.839 in a row and never made it. 369 00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:56.200 Yeah, they got to the Super Bowl.
